Go along

Hey,stop those men

What a lot

Go along with you Charlie

Well I did my best,Mr Barney

You are going to do better. Bad luck,but it's raining

and put them on the streets and kill the show,it's down and dead

Look at them

What a lot

Of all the..blimey I never saw anything like them

Where did you dig up these corpses?

Sorry boys

I shouldn't have said that, we have to do something

What can I do,governor?

I know,dress them up as clowns,plenty of paint,make them a part of the show

I think you got a brain wave there,boy

Never mind that,get going

I want all those boards all over town before the next show

OK,Bud.Come on you lads.This way and lively

Here put it down black around your eye

Look a proper joker now,governor

Don't take all their butts you fellows

That's expediently.What did I tell you?

It makes a difference to anybody

It's good advertisement now,bring them out on the road as quickly as you can

Yes Gov

Come along you fellows.Step out.

As soon as you are ready get out to town and pick up your boards

I know that face

You worked in the circus before

I'll forgive you ,I never forget a face

You were a clown

No

Can't remember everybody

Wait a minute.I have seen you before

You worked for me.You were part of an act

Does it matter

Yes.It does matter.I'm getting it

You were a double act weren't you?

A long time ago

Twins.The de Lisle

I am sorry to see you like this

Forgive me I didn't recognize you

Where have you been? Where did you go? What happened to you?

Why didn't you come to me? I was your friend

de Lisle.You were a great actor.

Yes

The de Lisle brothers.Jules and Georges

Which are you?

You could never tell us apart,Monsieur Barney

Which are you?

You never tell me you know

Another drinking magician, anyway it's a darn good act

Thank you

You know in that beacon of yours,the crowd was so quiet you could hear a twin drop

It's a good gag,is it?

I am very glad to came and passed and see the act

Very nice of you,Mr Barney.I have a set of cigars here.Won't you sit down

No thanks.I say did anyone know you two apart

I think even your wives get mixed up sometimes

We are not married

Not yet

That coin spinning routine for the dangerous job

very impressive good for the showmanship

I know,it's quite true,the coin is for the one ready to jump

You don't say ,well it is a very regional act

I've never seen such sort of work done before in circus,you know

Don't you ever use a net?

No.We don't need one

You are very plucky

Well,boys

What about signing on the dotted line?

Monsieur Barney.Will you be our guest we can discuss it at Cafe du Mont

Cafe du Mont,Rue Hoarne now,thanks very much

In,now,in half an hour?

An after you'd better show me a bit of Paris,you know

All right,before I go boys, let me do a trade secret

Which is which?

Shall we tell him?

The offer of a contract

And the biggest publicity England have ever seen

Perhaps we tell him.This is Georges

And this is Jules

As like as two peas in a pot, you boys get away with murder

I'll see you half an hour at Cafe du Mont

Hospitalites?

What have you got?

Coronas,Corona,Bulevar,Maestro cigars

With my compliment

Merci Monsieur Merci Monsieur,may Allah bless you with great winning

I'll keep the ticket.Jules loses everything

Boys,to business,the full season, April to October,65 oh 75 £ a week

A hundred pounds a week is a bargain

Hundred pounds? I've never paid that to any trapeze act

But we are not any trapeze act

-75£ a week,lot of publicity,star.. -We had a very good offer from Barcelona

A hundred pounds a week

Hundred pounds? Impossible.What about you?

Sure you don't agree with your brother

I never too

What's your figure?

-Let me think.I prefer to accept.. -Yes

A hundred pounds?

All right,you boys,you win,it's a deal

Hundred pounds is lot of money. Don't you drink?

I always do it for him

Adieux Paris

Bon Chance to England

Boys,here is success in Blackpool

There you are

Hello, what ever are your insurances,like your act,didn't they?

Just a moment,what's in it in this note,a gag isn't it?

No,really,seriously,just a moment. No publicity.

We quit.Kind regards. Yours sincerely. Georges and Jules

It's a joke

Oh,no joke.We have quit. We go back to France

Back to France.You can't do a thing like that.

