Cousins In Love.

My name's Julien. I'm 15

That's me

OK, let's say I'm 14 and a half

I'm destined to be in love with my cousin Julia

Behold. Whatever way you look at her, it's worth it

She's more beautiful than Venus. The naked woman in the scallop shell

At least, I think so

This is Puone, Julia's sister

My cousin too, of course

She's superhuman. She can talk for five minutes without breathing or thinking

Problem is, she loves me.

She won't even let go of me so that I can take a leak

That's auntie Adele, my cousins' mother

She's anxious about the calories that chase her down to make her fat

That's my sister Claire

Always removing her hair peacefully in the sun

Luckily, it grows back, otherwise her days would seem never-ending

She's to marry into money with him

It's not a very interesting topic

My mum, she's very sweet but she gets mad when money doesn't come in

And money keeps staying out

So she eventually decided to take in lodgers

A German scientist who avoided fascism...

with her daughter...

and an actress who avoided the talkies

Finally, this is my dad

Always dressed up to the nines and wearing perfume

We feel like we're his poor relatives or his Bedouins

Actually, among the Bedouins, we find...

Mr. Lacroix, the steward...

Mrs. Lacroix, his wife...

Mathilde, the lady's maid...

Justine...

Madeleine...

and Angele, the maids

Antoine...

and Matthieu, the farmhands

Mr. Bazu, the postman

Otherwise, the summer looks promising

We're in 1939...

and life has never been so peaceful

Cousins In Love

Get a move on and don't dawdle on the way

What do you mean "dawdle"?

You must be joking!

Breakfast is served, madam

Mathilde, come here, I have to talk to you

- Morning - Morning Mrs... I mean Miss

- How are you? Did you sleep OK? - I did

- He's so ugly! - Who?

Mussolini in swimming trunks, he's dreadful

I heard he loves spaghetti

Quiet! Now, it's me...

- Morning, ladies - Morning, Mr. Bazu

- Have you fed him? - He's always peckish. Rex!

- Nothing for me? - No, Mrs. Clementine

From such a far country!

Not the plumber again!

For Mrs. Adele... It's a veined pebble

- It's beautiful - It's just a stone!

Would you mind removing your bicycle from my jam?

Sorry! Right, have a good day, ladies. See you tomorrow

Your bag, Mr. Bazu. What's in it?

- My pebbles - Pebbles?

I'm building myself a palace

- Morning, honey - Morning, auntie Agnes

- Had your breakie yet? - Yes

- Morning - Right, I'm going

- I'm so nervous - Take care of yourself!

She's riding her mare for the first time

I found a poppy

Nasty animal!

Sorry, I thought it was the dog

- Did I hurt you? - No, I'm OK

Where's my clip?

She loves me... she loves me not...

- Stop it, you're annoying me! - She loves me

- Don't play the innocent with me! - I don't

Leave me alone!

Morning Antoine, it looks like the perfect day to get slapped

That's quite a show there, poor thing!

I'm going to tell you a secret. I'm in love

Don't repeat it to anyone!

We need firm-handed men. Here you are!

Did you take a look at yourself? Take this tray

- And cover yourself up! - Well, I had my hands full

Playing with a wooden stick?

Hitler won't spoil his appetite for sure!

When Madelon came to serve us drinks

Under the arbor, we touch her underskirt

and he beat his wife with a big stick

And he beat his wife with a big stick...

Come on, chop chop!

Why did you remove your straps?

- I know what you're getting at - It's for the strap marks

- What's with you? - I want to

Behave. Careful with my tan oil

Here

Can't you give me a break?

I'm allowed... I'm allowed, honestly

We said, once in Venice

Breakfast

Good grief, what a mess!

Orderliness is a façade. It goes with time

Really?

- Is that all? - That's enough!

By order of Mrs. Agnes. As long as the lodgers don't pay...

Even Miss Clementine...

she fell into arrears

- You have mail from Berlin - Thank you

- Can you keep the stamp for me? - Sure

- Why don't you buy me a horse? - You'll get one when we're in Venice

Go on, go see Justine!

