1
00:00:38,885 --> 00:00:41,110
Translation: ditch
2
00:00:42,500 --> 00:00:46,708
The great dust cloud of Asia
covers the past...
3
00:00:46,934 --> 00:00:49,042
and conceals the future.
4
00:01:28,333 --> 00:01:32,500
Well, now we know, huh?
Every civilization is mortal.
5
00:01:32,625 --> 00:01:35,291
Even movies.
-Definitely this movie.
6
00:01:35,851 --> 00:01:38,685
But there's free drinks at the party afterwards.
7
00:01:58,483 --> 00:02:00,958
You were great in Bonjour Tristesse.
8
00:02:01,084 --> 00:02:02,884
What an oppressive game.
9
00:02:05,541 --> 00:02:09,166
Don't say anything, you're a director.
10
00:02:09,291 --> 00:02:11,208
Yeah, well, I mean...
11
00:02:11,333 --> 00:02:13,041
Good evening...
12
00:02:15,291 --> 00:02:17,375
Your movie is horrible.
13
00:02:17,500 --> 00:02:19,900
Wait, don't spoil the fun.
14
00:02:20,025 --> 00:02:23,092
I just want to read your review
when it comes out.
15
00:02:24,225 --> 00:02:29,625
La Passe du Diable is not so much
far from good, but rather almost bad.
16
00:02:31,041 --> 00:02:32,875
You're my favorite critic.
17
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:37,333
But you only learn to review properly
by making a film yourself.
18
00:02:37,458 --> 00:02:39,058
Here we go...
19
00:02:39,291 --> 00:02:42,291
Beau-Beau, I'm ready
to make a movie.
20
00:02:42,791 --> 00:02:46,791
You were allowed to write Pecheur d'Islande,
but you don't do that.
21
00:02:46,916 --> 00:02:50,651
Because I'm not directing it.
I don't understand the story.
22
00:02:50,777 --> 00:02:52,777
It's an edit.
-Precisely.
23
00:02:52,903 --> 00:02:55,120
I want to direct. Now.
24
00:02:55,375 --> 00:02:58,333
M. De Beauregard, your film is beautiful.
25
00:02:58,458 --> 00:03:00,808
Spectacular landscapes.
-Thank you.
26
00:03:00,933 --> 00:03:04,000
A wonderful film.
Even better than Ramuntcho.
27
00:03:04,541 --> 00:03:06,341
See you later...
28
00:03:10,700 --> 00:03:14,367
I never get that kind of attention.
-You are a big star.
29
00:03:14,500 --> 00:03:16,266
We respect you too much.
30
00:03:16,791 --> 00:03:18,991
The middle one is Truffaut.
31
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,801
And of course Chabrol sits to his left.
32
00:03:23,208 --> 00:03:26,825
And the one with the dark glasses is Jean Luc.
33
00:03:28,275 --> 00:03:29,675
Godard.
34
00:03:31,208 --> 00:03:32,750
He is the true genius.
35
00:03:34,166 --> 00:03:36,250
At least that's what he says.
36
00:03:36,775 --> 00:03:39,666
Cannes is not ready for a takeover.
37
00:03:39,791 --> 00:03:42,900
Your film makes them change their minds.
38
00:03:43,125 --> 00:03:45,916
They're going to see real modern French cinema.
39
00:03:46,041 --> 00:03:48,391
What? He curses my movie.
40
00:03:48,516 --> 00:03:51,458
Not so superstitious.
-They're going to hate him.
41
00:03:51,583 --> 00:03:54,541
The worst movie of the year.
-Which never comes true.
42
00:03:54,666 --> 00:03:55,916
A certain flop.
43
00:03:56,041 --> 00:03:58,125
It's not Citizen Kane.
-Certainly not.
44
00:03:58,250 --> 00:04:01,708
Find these guys
a young director is never good.
45
00:04:02,326 --> 00:04:03,609
Your wife.
46
00:04:06,333 --> 00:04:07,733
Excuse me.
47
00:04:11,301 --> 00:04:14,635
Rossellini was best man at their wedding.
-Nice couple.
48
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:16,360
Everthing okay?
-Yes, thank you.
49
00:04:17,458 --> 00:04:18,858
Vicky.
-Good evening.
50
00:04:21,875 --> 00:04:24,208
… having lunch together.
-Excuse me.
51
00:04:24,333 --> 00:04:27,589
Claude Chabrol, right?
Sorry, I just wanted to...
52
00:04:27,714 --> 00:04:30,126
say: Le Beau Serge is beautiful.
53
00:04:30,958 --> 00:04:35,350
Thank you, I'm flattered
and admire you very much.
54
00:04:45,383 --> 00:04:48,850
When I told my parents
that I wanted to make films,
55
00:04:48,975 --> 00:04:53,625
I said "I'm going to be a composer".
someone who has never heard music.
56
00:04:53,750 --> 00:04:57,584
This is unknown territory for them,
but I have to direct.
57
00:04:58,941 --> 00:05:00,341
It's too late.
58
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,250
It's never too late.
Comes time, comes advice.
59
00:05:04,375 --> 00:05:09,775
I wanted to make a film before I was 25.
“Missed the wave” is a beautiful epitaph.
60
00:05:09,900 --> 00:05:12,500
You did that.
-A short film.
61
00:05:12,700 --> 00:05:14,716
That you directed.
62
00:05:15,583 --> 00:05:18,666
That doesn't count.
A short film is anti-film.
63
00:05:19,250 --> 00:05:20,666
Face it.
64
00:05:20,791 --> 00:05:23,780
I am the last of Cahiers.
Rivet, yes;
65
00:05:24,405 --> 00:05:26,685
Rohmer, yes; Chabrol, twice yes.
66
00:05:26,810 --> 00:05:31,901
Truffaut, yes. Rohmer even wrote
a novel and Truffaut is a year younger.
67
00:05:33,034 --> 00:05:34,743
But Godard, no.
68
00:05:36,225 --> 00:05:39,075
How long does it take
before you have the courage?
69
00:05:40,359 --> 00:05:42,426
Act or shut up, buddy.
70
00:06:08,125 --> 00:06:11,458
Les 400 coups becomes
a typical French film.
71
00:06:11,958 --> 00:06:14,416
High pace. Artistic.
72
00:06:14,541 --> 00:06:17,333
Innovative. Cinematic.
73
00:06:17,458 --> 00:06:22,708
Original. Cheeky. Serious. Tragic.
74
00:06:23,208 --> 00:06:25,833
Wild. Ubu-roi.
75
00:06:26,375 --> 00:06:29,041
Spectacular. Friendly.
76
00:06:29,166 --> 00:06:31,375
Universal. Tender.
77
00:06:31,500 --> 00:06:34,150
Why aren't we in Cannes
at the premiere?
78
00:06:34,375 --> 00:06:37,291
Absurd, everyone is there, everyone.
79
00:06:37,875 --> 00:06:39,891
Not me.
-Me neither.
80
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,141
And what am I doing here?
81
00:06:45,333 --> 00:06:46,791
Huh, Grand Momo?
82
00:06:47,375 --> 00:06:50,634
Go ahead.
-I like François' film.
83
00:06:51,125 --> 00:06:54,375
Me, too.
Next time, I'll be in a week.
84
00:06:54,875 --> 00:06:58,833
I want to catch 400 bullets
to see the Cannes premiere.
85
00:06:58,959 --> 00:07:01,426
Go ahead, but leave us alone.
86
00:07:36,166 --> 00:07:37,566
Good...
87
00:07:38,458 --> 00:07:40,058
I'm going there.
88
00:08:47,808 --> 00:08:49,408
It went well.
89
00:08:52,433 --> 00:08:54,875
Congratulations, François.
And remember:
90
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,125
art is not a hobby,
it is a calling.
91
00:08:58,450 --> 00:09:01,733
Thank you very much.
I'm touched that you're here.
92
00:09:19,083 --> 00:09:22,375
A 28-year-old director:
François Truffaut.
93
00:09:22,500 --> 00:09:25,250
A 14-year-old star: Jean-Pierre Léaud.
94
00:09:25,375 --> 00:09:28,791
Great success in Cannes: Les 400 Coups.
95
00:09:30,041 --> 00:09:32,041
As Chabrol said last night:
96
00:09:32,541 --> 00:09:36,633
not bad for a dropout,
runaway and deserter.
97
00:09:37,958 --> 00:09:41,541
I spoke to Braunberger
about your script, Odile.
98
00:09:42,284 --> 00:09:46,684
He said it was 250 pages.
-And that it was unfilmable.
99
00:09:46,900 --> 00:09:50,525
What is unfilmable?
Everything is filmable, absolutely everything.
100
00:09:50,841 --> 00:09:53,291
He probably means unproducible.
101
00:09:57,166 --> 00:09:59,666
And what about Prenatal?
102
00:10:00,500 --> 00:10:04,700
I want to call it Une femme est un femme
and partly making musical.
103
00:10:04,825 --> 00:10:08,183
Which part?
-Less than half.
104
00:10:08,391 --> 00:10:12,916
Truffaut's scenario is better:
woman-falls-in-love-with-cop-killer.
105
00:10:13,041 --> 00:10:14,900
The one from the newspaper?
106
00:10:15,125 --> 00:10:18,450
Michel Portail?
That's just a rascal.
107
00:10:18,599 --> 00:10:21,883
It's yours and Truffaut together.
Perfect.
108
00:10:22,250 --> 00:10:25,958
But I want you
Show Prenatal.
109
00:10:26,583 --> 00:10:30,791
Do you want a chance? Leave Ignace
Morgenstern Prénatal just do it.
110
00:10:30,916 --> 00:10:34,717
I'll leave you alone
directing Truffaut's screenplay.
111
00:10:47,625 --> 00:10:51,041
I secretly hoped
that you would choose it.
112
00:10:52,150 --> 00:10:54,875
We really do this for a pittance.
113
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,650
I don't even have that either.
114
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,067
But with names like Truffaut, Chabrol…
-Claude too?
115
00:11:01,192 --> 00:11:05,217
I have it as technical
or artistic director wanted…
116
00:11:05,342 --> 00:11:09,550
To satisfy the union.
-Truffaut, Chabrol...
117
00:11:09,833 --> 00:11:11,233
and me.
118
00:11:12,166 --> 00:11:16,416
If they want Le Nouvelle Vague,
then they can get it.
119
00:11:16,541 --> 00:11:20,958
Exactly, that's how I hear it.
Everyone loves Le Nouvelle Vague.
120
00:11:21,083 --> 00:11:26,908
With subsidies and more from Pignères…
And I convinced Gérard Beytout.
121
00:11:27,333 --> 00:11:31,500
Even then it's only a third of that
the budget of an average film.
122
00:11:31,625 --> 00:11:33,208
It's more than enough.
123
00:11:33,333 --> 00:11:37,041
But please,
don't ever call me average again.
124
00:11:37,166 --> 00:11:41,458
Never again.
-At Cahiers, films should not be expensive.
125
00:11:41,583 --> 00:11:45,500
I've always liked notebooks.
-This is how you create creativity.
126
00:11:45,625 --> 00:11:47,250
I don't like that as much.
127
00:11:47,833 --> 00:11:54,100
Look, in this notebook I have 10 years
wrote down all my ideas about film.
128
00:11:54,500 --> 00:11:59,133
Now it's time to put these ideas to use
into clear images.
129
00:11:59,458 --> 00:12:03,458
For a movie you only have
need a woman and a gun.
130
00:12:03,583 --> 00:12:04,737
I'm counting on that.
131
00:12:04,862 --> 00:12:07,875
A fixed script closes
the unexpected.
132
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:12,300
We can explore that now.
-The audience wants a story.
133
00:12:12,425 --> 00:12:17,500
The majority of the paying public.
-But how many times can they choose...
134
00:12:17,625 --> 00:12:20,766
between poetry and story,
that paying audience?
135
00:12:22,291 --> 00:12:27,516
Why am I getting involved with a movie freak.
Either I'm crazy or a genius.
136
00:12:36,566 --> 00:12:38,641
We'll never get Jean Seberg.
137
00:12:44,166 --> 00:12:46,166
You are welcome to ask questions.
138
00:13:00,333 --> 00:13:01,733
Lucien?
139
00:13:01,858 --> 00:13:05,658
What? Not a good name?
-Yes, but why change?
140
00:13:05,783 --> 00:13:09,750
You're right
It was Michel, it remains Michel.
141
00:13:10,416 --> 00:13:13,650
But instead of Portail, Poiccard.
142
00:13:13,975 --> 00:13:16,391
Poiccard? Yes, why not.
143
00:13:43,875 --> 00:13:46,275
And?
-It's okay.
144
00:13:46,500 --> 00:13:49,500
Not great?
-That can't be a concept.
145
00:13:49,625 --> 00:13:52,026
These are great ideas. It's progressing.
146
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,480
I have to shoot that movie in Panama.
I know that well.
147
00:13:57,610 --> 00:14:02,025
The infamous lost years of Jean-Luc.
Also an interesting film.
148
00:14:02,250 --> 00:14:03,850
Maybe the next one.
149
00:14:04,743 --> 00:14:07,443
Look, Liliane David.
-What a surprise.
150
00:14:10,041 --> 00:14:12,133
Do you write here?
151
00:14:12,658 --> 00:14:17,116
Yes, for years.
It says here: first version, December 1956.
152
00:14:17,541 --> 00:14:20,958
“We're going to talk about bad things.”
Stendhal.
153
00:14:21,083 --> 00:14:22,908
That doesn't surprise me.
154
00:14:25,591 --> 00:14:28,858
Do you have a role for me?
-Certainly not.
155
00:14:30,559 --> 00:14:34,159
Film your feeling. Make a great movie.
With my name.
156
00:14:34,291 --> 00:14:37,525
But it's my movie.
-It's your faults.
157
00:15:01,916 --> 00:15:04,116
You need to work on your footwork.
158
00:15:07,100 --> 00:15:09,570
You're in luck
that you are wearing glasses.
159
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:18,775
Your character, Michel, dies
or seduces the girl.
160
00:15:19,766 --> 00:15:21,400
I can do both.
161
00:15:28,125 --> 00:15:33,416
Are you going to film like Charlotte et son Jules?
-But this time with your voice.
162
00:15:33,541 --> 00:15:36,850
Why?
You were doing great without me.
163
00:15:36,975 --> 00:15:42,250
I did what I could.
Your shift in Algeria is over, right?
164
00:15:43,133 --> 00:15:45,933
Then you can dub yourself.
165
00:15:47,451 --> 00:15:51,067
When I do the movie.
It's not a short film, is it?
166
00:16:23,220 --> 00:16:28,020
Roberto Rossellini, father of
Le Nouvelle Vague. We are your children.
