le clou [du spectacle, ou de la soirée, de la fête Explanation: showstopper: showstopper - clou d'un spectacle showstopper - nf magie showstopper - nm clou du spectacle showstopper - familier nm un point qui stoppe http://www.wordreference.com/enfr/showstopper [ EXPRESSION ] « Le clou (du spectacle, de la soirée, de la fête...) » [ SIGNIFICATION ] Le moment le plus intéressant, le plus intense. Ce qui retient l'attention. [ ORIGINE ] Il n'y a malheureusement pas de certitude sur l'origine de cette expression qui date de 1878. L'interprétation la plus communément admise vient de cette pointe métallique que l'on plante dans un mur[1], qui sert donc à y fixer quelque chose (aussi bien que, au figuré, il fixe l'attention du spectateur), un objet suspendu qui, dans le lieu où il se trouve, va attirer l'attention tout comme le clou de l'exposition va provoquer un attroupement autour de lui. [1] Action donnant parfois lieu à un magnifique spectacle de danse du scalp, avec les cris qui vont bien avec, lorsque le bricoleur du dimanche n'a pas tapé que sur la tête du clou avec son marteau. http://www.expressio.fr/expressions/le-clou-du-spectacle-de-... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 10 hrs (2007-11-03 05:23:05 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Noun 1.show-stopper - an act so striking or impressive that the show must be delayed until the audience quiets down showstopper, stopper routine, number, act, bit, turn - a short theatrical performance that is part of a longer program; "he did his act three times every evening"; "she had a catchy little routine"; "it was one of the best numbers he ever did" 2.show-stopper - something that is strikingly attractive or has great popular appeal; "she has a show-stopper of a smile"; "the brilliant orange flowers against the green foliage were a showstopper" showstopper attractiveness, attraction - the quality of arousing interest; being attractive or something that attracts; "her personality held a strange attraction for him" http://www.thefreedictionary.com/show-stopping a show-stopper a performance or part of a performance that is extremely good.
