Phoenix Page #2

You can't just wander around at night.

There are all sorts out.

I don't go out without a revolver.

I can't always look after you,

I have to go to Poland soon.

- I might be there a while.

- How long?

A week, two, maybe longer.

Did you give thought

to Haifa or Tel Aviv?

In Tel Aviv there's a Jewish choir

run by Vera Stroux.

- It might suit you.

- What would I do in a Jewish choir?

- I'm not a Jew.

- You are, like it or not.

They tried to kill you

because you're a Jew.

We can't remain here, Nelly.

Johnny betrayed you.

You were arrested on October 6, 1944.

Johnny was arrested on October 4, 1944.

He was interrogated and released

just after your arrest on October 6.

He wasn't put in prison.

No punishment. Indeed...

he was allowed to play again...

now he wants your money.

Did you see him?

- Yes.

- When?

Two months ago.

Did you speak to him?

I don't speak to traitors.

Shop window mannequin.

Wonderful! Wonderful!

We have beer.

We have cold beer.

We have whisky.

We have champagne.

And now our delightful Vicky and Lola

will sing

the one and only Cole Porter's...

"Night and Day".

Night and day.

Night and day I think of you

Countless weeks have passed

And I just pined for you

From the dreams I have at night

I awake each morning once again

And have your sweet image

Before me still

Wherever I am, I am with you

I often hear your familiar steps

Stop at my door

And the twinkle of your eyes

Lights the dark hours...

of my loneliness

Vivaciously

Night and day,

I feel that beloved hand

That you softly gave me

As we stood by the meadow-side

Of my hopes you the mirage

That vanishes on my approach -

My pining stays unassuaged

Night and day

Like the rain...

Johnny!

When the autumn mists fall leaden

As the wind, it screeching, cries

Clouds, grey and ragged, fly by

My heart beats hasty paces

Beats and finds no rest at all

Like a wailing wind it whispers

Just you, you, you

Nelly?

Everything okay?

Yes.

One second, I'll be right back.

I got you a revolver, too.

Know how to use it?

Sometimes just showing it is enough.

I'm looking for Johnny.

Did he gave you those black eyes?

He works here.

There's no Johnny here.

- But I saw him.

- I don't know a Johnny. Do you?

Johnny, you swine,

your pockets are empty

But the cellar is full,

so really there's plenty

The world is a quay

all covered with girls

The sailors go cross-eyed

when they give them a twirl

- How about a coffee?

- Or two?

- Coming up.

- Are you Johnny?

- The doll here wants work.

- But don't hit her again.

Johannes, get a move on!

He's the one to speak to, Miss.

When you're off for a stroll

Sunshine doesn't do it
