1. Mrs. Alsop's out!Copy !req
2. Mrs. Alsop's out!Copy !req
3. - Did you turn off the gas?
- What gas?Copy !req
4. - Which is her room?
- Er, this one.Copy !req
5. We must move her.
Where's the landlady?Copy !req
6. - Not home.
- Where's your room?Copy !req
7. Two floors up.Copy !req
8. Take her shoulders,
I'll take her feet.Copy !req
9. Come on, Miss.Copy !req
10. Pick up my bag.Copy !req
11. Sorry,
you'll have to do that yourself.Copy !req
12. Open the windows.
She needs lots of fresh air.Copy !req
13. So do I.Copy !req
14. - Shall I call an ambulance?
- No time.Copy !req
15. She needs an emetic first.
Glass of water, please.Copy !req
16. Here it is.Copy !req
17. I need 2 quarts of warm water
and some towels.Copy !req
18. Towels, coming up.Copy !req
19. You found this bottle
clutched in her hand?Copy !req
20. Certainly did, from your dispensary.Copy !req
21. I see.
How long have you known this girl?Copy !req
22. About five minutes.Copy !req
23. She'll need looking after
for a couple of days.Copy !req
24. - How about the ambulance?
- It isn't necessary now.Copy !req
25. She's out of danger.Copy !req
26. Besides, sending her to a hospital
would start an inquiry.Copy !req
27. And attempted suicide means jail.Copy !req
28. However, in a couple of days
she'll be fully recovered.Copy !req
29. Meanwhile, let her rest quietly.Copy !req
30. If she's thirsty
give her orange juice.Copy !req
31. And tomorrow,
if she has an appetiteCopy !req
32. a little chicken broth,
but no tinned food.Copy !req
33. Now, if you'll be at my dispensary
in ten minutesCopy !req
34. I'll have a prescription for you.Copy !req
35. - For me?
- No. For her, of course.Copy !req
36. Headache?Copy !req
37. Where am I?Copy !req
38. In my room.
I live two floors above you.Copy !req
39. What happened?Copy !req
40. I came home this evening and
smelled gas coming from your roomCopy !req
41. so I broke in the door,
called a doctor,Copy !req
42. and together we brought you here.Copy !req
43. Why didn't you let me die?Copy !req
44. What's your hurry?Copy !req
45. Are you in pain?Copy !req
46. That's all that matters.
The rest is fantasy.Copy !req
47. Billions of years it's taken
to evolve human consciousnessCopy !req
48. and you want to wipe it out.Copy !req
49. Wipe out the miracle
of all existence.Copy !req
50. More important than anything
in the whole universe!Copy !req
51. What can the stars do?Copy !req
52. Nothing...
but sit on their axis!Copy !req
53. And the sun,Copy !req
54. shooting flames 280,000 miles high...Copy !req
55. So what?Copy !req
56. Wasting all its natural resources.Copy !req
57. Can the sun think? Is it conscious?Copy !req
58. No, but you are!Copy !req
59. Pardon me, my mistake.Copy !req
60. Here you are, and there you go!Copy !req
61. Well, bless me. Heavens alive!Copy !req
62. Look at that. Look at me door!Copy !req
63. House breaking, that's what it is!Copy !req
64. I suppose she's taken her things.
She'll go to jail for this.Copy !req
65. I knew she was no good.Copy !req
66. That quiet type.Copy !req
67. Still waters that run deep
usually stink!Copy !req
68. That's funny,
she hasn't taken a thing.Copy !req
69. And she won't, either.Copy !req
70. Not until she's paid 4 weeks rent.Copy !req
71. Smashing in a door!Copy !req
72. Nice festivities
going on behind my back!Copy !req
73. Well, she's out now
and she'll stay out!Copy !req
74. Mr. Calvero! Oh Mr. Calvero!Copy !req
75. Is that you, Mr. Calvero?Copy !req
76. Your laundry.
I was about to leave it on your bed.Copy !req
77. Just a moment!Copy !req
78. Hold it, hold it!Copy !req
79. Hold everything!Copy !req
80. You dropped these.Copy !req
81. And here's your oranges.Copy !req
82. Thank you.Copy !req
83. So this is
how she spends her evenings.Copy !req
84. You take your hands off me!Copy !req
85. What's she doing in your room?Copy !req
86. The opposite of what you think.Copy !req
87. I'd like to know
who smashed in the door downstairs.Copy !req
88. - I did.
- You did!Copy !req
89. You have a leaking gas pipe.Copy !req
90. I have a what?Copy !req
91. I mean that room
has a leaking gas pipe.Copy !req
92. There's something fishy about this.Copy !req
93. - Who is she anyway?
- You ought to know by now.Copy !req
94. Came six weeks ago.
Said she was a working girl.Copy !req
95. That's what they all say.
Why are you so interested?Copy !req
96. The girl tried to kill herself.Copy !req
97. Took poison, turned on the gas.
I came home just in time.Copy !req
98. I'll call the police
and get an ambulance.Copy !req
99. It'll be in all the papers.
You don't want that.Copy !req
100. She's not staying where she is.Copy !req
101. My good woman, I don't want her!
Let her go back to her room.Copy !req
102. I should say not.
Besides, it's rented.Copy !req
103. You can't throw her into the street!Copy !req
104. She's not going back
to her own room.Copy !req
105. Then she'll have to stay
where she is.Copy !req
106. What? And scandalize my household!Copy !req
107. We could be man and wife
for all anyone knows.Copy !req
108. Oh, could you?
Well, you'd better not be.Copy !req
109. You'd better get rid of her,
and quick.Copy !req
110. Man and wife!Copy !req
111. You watch out for that hussy.Copy !req
112. She's no good. And she's been sick
since she came here.Copy !req
113. It wouldn't be dandruff, would it?Copy !req
114. Ready?Copy !req
115. I am an animal trainerCopy !req
116. A circus entertainerCopy !req
117. I train animals by the score
Lions, tigers and wild boarCopy !req
118. I've made and lost a fortune
In my wild careerCopy !req
119. Some say the cause was women
Some say it was beerCopy !req
120. Then I went through bankruptcy
And lost my whole menagerieCopy !req
121. But I did not despair
I got a bright ideaCopy !req
122. While searching
through my underwearCopy !req
123. A thought occurred to meCopy !req
124. I'm tired of training elephants
So why not train a fleaCopy !req
125. Why should I hunt for animals
And through the jungle roamCopy !req
126. When there's local talent
to be found right here at homeCopy !req
127. I found one but I won't say whereCopy !req
128. And educated him with careCopy !req
129. And taught him
all the facts of lifeCopy !req
130. And then he found himself a wifeCopy !req
131. I give them board and lodging freeCopy !req
132. And every night they dine off meCopy !req
133. They don't eat caviar or cakeCopy !req
134. But they enjoy a good rump steakCopy !req
135. Off my anatomy
Off my anatomyCopy !req
136. It is an odd sensationCopy !req
137. When after meals they take a stroll
Around the old plantationCopy !req
138. Now I'm as happy as can beCopy !req
139. I've taught them lots of tricks
you seeCopy !req
140. And now they're both supporting me
They're both supporting meCopy !req
141. So walk up, walk up
I've the greatest show on earthCopy !req
142. Walk up, walk up
And get your money's worthCopy !req
143. See Phyllis and Henry
Those educated fleasCopy !req
144. Cavorting and sporting
On the flying trapezeCopy !req
145. So any time you itch
Don't scratch or make a fussCopy !req
146. You never can tell you might destroy
Some budding geniusCopy !req
147. Phyllis! Henry! Stop that!Copy !req
148. What do you think you're doing?Copy !req
149. You ought to be ashamed
of yourselves, fighting like that!Copy !req
150. Alright. Phyllis, stay in the box!
Henry!Copy !req
151. You should have done that
before I opened the box.Copy !req
152. Do you hear? Come on!Copy !req
153. Do you want me to squeeze?Copy !req
154. Stop that now!Copy !req
155. Come up from there!Copy !req
156. Phyllis, you hear?
Remember you're on a diet.Copy !req
157. Phyllis, have you gone mad?Copy !req
158. Stop that, do you hear? Stop it!Copy !req
159. Phyllis, do you hear?
Come up at once! You go too far!Copy !req
160. Phyllis, what are you doing?Copy !req
161. Crazy little creature!Copy !req
162. Phyllis, Henry wants you.Copy !req
163. Come, Phyllis.Copy !req
164. Phyllis, stop that.Copy !req
165. Phyllis, come out here!
Come out!Copy !req
166. Where do you think you're going?
You nitwit!Copy !req
167. Phyllis! Stop that now!Copy !req
168. Do you want me to scratch?Copy !req
169. That's not Phyllis.Copy !req
170. Where's Phyllis?Copy !req
171. Oh, there she is!Copy !req
172. Are you awake?Copy !req
173. Your husband said to look in on you.Copy !req
174. - Who?
