Director: José Pinheiro
Which one of you is prettier, huh?
-Are you afraid? -Just try it again.
Marc! I donīt like it!
Nobody actually forced you to come.
Marc, I donīt like all that stuff youīre in.
-I never lied to you about what I did! -Yes, but I didnīt know it was like this.
All right. Relax. Close your eyes. In 3 hours weīll be lying in the sun.
Here you go!
Come on!
Oh, s hit. Look!
Done!
Pratt!
Mylčneīs dead.
Waiting for you in Lyons. Iīm wit h you! Reiner.
Donīt cry!
Letīs go!
Will you be gone for long?
-As long as it takes. -līll be waiting for you to come back.
Letīs go!
Pratt!
Iīm very sorry!
Heīs a nice looking guy.
He quit the police 1 0 years ago, but they still remember him.
-Was he fired? -No, he resigned.
-Why?. -I guess he couldnīt just stand aside.
-ltīs something t hey didnīt like much at headquarters. -One must adapt.
Yeah... or disappear... Iike the dinosaurs.
Meet inspector Clement. Sheīs in charge of the case.
Iīm very sorry.
-Will you give me a lift?. - Wait! Clement wants to talk to you.
-I donīt feel like talking. - I will talk, Monsieur Pratt.
Look, I want to get some sleep. And I presume our talking will take some time. Excuse me.
I just want to show you something.
The same weapon?
Yes, SPAS-1 2. Franchi SPAS-1 2.
22 victims in 3 months. None a single survivor. No witnesses.
Who are the victims?.
Traders, dealers, bums.
Almost all t he murders were committed in the Magrettes area.
What else have you got?.
No motive, no connection between the victims.
Letīs me guess. The investigators have testimonies that will shed light on these events. How old are you anyway?
24. Why?.
Just asking.
You think you can do better, Monsieur Pratt?
I fully trust her. She knows very well what sheīs doing.
Go back to t he island.
It wonīt do any good if you stay here. Youīre just torturing yourself in vain.
I know, Stéph. But what else am I supposed to do?.
Weīll find them. You have my word, copīs word of honor. Just stay calm.
You have my word, copīs word of honor.
Join us for dinner. Iīll introduce you to Dominique.
-Dominique?. -My wife.
For what?. Are you nuts? I pay in cash.
-Whatīs wrong with you? -Look at your stuff. Itīs been opened 50 times.
-I have never opened it. -līm not buying your stuff. Youīre nuts.
Come on. I donīt care about that.
Done!
Have a seat!
So youīre no longer a cop?
And youīre no longer in jail?
Iīve paid in full.
Me too.
Do you still trade in arms?
Thatīs over and done with!
Five SPAS-1 2īs. In the hands of five bastards.
I told you, I quit.
-You were desperate. -Yes, I was.
SPAS-1 2, a very powerful weapon. You must have noticed. Five SPAS-1 2īs.
I donīt know his last name. Only his name. Itīs Abel.
We always met behind t he police shooting range parking.
Put something on. Youīll catch cold.
Hi guys!
- -Here comes our handsome! Hi Abel! -Hi, sweet!
-Havenīt the guys arrived yet? -No, youīre the first, as usual.
Iīll fire a couple of rounds till they get here.
-How much do I owe you? - 4.50
Thanks.
-Well? -Heīs here.
-Here?. Where?. -Be hind you. Donīt turn round!
What does he want?. He doesnīt like us getting rid of the dregs of society.
He wants to kill us.
-Then weīll finis h him. -No, leave him to me.
Heīs mine. Iīll take care of him myself. You just go away quietly.
Thereīs a lady waiting for you in the bar, Monsieur Pratt.
You play rugby in a suit?.
No, I take mud bat hs for rheumatism.
Wiith your clothes on?
Iīm a very busy man, you know.
Are you on duty?.
I was thinking to invite you to a concert. But I guess itīs already late for that.
Commissioner Reiner asked me to look after you.
I donīt t hink youīll sit by.
Weīll see.
Letīs suppose youīll be the fiirst to fiind them.
Will you just start s hooting at random?
Depends on the situation.
I wonīt let you do that.
Will you strangle me with your stockings?.
I wonīt let you do that.
I know.
-What are you doing? -Going to bed.
Anot her dolce vita.
Less gin, more martini.
Letīs go to the next bridge.
Why donīt we just ask for a transfer to the River Squad?
Thanks buddy.
I donīt know anything. Iīm an inspector, not a probationer.
Find somebody else to follow him.
We have nothing on him. He is engaged in jogging, swimming and boxing.
Doesnīt see anyone, doesnīt talk to anyone.