167
00:16:28,145 --> 00:16:30,257
At Cahiers du Cinéma
are you among us.
168
00:16:30,382 --> 00:16:32,525
Welcome, Roberto.
-Thank you.
169
00:16:40,958 --> 00:16:44,125
Thanks, friends,
circle of cinematographers.
170
00:16:45,541 --> 00:16:47,225
Dear insurgents,
171
00:16:48,208 --> 00:16:51,833
I always try to create a movement,
172
00:16:52,058 --> 00:16:56,258
but I haven't succeeded yet,
because you...
173
00:16:56,558 --> 00:16:59,416
need a fixed shape.
174
00:17:00,541 --> 00:17:04,408
But once we have a solid shape,
we castrate ourselves.
175
00:17:05,208 --> 00:17:07,050
Film is about morality.
176
00:17:07,250 --> 00:17:10,375
There is no technology around it
to capture reality.
177
00:17:10,500 --> 00:17:13,708
You can do that alone
achieve with moral discipline.
178
00:17:13,833 --> 00:17:17,200
The camera is a pen, but a stupid one...
179
00:17:17,625 --> 00:17:19,692
when you have nothing to say.
180
00:17:20,416 --> 00:17:22,875
Simple filming is best.
181
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:27,208
True art distrusts
artistic effects like the plague.
182
00:17:27,333 --> 00:17:32,166
True freedom is logical,
has no rules and customs.
183
00:17:32,291 --> 00:17:36,725
You are allowed to film alone
out of necessity and want.
184
00:17:39,291 --> 00:17:42,500
Don't think of film as something mystical.
185
00:17:44,041 --> 00:17:45,841
I see you.
186
00:17:50,025 --> 00:17:53,583
Thank you. On necessity and want.
-Thank you, see you soon.
187
00:17:53,708 --> 00:17:57,783
The trip to Italy has me
entranced, thank you.
188
00:17:58,291 --> 00:18:00,758
Goodbye.
-Thank you for your speech.
189
00:18:06,875 --> 00:18:10,808
Finally my dream comes true:
my first movie.
190
00:18:10,933 --> 00:18:13,941
Beauregard has given the green light.
-Cazzo.
191
00:18:14,208 --> 00:18:16,642
First day of shooting: end of the dream.
192
00:18:23,875 --> 00:18:27,808
Anyone can make films.
Film is just a means of expression.
193
00:18:27,933 --> 00:18:31,916
Forget sound, color, screen.
Disdain the traditional form.
194
00:18:32,065 --> 00:18:33,605
Where shall I drop you off?
195
00:18:33,735 --> 00:18:36,535
Turn left.
Remember: turn quickly.
196
00:18:36,666 --> 00:18:39,333
Stop filming
when inspiration fades.
197
00:18:39,558 --> 00:18:42,625
I'm not allowed in here.
-Then the next links.
198
00:18:42,850 --> 00:18:47,541
Use notes, not a script.
Find cheap logistics solutions.
199
00:18:47,666 --> 00:18:49,500
It's here, on the corner.
200
00:18:55,541 --> 00:18:58,808
Thanks, Roberto.
-Thanks for the ride, Jean-Luc.
201
00:19:06,308 --> 00:19:08,308
Can you lend me some money?
202
00:19:14,250 --> 00:19:16,266
This is the biggest mistake of your life.
203
00:19:16,391 --> 00:19:21,391
The biggest mistake of my life?
Are you sure? Do you promise?
204
00:19:21,791 --> 00:19:26,858
If so, then it suits me.
-Hopefully it never comes out.
205
00:19:26,983 --> 00:19:31,025
It will ruin your career.
-Then find me another movie.
206
00:19:31,250 --> 00:19:33,391
I know Godard is your friend.
207
00:19:34,316 --> 00:19:38,916
But it's suicide for your career.
-Not true, not very good.
208
00:19:39,041 --> 00:19:44,108
I can see that. Your contract covers
not even your holiday on the Riviera.
209
00:19:44,333 --> 00:19:48,483
A trip to the roulette in Monaco
pays for my vacation.
210
00:19:49,208 --> 00:19:54,208
For the last time: you can play a role
get in Julien Duvivier's film.
211
00:19:54,333 --> 00:19:58,308
Less work, more money.
And a film that people will see.
212
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,000
And I would be bored to death.
213
00:20:03,658 --> 00:20:06,350
I'm tired of you.
-Thank you.
214
00:20:08,041 --> 00:20:09,716
Don't make that face.
215
00:20:10,641 --> 00:20:12,325
It'll be fine.
216
00:20:23,125 --> 00:20:27,200
If you're always one step ahead,
you're never late.
217
00:20:27,625 --> 00:20:31,341
You see, you're the youngest
becomes an assistant director in France.
218
00:20:31,666 --> 00:20:33,066
Thank you.
219
00:20:36,583 --> 00:20:38,800
This is the film in short.
220
00:20:41,125 --> 00:20:43,208
Enough to be able to plan.
221
00:20:43,733 --> 00:20:46,850
When do you want to start?
-I already have all the sets.
222
00:20:46,975 --> 00:20:48,766
Here's the list.
-Great.
223
00:20:48,891 --> 00:20:52,908
And this is the list of cars.
-Okay.
224
00:20:53,319 --> 00:20:56,444
The great American
Michel steals at the beginning.
225
00:20:57,583 --> 00:21:00,983
Can you find it in Marseille?
-Naturally.
226
00:21:02,575 --> 00:21:03,575
Is that all?
227
00:21:08,825 --> 00:21:13,116
According to this script there are 58 scenes.
-Plus or minus ten.
228
00:21:13,541 --> 00:21:16,875
Everything can change.
-Everything except the money.
229
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:18,601
So the number of days.
230
00:21:19,833 --> 00:21:24,225
We only have 20 days to film,
regardless of the number of scenes.
231
00:21:24,350 --> 00:21:27,000
But that's enough. More than enough.
232
00:21:28,500 --> 00:21:30,700
Don't show it to anyone.
-This...
233
00:21:46,850 --> 00:21:49,600
Sir...
-Melville said I could come.
234
00:21:49,725 --> 00:21:51,241
What is your name?
235
00:21:52,816 --> 00:21:56,284
Sorry, no journalists.
-He invited me.
236
00:21:56,410 --> 00:21:58,144
And I'm not a journalist.
237
00:22:02,083 --> 00:22:03,875
I'm a director now.
238
00:22:04,100 --> 00:22:06,666
I didn't think you would come.
239
00:22:06,791 --> 00:22:08,750
Add another rail.
-Good.
240
00:22:08,875 --> 00:22:10,941
I want to take it all in.
241
00:22:11,166 --> 00:22:16,208
I have so many questions before I start shooting.
-But of course.
242
00:22:16,333 --> 00:22:20,875
A director must always be open,
always "traumatizable".
243
00:22:21,100 --> 00:22:25,708
His observation and psychic ability
should be as sharp as possible.
244
00:22:25,833 --> 00:22:29,500
Take Martial for the music.
Solal is sublime.
245
00:22:29,625 --> 00:22:31,859
I'll introduce him to you.
246
00:22:32,333 --> 00:22:35,400
We'll take the Buick
instead of the Cadillac.
247
00:22:36,375 --> 00:22:39,441
I can also introduce you to car thieves.
248
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,067
Specialists, the cream of the crop.
249
00:22:44,375 --> 00:22:45,775
This.
250
00:22:46,625 --> 00:22:50,691
Keep your story simple.
Leave out subplots.
251
00:22:50,916 --> 00:22:53,875
Even the one with you?
-Not that one, of course.
252
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,416
Make your story poetic.
253
00:22:57,125 --> 00:23:01,158
And feel free to ignore what I say.
That's what advice is for.
254
00:23:01,583 --> 00:23:04,583
Excuse me, I'll be right back.
255
00:23:05,083 --> 00:23:10,208
The shot, when everyone is looking at you,
will be hell.
256
00:23:10,858 --> 00:23:14,058
You and you on the other side.
You, with me.
257
00:23:27,833 --> 00:23:31,708
Jean Seberg has just arrived.
She gets out of her car...
258
00:23:31,833 --> 00:23:35,125
Mme Seberg, what do you expect from Paris?
259
00:23:35,250 --> 00:23:38,350
Are you comfortable?
-What do you expect from Paris?
260
00:23:39,275 --> 00:23:43,508
Money, sports cars, diamonds.
261
00:23:45,833 --> 00:23:50,291
No, seriously.
A quiet, creative time,
262
00:23:50,416 --> 00:23:52,016
with my husband...
263
00:23:52,500 --> 00:23:53,940
and my friends.
264
00:23:54,416 --> 00:23:58,000
Thank you.
-What will be your next film?
265
00:23:58,125 --> 00:24:00,125
One more photo...
266
00:24:00,250 --> 00:24:06,416
Happy birthday to you, Françoise...
267
00:24:23,708 --> 00:24:28,250
Do you consider yourself a movie star?
Or more like an actress?
268
00:24:29,691 --> 00:24:31,491
I believe that…
269
00:24:34,083 --> 00:24:37,375
I am living proof...
270
00:24:37,500 --> 00:24:42,916
that you can't become a movie star
without being an actress.
271
00:24:43,583 --> 00:24:45,583
What was your name again?
272
00:24:46,125 --> 00:24:49,125
G-O-D-A-R-D.
I should be on the list.
273
00:24:49,708 --> 00:24:53,242
Jean Seberg plays the leading role
in my next movie.
274
00:24:58,691 --> 00:25:00,516
Raymond, he belongs to me.
275
00:25:01,750 --> 00:25:04,350
Glad you could come.
Thanks, Raymond.
276
00:25:04,500 --> 00:25:09,777
Thanks for the invitation. That in there
my life has room for another Francois.
277
00:25:10,058 --> 00:25:13,266
Jean is eager to meet you.
-Has she seen my work?
278
00:25:13,391 --> 00:25:15,625
Have you ever made a film?
279
00:25:16,266 --> 00:25:21,875
Le Nouvelle Vague feels close.
Truffaut the screenplay, Chabrol advisor…
280
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,416
It's great for Jean.
-But what does she think?
281
00:25:25,641 --> 00:25:30,833
Otto Preminger is both
the most charming dinner guest...
282
00:25:30,958 --> 00:25:35,166
as the most sadistic director
in the world.
283
00:25:35,833 --> 00:25:40,666
That's not true.
He's only okay as a guest.
284
00:25:42,375 --> 00:25:44,042
I'm not Preminger.
285
00:25:44,433 --> 00:25:49,092
I don't do more than two takes per scene.
-They let you do that?
286
00:25:50,108 --> 00:25:53,738
The more you repeat something,
the more mechanical it becomes,
287
00:25:53,863 --> 00:25:56,433
the further the film
of life.
288
00:25:56,958 --> 00:25:59,482
The artist must remain independent.
289
00:25:59,607 --> 00:26:04,466
Like a painter can leave his canvas
to go for a drink.
290
00:26:04,625 --> 00:26:07,275
Or to gain inspiration.
291
00:26:08,900 --> 00:26:11,316
That sounds interesting.
292
00:26:11,527 --> 00:26:15,586
Very different
than what Herr Otto taught me.
293
00:26:16,041 --> 00:26:18,025
Not so different.
294
00:26:18,691 --> 00:26:23,291
A Bout Souffle becomes an extension
of your role in Bonjour Tristesse.
295
00:26:23,725 --> 00:26:27,941
What do you mean?
-Take the last shot of that movie.
296
00:26:28,166 --> 00:26:32,633
Pretend it's three years later
and just be yourself.
297
00:26:35,291 --> 00:26:38,291
I want your gestures on set.
298
00:26:38,425 --> 00:26:41,900
How to hold a cigarette
whether you do her.
299
00:26:44,166 --> 00:26:46,100
You've never seen that before.
300
00:26:46,225 --> 00:26:47,625
But everyone...
301
00:26:48,050 --> 00:26:49,550
dreams of that.
302
00:26:50,133 --> 00:26:52,875
A mythical place in Paris.
-I've been there.
303
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:55,958
I grew up
on a farm in Iowa.
304
00:26:56,083 --> 00:26:59,884
At the premiere of Saint Joan
sang Harry Belafonte...
305
00:27:00,009 --> 00:27:03,025
"My funny Valentine", there,
just for me.
306
00:27:04,250 --> 00:27:07,650
You played a saint in Saint Joan.
-"The" Holy One.
307
00:27:08,208 --> 00:27:13,442
And a sinner in Bonjour Tristesse.
In my film you are both.
308
00:27:14,458 --> 00:27:16,125
Very tempting.
309
00:27:17,666 --> 00:27:20,800
Like the big bad wolves
just leave me alone.
310
00:27:23,500 --> 00:27:27,975
Who are those wolves?
-Preminger sold Jean to Columbia.
311
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:30,000
Why sold?
312
00:27:30,416 --> 00:27:34,158
Don't worry,
I'll get Columbia to accept it.
313
00:27:34,583 --> 00:27:38,083
We offer them $15,000
or half of the film's profits.
314
00:27:38,666 --> 00:27:41,558
They take the money.
-15,000 dollars?
315
00:27:42,050 --> 00:27:43,817
She's definitely worth it.
316
00:28:14,916 --> 00:28:16,791
And?
-Well...
317
00:28:18,958 --> 00:28:21,916
He is neither Truffaut nor Chabrol.
318
00:28:22,041 --> 00:28:26,641
But better than with Preminger.
-Honestly with everyone.
319
00:28:41,016 --> 00:28:43,177
The fantastic cameraman
which I mean.
320
00:28:43,302 --> 00:28:46,791
Coutard, I don't want the
take the place of Latouche.
321
00:28:46,916 --> 00:28:49,250
That's not my way of working.
322
00:28:50,791 --> 00:28:52,916
Let's see if I'm your man.
323
00:28:53,041 --> 00:28:55,241
Have you used eclair cameflex?
324
00:28:55,858 --> 00:28:57,333
During the war.
325
00:28:57,458 --> 00:29:01,125
It's noisy and above all...
-Yes, no live sound.
326
00:29:01,250 --> 00:29:05,590
But it is also so light that you...
can do anything, even by hand.
327
00:29:06,008 --> 00:29:09,683
When a recording
is too planned and prepared,
328
00:29:09,808 --> 00:29:14,000
is simply executing it
of what we came up with.
329
00:29:14,125 --> 00:29:18,025
I want to start every day
without knowing what I'm going to film.
330
00:29:18,208 --> 00:29:20,783
I want to search.
-Like my reports.
331
00:29:21,260 --> 00:29:23,594
How do you film at night without light?
332
00:29:25,875 --> 00:29:28,791
I love Ilford.
-Just like everyone else.
333
00:29:29,271 --> 00:29:34,333
Such high sensitivity does not exist
for film. They are small roles.