Everything is all right for you here

Monsieur Barney we do not like to be pushed around

You promised us the biggest publicity England have ever seen

-Have you seen any publicity Jules? -No

I haven't seen any publicity

-Have you? -No

So we go back to Paris

Paris,beautiful Paris

Of course you're pulling my leg

But joking apart,Georges Jules, whichever it is

Surely my publicity man Mike Bergen has spoken to you

-Yes he was very nice -Good

Came to say hello

Oh it is Mike Bergen.I'll see to him myself

All right boys,you won't have any further cause for complaint

Mike Bergen

Can I do publicity or can I do publicity

What a smasher,what a lay out

Me or the poster

The poster

What do you think?

One day you will break down and say something nice to me

I often wonder why I'm so crazy about you

Because I'm smart that's why

Because I will get somewhere and you know it

I'm going to lift this fashion break right out of Barney's left

I'll take the whole thing over and write it myself

Maybe I do a tour,South America,

before I am through it will be Mike Bergen fashion folly,you'll see

Think we will get away with it this time?

Listen,if this goes over beam,we will sacrifice this ad trip in six weeks

You flee along with me baby, you will be dribbling with diamonds

-We are going places -Sounds good

If I don't believe it?

Here you are

This one is registered for Mr de Lisle

I'll sign.Give it in

Looks as he had a little job finding him

Read her,terriffics.Look at his girlfriend hard after him

Yes,he is name with Loterie Nationale

Barney,beat it quick

There you are,now what..

What do you think you're doing

Doing what? The idle taking breaks job off

I came to get publicity for de Lisle

They have been in this country for a week and we haven't heard a word about them

The Berley will be the big thing in the show,I got some smashing

I'm not interested in your ideas, why don't you do as you are told

But it was your idea,Barney, you said she was great

Oh my idea was it? I don't want to hear anything more about it

What about all my work

This is going to your head, I won't have it,you see,

I want some big publicity for de Lisles, it is their first engagement in England

They are cards I understand and I'm paying them 100 £ a week

And I want to put over,and I want to put over big

What kind of story can make over a trapeze act

No story.Are you crazy? Any wrong with your eyes?

Haven't you noticed that they are twins?

The crowd was so quiet you could hear a twin drop

It's a good gag.Am I paying you 8 £ a week to tell me there is no story

But Bob

I'll fix someone 9£ a week and get value for my money,you silly,Bergen

Publicity

What's in him? Roaring like a lion

Nothing when I am in fact on the dole

What's that?

You and me.Old follies.Everything I've been working on for weeks

No Mike.Let Barney know what a sweatshop

Shut up.And all the printed things sent over.I'm going to get a drink

Me too

What's the matter with Barney?

What has he got the best thing out of his shares

He has.Hasn't he? He's the boss isn’t he?

All he is worried about is his precious de Lisles

-de Lisles -de Leos

Where the bloody acrobats get me

Hundred a week

Amazing

You can put the cure over.You got the brains around here.

What I get for it? 8 mouldy quids a week. And they get a hundred

I would like to get my hand on some of that French dough

Oh,what I hope.Hope doesn't get us anywhere

Doesn't it?

My great chance

Jules de Lisle Loterie Nationale premiere prim numero 66422

A million francs

You're late darling where have you been?

I've been busy.We got to pack

Pack? What do you mean pack?

Where are we going?

Isn't that the fair old bait? You're going

Me? What are you talking about is incredible

I know.You are tired of me

All right who is moving in Mr Romeo?

Those letters the registered ones

One of them was de Lisle Jules, they won a million

A million?

Set down in that letter

I didn't know you could read French

Education ,they are wonderful things

My dictionary is made for

As far as I can make out

They pay out in Paris on a ticket presented with this letter

Where do we come into this? It is not ours

They don't know about it.Nobody does, but you and me for the moment

All they have to do is to get that ticket

And here have it all wrapped up in pink ribbon.You are cracked

Not expecting to.I've been to their hotel room drifting them like a vacuum cleaner

Mike.You haven't? You know land yourself in jail one of these days

Now listen.I can take care of myself

I'm not so sure

Now listen Penny Mosley

Yes you watch me

It seems ashamed,nice fellow

You believe my word or I get another dame that will

God doubts,too cold even for them supermen

Did you enjoy it?

