No. Since this morning.

Must be with a friend.

Not gonna say anything. The day is beautiful.

But I can tell you. it's almost official.

Marius and Fanny will get marry.

Do not make that face.

I know what you're thinking.

On the fool's day, i'll ask Fanny's mother.

Certainly she will not like this marriage.

so ?

- her nature color is back - So much better!

now tell me what did make her faint?

I did nothing! Put yourself in her place.

a healthy girl.

I do not blame you. that your husband died.

No man in the family and still poor.

- How poor? - Let me talk.

No man in the family and almost miserable.

They say she will marry my son

and will be the owner a beautiful bar.

she Fainted because of joy. normal.

We are very honored By being part of the family.

Now we can eat.

- There is? - That's not what I said!

Marius.

What are you saying?

he's gone Cesar he left us.

Where'd he go?

sailed on Maliysia this morning.

left for 5 years

What are you saying?

he wanted to go for quiet long time

he's passionate about boats. as a disease.

he found a job on Malayisia

He left you after all?

is that being honest?

If I did not, he wouldn't have gone

it's going to be against his desire he'll do it for me.

But he was suffering.

This desire to the Sea it's kiling him.

This morning I told him i do not want him anymore.

and i do not love him anymore.

and he's gone!

C�sar!

will you work ?

I will. Emilienne ,i will sell the fish.

Fanny's sick. I'll take her place.

Very ill?

She is not well, she's hardly eats.

she's pale as a ghost.

What if she dies? My God, my girl!

Honorine, come on! No one dies from love!

sometimes love kills us like a revolver.

But when we are unable to see, forget.

not always, Emilienne.

I know at least two who died of love.

they Pretended they were sick,

but it was love!

Why is he walking this way?

he's Waiting for the postman like every morning.

His son wil write to him every day, and he wil get tired of reading.

he's waiting for the first letter. that his son has not written.

Exactly.

he's not talking to anyone. and suffering alone

and he's chocking with his saddness

he has to relief

he has his reason, we have to make him talk

-it won't be easy - we can try .

he won't kill us.

will you?, Honor�.

- me? - And why not?

- Will you help him? - I will!

So let's go.

are you Expecting someone?

And why would i ?

i don't know.

you're here waiting for the postman.

I? Waiting for the postman? And why?

To see if he wil bring a letter from your son.

isn't it , Panisse?

F�lix.don't interfere with my family issues

I did not ask if your wife was with the president.

- No. But just tell me.

Not true, Felix.

True or not, but i know.

And do the same. Do not talk to me about Marius.

and mind your own bussiness

- Do not ask anything. - Me neither.

Do not ask, but are forcing a confidence.

No way, C�sar!

I see in your eyes.

Even in the eyes of passers, I see you have pity on me!

i know what they say when I'm not around.

"He shall cry every night "

in his empty house

he doesn't care about the bar and waiting for a letter from his son

who never writes his heart is broken. "

I'm thinking so,

give importance to the story to which I do not think

I will explain once and for all.

You asked me if i was waiting for the postman.

No. I'm not waiting for the postman.

When a boy had courage.

leaving his old father,

and he hasn't write for 59 days

there is no reason to write on the 60th.

There was no way he wrote before scaling in Port Sa�d.

According to the newspapers,

The Malaisie left Port Sa�d, in 12 days.

it needs two weeks for the letter to arrive.

there are letters that arrive in 9 days.

But not always.

Do you think?

I'm sure.

Why wasting time talking about this?

I do not care , anymore.

Do not you care?

No, i do not care!

Suppose he has written a letter a day.

saying "I'm fine, I think of you "

"And imagine your pain."

Etc., etc... Suppose that every night.

he kept the letters and all posted in Port Sa�d.

Suppose the postman come now and say.

"For the Mr C�sar."

and brings a package of 3 pounds to read all night.

Reading 3 times each ...

Picked up the package and i'll put underneath the counter

i won't open it because i'm not interested.

ah , good...

In the far believing who does not love his son more.

ah , no

It was not what I said.

I loved him very much,but after what he did, eventually.

- In short, what he did? - In short?

In short? In short!

My God!

What he did to you?

what he did ! he's gone

and has he no right to go?

No! Not without telling me!

This is true!

- It is not done. - And what would you have done?

I would have stopped him!

- and kick his ass? - Certainly!

why he would have this passion for sailing!

C�sar, let me say that you have a big ego

If he wants to sail, you has no right to stop him.

he would go wherever he wants but not to the sea

Wherever he would go ?

That does not navigate at sea!

That as you navigate, in harbors and rivers.

or lakes ...

And nowhere else, for God's sake!

do we need to sail to be able to live our lives?

Did Mr. Panisse sail?