334
00:29:34,458 --> 00:29:38,141
What's stopping us from them?
to stick together?
335
00:29:38,266 --> 00:29:40,008
Can that work?
336
00:29:40,416 --> 00:29:42,750
If it fits in the projector...
337
00:29:43,275 --> 00:29:44,942
Then we must try.
338
00:29:46,058 --> 00:29:50,833
And in terms of size?
-Normal range. 1:37 is arbitrary.
339
00:29:51,358 --> 00:29:52,558
I'm fine with that.
340
00:29:53,458 --> 00:29:54,916
Listen, Coutard.
341
00:29:55,666 --> 00:29:58,000
I want a cameraman who follows me.
342
00:29:59,900 --> 00:30:02,383
I ask, he turns.
343
00:30:05,333 --> 00:30:11,708
Why should I believe that you are capable
are unprepared to film,
344
00:30:11,833 --> 00:30:14,667
far from the set and without lights?
345
00:30:15,791 --> 00:30:19,478
Listen, Godard.
I grew up in poverty.
346
00:30:19,603 --> 00:30:23,992
That's why I joined the army.
That's where I learned photography.
347
00:30:24,625 --> 00:30:28,875
I made recordings in a split second,
on-the-fly, without light,
348
00:30:29,100 --> 00:30:32,300
on a completely different type of sets.
349
00:30:34,116 --> 00:30:35,791
What are you doing?
350
00:30:36,458 --> 00:30:38,641
He would like to meet you.
351
00:30:38,866 --> 00:30:40,466
Honey, please.
352
00:30:41,534 --> 00:30:44,251
I never said
that I would participate.
353
00:30:44,569 --> 00:30:49,011
I bought out your stranglehold contract,
don't get out now.
354
00:30:51,458 --> 00:30:54,141
Meet him, that will convince you.
355
00:30:54,266 --> 00:30:56,891
And what if I don't want that?
356
00:30:57,016 --> 00:31:00,016
You would see him again
may encounter.
357
00:31:01,208 --> 00:31:04,375
Is this your second collaboration?
-Beats.
358
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:08,858
Hello, nice.
-Nice to meet you.
359
00:31:09,583 --> 00:31:13,416
What are you craving?
Cheese? Bread? Sandwich? Salad?
360
00:31:13,541 --> 00:31:15,541
Wine? Beer? Coke?
361
00:31:15,666 --> 00:31:17,583
All that, please.
362
00:31:18,008 --> 00:31:22,008
I just came from boxing.
-Be careful, I'll take care of it.
363
00:31:23,816 --> 00:31:25,441
This way.
364
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:27,520
So…
365
00:31:27,875 --> 00:31:30,476
You have a very nice house.
-Thank you.
366
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:32,499
The garden is very beautiful.
367
00:31:32,625 --> 00:31:34,375
Let's see.
368
00:31:34,500 --> 00:31:37,558
Jean-Luc hates us seeing each other.
369
00:31:38,075 --> 00:31:42,150
That's the last thing he wants.
-I told him.
370
00:31:42,791 --> 00:31:44,625
Why?
-What did he say?
371
00:31:44,750 --> 00:31:48,033
I asked him to come too.
He had to laugh.
372
00:31:48,951 --> 00:31:52,451
You're going to gossip about him anyway,
then immediately.
373
00:31:53,562 --> 00:31:55,620
That's what we'll do.
374
00:31:56,959 --> 00:32:00,043
I saw him for the first time
in the Latin Quarter.
375
00:32:00,875 --> 00:32:05,142
I thought he was strange
with his glasses and the way he talked.
376
00:32:05,451 --> 00:32:09,601
Later he was at Brasserie Lipp
suddenly in front of me...
377
00:32:09,740 --> 00:32:13,274
and suggested we do a shoot
in his hotel room.
378
00:32:13,450 --> 00:32:15,880
I thought he wanted to hit on me.
379
00:32:16,005 --> 00:32:19,833
But my wife said:
don't be ridiculous.
380
00:32:19,958 --> 00:32:21,666
Well, it went very well.
381
00:32:22,066 --> 00:32:27,233
He wrote to me when I was in the army
was in Algeria to be allowed to dub me.
382
00:32:27,958 --> 00:32:30,862
He made it even more colorful:
my first...
383
00:32:30,987 --> 00:32:33,616
feature film is with you.
And look there.
384
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,325
He has kept his word.
That's not nothing.
385
00:32:36,450 --> 00:32:38,742
That's not nothing, that's true.
386
00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:43,670
But he only edited a few
animal and travel documentaries,
387
00:32:43,833 --> 00:32:47,000
followed by a corporate film and short films.
388
00:32:47,125 --> 00:32:51,716
I don't know why, I get it
I don't know anything about it myself, but I trust him.
389
00:32:52,541 --> 00:32:56,275
Does he respect actors?
-If we do what he says.
390
00:32:57,333 --> 00:32:58,933
Don't know.
391
00:32:59,650 --> 00:33:01,050
And…
392
00:33:01,250 --> 00:33:05,500
it seems like such a raunchy and dark story.
393
00:33:05,631 --> 00:33:07,381
Do you think?
-Not you?
394
00:33:08,166 --> 00:33:10,016
He didn't tell me anything.
395
00:33:10,341 --> 00:33:12,808
And you signed?
-Yes, you too.
396
00:33:13,041 --> 00:33:16,781
Did he show a script?
-Truffaut's script?
397
00:33:17,091 --> 00:33:20,641
He said it
is based on a newspaper report.
398
00:33:20,766 --> 00:33:23,900
About the rascal Michel Portail.
Poiccard, now.
399
00:33:24,958 --> 00:33:27,559
Whatever name, that will be me.
400
00:33:28,416 --> 00:33:32,691
Whatever the story is,
with Godard it will be different.
401
00:33:33,416 --> 00:33:36,875
I don't know if it's scary or exciting.
402
00:33:38,316 --> 00:33:39,916
Both maybe.
403
00:33:40,875 --> 00:33:44,291
We'll see.
-On to our adventure then.
404
00:33:53,125 --> 00:33:56,383
This is our press officer,
Richard Balducci.
405
00:33:56,708 --> 00:33:58,750
Hello...
406
00:33:58,875 --> 00:34:00,543
I want to create a myth.
407
00:34:00,670 --> 00:34:06,083
I want to leak during production
that you once robbed a garage.
408
00:34:07,470 --> 00:34:09,871
I'm fine with that.
-Not bad, huh?
409
00:34:11,208 --> 00:34:13,291
A new crook in town.
410
00:34:14,291 --> 00:34:19,108
An assistant comes to the set
who is actually a journalist.
411
00:34:19,333 --> 00:34:20,933
Here's Marc.
412
00:34:24,666 --> 00:34:26,583
Hello...
413
00:34:27,083 --> 00:34:28,583
I'm a fan.
414
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:32,258
I have read all your reviews.
I'm going to keep a log.
415
00:34:33,083 --> 00:34:38,000
When you are put to work...
We need an assistant.
416
00:34:38,170 --> 00:34:39,570
Fine.
417
00:34:52,708 --> 00:34:55,875
That's a nice mug shot of Poiccard.
418
00:34:57,500 --> 00:35:00,634
His portrait in the film book.
That one is perfect.
419
00:35:01,666 --> 00:35:05,741
It has to be in France-Soir, right?
-Of course.
420
00:35:34,541 --> 00:35:37,525
How to make a movie
after such a masterpiece?
421
00:35:37,650 --> 00:35:40,350
Not now.
-Think of Rossellini.
422
00:35:40,475 --> 00:35:44,943
Be quick like him, naughty
as Guitry, musically as Orson Wells,
423
00:35:45,068 --> 00:35:48,468
simple as Pagnol,
hurtful like Nicholas Ray,
424
00:35:48,593 --> 00:35:53,662
effective like Hitchcock, intense like
Bergman and, above all, brutal like no other.
425
00:35:54,791 --> 00:35:57,475
Another crucial thing: good morale.
426
00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:01,700
Confidence and courage, indispensable for this
everyone, every day, to keep going.
427
00:36:01,833 --> 00:36:05,416
And also to dare.
Twenty days is a lifetime.
428
00:36:05,541 --> 00:36:08,175
Be determined to surprise.
429
00:36:09,500 --> 00:36:11,534
Just don't screw it up.
430
00:36:15,625 --> 00:36:18,083
DAY 1
431
00:36:41,458 --> 00:36:46,833
I hope our film has beautiful simplicity
or simple splendor will be.
432
00:36:48,583 --> 00:36:51,616
Thanks for the trust.
-Ah, trust.
433
00:36:51,900 --> 00:36:53,850
What would a producer do without it?
434
00:36:54,041 --> 00:36:56,325
I pray all day.
435
00:36:56,750 --> 00:37:01,116
Don't mock film.
-Otherwise the film makes fun of us.
436
00:37:02,041 --> 00:37:06,808
As a director I strive for
intellectual and moral anarchy.
437
00:37:06,933 --> 00:37:10,991
But not obscure or incomprehensible,
like some reviews.
438
00:37:11,466 --> 00:37:16,042
But a story that says,
a realistic, sexy film noir.
439
00:37:42,958 --> 00:37:44,641
Hello, company.
440
00:37:46,833 --> 00:37:49,733
So this is the big day.
441
00:37:50,208 --> 00:37:51,875
We're going to make this movie.
442
00:37:52,416 --> 00:37:54,016
We're going to do it.
443
00:38:01,375 --> 00:38:04,066
Come, gentlemen, together.
-Come...
444
00:38:05,333 --> 00:38:07,625
Too close.
-For the first day.
445
00:38:07,750 --> 00:38:10,417
The only day we are together.
446
00:38:11,833 --> 00:38:14,403
Wait, Raymond.
One more, stand over there.
447
00:38:14,528 --> 00:38:17,263
Yes, boss.
-This is how a director is born.
448
00:38:17,391 --> 00:38:19,525
Indeed.
-Yes, indeed.
449
00:38:20,583 --> 00:38:22,750
Come, set the bird free.
450
00:38:24,975 --> 00:38:28,858
Do you know Suzon, our recording director?
-Nice to meet you.
451
00:38:29,666 --> 00:38:31,766
You're not working today.
452
00:38:32,391 --> 00:38:36,400
Preminger wanted me there every day.
453
00:38:37,291 --> 00:38:39,541
Available 24 hours a day.
454
00:38:39,666 --> 00:38:41,833
I like that.
-Absolute.
455
00:38:42,333 --> 00:38:46,000
Nice to meet you.
-Hello, I'm Suzon, recording manager.
456
00:38:46,125 --> 00:38:49,758
I have nothing to do at the moment.
457
00:38:50,500 --> 00:38:53,458
Come on, let's make film history.
458
00:38:53,583 --> 00:38:57,851
After all, we are entering day one.
-We enter the Pantheon.
459
00:38:57,977 --> 00:38:59,985
Everyone, stand ready.
.
460
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:03,884
Wait, Pierre.
Any more words of wisdom before we start?
461
00:39:04,109 --> 00:39:05,909
Yep...
462
00:39:06,291 --> 00:39:11,500
"Proof that talent is not a gift,
but the solution in hopeless cases."
463
00:39:11,625 --> 00:39:16,066
Jean-Paul Sartre, something for you?
-Bravo, you may bow.
464
00:39:16,291 --> 00:39:20,458
Pierre, what are we waiting for?
-Raoul has the camera, we can.
465
00:39:20,583 --> 00:39:22,000
Let's start.
466
00:39:24,833 --> 00:39:26,433
Would you like to take a look?
467
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:32,625
You go into the cell, Patricia wants
call, but have forgotten her number.
468
00:39:32,750 --> 00:39:36,983
And that machine swallowed your coin.
Camera, Raoul.
469
00:39:37,708 --> 00:39:39,358
Camera is running, Jean-Luc.
470
00:39:39,958 --> 00:39:41,358
Action.
471
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:55,500
Cut, take.
-Fine.
472
00:39:55,625 --> 00:39:56,833
Good?
-Very good.
473
00:39:56,958 --> 00:40:00,166
Cut.
-We'll continue there.
474
00:40:00,700 --> 00:40:02,267
Come on, let's go.
475
00:40:04,708 --> 00:40:06,325
Camera is running.
-Action...
476
00:40:07,625 --> 00:40:10,333
Order at the bar.
-Immediately.
477
00:40:10,458 --> 00:40:12,666
Guard. Turn around.
478
00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:14,900
Count your money.
479
00:40:15,958 --> 00:40:17,825
See how much money you have.
480
00:40:20,250 --> 00:40:23,051
How much does a ham sandwich cost?
-180.
481
00:40:23,541 --> 00:40:25,141
Then one, please.
482
00:40:28,500 --> 00:40:30,334
Just buy a newspaper.
483
00:40:37,300 --> 00:40:38,967
Cut.
-Stopped.
484
00:40:40,125 --> 00:40:41,992
And then you see the close-up.
485
00:40:45,166 --> 00:40:46,600
Camera is running.
486
00:40:52,316 --> 00:40:53,716
Cut.
487
00:40:54,583 --> 00:40:55,983
Cut.
488
00:40:56,875 --> 00:41:00,683
On to the next?
-Enough for today. I have some ideas.
489
00:41:01,275 --> 00:41:02,775
Shall we pack?
490
00:41:03,083 --> 00:41:05,541
After just two hours?
491
00:41:07,375 --> 00:41:09,783
Shall we rehearse for tomorrow?
492
00:41:10,208 --> 00:41:15,183
Do we have a plan for tomorrow?
-Stay in character, don't learn lines.
493
00:41:16,100 --> 00:41:17,600
Which text?
494
00:41:18,166 --> 00:41:21,291
If you think about the dialogue,
are you prepared?
495
00:41:21,416 --> 00:41:25,475
I understand,
that would be a big mistake.
496
00:41:25,775 --> 00:41:27,180
But yes.
497
00:41:27,305 --> 00:41:32,358
You start thinking about how you would do it
do, not how I want you to do it.
498
00:41:32,700 --> 00:41:36,583
My method is: give more
of yourself in the moment.
499
00:41:36,708 --> 00:41:41,158
You make up your own way
of directing on the spot?
500
00:41:41,358 --> 00:41:43,183
In the moment?
501
00:41:45,458 --> 00:41:47,291
See you all tomorrow.
502
00:41:49,333 --> 00:41:51,616
A glass of wine, please.
-Two.
503
00:41:51,941 --> 00:41:53,541
Three.
504
00:41:57,733 --> 00:41:59,166
The same.
505
00:41:59,491 --> 00:42:01,150
DAY 2
Camera, Raoul.
506
00:42:01,375 --> 00:42:03,333
Listen carefully to what I say.
