All language subtitles for La baby-sitter (1975)

D'you know the road to the airport?
The restaurant, Taverna Roma Vecchia.

Leave me alone!

Watch it!

Call for help.

- Call an ambulance, quick.
- An ambulance, quick.

- What's this film called?
- Passionova.

- I hope it goes alright.
- Of course it will go alright.

My first job since I left hospital.

Stop worrying. You're young, beautiful.
And I'm sure you're talented.

Can I come on the set?
I've never seen a film being done.

Sure.

It's not much of a part.
Just a couple of scenes.

Your chance will come.
It always does.

My chance?
I've had it hundreds of times.

Just bit parts and casting offices.

Four years of it.

- Has you boss found a place?
- Yes he's been living there for weeks.

- Do you see him a lot?
- Every day.

- What d'you do for him?
- Franklin? I run his business.

I make the money and he spends it.

I know it's not my business Miss Carson

but I can't help wondering
what happened between you two.

Same old story. I met him in London.
Then again in Rome when he came here.

So it was you.

A lot of hotel bedrooms,
rented apartments.

It was always in secret.

As if he were ashamed of me.

I thought I was in love with him,
but he has no feelings.

Yes, he's a hard man.
Cold blooded.

- Doesn't love anybody except himself.
- And his son.

- He really loves that boy.
- I was never allowed to meet the boy.

After the accident,
he sent me a bunch of red roses.

There was no name on it.
He never wrote, he never even called.

I'm old enough to be your father,
so I don't have any...

But I was very sorry
about what happened to you.

Thank you Mr. Henderson.

The roses, were from me.

Ann, they're waiting for you on the set.

Stuart Chase, Mr. Henderson.

I'm an old fan of yours.
In "Bandit's Holiday" you were amazing.

Those were the days.

You'd better hurry.
They want to change your scene.

- Can I offer you a drink.
- Yeah, I've got time for a quick one.

Lottie, come and meet one of my fans.

This is my other half.
Lottie, Mr. Henderson.

- That was the picture where we met.
- Really, how nice?

- I can't. It wasn't in the script.
- So what!

Why d'you think I chose you?
For your brains.

I won't do this stupid film.
I won't!

- Damn you. Come here.
- Leave me alone.

Leave me alone!

The bastards.

- What's wrong?
- They sacked me.

- How did it happen?
- 'Cos they're bastards that's how.

Come home.

I can't even pay the rent.

We'll borrow somehow,
like we did the last time.

Who from?

You've got that actor friend.

Stuart?
He hasn't got a cent.

And the man who was
looking for you, from the accident?

No. I hardly know him.

- Who is he?
- He works for someone I used to see.

He's the only man who's been kind to me
without wanting something in return.

Money, money!

I'm fed up with
depending on men for money.

I'd prefer babysitting,
like you if I had to.

You can't let me down like this.

Oh, shit!

What's the problem?

You've been naked before.

You can't do this. I got you the part.
They'll blame me.

You blow this one and you're finished.
Right back where you started.

Right back where I started.

Sorry.

I'll talk to someone
and see what I can do.

I'm terribly sorry Miss Carson.

I'm sure Franklin doesn't know.

He'll pay for this.
He'll pay through the nose.

Don't say these things.
Don't talk like that.

From my father.

You can tell he loves you.

No need to look so guilty.
At least you've got a father.

It's not much.

There are two kinds of money.
The kind I make

or don't.
And the kind your father sends you.

His is better,

Keeps you warm.

- Could I sell my fur coat?
- Of course. It must be worth a fortune.

That's what you think.

I should have chosen black.

It must be worth something.

Something. That's about all it's worth.

You never stop working do you?

What's that? She's ill?

Of course, send another girl.
I can't stay.

Not again!
Keep that thing out of here.

Please make sure she comes on time.

Johnny, you're back.

You said you'd be back on Monday.

You know what Bologna is like.
Unbearable.

Two months. You don't know
how much I missed you

And you're just in time.

We've got to finish our masterpiece.

They want to throw it out.

Our baby? Not on your life.

Telephone!

Don't forget Michelle,
you still owe me a dinner.

My last night in town
and you stood me up.

It wasn't my fault.
I had the accident.

Don't work tonight.

This is Michelle Johnson.

Wait. I can't. I'm babysitting.

I'm listening.

OK, I'll be there. Thank you.

- I need the money.
- Money, always money,

We're behind on the rent.

- We, who's we?
- Ann. You've not met her yet.

The girl who was in the accident.

But we've not seen each other
for two whole months.

Another guy?

You win.

Midnight. At Luigi's.

