Original subtitles

Moron!

There's more where that came from!

You'll be out all night and I'll be stuck with him.

Want to have supper in St. Adele?

I'm dead, I'm dirty, my suit's at the cleaner's...

Got a cigarette?

No bra? That isn't how I brought you up

I broke a strap. The other one's in the wash.

The other strap?

Come on.

Move it, Ma!

I'll pay you back.

Get going!

What time?

Eight o'clock.

GOOD RIDDANCE

Move!

Not so fast.

You're chicken, aren't you?

Go ahead, get drunk, you pig...

It might cure you.

This wasn't here before, was it?

It was in a warehouse for 5 years.

Very original, a good idea.

This was intended for storage, not display...

But then I realized I was mad about birch.

I could see it there...

wrapped in its fragrant white bark.

The kindling and the big logs...

But not too big!

Rather like this. What do you think?

That would be very nice.

Look at her.

Licks with the freshest tongue in town.

One cord or two? - How much a cord?

Well, with the sorting and cording...

Around $35...

Then one will do.

All right, Mrs. Viau-Vachon.

If you know anybody... I mean if you have any friends...

Yes, certainly, I'll give them your name.

Michelle!

Michelle!

Just a minute!

Manon!

Let me finish this paragraph.

What do you wear when you've got nothing?

You're getting old, your skin is full of holes.

How long do I have to scrub?

Till there aren't any more holes, silly.

How old were you when you had me?

Eighteen.

Who were you going with?

Nobody, I was looking after your sick grandmother.

Why my grandmother? She was your mother.

Let me dry you, I like that.

Aren't you fed up looking after sick people?

Who's sick? Don't you feel well?

Ti-Guy!

That'll teach you to leave money lying around.

I wish he'd get drunk and smash into a tree!

I'm sick and tired of morons!

How do I look?

Ok.

You'd better clean up your room.

If you're not back by midnight, I'll lock the door.

Yes boss.

Did you clean out the tub?

Yes boss.

How do I look?

Like a bundle of nerves.

Don't you like it?

No, it's not that, it's Manon.

It's like she's got a crush on me.

She holds me or pushes me away, scolds me or caresses me.

You haven't stopped talking about your brother.

Don't start on your daughter now.

What else can I talk about? My millions?

They're all I have, Guy and Manon.

I'm no Viau-Vachon.

All my father left me was an old snowplow

and a half-paid house the bank would love to foreclose on.

And a good face and a nice butt.

And your mother? And the cancer that killed her?

Come on, tell me again.

Speaking of families...

Maybe it's not your business...

I've missed two periods and put on 4 pounds.

What do you mean?

Guess.

Those three days seemed very long to us

and often did little Cathy ask for her father.

Mrs. Earnshaw expected him by supper-time

and she put off the meal hour after hour.

Them it grew dark, and at last the children tired.

At 11 o'clock the door-latch was raised quietly

and in stepped the master.

What's the matter, sweetheart?

I can't get my panties on.

Want a hand?

Too late now.

What do you mean?

Guess.

Guess!

Get up, it's after midnight.

Get dressed, hurry up!

If you were nice you'd forget about Lake Barette

and come back to bed.

You'd sleep with your old Maurice

and give your mind a rest.

I'm worried about Ti-Guy.

If you don't come now I'm taking you car.

Nine left, plus the other 11... I owe you a pack.

Bye!

Ti-Guy!

Did they hurt you?

Did they hurt you, Ti-Guy?

What's wrong with you?

Fernand, help me.

You stink, what did you drink?

Wine. And a brandy.

And you didn't brush your teeth.

Ok, careful, That's it!

Great!

What are you waiting for? Hurry up!

Look at that! What's the kid doing here?

Her best. - On foot?

Better than on my hands.

No school?

Too boring. And you?

On my way to St J�r�me for a transmission.

Sounds like fun. - Come on then.

Hurry up, get in.

Got anything to smoke?

Roll-your-owns.

Can you roll this stuff?

Course! - Course what?

Sure. Give it! - Here.

I like going fast.

Does your mom?

Not so much gas, Ti-Guy

Put it in low and go slow.

Not so fast, Ti-Guy. Easy!

Stop it! Stop!