Justine is like me. Free love

- Oh yeah? - Yeah

She's a modern woman

- And she's not stupid - Stupid?

Morning, perfect day to get slapped

- He's so stupid! - Look at that poor thing

Puone, stop it. It's not a toy

- Here's Julien, at last... - Julien!

Julien, my love

I dressed up Rex as an aviator

- I've grown seven centimeters - Look...

And I've got all my teeth

Julia got a mare for A-level. But nothing for me!

- Hello, Mum - Hello, darling

Hello, big boy, I was waiting for you

That's not the right number

Whistling kisses, best kisses

- Are you hungry? - Yes, he's hungry. Aren't you?

Go to the kitchen. Your aunt ate it all, even the cloth

Come on

Not so big!

- Hello - Mr. Julien!

You've broadened out!

- I'm hungry, can I eat something? - Of course, Justine!

- I'll fix him something - Move over

- Mr. Julien, a bit of plonk? - No, thanks

Where have you been? Your cheek's all swollen

Me? I banged my head against the stable door

A door with five fingers! Come on, help yourself to toast

Wake up, Matthieu, pass me the butter

Come on, wake up. Pass me her butt

You two are a real pain in the neck!

Come on, show them your shoes

Have you seen his shoes?

- What's with my shoes? - Hey, what is this bulge?

- Stop it! - Matthieu, look

He's sleeping, that's enough. Watch the children!

Don't worry. We know this stuff

See? Only you don't know this stuff

Leave me alone. Go see your door

- The balls are in the jar - OK

- Got your bat? - Yes

- Great - Give it to me

See? In theory, I need the ball to throw it

- Be a dear, don't start, OK? - Look, honey...

The car's here so make it shine!

- Good - OK, let's go

Right, here goes

Ready? I'm serving

Hang on, I have those stupid stockings!

- You're playing in stockings? - Well...

So what? You've messed up your trousers

- Right, what's the score? - Still 15 to 5

Good doggy

Move like this, this, this Little puppets, little puppets...

- Here's your brother - Julien, look, I'm playing Ping-Pong

- And my creams? - They're on your bed

- Have you seen Mum? - Baby, please

- We don't have time for this - There's no panic!

- You make me laugh, honestly - Well, not me

- Hi... Don't you want to kiss me? - Let him concentrate

Right...

- Got it? - Yes

Firstly, the left hand...

- Do you wear bras? - Of course

I shave

Secondly, the left knee...

Have you received my letters?

Your letters? You mean your novels!

Right, I got it

Thirdly, open chest...

Have you seen how much our rosebushes have grown?

What? Oh yeah...

- And fourthly... - I brought something for you

Thanks

Well done! I broke a nail

Aesthetics or sport, make up your mind

You know what? I have made up my mind, bye!

Oh for God's sake, now is not the time!

Fetch the pebble!

Julien, always the last to show up

Thanks for the creams...

No, I don't want the dog!

Today, July 5th 1939...

after years of research, I think I've isolated the soul

- It's wonderful! - Are you going to sell it?

Charles, who the devil to?

- Who is she? - The professor's daughter

She doesn't like boys. I'm telling you

What is it?

Swiss blade

It's for you

It's very sweet, thank you

- And what do souls look like? - They're very volatile

Speaking of which...

Coming, coming...

You scared me

Stop it, I'll mess up my clothes

Man, that's a lot of food! Can I have a taste?

- Can I have a taste? - Justine will be here soon

I say, it tastes better on you

Leave me alone!

- The boss won't be happy - So?

- She hasn't been too kind lately - Her husband can't please her

Careful!

- And Fougeras Lavignole? - Lavergnolle!

Yes! La... vergnolle. Still no news?

No, but I'm used to it. He always takes ages

- Is that her husband? - No, her manager

I heard he's her lover

- You know what a lover is? - Well...

- Are you gonna shoot a film? - No talking around the table

That's OK. Yes, based on Anna Karenina

- Will there be lions? - No

Something's going on

What a way to behave! You two are like dogs

Hey, stallion, go back to your stable. We'll talk later

And what's this?

