:33:03
The whole day! And it was hard,
that damn crank.,.

:33:09
lf you got tired and slowed down a bit...
:33:12
Voom! Everything burned.
:33:19
So why don't you teach me?
:33:22
Now that there's no crank, it's easy.
:33:25
Because l don't want to.
This is no job for you.

:33:31
You're like a slave and always alone.
:33:35
You see a film 100 times.
There's nothing else to do.

:33:39
You talk to Garbo and Tyrone Power
like a loonybird.

:33:43
You work like a mule.
:33:45
Even holidays - Easter, Christmas.
:33:49
You only get Good Friday off.
:33:51
And if they hadn't stuck Christ
on a cross,

:33:54
we'd work then, too.
:33:57
So why don't you change jobs?
:34:07
Because l'm a nitwit.
:34:11
Who else around here could run
a projector? Nobody.

:34:16
Only an imbecile like me.
l never had any luck.

:34:23
l grew up during the war.
:34:27
And l'm still living in one.
:34:32
So, you want to be
a stick-in-the mud like me?

:34:37
No.
:34:39
Good for you! Toto!
l only tell you for your own good.

:34:45
You're cooped up here, suffocating
in the summer, freezing in the winter,

:34:50
breathing fumes,
and you earn chicken feed.

:34:55
But you like this job, don't you?
:34:58
Oh, it grows on you.
