00:00:27,918 --> 00:00:34,221
MY LIFE TO LIVE
A film in twelve scenes

2
00:02:30,573 --> 00:02:36,170
Lend yourself to others and give
yourself to yourself. Montaigne

3
00:02:40,317 --> 00:02:46,984
A café. Nana wants to leave Paul.
The pin-table

4
00:02:51,628 --> 00:02:53,220
Do you really like the guy?

5
00:02:55,165 --> 00:02:59,101
I don't know. I wonder what
I'm thinking about?

6
00:02:59,769 --> 00:03:03,102
Has he more money than me?
-What do you care?

7
00:03:13,416 --> 00:03:14,849
What's the matter?

8
00:03:15,318 --> 00:03:18,719
Nothing; I wanted to be very precise

9
00:03:19,589 --> 00:03:22,649
I didn't know the best way
to say it

10
00:03:23,293 --> 00:03:26,922
Or, rather, I did know,
but I don't any more

11
00:03:27,664 --> 00:03:31,498
Just when I should know, too.
Does it never happen to you?

12
00:03:32,335 --> 00:03:34,929
Don't you ever talk about anything
but yourself?

13
00:03:36,072 --> 00:03:37,198
You are horrible

14
00:03:39,642 --> 00:03:42,475
I'm not horrible, Nana, I'm sad

15
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,610
I'm not sad, Paul. I'm horrible

16
00:03:47,951 --> 00:03:50,351
Don't just parrot lines.
This isn't a stage

17
00:03:52,422 --> 00:03:56,654
You never do as I ask; you always
want me to do what you want

18
00:03:58,194 --> 00:04:00,355
Anyway, I'm fed up. I want to die

19
00:04:01,064 --> 00:04:01,962
I mean it

20
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,097
Parrot talk

21
00:04:06,669 --> 00:04:10,605
Loving you is exhausting.
I'm always having to beg

22
00:04:12,108 --> 00:04:16,067
I exist too. You say I'm cruel,
but it's you

23
00:04:28,057 --> 00:04:31,458
Why do you say that? It isn't true.
When? On Sunday evening?

24
00:04:33,096 --> 00:04:36,588
You know when... I begged you
to introduce me to that man

25
00:04:37,567 --> 00:04:39,398
You did it on purpose

26
00:04:40,069 --> 00:04:41,093
Yes, I did

27
00:04:41,838 --> 00:04:43,430
I despise you

28
00:04:46,075 --> 00:04:48,339
I'd just betray you again

29
00:04:49,512 --> 00:04:50,638
Don't say that

30
00:04:57,954 --> 00:05:03,358
I thought it was important to talk
to you, but I don't any more

31
00:05:04,661 --> 00:05:07,391
We might have got together again

32
00:05:07,697 --> 00:05:10,063
But the more we talk,
the less the words mean

33
00:05:12,235 --> 00:05:15,727
If I make it on the stage,
it won't be thanks to you

34
00:05:16,840 --> 00:05:18,705
Acting isn't everything

35
00:05:18,975 --> 00:05:20,704
You, too! Why do you say that?

36
00:05:21,377 --> 00:05:23,504
If it's what I want,
why should you mind?

37
00:05:24,347 --> 00:05:26,440
Someone may discover me one day

38
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:38,923
Well, don't give up

39
00:05:39,596 --> 00:05:45,193
I haven't given up music.
Not like your English lessons

40
00:05:46,135 --> 00:05:50,162
I'm not giving up. That guy is
going to take pictures of me

41
00:05:51,774 --> 00:05:53,639
Maybe I'll get into films

42
00:05:54,744 --> 00:05:56,143
That'll be the day

43
00:05:56,913 --> 00:05:58,380
You are horrible, Paul

44
00:06:07,590 --> 00:06:13,688
You really are... it's always
the same thing

45
00:06:14,931 --> 00:06:18,867
You say you love me, but you don't
think of me as someone special

46
00:06:20,904 --> 00:06:25,136
I hardly love you any more, but I
still think you're someone special

47
00:06:26,543 --> 00:06:29,910
Where does saying that get you?
I think everyone is the same

48
00:06:31,381 --> 00:06:33,906
You don't approve of my working?

49
00:06:34,684 --> 00:06:37,278
It's not really your scene

50
00:06:38,187 --> 00:06:41,020
You're leaving me because I'm poor

51
00:06:41,591 --> 00:06:42,785
When all's said and done, maybe

52
00:06:45,428 --> 00:06:47,692
Have you got the photos
you mentioned on the phone?

53
00:06:49,666 --> 00:06:52,965
I forgot about them. They'll be
ready at the end of the week

54
00:06:55,338 --> 00:06:57,932
Is he all right, eating well?

55
00:06:58,174 --> 00:07:00,699
He had earache, but the doctor
said it was nothing

56
00:07:01,778 --> 00:07:04,212
What's your job at Pathé-Marconi?

57
00:07:04,447 --> 00:07:05,812
I sell records

58
00:07:08,051 --> 00:07:09,746
Can you lend me 2,000 francs?

59
00:07:11,020 --> 00:07:12,749
Out of the question

60
00:07:14,624 --> 00:07:17,457
Your parents must be glad I've gone

61
00:07:18,361 --> 00:07:19,794
They liked you

62
00:07:19,963 --> 00:07:21,123
I bet!

63
00:07:23,566 --> 00:07:25,329
What's that look for?

64
00:07:33,743 --> 00:07:34,801
Nothing

65
00:07:35,979 --> 00:07:38,209
Let's not start quarreling again

66
00:07:39,949 --> 00:07:41,678
Shall we have a play?

67
00:07:48,124 --> 00:07:49,853
Got a coin? I only have one

68
00:08:13,282 --> 00:08:14,180
Go on, you start

69
00:08:36,205 --> 00:08:39,072
Those essays Dad's students write...

70
00:08:39,876 --> 00:08:40,843
What about them?

71
00:08:41,411 --> 00:08:45,541
He read us some wonderful efforts
at dinner yesterday

72
00:08:46,015 --> 00:08:49,781
They're just kids, they had to
describe their favorite animals

73
00:08:51,020 --> 00:08:53,352
One little girl of eight
chose a bird

74
00:08:54,891 --> 00:08:59,590
It went: "A bird is an animal
with an inside and an outside

75
00:08:59,896 --> 00:09:02,023
"Remove the outside,
there's the inside

76
00:09:02,165 --> 00:09:05,032
"Remove the inside and you see
the soul"

77
00:09:16,779 --> 00:09:23,685
The record shop. Two thousand francs.
Nana lives her life

78
00:09:33,496 --> 00:09:35,225
We're out of stock

79
00:09:41,137 --> 00:09:42,627
Judy Garland?

80
00:09:50,146 --> 00:09:54,207
Have you a guitar recording
by Roméo...

