Gigi (1958) Edit

A bad year will be sharp.

A barbotage for the lady.

A baritone

A bit more conservative, perhaps.

A bore? Not at all.

A different bloom

A different girl every night. Keep them guessing who's next.

A good year, which this is, of course, will waft.

A growing child

A life devoted to the chase.

A little girl

A little sea air before the next round of parties.

A marquise diamond.

A marquise shaped diamond.

A most amazing shock to see

A prince of love

A rock from some obnoxious little king Is love

A sapphire with a star is love

A silly child

A tenor sang

A topaz?

A wonderful little life.

A wrestler from the Folies Bergère.

A young girl who goes out with you is no longer an ordinary young girl.

About 30.

About Gigi.

About her cheeks

About hummingbirds in all the flowers...

According to the percentages, you undoubtedly have an ace.

According to the stories Honoré tells me...

According to this morning's opening at la Bourse...

According to this morning's opening at la Bourse...

Acting out a part

Actually, it's a bore.

Actually, you don't know her. There's no meanness in her at all.

Adolescent to her toes And good heaven, how it shows

After all, you behaved like a perfect gentleman.

Ah, yes

Ah, yes

Ah, yes

Ah, yes

Aha!

Alfred de Musset, Victor Hugo, Napoleon.

All he has to say is, Hello, and I can barely keep my eyes open.

All it can do is flow

All right

All right, I will.

All right. If I lose, I'll take you and Mamita to Trouville.

All the myriad of treasures We have got

All the myriad of treasures We have got

Almost depressed. I don't know why.

Always both. Never the coffeepot alone.

Am I getting old?

Among my jewels? Are you mad?

An act of the purest chivalry.

An organ grinder's monkey?

An ugly black cigar is love

And after dinner, we'll have a serious game of cards.

And before they have finished, they'll smash everything beautiful and decent.

And coarse. Well, I really must go. Please come soon.

And don't flop into the chair.

And even if love Comes through the door

And Gigi isn't just another girl. She's special.

And Grandmama wasn't embarrassed to talk to me about it.

And had a definite allure

And he catches up and wins With a roar!

And he charges at the bold matador!

And how do you feel?

And I have only to go into another gentleman's bed.

And I salute them, every one

And I think I should have something to say about it.

And I'll beat you, as usual.

And if it wasn't joy galore

And if it's no or if it's yes It simply couldn't matter less

And if she doesn't appreciate the nobility of your conduct...

And if she doesn't appreciate the nobility of your conduct...

And just what are serious matters?

And just when we were trying so hard...

And like a work of art, it is created by artists.

And Madame d'Albert and the riding master.

And not like a marionette. Keep your shoulders level.

And on Sundays, we can have an extra special game of cards.

And on the whole, a sheer delight

And quite a past it was...

And remember the firm grip.

And shout to everyone in sight

And shout to everyone in sight

And so is Gaston.

And somehow I foolishly Wondered if you might

And speak highly of it

And that ridiculous collar!

And the results are nauseating.

And therefore, you lose.

And this lovely park is, of course, the Bois de Boulogne.

And to some very good people.

And under every tree in town

And what I say is, it won't work. It won't work!

And what makes an artist?

And what will you say?

And what's wrong with that collar?

And when did I display any lack of tact? It was a most congenial weekend.

And when do we go to Deauville?

And when I think of that delightful old gentleman...

And when she sends for you, which you realize she will

And when we fight, it will be in all the columns the next day.

And when you'd give me up, as you did with Inès des Cévennes.

And while you're praying

And why not? What's wrong with being with me?

And won't live without it

And you find her With that slippery señor

And you leave her there to weep On the floor

And your attractive mother? Well, I hope.

And your warmth

And your warmth Become desire?

Are you going out of your mind?

Are you losing your mind? Of course you may not.

Are you mad? I never want to see her again.

Are you trying to find a way to tell me that I don't please you?

Armenonville.

As far as you are concerned, it would be just another news item.