Excuse me.
If he has made up his mind, heīll find t hem.
He doesnīt have more information than I do.
But he can fiind it and blow up the whole city.
His daughter has been killed!
Where are you going?
I need to do some washing.
You?
Yes, itīs me.
The flower s hop was closed, so I plucked some nettle.
I hope līm not disturbing you.
Yes, you are. I need to hide my lover in the closet.
If I ask you what youīre doing here at t his hour, will you consider it as an interrogation?
No! Of course not.
I was actually looking for a quiet place to get some sleep.
So why here?.
Well, so t hat you can look after me.
Have you found something?
Letīs say, they have found me.
-Pratt, you must... -No, Sabine.
Itīs you who must trust me. I need your help.
Those bastards have killed my daughter.
I know, Pratt. But itīs not that easy.
If you want to stay, I can offer you a cot.
-What?. -A cot.
Cot?.
All right. Not hing to complain of. Weīre at war, after all.
What war, Pratt?.
Mine.
Letīs tell each ot her about ourselves.
I have a small fishing business. 5-6 boats.
I also bought one of the two bars of our island.
Why did you quit the police?.
Iīve heard something, but donīt know if itīs true.
My wife was killed 1 0 years ago.
T hey found the guilty one, but t hen let him go. No evidence.
And what did you do?.
Not hing.
I handed in my weapon and together with my daughter l moved to the edge of the world.
I couldnīt take any risks because she only had me.
She studied in France for six mont hs and came to see me on the island.
She lived like a princess. Everybody loved her.
And now youīve decided to play kamikaze?
Yes.
I feel like a spring, which has been stretc hed for 10 years.
-Pratt?. -What?.
Do you feel comfortable?
Very.
-Pratt?. -Yes.
I feel lonely.
Me too. How stupid, isnīt it?.
Looking for me?
I think heīs looking for me.
Jean-Paul, are you coming?
Finis h him and letīs take care of the ot hers.
For Christīs sake! I beg you!
This is the moment of truth. Be a man at least once in your life.
Take a good look at me.
That brunet is Patrick.
Was mixed wit h stealing paintings.
Many cases were built against him. I was trying to catch him for an entire year.
But not like this.
I see.
The press will claim again t hey did our job.
Send it to the lab.
Send us a fridge for at least 15 bodies.
Notify the Service of Communications that sanitary works are to be conducted.
I asked you to stay out if this.
Donīt teach me, OK?.
I donīt know how you managed to find them, but youīll have to tell us everything.
I donīt understand what youīre talking about.
Whatīs your angle? Huh?
Relax, inspector. Youīre on duty. Just go on with your investigation.
But you could get killed!
Are you nuts?.
You know what time it is?
I forgot my documents inside.
What else!
Please.
See?. You can be polite if you want to.
Bastard!
Are you angry?.
Youīd better leave this place.
I know. I was actually going to move tonight.
Itīs not the apartment.
but this area of Lyons.
Thatīs enough, Pratt!. Otherwise youīre risking to start something you wonīt be able to stop.
I promise you, līll find them, and they will receive the extreme penalty.
This is the extreme penalty.
Pratt!
If you leave know, weīll never see eac h other again.
Who knows?. May be youīll be the one to cuff me.
I hate you!
I hate you too.
Take a break for 5 minutes.
Come on. Move it!
I saw the boss today. He said not to act without a warrant.
What about t hat guy?. You t hink heīll stop.
If heīs out to kill us, he wonīt be reconciled.
Besides, he has seen me!
He has seen me.
His eyes, his stony look.
Donīt you have a file?
What file?
Police file, you moron! What else?
Weīre closed.
Itīll only take 2 minutes.
Thatīs enough for today. You can go, Patrick! Get out!
Good-bye, monsieur.
These are your guts.
Your bean.
Your balls!
-Did you understand? -Yes.
I canīt breathe.
Not quite.
I like your store.
Reminds me of my childhood.
Life line!
Show me your life line.
Show me!
Now youīre going to tell me the names of your friends.
I already know Abel Salem. The three are left.
-Hello! Whoīs it?. -Anonymous call.
Pratt, where are you?
Pratt?. I donīt know anyone with that name.
If I were you, I would go and see the store owned by certain Sylvain Dubor.
If youīre a friend, then you probably know Pratt.
May be.
Tell him I miss him.
Iīm sure he misses you too.
Yes?
OK!
Tell him līm coming down.
My baby girl.
Iīll kill them all.
I could arrest you.
Two days of detention would be enough to collect the evidence and bring charges.
If you were in my place what would you do?.
