00:05:10Yes, Miss Joan, your aunt has pulled it off at last.
00:05:13The old birds?
00:05:15The old birds, miss, yes.
00:05:18I say, the League of Nations and all that.
00:05:22Oh, Gilby, that's going to be rather fun, isn't it?
00:05:25Fun?
00:05:27Don't you hold to the League of Nations?
00:05:29Well, it's hardly my place to hold or not to hold to the League of Nations, Miss Joan.
00:05:32I dare say there is something to be said for the idea of bringing foreigners together.
00:05:36But it isn't only foreigners, Gilby, it's us too.
00:05:38We're all supposed to get together.
00:05:41I mean, we're members just like everybody else.
00:05:43Exactly, Miss.
00:05:44And there, I fancy, is where the scheme will eventually break down.
00:05:47One cannot alter human nature.
00:05:49Foreigners, after all, are foreigners.
00:05:52Most good, Miss.
00:05:54♪♪♪♪
00:05:57Gilby, don't forget the ice cream.
00:06:00No, I won't, Miss Bobby.
00:06:03Gilby! Gilby!
00:06:06My lady?
00:06:08What British bird has four toes and a crooked spine?
00:06:11The common thrush, my lady.
00:06:13Yes, well then, look, what's that the skeleton of?
00:06:15Well, it could be a small, deformed quail, my lady.
00:06:19Nonsense, it's not a game bird at all.
00:06:21It's a poor, murdered, defenceless thrush.
00:06:23I've sent for Monsieur Roland. He must explain this outrage.
00:06:26In the meantime, take away this poor, tortured friend.
00:06:29Yes, my lady.
00:06:31Good evening, Mr. Dawson.
00:06:32Evening, Mr. Gilby.
00:06:33Evening, my lad.
00:06:34Evening, Mr. Gilby.
00:06:35Father, grandfather, rich old Tony.
00:06:38Ah, thank you, my lad.
00:06:39Free rich old Tony, my dear.
00:06:42Dad, I'm thinking of giving in my notice.
00:06:45My boy, that's no way to talk.
00:06:47What's the trouble?
00:06:48Well, Lady Christabel's taking me to Geneva.
00:06:50Oh, I see.
00:06:51I'm afraid I'll have to go.
00:06:53I'm afraid I'll have to go.
00:06:55I'm afraid I'll have to go.
00:06:57I'm afraid I'll have to go.
00:06:59I'm afraid I'll have to go.
00:07:00She's taking me to Geneva.
00:07:01Oh, is that all?
00:07:02Well, isn't that enough?
00:07:03My boy, in our vacation, there are many arduous and unpleasant duties
00:07:08which we are called upon from time to time to perform.
00:07:11Now, accompanying one's mistress abroad is no pleasant duty, as I quite understand.
00:07:17But, if you are ordered to go to Geneva, you'll go to Geneva.
00:07:22And like it.
00:07:24Do I make myself plain?
00:07:27Yes, grandfather.
00:07:29I'll go to Geneva and like it.
00:07:46Saladoff, the mystery man of the Balkans.
00:07:49Yes, the mystery is how he accepts bribes from both sides at once and remains alive.
00:07:54Excuse me.
00:08:00Please.
00:08:01Who's there?
00:08:02You.
00:08:03Me?
00:08:04Hmm.
00:08:05Oh, the tears.
00:08:11It's funny.
00:08:12It does not flatter you, huh?
00:08:13Oh, yes, it's me, all right.
00:08:15But are my eyes... I mean, are they?
00:08:18Yes, definitely.
00:08:19Can I keep it?
00:08:20Yes, please.
00:08:21Don't you draw those beautiful funny faces for a job?
00:08:23Oh, the faces of people are not beautifully funny.
00:08:25Mostly, they are horribly funny.
00:08:27Oh, no.
00:08:28Look at that one.
00:08:29He's not horrible.
00:08:33Oh, vous êtes trop gentil.
00:08:34J'ai l'impression d'être une vedette de cinéma.
00:08:36And mine.
00:08:37In front of all these people?
00:08:38No, I'm too shy.
00:08:39You know, I'll do it inside.
00:08:41Come along.
00:08:42You see?
00:08:43That comes from writing a very bad but very successful book on love.
00:08:46Oh, but that's François de Fréceny, the French delegate.
00:08:48I know him.
00:08:49A little.
00:08:50He's very nice.
00:08:51All Frenchmen are nice to women.
00:08:53I just translated for him.
00:08:54You did what?
00:08:55In Copenhagen, when he came to the conference,
00:08:57I translated for a job.
00:08:58I can speak seven languages.
00:09:00Oh.
00:09:03Ah, British.
00:09:10You can always tell them by their stiff upper lip.
00:09:13Oh, look at that hand.
00:09:14Would you like to draw it?
00:09:16I can hardly resist.
00:09:17Please.
00:09:21With the complimentations of Felix Tembowski.
00:09:23With the thanks of Brigitte Knudsen.
00:09:32Monsieur.
00:09:34Monsieur.
00:09:35Sir Cosmo Brandon and party.
00:09:37Ah, Sir Brandon.
00:09:38Good evening, Sir Brandon.
00:09:39We have a very nice little suite for you, Sir Brandon.
00:09:42My name is Gilbey.
00:09:43Oh, yes.
00:09:44Sir Gilbey?
00:09:45I am Lady Christabel Buclair's butler.
00:09:47Buclair?
00:09:48Buclair?
00:09:49Lady Buclair?
00:09:50Oh, I'm very sorry, but we have no reservation for Lady Buclair.
00:09:54B-E-A-U-C-L-E-R-K.
00:09:57Uh-huh.
00:09:58Buclair?
00:09:59We call it Buclair.
00:10:01Yes.
00:10:03Excuse me.
00:10:05Please, English.
00:10:07Only a man who understands us women thoroughly could have written it.
00:10:11Thank you so much.
00:10:13It's divine.
00:10:14Thank you very much.
00:10:15How exciting.
00:10:16Love in six lessons.
00:10:17How did you come to think of the title?
00:10:19It just came to me tonight.
00:10:20Next, please.
00:10:22Oh, did you want it?
00:10:24It's mine.
00:10:25Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:10:27No, you don't have to stop.
00:10:29I wrote it.
00:10:31Golly.
00:10:33You don't like it?
00:10:34Oh, I do.
00:10:36But I haven't read it.
00:10:38Ah, de Fresne.
00:10:39How are you?
00:10:40Sir Cosmo.
00:10:41How delightful.
00:10:42I think I have not before had the pleasure of meeting your wife.
00:10:46My aunt.
00:10:47Monsieur de Fresne.
00:10:48Lady Christabel Becler.
00:10:50Enchanté, madame.
00:10:51Enchanté, monsieur.
00:10:52This is my niece, Joan Heseltine.
00:10:55Oh, those are my bags.
00:10:56How did you...
00:10:57Enchanté, mademoiselle.
00:10:58Did you have a good journey?
00:10:59Oh, yes.
00:11:00Thanks.
00:11:01Except we had a bit of a schmuzzle with the customs.
00:11:03Schmuzzle?
00:11:04What is that?
00:11:05Oh, dispute.
00:11:06Argument.
00:11:07I...
00:11:08Don't leave me.
00:11:09Allow me, sir.
00:11:12Goodbye, mademoiselle.
00:11:13Goodbye, mademoiselle.
00:11:15De Fresne.
00:11:16We'll probably meet later.
00:11:18That hat.
00:11:19Please, mademoiselle, do not take off that hat.
00:11:21That makes the picture charming.
00:11:25Golly.
00:11:26What the dickens is going on?
00:11:27Sir Brandon.
00:11:28Excuse me.
00:11:29I'm a political cartoonist and I saw the little sketch of your little daughter.
00:11:32My little...
00:11:33She's not my little daughter.
00:11:34She's my little cousin.
00:11:35I fail to see how a sketch of her can have any political significance.
00:11:37What did you say your name was?
00:11:38Felix Dembowski, please.
00:11:40Oh, Dembowski.
00:11:42Well, that's different.
00:11:43I'm glad to meet you.
00:11:44How do you do?
00:11:45Thank you, mademoiselle.
00:11:46May I look, please?
00:11:47Certainly.
00:11:54That was a capital sketch you did of old Halifax.
00:11:56I'm glad you liked it.
00:11:57Oh, by the way, you haven't done a funny one of me, have you?
00:11:59No.
00:12:00No?
00:12:01I should be delighted to do one.
00:12:02No, we must have some food together sometime.
00:12:03Certainly.
00:12:04You must promise not to draw me eating asparagus.
00:12:07Oh, Gilday.
00:12:08Sir?
00:12:09Well, tomorrow's a great day.
00:12:10Yes, sir.
00:12:11I've made all arrangements to keep in touch with London.
00:12:12Good.
00:12:34Hiya, Felix.
00:12:35Hello.
00:12:36Anything amusing this morning?
00:12:37No, the usual.
00:12:38I say, Felix, have you heard?
00:12:39Oh, what?
00:12:40The English have put down a motion in one of the committees.
00:12:42You'd never guess about what?
00:12:43No, I'm very bad at guessing.
00:12:45Birds.
00:12:46Birds?
00:12:47What's funny about birds?
00:12:48Come on, let's have a drink.
00:12:49Very good idea.
00:12:50My friend, you know what the English are?
00:12:52They are no more interested in birds than we are.
00:12:54No, I don't like all this secret diplomacy.
00:12:56If the English want to talk about some imperialistic scheme,
00:12:59why don't they come out with it in the open?
00:13:01Birds.
00:13:06Oh, hello, Mr. Dembowski.
00:13:08Good morning, good morning.
