Man:
RAISE YOUR GLASSES.

[ man #2 toasting
in French ]

- Man: TO DAVID AND CATHERINE.
- Woman: AND CATHERINE.

Woman #2:
DAVID AND CATHERINE.

Man #2:
CONGRATULATIONS, GUYS.

Man #3:
BRAVO, DAVID.

I WAS FOUR OR FIVE MILES
INSIDE ENEMY TERRITORY

AND I HAD THE TRIPLANE
IN MY SIGHTS.

HE WAS SMOKING A BIT,

BUT STILL GAME
FOR A BIT OF FUN.

SO I CLOSED IN.

- HE WENT THIS WAY,
I FOLLOWED.
- MERCI.

HE PULLED UP, I PULLED UP
RIGHT AFTER HIM--

ENGINE SCREAMING,
AIRFRAME STRETCHED
TO BREAKING.

- THEN...
[ imitates machine-gun ]
- [ crowd gasps ]

BITS OF CANVAS,
WOOD, GOD-KNOWS-WHAT
EXPLODED IN FRONT OF ME.

- DAVID BOURNE.
- CATHERINE HILL.

AMERICAN.

WHAT BRINGS YOU
TO PARIS?

PAINTERS.

PAINTERS OR PAINTINGS?

- ARE YOU A PAINTER?
- NO, A WRITER.

SO HOW LONG ARE YOU
STAYING IN PARIS?

I DON'T KNOW.
YOU?

I LIVE HERE.
CAME AFTER THE WAR.

DID YOU FIGHT
LIKE YOUR FRIEND?

YES, WE WERE IN
THE FLYING CORPS TOGETHER.

AN AVIATOR.
HOW EXCITING.

David's voice:
USUALLY SHROUDED PARIS

- WITH THE LOW GRAY CLOUDS
- [ car horn honking ]

"BUT MONDAY HELD THE PROMISE
OF INDIAN SUMMER,

- A GOLDEN AFTERNOON FOLLOWED
BY DAYS OF WARM SUN."
- [ honking continues ]

"AND BY FRIDAY EVERYONE HAD
FORGOTTEN WINTER.

I THOUGHT SUMMER
WOULD NEVER END."

COME DOWN, YOU HERMIT.

I'LL BE RIGHT DOWN.

YOU CAUGHT ME JUST
AS I WAS PUTTING
PENCIL TO PAPER.

[ chuckles ]

SO WHAT DO YOU THINK?

- WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
- THE CAR.

IT'S YOURS.
I BOUGHT IT FOR YOU.

YOU DID WHAT?

IT'S A PRESENT
BECAUSE I LOVE YOU.

[ laughs ]

YOU'RE CRAZY.

IF I'M GOING TO MARRY
AN IMPOVERISHED GENIUS,

HE HAS TO HAVE SOMETHING
TO DRIVE ME AROUND IN.

- OH, WE'RE GETTING MARRIED?
- YOU KNOW WE ARE.

- CAN I COME UP?
- N-N-N... NO.

LET'S GO OUT IN THE CAR.

SET? CONTACT.

- [ grunts ]
- [ engine starts ]

David's voice:
IT WAS ONLY SIX WEEKS
SINCE WE FIRST MET

AT THE HOTEL CRILLON
IN PARIS.

WE HAD A WHIRLWIND ROMANCE,
BUT I WASN'T OVERLY CONCERNED

ABOUT MY WRITING
OR ANYTHING ELSE.

I WAS JUST SO HAPPY
BEING WITH THIS GIRL

THAT I LOVED
AND WAS MARRIED TO.

[ engine stops ]

MERCI.

THIS IS COZY.

COME, HUSBAND.
LIE BY ME.

MONSIEUR.

MERCI.

[ seagulls screeching ]

MM, BREAKFAST.

WHY DO PEOPLE ALWAYS
GET SO HUNGRY AFTER
THEY HAVE SEX?

- DO THEY?
- WELL, I DO.

WHAT SHOULD WE DO TODAY?

WELL, HOW ABOUT A SWIM

AND THEN A NAP
BEFORE LUNCH?

A NAP?

WHAT AN ABSOLUTELY
NOVEL IDEA.

WHERE DO YOU GET
THESE IDEAS?

I'M THE INVENTIVE TYPE,
YOU KNOW?

AND I'M THE DESTRUCTIVE TYPE.

- WHAT WILL YOU
DESTROY NEXT?
- YOU.

ONE NIGHT I'M GOING
TO DO SOMETHING--

SOMETHING YOU'VE NEVER
EVEN HEARD OF OR IMAGINED.

[ laughs ]

LUCKILY I CAN COUNT ON YOU
TO SLEEP LIKE A LOG.

DON'T LULL YOURSELF
INTO ANY FALSE SECURITY.

[ sighs ]

DO YOU LOVE ME
THE WAY I AM?

THAT'S A FUNNY QUESTION.

IF I CHANGED,
WOULD YOU STILL?

SURE.

- DO YOU NEED THE BUG?
- NO.

ARE YOU GOING SOMEWHERE?

I HAVE A LITTLE SURPRISE
FOR YOU.

- WILL I LIKE IT?
- I HOPE YOU WILL.

[ reel clicking ]

[ reel clicking ]

SOFTLY, MONSIEUR.
SOFTLY.

DON'T TRY
TO BRING HIM IN
TOO QUICKLY.

UN LOUP!
UN GRAND LOUP!

[ car horn honks ]

[ children chattering ]

LOOK AT HIM!

- WHAT IS HE?
- HE'S A SEA BASS.

I FISH SUCH AS THIS
HAS NOT BEEN CAUGHT
HERE FOR YEARS.

HE BELONGS
IN A GREAT HOTEL.

QUICK, WE MUST
PUT HIM ON ICE.

Catherine:
YOU ARE FULL OF SURPRISES.

- [ David laughs ]
I COULD DO WITH A DRINK.
- GOOD IDEA.

- WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?
- KISS ME, PLEASE.

NOW FEEL THE BACK.

YOU SEE, I'M A GIRL,
BUT NOW I'M LIKE A BOY TOO

AND I CAN DO ANYTHING
AND ANYTHING AND ANYTHING.

HMM.

TELL ME YOU LIKE IT.

IT'S JUST
A LITTLE UNEXPECTED.

YOU DO LIKE IT,
DON'T YOU?

HERE, COME AND SIT
BY ME, BOY.

NOW, WHAT ARE YOU
DRINKING?

GIVE ME A WHISKEY
AND DON'T BE STINGY.

[ moaning ]

[ grunting ]

NOW I'VE GOT YOU.

- WHERE DO YOU WANT ME, GIRL?
- DON'T CALL ME GIRL.

WHERE I'M HOLDING YOU
YOU'RE A GIRL.

THEY'RE JUST MY DOWRY.

THE NEW IS MY SURPRISE.

FEEL.

David:
CAREFUL THERE.

CAREFUL HERE?

OH!

YOU'RE CHANGING.

YES... YOU ARE.

AND YOU'RE MY GIRL.

- GIRL?
- YES.

I'M PETER NOW.

AND YOU'RE MY BEAUTIFUL
LOVELY CATHERINE.

[ moaning ]

OH, YOU'RE SO GOOD
TO CHANGE.

THANK YOU.

OH, THANK YOU.

I'M GOING TO MAKE LOVE
TO YOU FOREVER.

YOU DON'T MIND
IF WE'VE GONE TO
THE DEVIL, DO YOU?

I LIKE BEING BROTHERS.

THOUGH WHEN WE'RE
NAKED LIKE THIS,

I DON'T SUPPOSE WE LOOK
MUCH LIKE BROTHERS, DO WE?

