Listen to this...

Tangier-Larache: 180 km.

Larache-Rabat: 90 km.

Rabat-Casa, with refreshment stop in Mohammedia, of course.

90 kilometres and return via Volubilis.

My bill, please.

Here...

My suitcase.

Hey, they changed the receptionist.

Good morning. I'm Mrs Delerue.

- Delrue with 2 Ls? - No, with one L.

- "Delerue", then. - Delerue, with an accent.

Ah, with an accent, is something else.

Did you have a reservation?

- We've been coming for years. - Ms Edith isn't here?

Guillaume, go get Ms Edith.

- Can't you be careful? - Alright...

Ah, Mrs Delrue... we've been expecting you.

Oh, and Cecile! My God, she's grown up.

She's a real girl, now.

- You must be tired. - No, we enjoy the train.

Next year, we'll have planes.

- Good, eh? - Yes.

Give me the keys. 428 and 280.

Different floors?

Yes, Cecile isn't afraid anymore.

I've had the bathrooms done up.

They're bigger now.

That's a pretty outfit!

Just one annoyance... the lift is out of order.

I put you in the dining room.

- It's quieter. - Thanks.

- See you later. - Thanks, goodbye.

Do you have a room?

What's the name?

Yes...? Hello?

- Hello? - Hello, Elisabeth?

- Yes. - It's me, are you okay?

- Yeah, sure. - Have a good trip?

Yes, a bit long.

Sweetheart, I can't make it next weekend...

- I'll certainly make the following one. - Yes.

- Cecile's with you? - No, she's on another floor.

- You don't need anything? - No, nothing.

- Okay, goodbye. - Goodbye.

- Michele... 2 crosses. - Francoise... 1 cross.

- Claudine... 3 crosses. - What are the crosses for?

One cross, I kissed her.

2 crosses... I took off her bra.

4 crosses...

4 crosses, I fucked her.

Yeah, but there are no 4 crosses.

Hey, look.

Not bad.

- That's the redhead I told you about. - A looker, isn't she?

I saw her with the dishwasher from the Continental.

No boobs.

That's ugly, but I don't care.

- You're not sensual. - As much as you!

But I appreciate their face, their eyes, their mouth.

- They count, right? - Yeah.

Without boobs, I switch off.

- Hi. - Hi, sweetie.

Meet Jojo, a pal of mine.

Your pal's a jerk.

We'll go see it one evening.

We should go to Colombie one day. Your father would like that.

Do you think there's anything to see there?

Our keys, please.

Yes, the lift is still out of order.

- What are you doing this afternoon? - Wander round... buy some books.

Fine... see you at the hotel this evening.

Sure.

I think that young man's staring at you a bit too keenly.

You're wrong, Mummy dear.

Oh, my vanilla slice! You could be careful, eh?

Why walk half in the gutter?

I like to hop along.

And on your hands?

Jojo! Oh!

What's up with him today?

If you say "Delerue", there are 2 Ls.

No, I apologise, but if there is only one L...

I say "Delerue".

What's the girl's name who just went up?

I just said... "Delerue".

- Hello, Hugo. - Hello, Jojo.

- How are you? - Supa-dupa!

- Hello, Son. - Hi, Dad.

- Jean Pierre. - Hi, Georges.

- Mom. - My son.

- Don't you kiss your sister-in-law? - Hi, gorgeous.

That's my dirty laundry.

Is my blue striped shirt done?

So now I'm to take in washing?

Yes, your shirt's ironed.

Try to be home for dessert... custard pudding.

Well...

There�s a tourist bus arriving this afternoon.

I'll try to come around 5 o'clock.

A load of tourists...

Did you see the look on his face?

Watch out, girls!

Wait a second... Hey, wait, Jojo!

Well, that's his age, right?

- He's your son, after all. - He's your brother.

Take your time.

Ah, you're still here.

Here's to love!

Excuse me.

Don't go away.

Ah, carrots! They'll give you pink thighs!

Alain, clear this off. I have to see to everything.

What desserts do you have?

Pineapple with kirsch...

fruit, homemade caramel cream, homemade chocolate mousse.

