00:00:00Meow
00:00:30Meow
00:01:00Meow
00:01:02Meow
00:01:11Meow
00:01:14Then you've made up your mind?
00:01:37You're going through with it?
00:01:39Why not?
00:01:41For one thing, he's an excellent shot.
00:01:43So I've heard...
00:01:44At least try to get some sleep.
00:01:46And if I were you, no more cognac.
00:01:48We'll come for you at five.
00:01:50That gives you three hours.
00:01:51You'll be here.
00:01:52I don't mind so much being killed.
00:01:55But you know how hard it is for me to get up in the morning?
00:02:00Good night.
00:02:01Good night.
00:02:01Good night.
00:02:07I'm afraid this time Stefan has picked the wife of a wrong man.
00:02:10I wonder if you'll be here when we come back.
00:02:16Who is it?
00:02:17Brian.
00:02:18Good morning, Mr. Brian.
00:02:19Good night.
00:02:29Good night.
00:02:37Cheer up, John.
00:02:38This is one engagement I have no intention of keeping.
00:02:42Honor is a luxury.
00:02:43Only gentlemen can afford.
00:02:44Oh, pack my things. Whatever you think I'll need for an indefinite stay.
00:02:51I'll have a cab downstairs in about an hour. I'll go out the back way.
00:02:58I'm sorry I won't be here to see their faces.
00:03:09Did this come during the night?
00:03:11Would you bring me some coffee with cognac?
00:03:41I'll go out the back way.
00:04:11By the time you read this letter, I may be dead.
00:04:23I have so much to tell you, and perhaps very little time. Will I ever send it? I don't know.
00:04:32I must find the strength to write now before it's too late.
00:04:41And as I write, it may become clear that what happened to us had its own reason beyond our poor understanding.
00:04:49If this reaches you, you will know how I became yours when you didn't know who I was, or even that I existed.
00:04:59I think everyone has two birthdays. The day of his physical birth and the beginning of his conscious life.
00:05:06Nothing is vivid or real in my memory. Before that day in spring, when I came home from school and found a moving van in front of our building.
00:05:15I wondered about our new neighbour, who owns such beautiful things.
00:05:39Lisa! Come in, Lisa! Come in this minute, you hear?
00:05:47Lisa!
00:05:49Yes, Mother.
00:05:53Who's going to clean that up?
00:05:55Me, I suppose.
00:05:56Yeah.
00:05:57I haven't enough to do.
00:05:59I told you we shouldn't have enough to do.
00:06:02You better get another rope.
00:06:03What?
00:06:04You better get another rope.
00:06:05All right.
00:06:07Come on.
00:06:08Get another rope to the wagon.
00:06:10This is the last time I move a musician.
00:06:12Why does he have to play the piano?
00:06:14Why not the piccolo?
00:06:22Where do these go?
00:06:25What?
00:06:31Aha. In the stuck.
00:06:33Hey, Pa, where's that rope? We're waiting.
00:06:36I'm coming.
00:06:41Lisa, what are you doing out there?
00:06:43Come inside.
00:06:56I'm sorry.
00:06:59I'm sorry.
00:07:01I rave you.
00:07:03I'm sorry.
00:07:05I was just so grateful.
00:07:07I did not see you that day, or for many days thereafter,
00:07:11but I could listen to your playing.
00:07:14I wish he'd stop that noise.
00:07:37It's not noise.
00:07:39Don't bite my head off.
00:07:41It's Mr. Brown playing.
00:07:42We'll call that flank.
00:07:45Shh.
00:07:56Oh, Dizzy.
00:07:57Who?
00:08:00Him.
00:08:02Oh, I don't know.
00:08:03Quite old, I guess.
00:08:05Oh.
00:08:07You know the boy I was talking to outside of school?
00:08:10The bony one with the yellow hair and the long nose.
00:08:12The bony one who's next to the grocery.
00:08:16I'm going to have to do something about him if he doesn't keep his hands to himself.
00:08:21He thinks he does.
00:08:23He's right out in the street.
00:08:24The bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony one with the bony
00:08:54Thank you, John. I'll be home late. You need to wake up to me.
00:09:21Good morning.
00:09:24Why, Lisa!
00:09:38You're all red in the face. You're blushing!
00:09:43Yes, I was blushing. And hard as it may be for you to realize, from that moment on, I was in love with you.
00:09:53Quite consciously, I began to prepare myself for you. I kept my clothes neater, so you wouldn't be ashamed of me.
