"Subtitles:" "Luís Filipe Bernardes" "This is the one I like." "Great!" "You selected our brand." "Oh, good." "Just a moment." "We must take a picture." "All right, Joe, make it snappy." "All right." "This way, please, Miss Courtney." "This way?" "Yes, please." "Hold it!" "Still!" "Still!" "Is that all?" "Yes, that's all, Miss Courtney." "And thank you very much." "Heavens, I'm glad I picked the right cigarette." "So are we." "I still can't believe it's the right one." "I have a genius for never doing anything I'm supposed to do." "When will this great advertisement come out in the magazines?" "In the January issue." "Hm, not till then?" "It usually takes about five months." "Will I have to wait until January for the check?" "No, you'll get that in two or three days." "And, listen, for heaven's sake, when you write the advertisement don't put in all that sickening stuff about... society, old New York family, social register and all that rot." "Couldn't you just say Miss Nancy Courtney of New York City, wouldn't that be enough?" "Well, we'll try." "Your mother seems to think we ought to put in something about your family." "Your grandfather, your great-grandmother." "Yes, she would." "Is it all over, dear?" "Yes, mother." "Good afternoon, Miss Courtney, and thank you again." "Thank you." "Come on, boys." "Good afternoon, mam." "Good afternoon, thank you." "Did you get the check?" "They're sending it." "Where are you going?" "I'm going to look for an evening coat at Sterner's." "Oh, yes..." "Oh, yes, what?" "That DeWitt friend of yours telephoned he'd meet you there." "Any objections?" "No." "But I suppose you've forgotten that Norman Cravath is coming here for tea." "No, I haven't forgotten." "Anything else?" "No." "Oh, mother, darling, for heaven's sake, don't worry." "I'll do what you want me to do." "What I want you to do?" "Oh, dear, how can you say such things?" "I said don't worry." "Good afternoon, Miss Courtney." "Good afternoon." "Can I help you?" "Well, I doubt it." "Do you suppose I can find a decent evening coat here?" "We can always try." "I can't find a thing in town I'd think of wearing." "Have you got a match, DeWitt?" "Yes." "What do you think of that one?" "Rather nice." "Come here, will you?" "Turn around." "You needn't look so cross about it." "You're not doing me a favor, you know." "I think that's perfectly charming." "I think it's too awful for words." "Hello, Germaine." "What are you doing in town in August?" "Just a little shopping tour." "Nancy, you're not going to buy that thing, are you?" "Why not?" "Darling, it doesn't become you." "I think I'll take this one." "Suit yourself, dearie." "I wish I could afford one." "Oh, it's too bad about you." "DeWitt, do give the poor starving lady a quarter." "Oh, Miss Prentiss, Mr. Taylor." "Oh, yes?" "See you at the Cummings' tonight?" "I doubt it." "But Norman said..." "I thought I'd give Norman a rest tonight." "It was very kind of you, I'm sure." "See you later." "Why don't you telephone him?" "Shall I send it, Miss Courtney?" "Could I get it this evening?" "It's awfully late." "It doesn't matter." "I'll take it with me then." "Something nice for you to carry, darling." "Here, hold that for me." "Who was that?" "That?" "That's one of my dearest friends." "I wish I could afford one!" "Her father is old P.S. Prentiss." "Oh, what does he do?" "A little of everything." "He owns buildings, and magazines..." "Oh, really?" "What magazines?" "Well, Vanity Bazaar, for one." "Excuse me, Miss Courtney, this is a charge, isn't it?" "Yes, of course." "Thank you." "Help me on, DeWitt." "And don't let me catch you making out with her because her father owns magazines." "I'm not in the habit of getting my stories published that way." "Well lots of writers are." "Come on, let's look around." "I'll be down on the first floor when the package is ready." "Thank you, Miss Courtney." "I wish I could afford one!" "Really, what a..." "That's a perfect gem, Mr. Cravath." "I want something very, very distinctive." "Oh, of course, Mr. Cravath." "Something no one else would have." "I don't think you'll do much better than that, sir." "No." "But let me look at the other one." "Good afternoon, Miss Prentiss." "The thing is stuck again." "May I see it, please." "I wish you'd fix it so that..." "Buying something for me, Norman?" "Oh, hello, Germaine." "Just choosing a cigarette case." "How much did you say this one was?" "Eight hundred, Mr. Cravath." "Eight hundred?" "You haven't a cigarette, have you, Norman?" "Why, certainly." "It is nice of them to sell the cigarettes with the cases." "It's a little specialty we have, Miss Prentiss." "For $800, you get the case and ten fortunas." "Isn't that interesting." "I think I'll buy this one." "Oh, but Mr. Cravath..." "I like fortunas." "But I'm afraid Mr. Cravath likes that one." "Surely not if I want it too." "No... no, of course not." "Goodbye, Germaine." "I'll be in again." "Oh, Norman." "Why aren't you