For the Love of My Love
(1955)
3
00:01:19,592 --> 00:01:21,798
It started in London during the war.
4
00:01:21,798 --> 00:01:24,755
I had been hurt
and discharged from the Army.
5
00:01:24,755 --> 00:01:27,087
But I stayed in London,
because he was a writer...
6
00:01:27,087 --> 00:01:30,929
and I was interested in another group
who fought for London's survival,
7
00:01:30,929 --> 00:01:34,053
the men in the rear,
public servants.
8
00:01:34,053 --> 00:01:38,141
A week before it was presented
to one of them, Henry Miles,
9
00:01:38,141 --> 00:01:42,014
who invited me to a sherry party
that he and his wife were going to give.
10
00:01:43,027 --> 00:01:45,731
Thank you. He has a charming house.
11
00:01:45,731 --> 00:01:48,227
I didn't imagine him in a house like that.
12
00:01:48,227 --> 00:01:50,563
It is the merit of my wife,
He was the one who found her.
13
00:01:50,563 --> 00:01:54,072
- Who is your wife?
- The one in gray.
14
00:01:54,072 --> 00:01:55,702
Goodbye. It was a pleasure...
15
00:01:55,702 --> 00:01:57,613
- I'm really sorry.
- I'm so clumsy.
16
00:01:57,613 --> 00:01:59,696
- It's okay. No...
- How are you, Jeffrey?
17
00:01:59,696 --> 00:02:02,077
- I'd like to meet her.
- Yes of course.
18
00:02:02,077 --> 00:02:04,074
I haven't seen her in a long time.
19
00:02:04,074 --> 00:02:06,409
Sarah, I wanted to introduce you
Maurice Bendrix.
20
00:02:06,409 --> 00:02:08,411
- My wife.
- Are you the writer?
21
00:02:08,411 --> 00:02:10,995
The fine memory
of a public servant's wife.
22
00:02:10,995 --> 00:02:12,168
I can't forget him.
23
00:02:12,168 --> 00:02:13,632
- Will you excuse me?
- Yes.
24
00:02:13,632 --> 00:02:16,753
Yes. He is writing a book
about a public official, right?
25
00:02:16,753 --> 00:02:20,093
I'm afraid it will be boring.
I mean, because of my writing.
26
00:02:20,093 --> 00:02:23,513
Of course. I mean,
I understood what you meant.
27
00:02:23,513 --> 00:02:28,758
I expected a more academic type,
in full costume, with toga and cap.
28
00:02:28,758 --> 00:02:33,430
- I see that Henry has defamed me.
- I wouldn't do it with that intention.
29
00:02:33,430 --> 00:02:35,148
- Shall I bring you a sherry?
- No, thank you.
30
00:02:35,148 --> 00:02:37,853
- I'm going to spend several hours doing this.
- He did it beautifully.
31
00:02:37,853 --> 00:02:39,686
Well, I like it.
32
00:02:40,528 --> 00:02:43,529
- Will you excuse me?
- Of course.
33
00:02:52,496 --> 00:02:54,322
Excuse me. Bendrix.
34
00:02:56,124 --> 00:02:59,290
- You're not leaving, are you?
- I have work to do, Henry.
35
00:02:59,290 --> 00:03:02,246
I envy writers this gift
to write what they think.
36
00:03:02,246 --> 00:03:04,578
But we often write
what we don't think about.
37
00:03:04,578 --> 00:03:08,171
I don't think I could do it.
Well, maybe by committing.
38
00:03:08,171 --> 00:03:10,630
Again, thank you.
And your wife is charming.
39
00:03:10,630 --> 00:03:13,125
- She helps me a lot.
- I'm sure of that.
40
00:03:13,125 --> 00:03:16,968
In fact, I think she could say more
about my life than I do.
41
00:03:16,968 --> 00:03:21,847
She is much more observant than me
and we have been married for 10 years.
42
00:03:22,353 --> 00:03:23,977
Maybe I should talk to her.
43
00:03:23,977 --> 00:03:26,683
Certainly. Why doesn't it suit her?
44
00:03:26,683 --> 00:03:29,938
- I think I'll do it. Goodbye.
- Goodnight.
45
00:03:34,195 --> 00:03:37,977
I'm glad you don't always drink sherry.
It's a boring drink.
46
00:03:38,531 --> 00:03:41,697
Well, actually, I don't even like it,
but for some people...
47
00:03:41,697 --> 00:03:44,072
Especially public servants?
48
00:03:44,536 --> 00:03:45,994
Especially.
49
00:03:50,540 --> 00:03:53,743
Did you want to ask me something?
50
00:03:53,743 --> 00:03:55,542
Yes.
51
00:03:55,542 --> 00:03:58,793
You know, regardless of what
creative a writer thinks he is,
52
00:03:58,793 --> 00:04:01,252
There are always certain things you have to know.
53
00:04:01,252 --> 00:04:04,341
In my novels... Which ones have you read?
54
00:04:05,635 --> 00:04:07,757
Well, I haven't read any.
55
00:04:09,847 --> 00:04:12,930
Well, let me think.
And the domestic routine?
56
00:04:12,930 --> 00:04:15,341
What time do you have breakfast?
Is it there at home?
57
00:04:15,341 --> 00:04:18,968
Typically around 8:30,
out on Saturdays.
58
00:04:19,730 --> 00:04:23,062
And Henry goes to the ministry
by metro or taxi?
59
00:04:23,482 --> 00:04:24,762
By bus.
60
00:04:27,569 --> 00:04:29,027
Listen.
61
00:04:29,027 --> 00:04:32,444
When your husband introduced us
and heard my name,
62
00:04:32,444 --> 00:04:34,522
said, "The writer?"
63
00:04:35,074 --> 00:04:38,738
Well, I read some reviews of your books.
64
00:04:38,738 --> 00:04:41,115
And you never wanted to go further?
65
00:04:41,115 --> 00:04:45,414
I don't like romances
and I have to read a lot of things to Henry.
66
00:04:45,414 --> 00:04:47,622
Documents and other things.
67
00:04:48,292 --> 00:04:51,661
Does he carry them in a briefcase with the royal coat of arms?
68
00:04:51,661 --> 00:04:56,214
Well he has a folder,
but I think it only has his initials.
69
00:04:58,259 --> 00:05:02,587
Henry would be very happy
If I wrote about it in a book.
70
00:05:02,587 --> 00:05:04,053
And you?
71
00:05:06,932 --> 00:05:10,714
And you have the confidence to tell me about him,
without having read my books?
72
00:05:14,021 --> 00:05:16,309
Confidence is a variable quality.
73
00:05:19,025 --> 00:05:20,732
Clean your mouth.
74
00:05:35,453 --> 00:05:37,991
The last time I saw her was in a mirror.
75
00:05:37,991 --> 00:05:39,325
He was?
76
00:05:40,749 --> 00:05:42,871
I was kissing someone.
77
00:05:43,168 --> 00:05:46,999
He was? Is that why you kissed me?
78
00:05:50,006 --> 00:05:51,749
I thought so.
79
00:05:53,009 --> 00:05:56,507
- Would you mind accompanying me?
- Our table is ready.
80
00:06:06,477 --> 00:06:10,474
I've never met a woman I was with
It's so nice to be in silence.
81
00:06:28,369 --> 00:06:32,068
You know, when I invited her to dinner
tonight,
82
00:06:33,122 --> 00:06:38,542
was with the intention of extorting information
She is the wife of a public servant.
83
00:06:39,628 --> 00:06:43,921
But I'm starting to think I'm
in unfamiliar territory without a map.
84
00:06:45,632 --> 00:06:47,920
It's not that unknown.
85
00:06:49,593 --> 00:06:53,969
At first I didn't think so either.
Maybe you're giving that impression.
86
00:06:56,348 --> 00:06:58,554
I can't imagine your life.
87
00:06:59,601 --> 00:07:01,427
It's quite vulgar.
88
00:07:01,978 --> 00:07:05,560
Of course, the war changed things.
89
00:07:06,898 --> 00:07:08,309
For me too.
90
00:07:10,567 --> 00:07:15,110
- Yes, I wanted to ask you...
- Why don't I wear a uniform?
91
00:07:15,110 --> 00:07:19,489
No, if he limps because of an injury.
92
00:07:20,409 --> 00:07:23,243
- Noticed.
- Do you care about that?
93
00:07:24,203 --> 00:07:27,287
It's only when I'm tired or tense.
94
00:07:28,832 --> 00:07:30,989
I was injured in the war, at the beginning.
95
00:07:32,585 --> 00:07:35,157
I saw him coming down the stairs.
96
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:37,498
There you go.
97
00:07:37,922 --> 00:07:41,041
I thought, "He's going away."
98
00:07:43,051 --> 00:07:45,505
- And I had hope...
- From what?
99
00:07:47,638 --> 00:07:50,175
I felt there was something left unsaid.
100
00:07:51,807 --> 00:07:53,847
So you realized earlier.
101
00:07:55,643 --> 00:07:56,758
Yes.
102
00:08:00,856 --> 00:08:02,481
There's a taxi there.
103
00:08:07,861 --> 00:08:09,059
Taxi!
104
00:08:15,993 --> 00:08:18,115
I can't take her home yet.
105
00:08:19,578 --> 00:08:20,693
No.
106
00:08:27,710 --> 00:08:29,453
To the Hotel Albion.
107
00:08:47,267 --> 00:08:49,389
- Good afternoon.
- Good afternoon, sir.
108
00:08:49,389 --> 00:08:52,014
Mrs. Miles is upstairs,
in the visiting room.
109
00:08:52,014 --> 00:08:54,558
- It's waiting for you.
- Thanks.
110
00:09:15,829 --> 00:09:19,245
It seemed like time didn't pass.
111
00:09:20,792 --> 00:09:24,291
- You were gone for almost a week, you know?
- Five days.
112
00:09:26,463 --> 00:09:28,371
I missed you so much.
113
00:09:31,008 --> 00:09:34,210
I've lived on your street for three years.
114
00:09:34,210 --> 00:09:38,880
Your house was just another one,
a number I have never seen.
115
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:42,672
And now, when you're outside,
the street seems to be completely empty.
116
00:09:43,726 --> 00:09:46,133
- Don't leave me again.
- No.
117
00:09:57,237 --> 00:10:01,648
- Collect it. I almost forgot.
- I didn't realize it was so late.
118
00:10:02,699 --> 00:10:05,271
I shouldn't have come here.
119
00:10:05,271 --> 00:10:09,198
- Why not?
- With that maid out there.
120
00:10:09,198 --> 00:10:10,485
She never enters without knocking.
121
00:10:10,485 --> 00:10:12,204
And Henry could have arrived.
122
00:10:12,204 --> 00:10:15,290
We would have heard you.
There are only a few stairs and they always creak.
123
00:10:15,290 --> 00:10:16,869
Even so, we...
124
00:10:19,670 --> 00:10:23,453
- You still haven't told me where you've been.
- In a very boring place.
125
00:10:24,215 --> 00:10:25,544
In Brighton.
126
00:10:26,467 --> 00:10:30,166
- What did you go there to do?
- Nothing interesting.
127
00:10:31,971 --> 00:10:34,461
Someone you've known for a long time?
128
00:10:35,391 --> 00:10:37,927
- Has it been longer than Henry?
- Much more.
129
00:10:39,184 --> 00:10:41,473
Does he know where you've been?
130
00:10:41,473 --> 00:10:44,930
- Not exactly...
- Secret visits, huh?
131
00:10:46,733 --> 00:10:48,107
In a way.
132
00:10:49,276 --> 00:10:52,193
You know, it's funny.
I could be asking these questions,
133
00:10:52,193 --> 00:10:56,061
in a different tone
and we would have a jealous scene.
134
00:10:56,061 --> 00:11:00,200
Where have you been? Who were you with?
What's his name?
135
00:11:02,578 --> 00:11:05,447
"What's his name?"
I was with my mother.
136
00:11:08,708 --> 00:11:11,957
- You're enjoying yourself.
- Why? What did you think?
137
00:11:13,252 --> 00:11:15,826
I wasn't thinking. I was just talking.
138
00:11:15,826 --> 00:11:17,664
Henry and her don't get along very well,
139
00:11:17,664 --> 00:11:21,705
so every now and then
I'm going to spend some time with her.
140
00:11:22,426 --> 00:11:23,671
Look.
141
00:11:24,928 --> 00:11:28,094
A shell that I brought
for my collection.
142
00:11:33,143 --> 00:11:35,550
I guess I'm jealous after all.
143
00:11:36,395 --> 00:11:40,094
I'm jealous of someone
who has known you for so long and so well.
144
00:11:40,094 --> 00:11:44,518
Who knew you when you were little
and defenseless and uncomplicated.
145
00:11:48,071 --> 00:11:49,269
Henry.
146
00:11:58,370 --> 00:12:00,907
- Sarah. Hello, Bendrix.
-Henry.
147
00:12:02,165 --> 00:12:04,869
How are you, dear? And how are you?
148
00:12:04,869 --> 00:12:06,536
How's the war going in your department?
149
00:12:06,536 --> 00:12:09,163
Well, I'm in the Pensions,
So I'm busy.
150
00:12:09,163 --> 00:12:10,747
Henry and his widows.
151
00:12:10,747 --> 00:12:12,795
They used to be elderly,
I didn't care much.
152
00:12:12,795 --> 00:12:17,128
But now, all these young widows,
most with so few memories.
153
00:12:17,128 --> 00:12:20,254
- It's very unsettling.
- Whiskey, gin?
154
00:12:20,254 --> 00:12:22,717
I should go.
I'm on fire watch tonight.
155
00:12:22,717 --> 00:12:25,640
- You need to drink. Whiskey.
- I know they do a good job.
156
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:30,219
I have a beautiful view of the rooftops
from London. If you were a painter you could use it.
157
00:12:30,219 --> 00:12:32,599
This reminds me
of something I wanted to suggest to him.
158
00:12:32,599 --> 00:12:35,059
- Something I could use.
- I?
159
00:12:35,059 --> 00:12:36,974
In your civil servant book.
160
00:12:36,974 --> 00:12:38,939
- Yes.
- Thank you, dear.
161
00:12:38,939 --> 00:12:40,686
Many of us have hobbies.
162
00:12:40,686 --> 00:12:43,447
It seems to be very common
among public servants,
163
00:12:43,447 --> 00:12:46,199
music, painting, writing.
164
00:12:46,199 --> 00:12:49,484
We even have an amateur geologist
and a pretty good poet.
165
00:12:49,484 --> 00:12:52,245
And yours, Henry? What is your hobby?
166
00:12:52,245 --> 00:12:55,826
I don't have any. I don't think I need it.
167
00:12:57,373 --> 00:12:58,867
I have to go. Thanks, Henry.
168
00:12:58,867 --> 00:13:00,831
It was very kind, thinking about my book.
169
00:13:00,831 --> 00:13:03,242
These things
They balance a character, don't they?
170
00:13:03,242 --> 00:13:07,664
- They help. Don't bother. I know the way.
- I'll accompany you.
171
00:13:15,054 --> 00:13:16,927
What is it, dear?
172
00:13:17,639 --> 00:13:20,723
- It didn't affect you?
- Affect me?
173
00:13:21,267 --> 00:13:22,974
You don't even know what I'm talking about, do you?
174
00:13:22,974 --> 00:13:26,013
- From Henry?
- For you, the moment is only worth it, Sarah.
175
00:13:26,013 --> 00:13:27,930
First with me and now with him.
176
00:13:27,930 --> 00:13:30,643
- Maurice, please.
