He is a guy who just got out of jail.

Desperate to meet the woman he has never seen,

but who’s been writing to him for months.

He says it is thanks to her that he has held out.

Except that she is an intellectual, a bit of a snob,

and uptight as hell, especially when she is emotional.

For her, writing to a convict

was a literary exercise that made her giggle.

But now that he is free, she is afraid to meet him.

But at the same time, she is fascinated by his story.

Because what has to be said,

and where it all makes sense, is that…

The guy got eight years for a crime of passion.

For her, crime of passion is something that no longer exists.

It's so outdated that it's inconceivable nowadays.

So, it will be a clash of the titans between them.

She is going to prove to him that he is finally free,

and he is going to force her to reveal how she feels about him.

They may be opposites,

but they will end up finding each other.

So, what happens? When does your story start?

My story is here.

You are not making my life any easier.

If I were honest, I would tell you there is no point in that.

And since I know nothing about cinema…

I would tell you it's not a script for me.

- Is that okay with you? - Explain.

You know what I expect from a screenplay, that it can fix the situation.

I don't want to be told a story

or hear dialogues.

So, what should be in your scripts?

You know, funny situations,

slightly sexy settings.

Two, four, six, eight, and I have got the money, and that is it!

You don't want anything else?

A film where we are all a bit ourselves?

No!

Something made with three francs and six cents, I am tightening my belt!

I would be delighted to please you, but the answer is no.

I am asking you for 300,000 francs. That is nothing!

A traditional film costs no less than 200,000. I am asking for 300,000!

You cannot lose money.

You even have a chance to get ten times more.

Listen, my little Kubrick darling. I have been in the shit for 15 years.

You know what I'm doing with your 300,000?

”Slut” and ”Submissive 2,” and ”Susana the Three-Seater.”

- Hello. - Plus, I am paying stars.

You know it, I know it, we all know it.

So, why bother?

Julien just called, he's on his way.

I made an appointment with Richard in an hour for a threesome.

When are you shooting the boat scene?

- Tomorrow. - Tomorrow?

Don't pout!

- What do you call it, your thing? - ”Heart at Work.”

Well, yes, ”Heart at Work…”

- What is going on? - Nothing, everything is fine.

Hey! That is crazy.

Guess how long it took me to find a place?

Who cares, Julien. Get ready. Do you know what time it is?

Seriously?

How are you, my boy?

- Yes, I was fine. - Go on, hurry up…

What is the camera doing here?

- No, put it back where it was. - There! There!

- Mathieu, bring back the combo. - Given the time, it is not essential.

Can you unscrew the bed, Eric?

Unscrew it on this side.

- On this side? - Unscrew it, Eric!

She is off to a good start today.

We have to call the journalist again.

Let's get going! We are not early, guys!

Places, everyone!

- Chloé! - I am coming!

- Julien, are you ready? - Yes, I am coming!

- I am coming. - It's a bit cold, isn't it?

Shall we make the connection?

It's a bit cold. Can we turn up the heating a bit?

We can turn up the heating! It will last an hour.

I will be naked in a minute.

Get my nail. I lost my nail.

- Julien! - Yes?

- Let's go, please. - Here we go.

Well, what about me?

- You are fine. - You are?

Shall we set it up?

Are you alright, beautiful? Is it cold?

Let's go. Should we tie him up?

Chloé, you are on him. Come on!

Quiet, let's go!

Action, Chloé!

Get on top of him, good.

- Julien, penetrate her. - Yes, that's good!

That's good. Lift your knees a little bit, Chloé.

A little more… Stop!

Perfect.

Caress your breasts with both hands.

There you go, that's very good.

That is very good.

Tell me, Bruno, when will I be invited to a shooting?

Roger!

What is wrong with that? It's just eye candy.

It is better to see such films

than to do dirty things in the street.

I hear that the rate of rape is much higher in countries

where there are no porno films.

For once, I wish I had done something else.

What is stopping you?

We have been over this a hundred times. I am fed up with it.

I would rather be a good porn director than a bad one elsewhere.

You are convinced you are bad. And you have never tried anything else.

Yes. I have, with my graduation short film.

- You see. - That was 15 years ago.

Anyway, I will never get the money.

Look for a production company!

Would you trust a porn director?

Never!

What makes you think Bruno would be comfortable

in another genre?

What are you getting into?

You cannot go against your vocation, my girl.

When you feel good somewhere, you have to stay there.

I think your father is right.

If you fought a little.

There is no solution. We have already tried everything.

You just have to give in.

So, you give up?

You are right. It's easier.

Since that is how it is, I am the one who will bust my ass.

Read!

Did you not do a shoot today?

- What if I did? - You are not tired?

I want you anyway.

Hello, you have reached Sophie and Julien.

We will call you back. Ciao!

Hi, you two. It's dad.

Sophie, I wanted to know if you could come and pick me up tomorrow at the clinic,

because I have finally decided to get my foot warts operated on.

So I will not be able to walk.

If you don't mind. You remember me?

It was your dad.

Stop it Julien, I can't.

What?

You can't do what?

I don't know if it's the dad, clinic or foot wart,

but I can't do it anymore.

Good…

What should I say with ten guys around me,

making comments while eating sandwiches?

I am not a professional.

I don't get it.

Usually when you do a shoot, especially at the end of the month…

You bastard!

- Stop it! - Bastard!

- Bastard! - Stop it!

What an asshole!

I'm ovulating, you know?

Admit it!

But no…

- Don't be angry. - Will you stop it?

We have been trying for three years and it is not working.

Tardieu says we have a five percent chance.

And five percent is not zero.

I am fed up with the phony tests, treatments and false hopes.

I'm sick of having sex because some lousy egg has decided

to show up every 25th day of the month.

- But no, it is one day for another. - No, you know that very well.

One day, while you were shooting in Italy,

you even flew home and back.

I wanted you.

Besides, being persistent is free.

Right?

Listen, Julien.

I am sterile.

That is all.

Do you want me to tell you how I feel?

- How I really feel? - Yes.

It is not as dramatic as that.

I am 30 years old and I have a job I am passionate about.

Maybe it's tragic that I do not have a kid,

but for now, I don't care.

You're adorable for wanting to have a child with me.

When you insist, I feel like a cripple.

So, let me suffer later. Will you?

You know I never thought so.

But if you feel the need, I would never deny you.

What does that mean?

If you want to have a kid, have it with whoever you want.

But make up your mind right now.

I will never hold it against you.

That is great, we got him.

- Shall we sit here? - Yes, come on.

Noëlle?

Noëlle!

