00:00:00You
00:00:30You
00:00:37Most any place can seem to be a paradise
00:00:45While you embrace just the one that you adore
00:00:53There needn't be an apple tree with magic power
00:01:00You'll need no garden filled with flowers
00:01:04To taste the thrill of sweet
00:01:11Gentle perfume and cushions that are silk and soft
00:01:18Two in the blue that is silent but for sighs
00:01:27That's paradise
00:01:30While arms and twilight lips are kissing
00:01:34But if there's something missing that signifies
00:01:38trouble in
00:02:00Silence
00:02:30Oh
00:02:54But because I made it so that you didn't even control your seniority
00:03:00You'll need no garden filled with flowers
00:03:04To taste the thrill of sweet
00:03:07Gentle perfume and cushions that are silk and soft
00:03:12Two in the blue that is silent but for sighs
00:03:17That's paradise
00:03:20While arms and twilight lips are kissing
00:03:24But if there's something missing that signifies
00:03:27Trouble in
00:03:57Silence
00:04:06Yes, Baron
00:04:09What shall we start with, Baron?
00:04:11Hmm?
00:04:13Oh yes
00:04:17That's not so easy
00:04:20Beginnings are always difficult
00:04:22Yes, Baron
00:04:25If Casanova suddenly turned out to be Romeo
00:04:29Having supper with Juliet
00:04:32Who might become Cleopatra
00:04:36How would you start?
00:04:41I would start to be cocktails
00:04:44Mm-hmm
00:04:46Very good
00:04:48Excellent
00:04:55It must be the most marvelous supper
00:04:58We may not eat it
00:05:00But it must be marvelous
00:05:02Yes, Baron
00:05:04And waiter
00:05:05Yes, Baron
00:05:06You see that moon?
00:05:08Yes, Baron
00:05:09I want to see that moon in the champagne
00:05:12Yes, Baron
00:05:14Moon in champagne
00:05:16I want to see
00:05:19Yes, Baron
00:05:21Yes, Baron
00:05:23And as for you, waiter
00:05:25Yes, Baron
00:05:27I don't want to see you at all
00:05:29No, Baron
00:05:35Oh, I beg your pardon
00:05:37Hmm?
00:05:39Thank you
00:05:42Signore?
00:05:44Si, signore. Il numero del telefono è 3-7-2-5
00:05:46Prego, signore
00:05:48Si, signore
00:05:51Yes, sir. Right away
00:05:56Signor direttore, il signore del numero 253 è stato aggredito nella sua stanza ed ha robato tutto il suo denaro
00:06:04Il signore del 253 è stato aggredito
00:06:07E' vero quello che è successo
00:06:09Ho sentito che Maria chiamava il direttore perché chiamasse la polizia
00:06:20Oh, my gracious! He almost saw me
00:06:23Who?
00:06:24The Marche de la Tour. He was standing in the lobby
00:06:26Oh, but I don't think he saw me. I'm positive he didn't
00:06:28Thank heaven
00:06:30But when I came up here, right out in the hall, there was King Boris of Alconia
00:06:33The tennis player?
00:06:34The tennis player. He saw me. He bowed
00:06:36What could I do?
00:06:38I nodded. Baron, I shouldn't have come
00:06:44But you came, and you must forget everything, except that you are here, Countess
00:07:09Out there in the moonlight, everything seemed so perfect, so simple
00:07:14But now...
00:07:16Do you know King Boris?
00:07:18No, no
00:07:19Do you know the Marche de la Tour?
00:07:21I should like to
00:07:22Oh, you'd better not. He's really very dull
00:07:24But anyhow, when the King tells the Marquis that he saw me, the Marquis will tell the Marquise
00:07:28And the Marquise is the best friend of the Duchess of Chamreau
00:07:30And she's the best friend of the Duchess of Chamreau
00:07:34But I don't care
00:07:35Why should you?
00:07:36But she talks a lot
00:07:37And before this night's over, all Venice will know about it
00:07:40By tomorrow, it'll be Grand Canal gossip
00:07:43Oh
00:07:51Don't stop. Keep right on complaining
00:07:54It's beautiful
00:07:56It's beautiful, isn't it?
00:07:58Don't stop. Keep right on complaining
00:08:01It's beautiful
00:08:03You know, when I first saw you, I thought you were an American
00:08:06Thank you
00:08:07Someone from another world, so entirely different
00:08:11Oh, one gets so tired of one's own class
00:08:14Princes and counts and dukes and kings
00:08:19Everybody talking shop, always trying to sell jewelry
00:08:24Then I heard your name and found out you were just one of us
00:08:28Disappointed?
00:08:31No
00:08:33Proud
00:08:35Very proud
00:08:48Hello
00:08:50The countess. Just a moment
00:08:53The Duchess of Chamreau
00:08:59Hello, Your Grace
00:09:01Yes, Your Grace
00:09:03Well, how did you know I was here?
00:09:05Oh, the Marquis
00:09:09Yes, Your Grace, I see
00:09:11Dinner tomorrow, at your palace
00:09:14Oh, well, I'd be delighted
00:09:17Listen, Lily, when you come home, slip up the back way
00:09:21I can't talk now, but do what I tell you
00:09:24And listen, Lily, do you know what that darn dog of yours did?
00:09:28So he really did
00:09:31How charming
00:09:34Well, my compliments to the Duke. Goodbye
00:09:39There you are. The scandal is on
00:09:43Oh
00:09:49Countess, I'm sorry
00:09:52If you think it's best for you to go, well...
00:10:02I think that's very nice of you
00:10:05Yes, very nice
00:10:13I think we should have a cocktail
00:10:16Huh?
00:10:28The representative of police wants to know how much money you had, Monsieur Philibert
00:10:34Oh, yes, yes
00:10:37I have exactly 20,000 lire
00:10:40I just cashed a traveller's check and I put the money in my wallet
00:10:54Why did you let this man in, Monsieur Philibert?
00:10:58Well, he knocked on the door
00:11:00You see, I was expecting two business associates
00:11:04And then what happened, Monsieur Philibert?
00:11:09Well, I said, come in, and there he was
00:11:13A fine-looking man with a moustache and long sideburns
00:11:16He said, good evening, I'm the doctor
00:11:19I said, doctor? He said, yes, the doctor
00:11:22I've come to see about your tonsils
00:11:39The representative of police would like to know if there is anything wrong with your tonsils, Monsieur Philibert
00:11:47No
00:11:48That's what I tried to tell him
00:11:50Well, one word led to another, he was really a very charming fellow
00:11:54We talked for about 10 minutes
00:12:09What did you talk about, Monsieur Philibert?
