0:01:08:ANNOUNCER (ON RADIO):
The resulting|
action, known now by all the world...
0:01:11:
... has marked Sunday,|
September the 3rd, 1939...
0:01:15:
... as a date to be long remembered.
0:01:17:
At 11: 15 this morning,|
the prime minister...
0:01:20:
... speaking to the nation|
from Number 10 Downing Street...
0:01:23:
... announced that Great Britain|
is at war with Germany.
0:01:27:
The London public|
are earnestly reminded...
0:01:29:
... of the emergency orders|
already issued.
0:01:31:
No light of any description|
should be visible after blackout time.
0:01:35:
No dogs or cats will be allowed|
to roam the streets after dark.
0:01:38:
It should be remembered that pets will not|
be permitted in public air-raid shelters.
0:01:43:
Gas masks and warm clothing|
should be placed at hand before retiring.
0:01:47:
It is suggested that a warm drink|
in a Thermos...
0:01:49:
... would be of great comfort|
to children...
0:01:52:
... who might have to be awakened|
at an unusual hour.
0:01:54:
Every effort should be made|
to quiet the nerves...
0:01:57:
... of those children who remain|
despite the evacuation...
0:02:00:
... which will continue|
until a late hour this evening.
0:02:05:MAN:|Colonel Cronin's car.
0:02:17:I was right, Thomas. It's tonight.
0:02:20:To France, sir?
0:02:22:Waterloo Station.
0:02:24:Yes, sir.
0:02:31:Be familiar to you, won't it, sir?
0:02:33:I mean, having been through|the last one.
0:02:36:Yes. It'll be familiar.
0:02:44:- Thomas.|- Sir?
0:02:47:Go by way of Waterloo Bridge, will you?
0:02:49:Waterloo Bridge, sir?
0:02:52:We have plenty of time.
0:02:54:Right, sir.
0:03:05:Wait for me at the other end of the bridge.|I'll walk across.

Here. Take this.
0:04:26:ROY:|
Your good-luck charm?
0:04:28:MYRA:|
Perhaps it'll bring you luck.
0:04:30:
I hope it will.
0:04:32:
I'll pray it will.
0:04:36:ROY:|
That's wonderfully kind of you.
0:04:38:MYRA:|
Do you think you'll remember me now?
0:04:41:ROY:|
I think so.
0:04:45:
I think so.
0:04:48:
For the rest of my life.
0:05:13:(SIREN WAILING IN DISTANCE)
0:05:34:WOMAN 1: It was a siren. I heard it.|WOMAN 2: You're dreaming.
0:05:36:- I didn't hear a thing.|WOMAN 1: Did you, Myra?
0:05:38:Stop, listen.
0:05:40:There it is again.
0:05:43:Be quiet, please, all of you.
0:05:45:- Was that an air-raid warning?|- I'm afraid it was. We'll know in a minute.
0:05:49:An air raid. I told you we'll be late.|Madame will be furious.
0:05:52:- We should worry about madame.|WOMAN: Look. Look.
0:05:57:MAN:|Air raid!
0:05:59:(SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY)
0:06:01:- Where can we go?|- The underground station.
0:06:03:- Come on, girls.|- To your right! To your right!
0:06:06:- To your right.|WOMAN: Hurry.
0:06:07:Come on.
0:06:09:(SIREN WAILING IN DISTANCE)
0:06:17:Stupid bag. It always does this.
0:06:20:- Thank you so much.|- They're out to strafe this bridge.
0:06:22:- We'd better get off it.|- Oh, my lucky charm.
0:06:28:You little fool. Are you tired of life?
0:06:30:- I've had it for years. It brings me luck.|- Such as air raids.
0:06:34:(EXPLOSION IN DISTANCE)
0:06:36:Do you think it'd be too unmilitary|if we were to run?
0:06:39:Not at all.
0:06:43:Do you mind?
0:06:46:MAN:|
News Weekly. Read about it.
0:06:52:Paper.
0:06:54:"Here, no pushing," he says.
0:06:55:And I says, "You'd blooming well push|if your hind legs were still outside."
0:06:59:OLD WOMAN: I always run about,|meseIf. As me old man says:
0:07:02:"A moving target is harder to hit."
0:07:04:- Ain't it?|OLD MAN: Not haIf.
0:07:06:(EXPLOSION)
0:07:09:Blimey, 'Erman's a ruddy marksman,|ain't he?
0:07:12:- 'Erman?|- Yes, 'Erman the German.
0:07:15:(LAUGHING)
0:07:18:Oh...!
0:07:19:Oh, I'm... I'm sorry.
0:07:21:There seems to be|a certain amount of shoving.
0:07:24:It is a crush, isn't it?
0:07:25:(EXPLOSION)
0:07:28:Mm, that one was close.
0:07:30:We're safe here.
0:07:32:There may be some space|over there by the wall.
0:07:34:- Shall we wiggle through?|- All right.
0:07:36:- Excuse us, please.|- All right.
0:07:39:Excuse me. Thank you very much.
0:07:41:(INDISTINCT MUTTERING)
0:07:46:- Better, eh?|- Yes, thanks. Much better.
0:07:51:- Looking for your friends?|- Yes. Perhaps they took another entrance.
0:07:55:- Do you mind?|- Oh, no, no.
0:07:58:I suppose I mustn't offer you one?
0:08:00:Uh, no, thanks.
0:08:02:You're at school, aren't you?
0:08:04:(LAUGHS)
0:08:06:Am I being funny?
0:08:08:Oh, look, that's our school.|Madame Kirowa's International Ballet.
0:08:14:- International Ballet?|- Mm-hm.
0:08:16:Look here,|you don't mean to say you're a dancer?
0:08:18:- Yes.|- A professional dancer?
0:08:20:Uh, now and then, I wonder.
0:08:23:And you mean you can pirouette|and all that sort of thing?
0:08:26:Certainly. I can do an entrechat six.
0:08:29:- I beg your pardon?|- I can cross my feet six times in midair.
0:08:33:Nijinsky could do 10,|but that only happens once in a century.
0:08:36:Well, it must be good for the muscles|of the... Must be good for the muscles.
0:08:41:I should think a dancer's muscles|would be like a strongman.
0:08:43:Oh, not quite. That'd be dreadful.
0:08:45:We try to combine slenderness|with strength.
0:08:47:Well, I've been dancing since I was 12.
0:08:50:I don't think the muscles|are overdeveloped.
0:08:52:Oh, no. No, no. Not in your case.
0:08:55:Of course, we have to train like athletes.|Madame believes in rigid discipline.
0:08:59:- You expect to get to the theater tonight?|- Certainly. We don't go on till 10.
0:09:04:- I wish I could be there.|- Why don't you come?
0:09:07:No, unfortunately,|I have a colonel's dinner.
0:09:09:It takes a lot of nerve|to miss a colonel's dinner.
0:09:12:- Are you on leave?|- I have been. My home's in Scotland.
0:09:14:Now you have to go back?|To France, I mean.
0:09:16:- Tomorrow.|- Oh, I'm so sorry.
0:09:19:This hateful war.
0:09:21:Yes, I suppose it is.
0:09:24:And yet there's, I don't know...
0:09:26:...a certain amount of excitement|about it too.
0:09:28:Around the corner of every second,|the fascination of the unknown.
0:09:33:We're facing it this instant.
0:09:34:Oh, we face the unknown|in peacetime too.
0:09:37:- You're rather matter-of-fact, aren't you?|- Yes.
0:09:41:You're rather romantic, aren't you?
0:09:43:(WHISTLE BLOWS)
0:09:45:MAN:|All clear!
0:09:47:All clear!
0:09:50:Well, there we are. I'm afraid it's over.|Never enjoyed an air raid more.
0:09:54:Shall we go now or wait for the next?
0:09:56:Oh, it's very tempting,|but I think we'd better go.
0:10:00:Shall I carry that?
0:10:01:No, no. I only drop it in emergencies.
0:10:03:Well, I hope I'm around|the next time it happens.
0:10:06:It isn't very likely, is it?|You go back to France and...
0:10:09:- And you?|- We may go to America.
0:10:12:Oh, that does make it unlikely.
0:10:14:I'm sorry.
0:10:16:So am I.
0:10:19:MAN:|Read all about it.
0:10:22:Read all about it.
0:10:24:It's so late.|I'm afraid I'll have to take a taxi.
0:10:27:That may not be so simple.
0:10:38:- I don't know any...|- I wish I could have seen the...
0:10:40:(BOTH CHUCKLE)
0:10:42:- What were you going to say?|- I wish I could have seen the ballet.
0:10:45:I'm sure it would have been|a pleasant memory in the trenches.
0:10:48:What were you going to say?
0:10:50:Oh, it's just that I don't know anyone|at the front...
0:10:53:...and I'm afraid it'll bring it home|to me now, knowing you.
0:10:56:- Not that I really know you, of course.|BOY: Here you are, governor.
0:11:04:Thank you very much.
0:11:07:I hope you get back safe and sound.
0:11:09:Thank you.
0:11:10:Here...
0:11:12:...take this.
0:11:17:ROY:|Your good-luck charm?
0:11:18:Perhaps it'll bring you luck.|I hope it does.
0:11:20:Oh, now, look here.|I can't take it. It means so much to you.
0:11:23:You'd better have it.|I was beginning to rely on it too much.
0:11:26:Well, that's wonderfully kind of you.
0:11:29:Olympic Theatre, please.
0:11:32:- Goodbye.|- Goodbye.
0:11:48:(ORCHESTRA PLAYING|"SWAN LAKE, OP. 20")
0:12:55:- Kitty, he's here.|- Who?
0:12:57:Oh, the man in the underground?
0:13:03:I don't understand.|He said he couldn't come.
0:13:05:- I suppose he just came to see the show.|- You don't suppose anything of the kind.
0:13:09:- You said he had to go to a colonel's dinner.|- It's not what I said. It's what he said.
