i had a lecture to attend.

Sit down!

Of course, the money is missing.

But the cards are still there, those are the most important.

I think i only had 50 francs in it anyway.

No good deal for him.

Where did you find it?

- It was lying on the ground.

Since your address was in it,

i wanted to bring it myself,

instead of going to the police.

But i couldn't come earlier because of the lecture.

Come on!

I have no idea how to thank you.

- So it was good that i brought it.

I'm glad you even picked it up!

- I almost fell over it.

I was in a hurry,

so i walked behind the stands.

Of course.

Nobody saw him there.

You know when it happened?

No.

No.

A guy that started talking to me

and then i couldn't get rid of him anymore.

And he even looked good! Very gallant for a gigolo.

Too gallant, to be rude like that.

He was playing shy.

One of the kind,

that doesn't show his feelings towards his girlfriend,

but then again starts chatting with strangers.

With exactly the right amount of clumsiness

that is neccessary

in order to not get dumped immediately.

Those are the most dangerous.

As a gigolo or as a thief?

- Both. I heard about something like that once.

A guy once followed a friend of mine

and actually stole her wallet.

Just an average kind of guy.

Employee, with tie and all.

No, mine was very different.

It was neither the kind that takes drugs,

or has no money of his own...

Strange!

For 50 francs? That doesn't pay off.

He'd have to go somewhere else each time.

I'd rather go beg for money.

Why? Stealing is at least exiting.

Especially when you're hitting on someone while doing it.

You don't seem very angry.

It amuses me that he had such bad luck.

If i met him again, i'd laugh in his face.

I wouldn't. Such things make me furious.

Half past 6 already.

Do you know if there's a bus to Les Halles from here?

Better take the metro at St. Sulpice.

Where exactly do you want to go?

To a caf in Beaubourg,

"Dame Tartine". You know it?

No. You want to go to the "Dame Tartine"?

That's really strange. Imagine...

I don't know how to explain it to you.

When my thief was about to leave

and i didn't want to have his phone number,

he said, that he's be at "Dame Tartine" at 7.

A thief that asks for a date, strange!

Are you sure it was him?

Who else?

If it wasn't him, he'll be there.

Come with me then to make sure.

I don't want to disturb you.

You're not. I'm amused by such stories.

Ok, i'll come with you.

I'd be surprised to see him there.

It suits me well for anther reason aswell.

But i can't explain that now, maybe later.

You've heard enough secrets for now.

- That's fine with me aswell.

I can't tell you why at the moment.

Éric Rohmer

Jean Marie Maurice Schérer or Maurice Henri Joseph Schérer, known as Éric Rohmer (French: [eʁik ʁomɛʁ], 21 March 1920 – 11 January 2010), was a French film director, film critic, journalist, novelist, screenwriter, and teacher. Rohmer was the last of the post-World War II French New Wave directors to become established. He edited the influential film journal, Cahiers du cinéma, from 1957 to 1963, while most of his colleagues—among them Jean-Luc Godard and François Truffaut—were making the transition from film critics to filmmakers and gaining international attention. Rohmer gained international acclaim around 1969 when his film My Night at Maud's was nominated at the Academy Awards. He won the San Sebastián International Film Festival with Claire's Knee in 1971 and the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival for The Green Ray in 1986. Rohmer went on to receive the Venice Film Festival's Career Golden Lion in 2001. After Rohmer's death in 2010, his obituary in The Daily Telegraph described him as "the most durable filmmaker of the French New Wave", outlasting his peers and "still making movies the public wanted to see" late in his career. more…
