STORYTELLER:
Once upon a time...there was a quiet little village...
in the French countryside...
whose people believed in "tranquilit".
[Doors bang shut]
Tranquility.
[Organ playing]
CONGREGATION SINGING: Come Holy Ghost
Creator come
From Thy bright heavenly throne
Come take possession of our souls
And make them all Thine own
Far from us drive our...
STORYTELLER:
If you lived in this village...you understood what was expected of you.
CONGREGATION SINGING: ...unto us bring
And through all...
STORYTELLER:
You knew yourplace in the scheme of things.
And if you happened to forget,
someone would help remind you.
[Snorts]
The season of Lent is upon us.
This is, of course, a time of abstinence.
Hopefully, also a time of reflection.
Above all, let this be for us a time...
PERE:
a time of sincere penitence.[Dog whimpers]
PERE:
It is a time to stand up and be counted.STORYTELLER:
In this village...if you saw something you weren't supposed to see...
you learned to look the other way.
PERE:
This is a time for Christ.When you reflect, he knows what you reflect on.
STORYTELLER:
If by chance...your hopes had been disappointed...
you learned never to ask for more.
PERE:
He knows for what you must be forgiven.[Wind whistling]
So in this Year of Our Lord, 1959, things...
STORYTELLER:
So, through good times and bad...famine and feast...
the villagers held fast to their traditions.
Until...
one winter day...
one winter day...
a sly wind blew in from the north.
PERE:
Where will we find truth?[Wind blowing]
Where do we start looking?
[Wind whistling]
PERE:
Where will we find truth?We will find it...
[Door closes]
Who the hell are you?
Oh, uh...
We're here about the patisserie.
We'd like to rent it...
VIANNE:

Well, we lived in Andalucia for a while.
Let me see. Before that, Vienna...
and before that...
-Athens. -Pavia.
ANOUK:
Pantoufle hated it there.Pantoufle is her kangaroo.
But he can't hop.
Bad leg. War injury, huh?
I'll expect you to keep it in good condition.
[Door slams]
[Vianne chuckles]
[Humming]
ANOUK:
What a nice town this is.Don't you think so, Mama?
It's a lovely town.
Mama, Pantoufle wants to know how long we can stay.
VIANNE:
Oh, tell Pantoufle not to worry.[Whispering]
Time for bed. What story tonight?
Pantoufle wants to hear about
grandmere and grandpere.
Not tonight, Anouska.
ANOUK:
You always say that.Tell about grandmere and grandpere.
Not tonight.
How about the princess and the pirates?

I am the Comte de Reynaud at your service.
ANOUK:

VIANNE:
To what do we owe the honor of your visit?Well, as mayor of Lansquenet...
I want to welcome you to the community...
and to invite you to worship
with us at mass on Sunday.
That's very kind of you, but
actually we don't attend.
VIANNE:
We're glad to be so near the church, though.We'll enjoy singing with the bells.
The bells are not intended
as an entertainment, Madame.
They are a solemn call to worship for...

Mademoiselle. I've never been married...
but feel free to call me Vianne.
