All language subtitles for The Scarlet Lady

You know...

we won't be able to pay the employees

and meet our date of payments
at the end of the month.

What?

The bank refuses any more overdraft.

What are you saying?

I didn't want to worry you.

As we can't push back the
drafts they will be disputed.

This time it's foreclosure.

How is it possible?

I don't understand.

We've always worked together.

You will help me, right?

I'm not your partner.

I'm only your commercial manager.

But you have money...

No I don't. You know it.

But then...how did you
do for your country house?

For your week-ends in Paris
every Friday?

It's a nightmare.

I could sell my jewels.
-You would not get a quarter of the price.

My jeweller was an honest man. -Honest or not
you'll see when he buys them from you.

You must help me!
-I already told you I had nothing.

You have nothing...
-No.

But Julien you...love me...

We must prevent the
foreclosure at any price.

We can mortgage the factory.
-Of course that's one solution.

My lawyer will probably lend me 5 million
over the factory. -You know that you registered
the factory to the name of a civil society.

But it changes nothing.
-You forget that I'm the main shareholder.

But the factory belongs to me.
You're just a nominee.

I'm fed up being your nominee.

The factory is mine.
-You're mad.

You have signed blank shares.

They're not in the safe anymore.

I tore them up when I
registered my shares.

I'm the rich owner of a factory
worth 150 million.

This is the offer that was made to me.

Mr Garnier you can't let
him do such a thing.

This perfume factory is in the family
for 150 years. -Are you sure that these
blank shares have disappeared?

Yes. They're not in the safe.

He had the key.

I trusted him so much.

I believed in him.

He was also my father's best administrator.
-It didn't prevent him to ruin your business.

Of course...

You're right, but it's difficult to admit.

Mrs Lombardi, you can always count on me.

I'm sorry, madame. We carried out
Mr Auchard's request.

He sent you a demand for payment that
stayed unanswered. Are you able to pay?

With what money?

Go on.

Aloysius70

Cinemaggedon exclusive - Not for sale

And this? Can't you let me keep it?
I love it so much.

Unfortunately we have orders
to take everything.

The sale will cover only
a small part of the sum.

Well...

go on.

Good luck. If you're thirsty
the bar is over there.

60.000. Don't you think it's fair?

It's ridiculous. I paid twice that sum.

Don't forget that the resale
price is not the buying price.

Jewels are assets.

Of course.

Your concept of capital is not mine.

Wait.

I make you a last offer. 80.000.

It's all I can do.

Really?

Very well. Pay me in cash.

Where are you going, madame?

Place des Ternes.
-Impossible. My day is over.

I'm going to Montparnasse.

Well, to Montparnasse then.

I'd like a room with bathroom.

There is room 12 with view on the yard.
You want to visit? -No, it's fine.

Don't bother. I have just one bag.

Will you please fill out your details?
-Of course.

Thank you. I can't read your name.

Lucille Lagrange.

You want?
Two tubes of Numbothal please.

You have the prescription?
-It's an old one. -It doesn't matter.

Very well.

To what name and what address?

Sir, I'd like some caviare.

Big size grain.

The biggest you have.
-How much?

250 ounce. No it's too small.
More.

That's it.

There. And then...

Some Champagne.
-Which one?

Taitinger '59.

25 Th January. My dear Julien...

I write you this letter hoping it
will hurt you as much as possible.

What can I say? I'm still attached
to feelings of revenge,

love and hate.

You're responsible for my death.

It's stupid.

It would make him so happy.

How to hurt him?

Real bad.

If I...

If I killed him. What day is today?

He's in Paris every Friday morning.

Every Friday.

Friday...

One week of respite.

What kind of car is that?

The English car there?

An Austin Princess.
-It's a good car?

The Queen's car!
Almost entirely handmade.

Never out of fashion.
It's guaranteed to never break.

The more it runs more reliable it gets .

Catch the driver.

Your car's for sale?

I'm buying.
-You make a good deal.

Do you want to take an appointment?
-No, I want it now.

Like this?

How much does it cost?
-Three millions.

