All language subtitles for A Lizard in a Womans Skin (1971) 1080p

Come in, Frank.

I didn't know my father was supposed to knock too.

He doesn't have to,he does it out of good manners.

But he's your husband!

Even a husband can be good mannered.

I'll take something to study from your pharmacy

I've made breakfast

Eden hasn't come alone today

Want me to bring it up to you?
- No, I'II come down at once.

Has Frank gone?

Ages ago, don't you know what time it is?

The Corridor...
- The corridor of the flat next door.

I don't know how i knew that

I've never set foot in that place.

And then there is no place with such a long corridor

That's the corridor of the flat next door

You have already dreamed about it

Before,
and eventually, at the end of the corridor

You see a person, aIways the same person...

- Julia Durer!

Your next door neighbor.

The woman who lives in that flat
Your next door neighbor.

The woman who lives in that flat

In you dreams you always see her dressed as a striptease artist

or a prostitute

In fact that woman for you represents degradation, vice

A flat next door is a symbol of vice

You've refered to that woman before as someone who is not quite respectable

No, She certainly isn't

That's it

Your conscience
forces you to disapprove of that woman's way of life

Perhaps, at the same time her freedom excites you curiousity

You feel attracted

This conflict which is responsible for your state and anxiety

explains the recurrence of your dream

What is this those neighbours of yours up to? Sounds like a football match...

CaroI...Brandy? -
No, thanks, Daddy. - You know, you shouId.

If you got a little drunk every night
instead of spending all that money on Dr. Kerr

It would certain cure your insomnia.

Look, my boy, why don't you take her away for a bit?

You know a little trip might do her the will of
good. Don't you think?

She is tempt to go alone. During her exams

And?

Who's going to look after the chambers when you're away for the elections

Think it over.

Straight on

It's all this chilly weather that making my arthritis play up

Morning, Gerard

I'll tell you what i'll do

I'm going to my house in Greenfield for a while to prepare for the elections speeches (?)

That use me defending Tommy tomorrow

I don't suppose you've been mad about the idea

Oh, Come on, You're not another substitute, you're like my partner

You know, why otherwise you think your name is the secong one in chambers?

Because I've married your daughter and you adore her

Come off it

It isn't.. it isn't tie i am worried about

It has shares the least of my worries at the moment

Well, it's that journey to Harbourville.
Haven't you got a conference within this evening?

That's no problem. I was to go on Harbourville tonight and see you tomorrow morning

Quite a district

Yes, an hour and a haIf by car. The hearing's at ten, that means i have to leave tomorrow morning at seven.

It's certainly be good to find some place to stay tonight

Well then, you'd better be off

Well?

Mrs Smith?

Well, who is she?

What?

Personal?
What?

Personal?

No, no, put her through

Yeah

Now, who are you?

If you can't be more precise than that
I'm not interested

A member of my family?

But who?

Hello?
Hello?

Hello?

Why don't you have
dinner with Carol tonight?

Yes, i know

Well, i have to go.

By the way, Frank

You're not been unfaithful to Carol, are you?

You're joking?
Of course

Yes
Of course.

You killed Julia Durer...

By killing Julia, you killed
the part of yourself, the part attracted to degradation and vice.

The conflict is been
resolved by an act of violence

a firm decision, all of which shows we had dealing exclusively with a liberating dream

Even the...our appearances in the paintings surrounding you and your house have a specific meaning of liberation

But..

What about the ones on the balcony?

The two hippies

They were part of you as well

You wanted witnesses for your crime forcing you to leave proof

This action has certainly produced in your subconsious

The removal of a block which will surely give us good results

Dr. Kerr, don't you think I
should somehow make it up to Julia Durer?

By Lambeth Palace road to Belgrave square
Arrive in ten minutes

Details as follows:
Name: Julia Durer, British national

When was she killed?
- Last tuesday, judjing by the body
During monday midnight, tuesday morning

Six to four that's Scolton's report
- You're right!

Well, twenty-four hours isn't a lot much time

Not if there was, it's tuesday and the body wasn't on the plate...
- And today is saturday.

Should be a law against finding bodies on a saturday.

Didn't a cleaning lady come to visit her lately?

Twice a week but she didn't
have the key

She didn't bother too much on Wednesday

Ms Durer was always getting off for a few days without letting her know

But this morning she noticed the bad odeur.
She ruined our week-end.

