Wheel of Ashes (1968) Movie Script
- I present you with the
head of St. John the Baptist
- Fate, fate,
how can I accept you wearing
those strange clothes?
Fate, fate, hurry,
hurry, don't be late.
I cannot wait.
Fate, how can I connect
with you in your taxi cab
when I'm traveling by train.
One day we may fuck
together properly, deeply,
instead of regularly once a
week priced to new Francs.
Fate, fate, my staken
kidneys on your blade.
Let us dance
together on my palms.
What have I done wrong?
You think I do
not recognize you,
you with your
million dollar voice,
and your hemorrhaging shoes?
Fate, me old mate, arriving
by air freight, C.O.D.
You are laughing at me.
Sitting in your tree.
Floating face down in the sea.
Let us swim slowly
together, sifting the sands.
Oh destiny, lie next to me,
I cannot control myself.
And there is drizzle
in your sigh.
You with your oriental eyes,
Let us walk slowly
together to the chemist
and buy paradise.
You and I and him and them and
us and her and we are lovers.
We make magic, love, and music.
We have fun.
We don't make trouble.
Words are bubbles.
Blow some, maybe
I'll breath them in.
- And God is said to be
the absolute consciousness.
And we, our
consciousness is mixed
with our experiences
past and present,
and so I want to go
into my real nature of
higher consciousness,
for that you make some kind
of discipline upon yourself,
cutting off, as far as possible,
the best thing advantage,
the small things, so that you
can concentrate more and more.
Producing the impressions,
because every day I get
so many impressions,
all these things
take away my energy.
I don't want to pass off
energy in these things.
I want to go to my true
nature, which in reality
they call the pure
consciousness and with God
the ultimate reality.
In different languages,
the different religions,
different names are given,
but they are just an expansion
of this our God.
Take my love but
please don't break it
I'm gonna love you
'til the end of time
Oh baby baby be mine oh mine
Say you want me, it's alright
Say you love me, hold me tight
Never leave her,

Alright
Take my love but
please don't break it
I'm gonna love you
'til the end of time
Won't leave you baby
'til you're mine oh mine
Say you want me, it's alright.
Hold me, baby, hold me tight
Never leave her
You know I'll be alright
Alright

- Hi, Pierre.
What you have you been doing?
Pierre, I almost walked into
the prostitute downstairs.
Next door.
Pierre, David is dead.
He was killed by an
accident with a car.
How did you know?
Why doesn't it stop?
I got a job
Somebody likes me, you know.
Pierre, where's my pant?
I have to go.
I have to model tonight.
You want to meet me afterwards?
- No, I can't.
- Why can't you?
You don't have to
explain anything.
How do you like my dress?
Why are you sitting there?
You are the biggest mess
I ever saw in my life.
Why don't you come
and dance with me?
Come and dance with me.
Are you sad about that?
Do you want some more wine?
This is business.
Another thing.
I think I'm going
to have a baby.
I'm not coming
back here tomorrow.
I'm leaving here.
I can't wait for you forever.
I don't know what you're doing.
Oh really?
I'd like to.
Did they leave
the baby with you?
Oh, I'm just pregnant.
But I'll talk with you
about it when I see you.
When should I come?
Okay.
That'll be fine.
But where do I get the train?
Okay.
I'll see you tomorrow, then.
Ciao.
