Stepping onto the red carpet here is Régis Wargnier,
the director of East West,
present tonight for a special screening of his film
..he is accompanied by the producer Yves Marmion
and the splendid actress Sandrine Bonnaire
On his right is Veronica, who is wearing an amazing top...
in the shape of a serpent...
Hey, get a load of that!
...it was especially designed by Elli Medeiros for the Chopard jewelers.
...adorned with 500 diamonds
for a total weight of 385 carats.
With an estimated value of over 10 million dollars.
Look at that, oh man!
Incredible, how can she walk around like that!
Oh fuck! I can't believe you did that!
What am I supposed to do now?
I'm sorry, I'll clean them off.
Here they are.
Okay, great. But look what you did to my pants.
I've got just the thing to fix you up.
I've got to piss too, I'll be right back.
Give me the key.
Got a light?
We've got a problem.
They stole the diamonds...
These are glass. They switched them, these are glass!
It's fucking glass!
Call security!
Don't move! Stay where you are!
Don't move or I'll shoot!
The bitch double-crossed us.
She took off with the diamonds!
Where is she?
In Paris. She's got a girlfriend in Belleville.
Go and get the car... hurry up!
Yes?
...what do you want?
Over here...!
No, she went over there!
No, Irma, she went over there!
Nonsense, I saw her there!
I'm sure it's her, she went that way.
Keep looking over there!
Don't move...!
...don't move, stay put.
Take off your glasses...
...good, the light is perfect...
-Brought the money? -Of course...
...perfect for what?
I need a picture for the passport.
Look right at the lens.
Oh my God!
Don't touch her, don't...!
Are you preparing the tea?
Yes, of course. I'm not just boiling the water.
Oh forget it.
I told you we should have done something.
It's none of our business.
Oh right.
You read two words and she falls apart. That's none of our business, I suppose.
It had to be done. People die and will have to be read.
Did you see the look on her face?
And her hair...
What has she done with her hair?
What do I know about looks? I'm just a notary, damn it.
What if the kids and I were killed? Would you give a damn what I left you?
When your gun disappeared I knew she would do something crazy.
-How do you know she stole it? -Who else?
Go, check on the tea.
Feeling better, Lily?
Excuse me but I don't understand...
Now, you just shut up, honey. save your strength.
You just have to rest.
You have suffered a terrible tragedy, and...
you need time to get better, you know.
And if you get the urge to do anything silly, I want you to call me.
Before we leave...
I want you to answer just one question...
Did you borrow Louis' gun?
Are you sure?
Okay, but if you come across it, you'll tell me, won't you?
I'll turn the TV on so you'll have some company.
Here
We'll be back tonight with some dinner.
Drink your tea while it's hot.
And if you could see the future in a crystal ball,
or in the palm of your hand, or in a dream...
...Would you change it?
"We are sorry for your great loss."
"I thought I'd go to America and start a new life.
My English isn't so good but I'm a fast learner.
I even bought a plane ticket, but I've lost it.
I just can't go on without my Thierry and Brigitte.
Please God, forgive me, and let us now all be together."
There's been a mistake.
The computer has sold the same seat twice.
I'm terribly sorry.
Could we accommodate you in our first class cabin?
Be careful, you almost fell!
-Oh thank you. -Where are you going?
Listen I'm looking for public toilets...
...the Champs Elysées are over there or over here?
I don't understand, sorry...
-Do you speak English? -No, no, very little...
-I don't speak English, but... -What do you want?
I'm going to the toilets over there...
-Could you...? -Stop that. You pervert!
I'm telling you they're this way...!
Nice wheels!
What did you expect...?
...I only steal the best!
Nice going man.
Really.
Thanks for keeping your mouth shut.
They must have offered you some sweet deals to talk.
There was nothing to talk about.
They just asked about the diamonds, of which I knew shit.
Once the insurance paid off, they stopped asking.
That bitch knows.
I thought about her every fucking minute...
...for seven fucking years!
Where...
is she?
Hey, I've been looking. I talked to everyone, I never stopped.
I ran down every scumbag that ever knew her, but so far nothing.
She just vanished off the face of the earth?
Hey, I'm not Interpol, all right!
I've been fucked same as you!
I did a hell of a lot of checking!
I've got one thing, maybe, one thing...
You know that girlfriend of hers?
...the brunette...
She's fencing diamonds.
It's all I've got.
I'll ask you this just once.
Where is she?
Good... so where is she?
The ambassador is extremely worried.
...the police...?
...God no...
...keep calling Shiff.
...Hello, is this policia...?
Madre de Dios, my name is Sofia...
I call from the Charles de Gaull Airport...
A man just hit the lady in front of the pharmacy...
...yes, wait a second...
...yes, man is still there, but i see no Lady...
...he steal her car...
...no, sorry, my husband calling me...
Is it your car?
Just put it down here.
Could you hand me my bag...?
-Of course. -It's over there by the bed.
I don't see it.
Maybe on the floor?
I'm sorry, but I don't see it.
This is the gun we found in the Mercedes.
-Any details? -It's not registered.
Concerning the car...
...it belongs to the American Embassy.
That fucking bitch...
She's at it again!
That sure is pretty Where did you get it?
In a curio shop in Belleville.
I got it for my daughter.
I've got a little girl myself...
She'll be ten next June.
Do you remember the name of the store?
I make lots of deliveries there.
I'd sure like to get her something like that for her birthday.
You give this to her.
That's sure nice of you...
She'll just love it.
It's just for a little girl...
...when she grows up, she'll think it's too silly...
So just take it and hang it right there.
So that...
...when you're on the road...
...your little girl will always be with you.
You bitch, you and Laure set us up!
She never switched the bra...
and you walked
right the hell out
WEARING IT!
