"Every man for yourself" " Did you enjoy Le Tréport?" " I'm sure he did. 17.60 please." " Mrs Lamier, what will it be for you?" " 3 sausages, please." " Good choice!" "I have Morvandaise today!" "I'll tell you." "With a bit of vinegar and potatoes it's a delight." "Don't eat the knot, of course." "Just kidding." "How much?" " 4 bon vivant." " Let me know if you liked it." "Are you okay, Mr Berger?" "What's gotten into him?" "Roland, what's going on?" "Teeth!" "I forgot me teeth!" "Your teeth?" "Yeah!" "Didn't you know I have teeth?" "Butchers don't only have knives." "They also have teeth." " Gilles, take care of Mrs..." " Yes, Mr." "Tell me if you liked it." "A butcher shall be cured for his aching teeth!" "Your teeth ache?" "Destroy it!" "Destroy it!" "Destroy it!" "Destroy it all!" "All!" "I'm destroying it!" "I'm destroying it!" "I'm destroying it!" "I'm destroying it!" "Mind your back!" "So?" "Nice." "Good-looking." "It's my first one." "I improvised." "You're talented, René." "I couldn't refuse." "He's given me so much meat." "First choice for ten years." "It counts." "Sure." "What do you think of the cross?" "A cross should be good for a Communion." "Correct?" "Correct." "This or Santa?" " A cross is better." " I thought so." " Nothing to say?" " No, it's no." "It's not tilting, it's the most important." "A tilting cake may deviate one from God." " Really?" " Of course!" "It'd be bad." "Good." "To the fridge!" "We'll slice it tomorrow." "How will he be dressed?" "Anyone here?" "Hey!" "Anyone here?" "Oh my God..." "Help!" "Help!" "Up there!" "Help!" "Help!" "Shit..." "It's for me..." "Fuck!" "I was still digesting." "Hold on!" "I'm coming!" "I'm here." " Leave me alone!" " Hold tight!" "I'm with you." " Let go of me!" " Jesus!" "Stop moving!" "Fuck!" "Not like that!" "You okay?" "I don't know yet." "You?" "I'm fine." "Sorry, I've forgotten." " What?" " Swimming." "I used to be good at swimming." "Especially the Indian one." "But it was in summertime..." "It's different in summertime." "Wait, I'll call someone." "Forget it." "I've tried a bit earlier." "But it seems that you..." "You're a good swimmer." "Am I mistaken?" "Move or you'll be sick." "Would you mind to give me my shoes?" "Not that they are precious, but my feet are saggy." "Are you gonna be alright?" "Yes, I'm okay." "But I'm not so young anymore." "I was so good in summertime." "No one could beat my Indian swimming." "After you!" "It's me." "Are you with someone?" "Just asking." "I just wanted to tell you I did it." "Yes, I did!" "You don't believe me?" "Listen." "So?" "What?" "It's water!" "No, I'm not dead." "I did it without dying." "I'm giving you another chance." "What do you mean "where"?" "What's the name of the river?" " Saint-Martin." " Saint-Martin River." " It's a canal." " I did it in a canal!" "Now listen to me." "Either I come back or I really leave." "Okay?" "Think about it and call 42 58 16 14 back." "If you don't call back, I'll really do it again!" "You hear?" "She needs time." "It may be a little bit too small but at least it's dry." "Who's this?" "Grace Kelly." " For real?" " Of course." "Who else?" "Watch the quality and the elegance of the hair." " She didn't need perm." " Really?" "I only love canned duck." "It's like peas." "Canned, it's fine." "Fresh, it's tasteless." "Fresh products will kill gastronomy." "What is more boring than an apple?" "Or a leek." "Seriously, a leek!" " Isn't it ringing?" " No." "It's ringing!" "Hello?" "Hello?" "I'd rather check." "She's the kind of girl to call anytime." " What's your name?" " Gustave Blanchel." "Call me Gus." " Gus?" " I know, it's poor." "I almost changed it to Thomas." "Is it better?" "No." "Names are like jobs." "I can't find a good one." "Gus." "Gus is good." "Short." "Clear." "Gus." "Try it." "What?" "Should I say it?" "Yes." "Say it." "Well..." "Gus, Gus, Gus..." "Not like that." "Loud and clear." "Gus!" "Here." "It smacks!" "I'm Gus!" "And you?" "I'm Georges." "Gus!" "I'd rather sit here 'cause she's the kind of girl... to let it ring only once." "She wants it and all of a sudden it's over." "Love is very quick for her." "I can't miss her." "The sink looks very old." "Yes." "It's a Chauffard  Goffond, Model 48." "It was already here when I redid the room." "It's tireless." "The left one leaks a bit." "I'll have to change it one day but I can't make up my mind." "Fuck!" "Fuck!" "Every morning I fall down the stairs..." "I'm not the morning type." "Do you like mornings?" " Did she call?" " No." "Sunny morning..." "So depressing." "Cloudy mornings make me want to stay in bed." "It's not normal." "Usually she always calls." " Do I reheat it?" " Where are my clothes?" "In the store room." "On the left on the radiator." "What's up with her?" "!" "I hope she's fine." "That's all I needed!" "She acted stupid!" "The bitch could do it." "She's the kind of girl who takes sleeping pills and doesn't call back." "Well, she won." "I'll go there." "It never changes." "I'm always the one..." " What is this?" " What?" " This." " Where?" "This." "Here." "What's this?" " It's you." " Are you out of your mind?" "Look at me." "It's awful." "Awful!" "What are you saying?" "You're better with this Valsar haircut." "Valsar haircut?" "Trust me." "I've been doing this for 35 years." "I know what you need." "I can't meet her like this." "My style is complicated." "So a Valsar haircut..." " Well..." " What "well"?" " I'm going." " To meet Sylvie?" "What's her address?" "11 rue Angel. 