Original subtitles

- You have booked a Détente Plus package.

Seven days, six nights.

With two massages and two seaweed wraps.

You are in room 340.

This is a Prestige suite. Panoramic.

"Horizon Spirit.

With a beautiful sea view. If you don't mind me saying so,

in a personal capacity, I'm flattered to welcome you.

I am an admirer

of the films you star in. - Thank you for your interest.

- Enjoy your stay.

- I'll put the towel on to keep you warm.

If you don't mind my asking... can we have take a photo, please?

I love your films. I watch everything you do.

Pretty quickly.

- There, now?

- Yes, if possible. Afterwards, at the end, there will be practitioners with us.

So if you don't mind...

- This can be done after the treatment.

- A second one?

Thank you very much.

I'll turn the machine on for you.

I wish you a good treatment. - Thank you very much.

- Hop.

- Crap.

- Holy shit!

Oh. Damn.

- Hello? - Yes, my love.

- Ah, it's you. How are you?

- Yeah. We missed each other.

- Wait, I'm underwater. - Am I bothering you?

- No, it's okay. Can you give me two seconds?

- Yeah. *-- A thing. Hold on, hold on, hold on.

Wait a minute. Ah, come on!

Pierre, I'm on the line. What do you want?

Go and ask the culture department.

See you soon.

Yeah. Sorry about that. Voilà. How'd it go?

- Bah ça va. *- Hm?

- Yeah, I'm good. Listen, um...

Here it is. Then I started making some...

a few treatments, that's cool.

Morgane is talking to me.

No. No, I didn't. I never said that.

I never said we didn't make the subject.

We do the subject, we do the subject,

but I present the 20 hours, not a morning show.

So we don't put it in the opening. I don't know how to say it.

I've said it four times. You go back to him

and you tell her what I told her. What I told you.

We'll cover the subject in the second part of the newspaper. Here we go.

Go tell her. I promise you, he'll understand.

OK. Thank you for your time.

- Do you want me to call you back? *-- Wait. Hello?

No. I'm online.

- Fucking...

Fucking...

Fuck!

Damn it! Shit!

Fucking...

Fuck!

Holy shit, how do you stop this shit?

- Yes, I'll call you. I reassure you, it's nothing to get worked up about.

It's been a few times I've been trying to reach you.

Obviously, you don't feel like answering.

I would have...

wanted to try, perhaps,

to make you reconsider your decision. Even if you don't have to.

I would have at least

wanted to tell you that, leaving a show

like you just did,

to four weeks

of the Première...

it's pathetic.

Then, it's very violent for everyone.

For the whole team.

It's violent for the other players.

Who were dreaming. They were happy

of... from...

to accompany you for your first time on stage.

They wanted to be there. They wanted to be with you.

And it's very violent for me too, because...

I had thought up this show for you.

Around you. From the start, it was all about you.

Because I believed in you. We believed in you. All of us.

So I say to you:

do what you did, it's not classy.

It's actually pretty lame.

I think you behaved like a little guy.

It's okay to be scared. It's okay to be afraid.

It's normal

in this kind of situation,

but you're not allowed to jump ship the ship like you did. There you go.

All the best to you.

- Hi. - Hi.

- Are you OK? - I'm fine. A little cold.

- It blows. - Yes, it does.

- Sorry, I don't have a watch. I came across something crazy.

I came across a small broken-necked gravelot. Can you see it?

It's a little plover.

Between the seagull and the woodcock. Small endemic birds.

It's a dying breed. When you see one, you stop.

And you're enjoying it. So I looked at it and...

It was sitting on the beach. It wasn't moving.

It's normally nervous.

And at one point... I think...

our eyes met.

And I was able to read all about his travels. In her eyes.

Because it's a migratory species.

Anyway, I was with him, now I'm with you. All is well.

All is joy.

Shall we start? - Yes. I've been here one and a half years.

We had an appointment at half past.

- Wonderful.

Quickly, I've been a teacher for seven years.

Well, it wasn't my...

primary vocation. I did a baccalaureate and then a BTS in...

I moved quickly into the corporate world.

I've mapped out my route.

I made a free act

and projected my personality into infinity.

So I developed my...

my sport technique. The mystical sport.

Soon, it's...

solidarity...

solidarity between

inside and out.

