Henry & June Page #3

That's why Pop's been buying it, | because of her.

How you doing? Bonjour.

And I should be grateful. | She's done it all for me.

Then she says, "I love you. "

And everything else vanishes.

In that moment, I lived eternities.

Why does she get angry, hurt, | jealous or cruel?

Why does she lie? | That I can't understand.

Maybe you're not asking | the right questions.

Oh, yeah? | What would you ask?

I'd asked:
| What makes her lies necessary?

What is she afraid of?

Who is she afraid of?

The kinds of things a woman would ask.

A woman?

Excuse me, pal. Could you spring | for a few francs? I'm short today.

Beat it!

I could give you some money | if you need it.

Thanks. That's swell of ya.

Careful.

See you, kid. | You can get home okay?

Yes, of course. I'll be fine.

Should be taxis all the time. | A lot of your swanky types come here.

See ya.

I'm getting interesting | shadowy images.

I like it.

You fall in love | with people's minds.

I'm afraid I could lose you | to Henry.

Don't be ridiculous.

He's so rough!

He calls me "kid. "

I hate him.

He's a parasite, an egoist.

Maybe it's just jealousy.

What are you jealous of?

His life seems | so full of pain and chaos.

He has someone who drives him | to pain and chaos.

Anais, meet my wife June.

Thanks for taking care of Henry.

He didn't describe you right.

You didn't, Henry.

The colors you've used!

It's as if you painted each room | for a different mood, Anais.

It's Anais.

Henry gets everything wrong.

Oh, sorry!

- Always merry and bright. | - You said it!

What's the title of your book | going to be?

I'm knocking around a couple.

I Sing the Equator | and Tropic of Cancer.

- I like Sing the Equator. | - No!

- Tropic of Cancer. | - Without question.

You are so absolutely right.

You see, Henry, I told you so.

So?

What do you think of her?

June? Not much.

You're afraid of her?

I just don't trust her. | Do you?

Trust her?

Of course not.

But you do think she's beautiful, | don't you?

No. That's the truth.

You have no aberrations...

no cruelty.

I don't want to be cruel.

I hate men who are afraid | of a woman's strength.

I'm not afraid of your strength! | I love it.

The stronger, the better.

Come here.

You don't hate me, do you?

Tell me some more truth.

Or some lies!

Whisper to me.

How would you lie to June...

if you were making love to her?

Making love to her?

Yes.

To her body.

Her voluptuous body.

She's so perverse, so naked.

Tell her that you love her.

I love you!

Hold tighter.

Possess her like a man.

I want to f*** her like a man.

- F*** her. | - I am.

I am f***ing her, P*ssy Willow.

Pretty good, Hugo.