I'M NOT NAKED.

NO, YOU'RE NOT.

COME ON, DARLING,
DON'T DWELL ON THINGS.

IT WAS FUN.

IT WAS A GAME.

AND YOU WERE WONDERFUL
TO LET IT HAPPEN.

- MONSIEUR, YOUR MAIL.
- AH.

IT ARRIVED
FROM AMERICAN EXPRESS.

MERCI.

$1,250--
NOT BAD.

DARLING.

I HAVE YOUR MAIL.

HMM.

- WILL YOU JOIN ME?
- MM-HMM.

YOU SEEM
IN A BETTER MOOD.

HERE.

WILLIAM WANTS TO KNOW
IF I STARTED THE NEW BOOK.

C'EST MONSIEUR?

YES, IT CERTAINLY IS.

IS IT ABOUT THE MARRIAGE?

NO, IT'S ABOUT A BOOK
WRITTEN BY MONSIEUR.

DAVID, THE THINGS
THEY SAY--

"WRITES LIKE A POET,"
INDEED.

THINGS LIKE THIS
COULD HURT YOU

IF YOU THOUGHT
ABOUT THEM TOO MUCH.

NO, NOT IF YOU'RE CAREFUL.

I'D LIKE TO READ THEM
ONCE MORE.

HOW MANY TIMES
HAVE YOU READ THEM?

YOU'RE NOT GOING TO CARRY
THEM AROUND, ARE YOU?

IT WOULD BE
LIKE CARRYING AROUND
SOMEONE'S ASHES IN A JAR.

SOME PEOPLE WOULD BE
A LITTLE HAPPY

IF THEIR HUSBAND
GOT A GOOD REVIEW.

I'M NOT SOME PEOPLE.

IT'S MAKING US
SOME MONEY.

BUT IT'S AS THOUGH
YOU'RE SUDDENLY EVERYBODY'S.

BESIDES, IT'S NOT AS IF
WE NEED YOUR MONEY.

[ men speaking French ]

I HAVE TO START WRITING.

THEN WRITE.
I'M NOT STOPPING YOU.

WHAT WILL YOU
WRITE ABOUT?

AFRICA.

YOU COULD WRITE
ABOUT US.

US?

WE'D MAKE A GOOD STORY,
DON'T YOU THINK?

YEAH,
I THINK WE'D MAKE
A GREAT STORY.

MONSIEUR, MADAME.

BIENVENUE.
[ exclaims in French ]

[ wind blowing ]

[ shutters creaking,
banging ]

[ bangs ]

DO WE LIKE IT HERE?

IT'S NOT A GOOD DAY
FOR DRIVING.

- WHAT ABOUT HERE?
- [ moans ]

THAT'S ABOUT RIGHT.

[ bangs ]

- [ man speaking French ]
- [ dog barking ]

[ sniffles ]

DID YOU WRITE, POET?

I SEE YOU'RE
AHEAD OF ME.

- WHAT ARE YOU DRINKING?
- ABSINTHE.

- GARCON.
- MONSIEUR.

- DEUX, S'IL VOUS PLAIT.
- OUI.

- SO HOW MANY?
- TWO.

OR IT WAS SIX.

VOILA.

MERCI.

[ speaks French ]

- MERCI.
- MERCI, MADAME.

COME ON, OBLIVION.

[ laughs ]
SOUNDS LIKE A HORSE.

YOU KNOW, YOU WANT TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT ABSINTHE.

IT TASTES EXACTLY LIKE REMORSE,

AND YET IT TAKES IT AWAY.

IT MAKES
EVERYTHING EASY.

SEEM EASY.

I'VE BEEN STUCK HERE
ALL MORNING WHILE YOU WROTE.

AND NOW YOU WANT TO DENY ME
MY ONE PLEASURE,

YOU CLIPPING READER?

NOW WHY DON'T YOU SHUT UP
ABOUT THE CLIPPINGS?

WHY SHOULD I?

JUST BECAUSE YOU WROTE
THIS MORNING?

[ huffs ]

DON'T BE STUPID, DAVID.

PLEASE SIT DOWN.

IT'S JUST THE WEATHER
GETTING TO ME.

PLEASE.

I'M SORRY.

ABOUT THE CLIPPINGS,
I MEAN.

I WAS JUST TRYING TO MAKE
A JOKE AND IT MISFIRED.

I THOUGHT I'D DRIVE
INTO BIARRITZ.

I DON'T THINK
YOU SHOULD DRIVE.

YOU REST.

I'M SURE YOU'RE TIRED
AFTER ALL THAT WRITING.

[ kids laugh,
speak French ]

[ footsteps approaching ]

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE, DEVIL?

YOU DON'T LIKE IT?

MM-HMM.

I WANTED TO BE
A NEW GIRL FOR YOU.

- GIRL?
- YES, GIRL.

SEE?

[ laughs ]

MM.

I TOLD THE MAN
THAT I WANTED IT CUT

LIKE AN ENGLISH BOY
WHEN HE FIRST GOES
TO SCHOOL.

ETON, I SAID.

THEN I WANTED IT SHORTER.

NO, LEAVE THEM.

SO WHERE SHOULD WE GO?

A CITY. I'M TIRED
OF SMALL PLACES.

- WE COULD GO TO MADRID.
- YES!

[ speaking Spanish ]

David:
BUENOS DIAS.

- [ jazz music playing ]
- [ chatter ]

[ muttering under breath ]

[ speaks Spanish ]

- HE'S TALKING TO HIMSELF.
- SI.

COLONEL!
WHAT THE HELL
ARE YOU DOING HERE?

PARIS WAS TOO CROWDED,
SO I CAME DOWN HERE.

ANYWAY, WHAT ARE YOU
SO INDIGNANT ABOUT?

- CRITICISM.
- [ laughs ]

- WHAT ARE YOU DRINKING?
- IT'S AN ANGELUS '98.

BRING ME A BOTTLE
OF WHAT HE'S HAVING.

- VERY GOOD, SIR.
- LET'S SIT OVER THERE.

- CRITICISM YOU SAID?
- YES, ABOUT MY BOOK.

ACTUALLY, IT'S DOING
PRETTY WELL.

I'M PLEASED.
I LIKED IT.

BY THE WAY,
THAT BRITISH OFFICER

WHO CRASHES HIS PLANE--

IT WASN'T SUPPOSED
TO BE ME, WAS HE?

- NO, OF COURSE NOT.
- [ laughs ]

WHAT BRINGS YOU
TO LOFTY MADRID?

- HONEYMOON.
- SOUNDS STICKY.

WHAT?
NO ANGELUS?

WHAT KIND
OF FONDA IS THIS?

MM, EXCELLENT!

SO TELL ME,
WHO DID YOU MARRY?

- ANYONE I KNOW?
- CATHERINE HILL.

ACTUALLY, YOU WERE THERE
WHEN I MET HER, REMEMBER?

- WAS I?
- YES.

I KNEW HER FATHER.
ODD FELLOW.

KILLED HIMSELF
IN A CAR, WIFE TOO.

SILLY WAY FOR
GROWN-UP PEOPLE TO DIE.

THEY SAY SHE NEVER
GOT OVER IT.

WELL, SHE NEVER REALLY
TALKS ABOUT THEM.

SHE HAS AN UNCLE IN PARIS.
HE'S REALLY WORTHLESS.

- DO YOU KNOW HIM?
- YES, I MET HIM ONCE
AT THE RACES.

AH, LONGCHAMPS AND AUTEUIL--
HOW COULD YOU MISS HIM?

WELL, I-- I DIDN'T
MARRY HER FAMILY.

NO, BUT YOU
ALWAYS DO, YOU KNOW?
DEAD OR ALIVE.

- NOT THE AUNTS AND UNCLES.
- AH, THAT'S WHERE YOU FIND

THE SKELETONS
IN THE CUPBOARD.

HI.

CATHERINE, YOU REMEMBER
MY OLD FRIEND COLONEL BOYLE?

- YES. GOOD TO SEE YOU.
- YOU TOO.

I MISSED YOU TODAY.

I LEFT YOU
SO YOU COULD WRITE.

CLIPPINGS?

I BELIEVE I SAW YOU
THIS MORNING

AT THE PRADO LOOKING
AT THE EL GRECOS.

THAT'S RIGHT.
I SAW YOU TOO.

DO YOU ALWAYS
LOOK AT PICTURES
AS IF YOU OWN THEM?

SOMETIMES.

YOU WERE DEVOURING
EL GRECO'S PORTRAIT
OF HIS WIFE.

DEVOURING?

I LIKE YOU.

I ENVY YOU, DAVID.

YOU'LL HAVE TO LIVE
WITH THAT, COLONEL.

ARE YOU ENTIRELY SURE
HE'S EVERYTHING YOU'D
HOPED FOR?

- [ all laugh ]
- Boyle: WHAT?

WOULD IT BE ALL RIGHT
IF I HAD AN ABSINTHE?

SURE.
I'LL JOIN YOU.

AN EXCELLENT DRINK,
BUT I'LL STICK WITH WINE.

SO, UH...

YOU LIKE THE REAL PERNOD?

I'M SHY WITH PEOPLE
AND IT HELPS.

- Boyle: ARE YOU REALLY SHY?
- TRULY.

- ASK DAVID.
- [ whispers ]

YOUR FATHER WAS VERY SHY.

- YOU KNEW MY FATHER?
- OH, QUITE WELL.

AND HOW WAS HE?

HE WAS THE SHYEST MAN
I EVER KNEW.

[ both laugh ]

AND DID HE DRINK
THE REAL PERNOD?

HE DRANK EVERYTHING.

GO ON.

TRY A SIP OF THAT
WORMWOOD-TASTING SERUM.

I DON'T NEED IT NOW.

WHAT, YOU'RE NOT SHY
ANYMORE?

- YOU RODE OVER IT.
- DID I?

HMM.

WHAT SAY YOU WE THREE
HAVE DINNER TOGETHER?

ALL RIGHT.
DAVID?

OKAY.

I'LL GO UP
AND GET MY COAT.

AND DON'T WORRY--
I WON'T BE SHY.

WAS I TOO ROUGH?
I HOPE NOT.

- SHE'S A VERY LOVELY GIRL.
- YOU WERE FINE.

YOU'LL HAVE TO TAKE
GOOD CARE OF HER.

I AM.

OH NO, MY FRIEND.
UNDERSTAND ME.

YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO TAKE
VERY GOOD CARE OF HER.

REMEMBER,
EVERYTHING'S RIGHT
TILL IT'S WRONG.

HOW ARE YOU FEELING,
DEVIL?

DEVILISH.

IT WAS YOU WHO WANTED
TO GO TO MADRID.

I KNOW, BUT IT WAS
TOO CROWDED

AND I WANT YOU
TO MYSELF.

SO WHERE SHOULD WE GO?

WHAT ABOUT CANNES?
IT'LL BE SCORCHING NOW.

David:
LOOK AT THAT--
PARADISE.

David: I THINK IT'S CLOSED.

BONJOUR, MONSIEUR, MADAME.

[ speaks French ]
CAN I HELP YOU?

BONJOUR, MADAME.

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL PLACE
YOU HAVE.

MERCI.
YOU ARE MOST KIND.

- MAYBE YOU COULD HELP US.
- MONSIEUR?

IT'S PERFECT.
IT'S JUST PERFECT.

YOU SEE, MY WIFE AND I
HAVE BEEN SEARCHING

FOR SOMEWHERE IDEAL
TO SPEND OUR HONEYMOON.

NEWLYWEDS--
HOW WONDERFUL.

THANK YOU.

NOW IS THERE ANY WAY
WE COULD PERSUADE YOU
TO OPEN UP?

NO, I'M SORRY.

IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO OPEN
FOR JUST A FEW DAYS.

THERE IS TOO MUCH WORK
TO BE DONE.

NO, MADAME,
NOT FOR A FEW DAYS.

FOR THE WHOLE SUMMER.

WE WILL PAY YOU
HANDSOMELY.

WE'LL BE NO TROUBLE.

WE'LL NEED ONLY
THE SIMPLEST THINGS.

IT WOULD MAKE US
SO HAPPY.

BON. D'ACCORD, OUI.

YOU CAN STAY.

- MERCI BEAUCOUP.
- MERCI.

BUT YOU WILL HAVE
TO GIVE ME SOME TIME.

LOOK, I CAN WORK
UP THERE.

IT'S WONDERFUL
AND SO CLOSE TO CANNES.

PATRICE.

OH, DAVID, WE'RE GOING
TO BE SO HAPPY HERE.

ICI.

MERCI.

- MADEMOISELLE.
- MERCI, PATRICE.

THIS IS NICE.

I'VE BOUGHT ALL
THE LATEST TUNES.

AND I'VE BROUGHT
SOMETHING FOR YOU TOO.

- DO YOU WANT
A TOM COLLINS?
- YES.

[ jazz music playing ]

MERCI.

OH MY.

NOW YOU CAN WRITE OUR STORIES SO MUCH FASTER.

[ jazz music continues ]

[ typewriter clicking ]

[ seagulls screeching ]

I CAN'T WAIT ANY LONGER.
COME AND HAVE BREAKFAST.

WE'RE GOING TO CANNES.
YOU'VE WORKED LONG ENOUGH.

[ bell tolling ]

Jean:
BON, D'ACCORD.

I WILL CUT IT
AS YOU ASK.

WE COULD OF COURSE
EXPERIMENT ON YOU,
MONSIEUR,

IN CASE ANYTHING
GOES WRONG.

YOU SEE, MONSIEUR,
THIS IS AS IMPORTANT TO ME

AS YOUR METIERIS
TO YOU.

VOILA.
TRES BIEN.

[ jazz music playing ]

I HAVE IT MADE
WITH CASTILE SOAP.

IT'S ALL GONE WRONG.

MADAME, WHY WOULD I WISH
TO IMPAIR YOUR BEAUTY?

MAINTENANT, ATTENTION,
S'IL VOUS PLAIT.

SHH.

[ Catherine sighs ]

[ speaking French ]

IT'S...

CHANGING.

ET VOILA!

YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE
DESPAIRED, MADAME.

Catherine:
IT'S LIKE MY PEARLS.

I LOVE IT... SO MUCH.

DOES MONSIEUR WISH THE CUT?

IT IS TRES SPORTIF.

- WELL, I HAVEN'T
HAD A HAIRCUT--
- OH, YES, DAVID.

YOU MUST HAVE IT TOO.

HOW'S OUR STORY COMING?

IT'S HARD WRITING
SO CLOSE TO LIFE.

CAN WE PUBLISH IT SOON?

IT HASN'T GOT AN END YET.

I'M SO PROUD
OF IT ALREADY.

YOU HAVE PUT IN
THE DEVIL THINGS

AND HOW MUCH
I LOVE YOU?

[ laughs ]

[ speaking Italian ]

WELL, THERE'S A SPECTACLE.

[ both speaking Italian ]

- SISTERS?
- I DON'T THINK SO.

LET'S STICK AROUND,
SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

WATCH OUT, HERE COMES
THE PRETTY ONE.

I'M SORRY TO TROUBLE YOU.
PLEASE SIT.

I SHOULDN'T, I KNOW,
BUT I TOLD MY FRIEND
YOU WOULD FORGIVE ME.

- SHOULD WE FORGIVE YOU?
- I'M SORRY.

I'M NOT MAKING
MYSELF UNDERSTOOD.

YOUR HAIR,
IT'S WONDERFUL.

MONSIEUR JEAN
IS HIS NAME.

HE'S VERY GOOD.

SEND HIM OUR BEST.

YOU ARE SO VERY KIND.

GARCON!

I HOPE I'LL SEE YOU
SOMETIME. GRAZIE.

[ chuckles ]

SHE'S NICE.

SHE'LL MAKE YOU NERVOUS
WITH ALL THAT BLUSHING
THOUGH.

I THINK SHE'S
IN LOVE WITH YOU.

WILL MADAME BE BACK
FOR LUNCH?

NO, I DON'T THINK SO.
SHE WENT INTO CANNES.

SOMETIMES THE WIND
DOES THIS.

NOT THE TRUE MISTRAL,

BUT IT WILL BLOW
FOR A WHILE.

- [ metal clinks ]
- [ Catherine laughs ]

MADAME EST ARRIVEE.

LOOK WHO I BROUGHT
FOR YOU.

PLEASE, I SHOULD
NOT HAVE COME.

- I SEE YOU'VE BEEN
TO MONSIEUR JEAN.
- [ giggles ]

AREN'T YOU HAPPY
TO SEE HER?

COME ON, WON'T YOU
MAKE US A MARTINI?

WE CAN EAT LATER.
RIGHT NOW I WANT A MARTINI.

[ jazz music playing ]

[ coughs ]

IT TASTES SO STRONG.

WELL, THERE'S
A STRONG WIND TODAY

AND WE DRINK
ACCORDING TO THE WIND.

OH. DO ALL AMERICANS
DO THAT?

LOOK AT HER, DAVID.
AREN'T YOU GLAD I BROUGHT HER?

SHE WAS IMPOSSIBLE.

WE WERE HAVING ANOTHER FIGHT
IN PUBLIC AGAIN.

- AND IT WAS LUCKY
CATHERINE WAS THERE.
- YES.

NINA WASN'T HAPPY
AND SHE WENT AWAY.

WHAT, SHE JUST LEFT?

IT DOESN'T MATTER.

WE DID HAVE A JOLLY TIME
THIS MORNING, DIDN'T WE?

SI, MOLTO.

- ARE YOU STAYING
FAR FROM HERE?
- I WAS STAYING IN CANNES.

SHE WAS GOING BACK
TO TURIN.

OH, TORINO.
IS THAT WHERE YOU'RE FROM?

MY FAMILY HAS A HOUSE THERE.

TELL HIM THE TRUTH, MARITA.

YOU ARE FUNNY.

IT'S A PALACE, DAVID.

OH, AN HEIRESS.

HER FAMILY GOES BACK
TO GOD KNOWS WHEN.

ANYWAY, I THOUGHT
IF YOU LIKED HER

WE COULD SEE
IF MADAME HAS A ROOM.

- DO YOU LIKE HER, DAVID?
- YES, BUT--

WELL THEN, THAT'S SETTLED.

- MY THINGS ARE IN CANNES.
- NO NO NO.

COME, STAY FOR A FEW DAYS.

DAVID WILL GO WITH YOU
TO GET YOUR THINGS.

WON'T YOU, DAVID?

Marita:
CATHERINE IS SO WONDERFUL!

- YOU MUST LOVE HER VERY MUCH.
- YES, I DO.

I'M IN LOVE WITH HER ALSO.
AND WITH YOU TOO.

IS THAT ALL RIGHT?

[ both laugh ]

[ waves crashing ]

I CAN'T BEAR IT.
I'M GOING TO TAKE THIS OFF.

I WANT TO GET BROWN
ALL OVER.

WHO'S COMING FOR A SWIM?

WOULDN'T YOU LIKE
ONE OF YOUR GIRLS LIGHTER?

YOU'RE NOT MY GIRL.

DO YOU DISLIKE ME
FOR WHAT I SAID LAST NIGHT?

NO.

I JUST DON'T THINK
YOU CAN BE IN LOVE

WITH TWO PEOPLE
AT THE SAME TIME.

COME, LET'S SWIM.

[ women screaming,
laughing ]

Catherine:
I'M IN HEAVEN!

Madame Aurol:
PATRICE, PATRICE!

COME ON, SWIMMERS,
WE DESERVE A DRINK.

WE'RE GOING TO
TRANSFORM THIS BAR.

WE SHOULD BUY
A MIRROR FOR IT.

A BAR IS NO GOOD
WITHOUT A MIRROR.

- LET'S GET ONE TOMORROW.
- YES, LET'S.

THERE'S SURE TO BE
ONE IN CANNES.

THEN WE CAN ALL
SEE EACH OTHER.

WHEN I LOOK TOO DEEPLY
INTO A BAR MIRROR,

THAT'S WHEN
I KNOW I'M LOST.

HOW CAN YOU LOSE
WITH TWO GIRLS?

DON'T YOU LIKE THE WAY
YOUR GIRLS LOOK?

I'M THE FAIR ONE.

YOU'RE DARKER THAN
THE ONE I MARRIED.

SO ARE YOU.

AND I BROUGHT YOU
A DARK GIRL FOR A PRESENT.

AND I LIKE MY PRESENT
VERY MUCH.

DO YOU REALLY?

HOW DO YOU LIKE YOUR FUTURE, DARK ONE?

IT ISN'T
A DARK FUTURE,
IS IT?

SHE'S NOT ONLY BEAUTIFUL;
SHE MAKES JOKES.

I'D RATHER BE A DARK PRESENT
THAN A DARK FUTURE.

SHE DID IT AGAIN.

GIVE HER A KISS, DAVID,
AND MAKE HER A FAIR PRESENT.

[ David sighs ]

THAT'S A BIT MEAN.

YOU CAN DO BETTER THAN THAT, SURELY.

[ chuckles ]

MAYBE WE MADE
TOO MANY JOKES.

[ car engine sputtering ]

[ Madame Aurol
speaking French ]

BONJOUR, MADAME.

BONJOUR,
MONSIEUR DAVID.

- CA VA?
- OUI, CA VA BIEN, MERCI.

MADAME GAVE ME THIS.

THEY HAVE LEFT YOU ALONE.

NO, NOT FOR LONG.
I'M MEETING THEM IN NICE.

ALAS, I WON'T BE NEEDING
ONE OF YOUR WONDERFUL
LUNCHES TODAY.

DOMMAGE.

[ chattering ]

HOW ARE YOU, DEVIL?

DEVIL?
[ laughs ]

DOES HE MEAN ME?

DID YOU WORK WELL,
DAVID?

OF COURSE HE DID.

IT'S THE ONLY WAY
HE EVER WORKS.

NOW CAN WE
HAVE SOME DRINKS?
IT'S SO HOT.

SO WHAT HAVE YOU TWO
BEEN UP TO?

WE BOUGHT THINGS
AND ORDERED THINGS

AND GENERALLY MADE
A SCANDAL.

AND MARITA BOUGHT
BOTH OF YOUR BOOKS.

OH, WELL, I HOPE
YOU LIKE THEM.

- WHAT WAS THE SCANDAL?
- THERE IS NO SCANDAL.

NOT TRUE.

I DID IT
AND I LIKED IT AND...

WHEN DID THEY SAY
THE MIRROR WAS GOING
TO ARRIVE?

DID WHAT?

- WHAT DID YOU DO?
- [ Marita laughs ]

SHE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING.