Good morning, Inspector.

Excuse me, Inspector Corvin? I'm
Lowel, of the scientific squad.

Since when?
- Last week.. I was in Animal Cruelty Division

Very encouraging!

Heroin. If anyone give themselves a
dose with that, they'd jump the sound barrier.

The boy has wit

Inspector, the body is in the other room.

Ask it to wait

Any other drugs?
- A bit of everything...

hashish, LSD, cocaine, marijuana
- What about the neighbors?

Oh, Ms Durer never speaked to any of them

In fact according to the cleaning lady, they
tried to avoid her

The neighbours, Brandon
Talk to every bloody one of them

But do it nicely

There's woman in one of the flats who headman Brighten's daughter

Alright, sir
Did you know this Durer?

I said
Did you know Julia Durer?

We certainly didn't know her.

Excuse me but I don't think
we'll be able to give you any help in this murder.

Murder?
I didn't say that it was murder

What makes you think that it was?

Oh, Come on, sergeant
The whole house is crowding with policemen

Murder squad, scientific squad, drug squad, and all the rest

Don't tell me that all this carry-on when someone slips on the banana skin and happens to split their skull

There are times however when we have to be sure of that somebody didn't leave a skin there on purpose

In any case, the murder was
committed on Monday late at night

or else on Tuesday morning or afternoon, probably Monday night

Do any of you remember anything out the way?

You know, screams, sounds of fighting

Out struggle

Monday night? No, just a thunder
Out struggle

Monday night? No, just a thunder

No, that was a storm

Do you?

Mrs Hammond
Mrs Hammond

No, i don't
Just a thunder

Well, if you think of anything at all
Doesn't matter how insignificant

Carol!

Carol!

Monday night

The night of the storm

The night...the night Frank went to
Harbourville

Yes

that night

Yes, I remember, because my windscreen wiper broke
And i had to stop

Julia Durer?

Yes

Of course

Yes
Right away

It's our neighbor, Julia Durer.

Is that the one who's aIways making so much
noise?
- She's been murdered.

I'm not surprised
- Joan says Carol is very upset.

But i don't see..

You'd better go to her Frank.
- Yes.

She's turned the pIace upside down.
She's gone crazy trying to find her fur...

The Gordon woman from
the third floor phoned.

She said JuIia Durer was strangIed,
found haIf-naked with a fur next to her.

You didn't bring the paper,
Frank? You aIways bring it.

The paper, CaroI? Oh yes,
I'm sorry I did bring it.

I must have put it somewhere,
I'II Iook for it Iater...

What are you trying to hide from me!
- CaroI! Stop thinking about it!

I'd Iike to...but it's not easy...
with everything going on over there.

Allo, Mrs. Hammond is dining, Mrs. Gordon.

Then don't bother her. TeII her
she can caII me back. I'II be home.

I need to taIk to her. I have to teII
her something very, very important.

Yes. Mrs. Gordon?

HeIIo, dear. Did I bother you? Have
you had a chance to read the paper?

No, I haven't read any of them yet. Why?

I gave you the wrong information...in
the confusion I guess I misunderstood...

That good-for-nothing, yes,
Durer, was not strangIed.

No, my dear, not at aII.
They stabbed herthree times,

each one of the stabs fataI. It
says so quite cIearIy in the paper.

At what time wouId you Iike the car, ma'am?
- Shut up, idiot!... Oh, sorry!

Two of them in the middIe of her chest
and one sIightIy beneath the first two.

And with a Ietter opener! Can you
imagine what a horror that was.

A beastIy murderer can't be .....

Carol!

Carol!

CaroI. What are you doing?
Did something happen?

The Ietter opener! Oh,
Frank, it's not possibIe.

Not possibIe that even my Ietter opener
has disappeared. I have to find it...

She was kiIIed with just that, a Ietter
opener. Just Iike I kiIIed her in the dream,

in the same way! Mrs. Gordon said she
was stabbed three times in the chest.

I stabbed her with the Ietter
opener three times in the chest too!

That's absurd, CaroI. Absurd!

Oh, Frank. HeIp me Frank!
HeIp me! I'm begging you!

Why do you want to see the body, Mr Hammond?

Well, for no specific
reason. She was our neighbor

That's alright. You really want to see it...Follow me.