- It's the chicken - Well, pick it up

Cover yourself up

I can't help it. They're hanging out

I'll tidy it up for you. Come here

Of course, there's a button missing. Scram

And the chicken!

Baby, show the ring to madam

Madam, since you like jewellery

At last!

It's so small!

- It's an investment! - Beautiful

My father's the only man who finds diamonds at the bottom of bathtubs

Is he a plumber?

His father made a fortune working in toilets

My wife loved jewellery

Do you remember your mum?

She was a whore

Give me the ring back, please

That chicken was tied down

Do you remember going to the river?

- Are we there yet? - Hey, wait for me!

Wait, I only have a low gear

Wait, I need a wee

Hurray for solidarity!

Should we stop here?

When I ride my mare, she does the pedalling

It's dirty!

You're always moaning

Hey, it's Charles. Charles!

- So, Bartali, do you have a puncture? - That thing is very slow going

- OK, I get the hint. Hop in - Oh, thanks!

You take care of my bike

- What are you doing? - I'm looking for something

What?

Wait, is it a Swiss blade?

Sort of...

How did you get that?

Well... I traded it

- For what? - A secret

- What secret? - Well...

It's about Charles. When he's in love, he...

Are you sure?

His face gets jammed

Come on, stop it, it tickles

Didn't you put some lipstick on?

- Whose would it be? - Claire's

- I'll tell you something about Charles - What is it?

Go ahead. Invite her

- I can't dance - Neither can she

Go

I can't dance

I'd like to

You're such a good dancer!

Like in the movies

Is it the priests who taught you?

It's the last bottle

The mayor is waiting outside. He needs to see you

Ask him to come by tomorrow. My husband will be here

He is insistent

All right, I'll go. Save some champagne for me

I'll probably need it

Wait, I'm thirsty

Is that the beat?

84

- Shall we dance? - She can't

All the more reason

Shall we?

- Stop, I've had enough - I was just getting into it...

That mayor!

He claims excessive money just for the water

The Popular Front, what a mentality!

Professor...

Here, drink

Naturally, it's tepid

- How's your hiccup? - Better

Excuse me

July 5th 1939

I danced with him

Feeling his breath on my skin was exciting

I think he loves me...

but it can 't happen

We must be strong

My cousin Julien is a piteous sight

Poor thing

If only he could know true love, it would transform him

My God, this is all so difficult!

A soul

It's cold!

What is it?

It's me

- Not now - It's urgent

Come in

What do you want?

I need to talk to you

Do you think now is a good time?

Thank you, leave us alone

I'm listening

I can't stand your little game with this guy. You two are ridiculous

- Who are you talking about? - You know

- Close your eyes - What?

Close your eyes, I'm going to rinse out

So?

Have you thought about Claire?

Can you rub my back?

Damn you!

I'm bored. It's a rotten life!

- Do you want to play a game? - Quiet, I'm thinking

Nonsense! You know what I think? You're wrong

Look at Charles, he doesn't think...

and it works out for him

Who's that?

Hey, Julien, come and take a look!

Be quiet and come here

Julien, come take a look!

Hurry up, I'm telling you. You won't regret it

How does it feel to see a naked woman?

Hurry up, we can't miss this!

Help!

Afternoon, madam

- What now? Why have we stopped? - It needs to cool off

- Fancy a swim? - I can't, I don't have my swimsuit

Me neither

- Let's go - Wait!

I'd like to drive

- OK, take my seat - What?

- Do I start the engine? - No, later

All right, see this leg?

It's for the accelerator

Now, this one...

the left one, is for the brake

Your hands are cold

Look, don't be so stiff. Relax

- The keys! - Where are they?

- I dropped them - Where?

- Here, here! - Where?

Flowers!

- I'm going to make up a bouquet - Where are the keys?

Damn, it's so hard!

Move over, I'll do it

I'm going to look for the keys

Shit, I cut myself

Are you hurt? Let me see

- Help me - You're bleeding!

Don't stand there, come

Let go of me, you'll make me fall

Keep your hands away!