coming tonight?" "I'm sorry, but I can't." "Why?" "I have another engagement." "With Nancy?" "I think it's very mean." "I tell you, I think it's terribly mean." "I come all the way from Southampton..." "Don't let's have an argument here." "Here's your case." "Why didn't you answer my letter?" "I didn't have anything to say." "Will you telephone me?" "Yes." "No, you won't." "You said that before." "Why didn't you answer my letter?" "Please, Germaine!" "Will you telephone me?" "Yes." "Ah, this looks more human." "Let's see." "There." "That's divine." "We'll take this one and..." "would you throw that away, please." "Hey, that's my hat!" "I know it." "Excuse me, Miss Courtney, could I speak to you a minute?" "What about?" "Where's my coat?" "It's about that." "You see..." "the credit manager..." "What have I to do with the credit manager?" "Where is my coat?" "There must be some mistake, Miss Courtney, but would you talk to him a minute?" "I'll do nothing of the sort." "I've never heard of such a thing." "Where's Mr. Sterner's office?" "And what's your name?" "This isn't my fault, Miss Courtney." "I don't care whose fault it is." "Mr. Sterner's office is on the top floor." "I'm sure it can be straightened out." "I'm sure it better be." "I beg your pardon." "Yes?" "Oh, ask her to come in." "Well, this is a great store you've got here, I must say." "Hello, Nancy, what's on your mind?" "Ben, I'm really furious." "Of course you are, it's an awful store, we cheat the life out of you..." "I know, Ben, but I don't see why I should be subjected to insults by your clerks." "Come now, Nancy, I don't believe a clerk would insult you." "Well, she did, and I wish you'd have her discharged." "Of course I will." "What was it about?" "I really don't know." "I didn't listen." "I know that I've ordered an evening coat and I should like to take it home." "And you shall take it home." "What's to hinder?" "Something about a credit manager." "Oh..." "Credit manager, please." "This is Mr. Sterner, Jr. talking." "What's this about Miss Courtney?" "Well, that's the bunk." "You had no right to do such a thing." "Thank you, Ben." "Do you mind if I say something, Nancy?" "Go ahead." "How long are you going to keep this up?" "What do you mean?" "Aren't you riding for a fall, Nancy?" "Sooner or later." "Is it worth it?" "What else can I do, Ben?" "You know how I was brought up." "The Courtneys must have the best of everything." "Then, when father died and we were broke... we were still the Courtneys." "Faking, plunging on everybody." "I used to cry my heart out." "I was so humiliated by it." "But you know what this town is." "Pretty soon I didn't mind anymore." "Oh, come, Nancy." "You've got better stuff in you than that." "Well, I used to think so, Ben, but..." "I don't anymore." "All we do is go along getting what we can, all we can." "Just waiting for poor aunt Julia to die and leave us some money." "It's pretty rotten, Ben." "Don't you think I don't know it?" "Er... what about Norman Cravath?" "Never mind, Ben." "Don1t you bother your head about me." "Well, I'll be running along." "Goodbye." "Thank you so much, Ben." "Oh..." "Ben, don't bother to discharge the clerk this time." "I may have been in the wrong." "It wouldn't be the first time." "The customer is always right." "So long." "Goodbye." "Where are you going?" "Come on in for a minute." "Church?" "Yes, it won't hurt you." "Yeah, but what for?" "Oh, I don't know, it's sort of quiet." "What were you crying about?" "You." "Thanks." "Am I that bad?" "I prayed that you'd always be the same." "Me?" "No matter what happened to me." "Oh, I love you so." "DeWitt." "What?" "I'm going to have to marry Norman Cravath." "It's the only thing left to do." "We owe money to everybody in town." "We haven't got a cent." "DeWitt, I'm desperate!" "I know, but..." "If it wasn't for mother, I wouldn't do it." "But I can't go on like this." "You don't blame me, do you?" "Do you?" "No, of course not." "Don't say it like that." "DeWitt, if I married you it would be dreadful for both of us." "I know." "I don't love Norman." "I love you." "I'll always love you." "That's why I prayed that you wouldn't change." "You mean so much to me." "You're the only real thing in my life." "You must believe that." "You're the only thing that isn't connected with money." "You're the only thing I want." "Let's get out of here." "Come in." "I've got a bill here due." "From Salmon and Company." "How dare you come up here without being announced." "I tried being announced." "An amount of $1,295.00." "I don't know anything about any bills." "My daughter takes care of all that." "Where can I find your daughter?" "My daughter is out of town." "Good afternoon, Norman." "Hello, Mrs. Courtney." "Pardon me." "You'll excuse us, won't you?" "Where did you say I might find your daughter?" "I said my daughter was out of town." "Good afternoon." "What's her address out of town?" "Won't you please leave?" "I think you'd