00:10:02I went to dancing school. I wanted to become more graceful and learn good manners for you.
00:10:13Five, two, three. And one, two, three. And one, two, three. And one, two, three.
00:10:22And so I would know more about you and your world.
00:10:26I went to the library and studied the lives of the great musicians of the past.
00:10:44Though I was not able to go to your concerts,
00:10:47I found ways of sharing in your success.
00:10:52And as the months went by, I began to know your friends.
00:11:07Many of them were women.
00:11:09Most of them.
00:11:13Lisa!
00:11:19Lisa!
00:11:20Where are you, Lisa?
00:11:22Are you going to finish your dinner?
00:11:33I'm sorry, Mother.
00:11:41What I really lived for were those evenings when you were alone.
00:11:45And I pretended you were playing just for me.
00:11:48And though you didn't know it,
00:12:07you were giving me some of the happiest hours of my life.
00:12:10Here you go, Lord.
00:13:43Come on, let's help him.
00:13:47Oh, I've got to do my own.
00:13:48I'll do it for you afterwards. Come on.
00:13:50Remember what you promised.
00:13:59I will.
00:13:59Oh, beautiful rug.
00:14:08It's a beautiful rug, isn't it?
00:14:10Oh, it's just a rug.
00:14:11Oh, you wouldn't know.
00:14:16Say, what are we doing this for?
00:14:18Shh.
00:14:18I don't hear you.
00:14:19Oh, he can't talk.
00:14:21Well, he can hear, can't he?
00:14:23Come on.
00:14:33You're welcome.
00:14:35Come on, Lisa.
00:14:36I'll be right down.
00:14:37What are you going to do?
00:14:39Go away.
00:14:40I'll be right down.
00:14:40What are you going to do?
00:14:42Go away.
00:14:42I'll throw you downstairs.
00:14:45Are you crazy?
00:14:46I mean...
00:14:50I mean...
00:16:52What are you doing up there?
00:16:59Come, dear.
00:17:00I have something to tell you.
00:17:02It's really good news.
00:17:04Well, I'm sure if you think about it sensibly, you'll be very, very happy.
00:17:13Sit down.
00:17:13Well, I can understand you must have been startled when you saw her customer and me in the hall.
00:17:31Perhaps it was my fault for not telling you something about it before.
00:17:35Well, you see, dear, your mother is not really old.
00:17:40She can have admirers, too.
00:17:42She can even, well, be in love with a man.
00:17:47Someday you'll understand better what that means.
00:17:49Besides, you know how hard it is for us to get along on my small pension.
00:17:56A customer has a comfortable business in Linz, a military tailor.
00:18:01And he has, he has done me the honor of asking me to marry him.
00:18:06Besides, he's a kind man, and he likes you very much.
00:18:11I'm sure with his help, it'll be much easier for you to make the kind of...
00:18:15Mother...
00:18:15What is it?
00:18:18Would we have to go to Linz?
00:18:19Would we have to live there?
00:18:21But why not?
00:18:22What is there to keep us here?
00:18:24I won't go.
00:18:25I won't go.
00:18:26Lisa!
00:18:28What's the matter?
00:18:29But what is it?
00:18:31Lisa!
00:18:35Now, Lisa, do be reasonable and tell your mother.
00:18:39Lisa!
00:18:45But that will go with us in our compartment.
00:18:47Let's see, we had 11 all together.
00:18:491, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11.
00:18:54And the trunk's here, the trunk's here.
00:18:54Now, don't worry, dear, I'll take care of everything.
00:18:56The expressman promised the trunks that, uh...
00:19:00Oh!
00:19:01Either I've lost half a minute or the station clock's ahead.
00:19:03How much will that be, please?
00:19:05That's up to you, sir.
00:19:06Up to me.
00:19:06Good heavens.
00:19:08One dollar should be enough.
00:19:09That's it.
00:19:09Now, let me go.
00:19:10I promise you the trunks will be here on time.
00:19:12About the boxes.
00:19:131, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6...
00:19:16Ah!
00:19:17How long will it take if we send them to Linz third class?
00:19:21Two weeks, maybe.
00:19:22Two weeks.
00:19:23Very good.
00:19:23Mark each of these second class.
00:19:26Third class.
00:19:26Please, sir.
00:19:27Each of...
00:19:28Third class.
00:19:28Third class.
00:19:29Yes, one.
00:19:30Ah!
00:19:31What did I tell you?
00:19:32When you're going to do a thing, do it on time.