No, he is not a beast, huh?

He needs candles.

The candles to light for our children during the light wind.

i'm not going to wait forever

One minute, I'm measuring!

-are you kidding? no it's not a joke-

a game of boules.

oh my!

then i measure

I'm in a hurry!

Silence! you're hindering the game!

it's amazing!

Have to start ...

how fast!

Bravo, Captain! And 25 meters!

Congratulations! And my respect.

do you respect a cheater? He took 4 steps.

- I gave 4 steps? - Maybe even 5!

- I swear ... - I do not play with thieves.

Come on, Caesar! Come back!

Begins with a cheating and ends with a poisoning!

the soup that his wife make I would not give it to my dog!

And I do not have a dog.

Who has anything to say?

Who is the liar , who will speak?

Do not say anything, Sr. Brun!

good afternoon,gentelmen.

My coat.

So You have a day off and called this bastard.

After the child was gone it is impossible.

Truth. he's getting worse every day.

Perhaps he'll die of sadness.

He will not die, no.

But he will go crazy.

I think. And Fanny as well.

Not! Let's not dramatize.

Fanny is young.

She has many suitors. Will propse to her

Yes, the youth will have solution for everything.

The youth, perhaps.

but C�sar...

Toussaint Bighetti?

yes

Letter to you. shall i go up to you or are you coming down?

come up

Tripette?

he doesn't live here anymore.

do you have anything for me, Fanny Cabanis?

Today i have nothing for you.

maybe you left with my mother the fishmonger?

i would left a notice

is there any?

it's not my fault, i deliver letters not write them

But I have to Caesar.

And it came from ... Port Sa�d.

Thank you, Mr mailman! I'll take it.

Bandoloni!

Ange Pietri?

A letter from Port Sa�d!

Caesar, it is heavy.

and what next ?

C�sar...

Marius. he's writing back.

and?

Caesar, read!

harry up. Read.

Congress will have a producers of lemonade.

I can not lose.

Come on, Caesar!

What? are you going to force me?

it's news of your son, you have to ...

Caesar, open the letter.

To please the girl.

do you want the news from the sailor faraway ?

I do not.

he really wants to open the letter, but not in front of us.

Let's go quietly.

Good idea.

Good idea, but no one move. i don't want to pay the price.

Come on! More and more modesty.

Shame for what?

He's right, Felix. Come on.

you're pale. you should go to the doctor.

For what?

He will say if you are anemic. and give something to whet your appetite.

- My mother won't agree - Go alone.

go to Dr. Venelle my doctor.

go at the afternoon. I'll give you the money.

No, thank you, Panisse. i don't have to.

don't be like that. there must be something for you in the letter

i don't think so.

just wait

Love is much the same beast.

it's not a beast but it's bad

don't worry

Caesar will open the letter and recite it to all of Marseille.

Fanny! Come on!

he's very well!

Come read the letter.

See?

"Dear Dad,"

"Forgive the pain I caused you."

"It must be sad since I left. "

"I think about you every night."

And I think of you all day, busterd!

"To explain that it's my desire"

"I would not know how to write"

"Ask Fanny. She knows my madness. "

Madness is the right word. Glad you recognized it.

"Now I will tell you about my life. "

"When we left, they put me in the kitchen. "

a Kitchen helper!

Imagine! he must be eating well on that boat.

"But after a few days"

"I was replaced by a man who was hurt "

"I took his place on deck. "

Now it will be terrible, you'll see.

"I couldn't write before"

"because we had problems upon arriving in Port Sa�d. "

"A sailor died"

"the authorities found it was fever,

We stayed in quarantine. "

The plague, can you imagine?

A plague on his boat!

once a friend of his had mumps, so he stayed home for keeping him safe.

And now he was swimming in the plague!

In fever to the neck.

- But he did not have it? - Oh, Marius!

always has your fears and thoughts

Okay, continue.

"Doctors took samples from the dead

"And they said it was not the plague. "

Just as well!

"We released and headed to Aden. "

"A wonderful trip"

"Unfortunately we do not stop by the way "

"We spent over several islands "

"Where is Athens the great fortress of the Romans. "

One can easily see that he is with scientists...

"It's fine"

"My new life is optimal. Working in ocean groves

this word I could not read.

"We measure the background of the Indian Ocean. "

Imagine. he hasn't measure a dose ...

and now he will measure the depth of the sea!

"Scientists they are very kind to me. "

Of course!

Then there is one thing for you.

"Anyway, all is well.

"I hope you're well and fanny. "

He cares about you, See?

"send me news about her health."

about your health, see?

"And herwedding with the brave Panisse. "

"She'll be happy with it. Say what I said. "

He said, see?

