"Waiting for Someone" "You walk like Arletty." "Oh yeah?" "How does she walk?" "Shoulders back, and her back round." "Exactly like you." "When I noticed that, it really turned me on." "It's strange, but I don't know why." "Don't you prefer girls who walk like this?" "That's a nice dress." "I haven't seen it before." " It's a skirt." " Well, I like it." "It looks a bit like a lampshade but I like it." "You've lost weight, no?" "It's okay, I needed to lose some." "What time is it?" "It's exactly... 4:12 pm." "I have to go." "You look silly with that lipstick." " Coming down with me?" " No, I'm meeting someone upstairs." "But I think I'll take a cat nap first like the sailors do." "Sleep tight." " See you soon." " On Friday, I think." "See you, Louis." "See you." "Hey!" "I'll drop you off here because I'm going straight, okay?" "And the name of Zeus's baby?" "Hercules." "You have to answer faster than Angie." "She's quick." "I don't know the other one's name." "There wasn't time to name him." "Why?" " Because he died." " And why did he die?" "What happened to him?" "Zeus's wife..." "Zeus's wife, not Hercules!" "She was jealous because she had no children." "She threw two big snakes into the crib..." "And then after that Amphitryon's child died." " And Zeus's child strangled them." " That's right." "I'm not hurting you, am I?" "No, dear." "Finished!" "Why don't we go for a walk in the garden?" "How about it?" "No." "Are you sure?" "Tell me, dear, how tall are you?" "5 foot 7." " Excellent." " Yeah, that's tall." "Why don't you go for a walk?" "It sounds like a good idea." "Who is he?" "Come on!" "I don't know." "I don't know him." "Never seen him before." "You're cruel." "It's me, mother." "It's Louis." "Your son, Louis." "Don't cry too much or you'll get me sobbing too." "But it does you good." "I don't care for that." "It's true I've never seen you cry!" " You must have cried sometime?" " In hiding." "You're reading Sentimental Education?" "What's got into you?" "Nothing, it's just for fun." "I've already read it four times." "Sentimental Education four times!" "I don't see what's..." "No, good for you!" " I get a brownie point then?" " Yes." "So, you're reading Flaubert?" "Yes, and you know why?" "Because he was born Dec. 12th, like me." "So I said, "Hey, I'll read Flaubert"." "Lucky it was Flaubert." "Which way are you going?" "It beats taking the boat like in those times." ""To the shareholders great shock."" "Yeah..." "it could be better." ""The shareholders were flabbergasted."" " No, that's too informal, isn't it?" " I don't know." "Put that the shareholders got screwed in the ass." "The shareholders are absolutely stunned." "That's not bad at all." "I really don't want to write this article." "On nights like this, I'd like to sleep until the day after tomorrow." "It's my asthma." "I need to sit up." " Can't you hear it?" " Yes, I hear it." "It must be because of the dust." "We didn't do any dusting today." " There's always some dust." " Yeah but..." "Would you like me to work out a bit more?" " Like that?" " Yeah." "I'd feel strangely safe." "I'd never be afraid of being hassled on the street." "Stop that with your eyes." "You look like an old coot!" "Hello." "Hello!" "Marlboro Lights." "I'd like that chewing gum, the green one, please." "Can I buy you a drink?" "No, thank you." "Hello!" "Go on in, after I take care of this, I'll take care of prettier things." "Natasha, hurry it up, dear!" "I know." "Don't give me that look..." "It makes me want to kiss you." "We'd lose time..." "the clients would complain." " So, move it!" " Excuse me." "Too bad because you smell good." "I avoided a lawsuit." " Lawsuit?" " My neighbor and the cellar." "I'm relieved because with alimony and all..." "I'm up to my neck." " You want a drink?" " No thanks." "Hot legs... bunny butt!" "Bunny what?" "You have a cute little butt." " Hello." " Hello." " Stéphane?" " Yes." " You don't recognize