507
00:42:03,458 --> 00:42:05,541
Go there and down the stairs.
508
00:42:05,666 --> 00:42:09,250
Camera is running, Jean-Luc.
-Come on, away...
509
00:42:10,875 --> 00:42:13,733
Action.
See if you're in the newspaper.
510
00:42:13,858 --> 00:42:16,125
See if you can see your face.
No?
511
00:42:16,250 --> 00:42:18,500
Shine your shoes.
512
00:42:18,725 --> 00:42:20,725
It has to shine for Liliane.
513
00:42:24,416 --> 00:42:26,083
Cut.
-Stopped.
514
00:42:26,500 --> 00:42:28,666
Again?
-That's not necessary.
515
00:42:28,791 --> 00:42:32,425
We're going upstairs.
Come on, get started.
516
00:42:38,250 --> 00:42:39,750
It's here.
517
00:42:50,750 --> 00:42:53,650
Good morning.
-You're too early.
518
00:42:54,250 --> 00:42:56,375
No, not...
-Not much.
519
00:42:56,983 --> 00:42:58,416
I just woke up.
520
00:42:58,541 --> 00:43:01,583
You are beautiful.
Don't brush your hair.
521
00:43:02,170 --> 00:43:03,737
And no makeup.
522
00:43:06,666 --> 00:43:08,733
No, leave it alone.
523
00:43:09,166 --> 00:43:13,041
You, this, everything is perfect.
524
00:43:24,333 --> 00:43:26,833
Rehearsal...
525
00:43:26,958 --> 00:43:31,025
Come, we'll make room for the rehearsal.
526
00:43:33,750 --> 00:43:35,250
I'll be right back.
527
00:43:42,541 --> 00:43:44,500
Raoul, what are we waiting for?
528
00:43:51,083 --> 00:43:53,958
Why are Beau-Beau and Bénazéraf there?
529
00:43:54,083 --> 00:43:58,133
To see how to take off your bra.
-But I'm not wearing that.
530
00:43:58,625 --> 00:44:01,916
Beau Beau is here
to secure its turnover.
531
00:44:02,541 --> 00:44:05,391
And Bénazéraf is just a pervert.
532
00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:09,667
When he says that,
should I undress?
533
00:44:10,083 --> 00:44:15,116
Wait, how about you first
take your dress off over your head?
534
00:44:15,958 --> 00:44:21,208
And then you undress from below.
In this way we suggest nudity.
535
00:44:21,333 --> 00:44:23,200
Suggestion is more powerful.
536
00:44:24,516 --> 00:44:28,583
I would like a scene
a la Bergman in Sommerlak.
537
00:44:28,708 --> 00:44:30,508
Have you seen that, Raoul?
538
00:44:31,900 --> 00:44:33,750
I'm not sure.
539
00:44:33,875 --> 00:44:36,541
Yes, when she puts on her swimsuit.
540
00:44:38,708 --> 00:44:42,058
Haven't you seen that one?
-I was in Vietnam.
541
00:44:42,583 --> 00:44:45,750
Jean-Paul is coming
Raoul, are you ready?
542
00:44:45,900 --> 00:44:48,133
Always. For some time now, in fact.
543
00:44:50,366 --> 00:44:54,408
Suzon, was that cup already there?
-No, thanks.
544
00:44:54,533 --> 00:44:55,933
Stop.
545
00:44:56,360 --> 00:45:00,666
Why ruin the environment
that I'm trying to film?
546
00:45:01,150 --> 00:45:03,041
Because it doesn't fit.
547
00:45:03,958 --> 00:45:08,166
But Suzon, imagine that
I want to record forest sounds...
548
00:45:08,491 --> 00:45:11,616
and I to hear nature well,
549
00:45:11,983 --> 00:45:16,658
cut down all the trees and kill all the animals.
550
00:45:17,083 --> 00:45:22,041
Is that real?
That does not fit into reality.
551
00:45:22,666 --> 00:45:25,500
But it has to fit.
552
00:45:25,626 --> 00:45:28,851
It must be...?
Nobody touches anything.
553
00:45:31,925 --> 00:45:32,925
Excuse me.
554
00:45:35,550 --> 00:45:36,950
Finished?
555
00:45:39,716 --> 00:45:41,291
Out of sight.
556
00:45:41,691 --> 00:45:44,458
So, I'll come and have a look
whether everything is going well.
557
00:45:47,300 --> 00:45:49,916
When we turn.
-Come, quickly...
558
00:45:50,041 --> 00:45:52,241
Everything okay?
-Yes. Sit there.
559
00:45:53,958 --> 00:45:57,025
Camera, Raoul.
-Camera is running, Jean-Luc.
560
00:45:57,350 --> 00:46:01,242
Can I borrow money from you?
-Can I borrow money from you?
561
00:46:10,766 --> 00:46:14,666
Will there be more scenes with Liliane?
-She deserves more.
562
00:46:14,833 --> 00:46:18,250
Liliane deserves a whole movie,
of herself.
563
00:46:18,750 --> 00:46:21,084
You have to do that together.
564
00:46:24,416 --> 00:46:26,708
What? Is it ready yet?
565
00:46:28,875 --> 00:46:31,716
Hello.
-Did you come by taxi?
566
00:46:32,341 --> 00:46:34,983
I just came to have a look,
but you're done.
567
00:46:35,666 --> 00:46:37,958
Are you working tomorrow?
-Hello.
568
00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:40,958
Then no taxi.
-Why not?
569
00:46:41,083 --> 00:46:42,941
Do you send a driver?
570
00:46:43,166 --> 00:46:47,633
There is no driver. Come on foot.
That's better for Patricia.
571
00:46:47,791 --> 00:46:49,208
And what does Patricia do?
572
00:46:52,066 --> 00:46:54,400
And what does Patricia do?
573
00:46:55,250 --> 00:46:57,475
Besides the fact that she has to come and walk?
574
00:46:57,600 --> 00:47:00,283
You shouldn't always nitpick.
575
00:47:00,700 --> 00:47:04,250
I think you'll like it.
-I'm not a good girl.
576
00:47:05,666 --> 00:47:09,416
Besides, I can film you and yours
so let down.
577
00:47:09,541 --> 00:47:11,875
See?
You start to understand.
578
00:47:13,125 --> 00:47:15,408
See you tomorrow. And on foot.
579
00:47:18,100 --> 00:47:20,166
Okay, please...
580
00:47:22,141 --> 00:47:24,408
DAY 3
An artistic creation is...
581
00:47:24,533 --> 00:47:28,583
don't paint anything,
but painting the soul of something.
582
00:47:28,708 --> 00:47:32,208
Film is the expression of sentiment.
583
00:47:32,333 --> 00:47:35,375
So this is our scenario?
584
00:47:36,291 --> 00:47:42,083
Maybe you can do something
write down your sentiment.
585
00:47:44,025 --> 00:47:47,933
It's about a boy and girl
those same words...
586
00:47:48,059 --> 00:47:52,267
give it a different meaning.
What is difficult and important,
587
00:47:53,291 --> 00:47:55,791
is entering unknown territory.
588
00:47:56,750 --> 00:48:00,817
Being aware of danger,
taking risks, being afraid.
589
00:48:01,458 --> 00:48:03,998
He dies or kills the girl.
590
00:48:04,283 --> 00:48:06,833
Can we decide that now?
-No.
591
00:48:08,483 --> 00:48:10,416
Yes, but you don't want that.
592
00:48:10,541 --> 00:48:14,500
Disappointments are temporary.
The film is eternal.
593
00:48:14,626 --> 00:48:17,826
The ending is unimportant.
Fun is essential.
594
00:48:19,708 --> 00:48:21,375
Are we going to run?
595
00:48:22,658 --> 00:48:24,458
He's right.
596
00:48:26,708 --> 00:48:29,176
What is this?
-Look what I found.
597
00:48:29,301 --> 00:48:32,168
This is great.
-Where did you find that?
598
00:48:32,350 --> 00:48:34,217
We put the camera in.
599
00:48:35,583 --> 00:48:38,791
With Raoul in it and parcels on it
it is hidden.
600
00:48:38,916 --> 00:48:41,875
Nobody suspects that
we are filming.
601
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:44,375
It's perfect.
-And it's free.
602
00:48:44,700 --> 00:48:48,175
But above all, complete
natural and realistic.
603
00:48:48,500 --> 00:48:50,567
If it works, it's okay.
604
00:48:54,008 --> 00:48:56,491
Are you going to sit in there?
605
00:49:02,933 --> 00:49:05,933
In accordance with the contract, Jean has a make-up artist.
This is Phuong.
606
00:49:06,420 --> 00:49:09,020
Hello.
-Thanks, but it's not necessary.
607
00:49:09,145 --> 00:49:11,605
No makeup in my movie.
608
00:49:11,900 --> 00:49:14,300
Does he mean that?
-I'll take care of it.
609
00:49:15,216 --> 00:49:19,291
But it is necessary.
-My clothes come from Prisunic.
610
00:49:19,416 --> 00:49:23,717
At least let me have a little
putting on makeup. Please.
611
00:49:24,375 --> 00:49:26,233
Will you arrange this?
612
00:49:29,350 --> 00:49:32,166
May Jean at least
have a make-up artist?
613
00:49:32,291 --> 00:49:34,925
Even if it's just for her safety.
614
00:49:35,583 --> 00:49:38,850
I'm not always there
and Phuong reassures her.
615
00:49:40,041 --> 00:49:43,508
Is it really in her contract?
-In that of $15,000.
616
00:49:47,666 --> 00:49:49,266
Good.
-Nice.
617
00:49:50,375 --> 00:49:53,733
So, the camera.
Watch your head.
618
00:49:53,858 --> 00:49:56,675
Wait a minute, like this.
It's in place.
619
00:49:57,500 --> 00:49:59,167
Look after.
-I'm fine.
620
00:50:00,375 --> 00:50:02,958
Bring the packages...
621
00:50:05,875 --> 00:50:08,309
Secure the cloth securely.
622
00:50:09,516 --> 00:50:10,916
So good?
623
00:50:11,125 --> 00:50:12,525
Excellent.
624
00:50:16,708 --> 00:50:21,875
Jean, you come here to sell newspapers.
Call every now and then. Camera, Raoul.
625
00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:25,734
Place your bets, please.
-Come on, Patricia.
626
00:50:26,708 --> 00:50:29,333
New York Herald Tribune...
627
00:50:32,958 --> 00:50:34,558
Really genius.
628
00:50:35,291 --> 00:50:40,333
I'm walking on the street, a man is filming me
from a postal tricycle.
629
00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:44,842
I say what comes to my mind,
because everything is dubbed.
630
00:50:44,968 --> 00:50:47,803
I have no idea what I'm doing.
631
00:50:47,950 --> 00:50:49,750
It doesn't matter, honey.
632
00:50:50,483 --> 00:50:52,618
We're in the same boat.
633
00:50:52,743 --> 00:50:56,018
When we row together,
maybe we'll get somewhere.
634
00:50:56,143 --> 00:50:57,643
This doesn't make sense.
635
00:50:58,191 --> 00:51:01,525
And that's just the beginning.
636
00:51:01,750 --> 00:51:04,550
I'll buy one.
-How nice.
637
00:51:05,625 --> 00:51:07,025
Thank you.
638
00:51:09,333 --> 00:51:10,833
I'm broke.
639
00:51:12,333 --> 00:51:15,208
Thank you.
-Until the zebra crossing.
640
00:51:16,041 --> 00:51:18,600
You look good.
-If you say so.
641
00:51:19,391 --> 00:51:21,016
Take his hat.
642
00:51:27,250 --> 00:51:30,250
Kiss her on the cheek.
-She has to kiss me.
643
00:51:30,475 --> 00:51:32,116
Kiss him on the cheek.
644
00:51:37,108 --> 00:51:38,766
Away, you're in the picture.
645
00:51:40,750 --> 00:51:43,333
Come on, kiss Belmondo.
-Now?
646
00:51:43,458 --> 00:51:44,858
Run.
647
00:51:47,250 --> 00:51:50,891
He makes me kiss you
and then you have to go that way.
648
00:51:56,480 --> 00:51:57,980
Was that good?
649
00:51:58,333 --> 00:52:01,100
Very good. Cut.
-Stopped.
650
00:52:01,750 --> 00:52:04,100
Is it too late to stop?
651
00:52:04,425 --> 00:52:06,025
Legally no.
652
00:52:06,416 --> 00:52:10,283
Ethically, morally, no doubt.
653
00:52:10,780 --> 00:52:13,050
For your career...
-I don't care.
654
00:52:13,175 --> 00:52:15,784
Why did you convince me?
655
00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:20,875
I wanted to make a film with Truffaut
or Chabrol. He is neither.
656
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:23,767
Indeed, he is neither Chabrol nor Truffaut.
657
00:52:24,240 --> 00:52:27,709
He is Jean-Luc Godard. Who knows?
-"Go, Patricia..."
658
00:52:27,835 --> 00:52:30,702
"Maybe I have some text for you."
659
00:52:32,025 --> 00:52:34,633
With sound it would be different.
660
00:52:34,916 --> 00:52:38,716
Then he has to shut up
keep during the recordings.
661
00:52:39,816 --> 00:52:41,416
I want to stop.
662
00:52:44,250 --> 00:52:47,650
I want to listen to all your problems...
663
00:52:47,850 --> 00:52:52,685
and talk about it all you want,
but you're not going to stop.
664
00:52:58,583 --> 00:52:59,984
Take me out to dinner.
665
00:53:00,900 --> 00:53:02,300
Naturally.
666
00:53:02,425 --> 00:53:05,666
Okay, Pierre,
Are we going or do you want to miss it?
667
00:53:05,791 --> 00:53:09,375
Wait, Jean-Luc.
I timed it carefully.
668
00:53:09,500 --> 00:53:13,666
I guarantee you that I am exactly
knows the right time. Almost.
669
00:53:13,791 --> 00:53:16,225
Warn something before that.
670
00:53:20,250 --> 00:53:22,458
Ready, Raoul?
-Always.
671
00:53:24,083 --> 00:53:25,716
Camera?
672
00:53:29,741 --> 00:53:31,208
Camera is running.
673
00:53:33,333 --> 00:53:36,041
Keep turning.
674
00:53:36,166 --> 00:53:38,433
And cut.
-Stopped.
675
00:53:39,875 --> 00:53:42,158
Not bad, huh?
-Very good.
676
00:53:42,283 --> 00:53:44,563
If only every shot was that simple.
677
00:53:44,688 --> 00:53:46,638
Well done.
-Thank you.
678
00:53:46,875 --> 00:53:49,291
DAY 4
679
00:53:52,458 --> 00:53:54,691
Why?
-You have to pay close attention.