"Write to me, aboard Malaisie in Aden. "

"A fondly kiss. your son, Marius. "

your son, Marius.

"Do not worry: I'm happy like a chick in the garbage. "

He's happy.

He left us and yet is happy.

What do you want, my little Fanny ...

He is so ...

Consider that he did not have much time.

it's difficult to write on board, needs to balance all the time.

He could have written something more affectionate to me

and especially for you, my little one.

but maybe he has time to write a long sentence,

something very sentimental,

it was easy for him to measure "the oceanographic".

he can explain it.

And it's the first letter. There's no other.

Come, Fanny. We will reply.

my handwriting is very thick , you write.

Come to the kitchen. Come on.

Good morning!

we are closed, sir.

Why are you closed?

Because of the correspondence.

Well ..

"My dear child,"

"Finally got your first letter. "

"It is not very long"

"The next one i hope it will has 10 or 20 pages "

"what you said about scientists is very interesting. "

"But you do not lean too far to measure the seabed "

"you may fall."

"And where is very deep, let others measure. "

I know Marius.

One day I took him to fishing on Panisse's boat.

and he fell into the sea.

I must say that his head is heavier than the rear

After he changed course.

Where are we? Reread the last sentence.

"Let other measure."

Yes Underline "Others" very strong.

"And if someone has a fever"

"Talk to him from far and do not go near by ,

"even if he's your best friend. "

Friendship is admirable, but the plague is the end of the world. "

"Here everything is fine."

"Out of the terrible anger that I felt when you're gone "

",that has not passed yet."

"Fanny is not well

"She barely eats and she is very pale "

"Everyone noticed"

"People say she will die"

"Caesar god forbids

"Honorine looks at me with anger

"I have the impression that she would give me a shot "

"And it gives me chills."

Why didn't you write this?

i do not think that you need to say that.

He will suffer.

and it doesn't make us suffer?

Yes, but it will not help .

Maybe you're right.

So what should we say?

Let me write.

First tell me.

Fanny is as always.

"about marring Panisse ,still have nothing ready. "

You are so great!

sometimes we talk about you in the cafe terrace. "

at night, when everything is calm "

in our converstaions with Panisse or Mr. Brun.

"Neither seems you are so far "

"it Looks like you went to the station to fetch the baskets "

"and you will show up at the door

"with your straw hat and your neckerchief. "

Why wasn't she go to work?

She has been replaced again.

Listen, my sister ...

When she wants to work you tell her to go sightseeing.

And when she wants to take a walk you complain!

are you waiting for someone?- no-

Look! Mr. Panisse!

Yes, I am.

-Good morning, ma'am. How do you do? - Good morning.

Well ,What about you?

Not bad. You are very beautiful.

N! It is you who is handsome.

I'm coming from a wedding, so I'm dressed like this.

And you look very well, you know?

A Tailcoat always goes down well. But I'm Not Cute,it is the clothing.

Do not say that, Panisse.

no need to know wear fancy clothing and it looks good on him.

isn't it , Honorine?

Sit, Sr. Panisse.

go fetch a liquor for Mr. Panisse.

was it a beautiful wedding?

It was beautiful. And even exciting.

Especially for me.

The groom was alive, like me.

And same my age, like me.

And married a young marvelous woman.

she Worked at the checkout. Very young.

He did well.

and by the end of the cermony two or three people

mocked him.

I thought they had no reason. And you, what do you think?

they were jealous.

What do you think, Honorine?

If he was happy, the best for him.

If a mature man wants to marry a young woman.

if his situation allows it,

why it will look an old ugly?

- So, you are approving about my friend? - Congratulations to him!

And you, Honorine?

If it makes him happy,

if it will assure, happiness and fortune ...

Okay ...

my dear Honorine,

I can see that there's a common sense prevails here

I think it is time to renew an attitude.

which will has a great impact on my future.

I want to marry your daughter, is that ok?

would you give me her hand or not?

of course we do !

Mind your own business.

do you know what will happen?

With Marius,don't you? I know.

It no longer exists, Honorine, you said.

Mr. you do not know everything. Marius ...

Marius is a subject I do not like.

Let's talk about the rain, taxes, but not Marius.

and then?, Honorine,

the answer?

i'll Give you my answer tomorrow night.

is there any hope for me?

Much Panisse.

Father, forgive me. I loved him too!

bring him back to me , to give a name to his son.

Holy Virgin, Give me the courage to live.

Give me strength to tell my mother.

Finally the miss arrived!

And where were you, girl?

do you like being replaced everyday?

- Good morning, dear. - Good morning, Aunt.

The ride was well to you . Can not even speak.

She can talk, Give her a break.

Was giving a ride?

