00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:16,900
THE LITTLE TEHATER OF JEAN RENOIR

2
00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:24,180
Ladies and gentlemen,
here's my little theatre...

3
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:28,379
on whose stage I'll have
the pleasure to illustrate...

4
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,179
some anecdotes which amused
me and which...

5
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,619
I hope you'll like.

6
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,179
One is a Christmas tale...

7
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,379
which I call
"The Last Christmas Eve"...

8
00:00:39,480 --> 00:00:44,299
dedicated to the memory
of my extraordinary collaborator...

9
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:46,499
who is unaware
of this collaboration...

10
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,019
the great Hans-Christian
Andersen.

11
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:52,739
One should choose one's masters
only among the greatest.

12
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:55,180
The players in it are...

13
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,340
This is my territory...!

14
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,740
He wants to steal my place.

15
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:30,939
Since the war...

16
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,340
...there's no morality, anymore.

17
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,139
I'm drunk...

18
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:43,980
All Christmas you drink
and look for girls...

19
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,220
You follow tradition or you don't.

20
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:50,659
I'm freezing!

21
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,859
At Christmas you freeze
and in August you sweat...

22
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:57,060
Let's go in before
I catch pneumonia!

23
00:01:58,400 --> 00:01:59,979
I'm starving!

24
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,419
Let me first contemplate
the perfectly conventional decor...

25
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:04,579
of this restaurant...

26
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,220
I adore the conventional!

27
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,260
Christmas is our civilization's
most successful clich�...

28
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,780
And that's its charm.

29
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,620
The world's made up of contrasts...

30
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,060
or it was, before "progress"
levelled everything...

31
00:02:39,640 --> 00:02:42,499
Soon there'll be no cold nor warm...

32
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:47,380
nor rich nor poor, it'll all
be the same... a real drag!

33
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:52,019
Because the very idea
of equality is a drag.

34
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:53,739
I've a toothache...

35
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,180
Try a scotch with Cayenne pepper...
it's infallible.

36
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,979
Caviar in a large salad bowl
with big spoons...

37
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:02,979
so it'll look impressive...

38
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:06,820
And for me, salami and red wine.

39
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:08,819
Mouton-Rothschild?

40
00:03:08,920 --> 00:03:10,700
<i>No, vin ordinaire</i>

41
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,180
Isn't it marvelous?

42
00:03:14,640 --> 00:03:15,780
That bum...

43
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,460
I've an idea...

44
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,539
What can he be telling him?

45
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,019
He's telling him
about the healthfulness...

46
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:40,859
of out-door life, naturally!

47
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:42,980
Oh, my tooth!

48
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:49,220
My Christmas is always a bust...
my boyfriend dines with his wife.

49
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:51,460
He's giving him money.

50
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:52,779
He's nuts!

51
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:54,740
But he's backing my film!

52
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,260
You better watch him.

53
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,700
The old fellow can't believe it...

54
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,059
Gontran always exaggerates.

55
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,099
Always showing off.

56
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,220
He can afford it.

57
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,020
And he wouldn't pay my rent!

58
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,060
How's that for expressing hunger?

59
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,379
I paid him to look through
the window...

60
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:29,659
and watch us eat

61
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:32,819
so your pleasure will
be enhanced

62
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,780
by being stared
at by someone who's starving.

63
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:47,700
Oh, my tooth!

64
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:51,580
It's a wisdom tooth.

65
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:14,780
Aren't the shortest jokes the best,
old boy?

66
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:19,619
I'm delighted...
it's a Shakespearean situation.

67
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:23,060
I agree, it's absolutely
Shakespearean.

68
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,780
A wisdom tooth's no joke!

69
00:05:38,840 --> 00:05:40,259
Not eating?

70
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,259
No, I'm not hungry.

71
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:46,099
I've had enough, I'm going...
you're disgusting.

72
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,660
I don't want ever to see you again.

73
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,340
I'm going too.

74
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:55,420
Really!

75
00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:59,779
They just didn't understand!

76
00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:01,419
The turkey now?

77
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:02,979
I loathe turker!

78
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:06,060
The service was unsatisfactory,
Mr. Gontran?

79
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,139
We must get rid of that bum!

80
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:24,299
We could give him the left-overs...

81
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,420
Very good idea!

82
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,420
Say, old boy,
how about a little supper?

83
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:45,579
Yes, caviar, foie gras, turkey,
a nice bottle of champagne...

84
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:46,739
Or two...

85
00:06:46,840 --> 00:06:50,900
It depends... I'm very particular
about champagne...

86
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,380
..I like it dry...

87
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:58,739
Note that I didn't ask for it... still,
it must be the best.

88
00:06:58,840 --> 00:07:00,539
He's priceless!

89
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:02,139
You'll be satisfied.

90
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,579
Good, because otherwise
I'll complain...

91
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:07,139
You seem very intelligent...

92
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:11,940
No, I'm a real idiot,
but life teaches you things...

93
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,059
I'll find a bench...

94
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:15,700
...nearby...

95
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,739
We're fixing you a real banquet.

96
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,019
And leave that windows...
you're annoying people...

97
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:25,539
I was paid to stay.

98
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,539
They've left, already.

99
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:29,500
Oh, in that case...!

100
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,300
Well, my friend...

101
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,499
And don't call me your friend!

102
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,939
Very right and proper, Captain.

103
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:42,579
...and don't forget...

104
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,940
...the silver, eh?
I hate eating with my fingers.

105
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,499
None of that Henry V stuff, eh?

106
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:50,779
VIII...

107
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:52,900
Henry VIII, of course...

108
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,060
Utensils for two, please...

109
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,859
Yes, a conquest...

110
00:07:57,960 --> 00:07:59,859
Young? Pretty?

111
00:07:59,960 --> 00:08:03,420
Young... pretty...
the prettiest in town...

112
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:08,740
We'll bring it right away...
meanwhile, please...

113
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,180
...move away a bit.

114
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,020
Isn't he handsome!

115
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,659
Must be his makeup.
he's too perfect...

116
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:25,619
What a makeup!

117
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:27,740
I'll invite him to supper...

118
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,460
To be hugged by that wreck must
be something...

119
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:35,260
Anyway, I'll give him my cape.

120
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,980
<i>"Clothe him who is naked..."</i>

121
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,659
Now to put the feedbag on, eh?

122
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:49,659
Let's say, some supper.

123
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,859
With pleasure not to see you again...

124
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,420
The pleasure will be mine.

125
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,139
Well, my good fellow...

126
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:07,780
how goes it?

127
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,379
How nice to meet one who looks...

128
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:11,939
as happy as you.

129
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,020
Anything you'd like?

130
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:15,779
Make a wish...

131
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,139
I'd like to play Santa Claus...

132
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,260
this Christmas Eve.

133
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,380
Make it quick, I'm freezing!

134
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:27,740
It's my heaven-sent chance
to do a good deed...

135
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:31,619
Tell me, what would you like most?

136
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,179
Help me carry my packages.

137
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,020
Some kidder, eh?