00:19:35That's always been nice, sir.
00:19:36Hello, my dear.
00:19:37You can unload those right here.
00:19:38Our train doesn't leave until 12.
00:19:40Yes, 12.
00:19:40Oh, does it leave 12?
00:19:41But sharp, sharp.
00:19:4212?
00:19:43Oh, yes, of course.
00:19:44I don't look for that.
00:19:44Well, now, let me see.
00:19:46I'll have to look.
00:19:47There, right?
00:19:47Here.
00:19:47Please don't get excited.
00:19:49Yeah, please.
00:19:49I take hands.
00:19:50Suddenly I knew I couldn't live without you.
00:19:59I didn't know what I had in mind or what my parents would do when they found me missing.
00:20:04All I wanted was to see you once more, to be near you again, to throw myself at your feet and cling to you and never leave you.
00:20:13Nothing else.
00:20:14Nothing else mattered.
00:20:22All right, all right.
00:20:25Oh, it's you, Lisa.
00:20:28I thought by now you were already halfway to Linz.
00:20:31Isn't your train either, Father?
00:20:33I found something.
00:20:34I didn't know what it was going to be.
00:20:35I found something.
00:20:49I thought I was, uh...
00:20:57I don't know...
00:20:59You...
00:21:02You...
00:22:03They were empty.
00:22:04Would they ever come to life again?
00:22:07Would I?
00:22:09Only you could answer.
00:22:11So I waited.
00:22:14Waited.
00:22:17For what seemed endless hours, I sat outside your door, trying to keep myself awake, afraid
00:22:23I might fall asleep and miss you.
00:22:25Then?
00:22:32Who is it?
00:22:33Brent.
00:22:34Good morning, Mr. Brent.
00:22:35I was so surprised.
00:22:45I don't know.
00:22:46Come here.
00:22:54Hold here.
00:22:55Come here.
00:22:56Come on.
00:22:58Come here.
00:23:04And so there was nothing left for me.
00:23:21I went to Linz.
00:23:31You who have always lived so freely,
00:23:33have you any idea what life is like in a little garrison town?
00:23:39I was 18 now and was expected to take my place in society.
00:23:45Come now, Lisa, don't look down at your feet.
00:23:48Please be tactful and let him do the talking,
00:23:51but not all the talking.
00:23:52Do you hear me, Lisa?
00:23:54Good morning, Colonel.
00:23:55Good morning, Colonel.
00:23:58Good morning.
00:24:03Frau Kessner, Fräulein Kessner,
00:24:05Herr Kessner,
00:24:06I have the honor to present my nephew,
00:24:08Lieutenant Leopold von Katzenegg.
00:24:10I have the honor to kiss your hand.
00:24:13I'm very pleased to make your acquaintance.
00:24:14Thank you, Lieutenant.
00:24:15Herr Kessner,
00:24:17I have the honor, sir.
00:24:18I'm very pleased to make your acquaintance.
00:24:19Thank you, Lieutenant.
00:24:21Allow me to present our daughter, Lisa,
00:24:23Lieutenant Leopold von Katzenegg.
00:24:25Thank you, Lieutenant.
00:24:25I've been meaning to tell you for some time
00:24:35how impressed I was with your parade
00:24:36the morning of the Emperor's birthday.
00:24:39Oh, excuse me.
00:24:45Do you like it here in Lentz?
00:24:47Quite well.
00:24:50It must seem very restful after living in Vienna.
00:24:53I like Vienna.
00:24:55Indeed.
00:24:57What did you like about it?
00:25:02Perhaps you were fond of the music.
00:25:04Yes.
00:25:05We also have good music here.
00:25:08Every other Saturday afternoon
00:25:10they give a concert on the Corso.
00:25:12Oh, really?
00:25:13Perhaps someday you'll allow me the honor
00:25:15to score to you.
00:25:16Very nice of you.
00:25:18When I was a cadet, I took part myself.
00:25:20I paid second trumpet.
00:25:22Oh, how nice.
00:25:23I must say, I'm glad we both like music.
00:25:26You see, there's nothing wrong with a child
00:25:27if she only meets the right people.
00:25:28Up, up, up.
00:25:41Up, up, up, up.
00:25:48The lieutenant was right.
00:25:50Lentz was a musical town.
00:25:51So twice a month that summer
00:25:53we listened, the lieutenant and I.
00:25:56The lieutenant was also once called
00:25:57turned to end up being called
00:25:58who was nice.
00:25:59Which one had been able to attend
00:26:01was great.