THIS MORNING
I STOPPED THE CAR
ON THE WAY TO NICE

AND KISSED HER
AND SHE KISSED ME
AND I LIKED IT.

MAYBE YOU SHOULD GIVE IT
ANOTHER TRY, DAVID.

[ jazz music playing ]

YOU FINISHED IT.

IT IS VERY GOOD.

THE ENDING
MADE ME SO SAD.

DON'T OVERREACH.

- THE MAN IN THE BOOK IS--?
- MY FRIEND.

MARITA, WHEN YOU
KISSED DAVID YESTERDAY

AND LIKED IT SO MUCH,

WERE YOU THINKING
OF HIM AS A WRITER?

I DIDN'T THINK
ANYTHING.

HMM, I'M GLAD.

I THOUGHT IT WAS GOING
TO BE LIKE THE CLIPPINGS

ALL OVER AGAIN.

HIS PRESS CUTTINGS--
RAVE REVIEWS

WITH PICTURES
OF HIM GALORE.

YOU KNOW, I THINK
IT'S TIME FOR BED.

WE'RE ALL GETTING
A LITTLE TIRED.

- YOU'RE RIGHT.
- [ record stops ]

I'M DESPERATE TO GET
OUT OF THESE CLOTHES.

I THINK I'LL HAVE
A COOL SHOWER.

MAY I COME
AND SEE YOU LATER?

CAN I TELL YOU NOW?

- CAN WE SKIP IT?
- NO.

LET ME TELL YOU.

WHEN WE STOPPED THE CAR,
SHE SAID IT WAS BETTER

IF I WAS THE GIRL AND--
AND REALLY I WAS GLAD

BECAUSE I DIDN'T
KNOW WHAT TO DO.

I THINK SHE WANTED
TO SHOW ME.

- AND?
- AND I LIKED IT.

- AND I'M REALLY
GOING TO DO IT.
- NO, YOU'RE NOT.

I HAVE TO
TO REALLY SEE.

IF I DON'T,
IT WOULD BE LIKE

STOPPING IN THE MIDDLE
OF SOMETHING.

I'LL COME BACK TO YOU.

WHEN IT'S OVER
THERE WILL ONLY BE
THE TWO OF US.

DON'T DO IT.

IF YOU HAVE HER AFTER,
THAT WILL WASH EVERYTHING AWAY.

THAT'S CRAZY.

LOOK, JUST STAY HERE
AND BE QUIET.

[ whispers ]
I AM QUIET.

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.

I'M GOING TO GO NOW.

[ door opens, closes ]

[ laughs ]

[ speaking Spanish ]

YES!

- [ dog barking ]
- [ elephant trumpeting ]

[ trumpeting ]

COME ON, KIBO.
COME ON, COME ON.

David's voice:
THE STORY STARTED
WITH NO DIFFICULTY,

AS A STORY DOES
WHEN IT'S READY
TO BE WRITTEN.

AN ELEPHANT!

[ man speaking Swahili ]

I SEEN A HUGE ELEPHANT
WITH TUSKS-- HUGE TUSKS.

Man: WHAT'S THAT, DAVEY? WHAT DID YOU SAY?

AN ELEPHANT, FATHER.
A HUGE ELEPHANT.

WE TRACKED IT.

WHO TRACKED IT?

WE DID--
KIBO AND ME.

YOU'RE SURE
IT WAS AN ELEPHANT?

YES, FATHER.
I CAN SHOW YOU.

YOU REMEMBER
WHERE YOU SAW IT?

IT WAS JUST OVER THERE.

David's voice:
IT WAS A GOOD STORY
AND I REMEMBERED

HOW LONG I HAD INTENDED
TO WRITE IT.

[ flies buzzing ]

[ flies buzzing ]

[ speaks Swahili ]

[ speaks Swahili ]

- ARE YOU ALL RIGHT, DAVEY?
- YES, SIR.

I CAN CARRY MORE, FATHER.

[ speaking Swahili ]

- HOW DOES IT FEEL?
- IT DOESN'T HURT.

[ men speak Swahili ]

[ shouts in Swahili ]

- WHERE'S HE GOING?
- WHO?

- THE ELEPHANT.
- OH.

JUMA SAYS HE'S GOING
TO VISIT HIS ASKARI.

- ASKARI?
- MM. HIS FRIEND.

JUMA KILLED HIM.

HERE.

JUMA KILLED
THE ELEPHANT'S
FRIEND?

EAT THE BISCUIT
SLOWLY

AND DRINK
PLENTY OF WATER.

[ David coughing ]

I THOUGHT YOU HAD
GONE AWAY.

I DIDN'T TAKE ANYTHING.

YES, YOU'RE RIGHT.

[ sighs ]
THE WIND'S DROPPING.
IT SHOULD BE A GOOD DAY.

- I DON'T CARE ABOUT TODAY.
- YOU WANT A DRINK?

WHY NOT? I'LL HAVE
WHAT YOU'RE HAVING.

HERE'S TO US.

- ARE WE US AGAIN?
- WHY NOT?

I'M SO GLAD.

HERE'S TO US,
THE BOURNES.

I WASN'T UNFAITHFUL, DAVID.

I COULDN'T BE.
YOU KNOW THAT.

HALF THE TIME
SHE ONLY WANTED TO TALK
ABOUT YOU ANYWAY.

[ door opens ]

I'VE TOLD HIM
ALL ABOUT EVERYTHING
AND HE'S FINE WITH IT.

HE APPROVES.

David: DRINK?

IT'S VERY EARLY.
NO, THANKS.

OF COURSE I'M JUST
AN APPRENTICE,

BUT I WON'T ALWAYS BE.

OH, CATHERINE, PLEASE.
DO YOU HAVE TO?

PERVERSION IS SO DULL.

I SUPPOSE IT'S ONLY INTERESTING
THE FIRST TIME ONE DOES IT.

AND ONLY TO THE ONE
WHO DOES IT.

DO YOU AGREE, HEIRESS?

HEIRESS?
THAT'S A NICE FUNNY NAME.

DO YOU AGREE, HEIRESS,
ABOUT PERVERSION?

I THINK I WILL HAVE
THE DRINK.

MAYBE YOU NEED
TO KISS HER AGAIN, DAVID.

I'M MAKING A DRINK.

I FORGOT ABOUT THE SURPRISE
HEIRESS BOUGHT.

I'LL GO GET IT.

PATRICE.

DO YOU WANT ME
TO GO AWAY?

YOU'D BE SMARTER TO.

I DO NOT THINK SO.

WOULD YOU KISS ME
SO WE KNOW IT IS ALL RIGHT?

THAT'S A WONDERFUL KISS.

WE ALL SAW IT.

HEIRESS HAS BOUGHT
SOME BOLLINGER AND CAVIAR.

ISN'T IT LUCKY
HEIRESS AND I ARE SO RICH

YOU'LL NEVER HAVE
ANYTHING TO WORRY ABOUT?

WE'LL TAKE GOOD CARE OF HIM,
WON'T WE, HEIRESS?

SHE'S VERY BEAUTIFUL.

DID YOU WRITE
THIS MORNING?

YES, I DID.

[ Juma speaking Swahili ]

WHAT'S GOING ON?

WE'VE LOST HIS TRAIL.

LOOK.

LOOK WHAT I GOT.

- YOU DID GOOD TODAY, DAVEY.
- THANK YOU.

WE'RE SET
FOR RATIONS NOW.

- JUMA.
- [ speaking Swahili ]

HOW BIG DO YOU THINK
HE IS-- THE ELEPHANT?

BIGGER THAN ANYTHING
I'VE EVER SEEN.

HOW DOES JUMA KNOW
WHERE HE'S GOING?

JUMA KILLED HIS FRIEND
NOT FAR FROM HERE.

