"Subtitles:" "corvusalbus, marooned2 , CG, 2015" "My God, my God..." "Forget God." "Of troubles, he's plenty enough already." "You have to call the police." " So everyone'll know?" "You should never have taken your eyes off her." "I pay you enough." " You don't pay me for this." "I lost sight of her for a moment." "And..." "What an idea to spend the night with all those people!" "We mustn't despise the people, sir." " All right." "Especially when they're a young people." "Vigorous, so hot blooded." "Imbecile!" "Yes, sir." "Excuse me, sir." "Look there!" "It's a couple in love, It can't be her." "Ah, Peru..." "I'll remember it." "And Brazil, as well." "And Morocco, Algeria..." "Stop it!" "And who knows how many places yet she'll bring the tourists." "Aren't you horrified by the thought that now, perhaps, she's lying on one of these beaches?" "Perhaps, strangled." "Rest assured." "Nothing has happened." "Understand?" "Nothing." "Every morning they collect the dead from the carnival." "Here, last night..." "The only thing to lose are the emeralds." "But you'll buy them back." "You're a cynic, but you're right." "My morals are no longer what they once were." "But no one's stopping you!" "We can do without your services..." "That, moreover, are not exceptional." "How much has changed in..." "in the drivers before me?" "Maybe she went back to the hotel." " We phoned, right?" "Nothing's happened. "A woman born under a lucky star", as you put it." "Mind you, I didn't say she was a happy woman." "I said only that she's lucky." "She has beauty, youth, wealth..." "A husband like her, a driver like me." "Enough, Ramón!" " All right, sir." "Forgive me, sir." "Stop!" "Sir!" "Over here." "Either she's reached the road going that way, or is in there." "What is that?" " A brothel." "She'll be coming to ask for help." "You're a right bastard!" "One must have a profession in life, sir." "I'm sorry." "We're closed." "My girls are all resting." "I'm sorry." "Goodbye." "Are you French?" "Well, it depends..." "I am French at heart, yes." "The rest, is international." "You haven't seen, by chance, a young blonde, blue eyes..." "A mouth... so pure, innocent, sweet..." "Very beautiful..." "No, no blondes at the moment." "I have a beautiful brunette." "Sir is looking for his wife." " Oh, yes?" "Well, she's not working here for me." "There's another house a little further, up the road." "Maybe she's working there." "You're full of vitality..." "My girls are fresh from Paris." "If you want to take it out a little..." "Why not make yourself comfortable?" "Ramón, that's enough!" "They don't come from Paris." "They come from the Foreign Legion." "What regiment were you in?" " The third." "Have you forgotten?" "The third and I we made war together." "Have you finished recalling your childhood memories?" "Jacques!" "Jacques!" "You forgot to put out the trash!" "A green dress..." "Really very beautiful." "Face of an angel..." "Swan's neck..." "Well, no answer?" "Can't you see it'll end in tears?" "Think you'll find them in such places, girls like that?" "Not in a million years...?" "That one will get a hole in his belly." "I don't like it." "You're crazy!" "Killing an Indian at dawn brings bad luck." "She must be somewhere on this beach, strangled..." "It had to happen." "Don't worry, she'll return." "That one always comes back." "This time too." "Give my regards to De Gaulle!" "They're gone now." "Poor baby!" "You mustn't feel down like that." "You're burning!" "Scoundrels!" "You're washed out, eh?" "I understand." "It happens to us all." "In the beginning, it's always so." "Then, after the settling in." "You know, you're beautiful?" "Come on, like you can do." "Be careful!" "It must have cost a fortune." "You could even see him, your husband." "He'll understand, right?" "You also need to go home, right?" "Don't cry..." "Your hands are very beautiful, you know?" "Take it easy." "One gets used to everything in life." "That's the trouble with it." "It's a filthy thing." " Don't think about it." "You're getting a bruise." "Have they been beating you?" "I can't live like this." "I can't..." "Don't be silly!" "Where do you live?" "I'll call a taxi, so you can go back home." "I can't." "I want to stay here." "But don't you know where you've ended up?" "Men come here just to let off steam." "Come, do their stuff.." "and then leave." "Always in a hurry, men." "You're very kind." " Me?" "No!" "The whore with a heart of gold." "That's only in old, French films." "She smiles at last." "Well, I'll call a cab." "Look, darling, you've had a bad experience." "Okay, you're not used to it, I know, but it's not the end of the world." "What should I say?" "In fact, you got away." "They might even