1:24:00
are being methodically reduced
by the aristocrats.
1:24:04
Only yesterday, Deputy Chambris,
one of our best men...
1:24:07
was murdered in a duel, so called.
1:24:10
These things happen.
1:24:11
We want to appoint a new delegate
to succeed Chambris.
1:24:14
We need a young man.
As quick with his sword as his tongue.
1:24:18
Well?
1:24:23
l have no interest in politics, whatsoever.
1:24:26
Yet you were a friend of Marcus Brutus.
1:24:30
ln spite of his fancies,
not because of them.
1:24:32
You believe in liberty.
You know it's being strangled.
1:24:35
l also believe in laughter,
and l know the world is mad.
1:24:39
Good day, sir.
1:24:41
So, the de Crévy
and the de Maynes go unopposed.
1:24:45
- A pity.
- What was that?
1:24:49
What was what?
1:24:52
Those names that you said.
De Crévy and...
1:24:55
de Maynes?
1:24:56
- Noel de Maynes?
- Yes.
1:24:59
You mean that he sits in the assembly?
1:25:01
Naturally. He's a peer of the realm.
1:25:04
- You said you weren't hungry...
- Who said he wasn't hungry?
1:25:06
l've never been hungrier in my life!
Allow me to present...
1:25:09
my good friend Dubuque...
1:25:11
by profession a doctor,
by force of circumstance a deputy.
1:25:14
On second thought, l realize that l am
very much interested in politics...
1:25:19
and l would be proud to serve
the people of France in their hour of need.
1:25:23
Deputy Designate Moreau
of the National Assembly, if you please.
1:25:27
Deputy Dubuque,
would you join me in a meal?
1:25:42
The assembly will come to order!
1:25:53
Deputy du Rouge,
representing the Soissons district.
1:25:58
Present.
1:25:59
Deputy Chambris, from the Saint-Denis
district of the city of Paris.
