Quiet, children. Daddy's sleeping.

They woke you up?

No, don't worry.

What a lovely day.

Beautiful Sunday.

They are asleep?

It's your day.

- Again... - Father's Day all day long.

How do you like mom's dress? Beautiful, isn't it?

Beautiful like mom.

Gisou! Come, Gisou.

Here is the car.

The babies are tired.

Careful... Come on.

Let me help you.

- Tell your daddy "Happy Father's Day". - Your Daddy Happy Day!

Thank you, sweetheart.

She is funny.

- Sir, why don't you say something?

- Say what? - Anything. Just say something.

You talk so nicely.

- What were we at? - The species revolution.

Evolution.

What's the origin of organic life? That's the question, as Hamlet would say.

Joseph!

Good evening!

Hi, Uncle Joe.

- Had a good Sunday? - Yes, you?

Great.

Beautiful lettuce.

Aren't they green?

- Father's Day, eh... - Well, Uncle's Day, too.

Good evening, for you.

Keep them, we have a garden.

Give me a kiss, eh?

- He's dirty and tired.

- I'd like a kiss, little man. - He's not as sweet as Gisou.

And he is a boy.

Be careful, he'll talk back soon.

Today, he said 'Madeleine' and 'train'.

Did he? Try 'Hello, Aunt Madeleine'.

He's stubborn. We had a nice day.

We stayed here watching TV and had a short nap until five.

- Same for us. - You too?

No, I moved. I looked at them.

Well, everything's fine.

We have to go, bedtime.

Let's go home kids.

Want the car back?

Don't bother. We stay home.

Tomorrow I�ll go on the bus.

Nice of you!

Take your flowers.

Good night, little one.

Good night, little cat.

Good night, daddy.

The countryside is beautiful.

I wonder what I like more:

the smell of the trees, the grass of the river...

It's ready!

Let's go!

Already noon?

Taken Jo's lunch-box too?

Sure, it's Monday.

- Care for one? - No, thanks.

- The game was great. - I saw some of it on TV.

- Just when the Reim's goal... - Great, but the referee was unfair.

- Lunch inside or outside? - Outside.

No, inside.

- Heads or tails? - Heads.

You win.

Where's Pierrot?

With Adele, at the window.

- He's visiting. - For candy, of course.

- I want some, too. - Come, you'll get some.

- Has Pierrot been good? - He's been adorable.

- Hello, Mrs. Chevalier. - Hello.

- Getting married soon? - That's why we're here.

We went to Paris to find a ready-made dress.

But she liked nothing. She isn't easy.

No, but ready-to-wear doesn't fit.

Not even in fashion. I want what I saw in Elle.

A dress with a short cape.

- Hope you can do it? - Yes, for when?

Next Saturday.

It's short.

A long gown, I mean.

Short time, long dress.

Here's the sample, we didn't know how many yards...

Here's the pattern.

Let's measure you.

- Will you wear heels? - Of course.

Here's daddy.

Hi horse, hi daddy.

Do you have sugar in your pocket?

- For the horse? - Always.

Hey, horse! Is it good?

Here you are.

Already here?

What a welcome.

- Hello everybody. - I meant glad to see you early.

That's how to speak to a husband.

Oh, Miss is getting married?

- Congratulations! - Yes.

Our Yvette is leaving Fontenay.

For nearby, L'Hay-les-Roses.

Still superb with roses.

- Better than Kremlin-Bicetre. - Don't exaggerate.

Getting married is essential.

The fitting is next Sunday?

What about the fabric, 6 yards?

You'll get it tomorrow. You saved my life.

Little man...

How was it all day long?

- What's all day long? - It's a day.

It's sunny then.

Why then you said was it all day long?

Why don't you come to me?

Here I am.

You goofed.

Her husband is in Kremlin-Bicetre, in the Mercier Mausoleum.

Imagine a wedding in a mausoleum.

That's silly.

You know I�m hungry.