81
00:09:55,818 --> 00:09:58,013
What's his name? Raphaël Romero

82
00:10:04,927 --> 00:10:06,656
Raphaël Romero on guitar

83
00:10:07,163 --> 00:10:08,926
In the racks at the back

84
00:10:36,058 --> 00:10:37,719
Is Rita still away?

85
00:10:38,494 --> 00:10:40,359
I think she'll be back on Thursday

86
00:10:40,696 --> 00:10:42,459
She owes me 2,000 francs

87
00:10:47,370 --> 00:10:49,770
Lend me 2,000?
-No way; I'm broke

88
00:10:51,808 --> 00:10:54,140
Is it serious?
-No, it's OK

89
00:12:02,078 --> 00:12:03,807
That looks great

90
00:12:04,146 --> 00:12:07,206
The story's dumb, but it's
very well written

91
00:12:08,918 --> 00:12:13,719
He gazed at the turquoise,
star-laden sky, then turned to me

92
00:12:14,624 --> 00:12:18,924
"As one who lives intensely,
logically you..." I interrupted him

93
00:12:19,595 --> 00:12:22,758
"You attach too much importance
to logic"

94
00:12:23,065 --> 00:12:27,627
For a few seconds I was filled with
a bitter sense of triumph

95
00:12:28,404 --> 00:12:30,565
Forgotten, my broken heart

96
00:12:30,740 --> 00:12:35,700
Forgotten, too, the need to
put on a brave face

97
00:12:35,978 --> 00:12:39,243
Yes, a distinctly elegant way
of escaping this dilemma

98
00:12:48,925 --> 00:12:55,228
The concierge. Paul. The Passion of
Joan of Arc. A journalist

99
00:13:21,590 --> 00:13:23,057
Please give me my key

100
00:13:25,127 --> 00:13:26,287
Oh, all right

101
00:13:37,306 --> 00:13:38,705
Come on, give me that key!

102
00:13:55,091 --> 00:13:56,490
I have the pictures

103
00:14:05,568 --> 00:14:08,935
He doesn't look like me at all,
he looks more like you

104
00:14:10,473 --> 00:14:12,498
Coming to dinner?
-No

105
00:14:14,543 --> 00:14:16,135
I must go

106
00:14:16,746 --> 00:14:17,974
Come and eat

107
00:14:18,147 --> 00:14:21,708
I'm not hungry.
I want to see a film. Goodbye

108
00:14:58,821 --> 00:15:02,723
We are to prepare you for death

109
00:15:16,005 --> 00:15:18,405
So soon?

110
00:15:28,617 --> 00:15:30,278
What death?

111
00:15:35,224 --> 00:15:36,816
At the stake

112
00:15:49,839 --> 00:15:54,833
How can you still believe
you were sent by God?

113
00:15:59,748 --> 00:16:05,709
God knows where he leads us, but
we know the path of our journey

114
00:16:17,032 --> 00:16:19,000
Yes, I'm his child

115
00:16:29,178 --> 00:16:31,078
And the great victory?

116
00:16:38,287 --> 00:16:40,380
It will be my martyrdom

117
00:16:41,857 --> 00:16:43,188
And the deliverance?

118
00:16:53,002 --> 00:16:54,196
Death

119
00:17:09,485 --> 00:17:10,884
Death

120
00:17:20,496 --> 00:17:22,589
I've said goodbye

121
00:17:22,765 --> 00:17:24,562
I bought your movie ticket

122
00:17:24,733 --> 00:17:25,791
Too bad

123
00:17:39,949 --> 00:17:41,416
Didn't we have a date?

124
00:17:41,717 --> 00:17:44,652
I wondered if you would come

125
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:46,785
Why, am I late?

126
00:17:46,956 --> 00:17:50,448
A little, but that's not why
I wondered

127
00:17:51,093 --> 00:17:53,561
Usually I'm very punctual

128
00:17:55,297 --> 00:17:57,094
Eleven at night is very late

129
00:18:02,438 --> 00:18:04,633
I thought you'd forgotten, too

130
00:18:06,208 --> 00:18:07,607
What will you have?

131
00:18:07,910 --> 00:18:09,810
Any rolls left?

132
00:18:10,346 --> 00:18:11,677
A coffee, then

133
00:18:14,984 --> 00:18:17,282
Was that a boyfriend of yours?

134
00:18:18,053 --> 00:18:19,520
No, it was my brother

135
00:18:20,956 --> 00:18:22,389
Have you many brothers?

136
00:18:23,092 --> 00:18:25,151
Five brothers and three sisters

137
00:18:26,629 --> 00:18:28,722
You're surprised? It's a fact

138
00:18:31,934 --> 00:18:33,925
What's new since Wednesday?

139
00:18:34,937 --> 00:18:36,302
Nothing much

140
00:18:38,107 --> 00:18:40,132
Is that red car outside yours?

141
00:18:41,577 --> 00:18:43,807
What is it? A Jaguar?

142
00:18:44,046 --> 00:18:48,244
No, an Alfa Romeo.
Are you interested in cars?

143
00:18:48,617 --> 00:18:51,051
I don't know a thing about them

144
00:18:53,489 --> 00:18:56,652
When shall we do those photographs?

145
00:18:57,393 --> 00:19:00,556
Tell me, I told you I was willing

146
00:19:01,563 --> 00:19:03,463
I'm only free on Sundays

147
00:19:05,067 --> 00:19:07,365
I'm off to London on Sunday

148
00:19:08,070 --> 00:19:09,560
Well then, I don't know

149
00:19:12,608 --> 00:19:15,543
How about now? Are you tired?

150
00:19:16,912 --> 00:19:20,211
If I say no, you won't think
I'm awful?

151
00:19:20,582 --> 00:19:22,243
No, not at all

152
00:19:24,586 --> 00:19:27,885
Do you really think I could
get into films?

153
00:19:28,057 --> 00:19:31,686
I think so. Look, I've brought you
a composite sheet

154
00:19:42,204 --> 00:19:44,195
I'd like to do something like that

155
00:19:46,809 --> 00:19:48,174
What's it for?

156
00:19:48,677 --> 00:19:51,271
You send them out to people
in films

157
00:19:52,614 --> 00:19:54,946
and a few days later
maybe they phone you

158
00:19:58,287 --> 00:20:00,278
I'm a bit shy about undressing

159
00:20:01,023 --> 00:20:03,287
It's nothing much, you know

160
00:20:05,894 --> 00:20:08,419
Can you lend me 2,000 francs?

161
00:20:08,764 --> 00:20:10,755
I would, but I haven't got it

162
00:20:12,935 --> 00:20:14,300
Come on, I'm tired

163
00:20:19,842 --> 00:20:21,742
What about my pictures?

164
00:20:22,311 --> 00:20:23,573
You'll stay with me, then?

