The Sexual Life Of The Belgians
1950 - 1978
1
00:01:23,545 --> 00:01:25,345
My mother had nice tits.
2
00:01:25,446 --> 00:01:28,746
I remember them well. I sucked them for two years.
3
00:01:29,947 --> 00:01:33,548
Better and cheaper
than powdered milk.
4
00:01:39,050 --> 00:01:40,951
Then came chips and lentils.
5
00:01:41,150 --> 00:01:43,751
They're fillingwith lots of vitamins.
6
00:01:46,152 --> 00:01:49,553
Cheap.
- My God, he talks!
7
00:01:52,354 --> 00:01:55,255
At 13, I always wore shorts.
8
00:01:55,455 --> 00:01:57,455
Everyone laughs at me.
9
00:01:57,656 --> 00:01:58,956
But they show
your nice thighs off.
10
00:01:59,457 --> 00:02:01,557
And your trousers
won't wear out so quick.
11
00:02:01,757 --> 00:02:04,158
Yeah, and they're cheap.
12
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,361
On his days off,my dad looked after his pigeons.
13
00:02:14,562 --> 00:02:16,161
There are three kinds of pigeons:
14
00:02:16,362 --> 00:02:19,863
Those that win races,those we cook
15
00:02:20,263 --> 00:02:23,965
and my dad's, that fly awayand never come back.
16
00:02:27,666 --> 00:02:29,066
No.
17
00:02:30,067 --> 00:02:33,067
When she was 18 my sister Arianedressed like my mother.
18
00:02:44,471 --> 00:02:47,772
No!
I won't wear that dress!
19
00:02:48,272 --> 00:02:50,373
I look ridiculous!
20
00:02:50,773 --> 00:02:52,674
No, no!
21
00:02:54,475 --> 00:02:57,876
On Sundays, after the mass,we went to the country.
22
00:03:11,980 --> 00:03:13,680
We could buy a car.
23
00:03:13,881 --> 00:03:16,281
Everyone's got one now.
24
00:03:16,482 --> 00:03:18,782
But bikes are healthy.
25
00:03:19,083 --> 00:03:21,283
And they're cheap.
26
00:03:22,484 --> 00:03:25,384
Bed and no dinner for you
when we get home.
27
00:03:28,586 --> 00:03:31,186
One day Arianefound a stray dog.
28
00:03:32,587 --> 00:03:34,587
She named it Marouf.
29
00:03:34,787 --> 00:03:37,388
It's moulting again!
30
00:03:38,789 --> 00:03:41,589
Jerome, do something
with that dog.
31
00:03:44,090 --> 00:03:47,491
It moults and scratches.
32
00:03:47,692 --> 00:03:50,493
Dogs like that ruin sofas.
33
00:03:50,693 --> 00:03:54,294
Sofas have to be replaced
and they cost a lot.
34
00:03:55,694 --> 00:03:58,095
Jerome, please.
35
00:04:05,097 --> 00:04:09,299
Come on, boy,
we're going for a walk.
36
00:04:09,699 --> 00:04:11,700
Wait, I'll come too.
37
00:04:17,602 --> 00:04:21,903
He hit it on the head with a hammerand threw it in a pit.
38
00:04:31,306 --> 00:04:32,907
Marouf!
39
00:04:40,409 --> 00:04:42,210
... to take the hand
40
00:04:42,509 --> 00:04:46,611
of Fabiola de Mora y Aragon
41
00:04:46,811 --> 00:04:49,012
before you. - Yes.
42
00:04:49,212 --> 00:04:50,413
It's dead.
43
00:04:50,612 --> 00:04:56,714
Fabiola de Mora y Aragon,did you come of your own free will
44
00:04:56,914 --> 00:05:01,115
to join in holy matrimonywith Baudouin, King of the Belgians?
45
00:05:01,316 --> 00:05:03,316
You killed it.
46
00:05:23,723 --> 00:05:25,723
A few weeks latershe met a man
47
00:05:26,624 --> 00:05:28,925
and called him "darling".
48
00:05:37,327 --> 00:05:39,928
Before, she used to goto the market with mum.
49
00:05:40,128 --> 00:05:42,329
Ah, Noella.
- The cherries are dear.
50
00:05:42,830 --> 00:05:45,130
She didn't use to like it.
- 10 francs for the oranges, OK?
51
00:05:45,330 --> 00:05:46,231
No, 12 francs.
52
00:05:46,630 --> 00:05:48,931
Me neither.
- 11 francs, the market's closing.
53
00:05:49,231 --> 00:05:50,732
They cost me 12 francs.
54
00:05:50,932 --> 00:05:53,133
The market's over.
You won't sell them.
55
00:05:53,333 --> 00:05:55,333
OK, 11 francs.
You want a kilo?
56
00:05:55,534 --> 00:05:57,133
No, half.
57
00:05:58,834 --> 00:06:02,135
Noella, why me?
58
00:06:02,336 --> 00:06:03,936
Here you are.
59
00:06:05,436 --> 00:06:08,338
Let's go, Martha.
60
00:06:10,338 --> 00:06:14,639
Aunt Martha was beautiful,but she always did what she pleased.
61
00:06:14,939 --> 00:06:17,140
She always dressed the same,
62
00:06:17,340 --> 00:06:20,342
and never wore knickers.
63
00:06:21,741 --> 00:06:23,943
I liked Aunt Martha a lot.
64
00:06:27,144 --> 00:06:28,545
She didn't have any kids.
65
00:06:28,744 --> 00:06:32,545
She said the world was too horrible,but she liked life.
66
00:06:36,447 --> 00:06:39,748
Aunt Martha,
why aren't things as we want them?
67
00:06:39,948 --> 00:06:42,048
It's because of that poof up there.
68
00:06:42,649 --> 00:06:45,149
She liked the cinema best.
69
00:06:45,349 --> 00:06:46,650
She took me there all the time.
70
00:06:46,850 --> 00:06:49,551
The first film she took me towas "Johnny Guitar".
71
00:06:51,251 --> 00:06:53,252
It was magic.
72
00:07:05,556 --> 00:07:07,857
How many men have you forgotten?
73
00:07:15,759 --> 00:07:19,060
How many women do you remember?
74
00:07:20,261 --> 00:07:22,062
Are they real?
75
00:07:22,262 --> 00:07:25,563
Yes, but they live over the ocean.
76
00:07:25,763 --> 00:07:27,163
Is it far?
77
00:07:29,764 --> 00:07:31,665
They're going to kiss.
78
00:07:32,965 --> 00:07:34,966
Lie to me.
79
00:07:35,266 --> 00:07:38,467
Tell me you waited for meall these years.
80
00:07:39,668 --> 00:07:42,068
I waited for you all these years.
81
00:07:42,468 --> 00:07:44,169
Look, little love...
82
00:07:44,369 --> 00:07:47,570
I bet they end up
getting married.
83
00:07:48,070 --> 00:07:51,671
She's going to steal his money?
- What do you think, eh?
84
00:07:52,672 --> 00:07:55,572
I didn't stop loving you one second.
85
00:07:55,873 --> 00:07:58,474
I waited for you so long, Johnny.
86
00:08:01,474 --> 00:08:04,775
Why did you wait so long?
87
00:08:19,780 --> 00:08:22,181
I never saw my parents kiss.
88
00:08:22,481 --> 00:08:26,882
I wondered howthey could have made a baby.