0:14:03:(APPLAUSE)
0:14:14:He's nice, isn't he?
0:14:15:He's a bit of all right.|Must have ditched the colonel.
0:14:18:Think he'll come backstage?|What'll madame say?
0:14:20:We must watch and pray.
0:14:25:Oh, girls. Girls, girls.|Please. Please do be quiet.
0:14:29:You know how madame hates noise.
0:14:33:Shh! Shh, shh!
0:14:39:Maureen.
0:14:42:What is pas de bourrée?
0:14:45:A pas de bourrée is a progression on points|by a sequence of very small, even steps.
0:14:49:If you know it, why don't you do it|during the performance?
0:14:55:Elsa.
0:14:59:Your arabesques were jumpy.|They were positively epileptic.
0:15:05:Really, I was concerned for you.
0:15:07:Ana.
0:15:11:Show the young ladies, please,|how to do an entrechat quatre.
0:15:19:And may I ask, why didn't you do it|that way for the audience?
0:15:24:They also have some rights, you know.
0:15:28:The performance tonight was disgraceful.
0:15:32:We are playing for the moment|in a variety theater but...
0:15:35:(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
0:15:36:Kitty.
0:15:38:But that doesn't mean|you should work with less precision...
0:15:43:...than performing seals,|which precede you.
0:15:47:You don't honor the ballet|by your presence in it.
0:15:51:The ballet honors you.
0:15:54:Are there questions?
0:15:56:Hm.
0:16:04:- Yes, madame?|- The note, Kitty.
0:16:07:The note that was handed to you.
0:16:10:Oh, well, it... It's just from an old friend,|a man I used to know in a show.
0:16:14:I don't need to be reminded|that you were a chorus girl in a revue.
0:16:19:- Your behavior...|- Madame.
0:16:20:- Myra.|- No, Kitty. It's for me, madame.
0:16:24:Then you may read it.

0:16:33:- Madame, I...|- Read it, please.

0:16:42:"As you see, I cannot bear to spend|my last evening with my colonel after all.
0:16:47:Please have supper with me.|Your friend of the shelter.
0:16:50:P.S. I am sure you will|because I have a good-luck charm...
0:16:54:...which has already changed my luck."
0:16:56:- And the signature?|- There isn't one.
0:16:58:And if there were one, what would it be?
0:17:02:I don't know. I only know he's an officer.
0:17:04:Indeed?
0:17:05:I must emphasize that if you want|supper parties, officers and delights...
0:17:11:...you shouldn't be here with me|but in other occupation.
0:17:16:Lydia, paper, please.
0:17:20:A war is no excuse for indecorum.
0:17:35:Write, please. "Dear sir."|What's his rank?
0:17:40:Captain.
0:17:41:"Dear captain."
0:17:54:- Here you are, sir.|- Oh, thank you.
0:17:57:Thank you, sir.
0:18:01:No-go, sir?
0:18:03:No, I'm afraid not.
0:18:09:Oh, captain. Captain. Wait a minute.
0:18:13:I'm Kitty, Myra's friend.|Where do you want to meet her?
0:18:16:What? Myra?
0:18:17:- Oh, how do you do?|- I do very well, thank you.
0:18:20:- But where do you want to meet her?|- Well, l... But she, uh, she refused.
0:18:24:Oh, take no notice.|The old dragon made her write that.
0:18:26:- She'll come after all?|- Name the place.
0:18:28:- Yes, does she know the Candlelight Club?|- No, but I do.
0:18:31:- Good, then. I'll be there in an hour, say?|- An hour.
0:18:35:Look here.|I hope I'm doing the right thing.
0:18:39:Myra's just a sweet child.|You can see that, can't you?
0:18:44:I can see that, Kitty.
0:18:49:Bye-bye, captain.
0:18:54:(LAUGHS)
0:19:24:MYRA: Hello.|- Oh, hello.
0:19:27:I'm delighted. I was afraid Kitty|had directed you to the wrong place.
0:19:30:Oh, no, but your note was read out|before the whole class.
0:19:34:Were you embarrassed?
0:19:35:Yes, and so would you have been.
0:19:36:Ha, ha, I dare say. I'm afraid|I've made it difficult for you.
0:19:40:Well, you gave up the colonel,|so I expect I made it difficult for you too.
0:19:44:Yes, you did, but I have my reward.|It was wonderful of you to come.
0:19:47:- Shall we go in?|- All right.
0:20:08:Excuse me.
0:20:10:How nice you look.
0:20:12:Thank you.
0:20:16:(ROY CHUCKLES)
0:20:17:What do dancers eat?
0:20:18:Oh, dull things mostly.|Nutritious yet not fattening.
0:20:22:Oh, no, not tonight.
0:20:23:What could you suggest that would be|particularly rich and indigestible?
0:20:27:- The grouse is very nice, sir.|- Mm-hm.
0:20:29:And wine. It isn't against the rules|for a dancer to drink a little light wine, is it?
0:20:34:- Tonight...|- Good. Number 40, please.
0:20:35:Number 40, sir.
0:20:38:- Ah, the ballet was beautiful.|- Madame didn't think so.
0:20:41:Well, experts never know.|It takes outsiders to know.
0:20:44:- And I tell you it was beautiful.|- That certainly proves you're an outsider.
0:20:49:Are you glad to see me again?
0:20:51:Yes.
0:20:53:I sense a reservation.
0:20:57:- Well, I suppose there is one.|- What? Why?
0:21:00:What's the good of it?
0:21:03:You're a strange girl, aren't you?|What's the good of anything?
0:21:06:- What's the good of living?|- That's a question too.
0:21:09:Now wait a minute. I'm not|going to let you get away with that.
0:21:12:The wonderful thing about living|is that this sort of thing can happen.
0:21:16:In the shadow of a death raid, I can|meet you and feel more intensely alive...
0:21:19:...than walking around in peacetime,|taking my life for granted.
0:21:22:It's a high price to pay for it.
0:21:24:- I don't think so.|- I do.
0:21:27:Do people have to kill each other|to give them a heightened sense of life?
0:21:32:That's got nothing to do|with people killing each other.
0:21:35:Either you're excited about life|or you're not.
0:21:38:You know, I've never been able|to wait for the future.
0:21:41:When I was very young, a child in fact,|I climbed to the top of a high tree...
0:21:45:...stood like a diver, and announced|to my horrified governess:
0:21:48:"Now I shall take a leap|into the future," and jumped.
0:21:52:- I was in the hospital for two months.|- Ha.
0:21:54:Let the future catch up|with you more slowly.
0:21:56:Oh, no, no, never.|Temperament. I can't help it.
0:21:59:If we'd met in ordinary times|in an ordinary way, we'd just about...
0:22:03:...be telling each other|what schools we went to.
0:22:09:We're much further along,|don't you think?
0:22:12:Are we?
0:22:14:You know we are.
0:22:17:- Oh, I'm too excited to eat. Let's dance.|- All right.
0:22:20:(BAND PLAYING|"LONG WAY TO TIPPERARY")

0:22:39:To us.
0:22:45:Still don't get it. Not quite.
0:22:47:What?
0:22:49:Your face. It's all youth, all beauty.
0:22:53:What is it you still don't get?
0:22:57:You know, when I left you this afternoon,|I couldn't remember what you looked like.
0:23:01:I thought, "Was she pretty?
0:23:03:Was she ugly? What was she like?"|I couldn't remember.
0:23:06:I had to get to that theater tonight|to see what you looked like.
0:23:09:And do you think|you'll remember me now?
0:23:13:I think so.
0:23:16:I think so.
0:23:18:For the rest of my life.
0:23:23:But what is it about me|you still don't get?
0:23:26:(VIOLINS PLAY FANFARE)
0:23:28:Ladies and gentlemen, we now come|to the last dance of the evening.
0:23:32:I hope you'll enjoy the farewell waltz.
0:23:35:I'll tell you later. Let's dance now.
0:23:38:What's it mean, these candles?
0:23:40:You'll find out.
0:23:42:(BAND PLAYING "AULD LANG SYNE")
0:26:30:I'll write to you. Will you answer?
0:26:32:Of course.
0:26:34:Wonderful evening, wasn't it?
0:26:36:Yes. Thank you very much.
0:26:39:When I come back, we'Il...|We'll go there again.
0:26:41:- Yes.|- That'll be our place.
0:26:44:That's where we'll always|recapture this evening.
0:26:48:Do you think we'll ever|see each other again?
0:26:50:I think it's doubtful, don't you?
0:26:53:Yes, I suppose it is.
0:26:56:What was it you started to tell me|in the restaurant...
0:26:59:...that you didn't understand about me?
0:27:01:Heh. No use going into it now.
0:27:04:No, but tell me, please. I'd like to know.
0:27:07:Well, it struck me as curious|ever since I met you...
0:27:10:...you know, from that very|early moment ages ago...
0:27:14:...that you're so young,|so lovely and so defeatist.
0:27:18:I mean, you don't seem|to expect much from life.
0:27:21:Well, aren't I right?
0:27:23:For instance, I met you...
0:27:26:...I liked you...
0:27:28:...and now so soon we have to part...
0:27:30:...and perhaps|we'll never see each other again.
0:27:32:You can conceive that, then,|our never seeing each other again?
0:27:36:Yes, I can.
0:27:42:- This is where you live?|- Yes.
0:27:44:Well, nothing to do about it, is there?
0:27:47:Nothing except to say goodbye.
0:27:50:I suppose so.
0:27:53:Goodbye.
0:27:54:Goodbye, Myra, dear.
0:27:56:Goodbye, Roy.
0:27:59:- Keep well.|- Yes, you too. Keep well.

0:29:34:On being up.
0:29:36:Considering that you didn't go|to bed until 4, it's remarkable.
0:29:41:I have the feeling your performance tonight|will give the effect of sleepwalking.
0:29:46:Well, it's the first time|Myra's been out, madame.
0:29:49:When I made you send the note|to the military gentleman last night...