- Is that you, Joëlle? - How are you?

How long has it been?

Eight or ten years, I don't know.

Last time I heard about you was from your mother.

She had sent her greetings to me.

She said you had gone to school in New York.

It was Chicago. It was over three years ago.

At the time, you wanted to go to ENA or Polytechnic.

I went to Polytechnic.

And what do you do?

- My job? - Yes!

I work in the film industry.

Tell me about it.

I am an actress.

That is great!

Chloé! You love it, bitch?

It is not the life of a star every day.

Do you have time for coffee?

Where would we go?

Let's find some little bar around here, okay?

Sure.

Chloé! I will have you, I will have you!

- Good one! - You know you are better in person?

That math examiner, do you remember?

Yeah. You cut your hair like Louise Brooks, just like me,

and you went in with my ID, remember?

- How much did I get you? - I do not know anymore, 17 or 18?

That is how I got it.

At the time, you were with that big guy who played hockey.

- Jérémy? - That one.

I don't know what happened to him.

I think he went back to Canada. I never saw him again.

It is a pity.

And you, you're quiet. You have someone?

- I might. - Tell me about it.

His name is Marc. He is the youngest deputy in France.

He is on his way to an extraordinary political career.

I love him.

When is the wedding?

We hardly know each other, you know.

We will see.

Tell me more about you.

I am sure there is plenty of actors

as handsome as gods!

You do not think so.

- No loverboys? - Lots, yes.

But you are not saying anything. What films have you been in?

- I may have seen some, you know. - I doubt it.

Tell me at least one.

We always told everything to each other,

I am not going to lie to you today.

I am an actress in X-rated films.

Pornographic films, if you prefer.

Yes, I see.

I do this without shame or glory.

I make a living out of it, and quite well.

You mean, in front of the camera you have sex…

With a man?

Sometimes with several.

- How did you… - How did I get here?

It was a few years ago.

I was living with a guy who wanted to experiment,

and I was not against it.

One day, we made a home video,

and we made some money.

We were unemployed, and I got more offers. That is it.

Does your mother know?

She found out eventually.

Would you take something else?

- I have no time, I have to go. - Already?

We can meet again. Give me your number.

I have to go.

- You will never guess who called me. - No.

The Brazilian girl, what is her name?

- Mercedes. - Mercedes Lopez!

The one who made Susana, the foursome girl.

She went to the States for a surgery.

Not sure what they have done to her arse,

But they made her three anuses!

No!

I swear!

TITLE OF THE FILM: THE HEART AT WORK

- Author? - Bruno Markham. K. H.

Specify ”author and director.”

- Do you need a CV? - No.

No CV?

However, I need the name of a production.

Production…

You do not have a producer? How do you want to edit the film?

Yes, a production… ”Harder Production.”

- A-R-D-E-U-R? - No, H-A-R-D-E-R.

Here.

Very good.

You will receive a reply within eight days.

6TH CABOURG ROMANTIC FILM FESTIVAL 1998

- That is crazy. - Why?

Come on.

You are funny because I find you really puritan.

It happens every day.

It is not puritan, it is realistic.

- A sperm bank? - Several, if I have to.

- An anonymous donor? - Listen, Bruno.

Try to imagine how many girls I have slept with

in the twelve years I have been doing this job.

A few hundred?

Eight hundred and forty-five. And on average, about ten times with each one.

Not counting the night with Sophie.

I read

that one ejaculation has 20 to 40 million sperms.

That is billions and billions.

I could have repopulated entire continents.

The tragedy is that

of all those billions of sperm, not one of them met an egg.

Not one.

Do you think that is normal?

Well… When you put it like that, no.

Do you want me to tell you?

It is strange to say this, considering my job,

but there is something immoral about firing so many shots for nothing.

Julien, what does morality have to do with it?

Wanting a child is as old as time.

But you are not going to make things any better

by going to a bank to jerk off.

I have no other solution.

I love Sophie. I want to grow old with her.

But she cannot have children.

So, if a woman somewhere is impregnated with my sperm,

there will be a little being carrying my genes.

And just to feel it, to imagine it,

to know that it exists, well,

I think it could make me happy for the rest of my life.

And it will never come out of there.

- Are you having another drink? - Yes.

Tell me, Bruno.

Am I a complete idiot?

Yes.

Can I help you?

Yes, I am looking for a tape, but I only have the name of the actress.

- Say it again. - Joëlle Le Grignan.

That is not the name of a hardcore actress. It does not ring a bell.

Look in there. I have the best in Europe.

You will surely find something you like.

No…

ANNA'S TEMPTATIONS

CHLOÉ'S WHIMS

- That is her. - That is Chloé Davina.

A porn star.

Are you taking this, or looking at it in the booth?

- No, I just want to take a look. - Alright.

It is a hundred francs.

That is a lot of money!

Thank you.

I told you not to come anymore.

Cabin 16!

You know you are pretty as a picture?

What is the good stuff you are hiding under?

What did I say? That it is big!

Ask your friends to come here

instead of looking at us through the keyhole.

-What is your name? -José-Luis.

-What is yours? -Kevin.

-What is yours? -I am Ricky.

You are superbly built, my little bastards!

Chloé! Look!

Look!

I do not believe it! You are the Méliès of porn.

- Look what he invented! - Come on, film me.

Come on. A little lower.

Hold on. It is great!

-Pass it to me. -Wait, do not move.

He has another one. Raoul? Give him the other one.

- He will give you the other one! - But I want it now!

He will give you the other one!

Can you see me? Great.

Françoise and Bruno are waiting for you at the studio.

Françoise and Bruno are waiting for you!

Hurry up!

- I am going with… - Hey, calm down!

- Do not put it away, I… - Let's go, come on!

- Do not tidy up, there. - Come on!

You are finally going to produce a film you can show to your kids.

My kids do not really shy away from my films.

Can you imagine, ”Françoise Masson presents Sunday nights at 8:50 p.m.”

That would be a change.

Take a seat, please.

Champagne!

Champagne!

Children, I have great news. We are going to make a film.

We make ten a year!

No, I am talking about a real film, like in the cinema.

Have you been drinking or something?

We have received a 400,000 Euro grant.

We are opening the Cabourg Romantic Film Festival.

Françoise Masson presents: ”Heart at Work.”

I want you to play the two main roles.

Wait.

What do you mean by ”film”?

A traditional film.

You mean, a real movie? A film without…

- Without a single sex scene! - No way!

But with incredible sensuality.

If this is a joke, I will go.

We have a script ready to shoot,

we have the money, a team and great actors!

- What actors? - Him!