00:12:13About tonsils
00:12:18So then I said to myself, all right, if he wants to look at them, let him look at them
00:12:22There's no harm in that
00:12:23Then he said, say, ah
00:12:26And so I said, ah, and that's all I remember
00:12:29When I woke up, I still had my tonsils, but my pocketbook was gone
00:12:35Was it lots of money?
00:12:37Oh, it must have been, Baron
00:12:39The gentleman occupied the Royal Suite 253, 5, 7, and 9
00:12:44I think his name is Monsieur Philibert
00:12:49You're not safe anywhere nowadays
00:12:51But please, Baron, why not support to say a word of it?
00:12:54He won't tell anybody I told you
00:12:56You can trust me
00:12:58Thank you, Baron
00:13:05That's hotel life
00:13:07In one room, a man loses his wallet
00:13:10And in another room, a man loses his head
00:13:14Please, when I came here, it was for a little adventure
00:13:18A little game which you play tonight and forget tomorrow
00:13:22But something's changed me
00:13:25And it isn't the champagne
00:13:29For the whole thing's so new to me
00:13:33I have a confession to make to you
00:13:37Baron, you are a crook
00:13:41You robbed the gentleman in 253, 5, 7, and 9
00:13:48May I have the salt?
00:13:49Please
00:13:51Thank you
00:13:52The pepper too?
00:13:53No, thank you
00:13:54You're very welcome
00:13:56Countess, believe me, before you left this room
00:13:59I would have told you everything
00:14:02And let me say this with love in my heart
00:14:06Countess, you are a thief
00:14:12The wallet of the gentleman in 253, 5, 7, and 9
00:14:15is in your possession
00:14:17I knew it very well when you took it out of my pocket
00:14:20In fact, you tickled me
00:14:23But your embrace was so sweet
00:14:50Countess
00:15:09Countess
00:15:10Thank you
00:15:11Thank you
00:15:20I like you, Baron
00:15:21I'm crazy about you
00:15:25By the way
00:15:28Your pin
00:15:33Thank you, Baron
00:15:35Not at all
00:15:36There's one very good stone in it
00:15:39What time is it?
00:15:52It was five minutes slow, but I regulated it for you
00:15:58I hope you don't mind if I keep your garter
00:16:08Darling
00:16:10Tell me everything about yourself
00:16:12Who are you?
00:16:14Do you remember the man who walked into the bank of Constantinople
00:16:17and went out with the bank of Constantinople?
00:16:19Monescu
00:16:20Gaston Monescu
00:16:22Gaston
00:16:31I love you
00:16:32I loved you the moment I saw you
00:16:34I'm crazy about you
00:16:37My little shoplifter
00:16:40My sweet little pickpocket
00:16:43My darling
00:17:06I love you
00:17:12I love you
00:17:21Geneva
00:17:22From Geneva comes the news that the famous international crook
00:17:27Gaston Monescu robbed the peace conference yesterday
00:17:31He took practically everything except the peace
00:17:34The police arrested him and confiscated all the stolen goods
00:17:38But he managed to escape in an inexplicable manner
00:17:41This is the Paris police reporter speaking
00:17:45Ladies and gentlemen
00:17:46This program comes to you through the courtesy of Collet & Company
00:17:49Manufacturers of the most famous perfumes in the world
00:17:52Remember, it doesn't matter what you say
00:17:54It doesn't matter how you look
00:17:56It's how you smell
00:17:58Thank you
00:17:59Collet
00:18:00Collet
00:18:01Collet & Company
00:18:03Are makers of the best perfumes
00:18:07If you and your beloved can't agree
00:18:11Permit us to suggest perfumes
00:18:15Cleopatra was a lovely tantalizer
00:18:19But she did it with her little atomizer
00:18:23We'll make you smell like a rose
00:18:26Every nose in Paris knows
00:18:28Collet & Company
00:18:31Collet & Company
00:18:36Well
00:18:38I am sure, Madame Collet
00:18:40If your husband were alive
00:18:42The first thing he would do in times like these
00:18:45Cut salaries
00:18:47Unfortunately, Monsieur Giraud
00:18:49Business bores me to distraction
00:18:51Besides, I have a luncheon engagement
00:18:53So I think we'd better leave the salaries just where they are
00:18:57Goodbye
00:18:59Goodbye, Madame Collet
00:19:02This one, Madame Collet, is only 3,000 francs
00:19:05Oh, no, that's entirely too much
00:19:07How about that one?
00:19:09Oh, this one, Madame
00:19:11Well, that's 125,000 francs
00:19:14But it's beautiful
00:19:16I'll take it
00:19:18Thank you, Madame Collet
00:19:20How do you do, Madame Collet?
00:19:22Goodbye, Madame Collet
00:19:24Yes, Madame
00:19:26No, Madame
00:19:28No, Madame
00:19:31Yes, Madame
00:19:33No, no, Francois
00:19:35I tell you no
00:19:37You see, Francois
00:19:39Marriage is a beautiful mistake
00:19:42Which two people make together
00:19:49But with you, Francois
00:19:51I think it would be a mistake
00:19:55Don't be so downhearted, Major
00:19:57You're not the only one I don't love
00:19:59I don't love Francois either
00:20:03Madame will be ready in two minutes
00:20:11I know you don't like me, Major
00:20:13To be perfectly frank, I dislike you
00:20:15Intensely
00:20:19Since we have to be in each other's company this evening
00:20:21We might just as well make conversation
00:20:24Well, Major, what's your answer?
00:20:28For heaven's sake, man, say something
00:20:32Cancels
00:20:53Goodbye
00:21:14Goodbye
00:21:16You should be ashamed of yourselves
00:21:18Too many of you are standing, always quarreling
00:21:20Well, he started it
00:21:22But you're the more intelligent one
00:21:24That's true
00:21:26Then why did you do it?
00:21:29Because I hate him, because I love you
00:21:32You should have more self-control
00:21:34You were in the army
00:21:36Well, he was in the navy
00:21:38Goodbye
00:21:41I want you to go out to apologize
00:21:43Immediately
00:21:52See here, my good man
00:21:54You've been saying goodbye for the last half hour
00:21:56And staying on
00:21:58I wish you'd say how do you do and go
00:22:06Well, he left
00:22:08I tell you, apologizing is a gift
00:22:22Goodbye
00:22:24Goodbye
00:22:26Goodbye
00:22:28Goodbye
00:22:30Goodbye
00:22:32Goodbye

00:22:46Goodbye
00:22:48Goodbye
00:22:50Goodbye
00:22:52Goodbye
00:22:58I hate you
00:23:00She hates him
00:23:20My bag.
00:23:21Your bag?
00:23:22Yes, my bag.
00:23:23Well, well, well.
00:23:24Didn't you take it with you?
00:23:25Apparently not.
00:23:26Don't you know where it is?
00:23:27No, no.
00:23:28I'm sorry.
