"I was walking... on the street... I didn't know where to go." "I didn't know what to do." "Then I thought... I should talk to you, Jean-Christophe?" "I need to talk to someone that understands my story..." " it 's a beautiful story." "You're lovely." "This color suits you good." "It looks good with your hair." "I met a woman who had hair like yours." "I remember..." "yeah, I remember." "I like remembrances a lot." "And to help it, I drink." "I don't know why, but... wine helps us to remember the past." "You know... a sick old man's day is boring." "So I created a rule for myself:" "Wait until night comes." "I sit down, open a bottle and start to remember." "Marie-Jo..." "You can't suffocate me with your story." "Keep it for later... when it 'll become just a remembrance." "You'll see, itwill help you to live." "Itwill help you, just as it helps me... to wait... to wait for the night to come." "See you, Marie-Jo." "The... stars... were coming out." "The day was ending." "I thought it 'd be better to ring the bell." "What are you doing?" "Come in. lt 's cold." "Should I close the gate?" "I love you." "Who was it?" "Good afternoon, Julie." " How are you, Sylvain?" " Fine, thank you." "Leave your briefcase there." "I don't feel like looking atyour face." "What did you come here for?" "." "Couldn'tyou come when daddy wasn't here?" "Do you think he can stand to see you and not suffer?" "." " l came back." " He threw you out and you came back!" "Was it fun?" "Did you fuck a lot?" "Yeah... itwas nice with Marco." "You make me sick." "If itwas so nice, why did you come back?" " There was nothing I could do." "Yes, you could do something." "And that 's whatyou did." "You showed everybody you could do differently." "Now everybody knows that someone fell in love with you." "This makes you feel young again." "But it doesn't change the fact thatyou're old and ugly." "She came back to stay... until the next time." " lsn't it?" " Sylvain is waiting for you." "He can wait!" "And you!" "Aren'tyou going to say anything?" "She abandons you, makes you suffer... comes back and you accept her with open arms." "You're old too..." "old and ugly." "And you're disgusting too." "You both make me sick." "Yes, make me sick." "This will pass." "It needs patience..." "She doesn't understand." "Why?" "Do you understand?" "In an hour, okay?" "Not before." "There's a lot of traffic in that neighborhood." "Thank you, Carmelle." "It 's alright." "You didn't bring anything?" " No." "Follow me, please." "Should have waited in the bedroom." "In the back, please. lt 's against the rules to go in the front." " l wanted to kiss you." " Come in, please." "Kiss me!" "You look pale." "I've got to go." " Are you coming back?" "Yes." "I didn't give you enough love." "Don't say that." "We spend such short time together!" "I love you, Marco." "It 's very good." "It tasted better with more pepper." "If you put too much pepper, you can't taste the flavor." " Aren'tyou eating, Marie-Jo?" "Yes, I am." "It 's delicious." "How is college?" "I'm so stupid." " ls it too hard, Sylvain?" " Not that much." "What aboutyou, Julie?" "How is college?" "If I don't pass the final exams, we'll be together next year." " Thatwould be a pity." " We want to be together." "Forgive me, Julie." "I love your daddy, I love Marco." "What can I do?" "It 's not my fault." "Your father suffers." "Marco too." "And you suffer too." "And Sylvain must be tired of his mother-in-law glimmerings." "I'm tired of that too." "I'd like to be happy too, serene... I'd like my daughter to look at me... not only to say good morning and good night." "I'd like that only one man could satisfy my heart." "When you love 2 men, it gets empty." "Loving only one, makes it stronger." "Loving two men, weakens it." "You can't imagine how much." "I met Marco again." "I can't live without him." "What can we do?" "Did you take my name out?" "No. I'll paint it again." "I'm waiting for the stencil." "You can give another name if you want to." "You should never change the name." "Don't do that." "It brings bad luck." "Listen... I can't stand it anymore, Marie-Jo." "I can't stand it." "I have terrible thoughts, horrible things in my head." "Dirty thoughts." "I feel repulsion of myself." "I wanted so much to accept... I wished I could share you... I tried, I really tried." "I know." "I was ready to face everything, if you had stayed with me." "My mind could accept it, but not my heart." "I can't." "I love you." "I'm not mad atyou..." "at anybody." "But I can't..." "I can't." " lf Daniel died..." " Shut up." "I can't stop thinking about this." "I metwidows who suffered a lotwith the husband's death." "Then, they met other men and had the right to love again." "I've never wished Daniel's death." "But this thought obsesses me." "It 's terrible." "Why?" "I don't know." " Have a nice trip!" "You too." " Where are we going?" " l don't know." "You can take them." "It 's your mother's mobile." " What?" " ln there." "Don't hang up, Marco." "It 's Julie." "You don't have to call anymore." "She died!" "My father too." "Both are dead!"
