Four Adventures of Reinette and Mirabelle Page #2

Synopsis: Reinette and Mirabelle are two young girls. Reinette lives in the countryside, Mirabelle in Paris. They meet during a holiday of Mirabelle in the country, when Reinette helps her to repair the tube of her bicycle and shows her the beauties of nature and in particular the 'blue hour'. They like each other and decide to take a flat together in Paris, where they'll attend at the University. But isn't so easy to live together when the characters are so different: as Reinette is simple and enthusiastic, as Mirabelle is obscure and lazy.

not the other way round.

If you want,

we can go to bed now.

I'll wake you for the blue hour.

- OK?

- We'll never wake up.

Anyway, I don't hear alarms.

Leave it to me.

It's time.

Listen...

A toad...

That's a frog...

An owl...

What's that?

Dammit!

Hurry UP!

Don't get mad!

A minute's very short, you know.

See, it's gone away.

Yes, it's gone.

It's gone, but too late.

It's awful!

Stop, it doesn't matter.

You know, it was very impressive.

That wasn't real silence.

Darn!

I understood that.

Everybody always says

"I understand!"

OK, a ripe strawberry's better

than a green one,

but until you've tasted them,

you don't know.

What's the use...?

Don't cry.

I'm fed up.

Friends always ruin everything.

I thought you'd heard that blue hour

lots of times.

Yes, but I wanted you to hear it.

There'll be other times, OK...

Sure, tomorrow you'll be gone,

who knows where.

Listen, if you want, I'll stay.

OK?

Really?

I just have to phone.

Stop crying-

So let's go to bed.

You're silly.

Look at them.

The geese...

They always look

like they're talking business.

Not now!

They're taking a walk.

No, they're having a serious talk.

Hey, chickens!

They won't hurt me?

Chick, chick...

You scare them.

You have to be gentle with animals.

They don't know you yet.

Hey, rooster, come and eat!

Don't be so proud.

They don't come to you much.

What's in there?

Little goats...

- Look, they saw us.

- Can we visit 'em?

Hi, goats!

This is yucky!

What d'you expect?

They're adorable!

The brown ones eat first.

There are more of them.

Can't be a matter of color!

It is. If there were more white ones,

they'd eat first. Or black ones.

I've heard about pecking orders,

but not for goats.

It's to do with breeding

and superiority...

Maybe yours are special.

The brown ones eat first.

They win out. See...

Their horns have to be cut,

or they fight,

and get hurt.

See, the ones

with cut horns are fighters.

That old one there

can't get around anymore.

I'll feed her.

Here...

You've done a good job.

Don't bother her!

Shall I feed the ones at the back?

It's might makes right.

- We can't mess with that!

- But I'm here today!

See that one? We had to isolate her:

she was harming the others.

She's real mean.

It's true...

- That one?

- Yes.

See how strong she is?

What's her name?

Diane.

Call her!

She's sulking.

Stubborn.

Come here!

In fall, she blends with the trees...

You're pretty!

Come here.

No chance.

I'll go over.

- Not scared of horses?

- Don't worry.

If I were you...

Do what you want...

She's nice, but...

You're disturbing her privacy...

Careful!

Hey, sheep!

You used to horses?

I like them.

Éric Rohmer

Jean Marie Maurice Schérer or Maurice Henri Joseph Schérer, known as Éric Rohmer (French: [eʁik ʁomɛʁ], 21 March 1920 – 11 January 2010), was a French film director, film critic, journalist, novelist, screenwriter, and teacher. Rohmer was the last of the post-World War II French New Wave directors to become established. He edited the influential film journal, Cahiers du cinéma, from 1957 to 1963, while most of his colleagues—among them Jean-Luc Godard and François Truffaut—were making the transition from film critics to filmmakers and gaining international attention. Rohmer gained international acclaim around 1969 when his film My Night at Maud's was nominated at the Academy Awards. He won the San Sebastián International Film Festival with Claire's Knee in 1971 and the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival for The Green Ray in 1986. Rohmer went on to receive the Venice Film Festival's Career Golden Lion in 2001. After Rohmer's death in 2010, his obituary in The Daily Telegraph described him as "the most durable filmmaker of the French New Wave", outlasting his peers and "still making movies the public wanted to see" late in his career. more…