165
00:20:40,295 --> 00:20:47,827
The police. Nana is questioned

166
00:21:12,327 --> 00:21:17,196
Born April 15th, 1940,
at Flexburg, Moselle

167
00:21:17,466 --> 00:21:19,866
No fixed address. Is that right?

168
00:21:22,504 --> 00:21:24,028
Well, what happened?

169
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,266
Well, I was walking down
the street and

170
00:21:29,077 --> 00:21:31,511
I saw a woman buying a magazine

171
00:21:32,314 --> 00:21:36,808
Well, then... she took some money
out of her bag

172
00:21:38,821 --> 00:21:41,517
She didn't notice she'd dropped
1,000 francs

173
00:21:43,058 --> 00:21:48,360
So then... I pretended to buy
a magazine, too

174
00:21:49,097 --> 00:21:51,793
and I put my foot on her
1,000 francs

175
00:21:54,636 --> 00:21:57,332
She left and...

176
00:22:03,779 --> 00:22:05,337
And she noticed?

177
00:22:17,392 --> 00:22:19,223
She came back towards me and

178
00:22:20,696 --> 00:22:23,290
she stared into my eyes
for a long time

179
00:22:25,267 --> 00:22:29,226
So then I gave her back the money

180
00:22:38,146 --> 00:22:40,011
Then why did she bring this charge?

181
00:22:40,849 --> 00:22:44,080
I don't know. I think it was
very mean of her

182
00:22:53,462 --> 00:22:55,692
Have you no one to go to in Paris?

183
00:22:57,432 --> 00:22:59,127
Friends, sometimes

184
00:23:00,569 --> 00:23:01,797
Boys?

185
00:23:05,307 --> 00:23:06,467
Sometimes

186
00:23:10,913 --> 00:23:13,279
Why not ask for an advance?

187
00:23:14,816 --> 00:23:16,784
I have already, too often

188
00:23:20,055 --> 00:23:21,750
What are you going to do?

189
00:23:22,824 --> 00:23:25,349
I don't know... I...

190
00:23:27,496 --> 00:23:28,622
I... is someone else

191
00:23:35,003 --> 00:23:41,772
The boulevards. The first man.
The room

192
00:24:48,176 --> 00:24:48,835
How about it?

193
00:25:01,556 --> 00:25:02,545
Is it here?

194
00:25:04,226 --> 00:25:05,386
You've been here before?

195
00:25:24,980 --> 00:25:26,140
Anyone there?

196
00:25:26,748 --> 00:25:28,579
Room 27 or 28?

197
00:25:31,153 --> 00:25:32,313
Room 27

198
00:26:47,028 --> 00:26:48,325
Smoke?

199
00:26:54,970 --> 00:26:56,198
There's never an ashtray

200
00:27:12,888 --> 00:27:13,912
How much do you want?

201
00:27:16,391 --> 00:27:18,655
I don't know, it's up to you

202
00:27:21,997 --> 00:27:23,396
I don't know

203
00:27:25,367 --> 00:27:26,664
Four thousand francs?

204
00:27:44,986 --> 00:27:46,044
You owe me 1,000

205
00:27:46,955 --> 00:27:48,217
I have no change

206
00:27:49,825 --> 00:27:51,486
Never mind, keep it

207
00:27:56,431 --> 00:27:58,023
Take everything off, though

208
00:28:07,809 --> 00:28:08,901
Why not on the mouth?

209
00:28:20,522 --> 00:28:22,956
Meeting Yvette.
A café in the suburbs

210
00:28:23,124 --> 00:28:27,083
Raoul. Gunshots in the street

211
00:28:43,445 --> 00:28:44,912
Yvette, how are you?

212
00:28:45,580 --> 00:28:47,775
I hardly recognized you

213
00:28:48,650 --> 00:28:50,140
How are you?
-And you?

214
00:28:50,318 --> 00:28:51,808
I'm getting by

215
00:28:51,987 --> 00:28:53,750
So am l.
-Good for you

216
00:28:53,922 --> 00:28:56,220
Why?
-I thought that...

217
00:28:57,325 --> 00:28:59,816
Why are you here? To dance?

218
00:29:01,696 --> 00:29:03,163
Shall we have a drink?

219
00:29:05,667 --> 00:29:07,066
How's Raymond?

220
00:29:08,870 --> 00:29:10,565
I'll tell you all about it

221
00:29:10,805 --> 00:29:12,033
What happened?

222
00:29:13,441 --> 00:29:14,874
Life's so hard

223
00:29:15,477 --> 00:29:19,937
I'd like to get away,
escape to the tropics

224
00:29:20,749 --> 00:29:22,239
Escape's a pipe dream

225
00:29:23,451 --> 00:29:24,577
That's life

226
00:29:46,541 --> 00:29:48,236
I'll be back in a minute

227
00:30:06,795 --> 00:30:07,989
Well, tell me

228
00:30:09,030 --> 00:30:10,657
One evening, Raymond

229
00:30:12,934 --> 00:30:16,597
came home with railway tickets
to Brest

230
00:30:17,472 --> 00:30:20,600
He said he had a job,
so we all moved

231
00:30:21,142 --> 00:30:23,838
and went to live in a hotel
by the harbor

232
00:30:27,082 --> 00:30:29,277
I saw nothing of him

233
00:30:30,352 --> 00:30:31,842
He was "working"

234
00:30:32,487 --> 00:30:35,513
I'd take the children out,
buy them ice cream

235
00:30:37,158 --> 00:30:39,353
I worried

236
00:30:39,561 --> 00:30:43,190
because I couldn't figure
how he earned his money

237
00:30:43,932 --> 00:30:48,028
One evening, after three weeks

238
00:30:49,304 --> 00:30:51,169
he just never came back

239
00:30:52,107 --> 00:30:54,473
I had to manage on my own

240
00:30:55,977 --> 00:31:00,004
with the children my mother-in-law
didn't want to look after

241
00:31:01,583 --> 00:31:06,350
Gradually, I became a prostitute;
it was easier

242
00:31:09,457 --> 00:31:15,555
Then, two years later I went
to the movies one evening

243
00:31:16,231 --> 00:31:20,395
and saw him acting
in an American film

244
00:31:22,103 --> 00:31:23,695
And now?

245
00:31:23,872 --> 00:31:25,533
Everything's fine

246
00:31:32,547 --> 00:31:33,707
But not much fun

247
00:31:33,915 --> 00:31:36,907
It's depressing,
but that's not my fault

248
00:31:41,356 --> 00:31:45,087
I think we're always responsible
for our actions. We're free

249
00:31:46,194 --> 00:31:48,560
I raise my hand - I'm responsible

250
00:31:50,098 --> 00:31:53,295
I turn my head - I'm responsible

251
00:31:55,303 --> 00:31:58,500
I am unhappy - I'm responsible

252
00:32:00,475 --> 00:32:03,069
I smoke - I'm responsible

253
00:32:04,779 --> 00:32:07,907
I shut my eyes - I'm responsible

254
00:32:11,119 --> 00:32:13,815
I forget I'm responsible, but I am

255
00:32:15,757 --> 00:32:18,521
I told you there's no escape

256
00:32:19,394 --> 00:32:21,191
Everything is good

257
00:32:22,730 --> 00:32:25,460
You only have to take an interest
in things

258
00:32:29,104 --> 00:32:33,268
After all, things are what they are

259
00:32:34,375 --> 00:32:36,570
A message is a message

260
00:32:37,979 --> 00:32:39,606
Plates are plates

261
00:32:40,048 --> 00:32:41,481
Men are men

262
00:32:42,617 --> 00:32:45,609
And life is life

263
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:57,462
The boy I greeted wants to meet you.
Do you mind?