- Your husband.Copy !req
175. He said to warm up
some chicken soup for you.Copy !req
176. Husband?Copy !req
177. Let me help you. Come on.Copy !req
178. You haven't eaten a thing all day.Copy !req
179. A nice warm soup will do you good.Copy !req
180. Thank you, no.Copy !req
181. Your wife won't eat.Copy !req
182. Well, that's a blessing
to a poor married man.Copy !req
183. How do you feel?Copy !req
184. Much better, thank you.Copy !req
185. Good.Copy !req
186. Pay no attention
to this wife business.Copy !req
187. It's a front of respectability
for the new housemaid.Copy !req
188. However, as soon as you get well
you'll be free and divorced.Copy !req
189. I think I'm well enough now.Copy !req
190. Not quite. I think
you'd better stay another day or so.Copy !req
191. You're very kind.Copy !req
192. I think I'm able to get back
to my room now.Copy !req
193. I'm afraid that isn't possible.Copy !req
194. Why?Copy !req
195. Mrs. Alsop's rented it.
The people are moving in today.Copy !req
196. Oh, I see.Copy !req
197. However you're welcome to stay here
until you know what you want to do.Copy !req
198. What can I do? I'm helpless.Copy !req
199. Why didn't you let me die
and get it over with!Copy !req
200. That's no way to talk. You're alive
and you better make the most of it.Copy !req
201. I'm destitute. Ill.Copy !req
202. Listen...Copy !req
203. I don't know what's wrong with you,Copy !req
204. but if you're ill,
and if it's what Mrs. Alsop thinks,Copy !req
205. you should do something about it.
It isn't hopeless.Copy !req
206. If it's, uh...Copy !req
207. You know what I'm talking about.Copy !req
208. I don't think I do.Copy !req
209. Well, let me put it this way.Copy !req
210. A young girl, alone,
thrown into the world, gets ill.Copy !req
211. If it's anything like that,
you can be cured.Copy !req
212. There's a new drug performing
miracles, curing thousands.Copy !req
213. If it's anything of that nature
don't be afraid to tell,Copy !req
214. maybe I can help.Copy !req
215. I'm an old sinner,
nothing shocks me.Copy !req
216. It's nothing like that.Copy !req
217. Are you sure?Copy !req
218. Positive.Copy !req
219. But you have been ill?Copy !req
220. Yes. I was five months
in the hospital with rheumatic fever.Copy !req
221. Is that all?
Then what are you complaining about?Copy !req
222. It's ruined my health.
I can't work.Copy !req
223. What do you work at?Copy !req
224. I was a dancer.Copy !req
225. A dancer!Copy !req
226. A member of the Empire ballet.Copy !req
227. And I thought you were a...Copy !req
228. So, you're a ballet dancer.Copy !req
229. Pardon me, we haven't met formally.
What is your name?Copy !req
230. Thereza Ambrose.
But I'm called Terry.Copy !req
231. Charming. How do you do.
I'm also in the business.Copy !req
232. My name is Calvero.
Perhaps you've heard of me.Copy !req
233. You're not the great comedian?Copy !req
234. I was.
However, we won't go into that.Copy !req
235. Whatever brought you
to this state of affairs?Copy !req
236. I'll health, mostly.Copy !req
237. Then we'll have to get you well.Copy !req
238. It isn't the ideal spot
for convalescing,Copy !req
239. but you're welcome to it,Copy !req
240. if you can put up with being
Mrs. Calvero. In name only!Copy !req
241. It won't inconvenience you?Copy !req
242. Not at all.
I've had five wives already.Copy !req
243. One more or less
makes no difference.Copy !req
244. Moreover, I've arrived at the ageCopy !req
245. where platonic friendship can be
sustained on the highest moral plane.Copy !req
246. Now let me see, your mother was
a dressmaker and your father a lord?Copy !req
247. The fourth son of a lord.
That's quite different.Copy !req
248. How is it he married your mother?Copy !req
249. She was
one of the family housemaids.Copy !req
250. Sounds like a novelette.Copy !req
251. - Did he have any money?
- No, the family cut him off.Copy !req
252. So your sister's
the only one living?Copy !req
253. Yes, and she's in South America.Copy !req
254. Tell me, was it just ill health
that made you do what you did?Copy !req
255. - That, and...
- And what?Copy !req
256. The utter futility of everything.Copy !req
257. I see it even in flowers,Copy !req
258. hear it in music.Copy !req
259. All life aimless,
without meaning.Copy !req
260. What do you want a meaning for?Copy !req
261. Life is a desire, not a meaning.Copy !req
262. Desire is the theme of all life!Copy !req
263. It makes a rose want to be a rose,
and want to grow like that.Copy !req
264. And a rock want to contain itself
and remain like that.Copy !req
265. What are you smiling about?Copy !req
266. Your imitation
of a rose and a rock.Copy !req
267. I can imitate anything.Copy !req
268. Ever seen a Japanese tree?
They're lopsided, they grow this way.Copy !req
269. Of course pansies grow this way.Copy !req
270. The dark ones frown and go like that.Copy !req
271. However, the meaning of anythingCopy !req
272. is merely other words
for the same thing.Copy !req
273. After all, a rose is a rose.
Not bad, should be quoted.Copy !req
274. Think how meaningless
life was a moment ago.Copy !req
275. Now you have
a temporary husband and a home.Copy !req
276. Here's your drinking water,
and in case of any emergencies,Copy !req
277. the first door on the left,
the same on each floor.Copy !req
278. Good night.Copy !req
279. Spring is here!Copy !req
280. Birds are callingCopy !req
281. Skunks are crawlingCopy !req
282. Wagging their tails for loveCopy !req
283. Spring is here!Copy !req
284. Whales are churningCopy !req
285. Worms are squirmingCopy !req
286. Wagging their tails for loveCopy !req
287. What is this thing
Of which I singCopy !req
288. That makes us all bewitched?Copy !req
289. What is this thing
That comes in SpringCopy !req
290. That gives us all the itch?Copy !req
291. Oh, it's loveCopy !req
292. It's love,
It's love love love loveCopy !req
293. Pardon me,
but have you a fly swatter?Copy !req
294. I beg your pardon.Copy !req
295. If you beg around here,
I'll call the police.Copy !req
296. I repeat, I beg your pardon.Copy !req
297. I don't care what you've eaten.Copy !req
298. I've eaten nothing.Copy !req
299. Poor dear.
Here, get a sandwich.Copy !req
300. - Sir, I demand an apology!
- I don't know you.Copy !req
301. Who are your people?
Are you in the social register?Copy !req
302. - My name happens to be Smith.
- Never heard of them.Copy !req
303. That shows you're asinine.Copy !req
304. I should have worn my overcoat.Copy !req
305. You've interrupted me
in the middle of my sonnet.Copy !req
306. In the middle of your what?Copy !req
307. Not in the middle of my what,
the middle of my sonnet.Copy !req
308. My ode to a worm.Copy !req
309. Oh worm, why do you turn
into the earth from me?Copy !req
310. 'Tis Spring! Oh worm!Copy !req
311. Lift up your headCopy !req
312. whichever end that be
and smile at the sunCopy !req
313. untwine your naked form
and with your tail, fling!Copy !req
314. High the dirt in ecstasy!Copy !req
315. 'Tis Spring! 'Tis Spring!
'Tis Spring!Copy !req
316. Ridiculous!
A worm smiling at the sun!Copy !req
317. - Why not?
- A worm can't smile.Copy !req
318. Did you ever appeal
to its sense of humor?Copy !req
319. - Of course not.
- Well then!Copy !req
320. But it doesn't make sense.Copy !req
321. Why should poetry
have to make sense?Copy !req
322. Don't you know there's such a thing
as poetic license?Copy !req
323. I've given you no license.Copy !req
324. Oh no, don't!Copy !req
325. This thing is so much bigger
than ourselves!Copy !req
326. At this moment
I'm grasping the meaning of life.Copy !req
327. What a waste of energy.Copy !req
328. What is this urge
that makes life go on and on?Copy !req
329. You're right.
What does it all mean?Copy !req
330. Where are we going?Copy !req
331. You're going south.
Your hand's in my pocket.Copy !req
332. Naughty.Copy !req
333. - How did it get there?
- Pure magnetism, old dear.Copy !req
334. Why are you antagonistic
towards me?Copy !req
335. Must we be serious?Copy !req
336. You make it difficult to know you.Copy !req
337. Read my memoirs
in the Police Gazette.Copy !req
338. - You're a funny man.
- Why?Copy !req
339. To talk about worms
the way you do.Copy !req
340. Why not? Even flies are romantic.Copy !req
341. - Flies?
- Oh yes.Copy !req
342. Coming from the stable
to the table,Copy !req
343. chasing each other over the sugar
and meeting in the butter.Copy !req
344. - You've read "The Life of the Bee"?
- No, I haven't.Copy !req
345. The bee's behavior in the beehive
is unbelievable.Copy !req
346. Really?Copy !req
347. - Gezundheit!
- It certainly does.Copy !req
348. - I beg your pardon?
- The dress. It goes on tight.Copy !req
349. You're awful dusty tonight, my dear.
Turn around.Copy !req
350. Where do they keep you?
On the top shelf or something?Copy !req
351. Fuller's earth? Johnson's powder?
I know! Cornstarch.Copy !req
352. Just think!
All life motivated by love.Copy !req
353. How beautiful.Copy !req
354. - By no means beautiful.
- It certainly is.Copy !req
355. No, it's vile, wicked, awful!
But wonderful.Copy !req
356. - I like you.
- Really?Copy !req
357. You're sensitive. You feel things.Copy !req
358. Don't encourage me.Copy !req
359. It's true. So few people
have the capacity to feel.Copy !req
360. Or the opportunity.Copy !req
361. Allow me.Copy !req
362. Use it only for what you wish.Copy !req
363. Come in.Copy !req
364. Good morning. How do you feel?Copy !req
365. - Better, thank you.