Oh.Not exactly the French riviera

But he says it keeps us fit

So it does

Old fashioned Blackpool custom,have one?

-Jules? -I'm Georges.No thank you

I think I swallowed a few in their natural state

You have Punch and Judy in France?

What do you call it?

Punch and Judy

Punch and Judy.We call it Polichinelle

Polichinelle

Shall we get a look?

Don't you like it?

Oh Yes fun for children

Then I'm a child,I'm a kid

You'll be very handsome when you grow up Mr de Lisle

My name is Jules

Are you with the circus? I didn't see your name

No,I'm not important.I'm just programmes,shop-lists,cigarettes

Of course I'm really a singer,

but you know how it is these days a girl must live

I'm sure you are a wonderful singer

It's nothing compared with you

Will you sing for me sometime?

Perhaps

-Jules -Yes

You'll be late for the show,Mademoiselle

-I'll see you later -Au revoir

-Excuse me -Got a light?

I've been telling Georges,you feeling a couple of twins is obviously a good story

We can do that by twin competition

Very lovely idea

Nice lighter

-I hope to see you again -Love to

-Au revoir -Au revoir

-See you after the show -I'll be there

Au revoir

His lighter? Mike

He loves it,see,and you found it, it may be worth a million francs

Oh Mr de Lisle

How nice meeting you again

Hello

I was hoping I would see you

You live here?

Yes,Mademoiselle,I was just going out for a walk,nice evening

May I come with you?

Yes.Certainly.Je suis chante'

-And I love walking -Do you?

Let's walk

You know.It'll be very good.I have something nice for you

Thank you very much it belongs to my brother

So you are not Jules?

No,I'm sorry,I'm the other one,but I'll give it to him

No,I will.Is he inside?

Yes.He is in the restaurant and finishing his coffee but

The I'll see you later,bye bye

Mademoiselle I thought you loved walking

-Good evening Madame -Good Evening.I was looking for someone

-Mr de Lisle -Mr de Lisle.Yes

Thank you

Hello

-Hello -How nice meeting you again

I was hoping to see you

My lucky day.Won't you sit down?

Thank you

Do you live here Mr de Lisle?

Please,Jules

All right Jules

Yes.We live here.Would you like a drink,Mademoiselle?

-Penny -Oh,yes

But I thought your name was Gloria

Yes Gloria Gregg,that's going to be my stage name one day

Then we must drink to Gloria Gregg

Waiter! What would you like?

A gin and lime please

Won't you have a nice French drink?

-Yes -Two Benedictines,please

My lighter?

You lost it on the beach. I found it.I'm so glad

So am I

You know,you are so careless, looks very expensive

You should keep it safe where you keep your other valuables

Thinks like a lighter, I'll like to keep with me

Thank you

Tell me.When you saw me here in the lounge,did you know that I was Jules?

Of course,silly

But how? People as a rule cannot tell who is who

How did you?

Intuition or something

-To your intuition -Thank you

A million francs

Haven't you ever wished you had money so you could give up the act?

If we had enough money,we might

People are lucky sometimes,a cousin of mine won 10000£ on the Irish Streak

Your cousin was lucky

Georges and I have tickets for the Loterie Nationale ever since we were so high

But all we win is 10 francs

Have you got one now?

Yes,but we never win anything

I know.Let me touch it. Then it will bring you luck

People call me lucky Penny

I have never seen a French Lotterie Nationale ticket before

Don't know where it is

You haven't lost it?

No.I know.You played.Don't worry.You'll make me lucky

You think so

You have already

It's you

Yes.It's me.I'm sorry

When you hold me in your arms..

Poor Georges to sleep on a wonderful night like this

I could sleep if you've be quiet

I tried to be quiet,but I failed

You wake everybody.Are you drunk?

Yes.I've drunk but not with wine. Do you know Georges?

Those English girls,you think them beautiful but cold

No.If you know them a little closer.No

They are not cold

I see

It leaves Monsieur Jules de Lisle from Paris

to bring about this miraculous change

Perhaps

Perhaps it does

All right.Who is this wonderful girl?