00:26:02Luckily there was one of the most
00:26:02least that I was worried
00:26:03when there was a club
00:26:03cannot use.
00:26:04If she's done this Suzanne
00:26:05as she said,
00:26:07well, it wasn't enough.
00:26:07The microphone
00:26:07was hers that I've done
00:26:08been three to four years
00:26:09where guys did rap
00:26:10and have somebody
00:26:11had 37.
00:26:11I was Braun
00:26:12empez our by
00:26:13having her
00:26:16and even
00:26:19my wife
00:26:19met her
00:26:21which
00:26:21was
00:26:23who
00:26:23Before the afternoon is over, I'm sure we'll have an announcement.
00:26:30Nothing could please us more, Colonel.
00:26:32Never, my dear.
00:26:38Miss Lisa.
00:26:40This is a subject which I wish to bring up for some time.
00:26:43I trust you'll forgive me if I presume to mention.
00:26:45I hope I've allowed myself.
00:26:47It may be unnecessary of me to mention that ever since you first came to my attention,
00:26:51I've been most favorably impressed.
00:26:53And I have every reason to believe that your parents are not opposed to my keeping company.
00:26:57That is, steady company with you.
00:26:59But, Lieutenant, I...
00:27:00Oh, please allow me to finish.
00:27:03As far as my prospects are concerned,
00:27:05you must be aware by now that it's generally believed by my uncle and others
00:27:08that I have the qualifications for an outstanding military career.
00:27:10Well, there's no doubt of that.
00:27:12Naturally, it's too soon to discuss any definite steps.
00:27:14We should know each other for a reasonable time.
00:27:16But, Lieutenant, I'm sorry, it's impossible.
00:27:18Impossible?
00:27:20Please don't ask me to explain, but...
00:27:22But I certainly must insist.
00:27:23Is there someone else?
00:27:25Yes.
00:27:26I'm engaged to be married.
00:27:28Engaged to be married?
00:27:29I should have told you before, but I didn't realize how...
00:27:31The whole time you've been in Lentz, I haven't seen you in anyone's company.
00:27:34He doesn't live in Lentz.
00:27:34He lives in Vienna.
00:27:35In Vienna?
00:27:36He writes music.
00:27:38He's a musician.
00:27:39But how can that be?
00:27:40Your mother and father, they've given my uncle every encouragement.
00:27:43You mean you're engaged to a man and your parents don't even know him?
00:27:48Oh.
00:27:49I'm sorry, I...
00:27:51Oh.
00:27:53Then, please.
00:27:55It won't be long now.
00:27:56No, the wine.
00:27:58The wine.
00:27:58Waiter, the wine.
00:27:59The wine.
00:27:59Hup!
00:28:13Hup!
00:28:14But I don't understand.
00:28:40Lisa, what happened?
00:28:42Anthony, what happened?
00:28:43Nothing.
00:28:44But after all...
00:28:44But you must have said something.
00:28:46What did you say to him?
00:28:47Well, I only told him the truth.
00:28:49The truth.
00:28:49What do you mean the truth?
00:28:51What did you say to him?
00:28:52I told him I wasn't free.
00:28:56What?
00:28:57My poor parents.
00:28:58For them, this was the end.
00:29:01For me, it was a new beginning.
00:29:02Vienna, when I saw it again, seemed to have taken on a new splendor.
00:29:11All the time I'd been away, I thought of it longingly as your city.
00:29:16Now it was our city.
00:29:19Madame Spitzer's, where I found work, was the kind of establishment where one learns many things.
00:29:26Miss Lisa, please.
00:29:27Coming.
00:29:27Coming.
00:29:27Coming.
00:29:28Now, hold your breath.
00:29:41Miss Lisa, we are waiting.
00:29:55Very pretty.
00:29:57Yes.
00:29:58Very charming.
00:30:25Very charming indeed.
00:30:28Do you think...
00:30:29She's not like the others.
00:30:31I don't understand that girl, but every evening, as soon as the shutters are closed, off she goes straight home.
00:30:37Really?
00:30:43Madame Spitzer spoke the truth.
00:30:45I was not like the others.
00:30:48Nobody waited for me.
00:30:49Off I went, but to the only place that had ever seemed home to me.
00:30:57Night after night, I returned to the same spot.
00:31:03But you never noticed, but you never noticed me.
00:31:05But you never noticed me.
00:31:05Until one evening.
00:31:07But you never noticed me.
00:31:09Until one evening.