- Not here, Sarah, never again.
177
00:13:30,643 --> 00:13:32,689
Anywhere but here.
178
00:13:38,905 --> 00:13:40,483
In the months we spent together,
179
00:13:40,483 --> 00:13:43,988
we explored almost all
the corners of London.
180
00:13:43,988 --> 00:13:48,072
Now I knew that for happiness or misfortune,
I was stuck with this woman,
181
00:13:48,072 --> 00:13:50,653
as long as she wanted me.
182
00:13:50,653 --> 00:13:53,617
And I was amazed that a love
where I entered so lightly,
183
00:13:53,617 --> 00:13:56,495
could become a profound
and permanent passion,
184
00:13:56,495 --> 00:13:59,076
which dominated my entire life.
185
00:13:59,076 --> 00:14:03,168
As others did, I convinced myself
that Sarah was a woman...
186
00:14:03,168 --> 00:14:07,004
who sought tranquility,
stability and eternal love.
187
00:14:07,004 --> 00:14:09,133
As long as it was with me.
188
00:14:09,846 --> 00:14:11,754
Isn't life absurd?
189
00:14:11,754 --> 00:14:13,756
Thinking that you can buy a happy day...
190
00:14:13,756 --> 00:14:16,173
with 10 liters of gasoline.
191
00:14:17,226 --> 00:14:20,096
Your friend has good taste.
Do you come here often?
192
00:14:20,096 --> 00:14:24,350
When I can. She is very hospitable.
Furthermore, he spends a lot of time outside.
193
00:14:25,941 --> 00:14:29,475
You are not happy
for making you quit your job?
194
00:14:30,403 --> 00:14:31,683
Do you remember when...
195
00:14:31,683 --> 00:14:34,186
I like it when you start a sentence
with: "Do you remember."
196
00:14:34,186 --> 00:14:35,443
Why?
197
00:14:35,782 --> 00:14:38,652
Well, continue our life together.
198
00:14:38,652 --> 00:14:41,991
It means we have a past,
as well as a gift.
199
00:14:41,991 --> 00:14:44,035
All we need is a future.
200
00:14:44,539 --> 00:14:47,741
We are not the only ones living
one day at a time.
201
00:14:49,667 --> 00:14:52,787
- What were you saying before?
- I don't know. Nonsense.
202
00:14:52,787 --> 00:14:54,289
I like nonsense.
203
00:14:54,289 --> 00:14:56,869
At first, everything is so serious and tense.
204
00:14:56,869 --> 00:15:00,131
Then comes the fun,
the nonsense. It tells me.
205
00:15:00,131 --> 00:15:02,256
- But I...
- Come on, tell me.
206
00:15:02,256 --> 00:15:07,549
Well I was thinking about that winter day
when we cross the fields...
207
00:15:07,549 --> 00:15:09,928
and everything was freezing.
208
00:15:09,928 --> 00:15:13,598
Even the beard on your chin
it was covered in ice.
209
00:15:13,598 --> 00:15:15,512
And there was a hole under a tree,
210
00:15:15,512 --> 00:15:18,225
where did you put a bunch of leaves
for me to lie down.
211
00:15:18,225 --> 00:15:20,804
And you hugged me and warmed me.
212
00:15:21,233 --> 00:15:24,566
And on the way back, we saw footprints...
213
00:15:24,566 --> 00:15:27,321
and we realized that someone had passed
very close to us.
214
00:15:27,321 --> 00:15:30,689
- We didn't even notice.
- You're making it up.
215
00:15:32,700 --> 00:15:35,617
It could be real.
With us anything could be real.
216
00:15:35,617 --> 00:15:38,276
What made you think about footprints?
217
00:15:38,276 --> 00:15:42,368
- I had to think of something.
- It couldn't have been imagination.
218
00:15:42,368 --> 00:15:46,324
Maurice, everyone imagines things,
It's not just the writers.
219
00:15:47,169 --> 00:15:51,036
It's so good to be here and I really love you.
220
00:15:51,923 --> 00:15:54,877
You say this as if to say:
"It's a beautiful day."
221
00:15:54,877 --> 00:15:56,296
And why not?
222
00:15:56,296 --> 00:15:59,469
It's a simple suit,
It's like saying the world is round,
223
00:15:59,469 --> 00:16:02,471
that the grass is green
or that the rain is wet.
224
00:16:02,471 --> 00:16:04,714
Isn't there a special way?
225
00:16:05,475 --> 00:16:07,432
Well, let me see.
226
00:16:08,478 --> 00:16:11,846
It's not because you're beautiful that you're not.
227
00:16:11,846 --> 00:16:13,895
It's not because you're smart, what are you.
228
00:16:13,895 --> 00:16:15,641
It's not why, but how.
229
00:16:17,317 --> 00:16:19,191
It's like salt in food.
230
00:16:21,237 --> 00:16:25,104
When you're not with me
everything seems tasteless and tasteless.
231
00:16:26,158 --> 00:16:28,992
Well, Miss Palmer,
I kept my word.
232
00:16:28,992 --> 00:16:32,527
But I had to hide behind a hedge,
when the vicar passed by.
233
00:16:32,527 --> 00:16:34,992
But I promised him the first
that I could give you.
234
00:16:34,992 --> 00:16:37,785
And it's a beauty, if I do say so myself.
235
00:16:38,459 --> 00:16:40,415
Why, it's Mrs. Miles!
236
00:16:40,415 --> 00:16:43,039
Yes, it's a pleasure to see you again,
Mrs. Tomkins.
237
00:16:43,039 --> 00:16:45,286
Well, equally.
238
00:16:45,286 --> 00:16:48,795
And this time, I brought Mr. Miles. Great.
239
00:16:48,795 --> 00:16:52,086
I hope they cool off in the air
from the field, after so many bombs.
240
00:16:52,086 --> 00:16:55,344
- He needed a vacation.
- I'm glad I kept that.
241
00:16:55,344 --> 00:16:58,384
There is no person I would like more
to give this pleasure,
242
00:16:58,384 --> 00:17:00,762
than one of the men
who is winning the war.
243
00:17:00,762 --> 00:17:02,393
Remember, we will win.
244
00:17:02,393 --> 00:17:04,516
Honey, you should be grateful.
245
00:17:04,516 --> 00:17:06,892
- It's very kind.
- I'll put this in the meat chest.
246
00:17:06,892 --> 00:17:09,268
- May I, Mrs. Miles?
- Yes, thank you, Mrs. Tomkins.
247
00:17:09,268 --> 00:17:13,223
With pleasure.
And it's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Miles.
248
00:17:13,223 --> 00:17:16,272
Baby, do you trust me
to roast you a chicken?
249
00:17:16,272 --> 00:17:18,853
The water is almost boiling, I make the tea.
250
00:17:18,853 --> 00:17:21,617
Thanks. She's a good woman.
251
00:17:21,617 --> 00:17:24,949
But I think you could have been
more friendly towards her.
252
00:17:24,949 --> 00:17:29,033
What did you want me to do? To invite her
Having tea with the Miles?
253
00:17:29,033 --> 00:17:31,827
Why are you angry? What did I do?
254
00:17:32,584 --> 00:17:36,283
That you might ask...
You let that woman...
255
00:17:36,283 --> 00:17:39,378
But it was she who was mistaken,
darling. Sorry.
256
00:17:39,378 --> 00:17:41,290
If I explained it to her, it would embarrass her,
257
00:17:41,290 --> 00:17:43,836
besides, it wouldn't have been kind.
258
00:17:43,836 --> 00:17:46,760
- You're always kind, aren't you, Sarah?
- Maurice, please.
259
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:48,172
You have to put up with me.
260
00:17:48,172 --> 00:17:51,380
It was the first time I saw you lie.
That is, as far as I know.
261
00:17:51,380 --> 00:17:55,137
Never you, Maurice. Just the truth, always.
262
00:17:55,559 --> 00:17:58,049
Even as you say this,
your face is frank.
263
00:17:58,049 --> 00:17:59,970
Just like when you lied to that woman.
264
00:17:59,970 --> 00:18:04,355
Ready. You can sit
and get comfortable.
265
00:18:05,108 --> 00:18:08,311
I always tell my husband,
when we have tea by the fireplace:
266
00:18:08,311 --> 00:18:10,276
"It's the best part of the day."
267
00:18:10,276 --> 00:18:13,813
Thank you, Mrs. Tomkins.
She was very attentive.
268
00:18:13,813 --> 00:18:16,443
- I'm walking. Goodbye, Mrs. Miles.
- Goodbye.
269
00:18:16,443 --> 00:18:18,989
- Goodbye, Mr. Miles.
- Goodbye.
270
00:18:31,711 --> 00:18:34,202
May I congratulate you on your performance?
271
00:18:34,202 --> 00:18:37,499
Maurice, darling, are you doing
a storm in a teacup.
272
00:18:37,499 --> 00:18:41,422
She was wrong and I didn't correct her.
What's the harm?
273
00:18:41,422 --> 00:18:43,918
It's just the will with which you did it.
274
00:18:43,918 --> 00:18:47,594
You managed to stay there
looking at me like I'm Henry.
275
00:18:47,594 --> 00:18:49,971
No love in the eyes.
276
00:18:49,971 --> 00:18:53,676
I felt transformed into your boring husband
and you in mine...
277
00:18:53,676 --> 00:18:55,228
Maurice.
278
00:18:55,228 --> 00:18:59,261
And that story about the day in the woods.
I don't believe you invented it.
279
00:18:59,261 --> 00:19:01,563
You don't have that much imagination.
280
00:19:01,563 --> 00:19:04,320
Was it something that happened to you, with whom?
281
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:06,728
- Or don't you even remember?
- You have no right...
282
00:19:06,728 --> 00:19:08,897
I don't have any rights
in relation to you.
283
00:19:08,897 --> 00:19:12,821
I'm just a passenger in your life,
someone you picked up along the way...
284
00:19:12,821 --> 00:19:15,910
and that you will let go whenever you feel like it.
285
00:19:23,543 --> 00:19:27,242
My poor Maurice, how you torment yourself.
286
00:19:30,548 --> 00:19:34,794
It's the uncertainty of being apart
and that Henry exists.
287
00:19:37,971 --> 00:19:40,757
- Do you love me?
- Yes.
288
00:19:42,015 --> 00:19:43,924
Why do you stay with him?
289
00:19:45,350 --> 00:19:46,809
I need time.
290
00:19:47,061 --> 00:19:49,053
Time? Time for what?
291
00:19:50,062 --> 00:19:51,521
Time to trust.
292
00:19:52,648 --> 00:19:54,936
You don't trust me.
293
00:19:55,525 --> 00:19:58,691
It's because we're not always together.
294
00:19:58,691 --> 00:20:02,822
It's because I'm not the man
for this hidden love.
295
00:20:03,740 --> 00:20:08,033
Sarah, if we were married,
we could be happy forever.
296
00:20:08,033 --> 00:20:11,284
We can't just
be happy one day at a time?
297
00:20:38,100 --> 00:20:39,427
Between.
298
00:20:40,643 --> 00:20:43,216
- Sarah.
- After all, I arrived too early.
299
00:20:43,216 --> 00:20:47,011
No. I lost track of time.
I quit work now.
300
00:20:52,152 --> 00:20:53,645
You're beautiful.
301
00:20:53,645 --> 00:20:57,319
I couldn't resist them.
Aren't the flowers remarkable?
302
00:20:57,319 --> 00:21:00,690
The whole world in chaos
and they continue to bloom.
303
00:21:00,690 --> 00:21:02,526
Give me some faith.
304
00:21:02,526 --> 00:21:04,693
- In what?
- I don't know.
305
00:21:04,693 --> 00:21:09,281
Lilacs bloom every year
and the apple trees keep bearing apples.
306
00:21:10,749 --> 00:21:13,371
It's impossible for anyone to be angry
on a day like this.
307
00:21:13,371 --> 00:21:16,330
- I'm not.
- I didn't talk about you.
308
00:21:17,129 --> 00:21:19,417
All those street speakers in the park.
309
00:21:19,417 --> 00:21:22,790
I passed by there
and they were all mad about something.
310
00:21:22,790 --> 00:21:26,086
Capitalism, military service, foreign aid.
311
00:21:26,086 --> 00:21:28,929
There was even a man
who was angry with God.
312
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:30,795
Yes.
313
00:21:30,795 --> 00:21:33,843
I was actually a little scared.
when listening to him.
314
00:21:33,843 --> 00:21:39,093
It seemed risky to me, at a time like this,
treat God badly.
315
00:21:39,730 --> 00:21:43,098
You must be imagining Him
ready to shoot lightning.
316
00:21:43,098 --> 00:21:46,026
Don't believe in these things,
right, Sarah?
317
00:21:46,026 --> 00:21:48,779
It's like not going under stairs.
318
00:21:48,779 --> 00:21:52,313
No, but I also don't pass
under stairs.
319
00:21:54,532 --> 00:21:59,110
Go there. Get out of your corner.
You've already armed yourself enough.
320
00:22:06,542 --> 00:22:10,491
I was so looking forward to these days together,
321
00:22:10,491 --> 00:22:13,920
that I came to the window about twelve times
since noon.
322
00:22:27,850 --> 00:22:29,806
- I can't.
- You can't what?
323
00:22:29,806 --> 00:22:32,431
Tousle you. You just came
of the hairdresser.
324
00:22:32,431 --> 00:22:35,604
- I didn't go.
- Then I can make you disheveled.
325
00:22:39,484 --> 00:22:41,689
Why didn't you go to the hairdresser?
326
00:22:41,689 --> 00:22:43,816
I shuffled the days.
327
00:22:43,816 --> 00:22:45,730
It was the same with the dentist
last week.
328
00:22:45,730 --> 00:22:47,196
Yes I know.
329
00:22:47,196 --> 00:22:49,902
- You're a lost cause.
- Quite a lot.
330
00:22:54,995 --> 00:22:58,244
If you saw that you were free,
you could have come here.
331
00:22:58,244 --> 00:23:02,458
- You said you were going to work all day.
- And so I did.
332
00:23:04,378 --> 00:23:07,046
Shall we have dinner at Ruhl's?
333
00:23:07,046 --> 00:23:09,288
What if you booked a table
while I get ready?
334
00:23:09,288 --> 00:23:10,791
It's fine.
335
00:23:39,238 --> 00:23:42,855
They don't appear to be normal bombs.
There is something different.
336
00:23:42,855 --> 00:23:45,440
Please don't go to the window.
It's dangerous.
337
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,609
- I'll be careful.
- Please.
338
00:23:49,788 --> 00:23:53,321
They look like planes on fire, but they're not.
339
00:23:53,321 --> 00:23:55,158
I don't know what...
340
00:23:55,917 --> 00:23:57,909
It's best to get out of here while it's calm.
341
00:23:57,909 --> 00:24:00,789
- I don't like the look of that.
- No, I prefer to stay.
342
00:24:00,789 --> 00:24:02,753
Imagine that something happens and you are here.
343
00:24:02,753 --> 00:24:06,503
- I'll cross the square with you.
- Let me stay with you.
344
00:24:06,503 --> 00:24:09,129
If you don't go home, let's go to the basement.
It's safer.
345
00:24:09,129 --> 00:24:10,760
Your ladyship may be there.
I can't see her.
346
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:13,383
- I'll go and see.
- Maurice, you don't see. Don't leave me.
347
00:24:13,383 --> 00:24:15,299
I'll be right back.
348
00:24:18,726 --> 00:24:22,722
I have to go, Sarah, while there's still time.
