Amour Page #2
ANNE:
I’m tired.
GEORGES:
He puts away his shoes with the others and slips on his
slippers. Anne has gone into the bathroom.
5.
ANNE (O.S.)
Go ahead then. Mathilde told me
that in her building, the attic
apartment was burgled from the
loft. They just knocked a hole in
the wall, cut out all of the
valuable pictures from their frames
and disappeared without a trace.
He goes toward the kitchen.
GEORGES:
They must have been professionals.
As he passes in front of the bathroom, he stops and appears
to be looking at Anne.
GEORGES (CONT’D)
Did I tell you, you looked good
tonight?
SHORT PAUSE. THEN:
ANNE (O.S.)
(Flattered)
What’s got into you?
With a gentle LAUGH, Georges disappears into the kitchen,
where he turns on the lights. We hear him FIDDLING AROUND,
apparently getting a glass and some wine. After a short
PAUSE:
ANNE (CONT’D)
Weren’t those semiquavers in the
presto incredible? What staccato!
Don’t you agree?
Short PAUSE.
GEORGES (O.S.)
You’re proud of him, huh?
SCENE 7 - INT. BEDROOM - NIGHT
Georges wakes up. He looks with amazement beside him, then
raises his eyes. Anne is sitting upright, her back against
the headboard.
GEORGES (CONT’D)
Something wrong?
ANNE:
No.
6.
After a while, the RINGING of a kitchen egg-timer leads us to
the next scene.
SCENE 8 - INT. KITCHEN - DAY
The egg timer in the kitchen RINGS.
Georges is seated in front of the window, at a table which is
half set for breakfast. He has mobile phone raised to his ear
and a phone book opened in front of him. Anne is getting up
from the table. She goes toward the stove, turns off the gas,
takes the egg out of the pan with a spoon and runs it under
cold water. Like Georges, she is still in her robe.
GEORGES:
(on the phone)
What about next week? No but still,
it would make sense to get it done
soon. It might give people silly
ideas. And anyway, it’s too ugly to
look at... Wednesday? What time?
OK... Will you bring the paint with
you too, to paint over it? But at
least some primer...Yes, OK. Thank
you.
He hangs up.
GEORGES (CONT’D)
(to Anne)
You can depend on that guy.
ANNE:
(who comes back to the table with
the egg) I hope so. The last time,
he kept us waiting for ages, if you
remember.
GEORGES:
(laughs while acquiescing)
Yes, that’s true. (Reacting when
she places the egg in his egg cup)
Thanks. If I call a regular
professional, we’ll still be
waiting two months time.
ANNE:
(more to herself)
Really?
She has sat down. Looks straight ahead. He cracks open his
egg, puts salt on it, eats.
7.
GEORGES:
The Frodons waited three days when
their toilet was blocked. Not
exactly pleasant.
