The Big Blue - Version Longue

Scene 41.

Jacques - Hello

Johana - Jacques, it's Johana

Jacques - How are you?

Johana - Good. I got fired.

Jacques - I got this job with Enzo - I got fired too.

Johana - (laughs) Really. That's strange!

Cut to later scene

Johana - Talk to me some more!

Jacques - It's hard, I don't know what else to say, you're so far away.

Johana - Tell me a story.

Jacques - a story? Do you know how it is... do you know what you are supposed to do to meet a mermaid?

Johana - no

Jacques - you go down to the bottom of the sea... the water isn't even blue any more, the sky is only a memory. you float there, in the silence. you stay there and you decide that you'll die for them. only then do they start coming out... they come and they greet you and they judge the love you have for them... if it's sincere, if it's pure... they'll be with you and take you away for ever.

Johana - I like that story.

That's my ex-agua's favorite movie. Maybe I was the Piscean fish that slipped away.