better leave." "I said I think you'd better leave." "I'll put this in the hands of our attorneys tomorrow." "Excuse me a moment." "Just a minute." "What is the bill?" "$1,295.00." "Dresses for Mrs. Courtney since last November." "Do you want the check now?" "Yes, sir." "Let me see the bill." "Hello, Norman." "Hello, Nancy." "What's going on?" "Oh, nothing." "This gentleman is soliciting for charity." "Oh?" "May I see?" "That charity doesn't need any help." "That's just foolish." "At least you might think of my pride." "Now don't be upset about my being here." "I'm going right away and you can be alone." "I don't care whether we're alone or not." "My dear, don't talk like that." "You know." "Yes, I know." "You don't have to tell me." "Can I come in?" "I don't know." "What do you think?" "I think I'd better come in." "If we give you tea, will you promise not to offer to pay for it?" "Ouch!" "Aren't you ashamed of yourself?" "No." "I hope you don't mind my rushing right off." "But my sister Julia isn't at all quite well." "It's too bad." "Nothing serious, I hope." "No, it's never serious." "Worse luck." "Nancy doesn't mean that." "I don't?" "If that old tightwad would just pass out." "Nancy, dear." "Your aunt is a very sick woman." "Oh, really?" "How sick?" "Oh, my dear!" "You're absolutely inhuman." "Of course I am." "Don't believe her, Norman." "She really loves her aunt dearly." "I'm sure she does." "Goodbye." "Goodbye." "It makes me simply furious, Aunt Julia with all that money and..." "And what?" "Nothing." "Would you like some tea or would you rather have a scotch and soda?" "Neither, thanks." "Will you have one?" "Yes, I'm sort of shocked." "What's the matter?" "Oh, nothing." "I've been shopping." "Yes?" "Oh, dear!" "What?" "DeWitt's walked off with my new evening coat." "DeWitt?" "Why do you laugh?" "I don't know." "It seems sort of funny a man shopping in the afternoon." "I mean, not working." "You know what I'm going to do some day?" "I'm going to build a building that'll make those look like shacks." "That's what I'd like to do." "Build something." "Something beautiful." "Those are pretty beautiful as they are." "Yes, but somebody else built them." "I want something that's entirely my own." "A Norman Cravath building." "Something you can see from miles." "Something that'll be there after I'm gone." "I'll have money for it, too, in a couple of years." "You seem awfully sure." "Of course I'm sure." "You don't start with nothing the way I did and run it up to 8 million dollars without being sure of something." "There's one thing I'd like to be sure of, though." "Yes?" "I picked up some land out on Long Island today." "About 50 acres." "Near Westbury." "What are you going to do?" "Grow cabbages?" "No." "I thought I might want to build a house." "Norman, what on earth do you want with a house?" "Oh, I don't know." "I'm tired of living at the club." "Lonely?" "No." "I thought it might be fun to have a house." "I see, sort of a nest." "Well, er... yes." "And who's going to lay the eggs?" "Eggs?" "Or perhaps you're going to buy your eggs?" "There are some things money can't buy." "I know they aren't for that one." "Ah, you do?" "What do you think you'll start to build?" "That depends." "On whether there's one thing that money can't buy?" "Yes." "Norman..." "What?" "Do you want to marry me?" "Yes." "Why?" "Because I love you." "All right." "Let's get married." "You will?" "Of course." "Darling." "I'm glad that's over." "Don't tell me you were afraid I wouldn't marry you." "Well... no." "I thought not." "There's the one thing I needed." "You mean me?" "Yes." "Now I have everything I want." "You have?" "Yes." "Now I've got the world licked." "Norman." "Yes?" "Will you do me a favor?" "Anything up to 8 million dollars." "Is that the evaluation?" "I was just joking." "What favor?" "Will you marry me right away?" "What, tonight?" "No, tomorrow." "Tomorrow afternoon." "What time shall I call you?" "Noon." "Not before noon?" "Not a minute before." "All right." "I've a million things to do." "Wait till you see your ring." "I picked it out this afternoon." "Oh, Judas!" "What?" "Wait until Germaine hears of this." "I can hardly wait." "I feel sort of sorry for her." "Yes, look what she's missing." "Goodbye, Mrs. Cravath." "Miss Courtney to you, please." "Goodbye, Mrs. Cravath." "And sleep well." "Spring 79970, please." "Come in." "Darling." "I was just calling you." "What's the idea?" "The idea is to get out of here." "How much money have you got?" "A dollar." "That's all right." "I can cash a check downstairs." "I can't have dinner with you tonight." "Why not?" "Because I've got another engagement." "Oh, no, DeWitt, you haven't." "Listen, darling..." "Tomorrow I become Mrs. Cravath." "Tonight you and I are going somewhere we've never been before." "And somewhere we'll never go again." "You're going to do wonderful things." "Great things." "Oh, DeWitt..." "I will be so proud of you." "And you?" "Oh, I'll