Masculin féminin (1966), directed by Jean-Luc Godard.
PAUL: I want to live with you. You’ll stand me up tonight. The stars are falling. Madeleine, here we are in the big city. Madeleine, imagine something written like this: “Astor, the modern man’s cigarette.” Remember, you’d just climbed out of the pool. The same record was playing. Remember, remember. December 5, 1965. The stars. I want to live with you! Yes, a brunette in a bikini. We’ll play table football. Sure!
Look! This is the airfield. You put on your lipstick and hold me tight. We’ve taken off. “This is the control tower. Boeing 737 calling Caravelle. Paul calling Madeleine!”

Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you…
I know I know, it’s illogical to celebrate something you had nothing to do with, but I haven’t had the chance to congratulate you on your appointment to the ambassadorship so I thought I’d seize the occasion. Bravo, Spock — they tell me your first mission may take you away for awhile, so I’ll be the first to wish you luck. And to say…
I miss you, old friend.
I suppose I’d always imagined us outgrowing Starfleet together. Watching life swing us into our Emeritus years…
I look around at the new cadets now and can’t help thinking… has it really been so long? Wasn’t it only yesterday we stepped onto the Enterprise as boys? That I had to prove to the crew I deserved command… and their respect?
I know what you’d say — ‘It’s their turn now, Jim…’ And of course you’re right.
But it got me thinking: Who’s to say we can’t go one more round? By the last tally, only twenty-five percent of the galaxy’s been chartered… I’d call that negligent. Criminal even — an invitation.
You once said being a starship captain was my first, best destiny. If that’s true, then yours is to be by my side. If there’s any true logic to the universe… we’ll end up on that bridge again someday.
Admit it, Spock. For people like us, the journey itself… is home.
