Camille Claudel Page #2

---

"as the steel touched my neck..."

"my body shivered and

a muffled cry escaped my lips."

"The executioner's hand trembled."

"'Sir,' he said to me..."

"'Have I hurt you?'"

"These hangmen have soft hearts."

You seem to love Victor Hugo,

Giganti.

He's the greatest man alive.

He's all I have...

Now I have you, too.

Rodin could not

have been indifferent.

The Dean of

the School of Fine Arts...

...thought you were already

Rodin's pupil.

What have I done

to deserve such a daughter!

Always conniving...

...to steal her father's money.

Don't you interfere.

That tramp!

If my first baby hadn't died...

...I'd never have

given birth to her!

She behaves like a boy!

She hurts me...

...sets her father against me.

He'll make us all suffer

for her filth.

Madame, get dressed, please.

It doesn't help

to shut yourself away.

She should be shut away!

Louise Athanaise! Come on out!

This is ridiculous!

Good morning, Monsieur Limet.

No luck?

Thank Monsieur Rodin for me.

Jessie, read this!

Read it out loud!

"Young ladies. I am beginning

a major piece of work."

"I need apprentices. Tomorrow, 8:00 a.m.

My studio. Rodin."

Watch your step!

Morhardt!

Where's our friend?

Bad timing.

Monsieur Rodin isn't here.

He's very busy these days.

Rodin goes too far.

Did you see those two young girls?

On the "Gates of Hell" there'll be

small statues of the damned.

Rodin has great ideas.

With a little help from Dante

and his "Divine Comedy."

He doesn't need help.

He's been commissioned.

The boss will accomplish

what he wants. He always does.

He's like a father to me.

You certainly love him.

Marcel, you needn't have

written on the cloth!

Miss Claudel did it.

Foolishness!

Remove that scroll!

Put the two Adams back together.

Move out of the way!

Young lady...

Stand between them again.

Nice...

...very nice...

Make me another Adam

for tomorrow.

Thank you, all.

How was Victor Hugo's

first sitting?

I love him. I'd like to sculpt him

nude. Like the God that he is!

Hey girls! Got a lover?

They're not telling.

Stuck-up!

She's a proper young lady.

She's cultured,

she's saving it...

Tell me,

when do we see Rodin work?

He's busy thinking.

He'd better watch out!

Women are less important

than official orders.

An artist is an artist.

The truth is,

he has no ideas.

You know that Rodin is busy

arguing with the Minister.

You know that he's the biggest

lecher since Victor Hugo.

I'm sure it will be beautiful,

Giganti.

You'll be almost crouching,

with your head down...

...leaning on your knee.

And your arms...

your arms will hang down...

...hugging one leg.

I'm sure it will be powerful.

Powerful...

...and tender...