89
00:08:27,183 --> 00:08:28,984
Me, for example.
90
00:08:36,886 --> 00:08:39,586
It must have been on a special day.
91
00:08:39,887 --> 00:08:43,388
My father was a workerat the Lano textile factory.
92
00:08:43,588 --> 00:08:47,590
He worked 8 hours a day,with overtime some Saturdays,
93
00:08:47,789 --> 00:08:50,590
and came home at 5pm every day.
94
00:08:51,791 --> 00:08:55,692
I think it was that day the bossasked him to become foreman
95
00:08:55,893 --> 00:08:57,793
and he refused.
96
00:08:58,392 --> 00:09:01,793
"Foreman", that meanslook after the stock,
97
00:09:02,094 --> 00:09:05,795
orders, invoices,things to read and write.
98
00:09:06,795 --> 00:09:10,897
That was a problem for him,reading I mean.
99
00:09:11,597 --> 00:09:15,298
He was posing when he flickedthrough his newspaper.
100
00:09:15,499 --> 00:09:17,399
My father couldn't read or write.
101
00:09:26,902 --> 00:09:27,902
Hi!
102
00:09:41,307 --> 00:09:43,308
What you drinking, Noella?
103
00:09:43,508 --> 00:09:46,308
Six beers, please.
104
00:10:04,815 --> 00:10:07,315
Help me, goddamned!
105
00:10:08,216 --> 00:10:11,717
Not like that,
you're fucking hurting me!
106
00:10:16,718 --> 00:10:18,819
What a wanker!
107
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,321
You're a pain in the neck.
- Shut up!
108
00:10:25,521 --> 00:10:29,123
Go on, help me!
109
00:10:31,724 --> 00:10:34,125
Not so hard, sucker!
110
00:10:36,624 --> 00:10:40,927
God, what did I do to get
such a stupid husband?
111
00:11:44,346 --> 00:11:47,148
Once in front of the ovary,
112
00:11:47,548 --> 00:11:49,949
I must have hesitated.
113
00:11:50,248 --> 00:11:52,549
But because otherswere pushing me up
114
00:11:52,749 --> 00:11:54,551
I had to give in.
115
00:11:55,250 --> 00:11:57,952
They always get you.
116
00:12:13,257 --> 00:12:16,057
You should never
be ashamed of your body.
117
00:12:25,961 --> 00:12:28,562
When you grow up,
you'll be a famous author.
118
00:12:28,761 --> 00:12:31,262
You'll surprise them all.
119
00:12:34,963 --> 00:12:36,964
Aunt Martha diedthis side of the ocean.
120
00:12:38,965 --> 00:12:41,865
For once, she wore knickers.
121
00:12:42,666 --> 00:12:44,266
Get away from there.
122
00:12:45,667 --> 00:12:48,968
Put a jumper on,
you'll get fucking ill again.
123
00:12:54,569 --> 00:12:56,970
Look at this lazy slob.
124
00:12:57,271 --> 00:12:59,671
Jerome, wake up.
125
00:13:04,173 --> 00:13:05,774
Come on!
126
00:13:12,175 --> 00:13:14,876
For God's sake, Jerome!
127
00:13:15,177 --> 00:13:17,477
I think he's dead, Mum.
128
00:13:21,279 --> 00:13:23,079
The fool.
129
00:13:29,382 --> 00:13:31,482
It's hardly the right moment.
130
00:13:34,983 --> 00:13:38,084
Just before he gets
his seniority bonus.
131
00:13:44,586 --> 00:13:46,487
Noella,
132
00:13:47,587 --> 00:13:50,088
I got you the cheapest one.
133
00:13:53,990 --> 00:13:57,290
You did well, Gilbert.
The dead don't know.
134
00:13:59,391 --> 00:14:00,892
Go on, 15,000.
135
00:14:01,091 --> 00:14:03,592
15,000? Go away!
136
00:14:04,692 --> 00:14:07,293
I had to go to the quarry
to get it.
137
00:14:07,594 --> 00:14:09,694
I brought it all the way
back here, cut it...
138
00:14:09,894 --> 00:14:12,795
Cut what?
- In all, it cost me 15,000.
139
00:14:12,995 --> 00:14:17,097
12,000, not a penny more.
Or he won't get a tombstone.
140
00:14:18,197 --> 00:14:21,298
We can't bury Jerome
without a tombstone.
141
00:14:23,699 --> 00:14:25,099
13,500 then.
142
00:14:25,300 --> 00:14:27,400
12,000, and I'll pay cash.
143
00:14:31,202 --> 00:14:33,202
OK, 12,000.
144
00:14:33,702 --> 00:14:35,703
I was fond of Jerome.
145
00:14:36,202 --> 00:14:37,803
OK.
146
00:14:43,205 --> 00:14:44,705
Come on, let's go.
147
00:15:22,918 --> 00:15:26,419
My first sexual experiencehappened at Blankenberg.
148
00:15:26,719 --> 00:15:28,719
It was with Eddy.
149
00:15:40,423 --> 00:15:42,325
Do you want more?
150
00:15:47,326 --> 00:15:50,327
Blankenberg is cheaper than Knokke.
151
00:15:50,927 --> 00:15:53,728
Come and see my films, Jan.
152
00:15:54,028 --> 00:15:56,629
You've got Laurel and Hardy?
- Of course.
153
00:16:04,632 --> 00:16:08,633
Always going inside.
With all this fresh air.
154
00:16:08,833 --> 00:16:10,833
Kids today
don't understand anything.
155
00:16:11,033 --> 00:16:12,935
They're too spoilt,
they've got everything.
156
00:16:13,234 --> 00:16:14,935
They didn't live through the war.
157
00:16:19,737 --> 00:16:21,337
Do you want more?
158
00:16:34,641 --> 00:16:37,942
Suddenly,Eddy put his hand on my knee,
159
00:16:39,343 --> 00:16:41,844
then my buttock,
160
00:16:43,044 --> 00:16:45,245
and he grabbed my willy.
161
00:16:47,245 --> 00:16:49,446
It started to get hard,
162
00:16:50,046 --> 00:16:52,247
I quite liked it.
163
00:16:53,347 --> 00:16:56,548
Eddy wasn't a girl,
164
00:16:58,650 --> 00:17:01,350
but when he putmy hand in his pants,
165
00:17:01,550 --> 00:17:03,351
I was sure.
166
00:17:07,252 --> 00:17:10,553
Suddenly, a white liquidspurted out of my hands,
167
00:17:13,354 --> 00:17:15,454
and then I came.
168
00:17:23,657 --> 00:17:25,258
One?
169
00:17:25,858 --> 00:17:29,659
I needed to comparemy experience with Eddy.
170
00:17:29,859 --> 00:17:31,360
Two.
171
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,261
Here you are.
Thank you.
172
00:17:46,165 --> 00:17:49,265
Take your places,for the next ride.
173
00:18:13,573 --> 00:18:17,775
She's easy,
she kisses all the boys.
174
00:18:17,975 --> 00:18:19,775
I know.
175
00:18:39,582 --> 00:18:42,883
At school there wasthe most beautiful girl in the world.
176
00:18:45,084 --> 00:18:48,385
They say she came to school one daywith dirty knickers.
177
00:18:48,585 --> 00:18:50,985
Everyone called her "Dirty knickers".
178
00:18:51,786 --> 00:18:55,287
I didn't care, I loved her.