Here, have a drink, it'II pick you up.
- Thanks.

This fur coat mean anything to you, Mr Hammond?

No

Your wife's Iooking for you, sir.
Carol?
She's in the hall.

Carol!

Inspector Corvin! There's something here i think you should see, sir.

Madam! Carol! You think you enjoyed it here?
Carol!
Come on, give me hand, get her out of here

They say the body was found in exactly the same position

She may just have imagined it

You can dismiss that. But what about the rest?

Could you find some excuse for getting them to show you Corvin's report?
You can dismiss that. But what about the rest?

Could you find some excuse for getting them to show you Corvin's report?

You'll recognise the fur coat
and that paper knife yourself.

That's ridiculous. There's no other word for it

We can find some details, anything.

There's must be some explanation: i wonder if someone's trying to drive her out of her mind.

Someone who is capable of guessing her dreams.

You really believe that?
Is it possible?

There's nothing even remotely possible in anything you've been telling me

You know, if she was my daughter i'd know exactly what to do

If somebody came to me with a story
Iike that I'd kick him off the place...

As i see it, my friend, this led is a direct out of the way this woman Durer lived

She's on the stage, took drugs, had friends that all walks alive, keep on questioning them and you'll find that some of them will start spilling

That's alright if that's what you want

They can find plenty to say

Those sort of people love talking

about anything at all

I doubt what you got anyway on that direction?

Well, what direction do you have in mind?

I don't know

The only sure thing we've got to go is another fingerprints.

The paper knife, the fur coat, the
white scarf, they're all covered with them.

What we need is to find the woman who owns it...
- Is it your intuition? Or do you have a good reason for saying it's a woman?

The fur coat didn't
beIong to the victim.

So you it belongs
to the murderer's...

But who's to say the cleaning lady
wasn't wrong about the coat.

True,
there's no label on it

And don't forget, my friend,
she didn't recognize the boots either.

And Julia Durer had them on.

They were brand new, you can see that by
the soles.They've just been bought.

Chief Inspector McCallard ... Yes, Inspector Corvin
is here with me... Oh Good! Splendid!

Come along, inspector.
It looks as all we've got is in the back.

Accidentally, it's a man

Bye, sweetheart

Name is Harry Smith, sir
Gives his age as 23 years old, height 6 feet, red hair. Irish.

And he says, he comes from Longford.
Name is Harry Smith, sir
Gives his age as 23 years old, height 6 feet, red hair. Irish.

Name is Harry Smith, sir
Gives his age as 23 years old, height 6 feet, red hair. Irish.

Checked the fingerprints?
Name is Harry Smith, sir
Gives his age as 23 years old, height 6 feet, red hair. Irish.

Name is Harry Smith, sir
Gives his age as 23 years old, height 6 feet, red hair. Irish.

No, not yet, sir
But he's confessed to it.
Name is Harry Smith, sir
Gives his age as 23 years old, height 6 feet, red hair. Irish.

No, not yet, sir
But he's confessed to it.

He's all yours, super intendant

So you
confessed, have you?

Well, Let us hear all about it, friend.
- I did it to avenge my brother George.

My brother George...
- Facts first!...

The inspector
wants to know how you killed her.

She was standing there, in
front of me, in her fur coat.

Her fur coat..
She had the coat on?

Oh sure
She had it done alright

the fur coat ...
the coat and the boots
All black they were

So i said to her: take it off, doll
So, she takes it off

Not a bloody stitch on!

She wasn't wearing a white silk scarf?.
- No no, nothing at all

Well...eh...
Only black panties and the boots.

She was beautiful, naked like that...
- Alright, alright, you've made your point

So, then i say to her:
'Remember my brother George?'

And I plunged her with dagger!

The paper knife?

The paper knife?
Oh no, i brought the paper knife there just to confuse the issue

It was George's dagger
I stuck it fair into her belly
Right up to the hilt

Then I twist it,
i twist it! i twist it!

You don't beIieve me?
You don't believe me
I can see it in your faces!

Then Iook. Look. Her guts, man
I've got her own bloody guts.
Well, What do you think of that?

Here

Hello, Britania...

No, it is my brother George!
It is my brother George!
Hello, Britania...

No, it is my brother George!
It is my brother George!

