The Streetwalker (1976) - full transcript

Sigismond (Joe Dallesandro) is a man lost in an erotic haze which clouds his judgment. Early in the film, it is evident that the man has a physically passionate relationship with his wife, with whom he has a son. While on a business trip to Paris, he comes under the spell of a famous, beautiful prostitute (Sylvia Kristel) who resembles his wife. However, his efforts to monopolize her attention are not appreciated by her pimp, and he is severely beaten. When he gets a letter informing him of the death of his wife and son, he is totally devastated.

Thank you, Elie.
Thank you.

Elie, come here.
Don't do that.

You are both giver and gift.

I promise never to betray you.

And I promise you never to betray you.

You've hurt yourself.

I'll fix it.

It's because of the thorns.

It's alright.

I'll put on a bandage to it.

- Good morning, Feline.
- Good morning.



What rotten weather.

Where did you get that?

I've been knocking on the front door
but nobody answered.

Well, I know both of them are here,
they are in their rooms.

Just a second.

- Hello, Elie.
- Hello.

You're really growing. Look at that,
you are almost up to the ceiling.

Mr. Antwan is here,
he wants to talk to you.

Thank you, Feline.

Here I got something for you Elie.
Just look at all of these.

How's that huh?
I brought you enough to last all year.

How are you, Tony?

How are you?

Look at all the butterflies I have, daddy,
they are red and white and they fly.



I've had some new labels made up
and I wanted your opinion.

But I suppose I'd better begin.

What's wrong? That's a bad cough.

It's alright, I am just not very well.

Feline, bring me a cup
of very hot coffee with milk.

Here look at my butterflies.

They're not butterflies,
they are labels.

I want to play outside.

No, you stay here.

- Mom, please.
- Okay, you may play on the lawn.

Don't worry,
I won't come to the swimming pool.

This is uh... Monday...

So in 10 days you'll be back
and we can...

It shouldn't take any longer.

Good morning Sergine, don't come
near to me I am a sick man.

Oh you're exaggerating as usual.

Tony is sick and asked me
to step in for him

and see some clients
for the wine company.

I'll be on the road about a week.

So you are going
to be a traveling salesman.

Toulouse, Bordeaux, Agde... Paris.

Frangelico, the Battle of...

So you'll see all of those
wonderful things without me.

What do you mean you're coming to?

No I'll stay with Elie.

You don't measure Paris
just by its paintings.

There is much more to it than that.

For me it's Saint-Denis, Boulon.

Boulon, Boulon, where every pleasure
awaits the stroller after dark.

Where's Elie?

Out on the lawn.

That was really good coffee
even better than usual.

Thank you, sir.

Want some fruit?

I have some.

Fruit is good for you.

Darling, would you like some?

No I'll have another coffee. I don't
think you like your uncle, do you?

Finest vineyards of Provas
Antonin Pons Vineyard Company.

He's a pain.

Sergine.

He always arrives
at exactly the wrong moment.

Be careful, daddy.

You're going to Paris.

- Now you be good, you hear.
- Yeah.

- Elie.
- Goodbye.

Be good.

I'll write you in Paris.

Send the letters care of the
main post office.

Bye bye, daddy.

Do you hear the pussy go meow?

Come with me.

Get stuffed, you jerk.

There is something I want to buy.

But we're closed, its a little late.

How much is this uh...
How much is this telescope?

1000 francs.

This is a real antique you know,
it was made in 1824.

It's so powerful, you can see things
3 miles away.

She finally made a score.

You get to Saint-Denis.
You stop at the corner.

You make sure there aren't any
cops around, look in every direction.

Now the coat, get it off.

Show your body off.

Come on... that's it.

The leg...

The other...

Rest your foot on something.

Pull in your gut,
lift up your tits and breath.

All right, so far so good.

If a guy comes along, follow him.
No no, with your eyes.

Remember soliciting is illegal.

I'll be the client.

You watch me closely.

Oh by the way....

Do you cum easily?

- I don't cum.
- Never?

Never.

Have you decided yet?

Hey, you didn't pay for the drinks.

How much?

150 francs.

Did it go alright?

Oh, yes, fine.

You sure look good tonight,
all dressed up with no place to go.

You never know.

- Listen, do you want to do a double?
- Do what?

The two of us make it
with the same guy.

Oh... Sure if you want too.

What are you doing here?

