:13:01
I'll talk till you understand.
:13:04
We Soubeyrans were the most
important family of this region.
:13:09
- On Grandpa's birthday...
- There were more than 30 guests.
:13:12
All of them Soubeyrans,
with pots of gold hidden about the place.
:13:18
We were respected.
:13:20
Well, things have changed.
That's fate.
:13:23
No! Fate doesn't exist.
:13:26
What happened to us
is the fault of our elders.
:13:31
They were proud and wanted
to hold on to their money.
:13:35
Cousins married cousins.
:13:38
One uncle married his niece.
It's just as bad for men as for rabbits.
:13:46
And what was the result?
:13:48
Two madwomen and three suicides.
:13:52
Now, it's just us.
:13:56
It's too late for me,
:13:58
so it's all up to you.
:14:02
You're telling me to get married.
Why didn't you?
:14:08
I wasn't cut out for it.
:14:12
Mind you, I almost did...
:14:15
It didn't work out. I joined up
on an impulse and went to Africa.
:14:23
When I came back...
:14:27
If she'd given me a child,
I'd have married her like a shot.
:14:31
But it didn't happen.
:14:35
I'm like Anglade's cherry trees:
lots of flowers, but no fruit.
:14:40
- So I'm to marry instead of you?
- You've got to, Galinette.
:14:46
But why should l?
:14:48
Why? You ask me why!
:14:51
Isn't the Soubeyran fortune
reason enough?
:14:55
This isn't paper money
we're talking about. It's gold!
:14:59
Pots full of gold coins.
Do you understand? I own a fortune!