You, for Christ's sake!

- What is this story about? - Bruno…

I do not want to be annoying, but I hate being made fun of.

Is it not a bit crazy to offer it to us?

We don't ask anything from you.

Why don't you use real actors?

They are all unemployed. That is why I am doing X-rated films.

And also because…

Who do you think you are? We make porn films all year round,

and now you want to make art?

Pathetic.

- Do not take it like that! - This movie is not for us.

You two will soon realize that.

Good luck anyway.

We may show our genitals,

but, at least, we have some dignity left.

Julien! Chloé!

It is a pity.

But we have plenty of others like them.

- No, we do not. - Yes, we do.

- Not like them. - Yes, like them.

Beer!

On the house!

A tradition for those who get out.

Jeanne?

No.

No, cut! What is the matter with you, honey?

Cut!

- That is… - Yes, she knows!

You are Jeanne, so you say ”yes.”

It is not complicated, ”yes” instead of ”no.”

It is the first time Jeanne meets François

who has just been released.

She preferred to wait at the café, to delay meeting him.

It is not complicated.

Let's do it again!

- Bruno? - Yes!

- Is it not too much, two beers? - No, he is thirsty!

He just got out of jail, and has not had a drink for eight years.

- How is the move going? - Just fine.

Very good, very good. Let's do it again. Quiet!

Let's set up.

Silence!

Okay!! Roll!

- Camera is rolling. - Announcement!

”The Heart at Work,” take 31/3, third.

No, cut!

What a job!

A tradition for everyone who gets out.

Jeanne?

No, cut!

- What is wrong with her now? - I don't know.

She did the same thing on ”Anal Total.”

She stuffed herself with biscuits in the control room.

That is for sure.

You should stop binging on biscuits.

On the house. A tradition for people who get out.

Thank you.

Chloé?

- Shit! - No, damn it!

Let's get back in place! No, do not cut it!

Take your glass. Watch out!

Action!

On the house, it is a…

- She is laughing, cut! - What?

Chloé?

I will leave you to it. Think about what we said.

You are confused, and at the same time, defending yourself…

Julien, give him the look. It is when you want, let's…

We have… time.

Okay.

You can make it with the voice…

With the voice…

Do not bother. What I want is for you to be on the edge of tears.

Let's go.

Okay?

Action.

I am crazy to come all the way out here.

You wanted to see the beast, that is only human.

You were looking for a woman to write to,

I just wanted to pass the time.

It is better than knitting. It makes you feel useful.

Do not be cynical with me. I am ”out” of pri--

No, again.

Do not be cynical with me.

I got out of jail.

Cut, shit!

- This wasn't my fault, damn it! - I know it wasn't.

And who came up with this stupid dress?

It is squeezing my tits. It is my best feature, my tits.

It suits you.

When I think of those bitches who have it done! Fucking hell!

It is hard to work in these conditions.

- The whims of stars… - It suits you.

I have to think of everything? Who can I count on?

I can't do everything. The mermaid, the dress, the actors…

- Who found her this dress? - It's my mother's dress.

It squeezes her breasts. She cannot act, she is right!

If she cannot act, she can't act, that's it!

We cannot connect, I don't have enough light.

Since the morning, I kept saying I needed an HMI.

Do you think I am MGM?

- Lorraine, what are we doing now? - Well…

Next plan. The change of plan, now.

Places, everyone! Let's do it again right now.

- Come on! Chloé, are you okay? - I am sorry.

It is okay. That is your point of view.

I am sorry too.

It's the first day, we're all a bit angry.

We are not nervous on the first day.

You do not get nervous on Day One. We are straight, let's go. Enough.

- Come on, let's go. - Roll.

Boulette?

There is no Boulette.

This is Armel, from Hot Vidéo.

We want to do a story on you after the release of ”Fuck Demonia”.

Call me back. Bye.

Hello, it is Benoît.

We can manage the move, on Saturday the 18th, if you can.

Kisses.

Hello, Joëlle?

Listen, I was completely stupid the other day.

I would like to see you again. Sorry, I reacted badly, but…

We have not talked for a long time.

I would like to invite you to lunch at the Palais Royal restaurant.

I will see you on Thursday.

Call me at the office if there is a problem.

Do you mind if I call you Joëlle?

”Chloé,” I don't think I will ever get used to.

You'll be the only one.

- Your parents, right? - No, they don't call me anything.

Madame, a 1990 Château La Tâche

from Domaine de la Romanée-Conti.

I asked for a 1988.

It's not that bad.

- I am glad we are meeting again. - So am I.

You had the courage to be honest with me.

And now…

I think I am the one who is afraid.

Is something wrong?

The reason I called you was not just to see you again.

I don't know how to talk about this.

It's not serious, at least?

Did I tell you about Marc?

The youngest deputy in France? The one who is crazy about you?

He is not crazy about me.

- You told me it was serious? - I lied, he wants to leave me.

He will do it right. Everything by the book.

He will tell me he is not good enough for me,

that his job will eventually drive us apart…

He is just not going to use the state's interest.

I don't get it. You're beautiful, brilliant, and have everything.

What is wrong?

The sex.

- Do you freeze up? - No.

I do not know…

Let's say I don't know how to do anything special.

You mean you just let it go? Hands crossed?

After a while, he pulled away, he…

Came by hand?

Listen, I am 26 years old, I have a degree,

I am a project manager at the Ministry of Finance.

In two years, I will be the Secretary of State.

Believe me, I did not sleep my way to that position.

I have other things to do.

Fucking is not my thing!

Dear, you have to like it if you want it to work out.

That is the way it is.

I am sure it will work out. Do not worry.

You just have to talk about it.

You know, in this field, patience is the only thing that counts.

You'll see, it'll get better.

You think. I am going to leave him with a memory of cold meat.

Everyone in Paris will think I am like a pile of sand.

In my line of work, that is unforgivable.

I want to teach that bastard a lesson.

A lesson in what?

Do you have a family history?

Did your parents have any particular illnesses?

No, they are in great shape.

My grandparents still run their farm in Cantal.

Drinking problems?

My father drank a glass of champagne on my wedding day, but that is about it.

- So, you are married? - And happily so, for five years.

How often do you have sex?

It is purely medical.

Four, five…

- A month? A week? - A day.

- A day? - On average…

That's it. One last question.

Why do you want to donate your sperm?

To be of service.

I cannot think of any other answer.

My wife has agreed.

Alright. Go into the booth across the hall,

and give us a sample of your sperm,

so that we can do the analysis.

Okay.

Magazines are in the drawer.

GIVING LIFE

- Is there anything wrong with you? - No.