179
00:18:55,787 --> 00:18:57,588
But I didn't tell her.
180
00:19:03,090 --> 00:19:06,190
One afternoon,the first warm winds from the Azores
181
00:19:06,390 --> 00:19:08,192
blew over Harelbeek.
182
00:19:08,392 --> 00:19:10,892
Ginger Leonpulled her knickers off.
183
00:19:29,898 --> 00:19:32,599
Here you are.
- My name's Christine.
184
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:37,201
Bucquoy loves Dirty Knickers.
185
00:19:42,003 --> 00:19:46,304
Everyone at school
says we're engaged.
186
00:19:46,904 --> 00:19:48,704
Well, if that's what they say.
187
00:19:48,905 --> 00:19:51,306
They call me Christine now.
188
00:19:52,306 --> 00:19:55,406
I never had dirty knickers.
189
00:19:55,607 --> 00:19:59,708
Ginger made it up, because
I didn't want to be his girlfriend.
190
00:19:59,908 --> 00:20:01,308
Wait.
191
00:20:08,811 --> 00:20:10,312
Look.
192
00:20:10,812 --> 00:20:14,112
It's true they're not dirty.
- They're for you.
193
00:20:14,413 --> 00:20:15,914
Thanks.
194
00:20:18,114 --> 00:20:19,715
Look.
195
00:20:29,718 --> 00:20:32,519
I've never shown anyone before.
196
00:20:42,322 --> 00:20:44,923
We'll stay together for ever.
197
00:20:48,824 --> 00:20:51,425
How are you?
- Alright.
198
00:20:51,625 --> 00:20:54,426
I brought you a book.
- That's kind of you.
199
00:20:54,626 --> 00:20:58,228
Do you like it?
- It's not really my sort of book.
200
00:20:58,427 --> 00:20:59,928
You know what?
201
00:21:00,128 --> 00:21:03,529
My family's taking me
to the Belgian Congo.
202
00:21:03,729 --> 00:21:04,729
When?
203
00:21:05,030 --> 00:21:06,830
In three days' time.
204
00:21:07,330 --> 00:21:09,531
But we're not supposed to part?
205
00:21:09,731 --> 00:21:12,932
When I get back,
we'll get married.
206
00:21:14,032 --> 00:21:16,233
I will have a houseboy,
207
00:21:16,433 --> 00:21:20,034
and monkeys, giraffes
and even elephants in the garden.
208
00:21:20,335 --> 00:21:23,235
When will you come back?
- I've a lot to do.
209
00:21:23,936 --> 00:21:28,137
I'm going.
Promise to come and say goodbye?
210
00:21:32,638 --> 00:21:34,639
Dirty knickers!
211
00:21:35,540 --> 00:21:37,440
Dirty knickers!
212
00:21:40,341 --> 00:21:41,941
For the holidays,
213
00:21:42,141 --> 00:21:45,142
we predicted the anticyclonecentred round the Isle of Wight
214
00:21:45,342 --> 00:21:49,244
would influence our region favourably.
215
00:21:51,745 --> 00:21:54,446
They forecast a dry and hot summer.
216
00:22:02,549 --> 00:22:04,249
I give up,
217
00:22:05,749 --> 00:22:07,950
you're too strong for me.
218
00:22:08,550 --> 00:22:11,151
Do you want
to watch Laurel and Hardy?
219
00:22:11,351 --> 00:22:13,852
No, I've seen them all.
220
00:22:16,752 --> 00:22:20,054
It's no better with girls,
if that's what you think.
221
00:22:20,253 --> 00:22:22,255
I'll see next summer.
222
00:22:46,162 --> 00:22:49,663
The following summer,they built on the campsite
223
00:22:49,863 --> 00:22:51,964
and I never saw Eddy again.
224
00:23:15,171 --> 00:23:17,373
I saw Dirty Knickersagain in May '68.
225
00:23:24,175 --> 00:23:26,776
It's been so long,
Dirty Knick... sorry,
226
00:23:27,476 --> 00:23:30,677
Christine.
- Nearly ten years.
227
00:23:31,677 --> 00:23:33,678
You haven't changed.
228
00:23:34,678 --> 00:23:37,479
You, yes. Well no, I mean...
229
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,580
Is it true I haven't changed?
230
00:23:48,983 --> 00:23:51,383
Remember Leon?
231
00:23:51,583 --> 00:23:54,284
Yes, Ginger.
232
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,000
The sun took its time to rise,
233
00:24:44,301 --> 00:24:47,601
and a cold wind from the Shetlandsrustled my face.
234
00:24:48,302 --> 00:24:50,503
Nothing wakes you upbetter than that.
235
00:25:13,410 --> 00:25:17,512
Now for the results:
Moretti, 6,5/20.
236
00:25:17,911 --> 00:25:20,612
Your notion of the ideal woman
is really out of time.
237
00:25:22,213 --> 00:25:24,814
Pirana, seven.
238
00:25:25,214 --> 00:25:27,414
A true lump of meat.
239
00:25:27,715 --> 00:25:30,316
You'll always be a butcher's son.
240
00:25:30,916 --> 00:25:35,017
Brusselmans, desperate five.
I wonder what you've learnt.
241
00:25:37,118 --> 00:25:39,619
Mia, 16.
242
00:25:39,919 --> 00:25:41,619
A slight tedious, but not bad.
243
00:25:41,819 --> 00:25:45,421
You've already the questions,
the answers will follow soon.
244
00:25:47,822 --> 00:25:49,422
Bucquoy,
245
00:25:55,724 --> 00:25:57,425
19.
246
00:25:59,125 --> 00:26:00,926
Very good.
247
00:26:03,327 --> 00:26:05,827
Come and see me after class.
248
00:26:11,129 --> 00:26:12,929
When I passed my exams,
249
00:26:13,129 --> 00:26:15,731
I wanted to continuestudying in Brussels.
250
00:26:49,042 --> 00:26:52,443
You'll start in the offices
at Lano tomorrow.
251
00:26:52,742 --> 00:26:54,943
Everything's arranged.
- But...
252
00:26:55,143 --> 00:26:59,845
It's a good job at Lano.
Your father never suffered there.
253
00:27:00,045 --> 00:27:01,546
But no...
254
00:27:35,757 --> 00:27:38,758
On Saturdays, we went outwith Pirana and Moretti.
255
00:27:53,662 --> 00:27:55,863
It was Mia's birthday,
256
00:27:56,063 --> 00:27:59,065
the school swot type, a bit shy,
257
00:27:59,264 --> 00:28:01,465
stiff, badly dressed.
258
00:28:07,067 --> 00:28:11,568
She was in love with Piranabut he had other ideas.
259
00:28:21,172 --> 00:28:22,972
You're not dancing?
260
00:28:25,573 --> 00:28:29,074
Why?
- I don't like the music.
261
00:28:29,274 --> 00:28:31,575
What turns you up?
262
00:28:31,875 --> 00:28:35,776
Jazz, bebop, Miles Davis...
263
00:28:36,076 --> 00:28:38,477
Oh, niggers' music!
264
00:28:48,380 --> 00:28:52,482
You don't seem to like girls.
You're not gay by any chance?
265
00:28:53,382 --> 00:28:55,983
If they're all like you,
it's no wonder, isn't it?
266
00:28:56,283 --> 00:28:57,983
Charming.
267
00:29:03,185 --> 00:29:06,386
You know your mum
still has credit at the butcher's?
