"Become who you are" "MY DEAR DEPARTED!" "They're staying too long..." "Why did he leave?" "I thought he'd stay forever, since he was dead." "He was fed up after his image was spoiled." "We thought he was a war hero, a boxing champion, and in the end his honour was gone." "Or maybe he didn't like that image, and was relieved after telling the truth." "He was able to leave once we saw the truth about him." "Straightforward, lovable... and brave." "Thank you!" "Thank you!" "Long live the champion!" "Victor..." "It's Victor Mayence!" "An autograph, please." "Marianne!" "Wait." "What can I say?" " Odd, meeting you here." " Yes..." "No." "Actually I work here." "Are you still a writer?" "Yes." "I'm stupid..." "When can I see you?" "I'm here for 2 weeks, guest of the culture dept." "Publicity." "Amazing." "Ever since school..." "Here." "Call me." "How do you do it?" "Still just as lovely." "Well..." "See you soon, maybe." "I can't talk to you at home." "What's up?" "We have to divorce." "If I go to jail, you'll be homeless." "My father and brother run a brothel in the spa, calling it physiotherapy, as if I was organizing it." "The health service pays." "Sorry..." "It's not funny." "You never realized?" "If Carmen tells, I'm doomed." "They'll think I knew." "I'll get jail and a huge fine." "They'll take the house off us." "If we divorce, they can't take the house." "You're safe." "I won you by fighting the Butcher." "I don't do safe." "I want to live." "I want to see you." "Not now, I don't have time." "I won't divorce and I won't go to jail for you and no one will fleece my wife because of you!" "Got it?" "So you get me out of this shit you put me in." "What can I do?" "It's because of Carmen." "Carmen wants you." "So marry her and finish all this." "Carmen's my biggest mistake ever, making me lose my true love:" "your mother." "I'll do anything to get her back." "You cheated her, left her, swindled your son!" "What a lover!" "No need for sarcasm." "It's hard enough already." "Anyway, I'll never marry Carmen!" "Why did Alphonse go and not me?" " And why not me?" " You!" "Who offered herself to Rebec?" "It was me who had to spend a night with him!" " She boasts about it!" " Stop." "Alphonse didn't go because he helped, but because he was honest and loving." "Maybe that's the key:" "love and truth." "Love and truth." "you should try it." "How come these two hate each other?" "It's not hate." "They just quarrel." "They always did." "Sorry, it's David." "Good news, he's back tomorrow." ""Baby"?" "Whoever she is, she's not pleased with you." ""Baby"..." " Hello, Baby." " Hypocrite!" "Liar!" "You've let me down." "Cheating on me with my husband's slut." "Don't deny it, I saw you after the tournament." "You mean Marianne?" "Let's get this clear." "I live with her." "I've been her godfather since she was 2, her guardian when her mother died." "I saw her children born." "She gave my life meaning." "She's what I hold most precious." "And Marianne's not your husband's mistress." "Get that into your head." "And don't go calling her a slut again!" "I could get nasty." "Oh, Jérôme..." "I need a smack." "I spent a night with Brigitte." " With your fantasy, you mean." " She's a fantasy." "No." "She's an atom bomb." "Know what I'm obsessed with now?" "Winning her back." "Not just sexually." "How can I be the man she loved 40 years ago?" "The main thing is to think about what seduced Brigitte then." "A revolutionary adventurer." "Revolutionary..." "I'd been in Cuba when I met her." "I'd seen Che Guevara." "That impressed her." "I've found a photo." "Then we went to Katmandu." "I bought her some boots." "She was thrilled with them..." "with me." "We all fantasize about our past, more or less consciously." "How can you link this fantasy with the man you are now?" "That's my idea." "Conclusion:" "I have to act." " Good." " "Good"!" "Thank you." "You want me to pretend he can get me back?" "You've got a nerve." "I can't stand him." "Not for