And I'm doing the pushing!

Get out and push.

Would you cut it out!

So, are you pushing?

Push, Ti-Guy!

Are you waiting for me to push you? Push, dammit!

Ti-Guy, you're getting on my nerves.

You'd have walked it? - Sure.

Must be a drag for such a fast girl.

Why do you laugh when you look at me?

I'm not laughing. Just smiling sadly.

I was wondering how it would be if I liked you.

And your mom?

She doesn't like anybody these days.

Does she like what she sees in the mirror?

Ask her yourself.

Good idea...

And your dad? - We don't need one.

Just your mother and the Holy Ghost?

And the chief? - Cops are deadbeats.

So all is well? - It's all right.

And Ti-Guy? - He's all right.

Princess? - Her too.

So everything's all right at Lake Barette?

Sure is!

Nobody misses me?

Nobody. Except me.

Watch it. With those eyes

you could cause an accident.

Go ahead, then.

Yeah? - Yeah.

I'll be damned!

Well, I'll be damned!

I found this on the road, is it yours?

And school? - Already know everything.

Just you wait, I'll show you. You'll know all right!

Out of my way.

Wait till I get my hands on you!

And you think it's funny?

I'm warning you, come here.

Manon, come here!

Have you got a jack?

I do, but depends on what you want to get up.

Let me go you animal!

There they go again.

Get him, Princess, bite him!

Goddamn dog!

That's enough now, mother's had her laugh.

Princess, come here.

Come here. Good dog.

Manon, look after the dog.

What do I owe you?

We jacked it up, it got stuck again, then we got it out.

What do you think it's worth?

You can pay later. - Sure

Clean this up!

Manon, come in, I want to talk to you.

What?

I'll tell you what.

Don't let Ti-Guy see the money.

I want you to talk to Mrs. Viau-Vachon...

and tell her to give you the money.

Understand?

What did I say?

I'm not a parrot.

What are you?

A precious pain in the ass, like you said.

Those were words of love.

So you do love me!

I love you to death.

Don't forget, $35. Count it.

I'll get it clean, for once!

Ti-Guy, come here!

Here, I said!

I'm warning you, come here or you'll be sorry.

Get back here!

Dr Gagnon, emergency ward...

What did the little rabbit say?

Doesn't it show?

She said no.

She said yes.

And you're glad? - I'm not glad, I'm happy!

Shit!

Bring me another. Make it two!

And a pack of Du Maurier for the lady.

I'm quitting. This will be my last one.

A beer for me too.

If i may...

Silly!

Give me a sip.

You pig!

Not for you, you're a pig.

Damn it!

I'll find a doctor. I've got the money.

Don't worry.

Don't you worry.

Eat.

You mean it's none of my business?

No, it's not your business.

Aren't I the father?

You're not the mother. It's my body.

Maybe you did it on purpose.

You figured, I already wasted half my life

so why not spend

the 10 good years I have left washing diapers?

Is that what you thought when you slept with me?

I only had dirty thoughts.

Be serious! Think it over.

In a few years you'll be free.

Manon will leave...

And Ti-Guy... You can't keep supporting him.

Is that being free?

Strange party, not many guests.

What are you waiting for?

Not for me, I hope.

Because you'll wait a long time.

I warned you not to take off.

You should have obeyed me.

Come in, my dear.

My mother told me to ask you, I mean...

Just sit down, I'm on the phone. Be right back.

That's right, rich bitch, run away.

I know you're unhappy, but I can't help you.

You want me to cry, to make you feel guilty...

Big love story...

Big music...

Big paintings...

Big books.

Fat cats, look at that!

Wuthering Heights

What would you like to drink, my dear?

Nothing, thanks. Really.

I like your books.

I read them as a child.

I bound them myself, they're nothing much.

Don't say that.

I won't say it again, I promise.

I was making hot chocolate, would you like some?

Stop whining about Ti-Guy!

You stop too!

Stop talking about putting him away.

Just cause he had meningitis, he still has a right to live.

A right to live, OK, but what about other people?

He gets drunk every other day, gets into fights...

and then races that old heap all over the roads

Everybody else does...

Turn that off! - No!

You can't scare me, you're just drunk.

Damn it!

