00:08This is Paris, and that is the 1.30 plane to New York.
00:13It will land in America, 4,000 miles away, at 5.30 this afternoon, in four hours' time by the
00:21clock.
00:22It's wonderful, isn't it? Of course, it takes more than four hours.
00:26But you see, the jet is so fast, it races the sun.
00:31This is what has happened since the big jets came.
00:35Time has been annihilated.
00:38Constantly, the great airliners take off.
00:43And land.
00:53And for each aircraft, you have, naturally, air hostesses.
00:59These delectable creatures, selected for their beauty and charm, are in a state of perpetual migration.
01:07For days, they fly the great air routes of the world.
01:10And then, they like to come down.
01:13And whenever possible, they like to come down in Paris, and all regret leaving.

09:22Uh, transfer Paris.
09:24Arriving this AM.
09:26Hotel space, impossible.
09:28You can put me up.
09:30Signed, Robert Reed.
09:31Pierre, I never got the message.
09:34You never delivered the telegram.
09:36Understand?
09:38I don't understand, but, uh...
09:40I understand.
09:42Okay.
09:44Lisa!
09:45Lisa!
09:47Exactly on time.
09:49I have to check out.
09:50Just five minutes, and then we'll be all cozy in our little Paris home.
09:55Wunderbar.
09:57Hurry up.
09:58Hurry.
10:20I still don't believe it.
10:42Oh, what's the matter, Bertha?
10:46Did we frighten you?
10:47This job keeps me too tired to get frightened.
10:50It's not easy, you know.
10:52Well, none of us get things easily.
10:57Uh, what do we have for lunch, Bertha?
10:59Well, I-I thought of souffle with some mushrooms.
11:02Souffle.
11:03Souffle.
11:04Souffle is for people mit our teeth.
11:06What we need is good, solid food.
11:10Knackwurst, sauerkraut, and heavy black bread.
11:13Have you any idea how long it took me to dream up that souffle?
11:16You don't get those things by rubbing two sticks together, you know.
11:19It often tastes like it.
11:20Now, girls...
11:21Hey, you have got the knackwurst, haven't you?
11:22Yes, but it's old.
11:24You haven't been here for three days.
11:26Three whole days.
11:28And nights.
11:29And nights.
11:30I'm gonna start the souffle.
11:33Oh, just a moment.
11:35I have to see that for myself.
11:39Oh, brother.
11:46There's nothing wrong with this.
11:47You're right.
11:49Of course I am.
11:50If you can stand the smell, we'll have this.
11:55What's that?
11:57Um, kidneys.
12:00Kidneys?
12:05Bernhardt?
12:05Yeah?
12:06Who was here for breakfast?
12:07Breakfast?
12:08Yes.
12:09Here?
12:10That it's kidneys.
12:11Yeah, but kidneys.
12:12You don't need kidneys.
12:13Me?
12:13Kidneys.
12:14I hate kidneys.
12:14Oh, kidneys!
12:15Uh, that was, um, uh, Robert Reed from Consolidated Press.
12:19He was here.
12:19He was here for breakfast?
12:20Yes.
12:21Uh-huh.
12:21Oh, I thought you and he didn't get along.
12:23Well, uh, we're, we're, professionally, you know.
12:25Uh, but, uh, you know how it is with rival newspaper men.
12:27I've been always bickering, always fighting.
12:28Oh, I thought he's in Berlin.
12:29Well, uh, well, he was in Berlin, but then they transferred him now to Paris.
12:33Yes, that's it.
12:34And, uh, why are you asking me all these questions?
12:38Don't you trust me?
12:39Oh, I'm sorry, Liebling.
12:41No, no, no.
12:42You must think I'm terribly suspicious.
12:45Well, yeah.
12:47Yeah.
12:48Oh, I'll tell you what I'm going to do.
12:50What, Liebling?
12:50I'm going to take a bath and make myself all fresh and powdery for you.
12:56Oh, my Liebling.
13:00Miss Glyde.