me." " Yes, I do." "I used to tutor math to your older sister." "Yes." " I knew you when you were little." " Yes, I remember." " You had really long hair." " Ah yes, that's true." "Yeah." "And how are your parents?" "Well..." "I think they're okay." " So what are you doing now?" " Well, I've been traveling." "I was in Paris and Marseille." "I haven't been back for 2 years." "I'm looking for a job, hopefully it will work out." "Of course it will." "When I blink my eyes really hard like this..." "It hurts my neck here." "I usually don't get nervous, but..." "In my opinion, you're screwed!" "That's just my opinion." " Thanks a lot." " Well, I hope it works out." "I'll give you his number." "Tell him I sent you." "I know he's looking for someone." "His name's Bouchardon, like the sculptor." " Are you okay?" " Yeah." " You look sad." " No." "Why didn't you wait in the bar?" "I can't stand that place anymore." "Everybody stares at me." "But we'll have to find another place to meet." "I don't like waiting on the sidewalk." " What's wrong?" " I'm not in the mood." "You aren't?" " Let's go for a walk?" " You want to walk?" "Yeah, why not?" "Come on." "You ball-breaker!" "A walk is nice for a change!" "Bullshit." " Is something wrong?" " No, but I'm feeling down today." "Some clients are making some nasty requests." "Like what?" "Too nasty to say." "I had to laugh it off." " You refused?" " Of course." "Those guys have money to burn." "They offer me huge sums of money." "Why don't you take them for walks?" "If you're going to act like that, I'll go home." "Come on..." "I like walks." "Did you know I'm almost broke." "We won't see each other anymore then." "If I were rich, I'd see you every day." "Even several times a day." " Really?" " Yeah." " You know what I'd like?" " No." "When I die, I want them to put a woman in my coffin." "She'd be dead too, obviously!" "And they'd put us in naked in this position." "For all eternity." " You think that would be nice?" " Of course it would." "It's nicer than stuffing each one in his own corner." "It's too bad we're not the same age." "Because I wish it were you they'd put in the coffin with me." "Are you finished?" "Sir, could you watch my dog?" "The cops are after me!" "I can't." "Just for 2 minutes!" "I'll be right back, please!" " I can't." " Just for 2 minutes!" "But dogs aren't allowed in the park!" "What was your last job?" "Last year, I was in Marseille... working in a movie theater." "I got to see films every day." " Why did you come back?" " Because I got sick of there." "Sit down." "And I know my way around here." "Do you think you can run the machine?" "It's not rocket science." "It doesn't look too difficult." "It's just a photocopier." "When I was 16, I apprenticed as a carpenter." "I imagine paper is like wood, only easier." "Maybe there's no comparison." " What's your name?" " Stéphane." "Oh right..." "Stéphane." "Why did you give up carpentry?" " I wanted to do something else." " What?" "I don't know." "No, thank you." "What are we going to do?" "We'll go back to that park." "That girl should be easy to find." "Did you see if he's tattooed?" " Where... in his ear?" " Yeah." "I don't want to look in there!" "You idiot!" "I can't see anything." "No, there's nothing there." "Damn, I don't have a bowl." "Here, use this." "Here you go!" " Look, he's eating." " Of course he's eating." "He's a dog, and that's dog food." "He's good looking, huh?" " I like his eyes." " Don't get too attached to him." "The register seems short." "Do you know why?" "Uh, no." "I'll count it again." " Félix, didn't you get your ice cream?" " No." "Would you stop, please!" "Please, "Sir"." "No, I'm just kidding." "Excuse me." "I'll take it out myself." "He walks around and looks up at the sky." "And there's this big star..." "How strange!" " A big star?" " And it's hot." "He looks again and the star is bigger and it's getting hotter." "Maybe soon it's a