6th floor." "Her name is Sylvie Verlain." "What'll you say?" "That life is a mountain." "It goes up and down." "And sometime it's flat." "This..." "This is awesome!" "Tell her it goes up and down." "It's great!" "Tell her I'm okay if she wants to start all over again." "Tell her the cloudy mornings in bed story." "It's good too." "Miss Flavier, Georges Flavier." " I'm a friend of Gus." " A friend of Gus?" " Gus has no friend." " I'm different." "I've known him since he was this tall." "The scrapper used to play in my garden." "What is it?" "Is he in hospital?" "Not at all." "He asked me to come take his clothes." "Only his clothes." "So he's leaving." "This is a beautiful bathroom." "Pink is great." "It keeps morale up." " Does it belong to him?" " Who are you?" "!" "What are you doing?" "Fuck!" "What does that mean?" "Anything else?" "I mean the clothes." "You know Miss, that's life." "Life is like a mountain." "It goes up and down." "Sometimes it's flat." "It's often flat." " Mr Georges is not here?" " No." "Will he come back?" "I mean..." "Will he be back in 5 or 10 minutes?" "I don't know." "Never mind." "I'll try." " He just did your hair?" " Yes." "So I'll be here." "Do you mind if I go first?" " First?" " Yes." "Before you." "It'd be nice." " You're in a hurry?" " Yes." "Totally." "Why are you in a hurry?" "An obligation." "Hello." "He called me early this morning." "He wants to see me when he comes back." "It never happened." "It's because of yesterday." "It was so beautiful." " Thanks to you." " So it went well." "Lightning, Mr Georges." "Lightning." "You're a magician." " We'll do the same." " Yes!" "The same!" "He loved it." "What did she say?" "She was not here." "I rang twice or thrice." "This was on the doorstep." "I took it." "I don't want to rush, but I think he loves me." "Thank you." "You saved me." "She kicked me out." "This means she kicked me out." "I must meet him at 9:30am." "He starts working at 10am." "Can you make it?" "I'll be quick." "I jump into water in the middle of the night and she kicks me out?" " You can pull harder, I'm fine." " Shut the fuck off!" " What?" " I think he wants you to keep quiet." "She's really lucky." "She could not have kicked me out if I'd drowned." "I wasn't waiting for a lifeline, but my clothes on the doorstep..." "What did I do wrong?" "Shut up!" "You understand?" "Shut up!" "What's wrong with them?" "What did I do?" "You can't go!" " I must take care of him." " But his hair is already done!" "Stop it now." "This is a love story." "What about my love story?" "No one cares about my love story." "Definitively." "That's hard." "Definitively." "We've already broken up." "But the "definitively" is new." "You're right." "She deserves it." " A ticket to Nice, please." " Yes." "Are you sure it's okay?" " You told me your cousin lives there." " I haven't seen him in ages." " Even better, it'll be all new." " Okay, okay..." "Bye, Gus." "Gus!" "That's the way." "Bye." "Are you sure I don't look like a fool?" "Gus!" "Gus!" "Come on." "Tighten it." "Tighten it." " I can't more." " A little bit more." " Is it good?" " It's good, it's good." "Stop, it's okay." "Open the door, it's him." "Here." "Here I..." "I'm at ease now." "I'm good." "How are your legs?" "Better." "I've had the thigh redone." "I could not have danced." "I did my best." " It's a bit curly on the top." " Oh my!" "It..." "It has style!" "It looks a bit like a heron but it's more stylish." "Yeah." "Good." "It's very good!" " How do I fix it?" " There are plasters on the band." "Perfect!" "Yes, it's good." "Perfect!" "Hey, Georges, it's perfect." "Perfect!" " Yes, boss, it's great." " Yes." "Louisa!" " What's her fancy dress?" " It's a mystery." "It's a surprise!" "Louisa!" " Louisa, is that you?" " Yes." "A sow?" "You're dressed like a sow?" "No." "A little pig!" "But, Georges." "What is a female pig called?" "Usually, a sow." "I can't believe my wife is a sow." "Are you crazy?" "I tell you, Roland..." "I can't be a Pompadour!" "History doesn't suit me." "But Louisa..." "Move from a Pompadour to a sow!" " You can't do that!" " I knew it!" "You don't love me!" "Do you realize I'm a butcher?" "A butcher's wife dressed like a sow..." "Do you think it's intelligent?" "We need good taste." "You wanted to organize a masked ball for Liliane's Communion." "Not me!" "Try the rabbit, Louisa." "Listen to me." "The rabbit is a classic." "Trust me, I've been telling people what suit them for 30 years." "I have no costume..." "You have no costume?" "I'm dreaming!" "What's all this?" "!" "And this?" "And this?" "And this?" "Don't tell me you can't do the legs with this." "What are you telling?" "What's this?" "And this?" "It won't suit me." "It will, sweety." "Georges told you." "Look." "It suits you." "You know what can make the ears?" "Wait..." "You're not in your shop." " What are you doing here?" " You were out long." " Did you miss it?" "A wrong platform?" " No, the good one." "The good one..." "The good platform but the wrong train." "'Cause each platform has two sides." "Did she call?" "Isn't she great as a rabbit?" "You're not hungry?" "You should, it's delicious." "It's canned." "You know everything, don't you?" "The kind of man that knows everything." "You're not in your shop but you know the phone doesn't ring." " You're that kind of guy?" " Yes." "Fuck!" "I can't believe it..." "Do you think you're all alone?" "Excuse me?" "You should realize you're not alone." "You're not moving." "You don't look very happy." "You're sick animals." "Is this a joke?" " Get out of here." " He's crazy." " Get the fuck out of here!" " What's wrong, Mr Georges?" "Simone, love has been pissing humanity off for centuries!" "It can't come and bother us here during our lunch." " Calm down, Mr Georges." " No!" "Someone must say it!" "Love is a muck that should be forbidden in bars, just like tobacco." "Look at him." "Yellowish eyes and