Gangster Boss (1959) - full transcript
In Paris, scoundrel mates Paolo and Antoine Venturen hope to get rich quick by asking ransom fro rich Mr. Jumelin's preteen son Eric. Masquerading as Indians, the scamp's favorite game, does the trick. They soon learn such bratty rascal is more trouble then he's worth. The boy's a P.I. instead of paying, and it gets worse.
The
Big Chief
Why on Earth are you looking at me
like that?
I don't recognise your face.
You've seen it before.
We've worked together for 20 years.
Never, in 20 years,
I've never seen you look this worried.
Me, I look "worried?"
Yes. Perfectly.
The vitreous eye,
the soft lip,
the collapsed zygomatic...
"My collapsed zygomatic?"
Oh, no. Now, you're exaggerating.
What is this "zygomatic"?
A facial muscle.
"Facial?"
A muscle of the face,
if you prefer.
I only have to look at you
to see that you're getting yourself down.
I'm not getting myself down,
but the more I think about it...
You can't go through life
without thinking after all...
Listen to me Paolo. I saw
a movie about the abduction of children.
Every time,
the kidnappers give themselves away.
In real life,
It's different.
The leading role was played by
"Jame Stéouart"...
"James Stewart."
No, then it wasn't him.
I know what I mean...
I tell you I've got it all worked out,
nothing left to chance.
Like your little classified ad had
nothing left to chance:
"The shy, become chiefs"
"Explanatory note
C.O.D.."
It's a long time since
you brought that up.
I'll bring it up as much as I please.
Because the one that got treated as a swindler,
was me.
The one that got punched in the mouth,
was me.
You, you weren't there,
when he came,
the shy one that wanted to become a chief.
I'd set up another business.
Ah yes. Raising
snails in my room.
Another of your schemes.
I ruined myself to feed them,
and once they were good and big,
they set sail.
The whole building stuffed themselves on snails
for a week.
The whole place reeked of garlic from the
5th floor to the ground floor.
Enough to knock you down the stairs.
No. You see, Paolo,
you're very intelligent,
you went to school,
you know Latin, American,
the zygomatic and heaps of things.
You're the brain,
I'm only the arm.
But today,
the arm tells you no.
Farewell, Ali.
Hello, Omar.
Good...
Let's remain washers of cars,
since your ambition stops there.
Let's see, let's see.
It is pretty, isn't it?
But 2,5 millions...
Unfortunately,
we don't even have
250,000 francs in savings.
And the river passes
right behind?
Yes.
That must be a good corner,
for fishing.
Surely.
Only,
2,5 million francs...
Yes.
Say, Paolo...
Suppose...
Just suppose :
if we take the child,
you won't hurt him?
Hell,
you take me for a monster?
As for the father,
he's rich enough.
For him, 2,5 millions
isn't anything.
You think so?
The products of Jumelin Beauty,
the Jumelin brillantine,
creams, soaps...
"Jumelin toothpaste gives you
the smile of a cherub."
he doesn't even know
how many zeros he has to his account.
And his car?
I could make four cars out of
one like that.
And his posh hotel,
avenue Victor-Emmanuel,
his racing stable...
I planned it all meticulously,
I'd noted the comings and goings
of the child, of the parents, of the servants.
It's all in here.
We could've been rich.
You don't want to.
Too bad.
I didn't say
that I didn't want to,
I said that it could
be dangerous.
You are going to follow me,
you are going to obey me.
Yes, Paolo.
Everything will be fine.
You remember,
the car?
It's a 'Versailles'. I left it
just in front of the garage.
You can't miss it.
You'll take the key from the office,
below the picture.
It's the third one
from the left.
"Third one from the left."
Yes, Paolo.
Hello, Miss Rose.
Hello.
Don't you have your account?
Yes, yes.
Are't you coming back on Monday then?
No.
My friend and I
are thinking of changing profession.
We want to settle
to our account.
Goodbye, miss.
Goodbye.
You seem strange.
Me?
Why would I seem strange?
I am very normal.
Maybe it's you who's being ... strange.
Goodbye, miss.
Goodbye.
You scared me.
You take the Versailles.
I'll wait for you at the crossroads.
What...
Pardon me, sir.
It's nothing.
It happens to me too.
These cars all look alike.
Is yours black as well?
Blue gray,
a neutral colour...
These type of cars ...
the colour looks different when they're washed.
Good day sir.
Excuse me.
Ah, at last!
Well, you took your time.
Faster, faster. We must get to the Wood
before the youngster.
But the parents are going to be worried.
It's necessary that they are
worried.
If they aren't worried,
they won't pay.
Yes, that's true.
It'd be necessary nevertheless,
to reassure them.
Of course. We'll invite them
to dinner one evening.
Ah yes?
Say Paolo, what if the child
doesn't want to follow me?
I have the necessary.
What is it?
A narcotic.
It's chloroform.
"chloroform?"
Isn't that dangerous?
No. You pour some some
drops on your handkerchief
and you apply it to the
child's nose and they sleep.
Clueless! Hot-head!
"hot-head", to me?
That one then ...
Pay attention, good God.
I'm paying attention ...
"Clueless", that again ...
But "hot-head" ...
There?
Look!
Eric! Eric, enough!
You're going to hurt someone.
Boys of this age
have need of turbulent games.
It seems to me that we've
met before.
You always seem
so melancholic, so mysterious.
Me too, seems to me
I've met you before.
Eric?
Aren't you black Eagle?
If you want.
And you, who are you?
Subtle fox.
Delighted.
- Back!
You are a dirty Comanche.
I am an Iroquois.
Your tribe are enemies with mine.
- No, listen...
There you see, how it is
between Redskins.
You've broken something of mine,
Calm fox.
"Subtle!"
No, no. Listen...
Our tribes were enemies,
but propose to make the peace.
To bury the axe of war?
Yes, that's it.
We're going to "bury
the axe of war."
Good.
Take me to your wigwam.
Where's that?
- To your wigwam, your house.
We are going to smoke
the pipe of peace.
That's it, we'e going to smoke
the pipe of peace.
Do have you one?
- Yes.
Truly?
Nothing is truer, you'll see.
Come.
Already? The time passes
so quickly with you.
I have to leave you.
See you soon.
Maybe.
You're terrible,
I don't even know your name.
Eric?
Eric?
Eric!
Oh! A satyr!
- No, these are Indians.
Indians?
Hot chestnuts,
hot!
A tiny little cone sir?
- No, thank you.
If the big chief is willing
to enter the wigwam
of his brother black Eagle.
Hello, Antoine.
- Hello.
How's it going?
- It comes, it goes ...
What's that?
- It is my nephew.
He's come to stay
for a few days.
Oh that's better.
He frightened me!
I didn't know that
you had a nephew.
Me either.
Finally, I knew it...
Did he swallow his tongue?
- Don't you say hello?
Say hello to the lady.
Hello, pale face!
- Yes, yes...
You know,
chldren nowadays...
They have a little fun.
You pitched
your tent so high
to better
keep an eye on the valley?
Yes, that's it. It's to better
keep an eye the valley.
Stop here.
Go on.
Is this it, your wigwam?
Of Course,
compared to your wigwam,
this must seem
very small to you.
Oh lord, the chloroform!
I am going to fall.
Black Eagle,
what's the matter?
I don't know...
Antoine?
What's happening?
Antoine?
Where's the youngster?
- What youngster?
The Jumelin boy?
He was with you, wasn't he?
I don't know, I'm sleepy.
- I'm going to wake you up.
I'm going to wake you up.
- It's your narcotic...
Breathe well, breathe strong.
Get down from there.
- No!
Dad, there he is, over there!
I see him.
Little hooligan!
Is he yours?
- No.
Yes.
Finally, he is ours
without being ours.
Go and get him.
- How?
Go and get him.
- You want...
Go.
- Don't shoot, hey.
Attention.
Listen...
Let's go, let's go...
Raise your leg...
Come down from there.
- Come and get me.
Bunch of little brats!
You little rascal!
You're going
to pay me for the damages.
Don't get in a state, sir.
We are
both civilized people.
I'll make a complaint to the police.
We'll pay you.
Yes, we'll pay.
Let me know the estimate.
Why did you do that?
- I don't like windows.
Evidently...
It's a silly answer.
Who is this?
- This is my friend Paolo.
He seems like a window.
- No, no...
Come see what I bought you.
Here ...
here ...
here ...
What did you do with the car?
I abandoned it in an empty lot.
You didn't have any problems
With the youngster?
He doesn't realize anything.
- You kidnapped me.
No.
What an idea!
I like to be kidnapped.
More than lessons.
I'm on holiday.
In a sense, he's right.
You're not tying me up?
Don't talk crazy.
Here's the appetizer.
Do I eat like I do at home?
- Naturally.
One, two...
three.
Are they good?
- Luscious.
Not too much oil?
- No.
Not too many bones?
- Not too many.
Emjoy.
I'll prepare the next course.
What are you doing?
Do you drink wine, at home?
- Yes.
With water?
No. Pure.
Paolo, can you give
pure wine to a child?
I don't care. Let him drink water.
Especially as the water is excellent,
in this district,
much better
that in the 8th precinct.
Hang on.
Who is it?
- The police.
Already?
You must be mistaken.
We should flee through the window.
- Yes. It would be so funny!
What is it?
On behalf of Dad,
for the windows.
He asked for an estimate :
that makes 13 700 F.
"13 700 F"?
We didn't bombard
a cathedral.
If you don't pay up immediately,
Dad's going to make a complaint.
You will say
to your father that...
What is it that I should tell him?
You will tell him that we are going to pay
immediately and without delay.
Dirty toad!
It's nothing, it's nothing.
