Special Treatment Page #2

Synopsis: Drawing some intriguing parallels between the work of the prostitute and that of the psychiatrist-both have clients, both charge for sessions, both take on roles that serve the needs, psychological or otherwise, of those they serve, Jeanne Labrune's drama stars Isabelle Huppert and Bouli Lanners as, respectively, Alice, a disaffected call girl and Xavier, a shrink with a crumbling domestic situation. With sex more talked about than shown, the film is filled with pointed dialogue and double entendres

their word.

We set things up and

they don't show.

You often organize lectures?

- At least once a month.

Your treatment would

be useful here.

Unfortunately, the boss can't

see you yet. He's very busy.

He's got a lot of problems. But

he does expect you for dinner.

Dr. Ilich, I'll show

you the brewery.

In these tanks... the beer is

stored before bottling.

All that beer!

Please pour us a glass.

Is this beer?

- Yes, unpasteurized.

It's much better

than processed.

It's produced under

high pressure.

Who'd like to try?

- No, thank you.

I'd like to.

- Behave, son.

This is the best beer.

You want some?

Thanks, I don't drink.

In our country we consume 100

bottles of beer per head.

This year only half of that

amount

because the old c-c-crow

is on the wagon.

How long can you keep that up?

- For the rest of my life.

Lucky you.

Why do you have to wash

the filter now?

We're preparing for

filtration.

Sorry for passing

through like this.

What is this? - The largest beer

mug in the world.

We called the press. Photos of

this will circulate the world.

Maybe the Guinness Book

of Records. That was my idea.

Well done.

C-c-congratulations.

Thank you.

Let's take a souvenir photo.

Rade, please take a picture.

You'll be comfortable

in our villa.

Daddy, I'm starving. - Be

patient, you'll eat soon.

Come on, hurry up!

Thank God, we've arrived.

You say "God" all the time.

- And why shouldn't I?

Smart people know that

there is no God.

We where taught that

God exists.

After the II World War

there is no God.

Did they kill Him

during the war?

Welcome. Please come in.

Enjoy your meal, boss.

How is the soup?

- Delicious.

It's my recipe.

I didn't know whether

to order game or fish.

We could use a specialist

in your field.

No more, thank you.

Not even one glass?

- Not even one.

Our basic problem is:

We planned to open a

whiskey distillery.

The demand is very high.

We bought the newest machinery,

but our productivity is low.

Our workers drink.

If that was not the case,

wages would go up.

The town would prosper.

I have to chase my workers home

after the working hours.

They laugh at me and say:

Why change bars?

Why do you serve beer

on the streets?

It's an old tradition.

- Some tradition!

You used to win

Olympic medals.

What happened to

that tradition?

They've been selling it

like that for years.

If I abolish it I might

as well leave town.

Forgive me, I must

have more soup.

Here, boss.

You'd better watch it.

- Watch what?

It's bad for you to

eat so much.

But I love to eat, my friend.

I don't drink much,

I don't chase women and

I don't smoke.

Listen to my song and then
