"Don't forget the hair." "I hope the cops are blind;" "I knew you right off." "Very funny..." "So long, ladies." "If I get your father out, will you marry me?" "Of course." "You think he can really get him out?" "He hasn't missed so far." "When do you see Papa?" "Next week." "Tell him I'm fine, but bored stiff." "How's the horse show?" "We haven't been; we'll go later." "He does have an accent." "I'm teasing;" "I like your country." "It's paradise, if discipline's your thing." "When do you compete?" "Tonight." "Got a chance?" "If I go fast, with no mistakes." "Staying at Manouchka's?" "Of course..." "She's waiting for you, too." "Jogging time" "You found it?" "I was 13 when I made that." "Never wears out." "Good luck tonight." "The Horse Show:" "Porte DE Versailles." "A fantastic saddle, I bet it's really comfortable." "If I win, it's yours." "You think it's hopeless?" "No, but I'd rather you offer it to me if you lose." "That way we salvage something." "Are you before Durandot?" "After." "I wish Papa could see you ride." "On the bed?" "It's original..." "It's superb." "My first saddle." "It's fabulous!" "I didn't see you buy it." "It wasn't me." "I love it when you're like this." "Is the horse coming next?" "It wasn't me." "It's beautiful, I can't tell you!" "I love you." "May I?" "The gala at the Opera will jam up traffic, so don't dawdle." "Come in, come in..." "Look what Antoine gave me." "It's Mexican." "It wasn't me." "You're adorable." "I love you!" "Whenever some VIP comes to town, it's murder." "How long to get to the Porte DE Versailles?" "First we have to get through this." "You go on when?" "I'm 39, just after 38." "When does number 39 go on?" "About half an hour." "SOVIET PREMIER AT OPERA TONIGHT" "The phone number of the Opera, please." "Yes, Opera..." "Like the metro stop." "The opera house?" "Give me your security chief, it's urgent." "Urgent, I said." "I'll be brief:" "The whole ceiling is mined." "With my remote control, I can blow the place up." "I also planted a micro camera so I can survey the Presidential box." "If he leaves his box or the performance stops, you go sky high." "By the end of the show, I want Fresnes Prison to release Simon Verini, cell 2017." "Verini free or a massacre at the Opera." "This isn't political, you can say he escaped." "The President is to stay put... and the show is to go on!" "A PHONE CALL CAN SAVE A LIFE" "You guarantee not to leak the truth." "The "escape" will have no link to this gala." "I said so, didn't I?" "I'll call in half an hour." "If Verini's out, I'll tell you how to defuse the bombs." "Get a move on!" "What's going on?" "Get dressed and fast." "You refuse to tell me." "You're escaping, didn't you know?" "You have 15 minutes to get out." "I get dressed..." "I leave and you shoot me down." "Don't complicate things." "I'm not, you are." "You leave or there's 2000 dead at the Opera." "2000 dead." "You're stir crazy." "Nothing better to do on a boring night?" "You'll go with me to a taxi." "You're releasing me." "You're escaping..." "there's a difference." "Lend me 100 francs for the taxi?" "Where to?" "Beats me..." "Roll for 100 francs." "When do I signal his escape?" "Hotel Balzac, please." "I began well." "I thought you had it." "THE GOVERNMENT WARNS TERRORISTS:" "WE WILL NOT GIVE IN TO BLACKMAIL" "What's going on?" "My cook heard on the radio that your father escaped." "That's crazy." "We'll listen to the news in my room." "How much is left?" "13 francs." "Drop me at a metro stop." "Verini knocked out a guard, took his uniform and keys... and escaped from the cell block." "He held a gun on two more guards... which got him through the last gate." "The owner of the Hotel Balzac?" "Speaking." "Inspector Dupuis here;" "I'd like to see you." "Certainly, Inspector." "Where?" "You'll have to come to Rome." "Rome... in Italy." "Is it urgent?" "As fast as you can." "I'll take the first plane." "Is it the Rome metro stop or Place