Anges Exterminateurs, Les

---

The lampposts are in need..

The lampposts are in need

of their long scarlet coats

Start

Roger.

My grandmother

I have to go see her.

What's the matter?

I've got to see grandma right now.

She's dying at the hospital

I haven't been to see her

Your grandmother died 10 years ago.

-Go back To sleep and leave me alone

-I have to go

I have to go to the hospital

She raised me

She loves me more than my parents

Francois...

Grandma! This unbelievable!

I was just coming to see you.

Don't be afraid.

I'm not afraid

Your wife is right. I'm dead.

Is that a dream?

I came to warn you.

You have to watch out for your self.

You've always been too curious.

But this time you might set

off the infernal machine.

What are you talking about Grandma?

From where I am

it's diffucult and dagerous to help you.

Dammit, stop muttering to yourself.

I need my sleep.

The great white walls are inundated

in a vast tragic happiness.

Three times.

The blood of airports

Can no longer bear the snow

Flooding the blue grass. One time.

I repeat:
The blood of airports

can no longer bear the snow

flooding the blue grass.

One time.

You're in a bad mood.

I'm fed up.

I'm ashamed of what i do

This one will be too easy

Why bother with him upstairs?

You and your "why"!

How should I know?

Mind your own business and obey orders

without wrguing. Period.

And if I don't obey?

You Know what will Happen

We're not angels anymore

-But we're no witches either.

-Yeah right!

Fallen angels,

doomed to obey.

Cut the crap

and get to work, old girl.

Don't treat him too cruelly.

Francois is an odd mixture

of intelligence and foolishness

But he's a child.

Observe this young woman.

Listen to her. She'll inspire you.

She'll make you famous.

So, how was I?

Lovely.

Amazing how far you went.

-Was I wrong to?

Not Necessarily.

I repeat:
you were lovely.

When I came to your door

I was so scared I wanted to run.

I love your films

I wanted to try out for you

even if I had no expectations.

Only five of you

are up for the part.

I was preparing a thriller.

I normally run screen tests

using the hardest scenes.

This time I'd chosen two scenes.

One was pretty erotic,

the one Virginie had just done.

You Know, I'm a blueblood.

I was raised to see sexual pleasure

as taboo to a decent woman.

So, I never had an orgasm.

Untill today

When my boyfriend wants me,

he jumps me and its over in a flash.

I don't know why I'm telling you all this.

I'm I boring you?

Not at all.

So when I came to your door,

I wanted to run.

Why do you do tests here?

I couldn't use the office,

your place, or mine.

Why the erotic tests first?

To give you a chance to bow out.

You said if I was embarrassed,

I should sublimate it

and turn it into pleasure,

then let the feeling carry me.

And go even further.

I obeyed again.

Then my mind went blank

and I tottaly forgot about you.

I know you didn't ask for that,

but the truth is I felt real pleasure.

Extremely intense pleasure, even.

I never imagined anything so intense.

Even in my dreams.

So was it your first orgasm?

I just said it was.

Why is that?

Rubbing myself in front of you

was already an exciting taboo.

Plus, I don't know you.

That makes it stronger.

I could fantasize about you,

knowing you wouldn't touch me.

I pictured you

aroused,

and burning with the desire to take me

You might have been wrong.

You're not a rapist.

What do you feel now?

I don't know.

Shame?

No

The feeling of having been lured

into lewdness?

And it wouldn't be your fault.

I came for a test.

I knew what I was doing

And it was all very exciting

A learning experience

A bit like a revelation

about my forbidden self

Are you sorry?

Not for now.

At least I'm glad you had pleasure,

however unexpected.

Promise me that what I've said

remains our secret.

I promise.

Now if you're not too tired,

we'll move on

to a dialogue reading.

It's a hard scene.

Another actreee was slightly better

and I made the film

without Virginie.

But I was haunted

by what she had confided in me.

Especially since I ran into her

two years later.

She gave me a cold look

and accused me

of having traumatized her.

Why this complete change of attitude?

During the screen test,

had this young woman made things up

to get the role?

As a filmmaker, I took actors' talk

and moods with a grain of salt.

But I was sure at the time

that Virginie had spoken in earnest.

Those confidences made me want

to make an experimental film

about taboos and pleasure.

I had a producer.

Please sit down

Young lady, I may frighten you.

-Listen...

-My name is Olivia

Olivia, I'm doing a film about female

pleasure and transgressing taboos.

I need actresses willing

to be arousing on camera.

Meaning?

What is arousing in life?

We're aroused when we dare do

little erotic things

that we've banned from our minds,

but which we're still dying to try...

like masturbating for a stranger

in a hotel room,

in a school or street.

In the film, I'd need

the actresses' connivance

about their desires,

their secret experiences.

It leaves room for improvisation.

That frighten you?

I mean, yes, a bit.

Do I have to do tests?

What kind?

Ones Involving the key scenes.

Meaning?

Probably rubbing yourself.

And, not being a lesbian, making love

with a woman for the kick of it.

You have to be arousing.

But there's no sex with a man.

What does "arousing mena?

That I have to have an orgasm?

At least create

the illusion

as authentically as possible.

Especially for the rising pleasure.

What are you testing?

An actress's sesnuality.

Some girls are wxciting, others no.

Especially on screen.

Excuse me for being so blunt.

Even if I do erotic scenes for you

that doesn't mean I;ll repeat them

in front of a crew.

Then why do it for me?

But you're right.

Girls often have last-minute qualms.

That's why I have to test

an actress's potential for exhibitionism.

hence, the video tests.

Is there any dialogue in your film?

Sure, and difficult dialogue at that.

I can't allow myself

to make a porn movie.

Nor can my actresses.

We're all on a high wire.

What I'm out to capture...

is the grace of the pleasure

on their faces

and their bodies.

Pleasure...

To express it,

you have to know what it is.

Why not take porn stars

and teach them how to act?

They take no delight in transgression.

I think I know

what you're looking for.

My boyfriend once took me

to a swingers' club.

I hated the place

But at one point I saw two girls.

They were lying on the floor

and one was kissing

the other girl's p*ssy.

So I stopped to watch them

I could see the mounting pleasure

of the girl who was being...

licked.

She was very beautiful.

I was fascinated by the way

her body moved.

before and during orgasm.

It was beautiful.

I suddenly realized

I was very excited

and envious of her.

yet I'm no lesbian.

To be frank,

just talking about it

excites me a little.

Isn't that the kind of excitement