- You're so tall! - It's because you're on your knees

Stand up!

- I'm good - Stop it!

You've made another stain

Let's go for swim... Let me go!

- A bee! It stung me on my thigh! - Where?

- No, my foot - Ah, your feet!

- I can see the keys! - Where?

Where are they?

There? Where?

Sir, I think I've noticed lipstick on your lips

Thank you, Lacroix

Here's Dad!

Oh heck!

- My dear Daddy! - Hi, honey

- Do you have my wedding dress? - Oh!

Of course I do!

Well done! Well done!

- Are you sure there's ribbons? - Of course

- Hello, Matthieu - Hello, sir

Hang on, easy does it!

- Here, Matthieu. It's for you - Thanks, sir

All right, let's go in

- Don't look at it, it's bad luck - It might as well be

It's so nice and quiet

Shut the window, Edouard, you're letting the insects in

On the secretaire, there are three letters...

for the due dates

Tomorrow

Tomorrow, you'll talk to the professor and to Clementine

They owe me three months' rent

- By the way, what about her manager? - A lot of hogwash!

The mayor came yesterday. He wanted to talk to you

How are you going to pay for all this?

My boat is so small...

and the sea is so vast

You have a boat, now?

By the way...

thanks!

How considerate! Even more than the farmhand

You used to love artists

You're right, I'm letting the insects in

Maybe you can't see it from your boat...

but you have a family and a son...

who, by the way, is going through a gloomy puberty

It's nice to chat with you

Do you know you're marrying off your daughter?

You're marrying her off!

To a plumber's son!

Well, come in

Don't just stand there, you're intimidating me

I can't sleep

What are they?

My first souls

- Is pink for girls? - Colors are for my pleasure

Souls have no gender

Where do you find them?

When someone dies...

I catch it

This one's 20 days old

What do you do with them?

I observe them, then I set them free

They don't belong to me. They're here

They're passing

Like love?

Yes, like love

Are you sad, young man?

It's good for you sometimes

Too much happiness makes you stupid

Look at me...

I was teaching at university

I had a house...

a wife

Ah, the sun!

It's almost like Italy

I shot a costume film there

Florence, Siena, Capri...

Spaghetti!

Mussolini

Gustave, the jam of Venice

It tops anything else

You eat flowers now?

Speaking of Gustave, he couldn't open his casino without our money

True, but he was so nice after that

And he died with dignity

- Where's my daughter? - With her mare

You have no money and you buy her a horse

It was a tiny mare for her A-levels

You get your daughter a husband to redo the roof of the house

Where are you?

- I'm here, baby - What are you doing?

I'm thinking... about your breasts

Think of something else

- It's worse - Tell me you're not thinking about her

- Who? - You know who I mean

That kid? No such luck!

You're a liar

I'd like to sort your head out

Look, it's Charles

Scram, kids!

That's our home!

Come on, I have an idea. The sheep...

Come here, little sheep

What are you doing up there? Get down!

I like it when you're like that

Darling

You're sleeping!

Should I tell you what we'll do in Venice?

Close your eyes

Feel how hot I am?

If you promise not to take advantage of it...

I'll take my swimsuit off

The sheep's stolen the car!

- Can I come in? - Yes

Poor Julien, you're grounded again

- You're too old for this kind of silliness - As if I care

Your bed is so comfortable

Compared to ours

Can I lie next to you?

I'm so tired!

Well, relax. I'm not going to eat you

Have you ever kissed a girl?

Of course I have

On the lips?

Sometimes

And you told her nice things?

Of course

Can you do it to me?

Now?

Well, you're not saying anything

Don't you know a poem from school?

It snowed

A defeat was our conquest red

For once the eagle was hanging its head

Sad days...

Hang on, let's make ourselves more comfortable

the Emperor turned slowly his back

Leaving behind him...

Moscow in...

Leaving...

Moscow in...

in flames

What is he going to do with Poland?

Why not Belgium?

Anything can happen with him

- What's wrong with him? - Nothing

He wants Puone and Julien

Professor, do you think dogs have souls?