star that will explode." " The earth explodes?" " No." " That's good!" " Then he goes to see a scientist." "Hi there!" "What pretty eyes you have!" "You have a nice cat!" " Are you new in town?" " Yes." "Where are you from?" "Boss, are you reading Flaubert?" "Yes, I'm reading Flaubert." "I've read it 4 times, by the way!" "Excuse-me." "Is this yours?" "I don't think so." " No, where was it?" " By your feet." "No, it's not mine." "Finders, keepers!" "Yeah, okay." "Then it's my round..." "Another beer?" "That's nice of you!" "Okay..." "Two beers!" " You're not from here, are you?" " I am, but I've been away." " You do look familiar." " Oh, yeah?" "I'm from the area but I haven't lived here for a year." " The bank." " I'm not here!" "I had bought up some inventory but it didn't work out." "So now, I'm unemployed." "I shouldn't laugh about it because it's difficult." "Do you live alone?" "Sorry, maybe I'm being nosy." "No, I live with my wife and kid." "Luckily my wife works." "Part time - she's still a student." " You have a kid?" " Yeah." "Actually it's not my kid." "We're not married, but it's like we were." " Well, it's like a marriage." " Yeah." "It's funny because the more I look at you..." "I don't know." "Did you go to high school in Courville?" " What's your name?" " Alexandre." " Alexandre what?" " Bouchardon, like the sculptor." "I guess I don't know you." " My name's Tony." " My pleasure." "And you?" "What... me?" "What do you do?" "Not much..." "and it's a long story." "There's always a long story." "It does this sometimes." "When it happens, check everything." "The crank... the key..." " Okay?" " Yeah, yeah." "Then I cut..." "outside, outside." "Then it lifts up automatically." "And you can't cut your fingers... because your hands are on the buttons." "Did you hear me?" "Did you hear me?" "Black outside button, black inside one." "And it didn't work." "Wait!" "Let's see..." " You want a banana?" " No, I'm fine." "Too bad." "They're really good." "How many do you eat a day?" " Eight to ten." " All that?" "You look pitiful with your sandwich." "This is horrible." "Is this for children?" "It's the Brothers Grimm." "Hey, did you see what time it is?" "Time for bed!" "Oh, please read some more." "No, it's late." "Go to sleep." "Good night." "What are you doing here?" " You want to come in?" " Yes." "Jesus!" " What?" " What happened?" " Nothing." " Don't say "nothing"!" "Wait." "We have to be quiet." "My son is sleeping." "Take off your coat." "So, what happened?" "Let me see." "I accepted to do something with a client I didn't know." "And he was more violent than I expected." "That was stupid!" "Watch out." "This is going to sting." "Why did you accept that?" "He offered me 400 euros." "It was a one off." "You wouldn't understand." "Sure." " A nobody like me can't act all pious." " What do you mean by that?" "You think I enjoy cleaning you up at 1 a.m.?" "If you want, I'll go." "Don't be silly." "If I go back to the hotel like this, they'll throw me out." "That prick!" "Who is he?" "Nobody... it's not important." " He paid me my 400 euros." " It's not worth it!" "Stop moving." "There you go." "Do you want a towel?" " Do I look okay?" " Let me see." "I look okay, don't I?" "There's some towels over there." "Feeling better?" "Does he live around here?" "He was just passing through, like a lot of them." "Don't worry." "It could have been worse." " Life stinks!" " Don't say that." "No, it's true." "It stinks." "It's okay." "It's nothing new." " I should leave this town." " Are you scared?" "No... well, not really." "Anyhow, I agreed to do it." "Some girls are armed, but not me." "One girl even goes around with tear gas." "But seriously, it's not the Bois de Boulogne." " And besides I know my clients." " Like tonight." "That's what I meant!" "It wasn't a big deal!" "You should eat something." "Are you hungry?" "I can't believe you don't have a man in your life." "It wasn't