real, Mum." "To get him to marry Carmen." "I can't do it." "My best quality is honesty." "Make an effort, I beg you." "For me." "If you don't, I'll lose the lot." "You can save my life." " Aren't you exaggerating a bit?" " OK..." "Just think about it." "1." "Are you on my side?" "2." "It's your chance to make Dad pay." "Because Carmen will give him hell." "Hello." "Victor Mayence, an old friend of Marianne's." "José Portal, her husband." "How do you do." "I was passing and wondered, if she was here, if we could have a chat." "She's having a bath." "Sorry." "No problem." "I just..." "I'll tell her." "Shit, my car!" "Oh!" "My car!" ""Anne-Laure quivered all over." ""She hated that man." ""Why reject her when she'd given her all?" ""Paul looked at her with disdain..."" "Already back?" "You were right to push me." "I'm working on a plan to neutralize Carmen." "My last chance, so I'll give it all I've got." "I'm sure it'll work." "Who was that at the door?" " What's so funny?" " It was..." "Victor Mayence, your old flame at school." "He called, and he left on foot." "Your mother and grandma - for once, I adore them - drove off in his car." "I'd really like to join you." "I was just getting out." "A pity." "I love you." "I love you too." "I'm at Tékila Sunrise." "Will you come, this time?" "V." ""Anne-Laure quivered all over." ""She hated that man."" "Want one?" "Same again, please." "17 July 1991." "Remember?" "How I hated you." "I waited at the station, like an idiot, thinking the world belonged to me." "I was waiting for you to join me to go to Paris." "But you never came." "It's strange..." "I thought I'd forgotten you, but when I saw you again..." "Shall we go and make love?" "I have a husband..." "I care about." "Don't talk about him." "He seems nice." "We hated each other." " Would you divorce him?" " No." "I'm going home." "He said your car was stolen." "That's awful." "Yes, and me trying to impress you." "Something strange happened when I was there." "I thought I saw your mum and grandma." "I know it's ridiculous, but..." "It was weird." "As if the 20 years had never happened, and we could start again." "I must go, Victor." "You know Mum can't lie about her feelings." "Honesty's her thing." "You've already seen that." "Exactly." "You told me horrible things:" ""bad father", "rotten crook"..." " That I disgusted you..." " It's true." "Was true, Mum!" "You said you'd believe in Dad's feelings if he gave you proof of his love, best of all if he married Carmen." "Sure, if you sacrificed a year to stop Carmen's blackmail harming José and the spa, I'd take a very positive view." "You'd do it for José, not me." "Come on, Dad!" "If I sacrifice a year of my life," "I want to be sure you'll marry me afterwards." "That's what I want." "But I need a whole year to forgive your infidelity..." "That's not a lot to ask." "OK." "But I want this year to be like an engagement, so we can date..." "See, you're already going too far." "I need to test your love." "Just a kiss then." "I need to feel that I excite you, Lucie." "Ah!" "There you are, Francis." "I asked him to call." "Will you be Dad's best man?" "Oh, because you..." "you two are getting married again?" "Yes." "But first I'm marrying Carmen." "On your own?" "Félix is at Kevin's, Claire's with David and José's at his parents'." " Will you have some?" " No." "I can't eat anything." " I saw Victor again." " Ah..." "Stop me seeing him." "He only has to lift his finger..." "Remind me of why I chose José." "Because you loved him." "And you didn't think Victor was sincere." "I was stupid." "Not to choose José, of course, but to doubt Victor." "He seems as much in love as ever." "He knows how to fool you, my dear." "Reject the temptation before it's too late." "No." "Have a fling with him and you'll be cured." "When it's done it'll be forgotten." "You can't advise me till you tell me where that car is." "I've been waiting." "I wanted to meet your flight, but I had a class." "How are