Sometimes, during my lonely meditations...

I'd get up in sudden terror...

and go to see how all was at Wuthering Heights.

I felt it was my duty

to warm Hindley

of how people talked regarding his ways.

Watch it, you moron!

Damn it!

Be careful, you moron!

Stop!

I'm getting out!

Stop, right now!

Get out then! Get out!

What's wrong?

Don't cry.

Don't cry.

Don't worry, she'll be back.

Manon?

Yeah, yeah.

It's Ti-Guy's fault. He took the $35...

and threw me out of the truck.

Come here.

You don't care! Aren't you mad?

Come on in, you must be cold.

Let me hug you, I was so worried.

I'll run you a nice hot bath.

I'll scrub you and rub you dry.

Here Princess, come and see Manon.

Look, I've got a nice present for you.

I found it... on the road.

Come on and take your bath.

Good night.

G'night.

What's with you? - What do you mean?

You're all soft and dreamy. There's something funny...

Want me to stay?

No, I'm dead. Haven't slept all week.

Take the clock and pack you own lunch tomorrow.

I'll just stay a minute, don't worry...

I've heard that before...

Oh, for mercy's sake, said my mistress.

Let us hear no more of it now.

Your cold blood cannot be worked into a fever.

Your veins are full of ice water.

But mine are boiling

and they dance before such chilliness.

Where are you going?

For a walk.

Wait, I'll come too.

Let's go home.

Wait!

There's a beaver. He'll come back out.

Come on...

Let's hypnotize him with the flashlight.

Yes, boss.

You heard him too, Princess?

Tell her you heard him dive.

Tell her it made a big splash.

She won't believe me, she thinks I always lie.

Come on.

Here, Princess!

Mummy...

Mummy, I love you.

Lord, you must be tired...

I'd like to hear that some day when you're wide awake.

I wasn't laughing at you today, with Gaetan.

We smoked a joint and couldn't stop laughing.

Mummy...

I really love you. All the time. Even when it doesn't show.

You're so nice and beautiful.

I love you. Sometimes I dream we're shipwrecked.

We're all alone on a desert island.

Far away...

How about it?

Stop, you'll make me cry.

Turn that off.

I've got a secret too.

What is it?

I'm going to have a baby.

Don't make me sick! A baby?

A baby Maurice? A baby cop?

After what I just told you?

You make me sick!

Manon!

You make me sick!

Get up, breakfast is ready.

Ti-Guy, I fried some eggs and bacon. They'll get cold!

Manon?

What?

Can't I call you?

Do you know what day this is?

Yes.

And don't wish me Happy Birthday.

What's the matter?

Nothing.

I just wanted to talk to you.

Don't you want to talk?

Aren't you in school?

Were you kicked out?

Yes and no.

It was too hot.

The teacher was sick so he turned up the heat.

I couldn't stand it.

He had no right.

Did he?

Tell me what's wrong.

You'd rather sulk?

Answer me.

I can't help it if I'm unhappy.

Talk, then!

Well, think about it.

I have to wake up Ti-Guy for breakfast.

Come on, get up!

Think you can hold your fork?

Well?

Go on, eat!

Stop at the garage.

What's this?

This, my dear, to put it bluntly

is very old oil.

Very, very old oil.

You could even say it's oil that's outlived its time.

Sure. But what is this, $25 for jacking my truck?

What's the matter, my sweet?

On your high horse again?

Have to take you by force again?

If anyone's high, it's you. I'll wait till you come down.

Get me the boss!

I'm not stoned, baby. I don't touch dope, lady.

I just touch you! You! You!

And not just sometimes! All the time! It's high time!

Lucien, get the cops!

What?

While Miss Linton moped

about the park and garden

always silent and almost always in tears...

her brother shut himself up among books he never opened...

wearying, with a continual vague expectation...

that Catherine, repenting her conduct...

would come of her own accord to ask pardon...

and seek a reconciliation.

It's a high school.

The name of the school board?

Are there that many in St. Jerome?

I mean school boards?

What does it sound like? Give me an example.

Laurentides-Lanaudiere? No.

Try again. Maybe I'll remember when you say it.

You won't? When you say no, you mean no!

