Quotes7

  • English Teacher: Last and simple question. Where is the father?
  • Rene: Ze fazer...
  • English Teacher: No. The father.
  • Rene: Ze fazer.
  • English Teacher: No, the tip of the tongue between the teeth. As if you had a lisp. Father.
  • Rene: Fazer.
  • English Teacher: No.
  • Rene: But I can't, sir. Not everybody has a tongue like yours.
  • Rene: Bonjour, Madam!
  • Man in Street: Little devil!
  • Rene: You can sleep here. No one will know.
  • Antoine Doinel: What about your parents?
  • Rene: They never come in here. My mother drinks and my father spends all day at the races.
  • Mr. Bigey: Have you seen your mother lately?
  • Rene: Yes, when I came home from school.
  • Mr. Bigey: She makes sure she's never home when I am. She must be up to something.
  • Gilberte Doinel: Antoine! He saw me!
  • The Lover: Which one's he?
  • Gilberte Doinel: With dark hair. But he should be in school!
  • Rene: You'll get it!
  • Antoine Doinel: She won't dare tell Dad.
  • Rene: First off, we've got to think of a way to make some money.
  • Antoine Doinel: Right, that's the first thing to do.
  • Rene: Right. Meanwhile, I'll take an advance on my inheritance.
  • Antoine Doinel: Sourpuss is a real asshole.
  • Rene: That's his job.
  • Antoine Doinel: Still, I'm gonna smash his face in before I go to the army!