Possibly...

- We can't hear ourselves think! - Rex!

Look, is that punishment really important?

Is your car really damaged?

- But what about the sheep? - It's not as serious, I'll go

Don't you know another one?

Do you know Latin?

Who cares, I'm on holiday

If Antoine saw you...

what a hammering you'd get!

I'm only joking

What the devil are you doing to him?

Edouard, come here!

Aren't you hungry?

Do you want one?

- Is Mum really upset? - She'll calm down

Mathilde is going. She's been fired

But I gave her the address of a friend in Paris

It's not my fault

That's between you and you

When you start smoking, you don't burn others

Anyway, next time, try not to get caught

- What time did you go this morning? - 6:00

- Here's the new one - Thanks

- She's so young - You'll put away your luggage later.

- Show her where her room is - Will do

Wake up at 6:00. Two meals a day

Meat is served three times a week

Every four Sundays you can see your mother

I don't have one

- You'll get a Christmas gift - And Jesus will bless you

Watch it!

All right, come

- Sit down. Are you hungry? - A little

- Here. What's your name? - Agnes

- What? - Agnes

You'll have to change cos Agnes is the name of the boss

Yeah, it's annoying

- What can we call her? - Well...

- Madeleine is pretty, isn't it? - True

- It's quite good - Madeleine it is! Let's christen her

Here, have a drink, sweetie

- We'll help you make a stash of money - Leave her alone, she's not for you

He's my husband-to-be

- What about the boss? - Don't worry. He's harmless

She's the boss. She's the one with the money

- Is she that rich? - No!

She owns the house but she's spent all the rent

What business of hers is it?

You have to understand...

These people are very clumsy

- You'll keep her busy - OK

We need to fill in the letter

Listen

"Dear mother"

"I'm doing well. The food is good"

"I sleep well too"

"I hope that you're well when you receive this letter"

"Your beloved Matthieu"

- Can't I send her lots of love? - If you want

It's a good house. I know the boss

Have you seen my car?

- What's going on? - I need to talk to you

The new one's arrived and Charles is already in love with her

They arranged to meet

- What are you talking about? - He hangs around her

- Are you sure? - Of course! I heard everything

OK, come with me. Come on!

Hurry up!

You're writing to Julia?

You're arranging to meet her

"...when the rooster sings"

- Why did you sign Charles? - Take this to Julia's

- Try not to be seen - Oh, more romance!

Charles, are you here?

Are you here?

Madeleine, are you here?

Are you here?

I'm here, sir

I'm glad you came

- Why are you shaking? - Are you going to get naughty?

Of course not, don't be afraid

- No, please - Yes, come on

Please

Bastard!

You bastard!

She hasn't come home to eat

- You looked everywhere? - Yes

- In the attic? - Not the attic

- She's not in the stable - Isn't she?

- Julia - Julia!

- Have you seen Julia? - No, I have a headache

- Has anybody got some aspirin? - Julia!

- It's me, open up - Go to bed. I'm afraid of the thunder

- So open up - Go to bed, I say

I don't know what's come over her

- Angele? - What?

- Who is it? - It's me

- Are you scared of the thunder? - No, go away. I'm sleeping

She's deaf

It hurts, doesn't it? How old are you?

I'll turn 16 tomorrow

16 is almost nothing

- You've never been hurt before? - Never as much

You're lucky

Some of them start when they're young

And then it won't stop

And there's nothing we can do?

There's no harm in dreaming

Here

Since it's your birthday...

Let me give it to you

- Are they real? - Real or fake... who cares?

Today, I had a glorious feat

I helped my cousin break free from this stupid Charles

But now, she's sad

If only I didn't love that silly girl so much...

Nature is a terrible thing

I have feelings but I'm not old enough, he's old enough but he has no feelings

- Happy birthday - Thank you

- Happy birthday, miss - Thanks

So, you're getting old?

Not faster than you

- You're gonna get a stomach ache - No such luck!

- What do you want, baby? - Can I get an orange juice?

- A what? - An ice-cold orange juice

Ice-cold? In your condition?