680
00:53:54,916 --> 00:53:56,550
Guess who that is.
681
00:53:57,125 --> 00:53:58,666
Brigitte Bardot?
682
00:53:58,791 --> 00:54:00,250
Natalie Wood?
683
00:54:00,375 --> 00:54:02,000
Sugarpuss O'Shea?
684
00:54:02,125 --> 00:54:03,416
Nouvelle Vague.
685
00:54:03,541 --> 00:54:05,083
Cahier de Cinema.
686
00:54:06,750 --> 00:54:11,391
This film is both a circle
as a straight line.
687
00:54:14,570 --> 00:54:16,253
Bravo, Patricia.
-Thank you.
688
00:54:16,378 --> 00:54:18,012
Please sit down.
689
00:54:18,333 --> 00:54:19,866
I have text for you.
690
00:54:19,991 --> 00:54:23,326
The key to the screenplay?
-Listen, please.
691
00:54:24,400 --> 00:54:29,535
Am I unhappy because I am not free?
or not free because I am unhappy?
692
00:54:29,660 --> 00:54:30,928
Beware, trick question.
693
00:54:31,055 --> 00:54:35,330
Am I unhappy because I am not free
am or not free because I am unhappy?
694
00:54:35,500 --> 00:54:39,333
Man always plays with his life...
695
00:54:39,458 --> 00:54:42,291
and tries to bend it to his will.
696
00:54:43,475 --> 00:54:45,008
I know that.
697
00:54:46,791 --> 00:54:48,916
Coutard.
-Godard.
698
00:54:49,641 --> 00:54:52,810
He prepares
and I tell a story.
699
00:54:53,375 --> 00:54:57,791
The fate of Michel Poiccard
is inspired by Bogart.
700
00:54:58,425 --> 00:55:01,225
In High Sierra and The Big Sleep.
701
00:55:01,500 --> 00:55:04,708
Think of Bogart in The Maltese Falcon.
702
00:55:04,833 --> 00:55:06,708
Try to embody that.
703
00:55:11,375 --> 00:55:13,050
The harder the fall...
704
00:55:13,350 --> 00:55:16,350
To think that I'm Jean-Paul
scouted like a turnip.
705
00:55:16,500 --> 00:55:17,900
Well, say.
706
00:55:18,500 --> 00:55:19,833
Don't touch me.
707
00:55:19,958 --> 00:55:22,208
Out of the way...
708
00:55:22,900 --> 00:55:26,733
When the camera is pointed at you,
make a wink.
709
00:55:28,083 --> 00:55:29,500
Camera, Raoul.
710
00:55:31,500 --> 00:55:33,208
Camera's running, Jean.
711
00:55:49,750 --> 00:55:52,025
You're not filming, are you?
712
00:55:52,250 --> 00:55:53,650
Wink.
713
00:55:54,791 --> 00:55:56,591
Okay. On to the next one?
714
00:56:01,708 --> 00:56:05,125
DAY 5
-Balducci, movie glory awaits.
715
00:56:05,755 --> 00:56:07,776
We need you.
-Why?
716
00:56:08,601 --> 00:56:11,233
I have a role for you.
-For me?
717
00:56:12,333 --> 00:56:14,541
It's going to be great.
718
00:56:15,083 --> 00:56:18,708
With you, Lila, it's going to be great too.
So…
719
00:56:19,650 --> 00:56:22,585
We'll start with this scene.
Learn your dialogue.
720
00:56:22,725 --> 00:56:26,750
Just briefly: Tolmatchoff
would play the gangster Balducci.
721
00:56:26,875 --> 00:56:31,159
He didn't come. Our press officer,
who is also called Balducci,
722
00:56:31,284 --> 00:56:35,700
takes over the role. But you have
changed his name to Tolmatchoff.
723
00:56:35,833 --> 00:56:38,567
Just what this scene needs.
724
00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:40,616
Spontaneity.
725
00:56:44,291 --> 00:56:46,441
Rissient?
What are we waiting for?
726
00:56:46,666 --> 00:56:48,958
We are ready.
-Just a minute...
727
00:56:49,083 --> 00:56:50,600
In a minute.
728
00:56:53,791 --> 00:56:55,666
The man you're talking to
729
00:56:56,583 --> 00:56:58,450
has a first name, Antonio.
730
00:56:59,650 --> 00:57:01,350
Work it out with Balducci.
731
00:57:01,475 --> 00:57:04,925
What's his number again?
-Élysées-99-84.
732
00:57:05,058 --> 00:57:07,525
Can I call from here?
-Go ahead.
733
00:57:11,083 --> 00:57:14,275
Which girl are you coming for?
-The New York.
734
00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:17,434
Is she pretty?
-She's funny, I like her.
735
00:57:19,666 --> 00:57:22,833
Hello? Élysées-99-84?
736
00:57:23,333 --> 00:57:25,166
May I speak to Antonio?
737
00:57:26,333 --> 00:57:27,800
Ah?
738
00:57:28,025 --> 00:57:30,159
Goodbye, boy.
-Ciao, friend.
739
00:57:33,041 --> 00:57:34,708
It's not true.
740
00:57:35,583 --> 00:57:37,083
Again?
741
00:57:39,416 --> 00:57:42,025
You're too late. And slow.
742
00:57:42,250 --> 00:57:43,917
Cut.
-Stopped.
743
00:57:44,291 --> 00:57:46,750
Balducci, faster, the phone.
744
00:57:46,875 --> 00:57:49,116
And you, Boulanger, Fabre.
745
00:57:49,625 --> 00:57:51,725
If he puts his foot there,
746
00:57:52,500 --> 00:57:54,000
you come on.
747
00:57:57,400 --> 00:57:59,833
Again. And better.
748
00:58:00,800 --> 00:58:03,669
If they are late, we drive slower.
-No.
749
00:58:03,800 --> 00:58:07,240
Film is revolutionary art.
It's about movement.
750
00:58:07,375 --> 00:58:12,125
If you are no longer allowed to make films, you can
you can always become a forklift driver.
751
00:58:12,408 --> 00:58:15,041
DAY 6
752
00:58:17,183 --> 00:58:21,100
Are you sitting here all alone?
-We are always alone.
753
00:58:21,691 --> 00:58:24,492
On set and in front of a blank page.
754
00:58:24,916 --> 00:58:27,500
Being alone leads to asking questions.
755
00:58:27,625 --> 00:58:32,250
Making films leads to answers to these questions.
There's nothing romantic about it.
756
00:58:32,375 --> 00:58:36,242
I like the romance
of recordings early in the morning.
757
00:58:41,930 --> 00:58:46,443
Duke Ellington once said: I have
no time needed, just a deadline.
758
00:58:47,083 --> 00:58:51,433
If we are honest and sincere
and stand with your back against the wall,
759
00:58:51,559 --> 00:58:54,409
is always the result
honest and sincere.
760
00:58:55,291 --> 00:58:57,875
You have beautiful handwriting.
761
00:58:59,666 --> 00:59:01,666
The details of the day.
762
00:59:02,750 --> 00:59:04,250
Thank you.
763
00:59:17,750 --> 00:59:19,625
Cut.
-Stopped.
764
00:59:20,541 --> 00:59:22,541
Well done...
765
00:59:26,083 --> 00:59:27,583
Did you like it?
766
00:59:29,083 --> 00:59:31,550
Don't know.
-I'm fine with it.
767
00:59:32,066 --> 00:59:33,366
Okay, one more time.
768
00:59:40,208 --> 00:59:42,083
Camera.
-Runs.
769
00:59:43,916 --> 00:59:45,316
Wheel.
770
00:59:46,083 --> 00:59:47,583
Action.
771
01:00:15,166 --> 01:00:16,958
Cut.
-Stopped.
772
01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:22,216
How did you like it?
-I'm fine with it.
773
01:00:24,083 --> 01:00:27,083
Well, what?
Do you want me to be satisfied?
774
01:00:28,358 --> 01:00:30,358
Shall we do it again?
775
01:00:31,500 --> 01:00:33,100
It's too flashy.
776
01:00:33,708 --> 01:00:35,108
We're going there.
777
01:00:35,541 --> 01:00:37,958
Rivette, lie down.
778
01:00:38,500 --> 01:00:42,333
We'll go from there. No stunt,
the sound gives the shock.
779
01:00:42,458 --> 01:00:44,092
What do you mean sound?
780
01:00:44,708 --> 01:00:46,908
Off-screen is more lifelike.
781
01:00:49,841 --> 01:00:51,683
This stunt is costing us money.
782
01:00:52,383 --> 01:00:53,800
Camera is running.
783
01:01:08,250 --> 01:01:09,650
Cut.
784
01:01:13,375 --> 01:01:14,875
It's done.
785
01:01:15,875 --> 01:01:19,283
Thank you, you are a true friend.
-That's all?
786
01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:21,608
Can't I get a close-up?
787
01:01:23,125 --> 01:01:24,750
No close-up.
788
01:01:26,875 --> 01:01:29,666
But immortality.
-Thank you.
789
01:01:30,150 --> 01:01:32,150
What would you say next?
790
01:01:32,750 --> 01:01:34,250
Naturally.
791
01:01:34,500 --> 01:01:36,966
Of course...
792
01:01:37,608 --> 01:01:41,083
I want to show you something.
In the subway, near here.
793
01:01:41,208 --> 01:01:42,875
Come everyone, come.
794
01:01:43,000 --> 01:01:45,267
Come, Jean-Luc. Come on.
795
01:01:45,666 --> 01:01:47,266
Fine.
796
01:01:48,583 --> 01:01:52,375
What are we going to do?
-Guess who wants to say goodbye.
797
01:01:52,500 --> 01:01:55,575
Hopefully it's worth it.
-You know me.
798
01:01:55,700 --> 01:01:57,250
Precisely.
799
01:02:06,083 --> 01:02:08,541
Look who's there.
Over here, Jean-Luc.
800
01:02:08,666 --> 01:02:10,916
Who is that? Where?
-Straight ahead.
801
01:02:11,041 --> 01:02:14,275
Watch out.
-Stay off the booze, man.
802
01:02:15,900 --> 01:02:17,300
Are you okay?
-No idea.
803
01:02:17,425 --> 01:02:18,967
M. Robert Bresson.
804
01:02:19,183 --> 01:02:21,358
The French film in person.
805
01:02:22,958 --> 01:02:24,616
Are you missing something?
806
01:02:26,041 --> 01:02:28,108
A better ending for my film?
807
01:02:28,708 --> 01:02:32,583
This is Kassagi,
the best pickpocket in the world.
808
01:02:33,083 --> 01:02:35,375
Shall we exchange?
-It's empty.
809
01:02:35,500 --> 01:02:37,100
I'll take this one.
810
01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:50,833
I only had four days
with a lot of extras.
811
01:02:51,666 --> 01:02:53,708
Until then it was fine.
812
01:02:54,208 --> 01:02:56,842
But it's the same people every day.
813
01:02:57,083 --> 01:03:01,958
At stations, race tracks, subways,
you see the same heads everywhere.
814
01:03:02,583 --> 01:03:05,400
I try to hide that, ridiculous.
815
01:03:06,125 --> 01:03:08,916
I'd like to have that kind of problem.
816
01:03:09,041 --> 01:03:12,041
It will probably happen to you too at some point.
-Who knows.
817
01:03:15,666 --> 01:03:18,083
Are you still working with Bresson?
818
01:03:20,060 --> 01:03:21,460
What luck.
819
01:03:21,585 --> 01:03:24,085
DAY EIGHT
820
01:03:53,958 --> 01:03:56,992
Let's see what we have
going to record today.
821
01:03:57,583 --> 01:04:00,783
Good luck with the cracking
of this spy code.
822
01:04:01,166 --> 01:04:03,725
He changed his mind anyway.
823
01:04:03,850 --> 01:04:08,500
But he doesn't throw it away
if he wants to do that? Or yes?
824
01:04:14,350 --> 01:04:16,084
That's it for today.
825
01:04:19,041 --> 01:04:20,916
We didn't film anything.
826
01:04:21,541 --> 01:04:25,391
Does he throw in the towel?
-I don't know.
827
01:04:27,916 --> 01:04:30,458
DAY NINE
828
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:35,434
I wonder what he's going to show.
-No idea.
829
01:04:38,791 --> 01:04:40,191
Good morning.
830
01:04:41,875 --> 01:04:43,275
Good morning.
831
01:04:49,416 --> 01:04:51,241
Another quote.
832
01:04:53,100 --> 01:04:57,433
Why not? If anything said
should be, you should say it.
833
01:04:57,958 --> 01:05:00,759
It's not about getting
just kill.
834
01:05:00,885 --> 01:05:04,458
Jean and I can share that
and read it in front of the camera.
835
01:05:04,583 --> 01:05:06,391
Good idea.
-Thank you.
836
01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:11,425
"Imitating uneducated poets,
educated poets steal.”
837
01:05:11,750 --> 01:05:13,166
T. S. Eliot.
838
01:05:13,291 --> 01:05:17,575
A quote about a quote.
839
01:05:18,000 --> 01:05:21,001
I suddenly understand
why i play a thief.
840
01:05:23,291 --> 01:05:24,908
Paul Gauguin said:
841
01:05:25,666 --> 01:05:28,083
"Art is plagiarism...
842
01:05:28,583 --> 01:05:30,750
or revolution."
843
01:05:33,625 --> 01:05:36,659
You say: I'll be right back.
844
01:05:36,833 --> 01:05:41,900
And you: The French always say "like this"
and mean five minutes.
845
01:05:42,125 --> 01:05:44,358
That's how it is.
-Engine, Raoul.
846
01:05:44,583 --> 01:05:46,183
Camera is running, Jean-Luc.
847
01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:51,291
Action.
-I'll be right back.
848
01:05:51,416 --> 01:05:55,450
The French always say "like this"
and mean five minutes.
849
01:05:55,708 --> 01:05:57,108
Keep turning.
850
01:05:57,558 --> 01:05:59,608
Camera is running...
851
01:06:06,250 --> 01:06:08,117
Cut.
-And stopped.
852
01:06:09,208 --> 01:06:12,558
Again?
-If you want. For me it's good.
853
01:06:12,791 --> 01:06:14,358
Okay, then we'll eat.
854
01:06:14,541 --> 01:06:17,375
Wait, Jean-Luc.
Do you mean that...
855
01:06:17,500 --> 01:06:20,134
Enough for today, I'm hungry.
856
01:06:21,458 --> 01:06:24,416
Making a film is suffering,
but also fun.
857
01:06:24,541 --> 01:06:27,541
Why are you so sad?
What is?
858
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:33,200
Filming would be limitless,
but I can't.
859
01:06:33,325 --> 01:06:35,242
Braunberger told me...
860
01:06:35,633 --> 01:06:38,208
the Hollywood maxim.