- Promise?
- Promise. This time I swear.

Every time we have an appointment
something comes up.

Come on. Take my keys.

- D'you love me?
- Yes.

- Alright, take my keys then.
- But you might need them.

- You won't stand me up now?
- Of course I won't.

You've changed your style.

- 50,000 lira.
- I like him. He's very...

- Well...
- For the fare.

They're opening a restaurant
for him on Monday.

- Who's that?
- The babysitter.

Mr. Franklin son is here.

He's already had supper.
He goes to bed at nine.

I'm going now.

If you want to eat,
stove is there and food in fridge.

- What's your name?
- Boots.

- Is that a good film?
- No it's not a film, Just something.

Would you like something to drink?

Something hot?

- Is the kitchen down there?
- At the end of the corridor.

- I made you some hot chocolate.
- Thank you.

Why are you wearing a wig?

No reason. Just for fun.

- Better drink it before it gets cold.
- I don't like chocolate.

Please drink it.

I don't like chocolate!

Drink it.

- Drink!
- No.

Yes it's me.

Is everything OK?

- I think so. I just came in.
- I was just checking.

That's alright.
But I've got an appointment at midnight.

- Will you be back before?
- Yes of course.

Please help yourself
to anything you need.

Sorry about the phone. It's
almost impossible to get a line out.

- It doesn't matter. I don't need it.
- Thank you Miss Johnson. Goodbye.

Something terrible has happened.
There's been an accident.

- I'm at the hospital.
- How awful. I hope you're not hurt.

- No but, my husband
is still unconscious.

- I'm really sorry.
- Is Peter alright?

- He's fine. He's fast asleep.
- Could you stay until morning.

- That's awkward.
- I'll pay you double the normal rate.

But I've got an appointment.

You can't leave the boy alone.

- I understand Mrs. Werner.
- Please Miss Johnson.

- Alright. I'll explain it.
- Thank you. I'm so grateful.

If Peter wakes, please don't say.
He's such a nervous child.

I'll call you first thing in the morning

I understand but...

Waiter, bring me a nice steak please.

Do you mind, would you take my picture.

With the table and everything.

- 1,000 lira
- 800

- Good morning.
- Good night.

- Where's Michelle?
- How should I know.

I found these here when I arrived.

- Excuse me. Who are you?
- A friend of Michelle, her fianc�.

- Engaged?
- Almost.

She's disappeared.

I've got my own problems.
Leave me alone.

- Open up. Where is she?
- Go home!

- I can't. She's got my keys.
- She isn't here.

Hello? Finally decided to wake up?

I'm Michelle.
Your mother asked me to look after you.

- I don't have a mother.
- Of course you have a mother.

All children have mothers.

You've kidnapped me haven't you.

Of course. for a few hours.
Until your parents get back.

It's great coffee.

Want some?

- You're going to kill me?
- What are you talking about?

I'm not going to hurt you.

Peter, what's the matter.

What did I do?

If you want something to eat
I'll be in the kitchen.

There's nobody here.

- I can see. Come back Thursday.
- That's disgraceful.

Not the only thing around here.

They'll put you in jail.

- Who will?
- My father.

Who's your father?

He'll hire all
the policemen in Rome to get you.

- Get me for what?
- For keeping me here.

- I'm not keeping you here?
- Then why did you lock the front door?

Is this your house?

It's yours isn't it?

My father's got a helicopter.
He'll land on the roof and get you.

When?

When he's ready.

Help!

Help me!

- Shut up and listen.
- Who are you?

Shut up and listen, understand?.

If you try to get out of that house,
or I hear any more noise

I'm goin' to come in there
and rip your face off.

Cut you to pieces?

Why am I here?
Why me?

Peter, for Christ sake,
turn the water off.

Listen to me.

I don't know what's happening.
But we've both been kidnapped.

Can you hear me.
I swear I don't know anything.

- Trust me Peter.
- My name isn't Peter

OK, it isn't Peter,
but turn the water off.

If you don't, they'll do
something terrible or even kill us.

Turn off the water,
or I'll break the door down. I mean it.

I'll count to three.

Now let's talk.
Tell me who you are.

Boots.
Boots Franklin.

Tell me what happened
and why you're so afraid of me.

- You gave me that chocolate last night.
- What chocolate?

Last night.

I didn't.
You were fast asleep when I arrived.

You came to my house.
You had a wig.

I never had a wig in my life.

- She forced me to drink the chocolate.
- She? Who is she?

- So it wasn't me then?
- You aren't like her.

- She wore jeans?
- Perhaps. I don't know what she had on.