00:23:29But you saw it here.
00:23:30Yes, yes.
00:23:31I saw it.
00:23:32Then where is it?
00:23:33Well, I...
00:23:34I couldn't have walked out by myself.

00:27:08Oh!
00:27:09Oh!
00:27:10Oh!
00:27:11Oh!
00:27:12Well, it's worth 40,000 at the most.
00:27:14She paid probably 60,000.
00:27:16If I sold it, I would get 5,000.
00:27:18Well, darling, then I'd be honest about it and return it to the lady.
00:27:21And take the 20,000 francs?
00:27:23Right.
00:27:24Sweetheart, what day is today?
00:27:27The 14th of May.
00:27:28And tomorrow is the 15th.
00:27:30And the day after tomorrow?
00:27:31The 6th.
00:27:35We'll go to Venice, to the same hotel.
00:27:38We'll take the Royal Suite.
00:27:402-53-5...
00:27:427-9...
00:27:47No, I'm sorry, but that's not the bag.
00:27:50Next, please.
00:27:55Hello? Yes?
00:27:57No, no.
00:27:59No, it was not insured.
00:28:01Right now, it's too late.
00:28:03I may lose it again.
00:28:05But I haven't found it yet.
00:28:07No, no, I'm sorry. Goodbye.
00:28:10Yes?
00:28:11So you lost the handbag, madame.
00:28:13Yes?
00:28:14And it had diamonds in the back.
00:28:15Yes?
00:28:16And diamonds in the front.
00:28:17Yes?
00:28:18Diamonds all over.
00:28:19Well, have you found it?
00:28:20No!
00:28:21But let me tell you.
00:28:22Any woman who spends a fortune in times like this for a handbag...
00:28:25Fooey! Fooey! And fooey!
00:28:27I must ask you...
00:28:28And as Leo Trotsky said...
00:28:35And that goes for you, too.
00:28:41Goodbye.
00:28:46I must ask you...
00:28:48No, no, no...
00:28:49It was not insured, and then...
00:28:51Goodbye.
00:28:57Fooey! Fooey! And fooey!
00:29:02His fooey is worse than his bite.
00:29:05Oh.
00:29:06I must apologize for entering unannounced, but if I am not mistaken...
00:29:10Madame Collet?
00:29:11Yes.
00:29:12Will you be good enough to look at this bag, madame?
00:29:18Why, yes. Yes, that's it.
00:29:22Jacques!
00:29:23Yes, madame?
00:29:24Dismiss all the people in the hall. Say the bag's been found.
00:29:27Very well, madame.
00:29:31Where did you...
00:29:33Where did you find it?
00:29:35You know the main staircase in the opera?
00:29:37Yes.
00:29:38Then you go to the left. There is a landing.
00:29:39Yes.
00:29:40Then you go into the foyer.
00:29:41Yes.
00:29:42And as you leave the foyer, there is a little niche.
00:29:44I know that niche.
00:29:45And in that niche, there is a statue of Venus.
00:29:46I remember.
00:29:47You like that statue?
00:29:48Not particularly.
00:29:49Neither do I. That's why I found it.
00:29:51I don't know how I could have lost it there.
00:29:53I was nowhere near that niche.
00:29:55Oh, that's strange.
00:29:57Maybe it was a mistake.
00:29:59Oh, that's strange.
00:30:01Maybe...
00:30:03Are you sure this is your bag?
00:30:05But of course it is. Are you doubting me?
00:30:07Not in the least, madame.
00:30:09But you see, this is a very expensive bag,
00:30:12and one has to be careful.
00:30:14Well, I am madame Colet.
00:30:17And I am monsieur Laval,
00:30:20if you'll allow me to introduce myself.
00:30:22Oh, how do you do, monsieur Laval?
00:30:27The pleasure is mine, madame.
00:30:30One purse, empty.
00:30:33One vanity case.
00:30:34Really, monsieur, this isn't necessary?
00:30:36Please, madame, I believe in doing things correctly.
00:30:39Shall we continue?
00:30:41Two hairpins, one cigarette lighter,
00:30:44one box of real matches.
00:30:46Oh, yes, and this letter from Major...
00:30:48You didn't read it.
00:30:49Naturally I didn't.
00:30:51You needn't be embarrassed, madame.
00:30:53A lady as charming as you would,
00:30:55and should get love letters,
00:30:57monsieur Laval.
00:30:59But one suggestion.
00:31:01Not the Major.
00:31:03I don't mind his grammatical mistakes.
00:31:05I will overlook his bad punctuation.
00:31:08But the letter has no mystery.
00:31:11No bouquet.
00:31:15And one lipstick.
00:31:17Scarlet, number four.
00:31:19What's wrong now?
00:31:22With your skin, I prefer crimson.
00:31:25Too much blue and crimson.
00:31:26But that's what you need.
00:31:27Oh, no.
00:31:28No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:31:30I disagree with you completely.
00:31:31I tried it once.
00:31:33What shade of powder do you use?
00:31:35Peaches and green.
00:31:36That's too dark.
00:31:37But do you realize that I have light eyes?
00:31:39Madame Collet, that is a question of eye shading.
00:31:42I can straighten it out in two seconds.
00:31:45Come in.
00:31:49The Major.
00:31:54I'm sorry, monsieur, but madame had better not see anyone.
00:31:57You see, the bag has just been found,
00:31:59and the reaction of relief from her excitement and strain
00:32:01is just a little too much for her.
00:32:03Oh, it's nothing very serious.
00:32:05But all the same, we'd better not take any chances.
00:32:07Just as you say, doctor.
00:32:09Thank you, Major.
00:32:10Good day, doctor.
00:32:11Good day, Major.
00:32:14I'm afraid, monsieur Laval,
00:32:15that I have to leave you now.
00:32:17I'm afraid, monsieur Laval,
00:32:18that I have to leave you now.
00:32:20I'm afraid, monsieur Laval,
00:32:22Oh, Jack?
00:32:23Has the bag been found?
00:32:24Yes, Major.
00:32:25Is madame feeling well?
00:32:26No, Major.
00:32:27Is madame seeing anybody this afternoon
00:32:29this evening or even tomorrow?
00:32:31No, Major.
00:32:32You may shut the door, Jack.
00:32:35Well, that leaves you holding the bag.
00:32:38Why?
00:32:47Where's madame?
00:32:48Why?
00:32:52I think I'd better be going. Goodbye, Madame Collet.
00:32:55Goodbye, Monsieur Leval.
00:32:58Oh, yes.
00:33:00Well, this is a rather delicate matter.
00:33:04I... I don't want to, uh...
00:33:07You see, if you read my advertisement carefully,
00:33:10you would have noticed that...
00:33:12In other words, it embarrasses you to offer me the 20,000 francs reward?
00:33:15Yes.
