Good evening.
I'm Helen Mirren,
and you're watching "Documentary Now!", season 53.
What does one do when one loses one's spark, one's oomph,
one's joie de vivre?
In the year 2000, cinema icon Ida Leos
chronicled the search for her lost goosebumps
in the classic French documentary "Trouver Frisson."

Just north of Fort Wayne, Indiana.

Merci.

Ida: Where does your frissoncome from?
Butcher: I get that from my customers.
You know, that's really where my frissoncomes from.
Then, and I do enjoy kind of hacking stuff up.
Frisson!