00:13:09How are the funny faces this morning?
00:13:11All right, all right.
00:13:12Just look round.
00:13:13There are plenty to choose from.
00:13:15Yes, indeed.
00:13:16Excuse me, you're looking very businesslike.
00:13:19Excuse me, I'm very frightened.
00:13:20It's my first time in Geneva.
00:13:22Are you coming into the meeting?
00:13:23Oh, no, no, no, thank you.
00:13:24Oh, I wish you were.
00:13:25If I'd see you making fun of them all with your pencil,
00:13:28it would cheer me up.
00:13:32I must go.
00:13:33Good luck.
00:13:35I do hope nobody's going to make a speech in Arabic.
00:13:38Catch wood.
00:13:43You go straight on and upstairs, then.
00:13:45But not me.
00:13:47Oh, Miss Woodson.
00:13:48How do you do, Miss Friggetonson?
00:13:50Oh, hi.
00:13:51You remember me at the conference at Copenhagen?
00:13:53Oh, yes.
00:13:54Are you well?
00:13:55I am myself, thank you.
00:14:04What's the latest, you know?
00:14:05We are batting, sir.
00:14:06Good.
00:14:07Well, try and let me know the lunch score.
00:14:08Yes, sir.
00:14:10You see the man with Sir Brandon?
00:14:11Yes.
00:14:12He is the linchpin of the whole scheme.
00:14:14Yes, but what is a scheme?
00:14:18At the moment, only the British know that.
00:14:34We should not have said so much until after the English have spoken.
00:14:49I talked, but I said nothing.
00:14:51We in the Balkans only desire peace,
00:14:53only desire beautiful eternal friendship with our good neighbors,
00:14:55only wish to placate our enemies,
00:14:57only long to cooperate sincerely with the world at large.
00:15:05Under the enlightened guidance of the Duce,
00:15:08Italy, conscious of its destiny,
00:15:13marches with the gaze facing the Latin sun,
00:15:18always ready to make a good action to a friend.
00:15:24Under the glorious leadership of the Duce,
00:15:26Italy, conscious of its destiny,
00:15:28marches forward looking at the latent sun,
00:15:30always ready to pat any good friend in the back.
00:15:48As my honorable Italian friend has said,
00:15:50the sun rises ever high on the horizon.
00:15:52We look forward with joyous expectation to noontide,
00:15:55when the sun is at its highest.
00:16:01Lady Christabel Buclair, who is new to us here at Geneva,
00:16:05will put forward the British case in support of this motion.
00:16:15I take it that all delegates here have at least the rudiments of ornithology at their fingertips.
00:16:21I shall not therefore need to dwell upon the habits and customs of British migratory birds.
00:16:28I will come straight to the point.
00:16:31The British government is no longer prepared to tolerate a state of affairs
00:16:35which the claims of both humanity and justice combine to condemn.
00:16:40What is she saying?
00:16:41I do not know exactly, but her tone is very strong.
00:16:45It's bluff.
00:16:46...become the prey of unscrupulous persons,
00:16:48who in some cases have invented the most barbarous and revolting methods
00:16:53of capturing and destroying them.
00:16:55Oh, the mere thought of it is sickening.
00:16:57To eat them as food.
00:17:00Well, this practice must cease forthwith.
00:17:15In future, any British bird going abroad for the winter,
00:17:19or returning home for the summer,
00:17:21will have the right to claim, by international law,
00:17:24the fullest possible protection from any offence committed against its person.
00:17:28I wish I knew what they were getting at.
00:17:29It is therefore suggested that sanctuary bases for our British birds
00:17:33should be established...
00:17:42What's the matter?
00:17:43It's a scandal. The British are asking for more territory.
00:17:46In conclusion, I would like to make a plea for action
00:17:50with regard to the wholesale destruction of seabirds.
00:17:53Something must be done about oil pollution of the sea.
00:18:03It delights me to see you all so interested in the cause of wild bird life.
00:18:08I thank you.
00:18:20I would like to add a rider to the last speaker's remarks.
00:18:24His Majesty's government will continue to leave no stone unturned.
00:18:28We'll continue to explore every avenue in their unremitting efforts
00:18:33to find a formula acceptable to all parties.
00:18:42France will in no circumstances consent to any hesty or ill-considered action
00:18:48that might lead to an international...
00:18:57I will give a thousand dollars to find out what the British are up to.
00:18:59But what's the game? Leave it to me.
00:19:01For a thousand dollars, I think we can get the necessary information.
00:19:03You cannot bribe the British.
00:19:04Leave it to me. There are other ways.
00:19:14That is a man for us. He's posing as a butler.
00:19:17Aha.
00:19:25What about her? Don't you think you would find her charming?
00:19:28Not her. For him, we want something young and fresher.
00:19:31Leave it to me. I understand love.
00:19:36How would you like to have dinner with a very nice man?
00:19:40You?
00:19:41Please don't joke. No.
00:19:43A man, a handsome, tall man.
00:19:46What would I have to do?
00:19:47You make him tall. You make him tell you what for he's here in Geneva.
00:19:51But for that, you need clothes, don't you?
00:19:53Leave it to me. Leave it to me.
00:19:54I'll change you into a red top.
00:20:16It's always the same abroad. Everything's done swimming in oil.
00:20:19Oh, yes. Naturally, yes.
00:20:26This is terrible. How soon can we go?
00:20:28Why? I am enjoying myself.
00:20:32Oh, you shocked me, my dear Dubovsky.
00:20:34She's only a schoolgirl.
00:20:36My dear Frissini, it is only natural that you should feel a little piqued,
00:20:40because you say it's only for me.
00:20:42If I were interested, we should see who she has eyes for.
00:20:47What was that dance?
00:20:49What were you doing?
00:20:50Oh, I was doing a sort of mixture, really.
00:20:58A little wine, mademoiselle?
00:21:00Thanks, but I think I'd better stick to this orangeade stuff.
00:21:03Quite correct, mademoiselle. Not to drink wine when one is so young.
00:21:08You love to play the sport, mademoiselle, do you not?
00:21:12Well, I quite like hockey.
00:21:14What is hockey?
00:21:16Did you hear that? He does not know what is hockey.
00:21:19Just imagine that.
00:21:20Yes, imagine it.
00:21:22Perhaps now will you tell me what is hockey?
00:21:25But certainly, my dear good old fellow.
00:21:27At playing hockey, you have to play on absolutely flat grass,
00:21:32in which are to be placed several hoops, of which there are six.
00:21:36Then you also have four balls of different colors.
00:21:39Then you have a club seat.
00:21:41No, no, that's not hockey, that's croquet.
00:21:44You look so very lonely.
00:21:46Oh? Did I?
00:21:49Have you some strange secrets, or...?
00:21:52No, I don't think so.
00:21:54I expect you have. You, English.
00:21:57You don't tell your secrets to anyone.
00:22:00I don't think I've got any secrets.
00:22:02Well, we shall see.
00:22:04Here, I didn't order...
00:22:05Oh, that's all right. It's on me.
00:22:08You know, in England, this would be highly irregular.
00:22:10But we're not in England now.
00:22:12Then you are still at school, mademoiselle.
00:22:14Yes, but I leave next term.
00:22:16Oh, then of course you must occasionally be thinking of other things than hockey.
00:22:21Oh, yes.
00:22:23I'm rather keen on tennis.
00:22:26No, no, I mean... I mean marriage.
00:22:29Oh, I'm never going to get married.
00:22:31Oh, you really must not say such things, mademoiselle.
00:22:34Even in jest.
00:22:35But I mean it.
00:22:36Why? You don't believe in love?
00:22:39I never said anything about love.
00:22:41Ah, I see it now.
00:22:43You love someone already, no?
00:22:45I didn't say so.
00:22:47And he doesn't love you? Yes, that's it?
00:22:50Yes.
00:22:52But you won't go and blab about it to Aunt Christopher now, will you?
00:22:54Oh, you insult me.
00:23:01You know, I think you're a very handsome man.
00:23:05Oh? Do you?
00:23:07Yes, and very interesting.
00:23:10Oh, surely not.
00:23:12Just now when you were dancing with de Freycinet, you were talking so very, very seriously.
00:23:16Was I? Yes, I watched you.
00:23:18You do not talk so to me.
00:23:20Oh, I'm so sorry. I was thinking.
00:23:22Of de Freycinet?
00:23:23Oh, no, not him.
00:23:25Huh? Of who?
00:23:27Oh, just somebody.
00:23:29He means much to you, this somebody, huh?
00:23:32Mm-hmm.
00:23:33You play at the hockey with him?
00:23:35Oh, no.
00:23:36No?
00:23:37Then it is real love you feel for him?
00:23:40Oh, I don't know about that.
00:23:42I just think he's gorgeous.
00:23:45I expect you could tell me a lot of things if you only wished.
00:23:49Now, what, for instance, are you doing here in Geneva?
00:23:54Oh, I'm just here with Sir Cosmo Brandon, and he's here on business.
00:23:59What business?
00:24:01I'm afraid I can't discuss my employer's affairs in public.
00:24:04No. No, of course not.
00:24:07Well, let's go.
00:24:09Go? Where?
00:24:11To some quiet, romantic spot.
00:24:13Romantic spot?
00:24:15Where we can be alone.
00:24:17Alone?
00:24:29What's the matter, mademoiselle?
00:24:31Nothing.
00:24:33That's my soul. It's Gilbert.
00:24:47Oh, look out!
00:24:59Now, this is really perfect.
00:25:01Yes.
00:25:03Now we can talk.
00:25:05Yes.
00:25:07Wouldn't you like to come and sit beside me?
00:25:09No, I'm quite comfortable where I am, thank you.