complexion." "He's done for it." "Enough." "Stop it now!" "Let me tell you how you'll be when she dumps you!" "Your brain is 0% grey matter!" "Stop or I'll kill you!" "Look!" "I'm here eating your delicious canned food... and a moron who had a crush messes things up." "You're lucky to be old." "You're lucky!" "Yes, I am, but I got by fine." "I'm safe now." "Oh, you're eating now." "It was getting through my tights!" "I don't get it." "Sometimes it's long as hell after two weeks..." "Sometimes two months are fine." "What does hair depend on?" " The moon?" " Here we are." "We'll rinse now." "Or music maybe?" "It must grow faster if I dance rock." "What do you think, kid?" "He's shy." "Shyness is a disease of the youth nowadays." "Is this a leak?" "Fuck!" "It's starting again..." "It's divine!" "It's divine!" "Skin!" "Skin!" "Only skin!" "You're not from the neighbourhood." "I'd have recognized you." "Have you lost your tongue?" "There's no use screwing." "It's the seal." "You need an 8 washer." "Plumber." "The little mute is a plumber." "I assure you." "All pink!" "I assure you." "All pink: bathtub, sink, washbasin, walls, ceiling..." "I made it all pink." "I did it in one morning for her birthday." "When she came home..." "She was surprised." "Do you like pink?" "I like yellow." "You're wrong!" "Pink is great for toilets, bathtubs, sinks..." "Come on, look." "If you put this in your hairstyling salon it will be amazing." "I can't afford it." " Hairdressers don't earn a lot?" " It depends." " You mean you're cheap?" " No, average." "You have noticed I don't have much customers." "It's because of the washbasin." " You think?" " They don't make you wanna come in." " They are repulsive." " Really?" "They look like train-station shit." " Train-station shit?" " Public convenience." "Put two pink washbasins and your business will be full day and night." "At least it's my opinion." "A big jaw and twelve 8 washers." "120Fr please." "Now I understand why the grocery in front of my shop is always full." "It's because of the manageress." "She's all pink!" "It's the reason." "Sometimes I forget." "What?" "Sylvie." "Even at 50 you can still enjoy parties." "As long as you put on a costume..." "Costume..." "Wonderful!" "It's not tilting." " René, can I slice it?" " Of course!" "I'll help you." "My kid's party is a success." "It's always..." "Don't let the kid drink!" "Hello, Georges." " See?" "The rabbit is good!" " Yes, but I'm hot." "Ole!" "A tribute to Spanish butchers." "Say." "Who's the Indian with you?" " My plumber." " Your plumber?" " Why did you bring him?" " He asked me." " You're kidding." " No." "He asked to come to my kid's Communion?" "When he saw me dressed up like this he wanted to come." "And you agreed?" "What can a bullfighter say to a plumber?" "Yes, you're right." "Watch out, your plumber may be opened too." " Georges!" " Lucien..." "You must be happy." "Your business will be full." "I have to close." "Look." " Did you wash a mixer?" " A bike." "Just when I was leaving to Karlovy Vary." "How unlucky!" "Last year, I missed the Golden Scissors in Glasgow because of my ankle." "This year, the World Championship in Czechoslovakia because of my arm." "Fuck!" "Try to find the Disabled Hairdressers' Tournament." "He can't waltz!" "With this body..." "He's shaped like Nijinsky and he just stands here." "He'll move." "Come, there are drinks." " Iansminski?" " See?" "He can move." " Come on, dance!" " No." "Go on!" "Do it!" " The bitch." " Shut up!" "Tell your plumber to stop his porn or I'll smash his face!" "He's just dancing." "No, he's fucking." "He's fucking my wife." " In front of my daughter." " Are you crazy?" "I'm telling you." "Liliane is not gonna meet Jesus for the first time in a brothel." "He must stop this filth." "Oh, my God!" "It's enough now!" "Leave me alone." "He's giving me fun like you can't." "Gus!" "Gus!" "It smacks!" " I'm sorry." " Don't." "I'm really sorry." "Usually I'm not sorry." "This time I am." "Don't, don't." "It's the first time I laughed at a wedding." " Wasn't it a Communion?" " It's all the same." " It's insipid happiness." " This one was hot." "The mess we threw on the carnival!" "The parrot was angry." "The boobs were good for a rabbit." "Georges, you're against love but not against fuck?" "I'll give you a ride on my trash." "Come on!" "Let me wrap up." "It's cold." " What time your train is?" " 5:31, platform 11, left side." "Don't worry." "I won't miss it." "I want to see Nice since I'm an expert in carnivals." "What a chili we put in their party!" "Ready, buddy?" "Ciao, torero." " Where are you going?" " To the train-station." "5:31, platform 11, left side." "Nice." "Don't you want to sleep?" "There are still 4 hours to go." " Sleep?" "Where?" " Here." " At your place?" " Yes." " You want me to sleep here?" " It would be better if you slept a bit." "Why are you taking care of me?" "Because I like you." " You like me?" " Yes." "You mean..." "You..." "You want me to sleep with you?" "No." "Sure?" "Since my wife left 25 years ago I can't stand anyone in my bed." "Stop joking." "I know not all hairdressers are gay." "Don't forget to wake me up." "Don't worry." "You won't miss your train." "Why did your wife leave?" "She went crazy." "Crazy about someone or just crazy?" "All the same." "Do you have kids?" "Yes, a son." "Luc." "Luc?" "Luc!" "Luc!" "It's good." "Yes, Luc." "Is he a hairdresser too?" "No." "Sailor." "There is no hairdresser sailor." " Do you need something?" " No." "Good night." "Georges?" "Don't do shit again with my hair when I sleep." "Fuck!" "Coming!" "Coming!" " Where's your plumber?" "!" " In a train to Nice." "Chasing my wife the whole evening, okay." "Smashing