0:29:52:...it was you I was trying to protect.
0:29:56:I am fond of the girls who work for me.
0:29:58:- I don't want them to be camp followers.|- You don't know him...
0:30:02:...or you wouldn't say that.|- Can't we have any private lives at all?
0:30:06:Not when it hurts your public life|at the theater.
0:30:10:I'm happy that|he didn't stay here a week.
0:30:13:Otherwise he would have ruined|six performances instead of one.
0:30:17:If such a thing should happen|again with you...
0:30:19:...or any of the others,|it means instant dismissal.
0:30:26:I will see you at the theater tonight...
0:30:30:...if it's not too much trouble.
0:30:41:Oh, why is she so cruel and hateful?
0:30:43:KITTY:|Oh, the old broomstick.
0:30:45:She talks to us all like that.
0:30:47:Never mind.
0:30:49:- She spoils everything.|- Oh, rubbish.
0:30:52:You're upset and tired.
0:30:54:Why don't you go back to bed?|There's no rehearsal today.
0:30:57:No, I'm not tired.
0:31:02:Horrible morning for the channel crossing.
0:31:04:I suppose he's gone now.
0:31:06:Yep, suppose so.
0:31:28:Kitty. Kitty, look. He's here.
0:31:31:Look.
0:31:32:KITTY:|Good heavens, he deserted.
0:31:34:MYRA: He's here. He hasn't gone.|KITTY: He'll be court-martialed for this.
0:31:37:Oh, I've gotta go. Gotta go.
0:31:38:Now, calm down, will you?|I can't stand this excitement now.
0:31:42:- You see him, don't you?|- If that's his ghost, don't bring him up.
0:31:46:Get away from that window.|He'll see you in your slip.
0:31:48:Kitty, come on, help me. Where's my hat?|Oh, why wasn't I dressed? Oh!
0:31:53:Oh, Kitty, Kitty. Come on.
0:31:55:Oh, Kitty, what if l...? What'll he...?|Do you suppose...? Oh, dear.
0:31:59:Oh, Kitty, what do you think? Oh, Kitty.
0:32:02:- Oh, there. Do I look all right?|- Yes, you look all right.
0:32:05:- You'd look better with a dress on.|- Oh, yes.
0:32:07:- Come on, now.|- Hurry.
0:32:09:A little lower. Myra, stop it.
0:32:11:Oh, come on. Goodness,|I don't know what I'm doing.
0:32:14:I must see him.|Oh, dear. These stupid buttons.
0:32:17:Oh, Kitty, I just want to...|I just want to...
0:32:20:Oh, Kitty, he came back.|I was beginning to think...
0:32:23:But he didn't. He came back. Oh!
0:32:27:Is he still there?
0:32:29:- He is. He is.|- Hey, wait a minute. Wait a minute.
0:32:32:I'll get you a mackintosh.
0:32:33:Your umbrella's in the corner there.
0:32:36:Here, put this on.
0:32:38:Now, I'm going to go first. You don't|want to run into madame on the way down.
0:32:46:Wait a minute.
0:32:50:All clear. And please|tell him no more false alarms.
0:32:53:I can't stand the excitement.
0:33:07:- Hello.|- Hello.
0:33:17:Nice of you to come and see me.
0:33:19:Not at all.
0:33:20:You didn't go.
0:33:23:Couldn't. Mines in the channel.|Forty-eight hours' leave.
0:33:26:Oh, isn't that wonderful?
0:33:29:Yes.
0:33:30:I have two whole days.
0:33:35:I thought about you all last night,|couldn't sleep a wink.
0:33:39:- You managed to remember me at last?|- Yes, barely managed.
0:33:43:Myra, what do you think|we're going to do today?
0:33:45:- Well, l...|- You won't have time for that.
0:33:47:- For what?|- For hesitating. No more hesitating.
0:33:50:- No?|- No.
0:33:51:- What am I going to do instead?|- You're going to get married.
0:33:55:- Roy, you must be mad.|- I know it. Marvelous sensation.
0:33:57:- Oh, Roy, do be sensible.|- Not me.
0:33:59:But you don't know me.
0:34:00:I'll discover you.|Spend the rest of my life doing it.
0:34:03:This is wartime.|It's because you're leaving so soon.
0:34:05:Because you feel that you must spend|the whole of your life in 48 hours.
0:34:09:We're going to be married.|It's you. It'll never be anyone else.
0:34:13:But how can you tell that?
0:34:14:Listen. None of your quibbling,|your questioning.
0:34:17:None of your doubts.|This is positive, you see?
0:34:19:This is affirmative, you see?|This is final, you see?
0:34:23:You're going to marry me, you see?
0:34:26:I see.
0:34:32:(WHISTLES)
0:34:34:What's the matter, darling?
0:34:35:- Where are we going?|- To announce our engagement.
0:34:39:To the barracks. Armour Square.
0:34:43:Now, Myra, I wanna give you|a picture of what you're in for.
0:34:46:- All right.|- I have to acquaint you with certain facts.
0:34:49:In the first place, my dear young lady,|I am a captain in the Rendleshire Fusiliers.
0:34:53:- Are you impressed?|- Very much.
0:34:55:A captain in the Rendleshire Fusiliers|cannot marry casually.
0:34:58:It requires immense preparation,|formality, etiquette.
0:35:01:- I see it does.|- It's an elaborate ritual.
0:35:03:- Is it?|- Mm-hm. For example...
0:35:05:...a captain in the Rendleshire Fusiliers|has to get the consent of his colonel.
0:35:10:- Is that difficult?|- Well, it might or it might not be.
0:35:12:- I feel it's going to be difficult.|- A great deal depends upon the petitioner.
0:35:17:On the charm of the petitioner.|On his ardor, on his eloquence.
0:35:20:- Myra, look at me.|- Yes, captain.
0:35:23:Can you doubt the outcome?
0:35:25:You are very conceited, captain.|You are quite mad, captain.
0:35:29:You are reckless and headstrong and...
0:35:32:And I adore you, captain.
0:35:42:Now, sit here and don't speak to strangers.|I'll be right back.
0:35:54:- Myra.|- So soon?
0:35:56:No, I haven't seen him yet. I forgot|something very important, indispensable.
0:36:00:- What?|- Your vital statistics.
0:36:01:- Oh, I'm afraid I mislaid them.|- I'll dig them up.
0:36:04:Now, then, I assume|you were born. Where?
0:36:06:- Birmingham.|- When?
0:36:08:Uh, June 9th, 1895.
0:36:10:- Father's profession?|- Schoolmaster.
0:36:12:- Parents living?|- No.
0:36:14:Ah.
0:36:15:Uh, let's see. What else?
0:36:18:Oh, yes. What's your last name?
0:36:20:Oh, Roy. Lester.
0:36:23:It's lucky I thought of that. That's vital.
0:36:25:- Goodbye, Miss Lester.|- Goodbye.
0:36:28:I'll be just a second.
0:36:39:MAN: I suppose it is, as a matter of fact,|if it works out that way.
0:36:42:Then you have to test the thing|before you get to any particular point...
0:36:45:Excuse me, sir.
0:36:47:- Yes, what is it, Cronin?|- May I see you privately, sir?
0:36:50:- I am at lunch.|- It's extremely important, sir.
0:36:53:You held us up last night waiting for you.|Now you interrupt my lunch.
0:36:56:It's all part of the same thing, sir.
0:36:59:(SIGHS)
0:37:01:Very well. Back in a minute.
0:37:07:I'm sorry, but I think you'll understand.|I hope you'll understand.
0:37:10:Do you mind giving me|some sort of a clue?
0:37:13:I'm sorry about not turning up|for your dinner last night...
0:37:16:...but you see, colonel...
0:37:17:Well, whatever it is, I hope you straighten|it out before I get chronic indigestion.
0:37:21:Sit down.
0:37:23:I'd rather stand, if you don't mind, sir.|I'm in a hurry.
0:37:27:The fact is, colonel... The fact...
0:37:30:- The fact...|- What is the fact?
0:37:33:With your permission, sir, if you don't mind,|I'd like to get married this afternoon.
0:37:37:Oh.
0:37:39:And who is the bride-to-be, may I ask?
0:37:41:Her name is Myra Lester.|I have her vital statistics.
0:37:43:Oh.
0:37:45:Sit down.
0:37:49:Have you known her long?
0:37:51:Long enough to be absolutely sure, sir.
0:37:53:- Has she been presented at court?|- I believe not, sir.
0:37:56:But she is eligible|for presentation, I presume?
0:38:00:Cronin, you're leaving|for the front tomorrow.
0:38:03:Are you sure that hasn't a good deal|to do with your haste?
0:38:06:I wanna marry her before I leave...
0:38:08:...so she can stay with my mother|until I get back.
0:38:10:I see.
0:38:12:Well, Cronin, this...
0:38:14:- This is a good deal of responsibility.|- I know, sir.
0:38:17:And a responsibility|that I cannot assume by myseIf.
0:38:23:I wish you'd try, sir.
0:38:25:Sorry, but I'll have to ask you|to get the consent of His Grace...
0:38:28:...the colonel in chief.|- I see.
0:38:30:As he is your relative, he can inquire|more closely into this than I can.
0:38:35:However, if you get his consent,|you have mine.
0:38:37:Thank you, sir.
0:38:38:And I hope your future engagements|will not take place during mealtimes.
0:38:44:I'll try, sir.
0:38:45:- Good luck.|- Thank you, sir.
0:38:54:- Revelstoke House, Belrose Square.|- Yes, sir.
0:39:03:Captain Cronin, Your Grace.
0:39:05:- Ah, my boy, I'm glad to see you.|ROY: Thank you, sir.
0:39:08:- Very glad indeed. How are you?|- Very well, sir.
0:39:11:- When do you go back?|- Day after tomorrow.
0:39:13:For that push at Cambrai, I expect.
0:39:15:- I hope so, sir.|- Sit down.