13:01Miss Glyde.
13:02Uh, what does that mean?
13:03See you later.
13:04See you later, yes.
13:10Well, let's see.
13:16It's positively unnatural.
13:19What?
13:20Well, God didn't make us all the same way, that's all.
13:23What are you muttering about?
13:25I have to do her laundry every time she gets here.
13:29Well, you leave me alone.
13:30How can she get so dirty in only three days?
13:33It's not easy for me around here.
13:35You keep saying that.
13:36You get paid well enough, don't you?
13:38Yeah, but not enough, and I've been meaning to talk to you about that.
13:41Why don't you sit down?
13:43Last week, I worked 89 hours.
13:46I had my shoes resold twice.
13:4822 francs.
13:49Shh, shh, shh.
13:50Gotta do the laundry.
13:52I gotta remember who eats what, who wears which lingerie, who's going, who's coming.
13:57You don't need a housekeeper around here.
13:59You need a UNIVAC machine.
14:01Look.
14:01I'm at Liebling.
14:02Yeah, yeah.
14:03I have a surprise for you.
14:05Yes?
14:05You can throw away my old schedule.
14:07The old schedule?
14:08Well, how will I count the minutes until we're back together again?
14:10On the new schedule.
14:11What?
14:12What new schedule?
14:13I'm going to be transferred to the new intercontinental jet.
14:16It's a super Boeing with a cruising speed of Mach 0.88.
14:20Mach 0.88.
14:22Terrific.
14:22Four Rolls Royce jets, each one with 21,000 pounds of thrust.
14:27I'll be home much more often.
14:29That'll bend his schedule.
14:34Well, when is, when is this going to happen?
14:37As soon as a new plane is delivered.
14:39Isn't it wonderful?
14:40Yes, it's wonderful.
14:44Bis gleich.
14:45Bis gleich.
14:55Mach 843, 21,000 pounds of thrust.
14:58That's four, six, seven.
15:01Hello?
15:01Vicky!
15:02But where are you?
15:03At the airport?
15:05They delivered the VC-10.
15:06They sent a car to the runway and took me off my plane so I can go on the new
15:09one.
15:10Me, isn't that marvelous?
15:11Well, marvelous.
15:12I'm coming right home.
15:14They'll call me when the flight's ready.
15:15But don't come home.
15:16No, no, don't come home.
15:17You stay there.
15:18I'll come out to the airport.
15:20Liebling!
15:26Who were you shouting at?
15:28Bertha.
15:29Did you call me, sir?
15:30No, I thought of you.
15:33Oh, I've got to go to the airport, do a story.
15:35Yes, the British Embassy, you know, and would you tell Fraulein Lisa for me that I'm out
15:40at the...
15:41That's Fraulein Lisa.
15:42Oh, of course it is.
15:42Who else would it be?
15:43Hi.
15:43I've got to go out to the airport, the British Ambassador.
15:46Oh, you just said that.
15:47Are you all right?
15:48You look pale.
15:49No, I'm...
15:49Uh, Berta, I'll get him a glass of schnapps.
15:51No, no, no.
15:52I'm fine, fine, fine.
15:53Uh, he's just excited, miss.
15:55He's beginning to realize what these new schedules are going to do for him.
15:59Well, that's it.
16:00That's obviously what excited me.
16:01Bertha, you're brilliant.
16:02Yeah, I know.
16:03If it's obvious, I don't see why it's brilliant.
16:06Well, it's brilliant because Bertha thought of it.
16:08I mean, there was this obvious fact staring me right in the face and I didn't even see
16:11it, but Bertha did.
16:11Why, it's brilliant by comparison.
16:15I'm leaving.
16:17You'll be back soon?
16:18As soon as I can, you know the newspaper business.
16:21Hurry.
16:22Au revoir.
16:25He's just like a big kid, isn't he?
16:28Yeah.
16:29Dead end kid.
16:33Axe!
17:03Have you seen the geese?
17:05Um, she said to tell you she'd gone up to the coffee bar.