We'll eat in five minutes.

I'm going to Vincennes tomorrow.

Several days of working in a new building.

Is Uncle Jo coming too?

No, he wants me on my own.

He wants to retire.

Dad, give me some bread.

As long as he takes care of the bills.

Post office, please.

There on the right.

Miss, please, 34 in Fontaney.

Funny.

I'm moving to Fontaney soon.

Booth 1.

Joseph.

It's me.

A problem...

They forgot about the chimney.

It's built. The closet doesn't fit.

Do I fix it here or?

Okey.

I'll take new measures.

Finished?

No, not yet.

Will we see you soon?

Early July.

It'll be okey if Annie comes at 8:30 to baby-sit.

We could make the 9:00 show.

I'd love it.

Hope it's a western.

No, horses in this one.

A French film then?

With Bardot and Moreau.

For the first time together.

Which one you prefer?

As a woman...

As a woman? You.

I'm back early. I'll catch up tomorrow.

Come on, both of you.

The ad for Nichola's wines.

Stop the music.

John! Some rose for you. It's St. John's day.

You are as good as gold.

A real father for me.

Get the glasses.

Gosh, I had to hurry from Vincennes to make this.

Right on time.

It's time.

Hey, big fiesta.

Drinking and smoking.

Who's got a light?

Light and bonfire for St. John.

You've put on enough wood.

Give this to Auntie.

Give this to dad.

- Are the ovens ready? - Two are made.

It'll be good.

No flames. Skewers need coals.

It's enough to cook uncle?

Smoked meat is better.

Like cowboys eat.

Indians eat the same way.

- Indians eat it spicier. - With peppers?

Red skin, red pepper.

- Closed. He isn't home. - I'll bring the car in.

Gosh, it's a girl.

Oh, a girl.

- Almost 7 pounds. - Born at 2 pm.

The key as usual. Please feed the kids. I'll be back at 10.

- So you've got a sister. - I wanted a brother.

We have a niece at last.

I'll close the gate so no one steals the kids.

Are there kidnappers?

No, I just want them to sleep quietly.

Gisou will be happy later.

I hope we will too.

The pretty bird.

- Who is he? - It's John-Good.

The husband of Anna-Good-Maid?

- Fontaney again? - No, today a Paris number.

Diderot, 56 13.

Mr. Chevalier, please. It's his brother.

It's you? Bravo!

Yes, we are happy.

Isabelle!

Nice name.

No, I�m on an outside job.

I want to send a telegram.

- For a happy event? - Yes.

I'm an uncle again. How much?

- Nephews or the price? - The price.

I've got 2 nephews, a niece and 2 kids.

The kids are yours?

40 cents. Cheap for a family.

- When will you be in Fontenay? - Early in July.

It's coming soon. I'm afraid I�ll get lost.

It's a nice place with roses.

Is a call to Tel-Aviv expensive?

Very.

- I'm not going with you. - All right.

I'll let you work.

- Where is the best coffee around here? - At Le Chateau, not Le Castel.

What about my lunch-box?

I'll give it to the zoo lions or to the bears.

Does your wife make money?

You could say that.

She's nice and cooks well.

I'll have another cup.

Waiter, two coffees!

Does she work?

Yes, a dressmaker.

And you?

Woodworker. Can't you tell?

- Not from your face. - I don't smell of wood?

No, more like the woods.

Okey, I love it, don't you?

I like it too.

But also movies and dancing.

Fontaney may be slightly dead.

Actually peaceful.

TEMPTATION

MYSTERY.

Why do you come to Fontaney?

I can get a new flat, a studio...

...thanks to my brother. He's away...

...in the tires business and I�m in the wires business!

He got me the flat for 2 years, it's his when he returns.

I'd rather live and work at the same place.

I requested my transfer.

I can go back to Vincennes for dancing.

There are dance halls in Fontaney,

and 2 movie theaters.

No big coffee shops like here,

but roses.

That would be a treat.