Keep up the good work

You! Will enjoy working in
AnimaI Cruelty Division

Carol, let's go

Carol?
Carol?

But what do you want to ask them?
If they happen to walk into your dreams?

Joan, please!...I'm going completely mad...

Carol, make up your mind!

All these people...
-Stay here

Well?

Nothing. How could you
think of it?

You mustn't let these dreams get the better of you.

There's one explanation.
They knew Julia Durer. They went
several times to her flat.

You've must have met them
when they were going in or coming out

Can't you even remember it yourself?

Did they tell you they knew Julia Durer?
I don't know if they did or not. It's all i guessed.

Joan!
Hi, Dave Berry

Now, here we have a photograph of the victim's body, and below it that is the murder weapon,

I..I would like you to turn your attention to discovery which we consider is very important to the case

It is this, inspector Corvin
The tweed sole of a shoe or bare foot will always leave a print even after wiping your feet thouroughly, if you...
if you understand me

And that prints can be picked up.

And it was raining that night.
- ExactIy!

So any person
that night left prints behind you see.

I want you now to take a look at that photograph taken with our special camera and as you see it very detailed

Now..now, look at the pins
They indicate exactly the footprints we found

As you see, they're covered wide end

Smart work.
- And nothing of no particular, inspector!

You mean somewhere among these are the prints of a murderer.
- No...

Why not?
- Well, I wouldn't say so, sir

In fact, in this photograph we've looked at
They're all over the place

Except here,
around the victim's bed.

In fact, in this area, inspector
there are no wet footprints whatsoever.

And that's where the body was.

Exactly, inspector
And as i already pointed out there are no wet prints anywhere around the bed

So even now conclude that none of these people
left footprints with bed of victim

So it's clear that none of them could have killed her

Unless, of course, they took their shoes off...

That is quite possible.
But there's of course a much simpler explanation

That the murderer's feet were dry
So they didn't leave any prints

It means he didn't come from the outside, but from the inside

Maybe not the flat, but the same buiIding.

This certain narrows the field a bit

All you have to do is check, Brannon

Like always of course, from top to the bottom.

Excuse me, i'm hoping you can help us
Just try to remember if you have seen this face before

Please look very carefully

Mrs Hammond

May i see it please?

Certainly, sir.

Never seen him before

Inspector, these are been blown up as
you requested

The thumb prints of a persons who handled the
photograph.

Ok, Carry on

Now, look carefully and you'll see that this one matches exactly the thumb print we found on the paper knife

There, you see
A perfect match.

Alan?
- Yes, inspector
- Well?

The thumb prints you've just seen is identical with that found on the paper knife. It's just been taken from a photograph marked with a letter B

And this one was a photograph handled by Mrs Carol Hammond.

Mrs. Hammond, remember that anything you say will be taken down and then be given an evidence

You want to know if I killed her!

Listen, Carol...

Forget i'm a lawyer, i'm asking you as your father
whatever you may have done, all i want is to help you to get out of this mess

But to do that i must know the exact truth

The truth...
- Please...

Father, there's only one thing i can tell you. One.
I wouldn't kill her!

That's all i wanted to know!

I didn't kill her.

When a judge grounds bail
if a figure that high

You got to have doubts about it.
- He's fortunate.

There's a bloody big war around me.
I can see anyway around it

But the evidence, inspector.
All that stuff is full of her prints

The paper knife, the fur coat are hers.

Yeah, there's a proof, alright.
The fingerprints

But not much of a motive.
- Well..

Do you know that Mrs. Hammond has been on psychoanalysis for some time?

That means she could escape punishment
if they succeed in passing it up she's mad.

I wouldn't know. But i do know if i can't find some real logical motive, i'll end up with have nuts myself.

By killing Julia, you killed
the part of yourself, the part attracted to degradation and vice.

The conflict has been
resolved by an act of violence
a firm decision, all of which shows...

Well. That should do, i think.

You see, Carol had no reason for the hate Julia Durer,
And, obviously, she wouldn't want her to be killed.

It was her ego.

And you expect us to convince a jury
that it wasn't Carol, it was her ego?

Very often, Mr. Brighten
The truth comes to light in very odd colours

And it's a duty of science to intervene..
well..in common sense

Yes
The facts all fit in with the Barthelmy case

The opinion of the experts was conlusive

The court accepted the view that
Arthur Barthelmy was...
when he killed his sister in a state of total unconsciousness

I remember that case

-Split personality...