17:33Uh, uh, where's Vicky?
17:36Yes, of course.
17:37Yes.
17:38She came up and asked me to tell you.
17:49She'd gone downstairs to take a taxi.
17:50Taxi, taxi.
17:58I'll make it hard.
17:59That gentleman you were speaking to, wasn't that Bernard Lawrence?
18:02Yes, you know him?
18:03Uh, yes, he's an old friend.
18:05Oh, a remarkable man.
18:06Enormous amount of energy.
18:07Uh, I see you know him pretty well yourself.
18:11Well, thank you.
18:34Vicky!
18:35Vicky!
18:39I won't wait!
18:48Bernard, what are you doing here?
18:50Your phone went out of order.
18:51Isn't it wonderful about the BC-10?
18:52Wonderful.
18:53Come on, we can be home in 20 minutes.
18:54No, no, no, I came here to be with you.
18:56Well, that was very sweet of you, Danny, but now we can really be together.
18:58Well, no, we can't.
18:59You see, uh, I, uh, have to cover a story.
19:01Yes, I'm covering a story about a new airplane.
19:04Famous foreign correspondent covering a story about a new airplane.
19:07Well, I, you see, I knew you were going to be here alone.
19:09And in order to be able to do that, I have to cover the story about a new airplane.
19:12So, you see, we've got to stay here.
19:14I'm very disappointed.
19:15Oh, don't be.
19:16Next time we'll be together twice as long.
19:17Come on.
19:181, 2, 3, 4.
19:311, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 1, halt!
19:39Die dritte Übung, hängen auf der Hüften legen.
19:41Der Oberkörper im Breise drehen, den linken Fuß ausstrecken.
19:45Hochheben, jetzt direkt die Fuß.
19:48Das wird Ihnen schöne Hüften geben.
19:50Nicht mühlich werden, Sie müssen arbeiten.
19:53Sie müssen verstehen, dass man am Ortenweg arbeiten muss.
19:56Ja.
19:58Just tell the driver to honk the horn.
20:011, 2, 3, 4, nicht mühlich werden.
20:04Bertha!
20:07Bertha!
20:08Ja?
20:09Canceled the knackwurst.
20:10They delivered the new Superboy, and I'm going to be on it.
20:14Wunderbar.
20:15I have to go back to the airport.
20:18We're gonna miss you.
20:28Now, to be absolutely certain, you leave Accra tomorrow, right?
20:33Right.
20:33And you're back in Paris at 1845 Thursday evening, right?
20:37No, Wednesday midnight.
20:39No, Wednesday midnight.
20:40This is the VC-10.
20:40It cuts hours.
20:41Oh.
20:42Orange juice, please.
20:43Très bien, madame.
20:44Vodka martinis.
20:44C'est bon, monsieur.
20:47I wish you wouldn't do that.
20:48Makes me feel as though you're always squeezing me in.
20:50Well, my love, I have to arrange my schedule.
20:52You wouldn't want me to be busy on an assignment when you get back, now would you?
20:55Huh?
20:56Speaking of assignments, the new planes in the hangar.
20:59I don't see how you can cover this story from a bar.
21:01That statement, young lady, is a knife in the back of every newspaper man in the world.
21:05Oh, no.
21:06Oh, yeah.
21:07It's me, Robert.
21:07Hi, Bernard.
21:08Hi.
21:08We were talking about you this morning.
21:10Oh, we were?
21:11Well, no, no.
21:12Bertha and I were, yeah.
21:13We were saying how wonderful you were doing in Berlin.
21:15Are you going back?
21:16Oh, no.
21:16I've been reassigned to Paris.
21:17Didn't you get my wire?
21:18No.
21:18No.
21:19Oh.
21:21Anything interesting happening in Paris?
21:23Uh, nothing.
21:23Just routine stuff.
21:25Been hibernating.
21:26Uh-huh.
21:27Like a bear.
21:27And I take it this is Mama Bear?