But it's nothing.
Quiet, I'm getting to it.
It's suprising,
how well that holds.
I am going to pull your head off.
- Yes, pull his head off.
The neighbors would complain.
I'm going to tell Dad.
- No, you're not going to tell him.
We're going to give you a gift.
What do you want?
- A fire engine.
A fire...
A fire engine?
Ah, a small car,
a toy?
Paolo, in your opinion,
how much does that cost?
1 300 F.
- Devil, devil...
With the big ladder,
or without the big ladder?
You're not funny.
- You hear, Paolo?
I'll find you on the warpath.
Be quiet!
13 700 and 1 300...
That makes 15 000,
all together.
Here it is.
Goodbye, my child,
and say hello to your father.
If you see anything else
that you'd like,
come and tell me and
I'll buy it for you.
You, you go...
Oh, my cutlets.
I'm afraid that they're overdone.
I don't want to embarrass you.
No, I don't want to embarrass you.
Give Antoine a cutlet right now.
Give a cutlet
to Antoine.
Do you hear?
Give Antoine a cutlet!
Still, there's nothing for me?
There must be discipline,
otherwise...
Hey well...
Do you see how he is?
He would rather choke himself than
give you even a little of your share.
Question of education.
Or a question of stomach.
Go get the bananas.
I'm going.
They don't feed this child.
Here are the bananas.
Paolo?
What's happening?
- We're being attacked.
Every man to his post!
Make him be quiet, Antoine.
- Shut up.
Listen, Fragile Fox...
"Subtle" Fox.
- Yes, if you like.
Calm down,
the attack is repulsed.
Black Eagle,
I go to my tent,
and you're going to keep watch.
As you say, yes...
I'll keep watch...
Black Eagle,
you're not keeping watch.
Keep watch,
so he gives us some peace.
What are you doing?
- I'm keeping watch.
Black Eagle, who is it that makes
the stars shine?
I don't know.
Black Eagle, what makes
the stars shine?
"What makes the stars shine?"
Say, Paolo, what makes
the stars shine?
The stars, what makes them shine?
I don't know.
You see, he doesn't know.
We'll look in the dictionary
tomorrow.
- No, immediately!
My God, what am I going
to do with you?
Is it finished, this comedy?
I need to sleep!
You don't speak, you hiss.
False brother.
You are called Eye of snake.
Eye of snake is a dirty type
Eye of snake is a dirty type
My God, he lies down there.
The Seine has its source
at the plateau of Langres.
7 times 7, 49.
Charlemagne was crowned
emperor of west
in the year 800...
Eye of snake is a dirty type
Eye of snake is a dirty type
Ouch!
- What is it. What's going on?
I ate too much.
- With me, that evens out.
I think I'm really ill.
What is it?
My God...
Paolo!
The child is sick.
No!
That's all we need.
He's not fooling.
He doesn't look good.
How do you feel?
- I want to be sick.
Where does it hurt?
- In my stomach.
From top to bottom
or bottom to top?
From right to left.
More on the right?
-Or more on the left?
On the left.
- On the left...
No, on the right.
It isn't more serious.
Paolo...
We need a doctor.
- It's not possible.
Why?
- In our situation...
We can't leave him
like that.
We're going to take care of
it by ourselves.
If I gave him a good drench?
- Maybe.
Wait...
All microbes
are in here.
- Ouch, I feel ill!
Stick out your tongue.
Inflamed tongue...
Pain to the right side.
Appendicitis...
Here is!
"Essential signs :
"violent pain
in the right iliac pit,
"to the point of Mr Burney,
"on the right of the umbilicus
and of the crest of the hipbone.
"Nausea, elevated temperature,
fast pulse,
"frequent nervous disorders
of the child..."
It's good, this.
- You first.
Me?
- Yes.
No...
- Yes.
It's good.
There. Who's this for?
- You again.
Ah, no.
- Yes.
Ah good?
If.
For me.
"Replace the ice..."
The treatment is very simple.
Especially, no purgative.
"No purgative."
Ice on the stomach,
it says.
If it says so ...
- What are you waiting for?
Ice!
Ice...
I'm going to look for it
immediately.
All the cafés will be closed.
Put a compresses of cold water
on him, while he's waiting.
It wasn't true.
I'm not sick!
It wasn't true.
I'm not sick!
Excuse me, do you have
any ice please?
Certainly, vanilla, chocolate,
raspberry, mocha?
No, appendicitis.
It's for a patient.
Pardon me,
I couldn't know.
Go along on the right to the bar,
it might be open.
Thank you sir,
and good luck with the bread.
What is it?
What do you want?
I'd like some ice.
It's for a patient.
Oh!
What's wrong?
The child has a pain
to the right side.
I thought that he had appendicitis.
I wanted to give him a purgative...
Oh, purgative...
I was told that it was necessary
to have ice.
I'd like a piece of ice.
Like that?
A bit bigger.
How much is that?
200 F.
Here.
Hey, hey!
There's no need to knock so hard.
Maurice?
Maurice?
- Eh?
I saw an enormous
block of ice
that went down the staircase.
Yes, my love, a block of ice,
from the North pole.
The floe, the icebergs...
Enough.
Enough, take your drops,
my dear.
It's all I could find.
It's still too much.
How is he?
- He will explain it to you himself.
There, repeat what
you told me a little while ago.
It wasn't true.
I'm not sick.
Hey well, that's a relief,
because...
What?
It wasn't true?
You'd deserve it
if I gave you a slap.
Let's smoke the pipe
of the peace.
You lie down now.
Black Eagle,
you are kind,
but Eye of snake,
is a traitor.
Say, what makes one sneeze?
"What makes one sneeze?"
If I tell you why
I'm going to sneeze ...
No.
What is it?
What are you laughing at?
Idiot!
Oh yes, you're so great.
Listen to me. Let's take stock:
13,700 F, for the windows,
1,300 F for the fire engine
with the big ladder,
3 sardines with oil,
2 cutlets,
10 kg of ice,
in addition to that a cold,
maybe the same Asian flu,
that turned the house upside down
and a neighbor who wants
to make a complaint.
It's going well, your idea.
Good grief...
Have a drink,
it'll calm you.
If you give me wine tomorrow,
I'll tell you a secret.
No. Do you hear?
No wine.
And no gestures.
Paolo shouts.
Black Eagle?
Black Eagle?
- Who's that?
Hey?
I scalped
Eye of snake at dawn.
What?
I scalped
Eye of snake at dawn.
You "scalped Eye of snake
at dawn?"
Yes.
Very well.
This child is terrifying.
He scalped Eye of snake.
"Eye of snake?"
But that's Paolo.
Paolo? Paolo?
Did you sleep well?
Yes, very well.
You didn't have any bad dreams?
No.
That makes me very happy.
I'm going to tell you something,
but don't be angry...
That wouldn't do any good.
Especially as it quite suits you.
And as it soon grows back.
What?
What's this...
Dirty vermin!
Don't hurt him,
we have to return him.
Let me deal with him,
I can be harsh.
Why did you cut
Paolo's hair?
Look at how little he has left now.
Aren't you ashamed of yourself?
You deserve a slap.
Here.
And another one. Here!
I'm even go to punch you.
Don't hit him so hard,
you're going to knock him out.
It's a good thing
you stopped me.
This kid, he drives you crazy.
We need to finish writing the letter!
What "letter?"
- The letter to his parents.
I'd completely forgotten.
I'll read it back:
"Sir ...."
It's a little dry.
If I put "dear Sir?"
Can I have the string?
- No.
Why do you always have to
antagonize him?
Let him have the string.
Take it, my child.
"Sir, your child
is in our possession..."
Possession, with two "s?"
- Evidently.
That makes four of them then.
Four "s" for only one word,
it's a lot, that.
Go on, go on.
You should trim what remains.
That'd even it up.
"We present to you the
following conditions:
"you will pay us
2,5 millions..."
No!
2,7 millions.
It's gone up?
Exactly.
"2,7 millions,
"that you will leave tomorrow ..."
"That you will leave tomorrow"
"behind the picture
'The Angelus' of Millet,"
"in the Louvre."
That brings us to "The Angelus"...
"The Angelus" of Millet,"
It's a stroke of genius. Simple.
You wouldn't understand.
Carry on.
"If you involve
the police,"
"you will never see
your child again."
Ah no!
I'm not putting that.
It's a figure of speech.
Underline the last sentence.
"Your child..."
"Otherwise your child..."
Hey, hang on...
"...will be back at home
the same evening at 8 o'clock."
"Your child will be back at home
the same evening at 8 o'clock..."
Signed...
"Two men prepared to do anything."
"Prepared to do anything"?
Me, I'm not prepared to do anything.
It's better if the recipient
doesn't know that.
This is the address.
You only have to copy it.
Avenue Victor-Emmanuel.
Where are you going?
- To post the letter.
Think so?
For the important things
I trust only myself.
Dr Koltz's clinic.
I'm listening, sir.
Yes?
An ambulance for 17 h 30?
Very well.
Room 220.
Yes, I've made a note.
Room 228, please?
First passageway on the left,
all the way to the end, sir.
Let's see if I've got this straight,
first passageway on the right?
No sir, on the left.
Why did you do that?
What's up?
- Paolo.
Paolo?
Who's is it?
Hello, Paolo.
- Hello.
What did they do to you?
Did they hang you by the foot?
Doesn't allow you to move.
It is a device,
a continuous extension
to avoid the shortening
of the leg.
"A continuous extension?"
Ah good.
You look good.
Does it hurt?
No, I'm having fun!
It's insane how good
a time I'm having!
You see, I didn't spare
any expense:
the best clinic,
your own room,
as if you were
a millionaire already.