00:33:17Don't be embarrassed.
00:33:19I'll take it.
00:33:21I need the money.
00:33:23I wish I were in a position to ignore the whole matter what you know, Madame.
00:33:27The stock market, a bank crash.
00:33:31To make a long story short,
00:33:33a member of the nouveau poor.
00:33:37Then I'm glad I lost the bag.
00:33:39I'll write you the check immediately.
00:33:48Madame Collet?
00:33:50Yes, Monsieur Leval?
00:33:52Do you know my first name?
00:33:54No, what is it? Tell me.
00:33:59Gaston.
00:34:01And you know what I would like you to do with that check?
00:34:04What?
00:34:06Make it out to cash.
00:34:08As you like.
00:34:11Now, where can that check supposed to be?
00:34:14Oh, dear me, dear me.
00:34:17She must have left it somewhere.
00:34:20It's always the same.
00:34:22You're looking for something, you can't find it.
00:34:25It's always the same.
00:34:27It's always the same.
00:34:29It's always the same.
00:34:31It's always the same.
00:34:33It's always the same.
00:34:35It's always the same.
00:34:37It's always the same.
00:34:39I can't find it.
00:34:41I can't find that checkbook.
00:34:43I should have discharged her six months ago.
00:34:46I really don't know what to do.
00:34:48Monsieur Leval, I'm very sorry, but...
00:35:10Yes.
00:35:12Early 18th century, I should say about 1730.
00:35:15Right.
00:35:17Beautiful specimen.
00:35:19It is beautiful, isn't it?
00:35:21But I got tired sleeping in antiques, so I gave it to my secretary.
00:35:24Oh.
00:35:26This used to be my secretary's room.
00:35:28I see.
00:35:30She must have been very happy here.
00:35:33Too happy.
00:35:35That's why I discharged her.
00:35:37Terrible.
00:35:39Isn't that wonderful?
00:35:41You see...
00:35:45Let me tell you something, madame.
00:35:47As a man who's had all kinds of secretaries,
00:35:50I wonder if she put that checkbook in the safe.
00:35:52I hardly think so, but let's look.
00:36:08No.
00:36:10No, it isn't here.
00:36:12What?
00:36:14Oh, what do you think of that?
00:36:16100,000 francs.
00:36:18You know, I hadn't the slightest idea.
00:36:20But, madame,
00:36:22you keep 100,000 francs in your safe at home?
00:36:26You think that's too much?
00:36:28No, not enough.
00:36:30In times like these, when everything is uncertain,
00:36:33every conservative person should have a substantial part of his fortune
00:36:36within arm's reach.
00:36:38Mm-hmm.
00:36:40That sounds sensible.
00:36:42Mm-hmm.
00:36:44Yes.
00:36:46Very sensible.
00:36:48Very, very clever.
00:36:50Madame, I think you deserve a good scolding.
00:36:53First, you lose your bag.
00:36:54Then I mislay my checkbook.
00:36:55Then you use the wrong lipstick.
00:36:56Now I handle my money.
00:36:57It's disgraceful.
00:36:59Tell me, monsieur Laval, what else is wrong?
00:37:01Everything.
00:37:03Say, if I were your father,
00:37:06which fortunately I am not,
00:37:10and you made any attempt to handle your own business affairs,
00:37:13I would give you a good spanking.
00:37:16In a business way, of course.
00:37:18What would you do if you were my secretary?
00:37:20The same thing.
00:37:25You're hired.
00:37:33Let me speak to you.
00:37:39Speaking for the board of directors as well as for myself,
00:37:42if you insist in times like these
00:37:45on cutting the fees of the board of directors,
00:37:47then we resign.
00:37:49Speaking for Madame Collet as well as for myself,
00:37:52resign.
00:37:53Very well.
00:37:55We'll, uh, think it over, monsieur Laval.
00:37:59Now, monsieur Laval,
00:38:01as for Madame Collet's life insurance,
00:38:03it totals 1 million francs.
00:38:05There's 500,000 fire insurance
00:38:08and 400,000 against burglary.
00:38:11Then we'd better increase the burglary insurance
00:38:13to 850,000 francs.
00:38:15Thank you, monsieur Laval.
00:38:17No potatoes, monsieur Laval?
00:38:20No potatoes.
00:38:22Yes, monsieur Laval.
00:38:24Yes, monsieur Laval.
00:38:28No, monsieur Laval.
00:38:30Maybe, monsieur Laval.
00:38:36Is this what you mean, monsieur Laval?
00:38:38Absolutely, Madame Collet.
00:38:43Now, monsieur Laval, please.
00:38:46Frankly, madame, I'm too tired.
00:38:48Don't you want to come down and join the party?
00:38:51Just a little tango?
00:38:53No?
00:38:54Oh, you and your messy old papers and contracts
00:38:57and money, money, money,
00:38:59and all those uninteresting things.
00:39:01They're very interesting to me, madame.
00:39:03And somebody in this house should worry about money.
00:39:07No, really, I have to be up early in the morning.
00:39:11New paragraph.
00:39:13Furthermore, it is madame's wish
00:39:15that while half of the interest
00:39:17shall be deposited as usual in madame's account,
00:39:21the other half, contrary to custom,
00:39:25shall be delivered in cash
00:39:27into madame's personal custody.
00:39:31Darling, that means that on the 2nd of June
00:39:33we shall have 850,000 francs.
00:39:35And a jewelry's worth a fortune.
00:39:37No jewelry. Hands-off jewelry.
00:39:39If we're broke, all right.
00:39:41I can pick up a million-franc necklace.
00:39:43But in times like these, when we're doing a cash business,
00:39:46why take a chance with jewelry?
00:39:49Gaston, I know you're awfully busy,
00:39:52and, well, I don't want to trouble you,
00:39:55but she has one little necklace,
00:39:57you know, the one with the sea pearls.
00:39:59It's so quiet and simple.
00:40:02It'd go just beautifully with my neck.
00:40:08Come in.
00:40:11Madame would like to talk to Mademoiselle Vautier for a moment.
00:40:14Very well, Jacques.
00:40:23Come in.
00:40:27Good morning, madame.
00:40:29Good morning, mademoiselle.
00:40:31Oh, please.
00:40:36Please.
00:40:38Oh, thank you, madame.
00:40:40You've had your breakfast?
00:40:42Oh, but of course you have.
00:40:44Oh, yes, madame.
00:40:46I've had my breakfast.
00:40:48Oh, but of course you have.
00:40:51Oh, yes, madame. You see, I have to get up very early.
00:40:54My little brother goes to school.
00:40:57You see...
00:40:59Mother is dead.
00:41:02Yes, that's the trouble with mothers.
00:41:04First you get to like them, and then they die.
00:41:13Oh, thanks.