have killed you." "They wouldn't." " Why, are you sorry?" "Yes, I pleaded." "They didn't listen to me." "It's not my fault!" "They were all... destroyed." "Brutalized." "Call a taxi." "It will be better for you." "And for me." "Because you bore me!" "Bore me!" "But what have I done?" "Cover up, you'll get cold." "I'll take you back." "What's your hotel?" "The Ambassador, but..." " But what?" "Could you send someone to get my stuff?" "Are you going to settle here?" "Only a few days." "How?" "Here, with me?" "I don't know where to go." "And your husband?" "If he finds you here, he'll kill you." "I don't care." "There are respectable women who come here, you know?" "How can they do it?" " I can't imagine." "What do you mean..." " What I said." "There are women like that?" " There are women like that." "It's horrible!" " Horrible?" "What does it mean "horrible"?" "It's not horrible, it's just so." "I never knew." " No?" "Now you know." "Do you still want to stay?" "Well, now you're afraid." "Yes, I'm afraid." " Of what?" "I didn't know that these things exist." "Everything exists." "Those women, why?" "They hope to find... a super-man." "You know, among many, one that satisfies." " Please!" "They hope there is." "One lives in hope, right?" "Hope is all." "Ah, if you want, I can... give you this room, it's mine." "You're very kind." "And I hope that you too will be kind to me." "Of course!" "I'll disturb you as little as possible." "I don't understand you." "I don't understand you at all." "I feel I'm about to do some more foolishness... and how." "Why let me stay here?" "But where are you from?" "The Moon?" "Beautiful as you are..." "I've never seen such a beautiful girl in all my life." "More foolishness on my part." "I can feel it." "Why so serious all of a sudden?" "There's no reason." "I've never seen hands like these." "You should get some sleep." " Yes, I'm dead tired." "Think no more of it." "Men are not important." "Leave a message at the hotel for your husband." "Saying not to worry." "Otherwise, he'll be back here." "I'd go straight to the doctor but I have no money." "I left my purse with the chauffeur." "I have some." "If you want, I'll come to Mexico with you?" "I had an emerald necklace, but those men stole it from me." "I'll take care of everything, my little dove." "Ah, this!" "The bastards are here." "They want to talk to you." "What a nerve?" "I'll call the police." "And necklace they pinched?" "I don't care!" " Oh, no!" "This isn't the end of it." "Amongmany,theyhopetofind one that satisfies." "They returned your necklace." "They removed it, apparently... to make you more comfortable." "They have no fear of the police." "It seems that they never raped anyone." "Listen..." "You came here by accident, or...?" "But you..." "You've the devil in you." "Hey you, what's up?" "Are you crazy?" "That woman has the devil in her." "She was born to suffer." " A bit of suffering brings you to life." "It's the last time I'm touring the world with her." "The world is too populated." "Too much!" "Soon, it will be a little less populated." "Are you waiting for my orders?" "It's the lady who gives me orders." "Why did you call me?" "You want to get it over with." "You agree, right?" "The next attack that strikes her and you return." "Which room?" "Where is she?" "Lady, seeing as you were kind enough to call us..." "She instructed me to tell you that she awaits you on the beach." "Over there." "The place is deserted." "You can do everything quietly." "You should have left me..." "I wanted to die and you should have let me die." "Disappointment in love?" "What's that... a broken heart?" " I don't know." "Why did you stop me?" " You know how it is." "A few more meters and it would have been over." "Don't cry." "No, it's water..." "And I couldn't let you drown." "Sorry." "Something bad happen?" "I'm like a Saint Bernard." "Know what they are?" "I must always save someone." "It's stronger than me." "You seem kind." "I beg you, leave me." "What happened to you?" "You know what it's called, what you want to do?" "Vandalism!" "Didn't they ever tell you that you are beautiful?" "It's like taking a Raphael Madonna and throwing it into the sea." "A Madonna..." "Yes." "Come on!" "No, don't touch me or I'll dirty you." "Where do they come from, the birds?" "From the islands off the coast." "They live over there and come here to die." "Why?" "There must be an explanation." "There's an explanation for everything." "And you, why?" "There's always an explanation, as you said." "Why did you want to die?" "My body disgusts me." "Looking for someone?" "You should have had me do it the last time, after Brazil." "Now, she's become egotistic, and started to enjoy