When do I come back for the results?

Monday at 10:00 a.m.

Alright. Thank you. Bye.

Bye.

This cannot be true!

Martinaud made such a fuss, and, thanks to him,

I gained three points in the polls. That idiot!

You know he is a childhood friend of Leroy-Burrel?

The one from Sopatec, who has just been indicted?

- That one. - Really?

If we play it smart with the centre-left press,

we can knock him out in less than six months.

- Give me a hand. - Give me that.

You are exactly the one I would have needed.

And I am exactly the one who would have made you miserable.

Yes, you are.

So, ”good friends,” when you have not found anyone better?

Good friends.

- But can it wait until dawn? - Yes, it can!

Hello, Martine? Yes, it is me. Are you awake?

Good. You are going to do me a favor.

Call me back in an hour on my cellphone.

I said in an hour, Martine.

Tell Patrick to pick me up at the Lutetia twelve minutes later.

I cannot explain. I simply cannot.

I do not know, make yourself a strong coffee!

And…

And…

That is a reason to call me at this hour!

Martine, I don't know…

Make me a copy of the Indigo file, and…

A little information about the municipality.

The usual stuff! Martine, get a grip!

And do not bother me again unless it is an emergency.

It is a nightmare, I am surrounded by idiots.

My poor darling.

- I will be back in a minute. - Okay.

Oh la la…

Put your coat there.

Quiet.

Not bad, is it?

Perfect.

Do not forget, you must not say anything.

Okay.

Be brave.

Go on.

I will keep the best from you.

Your warmth…

Your sweetness…

And above all…

Another scotch, please.

Hold on, please.

Sir, it is Martine.

Patrick is waiting for you outside the hotel as we agreed.

Sir?

Emphasis is definitely not on the trunk,

contrary to what you might think.

Take Fresnay, for example. Pierre Fresnay.

A headstrong voice, a very small figure, but still

listen to him talk with Von Stroheim in ”La Grande Illusion”.

It is wonderful. And ”Capitaine de Boëldieu,

I say 'You' to my mother, and 'You' to my wife.”

I say 'you' to no one.” Do you see the presence?

- Sorry. - Come in, sit down. Quickly, quickly.

Go back to ”hidden near these parts, I will see you, madam.”

with fewer decibels and a little more emphasis.

Go ahead.

”Hidden near these parts, I shall see you, madam.”

Tall right, softer.

Hiding near these parts…

You're not asleep?

No. I was waiting for you.

When the TT&B rep started their catchy market sketch,

I thought it would never end.

Is that decaf?

I will have some.

You know, Sophie.

You are beautiful like a natural disaster.

- Sorry? - You are beautiful like an avalanche.

An avalanche is beautiful.

A cataclysm, a tidal wave, a hurricane, an earthquake!

I feel all that when I see you.

Sophie, you are beautiful like a natural disaster.

You scared me.

Which sequence is it?

It is the 14th.

Ask me to make you repeat it, it will be easier.

Where did you put the script?

What was wrong?

The tone? Tell me.

Maybe a bit too much emphasis at this time of night?

You think?

Emphasis?

Well…

Take Fresnay, for example.

A very small man, a headstrong voice.

Listen to him talk to Stroheim in ”La Grande Illusion”.

Why are you laughing? It's true.

Anyway, Pierrot, it was me who…

Tell them to be careful with the frescoes, please.

I hope nothing's on the bed.

That is not our style, who do you think we are?

Careful Lorraine, I am counting on you.

No! Please, what is this?

We said no smoking, no drinking, no eating inside the castle.

I assure you we will be careful.

You are fatal!

Turn it to me.

You put a flag on me here, and you get that shadow off the wall.

It is perfect for me. Silence!

Let's set up for a rehearsal. Manu?

We'll do it after the make-up. That's good, Thierry, that's perfect.

Manu, slowly. Manu! She always puts too much.

Get out of the field, get out of the light! I'm sorry.

Chloé, sweetheart. Chloé?

Okay, come in like we said. Pretend nothing happened.

Julien, come in,

and then,

be in ecstasy.

This scene has been bothering me from the start.

What is wrong?

I find it suspicious that this woman takes me to a room like this,

but she has no money to pay.

It is not for sex, damn it!

He's a recently released convict,

she's rich so she finds him a place to sleep!

That is tendentious.

Chloé, what's your line when you walk in?

”It wasn't Versailles every day where you're from.

You've got to catch up on some luxury.

I thought you might like a room like this.”

Suspicious and useless.

It is beautiful because it is useless, and it is ambiguous!

Instead ”Versailles”, it is better to say ”life in the castle”.

That would give

”It wasn't life in the castle every day, where you come from.”

- Sounds better, right? - Right.

- Bruno! - Yes?

Françoise just called.

We have to find someone else to play the convict's mother.

The one we had is worn out. She is at the spa in Perros-Guirec.

Sorry.

What is wrong with him?

Bruno?

Bruno?

- Frankly, it is better, right? - Yeah, it is. Of course it's better.

- What now? - Hello. I am Bruno Markham.

I need to speak to you.

You are Madeleine Larrieux?

I have nothing left. I sold the ”Limoges and the Laliques”.

You must be mistaken. I am a film director.

Really?

I am a lifelong fan.

As a student, I had pictures of you all over my room.

You must have heard that a lot.

Yes, but a long time ago.

I could talk to you for hours, about ”La Vénéneuse,”

about ”The Bewitched Lady.” I know them scene by scene.

A man who has seen those two films

can be neither a lady-killer, nor a bailiff.

Come in, my boy.

Sit down.

Thank you.

That one I saw at Barbizon.

Considering your age, I do not suppose it was an exclusivity.

No.

It was already in the film club.

If I wanted to make films, it is surely because of the scene

when Charles Boyer makes you get into his car and says:

”Drive, I like to watch women drive.”

I am a little embarrassed to tell you this, but…

I will tell you anyway.

You were the first woman I fell in love with.

You were Lili in ”Summer's Passions.”

The scene where the bra strap falls on your shoulder…

I am still not over it.

You did not come to me only to say those lovely things

and to see me?

No, I…

I came to offer you a role.

- Hello. - Good morning, Mr. Darmont. Take a seat.

Your results are excellent. You can donate your sperm.

Do you get many requests?

We have made great progress in this area.

You know, very few men are completely sterile.

I mean, there are always couples where the husband is sterile.

In any case, donations are totally anonymous.

So if your sperm is used for

insemination, you will never know about it,

I must tell you that.

Of course, that is the game!

Well, you know the procedure.

