Short filmTranscript
00:00:23My bags are packed.
00:00:25I'm taking only a few necessities.
00:00:33I've come to say goodbye, Moritz.
00:00:37I'm leaving you.
00:00:39Today? I mean now?
00:00:44There's no point in prolonging this.
00:00:47I suppose not.
00:00:51Vieti.
00:00:56Vieti.
00:00:58Please don't go.
00:01:00Please don't leave me.
00:01:03Moritz, I'm in love with Johnny.
00:01:08You are sure it's really love?
00:01:12I'm really in love with him, Moritz.
00:01:15That sounds quite final.
00:01:18Very final.
00:01:20We're being married tomorrow.
00:01:24Tomorrow?
00:01:28I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:01:33It all happened so fast, so incredibly fast.
00:01:38It's hard for me to grasp that everything between us has ended.
00:01:48It's hard for me, Moritz.
00:01:49It's hard for me to see you hurt like this, but you don't really need me.
00:01:55You don't need anyone.
00:01:58I'm sorry.
00:01:58Shawnee does.
00:02:04Still, Yeti, have you thought this thing through?
00:02:08No, that was a stupid question.
00:02:11A woman in love knows only that she is in love.
00:02:15Nothing else matters for the moment.
00:02:19For the moment?
00:02:21Yes.
00:02:23What about next year?
00:02:25Or the year after that?
00:02:28You are nearly ten years older than Shani.
00:02:31I know.
00:02:34I know.
00:02:35A woman can grow old very quickly.
00:02:38Aging can happen almost overnight.
00:02:40I don't want to see mankind, darling.
00:02:43But Shani is a dashing personality.
00:02:46Women threw themselves at him, you know that.
00:02:49So when the first wrinkles start coming,
00:02:53what then?
00:02:56You find younger women.
00:02:58And are you willing to face that?
00:03:01I can't help myself.
00:03:03And Shani's mother,
00:03:05considering our relationship.
00:03:07How is she taking this?
00:03:09Very badly.
00:03:12On a vow she won't even attend the wedding.
00:03:15Are you willing to face that too?
00:03:17I must go.
00:03:19What about Carl?
00:03:20I don't dare tell Shani.
00:03:22I can well understand that.
00:03:24I can only pray that Carl stays in Paris.
00:03:27Of course.
00:03:29I see that you are well provided for.
00:03:35You can have anything you want.
00:03:45No, Moritz.
00:03:48You're a sweet, wonderful person.
00:03:52And that was the most generous offer.
00:03:56But I'm leaving you as I came.
00:04:00All I want from you,
00:04:03and I beg you for it,
00:04:07is your forgiveness.
00:04:26With you gone, with you gone,
00:04:32life will lose its special flavor.
00:04:36With you gone, with you gone,
00:04:41what will fill the aching void?
00:04:47No one there to wake,
00:04:50to make my morning meaningful.
00:04:55Nor to share the warmth, the words, the wine,
00:05:00the jokes we so enjoyed.
00:05:05With you here, with you here,
00:05:10we had something rare together.
00:05:14Then a word, and a door,
00:05:18and the world turned commonplace.
00:05:24In a life I'd come to center more and more,
00:05:29upon your face.
00:05:34How will I carry on,
00:05:41with you gone?
00:05:52With you gone, with you gone.
00:05:57Sir?
00:06:01Strauss will take it all for granted.
00:06:03That's the tragedy of it.
00:06:06He'll never realize how rare it is for a man to find a woman
00:06:10who could love so deeply,
00:06:13could sacrifice so much.
00:06:15About madame's clothes, sir,
00:06:17what will I do with them?
00:06:20Please, Hilde, that's all for today.
00:06:22With you here, with you here,
00:06:28we were two so right together.
00:06:33In our wants, in our ways,
00:06:37we were clearly of a kind.
00:06:42You're the perfect life's companion,
00:06:47For my heart and for my mind.
00:06:54How will I carry on, with you gone?
00:07:03You're the perfect life's companion.
00:07:03Oh, my God.
00:07:17Well?