I wouldnīt want to be in your place.
However, you were right.
Sabine Clement is a good cop.
You know,
sometimes I was so much fed up with this damn job
that I wanted to find you by a postcard.
For ten times I wanted to write you -
īHi, itīs Stéphane, līm coming!ī
Thereīs nothing to prevent you from doing that, Stéph.
Nothing.
Come whenever you like. Iīm always glad to see you.
Go home, Pratt.
Not hing good will happen to you here.
Wait, Stéph. Weīll see.
Inspector Moreau. How is he?
Thereīs already no need to worry about him.
We gave him a sedative.
Iīll try to ask him a couple of questions.
Iīm not sure heīll be able to answer. I injected morphine to him. It causes sudden bouts of laughter.
Donīt worry. It wonīt take long.
Abel. What t he hell are you doing here?
What are you doing here?
Itīs not safe to stay in this hospital.
Abel, donīt try anything.
Iīve brought for you a new remedy.
In the dog pack the wounded are fiinished off.
Is that you, Mendez?.
Yes, seņor.
If you feel giddy, you shouldnīt have built that high.
I think youīre mistaken.
Youīre indefatigable. Iīm not here to argue.
But līm unarmed.
So was my daughter.
Youīre doing good. Where did t hey teach you that?.
In the Bolshoi Theater?.
I have a black belt. I have to warn you. Itīs not fair.
Thereīs cement down there. Almost no chances?
Youīll be a cripple for the rest of your life.
A nobody.
Ten fingers. Ten fucking little fingers.
You think you can make it if you have two on each hand?
Shall I hang on for dear life?.
-Drop your weapon. Police! -Fuck off!
Letīs go!
Monsieur?.
-Did you operate on her?. -Are you a relative?
Yes, what are her chances?
Iīll be able to say that only in 48 hours. Itīs amazing how she survived.
Finally they got that car fixed.
And now for all the rakes of Navi club!
Fasten your belts, itīll happen unexpectedly. The slow foxtrot
whic h līm about to present to you, has a feature. Your body will be covered with pimples.
And now letīs try this. Itīs good for blood circulation.
You wonīt do that!
Nobody wanted to s hoot your daughter. Abel forced us to.
What if I tell you the name of our boss? His nickname is lra Deum - the wrath of God.
I can find him myself.
Iīm returning this to the sender.
No!
Super! Letīs do it again!
anyt hing wrong?
You think līll just let you look down your nose at all this from your pedestal?
- I will not allow to shoot myself. - I told you - īno innocent victimsī.
And you killed his daughter. Shot a cop.
He loves her very much.
It was a mistake.
Anyway,
I al ways knew that Pratt was out of range for you.
Untouchable.
And sooner or later līll have to bring an end to this story.
Salem!
Youīd better put your gun down, Monsieur Pratt?.
The reason?
The premeditated murder of two, possibly three people.
Nothing more?.
It seems more reasonable.
Itīs not the time to rant.
I donīt think so.
Who told you I was going to come here?
Commissioner Reiner.
He knows a lot of things for sure.
Open the door!
Go and open the door!
They will perpetrate a massacre.
Donīt worry. 60 cops are not going to change anything.
Youīre risking to blow up the fire, buddy.
Excuse me.
I didnīt do it on purpose. It was an accident.
Open that door!
-Well? -Open the goddamn door!.
Now close it!
At 60 to one against me, you had no chances.
Everybody in your cars!
What the hell is he doing?
Commissioner, Dax speaking.
All went wrong.
I think heīs dead. He threw himself into the Rhone. There was nothing we could do.
Itīs finished!
Iīll go and have some sleep.
You gave in?
Youīre not half the man you used to be, Abel.
Fuck you!
What are you up to?.
I donīt need you anymore. Youīre fired.
Fuckers!
Bastards!
-Madame Reiner?. -Yes.
My name is Pratt. Daniel Pratt.
I need to see your husband. I tried to call him at t he offiice but he wasnīt there.
But heīs not here either. Please, come in.
It seems youīre surprised to see me.
Stéphane told me a lot about you.
But the last time he told me you were dead.
Itīs a misunderstanding. Thanks.
Why did you want to see him?
Just to remember the good old days.
You were not even thinking to talk about the good old days.
Stéphane spent sleepless nights since you came to Lyons.
He often says your name in his sleep.
So he still manages to fall asleep?
Stéphane told me you were his best friend. So w hat happened?
The time has passed.
Stéphane has been playing with fire recently, and itīs his problem.
But when he gets me involved, itīs becoming my problem too.