00:25:11Well, I shall come over to you.
00:25:13No, you'd better stay where you are. You'll quite upset the boat.
00:25:17You're quite sure you're all right, darling?
00:25:19Yes, quite sure, thank you.
00:25:21Oh, it's just a touch of me grime. I often get it myself.
00:25:25Ah, it's Gilbert.
00:25:27Gilbert! Have you forgotten yourself?
00:25:30I'm extremely sorry about this incident, milady.
00:25:33I don't understand it at all.
00:25:43Well, there's a pretty how-do-do.
00:25:45Poor old Gilbert. You know I think the fellow's a trifle bottled.
00:25:47He isn't. I think that's a disgraceful thing to say.
00:25:50An disgusting thing to say.
00:25:52After all, why shouldn't he go out with a girl if he wants to?
00:25:55Oh, no reason at all, my dear.
00:25:57But he seems to have done rather more than just go out with a girl.
00:26:00She apparently thought it would be safer to swim home.
00:26:02I think you're both being mean and beastly about it.
00:26:06I'm glad this has happened. It's taught me a lesson.
00:26:09I know he's done nothing to be ashamed of.
00:26:11He's worth more than everybody else put together.
00:26:14And I love him.
00:26:16You what?
00:26:18Who do you love, dear?
00:26:20I love Tom.
00:26:21Who?
00:26:22Tom.
00:26:23Tom Gilbey.
00:26:24Oh, Tom Gilbey.
00:26:27Tom Gilbey?
00:26:28Yes, Tom Gilbey.
00:26:30But you can't love Gilbey.
00:26:32Why can't I? I do.
00:26:33Well, we all, of course, love Gilbey, but you can't love Gilbey.
00:26:37Don't you, Cosmo?
00:26:38No, I'm just about...
00:26:39It's ridiculous.
00:26:40I knew exactly what you both say, but it doesn't make the slightest bit of difference.
00:26:45I love Tom.
00:26:46And I'll go on loving him until the day I die.
00:26:54Good night.
00:26:58Well, what are we going to do about it?
00:27:00I don't know.
00:27:02Dash nuisance, isn't it?
00:27:03Yeah.
00:27:04I suppose we could send Gilbey away.
00:27:06Oh, no, Cosmo, you can't do that. He's been with us for years.
00:27:10I know. We'll send Joan to stay with Aunt Mary at Dover.
00:27:13Joan's been with us quite a long time, too.
00:27:15Don't joke about it. She's in very bad taste.
00:27:21Good evening.
00:27:28A bit cold on the lake tonight, wasn't it, Gilbey?
00:27:30A trifle chilly, sir, yes.
00:27:32And what was the incident you referred to when you came into the hall with...
00:27:36With the young person, my lady?
00:27:38I'd much prefer not to discuss it.
00:27:40I quite understand.
00:27:48Anyway, I'm glad to see you're settling down so well abroad.
00:27:50I'm afraid that's not altogether true, sir.
00:27:52I'm happy to be of assistance to you and Her Ladyship here in Geneva.
00:27:55But I've never made any secret of the fact I don't quite hold with abroad.
00:27:58No, you don't, eh?
00:28:00I see your point, Gilbey.
00:28:03Good night, Mr Bell.
00:28:04Good night, Cosmo.
00:28:05Good night, my lady.
00:28:06Good night, Gilbey.
00:28:07Good night, sir.
00:28:08Good night, sir.
00:28:25Good night, sir.
00:28:56Good afternoon, Grose.
00:28:57Good afternoon, Grose.
00:28:58Oh, how nice to be home again.
00:29:00Afternoon, Frederick.
00:29:01Afternoon, Frederick.
00:29:02I'm afraid the foreigners will never understand us.
00:29:04You wish to see someone?
00:29:05Yes, the family.
00:29:06I beg your pardon?
00:29:07What is it, Gilbey?
00:29:08I've brought the gas masks.
00:29:10Oh, yes, I'm sure they're very nice, but you really should go to the tradesman's entrance.
00:29:15Look here, I'm the local warden.
00:29:16Hold this and get a chance.
00:29:18I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't.
00:29:20I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't.
00:29:22Look here, I'm the local warden.
00:29:24Hold this and get a chair, please.
00:29:26If the war comes and it looks like it, you'll be very grateful for this.
00:29:29I'm quite sure I shall.
00:29:31Well, what do you want me to do?
00:29:33I must try one on.
00:29:34Please sit down.
00:29:35This is all very theatrical.
00:29:37What's your name?
00:29:38Quill, madam.
00:29:39Quill, Quill.
00:29:40I'm dearly.
00:29:41That's right.
00:29:42Now, under the chin first.
00:29:43Oh, yes.
00:29:44Now, that was a slip.
00:29:45Let's all pull together.
00:29:46That's better.
00:29:47Now, take a deep breath.
00:29:50I can't breathe.
00:29:51Breathe in.
00:29:52Breathe out.
00:29:54That's right.
00:29:56♪
00:30:20Quill.
00:30:21♪
00:30:32Come in.
00:30:38Oh, Miss Joan.
00:30:40Yes.
00:30:41I do hope you don't mind my coming in, but I thought I'd like to come and say goodbye to him.
00:30:46Well, that's very kind of you.
00:30:48I greatly appreciate it.
00:30:52I'm very sorry you're going.
00:30:54So am I.
00:30:56I do hope I've given you every satisfaction.
00:31:01Oh, yes.
00:31:04The house will seem quite different without you.
00:31:06Oh, I'm sure you'll find my grandfather a very experienced man.
00:31:10He's 72.
00:31:15You will write and tell us how you're getting on, won't you?
00:31:18Yes, Miss.
00:31:19Thank you, Miss.
00:31:21♪
00:31:31Oh, well, that seems about all, doesn't it?
00:31:33Yes, Miss.
00:31:36Goodbye.
00:31:37Goodbye, Miss.
00:31:42Take care of yourself.
00:31:45♪
00:31:55Well?
00:31:56Well what, Miss Bobbie?
00:31:58♪
00:32:04Did she tell you anything?
00:32:05Who? Miss Joan?
00:32:07No, nothing in particular. Why?
00:32:09What a silly ass she is.
00:32:11Do you think she's good looking?
00:32:13Yes, I think she'll be a remarkably handsome girl when she grows up.
00:32:15But she is grown up.
00:32:18Do you think someone will want to marry her someday?
00:32:20Yes, I shouldn't be surprised.
00:32:22I mean, do you think she'll make someone a good wife?
00:32:24Yes, an admirable wife.
00:32:26Good. Well, bye-bye.
00:32:28Goodbye.
00:32:29Wish I could be a soldier?
00:32:30Yes, I wish you could.
00:32:33Joan, Joan, Joan, you'll never guess what Gilby's told me.
00:32:36No, what?
00:32:37Well, he's as good as admitted that he is in love with you.
00:32:40What?
00:32:41Yes, and he says you'll make a fine wife and that you're remarkably handsome
00:32:44and that you're the most beautiful woman he's...
00:32:46♪
00:32:58Gilby, Gilby!
00:32:59♪
00:33:04Hi!
00:33:05Hi!
00:33:06Gilby! Gilby!
00:33:08Yes, Miss?
00:33:09I've got something to tell you.
00:33:10Yes, Miss?
00:33:11Yes, but I can't tell you here. Isn't there somewhere we could go?
00:33:13Well, if you care for a cup of tea, Miss,
00:33:15there's a place called Foljamb's Bannery where the tea cakes are excellent.
00:33:18♪
00:33:27Now then, Miss Joan, what is it you wish to say to me?
00:33:32Oh, dear.
00:33:33If it's anything confidential, Miss Joan,
00:33:35don't be afraid of being overheard.
00:33:37Miss Foljamb is the soul of discretion.
00:33:39Oh, I don't care if Miss Foljamb or anybody else hears.
00:33:43Everybody seems to know about it anyway.
00:33:46Except you.
00:33:48And what is that, Miss?
00:33:52I love you.
00:33:54Oh, dear, dear, dear, dear, dear.
00:33:57Thank you, Miss Foljamb.
00:33:58Not at all, Mr. Gilby.
00:33:59These little things are sent to try us.
00:34:01Yes, indeed, yes.
00:34:05What did you say, Miss?
00:34:06You heard quite well what I said.
00:34:08I said, oh, no, no, please don't go and choke again.
00:34:11I said I love you.
00:34:16Dear me.
00:34:17Is that all you have to say?
00:34:19Dear me?
00:34:23Miss Joan, this is highly irregular.
00:34:26Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:34:28But I can't help the way I feel, can I?
00:34:30No, Miss Joan, no, of course you can't, but...
00:34:33But are you sure you really feel...
00:34:35What you say you feel?
00:34:37You are very young.
00:34:39I'm old enough to know that I love a man so much that it...
00:34:43It gives me a pain every time I look at him.
00:34:47Dear me.
00:34:48Oh, do stop saying dear me and tell me what you feel about me.
00:34:52Bobby said...
00:34:53Whatever Miss Bobby says is probably untrue.
00:34:56Oh?
00:34:58I feel about you as any domestic servant should feel about his employer.
00:35:02As any domestic servant should feel about his employer's niece.
00:35:06Now, don't say we're going to be kept apart by some idiotic thing like...
00:35:11Class distinction?
00:35:13Class distinctions are not idiotic.
00:35:16There isn't any hope for me at all?
00:35:19No, Miss Joan, I'm afraid not.
00:35:21Would you care for a delicious toasted sultana?
00:35:24Oh, please go away.
00:35:26Sir.
00:35:28You shouldn't be rude to Miss Fulger.
00:35:32What's Miss Fulger to you?