00:41:21And now, mademoiselle, the reason I asked you to come...
00:41:24Two lumps, madame.
00:41:26Please.
00:41:31May I?
00:41:49Now, mademoiselle...
00:41:51Yes, madame?
00:41:53You see...
00:41:55Not a word to Monsieur Laval.
00:41:57About what?
00:41:59Potatoes.
00:42:01He doesn't want me to eat them.
00:42:03Naturally, I don't want to upset him.
00:42:06Naturally not.
00:42:12Now, mademoiselle...
00:42:14Yes, madame?
00:42:17Now, mademoiselle...
00:42:19In the short time that you have been Monsieur Laval's secretary...
00:42:22Have you noticed any change in him?
00:42:24Well...
00:42:26Yes and no.
00:42:28To me, he seems rather nervous.
00:42:31Nervous?
00:42:33He smokes too much?
00:42:35No. No, he works too much.
00:42:37He's chained to his desk.
00:42:39Too much detail.
00:42:41Now, if you could take over some of his work...
00:42:44Oh, he wouldn't be so confined to his office.
00:42:46Yes, and he'd have a little more time for...
00:42:48For all the really important things.
00:42:50I'll do my best, madame.
00:42:52Even if I have to work every night.
00:42:55Oh, no. No, my dear child. That's ridiculous.
00:42:58You go home as usual, five o'clock every day.
00:43:01Now, I'm going to be a little bit of a tire.
00:43:04I insist.
00:43:06It'll be nice for your little brother, too.
00:43:08Five o'clock. Remember.
00:43:10Very well, madame.
00:43:15Am I there?
00:43:17Yes, madame.
00:43:18How much is your salary?
00:43:20300 francs.
00:43:22Well, in times like these, most people are cutting salaries.
00:43:25But in your case, suppose we say 350?
00:43:30Madame, you are just too sweet for words.
00:43:34Well, what does she want?
00:43:36You.
00:43:38And she's willing to pay as high as 50 francs.
00:43:41What?
00:43:42But it's not enough.
00:43:44Oh, no, Francois. Don't be silly.
00:43:46I have nothing against you.
00:43:48Oh, no. That's all forgotten.
00:43:50What?
00:43:52Not this week, Francois.
00:43:54Business, Francois. Business.
00:43:57You're talking like a child.
00:43:59You know exactly what we're here for and what it's all about.
00:44:01This woman has more than jewelry.
00:44:03Ah.
00:44:04But did you ever take a good look at her, um...
00:44:06Certainly.
00:44:07They're all right, aren't they?
00:44:08Beautiful.
00:44:09What of it?
00:44:10Let me tell you something.
00:44:12As far as I'm concerned, her whole sex appeal is in that safe.
00:44:15Well, Gaston, let's open it right now.
00:44:17Let's get away from here. I don't like this place.
00:44:19No, no, sweetheart.
00:44:21There's more sex appeal coming on the first of the month.
00:44:23It's only 10 days.
00:44:25850 francs.
00:44:27Dolly, remember, you are Gaston Monescu.
00:44:30You are a crook.
00:44:32I want you as a crook. I love you as a crook.
00:44:34I worship you as a crook.
00:44:36Steal, swindle, rob.
00:44:38Oh, but don't become one of those useless, good-for-nothing gigolos.
00:44:48Goodbye, Gaston, darling.
00:44:50Goodbye, sweetheart.
00:44:52Well, I'll leave you alone.
00:44:54Goodbye, sweetheart.
00:44:56Well, I'll leave you alone with that lady.
00:44:58But if you behave like a gentleman, I'll break your neck.
00:45:05Come in.
00:45:06Oh, Monsieur Leval.
00:45:08Yes, madame.
00:45:09Is Mademoiselle Bouthillier gone?
00:45:10Yes.
00:45:11Oh, that's too bad.
00:45:13I wanted to ask her to ask you if you would be good enough to go out to dinner with me tonight.
00:45:24Yes.
00:45:43Good night, madame.
00:45:45And let me tell you again, you'll dance like a dream.
00:45:47Oh, no. It's the way you leave.
00:45:49No, madame, it's the way you follow.
00:45:51No, monsieur.
00:45:52Yes, madame.
00:45:53Well, the evening's still young.
00:45:56Let's go down to the living room and talk it over.
00:46:24Good night, monsieur Leval.
00:46:26Good night, madame Collet.
00:46:33Good night.
00:46:35Good night.
00:46:53Good night.
00:47:23Good night.
00:47:53Monsieur Giron, madame will be with you presently.
00:48:07Very well, Jacques.
00:48:14No, captain, I...
00:48:16Now, Major, you mustn't monopolize, monsieur Leval.
00:48:18Please.
00:48:21May I present monsieur Leval, madame Vito, mademoiselle Dulac, monsieur Lecombe.
00:48:26Monsieur.
00:48:30This is madame Boucher, monsieur Philibert.
00:48:32How do you do?
00:48:33Monsieur Leval.
00:48:40Monsieur Leval, lady Clermont.
00:48:43That's that monsieur Leval.
00:48:45Leval? Who is monsieur Leval?
00:48:47I don't know.
00:48:50She says he's her secretary.
00:48:53Oh, so.
00:48:56And he says he's her secretary.
00:48:59Maybe I'm wrong.
00:49:01Maybe he is her secretary.
00:49:09Excuse me.
00:49:14Pardon me, monsieur.
00:49:16But I have the feeling we've met somewhere before.
00:49:18I'm sorry, I don't seem to recall the occasion.
00:49:21No, I'm afraid...
00:49:23Oh, I must be mistaken.
00:49:25I beg your pardon.
00:49:30That man never met me and he knows it.
00:49:34Trying to make social connections.
00:49:38Monsieur Giron, I'm so busy.
00:49:40Must I be bothered with all those papers now?
00:49:42I'm sorry, madame.
00:49:44But there are still certain matters which you should attend to yourself.
00:49:47I personally would not care to refer them to...
00:49:52Monsieur Leval.
00:49:54Madame, I have enjoyed the confidence of your family for more than 40 years.
00:49:59I was a school friend of your husband.
00:50:02I know.
00:50:04Madame, may I ask you, who is this monsieur Leval?
00:50:07Where does he come from?
00:50:09What is he?
00:50:10He's my secretary.
00:50:12I hope that answers all your questions, monsieur Giron.
00:50:15I suppose you know what Paris is saying about Countess Falconier and her chauffeur?
00:50:24Jacques!
00:50:26Yes, madame?
00:50:28Ask monsieur Leval to come in for a moment, please.
00:50:30Now, please, please calm yourself.
00:50:33I'm like that. I can't help it.
00:50:36I know I never met that man.
00:50:39And yet...
00:50:41Leval?
00:50:42Leval.