I'll be right back.
349
00:25:42,498 --> 00:25:43,743
Sarah?
350
00:25:47,919 --> 00:25:49,163
Sarah?
351
00:25:53,881 --> 00:25:55,044
You.
352
00:25:56,842 --> 00:25:59,712
My God, Maurice, you're alive!
353
00:26:02,639 --> 00:26:05,129
It's really you. You're not dead.
354
00:26:05,724 --> 00:26:10,101
But you are hurt.
Come here, let me wash your face.
355
00:26:25,489 --> 00:26:30,233
- What were you doing kneeling?
- I don't know. I was praying, I think.
356
00:26:32,369 --> 00:26:34,777
You should have gone down there.
357
00:26:34,777 --> 00:26:38,322
I went, but I didn't see you.
358
00:26:38,708 --> 00:26:41,910
Just your arm stretched out under the door.
359
00:26:41,910 --> 00:26:44,788
I thought you were dead.
I couldn't lift the door.
360
00:26:44,788 --> 00:26:47,167
I was sure you were dead.
361
00:26:48,257 --> 00:26:50,213
The door wasn't holding me back.
362
00:26:50,213 --> 00:26:53,798
At least it didn't seem to be
when I dragged myself out.
363
00:26:54,511 --> 00:26:58,425
- How long was I down there?
- I don't know. Five, ten minutes.
364
00:27:00,891 --> 00:27:04,306
I had such a strange feeling
when I came to my senses.
365
00:27:05,103 --> 00:27:10,344
A beautiful feeling of space and distance,
as if coming from a long journey.
366
00:27:12,024 --> 00:27:15,440
- I wish I remembered.
- From what?
367
00:27:17,279 --> 00:27:20,646
I don't really know. It was like a dream.
368
00:27:22,157 --> 00:27:25,276
It all seems a little unreal,
even you.
369
00:27:29,580 --> 00:27:30,990
I have to go.
370
00:27:36,502 --> 00:27:39,288
I don't like that you see bombs falling.
371
00:27:39,288 --> 00:27:43,043
But I also think you shouldn't
be here. I cross the square with you.
372
00:27:43,043 --> 00:27:45,254
No, Maurice. Please.
373
00:27:46,092 --> 00:27:49,709
It's almost daytime.
Besides, you got a big shock.
374
00:27:50,178 --> 00:27:53,511
I'm starting to think I had it. See you tomorrow?
375
00:27:54,599 --> 00:27:56,141
I don't know.
376
00:28:03,606 --> 00:28:07,603
So this is the end of the three days
why we waited together.
377
00:28:08,026 --> 00:28:09,568
Yes, it's the end.
378
00:28:11,319 --> 00:28:13,193
See you tomorrow.
379
00:28:14,030 --> 00:28:15,903
Maybe it's not safe.
380
00:28:15,903 --> 00:28:17,697
I survived that.
381
00:28:19,076 --> 00:28:20,570
Yes, you survived.
382
00:28:22,203 --> 00:28:24,278
But when will I see you?
383
00:28:27,081 --> 00:28:29,158
Don't be so scared.
384
00:28:29,750 --> 00:28:33,414
Love doesn't end just because we don't see each other.
385
00:28:46,972 --> 00:28:47,723
Sarah!
386
00:29:08,905 --> 00:29:10,483
She had disappeared.
387
00:29:10,483 --> 00:29:14,440
It was almost as if everything
was happening in a nightmare.
388
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:17,737
But then they started to notice
the effects of the bomb,
389
00:29:17,737 --> 00:29:20,912
I discovered I couldn't think
clearly on Sarah.
390
00:29:20,912 --> 00:29:24,697
In the following days, I had what the doctors
they call it "post-traumatic shock."
391
00:29:24,697 --> 00:29:26,619
I had bruises from my shoulders to my knees...
392
00:29:26,619 --> 00:29:30,659
and they didn't understand why they hadn't
all broken bones.
393
00:29:30,659 --> 00:29:34,668
But worse than that
was unable to contact Sarah.
394
00:29:35,467 --> 00:29:38,421
As soon as I could, I tried calling him.
395
00:29:42,138 --> 00:29:43,764
But it was always the same thing.
396
00:29:43,764 --> 00:29:45,924
Mrs. Miles isn't home.
397
00:29:46,142 --> 00:29:48,264
Mrs. Miles left no message.
398
00:29:48,264 --> 00:29:50,510
Mrs. Miles is out.
399
00:29:51,813 --> 00:29:53,852
And then the memory returned,
400
00:29:53,852 --> 00:29:59,229
the memory of that expression of Sarah,
when he said, "Maurice, you're not dead."
401
00:29:59,229 --> 00:30:01,110
And suddenly I knew.
402
00:30:01,110 --> 00:30:03,567
I knew she lied to me
with that expertise of hers,
403
00:30:03,567 --> 00:30:05,861
when he said he loved me.
404
00:30:09,868 --> 00:30:12,026
"Maurice, you're not dead," she said.
405
00:30:12,026 --> 00:30:15,323
And all the while,
she wished for my death,
406
00:30:15,323 --> 00:30:18,284
so you can leave me
with a clear conscience.
407
00:30:18,284 --> 00:30:21,126
And with that thought,
my jealousy became hate.
408
00:30:21,126 --> 00:30:24,993
And my hate turned to me
and I even thought about committing suicide.
409
00:30:24,993 --> 00:30:27,625
But the moment has passed
and I decided to leave,
410
00:30:27,625 --> 00:30:30,669
forget about Sarah and that he loved her.
411
00:30:31,510 --> 00:30:33,337
A year has passed.
412
00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:37,669
The war was over and the lights
they started to come back.
413
00:30:37,669 --> 00:30:40,255
I went back to my apartment in the square,
414
00:30:40,255 --> 00:30:43,932
since he was convinced
that I had taken Sarah out of my life.
415
00:30:43,932 --> 00:30:47,968
I thought about her rarely
and always with hate.
416
00:30:49,232 --> 00:30:53,524
I had been working all day
in my new book, but it had gone wrong.
417
00:30:53,524 --> 00:30:54,938
The words were heavy...
418
00:30:54,938 --> 00:30:58,360
and I extracted them until I fell from exhaustion.
419
00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:02,657
I needed to stretch my legs
and escape from my own company.
420
00:31:02,657 --> 00:31:07,202
In the middle of the square,
I saw Henry Miles walking in front of me.
421
00:31:07,202 --> 00:31:12,528
My first instinct was to avoid him, because
he had convinced me that he hated Henry too,
422
00:31:12,528 --> 00:31:15,744
as much as she hated his wife, Sarah.
423
00:31:15,744 --> 00:31:18,456
And then it was as if a hand
pull my arm,
424
00:31:18,456 --> 00:31:20,585
as if a voice whispered to me:
425
00:31:20,585 --> 00:31:23,958
"Talk to him. Go to him. Talk to him."
426
00:31:27,802 --> 00:31:31,218
-Henry!
-Bendrix.
427
00:31:31,514 --> 00:31:34,514
I never saw him again. What does the rain do?
428
00:31:34,514 --> 00:31:38,928
I just wanted to get some air. And Sarah left.
429
00:31:38,928 --> 00:31:42,851
- Did you go to the cinema?
- No. It rarely goes.
430
00:31:43,189 --> 00:31:44,683
Used to go.
431
00:31:47,442 --> 00:31:49,898
We haven't seen you in a long time, Bendrix.
432
00:31:49,898 --> 00:31:52,109
- A long time ago.
- Well, well.
433
00:31:54,406 --> 00:31:56,778
They seem happy, don't they?
434
00:31:56,778 --> 00:31:59,357
When we are unhappy,
We envy other people's happiness.
435
00:31:59,357 --> 00:32:01,242
Are you unhappy?
436
00:32:01,995 --> 00:32:04,949
I'm worried.
I'm worried about Sarah.
437
00:32:04,949 --> 00:32:07,198
- Is she sick?
- No.
438
00:32:08,084 --> 00:32:10,490
I don't think so, not sick.
439
00:32:11,962 --> 00:32:15,543
I can't talk here, Bendrix.
Come home with me.
440
00:32:15,543 --> 00:32:17,373
Will Sarah come back?
441
00:32:17,924 --> 00:32:19,667
I don't think so.
442
00:32:23,304 --> 00:32:25,046
Come in, Bendrix.
443
00:32:28,099 --> 00:32:28,850
Sarah.
444
00:32:32,769 --> 00:32:35,935
It hasn't arrived yet. Take off your coat, Bendrix.
445
00:32:42,401 --> 00:32:44,145
Let's go here.
446
00:32:55,411 --> 00:32:59,242
- I don't think I've ever seen this room.
- It's my office.
447
00:33:00,290 --> 00:33:03,789
- Do you spend a lot of time here?
- Yes, quite a lot.
448
00:33:05,002 --> 00:33:06,875
Whenever Sarah goes out.
449
00:33:13,925 --> 00:33:17,625
- Bendrix, I'm afraid.
- What are you afraid of?
450
00:33:19,221 --> 00:33:23,632
Well I always thought the worst thing
what a man could do,
451
00:33:24,267 --> 00:33:26,139
the worst of all...
452
00:33:26,139 --> 00:33:28,799
You know you can trust me, Henry.
453
00:33:33,940 --> 00:33:35,767
Read this, Bendrix.
454
00:33:39,987 --> 00:33:42,026
"In response to your request,
455
00:33:42,026 --> 00:33:46,691
"I suggest you use the services
of a man named Savage,
456
00:33:47,284 --> 00:33:49,360
"Vigo Street, 159.
457
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:54,197
"All reports indicate
who has a reputation for being skillful and discreet."
458
00:33:54,789 --> 00:33:57,624
I didn't do anything,
but that letter is on my desk...
459
00:33:57,624 --> 00:33:59,333
to remind me.
460
00:33:59,333 --> 00:34:00,580
It looks stupid,
461
00:34:00,580 --> 00:34:03,076
but I trust blindly
that Sarah won't read it.
462
00:34:03,076 --> 00:34:07,333
Come in here a lot of times a day,
but I can trust her.
463
00:34:07,842 --> 00:34:11,423
She's gone for a walk now, Bendrix.
One turn.
464
00:34:12,094 --> 00:34:15,427
Want a private detective
to follow Sarah?
465
00:34:15,427 --> 00:34:16,628
Yes.
466
00:34:17,140 --> 00:34:21,006
They always say that the husband is
the last person to know.
467
00:34:21,006 --> 00:34:23,010
Frankly, Henry, you amaze me.
468
00:34:23,010 --> 00:34:26,685
One of the most respected
Her Majesty's public servants.
469
00:34:26,685 --> 00:34:30,639
I thought your head
She was as straight as her pants.
470
00:34:30,639 --> 00:34:33,306
Today when I see you in the square
I thought if I told her...
471
00:34:33,306 --> 00:34:37,233
and if you laughed at me,
Maybe he could burn the letter.
472
00:34:38,073 --> 00:34:41,737
- You think I'm crazy, don't you?
- No, I don't think so, Henry.
473
00:34:41,737 --> 00:34:44,232
After all, Sarah is human.
474
00:34:44,232 --> 00:34:47,114
- Do you think it's possible?
- Well, I...
475
00:34:47,114 --> 00:34:49,742
I always thought it was
a good friend of hers, Bendrix.
476
00:34:49,742 --> 00:34:52,535
I just said it was possible, Henry.
477
00:34:52,535 --> 00:34:54,416
I know. Sorry.
478
00:34:55,252 --> 00:34:58,336
But don't imagine
How these months have been.
479
00:34:58,336 --> 00:35:00,045
I never know where he is or what he is doing.
480
00:35:00,045 --> 00:35:02,918
And he stays away for hours, without explanations.
481
00:35:02,918 --> 00:35:05,047
Why don't you go talk to Mr. Savage?
482
00:35:05,047 --> 00:35:06,843
Then you would know.
483
00:35:07,178 --> 00:35:10,842
But imagine, sitting there
in front of a desk,
484
00:35:10,842 --> 00:35:14,880
where everyone sat
Are other husbands jealous? I couldn't.
485
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,348
So why don't you let me go, Henry?
486
00:35:18,228 --> 00:35:21,015
- You?
- I could pretend I was a jealous lover.
487
00:35:21,015 --> 00:35:24,224
They are less ridiculous
than jealous husbands.
488
00:35:25,234 --> 00:35:29,183
- Would you do that for me, Bendrix?
- Of course.
489
00:35:30,654 --> 00:35:32,812
I don't know what's going on in my head.
490
00:35:32,812 --> 00:35:35,112
You don't ask for a friend
spying on our wife,
491
00:35:35,112 --> 00:35:37,441
friend who pretends to be her lover.
492
00:35:37,441 --> 00:35:40,784
It's not done, but every day
things are done that are not done.
493
00:35:40,784 --> 00:35:42,993
- I've done almost all of them.
- No.
494
00:35:42,993 --> 00:35:47,658
He's a good guy, Bendrix, but he's unthinkable.
It's even unthinkable.
495
00:35:47,658 --> 00:35:51,450
I just needed to talk
to clarify ideas.
496
00:35:51,450 --> 00:35:54,462
It's my nerves,
I haven't been sleeping well, you know.
497
00:35:54,462 --> 00:35:56,586
But I feel better now.
498
00:35:58,592 --> 00:36:01,165
Ready. Let me pour you a glass.
499
00:36:06,098 --> 00:36:10,260
The name was Savage, Rua Vigo, 159.
500
00:36:13,812 --> 00:36:15,354
Here's Sarah.
501
00:36:16,022 --> 00:36:18,809
No, it's the maid. It came out tonight.
502
00:36:18,809 --> 00:36:20,773
These are Sarah's footsteps.
503
00:36:27,740 --> 00:36:28,522
You.
504
00:36:30,033 --> 00:36:31,491
It's good to see you.
505
00:36:31,491 --> 00:36:33,947
Sarah, darling.
I met Bendrix in the square.
506
00:36:33,947 --> 00:36:37,155
And brought him out for a drink
and we talk.
507
00:36:37,155 --> 00:36:38,906
How did you get so wet?
508
00:36:38,906 --> 00:36:42,248
You know, one of these days
you catch a bad cold.
509
00:36:42,248 --> 00:36:44,492
I went for a walk.
510
00:36:45,462 --> 00:36:47,584
Beautiful night for a walk.
511
00:36:51,466 --> 00:36:52,877
Goodnight.
512
00:37:09,563 --> 00:37:12,432
I assume we are talking
from Mrs. Bendrix.
513
00:37:12,432 --> 00:37:15,608
No, it's the wife of a friend of mine.
514
00:37:16,068 --> 00:37:18,025
Her husband thinks she is cheating on him.
515
00:37:18,025 --> 00:37:21,112
- You said your husband sent you here?
- No.
516
00:37:21,739 --> 00:37:24,490
- So you and madam are...
- No.
517
00:37:24,490 --> 00:37:27,658
I saw her once in over a year.
518
00:37:28,995 --> 00:37:33,205
I don't quite understand.
He told me it was a case of surveillance.
519
00:37:33,205 --> 00:37:35,862
Suspicion or curiosity
can't that be worth it?
520
00:37:35,862 --> 00:37:39,243
If you prefer to think of me
like one of your jealous clients...
521
00:37:39,243 --> 00:37:43,083
So please
There is nothing wrong with jealousy.
522
00:37:43,083 --> 00:37:46,831
I see it as the sign of true love.
523
00:37:47,509 --> 00:37:51,291
Indeed, my dear sir,
This completes the circle.