that long ago..." "I wouldn't charge some guys." "I mean..." "I liked some of them more than others." " And now..." " You want to fall in love?" " Maybe." " Give up all your clients and all that?" "But not me of course." " Really!" " For me it's different." " Why is it different?" " I don't know." " I'm sure I'm not the only one." " What do you mean?" "I bet you see other girls." " No." " Right!" "I swear." "Why?" "Are you jealous?" "Yeah, I'm jealous." "Your boy is really cute." "Were you like that when you were little?" "I don't know." "Where are his toys?" "At his mother's." "He doesn't have any here?" "No." "He comes over with his books." "I read to him." "We have a good time." "Do you want to sleep here?" "No, I'm going home." "I'll take you back." "Come on!" "Won't you let me sleep in?" "No." "No." "Not your carrot!" "Enough already!" "So..." "How are things going with... with... with your husband?" "Things are alright..." "but he sleeps too much." "Work takes up a lot of his time, and that kind of ruins... ruins his married life." "Watch it!" "Hi kids." "Have any of you seen a young lady with a big black dog?" "No?" "You haven't?" "Any luck?" "No." "Excuse-me, do you know this dog?" "Because he's not ours." "We're looking for his owner." "I've never seen him before, but he's nice looking." "Thanks." " Do you have a light?" " No, and keep back!" "See you later..." "and bravo!" ""Bravo" to you!" "What the hell was that?" "That girl is crazy." "Did you notice?" "It has almost disappeared." "I have no appointments until 10pm." "Well." " What's wrong?" " Nothing." " Come on, I'll buy you a drink." " Now?" " Yeah, you said you were free." " I know, but I'm a bit tired." "I need some peace and quiet." "That was the idea - a quiet drink." "But it's okay, I understand." "Leave it for next time..." "and I'll buy the drinks." " Really?" " Yes, I promise." "See you again soon." "See you, Louis." " Hey, how are you?" " Good." " What are you up to?" " Working." " You work here?" " Yeah." " Doing what?" " Photocopies." "Voilà." "I got this ready for you." " What do I owe you?" " We'll settle that later." " You okay?" " Yeah." " You don't look okay?" " I'm fine." "I'll be right back." "Hello." "Dammit!" "This isn't funny!" "Hello Stéphane." "I brought a little something for your husband." "How nice of you!" "Come around the front." "Hello." "It's a little present for him, and for you too by the way." "That's nice." "It's whiskey." "He told me about Mr. Bouchardon, and I just got paid, so..." "Thank you, he'll be very happy..." "but you didn't have to." " Is he here?" " No, he's still at work." " Does he like whiskey?" " Yes, he'll be very happy." " Well then, I'll be going." " Goodbye." " Stéphane?" " Yes." "Sorry, I forgot to ask..." "Would you like a glass of wine?" " Sure, as long as it's not a bother." " No, I was just about to have one." " Unless you're in a hurry?" " No, I'm not." "Come in then." "Thanks." "Sit down." "I've been doing some rearranging." "My hands are all dusty." "It's good to put things in order." "Oh, yes." "It eases the mind too." "It's tiring though." "I felt like changing things..." "I moved almost all the furniture." " Would you like some help?" " No, that's okay." "Really, I could help with the heavy furniture." "I don't look strong, but I am." "No, it's okay." "I can manage." "Actually..." "I did want to move my father's table upstairs." "I could use your help, but I don't want to trouble you." "It's no trouble at all." "Where is the table?" "No, take your time and finish your wine." " You have a beautiful house." " Yeah, it's beautiful." "Well I meant..." "I think it's beautiful too." "Are you still teaching?" "Yes, I teach the 1st grade at Boileau primary school." " Do you have any kids?" " No, no kids." " Let's move that table?" " Yes, let's go." "It's this one." "Are we going upstairs?" "Yes, but let me go first." "It should be easier." "Here we