The shown, the hidden. The unsayable, the unspeakable.

- I'm in. - Get it?

I say "specialty", is to be taken with a pinch of salt.

Who controls what, especially when you touch...

to such volatile things. See?

And above all, it compartmentalizes.

So there's no compartmentalization in life.

Life is the circulation of energy.

All right? What are you doing?

- In what way? - In life.

- I'm... I'm a comedian.

- OK.

I'm in. Great.

You...

It's not too hard, is it?

- I'm fine.

- I have a girlfriend who does that. She sweeps.

- Yes, well... it depends.

- Then this must speak to you, the shown, the hidden.

- Yes, of course.

- What you want to show or hide, what people perceive of you...

No ? - Yes, of course.

- Yes. The mirror of man. The eyes.

Come on, let's breathe.

- We'll what? - Breathe.

Every sport starts with breathing, otherwise you suffocate.

Parallel yourself.

Here, take your hands out of your pockets.

Our backs are to the wind. Let me put my hand there.

Behind you. It's to connect with you.

So that we can breathe together.

OK?

Are you ready? - Ready.

What do I do? Breathe? - Yes.

Now you're showing me that you're breathing, but you're not breathing.

Just reach out, inhale...

and give it back.

- Hello? - Yes, can we talk?

- Yeah. How you doing?

- Do you have some time? *-- Yes, go ahead. I've got two minutes.

- Two minutes is a long time to say what I have to say.

- No, but come on, tell me.

- No, but I'm... I'm...

I just keep... going round and round in my head. I keep...

to think about it.

- But all what? What are you thinking about?

- Well...

to the play.

By the way... leaving like that...

Really fast, for leaving everyone behind.

I wonder.

I...

- But how do you question yourself? About what?

- I wonder whether it was...

it was the right decision to make, otherwise...

I would have screwed up.

But...

- What's that? - But that's it. But otherwise...

Well, I... I mean, the guy's got a lot of talent.

The play was announced.

And then I just took off.

- Well... OK, so what?

- So nothing! I'm just telling you my questioning, that's all.

- No, there's no question there.

What's the question?

- Well...

If there's a question or not, I don't know.

It's not about that, it's not about knowing whether there's a question or not.

It's not black or white.

I mean, you...

- No. No. Actually, I don't understand,

you know, the closed file that raises questions after the fact.

So I don't know, actually...

- It's classified, so I can't talk to you about something...

that takes my head, doesn't make me feel good. *- No.

I do, but I don't know what but to move on.

Abandoned projects happen every day. it doesn't matter.

You know, you move on and...

Here we go again, see?

You're there, you see,

to get back into shape and rest,

to read the scenarios...

You have scripts to read, directors are waiting to hear from you.

For me, that's the goal.

Work, call people back, come back in shape.

And then, sorry, but...

you're the one who decided to give up. You see?

Again, no big deal.

And you decided to go.

It's all you, you, you.

- Yes, but it was important to me. It was important to me.

I took off.

- Well, maybe it wasn't that important. You know what I mean?

And now it's like that.

So you're going to pay back what it cost.

Quite a lot of money, in fact.

Posters, salaries, loss of income for the theater...

Er... You've been behaving badly with anyone, really.

You're very clean.

Once again, no one forced you to get into this.

See?

A lot of people are waiting for you to make you're going to make them.

You'll make them.

Already, to pay off what you owe the theater.

And then, I'll tell you, actually...

it's no big deal if you never do theater in your life. See?

Who said you absolutely had to theater? I didn't.

You're at the movies, people love you in the movies.

They tell you in the street every day.

So you don't do theater, you don't do theater. That's just the way it is.

- Good morning to you. - Good morning to you.

- A message for you has been left at reception.

- Thank you very much. - Have a nice day.

- Hello?

- Hello... Alice?

- Yes, yes. - This is me.

- Yes, ciao. - How's it going?

- I'm fine. How are you?

- Yeah, it's...

it's strange to hear you. I'm glad to hear it.

- Yes, me too.

- I got your note.

- Yes. - Do you mind?

- No, you don't bother me at all.

- Well...

Er...

Well, listen...

- It's...

- Yes, me too.

So you live here?

- Yes, I live here. - I'm in.

