Les parapluies de Cherbourg

---

The thing is,

you have plenty of time:

You think you are in love:

But love is something different:

You do not just fall

in love with a face

that you've seen in the street:

He is a young man

whom I've met several times

and he loves me:

We want to get married:

You do not answer?

I am flabbergasted:

I went with him

to the theater last night:

Great!

So you lied to me and...

you admit it

without any shame:

There is no shame

in wanting to get married:

At your age, there is...

well, no...

You are a little girl,

very little:

You know nothing:

It's not with what you taught me

that I can manage:

When I married your Dad,

I knew nothing:

That's not something

to brag about:

The paint shop, please?

Next door:

How old is he?

20:

Obviously,

he hasn't been in the army:

He lives with his godmother,

the lady who raised him:

He only has me,

and you will see,

he is very handsome:

I will see nothing at all:

But Mother...

Go upstairs to the apartment:

It is time to fix lunch:

Genevive!

We are ruined!

You always exaggerate:

80,000 francs I have to pay

before the 15th:
Is that funny?

And if you don't pay?

They will seize our property:

I will get a job:

What sort of a job?

Anything:

Post Office or City Hall?

Why not?

You understand,

if I get married,

Guy and I will work,

and we will help you:

But, my little girl,

it is out of the question

for you to marry:

Take that away:

You're in my way:

Anyway,

what can he do?

Can he support you?

Raise children?

He's not rich:

We will live modestly,

and we won't have

children right away:

No, but one at least:

He is not the one

who will pay my taxes:

There isn't a penny left

in the till:

Sell your jewels:

My jewels, never!

What good are they?

You don't even look at them:
