At the height of it's glory, the French Foreign Legion
consisted of men considered, common ... the dregs of society.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
It was an army of mercenaries in the northern colonies
However, it's soldiers did not swear allegiance to France,
but only to the Legion and their peers.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
The Legion was not interested in the past of it's men.
Neither did it offer many hopes for the future.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
The Legionnaires fought to the last man standing.
Whatever the conflict. Whatever the cause.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
It was a hard way of getting a second chance in life.
MARSEILLE 1925
- Maxim?
-Rene, oh would you like a drink?
No, no, no let's have a talk. Heh?
You said midnight.
Not to worry, he'll be here.
My brother does not like
to be kept waiting.
It's disrespectful!
I promise you! Ten minutes.
That's all you get, huh?
Ladies.
Alan, what the hell do you think
you're doing?
-Meeting you.
-Aren't you supposed to be an hour ago.
Jeez, Alan, can't you just for once
help me out?
- Why do you have to make everything so difficult?
- Oh, Maxim you love it.
You don't get off the hook that easy.
Especially after what I've been
thru setting this up.
Galgani has sunk a lot of cash
into this deal.
We have an opportunity to make
some real money ...
... and maybe even hold onto it
for a change.
Hey Julot, how's the glass jaw?
Monsieur Galgani, this is
Alan Lefevre.
- You are late.
- Better late than never.
Who's this comedian? I thought
you managed a fighter.
Excuse me, Mr. Lefevre, ...
in the presence of ...
... the female gender.
Ladies.
Let's go to the bar.
Julot tells me you are someone
who can be trusted.
Please... bear with my bluntness
if I get straight to the point.
It's ok by me.
The gates have been good.
You are a big draw.
I'll give you a shot at Julot for ...
twice ... your normal purse.
Not bad!
There is just one minor stipulation.
Which is?
You take a dive in the second round.
I don't crash the canvas for anyone.
You're over your head.
Don't push your luck.
My brother, I love him dearly,
but he tends to jump the gun.
Let me help you comprehend
the situation.
You fight for me ...
Ren.
Hey Katrina.
Lucien.
You know I hate keeping people waiting.
Not now, Katrina. This is business.
Either you come now, or I leave by myself.
I think it would be a very wise decision
... Mr. Comedian.
You, come with me.
So, what's your answer, Big Shot?
I'll do it.
What was that all about?
How could you embarass me like that?
So that was the Romeo who
left you standing at the altar.
That shallow two-bit clown.
Why did you do this to me?
Especially after everything
I've done for you.
If it wasn't for me, ...
you'd still be just an immigrant ...
threading needles in that filthy shop.
You make me do these things
that hurt you.
Please.
Don't do this to us.
You know I love.
Half before the fight. The rest after.
Maxim.
Arrange it.
Hey, Lucien.
We have a deal.
What made him change his mind?
What can I tell you?
You're not the only Galgani
who's got the goods, heh?
It's a pitty everyone doesn't learn
as quickly as you do.
May I help you?
No.
Is it me? Or are you just stubborn?
Nooo!
It's just that I always take care of myself.
That's it.
You came. I knew you would.
Really?
Is that the way to welcome an old friend?
Friends?
