Moulin


         We glimpse Moulin in a sucession of silhouettes ; an incident with some army recruits in Montpellier when he was aged Eighteen, an encounter with a brutish gatekeeper, a fragment of verse which is all that remains of a dinner with the depraved poet Max Jacob, some drawings scribbled on a cafe tablecloth during the occupation of Lyon.