138
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,019
I was worried
you wouldn't return...

139
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,179
How could you think such a thing!

140
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:37,059
I've no life without you...

141
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,460
And without you I'm bored.

142
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:45,739
My, that's serious!

143
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:47,379
Very serious!

144
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:52,460
Cold, hunger... one
can manage those... but boredom!

145
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,340
I'm so weak...

146
00:11:56,680 --> 00:12:00,860
I feel my legs won't support
me anymore...

147
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,819
I couldn't die without you!

148
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:11,859
Nor could I...!

149
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:13,179
We'll never part...

150
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:14,419
Never...

151
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,179
Day and night...

152
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,579
we'll hold each other's hand...

153
00:12:18,680 --> 00:12:21,260
Even for a treasure,
like a whole cigarette...

154
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:23,099
a glass of wine...

155
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,500
or a piece of sausage...

156
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:30,500
we'll never leave each other.

157
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,979
If you were run over...
away from me...

158
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:37,699
they'd bury you...

159
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:41,620
but what would I do all alone?

160
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:43,019
And I...?

161
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,020
You'll always hold my hand?

162
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,820
And we'll die together?

163
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,060
What's that?

164
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:52,299
A cape.

165
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,339
You met Santa Claus?

166
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,460
A bushel of Santa Clauses!

167
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,819
That explains your overcoat...

168
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,700
And the cape and this supper...

169
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:14,300
Champagne, caviar, foie gras!

170
00:13:14,560 --> 00:13:16,900
A supper worthy of you.

171
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:47,419
Darling...

172
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:49,820
I left your hand...

173
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,979
It's the cape's fault...

174
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,260
it made me forget my vow...

175
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,540
Give me your hand...

176
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,140
What a beautiful night!

177
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:11,279
The clouds are dissolving to reveal
the stars, and how they glitter...!

178
00:14:11,380 --> 00:14:14,819
It's to celebrate
the birth of a child...

179
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:16,539
and our young love

180
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,820
I remember Christmas
in our chateau...

181
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,219
We were alone...

182
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,980
except for the servants...

183
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,539
What perfect servants they were...

184
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:29,539
of the old school...

185
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:34,260
they knew how to be devoted
without becoming familiar...

186
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,179
I had called for musicians...

187
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,259
for just us two...

188
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,899
The salon was lit, and we danced...

189
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:46,940
just us two, us two alone...
it was divine...

190
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,500
Yes, it was divine...

191
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:58,700
This game is hideous!
Let's stop this delirium...!

192
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:02,899
The splendor of an imaginary past
doesn't lessen our present misery!

193
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,020
We had no chateau...

194
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:06,899
no servants...

195
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:08,139
We did...

196
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:10,260
I never saw a mink close before.

197
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:12,179
You've forgotten...

198
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:15,540
We're poor, poorer than
the poorest...

199
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,539
and we always were.

200
00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:20,620
We're rich in memories...

201
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,340
Made-up memories.

202
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,100
They're the best kind.

203
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,140
My darling.

204
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,540
Oh, my darling!

205
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,099
We're too old for that...

206
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:46,460
No...

207
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:58,740
Now we'll rest
on our big canopied bed...

208
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:02,060
in our chateau.

209
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:55,820
We haven't had our supper.

210
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:59,740
I'll be for the poor.

211
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,020
Hey, look... they swiped our spot!

212
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,340
The skunks!

213
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,300
They're sound asleep.

214
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:29,659
They're dead...

215
00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:31,460
Let's have some grub.

216
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:38,940
What I don't get
is that they look happy...

217
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,500
How can ou be happy
when you freeze to death?

218
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,379
We continue with
"THE ELECTRIC WAXER"...

219
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:54,899
This one's an opera...

220
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,419
well, at least there are songs...

221
00:18:57,520 --> 00:18:59,579
choruses commenting
on the action, etc...

222
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,819
It's also very tropical...

223
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:03,940
being about man vs. the machine.

224
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:08,580
The struggle is acted out by...

225
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:21,979
<i>Subway... office...</i>

226
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,100
<i>Office... subway...</i>

227
00:19:28,360 --> 00:19:30,780
<i>Credit accounts...</i>

228
00:19:32,120 --> 00:19:34,700
<i>Duplicators...</i>

229
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,179
<i>Manipulators...</i>

230
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,300
<i>Contracts... projects...</i>

231
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:46,900
<i>Subway... office...</i>

232
00:19:47,360 --> 00:19:50,100
<i>Office... subway...</i>

233
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,780
<i>Perfect nylons, subtle makeup...</i>

234
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,700
<i>Youth is passing...</i>

235
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,820
<i>Life is slowing...</i>

236
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,820
<i>Who'll give me back
the sweet days...</i>

237
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,900
<i>Of my first misconducts...</i>

238
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:28,500
<i>The kisses
in the corner of a doorway...</i>

239
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,860
<i>The illusory promises...</i>

240
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,740
<i>The slaps of my poor father...</i>

241
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:44,620
<i>The yells of my mother...</i>

242
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,420
<i>Subway... office... Office... subway...</i>

243
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:39,340
Emilie!

244
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:48,459
My floor!

245
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:51,459
I've been promoted to 2nd Clerk!

246
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:53,540
Look what you did!

247
00:24:55,120 --> 00:24:57,859
Just think...! I'm 2nd Clerk!

248
00:24:57,960 --> 00:24:59,980
The scuffs, if you please!

249
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,939
Now listen, this is important...

250
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,539
The First Clerk, Dufourneau,
is retiring...

251
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,819
about time, too... after 52 years...

252
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,899
and the 2nd Clerk,
Lamorille, replaces him.

253
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:15,540
And I replace the 2nd Clerk!

254
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:21,939
The office
is giving me a party tonight...

255
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,420
and you're invited, naturally.

256
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:28,299
Get dressed,
the maid will do your floor.

257
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,860
Leave my floor to a maid?!

258
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,300
I'd rather die!

259
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:38,339
Don't exaggerate...

260
00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:40,460
You don't understand...

261
00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:44,139
a gleaming floor
e a household's glory...

262
00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:46,260
by which you're judged...

263
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:52,219
A well waxed floor is,
for a proper wife...

264
00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:57,180
what pearls, a mink coat,
or a Rolls-Royce are for a whore.

265
00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,500
Have it varnished.

266
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:00,740
Never!

267
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:03,860
A varnished floor is vulgar.

268
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,940
I want an electric waxer.

269
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:11,699
Yes, electric.

270
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,939
Look, I work all day
in a noisy office...

271
00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:18,779
The clack of the "noiseless"
typewriters unnerves me...

272
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:20,900
A waxer isn't very noisy.

273
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,939
We have a vacuum cleaner,
washing machine...

274
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:29,139
mixer, dryer, air-conditioner...
it's enough.

275
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,139
Now let's be serious.

276
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,539
I've been made 2nd Clerk...

277
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:37,460
and to be 2nd Clerk at 35, well,
it's pretty nice.

278
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,620
You ought to hug me,
congratulate.