it." "What do you mean?" " Come on!" "You understand." "She likes to suffer." "Enjoys being hurt." "And all the rest of it." "I'll show you the door, Ramón!" "I don't like these familiarities from those in my pay." "No one can do anything with her:" "neither doctors nor..." " Nor you." "Well, no." "The gentleman thinks only of the pleasure of his pain." "Shakespeare lied." "The true story of Othello... is that, Desdemona... betrayed him 100 times!" "And Othello has never had the courage to strangle her!" "It's empty!" "You should take off your dress." "Otherwise, you'll catch cold." "I'm never ill." "What are you doing in Peru?" "We're on a trip." "You and who?" "Is it a pleasure trip?" "Yes, a pleasure trip." "You and who?" "My husband... and his driver, handyman." "You ran away, right?" "They're looking for you and you're afraid." "Those birds... why do they come here to die?" "There are millions on the islands, offshore." "On the rocks, bare and cold." "The summer sun heats those cold stones." "But no one ever goes there." "And for the birds what's important:" "is that there are no people." "I often dream of those sanctuaries." "Those places full of sky, where nature is king." "Where we have yet to go." "When the birds feel the end approaching, they gather their last strength and fly here to the warm sand." "They let themselves fall and wait." "Why did you decide to die?" "For you it's never happened?" "No." "For a woman?" " Yeah." "Why else would you kill yourself?" "Was she very beautiful?" " So beautiful." "A creature of dreams." "But I've never met her." "It's terrible, I understand." "It's terrible..." "The waiting, the searching..." "I was already beginning to believe that the most beautiful love story was that of two beings who seek each other and never meet." "But I changed my mind." "Sometimes, reality is the most beautiful dream." "Reality..." "It's yours, here?" "This place?" "No." "I rented it for a year." "I'm on the brink of failure." "I'm one who always fails." "And starts again." "Well, I mean, something like that." "You're hiding?" " Yes." "From the police?" "Police?" "No, why?" "No, no." "Something much more dangerous." "Reality." "There's so much of it, you know." "I know." "Here, however, it's quite out of the way." "There's what's called..." ""a margin of safety."" "To get here, reality must travel at least 10km on foot." "Quite a way." "I'd better go." "Why do you want to leave?" "You love solitude." " Who, me?" "No, not at all." "No, only..." "I try to... get used to it." "Here I know a physical solitude." "So, one day, I can better withstand the other." "The real one." "What's your name?" "Adriana." "Why did you come here?" " And you?" "I am lost." "Me too." "I wrote a book of poems that no one ever read, nor ever will." "And I went to help the Africans." "Two years in Guinea." "They kicked me out, I was too white." "Six months in Cuba:" "kicked out." "It seems I was a kind of idealist, bourgeois and decadent." "Then next Bolivia:" "politically undesirable." "I'm one of those who exchange their boredom for a cause." "In short, one beach after another I found myself here." "It's not bad." "There's nothing." "And then, I saved three birds in one year." "It's already something." "You're very unhappy?" "Me?" "No more than the others." "I will be more so when you have gone." "You seem afraid." "What is it?" "What did they do, those bastards?" "Do they know you're here?" "I made an appointment with them." "But if you tried to kill yourself..." "I got tired of waiting!" "Your husband, eh?" "You're safe here." "I have to go now." " Where will you go?" "The next time you see a woman throw herself in the sea, have a heart." "Don't try and stop her." "But, if you try again I'll still save you." "I can't help it:" "I'm weak." "Don't go." "It's nothing, just a bird." "Stay, please." "On Sunday the boys look for the still living birds to finish them off with kicks." "A local sport." "And I spend my time trying to stop it." " You should let them do it." "It's better to die at once than agonize slowly." "Adriana..." "Don't leave me." "Do you want to make love to me?" " I expect a lot more than that." "You are like all the others." "You feel this..." "this thing in me." "And this is what attracts them." "It's irresistible." " It's true." "Beauty is irresistible." "And you are beautiful." "More..." "More!" "Forgive me." "You mustn't enjoy me." "It's my fault." "One tries to kill one's own prey." "As if at the last moment one could escape you." "You mustn't cry." "And who will soothe me?" "Do you regret it?" "Don't you want to tell me anything?" "Who you are?" "What they've done to you?" "After all, you're right." "Just as well." "I really