OF LINGLEY LTD.
THE PEOPLE YOU MEE ON OCEAN LINERS.
THE PEOPLE YOU MEE IN THE NEWSPAPER GAME.
SORRY, MR. BERGNER,
BUT I'VE TRIED TO EXPLAIN
HOW IT MUST BE DONE.
YES. I UNDERSTAND.
BUT IF YOU'LL
FORGIVE ME,
I THOUGHT MY RECORD,
THOSE PAPERS,
PERHAPS
AN EXCEPTION.
I MUST LEAVE.
I MUST GET AWAY.
YOU'RE VIENNESE,
BUT YOU FOUGH WITH THE FREE FRENCH.
YES. UNTIL I WAS
HOSPITALIZED.

GROUP "E."
GROUP "E."
CONCERT PIANIST.
SURELY YOU MUST NEED SAILORS, STEWARDS
- SOMETHING.
I'VE NO MONEY,
YOU SEE.
MY DEAR MAN,
NOTHING CAN BE DONE HERE
WITHOUT AN EXIT PERMIT.
COULD YOU SAY, SIR?
COULD YOU TELL ME
HOW LONG IT WOULD TAKE?
YOU'RE NO A BRITISH SUBJECT.
YOU'VE BEEN HERE
LESS THAN A YEAR.
I SEE YOUR WIFE,
SHE'S NOT TO
COME WITH ME.
SHE'LL BE ALL RIGH HERE.
HOW LONG SIR,
THE PERMIT?
FOR ME ONLY
IF I GET IT.
WELL, WITH LUCK,
SIX MONTHS.
SIX MONTHS?
I'M VERY SORRY,
MR. BERGNER.
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU, SIR.
HE'S A MUSICIAN.
SENSITIVE SORT.
A REAL SOLDIER,

IT'S AWFUL ROUGH
ON A MAN LIKE THAT.

GROUP "F."
THE REVEREND WILLIAM DUKE.
MRS. CLIVEDEN-BANKS.
MISS MAXINE RUSSELL.
MRS. MIDGET.
MR. LINGLEY.
THIS WAY, PLEASE.
BERGNER, TAKE COVER!
STEP LIVELY.
INTO THE SHUTTLE.
INTO THE SHUTTLE.
WHAT ARE YOU WAITING
FOR? GET YOUR MOTOR GOING.
WE'VE GOT TO CATCH
THAT SHIP.
GO ON, SAM.
GO AHEAD.
WAIT! WAIT!
WAIT, PLEASE.
GET AWAY.
HENRY!
GET AWAY. WILL YOU DRIVE ON?
COME ALONG. TAKE COVER!
HENRY!
HENRY!
HENRY!
HENRY!
YOU WENT TO
THE STEAMSHIP OFFICE.
YOU WANT TO GO AWAY,
HENRY, LEAVE ME.
NO. I'M ALL RIGHT.
GO BACK, ANN.
GO BACK TO YOUR PLACE
AT THE SHOP.
BUT I KNOW, HENRY.
OH, I KNOW.
THIS MORNING
WHEN I LEFT YOU,
I COULD HARDLY
MAKE MYSELF GO.
THERE IS NOTHING WRONG.
BELIEVE ME. NOTHING.
GO BACK, ANN.
HENRY, WHEN TWO PERSONS ARE AS
CLOSE TO EACH OTHER AS WE ARE,
ONE KNOWS EVERYTHING
THAT GOES ON
IN THE OTHER'S
HEART AND MIND.
DO YOU THINK
I DON'T UNDERSTAND?
DO YOU THINK
I HAVEN'T SEEN-
HENRY...
THE WINDOWS ARE SEALED.
YOU SEALED THEM!
GO BACK, ANN!
THE GAS,
YOU'VE TURNED IT ON!
BECAUSE I'M NO GOOD,
ANN.
NOT TO YOU,
NOT TO MYSELF.
I CAN'T WORK...
MY HANDS.
I CAN'T PLAY.
I CAN'T LIVE.
WE SHOULD NEVER
HAVE MET.
YOU SHOULD NEVER
HAVE MARRIED ME.
I'M ONLY SPOILING
EVERYTHING FOR YOU,
DAY BY DAY,
HOUR BY HOUR.
I THOUGHT I COULD
MAKE YOU FORGET...
MAKE EVERYTHING GOOD,
WARM FOR YOU AGAIN.
OH, I HOPED.
I TRIED FOR MONTHS.
THE PIANO.
THIS LITTLE FLAT.
I CAN'T DO ANYTHING.
I KNOW THAT NOW.
NO. DON'T SAY THAT.
JUST GO. GO!
I DON'T WANT TO DIE,
HENRY. I DON'T.
DIE? OH, MY DARLING,
I WANT YOU TO
LIVE ON WITHOUT ME.
I WANT YOU TO
BE FREE, HAPPY.
WITHOUT YOU? NO.
YOU KNOW I CAN'T DO THAT.
TAKE ME WITH YOU.
LET ME GO WITH YOU.
PLEASE, PLEASE,
WE MUST GO TOGETHER.
WE MUST. WE MUST.
THIS IS A STEAMSHIP, ANN.
A BIG LINER.
THE WIND.
WE'RE SAILING.
BUT THEY TOLD ME
IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE.
I NEEDED AN EXIT PERMIT.
SIX MONTHS.
HERE I AM.
AND YOU'RE WITH ME.
I DON'T-
ANN,
THOSE PEOPLE.
MRS. CLIVEDEN-BANKS.
MR. CLIVEDEN-BANKS.
MISS MAXINE RUSSELL.
HENRY! THEY WERE
IN THE CAR.
THE RAID.
THEY WERE HIT, ALL OF THEM. I SAW IT.
OF COURSE.
DO YOU REMEMBER, ANN?
THE ROOM.
THE PHONOGRAPH.
YES, I REMEMBER!
THEY'RE DEAD...
AND SO ARE WE.
WE'RE SAILING.
BUT WHERE?
I DON'T KNOW.
ARE YOU AFRAID, DEAR?
NO.
TELL ME, DARLING...
ARE YOU SORRY?
NO...
I'M NOT.
YOU'RE COLD.
COME.
COME INSIDE.
ANN.
LOOK!
MY HANDS,
THEY ARE STEADY.
I CAN PLAY.
I CAN PLAY AGAIN.
OH, ANN,
THIS IS WHAT I WANTED-
A WORLD TO OURSELVES.
NO SLAUGHTER,
NO HATE AND HOUNDING,
NO BROWNSHIRTS,
NO BLACK SHIRTS.
ALL THE UGLY, TERRIBLE THINGS THA PEOPLE DO TO ONE ANOTHER SHUT OUT.
ALL THE UGLY,
TERRIBLE YEARS FORGOTTEN.
WHY, ANN...
THIS IS WHAT WE WANTED-
A WORLD IN WHICH
THERE WAS ROOM FOR MUSIC...
FOR LOVE.
YOU WEREN'T WORRIED
BEFORE, WERE YOU, DEAR?
IT WAS JUST THE COLD,
THE WIND.
YES, THE WIND.
OH, I'M GLAD, HENRY.
I'M NOT WORRIED.
IN PAIN OR DOUB OR ANYTHING ELSE
THAN ALONE BY MYSELF
IN THE SUNSHINE...
NO MATTER
WHAT COMES,
NO MATTER
WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN.
I SAY,
I'M FEELING AWFULLY ODD.
TIRED.
IT'S NO WONDER,
YOUR REVERENCE,
AFTER WHA WE'VE BEEN THROUGH.
YES, OH, YES.
THE EXCITEMENT,
EXHAUSTING.
IT'S FRIGHTFULLY SILLY
OF ME, MRS. MIDGET,
BUT I CAN'T SEEM
TO REMEMBER.
WHY, REVEREND, THERE
ISN'T MUCH TO REMEMBER.
IT'S JUST THE...
THE...
WHY...LET ME THINK
FOR A MOMENT.
I'M...SOMEHOW
ALL CONFUSED.
I- I DON'T KNOW WHY.
THE SUDDEN
CHANGE, SIR.
OF COURSE.
HOW STUPID OF ME.
THE SEA AIR.
THAT'S ALL IT IS.
I DO BELIEVE
I OUGHT TO GO TO MY CABIN
AND LIE DOWN FOR A BI BEFORE DINNER.
THERE'S PLENTY
OF TIME, SIR.
I WANTED TO STAY,
TO CHAT AWHILE...
BUT I'M TIRED...
VERY TIRED.
BENJAMIN.
OH, UH, YES.
I'M SORRY. I...
MUSIC.
I WISH
IT WOULD STOP.
OH, NO.
MUSIC LIKE THA
TAKES YOU BACK TO OTHER
TIMES, OTHER PLACES.
I DON'T KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE SAYING.
WELL,
IT'S SET ME THINKING.
THE DAYS WHEN I'D JUS COME BACK TO LONDON
FROM CAPE TOWN
THE SENSE OF EXCITEMEN I HAD THEN,
THE CONSTANT FEELING THA SOMETHING MILDLY WONDERFUL
WAS GOING TO HAPPEN TO
ME NEXT DAY, NEXT HOUR.
WHY, I NEVER HEARD YOU
TALK LIKE THIS BEFORE.
I NEVER KNEW YOU TOOK
ANY INTEREST IN MUSIC.
NEITHER DID I.
IT IS STRANGE, ISN'T IT?
ALL RIGHT, SO IT IS STRANGE
TO HEAR ME TALKING THIS WAY.
I DON'T KNOW
WHAT'S GOT INTO ME.
MAYBE I MEAN IT.
MAYBE WE COULD
BEHAVE OURSELVES
AND LIVE SOMEWHERE
LIKE HAPPY, DECENT PEOPLE.
MAXI, WHAT DO YOU SAY?
LET'S BREAK IT UP,
THAT'S WHAT I SAY.
IT'S A NICE,
SENTIMENTAL NUMBER,
AND A BAR'S ALWAYS
A SENTIMENTAL PLACE.
LISTEN, DARLING,
WHO ARE WE KIDDING?
WHO ARE YOU,
MR. ONE AND ONLY?
WHAT AM I,
GOLDILOCKS?
YOU'RE A BROKEN-DOWN
NEWSPAPERMAN
WHO DRINKS TOO MUCH.
ME? WELL, I'D BE THE FIRS LADY OF THE THEATER ONLY...
I'M THE
INTELLECTUAL TYPE.
I KNOW YOU,
AND YOU KNOW ME,
SO LET'S BOTH FORGE THE WHOLE THING.
PLEASE.
MAXI, YOU GET ME.
YOU DO THINGS TO ME
I DON'T UNDERSTAND MYSELF.
I SERIOUSLY THINK
IT MUST BE THE WAY
YOU PICK THOSE BITS OF
CIGARETTE PAPER OFF YOUR LIPS.
NOW, THAT'S NICE...
STYLISH.
WHEN YOU TALK LIKE THAT, I ADMIRE YOU.
MAKES A GIRL
FEEL GOOD.
MY DEAR LADY,
MY DEAR MYSTERIOUS LADY,
WOULD YOU DO ME
A BIG FAVOR
AND LET ME IN
ON A SECRET?
A COUPLE OF HOURS AGO,
YOU WERE BLUE.
WAS I?
YOU THOUGHT OF ALL THE RUSTY,
BACKSTAGE DRESSING ROOMS
YOU WERE GOING HOME TO.
YOU THOUGHT OF ALL THE 10-CEN JOBS YOUR AGENT GETS YOU.
I THINK YOU WOULD HAVE MARRIED
CHARLIE McCARTHY HIMSELF
IF HE'D HAVE ASKED YOU.
WHAT'S HAPPENED
TO YOU NOW?
GREETINGS!
I WANT TO SEE YOU.
YES, SIR?
ARE YOU THE ONLY STEWARD
ON THIS BOAT?
WELL, SIR,
YOU SEE-
YES, YES.
I KNOW, THE WAR.
I HAVE SOME OF
MY STAFF PEOPLE WITH ME.
FIND THEM AND SEND THEM
TO MY CABIN RIGHT AWAY.
I'M SORRY, SIR.
THEY'RE NOT ONBOARD.
YOU'RE WRONG.
THOSE MEN ARE HERE.
THE FACT OF
THE MATTER IS-
TAKE IT EASY. MR. LINGLEY
IS A BAD MAN TO CONTRADICT.
HE CAN GET YOU FIRED.
YOUR SECRETARY,
YOUR MASSEUR
WERE NEVER TAKEN
ONBOARD.
BY WHOSE ORDERS?
DO NOT ASK QUESTIONS,
REMEMBER?
YOU ARE TRAVELING UNDER
WARTIME CONDITIONS.
WHO STOPPED THEM?
WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE?
I WANT TO KNOW.
MAY I SAY, SIR, YOU WON'T NEED
YOUR MEN ON THIS SHIP.
WHO THE DEVIL
ARE YOU
TO TELL ME WHAT I NEED OR DON'T NEED?
NOW, IT DOES
SOUND STRANGE,
BUT BELIEVE ME, SIR,
I KNOW.
AH, BUT YOU DON'T.
MR. LINGLEY
REALLY NEEDS THEM...
FOR HIS
PEACE OF MIND.
YOU SEE, IT WASN' AN ORDINARY SECRETARY
OR AN ORDINARY MASSEUR.
THOSE MEN WERE HIS
PERSONAL BODYGUARDS.
WHY DON'T YOU MIND
YOUR OWN BUSINESS?
YOU KNOW NOTHING
ABOUT IT.
NOT TRUE, MR. LINGLEY.
I KNOW YOU.
IF I WERE YOU, I'D WAN A BODYGUARD, TOO-
A HUNDRED OF THEM.
A THOUSAND.
YES, I'VE GOT BODYGUARDS.
WHAT OF IT?
THERE'S A WAR GOING ON.
I'M MIXED UP IN
PRETTY BIG AFFAIRS-
WORLD AFFAIRS.
THERE ARE
ENEMY AGENTS AROUND.
YOU'RE A BIT BALLED UP,
MR. LINGLEY.
THE ENEMY'S GO NOTHING AGAINST YOU.
WHO ARE YOU?
CAPTAIN KIDD.
POPEYE THE SAILOR.
THE VOICE
WITH A SMILE.
WHAT DIFFERENCE?
COME OUT,
MR. LINGLEY.
WE KNOW YOU.
WE KNOW
YOUR LONG VIEW.
YOU'RE RUNNING AROUND
LIKE A WILD MAN,
GRABBING WHILE
THE GRABBING IS GOOD.
SHUT UP.
I'VE HEARD ENOUGH.
SHUT UP.
WHAT'S YOUR NAME?
IT'S NO USE TO YOU.
YOU COULDN' DO A THING TO ME.
I CAN'T, EH?
NO, BECAUSE YOU'VE
DONE IT ALREADY.
THE NAME IS PRIOR-
THOMAS PRIOR.
FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT.
WASHED-UP INTERNATIONAL EXPERT.
OH, THAT EXPLAINS IT.
WHY YOU'RE THE MAN
WHO CABLED
THOSE MUCKRAKING PIECES
ABOUT ME TO AMERICA.
THE SAME.
I OWE THIS
RETURN TRIP TO YOU.
YOU'RE THE SWEETHEAR
WHO PULLED ALL
THOSE MAGIC STRINGS
AND GOT ME FIRED.