I will take the same booth.

You will see. Less than a minute, watch it.

I grab it by the tail I show it to these gentlemen

These gentlemen tell me. Soak it in water

Dip it in oil

It will make a hot snail

Tell me…

- Are there X-rated films in the booth? - Yes.

It is the American method.

It is for men who are particularly uptight.

If you do not mind my saying,

try ”Bitches in Heat”, Part Two is better than Part One.

”Buddy Bingo's Fantasy Fair” is very good, too.

It will probably get you more results. All right?

Ciao!

Ciao! Sorry.

Yes?

- Your appointment has arrived. - Send her in.

Sit down, just for a second.

Did everything go well the other night?

Are you going to ask me for a report like your secretary?

No, I already have the answer.

It went so well that he proposed to me.

What?

Well, now that you know what is at stake,

you will understand why I am so concerned about your discretion.

No one must know about this.

Do you hear me, Joëlle? No one.

Excuse me, but he will suspect something.

That is my business.

In the future, I would like you to not show up.

Forgive me for being so specific,

but I don't think we should see each other anymore.

On the other hand, I have not forgotten what I owe you

and you can ask for anything you want.

I can do favors, too. In many areas.

Thank you, but we are even.

I do not know what else to say.

- Goodbye, Joëlle. - Goodbye, Noëlle.

I forgot. That night Marc lit a cigarette.

He could not have seen your face.

No, just my ass.

That is the worst thing that could have happened to you.

Come and see the tattoos.

So…

This is the one. Is it not beautiful?

You have that on your buttock?

Marc thought it was great.

A polytechnician with it on the ass? It excited him.

I will not live with this thing all my life. It is ugly.

Think about your wedding night, old girl.

Avoid sunburn and it will be good.

- Does it hurt? - Chloé, any time now!

Okay. We are coming, do not worry.

She wants exactly the same as mine, in the same place.

She is shy and fragile.

Let's start with the coat? Come on!

The things we do for love!

I don't want a needle.

If the missus will show me her rump.

Well, I will leave you.

Cary Grant was shooting this Hitchcock film in Nice…

- ”La Main au Collet”? - ”To Catch a Thief”, in English.

And I was shooting ”Desire” by Henry Vigneux, in Victorine.

Nobody remembers, but who cares.

I beg your pardon! Who has forgotten the scene

where you climb that ladder in a wedding dress

to join Charles Vanel?

Me!

Anyway, you have an amazing career, Madeleine.

- It inspires respect. - I would rather inspire something else!

Especially in a handsome fellow like you.

But I did not ask you. What films have you been in?

- In Bruno's last film. - Let's set up.

I will ask you to join the ironing board.

Iron. That is easy.

I am the one who frames it.

Let's get into position. Lift that up!

Wait, hang on.

Lift that up.

Julien? Do you know your lines?

Yes.

You have not seen your mother in six years,

you come to tell her you are in love with a married woman who doesn't want you.

- Okay? - Okay.

All right. Yeah, well…

Julien, take the position.

Position!

Let's go!

Éric, let's start!

Rolling!

Action! Announcement!

Éric! Sorry, Madeleine.

”The Heart at Work.” Take 41/1.

Action!

- François! - Yes, Mom.

- Mom! - My little one!

- Mom! - My little one!

You could've warned me. I'd have come to get you.

No, I did not want you to see me there.

Do you know where to sleep?

No, but I do not care.

I feel like changing beds every night.

My little one…

Cut.

It's perfect.

Madeleine, thank you.

Cut! A half-hour lunch break!

That was a good one.

Julien,

you know your acting is like a pan?

How did you manage to get the lead role?

I got laid.

- In what order? - It is on the pizza box.

Here you are! Thanks, bye.

- Julien, pizza? - No.

Bruno?

Bruno?

- Roll it! - It's me!

- Are you listening to me? - What?

I am going mad.

I've been thinking ever since I donated my sperm.

You're really starting to contradict yourself.

If they inseminate a woman with my sperm,

I have the right to know who she is. Right?

You are not the father.

Do you understand? You are just a donor, that is all.

It is what you wanted, right?

I need to know.

You are headed for trouble, Julien.

You are going to make people around you suffer.

In any case, they'll never give you the personal data of the mother.

That is out of the question.

- Lorraine? - Yes?

- How long will it take? - Ten minutes.

Good evening.

Good evening.

I came to thank you.

What for?

You have been so understanding with me.

This is for you.

Thank you, you are very kind.

You are an angel, Mrs. Combescot.

The Archangel Gabriel of today, in the flesh.

It is true. You announce births.

- You are making miracles. - It's not me.

It's scientific progress.

- You don't look so good. - What's wrong?

Even science can't do anything for me.

- What is happening to you, Mr. Darmont? - You don't want to call me Julien?

Only if you call me Claudine.

Claudine?

I am not who I used to be.

Since my last visit here, I have had a kind of block.

I don't know what happened.

Nothing is the same as before.

I have worked here for thirteen years. I can hear everything.

- Well, that's it. I can't. - You?

Day in, day out, nothing. I have lost my confidence.

I'm afraid the machine is broken.

I'd rather die than never make love to a woman again.

It is the most beautiful thing in the world, right?

To hold her in my arms…

To caress her for hours…

And watch her fly away.

Smell it…

Taste it…

Grabbing her, spanking her and watching her cry.

I'm sure you are not impotent, Julien.

It must be a psychological problem. It will pass.

But what if it is mechanical?

- We have very good specialists… - No!

It is delicate, and then…

I am ashamed.

I have more confidence in you, actually.

No…

I am not qualified to do that kind of examination.

Claudine?

Well…

Let me see that.

In 99% of cases, impotence is completely psychological.

There have even been cases of men having crises

when their wives ovulate. The fear of fatherhood.

- Is that what you think it is? - Generally, it's temporary.

Well, it's already much better.

It is thanks to you, Claudine.

Hello. I'm looking for the girl who forgot this the other night.

She left so quickly.

- I think there has been a mistake. - What do you mean, a mistake?

The young woman who abandoned me at 4:00 a.m.

in Room 404 of the Lutetia, is that not you?

Noëlle does not know I am here.

How did you find me?

A video tape she left at home.

Forget that night, that would be better for everyone.

Did you forget it?

I want you like I have never wanted anyone.

Are we ready?

What are we waiting for? For what?

- Roll it! - Rolling!

- Announcement! - ”The Heart at Work,” take 21/1.

Julien, very manly, it is the convict who speaks!

Action!

- Jeanne! - Go away!

It is not very nice to let a convict down.

I cannot do anything more for you, I've done enough.