go!" "It's heavy." "Are you okay?" "I gave you the harder spot." "You're carrying all the weight." "We have to put it this way to get it through." "Let's put it over there." "Just this." "Your face is so beautiful." "This is Sabine's answering machine." "Please leave a message." "Hello..." "Excuse-me." " Are there any messages for me?" " No, no messages." " For Louis Renard." "Are you sure?" " I'm sure." "This is Sabine's answering machine." "Please leave a message." " Thanks, it's really nice of you." " No problem." " What day is today?" " The 12th." " You're reading Flaubert?" " Yes, I am!" "Why does everyone care that I read Flaubert?" "Sorry, I'm on edge." "Thanks, I appreciate this." "I'll pay you back as soon as I can." "But I have so many bills." "They transport the sheep in these trucks." "It's horrible!" "Did you expect them to go in a limousine?" "No, I'm not some kind of hippie." "I'm not a radical." "But cruelty to animals disgusts me." "Animals have always eaten each other." "Why shouldn't we do the same?" "Especially when we're more..." "we're more..." "I don't know what you mean." "What's the word?" " Sensitive?" " No, not sensitive." " Humane?" " Yes, humane!" "If you had seen the images, you wouldn't call it humane." "Ever see a lion rip apart an antelope?" "I'm sure the antelope would rather get on the truck with his buddies." " What do you think, Jean-Philippe?" " What?" "What do you think?" "I like meat, but if Agnes doesn't want to eat it, it's her choice." "It's not a choice, I just don't feel like it!" " Then try it." " No, I don't feel like it." "You're making her laugh." "She still thinks that's funny!" "Obviously, I can't touch my sister like that, although..." "For a school teacher..." "Stop that!" " What do you feed him, pet food?" " No, meat." "He's a bear." "He's not a dog, he's a bear." "He eats everything." "He's not fussy." "Watch out that he doesn't bite you when you feed him!" "He's harmless." "This is Sabine's answering machine." "Please leave a message." " Who are you calling?" " None of your business." " We have to go now." " Already?" "Yes, Jean-Philippe has to work." " Are you all right?" " Yes, I'm fine." "What's the matter?" "Nothing." "So you're okay?" "Thirsty?" "Hello, do you know if Sabine is here today?" "I don't know Sabine." "You know Sabine." " She's been here 50 times with me." " Sorry, I don't remember." "Okay, I understand." "I'm looking for Sabine." "Have you seen her?" "Not for a long time." "Hi everybody!" "I've got one for you..." "What do you call a cop on a sun-bed?" "A pig in heat." " And how are you?" " Not bad." "Veronica?" "..." "It's me." "How is everything?" "Same here." "I wanted to talk to Félix." "Could you put him on?" "How's my boy?" "I just wanted you to know I miss you." "Anyway, I'll see you Saturday." "Yes." "Are you alright?" "I miss you, little guy..." "Lots of love..." "Goodbye." "Alexandre!" "What are you doing?" "Do you live here?" " Yeah, what brings you here?" " I was visiting a friend nearby." " Oh yeah, where?" " That house on the 2nd corner." " So what are you up to?" " Just doing some handiwork." "It's like I'm already retired!" " Come in for a beer!" " I shouldn't impose." "Don't be silly, come in!" "So what's new?" "Uh, not much." "Come in here." " Your girlfriend's not here?" " No, it's just me and the baby girl." "I'm used to it." "She's sleeping." " Do you like kids?" " Yeah." " I liked when I was a kid." " Oh, yeah?" "I didn't have as many worries." "It's true you look like a guy with a lot of worries." "I don't mean to vex you." "It's useful to worry about things sometimes." "I should do the same." "Come if you want..." "I'll just be a minute." "That's okay" "Where's your toilet?" "Upstairs on the left." "And this is Margot." "Margot, Alexandre." "Alexandre, Margot." "Let's go downstairs." "I was thinking of something." "Actually it's good I ran into you." " I've decided to