279
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,979
You'll get a raise?

280
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:47,419
Of course...

281
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:51,860
Then you'll buy
me my electric waxer?

282
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,220
You know the annual insanity rate?

283
00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,140
127,682...

284
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:04,100
And the percentage
of noise-induced cases?

285
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,420
27,5%...

286
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:11,340
I should...

287
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:14,500
Try it!

288
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,139
You will buy it for me, won't you?

289
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:23,859
She'll drive me nuts!

290
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,939
On the guillotine,
she's demand her waxer!

291
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,060
Quick, dress, or we'll be late.

292
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:33,019
For my party,
celebrating my promotion!

293
00:27:33,120 --> 00:27:36,100
I'm going back to my mother.

294
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,140
Good riddance. I'm taking a bath.

295
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:41,579
The towels are mine!

296
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:43,700
They're mine!

297
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:48,899
No, they're mine!

298
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,020
The towels are mine!

299
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:11,500
<i>At last there's something going on...</i>

300
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:24,940
<i>In our neighborhood...</i>

301
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:31,980
<i>Let's thank
our considerate neighbors...</i>

302
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,460
<i>For this entertainment...</i>

303
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:41,620
<i>For this free show.</i>

304
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,420
<i>Nothing is more exciting...</i>

305
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:48,020
<i>Than other people's troubles</i>

306
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:54,340
<i>They make life bearable</i>

307
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,620
<i>It's better than the movies</i>

308
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,620
<i>Other people's troubles...</i>

309
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:10,020
<i>The troubles of others</i>

310
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,700
<i>And our blessed bread.</i>

311
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:06,100
<i>I left my innocence heart</i>

312
00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:08,220
<i>In the fog</i>

313
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,620
<i>My heart sick with bitterness.</i>

314
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:14,979
<i>My bruised heart</i>

315
00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:17,380
<i>My child's heart</i>

316
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:27,180
What comes after "My child's
heart" in Noel Fox's song?

317
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:24,979
My crumb-tray...

318
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:28,699
You don't think I'll leave
my grandfather's crumb-tray.

319
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:33,780
He was a gentleman, who wouldn't
have refused me an electric waxer.

320
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:41,380
Emilie, your obstinacy is delicious.
You'll get your waxer.

321
00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:58,660
The end of that song, I found it.

322
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:20,379
Company?

323
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:23,819
Maybe it's a telegram
of congratulations,

324
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,700
or our escort to the party.

325
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:33,300
Where is Madame?

326
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,259
The walls of the chateau of Loches

327
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:42,939
smothered the protests
of Cardinal de la Balue

328
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:44,979
imprisoned by Louis XI.

329
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,100
Those times are over.

330
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:50,259
If the think walls of modern houses

331
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:53,219
don't make
for intimacy between neighbors

332
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:56,219
they at least reveal their
little habits.

333
00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:58,900
I represent
the Magnetotum Waxer.

334
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,539
I'm also your next door neighbor.

335
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,979
For instance,
I know your favorite records

336
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:10,459
I share your taste for Noel Fox

337
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:12,860
I know all your habits

338
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:16,900
You take many baths,
very right and proper.

339
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:22,339
I'm also a witness, unintentional,

340
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,659
I don't listen behind walls

341
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:26,780
to your little quarrels.

342
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,299
The one about the electric waxer

343
00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:34,619
touched me particularly

344
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:38,060
which explains
my sudden appearance here.

345
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,539
Excuse me, I was taking a bath.

346
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:43,579
I must dress.

347
00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:46,060
I was just promoted,
friends are waiting.

348
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:47,580
Congratulations!

349
00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:50,179
May I touch it?

350
00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:52,219
Even better, try it.

351
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,300
First we must clean up this dirt.

352
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,300
<i>Here is the contact switch</i>

353
00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:11,100
<i>Before you plug the machine in</i>

354
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:20,700
<i>be sure it is...</i>

355
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:24,020
<i>set for "Off"</i>

356
00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,420
<i>"Off" means closed</i>

357
00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:36,740
<i>"On" means open</i>

358
00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:43,780
<i>I see a little "Off" and a little "On"</i>

359
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:47,740
<i>Wonderful, wonderful!</i>

360
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:54,020
<i>I'm set for "Off"...</i>

361
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:56,980
<i>I plug it in...</i>

362
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:01,700
<i>I take a little wax...</i>

363
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,180
<i>not too much...</i>

364
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:10,500
<i>too much wax cakes up...</i>

365
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:14,540
<i>disgracefully</i>

366
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,620
<i>You must use it</i>

367
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:27,980
<i>de-li-cate-ly...</i>

368
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:40,660
<i>Try it.</i>

369
00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:44,780
<i>Wait, I want my husband to see.</i>

370
00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:50,420
<i>I'm going to use the waxer</i>

371
00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:55,379
<i>See?
Your floor's already different</i>

372
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,379
<i>Like day and night!</i>

373
00:35:57,480 --> 00:35:59,500
<i>I admit that</i>

374
00:36:00,720 --> 00:36:03,460
Gustave, darling, kiss me.

375
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:08,260
Gustave, answer me!

376
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:27,660
<i>Let us bow our heads before
these mortal remains</i>

377
00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:34,860
<i>Let us praise</i>

378
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:38,020
<i>This model citizen.</i>

379
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,340
<i>Let us pray that in Eternity</i>

380
00:36:48,720 --> 00:36:51,420
<i>He'll receive his just reward.</i>

381
00:36:59,720 --> 00:37:03,540
<i>Let's congratulate
this model husband</i>

382
00:37:04,240 --> 00:37:08,500
<i>For taking out
a good insurance policy</i>

383
00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:14,339
<i>His wife's position will now be</i>

384
00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:17,020
<i>very comfortable.</i>

385
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:31,020
<i>God bless him</i>

386
00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:36,580
<i>Goodbye office</i>

387
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:42,580
<i>Goodbye subway</i>

388
00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:59,100
TO GUSTAVE MICHONNET,
HERO OF HOUSEHOLD PROGRESS

389
00:38:34,720 --> 00:38:38,340
<i>Gustave, Gustave,
I'll mourn you all my life</i>

390
00:38:40,240 --> 00:38:42,660
<i>Until my very end!</i>

391
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:49,140
<i>These people are messing up
my floor</i>

392
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:52,660
<i>I can't very well ask them to</i>

393
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:57,420
<i>wipe their feet on the doormat</i>

394
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:01,940
<i>When one is in deep mourning</i>

395
00:39:02,720 --> 00:39:05,100
<i>It's just not done.</i>

396
00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:25,020
<i>Gustave, how will I live without you?</i>

397
00:40:00,460 --> 00:40:02,519
Don't you recognize me?

398
00:40:02,620 --> 00:40:06,560
I'm Jules, Jules Perdreau,
your childhood sweetheart!

399
00:40:08,540 --> 00:40:11,880
I heard about
your husband's passing.

400
00:40:16,620 --> 00:40:19,680
I used to have a mustache.