- Good.Copy !req
366. What a day!Copy !req
367. The sun's shining, the kettle's
singing, and we've paid the rent.Copy !req
368. There'll be an earthquake,
I know it.Copy !req
369. What would you like for breakfast?Copy !req
370. We have eggs, bacon,
cheese, spring onions...Copy !req
371. That's broken my dream!Copy !req
372. I dreamt we did an act together,
all about Spring.Copy !req
373. Interesting.Copy !req
374. I get lots of ideas in my dreams,
then I wake up and forget them.Copy !req
375. You know, I've been dreaming a lot
about the theater lately.Copy !req
376. Doing my old acts all over again.Copy !req
377. Kippers. Aren't they superb!Copy !req
378. What's wrong?Copy !req
379. It's my legs! I tried to get up
this morning and I collapsed.Copy !req
380. I can't even stand.Copy !req
381. You got up too soon.Copy !req
382. No, it's not that.
I have no feeling in them.Copy !req
383. They're paralyzed. I know it!Copy !req
384. Don't upset yourself.
After breakfast we'll call the doctor.Copy !req
385. I'd better go to a hospital.Copy !req
386. You know best,
but see what the doctor says first.Copy !req
387. I can't stay here,
causing you all this trouble.Copy !req
388. I'm not complaining.Copy !req
389. You should, I'm such a bore.Copy !req
390. But it's not my fault.
You would save my life.Copy !req
391. Well, we all make mistakes!Copy !req
392. I'm sorry.Copy !req
393. You should be. A young girl like you
wanting to throw your life away.Copy !req
394. When you're my age,
you'll want to hang on to it.Copy !req
395. Why?Copy !req
396. Well, at this stage of the game
life gets to be a habit.Copy !req
397. A hopeless one.Copy !req
398. Then live without hope.
Live for the moment.Copy !req
399. There are still, there are still...Copy !req
400. There are still wonderful moments.Copy !req
401. But if you've lost your health!Copy !req
402. My dear, I was given up for dead
six months ago, but I fought back.Copy !req
403. That's what you must do.Copy !req
404. I'm tired of fighting.Copy !req
405. Because you're fighting yourself.
You won't give yourself a chance.Copy !req
406. But the fight for happiness
is beautiful.Copy !req
407. Happiness...Copy !req
408. - There is such a thing.
- Where?Copy !req
409. Listen, as a child I used to complain
to my father about not having toysCopy !req
410. and he would say "this"
is the greatest toy ever created.Copy !req
411. Here lies
the secret of all happiness.Copy !req
412. To hear you talk, no one would
ever think you were a comedian.Copy !req
413. I'm beginning to realize that.
It's the reason I can't get a job.Copy !req
414. Why?Copy !req
415. Because they have no imagination.Copy !req
416. Or think because I'm getting
on in years I'm old, all washed up.Copy !req
417. Never! After hearing you talk.Copy !req
418. Perhaps I drank too much.Copy !req
419. There's usually a reason
for drinking.Copy !req
420. Unhappiness, I suppose.Copy !req
421. No, I'm used to that.Copy !req
422. It was more complicated.Copy !req
423. As a man gets on in years
he wants to live deeply.Copy !req
424. A feeling of sad dignity comes upon
him, and that's fatal for a comic.Copy !req
425. It affected my work.Copy !req
426. I lost contact with the audience,
couldn't warm up to them.Copy !req
427. And that's what started me drinking.Copy !req
428. I had to have it before I went on.Copy !req
429. It got so I couldn't be funny
without it. The more I drank...Copy !req
430. It became a vicious circle.Copy !req
431. What happened?Copy !req
432. A heart attack. I almost died.Copy !req
433. And you're still drinking?Copy !req
434. Occasionally, if I think of things.Copy !req
435. The wrong things I suppose,
as you do.Copy !req
436. What would you like
for your breakfast?Copy !req
437. What a sad business, being funny.Copy !req
438. Very sad if they won't laugh.Copy !req
439. But it's a thrill when they do.Copy !req
440. To look out there
and see them all laughing,Copy !req
441. to hear that roar go up,
waves of laughter coming at you.Copy !req
442. Let's talk of something
more cheerful.Copy !req
443. Besides I want to forget the public.Copy !req
444. Never. You love them too much.Copy !req
445. Maybe I love them,
but I don't admire them.Copy !req
446. I think you do.Copy !req
447. As individuals, yes.
There's greatness in everyone.Copy !req
448. But as a crowd, they're like
a monster without a headCopy !req
449. that never knows which way
it's going to turn.Copy !req
450. It can be prodded in any direction.Copy !req
451. I keep forgetting about breakfast.
How about some poached eggs?Copy !req
452. Come in.Copy !req
453. - A telegram.
- Oh, thank you.Copy !req
454. Are you all right?Copy !req
455. This is what I've been waiting for.Copy !req
456. Good news?Copy !req
457. Redfern, my agent, wants to see me.Copy !req
458. Wonderful!Copy !req
459. You're right.
This is the turning point.Copy !req
460. Those managers have been holding
out on me, breaking my morale.Copy !req
461. But now they want me!Copy !req
462. And now I'll make them pay!
For their contempt and indifference.Copy !req
463. No, I'll be gracious.Copy !req
464. That'll be more dignified,
put them in their place.Copy !req
465. I'm to be at Redfern's office
at three.Copy !req
466. I'll call the doctor
and tell him about your legs.Copy !req
467. But I forgot your breakfast!Copy !req
468. How about some nice kippers?Copy !req
469. Nothing for you, or you, or you...Copy !req
470. Nothing for you.Copy !req
471. - Anyone waiting?
- Miss Parker.Copy !req
472. Anyone else?Copy !req
473. Yes, Calvero.
He's been here since three.Copy !req
474. I forgot all about him.
Show him in.Copy !req
475. Good afternoon, Calvero.
Sit down.Copy !req
476. Sorry about yesterday. I was held up
over some important business.Copy !req
477. However, I've good news for you.Copy !req
478. I can get you a week
at Middlesex Music Hall.Copy !req
479. At what terms?Copy !req
480. I don't know yet,
but I wouldn't bother about that.Copy !req
481. No bother at all.Copy !req
482. However, if money's no object,Copy !req
483. - what billing am I to get?
- I wouldn't bother about that either.Copy !req
484. I'm not to get star billing
at Middlesex?Copy !req
485. I'm not sure
we can book you there.Copy !req
486. You think I'd allow those managers
to throw in my nameCopy !req
487. with a lot of nondescripts
just to build up their reputation!Copy !req
488. Calvero's still a name
to conjure with!Copy !req
489. You're mistaken.
Today it means nothing.Copy !req
490. Then why do they want me?Copy !req
491. They don't want you.
They're doing me a favor.Copy !req
492. Very kind of them.
I hope you appreciate the fact.Copy !req
493. I'm going to be perfectly frank
with you.Copy !req
494. I've been talking Calvero
to them for over six months.Copy !req
495. Your name is poison.
They don't want to touch you.Copy !req
496. They couldn't if they tried.Copy !req
497. I'm sorry, but you must
be made to realize the facts.Copy !req
498. You're succeeding splendidly.Copy !req
499. I'm trying to help, that's all.
But you must cooperate.Copy !req
500. Whatever you say, I'll do.Copy !req
501. That's the spirit.Copy !req
502. As soon as the contract's confirmed,
I'll let you know.Copy !req
503. However, cheer up.Copy !req
504. If my name is poison to them,
I won't use it.Copy !req
505. - I'll go by another name.
- I think that's a splendid idea.Copy !req
506. Well doctor, how is our patient?Copy !req
507. The condition is cleared up, but
I find nothing wrong with her legs.Copy !req
508. Didn't she tell you
she's had rheumatic fever?Copy !req
509. Yes, but I don't think she has.Copy !req
510. The heart would have been affected
and it's perfectly sound.Copy !req
511. I believe it's a case
of psycho-anesthesia.Copy !req
512. What's that?Copy !req
513. A form of hysteria that has
the characteristics of paralysisCopy !req
514. without being so.Copy !req
515. How do you account for it?Copy !req
516. In her case, I'd say
it's psychological, self-imposed.Copy !req
517. Having failed at suicide,
she's decided to become a cripple.Copy !req
518. Is there any way I can help?Copy !req
519. Primarily she must help herself.
It's a case for a psychologist.Copy !req
520. Doctor Freud.Copy !req
521. Well, I'll see what I can do.Copy !req
522. - Good day, Doctor.
