Jean-Paul Belmondo credited as playing...
Chauvin
- Chauvin: I saw you first last May. At your party, for the factory staff. You looked kind, but remote. You were leaning on a piano. You wore a magnolia on a black dress. You waited for the guests to go. You kept crushing the magnolia. My name is Chavin.
- Anne Desbarèdes: Why did he kill her?
- Chauvin: I don't know. I don't know.
- Anne Desbarèdes: What do you think?
- Chauvin: I think she asked him to. He had no alternative.
- Anne Desbarèdes: Is it with him?
- Chauvin: It is with him - that she understood what she really was. For instance...
- Anne Desbarèdes: A bitch.
- Anne Desbarèdes: I'm so closely watched.
- Chauvin: I know. People are right to watch you.
- Anne Desbarèdes: [smiles] Go on talking.
