00:01One has to know when to bow out.
00:04Never! I will not let you give up writing.
00:08My readers love your work, and they want to know all about you.
00:15What are you here for, Marcel?
00:17I don't just want you rambling on about us,
00:19because everywhere you've been, I've been too.
00:23Simone, at last! I got my Paris transfer!
00:26Where everything is possible!
00:29Bob Kings!
00:31If writing doesn't work out, then I can teach again.
00:33And be miserable with your blackboard for the rest of your life.
00:36There's no getting famous at this rate.
00:40So why don't you put your mind to writing a play
00:43that's set back in your hometown, then?
00:45I win the point. This Marius of yours is a masterpiece!
00:51This success doesn't seem to make you happy, Marcel.
00:54What's left for me to do now?
00:56And action!
00:57What's your talking picture got that I don't?
01:01Thanks to the camera, I can soar up above.
01:04I'll no longer be limited by the stage.
01:07I can film a face ten inches away and see a deer roll down a cheek.
01:11You want me to cry?
01:15I'll play your cuckold baker on second thought.
01:18Who are you?
01:24Who are you?
01:27Ladies and gentlemen...
01:29...Marcel!
01:30...Pagnol!
01:31...Mr Marcel Pagnol!
01:37I promise you, Mom, one day I shall make you proud.
01:40I can't wait.
