filmmaker who ever lived and what film documentary maker he makes his living

sh**ting fish with a g*n who used to be the camera this guy's a genius he's a

poet he's a composer he still shoots fish every film he makes is a

masterpiece of color and rhythm he's discovered a new world down there and a new way of presenting it he's great he's

welcome to it I can't stand my head underwater you just don't like water

period yeah well what does she do well

aside from providing the cash she's is underwater leading lady if you ask me he's a q*eer kind of a fish himself why

if you had a wife like that would you ask for separate rooms well he may have

his reasons he does my husband likes to sit up all night

working and I like to sleep sometimes satisfied gentlemen I'd like a new

mosquito netting please the one over my beds like a Swiss cheese yes ma'am

big mouth yeah well I'll tell you one thing if she was

my wife she would he isn't

[Music]

oh hello settle down have you made up your mind about what you know what I

mean thank you better go away Andre I don't

leave this room until I get an answer well tomato man listen and then there's our workers finished here then are you

coming away with me make it sound so attractive with that scowl on your face well I'm not in the

mood for joking Garland obviously you're behaving like a child

I'll get out before Michel finds you here and what if you did that would he

care I tell you if you leave him in ten days he will not notice you're a g*n he's not a man is a machine listen

little man two words of advice don't underestimate Michel and don't

overestimate yourself and what does that mean it means you could be expendable

Andre I got along without you for 25 years remember this is not what you said

a few weeks ago but it's what I'm saying now don't live in the past Andre it

never works that's the future that I'm thinking of I can't go on like this I want no one is forcing you to so what

must I do well forget everything that's happened go on working like before just sit by and watch until the next one

comes along get out Andre oh yes get out Andre I

have had my fun no I'm bored and I don't live in the past on the right get on

with your work no I'm not that kind of man will you please get out of here and leave me

alone all right if you want Dylan maybe

happen you think he believed I would see you did but Andre if he did believe it he'd

k*ll you yeah dad you are has all our

equipment been checked out well my cameras are all right groupers looking at his stuff now good

well once wow I'm great wasn't there something you wanted to say to me shell

what's why

he's something to Mack it with you you should know about Gallic temperament me shaft know about tomorrow's work

well hello Andre miss paint your room again you want to be careful you know

join me in a drink I've got a drink in my room sir

[Music] well so much for the work I've had a

chat with that Troy fellow you should type unusually good and handsome too I

like him I think it should be very pleasant here

is something worried you can how important is andré Michaux important to

whom do you of course for the work he's an excellent swimmer he's fearless

he has learned the camera work fast why if I suggested that it might be a good

idea to let him go after this trip without to know why and so I imagine

would eat I think it might be easier is

he being a nuisance you are asking me to

take very strong action I'm not asking I just wondered you tell me he's irreplaceable what I'll forget

it no one needs irreplaceable [Music]

not even me with night [Music]

[Music]

just pick them up I can hear their breath bubbles the collage in VR Lester

two mermaids down there exactly what is this thing I mean what does it do well that's very easy to answer if you got a

few weeks to spare well actually it's it's sort of a shotgun wedding between sonar and a

common or garden type tape recorder it's unique because of its small size which is possible through miniaturization it

hears reports and records what is it report fish talk oh yes I've

heard about undersea recordings but I've never seen the equipment down here it's dog you really believe that communicate

why not I'll play you some tapes later you understand what they say not yet but

I will one day hello bother to hide that smile bigger

brains and you think I'm nuts oh and I don't have to say I'm used to it but not

so long ago I kept a porpoise in California shark is trainer by squeaking out some quite intelligible English

words minor birds do it in Paris right so if animals and birds pick up words from our language is it so impossible

they might have languages of their own but fish underwater both they can

breathe underwater why can't they talk I mean maybe they think the same about us how can those two-legged masters talking

that suffocating air what do you suppose fish fine to talk about well the same

thing as we do worst weather food sex may be the only thing they don't have to

worry about is money lucky fish if you really believe in this don't you sure I do

and so will you if you stick around long enough and of course the goal is

believes in it gosh why he can practically talk to them himself he's an

amazing man isn't he lacrosse is a dedicated pioneer did you know that we know more about outer space and we do

about our own oceans in fact I did if you ask me our man like like Rogers is doing more for the human race and than

any astronaut falling around the earth and a lump of Steel how did you ever come to be associated with it me uh-huh I guess I couldn't

help but I I was born with a fish's name for a start groupers a fish you know I've met one or two ugly brutes do then