- WHEN?
- I DON'T KNOW.

FIVE, EIGHT YEARS AGO.

YOU MEAN THE ELEPHANT'S
BEEN ALONE SINCE THEN?

ALL ALONE?

[ jazz music playing ]

Catherine:
I'M SO TIRED.

DO YOU WANT
AN EARLY NIGHT?

I WANT TO SLEEP
FOREVER.

YOU DON'T LOOK WELL,
CATHERINE.

I'M FINE,
JUST DEADLY SLEEPY.

[ song ends ]

IT'S A LITTLE HIGH.

Catherine:
CAN I SLEEP NOW?

OF COURSE, DEVIL.
GO TO SLEEP.

[ sighs ]

David:
YOU GOING TO BED?

Marita: ARE YOU?

NO, I'M GOING UP
TO DO MY WORK.

KISS ME GOOD NIGHT?

GO TO BED, DARK ONE.

DON'T MAKE TOO MUCH NOISE.

REMEMBER, I'M ONLY NEXT DOOR.

[ door opens ]

I CAN'T.

I'M SORRY.

IT'S CATHERINE.

[ sobbing ]

YOU ARE VERY BEAUTIFUL.

[ seagulls screeching ]

[ speaking Swahili ]

BOOM!

[ speaking Swahili ]

[ imitates gunfire ]

[ both laughing ]

THIS IS WHERE JUMA
KNOCKED HIM DOWN.

AND THEN HE SHOT HIM
IN THE EAR.

HOW LONG WERE THEY FRIENDS?

I HAVEN'T THE FAINTEST.

HELLO.

WHERE'S CATHERINE?

SHE WENT INTO CANNES.

SHE WON'T BE BACK
UNTIL DINNER.

- ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?
- YEAH, SORRY.

I JUST WANTED TO TALK
TO HER ABOUT SOMETHING.

- IS IT IMPORTANT?
- IT IS TO ME.

- I THINK THAT
I'M ON TO SOMETHING.
- YOUR BOOK?

IT'S STILL FLYING AROUND
IN MY HEAD.

WELL, IT'S OVER
FOR TODAY.

LEAVE IT BEHIND.

I'M GOING TO TAKE YOU
SWIMMING. COME ON.

YOU SAID THAT YOU WERE
ON TO SOMETHING.

YEAH, I THINK SO.

CAN YOU TELL ME?

IT'S NOT
FULLY FORMED YET.

I WISH I COULD HELP.

I WISH YOU COULD TOO.

- DO YOU WANT ME TO STOP?
- NO.

[ Marita moaning ]

WE'VE BEEN
DISCUSSING YOU, DAVID,

STUDYING YOUR NEEDS.

AND WE'VE DECIDED THAT
YOU MUST SHARE US BOTH.

AND HOW'S THAT
GOING TO WORK?

I GET YOU
FOR TWO DAYS

AND HEIRESS HERE
GETS YOU FOR TWO DAYS.

I WANT TO TALK TO YOU.

GOD, DAVID, WHAT'S THERE
TO TALK ABOUT?

WELL?

WHY DO YOU WANT
TO DO THIS?

I DIDN'T BRING HER HERE
JUST FOR ME, YOU KNOW?

YOU DO LIKE HER,
DON'T YOU?

WHY, DO YOU WANT
ME TO FUCK HER?
IS THAT IT?

YOU HAVE.
THAT'S NOT THE POINT.

DAVID, WE DON'T
HAVE TO LIVE LIFE
LIKE NORMAL PEOPLE.

WE CAN DO WHAT WE WANT,
LIVE LIFE THE WAY WE WANT.

AND WHAT KIND
OF LIFE IS THAT?

ALL RIGHT,
LET'S JUST SAY I AGREE
TO THIS NEW CRAZINESS.

WHERE DOES THIS
LEAVE US?

IT DOESN'T
LEAVE US ANYWHERE.

WE JUST CARRY ON.

CAN I TELL YOU A SECRET?

YOU'RE NOT VERY HARD
TO CORRUPT.

THIS ISN'T FUNNY.

COME ON, IT WAS
JUST A JOKE SECRET.

WE JUST HAVE FUN.

COME ON,
DO IT FOR ME.

MM.

- JUMA.
- [ speaking Swahili ]

- [ coughing ]
- IT RESTED HERE.

HE'S SLOWING DOWN.

IT WON'T BE MUCH LONGER.

FUCK ELEPHANT HUNTING.

WHAT'S THAT?

FUCK ELEPHANT HUNTING.

BOY, YOU'D BETTER NOT
FUCK THIS UP.

- JUMA.
- [ speaking Swahili ]

[ elephant trumpeting ]

[ trumpeting continues ]

- [ roars ]
- [ birds screeching ]

[ growling ]

GOD--

[ trumpeting ]

GO!

NO!

NO! GO!

GO! JUST GO!

GO GO!

[ gunshot ]

[ elephant trumpeting ]

[ gunshot ]

AN ELEPHANT HUNT?

WAS THAT REALLY YOU?

ME AND MY FATHER.

DID YOU STOP LOVING HIM
WHEN HE SHOT THE ELEPHANT?

THAT WAS WHEN
I GOT TO KNOW HIM.

HELLO, YOU TWO.

HAD A NICE DAY TOGETHER?

BE A DARLING, DAVID,
MAKE ME A DRINK--

MARTINI, STRONG.

IT'S JUST LIKE MEETING
AN EX-HUSBAND.

IT MAKES ME FEEL
VERY SOPHISTICATED.

I THINK IT AGREES
WITH YOU TOO.

DO YOU THINK
HE'S ALL RIGHT?

AND WELL YOU MIGHT BLUSH.

LOOK AT HER, DAVID.

SHE LOOKS
VERY WELL TO ME.

- HMM.
- AS DO YOU.

- CAN WE TRY
AND BE CIVIL TODAY?
- WHAT?

LIKE MISS SWEET-AND-INNOCENT
HERE?

I MUST SAY I'M GLAD
I HAD HER BEFORE YOU.

- CATHERINE!
- OH, ALL RIGHT,
GIVE ME MY DRINK.

THAT MIRROR'S
AWFULLY CRITICAL.

DID THE DARK GIRL TELL YOU
SHE'S READ OUR STORY?

- SHE AGREES IT'S WONDERFUL.
- OH, YOU'VE READ IT?

Catherine: WE BOTH HAVE.

I THINK YOU SHOULD
HAVE ASKED ME.

I KNOW I SHOULD HAVE.

BUT I STARTED TO READ IT
FOR MYSELF AND THOUGHT IT
SO INTERESTING

HEIRESS OUGHT
TO READ IT TOO.

- David: I'D HAVE SAID NO.
- [ Catherine laughs ]

THE POINT IS,
MARITA DEAR,

IF HE EVER SAYS
NO ABOUT ANYTHING,
JUST KEEP RIGHT ON.

IT DOESN'T MEAN A THING.

IT'S VERY GOOD, DAVID.

JUST WAIT TILL HE TAKES
OUR STORY UP TILL NOW.

- YOU'LL FIND OUT.
- I'M THROUGH WITH THAT STORY.

THAT'S DIRTY.

THAT WAS MY PRESENT
AND OUR PROJECT.

I'M WORKING ON SOMETHING NEW.

NEW?

OH, I SEE.

IS THAT WHAT
SHE'S READING?

IT'S WONDERFUL.

YOU KNOW, I'VE NEVER READ
A STORY OF DAVID'S UNTIL NOW.

I WOULDN'T INTERFERE.

I'VE ONLY MADE IT
ECONOMICALLY POSSIBLE FOR HIM.