- Good day.Copy !req
523. Tell me more
about your sister Louise.Copy !req
524. There's nothing more to tell.Copy !req
525. When she couldn't find work
she was driven to the street.Copy !req
526. How old were you
when you discovered this?Copy !req
527. About eight.Copy !req
528. Tell me about it.Copy !req
529. It was after my mother died.
I loved Louise.Copy !req
530. She was everything to me,
supported me, had me taught dancing.Copy !req
531. Then one day I realized
what she was doing.Copy !req
532. I was coming home from dancing
with the other girlsCopy !req
533. and I saw her, and the other girls
saw her, walking the street.Copy !req
534. What did you do?Copy !req
535. I just ran and wept.Copy !req
536. Ran and wept.Copy !req
537. Then what happened?Copy !req
538. I tried to forget.Copy !req
539. I was sent to boarding school. At 16,
I left and joined the Empire Ballet.Copy !req
540. Louise went to South America.
I haven't heard from her since.Copy !req
541. Up to that time,
you had no trouble with your legs?Copy !req
542. No.Copy !req
543. When did it start?Copy !req
544. About two years later.
After Melise joined the ballet.Copy !req
545. Who's Melise?Copy !req
546. One of the girls
from the dancing school.Copy !req
547. One who was with you
when you found out about Louise?Copy !req
548. Mr. Freud would say
that since meeting this girl again,Copy !req
549. you don't want to dance.Copy !req
550. Why?Copy !req
551. You've associated it
with the unhappy life of your sisterCopy !req
552. who paid for your lessons
through a life of shame.Copy !req
553. You've been ashamed to dance
ever since.Copy !req
554. I'd despise myself
if I thought that.Copy !req
555. That's the trouble, you do.Copy !req
556. That's the trouble with the world.
We all despise ourselves.Copy !req
557. Streetwalking!Copy !req
558. We're all grubbing for a living,
the best of us.Copy !req
559. All a part of the human crusade,Copy !req
560. written in water.Copy !req
561. But enough of that.Copy !req
562. Ever been in love?Copy !req
563. No, not really.Copy !req
564. I think it was more
a feeling of pity.Copy !req
565. The plot thickens.
Tell me about it.Copy !req
566. It's a ridiculous story.
I hardly knew the man.Copy !req
567. It was something I built up
in my own mind.Copy !req
568. It was after I came out
of the hospital.Copy !req
569. I took a job
at Sardou's stationary shop.Copy !req
570. He was one of the customers,
a young American.Copy !req
571. He used to buy music paperCopy !req
572. in large and small amounts,
according to his finances.Copy !req
573. He seemed so lonely,
so helpless and shy.Copy !req
574. There was something pathetic
about him.Copy !req
575. I wouldn't have noticed him,
but someone tried to elbow in.Copy !req
576. When I ignored the other man,
he smiled in gratitude.Copy !req
577. The old charwoman who worked where
he lived told me he was Mr. Neville,Copy !req
578. a composer,
and that he occupied the top room.Copy !req
579. There were days I knew he went
without food to buy music paper.Copy !req
580. I could see it in his eyes.Copy !req
581. The haggard look.Copy !req
582. Sometimes I'd throw in
a few extra sheets.Copy !req
583. Once I gave him more
than his proper change,Copy !req
584. which he might have noticed,
but I wasn't sure.Copy !req
585. Often after work I'd stroll by his
house and hear him playing piano,Copy !req
586. repeating musical passages
over and over again.Copy !req
587. And I'd stand listening,
excited and melancholy.Copy !req
588. Well, what then?Copy !req
589. Then for weeks I never saw him.Copy !req
590. The charwoman told me he was ill.
Creditors had taken his piano.Copy !req
591. Eventually he came into the shop
looking very paleCopy !req
592. and asked for two shillings worth
of large orchestral sheets,Copy !req
593. placing a two shilling piece
on the counter.Copy !req
594. I knew it was his last.Copy !req
595. If I could only help him!
If I only dared!Copy !req
596. I could lend him money.
I wanted to tell him so.Copy !req
597. But I was also shy.Copy !req
598. Nevertheless
I was determined to help.Copy !req
599. I gave him some extra sheets
and as he was about leaveCopy !req
600. I called him back:Copy !req
601. You've forgotten your change.Copy !req
602. There must be a mistake, he said.Copy !req
603. Not at all, I answered.Copy !req
604. You gave me half a crown,
here's sixpence change.Copy !req
605. Then I realized I had created
a ridiculous situation.Copy !req
606. To make matters worse
in came Mr.Copy !req
607. Can I be of any assistance?Copy !req
608. It isn't necessary, I said quickly.Copy !req
609. The gentleman gave me half a crown
and forgot his change.Copy !req
610. However,
Mr. Sardou made him take it.Copy !req
611. But as soon as he left
Mr. Sardou went through the tillCopy !req
612. and finding no half crown there,
became suspicious.Copy !req
613. The discrepancy was discovered
and I was discharged.Copy !req
614. What did you do then?Copy !req
615. I tried to get back to dancing,
then I collapsed with rheumatic fever.Copy !req
616. Did you ever see
this young composer again?Copy !req
617. Yes, five months later.
After I came out of the hospital.Copy !req
618. I saw him from the gallery
of the Albert Hall.Copy !req
619. His symphony was played there.
It was a great success.Copy !req
620. Of course you're in love with him.Copy !req
621. I don't even know him.Copy !req
622. You will.
Life is a local affair.Copy !req
623. I can see it happening.Copy !req
624. You'll be at the height
of your success and he'll call on you,Copy !req
625. and tell you he met you
at some super party.Copy !req
626. Won't I recognize him?Copy !req
627. Oh no. He's grown a beard.
Musicians do.Copy !req
628. He'll tell you
he's composed a ballet for you.Copy !req
629. And you'll realize who he is,
you'll tell him who you areCopy !req
630. and how you met,
and how you waited on him.Copy !req
631. And gave him extra music sheets.Copy !req
632. And that night you'll dine togetherCopy !req
633. on a balcony
overlooking the Thames.Copy !req
634. It'll be summer.Copy !req
635. And you'll be wearing
pink mousseline.Copy !req
636. And he'll be conscious
of its fragrance.Copy !req
637. And all London
will be dreamy and beautiful.Copy !req
638. And in the elegant melancholy
of twilight,Copy !req
639. as the candles flutter
and make your eyes dance,Copy !req
640. he will tell you he loves you.Copy !req
641. And you will tell him
you have always loved him.Copy !req
642. Where am I?Copy !req
643. Yes, life can be wonderful
if you're not afraid of it.Copy !req
644. All it needs is courage, imaginationCopy !req
645. and a little dough.Copy !req
646. Now what's the matter?Copy !req
647. I'll never dance again!
I'm a cripple.Copy !req
648. - Pure hysteria! It's in your mind.
- It isn't true.Copy !req
649. - Otherwise you'd fight!
- What is there to fight for?Copy !req
650. Ah, you see? You admit it.Copy !req
651. What is there to fight for?
Everything!Copy !req
652. Life itself! Isn't that enough?Copy !req
653. To be lived, suffered, enjoyed!
What is there to fight for?Copy !req
654. Life is a beautiful,
magnificent thing.Copy !req
655. Even to a jellyfish.Copy !req
656. What is there to fight for?
You have your art, your dancing!Copy !req
657. But I can't dance without legs!Copy !req
658. I know a man without armsCopy !req
659. who can play a scherzo on a violin
and does it all with his toes.Copy !req
660. The trouble is you won't fight.
You've given in.Copy !req
661. Continually dwelling
on sickness and death!Copy !req
662. But,Copy !req
663. there's something
just as inevitable as deathCopy !req
664. and that's life.
Life, life, life!Copy !req
665. Think of the power
that's in the universe!Copy !req
666. Moving the earth, growing the trees!Copy !req
667. And that's the same power
within you.Copy !req
668. If you'd only have courage
and the will to use it.Copy !req
669. Good night!Copy !req
670. Faster, faster.
Come on, dance!Copy !req
671. Beautiful.Copy !req
672. I fooled you that time.
Come on.Copy !req
673. Take that away.
Come on!Copy !req
674. What's the news?Copy !req
675. Europe in a race for armaments.Copy !req
676. Anything interesting?Copy !req
677. A write-up about Mr. And
Mrs. Zanzig, the mind readers.Copy !req
678. I played with them years ago.Copy !req
679. They say they can transfer thoughts
to each other.Copy !req
680. Nonsense!Copy !req
681. Then how is it done?Copy !req
682. Not transference. I was with him once
when he sent his wife a telegram.Copy !req
683. More coffee?Copy !req
684. Just a half cup.Copy !req
685. I'm sorry, I didn't intend...Copy !req
686. Oh no, it's good exercise.Copy !req
687. Look at you,
hopping around like a two year-old.Copy !req
688. I think there's an improvement.Copy !req
689. Definitely.Copy !req
690. - But I get so nervous doing nothing.
- Nothing?Copy !req
691. I welcome every new hole
in your socks.Copy !req
692. Housework and cooking,
what more do you want?Copy !req
693. Keep fighting, that's all.Copy !req
694. That reminds me,
Mrs. Alsop's on the warpath again.Copy !req
695. She wants to know how long
I'm going to stay.Copy !req
696. Tell her to mind her own business!
We pay our rent.Copy !req
697. Oh no, there's a month owing.Copy !req
698. Since they postponed the Middlesex
opening, it's upset everything.Copy !req
699. Don't worry.
I can handle the old girl.Copy !req
700. All she needs
is a little pinch and a pat.Copy !req
701. Don't you think
I should go to a hospital?Copy !req
702. I do not.Copy !req
703. You'd have one problem
off your hands.Copy !req
704. After the Middlesex,
our problems are over.Copy !req
705. You know, preaching and moralizing
to you has really affected me.Copy !req
706. I'm beginning to believe it myself.Copy !req
707. I haven't taken a drink
since I've known you.Copy !req
708. Wonderful.Copy !req
709. And I'm not going to,
even on opening night.Copy !req
710. You don't need it.Copy !req
711. You're excruciatingly funny
without it.Copy !req
712. Oh, yes.Copy !req
713. - What's that?
- Maybe a letter from Redfern.Copy !req
714. Just the man I want to see!Copy !req
715. How thrilling!Copy !req
716. This is no joke. When are you
getting rid of that girl upstairs?Copy !req
717. - Don't be jealous.
- Jealous!Copy !req
718. What have you done to your hair?Copy !req
719. Where are your spit curls?Copy !req
720. Never mind all that!
You owe me four weeks' rent.Copy !req
721. - Have I denied the fact?