I was called fish face in school so right from the start fish had me seemed to have something in common but then I met look Raj and that

settle it you really admire him don't you I'd drowned for him but let's see

where they out of shall we [Music]

there's a big ray down there buddy nuts indicated sighs be Sogeti Angela lady

course besides he told me so himself

oh yeah

all right having a day off that's for once I'm just getting stock

material today tomorrow you have to find me an octopus a big one

dr. piss what for because in this film I have to encounter a k*ller octopus you

know the same but deadly tentacles reach out and grab me Michel to the rescue will he hack them off in time and by

some type of coincidence Andre is there with his camera to record it all now you're not really gonna take on a k*ller

octopus if we can find one to take me on they're very timid creatures really

rather you than me much rather it has to be a girl you're not pretty enough not a

minute you're always striding around looking like Lord Nelson

that's a husband worried about you doing all this stuff Michel I don't think so we're much

better armed than the fish you know he hates it but for different reasons

hmm he's a scientist not a businessman

from his point of view this is all a fraud and a waste of time and from his point of view of course he's right why

do like that cuz it's my money and like most rich people and to mean to throw it away the public demands sex action and

swirling bubbles so I say that we give it to them I don't see you as a businesswoman well

I've got something of my forebears in me you just do it for kicks I do what I

like Oh

what about you why does a man like you hide himself away down here I'm not

hiding down I like it Mary no surprised nobody's hooked you

know Tyson well just opposed yeah I

thought of leaving this little paradise here and taking on a new line of endeavor like what like taking on a

k*ller octopus no thanks we'll talk

about sometime [Applause] [Music]

a present morning anything interesting nothing we did see a good beaker a down

there just now about 300 pounds uh-huh okay you win we pause now for station

identification

[Music]

back to adventures in paradise brought to you by

a small fish big fast scared of

something cannibals could be here that paper

booming yes no wonder they were scared that's a shark and a big one yeah there

he goes right under us and away oh here endeth the first lesson

impressed why did it have to be a shark the Sharks and all these lagoons oh not

like the anisa lagoon big shark I'll never get past the reef this one might have come in with you but with the tikki

someone might have thrown some swill overboard yeah but why a shark why not some other big fish like that a grouper

no all big fish have their own characteristic noises remember the Ray

it's getting late you want to hear the tape before I turn it okay now you must

realize of course that it is only what practice that you get to learn to recognize certain sounds I mean to you this might sound like

we're like that all radio of penrose is full of screeches squawks and interference okay here we go deeper

sound is interested come here see now

we're gonna turn on some light - that will scare they go and if that's not

talking I'd like to know what it is it's not what you said a few weeks ago I

don't live in the past Andre it never works that's the future that I'm thinking of I

can't go on like this I want nobody's forcing so what must I do well forget about

everything that's happened who on working like before just sit by and watch until the next one comes along but

you only listened it on fish that's right especially when a sucker's hooked you let me hear that deliberately yes I

recorded it last night when I was checking out my equipment in the room next to Carol's why did you play it back

to me now you're no fool joy you know why I may be tense but I don't it's none

of my business it will be how do you drive here you really don't know I said

so didn't I well maybe you don't at that bike with fish one becomes an expert at

the early recognition of signs and portents it was a warning joy number one

keep off the hook she's preparing the bait already hey get off your rocker I

wish I was madame legrasse collects odd fish she wants you in her aquarium Troi

but makes you any happier I don't collect so easily she's very hard to refuse that woman is

ruthless cunning an attractive unless you're forewarned it can be a deadly mix Jim listen Gruber I think you're out of

line what business is this of yours anyway Michele as you may have gathered

I look on him rather as a god but the trouble with some gods is they're so far removed from earthly things they don't

notice everything that goes on around him I mean he has no idea none at all about this or any of the others

it would break him and as long as I'm here to stop it I won't let that happen

I'm sorry shame so devoted to and so happy have you ever noticed how often

the blind are happy well don't worry about me I'd like to do my own fishing which will intrigue or even more so

please be careful midnight I better get back to the hotel I'll draw you in the

pier don't bother I can roll myself back in the day

[Music] goodnight

[Music]