Same thing as you.

How old are you?

I'd say old enough.
Are you jealous?

Jealous of what...

Peddle your way somewhere else.

This is my spot.

Rough night eh...

A couple of specials.

- 15 francs.
- OK.

- Let's go.
- How much?

200 francs.

Agreed.

They look like two love birds.

As if they have honeymoon
that would befit George V.

50 francs.

Plus the service charge.

What's your name?

Diana.

My name is Diana.

All right I'm ready.

You're forgetting something.

First the money.

Counterfeit money.

Give me some silver.

Sure if you want.

I'm not going to let you
mess up my hairdo.

It costs more than you are paying me.

Want to go with me?

- How much?
- 200 francs.

All right you got yourself a deal.

It excites most men.

It always um...

- It's all there boss.
- Let's have a look.

There you are.

I'll be back in a minute.

Cigarette?

I don't smoke.

I suppose it is a bad habit smoking,
but I just adore jumping on a pipe.

I am very efficient, I adjust to every
shape and size, the bigger the better.

Yes we're a couple of fighters.

- Going down sir?
- Yes.

I called the post office for you, sir,
they are open late.

You can go by and get your letter
anytime this evening.

Excuse me, young man, Viala.
V-I-A-L-A.

- There you are.
- Much obliged.

Sigimond Pons.

1 franc.

Move on your keeping us waiting.

Give him a chance
to read the address.

He can do it over there.

Sender.
Feline.

She ran to the tower of the winds
and climbed the spiral stair case.

then jumped off.
She died immediately.

In paintings the people who are
being killed are often shown smiling.

But never the killers. See.

Hey girls there's meat on the hook.

- Get out of here.
- Go on beat it.

Bye.

Goodbye.

Contraceptive pills don't settle

all the matters.

Soap and towel
are our best recommendations.

A present for each of you.

Thank you, is it silver?

No, chrome plated but its better.

And remember you never kiss a client.
Remember.

Let go of it.

What are you doing?

What are you doing?
Give it back to me!

- Don't push me around!
- Don't push me!

Stop it! Dam it!

Stop it or you're all through here.

So... so I'm broken again.
You broke too.

You planning on leaving here?

No, where the hell would I go?

Can you pay me back
what you owe me.

- That is the best I can do.
- Thank you.

Buy me a coffee.
One black coffee.

Make it two.

Thank you.

- Hi.
- Hi.

A doll?

Is it for me?

For you.

To eat?

Yeah, to eat.

Today I feel like being generous.

It is Sunday morning.

Open up.

Open that door.

Is that yours?

Come on out.

Take off your skirt.

Take it off!

Those are new, huh.
Falling in love again.

You are much to sentimental, my love.

Pretty fancy.

Who are they for?
Who?

I don't know.

Ah, you don't know.
You don't know.

Now you know.

Do you have a light?

How much?

- 200 francs.
- Let's go.

Oh yes, I think about my youth...

when I look at old photographs, and
I tell myself I'm looking in the mirror

I play my old records, from a time when
I was such a success at the Moulin Rouge.

I used to come on
to stage against a backdrop.

With a red spot light
focused right on my face...

And I sang.

What are you doing?

You must be out of your mind,
we want to hear her sing.

Who does he think he is?

What is he doing?

Damn door.

500 francs bills.

Good bye!

Diana!

It was a lovely sunny day...

Elie went near the swimming pool.

Maybe he wanted
to get his beach ball.

He fell into the deep water.

He was dead when we pulled him
out of the water.

His mother didn't say anything
She didn't cry.

She ran to the tower of the winds,
climbed the spiral stair case,

and jumped off.
She died immediately.

The doctor and the police arrived...

They said
that there was nothing to say.

I am so unhappy
to be the bearer of such news...

but there is no one else to do it.

Your devoted, Feline.

And yet I've never killed...

never hurt anyone,
never stolen or told many lies.

I don't recall ever having
harmed anybody.

Looking for some action?

You want the special honey?

A blowjob I mean.

No? I'm good at it.

Oh, look at the face he's pulling.

What's up?
You parked here, didn't you?

You want to play with yourself.

But that will cost you.

Go screw yourself!
Twisted turd.

He attacked me, the shit.
Get out of here you bird dick.

We should call the police.

You stupid bastard,
he really pissed me off.

Who do these freaks think
they are?
