Van Gogh Page #4

Theo's a lucky dog. Admirable woman!

Such a gentle look,

yet strong, almost violent.

In a positive sense, of course.

I venture to think

their marriage troubles you.

You fear it may affect

your close relations,

with your brother,

so fruitful for your work.

But I say Johanna's presence

will strengthen your ties.

Or, in fact, restore them

in a calmer, more ample situation.

I truly feel this.

It's what I wish

for the three of you.

I don't like mauve.

I wasn't wearing mauve.

Neither was the wall.

You paint me from behind.

You never look at me head-on.

Why not from the front?

Don't I inspire you?

I'm no goddess, but even so

Am I that purple lump

on a purple ground?

Look who's here!

We meet again!

We met in Arles.

I'm glad to see you.

- Stop, that's mine!

- Yours? Impossible.

It is. I just paid her for it.

All the more reason

She forgot her belt.

It's a small world.

When I heard about you,

I thought "it must be him".

- How's your illness?

- It's OK, Cathy.

- I'm glad.

- It's OK

How we talked!

I love talking to you.

You bored, here?

I can come and see you.

It's better in the country.

Am I still so stingy?

Give me another, that one's

It's wet. Want your shirt?

There

Want some help?

Leave the bottle.

It's Tokay.

But warm.

I put it in the spring,

but the heat

Here.

What've you been up to?

A 5-year Legion hitch.

4 really.

I was invalided out.

I tried to enlist in the Legion.

You wouldn't have lasted a week.

And if I'd signed up for 5 years?

They wouldn't have taken you.

Would they?

- You like bang-bangs.

- I like weapons. You scared?

Gives me a laugh.

Best thing for blowing

your brains out.

For cowards.

It depends

My captain,

Captain Longot,

surrounded by Germans,

with the dead around him,

knowing what they'd do to him,

he didn't hesitate!

What's going on?

You scared me.

Takes guts!

Coming?

Big-hearted.

Most whores rush the client.

I'm no whore.

Three lays at my age,

the monster's tired.

- How old are you?

- Guess.

- 40-45.

- 37.

- You burned yourself out.

- And how!

You put it all into your work,

left nothing for the rest.

The rest counts most!

You a philosopher, too?

Not at all, but

I've my way of talking.

- And Sonia, in Arles?

- You liked Sonia.

- Well?

- She went like that, phtt!

- You mean?

- She's dead.

I love being naked in the country.

Especially in summer,

the rain's warm, I roll in the grass.

It's terrific!

The leaves stick to the skin.

I didn't want to tell you in Arles

What?

Spit it out!

But that night when you

I got a bad name!

But I know how you really are.

And last year, remember?

When you scared me so?

I shouldn't have let you go