00:50:44You know, if I like a man, I remember him.
00:50:46And if I don't like him, I never forget him.
00:50:49In a nutshell, madame, it is little things like that that drive me crazy.
00:50:54Excuse me.
00:50:56Monsieur Leval.
00:50:58Yes, monsieur Philibert?
00:51:00Did we...
00:51:02No.
00:51:04No?
00:51:06No?
00:51:12And yet...
00:51:14Pardon me.
00:51:15Madame Colet would like to see you in the living room.
00:51:17At once, Jacques. We'll continue later.
00:51:20Now, see here, my good man.
00:51:22Let us face the facts.
00:51:24I'm giving a dinner party, and one man turned me down at the last minute.
00:51:29Have you a dinner jacket?
00:51:33Madame.
00:51:35Will you be good enough to go over these papers with M. Giron?
00:51:38I shall be delighted.
00:51:41And so will M. Giron.
00:51:51Well.
00:51:57M. Leval.
00:51:59There are several questions I've been wanting to ask you for quite a while.
00:52:03I understand you're from Marseille.
00:52:06Mm-hmm.
00:52:08In that case, you must be related to the Lavals of Marseille.
00:52:12Just a minute, please.
00:52:16I hope you find those figures correct.
00:52:19I hope so, too.
00:52:21Monsieur Leval, I have enjoyed the confidence of this family for more...
00:52:25For more than 40 years, sir madame told me.
00:52:28And I have known the Lavals of Marseille...
00:52:32For more than 30 years.
00:52:58Monsieur Leval.
00:53:00You seem to be persistently evading my questions.
00:53:03And you, M. Giron, seem to be persistently disturbing my examination of your reports.
00:53:07Examination? Monsieur Leval, what are you insinuating?
00:53:10I have enjoyed the confidence of this family for more than 40 years.
00:53:14How long have you enjoyed the confidence of madame?
00:53:17Three weeks, I believe.
00:53:19Two weeks and three days.
00:53:23Are you insinuating anything, M. Giron?
00:53:25No, not at all.
00:53:27Well, that's fine.
00:53:29Then you're not insinuating that I'm evading your questions...
00:53:32And I'm not insinuating that you won't let me examine your report.
00:53:35I was only asking if you were related to the Lavals of Marseille.
00:53:38And I was only asking you to let me examine your report without interruption.
00:53:41I don't see why any man should get excited because he's asked about his hometown.
00:53:45And I don't see any reason for any man to get nervous...
00:53:48Because someone checks over the figures of his report.
00:53:50Monsieur Leval, are you insinuating that this is not an honest report?
00:53:54I'm only insinuating that you are nervous.
00:53:56Nervous? Why should I be nervous?
00:53:58I don't know, M. Giron.
00:53:59Monsieur Leval, are you trying to say that there is anything in these figures to make me nervous?
00:54:03No, not at all.
00:54:08We'll keep the papers here.
00:54:09But...
00:54:10And tomorrow I'll call at your office and tell you all about the Lavals of Marseille.
00:54:13I...
00:54:14And there won't be any tea party to interrupt us.
00:54:28Goodbye, M. Giron.
00:54:38You know who's here?
00:54:41Come in.
00:54:43Monsieur Leval, M. Philibert would like very much to see you.
00:54:47In a moment.
00:54:50Philibert?
00:54:51Yes, Philibert.
00:54:52Venice. Grand Hotel.
00:54:54Room 253...
00:54:55579.
00:54:56Yes.
00:54:57Now, don't worry.
00:55:02I wanted to say goodbye to you.
00:55:03Goodbye, M. Philibert.
00:55:04But...
00:55:05Before I go, before I say goodbye, I want to ask you one question.
00:55:09Have you ever been in Venice?
00:55:11No.
00:55:12You've never been in Venice?
00:55:13No.
00:55:14Have you ever been in Vienna?
00:55:15No.
00:55:16Amsterdam?
00:55:17No.
00:55:18Constantinople?
00:55:19No.
00:55:20You've never been in Constantinople?
00:55:21No.
00:55:22But you have been in Venice?
00:55:23Yes.
00:55:24Then let me tell you Venice can't compare with Constantinople.
00:55:25But...
00:55:26In Constantinople, at least, you have streets, sultans, pashas, turbans, and herons.
00:55:32All kinds.
00:55:43Well...
00:55:45Constantinople.
00:55:57Constantinople.
00:56:08Elisee, 7689.
00:56:09We have to clear out.
00:56:11Railroad station.
00:56:12Ticket office, please.
00:56:13Did he recognize you?
00:56:14No, no, not yet.
00:56:15Two tickets to Berlin.
00:56:16First class and sleeper.
00:56:17Night train.
00:56:19Right.
00:56:20Right.
00:56:21Leave them in the name of...
00:56:23El Senor Ignacio Fernandez.
00:56:26Right.
00:56:28Spanish passport.
00:56:29Correct.
00:56:30Now, the train leaves...
00:56:31At 1220, I know.
00:56:32Look, at 2471.
00:56:34Two more days and we'd have had 750,000 francs more.
00:56:37Well, we'll have to take what's here.
00:56:38A bird in hand is worth two in jail.
00:56:39Hello?
00:56:40Is this a Spanish consulate?
00:56:41This is El Senor de Ignacio Fernandez.
00:56:43Mi esposo yocoré me sale esta noche para Alemania.
00:56:46Es demasiado tarde para que nos visie el pasaporte hoy.
00:56:49Gracias.
00:56:50Muchos gracias.
00:56:52How long will it take you to clean up the place?
00:56:54I don't know.
00:56:55Fortunately, she has a dinner engagement tonight.
00:56:56I'll meet you at the station at midnight.
00:56:59Hello?
00:57:00Yes?
00:57:01What?
00:57:03You found a handbag?
00:57:04Well, you're three weeks too late.
00:57:06Well, see you at the Berlin Express.
00:57:07By the way, how's your German?
00:57:08Großartig.
00:57:09Colossal.
00:57:10Auf Wiedersehen.
00:57:11Auf Wiedersehen.
00:57:12Auf Wiedersehen.
00:57:21Marchand 2911.
00:57:25Hello?
00:57:26Is this the Petit Flower Shop?
00:57:29I want you to take five dozen roses.
00:57:33Deep red roses.
00:57:36And I want you to put them in a basket.
00:57:38And send this basket tomorrow morning to Madame Collet.
00:57:43And attach a card.
00:57:47In memory of the late Monsieur Laval.
00:57:51Tomorrow morning.
00:57:52Ten o'clock.
00:57:54Yes.
00:57:55Huh?
00:57:58Oh.
00:58:00Charge to Madame Collet.
00:58:02Yes.
00:58:52Yes, Madame?
00:58:53What are you going to do with my day tomorrow, Monsieur Laval?
