Delphine I'm not stubborn. Life is stubborn toward me.

Delphine You talk of showing things... I don't know, I don't have anything. Things aren't obvious to me. I'm not normal, like you. When I make an effort I try to listen, to talk to people. I listen, I watch what's going on. If people don't come to me it's because I'm worthless and... if I had something to show, people would see it, that's all.

Delphine [crying about her problems] I'm forgetting them. I didn't think of them. You talk of showing things... I don't know, I don't have anything. If I had something to show, people would see it, that's all!

Delphine At the moment, I'm the one who chose to be - to be single until I find someone I could be with. If you just get together with someone when you're lonely, just for the sake of it, I think you feel lonelier afterwards than before. When you go home at night and you've slept with some guy, knowing neither of you cares at all, then nobody is satisfied. I find that much more horrible than loneliness. Gradually it becomes a way of living. You live alone for a long time and you totally stop seeing guys. It might drive you crazy, but at least, within yourself, you keep a certain purity. You preserve the little energy you have. You keep on dreaming and waiting. It's better to wait for something than settle for reality. And spoil your hopes. I talk a lot without expecting much.

Isa in Biarritz Have you seen the green ray?

Mrs. Christlein in Biarritz I have. three times in fact. The first time I was eight or nine. That was at La Baule. Do you know it?

Isa in Biarritz No.

Mrs. Christlein in Biarritz There is a very, very beautiful Long Beach, seven kilometers, I think. I was with my father at the time and he told me about Jules Verne's book. And it was a very clear day. The air was dry. There were no clouds. He said to me perhaps we'll be in luck. I did see it that time. But only for a split second. When the sun set on the horizon, at the last stage, there was a sort of shaft of light, pale green in color and like the blade of a sword along the horizon. It was very pretty, but very short.

Lena in Biarritz To find the right person, someone who is good, you shouldn't show your feelings straightaway.

Delphine What do you reveal about yourself?

Lena in Biarritz I live my life. I have fun. And I see how others react. Then I decide: is it good or is it bad? It's like a card game. You shouldn't give away what you have in your hand.

Delphine I have nothing in my hand.

Yve in Biarritz Do you know what Jules Verne said? He said when you see the green ray, you can read your own feelings and those of others.

Mrs. Christlein in Biarritz That's marvelous. So we would have heightened perceptions on seeing the green ray.

Yve in Biarritz Which is what happens to the heroine, although she never sees the green ray. But, who manages to understand her own feelings and those of the young man she meets.

Delphine I sometimes find cards in the street.

Beatrice in Paris Often?

Delphine Sometimes, when I least expect it. I'm just walking along and I find a card. It always means something. Like on the way to my sister's, I found a queen of spades. The queen of spades is bad luck.

Manuella in Paris Yes.

Delphine Do you know the meanings?

Manuella in Paris Some of them.

Delphine I was attracted to it. What's more, the card was green. Which is weird because I had a friend who is a medium. He told me green would be my color of the year. It's strange because since then, and maybe I'm just noticing it now, I keep finding little green things. So on the way to my sister's I spotted a little green card, next to a green lamppost, and I was dressed in green.

Manuella in Paris Maybe you'll meet a little green man!

Beatrice in Paris I didn't know there was someone in your life. Sorry, I just thought you seemed as if you needed to change a few things. I didn't know. I thought you had no one now and that you needed to do something about it. I take an aggressive approach to helping my friends. I've been even harder before. I was forced to slap a friend once to make her laugh!

Manuella in Paris Listen, Delphine, you know it's all over with Jean-Pierre. Either you need to meet someone or you'll stay alone with your memories. Don't you want to meet someone?

Dr. Christlein in Biarritz Look at the sun there. It is not exactly where you see it. In reality, it is a little bit lower down. Because the sun's rays curve in the atmosphere. The closer the sun comes to the horizon, the greater the diffraction in the atmosphere. And when the sun seems to touch the horizon, in reality, it is already behind the horizon. So the solar disk appears slightly raised. Perhaps half a degree. That's the first reason why the green ray exists. The second reason is that there is also a dispersion of colors. Like in a prism. When light passes through a prism, a spectrum is created. The color that is most curved is blue.

Maria in Biarritz I was going to say green.

Dr. Christlein in Biarritz Green is close to blue, isn't it. There is red, yellow, then green. And blue and violet. Blue and violet are very weak. The colors we can observe very well are yellow and green. When the sun sets, at that moment the disk is slightly raised. But the blue colors and green colors are higher than the red colors. When the disk disappears on the horizon, the last ray we perceive is the green.

Mrs. Christlein in Biarritz And a lovely green it is.