264
00:32:57,999 --> 00:32:59,193
I don't mind

265
00:33:17,552 --> 00:33:24,048
She's no film star,
this baby of mine

266
00:33:24,626 --> 00:33:30,656
She works on the factory
assembly line

267
00:33:31,766 --> 00:33:38,433
We live in one room down
by the railway track

268
00:33:39,073 --> 00:33:45,740
With a lovely view of
the warehouse out back

269
00:33:46,614 --> 00:33:52,746
No Riviera for us on our holidays

270
00:33:53,488 --> 00:33:59,586
No family with a fond Daddy
who plays

271
00:34:00,929 --> 00:34:07,732
But the light that shines
in my baby's eyes

272
00:34:08,203 --> 00:34:14,472
Is more to me than the stars
in the sky

273
00:34:15,510 --> 00:34:22,348
And when the rest of the town
starts to doze

274
00:34:22,850 --> 00:34:28,618
The late evening sun
in our window glows

275
00:34:30,124 --> 00:34:36,620
We whisper in the secrecy
of our own four walls

276
00:34:37,432 --> 00:34:43,803
And make love together
as darkness falls

277
00:34:52,180 --> 00:34:53,875
Is she a lady or a tramp?

278
00:34:57,051 --> 00:35:01,750
Insult her. If she's a tramp, she'll
get angry; if a lady, she'll smile

279
00:35:16,137 --> 00:35:17,263
We'll see

280
00:35:26,447 --> 00:35:28,210
Are you a friend of Yvette's?

281
00:35:30,785 --> 00:35:33,253
I already know you

282
00:35:33,821 --> 00:35:36,221
You don't.
-It was three months ago

283
00:35:37,692 --> 00:35:41,628
Boulevard Saint-Germain,
looking at photos

284
00:35:42,196 --> 00:35:43,424
That's true

285
00:35:44,465 --> 00:35:47,866
Why did you deny it?
You parrot anything

286
00:35:49,437 --> 00:35:53,498
You're ridiculous. Why are you
looking at me like that?

287
00:35:55,009 --> 00:35:58,445
You look stupid, and your hair
looks awful

288
00:36:04,786 --> 00:36:06,617
Wait, I've got something
to tell you

289
00:36:50,331 --> 00:36:51,389
My eyes

290
00:36:59,741 --> 00:37:07,443
The letter. Raoul again.
The Champs Elysées

291
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:52,953
Dear Madame, a friend who worked
for you gave me your address

292
00:38:29,063 --> 00:38:36,765
I would like to come
and work for you

293
00:38:52,253 --> 00:38:56,155
I am 22

294
00:39:11,105 --> 00:39:16,941
I think I am pretty

295
00:39:23,851 --> 00:39:28,379
My height is...

296
00:40:01,022 --> 00:40:12,092
My hair is short

297
00:40:30,318 --> 00:40:37,417
but grows very fast

298
00:40:51,172 --> 00:40:59,375
I enclose a photo and...

299
00:41:03,818 --> 00:41:05,285
So it's you?

300
00:41:07,855 --> 00:41:09,345
The classic letter

301
00:41:11,926 --> 00:41:13,188
Yes, it's me

302
00:41:15,730 --> 00:41:17,561
How did you find me?

303
00:41:18,165 --> 00:41:23,967
I followed you. I was in my car
and I saw you come in here

304
00:41:25,106 --> 00:41:27,506
You've got nerve

305
00:41:27,842 --> 00:41:30,367
No, you are very beautiful

306
00:41:39,820 --> 00:41:41,811
You disappeared fast the other day

307
00:41:42,356 --> 00:41:43,414
When was that?

308
00:41:44,258 --> 00:41:48,627
When the crook was shot;
you just vanished

309
00:41:49,864 --> 00:41:55,530
I don't think they were crooks,
it was some political stuff

310
00:41:57,438 --> 00:41:59,429
Oh, well...

311
00:42:00,408 --> 00:42:03,571
In any case, I didn't mean that
you weren't brave

312
00:42:04,879 --> 00:42:06,710
I was just making conversation

313
00:42:19,927 --> 00:42:21,554
What do you think of me?

314
00:42:27,301 --> 00:42:29,428
I think you are very good

315
00:42:32,506 --> 00:42:36,636
You have great goodness in your eyes

316
00:42:37,812 --> 00:42:42,875
I see, I didn't understand;
it's a funny thing to say

317
00:42:43,451 --> 00:42:44,748
Why?

318
00:42:52,693 --> 00:42:58,654
I wasn't expecting a Catholic answer.
What I meant was:

319
00:42:58,933 --> 00:43:01,731
Do you place me in a special
category of women?

320
00:43:10,644 --> 00:43:12,271
Do you like being special?

321
00:43:14,915 --> 00:43:16,143
Why?

322
00:43:17,451 --> 00:43:18,748
No reason

323
00:43:19,954 --> 00:43:22,184
For me, there are
three types of girls

324
00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:29,352
Some have one expression,
some have two, some have three

325
00:43:37,304 --> 00:43:39,568
Is the address from Yvette?

326
00:43:46,714 --> 00:43:48,614
Are you serious?

327
00:43:48,983 --> 00:43:49,950
Why?

328
00:43:51,886 --> 00:43:53,786
I want to earn more money

329
00:43:55,389 --> 00:43:58,017
I can help you earn even more here

330
00:43:58,325 --> 00:44:00,293
Really? I'm willing

331
00:44:14,041 --> 00:44:16,908
Why haven't you tried to get
into films?

332
00:44:17,678 --> 00:44:22,047
I did. Two years ago, I wanted
to make it on the stage

333
00:44:23,751 --> 00:44:26,447
I was in Pacifico
at the Châtelet

334
00:44:27,555 --> 00:44:30,251
Once I was in a film with
Eddie Constantine

335
00:44:31,892 --> 00:44:34,884
I'm telling you my life story.
How awful

336
00:44:37,698 --> 00:44:40,531
I'm a friend

337
00:44:42,937 --> 00:44:46,236
Give me a smile.
-I don't feel like it

338
00:45:26,413 --> 00:45:28,040
Shall I come with you?