401
00:40:20,020 --> 00:40:21,960
It's the mustache!

402
00:40:25,380 --> 00:40:28,000
I came to comfort you.

403
00:40:40,660 --> 00:40:43,760
The Chinese eat it with chopsticks.

404
00:40:47,060 --> 00:40:52,000
If you were Chinese, what would
you eat with chopsticks?

405
00:40:55,580 --> 00:40:57,120
Rice?

406
00:41:00,260 --> 00:41:02,920
Rice! Thanks.

407
00:41:57,220 --> 00:41:59,759
Emilie, you forgot our agreement.

408
00:41:59,860 --> 00:42:01,880
No waxing when I'm home.

409
00:42:03,140 --> 00:42:05,080
There's a spot.

410
00:42:05,860 --> 00:42:08,560
Wax it when I'm away.

411
00:42:08,860 --> 00:42:12,959
Let me have just 5 minutes
of waxing.

412
00:42:13,060 --> 00:42:14,959
<i>5 minutes.</i>

413
00:42:15,060 --> 00:42:17,080
<i>5 little minutes</i>

414
00:42:28,860 --> 00:42:32,240
How do you like that? I tamed her.

415
00:43:19,420 --> 00:43:21,159
My dear Emilie,

416
00:43:21,260 --> 00:43:24,519
I work all week in an office.

417
00:43:24,620 --> 00:43:28,360
Where six perfumed blondes,
very agreeable,

418
00:43:28,860 --> 00:43:32,999
deafen me with the clacking
of their little typewriters,

419
00:43:33,100 --> 00:43:35,080
the so-called "noiseless" type.

420
00:43:35,260 --> 00:43:37,479
So when I'm home,

421
00:43:37,580 --> 00:43:41,320
I want deliverance
from all mechanical noises.

422
00:43:41,700 --> 00:43:42,840
Understand?

423
00:43:46,100 --> 00:43:48,400
Did you understand?

424
00:43:50,820 --> 00:43:52,800
She understood!

425
00:44:31,300 --> 00:44:34,440
I'm going back to my mother.

426
00:45:17,940 --> 00:45:20,280
<i>Oh waxer dear</i>

427
00:45:22,100 --> 00:45:24,679
<i>Let me hug you tight</i>

428
00:45:24,780 --> 00:45:27,400
<i>What exquisite intoxication!</i>

429
00:45:28,260 --> 00:45:30,600
<i>What grand excitation!</i>

430
00:45:34,980 --> 00:45:37,519
<i>I'm becoming all aflutter</i>

431
00:45:37,620 --> 00:45:39,640
<i>It's coming</i>

432
00:45:40,380 --> 00:45:43,159
<i>I feel it in my skin</i>

433
00:45:43,260 --> 00:45:45,879
<i>I feel it in my breasts</i>

434
00:45:45,980 --> 00:45:49,240
<i>I'm going to burst into blossom</i>

435
00:45:51,060 --> 00:45:54,280
<i>It's no longer a phantasm</i>

436
00:45:55,540 --> 00:45:58,680
<i>It's him, at last... at last!</i>

437
00:46:57,620 --> 00:46:59,240
Murderer!

438
00:47:16,660 --> 00:47:19,319
<i>To assault a human being</i>

439
00:47:19,420 --> 00:47:21,440
<i>Is blameable</i>

440
00:47:23,220 --> 00:47:25,839
<i>But to assault a machine</i>

441
00:47:25,940 --> 00:47:27,960
<i>Is abominable!</i>

442
00:47:34,100 --> 00:47:36,120
<i>Human beings</i>

443
00:47:38,020 --> 00:47:39,679
<i>multiply</i>

444
00:47:39,780 --> 00:47:42,880
<i>and, anyway, they're too many.</i>

445
00:47:43,820 --> 00:47:45,880
<i>Over-population</i>

446
00:47:47,060 --> 00:47:50,160
<i>is today's great problem.</i>

447
00:48:07,100 --> 00:48:08,760
You!

448
00:48:11,540 --> 00:48:13,120
And you!

449
00:48:15,300 --> 00:48:17,520
You asked for it.

450
00:48:33,300 --> 00:48:36,000
Go see, I can't.

451
00:48:54,580 --> 00:48:56,880
<i>Emilie's sacrifice</i>

452
00:49:01,620 --> 00:49:04,360
<i>Her halo of glory</i>

453
00:49:11,420 --> 00:49:14,160
<i>And Jule's infamous sacrilege</i>

454
00:49:20,980 --> 00:49:23,560
<i>Will live in history.</i>

455
00:49:25,900 --> 00:49:28,639
<i>Dead machines do not revive</i>

456
00:49:28,740 --> 00:49:30,760
<i>Irremediable is their remise.</i>

457
00:49:31,020 --> 00:49:34,320
<i>Men are born and they grow</i>

458
00:49:35,780 --> 00:49:38,159
<i>They grow like mushrooms</i>

459
00:49:38,260 --> 00:49:40,640
<i>It's necessary to stop them.</i>

460
00:49:40,860 --> 00:49:43,320
<i>The pill isn't enough</i>

461
00:49:44,060 --> 00:49:46,440
<i>Men grow and grow</i>

462
00:49:50,820 --> 00:49:53,960
<i>Machines die and don't revive.</i>

463
00:50:10,620 --> 00:50:13,319
I'll always love you, I promise

464
00:50:13,420 --> 00:50:15,720
My darling, my love

465
00:50:18,740 --> 00:50:21,440
And we'll have lots of children!

466
00:50:26,820 --> 00:50:29,599
I invite you now to join me

467
00:50:29,700 --> 00:50:33,159
in a brief invocation of the period
known as "La Belle Epoque".

468
00:50:33,260 --> 00:50:35,159
But I don't delude myself

469
00:50:35,260 --> 00:50:37,960
that it was all that gay.

470
00:50:38,260 --> 00:50:41,119
It had its injustices,
its cruelties

471
00:50:41,220 --> 00:50:42,760
but I like it.

472
00:50:46,300 --> 00:50:50,840
For this short interlude
Jeanne Moreau

473
00:50:52,620 --> 00:50:56,240
agreed to lend us
her beauty and her talent.

474
00:53:54,220 --> 00:53:56,839
And now for "The King of Yvelot",

475
00:53:56,940 --> 00:53:59,799
which is the little
of a song by Beranger,

476
00:53:59,900 --> 00:54:02,399
a popular old song which

477
00:54:02,500 --> 00:54:05,759
the hero
of my story liked to hum

478
00:54:05,860 --> 00:54:07,759
hence the title.

479
00:54:07,860 --> 00:54:10,719
This anecdote
is a tribute to a virtue

480
00:54:10,820 --> 00:54:13,719
which has all but disappeared,
alas

481
00:54:13,820 --> 00:54:15,719
the virtue of "tolerance".

482
00:54:15,820 --> 00:54:20,439
It is also a tribute to that
increasingly popular French game

483
00:54:20,540 --> 00:54:22,439
of bowls.