Perhaps I wasnīt thinking to talk about the good old days, but I wasnīt going to lie either.
I only need to talk to him.
Heīs at the circus with his son.
-With his son? -I mean with my son.
Thank you, madame Reiner.
Since weīre at the circus, the show goes on!
This is the moment of the highest emotional strain associated wit h this cell.
You wonīt remain indifferent. Since weīre talking about lions and tigers.
Meet the greatest artist of the French circus - Kid Bauer.
-Monsieur, youīre not allowed in here. -Take it!.
-No please. -Just take it.
Bingo, you bastard! Are you drunk again?
Fuck you!
OK. Go make yourself up, otherwise youīll be late. Move it! Get out of my sight!
Damn you!
Heīs drinking all the time.
Kid Bauer!.
OK, buddy!
What do you think?
I need a drink.
Youīll get the whole bottle.
But first letīs finish the lesson.
Christina Meyer!
Ladies and gentlemen, dear children!
And now, Bingo the clown with his voracious crocodile.
Letīs give Bingo a clap!
Iīm coming, Iīm coming!
Meet Bingo!
Hi, children!
Have we been obedient today?.
-Yes. -That was a good start!
Monsieur La haio, please keep your comments to yourself!.
-Itīs not īLa haioī, but īLahailī! -Whatever!.
-Have we been obedient today?. -Yes!
Canīt hear you!
Yes!
-Canīt hear a thing! -Yes!
Canīt hear you! My nose is stuffed up. And you, children? Can you hear me?
-Yes! -Great!
Then līll present to you my friend Bibi, the voracious crocodile.
Here comes Bibi!
Letīs give a clap! Bibi the voracious crocodile!
And my friend Fotti!
Now silent! Thereīs a little problem.
Bibi doesnīt like liars. He devours them.
Are there any liars in here?.
-No! -What?.
-Any liars in the hall? -No!
No liars in the hall.
No liars.
Iīll have to check.
Iīll see if there are any liars in the hall.
-Are you a liar?. -No, līm not a liar.
Youīre not?. Great!
OK, youīre not.
But līll go on seeking.
Got you!
-Youīre lying. So youīre a liar. -No!
OK.
Youīre the liar!
-Heīs performing better than usual. -Yes, the red wine probably acts on talent.
Absorption!
Digestion!
Monsieur, please! Letīs give monsieur a clap.
Heīll serve to the voracious crocodile for 15 minutes.
-Iīm scared! -Letīs give a clap!
My hammer! Get inside, please! Bravo, Monsieur!
Go! Go!
Abradadi... abradada... abrikak... abracadabra!
A sad end to a good cop.
There!
And now, children, letīs count!
Attention! A dwarf plus anot her dwarf will be an egg.
Egg plus another egg will be capers.
Capers plus capers will be an oyster.
Oyster plus another oyster will be a chair.
A chair plus another chair will be 30 eggs.
30 eggs plus 30 eggs will be 60 capers.
60 capers plus 60 capers will be 1 20 oysters.
120 oysters plus 1 20 oysters will be...
- Monsieur Lahaio? - 256!
There!
Suspense!
Monsieur?.
Monsieur!.
-Whereīs dad, dear?. -He disappeared.
-What do you mean īdisappearedī? -The clown enchanted him.
Enchanted?
Bibi the voracious will incubate him.
And then monsieur will hatch. Letīs go! See you later, children!
What are you saying?
Letīs go!
And whereīs monsieur?.
Give me inspector Dax. Yes, itīs urgent!
Iīm Madame Reiner.
Donīt be afraid. Iīm not a ghost.
What now?.
Ira Deum - the wrat h of God!
Justice got into your head.
My plane leaves in 2 hours.
Give me at least one reason not to kill you!
Five armed young men.
Five hunters ready to shoot everything that moves.
My personal order.
A way to feel yourself less useless and powerless.
Do you understand?
My poor Stéph!
Youīre completely out of your mind.
If itīs not taken care of, then after 5 years it will be impossible to go out for a walk in this damn city.
I donīt care about that.
Your daughterīs death...
I felt horrible too.
But you do know it was an accident.
I took care of Salem. All the five payed for that.
What else do you want?.
I donīt know what līm doing here.
I donīt even feel like killing you.
Then why do you need all t his?
When I saw you I t hought līd be able to kill you out of hatred.
But as you can see,
here I am standing in front of you,
and all I feel is the deep aversion.
Pratt!
Since weīre at the circus, the show goes on! Music!
Shall I hang on for dear life?.
Come on, come on!
Come on, swim! Go on!
Easy! Thereīs a wave. Slowly!
Slowly! Good!