- What are you looking at? - Nothing.

your Aunt Claudine comes to visit and you're sulking!

- She's not sulking! - Look at her face!

give her a break.

Fanny help me set the table. I'm hungry!

Are not you hungry?

mother?

What?

i'm going to have a baby.

What are you saying?

I will have a son. The doctor just told me.

Oh my God! Oh my God!

It is not possible! It is not true.

Out!

Out dishonest daughter!

Lost daughter! If your father were here, he would have killed you.

- Should I open the door? - Wherever she goes?

For the street, street girl! she's not my daughter!

- Mom! - Go pack your suitcase!

Honorine, do not be silly.

Shut up, Honorine.

she's worse than Zoe, it is the shame of the family!

Short or put you out a beating!

- Slut! - Honorine!

Fanny!

And now she fainted!

Vinegar! hurry, vinegar!

Not be ashame

do you want to kill her?

she is white like a dead!

Fanny! My little! My daughter!

My beloved daughter do not die!

Come on, open your eyes! But do not Die!

I forgive you, but do not Die!

mother , it's nothing.

there's nothing mother.

look, it passed.

Breathe.

My God!

My God, my heart!

Walk. hurry, the chair!

she is getting fine.

You should die of shame!

Shut your mouth!

She faints and you cry, it improves and you resumes.

Leave her alone!

do you think it's normal for a girl to come home with a baby under the apron?

Of course it is a disgrace.

but wasn't it expected , was it?

With a lover,

it is easier to have a son to join a million.

Who is the father?

from Marius?

Who else could it be? Can not be all of Marseille!

Ah, is Marius ...

If I took this to ...

This guy has no morals. to make a girl get pregnant.

and does not provides.

But what are we going to do? -The evil done this.

And well done.

Ah, my daughter!

Say, my daughter. Since when do you know?

Since i did not ...

I did not feel well.

It was not like before.

i got Nausea every morning.

Today I decided to see Dr. Venelle.

Ah! A good doctor. Very wise.

What did he say?

it will be born in March.

A beautiful month! The month of maddness...

don't cry , it's not going to help.

What will you do?

I'll do whatever you want, as long as you stay with me.

Then it is easy. We are saved.

Marry Panisse.

Does he still want me?

He came to ask for your hand again this morning.

This time be yes, yes, yes!

get marry in 15 days.

and I will give him the answer.

- What do you think? - Huh?

I?

I...

I think I'm well off.

I am able to work and be alone.

If my mother would allow me, i don't want to get marry.

provide for my son with my work.

and wait for his father's return.

If he comes back.

Beautiful but difficult.

Difficult? impossible! Raising a child alone?

Let's not waste time with nonsense!

Mom. what about Madeleine Cadot?

she is a single mother. She created the law and she is happy.

It is not the same thing. The father died near the wedding.

While this one went to sea.

running away with all his strength to not marry you!

In all families there are daughters good and lost.

This is forgivable because it is natural.

But in our opinion it is impossible

why our sister Zo� stole the time.

If you do not accept Panisse , we will lose our honor.

and I will die of sorrow with your shame.

But he wants me?

If I'm saying he asked again!

But he does not know I'm pregnant.

Fortunately!

do you Want me to marry him without telling the truth?

And you would be stupid to say?

But it has to! He's right.

She is crazy or she's kidding?

Fanny, this man is our only hope.

but if you want to tell , he won't marry you

but Not saying would be a crime.

Why tell if you do not know if it's true?

Dr. Venelle told me.

But he's decrepit! He is 100 years old!

i do not want to be dishonest.

A woman is never dishonest with a man.

It's my fault. Worst for me. I have to turn around.

would it be good for Panisse to father a bastard?

i'm not going to be able to look anyone in the eye.

And I'm proposing that?

That's it. Come with moral lesson!

Honorine, don't resume.

a terrible tragedy, but we have to eat.

- Fanny, go sit down. - I'm Not Hungry!

When we do not have children, and envy those who have,

when we have, they treat us like horses!

The Virgin had a look at everything they did.

And it was still a boy.

are The bastards uglier than others?

On the contrary.

Sometimes they are stronger and smarter.

So, what are you complaining about?

Bon appetit, Mr. Panisse.

Bon appetit, ladies.

Bon appetit, Mr. Panisse.

Bon appetit, ladies.

Bon appetit

Bon appetit to you.

Can I talk to you, Panisse?

You can go to lunch, Mrs. Roumieux.

Thank you. I'm going.

Come here inside. it's more quiet.

Your mother told you and I asked for your hand again?

Yes, she told me.

- did you Come to give me your answer? - Yes

Will you tell me "no" again?

Alright. Do not worry about me.

If it is no, is no. And this is it .

Okay, what to do?