IS THERE ANY REASON WHY
I CAN'T READ THIS MASTERPIECE?

- CAN I READ THIS?
- YES, READ IT.

IT STARTS WELL,

ALTHOUGH YOUR GRAMMAR'S
ATROCIOUS.

YOUR DESCRIPTION
OF THE COUNTRY IS PRETTY.

[ chatter, laughter ]

HOW COULD YOU WRITE
ABOUT YOUR FATHER
AND HIS WHORES?

- IT'S REVOLTING!
- IT'S NOT ABOUT THAT.

AND WHO CARES ABOUT NATIVES
AND FLIES AND FILTH?

HOW COULD YOUR FATHER
INVOLVE YOU IN SUCH A THING?

NOTHING CAN MAKE ME
FINISH IT.

I DIDN'T WANT YOU TO READ IT
IN THE FIRST PLACE.

YOU TWO CONSPIRED
TO MAKE ME READ IT.

I ASKED YOU
NOT TO READ IT.

I HATE YOU.

I HATE YOU BOTH!

CATHERINE.

DAVID.

CATHERINE!

David's voice:
BUT I WAS WORRIED NOW

AND THOUGHT
WHAT WILL BECOME OF US

IF THINGS
HAVE GONE THIS WILDLY

AND THIS DANGEROUSLY
AND THIS FAST?

Catherine:
WHY HAVE YOU STOPPED
WRITING OUR STORY?

YOU NEVER CARED
WHAT I WROTE BEFORE.

I'VE LET YOU ALONE
AND NOW SHE'S MADE YOU--

NO NO.
LISTEN TO ME.

THIS IS SOMETHING
I HAD TO DO.

IT'S HORRIBLE!
IT'S HORRIBLE!

STOP IT, STOP IT.

- SHH.
- [ crying ]

STOP IT.

YOU FINISHED IT.

WELL, THE FIRST STORY
ANYWAY.

THEN LET'S GO TO TOWN
AND CELEBRATE.

YOU TWO LOOK
WONDERFUL TOGETHER.

I'M SO PROUD.

I FEEL AS THOUGH
I'D INVENTED YOU.

IS IT LUNCH ALREADY?
DO YOU MIND IF I JOIN YOU?

NO, OF COURSE
YOU MUST JOIN US.

- DAVID?
- SURE.

WHAT HAVE YOU
BEEN UP TO, DEVIL?

I'VE HAD A FINE MORNING.

I MADE DECISIONS
AND PLANNED THINGS.

- WHAT SORT OF PLANS?
- THEY'RE ALL STRAIGHTFORWARD.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO GROAN ABOUT THEM.

YOU'VE BEEN
DOING JUST WHATEVER
YOU WANTED TO

THESE PAST FEW DAYS
AND I WAS PLEASED FOR YOU.

BUT I HAVE THE RIGHT TO MAKE A FEW PLANS.

OF COURSE YOU DO.

FIRST, WE HAVE
TO START SEEING ABOUT

GETTING THE BOOK
PUBLISHED,

SEE ABOUT GETTING ILLUSTRATIONS, SEE ARTISTS.

MM, YOU HAVE BEEN BUSY.

WERE YOU GOING TO LET ME
GO OVER THEM BEFORE?

SOMEONE HAS TO GET STARTED.

ALL RIGHT,
WHO'D YOU COME UP WITH?

DIFFERENT ONES
FOR DIFFERENT PARTS--

DERAIN, PICASSO.

CAN'T YOU SEE A NICE LAURENCIN
FOR MARITA AND I IN THE CAR

WHERE WE STOPPED
ON THE WAY TO NICE?

- I HAVEN'T WRITTEN THAT.
- WELL, WRITE IT THEN.

IT'S CERTAINLY
MORE INTERESTING
THAN YOUR FATHER

STAGGERING AROUND,
SMELLING OF SOUR BEER

- AND SHOOTING
HELPLESS ELEPHANTS.
- KEEP YOUR VOICE DOWN.

WELL, I KNEW
I'D MADE YOU HAPPY

AND I'D ACCOMPLISHED
SOMETHING.

IT'S VERY GOOD OF YOU
TO LET US SPEND

SOME TIME TOGETHER.

I'M SORRY I WAS RUDE
ABOUT YOU, MARITA.

I COULDN'T BE HAPPIER
ABOUT YOU, REALLY.

BUT CAN'T YOU SEE
DAVID'S MIXED UP?

JUMPING BACK AND FORTH,

TRYING TO WRITE
THIS AFRICAN THING

WHEN ALL HE HAD TO DO
WAS KEEP ON WITH THE NARRATIVE

THAT MEANT SO MUCH
TO ALL OF US.

IT WAS GOING
SO WELL TOO.

WE WERE JUST COMING
TO THE MOST EXCITING PARTS.

WELL, YOU MUST
FEEL BETTER

NOW THAT YOU'RE
PLANNING THINGS.

I DO.

BUT I CAN'T HELP IT
IF I'M PRACTICAL
AND SENSIBLE.

I DON'T KNOW WHY DAVID'S
BEING SO DIFFICULT

THE MOMENT I PUT
A LITTLE ORDER INTO THINGS.

THE WHOLE THING
HAS DRAGGED ALONG
IN SUCH A HAPHAZARD WAY,

I SUDDENLY FEEL ASHAMED
OF US ALL.

CHRIST!

CAN'T WE TALK ABOUT
SOMETHING ELSE?

YOU KNOW, DAVID,
MARITA WAS NEVER MY TYPE.

I'M NOT ATTRACTED
TO THE GAMIN TYPE.

I'LL HAVE TO TRY ANOTHER
TO FIND OUT WHAT I'M MISSING.

[ Marita moans ]

[ sighs ]

I FELT BAD ABOUT
LEAVING HER THERE.

I THINK SHE WAS HAPPY
BEING THE GREAT PUBLISHER.

AND DON'T THINK ABOUT HER
WHEN YOU MAKE LOVE TO ME.

NO, OF COURSE NOT.

YOU DON'T WANT ME
TO DO HER THINGS?

- BECAUSE I CAN DO THEM
BETTER THAN SHE CAN.
- MARITA.

I CAN'T BELIEVE
WHAT'S HAPPENING.

NO MATTER HOW IT IS,
I LOVE YOU.

AND TOMORROW YOU'RE GOING
TO CONTINUE YOUR WRITING.

[ car engine sputtering ]

[ crickets chirping ]

[ Marita speaking Italian ]

HELLO, HUSBAND.

I'M MAKING A DRINK.
DO YOU WANT ONE?

THAT WOULD BE NICE.
A MARTINI.

AND PUT IN
ONE OF THOSE OLIVES,

ALTHOUGH I DON'T
THINK IT WILL HELP.

- HELP WHAT?
- [ door opens ]

I DROVE ALONG
THE LITTLE CORNICHE

AND STOPPED
ABOVE VILLEFRANCHE

AND WATCHED
A BATTLE CRUISER COME IN.

AND THEN IT WAS LATE.

Catherine:
IT WAS VERY STRANGE--

ALL THE COLORS
WERE TOO BRIGHT.

EVEN THE GRAYS
IN THE OLIVE TREES
WERE GLITTERY.

- THAT'S THE TWILIGHT.
- NO, I DON'T THINK SO.

IT WASN'T VERY NICE
AND IT WAS LOVELY.

THE SHIP DIDN'T
LOOK BIG ENOUGH
FOR SUCH A BIG NAME.

TOO MUCH SUN.

HERE, DRINK YOUR DRINK.

CAN WE HAVE A BOTTLE
OF BOLLINGER?

IT WAS ALWAYS
SUCH A NICE WINE

AND WE WERE ALWAYS
HAPPY WITH IT.