make out all right." "Sure, you'll make out." "That's the trouble with your whole crowd." "They make out, they're successful." "There's nothing real about them." "They don't know anything about life." "I know, but don't you see..." "Sure I see." "You're going to spend the rest of your life with a lot of rich successful people." "People who don't know the beauty of poverty, people who don't know anything about real love." "It's the only life I've ever known, DeWitt, except for you." "That's why I'm so thankful, for even the little bit of you that I've had." "That's why I want you to know that I'll always hold on to the memory of you." "I can always go back to that church in the street." "You'll need it." "Yes." "I don't know what this marriage is going to be like." "It's not going to be easy." "You know that, don't you, darling?" "It won't be so hard." "You'll have your money." "Don't say things like that." "You'll think of me, too, won't you?" "You know, this whole thing might make a very good play." "Don't make a play out of it." "That would spoil it." "Don't let it be spoiled." "It's so quiet." "So peaceful." "Oh, DeWitt!" "I'm going to miss you so." "But we'll see each other." "No." "This is the end." "But all the rest of my life I shall have this night." "I shall have you in my heart." "Oh, darling." "DeWitt..." "Darling, have you seen this?" "The boy just brought up tomorrow morning's paper." "Yes, I have one." "Very nice, don't you think?" "Mrs. Norman Cravath." "Don't you get quite a kick out of that?" "Well, Mrs. Cravath, everything all right?" "Didn't the boy bring up those vases?" "Does it make any difference." "There are too many vases as it is." "Yes, but when I pay for something I expect to get it." "Yes." "What's the matter?" "Nothing." "Happy?" "Yes." "How about some music on our wedding night?" "Good evening Albert." "Good evening, Mr. Taylor." "Nice evening." "Yes, sir." "Hello, DeWitt." "Aren't you the early bird?" "And are you the worm?" "Do I look like a worm, DeWitt?" "You certainly don't." "I'm glad you're so early." "I want to talk about your play." "I read it last night." "I think it's too marvelous for words." "Did you really like it?" "I loved it." "It's divine." "How soon will it be produced?" "Well, that depends on whether I can find somebody to put up the money for it." "Of course you can find somebody." "There's father, for instance." "Don't you remember what he said to you way back last fall, when I took you to meet him, ...about writing a play?" "I know, but..." "I'd hate to have you do anything more for me." "Don't be silly." "Why shouldn't I?" "I'm going to be awfully proud of you some day." "Some day?" "I'm proud of you now, stupid." "Come on." "Let's talk about your play before everybody comes." "I want you to change one thing in the first act." "Who's coming tonight?" "I've got a surprise for you." "Who?" "You'll find out." "Are you busy, darling?" "I'll be with you in a moment, mother." "All right." "How are you, darling?" "I'm just on my way to Aunt Julia's." "Oh?" "What's the matter with her?" "I don't think she's taken ill yet but..." "you never can tell." "That's a hopeful way to look at it anyway." "Oh, darling..." "You shouldn't say such things, especially since we don't need Aunt Julia's money now." "No?" "We never needed it more." "What do you mean?" "Is Norman in any trouble?" "No, but I am." "Oh, if I just had some money of my own." "But what on earth for?" "Norman gives me everything." "That's just it!" "Norman gives me everything." "There hasn't been a day in the six months I've been married to him... that he hasn't made me feel conscious of what he's done for me and what he's done for you." "Has he said anything about me?" "No, of course not." "But he's got us both so indebted to him that I can't fight anymore." "Fight?" "For what?" "For myself, for what I used to be." "For Nancy Courtney." "There isn't a Nancy Courtney anymore." "There only a Mrs. Norman Cravath and I'm sick of her." "You're not thinking of leaving him?" "Oh, you couldn't be." "I don't know." "Have you been seeing that writer lately?" "I haven't seen him since we were married." "Who's that?" "Oh... nobody." "Nobody at all, Norman." "Nancy and I were just talking." "Aren't we going to be a little late?" "Germaine said 8:30 dinner." "I don't think I'll go." "I'd like to leave in five minutes." "I'm afraid I've made Nancy late, I'll be running right along." "Goodbye, darling." "Goodbye." "I'll telephone you about Aunt Julia." "Goodbye, Norman." "Goodbye." "Please, dear, won't you hurry?" "I said I'm not going." "Isn't it rather late to decide that?" "Oh, Norman, I don't feel well." "I haven't felt well all day." "Why?" "What's the matter?" "I don't know." "You'll feel all right when you get to the party." "Come along, darling." "I'm not going!" "All right, we won't go." "We won't do, of course, anything you don't want to do." "Why consider my feelings in the matter?" "If