- You want to know everything? - Yes, I do.

Writing to a criminal gave me shivers

and made me feel good.

You do not meet guys like you in the street,

you only read about them in the papers,

and I love reading the papers.

- A criminal? - No, cut!

Fucking hell, Françoise! We had it!

It was good, right? It was impeccable!

It was the best. They were never that good!

- Nobody has to be good anymore. Okay?

Remember that lawsuit Sunday Film brought against us for plagiarism?

We won?

Well, they have just won the appeal.

I don't know how they did it, the bastards…

- So what? - In such cases, things happen fast.

Court decision, blocking the company's account.

Harder Production has just been hit with 27,000 francs.

I do not care about Harder Production. How much is left to finish the film?

Françoise!

743 francs.

Françoise, this is the first time I have ever wished you were a guy.

I would have smashed your face in!

- No! - Françoise!

Bruno, stop!

Leave me alone! Stop filming! Go home!

Bruno!

- Stop it! - Bruno, stop it!

Let go of me!

We are going to shoot some dicks, then some pussies!

And then more dicks, and then pussies!

Bruno!

How many days were left to shoot?

Fifteen, not including travel.

And that money was not even mine. What am I going to tell them?

What a load of crap!

The only way out is to finish the film.

Do not even think about it.

I still have the steadicam rental and the rest of the crew…

How much would we need to finish it?

A hundred and fifty thousand, at best.

What if we all chip in?

Between us, we wouldn't even have enough money for the canteen.

We have to resign. We will have had a nice dream.

You are joking. We will find a solution.

I've thought about it day and night. There is no solution!

Yes, there is.

There is one.

Would you like me to take your bag, madam?

Thanks, but it is not very heavy.

- Excuse me. - Sorry.

Excuse me.

Could you give the lady your seat, please?

- Yeah, sure. - Thank you.

Madam? Would you like to take a seat?

I am getting off in a minute.

- Yes, but… - Sorry, excuse me…

It is safer to be seated.

On the bus, we are always a bit…

Hustled.

- Sorry. - Thank you.

Goodbye.

Look at me.

But this is the best sex scene ever.

Richard, you are out!

Cyril, Bertrand, Mona, Micheline, keep it up, that is good!

I don't know. There are eighteen. Nothing but stars.

Gabriella, suck Julien!

Keep on sucking him and jerk Sébastien off with your right hand!

With the right hand, or we will not be able to see Stéphane!

I will not tell you how I got them,

but I can tell you how you can get them.

Aldo, go ahead with Claire!

No, just above Ingrid's knee!

There you go!

If you come in with 20,000, I will give you 60% of the negative.

But you will get ”The Hot D'or.” You love that.

Chloé! You're not looking good, kiddo. Get closer to Daniela and Joanne.

That is it, perfect.

No, it's just temporary. It's called ”Vicious All-Rounders.”

Alright, kids. Two-minute break.

Ciao!

Well?

Françoise, you are a genius!

You and me both.

After all, ”The Heart at Work,” is the story of a poor guy

who would like to fuck a loaded, stuck-up woman.

Make a hardcore version of every scene, you'd get two films instead of one.

If that is the price, I have to pay to finish mine.

Perfect! Go on!

I still do not understand how you managed to get them all.

I told them the truth.

I promised they'd all be in ”The Heart at Work”.

- Bruno, it is time. - Let's cut! Two-hour break!

Bravo! Bravo everybody!

Solidarity is beautiful.

You know Françoise? You worked together.

Bravo and thank you.

Thank you again.

Go change costumes for the cocktail scene!

Let's go!

”The Heart at Work,” take 25/1, the first.

Pretend you are talking. Move your lips.

Okay? Animation!

Action!

Do you prefer the figurative or the abstract paintings?

There are two kinds of paintings,

the kind that questions the sofa and the kind that goes well with it.

Cut!

That is good, right?

- That is a hard sentence to say. - No, it was good! Let's do it again.

How was I?

Very good, everyone!

- … two types of paintings… - I am fine.

Back to your places. Françoise, did you see this?

Back to your place, we will do it again!

Wait, I will do it again.

Do you prefer the figurative or the abstract paintings?

There are only two types of paintings:

the one that is good, that questions the couch…

and the one that is good… Bruno!

Cut.

That sentence is too difficult.

Action!

”The Heart at Work,” take 25/1, 11th.

But beauty, my lord…

Can it have a better companion than virtue?

Yes, my love.

For beauty will have the power to make virtue…

Madam,

before virtue has the strength to transform beauty into her own image.

Stop! Come here. You are as sensual as a dead carp!

How is this possible? Just say the lines!

Who wants to try?

Who?

No one?

You're going to embarrass me.

Theater is all about courage! So, no one?

- Yes, us! - We want to try.

Please do.

It will at least allow us to see you in the light.

Do you know your lines?

- Basically, yes. - Enough.

- Shall we stand here? - Yes, please. I am listening.

My lord.

You are beautiful…

What does your Lordship mean?

That if you are virtuous and beautiful, you must allow no connection

between your virtue and your beauty.

But can beauty be a better companion than virtue?

Yes, my love.

For beauty shall have power to make virtue, madam.

Chloé, do you prefer it with me or with your colleagues?

What is this, your fantasy? To be the best?

No, I just want to know, that is all.

They have something you will never have, but they do not have the essence.

What about me? What do I have that the others do not?

Guess.

Is that all?

No, silly, but what do you want me to say?

Smart women with tight asses and long teeth,

all dressed in Chanel. Plenty of them are in the ministries.

But someone like you is unique.

You are unique, Chloé.

- Did you see her again? - Who?

- Well, Noëlle. - No, I have not.

I feel like I betrayed her.

Do not talk nonsense. Let me see you,

and do that thing with the pillows.

- What? - You know, with the pillows.

- But what? - Wait, I will show you.

You do not have to tell me all this if you just want to make love to me.

You just got out of prison and have not held a woman in your arms for six years.

I can get that from any whore!

I want you because…

I love you.

You loved the one who wrote to you.

You dreamed of her, created her, but it was not me.

Cut!

- How was it? - For me, it was fine.

- Éric, will you calm down on the… - Yes, well, wait…

It was fine.

But it is a confession scene.

So, I confessed.

Yes, but it is the first time they tried talking to each other.

I would have liked something more…

Restrained, on the edge…

- On the what? - Just… Let's do it again.

- What is the edge? - I don't know.

Camera roll!

Hey, what is the edge?

More restraint.

But it is not you. It's Julien. You were very good.

But I do not know what you mean by edge.