Perfect. I have the sum with me.
Stop at the next crossroad.

Alright.

Tires are new. Circuits have
been checked. Here are the keys.

But we must have an appointment
for the assurance and the papers.
-Alright, I'll come to see you one of these days.

Just let me say thanks then...

The Queen has good taste!

You have a permit Miss?

Yes of course. In my bag.

Wonderful...

It's not loaded?
-Absolutely not.

Don't you have it...

in a lighter tone?

There. If you want to
have a look please.

Thank you.

That's it. It's lighter.
Yes but this...

It's not very handy.

Of course...

Here. This one is better.

But no...

That one.

It's great but...

Don't you have

a very small one?

Very small.

Can you wait a minute please?

Of course.

I'm hungry.

But not alone...

This one?

Above all...

no moustache.

Mister, can I invite you...

Where did you buy this mink coat?

It's a gift.
-Lucky boy.

Can I...

What time is it please?

Twenty to one.

Twenty to one in case you didn't hear.

What a fool.

I'm inviting you to lunch.

I'm inviting you to lunch.

Just like that?

Yes. Just like that.

Let's go then.

Although I'm a Parisian it's the
first time I'm coming here.

Me I come from the South.

There's nothing like country people
to help you visit the capital.

You're not impressed by the view?

That? Not at all.
I'm used to ocean depths.

Why? What are you doing in life?
-I'm raising up shipwrecks.

Shipwrecks?

I have a little job for you.

It's very good.

What did they put inside?

Some kummel.

But it's a mistake.

They should have strengthened
it with some Mirabelle.

Or some plum.
-Really?

Anyway they were wrong to cook
the strawberries.

It must be served cold.

With an orange juice and half a lemon.

You're a cook?

Yesterday I was a burgess.

Admit it's curious...

What?

The way all this happened.

It's curious.

It's the first time it happens to you?
-Of course.

But don't be so surprised.
I guess I'm not the first man
to be invited to lunch like this.

At first I thought that...

I thought that...

Well in my case every man would
have thought the same thing...
I thought that you...

That I was a prostitute?

You're an easy client anyway.

And now?

You don't think so?

And why?

If I have the experience
that you lend to me

I can recognise a woman from...

Come on, say it.

You sure you're never wrong?

Not in this domain.

Why did you do this?

I wanted to talk to someone.

Don't you have friends?

but most of them are
on the Riviera and...

I wanted to change.

Why?

When you want a change in your
life there's a reason? What's yours?

Don't you think it's a bit odd to
have lunch together 100 meters above
the ground without knowing each other?

As far as I'm concerned

I have a pleasant time.

Life is beautiful.

You're nice.

The cooking is fine.

It's a way to see things.

Nonetheless even a fortuitous meeting
create bonds between people. Don't you think?

Let's say it's the case.

It's obvious.

Otherwise it would have been simpler

kidnapping me in an Austin Princess,
not coming to me in the street

and not inviting me to lunch.

And now you're interrogating me.

You put yourself into this position.

What do you want to know exactly?
My life?

Well, I'm born in Italy.
I came to Paris,

I live in a small hotel in Montparnasse.

I lived a great romance not so long ago.

I thought I was a business woman
but I was wrong.

I wanted to fly with my own wings.

But they broke.

To resume, like people say,

I committed the sin of pride.

And now I realise who I really am.

A country woman from another century.

You start a new life from scratch.

From scratch.

But I don't start a new life.

A lot of people found themselves in
your situation and managed to overcome it.

You hide something from me.

Not at all.

You're a bad liar.

It's not serious anyway.
-It's for me to judge.

You wouldn't believe me.
-You can always try.

I'm going to kill myself.

You'll have another coffee?

Ask the wine waiter to
bring us some alcohol.

If I remember well you have
a wonderful raspberry liquor.

You like raspberry?

You can't do that.

Why? You think I was serious?

I was joking.
-Not at all.

You were not joking at all.

Your behaviour is proof enough.

Looking at you anyone can see
you're indifferent to everything.

You're able to do anything.

