is a dagger for Vietnam,
1:05:02
or that the Communist press...
1:05:06
Everyone talks of the crimes
of the Red Guard

1:05:09
in the Cultural Revolution.
1:05:11
Listen, this is fantastic.
1:05:15
The first date
for Juliette and Pierre

1:05:18
opened doors
to a new world of magic.

1:05:24
The world of words
no one had spoken before them.

1:05:30
What are you reading?
1:05:34
Henri gave me
the Party's women's magazine.

1:05:37
Let's see.
1:05:41
Like the night before,
their eyes met.

1:05:43
Pierre couldn't speak.
1:05:47
No point in being Communist
to use that soap opera language.

1:05:57
I forbid you to read that.
1:05:59
I said Henri's a revisionist.
1:06:04
The joker's a king
and I sing Mao Mao...

1:06:08
Reminds me of pictures
of L'lllustration from 1917,

1:06:12
that treated Bolsheviks as beatniks.
1:06:16
They used the same terms
for the Bolsheviks

1:06:20
as that paper uses for the Red Guard.
1:06:23
You expect Le Figaro
to say that sort of thing.

1:06:27
But when L'Humanite does,
it's disgusting.

1:06:31
OK, there's work to do.
1:06:33
For everyone.
1:06:35
The other day I was reading
L'Humanite Nouvelle.

1:06:40
They talked about the film
Johnny Guitar,

1:06:45
that the Party leaders had shown...
1:06:50
..at a meeting somewhere,
I’m not sure where.

1:06:54
But they attack the film
because it's American,

1:06:59
even if it's good.