00:58:57Well, we'll have breakfast in the garden together.
00:59:00Mm-hmm.
00:59:02Then horseback riding together.
00:59:04Mm-hmm.
00:59:05Then lunch in the Bois.
00:59:07Together.
00:59:09Then I will say a little nap.
00:59:12Mm-hmm.
00:59:13Then I will say a little nap.
00:59:15Mm-hmm.
00:59:16Then I will say a little nap.
00:59:18Mm-hmm.
00:59:19Then I will say a little nap.
00:59:20Mm-hmm.
00:59:24How do you like my new dress?
00:59:27Beautiful.
00:59:28Hair?
00:59:30Marvelous.
00:59:32Lipstick?
00:59:36Crimson.
00:59:39Correct.
00:59:43Good night.
00:59:46Good night.
00:59:51Good night.
00:59:53Good night.
01:00:07Madame!
01:00:09Yes?
01:00:11Are you staying out late?
01:00:14Why do you ask?
01:00:17Do I have to answer?
01:00:20No.
01:00:50No.
01:01:16Yes, Chef?
01:01:18The car is waiting, Madame.
01:01:20I won't need the car. I'm not going.
01:01:23Very well, Madame.
01:01:33Jacques.
01:01:35Yes, Monsieur Laval?
01:01:36Madame has changed her mind. She'll be down in a minute.
01:01:38Very well, Monsieur.
01:01:45But I told you I don't want to go.
01:01:46But you have an engagement, and I don't want people to talk.
01:01:49Talk? About me? About us?
01:01:51Precisely.
01:01:53Afraid I'm ruining your reputation, Monsieur Laval?
01:01:56No, yours, Madame.
01:01:58Monsieur Laval, I have a confession to make to you.
01:02:02You like me.
01:02:04In fact, you're crazy about me.
01:02:07Otherwise, you wouldn't think about my reputation.
01:02:09Isn't that so?
01:02:12But incidentally, I don't like you.
01:02:14I don't like you at all.
01:02:16And I wouldn't hesitate one instant to ruin your reputation.
01:02:22Like that.
01:02:24You wouldn't?
01:02:25No, I wouldn't.
01:02:29Like that?
01:02:31Like that.
01:02:33I know all your tricks.
01:02:35And you're going to fall for them.
01:02:38So you think you can get me?
01:02:40Any minute I want.
01:02:42You're conceited.
01:02:44But attractive.
01:02:46Now, let me tell you...
01:02:47Shut up.
01:02:48Kiss me.
01:02:55Wasting all this marvelous time with arguments.
01:02:59Hello?
01:03:01Well, I'll try him again.
01:03:07Yes.
01:03:08He's in his office, but he's busy.
01:03:10Madame Collet.
01:03:11She's still here, but she's busy, too.
01:03:15I don't know.
01:03:16I don't know.
01:03:17I don't know.
01:03:18I don't know.
01:03:19I don't know.
01:03:20I don't know.
01:03:21I don't know.
01:03:22I don't know.
01:03:23I don't know.
01:03:24I don't know.
01:03:25I don't know.
01:03:26She's busy, too.
01:03:28Well, I'll ring again.
01:03:56Da-da-da.
01:03:57Da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
01:03:59La-la-la-la-la-la.
01:04:04La-la-la-la-la-la-la.
01:04:06La-la-la-la-la.
01:04:09La-la-la-la-la-la.
01:04:14La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
01:04:26Yes, Jacques?
01:04:27Monsieur Giron, he's downstairs.
01:04:29I'll tell him I can't see him now.
01:04:31Impossible.
01:04:32And, Jacques, dismiss the car.
01:04:33Madame is not going.
01:04:34Yes, Monsieur Leval.
01:04:40Jacques.
01:04:41Yes, Madame?
01:04:42Yes, Madame.
01:04:44Don't dismiss the car.
01:04:45I'll be down in a few minutes.
01:04:47Yes, Madame.
01:04:49I want you to stay, Mariette.
01:04:51You've got to stay.
01:04:52You can't go now.
01:04:53I must go.
01:04:54I'm crazy about you.
01:04:55I know it.
01:04:56I love you.
01:04:57I believe you.
01:04:58Then why do you want to go?
01:05:00Because I want to make it tough for you.
01:05:13We have a long time ahead of us, Gaspard.
01:05:16Weeks, months, years.
01:05:3211 o'clock.
01:05:47Gubler, 7879.
01:05:55Hello?
01:05:56Oh, darling.
01:05:58Oh, darling, it's good to hear your voice.
01:06:00I thought you'd never call.
01:06:02Well, I tried to get you.
01:06:04What?
01:06:06What?
01:06:10Tomorrow morning?
01:06:12Why?
01:06:14Why?
01:06:19Of course.
01:06:21Uh-huh.
01:06:25Uh-huh.
01:06:37No doubt about it.
01:06:38It's that secretary.
01:06:42Tony, the kind of men women fall for.
01:06:46No color, no sparkle.
01:06:48But dependable.
01:06:49The type they marry.
01:06:51You know, I'm not the marrying type.
01:06:54I like to take my fun and leave it.
01:06:59Nice suit.
01:07:01You like it?
01:07:03Smart.
01:07:04Londoner.
01:07:05Ogle be an Oglethorpe.
01:07:07I thought so.
01:07:11You know, he's really not such a bad fellow.
01:07:13Just dull.
01:07:15Insignificant.
01:07:16He's a secretary.
01:07:18He always was a secretary, always will be.
01:07:21Funny.
01:07:22The first time I saw him, I thought he was a doctor.
01:07:42Thompson's.
01:07:44Participatively Thompson's.
01:08:12I'm very sorry, but this is not the time, M. Girard.
01:08:15I've got to see you.
01:08:16But not now.
01:08:17Right now.
01:08:18It's very important, M. de Val.
01:08:22It may be important to you, M. Girard.
01:08:25No, to you, M. Monescu.
01:08:30Mariette, Mariette.
01:08:31Please, please, please believe us.
01:08:33No, no, no, please.
01:08:34It's absolutely ridiculous, and I don't believe it.
01:08:36You have no idea.
01:08:37I'm tired anyway, so please leave me alone.
01:08:40I had a lovely time.
01:08:46So I said to myself, all right.
01:08:48If he wants to look at him, let him look at him.
01:08:50There's no harm in that.
01:08:51Then he said, say ah, and I said ah,
01:08:53and that's all I can remember.
01:08:55You will pack your things at once.
01:08:58Yes, M. sir.
01:08:59And you'll be out of here by tomorrow morning.
01:09:01Very well, M. sir.
01:09:02Otherwise, I will call the police.
01:09:05Yes, M. sir.
01:09:06M. Girard.
01:09:07What is it?
