The Other Love Page #6

---

Haven't you heard?

No, I haven't.

How are things in Monte Carlo?

The way they always are.

The wheels spin,

The pawnbroker

retires young,

And Mr. Clermont

always loses.

Why don't you come down

and bring me some luck?

I can have you there

in 95 minutes.

With a broken neck?

No, thank you.

I like it too much up here.

So do I.

I've never run into

such interesting

danger before.

The menace is

practically over.

I'll have you in the village

in a few minutes.

You shouldn't

drive so fast.

Are you warning me

not to speed?

I am.

I want this to last

as long as possible.

After all, speed isn't

necessarily movement.

It can be a kind of

philosophy, too.

A pattern for living.

A pattern for winning races.

Do you want me to drop you

at the garage?

Wither thou goest,

so shall I.

That would be hard

for both of us.

The garage is

around the corner.

Goodbye, Mr. Clermont.

You can't go away.

I haven't had time

to thank you

For such

a pleasant accident.

I can do better

over a dinner table.

I'm sorry.

I have an engagement.

- Lunch tomorrow?

- Engagement.

- Dinner?

- Engagement.

- Sounds terribly monotonous.

- It isn't.

This can't go on forever.

You're going to the race

of course.

- No.

- I'll get a box for you

at the race

And we'll have cocktails

and then dinner.

I'm sorry.

I'm not going to the race.

I don't blame you,

but I'll meet you

just the same.

We'll start at 6:00.

And then perhaps I can

convince you that snow

is for the cold in heart.

A warm heart

would live by the sea.

I prefer the snow.

Then I'll let

you convince me.

The garage is

around the corner.

Goodbye.

Don't forget. 6:
00.

- Karen.

- Hello, Celestine.

Who was that?

I like his proportions.

- Quite a measuring eye.

- I measure men quite

accurately from a distance.

I only start making mistakes

when they get close.

Who was he?

He almost ran into me

at the intersection

and cracked up his car.

What were you talking

about out there?

He wanted me to have

dinner with him.

- Are you?

- No, of course not.

- I would.

- Then you go in my place.

It might be

very instructive.

He also teaches philosophy.

- Where are you going now?

- I want to leave this film

to be developed

- and get some records.

You wanna come with me?

- No, darling,

I've got something much

more important to do here.

I'll meet you later,

though.

All right, meet me here

in a half-hour.

Fine.

You are quiet.

Am I?

I hadn't noticed.

Are you running away

from that man?

Well, if you want

to call it that.

Karen, don't be silly.

If you must run

away from him,

at least do it slowly.

Give him a chance

to catch up with you.

- Celestine,