Also, you have a pretty balcony.
That you can enjoy,
from time to time...
Did you mail the letter?
Yes. They must have
received it by now.
It was Eric's idea to bring
you the oranges.
How thoughtful of him.
Give him the oranges.
- No.
Tell poor Paolo
what you told me before.
I have nothing to say.
Let me remind you,
you told me that you regre...
that you regretted...
That you had ...
For ... for ...
forgotten to remove
the rope.
You have to encourage him
to repeat what he said.
He is so shy.
-Don't trouble yourself.
Do you have the newspapers?
Yes, but I didn't have time
to read them.
Pass them to me.
And you, leave us a moment,
go have fun in the corner.
Is there any mention?
Rather.
Hang on, look.
- What is it?
A photo-fit.
- Of whom?
Of you.
Of me?
- Yes.
That doesn't look like me,
not at all.
A little, from here to here.
Did anyone see you in the Wood?
2 or 3 people.
The investigators interrogated
these 2 or 3 people
and reconstituted your face.
The classic stroke.
"The classic stroke?"
Since it is
the classic stroke,
Why didn't they make
a photo of you?
The housekeeper would not have spoken
to the police about me.
They would've blamed her for having
left the youngster on his alone.
Everybody thinks that
you're the kidnapper.
Of course,
it falls on me again.
This is awful.
"The captor is a man
of large size,
"with broad shoulders,
and long arms like a monkey"
"and a beastly cad."
"A beastly cad?"
- Yes.
"While Miss Florentine,"
"the charming
and devoted housekeeper,"
"held Eric by the hand..."
She wasn't holding his hand.
- Let me finish.
He came to me.
It's only a detail,
but nevertheless.
"Holding Eric by the hand.
An individual emerged from the thicket,"
"pounced on the girl,"
"snatched the child away from her"
"and disappeared with big strides
while carrying away his prey."
They're crazy.
They deserve to be put straight.
Yes. You should hold
a press conference.
But you must admit...
What?
- The youngster.
No, he's playing.
He's a sweet child.
- Raise the bed up a little.
What, you want me to raise the bed?
- Yes.
No! No!
Turn the crank.
"The crank"...
Yes, underneath.
No! The other way.
Doesn't it surprise you
that in all these articles,
there isn't a word
from the parents?
Too upset maybe.
I wonder if they're
bothered about their son.
Can parents that have become
so uncaring even exist?
We'll see if they remain
so indifferent
now that they've received our letter.
You will go to the Louvre.
Tomorrow.
I'd prefer to be going
in your place.
Me too, I'd prefer
to be in yours:
in continuous extension.
You have to stay like this
for a long time?
A fracture of the thigh,
doesn't heal itself in 24 hours.
Do you want to see the X-rays?
Over there on the table.
X-rays? I don't understand such things.
- Yes, yes, yes.
You'll understand better.
Oh là là!
You're missing an important bit.
"An important bit" of what?
A bit of bone,
I suppose.
It's him!
Stop him!
He's shredded everything!
Get the pieces.
- Where are they?
In the garden. Quickly!
Of course!
The doctor is coming this morning.
Pleased with yourself?
You pulled another of your pranks?
I'll remember all this,
when I'm back on my feet.
You will pay dearly
for every prank.
Put down those scissors!
- Ask me nicely.
Put down those scissors,
I tell you!
No ...
Don't do that, Eric.
I beg of you, my child.
Eric ... Antoine!
Eric, don't do that.
I beg of you my child.
Eric ...
Antoine!
Do something.
Do something? Do something?
That's easy for you to say!
Eric, come help me.
No, anyone but him!
I didn't do anything!
I didn't do anything!
What's happening?
- Signalling error.
The X-rays, quick.
Doctor don't go.
No, this goes, this goes ...
No, no. Try it with yours.
Hang on.
It's nothing.
Look, that would make your
leg zigzag.
There, the problem's fixed.
Try not to move about anymore.
You're not a child.
Thank you, gentlemen.
He'll behave himself,
wont you?
He is going to be very good,
little Paolo.
Where's the youngster?
I don't know.
Find him immediately.
- Is it really necessary?
With him go our 2,7 millions.
"Go?"
- Yes.
Eric?
Come quickly.
Come on.
Come.
Eric, You must promise me
you'll be good.
Because I have an errand to run.
Why don't you take me?
Are you going to see Eye of snake?
No, you're mistaken.
You know, the more I think about it,
the less I like Eye of snake.
When his hair grows back,
I'll scalp it again.
Why didn't you scalp me,
while you were about it?
- I like you very much.
You are kind like a horse.
- "A horse?"
I'd like to stay with you forever.
Don't go getting such ideas
in you head so quickly.
Provided that Dad doesn't put the
money behind the picture.
What picture?
"The Angelus" of Millet.
I heard everything.
My God,
he heard everything.
This way, boys.
I am subtle Fox.
And you?
Who're you?
We're from the neighborhood.
What do you want?
I'm locked in.
Let me out.
We don't have the key.
You don't need a key.
Find something
to demolish the door.
I am going to look for
my Dad's box of tools.
Yes, fetch your Dad's toolbox.
After, I'll teach you
a bunch of stuff.
Excuse me sir,
I've come to see "The Angelus."
Down there and on the right.
Excuse me, I've come to see "The Angelus."
Second booth on the right.
Yes.
In French.
What transparency
and what purity!
The hues are sombre,
and yet there is
such a wealth.
One would like to stand
behind the canvas
to discover the secret
of its radiance.
You see ...
I wanted to see
the radiance...
Colour...
Hey boys, watch this.
Maurice!
- What?
Maurice...
I saw an Indian!
Of course, of course
you saw an Indian,
a big Indian.
No, quite a small Indian.
Of course,
lots of Indians.
And now,
you're going to take your drops.
How did you get out?
- Through the window.
Why not through the door?
- You'd locked me in.
That's true.
But that could've been dangerous.
You'll listen to what you're told.
Don't be angry,
I've got a surprise for you.
It that us
or is it the Eiffel tower?
*...separates you from 2 million.
I'd like you to answer that.
Black Eagle,
I present you Hair of bison,
Pensive buffalo,
Agile deer,
Wild cat
and Beak of vulture.
Listen to me,
Beak of vulture, Wild Cat
and Pensive Buffalo :
This whole menagerie can
clear off immediately.
Black Eagle has more words
than brains.
What did you say?
- They'll clear off after.
After what?
- After the big feast.
Because you plan
to organize a big feast here?
Tonight, subtle Fox has
invited his brothers
to celebrate
the fourth moon.
My God! "The fourth?"
The parents of your brothers
expect them home for dinner.
They've asked their
parents permission.
The gray heads agreed.
The gray heads maybe,
but not me.
That's enough, go home!
If you make them leave,
I'll tell them everything.
What, "everything?"
- Everything.
Let's be serious.
Listen to me, big chiefs,
promise me, that after the feast,
you'll go back home.
YES, SIR!
Call me black Eagle.
"Royam amannah."
"Royam amannah."
"Royam amannah."
"Royam amannah."
Royam amannah!
Royam amannah! Royam amannah!
Royam amannah!
What is this,
a bomb site?
Where is my son?
I don't know, look for him.
Etienne!
My God I didn't recognize you.
Who's painted you up
to look like that?
It was you!
What was me? You've got a cheek!
What do you see on my face here?
Listen Hair of bison,
tell the squaw a little something
about who did this to me.
Shut up! - Shut up?
Who's going to clean this off?
Before you say any more;
I've provided a great feast.
That's just a burnt-cork 'tattoo'
to celebrate the fourth moon.
You have the effect
of a full moon on me, you do.
Come, Etienne.
Carrying on like this at your age...
I'd advise you to take off,
before your parents arrive.
Go, run along, run along...
Go, go.
That's not yours.
Oh, my God!
Paolo.
Well, "The Angelus?"
Still nothing.
- It's bizarre.
And at the house,
how's that going?
It's very lively.
We have a lot of guests.
You know Eric.
Well, multiply the
"making", and the "fetching"...
by "six".
There is Agile Deer,
Hair of ...
of Bison,
Patient Vulture
and ...
Buffalo ...
sleepy.
Excuse me,
it's been four nights
since I closed my eyes.
Then ...
you see ...
Paolo,
Promise me you wont be angry.
I've done something terrible.
Terrible but necessary.
Antoine, you didn't?
Don't tell me that ...
Yes, Paolo,
I've just done it.
I left him at the door
of his house.
Are you mad?
Maybe,
but if you knew
how much better I feel now.
No more noise,
no more worries ...
I'm finally going
to be able to sleep.
sleep ...
sleep ...
Is he yours, this child?
- Yes!
Hello, black Eagle.
- Hello ...
What're you doing back again?
- I took a taxicab.
With what money?
That makes 2 320 F,
without the tip.
"Without the tip?"
I suppose you did
the tour of France on the way here?
The tour of the clinics.
Your son didn't remember which one.
My "son?" Ah, yes ...
How much did you say?
- 2,320 F.
Keep the change.
- Thank you, sir.
Goodbye, little one.
He's cute.
- Very cute.
Goodbye, gentlemen.
See you again.
Why did you do this?
- I get bored all alone.
It's more fun
With you and your friend.
That's true.
We cry with laughter.
If you want him to look after you,
be sensible.
I will be sensible.
When are you coming
back to the house?
Tomorrow.
- Are you better?
Not quite.
I still need plenty of rest.
You understand
what that means, plenty of rest?
The big chief drank your words.
Well then ...
Tell me paul, at what age do
they grow out of crap like this?
You said a bad word.
You will be punished.
The intellectual development
of a child
doesn't necessarily follow
its physical development.