So Arthur Barthelmy was acquitted!

All of which shows that we're dealing exclusively with a liberating dream.

A dream!...

Of course at the time l had believed that i was interpreting a dream.

Neither Carol nor l could have thought that
it was a tragic reality.

Carol is still convinced
it was a dream.

Yes, it's possible.

The images of what happend the other night
are stored in her memory, unreal element supplied by the fantasies of the unconscious, generally occured in dreams as symbols

Yes, like the green field and the bird that followed her around

Exactly. Take her love seeds with Julia Durer
which represents the love-hate relation

And then, probably, those two hippies...
Listen:

What about the ones on the balcony?
The two hippies

They were you as well

What did you mean by saying "very probably the two hippies"

Theoretically, they could also find a place on a list of real elements

You mean that they might have been witnesses to the murder actually can be did by my daughter

Split personality or not
then how do you explain the fact that they've never come blackmail her?

Give me a light please?

Thanks

When did Carol tell you?
Thanks

When did Carol tell you?

The last time i saw her in the clinic.

The idea of keeping her shut up in the clinic to wait for the trial

ln her condition she needs absolute quite and rest before getting back her strength

l can imagine the rest and quiet.

She'll just worry herself to death.

You see, she's been thinking about other case,
the ones like hers

By the way, Frank
How did she ever hear about Barthelmy?

She used to work in her father's
practice at the time of the Barthelmy case.

She's just graduated

And what does it meant for you?

He said that if she was in a practice, she'd
have made a great lawyer

But does he accept his
line of defense?

He didn't believe it. But he had to admit it.
That Barthelmy got off.

And you, Frank,
what do you think?

It really was most unfortunate, Mr. Hammond

And l do assure you that whoever
left that door open will be punished.

But i wonder if Mrs.
Hammond would mind being a little less curious.

Someone was chasing me...

lt was one of our male nurses.

Unintentionally gave you a fright

No... before that...
- I saw him...

Hallucinations!...

But, darling, nobody saw hippy wandering in the park
and, you know, they really did search the place

Well, i did
I did!
But, darling, nobody saw hippy wandering in the park
and, you know, they really did search the place

Well, i did
I did!

Hallucination actually means that one believes what one sees

But l wasn't even thinking of
hippy at that moment.

l was very quiet
Very relaxed

Alright! So you were quiet and relaxed
Sitting up there, in your chair

And, let's suppose you really saw him

Do you you know who he was?

He was the one with the red hair
The hippy you remember from your dream

That is the only reasonable explanation, you know.

Be calm, Mrs. Hammond, be calm.

But it was him. l tell
you. It was him!

l want the truth, Frank. How
long is this been going on?

You know i've met Deborah after a few days l arrived
in London. l was broke, completely broke.

She'd been very nice to me.

Remember, she asked you to take me to your chambers?

l asked you how long she has
been your mistress?

Two years.

You have a very good memory,
Frank. l'm sure you remember that

the day before the
murder, we were in here together

while i had a telephone call..a rather strange call that made me ask you a question.

Yes. You asked
me if l've been unfaithful to Carol.

And you then asked me if l was joking.

Maybe, l was joking
Frank, but you won't

What do you mean?
- Mm..Just try this for size as a theory.

Suppose that telephone
call came from Julia Durer,

That she knew about your
affair and she was blackmailing you.

Afterall, she didn't know that she only has to open her mouth and our professional association would've ended like that.

Nobody has ever blackmailed me.

No? Well, let's suppose, Frank

Afterall, it would've provided a plausible motive, wouldn't it?

For what? Killing Julia Durer?.. That's ridiculuous!

Well, is it? To kill Julia Durer
and put the blame on Carol.

That's crazy! You're
forgetting your Carol's fingerprints on the paper knife and a fur coat.

Well, it is Carol's fur coat and Carol's paper knife
That's crazy! You're
forgetting your Carol's fingerprints on the paper knife and a fur coat.

Well, it is Carol's fur coat and Carol's paper knife

It's perfectly natural that her fingerprints should be all over it.

But, Does that prove that it was Carol?
And could only have been Carol?

That talked her to the place where Julia Durer was killed

And the dream? You're
forgetting the dream!