have a horror of reality." "A bit of a poet, bit of a dreamer." " Here." "You're making fun of me." "I deserve it." "I don't want her to suffer." "I'll do it gently." "But, you're wrong." "For once, I feel something." "Humiliated you, eh?" "Poor Ramón..." "A big man like you, and nothing." "No effect." "Facing the impossible one surrenders." "I thought that a professional..." "I can melt ice, not marble." "Wait for me!" "Allah Almighty will forgive me, I hope." "I can't take it anymore." "Stop playing the victim." "Have you never heard of love?" "Only for a fee." " Then, it's the first time." "You're in love with her." "You can't not love her." "Isn't that so, Ramón?" "For $2,000 per month, I'd love anyone." "Poor Ramón... so much in love." "Madly in love." "I understand your humiliation." "Three years in the Legion." "Deserter, pimp." "Women of all kinds..." "And then, impotence." "It's a hard blow, eh?" "You want me to kill you?" "Well, yes, you know." "She wouldn't ask for anything more." "Well, don't count on me." " $5,000!" "Paid in advance." "The lady first." "I gave my word." "And my word is sacred." "I can't live without her." " You'll say that after." "Don't say anything!" "Don't say anything, please!" "Let's go have a beer, a French coffee." "Where?" " On the beach." "Let's have a drink, boys." "I thought you'd gone." "This is my friend." "Of course not!" "No way." "Search again." "They should already be here." "I didn't understand if you're afraid or looking forward to them." "Looking forward." "I'm tired of being afraid." "Of who?" "Of what?" "Of myself." "You won't go with him?" "That woman told me that she would call him." "What woman?" "A woman in a beach house." "But you know what kind of house it was?" "Yes." " Adriana!" "You're hiding something." "Something terrible." "Let me help you." "There's only God can help me." "But unfortunately," "God is not a Saint Bernard." "It's better waiting for them down there." "If they find me here, Ramón could easily kill you too." "Killing..." "It's the only thing he's good at." "They come here to kill you?" "Of course!" "You seem to enjoy it." "Yes." "As you see, I settle for so little." "But why?" "For what crime has your husband decided to kill you?" "It's an agreement between us." " So, no reason?" "I suffer from a disease... incurable." "But, soon, it will be over." "I saw the greatest doctors in the world." "They were full of fine words." "But, you, you can't imagine what it's like." "I fill some with repulsion They turn away from me with horror." "But many, instead... it excites them." "I hate them!" "Come, take a good look!" "Is it something you can see?" "Do I look like an invalid?" "It's absurd." "Even cancer is a disease like any other." "Here there's a guy who lived 12 years with leukemia." "Yes, I know." "You can live even like that." "You can live with anything." "Only I've had enough." "I've had enough..." "My body horrifies me!" "We are no longer in the Middle Ages." "You're not a leper." "Half poet... and half dreamer." " Adriana, listen to me!" "You can save yourself." "I know." "I feel it." "It's easy." "Yes..." "Maybe I'll save myself." "However, they'll arrive too late." " Too late?" "I've already met you." " You know nothing about me." "Nothing!" "It's better." "It'll be all clean." " No, I have to explain." "I don't want to know." " You asked for an explanation!" "My body is rotten!" "By now, it's all in the past." "Give up please, I want to die!" "Ramón will kill you." "Just as well." "You didn't think I'd want you to die alone?" "This gun has no bullets." "I threaten him, he takes fright and kills me with you." "I've never done anything good in my life." "It's a great opportunity." "One day, an hour, a second..." "Right now, what does it matter?" "I don't even know your name." " All the better, so you won't forget it." "Why do you want to die?" "I'm not worth the effort." "No, you're wrong." "You're worth it, and how!" "You don't think I'd not lift a finger with such a crime?" "It's not a crime." "There's another word for it." " It's not true." " Yes!" "Euthanasia." "No way." "I know you'll think of me tenderly." "Without contempt, without irony." "You have no idea how scornful men can be." "And ruthless." "Their laughter..." "It's the worst thing in the world." "The love scenes, you know what they're like?" "A customs inspection." "You exit their arms like you exit a search." "They're all filthy." "Forgive me." "I don't know any more what to say." "No, you're right." "They're like those who come here to finish off the birds." "Out of the way!" " Calm down, man!" "I was with her before you." "Last night, in the house of Fernanda." "She was there along with the other