you?" "I brought you a present." "Thank you." "I missed you so much, Claire." "Are you scared of me?" "It's not that." "You're going too fast." "Too fast?" "I've waited 2 years for you, Claire." "We're in love." "I don't see why you still refuse." "Maybe it's silly, but I want to be pure the day God unites us." "Like the Virgin." " Then let's get married." " Yes!" "As soon as I'm of age." "That's another 4 months." "Till then I need parental permission." "I won't get it." "They still think I'm a baby." "You're a woman, little Claire." "Show them that." "4 months is nothing, David, as we'll have a whole life together." "Shall we pray?" "Another time." "I must go." "I have to hear confession." "I don't know what to think, José." "A son doesn't propose for his father." "He didn't dare propose, after all he's done to you..." "Knpw what changed him?" "The heart attack." "That's when he realized what mattered in his life: you." "High time too, for he nearly lost me." "On your knees." "Sorry?" "Ask me on your knees, or I'll refuse." "Carmen, will you marry me?" "Hello, hello!" "He was such fun, my dad." "If I'd known he'd disappear, I'd have made the most of him." "Shall we play a game?" "It'll cheer you up." "Look what I found." "I think it's Alphonse's father, your grandpa." ""Clemenceau inaugurates the slave memorial" ""with his young secretary, Georges Elbert."" "It's the only Georges Elbert." "The dates fit." " He worked for Clemenceau." " Ridiculous!" "He's black!" "His parents were both white!" "They couldn't have a black son." "You're white, and you had Brigitte." ""I've waited 20 years, 20 years too long." "Victor."" "Marianne?" "Darling!" "Your husband's not divorcing you." "Dad's marrying Carmen." "Isn't it great?" "You did it..." "Well done." "Let's celebrate." "I'm dying to rip this shirt off you." "How nice, bringing roses for your wife." " It wasn't me." " Nor me." "No, it's me who bought them for my husband." "To bring you luck." "Thank you, darling." "I'm going to make love to my wife." "Keep out of our room." "Oh, no..." "I want to request your daughter's hand." "Your daughter will want for nothing." "The Evangelist Church is big business." "I'm planning a huge network across Europe, even worldwide." "With the crisis, the distress industry's booming." "I get that, David." "But I don't see what's so urgent." "Claire, you must pass your exams." "That's the main thing now." "But I'll make sure she succeeds." "A preacher's wife must be educated." ""I think only of you!" V." ""I want you..." V." "Sorry." "It's Babette." "But... you never mentioned marriage before." "She's scared you'll refuse permission." "One of you must give it, as she's under age." "We'll think about it, David." "Goodbye, Marianne." "Goodbye, José." "Honestly..." "Can you see her with this preacher, a sales rep for God?" "Whatever you want, we'll agree." "But I don't see why you need to hurry." "In a few months, I'm sure we won't oppose her wishes." "First love's a big thing." "You never know what may happen." "A twist of fate, an accident..." "Anything." "I'll sign the permission, angel." "I guess mothers understand their daughters better." "If your mother agrees..." "Do you think we went wrong with her?" "I don't know." "She's..." "She's unusual." "But if she loves him, there's no need to stop her." "She's 17." "A baby." ""A baby?"." "No more than I was when we married." "True." "I remember the first time we made love." "Day after your mother died." "Remember?" "I could hardly forget." "I don't want to stop my daughter living her life." "Why do you say that?" "Who's that?" "My father." "He thinks he's Che Guevara." "One thing you just don't get:" "you're not the man I loved." "But you can still sing." "Why this sweater?" "I'm cold." ""With you I can do anything." ""Change my life..." ""kidnap you..." ""Drown in your laughter." ""Make love to you." ""Real love." ""The kind that overcomes everything." ""Would we get it wrong again?"" "That's from 