:08:04
We'd like to see it again
:08:10
l have a close-up of it
:08:12
lt was the roughly sculpted face...
:08:14
of a woman
whose calm smile startled them
:08:18
lt was on display in an open-air
museum on an Adriatic island
:08:22
They decided to see it at once
:08:24
They had identical outfits made
:08:33
They spent an hour by the statue
:08:36
They admired it silently
and said nothing till the next day
:08:40
Had they ever seen such a smile?
Never!
:08:44
And if they did?
They'd follow it
:08:47
They came home
filled with this new revelation
:08:51
Paris welcomed them
:08:59
You're a gentleman, Jim!
:09:09
- How's your book coming?
- Pretty well
:09:14
lt's rather autobiographical
:09:18
Our friendship plays a major role
:09:21
l'll read you some pages
:09:30
Jack and Julian were close
:09:32
Julian's last novel
had been a success
:09:35
He wrote about women...
:09:37
he'd known before meeting Jack
and before Lucienne
:09:40
Jack was proud of Julian...
like Don Quixote and Sancho Panza
:09:44
People even thought
they were a bit queer
:09:47
They always ate together...
:09:49
and chose the best cigars
for each other
:09:53
Beautiful!
:09:55
l'd like to translate it into German
:09:59
To the showers!