21:30Uh, Miss Vicki Hawkins, British United, Robert Reed, Consolidated Press.
21:36Nice to meet you.
21:36Won't you sit down?
21:37Uh, won't I be intruding?
21:38No.
21:38Oh, thank you.
21:39I will.
21:43Comfortable?
21:45Oh, uh, s'il vous plaît, uh, donnez-moi un vodka martini très sec.
21:51Très sec, monsieur.
21:52Oui.
21:54Uh, tell me, have you, uh, known Bernard Long?
21:58He doesn't know.
22:00He doesn't know what?
22:01That I'm your fiancé.
22:02You are?
22:03Oh, yes, of course.
22:04You are my fiancé.
22:04This is my fiancé.
22:06Delighted.
22:07I'm so lucky to have a man like Bernard all to myself.
22:09Don't you think?
22:10Oh, absolutely.
22:12What's that?
22:15Oh, that's our new VC-10 I was telling you about.
22:17We're starting it today because of Lufthansa's Super Boeing.
22:20Lufthansa?
22:21Today?
22:22I don't see how you can write a story about airplanes when you don't know anything about what you're writing.
22:27Oh, that never stopped a good newspaper, man.
22:31Très sec, monsieur.
22:32Merci beaucoup.
22:33You know you're the first friend of Bernard's I've ever met.
22:35He's so secretive.
22:37Yes, I know.
22:38He's even concealed you from me.
22:39Do you know that I've never ever known where he's lived in Paris?
22:41We have a marvellous apartment.
22:43It's a slum.
22:43Is it big?
22:44Enormous.
22:45You've got to put me up for a couple of days, Bernard.
22:47I mean, every decent hotel in Paris is loaded.
22:49You know, what with the tourists and everything?
22:50Oh, stay at the YMCA.
22:52Nonsense.
22:52You can come to our place.
22:53You can keep Bernard Cuffley while I'm away.
22:55No.
22:55He gets very lonely.
22:56I accept.
22:57Will the crew of British United Flight number 237 please check with operations?
23:05Oh, oh.
23:05Please don't get home.
23:06You see, now where would we have been if we'd gone back to the apartment?
23:09Where indeed?
23:10You're right as always.
23:11He's a genius, you know.
23:12I heard.
23:13Bye-bye.
23:14No, you stay here with your friend.
23:16I'll come back and say goodbye if we're going straight out.
23:18For the crew of British United Flight number 237 please check with operations.
23:25Do you know how lucky you are?
23:26I guarantee you I do.
23:28If I could only find a girl like that.
23:30You're going to the YMCA.
23:32I'll find one there.
23:34You're not going to look in my apartment.
23:35But this is your fiancé.
23:37This is different.
23:37Robert, the last time I saw you was in Casablanca.
23:41I lost a story, two flamenco dances, and a case of whiskey.
23:45I suppose that was different too.
23:46Did you see Bernhardt?
23:48Yeah.
23:53What are you doing?
23:55You don't have to laugh it up.
23:56He'll bring you another one.
23:58There he is.
23:59Oh, I'm sleeping.
24:01I dropped my watch.
24:02I'm so happy I found you.
24:04Oh, and you must be the friend from breakfast.
24:06Yes.
24:07Yes.
24:09Breakfast?
24:10Oh, you are not Mr. Reid from Berlin who had the English breakfast with Bernhardt this morning?
24:15Oh!
24:16Oh, the English breakfast.
24:17Yes, of course.
24:18And those English kippers are just marvelous.
24:21Kidneys.
24:21I mean kidneys.
24:23I always confuse kippers and kidneys.
24:25But I'm not Mr. Reid.
24:26You can call me Robert.
24:27I'm Lisa.
24:28Uh, Lisa?
24:29Yeah, but you seem not to know me.
24:31Uh, should I?
24:33Well, it's Bernhardt's friend.
24:35Of course he knows you.
24:36He knows all about you.
24:38He knows I'm your fiancé?
24:40Oh, yes, fiancé.
24:42Certainly.