my brother-in-law's face, good." "But stealing 15.000 Fr from my raincoat is intolerable." " Why did you put your money there?" " Can't I do what I want with my money?" "Give me the bastard's address right now or I'll press charges." " You have no proof." " I have witnesses!" " Really?" "Who?" " Fernande saw it all." " Doesn't count." " Why?" "She's your lover." "She can't testify in a court." "You're too close." "What are you saying." ""Doesn't count"..." "What's on your cheek?" "Oh, yes!" "Another success!" "Your helmet." "The plasters!" "It itched the whole night." "Sit down." "I'll settle this." "Monique, the second one..." "She won't have a Communion." "We're done with Communions in my family." "It's him!" "It's him!" "Your plumber's here!" "Not in Nice!" "You'll see." "Pink is really the best." " Where did he get the money?" " From me." "I ordered it." "Are you crazy?" "It's true." "It feels different." " Do you like it?" " Yes." "I mean..." "Pink..." "Of course..." "Pink is surprising." "The first time." "Pink is a must for a washbasin." "It's the best." "It reassures the customers." "It makes them wanna come in." "Really?" "I really love pink." "What should I do with this strand?" "You see..." "I'd like it like this." "I see." "And I tidy up the back." "Just a bit." "Don't make it look military." " You prefer artistic?" " Let's say... in-between." " If possible." " It is." "Give me the clippers, please." "And the little thin comb." "The little fine one." " Isn't it little and fine?" " It's little and wide." " Is this wide?" " Its teeth are." "It can't detangle." "It's used to wave or shape." "Careful!" "It's fragile." " You do it deliberately." " Am I wrong again?" "This one straightens." "Do you think I'll use hair curler for this man?" "A comb is a comb." "It's just a fucking parting." "Do you know what the customer entrusted me with?" "His head!" "He wants a new one." "He can't stand this one." "I have 10 to 15 minutes to make one he'll show in the streets... in his office, to his wife..." "He needs to be proud of it!" "A customer that walk out ashamed is a lost one, Gus!" "A head, the inside or the outside, must be worked out with the right tool." "Here, you see?" "See what?" "Now give me a smooth brush and mat spray." "Fuck!" "This is Georges." "Grace Kelly." "I'm waiting!" "The handle first." "Hairdressing is not a game." "It's precise, sensitive, creative..." "You're a genius." "Gus, put the strand of hair under the turban..." "The strand." "Remove it." "What's left?" "A fat woman." "Give her a great hairstyle..." "She becomes desirable." "The hair is like a curtain before her nudity." "She's not naked, she's undressed, voluptuous." "Look." "Why is this angel still an angel despite his gloomy eyes?" "Because his hair is softly curly, like a pure young girl." "Each curl is a masterpiece of innocence." "Don't you forget, Gus..." "Da Vinci was the greatest hairdresser of the Renaissance." "He invented the triple carpathe." "What's the triple carpathe?" "Three braids in a single move of the comb." "Here again." "Nothing on the hair." "No daring, no ardor." "We can't see his hair." "The horse, Gus!" "The horse's hair." "Oh, okay." " Georges..." " You want to go?" " Did you meet Grace Kelly?" " Yes." "I dressed her hair." " You dressed Grace Kelly's hair?" " Yes." "In '55." "Don't make fun of me." "Grace Kelly came to your rat-hole?" "No, in Cannes." "I lived in Cannes back then." "Oh, okay." "You were famous?" "Grace Kelly couldn't have a moron comb her hair." "Please." "Shh!" "Do you know who you just shhed?" "Grace Kelly's hairdresser." "Know what he says to you?" "No." "You'd be voluptuous with your hair under your turban." "Really." "Georges!" "There is more to see!" "Wait!" "Egyptian hair still doesn't move after 5000 years!" " Hurry up." " Why don't you live here?" "There's a restaurant." "Why not a hairdresser?" "With the painting you can explain to your customers." "Short like Napoleon." "Long like Bonaparte." "Stop your nonsense." "Do go back to your rat-hole." "Remember who you are!" "Come on!" "You need a place worthy of you." "With lustre and light." "A lot of guys to help you comb the ladies' hair, Georges!" "No matter where." "You can do Grace Kelly's hair everywhere!" "I didn't buy food." "We'll go to the Rialto." "Did you hear me?" "You don't listen to me." "You don't care about what I say." "You can improvise a whole book in front of a painting, but you can't listen." " I'm listening." " No!" "You're going back to your low life to hide the pleb's baldness." "It's easy." "Yokels never complain!" "You can take it easy." "You must take it up around the ears." "Take it up, take it up!" "This fringe must be folded away with a comb." "A little thin comb." "A smooth one." "Folded it with a smooth comb." "Is this bear for her Communion?" "Wait, he'll comb it for you." "You'll comb the bear, won't you?" " Gus, you're pissing me off." " Fuck you!" "Fuck you!" "Fuck the master's clientele and fuck the master." "You saved me to drag me in your shit?" "Dive again!" "And no need to scream, I won't save you again!" "Thank goodness!" "You can't swim, asshole!" "When I think about the pink I gave you..." "You're such a loser." "Your salon has to be empty." "Pink can't stand poorness." " You moron." " Don't tell me you dressed Grace's hair." " You're only good for skivvies." " Just get lost in Nice." "I have no cousin in Nice." "It was just to please you!" "I'm smart!" "You're a loser!" "A loser!" "Monique!" "She was so happy..." "Czechoslovakia is exotic for a child." "She hadn't cut her hair since March for this championship." "Poor child..." "It's too bad." "I could have won!" "We trained twice