You're becoming melodramatic.

Melodrama is real.

I'm not very glad to be the witness
of its existence.

I agree.

But there are so many
people tired of living.

You'd be too busy preventing all of them.

It's different with you.
You happened in my life.

I can't...
-You can't do what?

I can't let you do that.

Until Friday...

You're not going to lock me in?

It's Friday that...?

I said Friday?

Well...

Starting now I'm not
leaving you alone.

Not at all?

Can I make a phone call at least?

This?

It's not for me.

Head waiter.

Sir?
-The bill please.

It's done Sir.

What do you mean?
-The lady just paid.

I'd like a suite.
-Of course. For how long?

One week.

Almost a week.

Please sign here.

What name shall I write on your form?

Lise Ducreux.

Born in Strasbourg, Bas-Rhin.

Write the birth name of your choice.

Do you have luggage?
-No. I'll receive them tomorrow.

There's a terrace.
Do you want to have a look?

Please bring me a toothbrush
and some toothpaste.

You have everything in the bathroom.

News item.

Revenge,

love and death.

A young woman kills her
lover and then kills herself.

But...

until Friday...

What am I going to do?

I must change.

I must have fun.

How are you, girl?

Thank you for everyone to come here.
I think we can start now.

First question please?

For France 4...

For Israeli News.

What will happen the
day you stop to sing?

I mean...What will you do the
day you're out of fashion?

Who are they?
-The Timothys.

120 broken seats at their concert last
Wednesday. 24 faintings. 8 bouts of hysteria.
They even made the Queen laugh.

It's their first stay in France.
Melodirama tonight and the Olympia.

You seem to be well informed. -I'm the French
correspondent in Paris for the New-York News.

My name is John Burt.
-Yes another question?

And him?
-It's their manager. Tom Sturges.

No, he says he's moon-sick.

What will you do when you sneeze?
I have such a cold...

For?
-For...

For Switzerland Today.

I have a big news for
you ladies and gentlemen.

Our friends will all marry together
on the 15th February in Liverpool.

Are you really Swiss, Miss?
-My mother is Sicilian.

Bravo! You're wonderful.

You have great marketing ideas!
-10 percent.

Of course. You're coming
to see us tonight? -Why not?

Hello?

Hi Tommy?
You're not too mad at me?

Good.

Tonight?

Tonight...

Tomorrow? I can't.

It's not that I'm out of reach.

I'm just busy.

Come in.

I'm not talking to you.

Give me the card.

The card for the flowers.

Yes, right!

Absolutely.

John Burt. French Correspondent...

would be happy to invite you...
What?

Not at all. Absolutely. Impossible.

Call me tomorrow.

Please tell me.
At which time the plane

coming from Nice lands in Paris
next Friday morning?

I was waiting for you...

You have a great tan...

Can you come to my place for five minutes?

Only five minutes.

We were afraid for you.
-Me too.

Give me a cigarette.

Here. What happened?

I was blocked by a boilerplate.

Prepare some explosives for tomorrow.
I will blow everything.

You think it will be finished
in ten days? -It must be.

I don't want to miss the Cara�bes
contract and the 100.000.

I'm sorry.

Hello Sir.
You recognise me?

Of course.
-Do you remember the young woman

with me at this place yesterday?
-The young blonde woman who left suddenly.

Exactly. You know her?
She's a regular client here?

Not at all. It's the first
time she came here.

You're sure. -Absolutely.
I never forget a face.

Did she pay you by check?

No. She paid in cash.

I'm sorry.

Me too.

It's about a missing person.
-Who's missing?

A woman.
-Your wife?

No. She's a young woman who...

Well. Her name, age and last address?

That's the point. I don't know.

All I know is that she comes from Nice.
She lives in a Montparnasse hotel.

She's blonde, very pretty.

And she's around 25 years old.

It's not much. Your description
fits lots of women.

Yes, I know.

By the way why are you so
sure she disappeared?

Well in fact she didn't
exactly disappeared...

It's not clear. She's missing or not?
-It's more complicated.

