Hello.

Do you have a place to go?

Yes.

Come on.

It's nice here.

Are you an artist?

Yes a little.

Come this way.

Dearest Johan.

Contrarily to what I told you,

I have to begin

the film without you.

L've got a camera during

the month of August,

and my crew

is getting impatient to shoot.

I can't wait any more.

Since your arrest I'm bored.

Paris is very hot.

I have been cruising

in the Tuileries Garden

to find a replacement for you,

but it's not easy.

Your arrest changed a lot of things;

I saw your lawyer,

he looks rather optimistic.

I kiss you.

I love you. Philippe.

Are you OK?

Do you like being f***ed?

Of course; didn 't you see?

Especially by big c*cks.

What are you doing in life?

Nothing important.

What's your name?

Philippe and you?

Mikel.

And you, what are you doing in life?

L'm in the film-business.

Yes? In front or behind the camera?

Behind.

Watch out for the cat.

See you.

Ok, by.

The first scene:

A foggy morning,

frozen rails,

an imaginary train,

the silhouette of Johan dancing.

Motor, action!

There's too much smoke.

Who made all this smoke?

It's the assistant again.

I don't see anybody.

Cue the dancer.

Where is the dancer.

I can't see the dancer.

I can't see anything.

Perhaps he's out of focus.

Stop shooting,

we're wasting footage.

Let's start again.

Here he is.

He's completely blurred.

Let's start again.

Here he is.

Is that one your dancer, Philippe?

He is good.

Where did you find him?

He is a professional dancer.

Is he?

He was much better in the smoke.

How was it?

Have I got the part?

How was it? Have I got the part?

You know, it's not my business;

I'm only your assistant,

but your actor!

So, how was it?

Do I get the part?

Good morning,

we've come to get the luggage.

Come in.

Shall we follow you?

No wait there for me.

Let's help her.

There is still all that?

It's high-class luggage.

He has good taste.

Watch out! Go under the wire.

Well, he owes you 950?

So, I'll pay you for the half?

Is a cheque OK?

Yes, give me a cheque.

Generally,

I don't accept cheques, but...

May I have a receipt?

Yes.

He'll give you the other half

when he comes out of jail.

When will he be out?

I don 't know;

he has not been judged yet.

It could be a long time.

Was he arrested here?

Yes, he was arrested here.

In the hotel?

Exactly.

I saw him handcuffed here.

Oh, did you?

Did the police

take anything from his room?

They looked through all his things,

all his gold jewellery.

Why did the y arrest him?

They didn't tell me.

Which was his room?

Room number 10, just upstairs.

What name do I write

on the cheque?

Girard.

Do I write my address on the back?

Yes please.

How did this boy behave here?

This boy.

Calm?

Very nice, no trouble.

It was a surprise.

Do you know why

he was sent to prison?

I don't.

Neither do I.

Nobody told me about it.

I just saw him handcuffed here.

He came handcuffed here?

What does he do for work?

He told me he was an actor.

Was he?

Had he already played in a film?

I don 't know;

a customer's private life

is none of my business.

He's playing in this film

but we'll ne ver see him.

He's playing in this film.

He often spoke about you.

Did he? What did he say?

He said:
"Which friend telephoned?"

Did you speak to him sometimes?

Yes, when he was sitting here.

It's a nice hotel;

one can talk things over.

I give you this, and tell him...

OK:

He'll pay you the other half later.

Fine, thank you very much.

Let's take all this.

We'll look inside later.

Your pen.

Oh, the painting!

Is it a film about emigrants?

Yes, it is.

Let's see what's inside.

There are some

very beautiful things.

Let's see the clothes.

He likes spangles very much.

It's strange because

it is not his style.

He made some costumes

for "Blue Angel".

If you find a photo of him,

let me have it.

I have no pictures of him.

I saw him wearing this costume.

Where?

In Saint Germain;

he looked good.

He likes leather and

military uniforms very much.

Is that him?

No.

He paints.

He's an artist.

Let's smoke a little, to relax.

Let's relax!

Where is your diamond ring?

I don't know.

Wonderful!

Do you think Pierre

can play the part of Johan?

Johan, the boy

who will replace you in the film

must be more

than just beautiful and a dancer.

What's the matter?

I don't want to.

You have never had sex

with a boy?

I only had sex with my twin.

His name is Johan. He's in jail.

Only with him?

That's odd. With your brother?

Yes and a twin.

Are you sad?

No.

And other boys

never attracted you?

Never... Only him.

Does he look like you?

Yes.

He is the same.

So, you have sex with yourself?

Yes.

I only like guys like me.

Dearest Johan,

We went together to your hotel

to fetch your things.

I paid the landlady for your debts.

She was not surprised

to see us with a camera.

You'll excuse our indiscretion,

but we looked a little

through your things.

I thought your clothes, your jewels

might help to reveal

something about you.

I discovered love letters.

I read some of them, very touching.

I was surprised it was your brother

who wrote them to you.

What time is it?

Ten past nine.

And what's happening here?

They are fags.

Are they? What are they doing?

You don't know what fags do?

In here?

Yes.

They are pissing?

No, fags are not pissing;

they are pretending to piss.