Can I get an orange juice, please?

That's lemonade. Don't you know what an orange is?

Idiot!

- She's not in a good mood - Very happy, yes

- Can I try? - You're going to mess up your dress

- You wanna bet? - OK

Come on, my turn

Be careful when you walk. You have to lift up the dress

There. Can I get another pin?

- Is it all right? - Lower your collar

There's a button missing

- Is the princess ready? - Yes, she is

- Professor, why are you here? - Should I say we're starting the show?

I'm not ready

- Who's this handsome young man? - It's Casanova

He's got a bad reputation

Hurry, the guests are getting impatient

- I'll never make it - Now is not the time

Here goes

Tonight, in honor of our beloved Julia...

whose 16th birthday it is...

we'll have the privilege...

to hear miss Clementine Granval...

in a few scenes from "Fantasio"...

by Alfred de Musset

You're like the Queen of Spain

- Where does this come from? - Clementine gave it to me

- So they're probably fake - Why?

- What's the matter? - My stomach hurts

- And what's that? - It's a gift

What a missed sunset!

Nature is pitiful tonight

"Such good tobacco, such a good beer"

Such good tobacco, such a good beer

- You must be bored, Spark - "No, why would I?"

No, why would I?

What are they saying? I don't get it

All those human bodies are so lonely

Drink, lazybones, instead of racking your brains

Well said!

- Silence, that's enough - Man is such a miserable creature

Not being able to jump out of the window without breaking a leg

- Having to... - Good afternoon all!

Aren't you watching?

Well, I like theatre as much as you do

Give me a draught of cider

- How old are you? - 17

- Do you want some? - No, thanks

Come closer

- Do you like it here? - Yes...

I won't eat you

- See how good Julien was! - He was

Well, go

Go, I say. It's your turn. Come on

But it's Matthieu... Matthieu!

Soon, you'll be heading for Mantua with your wedding dress

Why should I be upset?

I have no reason to wish you dead

"But if chance made you see..."

But if chance made you see...

"...what I want to keep secret"

what a wand to keep secret

Now I understand what they're saying!

Silence

"...should I shove you out?"

- Me? - No! Repeat the line!

He's a child of poverty...

Quiet!

- I cheated on you but you don't know it - I do know

- No, you don't - Yes, I do

- With her - It's not true

Of course, it's true. Tell them

Hit me, I say. Come on, hit me!

Take this one!

- Madam? - What's going on?

The mayor is here

Don't fire me, please

Here's your housekeeper, with her pockets full of mysteries

Well I never!

- Now is not the time! - But I wasn't...

- I don't care - Thanks, madam

Listen, the mayor is here, among the guests

Throw him out quickly!

I need to go get my scissors. Stay here

She's the one you should be congratulating

- Me - Congratulations

You were very good

- Honestly - Thanks but I'm not used to it

- You could go a long way - Where?

I'll explain later

I'll be waiting in the park

- Julia, can you do me a favor? - What?

No, I can't, it's a gift

- Since they're fake! - So what?

Give it to me anyway

Our family jewels

- But, madam. It's too much - No, no

Take good care of them. A queen wore them

Have you seen Julien?

Come on, Mum. Come with us

- Darling, I'm too old for this - You're young, come on

- I'm exhausted - Already?

- Are you OK, Mum? - Yes, I'm OK

Where are the others?

- What's wrong? - Nothing

It's all this running

Go!

Go and have fun!

You hate them, don't you?

You wish they were dead?

- How do you know? - It's quite obvious

With someone your age, it's always black or white

Pity comes later

Never! I'll never be like them

I'd rather be a monster

If you could catch my soul, it would be black

It's too early

Yours is as transparent as clear water...

and light

Light!

- Have you seen Matthieu? - No

Do you know the legend of Tristan and Isolde?

No...

It's a beautiful love story

Do you like love stories?

I don't really know, miss

Call me Tristan

Your mascara has run

Well, I sweated a lot. I haven't got a clue about theatre

I'm sure that your mouth...

is like a fruit

Your breathing...

