On September 3rd 1973
at 6:28pm and 32 seconds,

2
00:00:55,600 --> 00:01:00,600
a bluebottle fly capable
of 14,670 wing beats a minute

00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,200
landed on Rue St Vincent, Montmartre.

4
00:01:07,700 --> 00:01:11,800
At the same moment,
on a restaurant terrace nearby,

5
00:01:12,100 --> 00:01:16,700
the wind magically made two glasses
dance unseen on a tablecloth.

6
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:23,600
Meanwhile, in a 5th-floor flat,
28 Avenue Trudaine, Paris 9,

7
00:01:23,900 --> 00:01:28,500
returning from his best friend's funeral,
Eugène Colère erased his name

00:01:28,700 --> 00:01:30,700
from his address book.

00:01:35,300 --> 00:01:39,100
At the same moment,
a sperm with one X chromosome,

10
00:01:39,300 --> 00:01:41,600
belonging to Raphaël Poulain,

11
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,600
made a dash for an egg in his wife Amandine.

12
00:01:45,900 --> 00:01:47,900
Nine months later,

13
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,400
Amélie Poulain was born.

[The Fabulous Life Of Amélie Poulain]

00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,900
Her father, an ex-army doctor,

16
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,400
works at a spa in Enghien-Les-Bains.

17
00:03:40,500 --> 00:03:42,400
[TIGHT LIPS = HARD HEART]

18
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,400
Raphaël Poulain dislikes:

19
00:03:45,500 --> 00:03:49,400
Peeing next to someone else. He also dislikes:

20
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,200
Catching scornful glances at his sandals.

21
00:03:55,900 --> 00:03:58,800
Clingy wet swimming trunks.

22
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,600
Raphaël Poulain likes:

23
00:04:03,700 --> 00:04:05,900
Peeling off large strips of wallpaper.

24
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,400
Lining up all his shoes and polishing them.

25
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,700
Emptying his tool box,

26
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,600
cleaning it out,

27
00:04:17,700 --> 00:04:20,600
and putting everything back.

28
00:04:20,900 --> 00:04:24,800
Amélie's mother, Amandine,
a schoolmistress from Gueugnon,

29
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,000
has always had shaky nerves.

30
00:04:27,100 --> 00:04:29,100
[FACIAL TWITCH = WEAK NERVES]

31
00:04:29,300 --> 00:04:33,400
Amandine Poulain dislikes:
Getting puckered fingers in the bath.

32
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,500
When someone she doesn't like

33
00:04:36,700 --> 00:04:38,300
brushes against her hand.

34
00:04:39,900 --> 00:04:43,100
Pillow marks on her cheek in the morning.

35
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:47,700
Amandine Poulain likes:
Figure skaters' costumes on TV.

36
00:04:47,900 --> 00:04:51,000
Polishing the parquet with slippers.

37
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:52,700
Emptying her handbag,

38
00:04:52,900 --> 00:04:54,600
cleaning it out,

39
00:04:54,700 --> 00:04:57,000
and putting everything back.

40
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,400
Amélie is six.

41
00:05:03,500 --> 00:05:06,800
Like all little girls,
she'd like to be hugged by her daddy.

42
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,900
But he never touches her,
except for a monthly checkup.

43
00:05:12,100 --> 00:05:14,700
The thrill of this rare contact

44
00:05:14,900 --> 00:05:17,100
makes her heart beat like a drum.

45
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:18,700
As a result,

46
00:05:18,700 --> 00:05:20,700
he thinks she has a heart defect.

47
00:05:22,100 --> 00:05:24,300
Declared unfit for school,

48
00:05:24,500 --> 00:05:27,500
Amélie is taught by her mother.

49
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:28,800
Four...

50
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:30,100
hens...

51
00:05:30,100 --> 00:05:31,100
brood...

52
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:32,600
here...

53
00:05:32,700 --> 00:05:34,900
henceforth.

54
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,100
Four hens brood...

55
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:38,700
Very good.

56
00:05:38,900 --> 00:05:41,300
...hens fourth!
- No!

57
00:05:41,500 --> 00:05:44,100
Deprived of playmates,

58
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,700
tossed about
between a neurotic and an iceberg,

59
00:05:46,900 --> 00:05:49,900
Amélie retreats into her imagination.

60
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:55,200
In this world, LPs are made like pancakes.

61
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,100
The neighbour's comatose wife

62
00:05:58,300 --> 00:06:01,700
has chosen to get all her life's sleep in one go.

63
00:06:01,900 --> 00:06:05,100
After this, I can stay awake day and night.

64
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,300
Amélie has one friend, Blubber.

65
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:16,000
Alas, the home environment
has made Blubber suicidal.

66
00:06:34,100 --> 00:06:38,100
Blubber's suicide attempts
destroy Mother's nerves.

67
00:06:38,300 --> 00:06:39,900
A decision is made.

68
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:41,300
Enough!

69
00:07:15,300 --> 00:07:19,800
To comfort Amélie, her mother
gives her a second-hand Instamatic camera.

70
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,200
Little girl! Look what you did!

71
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:39,300
A neighbour fools her into thinking
her camera causes accidents.

72
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:44,000
Because she'd been taking pictures
all afternoon, Amélie is petrified.

73
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,200
She stares at the TV, racked by the guilt

74
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,400
of causing a huge fire,

75
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:52,400
two derailments

76
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,200
and a jumbo jet crash.

77
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,200
A few days later,

78
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,100
realising she'd been had,

79
00:07:58,300 --> 00:08:00,200
Amélie gets her revenge.

80
00:08:11,700 --> 00:08:13,900
What...?

81
00:08:41,900 --> 00:08:43,900
One day tragedy strikes.

82
00:08:44,100 --> 00:08:49,200
Amandine takes Amélie to Notre Dame
to light a candle and pray for a baby brother.

83
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,700
Three minutes later, heaven sends,

84
00:08:51,900 --> 00:08:56,800
alas, not a baby boy, but Marguerite,
a tourist from Quebec,

85
00:08:57,100 --> 00:08:59,000
bent on ending her life.

86
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:03,600
Amandine Poulain is killed instantly.

87
00:09:07,100 --> 00:09:11,800
After her mother's death,
Amélie lives alone with her father.

88
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,900
His unsociable tendencies increase.

89
00:09:16,100 --> 00:09:19,400
He's obsessed with building a miniature shrine

90
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,700
to house his wife's ashes.

91
00:09:27,900 --> 00:09:30,400
Days, months and years go by.

92
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,400
In such a dead world,

93
00:09:37,500 --> 00:09:41,000
Amélie prefers to dream
until she's old enough to leave home.

94
00:09:51,500 --> 00:09:54,600
Five years later,
she's a waitress in Montmartre

95
00:09:54,900 --> 00:09:57,000
at The Two Windmills.

96
00:09:58,300 --> 00:09:59,900
It is August 29th.

97
00:10:00,100 --> 00:10:03,600
In 48 hours, her life will change for ever.

98
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,300
But she doesn't know it yet.

99
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:12,900
She lives quietly among her colleagues
and the café's regulars.

100
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,500
That's Suzanne, the owner.

101
00:10:15,700 --> 00:10:18,400
She limps a little but she's never spilt a drink.

102
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,500
When she was younger, she was a circus rider.

103
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,300
She likes athletes who cry with disappointment.

104
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:29,200
She dislikes seeing men humiliated
in front of their kids in her café.

105
00:10:29,500 --> 00:10:33,200
Georgette is the tobacconist.
She's a hypochondriac.

106
00:10:33,500 --> 00:10:38,000
Migraines one day, sciatica the next.
She hates the words

107
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,300
"fruit of thy womb".

108
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:44,400
Gina works with Amélie.
Her grandmother was a healer.

109
00:10:44,700 --> 00:10:47,500
She likes cracking bones.

110
00:10:47,700 --> 00:10:50,900
She's bringing a kir to Hipolito, a failed writer.

111
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:54,600
He likes seeing bullfighters gored on TV.

112
00:10:56,700 --> 00:11:01,100
Scowling at them is Joseph,
Gina's rejected lover.

113
00:11:01,300 --> 00:11:03,800
He's always jealously spying on her.

114
00:11:03,900 --> 00:11:05,600
All he likes

115
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,600
is popping bubble wrap.

116
00:11:08,700 --> 00:11:11,100
And here's Philomène, an air hostess.

117
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:15,100
Amélie looks after her cat Rodrigue
when she's away. Philomène likes

118
00:11:15,300 --> 00:11:18,100
the sound of the cat's bowl on the tiles.

119
00:11:18,300 --> 00:11:22,000
Rodrigue likes overhearing children's stories.

120
00:11:23,500 --> 00:11:25,900
No, thanks, ma'am. I never work on Sundays.

121
00:11:27,100 --> 00:11:31,600
At weekends, Amélie often takes a train
from the Gare du Nord to see her father.

122
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,600
- Why don't you use your retirement to...?
- To do what?

123
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:37,800
Travel. You've never been away.

124
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:43,400
When we were young,
your mother and I longed to travel.

125
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,000
But we couldn't.

126
00:11:47,100 --> 00:11:50,000
- Because of your heart.
- Yes. I know.

127
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,400
So now...

128
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,300
Now...

129
00:11:54,500 --> 00:11:57,200
Some Friday evenings,
Amélie goes to the cinema.

130
00:11:57,300 --> 00:12:00,800
I like turning round
and looking at people's faces in the dark.