How did you know I was here?

in a place like this...

like here...

everyone knows it.

- I wanted to be discreet, I failed.

- And... how long are you staying here?

- Until the end of the week.

When I was at the hotel, after I got your message I got your message, when we spoke,

I...

I was thinking, I...

I was thinking about what we were going to say to each other.

I found some clever stuff.

But...

but I can't remember.

Frankly, I don't know what...

where to start, what to tell you. I'll leave you to it...

I'll let you get started. - I have no idea.

- Got any ideas? - No idea.

- We have nothing to say to each other. - No, we don't.

- Well, that was great. Ciao.

I wasn't sure if I should contact you. - You weren't?

Why, you ask? - I thought...

Maybe he won't care.

- Me? - Wait a minute, wait a minute. Then I thought...

"I'll give it a try. We'll see."

- Why, nothing to do?

Really, you said that to yourself?

No, I'm... very happy to see you.

- And...

are you here to prepare a film? - No, I'm not.

No, no, I'm... I'm here because...

I had the choice of going Switzerland for assisted suicide,

or do a thalasso here. I've been in...

in the second choice. Thalasso first.

After the thalasso, we'll see.

- OK.

- You, go on, tell me. Do you live here?

And...

So, what's your life like? Married? Got kids?

Are you working?

- So, I've been living here for 12 years.

- Ah yes.

- 12 years and a half, even.

And the two years before, just after Paris...

- Yes?

- I used to live in a town much the same.

- All right.

- Not far from here.

And then.., we came to live here.

Us. - Yes, I was just waiting.

- That means my husband and me. - Yes, it does.

- So... married. - Yes.

- With Xavier, doctor.

Married for 12 years.

- Great. - But together for 15 years.

And not children, but a daughter.

Emmy.

Now almost 15 years old.

- Ah yes. - Ah yes.

- Right. And... - And... we just bought a house.

- Great. - We've done a lot of work.

There's still a lot things to do, but I like it.

And...

as you can hear...

I still don't speak French very well.

- Why not? But you speak very well.

Plus, your accent accent.

I reassure you. - I'm trying.

- Ah yes, I can see that.

Wait, in 15 years, I think you don't speak as well as you used to.

- It isn't true. It isn't true.

- No, I'm just teasing.

And the piano? Still the piano, I suppose?

- Yes, always the piano. - Yes, always the piano.

- Not like Paris. Because here, it's not Paris, but...

It's still my job, yes.

- That's good.

- After that, life here is quiet.

There aren't 12,000 things to do.

- No, I can confirm that.

- Yes. But there's nature. - But there's nature.

- The sea.

I'm very happy.

That's it, that's it. - There you go.

It's great.

Don't you have a picture of your daughter?

- I've got 4,000 if you want.

- Oh, that's crazy.

Dad's a redhead, I take it? - Yes, he is.

- Yes. If not, there's a problem. - Yes, there is.

- Oh là là... She's beautiful.

She's very, very beautiful.

It's great.

- Thank you for your time. - Here you go.

- Thank you.

- Thank you very much.

I'd like to ask you a favor. - Yes?

- Would it be possible to stop playing jazz?

- Of course. - Thank you for your time. Put on whatever you like,

zumba, whatever you like, but not...

I have a problem with jazz.

- I'll take care of that. - Thanks for your time.

You see, already...

Nothing is better than jazz.

No, he didn't, he did zumba.

He didn't get it.

What's more, very strong.

No, sorry, actually...

zumba was a figure of speech.

- All right, then. - Put on whatever you like, but...

no jazz and no zumba. And... no R'n'B.

- All right, then. - And even if...

Even if you don't want to wear anything, that's fine too. We don't need...

- I'll see if it's possible. - Thank you for your time. Sorry about that.

I'm going to look like a pain in the ass again.

Er...

Impeccable. Thank you very much.

See? Wear and tear... - Yes.

- We're getting there.

Er...

Where were we?

I can't remember what we were saying.

- You.

- You mean me? - Yes.

- So... me.

Me... well listen, me...

I'm fine too.

Er...

All is not well, but all is well.

- And... - And that's it.

Overall.

- What's wrong with everything? - Oh, dear.

What's wrong with it all?

Er...

Well, that. See this? The gulfs there.