You are mistaken, Panisse. i didn't come to say no.

are you going to say yes?

I came to say, if possible,

I would say yes.

- But it is impossible. - Why?

Because there is a serious thing you do not know.

And when you know, you won't want me anymore.

But I already know!

Several people already know.

Marius has been seen out of your home one morning. And what about it?

If someone comes to tell me.

you're going to marry a girl ,you are not her the first?

I'll answer, and I? I happen to be a virgin?

No, then. What harm can be there?

You're good, Panisse.

But what about something more serious, that it's not clear.

Yes ..

You still think of Marius.

it's not your fault, you will forget.

You'll be a different woman.

right. I still think about him.

But there is something more terrible.

An irreparable consequence.

What is it?

Huh?

Do not force me to say. Try to understand.

Well, I'm trying, looking, thinking ...

Do not look. you should understand.

you are right, Panisse. Do not stay with me.

I'm lost. Lost!

you'll have the right to kill me.

baby, Funny?

speak...

a baby?

Are you sure? It was the doctor who said?

that's why you were So sick?

Do not despise me, Panisse!

You asked my hand, I had to say "yes",

but I have a child eating my stomach.

He wants to be born.

And even then, marry me?

I'll be grateful to you.

i may end up loving you.

And the child?

You give it to me? Be mine? Having my name?

it's the only thing I ask of you.

Mother of God!

Will you still want me? Really?

Fanny, didn't you notice my badge?

it's writing "Honor� Panisse" and then "master of candles."

left, the letters are tight and then there is a void.

Come see it!

Has the "e".

Has the "F", the "l"

"L"

and "S"!

"Panisse and Sons"!

it was saved for 30 years , I could never use it.

And now, Fanny, let's be accurate.

You told me your secret.

anyone else?

The doctor knows, but he doesn't count.

- Who else? - My mother and and Claudine.

they won't harm the family honor, anyone else?

Nobody.

And when he's coming?

February or March.

Sit down, my dear Fanny.

Being a child of 7 months.

And when do we get married?

Mr. Panisse you are sure? are you sure?

When I married Felicite, she was your age.

And I was not much older.

For a long time, we were scared to have a child

and when we decide to have, it' hadn't happen.

It was a great suffering.

But now, everything changed.

A woman and a son to me.

there is a condition:

I dont want you to tell anyone, or to your mother,

that you told me.

I will say nothing.

And I ask of you, despite what we both know.

you'll marry with white dress.

So, I'll have the impression that this is my son.

- C�sar! - Panisse!

i Don't want to see him.

are you there?

Yes, I'm coming.

You counting money, old miser?

Wait for me here, I'll be back.

So?

I heard you will ask Fanny for marriage.

I could tell it's not your bussiness.

not my bussiness?

Somehow.

But as I have nothing to hide, I asked

and this time, she didn't refuse.

I'm afraid that this marriage will not happen.

-won't happen? -no

Why? Your son is coming back?

Unfortunately he'll be back in about 26 months.

But it'll not happen because I do not want to.

Funny. And that's not your right either?

according to the law Fanny is the wife of Marius.

they are not married on paper, but that is a formality.

And if she does not want to wait?

- Will want. She loves Marius.

she just say "yes"!

- She told you? - Perfectly for me!

I do not understand anything at all.

Or rather, I understand very well!

you bought the girl. by the mother, old slave!

Tell the truth. you did that, did not you?

As well, Caesar?

it's not possible to buy a girl if she does not want you? Do not you understand?

I realize that this marriage would be absurd, crazy.

Preposterous.

You know very well that would be preposterous.

What is preposterous?

preposterous is a ...

I'm not here to give you French classes.

But to remember your duty.

If women are crazy, the need to take advantage!

Answer, Panisse: Will you marry the girl?

Perfectly!

- Why? - My will!

My God!

you Know that an old who marries a young girl,

is not pretty!

a very disgusting thing.

one thing that makes me sick!

I have some in disgust!

I see what you're thinking!

Fanny will marry because she is beautiful and young!

you'll Be happy rubbing her beautiful fresh skin.

against Your leather, old pig!

Not so!

You disgust me! I am disgusted!

your right one. Stay with disgust.

I did not want to feel this way.

Did that in this case serious and familiar.

behave as a good friend

and not as a bastard.

What if I want to act as a bastard?

If you do not follow the advice of your friend,

I will wait for you at the church door on the wedding day.

- At the exit? - No. At the entrance.

And what'll you say?

The first thing I will say is a hammer on the head!

And then I'l finish you!

I'll throw your remains into the river!

I swear. If you give me a hammer,

i'll kill you.

And it isn't toy revolver !

Since childhood, you torture me, diminishes me

And this tyranny has lasted over 30 years!

