Hergé’s friend Jacques Van Melkebeke (who we’ve mentioned earlier in the past weeks) is shown at the flea market, wearing a brown suit. Now I’m curious…is he in the movie?
Look in the book and he appears in page 2, bottom strip, Center frame, he has a book in his hand and he is looking to his left at the commotion provoked by the Thompson.
The episode with the twins being arrested wrongly does not appear in the movie and I looked at the 9 minutes of the movie (the section in the market) and I could not see him anywhere. Although note that this market is pretty crowded and I could have missed him.
If somebody find him let us know.

How many of these do you guys already know? I can say/find harder trivia, but I figured a lot of people would not know these.
October 3rd, 2012 at 7:26 pmI knew some of these already. I have Hergés Complete Collection (or, I don’t know what it’s called in English), and they have a lot of facts in them. Maybe one or two of these was new though, like this one.
October 3rd, 2012 at 9:12 pmSo far I knew all of them except the one about Sacha Guitry.
Thanks and please continue.