484
00:54:22,540 --> 00:54:24,560
It is played by...

485
00:54:31,620 --> 00:54:35,519
Now I'll throw
the first bowl to open the game.

486
00:54:35,620 --> 00:54:38,479
As you see, it's a small one.

487
00:54:38,580 --> 00:54:41,239
but then, my theatre is small too.

488
00:54:41,340 --> 00:54:43,360
Curtain up and the game starts.

489
00:54:47,220 --> 00:54:49,120
Too far.

490
00:55:01,580 --> 00:55:03,480
A yard off.

491
00:55:03,940 --> 00:55:06,040
I'll knock it away.

492
00:55:17,380 --> 00:55:19,359
How's that, eh?

493
00:55:19,460 --> 00:55:21,480
Duvallier, you're a cuckold.

494
00:55:21,900 --> 00:55:24,519
I've never seen such luck!

495
00:55:24,620 --> 00:55:26,519
Not luck... skill.

496
00:55:26,620 --> 00:55:29,600
Luck or skill, let's have a drink.

497
00:55:31,660 --> 00:55:33,679
What'll you have?

498
00:55:33,780 --> 00:55:35,679
Thanks, I'm going home.

499
00:55:35,780 --> 00:55:37,519
I don't blame you.

500
00:55:37,620 --> 00:55:40,479
So would I,
to one like Mme. Duvallier.

501
00:55:40,580 --> 00:55:42,879
You don't deserve such happiness.

502
00:55:42,980 --> 00:55:45,079
That's why you call me a cuckold?

503
00:55:45,180 --> 00:55:47,200
Heavens!
Mme. Duvallier's an angel!

504
00:55:47,340 --> 00:55:48,920
A fallen angel.

505
00:55:50,220 --> 00:55:52,159
Satan, too, was an angel.

506
00:55:52,260 --> 00:55:54,479
Always joking, eh? Always jolly.

507
00:55:54,580 --> 00:55:56,479
I know what I know,

508
00:55:56,580 --> 00:56:00,039
and I don't trust
your godless ideas of beauty.

509
00:56:00,140 --> 00:56:01,679
It's a devil's trap.

510
00:56:01,780 --> 00:56:04,279
Are you referring to my wife?

511
00:56:04,380 --> 00:56:06,279
Her and others.

512
00:56:06,380 --> 00:56:07,719
Where are you going?

513
00:56:07,820 --> 00:56:09,159
To pray.

514
00:56:09,260 --> 00:56:11,280
For forgiveness?

515
00:56:11,460 --> 00:56:13,519
Who laughs last, laughs best.

516
00:56:13,620 --> 00:56:15,319
You've a mirror home?

517
00:56:15,420 --> 00:56:17,359
Where there's a woman,

518
00:56:17,460 --> 00:56:19,480
there's always a mirror.

519
00:56:20,900 --> 00:56:24,559
Approach your wife
at a mirror and

520
00:56:24,660 --> 00:56:26,559
stand beside her,

521
00:56:26,660 --> 00:56:28,200
and look.

522
00:56:28,420 --> 00:56:29,999
At what?

523
00:56:30,100 --> 00:56:32,120
You and her.

524
00:56:35,860 --> 00:56:39,120
Joly, you're a mean man.

525
00:56:45,820 --> 00:56:50,039
You're like the girl in the tale who,
whenever she opened her mouth

526
00:56:50,140 --> 00:56:52,079
toads sprang out.

527
00:56:52,180 --> 00:56:53,719
I'll play you 10 points.

528
00:56:53,820 --> 00:56:57,640
I play bowls? That's for loafers!

529
00:56:59,340 --> 00:57:02,280
I'll be late because
of your nonsense!

530
00:57:06,780 --> 00:57:09,120
Hello, Mr. Duvallier.

531
00:57:28,860 --> 00:57:32,279
Yes, I know, your land,
don't sell it, don't...

532
00:57:32,380 --> 00:57:33,719
It's worth a lot.

533
00:57:33,820 --> 00:57:35,239
Who said so?

534
00:57:35,340 --> 00:57:37,279
Mr. Joly.

535
00:57:37,380 --> 00:57:40,160
These days, money is paper.

536
00:57:41,020 --> 00:57:43,320
Land is always land.

537
00:58:19,500 --> 00:58:21,880
Why won't you marry me?

538
00:58:23,060 --> 00:58:25,439
Why let me kiss you then?

539
00:58:25,540 --> 00:58:27,560
Because I like it.

540
00:58:28,820 --> 00:58:30,959
Then let's get married.

541
00:58:31,060 --> 00:58:32,519
Marry him.

542
00:58:32,620 --> 00:58:36,280
With his father's butcher shop,
he'll be a Croesus!

543
00:58:38,420 --> 00:58:40,160
My steak!

544
00:58:42,420 --> 00:58:44,720
Paulette, come here.

545
00:58:45,900 --> 00:58:48,120
Why don't you marry him?

546
00:58:50,020 --> 00:58:51,760
There's someone else?

547
00:58:54,060 --> 00:58:57,560
You've been so kind,
and Madame, too.

548
00:58:59,580 --> 00:59:01,960
I don't always want to be a maid.

549
00:59:04,180 --> 00:59:08,239
I want to be a hetaera,
like Camille, or Messalina.

550
00:59:08,340 --> 00:59:09,799
Beautiful!

551
00:59:09,900 --> 00:59:14,200
I'd live grandly and my lovers
would commit suicide for me.

552
00:59:15,260 --> 00:59:19,600
Before you go into mourning,
see to the ravioli.

553
00:59:21,340 --> 00:59:22,399
Where's Madame?

554
00:59:22,500 --> 00:59:25,479
Resting.
She said she had a headache.

555
00:59:25,580 --> 00:59:27,959
It's the weather,
a storm's brewing.

556
00:59:28,060 --> 00:59:29,999
Storms give headaches?

557
00:59:30,100 --> 00:59:31,239
They say,

558
00:59:31,340 --> 00:59:32,679
not me.

559
00:59:32,780 --> 00:59:36,240
Wait till you're a great
courtesan and you'll see.

560
00:59:40,180 --> 00:59:43,839
The kitchen faucet drips ever
since it was fixed.

561
00:59:43,940 --> 00:59:45,479
We'll get a new plumber.

562
00:59:45,580 --> 00:59:48,560
Good, the old one kissed badly.

563
01:00:14,740 --> 01:00:16,480
Not well?

564
01:00:22,300 --> 01:00:25,519
Just nerves, all women have it.

565
01:00:25,620 --> 01:00:27,440
They shouldn't.

566
01:00:28,140 --> 01:00:30,399
That's the way we are.

567
01:00:30,500 --> 01:00:32,520
"The way we are!"

568
01:00:33,140 --> 01:00:35,639
I hate ready-made ideas.

569
01:00:35,740 --> 01:00:37,760
I'm really just nervous.

570
01:00:38,500 --> 01:00:42,679
I've a nervous wife and a maid
who thinks she's Messalina.