you're really sick, why don't you go to bed and we'll have a doctor." "I'm not sick I don't understand you." "I try to give you everything, to make you happy and comfortable." "I'm grateful, Norman." "I don't mean that." "But here's something you know I want to do..." "All right, I'll go." "I don't want you to come out of gratitude." "I should like to go." "I think that perhaps would really be better, dear." "Five minutes?" "We won't wait any longer." "She's always late." "It's perfectly absurd." "I'm so sorry." "I'm awfully ashamed about this." "I'm simply starving." "I know." "It's dreadful." "Well, the late Mr. and Mrs. Cravath." "Hello, Germaine, how are you?" "We're the last to arrive?" "You certainly are." "It doesn't make any difference." "Sorry, it was my fault." "Now, Norman, you know it was mine." "I expected you'd be late." "I've got an old friend of yours here tonight." "Yes?" "DeWitt." "Hello, DeWitt." "Good evening, Nancy." "You haven't seen each other for a long time, have you?" "And this is Mr. Cravath, Mr. Taylor." "Hello, there, glad to see you." "Glad to see you." "How is your writing going?" "Very well, thanks." "Good." "DeWitt, I want you to talk to the Countess Celina." "She's crazy about that last story of yours." "You know he's right?" "He seems to be coming along very well indeed." "What do you think, Tom?" "Frankly, Norman, I'm worried to death." "About consolidated?" "About everything." "Every stock on the floor has declined." "I can't see that at all." "The country is too prosperous." "Oh, we've got the world licked." "I hope you're right, Norman." "Of course I'm right." "Have you really missed me?" "Of course." "Why didn't you come down that time last November when you called me up?" "I couldn't." "Why not?" "You ought to know." "You play very well, don't you?" "Backgammon?" "Any game." "What game, for instance?" "Well, for instance, social games." "Oh, really?" "How long has it been going on?" "I don't think I understand." "I don't think you want to understand." "Oh, DeWitt, you've changed." "Have I?" "Have you?" "I don't think so." "Don't you know?" "Everybody changes." "No, that isn't true." "I haven't changed." "DeWitt, I haven't changed." "TPM, three quarters." "RU, twelve and a half." "IP, twenty-one and three quarters." "AO, forty-six, three quarters." "XW, forty-two." "CN, sixteen and a half." "AWW, fifty-five." "TUY, forty-six and three quarters." "NPO, thirty-three and one quarter." "FHK, twenty-two and a half." "We're still here in our hell." "Yes." "Don't know anyone who wants a good office boy, do you?" "Do you know anyone who wants to buy a nice house out in Long Island?" "Just finished." "Twelve guestrooms." "What are you doing down here?" "I had to come, Norman." "Why?" "What's the matter?" "Our marriage." "Oh, please, not today." "Yes, today." "Now." "No, I don't want to talk about it today." "Why not today as well as any other day, Norman?" "There's something I've been trying to tell you for some time but you wouldn't listen to me." "Now you've got to." "Well?" "I'm going to leave you, Norman." "You certainly picked on a good day to quit." "Isn't it better to quit than to go on like this?" "I've tried to make a go of it." "That's not so." "Oh, yes it is." "But I can't stand it any longer." "I know it's my fault." "I should never have married you." "But I was desperate." "But it hasn't left me any self-respect at all." "I just can't stand by and watch my mother and... heaven knows who else plunge on you." "I thought it was hard enough to do it without hating myself." "But I can't bear it any longer." "I see." "How about me?" "You're not losing anything, Norman." "You've got everything that means most to you." "You've got your money, your ambition." "When did this big feeling first hit you?" "Explain me about your self-respect." "I've had it since the very first night we were married." "I made up my mind today at Aunt Julia's funeral." "How much did Aunt Julia leave you?" "Oh, Norman." "Please, you must believe me." "She left me nothing." "She left everything to charity." "Except just enough to take care of mother." "Well, what are you going to do?" "I don't have to worry about mother now." "So I'm free." "I'm going to do what I never had the courage to do before." "I'm going to the man I love." "We'll get by somehow." "All right." "Get out!" "Take your self-respect with you!" "Go to your writer." "Goodbye, Norman." "Oh..." "It's me, darling." "DeWitt..." "I've left Norman." "For good?" "For good!" "But why?" "I told you the other night I hadn't changed." "Yes, I know, but... how about money, how about your mother?" "Oh..." "Mother's all right." "Aunt Julia died." "Mother's got so much money she's going around the world." "Oh, I'm so glad it's all over." "It wasn't easy." "Norman..." "What did Norman say?" "Nothing." "But he looked so so..." "Oh, DeWitt." "Have you got a drink, darling?" "DeWitt..." "You know what I want to do tonight?" "I