  • I think the accent is supposed to be a mixture of many. She says she's Russian, raised in Poland, was taken to Morocco, lived in Paris with Cunegonde...

  • She's Russian! Not Polish!!! Watch part 6!!!

  • "how maddening, at this moment, to be a enuich!!" lmao

  • Shakira. Just saying..

  • @jookyle and german

  • please please can you write what the old lady is saying from 1:08 to 1:29

  • @AuroraOnVenice They say:

    Old Lady: And, as his lips met mine, he gave the most heartfelt sigh . . .

    Candide: A sigh?

    Old Lady: He moaned, he muttered between his teeth and then, tears streaming from his eyes — they were blue — he spoke.

    Candide: What did he say?

    Old Lady: He said: How maddening at this moment to be a eunuch!

  • @madlovba2 THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

  • The guy wanted the younger Old Lady REALLY bad, but couldn't act upon it because he was a eunuch (castrated).

  • That lift at the end looks like way too much fun! And I don't imagine the guy lifting her was too upset with where his head was, either... Anybody know his name, by the way? I like his voice.
