had so idly dropped in departing

"this golden sickle

in the field of stars."

-Hugo.

Nicely read.

Learn it all by heart now.

Come lie next to me.

Later, I'll tell journalists

I became a lesbian thanks to you.

That's not how I love you.

I loved sharing pleasure,

but that's all.

Don't leave me alone.

It's Francois.

Excuse me.

So you feel lonely with me?

I take what I get

But remember, if you need a favour

or jelp count on me.

I won't ask for anything in return.

I'm intruding.

Not at all.

Come here.

I'm only staying a moment.

I came to see Stephanie

and her new friend.

Stephanie is like a sister.

I love her.

I never refuse her anything.

She and I come from poor families.

But sometimes, thanks to my contacts,

I burn a rich guy,

a VIP or someone famous.

Why are you telling me this?

You threatening me?

Not at all.

Don't take it that way.

We're just talking.

See you, sister darling.

Have a good time.

Is he a guy you sleep with?

What's wrong with that?

It's Charlotte I love.

It's your life after all.

But keep him away from me.

I see you're still doing tests?

You betraying us?

How did you know I was here?

From the office?

No, we followed you.

You taking the new girl?

Why should I answer.

I should kick you off the film.

We feel cheated.

You girls are something.

What if you get sick

or change your mind

at the last minute?

Your lame excuses

won't keep us off the film.

-I'll jump out of a window

-I will too

I'll beat you to a pulp.

You haven't done a thing for me.

You did some admittedly

unusual screen tests.

Others did and didn't get cast.

-It's happening in all films.

-It's not the same.

WE gave up everything for you.

Unfortunately.

Threats to boot.

I should fire you instantly.

-I can only be an actress.

-Millions of girls aren't

-Then I'll kill myself.

-So will.

So you said!

I don't recommend acting.

To anybody.

Mind your dad's clinic.

That would be useful.

Never!

Please don't abandon me.

I need you now.

After the film, I can keep

doing tests for you.

I'm so attached to you.

I think I'm in...

You girls wear me out.

I'm out of here.

Frame them like this.

To play up light and shadow contrast.

We'll try out

three different light later.

Ladies, this is the producer.

Thanks Francois.

Nice to meet you.

You're lovely.

Where is Charlotte?

-In makeup.

-Be right back.

You okay?

Look at me.

better warm her up a bit.

see you in a minute.

I want a very close shot on the kid

and backlight her.

Get a doctor quick.

-It's not a doctor she needs.

-Go on!

Give me a hand.

Stop.

I'm the Devil's Beloved!

let go of me!

Let go of me!

Found someone to replace her?

Not yet.

Do we have to let her go?

She's always been normal with me.

I won't sign a contract with this girl.

Find a replacement and quick.

Not one. Two!

You're all disgusting to treat her

this way.

You used her.

And me. And all the others.

Your film is only possible

thanks to us.

Thanks to our tests,

when we f***ed for you.

If you dump Charlotte now,

I swear I'll stop your film.

I'll get back at you.

Who are these nuts?

Young lady,

I make the decisions here.

You're fired. Both of you.

And you don't say a word in our favour.

Get these crazies out of here!

Forgive me.

I say nothing more.

I am losing my memory

of good and eveil.

I am a cradle

rocked by a hand

in the hollow of a tomb.

Silence.

Silence.

Forgive me my beloved,

but my pain is great.

And I'm so afraid.

So afraid.

Help me, daddy dearest.

Oh, help!

I'm begging you.

I'm here, my little girl.

I'm here.

Forget about these bastards.

have no fear.

They'll pay dearly for this.

This is all your fault.

Did she have to rub it in?

But I was still in charge

of a film and a crew.

Luckily I soon found

two replacements.

One of them, Celine,

despite my qualms,

proved to be a fine actress

and a very sweet girl.

Contrary to my fears,

shooting went without a hitch.

Later I tried to contact

the two other girls,

but they had moved away

and changed phone numbers.

And, mysteriously,

Julie had vanished after

her last day on the film.

The film was an unxpected success.

But I still hadn't found

answers to my questions.

Why does sex lead

to such violence and hypocricy

over matters that are no more

than a tempest in a teapot?

And then,

as Celine said to me,

What is truth?

In fact I was probably

chasing the wind.

Police goodmorning.

Sergeant Devigny.

I have a warrant.

I was taken in custody

and questioned on charges of harassing

Charotte and Stephanie.

I had a prison sentence

hanging over my head.

The word immediately got out

in the proffesion,

and picked up by the gutter press.

It earned me a sickening notoriety

which my intuition had neither

sought or imagined

when it drove me to this film.

the absurdity of it all.

Francois,

sadly, I heard about

what you've been doing all these months.

I'll never forgive you

for having betrayed me so badly.

I left before it was too late.

Don't forget,

time goes fast, for everyone.

I'm so glad to see you again.

So am I.

A kiss?

Why did you vanish after the flm?

Well?

I met someone.

I had to tell him about the film.

He was jealous.

When my scenes were done,

he forced me to move,

change my phone number,

burn all my bridges.

What do you do now?

I work in computers.

Are you happy?

The truth is I ran away.

From what?

You.

Me?

When I touched myself

in front of you at the beggining,

I hardly enjoyed it.

But then I felt an intense pleasure,

which was even stronger

when I made love with Charlotte.

It's because you were watching me.

You initiated me

and now I miss all that.

And to be honest,

at the time, I grew attached to you.

Very strongly even.

As strong as that?

You didn't realize it, did you?

You never realized anything.

I mean, anything serious.

For instance that you were being

manipulated by all those girls.

And that you set something off in me.

See what I'm getting at?

You realize how you hurt me?

I hurt you?

That's what I'm trying to say.

Sorry.

I didn't know.

The shoot was hell for me too.

The shoot...

Still don't understand?

What should I understand?

Tell me.

I can't even hate you.

You never realized

I was in love with you?

Not only for the sex.

It was powerful, deep.

So I chose to run to another man

and never see you again.

You fell in love with me?

My god...

yet I'm sure you don't even

do it on purpose.

It was that powerful?

probably for the others too.

You set off such intence, deep things.

That's why it all anded badly.

You'll never stop being...

so clueless.

But, even for just that,

I'll keep aplace

for you in my heart.

I have to go now.

Give me your number?

I'll give you mine?

We'll meet again.

Their great blue desert is just

a chained hell without flames.

Three times. I repeat.

Their great blue desert is just

a chained hell without flames.

What do you want?

Let go of me!