That's my bra, Mrs. Tristan

What's going on?

- Why are you leaving? - The war broke out

Have you heard?

- What happened to Clementine? - She fainted

Are you going to go back to Germany?

- Why? - To fight the war against us

Me?

I'm too old for this silliness

Me too

So we're both lucky

- Lucky? - Of course

Dying of old age is just as valid as dying for your country

I heard it's the last one

Well...

Bye then

You'll have plenty of work to do

Make sure to stay awake

Don't scare me! Come on, get back in

Come on, back to work

Don't try to act like a hero

I promise I'll be a coward

Careful, miss

Leave it... I must do it myself! Go back to the kitchen, thank you

I was worried, you know

- Look out for the Germans - I will, baby

There you are

Be a dear with your mum and your sister

- No surprise - I forgot something

You behave too. Will you see Hitler?

- Possibly - Here, take a sweet

You're the man, now

What are we waiting for?

- Hold on! - They'll miss the war because of her

Here, this is a gift because it's always brought me luck

If you make it to Berlin...

here's the address

Hurry up! We're always waiting for you

Don't lose it, OK?

Be careful

Mum, wait

Hey, guys. Here's the first victim of the war

- Right, shall we? - OK, let's go

Cover yourself up, Mr. Julien. We're not at the beach

- You're gonna get sunburnt - My underskirt is sticky

Like this

- Come on, Angele. Get a move on! - I'm not used to it

Puone!

- What on earth are you doing? - I'm milking the cow

- She doesn't want to - Too bad!

- Come and do your homework - There's no homework anymore

- The priests have gone to war - I don't know about that!

- Can I help? - Careful

Give grain to the chickens. The bucket is on the ledge

- Do you mind? - Please do

- Where's Matthieu? - In the woods, he's still sleeping

- It burns - Show me, you don't know how to do it

Rub them, it comes from my heart

Justine is beautiful, isn't she?

- I'm getting bored up there! - Professor!

Where's Liselotte?

Julien, do you want to go for a walk with me?

- Not now, we're not finished - And we're far from finished

This war's off to a good start!

- Mrs. Lacroix, it's Julien - Come in

Mum told me to come up. I got sunburnt

No wonder since you were boasting on that cart

Lie down over there and take off your shirt

That's what we give to cows when their udders ache

Is it too cold?

I'll be gentle

- Is that you on there? - Yes

On our wedding day. It goes back a long way

- Is it Mr. Lacroix over there? - No, that's our son

- I didn't know you had a son - We don't anymore

Do you see the hat that Mr. Lacroix was wearing on our wedding day?

He was awkward! Mind you, I was hardly any better

It rained so much! Our feet were soaked

I never sneezed so much as I did on my wedding night

Are you feeling better?

No matter what it looked like...

he wouldn't go anywhere without it. He even danced with it

So I told him, in the kindest possible way...

"Are you a vegetable that you need to stay under that cloche?"

He blushed but he didn't take his hat off

I really thought he was going to go to bed with it

We got undressed

It smelt of damp in the room

You have soft skin

Well, I'm exhausted

I ran after the chickens all day long

- Any news? - The attack is imminent

The general, who says hi, recommended an aide-de-camp

A well-mannered young man, from the Beauce region too

We talk about the region

What nonsense!

What about your souls, professor? What do they think about the war?

I'm worried about them. They're feeling deflated

Darling, life is so awful here

We're cold and hungry but we're hanging in their... in there

My men have blind faith and me... in me

I command strict obeisance... obedience

You'd be proud of me, baby. Your...

Poor Charles. He makes me sad

He's clumsy with his men and they actually mock him

He endures constant ragging

Of course, don 't say a word to Claire

And where would you go, professor?

America, maybe

I still have the desire to live

- Perhaps I'm too old for this - No, you're not

But it's too late to discourage me

You lose

- What about your projects? - We'll have to wait till the war ends

It's just started

Have you thought about going back to the US?

Why not?

In any case, you're leaving next week, right?

Why?

Your room has been rented out

Julien, food is served!

Julien? What on earth are you doing here?