More restrained. Speak less loudly…

Roll.

I can't hear a thing!

- What the hell are you doing? - I am recording a sound.

The lights are out! Hurry up, come on!

A single train sound, wait a minute!

Why not the stereo, while you are at it!

We're going to fail because he's an artist!

Yes, let's go! Roll!

Let's go!

We still do not have it!

”The Heart at Work,” take 32.

It's not ”The Heart at Work,”

this is ”Vicious All-Rounders.” Go!

- You are not on it now. - Tell me about it!

So, ”Vicious All-Rounders,” take 23/1…

- Come on! - Let's do it!

Action!

Tell me…

Here, look.

See what a big gift I have brought you.

Mm?

Yes, you suck really good.

It's nice to meet a pretty little slut like you.

That is bullshit!

Cut! What is going on?

The dialogue has to change. It's too stupid.

Honey, we have done this a hundred times!

There is no point to what we are saying! Nobody cares!

She is right. I'm sorry, we don't care.

And what he looks like saying, ”It's nice to meet

a pretty little slut like you.” Who is going to get a hard-on?

It is true that it is almost like a talking cock.

If only it was funny, some festive sex, but that is not interesting at all!

Okay, let's take it back.

But what do we say? What do we do?

Say what you want. Do what you can do.

Don't forget we are making ”Vicious All-Rounders.”

- Okay. - To the edge.

Go ahead, make fun of me.

Places everyone!

- Bruno, while we are at it… - No way!

Since we are making suggestions, why are we keeping the lousy title?

We had the same one for 30 years. We need something more modern!

Do not tell me you have a modern idea.

We could call it ”Ardour.”

It's good, ”Harder.” Like the name of the production, great.

No, Ardour, A-R-D-O-U-R. It is a nice title.

Well, can we go on now?

- Is it not good? - Can we go on? Let's go on.

What do I do with the clapperboard? I have ”Vicious All-Rounders.”

Should I change the title?

No, you can't.

Do you really want this? Because, look.

If we put ourselves at windshield level in a sequence…

That is how it was!

Look at this. You are standing at windshield level in a sequence.

It's great, is it not? Look at this.

- Let's do it like this. - Shall we do it?

Let's go!

Don't change a thing. Roll!

”Vicious All-Rounders,” take 23/1, the second.

Alright, mouse!

Okay, action!

- Excuse me. - Sorry.

We know each other, right?

Yeah, we met on a bus a few days ago.

Right, that is it.

You too, you are… waiting…

Yes. It is my first.

Well, me too.

Do you know what it is?

No, but I would rather not know.

Excuse me, do you have it in other colors?

- Yes, follow me. - Thank you.

Actually, I would like something simpler.

- All right, I will see. - Thank you.

- Your husband, what does he think? - Sorry? About what?

Would he prefer a girl or a boy?

He would prefer a girl.

If it is a boy, will he still care for him?

Sure.

I am sure you have read ”The Real Child” by Carol Barnard.

I think you will find everything there about raising a child.

No, I have not.

You do not read books on…

Parenting, childbirth

I thought, if you go to the sessions regularly…

I mean, it is less than six months.

I know, but you can't start too early.

- True. - Do you intend to breastfeed?

- I mean… - Breastfeed?

I have not really thought about it.

And the name?

Have you thought about the name?

No, I have not.

If it is a boy, what do you think of Julien?

Excuse me, you look really anxious,

for a father.

A little, maybe. Your husband must look anxious, too.

- No, he is very cool about it. - But wait…

What do you mean by ”cool”? He is cold and detached, right?

No, what I mean is that he…

He does not panic.

No, he does not! But me neither, I do not panic at all.

But when a man knows that a woman is carrying his child,

nothing exists but her.

He is there to…

Serve her, to love her, and to save her.

He has to be there all the time.

Do you realize that between the man and the woman

something extraordinary is happening?

They are merging.

And all because of one little dalliance. And there they are, linked for life.

Do you realize that?

Can you believe it?

Well, yes. But I have to go home.

Excuse me, I will come by some other time.

Okay…

- Goodbye, sir. - Goodbye.

I will never forget this conversation.

Julien, if it is a boy. Think about it!

Julien.

It will bring him luck.

I will take this.

Hello. I would like to see Noëlle Bellac. I did not make an appointment.

That is impossible, she is with someone else.

I cannot… I will call you back.

I am sorry, I know you are busy but…

It is nothing, Jacqueline, I will see her.

- You could have made a phone call. - You would not have agreed.

What do you want?

I've been with Marc for a month.

If you have not seen him again, it is because of me.

I love him and I think he loves me.

Is that funny?

I am sorry. I am shocked.

I will pull myself together.

You are my friend, so I needed to tell you.

I just wish we were having this conversation somewhere else.

But since you are here, sit down.

I had lunch with Marc today.

We were going to discuss a couple of things about the prenup.

I hope you will come. What do you think?

What are you thinking, girl?

He has known that for a long time.

I gave him your address.

He loved our little game.

Me by day, you by night, it is perfect. There is no reason for it to stop.

What are you talking about?

We talked about it for a long time, he and I.

You quit your job, and we work out a financial arrangement.

I will take care of his career,

you take care of everything else.

I will never be your match.

It is the perfect setup.

Think about it.

That is good, Chloé. Not too fast.

Easy, damn it! It's just us. Let's do it as you want.

You two have amazing sex.

Do you know why you are better than the others?

Than the billions of other people on the planet?

Yes, Chloé. That is good, keep going.

No, it's not about technique. Forget the technique tonight.

I need passion.

There is no cheating with passion.

Passion is everything at once. Desire, complicity, trust…

Curiosity, humor, hunger…

It is happiness! The passion is there, or it's not!

Tonight, we have it all, damn it!

Chloé…

He has beautiful skin.

Nobody has ever told him. So, tonight, tell him that.

Tell him.

With every inch of your body.

Yes, you are brilliant.

Action, Chloé!

I thought crimes of passion,

were something you only saw in soap operas.

Do you know what a true crime of passion is?

It means accepting to live without the other person,

but refusing that the other person can live without you.

True crimes of passion are selfish, not romantic.

I paid a lot of money to find out.

Cut!

So how is this one?

- I thought it was okay. - We will keep this one.

Should we do it again?

Kids, it is getting late. Let's go on to the next one and call it a night.

But Françoise was the last one.

What?

Do you ever read the schedule?

Do you mean to say that we have nothing left to shoot?

- Not even a little. - Already?

Do not worry, it is fine!

We will all meet at the Cabourg Festival.

If I am right, we will have a little fieldwork.