00:32:30You like to listen to street singers?
00:32:34Yes.
00:32:34Neither do I.
00:32:40I should introduce myself.
00:32:42No. I know who you are.
00:32:44I suppose sooner or later, we'll have to decide where we're walking to.
00:32:58I have something I should call off.
00:33:00Well, I almost never get to the place I start out for anyway.
00:33:04But I can't believe it.
00:33:17Oh, well, I don't know.
00:33:47Very charming.
00:33:51Anything else I can do for you, Mr. Brand?
00:33:53Will you please tell Balish I won't be at rehearsal this evening.
00:33:56Oh, congratulations.

00:34:10Well, tell her.
00:34:11Well, I'll tell her it was most important, and you had to work tonight.
00:34:16Yes, that's it.

00:34:18I'm sure.
00:34:20Oh, Stephan.
00:34:21Yes?
00:34:22I missed you yesterday.
00:34:23I have to talk with you.
00:34:24Well, later.
00:34:25I saw the manuscript of a concerto.
00:34:27It's a young man I met.
00:34:28Well.
00:34:28His father owns half of the car in Toshambu.
00:34:31I thought perhaps it was something for one of your concerts.
00:34:35If you just glance at it.
00:34:36Well, I'll talk to you tomorrow.
00:34:37Tomorrow.
00:34:38Now, don't be frightened.
00:34:57Even if it's not becoming, the lobster will pay no attention.
00:34:59that was wrong it is becoming now let's see when did they have lobster again friday how about
00:35:08friday oh week is a long time how about wednesday that's venison oh is pheasant on monday could
00:35:15you possibly make it on monday i've no engaged once at all i don't either we'll have dinner
00:35:21tomorrow night dina schnitzel excuse me herr brand but the lady in the next room if i'm not
00:35:27mistaken it's the countess rodensky wonders if you would do her the favor of signing her program of
00:35:32this afternoon's concert certainly she said mozart himself could not have done better how nice of
00:35:38her there you are thank the countess for the compliment thank you hebrew even though it's
00:35:42starting the least deserved four years ago when you played the d minor you remember that the morning
00:35:48review also compared you to a young mozart i was very young there was that much resemblance
00:35:53you like it
00:35:57while pollicella it's called the first thing you do see when you come down the other side of the
00:36:05out the italians say it's such a good wine because the grapes have their roots in the valley
00:36:10and their eyes on the mountains please please what please talk about yourself
00:36:18i believe you really want to hear about me why oh never mind why
00:36:24well the truth is i've had rather an easy time of it people accepted my music very quickly
00:36:32perhaps too quickly sometimes it's easier to please others than oneself what are you going to say
00:36:41you know you don't talk very much well i can't say it very well but yes
00:36:47sometimes i felt when you were playing that go on that you haven't quite found i don't know what it is
00:36:56what you're looking for
00:36:58how long have you been hiding in my piano
00:37:02now never mind explaining i just assume you're a sorceress
00:37:07and that you can make yourself very tiny
00:37:10it might be a good thing to have a sorceress for a friend
00:37:14who knows
00:37:16you may be able to help me someday
00:37:20how could i help you
00:37:31so that's what you've been thinking about
00:37:34you're a very strange girl
00:37:37whoever you are and wherever you came from
00:37:40don't you have any problems
00:37:42not important ones
00:37:44it's a long while since anyone did that for me

00:38:56close
00:38:57i hope not
00:38:58i never come here in the season
00:39:02it's more pleasant in the winter
00:39:04i don't know why
00:39:05it's perhaps because you prefer to imagine how it will be in the spring
00:39:09because if it is spring then there's nothing to imagine nothing to wish for
00:39:12is there anything about me you don't know
00:39:15a few things
00:39:16for instance i i don't know if one day they'll make a works figure of you and put you in there because you'll be so famous
00:39:22well if they do will you pay your penny to come in and see me if you'll come alive
00:39:28now i see you as a little girl
00:39:42when my father was alive we traveled a lot we went nearly everywhere
00:39:51been wonderful times
00:39:52i didn't know you traveled so much
00:39:54yes
00:39:55perhaps we've been to some of the same places
00:39:57no i don't think so
00:39:59where did you go
00:40:01well it was a long time but um for instance there was rio de jeniro
00:40:05beautiful exotic rio with its botanical gardens its avenue of palms
00:40:09sugarloaf mountain and uh the harbor where you could look down and see the flying fishes
00:40:14we're in venice
00:40:16yes we've arrived
00:40:17now where would you like to go next france england russia
00:40:20switzerland
00:40:21switzerland
00:40:21excuse me a moment while i talk with the engineer
00:40:23you and the lady are you enjoying the trip
00:40:32very much we've decided on switzerland
00:40:33there you are thank you
00:40:36oh thank you
00:40:38switzerland
00:40:40switzerland
00:40:42so you were looking down at the flying fish
00:41:07then what
00:41:08aren't you going to finish the trip