Sometimes she wears a bright red coat.
And sometimes a jacket.

She has beautiful brown hair
and a birthmark on her left cheek.

The most beautiful girl in the world.

And she didn't have dinner
with you last night.

Exactly.

And she failed to appear
at her home this morning.

- Precisely.
- Because she was babysitting in Rome.

Taking care of a lousy baby,
instead of going out to dinner with me.

Shouldn't she like me
better than her babies?

Put it on the bill.

Here's a picture I took of her.

Very charming.
Now, look at this.

They're all missing.
Tall, short, blonde, brunette.

- They're all missing in Rome.
- I don't care. I only want Michelle.

She must be missing two weeks
before we can take on the case.

What d'you mean two weeks?
She's got my keys.

- What keys?
- The keys to my own apartment.

- I thought you lived alone.
- I do.

- Then she has your keys.
- She has my keys.

She might have spent the night
with another kind of baby.

What are you saying?

Maybe a baby with a moustache.

- What moustache?
- With a fine man.

About 22 years old..

22?

You can let it go for now.

Come on out.
You must be cold in there.

- Are they going to kill us?
- Of course not.

Don't be afraid. they won't
kill us if we do as they say.

I'm not lying Boots. I've never been
to your house.

- What do you do?
- I make statues.

- What does your father do?
- He's a mechanic.

He lives in Senegal.
That's in Africa.

That's where I grew up.

hat about your father?

food.
- Is he very rich?

Yes. He's got a bank
and lots of stores.

Mine isn't. It costs him a lot
of money for me to live in Rome.

- Do you have brothers and sisters?
- Three sisters and a little brother.

Just a bit older than you.

And you?

You don't have blue eyes.

Are we friends?
Come on.

If you're French,
why do you live in Rome?

When I came to Europe
I went to Paris to study.

Maybe too big.

Then I loved someone very much there.

But it didn't work out.
So I came here to be alone.

- Understand?
- Of course I do.

Maybe this could be
the baby we've been talking about.

- What baby?
- He disappeared last night.

- He disappeared?
- With the babysitter.

With the babysitter?

According to the cook who let her in,
she was 22,

black hair and beautiful.
Charmingly beautiful of course.

The ransom is three million dollars.

- By the way, you mentioned an address.
- Yeah. I mentioned it already.

My cleaning lady...

Piazza Santa Egilio.

- Got it?
- Got it.

Where is the telephone?

- Who's Franklin?
- The telephone.

In the corridor.

I'm Inspector Trieste.
Who's handling the Franklin kidnapping?

Inspector Carrara?
Is it possible to speak with him?

We have a lead on the baby sitter.

What is this? What's going on?

- We're looking for Michelle Johnson.
- Has something happened to her?

- We just want to ask a few questions.
- Why what for?

She was babysitting last night,
at the house of Cyrus Franklin.

The boy has been kidnapped.

Does she often disappear like this?
I mean without telling anyone?

No Michelle wouldn�t do
anything like this.

- How do you know?
- I just know.

- I've lived with her for two months.
- That's not very long.

When you've seen as much as I have

You'll realise that almost anyone
is capable of almost anything.

No, not Michelle.

- You?
- Yeah.

Excuse me.

Then where is she?

Maybe she found her boyfriend.

I know she's innocent.

- May I?
- Sure.

The description is different.
Michelle has brown hair, not black.

Anyone can put on a wig.

- Who's the boy?
- The son of Cyrus Franklin. Well known.

Chemicals, finance food.

"The best food at the best prices."

They say he drives a hard bargain.

- Got everything?
- Yes inspector.

Do you have many friends
in Rome, Miss Carson?

Would you like to have
dinner with me one evening?

Bastard. Leave me alone you lousy pig.
What do you want?

D'you know what
the cost of eggs is today?

Four hundred lira for six.

Incredible the way
the price of everything is going up.

Except yours my dear.

Here, you better see if it fits.

By the way. The agency called
Something about a western in Columbia.

Tell them to shove it up their ass.

Tell that to your fans.

I'd rather puke
than ride into another sunset.

- Any news?
- Did you bring the money?

- It's all there. Two million dollars.
- Used notes?

Just as they told us in the letter.

- What about the police?
- They've agreed about everything.

- Are you sure they won't follow you?
- I made it clear to be left alone.

Have they got a suspect?

I don't know. There's
a French girl they're talking about.

All I want is the boy.

If anything happens to Boots,
I'll search for the bastards

for the rest of my life.

- What is it?
- I'm sorry.

It's about the takeover
of International Foods.

New York needs a decision.

Christ!
Do I have to do everything myself?