girls." "If you don't believe me, ask Fernanda." "If I were you, I'd kick her out." "She's sick, I tell you." "If not, she wouldn't do it." "Lies!" " There were others too." "Ask them." "It doesn't prove anything." " Whores, I respect them." "But the sick ones like that, they disgust me!" "Out!" "Out!" "Get out!" "Okay, okay, don't get worked up." "We just came to see." " We'll go somewhere else." "It's not true!" "It's all lies!" "He lied!" "They took me in a car to an abandoned house." "And..." "And..." "Then..." "Do you really believe me?" " Of course." "I don't disgust you?" " Oh no." "You don't even hate me?" " No." "It's a disease like any other, isn't it?" " Yes." "Yes." "Help me..." "And never leave me!" "I'll stay with you." "No matter what happens?" " Yes." "No matter what happens." "Sir... a bottle of scotch..." "Please." "I'm ready." "Empty..." "Dry." "I'm sorry, I've nothing to offer you." "Hear that, Ramón?" "He's nothing left." "Empty." "Well, Ramón?" "Is it done?" "No." "I was just scaring a bird." "The sun, the waves, the beauty of nature..." "Handsome, young man." "Even he hasn't succeeded." "True, love?" "Get out of here." "Come on, out!" "Out!" "You're French, I suppose?" "And even you have raised the white flag." "We were in France more than 6 months." "It was useless." "It's not true what they say about the French." "And the Spaniards." "My driver here is Spanish." "It proved to be a failure." "One more word and I'll kill you!" " Please, sit down." "The Lord will repay." "On this earth, there are things above the forces of a man." "Shoot well, sir." "Go on!" "And hurry!" "I'll even offer a reward." "$5,000." "Cash." "Go on!" "Look, it's a bargain." "I didn't think the gentleman would have the courage to do it." "Wanna bet?" " Well, let me offer these emeralds." "You can set up house." "If it's not enough, write me, my friend." "Psychoanalysts cost so much." "You will understand what I mean?" "He will understand." "I recall:" "Dr. Glasgow Montevideo, the most illustrious disciple of Freud." "He obtained miraculous cures." "Aren't I right, dear?" "Moreover, he described it all in his book." "What's it called?" "Something eternal..." "No..." "No, maybe I'm wrong." ""Prisoners of ice." No." "I can't remember the title." "Do you remember?" "That Baroness... who is only excited with the jockeys whose weight was 52 kg and 300 g exactly." "And that one who could only make love in elevators." "And the other who must have a revolver pressed to her temple... to warm her up." "Unfathomable are the mysteries of the human soul." "And the wife of that banker... who couldn't do it without the alarm of the safe." "And it was terribly inconvenient as it woke her husband." "Well, Dr. Glasgow healed them all." "All those women have become pure and honest." "Psychoanalysis solves everything." "Actually, we have already tried Dr. Glasgow." "Isn't it so, my dear?" "And it solved nothing." "Don't be discouraged, man." "And why not?" "Messalina was one, even her." "Still, she was an empress." "So, you don't want to shoot me, sir?" "You see, Ramón?" "I have the impression he doesn't feel like it." "You see that I'm condemned to live." " Don't give up." "Oh right!" "I forgot... the one that always needed... to make love in the middle of traffic." "The one who achieved ecstasy alone in the desert, listening to the cry of the muezzin." "And the one whose husband had to run ten times round the bed, and move all the furniture in the house." "Well, Dr. Glasgow..." "He cites all these interesting pathological cases in his famous book..." "Ah, yes, here!" ""The mystery that is called woman."" "Well then?" "Why don't you shoot me?" "It stirs you a little more." "If you don't react..." "It's hopeless." "Did you know, Ramón, that Messalina went to the houses of pleasure and offered herself to anyone?" "An Empress..." "And you must surely know what an illustrious and unsatisfied person has endorsed in women such as her?" "It is not necessary to hope to start something nor to succeed in order to persevere." "You are right to persevere, my little nymph." "But why did you save me?" "A few more meters and it was over!" "Sir, let me express my gratitude." "Ourgratitude,Iwantedtosay." "Let me on behalf of all the men past, present and future..." "Let him live!" "So he'll learn." "Yes, sir, as you wish." "Come on." " Don't worry, it will be done." "Ramón, don't forget me." " Yes, sir, don't worry." "You wanted my place, huh?" "The car keys and plane tickets are here." "There are three." "Can you drive?" "I'llstaywithyou ..." "Whateverhappens?" "Yes,nomatterwhathappens." "Can you drive?" "Then learn." "It's always useful." "Theyalwayshurry,men ." "Theyalwayshurry..."
