- Are you a gardener?

- No. A banker.

A lovely profession.

You're the lovely one.

Come and listen to some

Japanese music at my place.

I have a traditional wooden house.

A lovely garden.

The moonlight on the maples

is unforgettable.

I'd like to show you

how exquisite my country is.

You didn't bring your fianc.

Were you afraid I'd steal him?

I left him in a nightclub...

with a very prettyJapanese girl.

Aren't you jealous?

Certainly not.

Having a jealous husband is enough.

So this one is your lover?

Not yet.

Make love tonight on the tatami.

It's a full moon.

You'll see. You'll be happy.

Love doesn't interest me.

That's because you've never known it.

As for me...

I've dedicated my life to love.

I've made love over 33,000 times...

in 1 3 capitals.

New York, Paris, London...

Tokyo...

Rome, Berlin, Mexico City...

Copenhagen...

Delhi, Peking.

Rio, So Paulo, Bangkok.

that I touched the sky.

With him I reached satori.

The world of ecstasy.

Give up your Western sense of sin.

I have no sense of sin.

Mind you...

the sense of sin...

brought me great pleasure.

Before.

Here, have a drink.

Are you interested in fish?

I can take you fishing.

Come to my place.

I've got a net and a boat.

No way.

We all know what goes on

in your chalet.

You and my father and those girls.

Let me go!

Are you crazy?

Are you tired?

I'm never tired.

Our village called us ""the savages.''

We founded a club.

What kind of club?

A club whose aim was...

to get things out of men...

without ever giving them anything.

Well, well.

What became of the others?

- They got married.

- Like you.

- Like me.

- Then...

you haven't lived up

to the principles of your youth.

Oh, but I have.

Are you capable of loving?

What about you?

Is that the big boss's house?

It's pretty. I like it.

A very nice girl

will look after you...

while I'm with the president.

You're ashamed

to introduce me to him.

That's right. I am ashamed.

This is Sayuri.

You must take care of yourself.

I'm going to see a doctor in Paris.

- When?

- I'm flying tomorrow night.

Are you going alone?

You see?

The closer I get to death...

the more I love life.

Will you see Rambert in Paris?

No, I don't think so.

CAREFREE GI RLS' CLUB

You look worried.

I'm incapable of loving.

Perhaps you lack imagination.

Perhaps I lack generosity.

Hey, big boss.!

I'm Frdrique.

I'm sorry.

Come in.