339
00:45:38,292 --> 00:45:39,782
When do I start?

340
00:45:40,828 --> 00:45:44,889
When the city lights go up, the
streetwalker's endless beat begins

341
00:45:52,539 --> 00:45:59,001
Afternoons. Money. Sinks.
Pleasure. Hotels

342
00:46:01,415 --> 00:46:03,246
What is the routine?

343
00:46:03,584 --> 00:46:07,020
The prostitute trades
on her charms

344
00:46:07,187 --> 00:46:11,146
to build up a good clientele and
establish lucrative conditions

345
00:46:14,328 --> 00:46:16,558
Must she be beautiful?

346
00:46:16,830 --> 00:46:21,267
No, although beauty is an important
factor in a prostitute's career

347
00:46:21,535 --> 00:46:26,666
It attracts the attention of
the pimp

348
00:46:27,074 --> 00:46:30,874
since physical allure can be
an immense source of profit

349
00:46:32,112 --> 00:46:34,103
Must she register?

350
00:46:34,782 --> 00:46:37,580
Since the law of April 13th, 1946

351
00:46:37,818 --> 00:46:45,657
prostitutes are subject to
medical but not police supervision

352
00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:51,330
The 1946 law and decree 2,253
of November 5th, 1947

353
00:46:51,498 --> 00:46:56,401
established the National Sanitary
Register for all women

354
00:46:56,570 --> 00:47:00,267
shown by conclusive evidence

355
00:47:00,441 --> 00:47:02,568
to be leading a life of
prostitution

356
00:47:03,711 --> 00:47:05,576
But what must I do?

357
00:47:06,246 --> 00:47:09,647
Everywhere the procedure is the same

358
00:47:10,150 --> 00:47:12,914
By her dress, attitude and
make-up

359
00:47:13,087 --> 00:47:15,749
the prostitute indicates
her trade

360
00:47:15,956 --> 00:47:17,924
Sometimes, in defiance of the law

361
00:47:18,092 --> 00:47:21,755
she will appeal directly
to the client

362
00:47:23,263 --> 00:47:24,992
What do I charge?

363
00:47:25,666 --> 00:47:30,126
From 300 to 15,000 francs

364
00:47:30,304 --> 00:47:34,798
for a meeting varying from
a few minutes to an hour

365
00:47:34,975 --> 00:47:38,638
The rate for a whole night ranges
from 5,000 to 50,000 francs

366
00:47:39,947 --> 00:47:41,539
Can I go anywhere I like?

367
00:47:42,316 --> 00:47:45,877
Controls have been attempted.
In Paris, for instance

368
00:47:46,053 --> 00:47:49,318
a police regulation of
August 25th 1958

369
00:47:49,523 --> 00:47:54,620
forbids loitering with intent

370
00:47:54,795 --> 00:47:56,387
at certain hours,
in the Bois de Boulogne

371
00:47:56,563 --> 00:47:59,999
and around the Champs Elysées

372
00:48:00,701 --> 00:48:02,566
Do I keep all the money?

373
00:48:02,970 --> 00:48:06,997
A daily tax is agreed

374
00:48:07,408 --> 00:48:09,342
Around the Champs Elysées

375
00:48:09,510 --> 00:48:11,637
20,000 to 30,000 francs a day

376
00:48:11,845 --> 00:48:13,779
Payable weekly

377
00:48:15,282 --> 00:48:17,011
Do I have a room?

378
00:48:17,651 --> 00:48:21,712
Hotels usually change the towels,
not sheets

379
00:48:21,955 --> 00:48:25,789
Beds are often made just with
a bottom sheet

380
00:48:27,227 --> 00:48:28,353
The police?

381
00:48:29,129 --> 00:48:31,791
They conduct raids, interrogations

382
00:48:31,965 --> 00:48:39,804
Anyone infringing regulations
is sent for medical tests

383
00:48:42,843 --> 00:48:44,743
Can I drink in a café?

384
00:48:45,145 --> 00:48:48,205
A drunken prostitute
is a liability

385
00:48:48,382 --> 00:48:51,010
undesirable because
she creates scenes

386
00:48:54,388 --> 00:48:55,878
If I'm pregnant?

387
00:48:56,590 --> 00:49:00,390
People think prostitutes
always have abortions

388
00:49:00,561 --> 00:49:01,550
That's not true

389
00:49:02,096 --> 00:49:07,932
They do try to avoid pregnancy,
by chemical or other means

390
00:49:08,435 --> 00:49:12,201
But when pregnancy is confirmed,
abortions are rare

391
00:49:14,374 --> 00:49:15,807
Must I accept anyone?

392
00:49:16,143 --> 00:49:20,807
The prostitute must always be
at the client's disposal

393
00:49:21,248 --> 00:49:23,682
She must accept anyone who pays

394
00:49:24,852 --> 00:49:29,915
That one... that one...

395
00:49:34,194 --> 00:49:36,025
Are there clients every day?

396
00:49:36,330 --> 00:49:39,128
Lower-grade prostitutes

397
00:49:39,299 --> 00:49:41,392
average five to eight clients
a day

398
00:49:42,002 --> 00:49:48,373
They earn 4,000 to 8,000 a day, but
some earn extraordinary sums

399
00:49:48,642 --> 00:49:52,305
Sixty clients a day is not unheard of
on Saturdays or holidays

400
00:49:53,914 --> 00:50:00,717
A young man. Luigi.
Nana wonders whether she's happy

401
00:50:01,155 --> 00:50:02,918
What about days off?

402
00:50:03,090 --> 00:50:06,025
Usually after the medical check

403
00:50:06,193 --> 00:50:09,822
Her man usually takes her out

404
00:50:10,330 --> 00:50:13,458
often to see her child
in the country

405
00:50:13,734 --> 00:50:16,202
Afterwards, they go to a restaurant
or a movie

406
00:50:21,208 --> 00:50:22,835
Is Luigi here?
-He's upstairs

407
00:50:26,013 --> 00:50:27,605
I'll be five minutes

408
00:50:27,781 --> 00:50:29,373
The film's started, anyway

409
00:51:07,387 --> 00:51:08,718
Any cigarettes?

410
00:51:09,122 --> 00:51:11,613
What kind?
-I just wanted to know

411
00:52:01,375 --> 00:52:03,866
Any cigarettes?
-They have them downstairs

412
00:52:13,020 --> 00:52:15,215
How are you?
-So-so

413
00:52:17,391 --> 00:52:19,291
We were supposed to go
to the movies

414
00:52:20,193 --> 00:52:21,023
I'll cheer you up

415
00:52:31,638 --> 00:52:34,106
I'll do the kid blowing up
a balloon

416
00:53:31,932 --> 00:53:33,832
You ought to be my man

417
00:53:34,668 --> 00:53:36,761
Now will you let us talk?

