Holy crap: there appears to be a real-life French rival to Wes Anderson’s Team Zissou. Today’s Winner has a thriving career as an international maritime explorer/documentarian. The sad fact is that alternate internet sources indicate that our man was born well before 1970. But I can’t pass up honoring that kind of crazy ambition in action anyway.