I met her yesterday for the first
time. She came to me in the street.

Really? I see you coming too.

Not at all. It's really not
what you think about.

At first I found that story rather funny.
She took me to lunch at the Eiffel tower.

Strange idea.
-You think so?

Anyway she confessed she wanted to
commit suicide at the end of the lunch.

And another one!
-I'm sure I'm not wrong.

She was completely distressed.
There was something in her eyes...

Anyway. She told me this only
because I was in front of her.

She even gave me the date of ...
-Of her death?

It's Friday.
-It's only Monday.

Four days.
-Of course, it's a very urgent case.

In your place I wouldn't worry so much.
-But she has a gun in her purse.

Article 20 of the penal code.
-You're going to do something then?

Come back Wednesday and I'll give
you some news. -Wednesday?

And it's only because I'm a generous man.

I'm sorry to ask but would you have among
your clients a young blonde woman

with a slender figure

and coming from Nice?
-Who are you?

It's a friend of mine. I lost her address
but I know she lives in the neighbourhood.

What's her name?
-To crown it all I forgot her name.

It's on the tip of my tongue
but I can't remember it. It's silly.

Anyway we don't have slender-shaped
ladies here.

And not a single one comes from Nice.

Well then...

See you soon.

I'm looking for a blonde lady
around 25 coming from Nice.

No, but I have a brunette around
18 coming from Hamburg.

Not really, no...
Good bye.

You're right. This young
lady was here three days ago.

A certain Lucille Lagrange.
-Are you sure.

Of course Sir.

Lucille Lagrange doesn't exist.
I cannot made her up.

Get your little cards out.
Make a real investigation.
This woman is going to kill herself.

We know our job. You're a decent chap,
but please leave me alone.

-Only when you will
have found her.

I'm warning you that if you keep like
this you'll spend the night here.
-Bravo! It's the best you can do.

But why does this woman matter
so much to you?

And what does it matter to you
what it matters to me? -Me, I don't care.

What do you want me to do?
Give me a real name, an address...

A telephone number, a number-plate...

You really think I had the time to
think about a number-plate.

All I know is that she drives an Austin
Princess with a registration number 75.

And then? You want me to investigate
on all the Austin in Paris?

Genius. You're a genius!

See you soon.

You confirm I'm at Mrs Chambord's apartment,
owner of An Austin Princess registered...
-Absolutely.

It's here?

It's, it's...

not really necessary.

Please follow me.

I was waiting for you, Sir.

No, madame. It's impossible. You see...
I'm doing an investigation on...

the Austin Princess owners in Paris.
Well, on the female owners more precisely...

Sit down, Sir.
It's destiny sending you.

No, it's not the destiny.
It's about your car, I'd like to know if...

Sit down now.

But Mrs, I guarantee you,
you're making a mistake.

Your hands, Sir.
-My hands.

I'm investigating.

Shut up Sir or he'll escape.

Who?
-The spirit.

Spirit...

Are you here?

If you're here strike thrice.

He's here.

I'm investigating on the Austin Princess.

At 11 o'clock in the evening?
-It's very important. Do you really
own an Austin Princess registered...

I hate interrogations.
-Darling, who's here?

A bloody nuisance.

I don't have time to explain. I must
absolutely see the woman upstairs.
-I'm going to throw you out!

What's happening?

But you're completely insane.

I became insane.

How much?
-Nothing Mrs. All is paid for.

What do you mean?
-The perfume and the small package.

But I only ordered the perfume.

Se�orita, since we met in the
lift, I...

It was not me. It's impossible.
I never take the lift.
My suite is at the first floor.

I couldn't stop telling myself
"My dear Alberto..."

Alberto it's me. By the way let me introduce
myself. Alberto de Vilalonga, Buenos Aires.

Pleased to meet you. -Very pleased,
very pleased. So I was telling myself...

"My dear Alberto, my old friend,
this perfect woman...

there's something missing here.
-You think so?

Me I don't.

Open it.

Why?

You want to buy me? With that?

What? Me buying you?
Never Se�orita.

It's only in your homage
that I thought...