Do you have any homemade pastries?

- Yes, a peach tart. - One for me.

The pineapple, please.

What are these scrambled eggs?

You're not making an omelette. Go slower.

One sole Veronique, and one rock lobster coming up!

- Jojo, a pineapple and a pie. - Don't skimp on the kirsch.

It's for 9.

What's 9? Nothing, boss.

I was feeling a little hungry.

"A little hungry," you idiot.

- Ah, that�s very pretty. - Thanks.

- Did you order a vanilla slice? - Maybe they're out of tarts.

It�s possible, I guess.

- What are we doing this afternoon? - Are we going to the dance-hall?

I can't. I promised to have dessert at home.

Aren't you ever going to outgrow those folks of yours?

I'll be alone anyway. Claudine's not here.

- She works until 8. - So spread your wings.

- Spread my wings. - Here, come on, Lafrite.

Would you like me to call the orchestra in?

Pardon.

Oh my god...

If I'd done this at the Negresco!

- Thanks. - Don't mention it.

- Hi Jojo, do you have stomach ache? - No no no.

- Give me a kiss then, come on. - Alright.

- Shall we do something tonight? - I have something on.

She's on to you, right? What's up with you?

I hardly know her.

You can talk to whoever you want.

She's Alain's girlfriend, the one who brought the vanilla slice.

It was good, very good.

I work in the supply office of the hotel.

I take care of the orders, for wine, and all that.

- Your girlfriend's not bad. - She's my my mother.

- So, this evening? - No.

So tomorrow?

- Maybe, I think I have nothing. - OK, then see you tomorrow.

But we didn't say where.

So, tomorrow at 3, near the kiosk.

Alright.

I read that a swan pecked a woman to death.

Do you think it's true?

Swans are very ferocious, you know.

It's strange to be so beautiful and ferocious at the same time.

No, it's not strange.

Would you marry a guy who was sentenced to death?

What question!

I think marriages in prison are stupid.

- You want some? - No, it makes you thirsty.

When I was little, I always wanted to live in a big house...

with a man who I'd devote my life to.

- That's what you did, isn't it? - Yes, in a way.

- Well, I'm off. - Where?

Do some shopping.

- He'll follow you. - I bet he won't.

He will.

Miss...

Thanks.

What's your first name?

- Thank you so much. - For what?

I wanted to talk to you, you did it for me.

- I spoke to you? - Yes.

Oh, are you sure?

Um, pretty sure, yes.

What did I say to you?

"What's your first name?"

Elisabeth.

- Something wrong? - No, it's OK.

- Want a drink? - No no.

You don't need to worry because a woman asks your first name.

Giovanni.

Been waiting long?

No, I just got here.

Hey, you live in a strange place.

Sun, rain, rain, sun. It's no fun.

You know, in winter, it's often minus 10.

But it's nice, with snow and ice.

Yes.

You still haven't told me your name.

Cecile... and you? Jojo?

No, I'm Georges.

I wanted to be a conductor when I was little.

I always beat time to my radio, when there was music on.

Why don't you go to the conservatory?

Because my parents think it's not serious.

What do you plan to do later?

You can't stay forever in a kitchen.

For now, I'm working to buy a motorcycle.

Afterwards, I'll specialise and I'll leave.

To where?

I don't know, I'll leave.

Would you like a coffee?

If you want.

Here, look.

You see the green one there? It's a 500.

There are 3 cylinders, 3 carburettors, disc brake.

It goes really fast... it must be 200-220.

- Is that the one you're buying? - No, it costs way too much.

I think I'll take the 350.

Do you see the red one there?

Pretty good, eh?

So, see you tonight, after work?

No I can't... I'm going to the movies with my mother.

- Tomorrow if you want. - Yeah.

Hey, you'll watch tonight, under your door.

What?

You will see.

"If I loved you, and you loved me... would I ever love you! Jojo"

Have you seen my red shirt?

Oh, Alan!

The red one with flowers.

I don't know, pal. Under that crap maybe.

Hey, what about me?

- Shut up, I need a break. - Ah, already.

I don't know what's wrong.

My stomach's in knots. Maybe I ate too much.