NOTHING OF THE SORT.
INCOMPETENCE. YOU WERE
FIRED FOR INCOMPETENCE,
FOR DRUNKENNESS.
CHRONIC DRUNKENNESS,
MR. LINGLEY.
I WON'T STAND HERE
WASTING BREATH.
YOU'RE NOTHING BUT A HACK,
A TROUBLEMAKER.
IRRESPONSIBLE
TROUBLEMAKER.
RUNNING AWAY,
MR. LINGLEY?
WAIT A MINUTE.
I'LL HAVE SOMETHING.
STEWARD, SOME BRANDY.
TROUBLEMAKER.
TAKE A CARD.
HAVE A GOOD TIME,
DARLING?
EVERY MINUTE OF IT.
WHAT'S THE MATTER, DEAR?
DID I EMBARRASS YOU?
WAS I UNCOUTH?
WELL, LET'S NO FIGHT, DARLING.
YOU CAN'T GET SORE
AT EVERYBODY
THAT GETS YOU FIRED OR
DOESN'T WANT TO MARRY YOU.
DON'T TAKE IT OU ON ME.
O.K. FORGIVE ME.
I GOT A SENSE OF HUMOR
THAT SORT OF GETS
A LITTLE OUT OF HAND.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S
GOT INTO ME ANYHOW.
YOU FEEL ALL RIGHT?
SURE.
I'M JUST IN A FOG.
MY HEAD'S SPINNING
LIKE A YO-YO.
THE HURRY UP, THE PIER,
THE RACKET, THE SAILING.
THE SAILING.
WILL THERE BE
ANYTHING ELSE, SIR?
HUH? NO, NO.
WHAT DO I OWE YOU?
NO CHARGE, SIR.
WHAT?
JUST SIGN THIS.
OH.
WHAT DID YOU SAY?
WHAT, SIR? WHEN?
BEFORE TO LINGLEY.
YOU SAID YOU KNEW
HE WOULDN'T NEED
HIS MEN ON THIS BOAT.
WHAT DID YOU MEAN?
WHY, NOTHING, SIR.
JUST THAT HE HAD NOTHING
TO FEAR, THAT'S ALL.
I WAS JUST TRYING
TO ASSURE MR. LINGLEY
THAT HE REALLY DIDN'T NEED
BODYGUARDS ON THIS TRIP.
YES, BUT HOW
DID YOU KNOW
THEY WERE ACTUALLY
BODYGUARDS?
I SAW THE IDENTIFICATION
PAPERS.
WHAT IS IT, TOMMY?
WHAT ARE YOU WORKING
YOURSELF UP TO NOW?
FORGET IT. NOTHING.
ANYTHING WRONG?
WHERE ARE YOU GOING?
NO PLACE.
OUTSIDE ON DECK.
I WANT TO HAVE
A LOOK AROUND.
YOU DON'T WAN TO PAY ATTENTION
TO ANYTHING HE SAYS.
ANYTHING WHO SAYS?
YOU KNOW,
BRIGHT BOY.
HE'S REALLY
A GOOD-HEARTED KID,
JUST A LITTLE EXCITABLE.
HE'LL OUTGROW IT.
THEY ALWAYS DO.
DO YOU MIND?
NO. NOT AT ALL.
MY NAME'S
MAXINE RUSSELL.
I'M AN ACTRESS.
VERY INTERESTING.
YOU KNOW,
THE FRENCH SAY
THAT MEN CAN TELL AN ACTRESS
JUST BY LOOKING AT HER.
WAS IT TRUE IN MY CASE,
OR DIDN'T YOU EVEN
BOTHER TO NOTICE?
NATURALLY I NOTICED.
YOU MUST BE VERY TALENTED, MISS RUSSELL.
I COULD SAY THAT.
YES, IF I WANTED TO.
YOU PROBABLY HAVE
THOUSANDS OF ADMIRERS-
A HUGE DEVOTED FOLLOWING
WHEREVER YOU GO.
I COULD SAY THAT, TOO,
I SUPPOSE.
I GENERALLY DO.
BUT NOT TO YOU,
MR. LINGLEY.
HMM?
I COULD TELL YOU
ALL KINDS OF THINGS,
BUT WHAT'S THE USE?
WHO WOULD I BE FOOLING?
YOU SEE, I NEVER REALLY
GOT ANYPLACE ON THE STAGE
OR ANYWHERE ELSE
FOR THAT MATTER.
THAT'S AN ODD THING
TO SAY.
YOU'RE A MOST UNUSUAL
SORT OF WOMAN.
HEY, PLEASE, DON'T QUI ON MY ACCOUNT.
GO ON AND PLAY.
NO. I WAS
QUITE THROUGH.
I TAKE REAL ENJOYMEN IN GOOD MUSIC-
STUFF LIKE THAT.
SURPRISING, HUH?
I USED TO LAY ON THE BED
LISTENING TO THE RADIO
BY THE HOUR.
CONNIE, MY WIFE,
SHE ALWAYS HOLLERED AT ME,
"GET OFF THAT BED,
YOU BIG LUG.
"ONE OF THESE DAYS,
YOU'RE GOING TO GET STUCK
TO IT FOR GOOD."
HEY, LISTEN...
DID I INTRUDE?
NO, NO. IT'S
REALLY ALL RIGHT.
WHAT'S THE MATTER,
YOU NERVOUS?
THE SUBMARINES
GOT YOU WORRIED?
IT'S NOT THAT.
WELL, WHAT ARE YOU
WORRYING FOR?
COME HERE, JOE.
I'LL SHOW YOU SOMETHING.
THE HOHOKUS, SEE?
IT'S LUCKY.
O.K.
I'M SUPERSTITIOUS.
LAUGH, JOE, LAUGH.
ALL I KNOW IS
I'M A GUY
THAT WAS TORPEDOED
THREE TIMES-
THREE TIMES, AND HERE
I AM TO TELL THE TALE.
YES, SIR, THIS HOHOKUS
IS GOING TO TAKE ME
RIGHT BACK TO A CERTAIN
LITTLE PIER IN NEW YORK,
TO A CERTAIN LITTLE WIFE
NAMED CONNIE
WITH A CERTAIN LITTLE
SOMETHING IN HER ARMS.
WELL, FOR CRYING
OUT LOUD,
TALK. SAY SOMETHING.
YOU CAN TALK,
CAN'T YOU?
WHAT IS IT?
DON'T YOU...
DON'T YOU KNOW?
DON'T I KNOW WHAT?
DON'T YOU
REMEMBER ANYTHING?
WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?
THE RAID.
YEAH, YEAH,
THE RAID. SO WHAT?
WE GOT HERE ON TIME,
DIDN'T WE?
SPIT IT OUT.
I DON'T KNOW
HOW TO TELL YOU.
EXCUSE ME.
WON'T YOU ALL GO DOWN
TO DINNER NOW?
HEY, STEWARD?
YES, SIR?
ANSWER ME YES OR NO.
IS EVERYTHING O.K.?
WHAT, SIR?
WHY, CERTAINLY.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
NOTHING. NOTHING.
COME HERE. I WANT TO
SEE YOU ABOUT SOMETHING.
THAT COUPLE-
THEY'RE KIND OF NERVOUS.
COZY THEM ALONG.
MAKE THEM FEEL GOOD,
YOU KNOW, CHEERY.
I UNDERSTAND, SIR.
RELY ON ME.
O.K.
SO LONG, KIDS.
RELAX NOW.
JUST RELAX.
JUST LEAVE EVERYTHING
TO HOHOKUS,
AND IT'LL BE ALL RIGHT.
JUST RELAX.
I'M AFRAID YOU'VE
DISTURBED HIM, HENRY.
YOU SEE,
HE DOESN'T KNOW.
THE REST OF THEM,
THEY DON'T KNOW EITHER.
WHO ARE YOU?
THE STEWARD.
HOW DO YOU MEAN
"STEWARD"?
WHY, I'M HERE TO TAKE
CARE OF THEM AND YOU.
IT'S MY JOB.
WHY DON' THE OTHERS KNOW?
WHY DON'T THEY UNDERSTAND?
WE DID.
WELL, IT WAS DIFFEREN WITH YOU, WASN'T IT?
AFTER ALL,
YOU WERE FULLY AWARE
OF WHA YOU WERE DOING.
YES, IT'S TRUE...
BUT THE SAILOR,
THE OTHERS,
THEY THINK THEY'RE ALIVE
ON AN OCEAN VOYAGE.
WHY DON'T YOU
TELL THEM?
AND SHOCK THEM? THROW THEM INTO PANIC?
NO. THEY HAVE TO FIND OUT FOR THEMSELVES
IN THEIR OWN TIME,
IN THEIR OWN WAY.
THAT'S WHY
WE TAKE PAINS-
THEIR LUGGAGE,
EVERYTHING IN ORDER.
WE TRY TO
REASSURE THEM,
GIVE THEM NO SIGN.
BUT THAT'S NOT RIGHT,
NOT FAIR.
IT WILL BE KINDER
TO TELL THEM NOW.
I CAN'T.
I MUSTN'T.
THEN I WILL.
YOU WON'T, HENRY.
WHAT RIGHT HAVE YOU
TO STOP ME?
NONE. NONE AT ALL.
BUT YOU WON'T,
HENRY.
WON'T YOU JOIN
THEM ALL AT DINNER?
NO! NO!
I WISH YOU WOULD,
HENRY.
YOU WILL SEE HOW THINGS
ARE MANAGED HERE.
YOU MIGH EVEN HELP ME.
HELP YOU?
WHY DO YOU ASK ME
TO HELP YOU?
I DIDN'T.
I JUST THOUGH YOU MIGHT WANT TO.
TELL ME...
WILL YOU TELL ME
ONE THING NOW?
IF I CAN.
WHERE-WHERE ARE WE
SAILING FOR?
WHERE ARE YOU
SAILING FOR?
TO HEAVEN
AND TO HELL.
DOES THA SEEM STRANGE?
YOU'LL SOON UNDERSTAND, MY DEAR.
IN A WAY, THEY ARE REALLY
BOTH THE SAME PLACE.
HEY, WHAT ARE YOU
DOING HERE, HIDING OUT?
JUST SITTING.
WHY DON'T YOU GO
DOWNSTAIRS AND EAT?
WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID OF?
BUT I LIKE IT HERE
AT NIGHT.
EVERYONE LIKES A BI OF NATURE NOW AND THEN.
MESELF, I'VE ALWAYS
LIVED IN THE CITY,
BUT WHA I REALLY WANTED
WAS A COTTAGE BY THE SEA WITH A GARDEN-
A REGULAR GARDEN WITH
GERANIUMS AND ROSES.
YEAH.
TELL ME...
YOU'VE BEEN SITTING HERE
FOR SOME TIME,
HAVEN'T YOU?
I HAVE.
DID YOU SEE ANY OTHER
PASSENGERS AROUND HERE?
NO.
ANY OF THE, UH,
SHIP'S CREW,
OFFICERS, ANYBODY?
MY, YOU'RE VERY INQUISITIVE, AREN'T YOU?
HAVE YOU SEEN THEM?
WHY, NO, BUT WHY
SHOULD THAT DISTURB YOU?
WE SHOULDN'T BE ONES
TO FUSS AND FRE
OVER LITTLE THINGS,
SHOULD WE?
NOW, I KNOW
THE VERY THING
THAT WILL SET EVERYTHING
RIGHT FOR YOU AGAIN.
YOU DO? WHAT?
A GOOD HOT MEAL.
ISN' THAT THE TRUTH?
LADY, YOU GOT ME DOWN
TO A TEE.
YOU KNOW WHA I'M GOING TO DO?
I'M GOING TO MAKE YOU
TAKE ME DOWN TO DINNER.
NOW, I INSIST.
YOU'RE SENSITIVE,
YOU'RE SHY,
EASILY OFFENDED.
NOW CONFESS.
ISN'T IT SO?
MY GOODNESS, LADY.
YOU HIT I RIGHT ON THE HEAD.
YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES I GE TO FEELING SO SENSITIVE,
I COULD BUST OUT CRYING.
ONLY OF COURSE,
FUNDAMENTALLY,
I'M A JOLLY SWEET CUSS
BY DISPOSITION.
ALL RIGHT, LADY,
COME ON.
I'LL LET YOU MAKE ME
TAKE YOU DOWN TO DINNER.
PLEASE, HENRY,
STAY WITH ME ALONE.
YOU SAID I JUST A WHILE AGO.
A WORLD
ALL TO OURSELVES.
YOU SAID IT.
YES, I KNOW, BUT WHA CAN THEY DO TO US HERE?
HOW CAN
THEY HARM US?
THEY CAN STILL
SEPARATE US.
I LOVE YOU, DARLING.
YOU MUSTN'T BE
AFRAID.
I'M NOT AFRAID...
NOT WHEN I'M WITH YOU.
THAT'S MY GIRL.
MY ANN.
LOVE IN BLOOM.
HOW OLD ARE YOU?
EIGHT? NINE?
GOOD EVENING.
DON'T YOU EAT?
DON'T YOU HAVE TO
BOTHER WITH IT?
IS IT TOO SORDID?
IS IT TRUE WHAT THEY SAY,
HONEY?
IS IT TRUE?
THE WAY IT FEELS,
I MEAN.
IS IT ALL
IT'S CRACKED UP TO BE?
DOES IT PAY?
I IMAGINE
I WOULDN'T KNOW.
I...I DON'T-
NEVER MIND.
LET'S LET IT GO.
I'M JUST A SUCKER
FOR THE REAL THING
WHEN I SEE IT.
SHE'S UNHAPPY,
HENRY.
I LIKED HER.
DO YOU THINK SHE WOULD
DO YOU OR US ANY HARM?
I DON'T THINK SO.
DO YOU THINK
THE OTHERS WOULD?
I DON'T KNOW.
OH, ANN, COME
TO DINNER WITH ME.
YOU'LL SEE THERE'S
NOTHING TO BE AFRAID OF.
A TOAST. A TOAST.
THIS FEELS LIKE
A REGULAR OCCASION,
A BENEFIT.
I WISH I HAD BROUGH MY TUXEDO WITH ME.
I GOT ONE.
SOME CLASS.
THE WHOLE GRAND DINING SALOON
JUST TO OURSELVES.
A TOAST.
EVERYBODY LIFT UP
THEIR GLASSES.
EVERYBODY.
EVERYBODY! COME ON.
YOU CAN GET INTO THE SPIRIT,
CAN'T YOU?
O.K.
BUNCH OF SOURPUSSES.
THE MINUTE
I OPEN UP MY MOUTH,
SOMEBODY GIVES ME
A DIRTY LOOK. O.K.
DIDN'T GO SO WELL,
DID IT?
BENJAMIN?
EXCUSE ME.
YES, MY DEAR?
I WAS SAYING WE JUST MISSED MR. LINGLEY
LAST AUTUMN AT LADY
THORNTON'S, DIDN'T WE?
OH, DEAR. MR. LINGLEY,
YOU MUST FORGIVE ME.
I COULDN'T HELP
OVERHEARING
YOU'RE ON YOUR WAY
TO WASHINGTON.
SO ARE WE.
HOMES FOR BRITISH CHILDREN
OVERSEAS, YOU KNOW.