Gray hair, that. You didn't know that.

- No. - No.

That's basically it.

Already, when I look at myself in the mirror in the morning, it's...

it's a bit of a morale killer.

Well, that's after global warming,

it's no big deal. But hey...

It's...

Here we are.

- How's it going?

- Yes.

Yeah, no, but I'm fine. I can't complain.

Otherwise, I'd be grotesque to complain, but...

it nibbles. There you go.

- So... I know you have a son. - Yes, you do.

Jules. - Jules.

- Yes.

- And tell me, how is your son?

- Yes, he's fine. He's...

He is 11 years old. He is in 6th grade.

He...

He's a wanker, kind of, anyway.

But I was like him at his age, so...

I pretend not to worry.

Here we are.

But he's fine. - Afterwards...

you don't have a serious illness.

- No, I don't think so.

You're kind of freaking me out, but... no, I don't think so.

- You must have had some tests not long ago.

- Yes, you know me. - Yes, you do.

So, all's well on that front too. - Yes, we are.

- You're still with the same woman. - Yes, I am.

Yes, always.

- You do things you like. - Hmm.

- You make a good living.

Yes ?

- Go ahead, I can see you coming.

- We're fine. - Everything's fine.

Yes, yes. That's right, you're right. You're right, you're right.

- And... I heard you're going to play in the theater.

When I read that, I was very happy.

I thought to myself: "Wow! He dares! He's done it."

You make movies, it works well for you.

You could stay in your comfort zone. But no, you go.

So...

I confirm.

All is well.

- Now things are much better.

After everything you've told me.

It's not bad, you have to do a package deal. Thalasso + you.

I'm making the most of my stay. It's perfect.

- Next time,

when anxiety strikes... - Yes?

- Before Switzerland, you call me.

- All right.

Okay, before Switzerland, I'll call you.

That's good. OK.

Whenever I think of Switzerland, I think of you.

- Yes. - Before Switzerland, Italy.

OK.

- And that changes everything. - Yes, it does.

- Your husband, does he know we've been together?

- No.

He knows that before him, I was with someone who left me in the lurch.

But...

Whether it's you or someone else, doesn't make much difference.

Plus, he doesn't like you as an actor.

So imagine if he knew that...

he had prescribed me antidepressants because of you.

- Is that why you wanted to meet? To tell me that?

- Well... it's possible. Maybe it is.

What do you think?

- What do I think? - Yes.

- Quite frankly, I don't really understand. I mean...

I don't know, in the end, you met someone who...

good, apparently, who doesn't like me, but someone...

- Very good, yes. - Very good.

You have a great daughter.

You're happy in what you do. You have a new home.

You're blossoming.

So I don't know, really, where you're going with this.

By telling me all this.

I don't know. Maybe it's... Maybe this is... the way it was supposed to be.

- If it suits you to think so... - No, it doesn't.

Not that it's convenient. Hang on, hang on.

I'm just repeating what you told me yesterday.

- As far as I'm concerned... it went as well as I could.

For you, maybe, it was meant to be.

Because you started successful,

maybe it was easier.

Even sexier,

to go with a woman like yours,

a successful woman too, super beautiful...

Very strong.

Rather than stay with a poor girl like me who just can't do it.

- A poor girl like you?

- Mmm.

- Do you think that's what I think of you?

What I was thinking when we parted?

- We've been together forever. You're the one...

- Okay, fine, if you want.

- You're gone. - Okay, fine.

When I'm the one who left.

But don't make me say things I've never said.

A poor girl?

I never said such a thing. I never meant it.

So if that's what you think, it's something else.

And secondly, yes, I didn't look...

to... to know

how you were, where you were... What you were doing, who you were with.

- No, never. - So if you want, OK...

You can call me an asshole, a coward. I'll apologize.

- After 16, it's easy. - No, but contemptuous,

for you, for your work... never.

- Show me.

How can you apologize?

- I apologize.

Is that your apology?

- Well, yes. - No. We'll do it again.

Really...

A second take. But really...

Really try to please the other person.

With more intention. More sincere.

Go ahead.

- Alice, really, I apologize.

Really.

Here we are.

- Thank you.

- Can I ask you one last question?

- Uh... yeah, go ahead.

- What if some asshole... - Yes?

