What is this French Poem?

Factual Questions

Hi.

Remember that movie School Ties?

It was…ok…if you were a 15 year old girl when you saw it.

But I do remember that there was a poem in it that I liked, all in French. The boy who went crazy and dropped out of school had to recite it.

All I remember is

“Le vie est degoutant…”

I think that’s what he said.

I can’t elaborate but I sure do hope somebody knows what I am talkng about.

Didn’t see the filem, and don’t know the poem, but the first line translates:

“Life is disgusting…”

Appropriate for a teen angst film.

And since we’re on the sucject, it would be La Vie.
