You know what Napoleon said?
1:07:02
Rene Wheeler, a first-class writer.
Take him and we'll be a team.
1:07:07
What did our friend Napoleon say?
1:07:09
It'll come back to me.
Rene's free as of now...
1:07:13
He knows it's Fernandel in front
and behind the camera.
1:07:16
Fernandel's ideas, gags, the works.
1:07:20
He talks so I'll say yes
without thinking.
1:07:23
But still, I'm thinking.
1:07:26
And I say yes anyway.
1:07:28
Go up and see Marcel Bryau,
1:07:30
who's in charge of contracts.
1:07:32
Don't go. I'll see you in a minute.
1:07:36
"Patience and time
accomplish more than force and rage."
1:07:41
That's it.
1:07:42
Have a good day.
1:07:43
Come along.
1:07:49
So it's Fernandel.
1:07:51
Your timing of the Tourneur film
was perfect!
1:07:55
Only a 17-second difference
with the final cut.
1:07:58
Do the same on Ladies' Delight.
You'll work with Cayatte.
1:08:05
The Military Cross?
And the stars are citations?
1:08:09
You were an officer?
1:08:10
Cavalry lieutenant, transferred
to a reconnaissance group.
1:08:16
But what happened to you French?
This whole debacle!
1:08:19
In '14 you held firm.
I fought you, you had courage!
1:08:23
But now, why this beating? Why so fast?
1:08:29
Fine. I have one, too.
I was a fighter pilot.
1:08:36
Power shortage.
Take 2 extra nights.
1:08:38
Cayatte lacks experience. You have it.
1:08:41
Show him where the camera goes.
1:08:44
It's freezing!
1:08:48
The young lady there...
1:08:50
That's a projector, not a foot-warmer.
1:08:58
Put a scrim on that projector.
