his own straightforward translations, were Du sang chez les taoïstes / 殺戒 /ShaJie and Les félons d’AnTchai 路客與刀客 LuKe Yu DaoKe.La Dialectique peut-elle casser des briques? / Can Dialectics Break Bricks? A first version with subtitles that repurposed or hijacked the meaning of the original film 唐手跆拳道; then, in 1973, a dubbed version supervised by Gérard Cohen extrapolating from Viénet's titles. In 2019, Keith Sanborn was invited by Viénet to refresh his earlier American subtitling of Can Dialectics Break Bricks? Ever since, Sanborn’s American version has been the basis for other subtitled versions, notably, the Spanish version by Carlos Prieto, screened at Ficunam in Mexico, Madrid, and elsewhere. 1974: Une petite culotte pour l’été (aka Les Filles de Kamaré), making use of a Japanese soft-porn film by Suzuki Noribumi, which Viénet hijacked via subtitles and to which he added a few hard-core inserts for a more pointed détournement.1976: Mao par lui-même / Mao by Mao / 毛澤東獨白. This biographical TV-length film was based on extensive archival research and had a voice-over composed entirely of Mao's own words. Fortuitously, the film was completed just as Mao died, on 9 September 1976, and it was immediately picked up by French TV. It was later the French entry in the short film competition at the 1977 Cannes Film Festival. The English voice-over of Mao by Mao was by Jack Belden, the noted journalist and writer on China. The Yiddish version had the voice of Moishe Zylberberg. And the Cantonese version had that of Li KamFung. Viénet himself provided the voice-over for the French version. All were recorded in the same year, 1976. 1977: Chinois, encore un effort pour être révolutionnaires / Peking Duck Soup /他們辦事，老百姓不放心). Again based on archival research and composed largely of found footage, this feature-length film competed in the Cannes Directors Fortnight in 1977. The French voice-over for Chinois encore un effort was by Jacques Pimpaneau, with Thierry Lévy providing the voice for the Li YiZhe sequence. Donald Nicholson-Smith was responsible for the English-language version, entitled Peking Duck Soup, and the voice-over was that of John Galbraith Simmons. Both Mao by Mao and Chinois encore un effort'' were produced by Hélène Vager, EdwinAline and Charles-Henri Favrod. Viénet worked with the same assistants on the two: Francis Deron (under a pseudonym since he had just been recruited by the AFP as a correspondent in BeiJing), and Wu XingMing or Ji QingMing