-East west at home is best?
861
01:06:38,333 --> 01:06:40,987
That each film consists of five films.
862
01:06:41,112 --> 01:06:43,847
That we write,
that of the division of roles,
863
01:06:43,973 --> 01:06:47,473
that we run, that we assemble
and which we release.
864
01:06:47,708 --> 01:06:50,375
So unlimited is still possible?
865
01:06:50,500 --> 01:06:53,500
Naturally.
Things are constantly changing.
866
01:06:53,725 --> 01:06:56,891
Do you remember?
that you wanted to be a novelist?
867
01:06:57,350 --> 01:06:58,867
That made little difference.
868
01:06:58,992 --> 01:07:03,541
When you skipped anthropology,
you boasted that you wrote 30 pages.
869
01:07:03,666 --> 01:07:05,936
I wanted to publish with Gallimard.
870
01:07:06,065 --> 01:07:10,815
Like Astruc, I wanted that too.
-Did you really write 30 pages a day?
871
01:07:11,275 --> 01:07:12,708
It wasn't good.
872
01:07:12,850 --> 01:07:15,433
It was too hard,
like math.
873
01:07:16,583 --> 01:07:18,141
I wrote:
874
01:07:18,700 --> 01:07:22,334
the weather is nice,
the train enters the station.
875
01:07:22,708 --> 01:07:25,583
Then it went on for hours
and I wondered:
876
01:07:25,708 --> 01:07:28,913
why didn't I turn it around?
877
01:07:29,038 --> 01:07:32,605
"The train enters the station,
the weather is nice.”
878
01:07:33,291 --> 01:07:35,191
Then I wrote: it's raining.
879
01:07:35,416 --> 01:07:38,050
So that wasn't 30 pages a day.
880
01:07:38,650 --> 01:07:40,400
Film is simpler.
881
01:07:40,577 --> 01:07:43,552
Watching movies frees me
of writing anxiety.
882
01:07:44,141 --> 01:07:47,291
And me from the fear of a real job.
883
01:07:47,416 --> 01:07:50,583
And me as a child because of the fear of school.
884
01:07:50,708 --> 01:07:53,400
I watched 200 films while skipping school.
885
01:07:53,600 --> 01:07:57,100
Now it frees me
of the fear of real life.
886
01:07:58,566 --> 01:08:00,133
But be careful.
887
01:08:00,500 --> 01:08:05,191
Watching movies should not set us free
from the fear of making them.
888
01:08:05,416 --> 01:08:06,816
Precisely.
889
01:08:07,666 --> 01:08:09,066
Cheers...
890
01:08:13,791 --> 01:08:17,651
I'd like to have you in the movie.
-Instead of Belmondo?
891
01:08:18,500 --> 01:08:20,166
No, idiot.
892
01:08:23,450 --> 01:08:28,691
You fit in perfectly as the man that Poiccard
recognizes him and reports him to the police.
893
01:08:29,766 --> 01:08:32,225
That seems like a role for you.
894
01:08:33,733 --> 01:08:37,800
That would be perfect.
-You would be admirable.
895
01:08:38,443 --> 01:08:41,916
DAY TEN.
-Hello?
896
01:08:42,041 --> 01:08:46,125
We can't run today.
Call Rissient to inform the team.
897
01:08:46,250 --> 01:08:48,333
And have Beauregard call.
898
01:08:48,458 --> 01:08:50,125
But not before 9am.
899
01:08:50,375 --> 01:08:51,850
I don't feel well.
900
01:08:51,975 --> 01:08:54,809
Probably a wrong one
ate pizza.
901
01:09:04,100 --> 01:09:05,716
The patient himself.
902
01:09:06,541 --> 01:09:08,458
I really don't feel well.
903
01:09:08,583 --> 01:09:11,333
Actually, I feel very mortal.
904
01:09:11,458 --> 01:09:13,250
You can't be sick.
905
01:09:13,425 --> 01:09:17,855
We were up and running in two weeks
eight half days, sometimes only two hours.
906
01:09:18,041 --> 01:09:20,833
Not so negative.
-I'm a producer.
907
01:09:20,958 --> 01:09:23,035
It's not about money for me.
908
01:09:23,225 --> 01:09:27,516
Especially when it's mine.
-It's about money control.
909
01:09:27,941 --> 01:09:29,475
Money is time.
910
01:09:29,600 --> 01:09:33,100
Own pace and own fun
are crucial.
911
01:09:33,225 --> 01:09:36,100
That's the genius of my system.
-Nonsense.
912
01:09:36,525 --> 01:09:38,516
I don't like your pace.
913
01:09:38,841 --> 01:09:41,283
But it is still the right rhythm.
914
01:09:41,683 --> 01:09:46,791
For me and my film.
-If we stop, we limit the damage.
915
01:09:47,116 --> 01:09:52,576
I block salaries as your days
shorten or cancel another filming day.
916
01:09:55,958 --> 01:09:57,358
Come on, Beau-Beau.
917
01:09:57,750 --> 01:09:59,233
Come on.
918
01:10:00,458 --> 01:10:01,916
Come on, fight.
919
01:10:02,041 --> 01:10:03,775
Stop.
-Never mind.
920
01:10:04,000 --> 01:10:06,958
Stop...
It's okay.
921
01:10:09,372 --> 01:10:14,307
I capture reality by chance.
Trust me. You'll thank me.
922
01:10:14,460 --> 01:10:16,694
Then commit it full-time.
923
01:10:16,875 --> 01:10:18,942
That's the reality of filmmaking.
924
01:10:19,625 --> 01:10:22,459
Come out.
-I'm already going...
925
01:10:27,808 --> 01:10:30,891
Attention,
Beau-Beau wants me to read this.
926
01:10:31,016 --> 01:10:34,641
The producer decides
about movie breaks.
927
01:10:35,066 --> 01:10:39,750
The producer trusted the director,
but this trust has been betrayed.
928
01:10:39,875 --> 01:10:42,791
The first weeks
the plan was not followed.
929
01:10:42,916 --> 01:10:44,641
Is there a plan?
930
01:10:45,766 --> 01:10:49,700
This cannot continue.
We ask the director and crew...
931
01:10:49,825 --> 01:10:52,960
for honest work
as in normal production.
932
01:10:53,086 --> 01:10:56,720
As if this were a normal production.
-Thank God not.
933
01:10:57,958 --> 01:11:01,008
And not to postpone
what is still possible that day.
934
01:11:01,319 --> 01:11:03,786
That's it.
-Beau-Beau is worked up.
935
01:11:05,125 --> 01:11:06,958
So what do we do now?
936
01:11:07,383 --> 01:11:08,983
Don't know.
937
01:11:17,333 --> 01:11:20,750
This is all noise.
This doesn't affect us.
938
01:11:22,958 --> 01:11:25,092
Let us not lose heart.
939
01:11:28,833 --> 01:11:31,067
We continue our quest...
940
01:11:31,625 --> 01:11:34,141
to the moment
and the unexpected,
941
01:11:34,353 --> 01:11:36,353
what only we can do.
942
01:11:45,750 --> 01:11:48,766
Not the right time,
straight into the sun.
943
01:11:48,891 --> 01:11:50,741
I think it's very special.
944
01:11:51,416 --> 01:11:56,967
We force the film to give its maximum
by doing what it was not made for.
945
01:11:57,375 --> 01:12:01,750
She too must suffer
when we cross its boundaries.
946
01:12:03,791 --> 01:12:05,433
Why us and not them?
947
01:12:06,708 --> 01:12:08,508
I think it's a good idea.
948
01:12:09,416 --> 01:12:11,766
The film also leaves you breathless.
949
01:12:13,375 --> 01:12:15,125
Cut.
-Stopped.
950
01:12:17,500 --> 01:12:20,500
Only the essential gestures.
-I'm trying.
951
01:12:20,625 --> 01:12:23,250
You already found it. Courage.
952
01:12:23,875 --> 01:12:26,175
Just grab my face.
953
01:12:27,525 --> 01:12:30,460
What are you filming?
-A documentary.
954
01:12:30,641 --> 01:12:34,708
About Jean-Paul Belmondo and
Jean Seberg starring in a movie.
955
01:12:36,000 --> 01:12:38,416
A documentary would have sound.
956
01:12:39,341 --> 01:12:41,250
What is?
-What?
957
01:12:41,375 --> 01:12:44,291
No, nothing.
-Camera, Raoul.
958
01:12:44,416 --> 01:12:46,016
Camera is running, Jean-Luc.
959
01:12:46,650 --> 01:12:48,067
Action.
960
01:12:52,190 --> 01:12:54,673
DAY 12
961
01:13:10,041 --> 01:13:11,666
I'll leave this here.
962
01:13:13,041 --> 01:13:15,291
The magazine.
-The magazine?
963
01:13:15,416 --> 01:13:17,883
Leave the magazine.
-Sorry...
964
01:13:21,500 --> 01:13:23,333
Six, seven, eight...
965
01:13:27,750 --> 01:13:29,350
No, to the right.
966
01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:31,666
And then...
967
01:13:35,541 --> 01:13:38,783
And then again...
-Is this the new fashion in America?
968
01:13:39,458 --> 01:13:41,100
Not in Iowa.
969
01:13:43,358 --> 01:13:44,858
Grab your book.
970
01:13:46,083 --> 01:13:47,916
Do you know William Faulkner?
971
01:13:48,416 --> 01:13:50,041
Do you know William Faulkner?
972
01:13:50,166 --> 01:13:55,166
Who is that?
Did you sleep with him?
973
01:13:55,291 --> 01:13:56,958
No, buddy.
974
01:14:00,208 --> 01:14:03,416
Thank you.
-Thanks, Sam Fuller.
975
01:14:03,541 --> 01:14:05,633
Thanks for Forty Guns.
976
01:14:05,958 --> 01:14:08,841
And thanks for this scene.
-Plagiarism.
977
01:14:09,041 --> 01:14:11,733
It's not plagiarism
just a tribute.
978
01:14:11,858 --> 01:14:16,258
Faulkner's style was born from inability
to write poetry.
979
01:14:16,385 --> 01:14:21,635
My film style was born from...
-inability to write a screenplay?
980
01:14:23,333 --> 01:14:24,933
Touche...
981
01:14:27,958 --> 01:14:33,041
She wasn't wearing the same striped sweater.
-So what? She changed clothes.
982
01:14:33,166 --> 01:14:37,033
It doesn't look like that.
You keep pushing the boundaries.
983
01:14:37,166 --> 01:14:40,641
You will see during installation
that they are looking in the same direction.
984
01:14:40,966 --> 01:14:44,166
I know that.
I understand and I don't care.
985
01:14:44,291 --> 01:14:47,558
I can't get where I want
by following the rules.
986
01:14:51,625 --> 01:14:53,666
Little game.
Camera ready.
987
01:14:53,791 --> 01:14:55,408
Camera is running, Jean-Luc.
988
01:14:56,416 --> 01:14:57,916
Joy.
989
01:14:59,108 --> 01:15:00,608
Rest.
990
01:15:02,166 --> 01:15:04,041
Surprise.
991
01:15:04,700 --> 01:15:06,200
Confusion.
992
01:15:07,916 --> 01:15:09,416
Sadness.
993
01:15:11,041 --> 01:15:12,541
Disgust.
994
01:15:13,791 --> 01:15:15,708
Fear.
995
01:15:15,833 --> 01:15:17,333
Horror.
996
01:15:17,600 --> 01:15:19,483
Despair.
997
01:15:20,400 --> 01:15:21,800
Joy.
998
01:15:22,583 --> 01:15:25,241
Cut.
-Stopped.
999
01:15:26,166 --> 01:15:29,100
Didn't you like that?
-Yes, indeed.
1000
01:15:29,325 --> 01:15:32,525
For the other side
you have to crawl over the bed.
1001
01:15:32,650 --> 01:15:36,791
Indeed.
He chose this hotel on purpose,
1002
01:15:36,916 --> 01:15:39,917
because it has the smallest rooms.
1003
01:15:40,208 --> 01:15:41,733
Absolute.
1004
01:15:41,860 --> 01:15:44,661
He stayed here
the first time in Paris.
1005
01:15:44,789 --> 01:15:47,000
This place is important to him.
1006
01:15:47,125 --> 01:15:49,041
But no one knows why.
1007
01:15:51,641 --> 01:15:55,500
Say your lines
as you walk past to the bathroom.
1008
01:15:55,625 --> 01:16:00,041
You stay in bed,
then you follow her, right past the window.
1009
01:16:00,166 --> 01:16:01,583
Understood?
-Understood.
1010
01:16:01,708 --> 01:16:04,591
Camera, Raoul.
-Camera is running, Jean-Luc.
1011
01:16:04,916 --> 01:16:06,350
Action.
1012
01:16:06,975 --> 01:16:08,683
Don't be angry.
1013
01:16:08,808 --> 01:16:11,042
I can never be alone for a moment.
1014
01:16:15,983 --> 01:16:16,983
Cut.
1015
01:16:17,183 --> 01:16:22,916
Dear Pierre Braunberger, be happy that you
A Bout de Souffle did not produce.
1016
01:16:23,041 --> 01:16:26,958
If De Beauregard makes money from it,
he deserves that.
1017
01:16:27,083 --> 01:16:29,916
If he loses, he deserves it.
1018
01:16:30,416 --> 01:16:34,016
Seberg is desperate
and regrets this film.
1019
01:16:34,666 --> 01:16:37,791
We are really running from day to day now.
1020
01:16:37,916 --> 01:16:42,116
I write the scenes
while having breakfast at Dupont Montparnasse.
1021
01:16:42,245 --> 01:16:44,645
On film the entire team finds...
1022
01:16:44,770 --> 01:16:48,040
including the recording director
the image is horrible.
1023
01:16:48,165 --> 01:16:50,481
I think it's beautiful.
1024
01:16:50,699 --> 01:16:52,008
DAY 13
1025
01:16:52,133 --> 01:16:54,949
Bonjour Tristesse is a good adaptation.
1026
01:16:55,541 --> 01:16:57,141
It works.
1027
01:16:57,708 --> 01:17:00,908
But books are not allowed
be edited into film.
1028
01:17:01,750 --> 01:17:04,750
Movies should be adapted into books.
1029
01:17:04,875 --> 01:17:06,541
Not a single book?
1030
01:17:07,066 --> 01:17:09,925
Not one.
-Not even the Bible?
1031
01:17:11,375 --> 01:17:14,983
If I watch a movie
about the life of Jesus,
1032
01:17:16,716 --> 01:17:19,475
I film something in the Bible
has been omitted.
1033
01:17:19,600 --> 01:17:22,725
With quotes from Renoir?
1034
01:17:22,850 --> 01:17:26,666
And Rossellini.