want to go down to that beach." "I want to hear that gypsy orchestra." "I don't think that's open now." "But it'll have to be open." "Oh, if you knew how I've dreamed of that place." "I'm afraid I haven't any wine left." "DeWitt..." "It doesn't matter." "Plain water will do." "I'll get it, darling." "I had to leave Norman, DeWitt." "I know I'm right." "I know I'm right." "It would have to be you." "Hello, Nancy." "Hello, Ben." "Sit down." "Waiting for Norman?" "No." "Waiting for me?" "Yes." "Suppose I didn't come." "What do you want?" "What's that, an Old-Fashioned?" "Come on, let's get out." "There's too much ermine in here." "Let's go where there are only poor people." "How's this?" "Any ermine in here?" "Tony, any ermine?" "Ermine?" "I ain't seen 'em." "Will this be all right?" "What'll you have, folks?" "Bring me an Old-Fashioned." "Old-Fashioned?" "Two, Tony." "Two Old-Fashioned." "Where's Norman?" "I don't know." "He took an awful beating this afternoon." "I read about it." "Let's get him." "Let's cheer him up." "I can't." "I've left him." "Well you certainly picked a good time." "I didn't know anything about this crash." "Go back to him." "I can't." "Why not?" "I can't." "Oh, you and your pride." "Oh, I know." "Don't Ben!" "What's the matter with me anyway?" "I try to do what I think is right..." "Well, you know best." "No." "That's just it." "I don't." "If I did, I wouldn't make such a mess of things." "But if I don't know right, who does, Ben?" "Don't ask me." "If I love somebody, that isn't my fault." "Oh, I'm all mixed up." "Who is this that you love?" "Nobody." "Do you want to talk anymore?" "No!" "I want to get drunk." "Good old Nancy!" "She means well." "Hello there, failure." "Hello." "Got a lot of nerve coming here tonight." "What do you expect me to do?" "Crawl into the hole?" "I should say not." "I've heard there's something else, Norman." "We may just about pull through this thing." "Of course we'll pull through." "I'm not licked by a downside." "I think Henderson and Thomas are going to lay off for a little while." "How about the banks, how do you stand with old man Sterner?" "I'm going right from here to see Ben." "I'll get him to talk to his father in the morning." "Fine." "How's Nancy taking it?" "All right." "No quitter, that girl." "No." "Ben!" "Come here!" "I want you to meet some wonderful people." "Ben, this is Ethel." "Hello, Ben." "May." "Hello, dearie." "And what's your name?" "Joe." "Joe, meet Ben." "Aren't they wonderful?" "They all work for a living." "I'm going to work for living." "Workers of the world, how about a drink on Ben?" "You're my girl, ain't you, kid?" "Sure I'm your girl." "I'm everybody's girl." "Tony!" "Can you make a Widow's Dream?" "A Widow's Dream?" "I never even heard of it." "Oh, listen, this ain't no place." "I know a swell place on Second Avenue." "So let's go there!" "All right!" "Come on!" "Even though I knew tomorrow... you said we'd be through." "If we drift apart then I'll be left alone though you used my heart for just a stepping stone." "How can I help dreaming of you?" "I love you, I'm yours." "How about going home?" "Ben, this is Eddie." "Hiya, Ben," "What do you say we go home?" "Go on, get out of here." "She's going home with me." "I'm sorry, old man, but I think she's going home with me." "No, she's not." "She's going home with me." "Now listen..." "Oh, Nancy, Oh, Ben..." "Meet Al." "Hello." "Ben..." "I just thought of a good joke." "The best joke in the world." "Yeah?" "Wouldn't it be a great one if I found out now that I really love Norman?" "Yes, that would be a good one." "Can I get you anything, Mr. Cravath?" "No." "No, thank you." "I'm sure Mr. Sterner will be home very soon." "Well, I'll wait a little while longer." "Yes, sir." "Having fun, kid?" "Sure." "So why are you all in black for?" "Did somebody die?" "Yes, I died." "You want to come to the funeral, Al?" "You bet." "It's going to be a great funeral." "We're going to have real Hungarian music." "Come on, honey." "Let's go over to Ben's and get something to drink." "Come on, honey." "Come on!" "I don't know about you, but I won't go upstairs." "What is this, a hotel?" "Girls!" "Here's a customer!" "Can I see you for a minute, Sterner?" "Let's have a little family talk." "I'd rather see you alone if you don't mind." "Well, let's go in the other room." "Come on in and see us." "Hey, Ben." "How about something to drink?" "Jenkins!" "Drinks." "Jenkins!" "Big drinks." "Well I think that you're wrong." "She needs you badly." "I never want to see her again." "But look here, Norman." "She hasn't done anything." "She didn't even know you were broke." "I'd rather not talk about it." "But Judas to Judas..." "I know that she loves you." "She married me for my money." "What if she did?" "This is New York, isn't it?" "What do you want?" "I want never to see her again." "All right." "I say, Ben..." "Will you go down and see your father with me in the morning?" "Oh, sure." "As