Camille Claudel Page #3

---

...just like you.

Taking a break?

It has to dry.

Want company?

All the screens are taken.

You wouldn't know what to do.

Come on, honey!

Show me what you've got!

Let go!

You're asking for it!

I'll get you. Girls don't

play coy for long, here.

You can play without me.

Leave her alone.

You! You'd better

stick to plastering!

Don't you get it?

You're like plaster...

...dull and sticky!

Where are you going?

Back to my real work!

Forget it.

You don't stand a chance!

What's wrong? Trouble?

I just passed by

an angry young girl...

Wait for me in the office.

Return to your pose, Adele.

He doesn't like my marble foot.

He'll never sign it.

"A miracle is based

on three conditions:..."

"The credulity of all,

the good will of some..."

"And the tacit consent

of the principal creator."

He should have understood...

You take everything too much

to heart. Did you ask him?

He never speaks to me.

"He who is a legend in his own time,

is ruled by that legend."

"It may begin

in absolute innocence."

"But, to cover up flaws and..."

"...maintain the myth

of Divine Power..."

"...one has to employ

desperate measures."

We'll hire another...?

No! Still no word

from the Claudel girl?

No.

You are unbearable!

Why did you leave?

Such outrageous behavior!

Are you always so impulsive?

I have no time.

I didn't hire you as a joke.

I need people on the job,

day and night.

There's work to be done!

Where did you find that clay?

Under my feet.

In Paris, Monsieur.

You got the head

and neck right...

...but you avoided the body.

The human body is a world

that moves. It's life!

Never think in surfaces,

think in depths.

If you want to copy

the head of my Adam, look...

No, I didn't...

Where's your model?

Not a pro, I hope.

They're too soft, flabby...

Come and look...

Stand here, see...

You must search in the neck...

...you must force the muscles.

There...You never see me work,

so you think I do nothing.

Careful, you'll hurt him!

There you are.

You spare your model.

You're bold enough

to sculpt a nude man.

But you make him comfortable,

and you hide his body.

I'll show you

where I work in secret.

You grant that I'm bold,

at least.

You're intelligent and

you work from the heart.

But you go about it

the wrong way.

You want me to teach you?

I don't need lessons

or advice.

I work directly

with live subjects.

I accept, Miss Claudel.

Am I fired?

She's a pupil.

Oh, sure, another pupil...

Too bad!

Because I froze yesterday.

What'll we try?

I hope today

you have an idea, at least.

The longer you think,

the colder I get.

One can only see the profiles

in shadow.

That profile is no good. See?