Have a slug of cognac, it'll make you digest.

Marie Therese, I present my friend Georges.

- Hello, Marie Therese. - What's with him?

Marie-Therese is the most beautiful!

- You louts! - Go ahead, Jojo!

Come on, hurry up, huh?

So many people look at each other like china dogs...

wanting to talk together but not not daring.

You think I make a habit of such introductions?

- No. - However...?

- I think exactly the opposite. - Oh well, you're right.

I am very shy and extremely serious.

- Yeah? - Yes.

- I saw that right away. - I hope so.

How many women have you approached in your life?

Several hundred?

You're the first one I've approached.

- I was sure of it. - Oh, how was that?

Women talking to men, never do it that way.

How do they do it?

They ask for directions...

a lost bag...

a match.

Goodbye.

It was nice talking with you. Enjoy your holiday.

Wait!

You seem to know a lot of things about me.

- Except one. - Which is?

It's that you're the only reason that I'm here.

Goodbye.

- Dimitri has arrived. - Dimitri?

I told you about him... The decorator who's a medium.

Fancy a seance this evening, in my apartment?

If you've never tried it, it's time you did.

Come on... on holiday, you have to have fun.

Make sure your fingers are touching.

Your thumbs together too. Now... concentrate.

Spirit, are you there?

Answer, spirit!

There is an unbeliever amongst us.

It's me, yes.

Very well.

If you're willing, we'll try a little experiment.

I'm going to ask a question that only you know the answer.

What for example?

A first name, perhaps.

Whose first name?

Of somebody who I just met.

- Be careful, concentrate. - Attention.

Spirit, please. The first letter of this first name.

A.B.

C.D.

E.F.

G.

The first letter is G.

- How do you know? - The table hit 7 times.

Attention, second letter, Please.

Attention.

A.

B.

C. D.

E.

F.

G.H.

I.

The second letter is I.

G, I.

Excuse me, I want to go home.

A first name that starts with "GI", what could it be?

- Gisele? - Gilbert?

- Gilles. - Ginette.

Are we asking for the third letter?

No, it's too late.

Sir, please, do you want to come?

Attention, we're going to ask another question.

Shall we call Edith?

- If you want to. - Attention.

Edith, please.

Edith, do you want to join us?

Come forward, Edith, please.

I didn't see you this morning.

I'm sorry, I had work.

Feel like a stroll?

No thanks, I'm very happy here.

May I?

What kind of work do you do?

It's very special.

- In the hotel? - No, no, no connection.

- It's curious. - What?

A young man like you, not bad physically.

Are you all alone in this place?

No family? No friends?

All alone. What do you do?

I told you... I'm here because of you.

- It's not a job. - No.

It's a passion.

Italian, in any case.

By the chances of birth.

Right now, my heart is in Vitelle.

- Where is yours? - Oh, everywhere.

- Mrs Elisabeth, is that you? - Yes.

You're wanted on the phone.

- Me? - On the phone, yes.

Over there.

Hello yes. Hello?

I have a long distance call for you. Hold on, please.

Elisabeth, it's me. I had to leave suddenly.

But... but where are you?

I'm very far away, but I wanted to tell you...

I absolutely had to tell you that you're tender, tragic, exciting, dreamy.

These few days that we spent together...

an enchantment, a marvel.

You are unforgettable, incomparable.

I didn't think that it would ever happen to me.

You made me this...-

Hello? Hello?

I was cut off.

Not from this end.

How did he know I was here?

Who told him? Where was he calling from?

I don't know. Paulette answered.

- Paulette? Paulette what? - Me, Madam.

So...?

I was told... "There's a lady in white passing in the street.

"She�s Elisabeth. Go fetch her."

I told the boss. With advances in technology...

It's absurd. Completely absurd. Don't you see? Why did he leave?

We don't know.

We're very sorry.

Okay, how much do I owe you?

- Nothing, absolutely nothing. - I hope it's not serious.

No, it's not, thank you.

Would you like a drink?

- You've been running. - Yes.

I wanted to get here as soon as possible.

- Is the post office far away? - No, over there.

If you want to leave, leave. What does it matter to me?

