00:01:48Thank you all
00:02:00After five years of ruinous war
00:02:02which had caused millions of deaths
00:02:04I went back to being a bourgeois
00:02:07According to the doctors, I was clinically cured.
00:02:10At the hospital, before being discharged
00:02:13my crutches were replaced with a cane
00:02:18At home I would have continued my convalescence
00:02:20or rather the volia
00:02:38Thank you all
00:03:07Welcome, Mr. Fox
00:03:38There is no talking, but I can't hear what he is saying
00:03:41My eyes, my feelings
00:03:43I am only for the nature that surrounds me
00:03:47The valleys, the meadows, the woods
00:03:49they are part of the mythical garden of my childhood
00:03:52I know them all
00:03:53corner by corner, bush by bush
00:03:57And it is in this peace
00:03:58that I decided to bury a man
00:04:01and if possible
00:04:02invent another one
00:04:04another me
00:04:17Another me
00:04:55When did you receive my letter?
00:04:57Yesterday morning
00:04:58We just had time to prepare his room
00:05:00We almost didn't want to believe it.
00:05:03And instead I'm here
00:05:04I decided to come and live in the countryside
00:05:07We haven't changed anything since he left.
00:05:43Thank you very much
00:06:42Thank you all
00:06:53Who is?
00:07:21He doesn't look like himself anymore since he arrived
00:07:23He didn't smile even once
00:07:25Yet it has everything
00:07:26He lacks nothing
00:07:29To war
00:07:54To war
00:08:08To war
00:08:20To war
00:08:38Thank you all.

00:14:26Thank you all.
00:14:45And since we are the only relatives, we had to take care of her.
00:14:57Here's the strudel, here's the strudel.
00:15:19Thank you all.
00:16:00Thank you all.
00:16:31Thank you all.
00:17:07Good morning.
00:17:49Thank you all.
00:18:03You play very well.
00:18:19I find you...
00:18:46I find you...
00:18:49It is not true?
00:19:36Thank you all.
00:20:09Where you go...
00:20:10something told me...
00:20:13that was supposed to happen.
00:20:44Excuse me, but...
00:21:16And...
00:22:10Thank you all.
00:22:21Thank you all.
00:22:51Thank you all.

00:23:50Thank you all.
00:24:31Thank you all.
00:24:52Thank you all.
00:25:21Thank you all.
00:25:34Thank you all.
00:26:04Capable of provoking instincts without feeling them.
00:26:08And I, who had been enchanted by it, understood that I could return to the pleasure of imagination.
00:26:14So I decided to write down my experiences with her day by day.
00:26:33Here, here, here, here, here it is.
00:26:34Beautiful, here, here, here, here, here, here.
00:27:03Here, here, here, here.
00:27:37here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here.
00:28:05Here, and now, my little Eva,
00:28:10finally my life can have a meaning, like this, next to you.
00:28:52Do you like it?
00:28:54It's beautiful, before it was just a blank sheet of paper.
00:29:01Thank you.
00:29:09Thank you.
00:29:18Thank you.
00:30:03Thank you.
00:30:24Thank you all.
00:30:55I have never had such a beautiful dress.
00:30:58Thank you very much.
00:31:00I'm glad you liked it.
00:31:02How do you know I'm turning twelve today?
00:31:05Well, I realized it yesterday when I looked into your eyes.
00:31:08Like in the eyes?
00:31:10I saw in your eyes that something in you was changing.
00:31:16Are you kidding me?
00:31:19I have another surprise for you.
00:31:22For which one?
00:31:24Wait and see.
00:31:27Come on, come on, go!
00:31:39Hey!
00:31:45Hey!
00:31:49Hey!
00:31:57Hey!
00:32:01Hey!
00:32:28The gentlemen wish, I would like an ice cream
00:32:31An ice cream for the lady and a cognac for me
00:32:40Eva, you know Eva, a young lady should never order directly
00:32:45She should ask her knight what she wants
00:33:29He should ask his knight what they want
00:33:34Eve, Eve
00:33:36What's up?
00:33:37Are you tired of my company?
00:33:38Oh no, it's just that he was looking at me
00:33:40Many will look at you, it will happen to you often, don't be surprised
00:33:44But why?
00:33:46But because you are very cute and therefore others envy me
00:33:51Today you see, you are my little lady
00:33:54And I have no intention of sharing you with anyone.
00:34:00Eat ice cream now
00:34:02Eat ice cream
00:34:35Here we are, we have arrived
00:34:37Finally
00:34:44How beautiful it is
00:34:47You know, I didn't think it was that big.
00:34:50It's a pleasure to see you so happy
00:34:52It's wonderful
00:34:53I would really like to go on a boat trip
00:34:56It will be a joy for me to accompany you
00:34:58Please
00:35:26Thank you all
00:35:30Thank you all
00:36:07Thank you all

