:54:00
Outwardly, I am.
:54:03
I must show a laughing face to the
world.
:54:06
And your friends?
:54:09
My friends?
:54:11
What friends?
:54:13
Who cares about me?
:54:16
I miss so much by being alone.
:54:18
If I had a goal in life, or
affection...
:54:21
if I'd found someone, I'd have
overcome every obstacle.
:54:26
You've no cause to complain.
:54:27
You think not?
:54:30
After all, you're free...
:54:32
Rich.
:54:33
Don't make fun of me.
:54:39
That's not the Prefect!
:54:41
It's Lieuvain, his right-hand man.
:54:45
The decorations are very poor,
don't you think?
:54:49
Obviously, the mayor was in
charge.
:54:52
He's no artistic genius.
:54:55
Gentlemen...
:54:58
first of all let me say...
:55:01
before talking...
:55:03
of the object of today's
gathering...
:55:06
and I'm sure these feelings...
:55:09
will be shared by you...
:55:12
allow me then...
:55:15
to pay tribute to the Public
Services...
:55:20
the Government...
:55:22
the Monarch...
:55:23
gentlemen, our Sovereign...
:55:26
I should stand back.
:55:27
Why?
:55:28
I could be seen.
:55:29
I'd have some explaining to do,
with my reputation...
:55:32
- You exaggerate!
- No, it really is appalling.
:55:37
From a certain point of view...
:55:39
it's quite justified.
:55:41
How?
:55:42
Don't you know of tormented
souls?
:55:44
They need dreams and action and
the purest of passion.
:55:49
And so we throw ourselves into
fancies...
:55:53
and madness.