571
01:00:42,780 --> 01:00:45,840
One day I'll wake thinking
I'm Napoleon.

572
01:00:46,380 --> 01:00:48,040
Nervous?

573
01:00:49,500 --> 01:00:52,400
I don't know, little things.

574
01:00:55,580 --> 01:00:57,719
A tickling under my skin,

575
01:00:57,820 --> 01:01:01,279
a feeling like wanting to run,
to yell...

576
01:01:01,380 --> 01:01:05,400
to roll on the ground on the
village square.

577
01:01:06,260 --> 01:01:09,120
That would please Mr. Joly.

578
01:01:11,380 --> 01:01:13,640
You don't believe me?

579
01:01:14,540 --> 01:01:18,640
Oh, it's quite obvious you're
nervous alright.

580
01:01:19,260 --> 01:01:22,560
I'm upsetting you,
I've really a nasty character.

581
01:01:24,340 --> 01:01:27,519
You're the most exquisite of wives,

582
01:01:27,620 --> 01:01:30,240
and I, I'm a big egoist.

583
01:01:31,660 --> 01:01:35,519
A moment ago, playing bowls,
I thought of you,

584
01:01:35,620 --> 01:01:38,079
though I needn't play bowls
for that.

585
01:01:38,180 --> 01:01:40,479
And in your absence I fret.

586
01:01:40,580 --> 01:01:42,799
I've a remedy to propose,

587
01:01:42,900 --> 01:01:47,040
which will chase away,
once and for all, your nervousness.

588
01:01:47,260 --> 01:01:48,999
Veronal?

589
01:01:49,100 --> 01:01:51,120
No, no drugs.

590
01:01:51,340 --> 01:01:54,359
We must get at the root.

591
01:01:54,460 --> 01:01:57,160
And you know the root?

592
01:01:59,620 --> 01:02:01,560
I think so.

593
01:02:03,180 --> 01:02:06,160
I'm old and you're young.

594
01:02:07,020 --> 01:02:09,960
Isabelle, we should separate.

595
01:02:10,860 --> 01:02:13,239
You're just saying anything.

596
01:02:13,340 --> 01:02:14,679
I've much more.

597
01:02:14,780 --> 01:02:18,640
I've a big bear who needs
looking after.

598
01:02:19,020 --> 01:02:22,560
Without you I couldn't live.

599
01:02:22,780 --> 01:02:24,519
Linda swallowed a bone!

600
01:02:24,620 --> 01:02:26,440
She can't breathe!

601
01:02:29,780 --> 01:02:31,639
Do something!

602
01:02:31,740 --> 01:02:33,279
Do what?

603
01:02:33,380 --> 01:02:36,800
If anything happened to her I'd... I'd

604
01:02:50,020 --> 01:02:51,840
Hello, Dr. Feraud?

605
01:03:10,380 --> 01:03:12,479
Hurry, doctor... she'll die!

606
01:03:12,580 --> 01:03:14,119
That's the patient?

607
01:03:14,220 --> 01:03:15,960
She swallowed a bone.

608
01:03:17,700 --> 01:03:20,360
And my wife's got a case of nerves.

609
01:03:25,180 --> 01:03:27,519
I need a table.

610
01:03:27,620 --> 01:03:29,079
The kitchen table.

611
01:03:29,180 --> 01:03:31,959
Take her, I can't watch it.

612
01:03:32,060 --> 01:03:34,840
You won't hurt her, doctor?

613
01:03:46,620 --> 01:03:48,879
Hold her hind legs, please,

614
01:03:48,980 --> 01:03:51,400
and you her fore-legs.

615
01:03:57,340 --> 01:04:00,280
Will you put her to sleep?

616
01:04:09,460 --> 01:04:11,560
There you are.

617
01:04:20,540 --> 01:04:23,640
Don't be bashful, kiss my wife.

618
01:04:34,820 --> 01:04:37,280
I've never eaten, I mean...

619
01:04:37,580 --> 01:04:41,040
I've never eaten such
an excellent p�t�.

620
01:04:41,420 --> 01:04:43,559
It's really very good.

621
01:04:43,660 --> 01:04:45,680
Made by Isabelle.

622
01:04:47,300 --> 01:04:50,039
So you're settled in the country...

623
01:04:50,140 --> 01:04:52,079
I'm not very ambitious.

624
01:04:52,180 --> 01:04:55,800
I've a few patients,
I like taking it easy.

625
01:04:56,020 --> 01:04:58,719
Finally, someone who's
as lazy as I am.

626
01:04:58,820 --> 01:05:00,359
and who admits it.

627
01:05:00,460 --> 01:05:04,680
Why do people today consider
work as a virtue?

628
01:05:04,820 --> 01:05:07,120
I brag about my laziness.

629
01:05:08,700 --> 01:05:11,159
You know the song,
"The King of Yvetot"...

630
01:05:11,260 --> 01:05:14,999
<i>There was a King of Yvetot,
Whom history little knows,</i>

631
01:05:15,100 --> 01:05:17,120
<i>Early to bed and late to rise,</i>

632
01:05:17,340 --> 01:05:19,919
<i>No glory marked his repose</i>

633
01:05:20,020 --> 01:05:21,959
<i>His crown was from Jeanneton,</i>

634
01:05:22,060 --> 01:05:24,080
<i>A nightcap of cotton, ronron.</i>

635
01:05:26,620 --> 01:05:29,119
The King of Yvetot, that's me!

636
01:05:29,220 --> 01:05:31,440
Fish, forester style.

637
01:05:35,700 --> 01:05:37,600
Allow me.

638
01:05:41,020 --> 01:05:43,120
Watch it, dear.

639
01:06:16,340 --> 01:06:17,960
Sorry.

640
01:06:24,980 --> 01:06:27,759
What style did you say?

641
01:06:27,860 --> 01:06:29,199
It's fish.

642
01:06:29,300 --> 01:06:32,199
Granted, only you forgot to cook it.

643
01:06:32,300 --> 01:06:35,280
We're out of butane gas.

644
01:06:41,500 --> 01:06:43,799
Then Amed�e came, all excited.

645
01:06:43,900 --> 01:06:46,959
He'll get the butcher shop,
but I won't be...

646
01:06:47,060 --> 01:06:48,399
a butcher's wife.

647
01:06:48,500 --> 01:06:50,520
She wants to be a hetaera.

648
01:06:52,980 --> 01:06:57,199
But you can be both
butcher's wife and a hetaera.

649
01:06:57,300 --> 01:07:00,480
Take it away, we can't eat it.

650
01:07:05,100 --> 01:07:07,560
I'll make some spaghetti.

651
01:07:17,540 --> 01:07:20,280
Is the little pooch alright?

652
01:07:20,820 --> 01:07:23,200
Thanks to you.

653
01:08:05,220 --> 01:08:07,640
Darling, give me a straw.

654
01:08:28,940 --> 01:08:30,639
It's delicious.

655
01:08:30,740 --> 01:08:34,399
Andre fixed the frigidaire,
now we'll have cold drinks.