00:35:35Nothing.
00:35:37Is there any woman in your life?
00:35:39No.
00:35:41Then I shan't give up hope.
00:35:44Very well, Miss Joan.
00:36:02THE END
00:36:33Is this London?
00:36:34Yes, ma'am, it's still here.
00:36:41Oh, what do I do?
00:36:43All refugees must report to their local police station immediately on arrival.
00:36:47Oh.
00:36:51Oh.
00:36:53Oh.
00:36:55Oh.
00:36:57Oh.
00:36:59Oh.
00:37:00Oh.
00:37:02Monsieur Le Fressinet.
00:37:04Good morning, madame.
00:37:06Don't you remember me? I translated for you in Copenhagen.
00:37:09Oh, yes, I remember.
00:37:11How are you?
00:37:13Perhaps you will translate for me here.
00:37:15If I'm allowed to stay.
00:37:17Of course you will be.
00:37:19I have such troubles with my passport.
00:37:21No, never mind. Everything will be all right.
00:37:23We're in England now, you know.
00:37:25Finally, I asked you here to the Foreign Office
00:37:27because we're most anxious to make the stay of all these brave people
00:37:30coming to our shores as pleasant as possible.
00:37:32Hear, hear.
00:37:34Let us do everything in our power to organize every kind of help.
00:37:37Canteens, welfare centers, information bureau, clubs.
00:37:40Sanctuaries for friendly birds of passage.
00:37:42Yes, sanctuaries, if you like.
00:37:44And homes.
00:37:46Our foreign friends must be made to feel at home.
00:37:48You don't mean that too literally, I hope.
00:37:51After all, we don't want London turned into a sort of...
00:37:54well, Paris.
00:37:55I'm very fond of Paris myself.
00:37:57Quite.
00:37:59But certain aspects of Parisian life of which I've heard
00:38:02would, for instance, be most undesirable if applied to London.
00:38:05I refer to such notorious practices as dancing on tables in restaurants
00:38:10and drinking champagne under the actress's shoes.
00:38:13I think your information on Parisian customs
00:38:15may be a little out of date, Mr. Spagat.
00:38:18I think it's utterly wrong to condemn the foreigners' code of morality
00:38:22merely because it doesn't conform with one's own.
00:38:24We must be broad-minded and tolerant.
00:38:26Remember, these fellows are our guests,
00:38:28and we must treat them as such.
00:38:43Do have another of these, Cosmo.
00:38:45Thanks, Christabel.
00:38:47I love these cress sandwiches.
00:38:49I wish they had some egg in them.
00:38:50Come in.
00:38:52What is it, Gilby?
00:38:54Mr. Gilby is here to see you, Your Ladyship.
00:38:57Mr. Gilby? I don't know any Mr. Gilby.
00:38:59Mr. Gilby had the honor of being your ladyship's butler.
00:39:02Oh, good gracious, your grandson.
00:39:04I suppose he's on leave.
00:39:06Well, don't stand there, man.
00:39:08Bring him in, bring him in.
00:39:10Well, that is nice.
00:39:13Come in, Gilby.
00:39:15How are you?
00:39:17Good afternoon, Lady Christabel.
00:39:18I'm on a week's leave.
00:39:20Good afternoon, sir.
00:39:22How are you, sir?
00:39:24Sit down, man, sit down and have some tea.
00:39:28We've no army burdens,
00:39:30but these sandwiches are quite nice.
00:39:32Thank you very much.
00:39:34Gracious, you're an officer.
00:39:36Yes.
00:39:38Well, they said I knew how to run things,
00:39:40so they put me in charge of supplies.
00:39:42Very sensible of you, very.
00:39:44Get me some more hot water, will you, Gilby?
00:39:46Yes, of course.
00:39:48Oh, it's a very nice room.
00:39:50I've often thought about it.
00:39:52How is the rest of the family?
00:39:54Well, it's grown considerably since you were last here.
00:39:57Grown?
00:39:59Yes.
00:40:01I've turned the house into a sanctuary for birds of passage.
00:40:03Oh.
00:40:05Any boy or girl belonging to our brave allies is welcome.
00:40:07Whoopee, look who's here.
00:40:09Are we?
00:40:11Coo, a second lieutenant.
00:40:13Gently, my dear.
00:40:15We are not properly organized yet,
00:40:16but you'll see for yourself.
00:40:18Come on.
00:40:28Well, war certainly does change things.
00:40:30None of them can speak a word of English,
00:40:32but that hasn't stopped them from getting girls.
00:40:34I don't know how they do it unless they say nothing.
00:40:36Excuse me, please.
00:40:38How do you say the?
00:40:40The?
00:40:42Again, please.
00:40:44You try.
00:40:48It's very catchy.
00:40:50I can say good morning in nine different languages.
00:40:52What good does it do me?
00:40:54Now, if I was four years older,
00:40:56do you think the war would last four more years?
00:40:58I hope not.
00:41:00They're very nice and very charming.
00:41:02They kiss your hand.
00:41:04One even kissed mine, but I think he was short-sighted.
00:41:06And they send you flowers.
00:41:08Is Joan up here?
00:41:10Yes, she's up here all right.
00:41:12Well, what do you mean?
00:41:14Go and see.
00:41:16She's fallen asleep,
00:41:18and it appears that the vehicle
00:41:20is now out of control.
00:41:22Is that clear?
00:41:24Yes, General.
00:41:26Well, now for pronunciation.
00:41:28Repeat after me.
00:41:30How now brown cow?
00:41:32How now brown cow?
00:41:34How now brown cow?
00:41:36How now brown cow?
00:41:38Quiet, quiet, quiet.
00:41:40That was very bad indeed.
00:41:42How now brown cow?
00:41:46How now brown cow?
00:41:51That's better.
00:41:53If you keep it up in a few months,
00:41:55you'll be speaking perfect English.
00:41:57Even you, Felix.
00:41:59If you stop doodling.
00:42:01You see my dear good old Frisine?
00:42:03She has eyes only for me.
00:42:05My dear Dombovsky,
00:42:07Mademoiselle Joan has made it quite clear
00:42:09that she has eyes only for the best pupil.
00:42:11And the best pupil, it's me.
00:42:13You wait.
00:42:14We shall see.
00:42:16Felix.
00:42:18Joan.
00:42:20Shh, just wait one minute please.
00:42:22For tomorrow I want you to do exercise 12 on page 53.
00:42:25It contains two words
00:42:27that you are supposed to have learned today.
00:42:29Sesquipedalian and phantasmagoria.
00:42:32That'll be all for today.
00:42:34We meet at the same time tomorrow.
00:42:44Could we go to the pictures tonight, please?
00:42:46No, Felix.
00:42:48Francois got eight marks out of ten.
00:42:50You only got six.
00:42:52Bad luck, Felix.
00:42:54Joan.
00:42:56Tom.
00:42:58Tom, how wonderful to see you.
00:43:01I can hardly believe it.
00:43:03Well, it's true.
00:43:05Don't you look nice?
00:43:07Do I?
00:43:09Do you remember I told you
00:43:11you'd make a success of being a soldier?
00:43:12Oh, Tom, come and sit down
00:43:14and tell me all about yourself.
00:43:16Oh, it's all been such a wizard show,
00:43:18I don't know where to begin.
00:43:20My first CO, he wasn't a bad fellow,
00:43:22though a bit of an old dugout.
00:43:24Well, he spotted me, so off I went to Optium.
00:43:26That's the office of the training unit.
00:43:28Now I've got the most wonderful lot of blokes with me.
00:43:30Oh, and I've got a first-class batman, Lang.
00:43:32He's one of the Berkshire Langs.
00:43:34Oh, of course, for the moment,
00:43:36I have to share him with a brother officer.
00:43:38Oh, look, I'm talking about me all the time.
00:43:40How are you?
00:43:42Oh, my goodness, how you've changed.
00:43:44Mademoiselle, pardon.
00:43:46I have written a report in English for the War Office
00:43:48which I would like to read to you.
00:43:50Oh, Francois, I'd be delighted to hear it, but later.
00:43:54I think you will find it quite faultless, you know.
00:43:56I'm sure I shall.
00:44:00I'm so sorry, Tom. Go on.
00:44:02Look, Jo, it's impossible to talk here.
00:44:04Let's go out.
00:44:06Where can we go?
00:44:08To a place that should mean a lot to both of us.
00:44:10Come on.
00:44:12Oh, the tea cakes.
00:44:14My, how well you're looking.
00:44:16Thank you, Miss Fargeant.
00:44:24Now, Joan,
00:44:26I've got something to tell you.
00:44:28Yes, Tom?
00:44:30During the past year,
00:44:32I've been thinking about you quite a lot, you know.
00:44:35I've been thinking about you too, Tom.
00:44:37Yes, of course.
00:44:39Well, now, since we last sat here,
00:44:40things have changed quite a bit, you know.
00:44:42Yes, they have.
00:44:44Yes, I'm an officer now, not that's anything in itself,
00:44:46but the army's done quite a lot for me
00:44:48and, well, broadening my views on things
00:44:51and giving me bigger ideas.
00:44:53Yes, I see that.
00:44:55After the war, I'm not going back to Butling.
00:44:57After the war, there won't be any Butling to go back to.
00:44:59No, that's true too.
00:45:01Since I got my commission,
00:45:03I've been thinking things over very seriously,
00:45:05and I decided...
00:45:06Well, I wonder if you can guess what I decided.
00:45:11Yes, I can.
00:45:13There's no need to say anything
00:45:15until you've got over the shock.
00:45:17But I have got over the shock
00:45:19and I must say something.
00:45:21Then what is that, my dear?
00:45:24I don't love you.