0:39:17:- Thank you.|- Had a nice leave?
0:39:19:- Wonderful.|- Good, good. You deserve it.
0:39:23:Well, my boy,|is there anything I can do for you?
0:39:26:- Yes, sir.|- What is it?
0:39:30:Well, I'd like your consent, sir,|to my marriage.
0:39:34:Your marriage?
0:39:35:(LAUGHS)
0:39:38:- Well, who's the girl?|- Miss Myra Lester.
0:39:41:Lester. Lester. Surrey?
0:39:44:No, Birmingham.
0:39:47:Birmingham, oh. Lester.
0:39:51:- Do I know them?|- No, but I can remedy that, sir.
0:39:55:- Does your mother know her?|- No, but she will. At least Myra.
0:39:58:- Her parents are dead, sir. She's all alone.|- Dear, dear, dear, dear. Hm.
0:40:02:Well...
0:40:04:...what does she do?|- She's a dancer.
0:40:08:A dancer?
0:40:10:Yes, sir.
0:40:14:She's, uh... She's terribly nice, sir.
0:40:17:A dancer.
0:40:21:You know, Roy...
0:40:24:You know, Roy...
0:40:26:...I like dancers.
0:40:28:Well, thank you, sir.|I mean, I don't blame you.
0:40:31:Naturally. In my time,|you understand, in my time...
0:40:34:Of course, sir.
0:40:35:When I was your age,|I was in love with a dancer.
0:40:38:I wanted to marry her...
0:40:40:...but she wouldn't.
0:40:41:(BOTH LAUGH)
0:40:43:So if she'd accepted me,|she'd have been your aunt.
0:40:46:- That would have been delightful.|- Look here, my boy.
0:40:49:I don't mind telling you|I'm very proud of your war record.
0:40:53:Thank you, sir.
0:40:55:Now, you know what you're doing,|I suppose.
0:40:58:Yes, sir.
0:41:00:You'll be proud of her too, sir. I'm sure.
0:41:03:I don't necessarily believe in|what they call correct marriages.
0:41:07:Seen too many of them turn out badly.
0:41:11:- Well, good luck, my boy. And bless you.|- Thank you, sir.
0:41:14:- I'll never forget this. Neither will she.|- That's all right.
0:41:17:- Bring her to see me on your next leave.|- I shall.
0:41:20:- Fine fellow.|- Thank you again, sir.
0:41:30:(CHUCKLES)
0:41:31:A dancer, eh?
0:41:42:Miss Lester, His Grace has consented|to the marriage of Captain Roy Cronin...
0:41:46:...of the Rendleshire Fusiliers to Myra Lester|of Birmingham, Warwickshire, England.
0:41:50:- No family opposition?|- Not a speck.
0:41:52:Disappointed?
0:41:53:Oh, it's too easy. I'm frightened.
0:41:55:Ha-ha-ha, defeatist.
0:41:57:DRIVER: Where to, sir?|- Uh, to Bond Street.
0:42:00:Yes, sir.
0:42:03:- Bond Street?|- To Bond Street for a ring.
0:42:05:A simple ring.|I don't wanna spoil you straight off.
0:42:08:Then to the florist. You deserve a posy.|Then to St. Matthew's Church.
0:42:11:- St. Matthew's? Really?|- Of course St. Matthew's.
0:42:14:They have the proper tradition.|Swift, regimental marriages.
0:42:17:We walk in comparative strangers,|we walk out comparative friends.
0:42:22:(BOTH LAUGH)
0:42:33:The door beyond leads to the church, sir.|You'll find the vicar at choir practice.
0:42:37:Thank you.
0:42:50:- Well, darling?|- Oh, Roy.
0:42:53:Shall we face it?
0:42:54:It's been so quick.|Are you quite, quite sure?
0:42:59:Myra, I was never so sure|of anything in my life.
0:43:02:In the moment you left me after the air raid,|I knew I must find you again quickly.
0:43:07:I've found you and I'll never let you go.
0:43:10:Does that answer you?
0:43:25:Wait here a moment.
0:43:27:(CHOIR SINGING)
0:44:03:This is Miss Lester.
0:44:04:- How do you do?|- How do you do?
0:44:06:I'm sorry to disappoint you,|Miss Lester...
0:44:09:...but I'm afraid it's impossible|for me to marry you now.
0:44:13:No doubt you forget|that according to the law...
0:44:15:...no marriages can take place after 3:00.
0:44:18:I explained to the vicar, Myra,|that this is an emergency...
0:44:21:...that we thought during wartime,|something could be managed.
0:44:25:Isn't there anything you can do?|We'd be most grateful.
0:44:28:Oh, I'd like to help you,|but unfortunately that is the law.
0:44:32:However, if you'll come|tomorrow morning at 11:00...
0:44:35:...I shall be most happy|to perform the ceremony for you.
0:44:38:But we have so little time.
0:44:41:Well, it's only a few hours.|It just means we'll have to be engaged...
0:44:45:...for a whole day.|VICAR: Yes.
0:44:47:I don't believe in long engagements.|Do you, vicar?
0:44:51:Not when the parties are elderly.
0:44:53:But I think in your case,|it can do no harm.
0:44:56:Then I shall expect you tomorrow at 11?
0:44:59:- We'll be here.|- At 11 precisely, on the stroke of the hour.
0:45:02:I shall be punctual.
0:45:03:- Goodbye. Thank you very much.|- Goodbye, Miss Lester.
0:45:06:- Goodbye, sir.|- Goodbye.
0:45:17:Where is Myra? It's almost 8.|We've got to go to the theater.
0:45:19:- I tell you, I tremble for the poor girl.|- Oh, you're always trembling.
0:45:23:Maybe she went directly to the theater.
0:45:25:That's right.|She's probably waiting for us.
0:45:27:I hope so.
0:45:32:Well, where have you been?|I've been worried to death.
0:45:34:I thought you were with the boyfriend,|but he phoned.
0:45:37:MYRA:|Oh, did he? I wonder why.
0:45:39:He had to go back to the barracks.|I went shopping.
0:45:42:Hey, what's happened to you?|Whose dress is that?
0:45:44:- It's mine.|- Yours?
0:45:45:Yes. I spent my last penny on it.
0:45:47:- Are you crazy?|- Yes, quite, quite.
0:45:49:And I bought a hat, a lovely hat.|And shoes and a bag and then gloves and...
0:45:53:Oh, isn't it a dream, Kitty? It's...
0:45:55:It's my wedding dress.
0:45:59:What?
0:46:01:- Oh, Myra, you don't mean that?|- Yes. I'm going to be married.
0:46:04:Oh, darling, come here|and let me hug you.
0:46:07:- It's wonderful.|- When? When? How?
0:46:10:Tomorrow morning at St. Matthew's|Church. Oh, Kitty, I'm so madly happy.
0:46:13:Oh, darling, I can't believe it.
0:46:16:Neither can I.
0:46:19:It's silly. I'm crying.
0:46:21:I've been crying all day.
0:46:23:Oh, it's unbelievable.|Things like this just don't happen.
0:46:26:It's so wonderful.
0:46:29:Oh, what a joke on madame.
0:46:30:WOMAN:|Kitty, are you coming?
0:46:32:Yes, all right. Wait a second. Uh,|you're coming to the theater, aren't you?
0:46:35:- I wouldn't let madame down for anything.|- Then we'd better hurry. Come on.
0:46:42:Oh, girls. Girls. Hey, Lydia. Girls.
0:46:45:Girls, what do you think?|Myra's going to be married.
0:46:48:ALL:|Married?
0:46:49:(EXCITED CHATTERING)
0:46:51:May I tell them? You don't mind?
0:46:53:Darling, you seem to have done it.
0:46:55:WOMAN 1:|Tell us about him.
0:46:57:- When will it be?|- Tomorrow morning.
0:46:59:WOMAN 2: What's his name?|- Roy Cronin.
0:47:01:Well, Mrs. Cronin, I declare.
0:47:02:- Maybe it'll break out with the rest of us.|- Like the flu.
0:47:05:I'm so happy for you, Myra.
0:47:07:Oh, Vi, you are a darling.|You're all so sweet.
0:47:10:I feel like crying too.
0:47:12:But we haven't got time. Come on, girls.|We're late for the theater. Come on, girls.
0:47:17:Miss Myra,|you're wanted on the telephone.
0:47:20:Thank you.
0:47:23:Hello. Yes.
0:47:27:What?
0:47:29:Oh, no. When?
0:47:33:Oh, that's terrible.
0:47:34:Can't they give you one more day?
0:47:39:You have to...?
0:47:41:Oh, of course, I'll come at once.
0:47:45:I love you.
0:47:54:KITTY: What is it?|- The orders have been changed.
0:47:56:He's going tonight.
0:47:57:The train leaves in 25 minutes.|I'm going to see him off.
0:48:00:- Going where?|- To Waterloo Station.
0:48:02:You can't.|You won't be back for the show.
0:48:04:- Madame will...|- Sorry.
0:48:06:Myra, please. She'd never forgive you,|never. Don't do it, Myra.
0:48:10:I may never see him again.

0:50:33:- Myra, darling.|- Did he leave?
0:50:36:Did you talk to him?
0:50:38:- Didn't you see him at all?|- Just caught a glimpse of him.
0:50:41:Oh, what a shame.
0:50:44:I couldn't get a taxi|and they told me the wrong platform.
0:50:47:Oh, he'll be back.
0:50:48:It'll be all right, Myra.|The war can't last forever.
0:50:51:(DOOR OPENS)
0:51:01:Good evening, Myra.
0:51:03:It's very condescending of you|to come here at all.
0:51:07:She's very unhappy, madame.|Her fiancé was called to the front.
0:51:11:I'm not interest in troop movements.
0:51:13:- She was to be married in the morning.|- Nor in social events.
0:51:16:Well, the whole world doesn't|begin and end with a ballet.
0:51:19:My world does.
0:51:21:And while you are with me,|so must yours.
0:51:25:That prescription|no longer applies to Myra.
0:51:28:Oh, don't sack her, madame.
0:51:30:I warned you. You are dismissed.
0:51:34:- I never heard of such unreasonable...|- Be careful, Kitty.
0:51:37:- No, I won't.|- Oh, Kitty.
0:51:38:I'm fed up with her. I've been wanting to|tell her for years. Now I'm going to tell you.
0:51:42:And if you don't like it, you can lump it.|I'm sick of you and your tyranny.
0:51:46:You treat us like a lot of slaves|and call it discipline.
0:51:49:It isn't that.|It's just that you enjoy bullying us.
0:51:53:- Lydia.|- Yes, madame?
0:51:55:Rehearsal tomorrow at 11.
0:51:59:With two understudies.
0:52:02:Good night.
0:52:09:Well, no more ballet for me.
0:52:11:I'm sick of being highbrow with my feet.
0:52:14:You and I, ducky,|are going to get into a revue.
0:52:18:All we've got to do is|to get some manager to put one on.
0:52:21:That ought to be simple.
0:52:23:- Kitty.|- Yes?
0:52:25:- Do you think?|- Occasionally. What?
0:52:28:Do you think he'll write?
0:52:30:(LAUGHS)
0:52:44:Hello. I'm back and I didn't get the job.
0:52:47:Oh, Kitty, you startled me.
0:52:49:KITTY:|Did I? Sorry.
0:52:51:Well, now that I'm all settled,|how about you?
0:52:54:Oh, no luck.
0:52:55:There's nothing there.|It's no use looking.
0:52:58:Well, I had two letters last week.
0:53:00:- I didn't really expect any.|- Uh-huh.
0:53:02:- How about the dress shop?|- Experience needed.
0:53:05:- The tearoom?|- Filled.
0:53:08:Naturally.
0:53:09:But they put me on the waiting list.
0:53:11:That's a comfort, isn't it?
0:53:14:Well, Myra, we're a couple|of howling successes.
0:53:17:- Sitting on top of the world, aren't we?|- You're in a nice mood, aren't you?
0:53:21:No wonder, sitting in the dark,|feeling sorry for yourseIf.
0:53:24:If I don't feel sorry for myseIf, who will?
0:53:26:Trouble with you is, you're hungry.|Give me your hand.
0:53:29:You'll feel better|when you've had something to eat.
0:53:34:Myra.
0:53:36:Yes, Kitty?
0:53:38:You're probably sick of hearing this but,|honestly, why don't you let Roy know?
0:53:43:- That we're out of work?|- That we're broke.
0:53:45:Flat broke. Down to our last tin.
0:53:49:Oh, he'd worry.
0:53:50:Well, better for him to worry|than for us to starve.
0:53:53:Kitty, we're not starving.|Nobody starves.
0:53:55:You mean, people who starve|don't live to tell about it.
0:53:58:I don't know what we're going to do.
0:54:01:We can't get jobs in a show,|we can't get them anywhere else.
0:54:05:If madame were still here,|I'd go to her, pride or no pride...
0:54:08:...but as it is, there's nobody.
0:54:12:Myra...
0:54:14:...I'm frightened.
0:54:17:I've never been frightened before.
0:54:20:I don't like it.
0:54:25:Oh, Kitty.
0:54:27:Perhaps it's seIfish of me|not to let Roy know...
0:54:30:...but I've got a stupid sort of pride|about it.
0:54:33:Let me wait a little while.|Just a little while longer.
0:54:36:Something must turn up,|and if it doesn't, well...
0:54:39:(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
0:54:40:It's Mrs. Bassett for the rent.
0:54:42:- Remember, you're rehearsing.|- Oh, yes, that's right.
0:54:50:- Miss Lester?|- I'm Miss Lester.
0:54:53:For you, Miss Lester.
0:54:54:- Thank you.|- Quite all right, miss.
0:54:58:Kitty. Flowers.
0:55:00:- I can't imagine.|- Here, let's see. Put them down here.
0:55:05:Oh, gosh.
0:55:08:Oh, aren't they lovely?|Who do you suppose?
0:55:11:Kitty, it's Roy. It's his handwriting.
0:55:15:Sixteen, 18, 24... Oh.
0:55:19:They must have cost a pound at least.
0:55:21:Oh, enough to buy us food|for a whole week.
0:55:24:"One of my men got leave.|You'll be receiving these through him.
0:55:27:With them I send you all my..."
0:55:29:We, uh... We could sell them to the florist|at the corner and buy ourselves a real meal.
0:55:34:But I don't think you'd favor the idea.
0:55:40:No.
0:55:41:Oh, Kitty. His mother's coming here.
0:55:44:To London?
0:55:45:Yes, listen.|"My mother is snatching a few days...
0:55:48:...from her Red Cross work|and is coming to town to see you.
0:55:51:I know you'll get on well with her.|She's very nice.
0:55:53:In fact, she's quite like me." Ha.
0:55:55:Oh, Kitty, what'll I do?|I can't have her here.
0:55:58:Why not? Let's give her a little party|and open up the last tin.
0:56:02:I'll suggest meeting her somewhere.|For tea, perhaps.
0:56:05:Oh, but, Kitty, imagine. His mother.
0:56:08:I'm awfully nervous at meeting her.|I wonder...
0:56:11:What, you funny love-struck infant?
0:56:14:I wonder if she'll like me.
0:56:16:Well, she better,|or we won't invite her at all.
0:56:20:- Myra, you're trembling.|- Kitty, don't you see...
0:56:22:...that meeting her|would be like seeing Roy again.
0:56:25:You've been such a darling to me.
0:56:27:And now perhaps|I'll be able to repay you.
0:56:30:You know...
0:56:31:...I have a feeling that from now on...
0:56:33:...everything's going to|take a turn for the better.
0:56:36:I'm sure it is.
0:56:42:- One?|- No, there'll be another one later.
0:56:45:- Is there a table by the window?|- I think so.
0:57:01:Oh, no, thank you. I'll wait for my friend.
0:57:03:She's Lady Margaret Cronin|and I'm Miss Lester.
0:57:06:If she should ask for me,|direct her to me here.
0:57:09:Certainly.
0:57:34:What time is it, please?
0:57:36:- It's 10 minutes to 5, miss.|- Thank you.
0:57:38:- Your friend seems to be held up.|- Yes.
0:57:41:Sure you wouldn't like a cup of tea?
0:57:43:No, thank you.|I'm sure she'll be here any minute.
0:57:45:- Care to look at the evening paper?|- Oh, thank you.
0:59:15:Feeling better, miss?
0:59:18:Here, take another sip.
0:59:24:Feel faint, don't you?
0:59:27:You did give us a fright.|Wouldn't you like to go to the restroom...
0:59:30:...and lie down a bit?|- No, l...
0:59:33:I'd rather stay here, if you don't mind.
0:59:36:Better take another drop of this, then.
0:59:43:Better?
0:59:45:Sure?
0:59:46:Yes, I'll be all right.
0:59:49:Sit quiet and rest.
0:59:51:And if your friend doesn't turn up,|we'll call a taxi.
1:00:26:Are you Miss Lester?
1:00:28:Yes.
1:00:30:I'm Margaret Cronin, Roy's mother.
1:00:33:I'm afraid I've kept you waiting.|Oh, I'm terribly sorry.
1:00:36:My train was haIf an hour late.|You know how it is these days.
1:00:39:But I've come straight from Scotland|to keep this appointment...
1:00:42:...so I do hope you'll forgive me.
1:00:45:What shall we have? Tea? Little cakes?
1:00:48:No. No, thank you. I don't think so.
1:00:50:I can't stay very long.
1:00:54:Oh.
1:00:55:Tea for one, then. And some thin toast.
1:00:59:I do hope you're not going|to run off at once.
1:01:02:I've wanted so much to meet you,|but I've been so terribly busy.
1:01:05:I've been turning an old country place|into a rest home for wounded men.
1:01:09:By the way, I telephoned you|from Scotland to the hotel...
1:01:12:...where Roy told me you were staying.|They said you'd gone.
1:01:15:I tried to get in touch|with you through the ballet...
1:01:18:...but they said it had gone to America.|I was about to wire Roy...
1:01:21:...when your note came.|- I have my mail forwarded. There...
1:01:24:There are reasons.
1:01:26:Oh, my dear, I didn't mean to pry.
1:01:31:Forgive me, my dear,|but you're not afraid of me, are you?
1:01:34:I know it is a bit of an ordeal|meeting one's future in-laws.
1:01:38:I remember how I dreaded it.
1:01:40:But I'm not very terrifying, am I?
1:01:43:I know we're going to be good friends.
1:01:46:I feel that I know you already|through Roy's letters.
1:01:49:I want to write him...
1:01:50:...and tell him that you and I have met|and that we like each other very much.
1:01:54:- May I write him that?|- Yes, yes, of course.
1:02:00:I suppose there are things you want|to know about Roy I could tell you.
1:02:04:There are things about him|you could tell me.
1:02:06:Why don't they bring your tea?|They're very slow. Shall I call the waitress?
1:02:10:Don't bother. I'm in no hurry.
1:02:13:Would you rather that I didn't speak|to you about Roy?
1:02:17:No.
1:02:18:No. Why should you think that?|But what is there to say?
1:02:25:Forgive me, my dear,|but are you quite well?
1:02:28:Yes, yes, of course.|I had a drink, that's all.
1:02:31:It made me feel funny.
1:02:33:Queer.
1:02:36:What's it like in Scotland?|I have never been there.
1:02:39:It always sounds so quaint,|you know, the heather and the peat.
1:02:43:(LAUGHS)
1:02:44:Peat comes from Ireland, doesn't it?
1:02:47:I've never been there either.
1:02:50:Why do you stare at me like that?
1:02:54:I'm trying to see you as Roy sees you.