And you think that will continue?

you Will prevent this marriage?

With two bullets from a revolver,

i'll blow your head like a nut.

Oh, pity!

you Killed the aqualung.

That serve a lesson to you.

Because I will kill you, like i did now.

Go, go! Go have a glass of water.

you're so scared, you barely stand upright.

I will not talk to you anymore. I'll talk to her.

Go talk to her? Will speak now. Come on!

Fanny.

Caesar wants to talk to you.

What are you doing here?

- What are you doing here? - She'll tell you!

And you don't have to ask. Fanny, you heard?

Cesar wants,by all means , prevent our marriage.

He thinks you belong to him after his son abandoned you.

Say what you think.

Wait, Fanny, don't answer yet.

Not quite, he is acting in faith.

I said simply that you are the bride of Marius.

He left you momentarily.

plus your are waiting he will come back. You know that.

simple. Am I right?

- I can not wait 2 years. - Can Not you?

you're tired, I know. But you love him.

I love him. Panisse know.

But, because of my mother and family, i can not wait.

No, Caesar, I need a husband.

You're telling me this?

Need a husband?

Will you marry the first bastard because he has money?

i could wait 10 years for Marius, if I could.

But I can not anymore.

If you want me Panisse, I am ready to marry.

it's not possible, my God!

That was what you were planning? So you let him go?

- Stop it! - you Prefered the money?

Thankfully Marius went away! You do not love him!

- Shut up! - You shut up!

I'll write and tell him the truth!

If he had any regrets, there's no need for more!

- Caesar, I beg you! - Leave it.

No, Panisse. Tell him everything!

Say what?

If until now he did not understand, this is why he is a Beast.

Understand what?

Tell him!

What is it?

Fanny is in a difficult situation for an unmarried girl.

How so?

And it takes a brave man.

to repair the crime of your adventurous son.

A son?

Are you pregnant from Marius?

How so? She will have a son and i wil take him

and how's that?

He is mine! the son of my son.

And you to want to steal it from me? you're crazy!

My grandson, Fanny! did you think about it?

I thought of my mother and family.

Fuck your mother and your family!

His family is Marius, the child and me!

This man is not part!

shut your mouth.

Get it? Let's go home, Fanny.

No, Caesar. Do you think the right?.

Marius will be back in 2 years.

If I have a child without a husband, my mother will die of shame

No one dies for it!

Everyone knows who is the son of Marius!

Precisely.

Thought that if he left, it was for some reason.

they will say he left because he was not the first.

Or was not sure that the child was his.

If she was forced to marry, I do not stop her.

And I'm here to protect them or defend them.

She'll has a husband in 2 years.

maybe and maybe not.

Say it again, are sure he will marry her?

perfectly, I'm sure.

Since he left, he wrote 2 times. For you.

But in all his letters he spoke to you.

as if i were a stranger.

And in the last letter he told you?

- Do not speak! - How do you know?

If I had spoken, I would have said!

did He talk about coming back? No, he did not talk!

Be honest, tell the truth!

Actually he does not talk much.

He sent her a hello.

Very polite of him.

See how she got Happy with the news.

Everything is resolved.

he sent a "hello".

When he finds out, will want to get married! Or break your face.

it solves nothing.

We do not know if he will come back, let her alone to ge marry.

And if he does not return?

As well, he doesn't come back?

Dare to think of such a thing?

And you dare not to think?

you who manufactures storms and cyclones?

that you loose him at the sea.

when he wants? C�sar ...

If his boat was sinking, can you swear he'll get marry?

there's an 80% chance that this marriage happen.

Let's say 70%.

say 60 or even 50%.

The chance to spoil the child's life is great.

Now nobody knows.

And anyone can marry Fanny.

and give the child a name without being ridiculous.

But when he's born, how it's going to be?

A little bastard and nothing else.

right.

And later, in school he will say:

"My father is a mechanic. And he, who is his father "

He will turn red and with pain: "I have no father."

My God, my God ...

I thought about all this.

I thought of my mother, my family, my son ...

If I become Mrs. Panisse everyone will be happy.

Even Marius.

no , no !

If I marry her, this child will have a father.

And a name. He will be called Panisse.

If, by chance, he called Panisse

could he be called Marius Panisse.

C�sar Marius Panisse!

As you wish, you have to be the godfather.

Thus, being able to take regard it as you want.

And he'll be rich.

this's something that nobody knows because I'm ashamed.

At the cafe, when we talk about our fortunes.

say I have 600,000 francs. But it is not true.

I have more than doubled.

You! You millionaire?

add the store's value , I have 1.5 million.

Fanny did not know, but I'm saying now.

because it's the right time.

