Quotes
-
Geneviève Emery : Guy, I love you. You smell of gasoline.
Guy Foucher : It's just another perfume.
Geneviève Emery : Oh, Guy, I love you. A customer - I must run. I'll see you in front of the theater at eight.
-
Guy Foucher : I got drafted this morning, and I'll be away for two years. We'll talk about marriage later. With the war in Algeria, it will be a long time before I can come back.
Geneviève Emery : But I would never be able to live without you!
-
Guy Foucher : We'll have children.
Geneviève Emery : I'll name our daughter Francoise.
Guy Foucher : And if it is a boy?
Geneviève Emery : It will be a girl. We've always had girls in the family.
Guy Foucher : One o'clock.
Geneviève Emery : If Mother's not asleep, what a scene there will be.
-
Guy Foucher : Are you in mourning?
Geneviève Emery : Mother died last autumn.
Guy Foucher : What did you name her?
Geneviève Emery : Francoise. She's a lot like you. Do you want to see her?
Guy Foucher : I think you can go.
-
Madeleine : Poor Elise. There will be nothing left of her.
Guy Foucher : It's the opposite. She will be part of everything we do.
Madeleine : Are you happy?
Guy Foucher : Very happy, and it's all thanks to you, Madeleine.
-
Aunt Élise : You seem very nervous.
Guy Foucher : I'm going out.
Aunt Élise : Alone?
Guy Foucher : None of your business.
Aunt Élise : It is.
Guy Foucher : With a girl.
Aunt Élise : Do you love her?
Guy Foucher : It could be.
Aunt Élise : Tell me the truth.
Guy Foucher : I love her.
-
Geneviève Emery : You know, I think she suspects something.
Guy Foucher : Who?
Geneviève Emery : Mother. When I said I was going to the theater with Cecile, she gave me a funny look.
Guy Foucher : What kind of look?
Geneviève Emery : Like this. She knows Cecile hates shows, and I am a bad liar.
Guy Foucher : That's what you say.
Geneviève Emery : I assure you I am.
-
Guy Foucher : Why didn't you tell me?
Aunt Élise : I didn't want to say anything. I thought you knew. You didn't suspect.
Guy Foucher : Of course, over the last few months. Her letters were not the same. She didn't answer my questions. She was writing without conviction. But marrying another man! I thought she was mad at me.
-
Guy Foucher : You have no family. Don't you want to stay here?
Madeleine : What will I do?
Guy Foucher : You'll help me. I'll be lonely.
Madeleine : You don't need anyone.
Guy Foucher : I need you, Madeleine.
Madeleine : Why don't you just say you don't like being alone? I don't see what I could do. I have no influence over you.
Guy Foucher : That's not true.
Madeleine : I don't like what you've become. You hang around with nothing to do. You're sad and bitter.
-
Geneviève Emery : We'll sell umbrellas. No, not umbrellas. We'll sell the shop.
Guy Foucher : We'll buy a gas station.
Geneviève Emery : Why? What an idea!
Guy Foucher : All white, with an office. You'll see.
Geneviève Emery : You'll smell like gasoline all day. It'll be heaven!
-
Guy Foucher : What's wrong? Are you crying?
Aunt Élise : Don't be silly.
Guy Foucher : Yes, you are. Is it because you're all alone?
Aunt Élise : I'm not alone. I have my books. Madeline's coming to give me a shot. She'll keep me company.
Guy Foucher : What is it, then?
Aunt Élise : Maybe happiness makes me sad.

Guy Foucher : I think you can go now.

Guy Foucher : Yes, very well.
-
Geneviève Emery : I should wear makeup, don't you think?
Guy Foucher : No, you're lovely as you are.

Guy Foucher : Jenny...
Jenny : [naked in a hotel bed] You can call me Geneviève if you'd like.
Guy Foucher : Geneviève...
Jenny : You're going to say I reminding you of someone.
Guy Foucher : Good-bye, Jenny.
Jenny : Come back anytime.