Oh Yes, yes
- Carol was supposed to dream the murder while somebody else did it
And the dream? You're
forgetting the dream!

Oh Yes, yes
- Carol was supposed to dream the murder while somebody else did it

in exaclty the same way the murder was commited.
Dream telepathy!

Are you trying to tell me that Carol is some kind of a psychic?
- The dream...

Dr. Kerr has been good enough to let me have the tapes that...
his sessions with Carol.

So then i might prepare a defense on the basis of split personality

He thought i might find something useful
And, indeed, i think i had.

Listen to this:

I can remember the door.. the door opening...it's all so hazy now

Yesterday morning the whole thing was so clear...

Why didn't you make your notes as usual?

I could remember it so easily
I didn't need to make any notes

Dreams have a short life in the memory.
You should always write them down.

It's all so hazy now.
Yesterday morning the whole thing was so clear.

Why didn't you make your notes as usual?

Did you know that Carol kept a record of her dreams?

No...
- Oh yes you did, Frank,
and so did Joan and Deborah.

She wrote them on little bits of paper.
She kept them in the desk in her room

Any of you could have read them in any time.

And goodness knows how often many of you did.

And you could certainly have read her notes about
that particular dream.

A dream, Frank, just a
dream...

And having read them, you could have used them to create a murder.
A real murder.

for someone who only had to walk across the landing into this flat

I see your point.
It's quite possible.
for someone who only had to walk across the landing into this flat

for someone who only had to walk across the landing into this flat

And that someone would certainly have no trouble with taking a few things with him

In fact, three things: paper knife, fur coat, and a
white scarf.
- Right!
And that someone would certainly have no trouble with taking a few things with him

- Right!

That finally explains
why she was wearing these new boots.
She'd never had them on before.

The murderer put them on her.
That finally explains
why she was wearing these new boots.
She'd never had them on before.

The murderer put them on her.

Because she was wearing them in Mrs Hammond's dream.

So this person stabbed
her with the paper knife. Three times.
Dropped the paper knife, the fur coat and a white scarf beside her

And then, put on
her boots, black boots.

Do you really think all those details were written down in her notes!...

Perhaps, you should ask whoever wrote them
- Unless of course you wrote them yourself

Don't worry, she never kept her notes.
Sometimes they stayed there a few days and then she teared them up.

Have you ever happen to read them?

A few times.
Very interesting dreams they were too

It's hardly the time, Joan
- Did you know she went to bed with Julia Durer in her dreams?

Stop it, now!

Daddy, wouldn't it be better to tell me what it is?
- Can't you guess?

No

Did you read the papers this morning?
- No, not yet, why?

And you don't know the latest on the Durer's case?
- No, i don't

The police on the point of arresting someone who is under strong suspicion

Arresting? And it can't be Carol?!

Did they say who?

No! Not in the newspapers.
They haven't mentioned my name yet
-You?

Now you know what's the matter.

lf something doesn't happen...I..

Greenfield.
-Yes, sir!

Aren't you taking me home?

Greenfield is your home!

Look, you didn't kill Julia Durer,
but you don't know who did either.

lf you want to know,
Be at the Wendent's street catholic church
At 4 o'clock, ok?

Bring twenty quid with you.
Wendent street, catholic church.
4 o'clock, ok?

Drop the knife away, otherwise i'll put a bullet through you head!

Hello Jenny!

Get out of here...! What do you want?

Oh nothing,
I've got a date

The Red head told me to wait here for him

What's that for?
What are you doing?

Painting....

Wait for me, Robbie
I won't be long

Well, at least we now can be sure that the Red head isn't the ghost.

But flesh and blood.
- He's blood, alright.

And he has a very special reason for wanting to kill our friend Mrs Hammond

l should have had her followed and watched.

Check on every man with red
hair, don't let anyone to slip through.
Not even the Prince of Wales

Ok, sir!
Good thing we're not in lreland!

Yellow mark

Do you sell them?
- You want to buy it?

lf you do that little thing i asked you..

I've forgotten all about it
I told you

He may remember, old Redhead
- Where can i find him?

Didn't he tell you to come here and meet you?

lf you tell me he is
l will pay you twenty quid.

What do you remember
that so important?

I can't tell you over the phone!
- Anyone else knows about it?

No!
Nobody.

It is about Carol, but i didn't tell her because it would've driven her out of ther mind.