You look like baby Jesus

- I fell asleep - Inevitably

This is too much work for you

- Good God, your shoulders! - Everything hurts

You won't grow muscles by learning with the priests

There's still a lot to do

I'm used to it now

Touch here

Come on, don't be afraid. Hit hard

- I'm going to hurt you - You?

It would take more than that

No, keep it here

It makes me hot

Of course, it's softer here, but it doesn't have the same purpose

Don't be ashamed

It doesn't hurt

Open it if you like

Buttons are a pain, aren't they?

Especially the other way round

The nipple tickles

Easy!

Easy

It's not very solid

Kiss me

- Take my clothes off! - What?

Take my clothes off

Come on, do something

Don't leave me here like this

Can you turn round?

Why? Are you ashamed?

A bit

Hurry up then

Wait

Wait!

Goodness me!

You're fast!

Are you upset?

Not really

In the future, you don't need to be that emotional, Mr. Julien

- Man, it's coming down in buckets! - Tell me about it

- I was to clean the windows today - Well, forget about it

- Add sugar, it'll give him a boost - I'm soaked to the skin

Last batch of the season

And still no news of our men

I'm getting worried now

It's coffee grounds

It's good for the strength

- And that flower, is it for him? - Of course

- Mr. Julien is very delicate - That's true

Have you touched his skin?

He's still young. He will change

No, today is my turn

Yes, you are gorgeous!

Go and get me a plate

Right, five and two, seven

Mine, Place de la Bourse

26,000. You got nothing? Mortgage then

- Like auntie Agnes... - Come on, play

Five and two, seven... Avenue de Neuilly!

Are you crazy?

- Just a little bit - No

Come on, a little bit

All right

Six and two, eight

Avenue Mozart 18,000 plus a hotel...

That's 40,000

You don't have enough, I take all of this then

One and one, two

Chance

You're having repairs in all your houses...

All right, come on, it's your turn

Come on, play

Four and two, six

What's wrong with her?

What a bad loser!

Why do you care?

Little twerp!

I won't write. Between you and me, it's not worth it

Don't look so sad. I'm not going to war. I will come back, unlike others

Write to me

And behave

Shall I come with you to the station?

Well, answer Puone

He does what he wants. I can't stop him

Why are you so mean? I love you very much

Don't talk about love, do you hear me? Not to me

She's crazy!

- Behave. Bye - Bye. Write to us

- What are these for? - Ah, you found them!

It's for my workout

I've made an important decision

Have you?

I'm leaving with you. I've made up my mind

Is that OK?

I'll write to my mum once we're there

Once we're there? Where?

Well, wherever we'll go

I have my trousseau. I'll take it with me

You'll see, I thought everything through

- It looks like it - Don't make fun of me

I'm unhappy here

I won't be a burden, you'll see

I'll be your burden

I'm ill... done

I am

And I'm broke

I'm not scared of poverty

What do you know of poverty?

To you, poverty is having an empty stable...

or a dress that you wear several years

That's not real poverty

Look

- Look at this picture - That's you

I can tell

It was me

Women would steal from this man. He died in poverty

He was the funny one

He would imitate pigs when I was sad

He's an alcoholic and he's almost crazy

That was my husband

He sells water-heaters

That leaves this one

He's a multimillionaire and he's very powerful

Will he remember me?

What's the matter? Are you crying?

Leave her alone

- Nobody asked you - Excuse me?

- What did you dare say to her? - You heard me

You're crazy

So, now you're listening to me!

Don't touch me

I don't feel like it

You're ugly, you're disappointing

You're selfish, you're small

And to think I loved that!

I owe you one

I loved you. I counted your letters, I stole your hair clips

What a fool I was!

- Here! - Stop it, Julien

You're hurting me

Leave me alone

She's gone

I'm scared

Believe me, I'm scared too

Did you see those birds?

They go through continents without stopping

It must be great to glide through the sky like that

See the balloons?

Well, shall we go?

Will you give the Swiss blade back to me?

Of course, baby

Don't talk to me like that

OK, baby