00:45:29Dear, dear, dear, dear, dear.
00:45:31Thank you, Miss Folger.
00:45:33Not at all, Mr. Tom.
00:45:34Thank you, Miss Folger.
00:45:36Not at all, Mr. Gilday.
00:45:40What did you say?
00:45:42I said I don't love you.
00:45:45You don't love me?
00:45:47No, I'm so sorry, Tom.
00:45:50But you said you did.
00:45:52Yes, I know.
00:45:55Oh, Tom, I feel like a villain
00:45:57in a Victorian melodrama.
00:45:59You mean a villainess?
00:46:01No, I mean a villain.
00:46:02It was I who made all the running.
00:46:04I've been a cat.
00:46:06I've trifled with your affections.
00:46:08Well, yes, you have, rather.
00:46:10I'm so sorry, Tom,
00:46:12but I can't help the way I feel, can I?
00:46:14No, you said that to me once before.
00:46:16I did love you, Tom. Really, I did.
00:46:18But you see,
00:46:20what I loved so much about you
00:46:22was that you were so cold and inhuman
00:46:24and godlike.
00:46:27Oh, I don't know.
00:46:29So out of reach.
00:46:31Well, now you're a second lieutenant.
00:46:33What's wrong with being a second lieutenant?
00:46:35Oh, there's nothing wrong with it.
00:46:37There's nothing inhuman and godlike
00:46:39about a second lieutenant.
00:46:41I know hundreds of second lieutenants
00:46:43and they all look exactly like you.
00:46:48I see.
00:46:50Can't I tempt you with a delicious hot toasted scone?
00:46:52No, you can't.
00:46:57I think this passport
00:46:58it isn't really a passport.
00:47:00What is it, then?
00:47:02Well, you see,
00:47:04it was sold to me by a very nice gentleman.
00:47:06Nice gentleman?
00:47:08What nice gentleman?
00:47:10Well, I don't really know him.
00:47:12Oh, I mean, I do know him, only I don't...
00:47:14Excuse the man now.
00:47:16I would regulation desire
00:47:18to stamp decidedly pass.
00:47:20What's that?
00:47:23He wishes to know whether he need register again
00:47:25in view of the fact that he's done so.
00:47:26If he's done so already,
00:47:28there's no need to do so again.
00:47:30Much thanks.
00:47:32Now, miss, can you explain to me this document?
00:47:34Yes, I can.
00:47:37I can't.
00:47:40Well, well, well.
00:47:42Good morning, Lieutenant Fresnet.
00:47:44Good morning, Sergeant.
00:47:46Oh, Monsieur de Fresnet.
00:47:48What are you looking so miserable about?
00:47:50The young lady's passport isn't in order, sir.
00:47:52Well, if your passport is not in order,
00:47:54we'll get you one from the police.
00:47:56From the foreign office?
00:47:58That would be all right, Sergeant.
00:48:00It's quite simple.
00:48:02Is it, really?
00:48:04Lieutenant says so, miss.
00:48:06You don't need to worry anymore.
00:48:08I have a friend at the foreign office.
00:48:10How can I ever thank you?
00:48:12Will you see Lieutenant Fresnet, sir?
00:48:14Yes, show him in.
00:48:16Ah, how are you, Fresnet?
00:48:18How do you do?
00:48:20Capital to see you here.
00:48:22I understand you had a very thrilling escape.
00:48:24Oh, many had more so than I.
00:48:26You're at the British headquarters now.
00:48:28For the time being, yes.
00:48:30I am liaison officer with the Air Ministry, you know.
00:48:32The pity is my English is so terrible.
00:48:34Oh, it's not terrible at all, my dear fellow.
00:48:36It's just your pronunciation.
00:48:38Oh, I know, I know.
00:48:40But I work hard.
00:48:42Already I improve a little, I think.
00:48:44Think?
00:48:46Think.
00:48:48Think.
00:48:50Think.
00:48:54Now, what can I do for you?
00:48:56I have a girl.
00:48:58A girl?
00:49:00Yes, a girl.
00:49:02Do I pronounce wrongly?
00:49:04No, no, you pronounced it perfectly.
00:49:06Sit down.
00:49:10So you want to see me about a girl, a friend of yours?
00:49:12Precisely.
00:49:14She's in trouble with her passport, you know.
00:49:16It's a very small matter.
00:49:18But she asked me for my assistance.
00:49:20Naturally.
00:49:22Why naturally?
00:49:23They should ask for your assistance
00:49:25seeing she's a friend of yours?
00:49:27I think you don't quite understand, Sir Cosmo.
00:49:30This girl is only a friend.
00:49:32I understand perfectly.
00:49:34Perfectly?
00:49:36This girl is the merest acquaintance.
00:49:38My dear chap, there's no need to go into it.
00:49:41I quite understand.
00:49:43I don't think you do.
00:49:45Frasier,
00:49:47I was at our embassy in Paris for three years.
00:49:50I was at Buenos Aires for five.
00:49:51I know something about life.
00:49:53But I don't see what your knowing about life
00:49:55has to do with it.
00:49:57My dear fellow, there's no need to get so nervous.
00:49:59I assure you this little matter
00:50:01will be handled with the greatest discretion.
00:50:03Yes, but...
00:50:05Just give me the papers and I'll see what can be done.
00:50:07Well, here are the papers
00:50:09and as you will see, they explain themselves.
00:50:11Ah, yes.
00:50:13Yes, well, don't you worry.
00:50:15If you need any more information, I can...
00:50:17No, I don't think that'll be necessary.
00:50:19Well, goodbye.
00:50:21Goodbye.
00:50:23Goodbye, and thank you.
00:50:27Look into that, will you, Jordan?
00:50:29There's your dress, 23 Traverse Street.
00:50:31Yes, Sir Cosmo.
00:50:33Curious fellows, these Frenchmen,
00:50:35always getting themselves mixed up with girls.
00:50:37Yes, Sir Cosmo.
00:50:39So I wish I knew how they did it.
00:50:41I've got a real passport.
00:50:43The British are very kind.
00:50:45Oh, yes.
00:50:47But they do not understand us, you know.
00:50:49If you're a Frenchman,
00:50:51and then a razzle-dazzle...
00:50:53That's only because they know you
00:50:55as the author of Love in Six Lessons.
00:50:57You have read it?
00:50:58Yes.
00:50:59You like it?
00:51:00No, I don't agree with one word of it.
00:51:02Nor do I.
00:51:04Did you write it from experience?
00:51:06No, no, imagination.
00:51:14I want you all to take your partners for the dance.
00:51:17All those who have not yet been introduced,
00:51:19please hold up their hands.
00:51:21Well, now, come and meet, two at a time.
00:51:23Lieutenant Durand from Belgium and...
00:51:26Where are we?
00:51:28Miss Peggy Duncan from Streatham.
00:51:30How do you do?
00:51:32Flight Lieutenant Grant from Bournemouth and...
00:51:34Where are we?
00:51:36Mademoiselle Michelle Boulanger from France.
00:51:38How do you do?
00:51:40Major Jensen from Norway.
00:51:42And Miss Lavinia Frey from Littlehampton.
00:51:44How do you do?
00:51:46I think I'm doing very well.
00:51:48Captain Pruslowski from Poland.
00:51:49And Miss Elise Batter-Jones from Kensington.
00:51:51How do you do?
00:51:53Please.
00:51:54What?
00:51:55Please.
00:51:56Oh, yes, I see.
00:51:57Rather.
00:51:59Captain Van Duren from Holland.
00:52:01And Miss Vera Hedgelessmite from Milton Mowbray.
00:52:03How do you do?
00:52:05I'm going to enjoy telling you.
00:52:07Now, let the dance begin.
00:52:09Gilby.
00:52:17Gilby, you must dance with me.
00:52:20You going for shooting much?
00:52:22Please.
00:52:23Shooting.
00:52:24Bang, bang, bang.
00:52:26Germans.
00:52:27Yes, please.
00:52:30I say that's totally decent of you.
00:52:40Excuse me.
00:52:41It's my turn.
00:52:42Say sesquipedalian.
00:52:44Sesquipedalian.
00:52:45Password?
00:52:46Sesquipedalian.
00:52:47Sorry.
00:52:48Hello, Tarfer.
00:52:49Hello.
00:52:50I really don't know how he does.
00:52:52How do you say that?
00:52:53Sesquipedalian.
00:52:54I never do.
00:52:57I will tell you a little joke.
00:52:59Oh, please don't.
00:53:00I have no sense of humor at all.
00:53:02Well, then, I will explain the joke to you.
00:53:19I shouldn't give up hope.
00:53:20Play them at their own game.
00:53:22What is their own game?
00:53:23Well, take a look around.
00:53:25Just a matter of continental technique.
00:53:27Oh.
00:53:28Thanks.
00:53:31I didn't wait any longer.
00:53:32I took to my feet and ran.
00:53:34That was a good idea.
00:53:36Hello, Gilby.
00:53:37How are you now, please?
00:53:38I'm not too happy, please.
00:53:40She does not love you?
00:53:41She does not.
00:53:42That's very sad.
00:53:43Could I have an enormous whiskey, please?
00:53:45When a woman says no,
00:53:46she means yes.
00:53:48Oh, yes, please.
00:53:49Women are like violin.
00:53:50You either play well
00:53:51or you do not play well.
00:53:53Well, it's high time I had a few lessons.
00:53:54How do I start?
00:53:55First, you send her flowers.
00:53:57Then, then you take her hand.
00:53:59So.
00:54:00Oh.
00:54:01You hold the hand
00:54:02and you give it a kiss.
00:54:03So.
00:54:04Oh, I see, yes.
