"I've been sleeping on the couch." "You know she's been cheating on you." "Everyone knows it." "Yes, I'm cuckold." "So, what are you waiting for?" "Do something, fight for yourself." "At first, I didn't think it would last." "We're a couple, that's what counts." "And now?" "I don't care." "It's like it didn't happen." "She can screw them all!" "Be quiet." "What can I do?" " Get her pregnant." " She doesn't want to." "She won't leave you with a kid." "I realized that with Tania." "The road cleared the day she was born." "Now it's smooth sailing." "Hi, sweetie, is your mommy home?" "OK, I'll call her there, bye." "Should I get that?" "It's me." "How you doing?" "OK, you still at Mom's place?" "No, I'm in Lyon." "What are you doing there?" "I haven't been here for ages, it's changed." "Sorry, I can't talk right now." "I have a question." "Do you know what year Jean came to France?" "Dad's brother, Jean?" "I'm talking to you." "Don't stir up shit." "Shit?" "It's my life!" "No, it's a life you're making up." "Sorry, Anne," "I'm making jam, you want to talk to Dad?" " I'll call him later." " OK, bye."

"What do we do Sundays?" "I rest, I don't sell newspapers." "You need to get out, see people." "Ask your brother." "There'll be no revolution with guys like you." "What's that?" "Do you mind?" "Go ahead." "You believe in God?" "Don't touch that, you heathen." "You forgive Him after all He did?" "It has nothing to do with faith." "You don't get it." "I get it all right." "Come to lunch." "Léna's fixing gefilte fish." "What a beauty." "Stop it!" "How should I do it?" "Shit!" "Grab it!" "It's jumping on me!" "I won't touch it!" "Wait, I'll do it." "It's not good?" "What's so funny about tossing a fish out the window?" "I'm glad we quit the government." "You'll see, we'll go underground again." "Why are you laughing?" "What's funny about Communists resigning?" "Nothing." "What's for dessert?" "Rice pudding." "Higher!" "I want to touch the sky." "30% in the elections and they kick you out." "Nobody kicked us out, we left." "And a Socialist did it." "Ramadier's Socialist, right?" "A guy who sings The International." "But he sings it off key." "Come on, there's a game on the radio." " Who's playing?" " OL and Red Star." " Are you coming or not?" " Yes." "We'll catch up to you." "Don't take too long." "He told me about Rivesaltes." "How you met." "It's a great story." "He told you it was a sham marriage?" "I was headed for the gas chamber." "Michel was arrested 2 weeks before me." "It was a French camp run by gendarmes." "Luckily, he knew the camp commander in the Foreign Legion." "So, he released him." "You know what Michel said?" ""Can I take my fiancée with me?"" "I didn't know him." "He had noticed me somehow." "Because you're beautiful." "He said to me," ""l can get you out, but we have to get married.""

"It's almost midnight." "I don't get it." "You're followed and you don't turn around." "To see if it's a woman, man or a dog." "He told me not to look." " You always do what he tells you?" " Don't you?" "It's cold, we're out of coal." "I'll go get some." "I'm scared." "Don't worry, I'm here." "Things will be fine." "Are you sure you lost him?" "Good." "Did you search him?" "I didn't find anything." "I'll warn Victor." "We won't stay long anyway." "Any news?" "He arrived yesterday." "I'd given up hope." "Where is he?" "It's here, about an hour away." "He's in a barn above the monastery." "Just one door, we block it." "There's a dog, we'll need poison." "I don't believe it." " Why wait?" " We don't move without the pictures." "He'll get away." "We can't make another mistake." "We need the pictures." "Isn't he back yet?" "He won't be long, don't worry." "I'm going to the basement." "Good night." "I was scared." "Are you all right?" "What happened?" "You have to talk to me." "Do you hear me?" "Talk to me." "I need the truth." "What happened?" "I'm still in the army, I work for them." "I take defecting traitors back to the USSR." "And your store's a good cover." "How do you think I got out?" "And found you?" "Why didn't you tell me?" "I couldn't." "Even to my brother." "You can tell everything to a brother." "I'm risking my neck." "I have to tell Sacha I'm back." "I don't want to lose you." "Paris, June 8, 1942" "My dear Jean," "Don't come back to France, it's too dangerous now." "They arrest all foreigners." "We should go to the free zone, but your father still hopes for our visas to America." "Our only hope is Michel." "Dad wrote to him for a copy of his military record." "It's the only thing that can save us." "My Jean," "I don't know if you'll get this letter." "We're in Drancy, we leave for Germany