Henriette sees her landlady gossiping |
| Description: |
A variant on the Gossip theme from much earlier in the film (using dissonant parallel minor seconds) is heard as Henriette looks off-screen and sees her landlady talking with the Duke; we can't hear what they are saying but the music tells us it is not very nice |