I'm leaving all the time.

For once I want to stay, don't chase me away.

Are you leaving in search of something or to run away?

I don't know.

May I help you?

A bottle of dry white, please.

Well chilled, with two glasses.

- Paulette. - Yes Madam.

If someone calls me, you say I left.

- Left for where, Madam? - Abroad.

To join the man who just called me.

I wish you wouldn't ask anymore questions now.

After all, you're only here for 2 or 3 weeks.

Anyway, when this is over, you'll leave.

So...

Why waste time telling me who I am...

what I do for a living...

It's rare for a man to not like talking about himself.

None of these questions matter.

What does matter?

What we're going to do this evening.

So, where are you taking me?

If we knew, there'd be no point in going there.

- Excuse me madam. - No harm done.

Marcel!

A very well-bred gentleman, eh?

- What time is it? - 4.30.

I have to run. See you tonight.

How do you know the time without a watch?

Who said I knew the time?

- No, no, the whisky is for. - Thank you.

The tea is for me.

Well, the champagnes?

Quickly, 3 champagnes.

- Good evening, ladies. - Good evening, Sir.

I can offer you a little something?

Why little?

Alright... a large cognac, a large whisky.

Ah, I don't drink alcohol.

A large fruit juice, maybe?

Nor am I allowed sugar.

- A cigarette? - Gladly.

Please.

- You have a light? - Of course.

Thank you for your little something.

My little sister.

Good evening, little sir.

Go to bed. Tomorrow's Colombey. We get up early.

- You'll wake me? - Yes.

I'll be back.

Hey, Cecile.

Where are you going?

- Can I buy you a drink? - No, I don't want anything.

- Did someone die? - Who knows?

- Cecile... - I'm going to bed.

Tomorrow we're going on a tour, early.

I'll meet you here tomorrow night?

Or we meet outside... because of the boss?

Okay, Joe. See you tomorrow evening.

569.

What are you doing?

I'm saying words of love to you in Morse code.

But... where are we?

Here.

You're a bit crazy, eh?

It reminds me of something that I liked... a phrase.

I think it's the title of a film or a song.

How does it go?

Fluster me tonight.

You have such a fragile neck.

Women always have something fragile.

That doesn't bother me, not at all.

Ah, that doesn't bother me at all, at all, at all, at all.

I could be a strangler.

You could.

You're a little crazy.

No, don't turn off the headlights.

Why did you get married?

- A lot of people get married. - Why with him?

Well, don't complain. Without him, you wouldn't be here.

I am not complaining.

When I was your age, it wasn't the same thing.

A girl had to get married, that was it.

My mother raised me with this idea...

"One day you'll get married."

And your father?

I was the least of his worries.

He organised the house, decided everything...

and went back to his business.

A bit like dad today.

Ah, your father.

Your father was the first boy who took me to the cinema.

That counts.

He persuaded my mother to let me out, at your age.

So we used to go to the Palace Cinema in Vienna.

He always bought me chocolate-covered ice-creams.

And I said to myself "If I marry him, I'll go to the cinema every day."

And even my life will be like a movie.

There are films that end badly.

Do you mean, with a wedding?

True.

Have you had any lovers?

That's a question you'd never have asked me a year ago.

You didn't answer me.

I don't have to answer to you.

Did I ever ask you that question?

You look tired this morning.

Liar.

If I was unhappy with someone, I would leave.

Oh, I thought about that.

Often?

- All women think about it. - Why didn't you leave?

- Wasn't it you? - What about me?

You were there, I took care of you. What would you think?

If I had a child, I could take care of it alone.

Easy to say.

Sometimes I fear you'll get married like me... too early, too young.

We're waiting for you.

Good evening.

I only have one bottle left.

If you see Roland, tell him to send me a case.

All right.

Everything OK, Cecile?

Yes.

The Paris lovers...

sleep to my song

In Paris, lovers love each other in their own way

The refrains that I play for them more beautiful than sunny days

They're full of spring of spring

And spring's about love

You know, Cecile, all those songs are so beautifully sad...

like a downpour on a spring day.

Cecile, you know why they call her Edith?