- You'd better not.Copy !req
722. Sybil, you really want to hurt me,
don't you? You little minx.Copy !req
723. Behave yourself!Copy !req
724. I get so full of nonsense
when I'm around you.Copy !req
725. You fool!Copy !req
726. What about that girl upstairs?Copy !req
727. Now, now. Be patient.Copy !req
728. You'd better
get rid of her this week.Copy !req
729. Bear with me. I know
it's been a trial for both of us.Copy !req
730. Both of us!
Who are you kidding?Copy !req
731. You!Copy !req
732. You wonderful
little plum pudding, you!Copy !req
733. But we must behave ourselves.Copy !req
734. That takes care of the rent.Copy !req
735. - Was there any post?
- No. That was for Mrs. Alsop.Copy !req
736. Oh for the life of a sardine
That is the life for meCopy !req
737. Cavorting and spawning
every morningCopy !req
738. Under the deep blue seaCopy !req
739. To have no fear of a fisherman's net
Oh what fun to be gay and all wetCopy !req
740. Oh for the life of a sardine
That is the life for meCopy !req
741. Funny thing,Copy !req
742. I dreamt I was a sardine.Copy !req
743. I dreamt it was lunchtime,
and I was, uh...Copy !req
744. swimming along,
looking for a little bit of baitCopy !req
745. and I found myself passing
a large bed of kelp.Copy !req
746. And there on it, I mean in it,Copy !req
747. was the prettiest little fin
you've ever seen.Copy !req
748. That's what we call them
in the fish world: fins.Copy !req
749. The way she maneuvered her tail,Copy !req
750. with such finesse.Copy !req
751. She seemed to be in trouble.Copy !req
752. All right old boy,
let's all go home.Copy !req
753. Yeah, you're right. Good night.Copy !req
754. I beg your pardon.Copy !req
755. Blasted! These shoes are too tight.Copy !req
756. Good night.Copy !req
757. What are you doing up so late?Copy !req
758. I just couldn't sleep.Copy !req
759. Then I saw the partition doors open,
so I got up an hour ago.Copy !req
760. Some hot soup?Copy !req
761. No, thanks.Copy !req
762. You look tired.Copy !req
763. Do I?Copy !req
764. I know you're worried,Copy !req
765. but the Middlesex contract's signed,
it's just the delay.Copy !req
766. There's no delay.Copy !req
767. What do you mean?Copy !req
768. It happened tonight.Copy !req
769. The Middlesex?Copy !req
770. Why didn't you let me know?Copy !req
771. I didn't want you to go through
the suspense of it.Copy !req
772. Then forget everything now,
and get a good night's rest.Copy !req
773. They walked out on me.Copy !req
774. They haven't done that
since I was a beginner.Copy !req
775. The cycle's complete.Copy !req
776. But you've changed your name!
They didn't know you.Copy !req
777. No, I wasn't funny.
The trouble is, I was sober.Copy !req
778. I should have been drunk
before going on.Copy !req
779. I still insist
they didn't know you.Copy !req
780. Just as well they didn't.Copy !req
781. Naturally! You can't expect too much
the first performance.Copy !req
782. You haven't worked in a long time.Copy !req
783. But you'll see, tonight
when you go back it'll be different.Copy !req
784. I'm not going back.Copy !req
785. Why?Copy !req
786. They've terminated the contract.Copy !req
787. But they can't do that!Copy !req
788. They can. They have.Copy !req
789. You were engaged for the week!
You can insist.Copy !req
790. It's no use. I'm finished.Copy !req
791. Through!Copy !req
792. Nonsense.Copy !req
793. Are you, Calvero, going to allow
one performance to destroy you?Copy !req
794. Of course not!
You're too great an artist.Copy !req
795. Now's the time to show them
what you're made of. Time to fight!Copy !req
796. Remember what you told me,
standing there by that window?Copy !req
797. Remember what you said?Copy !req
798. About the power of the universe
moving the earth?Copy !req
799. Growing the trees,
and that power being within you?Copy !req
800. Now is the time to use that power,
and to fight!Copy !req
801. Calvero, look! I'm walking!Copy !req
802. I'm walking!Copy !req
803. I'm walking!Copy !req
804. Just think, I can walk!Copy !req
805. Well, I can't any further.
I have to quit right here.Copy !req
806. Do you realize
it's almost five o'clock?Copy !req
807. I know. But I couldn't stay
in that room another minute.Copy !req
808. I don't blame you.Copy !req
809. Cheer up.Copy !req
810. Look, the dawn is breaking.Copy !req
811. That's a good omen.Copy !req
812. I know it. It will be.Copy !req
813. It must be.Copy !req
814. Don't be discouraged.
You'll get on your feet again.Copy !req
815. On my what again?Copy !req
816. But think how fortunate we are!Copy !req
817. At least we both have our health.Copy !req
818. Now I can get a job. There's always
chorus work to keep us going.Copy !req
819. Us?Copy !req
820. Yes.Copy !req
821. Us.Copy !req
822. You and me. Together.Copy !req
823. - Mr. Bodalink!
- What is it?Copy !req
824. - The front office, sir.
- Thank you.Copy !req
825. Terry, I was about to leave you
a note about Calvero.Copy !req
826. Have him see me tomorrow morning
before your audition.Copy !req
827. - He's all set for the part.
- Wonderful!Copy !req
828. Just a minute.Copy !req
829. Why, Terry!
I didn't hear you come in.Copy !req
830. How could you?Copy !req
831. Allow me. My friends,Copy !req
832. Mademoiselle Thereza.Copy !req
833. How do you do.Copy !req
834. We're just having a little beer,
Bach and Beethoven.Copy !req
835. Isn't it rather late for music?Copy !req
836. Not if we play a nocturne.Copy !req
837. Proceed with the butchery,Copy !req
838. only make it soft,
sentimental, largo.Copy !req
839. - I'll stick to beer if you don't mind.
- Coming up!Copy !req
840. But what will Mrs. Alsop say?Copy !req
841. A fine thing! After climbing up
three flights of stairs,Copy !req
842. I've just discovered I've got nothing
but a lot of empty beer bottles.Copy !req
843. Why, Terry, is the show out?Copy !req
844. I didn't realize it was that late.Copy !req
845. It's very late.Copy !req
846. That's our cue, we'd better go.Copy !req
847. You're not going!
We were just about to celebrate.Copy !req
848. - But it's almost one o'clock.
- So what?Copy !req
849. Wait a minute!Copy !req
850. Calvero gave me three horses
and I doubled up on them!Copy !req
851. Now that only happens
once in a lifetime.Copy !req
852. Wait a minute. Those stairs
are steep. I'll lead the way.Copy !req
853. That's all right, I can handle myself.
Don't you worry about me.Copy !req
854. Good night.Copy !req
855. I'm sorry, my dear. I'm drunk.Copy !req
856. It's your health I'm worried about.
You know what the doctor said.Copy !req
857. Yes, I shouldn't drink.
It's bad for the heart.Copy !req
858. What about the mind?Copy !req
859. I suppose that should be clear and
alert so I can contemplate the future.Copy !req
860. The prospects of joining
those gray-haired nymphsCopy !req
861. that sleep
on the Thames embankment at night.Copy !req
862. You'll never join them
while I'm alive.Copy !req
863. Oh, I forgot to get your supper!
I'm no good.Copy !req
864. I'll get it later on.
First I'm going to put you to bed.Copy !req
865. But you've had nothing to eat.Copy !req
866. Did you take your medicine?Copy !req
867. What medicine?Copy !req
868. You didn't.
It's to give you an appetite.Copy !req
869. I've quenched my appetite.Copy !req
870. You'll be ill again,
if you don't eat.Copy !req
871. Well, I much prefer to drink.Copy !req
872. A man's true character comes out
when he's drunk.Copy !req
873. Me, I'm funnier.Copy !req
874. Too bad I didn't drink
at the Middlesex.Copy !req
875. I've got good news for you.Copy !req
876. Mr. Bodalink wants to see you
tomorrow morning.Copy !req
877. Who's he?Copy !req
878. Our dance director. He wants you
to play a clown in the new ballet.Copy !req
879. I'm through clowning.Copy !req
880. Life isn't a gag anymore.
I can't see the joke.Copy !req
881. From now on, I'm a retired humorist.Copy !req
882. You'll feel differently
in the morning.Copy !req
883. No, I hate the theatre!Copy !req
884. Someday I'll buy
an acre of ground somewhereCopy !req
885. and raise a few cut flowers,
and make a living that way.Copy !req
886. What do you think?
It's all settled. I play the clown.Copy !req
887. Let's sit down over here
and you can tell me all about it.Copy !req
888. Of course, the salary isn't much.Copy !req
889. Two pounds?Copy !req
890. But it's a foot in the door.
Naturally I'm not using my own name.Copy !req
891. This Bodalink's a nice chap.
Says you're quite a dancer.Copy !req
892. If you'd have come to the theatre,
you might have known it.Copy !req
893. Why didn't you tell me
you were auditioning?Copy !req
894. I wanted to surprise you.Copy !req
895. I'm not sure of the outcome.
It depends on Mr. Postant.Copy !req
896. Postant!
I thought he'd retired years ago.Copy !req
897. Why, do you know him?Copy !req
898. Last time I worked for Postant,
I was the headline here.Copy !req
899. Footlights!Copy !req
900. Your hands are quite cold.Copy !req
901. I think I've got the girl. Young,
sympathetic, a brilliant dancer.Copy !req
902. Bring her on!Copy !req
903. Thereza, please!Copy !req
904. You understand
it's purely improvising.Copy !req
905. That's how I always judge a dancer.Copy !req
906. This is Thereza, Mr. Postant.Copy !req
907. - How do you do.