a week with Monique." "A beauty." "You know her?" "No." "I'll tell you..." "Silk!" "Silk!" "The comb sailed alone." "Hey!" "At this time..." "We should have arrived at Karlovy Vary." "Exactly!" "I'm full." "Here." "Pretty as a picture." "Simone and I have been talking about what you said about love." "You were right." "We're thinking about it." "You want something else?" "I have tarte tatin." "I can reheat it." "I'm in for tatin." "Mr Georges, where were you?" "I came three times today!" " In the Louvre." " But my rendez-vous was at 5pm!" "I couldn't miss it!" "So..." "I had to dress my own hair." "Look at the result." "Roland has been calm." "You know what I mean." "Really calm." "Are you okay, Mr Georges?" "I'm very well." "You look peaky." "We're too." "When I'm lacking love..." "My pancreas hurts and I'm dead beat." "Look at me." "Poor Roland, I understand him." "You're closing?" "Sorry, I forgot about the time." "Mr Georges, you need a good sleep tonight." "You'll have to fix my hair tomorrow." "Have a good night." "I changed my mind." "I'm leaving my rat-hole." "If you want to come with me, I agree." "My son can sleep anywhere too." "I'm American!" "I told you I'm American!" "I came here to do hair." "Can't you see, man, that this is a hairbrush and a comb, and I have pins in there." "I ain't got no dope in that bag." "Tell him Dicky, tell him." "You too!" "Ain't nothing in there!" " You're sure we're not mistaken?" " Can't you read?" " Where?" " Here." " I can't read this." " You can't?" " It's not French." " 49th World Hairdressing Championships." "World?" " World Championships?" " Yes, World." "We're participating in the World Championships?" " Why didn't you tell me?" " I told you." "You said Hairdressing Championships.." "Not World!" "You never said World." " Is this your first time?" " What?" " The Worlds Championships." " How do you think Grace Kelly heard about me?" "I want to register." "I'm sorry, Sir." "Registrations have been closed since noon." "I'm replacing Mr Cardet." "He's registered, but he broke his arm." "Cardet, France." "It's me again." "Manitti." "With two T." "You sent me to the Bain Hotel." "They told me there is no Manitti with two T." "There is a Manniti with two N. It's not me!" " Manniti?" " No, Manitti!" "Ti!" "Where do you accommodate Manitti?" " Which country?" " France." "Flavier, Georges Flavier." "Flavier?" "V-I-E-R?" "I knew one from Bastia!" "He had three seats near the port." "A genius with a curling iron!" "He could curl a legionnaire." "Your cousin?" "The only Manitti stays at the Bain Hotel." "It must be you." "Fuck!" "What a shitty organization." "Good luck, Flavier." "I'm replacing Mr Cardet." "He had an accident." "I already told you." "Registrations are closed." " It's over." " What do you mean over?" "Even words?" "Discussions have been closed since noon too?" "Sir, please..." "We rode the train for 18 hours!" "You didn't tell him to arrive before noon." "We came here and you think we'll just go home?" "Wait!" "Calm down!" "Georges, don't give up!" "He dressed Grace Kelly's hair!" "I can carry my luggage." "Wait, wait." "I'll explain." "Calmly." "No." "It's okay." "I'll be back." "The Imperator!" "I knew you'd come back." "I knew it!" "Mimi!" "Come and see!" "It's unbelievable, he's here!" "Who?" "The Triple Carpathe!" "Flavier, Georges Flavier!" "I can't spend my life going upstairs and downstairs, Botho!" "What is your hotel?" "I'm leaving, I can't register." "What are you saying?" "Do you know who he is?" "He's the best in the world!" "The King of the Kings, and you don't accept him?" "!" "But Mr Stullman, he..." "Tell this asshole of Gombaud that if Flavier leaves..." "Botho Stullman is leaving the championships too." " Let it go." " Let it go?" "Let it go?" "!" "Are you crazy?" "I've won everything since you left." "I'm like Bismarck..." "There's no one to compete with me." "Only little tinpot Napoleons." "I miss you, Georges." "Don't tell me it's Luc..." "No." "He's Gus, my assistant." "Oh." "I was thinking..." "But it's been a long time!" "Baby Luc must be a colossus now." "He's a sailor." "Botho!" "I'm freaking cold!" "You bought me a cheap fur, didn't you?" "She's a bitch." "But she wears gold." "It's brand new!" "I bought it two years ago." "Is he your champion?" "He looks like a hobo." "Let's go now." "Her temper is like her hair." "Electric!" " Leave me alone, will you?" " Calm down, calm down." "Do you know who this hobo is?" "He's the only one who humiliated me with a comb and a pair of scissors." "He beat me twice." "Biarritz '59 and Barcelona." "No, Venice." "Exact." "Venice." "In '62." "With your Triple Carpathe." "I'll never forget it." "It is engraved here." "I'm so sorry, Mister Stullman..." "No one tole me he was Mr Flavier." "We are deeply honored with your presence." "Is there an asshole who are here capable of speaking English in this dry-assed town?" "Do you like it?" "Totally." "If I have no style, Walter, I'm leaving!" "Fuck you and your big ass!" "A Valsar haircut!" "Who likes it nowadays?" "Kurteg, come back!" "We'll do the haircut you want!" "Kurteg, I love you!" "Daisy!" "Daisy!" "My Babyliss is broken again!" "Daisy, open up!" "Daisy!" "My Babyliss is dead." "Georges, is the midget we met that good?" "He is inventive." "Inventiveness doesn't count." "The only thing that counts is time." "Come one." "Give me C3 B5." "No, the handle first." "Remember?" " Right." "Let's start over." " C2 B4." "Shit, I can't do it." "It's not you." "It's me." "Let's do it again." "C5 P3." "You can do it." "Let's do it again." "Flavier!" "Have you heard?" "I went back to the Bain." "They told me there is no Manitti." "They didn't know me!" "Manitti