That aside tell me,
with Eric,
playing Indians,
how long is that going to last?
Until he's 13 or 15.
Suddenly I don't feel so good.
What's wrong?
- I need to sit down.
That's better.
Eric, What are you doing?
Come here where I can keep an eye you.
Now!
Antoinne, We asked for too much.
- You think so?
Yes.
- Don't touch that!
We're going to send
a second letter.
You'll find pen and paper
in that drawer over there.
Fine.
Who said you could
touch that?
Ready?
"Sir ....
"Taking into consideration the
present financial difficulties,"
"we agree,
unusually"
"to return your son to you"
"in return for the sum of ..."
"1,5 million."
"this is our final offer."
"This is our final offer..."
Final ... maybe.
"We must be in possession ..."
"We must be in possession ..."
With four "s."
"In possession of the money"
"tomorrow by 5pm."
"Of the money ..."
No!
- Don't you agree?
No, it's him.
- He didn't do anything.
He was about to.
Did you inhale too much?
That's it.
"By 5pm."
"In which case,"
"your son will be returned you
safe and sound at 8pm this evening."
"At 8pm this evening."
"Place the envelope ..."
Wherever you want,
but not behind "The Angelus."
What have you got against
"The Angelus"?
I'm begining to know it
by heart.
The guard looks at me
in a funny way.
He surely takes me
for a maniac.
Okay, if it makes you happy
we'll change museum. Write;
"Please go
to the Grévin wax museum,"
"to the group of Bonaparte
at Malmaison."
"Slip the envelope"
"in the right pocket
of Napoléon Bonaparte."
"Signed: two desperate men."
Paolo.
- Yes?
Now that we're alone,
I can tell you: that's it.
What?
I've just had an interview
with Napoleon Bonaparte.
he had something for us
in his right pocket.
Where is this something?
- In my left pocket.
Didn't you open it?
- Not in the street.
It isn't heavy.
1,5 million in banknotes,
that'd be bigger.
It's very thin.
Ah, it's a cheque.
Open it, you ass.
The "ass" is going to open it.
That's all?
- I think so.
Nothing else in the envelope?
Nothing.
- What's it say?
It's typed.
Well?
Well really!
That's just great!
- What?
Guess.
- Pass me the letter.
Let me read it to you.
It's absolutely beautiful.
You listening?
- Yes.
"To the two desparate men."
"I received your letters
concerning the ransom"
"that you demand
to return my son to me."
So far, so good.
"But I still find your last
price a bit high."
You'll see.
"And I have honor
to submit you"
"a counterproposal
that I hope you will accept."
"A counterproposal?"
Hang on.
"You will bring Eric back
to my house yourself"
"and you will pay me,
in cash"
"a sum
of 232,000 F."
That's what it says?
"You will pay me?"
And why
232,000 F?
It's insane!
It's contrary to all custom.
You shouldn't let him do that.
But if it keeps him busy,
it gives us time to think.
232,000 F...
All our savings.
To the last, 232,000 F,
it's not a huge amount.
This man could have asked
2,5 million francs.
What are you saying?
Most certainly.
It's his right.
Where would you have got the
2,5 millions, if he'd asked for it?
Double fool!
It's not him that kidnapped our child,
it's us that kidnapped his!
Ah, yes.
That's true.
But listen,
I'm going to tell you something :
this child, if we kept him,
he would cost us more
than 232,000 F.
Because with him expenses,
they quickly mount up.
Wait and you'll see,
the bill from the clinic
and all of
the small damages.
And that one, facing,
he made us pay
13,700 F for windows.
He didn't even have them replaced.
If Mrs. Jumelin
would like to come and see?
My beloved child.
I'd know him anywhere.
Alain, come see.
Charming!
Adorable.
- My God!
I am going to faint.
No, no.
Relax.
Is this going to last a long time,
this comedy?
This makes 3 days that you're
there watching.
I paid you for 3 days.
What are you complaining about?
I hadn't foreseen this much
inconvenience.
I don't feel comfortable
with all this anymore.
You want additional compensation?
Certainly sir, it's only natural.
After all, without us
you wouldn't have found Eric.
Hardly 2 hours after,
you were alerted.
If you'd counted
on the cop...
I am not a cop,
I am a private detective sir.
Sooner or later...
- Alright, alright.
There.
Now, leave us.
They wear me out!
What are we going to do?
Don't you think they've had enough now?
No, no, no you don't.
Let me see them again
a moment.
Eric's enjoying himself.
Besides, so am I.
For once
the whole family's happy.
By the way...
Here's your cheque.
We're even?
- Perfectly even.
232,000 F.
Alain, Alain...
Think of my heart.
If you'll just have
a little patience?
Think about mauve pigeons
against a white sky.
I'm thinking of it,
I'm thinking of it.
Hello? Black Eagle here.
Are you Antoine Patureau?
- Himself.
This is the voice of your conscience
speaking to you.
Paolo, it's the voice
of my conscience.
The voice of my conscience...
- No big words.
The voice of my conscience
has come to bother you.
Down.
Say, you should remove
those ridiculous rags.
Yes, you're right.
But how do you know
that I have these rags on me?
Since I am the voice
of your conscience.
Yes... you're right.
Why do you scratch your head?
Paolo!
What is it?
My conscience phoned me.
Are you kidding me?
- I assure you.
What did it want, your conscience?
- I don't know.
My God,
here it is again.
Don't answer.
It is me again.
- It's there again.
Hello? Hello?
It is not you that I want
to speak to, it is Antoine.
You're holding the receiver
upside-down.
Then, it's settled.
You will bring the child back
to his parents tonight at 8pm.
Count on me.
And you will pay 232,000 F.
About the 232,000 F,
is it still necessary...
Because... we...
we, are nice people.
You ask us for
232,000 F,
but we, we haven't got
as much as that.
Yes, yes.
Don't listen to your friend,
who's making signs.
It's right.
Why are you making signs?
Don't sit down.
Listen, about the 232,000 F,
maybe we can manage somehow.
You see,
people of good will,
always end up getting along.
So, until tonight.
You know the address.
By the way,
don't leave Eric
to play with the catapult.
Here.
You told me that you wouldn't
take me back.
Be reasonable, you know that
we can't keep you with us.
I don't want to go back home.
I'll be bored without you.
Me too. But we'll see each
other again sometimes.
Why can't you come and
live at my house?
Live with you?
Well you see, I'd never thought of that.
Are you willing?
- Yes, I'm willing.
And you won't ever leave me?
- Never.
Come on.
Hello, Jules.
- Sir..
Say... was that you?
It was me.
Dad! Mom!
- My child.
How you have have suffered,
my love.
It's him.
He's called black Eagle.
It's him that kidnapped me.
"Kidnapped"...
There's no need to exaggerate.
He's come back.
Goodnight, Subtle Fox.
-Goodnight, Black Eagle.
It's nothing.
- Oh, I know.
Do you have the money?
Yes.
Here it is, sir.
And 12 that makes 32.
We are even.
Enter.
The staff have asked me
to ask you ...
whether master Eric is definitely
back in the house.
- Evidently.
In that case, if sir will permit me
to take the liberty to warn him:
me, whatever happens,
I won't leave sir,
but Marthe and Joseph
have decided to leave.
Marthe, I understand.
But why Joseph?
Let's see, sir ...
Remember,
last week ...
Scalped?
- Yes, sir.
At dawn?
- Yes, sir.
We'll sort that out later.
You can go.
I should be going too.
One moment.
I know that you have become
attached to my son
and that my son has
become attached to you.
We have become very attached
to each other.
I don't want to deprive you
too brutally of his company.
It's very kind of you.
He will come to see you
every Sunday.
"Every Sunday?"
No thanks are necessary,
it's the least I can do.
I'm even going to make you a present.
What are you doing?
I give you half
of the 232,000 F.
"Half"...
I'd prefer 116,000 F
in whole banknotes.
A little patience.
Every Sunday,
Eric will return to you
half a banknote.
Little by little,
You get your money back.
5,000 F
per Sunday, it is...
Take it or leave it.
I'll take it.
Say, Mr Jumelin,
I wanted to ask you...
for starters,
you don't think
that one Sunday out of two...
No, I don't think so.
- You don't think so.
If you don't think so,
then that's how it is.
Make like I do.
Because sometimes here...
depending on which day it is.
- Yes, it depends.
So, did it go well?
It went very well.
You, you seem to be yourself again.
What makes you say that?
Nothing but the look on your face,
I guess that you gave him all of it.
What, "all?"
What does that mean?
The 220,000 F of our savings
and the 12,000 that you had.
Hang on ...
Look.
Antoine, I congratulate you.
No, no.
- Yes, yes.
I would not have believed you
capable of such a stroke.
You see, you never let me.
What is it?
- I don't know.
It's this.
My friend...
Well?
- Well, my old...
It's the trumpet.
-"the trumpet."
My God!
Of course, he reads.
Can I turn out the light?
- Yes.
Morning, Paolo.
- Morning.
Beautiful day, hey?
A pity that the child
isn't here.
I would have taken him
for a walk.
Just to break some windows
in passing.
Don't be mean.
I know you,
if he came back now,
you'd welcome him with open arms.
This is precisely
what I told Mr Jumelin.
What did you say?
- Nothing.
He'll only come on Sundays.
-"Sundays?"
There aren't many Sundays in a year.
- There're 52 of them!
"52?"
Triple idiot!
- "Triple?" Well ...
When I think that I congratulated
you last night.
Scream, it'll make you feel better.
You are going to return immediately
to Mr Jumelin...
How's that?
You will tell him
that he can keep his youngster...
What's that? You're a bit hoarse ...
That he keeps his youngster!
Eye of snake,
I will scalp you at dawn.
