The Unbearable Lightness of Being

Ha ha ha ha ha!

Oh...

Ha! Ha ha ha ha!

Oh...

Take off your clothes.

What?

I said, take off your clothes.

But you saw everything last night.

Mm, but I need to check something.

Shh.

Only for 3 seconds.

The bastard.

How does he do it?

1...2...

3.

I've got to go.

Don't you ever spend the night

at the woman's place?

Never.

What about when a woman is at your place?

I tell her I get insomnia...

Anything.

Besides, I have a very narrow bed.

Are you afraid of women, doctor?

Of course.

I really like you, Tomas.

You are the complete opposite of kitsch.

In the kingdom of kitsch,

you would be...

A monster.

No, wait.

Sabina, I've got to go.

Ah!

Ha ha ha!

Oh...

Oh...oh...

No, wait. Wait.

Ha ha!

Now. What am I?

Ha ha ha ha!

Grrr...a monster.

Ha ha ha!

Room 6.

Here we go.

Oh! Oh...

Ah...

Oh...

Oh!

Oh, cognac.

Can you charge it to my room?

Yes, of course.

Oh, that's funny.

You're in room 6.

So?

And my shift finishes at 6:00.

And at 6:00,

I have to be back in Prague.

Well...

Around 6:00.

Oh, I'll be back.

Wait.

Wait.

* lo lo lo *

* lo lo lo lo lo... *

You know, this is my bench.

Your bench?

Yes, I come here every day to read,

to this same bench.

Isn't that funny?

Yes.

What are you reading?

Anna Karenina, by Tolstoy.

Oh, yes,

that Anna Karenina.

Yeah.

I would have come earlier,

but...my mother...

You live with your mother?

Well, I've checked out of my room.

Are you leaving?

Yes, it's getting late.

I just came for an operation.

A colleague of mine was supposed to come,

but he injured himself, so...

Well...

Maybe I'll come back sometime.

Why would you come back here?

It's so boring.

Nobody here reads.

Nobody here discusses anything.

You know what I mean?

Yes.

Yes, I do.

Well.

Nice to meet you.

Goodbye.

Tomas.

Tomas.

Are you only searching for pleasure?

Or is every woman a new land

whose secrets you want to discover?

You want to know what she's going to say

when she makes love?

Or how she will smile?

How she will whisper?

Groan...scream?

Maybe the very smallest... Unimaginable details...

Tiny things that make one woman

totally unlike any other.

What's my detail, doctor?

Your hat, Sabina.

The hat...

Comes from my grandfather's...

Grandfather.

He lived a long, long time ago.

A long time ago.

Tomas.

What are you looking at?

Your eyes.

Hello.

Hello.

So...

You are in Prague.

I just arrived.

I have friends to see.

I'm here on some business.

Mm-hmm.

I'm looking for another job.

Ha...

Why don't you come in?

Are you alone?

Yeah.

Take off your clothes.

Achoo!

Achoo!

Excuse me.

I must have caught a cold on the train.

Perhaps I better take a look at you.

Come here.

My hands cold?

I'm very ticklish.

Does it hurt there?

Look up.

Down.

Left.

Right.

Ha ha...

Don't worry.

I'm a doctor.

A bit higher.

That's it.

Breathe.

Again.

Cough.

That's fine.

Up we go.

Everything looks fine.

Fine.

Open your mouth.

Tongue.

Ah! Mmm...

Ooh!

Mmm! Mm!

Ah!

Aah!

Aah!

Aah!

Aah!

Hi.

Tomas?

They called from Geneva.

They are still offering you that job.

Why should I go to Geneva?

Everything's fine here.

Well...I hope so.

You think the Russians won't interfere?

Think about what happened in Hungary.

They couldn't. The world wouldn't allow it.

Besides, we have socialism with a human face.

Who could be against it?

Ah, my patient is here.

Which one? Pigs are not allowed.

I told him to wait in the truck.

But we will make an exception.

Hello, doctor. You are not angry with me

because I brought Mephisto?

Look, doctor, a gift for you.

Wonderful.

Oh, thank you! Hmm.

So...Pavel.

Ha ha!

We operated a month ago.

Yeah.

Any pains?

No.

Dizziness? Headaches?

No.

Good. You can get back to your farm.

We just need a small procedure

to replace the bone flap.