268
00:29:11,588 --> 00:29:13,388
Bye.
269
00:29:32,495 --> 00:29:35,195
If you're bored,
why don't you scram?
270
00:29:35,395 --> 00:29:38,596
I'm waiting for Pirana.
- Me too.
271
00:29:40,497 --> 00:29:43,098
You haven't done with it!
272
00:29:43,398 --> 00:29:45,698
Pirana likes girls
with big tits not like yours...
273
00:29:45,899 --> 00:29:47,500
Bastard!
274
00:29:48,900 --> 00:29:51,500
I'm sorry.
275
00:29:51,901 --> 00:29:54,302
Come on, we'll wipe it off.
- OK.
276
00:29:54,502 --> 00:29:56,102
Come on.
- No, it's alright.
277
00:29:56,302 --> 00:29:59,003
It won't take a minute.
278
00:31:00,723 --> 00:31:01,723
My mother...
279
00:31:03,124 --> 00:31:04,725
Andre!
280
00:31:08,326 --> 00:31:11,126
God damn it!
You'll get it later.
281
00:31:11,327 --> 00:31:14,328
And you Bucquoy,
don't come here ever again!
282
00:31:14,527 --> 00:31:18,629
Get out of here,
dirty little bastard!
283
00:31:34,634 --> 00:31:37,835
Joyce, Miller, Camus, Steinbeck...
284
00:31:43,737 --> 00:31:46,438
You could become a writer...
285
00:31:46,638 --> 00:31:49,839
Who knows,
win a Pulitzer prize.
286
00:32:21,950 --> 00:32:24,050
You'll never be anything.
287
00:32:25,651 --> 00:32:27,652
You know nothing of life.
288
00:32:28,552 --> 00:32:31,153
Above all, you don't know
the value of money.
289
00:32:36,855 --> 00:32:39,356
Life is so expensive.
290
00:32:50,659 --> 00:32:53,960
It was summerwhen I arrived in Brussels.
291
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,162
A warm wind blew in from the Balearicsover Harelbeek
292
00:32:57,461 --> 00:32:59,262
caressing my face.
293
00:32:59,562 --> 00:33:01,463
I wandered around.
294
00:33:36,374 --> 00:33:38,775
What are you drinking?
295
00:33:40,476 --> 00:33:42,776
It's on the house.
296
00:33:43,576 --> 00:33:44,977
A Palm.
297
00:33:48,178 --> 00:33:50,378
You've a nice face, you know?
298
00:33:51,479 --> 00:33:53,679
My name's Greta.
299
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,681
Herman J. Claes, writer.
300
00:33:58,781 --> 00:34:01,382
Jan Bucquoy, from Harelbeek...
301
00:34:02,483 --> 00:34:04,583
I write too.
302
00:34:05,183 --> 00:34:06,984
What do you write?
303
00:34:12,185 --> 00:34:15,987
It's the story of two bulls.
One old, one young.
304
00:34:16,187 --> 00:34:18,588
They're climbing a hill,
and at the top,
305
00:34:18,788 --> 00:34:22,889
the young one notices
a field with thousands of cows.
306
00:34:23,089 --> 00:34:25,590
The young one, all excited,
says to the old one:
307
00:34:25,790 --> 00:34:28,391
"Let's run over and screw one. "
308
00:34:28,591 --> 00:34:32,092
Wait, wait...
The old one says:
309
00:34:32,292 --> 00:34:35,593
"Let's go slowly,
310
00:34:35,793 --> 00:34:37,894
and screw all of them. "
311
00:34:50,098 --> 00:34:51,898
Where will you sleep?
312
00:34:52,098 --> 00:34:54,399
I don't know, I've just arrived.
313
00:34:54,699 --> 00:34:56,600
I've a bedroom upstairs.
314
00:35:01,401 --> 00:35:03,002
You coming?
315
00:35:18,807 --> 00:35:21,708
The "Dolle Mol" wasthe cafe that initiated me.
316
00:35:22,209 --> 00:35:25,809
Greta taught me the kamasutra. It took a few months.
317
00:35:28,110 --> 00:35:32,412
Her friend, Esther, introduced meto the revolutionary theories.
318
00:35:34,512 --> 00:35:38,613
She was a hardline Marxist Leninistand libertarian activist.
319
00:35:39,114 --> 00:35:41,214
I liked Esther a lot.
320
00:35:41,415 --> 00:35:45,916
Children, Santa Claus
and Father Christmas don't exist.
321
00:35:46,116 --> 00:35:50,417
They are your parents
or any other adults in disguise
322
00:35:50,617 --> 00:35:53,419
who give you presents
if you're good.
323
00:35:53,619 --> 00:35:57,820
Accuse your parents
of pretending to be Father Christmas
324
00:35:58,020 --> 00:36:01,121
and they will admit it's true and
that they never stopped lying to you.
325
00:36:01,421 --> 00:36:04,022
"Support the Vietnamese People"
326
00:36:04,222 --> 00:36:08,123
I enrolled at the University in bothpolitical science and history of arts.
327
00:36:09,223 --> 00:36:10,924
But I didn't take exams.
328
00:36:13,325 --> 00:36:16,226
I was a memberof the revolutionary avant-garde.
329
00:36:16,426 --> 00:36:19,027
My job was to educatethe reactionary masses
330
00:36:19,327 --> 00:36:22,528
and whittle away atthe moral basis of the imperialist state.
331
00:36:24,029 --> 00:36:25,629
Politics, it's all humbug.
332
00:36:25,829 --> 00:36:29,330
You can study
thanks to workers' sweat.
333
00:36:37,433 --> 00:36:40,734
Understand, the Vietnam war,
334
00:36:40,934 --> 00:36:43,835
the exploitation of the third world
only profit the big capital.
335
00:36:44,036 --> 00:36:47,537
If we don't oppose them,
we become their objective allies, see?
336
00:36:47,736 --> 00:36:51,537
It's all Greek to me.
I don't give a damn about politics.
337
00:36:57,740 --> 00:37:00,241
"La Chinoise" is showing
at the Arenberg. Fancy going?
338
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:03,141
Yes, I would.
339
00:37:04,241 --> 00:37:07,542
As the bourgeoisie develops,
- i. e. The capital -
340
00:37:07,743 --> 00:37:10,744
so does the proletariat:
The modern working class,
341
00:37:10,943 --> 00:37:13,344
who only live if they find work
342
00:37:13,644 --> 00:37:17,146
and don't find any as soon as
the work stops feeding the capital.
343
00:37:19,146 --> 00:37:21,847
Workers, forcedto sell themselves every day
344
00:37:22,047 --> 00:37:24,749
are a merchandiselike any other commercial product.
345
00:37:24,949 --> 00:37:28,150
Consequently they suffer allthe vicissitudes of competition,
346
00:37:28,350 --> 00:37:30,550
all the ups and downs of the market.
347
00:37:30,751 --> 00:37:33,551
With machines,and the division of labour,
348
00:37:33,851 --> 00:37:37,152
the worker's labour is strippedof its individual characteristics
349
00:37:37,453 --> 00:37:41,154
and its usefulness. The capitalist...
350
00:37:49,156 --> 00:37:53,758
As a result,workers' wages are just enough
351
00:37:53,958 --> 00:37:57,159
to live and propagate their race.
352
00:37:57,459 --> 00:37:59,359
So, the more work becomes
353
00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:01,961
repugnantthe more salaries decline.