524
00:37:52,012 --> 00:37:57,052
A person cannot be jealous
without being in love.
525
00:37:57,808 --> 00:38:02,802
Being in love is wanting
and to desire is to want to possess.
526
00:38:02,802 --> 00:38:04,971
And wanting to possess is wanting to protect.
527
00:38:04,971 --> 00:38:08,645
And wanting to protect is suspicious of others.
528
00:38:08,645 --> 00:38:12,860
And being suspicious of others is jealousy.
529
00:38:13,529 --> 00:38:17,395
See, everything is linked to love,
530
00:38:17,990 --> 00:38:20,659
the noblest human frailty.
531
00:38:21,576 --> 00:38:26,368
Furthermore, without that noble emotion
we would be unemployed in a week.
532
00:38:26,621 --> 00:38:28,413
I don't know your rates.
533
00:38:28,413 --> 00:38:30,455
Three guineas a day plus expenses,
534
00:38:30,455 --> 00:38:33,957
which, of course, have to be approved,
like the occasional coffee.
535
00:39:01,648 --> 00:39:03,640
I am. Is Mrs. Miles in?
536
00:39:07,111 --> 00:39:09,019
What time do you think you'll be back?
537
00:39:09,019 --> 00:39:10,689
Around 2:30 pm.
538
00:39:11,739 --> 00:39:15,190
So, if I can, I'll call again. Thanks.
539
00:39:48,267 --> 00:39:49,512
Sarah.
540
00:39:51,519 --> 00:39:55,268
It's a surprise to meet
twice in such a short time.
541
00:39:56,357 --> 00:39:59,061
Yes, we don't usually meet.
542
00:40:00,526 --> 00:40:02,150
I've been away.
543
00:40:03,571 --> 00:40:07,319
- You look good.
- Thanks. You too.
544
00:40:08,908 --> 00:40:11,695
It's not possible. I have a horrible cold.
545
00:40:11,695 --> 00:40:13,943
You walk down the street in bad weather.
546
00:40:14,537 --> 00:40:17,074
- Are you going home?
- I go.
547
00:40:18,916 --> 00:40:22,200
- Are you writing a new book?
- I am.
548
00:40:23,711 --> 00:40:27,838
Did you finish the other one? The one
of the civil servant, who I hated?
549
00:40:27,838 --> 00:40:29,002
No.
550
00:40:29,966 --> 00:40:32,172
I was afraid you were done.
551
00:40:32,172 --> 00:40:36,505
A book takes a year to write.
It's difficult to write it just for revenge.
552
00:40:36,505 --> 00:40:39,596
If you knew how little you have
to avenge you.
553
00:40:40,265 --> 00:40:41,676
I am joking.
554
00:40:42,141 --> 00:40:46,470
We spent a lot of time together. Now
we can see each other as old friends.
555
00:40:46,470 --> 00:40:50,262
After all, we are adults.
We knew it had to end.
556
00:40:51,857 --> 00:40:54,941
What happened to us, Sarah?
Why haven't I seen you this whole time?
557
00:40:54,941 --> 00:40:56,818
What did I do?
558
00:40:56,818 --> 00:40:59,523
Nothing. You didn't do anything.
559
00:41:00,781 --> 00:41:03,236
It was all my fault. I...
560
00:41:12,414 --> 00:41:15,249
- Sorry.
- You should take care of this.
561
00:41:16,751 --> 00:41:18,375
I'll be fine.
562
00:41:19,420 --> 00:41:21,329
Goodbye, Maurice.
563
00:41:42,521 --> 00:41:43,801
Between.
564
00:41:45,815 --> 00:41:47,807
A Mr. Parkis to you.
565
00:41:53,905 --> 00:41:55,980
I'm Mr. Savage's employee.
566
00:41:55,980 --> 00:41:59,323
Yes. Come in. I was finishing shaving.
567
00:41:59,323 --> 00:42:01,283
Take a cigarette. They're on the table.
568
00:42:01,283 --> 00:42:03,694
No, sir, I'm on duty.
569
00:42:03,694 --> 00:42:06,194
Only if it was for coverage reasons.
570
00:42:06,194 --> 00:42:09,989
- Now he's not on duty.
- Yes, while I make my report.
571
00:42:09,989 --> 00:42:14,543
- Do you have anything to report?
- It's not exactly a blank slate.
572
00:42:16,422 --> 00:42:19,375
Well, sit down. It's making me uneasy.
573
00:42:36,979 --> 00:42:41,225
- May I begin, sir?
- Yes. Go ahead. I'm really running out.
574
00:42:42,609 --> 00:42:46,652
I checked, later I will explain how,
575
00:42:46,652 --> 00:42:51,279
that the person in question was having lunch
in a restaurant called The Bagatelle,
576
00:42:51,279 --> 00:42:56,191
I thought it was likely that she was having lunch
with the other person in question.
577
00:42:56,191 --> 00:42:58,158
- That's why the boy and I...
- The "boy"?
578
00:42:58,158 --> 00:42:59,870
Yes. He helps me when there are no classes.
579
00:42:59,870 --> 00:43:01,782
I'm training him in the profession.
580
00:43:01,782 --> 00:43:04,198
- How old are you?
- He's already 12 years old.
581
00:43:04,198 --> 00:43:05,666
A kid can be very useful.
582
00:43:05,666 --> 00:43:08,158
It costs nothing,
apart from the occasional comic strip.
583
00:43:08,158 --> 00:43:12,250
Besides, nobody notices him.
Boys are born strays.
584
00:43:12,589 --> 00:43:14,214
A strange job for a boy.
585
00:43:14,214 --> 00:43:17,750
Well, sir, he doesn't realize
the true meaning, you know?
586
00:43:17,750 --> 00:43:20,132
I mean, if I were to walk into a room,
587
00:43:20,132 --> 00:43:23,671
Of course I didn't take it with me.
His mother died.
588
00:43:24,140 --> 00:43:26,975
Well, back to the job at hand.
589
00:43:26,975 --> 00:43:30,178
I kept watch and didn't have to wait long,
590
00:43:30,178 --> 00:43:32,760
until the person in question leaves.
591
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:34,763
But she was coming alone, sir.
592
00:43:34,763 --> 00:43:36,137
Of course, it's customary...
593
00:43:36,137 --> 00:43:39,566
that people in that situation
separate inside the restaurant.
594
00:43:39,566 --> 00:43:43,898
To quote an old saying, if I may:
"Practice makes precaution."
595
00:43:43,898 --> 00:43:45,399
And then?
596
00:43:45,907 --> 00:43:48,576
Then he called a taxi.
597
00:43:48,576 --> 00:43:52,074
And, obviously, I listened
to hear the address.
598
00:43:52,074 --> 00:43:54,319
- Yes?
- But she changed her mind...
599
00:43:54,319 --> 00:43:57,117
and left hurriedly.
600
00:43:57,117 --> 00:44:00,373
Me and my boy follow her
at a discreet distance.
601
00:44:00,835 --> 00:44:04,333
I was very disappointed
when I saw her catch a bus.
602
00:44:04,333 --> 00:44:05,915
I almost abandoned the research.
603
00:44:05,915 --> 00:44:08,542
It is useless to follow a lady home,
if I make myself understood.
604
00:44:08,542 --> 00:44:13,424
But in an impulsive gesture, so to speak,
Me and my boy got on the bus.
605
00:44:13,424 --> 00:44:16,630
But as he left, he took a few steps...
606
00:44:16,630 --> 00:44:20,137
and found a gentleman waiting for her,
obviously by combination,
607
00:44:20,137 --> 00:44:22,347
although he pretended to be surprised.
608
00:44:22,347 --> 00:44:24,012
It's an old trick, you know?
609
00:44:24,012 --> 00:44:28,313
They greeted each other
casually, indifferently.
610
00:44:28,313 --> 00:44:31,351
A pathetic performance, I thought.
And so they continued.
611
00:44:31,351 --> 00:44:33,517
We followed them as they walked...
612
00:44:33,517 --> 00:44:35,353
To her house.
613
00:44:35,778 --> 00:44:37,983
Well, you are very sharp.
614
00:44:37,983 --> 00:44:44,025
I was under the impression that there was
a great emotion in the conversation.
615
00:44:44,535 --> 00:44:46,527
- On both sides?
- Yes sir.
616
00:44:46,527 --> 00:44:50,947
So the gentleman did, what did I
It seemed like a desperate request.
617
00:44:52,415 --> 00:44:53,660
So, that's what it felt like.
618
00:44:53,660 --> 00:44:56,370
Oh, my boy surpassed them
playing with the ball.
619
00:44:56,370 --> 00:45:01,002
And you know, sir, he said
that the lady was almost crying.
620
00:45:02,924 --> 00:45:05,758
- Is it everything?
- Just one more thing, sir.
621
00:45:05,758 --> 00:45:10,836
After the incident, I thought the gentleman
were to kiss the person in question.
622
00:45:10,836 --> 00:45:15,306
But the moment passed and they parted,
following opposite directions.
623
00:45:15,306 --> 00:45:19,257
The gentleman bumped into me
and made me drop my hat.
624
00:45:19,257 --> 00:45:24,938
You know, it occurred to me, that maybe
were separating for good.
625
00:45:25,857 --> 00:45:29,689
A very happy ending to this research,
if I may.
626
00:45:30,194 --> 00:45:31,605
It's possible.
627
00:45:32,988 --> 00:45:35,739
But he is wrong about separation.
628
00:45:36,366 --> 00:45:38,939
The person in question and me
we separated months ago.
629
00:45:38,939 --> 00:45:41,525
Seriously, sir? Well, that's a lot...
630
00:45:43,245 --> 00:45:44,989
Monkeys bite me.
631
00:45:47,124 --> 00:45:48,784
It was you.
632
00:45:50,585 --> 00:45:52,743
- This is terrible.
- At all.
633
00:45:52,743 --> 00:45:54,829
Seen from the outside, it actually looks quite cute.
634
00:45:54,829 --> 00:45:58,788
Yes. But I'm in the loop, sir.
I mean, he's my boy.
635
00:45:59,550 --> 00:46:01,424
You have great ideas about me.
636
00:46:01,424 --> 00:46:04,879
You know, the things they read, sir.
Nick Carter and those.
637
00:46:04,879 --> 00:46:06,595
Why does he have to know this?
638
00:46:06,595 --> 00:46:08,756
We have to be honest with children.
639
00:46:08,756 --> 00:46:11,600
Plus, he doesn't stop asking questions.
640
00:46:12,018 --> 00:46:14,722
Can't tell you
I managed to identify the man,
641
00:46:14,722 --> 00:46:17,681
That's it, and you weren't interested?
642
00:46:17,681 --> 00:46:21,935
Well, I'm sorry, I'm stealing your time
with my problems.
643
00:46:21,935 --> 00:46:25,441
It was a pleasure, sir. Parkis.
Try not to worry.
644
00:46:26,196 --> 00:46:31,355
- I see that your son must take after you.
- Well, it has its mother's brain.
645
00:46:31,355 --> 00:46:34,698
- Well, good night.
- Goodnight.
646
00:46:48,088 --> 00:46:50,210
I saw it from my window.
647
00:46:50,210 --> 00:46:53,048
In his thin raincoat tossed by the wind.
648
00:46:53,048 --> 00:46:56,298
And I felt a certain pity
of that shift worker.
649
00:46:56,298 --> 00:46:59,220
However, this little man had
a strange perception,
650
00:46:59,220 --> 00:47:01,711
for example,
thinking that we wanted to kiss.
651
00:47:01,711 --> 00:47:04,343
He sensed my hope,
my wish...
652
00:47:04,343 --> 00:47:07,350
and the memory of everything
what Sarah had meant to me.
653
00:47:07,350 --> 00:47:11,479
And with the speed of thoughts
unwanted, my mind came to,
654
00:47:11,479 --> 00:47:15,856
and I wished, like so many times,
never having met her.
655
00:47:15,856 --> 00:47:18,977
Never having been to Henry's house,
to get started.
656
00:47:18,977 --> 00:47:21,477
And Sarah would have been just a name.
657
00:47:45,631 --> 00:47:48,417
- Am I?
- This is Parkis, sir.
658
00:47:48,417 --> 00:47:52,126
I'm in a phone booth
It is in front of number 12 Cedar Road.
659
00:47:52,886 --> 00:47:56,089
May I suggest
come to me immediately?
660
00:47:56,089 --> 00:47:58,718
Because, within moments,
the person in question...
661
00:47:58,718 --> 00:48:01,215
A bell will ring at number 12.
662
00:48:02,019 --> 00:48:03,476
I have a taxi waiting.
663
00:48:03,476 --> 00:48:06,846
We can stay inside
so as not to be seen.
664
00:48:11,401 --> 00:48:14,769
See, the house is divided
in four apartments.
665
00:48:14,769 --> 00:48:18,810
But so far, we have not been able to ascertain
which bell she rings.
666
00:48:18,810 --> 00:48:21,147
But today we will find out.
667
00:48:23,785 --> 00:48:27,153
I added a little flour
on each bell.
668
00:48:27,153 --> 00:48:31,954
When the person in question enters,
we will see which bell was rung.
669
00:48:31,954 --> 00:48:34,413
And we will know
who is the other person in question.
670
00:48:34,413 --> 00:48:36,873
- In short, the man.
- Bright.
671
00:48:36,873 --> 00:48:39,915
Thanks. But there is something
even better, sir.
672
00:48:39,915 --> 00:48:41,914
- Better?
- Yes sir.
673
00:48:41,914 --> 00:48:45,625
Me and my boy made it
make friends with the maid.
674
00:48:45,625 --> 00:48:48,043
- With whom?
- The maid, sir.
675
00:48:48,429 --> 00:48:50,551
A very important person in these cases.
676
00:48:50,551 --> 00:48:54,636
And she told us many things
about the habits of the person in question.
677
00:48:54,636 --> 00:48:57,844
It's not always easy.
678
00:48:57,844 --> 00:49:02,644
Some maids are very reserved,
But, well, I have a way with them.
679
00:49:02,644 --> 00:49:05,138
- I'm sure so.
- Thank you, sir.
680
00:49:05,138 --> 00:49:08,353
Well, as a result
of this friendly contact,
681
00:49:08,353 --> 00:49:12,737
I was able to inspect the content
from the wastepaper basket of the person in question.
682
00:49:12,737 --> 00:49:17,816
And I put together something that I consider
a very interesting test.
683
00:49:17,816 --> 00:49:21,574
A letter, sir,
written by the person in question.
684
00:49:24,289 --> 00:49:26,779
You must not be understanding correctly, sir.
685
00:49:26,779 --> 00:49:28,250
A letter of this nature
686
00:49:28,250 --> 00:49:31,003
It is something that is not easily found.
687
00:49:31,003 --> 00:49:33,624
I consider it a very special discovery.
688
00:49:40,343 --> 00:49:42,880
Don't burn it!
In view of possible lawsuits,
689
00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:47,299
All documentary evidence must
be preserved and observations noted.
690
00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:51,434
Sorry, sir.
691
00:49:56,647 --> 00:49:59,398
I know I have to face
my old devotions,
692
00:49:59,398 --> 00:50:04,559
all my old fears and promises
and see them in their true perspective.
693
00:50:04,559 --> 00:50:08,436
For I know that the only thing that matters
We should be together,
694
00:50:08,436 --> 00:50:10,239
now and forever.
695
00:50:10,867 --> 00:50:13,439
Here she is, very punctual.
696
00:50:26,253 --> 00:50:29,289
I have to wait a moment.