Because of Edith Piaf.

If she heard me up there, she must be laughing.

To you Edith...

Here's to you, little sparrow.

Well, Jojo, have you lost something?

No, Madame Edith.

Good evening.

Come on, let's not stand here out front.

- Where are we going? - You'll see.

What are you running for?

Come on.

Maurice, you won't forget to turn off the ceiling lights?

So, was the bus tour good?

- Oh, you know, Colombey... - But Les Vauches is not bad.

Lakes fascinate me.

I always imagine that people live at the bottom...

and come up from time to time to look, and get some fresh air.

I don't like lakes.

I never swim in them.

I'm a bit cold. Could we drink something hot?

All right. Come on.

I'm coming.

No... just time to say goodbye.

Oh, no, I won't have anything! Absolutely nothing.

Tea for two!

Me too, I started with tea.

At first, there were 2 of us drinking the tea.

And then, one day, I found myself all alone...

with a cup of verbena.

So I ordered myself a herbal tea chaser...

2, 3.

And now, I'm addicted to herbal tea forever.

Come on, kiss each other. Think of nothing else.

And drink your herbal tea... It cools quickly.

Next time we'll go somewhere else.

At the bottom of a lake, it'd be more peaceful.

Coming?

What time did your mother tell you to be home by?

I didn't tell her I was going out.

See you again, Vittel.

Hold this. Watch...

See you again Vittel... Vittel, Vittel, Vittel!

Come on. Here, have your drink.

Have you had many lovers?

What?

Have you had many lovers?

That's a question everyone's asking me lately.

I already told you that I'm a very serious woman.

- And very shy. - Yes, very shy.

How many does that make?

Guys...? Let me think.

Why did you bring me here?

Because I love the sound of it.

Reminds me of the first girl that I ever kissed.

- The daughter of a projectionist? - No.

She was crazy about cinema and broke like me.

So we listened to our films from outside the projection booth.

- Was it a great love? - Yes.

- The first. - Oh...

Come on.

Are you taking me to your place tonight?

- And my question? - What question?

Have you had many lovers?

What a question!

More, please!

- Please. - Yes?

My key.

- I thought you were... - Pardon?

- Good evening, Mrs Delerue. - Dellrue.

Ah yes, with 2 Ls.

Delerue, Delrue, Larue.

Such a handsome man.

A little wine?

More... more!

- Again? - Again.

- Keep going. - It'll overflow.

There you are... That brings good luck.

Coming?

Come down, come on.

Have a drink.

Where are you taking me?

A surprise.

We're going to a girlfriend's house. You coming?

Come on, get on.

In Joan of Arc's time, kids played here.

They danced, they sang, and had fun on the grass there.

And Joan came here with other girls.

Do you think she ever flirted?

Some say she had children.

This is a miraculous fountain.

It's called the Fountain of the Fevered.

It healed sick people.

Here, have a drink. You'll see.

- So? - It feels good.

Coming?

We'll be fine here.

- Have you ever slept with a boy? - What's it matter to you?

Just wondering.

What would you think?

Well, the girls in Paris have more chances than out here.

I don't think. so because here, there's the forest, the fields.

While in Paris, you're never alone.

So you believe that I've already made love?

- Yes. - Well, you're wrong.

I decided not to make love before turning 15.

- And when's your birthday? - Day after tomorrow.

And 1 and 2, slowly.

And 2 and 3.

So my little boy's making progress?

He's learning.

- Really, you're very patient. - Ah, I like the water.

It's beautiful to swim. I also like swimming.

Do I scare you?

A little.

Can you tell me why?

No.

With you, I tell myself that it might be worth it.

Worth trying... at least for a while.

Trying what?

It's how long it lasts that's the problem.

A while...

3 weeks, 3 months, 3 years? And then? What after that?

lt'd be nice knowing in advance how much longer such things go on.

And at the same time, I'd rather not know.

Yeah.

Makes it easier.

Sometimes I feel that everything is far in the past...

That you are just a memory.

- Pleasant? - Like all memories.

We'll sit over there.

2 hot chocolates, please.

I like the rain, it washes everything away.