As God is my witness, I explained it to her. Believe me.

As you see, this lovely city all around us is Paris.

Ascend!

At least not once was she a bore

AUNT ALICIA: No!

Aunt Alicia! Well, I'd better run.

Aunt, but I don't smoke cigars.

Bad table manners...

Be careful. You'll ruin your hands.

Beautifully. That is, if I like it.

Become desire?

Besides, they are married.

Bless her little heart

Bonjour, madame, and company.

Bored?

Born: Paris.

Bow your head and please

But a man does.

But a skating instructor.

But don't talk with your mouth full.

But forgive me if I wonder, madame...

But Gigi No, no, no. Not Gigi.

But he's so conceited. So superior in an inferior way.

But here in Paris, those who will not are usually men...

But I can't complain. I had a good bite of it.

But I don't think you would understand.

But I have to do it. It's expected of me.

But I implore

But I must not forget my duty.

But I must say, I am compared to you.

But I thought you left me because of that Austrian count.

But I want to, Grandmama. Why don't you let me take lessons?

But I've never forgotten you.

But in this case, I would not have the heart to laugh...

But instead of getting married at once...

But it doesn't matter who gives them...

But it's a bore

But not all.

But not anymore. It's over. All over.

But of course.

But people are waiting for you.

But so backward for her years If a boy her age appears

But there are others, Gaston. You are known everywhere.

But there's one upstairs if it's important.

But they rave about it

But think of a race

But think of the bliss

But think of the thrill Of a bullfight in Seville

But think of wine

But we can do something with the rest of you.

But what about kindness, sweetness, benevolence?

But what was I to do?

But why?

But with someone like Gigi....

But you cheat.

But you cheated. Where did you get that fourth king?

But you didn't.

But you're not going to let a woman have the last word.

But....

But....

By some chance Be thinking of it too

By tomorrow noon at the latest.

Champagne for me. Well iced.

Charles, I'm going out.

Charles, some more wine for mademoiselle.

Cheer up? I couldn't be in better spirits.

Chérie...

Children are coming into the world...

Cigars and jewelry?

Circumstances:

Climbing up to the sky

Come along before I spank you.

Come and sit down.

Come in.

Come in.

Come on.

Come over here to the light, Gigi.

Come to think of it, those last days we spent together...

Come, my boy. You're not the first.

Comfortable.

Common?

Common.

Could I be wrong?

Couldn't you have invented it?

Crooked to the core

Darling.

Date:

Devil may care.

Did he say precisely where she would live?

Did you feel the perfume?

Did you forget what day it is?

Did you have a nice trip?

Did you have to improve the arrangement?

Did you notice that rope of black pearls around her throat?

Did you see her ring? Not a bagatelle

Did you tell her about love, travel, moonlight, Italy?

Did you work hard in school today? What did you study?

Dipped.

Dipped.

Discard one.

Discard three.

Discard two.

Do you have a telephone yet, Mamita?

Do you know how long it will take you to forget her?

Do you mean that?

Do you really think...?

Do you remember Madame Dunard...

Do you see that blue flame...

Do you want people to think you're despondent? Disturbed?

Do you want to...

Doesn't even know That boys aren't girls

Don't be nervous!

Don't be. Come on, get up!

Don't gulp it!

Don't jump up!

Don't tell me Venice has no lure

Don't wear corsets, they spoil the figure.

Don't wear powder, it ruins the complexion.

Don't worry about her. You think she's like you.

Don't worry, Gaston.

Don't you look well!

Don't you marvel at the power Of the mighty Eiffel Tower

Dreadful mistake? What are you talking about, Alicia?

Eating breakfast with a bib

English? I suppose we must.

Enough. Now run.

Enough. We must finish lunch and get on with your lessons.

Especially to the casino.

Especially you, dear Gaston.

Even to me. Isn’t that true, Manuel?

Everything I teach you...

Everything you are is love

Exquisite little birds.

Fine, Gaston. And the better for seeing you.

For a woman to go out with you alone now...