Not cold English girl

Don't you remember? She brought back my lighter

Penny

My lucky Penny

Yes.And Mike Bergen's girlfriend

Perhaps she was

But she is no longer

I tried to get it out of him.He said it was safe but where somewhere

But where for Pete's sake

In the bank,under the mattress, going on a picture,where?

How do I know? I asked him to show me the ticket

I can't keep asking him, he'll get suspicious

Listen,there will be somebody else asking questions before long

And it will be the French Lottery People

Lottery officials?

You haven't thought of that,have you? Blimey,I have

-And I'm writing them a letter -You?

Sure,I'm putting myself as de Lisle personal representative

de Lisle?

All right.de Lisle they have had an accident,see,

and they are sending me to collect the money for them,see

It's a good thing someone has got the brain and the size fit

How would you say Dear Sir I've received your letter of the 14th

Chere Monsieur Juswin

Chere Don't know

I've been spending all that time with a French

With my education I could take charge of this letter

Well I hope you will

But I have better go now.He's waiting

Don't worry.He is crazy about me

I'll get the ticket somehow

You'd better and quick.Go on.Scram

-Mike -Yeah

Aren't you pretending you are de Lisle English representative?

Yes.So what?

Why not write the letter in English

It's a good job that someone has the brain in this outfit

Go on.Scram

And try.That's it.Straight your back

That's lovely.Oh,look who is here

-Penny out there -Yes,dear

-Very good view there -You look very nice from here

What's the time Ron?

-Twenty minutes past ten -Thank you

Good Morning Ron

Good Morning Georges

What happened to you?

Do you know what time it is?

I'm sorry

I'll work out a new routine I'll show you

I'll catch this time

What's the matter?

I want to talk to you

We can talk later,I want to go on with this now,go and change

I'm sorry Georges I have an appointment

I want some money

An appointment? I see

How much do you want?

I have had a lot of expenses 20,30 £

Or you can cash your cheque on your own account can't you?

I'll lend you some till you get out of the bank

Sorry but it won't be enough

My bank manager says that there is no money on my account

I've to look into it

No money left?

You mean you spent all your savings?

Are you crazy? What you think you are doing?

What's that to you,Georges, it's my money isn't it?

Not worry I'll pay you back

All right.Take your girl out.Take 10 girls out,but don't go off your head

Thank you

That's my business.

No.It's my business too.We cannot do the act without each other

And we won't be able to do it if you keep having appointments

Remember Jules,we cannot do this,work for ever,we must save

You worry too much,always money,money, money

Yes.And your neck

And my neck

We haven't broken our necks yet

We are not going to break them for a few more years

until then,why, Georges, I want to have a good time

You should try too sometime

Make you feel better

-Guess what you get it all tangled -Sorry

Thank you

You can give me a cigarette please

I don't smoke

Since when?

Till now

You are so different from your brother

You know I have the feeling he doesn't like me

No.Don't think that.No.Georges is in depth with all work,money,perfection

And you no ambition?

-Only one -Silly

Don't you really care about money?

All the money I want.It's one Penny

Careful. People watching

Mr Millionaire a bad penny will be home at midnight with a good ticket I hope

So do I

Penny,I know people are watching but would you marry me?

Marry you?

But I mean,serious

Sure,I didn't expect

What I mean is your ancestry,your brother

My brother he doesn't mean more to me than you

You know that I love you,Penny

Of course

Not worry about anything else

Here

Do you like it?

Like it? Beautiful

Thank you.Good night Sir

Say Good Night

Be nice to Duckie

You look lovely darling

Would you mind holding this for a moment

Hello Mike

Mike I..

All right,all right,you can never tell me

We'll have a lovely job,haven't we?

Nice,long evenings looking into his gorgeous eyes

A regular love's young dream, couldn't be sweeter,could it?

May I ask where that is getting me

Come on,come on what's the excuses done

Oh you to put your friendship for the acrobat, stick my mouth

Sounds that you are being jealous Mike

Jealous? Nothing.For how long do you think we can go on like this for?