You are the treat.

What about moving?

Let's see the chateau.

- Inside or outside? - Inside.

Outside.

Okey.

Have to get back to work.

Since you're a woodworker, could you put up my shelves?

Sure, I can. When?

I'm moving in on Saturday with all my stuff.

I'll come around 2:00 or 3:00. The white building on the square.

Paul Bert Avenue.

Yes. Number 4, entrance B, 5th floor on the right.

My name is Emilie Savignac.

Emilie, I love you.

- I mean, happy to know you. - Well...

Well, why?

You're unbelievable.

Don't believe me.

But I never lie.

- Time to work. Shall we go? - Already? I still have time...

...to get some sun.

I'll stay here.

- Then I�ll leave you. - See you.

- On Saturday at 4:00. - Remember the address?

Entrance B, 5th floor, left...

- No, right. See you. - See you Emilie.

I LOVE

This fabric is nice but slippery.

It's endless.

And they want dresses for the girls.

- They could have told you! - You know...

...at the last minute, they thought of little bridesmaids.

I worked hard today.

Me too. I finished in Vincennes.

I got 2 bottles of wine as a tip.

This little garage is big job to paint.

Stop, you have time.

But hide it so that Pierrot doesn't see it.

Look! It looks nice.

Beautiful. Well, it will be beautiful.

Careful! The pins, the paint!

No paint on my fingers.

Some on your short.

Doesn't matter.

Don't be mad at me, or I�ll spank you.

Hope I finish the dresses for Saturday.

Don't wear yourself out.

- Say no for the girls. - I can't.

They're nice, they've invited us. Saturday afternoon, it'll be fun.

And I�ll see how the gown looks.

- Can't go, I accepted a job. - How sad!

You'll go with the kids. I'll come later to get you.

Bedtime. I feel like sleeping.

Me, too.

Adele, look at the bride!

- It was worth working. - She's wonderful.

Exquisite.

See you this afternoon?

Around 3. But my husband is working.

Will you lend me a picture to show him?

The bride is beautiful.

This way... Get close together.

Closer...

Don't move.

That's it.

There.

I love you, too.

I feel happy.

Be happy too, don't worry.

I'm free, and you're not the first one.

So love me.

Such happiness...

Champagne!

It's a must for the baby.

She's 8 days old.

Some champagne on her.

I'll get her.

Cheers to the family...

Can baby drink some?

Cheers to Isabelle!

To you Fran�ois.

It tickles.

Beautiful baby.

Little one, smile to me.

Look at me.

Are you quiet? Asleep?

Theresa, come to see the cabin.

Is it a doll house for Isa later?

It's a trapper's cabin for us.

- No girls allowed. - Not even me?

You can do anything you want...

...except always carrying this one.

He must walk.

- I'm taking a breath. - No problem.

So wonderful to be altogether.

Where is Gisou?

Glued to the crib. Soon she'll ask for a little sister.

I'd like many children.

But let's wait a little.

I think so, too.

I don't want you exhausted.

We need our time to rest together.

Is it to rest together?

That, too.

I came for the shelves.

Wondered if you could...

Seriously, I came for that.

You can't live it like that. Is that true?

See, I want the closet against the wall,

and a shelf at the top.

That's all.

It won't hold like that.

Don't stay, I like you too much.

Sit over there while I work.

I need more shelves to do it.

- Finished already? - For now, yes.

I'll finish in the next few days.

Can I come closer?

Tell me if I can help more.

A board and two trestles.

You came back.

- You hadn't said anything. - You couldn't tell?

I was afraid you'd say first time it's a surprise...

...second time it's a habit.

- Every day is a new day. - Are you happy at home, too?

Very happy.

- Your wife is not a habit? - No, I love her very much.

We get along, we have fun.

Plus our kids. Surprises every day.

- And me? - I met you and I love you.

Post woman Terribly Tempting.

Pensive Tender Thoughts.

Passionate Time Together.

Your Fran�ois.