Their quotes are the Holy Scriptures.
1035
01:17:27,291 --> 01:17:28,600
Amen.
1036
01:17:28,825 --> 01:17:31,908
Okay, now a Bogie.
1037
01:17:32,400 --> 01:17:34,891
Give me your best Bogart quote.
1038
01:17:39,625 --> 01:17:42,458
Nothing comes to mind.
-Come on.
1039
01:17:42,583 --> 01:17:46,250
"Maybe not today,
maybe not tomorrow,
1040
01:17:46,375 --> 01:17:49,208
but soon
and the rest of your life.
1041
01:17:50,333 --> 01:17:54,391
“I think this is the beginning
of a beautiful friendship.”
1042
01:17:55,583 --> 01:17:57,841
“Listen, my angel, I am tired.
1043
01:17:58,166 --> 01:18:01,600
My jaw and ribs hurt.
I killed someone there.
1044
01:18:01,725 --> 01:18:05,025
But not prevented
that someone was murdered."
1045
01:18:05,175 --> 01:18:08,391
Do you want me dead?
-Wait, I know one.
1046
01:18:11,270 --> 01:18:13,670
“I was born when she kissed me.
1047
01:18:14,875 --> 01:18:17,083
I died when she left me.
1048
01:18:17,643 --> 01:18:20,377
I was alive for a moment when she loved me.”
1049
01:18:23,551 --> 01:18:25,351
Is that okay?
1050
01:18:28,500 --> 01:18:33,352
"I'm not particularly handsome,
but I'm a great boxer."
1051
01:18:36,591 --> 01:18:40,391
I'm not particularly handsome,
but I'm a great boxer.
1052
01:18:45,808 --> 01:18:47,208
Cut.
1053
01:18:47,566 --> 01:18:49,008
Stopped.
1054
01:18:53,083 --> 01:18:55,683
Will the installation be successful?
1055
01:18:58,230 --> 01:19:01,030
Luckily the camera loves those two.
1056
01:19:01,800 --> 01:19:03,567
Try that again.
1057
01:19:07,833 --> 01:19:12,033
Between heartache and oblivion
I choose heartache.
1058
01:19:12,666 --> 01:19:15,333
What would you choose?
1059
01:19:16,291 --> 01:19:17,891
Show your feet.
1060
01:19:18,725 --> 01:19:21,859
don't laugh,
that is very important in a woman.
1061
01:19:22,583 --> 01:19:24,408
What would you choose?
1062
01:19:25,625 --> 01:19:27,225
Heartbreak is foolish.
1063
01:19:27,791 --> 01:19:29,625
I choose oblivion.
1064
01:19:50,500 --> 01:19:54,300
I can't find the sentence you said.
Did you make it up?
1065
01:19:54,425 --> 01:19:57,155
Who knows?
Read on.
1066
01:19:57,291 --> 01:19:58,975
End of the day.
1067
01:19:59,410 --> 01:20:02,078
That really smells
to a man on the run.
1068
01:20:02,208 --> 01:20:05,008
Give it, I'll wash it.
-Don't.
1069
01:20:06,140 --> 01:20:08,948
I assure you:
it will remain wrinkled.
1070
01:20:09,075 --> 01:20:11,409
Then I have to go home naked.
1071
01:20:11,775 --> 01:20:14,242
Put on my bathrobe.
-Thank you.
1072
01:20:14,583 --> 01:20:19,750
Making this movie is very un-Hollywood.
I have become completely shameless.
1073
01:20:19,875 --> 01:20:22,508
Not totally, I would say.
1074
01:20:22,800 --> 01:20:25,900
It's almost
as if I were making an amateur film.
1075
01:20:26,025 --> 01:20:29,674
And you are
one of the freest actors I know.
1076
01:20:29,825 --> 01:20:31,225
One of the?
1077
01:20:31,350 --> 01:20:34,367
Who is freer than me?
1078
01:20:34,791 --> 01:20:37,591
No one is freer than me.
1079
01:20:41,025 --> 01:20:43,450
Hello...
Everything okay?
1080
01:20:43,875 --> 01:20:45,275
Well good.
1081
01:20:47,108 --> 01:20:48,508
Good day.
1082
01:20:51,666 --> 01:20:55,291
Thank you.
-Goodbye, see you tomorrow.
1083
01:20:55,833 --> 01:20:58,500
DAY 14
As usual...
1084
01:20:58,725 --> 01:21:02,641
I will stay with one of you,
even when the other person speaks.
1085
01:21:04,041 --> 01:21:08,900
We can toss to see who I stay with.
-Heads or tails?
1086
01:21:09,025 --> 01:21:13,060
I can do this now or during editing.
-Do it now.
1087
01:21:13,185 --> 01:21:14,785
You're right.
1088
01:21:16,200 --> 01:21:19,616
Cup.
-Not necessary. I know you win.
1089
01:21:22,899 --> 01:21:25,399
DAY 15
1090
01:21:33,708 --> 01:21:35,308
The hardest part.
1091
01:21:38,833 --> 01:21:40,841
That was good. And back.
1092
01:21:55,041 --> 01:21:56,433
Thank you.
1093
01:21:56,558 --> 01:22:01,141
What is this?
It's already 11am. What are you waiting for?
1094
01:22:03,150 --> 01:22:06,700
Art and crime
thrive on relaxation.
1095
01:22:06,825 --> 01:22:10,625
I have a terrible toothache.
-Then we'll go to the dentist.
1096
01:22:10,750 --> 01:22:15,375
I know exactly where.
This specialist is not exactly painless.
1097
01:22:15,500 --> 01:22:19,166
But I warn you,
I just go for the laughing gas.
1098
01:22:19,291 --> 01:22:21,191
Let's have a good laugh, come on.
1099
01:22:22,266 --> 01:22:26,201
My agent keeps saying we
will never find work again.
1100
01:22:26,326 --> 01:22:28,610
What special help...
1101
01:22:28,875 --> 01:22:31,583
in a life full of special help.
1102
01:22:32,083 --> 01:22:34,083
Your husband just arrived.
1103
01:22:35,916 --> 01:22:39,191
That's what I just said:
special help again.
1104
01:22:39,416 --> 01:22:42,108
Good morning.
-How are you, darling?
1105
01:22:42,950 --> 01:22:45,125
DAY 16
1106
01:22:45,250 --> 01:22:46,705
If not to me,
1107
01:22:46,830 --> 01:22:51,884
then show the scenario to Rissient.
Or do you have nothing after these rest days?
1108
01:22:53,725 --> 01:22:55,225
Three things.
1109
01:22:55,900 --> 01:23:00,450
I haven't written anything. If I
had something, then not before your eyes.
1110
01:23:00,575 --> 01:23:02,575
And I don't take days off.
1111
01:23:15,108 --> 01:23:17,158
You are very beautiful.
1112
01:23:17,800 --> 01:23:19,200
But...
1113
01:23:19,916 --> 01:23:24,083
you should powder your character.
1114
01:23:25,800 --> 01:23:27,800
How are you going to hold the newspaper?
1115
01:23:33,000 --> 01:23:35,084
A perfect role for François.
1116
01:23:35,209 --> 01:23:38,009
But he doesn't want to.
-Chabrol would be good.
1117
01:23:40,291 --> 01:23:42,000
Rissient.
-Yes?
1118
01:23:43,083 --> 01:23:46,916
Where's my pipe?
-Pipe? I'll get that right away.
1119
01:23:49,616 --> 01:23:51,216
Camera is running.
1120
01:23:53,583 --> 01:23:56,583
France Soir, please.
1121
01:23:56,708 --> 01:23:58,583
Hello sir, 25 francs.
1122
01:23:59,191 --> 01:24:00,691
Thank you very much.
1123
01:24:23,833 --> 01:24:25,875
Cut.
-Stopped.
1124
01:24:26,000 --> 01:24:27,633
Again?
-No.
1125
01:24:30,041 --> 01:24:31,708
We'll do it again.
1126
01:24:31,833 --> 01:24:34,541
Film is revolutionary art.
1127
01:24:34,666 --> 01:24:37,475
Go away...
-Only necessary gestures.
1128
01:24:38,000 --> 01:24:41,408
Life is short, but art is long.
1129
01:24:42,416 --> 01:24:45,346
We're gonna do it a few more times,
1130
01:24:45,471 --> 01:24:50,300
until you have forgotten what you are
had come up with, on your own.
1131
01:24:50,875 --> 01:24:52,958
Camera, Raoul.
1132
01:24:53,083 --> 01:24:56,166
Camera...
Camera, Raoul.
1133
01:25:03,700 --> 01:25:08,301
Be careful, be careful with the car.
Otherwise he cannot return to the US.
1134
01:25:08,426 --> 01:25:12,966
The paint cannot be found in France.
-Don't worry, in case of a scratch...
1135
01:25:13,091 --> 01:25:14,631
we'll paint it pink.
1136
01:25:14,757 --> 01:25:17,757
Very funny.
-Come on, drive.
1137
01:25:17,885 --> 01:25:19,485
Let's go...
1138
01:25:23,708 --> 01:25:26,125
M. Bénazéraf, thank you very much.
1139
01:25:27,208 --> 01:25:29,666
DAY 17
1140
01:25:32,141 --> 01:25:34,000
Glad you're here.
1141
01:25:34,150 --> 01:25:36,817
Walk along discreetly,
I need to talk to you.
1142
01:25:42,125 --> 01:25:44,916
Is it okay if I tell you that story?
1143
01:25:45,041 --> 01:25:46,991
The one about the garage?
1144
01:25:49,333 --> 01:25:54,816
It is also nice if you mention that I have money
stole from my father's practice.
1145
01:25:55,046 --> 01:25:57,646
Good, fantastic. Even better.
1146
01:25:58,441 --> 01:26:01,708
In reality
I regularly stole from my grandmother.
1147
01:26:01,833 --> 01:26:07,132
She had an apartment in Paris with a
large library. Full of first editions.
1148
01:26:07,316 --> 01:26:10,156
I sold a few of them.
1149
01:26:10,285 --> 01:26:14,485
But better to say that
I stole from my father's practice.
1150
01:26:14,666 --> 01:26:18,266
That's crueler
stealing from a respected doctor.
1151
01:26:21,250 --> 01:26:27,133
I was going to interview Rossellini.
You said that, even promised.
1152
01:26:27,558 --> 01:26:29,166
Francois?
-Tell me.
1153
01:26:29,291 --> 01:26:31,916
Do you want to play a press photographer?
1154
01:26:32,041 --> 01:26:35,450
With pleasure.
-Go to Rissient, he knows about it.
1155
01:26:36,375 --> 01:26:39,666
No Rossellini?
-Ask the movie gods.
1156
01:26:40,791 --> 01:26:42,792
I do that, right?
1157
01:26:44,791 --> 01:26:47,025
But Melville is even better.
1158
01:26:51,041 --> 01:26:53,108
You know, I want to direct too.
1159
01:26:53,541 --> 01:26:55,608
This is one of my ambitions.
1160
01:26:55,833 --> 01:26:58,900
Probably the largest.
-Probably?
1161
01:26:59,291 --> 01:27:02,533
It's in your blood.
William Wyler is my cousin.
1162
01:27:02,958 --> 01:27:04,625
A real or distant cousin?
1163
01:27:04,750 --> 01:27:09,800
I'm adapting a story by Françoise Sagan.
Now I like to be an intermediary.
1164
01:27:11,541 --> 01:27:13,875
Everyone, we're ready.
1165
01:27:15,125 --> 01:27:18,208
Actors? Jean-Pierre, Jean...
1166
01:27:18,333 --> 01:27:19,791
Yes.
-Come on.
1167
01:27:27,750 --> 01:27:30,358
Are we filming this as a real interview?
1168
01:27:30,583 --> 01:27:33,041
Precisely.
You respond to who you want.
1169
01:27:33,166 --> 01:27:36,083
Can I talk about women and everything?
1170
01:27:36,308 --> 01:27:40,808
Only if it's just as funny and
brilliant as you really are.
1171
01:27:40,933 --> 01:27:43,958
And Patricia, I'll give you your questions.
1172
01:27:44,083 --> 01:27:45,483
What?
1173
01:27:45,666 --> 01:27:50,267
He can say whatever he wants,
but I am bound by my text?
1174
01:27:51,134 --> 01:27:54,301
Still don't understand?
1175
01:27:54,725 --> 01:27:57,025
You're playing me.
1176
01:27:57,583 --> 01:27:59,983
Who do we start with?
-Melville.
1177
01:28:03,966 --> 01:28:07,241
DAY 18
-Just before shooting,
1178
01:28:07,666 --> 01:28:09,533
says one of the officers:
1179
01:28:10,000 --> 01:28:12,016
Quick, in his back.
1180
01:28:13,541 --> 01:28:15,175
You can't do that.
1181
01:28:16,791 --> 01:28:19,750
"Quick, in his back."
-Please, no.
1182
01:28:19,875 --> 01:28:21,542
Not that.
1183
01:28:22,708 --> 01:28:25,550
I don't even think he should die.
1184
01:28:30,625 --> 01:28:36,666
The same street that Kiki, Man Ray,
Marcel Duchamp, Francis Picabia visited.
1185
01:28:36,791 --> 01:28:38,958
The story keeps getting richer.
1186
01:28:41,966 --> 01:28:43,808
What a beautiful background.
1187
01:28:43,933 --> 01:28:47,583
Check out the dialogue I
created this scene for you.
1188
01:28:47,708 --> 01:28:49,525
You didn't hurt anything, did you?
1189
01:28:52,350 --> 01:28:55,433
Blood?
-No blood, just red.
1190
01:28:55,583 --> 01:28:57,833
An open wound?
-No, only red.
1191
01:28:58,966 --> 01:29:02,033
It's almost ready...
1192
01:29:02,933 --> 01:29:04,475
Camera, Raoul.
1193
01:29:05,541 --> 01:29:07,216
Camera is running, Jean-Luc.
1194
01:29:07,541 --> 01:29:08,941
Action.
1195
01:29:22,125 --> 01:29:23,525
Cut.
1196
01:29:23,650 --> 01:29:26,083
You're too slow.
-It's stopped.
1197
01:29:26,208 --> 01:29:28,000
Get out of the car faster.
1198
01:29:28,126 --> 01:29:30,793
Like you want to kill him.
1199
01:29:33,333 --> 01:29:34,733
Camera is running.
1200
01:29:38,025 --> 01:29:39,833
Quick, in his back.
1201
01:29:42,166 --> 01:29:43,983
Cut.
-Stopped.
1202
01:29:44,108 --> 01:29:47,333
Completely wrong.
I survived, thank you.
1203
01:29:47,458 --> 01:29:49,750
Poiccard will never die.