- Could you settle this for me?
- It's already underway.

I also terminated with B.F.C.

By the way.
Your wife called me last night.

First time she's
shown any interest in the boy.

- What's happening?
- Nothing. He mustn't like sausages.

He's coming.
He's coming to us.

Here, take this.

He's gone back to the gate.

I can't hold you any more.

Got a match?

Hold him quick.

- His name is .
- Bring him over here.

Let's hope the old lady understands.

Bonzo, what are you doing there?

Look, she's signalling.

He made it. He made it.

- Who are you?
- Put down the phone.

- Put down the phone.
- Who are you?

Why did you kill her? The dog
shouldn't have gotten into the villa.

I killed her. What d'you expect?
Wait for the police to get here?

- It's done
- That's easy for you to say.

You and your husband
better get it on with Franklin.

- I'm not hanging around!
- Oh yes you will.

Your head's in a noose and
now you've got to go through with it.

How long will it take
the police to get here?

I don't know.
Perhaps.

Of course they'll come.
The old lady waved to us.

- I'm starving.
- Alright then.

- Feeling brave?
- I'm hungry.

Shall I turn the light on?

No. No, better not.

Come here.

Michelle, it me, Johnny.

I know you're in there.
Answer me.

I'm exhausted. I want to sleep.
Give me my keys.

What are you doing here?

Are you looking for someone?

The doorbell doesn't work
Nothing works, electricity.

- Nothing
- How d'you get in here?

Get in, get out.
It's not important.

Everything's finished. End of the world.
Everything's dead here, even the plants.

There's nobody here now.

That's the trouble everywhere.
No one cares about people anymore.

Why is my salad tasting more bitter
everyday. Doesn't that worry you?

Disappeared.
Everything disappeared.

Why do Swedish chickens have two heads.
Isn't that strange.

Whose fault is it?
The fault of the ultra-violet light.

Radioactive Mozzarella.

- Leave me alone.
- It's finished, yes.

I never agreed to kill anybody.
No one was to get hurt.

- You would trust that stupid stunt man?
- I did three pictures with him.

- And that makes any difference?
- It's your fault. So shut up.

Why did you tell her
about the old woman?

You can't keep your trap shut can you?

I'm finished with it.
I've had enough.

Now it's murder.

It's murder.

You're not going anywhere?
Shut up and sit down.

- I'm not staying.
- All the way, just like the rest of us.

- But if we get caught.
- We're not getting caught.

Listen. Dammit!
No one is looking for you, but Michelle!

and they don't know where she is.
We just need a few more hours.

- What about Michelle?
- She'll do what we tell her to.

She'll call Franklin
to pick up the money.

You said everything would be alright
for her. Now there's been a murder.

- What'll happen to her?
- Start thinking about us.

It'll work out just like I planned it.

You planned it huh?

- He did didn't he.
- Yeah, the Lone Ranger.

- You used me.
- And you agreed to it.

You weren't against
taking any money either.

We'll make him pay through the nose
you said. And now he is.

How do you know I said that?

I've found where Michelle is.

Where?

- In a villa, on Via Della Magnolia
- How do you know?

Well, I saw her there.

I'm a friend of Michelle's also.

What do you mean, you saw her?

I saw her red coat through the window.

- Could have belonged to anyone.
- It's the only one in the world.

Were you alone.

Yeah.

Close the door.

Did you ring the bell?

Sure but there was no answer.

- Then you could have made a mistake.
- I'm afraid I have to go.

I hope you find your friend.

Yeah, well I'm going to the police.

Let's... think this out...

carefully

But it was Michelle.
I know it was.

- Do you have a sedative?
- No, I don't do drugs.

Suppose you're right.
Why didn't she answer the door?

- Why didn't she?
- Because she's a prisoner.

Or perhaps it wasn't her coat.

Someone was there with her.

The police think she did
the kidnapping herself.

They came and made all this mess.

I know she didn't do it.

Whoever took the boy took her as well.

You say she went to
baby-sit last night on the... Via...

Via Della Magnolia

Right.

And you say she's still there now.

- Of course.
- That doesn't make sense.

The boy was kidnapped from his
father's house, the other side of town.

- What was that van doing there?
- What van?

Listen, Before we go to the police,
let's all go and take another look.

Ann, you come too.

Don't go.

- Hello?
- Miss Johnson.

- It's you?
- Do exactly what we tell you.

Leave the house. Go to
the garage with the boy.

Take the car and follow the instructions
of the motorcyclist you'll see.

- I can't drive.
- Don't waste my time.

Your boyfriend has messed things
up enough already.