What's her to do with all this?

It was a person who told me a story about her.

It was some time ago,
I've forgotten all about it.

And this person, but i'm sure i can handle him,
he's always needing money for drugs, if you know what i mean.

Nobody needs to know anything.

You stay out of this, Joan!
That's what the police are for.

But i'm the only one who can get the proof.

Oh i know, it'll make them suspect someone else in our family
but not you, daddy, not you! You'll be clear, and that's what matters!

Joan, you've mustn't!
-Don't worry, daddy!

Anyway i must go now, i've got to meet the person in Richmond's park
and then i'll have the positive proof of who really did kill Julia Durer!

Mrs Hammond!
- Do you know when this story of blackmail first came to light?

A telephone call to my father, of course.

Exactly! Do you mind?
- Help yourself.

From someone calling herself Mrs. Smith

Who we would be able to identify as Julia Durer.

I'm sorry.
Do you believe that your husband knew about the phone call?

Possibly.

But you're not sure?
- No, lnspector.

Did your father mention it to you?
- Yes, he did.

Hello, Inspector

How nice of you to come.

Why didn't you call me, Carol?

Oh i think at this stage your daughter
can talk to me without the presence of her lawyer.

You know her, didn't you?
Answer me!
- You're wrong, it wasn't me!

But you knew her!
You knew her!
You know her, didn't you?
Answer me!
- You're wrong, it wasn't me!

But you knew her!
You knew her!

How was you able to walk into Alexander Palace?
Because of Val Halloway?

Come on now, you may as well tell us.
How did you get the keys. He gave them to you, didn't he?

I don't know what you're mean.
Never set eyes on him. Never!

Well, that's not what he said.
Why didn't you tell the whole truth about it?

Alright, we'll tell you.
-You wanted to do a ceremony of your own in there

You've gave him five pounds for them.

And a weekend with your girlfriend.
-Well, if you have anything to add?

Well, have you?

He said that because he hates me.
- Really?

Yes, yes, that's true...
- Say it again!

He hates me!
- So you do know him!

No, he hates everyone
because he's hunchback

And how do you know he's
a hunchback if you don't know him?

Everybody knows he's a hunchback!

Dammit, tell us the truth.

lf you give me what i need, i'll tell you everything.

And his reply was as follows..

-Yes, that's true. He is the one.
- He killed Joan and he tried to kill you daughter.

And Julia Durer.

No.
It wasn't him.

At the moment there're two people
who know who committed that murder.

The murderer
...and you?

Julia Durer was murdered by the
person she was blackmailing.

Unless she was not blackmailing your
son-in-law, you see what i mean.

l'm sorry l've put you on the wrong track, inspector.
- No, that's alright.

Goodbye.
- Goodbye...

Goodbye

Sir, may i ask why you wanted to think you've found the murderer?
I mean Julia Durer's murderer.

Because l have, Brandon.

And i would have a mathematical certainty if it weren't for one contradiction!

Just one.

Miss Belt,
Would you phone Dr. Kerr and let have Dr. Kerr along too at the Durer's flat.

Right

Talk! Talk!

Ok, ok

- Well, they followed us there

All the way to the old theatre,
Jenny and me, but when we've got there, they didn't both come

Only the girl

Look at that lady and tell me
if you've ever seen her before.

We get to see all kinds!
Where have you seen this one?

At Julia Durer's.
- We haven't been around there for a couple of weeks...

Two weeks... was it at night?
Try to remember

Night
- Was it raining?

Yes, it was raining and...thundering

Why though?

That's the very night.

Well then, no.

Not even we've had her in front of our nose.
What are you expect us to do with all that acid inside us?

We were filled with acid...from
our heads...to our toes....

And you know something,

under the effect of acid,
i look at you here and all i see is the red dot, or a galloping horse.
And you know something,

under the effect of acid,
i look at you here and all i see is the red dot, or a galloping horse.

You don't remember anything at all about that night?
- Yeah, i remember!

Yes, i remember.
I've seen that night a lizard in a woman's skin.

Shit!
- No, beautiful. Just beautiful!

Did you climb up there?

Might have

Yes, i think we did

Give us a rest from these, man
We went away next morning

We didn't see Julia,
we didn't know she was dead

We don't read newspapers.
All a lot of crap.