697
00:50:32,050 --> 00:50:33,922
- I should be able to go now.
- I go.
698
00:50:33,922 --> 00:50:36,167
- But, sir...
- Wait here.
699
00:51:06,618 --> 00:51:08,242
- What is it, sir?
- Smythe.
700
00:51:08,242 --> 00:51:09,655
I thought it was Thompson.
701
00:51:09,655 --> 00:51:12,413
- Are you going to surprise them, sir?
- No.
702
00:51:12,413 --> 00:51:15,497
- Would you prefer me to come?
- No.
703
00:51:26,215 --> 00:51:28,338
Is Mr Miles here, please?
704
00:51:30,427 --> 00:51:33,000
Am I, Henry? It's Bendrix.
705
00:51:34,013 --> 00:51:39,137
Can we meet this afternoon?
I think you will find it very important.
706
00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:45,268
We can meet at my club.
Great. So, at 17:00. Goodbye.
707
00:51:46,856 --> 00:51:49,643
- Hello, Bendrix.
- Henry, how are you?
708
00:51:49,643 --> 00:51:53,861
- I ordered him a sherry. Sit down.
- It's very kind. Thanks.
709
00:51:53,861 --> 00:51:56,566
- How is Sarah?
- You are very well.
710
00:51:56,566 --> 00:51:59,572
- And you, Henry? Are you still worried?
- Worried?
711
00:51:59,572 --> 00:52:02,575
- I was worried. That's what he told me.
- He was?
712
00:52:03,494 --> 00:52:08,155
- Did you consult that detective?
- I was hoping you'd forgotten about that.
713
00:52:08,155 --> 00:52:11,781
I wasn't well. I was overloaded
work at the time.
714
00:52:13,210 --> 00:52:14,584
Health.
715
00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:22,292
- It's a good sherry.
- Remember I offered to contact you?
716
00:52:22,292 --> 00:52:24,790
We were both a little exhausted.
717
00:52:25,219 --> 00:52:28,006
I've never been here before
at his club, Bendrix.
718
00:52:28,006 --> 00:52:30,668
I went to see him a few days later.
719
00:52:31,140 --> 00:52:34,175
Bendrix didn't have that right.
720
00:52:34,175 --> 00:52:38,845
But you trusted me, Henry.
And he was right in his suspicions.
721
00:52:38,845 --> 00:52:41,226
This is indescribable, Bendrix.
722
00:52:41,226 --> 00:52:44,350
- Slandering the wife to her husband's face.
- I know, it can't be done.
723
00:52:44,350 --> 00:52:48,604
We shouldn't talk about our wife.
But you do it. He spoke to me.
724
00:52:49,821 --> 00:52:52,275
I think you should read this report.
725
00:52:52,275 --> 00:52:56,658
If it's not true, I should leave Sarah
clarify the situation if she can.
726
00:52:57,660 --> 00:53:00,530
You owe it to her if you believe in her.
727
00:53:25,515 --> 00:53:27,803
- The facts are there.
- I don't believe they are.
728
00:53:27,803 --> 00:53:30,180
Not for a second.
And now, if you'll excuse me.
729
00:53:30,180 --> 00:53:33,055
One moment, Henry.
730
00:53:33,055 --> 00:53:35,054
Is that Sarah's handwriting?
731
00:53:40,276 --> 00:53:44,853
"For the first time in my life,
I don't feel insecure or fear the future.
732
00:53:45,781 --> 00:53:49,230
"For I know that the only thing that matters
It's just that we should be together,
733
00:53:49,230 --> 00:53:51,115
"now and forever."
734
00:53:55,621 --> 00:53:58,158
Now let me pass, please?
735
00:54:26,978 --> 00:54:29,599
This time I was spot on, sir.
736
00:54:29,599 --> 00:54:32,974
It was risky, but I thought
with so many people coming and going,
737
00:54:32,974 --> 00:54:35,355
you could always say
who was looking for the bathroom.
738
00:54:35,355 --> 00:54:37,150
I had to be quick,
739
00:54:37,150 --> 00:54:39,904
because if the person in question
saw this in my hand,
740
00:54:39,904 --> 00:54:41,896
everything was ruined.
741
00:54:41,896 --> 00:54:44,397
- I don't understand.
- Through the maid,
742
00:54:44,397 --> 00:54:49,567
I heard that Mr. And Mrs. Miles
They were going to have a cocktail party this afternoon.
743
00:54:49,567 --> 00:54:52,366
And I infiltrated the party.
744
00:54:53,749 --> 00:54:55,242
Listen, boy, if you're going to bother me,
745
00:54:55,242 --> 00:54:57,159
you go to the street and wait there for me.
746
00:54:57,159 --> 00:54:59,707
- But, dad, I...
- Do what I tell you.
747
00:55:01,463 --> 00:55:04,499
We had ice cream on the way home,
are you ok?
748
00:55:07,134 --> 00:55:09,885
I'm sorry I had to speak harshly
with him, sir.
749
00:55:09,885 --> 00:55:13,918
But I don't like it being around
when I reveal an achievement.
750
00:55:13,918 --> 00:55:17,216
And if that is not a feat,
My name is not Albert Parkis.
751
00:55:17,216 --> 00:55:20,012
- What's there?
- You'll see, sir.
752
00:55:20,012 --> 00:55:22,427
It would be easier
If you had a knife.
753
00:55:22,427 --> 00:55:23,801
Of course.
754
00:55:24,898 --> 00:55:27,470
If you allow me, it's in moments like this...
755
00:55:27,470 --> 00:55:30,686
what a man feels
that your work is worth it.
756
00:55:30,686 --> 00:55:32,354
Thanks.
757
00:55:37,698 --> 00:55:40,154
- What is that? The account book?
- Even better.
758
00:55:40,154 --> 00:55:43,575
Much better.
The person in question writes an agenda.
759
00:55:45,247 --> 00:55:47,369
- You mean a diary?
- In a way.
760
00:55:47,369 --> 00:55:49,781
And it goes back to some time ago.
761
00:55:53,002 --> 00:55:55,327
- Did you read this?
- No, sir.
762
00:55:55,327 --> 00:55:58,456
It's not my job
stick your nose into private matters.
763
00:55:58,456 --> 00:56:01,383
But I certified your nature
based on a single record.
764
00:56:01,383 --> 00:56:06,008
I must say that she is not
properly cautious.
765
00:56:07,888 --> 00:56:10,426
I'm glad to have that. Very satisfied.
766
00:56:10,426 --> 00:56:12,057
Well, thank you, sir.
767
00:56:12,057 --> 00:56:16,637
It wasn't very difficult. There were a lot of people there.
768
00:56:16,637 --> 00:56:20,263
And Mrs. Miles thought I was
a friend of Mr. Miles from the ministry,
769
00:56:20,263 --> 00:56:23,475
and Mr. Miles thought
that I was a friend of hers.
770
00:56:24,568 --> 00:56:28,896
I told one or two funny jokes,
that I reserve for these social occasions.
771
00:56:28,896 --> 00:56:32,272
In fact, modesty aside,
I think it contributes...
772
00:56:32,272 --> 00:56:36,659
greatly to the enormous success
of the party.
773
00:56:37,995 --> 00:56:39,702
- But...
- But what?
774
00:56:40,330 --> 00:56:42,951
I don't know if this is relevant, but...
775
00:56:42,951 --> 00:56:45,613
I didn't like the look
of the person in question.
776
00:56:45,613 --> 00:56:46,989
I really didn't like it at all.
777
00:56:46,989 --> 00:56:50,169
- Like this?
- He had a bad cough, sir.
778
00:56:50,169 --> 00:56:53,338
And her face, well,
she was very pale and haggard.
779
00:56:53,338 --> 00:56:56,127
I thought she shouldn't have gotten out of bed.
780
00:56:56,127 --> 00:56:59,917
I understand. Well,
I think we can do the math.
781
00:56:59,917 --> 00:57:03,462
- Do I pay you or Mr. Savage?
- To Mr. Savage.
782
00:57:03,462 --> 00:57:05,465
But if you are satisfied,
783
00:57:05,465 --> 00:57:08,511
I would appreciate it if you wrote
to the office.
784
00:57:08,511 --> 00:57:10,475
- That helps a lot.
- I will write.
785
00:57:10,475 --> 00:57:12,185
Thank you, sir.
786
00:57:12,185 --> 00:57:15,307
And thank you, sir,
for being so nice to Lance.
787
00:57:15,307 --> 00:57:17,521
- Lance?
- The boy, sir.
788
00:57:17,521 --> 00:57:19,933
Like Sir Lancelot of King Arthur's court.
789
00:57:19,933 --> 00:57:24,153
- He chose a strange character.
- Well, he was the one who found the Holy Grail.
790
00:57:24,153 --> 00:57:25,816
That was Galahad.
791
00:57:25,816 --> 00:57:28,657
Lancelot fell in love with someone else's wife.
792
00:57:28,657 --> 00:57:30,319
I didn't know that.
793
00:57:30,319 --> 00:57:32,568
You did a great job.
I will give good references.
794
00:57:32,568 --> 00:57:34,535
Thank you, sir.
795
00:57:34,535 --> 00:57:37,158
- Well, goodbye, sir.
- Goodbye.
796
00:57:50,634 --> 00:57:54,132
As I write this page it is already tomorrow.
797
00:57:54,132 --> 00:57:57,754
And I fear reaching the end of yesterday.
798
00:57:57,754 --> 00:58:02,140
As long as you keep writing
It's today and we're still together.
799
00:58:03,059 --> 00:58:05,515
I woke up this morning intoxicated with happiness,
800
00:58:05,515 --> 00:58:09,435
that spread like sunlight
for all hours of the day.
801
00:58:09,435 --> 00:58:13,472
I wasn't even impatient to go
with Maurice, because finally
802
00:58:13,472 --> 00:58:16,272
let's have some time together
no worries.
803
00:58:16,272 --> 00:58:21,272
While arranging the flowers, I spoke to Maurice
as if we didn't have better things to do.
804
00:58:21,272 --> 00:58:23,690
I didn't even kiss him when I arrived,
805
00:58:23,690 --> 00:58:26,570
because I found out from the lit cigarette
on the windowsill,
806
00:58:26,570 --> 00:58:31,037
that he had been waiting for me
and was just pretending to be busy.
807
00:58:31,498 --> 00:58:32,908
Dear Maurice.
808
00:58:32,908 --> 00:58:37,078
I love him so special,
when he thinks he's being smart.
809
00:58:37,078 --> 00:58:39,838
When the sirens started,
We don't pay attention.
810
00:58:39,838 --> 00:58:41,165
They were not important.
811
00:58:41,165 --> 00:58:44,588
We were used to bombs
and we are not afraid to die like this.
812
00:58:44,588 --> 00:58:48,754
But the attack continued incessantly
and we realized it wasn't normal.
813
00:58:48,754 --> 00:58:51,513
Maurice begged me to go home,
but I didn't go.
814
00:58:51,513 --> 00:58:55,380
So he said he was going to the basement
see if anyone was there.
815
00:58:55,380 --> 00:58:59,553
He feared for me and I feared for him.
816
00:58:59,553 --> 00:59:02,348
I knew something was going to happen.
817
01:00:57,025 --> 01:00:59,812
God, don't let him die.
818
01:01:02,154 --> 01:01:05,653
Never be happy again, with anyone.
819
01:01:07,992 --> 01:01:12,035
Someone else could have loved him
and made happier than I did.
820
01:01:12,035 --> 01:01:15,535
It only brought him disgrace and suspicion.
821
01:01:15,535 --> 01:01:17,579
Give him that possibility.
822
01:01:18,333 --> 01:01:23,208
I love him, I will do anything, but let him live.
823
01:01:23,795 --> 01:01:27,164
I will never argue with him again,
nor will I make him unhappy.
824
01:01:27,164 --> 01:01:29,926
I will be sweet, kind and good.
825
01:01:33,303 --> 01:01:34,881
I will be good.
826
01:01:36,347 --> 01:01:38,672
I will live as You want me to live.
827
01:01:38,672 --> 01:01:42,763
I will give up Maurice forever,
but let him live!
828
01:01:42,763 --> 01:01:44,844
Let him live!
829
01:01:46,813 --> 01:01:48,011
Sarah.
830
01:01:49,524 --> 01:01:50,768
Sarah.
831
01:01:55,611 --> 01:01:59,027
I imagined it all. It was pure hysteria.
832
01:01:59,657 --> 01:02:01,198
That's fear.
833
01:02:01,992 --> 01:02:04,908
He wasn't dead. It couldn't be.
834
01:02:04,908 --> 01:02:09,157
It was all nonsense, childish,
and tomorrow everything will seem absurd.
835
01:02:10,581 --> 01:02:13,285
I will tell you of my promise
and he will laugh at me,
836
01:02:13,285 --> 01:02:16,790
then I can laugh at myself
and forget it all.
837
01:02:16,790 --> 01:02:19,913
I will fall into your arms
and we will pick up where we left off...
838
01:02:19,913 --> 01:02:22,756
and everything will be as before.
839
01:02:24,341 --> 01:02:27,295
My God. He's trying to remember something...
840
01:02:28,053 --> 01:02:29,962
and I know what it is.
841
01:02:30,930 --> 01:02:34,429
You're trying to remember
of what it was like to be dead.
842
01:02:36,185 --> 01:02:42,186
My dear, I wish you were
in the safety of death, under that door.
843
01:02:42,186 --> 01:02:45,226
Now the agony of being without you begins.
844
01:03:37,106 --> 01:03:39,181
A man is not decent
appear before God,
845
01:03:39,181 --> 01:03:41,681
without even a prayer
to announce your arrival.
846
01:03:41,681 --> 01:03:43,353
We can pray now.
847
01:03:43,569 --> 01:03:46,523
There's little more we can do
for those inside.
848
01:03:47,989 --> 01:03:51,025
Lord, deliver us from sudden death.
849
01:04:17,554 --> 01:04:19,629
Do you want to talk to me?
850
01:04:21,347 --> 01:04:23,139
I'm not Catholic.
851
01:04:25,601 --> 01:04:28,720
- Did you lose anyone in the bombing?
- Yes.
852
01:04:29,938 --> 01:04:31,976
I lost someone.
853
01:04:32,773 --> 01:04:34,397
I gave up on him.
854
01:04:35,651 --> 01:04:38,354
It's what we all have to do at a given time,
855
01:04:39,820 --> 01:04:41,777
give up on those we love.
856
01:04:42,322 --> 01:04:44,279
But he didn't have to.
857
01:04:44,907 --> 01:04:48,571
I went down the stairs after him,
after the bomb drops.
858
01:04:51,788 --> 01:04:54,823
- I am really sorry.
- But he didn't die.
859
01:04:57,500 --> 01:05:01,034
I mean, I thought I died.
860
01:05:03,463 --> 01:05:07,626
I found it under a door,
a heavy door.
861
01:05:09,301 --> 01:05:11,174
Only his arm was visible.
862
01:05:12,762 --> 01:05:14,339
Your dead arm.
863
01:05:15,263 --> 01:05:17,055
I touched your hand.
864
01:05:18,015 --> 01:05:20,803
I could have sworn it was a dead hand.
865
01:05:22,352 --> 01:05:26,645
When two people loved each other,
Shouldn't that be recognized?
866
01:05:27,273 --> 01:05:29,100
Was it your husband?
867
01:05:32,110 --> 01:05:36,652
We had planned for the first time
spend these days together.
868
01:05:38,115 --> 01:05:40,272
But we never got around to it.
869
01:05:40,950 --> 01:05:42,657
Just a few hours.