24:43He does nothing but talk about you.
24:44He's completely obsessed with you.
24:47What are you doing here?
24:49Operations phone.
24:50I've just been promoted to the new superjet.
24:52Congratulations.
24:53We're going out immediately.
24:55Uh, well, that's why I'm here.
24:56You know, I waited for you here.
24:57I knew you were coming back to the airport.
24:59He anticipates everything.
25:01He really is a genius.
25:05Well, I'm off.
25:06Don't get up.
25:10Well, darling, I have to go back to Frankfurt and London, Montreal and back to Paris.
25:15Uh-huh.
25:15And when do you plan to be back in Paris?
25:17Day after tomorrow.
25:18Day after tomorrow.
25:19At what highway?
25:20Uh, 2100.
25:212100, huh?
25:21He hates confusion so much.
25:24Don't you, Liebling?
25:25Yes, I do.
25:25He's just a slave to my schedule.
25:28Mm.
25:30Oh, excuse us.
25:31Excuse me.
25:32Auf Wiedersehen, mein Liebling.
25:34Auf Wiedersehen, mein Liebling.
25:35Auf Wiedersehen, mein Liebling.
25:35Have a nice trip, Liebling.
25:37Auf Wiedersehen.
25:50Auf Wiedersehen.
25:52I love you girls flying around the world.
25:53Karachi, cartoon, Caracas.
25:55I know, I know.
25:55Yeah.
25:56And I know that tone of voice from the past, so leave it alone.
26:00I wouldn't touch it for the world.
26:01Not even the slightest push.
26:03Take off in 15 minutes.
26:04Don't get up.
26:05I see you at midnight, darling.
26:08Yes.
26:09Midnight.
26:10Midnight?
26:11When I'm flying, I go to the galley and look out of the porthole at the moon.
26:15At exactly midnight.
26:16And Bernard looks up out of his bed at the same time.
26:19So you see, we're together even when we're both alone.
26:22Because we're both looking at the very same moon.
26:26That's cute.
26:28Vicky's very imaginative.
26:30It's delightful.
26:31Excuse us.
26:32Would you excuse me, Vicky?
26:33Should I leave?
26:34Oh, no.
26:46On course, you will play.
26:49Goodbye.
26:50Goodbye.
26:51Cheerio.
27:03I can't wait to see your apartment.
27:06You never will.
27:08Why not?
27:08We can double date you and Vicky and me and Lufthansa.
27:11You're going to a hotel.
27:13Then I'll miss Lufthansa, and so will you when I tell her about Vicky.
27:16You wouldn't.
27:18I would if you forced me to go to a hotel.
27:22Yeah, all right.
27:2656th Avenue de la Rennes.
27:28Seed berth of my housekeeper.
27:31I've got to go back to the office.
27:32I don't know when he finds time to work at all.
27:35Pardon, monsieur.
27:36Oh!
27:37Nothing.
27:38It was just...
27:40That's outrageous.
27:41I wouldn't pay it if I were you.
27:42You're right.
27:43I won't.
27:46You have a big mouth.
27:53Shh!
28:00Shh!
28:04Bertha!
28:05Monsieur!
28:06Je suis son ami de Monsieur Laurence.
28:10What?
28:11Je suis son ami de Monsieur Laurence.
28:15I'm an American.
28:17Oh, I'm Mr. Laurence's houseguest for a couple of days.
28:21He a guest, too?
28:23Oh, no, he's a cab driver.
28:25Oh. Did you bring your family with you?
28:28Oh, no, I'm a bachelor.
28:30So is Mr. Laurence.
28:31Yes, I know. I'm Robert Reed.
28:34Oh, the breakfast one.
28:37Everyone seems to be preoccupied with my breakfast.
28:40Mr. Laurence didn't say anything about you coming to stay.
28:44Oh, well, you know how he is forgetful.
28:46Mr. Laurence can't afford to forget anything.
28:49Uh-huh.
28:50What room did he say you could stay in?