No, Paolo,
I assure you that he's become
very kind.
This last time,
he didn't break hardly anything.
Black Eagle!
- He's softened ...
Open the door of your wigwam!

English Translation: PBT
Big Chief
Why on Earth are you looking at me
like that?
I don't recognise your face.
You've seen it before.
We've worked together for 20 years.
Never, in 20 years,
I've never seen you look this worried.
Me, I look "worried?"
Yes. Perfectly.
The vitreous eye,
the soft lip,
the collapsed zygomatic...
"My collapsed zygomatic?"
Oh, no. Now, you're exaggerating.
What is this "zygomatic"?
A facial muscle.
"Facial?"
A muscle of the face,
if you prefer.
I only have to look at you
to see that you're getting yourself down.
I'm not getting myself down,
but the more I think about it...
You can't go through life
without thinking after all...
Listen to me Paolo. I saw
a movie about the abduction of children.
Every time,
the kidnappers give themselves away.
In real life,
It's different.
The leading role was played by
"Jame Stéouart"...
"James Stewart."
No, then it wasn't him.
I know what I mean...
I tell you I've got it all worked out,
nothing left to chance.
Like your little classified ad had
nothing left to chance:
"The shy, become chiefs"
"Explanatory note
C.O.D.."
It's a long time since
you brought that up.
I'll bring it up as much as I please.
Because the one that got treated as a swindler,
was me.
The one that got punched in the mouth,
was me.
You, you weren't there,
when he came,
the shy one that wanted to become a chief.
I'd set up another business.
Ah yes. Raising
snails in my room.
Another of your schemes.
I ruined myself to feed them,
and once they were good and big,
they set sail.
The whole building stuffed themselves on snails
for a week.
The whole place reeked of garlic from the
5th floor to the ground floor.
Enough to knock you down the stairs.
No. You see, Paolo,
you're very intelligent,
you went to school,
you know Latin, American,
the zygomatic and heaps of things.
You're the brain,
I'm only the arm.
But today,
the arm tells you no.
Farewell, Ali.
Hello, Omar.
Good...
Let's remain washers of cars,
since your ambition stops there.
Let's see, let's see.
It is pretty, isn't it?
But 2,5 millions...
Unfortunately,
we don't even have
250,000 francs in savings.
And the river passes
right behind?
Yes.
That must be a good corner,
for fishing.
Surely.
Only,
2,5 million francs...
Yes.
Say, Paolo...
Suppose...
Just suppose :
if we take the child,
you won't hurt him?
Hell,
you take me for a monster?
As for the father,
he's rich enough.
For him, 2,5 millions
isn't anything.
You think so?
The products of Jumelin Beauty,
the Jumelin brillantine,
creams, soaps...
"Jumelin toothpaste gives you
the smile of a cherub."
he doesn't even know
how many zeros he has to his account.
And his car?
I could make four cars out of
one like that.
And his posh hotel,
avenue Victor-Emmanuel,
his racing stable...
I planned it all meticulously,
I'd noted the comings and goings
of the child, of the parents, of the servants.
It's all in here.
We could've been rich.
You don't want to.
Too bad.
I didn't say
that I didn't want to,
I said that it could
be dangerous.
You are going to follow me,
you are going to obey me.
Yes, Paolo.
Everything will be fine.
You remember,
the car?
It's a 'Versailles'. I left it
just in front of the garage.
You can't miss it.
You'll take the key from the office,
below the picture.
It's the third one
from the left.
"Third one from the left."
Yes, Paolo.
Hello, Miss Rose.
Hello.
Don't you have your account?
Yes, yes.
Are't you coming back on Monday then?
No.
My friend and I
are thinking of changing profession.
We want to settle
to our account.
Goodbye, miss.
Goodbye.
You seem strange.
Me?
Why would I seem strange?
I am very normal.
Maybe it's you who's being ... strange.
Goodbye, miss.
Goodbye.
You scared me.
You take the Versailles.
I'll wait for you at the crossroads.
What...
Pardon me, sir.
It's nothing.
It happens to me too.
These cars all look alike.
Is yours black as well?
Blue gray,
a neutral colour...
These type of cars ...
the colour looks different when they're washed.
Good day sir.
Excuse me.
Ah, at last!
Well, you took your time.
Faster, faster. We must get to the Wood
before the youngster.
But the parents are going to be worried.
It's necessary that they are
worried.
If they aren't worried,
they won't pay.
Yes, that's true.
It'd be necessary nevertheless,
to reassure them.
Of course. We'll invite them
to dinner one evening.
Ah yes?
Say Paolo, what if the child
doesn't want to follow me?
I have the necessary.
What is it?
A narcotic.
It's chloroform.
"chloroform?"
Isn't that dangerous?
No. You pour some some
drops on your handkerchief
and you apply it to the
child's nose and they sleep.
Clueless! Hot-head!
"hot-head", to me?
That one then ...
Pay attention, good God.
I'm paying attention ...
"Clueless", that again ...
But "hot-head" ...
There?
Look!
Eric! Eric, enough!
You're going to hurt someone.
Boys of this age
have need of turbulent games.
It seems to me that we've
met before.
You always seem
so melancholic, so mysterious.
Me too, seems to me
I've met you before.
Eric?
Aren't you black Eagle?
If you want.
And you, who are you?
Subtle fox.
Delighted.
- Back!
You are a dirty Comanche.
I am an Iroquois.
Your tribe are enemies with mine.
- No, listen...
There you see, how it is
between Redskins.
You've broken something of mine,
Calm fox.
"Subtle!"
No, no. Listen...
Our tribes were enemies,
but propose to make the peace.
To bury the axe of war?
Yes, that's it.
We're going to "bury
the axe of war."
Good.
Take me to your wigwam.
Where's that?
- To your wigwam, your house.
We are going to smoke
the pipe of peace.
That's it, we'e going to smoke
the pipe of peace.
Do have you one?
- Yes.
Truly?
Nothing is truer, you'll see.
Come.
Already? The time passes
so quickly with you.
I have to leave you.
See you soon.
Maybe.
You're terrible,
I don't even know your name.
Eric?
Eric?
Eric!
Oh! A satyr!
- No, these are Indians.
Indians?
Hot chestnuts,
hot!
A tiny little cone sir?
- No, thank you.
If the big chief is willing
to enter the wigwam
of his brother black Eagle.
Hello, Antoine.
- Hello.
How's it going?
- It comes, it goes ...
What's that?
- It is my nephew.
He's come to stay
for a few days.
Oh that's better.
He frightened me!
I didn't know that
you had a nephew.
Me either.
Finally, I knew it...
Did he swallow his tongue?
- Don't you say hello?
Say hello to the lady.
Hello, pale face!
- Yes, yes...
You know,
chldren nowadays...
They have a little fun.
You pitched
your tent so high
to better
keep an eye on the valley?
Yes, that's it. It's to better
keep an eye the valley.
Stop here.
Go on.
Is this it, your wigwam?
Of Course,
compared to your wigwam,
this must seem
very small to you.
Oh lord, the chloroform!
I am going to fall.
Black Eagle,
what's the matter?
I don't know...
Antoine?
What's happening?
Antoine?
Where's the youngster?
- What youngster?
The Jumelin boy?
He was with you, wasn't he?
I don't know, I'm sleepy.
- I'm going to wake you up.
I'm going to wake you up.
- It's your narcotic...
Breathe well, breathe strong.
Get down from there.
- No!
Dad, there he is, over there!
I see him.
Little hooligan!
Is he yours?
- No.
Yes.
Finally, he is ours
without being ours.
Go and get him.
- How?
Go and get him.
- You want...
Go.
- Don't shoot, hey.
Attention.
Listen...
Let's go, let's go...
Raise your leg...
Come down from there.
- Come and get me.
Bunch of little brats!
You little rascal!
You're going
to pay me for the damages.
Don't get in a state, sir.
We are
both civilized people.
I'll make a complaint to the police.
We'll pay you.
Yes, we'll pay.
Let me know the estimate.
Why did you do that?
- I don't like windows.
Evidently...
It's a silly answer.
Who is this?
- This is my friend Paolo.
He seems like a window.
- No, no...
Come see what I bought you.
Here ...
here ...
here ...
What did you do with the car?
I abandoned it in an empty lot.
You didn't have any problems
With the youngster?
He doesn't realize anything.
- You kidnapped me.
No.
What an idea!
I like to be kidnapped.
More than lessons.
I'm on holiday.
In a sense, he's right.
You're not tying me up?
Don't talk crazy.
Here's the appetizer.
Do I eat like I do at home?
- Naturally.
One, two...
three.
Are they good?
- Luscious.
Not too much oil?
- No.
Not too many bones?
- Not too many.
Emjoy.
I'll prepare the next course.
What are you doing?
Do you drink wine, at home?
- Yes.
With water?
No. Pure.
Paolo, can you give
pure wine to a child?
I don't care. Let him drink water.
Especially as the water is excellent,
in this district,
much better
that in the 8th precinct.
Hang on.
Who is it?
- The police.
Already?
You must be mistaken.
We should flee through the window.
- Yes. It would be so funny!
What is it?
On behalf of Dad,
for the windows.
He asked for an estimate :
that makes 13 700 F.
"13 700 F"?
We didn't bombard
a cathedral.
If you don't pay up immediately,
Dad's going to make a complaint.
You will say
to your father that...
What is it that I should tell him?
You will tell him that we are going to pay
immediately and without delay.
Dirty toad!
It's nothing, it's nothing.
But it's nothing.
Quiet, I'm getting to it.
It's suprising,
how well that holds.
I am going to pull your head off.
- Yes, pull his head off.
The neighbors would complain.
