You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet Page #2
to cafs with my violin.
I see you struggling
to do your accounts.
I listen to your talk
of fixed price menus,
then I go to bed
and get up the next day.
At my age,
you'll see that's what life is.
I dream about what might part us.
But we get along so well.
By George, you make me laugh!
At your age, I found life magnificent.
I'm going out to the platform.
Our train's in an hour.
Excuse me...
Was someone playing the violin here?
Excuse me...
Was someone playing the violin here?
Excuse me...
Was someone playing the violin here?
Yes, Mademoiselle.
That was my son. My son Orpheus.
He played so prettily.
Yes, Mademoiselle.
That was my son. My son Orpheus.
He played so prettily.
He played so prettily.
Eurydice!
There you are!
It's so hot!
I hate waiting in stations.
Yet another badly organized tour!
The manager should make sure
the leads never have to wait.
There's only one train, mother.
It's not the manager's fault.
You always stand up for fools!
Should we have something to drink?
Now you're sitting down, you should.
A coffee.
Stand up straight.
How come you aren't with Mathias?
He's like a lost soul.
Don't worry about him.
You shouldn't infuriate the boy.
He adores you!
First, you were wrong
to take him as your lover.
I told you that at the time
but what's done is done.
Eurydice, my dear,
you can confide in a mother,
especially when...
Especially when she's your own age.
I mean when she's young.
Tell me, what has he done to you?
Tell me, what has he done to you?
Sit up straight.
Nothing, mother.
Nothing, mother.
Nothing, mother.
"Nothing, mother"
doesn't mean a thing.
He certainly adores you.
Maybe that's why you don't love him.
We're all the same. We won't change.
Is that coffee good?
Have it. I don't want it.
You don't love him anymore?
Who?
Mathias.
You're wasting your time, mother.
You're right, one must follow
one's instincts above all.
I've always followed mine
like the real stage animal that I am.
But you're not much of an artist.
Sit up straight!
Here's Vincent!
He looks furious.
My dear,
I was looking all over for you.
- I was here, with Eurydice.
- That manager fellow is impossible.
We have to wait here
an hour or more.
We'll perform without eating.
Last night's storm wasn't his fault.
Why must you always stick up
for that young fool?
A dead loss.
He's a dead loss!
Why does Dulac keep
someone so useless?
Where are you going?
I'm going outside, mother.
Hello, Mathias.
Where's Eurydice?
She just went outside.
Poor boy. He's mad about her.
Must that fool keep grating his violin?
It's annoying.
He's waiting for the train.
That's no reason.
Do you remember
the Grand Casino in Ostend?
You were so handsome!
Do you remember the first day?
"Madame, may I have this tango?"
"But. Monsieur.
I don't dance the tango. "
"It couldn't be simpler. Madame.
"I'll hold you.
"All you have to do is relax. "
The way you said that!
You held me so tightly
that my dress seams
left their mark on my skin.
The uncertain, unsettling first day.
The seeking, sensing and guessing
before we know one another,
already aware
that it will last a lifetime...
Why did we part two weeks later?
I don't know.
I can't remember.
Were you playing earlier too?
Yes, I was.
You play so well!
You think so?
What's the name of that tune?
I don't know. I make it up...
Eurydice! There you are!
Yes!
I've just seen Mathias.
He's looking for you.
Yes!
Your eyes...
are pale blue.
Yes.
One can't tell what colour yours are.
They say it depends
on what I'm thinking.
Right now, they're dark green.
They say that's when I'm very happy.
Who are "they"?
Others.
Eurydice!
Yes!
Don't forget Mathias!
Yes.
Do you think you make me
very unhappy?
I don't think so.
I'm not afraid of being unhappy
as I am now.
That hurts...
but it's a good thing.
What I'm afraid of
is being unhappy and alone
after you leave me.
I'll never leave you.
Do you swear?
Yes.
On my life?
Yes.
I like it when you smile.
Don't you ever smile?
Never when I'm happy.
Weren't you unhappy?
You don't understand a thing.
What a business!
The two of us are in a fine mess.
Standing here
with all that's going to happen to us
already waiting at our backs.
Are a lot of things
going to happen to us?
Everything. Each thing that happens
to a man and a woman on this earth,
one by one.
Things that are amusing, sweet
or terrible.
Shameful things,
dirty things too...
We're going to be very unhappy.
How wonderful!
You see, my dear,
on this earth where everything
crushes or hurts us.
It's wonderful to think
that we still have love.
My big pussycat...
We're often misled in love,
often hurt.
Often unhappy, Lucienne,
but we love.
And, from the edge of the grave,
we turn to look back and say,
"I've suffered. I've been wrong at times
but I've loved.
I lived this life,
not some being
born of my pride and boredom!"
Bravo, my big pussycat, bravo!
- Was that Musset?
- Yes, my pussycat.
Make them shut up, for pity's sake.
Make them shut up.
For pity's sake, make them shut up!
Monsieur, Madame,
you may not understand.
This will seem very strange.
I'm afraid you must leave.
Leave?
Yes, Monsieur.
- You're closing?
- Yes, Monsieur. For you.
Really, Monsieur...
He doesn't work here.
He had the violin.
You must vanish immediately!
Something very serious
is happening here.
The boy's mad!
Confound it, Monsieur, that's absurd.
This caf is open to all.
Not anymore.
This is too much!
Waiter, excuse me!
Don't call. Go.
I'll pay for your drinks.
Come, he's not in his right mind.
I shall complain to the stationmaster!
They were so ugly, weren't they?
So ugly, so stupid!
Forget about them.
When I was playing.
You walked by and I didn't know you.
Now, everything has changed.
I know you.
They were so ugly, so stupid!
Forget about them.
When I was playing,
you walked by and I didn't know you.
Now, everything has changed.
I know you.
Swear you'll never leave me.
I swear.
Yes, but that's an easy vow to make!
I hope you don't intend to leave me.
If you want me to be happy.
Swear you'll never want to leave me.
Even later. Even for a minute.
Even if the world's prettiest girl
looks at you,
I swear that too.
How false you are!
You'll stay even if the world's
prettiest girl looks at you?
But to know she's looking,
you must look at her too.
My God, I'm so unhappy!
You begin loving me
and already think about other women!
Swear to me...
you won't even notice
that silly girl, my darling.
I'll be blind.
Even if she looks like me?
Even then.
I'd be wary of her.
Do you swear willingly?
Yes, willingly.
All right.
And on my life?
On your life.
If you swear on someone's life.
That other person will die
if you don't keep your oath.
I'm aware of that.
All right. I believe you.
Besides, I'm so easy to mislead,
so unwary.
I'm happy. That's enough.