00:41:11well there weren't any trips
00:41:13do you mind
00:41:14you see my father had a friend in a travel bureau
00:41:16my father worked across the street
00:41:18he was an assistant superintendent of the municipal waterworks
00:41:21and he used to bring folders home with him
00:41:23with pictures in them
00:41:24we have stacks
00:41:25and uh in the evening he would put on his traveling coat
00:41:28that's what he called it
00:41:28uh of course i was very young
00:41:30and he would say where shall we go this evening
00:41:32and i would say um vera cruz
00:41:34because it's a beautiful name
00:41:35and then he would say
00:41:37it's summer there
00:41:38you don't want to roast like a coffee bean do you
00:41:40so you never did get there
00:41:42no it was just like our trip to the land of the midnight sun
00:41:45oh it stopped you this time
00:41:46the weather
00:41:46i thought of india
00:41:48but then father remembered that it was the rainy season
00:41:50your father was an expert on climbers
00:41:52my mother used to say that he knew what the weather was everywhere except home
00:41:55what mountain is that
00:41:58that's the matterhorn
00:41:59have you climbed it
00:42:01tell me when you climb up a mountain

00:42:25yes
00:42:26i can see them
00:42:27why do you like to climb mountains
00:42:30well i suppose because
00:42:32no matter how high you climb
00:42:34there's always a higher one
00:42:36and you like to imagine that the other one's even more wonderful
00:42:38like the spring the park
00:42:39now you know far too much about me already
00:42:41and i know almost nothing about you

00:48:42Congratulations, my dear.
00:48:44Stefan, the train is leaving.
00:49:08Just a minute.
00:49:11How long have you been standing here?
00:49:15I don't want to go.
00:49:17Do you believe that?
00:49:19I'll be here when you get back.
00:49:22Yes.
00:49:22Stefan, hurry, please.
00:49:25I still know so little about you.
00:49:28You like mystery.
00:49:31That a woman like you exists, and I found you, that's mystery enough.
00:49:38Say, Stefan, the way you said it last night.
00:49:43Stefan.
00:49:45It's as though you've said it all your life.
00:49:47Better hurry, sir.
00:49:48Yes.
00:49:49Bye.
00:49:50Stefan.
00:49:51Yes.
00:49:55Won't be long.
00:49:56I'll be back in two weeks.
00:50:02Goodbye.
00:50:03Two weeks.
00:50:08Stefan, how little you knew yourself.
00:50:26That train was taking you out of my life.
00:50:28That train was taking you out of my life.
00:50:31I am so the only way.
00:50:33I am so the only way to start.
00:50:34I am so the only way to start.
00:50:39You live well.
00:50:42I am so the only way to start.
00:50:43I am so the only way to start.
00:50:50he was a married man does he live here in Vienna if we knew who he was he might be
00:51:17willing to accept his responsibility you won't tell us his name
00:51:25but you haven't the means to take care of the child we'll get along
00:51:37it's your duty to tell us when a man does the sort of thing I'm feeling tired would you go
00:51:47you may wonder why I never came to you for help I wanted to be one woman you had known
00:51:56who asked you for nothing my deep regret is that you never saw your son
00:52:02there were times during those years I prefer not to remember but this I can assure you
00:52:11whatever the cost he repaid me a thousand times you would have been proud of him too
00:52:18when he was almost nine as much for his sake as mine
00:52:23I married you know who my husband is Johan Starfer married me knowing the truth about us and about
00:52:32our child oh lovely thank you Johan what a nice birthday this and Stefan home you know I'm not
00:52:42good at saying such things but Lisa I want you to be as happy as you've made me if I were really
00:52:48a deserving wife I'd be ready on time you are happy you are why shouldn't I be
00:53:04good at saying goodnight hello still another talent he has a lot of talents but not for finishing his
00:53:20milk yes or for brushing his teeth made in Switzerland Switzerland must be a very nice place don't you

00:54:16in just a minute there's no hurry goodnight sir goodnight
00:54:26you know Stefan it might be nice if you could say goodnight father instead of goodnight sir
00:54:38but I've always said it that way I think you'd like it if you could manage a change supposing you
00:54:43said to me goodnight madam it would sound pretty silly wouldn't it now promise me that you'll go to
00:54:49sleep and not wait up for me I promise will you bring me a program of the opera I promise
00:54:54goodnight madam goodnight sir after all when a person treats you so much like his son
00:55:04he is in a sense your father all right mother if you say so goodnight
00:55:09the course of our lives can be changed by such little things so many passing by each intent on his own
00:55:27problems so many faces that one might easily have been lost I know now nothing happens by chance

00:55:42curtain going up second back curtain going up second back

00:56:0310 years ago he he showed great promise too bad with that talent he could have been a great pianist

01:03:12i shall do everything in my power
01:03:15to prevent it
01:03:17you
01:03:28Hello, darling. Wake up. It's time to go in your own room.