For Gigi's lessons, of course.

For little girls

For little girls

For little girls

For little girls

For little girls

For little girls Get bigger every day

For little girls Get bigger every day

For little girls!

For me this evening

For the dignity of man

For whom the bells have never tolled

For years, you've been giving her candies and trinkets...

For you, it was different.

Forevermore is shorter than before

Four yards of material in the skirt.

From now on, dear sister...

From the bottom of my heart, goodbye.

Fully recovered, according to late morning editions.

GASTON [SINGS]: She's a lovable one tonight, isn't she?

Gaston and Liane are joining me here at Maxim's tonight.

Gaston is such a dear man.

Gaston, couldn't we go on just as we are?

Gaston, do tell me. Please!

Gaston, Gigi takes advantage of you.

Gaston, I have been thinking.

Gaston, my love.

Gaston, please.

Gaston, won't you tell me what I've done wrong?

Gaston, you know my friendship for you.

Gaston, you spoil her so.

GASTON: I beg your pardon?

GASTON: I knew she was up to something.

GASTON: Mamita, what does this mean?

GASTON: Smells awfully good.

GASTON: Stop.

Gaston!

Gaston!

Gaston!

Gaston!

Gaston?

Gaston.

Gaston...

Gaston....

Get on with your work.

Getting older, it is true Which is what they always do

Gigi

Gigi is my granddaughter.

Gigi is perhaps a little slow about certain things...

Gigi, go to your room for a moment.

Gigi, I heard that. Where are your manners?

Gigi, please listen to me!

Gigi, where have you been?

Gigi, you are absurd

Gigi, you'll drive us wild

GIGI: I don't understand.

Gigi!

Gigi!

Gigi!

Gigi!

Gigi!

Gigi!

Gigi!

Gigi!

Gigi?

Gigi?

Gigi....

Gigi....

Gigi's mother has neither the time nor the mind to take care of her.

Gigi's not at home?

Given to her by the man she loves...

Go on eating while you answer my questions.

Good afternoon.

Good day, Aunt Alicia.

Good evening, Honoré.

Good for bouncing on your knee I am positive that she

Good for bouncing on your knee I am positive that she

Good night. Good night.

Good. I have an important business matter to discuss with you.

Good. I'm delighted the deadly affair is over.

Goodbye, Honoré.

Grandmama and Aunt Alicia are on your side, but this concerns me too.

Grandmama says going out distracts one from more serious matters.

Grandmama, please.

Grandmama, we go to Trouville.

GRANDMAMA: Gaston, what a nice surprise.

GRANDMAMA: Honoré? Yes.

GRANDMAMA: I was just preparing dinner.

GRANDMAMA: Oh, Gaston!

GRANDMAMA: What happened?

Grandmama!

Grandmama! Gaston wants to take me to tea at the Reservoirs.

Great kings do not give very large stones.

Has ever been as happy As we are tonight

Has made you the way you are?

Have a piece of cheese.

Have I been standing up too close

Have I been standing up too close

Have you gone mad? How dare you speak to Gaston like that?

Haven't you ever seen an ice rink?

He has diabetes.

He just left. But he wants to have dinner with her this evening.

He said a suitable house on the Avenue du Bois.

He said she would be spoiled as no other woman has been before.

He suggested that you and I and our lawyer...

He'll do it very well.

He's an excellent teacher. I made amazing progress.

Heaven knows, I'm not jealous. Thank you for that.

Hello, Grandma

Hello, Grandmama.

Her grandmother was delighted.

Here are some others to behold

Here is a girl, living in a moldy apartment, decaying walls...

Here, put this in your mouth.

History.

Hold on to your ideals.

HONORÉ: Gaston, my boy.

HONORÉ: Gaston!

HONORÉ: What an evening.

House, car, servants, clothes...

How beautiful.

How can you be rude to Gaston when he's been so good to us?

How delicious!

How depressing.

How did I do that?

How did it happen? She changed her mind?

How do you know about that?