MY HUSBAND IS CHAIRMAN

ALL THOSE DEAR CHILDREN
DEPENDING ON US SO.
SPEAK UP.
SAY SOMETHING.
HMM?
ENTER INTO
THE CONVERSATION.
DON'T BE AFRAID.
DON'T WORRY
ABOUT ME, LADY.

GERANIUMS AND ROSES.
WHO'S
YOUR FRIEND?

TAKES A FRIENDLY
INTEREST.
THINKS I'M SHY.
YOU CERTAINLY GO A LOVELY MOPE ON.
YOU LOOK KIND OF DREAMY

MY STYLE.
HEY, THAT DRESS.
MAXI, WHAT GOES ON
BEHIND THOSE
GLITTERING EYES?
GO AWAY FROM ME,
DARLING.
TALK. TALK TO
YOUR FRIEND.
LEAVE ME ALONE.

LOVE IN BLOOM.
I'VE SEEN THEM BEFORE,
BOTH OF THEM.

"IN ANNOUNCING
THAT THE MERGER

AND PETE MUSICK
"HAS DECLARED
ITS FIRST DIVIDEND.
BETTY JO ANN.

CUTE, HUH?

DON'T I?
WHY DOES EVERYBODY HAVE TO KNOW
I GOT A WIFE AND KID?
INTIMATE
PERSONAL DETAILS.
LISTEN,
MY WIFE JUST BIRTHED.
I GOT A KID,
AND I NEVER EVEN SAW IT.
I CAN'T SIT. I CAN'T EAT.
I CAN'T DRINK.
I PESTER THEM.
I MAKE THEM GIVE ME
SPECIAL TRANSPORTATION PAPERS.
DAY AND NIGHT,
ALL THE TIME
I GO AROUND TALKING TO MYSELF,
TALKING TO MY WIFE.
HELLO, CONNIE.
CONNIE,
HOW DO YOU FEEL?
CONNIE, HOW'S THE KID?
DOES IT SMILE YET?
DOES IT LAUGH?
CONNIE, DOES IT RECOGNIZE
THE PEOPLE?
WELL, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD,
WILL SOMEBODY TELL ME
WHY I DON'T GE
A COAST-TO-COAST HOOKUP
AND BROADCAST IT OVER THE AIR?
NAW. I MONOPOLIZED
THE CONVERSATION LONG ENOUGH.
I YIELD THE FLOOR. O.K.
I'M SO SORRY I'M LATE.
I CAN'T FORGIVE MYSELF.
I FELL FAST ASLEEP.
IT'S NO INCONVENIENCE,
I ASSURE YOU.
OH, THANK YOU.
THANK YOU.
BUT IT'S NO ENTIRELY THAT.
YOU SEE, I'VE LOOKED FORWARD
SO TO DINNER FIRST EVENING OUT,
AND HERE EVERYONE'S
ALMOST FINISHED.
YOU DIDN'T MISS A THING,
REVEREND.
I JUST SHOT MY MOUTH OFF,
THAT'S ALL.
WHY, I REALIZE
YOU MUST BE WONDERING
ALL THIS FUSS I'M MAKING.
NOW, YOU'RE PEOPLE
OF THE WORLD.
YOU'VE TRAVELED,
BUT I, I'VE NEVER
LEFT MY PARISH.
THAT'S WHY THIS YEAR
I MADE UP MY MIND
I WAS GOING TO MAKE
THE TRIP TO AMERICA.
OUR ANNUAL CONVENTION
OF MINISTERS, YOU KNOW.
BECAUSE I WANT TO GO OU INTO THE WORLD AT LAST.
I WANT TO MEE ALL KINDS OF PEOPLE,
SEE THINGS, GET AWAY
FROM BOOKS AND DUST,
AND SO YOU SEE,
TO ME, EVERYTHING
ABOUT THIS TRIP
IS ADVENTURE.
IT'S ALL SO EXCITING.
IN REALITY, IT'S A
BRAND-NEW BEGINNING FOR ME,
AND I JUST WON'T LE A SINGLE MOMENT OF I
GO TO WASTE.
IS ANYTHING WRONG?
THAT'S ODD.
WHAT'S THE MATTER
WITH THEM NOW?
HEY, TOMMY, HOW DO
YOU FIGURE THAT?
ANN.
DEAREST.
THE WAY THEY TALKED-
THEIR LIVING HOPES
AND PLANS.
YOU AND I SITTING THERE
KNOWING ALL THE TIME...
WE WON'T SEE THEM AGAIN.
PROMISE ME, HENRY.
BUT, ANN, MY DARLING,
WHY?
BEG YOUR PARDON.
MY NAME'S LINGLEY.
I CAN USE YOU.
I'LL PAY YOU WELL...
IN ADVANCE.
50 FOR THE TRIP.
FOR WHAT?
I NEED A BODYGUARD.
A BODYGUARD?
I HAVE TO TAKE
PRECAUTIONS.
YOU KNOW HOW
TO HANDLE THIS.
YOU'RE A SOLDIER
DECORATED FOR BRAVERY.
THE STEWARD TOLD ME
ALL ABOUT YOU.
NO, NO. I'M SORRY.
IT'S IMPOSSIBLE.
100 POUNDS.
I CAN'T.
YOU MUSTN'T, HENRY.
YOU CAN'T DO IT.
COME AWAY.
MY DEAR MADAM,
500 IS A FORTUNE.
IT'LL SET YOU UP
IN NEW YORK.
YOU HAVEN'T THE RIGH TO REFUSE IT.
WILL YOU
TAKE THE MONEY?
JUST THINK IT OVER.
THAT'S ALL I ASK.
CONSIDER IT.
AH. THAT'S BETTER.
WHAT DO YOU WANT?
YOUR COFFEE IS SERVED,
SIR.
WHAT? ALL RIGHT.
I'LL HAVE IT NOW.
GIVE THE GUN
BACK TO HIM.
RETURN THE MONEY.
BUT WHAT DIFFERENCE
CAN IT MAKE?
IT'S ONLY FOR
A LITTLE WHILE.
THEY'LL ALL
SOON FIND OUT.
CAN'T YOU SEE?
DON'T YOU KNOW?
WITHOUT MEANING IT, YOU'RE BEING
DRAWN CLOSER AND CLOSER AMONG THEM.
YOU'RE HELPING
THE STEWARD.
OH, I'M SO AFRAID.
WHY, ANN? WE'VE DONE
NOTHING WRONG.
WHY SHOULD THEY
WANT TO PUNISH US?
BECAUSE WE'RE DIFFEREN
FROM THE OTHERS
ON THIS SHIP, HENRY.
WE TOOK OUR OWN LIVES.
WE'RE SUICIDES.
GIN...
RUMMY...
THE END OF THE GAME.
IT.
TAKE A CARD, PRIOR.
WHY DID YOU
HAVE TO COME HERE?
WHY DID YOU
HAVE TO SPY ON US?
BECAUSE I SHOULD
HAVE REMEMBERED
THE MINUTE I SAW YOU
ON THIS SHIP.
THEY TURNED YOU DOWN
IN THE STEAMSHIP OFFICE.
I SAW IT.
SURE. I SHOULD
HAVE REMEMBERED.
THE RAID. THE BOMB.
BUT YOU WEREN' TO KNOW.
NOT YET.
NOT THIS WAY.
DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
IT'S NO TRAGEDY.
THE SUN WILL RISE AND SE WITHOUT ME...
WITHOUT MY TWO CENTS.
BUT YOU MUS BE CAREFUL.
I ASK YOU TO REMEMBER THAT AT ALL TIMES.
PLEASE, HENRY, COME AWAY. LET'S LEAVE.
PROMISE ME YOU'LL DO
EVERYTHING YOU CAN.
I'LL ASK OF YOUR PROMISE
YOU'LL HELP.
WAIT A MINUTE.
WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?
HENRY, DON' ARGUE WITH HIM.
YOU'VE GO TO UNDERSTAND.
YOU MUST WATCH
EVERY WORD YOU SAY,
EVERYTHING YOU DO.
I DO WHAT I LIKE.
IT'S MY TRADEMARK.
NOBODY BOSSES ME.
BUT THIS IS DIFFERENT,
IMPORTANT.
YOU MUST THINK
OF THE OTHERS.
THE OTHERS?
WHAT ARE YOU DRIVING AT?
THEY STILL DON'T KNOW.
YOU MUSTN'T TELL THEM.
TELL THEM?
WHO, ME?
IS THAT WHAT'S WORRYING
YOUR LITTLE HEAD?
LISTEN, MISTER, WHY WOULD
I WANT TO SPILL THE BEANS
AND SPOIL THE FUN?
THIS IS GOOD.
THIS IS DELICIOUS.
WELL, YOU DON'T KNOW.
THIS IS WORTH DYING FOR.
TELL THEM?
WHY, THIS IS THE MOS GLORIOUS PRIZE PACKAGE
A GUY EVER GOT.
DID YOU ACTUALLY THINK
I WAS GOING TO CHUCK IT AWAY?
HA HA HA!
GO UP TO LINGLEY.
CATCH HIM QUICK.
HE'LL SIT DOWN WITH
THAT ACTRESS WOMAN.
ASK HIM HERE,
BENJAMIN.
A RUBBER OF BRIDGE,
ANYTHING.
STEWARD, I WANT YOU
TO FIX UP SOMETHING
FOR ME TONIGHT.
CHAMPAGNE, CAVIAR,
THE REST OF IT...
IN MY CABIN AROUND
MIDNIGHT FOR TWO.
THAT'S NOT NECESSARY.
TAKE IT. TAKE IT.
I ALWAYS PAY VERY WELL
FOR ANYTHING I WANT.
WHAT I WANT NOW
IS A CLOSED MOUTH.
JUST AS WELL IF NOBODY KNOWS ABOUT THIS.
THAT CLEAR?
AS YOU SAY, SIR.
QUICK! QUICK! HE'LL GO TO HER, BENJAMIN.
I WAS JUST TELLING
MY YOUNG FRIEND HERE,
WELL, FRANKLY,
I HAD MY MISGIVINGS.
I WAS AFRAID.
I DIDN'T KNOW HOW WELCOME
MY COMPANY MIGHT BE.
BUT WHY,
REVEREND, WHY?
WELL, THERE'S A SUPERSTITION,
YOU KNOW,
THAT CLERGYMEN
ARE UNLUCKY ONBOARD SHIP.
OH, THAT'S AN OLD
SUPERSTITION, PADRE,
QUITE OUT-OF-DATE.
REVEREND, REVEREND,
I LIKE YOU.
EVERYBODY LIKES YOU.
YOU'RE POPULAR.
OH, MR. LINGLEY,
WON'T YOU JOIN ME?
THANK YOU.
YES, OF COURSE.
FROM ALL APPEARANCES,
I'M AFRAID WE'RE IN
FOR A VERY DULL TRIP,
SO I'VE DECIDED WE MUS TRY AND AMUSE EACH OTHER.
WOULD YOU CARE FOR
A GAME OF BRIDGE?
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
PERHAPS LATER.
OH, NOT EVEN ONE
LITTLE RUBBER?
OH, COME,
MR. LINGLEY.
LET ME TRY
AND PERSUADE YOU.
ALTHOUGH, OF COURSE,
THERE IS THE MATTER
OF A FOURTH,
ISN'T THERE?
WE NEED
AN EXTRA PLAYER.
I WONDER IF-
EXCUSE ME, MA'AM,
FOR SPEAKING UP.
WHAT IS IT?
WHAT DO YOU WANT?
EXCUSE ME, BUT I HAVE A GOOD
SUGGESTION FOR YOU.
I THINK I COULD FIND
YOUR FOURTH, YOUR EXTRA PLAYER.
YOU CAN?
YOURSELF, PERHAPS?
OH, NO, MA'AM, NOT ME.
THE YOUNG GENTLEMAN.
MR. PRIOR.
I DON'T WANT TO HEAR
ANYTHING ABOUT HIM.
I'M NOT INTERESTED.
DO WE KNOW YOU?
MY NAME IS MIDGET.
MRS. MIDGET.
WHAT WOULD
A WOMAN LIKE YOU
BE GOING
TO AMERICA FOR?
MY OWN AFFAIRS, MA'AM.
MY REASONS. PRIVATE.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT I THINK, MR. LINGLEY?
I THINK THE WOMAN IS AN
INTERNATIONAL ADVENTURESS-
A SPY.
OH, NO, SIR.
IT'S NOT THAT.
DON'T BELIEVE A WORD OF IT.
IT'S NOT TRUE.
IT'S ALL RIGHT.
GO AWAY.
SHE DOESN'T MEAN IT.
THANK YOU, SIR.
I MAY NOT KNOW THE MANNERS
OF SOCIETY, MA'AM,
AND IF THEY'RE SUCH AS YOURS,
I DO NOT WANT TO,
WITH WHICH TERSE REMARKS
I SHUTS UP,
BEING SORRY
FOR ANYTHING I'VE SAID.
GROTESQUE.
GHASTLY.
I WEEP FOR YOU.
I DEEPLY SYMPATHIZE.
IT'S AN OUTRAGE
OUT-AND-OUT.
SIR, I BEG
YOUR PARDON?
FANCY. THINK OF IT,
A SHIP THAT'S ABSOLUTELY
UNRESTRICTED.
WHAT'S THE MAN
RANTING ABOUT?
I JUST FOUND IT OU MYSELF.
IT'S THE SAME WITH
EVERY SHIP ON THIS LINE.
UNRESTRICTED.
NO STEERAGE, NO CABIN,
TOURIST OR DELUXE.
WE ALL KNOW
PERFECTLY WELL
THIS IS
A ONE-CLASS BOAT.
THE WAR.
ONE CLASS THROUGHOUT.
AN OUTRAGE OUT-AND-OUT.
ALL MANNER OF HUMANITY
PUSHING IN WHERE
THEY'RE NOT WANTED-
TALL AND SHORT,
FAT AND LEAN,
FAIR AND DARK,
PINK AND GREEN.
COMPLAIN, MADAM.
COMPLAIN
TO THE MANAGEMENT.
ARE YOU TRYING
TO MAKE FUN OF ME?
MY DEAR MADAM,
IF I WERE MINUS A HEAD
AND YOU WERE
PLUS A HEART,
I WOULD ASK YOU
FOR A CONGA.
I'M NOT STAYING HERE
ANOTHER MOMENT.
I'M LEAVING.
GOING TO MY CABIN.
THEN, FAREWELL.
HEY, TOMMY BOY,
YOU'RE GOING
ALL-OUT.
THIS IS NO WAY
TO ACT.
LET IT LAY, MAXI.
I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING.
ONE MOMENT, MR. LINGLEY.
I HAVE A WORD FOR YOU-
IMPORTANT INFORMATION.
YOU WHOLE FINANCIAL CAREER'S
AT STAKE.
GO AWAY.
MR. LINGLEY,
THE STOCK MARKET'S CRASHED.
WHAT?
DOLLAR IS DOWN.
WHEAT IS UP.
BUY LONG, SELL SHORT.
ALL THE WORLD
LOVES A LOVER.
YOU AND YOUR
HOOLIGAN ANTICS.
LOOK HERE, PRIOR,
YOU'RE NO FOOLING ME.
I KNOW EXACTLY WHA YOU'RE UP TO AND WHY.
YOU DO?