Don't you realize the winning number will be published any day now

We are risking of losing a fortune.And what have you done about it? Nothing

de Lisle won a million

de Lisle won a million

You stay in

Congratulations

And Georges was in front page

Two other papers

Yes but they didn't write to us. We got the ticket

Why worry we won

What's going on here?

What's all this talk about a million?

Hello Barney

Glad you joined us

The de Lisle they win a million francs on the lottery and they didn't know?

A million francs.Congratulations. Marvelous.What a bit of luck? Million

I can't believe it I was in the cafe when he bought the ticket,you remember?

I bought one myself

Where is our ticket Georges.You have it

I hope you haven't made a mistake

No I haven't made no mistake I have it here

Boys and girls you better get going if you aren't

Hurry up

Some people are born lucky

You see.Top of the list.First brackets

Well I'll be..

It's the same

It's the same

We won a million

Write them a note,champ

I still can't understand why they didn't write us

One is notified as a rule

Yes.What about my ticket. I want a prize too

No,Monsieur Barney,no

I have to work for every penny I get

-Yes.A price -How much?

Twenty francs

-Twenty francs. -Nice going boss.

What are you boys going to do for the million?

Buy out the boss

I'll take a fiver down,what is to be?

House in the country,yacht, and trip round the world

Why not all three,you can afford it now

No.I don't think so

This is for when we say good bye to the circus

And then,perhaps,perhaps a little farm,or a vineyard

No this is for later

What do you say Jules

Georges is right,that was our idea

But I think I changed lately maybe I want my little farm right now

And the money in my pocket to spend

-Here's the champagne you asked for -Thank you Jerry

To all millions.Every time I call you it's going to cost you a dollar

-Here's the change -Here's your first dollar

Thank you very much

Fifteen minutes

Fifteen minutes

Come in Jules

There is plenty of time Georges, you must all have a drink with me

You two over there come along,take some glasses

-What happened? -It's all right..

We still got our chance to get quick

Jules is alone in the dressing room, you see,and you got to talk to him

Georges is the one who has got the ticket

George.Where has he got it?

Look to yourself.He's got to get the ticket from Georges

Tell him that it is either you or Georges,see,

tell him,you are leaving, if you don't get it

Make anything,do anything,make a thing

It's of no use,he'll only think because he won the money

Look I know what I'm talking about, do what I tell you,go on,scram

-Miss my concept -Go on.Do what I tell you

Darling.I just heard.It's wonderful

So excited

Oh Jules aren't you happy. Why didn't you tell me yourself

Now we can get married

Married?

What's the matter? I know you think that you precious brother.Why should you?

All he thinks about is money, and your ticket,get it back

You want me to steal the ticket from my brother

No.Not steal it.Why should he have any of the money? It's ours.

Darling just think what we could do with it

Why we could go away together and

Your brother he hates me,he is selfish, all he wants to do is to keep us apart

He doesn't care anything at all about you

forget him

We've been together all our life

He and I

Jules will enjoy hearing all this. Will you tell him or shall I?

Georges,and you let me think

Now I can show him what you really are

Open his eyes

You swine

You won the money don't you,but you won't dare

No you won't get it,

you can tell him all the lies about me, that I'm so,but he won't believe you

Yes he will,and you know it

Of course he will I didn't know he was a fool and a weakling

You are not a man and neither is he

You can have goldboy,in love with you,I hope you didn't have any money

Get out

Penny have you heard

-Jules,Jules -What's the matter

-Horrible -What then? What has happened to you?

Georges he's gone mad.He strikes me, and give me another strike

Georges

He wants to stop you getting married. He wants me to go away with him

when I was engaged with you,the lies about me,

you wouldn't believe him,would you Jules

What have you done to my girl?

So you've seen her

The dirty,no good little cheat

Mr de Lisle you are late,hurry up, you are due on now

We are mad look at your hands

Come on,get up Jules

We are mad

And then he left me

He rushed in and slammed the door as I say it

Go on,go on

There was a terrific press

Then they started fighting

How do you know?

I knew it was Georges and not Jules in the dressing room

when I sent you there

You knew?

