Holy Motors Page #2

Synopsis: We see a few seconds of a black and white, silent art film. There is a dark movie theater filled with people watching this film. The camera mostly remains on the audience. Cut to a man sleeping on twin bed with a sleeping dog next to another empty twin bed with the same sheets. He gets up and looks out the window and we see he is next to an airport. One of the walls is covered in wallpaper with skinny bare trees. He puts his ear to the wall. There is a hole in the wall and he looks through it but we don't know if he can see anything. He has a metal instrument on the middle finger of his right hand. He sticks the instrument into the hole in the wall. His hand shakes a little and he turns the instrument. This allows him to open a door in the wall. The dog joins him as he steps through the door. There is a set of double doors and he steps through them. It seems as though he has stepped through the fire exit on the balcony of a movie theater, presumably the theatre that the film opened in.

And if there's no more beholder?

Are you OK, Mr Oscar?

Cline...

Some days one murder is not enough.

Monsieur!

Do you want dinner

before or after your next appointment?

Later, thank you.

Look how beautiful Paris is tonight!

He was greatly in love with you.

You don't hurt me.

You make me very happy.

You don't hurt...

Cline, stop the car, please!

Right now!

What's going on, Mr Oscar?

Where is he?

Hey, banker!

Now it is done.

Aim for the crotch!

Excuse me.

Let me through, please.

Mr Oscar...

Mr Oscar, come on. We'll be late.

Forgive him, there's been a mix-up.

Good evening, Mr Vogan.

Good evening, Mr Vogan.

I forbid you to lie!

You should've deliberately

not done it, Tho.

I am alone

and they are everybody.

I have a plan,

to go mad.

You're really here.

Don't say anything.

I think I feel better.

Don't tire yourself.

What does it matter if I'm tired now?

There's no harm in making an effort

when it's the very last.

Don't people always feel better

just before the end?

I've often heard that.

I was afraid you'd get tired of waiting.

I've been waiting for three days.

You had a fever.

I would've waited far longer.

I thought you would come

but I wasn't sure.

Such a long journey, La.

La...

You've been like an angel by my bed.

You know they talk about

the angel of death,

the most beautiful of all.

You've been like that.

As if you were waiting for me.

I wasn't waiting for your death.

I was waiting for this moment together.

This is not death, dear uncle.

Not for you, no.

Nothing makes us feel so alive

as to see others die.

That's the sensation of life,

the feeling that we remain.

What you have been to me!

What you did for me!

You did something once.

You know that.

You've been everything to me!

I would die myself not to lose you.

You won't lose me.

You'll keep me.

Life is better, La,

for in life there is love.

Death is good,

but there's no love.

So it is true?

That you made me rich?

That all I have is from you?

Don't speak of that.

It wasn't a happy decision.

I believe I ruined you instead!

He married me for my money, yes...

He was greatly in love with you.

Yes, but he wouldn't have married me

had I been poor.

I don't want to hurt you,

I just want you to understand.

I always understood.

You don't hurt me.

You make me very happy.

You wanted to look at life for yourself,

but you were not allowed to.

You were punished for your wish.

Yes, I've been punished.

But I don't want to know or think.

Just to be with you is enough for now.

And I want you to be happy,

not to think of anything sad.

Only to feel that I am near you

and that I love you.

Why should there be pain?