354
00:38:02,261 --> 00:38:04,461
Allow me to ask
your daughter's hand, Madam.
355
00:38:05,362 --> 00:38:07,562
Therese is too young.
356
00:38:09,863 --> 00:38:12,164
Allow me to insist.
357
00:38:13,264 --> 00:38:16,765
There's nothing to insist.
She's too young.
358
00:38:17,466 --> 00:38:20,166
Mother...
- Shut up!
359
00:38:20,466 --> 00:38:22,867
You could have found better than that.
360
00:38:26,068 --> 00:38:28,069
She's pregnant.
361
00:38:30,070 --> 00:38:33,671
Get out!
Never come back here.
362
00:38:43,074 --> 00:38:46,875
I was ready to live openlymy petit bourgeois contradictions.
363
00:38:47,075 --> 00:38:50,076
But as Lenin said,
364
00:38:50,476 --> 00:38:52,977
"revolution is a daily practice".
365
00:39:07,081 --> 00:39:09,182
You want more?
- No.
366
00:39:25,487 --> 00:39:27,589
Marriage is expensive.
367
00:39:29,289 --> 00:39:31,190
You're still young.
368
00:39:35,691 --> 00:39:38,892
And you.
Have you thought long and hard?
369
00:39:39,092 --> 00:39:41,293
Mum, stop.
370
00:39:47,195 --> 00:39:50,295
Listen, it's me or your mother.
371
00:39:57,498 --> 00:39:59,899
We married on October 17.
372
00:40:13,403 --> 00:40:15,904
I forgot my wallet in Harelbeek.
373
00:40:16,705 --> 00:40:18,905
It doesn't matter, Mum. I'll pay.
374
00:40:27,708 --> 00:40:29,409
It lasted three years.
375
00:40:29,609 --> 00:40:33,110
Then came the first oil shock.
376
00:40:33,510 --> 00:40:36,411
Same as usual?
377
00:40:45,814 --> 00:40:49,815
Jan Bucquoy, choose.
Me or the Dolle Mol.
378
00:40:57,418 --> 00:41:00,518
And the need to feel good,
to totally control oneself,
379
00:41:00,819 --> 00:41:02,719
and in a suitable way,
380
00:41:03,019 --> 00:41:06,721
that all paves the way
to the most severe forbidding
381
00:41:06,921 --> 00:41:08,521
of the next stage,
382
00:41:08,721 --> 00:41:11,422
the forbidding of masturbating.
383
00:41:14,523 --> 00:41:17,724
Children's sexual inhibitionsform the basis
384
00:41:17,924 --> 00:41:22,626
of the fixation on the parentalenvironment: The family.
385
00:41:23,126 --> 00:41:25,327
It's at the basisof the lack of independence
386
00:41:25,627 --> 00:41:27,427
in thought and deed.
387
00:41:27,627 --> 00:41:32,129
I want to know the truth:
Where were you last night?
388
00:41:33,329 --> 00:41:36,330
You're not my mother,
I don't have to tell you.
389
00:41:42,232 --> 00:41:43,632
Naughty.
390
00:42:08,941 --> 00:42:11,441
Jan Bucquoy, I hate you!
391
00:42:20,345 --> 00:42:23,946
A breeze from Scandinavia,licked my face.
392
00:42:24,245 --> 00:42:25,946
Nothing better for meditating.
393
00:42:30,448 --> 00:42:33,049
I took an apartment in Anderlecht.
394
00:42:50,254 --> 00:42:53,755
Therese, it's me.
- You disgust me.
395
00:42:59,158 --> 00:43:02,058
He wanted to live together.
396
00:43:03,258 --> 00:43:05,659
I didn't feel ready.
397
00:43:06,459 --> 00:43:09,260
But he promised eternal love.
398
00:43:09,860 --> 00:43:11,862
He'd only love me.
399
00:43:13,461 --> 00:43:15,862
What a bastard.
400
00:43:17,763 --> 00:43:21,365
I got it all, the big game:
401
00:43:22,465 --> 00:43:25,966
Lies, infidelity.
402
00:43:28,566 --> 00:43:31,167
Always dragged in the shit.
403
00:43:32,368 --> 00:43:36,269
Monsieur was preparing
the permanent revolution.
404
00:43:38,370 --> 00:43:41,871
You know the type,
a century too late.
405
00:43:43,771 --> 00:43:48,274
The only work he did
was to try and write a book.
406
00:43:49,573 --> 00:43:51,675
A masterpiece.
407
00:43:54,175 --> 00:43:55,976
My foot!
408
00:43:59,377 --> 00:44:03,678
Monsieur didn't want
to be the watchdog of the bourgeoisie.
409
00:44:05,779 --> 00:44:07,679
What a joke.
410
00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:15,682
All he left me, was two kids.
411
00:44:17,983 --> 00:44:19,983
What a son of a bitch.
412
00:44:41,691 --> 00:44:45,092
Who are you with?Young and pretty?
413
00:44:45,292 --> 00:44:47,292
No, Therese, I'm alone.
414
00:44:47,492 --> 00:44:49,693
I warn you,you'll never see the kids again.
415
00:44:49,993 --> 00:44:53,094
I swear I'm alone.
It's the heater you can hear.
416
00:44:53,394 --> 00:44:55,895
It's that little slut you metworking on the porn mag.
417
00:44:56,195 --> 00:44:59,096
That so-called model. What happened to the romantic poet?
418
00:44:59,296 --> 00:45:02,697
Poet, my ass!Pornographer, yes!
419
00:45:07,599 --> 00:45:09,499
I can't live without,
420
00:45:10,100 --> 00:45:11,500
I can't live with.
421
00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:14,401
Without it, everything's wrong.
422
00:45:14,601 --> 00:45:18,502
No skin without head. No hot without dog.
423
00:45:19,303 --> 00:45:21,203
No woman, no love.
424
00:45:21,403 --> 00:45:24,404
It's hard with,but everything stops without.
425
00:45:25,604 --> 00:45:30,007
The heart beats slower,the neck stiffens without women.
426
00:45:30,406 --> 00:45:32,807
Legs would be paralyzed.
427
00:45:33,007 --> 00:45:35,909
Without a woman, we are blunted.
428
00:45:36,208 --> 00:45:38,509
Without a woman,we stay in the cupboard.
429
00:45:38,709 --> 00:45:40,809
It's hard with,impossible without.
430
00:45:55,715 --> 00:45:59,716
It's the story of a frog,
with a big, big mouth.
431
00:46:00,216 --> 00:46:02,217
She goes off
to discover the universe
432
00:46:02,417 --> 00:46:06,418
and suddenly meets a big beast
with large brown spots:
433
00:46:06,618 --> 00:46:09,519
"Good day. Who are you?
- I'm a cow. "
434
00:46:09,720 --> 00:46:12,120
"And what are you eating?
- I'm eating grass. "
435
00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:14,321
"That's interesting. "
436
00:46:14,620 --> 00:46:17,822
And she goes on...
and meets lots of animals...
437
00:46:18,021 --> 00:46:22,424
and then, flap, flap,
the flap of huge wings.
438
00:46:22,624 --> 00:46:25,624
A huge animal sits down
at the edge of a lake
439
00:46:25,825 --> 00:46:29,925
with a long beak and neck,
perched on one leg.
440
00:46:30,626 --> 00:46:33,527
"Good day. Who are you?"