00:54:05And then, you go to the gramophone
00:54:07and you put the music on.
00:54:09Parlez-moi d'amour.
00:54:11You know.
00:54:12And then, you dim the light.
00:54:13And then, you look into her eyes
00:54:15a long, long time.
00:54:17About how long?
00:54:18Oh, a long time.
00:54:19And then, you give a big sigh like this.
00:54:21And then, I say 99, I suppose.
00:54:23No.
00:54:24Then, you offer her a drink.
00:54:26A drink?
00:54:27Yes.
00:54:28And then, you say,
00:54:29my soul is curiously moved.
00:54:31My soul is what?
00:54:32Curiously moved
00:54:33or any other kind
00:54:34of nice romantic rubbish.
00:54:36Women like lies.
00:54:38I'm afraid I'm not a very good liar.
00:54:40It does not matter.
00:54:41Say something amusing,
00:54:42something gay.
00:54:43Make a little joke.
00:54:44Oh, make a little joke.
00:54:45Yes.
00:54:46By now, you have got her
00:54:47on the sofa, you know.
00:54:48Oh, have I?
00:54:49Yes.
00:54:50And then, you come nearer to her.
00:54:51Nearer still.
00:54:52Yes.
00:54:53And then, you whisper something
00:54:54in her little ear.
00:54:55Oh.
00:54:56What happens next?
00:54:57Then, she will kiss you.
00:54:58She will say
00:54:59she will love you always.
00:55:01Well, that doesn't sound
00:55:02very difficult.
00:55:03Try it sometime.
00:55:04Yes.
00:55:05Yes, I think perhaps I will.
00:55:08Thanks.
00:55:11We have a drink
00:55:12to his success, no?
00:55:13Yes, go.
00:55:15Joan.
00:55:16Yes.
00:55:17I must see you urgently.
00:55:18Oh, what about?
00:55:19It's about something
00:55:20very important.
00:55:21Well, let's go in here.
00:55:22Yes.
00:55:31What's the matter, Tom?
00:55:32Have I got a smudge?
00:55:33No, no.
00:55:35May I even gaze
00:55:36into your eyes?
00:55:37Well, not like that.
00:55:38Why not?
00:55:39It looks so silly.
00:55:41Oh.
00:55:43Shall we go and sit down?
00:55:44Hmm.
00:55:52Joan.
00:55:53Hmm?
00:55:54Do you care for flowers?
00:55:55Yes, very much.
00:55:57Oh.
00:55:58Well, if I'd have known,
00:55:59I'd have brought you some.
00:56:01Oh, that's all right, Tom.
00:56:04Oh!
00:56:05What?
00:56:06What?
00:56:07What are you trying to do?
00:56:08Break my finger?
00:56:09Oh, good heavens, no.
00:56:11Tom.
00:56:12What on earth's the matter with you?
00:56:14You look as if you were in great pain.
00:56:16Yes.
00:56:17I am in great pain.
00:56:19Oh, something's eaten.
00:56:20Oh, no, no.
00:56:22It's
00:56:23my soul.
00:56:25Oh, what's the matter with your soul?
00:56:27It's
00:56:28curiously moved.
00:56:29Is it?
00:56:32Well, isn't there something
00:56:33you can do about it?
00:56:34No, no, no.
00:56:35You don't understand.
00:56:36A little music.
00:56:41As a practical farmer,
00:56:42I reckon cows should be handled
00:56:44with special care and understanding.
00:56:52Make a little joke.
00:56:58Uh, Joan.
00:56:59Ha, ha, ha.
00:57:00Have you heard the story
00:57:01of the Archdeacon and the Parrot?
00:57:03Yes.
00:57:05Oh.
00:57:06It was funny, wasn't it?
00:57:07Can I get you a drink?
00:57:09Oh, yes, Tom.
00:57:10I'd love a ginger ale.
00:57:11A ginger ale?
00:57:13A ginger ale, yes.
00:57:14Of course, I'll get it for you
00:57:15in a minute.
00:57:16Tom.
00:57:17What is the matter with you?
00:57:19Nothing.
00:57:24Can I whisper something
00:57:25in your ear?
00:57:26Yes.
00:57:30Dim the light.
00:57:31What did you say?
00:57:33I said,
00:57:34dim the light.
00:57:35What did you say?
00:57:37What did you say?
00:57:38Nothing, nothing.
00:57:41Oh!
00:57:47I didn't think anybody
00:57:48could be so childish.
00:57:57Farce-wise top,
00:57:58with nine marks out of ten.
00:58:02My dear Captain,
00:58:03it's really quite simple
00:58:04if you practice
00:58:05your irregular verbs.
00:58:09Every day he's getting
00:58:10better and better.
00:58:11I don't know how he does it.
00:58:13I really don't know
00:58:14how he does it.
00:58:15The tenor has lost
00:58:17his chest notes
00:58:19and will have to finish
00:58:21in falsetto.
00:58:22Tenor, not tenor.
00:58:24Tenor.
00:58:25Chest, not chest.
00:58:27Chest.
00:58:28Good.
00:58:29Now the next one.
00:58:30The postilion has become
00:58:32The postilion has been struck
00:58:34by lightning
00:58:36and is unable
00:58:37to continue the journey.
00:58:39Good, you improve every day.
00:58:41I see that in England
00:58:42one must be prepared
00:58:43for every eventuality.
00:58:45Eventuality.
00:58:46Eventuality.
00:58:47Actually, these phrases
00:58:48are not so much
00:58:49for uses for pronunciation.
00:58:50Well, that will be all for today.
00:58:51I've got another pimp to come.
00:58:53Well,
00:58:54I'll see you tomorrow afternoon.
00:58:55Yes, oh, Monsieur de Fresinet,
00:58:57you've been so kind
00:58:58about my passport trouble.
00:58:59May I ask you another favor?
00:59:01Certainly.
00:59:02It's that I'm terribly anxious
00:59:04to join the Free Norwegian Forces
00:59:05and there is another entry
00:59:07needed in my passport
00:59:08and I thought perhaps
00:59:10your friend at the foreign office?
00:59:12Ah, yes, my friend, yes.
00:59:14Very well, Mademoiselle,
00:59:16I shall ask him.
00:59:17It is a lot of trouble, is it?
00:59:18No, no, it's not that.
00:59:19You know, it's only that
00:59:20my friend appears to think
00:59:22that every foreigner
00:59:24is a bluebird.
00:59:25Beard.
00:59:26Ah, beard, yes,
00:59:27naturally, a bluebird.
00:59:29Nevertheless, I shall ask him
00:59:31tomorrow afternoon.
00:59:32Goodbye, Mademoiselle.
00:59:34Now you, Felix.
00:59:39The tenor has
00:59:41lost his chest notes
00:59:43and will have to
00:59:44finish in falsetto.
00:59:46No, no.
00:59:47Francois, you show him.
00:59:49The tenor
00:59:50has lost his chest notes
00:59:52and will have to finish
00:59:53in falsetto.
00:59:54There you are.
00:59:55You see, it's quite simple
00:59:56when you take a little trouble.
00:59:58Excuse me, please.
01:00:01Francois,
01:00:03meals which are prepared
01:00:04at home
01:00:05are tastier
01:00:06and cheaper
01:00:07than at a restaurant.
01:00:10Tea, please, Bunty.
01:00:11Very good, sir.
01:00:12What I really need
01:00:13is a glass of cheese stuff.
01:00:14Oh, what's that?
01:00:15Polish whiskey.
01:00:16Oh.
01:00:17It's yellow.
01:00:18Oh.
01:00:19Oh,
01:00:20that man is much
01:00:21too clever for me.
01:00:22I'm just finished.
01:00:23I can't pronounce anything.
01:00:24Oh, cheerful boy,
01:00:25you speak English in time?
01:00:26Perhaps,
01:00:27when I'm a very, very
01:00:28dirty old man.
01:00:31Oh.
01:00:49Mr. Felix Dembowski.
01:00:52Miss Knudsen.
01:00:53Miss Brigitte Knudsen.
01:00:55It is a small world.
01:00:57Yes,
01:00:58but I'm afraid
01:00:59I came to the wrong address.
01:01:00Oh, it doesn't matter.
01:01:01I'm so delighted to see you.
01:01:03So am I,
01:01:04but I'm afraid it does matter
01:01:05because I'm looking
01:01:06for an English teacher.
01:01:07That's me.
01:01:08That is you.
01:01:09Come right in.
01:01:10Oh, that is charming.
01:01:12Lieutenant Frezenator.
01:01:14How do you do, Sir Cosmo?
01:01:16How are you, Frezenator?
01:01:17Fine, thank you.
01:01:18Now, what can I do
01:01:19for your,
01:01:20your...
01:01:21Before we start,
01:01:22Sir Cosmo,
01:01:23may I please make it plain
01:01:24that the girl in question
01:01:25is not my,
01:01:26my anything,
01:01:27you know.
01:01:28No, that's to say,
01:01:29she's only my friend
01:01:30and nothing else.
01:01:31Naturally, my dear fellow,
01:01:32you told me that last time.
01:01:33Yes, but I don't think
01:01:34you believed me.
01:01:35Well, certainly I believed you,
01:01:36just a friend and nothing else.
01:01:37Now, what's the trouble?
01:01:38She wishes to join
01:01:39the Free Norwegian Forces,
01:01:40you know,
01:01:41but her passport
01:01:42is not in order.
01:01:43Have you got it with you?
01:01:44Yes.
01:01:45Oh, well, I'll go into it.
01:01:46You voucher
01:01:47have bonified it,
01:01:48I suppose?
01:01:49Of course, yes.
01:01:51Yes, of course.