- How do you do.Copy !req
908. You'll be dancing to Mr. Neville's
music. Listen to it first.Copy !req
909. This is Mr. Neville, our composer.Copy !req
910. - How do you do.
- How do you do.Copy !req
911. I believe we've met before.Copy !req
912. Really?Copy !req
913. It's 12:30, we'd better call lunch.
Lunch everybody! Back at 1:30.Copy !req
914. Allow me to congratulate
the next prima ballerina.Copy !req
915. You're sopping wet, my dear.
Get your coat.Copy !req
916. Put in on and then
we'll talk business.Copy !req
917. Allow me.Copy !req
918. - May I also congratulate you?
- Thank you.Copy !req
919. Come dear. We'll meet at my office
at 2:30 and fix up her contract.Copy !req
920. But we're rehearsing at 2.Copy !req
921. Make it 6, after rehearsal.Copy !req
922. Run up to your dressing room
before you get a chill.Copy !req
923. - Where's Neville?
- Coming!Copy !req
924. All right Frank,
turn off those lights.Copy !req
925. Here I am.Copy !req
926. I was looking for you outside.Copy !req
927. What are you doing
sitting in the dark?Copy !req
928. I'd be ridiculous in the light.
Look at me, I'm shameless.Copy !req
929. But I can't help it.Copy !req
930. My dear, you are a true artist.Copy !req
931. True artist.Copy !req
932. This is absurd. Ridiculous.Copy !req
933. I've waited for this moment.Copy !req
934. I love you.Copy !req
935. I've wanted to say it for so long.Copy !req
936. Ever since the day you thought
I was a woman of the street.Copy !req
937. You took me in,Copy !req
938. cared for me,Copy !req
939. saved my life,Copy !req
940. inspired it.Copy !req
941. But above all that,
I just love you.Copy !req
942. Please, Calvero, marry me.Copy !req
943. - What nonsense is this?
- It isn't nonsense.Copy !req
944. My dear, I'm an old man.Copy !req
945. I don't care what you are.Copy !req
946. I love you.
That's all that matters.Copy !req
947. Latest news, express!Copy !req
948. While you're having lunch,
I'm going to see about my wig.Copy !req
949. Then I'll go with you.Copy !req
950. You'd better have lunch first.
I might be delayed.Copy !req
951. I'll see you back at the theatre.Copy !req
952. Have a good lunch.Copy !req
953. Oh, hello there.Copy !req
954. I'm the man at the piano
who played a moment ago.Copy !req
955. It's quite crowded.Copy !req
956. Always is at lunch time.Copy !req
957. Two?Copy !req
958. Very well.Copy !req
959. Your order, please.Copy !req
960. Bacon and eggs, toast and tea.Copy !req
961. The same.Copy !req
962. That's always safe.Copy !req
963. Beautiful day to be rehearsing.Copy !req
964. Although the papers
are predicting more rain.Copy !req
965. Really?Copy !req
966. What's the joke?Copy !req
967. I finally have the chance to talk
to you and I've nothing to say.Copy !req
968. What is more eloquent than silence?Copy !req
969. - I'd better change tables.
- I won't bite.Copy !req
970. I'm not too sure. I was
severely frostbitten a moment ago.Copy !req
971. What do you mean?Copy !req
972. This morning.
When we were introduced.Copy !req
973. I don't understand.Copy !req
974. My reception was rather cool,
I thought.Copy !req
975. I still don't understand.Copy !req
976. I'm sorry.Copy !req
977. I seem to be getting
a little involved.Copy !req
978. You see, I had an idea
that we'd met before.Copy !req
979. Well, perhaps we have.Copy !req
980. If we haven't,
then you have a twin sister.Copy !req
981. Who is she?Copy !req
982. Do you really want to know?Copy !req
983. Yes.Copy !req
984. A young girl
who used to work at Sardou's,Copy !req
985. a stationary shop
where I bought music paper.Copy !req
986. A very shy, reticent girl.Copy !req
987. She seldom spoke.Copy !req
988. But her smile was warm
and appealing.Copy !req
989. I read many things into it.Copy !req
990. I also was shy.
It was a bond between us.Copy !req
991. She used to give me
extra music sheets,Copy !req
992. and occasionally extra change.Copy !req
993. Which, frankly, I accepted.
Hunger has no conscience.Copy !req
994. The day after my symphony
played the Albert Hall,Copy !req
995. I went back to the shop,Copy !req
996. but she'd gone.
They said she'd left months ago.Copy !req
997. You haven't seen her since?Copy !req
998. Well, have I?Copy !req
999. Yes, you have.Copy !req
1000. I know.Copy !req
1001. I lost my job giving you
those extra music sheets.Copy !req
1002. - You won't hold that against me?
- Of course not.Copy !req
1003. I was very young then.Copy !req
1004. You're very young now.Copy !req
1005. I don't know.
Soon I shall be an old married lady.Copy !req
1006. Then I wish you lots of happiness.Copy !req
1007. Thank you.Copy !req
1008. I wish that waitress would hurry.Copy !req
1009. Before we do the choreography,
I'll explain the story.Copy !req
1010. It's about Harlequinade.Copy !req
1011. Terry is Columbine.
She is dying in a London garret.Copy !req
1012. Harlequin, who is the lover,
and the clowns, are at her bedside.Copy !req
1013. She asks to be carried
to the window.Copy !req
1014. She wants to look upon the rooftops
one last time.Copy !req
1015. The clowns weep. She smiles.Copy !req
1016. Their clothes are not for sorrow
but for laughter.Copy !req
1017. She wants them to perform,
do their tricks.Copy !req
1018. The clowns can do their comedy.Copy !req
1019. - While she's dying?
- Yes.Copy !req
1020. Let me see, where am I?Copy !req
1021. As the clowns perform,
she becomes delirious.Copy !req
1022. Spirits of Columbines
dance before her.Copy !req
1023. Then she dies.
That's the first scene.Copy !req
1024. Next is the graveyard
where Columbine was buried.Copy !req
1025. Harlequin, her lover,
enters in the moonlight.Copy !req
1026. He tries to resurrect her
from the grave.Copy !req
1027. But he fails.Copy !req
1028. The spirits tell him not to grieve.Copy !req
1029. His love is not in the grave,
but everywhere.Copy !req
1030. Then Terry appears.Copy !req
1031. That's your solo, then the finale.Copy !req
1032. We'd better get a move on.
It's only 3 weeks to the opening.Copy !req
1033. Calvero!Copy !req
1034. What is it?Copy !req
1035. - How's it going?
- Wonderful. Thumbs up.Copy !req
1036. - I wish the dance was over.
- You've nothing to worry about.Copy !req
1037. I'm scared. Pray for me.Copy !req
1038. God helps those
who help themselves. Good luck.Copy !req
1039. - I can't go on!
- What?Copy !req
1040. My legs! I can't move!Copy !req
1041. It's nerves. Just move.Copy !req
1042. No, I can't move. I'm paralyzed!Copy !req
1043. Pure hysteria!
There's your cue, get on stage!Copy !req
1044. No, I'm falling!
It's my legs, they're paralyzed!Copy !req
1045. Get on that stage!Copy !req
1046. See? There's nothing wrong
with your legs.Copy !req
1047. Whoever you are, whatever it is,
just keep her going, that's all.Copy !req
1048. I've lost a button.Copy !req
1049. One of these.Copy !req
1050. It's all right.Copy !req
1051. Where's Calvero?
He told me to wait for him here.Copy !req
1052. I'll send the call boy
to look for him.Copy !req
1053. Supper is served.
You're sitting next to Mr. Postant.Copy !req
1054. Supper is now being served
in both lounges.Copy !req
1055. Come along, my dear.
You're next to me.Copy !req
1056. Bodalink, you're down there
my dear fellow.Copy !req
1057. Destiny must be a headwaitress.Copy !req
1058. Why?Copy !req
1059. She seats us together again.Copy !req
1060. She might be your nemesis.Copy !req
1061. I think I'll stand up
under the punishment.Copy !req
1062. However, my congratulations.
Tonight you were wonderful.Copy !req
1063. That's what they call
the old army game.Copy !req
1064. Neville, they tell me
the army's caught up with you.Copy !req
1065. You've joined the army?Copy !req
1066. On the contrary, the army joined me.
I was drafted.Copy !req
1067. That's awful!Copy !req
1068. I agree.
It's carrying the war too far.Copy !req
1069. However, there's the possibility
of joining up here.Copy !req
1070. Would you like to dance?Copy !req
1071. I appeal to your patriotism.
You can't refuse a soldier.Copy !req
1072. Governor, I remember
when you played Widow TwankeyCopy !req
1073. at the Theatre Royal,
Birmingham, in 1890...Copy !req
1074. Go easy there laddie, go easy.Copy !req
1075. Let's have a drink.Copy !req
1076. Calvero, old boy,
how's the world treating you?Copy !req
1077. Rather aggressively at the moment.Copy !req
1078. You don't know me.Copy !req
1079. The fact is most gratifying.Copy !req
1080. Is that supposed to be funny?Copy !req
1081. My man, you will never know.
Have a little drink.Copy !req
1082. Only have it
at the other end of the bar.Copy !req
1083. Pardon me, Miss Thereza is waiting
for you in the dress circle.Copy !req
1084. What is it?Copy !req
1085. Miss Thereza is waiting for you
in the dress circle.Copy !req
1086. Will you kindly tell her not to worry,
I've gone home to bed.Copy !req
1087. Very well, sir.Copy !req
1088. What's happened to Calvero?Copy !req
1089. He left word that he was tired
and had gone home to rest.Copy !req
1090. I must go at once. Say good night
to Mr. Postant for me.Copy !req
1091. I'll get you a cab.Copy !req
1092. I'll walk home.Copy !req
1093. He must be asleep, poor dear.
Too much excitement for him.Copy !req
1094. I'm beginning
to feel the strain myself.Copy !req
1095. Then I'll be going.Copy !req
1096. Shall we see you
before you leave for camp?Copy !req
1097. I leave this morning.Copy !req
1098. Good bye, Terry.Copy !req
1099. No, don't!Copy !req
1100. Say you love me, just a little.Copy !req
1101. Please!Copy !req
1102. I've tried to fight it, but I can't.Copy !req
1103. Please, it's useless.Copy !req
1104. You're as helpless as I am.
We love each other.Copy !req
1105. I never said I loved you.Copy !req
1106. Every look, gesture says it!Copy !req
1107. No, don't say that!Copy !req
1108. I know how devoted
you are to Calvero,Copy !req
1109. but marrying him isn't right.