441
00:46:33,827 --> 00:46:37,028
"I'm a heron and I eat frogs
442
00:46:37,228 --> 00:46:39,329
with big mouths... "
443
00:46:39,529 --> 00:46:42,030
"That's interesting. "
444
00:47:39,549 --> 00:47:42,850
Listen, Therese,
I'm with two great chicks.
445
00:47:43,050 --> 00:47:47,451
One is called Cathy,
the other I don't know.
446
00:47:48,251 --> 00:47:52,153
I'm making love to both of them.
It's great.
447
00:47:53,153 --> 00:47:56,253
Cathy's got her legs wide open,
448
00:47:56,454 --> 00:47:59,055
her fanny all wet,
449
00:47:59,355 --> 00:48:02,055
and she comes
sitting on my penis.
450
00:48:03,556 --> 00:48:06,457
And the other one
just sat on my mouth.
451
00:48:45,570 --> 00:48:47,471
Therese didn't call again.
452
00:48:54,373 --> 00:48:56,273
Look who it is. JB.
453
00:48:56,774 --> 00:48:58,674
Jan Bucquoy.
454
00:49:01,576 --> 00:49:04,276
Haven't seen you for ages.
455
00:49:08,277 --> 00:49:10,278
Come on, don't be shy.
456
00:49:34,986 --> 00:49:37,187
I liked Cecile a lot,
457
00:49:37,587 --> 00:49:41,688
but her new false teethhad torn my foreskin.
458
00:49:53,191 --> 00:49:56,593
What you doing there?
- None of your business.
459
00:50:23,102 --> 00:50:25,503
Is she nearly finished?
460
00:50:25,703 --> 00:50:28,703
Who?
- My mother.
461
00:50:29,204 --> 00:50:32,705
Who's your mother?
- Cecile.
462
00:50:35,205 --> 00:50:37,206
In my opinion, yes.
463
00:50:45,109 --> 00:50:48,410
I'm going then.
464
00:50:50,811 --> 00:50:52,811
Will you walk me home?
465
00:50:53,211 --> 00:50:55,512
How old are you?
466
00:50:56,712 --> 00:50:59,813
Don't worry.
I've got French letters.
467
00:51:00,013 --> 00:51:01,514
Good, let's go.
468
00:51:21,321 --> 00:51:24,621
You remind me of Sterling Hyden
469
00:51:24,822 --> 00:51:27,623
in "Johnny Guitar".
470
00:51:30,824 --> 00:51:34,525
What did he say to Joan Crawford?
471
00:51:38,426 --> 00:51:41,527
"How many men have you forgotten?"
472
00:51:42,528 --> 00:51:46,929
"How many women do you remember?"
473
00:52:06,635 --> 00:52:09,737
Shit, it's Tony's gang.
474
00:52:09,936 --> 00:52:13,437
They're after me.
About a leather jacket...
475
00:52:25,241 --> 00:52:28,642
Less proud now, eh?
Where is it?
476
00:52:28,942 --> 00:52:31,443
I don't know.
I know nothing about a leather jacket.
477
00:52:31,644 --> 00:52:33,544
What? A leather jacket?
478
00:53:16,358 --> 00:53:20,059
It could have been a love storylike in the movies.
479
00:53:20,659 --> 00:53:22,160
But, as Magritte said:
480
00:53:22,460 --> 00:53:23,860
"Art isn't life. "
481
00:53:24,060 --> 00:53:27,662
You know what?
482
00:53:27,862 --> 00:53:30,963
You don't know nothing.
Nothing at all.
483
00:53:31,763 --> 00:53:34,163
Wanker. Let's go.
484
00:53:45,167 --> 00:53:46,768
Can you change the music?
485
00:53:46,968 --> 00:53:48,869
Leave if you don't like it.
486
00:53:49,069 --> 00:53:52,270
Come on, don't start.
Looking for trouble?
487
00:53:52,470 --> 00:53:55,071
Calm down, Jan. That's enough.
488
00:53:55,270 --> 00:53:57,671
What's the matter? You want a fight?
489
00:53:58,172 --> 00:54:00,673
Watch it, mate.
490
00:54:00,873 --> 00:54:04,874
I'll do you right in.
491
00:54:11,276 --> 00:54:13,577
They weren't too expensive?
492
00:54:13,776 --> 00:54:17,578
Don't worry, Mum,
there was a sale at the florist.
493
00:54:28,582 --> 00:54:30,782
You coming again Sunday?
494
00:54:30,983 --> 00:54:33,683
I don't know. I'm very busy.
495
00:54:38,384 --> 00:54:39,985
You know,
496
00:54:40,885 --> 00:54:43,086
the flowers, you shouldn't have.
497
00:54:43,787 --> 00:54:45,987
Don't waste your money.
498
00:54:54,690 --> 00:54:58,291
It would be cheaper
to come back and live with me.
499
00:55:31,502 --> 00:55:33,203
Sure, I was angry.
500
00:55:35,603 --> 00:55:39,005
Angry that she never held mein her arms.
501
00:55:39,905 --> 00:55:43,806
In any case,I went for the most expensive.
502
00:56:10,315 --> 00:56:12,215
FOR SALE
503
00:56:14,716 --> 00:56:19,017
With the money from the house,I paid 8-years living allowances.
504
00:56:44,926 --> 00:56:47,226
See you next week.
505
00:57:26,039 --> 00:57:28,941
This is how
you make a Molotov cocktail:
506
00:57:29,140 --> 00:57:30,941
Take a glass bottle,
507
00:57:31,141 --> 00:57:34,142
fill it with an inflammable liquid,
508
00:57:34,342 --> 00:57:37,743
like petrol stolen from a car.
509
00:57:42,345 --> 00:57:44,946
You must add a drop of soap or oil
510
00:57:45,146 --> 00:57:47,746
to make the liquid greasy.
511
00:57:49,847 --> 00:57:53,248
You can also add
some nails, some gravel,
512
00:57:53,449 --> 00:57:55,949
to strengthen the impact.
513
00:58:00,650 --> 00:58:02,351
Then,
514
00:58:04,752 --> 00:58:06,452
mix it all up.
515
00:58:08,753 --> 00:58:12,855
Take a bit of cloth,
dipped in petrol
516
00:58:13,355 --> 00:58:17,756
which we'll fix to the bottle
with a piece of cork.
517
00:58:21,558 --> 00:58:25,659
Light the cloth
and throw the bottle at the target.
518
00:58:26,659 --> 00:58:31,060
When the bottle hits a hard surface,
it will explode.
519
00:58:33,262 --> 00:58:36,462
Is that clear? Any questions?
520
00:58:49,267 --> 00:58:52,567
And now, the nitroglycerine formula.
521
00:59:03,171 --> 00:59:07,372
When Franco died,I spat on his tomb in Madrid.
522
00:59:08,472 --> 00:59:11,873
In Stammheim,Ulrike, Andreas, Gudrun
523
00:59:12,073 --> 00:59:14,975
and Ingrid were murdered in their cell.
524
00:59:16,175 --> 00:59:18,476
I became a hardcore vegetarian.
525
00:59:19,977 --> 00:59:23,777
Oh yes, Jan Bucquoy,
what a mess, that bloke.
526
00:59:23,978 --> 00:59:25,779
It was unreal.
527
00:59:25,978 --> 00:59:28,979
I remember when I met him,
he was depressed...
528
00:59:29,180 --> 00:59:32,380
He was heavy, heavy...
