00:01:39Your broth
00:01:43It should be drunk piping hot.
00:01:46Otherwise, it won't do you any good.

00:02:09Music
00:02:27Music
00:05:29Isn't that the truth?
00:05:32I do believe that the secrets of happiness are not unknown to you.
00:05:38You call simple precautions secrets?
00:05:41Give me one.
00:05:43But the simplest thing is to take care of yourself in all circumstances.
00:05:46Yes, the measure of happiness that has been given to us is quite small, my dear niece.
00:05:55So I'm being careful not to lose anything?
00:06:03And was it one of your precautions not to get married?
00:06:10Please excuse me.
00:06:10A pertinent question.
00:06:19In the knots of the hymen, what good is it for me to get involved?
00:06:22I am one, that should be enough.
00:06:27If there were two of me, my condition would be worse.
00:06:31That's enough of me to make me furious.
00:06:34Your mastery of epigrams gets you out of any situation.
00:06:39Nevertheless, you know how to make women adore you.
00:06:42Maybe.
00:06:43But we marry them.
00:06:45And besides, we know them.
00:06:46Marriage is a natural thing, though.
00:06:48We don't like it in the plan.
00:06:50I say, the idea of getting married must have crossed your mind.
00:06:55Some peas, yes, in the morning.
00:06:56Voltaire is said to have told the King of Prussia that you were the most universal mind that the century of Louis XIV produced.
00:07:18Compliments weren't in his nature,
00:07:20I deduce that something bad must have happened to him.
00:07:24The cold, perhaps.
00:07:26I am always surprised that my sessions at the academy do not tire you out more.
00:07:33Why do you want to?
00:07:35No more enemies, please.
00:07:56It seems you have forgotten what Messrs. Boileau and La Bruyère said about you in a very unpleasant way.
00:08:02Do not let childhood be forgotten by the roots of my adversaries.
00:08:06I forgave them and it did me a lot of good.
00:08:09No, today I only blame them for all being dead.
00:08:15Take care, always so kindly, dear child.
00:08:19Well, for me, it's the gentleman I find too kind.
00:08:30He doesn't hold a grudge against anyone and is content with everything.
00:08:34I sometimes wonder if these are manifestations of immense kindness.
00:08:38or no kindness at all.
00:08:44Sometimes I have trouble getting the dust off it.
00:08:50He scares me.
00:08:52I believe Monsieur de Fontenelle was even more impressed by his uncle than you were.
00:08:56I understand.
00:08:56Being the nephew of the great Corneille is quite a situation.
00:09:01For you too, madam.
00:09:04Oh, little niece of Corneille's nephew, that's a discreet place.
00:09:26But what are you doing?
00:09:34The gentleman had had enough.
00:09:35How could he have had enough?
00:09:37Ah yes, he doesn't want to see it anymore, that trunk.
00:09:3960 years old, apparently.
00:09:40But it's full.
00:09:42Oh yes, for sure, madam, it's full.
00:09:44You can really feel it when you're wearing it.
00:09:46That's exactly what the gentleman didn't want to read.
00:09:48But what are you talking about, Simon?
00:09:50Those are the gentleman's newspapers that are in this trunk.
00:09:52Well, I'm not saying no.
00:09:53I say that he never wanted to read them.
00:09:55Who told you this nonsense?
00:09:58It's... it's him.
00:10:01Who is he?
00:10:02Mr. de Fontenelle.
00:10:07It's amusing, but it doesn't hold water.
00:10:09Why wouldn't he have read them?
00:10:11The gentleman would not want us to repeat what he told only to us.
00:10:15Repeat it anyway, madam is asking you to.
00:10:18Well...
00:10:19He didn't read them because he suspected they weren't saying anything good about him in them.
00:10:22He was even being attacked.
00:10:25After all, that's pretty much in keeping with his style.
00:10:33Never go looking for anything that might upset your mood.
00:10:37That's all he is, indeed.
00:10:39Clear out! Go!
00:10:40And you'll be sweeping again!

00:11:15Subtitling by Radio-Canada
00:11:49Well done !
00:11:50What a voice!
00:11:53Thank you, sir.
00:11:54Stay, it was normal.
00:11:55You imagined that we couldn't stay here.
00:11:57But excuse me.