How do you know Madame Dunard?

How does your sister look? Still as young as ever?

How is Honoré these days?

How is your sister? I haven't seen her for quite a while.

How marvelous!

How she blushes How she gushes

How she fills me with ennui

How was Monte Carlo this year?

How would you end it?

How young and gay

Hurry up, Manuel.

I am certain He will never call again

I am Honoré Lachaille.

I beg of you, wait. She'll apologize.

I beg of you, you embarrass me.

I beg your pardon, Monsieur Gaston. Your father wanted me to ask you...

I brought you some caramels.

I came over to get away from the telephone.

I came prepared for battle...

I came with Gaston and Gigi.

I can feel it.

I can't wait to see the face of the janitress.

I cannot remember When I have been more amused

I certainly will not. This is a beautiful dress.

I couldn't tell her that.

I didn't know he left her.

I didn't know he would be at Trouville.

I didn't see it properly, and perhaps I was a bit cruel.

I don't know any other way.

I don't know what you want. You told Grandmama

I don't know. I should consider what I do next very carefully.

I don't remember it all by heart.

I don't take any, but be sure and always ask about cream and sugar.

I don't think she was your type anyhow, Honoré.

I don't understand

I don't understand

I don't understand how Parisians

I don't understand the Parisians

I don't understand the Parisians

I don't understand the Parisians

I don't understand the Parisians!

I don't want any discussions. For 1000 francs, this never happened.

I don't want to contradict you, and I don't want to argue about it.

I don't want to go home yet!

I don't want to.

I doubt if I'll ever be able to.

I had to do something. And what I did was the soprano.

I hate this coat. It makes my legs feel so long.

I have a present for

I have to talk to Gaston about something.

I haven't known it very long.

I haven't seen him this chipper in years.

I heard that too.

I knew

I know about the woman who stole money from you.

I know all about Madame Dunard. Do you see her pearls?

I know what I have...

I know what I told your grandmother. We don't have to repeat it.

I mean she doesn't want to!

I mean, she has no material ambition.

I negotiated with them myself once.

I never want to see you again.

I offered her everything:

I only keep him to prevent him from talking to others.

I pity you! I pity you all!

I received a note from Gigi. She said she wanted to see me.

I remember it well

I remember it well

I remember it well

I remember it well

I remember it well

I remember it well

I should never have believed this of you. Never!

I suppose it's to be expected.

I think so. I'm not quite sure.

I thought I was doing so well. What's the matter?

I thought it would.

I thought we'd meet Honoré at Maxim's and

I understand responsibility to Gigi better than you.

I understand. He should send a present before tonight.

I waited for you at the embassy last Sunday. What happened?

I was afraid I'd meet my brother and sister in law.

I was all in blue

I was mad not to have seen

I was on time

I was refused, rejected, rebuffed...

I went to see her one night. I couldn't even find her.

I would suggest a redhead.

I wouldn't go back for anything in the world.

I'd be happy to demonstrate both.

I'd love to.

I'd rather be miserable with you than without you.

I'd rather play you for candy.

I'll call her at once.

I'll do all I can to entrust her only to a man who'll be able to say:

I'll let you know when I'll be in for my next lesson.

I'll take care of her. I'll answer for her future.

I'll tell you about that blue villa, Mamita.

I'm always on my own.

I'm dying to take a ride in your beautiful automobile.

I'm giving a small party...

I'm glad I'm not young anymore

I'm glad I'm not young anymore

I'm glad that I'm not young anymore

I'm glad to be rid of her. What do we do today?

I'm having a small party for 200 at the Eiffel Tower.

I'm in love with you.

I'm meeting a heavenly creature there.

I'm not changeable. That won't do for me.

I'm not going to woo her on ice.

I'm not sure I don't agree with her.

I'm so happy for you. I can't wait to tell Manuel.

I'm so happy when I'm with you.

I'm sorry I kept you waiting, Uncle. Why didn't you come upstairs?

I'm sorry to hear it. A little salad?