656
01:08:34,500 --> 01:08:38,039
Get more glasses and call Andr�,

657
01:08:38,140 --> 01:08:40,519
so we can drink together.

658
01:08:40,620 --> 01:08:41,759
He's busy.

659
01:08:41,860 --> 01:08:43,399
Fixing the bathroom faucet.

660
01:08:43,500 --> 01:08:45,160
About time.

661
01:08:45,820 --> 01:08:48,679
He couldn't earlier,
he filled the wine-bottles.

662
01:08:48,780 --> 01:08:53,040
He fixed the garden tap, too.
He's a marvel, that boy!

663
01:08:55,980 --> 01:08:57,680
Go get him.

664
01:09:08,380 --> 01:09:10,040
Give me a wrench.

665
01:09:14,340 --> 01:09:15,639
Here.

666
01:09:15,740 --> 01:09:18,119
I finished the bathroom.

667
01:09:18,220 --> 01:09:21,879
I found another little thing
that needed fixing.

668
01:09:21,980 --> 01:09:24,639
Edmond wants us to drink with him.

669
01:09:24,740 --> 01:09:27,360
Bring glasses and orgeat syrup.

670
01:09:32,900 --> 01:09:35,159
Now it won't leak anymore.

671
01:09:35,260 --> 01:09:37,280
He'll be glad.

672
01:09:54,140 --> 01:09:55,759
Are you happy?

673
01:09:55,860 --> 01:09:57,799
I'm happy because he's happy.

674
01:09:57,900 --> 01:09:59,799
He's a great guy.

675
01:09:59,900 --> 01:10:04,199
You know what he said after I fixes
his carburetor this morning?

676
01:10:04,300 --> 01:10:08,240
"Andr�", he said,
"what would I do without you?"

677
01:10:08,900 --> 01:10:10,640
He's very nice.

678
01:10:59,900 --> 01:11:04,960
Why don't we try the car and see if
the carburetor's ok now?

679
01:11:05,340 --> 01:11:07,080
Good idea.

680
01:11:08,260 --> 01:11:10,399
I'll have to paint that bench.

681
01:11:10,500 --> 01:11:12,520
Let's refresh ourselves!

682
01:11:51,220 --> 01:11:54,160
Come, Linda, we're going
for a drive.

683
01:12:08,340 --> 01:12:11,560
Ah, Mr. Joly!
Going in for potato farming?

684
01:12:30,940 --> 01:12:32,639
What do I owe?

685
01:12:32,740 --> 01:12:35,600
At 10 cents a point, 3 francs.

686
01:12:36,300 --> 01:12:38,759
I think you lose on purpose.

687
01:12:38,860 --> 01:12:40,759
What an idea! Why?

688
01:12:40,860 --> 01:12:42,799
To please me.

689
01:12:42,900 --> 01:12:46,040
I wouldn't, even to please you.

690
01:12:47,300 --> 01:12:48,679
What's for dinner?

691
01:12:48,780 --> 01:12:51,760
I'll do it, I'll make ravioli.

692
01:12:52,660 --> 01:12:54,599
I adore ravioli!

693
01:12:54,700 --> 01:12:56,720
Watch your cholesterol.

694
01:13:00,580 --> 01:13:04,679
I don't exercise enough.
I'll play some bowls.

695
01:13:04,780 --> 01:13:06,199
Come along?

696
01:13:06,300 --> 01:13:07,719
And my ravioli?

697
01:13:07,820 --> 01:13:09,480
He's making the ravioli.

698
01:13:10,140 --> 01:13:12,120
Ah, yes, the ravioli.

699
01:13:12,660 --> 01:13:14,960
See you later, darling.

700
01:13:15,260 --> 01:13:18,359
Paulette,
for the ravioli get me some...

701
01:13:18,460 --> 01:13:21,519
flour, butter, salt, pepper...

702
01:13:21,620 --> 01:13:24,040
and the pastry board.

703
01:13:32,700 --> 01:13:34,800
I wonder if...

704
01:13:35,540 --> 01:13:38,720
I should make chicken
or spinach ravioli?

705
01:13:39,380 --> 01:13:42,360
I'll make them with ham.

706
01:13:43,420 --> 01:13:45,800
You've lots of time, come.

707
01:14:01,340 --> 01:14:05,039
Funny, but I feel remorse.
It can't last.

708
01:14:05,140 --> 01:14:07,519
He's happy whenever I'm happy,

709
01:14:07,620 --> 01:14:10,880
so you needn't feel remorse.

710
01:14:50,780 --> 01:14:52,439
Hi, Skipper!

711
01:14:52,540 --> 01:14:54,919
Hello, C�sar, how goes it?

712
01:14:55,020 --> 01:14:56,959
Not too well, Skipper.

713
01:14:57,060 --> 01:15:00,000
I'm so thirsty, I can't think!

714
01:15:00,700 --> 01:15:02,879
Been at it again, eh?

715
01:15:02,980 --> 01:15:05,960
No, no... not that, Skipper.

716
01:15:08,380 --> 01:15:11,119
Pity an old hungry sailor...

717
01:15:11,220 --> 01:15:13,239
and a thirsty one.

718
01:15:13,340 --> 01:15:16,959
You wouldn't refuse me a mite,
between sailors.

719
01:15:17,060 --> 01:15:22,119
I'll give something but,
frankly, it's to down a couple, no?

720
01:15:22,220 --> 01:15:24,119
To your health, Skipper!

721
01:15:24,220 --> 01:15:27,200
To your health, Sir!
One-two, one-two...

722
01:15:31,340 --> 01:15:35,019
I forgot my wallet,
I'll go back for it.

723
01:15:35,120 --> 01:15:37,400
Wait here, be patient.

724
01:15:38,300 --> 01:15:40,880
Would you have a fag, Skipper?

725
01:15:41,980 --> 01:15:44,360
Are you all set now?

726
01:16:18,100 --> 01:16:20,280
What are you doing?

727
01:16:22,100 --> 01:16:23,920
Preparing the ravioli.

728
01:16:24,220 --> 01:16:27,080
Here? Now that's an idea.

729
01:16:45,060 --> 01:16:46,560
Where's Madame?

730
01:16:47,020 --> 01:16:48,440
I don't know.

731
01:16:49,660 --> 01:16:51,360
You don't know?

732
01:16:54,580 --> 01:16:56,199
And Mr. Andr�?

733
01:16:56,300 --> 01:16:57,960
I don't know... I...

734
01:17:06,140 --> 01:17:07,920
Move away.

735
01:17:08,700 --> 01:17:13,720
Oh, Mr. Duvallier,
don't go in there, don't go in!

736
01:17:18,100 --> 01:17:20,000
Get up.

737
01:17:43,860 --> 01:17:45,720
You're right.

738
01:17:47,380 --> 01:17:49,840
I shouldn't go in.

739
01:19:46,060 --> 01:19:48,720
If your wife cheated,
what would you do?

740
01:19:49,660 --> 01:19:53,280
Nothing, I haven't got a wife!