That's it.

The champagne is there.

- Did you plan this? - Well, yeah.

Sylvain, got a light?

Do you have any plans?

I am working on ”Wet Pussies,” by Jean-Pierre Lamour.

Calypso Vidéo has offered me two films with them.

- Really? - What about you?

They offered the sequel to ”Fuck Demonia,” but I don't know if I'll do it.

Éric, turn off the fifth, please.

Thank you.

NINE MONTHS LATER…

-Hello? -Sweetheart, it is Bruno.

What the hell are you doing? There's still room in the minibus.

Hello, Bruno, I am not ready yet.

I will take the 3:15 train, all right?

I need you no later than 7:00 p.m.

I remind you that we're opening the festival.

I will be there, don't worry.

Well, love you. Bye-bye.

You have got to be kidding me!

-Hello, Joëlle? - Mom?

-Are you all right, dear? - I'm fine.

I have wanted to hear from you for a long time.

I am glad you called me.

Do you remember your classmate, Noëlle Bellac?

Yes.

She is getting married today.

Her mother sent me an invitation.

But I had to stay at home, with your father.

And I get tired at the big events.

You did the right thing, Mom.

She probably invited you too, right?

Of course she invited me.

I wanted to tell you,

that your father and I would like you to come and see us more often.

I will come next week.

- Is Wednesday okay? - Wednesday is fine. Great!

Your father will be pleased. Love you, darling.

- Love you, Mom. See you on Wednesday. - Bye.

Do you like it?

Which one should I take?

Whichever one you want.

The black one is for cocktails, but the yellow one is more chic.

No?

I have to make you proud, darling.

Would you rather take your coat or your mackintosh?

Neither.

In Cabourg, you have to be careful. If I were you, I would take the coat.

I'm not going to Cabourg.

Are you kidding me?

No.

I am not going to the festival.

You cannot do that to Bruno!

You don't want to see this film?

I don't care about the film.

I am fed up with this job, I quit.

Why are you telling me this today?

What is going on with you?

What is going on, Julien?

You have been sulking for months.

I thought you were anxious about this film.

I am telling you I don't care about it.

Is it because of me?

Did I do something to you that I am not aware of?

No.

Say it! You are starting to scare me.

Don't blame me, Sophie.

Talk to me!

I donated my sperm.

A woman whose husband is infertile was pregnant with me.

I cannot think of anything else.

Was the baby born?

Yes.

Lorraine told me that there will be lots of people from Paris.

The Cabourg Festival is very chic.

She also told me about the other films in competition.

According to her, ”The Heart at Work” stands a chance.

No way I would miss it.

I don't think I forgot anything.

See you soon, my love.

There she is! Look.

This brings back memories!

Long live the bride!

And the father is very emotional.

”In the presence of God, who is the source of your love,

and will always be with you,

and for all those who are here,

exchange your vows.”

Noëlle, do you want to be my wife?

Yes, I do.

And you, Marc, do you want to be my husband?

I do.

He is happy to be at his dad's wedding.

- What is she doing here? - I don't know.

- You see, she is pregnant? - Yes, I can see that.

”From now on, you are united by God in marriage.”

Daddy's wife is very beautiful!

”May the Lord bless your covenants,

and keep you both in love

And in faithfulness.”

- We will take you home. - No, I don't want to disturb you.

You…

Bastard!

What's the matter? What's wrong?

I don't feel well, guys.

I have contractions in the back of my neck.

In my belly, I feel something like acid drops.

You did that to me the day we met.

That proves that everything is fine.

You are sweet, but there are five vending machines in the room.

It is time for a little socializing.

- No word from Chloé? - She had to catch the next train.

I waited for her at the station but didn't see her.

That bastard Julien cancels at the last moment,

and the bitch misses her train!

Everyone wants to see the actors, damn it!

- Bruno! Françoise! - Madeleine!

Come and meet my old friend Ronald.

I have not seen him in 30 years.

Here is the whole team of ”The Heart at Work.”

- How are you, Madeleine? - Good.

They usually make porn, but they are very nice people.

- How are you? - Good. And you, are you alright?

- Yes, I am a bit… - No, he is fine.

- Everything is alright. - Everything is alright.

Julien?

Julien, my good man.

Give daddy a smile.

What is wrong, baby?

- Come on, calm down. - Shall we go?

There you go.

We should go, guys.

THE SIXTH ROMANTIC FILM FESTIVAL

I will introduce the director of the film,

Mr. Bruno Markham and Madam…

Bruno Markham, I am the director of the film.

And…

Françoise Masson, good evening. I am only the producer.

I am sorry.

Just to tell you that if François Truffaut's words

prove to be true, that is…

Finally…

A successful film is always a metaphor for its own making.

As far as ours is concerned, in any case…

in relation to its title, I…

”The Heart at Work.”

Well, I must say that… That is what we did…

During these five weeks…

I believe that you should not say too many things before a movie,

so I wish you a good screening.

And thank you very much.

I have a banquet right after this.

Where?

Do you know where it is?

Bravo!

Bravo!

Bravo!

I like the whole first part of the film.

This love story that unfolds like this…

I have a very sensible heart, you know.

And I like it when it ends well.

There is so much…

There is so much violence in movies now,

there are only disasters.

So here it is not the case. A real happy end, like before…

I like it when people are happy,

when you feel they will love each other all their lives…

I like that.

You do not?

I'm sorry. See you soon! Bye!

I've found a nice villa for ”Submissions 2.”

Tuesday works better than Wednesday.

I have asked Richard,

to switch the scenes where the girl dreams she is coming.

Who is the girl?

Nina. I went to Moscow to find her.

And me, what would I do?

Play the psychoanalyst.

And the forest scene, where do we do it?

- Rambouillet. - Rambouillet?

Yes…

What was the name of that rubbish during ”The Heart at Work,”

do you remember?

”Ardour.”

That is the one you should have given me a part in!

ARDOUR

How do you do?

This is crazy, did you know? Did you know about this?

- Maybe it's not ours! - It's marked Ardour.

Well, I don't know.

I hope it's not the other one, because I am hallucinating.

Look how many people there are!

Did you see that? That's her, that's us there!

Did you see yourself? Did you see yourself? You are there!

Yes, it is us! That's you, there!

- That's you, there. - There's Chloé!

And Julien!

That is ours! Those are the pictures!

- And the photos? - I don't know what it is…

Excuse me, are you going to see Ardour?

I made it.

Hello. How many of you are there?

There are the actors! The actors!

Woman is the future of man

You read it in the lines of my eyes

The sense of the sensual in sum