I'm sorry, Gaston.

I'm sure he didn't mean to be evasive or ungenerous.

I'm told Verdi felt that way after the first performance of Aida.

I've been weighing the idea of going to the country for a while.

I've decided your new dress may not be as bad as all that.

I've never been so comfortable before

If I have a little girl, I'll see to it she's more respectful than you.

If I lose, what would you really like? Silk stockings?

If I may say so, much better than your taste in clothes.

If it were just you and I, I would say:

If that's your ambition...

If you feel you are protecting Gigi from some cruel fate, that's your affair.

If you leave, they will, you know.

If you want to. Here.

Imagine this if you can:

Imagine! Marriage, me.

Imagine. Gaston bought out the opera last night...

In every way

In her eyes tonight

In Maxim's, everybody minds his own business.

In Monte Carlo.

In my opinion, it's because they don't feel they have to.

In spite of all her youthful zeal

In the first act...

In the second act...

In those pathetic rags they wear

In you

In your chair.

Incredible! Where is she?

Indecision is a bore

Insinuate yourself.

Instead, I had tea with an old friend, Madame Alvarez.

Is everybody celebrated Full of sin and dissipated?

Is fly to the sky on champagne

Is it hot enough to blister? Will I be your little sister?

Is it Jacques, is it Paul or Léon?

Is more beautiful than ever before

Is that gold?

Is that passion never going to end?

Is that the scandalous Madame d'Exelmans?

Is this the education she gets from you and your sister?

Isn’t it a shame Isn’t it a crime

Isn’t she a mess Isn’t she a sight

Isn’t there?

Isn’t there?

It amuses me.

It could be any one of those girls playing there. But it isn't.

It doesn't make her a princess.

It doesn't matter why.

It isn't absolutely necessary, if you'd rather not.

It isn't you. It's here.

It makes a difference to Gigi. And I'll tell you something:

It makes you look like a giraffe with a goiter.

It may be a blessing in disguise. It gives us time.

It must be your fault. It must be.

It warms my heart To know that you

It was a dreadful mistake.

It was a shock, in fact, to me

It was a stunning victory.

It was impossible to get any goose this week.

It was just a coincidence, my meeting madame here.

It's a bore

It's a bore

It's a bore!

It's a bore!

It's a bore!

It's a chance. But a chance that we must take.

It's a game

It's a gay, romantic fling

It's a present for you.

It's a yellow diamond of the first quality.

It's about one in particular.

It's absolutely silly.

It's all right, Mamita. It's all right.

It's always a pleasure to watch the rich...

It's always the same. It can't compare...

It's impossible.

It's incredible.

It's just a matter of time now.

It's just a matter of time now.

It's just that I haven't got a world famous sort of nature.

It's no one's fault. You're too good for her.

It's not important.

It's not impossible. It just happened.

It's not your fault you're world famous.

It's out of the question.

It's pride.

It's red or white

It's the glory of romance...

It's the one place in Paris where I can go and relax.

It's the same dull world Wherever you go

It's the same thing, only sugar is healthier.

It's the sophisticated women who get boring so quickly.

It's too early to go home yet.

It's Tuesday.

Just a child

Just a snip

Just a town without a sewer

Just as it should be.

Just one reluctant reply

Just the sort of thing Honoré used to wear.

Keep on saying

Knowing there it will remain evermore

Lady, goodbye

Last week, she taught her to eat cold lobster...

Later. I'd rather dance with you.

Let her gush and jabber

Let me take it over and deliver it.

Let us say she would be labeled.

Let's invite them out tomorrow night

Liane d'Exelmans has committed suicide. Again!

Liane, you deceived me with a skating instructor.

LIANE: Hello, my darling.

Life is thrilling as can be

Like everyone in Paris, we were just talking about you.

Like everywhere else, most people in Paris get married.

Like this, Aunt?

Like this.

Like what?

Like what?

Listen to your uncle, Monsieur Gaston. He's an old campaigner.