- ...offered to take you to dinner tonight, as an apology,

would you accept?

- I'd reply: "With pleasure, but...

"tonight, I can't." - Ah...

And if, in addition to being an asshole, he was heavy

and he asked you out to dinner tomorrow night?

- I'd answer him again: "With pleasure,

"except that I won't be able to either."

Tomorrow I'm going to the wedding of a friend I love very much.

And who loves you very much too.

Because I've already told him about you. And... well, there you go.

It's important to her that I'm there.

- Don't tell your husband about me,

but... do you tell your friends about me?

- Yes, but only one.

And after that, she's not just any friend.

Perhaps...

the day after tomorrow?

- The day after tomorrow, I won't be here.

- Ah.

So... it was meant to be.

- Health. - HEALTH.

- Home. - You know where it is, come on.

- We know the address.

- Should we call first or not?

- Cheers! - Alice.

- We're home! - To us.

- And to us.

- Thank you for your kind words. - And here's to your daughter's birthday.

- Yeah, yeah. It's going.

- Where is it?

- With her boyfriend.

- No, then also...

I wanted to take this opportunity to... - Is she with her boyfriend?

- I don't know if she has a boyfriend.

Does Emmy have a boyfriend?

- No, it's not. - See?

- But no. - You have to listen to the mama.

- All joking aside... - Not at all.

- I wanted to discuss about Claire's proposal.

I wanted to talk about it before I proposed it to the mayor's team.

Personally, I wanted to tell you, I've given it a lot of thought,

I took the cabbage...

I think it's a great idea.

Well, I don't know... Everyone's going to say what they think, but...

I find it very interesting. I completely share the values.

I find that taking on the figure of Anne de Poudoulec of Anne de Poudoulec,

which has been extremely important here since the 15th century,

and say: "OK... for the parade,

"the young girl who's going to embody it this this year, we're proposing that she be black."

No, it's not...

- I'm sorry. I'm sorry. - There, I think that's strong.

And at the same time, I wonder if...

it's not a big deal.

- I agree with Xavier. Not about "at the same time",

but then, on the... daredevil.

The clincher.

- At the same time... excuse me, but...

I want to tell you again, Claire, that I understand your idea.

- Yeah.

- But no, it's not a figure of speech.

- Yeah. I've been thinking about it all weekend. - I thought about it all weekend.

- That's what's so interesting about this project.

It's all about creating debate...

- I'm afraid it won't create... That's just it.

I'm afraid we'll be accused of being... provocative.

- Yes? *- Yes? Are you all right, dear?

- Yes, and you? *-- I'm not bothering you?

What do you do? - I'm reading.

- Do you read scripts? Do you? - Yes, I do.

Well...

It's not very exciting.

- Why?

- I don't know, so far, the social comedy...

well, it's not really funny.

And it's not... I don't see what the...

but that's not the point. It's not...

who cares?

With dialogue...

not possible.

Uh... whodunit...

I stopped in the middle because...

I understood the end before the middle, it's always a pain in the ass.

- What's it about? What does it say?

- Nothing, he's just a guy... with his...

who has a disabled child and who in fact...

discovers after a while that...

her son had an accident because...

it was his ex-wife who had... Well, there's something...

It's so... You see it from the start. It's boring.

- I don't know, I didn't read it, but... - It's boring.

- There, you don't put any effort into it.

A guy with a disabled child...

I know what you're going to say:

"The director is a redneck..."

Nevertheless, he's a very good maker.

It's going to be like a series. I'm sure it'll be effective.

Then, once you've done that,

you surprise with social comedy,

which, as I understand it, has... left-wing values.

It's stupid, but I think it's good, it's good for the Césars too.

I think we need to think...

like this.

The right strategy is the thriller

and social comedy.

- So...

I'd like to talk to you, about you.

And I'm going to start with a simple question.

How old are you?

- 78 years old.

Come on, it's starting.

- And...

have you always lived here?

- No, I lived until I was 18 in Vannes.

Afterwards, I...

I met my husband.

We soon had...

a child. A little girl. - OK.

- We came to live in this region.

And...

And I worked at the post office.

- What did your husband do?

- He worked at the tax office. - OK.

- And... let's just say...

after my daughter, two years later, we had a boy.