00:11:59Did you scare her?
00:12:00No, she's just a little wild thing, that's all.
00:12:05Who was it?
00:12:06We were expecting you for supper.
00:12:08I don't need to eat dinner anymore.
00:12:09And why is that?
00:12:10It seems that my age requires temperance.
00:12:14What a great deal.
00:12:15What is age, when glory surpasses it?
00:12:18Would you nevertheless accept a few frisky girls?
00:12:21Go this way.
00:12:22Monsieur de Fontenelle has identified you as being the most witty members of the Assembly.
00:12:29The most witty members of Madame Geoffrin's salon.
00:12:33This is Mrs. Geoffrin.
00:12:35Monsieur de Fontenelle surpasses us all, Vallière.
00:12:38Instead, tell him what your conversation was like during dinner.
00:12:41What were you arguing about?
00:12:43We thought it was very difficult for a woman to detect feelings beneath gallant behavior.
00:12:49Mr. de Vallière argued that this was yet another trial of men's sincerity.
00:12:54So, what did the past century think about it?
00:12:56Well, I...
00:12:57I do not observe feelings the way I observe planets.
00:13:02You don't have to observe what you are simply given to feel?
00:13:06Certainly, but it is presumptuous to claim that I have already felt anything.
00:13:11For 80 years I have relegated feeling to my poetry.
00:13:15And you call that having lived?
00:13:21I believe I was as attentive as was appropriate with women.
00:13:24But love...
00:13:27I can't hear properly.
00:13:29I was talking about love.
00:13:32He and I are incompatible.
00:13:35Yet it is said that your favorite novel is none other than The Princess of Clèves.
00:13:38Its style is unsurpassed.
00:13:44It is even more lively.
00:13:46It couldn't be simpler.
00:13:48So, bigger.
00:13:50But The Princess is a love story.
00:13:52Which did not take place.
00:13:54What wisdom.
00:13:56Since you maintain that feelings are foreign to you,
00:13:58I suppose these are the ideas you favor?
00:14:01No more than that.
00:14:02Defending theories means responding, complaining, accusing, suspecting.
00:14:08I love my rest too much.
00:14:11And besides, why argue?
00:14:16Everything is possible and everyone is right.
00:14:20Come on, come on.
00:14:22I know some ideas that do not leave you indifferent.
00:14:24If I told you that Mr. d'Alembert came to read us his preliminary speech to the encyclopedia yesterday
00:14:30and that the Chevalier de Jocourt showed us some admirable illustrations of the trades.
00:14:35It was deadly boring.
00:14:38You still seem very much alive to me.
00:14:41But what exactly are you looking for with this encyclopedia?
00:14:44To instruct the mediocre about things they won't understand?
00:14:48What could be more ridiculous than talking about philosophy with workers?
00:14:52Entertainment and games, that's what the people want.
00:14:56Such remarks will get you banned from the Academy, I guarantee it.
00:15:01First, you'll have to make people forget your libertine works.
00:15:04And I fully intend to be born from the Academy.
00:15:06My works are light, I admit, but composing them is just as hard work, believe me.
00:15:12A single page takes me three or four hours.
00:15:16You will eventually make up for all this lost time.
00:15:18But I am more modest than you imagine, sir.
00:15:20You wouldn't have dared to say it to yourself, sir.
00:15:25All these women fighting over old Fontenelle in the hope that he will die in their living room.
00:15:33Poor Vallière, he thinks he's of a superior mind, but he sorely lacks superiority.
00:15:39And he lacks spirit.
00:15:41Come, let's hear the music up close.
00:15:44She's unbearable enough from a distance.
00:15:46Do you prefer painting?
00:15:48Oh, the painting, the walls are spoiled by too many portraits.
00:15:52Sculpture?
00:15:54I let the statues look at me.
00:15:58So the arts don't affect you at all.
00:16:01I can't fit so many things into my life.
00:16:04Later, perhaps.
00:16:10Your strength lies in placing yourself beyond reach in all circumstances.
00:16:13Nothing affects you.
00:16:14I admire you.
00:16:17Good evening, dear Fontenelle.
00:16:19Pardon ?
00:16:20I wished you good evening.
00:16:21Good evening.
00:16:22Good evening.
00:16:22Good evening.