870
01:05:44,828 --> 01:05:47,781
But I was more right than ever...
871
01:05:47,781 --> 01:05:51,405
that we could be happy forever.
872
01:05:53,168 --> 01:05:55,837
You know, I made him very unhappy.
873
01:05:56,086 --> 01:05:58,624
That's why I made that promise.
874
01:06:01,007 --> 01:06:04,007
It was... of course, it was all hysteria.
875
01:06:05,552 --> 01:06:09,929
People are always historic
at times like this, right?
876
01:06:09,929 --> 01:06:11,923
What did you promise?
877
01:06:12,808 --> 01:06:14,005
Well,
878
01:06:14,809 --> 01:06:17,726
I know it seems absurd now, but...
879
01:06:20,981 --> 01:06:23,767
I thought he was resurrected
for my prayers.
880
01:06:24,275 --> 01:06:27,228
- It's absurd, isn't it?
- No.
881
01:06:28,028 --> 01:06:32,523
But people don't resurrect.
When they're dead, they really are.
882
01:06:35,492 --> 01:06:37,234
Anyway, I...
883
01:06:37,910 --> 01:06:39,238
I prayed.
884
01:06:40,287 --> 01:06:43,287
I made that stupid promise and then he...
885
01:06:44,540 --> 01:06:46,616
He entered.
886
01:06:47,293 --> 01:06:49,331
So it was all a mistake.
887
01:06:52,963 --> 01:06:56,877
I'm sorry. You shouldn't waste your time
this way.
888
01:06:57,717 --> 01:07:02,212
He must have slept little.
He looks very tired.
889
01:07:03,346 --> 01:07:05,801
I know when I'm wasting time.
890
01:07:06,599 --> 01:07:10,263
You still haven't told me what you promised...
891
01:07:10,263 --> 01:07:11,762
or to whom?
892
01:07:15,438 --> 01:07:17,929
I promised that if...
893
01:07:21,485 --> 01:07:25,102
God would resurrect him,
894
01:07:26,322 --> 01:07:28,610
I mean, if I didn't let him die,
895
01:07:30,783 --> 01:07:33,155
I would never be with him again.
896
01:07:35,204 --> 01:07:39,153
I imagine it doesn't seem like it to you
a great sacrifice,
897
01:07:42,209 --> 01:07:45,209
but do it impulsively
a promise like that...
898
01:07:45,209 --> 01:07:47,619
and to a God generated by my fear...
899
01:07:47,619 --> 01:07:50,464
I don't think I have any problems.
900
01:07:50,924 --> 01:07:54,624
If you made a vow to someone
in those who do not believe,
901
01:07:54,624 --> 01:07:56,212
why keep it?
902
01:07:56,761 --> 01:07:58,884
Are you telling me to break it?
903
01:07:58,884 --> 01:08:03,467
God endowed us with free will,
to use it for Him or against Him.
904
01:08:04,351 --> 01:08:06,676
God, always God.
Don't the priests say anything else?
905
01:08:06,676 --> 01:08:08,678
There is nothing else.
906
01:08:11,565 --> 01:08:15,811
If there is a God, then He has put
that prayer in my head...
907
01:08:15,811 --> 01:08:17,810
and I hate Him for it.
908
01:08:36,876 --> 01:08:39,579
Of course, I caught the first train back.
909
01:08:39,579 --> 01:08:43,713
Well, the information in the field
were quite surprising.
910
01:08:44,090 --> 01:08:47,042
No, mine wasn't hit, fortunately.
911
01:08:47,968 --> 01:08:50,884
Yes, there is a lot of damage in the neighborhood.
912
01:08:51,554 --> 01:08:54,969
Actually, a friend of mine's house.
913
01:08:56,098 --> 01:08:58,304
Yes, we have to
any statement.
914
01:08:58,304 --> 01:09:02,519
Well, people already know they weren't
normal bombs due to their intensity.
915
01:09:02,519 --> 01:09:04,062
Yes, without a doubt.
916
01:09:04,897 --> 01:09:08,099
Well, I'll be back, as soon as I see my wife.
917
01:09:08,099 --> 01:09:11,357
I will do so. Thanks. Goodbye.
918
01:09:13,904 --> 01:09:15,481
Sarah, darling!
919
01:09:16,281 --> 01:09:18,107
Sarah, you were on the street.
920
01:09:18,107 --> 01:09:20,274
I spent hours in circles.
921
01:09:20,274 --> 01:09:24,660
- Honey, you know this isn't safe.
- I wanted to see what happened.
922
01:09:24,660 --> 01:09:26,737
Did you pass by Bendrix's house?
923
01:09:26,737 --> 01:09:29,036
I looked, but they took him to the hospital.
924
01:09:29,036 --> 01:09:30,950
- Hospital?
- He wasn't hurt.
925
01:09:30,950 --> 01:09:33,710
It was a post-traumatic shock,
as they call it.
926
01:09:35,212 --> 01:09:37,963
Sarah, darling. You look very haggard.
927
01:09:37,963 --> 01:09:40,668
Are you sure you're okay?
928
01:09:41,258 --> 01:09:44,093
- Your tea, sir.
- Bring another cup, please.
929
01:09:44,093 --> 01:09:45,719
Yes sir.
930
01:09:48,555 --> 01:09:51,342
I came to the city, little did I know.
931
01:09:51,342 --> 01:09:55,725
Fortunately, it was before dawn,
so you were at home.
932
01:09:55,725 --> 01:09:57,602
I tried to call, but I couldn't get through.
933
01:09:57,602 --> 01:10:00,260
There were many priority calls.
934
01:10:00,648 --> 01:10:03,220
Here you go, baby. Drink this.
935
01:10:07,111 --> 01:10:11,487
What happened to your hands?
They are all scratched and dirty.
936
01:10:11,990 --> 01:10:16,366
- I tried to help someone.
- I'm afraid there is little that can be done.
937
01:10:18,078 --> 01:10:20,236
- Your cup, sir.
- Thanks.
938
01:10:20,997 --> 01:10:23,665
It is the suddenness of these things.
939
01:10:24,958 --> 01:10:27,875
"Lord, deliver us from sudden death."
940
01:10:29,712 --> 01:10:31,869
Yes, we all pray for that.
941
01:10:33,590 --> 01:10:35,380
Do you pray, Henry?
942
01:10:37,551 --> 01:10:40,219
- We are all taught to do it.
- But do you pray?
943
01:10:42,054 --> 01:10:44,129
At church, when I go there.
944
01:10:45,098 --> 01:10:48,015
Don't you think it's all superstition?
945
01:10:48,015 --> 01:10:50,093
The church, the prayers, the promises to God...
946
01:10:50,093 --> 01:10:53,055
- and all that?
- Honestly, Sarah.
947
01:10:55,147 --> 01:10:57,519
What do you believe, Henry?
948
01:10:58,233 --> 01:11:00,806
In all these years married
I never really knew.
949
01:11:00,806 --> 01:11:02,894
I never even asked.
950
01:11:04,405 --> 01:11:07,654
Do you believe there is a Hell and a Heaven?
951
01:11:08,491 --> 01:11:11,776
And an immortal soul and a God
what rewards, punishes...
952
01:11:11,776 --> 01:11:13,742
and who answers prayers?
953
01:11:14,121 --> 01:11:17,820
Well, it's not something to discuss
while we drink tea.
954
01:11:18,332 --> 01:11:20,158
Well, why not?
955
01:11:20,158 --> 01:11:23,618
If there is a God, He made us as we are,
956
01:11:23,618 --> 01:11:26,628
eating, drinking and sleeping.
957
01:11:27,964 --> 01:11:30,917
And not just sitting
at church on Sundays.
958
01:11:30,917 --> 01:11:34,543
What is your religion, Henry?
What do you believe?
959
01:11:36,847 --> 01:11:40,510
In fact, it's quite simple.
A person does their best.
960
01:11:48,188 --> 01:11:51,023
Sarah, what's wrong?
961
01:11:52,692 --> 01:11:55,857
Sarah, honey, that was too much for you.
962
01:11:55,857 --> 01:11:58,269
You go to the field with me. It's useless to deny it,
963
01:11:58,269 --> 01:12:00,651
because I've already decided. Let's see.
964
01:12:00,651 --> 01:12:03,525
If you pack your bags now,
We still caught the next train.
965
01:12:03,525 --> 01:12:06,819
I will be away at many meetings,
but it is a quiet area.
966
01:12:06,819 --> 01:12:08,618
And you can rest.
967
01:12:13,750 --> 01:12:17,082
I tell you, it's all an illusion, a trick!
968
01:12:17,711 --> 01:12:22,004
They think a merciful God
or Almighty,
969
01:12:22,840 --> 01:12:26,670
would you allow these massacres?
These mutilations?
970
01:12:27,760 --> 01:12:30,594
If man was made in the image of God,
971
01:12:31,471 --> 01:12:34,674
Was it so it could be bombed?
972
01:12:35,599 --> 01:12:38,848
People yearn
for a message of hope.
973
01:12:38,848 --> 01:12:44,059
What hope would there be
If everyone in the world knew...
974
01:12:44,440 --> 01:12:47,559
that there was nothing left
beyond what we have here?
975
01:12:48,109 --> 01:12:52,105
No future rewards,
compensations, punishments.
976
01:12:53,071 --> 01:12:56,605
So we would start to make this world
in a true paradise!
977
01:13:00,409 --> 01:13:01,524
I give private advice
978
01:13:01,524 --> 01:13:04,821
- Did you hear me talk about the park?
- Yes.
979
01:13:06,372 --> 01:13:11,448
There I have to expose things in a way
Simple, get people to think for them.
980
01:13:12,002 --> 01:13:14,327
Have you started to think for yourself?
981
01:13:14,327 --> 01:13:16,128
I think so.
982
01:13:17,631 --> 01:13:20,916
- Don't you belong to any church?
- No.
983
01:13:20,916 --> 01:13:23,879
- Don't you have any religious beliefs?
- No.
984
01:13:24,761 --> 01:13:29,137
So I don't understand why you feel
in the obligation to fulfill that promise.
985
01:13:30,682 --> 01:13:34,051
Well, it was more than a promise.
986
01:13:35,145 --> 01:13:37,220
It was a kind of prayer.
987
01:13:37,522 --> 01:13:39,514
- And was it answered?
- Yes.
988
01:13:39,514 --> 01:13:40,886
By whom?
989
01:13:42,275 --> 01:13:43,852
By God, I think.
990
01:13:44,318 --> 01:13:46,773
Above the bombings
and the prayers of the soldiers,
991
01:13:46,773 --> 01:13:50,277
Did a supreme being hear your little prayer?
992
01:13:51,699 --> 01:13:53,856
It makes it seem very foolish.
993
01:13:53,856 --> 01:13:57,900
A being who said:
"She asked so nicely,
994
01:13:57,900 --> 01:14:02,455
"it's better to make time
to do what she wants."
995
01:14:03,958 --> 01:14:07,409
My dear Mrs. Miles,
You don't believe that, do you?
996
01:14:07,409 --> 01:14:10,787
I don't want to believe it.
That's why I'm here.
997
01:14:12,465 --> 01:14:16,212
From what you tell me, it passed
for a very traumatic experience.
998
01:14:16,212 --> 01:14:18,874
And it's natural that you're confused.
999
01:14:18,874 --> 01:14:22,551
Especially, after having imagined
that his prayer had been answered.
1000
01:14:22,551 --> 01:14:27,347
It's like a child who is afraid
out of the dark and shouts, "Mom."
1001
01:14:28,185 --> 01:14:29,643
And when mom turns on the light,
1002
01:14:29,643 --> 01:14:32,396
the child thinks he is all-powerful.
1003
01:14:33,230 --> 01:14:36,101
But can we be children all our lives?
1004
01:14:37,568 --> 01:14:39,855
Sometimes a person would like to be.
1005
01:14:40,861 --> 01:14:43,103
But keep going. Convince me.
1006
01:14:43,989 --> 01:14:46,658
Never had anyone
with more desire to convert.
1007
01:14:47,616 --> 01:14:50,617
And then it was over, the war was over.
1008
01:14:50,617 --> 01:14:52,908
And I went with Henry to St James Park...
1009
01:14:52,908 --> 01:14:56,079
attend the Victory Day celebrations.
1010
01:14:56,079 --> 01:14:58,834
The crowd in the palace
it was quite silent.
1011
01:14:58,834 --> 01:15:02,664
No one shouted,
sang or drank too much.
1012
01:15:02,664 --> 01:15:05,160
They were simply happy
because there was peace...
1013
01:15:05,160 --> 01:15:07,082
and there were no more attacks.
1014
01:15:07,082 --> 01:15:11,040
People were hugged
or holding hands,
1015
01:15:11,040 --> 01:15:13,506
without worrying about whether they were seen or not.
1016
01:15:13,506 --> 01:15:16,548
And then the royal family appeared on the balcony.
1017
01:15:16,548 --> 01:15:20,801
They were not leaders like Hitler,
Stalin, Churchill or Roosevelt.
1018
01:15:20,801 --> 01:15:24,474
They were just a family
who hadn't hurt anyone.
1019
01:15:24,474 --> 01:15:28,854
And there was a huge tender whisper
by the crowd, as if saying:
1020
01:15:28,854 --> 01:15:32,308
"We did it. We survived.
We stayed together. "
1021
01:15:33,860 --> 01:15:36,777
And suddenly,
I wanted to have Maurice by my side.
1022
01:15:37,863 --> 01:15:40,436
I wanted to be part of the family.
1023
01:15:43,450 --> 01:15:45,822
It was very moving, wasn't it?
1024
01:15:46,578 --> 01:15:49,069
Well, now we can sleep.
1025
01:15:49,069 --> 01:15:50,443
Can we?
1026
01:15:53,166 --> 01:15:56,332
Sarah dear, something happened to me
quite pleasant.
1027
01:15:56,332 --> 01:15:58,743
La tell you, but with all this,
1028
01:15:58,743 --> 01:16:01,162
It seemed quite insignificant to me.
1029
01:16:03,090 --> 01:16:08,760
- Don't you want to know what happened?
- Yes of course. Sorry, Henry.
1030
01:16:10,054 --> 01:16:13,553
They just told me I was recommended
for Officer of the British Empire.
1031
01:16:13,553 --> 01:16:16,213
- Great.
- It's just the first step.
1032
01:16:16,213 --> 01:16:18,799
In a year or two, I will be Commander,
and if it works,
1033
01:16:18,799 --> 01:16:21,645
when I retire,
Maybe they'll make me a Knight.
1034
01:16:21,645 --> 01:16:24,137
It seems to be very important,
but very confusing.
1035
01:16:24,137 --> 01:16:27,980
- Couldn't they keep the same name?
- Honestly, Sarah.
1036
01:16:29,945 --> 01:16:34,486
Wouldn't you like to be called Lady Miles?
It's all I want.
1037
01:16:34,486 --> 01:16:35,770
What little I achieved,
1038
01:16:35,770 --> 01:16:37,823
I wouldn't have achieved it alone, you know.
1039
01:16:37,823 --> 01:16:39,901
You're too modest, Henry.
1040
01:16:39,901 --> 01:16:42,994
You could have done so much more without me.
1041
01:16:45,039 --> 01:16:48,075
I feel like I'm without you, Sarah.
1042
01:16:48,075 --> 01:16:49,957
Like this?
1043
01:16:50,877 --> 01:16:54,209
You're always outside. You'll be back late.
1044
01:16:54,209 --> 01:16:56,502
Always taking long walks.