00:07:19Mother meant it.
00:07:20She won't be here.
00:07:25It's about time
00:07:29Yet he's very upset
00:07:31I know how I would have felt
00:07:33If your mother hadn't come to our wedding
00:07:35Yes
00:07:38Well, it's quite obvious now
00:07:40He's not coming
00:07:44It's time
00:07:45She's still not here?
00:07:47Mother's heart is filled with such bitterness
00:07:50Well, can't we wait?
00:07:52Just a little longer
00:07:53I'm afraid it's no use
00:08:09May I come in?
00:08:13I was hoping that I wouldn't find you at all
00:08:15That you had already left her for your son's wedding
00:08:18And why should a personal matter
00:08:19between Johan and myself concern you?
00:08:22Baron Tedesco
00:08:23Because it also concerns
00:08:25Yet he takes
00:08:27A woman I still love very deeply
00:08:29Any breach between the two of you
00:08:31Could affect her happiness and her marriage
00:08:33You indulged this woman with every luxury
00:08:36And now she even has Johan
00:08:38Why should she care whether I go to the wedding or not?
00:08:41It means nothing to her
00:08:42She cares very much
00:08:44Because she's in love with Johan
00:08:45Because she's in love with Johan
00:08:45To her he's just
00:08:46A new play toy
00:08:48A whim
00:08:48A passing fancy
00:08:50A new luxury of the moment
00:08:53How little you know yet
00:08:54Of Mrs Strauss
00:08:56She left all these luxuries
00:08:58You're talking about behind her
00:09:02She has nothing?
00:09:05Well
00:09:07Nothing more than when she came to me
00:09:13Good day Mrs Strauss
00:09:25Good day Mrs Strauss
00:09:35Thank you
00:09:48Good day Mrs Strauss
00:09:54Thank you
00:09:56Thank you
00:10:25Can you forgive a very foolish woman?
00:10:40Then came the great years, his fame, his name, his stature grew.
00:10:48No more the ballrooms and the grand cafes of early days.
00:10:55Now in hallowed halls where masters dwell, he plays.
00:11:01And she is ever near him, as the master walks poor forth.
00:11:09And she is in the music, music born of their happiness.
00:11:17She never tires of listening, for listening she lives again.
00:11:24Five worlds embroidered years of love.
00:11:35Ooh, the esaress
00:11:40Ha, la, la, la.
00:11:43Ha, la, la, la, la, la,
00:11:47Ma la, la, la, la, la.

00:14:03What a wonderful day this has been.
00:14:05Just you and I by ourselves.
00:14:08I've enjoyed it too.

00:14:14¶¶
00:14:23¶¶
00:14:25You know how I'd be lost without you.

00:15:59adversary present. Well, it's very nice. And thoughtful of you, darling. And I certainly have been after you to have
00:16:08your portrait painted. Who was the artist? Oh, a woman, Greta Holman. An up-and-coming artist. Highly thought of.
00:16:15Young? Pretty? So-so. What were you up to today? Oh, Johann Heerbeck dropped by. I'm still not interested. Too
00:16:27bad, Charlie. His choral group is
00:16:29in desperate need of new material. Look, Yeti, I wrote the one song for Bala Ishal, but that's it. I'm
00:16:37king in my field, and that's where I'm staying. All right, darling. But anyway, I'd like to help you. Mr.
00:16:44Heerbeck and I went through your father's music and found this one, the Benefit Wars. Don't remember it. We thought
00:16:51it might work out well with lyrics.
00:17:10Hold it. Try that sustained note of major third higher. Excuse me. Let me try.
00:17:34Then it should go something like this.
00:17:47That's how it began. Father's modest melody lighted the fire that created the waltz that ignited the world.
00:18:01But not quite yet.
00:18:06The enemy gave
00:18:11Dear God.
00:18:13A glimmer of light.
00:18:16Give us
00:18:17It's night.
00:18:20Carnival's come.
00:18:22Huff huff, huff, huff, huff, huff.
00:18:24Hope he's not so glad.