I'm a very honest woman.
-Of course you are.

Here. Thank you for her.

One doesn't meet a woman like
you every day. So I would be
very happy to know you better.

It's starting again...

John Burt. How are you?

John Bert. Alberto de Vilalonga,
Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Telefono 00001.

Your paper on the Timothys, it's for when?
-Friday.

What time is it?

Four O'clock.
-Four O' clock? I'm very late.

It's important. -Very important. -Can I go
with you? -Yes. -Me too? -Yes, you too.

Stupid cunt.

Can't you let people die when they want to?

Filthy rich. You don't know what
it means to want to die.

Can't you stay in your golden bogs
and leave people alone?

Fuck you. You hear me? Get out of my sight.

You should be given the Legion of Honour.

I'm looking for a friend.

Her Austin Princess is the only
way for me to find her.

A policeman friend gave me the list
of the owners and you're the last one.

Your list was accurate until last Sunday.

I had an Austin Princess inherited from my aunt
but it was not my type of car. So I sold it.

To whom? -To someone in the street.
It was unexpected and very funny.

To whom? -A charming young woman,
blonde and slender. -It's her.

There's no doubt. What's her name?
-You said it was one of your friends?

It was a joke but don't be mad at me.

It's just that I'm so happy.
-Maybe you won't believe me

but I don't know her name.
-What do you mean?

It happened so quickly. She had to
come here for the insurance and the papers.
But I'm still waiting for her.

She won't come.
-Come on, it's impossible.

This car doesn't belong to her
as long as the papers are not in order.

She doesn't care.

Still two days.

You can't imagine how
serious is the situation...

Please. Three bottles
of rose Taittinger '47.

Alright.
-You like all these men around you?

What men?

I love them.

Don't you find them dreadfully funny?

Are you free to diner tonight?
-It's difficult. Very.

Very difficult. -And apparently it
will soon be more difficult yet.

Look who's coming...

What are you doing tonight?

Don't know. Right now I'm
having the time of my life.

I'm inviting you to diner.
-I asked before you. -I'm sorry...

but Lise promised me. You can't
take her to diner three times.

Then it's me inviting you all three.
-To the four of us.

Let's have a toast.

Why did you do that?
Are you completely mad

Of course I'm not mad.

I won my bet. You're worth a
midnight swim, don't you think?

You could at least have
taken all your clothes.

All naked?
-Of course.

How horrible. Completely naked.

I think we drank too much.
-Not me, I pretend to be drunk.

But now I'm catching cold and there's
no heater in your car. -You earned it.

It was worth it, wasn't it?
Since we're alone now the two of us.

Are you sure?

Don't you?

Take the wheel.

What's wrong?

What's the matter? Something bugging you?
-No, it's nothing.

You sure?

You come with me?

You don't feel well?

Oh, it's you...

What day we are now?

Go change your clothes.
-You're right. I'm back in a second.

You found out my little treasure...
-What is it?

This...

This and a good strong drink is
great to chase out black thoughts.

Are you ready?

Not like this. Give it to me.

It didn't work.

I feel nothing.

You're alone?

Yes, I'm alone.

How much?

How much for what?

How much to stay alone?

No. How much to stay with me?

300 francs.

Say, I never saw you before.

No.
-You're new?

Take this.
To celebrate my beginnings.

Are you mad?

No. Superstitious.

Amongst the news items we must
mention the failed suicide
attempt of an unknown woman.

The brand of her clothes make
the police think she comes from Nice.

She threw herself under
a truck last night.

She's now in Hospital Bichat
in a very critical condition.

Who's speaking?
-It's me.

The man at the Eiffel tower.
You remember?

It's nice of you.

But who are you?

We'll talk about that later.

Sleep now.

And don't make another
foolish thing like that.

Hello Yvette. Nothing new?

The people from Marseilles were here
yesterday to study with you the Suez contract.

We looked for you everywhere. -Book
them again Monday at 3pm. Nothing else.

The South-American man has been waiting
for 20 minutes. -Damn!

The Cara�bes contract
completely depends of him.