131
00:12:07,500 --> 00:12:11,200
I like noticing details
that no-one else ever sees.

132
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:17,900
But I hate it in old American movies
when drivers don't watch the road.

133
00:12:23,500 --> 00:12:25,800
Amélie doesn't have a boyfriend.

134
00:12:25,900 --> 00:12:30,100
She tried once or twice,
but the results were a let-down.

135
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:34,000
Instead, she cultivates a taste
for small pleasures.

136
00:12:35,300 --> 00:12:37,600
Plunging her hand deep into a sack of grain.

137
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,400
Cracking crème brûlée

138
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,500
with a teaspoon.

139
00:12:46,500 --> 00:12:49,100
And skimming stones on the Canal St Martin.

140
00:13:30,100 --> 00:13:32,900
They call him the Glass Man.

141
00:13:33,100 --> 00:13:35,700
He was born with bones as brittle as crystal.

142
00:13:36,900 --> 00:13:39,300
All his furniture is padded.

143
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,600
A handshake would be enough
to crush his fingers.

144
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:44,800
He's stayed indoors for 20 years.

145
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,000
Time has changed nothing.

146
00:13:51,100 --> 00:13:53,400
Amélie still takes refuge in solitude.

147
00:13:53,500 --> 00:13:58,000
She amuses herself with silly questions
about the world below,

148
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:02,100
such as: "How many couples
are having an orgasm now?"

149
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:13,500
Fifteen.

150
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,400
Finally, on the night of August 30th 1997.

151
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:24,100
comes the event
that will change her life for ever.

152
00:14:24,300 --> 00:14:28,700
Lady Di, Princess of Wales,
died in a car crash in Paris last night

153
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,700
with her companion Dodi Al Fayed...

154
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:27,400
Only the first man
to discover Tutankhamen's tomb

155
00:15:27,500 --> 00:15:29,500
would understand how she felt

156
00:15:29,700 --> 00:15:31,800
on finding this treasure

157
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:35,600
hidden by a little boy 40 years ago.

158
00:15:41,300 --> 00:15:43,800
On August 31st at 4am,

159
00:15:43,900 --> 00:15:46,800
Amélie has a dazzling idea.

160
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:50,400
Wherever he was,
she would find the box's owner

161
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,900
and give him back his treasure.

162
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:57,600
If he was touched,
she'd become a regular do-gooder.

163
00:15:57,800 --> 00:15:59,700
If not, too bad.

164
00:16:06,700 --> 00:16:10,300
The girl from the 5th floor!
We don't see much of you.

165
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:14,700
Would you know of a boy
who lived in my flat in the '50s?

166
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,100
A boy? Come and have a glass of port.

167
00:16:18,900 --> 00:16:21,600
- No, thanks.
- Come in! Close the door.

168
00:16:21,900 --> 00:16:25,800
Boys? I've known so many.

169
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:30,100
They're cute until they discover
snowballs and chestnuts.

170
00:16:30,300 --> 00:16:32,300
I've known so many boys.

171
00:16:32,500 --> 00:16:35,800
- When did you come here?
- In '64.

172
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,600
You'll have heard the story.

173
00:16:38,900 --> 00:16:41,000
No, I don't think so.

174
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:42,800
I'm amazed. Sit down.

175
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,500
My husband worked for Ladybird Insurance.

176
00:16:47,700 --> 00:16:51,000
It's no secret that he slept with his secretary.

177
00:16:52,700 --> 00:16:55,000
They used every hotel around.

178
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:56,800
Not the grotty ones, either.

179
00:16:56,900 --> 00:17:00,100
The bimbo liked spreading her legs,

180
00:17:00,300 --> 00:17:01,700
but only on satin.

181
00:17:01,900 --> 00:17:04,700
So my husband swiped from the till.

182
00:17:04,900 --> 00:17:07,800
A little at first, then 50 million.

183
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:11,200
Off they flew to South America.

184
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:14,500
Drink up.

185
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,500
On January 20th 1970,

186
00:17:19,700 --> 00:17:22,000
my doorbell rang.

187
00:17:22,100 --> 00:17:27,000
"Your husband's been killed
in a car crash in South America."

188
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,300
My life stopped there.

189
00:17:30,500 --> 00:17:33,500
And Black Lion died of heartbreak.

190
00:17:33,700 --> 00:17:36,400
Poor creature.

191
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,000
See how lovingly

192
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,100
he still stares at his master?

193
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:45,200
One day

194
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:46,800
I'll read you his letters.

195
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:48,600
No, don't go!

196
00:17:48,700 --> 00:17:51,000
You can spare five minutes.

197
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:52,800
He wrote this

198
00:17:52,900 --> 00:17:54,500
from the barracks.

199
00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:58,600
"Darling Mado." That's me.

200
00:17:58,700 --> 00:18:00,300
I'm called Madeleine.

201
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,300
"I can't sleep, can't eat,

202
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:08,000
knowing that my only reason to live
is far away in Paris.

203
00:18:08,300 --> 00:18:10,600
I won't see her until a fortnight on Friday,

204
00:18:10,700 --> 00:18:16,300
when my sweet little weasel
appears at the station

205
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,600
in her strappy blue dress."

206
00:18:19,700 --> 00:18:23,600
In brackets: "The one you think
is too transparent."

207
00:18:32,300 --> 00:18:34,500
Has anyone ever written to you like that?

208
00:18:34,700 --> 00:18:38,600
No. I'm nobody's little weasel.

209
00:18:38,900 --> 00:18:41,300
My name's Madeleine Wells.

210
00:18:41,500 --> 00:18:44,400
Madeleine, like Mary Magdalene.

211
00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:47,900
She wept, right? And Wells as in water.

212
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:52,200
Talk about being born to cry!

213
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:57,700
About your question...

214
00:18:57,900 --> 00:19:03,100
Ask Collignon, the grocer.
He's lived here all his life.

215
00:19:04,300 --> 00:19:06,600
Hello, Amélie-mellow!

216
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,200
A fig and three hazelnuts, as usual?

217
00:19:09,300 --> 00:19:12,000
Who lived in my flat in the '50s?

218
00:19:12,300 --> 00:19:16,100
- What was their name?
- You've got me there, dear.

219
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:20,000
In 1950, I was two.
The mental age of this cretin.

220
00:19:20,300 --> 00:19:21,800
The "cretin" is Lucien.

221
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,800
He's no genius, but Amélie likes him.
She likes the way

222
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,200
he handles each endive like a precious object

223
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,500
to be treated with care.
It's his way of showing

224
00:19:32,700 --> 00:19:34,000
his love of good work.

225
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:35,100
Look at him!

226
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:39,500
Like he's nursing a baby bird
that's fallen out of its nest!

227
00:19:39,700 --> 00:19:42,300
Don't ask him for currants!

228
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,000
You'd be here till Monday!

229
00:19:45,300 --> 00:19:47,100
Get moving, spastic!

230
00:19:47,300 --> 00:19:49,200
She hasn't got all day.

231
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,300
Here.

232
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:58,000
Go and see my mother.
She has the memory of an elephant.

233
00:19:58,100 --> 00:20:00,200
Elephant Mum!

234
00:20:01,700 --> 00:20:03,100
Thank you.

235
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:22,800
Bredoteau.

236
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:25,400
Sorry?

237
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:27,300
It's the name you're after.

238
00:20:27,300 --> 00:20:31,600
But if it's me that says so,
it won't count. I'm senile.

239
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:33,700
Ignore him. He's senile.

240
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:36,800
See what he's done to my laurel?

241
00:20:41,100 --> 00:20:43,600
His old job was punching métro tickets.

242
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:48,700
For three months now,
he's got up every night to punch holes

243
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:52,300
- in my laurels!
- I'd have preferred lilacs. Such is life!

244
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:56,900
- We all need a way to relax.
- I skim stones.

245
00:20:57,100 --> 00:21:01,100
- You do?
- I'll find it. Don't worry.

246
00:21:01,300 --> 00:21:04,100
- I file everything.
- Like what?

247
00:21:04,300 --> 00:21:08,900
Your son's nearly 50
and I'm still doing his book-keeping.

248
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:13,700
You were still squeezing his toothpaste at 15,
so it follows.

249
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,100
Right. Camus...

250
00:21:16,300 --> 00:21:20,100
2nd floor on the right. Brossard...
Brossard was on staircase B.

251
00:21:20,300 --> 00:21:21,800
Got it!

252
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,000
Bredoteau, 5th floor on the right.

253
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,800
They were from the Pas de Calais.

254
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,500
Bredoteau. What more can I say?

255
00:22:34,500 --> 00:22:37,900
Groping under the photo booth
is Nino Quincampoix.

256
00:22:42,500 --> 00:22:47,000
When Amélie lacked playmates,
Nino had too many.

257
00:22:58,300 --> 00:23:03,100
Five miles apart, one dreamed
of having a sister, the other a brother

258
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,300
to spend all their time with.

259
00:23:27,100 --> 00:23:28,100
Hi, Dad.

260
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:31,100
A new friend?

261
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:34,300
No, I've had him for years.

262
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:38,200
Your mother hated him,
so he lived in the tool shed.

263
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,300
There. Let's reconcile them.

264
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:46,800
There. Not bad, eh?

265
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:56,000
Dad, if you found a precious relic
from your childhood,

266
00:23:56,300 --> 00:24:00,000
how would it make you feel?
Happy? Sad? Nostalgic? What?

267
00:24:01,300 --> 00:24:03,600
I didn't have this gnome when I was a child.

