Can you give us a brief history
of the Venus, Mr. Bonnet?
:37:24
Have the police reported any progress yet?
:37:26
Did you turn down $1,000,000 for it?
:37:27
How did you learn about the robbery?
:37:30
l woke up in the night
with a sudden premonition.
:37:33
l thought it was something l'd eaten.
:37:35
But Mr. Grammont,
the director of the museum...
:37:38
he called and l believe
he's on his way here.
:37:40
Are you offering a reward
for the return of the Venus?
:37:43
No! What l mean to say is...
:37:45
that it seems so commercial
to think of money at a time like this.
:37:52
l just heard the news.
l can't believe my ears or my eyes.
:37:56
Absolutely fantastic!
To pull off a thing like that!
:37:59
l guarantee that the police
are investigating.
:38:01
The police? Man, where's your spirit?
lf we wait for the police...
:38:05
the Venus will be out of the country!
We'll never set eyes on it again.
:38:09
De Solnay, l'm still vitally interested
in the Cellini Venus, hot or cold.
:38:14
Do you know what l mean by that?
:38:16
Leland! Do you know what you're saying?
You're compounding a felony.
:38:21
Offering to become
a receiver of stolen goods.
:38:24
l'm an art lover.
:38:27
As a public service, l want to make
an independent inquiry to help the police.
:38:32
ls that a crime?
:38:33
And if you find it,
a step ahead of the police?
:38:36
You let me worry about that.
:38:38
-No, l'm an art dealer, not a fence.
-A fence?
:38:42
l'll do it entirely on my own.
All l need is an opening contact.
:38:47
-De Solnay? All right.
-Wait!
:38:52
There happens to be a man in Paris
at the moment...
:38:54
who specializes in matters of fine art.
:38:57
His name is.... No, Leland, please!
Think of what you're trying to do.