01:03:51Good night, Father. Good night. Did you hear? I just said it. Yes, darling. Tell me about the opera. Was it exciting?
01:04:21How's that? You're wonderful. You're wonderful. You've always been a wonderful boy.
01:04:34You don't know how much that's meant to me, to be so proud of you always. I know it.
01:04:51Don't worry, Mother. You'll see. Two weeks will go like an express train. You're sure you're coming?
01:05:16Of course. I promise. You won't even get my room in the village for me.
01:05:19I'll get you the same one you had last time, the one with the balcony.
01:05:23Didn't I tell you that compartment was quarantined?
01:05:29I'm sorry, ma'am, but this compartment has to be closed up. I'll take you to the next car, folks.
01:05:35That's good. I'll be near the locomotive.
01:05:38I'll take the port.
01:05:42Do we have two locomotives on our train?
01:05:44We usually get along with one, but I'll talk to the engineer.
01:05:49How about that one over there?
01:05:50You can have two seats in there.
01:05:51He's traveling alone. He's being left.
01:05:53Don't worry, madam. I'll take good care of him.
01:05:56We leave in about a minute.
01:05:58Better hurry and get your seat, sir.
01:06:00You'll see better if you sit over here.
01:06:03And if you get to, you can put up the window.
01:06:05Yes, Mother.
01:06:05Stephen, you know how I've longed, Sophie, your being home.
01:06:13And now I can't even explain it.
01:06:15Maybe someday, very soon, I'll be able to give you a reason.
01:06:19But now I just have to believe that it's for your own good.
01:06:23I don't mind going back so much, especially when you're coming so soon.
01:06:27It'll be like two vacations.
01:06:29No, I don't.
01:06:30Then I'll show you the new walk we found since you were there last time.
01:06:33Better get out, lady.
01:06:34You're right, Nick. Often, my child.
01:06:43Yes, Mother. But I can't write very often. Not in two weeks.
01:06:49Goodbye, Mother. Two weeks.
01:07:04What is it? What happened?
01:07:17What is it? What happened?
01:07:35Someone hurt?
01:07:37No reason to get alarmed.
01:07:39They say it's a case of typhus.
01:07:40Typhus?
01:07:41Yes. Typhus. On the train.
01:07:59Yes, ma'am?
01:08:00It's Mr. Brand. Yes, Stephen Brand.
01:08:03Brand?
01:08:03One moment, please.
01:08:08Friends.
01:08:16Could you tell me, has Mr. Brand been here this evening?
01:08:19Oh, Mr. Brand is no longer a customer of ours.
01:08:22Not for some time.
01:08:24Mr. Brand these days is more likely to be found at the Blitz.
01:08:59Good evening, ma'am. I still have nice flowers left. I'm closing up and I'll sell you a nice bouquet. Very cheap.
01:09:13I'll take those. The white ones. Don't bother to wrap them up. Doesn't matter.
01:09:29I'll take those. The white ones. Don't bother to wrap them up.
01:09:43Now you can drive on.
01:10:13Step in, Brian, is he?
01:10:47Step in, Brian.
01:11:17Well, this is a surprise, but I assure you, a very happy one.
01:11:40And John didn't prepare me for such a pleasant occasion.
01:11:42I thought last night the darkness might have played tricks with my eyes.
01:11:51You're even more beautiful than I imagined.
01:11:54Very kind of you.
01:11:56This is just the hour for a little late supper.
01:11:59Or is it too late?
01:12:00Well, it makes no difference. You're here.
01:12:02And as far as I'm concerned, all the clocks in the world have stopped.