It washes away all the dust, all the twigs...

Everything that's ugly, everything that's dirty...

even sins.

Do you believe in sins?

No, I'm not talking about sins as in religion.

But what's ugly... what's fake.

You know whatever we do, we mustn't lie to each other.

I often saw my mother, my father and then others...

tell lies... to hurt...

..to please...

We mustn't start doing the same thing.

We should stop talking.

Did you feel it?

Yes. It was as if you flew right into my head.

And I'm never leaving.

Thanks.

Shit, it must be 5 o'clock... I have to go to work.

See you tomorrow at the lake at 3 o'clock?

Ah, here he is!

Hurry up, kiddo.

Come on, sing us a song.

Come on, quickly! Go ahead.

Dear daddy, today is your birthday.

Mum told me you weren't here.

Oh, that's stupid.

Isn't he cute!

- Your turn, Dad, you sing one. - The Neapolitan one. A Neapolitan song!

Yes, come on, hurry up.

It's also stupid.

I have to go. He hasn't tried the bike yet.

If it'd been up to me, he wouldn't have one.

Jojo! Put on your helmet.

- What are you fishing for? - I'm not fishing for anything.

I come here for the peacefulness.

And to spend the days quietly, without my wife.

She never stops talking.

And when you come home empty-handed...?

She hates fish, anyway.

Oh, that's not good. That's not good at all.

It's not even fresh.

Anyway... I'm fed up!

It needs more kirsch. Add a bit more.

That's enough, slowly!

I'm so tired.

Is that for me?

- I'll be with you very soon. - You're too kind.

And there you go.

- It's pretty. - Thanks.

Ein Moment!

Gute Nacht!

What are you playing?

Good evening.

Hey, Cecile!

You scared me. What are you doing?

Nothing, I was waiting for you.

So, are you spying on me?

No, I just wanted to see you at least once today.

Why didn't you come to the lake?

Because I couldn't.

And why didn't you come this evening?

I couldn't.

Yesterday, it was great at the ice cream parlour...

And today, we're like everyone else.

Let's stop, Jo.

I'm happy you're here.

Me too.

- You're trembling. - No, I'm just cold.

- That better? - Yes.

Is your father a carpenter?

No, a bespoke cabinetmaker.

He's sculpting figures on the arms of chairs.

Shall we go, one night?

We'll go one night.

Come in, don't be afraid.

- Wood smells good. - Especially the varnish, I prefer it.

Hey, my dad, he loves boxing.

Come see, Cecile.

What is it?

My insect collection.

It's my little brother's now. You know, Francois.

I loved it.

It's funny, crickets, grasshoppers, all that.

Here, look at this.

That's a cicada.

You know... I found a cicada here in summer.

The teacher didn't believe me.

And what is this one?

Be careful, it's fragile. It's a mole cricket.

It's funny... It looks like a bulldozer.

Coming?

Does your father also make coffins?

Well yes, when there are deaths in the area.

And does he put the people in them?

Oh no.

In the coffins of the rich, is there lining?

Yes... padding.

So it costs more.

And there are handles in silver on the sides.

Would you be afraid of dying right away?

Why would I die first and not you?

I was just curious.

So, would you be afraid?

Yes... No... Well, I don't know.

It's so incredible to think that life would go on without me.

I'd think of you all the time.

I will always see you when you complained...

when your vanilla slice fell on the ground.

Can't imagine you dead.

- What is it? - Breakfast, Madam.

Just a moment, please.

Come in.

- Hello Madam. - Good morning.

- You ordered for 2. - Yes of course.

That doesn't surprise them?

No, they must believe that the local air whets my appetite.

I appreciate a woman who cares about her breakfast.

- It's good? - Yes.

They are becoming more and more rare.

Yes, hello, hello?

Excuse me, I very much wanted to hear your voice.

I don't even know what time it is.

10 o'clock, I think.

Well, forgive me, but I couldn't help calling.

Well, it doesn't matter. Are you doing well?

Yes, very good.

Forgive me for waking you. Go back to sleep, my dear.

Yes goodbye.

And if I decided to leave with you?

To abandon everything?

I haven't ask you to.

