You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet Page #6
No.
That's good.
Adieu.
You can start all over again.
Don't thank me.
Are you there?
Are you there?
You're there...
Yes, my darling. You took so long.
Yes, my darling. You took so long.
They let me come to fetch you.
But I can't look at you until dawn.
Are you there?
Yes, my darling. You took so long.
They let me come to fetch you.
But I can't look at you until dawn.
Yes, my darling, I know.
They told me.
Come...
We'll wait for dawn here.
When the waiters arrive
for the first train,
at daybreak, we'll be free.
We'll ask them
for hot coffee and food.
You'll be alive.
You weren't too cold?
I was. That was the worst thing.
The terrible cold.
I'm not allowed to speak about it.
I can only talk about the driver
smiling at me in the mirror
like a crazed animal!
After that,
I'm not allowed to say.
Are you all right?
Oh, yes!
At your side.
It's handy coming back to life...
It's as if we'd just met
for the first time.
Are you kind?
Are you mean?
What's your name?
Orpheus.
And yours?
Eurydice.
But we're forewarned this time.
Forgive me.
You must have been so scared.
Yes.
It starts as a dull presence
accompanying you,
staring at you from behind,
listening to you speak.
Then it pounces like a wild animal.
First, it's a weight
pressing on your shoulders
and then it shifts,
it starts wearing away at your neck,
strangling you.
You look at others who are calm.
Others...
who don't have a beast on their back,
who aren't afraid
and who say "It's all right,
perhaps she missed her tram
or stopped to chat. "
But the beast starts screaming...
as it digs into your shoulder-blade.
Do people miss trams in real life?
No.
They slip,
getting off before it stops.
They are run down
as they cross the tracks.
Do people stop to chat in real life?
No.
They suddenly go mad,
they're kidnapped, they run away.
Luckily, the waiter came to deliver me
with a clear look of dismay.
When I saw you in that van,
it all stopped,
the fear left me.
They put me in a van?
A police van.
Did I look terrible?
A little blood at your temple.
You seemed to be asleep.
Asleep?
If you knew how I was running.
like a madwoman.
You must have suffered.
Yes.
Forgive me.
There's no need.
They brought me back to the hotel
because of the letter
I wrote to you
on the bus before it left.
You got it?
No. They must have kept it
at the police station.
Will they read it?
They might.
Can't we stop them?
It's too late.
But I wrote that letter to you.
It's like being naked
Perhaps they haven't opened it.
But I didn't seal it!
I was just doing that
when the tanker hit us.
And that's probably
It made him smile.
I smiled too...
No, I couldn't.
You don't understand a thing!
I'd just written that letter
to tell you I loved you.
to lick the glue on the envelope.
He said something funny
the way those boys do...
Oh, you had to be there to see it.
It's difficult.
It's all too difficult.
What were you doing on the Toulon bus?
I was running away.
Had you had Dulac's letter?
Yes, that's why I was leaving.
What did he say in that letter?
That he would fetch me himself.
And that's why you fled?
Yes, I didn't want you to see him.
- Were you his mistress?
- No!
He told you that I was?
I knew he'd tell you,
that you'd believe him!
I was afraid.
Why not admit it yesterday?
I never was his mistress.
It's best to say everything now.
Just don't lie to me.
Did that man tell the truth?
No!
He lied!
- You were never his?
- No.
If you're telling the truth,
it's easy to tell.
Your eyes are as clear
as a pool of water.
When you lie
or are unsure of yourself,
a darker circle
contracts around your pupils.
The new day will soon dawn.
Soon, my darling.
- You'll be able to look at me.
- Yes.
Deep into your eyes
as into a body of water.
Head first.
Into the depths of your eyes!
Let me stay there!
Let me drown there!
Hold yourself tightly against me.
Warmth, yes.
Warmth other than one's own.
That's more or less sure.
One mustn't be demanding.
Tomorrow,
you'll be able to turn round.
You will kiss me.
Don't speak anymore.
Don't think anymore.
Let your hand
wander over me.
Let it be happy all alone.
Everything would be so simple
if you let it be happy...
I'm so docile and gentle
beneath its caress.
All it asks is to be here.
Don't ask anything of me either.
Accept being happy.
Please...
I can't!
Accept if you love me!
I can't.
Then shut up at least.
I can't!
Some words must still be said.
We must say every word.
My darling, be quiet. I beseech you!
We've been plagued by words
since yesterday!
I have to look at you now.
Wait. Wait!
Please!
What we have to do
is wait for night to leave,
It will soon be morning.
Everything will get back to normal.
They'll bring us coffee,
fresh bread...
It's too long, waiting until morning.
It's too long, waiting to be old!
Please, my darling, don't turn round!
Let me live!
You can feel me against you,
can't you?
I'm here. I'm soft.
I'm warm and I love you.
I'll give you all the happiness I can.
But don't ask for more than that.
Be content.
Please...
Please don't turn round!
Let me live! I beseech you!
I so want to live!
Live...
Live...
Like your mother and her lover?
With tender moments,
good meals, a little lovemaking
and everything's fine?
I love you too much to live.
That man held you against him?
He touched you
with his ring-covered hands?
Yes.
How long have you been his mistress?
A year now.
Were you with him
the day before yesterday?
Yes.
The day before I met you.
He came to fetch me after the show.
He blackmailed me.
He blackmailed me each time.
Admit that you followed me willingly,
you little liar.
Willingly?
Willingly?
I spat each time you kissed me.
Yes, my dove.
As soon as you let me go,
I would flee.
I would strip naked in my room,
wash and change.
You never knew that!
She's mad!
Why so familiar with him?
That's not true.
You see?
That's typical of her, young man.
You made a mistake.
Forgive me, my darling,
but this is the theatre world.
Vincent and mother are the same.
I'm not overly familiar with him.
It's not because I was his mistress.
I'm familiar with him
because we all are.
It's so difficult...
It's so difficult explaining
all the time!
You said I blackmailed you
that evening as every evening.
Blackmailed you how?
The usual way.
You believed in that blackmail
for a whole year, you little liar?
You see,
you admit you did it for a year!
How did he threaten you?
He threatened to fire me each time
from my post as manager.
He's a fool!
He loses everything!
I don't want him around!
This young man is alone
with his ten-year-old brother.