YES. YOU'RE
A WORTHLESS DRUNK.
YOU DON'T OWN
A STICK OR A STONE.
YOU YAWP, YOU BLAME
THE WHOLE WORLD.
THINK
YOU'RE A CYNIC?
YOU'RE A FAILURE.
AND WHAT ARE YOU?
LINGLEY
OF LINGLEY LTD.
NOT EXACTLY.
IN YOUR TIME, YES-
A BIG MAN,
A HALF-BAKED LEGEND.
TODAY YOU'RE NOTHING
BUT AN ITEM
WITH A LOT OF
EXPENSIVE DENTAL WORK.
REST IN PEACE.
THAT'S SMART.
THAT'S VERY CLEVER.
MR. PRIOR,
YOU'RE A GENIUS.
I NEVER
SPENT MUCH TIME
IN MANUFACTURING
EPIGRAMS.
I NEVER WHINED.
I TOOK THE WORLD
AS I FOUND IT.
YOU CERTAINLY DID.
MY RUGGED FRIEND,
YOU'RE MAKING THINGS
VERY HARD ON YOURSELF
WHEN YOU FIND OUT.
FIND OUT WHAT?
THAT LIONS SOB
AND PENGUINS ROAR.
THE FROST CAME EARLY,
THE HARVEST, LATE.
DON'T YOU KNOW?
WE'VE BEEN BEWITCHED.
KINGS AND QUEENS
THIS YEAR
ARE WEARING CROWNS MADE
OF FIGS AND RHUBARB.
PAPER MEN ARE LETTING
PAPER MILLIONS
SLIP THROUGH
PAPER FINGERS.
MR. LINGLEY, THE COW
HAS JUMPED OVER THE MOON.
YOU'RE RAVING.
TAKE A CARD,
MR. LINGLEY.
GET OUT OF MY WAY.
HEY, JOE,
CAN I ASK A QUESTION?
WHAT ARE YOU
TRYING TO SELL?
TAKE A CARD.
WHAT'S THAT?
GO ON. TAKE A CARD,
ANY CARD.
SHOW IT AROUND.
GIVE IT TO
THE REVEREND.
BURY IT ANYPLACE
YOU WANT.
GIVE HIM
THE DECK.
SHUFFLE IT.
MIX THEM UP.
DO ANYTHING
YOU WANT.
GIVE THE DECK BACK
TO THE SAILOR.
PICK A CARD,
ANY CARD.
IS THAT THE CARD?
WELL, FOR CRYING
OUT LOUD.
MOST AMAZING.
VERY CLEVER.
HEY, MAXI, LOOK.
I GOT THEM GOING.
HEY, NO KIDDING.
HOW'D YOU DO IT?
IT'S A CINCH.
YOU'RE BLIND,
SEE?
WHAT'S THAT?
YOU DON'T SEE,
YOU DON'T HEAR.
ANYTHING THEY TELL YOU, YOU BELIEVE.
YOU NEVER KNOW
WHO'S CONNING WHO,
WHO'S GIVING
THE BUSINESS,
WHO'S GETTING IT.
YOU'RE LIVING
IN A TRANCE.
TAKE A CARD.
O.K.
HOLD ON TO A CORNER.
REVEREND, YOU HOLD ON
TO THE OTHER CORNER.
WELL,
WHAT HAPPENS NOW?
NOTHING. JUST HOLD ON.
IT'LL KEEP YOU
OUT OF MISCHIEF.
WHAT'S WRONG
WITH YOU?
WHAT'S EATING YOU?
DO I SURPRISE YOU,
MISS RUSSELL?
IS THIS SOMETHING
YOU DIDN'T EXPECT?
WELL, I-
WILL YOU HAVE SUPPER
WITH ME?
I'LL EXPLAIN.
JUST A MINUTE.
THE WAY YOU TALK,
I DON'T THINK
I REALLY KNOW
WHAT I'M GETTING
MYSELF INTO.
YOU WON'T REGRET IT,
ANY PART OF IT.
I KNOW ALL
THE THINGS YOU WANT.
YOU'LL HAVE THEM.
EVERYTHING.
YOU'RE VERY BLUNT,
MR. LINGLEY.
YOU CERTAINLY DON' GO OUT OF YOUR WAY
TO SPARE
A GIRL'S FEELINGS.
I DON'T CARE.
RIGHT NOW,
THE MAIN THING
IS TO UNDERSTAND
EACH OTHER PERFECTLY.
I DON'T GET IT.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?
YOU.
WHAT?
YES, YOU.
OH, NOT FOR JUST NOW.
NOT FOR JUST THIS TRIP.
FOR NEXT MONTH,
NEXT YEAR.
NO. NO, I DON' BELIEVE IT.
BECAUSE YOU ARE
WHAT I'VE WANTED.
MR. LINGLEY, I...
I DON'T BELIEVE
A WORD OF IT.
BECAUSE I NEED YOU.
DOES IT SURPRISE YOU,
MISS RUSSELL?
TO YOU,
TO THAT FELLOW PRIOR,
I'M A MILLIONAIRE,
A LABEL,
AN ABSTRACTION,
A CARTOON,
THE FAT MAN
IN THE TOP HAT.
THERE'S A LITTLE MORE
TO IT THAN JUST THAT.
I LIVE INSIDE MY BODY
JUST AS ANYBODY ELSE
LIVES INSIDE HIS.
AT NIGHT,
I SLEEP OR TRY TO.
BY DAY, I THINK
OR TRY NOT TO.
I CAN GROW HUNGRY,
FEEL COLD, ALONE.
YES. I NEED YOU.
I WANT YOU TO BE WITH ME,
TO LOVE ME.
BRAVO!
TOM!
LOOK HERE,
PRIOR.
DO I EMBARRASS YOU?
LET'S TALK ABOU THE WEATHER.
IT'S BEEN
A LOVELY EVENING.
WHY, YOU-
NO! PLEASE! LET ME
TALK TO HIM. LEAVE US.
I'VE HAD ENOUGH.
PLEASE LEAVE US.
LET ME HANDLE THIS
MY WAY.
LATER.
I'LL SEE YOU LATER.
YOU CAN DO ME DAMAGE.
START STORIES GOING,
COLUMNISTS, SOMETHING,
I DON'T KNOW.
YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO MAKE
A LITTLE TROUBLE FOR ME,
BUT, PRIOR, THIS
TIME I PROMISE YOU
THERE'LL BE
NO DOUBT ABOUT IT.
I'LL BREAK
YOUR BACK FOR GOOD.
BABY, I TAKE
MY HAT OFF TO YOU.
ARE YOU SORE, TOM?
SORE? NAW.
NOT AS LONG AS THEY
KEEP IT ALL SO FUNNY.
TOM,
I'M BEGGING YOU.
PLEASE. I KNOW
HOW YOU FEEL.
WE HAD GREAT TIMES
TOGETHER.
FUN. ALL RIGHT.
BUT THIS IS DIFFERENT.
DON'T GET SMART, TOM.
DON'T START ANYTHING.
DON'T SPOIL IT FOR ME.
WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?
SPOIL THINGS?
WHO, ME?
DARLING, GO AHEAD. I WOULDN' STOP YOU FOR THE WORLD.
LISTEN, YOU'VE GO TO UNDERSTAND IT,
WHAT IT MEANS TO ME.
BABY, I LOVE YOU.
GO RIGHT AHEAD.
I WISH YOU
EVERY HAPPINESS.
LISTEN TO ME.
I MADE THIS TRIP
TO ENGLAND.
YEAH, THE USO TO ENTERTAIN THE SOLDIERS.
I FIGURED IT MIGHT HELP
- GIVE ME A BOOST.
WELL, IT WORKED,
DIDN'T IT?
LIKE A CHARM.
I GOT ANN SHERIDAN
SITTING UP NIGHTS
WORRYING HER HEAD
OFF ABOUT ME.
TOM, I'M NOT 17.
LOOK AT IT MY WAY.
THIS IS BIG.
IT'S EVERYTHING I'VE
EVER DREAMED ABOUT-
HOTELS AND CARS
AND CLOTHES
AND WAITERS RUNNING
TO ME BOWING.
I'VE GOT I IN MY HANDS.
LOOK AT IT MY WAY.
WHAT DO YOU
WANT ME TO DO?
THROW IT ALL AWAY
ON ACCOUNT OF YOU?
DON'T MAKE ME LAUGH.
LISTEN, YOU OR NO ONE
CAN MEAN THAT MUCH TO ME.
YOU AND NO ONE ELSE
IS GOING TO STOP ME.
O.K., MAXI. LET'S
LET IT GO AT THAT.
I'M YOUR FRIEND.
I'M NOT MAKING TROUBLE.
THANKS.
TELL ME, DARLING,
ONE THING.
ARE YOU SURE?
MAYBE YOU'RE JUS KIDDING YOURSELF,
PUTTING IN A LOT OF TIME
AND WORK FOR NOTHING.
THIS IS
NO RUNAROUND.
IT'S GOING TO LAST.
NOT FOR JUS THIS TRIP,
FOR MONTHS,
FOR YEARS.
BELIEVE ME, I KNOW.
YOU KNOW...
ALL THE ANSWERS,
ALL THE TRICKS.
CUT IT OUT, TOM.
DON'T GET FUNNY.
I NEVER COULD GET OVER
THE WAY LITTLE GIRLS
IN NICE,
WHITE MIDDY BLOUSES
GREW UP TO BE
SO SURE, SO WISE.
OH, RIGHT. I'M WISE.
I LEARNED A LOT.
SO WHAT?
YOU'RE AN EXPERT...
AND YOU'VE GO FIRST-CLASS APPEAL.
WHAT ELSE DID I HAVE
WHEN I STARTED?
WHAT'S THE MATTER,
DON'T YOU APPROVE?
GETTING FUSSY
IN YOUR OLD AGE?
THAT'S THE WAY
THE WORLD GOES.
YOU KNOW A BETTER WAY?
THEN TELL ME.
ALL I'M ASKING YOU
IS ARE YOU SURE?
WILL IT WORK?
IT ALWAYS WORKS.
WHAT'S THE MATTER
WITH YOU ANYWAY?
FOOL.
FOOL. I'M SORRY FOR YOU.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
WHERE DO YOU GET OFF
FEELING SORRY FOR ME?
GET OUT OF HERE.
GO ON.
GO AND BUY A TICKE FOR A TRIP TO THE MOON.
GO ON. BEAT IT!
CRAZY.
EVER SINCE YOU GO ON THIS BOAT...
CRAZY!
OH, MR. PRIOR, WE'VE
BEEN WAITING FOR YOU.
THE REVEREND'S GOT A
GREAT IDEA, JOE. LISTEN.
I THINK THAT EVERYBODY
OUGHT TO BE KEEN.
THIS TRIP WE MUST ORGANIZE
AMONGST OURSELVES.
WE MIGHT HAVE DECK GAMES,
A TREASURE HUNT.
THAT SHOULD BE
VERY JOLLY.
AND FOR TONIGHT,
OUR FIRST NIGHT OUT,
WHAT DO YOU THINK
ABOUT A SHIP'S CONCERT?
GLORIOUS.
DOUBLE SCOTCH.
YES, SIR.
AT ONCE.
OH, BUT, MR. PRIOR,
WE NEED YOU.
WON'T YOU
OBLIGE US ALL
WITH AN EXHIBITION
OF SLEIGHT OF HAND?
HE MEANS
THE CARD TRICKS.
IT'S O.K. HE'LL DO IT,
WON'T YOU, JOE?
GO AWAY FROM ME.
I'M BUSY.
OH, PLEASE.
PERHAPS IT'S ALL
FOR THE BEST, SIR.
IT IS THE FIRS NIGHT OUT.
I'M SURE MR. PRIOR
WISHES TO RETIRE EARLY.
YEAH? WHO TOLD YOU
ALL ABOUT IT?
THE STEWARD
ONLY ASSUMED.
IT'S GROWING LATE.
HE TOOK THE LIBERTY.
HELLO. HOW ARE YOU?
TELL ME, WHO ASKED HIM
TO GO AROUND ASSUMING,
TAKING LIBERTIES?
MAYBE I THINK
THE REVEREND'S GO
A WONDERFUL IDEA
THERE.
PRIOR, STOP IT.
I WARN YOU. BE CAREFUL.
JUST A MINUTE.
STOP WHAT?
GO ON. TALK.
TELL THEM ALL.
WHAT DO YOU WANT ME
TO BE SO CAREFUL ABOUT?
I'M SO SORRY. I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
I MERELY THOUGH IT WOULD BE NICE
IF MR. PRIOR
ENTERTAINED US.
SURE I'LL GIVE A SHOW.
PETE, GATHER UP ALL
OUR LITTLE SHIPMATES.
MAKE THEM SHOW UP,
EVERY ONE OF THEM.
THEY'LL BE THERE,
EVERY ONE.
JUST LEAVE IT TO ME.
I'LL GIVE A SHOW,
ALL RIGHT-
THE GREATEST SHOW
ON LAND OR SEA.
THRILLS, CHILLS,
THE BITTER GLAMOUR
OF THE HEAVENLY
PANORAMA-
THE KIND OF A SHOW YOU
SEE ONCE IN A LIFETIME.
DO YOUR BEST FRIENDS REFUSE
TO LET YOU DOUBLE-CROSS THEM
ANY LONGER?
WHEN YOU READ IT BACKWARDS,
DOES IT SPELL I LOVE YOU?
IS YOUR TELEPHONE COY
THESE DAYS?
WHEN YOU SAY STOP,
DOES YOUR BEAU TAKE YOU
AT YOUR WORD AND STOP?
ARE YOU LONELY?
NOT YOU.
MADAM HAS ANOTHER DRESS.
MY CONGRATULATIONS.
DO YOUR DAYDREAMS BORE YOU?
MY FRIENDS,
THIS IS THE PLACE.
THIS IS THE TIME.
ARE YOU SKEPTICAL?
DO YOU TAKE ME FOR A QUACK?
NEVERTHELESS, I PROMISE YOU
BEFORE THE PERFORMANCE IS OVER,
ALL OF YOUR PROBLEMS
WILL BE SOLVED.
YES, FOLKS, I SAID ALL.
I'LL SOLVE THEM ALL
OR DOUBLE YOUR MONEY BACK.
THE CARDS.
THE CARDS.
SHOW THEM
THE TRICKS.
RIGHT YOU ARE, SIR.
THE ARTIST IS READY
TO PROCEED
BUT REQUIRES
THE ASSISTANCE
OF A MEMBER
OF THE AUDIENCE.
AHA!
YOU'RE JUST IN TIME.
STEP UP.
PRIOR. PRIOR!
GO ON. DO IT.
DO IT.
IT'S ALL IN FUN.
THANK YOU, FRIEND.
THANK YOU.
AND NOW, SIR,
KINDLY HAND IT OVER-
THAT KING'S RANSOM.
THE MONEY YOU HAVE
IN YOUR POCKET.
PRIOR, SEND THEM AWAY.
FINISH IT OFF.
YOU'VE GONE FAR ENOUGH.
WHAT'S THAT?
SPEAK UP.
WHAT'S THAT?
OH, THE GENTLEMAN SAYS THE MONEY
IS IN HIS INSIDE COAT POCKET.
WHY, THANK YOU.
THANK YOU.