00:18:27With love we're not...
00:18:33this is awful i know i know you promised me that dietrich would write the lyrics why didn't he
00:18:38because shani insisted it should be done by a man named wild i never heard it before well
00:18:43i'm very upset if this fails i may never get shani to write for the voice again
00:18:48hello darling how's the rehearsal going hello everybody perfect
00:18:56oh meet a friend of mine you was a vile and his talented daughter lily
00:19:01yet he lily is a promising singer dearest may i see you for a moment alone excuse me
00:19:11look johan yes the last thing i would want to do would be to hurt your friend's feelings
00:19:18but but what well frankly his lyrics ruin your music i'm sorry to have to say this but it's
00:19:24true oh in whose opinion in everyone's a glimmer of light with us it's night carnivals come ho ho
00:19:29ha you can ridicule anything with sarcasm but don't you see the lyrics are sarcastic they're
00:19:35inflammatory against the monarchy wild has used your beautiful waltz as a political message
00:19:41oh yeti please oh darling darling you're a genius when it comes to writing music but still naive about
00:19:48lyrics well it's too it's too late to do anything about it no no it isn't please shani just listen
00:19:55to those words again and listen with an open mind now you wait a minute no it's there's time to
00:19:58get
00:19:59dietrich even if i were to agree about the lyrics i still couldn't do a thing like that to wild
00:20:06is it mr wild you're concerned with or mr wild's daughter leave her out of this lily's a sweet girl
00:20:13and young enough she seemed quite pleasant she had nothing to do with it i wonder
00:20:22darling if that's all
00:20:26shani do you love me what's that got to do with it everything
00:20:31and if you love me if you really love me this once do as i ask i'm sorry eddie
00:20:42i couldn't do that to you
00:20:54and so i can blame the blue danube
00:20:59for the first serious rift between shani and myself
00:21:06on top of this the performance was a disaster
00:21:09and i'm afraid you'll never write another song you shouldn't take this one failure so to heart
00:21:14still as shani said the devil take the walls he's only sorry about the finish he had high hopes for
00:21:20that he'll soon forget about last night his career will survive forget last night you can both dry
00:21:27your tears what do you think i've just been invited to play at the international exposition
00:21:34thursday we're leaving for paris paris oh wonderful oh of course oh but how can you shani you you have
00:21:42so
00:21:42many commitments here oh joseph will fill in for me while i'm gone but thursday's only two days off i
00:21:47i don't think i can leave that quickly there's so much for rain you've managed before in short notice
00:21:52you'll do it again johann and i have been writing a polka together yes see what you think of it
00:22:03yeti what's wrong wrong there's nothing wrong you don't want shani to go to paris why
00:22:11well for example he'd be competing with offenbach the toast of paris you know full well that shani's
00:22:17better than offenbach you've always said so yourself besides appearing at the paris exposition
00:22:24could be a stepping stone to the boston centennial have you considered that
00:22:28yes i have from what i hear the boston concert will be the biggest musical event of all time
00:22:38yeti there is something else
00:22:42what is it come sit down you can trust me
00:23:15more and more johann is becoming interested in younger women
00:23:20it's killing me
00:23:25anna i don't want to lose shani i desperately don't want to lose him
00:23:30it wouldn't take much now to destroy our marriage
00:23:34that's why i so fear going to paris i think you better tell me everything
00:23:43there's a man in paris he would stop at nothing to get money including blackmail who is this man
00:23:55his name is carl carl carl who
00:24:01carl treffs your brother
00:24:06but a relative of course yeti what are you holding back

00:25:08if it slips your mind.
00:25:10I'll be there.
00:25:12I'll be there.
00:25:14I'll be there.
00:25:15I'll be there.
00:25:17I'll be there.
00:25:18Your French engineers are so ingenious.
00:25:23Yelly, come here.
00:25:26Look at this ingenious little place.
00:25:28We can be alive.
00:25:36Please don't be discouraged by the poor attendants.
00:25:39It's just that you are still not too well known here.
00:25:42I understand.
00:25:43And there is so much competing with you.