418
00:57:11,318 --> 00:57:19,783
The streets. A guy.
Happiness is no fun

419
00:58:01,067 --> 00:58:03,365
Inspector Fleytoux has bought a BMW

420
00:58:36,770 --> 00:58:38,704
They could have supplied chairs

421
00:58:39,239 --> 00:58:40,638
It's always like this

422
00:58:48,715 --> 00:58:51,843
How much?
-3,000. 5,000 if I undress

423
00:58:54,754 --> 00:58:57,746
Just one more.
-I must keep some

424
00:58:59,826 --> 00:59:03,421
One of those, then? A little one.
I'll be very nice

425
00:59:07,834 --> 00:59:09,392
Do you come here often?

426
00:59:12,005 --> 00:59:15,338
Haven't we met before?
-Maybe

427
00:59:19,212 --> 00:59:20,702
What's your name?

428
00:59:24,284 --> 00:59:25,512
That's a nice name

429
00:59:28,221 --> 00:59:30,018
Yes, I'm fond of it

430
00:59:31,191 --> 00:59:32,715
What's your job?

431
00:59:33,526 --> 00:59:35,619
I do advertising pictures

432
00:59:36,362 --> 00:59:40,059
Is that like the films?
-No, they're stills

433
00:59:41,267 --> 00:59:44,031
I was in a film with
Eddie Constantine

434
00:59:44,270 --> 00:59:47,205
No Pity. Did you see it?

435
00:59:51,745 --> 00:59:55,078
You don't talk. Are you romantic?

436
01:00:01,421 --> 01:00:03,753
If you give me more, you can stay

437
01:00:09,796 --> 01:00:13,960
You want a second girl? I'll see

438
01:00:33,686 --> 01:00:35,517
Are you going?
-Yes

439
01:00:37,757 --> 01:00:40,726
Can you spare five minutes?
-Ask Monique, she's in 41

440
01:00:54,207 --> 01:00:55,936
What's up?
-Nothing

441
01:00:59,979 --> 01:01:01,537
They never work

442
01:01:03,583 --> 01:01:05,175
See you on Tuesday

443
01:01:21,134 --> 01:01:22,931
What are you doing?
-I'm going down

444
01:01:23,069 --> 01:01:25,902
Can you spare a moment?
-How much?

445
01:01:26,072 --> 01:01:30,031
Ask him.
-All right

446
01:01:30,376 --> 01:01:31,673
Room 45

447
01:01:54,100 --> 01:01:55,624
Arrange it with her

448
01:02:11,417 --> 01:02:14,181
What's your name?
-Elizabeth, like the Queen of England

449
01:02:17,790 --> 01:02:21,988
Shall I strip, too?
-No, it's not worth it

450
01:02:22,328 --> 01:02:25,627
So I'm to do nothing?
-I don't know

451
01:02:35,608 --> 01:02:36,870
Like that

452
01:02:51,457 --> 01:02:58,329
Place du Châtelet. A stranger.
Nana the unwitting philosopher

453
01:04:10,103 --> 01:04:11,968
Mind if I look?

454
01:04:15,842 --> 01:04:18,902
You look bored.
-Not at all

455
01:04:21,781 --> 01:04:23,942
What are you doing?
-I'm reading

456
01:04:33,893 --> 01:04:37,590
Will you buy me a drink?
-If you like

457
01:04:45,304 --> 01:04:49,934
Do you come here often?
-Occasionally. I happened by

458
01:04:52,245 --> 01:04:55,442
Why are you reading?
-It's my job

459
01:05:02,221 --> 01:05:03,518
It's odd

460
01:05:03,756 --> 01:05:08,284
Suddenly I don't know what to say;
it often happens to me

461
01:05:09,495 --> 01:05:15,092
I know what I want to say. I think
about whether it is what I mean

462
01:05:16,369 --> 01:05:21,033
But when the moment comes to speak,
I can't say it

463
01:05:21,407 --> 01:05:23,136
Yes, of course

464
01:05:24,577 --> 01:05:27,137
You've read
The Three Musketeers?

465
01:05:27,580 --> 01:05:29,571
I saw the film. Why?

466
01:05:31,951 --> 01:05:36,251
Because in it, Porthos

467
01:05:37,290 --> 01:05:40,691
this is really in
Twenty Years Later

468
01:05:40,960 --> 01:05:44,293
Porthos, tall, strong,
a little stupid

469
01:05:45,631 --> 01:05:48,395
he's never thought in his life

470
01:05:49,669 --> 01:05:54,368
He has to place a bomb in a cellar
to blow it up

471
01:05:55,108 --> 01:05:56,405
He does it

472
01:05:57,009 --> 01:06:00,945
He places the bomb, lights the fuse,
then he runs away, of course

473
01:06:02,281 --> 01:06:04,647
But suddenly he begins to think

474
01:06:06,352 --> 01:06:12,291
What about? How it is possible
to put one foot before the other?

475
01:06:12,658 --> 01:06:14,592
You must have thought about that, too

476
01:06:17,096 --> 01:06:21,192
So he stops running. He can't go on,
he can't move forward

477
01:06:24,804 --> 01:06:27,705
The bomb explodes,
the cellar falls on him

478
01:06:28,141 --> 01:06:30,905
He holds it up with his shoulders

479
01:06:31,577 --> 01:06:35,946
But after a day, or maybe two,
he is crushed to death

480
01:06:37,116 --> 01:06:39,380
The first time he thought,
it killed him

481
01:06:39,619 --> 01:06:41,917
Why did you tell me that story?

482
01:06:43,489 --> 01:06:46,117
No reason, just to talk

483
01:06:46,459 --> 01:06:48,893
Why must one always talk?

484
01:06:49,829 --> 01:06:53,287
Often one shouldn't talk,
but live in silence

485
01:06:55,268 --> 01:06:57,998
The more one talks,
the less the words mean

486
01:06:58,571 --> 01:07:00,630
Perhaps, but can one?

487
01:07:03,409 --> 01:07:04,376
I don't know

488
01:07:04,844 --> 01:07:08,007
I've found that we can't live
without talking

489
01:07:13,152 --> 01:07:15,780
I'd like to live without talking

490
01:07:16,522 --> 01:07:19,923
Yes, it would be nice, wouldn't it?

491
01:07:20,760 --> 01:07:22,990
Like loving one another more

492
01:07:23,796 --> 01:07:26,196
But it isn't possible

493
01:07:26,566 --> 01:07:31,094
But why? Words should express
just what one wants to say

494
01:07:32,772 --> 01:07:34,262
Do they betray us?