UH, PETE, IS THIS
REAL MONEY?
YOU BET YOUR
SWEET LIFE IT IS.
I- I WISH
IT WAS MINE.
PUT IT IN
THE BOWL THERE.
KINDLY OBSERVE CLOSELY.
GEE! GREAT!
WHAT DID I TELL YOU?
SEE? I DIDN'T DRAG YOU
IN HERE FOR NOTHING.
THANK YOU.
AND NOW TO THE NEXT.
I NEED ANOTHER VOLUNTEER.
WAIT.
WHERE'S
THE REAL MONEY?
AH! MR. LINGLEY.
WELCOME HOME.
THE MENTION
OF MONEY, I SEE,
ROUSES YOU FROM YOUR
DAFFODILS AND VIOLETS,
FROM YOUR SWEET DREAMS
OF ROMANCE.
BUSINESS BEFORE PLEASURE,
EH, MR. LINGLEY?
WHERE'S THE MONEY?
THERE. BURNED. YOU
WATCHED ME, DIDN'T YOU?
AND NOW I NEED
ANOTHER VOLUNTEER.
WELL, YOU, MR. LINGLEY.
YOU'LL DO JUST FINE.
I INSIST UPON SEEING
THAT MONEY AGAIN.
SIR, THE MOVING THING
A- WRITES,
AND HAVING WRI GETS A MOVE ON.
MR. LINGLEY, WHAT ARE YOU
GUMMING UP THE WORKS FOR?
THE SHOW MUST GO ON.
WILL YOU VOLUNTEER?
I NEED YOU.
NONSENSE.
IDIOTIC NONSENSE.
ARE YOU AFRAID?
WHAT?
DO IT.
DO WHAT HE SAYS.
MR. LINGLEY,
ARE YOU AFRAID OF ME?
THANK YOU.
WILL YOU STAND THERE,
PLEASE?
OPEN YOUR COAT.
THAT'S FINE.
EXCUSE ME.
THINK, PRIOR, THINK. DON' GO ON WITH IT. FINISH IT NOW.
THANK YOU, SIR.
YOU'RE MOST KIND.
I'LL BORROW THIS
JUST FOR A MINUTE.
BERGNER, TAKE THAT GUN BACK.
IT'S LOADED.
KINDLY CLEAR
THE STAGE.
SURE, SURE.
COME ON, COME ON.
THANK YOU.
BE CAREFUL
WITH THAT GUN!
IT'S A REAL GUN?
YOU'D TESTIFY TO THAT?
AND THOSE ARE
REAL BULLETS, TOO!
I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF THIS!
STAND STILL!
YOU'RE NOT AFRAID OF ME, MR.
LINGLEY. YOU JUST SAID SO.
YOU HAVEN'T THE NERVE.
YOU THINK NOT,
MR. LINGLEY?
YOU WOULDN'T DARE!
MR. LINGLEY, WOULD
ANY JURY CONVICT ME?
I'D PLEAD
COMPLETE SANITY.
STAND STILL!
STOP IT! DO YOU HEAR
ME? STOP IT! STOP IT!
STOP IT I SAY!
BERGNER!
BODYGUARD-BERGNER!
OHH!
HOW DID YOU DO THAT?
SIMPLE.
HOW?
YOU SEE, YOU WERE DEAD
IN THE FIRST PLACE.
THE FACT IS
WE'RE ALL DEAD.
ALL OF US-DEAD PEOPLE.
THE MIND OF MAN.
ALL YOUR LIVES YOU BELIEVED
ONLY WHAT YOU WANTED TO BELIEVE.
YOU SAW ONLY WHA YOU WANTED TO SEE.
GO ON. DUCK IT NOW.
LET ME SEE YOU TRY.
RUN AWAY FROM IT.
YOU'RE DEAD, YOU BOOBS!
DEAD, DEAD, DEAD!
DON'T YOU SEE ANYTHING?
DON'T YOU NOTICE?
WE'RE THE ONLY PEOPLE
ONBOARD-
NO CAPTAIN, NO CREW,
NOTHING.
HAVE YOU SEEN ANYTHING
OF THE REST OF THE CONVOY?
YOU DON'T NEED A CONVOY THESE DAYS,
NOT WHEN THE SHIP IS FASTER THAN A SUB.
STOP KIDDING YOURSELF.
YOU'RE A SAILOR, MUSICK.
YOU KNOW BETTER!
THIS WHOLE BOAT IS SHINING
LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE!
HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF
A SHIP THESE DAYS
SHOWING THEIR LIGHTS
ON THE ATLANTIC?
O.K., ENOUGH. LISTEN,
I DON'T LIKE IT ANYMORE.
THE SHOW IS OVER!
NOW QUIT IT!
EVERYBODY GO BACK
TO THEIR CABINS!
YOU'RE PERFECTLY RIGHT.
WE'RE LEAVING AT ONCE.
RIDICULOUS.
THE SHOW IS OVER.
WHAT ARE YOU
STANDING HERE FOR?
THE TWO OF THEM
OVER THERE-
WHY DON'T YOU
ASK THEM? THEY KNOW.
NO. NO.
THEY DIDN'T COME
ONBOARD WITH US.
THEY KNEW FROM THE STAR
BECAUSE THEY WEREN' HIT BY A BOMB,
BECAUSE THEY
KNEW WHAT TO EXPECT,
BECAUSE THEY WERE SUICIDES.
GO ON. ASK THEM.
FORGIVE ME,
IT'S ALL SO FANTASTIC,
BUT IS IT WHAT HE SAYS?
IS IT TRUE?
NO. NO, DON'T LISTEN.
IT'S ALL A MISTAKE.
NO, HENRY.
IT'S NO USE NOW.
IT'S TOO LATE.
THEY MIGHT AS WELL KNOW NOW.
CONFOUND YOU! WE DON' WANT ANY MORE MYSTERIES.
MR. LINGLEY, PLEASE, I THINK
WE SHOULD ALL KEEP OUR TEMPERS.
TELL ME, STEWARD,
IS THIS SHIP...
IS THIS WHA IT'S ALWAYS LIKE?
SIR, THE PASSENGERS
DON'T FIND OUT SO QUICKLY
AS A RULE.
THEN IT'S TRUE?
TRUE?
THAT WE'RE DEAD, SIR?
YES. QUITE TRUE.
BUT BELIEVE ME, SIR,
THERE'S NOTHING HERE TO BE
FRIGHTENED OF IN THE LEAST.
AND ALL
MY NEW RESOLUTIONS...
TO GO OUT INTO THE WORLD...
THE CONVENTION...
TO WORK REALLY AMONG
THE PEOPLE IN MY PARISH...
A NEW WORK...
A NEW BEGINNING FOR ME...
I HAD IT.
I THOUGHT I HAD I IN MY TWO HANDS-
HOTELS, WAITERS
RUNNING TO ME BOWING.
THEY CAN'T DO IT!
NOT TO ME!
IT'S NOT RIGHT.
IT'S NOT FAIR.
I WAS TORPEDOED
THREE TIMES.
I WENT THROUGH
EVERYTHING.
I'M LUCKY.
HERE, I GOT IT!
THE HOHOKUS RIGHT HERE.
PLEASE TRY. THERE IS NO USE FIGHTING IT.
NOT NOW.
NO! NO! IT'S A GYP! I'M NOT GOING
TO LET THEM GET AWAY WITH IT.
IT'S DONE.
IT'S OVER.
YOU MUST RESIGN
YOURSELF.
AH, GET OUT OF HERE.
GET AWAY FROM ME.
IT'S OVER.
RESIGN MYSELF...
WHAT DO YOU KNOW?
WHAT DOES
IT MEAN TO YOU?
ALL THE THINGS
I'M GIVING UP,
THINGS I'LL
NEVER SEE AGAIN.
AH, GET OUT OF HERE.
LEAVE ME ALONE.
WE MUST DO SOMETHING,
HIRE THE BEST BRAINS,
THE RIGHT MEN FOR THE JOB.
I'LL PAY ANY SUM.
REVEREND, LISTEN TO ME.
I'VE BEEN THINKING
OF IT FOR SOME TIME.
I WANT TO MAKE
A DONATION-100,000.
LISTEN, I'LL GIVE YOU
A MILLION.
NO, NO, MR. LINGLEY.
WE MUST DO SOMETHING.
BUT THERE'S NOTHING
TO BE DONE, SIR.
I MUST GET OUT OF THIS!
I MUST!
THAT'S WHAT ALL OF THEM
START BY SAYING, SIR.
BUT BELIEVE ME,
IT'S IMPOSSIBLE.
THE ONLY THING
YOU CAN DO NOW
IS JUST GO ON AS THOUGH
NOTHING HAS HAPPENED.
VERY SIMPLE.
YES, SIR. SIMPLE.
ONCE YOU MAKE UP
YOUR MIND TO IT,
YOU'LL FIND EVERYTHING
QUITE SIMPLE, QUITE NATURAL
UNTIL IT COMES
TO THE EXAMINATION.
WHAT EXAMINATION?
WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?
IS THERE AN EXAMINER?
A PERSON WHO COMES
AND ASKS YOU THINGS?
IN A MANNER OF SPEAKING, MA'AM, YES.
QUESTIONS...HE'LL ASK
ALL SORTS OF QUESTIONS.
WE SHALL BE JUDGED...
BALANCE SHEET,
THE RECKONING.
OF COURSE. HE'LL SET US
UPON OUR DIFFERENT ROADS...
FOR ETERNITY.
MY DEAR, THAT DRESS YOU HAVE ON
- YOU BETTER CHANGE.
IT WON'T DO, NO FOR THE EXAMINER.
I DON'T CARE
ABOUT THE EXAMINER.
I'M NOT GOING
TO SEE HIM.
OH, BUT YOU MUST,
MY DEAR.
HE'LL MAKE YOU SEE HIM
IN SPITE OF YOURSELF.
HE WILL? THEN LET HIM.
YOU THINK THIS DRESS
IS SOMETHING?
I'VE GOT A LITTLE NUMBER
DOWNSTAIRS IN MY TRUNK
THAT WILL KNOCK
HIS EYE OUT.
THE EXAMINER!
WHAT DO I WANT HIM FOR?
WHAT CAN HE DO FOR ME?
WHAT CAN HE BRING BACK?
WELL, WHA ARE WE TO DO?
WHAT? WHAT?
I DON'T KNOW,
REALLY.
NOTHING.
I KNOW.
I WANT A PRAYER.
A PRAYER?
YES. WE'RE IN
THE NIGHT, AREN'T WE?
WE'RE HELPLESS.
WE'RE LOST.
PLEASE, YOUR REVERENCE, IF YOU WILL...
MY PRAYERS?
I'VE LEARNED SO MANY OF THEM,
MEMORIZED THEM ALL,
AND YET NOW, HERE,
NONE OF THEM SEEMS TO FIT.
YOU OUGHT TO PRAY FOR
US, YOUR REVERENCE.
IT'S YOUR DUTY.
YOU THINK SO?
FORGIVE ME THEN,
FOR I CAN'T.
WAIT...
YES, THERE IS ONE...
ONE THAT MEAN SO VERY MUCH TO ME,
THAT WAS TRUE.
GENTLE JESUS,
MEEK AND MILD,
LOOK UPON A LITTLE CHILD.
CHILDREN,
PARDON OUR SIMPLICITY,
SUFFER US TO COME TO THEE.
GOD BLESS FATHER AND MOTHER,
HARRIET-SHE WAS MY NURSE-
ALL KIND FRIENDS
AND MAKE ME A GOOD BOY.
AMEN.
THAT'S IT, HENRY. THAT'S
IT. YOU'RE DOING FINE.
THE TABLES
ARE ALL MOVED.
THE CHAIRS ARE IN PLACE.
THE ROOM HAS BEEN PREPARED.
YES.
EVERYTHING IS READY.
WHAT IS IT, ANN?
YOU'RE STARING
AT ME.
THE LOOK
ON YOUR FACE...
IT'S NOTHING, HENRY,
NOTHING.
IS IT BECAUSE I'M
HELPING THE STEWARD?
THAT IS STRANGE.
I'M HELPING HIM.
I DON'T KNOW
WHY MYSELF.
IT JUST SEEMS SO...
SO NATURAL,
SO RIGHT.
YOU MUSTN'T WORRY,
DEAR.
I DIDN' SOMEHOW BEFORE.
BUT NOW I'M SO...
SO UNCERTAIN.
MY MIND IS FULL OF ALL
SORTS OF VAGUE FEARS,
PREMONITIONS,
REGRETS.
WHY, HENRY, WHY?
I DON'T KNOW.
SEEING THEM ALL
FIGHTING SO HARD,
WANTING WITH ALL THEIR
MIGHT TO HOLD ON TO LIFE,
A LIFE
I TOSSED ASIDE,
A LIFE I MADE YOU
THROW AWAY, TOO.
NO, DEAR, YOU DIDN'T.
I WANTED THAT.
I WANTED
TO GO WITH YOU.
STEWARD.
YES, MA'AM?
HOW MANY TIMES HAVE
YOU MADE THIS TRIP?
HOW MANY TIMES?
OH, 5,000, 10,000.
TRIPS
WITHOUT NUMBER.
WITHOUT NUMBER...
I WAS LOST YOUNG,
YOU SEE.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN
LOST YOUNG?
TELL ME.
PLEASE TELL ME.
HOW DID YOU DIE?
IT'S TIME, HENRY.
THAT'S THE LAUNCH-
THE EXAMINER.
HE'LL BE HERE
IN A MOMENT.
IF YOU PLEASE,
WILL YOU ALL TAKE SEATS?
THANK YOU.
VERY GOOD OF YOU.
I READ A GREA EPITAPH ONCE.
I'M GOING TO
STEAL IT FOR MYSELF.
SIR?
HERE LIES PRIOR,
DIED A BACHELOR-
WIFELESS, CHILDLESS.
WISHED HIS FATHER
HAD DIED THE SAME.
SIR, I'M SO
DEEPLY TROUBLED.
WHY, YOU'LL BE
ALL RIGHT, MADAME.
OH, IT'S NOT ME. IT'S
THE YOUNG ACTRESS LADY.
SHE WON'T COME UP.
SHE WON'T EVEN
LET ME TALK TO HER.
THERE'S
NO NEED TO WORRY.
MRS. MIDGET, WHY
DON'T YOU SIT HERE?
YES, WITH US,
DEAR MRS. MIDGET.
HAPPY DAYS.
PLEASE, PLEASE,
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
LISTEN, NOW THA WE'RE ALL TOGETHER,
WHILE THERE'S
STILL A MOMENT-
WHAT'S THAT?
THE LAUNCH, SIR.
IT'S APPROACHING THE SHIP.
QUICK, THEN, I'VE
THOUGHT OF A PLAN,
A METHOD
OF PROCEDURE.
YOU MEAN, YOU'RE GOING TO
SLIP THE GUY A COUPLE OF BUCKS?
OH, PLEASE.
IT'S ALL IN THE WAY
A THING'S APPROACHED.
I'VE DEALT WITH BIG
PEOPLE ALL MY LIFE.
I SUGGEST...
WITH YOUR PERMISSION, THAT I
REPRESENT YOU, SPEAK FOR US ALL.
EXCELLENT.
IT WILL SAVE TROUBLE,
UNNECESSARY PRYING.