And will you leave everything to him?

Sure! my son.

Sure this boy will have a beautiful life.

Even if the other continue sailing for the lifetime.

Anyway, that's what I wrote.

-now you see... - But I need to think.

If I give you the bar, putting it all together.

we will have almost 2 million!

Fanny, you have no idea?

At age of 20, this young man will be able to smoke a cigar one after another.

if he's not a girl

A girl? What do you mean? Your cold feet!

"Long live the newlyweds!"

Not bad!

terrific!

He came from where?

I brought ...

Have to take.

Very well.

Has an!

Oh no, i don't sing In the family there's only one who can sing.

Yes, my father and ...

And everybody.

Everyone.

If i wanted, i could stay. i can put someone in exchange.

What is a swap?

Many would accept, because the salary is very good.

And the service is not difficult.

And we have Chauvaux, he wrote me forever.

He is on the island of Beaut�. Left immediately.

Because he has this desire, you know ...

The desire is away.

And you?

you No longer has that desire?

- Who is it? - Richard, Mrs. Panisse.

The taxi driver.

your husband sent you this bouquet.

and he's telling you he catched the train.

Thank you, Richard.

Good night, Mrs. Panisse.

is it true that your huband is traveling?

Why did not you tell me?

Are you afraid of me?

No, Marius, I'm not afraid of you.

telling you won't do any good. and it doesn't worth it to talk about the past.

No need to start!

i'm the one who's going to start

Why did you married so fast with Panisse?

Why my father never told me that you have a son?

And how could Panisse be a parent at that age?

- I do not know. - i can't imagine that.

- that won't help anyone. - Now I know the truth.

This is my son!

And I'm a criminal.

It was not a crime, it was not your fault.

why didn't you tell me? why didn't you write to me?

you were gone for 5 years.

Because of my mother, I told Honor�.

He accepted me.

My sweet Fanny! Forgive me!

I beg you!

i forgave you long time ago. you don't understand my love.

Not mine.

you did not know how much I loved you. I was happy.

I know.

as in your first letters.

I did not think much of you.

We had finished and ...

And then, little by little, it begins.

- all nights, I thought of you. - Do not talk, Marius.

I began to think I did something stupid

But tell me: "What is left of love,"

"It will pass."

but it's not in the past.

On the contrary.

as we sail in the South Seas,

i was getting worse.

Every time i closed my eyes, it return.

i saw you with your seafood.

I saw you walking by the pier with your hat.

Heard your footsteps, felt your scent.

Do not talk, Marius. this is not right.

i saw you everywhere.

And then ...

One day, a terrible thing happened.

I Could not think of you. I Forgot your face!

i was Looking for you, but not seen you more!

I missed you!

So ...

I asked my father to send me your picture.

i landed in Tahiti

I received the letter, my father had sent a photo.

It was your wedding.

It had been a month since you had married.

i didn't know why!

I cried.

I also cried Marius.

I came back for you!

I thought you maybe don't love Panisse.

and you still love me?

now I see I was right, Fanny.

You still love me! Let me kiss you.

No, Marius! We can not.

It is not right!

no!

no.

Do not do it, my children.

Panisse is honest and he isn't here.

wouldn't you be ashame in front of the family !

It would not be good.

Who told you I was here?

It wasn't very difficult to guess.

Why didn't you told me about the child?

The child?

What child?

I told him everything.

-you Should not have done that. - And why?

Why do you have to hide about my son?

Right? I do not know if you qualify.

Listen, Dad ... I love you,

but right now, I want you to leave me alone.

As rightly said, Marius!

Note that this is the man.

you don't respect your father anymore!

normal.

you have nothing to do in here. Now, come on.

- No. - get out of here!

I'm staying.

Panisse has had to do with it .

Welcomed your wife. and he gave a name to your son.

And while he is traveling, you came steal his wife?

it's all about the family

Buccaneers, smugglers, imbeciles ...

Even a simple bar owner like your father.

But i've never been a rascal.

So, will you stay?

I will

me too.

Your father is right, Marius.

Fanny, are you in there?

When the train was leaving, I met Dr. Gallot ...

See,

we have visitors

- Good evening, Marius. - Good evening, Mr. Panisse.

So you came back?

A short visit.

What happened at the station you did not catch the train?

Imagine that i found Dr. Gallon

and he said that the son of Miette.

have this pertussis!

His life is in danger and the mother did not say anything!

They play together that morning.

And to catch pertussis, i came to check on the baby.

- And how is he? - A little warm.

- Oh my God! - Honor�, don't be afraid.

i'm afraid because you're saying he's warm

take the temperature.

is this visit is going to be long?

It depends.

Depends on what?

Fanny and you sir.