741
01:20:00,700 --> 01:20:03,159
But that's too much, Skipper.

742
01:20:03,260 --> 01:20:05,280
Seamon C�sar...

743
01:20:07,020 --> 01:20:09,999
Your orders are... to get plastered,

744
01:20:10,100 --> 01:20:12,599
like you've never been
plastered before.

745
01:20:12,700 --> 01:20:14,720
Aye, aye, Sir!

746
01:20:39,020 --> 01:20:41,919
If your wife cheated,
what would you do?

747
01:20:42,020 --> 01:20:45,000
My wife cheated? She's too old.

748
01:21:04,420 --> 01:21:06,919
If your wife had a lover...

749
01:21:07,020 --> 01:21:08,439
what would you do?

750
01:21:08,540 --> 01:21:10,560
Kill'em both.

751
01:21:10,900 --> 01:21:12,879
You love her so?

752
01:21:12,980 --> 01:21:15,960
I wouldn't like being a jerk.

753
01:21:16,620 --> 01:21:17,919
Of course.

754
01:21:18,020 --> 01:21:20,640
Question of honor, no?

755
01:21:57,700 --> 01:21:59,399
What misery!

756
01:21:59,500 --> 01:22:01,959
I'll regret it all my life.

757
01:22:02,060 --> 01:22:04,080
Ah yes, what misery!

758
01:22:04,660 --> 01:22:06,839
And it's all my fault.

759
01:22:06,940 --> 01:22:10,559
If we'd remained just friends,
we'd still be happy..

760
01:22:10,660 --> 01:22:12,680
and so would he.

761
01:22:14,620 --> 01:22:17,080
Will I see you again?

762
01:22:20,700 --> 01:22:22,959
You think he'll return?

763
01:22:23,060 --> 01:22:24,279
Yes, he loves you.

764
01:22:24,380 --> 01:22:27,360
Yes, but only when I'm happy.

765
01:22:27,780 --> 01:22:30,679
When I'm unhappy, I upset him,

766
01:22:30,780 --> 01:22:33,560
and if you leave, I'll be unhappy.

767
01:22:38,780 --> 01:22:41,200
It's not just us three.

768
01:22:42,420 --> 01:22:44,799
There's public opinion.

769
01:22:44,900 --> 01:22:48,719
Captain Duvallier can't
overlook such an insult.

770
01:22:48,820 --> 01:22:50,759
People will know?

771
01:22:50,860 --> 01:22:52,680
Such news travels fast.

772
01:23:37,820 --> 01:23:40,680
Oh, if you knew, if you knew!

773
01:23:43,220 --> 01:23:46,360
I was preparing the flour...

774
01:23:47,100 --> 01:23:48,920
for the ravioli...

775
01:24:17,460 --> 01:24:21,040
They were caught together,
what a scandal!

776
01:24:35,020 --> 01:24:37,880
I'll play you 13 points, OK?

777
01:24:45,780 --> 01:24:48,280
I've something to tell you.

778
01:24:50,860 --> 01:24:53,760
Nothing, it can wait. Let's play.

779
01:25:15,780 --> 01:25:17,519
What's funny?

780
01:25:17,620 --> 01:25:21,080
Your clumsiness,
which contradicts the proverb...

781
01:25:21,540 --> 01:25:24,319
"Luck in game, unlucky in love."

782
01:25:24,420 --> 01:25:26,960
I'll knock you block off!

783
01:25:30,220 --> 01:25:32,000
You're a brute.

784
01:25:33,860 --> 01:25:36,200
A dirty brute!

785
01:25:38,460 --> 01:25:41,480
Joly, you're a mean man.

786
01:25:43,780 --> 01:25:45,960
From Mr. Feraud.

787
01:25:53,180 --> 01:25:54,720
Idiot!

788
01:26:45,380 --> 01:26:47,520
Ah, there you are!

789
01:26:54,180 --> 01:26:57,119
Why are we
in this God-forsaken place?

790
01:26:57,220 --> 01:26:59,799
To avoid witnesses, Mr. Duvallier.

791
01:26:59,900 --> 01:27:02,799
"Mr."? Yesterday
you called me Edmond.

792
01:27:02,900 --> 01:27:04,880
And why that get-up?

793
01:27:05,740 --> 01:27:09,800
Wouldn't you admit that life has
certain delicate moments...

794
01:27:12,260 --> 01:27:15,639
when serious
explanations are called for...

795
01:27:15,740 --> 01:27:18,999
explanations requiring
a certain decorum?

796
01:27:19,100 --> 01:27:22,280
I don't understand a word
of your murky talk.

797
01:27:23,540 --> 01:27:28,240
The situation is only too clear,
alas, with but a sole solution,

798
01:27:28,460 --> 01:27:29,759
I see.

799
01:27:29,860 --> 01:27:31,880
What do you have there?

800
01:27:32,340 --> 01:27:34,440
Pistols, Mr. Duvallier.

801
01:27:35,740 --> 01:27:38,000
That's your sole solution?

802
01:27:55,620 --> 01:28:00,080
And, naturally, you'd have kept
the unloaded one for yourself.

803
01:28:00,740 --> 01:28:02,760
I'm very unhappy.

804
01:28:03,300 --> 01:28:06,480
I can't... imagine life...
without Isabelle.

805
01:28:06,740 --> 01:28:09,479
nor, I must confess... without you...

806
01:28:09,580 --> 01:28:13,040
That's why you want
to make me a murderer?

807
01:28:13,460 --> 01:28:15,439
You won't duel?

808
01:28:15,540 --> 01:28:16,999
Certainly not!

809
01:28:17,100 --> 01:28:20,919
What'll I do? Beat it? Go to China?

810
01:28:21,020 --> 01:28:23,040
You'd do that to me?

811
01:28:23,740 --> 01:28:26,720
You'd abandon your King of Yvetot?

812
01:28:27,100 --> 01:28:29,320
What'll I do without you?

813
01:28:29,780 --> 01:28:31,359
And my wife?

814
01:28:31,460 --> 01:28:32,799
Think of her.

815
01:28:32,900 --> 01:28:34,839
You're selfish!

816
01:28:34,940 --> 01:28:36,479
What about convention?

817
01:28:36,580 --> 01:28:39,159
I don't care a hoot about
convention,

818
01:28:39,260 --> 01:28:41,159
and you shouldn't either.

819
01:28:41,260 --> 01:28:43,079
That would be a revolution!

820
01:28:43,180 --> 01:28:45,599
Revolutions make life bearable.

821
01:28:45,700 --> 01:28:50,200
Revolutions in the kitchen,
the bedroom, the village square...

822
01:28:50,620 --> 01:28:53,559
tempests in a tea cup.

823
01:28:53,660 --> 01:28:56,280
We'd better play some bowls.

824
01:28:59,060 --> 01:29:01,840
Edmond, you're
an extraordinary man!

825
01:29:04,060 --> 01:29:05,800
Oh, come on.

826
01:29:07,980 --> 01:29:10,440
To get Isabelle.
