1. CreateProcess(module_name=NULL, path_to_exe, ...), if module_name and path_to_exe are both present, the former overrides the latter.
2. If project uses unicode, then path name should use wide string (wchar_t ch[] = L"xxx"); better use muti-byte or no-set, once and for all.
3. If MFC is included In a Win32 console program, the CTRL-C, the consoles close button are all loss causes; use special event handlers (SetConsoleCtrlHandler(CtrlHandler, TRUE)).

 Win32 is a girl, hot and kranky.

1. Sound card (Intel ALC883) default volume was way too low and no entry to tune with through default GNOME volume control. 
• Cause: correct ALSA codec for the chip wasn't setup automatically.
• Solution: Install gnome-alsamixer; then in /etc/modprob.d/alsa-base, add "options snd-hda-intel model=auto"; reboot.
2. Video card (NVIDIA 9500GS), no restricted candidate driver, install envyy;

   1. Three types of pretties: 1) Aggressive: Those who actively and blatantly benefit from their physical attraction. 2) Defensive: Those who fear the outcome of 1) and play strangers. 3) Relaxed: Those who live with a sense of humor, realizing the ridicules of 1) and 2).
   2. The social infrastructure of pretties: From an early age, physical attraction draws on a mixture of massive social tensions based on sexual harassment,  jealousy, and self-disciplines.
   3. Type 3) is almost non-existence, so this species can be taken as a failure product-line of God.

A strange yet beautiful ending in typical french style. They never give you what you expect, and if it ended as everyone had hoped, then we'd all come away from the movie fuzzy inside and forget about it the next day. But here we are talking about it.

Max's fiance doesn't just turn up by pure coincidence at the airport. She's awaiting the tokyo flight back to france, which Max should be on. Max only has sudden interest in Lisa not because they were torn apart accidently before, but because he has cold feet about getting married. He gulps his drink even on the word "marriage". Hence lisa is not a long lost love that he's trying to find but rather an excuse for his cold feet.

After not finding her, and believing that she's probably some place else in the world, Alice becomes his excuse and he's living his life like he probably wants to , eg. not get married and settle down. Once he finds out about Lisa's actual wanting to visit him, it matters little, Alice is his fall back now.

The very end scene is riviting. Max and his fiance walking a slight distance apart from each other (most likely Max telling her why he wasn't in Toyko? - perhaps even mentioning Lisa), and then a hug so that all is well (in her books). The look over to Alice, who smiles in happiness for Max and dissapointment for herself just teases the audience into what happens next.

You say withnail69, that you want to find out what happens when he has to go back to Japan? Who cares. That is trivial. He'll probably just make up some other excuse. But that's not what is important.

The crecendo that was built up, along with a magnificent score by Peter Chase, cascades into a most remarkable, original, totally unpredictable and seemingly purposely unfinished ending.

Pure class that only French Film could ever do.

"For what it's worth, here's my take on the it as a bloke who's just seen the film tonight: Alice is not mad or bad, just desperate for affection; she spies on Max and Lisa and is instrumental in breaking them up. When she feels she's "lost" Max she sleeps with the decent but unlucky Lucien, then drops him like a hot potato when the chance to get Max back arises. When max finds her at the airport, she's triumphant and her "mission" is complete (in her weird world view)and she can "let him go" and fly off to Rome. How many of us have screwed up our chance of happiness because we can't help doing the exact opposite of what would assure it? When she sees Max with his fiance, she's vindicated in the view that her happiness is impossible and she therefore did the "right thing" in fooling Max and going to catch the flight to Rome after all. Max sees her, knows she's lying to him (cos she's about to fly away)but is in the arms of another woman (his fiance) so it looks bad..but, well..Alice was en route to fly to rome...
And he's got to sleep with Lisa (RIP), Alice (fantastic figure even if a bit loopy) and still gets a girl (still pretty good even though not in the same league as the other two) at the end. Well that's my take on it..I know the last bit is very bloke-ish but I guess it's what 99.9% of heterosexual blokes would be thinking! Loved it."
