Jules et Jim Page #2

---

She moved hers away first.

Jules smiled happily...

as he beamed at the others.

Jules vanished for a month.

He saw Catherine alone...

but the two friends

met at the gymnasium.

Excellent.

Why don't you spend the evening

with Catherine and me?

I've talked about you so much...

Catherine is anxious

to know you better...

but not this one, Jim. Okay?

Hello, Mr. Jim.

Pronounce his name in English,

not French.

"Jeem" doesn't suit him.

Do you like our friend Thomas?

Can we go out with him?

Not bad. A moustache would help.

Now for a test in the street.

Excuse me, sir.

Do you have a match?

Thank you, sir.

She was proud

of her clever disguise.

The men were moved,

but didn't really understand why.

- Either it's raining or I'm dreaming!

- It might be both.

Then if it's raining,

let's go to the seashore.

We go tomorrow.

Let's have a race.

First one to the end of the bridge.

- You cheated.

- But I won.

Thomas always wins.

He speaks three languages,

he swims like a fish.

Can he stand on his hands?

You'll teach him.

Can you come to my flat tomorrow...

to help take my baggage

to the station?

She's a strange breed.

Her father was an aristocrat,

her mother wasn't.

He came from Burgundy.

Her mother was English.

That's why she's not average...

and she teaches everyone.

- Teaches what?

- Shakespeare.

Jim took it for granted

that she belonged to Jules.

Catherine wore that calm smile.

It was natural and said everything.

I'm almost ready.

I just have to put on my dress.

- Never put a hat on a bed.

- Do we take the bike?

And the bag, too?

- What are you doing?

- I want to burn lies.

Give me a match.

- Oh, my God!

- Don't move.

- Are you alright?

- Hand me the dress.

It's by the bed.

- Got a broom?

- It's under your nose.

Can you help me?

Thanks.

We'll take this, too.

What is it?

Vitriol, for the eyes of men who lie.

That bottle will break

and ruin your things.

Besides, you can buy Vitriol anywhere.

- Is that true?

- Yes.

But not this bottle.

I swore I'd only use this bottle.

It took them a while...

to find the house of their dreams

along the coast.

It was too big and isolated,

solemn, white, and empty.

- Sleep well?

- Very well.

- Is Jim awake?

- I don't know.

- How is everyone else?

- Everyone else is fine.

What a nice day.

Hurry, let's go to the beach.

Let's find the last signs

of civilization.

A piece of tire.

- Look, a bottle!

- An old shoe.

A can!

Watch out back there.

Look, Catherine.

Watch out, it's steep.

A postcard.

A piece of porcelain.

A cup and a cigarette butt.

- A pack of English cigarettes.

- I'm afraid we're lost, kids.

Do you think I should marry her?