Sure.You have to look out something instead of he cut a throat

But why?

They are fighting,they are fighting for tickets,see?

They are not.It's over me

Use your head,babe, it's over the ticket

And don't you forget it, they won't make it up,

do their act together until somebody

comes along and take care of the ticket for them

You know you are quite a clever kid when you don't try

See you later babe

Can I see you one minute,Barney?

What it is?

There is a couple fighting in de Lisle's bedroom,director

de Lisle fighting?

They are lucky to get out of it

Where are they now?

They are on but they are four minutes late

God Heavens

Got one of the hands cut from a smashed mirror

Which one did it?

I couldn't tell you

They are crazy to do it

Might be an idea to take care of that kicked rick up there,boy

Good Heavens

Are you mad?

I don't want to have troubles or accidents in my show

If you go on again like that I will have you turned out of the circus

and I'll see that you never come into this country again

You rehearse a single act,if one of you can't go ,the other does it thorough

What's wrong with you boys?

It's the lottery money,isn't it?

Why don't you get someone to look after the ticket until you have calmed down

I'll keep it for you

Give it to him

Not nice sort of thing happening in the middle of the show

Still will forgive it this time

Safe with me as it was the Bank of England

Boys.Get some fresh air and cool down

Good Night

I got it all worked out boss.Just as you wanted.A swell story

Story? What about?

-About the de Lisle -Not about the fight?

Of course not.About the lottery win,boss.

Lottery?

They way I wrote it out,it is a front page story,the local papers booking it up

We cured out the extras,for a fortnight at least for an easy grip

Yes,but I got an idea about that too

It's wasted saving the kids from the man eating tiger

That way we can build some energy on one of the act

I see.Go on.

And then we build up a big world company where he can pick the works thing

All right.What are you waiting for

There is only one snag I got to have a picture of the winning ticket

I got one of the twins but I got to have one of that

Picture of the winning ticket?

Yes I'll give them a light and make for the paper

No I can't pass you that.Far too valuable

That's true

What can we do?

Wait a minute.I've got an idea

I'll make a copy.We'll draw that in your office

I can't see any harm in that

I can get the size of the wording and do it right now

There you are

Made you the think of looking at it

that it is worth all that dough,would you

It's a finch.It will make a swell three column flash

Let's see.Lotterie Nationale 664449.There.That will do it

It'll be a rush job but I can handle it

It'll catch tomorrow's papers, if I work fast

-Thanks Bob -Maybe you are as smart as I thought

You will be surprised,just wait

I keep telling you she is capered that what she has done

So you don't understand plain English,she is gone

I'm letting her room,they are nice when they are tidy

They get the sun in the morning

It's to her friend that she likes to set hope for what's the outstanding

I beg you pardon

To pay me off what is outstanding

Where she's gone?

That's what I like to know and where is my three week's money

Gone with that tender of hers, I shouldn't wonder

The fancy dark haired one

I don't mind telling you if I don't get satisfaction I'm going to plea

I'm not having people leaving this house without some offer of thank you

Just walking out

Some people might have the decency to pay me off what is outstanding

There is the fare the old world over

How much?

4 £ 10 sh and 1 sh for the gas

Did you see the doctor,Jules?

No.

How is your wrist?

All right

It doesn't matter

Jules I.I'm sorry we quarreled

She's gone away.

With Mike Bergen

Maybe so for the good,Jules

You know how it is with these things

You'll forget it.All right?

You have your work.We got the act

The act too.Don't matter

Nothing matters

After all this,if you agree,

we would like you to free us from the rest of the contract

We've talked it over and decided to go back to France

Perhaps finish with the trapeze

You know,so far as I know

it is not easy to get a top line act in the middle of the season

but this trouble,Jule's hands, I'll get your point

I'll have the contract met

Thank you Mr Barney

We both appreciate everything you have done

The ticket.I nearly forgot

I haven't forgot

Thank you

And we shan't forget you,Mr Barney

-No,no -Good Bye

-Bon jour -Bon jour

The winning ticket.It's us

Voila

20 francs?

Pardon?