268
00:24:03,900 --> 00:24:07,400
He was a retirement gift from my old regiment.

269
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:11,900
No, I mean something you hid
like a secret treasure.

270
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:15,600
I should varnish him before autumn.

271
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,100
I'll make some tea. Do you want some?

272
00:24:22,300 --> 00:24:24,300
Breathe in. Hold still.

273
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:28,000
Better now?

274
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:30,000
Shut the door!

275
00:24:30,100 --> 00:24:32,100
There's a howling gale.

276
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:34,100
It's hardly Siberia.

277
00:24:34,300 --> 00:24:36,700
I can see you're not allergic

278
00:24:36,900 --> 00:24:41,400
to car fumes.
I almost coughed up my pleura last night.

279
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,000
Coughed up a pleura? Sure.

280
00:24:43,100 --> 00:24:46,500
- What's on the menu today, Suzanne?
- Endives au gratin.

281
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,100
They'll have you on your knees, you'll see.

282
00:24:49,300 --> 00:24:50,400
They're good, then?

283
00:24:50,500 --> 00:24:52,600
- Depends where.
- If it's at the toilet...

284
00:24:52,700 --> 00:24:54,000
Not good!

285
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:03,400
12:15, laughs orgasmically
to attract alpha male.

286
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:06,400
He's going to drive me berserk!

287
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:10,200
Can't he give up?
There are plenty of other bars.

288
00:25:10,300 --> 00:25:12,200
Goodbye.

289
00:25:12,300 --> 00:25:13,500
Suzanne.

290
00:25:13,700 --> 00:25:15,500
- Suzanne.
- Yes.

291
00:25:15,700 --> 00:25:18,300
"Au gratin" means white sauce, right?

292
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,000
Yes, why?

293
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:24,900
I can't stomach it. Like you and horse meat.

294
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:27,800
It's not my stomach, it's my memory.

295
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:30,700
I'd rather cook human flesh.

296
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:32,800
You're kidding!

297
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:48,100
Suzanne, would you mind if I left early today?

298
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:50,300
What's his name?

299
00:25:50,500 --> 00:25:52,500
Dominique Bredoteau.

300
00:25:58,100 --> 00:25:59,900
Hello.

301
00:26:01,100 --> 00:26:02,900
Are you Dominique Bredoteau?

302
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:04,300
That's me.

303
00:26:04,500 --> 00:26:06,400
Why?

304
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:08,500
It's about...

305
00:26:09,700 --> 00:26:10,800
...the petition.

306
00:26:10,900 --> 00:26:12,200
Petition?

307
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:16,900
Yes. The petition to...

308
00:26:18,500 --> 00:26:20,300
...to canonise Lady Di.

309
00:26:20,500 --> 00:26:22,100
No, thanks.

310
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:23,200
No.

311
00:26:31,100 --> 00:26:33,600
Ladies and gentlemen, sorry to bother you...

312
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,600
- Yes?
- Hello.

313
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:44,300
I'm looking for Dominique Bredoteau
for the European census.

314
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:47,600
Come up. Third floor.

315
00:26:58,000 --> 00:26:59,000
Hello, kitten.

316
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:03,600
Earl Grey?

317
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:05,600
Jasmine?

318
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:08,700
What will you have?

319
00:27:12,700 --> 00:27:14,100
I'm working.

320
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,700
There. I'm coming.

321
00:27:25,900 --> 00:27:30,000
Do you know where I can find
Dominique Bredoteau?

322
00:27:30,300 --> 00:27:32,500
Oh, my poor dear!

323
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:34,700
You just missed him.

324
00:27:35,900 --> 00:27:38,500
Look, there he goes now.

325
00:27:48,100 --> 00:27:49,100
Bre-to-deau.

326
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:52,000
Not Bre-do-teau.

327
00:27:52,100 --> 00:27:53,900
You need

328
00:27:54,100 --> 00:27:57,400
a glass of mulled wine.

329
00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:59,300
Come in.

330
00:27:59,500 --> 00:28:00,600
Come on in.

331
00:28:03,700 --> 00:28:08,200
I've lived here for five years.
This is the first time we've met.

332
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:11,100
I never go out on the landing.

333
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:15,100
I'm fussy about who I meet.

334
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:16,700
They're all creeps anyway.

335
00:28:19,100 --> 00:28:21,500
Come in. Here.

336
00:28:21,700 --> 00:28:23,000
Come in.

337
00:28:24,100 --> 00:28:26,600
They call me the Glass Man,

338
00:28:26,700 --> 00:28:30,100
but my name is Raymond Dufayel.

339
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:35,500
- Amélie Poulain. I'm a waitress at...
- The Two Windmills. I know.

340
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:41,700
And you've come back empty-handed
from your search for Bretodeau.

341
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,500
Because it's not "do", it's "to".

342
00:28:46,700 --> 00:28:49,100
- Like "Toto".
- Thank you.

343
00:28:53,100 --> 00:28:54,700
I love that painting.

344
00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:57,400
It's the Luncheon Of The Boating Party.

345
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:00,200
By Renoir.

346
00:29:06,100 --> 00:29:09,900
I've painted one each year for twenty years.

347
00:29:11,700 --> 00:29:14,300
The hardest part is the looks.

348
00:29:14,500 --> 00:29:20,300
I sometimes feel they deliberately change
their mood as soon as my back's turned.

349
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,100
They look quite happy there.

350
00:29:22,300 --> 00:29:24,500
They should be.

351
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:26,600
This year they had hare with morels.

352
00:29:27,900 --> 00:29:31,400
And waffles with jam for the children.

353
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:36,900
Now, what have I done
with that piece of paper?

354
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:44,400
Ah, you've noticed my video camera
at the window.

355
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,200
It's a gift from my sister-in-law.

356
00:29:47,300 --> 00:29:50,100
I put it there

357
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:53,000
so I don't need to wind up my clocks.

358
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,100
After all these years,

359
00:29:57,300 --> 00:30:01,400
the only person I still can't capture

360
00:30:01,700 --> 00:30:03,800
is the girl with the glass of water.

361
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,400
She's in the middle,

362
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:08,300
yet she's on the outside.

363
00:30:10,100 --> 00:30:12,500
Maybe she's just different from the others.

364
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:15,300
In what way?

365
00:30:17,100 --> 00:30:18,400
I don't know.

366
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:23,600
When she was little, she can't
have played much with other children.

367
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:27,800
Maybe never.

368
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:32,900
Here.

369
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:36,800
Dominique Bretodeau, 27 Rue Mouffetard.

370
00:30:38,300 --> 00:30:39,500
It's for you.

371
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:45,600
Every Tuesday morning,
Dominique Bretodeau goes to buy a chicken.

372
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:48,800
He usually roasts it
and has it with sauté potatoes.

373
00:30:49,100 --> 00:30:52,200
After carving the legs,
the breast and the wings,

374
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:56,200
he loves picking the hot carcass
with his fingers,

375
00:30:56,500 --> 00:30:58,100
starting with the oysters.

376
00:31:01,300 --> 00:31:05,000
But not today. Bretodeau won't buy a chicken.

377
00:31:05,100 --> 00:31:06,500
He'll go no further

378
00:31:06,700 --> 00:31:08,300
than this phone booth here.

379
00:32:18,700 --> 00:32:21,800
In a flash, it all came back to him.

380
00:32:22,100 --> 00:32:25,200
Federico Bahamontes
winning the Tour de France in '59.

381
00:32:28,300 --> 00:32:30,200
Aunt Josette's slips.

382
00:32:32,900 --> 00:32:35,800
And most of all, that tragic day.

383
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,800
That tragic day
when he won all the marbles at break time.

384
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:50,800
Bretodeau!

385
00:32:54,100 --> 00:32:55,200
Bretodeau!

386
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,800
The pinch, Bretodeau!

387
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,000
Do you understand, Bretodeau?

388
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:16,100
Cognac, please.

389
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:24,200
It's amazing, what just happened to me.

390
00:33:24,300 --> 00:33:28,300
It must be my guardian angel.
It's the only explanation.

391
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:30,900
It was as if the phone booth was calling me.

392
00:33:31,100 --> 00:33:33,400
It rang and rang.

393
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,000
Same here. The microwave's calling me.

394
00:33:41,300 --> 00:33:43,300
I'll have another cognac.

395
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:53,500
Life's strange.

396
00:33:56,100 --> 00:34:00,300
To a kid, time always drags.
Suddenly you're 50.

397
00:34:02,700 --> 00:34:04,700
All that's left of your childhood

398
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:07,000
fits in a little box,

399
00:34:07,100 --> 00:34:08,500
a little rusty box.

400
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:14,400
Have you got kids, miss?

401
00:34:19,700 --> 00:34:22,200
I have a daughter.
She must be about your age.

402
00:34:26,100 --> 00:34:28,000
We haven't spoken for years.

403
00:34:29,100 --> 00:34:31,900
I heard she had a child, a boy.

404
00:34:33,300 --> 00:34:34,200
His name is Lucas.

405
00:34:40,900 --> 00:34:45,200
I think it's time I looked them up
before I'm in a box myself.

406
00:34:46,700 --> 00:34:48,100
Don't you think?

407
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:59,900
Amélie suddenly has a strange feeling
of complete harmony.

408
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:05,900
It's a perfect moment. Soft light,
a scent in the air, the quiet murmur of the city,

409
00:35:07,500 --> 00:35:10,600
She breathes deeply.
Life seems so simple and clear.