THANK YOU.
THE REST OF YOU
NOW-SOMEBODY-
MR. MUSICK,
DO YOU AGREE?
LET ME ALONE.
I GOT NOTHING TO SAY.
REVEREND.
RUBBISH, LINGLEY.
UNDIGNIFIED, UNHOLY RUBBISH.
WHAT ARE YOU TRYING
TO DO, LINGLEY?
HIDE YOUR OWN SINS?
LOSE YOURSELF IN A CROWD?
THAT'S EASY
FOR YOU TO SAY.
YOU DON'T CARE WHA HAPPENS TO YOU.
YOU'VE NOTHING
TO LOSE!
YOU NEVER HAD ANYTHING
IN THE FIRST PLACE!
THE ADVANTAGES
OF A MISSPENT LIFE.
YOU HEAR THAT, LINGLEY?
IT'S LATE,
LATER THAN YOU KNOW-
DOGS BARK, CHILDREN SCREAM,
MOTHERS WEEP.
THIS IS THE JUDGMENT DAY.
WHAT'S THE USE OF HITTING
YOUR HEAD AGAINST THE WALL?
I'M AFRAID.
I'M NOT.
YOU, TOO, BOY.
NO, NO,
HE SAID IT FOR ME.
I GOT NOTHING TO LOSE.
RED ROVER, RED ROVER,
LET LINGLEY GO OVER.
I GOT NO WORRIES.
NO, YOU FEEL THE SAME
AS THE REST OF US,
FOR ALL YOUR
LIVELY CHATTER.
I'M NOT AFRAID.
QUIET!
STAND UP!
EVERYBODY, STAND UP!
HELLO, HELLO, HELLO!
SIT DOWN. DON'T BE EXCITED.
REST EASY.
HELLO, SCRUBBY.
REMEMBER HOW I USED TO COUGH TO
LET THEM KNOW I WAS COMING IN,
BUT IT ONLY FRIGHTENED
THEM ALL THE MORE?
WHERE'S BERNIE?
GOOD...
WELL, IT'S THOMPSON.
TIM THOMPSON.
HOW ARE YOU, BERNIE? I
SAW YOUR NAME ON THE LIST.
TIM THOMPSON
SAME AS EVER.
LOOKING LIKE
A CHARACTER
THAT STEPPED RIGHT OU OF THE MIDDLE AGES, EH?
OH, YES. FERGUSON
SAID THAT ABOUT YOU.
WHAT DID YOU SAY? "LE HIM GO RIGHT BACK."
DID I SAY THAT?
YOU CERTAINLY DID.
GLUM LOT, AREN' YOU? CHEER UP.
NOBODY WANTS
TO BITE YOU.
WELL,
HOW IS FERGUSON?
WHAT? OH, YES.
HE'S BEEN MADE A BISHOP.
UH, HE WOULD.
WHAT BECAME OF MALTBY?
TELL ME EVERYTHING.
I'M BURSTING FOR NEWS.
TIM...THOMPSON,
OF COURSE, I'M VERY
GLAD TO SEE YOU,
BUT WE'LL-WE'LL
TALK AFTERWARDS,
BECAUSE RIGHT NOW
YOU JUST CAN'T IMAGINE
HOW TERRIBLY UPSET I AM.
UPSET?
UPSET ABOUT WHAT?
WELL, THIS PERSON
- WHOEVER IT IS WHO'S COMING TO EXAMINE US.
THE EXAMINER? OH,
DON'T WORRY ABOUT HIM.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
I'M THE EXAMINER.
YOU? YOU'RE
THE EXAMINER?
A NOBODY. AN ANTISOCIAL NOBODY.
THAT MAN PROBABLY NEVER
EARNED MORE THAN 300 A YEAR.
I KNOW HOW TO
HANDLE THAT SORT.
THOMPSON-
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.
YOU'RE THE EXAMINER.
WELL, I'M ONE
OF THEM ANYWAY.
WE'VE GOT DOZENS
ON THE JOB.
NOW LOOK HERE, BERNIE,
I'M GOING TO TELL YOU RIGH OFF YOU'VE GOT TO CHANGE.
CHANGE?
YES. ADJUST YOURSELF.
YOU'VE GOT TO GET OU AND AROUND UP HERE,
SEE THINGS, MEET ALL
KINDS OF PEOPLE, KNOW THEM,
MINGLE WITH THEM
EVERY MOMENT OF THE DAY.
THOMPSON,
THOMPSON...
ARE YOU TELLING ME I
HAVEN'T LOST MY JOB?
OF COURSE
YOU HAVEN'T LOST IT.
YOU HAVEN'T STARTED IT.
SEE THINGS, MEE ALL KINDS OF PEOPLE,
MINGLE WITH THEM.
THANK YOU.
OH, THANK GOD.
A NEW WORK, A NEW
BEGINNING AFTER ALL.
WHATEVER MADE YOU THINK WE'D
WANT TO HURT YOU, BERNIE?
WHAT DID
YOU EVER DO?
OH, FORGIVE ME,
THOMPSON,
BUT IT MEANS
SUCH A LOT TO ME.
YOU UNDERSTAND.
PERFECTLY. HOW DO YOU SUPPOSE
I FELT WHEN IT HAPPENED TO ME?
YOU'LL FIND YOUR ROOMS
READY FOR YOU.
THEY'RE CLEAN AND CHEERFUL,
IN THE SAME HOUSE AS MINE,
AND THE HOUSEKEEPER'S
QUITE A DECENT SORT.
INFLUENCE.
I'M HAPPY TO SEE HE'S
TAKING CARE OF THE CLERGYMAN,
FOUND HIM A NICE
PLACE TO LIVE.
SIR, MY NAME IS LINGLEY OF LINGLEY LTD.
ALL RIGHT. GO AWAY.
I'VE GIVEN THIS MATTER
A GREAT DEAL OF MY TIME,
AND MY FEELING IS THAT I WOULD BE IN THE GENERAL INTERES
IF I ACTED AS SPOKESMAN FOR US ALL.
GO AWAY.
I THOUGHT THAT THIS WOULD
BE A GOOD MOMENT TO APPROACH-
WILL YOU
GO AWAY, SIR?
CERTAINLY. I DON'T STAY
WHERE I'M NOT WANTED.
IF I FIND I'M GETTING
A PREJUDICED TRIAL,
I WON'T HESITATE A MOMEN TO GO OVER YOUR HEAD!
LOOK OUT, MR. THOMPSON.
HE'LL GET YOU CANNED.
HAD A LITTLE TROUBLE
THIS TRIP, DIDN'T YOU?
YES. A BIT,
BUT WE MANAGED.
GOOD MAN.
WILL YOU COME
WITH ME NOW, SIR?
GO WITH YOU? WHERE?
TO THE LAUNCH.
OUTSIDE.
DON'T BE A FOOL. WHAT'S
THE MATTER WITH YOU?
I'M WAITING
FOR MY TRIAL.
BUT, SIR, YOUR
TRIAL'S ALL OVER.
WHAT DID YOU SAY?
YOU HEARD HIM. IT'S
OVER. NOW GO WITH HIM.
LOOK HERE, WHO DO YOU
THINK YOU'RE DEALING WITH?
I'M NO 30-BOB-
A- WEEK CLERK!
NO, YOU'RE NOT THAT.
I HEARD NO CASE MADE
OUT AGAINST ME OR FOR ME.
I DID,
DISTINCTLY.
WHEN? WHERE?
RIGHT HERE.
WHAT?
WHO SPOKE AGAINST ME?
WHAT WAS I CHARGED WITH?
WITH BEING LINGLEY
OF LINGLEY LTD,
THE VERY FIRST WORDS
OUT OF YOUR MOUTH.
THAT'S VERY CLEVER,
BUT YOU LISTEN TO ME.
I'M NOT ASHAMED OF WHA I MADE OUT OF MYSELF.
I CAME UP FROM NOTHING.
I DIDN'T HAVE
A SINGLE ADVANTAGE.
YES, THAT'S TRUE. YOU
STARTED LIFE IN A SLUM.
A SLUM, A FILTHY,
DISGUSTING LIVERPOOL SLUM!
BUT I PULLED MYSELF OUT OF
IT FAST ENOUGH, DIDN'T I?
I WORKED HARD,
I NEVER STOPPED,
NEVER SPARED MYSELF.
FOR 30 YEARS, I LIVED ONLY FOR MY WORK.
I WAS RESPECTED. PEOPLE LOOKED UP TO ME,
YES, FEARED ME.
THE TROUBLE WITH YOU IS
YOU'RE NOT FIT TO JUDGE ME.
YOU DON' UNDERSTAND BUSINESS.
BUSINESS,
MR. LINGLEY?
ORGANIZED THUGGERY
THE WAY YOU CONDUCTED IT.
WHAT OF IT? I WANTED WHA I WANTED, AND I GOT IT.
DID YOU?
YES. I WAS
NO ORDINARY MAN.
I NEVER FOLLOWED
ORDINARY LAWS.
I MADE GOOD. I HAD
EVERYTHING I WANTED.
WELL, WHERE IS IT?
I HAD IT.
I DON'T CARE.
I HAD I FOR 30 YEARS.
FLICKERING
OF AN EYELASH.
WHAT HAVE YOU GO WITH YOU NOW?
WHAT'S HERE FOR
YOU TO GO TO? WHO?
WAIT. JUST A MINUTE.
YOU NEVER STOPPED. YOU DIDN' LOOK TO THE RIGHT OR THE LEFT.
THE BUSINESS
OF MAKING MONEY
BECAME YOUR FATHER, YOUR
MOTHER, YOUR SWEETHEART-
WAIT, LET'S TALK THIS
OVER CALMLY, REASONABLY.
YOU NEVER KNEW A WOMAN YOU
LOVED, A WOMAN THAT LOVED YOU,
AND YOU WON'T FIND
ONE HERE.
I WON'T?
OH, I DON'T KNOW.
I MIGHT.
YES,
THERE IS SOMEONE.
YES, MAXINE.
MAXINE RUSSELL.
SHE'S A GOOD DEAL
LIKE MYSELF.
NO, YOU WON'T HAVE HER.
WHY NOT?
'CAUSE HERE, MY SON,
YOU CAN'T BUY ANYTHING.
DON'T LOOK SO SHOCKED,
BERNIE. IT MUST BE DONE.
HE'S GOT TO SUFFER AS MUCH
AS HE MADE OTHERS SUFFER.
WELL, COME ALONG. YOU CAN
START YOUR APPRENTICESHIP NOW
AND HELP ME
WITH THIS BUNCH.
SCRUBBY WILL BE
SENDING THEM IN.
YOU THERE, GET UP.
YOU'RE COMING WITH US.
JUST YOU, YOUNG MAN.
SHE STAYS HERE OUTSIDE.
NO. I WON'T DO IT.
JUST YOU.
I WON'T GO WITHOUT HER!
YOU CAN'T SEPARATE US!
YOU HAVE NO RIGHT!
COME ALONG, BERNIE.
WE MUST STAY TOGETHER!
COME, HENRY.
GO WITH THEM, DEAR.
IT'S ALL RIGHT. I'LL BE WAITING FOR YOU.
SIT DOWN, YOUNG MAN.
SIT DOWN THERE.
YOU KNOW SOMETHING,
BERNIE?
I'LL CONFESS TO YOU NOW
I USED TO DIET SECRETLY.
I FOLLOWED A STEADY COURSE
OF EXERCISE FOR YEARS.
NOTHING EVER HELPED.
HA HA.
HELLO.
HOW DO YOU DO? I'M VERY
PLEASED TO MEET YOU.
COME AND SIT DOWN.
I'LL BE BRIEF.
WHAT I WANT IS A VILLA.
YOU WANT A VILLA.
A VERY LARGE ONE WITH
A PINK ROOF IF POSSIBLE.
PINK.
THE TERRACES MUST BE GOOD,
THE SECTION EXCLUSIVE,
AND THE DINING ROOM
MUST BE LARGE ENOUGH
TO SEAT AT LEAS
I DO A LOT OF ENTERTAINING.
YOU UNDERSTAND?
QUITE, MADAME.
YOU'LL HAVE THE TERRACES,
THE DINING ROOM,
AND AS FOR THE VILLA,
YOU'LL BE SUITED BETTER
THAN YOU THINK.
YOU'LL HAVE A CASTLE.
A CASTLE!
WHY, THAT IS GENEROUS,
LIKE A BARONESS.
WELL, I HARDLY EXPECTED
ANYTHING AS NICE.
THANK YOU.
YOU'VE BEEN MOST KIND.
GOOD-BYE.
AS SOON AS I'M SETTLED, YOU
MUST ALL COME AND DINE WITH ME.
AH, MADAME, THERE
WE RUN INTO SOMETHING.
I'M AFRAID
THAT WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE.
OH, WHAT A PITY.
TOO BAD.
WHY IS IT IMPOSSIBLE?
WHY CAN'T YOU COME?
NO ONE CAN EVER
COME TO SEE YOU.
WHAT?
NONSENSE.
DO YOU ACTUALLY MEAN THAT I'M
TO BE BY MYSELF DAY IN, DAY OUT,
ALL ALONE?
YES, MADAME.
WHAT-WHAT ABOU THE CASTLE?
WHAT'S THE GOOD
OF POSSESSIONS
IF YOU CAN'T SHOW
THEM TO ANYBODY?
IF NO ONE WILL COME
AND CALL ON YOU?
I DEMAND AN ANSWER!
I INSIST ON KNOWING WHY PEOPLE
ARE FORBIDDEN TO COME AND SEE ME.
WOMEN LIKE YOU
DON'T HAVE FRIENDS HERE.
WOMEN LIKE...
OH! OH! I SEE
WHAT'S HAPPENED.
YOU'VE CONFUSED ME
WITH ANOTHER PASSENGER,
WITH THAT MAXINE RUSSELL
PERSON.
YES, SHE IS VERY
CHEAP AND COMMON.
MRS. CLIVEDEN-BANKS, I HAVEN' CONFUSED YOU WITH ANYONE.
AS FAR AS MAXINE RUSSELL
IS CONCERNED,
I'M AFRAID YOU'RE MUCH LOWER
THAN SHE EVER WAS.
I BEG YOUR PARDON.
HOW DARE YOU?
THOMPSON, YOU
MUST BE MISTAKEN.
SEEMS QUITE
THE LADY TO YOU, EH?
SURFACE,
BERNIE, SURFACE.
WITH TIME, WITH EXPERIENCE,
HER SORT WON'T FOOL YOU AT ALL.
YOU SEE, THIS WOMAN
WAS ONCE AN ATTRACTIVE GIRL.
THERE WERE
MANY OPPORTUNITIES, MANY MEN,
AND THEN SHE MET BENJAMIN-
DECENT, TRUSTING-
AND SHE WANTED HIM-
SECURITY, HIS MONEY,
POSITION-
AND SHE GOT HIM.
SHE KNEW HOW.
IT WAS AS EASY AS THAT.
ALL RIGHT.
I'VE HEARD ENOUGH.
I'M READY TO LEAVE.
I'M GOING TO GE MY HUSBAND.
YOUR HUSBAND?
HE'S COMING WITH ME, AND
I WON'T LET YOU INTERFERE!
DON'T WORRY, MADAME. WE NEVER
INTERFERE, NOT IN THESE MATTERS.