I'm sorry.

Don't worry. I understand perfectly.

I have a lot of troubles these days.

I hope Yvette has offered
you something to drink.

Good God, did you see the clock?

I'm sorry. I'm still
in yesterday evening's mood.

I can understand. I've had
a rather busy night myself.

You know what the people
say about French women...

Not really.
-Anyway, show me the plan.

It's there.

You know, the deadlines are too shorts,
and the funds insufficient. A ship
of 8 tons burden can't be raised so easily.

Look.

Lovely...

I was talking about that girl.

It's too bad.
It's too bad that you weren't there.

It's that stupid manager who
ended the night with her.

It's overhanging on the coral
where sharks are swarming.
I thought about this.

Hello?
-It's six O' clock, madame.

Six o'clock? In the evening?

In the morning.

Why are you waking me up so early?
-Today is Friday, madame.

What?

Friday.
-Friday?

What are you doing here?
-I was waiting for you.

Why?
-I want to talk to you.

I thought all had been said between us.
-Not entirely.

Meanwhile and with your permission I'm going
to have breakfast. -Good idea. Me too.

You look wonderful.

Is it a reproach?
-Not at all.

So much happened since we...

I've changed.
-Stop acting.

Julien. Let's be realistic.

I have a proposition for you.

Go ahead.

Last week you said you were
ready to sell the factory,

well your factory, against 150 millions.

It's true.
-Well...

I'm buying.

Is this a joke?
-No, I'm serious.

I've found a sleeping partner.

A handsome young man probably.

Handsome...

and young. -And I guess you'll
nominate him commercial manager.

This time it's him
nominating a commercial manager.

And he has 150 millions to spare.
-He has much more.

Listen.

The buying contract is ready.

I'm asking you to read it today.

I'm sorry but I'm
wanted in Chantilly.

It will take you 5 minutes.
I'll drive you after.

It's my car.

You inherited from someone?
-The handsome young man is also very generous.

I hope you didn't take too seriously
all the things I've said to you in Nice.

All these financial issues got me
on edge. -You were the same, I suppose.

Don't worry.

You know, I'm not only short-sighted.

I also have a bad memory.

Sit down.

And if we talked about this contract?
-Of course.

I know that you're in a hurry.

But you can slow down 5 minutes.

You want to drink something?

Of course you want.

About these millions.
Give me details.

You have a sleeping partner?
When will you introduce him to me?

When you want.

Tomorrow.

Eleven o'clock?

Alright.

Here?

You have a fine figure.

It's true. You stay the same.

You know...

You can't wear a tie these days.
It's outdated.

Sometimes even a shirt is too much.

You see that? It's funny and
easy to take off.

Look here.

And the contract?

A moment.

And now you'll do everything I want.

I'm going with you to Chantilly.

I'm sorry for my lateness.
-Please, it's nothing.

Your project is excellent.

I didn't expect less but still
I'm very happy. -Thank you.

There's just a small detail to sort out.

You're not feeling well?

I'm OK, don't worry.
-It won't take long anyway.

You're completely insane.

Slow down. I beg you.

You see the pylon there?

At the end of the road?
-Yes. And then?

Look at it carefully.

Julien.

It's the last thing you'll see.

Don't miss it.

You disgust me so much

that it saves your life.

That's it.

If you manage to raise the boat in
this deadline you won't regret it.

You will earn enough money to
take holidays for ten years.

You look strange...

It's the last day.

What do you mean?

A strange thing happened to me.

My bill please.
-It's ready, madame.

It doesn't bother you if
I leave my belongings in the room?

Not at all, madame. When will
you come to take them?

Tonight.
-At your service.

Why do you worry?
You tried your best.

Say...

don't tell me that...

That?

You saw this woman only once.

I know.
-You can't fall in love with a shadow.

Or a dead woman.

Do you want me to drive you home?

No thanks. I have my car.
Let's finish this first.

When does it go up?
-In three minutes.

We can't go up now?

No. Three minutes is three minutes.
The two lifts rotate.

You're in a hurry?