d'Italie?" "He said Rome first, I'll try it." " Can I come?" " No way!" "Stay here;" "The cops will be along any minute." "You had a million calls, where were you?" "Where were you?" "If I said at the opera, would you believe me?" "Don't go, we have to talk." "You do bring luck." " Good night?" " Jam-packed." "Come to my wedding?" "It's set?" "The Swiss girl?" "Not a word to anyone." "What did he say?" "It's a secret..." "He's getting married." "Miss Verini, please." "You can't marry all three of us." "If I'm the lucky winner..." "Instead of the organ playing Mendelssohn, how about a little Mozart?" "Are you there?" "I got a horse for the saddle." "Who was it?" "What's wrong?" "I did something stupid." "Give me Miss Verini again." "Listen, pass me Manou." "She's in Rome, in Italy." "Rome... as in Italy." "By the W3?" "I give back your promise." "No idea, maybe they want to kill me later on." "Or I look like someone who needs a double." "All this terrorism and bombing... maybe they need my cell, what do I know?" "I don't get it, but... just the same, if I escaped, I escaped." "Now I need a hideout." "Where did he come from?" "Tonight nothing surprises me." "Hello lovebirds, do I disturb?" "Don't talk nonsense." "What're you doing here?" "I didn't dream he'd do it." "A promise to a hoodlum has no validity." "Now we know who sent the saddle." "You owe no thanks to a hoodlum." "You're a great guy... when things go right." "And he's great when they don't." "How long did you plan it?" "If I'd planned it, I wouldn't have done it." "I can't believe they didn't check." "Usually in a bomb alert, they stop the show... and get people out I didn't let them." "You're quite a bastard." "You insult your future son-in-law." "You putting me on?" "You don't think I did it for you?" "You been laying her?" "No, I swear..." "Not yet." "Let's not argue over some punk." "Stop it, Antoine." "It's all set." "Can I see him?" "First we'll pick up Chariot." "It's cold out." "I don't care, I'm fine." "I'd rather you didn't come." "Don't want me along?" "No!" "You've met?" "No, but I've heard about you." "Simon Verini:" "Gaston." "He needs a hideout and safe passage." "Manouchka already called." "Tomorrow I've got a barge going to Germany." "Coffee?" "So did she take back her promise?" "No idea, I hung up." "Reminds me of Fresnes." "You don't seem happy." "When you travel at my age, you'd rather go first class." "What will you do about Marie Sophie?" "I'll be gone when she comes." "Funny, you're always mad at me." "Would I be in this mess if you hadn't showed up... 10 years ago when I was fishing?" "Speaking of fishing, there's everything you need here." "He did it alone?" "With 3 phone calls and a 3-franc investment." "I always said he was smart." "Smart?" "I think it's sick!" "It's shameful, immoral." "Now he's a terrorist, too." "But your father's free." "I bet he's not proud of it." "Not the big sermon again." "I'm sorry but it stinks..." "it's really low." "Remember you gave your word." "He gave it back." "He's even straighter than I thought." "Love like that doesn't grow on trees." "That's what worries me." "Is it far?" "I don't believe my eyes!" "Coffee?" "What a crazy story." "With all the goings-on these days... nothing crazy about it." "I'm fast asleep and they wake me up to throw me out." "Instead of drowning it, take it off." " Better?" " More practical." "Will you be here long?" "In a few hours we go to Germany." "Can I go?" "With every cop in France on my tail?" "I'll tell you when it's okay." "Mozart's not here?" "No, Mozart's not here." "Mozart's fishing." "He's an expert, remember?" "We could test it out." "Test it out?" "Want to fish?" "Want me to kiss you?" "Want me to stop fishing?" "Make a choice or I'll kiss you." "Does Papa agree?" "Preliminary test." "Secondary test." "Not quite the final test, but not bad." "BANDITS EVERYWHERE!" "Subtitles:" "Anne BRAV" "Subtitled by TVS" " TITRA FILMM"