495
01:07:36,042 --> 01:07:37,942
But we betray them, too

496
01:07:38,110 --> 01:07:41,079
One should be able
to express oneself

497
01:07:41,247 --> 01:07:42,942
It has been done in writing

498
01:07:43,282 --> 01:07:46,547
Think: someone like Plato

499
01:07:47,186 --> 01:07:50,678
can still be understood - he can

500
01:07:51,190 --> 01:07:55,126
Yet he wrote in Greek,
2,500 years ago

501
01:07:55,428 --> 01:07:59,922
No one really knows the language,
at least, not exactly

502
01:08:01,067 --> 01:08:05,003
Yet something gets through, so we
should be able to express ourselves

503
01:08:06,806 --> 01:08:08,239
And we must

504
01:08:08,674 --> 01:08:12,872
Why must we?
To understand each other?

505
01:08:17,683 --> 01:08:22,620
We must think, and for thought
we need words

506
01:08:22,922 --> 01:08:24,480
There's no other way to think

507
01:08:25,625 --> 01:08:28,389
To communicate, one must talk;
that is our life

508
01:08:29,061 --> 01:08:31,188
Yes, but it is very difficult

509
01:08:35,468 --> 01:08:38,335
I think life should be easy

510
01:08:42,441 --> 01:08:46,810
Your talk of The Three Musketeers
may make a good story

511
01:08:47,246 --> 01:08:48,873
but it's terrible

512
01:08:49,148 --> 01:08:51,548
Yes, but it's a pointer

513
01:08:53,152 --> 01:08:54,414
I believe

514
01:08:56,088 --> 01:09:01,082
one learns to talk well only when
one has renounced life for a time

515
01:09:01,527 --> 01:09:04,428
That's the price.
-So, to speak is fatal?

516
01:09:04,597 --> 01:09:08,158
Speaking is almost a resurrection
in relation to life

517
01:09:08,334 --> 01:09:11,792
Speech is another life
from when one does not speak

518
01:09:13,639 --> 01:09:16,665
So, to live in speech

519
01:09:17,476 --> 01:09:21,310
one must pass through the death
of life without speech

520
01:09:21,480 --> 01:09:23,471
I may not be putting it clearly,
but

521
01:09:26,052 --> 01:09:31,456
there is a kind of ascetic rule
that stops one from talking well

522
01:09:31,624 --> 01:09:33,717
until one sees life
with detachment

523
01:09:36,595 --> 01:09:40,793
But one can't live everyday life
with... I don't know

524
01:09:43,035 --> 01:09:44,502
With detachment

525
01:09:45,204 --> 01:09:49,436
We balance, that's why we pass
from silence to words

526
01:09:50,343 --> 01:09:55,371
We swing between the two
because it's the movement of life

527
01:09:55,548 --> 01:10:01,453
From everyday life one rises
to a life we call superior

528
01:10:02,021 --> 01:10:04,046
The thinking life

529
01:10:04,757 --> 01:10:09,717
But this life presupposes
one has killed the everyday

530
01:10:09,895 --> 01:10:11,226
too elementary life

531
01:10:13,799 --> 01:10:17,166
Then thinking and talking
are the same thing?

532
01:10:17,937 --> 01:10:19,495
So I believe

533
01:10:19,772 --> 01:10:23,173
Plato said so; it's an old idea

534
01:10:23,509 --> 01:10:30,210
One cannot distinguish the thought
from the words that express it

535
01:10:30,416 --> 01:10:36,116
An instant of thought can only
be grasped through words

536
01:10:36,455 --> 01:10:38,753
So one must talk and risk lying?

537
01:10:39,158 --> 01:10:45,461
Lies, too, are part of our quest.
Errors and lies are very similar

538
01:10:45,631 --> 01:10:49,067
I don't mean ordinary lies

539
01:10:49,235 --> 01:10:54,332
Iike I promise to come tomorrow,
but I don't, as I didn't want to

540
01:10:54,573 --> 01:10:56,734
You see, those are ploys

541
01:10:57,143 --> 01:11:02,672
But a subtle lie is little
different from an error

542
01:11:03,783 --> 01:11:07,549
One searches and can't find
the right word

543
01:11:07,720 --> 01:11:11,713
That's why you didn't know
what to say

544
01:11:12,224 --> 01:11:16,456
You were afraid of not finding the
right word. That's the explanation

545
01:11:19,098 --> 01:11:21,965
How can one be sure of having found
the right word?

546
01:11:25,037 --> 01:11:26,163
One must work

547
01:11:26,539 --> 01:11:28,837
It needs an effort

548
01:11:29,241 --> 01:11:35,111
One must speak in a way
that is right, doesn't hurt

549
01:11:35,314 --> 01:11:39,410
says what has to be said,
does what has to be done

550
01:11:39,585 --> 01:11:42,145
without hurting or bruising

551
01:11:44,290 --> 01:11:46,656
One must try to be in good faith

552
01:11:48,260 --> 01:11:53,357
Someone told me: "There is truth
in everything, even in error."

553
01:11:55,034 --> 01:12:00,062
That's true. France didn't see it
in the seventeenth century

554
01:12:00,606 --> 01:12:03,541
They thought one could avoid error

555
01:12:03,709 --> 01:12:07,770
and what's more, that one could
live directly in the truth

556
01:12:08,814 --> 01:12:11,715
It isn't possible

557
01:12:11,884 --> 01:12:16,412
Hence Kant, Hegel, German philosophy:
to bring us back to life

558
01:12:16,755 --> 01:12:21,021
and make us see that we must pass
through error to arrive at the truth

559
01:12:25,698 --> 01:12:27,495
What do you think about love?

560
01:12:30,703 --> 01:12:33,467
The body had to come into it

561
01:12:33,639 --> 01:12:37,040
Leibnitz introduced the contingent

562
01:12:37,309 --> 01:12:41,939
Contingent truths and necessary
truths make up life

563
01:12:42,114 --> 01:12:45,811
German philosophy showed us that

564
01:12:45,985 --> 01:12:50,251
in life, one thinks with the
servitudes and errors of life

565
01:12:50,422 --> 01:12:53,482
One must manage with that,
that's true

566
01:12:56,328 --> 01:12:58,922
Shouldn't love be the only truth?

567
01:13:01,433 --> 01:13:04,630
For that, love would always have
to be true

568
01:13:05,237 --> 01:13:08,695
Do you know anyone who knows
at once what he loves?

569
01:13:09,441 --> 01:13:13,070
No. When you're twenty
you don't know

570
01:13:13,579 --> 01:13:18,107
All you know are bits and pieces,
you make arbitrary choices

571
01:13:18,284 --> 01:13:21,082
Your "I love" is an impure affair

572
01:13:21,253 --> 01:13:26,987
But to be completely at one with
what you love, you need maturity

573
01:13:27,660 --> 01:13:31,460
That means searching.
This is the truth of life

574
01:13:33,866 --> 01:13:38,997
That's why love is a solution,
on condition that it is true

575
01:13:41,674 --> 01:13:48,876
The young man again.
The oval portrait. Raoul trades Nana

576
01:13:59,491 --> 01:14:01,186
What shall we do today?

577
01:14:01,994 --> 01:14:02,983
I don't know

578
01:14:03,162 --> 01:14:05,596
Shall we go to the Luxembourg?