I'm going to tell Dad.
- No, you're not going to tell him.
We're going to give you a gift.
What do you want?
- A fire engine.
A fire...
A fire engine?
Ah, a small car,
a toy?
Paolo, in your opinion,
how much does that cost?
1 300 F.
- Devil, devil...
With the big ladder,
or without the big ladder?
You're not funny.
- You hear, Paolo?
I'll find you on the warpath.
Be quiet!
13 700 and 1 300...
That makes 15 000,
all together.
Here it is.
Goodbye, my child,
and say hello to your father.
If you see anything else
that you'd like,
come and tell me and
I'll buy it for you.
You, you go...
Oh, my cutlets.
I'm afraid that they're overdone.
I don't want to embarrass you.
No, I don't want to embarrass you.
Give Antoine a cutlet right now.
Give a cutlet
to Antoine.
Do you hear?
Give Antoine a cutlet!
Still, there's nothing for me?
There must be discipline,
otherwise...
Hey well...
Do you see how he is?
He would rather choke himself than
give you even a little of your share.
Question of education.
Or a question of stomach.
Go get the bananas.
I'm going.
They don't feed this child.
Here are the bananas.
Paolo?
What's happening?
- We're being attacked.
Every man to his post!
Make him be quiet, Antoine.
- Shut up.
Listen, Fragile Fox...
"Subtle" Fox.
- Yes, if you like.
Calm down,
the attack is repulsed.
Black Eagle,
I go to my tent,
and you're going to keep watch.
As you say, yes...
I'll keep watch...
Black Eagle,
you're not keeping watch.
Keep watch,
so he gives us some peace.
What are you doing?
- I'm keeping watch.
Black Eagle, who is it that makes
the stars shine?
I don't know.
Black Eagle, what makes
the stars shine?
"What makes the stars shine?"
Say, Paolo, what makes
the stars shine?
The stars, what makes them shine?
I don't know.
You see, he doesn't know.
We'll look in the dictionary
tomorrow.
- No, immediately!
My God, what am I going
to do with you?
Is it finished, this comedy?
I need to sleep!
You don't speak, you hiss.
False brother.
You are called Eye of snake.
Eye of snake is a dirty type
Eye of snake is a dirty type
My God, he lies down there.
The Seine has its source
at the plateau of Langres.
7 times 7, 49.
Charlemagne was crowned
emperor of west
in the year 800...
Eye of snake is a dirty type
Eye of snake is a dirty type
Ouch!
- What is it. What's going on?
I ate too much.
- With me, that evens out.
I think I'm really ill.
What is it?
My God...
Paolo!
The child is sick.
No!
That's all we need.
He's not fooling.
He doesn't look good.
How do you feel?
- I want to be sick.
Where does it hurt?
- In my stomach.
From top to bottom
or bottom to top?
From right to left.
More on the right?
-Or more on the left?
On the left.
- On the left...
No, on the right.
It isn't more serious.
Paolo...
We need a doctor.
- It's not possible.
Why?
- In our situation...
We can't leave him
like that.
We're going to take care of
it by ourselves.
If I gave him a good drench?
- Maybe.
Wait...
All microbes
are in here.
- Ouch, I feel ill!
Stick out your tongue.
Inflamed tongue...
Pain to the right side.
Appendicitis...
Here is!
"Essential signs :
"violent pain
in the right iliac pit,
"to the point of Mr Burney,
"on the right of the umbilicus
and of the crest of the hipbone.
"Nausea, elevated temperature,
fast pulse,
"frequent nervous disorders
of the child..."
It's good, this.
- You first.
Me?
- Yes.
No...
- Yes.
It's good.
There. Who's this for?
- You again.
Ah, no.
- Yes.
Ah good?
If.
For me.
"Replace the ice..."
The treatment is very simple.
Especially, no purgative.
"No purgative."
Ice on the stomach,
it says.
If it says so ...
- What are you waiting for?
Ice!
Ice...
I'm going to look for it
immediately.
All the cafés will be closed.
Put a compresses of cold water
on him, while he's waiting.
It wasn't true.
I'm not sick!
It wasn't true.
I'm not sick!
Excuse me, do you have
any ice please?
Certainly, vanilla, chocolate,
raspberry, mocha?
No, appendicitis.
It's for a patient.
Pardon me,
I couldn't know.
Go along on the right to the bar,
it might be open.
Thank you sir,
and good luck with the bread.
What is it?
What do you want?
I'd like some ice.
It's for a patient.
Oh!
What's wrong?
The child has a pain
to the right side.
I thought that he had appendicitis.
I wanted to give him a purgative...
Oh, purgative...
I was told that it was necessary
to have ice.
I'd like a piece of ice.
Like that?
A bit bigger.
How much is that?
200 F.
Here.
Hey, hey!
There's no need to knock so hard.
Maurice?
Maurice?
- Eh?
I saw an enormous
block of ice
that went down the staircase.
Yes, my love, a block of ice,
from the North pole.
The floe, the icebergs...
Enough.
Enough, take your drops,
my dear.
It's all I could find.
It's still too much.
How is he?
- He will explain it to you himself.
There, repeat what
you told me a little while ago.
It wasn't true.
I'm not sick.
Hey well, that's a relief,
because...
What?
It wasn't true?
You'd deserve it
if I gave you a slap.
Let's smoke the pipe
of the peace.
You lie down now.
Black Eagle,
you are kind,
but Eye of snake,
is a traitor.
Say, what makes one sneeze?
"What makes one sneeze?"
If I tell you why
I'm going to sneeze ...
No.
What is it?
What are you laughing at?
Idiot!
Oh yes, you're so great.
Listen to me. Let's take stock:
13,700 F, for the windows,
1,300 F for the fire engine
with the big ladder,
3 sardines with oil,
2 cutlets,
10 kg of ice,
in addition to that a cold,
maybe the same Asian flu,
that turned the house upside down
and a neighbor who wants
to make a complaint.
It's going well, your idea.
Good grief...
Have a drink,
it'll calm you.
If you give me wine tomorrow,
I'll tell you a secret.
No. Do you hear?
No wine.
And no gestures.
Paolo shouts.
Black Eagle?
Black Eagle?
- Who's that?
Hey?
I scalped
Eye of snake at dawn.
What?
I scalped
Eye of snake at dawn.
You "scalped Eye of snake
at dawn?"
Yes.
Very well.
This child is terrifying.
He scalped Eye of snake.
"Eye of snake?"
But that's Paolo.
Paolo? Paolo?
Did you sleep well?
Yes, very well.
You didn't have any bad dreams?
No.
That makes me very happy.
I'm going to tell you something,
but don't be angry...
That wouldn't do any good.
Especially as it quite suits you.
And as it soon grows back.
What?
What's this...
Dirty vermin!
Don't hurt him,
we have to return him.
Let me deal with him,
I can be harsh.
Why did you cut
Paolo's hair?
Look at how little he has left now.
Aren't you ashamed of yourself?
You deserve a slap.
Here.
And another one. Here!
I'm even go to punch you.
Don't hit him so hard,
you're going to knock him out.
It's a good thing
you stopped me.
This kid, he drives you crazy.
We need to finish writing the letter!
What "letter?"
- The letter to his parents.
I'd completely forgotten.
I'll read it back:
"Sir ...."
It's a little dry.
If I put "dear Sir?"
Can I have the string?
- No.
Why do you always have to
antagonize him?
Let him have the string.
Take it, my child.
"Sir, your child
is in our possession..."
Possession, with two "s?"
- Evidently.
That makes four of them then.
Four "s" for only one word,
it's a lot, that.
Go on, go on.
You should trim what remains.
That'd even it up.
"We present to you the
following conditions:
"you will pay us
2,5 millions..."
No!
2,7 millions.
It's gone up?
Exactly.
"2,7 millions,
"that you will leave tomorrow ..."
"That you will leave tomorrow"
"behind the picture
'The Angelus' of Millet,"
"in the Louvre."
That brings us to "The Angelus"...
"The Angelus" of Millet,"
It's a stroke of genius. Simple.
You wouldn't understand.
Carry on.
"If you involve
the police,"
"you will never see
your child again."
Ah no!
I'm not putting that.
It's a figure of speech.
Underline the last sentence.
"Your child..."
"Otherwise your child..."
Hey, hang on...
"...will be back at home
the same evening at 8 o'clock."
"Your child will be back at home
the same evening at 8 o'clock..."
Signed...
"Two men prepared to do anything."
"Prepared to do anything"?
Me, I'm not prepared to do anything.
It's better if the recipient
doesn't know that.
This is the address.
You only have to copy it.
Avenue Victor-Emmanuel.
Where are you going?
- To post the letter.
Think so?
For the important things
I trust only myself.
Dr Koltz's clinic.
I'm listening, sir.
Yes?
An ambulance for 17 h 30?
Very well.
Room 220.
Yes, I've made a note.
Room 228, please?
First passageway on the left,
all the way to the end, sir.
Let's see if I've got this straight,
first passageway on the right?
No sir, on the left.
Why did you do that?
What's up?
- Paolo.
Paolo?
Who's is it?
Hello, Paolo.
- Hello.
What did they do to you?
Did they hang you by the foot?
Doesn't allow you to move.
It is a device,
a continuous extension
to avoid the shortening
of the leg.
"A continuous extension?"
Ah good.
You look good.
Does it hurt?
No, I'm having fun!
It's insane how good
a time I'm having!
You see, I didn't spare
any expense:
the best clinic,
your own room,
as if you were
a millionaire already.
Also, you have a pretty balcony.
That you can enjoy,
from time to time...
Did you mail the letter?
Yes. They must have
received it by now.
It was Eric's idea to bring
you the oranges.