01:01:52Stupid question.
01:01:53Why was it a stupid question?
01:01:54My dear fellow...
01:01:55But, Sir Cosmo,
01:01:56I cannot show you...
01:01:57Yes, yes, yes,
01:01:58there's no need to go
01:01:59into all that again.
01:02:00You can tell the little lady
01:02:01not to worry.
01:02:02It's very nice of you.
01:02:04Not at all.
01:02:05Goodbye.
01:02:06Jordan.
01:02:07Yes, sir.
01:02:08Check up on that, will you?
01:02:09Lieutenant Faisonnet's
01:02:10lady wants to join
01:02:11the Free Norwegian Forces.
01:02:12Yes, sir.
01:02:14J'attendrai chez moi
01:02:17votre visite
01:02:20là-haut sous les toits
01:02:22dans mon logis
01:02:24tous les jours je reçois
01:02:27venez, venez vite
01:02:30venez donc chez moi
01:02:34Venez.
01:02:36Oh, that's lovely.
01:02:38It wouldn't sound
01:02:39half so pretty in English.
01:02:41Not in my English.
01:02:42No, really,
01:02:43that sort of thing
01:02:44sounds much better in French.
01:02:46But love is international.
01:02:48It's not so much what you say
01:02:50but what you feel.
01:02:52Well, you ought to know about that.
01:02:54Me?
01:02:55Yes, love in six lessons.
01:02:57But all that is from my imagination.
01:03:01I don't understand women at all, you know.
01:03:03No, no, really.
01:03:04I am a one-girl man.
01:03:07Francois, I don't believe a word of it.
01:03:09But it's true.
01:03:10You know, John,
01:03:11since I left France,
01:03:12I have not looked at any girl.
01:03:15Except you.
01:03:17And Louise and Anita
01:03:19and Gertrude and Barbara.
01:03:20No, no, no.
01:03:21Cross my heart.
01:03:23I think you'd better go on playing.
01:03:25All right.
01:03:27I will make some more schmutzel.
01:03:30Venez donc chez moi
01:03:33Je vous invite
01:03:36Il y a de la joie chez moi
01:03:38C'est merveilleux
01:03:40A côté des étoiles
01:03:43Ideally suited to each other, aren't they?
01:03:45Yes, ideally.
01:03:50J'attendrai chez moi
01:03:53Votre visite
01:03:55Là-haut sous mes doigts
01:03:58Any luck?
01:04:00Don't give up hope.
01:04:04It wouldn't surprise me
01:04:05if he proposed to Joan at any moment now.
01:04:07Who?
01:04:08That de Freysenet, of course.
01:04:10De Freysenet?
01:04:11Maybe.
01:04:12Oh, that's not possible.
01:04:13Why not?
01:04:14Oh, dash it, though.
01:04:15You've got to face facts.
01:04:16The fellow's got a girl tucked away somewhere.
01:04:17Tucked away?
01:04:18Yes, he keeps popping into the foreign office
01:04:20and asking favors for her.
01:04:22This is a deuce delicate situation.
01:04:24I mean, dash it, you don't want your niece
01:04:26to marry a fellow with a lady, do you?
01:04:29Oh, good gracious, no.
01:04:31You'll have to buy her off.
01:04:34I'll have to?
01:04:35Yes.
01:04:36No, there's only one person
01:04:37who can tackle this situation.
01:04:38Oh, who's that?
01:04:39Just a minute.
01:04:40Let me see.
01:04:41Now, what's that girl's address?
01:04:44Ah, here we are.
01:04:4623 Trevor Street West.
01:04:4823 Trevor Street West.
01:04:5023 Trevor Street West.
01:04:5223 Trevor Street West.
01:04:59Here's the address.
01:05:00Hmm? Whose address?
01:05:01Where the, where the paramour lives.
01:05:03I beg your pardon?
01:05:04The French paramour.
01:05:05Who's French paramour?
01:05:06His.
01:05:07De Freysenet?
01:05:08Yes.
01:05:09I heard Uncle Cosmo telling Aunt Christopher
01:05:10all about it.
01:05:11Oh?
01:05:12Well, what are you going to do?
01:05:13Well, there's nothing really very much
01:05:14I can do, is there?
01:05:15You must confront them.
01:05:16Confront who?
01:05:17The guilty pair.
01:05:18You must tell them what a miserable,
01:05:19black-hearted scoundrel he really is.
01:05:21Oh, must I really?
01:05:22Oh, Gilby.
01:05:23Gilby, can I have a word with you?
01:05:25Yes, certainly, sir.
01:05:26Yes, well, I've always thought of you
01:05:27as a good friend of the family.
01:05:28Well, I hope I am, sir.
01:05:29Well, there's a little matter cropped up,
01:05:31and I...
01:05:32All right, darling, you can run along.
01:05:34Well, there's a little matter cropped up,
01:05:35and I think you're about the best person
01:05:36to deal with it
01:05:37and preserve the honour of the family,
01:05:39as it were.
01:05:40I find I have an ache in my heart.
01:05:44Please give me some bicarbonate of soda.
01:05:50Who's that?
01:05:51It sounds as if my next pupil is early.
01:05:53Could I ask you the name of your next pupil?
01:05:56Why, certainly.
01:05:57I think you know him.
01:05:58It's Felix Dembowski.
01:05:59That's what I was afraid of.
01:06:00Mademoiselle, perhaps it may seem to you
01:06:02an extraordinary request,
01:06:04but might I hide in your bedroom?
01:06:07Well, of course, but why?
01:06:09I have my reason for not wishing
01:06:10to be found here by Mr. Dembowski.
01:06:13Excuse me.
01:06:14Well, if it is not him, I'll knock.
01:06:22You!
01:06:23Yes, me. Why?
01:06:25Well, don't you recognise me?
01:06:26No, I don't think...
01:06:31Oh, you!
01:06:32Yes, me.
01:06:34Well, come in.
01:06:39But how did you find out where I was living?
01:06:42I didn't.
01:06:43That's to say, I didn't know it was you who lived here.
01:06:45Oh, then you didn't come to see me.
01:06:46No, I came to see the woman living at 23 Trevor Street.
01:06:49Well, then you did come to see me.
01:06:51Yes, in that sense, I did, not knowing it was you.
01:06:53Of course, now that I do know that it's you,
01:06:55it explains quite a lot.
01:06:57This is getting beyond me.
01:06:59What does it explain?
01:07:00Oh, wouldn't you like to sit down, please?
01:07:03Yes, thank you.
01:07:08Now, look.
01:07:10Has he gone already?
01:07:12Ah!
01:07:13What?
01:07:14That.
01:07:15That?
01:07:16Well, need I say more?
01:07:17Well, I don't know. It's just as you feel.
01:07:19This is Monsieur de Fresinet, and this is Mr...
01:07:22Oh, I'm afraid I...
01:07:23No, no, I ain't no lieutenant, Gilby.
01:07:25How do you do? How do you do?
01:07:26Well, look, wouldn't you like to sit down?
01:07:28Oh.
01:07:29I simply don't believe it.
01:07:30I swear it's true. Cross my heart.
01:07:32Here's the address.
01:07:33You must go and confront them.
01:07:36Confront them nothing.
01:07:38I'm going to see what's going on.
01:07:44Have you seen any good plays lately?
01:07:47No.
01:07:54Well, I must be going now.
01:07:56Well, if you must.
01:07:57It's Zemblowski.
01:07:59Excuse me.
01:08:00If you don't mind, may I go in your bedroom?
01:08:03Please.
01:08:05Worm.
01:08:06Who, Francois? Why?
01:08:07My poor girl.
01:08:08Don't you realize that man's not to be trusted?
01:08:10Why not? He pays me regularly.
01:08:12I don't doubt it.
01:08:14But he's receiving you just the same.
01:08:15How?
01:08:16There's another girl.
01:08:18Knowing Francois, I should say there are hundreds.
01:08:21Maggie, there's someone at the door.
01:08:23All right, miss, I'm going.
01:08:25But don't you mind?
01:08:26No, why should I?
01:08:32Oh.
01:08:33Joan.
01:08:34I beg your pardon.
01:08:37Would you mind introducing me to your friend?
01:08:39Yes, certainly.
01:08:40Miss Heseltine, miss...
01:08:41I'm awfully sorry.
01:08:42Knudsen.
01:08:43I beg your pardon?
01:08:44Knudsen.
01:08:45K-N-U-D-S-E-N.
01:08:46Miss Knudsen.
01:08:48Aren't you both underestimating my intelligence a little?
01:08:51What does she mean?
01:08:52To my certain knowledge, you've been friends and...
01:08:55I imagine a good deal more than friends for the past two years.
01:08:59Joan, that's a monstrous lie.
01:09:01Miss Knudsen and I aren't a guilty pair.
01:09:04Good heavens, no.
01:09:05No, no, Miss Knudsen's lover's in there.
01:09:07What?
01:09:08Yes.
01:09:13Come out, monsieur de Fresny.
01:09:14The game's up.
01:09:15Hello, Joan.
01:09:16Oh, so they were right.
01:09:18Who were right?
01:09:19Don't you speak to me, you, you creature.
01:09:23Oh, don't be harsh with her, Joan.
01:09:25This is the miserable, black-hearted scoundrel who's the cause of her downfall.
01:09:28Who, me?
01:09:29Yes, you.
01:09:30Come, Joan.
01:09:31Take your hand off me, you, you rattlesnake.
01:09:34I seem to have interrupted a sort of oriental orgy.
01:09:38Listen, Bridget, I find I have an ache in my heart.
01:09:41Oh!
01:09:44Please do give me some bicarbonate of soda.
01:09:50She must be upstairs somewhere.
