The Life of Emile Zola Monologues


The biopic of the famous French muckraking writer and his involvement in fighting the injustice of the Dreyfus Affair.


Emile Zola Monologues

Life is tricky.

At this solemn moment, in the presence of this tribunal, which is the representative of human justice, before France, before the whole world, I swear that Dreyfus is innocent! By all that I have won, by all that I have written to spread the spirit of France, I swear that he is innocent. May all that melt away; may my name perish if Dreyfus be not innocent. He is innocent.

What does it matter if an individual is shattered - if only justice is resurrected?

Why didn't Picquart say anything?

You mean they KNEW and they ordered him to suppress the truth? Why,that's monstrous!

I shall tell the truth. Because if I did not, my nights would be haunted by the spectre of an innocent man expiating under the most frightful torture a crime he never committed.

Perhaps you know of something better for me to criticize?