1204
01:29:50,291 --> 01:29:53,650
Now one without dialogue
for Truffaut. In your place.
1205
01:29:58,541 --> 01:30:01,191
It'll kill you, Poiccard.
Finished?
1206
01:30:01,791 --> 01:30:03,625
It's time to die.
1207
01:30:04,791 --> 01:30:06,191
And it will...
1208
01:30:06,541 --> 01:30:08,941
happen at this zebra crossing.
1209
01:30:12,041 --> 01:30:16,458
Fate and death
his obsessions with the film.
1210
01:30:21,250 --> 01:30:23,250
Camera, Raoul.
1211
01:30:24,875 --> 01:30:27,075
Very good, pick it up slowly.
1212
01:30:31,791 --> 01:30:36,066
You have to finish closer.
-Don't worry, it's a movie.
1213
01:30:36,291 --> 01:30:38,758
Look at me, not at the camera.
1214
01:30:40,583 --> 01:30:42,791
Nothing going on...
1215
01:30:45,750 --> 01:30:49,217
Be aware of shocks.
-Everything's fine, ma'am.
1216
01:30:52,458 --> 01:30:55,525
Continue...
1217
01:30:55,700 --> 01:30:57,100
Stop.
1218
01:30:57,566 --> 01:30:59,125
Cut.
-Stopped.
1219
01:30:59,250 --> 01:31:01,100
Are you okay, Jean-Paul?
-Fine.
1220
01:31:02,441 --> 01:31:04,975
Let's move on.
-A beautiful death.
1221
01:31:05,100 --> 01:31:06,600
A little faster.
1222
01:31:07,291 --> 01:31:09,950
Don't slow down, run.
1223
01:31:11,458 --> 01:31:13,541
Until you're out of breath.
1224
01:31:14,108 --> 01:31:15,608
That's me.
1225
01:31:17,083 --> 01:31:19,958
Very good...
A little faster.
1226
01:31:21,350 --> 01:31:24,375
Run...
Raoul, camera.
1227
01:31:25,383 --> 01:31:26,783
Finished?
-Camera is running.
1228
01:31:26,910 --> 01:31:28,310
Action.
1229
01:31:34,041 --> 01:31:35,916
What is?
-Wait a minute.
1230
01:31:36,041 --> 01:31:37,950
Is it a movie?
-Yes, thank you.
1231
01:31:38,375 --> 01:31:42,125
People have to move back a bit.
-Now, Raoul.
1232
01:31:42,250 --> 01:31:45,458
Let them.
It's normal for them to be there.
1233
01:31:45,683 --> 01:31:47,950
It's very good.
-Fine, Jean-Luc.
1234
01:31:52,000 --> 01:31:53,400
Cut.
1235
01:31:54,430 --> 01:31:55,830
Guard.
1236
01:31:55,988 --> 01:31:57,388
A chair.
Sorry...
1237
01:32:00,358 --> 01:32:01,758
Fine.
1238
01:32:02,791 --> 01:32:07,825
We're going to try the saddest shot
from the history of film making.
1239
01:32:08,583 --> 01:32:10,583
Similar to Bergman's...
1240
01:32:10,958 --> 01:32:14,525
who shot a beautiful scene
in Monika.
1241
01:32:19,083 --> 01:32:20,483
Camera is running.
1242
01:32:22,416 --> 01:32:25,417
You must stop laughing.
1243
01:32:30,450 --> 01:32:32,117
Get his wallet.
1244
01:32:35,750 --> 01:32:37,666
You're the thief, not me.
1245
01:32:37,791 --> 01:32:40,916
I know you would,
but not her.
1246
01:32:41,041 --> 01:32:43,708
But Franchini,
Do you want the police...
1247
01:32:43,833 --> 01:32:47,567
what you can use, take with you?
-I won't.
1248
01:32:48,333 --> 01:32:52,167
Come on, just go.
Like saying something nice.
1249
01:32:54,291 --> 01:32:55,708
This is not correct.
1250
01:32:55,833 --> 01:32:58,250
Purity is out of this world.
1251
01:32:58,775 --> 01:33:02,375
I already betrayed him.
Should I steal from him now too?
1252
01:33:02,600 --> 01:33:04,000
Cut...
1253
01:33:04,125 --> 01:33:07,942
We send our thoughts,
but they say nothing.
1254
01:33:08,400 --> 01:33:10,766
But not our emotions.
They say everything.
1255
01:33:10,891 --> 01:33:13,433
When will this shitty movie be ready?
1256
01:33:14,125 --> 01:33:15,525
Good...
1257
01:33:22,833 --> 01:33:24,333
Camera is running.
1258
01:33:26,858 --> 01:33:31,275
If you don't want to steal his wallet,
then give me something else.
1259
01:33:31,500 --> 01:33:34,742
Do a Bogart for me.
At least give me that.
1260
01:33:38,583 --> 01:33:41,408
What is “horrible”?
1261
01:33:55,041 --> 01:33:57,333
Cut...
-Was that good, Jean-Luc?
1262
01:33:59,708 --> 01:34:04,084
End of shooting for Jean.
-We did it, honey.
1263
01:34:14,958 --> 01:34:17,598
What she has done is incredible.
1264
01:34:23,810 --> 01:34:26,745
Was Godard there?
looking for from the start?
1265
01:34:26,870 --> 01:34:29,870
Don't make me laugh.
Like he had a plan.
1266
01:34:30,458 --> 01:34:32,858
Not our emotions, they say everything.
1267
01:34:32,983 --> 01:34:36,150
Come on, Patricia, give me that.
1268
01:34:36,308 --> 01:34:38,391
That was terrible.
1269
01:34:41,500 --> 01:34:44,958
It's done. On to the next one.
1270
01:34:45,916 --> 01:34:49,550
Starts in a week
Let No Man Write My Epitaph.
1271
01:34:49,909 --> 01:34:52,076
Think of that, Hollywood.
1272
01:34:52,983 --> 01:34:54,583
America...
1273
01:35:07,516 --> 01:35:09,316
DAY 19
1274
01:35:09,933 --> 01:35:13,816
Okay then, Hans Lucas,
what do we start with?
1275
01:35:14,041 --> 01:35:15,708
With a close-up of this.
1276
01:35:15,833 --> 01:35:17,583
Fine.
-Absolutely.
1277
01:35:18,008 --> 01:35:21,491
Will this be the first image of the film?
-Maybe.
1278
01:35:22,625 --> 01:35:24,025
Maybe not.
1279
01:35:24,416 --> 01:35:26,416
I like it.
-Great.
1280
01:35:27,166 --> 01:35:30,816
After all,
it has to start somewhere.
1281
01:35:33,416 --> 01:35:36,375
Now let's commit murder.
1282
01:35:36,916 --> 01:35:38,584
So to speak.
1283
01:35:38,710 --> 01:35:42,531
Artists and criminals
want the same thing: surprise.
1284
01:35:43,350 --> 01:35:46,517
The police officer had that
probably didn't see it coming.
1285
01:35:47,700 --> 01:35:50,525
Trust me, he won't notice anything.
1286
01:35:52,050 --> 01:35:56,325
Once the bullet hits you,
let gravity do its work.
1287
01:35:59,666 --> 01:36:01,266
And then you can leave,
1288
01:36:02,291 --> 01:36:03,791
that way.
1289
01:36:05,416 --> 01:36:07,083
Understood?
-Yes, okay.
1290
01:36:09,750 --> 01:36:12,841
Take each other by the shoulders,
stretch your arms.
1291
01:36:13,625 --> 01:36:16,316
That's just right.
1292
01:36:17,666 --> 01:36:20,291
Watch the bird.
1293
01:36:20,516 --> 01:36:25,275
Movie is…
-...Horrible.
1294
01:36:25,708 --> 01:36:28,166
DAY 20
1295
01:36:32,366 --> 01:36:34,366
Would you like to watch?
-No.
1296
01:36:35,700 --> 01:36:38,967
The last shot of the film,
I should have known.
1297
01:36:41,458 --> 01:36:44,041
Camera, Raoul.
-Camera is running, Jean-Luc.
1298
01:36:44,958 --> 01:36:46,458
Come on, run.
1299
01:36:56,833 --> 01:36:59,333
Do we have that?
-Perfect.
1300
01:36:59,458 --> 01:37:01,266
Then cut.
-It's over.
1301
01:37:01,391 --> 01:37:03,191
Anyway, we're done.
1302
01:37:03,500 --> 01:37:06,734
Leonardo da Vinci said
it better than anyone else.
1303
01:37:07,458 --> 01:37:09,950
Art is never finished,
1304
01:37:10,541 --> 01:37:12,041
left alone.
1305
01:37:12,291 --> 01:37:14,625
And that's the end of the recording.
1306
01:37:15,291 --> 01:37:19,041
Keep running.
We'll meet in Paris.
1307
01:37:19,916 --> 01:37:24,208
Not so, Paris is that way.
1308
01:37:24,726 --> 01:37:27,118
Forget Paris, I'm going to Rome.
1309
01:37:30,559 --> 01:37:32,793
Thanks, Coutard.
-You're welcome, Godard.
1310
01:37:50,833 --> 01:37:54,500
Hopefully you're ready,
I like editing.
1311
01:37:54,825 --> 01:38:00,750
You have the past, present
and the future in our hands.
1312
01:38:00,875 --> 01:38:03,500
Everything without pits can now be removed.
1313
01:38:03,625 --> 01:38:06,625
Which scene should be removed first?
-None.
1314
01:38:06,750 --> 01:38:08,775
We cut the scenes.
1315
01:38:09,916 --> 01:38:13,541
We can get Van Doude out.
-Find something else.
1316
01:38:13,666 --> 01:38:16,250
Seberg's close-ups is
a quarter of the recordings.
1317
01:38:16,399 --> 01:38:21,041
But they are essential.
-Is that long scene with Melville necessary?
1318
01:38:21,266 --> 01:38:23,675
No more or less than the rest.
1319
01:38:24,000 --> 01:38:28,268
Each scene remains, but alone
the best of it. My best of it.
1320
01:38:28,416 --> 01:38:34,125
We cut everything we can from every scene
to create more pace.
1321
01:38:34,250 --> 01:38:37,875
Every scene?
-That brings things to life.
1322
01:38:38,100 --> 01:38:40,791
Take the scene with Poiccard in the car.
1323
01:38:41,216 --> 01:38:45,541
We put all the takes,
in which he overtakes cars.
1324
01:38:45,666 --> 01:38:48,250
Just like Poiccard, the film wants to continue.
1325
01:38:48,375 --> 01:38:50,833
But that becomes jerky, abrupt.
1326
01:38:50,999 --> 01:38:52,399
It's going to be great.
1327
01:38:52,541 --> 01:38:55,350
It's loose sand
and jumps in all directions.
1328
01:38:55,575 --> 01:38:58,309
Absolute. Let it jump.
1329
01:38:59,083 --> 01:39:01,618
If the audience is watching the long jump...
1330
01:39:01,745 --> 01:39:06,220
Méliès, Eisenstein and Jean Rouch
accepts, it accepts ours.
1331
01:39:06,350 --> 01:39:10,133
Maybe not.
-It will accept our new truth.
1332
01:39:13,250 --> 01:39:14,651
Go, go.
1333
01:39:16,250 --> 01:39:18,984
Apparently your movie contains
great things.
1334
01:39:19,783 --> 01:39:23,200
Contractually, the film is allowed
last a maximum of 90 minutes.
1335
01:39:23,625 --> 01:39:25,225
90 Minutes.
1336
01:39:26,783 --> 01:39:28,825
Does an hour and a half feel like this?
1337
01:39:30,375 --> 01:39:33,458
Don't worry,
we are around 90 minutes.
1338
01:39:36,250 --> 01:39:39,275
We have together
been through difficult times.
1339
01:39:40,000 --> 01:39:42,125
Something has to come out of it.
1340
01:39:45,708 --> 01:39:49,708
I don't know if I should convince you
or must manipulate,
1341
01:39:50,208 --> 01:39:53,042
threaten,
have to be honest with you.
1342
01:39:55,458 --> 01:39:59,942
I can't imagine that
make a film with a producer...
1343
01:40:00,067 --> 01:40:02,650
who is not also a friend.
1344
01:40:20,791 --> 01:40:22,608
She's really horrible.
1345
01:40:26,250 --> 01:40:27,750
What did he say?
1346
01:40:27,875 --> 01:40:30,875
He said: you are a horrible person.
1347
01:40:36,025 --> 01:40:38,916
What is “horrible”?
1348
01:41:00,108 --> 01:41:02,542
There is no movie like this.
1349
01:41:03,441 --> 01:41:06,493
Congratulations.
The world is not ready for...
1350
01:41:06,618 --> 01:41:09,691
Take care, Beau-Beau.
-...such a horrible movie.
1351
01:41:10,916 --> 01:41:12,316
And?
1352
01:41:12,583 --> 01:41:16,958
Is it a little horrible or very bad?
-The worst movie of the year.
1353
01:41:17,083 --> 01:41:19,018
It never comes out.
-I fell asleep.
1354
01:41:19,225 --> 01:41:21,766
Luckily you spread out
these rumors.
1355
01:41:21,891 --> 01:41:24,341
Every civilization dies out.
-No Citizen Kane.
1356
01:41:24,466 --> 01:41:27,666
Far from.
-Definitely the worst movie of the year.
1357
01:41:28,059 --> 01:41:30,459
They're going to hate him.
1358
01:41:46,458 --> 01:41:51,541
A BOUT DE SOUFFLE IS CONSIDERED
AS ONE OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL FILMS EVER
1359
01:41:51,766 --> 01:41:57,041
JEAN-PAUL BELMONDO JUST GOT WORK AGAIN
1360
01:41:57,166 --> 01:42:00,658
AFTER A BOUT DE SOUFFLE
HE BECAME AN INTERNATIONAL STAR

01:42:00,783 --> 01:42:03,125
HE PLAYED IN ALMOST 100 FILMS
1362
01:42:03,250 --> 01:42:06,933
JEAN SEBERG DIVORCED
SHORTLY AFTER FROM MORIEUL
1363
01:42:07,058 --> 01:42:10,916
SHE PLAYED IN 35 FILMS
AND DIED AT THE AGE OF 40
1364
01:42:11,041 --> 01:42:15,255
THE DEATH ADVERTISEMENT SPOKE OF...
1365
01:42:15,380 --> 01:42:18,625
"THE STAR OF A BOUT DE SOUFFLE"
1366
01:42:18,750 --> 01:42:23,583
THE PERSONAL FILM REVOLUTION OF
JEAN-LUC GODARD LAST MORE THAN 60 YEARS
1367
01:42:23,708 --> 01:42:29,033

1368
01:42:29,158 --> 01:42:33,258