a matter of fact I know he's going to help you out for a while anyway." "I talked to him right after the crash." "I'm very grateful for that, Ben." "I wish you'd do me a favor in return." "What's that?" "Take Nancy back." "Is she asking?" "No." "And she never will." "Good night, Ben." "See you in the morning." "Good night, Norman." "Good morning." "Oh, good morning." "What can I do for you?" "I'm looking for a position." "Oh... well... er..." "Have you had any experience?" "Well, I really haven't." "I'm sorry." "Oh, good morning, Miss Prentiss." "I'm so glad to see you." "Good morning." "Let me see that little brown hat in the window." "Well, of course, Miss Prentiss." "Why, hello, Nancy." "Hello, Germaine." "No, I don't like this hat at all." "Isn't it tough getting a job?" "I've been out all day long." "So have I. Have you had any luck at all?" "What sort of work do you do?" "Well, I thought I might sell something." "Had any experience?" "Oh, yes." "I've worked at a junior league fair." "I've, er..." "I can ride very well." "Shorthand?" "No, on a horse." "Next." "Hey, Nancy!" "Nancy!" "Where the deuce have you been?" "I've been out of town visiting." "You're a liar." "I know it." "How about a little dinner with me?" "Why, I've dined, Ben." "I'm..." "I..." "Joe!" "What's the matter?" "Hello." "Hello." "I've just been talking to the doctor." "I suppose you know what's the matter with you?" "It's great, isn't it?" "Congratulations." "Congratulate Norman." "Does he know that he's to become a father?" "No." "And I don't want him to, Ben." "Promise me." "Judas..." "No, Ben, promise!" "Or else I'll run away again." "Why shouldn't you tell him?" "He'd be tickled to death." "I'll tell you why." "I don't want to get together with Norman again... just on account of a baby." "Then you do want to get together with him." "That's not the point." "No?" "No!" "If ever I do go back to Norman, it's got to be because he wants me." "Oh, I know that sounds noble and all that, but..." "I really mean it, Ben." "Will you promise?" "Yes." "What about your mother?" "I don't want her to know either." "But that's all right, though." "She's going to live in Paris for a while." "It's cheaper." "Ben, will you do something else for me?" "For instance?" "Will you lend me enough money to have the baby with?" "Well, now, I don't know." "Is it going to be a big baby?" "Ben!" "Darling!" "I am so in love and why I love you so." "Oh, all right." "All right." "Hmm, gracious me!" "My darling, why are you joking like that?" "Come along, my beautiful baby!" "Look at that nose, darling, that's a bad boy." "Show mommy your dimple, darling." "Gracious!" "Oh, you're so beautiful!" "And you're so ridiculous, and I love you so." "I love you... oh, hello, Cora." "You're late." "I've got to run." "Hello there, Mr. Norman." "How are you today?" "Say hello to Cora." "Hello!" "You kept mother awake all night." "Bad boy." "Cora, I'll be back about six." "Will you be a dear and watch the stove?" "There's money for the ice on the mantlepiece." "Now, darling, no, you be a good boy." "You fathead." "Mommy will give you a sock in the nose." "Goodbye, darling." "Goodbye, Cora." "Goodbye, I'll take care of him." "I'm so sorry, Miss Gibbons, but there was a terrible jam in the subway." "That's quite all right." "But don't let it happen again." "Thank you." "Good morning, Mr. Sterner." "You're Miss... er?" "Courtney." "Number 289." "Oh, yes." "This is your first month with us, Miss Courtney?" "Yes, Mr. Sterner." "Well, don't forget that when you've been with us for fifty years you'll be eligible to receive the Sterner Gold Medal." "I can hardly wait." "Good." "How do you feel, mama?" "Great, Ben." "Take it easy for a while." "How is the heir?" "Oh, he's awfully cute." "But a terrible nuisance." "If there are any questions you want to ask me about the care and feeding of children, just come right up to the office." "Thank you, doctor." "I'll remember that." "Ben." "Yes?" "Have you seen Norman lately?" "Uh... yes, as a matter of fact." "How did he seem?" "Why?" "Well, I'll tell you." "He's been on my mind an awful lot lately." "Is he happy?" "Not particularly." "Say anything about me?" "Not that I remember." "I've got some sort of a feeling that he's in trouble." "If I could just see him." "You know what I mean." "It might be a very good idea." "Here's the thing, Ben." "I've thought this whole thing out." "And..." "I'd like to go back to Norman." "I gave him a pretty raw deal." "You might tell him that." "It's just that..." "Ben..." "I can't beg him to take me back." "You know I'm not any good at begging." "Do you want me to go with you?" "No." "This is something I've got to do alone." "Thanks, Ben... but I've got to do this by myself." "Better do it soon." "Why?" "I just think it would be a good idea." "Ben!" "I tell you what you could do." "You might wait in the street outside Norman's hotel with a net and some arnica." "Who for?" "For little Nancy