00:25:45Everyone is using the occasion to give private balls.
00:25:48Yes?
00:25:48There are two or three, some nights.
00:25:50I'll be there.
00:26:05I'll be there.
00:26:08I'll be there.
00:26:15I'll be there.
00:26:30I'll be there.
00:26:35I'll be there.
00:26:38I'll be there.
00:26:40I'll be there.
00:26:43To get my hair fixed be presentable for a luncheon at the embassy this quickly.
00:26:47It's just impossible.
00:26:50Besides, I have a fierce headache.
00:26:52Oh?
00:26:54You didn't mention it earlier.
00:26:56Well, it's become worse.
00:26:58If I feel better, darling, I'll join you later.
00:27:02Here's your music.
00:27:13Hadn't you better leave now so that you can call off your rehearsal?
00:27:18Well, I guess you're right.
00:27:20You should be leaving.
00:27:27Well, I hope your headache is better.
00:27:31Promise me you'll rest till I get back.
00:27:34Will you?
00:27:36Bye.
00:27:56In all this haste, it just occurred to me, I have the music here, but who's going to play it?
00:28:00The princess herself plays piano.
00:28:03Oh, the music was written more for the violin.
00:28:07Wait here, I'll quickly get my fiddle.
00:28:08All right.
00:28:35.
00:28:51Just getting my violin.
00:29:01Darling?
00:29:24I've been thinking, what a fortunate coincidence that you happen to come to Paris at this time.
00:30:01I've been thinking, what a fortunate one is that I've been thinking about.
00:30:06may i compliment you on your playing princess pauline thank you i wish i could return the
00:30:12compliment but it would be as presumptuous as an amateur artist telling titian he painted well
00:30:17oh you're very kind well i'm a little concerned all the waltzes we have played so far
00:30:24are in an allegro temple yes why well although the parisians like the quadrilles even faster than
00:30:31we are used to them in vienna they prefer a slower waltz what about this one it's marked moderato
00:30:43oh no not that piece anyway it was written for a choral group it should never have been included
00:30:50it got in by mistake still the temp was right for the parisians could we start here so you see
00:30:57either i get their money or i face prison i no longer have any way of raising such an amount
00:31:05one hundred thousand golden it's impossible i simply must go
00:31:11oh i think you'll find a way or perhaps you'd prefer that i speak to strauss about it
00:31:20i'll send you what i can for now
00:31:36how's your headache darling better
00:31:43did you have a nice rest yes i i did as you asked is anything wrong
00:31:51i don't know is there exactly what's on your mind charlie
00:31:58you found plenty of excuses for not going with me today in spite of the importance of the lunch
00:32:04still you managed to go someplace elsewhere and why someplace else i came back for my violin you
00:32:13weren't here i felt like some fresh air i went for a walk a walk to cure a splitting headache
00:32:21certainly refused to be cross-examined this way i don't wonder you're trying to accuse me of
00:32:26something yes of lying to me you could have gotten ready in time if you'd wanted to
00:32:32and you didn't have a headache and just why did i pass up that invitation
00:32:36what woman wouldn't jump at the chance to lunch at the embassy with princess metternich
00:32:41unless she had something more important in mind
00:32:45oh are you accusing me of having some secret lover is that the idea
00:32:49because if that's what you're doing i'm leaving right now
00:32:54well
00:32:56i didn't say that you implied it all right but what about the blue danube
00:33:02how dare you slip it in with the other music
00:33:05no i'm stuck with the damn tune
00:33:29oh and they're nice and close
00:33:31you
00:33:32very
00:33:36that's very
00:33:38good
00:33:38good
00:33:39good
00:33:39good
00:33:41good
00:33:41I don't know.
00:34:11I don't know.
00:34:54I don't know.
00:35:18I don't know.
00:35:44I don't know.
00:35:57But I understand they have bought us for nearly a million copies.
00:36:00The sales have been phenomenal.
00:36:02What's happened to the money?
00:36:03It's Mrs. Strauss, sir.
00:36:05I'm afraid she's made some rather heavy drafts.