You could've.

And what would you have answered?

Are you asking me or not?

Would you like me to ask you?

Who asks the question, you or me?

Nobody asks questions.

So no one gives answers.

- Who is it? - It's me.

I thought I'd have breakfast with you.

Just a moment, darling.

Yes, come in.

- Am I bothering you? - No not at all.

All okay? You slept well?

Sit down, come on. Would you lie something?

- No, I think... - Should I order you something?

- Can I take your Rimmel? - My... my what?

I'll give it back to you later.

I'll be going.

- Why my mascara? - It's my birthday tomorrow.

Come on... Stay there, girls.

I don't know what's wrong. I have a pain in the gut.

- You might be pregnant. - No, I drank too much whisky.

It's because of Alain. I'm still an object to him.

He speaks to me as if we were married, then I take revenge.

- But it's you who's sick. - Yes, I know, it's stupid.

Come on, don't worry. Here they are.

Is your daughter having a nice holiday?

Yes. She's having a little flirt, like me.

Why not grab pleasure when it's there?

- That's what I'm doing. - No.

Even when you laugh, when you're making love...

you're thinking about tomorrow or elsewhere.

Especially "see you tomorrow".

- You don't love me. - What would you know?

Okay, I'll leave you, Dad.

Say, Jojo.

I paid the deposit on the motorcycle...

And you haven't made any payments?

I thought about it, but forgot.

You forgot, you forgot, so what?

You better take care of the payment, son. I promised.

Otherwise he'll be telling people we don't pay our debts.

What's wrong with you, kid? Tell me.

You're in love?

- Yes. - You're lucky.

When I was your age, I was in love.

I sometimes came home at 7 in the morning.

I met your grandfather, as he was going to work.

He was heating coffee.

He'd say to me... "Drink this, it'll buck you up!"

Wonderful.

Off you go, son.

Don't forget the payment.

- All right. - And wear your helmet.

I'm fine.

- Put on your helmet! - You, put on your belt!

I had him bring up a ham and vegetable salad.

- That's enough? - She's just overtired.

Change of air and food.

She'll be fine for her birthday tomorrow.

It's her birthday... I'd forgotten.

We'll surprise her. Does she like chocolate cake?

Yes.

Since you're alone, I'm going to have lunch with you.

- Alain, bring me a dish of the day. - Yes.

Yesterday, Dimitri asked me to go to the casino with him.

I accepted.

Oh, don't take that! Alan!

Take this away, bring a bottle of Bordeaux.

My one.

What was I telling you?

Ah yes, so we went to the cinema, to the casino, all that.

Then he was magnificent.

It's been forever since I'd taken a walk...

with a refined, delicate, distinguished man...

He took me home at 3 in the morning It was too much.

Ah, the Bordeaux!

- Do you like Bordeaux? - Very much.

This is from my personal cellar. This one is good.

- It's good, eh? - Very good.

Finally, when we got back, I had an attack of chest pains.

When I used to go on tour...

I wore a fur coat, even in summer.

- Obviously, with my voice... - Yes of course.

Hey, you don't look good.

Your mother will be saying I make you work too hard.

For me, in my life, there were men and my mother.

Really good, eh?

To you.

Tomorrow, I tell you, she said "tomorrow".

- You're sure? - Of course, it's our birthday.

You want deckchairs and Havanas?

If I'd done a quarter of what you do, at Negresco...

I'd've been sacked on the spot.

Overdid it, eh, Fatso?

What is it?

It's the beer, I was told...

at reception that...

Well, come in.

Come in.

- It's the first time I've seen you. - I'm filling in for someone.

The regular has otitis.

That�s serious.

- Will he have an operation? - Yes... uh, no.

In fact, he has a toothache. It's like a bad toothache.

Mum, could you give me a drink, please?

- Do you like beer now? - Sometimes.

I'd better go then.

- Your name? - Georges.

Georges?

Nice name, Georges.

No, that's the bathroom.

It's over there.

Sorry.

Drink up.

You know...

I think I'm in love.

Mostly, I like Claudine.

She's not the greatest looker, but she's nice.

And then, I like her scent.