and her big pride swallowing act." "I've got a hunch it's going to be an awful flop." "I had to come back again." "This cape isn't right." "Oh, really, madam, that's too bad." "Let me see it." "I don't see why you can't get things right." "This is the third time I've had to bring this back." "I'm sure we can fix it for you." "Would you just step this way, please." "There, that's better." "I'm sure it will be all right now, madam." "Well it better be." "And I shall want it this evening." "You shall have it this evening, thank you." "Hello, Germaine." "Hello, Norman." "Hello, Nancy." "Anything I can do for you?" "I didn't know." "Oh, you didn't?" "Nancy, could you show me something in an evening coat?" "Something rather light." "I think so." "Would you step this way, please." "I'll wait here." "Oh, all right." "Oh, no, no, no." "Let me see that one." "This one?" "What do you think?" "Are you going to marry Norman?" "I came here to buy a coat, my dear, not to discuss Norman." "Are you going to marry Norman?" "I really haven't quite made up my mind." "Perhaps I shall." "Let me see some others." "Has Norman asked you?" "Of course." "Any objection?" "No, except that I should hate to be married for my money." "Yes." "So did Norman." "That's quite true." "Still, it might be difficult to prove in a divorce court." "I don't think there will be any trouble about a divorce." "This is not bad." "Let me see it." "Norman could always go to Reno, I suppose." "Not if I'm going to fight the case." "Not if I offer to go back and live with him." "You might try that once." "Yes, I think I shall." "I wouldn't." "Unless you want to be thrown out into the street." "The way he threw you out?" "When?" "When he married me." "How do you like this little number?" "Have you ever seen anything of your friend DeWitt lately?" "He was very fond of you at one time." "He told me all about your little affair." "You're a lovely girl, aren't you?" "Yes?" "I know." "I think I'll take this one." "You haven't been seeing much of DeWitt yourself, have you?" "That little climber." "It really won't do you any good to go to Norman about my affair with him either." "I don't think that will be necessary." "No?" "Why not?" "You're not going to marry Norman." "You don't think so." "And why?" "He doesn't love you." "He loves me." "Listen." "I'm listening." "Norman does love me." "And if I make up my mind to marry him, and you get in my way again..." "Yes?" "You dirty little rat!" "Excuse me, Miss Prentiss, is this a charge?" "Come in." "Why did you leave the store this afternoon, Norman?" "I couldn't stay..." "I didn't know you were working there." "I've been there about a month now." "I didn't have any idea things were as bad as that with you." "It wasn't bad." "It couldn't have been as bad as being married to me." "It wasn't so bad being married to you." "Needn't have been, perhaps." "Just didn't work out." "Ever since you left me I've thought about it." "A lot." "So have I." "I loved you." "I expected too much." "You know, Nancy." "When I look back I can only remember one or two moments of tenderness." "All the rest was bitter and hard." "I know." "So it's best it's over." "It's too late." "Norman." "Is it too late to tell you that I know what a fool I was about DeWitt?" "You know all about DeWitt and me." "Yes." "I would have told you." "I want to tell you everything about me, Norman." "I want you to know that I realize the mess I made of everything." "How terribly unfair to you I was." "I want you to know that because..." "I want another chance." "I want to be your wife again." "Why?" "Because I love you." "And it isn't too late." "Unless you don't love me anymore." "That's the only thing that could keep us apart." "That's what I came to find out." "Oh, Norman." "Come in." "Oh, Norman..." "You were right, Norman." "It is too late." "It's quite difficult, isn't it?" "The dear little shop girl wants her husband back." "Oh, don't." "What's that?" "I said don't!" "You haven't learned much in a year, have you?" "Well I have." "And I've learned more this evening." "Goodbye, Norman." "I'll call you in the morning." "That won't be necessary." "Just send me a cable to the boat." "Sailing?" "I've a certain amount of pride myself." "Goodbye, Norman." "And I hope you two will be very, very unhappy." "Oh!" "I'm not going to marry Germaine." "I'm so glad." "Oh, Norman!" "I'm so glad!" "Well, you won't be getting very much of a fellow." "There are times when I think I'm not so wonderful myself." "We're older, Norman." "Yes." "Funny, isn't it, the way things change." "Remember how I used to talk before we got married?" "Of what I was going to do?" "Remember the Cravath building?" "Do you want to see it?" "See what?" "The Cravath building." "Cravath building?" "Why didn't you tell me?" "I didn't want us to start off wrong again, Norman." "I wanted you to want me back, not just take me back." "I want you." "I know." "Subtitles:" "Luís Filipe Bernardes"