579
01:14:08,734 --> 01:14:11,498
I think it's going to rain

580
01:14:13,606 --> 01:14:17,440
I thus saw in vivid light
a picture all unnoticed before

581
01:14:18,978 --> 01:14:22,243
It was the portrait of a young girl
just ripening into womanhood

582
01:14:23,248 --> 01:14:26,740
I glanced at the painting hurriedly,
and then closed my eyes

583
01:14:36,562 --> 01:14:40,089
It was an impulsive movement
to gain time for thought

584
01:14:41,233 --> 01:14:43,667
to make sure that my vision
had not deceived me

585
01:14:44,370 --> 01:14:48,431
to calm and subdue my fancy for
a more sober and more certain gaze

586
01:14:50,109 --> 01:14:54,102
In a very few moments I again
looked fixedly at the painting

587
01:15:00,753 --> 01:15:04,382
The portrait, I have already said,
was that of a young girl

588
01:15:06,158 --> 01:15:09,150
It was a mere head and shoulders

589
01:15:09,328 --> 01:15:13,025
done in what is technically
termed a "vignette" manner

590
01:15:13,866 --> 01:15:16,892
much in the style of the
favorite heads of Sully

591
01:15:18,070 --> 01:15:22,234
The arms, the bosom, and even the
ends of the radiant hair

592
01:15:22,408 --> 01:15:28,074
melted imperceptibly into the vague
yet deep shadow of the background

593
01:15:30,215 --> 01:15:33,446
As a thing of art,
nothing could be more admirable

594
01:15:33,619 --> 01:15:35,018
than the painting itself

595
01:15:36,255 --> 01:15:39,713
But it could have been neither
the execution of the work

596
01:15:39,892 --> 01:15:42,019
nor the immortal beauty
of the countenance

597
01:15:42,194 --> 01:15:44,594
which so vehemently moved me

598
01:15:45,798 --> 01:15:49,734
Least of all could it have been
that my fancy

599
01:15:49,935 --> 01:15:52,529
had mistaken the head for that
of a living person

600
01:15:57,309 --> 01:16:00,710
At length, satisfied with the
true secret of its effect

601
01:16:01,447 --> 01:16:03,608
I fell back within the bed

602
01:16:04,149 --> 01:16:06,674
I had found the spell
of the picture

603
01:16:06,852 --> 01:16:11,551
in a "Iife-likeliness"
of expression

604
01:16:12,791 --> 01:16:15,851
Is that book yours?
-No, I found it here

605
01:16:22,868 --> 01:16:24,301
Can I have one?

606
01:16:33,946 --> 01:16:38,042
It's our story: a painter
portraying his love

607
01:16:39,118 --> 01:16:40,380
Shall I go on?

608
01:16:44,323 --> 01:16:47,588
And in sooth some who beheld
the portrait

609
01:16:48,160 --> 01:16:51,618
spoke of its resemblance
as of a mighty marvel

610
01:16:52,097 --> 01:16:55,362
and a proof not less of
the power of the painter

611
01:16:55,567 --> 01:16:57,467
than of his deep love for her

612
01:16:57,603 --> 01:16:59,662
whom he depicted
so surpassingly well

613
01:17:00,372 --> 01:17:04,138
But at length, as the labor drew
nearer to its conclusion

614
01:17:04,576 --> 01:17:06,908
there were admitted none
into the turret

615
01:17:07,212 --> 01:17:10,443
for the painter had grown wild
with the ardor of his work

616
01:17:10,616 --> 01:17:14,950
and turned his eyes from the canvas
rarely, even to regard his wife

617
01:17:16,388 --> 01:17:20,222
And he would not see that the tints
which he spread upon the canvas

618
01:17:20,392 --> 01:17:23,691
were drawn from the cheeks of her
who sat beside him

619
01:17:24,830 --> 01:17:29,529
And when many weeks had passed
and but little remained to do

620
01:17:30,068 --> 01:17:34,004
save one brush upon the mouth
and one tint upon the eye

621
01:17:34,173 --> 01:17:36,164
the spirit of the lady again
flickered up

622
01:17:36,341 --> 01:17:38,241
as the flame of the lamp

623
01:17:39,311 --> 01:17:42,838
And then the brush was given
and then the tint was placed

624
01:17:44,183 --> 01:17:47,277
And for one moment, the painter
stood entranced

625
01:17:47,452 --> 01:17:49,215
before the work he had wrought

626
01:17:49,988 --> 01:17:55,949
But in the next, while he yet gazed,
he grew tremulous and aghast

627
01:17:56,128 --> 01:18:00,189
and crying with a loud voice:
"This is indeed Life itself!"

628
01:18:00,532 --> 01:18:03,501
turned suddenly to regard
his beloved:

629
01:18:04,369 --> 01:18:05,893
She was dead

630
01:18:15,247 --> 01:18:17,511
I'd like to go to the Louvre

631
01:18:17,683 --> 01:18:20,914
No, I don't like looking at pictures

632
01:18:24,156 --> 01:18:27,614
Why? Art and beauty are life

633
01:18:31,263 --> 01:18:32,821
I adore you

634
01:18:33,131 --> 01:18:34,564
And I love you

635
01:18:42,908 --> 01:18:45,274
Why not come and live with me?

636
01:18:45,444 --> 01:18:48,140
Yes. I'll tell Raoul it's all over

637
01:18:55,053 --> 01:18:57,385
Let me put my coat on, at least!

638
01:18:59,591 --> 01:19:00,717
Don't be silly

639
01:19:31,123 --> 01:19:32,681
What did I do wrong?

640
01:19:34,159 --> 01:19:36,127
You must take anyone who pays

641
01:19:36,395 --> 01:19:39,489
Not anyone. Sometimes it's degrading

642
01:19:40,732 --> 01:19:42,495
That's where you're wrong

643
01:19:50,342 --> 01:19:54,779
Weekdays we're too busy
to go to the movies

644
01:19:54,947 --> 01:19:56,574
and on Sundays there's a line

645
01:20:00,452 --> 01:20:03,114
Where to?
-Their car

646
01:20:03,789 --> 01:20:06,451
Why did you make me come?

647
01:20:06,992 --> 01:20:08,619
You're going to stay with them

648
01:20:11,697 --> 01:20:14,359
HADES AND SONS

649
01:21:16,661 --> 01:21:17,992
Well, are you going?

650
01:21:33,912 --> 01:21:35,140
First the girl

651
01:21:45,323 --> 01:21:46,551
First the money

652
01:21:51,530 --> 01:21:52,861
Get the money

653
01:22:26,431 --> 01:22:27,864
100,000 is missing

654
01:22:28,867 --> 01:22:32,428
Don't think I won't shoot
just because of the girl

655
01:22:37,742 --> 01:22:40,210
You shoot, I forgot to load it
