...contain that miracle
of elusive blue.

:21:04
- Who gave it to you, Aunt?
- A king.

:21:06
- A great king?
- No, a little one.

:21:08
Great kings do not
give very large stones.

:21:11
Why not?
:21:12
In my opinion, it's because
they don't feel they have to.

:21:15
Who does give the valuable jewels?
:21:17
Who?
:21:18
Oh, the shy, the proud.
:21:21
And the social climbers.
They think it's a sign of culture.

:21:24
But it doesn't matter
who gives them...

:21:26
...as long as you never
wear anything second-rate.

:21:29
Wait for the first-class jewels, Gigi.
:21:33
Hold on to your ideals.
:21:36
Come over here to the light, Gigi.
:21:42
Open your mouth.
:21:45
With teeth like that...
:21:47
...I could have devoured
all Paris and most of Europe.

:21:51
But I can't complain.
I had a good bite of it.

:21:55
Tell your grandmama
to get you some astringent lotion.

:21:58
You don't use face powder, do you?
:22:00
- Grandmama won't let me.
- I should hope not.

:22:02
You have an impossible nose,
a nondescript mouth.

:22:05
Your cheekbones are too high.
:22:08
But we can do something
with the rest of you.

:22:12
Your teeth, your eyes...
:22:14
...your eyelashes, your hair.
:22:16
We can...
:22:17
...and we will.
:22:20
You must learn to choose cigars.
:22:22
Aunt, but I don't smoke cigars.
:22:24
Of course you don't smoke cigars.
:22:27
But a man does.
:22:29
Everything I teach you...
:22:31
...has a good reason.
:22:36
Love, my dear Gigi...
:22:38
...is a thing of beauty,
like a work of art.

:22:41
And like a work of art,
it is created by artists.

:22:45
The greater the artist,
the greater the art.

:22:49
And what makes an artist?
:22:53
Cigars and jewelry?
:22:58
You are from another planet.