1045
01:16:56,502 --> 01:17:01,381
- A person goes through agitated phases.
- No, I'm afraid it's more than that.
1046
01:17:03,261 --> 01:17:05,088
Do you owe the bank money or something?
1047
01:17:05,088 --> 01:17:07,930
No. I hardly spend anything.
1048
01:17:07,930 --> 01:17:11,763
- Is your mother fatally ill?
- No. Of course not.
1049
01:17:12,643 --> 01:17:16,972
- Sarah dear, if I can help you.
- Yes, thank you, Henry.
1050
01:17:40,873 --> 01:17:42,995
Then he came back.
1051
01:17:42,995 --> 01:17:46,167
- You remember me.
- Certainly.
1052
01:17:49,714 --> 01:17:54,339
If you're going to ask me if I kept
My promise, the answer is yes.
1053
01:17:55,718 --> 01:17:58,007
But without any virtue.
1054
01:17:59,304 --> 01:18:02,506
I would do much better if I were again
a joyful sinner,
1055
01:18:02,506 --> 01:18:05,219
than to continue in this sadness.
1056
01:18:05,219 --> 01:18:08,973
Now that I'm what they call good,
I'm not good for anyone.
1057
01:18:09,729 --> 01:18:14,306
Had a great experience
and is trying to reject it.
1058
01:18:14,815 --> 01:18:16,226
You can't.
1059
01:18:16,943 --> 01:18:20,062
In that moment of God consciousness,
1060
01:18:20,062 --> 01:18:23,154
took the first step on a long journey.
1061
01:18:23,154 --> 01:18:25,231
You can go back,
1062
01:18:25,231 --> 01:18:29,617
but nothing will change the fact
that he took that step.
1063
01:18:29,911 --> 01:18:34,122
You may find it more painful
going back than moving forward.
1064
01:18:34,122 --> 01:18:36,910
No. The time in front of me is endless.
1065
01:18:37,458 --> 01:18:40,209
Praying could help make it shorter.
1066
01:18:40,794 --> 01:18:42,833
I've already prayed one more time.
1067
01:18:47,716 --> 01:18:51,131
When we seek God,
It means we have already found Him.
1068
01:18:51,677 --> 01:18:54,927
But I don't want it. And what does He want from me?
1069
01:18:54,927 --> 01:18:58,381
What can I give Him
other than a measly second place?
1070
01:18:58,381 --> 01:19:00,846
I'm afraid He's used to it.
1071
01:19:04,437 --> 01:19:06,097
How sad for Him.
1072
01:20:07,526 --> 01:20:11,689
As I left, I couldn't understand
Why did he light the candle.
1073
01:20:11,689 --> 01:20:13,571
For ostentation, I suppose.
1074
01:20:14,657 --> 01:20:16,898
But you should know by now.
1075
01:20:16,898 --> 01:20:20,361
Whenever I have a good impulse,
I am punished.
1076
01:20:20,361 --> 01:20:24,746
I prayed and promised once,
and look what happened to me.
1077
01:20:25,457 --> 01:20:29,536
And then... What was the harm?
of a sixpenny candle?
1078
01:20:30,920 --> 01:20:34,122
And the idea was beautiful.
1079
01:20:34,122 --> 01:20:37,297
A thin flame that rises
in the dark.
1080
01:20:38,133 --> 01:20:42,426
"Sarah, Sarah, clear fire,
In the burning jungles of the night"
1081
01:20:44,137 --> 01:20:47,969
Then I began to wonder if there was
some truth in what the priest had said.
1082
01:20:47,969 --> 01:20:52,220
Maybe you should take a step.
Give God a chance.
1083
01:20:52,936 --> 01:20:55,473
After all, if everything were unfounded,
What harm could it do?
1084
01:20:55,473 --> 01:20:58,054
And if there were any grounds...
1085
01:20:59,399 --> 01:21:03,231
For the first time in months,
I felt a slight tremor of happiness.
1086
01:21:03,231 --> 01:21:07,612
I was almost afraid to say
for fear it would disappear.
1087
01:21:13,994 --> 01:21:17,244
When I returned home,
I remember saying:
1088
01:21:17,244 --> 01:21:20,449
"� just a little spark,
the size of a candle flame,
1089
01:21:20,449 --> 01:21:23,209
"but it gives light and heat.
1090
01:21:23,209 --> 01:21:27,372
"I wish I could keep it burning
just for a little bit. "
1091
01:21:32,509 --> 01:21:35,543
All those months of loss and longing...
1092
01:21:35,543 --> 01:21:38,422
and I could only say: "You."
1093
01:21:45,185 --> 01:21:46,594
Good night.
1094
01:21:48,562 --> 01:21:53,637
I used all my strength to achieve
go up the stairs and get away from him.
1095
01:22:11,996 --> 01:22:14,618
It's not fair!
1096
01:22:15,416 --> 01:22:17,573
Don't you want my faith?
1097
01:22:20,628 --> 01:22:22,667
Maurice, darling.
1098
01:22:28,384 --> 01:22:32,926
The mere act of writing these words
brings you back close to me.
1099
01:22:33,679 --> 01:22:36,680
And though it's hard for me to forget
the sadness on your face,
1100
01:22:36,680 --> 01:22:40,549
when we met in the square,
I know you still love me.
1101
01:22:40,549 --> 01:22:42,968
For your desire to hurt me.
1102
01:22:44,188 --> 01:22:45,812
And now, my dear,
1103
01:22:46,314 --> 01:22:50,774
for the first time in my life,
I don't feel insecure or fear the future.
1104
01:22:50,774 --> 01:22:54,691
I know I have to face
my old devotions,
1105
01:22:54,691 --> 01:22:59,322
all my old fears and promises
and see them in their true perspective.
1106
01:22:59,322 --> 01:23:03,985
For I know that the only thing that matters
We should be together,
1107
01:23:03,985 --> 01:23:05,869
now and forever.
1108
01:23:06,830 --> 01:23:08,372
You were right.
1109
01:23:08,372 --> 01:23:12,288
We can find tranquility,
stability and eternal love.
1110
01:23:13,335 --> 01:23:17,663
Maurice dear, this is the first letter
of love that I write in my life...
1111
01:23:17,663 --> 01:23:19,913
and it's hard for me.
1112
01:23:21,383 --> 01:23:25,166
Too difficult.
I couldn't put those things on paper.
1113
01:23:26,011 --> 01:23:29,711
I wanted to say them all,
make him hear those words...
1114
01:23:29,711 --> 01:23:32,557
to see the desolation
leaving his face.
1115
01:23:53,865 --> 01:23:56,901
- I waited for you all week.
- Yes I know.
1116
01:23:56,901 --> 01:23:59,484
I've been busy making plans.
1117
01:24:01,080 --> 01:24:04,033
What is it, Sarah? What happened to him?
1118
01:24:04,915 --> 01:24:08,534
- I came to say goodbye to you.
- Goodbye?
1119
01:24:09,753 --> 01:24:13,417
- He seems very happy about it.
- Yes. Suddenly, I was.
1120
01:24:13,417 --> 01:24:17,585
Quite happy.
You know, I'm going back to Maurice.
1121
01:24:21,929 --> 01:24:25,628
- Did I end up convincing her?
- It helped.
1122
01:24:26,141 --> 01:24:29,555
I helped her find a way out
from this swamp of fear and superstition?
1123
01:24:29,555 --> 01:24:31,054
No, Richard.
1124
01:24:31,054 --> 01:24:35,307
It helped me find God.
He taught me to believe in Him.
1125
01:24:35,307 --> 01:24:38,267
- Did I teach her?
- With your hate.
1126
01:24:39,275 --> 01:24:41,730
Richard, you can't hate something
that doesn't exist.
1127
01:24:41,730 --> 01:24:45,816
Don't be angry with me. I tried.
I was here and I listened.
1128
01:24:45,816 --> 01:24:48,313
I know the whole conversation
and I don't believe a word of it.
1129
01:24:48,313 --> 01:24:50,862
Then the lot of tricks
ended up winning.
1130
01:24:50,862 --> 01:24:55,363
But he made a vow and now
intends to deliberately break it.
1131
01:24:55,871 --> 01:24:59,120
Well, that's what's been tempting me
convince you to do it, right?
1132
01:24:59,120 --> 01:25:01,448
- That's why I came to you.
- Yes.
1133
01:25:01,448 --> 01:25:03,998
But to break it
with rational foundations.
1134
01:25:03,998 --> 01:25:08,165
This is believing in God and challenging Him.
1135
01:25:08,165 --> 01:25:12,086
That scares you, doesn't it?
But it doesn't scare me.
1136
01:25:12,842 --> 01:25:15,049
It all seems very simple to me.
1137
01:25:15,049 --> 01:25:18,718
If I can love God
after everything you made me suffer,
1138
01:25:18,718 --> 01:25:23,182
because he cannot love me,
even if it disappoints you a little?
1139
01:25:23,182 --> 01:25:27,596
It is easy for you to accept the idea of God.
There is no reason to complain.
1140
01:25:27,596 --> 01:25:31,435
But why should I love a God
Who let me be born with this?
1141
01:25:36,736 --> 01:25:42,026
My dear Richard, your belief
It's much deeper than mine.
1142
01:25:45,409 --> 01:25:47,448
I can't stand your pity.
1143
01:25:49,245 --> 01:25:50,953
Goodbye, Richard.
1144
01:26:24,564 --> 01:26:25,762
Sarah?
1145
01:26:27,858 --> 01:26:29,102
Sarah?
1146
01:26:30,444 --> 01:26:33,479
Where are you, Sarah?
1147
01:26:34,405 --> 01:26:36,562
- Sarah?
- What is it, Henry?
1148
01:26:36,562 --> 01:26:40,439
- You're here.
- Yes, I'm here.
1149
01:26:45,913 --> 01:26:47,657
You arrived early.
1150
01:26:49,291 --> 01:26:52,410
Yes. I went for a drink with Bendrix
to his club.
1151
01:26:52,410 --> 01:26:56,961
And when we're done,
It was no longer worth going back to the office.
1152
01:26:58,089 --> 01:27:00,128
Give your head.
1153
01:27:02,843 --> 01:27:05,962
It's because you don't have your glasses on.
1154
01:27:06,513 --> 01:27:08,055
Break them.
1155
01:27:12,059 --> 01:27:15,225
I love you, Sarah. Do you know that?
1156
01:27:18,397 --> 01:27:19,594
Yes.
1157
01:27:19,594 --> 01:27:22,855
I know I'm boring.
My friends are boring.
1158
01:27:24,693 --> 01:27:29,236
We don't do anything together anymore.
1159
01:27:31,031 --> 01:27:34,150
At every wedding
this ends up happening.
1160
01:27:35,660 --> 01:27:38,232
- We are good friends.
- No.
1161
01:27:38,232 --> 01:27:40,654
No, I could never think of you
like a friend.
1162
01:27:40,654 --> 01:27:44,874
Can you live without a friend
and I can't live without you.
1163
01:27:49,462 --> 01:27:52,166
- Henry, what happened?
- Nothing.
1164
01:27:54,008 --> 01:27:58,752
- Did Maurice say something that upset you?
- Of course not. How could I do it?
1165
01:28:04,015 --> 01:28:06,931
It's just that I can't live without you.
1166
01:28:07,351 --> 01:28:10,885
Because, you know, Sarah,
It's too late to start over again.
1167
01:28:11,688 --> 01:28:14,095
And I don't want anyone else.
1168
01:28:14,095 --> 01:28:16,561
I don't mind not having a family,
a son,
1169
01:28:16,561 --> 01:28:18,724
because I know you can't have it.
1170
01:28:19,152 --> 01:28:21,938
- Who told you?
- It doesn't matter.
1171
01:28:21,938 --> 01:28:24,353
- My mother?
- It doesn't matter.
1172
01:28:24,864 --> 01:28:27,615
And did you know, did you always know?
1173
01:28:28,158 --> 01:28:30,731
It didn't make any difference. There was you.
1174
01:28:33,704 --> 01:28:37,618
Dear Sarah,
I haven't been a great husband,
1175
01:28:38,792 --> 01:28:42,835
but it will last you a few more years.
I am going to try.
1176
01:28:48,173 --> 01:28:50,296
I won't abandon you, Henry.
1177
01:28:53,177 --> 01:28:54,588
I promise.
1178
01:28:54,970 --> 01:28:57,046
Another promise to keep.
1179
01:28:57,889 --> 01:29:01,304
And once again, he closed the door on Maurice.
1180
01:29:01,304 --> 01:29:06,266
Only this time I couldn't blame God.
I was the one who closed the door.
1181
01:29:06,937 --> 01:29:11,764
I can't keep writing in this book.
It became just a record of pain.
1182
01:29:12,442 --> 01:29:15,525
I want to be with Maurice,
like it was in the old days.
1183
01:29:15,525 --> 01:29:17,520
I want to eat sandwiches with him.
1184
01:29:17,520 --> 01:29:21,823
I want to be with him drinking in a bar.
I'm tired and I don't want to suffer anymore.
1185
01:29:21,823 --> 01:29:26,118
I want Maurice.
I want normal human love.
1186
01:29:48,636 --> 01:29:50,675
Good night. This is Mrs. Miles.
1187
01:29:52,222 --> 01:29:55,009
I know. I recognize your voice, Sarah.
1188
01:29:57,143 --> 01:29:58,305
You!
1189
01:30:01,229 --> 01:30:04,894
No. Please no. I can't see you.
I am in bed.
1190
01:30:04,894 --> 01:30:08,729
I'm talking about there. That is, I'm sick.
1191
01:30:10,069 --> 01:30:13,437
Well, no, it's nothing.
It's just a big flu.
1192
01:30:15,615 --> 01:30:19,528
Listen, Maurice, please don't come here.
I can't see you.
1193
01:30:21,536 --> 01:30:26,362
Well, I won't be here. I get up.
I tell the maid not to let anyone in.
1194
01:30:27,666 --> 01:30:29,907
Please, Maurice, I beg you.
1195
01:30:29,907 --> 01:30:32,752
It's been a long time since I asked you for anything.
1196
01:30:32,752 --> 01:30:35,753
Maurice dear, please
Promise me you won't come.
1197
01:30:37,381 --> 01:30:41,924
I swear to you that I will get up,
I'll get dressed and leave the house, if you don't promise.
1198
01:31:27,669 --> 01:31:28,832
Taxi!
1199
01:31:42,306 --> 01:31:43,551
Sarah.
1200
01:31:44,974 --> 01:31:46,303
Maurice.
1201
01:31:46,303 --> 01:31:49,677
You made me get out of the house, out of bed.
1202
01:31:49,677 --> 01:31:52,225
At least leave me alone here.
1203
01:31:53,356 --> 01:31:57,816
- Peace is for the old and defeated.
- And for me, if I can.
1204
01:31:57,816 --> 01:32:00,985
But it's not life.
There is peace and oblivion in a grave.
1205
01:32:00,985 --> 01:32:03,228
- Yes.
- But not yet. Not for us.
1206
01:32:03,228 --> 01:32:07,022
This is where we start again.
All sadness is left behind.
1207
01:32:07,022 --> 01:32:09,572
It was my fault, Sarah. I didn't trust you.
1208
01:32:09,572 --> 01:32:12,909
I didn't know enough about you.
But now I'm safe.
1209
01:32:12,909 --> 01:32:14,739
And you too, Sarah. You too.
1210
01:32:14,739 --> 01:32:18,993
- No, I'm afraid.
- You don't need to have it anymore.