01:12:06Excuse me a moment.
01:12:07John!
01:12:09John, I'm sorry to send you out so late.
01:12:11Would you go down to the corner and get a few things?
01:12:14We're going to have some supper.
01:12:15The usual things.
01:12:24John makes life possible for a hopelessly single man.
01:12:28She fascinates you, too.
01:12:31You remember, the Greeks built a statue to a god they didn't know, but hoped someday would come to them.
01:12:37Well, mine happens to be a goddess.
01:12:39And you never found her?
01:12:42For years.
01:12:44I never woke in the morning, but what I said to myself.
01:12:47Perhaps today she will come.
01:12:49And my life will really begin.
01:12:52Sometimes it seemed very near.
01:12:56Or now I'm older and I know better.
01:12:57Even for yourself, you don't play anymore.
01:13:05Oh, I remember.
01:13:05Last night you were kind enough to be interested.
01:13:08I forgot.
01:13:09John locked it when I went away.
01:13:11Nowadays I'm away quite a lot of the time.
01:13:13I'll ask him for the key when he comes back.
01:13:18You're very lovely.
01:13:20It's a beautiful dress.
01:13:23How could you do that, give it up altogether?
01:13:26If you're so curious, I'll tell you.
01:13:29One night I came back to this room.
01:13:32I'd given a concert like all the others.
01:13:34Not better, not worse.
01:13:36Afterwards, they said all the usual things.
01:13:40The things you say when you're not really convinced.
01:13:44So I happened to look in the mirror.
01:13:45This one here.
01:13:48A young prodigy was no longer young.
01:13:50Certainly wasn't prodigious.
01:13:54Since then, I've found other things to do.
01:13:57More amusing things.
01:13:58I knew last night.
01:14:07Didn't you?
01:14:08I haven't even offered to fix you a drink.
01:14:31Stefan.
01:14:32Yes?
01:14:34I came here.
01:14:34I have something to tell you.
01:14:36If it has to do with you, I'm very interested.
01:14:38It has to do with us.
01:14:40Now, we can't possibly be serious this early in the morning.
01:14:43At least not without a glass of champagne.
01:14:45It won't take a minute.
01:14:46Come on.
01:14:49Champagne tastes much better after midnight, don't you think?
01:14:52Much better.
01:14:54I just came back from America.
01:14:55It's a fascinating country.
01:14:57The men are fond of money,
01:14:59and their wives are fond of Europeans.
01:15:01Must have been a wonderful trip.
01:15:03Do you travel a great deal?
01:15:06Well, I suppose you won't believe me.
01:15:10But I couldn't get you out of my mind all day.
01:15:14No, I don't believe you.
01:15:15If only I'd known you were coming.
01:15:18To tell you the truth,
01:15:19I never dared hope you could arrange it so soon.
01:15:22But you're so clever.
01:15:23You manage so beautifully.
01:15:25Do you know you're a very strange woman?
01:15:28Am I?
01:15:29Something you said last night keeps running through my mind.
01:15:34What was that?
01:15:36I'll tell you in just a moment.
01:15:38As soon as I get the eyes.
01:15:41Are you getting lonely out there?
01:15:44Very lonely.
01:15:45I'd come to tell you about us.
01:15:54To offer you my whole life.
01:15:57But you didn't even remember me.
01:15:59Bye.
01:15:59Bye.
01:16:02Bye.
01:16:23Bye.
01:16:24Bye.
01:16:25Bye.
01:16:25Take you somewhere, young lady?
01:16:41Anywhere at all?
01:16:44Makes no difference.
01:16:55I don't remember where I went.
01:17:11Time moved past me, not in days or in hours, but in the distance it put between us.
01:17:20And I could think again.
01:17:21I went to my son, but it was too late.
01:17:26He died last night of typhus, without even knowing I was there.
01:17:33Now I'm alone.
01:17:35My head throbs and my temples are burning.
01:17:39Perhaps God has been kind and I too have caught the fever.
01:17:45If this letter reaches you, believe this, that I love you now as I've always loved you.
01:17:52My life can be measured by the moments I've had with you and our child.
01:17:58If only you could have shared those moments.
01:18:02If only you could have recognized what was always yours.
01:18:06If you found what was never lost.
01:18:08Ronnie...
01:18:09Connie.

01:21:34Oh, if only you could have recognized what was always yours.
01:21:39Could have found what was never last.
01:21:48Oh, God.
01:22:12Oh, God.