00:36:36Me too
00:37:06Did you have fun?
00:37:07Oh yes, it was a beautiful day
00:37:09I'm really glad you enjoyed Luxembourg Lake.
00:37:12You know what, I'd love to come back here again.
00:37:16Listen Eva, there's a place that I'd really like to introduce you to one day.
00:37:20And what is it?
00:37:21And what is it?
00:37:22Guess?
00:37:22I do not know
00:37:23Paris Eva, Paris
00:37:25It's a wonderful, fantastic city
00:37:27You can't imagine how beautiful she is

00:38:13Thank you
00:38:41Thank you
00:39:05Mr. Paul
00:39:07Mr. Paul, he has arrived
00:39:32Is the mare ready?
00:39:34She is in full heat, this is the best time for mating
00:39:38Then we can go
00:39:40At the stable, Joseph
00:39:49Today it's your turn
00:39:52It's a wonderful specimen
00:39:54Oh sure, it's the best in the area
00:39:55I like it, I really like it
00:39:57So...
00:39:59Are you ready?
00:40:03Why are you closing?
00:40:05These are not shows for children
00:40:09I told you no
00:40:21But we weren't supposed to keep each other company
00:40:26Certain
00:40:27Are we not friends anymore?
00:40:31You are no longer...
00:40:32You see, Eva
00:40:34There are certain things
00:40:36That little girls can't see
00:40:37Nor do
00:40:38Do you understand?
00:40:40I'm not a child anymore
00:40:42You are a man
00:40:43And I am a woman
00:40:49Excuse me
00:40:50But
00:40:50Mademoiselle
00:40:50Can I do it for you?
00:40:52He asked me
00:40:53He asked me
00:40:53He asked me
00:40:54He asked me
00:41:10He asked me
00:41:39Thank you.
00:41:46Thank you.
00:42:11And failing to specify in the girl the nature of her ambiguity.
00:42:25I found myself living a Manichean experience between sensual love and pure love.
00:42:58Thank you.
00:43:19When are you leaving for love?
00:43:21I don't know, in about a week or two.
00:43:24And will you be gone a long time?
00:43:26No, I don't think so, just for a few days.
00:43:30You won't forget me, will you?
00:43:32Forget you?
00:43:35No, really. It's impossible now.
00:43:39Come on, I want to show you a secret.
00:43:41Agree.
00:44:08But where are you taking me?
00:44:11You come.
00:44:30It is raining.
00:44:32Come, let's take shelter.
00:44:41Come, let's take shelter.
00:44:44Come, let's take shelter.
00:44:48Come, let's take shelter.
00:44:51Come, let's take shelter.
00:44:52Come, let's take shelter.
00:44:53Come, let's take shelter.
00:44:53Come, let's take shelter.
00:44:53Come, let's take shelter.
00:44:53Come, let's take shelter.
00:44:54Come, let's take shelter.
00:44:54Come, let's take shelter.
00:44:56Come, let's take shelter.
00:44:58Come, let's take shelter.
00:44:59Come, let's take shelter.
00:45:00Come, let's take shelter.
00:45:02Come, let's take shelter.
00:45:07Why did you get so serious?
00:45:10I thought you would like to come here with me, just
00:45:16Yes, certainly
00:45:17If so, please smile at me, come on, try to smile
00:45:28But... but you're all wet
00:45:31My aunt will certainly never forgive me for this.
00:45:33Don't worry, we'll dry everything out.
00:45:37Yes
00:45:37Don't worry, we'll dry everything out.
00:46:07Yes, I used to come here whenever I was sad or unhappy.
00:46:11And now? You're not anymore?
00:46:15No, since you arrived here in Maria Lanzendorf I am no longer
00:46:19You know me too, I'm happy now
00:46:23You know, I wanted to write a story
00:46:25On this happiness of mine
00:46:28Here, you see, it's the story of a man
00:46:30And of a woman
00:46:32A little woman
00:46:34Who saves a desperate man
00:46:36Desperate
00:46:39A desperately lonely man
00:46:40Who returns from the war
00:46:42Is this your story?
00:46:44No
00:46:44It's our story
00:46:46And I saved you?
00:46:47Yes, certainly
00:46:49You saved me
00:46:50And when I came back from the war
00:46:53I had decided to end it all altogether.
00:46:56I thought until I understood
00:47:00That you were very, very important to me
00:47:04My little era
00:47:33Eva, are you coming with me to town?
00:47:35Yes
00:48:07Sorry you know, I'll only have you for five minutes
00:48:10Okay, I'll wait for you
00:48:15Here, you see
00:48:16Maybe you'll find something
00:48:16But, no, it should be maybe further down
00:48:19Look, look
00:48:19Look, look
00:48:20Look, look
00:48:20Because they told me it was there anyway
00:48:24Here she is
00:48:28Yes, maybe
00:48:30Here, I found it
00:48:31Come, thank you.
00:48:34Look, look
00:48:34No, maybe yes, here
00:48:36You read it, I have a look
00:48:54An express registered letter to Vienna
00:48:58How long do you think it will take to arrive?
00:49:01Two or three days