01:09:09You have enjoyed the confidence of this family
01:09:11for more than 40 years.
01:09:13You must be a man of about 65.
01:09:16Well?
01:09:17Let's see.
01:09:19You will be exactly 87 when you come out of prison.
01:09:23What do you mean?
01:09:24You say I'm a crook.
01:09:25I know it.
01:09:26Then why don't you call the police?
01:09:27Why don't you call the police?
01:09:29I know it.
01:09:30Then why don't you call the police?
01:09:32I know it.
01:09:33Then why don't you call the police?
01:09:34Why don't you call the police?
01:09:35I'll tell you why you crook you, monsieur.
01:09:39Monescu.
01:09:40Monsieur Monescu.
01:09:42Just call me Gaston.
01:09:48Goodbye, Adolphe.
01:10:02Don't you dare to call me Adolphe.
01:10:33Are you insane?
01:10:50You have to get out of here at once.
01:10:52She may be back at any minute.
01:10:54What time is your rendezvous?
01:10:56Now, Lily.
01:10:57Yes, monsieur Collet.
01:10:58You have to get out of here.
01:11:00That's what I'm here for, to get out.
01:11:02I want to get away from here, from you, just as fast as I can.
01:11:05And as far as a hundred thousand francs will take me.
01:11:08Sixty-five and thirty-five to the left.
01:11:11I wouldn't fall for another man if he were the biggest crook on earth.
01:11:14Seventy-six, eighty-four.
01:11:17What has she got that I haven't got?
01:11:19You must listen to me.
01:11:20Shut up. Don't make up any stories.
01:11:21But listen.
01:11:22Don't you dare lie to me.
01:11:23I know you love me.
01:11:26Oh, why don't you say something?
01:11:28Come on, be brilliant.
01:11:30Talk yourself out of it.
01:11:31Bluff yourself in.
01:11:32Shut up, you liar, you.
01:11:34This is what I want.
01:11:35This is real.
01:11:36Money.
01:11:37Cash.
01:11:58Good evening, madame.
01:12:28Good evening, madame.
01:12:58When a lady takes her jewels off in a gentleman's room, where does she put them?
01:13:14On the... on the night table.
01:13:18But I don't want to be a lady.
01:13:28May I?
01:13:29Oh, let me have a little fun.
01:13:36Please.
01:13:43Sixty-five.
01:13:44Thirty-three.
01:13:47No.
01:13:48Thirty-five.
01:13:49Oh.
01:13:53Thirty-five to the left.
01:13:56You know, Francois thinks you're a very remarkable man.
01:14:01He was at dinner tonight.
01:14:02Hmm?
01:14:06Seventy-six.
01:14:08Mariette.
01:14:09Yes, Gaston?
01:14:11What would you say if you found your safe had been robbed?
01:14:15I wouldn't say anything.
01:14:17I would act.
01:14:19Call the police?
01:14:21Instantly.
01:14:23Mm-hmm.
01:14:25But why talk about robbery on a night like this?
01:14:29You look beautiful.
01:14:34Mariette.
01:14:36Yes, Gaston?
01:14:40You have been robbed.
01:14:43For years.
01:14:45And not a hundred thousand francs, but millions.
01:14:48And you know who did it?
01:14:50Adolphe.
01:14:52Adolphe?
01:14:53Adolphe J. Girard.
01:14:57And you expect me to believe that?
01:14:59Naturally not.
01:15:01But I expect the police to believe it.
01:15:08No.
01:15:10Why not?
01:15:11He's a thief.
01:15:12He's a criminal.
01:15:13I don't believe it.
01:15:14Then why are you afraid to let me prove it?
01:15:17It would be a terrible scandal, wouldn't it?
01:15:19Girard.
01:15:20Yes, Girard.
01:15:21Chairman of the Board of Directors of Collet & Company.
01:15:24Honorary President of the Orphan's Asylum.
01:15:27Adolphe J. Girard, distinguished citizen.
01:15:31Well, shall I call the police?
01:15:37I see.
01:15:39You have to be in the social register to keep out of jail.
01:15:42But when a man starts at the bottom and works his way up,
01:15:44a self-made crook,
01:15:46then you say, call the police, put him behind bars,
01:15:49lock him up.
01:15:51Very well, madame.
01:15:53I am Gaston Monescu.
01:15:56The police will be delighted to verify my identity.
01:16:16Gaston.
01:16:18Did you take the money?
01:16:22Yes.
01:16:26You wanted 100,000 francs.
01:16:30And I thought you wanted me.
01:16:41I came here to rob you.
01:16:44But unfortunately, I fell in love with you.
01:16:49Not yet.
01:16:54Why did you take the money?
01:17:05Why did you take the money?
01:17:30Madame.
01:17:32The only thing that seems to stand between you and romance
01:17:36is 100,000 francs.
01:17:39Well, he didn't take it.
01:17:42I took it.
01:17:44All by myself.
01:17:47Now you can have your romance.
01:17:50I think you'd better go.
01:17:52Ever had a romance with a crook?
01:17:54I beg your pardon?
01:17:55Let me give you a little advice.
01:17:58When you embrace him, be sure to put on gloves.
01:18:01It would be too bad if your fingerprints were found...
01:18:04Madame Zavoutier.
01:18:06Or whatever your name is.
01:18:08I thank you for your free advice, but...
01:18:10I must ask you to go.
01:18:12You have your money?
01:18:13I don't want your money.
01:18:17You wanted to buy him for 50 francs.
01:18:20Well, you can have him for nothing.
01:18:24And you...
01:18:25Lily.
01:18:26Leave me alone.
01:18:27You were willing to sacrifice 100,000 francs for her.
01:18:31And you...
01:18:33You paid 125,000 francs for a handbag.
01:18:36Well, you can pay 100,000 for him.
01:18:45Goodbye, Madame Collet.
01:18:48And company.
01:19:00Goodbye.
01:19:30Goodbye.
01:19:41Goodbye.
01:19:54Goodbye.
01:19:57It could have been marvelous.
01:19:59Divine.
01:20:00Wonderful.
01:20:04But tomorrow morning...
01:20:06If you should wake up from your dreams...
01:20:08And hear a knock...
01:20:09And the door opens...
01:20:11And there, instead of a maid with a breakfast tray...
01:20:14Stands a policeman with a warrant...
01:20:17Then you'll be glad you are alone.
01:20:23But it could have been glorious.
01:20:26Lovely.
01:20:28Divine.
01:20:32But that terrible policeman...
01:20:38Goodbye.
01:20:50Do you know what you're missing?
01:20:55No.
01:20:59That's what you're missing.
01:21:02Your gift to her.
01:21:06With the compliments...
01:21:08Of Collet...
01:21:10And company.
01:21:28Goodbye.
01:21:58Goodbye.
