Rues de Paris
Script by Emile Harven and M. J. MacDonald
Peter and Helen Lamb have arrived in Paris with their borrowed shooting-brake and are staying at a hotel near the Champ de Mars. As they want to call on a client who has his office in the Rue Saint-Lazare, they ask Maurice, the hall-porter, how to get there.
Les gants blancs, white gloves; tout droit, straight on; vous ne pouvez pas vous tromper, you can't go wrong; la rue sens unique, one-way street; j'y suis ne, / was born there; une droite, a straight line; autrement, otherwise; pardon, monsieur, pour aller a la gare, s'ii vous plait? pardon, monsieur, pouvez-vous m'indiquer le chemin pour la gare? excuse me, can you tell me the way to the station, please?; la sortie, way out, exit; la circulation, traffic; par Ie chemin le plus court, the quickest way; presse, in a hurry