had disappeared." "There was a Ranitti." "Do you imagine?" "Ranitti!" "I almost beat them up." "Finally I'm in the Royal in a room reserved for Korvalitch, with a K!" "This is a crazy mess!" "Your equipment is classy!" "Mine is chrome-plated." "My thing is not the tools." "It's the legs." "Everything is in the move." "Rapidity!" "Stability!" "Look!" "Thigh, calf, shoe!" "You get it?" "Look!" "Look!" "It's not about the hand!" "It's the foot!" "The foot leads." "You get it?" "You brush, you brush..." "The foot makes it all!" "See?" "Get it?" "It's the thing!" "I almost forgot." "Do you know about the models?" " No." " What a mess." "Tomorrow, 8am, Veltana Square." "Be on time." "Girls will be hard to get." "Thank you." "Look!" "Look at my hands!" "Thanks to my foot my hands work alone on the hair!" "This is it." "Georges?" "Georges?" "Georges?" "Georges?" "Are you okay?" "Are you tired?" "A bit." " Georges?" " Yes?" "You're not afraid, are you?" "I'm not." "Not at all." "Hurry up!" "We won't have one!" "Which one do you want?" "Tell me." "This one?" "This one?" "Look at this one!" "This one?" "Georges!" "This one?" "This one?" "All of them are worn out." "This one?" "This one?" "She's perfect." "I'll take her." "I'm telling you:" "You will go buy the butter... for these noddles!" "Shut up, Kurteg!" "Shut up!" "You can't even tell hairs from shoelaces." "I can't stand him." " This is not new!" " Asshole!" "Look at this one." "Rotten?" "It's straw." " Miss!" " Don't move!" " Lean!" " Don't be afraid." " What do you think?" " She's good!" "Let's take her!" "What is he doing?" "Why doesn't he choose one?" "What's going on, Botho?" "Are you afraid of him?" "No." "I'm looking at his hands." "Only his hands." "The little brunette!" "This one?" "Rapidity, stability, legs!" "You can't lose!" "Got it?" "You're lucky!" "You know who chose you?" "Manitti!" " Manilli?" " No!" "Manitti!" "What now?" "There is a dachshund there." "Would you like it?" " Did you notice the German's hair?" " The midget's girlfriend?" "This is the quality I need or I'm busted." "Why didn't you bring someone from Paris?" "Fernande's hair gave the butcher an erection." "It's top quality!" "Confident, Botho?" "He's done." "He couldn't find one." "Poor Flavier, when I think about what he used to be..." "I'm telling you:" "I want a villa this year!" "You hear me?" "I want a villa this year!" " Where are you going?" " It's over." "We're going home." "You mean the luggage, the train, everything?" "We're giving up?" "Unless you become a redhead and be my model tomorrow." "Don't be crazy, Georges!" "I'll find one!" " The other girls will look poor." " You know nothing..." "About hair maybe, but about looking poor I do." "Let me try, Georges!" "Are you French?" "Yes." "Champs Elysées, croissant, Le bourgeois gentilhomme..." "Sunsets, honeymoons..." "Make a fuss, we're in deep shit..." " I'm collecting French." " Really?" " Do you have oysters?" " Oysters?" "I'll trade my cakes for oysters." " We don't have oysters." " Liar!" "You have seas, so you have oysters." "Here, there is no sea." "Maybe we can find some." "You couldn't find a model amongst 200 chicks and you will find oysters in Czechoslovakia?" "Then I won't be a total loser." " Can you carry this?" "I'm tired." " Carry this." "She's tired." "If we find oysters, can you pay it for me?" "Is she eating oysters?" "Yes." "While you're doing her hair, she's eating oysters." " Yes." " Why?" "It makes her see the sea." "Bretons..." "Always the same..." "Always a little trick." "May I?" "I may find a pearl!" "This is a wild beast you found!" "With beautiful hair." "Isn't it too difficult to come back?" "I'll be fine." "For sure!" "Just one day of practice and tomorrow you'll win the championships!" "Botho!" "Should I remind you I'm the one you should work on?" "All the best in your work." "You won't tell me why she's eating oysters?" "No." "I'm not afraid!" "Who's this rat?" " The favorite." " He won't win." "Dear friends..." "Here are the results of the draw... for tomorrow morning preliminaries." "The imposed theme is "Gala"." "Good luck to everyone." "Is it good for you?" "Should I give you a comb?" "No." "Hey man, how's it going?" "I see you finally found something good." "Let's have a walk outside." "You should not walk around like that." "They'll think you need an idea." "That you have no inspiration." "Stop!" "Fuck..." "I can't do my brushing in less that 15.2 in this country." "In Bastia I can do it easily in 13." "I'm weighed down by the altitude." "Aren't you, Flavier?" "Yeah, maybe." "Your plexus." "Enlarge your plexus." "That's the solution." "Let's do it." "Enlarge your plexus." "You'll be better that this asshole." "Don't copy!" "You want to see?" "Alright." "See?" "I've mastered your triple carpathe now." "No brush." "A little 12 is enough." "You'll need something else to beat me." "You fucking French!" "Watch your step!" "Never do it again!" "You hear?" "You hear?" "!" "Come and see the Prince of Hair" "Tomorrow at 11am in the Lucerna Theater!" "World Hairdressing Championships!" "Just a few tickets left..." "More than 30 countries competing..." "But..." "Did you find something?" "Georges, you have to tell me." "I must train myself or we'll fail." "What does "fail" means?" "Come on!" "Let's go to the Grafit." "It's a very cool night club." "Let's go!" "She's says it's funny." "It'll help your inspiration." "I have no inspiration." "How can it be helped?" "Ok, forget it." " You can go." " No, I'm staying." " I'm saying you can go!" " Are you sure?" "Well..." "Wait for me, don't sleep." "Hurry up." "I won't be late." " Do what you want." " Yes, I'm just saying." " You come with me?" " No, only