1:02:57:Myra, I want you to remember|that I tried to be your friend.
1:03:01:I've come because Roy wanted me|to come and because I wished to.
1:03:07:Perhaps we'll try again someday.
1:03:10:Perhaps on Roy's next leave,|he'll bring you to the country.
1:03:16:Goodbye, Myra.
1:03:25:The lady is leaving, miss?
1:04:27:Myra?
1:04:32:Myra.
1:04:44:WOMAN: Who is it?|- Has Miss Lester gone out, Mrs. Clarke?
1:04:47:- What...? What is it?|- Where's Miss Lester?
1:04:50:How should I know? She went out.
1:04:51:- When?|- About an hour ago.
1:04:53:You shouldn't have let her.
1:04:55:She's not well enough to go out,|and a night like this too.
1:04:58:This is a lodging house, Miss Meredith,|not a nursing home.
1:05:08:Myra, where have you been?
1:05:09:Whatever made you go out|on a night like this?
1:05:12:You went and got caught in the rain too.
1:05:14:Now, you come on upstairs|and get into bed.
1:05:17:We spend months trying to build you up|and you go and do a silly thing like this.
1:05:21:I can't trust you out of my sight.
1:05:27:Now, you get those things off.
1:05:29:Double-quick time too.
1:05:31:I'll fix you a hot-water bottle.
1:05:35:- Kitty.|- Yes?
1:05:38:How did the show go tonight?
1:05:39:Oh, same as usual.
1:05:42:Was it a good house?
1:05:44:So-so.
1:05:47:Why?
1:05:49:I went to the theater.
1:05:51:I thought I'd surprise you|by calling for you.
1:05:54:Oh, yes...
1:05:55:(SIGHS)
1:05:57:See, Myra, I didn't want to worry you.
1:05:59:I'm in a different sort of a show|than the one I said I was in.
1:06:02:A cheaper sort of a show, so it's...
1:06:04:Kitty, you haven't got a job at all.|You never did have one.
1:06:10:How have we been living?
1:06:11:What difference does it make|as long as we live?
1:06:15:Where's the money coming from?|Where are you getting it?
1:06:19:Where do you think I've been getting it?
1:06:28:I tried to keep it from you but...
1:06:31:Well, you know now.
1:06:40:You did it for me.
1:06:42:No, I didn't.
1:06:44:I'd have done it anyhow.
1:06:45:(SPEAKING IN FRENCH)
1:06:47:No jobs.
1:06:49:No boys who want to marry you.
1:06:52:Only men who wanna kill a few hours|because they know it may be their last.
1:06:57:Kitty, you did it for me|to buy me food and medicine.
1:07:01:I'd sooner have died.
1:07:05:No, no, you wouldn't.
1:07:07:You think you would, but you wouldn't.
1:07:09:I thought of that...
1:07:12:...but I wasn't brave enough.
1:07:14:I wanted to go on living.
1:07:16:Heaven knows why, but I did,|and so would you.
1:07:19:We're young and it's good to live.
1:07:22:Even the life I'm leading.|Though, God knows it...
1:07:28:I've heard them call it the easiest way.
1:07:33:I wonder who ever thought up|that little phrase.
1:07:37:I know one thing.
1:07:39:It couldn't have been a woman.
1:07:45:I suppose you think...
1:07:47:...I'm dirt.
1:07:49:Oh, Kitty.
1:07:54:(SOBBING)
1:08:25:MAN:|Hello.
1:08:32:A bit of weather we had this evening,|didn't we?
1:08:37:It's cleared up though, nicely after all.
1:08:46:How about a little stroll?
1:09:35:How's luck?
1:09:37:No such thing.
1:09:39:- How's Kitty?|- Oh, about the same as me.
1:09:41:Ah, nowadays, there don't seem to be|no luck for nobody.
1:09:45:Oh, well.
1:09:47:Better days coming, so the song says.
1:09:49:- I hope so. Toodle-oo.|- Bye-bye.
1:10:04:Hello, Myra. How's luck?
1:10:07:I'm not exactly prepared to retire yet.
1:10:09:Well, here they come.
1:10:14:- Cheerio.|- Cheerio.
1:10:48:- Welcome home.|- Thanks, ducky.
1:11:23:ROY:|Myra!
1:11:25:Myra!
1:11:28:Myra.
1:11:31:Myra, I can't believe it.
1:11:33:It is you, isn't it?
1:11:35:- It's really you.|- Oh, Roy.
1:11:38:It's really you.
1:11:40:Oh, darling, let me look at you.
1:11:43:I'm not dreaming, am I?
1:11:44:But think of finding you here,|waiting for me. Why, it's a miracle.
1:11:48:Roy, you... You're alive.
1:11:52:The months I've waited for this moment.|I'd begun to think it would never come.
1:11:57:How'd you know I was coming?|Did you telephone Mother?
1:12:00:Oh, now, darling, none of that.|Chin up. Where's your nerve?
1:12:07:It's over, darling. It's all over.|And we're together for always.
1:12:10:Oh, Roy. You're alive.
1:12:12:Yes, extravagantly.
1:12:14:(SOBS)
1:12:15:Oh, my poor darling.
1:12:20:Come on. We'll go sit down.
1:12:22:Oh, darling, don't cry.|It's a happy ending.
1:12:26:Have you missed me?
1:12:29:Did you think I was...?
1:12:32:Didn't you know I was indestructible?
1:12:34:How could I die when we're engaged?|Did you think I'd break our engagement?
1:12:37:Oh, you don't know me, young woman.
1:12:39:No, I was wounded and somehow|lost my identification disk.
1:12:42:It's a long story. I'll tell you someday.
1:12:44:I was in a German prison camp for a year.
1:12:46:Head wound. Pretty nearly signed off, but|I got out at last and went to Switzerland.
1:12:51:Mother came over, of course,|mines or no mines.
1:12:54:And then I heard that|she'd lost touch with you.
1:12:56:I almost lost my mind.|What happened? Did she find you?
1:12:59:- Did you get in touch with her?|- No.
1:13:02:- Then you didn't know I was coming?|- No.
1:13:07:What were you doing at the station?|Were you looking for a friend?
1:13:11:Yes.
1:13:12:Well, I'm the friend you were looking for.
1:13:16:Who was he? I insist upon knowing.|Who was he?
1:13:19:Oh, it was a girl. No one in particular.
1:13:21:(ROY LAUGHS)
1:13:23:It's a miracle|that I ran into you like this...
1:13:25:...when you were waiting|for no one in particular.
1:13:29:Here we are, good strong tea.|This will buck you up.
1:13:33:Come on, drink this.|I want to talk to you.
1:13:36:I've got a thousand questions.|What have you been up to?
1:13:40:You got a job? Where is it?|What does it pay?
1:13:42:Not that it really matters because|you're quitting it. This instant.
1:13:46:I'm not going to let you out of my sight...
1:13:48:...not till we're married.|You understand that?
1:13:54:You've been through a lot, haven't you?
1:13:56:It has been...
1:13:58:- It's been...|- Pretty tough, eh?
1:14:02:And I wasn't there to help you.
1:14:13:But that's all over now.
1:14:15:I'm going to make it up to you.|I'm going to make things easy for you.
1:14:18:I never want to see you cry again...
1:14:21:...except with happiness.
1:14:23:If only I'd known you were alive,|that you were in the world.
1:14:28:I'll never leave you again, darling. Never.
1:14:32:Now, Miss Lester, I have a program.
1:14:34:I'm a man with a program,|a man of action.
1:14:36:I'm phoning my mother that I found you|and we're coming up on the evening train.
1:14:40:Excuse me while I find a phone.|Don't you move until I come back to you.
1:15:36:- We'll be up on the nine-six.|- I must speak to you.
1:15:39:- There's something I must say.|- Will you?
1:15:41:Ha, ha, that'll be marvelous.
1:15:42:Thanks, Mother. Goodbye.
1:15:46:- Well, that's that.|- Roy, you must listen to me.
1:15:49:Myra, what is it?
1:15:52:I can't go to the country with you.|It's quite out of the question.
1:15:56:- Why not?|- Please don't ask me, but I simply can't.
1:15:59:But I've got to ask|and you've got to tell me.
1:16:04:Oh, I look terrible, for one thing.|I haven't any clothes and l...
1:16:08:- Well, I really can't go anywhere.|- Ha, ha. Oh, you little fool.
1:16:12:Let me have a squint at you.|I think you exaggerate.
1:16:16:Now that I look at you,|there's something in what you say.
1:16:19:Well, Madame Cronin-to-be,|we'll see what we can do.
1:16:21:How would you like to be|the smartest woman in London?
1:16:24:No, Roy, I can't.
1:16:37:Myra, darling.
1:16:40:I'm afraid I've been stupid.|Conceited and stupid.
1:16:45:Because you've never been|out of my thoughts...
1:16:47:...I took it for granted|that it was the same with you.
1:16:52:There's someone else, isn't there, Myra?
1:16:55:After all, you thought me dead.
1:16:59:There is someone else, isn't there?|Don't be afraid. Tell me.
1:17:02:Oh, Roy, of course|there isn't anyone else.
1:17:05:There couldn't be.
1:17:07:I loved you.
1:17:09:I've never loved anyone else.
1:17:12:I never shall.
1:17:14:That's the truth, Roy.
1:17:19:That's all I wanted to know.
1:17:24:Oh, darling, smile for a change.
1:17:27:Have you forgotten how?
1:17:30:That's a good girl.
1:17:33:I can't believe I'm with you again.
1:17:35:But you are.
1:17:37:- Happy?|- Yes.
1:17:39:Personally, I'm delirious.
1:17:42:Come on, we're going shopping.
1:17:49:KITTY:|Myra.
1:17:53:Well, what's all this?|Have you taken to shoplifting?
1:17:55:Oh, Kitty, darling. Roy's alive.|He's back. He's here.
1:18:01:- Roy?|- Mm-hm.
1:18:04:- No.|- Yes, he's back.