leave." " Really, you're leaving?" "I was thinking of telling my boss about you." "He'll need someone to take my place." "Well, it's only temporary." "His employee comes back in Autumn." "But it might help you to make ends meet." "It surely would." "You'll see... it's easy." "Wait, it has to work out first." "Well, it worked out for me." " Hi..." "Is she awake?" " Yeah." " The supermarket was too crowded." " That's okay, we'll go tomorrow." " Did you feed her?" " Not yet." "I'm with a friend." "What are you doing?" "What?" "So, it's a girl?" "What the fuck do you care?" "You named her Margot?" "Farida, stop it!" "Stop it!" "..." "Calm down!" "Get out!" "Get the fuck out!" "Get out of here!" "Beat it!" "You heard her..." "Get out!" "Give me a kiss." "But I want a real kiss with tongue and all." " Behave yourself!" " Please, sir, give me a kiss." "No." "If you don't kiss me, I'll eat from your plate like a dog." "Everyone is looking." "Stop it." "Stop!" "..." "Everyone is looking." "Nobody's looking." "We're transparent." "I want some pasta." "No, that was on the eye." "It doesn't count." "Kiss me." "Okay, that's enough." "Now eat your food!" "Stop drinking and eat!" "Sit!" "That makes you look real pretty." "Honest?" "Am I pretty today?" "Of course, you're pretty." "My stomach's upset." "But I didn't eat any cabbage." "Wait, be quiet!" "I don't hear anything." "No one is around." "We could go to jail for this!" "Are there any wild animals around here?" "Only you." "Are you okay?" " Did you hurt yourself?" " No." "Are you cold?" "Hey!" "Where's the dog?" "Damn!" " Where did he go?" " I don't know." " You could have watched him!" " What about you?" "He can't be far, he was here a minute ago." " Do you see him?" " No." "Here boy!" "Here boy!" "Here boy!" " Maybe we should call the police." " They have better things to do." "That's not fair!" "What could he be doing?" "He's walking around, having a good time." "He's not stressed out like you." "It's getting dark." "Tony, here's Mr Bouchardon's number (my former boss)" "Thank you." "Stéphane" "Hello." " Did you just get back in town?" " No, I'm leaving." "Really?" "Perhaps you tried calling me, but I haven't been working lately." "Yes, I tried once..." "Maybe twice." "Would you like a coffee?" "No, I have to catch a train." "So, are you leaving...?" "I'm leaving." "Louis, I didn't tell you... but something has happened in my life." "Oh, great." "Something good or...?" "I've made the decision that it was something good." "I'm pregnant." "But... was it planned?" "Not at all." "Do you know who?" "I sure do." "It only takes one broken condom." " You're kidding!" " They break fairly often." "But in this case, I remember the day, the guy, and..." "I know my body." "I know." "So the guy isn't me?" "Nope!" "Does he know?" "I don't even know his name." "So you're going alone?" "Yeah." " Can I take you to the station?" " Yes." "It would make me happy if someday when you come back, if you'd stop to say hello." "Sure." "What are you going to do?" "For a living?" "I don't know yet." "I don't think it's bad not to know." "Are you proud of me?" "No, why should I be proud?" "That's not the right expression." "No, I'm happy... for you." "I really am." "All the happiness coming your way..." "You deserve it." "You know I mean it." "You're nice." "No, I'm not nice." " Do you need any money?" " No, I'm okay." "Are you sad?" "No, are you kidding!" "I'd have to be a total schmuck." " What?" " You make me laugh." "I really like you, Louis." "Yeah!" "When is your train?" "It leaves... in eight minutes." "You won't tell me, huh?" "..." "what you feel?" "What?" "Your foolish male pride." ""Robust pride"..." "like Flaubert calls it." "You look like a guy who reads Flaubert, I swear!" " It's the first time you kissed me." " Yeah." "I'm going to miss you..." "you little bitch." "Don't look at me!" "I'll be thinking of you, Louis." "Subtitles by JM2L and Gianni777"
