:16:02
If you wish, I'll give up
everything for you.
:16:05
Can you see yourself living
in a cottage on bread and love?
:16:09
I don't need much.
:16:11
In the big fireplace we could roast
the wild boar you'd kill in the hunt.
:16:17
We'd have a very ancient cook
:16:21
and a terribly young servant girl
to do the cleaning.
:16:25
Sounds like
a perfectly balanced bill.
:16:29
Now get dressed, darling.
:16:31
I will.
:16:33
But Walter will pay for this!
:16:37
Is this really the horn used in
Emilienne de Passy's famous number?
:16:41
She sounded like
the English queen herself.
:16:43
I found her
on the rue Mouffetard.
:16:45
You know, I'm a bit of an artiste myself
in my spare time.
:16:49
I sing, I dance.
:16:50
My friends all call me
Serpentine Casimir.
:16:55
Couldn't you give me a chance
at the Chinese Screen?
:16:58
I'd drop everything else in a flash.
Watch what I can do.
:17:20
I see.
:17:22
But is the Chinese Screen still mine?
:17:25
Zizi, help me.
:17:28
You've got a good job, Casimir.
Keep it.
:17:32
The theater isn't a living.
:17:34
Art, audiences, applause -
that's all very nice,
:17:38
but you're always at the mercy
of the man with the money.
:17:43
He twists your arm
whenever he pleases.
:17:47
Tighter!
:17:50
Slaves - that's what we are.
:17:53
If I had a son,
I'd make him a civil servant.
:17:57
Anything with a pension.
:17:59
Maybe, but the stage is in my blood.
From now on, I'm your man.