It isn't fair to you.Copy !req
1110. You're young, just beginning life.Copy !req
1111. This devotion is idealistic.
Your youth!Copy !req
1112. But it isn't love.Copy !req
1113. No, you're wrong.
I really love him.Copy !req
1114. You pity him.Copy !req
1115. It's more than pity.Copy !req
1116. It's something I've lived with,
grown to.Copy !req
1117. It's his soul, his sweetness,
his sadness...Copy !req
1118. Nothing will ever separate me
from that.Copy !req
1119. Good night, Terry.Copy !req
1120. Good bye.Copy !req
1121. Listen to this one:Copy !req
1122. "With ease, Thereza pirouetted
and flexed radiant authority.Copy !req
1123. "She was light,
quicksilver, efflorescing!Copy !req
1124. "A Diana spinning
wisps of beauty about her."Copy !req
1125. Very good.Copy !req
1126. Well, you've done it.Copy !req
1127. How's it feel to wake up famous?Copy !req
1128. That's right, have a good cry
and enjoy it. It only happens once.Copy !req
1129. Let's marry, soon.Copy !req
1130. If we could only get away.
That house in the country,Copy !req
1131. where we could have
peace and happiness.Copy !req
1132. Happiness.Copy !req
1133. The first time I've ever heard you
mention that word.Copy !req
1134. - I'm always happy with you.
- Are you?Copy !req
1135. Of course. I love you.Copy !req
1136. Wasted on an old man.Copy !req
1137. Love is never wasted.Copy !req
1138. Terry, you're like a nun, shutting
everything else out for my sake.Copy !req
1139. It isn't fair, wasting your youth.Copy !req
1140. You deserve more than this.Copy !req
1141. Let me go away.Copy !req
1142. What's come over you?Copy !req
1143. I can't help it!
If I only had the strength to leave!Copy !req
1144. But I stay on, tormenting myself.Copy !req
1145. The whole thing is false.Copy !req
1146. In the few years I have left,
I must have truth.Copy !req
1147. That's all I have left.Copy !req
1148. Truth.Copy !req
1149. That's all I want.Copy !req
1150. And if possible, a little dignity.Copy !req
1151. If you leave me, I'll kill myself.Copy !req
1152. I hate life!
The torment, the cruelty of it.Copy !req
1153. I couldn't go on without you!
Don't you understand, I love you!Copy !req
1154. - You want to love me.
- But I do, I do!Copy !req
1155. It's Neville you love.
I don't blame you.Copy !req
1156. That isn't true.Copy !req
1157. He's the composer
you knew at Sardou's.Copy !req
1158. Yes. I didn't tell you
because I thought it...Copy !req
1159. Inevitable.
I prophesized it, remember?Copy !req
1160. A balcony overlooking the Thames!Copy !req
1161. But it isn't true!Copy !req
1162. In the twilight
he will tell you he loves you.Copy !req
1163. And you will tell him
you've always loved him.Copy !req
1164. But I don't love him! I never did.Copy !req
1165. It was his music, his art.Copy !req
1166. He meant a world
that had been denied me.Copy !req
1167. You look so well together.Copy !req
1168. But I don't love him! I never did.Copy !req
1169. Please, you must believe me!
You must!Copy !req
1170. Dancing's excellent,
but the comedy's poor.Copy !req
1171. We'll have to get rid of that clown.Copy !req
1172. I've called Blackmore's Agency,
they're sending down another man.Copy !req
1173. You know who that clown is?Copy !req
1174. I don't care if it's Calvero himself.
He isn't funny.Copy !req
1175. - But that's who it is.
- What?Copy !req
1176. Calvero,
only he's under another name.Copy !req
1177. Why the devil didn't you tell me?Copy !req
1178. He didn't want it known.Copy !req
1179. Poor old Calvero. Well, that's
different, we'd better keep him.Copy !req
1180. After all,
the comedy isn't too important.Copy !req
1181. But I didn't see him
at the supper party on opening night.Copy !req
1182. He didn't show up.
That's why Thereza left so early.Copy !req
1183. What's he got to do with her?Copy !req
1184. Believe it or not,
she's going to marry him.Copy !req
1185. That old reprobate?Copy !req
1186. Bless my soul,
there's hope for me yet.Copy !req
1187. It's time for rehearsal.Copy !req
1188. Wait a minute.Copy !req
1189. I'll call Blackmore's and cancel
that fellow before he gets down here.Copy !req
1190. If you finish rehearsing early,
don't wait for me.Copy !req
1191. I've so many things to do,
but I'll be home by six.Copy !req
1192. - Calvero?
- Griffin!Copy !req
1193. I haven't seen you in ages!
Where are you working?Copy !req
1194. Nowhere. I'm looking for a job.Copy !req
1195. Blackmore sent me down
to see this new ballet.Copy !req
1196. The Harlequinade?Copy !req
1197. I understand the clown's
not very goodCopy !req
1198. and I could get the part.
Wish me luck.Copy !req
1199. - Good luck, old man.
- Thanks.Copy !req
1200. Mrs. Alsop!Copy !req
1201. What is it?Copy !req
1202. What on earth is the matter?Copy !req
1203. Calvero, where is he?
Have you seen him?Copy !req
1204. - What do you mean?
- He's left me!Copy !req
1205. He's gone!Copy !req
1206. Would you like to contribute?Copy !req
1207. Captain,
would you like to contribute?Copy !req
1208. No, that's all right, put it in.Copy !req
1209. I've no false pride.Copy !req
1210. Sit down, have a drink.Copy !req
1211. Thank you, old man, not during
office hours. But I'll sit down.Copy !req
1212. May I?Copy !req
1213. How are you?Copy !req
1214. Never felt better in my life!Copy !req
1215. And how is the army treating you?Copy !req
1216. Not so bad.Copy !req
1217. I get up to London every other week.Copy !req
1218. Have you seen Terry?Copy !req
1219. How is she?Copy !req
1220. After you left she was quite ill.Copy !req
1221. But she's all right now?Copy !req
1222. She's been touring the continent.
Since she got back she's much better.Copy !req
1223. Good.Copy !req
1224. She never told me
what happened between you.Copy !req
1225. What could happen,
but the inevitable?Copy !req
1226. You see a great deal of her?Copy !req
1227. Good.Copy !req
1228. Somehow I knew
it would work out that way.Copy !req
1229. Time is the great author.Copy !req
1230. It always writes
the perfect ending.Copy !req
1231. Great Scott!Copy !req
1232. How do you do, Mr. Postant?Copy !req
1233. Just a moment.
You're just the man I want to see.Copy !req
1234. Would you like to contribute?Copy !req
1235. Are you with that outfit outside?Copy !req
1236. I am, sir.Copy !req
1237. Oh, thank you.Copy !req
1238. You oughtn't to be doing this!Copy !req
1239. Why not? All the world's a stage.Copy !req
1240. And this one is the most legitimate.Copy !req
1241. I must go, or my confreres will
think I've run off with the takings.Copy !req
1242. Thank you, gentlemen.Copy !req
1243. Don't you think
I should tell Terry I've seen you?Copy !req
1244. Knowing I'm doing this sort of thing
might upset her.Copy !req
1245. Although I don't mind it.Copy !req
1246. There's something
about working the streets I like.Copy !req
1247. It's the tramp in me, I suppose.Copy !req
1248. Wait a minute. Why don't you
come and see me at my office?Copy !req
1249. - What about?