So I stopped working.

And two years later, we had another boy.

- Wow. - Yeah.

- So if I understand correctly...

At 22, you already had 3 children.

- Yes. - Yes.

- Yes.

- And how did it go with your husband?

- Well, he was a nice person, so it was okay.

It was fine. Yes.

- Did you love her?

- Let's just say I wasn't the question.

He was kind and hard-working. That was already important.

And...

Because in my family, my father was very violent.

So there it was...

it was rather pleasant.

He was rather pleasant. Plus...

my mother liked it and I liked it that my mother liked it.

After that, I'd say physically,

it wasn't necessarily...

my ideal, but...

Here we are.

As it was going well, I...

I wasn't wondering about...

There, it seemed normal to me. Like everyone else, a little.

- Mmm.

And...

I'm going to ask you a question, but...

you answer me or you don't answer me, as you wish.

- Yes.

- It's a question a little more... intimate.

It was...

hard for you to be in the same bed as your husband?

Let him touch you, for example.

- It's...

It's all the same, I wasn't really thinking about it.

I... I think...

uh, I...

It's not...

I wasn't necessarily looking forward with pleasure, but...

I did it because... also, it was...

it was, in a way, marital duty.

But in fact...

what I would also say is that...

I don't...

I didn't necessarily other men.

I was a little bit...

I was looking at the other side and...

And so I...

I was satisfied with the situation, because...

at the time, it didn't seem...

it didn't seem right to look at women.

- And... what made that one day,

was it possible?

- What happened was...

my husband became seriously ill. Seriously...

He just died. He was 58.

And then...

following this...

Well, I...

I got sick too, some time later.

And I thought...

that I wasn't going to recover. It was pretty bad.

And at that point, I got to thinking.

I... I thought it would be...

that I wasn't being honest with myself to...

to keep this secret inside me.

And that I wasn't being honest with, my children, for example

or my family.

And...

And I also told myself that I had to...

I had to consider it...

not as something abnormal, that other women were,

that it was...

it was part of life...

of certain people.

And...

As a result, I was able to admit it a little for myself.

And when I arrived into the house...

in this place where I now live,

I met Gilberte and that's when.., I told myself it was...

Now there was something

with... in relation to her.

- Yes? - Yes.

- Is Gilberte true love for you?

- I'd say so. It's true love, I...

I'll be able to say I've lived

true love. Yes.

- You're very beautiful.

- What's that? - You're beautiful.

I look at you... - I leave the responsibility to you.

Because I... - Yes!

Very, very beautiful.

You look like...

a flower.

A flower. - A flower.

- A flower. - Which one, then?

- A rose. - One rose.

- A rose.

A pink rose. - How sweet.

I...

I'm touched by what you're telling me.

And at the same time...

I don't know what to tell you. Then thank you.

- You're welcome.

- So, this wedding

question mark.

I would have loved a comma.

But I'm leaving tomorrow.

Point.

And what are you going to tell your husband

who doesn't love me

question mark.

- They're nice, they're nice.

- Super. Beautiful.

- Yes.

Arrivederci.

- Come on.

- His thing in the Alps, I can't do it.

I'll never make it.

I'm not at his level at all.

You see, he did athletics,

me, if it's to register and not finish...

Frankly...

I'm going to look like an idiot.

He kept accelerating. Every lap he went faster.

He has to train all the time.

For a moment, I said to him: "Frankly, I'm having more fun.

"There, you're stronger, that's good."

Well, so be it. It sure smells good.

I'm taking a shower.

I'm taking a shower! Then we eat.

- I beg your pardon... - Yes?

- For the fish, it's marked "ikejimé style".

What does it mean?

- We receive live fish, which is rare.

So we kill them on the spot with a very sharp tool.

The fish is seized and the head is pierced above the eyes.

The fish will bleed to death and die, having been pierced through the brain.

It's for the fish's well-being,

it does not suffer unlike caught fish

that get caught in boat nets and die of asphyxiation.

For small fish, we use a different technique.

We have a knife blade that we slide through the fish's gills.

Imagine, between the gills, with a sharp blow,

we go through the head and the brain is blown up.

He loses all his blood and dies. He will not have suffered.

- Incredible. - I can't believe it.

