6. calme toi! {calm down, stop your screaming}

7. mon amours {my love}

8. ca va, ca va? {let's get the hell out of here}

That's "ne bouge pas" for number 4 and "dehors ou mort" (out or die) for number 9.

What is the correct spelling for --

des gaches?

Mesrine's always pulling people out of their cars--get out!

I didn't realize ca va was said so much.

It doesn't sound like you know much about screenwriting. Writing effective prose (also called screen direction) is every bit as important as dialog. And in a stylized action/thriller like Mesrine, it's more important. So before you s--t on a screenwriter, you might bother to know what you're talking about.

Okay. Now I'm going to do his teeth and cut off his fingers. You might want to leave room.