Do what we tell you,
or we'll kill that kid.

What do we do?

I saw her through
that window in the back.

It all looks pretty normal to me.

It's not normal.
It's too peaceful here.

What's that van still doing there?

A telephone company repair van

Like Romans repair phones
at this time of night?

- I'll see if someone's there.
- Wait a minute.

Suppose you're right.

- Could be risky.
- Of course I'm right.

What next?

- I'll call the police.
- Are you quite sure?

- You've thought it all through?
- It's the only solution.

What are you going to tell them?

- Yeah, you're right.
I'll go in person.

I'll take you there.

You stay here.
After all, she is your friend.

You can tell us if you see
anyone leave the house.

Careful Ann, don't let them see you.

It could be very dangerous.

- Why are you still here?
- These idiots are barricaded inside.

No Lottie, they've gone to the police.

So what. They'll probably
have a breakdown on the way.

I can't stand it Lottie.

- What are we going to do?
- Cut the bullshit and get in that house

Go on.

The lights are off. Check the fuse box.
Then see if you can find them upstairs.

Go on!

Alright.

Where are they?

You fucking bitch.
Where's the kid?

Where is he?

Where is he?

Hurry up. I'm fed up with your whining.
It's not our fault we're in this mess.

It's not my fault either.
It's Stuart's plan.

Stuart nothing.
Your friend Henderson got us into this.

Dear respectable, little Mr. Henderson.

What's he got to do with this?

Everything! That's what.

Enough.

Are you mad?
What if she sees you?

Stop it!

I've got the kid down here!

- Where are we?
- Police headquarters.

- Thank you.
- Glad to be of help.

- Where's the van gone.
- It drove away just after you left.

Everything's alright Miss Carson.
Don't be frightened.

You have a very
vivid imagination young man.

The villa belongs to an
orchestra conductor, Bruno Werner.

They're on holiday in Mexico.

Take a look upstairs.

They found it in the garden.

Leave the money...

in the back of the brown car
you'll find parked at the

Bugia crossroads at six o'clock.
It's a deserted spot.

Then go home and wait for another call,
to tell you where to find your son.

Any interference from the police
and we will kill the boy.

Daddy. I'm alright. I'm with Michelle.

Don't stay here.
Go back home.

- You're really cold blooded aren't you?
- I'm a realist.

The way you used Ann.

That girl was a loser from the start.

She needs someone to look after her.

You.

Ever make a mistake?
Why should I?

- Mind if I wait in your car?
- Make yourself comfortable.

He's in for a surprise if he thinks
Ann's going to talk to him again.

That's his whole game. Nobody knows
anything except you and me.

- So what do you mean?
- Nothing I said.

Franklin. He's coming.

- Meet up at the quarry in half an hour.
- Come with us?

I don't want
the motorcyclist to see me.

That's right.
You don't make any mistakes.

- Out!
- Let's go.

What about the girl?

- The dead rest in peace.
- Listen.

- That's up to you.
- Yes it is.

Get rid of the bike,
and fetch Ann from her place.

What if I run into the girl?
She'll recognise me.

- Don't start again.
- I'll say my fill.

Quiet both of you
and listen to me.

- I've a right to speak.
- The road's a dead end..

It better be.

Michelle, look. The money.

- Why are you crying?
- I'm not crying.

Look!

Are they dead?

- No one's there any more.
- What about the motorcyclist?

- He's gone. they're all gone.
- Don't worry.

- Are we free now?
- Yes.

You can go home.

- What's the matter?
- I want to stay with you.

Let's go.

Dead end.

It's here.

I think you can make it on your own.

I won't come in.

Come on. You father is waiting for you.

I'll see you soon.

I promise.

They've got the money.

- Did the police stay out of it?
- Yes.

But I haven't heard
anything from anyone.

Nothing.

I've done everything I could.
Everything.

I never knew...

that I could be hurt so bad.

Safe and sound!
You don't know what it means.

Are you alright?
Did they hurt you?

- Michelle looked after me.
- I'd better call the police.

Come on. Tell me now.

- Who's Michelle?
- Michelle? She's great.

But they killed Bonzo.
The dog.

Dear Michelle

I never meant you any harm.
I swear.

Forgive me for causing
you another problem,

It doesn't matter
what you do with my body.

I never liked it.

I don't regret it.

She's dead. They're all dead.

I already called the police.

That just leaves you and me.

A token please.

The telephone is there.

I want to report a suicide.

The Piazza Santa Egilio

Second floor.

That's not all.

The man who kidnapped
the son of Cyrus Franklin.

His name is Henderson.