We've only heard two or three days later that she'd been down in

Well, get on with it!

What i mean eh...
Could it've been me..or her
Anything's on the cards when you are on the trip

You're capable of doing anything

Some take a jump and think they're flying

You can kill someone and not knowing nothing about anything

And so?

We've never said a word to anyone we were there that night.

The girl was the only one we told.

That bloody old theatre

Only those two women knew

And one of them was the accused.

When we got the news that you're gonna arrest somebody else..
well, i thought of...i thought..

And the time has come to shut those two mouths
...And you did

One of them, anyway.

But you had no trouble killing Joan.
She even came looking for you...

Joan went looking for him because she thought of their
presence in this flat would prove of your innocence.

Yes, she told me on the phone

lf these two had been in this flat
that might was the murder've been commited like your wife dreamed.

Then Julia Durer could not have been
killed the next day by someone who've read that note.

The brand new black boots with brand new soles
were given her by you two

Yeah, we wanted to bring something for Julia.
We gave her the boots.

I have a quiestion to ask you Dr. Kerr

Is it possible to lie on a psychoanalisys couch?

It all depends on what you call lying

Oh, Come on,
I mean hiding the truth.

Dr. Kerr, suppose for instance,
There was another person here that night in this flat.

And...Carol wanted to hush it up

Yes, of course

lt's for you, lnspector. lt's Brandon

Sorry for keep you waiting, inspector.

Edmond Brighton has commited suicide.

Here,
He left the note confessing to the murder of Julia Durer.

Here's we're waitng for the coroner to remove the corpse.

Well, lnspector, at this point l believe that the inquiries closed.

l had the greatest admiration for your father.
Now all i feel is a deepest pity.

lf l only knew why he did it...
- But you do know, Mrs. Hammond.

We both know.
Remember that last time l came to see you?

Your father came into the room while we were talking.

And come in see heard what i was asking you
and what you answered.

I'm sorry, do you believe your
husband knew about that telephone call?

Possibly...
- But you're not sure?
- No, lnspector.

Did your father mention it to you?
- Yes, he did

Yes, i remember

It wasn't your father, if he have had
told you he would certainly told you your husband was present.
That's a detail you could no escape.

Not your husband, Deborah, nor Joan...

No, it wasn't any of them.

Well then, Mrs. Hammond, who?

l don't remember...
- It could only have been one person...

Mrs. Smith,
Julia Durer!

But i've never spoke a word to that woman in my life.
- Except in your dreams.

ln real life you didn't know Julia Durer
and so far we had no clues that can make us believe anything else.

But now we have something.
Your psychoanalysis!

Your sessions with Dr. Kerr

Well, Inspector
Can i help you?

This may sound absurd, but is it possible for neurotic
to come to you with her problems and then try to hide the truth?

Quite possible

But in that case it would leave us with a new and repressed tangle of problems.

You were so mixed up with Julia Durer that you were scared.

ln real life, Mrs. Hammond,
not in your dreams.

You were quite sure you wouldn't been mixed up in her death
because there never've been a whisper of this relationship of yours.

You went to her that night, quite sure that
she'd be alone. And you killed her.

You only noticed the two hippies afterwards.

When you saw them, it was too late.

What you couldn't have noticed
that the hippies were filled up with acid.

They didn't see you.
You didn't know they were blind witnesses.

They didn't know who you were, of course.

But later they could have indentified you.
And accuse you.

So you had to start that alibi.

Well,
It could've got you off.

It could've make the court believe in the case of schizofrenia.

That's why you invented your dream.

You invented that dream to tell Dr. Kerr a sort of lie

For your alibi to take route

You found yourself in the hands of grasping and scrupulous woman.
Wasn't that it, Mrs Hammond?

That telephone call to your father,
is about you.

lt could only have been about you.

Mrs Smith here,
you are going in for politics, i hear, Mr. Brighton

You should be careful about scandals on the seamy side of life.

l have a bit of news to sell either to you or the newspapers
about someone in your family, i'm sure..

l'll give you the money.

Your father refused to admit
that you've comitted murder.

He wouldn't hear of it.
That's why he was dead against basing his defence on mental abberation.

That's why he insisted on looking for another possibility
until he found out the truth

You committed murder in full consciousness, Mrs Hammond

You are nothing more or less than a murderess.

And that's why your father took his own life.