Living in the past must agree with her.

Look at all the captivating Fascinating things there are to do

Look at all the pleasures

Look, Gaston.

Look.

Love, my dear Gigi...

Lover and collector of beautiful things.

Madame, will you do me the honor...

Mademoiselle Monique and the weight lifter...

Making dreadful baby noise Having fun with all her toys

Making love every time They get a chance

Mama's awake. Isn't it early?

Mamita, this is absurd.

Marriage is not forbidden to us.

Married? What for?

Marvelous!

Maxim's, Moulin Rouge, Pre Catalan.

May I add mine, sir?

May I have a glass of champagne?

May I stay up late for supper? Is it awfully, awfully upper?

Maybe it's the women you go with. How old is Liane?

Maybe seeing each other a little more often?

Me, I'm here on very important business.

Methuselah is my patron saint

Monsieur Lachaille, about the car.

Monsieur Lachaille, what a surprise. I am honored.

More than just one, I hope.

Most disagreeable.

Much older. I don't envy him.

My car's downstairs. I'll send the chauffeur with my apologies.

My congratulations to you both.

My dear Mr. Lachaille. What a pleasant surprise.

My dear sister...

My dear, dear, dear boy.

My foot fell asleep in class. It wouldn't wake up.

My friendship and my gratitude.

My heart was touched. I wanted to help her.

My word!

Name two

Napoleon's defeat at Waterloo.

Neither do I.

Never tire of walking hand in hand

Never.

No aggravation

No matter where No matter who

No more confusion

No more frustration

No morning after surprise

No newspapers. No scandal.

No one is the slightest bit interested in whom one is with.

No question about it.

No reason at all. What did you do?

No star crossed lover am I

No woman or a man

No, but I'm calling for Madame d'Exelmans.

No, Grandmama.

No, no, no. For the next few weeks, you should be out every night.

No, no. That would be snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

No, not at all

No, not yet.

No, not your granddaughter.

No, thank you.

No, thank you.

No, thank you. But I would love a cup of your chamomile tea.

No, thank you. I have an appointment...

No, thank you. I've had enough of that for today.

No, the coffeepot first!

No, you were late

No, you're not.

No!

No.

No. I was really desperate.

No. Not the same mistake twice.

No. Silk stockings make my legs itch.

No. The champagne is for you.

No. This is Tuesday.

None.

Nonsense.

Nor as easy to cheat.

Not antiques, mind you.

Not at all.

Not at all. I'd love it. Believe it or not...

Not Bonaparte

Not compared to her.

Not even a respectable young girl.

Not if it's ruined at the beginning through lack of tact.

Not lately.

Not only gay and beautiful, but in one thing unique:

Not only will he not give it

Not the last evening we spent together.

Not until Gigi is old enough to have secrets and admirers.

Not you

Nothing to look forward to but abject poverty.

Nothing.

Now bite up each piece.

Now give it to me.

Now let's go into luncheon.

Now pour...

Now rise and exit the same way.

Now turn...

Now watch me.

Now you want to take her in your automobile to the Reservoirs for tea.

Now, can I get you your chamomile tea, Gaston?

Now, for example, here we find exhibit A:

Now, go on.

Now, go on. Go on, go on!

Now, let us recapitulate.

Now, let us see what you remember.

Now, let us see what you remember.

Now, let's see.

Now, not another word

Now, you will try it once more.

Now...

Obviously, that disgusting apartment she lives in has driven her mad.

Obviously.

Oddly enough, I'm not quite sure.

Of course they were.

Of course you don't smoke cigars.

Of course you don't.

Of course, I must in truth confess

Of course, that weekend in Trouville

Of course, the roulette wheel won't be as easy to beat as you are.

Of course, the smaller is a first rate machine, monsieur.

Of course.

Of course.

Of course.

Of course.

Of course. I know she will.

Of the pleasure you would miss

Oh, come, Gaston, cheer up.

Oh, dear! Are they difficult?

Oh, Gaston!