At least he is straight and outspoken.

I do not understand right.

Before and even far Fanny was always considered my fiancee.

concidered?

a beautiful word.

I do not consider it at all.

It is just my wife and the mother of my child.

Are you sure that is your child?

Listen, Marius.

Two years ago I hope you'll come back.

i've not sleep a night without thinking: "and what if he comes back tomorrow?"

"If you try to take everything from me, what should I say?"

for Two years ago, I am preparing the answers.

But seeing you here I do not know what else to say.

Do not worry, he is not sick. He's fine.

good

Come sit, Fanny.

In short, what do you want?

Listen, Mr. Panisse

I made a crazy thing two years ago.

Now, because I did something stupid, I will ruin the lives of others?

What other?

Fanny, I, my father and my son.

- And what will happen to me? - you were happy for the last two years.

Happy by doing a good deed.

I appreciate what you did.

Now you need to have courage.

and return what belongs to me.

Oh, Marius. you're Going too fast!

He has the courage to ask others to sacrifice.

Here is my response:

Seeing you two together, I see that the nuisance.

To be friendly, i should drown accidentally.

Fanny, I will willingly do it if it makes you happy.

But i will not see the boy.

I refuse to drown.

I totally refuse!

Honor�...

Nobody asked you that.

No, but I just asked myself.

Fanny, don't have mercy on me.

If you love this guy,

if you think you be happy with him.

it's the worse for me, you're free.

There is nothing selfish.

But what about the child?

The child is ours!

do you Want me to give you the child?

Why don't you ask to take my eyes?

My liver, my arm, my heart?

Very generous:

"you give me the woman, but the child wil be with you!"

No child ,she will not lose him. no!

If you are honest, give me back my son!

no, Marius. You won't take the child.

Perhaps the strength to talk to me, about her

maybe she will ask me ...

Do not do it!

You are young, you'll have others.

But leave it with me. my only son.

My first and last.

But Honor�, who will take it? do you know that i'm that bad?

If it were an ordinary child,

but it is the wonder of the world!

This whole speech is very beautiful.

- He coughed! - He coughed?

- I did not hear. - No one hears.

But I hear him!

Now he's gone!

He is coughing is more interesting than our converstaion.

He is mine. I do have to worry.

Precisely, but do not worry.

Marius, it is not yours.

You were the father before his birth, but then ...

Being a parent is forever.

no.

When he was born, he weighed 4 pounds.

Four pounds of meat from his mother.

Now he weighs 9 pounds.

So 5 pounds. You know what are there?

Love

Love, however, is slight.

Need much to add 5 pounds.

I gave my part.

She also.

But who else gave him, was Panisse.

And you, what did you give?

Life.

Yes, life. Dogs also give life.

no, Marius.

You do not want this child.

What did was a pleasure.

You do not give life. He was taken from you.

- It's not the same thing. - But who is the father?

the one who gives the life or who pays for the bottles?

The father ...

the one who loves.

You, Marius,

you were the father of a child without a name.

who was Born in shame and despair. Where is he?

He does not exist, he is not mine.

My born on a bed surrounded by family

Can bite, but this child you do not have.

He belongs to a family.

You will also betray me?

betray you?

I?

No, Marius.

I did not betray you. i didn't betray your love.

In front of your father, I can tell the whole truth.

I love you.

i Still love you.

I love you as before, maybe even more.

I see your smile every morning on my son's face

When you appeared at the window, and reached out,

i would have gone with you anywhere.

But I have my son, Marius.

He is ours. Let's take him.

I do not have this right. Panisse saved me.

At birth, he held my hand.

until now he still has the marks of my fingernails.

These marks are in his hands,

not in yours.

Go away! Go back to the sea.

i want from you is to go, and Let me here with our son.

However,

if it's any consolation,

know that every night, you have a woman who thinks of you.

A woman who wanted to lie by your side

smell of your hair and sleep in your warmth.

And you, Dad?

What do you want me to do?

that you would not lose your train.

You are also putting me out?

No, I'm not.

Fanny also wants me to go.

Do not be mean to her. She loves you, she told you.

But your heart beats in one direction and there's other reason.

no

no, Marius.

you were the one who left not me , not her.

Was not Panisse.

But you are a danger on your child's future.

he is who is sending you away.

And you won't stop me?

Daddy ,you don't love me anymore?

But yes, of course I love you.

big fool!

It turns out that you are great.

and he is small, very small.

why, incidentally, he is strong.

This small one take all of us.

When it is honored

do not expect to be taken from us.

We give them.

Say goodbye to Mrs. Panisse.

Goodbye, Fanny.

Goodbye, Marius.

I will never love anyone but you.

I never loved anyone but you.

Come, my son.