Well, if there weren't dopes like me

dopes like you would be out of work!

Lord, maybe I am a dope.

Hang in there, kid!

Jeez! You're hard to reach.

You're always gabbing or gadding...

Weren't you worried about me?

I'm listening.

Don't bother.

I don't mind talking to myself, I'm used to it.

I called so you wouldn't worry.

I'll wander around for a few hours

like a dog with no tag.

Then I'll go back and wait for the bus...

like a good little girl.

But I'm not a good little girl, am I?

You don't like me very much, do you?

Do you love me?

Not even a little bit?

If you don't, life's not worth living.

I want to know right now. Why don't you?

Don't try to soften me up.

Mummy

school's too hard.

I really hate it.

If you loved me

you'd keep me with you.

That wouldn't get you very far.

With you is as far as I want to go.

I'll look after you, you'll see.

I'll give you everything you need.

Where will you get it?

Depends on what you want.

If I can't earn it, I'll steal it. You don't believe me?

You too. If I can't have you, I'll steal you.

Steal me?

If I have to. I'll kidnap you.

You'd like that.

I'll take you out of your hole and hide you

someplace

where nobody else can get you or take advantage of you

or make you do things you don't like.

Where? In my grave?

In my heart.

Ok...

You've got me all upset now. Are you happy?

Don't say that, you shouldn't be sad.

All right, that's enough now.

Come home now.

I kiss you, with all my love.

I'll see you later.

See you.

Yeah.

You hang up first.

See you.

See you.

She makes you cry and you want to buy her a present.

He's gone crazy!

You didn't expect that, did you?

What do you say? Won't she be surprised?

It's too much, it's too expensive...

Never mind, no problem.

Three-speed, look at that!

First...

second...

and third!

And look at this, brakes on both wheels!

Christ!

Madame!

What are you doing here?

I'm going to get your cousins.

Wait, I'll come too.

Happy Birthday!

Won't you open it? - Won't you kiss me?

Don't you want to hug me? Weren't you worried?

I bought you some clothes, go try them on.

Not now, I'm going with Maurice.

Manon, don't try leading me by the nose.

Even if I did you wouldn't follow

Turn around.

A bit short, no? You don't like anything.

I don't like my panties to show. - What's wrong with them?

Don't you mind if people see?

You'll be on the market soon, start advertising.

Now you look like a real little girl.

I'm advertising. You interested?

What are you doing here?

Madame!

Go away.

The collar...

The collar...

Don't be scared.

Don't be scared!

You're getting warm, Manon.

Getting really hot!

Cooler now...

Now you're freezing. You're ice.

I've found it! I've found it!

What is it?

A bicycle!

Dearest Manon...

it's your big day...

to speak of love.

Dearest Manon

it's your big day

to speak of love.

Yes, Mme Viau-Vachon.

I understand, but he can't help it!

Yes, Mme Viau-Vachon.

Police? Why the police?

I know, but he's just like a child.

Yes, Mme Viau-Vachon.

What collar?

What?

Yes.

I'm sorry but it's none of your business.

I am being polite, I said I was sorry!

So, how's it going?

How do you expect? - What's wrong?

I'm fed up with morons.

Aren't you proud of your bike?

You're proud enough for both of us.

I'd have been a lot prouder

if I�d given you the moon.

But, with progress, maybe you'll go there

on your bike some day.

Don't upset your mother, come have a hot dog.

I don't like hot dogs.

You must be the only one in the family.

Strange tastes in this family.

Some even like fatty old ham.

Ok...

hang in there.

Hang in there

and keep it up!

Here. - I'm not hungry.

You don't want a hot dog, or a bike or school.

What do you want? - Nothing.

Where's the collar?

The one you stole?

Answer me!

What about what I said on the phone? Answer me!

I bet you don't even remember.

What you want is a good hiding, but you won't get it.

What an old...

What's the matter with you?

Tell me what I've done.

Why are you so heartless?

Didn't you hurt me enough on the phone?

Didn't it show enough when you came home?

What is it?

Nothing.

Tell me! Tell me or I'll beat it out of you!

What is it?

I can't tell you. - Tell me.

It's Maurice.

Maurice? What?

He touched me.

What do you mean? When?