10 years ago, and I can recite it." "I wrote all my books thinking of you." "Funny, you can be silly and yet display all the skills of a womanizer on the beach." "Girls must fall at your feet." "Are you laughing at me?" "I mean it." "Yes, you're right." "In fact, I'm empty." "I run on automatic pilot:" "I flirt, I write..." "Want to see me naked?" "I'm naked!" "You're just a puppet, Victor Mayence!" "A poor idiot in love with a woman who laughs at him!" "Marianne, I love you!" "I love you." "Stop it, you'll catch cold." "Champagne." "You're making a huge mistake." "Just let her screw, OK?" "Go away or I'll murder you." "Take me home." "Look, José." "Protect her from herself before it's too late." "If I was jealous, paranoid," "I'd think it wasn't her who bought them for me... but him, for her." "That she's started lying." "With more to come." "Were we together when she fell for him?" "Don't get upset." "It was nothing much." "We didn't see him after Brigitte died." "You loved her." "You saved her, José." "Don't spare me." "If he left her and she turned to me, no wonder he's a star." "Did they have sex?" "No." "That's worse." "What?" "Nothing." "Right." "Right what?" "Well... nothing." "Right, nothing then." "Yes, that's it." "Where's the bride?" "All well and good, but I've a meeting about the new dustbins." "Pretend to be worried." "Our divorce is at stake here." "I am worried." "Ah!" "Off we go!" "Let's get going." "What's she doing at my wedding?" "I asked her to come." " Come on, we're late." " Your ex-wife?" "Why?" " For support." " To witness your triumph." "All of us are here." "I'm off." "I won't spoil it." "The perfect couple." "I wish you every happiness." "Stay, Lucie." "Otherwise..." "Otherwise I won't marry her." "Quick!" "Or I'll lose my resolve." "Say that again." "If she leaves, you won't marry me?" "He wants to humiliate me again." " I want an explanation!" " Here it is then:" "I've had enough of you, Carmen." " It's Lucie I love." " You're a total idiot!" "You'll pay for this for a lifetime, Fernand!" "Oh dear..." "Oh!" "Carmen, it was a joke." "He loves you!" ""One last dinner!" V." "Do you find me ridiculous too?" "Be honest." "I blame you for encouraging me." "I didn't do that." "You did." "When I said I'd act, you said: "Good."" "I said "Good" to mark the end of the session." "It's interesting, the way you understood it." "Let's consider it." "I don't give a toss!" "What I want is Brigitte's love." "I'm sure I could make her happy if I was younger, less bitter, less, more..." "I don't know." "I propose 3 sessions next week, to speed up your therapy." "How stupid I am!" "Why didn't I think of that?" "That's what she likes, speed!" "Thanks, Doctor!" "Sweetheart, we'll fill it in together." " No!" "I'll do it myself." " What?" "What's going on, Claire?" "Marriage licence form" "Are you OK?" "Ah..." "Right, where do I sign?" "Anywhere." "Like a school report." "Sign without looking." " What's wrong?" " Dont touch me!" "You're not going to let her marry him?" "You're mad!" "Help..." "Is it here?" " Introduce me to Marianne." " Not today, baby." "Stop." "I'll get out here." "It's not nice." "Having dinner with that terrible girl and that husband..." "Solange, you have fun in the casino, and with me." "But I want something crazy, something forbidden." "Understand?" "I want to wear pink, go pickpocketing..." "I don't know." "Tomorrow I'll take you to the supermarket." "Yes!" " Am I still your slut?" " Oh yes, baby." "I have to go." "That's what you call a bike!" " Want a ride, baby?" " I certainly do, darling Gégé." "Brigitte!" "Gérard, is it you?" "Yes." "Get in." "This is my plane tree." "A friend." "That's where me and my bike died." "Why bring me here?" "Because I love you." "Why marry that goody two-shoes?" "You don't love him." "Yes, I do!" "How do you know, anyway?" "I know." "When you find love, you know it." " How?" " Your body tells you." "It may be annoying." "Or disgusting." "It can be the