You are mistaken,Monsieur, our ticket win a million francs

Monsieur,Loterie Nationale does not make mistakes,this ticket wins 20 francs

Yes.But we won the first price and come from England to collect it

The name is de Lisle.Be so good,please, to look it up again

Eh bien

-du Pruy? -No.de Lisle

Voila,that is correct,de Lisle, he wins the first price

I'll speak to the chef of personnel,moment,Monsieurs

Monsieur,I have spoken to chef of personnel,

the claimed ticket and the official letter of notification

was presented and the money paid

Paid to whom

Whom to Monsieur Jules de Lisle

Jules de Lisle.What are you talking about I'm Jules de Lisle

It's me I'm telling you,I'm Jules de Lisle

Jules

This man was a criminal

But you try my patience, the ticket was correct,

the letter was official, we follow regulations

The Loterie Nationale doesn't deal with criminals

The Loterie Nationale does not make mistakes

Perhaps.Perhaps Barney made a mistake

No.Barney didn't make a mistake.It was Mike Bergen

Yes

Please pardon me while I prepare my lunch

But I don't care for any but my own cooking

The ticket you said was taken from you in France?

We've told you it was stolen in England

That rises a very interesting viewpoint

The ticket was bought in France. Allez s'il vous plait

It was taken to England,stolen there

and presented again at the Bureau National Loterie Bank,you say

Yes.We have told you the whole story

We want to know how we can get our money back

It is a point in Law

In fact ,gentlemen,the legal process of two nations are involved

France and England

In my opinion you shouldn't be advised

to proceed against Monsieur Bergen in the French Court for safe

But it might be possible for you to return to England

and then apply to the English Courts for Mr Bergen's extradition

Georges,we are wasting our time

Please

If Mr Bergen will be convicted for theft in England

And then after he has served his sentence

You could apply for civil proceedings

in the order to recover the proceeds of the sale of the ticket

You could take civil proceedings either in France or England

Such process of course would involve in very heavy expenses

and you may find that Mr Bergen is insolvent

and then for him good money after bad

How much would all this cost?

Who knows? 12-15000 francs

How long? How long will all this take?

Who can say? Six months,one year two years

Don't you understand what this man, thief has done to us?

Yes.Yes.Your money

No not just the money

He tricked us into fighting.

The only person who ever made my brother and me fight

You,scab of points of law

Did you ever nearly killed your brother

I nearly dropped him 40 feet

I'll have a wretch of a woman sent to him by a man

Break the face between us

We must find Mike Bergen

First we must get back to work and get some money

Jules,you do fancy things all right now You did your act very well

He is doing fine.Aren't you Jules?

ça va

You acrobats

Now when I was bitten by Lulu

Who is that? A girlfriend?

That's his lion.She likes him with his fur on

I'm sorry Mr Bergen doesn't live here

Thank you

He is short and dark.Name is Mike Bergen

His name is Bergen

Bergen? Never heard of him

Are you French can see this young lady,his name is you say?

Bergen

-Mike Bergen -Bergen? You cannot describe him?

He is a man, a bit short,dark,he's got more money to throw about than usual

Mon Dieu.Many people will do that

His girlfriend she is English too

She is fair,very beautiful

And one thing,when he smokes,he's got a funny way of smoking,he bites his smoke

He might do though

Yeh

Bite his smoke

Hello Mike Bergen

You haven't forgotten us have you?

Hello Penny,how is it?

Or is it Gloria Gregg now?

If it isn't the famous de Lisle, our friends emerge

We are no friends of yours,Mike Bergen

We are here on business

What can I do for you,boys?

The ticket.The ticket you stole

Stole? That's a harsh word to use to an old friend

We want our money

You thief

No education.No manners

They are bothering you,boss

It's all right.My friends just look confused,that's all

You are pushing us too far,Bergen

You stole that ticket you and that girl of yours

Leave her out of it

And for the ticket and you remember poorly the arrangements

I bet you don't remember I won it from you in a game of poker

You'd better watch out. We'll have the police

Police? What for? You can't prove anything. If you could,you'd done it long ago

Run along like good boys

Here is a couple of hundred francs for you

I'll get you

I'll get you

-Good Night ,boys -You hear what the boss says?