IT'S ODD THA YOU SHOULD WANT HIM,
AFTER ALL THE YEARS OF
DAMAGE YOU'VE DONE HIM...
HUMILIATION.
I DIDN'T HURT HIM.
HE DIDN'T KNOW.
HE WAS ALWAYS OFF
PLAYING GOLF SOMEWHERE
WITH FRIENDS.
YOU REMEMBER HE'D WALK
INTO A ROOM FULL OF PEOPLE.
THERE WOULD BE A SUDDEN
HUSH OF PITY FOR HIM.
HE NEVER KNEW,
I TELL YOU!
IT DIDN'T HURT HIM.
HE NEVER KNEW.
I ALWAYS KNEW,
GENEVIEVE.
YOU KNEW?
FROM THE BEGINNING.
HOW DID YOU KNOW,
BENJAMIN?
MY DEAR, YOU WERE A GREA BEAUTY- ACCOMPLISHED, CHARMING-
AND I-DID YOU THINK
I WAS SO VAIN
AS TO IMAGINE
I'D WON YOU FOR MYSELF?
AND YET, YOU MARRIED ME.
BECAUSE I LOVED YOU.
BECAUSE I THOUGH - I HOPED ONE DAY YOU MIGHT CHANGE,
FEEL DIFFERENT.
YOU DIDN'T.
BUT I NEVER BLAMED YOU,
GENEVIEVE. I STILL CAN'T.
YOU KNEW.
YOU FORGAVE ME.
OH, BENJAMIN,
YOU'RE SO GOOD.
WELL, THEN IT'S ALL
RIGHT, ALL RIGHT,
AND HERE I WAS JUST A
FEW MOMENTS AGO WORRYING,
AFRAID OF BEING ALL ALONE,
AFRAID OF A HUNDRED THINGS.
HA HA. I WAS SILLY.
COME. THEY'VE
GIVEN US A CASTLE.
IT'S WAITING FOR US.
NO, GENEVIEVE.
WHY?
WHAT...
YOU SAID YOU
WOULDN'T INTERFERE!
I'M NOT.
IT'S HIS CHOICE ENTIRELY.
BENJAMIN...
WHY? WHY WON' YOU COME WITH ME?
MY DEAR, I'VE
THOUGHT AND THOUGHT,
AND I BELIEVE IT ALL STARTED WITH
THAT MUSIC WE HEARD IN THE LOUNGE-
YOUR MUSIC.
YES, IT TOOK ME
BACK 20 YEARS.
NO, MY DEAR,
IT WOULDN'T DO.
YOU SEE, THAT LOVE
I HAD IS GONE, VANISHED.
YOU MUST UNDERSTAND.
OF COURSE
I UNDERSTAND.
I DON'T MIND
IN THE LEAST.
WHY, I'M JUS AS PLEASED.
OF COURSE.
YOU SAY IT'S A CASTLE,
A REAL CASTLE.
YOU GUARANTEE THAT?
YES, MADAME.
OH, IT'S WONDERFUL.
I'M SO DELIGHTED.
I JUST CAN'T WAI UNTIL I SEE IT.
ALONE OR NOT, I KNOW I SHALL
BE COMPLETELY HAPPY THERE.
GOOD-BYE, BENJAMIN.
GOOD-BYE, MY DEAR.
GOOD-BYE.
GOOD-BYE, EVERYBODY.
GOOD-BYE.
YOU SWINE!
WELL, LET'S GET ALONG.
YOU HAVE FRIENDS WAITING
FOR YOU ONSHORE, YOU KNOW.
WHAT'S THAT,
SIR?
ARCHER, HAMMOND, SAMPSON,
THE LOT OF THEM.
SAMPSON...ARCHER...
ALL MY CHUMS.
WHY, IT'S THE OLD CLUB
AGAIN BACK AT CAPE TOWN.
AND THE GOLF,
BENJAMIN.
AH, YOU'VE NEVER
SEEN SUCH GREENS.
OLD FRIENDS, GOOD COMPANIONS, LOVE.
SHE WAS SO PRETTY...
SO VERY PRETTY.
OH, THOMPSON, IT HAD TO BE DONE, I KNOW,
BUT I AM
SO SORRY FOR HIM.
THAT MAN LOVED HER.
YES, BERNIE,
BUT YOU SEE-
HEY, WHAT ABOUT ME?
I'M READY.
WHAT'S THE MATTER, BOY?
I'VE WAITED
LONG ENOUGH.
LET'S GET THIS
OVER WITH.
THEN COME IN.
COME IN.
I'LL DEAL
WITH YOU NOW.
NO. WAIT.
SO, MY CHILD,
YOU'RE HERE
AFTER ALL.
YES.
I RAISED A RUMPUS,
HAD A TIME.
DIDN'T HELP.
I'M TIRED.
I WANT TO GO.
MAXI.
I SAT THERE IN MY CABIN
THINKING, REMEMBERING...
ALL THE THINGS
THAT WERE,
ALL THE THINGS THA COULD HAVE BEEN.
I WANTED TO CRY.
YOU DID CRY.
STAND UP
TO HIM, MAXI.
YOU NEVER CRIED. YOU ALWAYS TOOK IT.
LITTLE GIRLS IN THEIR
NICE, WHITE MIDDY BLOUSES,
FACES CLEAN
AND SHINING.
I REMEMBER WE USED
TO JUMP ROPE.
I WAS THE BES IN THE SCHOOLYARD.
DID 150 TIMES ONCE.
STAND UP
TO HIM, MAXI.
DON'T LET HIM WALK
ALL OVER YOU. NOT YOU.
OH, TOMMY.
TOMMY.
GOOD-BYE, TOMMY.
WHAT DID YOU
DO THAT FOR?
WHY?
SHE'S AFRAID
FOR YOU.
NOBODY HAS TO
BE AFRAID FOR ME.
I'LL TAKE IT-ANYTHING
THAT'S COMING TO ME.
COME ON. I'LL SHOW YOU.
I'LL TAKE IT.
YOU MURDERED YOURSELF,
MY CHILD.
EVERYTHING
I'VE BEEN THROUGH,
EVERYTHING I'VE SEEN
AND DONE...
THERE'S HOPE HERE.
YES.
HOPE.
OH, IF I COULD ONLY
GET BACK TO THAT GIRL
IN THE MIDDY BLOUSE.
IF I COULD ONLY STAR ALL OVER AGAIN.
COME.
YES.
DOUBLE
OR NOTHING.
WHAT DO
YOU SAY?
WHAT'S THAT,
BOY?
HIGHEST CARD. THREE TIMES OUT OF FIVE.
WILL YOU GAMBLE
WITH ME?
WHAT FOR?
DOUBLE OR NOTHING.
THAT'S WHAT I SAID.
IF I LOSE,
I'LL DO IT-
ANYTHING YOU SAY.
NO SQUAWKS. NO BEEF.
AND IF YOU WIN?
THEN I WANT DEATH-
A REAL DEATH-ZERO.
DEATH AS YOU
IMAGINE IT.
DEATH AS
I WANTED IT-
BLANK, FINISHED,
NOTHING.
WILL YOU DO IT?
THOMPSON!
WE'LL PLAY.
HE'S A SPECIALIS AT IT, THOMPSON.
HE CAN DO
ALL SORTS OF TRICKS.
I'VE SEEN HIM.
WE'LL PLAY.
TAKE A CARD.
WAIT A MINUTE.
MISTAKE.
WE'LL TRY IT AGAIN.
TAKE A CARD.
BUT I FIXED THEM.
I- I PALMED THEM.
WAIT.
ALL RIGHT.
YOU WIN.
PICK UP THE MARBLES.
DIDN'T YOU KNOW YOU CAN' GET BY WITH TRICKS HERE?
WITH FAKERY?
NO SERMONS.
NO LECTURES.
WHAT'S COMING TO ME?
I'LL TAKE IT.
HELL AND BRIMSTONE.
WHAT HAPPENS NOW?
NOTHING HAPPENS.
YOU JUST GO ON,
THAT'S ALL.
WHERE'S THE CATCH?
NO CATCH.
ON THE LEVEL?
FINE.
SAY, YOU'RE O.K.
AT THAT.
YOU THROUGH
WITH ME NOW?
YES. YES.
THERE'S ONLY
ONE THING.
AHA, IT COMES.
ONE THING.
IT'S JUST THA YOU CAN'T FAKE HERE.
ALL RIGHT. I HEARD YOU
THE FIRST TIME.
WHAT'S THE TRAGEDY?
SO I'LL LAY OFF THE CARDS.
IT HAS NOTHING
TO DO WITH CARDS.
YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO
FAKE ANY LONGER.
NO EXCUSES,
NO DODGES,
NO LIQUOR
OR FANCY TALK
TO HELP YOU HIDE THE
TRUTH FROM YOURSELF.
STOP. STOP.
YOU'RE BREAKING MY HEART.
I'LL CRY MY EYES OUT.
YOU'LL SEE YOURSELF FOR
WHAT YOU ACTUALLY WERE-
A WASTER, AN IDLER.
BUNK.
GET OFF ME.
YOU CAN'T RUN AWAY FROM
YOURSELF HERE, MY SON.
NOW AND FOR
THE REST OF TIME,
YOU'LL FACE
THE TRUTH.
I DON'T KNOW
WHAT OR WHO
CAN HELP YOU.
ALL RIGHT. FINE.
SO WHAT?
SO NOBODY
CAN HELP ME.
PERHAPS I COULD,
SIR.
YOU AGAIN. ANOTHER COUNTY HEARD FROM.
WHAT ARE YOU
DOING HERE?
EXCUSE ME FOR
COMING IN, SIR,
BUT I-I HEARD
VOICES RAISED.
I GREW WORRIED.
WHAT DO YOU WANT?
WHY ARE YOU
ALWAYS FOLLOWING ME?
I WANT TO HELP YOU.
I KNOW JUS WHAT YOU NEED NOW.
WHAT? A HO PLATE OF SOUP?
NO.
SOMEONE
TO LOOK AFTER YOU-
A HOUSEKEEPER, SORT OF.
IT'S A SMALL THING,
I KNOW,
BUT IF SHE WAS RELIABLE,
IF SHE-IF SHE
LIKED YOU, SIR,
WHY, IT WOULD GIVE YOU
A NEW OUTLOOK-
MAKE AN ALTOGETHER NEW
PERSON OUT OF YOU, BELIEVE ME.
MRS. MIDGET, ARE YOU
SUGGESTING YOURSELF?
WELL, I WAS
THINKING OF IT.
VERY FINE.
VERY FINE OF YOU.
THERE'S A LITTLE COTTAGE
WAITING FOR YOU
WITH A GARDEN
BY THE SEA.
A GARDEN?
A REGULAR GARDEN
WITH GERANIUMS
AND ROSES?
YES, ALL KINDS
OF FLOWERS.
THERE WE ARE, THEN.
THE VERY SPOT FOR US.
YOU DON' UNDERSTAND.
MR. PRIOR COULDN'T GO TO LIVE THERE.
HE HAS ANOTHER ROAD TO FOLLOW-
A HARD ROAD.
THEN I'LL GO WITH HIM
WHERE HE GOES.
IT'S VERY SIMPLE,
ISN'T IT?
YOU'D GIVE THAT COTTAGE
UP FOR ME?
IT'S NOTHING, SIR.
NOTHING.
THEN IT'S
UP TO YOU
SINCE SHE'S
WILLING.
WHAT'S THE ANGLE?
WHAT DID YOU DO,
PULL THIS SOB SISTER STUFF
TO SHOW ME UP?
I'M NO SUCKER.
NOBODY CONS ME.
I'M HIP!
OH, PRIOR.
PRIOR.
ARE YOU SO WARPED,
SO BLIND
THAT YOU CAN' RECOGNIZE A DECENT THING
WHEN IT HAPPENS
TO YOU?
I JUST WANT TO
BE WITH YOU.
THAT'S ALL.
TRULY.
NO.
NO.
I'LL GO BY MYSELF.
BUT WHY?
BECAUSE I'M NO WORTH IT, THAT'S WHY.
BECAUSE EVERYTHING HE SAID
ABOUT ME WAS THE TRUTH.
YEAH, I STARTED OU ALL RIGHT.
THOSE FAMOUS SISTERS,
TRUTH AND JUSTICE,
I WALKED WITH THEM
ARM IN ARM,
BUT SOMEWHERE
ALONG THE ROAD,
I- I LOST THEM,
OR THEY LOST ME.
I DON' EXACTLY REMEMBER.
TELL ME, SOMEBODY.
WHAT WENT WRONG?
I STARTED OUT TO BE
A RIGHT GUY,
TO HELP THE OTHER FELLOW,
TO MAKE MY LIFE
MEAN SOMETHING.
I HAD THE RIGHT IDEA,
SO WHY DID I
MAKE A MESS OF MY LIFE-
A MESS I'M SICK
AND TIRED OF?
I DON'T KNOW
WHAT HAPPENED.
I JUST DON'T KNOW.
THAT DOESN'T SOUND
LIKE YOU AT ALL.
I THINK SHE MUS BE RIGHT.
WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?
A NEW OUTLOOK.
PRIOR, YOU NEVER
CAN TELL.
IN TIME,
SHE MIGHT REALLY
MAKE A NEW PERSON OUT OF YOU-
A PERSON YOU
WOULDN'T MIND
LIVING WITH
AT ALL.
DO LET'S MAKE
A TRY TOGETHER.
WHY DON'T WE?
YOU-YOU REALLY
WANT TO?
DO I WANT TO?
OH, SIR, YOU'LL
NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH.
BUT WHY? WHY?
BECAUSE-BECAUSE
IT'S ALWAYS GOOD
TO HAVE SOMEONE
TO LOOK AFTER.
IT'S CHEERY.
WILL YOU DO IT?
WELL, YOU'RE GOING OU ON A LIMB.
I- I DROP CIGARETTE BUTTS
ON THE RUGS.
DO YOU, NOW?
I HANG MY COAT UP
ON BACKS OF CHAIRS.
DO YOU, NOW?
I PUT MY FEET UP
ON SOFAS
AND MAKE A RACKE RUNNING UP STAIRS
AND NEVER SHUT DOORS
BEHIND ME.
WHAT DO YOU THINK
OF THOSE THINGS?
I THINK
THEY'RE WONDERFUL.
YOU DO?
I DO.
ALL RIGHT, THEN.
I HAVE WITNESSES.
YOU WERE WARNED.
ALL RIGHT.
ALL RIGHT. COME ON.
GOOD-BYE,
MRS. PRIOR.
YOU'RE
A GOOD MOTHER.
HOW DID YOU FIND OUT?
HE MUSTN'T KNOW.
OH, YOU WON'T TELL HIM,
WILL YOU?
PROMISE.
I PROMISE.
AND YOU, TOO-
BOTH OF YOU.
PROMISE ME.
OF COURSE,
BUT TELL ME,
WHY WON'T YOU
LET HIM KNOW?
IT WOULDN'T BE RIGHT.
WHEN HE WAS LITTLE,
WHEN HE NEEDED ME,
I HANDED HIM OVER TO STRANGERS
IN AMERICA, DIDN'T I?
ADVANTAGES, I THOUGHT.