410
00:35:10,700 --> 00:35:15,300
A surge of love,
an urge to help mankind suddenly engulfs her.

411
00:35:27,900 --> 00:35:30,400
Let me help you. Step down.

412
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,500
Off we go!
We just passed the drum major's widow!

413
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:36,500
She's worn his coat since the day he died.
Careful.

414
00:35:36,700 --> 00:35:39,700
The horse's head on the butcher's
has lost an ear.

415
00:35:39,900 --> 00:35:43,300
That's the florist laughing. He has crinkly eyes.

416
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,400
In the bakery window there are lollipops!

417
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:48,300
Mmm. Smell that.

418
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:50,500
They're giving out melon slices.

419
00:35:52,300 --> 00:35:54,700
Sugarplum ice cream!

420
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:57,400
We're passing the pork butcher.

421
00:35:57,500 --> 00:35:59,800
Ham, 79 francs. Spareribs, 45!

422
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:04,600
Now the cheese shop.
Picodons are 12.90, cabecous 23.50.

423
00:36:04,900 --> 00:36:09,300
At the butcher's a baby's watching a dog
that's watching the chickens roasting.

424
00:36:09,500 --> 00:36:12,800
Now we're at the newspaper kiosk
by the métro.

425
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,000
I'll leave you here. Bye.

426
00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:08,800
"She can't relate to other people."

427
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:13,800
"She was always a lonely child."

428
00:37:16,900 --> 00:37:19,700
On a sparkling evening in July,

429
00:37:19,900 --> 00:37:22,600
while on the beaches holidaymakers

430
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,300
relax in the new-found sun,

431
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:27,800
and in Paris the sweltering crowds

432
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,300
gaze at the first bursts

433
00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:33,000
of the traditional fireworks,
Amélie Poulain,

434
00:37:33,100 --> 00:37:36,700
godmother of outcasts,

435
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:39,300
Madonna of the unloved,

436
00:37:39,500 --> 00:37:41,600
finally succumbs to exhaustion.

437
00:37:41,700 --> 00:37:46,300
In Paris' grief-stricken streets,

438
00:37:46,500 --> 00:37:49,200
a vast throng of mourners

439
00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:52,400
line her funeral route in silence

440
00:37:52,500 --> 00:37:56,800
with the measureless sorrow
of newly orphaned children.

441
00:37:58,100 --> 00:38:00,100
What a strange destiny for one

442
00:38:00,300 --> 00:38:01,600
who gave her all,

443
00:38:01,700 --> 00:38:07,100
yet took such joy in life's simple pleasures.

444
00:38:07,500 --> 00:38:10,900
Like Don Quixote, she pitted herself

445
00:38:11,100 --> 00:38:14,100
against the grinding windmill
of all life's miseries.

446
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:28,600
It was a losing battle

447
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:30,700
that claimed her life too soon.

448
00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:33,000
At barely 23, Amélie Poulain

449
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:36,600
let her young, tired body merge

450
00:38:36,900 --> 00:38:40,200
with the ebb and flow of universal woe.

451
00:38:40,300 --> 00:38:46,300
As she went, she felt a stab of regret
for letting her father die

452
00:38:46,700 --> 00:38:50,100
without trying to give his stifled life

453
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:54,300
the breath of air she had given

454
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:56,500
to so many others.

455
00:41:12,700 --> 00:41:13,700
Wait!

456
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:20,500
Wait!

457
00:41:23,500 --> 00:41:24,400
Wait...

458
00:41:25,900 --> 00:41:26,900
Wait, wait!

459
00:42:13,500 --> 00:42:18,700
Pages full of dud ID photos
torn up and discarded by their owners,

460
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:22,500
carefully reassembled by some oddball.

461
00:42:23,700 --> 00:42:25,700
Some family album!

462
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:31,400
A pack of Gauloises.

463
00:42:31,500 --> 00:42:35,400
Just a second. It's so smoky in here.
Can you tell me where they are?

464
00:42:35,700 --> 00:42:38,300
- I can't see a thing.
- More to the left.

465
00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:40,000
- There?
- A bit more. There.

466
00:42:42,900 --> 00:42:45,100
Thank you. You need change.

467
00:42:45,300 --> 00:42:47,600
Forget it.

468
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:49,700
- Yes?
- A mauresque.

469
00:42:49,700 --> 00:42:52,100
A mauresque for the young man.

470
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:55,600
One kir aligoté, one mauresque,
and two mint sodas.

471
00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:58,900
Was that prenuptial or post-coital smooching?

472
00:42:59,100 --> 00:43:01,100
Is your bullshit congenital?

473
00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:05,200
- Prenuptial.
- Don't worry.

474
00:43:05,300 --> 00:43:07,300
You'll find Mr. Right one day.

475
00:43:08,500 --> 00:43:11,700
All women want to sleep on a man's shoulder.
All of them.

476
00:43:11,900 --> 00:43:16,500
All men snore after a few drinks,
and I have a musical ear.

477
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:20,400
I had an operation on my nasal cavities.

478
00:43:20,500 --> 00:43:22,500
I see you're a born romantic.

479
00:43:24,500 --> 00:43:27,100
I see you've never known true love.

480
00:43:28,500 --> 00:43:30,900
I did. It shortened my leg.

481
00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:36,900
- I thought you fell off a horse.
- I did.

482
00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:39,500
I was in love with a trapeze artist.

483
00:43:39,700 --> 00:43:42,800
I should have known.
They always drop you at the last minute.

484
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:45,600
He dropped me just before my act.

485
00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:51,300
It floored me. And the horse.

486
00:43:51,500 --> 00:43:54,400
With me under it.

487
00:43:56,500 --> 00:43:58,700
The mauresque?

488
00:43:58,900 --> 00:44:01,700
Still, true love does exist.

489
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:05,600
I'm not saying it doesn't.
After 30 years behind this bar,

490
00:44:05,900 --> 00:44:09,400
I'm an expert. I can even give you the recipe.

491
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:14,500
Take two regulars.

492
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:17,800
Let each think the other fancies them.
Leave it to simmer.

493
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:19,800
It never fails.

494
00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:30,000
Excuse me!

495
00:44:30,100 --> 00:44:31,800
Excuse me.

496
00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:33,500
- I've had enough.
- I'll go.

497
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:39,400
Haven't you hurt enough people?

498
00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:44,800
Gina can defend herself.

499
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:48,100
I don't mean Gina. I mean Georgette.

500
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:52,300
Georgette?

501
00:44:52,500 --> 00:44:55,400
Open your eyes! She craves your attention

502
00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:57,300
but you only have eyes for Gina.

503
00:44:59,700 --> 00:45:02,900
Poor girl! The things she does

504
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,000
to catch your eye!

505
00:45:07,700 --> 00:45:09,600
You really must be blind.

506
00:45:18,500 --> 00:45:20,500
I'm off on a date. Bye!

507
00:45:20,500 --> 00:45:22,500
Goodbye.

508
00:45:24,900 --> 00:45:27,200
Whoever her new one is,

509
00:45:27,300 --> 00:45:30,800
he can't be worse
than that nut with his tape recorder.

510
00:45:32,100 --> 00:45:34,000
Joseph's not so nutty.

511
00:45:35,100 --> 00:45:36,700
He's just in pain.

512
00:45:36,900 --> 00:45:39,800
Come off it, Amélie.
They split up two months ago.

513
00:45:39,900 --> 00:45:43,100
To keep on coming here every day,
he must be a masochist.

514
00:45:43,300 --> 00:45:46,200
Don't say you haven't noticed.

515
00:45:48,100 --> 00:45:49,200
Noticed what?

516
00:45:49,300 --> 00:45:52,000
He always sits here, right?

517
00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:53,600
Yes.

518
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:55,100
Sit down.

519
00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:57,400
Sit down, Georgette.

520
00:45:59,900 --> 00:46:02,800
- What can you see?
- My cigarette counter.

521
00:46:03,900 --> 00:46:06,000
And nothing's missing?

522
00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:07,200
No.

523
00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:09,700
Make an effort.

524
00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:18,600
I don't get it!

525
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:22,300
I'll leave you to think about it. Good night.

526
00:46:39,100 --> 00:46:41,900
Good morning.

527
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:45,400
Letter Arrives 30 Years Late.

528
00:46:45,500 --> 00:46:51,900
A mailbag found by climbers
on a glacier on Mont Blanc was part of a cargo

529
00:46:52,300 --> 00:46:55,700
lost in a plane crash in the late 1960s.

530
00:46:56,900 --> 00:47:00,300
So sad! A young, pretty princess for once.

531
00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:02,700
Would it be less sad if she were old and ugly?

532
00:47:02,900 --> 00:47:05,000
Of course. Look at Mother Teresa.

533
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,400
Is he still chasing Gina?

534
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:11,700
No, he's after somebody else now.

535
00:47:11,900 --> 00:47:16,100
- Anyone I know?
- Yes.

536
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:18,700
Funny about this glacier.

537
00:47:18,900 --> 00:47:21,600
Somebody at The Two Windmills?

538
00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:23,800
Not you, surely!

539
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:25,100
No.

540
00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:29,000
Not Suzanne.

541
00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:31,100
Surely not!

542
00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:32,800
Yes.

543
00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:40,000
- Look. There he is again.
- How strange.

544
00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:43,400
- And here.
- Him again.

545
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:45,100
"Gare de Lyon."

546
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:48,000
And here.

547
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:49,700
"March 5th, Austerlitz."