00:16:22Good evening.
00:16:51Look, Monsieur de Fontenelle.
00:17:04There are no whispered words that you will not hear.
00:17:07With, as has often been observed, even more precision than those who hear normally.
00:17:12This is because the pavilion is very wide.
00:17:15Doesn't it look like a cornucopia?
00:17:17which, instead of yielding its fruits, would hoard subjects and verbs
00:17:20through its wide mouth so you can hear them.
00:17:24Now then, sir, would you like to adjust the ear trumpet to your ear?
00:17:27The smaller end slides in quite naturally.
00:17:31Go for it.
00:17:33Yeah.
00:17:35So, how do you hear me, Monsieur de Fontenelle?
00:17:37Too good!
00:17:39Ah yes, I'm confused, it's because I...
00:17:41This is natural when speaking to someone with impaired hearing.
00:17:44Well, I can't believe my ears.
00:17:55What is this?
00:17:56We were asked to come and collect it for Mr. de Fontenelle.
00:17:59But who asked you?
00:18:01Adjust, remove.
00:18:05Adjust, remove.
00:18:07There you go, isn't the device too heavy, sir?
00:18:09Sir! Sir!
00:18:11Mrs. Geoffrin sends you...
00:18:13Madame Geoffrin is sending you something.
00:18:25Oh.
00:18:28I can read much better now.
00:18:29I was able to acquire this portrait of your friend Lefrainois without too much difficulty from what remains of his family.
00:18:37I did it with the intention of offering it to you.
00:18:39Convinced that the face of the one who was closest to you is such a great friend, you will remember those long moments you spent together saying nothing.
00:18:47And yet, I understand you.
00:18:49As only discretion and innocence know how to understand each other.
00:18:52Today marks twenty years since his death.
00:18:58I'm going to thank Mrs. Geoffrin right away.
00:19:03Why did you spend those moments saying nothing?
00:19:07Mr. Lefrainois was so quiet.
00:19:09Hmm.
00:19:11The portrait is strikingly lifelike.
00:19:15Look.
00:19:16It looks like he's going to shut up.
00:19:18What a fine group this is.
00:19:30And all these people here to welcome me?
00:19:33We are always delighted to see you, Father.
00:19:36Alright.
00:19:37Alright.
00:19:39Alright.
00:19:44I am referring to that letter to the Marquis de Laffard that the small reservoir has just published.
00:19:47Well.
00:19:49What do you mean, well?
00:19:50What does this letter say?
00:19:52You're joking, everyone claims it's yours.
00:19:55Did anyone see me write it?
00:19:56I can tell, for one, that it's from your pen.
00:19:59Speaking with such insolence is something only you or Voltaire could do.
00:20:02A letter that describes the Lord's embarrassment at the time of the resurrection identifies its author.
00:20:07Will you tell me its name at the end?
00:20:09Mock, mock, I see that under the guise of showing things of science, which holy hearts understand nothing of,
00:20:14It is well understood that throwing the table is a good idea.
00:20:17Why explain what should remain inexplicable?
00:20:20You sometimes remind me of certain sailors whose cases would let water through.
00:20:25but which would prohibit bailing.
00:20:27Yes, no consideration, it is said that Voltaire was born from your works.
00:20:36Let them talk.
00:20:38You cannot accept that your work brings potion to this empire.
00:20:41I reproach myself for you, I don't smoke that...
00:20:44Yes, that's true, but you can't ignore that Voltaire speaks of God as if he didn't exist.
00:20:49Like what ?
00:20:50What malice that you must make me repeat these things, as if he did not exist.
00:20:56Voltaire does not deny, he questions.
00:21:01It is your story about oracles that has caused the harm.
00:21:04I do not turn to my oracles in the face of ignorance and foolishness,
00:21:09exploited in bad faith.
00:21:11Certainly, but...
00:21:12But this show seems to me to have a great future ahead of it.
00:21:16Well, precisely, weak and impure minds were able to deduce from this that God did not exist.
00:21:19because we wanted to believe it.
00:21:21My friend, ignorance is demonstrated less by the things that are
00:21:29and whose reason is unknown to us except through those which do not exist.
00:21:34And we find the reason.
00:21:37Because not only do we lack the principles that lead to truth,
00:21:41but we have others that get along very well with the fake.