You have to do it differently, sir.

There...

You're good.

You, too.

Were you happy once with a man?

Yes, once.

For 3 months.

Then, he left me.

Then, I waited for another happiness.

When you know, you're patient.

Were you sad?

Not that much.

I don't like sadness.

I was...

...like... slightly aloof.

Now, I�m here.

I'm myself, I mean.

I like that about you.

And it's the same for me.

I can't say.

I'm different since I met you.

On the contrary...

I'm more myself.

You know I met my wife...

...when I was at the service.

It was love at first sight, we married when I got out.

Had I known you first, you'd be my wife.

Sleeping together is fine when in love.

I met her first, I married her.

And I love her.

She gave me my joy.

Now I meet you...

You please me too, I love you too.

I have enough joy for both of you.

Happiness works by addition.

You may like having two wives.

Well, I didn't look for it.

We won't be able to meet often.

But, together it'll be good.

And apart, we can think about it.

We are together.

When I imagine you with your wife,

it's rather unpleasant.

You know I love her, I can't lie.

Not my fault if you came second.

That's the way it is.

But we are lucky...

...to know each other...

- ...and be alive. - That's true.

I love you.

Me, too.

Tell me one thing...

Are she and I the same to you?

No, very different.

You make love better,

you have fun.

It's like a new wine for me.

My head is spinning.

And pleasure gets inside you, too.

Like with Therese.

She likes lovemaking too,

but she is calmer.

I'm the one who leads the game.

She likes me to have fun with her.

She's tender.

Always there...

And our kids look like her.

You see, I�m being honest.

You taught me another game.

We are more alike.

Therese is like a hardy plant.

You are like an animal set free.

I love nature.

Quite a speech!

Do you understand?

I understand...

...French and Fran�ois.

Some look bored on Sundays.

- They prefer the factory. - They must look the same on weekends.

A new client came yesterday.

- Ugly and fat, mean-looking. - You should've said you were too busy.

I said so. I saw myself sadly sewing for her.

I could see you pricking her to deflate her.

- I was afraid. I said no. - You're wonderful,

always doing what I like you to do. Except rice with chocolate.

We can't have it every day.

What I love, I can have every day.

Radishes, fried potatoes, rice.

- And you as a second desert. - Every day you have me.

Deserts mustn't be the same.

- She's been dreaming. - She's in love, thoughtful.

- With one of us? - No, I would have told you.

Who then?

I won't say.

You know mw, I don't like mysteries.

But love is secret.

- Even her little heart is hidden. - It doesn't match any brooch.

Will we meet him?

No, it's different.

I like to go out with you. Nothing more.

She'll tell me.

At least let's dance.

Hasn't the baby changed?

She's bigger and cute.

Auntie is crazy about her.

She'll love her as much as Gisou.

- Daughters and dolls... - Hi, boss.

I love dolls too.

Saturday I met one, a Dalida.

Minus the accent.

- You're a skirt-chaser. - I do my hair for it.

You could use a guitar.

In romance, I can sing duets...

...as long as I can change my partner.

I'd rather have one only, a good one.

You're too young to get one, after you get one, you'll want many.

Unless you are like Fran�ois.

- He doesn't look unhappy. - I like fidelity.

The same woman, your whole life?

Your wife�s wonderful, though...

Well, I�m not capricious. When I love, I can't stop.

Come on, guys!

You're young, okey, but...

What about working? It's Monday. You have to earn your pension.

For old people,

I feel the same. I loved my father

I don't think him very often.

But I love him, he's here. It goes on...

There are lots of people.

In such a big place, I feel less alone.

- I'll go back to work at 1. - Me too.

Let's see if it's for real.

- If I pinch you? - Not exactly.

Do you really love me?

You said "love".

It's true even if I�m asleep.

- What time is it? - 9.

The weather's fine. The kids have had breakfast.

Kiss me if there is no coffee.

- A kiss or coffee? - Everything.