548
00:47:49,900 --> 00:47:53,600
Always the same blank expression.

549
00:47:54,900 --> 00:47:56,300
Twelve times.

550
00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:59,200
I counted.

551
00:47:59,500 --> 00:48:00,700
It's very odd.

552
00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:05,500
Why keep taking your picture all over town
only to throw them away?

553
00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:08,500
Good ones, too.

554
00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:11,400
It's like a sort of ritual.

555
00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:13,700
Maybe he's so terrified

556
00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:17,000
of growing old, it's his only consolation.

557
00:48:19,100 --> 00:48:20,300
He's dead.

558
00:48:21,600 --> 00:48:22,600
Dead?

559
00:48:22,700 --> 00:48:25,400
Yes. He's scared of being forgotten.

560
00:48:25,500 --> 00:48:29,600
So he uses the photo booths
to remind people what he looks like.

561
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:34,000
Like faxing his portrait from the afterlife.

562
00:48:34,300 --> 00:48:38,100
A dead man who's scared of being forgotten.

563
00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:41,400
At least these guys here have made it.

564
00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:43,600
They're long dead,

565
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:47,500
but they'll never be forgotten.

566
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:52,300
- The girl with the glass...
- Yes.

567
00:48:52,500 --> 00:48:55,700
Maybe she's distracted
because she's thinking about someone.

568
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:57,800
Somebody in the picture?

569
00:48:59,500 --> 00:49:00,400
No.

570
00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:03,200
More likely a boy she saw somewhere,

571
00:49:03,300 --> 00:49:06,600
and felt an affinity with.

572
00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:12,700
You mean, she'd rather imagine herself
relating to someone who's absent

573
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:17,500
than build relationships with those around her?

574
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:21,300
No.

575
00:49:21,300 --> 00:49:25,300
Maybe she tries hard
to fix other people's messy lives.

576
00:49:25,600 --> 00:49:27,400
What about her?

577
00:49:27,600 --> 00:49:30,400
And her own messy life?

578
00:49:32,100 --> 00:49:34,000
Who'll fix that?

579
00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:39,100
It's better to help people than a garden gnome.

580
00:50:51,100 --> 00:50:56,100
The driver had 2.8g of alcohol in his blood!

581
00:50:56,300 --> 00:50:57,700
Makes me sick!

582
00:50:57,900 --> 00:51:00,700
Talk about employing irresponsible morons!

583
00:51:00,900 --> 00:51:02,100
Mr. Collignon.

584
00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:06,100
- You forgot your keys...
- Hold on, Amélie-mellow. Speed kills.

585
00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:08,500
Model yourself on Lucien.

586
00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:12,200
No radar will ever catch him
while he's working, will it?

587
00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:14,800
You shouldn't do that, Mr. Collignon.

588
00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:16,800
It's not his fault.

589
00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:18,600
True, Mrs. Cauchoix!

590
00:51:18,700 --> 00:51:22,500
It's not his fault he can't sleep. It's Lady Di's.

591
00:51:24,500 --> 00:51:28,700
Guess what I found in the truck.
A lingerie catalogue.

592
00:51:28,900 --> 00:51:33,200
He'd pasted Lady Di's face over the model's.

593
00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:37,000
What today? Five asparagus,

594
00:51:37,100 --> 00:51:39,000
or more local history?

595
00:51:39,100 --> 00:51:40,400
Nothing.

596

[KEYS CUT WHILE YOU WAIT]

597
00:52:03,100 --> 00:52:06,000
Thank you.

598
00:52:06,100 --> 00:52:08,100
The migraine seems to be better.

599
00:52:08,300 --> 00:52:12,000
Yes, but my sciatica kept me awake all night.

600
00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:15,900
- It's ages since I saw you looking so good.
- Really?

601
00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:21,100
A woman without love
withers like a flower without sun.

602
00:52:27,100 --> 00:52:29,100
Strange weather today.

603
00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:30,800
What's so funny?

604
00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:34,200
Everyone who's come in today
has given us a weather report.

605
00:52:34,300 --> 00:52:37,500
We pass the time of day
to forget how time passes.

606
00:52:37,700 --> 00:52:40,100
We do it to keep us from talking crap.

607
00:52:40,300 --> 00:52:42,900
I write crap but nobody wants to publish it.

608
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:45,500
- Another rejection?
- My thirtieth.

609
00:52:45,600 --> 00:52:47,900
Isn't your cousin a book critic?

610
00:52:48,100 --> 00:52:51,000
Forget it! Critics are like leeches

611
00:52:51,100 --> 00:52:54,300
sucking the blood of writers.

612
00:52:54,500 --> 00:52:57,900
Is your book a love story?

613
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:01,000
No, it's about a guy who keeps a journal.

614
00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:03,400
Not about what's happened to him,

615
00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:06,200
but disasters that might happen in the future.

616
00:53:06,500 --> 00:53:11,600
- So he gets depressed and does nothing.
- So basically, it's about a loafer.

617
00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:13,800
Suzanne,

618
00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:16,500
I'll dedicate the manuscript to you.

619
00:53:16,700 --> 00:53:19,700
He's only doing it so you'll write off his tab!

620

That's sponsorship.

00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:08,300
- You've already asked me that.
- Yes. Yes.

You're keeping well?

634
00:56:13,600 --> 00:56:15,000
Pretty much.

635
00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:18,300
I feel a change.

636
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:25,200
I had two heart attacks
and had to have an abortion

637
00:56:25,400 --> 00:56:27,700
because I did crack while I was pregnant.

638
00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:30,500
Other than that, I'm fine.

Good.

No, nothing.

No explanation.

Maybe he just wanted to see the world.

649
00:57:15,400 --> 00:57:16,900

707
01:03:18,300 --> 01:03:20,800
Collignon, dead and gone!

708
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:23,100
Very good!

709
01:03:23,200 --> 01:03:24,200
Collignon...

710
01:03:24,300 --> 01:03:28,200
- Collignon, big moron, down the john!
- That's it!

711
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:38,300
OK! That's enough for today.

712
01:03:38,500 --> 01:03:40,400
Enough! Enough!

713
01:03:40,500 --> 01:03:43,400
Lucien, stop!

714
01:03:43,500 --> 01:03:45,200
Very good.

715
01:03:46,800 --> 01:03:50,100
Mr. Dufayel, I found this under your mat.

716
01:05:07,400 --> 01:05:09,400
Still no win!

717
01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:11,400
Me neither.

718
01:05:14,500 --> 01:05:15,500
May I?

719
01:05:16,900 --> 01:05:18,900
There's a little...

720
01:05:24,800 --> 01:05:26,000
You're gorgeous

721
01:05:26,100 --> 01:05:27,700
when you blush.

722
01:05:28,800 --> 01:05:31,100
Like a wild flower.

723
01:05:31,200 --> 01:05:34,400
It's my dyspepsia.

724
01:05:36,200 --> 01:05:37,200
Morning, all.

725
01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:39,900
Beautiful day.

726
01:05:59,100 --> 01:06:00,800
Pack of Gitanes, please.

727
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:04,700
Bravo! Vive la France! You scalded me.

728
01:06:04,900 --> 01:06:09,100
Bravo! Ten out of ten! Bull's-eye!

729
01:06:13,300 --> 01:06:15,400
It was Amélie. She...

730
01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:53,200
Do you know what happened
when they went up Mont Blanc?

731
01:06:53,500 --> 01:06:55,800
The silicon in her face froze up.

732
01:06:56,000 --> 01:07:00,300
Her face was a festering mass!

733
01:07:26,400 --> 01:07:30,000
Mulled wine and ginger biscuits.

734
01:07:31,300 --> 01:07:32,800
Thank you.

735
01:07:32,900 --> 01:07:36,000
I was too hard the other day
on the girl with the glass.

736
01:07:37,200 --> 01:07:41,000
Tell me about that boy she saw.
Did they meet again?

737
01:07:42,700 --> 01:07:43,600
No.

738
01:07:44,900 --> 01:07:46,500
They're into different things.

739
01:07:47,600 --> 01:07:50,100
Luck is like the Tour de France.

740
01:07:50,200 --> 01:07:52,200
You wait, and it flashes past you.

741
01:07:54,000 --> 01:07:57,700
You have to catch it while you can.

742
01:08:22,400 --> 01:08:24,000
Can I help you?

743
01:08:24,100 --> 01:08:27,100
Excuse me.
I found this album in the street and I...

744
01:08:27,400 --> 01:08:31,700
Nino will be so pleased!
He was so sad the other day.

745
01:08:32,000 --> 01:08:33,900
I almost prayed to St Anthony.

746
01:08:35,500 --> 01:08:37,600
Is... Nino there?

747
01:08:37,700 --> 01:08:40,400
No. On Wednesdays he works at the funfair.

748
01:08:42,800 --> 01:08:44,800
How long has he had this collection?

749
01:08:45,000 --> 01:08:49,200
Since I got him the job here, last year.

750
01:08:49,500 --> 01:08:53,500
Before, he collected footprints.
He worked nights.

751
01:08:53,700 --> 01:08:59,400
In the daytime
he took pictures of footprints in wet cement.

752
01:08:59,700 --> 01:09:01,800
He's a funny guy.

753
01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:04,100
When we met, he was a Santa Claus.

754
01:09:07,400 --> 01:09:09,100
Other things like...

755
01:09:09,200 --> 01:09:12,900
Whenever he heard a funny laugh, he'd tape it.

756
01:09:17,200 --> 01:09:18,200
Really?