AND IT WOULD BE A FINE
HOW-DO-YOU-DO
IF I JUST WALKED IN NOW
AND PLUMPED MYSELF ON HIM
BRAZEN AS YOU PLEASE.
WHY, IT WOULD
EMBARRASS HIM SEVERELY-
A MAN IN HIS POSITION.
EMBARRASS HIM?
OF COURSE.
YOU'VE FORGOTTEN,
YOUR REVERENCE,
HE'S A VERY
SUCCESSFUL MAN.
BUT YOU-YOU JUS HEARD WHAT HE SAID.
WHY, RIGHT HERE.
HEARD WHAT?
OH, I KNOW HE SAYS
ODD THINGS AT TIMES,
GROWS MOODY.
THAT'S BECAUSE
HE'S SO BADLY OVERWORKED.
YES, HE'S A VERY
IMPORTANT MAN, SIR-
FAMOUS. A JOURNALIST.
OH, IT'S GRAND, ISN'T IT-
THE WAY IT'S HAPPENED.
I ARRANGED TO SAIL
WITH HIM
BECAUSE I WANTED ONLY
TO BE NEAR HIM, TO SEE HIM,
AND NOW, IMAGINE,
NOW I'VE GOT HIM
AT LAST TO LOOK AFTER.
HEAVEN,
THAT'S WHAT IT IS.
IT'S HEAVEN.
HEY, MRS. MIDGET.
YOU SEE?
HE WANTS ME.
YES, DEAR,
I'M COMING.
I'M COMING...
MY BOY.
MOTHERS.
PETE.
PETE, HURRY UP
IN HERE.
DON'T KEEP ME
WAITING.
I GOT NOTHING TO
TALK ABOUT WITH YOU.
COME AND SIT DOWN.
ALL I WANT TO SAY
IS I GOT A RAW DEAL,
AND I DON'T CARE
WHO KNOWS IT.
WHAT'S
THE MATTER?
WHAT'S
THE TROUBLE?
ALL I WANT TO SAY IS
THEY CERTAINLY PICKED A
BAD TIME TO GIVE IT TO ME.
TORPEDOED
THREE TIMES.
LISTEN.
EVERYBODY
THINKS TO HIMSELF
THEY'RE A PRETTY
GOOD GUY, O.K.,
BUT WHAT DID I EVER DO
THAT WAS SO TERRIBLE?
NOTHING.
IT'S NOT FAIR.
I WAS A GUY
THAT KNEW HOW TO
ENJOY LIFE,
WASN'T I?
YES.
YOU BET I WAS.
CONNIE AND THE KID-
EVEN IF I NEVER
SAW IT,
I GOT PLEASURE JUS THINKING ABOUT IT.
AND DRIVING A TRUCK IN THE COUNTRY
- WITH THE TREES
OR JUST WALKING
DOWN THE STREE
LOOKING INTO
STORE WINDOWS.
A MILLION THINGS.
LISTEN. JUS ANSWER ME THIS.
WHY SHOULD I DESERVE
TO GET PUNISHED?
NO ONE'S
PUNISHING YOU, PETE.
THEN WHY DID I
HAVE TO DIE?
FOR THE TREES,
I THINK.
FOR THE STREETS.
THINGS YOU LOVED-
YOUR HOME.
AH, WORDS.
JUST WORDS, THAT'S WHAT THEY HAND YOU.
WAIT.
I'M AFRAID
YOU'VE FORGOTTEN.
AN EVIL ENEMY-
MISGUIDED WRETCHES
WHO DIDN'T WAN TO UNDERSTAND
WHAT THE EARTH WAS
REALLY THERE FOR-
THEY SPRANG OUT OF
NIGHT TO ROB, TO HARASS,
TO SPOIL
AND TO MURDER.
YOU FOUGHT THEM,
PETE.
YOU STOPPED THEM.
THAT WAS A GOOD REASON
TO DIE FOR, MY SON.
THE BEST, I THINK.
FOR CONNIE,
FOR THE BABY.
FINE SATISFACTION.
I'LL NEVER
SEE THEM AGAIN.
OH, WON'T YOU, NOW?
EVERYONE WINDS UP HERE
SOONER OR LATER, DOESN'T HE?
WHAT?
BLOW YOUR NOSE, MY SON, AND CHEER UP.
WHERE DO YOU
THINK YOU ARE?
THERE'S ALL
SORTS OF GOOD THINGS
WAITING FOR YOU
HERE.
YEAH?
DEATH. PEOPLE HAVE ALL SORTS OF NOTIONS.
IT'S
REALLY VERY SIMPLE.
YOU SEE, MY SON,
YOU MAKE YOUR HEAVEN
AND HELL FOR YOURSELVES
ON EARTH.
YOU ONLY BRING I WITH YOU HERE.
SOME PEOPLE WASTE
THEIR MOMENT ON EARTH-
WASTE IT TRAGICALLY.
OTHERS...
TOSS IT ASIDE,
BUT YOU, MY SON,
YOU USED I BEAUTIFULLY,
AS IT WAS
MEANT TO BE USED,
AND YOU MAY BE SURE
THERE'S NOTHING HERE FOR
YOU BUT JOY AND CONTENT.
ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?
IT'S O.K. IT'S SWELL.
I AIN'T KICKING.
I JUST NEVER
LOOKED AT IT THAT WAY.
I'M GLAD NOW.
GLAD.
BUT, GEE, THOSE HOT DOGS
AT CONEY ISLAND.
WELL, BERNIE, THAT'S
THE JOB, SUCH AS IT IS.
THE MAIN THING,
YOU SEE,
IS JUST NOT TO
MIX IN TOO MUCH.
EVERYTHING SEEMS
TO HAVE A WAY
OF WORKING OUT BY ITSELF SOMEHOW.
WELL,
THAT'S THAT.
WAIT!
EXCUSE ME,
SIR, BUT...
WAIT FOR WHAT?
I'M FINISHED.
OH, NO,
THOMPSON.
THERE'S
THE YOUNG COUPLE.
THIS MAN.
I'VE DONE EVERYTHING
I COULD FOR HIM.
I ASKED HIM IN
HERE, DIDN'T I?
I LET HIM LISTEN
AND LEARN.
BUT WHAT'S TO
BECOME OF US-
MY WIFE, MYSELF?
YOU HAVEN'T JUDGED
OUR CASES YET.
THERE'S NO JUDGING
TO BE DONE FOR YOU.
YOU TOOK MATTERS INTO
YOUR OWN HANDS, DIDN'T YOU?
AS FOR YOUR WIFE,
NATURALLY, SHE'S GOING ASHORE WITH ME.
NATURALLY.
WITHOUT ME?
NO! NO!
WE MUST NEVER
BE SEPARATED.
SCRUBBY.
WHY DOES HE
SEND YOU TO ME?
BECAUSE, HENRY,
YOU AND I,
WE DIED IN
THE SAME WAY.
YES, AND THE FATE
IN STORE FOR YOU-
IT'S JUST LIKE MINE.
YOU MEAN I'M TO BE
LEFT BEHIND ON THIS SHIP?
YES, OR ONE LIKE IT.
PEOPLE OF OUR SORT-
SUICIDES-
THAT'S THE PENALTY
WE MUST PAY.
BUT WHY DOES HE
TAKE MY WIFE FROM ME?
SHE DIED WITH ME
IN THE SAME ROOM,
IN THE VERY SAME WAY.
HOW DID SHE DIE,
HENRY?
IN THE SAME WAY.
NO.
SHE DIED FOR ME.
IT WAS DIFFERENT...
ALTOGETHER DIFFERENT.
YOU SHOULD
BE HAPPY, HENRY-
GLAD SHE'S
GOING WITH THOMPSON.
I DON'T HAVE TO
TELL YOU,
FOR ANN, FOR A GIRL
LIKE HER,
THERE'S A BEAUTIFUL
HEAVEN WAITING HERE.
WOULD YOU WANT HER
WITH YOU
SAILING ENDLESSLY
BACK AND FORTH,
BACK AND FORTH?
SAILING FOREVER?
A SAD EXCHANGE,
HENRY,
FOR A WONDERFUL
HEAVEN.
ANN!
ANN, LISTEN TO ME,
THEY-
HERE I AM,
HENRY.
OH, MY DARLING.
MY DARLING.
I DON'T KNOW
HOW TO TELL YOU.
I NEVER THOUGHT,
I NEVER DREAMED
THAT THIS MOMEN WOULD COME.
WHAT IS IT, HENRY?
WE CAN'T BE
TOGETHER, ANN.
YOU'RE GOING ASHORE.
YOU BELONG THERE.
YOU MUST GO.
LEAVE YOU HERE ALONE?
YOU KNOW
I CAN'T DO THAT.
BUT YOU MUST.
THERE IS NO CHOICE.
I WANT YOU TO
LEAVE ME, DEAREST.
I WANT YOU TO GO.
COME, MY CHILD.
YOU'RE KEEPING US
WAITING.
THERE'S
NO USE WAITING.
I CAN' GO WITH YOU.
WHAT'S THAT?
ANN! ANN, STOP.
DON'T SAY THAT.
WAIT A MOMENT, CHILD.
WE CAN'T PUNISH YOU FOR
SOMETHING YOU NEVER DID.
IT WASN'T YOUR ACT.
IT WASN'T YOUR FAULT.
IT WAS.
I WANTED I MYSELF.
AYE?
WHATEVER MY HUSBAND
DID, I DID.
WHATEVER
HAPPENS TO HIM,
THE SAME THING
MUST HAPPEN TO ME.
WELL, THEN, NOTHING
MORE FOR ME TO DO.
NO. WAIT, SIR.
PLEASE.
SHE DOESN' MEAN IT.
FORGIVE HER.
COME WITH ME,
BERNIE.
ANN, MY DARLING,
HURRY. QUICKLY.
GO WITH THEM.
I CAN'T.
SHE MUSTN' STAY HERE.
WAIT.
OH, SIR,
PLEASE WAIT.
CAN'T YOU
DO SOMETHING, SIR?
I'VE MADE
COUNTLESS TRIPS,
ALWAYS KEPT SILENT,
NEVER ONCE FORGO MY PLACE,
BUT THIS GIRL, SIR,
THIS GREAT LOVE
SHE HAS-
I MUST SPEAK UP.
OH, PLEASE.
PLEASE, WON'T YOU
HELP HER SOMEHOW?
SOME WAY?
GOOD MAN, SCRUBBY.
GOOD MAN.
IT'S DONE. OVER.
YOU KNEW HOW IT WAS
ALL GOING TO END.
YOU TRIED SO HARD TO KEEP
ME AWAY FROM THE OTHERS,
FROM THE STEWARD.
I TRIED.
IT DIDN'T HELP.
WILL THEY EVER LET ME
FORGET THE GREAT WRONG I'VE-
ANN, WHAT'S THAT?
WHAT, HENRY?
THAT NOISE.
THE SOUND OF
GLASS BREAKING.
DON'T YOU HEAR IT?
NO. NO.
STRANGE.
I THOUGHT...
WE ARE SAILING AGAIN.
IT'S SO BLEAK NOW.
THERE IS A CHILL
IN THE AIR.
IF I COULD
ONLY FORGET.
FORGET.
DON'T LET HIM
GO TOO FAR, ANN.
IT'S ALL RIGHT.
TAKE MY ADVICE.
CALL HIM BACK.
HE ONLY WANTS TO BE
BY HIMSELF FOR A WHILE.
IT'S BETTER FOR HIM
TO BE ALONE NOW.
YOU SEE? HE'S PLAYING.
IT MUST BE HORRIBLE
FOR YOU, SCRUBBY.
YOU HAVE NO ONE.
YES, IT'S LONELY,
BUT YOU KEEP
OCCUPIED, YOU KNOW.
FIND
PLEASANT THOUGHTS,
MEMORIES TO GIVE YOU
COMFORT.
IT IS LONELY.
ENDLESS.
ALWAYS THE SAME.
GO TO HIM, ANN.
STAY CLOSE TO HIM.
DON'T STOP, DEAR.
YOU MUST TRY
NOT TO THINK.
WE'RE TOGETHER,
HAVE EACH OTHER.
THAT'S ALL
I EVER ASKED.
THAT NOISE, ANN.
LISTEN.
I'M SURE I HEAR
GLASS SHATTERING.
DON'T YOU HEAR IT?
NO, DEAR. THERE'S NO SOUND. NOTHING.
THEN I MUS BE WRONG.
BUT I COULD HAVE
SWORN...
LET ME THINK.
LET ME GO OUTSIDE
AND THINK.
CALL HIM BACK.
WHY, SCRUBBY?
WHY DO YOU KEEP
SAYING THAT?
SEE?
HE'S RIGHT THERE
WALKING.
CALL HIM BACK,
ANN.
BUT...
ALL RIGHT. I WILL.
HENRY.
HENRY.
HENRY, WHERE DID YOU GO?
HENRY, COME BACK.
I'M WORRIED.
HENRY. HENRY.
SCRUBBY, YOU JUS STAND THERE.
WHY DON'T YOU HELP ME?
HENRY. HENRY.
USELESS, ANN.
I KNOW
WHAT'S HAPPENED.
WHAT?
HE'S GONE BACK.
HE LIVES AGAIN.
LIVES?
HENRY GONE BACK?
THAT SOUND
HE HEARD-
THE SHATTERING
OF GLASS.
HENRY WOULDN' LEAVE ME ALONE.
HE COULDN' HELP HIMSELF.
THEN I MUS FOLLOW HIM.
YOU CAN'T.
IT'S IMPOSSIBLE.
I WILL. I MUST.
IT'S USELESS.
I WILL FOLLOW.
HENRY! HENRY, DEAR.
WHERE ARE YOU?
IT'S ANN.
JUST TELL ME
WHERE YOU ARE, DARLING.
HENRY!
HENRY!
HENRY!
IT'S ME, YOUR ANN.
LISTEN TO ME,
DEAREST.
LISTEN.
I WAS ALWAYS WITH YOU,
WASN'T I?
EVERYWHERE YOU WENT,
I WENT, TOO.
SO JUST TELL ME
WHERE YOU ARE NOW,
AND I'LL GO
WITH YOU AGAIN.
THEY'LL LET ME...
BECAUSE THIS IS
TOO CRUEL.
THE CRUELEST THING.
OH, I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.
HENRY.
HENRY.
THE GLASS.
THE SOUND I HEARD.
THE SHATTERING GLASS.
ANN!
OH, MY DARLING.
YOU ARE SO STILL,
SO QUIET.
YOU MUST WAKE UP.
YOU MUST.
OPEN YOUR EYES,
DEAREST.
LOOK. THE WINDOW
WAS BROKEN.
THE RAID.
THE CLEAN,
FRESH AIR,
IT'S BLOWING IN.
OH, ANN, YOU MUS WAKE UP.
YOU CAN' LEAVE ME NOW-
NOT AFTER EVERYTHING
THEY'VE DONE
TO MAKE US
UNDERSTAND.
OPEN YOUR EYES,
MY DARLING.
COME BACK TO ME.
QUICK, MY LOVE,
MY PRECIOUS.
HURRY.
HENRY.
WE'RE ALIVE, ANN.
ALIVE.
OH, THERE IS
SO MUCH TO DO.
WE KNOW THAT NOW.
THERE IS SO MUCH
TO LIVE FOR.
ANN. ANN.
WE'RE ALIVE!