[Music] [Applause] [Music]

well you're supposed to reach out your hand and help the lady over the side

sure dive in and swim back Oh waiter

than a nice buzz off with a lady a drink Carol its we're closed this after-hours

I'm not kidding Caroline what's gonna go ashore you guys I'm dripping I'm up about you

leave oh you know something I lied this morning you really are rather pretty I still

have to go yes well that's nice and brisk may I ask why

for a start because I like and admire your husband so do i define man don't you go back to him stop acting like a

like a what wealthy Playgirl who grabs what she can

and buys what she can't grab you said it not me what makes a Playgirl out and

they born that where there's nothing it happens to them you tell me gladly you lead to shelter life down

here oh you've heard about as the poor girl who marries the rich man for his

money what about the poor man who marries the rich girl for hers I don't believe a man like the cause

would ever marry a woman like you for her money oh look but nothing a woman like me I

would starry-eyed when I fell in love with Michelle I thought he was the greatest man that ever lived but he

isn't he's just cold-blooded as the fish he photographs he couldn't love a woman

the way she needs to be loved he doesn't know how he's kind and gentle and

considerate he's not on this earth at all his his

heart his underwater why don't you leave because I'm fond of him and he needs me

and he wouldn't understand poor dear I don't want to hurt him

I just had to change my whole outlook on

life and learn that you have to compromise to live so you became a

collector collector groper has been

playing nursemaid again

at least you've never said anything to me show

now I'll go short no wait a minute you need a drink sit down I want to talk to you Oh No hi I'm leaving alright I'll row

you don't bother I can go back the way I came no you better not go in the water group

who says there's a shark in a lagoon don't believe everything Grouper tells you he's been known to be wrong

Lord Nelson beside sharks rarely attack

their own kind wait [Music]

Monsieur the cause we hunting an octopus today or the moment we are hunting for my wife you have not seen I suppose

find it well who saw her last and when I say captain Choi did Andre what is this

ask him got a left our room last night and swam across to the Tiki I saw her

dog he's true yes is she still there oh of course I should just stayed a few minutes with went back

well what did she want with you she said she couldn't sleep well why do you make a mystery of it why did you not say so I

don't think it was important now then so she came just for a few minutes are they went back again that's what I said

that's what you admit that went first that's the truth how did you get back

same where she came she swam you let her swim back I offered the rower but you

just don't you let her after what we heard last night I couldn't stop her what what is this there's a shark in the

lagoon I tracked it distinctly and I told him so I mean why won't people listen to me why be quiet there is

nothing to be gained by blaming anyone get your gear we will search the lagoon on the Walker

so that's the end of the mystery maybe

poor Dame a compensation the old law works every time I know I shouldn't talk

like that but I was never any good at hiding my feelings I'm glad she's dead he's better off without her oh he

doesn't care anything about her money at least now he can carry on with his work with without the humiliation of being

left flat he was loyal she never would have left him of course she would she stick with one man never it could have

happened any time look shut up sure sure I'll shove all natives have that shark

hanging on the end of the dock looks like they're gonna be having a feast between you and me Troy I feel like

joining them it's not a feast grouper it's an autopsy

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

I'm tiny Disher yes I was there

[Music] or the police police what

[Music] respective Bhushan please inspector Adam

Troy I wanted to keep you advised my EE Clause does not return - no one hears her yes I'll let you know you gone crazy

why don't you tell him about the shock [Music] because Penrose that shark had hidden

nothing but fish in the past 24 hours so what did happen to care

[Music]

who's that Oh Troy what is it sorry wrong serves as a mother for the

court oh this is an excellent out there

[Music]

[Music] yes captain Troy you aren't outside just

now hey something happened I'm afraid so what I don't know yet you see something

to do with my wife I don't know that either I can't speculate just now

inside of trouble you talk later of course [Music]

do you wish me to come with you no [Music]

far side of those rocks there and then to the shore man I was having such a

great three two

[Music]

what's this all about Cooper will wait for dawn [Music]

all set skipper [Music]

[Music]

[Music]

Adam what [Music]

what I'm to him he cut his own hair too

[Music] embolus

go ahead really I I didn't hate you only

he's hurt under it you know all the others then you I didn't say she she had no

heart she was hard better dead joy don't tell him look Raj

he's alone now and he's free lasted a

[Music] second back to the village

he probably k*lled her just after she swam back from calling on me that night

hid her body in the jungle yesterday when we heard about the shark he hoped no more questions would be asked last

night he decided to put another g*n so I took a boat and rowed out well you know

the rest but why why would you tell Hodges he hated her he was terrified of

the idea that she might leave you and ruin your life and work prayed on his mind she would never have letters Cooper

didn't believe that he didn't understand you or your wife she was a very loyal person

you say that with great sincerity captain Troy I mean it don't care what

Cooper thought about Andre and all the others in you of course

do I look such a fool but why did he have to do it why didn't he talk to me

he imagined that I did not know her why I knew her every little softened desire

I knew who her lovers would be even before she did you look shocked maybe

you did send her away that night I didn't send her where she went by herself of course you are young you have

your ideals stick to them perhaps you will be lucky some people are others like myself after

learn the art of compromise why do you look like that strange isn't efficient

of course that's exactly what she said to me about you [Music]