old people dance there." "Well, see you later." "Do you mind if I go there?" "Do what you want." "How many times should I say it?" "Well..." "I won't be late." "You don't dance anymore, Mr Flavier?" "You used to enjoy it." "Do you remember us?" "We met in the Canaries during the Cop cruise." "Cop, cop, cop..." "The Cop hat!" "We're the Kovetches." "The Kovetches!" "Of course I remember!" "You and your wife were the kings of the boat." "We laughed so much when you imitated the captain stuttering!" "You danced flamenco on top of the restaurant table!" "Dressed as a señorita!" "What if he gets laid?" "We can't wait for him the whole night while he's getting laid." "Go to sleep." "You need to sleep." "You hold the scissors." "I'm just waiting." "If you're tired, you may hurt my eye or my ear." "Or your nose." "Your spleen." " Your bottom." " My cheek." "Sorry, but a pierced cheek hurts." "What's his bill?" "Bye." "Gus is having fun." "You know, it's good to have fun." "Hey, Georges!" "I'd like us to win." "You're the guy I loved the most... in my entire life, Kurteg..." "But admit you are a good-for-nothing..." "I'm here!" "Hey, Dick!" "Where are my shoes?" "Where are you, asshole?" "Get'em up here!" "Get a move on, man." "You're so fucking slow!" "Get my shoes up here." "Quick!" "Get'em up here, man!" "Ladies and gentlemen!" "The contest will start in 40 minutes." "40 minutes!" "The contestants will present themselves in the following order..." "So?" "He won't drink." "He's very worried." "But don't worry, it'll be fine." "Ironable and clean." "This is all I have." "Perfect." "I wore it for my aunt's funeral." "People liked it." "Work on me." "I saw the German." "The Champion." "He doesn't look in good shape." "Georges..." "I don't know how it went..." "I..." "I've been taken." "The girl was a tornado." "I had never seen such a thing." "I didn't wake up." "Still..." "She's been nice." "Look." "She lent me her father's tuxedo." "He's a musician." "We had forgotten about my tuxedo!" "It's great, isn't it?" "What the hell are you doing?" "!" "I don't need to be disturbed!" "I don't!" "Idiots in need of help, I don't need them!" "Let them die!" "I need no one." "Get it?" "I need no one!" "You need to fuck." "It would calm you down!" "It's true." "Leave him alone." "He'll cool down." "He needs to be calm for the test." "Mr Flavier has changed." "He has changed." " How was he before?" " Very funny." "Funny, all the time." "I think he's still funny." "You haven't met him before." "With his wife..." "A clown." "A real clown." "Unstoppable." "In my opinion, he never recovered from his son." " Luc?" " I never knew his name." "But the day his son drowned..." "We never saw Mr Flavier competing again." "Disappeared." "Luc?" "Luc drowned?" "Yes, his son." "The sailor." "Some say it was not an accident..." "A love story?" "I don't know." "It was a long time ago." "I've never liked love." "Georges!" "Georges!" "Georges..." "It was just a fuck, Georges." "No love." "Just fuck." "Can you tell me where you're going?" "There's nothing in this direction." "Come on, Georges, we'll crush them all." "You're the best, Georges." "You know why we'll win?" "Because we're alive." "I'm alive, you're alive." "Not like your idiot of a son." "An idiot." "What an idiot!" "Luc, Luc, Luc!" "He's been fucked like a queer." "He let you down, the rat." "Are you gonna do the same?" "Are you letting me down?" "I'm alive, in front of you, and you're letting me down?" "Did you bring everything?" "..." "Ladies and gentlemen!" "Welcome to Karlovy Vary!" "We'll host this international championship in great pomp!" "I'll let Mr Biliantek, the Mayor, speak." "He is honoring us by opening this event." "You may applaud on the central podium..." "Botho Stullman, #10." "Six times World Champion!" "#24 Kurteg and Stoff." "4 times European Champions." "#28 Enzo Manitti and #27 Miss Jackson from the USA." "The Kovatches, #9, from the Czech Republic!" "Uma Coco, best African hairdresser 1992!" "Now the models are seated." "The President of the Jury will begin the first exams on the theme "Gala"." "What is happening here?" "A latecomer!" "#26 Georges Flavier of France." "Who is now taking his place." "The eliminations may now commence." "Flavier!" "Get ready for the countdown." "What's the idea for the girl?" "It's time you tell me." "10..." "If I fail, you'll be responsible." "7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 2... 1..." "And it's an excellent start for all the candidates." "It's going very quickly." "Notice the work of #27, the Philippines." "And #19 of Monaco." "The #37 of Romania is also going very well." "Botho Stullman has made an excellent start." "How can one not admire the speed with which he creates his hairstyles?" "With their usual elegance..." "Mr and Mrs Kovetch are making a magnificent bird cage." "Oh, yeah." "I said my name is Johnson." "Look at the extraordinary energy of Enzo Manitti." "You think he was flying on his model!" "The Polish team is moving ahead very well." "I have the feeling that Kurteg and Stoff are preparing an ode to Bacchus." "What are we doing?" "!" "And it's the Spanish contestant, #5 Carmino... who finishes first with a remarkable time!" "3 minutes 40 seconds!" "I can't stand him." "Georges, fuck!" "Look at the stop-watch!" "On the podium to the left, one may appreciate the work of Larkevitch." "Just behind him, notice the dexterity of Karotas of Greece." "Who's creating a mobile sculpture with his model's hair." "We must do something now, Georges." "We must..." "We must do it." "Botho Stullman has finished!" "In less that 6 and a half minutes he has constructed an Eiffel Tower!" "With the magnificent blond