- Business.Copy !req
1250. I never discuss business,
I leave that to my agent. Call him up.Copy !req
1251. However I'm booked up solid,
you know.Copy !req
1252. Au revoir, Gentlemen.Copy !req
1253. Driver, stop!
Please, turn around.Copy !req
1254. Keep the change.Copy !req
1255. Cyrano de Bergerac,
without the nose.Copy !req
1256. Let's sit down.Copy !req
1257. So they told you, huh?Copy !req
1258. I've been searching
all over London for you.Copy !req
1259. The same Terry.Copy !req
1260. Am I?Copy !req
1261. A little more grown up, that's all.Copy !req
1262. I don't want to grow up.Copy !req
1263. None of us do.Copy !req
1264. But I had to, after you left.Copy !req
1265. It's all for the best.
All for the best.Copy !req
1266. Perhaps.Copy !req
1267. I don't know.Copy !req
1268. But something's gone.Copy !req
1269. Gone forever.Copy !req
1270. Nothing's gone,Copy !req
1271. it only changes.Copy !req
1272. I still love you.Copy !req
1273. Of course you do.Copy !req
1274. You always will.Copy !req
1275. Calvero, come back.Copy !req
1276. You've got to come back!Copy !req
1277. I can't.
I must go forward.Copy !req
1278. That's progress.Copy !req
1279. Then let me go with you.Copy !req
1280. I'll do everything in the world
to make you happy.Copy !req
1281. That's what hurts.
I know you will.Copy !req
1282. Mr. Postant said
he'd give you a benefit.Copy !req
1283. I don't want his charity.Copy !req
1284. It isn't charity.Copy !req
1285. He says it'd be the greatest
event in theatrical history.Copy !req
1286. I'm not interested in events.Copy !req
1287. But I would like a chance just
to show them I'm not through yet.Copy !req
1288. Of course.Copy !req
1289. I've still got ideas, you know.Copy !req
1290. I've been working on,
working on... a comedy act,Copy !req
1291. for myself and my friend.Copy !req
1292. It's sort of a musical satire.Copy !req
1293. Wonderful!Copy !req
1294. You know he's a very good pianist,
and me with the violin...Copy !req
1295. A lot of very really
really very funny business.Copy !req
1296. Come in.Copy !req
1297. Sit down, my dear.
You look tired.Copy !req
1298. I've been working with the claque,
going over Calvero's jokes.Copy !req
1299. I gave them cue sheets so
they'll know exactly where to laugh.Copy !req
1300. Are the jokes as bad as all that?Copy !req
1301. I'm worried. If he fails tonight,
it'll kill him. I know it.Copy !req
1302. He won't fail. The audience
will be most sympathetic.Copy !req
1303. But he doesn't want sympathy.
He keeps saying that.Copy !req
1304. He wants to be a genuine success.Copy !req
1305. What does he expect?
You know he's not the man he was.Copy !req
1306. He mustn't be told that!Copy !req
1307. Tell me, my dear,Copy !req
1308. are you still going to marry him?Copy !req
1309. I'll do anything in the world
to make him happy.Copy !req
1310. He's a very lucky man.Copy !req
1311. He's a very, very lucky man.Copy !req
1312. I never thought we'd come to this.Copy !req
1313. Here we have the star dressing room
without a dresser.Copy !req
1314. Oh well, I guess we can put up
with it for one night.Copy !req
1315. Fred, the stage manager.Copy !req
1316. Come in, Fred.Copy !req
1317. Like old times,
seeing you in this room again.Copy !req
1318. What's on your mind?Copy !req
1319. You've got 10 minutes, because
there's 20 other acts to follow.Copy !req
1320. You're in a song first,
finishing up with a musical act.Copy !req
1321. I'll ring down
after you fall in the drum.Copy !req
1322. No, after I'm carried off
in the drum.Copy !req
1323. Right you are. Thank you, sir.Copy !req
1324. If anybody else says it's like old
times, I'll jump out the window!Copy !req
1325. First the doorman,
then the call boy,Copy !req
1326. now the stage manager.Copy !req
1327. It's me, Postant.Copy !req
1328. It's like old times seeing you here
again putting on your war paint.Copy !req
1329. I'll be down
watching the other acts.Copy !req
1330. Yes, like old times.
Only in those days you were drunk.Copy !req
1331. I'm supposed to be funnier
when I'm drunk.Copy !req
1332. Maybe, but you were killing yourself.Copy !req
1333. You know, anything for a laugh.
How's the house?Copy !req
1334. Packed. Every face card in Europe
is out there:Copy !req
1335. kings, queens, jacks...Copy !req
1336. - Is Neville out there?
- Yes. Came up specially.Copy !req
1337. And what a program!Copy !req
1338. Take a look at that. Every star
in the business is appearing.Copy !req
1339. It'll be something,
following all this talent.Copy !req
1340. Don't worry. Tonight you'll
make them look like amateurs.Copy !req
1341. That's all any of us are. Amateurs.Copy !req
1342. We don't live long enough
to be anything else.Copy !req
1343. Well, as one old amateur
to another...Copy !req
1344. - Good luck.
- Thank you, Mr. Postant.Copy !req
1345. Come in.Copy !req
1346. How do I look?Copy !req
1347. Funny.Copy !req
1348. I know what you're thinking,
my health and all that.Copy !req
1349. But I had to take a drink.Copy !req
1350. There's a creamy white light
turning off and on in my stomach.Copy !req
1351. And that's not so good,
if I'm to be a success tonight.Copy !req
1352. Is it really worth it?Copy !req
1353. Not that I care for success,
but I don't want another failure.Copy !req
1354. Whatever happens, there's always
that little home in the country.Copy !req
1355. This is my home. Here.Copy !req
1356. I thought you hated the theatre.Copy !req
1357. I do. I also hate the sight of blood
but it's in my veins.Copy !req
1358. Come in.Copy !req
1359. Mr. Calvero, on stage please!Copy !req
1360. Good luck, sir.
They're all waiting for you.Copy !req
1361. Thanks.Copy !req
1362. I don't like it.Copy !req
1363. Everyone's so kind to me.Copy !req
1364. Makes me feel isolated.Copy !req
1365. Even you make me feel isolated.Copy !req
1366. Why do you say that?Copy !req
1367. I don't know.Copy !req
1368. I really don't know.Copy !req
1369. - Oh, your change.
- No, no.Copy !req
1370. Of course!Copy !req
1371. All right, turn it off up there!Copy !req
1372. Your change is all ready.Copy !req
1373. Good luck, my darling.Copy !req
1374. - Aren't you going to watch?
- I can't.Copy !req
1375. But remember I love you.Copy !req
1376. Really?Copy !req
1377. Always. With all my heart.Copy !req
1378. Ready, Mr. Calvero?Copy !req
1379. Good luck, my darling.Copy !req
1380. Let her go!Copy !req
1381. I'm an animal trainer
A circus entertainerCopy !req
1382. I've trained animals by the score
Lions, tigers and wild boarCopy !req
1383. That's not Phyllis!Copy !req
1384. Where's Phyllis?Copy !req
1385. There she is!Copy !req
1386. When I was three
My nurse told meCopy !req
1387. About reincarnationCopy !req
1388. And ever since
I've been convincedCopy !req
1389. Thrilled with anticipationCopy !req
1390. That when I leave this earthCopy !req
1391. It makes my heart feel warmCopy !req
1392. To know that I'll returnCopy !req
1393. In some other formCopy !req
1394. But I don't want to be a treeCopy !req
1395. Sticking in the groundCopy !req
1396. I'd sooner be a fleaCopy !req
1397. I don't want to be a flowerCopy !req
1398. Waiting by the hourCopy !req
1399. Hoping for a pollen to alight on meCopy !req
1400. So when I cease to beCopy !req
1401. I want to go back
I want to go back to the seaCopy !req
1402. Oh for the life of a sardine
That is the life for meCopy !req
1403. Cavorting and spawning
every morningCopy !req
1404. Under the deep blue seaCopy !req
1405. To have no fear for storm or gale
Oh to chase the tail of a whaleCopy !req
1406. Oh for the life of a sardineCopy !req
1407. That is the life for meCopy !req
1408. You're 3 minutes over!Copy !req
1409. It's the audience.Copy !req
1410. Bow and finish.Copy !req
1411. I've another act to do.Copy !req
1412. Bow and finish!Copy !req
1413. What am I to do?Copy !req
1414. Just finish.
There are 15 other acts to follow.Copy !req
1415. Look, I've got Postant
on the telephone!Copy !req
1416. Please, please.
Will you give me a chance?Copy !req
1417. What's wrong?
Why isn't he doing an encore?Copy !req
1418. I can't keep the other acts waiting.
They're complaining.Copy !req
1419. That's your problem.
He does an encore.Copy !req
1420. Do your encore!Copy !req
1421. Mmm, you darling!Copy !req
1422. - Here, take this.
- What is it?Copy !req
1423. I have a terrific pain
in my back and chest.Copy !req
1424. Dr. Blake is in the house.
Shall I get him?Copy !req
1425. Yes, get him at once!Copy !req
1426. - What's wrong?
- He's hurt his spine.Copy !req
1427. - Did you send for the doctor?
- Yes.Copy !req
1428. Then carry him
to his dressing room.Copy !req
1429. I'll tell the audience
there's been an accident.Copy !req
1430. No, don't do that!
Carry me on.Copy !req
1431. I'll talk to them.
You'll ruin the evening.Copy !req
1432. On behalf of my partner,
and myself...Copy !req
1433. This is a wonderful evening.Copy !req
1434. I'd like to continue,
but I'm stuck.Copy !req
1435. Take off his makeup.Copy !req
1436. Is there a couch
in his dressing room?Copy !req
1437. No, but there's one
in the prop room.Copy !req
1438. Take him in there.Copy !req
1439. Everyone else must wait outside.Copy !req
1440. Where's Calvero?
Where is the old scoundrel?Copy !req
1441. I want to congratulate him.
Where's Calvero?Copy !req
1442. In the prop room.
He's had an accident.Copy !req
1443. Here's the doctor now.Copy !req
1444. I want an ambulance at once.Copy !req
1445. Is it serious, Doctor?Copy !req
1446. Very. It isn't his back,
it's a heart attack.Copy !req
1447. - Is he in pain?
- Not now. I've given him something.Copy !req
1448. I'm afraid he won't last the night.Copy !req
1449. What have they been telling you?Copy !req
1450. Are you all right?Copy !req
1451. Of course.Copy !req
1452. I'm an old weed.Copy !req
1453. The more I'm cut down,