This afternoon, in his car.

Tell mummy where he touched you.

You can't?

I'm going crazy! Tell me it isn't true!

It's true, I swear.

What's the matter?

I'll kill you!

If you don't get out of here, I'll hit you so hard...

that the filth in your head will blow sky-high!

What's the matter with you? - Get out!

You've gone too far!

What did I do?

Get out! Scram!

You filthy animal!

You don't have to be so rough!

He puked all over the car. Keep him at home.

Manon!

Manon, help me!

What are you doing?

And you? Are you coming?

Manon! Manon!

Manon, it's late, the bus is gone! Hurry, I'll drive you.

You didn't sleep all night, you're a wreck.

Relax!

Come back to bed, I'll take care of you.

You'll see how I'll take care of you.

God, you're a drag.

I can't get into my pants any more.

I'll get a cold.

A cold isn't all you'll get!

Turning off the alarm behind my back...

Swearing and slapping, slapping and swearing...

She's only happy when it hurts.

You're the one who should go to school.

Shut your trap. Get a pin.

It's a mouth, not a trap.

The more pain you bear, the better you feel.

Some philosophy!

If I'd gone to school I'd know better.

You'd know you have to suffer to succeed. Big deal.

God, what a windbag!

I'd rather be a windbag than an old bag.

Can't you go any faster?

Cold air heating!

What a pain!

Aren't you sick of this old heap?

I know a girl whose mother caught a rich guy...

he bought her a Cobra for her birthday.

What?

This girl I know, her mother caught a real rich guy.

And he bought her a great sports car.

Wouldn't you like a car like that?

You're beautiful, you could find a rich guy...

and ask him for a sports car.

We could go out together.

We could drive like the wind.

And then we'd have a terrible accident

with lots of blood.

Your blood would flow into mine on the road

and a flower would grow out of it.

A magic flower that couldn't be cut or crushed.

Wouldn't you like that?

Damn it!

It's not an accident, but it's better than nothing.

I'll get you to school, on my back if I have to.

There's no more room on your back.

It's nice here.

Why not stay here?

Why not forget everything, just lie down

and waste away, very slowly?

Let's be different, just for once.

You know, you've got no spare.

Your know, that's a big hole there.

It's a blow-out.

You can't fix a blow-out.

Can you fix a big mouth?

There's two of us, that's what scares them.

They'd stop right away if you were alone.

Manon, are you having a depression?

Manon, is your stomach

in regression?

How do you feel?

Are you chocking

on your meal?

Is life an ordeal?

Or do you want some peanuts to peel?

Want some gum? Is that why you're so glum?

Should I put a bullet through my head?

No, don't answer.

I'd be dead!

Me, run a motel?

Why not?

It's not that hard.

Think it over.

If you're interested, just give me a call.

No, let him do it, it's his job.

It's his fault.

Well, then...

All right, I'll wait for your call.

We'll see.

We'll see, as you say.

See you.

Yes, maybe.

I won't go to school. Don't try to force me.

I'm a slow learner.

I've been marked by an unhappy childhood.

Wait till I get my hands on you!

Why do you have to follow me around?

It's my new technique to get you back...

my lovely treasure of love.

Manon, get out!

I'm going to hound you.

I'm going to keep it up

till you're mine again...

my lovely gold mine of love.

Are you going to school?

No!

We don't have enough.

I knew she's stop here.

You'll be ok?

Sure. Just leave me some cigarettes.

Haven't got any. Be right back.

There's a radio, with four speakers.

Put this on.

I don't need it. You'll be right back?

Absolutely.

Stupid queer!

What have you got against men?

Sure, stick up for your own kind.

Two men down!

You and Lucien never liked women

Three men down! We've lost another round.

You're two of a kind.

All you want is a broad

a broad you both can share and torment.

And believe me, that's queer!

You're not a broad, you're feathery and light.

You're an angel. I want to swing from your wing.

I'd be on a cloud if you weren't so proud.

I'm a broad and you know it.

You've been on the wagon too long, it shows.

Frustrating, isn't it? - Why?

I was more of a broad when I drank.

Bottoms up and panties down.

We really had fun.

But I bet those angels had even more fun...

like Manon and Ti-Guy.

