What I Know about Mélanie

Appearance: medium height, slim, upright walk, big brown eyes, dark blond hair—a particular blond, reminiscent of shiny caramel candy, or brittle.

Often (always?) wears a scarlet knee-length coat. Old-fashioned cut.

Wears a gold ring with carved roses on her ring finger.

Always comes to the late show on Wednesdays.

Always sits in row seventeen.

Favorite film: Cyrano de Bergerac.

Has an aunt Lucille (Lucie? Luce?), who lives in Le Pouldu.

Was there for a week on vacation before she disappeared.

Obviously does not live on rue de Bourgogne (or does she?). Lives in Paris, in any case. (Also comes from Paris? Brittany?)

No family in Paris, has never been married (at least, that’s what she says), lives alone (completely alone!).

No pets, but likes cats.

Her last boyfriend cheated on her ( jade earring). Always meets the wrong men. (“I have a talent for falling in love with the wrong men.”)

Mother dead (the rose ring was hers); sad memories. Family? Men?

Her friend works in a hotel bar.

She works in an antiques store. Her boss is in the hospital with pneumonia (heavy smoker); there is one other colleague.

She works until 7:00 P.M., even later on Thursdays.

Shy at first sight, but also smart.

Likes old things.

Favorite bridge: the pont Alexandre. (“Do you know how lovely it is to walk over the pont Alexandre when the reflection of the city lights starts sparkling in the water and the sky turns lavender? I sometimes stop under those old lamps for a moment …”) Suggests: Lives/works near the bridge? If she doesn’t live in the rue de Bourgogne.

Goes to the cinema when she’s looking for love.
