Les Girls Page #2

-This is Sybil and this is Joy.

-hello.

-how are you?

We got to work fast. Let's grab

some lunch and come back and rehearse.

l was looking for a place to live

because l was on tour.

have you kids got room for Angele?

The flat isn't exactly elegant

but if Joy doesn't mind--

l never mind saving rent.

You're both dolls.

We got to grab some lunch.

Get back quickly.

1:
15 sharp.

-Come.

-You can change in there.

Girls, listen.

There's only one thing l have to insist on.

No complications.

But she's right.

l don't interfere with

my girls' private life...

but l don't let it

interfere with their work.

l have a few simple rules.

And l have to insist on them.

l call them my ''Three P's.''

The girls have to be prompt,

persistent and perfect.

Everyone's born with two legs.

Being a good dancer isn't good enough.

[Knocking on door]

-She's here.

-Open the door.

l've got it. You made it.

hello. Welcome to Liberty hall.

Oui. ls there a place

where l can put my little things?

Of course there is.

Just push something aside.

-l have a few little luggage.

-Bring them in.

Remove those things over there.

[ln French] hurry up.

lf you please.

Oui, madame.

-Quite a load of clothes you have.

-My mama makes them.

how sweet.

Does your mama make perfume, too?

These? lt's a little weakness of mine.

l love to collect perfume.

-You may help yourselves if you wish.

-Where were you working before?

l was last in a ballet called Le Coquerico.

All about chickens.

-Did you lay an egg?

-l do not understand.

Joy means, ''did you get fired?''

Oh, no. l quit.

Nobody could see me behind

all those feathers.

lt's important to be seen

if you want to get ahead.

You will. We saw you dance.

You are very kind.

-Not everyone has been kind to me.

-So l notice.

-That's old.

-Yes, but this isn't old.

That's my fiance, Pierre Ducros.

Fiance! You told Barry

you weren't engaged.

They'll never meet.

Pierre lives in La Porte.

What if he came to Paris

and to the theater?

Never. Pierre thinks

l'm studying to be a nurse.

he's so sweet. he gave me this watch.

lt cost his grandfather 100,000 francs.

-You know why?

-Why?

Listen.

[Bell tinkling]

So sweet.

[Whistling]

Blimey, there's dear old Dad.

Girls!

-hurry it up, kids. You got half an hour.

-Right.

he lives here?

Yes. And if he finds out you're engaged,

you're a canned frog.

how will he find out?

Surely neither of you...

We are friends and

one doesn't betray a friend, no?

No. One does not betray a friend.

l want you to know when the bell rings

we'll be in your corner, honey.

-Bring the soup.

-l will.

Do you want some bread?