tomorrow." "We haven't heard from your brother." "He didn't answer Dad's letter." "I'm afraid of what will happen to us." "I'm afraid I'll never see you again." "Be strong, my boy." "When you find Michel, don't tell him any of this." "Simply tell him that I love him like I loved all of you." "Your Mom" "I have something to tell you." "Sit down." "I have to hide out here a while." "Then I'll go, I won't put you in danger." "Why didn't you tell me?" "Do you hate me?" "You think it's my fault they died?" "What could you have done?" "The army record wouldn't have helped." "They would have arrested you if you'd been there." "If you'd gotten dad's letter, you would've answered it." "I did get it." "When I saw his writing, it all came back to me." "His rage while he beat me." "I didn't open it." " It wouldn't have changed anything." " You really think so?" "Can you put my barrette on?" "Let me unsnarl this." "Give it to me." "Can you watch her?" "If you like." "Uncle Jean." "You need anything?" "Shaving cream?" "Some shampoo." "She really likes you." "Kids and animals seem to like me." "And women don't?" "You better go." "Weren't you asleep?" "You woke me up." "Tania had a nightmare." "Sit down a minute." "Why were you followed the other day?" "I won't tell him." "I can read in Michel's eyes." "All I see in yours is danger." "There's no danger." "What about the gun under your mattress?" "Snooping is naughty." "What would you want to do?" "My dream is to open a woman's store with Madeleine." "Not a department store." "Just a small place." "You really want to work, don't you?" "What are you going to do?" "I don't know." "I'd like to travel." "Maybe open a store like Michel." "What are you doing?" "Come to bed." "I'm late!" "I have all this washing." "Jean is there." "Leave it in the kitchen." " It's embarrassing." " Don't worry." "Thanks for everything." "I'm going to find a place and a girlfriend." "What about Bella?" " Why?" " She won't wash my clothes." "Just kidding." "Jean and I fall in love all the time." "He won't be staying either." "He's got a girl?" "I've got to go." "Let me do that." "Turn off the gas." "Could you help me?" "To wring out the sheets?" "Is it true you're leaving?" "Did Sacha say that?" "Don't listen to him." "What are you doing?" "What you wanted to do since you came." "Let me tell you, if you love the guy, leave your husband." "Being left by a woman isn't so terrible." "There are worse things." "Darn it, no more ink." "Maurice, some ink!" "I can't do that to him." "He saved my life." "You saved him too." "He'll find someone else." "Maybe even better." "I can't choose either." "One's too young, the other's too sad." "What's the matter?" "I'm out of ink." "You put in too much." "They're all sticky and messy." "Here it is right under your nose." "If you two stop yacking..." "Stop being so bossy." " All I said was..." " Watch it!" "You're walking on thin ice." "Is that all?" "He only comes out to wash up." "Food is brought every evening." "Is he armed?" "I'm sure he is." "Victor confirmed he's the one." "Tell me that's not a Nazi!" " He was sure about the Alsatian." " There were no photos." "This is our guy." "What is it?" "You think he's cute?" "Family life softens you." "Are you tired?" "So am I." "We're all tired." "You said we'd lose our rage some day." "So what?" "Ziegler's death was a mistake." "But we can't stop." "You too busy swiping your brother's wife?" "Mind your own business!" "Just a minute." "What?" "Come down to the store with me." "Nobody will see you." "I wanted to make one for you since you arrived." "A real one, made-to-measure." "For me?" "I hope Georges got it right, he had to guess." "I'm speechless." "Try it on." "I made the jacket without an inverted pleat." "I put a small cuff on the pants, it's modern." "If you don't like it, I can change it." "Well?" "Look at the build on you." "I look like a banker." "You're very handsome." "I just have to take in the cuff a bit." "You'll break some hearts in this." "Before I met Léna, I was sure I'd end up all alone." "Then I saw her." "It wasn't easy at first." "We did nothing for a year." "I had to be patient." "Then one morning, we were living in an attic in Lyon," "I woke up, opened my eyes and saw a different look in hers." "Are the sleeves OK?" " Not too tight?" " They're fine." "She says I saved her, but I know" "I'm nothing without her." "Do that later, we're ready to start." "I'm coming!" "Who's that?" "Open the door." "No, who is it?" "Come on in, Sacha." " Let's go to my room." " Some chocolate?" "Michel's in the living room." "I got them especially for you." "We're better than that." "What do you mean?"