You know, I've always been sensitive to odours.

She always smells good. She's not bed, eh?

- Hi. - What are you doing?

We've been waiting for you for an hour.

- Cecile didn't come? - Hang on...

She does smell good.

Hello, Dad?

Hi sweetie. Are you still in bed?

No, I just finished breakfast.

I tried to get your mother, but she was out.

I called you to wish a happy birthday.

Thank you Dad.

When are you coming?

I'll try to get there this coming weekend.

- Love you. - Me too, goodbye, Dad.

I can't invite you for my daughter's birthday.

- Do you understand? - Yes, I understand perfectly.

You know...

I've been very lucky to have met you.

You gave me some very beautiful days.

But?

I was waiting for you to ask a bit more of me, perhaps.

- You would've said no. - Who knows.

I'm leaving tomorrow.

I know.

Who told you?

Just look at you.

And anyway, you're a man who leaves.

You're the one who told me that.

Yes.

Tomorrow, or a bit later... what's the difference?

What's the difference?

That's enough as it is.

Have to get some more of this.

How about this weather?!

We're in luck this year.

- Hi. - Hi.

- So, feeling better? - Yes, I slept.

- It's really nice of you to come. - Well, what would you expect?

Let's sit in the sun... It'll be nicer.

So today's the big day?

- What big day? - You're 15, aren't you?

So what?

Oh, nothing.

I brought you a little present.

That's nice of you.

I'm only turning away, so as not to show the look on my face.

Oh, that's nice.

- I'll put it on right away. - Wait, I'll help you.

It came loose.

- Here, Jojo. - Thanks.

So, see you tonight?

No, tonight's for my birthday dinner.

Tomorrow then?

We're leaving tomorrow.

What?

Yes, Mum decided to go home earlier.

But then...

You know, I'm sad, Jo.

But what are we going to do?

Will you write to me? Will I see you again?

I have to go back.

Thank you for everything.

Will you think about me?

Yeah.

I've got to go to work.

Jo...!

Put your helmet on!

I'm so pleased with myself.

It's a beautiful bouquet.

I've always had a passion for flowers.

- And there'll be 15 candles for her. - No, overdoing it.

At her age, we can still put the number.

Fancy a cognac?

- Oh yes. - Where is he?

Bring us 2 cognacs.

Here's our little girl. Why the glum look?

Is it because you're a year older?

Hi.

What's this horrible thing?

- I think it's beautiful. - Alright then.

It's unusual.

Come on! It's Giovanni, an old friend of mine.

He comes here often.

If you're feeling blue, he'll make you laugh.

And what's more, he's a divine dancer.

- What does he do? - I've never known.

Well, come on!

- Hello, you bandit. - Hi.

Giovanni... Mrs Delrue and daughter, Cecile.

When you come to see me, something's always wrong.

I came to say goodbye, I leave tomorrow.

You leaving us? Well, it�s worth celebrating.

A birthday... a departure.

Our little girl turns fifteen tomorrow!

Here, pour us a bottle of brut, the one from under the bar.

- Your daughter is very pretty. - Enough of that!

Gently... 15 is fragile.

She's too young for you. Come and talk about serious things.

Pass me the bottle. Is it chilled?

Here... I'll pour.

A little shot of champagne will perk us up.

Very cold.

Drink up! Don't wait.

I need a little pick-me-up.

To turning 15.

To your leaving.

You're lucky to be leaving.

I'd be happy to pack up and go.

Do you know where you're going, at least?

Vaguely.

I know you, you're not really going on an adventure.

One day you'll be like me and you'll just stop.

Out of fatigue.

Nice, isn't it?

Ciao.

Another hour before the train, we have time.

Can you send someone up for our luggage?

Thanks.

I don't believe we'll be back next year.

It's funny, always the same thing.

At the beginning, I have room in my suitcase.

Now, it no longer closes. But I haven't bought anything.

We have to say goodbye to Edith.

Yes?

Come in. You can take these suitcases.

And those too.

- Okay, I'll take that. - That's all?

- Yes that's all. - Ah good.

Hold on... Did I forget something?

No, I don't see anything.

Come on.