00:21:51Father, will he stay for dinner?
00:21:53Does he? In your servant's presence.
00:21:55Well, who is there?
00:21:56Dinner!
00:21:57Well !
00:21:58Would you like some asparagus?
00:22:00Oh, I love it.
00:22:02I love it.
00:22:04Me too.
00:22:04That, with butter, she says.
00:22:07Yes, I prefer it with oil.
00:22:08With butter, they retain their firmness.
00:22:10And with oil, the flavor comes through more.
00:22:12It digests just as well with butter.
00:22:15My niece only likes them with oil.
00:22:17Okay, what should I do?
00:22:20Half with oil, half with butter.
00:22:25I know your way well, you know.
00:22:28Nothing vehement ever.
00:22:29Your impertinence is extremely subtle, barely noticeable.
00:22:32No sparkle, no taca.
00:22:34If they don't entertain the most terrible ideas, the most terrible!
00:22:38I do not profess any ideas.
00:22:40I observe and I smile.
00:22:43That's quite enough.
00:22:45Hey you, you mix everything up without seeming to.
00:22:47That's the truth.
00:22:48Reasoning, reasoning, that's your only defense.
00:22:51I maintain that it is bad to reason constantly.
00:22:53That this is the most insidious way to gradually drift away
00:22:55of the path that has been packed down for us.
00:22:58By whom?
00:23:01You see, you're still reasoning.
00:23:04I'm going to wonder if all my efforts will ever be enough.
00:23:07For your salvation!
00:23:08What if...
00:23:14And...
00:23:16François-Azen!
00:23:25The asparagus, all in oil.
00:23:29No, no, tell me at the garden entrance.
00:23:42Finally, here you are!
00:24:00We were just waiting for you to come for supper.
00:24:03Wait, any news from that good Father Chalon?
00:24:07He is back on his feet, so to speak, in a somewhat round shape.
00:24:13You keep mistreating him.
00:24:15I'm not asking what he did to you.
00:24:17He scares me!
00:24:18There it is!
00:24:22Dear Fontenelle, I don't believe I've introduced you to Isabelle.
00:24:32The daughter of my sister, Count Ella Torre, arrived from Florence last week.
00:24:36Ah! Asparagus!
00:24:41It is said, sir, that you could not resist a cruel word of which Abbé Chalon was the innocent victim.
00:24:53Cruelty is not my way, sir.
00:24:55But if that's true, what I said seems to have put asparagus back into fashion.
00:24:59Mr. Philosopher, it seems you refuse to believe in love.
00:25:07Please.
00:25:08Isn't it true that love exists?
00:25:11I admit that at seven minutes, I no longer have any doubts.
00:25:19I was told about a charming disentery that concerns you, dear Fontenelle.
00:25:23Someone wishing to invest money was advised against doing so on your life.
00:25:28except as a lost cause, because you get younger as you get older.
00:25:32The other day, I wanted to move a piece of family furniture, an old secretary desk that looked brand new.
00:25:38Well, it collapsed as soon as we touched it.
00:25:40It was rotten.
00:25:44I'm afraid of getting old.
00:25:46For women, the disgrace of the senses is a horrible thing.
00:25:52A foolish thing to do.
00:25:53To avoid the innocence of aging, one must ensure their regular functioning.
00:25:58To nurture them, in a way.
00:26:00Following your advice, we would quickly fall into excess, it seems to me.
00:26:04The man of quality has tempered his boldness.
00:26:07I fear, miss, that our conversation bores you.
00:26:11Yours, you mean.
00:26:15When beauty and youth come together so magnificently,
00:26:18Do we want to hear dry, lifeless words?
00:26:22Do we even want to hear anything at all?
00:26:25Words always delay actions.
00:26:27Grand-pense, your niece.
00:26:32She'll tell you herself, Baron Grimm.
00:26:35I'm not yet at the point of taking her advice to heart.
00:26:38That doesn't mean we can't sort through them.
00:26:40To recognize the truth in what is generous, sensitive, and devoted.
00:26:45In short, in what comes from the heart.
00:26:48You might say that all beings possess a heart.
00:26:51Well, no.
00:26:53Science still hides it from us, but some people are truly devoid of it.
00:26:57Really ?