1:18:05:We've been together the whole afternoon.|He'll be here any minute.
1:18:09:Kitty...
1:18:10:...he wants to marry me.
1:18:14:- Oh, no. Such things don't happen.|- It's true.
1:18:18:Oh, Kitty, it's going to be so wonderful,|for you too.
1:18:21:Nothing will be too good for you|when I'm Roy's wife.
1:18:26:Oh, I know what you're thinking.
1:18:29:I've been thinking too.
1:18:32:You think that'd be|dreadful of me, don't you?
1:18:34:- Does he know?|- No.
1:18:37:Do you think you can get away with it?
1:18:40:- You mean deceiving him?|- Yes.
1:18:43:Oh, I'm going to tell him.
1:18:46:There are two sorts of people, Myra.
1:18:49:Those who get the breaks|and those who don't.
1:18:51:Well, I'm getting the breaks now,|and I'm not going to sink.
1:18:54:You remember you once said|that you wanted to live?
1:18:57:Well, I want to live.
1:18:58:This is my chance for life|and I won't let him go.
1:19:02:He's so kind, Kitty,|so sweet and clean and wonderful.
1:19:07:I'll devote myseIf to him.
1:19:10:After all, it's his happiness too,|Kitty. He...
1:19:13:He loves me. He's waited for me.
1:19:16:And in my soul, I've waited for him.
1:19:21:Tell me I can go to him. Please, Kitty.
1:19:34:(SIGHS)
1:19:36:Guess there are no rules, Myra...
1:19:38:...for what you feel...
1:19:40:...and what he feels.
1:19:42:Kitty.
1:19:44:After all, if he's...
1:19:45:...mad enough about you,|it may make up for everything.
1:19:48:It must. It must.
1:19:51:Well, try it.
1:19:53:Go to him.
1:19:56:Oh, Kitty.
1:20:17:The ancestral acres. Shall I|point out the things we're proudest of...
1:20:21:...no matter how boring?|- Oh, it's beautiful. Simply beautiful.
1:20:25:Mother will take you all over.
1:20:26:You mustn't tell her I showed you.|See it first with her.
1:20:29:- Be enthusiastic too.|- That won't be difficult.
1:20:43:It must be wonderful to spend|one's childhood in a place like this.
1:20:46:Yes, it's great when you're young.
1:20:49:- When you're really young.|- Oh, Roy.
1:20:52:Do you think of yourseIf as old?
1:20:55:No one who's been in this war is young.
1:20:57:No, that's true.
1:20:59:Remember Longfellow's line?
1:21:01:
" The thoughts of youth|
are long, long thoughts. "
1:21:07:- Myra.|- Yes, Roy?
1:21:10:We're awfully good together,|don't you think?
1:21:15:R.S.V.P. I mean, that was a question.|It requires an answer. Yes or no?
1:21:21:Yes.
1:21:22:Your answer is correct.
1:21:39:Our home, darling.
1:21:48:- Mother.|- Oh!
1:21:54:Myra, I'm so glad to see you again,|my dear.
1:21:57:Isn't it wonderful,|Roy finding you so quickly?
1:22:00:- I believe there's providence in it.|ROY: I'm sure of it.
1:22:02:You're very kind, Lady Margaret.
1:22:04:Roy, I do hope you|haven't shown Myra anything.
1:22:07:I want to show her round myseIf.
1:22:09:- I didn't show her a thing.|MARGARET: Good.
1:22:12:Come. Oh, I'm so happy.
1:22:16:- Hello, Barnes.|- Oh, Mr. Roy, do excuse me.
1:22:19:I've been waiting all afternoon|for the dogcart, and then I missed it.
1:22:23:Just at the crucial moment,|as you might say.
1:22:25:I missed my welcoming committee.|Wanted to impress Miss Lester.
1:22:29:However, this is my future wife, Barnes.
1:22:31:Myra, this is Barnes.
1:22:32:- How do you do?|- How do you do?
1:22:34:Brought me up from a baby.
1:22:36:- Tell you all about it in detail.|- I'd love to hear about it.
1:22:39:Well, he gave us an awful lot of trouble,|Miss Lester.
1:22:42:He wasn't what you would call|a good child...
1:22:45:...but you couldn't resist him.
1:22:46:One day he jumped from a treetop.
1:22:48:ROY: I've told her about that, Barnes.|You fish up something new.
1:22:51:- Yes, sir.|ROY: Come, Mother.
1:22:53:- What about showing Myra to her room?|- Oh, Roy, I forgot.
1:22:56:- I'm afraid we're going to be invaded.|- Invaded?
1:22:59:The neighbors.|I did my best to spare you...
1:23:01:...but the whole countryside is coming in|tonight to see you and your bride.
1:23:05:Ha, ha, oh, poor Myra.|She's going to see some wonderful types.
1:23:08:(ALL LAUGH)
1:23:11:(BAND PLAYING WALTZ)
1:23:30:They do look well together, don't they?
1:23:32:She's a lovely girl. Perfectly lovely.
1:23:35:I suppose very soon...
1:23:37:...these two young people|will be paying me a professional visit.
1:23:40:Tomorrow morning, I expect.|Roy's madly in love.
1:23:44:- Jealous?|- A little.
1:23:46:- But you like her, don't you?|- Very much.
1:23:50:More every minute.
1:24:04:She dances beautifully, doesn't she?
1:24:07:Well, that's her job.
1:24:09:Those Cronin men, they're always attracted|by girls who undress in public.
1:24:14:Why don't you try it, Viola?
1:24:15:Oh, I haven't the nerve.
1:24:18:I'm not quite sure that I've got the figure.
1:24:20:(GIRLS LAUGH)
1:24:30:All I can say is,|there are plenty of charming girls...
1:24:33:...of good family in the county|who would have jumped at Roy...
1:24:36:...and I don't mean my niece, Victoria.
1:24:38:I wonder if she can ride.
1:24:40:Who's ever heard of her?|Has anyone ever seen her dance?
1:24:44:Well, evidently, Roy's seen her|and evidently liked it.
1:24:48:You'll notice the duke isn't here.
1:24:50:Evidently, the duke doesn't like it.
1:25:22:- Happy?|- Yes.
1:25:24:- Completely?|- Yes.
1:25:26:- Ecstatically?|- Yes.
1:25:28:- No doubts?|- No.
1:25:29:- No reservations?|- No.
1:25:31:- No defeatism?|- No.
1:25:36:Darling, every once in a while,|I see fear in your eyes.
1:25:39:Why?
1:25:42:Oh, life's been hard for you, I know that.
1:25:45:You've had to struggle and endure|privation, but that's all over now.
1:25:50:You're safe now.
1:25:52:Don't be afraid.
1:25:54:You needn't be ever again.
1:25:57:I love you.
1:25:59:Oh, Roy, you're so good. You're so...
1:26:06:Oh, darling, it's...
1:26:08:- It's unreal, isn't it?|- Yes.
1:26:10:Shall we wake up suddenly|and find it untrue?
1:26:13:Roy, don't be defeatist.
1:26:15:(ROY CHUCKLES)
1:26:18:Rather like running the gauntlet,|wasn't it, to dance in there?
1:26:21:But you're a great success, darling.
1:26:23:- Everyone's enchanted with you.|- But they haven't met me yet.
1:26:27:- You warm?|- Yes, very.
1:26:29:- Would you like a drink?|- I'd love one.
1:26:31:I'll get you some of Barnes' famous punch.|Cool and innocent and deceptive.
1:26:35:You sit right here.|Don't move an eyelid till I come back.
1:26:38:MYRA: I shall run off|with the first strolling minstrel.
1:26:41:- Darling.|- Darling.
1:27:01:COLONEL: Of course I'm here.|I've come to see that young woman.
1:27:03:Where is she? Where are you hiding her?
1:27:08:This is Myra.
1:27:09:Myra, this is my uncle, the source|of those bellows you just heard.
1:27:12:How do you do?
1:27:14:So this is Myra, is it?
1:27:16:I am very glad you came.
1:27:18:- Why have you kept us apart?|- Ha, ha.
1:27:20:Now my troubles begin.
1:27:23:Roy, you told me you were going|to get Myra some punch.
1:27:26:What about it?
1:27:28:I knew it was too good to last. Darling.
1:27:31:Come, my dear. Let's sit down.
1:27:35:You gave me 10 of the|most anxious moments of my life.
1:27:38:Did I? When?
1:27:40:When I was waiting in a cab|while Roy was inside...
1:27:42:...asking your permission to marry me.
1:27:44:Were you outside in the cab?
1:27:46:Why didn't he bring you in?
1:27:48:I don't suppose he dared.
1:27:50:Quite right. Very shrewd of him.
1:27:53:If he had,|I'd never have given my consent.
1:27:56:- I should have asked for you myseIf.|- Ha, ha.
1:27:59:- And I'd have said yes.|- Ha-ha-ha.
1:28:02:My dear...
1:28:03:...will you do me a favor?|- Oh, I love to.
1:28:06:Will you do me the honor|to dance with me?
1:28:10:Of course, but I'm afraid Roy|will think we've eloped.
1:28:13:- Well, maybe we will.|- All right.
1:28:15:Come along. I haven't been here for ages.
1:28:18:Come on, my dear.|Let's make an entrance.
1:28:22:(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)
1:28:39:You dance beautifully, my dear.
1:28:42:And why not, indeed?
1:28:43:- So do you.|- I? Oh, no.
1:28:48:COLONEL:|Oh, dear. Oh, dear. Oh, dear. Ah!
1:28:51:Well, that dance|is the climax of my career.
1:28:55:I can now retire permanently|and write my memoirs.
1:28:59:You're awfully kind.|I shall always be grateful to you.
1:29:02:Grateful? What are you talking about?
1:29:04:Think I don't know why you came here|and made a point of dancing with me...
1:29:07:...in front of all those people?|- Point? Point? What point?
1:29:10:You wanted to show them|that you approved of me.