28:52Did he say what room? He wouldn't tell you.
28:55I mean, I think he left it up to you.
28:57Oh. Well, this is the guest room and this is the bathroom.
29:02Yeah.
29:03And this is, uh, uh, well, and this is his bedroom and this is the spare room.
29:09It's kind of like a dormitory here.
29:11You don't know the half of it.
29:13Oh. Uh, may I sit down?
29:15Oh, certainly.
29:16Thank you very much.
29:17It's all right.
29:18You're, uh, you're a guest around here, you say.
29:23Uh, I kind of get the idea that you're not happy about it.
29:27Well, it's another mouth to feed and it's another soul to keep track of.
29:31But I'm not very strong, you know.
29:33I took this job because my doctor said I should avoid excitement.
29:38Um, are you used to a varied diet?
29:42I have the broadest tastes.
29:44Oh, another one.
29:46Uh, I, uh, I kind of think I know what you must go through.
29:49Uh, no, you don't.
29:51But it's, uh, nice to find a young man with some consideration.
29:56So, you go in the guest room and rest up and I'll go out in the kitchen and get you
29:59a nice cold drink.
30:01Uh, uh, Mr. Reed.
30:03Yes.
30:03Uh, you forgot something.
30:06No.
30:06I'm sorry. Uh, merci.
30:09Uh, uh, ça va.
30:22Oh, God.

30:43ten minutes.

30:45Why not sip a leisurely aperitif?
30:48Uh, are you going to cut out the usual dialogue or do I get someone else, huh?
30:52If you choose, you do not engage me primarily for my linguistic services.

41:51right yes and uh they all have the idea of getting married right of course they do i mean how
41:59else
41:59do you think polygamy works but isn't that a little risky plus the fact it's against the law
42:04you know three wives i mean just a minute wait a minute who said anything about wives
42:08they're fiancés and that's the way they're going to stay that way i have all the advantages of
42:14married life without any of its inconveniences do you understand and besides fiancés are a lot
42:20friendlier than wives you're kidding now three is the perfect number less would be monotonous more
42:27would be terribly tiring three is just ideal but it's immoral immoral all three think they're the only
42:35one now if they don't think it's immoral why should i i tell you it's the only way to live
42:39here but isn't
42:40just a little complicated no all you need is a timetable i'll bet you do no not what you think
42:44an airline's timetable oh to get away in a hurry come here i'll show you here's a timetable for all
42:51the major airlines in the whole world all in one volume one volume you understand now don't you yes
42:58you really don't do you no let me see let me put it this way each one of my fiancés
43:04has been
43:04recruited from the different air personnel each is an airline hostess and very beautiful thank you
43:09they've been tried and tested uh you know the entrance exam to these major airlines is very
43:14difficult they have to be healthy good at cooking witty friendly friendly i understand it from your
43:21point of view but what do the girls get out of it they get out they get security out of
43:26it i mean flying
43:27around like that it's good for them to know that there's someone down below that they can come
43:30home to there's not enough people down below to go around huh well they happen to be in love with
43:34me that's nice well i take my hat off to you but i must admit i don't think it's going

43:50arriving in
43:51montreal this evening jacqueline who leaves tomorrow morning will be arriving in tokyo and vicky

44:02towards the sun one towards the moon and they all eventually in turn come back to me it's geometrical
44:08it's poetic sort of like one up one down one pending huh mm-hmm yeah you might say that
44:16well old friend now that you know everything you understand why it's important that you find your
44:21own place because your presence here makes it highly complicated you know now that i realize how
44:26remarkably uncomplicated you've made everything i just wouldn't trust myself staying anywhere else
44:33oh i never thought you'd stooped up blackmail oh don't call it no say admiration envy maybe and
44:41something else a deep-seated curiosity because now that i've heard i can't wait to see your geometrical
44:48poetry come unglued at the scene look nothing's gonna happen unless you make it happen you breathe
44:54one word you open your mind what wait a minute i will protect this setup as though of my very
44:59own yeah