757
01:09:20,100 --> 01:09:22,600
Must be hard for his girlfriend.

758
01:09:22,800 --> 01:09:25,000
He never keeps them long.

759
01:09:25,100 --> 01:09:27,800
Times are hard for dreamers.

760
01:09:28,100 --> 01:09:30,700
Eva! Where are those coffees?

761
01:09:30,900 --> 01:09:33,200
I'd better go. Thanks for the album.

762
01:09:33,400 --> 01:09:36,900
It's OK. I've got time to take it to the funfair.

763
01:09:37,000 --> 01:09:41,300
Suit yourself. The ghost train.
Ask for Nino Quincampoix, like the street.

764
01:10:05,800 --> 01:10:07,800
I'm looking for Nino. Is he here?

765
01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:10,000
He doesn't get off till seven.

766
01:10:11,600 --> 01:10:13,900
- Is there no way to see him before?
- Sure.

767
01:10:15,400 --> 01:10:16,900
20 francs.

768
01:11:28,000 --> 01:11:29,600
See you next Wednesday.

769
01:11:41,300 --> 01:11:45,500
5pm tomorrow, Montmartre carousel
near the phone box. Bring a 5 franc piece.

770
01:12:03,800 --> 01:12:05,800
Want to know about her?

771
01:12:08,500 --> 01:12:11,300
- You know her? You saw her?
- You bet.

772
01:12:11,500 --> 01:12:13,400
She put us in her shirt pocket.

773
01:12:14,600 --> 01:12:16,100
Next to her breast.

774
01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:18,000
Is she pretty?

775
01:12:18,100 --> 01:12:20,000
Not bad.

776
01:12:21,200 --> 01:12:23,100
- Beautiful.
- No, pretty.

777
01:12:23,200 --> 01:12:24,400
- Beautiful.
- Pretty.

778
01:12:24,600 --> 01:12:28,300
- What does she want from you?
- She's broke.

779
01:12:28,500 --> 01:12:31,100
She wants a reward for the album.

780
01:12:31,300 --> 01:12:33,400
Or she collects photos, too.

781
01:12:33,600 --> 01:12:37,700
She wants to trade us
for a one-eyed man with glasses!

782
01:12:42,500 --> 01:12:43,500
No, you dope!

783
01:12:45,100 --> 01:12:47,300
She's in love.

784
01:12:47,500 --> 01:12:50,100
- I don't even know her.
- Yes, you do.

785
01:12:50,400 --> 01:12:52,100
Since when?

786
01:12:52,200 --> 01:12:53,800
You've always known her.

787
01:12:54,000 --> 01:12:55,200
In your dreams.

788
01:13:08,200 --> 01:13:09,700
Hello?

789
01:13:09,900 --> 01:13:13,800
Yes. You! Man with the plastic bag! It's for you.

790
01:13:15,500 --> 01:13:16,900
- Me?
- Yes.

791
01:13:20,300 --> 01:13:21,300
Thank you.

792
01:13:23,300 --> 01:13:24,300
Hello?

793
01:13:24,400 --> 01:13:27,000
Follow the blue arrows, Mr. Quincampoix.

794
01:14:52,500 --> 01:14:56,700
When the finger's pointing to the sky,
only a fool looks at the finger.

795
01:16:09,400 --> 01:16:10,400
Hello?

796
01:16:11,500 --> 01:16:13,700
I know the stranger in the pictures.

797
01:16:13,900 --> 01:16:17,800
He's a ghost. He's invisible, Mr. Quincampoix.

798
01:16:18,000 --> 01:16:21,300
He only appears when the film is developed.

799
01:16:21,400 --> 01:16:24,600
When a girl has her photo taken,

800
01:16:24,900 --> 01:16:30,600
he goes "Oooh!" in her ear,
while he gently caresses her neck.

801
01:16:30,900 --> 01:16:33,300
That's how he got caught, Mr. Quincampoix.

802
01:16:37,200 --> 01:16:38,400
Who are you?

803
01:16:38,500 --> 01:16:39,900

804
01:16:48,500 --> 01:16:50,000
[DO YOU

805
01:16:50,200 --> 01:16:51,900
WANT

806
01:16:52,100 --> 01:16:54,400
TO MEET ME?]

807
01:18:32,300 --> 01:18:35,000
Listen to this. "A boy of six,

808
01:18:35,200 --> 01:18:37,300
while his parents sleep, drives off

809
01:18:37,400 --> 01:18:39,100
in a pedal car.

810
01:18:39,200 --> 01:18:42,800
Found on a motorway
near Münster in Germany,

811
01:18:42,900 --> 01:18:46,400
he told the police he wanted to see the stars."

812
01:18:46,600 --> 01:18:50,100
Isn't life beautiful, eh?

813
01:18:50,300 --> 01:18:54,700
Love. The only bug she hadn't caught!

814
01:18:54,900 --> 01:18:57,800
- Nobody's immune.
- At least it gives me a break.

815
01:18:58,100 --> 01:19:00,200
Love's a great beautician.

816
01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:05,700
What's she like? Tall? Small? Blonde? Dark?

817
01:19:08,400 --> 01:19:10,300
Let's say... average height.

818
01:19:11,700 --> 01:19:14,600
Not a dwarf or a giraffe. Normal.

819
01:19:16,100 --> 01:19:18,200
Pretty, for her type.

820
01:19:18,400 --> 01:19:20,600
As for blonde or dark...

821
01:19:22,400 --> 01:19:25,300
...it's hard to say, but she wasn't a redhead.

822
01:19:25,500 --> 01:19:27,200
- Unless...
- Forget it.

823
01:19:28,400 --> 01:19:33,100
I do remember she casually asked
if you had a girlfriend.

824
01:19:33,400 --> 01:19:34,300
And?

825
01:19:34,500 --> 01:19:36,800
I said you weren't interested, right?

826
01:19:38,300 --> 01:19:39,700
You didn't!

827
01:19:39,900 --> 01:19:42,000
What do you care? You don't even know her.

828
01:19:43,200 --> 01:19:47,200
- Exactly. It's the mystery.
- You won't find mystery here.

829
01:19:47,400 --> 01:19:49,500
A pound of nectarines, please.

830
01:19:49,700 --> 01:19:52,400
These ones here are the prettiest.

831
01:19:52,600 --> 01:19:54,600
Trust him. He's an artist!

832
01:19:54,700 --> 01:19:57,700
He's been going home every night
with tons of unsold stock.

833
01:19:57,800 --> 01:20:00,900
What for? Is he stewing a pig?

834
01:20:01,000 --> 01:20:03,100
No, sir! He's studying art!

835
01:20:03,200 --> 01:20:06,800
He sells leeks all day long
and paints turnips all night!

836
01:20:07,000 --> 01:20:09,000
The boy's a useless vegetable.

837
01:20:09,200 --> 01:20:10,600
A good prompter

838
01:20:10,700 --> 01:20:14,100
in each cellar window
whispering cutting retorts

839
01:20:14,300 --> 01:20:16,800
would mean shy people had the last laugh.

840
01:20:17,000 --> 01:20:19,300
At least you'll never be a vegetable.

841
01:20:19,500 --> 01:20:21,600
Even artichokes

842
01:20:21,800 --> 01:20:22,800
have hearts.

843
01:20:25,900 --> 01:20:29,300
You'll never be a vegetable.
Even artichokes have hearts!

844
01:21:10,900 --> 01:21:12,400
Memory seven.

845
01:21:30,200 --> 01:21:34,300
Darling Mado,
I miss you more and more each day.

846
01:21:34,500 --> 01:21:37,700
I'm an exile in a world of dreary khaki.

847
01:21:37,800 --> 01:21:40,000
I can't sleep, can't eat...

848
01:21:40,200 --> 01:21:42,700
This camp was the biggest mistake of my life,

849
01:21:42,900 --> 01:21:46,500
depriving me of my beloved
for five long weeks.

850
01:21:46,800 --> 01:21:49,500
I think of you endlessly. Your Adrien.

851
01:21:51,400 --> 01:21:56,000
I turned down my last month's wages
instead of giving notice.

852
01:21:57,200 --> 01:22:00,400
I dream of better times ahead.

853
01:22:00,700 --> 01:22:04,500
An orange-coloured day. Remember, my love?

854
01:22:04,600 --> 01:22:06,600
Your ever-loving Adrien.

855
01:22:08,600 --> 01:22:09,900
Good news, darling Mado.

856
01:22:10,000 --> 01:22:13,100
Soon I'll be able to afford a car

857
01:22:13,400 --> 01:22:15,800
and drive home every night.

858
01:22:15,900 --> 01:22:20,200
Till then, meet me on Friday and we'll go out.

859
01:25:07,300 --> 01:25:09,400
[MOTHER]

860
01:25:12,300 --> 01:25:14,300

01:25:16,000 --> 01:25:18,000
Hello? Hello?

862
01:25:46,800 --> 01:25:49,100
[WHERE & WHEN?]

863
01:25:59,000 --> 01:26:01,300
One hour later at 11 Boulevard St Martin,

864
01:26:01,500 --> 01:26:04,900
Amélie walks into a party goods
and costume shop.

865
01:26:06,100 --> 01:26:10,400
At the same time,
a man leaves his home at 108 Rue Lecourbe.

866
01:26:12,600 --> 01:26:16,200
26 minutes later, Amélie is at the photo booth
at the Gare de I'Est.

867
01:26:20,600 --> 01:26:24,500
Simultaneously,
the man in red shoes parks outside.