00:26:58I know some personally.
00:26:59In some faraway lands, I think.
00:27:01Not at all, right here.
00:27:03You might ask.
00:27:04What's the point? He's already recognized himself.
00:27:06I am determined to give a presentation at the academy on the intelligence of the asparagus.
00:27:20It is a particularly tasty vegetable, but also a difficult one to eat.
00:27:29In short, made to please us, but with a discretion that delights.
00:27:35All you need to do is know how asparagus grows.
00:27:39They poke their heads out, first to see if they are bothering anyone.
00:27:46And then, knowing they were expected, they came.
00:27:54All of it.
00:27:58No other vegetable possesses this elegance.
00:28:04To be honest, sir, it's not exactly about the academy and asparagus that we were expecting you to talk.
00:28:09On what else?
00:28:10Well, based on what Mr. de Vallière says.
00:28:12The absence of a heart.
00:28:14You must have misheard.
00:28:16How so?
00:28:17Mr. de Vallière believes that this does not exist because the heart, like the brain, are organs that are still foreign to him.
00:28:26I understand that for the moment, he is only interested in the area between the hip and the knee.
00:28:37Bless the spirit, sir. It is he who will kill you.
00:28:40So don't even think about the academy anymore.
00:28:43You are already immortal.

00:36:25...
00:36:26...
00:36:49...
00:36:51I confess, I don't know what it is.
00:36:55I believe you. Only a woman can know.
00:37:00Okay, I see. I'm not being entirely honest.
00:37:04Pardon ?
00:37:06I didn't entirely invent this marquise.
00:37:11I was inspired by a real person.
00:37:14Who ?
00:37:17A lady from my province,
00:37:18with whom many thought I was...
00:37:23diligent.
00:37:25Were you?
00:37:27I make sure that my manners are always honest and obliging.
00:37:33Young people don't hear that anymore.
00:37:36The only interest of young people is to escape feelings.
00:37:41Finally, sir,
00:37:44fleeing from feelings
00:37:46What strange advice.
00:37:49What does it matter?
00:37:51Good advice is recognized by the fact that it is never followed.
00:37:54and the bad ones to whom everyone hastened to precede them.
00:37:59I have delayed you far too long, sir.
00:38:02Did I say something to displease you?
00:38:04The night is cool, suddenly.
00:38:08On the contrary, she is very gentle.
00:38:11I'm worried about catching a cold.
00:38:14I would hate to give away your attentive point regarding your health.
00:38:18The third act begins with a scene between the marquise and Dubois.
00:38:31Drink.
00:38:34It's scorching hot.
00:38:39You seem to care less about heat and cold in some houses I know.
00:38:47I need to write a letter.
00:38:49Come on.
00:38:50It's hot.
00:39:06It's hot.
00:39:27My poor friend, you are in a sorry state.
00:39:31Because of the humidity in your garden.
00:39:33What are you telling me?
00:39:36Weaknesses often come from unexpected places.
00:39:40My niece asked me to deliver this letter to you.
00:39:43She thanks you for staying to listen to her sing.
00:39:46I believe I acted correctly by demanding that Isabelle move in with me.
00:39:51She could not stay in Florence any longer.
00:39:54His mother would never have found a cure for his illness there.
00:39:57So what ailment is she suffering from?
00:40:00What do you want?
00:40:01Love, my friend.
00:40:04Love.
00:40:06Isabelle recently experienced the downside of a passion she thought she shared.
00:40:10She caught the man who had sworn his love to her in the arms of another woman.
00:40:14Finally, when I said in the arms, I hope you understand me.
00:40:17My sister became alarmed because Isabelle's health was showing worrying signs after this unpleasant setback.
00:40:22We couldn't count the number of times Isabelle was caught in tears.
00:40:28Not to mention that not-so-distant day when she wanted to throw herself into the river.
00:40:33Finally !
00:40:34I rescued my niece from her torment and now she is cured.
00:40:37I see you are tired, dear Fontenelle.
00:40:42What did you say?
00:40:44Oh yes.
00:40:46Love.
00:40:47Love.
00:40:51Will you forgive me, sir, for such inexplicable behavior?
00:40:56while you were doing me the favor of your immense knowledge.
00:41:00It will take a lot of courage for me to make the repairs in front of you.