loveliest, craziest thing." "It fills your life." "It's love that makes the difference." "I'm glad I experienced it once." "With Rebec, right?" "Brigitte..." "You're not a baby now, Marianne." "I can talk to you woman to woman." "Beware of very seductive men, snakes that hypnotize you with fine eyes and hollow words." "Please, Grandma!" "I know what you're going to say." "Franz also got me drunk on champagne, sweet nothings." "He made me think I was the most beautiful creature." "I thought it was love, too." "It was just lies." "He got me pregnant, refused to recognize his daughter, went off to marry a big fat German." "I didn't know, Grandma." "I'm sorry you went through that." "How awful." "Not all men are like that." "No." "You found a good husband." "I told you, it's very important for a woman." "But your Victor's another Franz!" "Trust me!" "Avoid him like the plague!" "Grandma, come and see!" "Still at your machine?" "It's not good for you." "Remember Captain Bouvier, who shot Alphonse?" "Of course." "The betrayed husband?" "He took me from my mother and put me in an orphanage." "Look at this." "Here he is." "That's him." "See his medals?" "He thinks he's a hero." " What are you doing?" " Saving Alphonse's honour." "Don't tell anyone." "Don't go!" "You'll do something stupid!" "Wait for me!" "Faster!" "Still faster!" "I'll be out tonight." "With Malouin." "He wants to talk." "Why this dress?" "Going out?" "With Victor." "He leaves tomorrow." "Will you let me?" "As you wish." "Nothing happened, and nothing will." "I'm off." "Thanks." "Champagne, please." "I've a signing tomorrow in Cassis." "I must go." "Better this way." " I prefer it." "I'm lost." " Oh..." " There." " Thank you." "I'm confused." "Everything's out of control." "Taste this." "It'll help." "I have 2 things to tell you." "First, I'm buying Figard's." "Great." "I told you it was yours if you wanted it." " I'm in shit." " Not if you're my partner." " I've a proposal." " Can't do it." "I have nothing." "Only ?" "100,000 of debt." "And the rest." "I'll call a lawyer." "I can't stand it." "The spa's a brothel." "Your napkin." "What about my napkin?" " Here." " What's this?" "Victor..." "My grandmother gave them to me before she died." "Fot the woman of my life." "They're for you." "No." "No." "I can't do this." "It's our last evening." "I want to keep it light." "Exactly, let me dream." "Just for 2 hours." "Please." "For the dinner." ""Félix is not at home." Jérôme" "She fancies you." "Give her some fireworks!" "Then clear off." "Or I'll have your balls." " A problem?" " No." "You look divine." "?" "100,000?" "You're crazy." "I..." "I can't accept." " Why do that?" " So you can do what you want." "Make wine." "Go on, José." "It's easy." "Accept it." "Life's too short." "Live your passion." "You sound like my wife." "Really?" "It's natural." "She loves you too." "Come and rest in my room." "Tony does men too." "Really well." "It's not working." "We have to divorce." "Don't be embarrassed." "I don't expect to be loved back." "My son's missing." "I have to go." "You made me drink too much." " Thanks." "Bye." " Bye." " Thank you." "Bye." " Bye." "My hotel's nearby." "I need to walk a bit." "Shit!" "She's still on voicemail." "Tell me, are you looking for Mum or Félix?" "Where's the old woman?" "If she gets to leave before me, I'll have a fit." "I had a great time." "Is everyone OK?" "Where's Félix?" "If anything's happened to him..." " Where were you?" " Out on a job." "We couldn't leave the bastard with his medals." "What will you do?" "Give them to Alphonse, to make up." "Where is Marianne?" "You demon, did you push her to do wrong?" " Piss off, you old bag!" " Oh, you two!" "Love and truth." "If anyone knows where my wife is..." "I'm not acting now." "The truth is, I hate you." "I hate you!" "I hate you!" "Vile girl!" "I curse the day you were born!" "Who's talking this way in my home?" "I'm Georges Elbert." "And who are you?" "Subtitles:" "Eclair Media"