IF YOU WANT.

I'LL GET A BOTTLE.

IT WAS FUN WHEN DAVID
REALLY DID LIVE WITH ME,

BEFORE HE WAS WRITING
THOSE DREADFUL STORIES.

I CERTAINLY HOPE
YOU LIKE STORIES, HEIRESS.

- I LIKE THEM.
- THAT'S GOOD.

DAVID USED TO HAVE
SO MANY OTHER INTERESTS.

NOW ALL HE THINKS ABOUT
IS HIS DRUNKEN FATHER

AND HIS PRESS CLIPPINGS.

HAS HE EVER SHOWN YOU
HIS CLIPPINGS?

- NO.
- WELL, HE WILL.

HE WAS PUSHING THEM
ON ME BEFORE,

BUT I PUT A STOP TO THAT.

THERE WERE
DOZENS OF THEM

AND ALMOST ALL
HAD HIS PICTURE.

ALWAYS THE SAME PICTURE.
HE CARRIES THEM AROUND
LIKE OBSCENE POSTCARDS.

FINE, TAKE THE CLIPPINGS
AND BURN THEM.

THAT WOULD BE
THE SOUNDEST THING.

HOW DID YOU KNOW
I DID IT?

- DID WHAT?
- BURNED THE CLIPPINGS.

- DID YOU, CATHERINE?
- OF COURSE I DID.

ONLY THE CLIPPINGS?

OH, DAVID,
POUR THE CHAMPAGNE.

[ panting ]

PLEASE TELL ME
YOU DIDN'T BURN IT.

I HAD TO, DAVID.

IT WAS WORTHLESS
AND I HATED IT.

BUT WHY?
FOR GOD'S SAKE, WHY?

- I PAID FOR THEM.
- I KNOW YOU DID.

I KNOW. IT WAS
VERY GENEROUS OF YOU.

NOW WHERE IS IT?

ASK HER TO LEAVE.

NO, STAY WHERE YOU ARE.

CATHERINE,
CATHERINE, PLEASE.
WHERE IS IT?

[ panting ]

- WHERE IS SHE?
- IN BED.

- I'M GONNA KILL HER!
- DON'T TALK LIKE THAT.

YOU CAN'T BE ANGRY
WITH SOMEONE WHO'S ILL.

I DON'T CARE.
I WANNA KILL HER.

I WANNA STRANGLE
THE VERY LIFE OUT OF HER.

- YOU CAN WRITE IT AGAIN.
- NO!

[ sighs ]

YOU ONLY GET
SO MANY GOOD ONES

AND THAT WAS A GOOD ONE.

THANK YOU
FOR SLEEPING HERE.

WOULD YOU KISS ME
GOOD NIGHT?

I'M GOING AWAY
IN THE MORNING.

AWAY WHERE?

PARIS...

TO SEE ABOUT ARTISTS
FOR THE BOOK.

WE'VE WASTED
SO MUCH TIME
AS IT IS.

I JUST NEED
TO KEEP ON WITH IT.

HOW ARE YOU GOING
TO GET THERE?

WITH THE BUG.

IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT?

YES.

I'LL LOOK AT THE CAR
FOR YOU IN THE MORNING.

THANK YOU.
IT'S GOOD OF YOU.

I'LL SPEAK WITH
MY LAWYERS ALSO.

YOUR LAWYERS?

THE AFRICAN STORY
IS OBVIOUSLY WORTH
A LOT TO YOU.

IT'S BOTHERING ME
TERRIBLY NOW.

I KNOW
MY RESPONSIBILITY.

I'LL DO EXACTLY
WHAT I SHOULD.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

I'LL HAVE THEM VALUED

AND I'LL REIMBURSE YOU.

IT'S NOT ABOUT THE MONEY.
CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND THAT?

I UNDERSTAND I'VE DONE
SOMETHING BAD TO YOU.

GOD, CATHERINE.

[ seagulls screeching ]

[ car engine roaring ]

[ tires screeching ]

DO YOU HAVE
TO DRIVE SO FAST?

I WANT TO MAKE SURE
IT'S SAFE.

DAVID, SHE HAS GONE
TO THE STATION.

SHE TOOK MARITA'S CAR.
SHE LEFT THIS.

WHAT TIME DOES
THE TRAIN LEAVE?

NO, IT'S GONE BY NOW.

SHE WAS VERY SWEET,
THANKED ME.

I DIDN'T KNOW
WHAT TO DO.

THERE'S NOTHING
YOU COULD HAVE DONE.

[ both speaking French ]

Catherine's voice:
"MY DEAREST DAVID,
I'LL CUT THIS SHORT.

DO NOT WORRY AT ALL.

I'LL WRITE
AND DO ALL THE THINGS
FOR MY BOOK.

SO IF YOU EVER FINISH IT
ONLY I WILL TRY TO DO
THIS ONE THING.

I HAD TO BURN
THE OTHER THINGS.

THE WORST WAS BEING
RIGHTEOUS ABOUT IT,

- BUT I DON'T HAVE
TO TELL YOU THAT."
- I'M PUBLISHING A BOOK.

"I DO NOT ASK FOR FORGIVENESS,
BUT PLEASE HAVE GOOD LUCK."

YOU MUST MEET
A YOUNG FRIEND OF MINE.

- AN ILLUSTRATOR?
- NO, BUT SHE KNOWS
A LOT OF PEOPLE.

AND SHE'S GREAT FUN.

WILL SHE LIKE ME?

"HEIRESS HAS BEEN GOOD
TO YOU AND ME BOTH

AND I DON'T HATE HER.

I WON'T END
AS I WOULD LIKE TO

BECAUSE IT WOULD SOUND
TOO PREPOSTEROUS TO BELIEVE.

BUT I WILL SAY IT ANYWAY
SINCE I WAS ALWAYS RUDE
AND PRESUMPTUOUS

AND PREPOSTEROUS TOO LATELY,
AS WE BOTH KNOW.

I LOVE YOU
AND I ALWAYS WILL
AND I AM SORRY.

WHAT A USELESS WORD.

CATHERINE."

[ clicking ]

[ dings ]

[ men laughing ]

[ men chanting ]

DAVEY, THE ELEPHANT--

HE WAS A MURDERER,
YOU KNOW?

THERE'S NO TELLING
HOW MANY PEOPLE HE KILLED.

WEREN'T THEY
TRYING TO KILL HIM?

WITH A PAIR OF TUSKS
LIKE THAT...

WELL, HOW WAS
HE A MURDERER THEN?

HUH?

WELL, IF YOU WANNA
LOOK AT IT THAT WAY.

I WISH HE'D KILLED JUMA.

JUMA'S YOUR FRIEND.

NOT ANYMORE.

JUMA KILLED HIS FRIEND.

YOU'D KILL KIBO
IF HE HAD IVORY.

THIS IS WHAT I DO.

JUMA TOO,
AND THE PORTERS.

I WISH I HAD NEVER SEEN
THAT ELEPHANT.

BUT YOU DID.
YOU DID SEE HIM.

AND YOUGAVE HIM TO ME.

FRIENDS?

[ screaming ]

- THAT WAS AWFULLY CLOSE!
- [ laughs ]

I LOVED IT.

WHAT'S HAPPENED?

THE BOURNES
ARE NOW BURNED OUT.

MARITA, IT'S ALL
COMING BACK-- EVERYTHING.

THE BOURNES?

- ARE WE THE BOURNES?
- YES.

WE ARE MOST DEFINITELY
THE BOURNES.

David's voice:
IT ALWAYS MADE ME HAPPY
TO REMEMBER MY FATHER.

AND I KNEW HE WOULD HAVE
LIKED THIS STORY.