00:41:05even though I cannot resign myself to never seeing you again.
00:41:17I may have already been disconnected from LANology but- daqui by labirine is enjoying himself.
00:41:27We are corresponding...
00:41:32…
00:41:38…
00:41:41…
00:41:43…
00:41:44Madam, Miss, Monsieur de Fontenelle has instructed me to deliver this to you.
00:42:14Ah, Monsieur de Fontenelle, it is Viannaise to see you again. Monsieur Diderot and Monsieur d'Alembert were just saying that you were their master.
00:42:26It is no small privilege, madam, to have been born before everyone else.
00:42:32Fontenelle, you look well again. My niece will be delighted to see you again.
00:42:39This generation of young people is making our heads spin.
00:42:44Allow me to salute the freest and most advanced spirit of our time.
00:42:55Mr. d'Alembert, you do me too much honor.
00:42:59Our encyclopedia is indebted to you without faith.
00:43:01You'll see that my age will eventually pay off.
00:43:10I am not one of those men who flaunt their certainties.
00:43:14But I know that it is through knowledge and reasoning that the world will emerge from darkness.
00:43:20Our articles will open his eyes and our subscribers will be more than just readers.
00:43:25Do you understand, they will pass it on, they will bear witness.
00:43:31Mr. de Fontenelle!
00:43:33I am told that you are sparing no effort to support us.
00:43:38Thank you a thousand times over.
00:43:40This first volume of your encyclopedia delights me, Mr. Diderot.
00:43:45It's a huge undertaking.
00:43:47Perhaps too vast.
00:43:49In any case, it will bring you little satisfaction.
00:43:52Men like you are made for great adventures and the rule of 3D.
00:43:59I am unaware of this rule.
00:44:01Disappointment, difficulty, discouragement.
00:44:05Well, I'll add a fourth one.
00:44:07Parade.
00:44:08I want to take it up.
00:44:10You are right.
00:44:11He had fallen quite low lately.
00:44:14Charming painting.
00:44:21Which one is holding the other?
00:44:22Oh, Diderot will always prefer Fontenelle to Voltaire.
00:44:26It's better to pet a cat than a scorpion.
00:44:36Mr. de Fontenelle!
00:44:38You can see I'm confused.
00:44:40Oh, I want to assure you that the idea you have of me is not correct.
00:44:45But since I didn't see anything...
00:44:47Oh, the day you surprised me, my husband had insulted me.
00:44:52Imagine my distress.
00:44:53How could I, madam?
00:44:55It was because he had inflicted this affront on me that I took revenge on him.
00:44:59Imagine that such revenge would cost you dearly.
00:45:04No one has ever died from being unfaithful, don't you dare?
00:45:07Some people like me to be alive, madam.
00:45:09My husband called me a whore.
00:45:12Yet, I have felt affection and tenderness for all the men I have had the privilege to know.
00:45:19In this case, madam, it's not an insult, it's recognition.
00:45:22A little bit of coolness, a little bit of coolness will do me good.
00:45:25What situation, sir?
00:45:37How so?
00:45:39This meeting that you arranged for me in the utmost secrecy.
00:45:42Following a letter from you and your aunt who gave it to me, I still believe that you were simply sending me thanks.
00:45:50I owed you an apology.
00:45:53I can hardly imagine what you thought of me after that evening.
00:45:57But what I thought at that moment has nothing to do with what I believe now.
00:46:03What do you mean ?
00:46:04That without evoking a feeling that torments you more than it should,
00:46:11I would not have witnessed a departure that resembled an escape.
00:46:18So you know, I'm not as strong as I think I am.
00:46:24I think I'm forgetting, I'm just digging.
00:46:27It is true, I believe that this will be my greatest glory.
00:46:30By what force must one be inhabited so much?
00:46:34I see nothing ordinary in the movements of the heart.
00:46:37but I preferred to keep it to myself.
00:46:40As if we had a choice.
00:46:42We have it.
00:46:44You should never seek to do anything but simplify your life.
00:46:49For my part, I wanted to avoid a love story.
00:46:51who would have left me with nothing but pants.
00:46:54I know myself too well.
00:46:57But you liked it, sir.
00:46:58He had returned.
00:47:01Would you argue the opposite?