1:29:13:You knew if you approved, they would.
1:29:15:- Incidentally, I jolly well liked it.|- Ha, ha.
1:29:18:You're awfully nice.
1:29:20:I do so want them to like me.
1:29:22:I want to be a success because of Roy.
1:29:25:Well, you know what these people are.
1:29:27:They're good people, mind you.|Kind people.
1:29:30:But they're old-fashioned|and rather limited in their social ideas.
1:29:35:"What's good enough for AIfred the Great|is good enough for me" sort of thing.
1:29:38:(BOTH LAUGH)
1:29:40:- You see that emblem?|- Mm-hm.
1:29:43:COLONEL:|Broken lance. Our regimental badge.
1:29:46:Roy's regiment too.
1:29:47:Well, they think the only way to keep up|the tradition is to lead a dull life...
1:29:51:...and marry one of themselves.
1:29:53:They think of a dancer|as someone a little racy, shall I say...
1:29:57:...to put it mildly. Ha-ha-ha!
1:29:59:Too bad you can't live up|to their idea, Myra, isn't it? Ha.
1:30:03:It would be good fun, wouldn't it? Hm.
1:30:05:Yes, it would.
1:30:08:But Roy's instinct tells him what you are.
1:30:11:My instinct tells me too.
1:30:14:You're sound and good.
1:30:17:That badge is never going to suffer|at your hands.
1:30:20:If I weren't sure of that...
1:30:23:...I wouldn't welcome you as I do now.
1:30:26:ROY:|Myra.
1:30:29:Uncle, I've been more than generous,|leaving you so long with Myra.
1:30:32:- Longer would be foolhardy.|- Yes. You'd better take her away...
1:30:35:...before she discovers|that I'm the better man.
1:30:37:(BOTH CHUCKLE)
1:30:39:(BAND PLAYING "AULD LANG SYNE")
1:30:44:Listen, Myra.
1:30:46:I had them play it. Let's dance to it.
1:30:49:Will you excuse us, sir?
1:30:52:- Thank you.|- For what? For what?
1:30:54:Go and enjoy yourselves.
1:31:07:Remember, darling, the Candlelight Club?
1:31:10:It's forever ago, isn't it?|And yet it's tonight.
1:32:06:(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
1:32:17:Come in.
1:32:20:Do I disturb you?
1:32:22:Uh, no. Please come in, Lady Margaret.
1:32:25:I knocked very gently, so in case|you were asleep, I shouldn't wake you.
1:32:30:MYRA: Won't you sit down?|- I thought you'd be awake.
1:32:32:I said, "She's far too happy and excited|to be asleep."
1:32:35:Two things keep one up,|great happiness or great misery.
1:32:39:- Don't you think so?|- Yes.
1:32:41:I couldn't go to sleep either|without getting something off my chest...
1:32:44:...as the Americans say.|Are you sure you're not too tired?
1:32:47:No, no, of course not.
1:32:49:It's about our last meeting in London.
1:32:51:That has preyed upon my mind|ever since.
1:32:54:Do you bear a grudge against me|for that, Myra?
1:32:57:Oh, no, Lady Margaret.
1:32:58:I came with a prejudice...
1:33:01:...and when I saw you,|you seemed strange to me.
1:33:04:I thought you couldn't be,|well, what I wanted Roy's wife to be.
1:33:11:I've no excuse, except a mother's excuse|for wanting an impossible ideal for her son.
1:33:16:Can you forgive me?
1:33:18:- But there's nothing to forgive.|- When I got home the next day...
1:33:21:...I found the telegram telling me|the dreadful news about Roy.
1:33:25:And when I could think again, it suddenly|struck me that you had known all the time.
1:33:29:That you'd just seen his name|in the paper...
1:33:31:...and that you hardly knew|what you were saying.
1:33:35:- Is that true?|- Yes.
1:33:38:Oh, you poor child. If I'd only known.
1:33:47:I did my very best to find you,|but you'd disappeared.
1:33:51:And now I want to make it up to you|in the future.
1:33:58:I'm very happy|about this marriage, Myra...
1:34:02:...and I know we're going|to be wonderful friends.
1:34:06:Forgive me for being sentimental.
1:34:10:Good night, my daughter.
1:34:33:Lady Margaret!
1:34:38:Lady Margaret.
1:34:44:- Lady Margaret.|- Yes, Myra?
1:34:47:I must speak to you.
1:34:49:Why, of course, Myra.
1:34:53:I can't marry Roy.
1:35:06:Sit down quietly, dear, and tell me.
1:35:09:I must go away.
1:35:10:I should never have come here.
1:35:12:I knew it was impossible...
1:35:14:...but I kept deceiving myseIf.
1:35:18:I've got to go away.
1:35:20:I must never see him again.
1:35:23:My dear, why don't you tell me|what it is?
1:35:25:- I'm sure I can help you.|- No one can help me.
1:35:29:But, my dear,|what can it be that is so terrible?
1:35:34:Has there been someone else?
1:35:39:Oh, Lady Margaret.
1:35:42:You are naive.
1:35:45:- Myra.|- Yes.
1:35:47:- Yes, yes.|- Myra.
1:35:49:That thought|which is now in your mind...
1:35:51:...which you are telling yourseIf|can't be true is true.
1:35:55:- Myra.|- Yes.
1:35:58:Why didn't you tell him?
1:36:01:I didn't have the courage.
1:36:03:Oh, I can give you plenty of reasons.
1:36:05:I was hungry. I was poor.
1:36:08:I thought Roy was dead, but...
1:36:10:I could make you understand,|but it wouldn't help me.
1:36:13:Oh.
1:36:15:I don't know what to say.
1:36:20:But it's my fault as much as yours|for not having understood...
1:36:24:...for not having taken care of you.|- Oh, don't be nice to me.
1:36:29:If l...
1:36:30:If I leave early in the morning...
1:36:33:If I never see Roy again...
1:36:36:...would you promise me|he'll never know?
1:36:39:I couldn't bear to hurt him like that.
1:36:43:Myra.
1:36:46:Oh, let us wait until the morning.
1:36:49:Let us think this over.
1:36:50:Will you promise?
1:36:55:I promise.
1:36:57:Thank you.
1:37:00:You've been so good.
1:37:03:I wish I could have been|all that you hoped.

1:37:35:Isn't she wonderful?
1:37:37:Yes, she is.
1:37:38:I knew I wouldn't sleep|so I've been in the garden...
1:37:41:...confiding my luck to the stars.|- Were they pleased?
1:37:44:They seemed indifferent. They went on|glittering, the little exhibitionists.
1:37:47:(LAUGHS)
1:37:49:Oh.
1:37:51:- Ever see this before?|- I think so.
1:37:55:Here.
1:37:57:But I gave it to you. It's yours.
1:37:59:I think it'll be safer with you,|just as I'll be.
1:38:03:I dropped it in the garden a moment ago.|I was frantic until I found it again.
1:38:07:I think you'd better have it from now on|because now that we're both...
1:38:10:...as they say, one, it really doesn't matter|which one of us keeps it, does it?
1:38:15:It's brought me luck.|Now let it bring you luck.
1:38:18:I'll keep it for you, Roy.
1:38:20:- I'm tired, darling.|- Yes, you look tired.
1:38:23:- Been a strenuous day for you.|- Yes.
1:38:26:Good night, darling.
1:38:28:Goodbye, darling.
1:38:30:Ha, ha, why "goodbye"|when it's only till morning?
1:38:33:Because every parting from you...
1:38:36:...is like a little eternity.
1:38:40:That's the way I feel too.
1:38:43:- Goodbye.|- Goodbye, little sentimentalist.
1:38:54:ROY:|Tomorrow, all day to ourselves.
1:38:58:Yes, my love.
1:40:08:Wait for me.

1:40:24:- Oh, it's you.|- Hello, Kitty.
1:40:26:- Where's Myra?|- She's not with you?
1:40:28:- What are you talking about?|- She left Scotland last night.
1:40:31:- Without telling you?|- She's not been here, then?
1:40:34:Not since she walked out with you|the other day.
1:40:36:- Look here, can I come in?|- Of course.
1:40:40:I was just having a bite to eat.
1:40:42:Sit down. What's happened?
1:40:45:She left a note|that she couldn't marry me.
1:40:48:Was there any trouble with your family?
1:40:50:No, no, no, none.
1:40:52:It's incredible. I can't understand it at all.
1:40:54:Last night we were together.|She told me she was happy.
1:40:57:- When did she leave?|- The first train for London.
1:41:00:- She must have arrived hours ago.|- Well, she's not been here.
1:41:03:Where is she?
1:41:06:Kitty, there's something|I haven't understood.
1:41:10:I've felt it in the back of my mind|since I came home. You know what it is.
1:41:13:Tell me.
1:41:16:Tell me.
1:41:19:I suppose you better face it, Roy.
1:41:22:I suppose she means for you|never to see her again.
1:41:25:- Why not?|- I don't know! Don't ask me.
1:41:31:What's in back of all this?|If you don't tell me, I'll go to the police.
1:41:34:- Oh, no. Don't go to the police.|- Why shouldn't I?
1:41:38:Roy, can you take it...
1:41:40:...no matter what you find out|about her?
1:41:43:- What are you hinting?|- Answer me. Can you take it?
1:41:46:No matter what I find out, it won't make|any difference. I've got to find her.
1:41:51:Well, come on, then.
1:41:54:We'll look for her.
1:41:58:- Hello, Kitty.|- Have you seen Myra?
1:41:59:- No.|- Are you sure?
1:42:01:See, I know every bit what comes in here,|and Myra particularly.
1:42:04:And when I tells you she ain't, she ain't.
1:42:07:Oh, all right. Thanks.
1:42:08:Why don't you and your gentleman|sit down here for the fight?
1:42:12:Seen Myra?
1:42:13:No, I ain't seen her for about four days.|Where has she gone, the Riviera?