He didn't stop, this, that.
529
00:59:32,581 --> 00:59:36,182
He'd just left his wife,
Therese, and it was bad.
530
00:59:36,382 --> 00:59:39,883
I just wanted to fuck.
That's all.
531
00:59:40,083 --> 00:59:43,384
He went on and on
about sexual freedom.
532
00:59:43,684 --> 00:59:47,385
But if I wanted to go
and party on my own, no way.
533
00:59:47,585 --> 00:59:51,587
He caused a scene,
shouted, the whole works!
534
00:59:51,786 --> 00:59:55,888
And then one day,
he left and went to Germany.
535
01:00:00,289 --> 01:00:02,190
I saw him a year later.
536
01:00:02,590 --> 01:00:05,891
He was much better.
537
01:00:06,091 --> 01:00:09,492
Less depressed, more sure of himself.
538
01:00:09,693 --> 01:00:11,593
He was alright.
539
01:00:12,093 --> 01:00:15,795
I think then we could
have got something together.
540
01:00:19,496 --> 01:00:21,697
But it was too late.
541
01:00:48,605 --> 01:00:51,706
I had become more sure
of myself with women.
542
01:00:57,108 --> 01:01:00,009
Hello.
I want to make love to you.
543
01:01:42,822 --> 01:01:45,524
You know why
I wanted to make love with you?
544
01:01:46,924 --> 01:01:51,326
I don't know.
My charm, my intelligence?
545
01:01:52,826 --> 01:01:54,227
No.
546
01:01:56,927 --> 01:01:59,228
My eyes, my body?
547
01:01:59,728 --> 01:02:01,229
No.
548
01:02:03,729 --> 01:02:08,131
Having savoured the artist,
you fell in love with the man.
549
01:02:10,232 --> 01:02:11,633
No.
550
01:02:17,834 --> 01:02:20,835
You realized immediately
I was the man of your life?
551
01:02:22,535 --> 01:02:26,137
No, you're the first man
I've met with no telly.
552
01:02:40,842 --> 01:02:44,043
To be loved for what I was
I bought a TV - a Grundig
553
01:02:44,243 --> 01:02:47,444
colour, with a big screen
and remote control.
554
01:02:48,644 --> 01:02:50,645
On credit, of course.
555
01:03:18,454 --> 01:03:21,055
Why do you like making love to me?
556
01:03:25,656 --> 01:03:29,157
Because you're the nicest man
I've ever met.
557
01:03:44,063 --> 01:03:46,763
"Everything Is Alright"
558
01:03:47,763 --> 01:03:49,464
I liked Daisy a lot.
559
01:03:49,764 --> 01:03:53,865
But one day she met a man,and they opened a snack bar together.
560
01:03:54,065 --> 01:03:57,166
And I started meat again.
- Closing time!
561
01:04:46,083 --> 01:04:47,783
I liked them all...
562
01:04:49,184 --> 01:04:50,884
Women...
563
01:04:52,084 --> 01:04:54,885
Fat ones, thin ones,
564
01:04:55,086 --> 01:04:57,486
small ones, tall ones,
565
01:04:58,487 --> 01:05:01,487
brunettes, black-haired,
566
01:05:01,687 --> 01:05:05,088
yellow ones, red ones,
blue ones,
567
01:05:06,189 --> 01:05:07,890
rainbows...
568
01:05:21,894 --> 01:05:25,395
Whales, tramways,
569
01:05:27,195 --> 01:05:30,497
seals, teddy bears,
570
01:05:33,498 --> 01:05:35,199
the killers...
571
01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:42,201
The Midnight Express.
572
01:05:42,400 --> 01:05:46,302
Apples, bloody marys,walkie-talkies,
573
01:05:46,502 --> 01:05:50,503
summer festivals,sofas, secrets, pears,
574
01:05:50,703 --> 01:05:53,905
untouchable long-necks,parasites,
575
01:05:54,104 --> 01:05:56,306
milk shakes. I forgot loads,
576
01:05:56,505 --> 01:05:57,806
cargoes...
577
01:05:58,406 --> 01:06:02,707
Mezzanines, the ones who camefrom the cold, I loved them all. Kisses,
578
01:06:02,908 --> 01:06:04,808
sleepwalkers... I found that...
579
01:06:05,008 --> 01:06:07,910
sorbets... nothing ismore beautiful than a woman.
580
01:06:10,510 --> 01:06:13,611
Then I met Melanie,through the small ads.
581
01:06:13,812 --> 01:06:17,912
"Independent and dynamic woman,likes sport, reading, cinema,
582
01:06:18,113 --> 01:06:22,014
Lacan, and men who wantsomething other than a mother or maid. "
583
01:06:27,716 --> 01:06:29,816
She said man wasa biological accident,
584
01:06:30,017 --> 01:06:32,817
a woman gone wrong,a moving foetus.
585
01:06:33,017 --> 01:06:35,518
That to be male was a handicap
586
01:06:35,718 --> 01:06:38,419
and manhood an illness.
587
01:06:38,619 --> 01:06:41,620
And that I was emotionally paralysed.
588
01:06:44,721 --> 01:06:48,222
Bar always full,
always in a good mood.
589
01:07:16,031 --> 01:07:20,433
Women had changed, and so had I.
590
01:07:24,534 --> 01:07:28,135
I got into art,pure art, in a big way.
591
01:07:35,737 --> 01:07:37,438
What are you reading?
592
01:07:38,338 --> 01:07:40,539
"The Immortal"
by Robbe-Grillet.
593
01:07:40,739 --> 01:07:43,040
Oh I know it. It's a bore.
594
01:07:54,644 --> 01:07:58,745
I heard it's over with Melanie?
- Yes, I got rid of her.
595
01:08:00,245 --> 01:08:03,447
I'm available too.
- And Sylvain?
596
01:08:03,647 --> 01:08:05,948
We had nothing to say to each other.
597
01:08:19,552 --> 01:08:22,053
What are you doing tonight?
598
01:08:22,253 --> 01:08:24,654
Why, you want a fuck?
599
01:08:40,659 --> 01:08:44,360
I'm not interested in men
who only think about fucking.
600
01:08:55,463 --> 01:08:57,864
Do you still have
your radio show?
601
01:09:04,067 --> 01:09:07,468
Yes, literature, novels...
And you?
602
01:09:08,067 --> 01:09:10,568
I write every night.
603
01:09:11,069 --> 01:09:13,770
Still that famous novel?
604
01:09:13,969 --> 01:09:16,370
Yes, I went back to it.
605
01:09:20,172 --> 01:09:22,673
Who have you invited
on your programme?
606
01:09:23,573 --> 01:09:25,374
What?
607
01:09:25,673 --> 01:09:28,074
Who did you invite
on your last programme?
608
01:09:29,274 --> 01:09:31,176
Pierre Mertens.
609
01:09:33,076 --> 01:09:35,176
Why do we write, Pierre Mertens?
610
01:09:35,377 --> 01:09:38,677
Like Michaux said,to get out of the chaos,
611
01:09:38,878 --> 01:09:41,679
to be loved like Genet,
612
01:09:42,078 --> 01:09:46,080
or as Nabokov said,to drive back the beast?
613
01:09:46,680 --> 01:09:49,982
Do you write to please women?
