00:00 I'm a bad actress, you're a bad lawyer.
00:02 We have to get along.
00:03 Tomorrow we'll be on the street.
00:04 Good news?
00:06 Security inspector.
00:07 You had a meeting with Mr. Montferrand?
00:11 Yes.
00:12 Mr. Montferrand is dead.
00:13 He was murdered.
00:14 I admit that his sudden death is one of the happiest events of my life.
00:19 Mr. Montferrand jumped on me.
00:21 Well, miss.
00:22 He's an old pig.
00:23 And she would have five years in prison.
00:26 Not necessarily.
00:27 Legitimate defense.
00:29 So it's me.
00:30 I must confess, I'm the happiest man.
00:34 Me too.
00:35 I mean, women.
00:36 For a few years now, women have been killing us with a genital blood.
00:41 Isn't it possible, in 1935, to lead a life of women in all equality?
00:48 Life feels so different to me now.
00:55 Definitely.
00:57 Your crime is a miracle.
00:58 A miracle?
00:59 For Miss Verdier.
01:01 Again?
01:02 For 40 years, I didn't dare to kill my husband.
01:04 If I had known.
01:05 I think my crime is to turn the heads of all women.
01:08 Hello, my dolls.
01:09 But look at this dress.
01:11 It's a bedroom dress.
01:12 Please.
01:13 The rewards must go to those who deserve them.
01:15 The guilty are born, it's boring.
01:20 But the innocent who are accused, it's exasperating.
01:27 I wonder if I haven't suddenly lost the notion of good and evil.
01:29 I'm behind you, man.
01:29 (upbeat music)
01:31 (gunshot)