1211
01:32:20,168 --> 01:32:25,588
Listen to me, very carefully. You can't
walking around with the flu like that.
1212
01:32:25,588 --> 01:32:29,123
I want you to go home
and treat yourself for a few days.
1213
01:32:29,123 --> 01:32:33,295
I'll find a house somewhere in the country
where you can relax and rest.
1214
01:32:33,295 --> 01:32:37,086
I will not approach you
until you resolve everything with Henry.
1215
01:32:37,086 --> 01:32:38,758
I don't mind waiting.
1216
01:32:38,758 --> 01:32:42,680
I can wait years,
now that I know the end of the story.
1217
01:32:44,771 --> 01:32:46,976
No, Maurice. It's too late.
1218
01:32:48,523 --> 01:32:50,598
Why doesn't He leave you?
1219
01:32:50,941 --> 01:32:52,815
Are you afraid of Him?
1220
01:32:53,110 --> 01:32:55,779
You did not find faith, but fear.
1221
01:32:55,779 --> 01:32:57,404
Please let me be.
1222
01:32:57,404 --> 01:33:00,572
For Him to destroy you?
You called me a jealous lover.
1223
01:33:00,572 --> 01:33:02,816
But I never demanded of you what He demands.
1224
01:33:02,816 --> 01:33:05,281
You said that my love
was too possessive,
1225
01:33:05,281 --> 01:33:07,575
but it is nothing compared to His.
1226
01:33:07,575 --> 01:33:09,620
I just wanted your love. He wants your life!
1227
01:33:09,620 --> 01:33:12,031
- Have mercy on me!
- Did he show any?
1228
01:33:12,031 --> 01:33:14,081
- Still, you cling to Him.
- I don't listen.
1229
01:33:14,081 --> 01:33:16,373
- Because you fear the truth.
- Maurice, please.
1230
01:33:16,373 --> 01:33:18,749
Please don't make me leave here.
1231
01:33:18,749 --> 01:33:22,171
Why not?
This place is not a refuge, it is a prison.
1232
01:33:24,717 --> 01:33:28,845
We can have a life together. A good life.
1233
01:33:29,304 --> 01:33:31,343
Don't let Him take that away from you.
1234
01:33:31,343 --> 01:33:34,550
Gave you something more than that
of suffering, loneliness and despair?
1235
01:33:34,550 --> 01:33:36,349
I created everything.
1236
01:33:36,349 --> 01:33:39,304
I created my loneliness and my despair.
1237
01:33:40,646 --> 01:33:45,022
I didn't look for God. I invented God
to serve my purposes.
1238
01:33:47,192 --> 01:33:50,110
No, Maurice, don't tempt me.
1239
01:33:50,612 --> 01:33:54,525
I fought more against faith
than I fought against love and lost my strength.
1240
01:33:54,525 --> 01:33:58,197
I love you, Sarah.
No one has ever loved you so much.
1241
01:33:58,197 --> 01:34:00,075
Let's be happy.
1242
01:34:00,075 --> 01:34:04,027
Henry will only be hurt in his pride.
And pride quickly heals.
1243
01:34:04,027 --> 01:34:07,455
Find a new habit
to take your place.
1244
01:34:07,667 --> 01:34:11,366
Let's go, Sarah.
Nobody can stop us.
1245
01:34:13,630 --> 01:34:16,997
You love me. Let's spend our lives together.
1246
01:34:16,997 --> 01:34:18,881
Nobody can stop us.
1247
01:34:25,014 --> 01:34:28,013
Now you should go home, Sarah. It's cold.
1248
01:34:29,517 --> 01:34:31,425
I don't care about the cold.
1249
01:34:32,478 --> 01:34:36,640
And it's dark. Can I believe
anything in the dark.
1250
01:34:37,273 --> 01:34:39,099
Believe in us.
1251
01:34:39,649 --> 01:34:41,523
That's what I was referring to.
1252
01:34:42,860 --> 01:34:46,193
You shouldn't have run away from me
this way.
1253
01:34:46,193 --> 01:34:48,770
It wasn't you he was running away from.
1254
01:34:50,158 --> 01:34:52,482
Please, Maurice, leave me now.
1255
01:34:54,244 --> 01:34:57,992
- You should be in bed, Sarah.
- I will be soon.
1256
01:34:59,331 --> 01:35:01,821
I just want you to leave me here.
1257
01:35:02,583 --> 01:35:05,916
- Promise me it won't take long.
- Yes, I promise.
1258
01:35:06,795 --> 01:35:08,586
Are you telling me the truth?
1259
01:35:08,586 --> 01:35:11,209
Aren't you planning to run away from me again?
1260
01:35:11,209 --> 01:35:14,631
Maurice, dear Maurice,
I don't have the strength for that.
1261
01:35:15,260 --> 01:35:16,718
I'll take care of everything.
1262
01:35:16,718 --> 01:35:20,135
You just have to think about getting well.
1263
01:35:21,974 --> 01:35:24,808
- God bless you.
- God bless you.
1264
01:36:23,312 --> 01:36:25,637
I forgot how noble
It's this terrace.
1265
01:36:25,637 --> 01:36:29,181
And quite sheltered from the wind.
Sarah always liked him.
1266
01:36:29,181 --> 01:36:31,729
It's strange to imagine Sarah being sick.
1267
01:36:31,729 --> 01:36:34,937
He's not exactly sick.
It's more of a nervous issue, I think.
1268
01:36:34,937 --> 01:36:37,864
I thought of you for that, Miss Palmer.
She needs care.
1269
01:36:37,864 --> 01:36:39,905
Sarah always needed it.
1270
01:36:40,658 --> 01:36:43,363
He had such an unstable childhood.
1271
01:36:43,363 --> 01:36:47,495
- Did you meet her at that time?
- I met her father. The real father.
1272
01:36:47,495 --> 01:36:51,078
It's very similar to him,
loyal, affectionate and cheerful,
1273
01:36:51,078 --> 01:36:53,372
but always needing someone.
1274
01:36:53,372 --> 01:36:55,784
He died when she was two years old.
1275
01:36:56,962 --> 01:36:59,203
What time will you bring her tomorrow?
1276
01:36:59,203 --> 01:37:04,254
In the letter I suggested the midday train.
This way I can return the same day.
1277
01:37:04,254 --> 01:37:06,134
Sarah here is getting well quickly.
1278
01:37:06,134 --> 01:37:08,011
He knows how to make us feel at home.
1279
01:37:08,011 --> 01:37:11,843
It's a gift that old maids have.
In addition to others.
1280
01:37:11,843 --> 01:37:14,055
- Which?
- Being nosy.
1281
01:37:22,649 --> 01:37:25,815
Wait here. There will be luggage.
1282
01:37:31,405 --> 01:37:34,192
Tell Mrs. Miles I'm here, please?
1283
01:37:34,192 --> 01:37:38,362
Mr. Miles will receive it.
It's upstairs in the drawing room.
1284
01:37:41,038 --> 01:37:42,412
Thanks.
1285
01:37:48,001 --> 01:37:51,583
Between. I'm Sarah's mother, Mrs. Bertram.
1286
01:37:51,583 --> 01:37:54,422
- My name is Bendrix.
- Yes.
1287
01:37:55,215 --> 01:37:58,418
- Would you like a glass of port?
- No, thank you.
1288
01:37:58,418 --> 01:38:02,340
I don't usually come here, but Sarah
I was sick and Henry sent for me.
1289
01:38:02,340 --> 01:38:06,046
- Did Henry send for you? Is it serious?
- It's a very strong flu.
1290
01:38:07,099 --> 01:38:10,265
It's been like this for weeks,
getting in and out of bed.
1291
01:38:10,727 --> 01:38:14,392
- It's a bad winter for flu.
- Here's the doctor.
1292
01:38:14,392 --> 01:38:16,768
Good morning, Mrs. Bertram.
How is our patient?
1293
01:38:16,768 --> 01:38:18,481
The nurse says she slept better.
1294
01:38:18,481 --> 01:38:21,436
Great. Means
that is reacting to penicillin.
1295
01:38:21,436 --> 01:38:23,768
However, they should have called me
sooner.
1296
01:38:23,768 --> 01:38:27,065
- Sarah doesn't like doctors.
- No. Like most sane people.
1297
01:38:27,065 --> 01:38:29,860
It was always healthy.
There was only measles and chickenpox.
1298
01:38:29,860 --> 01:38:31,492
And they weren't serious.
1299
01:38:31,492 --> 01:38:33,699
This now helps her.
Is Mr. Miles up there?
1300
01:38:33,699 --> 01:38:36,870
Yes. He won't let go.
He's very worried.
1301
01:38:36,870 --> 01:38:39,410
He was very upset
when she got out of bed...
1302
01:38:39,410 --> 01:38:41,705
burning with fever and walked down the street in the rain.
1303
01:38:41,705 --> 01:38:45,789
It was a terrible night.
That's when he called Dr. Collingwood.
1304
01:38:45,789 --> 01:38:48,036
The doctor doesn't seem too worried.
1305
01:38:48,036 --> 01:38:51,463
He is not an expert.
Henry called the best.
1306
01:38:52,634 --> 01:38:57,010
I have to say, he gave everything to Sarah.
That's what consoles me.
1307
01:38:57,010 --> 01:39:01,556
When things go wrong, I say:
"At least Sarah had everything."
1308
01:39:01,556 --> 01:39:03,840
Anything but one thing.
1309
01:39:04,476 --> 01:39:07,678
In a way,
that worried me. It tormented me.
1310
01:39:08,396 --> 01:39:09,770
What?
1311
01:39:11,440 --> 01:39:13,562
I never told anyone.
1312
01:39:15,818 --> 01:39:17,894
I think I'm a little drunk.
1313
01:39:18,737 --> 01:39:23,113
- Do you think I'm drunk, Mr. Bendrix?
- No, of course not.
1314
01:39:23,113 --> 01:39:25,819
You know, I was Catholic,
1315
01:39:26,576 --> 01:39:29,862
but my husband wasn't
and wouldn't let me be.
1316
01:39:30,788 --> 01:39:35,164
And he was always watching
his first wife, so I got angry.
1317
01:39:35,164 --> 01:39:40,040
I said to Sarah, she was two years old:
"It'll be our secret."
1318
01:39:40,040 --> 01:39:42,286
But it was a beautiful revenge, wasn't it?
1319
01:39:42,286 --> 01:39:45,748
- Revenge against whom?
- My husband, of course.
1320
01:39:45,748 --> 01:39:48,212
We were in France
and I didn't know the words well,
1321
01:39:48,212 --> 01:39:51,053
but the priest did it
and we return before lunch.
1322
01:39:51,053 --> 01:39:54,090
- Did what?
- Baptized.
1323
01:39:54,848 --> 01:39:58,844
Of course she didn't know what it was,
but I knew.
1324
01:39:59,352 --> 01:40:01,842
I always hoped it would be like...
1325
01:40:01,842 --> 01:40:03,596
- Like a vaccine.
- Yes.
1326
01:40:03,596 --> 01:40:06,807
I thought this would stop her from committing
the same mistakes as me.
1327
01:40:06,807 --> 01:40:11,227
All those husbands
and not one that was worth it.
1328
01:40:12,695 --> 01:40:15,814
You don't mark a child's life
two years of splashing her with water...
1329
01:40:15,814 --> 01:40:17,779
and muttering a prayer.
1330
01:40:18,158 --> 01:40:20,648
Furthermore, it doesn't seem
that has worked for you.
1331
01:40:20,648 --> 01:40:23,992
I have had many temptations in my life.
1332
01:40:23,992 --> 01:40:26,865
Besides, I didn't really believe it.
1333
01:40:26,865 --> 01:40:29,992
But I hope it gives a good result in the end.
1334
01:40:30,583 --> 01:40:32,659
Do you think you should have told Henry?
1335
01:40:32,659 --> 01:40:35,420
- It's a little late, isn't it?
- Yes, you're right.
1336
01:40:35,420 --> 01:40:38,457
Now I realize this.
Only if she gets really sick.
1337
01:40:46,596 --> 01:40:50,094
- I need to ask you a big favor.
- Yes, Mrs. Bertram?
1338
01:40:50,094 --> 01:40:52,008
I arrived from Brighton today in such a hurry,
1339
01:40:52,008 --> 01:40:54,092
I forgot to put the money in my bag.
1340
01:40:54,092 --> 01:40:55,893
If it's within my power.
1341
01:40:55,893 --> 01:40:58,894
- Can I borrow 2?
- Of course.
1342
01:41:01,732 --> 01:41:04,602
Suddenly everything became very quiet
up there.
1343
01:41:36,926 --> 01:41:38,882
You were so sure.
1344
01:41:38,882 --> 01:41:43,760
I've never seen anything like this.
Her life seems to have slipped away.
1345
01:41:46,850 --> 01:41:50,977
Just before the end,
began to call: "Father."
1346
01:41:51,895 --> 01:41:55,844
He couldn't be her father, could he?
She never met him.
1347
01:42:37,472 --> 01:42:41,303
Sarah, I'm afraid.
1348
01:42:46,103 --> 01:42:50,479
Hon. Mr Maurice Bendrix
4 Astor Gardens - W.I.
1349
01:43:02,866 --> 01:43:06,613
Dear Maurice,
I write instead of calling.
1350
01:43:07,161 --> 01:43:10,364
I can't call
and hear your voice get strange,
1351
01:43:10,364 --> 01:43:13,159
when I tell you
that I'm not leaving with you.
1352
01:43:13,159 --> 01:43:14,908
Because I'm not going.
1353
01:43:15,459 --> 01:43:18,210
I love you and I can't see you again.
1354
01:43:19,796 --> 01:43:23,627
I don't know how I'm going to live
in this pain and longing...
1355
01:43:23,627 --> 01:43:27,333
and I'm always asking God
that is not hard.
1356
01:43:27,333 --> 01:43:31,210
I learned that we have to pray
how we make love,
1357
01:43:31,210 --> 01:43:33,426
with everything we have.
1358
01:43:34,098 --> 01:43:36,802
Maurice, my dear,
I believe that God exists.
1359
01:43:36,802 --> 01:43:41,304
I believe in all tricks.
There's nothing I don't believe in.
1360
01:43:41,304 --> 01:43:44,680
I fell in faith the same way I fell in love.
1361
01:43:44,940 --> 01:43:48,142
I've never loved like I love you.
1362
01:43:48,651 --> 01:43:52,647
And I never believed in anything
as I believe now.
1363
01:43:52,647 --> 01:43:55,358
Maurice dear, don't be mad.
1364
01:43:55,698 --> 01:43:58,900
You were always by His side
without knowing it.
1365
01:43:58,900 --> 01:44:01,862
You hated in me the things He hates.
1366
01:44:01,862 --> 01:44:06,863
You contributed to our separation
with your anger, your jealousy and your love.
1367
01:44:07,707 --> 01:44:10,873
Like you, you're a part of it all, Maurice,
1368
01:44:11,460 --> 01:44:15,670
just like you are a part of me
and we are both a part of God.
1369
01:44:15,670 --> 01:44:19,088
Goodbye, my great, great love.
1370
01:44:24,511 --> 01:44:26,551
Whatever you want, Sarah.
1371
01:44:28,723 --> 01:44:32,305
I believe that you are alive and that He exists.
1372
01:44:33,561 --> 01:44:35,101
But I'm tired.
1373
01:44:36,437 --> 01:44:38,974
Give me a break, Sarah.
1374
01:44:39,899 --> 01:44:41,808
Give me a break.
1375
01:45:04,000 --> 01:45:04,782
END