How thoughtful of him.
Give him the oranges.
- No.
Tell poor Paolo
what you told me before.
I have nothing to say.
Let me remind you,
you told me that you regre...
that you regretted...
That you had ...
For ... for ...
forgotten to remove
the rope.
You have to encourage him
to repeat what he said.
He is so shy.
-Don't trouble yourself.
Do you have the newspapers?
Yes, but I didn't have time
to read them.
Pass them to me.
And you, leave us a moment,
go have fun in the corner.
Is there any mention?
Rather.
Hang on, look.
- What is it?
A photo-fit.
- Of whom?
Of you.
Of me?
- Yes.
That doesn't look like me,
not at all.
A little, from here to here.
Did anyone see you in the Wood?
2 or 3 people.
The investigators interrogated
these 2 or 3 people
and reconstituted your face.
The classic stroke.
"The classic stroke?"
Since it is
the classic stroke,
Why didn't they make
a photo of you?
The housekeeper would not have spoken
to the police about me.
They would've blamed her for having
left the youngster on his alone.
Everybody thinks that
you're the kidnapper.
Of course,
it falls on me again.
This is awful.
"The captor is a man
of large size,
"with broad shoulders,
and long arms like a monkey"
"and a beastly cad."
"A beastly cad?"
- Yes.
"While Miss Florentine,"
"the charming
and devoted housekeeper,"
"held Eric by the hand..."
She wasn't holding his hand.
- Let me finish.
He came to me.
It's only a detail,
but nevertheless.
"Holding Eric by the hand.
An individual emerged from the thicket,"
"pounced on the girl,"
"snatched the child away from her"
"and disappeared with big strides
while carrying away his prey."
They're crazy.
They deserve to be put straight.
Yes. You should hold
a press conference.
But you must admit...
What?
- The youngster.
No, he's playing.
He's a sweet child.
- Raise the bed up a little.
What, you want me to raise the bed?
- Yes.
No! No!
Turn the crank.
"The crank"...
Yes, underneath.
No! The other way.
Doesn't it surprise you
that in all these articles,
there isn't a word
from the parents?
Too upset maybe.
I wonder if they're
bothered about their son.
Can parents that have become
so uncaring even exist?
We'll see if they remain
so indifferent
now that they've received our letter.
You will go to the Louvre.
Tomorrow.
I'd prefer to be going
in your place.
Me too, I'd prefer
to be in yours:
in continuous extension.
You have to stay like this
for a long time?
A fracture of the thigh,
doesn't heal itself in 24 hours.
Do you want to see the X-rays?
Over there on the table.
X-rays? I don't understand such things.
- Yes, yes, yes.
You'll understand better.
Oh là là!
You're missing an important bit.
"An important bit" of what?
A bit of bone,
I suppose.
It's him!
Stop him!
He's shredded everything!
Get the pieces.
- Where are they?
In the garden. Quickly!
Of course!
The doctor is coming this morning.
Pleased with yourself?
You pulled another of your pranks?
I'll remember all this,
when I'm back on my feet.
You will pay dearly
for every prank.
Put down those scissors!
- Ask me nicely.
Put down those scissors,
I tell you!
No ...
Don't do that, Eric.
I beg of you, my child.
Eric ... Antoine!
Eric, don't do that.
I beg of you my child.
Eric ...
Antoine!
Do something.
Do something? Do something?
That's easy for you to say!
Eric, come help me.
No, anyone but him!
I didn't do anything!
I didn't do anything!
What's happening?
- Signalling error.
The X-rays, quick.
Doctor don't go.
No, this goes, this goes ...
No, no. Try it with yours.
Hang on.
It's nothing.
Look, that would make your
leg zigzag.
There, the problem's fixed.
Try not to move about anymore.
You're not a child.
Thank you, gentlemen.
He'll behave himself,
wont you?
He is going to be very good,
little Paolo.
Where's the youngster?
I don't know.
Find him immediately.
- Is it really necessary?
With him go our 2,7 millions.
"Go?"
- Yes.
Eric?
Come quickly.
Come on.
Come.
Eric, You must promise me
you'll be good.
Because I have an errand to run.
Why don't you take me?
Are you going to see Eye of snake?
No, you're mistaken.
You know, the more I think about it,
the less I like Eye of snake.
When his hair grows back,
I'll scalp it again.
Why didn't you scalp me,
while you were about it?
- I like you very much.
You are kind like a horse.
- "A horse?"
I'd like to stay with you forever.
Don't go getting such ideas
in you head so quickly.
Provided that Dad doesn't put the
money behind the picture.
What picture?
"The Angelus" of Millet.
I heard everything.
My God,
he heard everything.
This way, boys.
I am subtle Fox.
And you?
Who're you?
We're from the neighborhood.
What do you want?
I'm locked in.
Let me out.
We don't have the key.
You don't need a key.
Find something
to demolish the door.
I am going to look for
my Dad's box of tools.
Yes, fetch your Dad's toolbox.
After, I'll teach you
a bunch of stuff.
Excuse me sir,
I've come to see "The Angelus."
Down there and on the right.
Excuse me, I've come to see "The Angelus."
Second booth on the right.
Yes.
In French.
What transparency
and what purity!
The hues are sombre,
and yet there is
such a wealth.
One would like to stand
behind the canvas
to discover the secret
of its radiance.
You see ...
I wanted to see
the radiance...
Colour...
Hey boys, watch this.
Maurice!
- What?
Maurice...
I saw an Indian!
Of course, of course
you saw an Indian,
a big Indian.
No, quite a small Indian.
Of course,
lots of Indians.
And now,
you're going to take your drops.
How did you get out?
- Through the window.
Why not through the door?
- You'd locked me in.
That's true.
But that could've been dangerous.
You'll listen to what you're told.
Don't be angry,
I've got a surprise for you.
It that us
or is it the Eiffel tower?
*...separates you from 2 million.
I'd like you to answer that.
Black Eagle,
I present you Hair of bison,
Pensive buffalo,
Agile deer,
Wild cat
and Beak of vulture.
Listen to me,
Beak of vulture, Wild Cat
and Pensive Buffalo :
This whole menagerie can
clear off immediately.
Black Eagle has more words
than brains.
What did you say?
- They'll clear off after.
After what?
- After the big feast.
Because you plan
to organize a big feast here?
Tonight, subtle Fox has
invited his brothers
to celebrate
the fourth moon.
My God! "The fourth?"
The parents of your brothers
expect them home for dinner.
They've asked their
parents permission.
The gray heads agreed.
The gray heads maybe,
but not me.
That's enough, go home!
If you make them leave,
I'll tell them everything.
What, "everything?"
- Everything.
Let's be serious.
Listen to me, big chiefs,
promise me, that after the feast,
you'll go back home.
YES, SIR!
Call me black Eagle.
"Royam amannah."
"Royam amannah."
"Royam amannah."
"Royam amannah."
Royam amannah!
Royam amannah! Royam amannah!
Royam amannah!
What is this,
a bomb site?
Where is my son?
I don't know, look for him.
Etienne!
My God I didn't recognize you.
Who's painted you up
to look like that?
It was you!
What was me? You've got a cheek!
What do you see on my face here?
Listen Hair of bison,
tell the squaw a little something
about who did this to me.
Shut up! - Shut up?
Who's going to clean this off?
Before you say any more;
I've provided a great feast.
That's just a burnt-cork 'tattoo'
to celebrate the fourth moon.
You have the effect
of a full moon on me, you do.
Come, Etienne.
Carrying on like this at your age...
I'd advise you to take off,
before your parents arrive.
Go, run along, run along...
Go, go.
That's not yours.
Oh, my God!
Paolo.
Well, "The Angelus?"
Still nothing.
- It's bizarre.
And at the house,
how's that going?
It's very lively.
We have a lot of guests.
You know Eric.
Well, multiply the
"making", and the "fetching"...
by "six".
There is Agile Deer,
Hair of ...
of Bison,
Patient Vulture
and ...
Buffalo ...
sleepy.
Excuse me,
it's been four nights
since I closed my eyes.
Then ...
you see ...
Paolo,
Promise me you wont be angry.
I've done something terrible.
Terrible but necessary.
Antoine, you didn't?
Don't tell me that ...
Yes, Paolo,
I've just done it.
I left him at the door
of his house.
Are you mad?
Maybe,
but if you knew
how much better I feel now.
No more noise,
no more worries ...
I'm finally going
to be able to sleep.
sleep ...
sleep ...
Is he yours, this child?
- Yes!
Hello, black Eagle.
- Hello ...
What're you doing back again?
- I took a taxicab.
With what money?
That makes 2 320 F,
without the tip.
"Without the tip?"
I suppose you did
the tour of France on the way here?
The tour of the clinics.
Your son didn't remember which one.
My "son?" Ah, yes ...
How much did you say?
- 2,320 F.
Keep the change.
- Thank you, sir.
Goodbye, little one.
He's cute.
- Very cute.
Goodbye, gentlemen.
See you again.
Why did you do this?
- I get bored all alone.
It's more fun
With you and your friend.
That's true.
We cry with laughter.
If you want him to look after you,
be sensible.
I will be sensible.
When are you coming
back to the house?
Tomorrow.
- Are you better?
Not quite.
I still need plenty of rest.
You understand
what that means, plenty of rest?
The big chief drank your words.
Well then ...
Tell me paul, at what age do
they grow out of crap like this?
You said a bad word.
You will be punished.
The intellectual development
of a child
doesn't necessarily follow
its physical development.
That aside tell me,
with Eric,
playing Indians,
how long is that going to last?
Until he's 13 or 15.
Suddenly I don't feel so good.
What's wrong?
- I need to sit down.
That's better.