868
01:26:24,700 --> 01:26:28,000
The time is exactly 11:40.

869
01:27:13,700 --> 01:27:15,700
At this precise moment,

870
01:27:15,900 --> 01:27:20,400
only Amélie has the key
to the riddle of the mystery man.

871
01:27:25,500 --> 01:27:27,100
How's it going, Mrs. Wells?

872
01:27:27,300 --> 01:27:30,000
It's always better when it's not raining.

873
01:27:30,200 --> 01:27:32,500
- This is for you.
- Me?

874
01:27:42,500 --> 01:27:46,100
Dear Mrs. Wells,
We recently recovered a mailbag

875
01:27:46,200 --> 01:27:48,200
that was lost in a plane crash

876
01:27:48,400 --> 01:27:51,900
on October 12th 1969 on Mont Blanc.

to your address.

for the uncustomary delay.

the biggest mistake of my life.

01:28:14,900 --> 01:28:17,500
I turned down that woman's money.

884
01:28:17,700 --> 01:28:22,400
If all goes well,
I'll soon be able to afford a house.

885
01:28:22,700 --> 01:28:25,600
I dream of better times ahead

886
01:28:25,800 --> 01:28:29,500
when you'll forgive me and join me here

887
01:28:29,700 --> 01:28:32,900
one orange-coloured day.
Your ever-loving Adrien.

888
01:29:02,900 --> 01:29:05,000
Mr. Dufayel, another package for you.

889
01:29:14,900 --> 01:29:18,000
Mr. Dufayel, do you know
what happened to the concierge?

890
01:29:19,600 --> 01:29:20,800
She got a letter.

891
01:29:22,000 --> 01:29:24,700
From her husband. 40 years late.

892
01:29:27,100 --> 01:29:29,100
That's a lot, isn't it, Mr. Dufayel?

893
01:29:42,400 --> 01:29:45,700
I'm not big on still life, Mr. Dufayel.

894
01:29:46,000 --> 01:29:48,800
Then work on your thin layer.

895
01:29:49,000 --> 01:29:51,600
Fat over thin. Always!

896
01:30:10,600 --> 01:30:12,300
- Mr. Dufayel...
- Yes!

897
01:30:12,400 --> 01:30:16,500
The papers said
that there'll soon be a new star.

898
01:30:16,800 --> 01:30:23,600
- So you're into stars now?
- I saw it on TV at my mum's, that's why.

899
01:30:25,800 --> 01:30:27,500
I don't know if it's true.

900
01:30:27,600 --> 01:30:29,800
In America

901
01:30:30,000 --> 01:30:33,100
they're going to take all the rich people's ashes,

902
01:30:33,300 --> 01:30:35,900
put them in a satellite

903
01:30:36,000 --> 01:30:38,200
and shoot it into space.

904
01:30:38,400 --> 01:30:40,600
The satellite's going to shine for ever.

905
01:30:45,400 --> 01:30:46,900
And Lady Di...

906
01:30:47,000 --> 01:30:49,200
Will they do the same for her?

907
01:30:49,300 --> 01:30:50,300
Lady Di, Lady Di!

908
01:30:50,400 --> 01:30:51,500
Give it a rest!

909
01:30:51,700 --> 01:30:54,300
I can't concentrate.

910
01:30:56,600 --> 01:30:57,600
Lady Di!

911
01:30:58,700 --> 01:30:59,600
Lady Di!

912
01:31:00,900 --> 01:31:01,900
Renoir.

913
01:32:43,200 --> 01:32:44,200
Morning, sir.

914
01:33:01,000 --> 01:33:02,000
Cambodia.

915
01:33:07,600 --> 01:33:09,200
I don't understand.

916
01:33:09,400 --> 01:33:13,100
Brilliant! You couldn't have done better.

917
01:33:13,400 --> 01:33:16,400
- Did it work?
- It's getting there.

918
01:33:16,600 --> 01:33:19,400
Ask me again any time. The harm's done.

919
01:33:19,500 --> 01:33:23,000
- What do you mean?
- Everybody calls me Snow White!

920
01:34:29,100 --> 01:34:31,800
[The Two Windmills café from 4pm.]

921
01:34:38,400 --> 01:34:40,300
- Eva?
- Yes?

922
01:34:40,300 --> 01:34:43,900
Could you stand in for me at four?

923
01:34:44,200 --> 01:34:46,000
Again?

924
01:34:49,400 --> 01:34:50,800
Close the door!

925
01:34:53,100 --> 01:34:55,000
What's up with him?

926
01:34:55,000 --> 01:34:56,700
Is he sulking?

927
01:34:56,900 --> 01:35:00,300
- He thinks I smile too much.
- He'd rather you frowned?

928
01:35:00,500 --> 01:35:03,300
With other men, yes.

929
01:35:06,100 --> 01:35:10,400
Nino is late. Amélie can only think
of two possible explanations.

930
01:35:10,600 --> 01:35:12,600
Firstly, that he didn't find the photo.

931
01:35:14,500 --> 01:35:16,800
Secondly, before he could assemble it,

932
01:35:17,000 --> 01:35:21,100
a gang of bank robbers took him hostage.

933
01:35:21,300 --> 01:35:23,200
The cops gave chase.

934
01:35:23,400 --> 01:35:25,100
They got away,

935
01:35:25,300 --> 01:35:27,900
but he caused a crash.

936
01:35:28,000 --> 01:35:30,100
When he came to,

937
01:35:30,300 --> 01:35:31,900
he'd lost his memory,

938
01:35:33,800 --> 01:35:35,600
An ex-con picked him up,

939
01:35:35,700 --> 01:35:39,800
mistook him for a fugitive,
and shipped him to Istanbul.

940
01:35:40,900 --> 01:35:43,000
He met some Afghan raiders,

941
01:35:43,200 --> 01:35:46,600
who took him to steal
some Russian warheads.

942
01:35:50,400 --> 01:35:54,100
But their truck hit a mine
at the border with Tajikistan.

943
01:35:54,300 --> 01:35:59,600
He survived, took to the hills,
and became a Mujaheddin.

944
01:35:59,900 --> 01:36:02,700
Amélie refuses to get upset for a guy

945
01:36:02,800 --> 01:36:07,200
who'll eat borscht all his life
in a hat like a tea cosy.

946
01:36:26,700 --> 01:36:28,800
- What can I get you?
- A coffee, please.

947
01:36:29,900 --> 01:36:31,700
A coffee.

948
01:36:53,900 --> 01:36:55,200
Here's your coffee.

949
01:36:56,800 --> 01:36:57,800
Thank you.

950
01:37:21,700 --> 01:37:23,900
[Today's menu]

951
01:37:32,900 --> 01:37:34,300
He's understood.

952
01:37:34,500 --> 01:37:37,500
He's going to put his teaspoon down,

953
01:37:39,100 --> 01:37:42,500
dip his finger in the sugar,

954
01:37:47,400 --> 01:37:50,000
turn around slowly,

955
01:37:50,200 --> 01:37:52,100
and speak to me.

956
01:37:57,800 --> 01:37:59,700
Excuse me.

957
01:38:01,400 --> 01:38:02,600
Is this you?

958
01:38:09,100 --> 01:38:10,300
Yes, it's you.

959
01:38:31,000 --> 01:38:33,000
I'll take that.

960
01:38:35,500 --> 01:38:37,100
Another coffee?

961
01:38:37,300 --> 01:38:39,300
- No, thanks. I'm fine.
- OK.

962
01:38:59,900 --> 01:39:04,200
So it's this man here,
the one with his hand up?

963
01:39:05,600 --> 01:39:06,600
Yes.

964
01:39:09,100 --> 01:39:11,800
Is she in love with him?

965
01:39:14,700 --> 01:39:15,700
Yes.

966
01:39:17,600 --> 01:39:20,900
I think it's time she took a real risk.

967
01:39:21,100 --> 01:39:25,400
She might just do that.
She's devising a stratagem.

968
01:39:25,600 --> 01:39:29,100
She's fond of stratagems.

969
01:39:31,400 --> 01:39:32,300
Yes.

970
01:39:34,100 --> 01:39:36,100
In fact, she's cowardly.

971
01:39:37,600 --> 01:39:40,800
That's why I can't capture her look.

972
01:39:42,900 --> 01:39:48,100
Dufayel's attempts to meddle are intolerable!

973
01:39:50,800 --> 01:39:56,500
If Amélie chooses to live in a dream

974
01:39:56,800 --> 01:40:00,800
and remain an introverted young woman,

975
01:40:01,100 --> 01:40:05,500
she has an absolute right to mess up her life!

976
01:40:40,500 --> 01:40:42,100
What are you doing, Mr. Dufayel?

977
01:40:44,600 --> 01:40:46,700
Tell me, Lucien.

978
01:40:46,800 --> 01:40:51,500
For deliveries,
do you keep keys to all the apartments?

979
01:41:04,200 --> 01:41:07,900
One of your booths is out of order.

980
01:41:10,100 --> 01:41:12,500
It seems to be jammed.

981
01:41:13,800 --> 01:41:16,000
Gare de I'Est ticket hall.

982
01:41:19,000 --> 01:41:21,200
- Buy a video, get one free.
- No, thanks.

983
01:41:28,100 --> 01:41:29,700
Sam?

984
01:41:30,800 --> 01:41:31,800
Samantha?

985
01:41:35,200 --> 01:41:36,200
Samantha?

986
01:41:41,100 --> 01:41:43,000
Can you stand in for me at...