The boss says good night boys,just walk

Would you go to the moor and they hurt you

No,you wouldn't

You'll scratch and bite and

Sixteen minutes

due to indisposition of his brother Monsieur de Lisle will appear this evening

on a trapeze alone,in his great solo act, Ladies and Gentlemen the great de Lisle

Come in

Inspector Breuville,gentlemen

From the prefecture,you are Georges and Jules de Lisle?

Yes

There are one or two questions I should like to ask you

We are prepared to answer any question

I'm very glad you are defending

I want you to spare no expenses,whatever, you must do everything humanely possible

I'll look after the money side, I'll be responsible no matter what it costs

Thank you.We will do our utmost but it is a very difficult case

I know that of course

You see I have two clients, and we have to safeguard both their interest

-The Court -Pardon

Silence please

You persist both of you in saying that you did not commit this crime

Georges de Lisle what do you say?

I know nothing about it. I was performing my act

And you Jules de Lisle?

I was on the trapeze at the time of the murder

I know nothing about it

As principal witness for the defense we call Madame Bergen

Silence

Silence

And the defense must be barmy

Silence please

Madame Bergen

May I offer my regret that after your terrible experience

you should be asked to appear in this court

We offer you our deepest sympathy

Lift up your right hand

You swear to speak without fear or hatred

and to speak the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth

Say I swear

I swear

Madame you were the only witness present in the cafe

who could identify the murderer of your husband

Which of those two men shot your husband?

It was Georges

Point him out

That is Georges

Silence

It was he,who murdered my husband

Are you Georges de Lisle?

Yes

Gentlemen of the jury

None of the prosecution witnesses including the lion tamer and the ringmaster

have been able to identify which of the accused brothers

did the act in the circus on that eventful night

Not one shred of evidence has been brought against either of these men

The examination of fingerprints has failed

to bring about any conclusive evidence

either against Georges or against Jules de Lisle

The car,the patisse bar all the fingerprints of both men

And the gun does not bear fingerprints of either

In the name of the prosecution I protest

Defense Council is out of order. He is making a defense speech now

Monsieur Le President.Surely it is quite clear by now to the Court

that this identification is meaningless

At the time of the murder

the murderer was wearing make up and costume of the de Lisle act

Therefore I demand that both brothers

should appear in court in full make up and costume

So that my witness can then try to identify them

In my view it is quite unnecessary

we can not have the accused parading in fancy dress in this court

These two men stand here to defend their lives

It is your duty to see to it that justice is done

All justice

The court decide to adjourn in order to enable to the accused

to appear in the same costumes and make up

they were wearing on the night of the murder

What is things going like?

We wonder how she choose them apart

I couldn't

Particular hands

The defense must have some plan

and choosing them even more between their identities

Each one says he was on the trapeze

What an alibi

It's a dual alibi

Silence,silence,please, the hearing is reviewed

Bring in the accused

Silence

Madame. You have told the court that Georges de Lisle murdered your husband

Point him out please

That is Georges

That is really Jules de Lisle

I protest

It is Georges

Silence

It is Georges

I confirm the man Madame Bergen pointed out is Jules de Lisle

I was informed by the defense

of the position each brother would take up in the dock

Where are you going to now?

Quiet everybody quiet,I'll give you a statement.What do you want to know

They are going back to circus again?

They are coming back to England with me

A couple at the Billy Barney's circus and you can quote that

Good House? Packer.The de Lisle all right? Just going on

You

He had never been so heavy

I could not hold him much longer

He didn't move

He was dead

You tried to find out which it was

Jules Georges

Georges Jules

You could never tell us apart,Mr Barney

I never could

Which are you?

I am Jules

I never could understand why you should disappear

I thought that I could get away from it all

Can't I help you?

Surely there is something I can do to help you

There is nothing you can do for me

Nothing

Since my brother died

swinging from a rope,like a murderer

Murderer?

I suppose it was fate

Poor George had to pay for his crime

It was a murder he committed

It was me

I killed Mike Bergen

No one can help me now