Eric, What are you doing?
Come here where I can keep an eye you.
Now!
Antoinne, We asked for too much.
- You think so?
Yes.
- Don't touch that!
We're going to send
a second letter.
You'll find pen and paper
in that drawer over there.
Fine.
Who said you could
touch that?
Ready?
"Sir ....
"Taking into consideration the
present financial difficulties,"
"we agree,
unusually"
"to return your son to you"
"in return for the sum of ..."
"1,5 million."
"this is our final offer."
"This is our final offer..."
Final ... maybe.
"We must be in possession ..."
"We must be in possession ..."
With four "s."
"In possession of the money"
"tomorrow by 5pm."
"Of the money ..."
No!
- Don't you agree?
No, it's him.
- He didn't do anything.
He was about to.
Did you inhale too much?
That's it.
"By 5pm."
"In which case,"
"your son will be returned you
safe and sound at 8pm this evening."
"At 8pm this evening."
"Place the envelope ..."
Wherever you want,
but not behind "The Angelus."
What have you got against
"The Angelus"?
I'm begining to know it
by heart.
The guard looks at me
in a funny way.
He surely takes me
for a maniac.
Okay, if it makes you happy
we'll change museum. Write;
"Please go
to the Grévin wax museum,"
"to the group of Bonaparte
at Malmaison."
"Slip the envelope"
"in the right pocket
of Napoléon Bonaparte."
"Signed: two desperate men."
Paolo.
- Yes?
Now that we're alone,
I can tell you: that's it.
What?
I've just had an interview
with Napoleon Bonaparte.
he had something for us
in his right pocket.
Where is this something?
- In my left pocket.
Didn't you open it?
- Not in the street.
It isn't heavy.
1,5 million in banknotes,
that'd be bigger.
It's very thin.
Ah, it's a cheque.
Open it, you ass.
The "ass" is going to open it.
That's all?
- I think so.
Nothing else in the envelope?
Nothing.
- What's it say?
It's typed.
Well?
Well really!
That's just great!
- What?
Guess.
- Pass me the letter.
Let me read it to you.
It's absolutely beautiful.
You listening?
- Yes.
"To the two desparate men."
"I received your letters
concerning the ransom"
"that you demand
to return my son to me."
So far, so good.
"But I still find your last
price a bit high."
You'll see.
"And I have honor
to submit you"
"a counterproposal
that I hope you will accept."
"A counterproposal?"
Hang on.
"You will bring Eric back
to my house yourself"
"and you will pay me,
in cash"
"a sum
of 232,000 F."
That's what it says?
"You will pay me?"
And why
232,000 F?
It's insane!
It's contrary to all custom.
You shouldn't let him do that.
But if it keeps him busy,
it gives us time to think.
232,000 F...
All our savings.
To the last, 232,000 F,
it's not a huge amount.
This man could have asked
2,5 million francs.
What are you saying?
Most certainly.
It's his right.
Where would you have got the
2,5 millions, if he'd asked for it?
Double fool!
It's not him that kidnapped our child,
it's us that kidnapped his!
Ah, yes.
That's true.
But listen,
I'm going to tell you something :
this child, if we kept him,
he would cost us more
than 232,000 F.
Because with him expenses,
they quickly mount up.
Wait and you'll see,
the bill from the clinic
and all of
the small damages.
And that one, facing,
he made us pay
13,700 F for windows.
He didn't even have them replaced.
If Mrs. Jumelin
would like to come and see?
My beloved child.
I'd know him anywhere.
Alain, come see.
Charming!
Adorable.
- My God!
I am going to faint.
No, no.
Relax.
Is this going to last a long time,
this comedy?
This makes 3 days that you're
there watching.
I paid you for 3 days.
What are you complaining about?
I hadn't foreseen this much
inconvenience.
I don't feel comfortable
with all this anymore.
You want additional compensation?
Certainly sir, it's only natural.
After all, without us
you wouldn't have found Eric.
Hardly 2 hours after,
you were alerted.
If you'd counted
on the cop...
I am not a cop,
I am a private detective sir.
Sooner or later...
- Alright, alright.
There.
Now, leave us.
They wear me out!
What are we going to do?
Don't you think they've had enough now?
No, no, no you don't.
Let me see them again
a moment.
Eric's enjoying himself.
Besides, so am I.
For once
the whole family's happy.
By the way...
Here's your cheque.
We're even?
- Perfectly even.
232,000 F.
Alain, Alain...
Think of my heart.
If you'll just have
a little patience?
Think about mauve pigeons
against a white sky.
I'm thinking of it,
I'm thinking of it.
Hello? Black Eagle here.
Are you Antoine Patureau?
- Himself.
This is the voice of your conscience
speaking to you.
Paolo, it's the voice
of my conscience.
The voice of my conscience...
- No big words.
The voice of my conscience
has come to bother you.
Down.
Say, you should remove
those ridiculous rags.
Yes, you're right.
But how do you know
that I have these rags on me?
Since I am the voice
of your conscience.
Yes... you're right.
Why do you scratch your head?
Paolo!
What is it?
My conscience phoned me.
Are you kidding me?
- I assure you.
What did it want, your conscience?
- I don't know.
My God,
here it is again.
Don't answer.
It is me again.
- It's there again.
Hello? Hello?
It is not you that I want
to speak to, it is Antoine.
You're holding the receiver
upside-down.
Then, it's settled.
You will bring the child back
to his parents tonight at 8pm.
Count on me.
And you will pay 232,000 F.
About the 232,000 F,
is it still necessary...
Because... we...
we, are nice people.
You ask us for
232,000 F,
but we, we haven't got
as much as that.
Yes, yes.
Don't listen to your friend,
who's making signs.
It's right.
Why are you making signs?
Don't sit down.
Listen, about the 232,000 F,
maybe we can manage somehow.
You see,
people of good will,
always end up getting along.
So, until tonight.
You know the address.
By the way,
don't leave Eric
to play with the catapult.
Here.
You told me that you wouldn't
take me back.
Be reasonable, you know that
we can't keep you with us.
I don't want to go back home.
I'll be bored without you.
Me too. But we'll see each
other again sometimes.
Why can't you come and
live at my house?
Live with you?
Well you see, I'd never thought of that.
Are you willing?
- Yes, I'm willing.
And you won't ever leave me?
- Never.
Come on.
Hello, Jules.
- Sir..
Say... was that you?
It was me.
Dad! Mom!
- My child.
How you have have suffered,
my love.
It's him.
He's called black Eagle.
It's him that kidnapped me.
"Kidnapped"...
There's no need to exaggerate.
He's come back.
Goodnight, Subtle Fox.
-Goodnight, Black Eagle.
It's nothing.
- Oh, I know.
Do you have the money?
Yes.
Here it is, sir.
And 12 that makes 32.
We are even.
Enter.
The staff have asked me
to ask you ...
whether master Eric is definitely
back in the house.
- Evidently.
In that case, if sir will permit me
to take the liberty to warn him:
me, whatever happens,
I won't leave sir,
but Marthe and Joseph
have decided to leave.
Marthe, I understand.
But why Joseph?
Let's see, sir ...
Remember,
last week ...
Scalped?
- Yes, sir.
At dawn?
- Yes, sir.
We'll sort that out later.
You can go.
I should be going too.
One moment.
I know that you have become
attached to my son
and that my son has
become attached to you.
We have become very attached
to each other.
I don't want to deprive you
too brutally of his company.
It's very kind of you.
He will come to see you
every Sunday.
"Every Sunday?"
No thanks are necessary,
it's the least I can do.
I'm even going to make you a present.
What are you doing?
I give you half
of the 232,000 F.
"Half"...
I'd prefer 116,000 F
in whole banknotes.
A little patience.
Every Sunday,
Eric will return to you
half a banknote.
Little by little,
You get your money back.
5,000 F
per Sunday, it is...
Take it or leave it.
I'll take it.
Say, Mr Jumelin,
I wanted to ask you...
for starters,
you don't think
that one Sunday out of two...
No, I don't think so.
- You don't think so.
If you don't think so,
then that's how it is.
Make like I do.
Because sometimes here...
depending on which day it is.
- Yes, it depends.
So, did it go well?
It went very well.
You, you seem to be yourself again.
What makes you say that?
Nothing but the look on your face,
I guess that you gave him all of it.
What, "all?"
What does that mean?
The 220,000 F of our savings
and the 12,000 that you had.
Hang on ...
Look.
Antoine, I congratulate you.
No, no.
- Yes, yes.
I would not have believed you
capable of such a stroke.
You see, you never let me.
What is it?
- I don't know.
It's this.
My friend...
Well?
- Well, my old...
It's the trumpet.
-"the trumpet."
My God!
Of course, he reads.
Can I turn out the light?
- Yes.
Morning, Paolo.
- Morning.
Beautiful day, hey?
A pity that the child
isn't here.
I would have taken him
for a walk.
Just to break some windows
in passing.
Don't be mean.
I know you,
if he came back now,
you'd welcome him with open arms.
This is precisely
what I told Mr Jumelin.
What did you say?
- Nothing.
He'll only come on Sundays.
-"Sundays?"
There aren't many Sundays in a year.
- There're 52 of them!
"52?"
Triple idiot!
- "Triple?" Well ...
When I think that I congratulated
you last night.
Scream, it'll make you feel better.
You are going to return immediately
to Mr Jumelin...
How's that?
You will tell him
that he can keep his youngster...
What's that? You're a bit hoarse ...
That he keeps his youngster!
Eye of snake,
I will scalp you at dawn.
No, Paolo,
I assure you that he's become
very kind.
This last time,
he didn't break hardly anything.
Black Eagle!
- He's softened ...
Open the door of your wigwam!