And it's exceptional in taste.

You find something you've never tasted before.

Are you tempted? - What would you like?

- I'm disappointed, but it's okay. Couscous.

- You've... convinced her. - I'm sure I did.

- I'll give it a try.

- Thank you for your choice. Good choice.

I'm really a big fan of your films.

- That's very kind, thank you. - You look...

My idol, my favorite actor.

- That's very kind of you, thank you.

- I appreciate all the films you've made. I almost do.

- Ah. - The last ones, less.

The last two. It's just

that I feel like I've seen it all before.

- Déjà vu? - I don't know. I don't know. Maybe.

But that's presumptuous of me.

- Can do better.

- I'm very proud to welcome you.

- Thank you very much. - I'm touched.

I won't bother you anymore. - Thank you for your time.

Cheers.

What is it?

- A ditty.

- A ditty. - Yes. It's really...

a very small thing.

I put the phone next to the piano.

- Is this yours? - Yes, but it's...

- Did you compose it?

- Yes. - I'm in.

- Not great quality. - No big deal.

It's magnificent.

- It's a little trick.

- It's not a little thing, it's beautiful, Alice.

- I don't know about that. - But yes, it's sublime.

- Thank you.

You're sweet.

- No, I'm not being nice, I'm...

It's not about being nice.

I'm not saying this to be nice. I really think it's beautiful.

What's up?

- It all exists... just in my phone.

In my head too, yes.

On small pieces of paper, but...

it's really hidden inside me.

And basta.

- Why do you say that?

- I don't know.

But it's not for anyone.

And it's my fault if it's not for anyone.

Mmm.

I put myself in a hole. All by myself.

Even here, it's...

is not to be...

for moving here that I regret.

It's not having gone back.

I'm sorry about that.

Then I had my daughter... and now...

That's when I did it.

And...

coming...

Coming...

I can't get things out of me.

Do you understand?

I had... I had a lot of...

I don't know about...

ideas.

But afterwards, it all stayed hidden inside me, like that.

Really hidden deep inside me.

But it's probably my fault.

It's normal that you didn't stay with someone like me.

- You can't say such a thing. It's not the point.

- But yes. I know you do.

There are people like you and there are people like me.

And I'm like that.

- What's the matter with you?

- Why didn't you go home, yesterday?

- I just... - Why?

- Well, I didn't leave.

- You're gonna have to leave sometime.

Yes ? - Yes.

- And what's the idea? What's the idea?

Anyway, it's not it's not important to you.

You'll get your pretty life back.

Your work is great.

Life is easy for you.

You take, you throw away.

You're leaving.

- Do you really want to end like this?

- I don't know.

Perhaps, yes.

- Do you realize that this is...

it's very creepy what you're doing?

- Life is like that.

Sometimes it's creepy.

Very creepy.

- OK.

Yes, Alice, it's me.

I don't... I don't know if you'll listen to this message

or if you won't listen, but I...

I...

I didn't know how to answer when you asked me why I hadn't come home.

I'm not sure I can answer now, but...

but obviously, it was a bad idea.

A very bad idea, in fact. Not to leave.

This time, I...

I'm not going to wait 15 years to ask your forgiveness.

So I beg your pardon.

Otherwise...

I wanted to tell you...

I'm not going to do the play.

I got out of the project. Like a... a bum, I guess you could say.

And... the only reason is...

is that I'm afraid.

Fear of failing.

Fear of...

of not measuring up.

Fear of offending.

It's not very glorious, but... that's the way it is.

But now I have my own success with my films, my fan club.

The truth is, I'm just an ordinary guy, really.

Here we are.

I just wanted to tell you that before I go.

To be at least as honest as you.

Goodbye, Alice.

- Ciao. - Ciao.

- How are you?

I thought...

for once...

it would be nice to part properly.

It was good to see you.

I'm so glad

for not being afraid to do it.

All was well.

Well, I didn't make it easy.

the task for afterwards, but...

That way, no regrets.

- It was a nice coincidence.

- But...

it's not a coincidence at all.

It was completely organized.

I thought that one day

you would have needed thalassotherapy, so...

I came to live here.

I found a husband, I made a child.

And I built a hotel.

It's a lot of planning to see you again.

But you promise me that you'll never come back.

OK?