Cause angels have eyes and ears, you know.

Go ahead, feel guilty.

If you feel guilty, you suffer

and then you feel better.

You queer!

Come on, let's keep moving.

Come on, Guy.

Be a good boy.

You still here? - Looks like it.

Here...

How are you making out?

She fears I'm a queer.

Jeez, she's really in high gear!

Aren't you cold?

I'm burning!

I've been waiting for two hours.

Got a light?

Here...

Want to wait in the car?

I'll turn on the heater.

No. I'd rather stay here.

If she thinks she's punishing me

I've got news for her.

How did it go? - Just great!

She must be mad.

Just a tad. It's not cold enough.

She'd rather freeze to death.

She'll be the death of me.

Find something good, I feel like dancing.

Remember?

You call that dancing?

What are you thinking about?

I love you, baby, I love you.

Come on.

Don't you want to?

You never regretted it before.

I never remembered from one time to the next.

You can't say you don't want to.

Everybody feels like it

But not everybody has

the opportunity.

You're lucky, you've got me.

I'm offering myself.

Some guys come on with a Beetle...

some come on with a big Cordoba.

Not only do I feel like it, I have a choice.

There! You just said it! "I feel like it".

What's a woman do when she feels like it?

Leave me alone. I can drive.

No you can't.

Sure I can. - No you can't.

Why not? I've been driving this truck for years.

OK, go ahead, break your neck.

You're in my way!

So, how's business?

I'm investing. Half my pay, already.

So?

She's hungry, that'll be another $20.

And I'm not sure it's going to pay off.

Wait a few years. I'll pay you back.

I told you they'd throw us out.

You never listen to me!

Coming? - No.

Are you going to go to school? - Depends on you.

Why do you always treat me like this?

Why do you always hurt me? Do you like it?

Do you like toying with my feelings?

Do you want me to hit you? Do you want me to hurt you?

Is that what you want?

Don't cry, mummy, don't cry.

Stop it!

Stop, mummy!

I'll never hurt you again, never.

Never, never.

Never, never.

Real great steaks, huh?

Don't you like it?

Yes, but I'd rather keep it for Princess.

She likes it more than me.

Why'd you order it?

This is getting expensive... girls who don't feel like it.

Be right back.

Big night on the town, boys?

I'll bet you haven't had supper.

Come on...

Want some?

What about me?

It feels like snow. - Sure does.

Know what I'd like? - No, what?

To go skating. - Yeah!

Let's go! Just the three of us!

No, Ti-Guy and Fernand haven't eaten.

God, they're half drunk.

We can't just leave them.

You're such a drag!

Look at Ti-Guy.

Don't ask me to look at him.

Is that how you're never going to hurt me again?

Where's Ti-Guy?

Taking a leak, or gone to have a beer.

Have you seen Ti-Guy? - No.

Go get the keys of the truck.

On skates? - Do it, now!

Where are you going?

I'm not going.

Why don't you go?

Are you scared?

Why? Haven't you drunk enough? Drink!

You're got a whole case.

You're brave when you're drunk. Then you take off.

What are you staring at? Don't you like my face?

Why don't you go if you don't like my face?

Beat it, you god dam bastard!

Where is he? - He was gone.

It's not my fault, he was already gone.

I distinguished Mr. Heathcliff's step

restlessly measuring the floor...

and he frequently broke the silence

by a deep inspiration, resembling a groan.

You're not listening!

Yes, I am.

If you'd close your eyes and listen, you'd sleep.

Honest you would.

That's how queens used to go to sleep in the olden days.

And they had a lot worse problems than you.

He muttered detached words.

The only one I could catch was...

My heart is acting up.

Listen to me.

Listen to me, close your eyes.

You'll be all right.

I lingered round those graves under that benign sky...

Watched the moths fluttering

among the heath and hare-bells...

She doesn't want to talk to you.

Manon, something happened to Guy.

Something very bad, something terrible.

A tragedy.

She doesn't want to talk to you.

I'm listening, have you finished?

I listened to the soft wind rustling the grass

and wondered how anyone

could ever imagine unquiet slumbers

for the sleepers in that quiet earth.

Mummy?

Yes, my love?

I've finished.

Goodnight.