01:09:52Splendid opportunity.
01:09:53Yes, forward, forward.
01:09:55You tackle the first one.
01:09:57Well, it's really Felix who was most wronged.
01:10:00After all, she stamped on his foot.
01:10:02Yes, but she said those cruel, wounding things to you and not to me.
01:10:04You should go first.
01:10:06Permit me.
01:10:07She called you rattlesnake.
01:10:09Yes.
01:10:10Well, how about all three together?
01:10:12Very good, partner.
01:10:15Don't you think perhaps a little air, just to cool us off?
01:10:19By all means.
01:10:24Don't you think perhaps a little drink would do us more good?
01:10:28Just one.
01:10:30Of what use to see her now?
01:10:33Je vous le demande un peu.
01:10:36She will slip our faces and call us not a rake.
01:10:38Yes, she's not the only woman in the world.
01:10:41You have an English saying, the...
01:10:43The tenor has lost his chestnut.
01:10:46No, no, no.
01:10:47In the sea there are plenty other fishes.
01:10:51Correct, my friend.
01:10:52Perfectly correct.
01:10:54She's not to be bothered with.
01:10:56No, no.
01:10:57You mean to say such thing to us and we are as innocent as babes?
01:11:00Oh, are we all as innocent as babes, eh?
01:11:04What do you mean?
01:11:05I will not mention any names, but who was it who took English lessons in secret, eh?
01:11:10Permit me.
01:11:11Je vous en prie.
01:11:12What I did, I did in self-defense.
01:11:15Oh, it is not pretty to do such thing with no one's friend's back.
01:11:20Look, we had all this out of the Belgrave Arms.
01:11:23Let's forget about it, shall we?
01:11:25Right, let's forget everything.
01:11:27There are some things which one cannot forget.
01:11:30Look, did I ever tell you I was sorry for calling you a black-hearted scoundrel?
01:11:35No.
01:11:36Well, I am.
01:11:38You aren't really a black-hearted scoundrel at all.
01:11:42Oh, thank you.
01:11:43My dear old chap, thank you very much.
01:11:45I am most deeply touched.
01:11:47Do you want to know why I thought you were a black-hearted scoundrel?
01:11:51Why?
01:11:52Because you are a foreigner.
01:11:54That is the only reason because you are a foreigner.
01:11:57English lessons in secret, behind one's friend's back.
01:12:01Now, when we were in Geneva before the war, do you know what happened?
01:12:06Know what?
01:12:07We were treated like foreigners too.
01:12:11The English, they all said.
01:12:14The English.
01:12:15Black-hearted scoundrels a lot of them.
01:12:19They did.
01:12:20Oh, they did.
01:12:22Oh, my friend.
01:12:24My poor old friend.
01:12:26I am so profoundly moved.
01:12:30Thank you, old boy.
01:12:32You see, we aren't black-hearted scoundrels at all.
01:12:35Shall I tell you what we really are?
01:12:37I shall always be grateful.
01:12:41We are just you and me.
01:12:46Oh, my friend.
01:12:48That is so marvelously, so magnificently true.
01:12:51And how beautifully said.
01:12:54Just you and me.
01:12:56Just me and you.
01:13:51Just me and you.
01:14:21Yes, what is it?
01:14:41New typist for the major, sir.
01:14:44All right.
01:14:47Will you come this way, please?
01:14:49You're very busy here, aren't you, corporal?
01:14:51Yes, the major never lets up.
01:14:52Just wait a minute.
01:14:54And I want those 4,000 boots by Friday.
01:14:57You doubt if you can, well, I'm afraid you'll have to.
01:14:59New secretary just arrived, sir.
01:15:01Thank you. We'll tell her to wait, will you?
01:15:02Sergeant, where's the interpreter?
01:15:03She's waiting outside, sir.
01:15:04Well, send her in.
01:15:05Yes, sir.
01:15:06Give me DCRE as quick as you can.
01:15:10Translate this into French, Danish, Norwegian and Dutch.
01:15:12Yes, sir.
01:15:13Four extra copies. I'll need it in 20 minutes.
01:15:15All this in 20 minutes?
01:15:16Well, if you can do it in 15, I shan't grumble.
01:15:18Send the new girl in.
01:15:19Very good, sir.
01:15:20You can go in now.
01:15:22Straight through.
01:15:29Oh, well.
01:15:31Do you remember me, creature?
01:15:33Yes.
01:15:35Yes, I do. How are you?
01:15:37Oh, what are you doing here?
01:15:38I'm the major's new shorthand typist.
01:15:41He had six last month.
01:15:43Is it so difficult?
01:15:44Worse.
01:15:46Excuse me.
01:15:49I'm sorry, sir.
01:15:50Furthermore, that is not the way to spell instantaneously.
01:15:53I'm sorry, sir.
01:15:55Where's that letter from Major Yates?
01:15:57They're still looking for it in the files, sir.
01:15:59Well, hurry them up, will you?
01:16:00Yes, sir.
01:16:01Take a letter. This address.
01:16:03Dear sirs.
01:16:04With reference to yours of the 12th inst.,
01:16:06I would like to point out that the 3,000 huts referred to have not proved up to standard.
01:16:10I would ask you, therefore, to send us immediately 500 waterproof mats.
01:16:15I don't care if she's had triplets. She's got to be here tomorrow.
01:16:19In addition, we must have the drainage attended to.
01:16:23Yes, sir. I'll see to it at once.
01:16:26Now, read that back, will you?
01:16:30Read it back.
01:16:31Yes, dear.
01:16:42How do you do?
01:16:43How do you do?
01:16:44How do you do?
01:16:45It is nice to see you again.
01:16:47Yes, it's nice to see you now.
01:16:49Now, read it back, please.
01:16:53Dear sir.
01:16:55Sirs.
01:16:56What did you say?
01:16:57I said sirs. Plural of sir.
01:17:00Oh, sirs.
01:17:02With reference to yours, I should like...
01:17:04With reference to yours of the 12th inst.
01:17:06I'm so sorry.
01:17:0812th inst.
01:17:09I should like to point out that...
01:17:11That what?
01:17:14I can't read my writing.
01:17:16That the 3,000 hats...
01:17:18Huts!
01:17:19Huts!
01:17:20Referred to have not...
01:17:22Have not what?
01:17:23Have not proved up to standard.
01:17:26I should ask you, therefore, to send us immediately 500 waterproof cats.
01:17:30Excuse me.
01:17:32Have you ever heard of a waterproof cat?
01:17:35No, sir.
01:17:37But that's what you said.
01:17:38It may interest you to know that I happen to say mats.
01:17:40M-A-T. Mat. C-A-T. Cat.
01:17:42Now, go on.
01:17:44I don't care if she's had triplets.
01:17:47What?
01:17:48Well, that's what you said.
01:17:50My poor young woman.
01:17:51Why should I suddenly refer to triplets?
01:17:53Oh, I don't know.
01:17:55In addition, we must have the drainage attended to.
01:17:57Yes, sir. I'll see to it at once.
01:17:59You will see to it at once.
01:18:01No, sir. You'll see to it at once.
01:18:03I'll see to it at once.
01:18:04Well, that's what you said.
01:18:05Are you trying to be funny?
01:18:07No, sir.
01:18:08Well, then I can't explain it.
01:18:09Unless, of course, you're just hopelessly inefficient.
01:18:11Yes, sir.
01:18:12And don't just sit there saying yes, sir.
01:18:13No, sir.
01:18:14I've got a job to do here, and if you can't do better...
01:18:15That's right.
01:18:16When everything else has failed, turn on the tears, the dear old tears.
01:18:19Let them roll.
01:18:20Let us whimper and snivel and use every feminine trick that melts a man's heart.
01:18:24Get that girl a job she can do.
01:18:25Right, sir.
01:18:26And get me an efficient shorthand typist.
01:18:27Yes, sir. He's just come in, sir.
01:18:33Well, how did you get on?
01:18:35Sacked.
01:18:36Oh, he's a terrible man.
01:18:37No, it was my fault, really.
01:18:39No, no, it's his fault. He's not human.
01:18:45No, he's not.
01:18:48That's what's so wonderful.
01:19:09Come on.
01:19:32Good morning.
01:19:33Fortune and Weedon, I understand.
01:19:36Good morning.
01:19:37Good morning, Queenie.
01:19:40Isn't that enough?
01:19:41I know, my dear. There'll be simply hundreds of them.
01:19:44After all, New Year's Eve only comes once a year.
01:20:09New Year's Eve only comes once a year.
01:20:11New Year's Eve only comes once a year.
01:20:17Make a dance, come on!
01:20:35May I?
01:20:39Well, last week I was on night shift.
01:20:47What kind of work do you do?
01:20:48Oh, I test the stress and strain of chrome steel.
01:20:51That sounds very complicated.
01:20:52You look different.
01:20:53What is it?
01:20:54My hair.
01:20:55I had it cut.
01:20:56Ah.
01:20:57Charles.
01:20:58Charles.
01:20:59Vive la France.
01:21:26England forever.
01:21:27Joan.
01:21:28You must have thought I was awfully rude.
01:21:29Oh, no.
01:21:30I didn't mind a bit.
01:21:31But I was rude.
01:21:32But, Tom, don't you understand?
01:21:33I like it when you're out of reach.
01:21:34Now, look, Joan.
01:21:35Shall we get this clear once and for all?
01:21:47I am not out of reach.
01:21:49Oh, yes, you are.
01:21:50No, I'm not.
01:21:51Yes, you are.
01:21:52Am I?
01:21:53Oh, Tom.
01:21:55My soul is curiously moved.
01:22:22I endeavor to give every satisfaction, sir.
