Quotes
-
Roland Brissot : What would you do?
Irène : I wouldn't get married.
Roland Brissot : You don't believe in marriage?
Irène : Not for me. May I ask for your hand?
Roland Brissot : What for?
Irène : Don't worry, I'll give it back.
-
Irène : It's embarrassing to be naked in front of all these people.
Roland Brissot : Naked?
Irène : In the painting.
-
Roland Brissot : We leave tonight.
Irène : What about my surprise? You promised me a party.
Roland Brissot : I'd have loved to, but it's too late. Get ready.
Irène : If I get undressed, we'll never leave.
-
Irène : I'll take care of everything. Men don't know how to handle these things.
-
Roland Brissot : You're right. You've opened my eyes. I had scruples, but now I've seen the light. Starting tomorrow, I'll do a huge painting of you that will be the talk of the Salon. A nude, obviously.
Irène : I wasn't born yesterday. The Salon, with a detour to the bedroom. No, no. Too late... buddy. A month ago, it might've worked. I thought, "A painter. Why not? With his talent and my ambition, we'll really go places!"
Roland Brissot : Exactly.
Irène : I was wrong.
-
Irène : Let me go. You're big enough to hurt me but too little to scare me.
Roland Brissot : Too little?
Irène : Yes! Little painter in a little studio, eating little meals and courting little women. When your little life's done, they'll put you in a little black box. Good-bye, little guy!
-
Irène : Say something, don't just stand there like a lost soul.
-
Roland Brissot : Why won't you marry me?
Irène : Don't ask.
Roland Brissot : You'd be everything to me: my wife, my mistress, my muse. Anyway, that's my idea.
Irène : You're full of ideas.