614
01:09:52,982 --> 01:09:57,484
I think of my female readers,
615
01:09:57,984 --> 01:10:01,285
but I also think
616
01:10:01,485 --> 01:10:04,686
of Kafka,
617
01:10:05,087 --> 01:10:09,888
who knew a book
should be like an axe
618
01:10:10,088 --> 01:10:12,689
to chop through
frozen sea in August.
619
01:10:12,889 --> 01:10:17,490
I also think of Borges
who dreamed there was one book
620
01:10:17,590 --> 01:10:19,391
that all writers shared,
621
01:10:19,591 --> 01:10:24,292
like one bread and wine
at the last supper.
622
01:10:24,493 --> 01:10:26,793
And others like Simone Weil,
623
01:10:26,994 --> 01:10:30,595
saying we need poetry
like we need bread,
624
01:10:30,795 --> 01:10:33,896
or Ingeborg Backman who retorted:
625
01:10:34,096 --> 01:10:38,097
"Yes, but a bread that grates,
and is sometimes between the teeth. "
626
01:10:39,597 --> 01:10:42,998
You never felt like writing
about homosexuality?
627
01:10:46,500 --> 01:10:48,401
No, because...
628
01:10:49,800 --> 01:10:52,201
Into the mike, please.
629
01:10:53,002 --> 01:10:56,203
Because every literary work
630
01:10:56,403 --> 01:10:58,804
is more or less autobiographical.
631
01:10:59,004 --> 01:11:03,905
Even "Madame Bovary", which
we all know is about the author,
632
01:11:04,105 --> 01:11:07,506
even Poe's short stories,
or Borges' fiction...
633
01:11:07,707 --> 01:11:11,708
If we read Flaubert's letters
or those of Kafka,
634
01:11:11,909 --> 01:11:15,310
they're all the letters of a writer.
635
01:11:16,310 --> 01:11:19,811
Pierre Mertens and Marlenemarried on July 21 at Knokke.
636
01:11:20,011 --> 01:11:23,412
The wedding was intimate,in the presence of the Brussels gentry.
637
01:11:24,512 --> 01:11:27,213
Pierre Mertens was giventhe Order of Leopold II,
638
01:11:27,413 --> 01:11:29,513
in front of a Court Guard.
639
01:11:40,017 --> 01:11:44,818
I've thought about it,
and I want to live with you.
640
01:11:47,620 --> 01:11:50,121
There's been a misunderstanding,
Melanie.
641
01:11:50,421 --> 01:11:55,022
You're a really nice girl,
rich, young, full of life,
642
01:11:55,222 --> 01:11:57,923
I'm just a nobody,
I'm not the man for you.
643
01:11:58,624 --> 01:12:01,124
That's for me to decide, no?
644
01:12:01,324 --> 01:12:03,825
You know, I'm polygamous,
645
01:12:04,025 --> 01:12:07,426
I live in bars,
I can't do housework,
646
01:12:07,626 --> 01:12:09,627
I've got no money,
647
01:12:10,227 --> 01:12:13,428
I'm not the bloke for you.
648
01:12:17,230 --> 01:12:18,930
Don't you love me?
649
01:12:19,330 --> 01:12:21,431
It's not that, but...
650
01:12:22,231 --> 01:12:24,531
I have to finish my book.
651
01:12:47,939 --> 01:12:50,840
Pirana, hi.
- Alright?
652
01:12:53,341 --> 01:12:57,043
What you doing here? On your own?
- You can see that.
653
01:12:57,442 --> 01:13:00,444
And you?
- Me too, I'm alone.
654
01:13:06,945 --> 01:13:10,046
Fancy a walk?
- Well, yes.
655
01:13:11,246 --> 01:13:15,248
I think it's stopped raining.
I can close the umbrella.
656
01:13:15,549 --> 01:13:18,649
Can I go with you?
- Of course.
657
01:13:18,849 --> 01:13:22,050
I'll follow you.
- OK. This way.
658
01:13:36,455 --> 01:13:37,956
It was Christmas.
659
01:13:38,155 --> 01:13:42,057
An icy wind fromBering rose over Harelbeek.
660
01:13:43,658 --> 01:13:45,958
She sat in front of me.
661
01:13:46,358 --> 01:13:49,859
Her half-open blouse disclosedher firm and pointed tits,
662
01:13:50,059 --> 01:13:54,261
- ivory-coloured -ready for my greedy mouth.
663
01:14:03,364 --> 01:14:05,865
She took offher white gloves first,
664
01:14:06,065 --> 01:14:08,866
and I watched her hungrily.
665
01:14:18,169 --> 01:14:20,669
Peter Benoit's requiem.
I like it.
666
01:14:21,570 --> 01:14:25,571
But Mozart's is the best of all.
667
01:14:26,271 --> 01:14:29,872
His spirit is close to
the Christian concept of death.
668
01:14:30,073 --> 01:14:33,874
I know nothing
about classical music.
669
01:14:34,774 --> 01:14:36,774
It's people who interest me.
670
01:14:37,775 --> 01:14:41,276
I want to live in an equal world,
where we can all be happy.
671
01:14:41,476 --> 01:14:45,877
Mozart spoke of that too.
He wrote to his father:
672
01:14:46,077 --> 01:14:49,979
"Death is man's true happiness"
673
01:14:50,380 --> 01:14:54,480
and he thanked God for
enabling him to recognize death
674
01:14:54,681 --> 01:14:57,382
as the key to our beatitude.
675
01:14:57,581 --> 01:15:01,282
God doesn't exist
and Mozart worked for the elite,
676
01:15:02,283 --> 01:15:05,484
whilst most people
have to earn a living,
677
01:15:05,685 --> 01:15:08,285
with stupid, inhumane work.
678
01:15:08,485 --> 01:15:10,986
Men are exploited as merchandise.
679
01:15:11,186 --> 01:15:13,986
You have to contest that.
Mozart didn't.
680
01:15:19,788 --> 01:15:22,289
I'm writing a book.
681
01:15:22,990 --> 01:15:26,291
To earn my living,
I write for porn mags.
682
01:15:28,492 --> 01:15:31,193
No, the book I want to write is...
683
01:15:31,393 --> 01:15:33,493
Sex.
684
01:15:35,994 --> 01:15:39,395
No... sex, reality,
feelings, day to day things...
685
01:15:39,596 --> 01:15:42,596
Mozart talked about that too
when he spoke of death.
686
01:15:42,796 --> 01:15:45,398
Yes, but I'm interested in life.
687
01:15:53,100 --> 01:15:55,200
I'm finishing my book.
688
01:15:56,001 --> 01:16:00,202
It's nice to finish and start love.
689
01:16:01,803 --> 01:16:03,303
Yeah.
690
01:16:11,006 --> 01:16:12,506
It was Christmas.
691
01:16:12,706 --> 01:16:16,708
An icy wind from the Bering straitsblew over Harelbeek.
692
01:16:18,808 --> 01:16:21,409
She sat in front of me.
693
01:16:22,710 --> 01:16:24,610
I was cold.
694
01:16:28,911 --> 01:16:31,012
She took me in her arms
695
01:16:32,213 --> 01:16:34,613
and squeezed me hard.
696
01:16:35,013 --> 01:16:39,615
Her half-open blouse disclosedher firm, pointed, ivory tits.
697
01:16:41,215 --> 01:16:44,216
Ready for my greedy mouth.
698
01:16:51,519 --> 01:16:53,619
I liked her tits a lot.
699
01:17:56,040 --> 01:18:01,441