hair of his model." "What a performance!" "A well deserved round of applause." "B2." "Here we are." "You deserve it." "You didn't train me." "Elastic." "What?" "I have no elastic!" "I can now see a magnificent dolphin... taking shape in the model #15's hair." "It's #26, Georges Flavier." "He finishes with the..." "surprising work of... simplicity." "#14 has finished." "And Manitti, #28, too!" "You had to uncurl her hair!" "Not all these useless tricks!" "I uncurled!" "No!" "You unbrushed!" "You made her look like a turkey going to the opera." "If we make it to the final, you'll do it all alone." "I quit!" "Kurteg, wait, I love you!" "So, did he enlarge his plexus?" "Let me see his idea." "Good!" "Very good!" "It's the best!" "Flavier is good." "Very good!" "Just an elastic?" "Fuck, man!" "Alright!" "When it's pure it's always good." "Natural is a good idea." "Just an idea." "No skill." "But a good idea." "You can have hope." "Still smarter than an Eiffel Tower!" "Botho!" "Botho!" "What are these assholes doing with the results?" "It's never been so long!" "Botho!" "You were right about her hair." "What?" "It's first choice quality." "Why do you say that?" "She was picked up for the final." "I slide to the scissors." "I take the scissors, I turn, I jump twice..." "I cut, I take the hair, I curl it, I cross it..." "I take the barrette, I jump twice, I turn..." "No, fuck!" "I jump once, I turn..." "You really are the Imperator." "I wanted to congratulate you before the final." "This was a nice come back." "I'm glad I insisted you registered." "They are formidable, too." "Congrats, children!" " Can I talk to you?" " Go ahead." "A little secret." "You may make fun of me, but..." "You know..." "I'm not young anymore." "Mimi..." "How can I say?" "I'm very concerned about..." "Aging..." "It's not difficult." "What is difficult is to keep the optimism." "Optimism is impossible when being alone." "If I don't win, I won't be able to buy the villa she wants." "You understand?" "Very well." "I can't imagine her leaving me." "Here." "This is my Cadillac." "In case you don't win..." "It's yours." "As a compensation." "You know what I mean, Imperator." "Yes." "Ladies and gentlemen!" "The ten finalists of the 1993 World Hairdressing Championship!" "I'll ask you for the finest silence... during the contest... so as not to disturb the competitors." "Dear finalists..." "You have exactly 30 minutes... to realize the hairstyle of your choice." "Ladies and gentlemen, the final!" "I said give me a "peigne", you jive-ass turkey!" "What is he doing?" "His triple carpathe." "It's fine, we know it..." "The Louvre!" "You're doing the Louvre!" "No, not the ankle!" "It twisted." "I sprained my ankle!" "It's because of the synthetic carpet!" "It's synthetic!" "It's not allowed for World Championships!" "Your organization is shit!" "I'm a real hairdresser." "I never work on synthetic!" "Neither in altitude!" "Fuck yourselves!" "MA-NI-TTI!" "With two T!" "Is it okay?" "What am I doing here, Gus." "Can you tell me?" "I'll tell you once you've won." "Why didn't you go to Nice?" "Definitively to Nice?" "If you finish..." "I swear I'll leave." "Further than Nice." "Australia." "Would you like it?" "Yes, it's fine." "He's very fast, isn't he?" "He's not fast, he's nervous." "And now, ladies and gentlemen!" "The results!" "9th" "With 32 out of 40..." "Carmino." "8th 33 out of 40..." "Karotas." "7th 34 out of 40..." "Chiliani." "6th 36 out of 40." "Pulsky!" "5th 38 out of 40..." "Kovetch." "4th 38.5 out of 40..." "Kurteg and Stoff." "Don't be sad." "The only thing that matters is that I love you." "All of this is your fault." "I've been thinking of breaking up with you for 2 years, asshole!" "3rd 39 out of 40..." "Miss Jackson." "Ladies and gentlemen!" "One moment of attention, please." "In a few seconds..." "One of these two hairdressing artists..." "Will become... 93 World Champion!" "2nd 39.5 out of 40" "Georges Flavier." "And the winner..." "With 40 out of 40 is..." "Mister Botho Stullman!" "Collapse of creation!" "Collapse of creation!" "Disqualification of Mr Stullman for collapse of hair creation." "The rule is clear on this point." "You're the World Champion!" "World Champion!" "The World Champion is now..." "Mr Georges Flavier!" "Fernande?" "He's back!" "Yes?" "Yes, it's me." "Really?" "If it's urgent, come right now." "She left to Arcachon?" "Is there another contest?" "No, there are oysters." "She paid with the first price." " He's a genius!" "I was the first to claim it." " You're right." "Do you love me?" "I adore you!" "Roland!" "Before I forget." "You'll put this in your pocket." "I had forgotten about it." "The best hairdresser of the world can't have debts." " Roland!" " Georges." "Georges, tell me." "You can thank my bike." "Without it, the trophy would be in my living room." "People would think you stole it." "Funny." "How funny..." " What about the plumber?" " He went to the south." " Oh, yes." "Nice, isn't it?" " No, Australia." "It's better." "It's definite." "He needed it." " Won't you miss him?" " Let's take a picture!" "Georges, in the middle." "Simone!" "On the back." "Everybody smile!" "Where are you going, Georges?" " Wrong platform?" " No, it was good." "Platform, train, plane..." " It's the kangaroos." " The kangaroos?" "They always made me feel sick." "Very sick." " Really?" " Kangaroos are disgusting." " I realized they live in Australia." " Yes." "I realized it just before I got into the plane." "How lucky!" " You're taking a picture?" " You wanna come?" "No, I won't disturb you." " You decide." " Okay!" "Just the time to find another country." "You understand, kangaroos..." "To Alexie" "Subtitles by Tadanobu for KG"
