Hey, I'm not in the sky.
I'm here on earth.
I'm just passing through.
I won't be there.
Don't beIieve what I will

It's a joke. I won't be there.
If you see me, you must think,
''Why isn't she here ?
Where is that idiot ?''
MeanwhiIe you'll squeeze my wrist,
extend your arm and back up.
You'll put the other hand on your
forehead and Iook cIoseIy at my face
as if you wouId Iike to draw it.
- Look at what a beast !
- ImbeciIe, are you aIready drunk ?
Artists are aIways
kicked out impoIiteIy.
AII he can do is sell commodes.
I've been preparing years
to recite OpheIia.
I can even make a person
Iike you, cry.
I was born to act,
but they want me as I am here.
They will delay my career.
I'll recite it for you one night.

I Iike you very much.
What is he doing ?
Lotar, kick him out !
- I'll wait for you, my Iord !
- Go to the convent !
- I'll wait for you, my lord,
because once you Ied me to beIieve

Don't beIieve in anything. Listen

You must not think.
I will heIp you.
How can one not think ?
You're stupid if you can.
You'd Iike to Iive
but I wiII do so for you.

CaII the poIice. Out !
A spIash, for the Iove of God !
- Don't use the name of God.
- Are you a priest ?
No, an atheist exhibitionist.
- Christians aren't treated so.
- You're a Christian ? You, f*ggot.
You can be a Christian
and have sex with your ass.
He is right. The souI is the souI,
and the ass is the ass.
- What did you do ?
- Nothing.
- Then why are you here ?
- Because I'm bIack.
- Is that a crime ?
- No, a mystery.
He's not the onIy one.
Listen, I want to tell you something.
- Are you Iistening ?
- I have to piss in the open.
- It's a busy john.
- Shut up, sIut.
I don't know how to answer
certain fundamentaI questions.
Who the f*** am I ? Where the f***
am I going ? Who the f*** made us ?
I don't know a f***ing thing.
- Do you know who f***ing made you ?
- Yes.
- That shithead father of mine.
- I meant in the universaI sense.
- Who cares about the universe !
- You don't care about the universe !
Stop compIaining.
- I was just asking.
- You're too afraid.
Me ? No. If I want...
AImost aII the eviI done
is because of fear.
Everyone is afraid.
I am, but I know it.
- What do you know ?
- Nothing.
But I can expIain
why you are afraid.
- I don't give a damn anymore.
- You shouId know.
Look here.
This is a scaIe,
a scaIe of vaIues.
Here there is everything
that you think is necessary.
In the Iower section are the vaIues
that interest you,
and you don't know that on top
are vaIues that count most of all.
When you are deprived of them,
you get angry
and your pride is hurt,
and when the chain is broken
for a moment
you feeI the cIean air.
A vaIue that gives man dignity
and you enjoy as a memory
of the goIden age
accused, guiIty or innocent,
another, didn't destroy one another.
On the Iast step is freedom.
For it, one must be abIe to scream,
to be desperate, desire, kill !
- Kill !
- Even kill ?
Yes. Life is not a vaIue in itseIf.
It depends on how you Iive it.
If you can no Ionger hope,
you can onIy shoot !
- Shoot. Shoot !
- Shoot. Shoot.
Shoot ! Yes, shoot !
It's 6 in the morning.
Sergeant Killer and his men
wish a good morning
to all the bastards in this sewer.
In 15 minutes questioning
will begin.
Untie your beIts and don't forget
personaI beIongings.
The exit is at gate 5. Thank you.
With all respect to minorities,
I have nothing to do with
the fags of the Turk bath.
- Who asked you ?
- I was just thinking.
It was a voice off stage.
Shitface. I know your type

You are a foreign prostitute
who goes to Turk baths.
No, you are wrong.
Bruno MarteI.
Father and mother unknown.
NaturaIized EngIish
for marriage to Anne SIimpton.
Living in London.
Profession, motion picture actor.
Who is that sh*t
that soId you this ID ?
Press charges.
It's true. It's not credibIe.
Nobody will beIieve it.
How can peopIe beIieve
bullshit Iike this ?
A person Iike this does not exist,
not even in a fiIm.
That's what the producers say
when they want to interfere
in the script.
But I'm not a script.
You are not a producer,
and you can't manipuIate me.
You want to insuIt me ?
Speak cIearIy.
Come on. Say I am a shitface.
Come on, speak !
- Producers aren't so bad.
- Come on, confess !
The commander of the Bounty compared
to you is a sociaI worker.
I have to screw this prostitute
otherwise he'll get off on baiI.
Do you have 100 pounds ?
No, but if I caII my wife...
I am really Bruno MarteI, actor.
ReguIarIy married, I swear.
Your wife knows you go with fags ?
Let's hear.
- Hi, Anne.
- It's you.
You have to get me out of here.
I am in troubIe.
- With the poIice.
- I can't, I can't !
I am tired of your hero attitude.
It's over !
She found out.
Are you caIIing your husband now ?
No, my agent. He has to advise the
production. Maybe they are worried.
I am curious to know
what the hell kind of fiIm it is.
I convinced him to give me
baiI money.
Next time you will stay inside.
- Who did you convince ?
- Your producer.
He Iet you out, otherwise
what shitfaces wouId work today ?
Don't say it or he'll beIieve it.
You're joking. MeanwhiIe he'll take
that money from your pay.
- He'll take it from you ?
- No.
What are you compIaining about ?
- You can't do what you want.
But what he does is pubIicity,
and what you do is bullshit.
- Mr. Vandenberg !
- Call me Excellency !
- Excellency...
- No, Highness.
- Highness...
- No. Majesty is better.
- If Your Majesty allows...
- I don't aIIow, idiot !
Finally !
I was beginning to worry.
The scene is ready.
What does it Iook Iike ?
The john isn't dirty enough.
Away with toiIet paper. I want smell
of sh*t and pieces of newspaper.
- Okay. Carry out !
- Don't get upset !
Remember, nuances !
Otherwise it will be a scene
without psychoIogicaI finesse.
Nuances my ass !
The girI goes into the bathroom,
Bruno, with King Kong,
break down the door.
He screws her from the front, him
from the back. What do you want ?
You must Iet me work.
You'll ruin everything Iike that.
- Who is King Kong ?
- What did this idiot understand ?
- He is King Kong !
- I don't know what to think.
I'll tell you what you have
to think.
Your eyes must portray
impIoration and terror.
Terror creates excitement in man.
PIeading creates lust.
You must give Bruno and the spectator
