Chantale stops the auto near a phone booth. |
 |
Chantale calling Jacques... (where? wasn't he just
under a bridge, wearing a sport shirt? He wasn't likely to be carrying around a cellphone in 1983 Paris.) |
 |
Giving him the details of Danielle's escape, while
the singer watches in the left foreground. |
 |
Jacques, highly animated, running through Paris, in a
suit and tie (uh, sport shirt?) |
 |
Jacques makes something of an error in judgment if he
thinks this dude can help him in any way. But then, how does that make him different from the rest of The French? |
 |
Caption says it all. |
 |
Establishment of Chantale running through (a rather
ham-handedly established) Paris. She encounters what seems to be a group of incongruously Italian gentlemen playing a game of ersatz bocce. The surreality has really begun to kick in. |
 |
Far establishment of Chantale inquiring after
Danielle with the incongruously Italian gentlemen, with the keyboarder in the foreground, singer in background before the screen. I think there may have been a very brief, illegible
subtitle in this |
 |
Establishment of Jacques, still running, who comes
upon what he instinctively knows is what he's looking for. Plus, he knows that whatever the news is, it ain't good. |
 |
In typical French fashion, all the more they could do
was send one gendarme, apparently about four-foot nine, who could do no more than just stand there on the bridge and breathe air that the rest of us could be using. The Eiffel Tower, again,
hamhandedly establishes the locale |
 |
Jacques, reaction, looking down over bridge. |
 |
Chantale shows up... |
 |
and foolishly doesn't listen to her man telling her what to think. |
 |
Reaction, Chantale, looking over side of bridge. |
 |
Establishment of Doll, two pieces of wood, and what
seems to be an empty Evian bottle in the Seine. This capture
doesn't do the scene justice. It's really quite creepy |
 |
Reaction of Chatale, leaning against Jacques, in suit,
singer (now playing a guitar) in right foreground, watching screen. |
 |
FIN |
 |
Reaction of singer, having watched screen fade. |
 |
Establishment of final shot. |
 |
Natasha King (?) Danielle (?) standing in the doorway
of the studio, for some reason, smiling. Wearing the same outfit as when Danielle (ostensibly) jumped off the bridge. Or didn't. Crow said it best: "WHAT IS HAPPENING?" |