So you'll get everything.

Are we going to the country?

Fran�ois, drink your coffee.

Gisou, you're under my feet. Please move.

- Go play somewhere else. - They are so cute.

- They are sleepy. - Wait...

Isn't it nice?

This is the best spot.

- I can't think about winter. - Don't.

Actually, I don't.

I feel very happy.

You look happy these days.

Even more than usual.

- Does it show? - Oh yes. What's it, summer?

Come on babies, nap time.

What makes you so happy?

It's more happiness.

It's hard to explain.

You may not understand.

- Sharing may hurt you. - Hurt?

You're right, I�m clumsy.

Speak to me.

No, drop it.

Sure I can understand, I�m not stupid.

My love, that's not what I mean.

I don't like lying.

- Are you sad? - Don't know. I'm listening.

Don't be sad.

It's simple.

You and I and the kids...

We're like an apple orchard.

A square field.

Then I notice an apple tree that grows...

...outside the field,

and blooms with us.

More flowers, more apples...

It adds up, you know.

Is there somebody who loves you like I do?

Not like you.

Are you in love too?

Yes, it just happened.

And it gives me such joy.

How long have I not been alone with you?

A month.

You shouldn't say that.

Am I different with you?

Less kind? Less loving?

You're the only one I love. I'm your wife.

I love you.

Look at me.

I love you.

It's like...

It's like I have 10 arms to hug you.

And you've ten arms for me.

We're all mixed together.

But I find myself with extra arms.

I'm taking nothing from you, see?

And she's not jealous?

She loves I love you.

She doesn't want to take anything.

You won't live with her?

Oh, no.

Do you understand?

It's difficult. It's so new.

If it hurts you,

I�ll do what you want.

If you ask me to do without her, I�ll do it.

I want you to be happy.

You and the kids.

You and I.

You first.

You know...

It's too bad to miss more life and love.

If you could love me the same...

Even more if you wish...

Maybe.

Yes, I think, I could.

Yes? You could?

- How much do you love me? - More, since it makes you so happy.

My love...

Imagine a blanket of herbs and walls of leaves...

We would be both alone.

Mom, I�ve slept enough.

Where's mom? In the woods?

Don't know, I just woke up.

Excuse me, have you seen a blonde with a blue dress?

No, mister.

I wasn't paying attention.

- Seen a blonde woman in blue? - A young woman, yes.

A blue dress with some yellow in it?

One went along, holding flowers.

- A young blonde lady? - What?

A young blonde lady?

A blue and yellow dress...

Look, what's happening there?

Fran�ois can't keep them, how would he?

I'm able to raise my daughter's children.

You live too far away, it's not possible.

We could do it too.

You're a son to us.

Easier if they come with us.

Three or five! They know each other.

We love them already.

- If I take Gisou, you the kid... - Don't separate them.

It's not that we don't want Gisou...

Uncle is right.

If Fran�ois agrees, we'll take them.

I'll be able to see them on Sundays.

Even in the evening on weekdays.

They are my children.

I know, it's terrible.

I'll go with the kids early August.

- Who are they with? - My brother and his wife.

We'll go near a river.

- And you? - I'll come back.

Back to work in September.

- And you? - I'm here.

I'm happy and unhappy.

Can we put the radio on?

- Can I put the radio on? - Sure.

You!

You bought a table?

And a record player.

I thought of you a lot.

It was a long summer for me.

Me too, I thought a lot of you.

I still want to be happy.

If you are willing...

One thing I�m afraid of is to take someone else's place.

I loved you both.

I miss Therese very much and I love you.

That's not all.

The kids... I'd like you to love them.

I saw them, they're cute.

- Maybe you don't want to marry. - Doesn't matter.

You are my happiness, you and your life.

I want you.

But not at night here.

May I come tomorrow after work?

I'll be here at 6. It's still daytime.

What about Sunday?

We'll go to the forest if you want.

I'll let you tame them, I�ll go for a walk.