987
01:42:05,500 --> 01:42:09,000
Photo booth, Gare de I'Est ticket hall,
Tuesday 5pm.

988
01:42:09,300 --> 01:42:12,400
[Can you stand in for me this afternoon?]

989
01:43:23,800 --> 01:43:25,000
Almost done.

990
01:43:30,300 --> 01:43:34,100
The mystery man wasn't a ghost
or a man scared of ageing,

991
01:43:34,400 --> 01:43:36,400
but simply the repairman,

992
01:43:36,400 --> 01:43:38,800
a normal guy doing his job.

993
01:43:41,000 --> 01:43:42,600
Sorry.

994
01:44:28,300 --> 01:44:31,500
He keeps spying on me!
It's making me sick.

995
01:44:31,700 --> 01:44:34,900
4:05: Blatant female conspiracy.

996
01:44:36,200 --> 01:44:39,500
Gosh, you're tense, Georgette!

997
01:44:40,700 --> 01:44:42,100
Good luck. You'll need it.

998
01:44:47,700 --> 01:44:52,000
Excuse me. Did you put this in my pocket?

999
01:44:52,300 --> 01:44:55,600
- Yes, but I'm not the one...
- I know. Where is she?

1000
01:44:55,700 --> 01:44:57,200
She's at her father's.

1001
01:44:57,300 --> 01:45:02,500
It's awkward. I'd like to speak to you, but...
I finish work at six.

1002
01:45:02,800 --> 01:45:04,600
- Can you come back?
- OK.

1003
01:45:05,800 --> 01:45:06,800
See you later.

1004
01:45:06,900 --> 01:45:10,400
4:08: Docking scheduled.

1005
01:45:42,300 --> 01:45:46,800
The blond guy in a camel coat.
He's very absent-minded, too.

1006
01:45:47,000 --> 01:45:48,700
How come?

1007
01:45:49,800 --> 01:45:52,100
He came back three times the same afternoon.

1008
01:45:53,600 --> 01:45:54,800
1:12:

1009
01:45:54,800 --> 01:45:56,100
Camel coat.

1010
01:45:56,200 --> 01:45:57,400
2:50:

1011
01:45:57,500 --> 01:45:59,200
Camel coat.

1012
01:45:59,400 --> 01:46:01,500
- 4:17: Camel coat.
- Stop it!

1013
01:46:02,700 --> 01:46:05,700
My rash has come back! Look, Suzanne!

1014
01:46:05,900 --> 01:46:09,400
My rash is back. He's driving me nuts.

1015
01:46:09,600 --> 01:46:11,700
Lay off!

1016
01:46:11,800 --> 01:46:15,900
If she had a clear conscience,
she wouldn't be in such a state.

1017
01:46:16,200 --> 01:46:18,000
I've had it. I'm going home.

1018
01:46:18,200 --> 01:46:21,500
Psychos are the last straw!

1019
01:46:23,100 --> 01:46:25,000
Georgette! Georg...

1020
01:46:26,700 --> 01:46:29,300
Stop smothering them!
Women need to breathe.

1021
01:46:29,500 --> 01:46:32,700
You let them breathe,
they want a change of air.

1022
01:46:32,800 --> 01:46:34,600
Fresh air's healthy.

1023
01:46:34,800 --> 01:46:36,700
Shut it, failure!

1024
01:46:39,300 --> 01:46:41,000
Failed writer, failed life...

1025
01:46:41,000 --> 01:46:43,500
I love the word "fail".

1026
01:46:43,600 --> 01:46:45,600
Failure is human destiny.

1027
01:46:45,700 --> 01:46:47,200
It's gasbag time!

1028
01:46:47,400 --> 01:46:50,500
Failure teaches us that life is but a draft,

1029
01:46:50,700 --> 01:46:54,400
a long rehearsal for a show that will never play.

1030
01:46:55,900 --> 01:46:58,200
I bet he stole that.

1031
01:46:58,300 --> 01:47:00,700
I do have some original ideas,

1032
01:47:00,900 --> 01:47:06,100
but people always steal them.
A bit like your women.

1033
01:47:06,400 --> 01:47:08,400
Meaning?

1034
01:47:08,500 --> 01:47:11,600
Meaning you'd better get used to it.

1035
01:47:11,800 --> 01:47:14,200
Speak for yourself, you...

1036
01:47:14,300 --> 01:47:15,300
What?

1037
01:47:19,100 --> 01:47:22,100
- What's going on?
- Nothing much. Georgette went out.

1038
01:47:22,300 --> 01:47:23,900
Joseph got mad.

1039
01:47:24,100 --> 01:47:25,500
"Went out?"

1040
01:47:25,700 --> 01:47:30,700
Just like Gina. You know who's she's with?
The guy with the plastic bag.

1041
01:47:32,500 --> 01:47:34,800
I saw their little game.

1042
01:47:34,900 --> 01:47:37,200
The note in the coat pocket,

1043
01:47:37,300 --> 01:47:38,900
4:08.

1044
01:47:39,000 --> 01:47:42,800
Back he comes, and hey presto!
Out they go.

1045
01:47:46,900 --> 01:47:50,400
- I'm worried for Amélie because I like you.
- What do you mean?

1046
01:47:51,600 --> 01:47:55,200
By and large, the men I like
are mentally unsound.

1047
01:47:55,500 --> 01:47:58,400
- I'd like to know more about you.
- Ask me questions.

1048
01:48:01,300 --> 01:48:03,000
One swallow doesn't make...?

1049
01:48:04,100 --> 01:48:05,100
A swallow?

1050
01:48:06,800 --> 01:48:08,200
A summer.

1051
01:48:08,400 --> 01:48:09,700
And clothes...?

1052
01:48:09,800 --> 01:48:11,300
The man.

1053
01:48:11,400 --> 01:48:12,700
- A good cat deserves...?
- A rat.

1054
01:48:12,900 --> 01:48:14,400
- Patience...?
- Is a virtue.

1055
01:48:14,600 --> 01:48:16,100
- Rolling stone...?
- Gathers no moss.

1056
01:48:16,200 --> 01:48:18,400
- It's a sin...?
- To steal a pin.

1057
01:48:18,500 --> 01:48:20,400
Absence makes...?

1058
01:48:20,600 --> 01:48:22,000
The heart grow fonder.

1059
01:48:22,100 --> 01:48:24,000
- Not bad.
- You collect them?

1060
01:48:24,200 --> 01:48:28,300
In my family, we say a man
who knows his proverbs can't be all bad.

1061
01:48:33,100 --> 01:48:36,400
Pretty girl from the 5th floor, listen to this!

1062
01:48:36,600 --> 01:48:39,400
- Do you believe in miracles?
- Not today.

1063
01:48:40,900 --> 01:48:43,000
You're in for a surprise.

1064
01:48:43,100 --> 01:48:46,300
What if I told you that a team of climbers

1065
01:48:46,600 --> 01:48:50,400
on Mont Blanc had found

1066
01:48:50,500 --> 01:48:54,900
hard proof that my husband loved me?

1067
01:49:28,600 --> 01:49:30,600
Lucien, I need some yeast.

1068
01:49:30,700 --> 01:49:34,500
For Miss Amélie?
She's baking her famous plum cake?

1069
01:49:34,700 --> 01:49:37,600
Collignon! Go and get the yeast.

1070
01:50:31,800 --> 01:50:33,400
Amélie?

1071
01:50:33,500 --> 01:50:34,500
Amélie?

1072
01:50:41,900 --> 01:50:42,900
Amélie?

1073
01:51:04,800 --> 01:51:05,800
[I'll be back]

1074
01:51:36,900 --> 01:51:39,800
Go into the bedroom, Miss Poulain.

1075
01:51:56,000 --> 01:51:59,000
So, little Amélie,

1076
01:51:59,200 --> 01:52:03,100
your bones aren't made of glass.

1077
01:52:03,300 --> 01:52:06,300
You can take life's knocks.

1078
01:52:06,500 --> 01:52:10,600
If you let this chance go by,

1079
01:52:10,900 --> 01:52:17,300
eventually your heart will become

1080
01:52:17,500 --> 01:52:23,300
as dry and brittle as my skeleton.

1081
01:52:25,300 --> 01:52:26,800
So...

1082
01:52:26,800 --> 01:52:29,800
Go and get him, for pete's sake!

1083
01:55:17,500 --> 01:55:23,100
[Without you, today's emotions
would be the scurf of yesterday's]

1084
01:56:19,700 --> 01:56:21,300
International airport.

1085
01:56:21,500 --> 01:56:26,300
September 28th 1997. It is exactly 11am.

1086
01:56:26,600 --> 01:56:29,100
At the funfair, near the ghost train,

1087
01:56:29,300 --> 01:56:32,300
the marshmallow twister is twisting.

1088
01:56:32,500 --> 01:56:34,700
Meanwhile, on a bench in Villette Square,

1089
01:56:34,800 --> 01:56:40,000
Félix Lerbier learns there are more links
in his brain than atoms in the universe.

1090
01:56:41,400 --> 01:56:42,500
Meanwhile,

1091
01:56:42,500 --> 01:56:46,000
at the Sacré Cœur,
the nuns are practising their backhand.

1092
01:56:46,300 --> 01:56:48,600
The temperature is 24°C,

1093
01:56:48,700 --> 01:56:50,500
humidity 70%,

1094
01:56:50,800 --> 01:56:53,900
atmospheric pressure 999 millibars.

1095