00:49:03And how much is it?
00:49:06One hundred shillings
00:49:09Thank you
00:49:11Good morning
00:49:12Good morning
00:49:38Good morning
00:49:48Attention
00:49:50Attention
00:49:51Attention
00:49:51Attention
00:49:51Now I'm going to show you an exceptional number
00:50:25For the first time
00:50:26Don't miss this show
00:50:28None of you want to check
00:50:30Please
00:50:31Don't be afraid
00:50:33Look, gentlemen.
00:50:34This is steel
00:50:36Extremely strong steel
00:50:38Would you like to check, sir?
00:50:40This is steel
00:50:42Would you like to check, sir?
00:50:45If the chains are well welded
00:50:49And quite narrow
00:50:51With the strength of muscles alone
00:50:53Behold, these chains of mine will jump
00:51:03Gentlemen
00:51:04Do you have Hercules here before you?
00:51:33You have it here in front of you
00:51:46You have it here in front of you
00:51:56You have it here in front of you
00:52:24You have it here in front of you
00:52:37Eve
00:52:38These are people you should avoid.
00:52:50They are gypsies
00:52:52Vagabonds
00:53:22Since that evening
00:53:24In which I saw Eve
00:53:25Caress her naked body
00:53:27In the tub
00:53:30I began to live an experience
00:53:32Dreamlike
00:53:32Obsessive
00:53:34In which my brain
00:53:36He was waiting for it to reappear
00:53:39And she
00:53:41Punctually
00:53:42He was showing up again
00:53:44With his appearance
00:53:45Of a precocious girl
00:53:48He invited me
00:53:49He invited me with the seductive ambiguity
00:53:51Of her woman's gaze
00:53:58Obsessed
00:53:59Notif estimated
00:54:00An experience
00:54:01It's an experience
00:54:01It's an experience
00:54:07It's an experience
00:54:07It's an experience
00:54:09It's an experience
00:54:11It's an experience
00:54:13It's an experience
00:54:35The Marquise von Norman, our author
00:54:38Professor Schumann, his charming daughter
00:54:44Professor Schumann is an eminent critic, one of the most authoritative pens of today.
00:54:49And here's a newfound talent
00:54:53Oh Paul, I was telling the lady that the relationship between love and suffering is a theme that I find irresistible in
00:55:00all love stories
00:55:01Right, I share your observation.
00:55:04Good evening
00:55:06He's a very charming man, isn't he?
00:55:08Is there something about him?
00:55:09Max always expresses outlandish opinions
00:55:14I read your book, I find it very expressive
00:55:16There is a deep splint in the story
00:55:19At certain moments I almost felt a sense of vertigo
00:55:22Thank you, madam.
00:55:23Good evening
00:55:24See you later
00:55:25See you later
00:55:27It's an unusual book
00:55:28Very interesting indeed
00:55:30But what ideals?
00:55:31They are charlatans, real charlatans.
00:55:34I've been to Paris
00:55:36The austerity of the war years has completely dissolved
00:55:39Ladies are becoming more and more elegant
00:55:42Ah, yes, that's true.
00:55:43They have hair, they wear it like a cloche
00:55:45Fabrics have colors
00:55:53Excuse me
00:55:54Where was I?
00:55:56Oh, I wanted to tell you something else.
00:55:58This evening a journalist expressed to me the desire to meet with you
00:56:01I couldn't help it
00:56:03His gossip columns are widely followed.
00:56:06And this seems like a great promotion to me.
00:56:09You will find her a very interesting woman
00:56:12Very interesting
00:56:15Believe me, she is a creature full of charm.
00:56:17And it is much sought after in the salons of Vienna.
00:56:20You will have the opportunity to see
00:56:22Sir, there will be that person who will have to be talked about.
00:56:25All right
00:56:28Lupus in fabula
00:56:38Surprised to see me?
00:56:49Shouldn't he have stayed longer in Vienna?
00:56:52Yes, of course, that's true, but...
00:56:54But it is also true that in this city everyone says what form dictates.
00:56:58I prefer country life to the salons of Vienna.
00:57:02I've been waiting for this day with impatience
00:57:04And now I'm living a very different season of my life
00:57:08And I lost all worldly interest
00:57:12Yes, I understand, but...
00:57:15Please, don't lose your inspiration.
00:57:18I can't lose her
00:57:32So she learned to love him like a happy little girl
00:57:36And he who could offer her nothing else
00:57:38He found his life again
00:57:40Nature defeated
00:57:41Who is not the boss
00:57:48Nature defeated
00:57:50Nature defeated
00:58:01Nature defeated

00:58:43Nature defeated
00:58:58Molds.
00:59:18It's a miracle he's still alive.
00:59:24I don't know if it's good for him.
00:59:27He will never be a man again.