00:47:02It's a very personal subject for someone who hates talking about themselves.
00:47:07So, you could know everything about me.
00:47:09and to confide nothing in me in return.
00:47:13Who will be interested in my existence?
00:47:18Me.
00:47:22Why, I beg you?
00:47:25I don't know.
00:47:27Or rather,
00:47:29for the first time,
00:47:31I feel understood.
00:47:35It's true, we don't know each other very well.
00:47:37And yet,
00:47:39It seems to me that we have already shared a little bit of our lives.
00:47:46So you don't want to tell me anything?
00:47:48A day.
00:47:50What day?
00:47:52Another day.
00:47:55Protect yourself from secrets.
00:48:00It is with this kind of reasoning that my little niece claims that everything has been successful for me.
00:48:04I fear that the affliction she brings me
00:48:06erases me, sees things askance.
00:48:10In what way would she be wrong?
00:48:11Just look at how I traveled the path.
00:48:16When I wanted to pursue a career as a lawyer in my hometown,
00:48:20I lost the only case that was entrusted to me.
00:48:23What does it matter! You had poetry.
00:48:26I gave her no more than she gave me back.
00:48:29I am pretending to be detached today,
00:48:31But I know how right the critics were.
00:48:35My works merely imitated
00:48:36the worst that was portrayed on the theatres.
00:48:40The academy accepted you, however.
00:48:43After four attempts,
00:48:45They would have known that I was going to live to a ripe old age.
00:48:48that they were making me wait longer.
00:48:51You are a great scholar.
00:48:54Without reading your works,
00:48:55would I have an aptitude for science?
00:48:57And would I have committed...
00:48:59What is it?
00:49:01A short treatise.
00:49:03A short treatise.
00:49:06Two remarks rather on the refraction of light.
00:49:08Would I have the honor of reading them?
00:49:12Would you accept in exchange
00:49:13to teach me how to observe the stars?
00:49:17I'm too clumsy.
00:49:18Observing...
00:49:19Isabelle!
00:49:20Stargazing, yes.
00:49:22I have little experience teaching anything there.
00:49:25Isabelle!
00:49:26Come on, accept it.
00:49:28What stubbornness!
00:49:29Isabelle!
00:49:31So be it.
00:49:32What was the tune you were singing?
00:49:37It's a tune that's sung in Florence
00:49:43and which speaks of love.
00:49:46Isabelle!
00:49:47Who knows at what moment
00:49:54of the succession of animal generations
00:49:56Where are we at?
00:49:58Who knows if this deformed biped
00:50:00which is only four feet tall
00:50:02who is still called a man
00:50:03and which would soon lose that name
00:50:05by deforming a little more
00:50:07Isn't this the image of a species that passes away?
00:50:11Diderot is wonderful.
00:50:13It is thanks to men like him
00:50:14that the world will open up.
00:50:15The world, do you realize?
00:50:17Who can I?
00:50:18We are going to discover so many new things
00:50:20I can't wait and I really want to.
00:50:22My son, desires are useless.
00:50:25when you can have it all.
00:50:26Who knows if everything isn't tending to shrink?
00:50:28to a large, inert, olive-free sediment?
00:50:31Who knows how long this inertia will last?
00:50:35Who knows what new race it might be?
00:50:41can result from such a large cluster
00:50:43sensitive and alive fists.
00:50:52It will be easier to teach mechanics
00:50:55than tolerance.
00:50:57Probably.
00:50:59It will be necessary, though.
00:51:01Perhaps that is our true purpose.
00:51:03Certainly.
00:51:05But man is man.
00:51:07He moves forward and he moves backward.
00:51:09You won't change it easily.
00:51:12I am not pessimistic.
00:51:15Bessoir like that one.
00:51:17Me neither.
00:51:18I want to be like that one.
00:51:26There aren't any.
00:51:34MFP subtitles.
00:52:04Well, what are we waiting for? Françoise? There's nobody here! Françoise!
00:52:15Why are you shouting like that? First of all, what are you doing standing up?
00:52:19Well, it seems to me that it's about time.
00:52:21Hasn't that hour struck yet?
00:52:23Oh, there it is! But what need is there for bells? My own clock tells me he's here!
00:52:29What time is it? But...
00:52:30You see!