00:36:07How heavy?
00:36:07Over 50,000 gulden.
00:36:1150,000.
00:36:13I'm afraid so, Mr. Havemeyer.
00:36:17Why should I gamble on a new field?
00:36:19But it wouldn't be a gamble.
00:36:22Not if you wrote the music.
00:36:23Don't you see that, darling?
00:36:25After all, Deflater Mouse was a success in Paris as a play.
00:36:28Max couldn't have provided you with better librettos than Hoffman and Genet.
00:36:31It's a perfect combination.
00:36:32Well, I don't know.
00:36:33Here, let me pick a page at random.
00:36:36See what you can do with it.
00:36:39Come, my dear, don't be stubborn.
00:36:41You're acting like a diffident little boy.
00:36:49How do you do, Mr. Havemeyer?
00:36:51I want to see Mr. Strauss.
00:36:52Alone, please.
00:36:57Pardon me, ma'am.
00:36:58Yes.
00:36:59But there's a gentleman here to see Mr. Strauss.
00:37:02Who?
00:37:02Mr. Havemeyer.
00:37:04Send him in.
00:37:06Mr. Havemeyer insist on seeing you alone, sir.
00:37:10Alone?
00:37:11How odd.
00:37:13Well, excuse me, dear.
00:37:19Hello, Havemeyer.
00:37:20What's this all about?
00:37:21I've come right to the point, Mr. Strauss.
00:37:24Oh, dear God.
00:37:25What would I do?
00:37:45You've gone through 50,000 gulden in barely three months.
00:37:50How is that possible?
00:37:52That much?
00:37:54Well, whatever the amount, it was spent for a good reason.
00:37:57Good reason?
00:37:58What excuse could there possibly be for squandering that kind of money?
00:38:02To begin with, whenever you move into a new home, there are always heavy expenses.
00:38:06You know that.
00:38:08We're talking about 50,000 gulden.
00:38:12You don't have to shout.
00:38:14I've had to buy a lot of new clothes.
00:38:16I must dress well, especially now that we're being invited to so many important functions.
00:38:21You want a wife you can be proud of, don't you?
00:38:24Yes.
00:38:25All right, then.
00:38:28Where are the bills for these fabulous dresses?
00:38:33Show them to me.
00:38:35I don't know.
00:38:37I don't know.
00:38:38You're getting me confused.
00:38:40I suppose they're around someplace.
00:38:42Around someplace?
00:38:44Exactly where did that money go?
00:38:47Please, Shani, please.
00:38:50I can't answer right off.
00:38:51I demand to know.
00:38:53Demand to know.
00:38:53You heard me.
00:38:54Shani, don't you ever speak to me in that tone.
00:38:56Until I get an answer, I'll speak to you in any way I choose.
00:39:09Shani, wait, please.
00:39:12Listen to me.
00:39:14Say oui, say ja, say yes
00:39:20To me, to love tonight
00:39:28A land which counts for less
00:39:35Just as long as the meaning is right
00:39:44It's you, it's you, it's you, c'est toi
00:39:52I'm burning a true process
00:39:58C'est si, c'est ne, c'est da
00:40:05So long as you say yes
00:40:12Say oui, say ja, say yes
00:40:18To me, to love tonight
00:40:23The land which counts for less
00:40:28Just as long as the meaning is right
00:40:35It's you, it's you, it's you, c'est toi
00:40:43I'm burning a true process
00:40:50C'est si, c'est ne, c'est da
00:41:16But what about you, ma'am?
00:41:24I'm not hungry.
00:41:33Good evening, Shani
00:41:34Hello, Max
00:41:36Before you join your friends in there
00:41:38I'd appreciate the work with you
00:41:42Miss Lily Weil
00:41:43Max Steiner, the director of the theater on the wing
00:41:45I was at your house today
00:41:47To see if you'd gone over the libretto
00:41:49Yes
00:41:50Yeti agrees with me
00:41:52You are the one man to write the music
00:41:55And we've got the one woman to sing it
00:41:58Who?
00:42:00I'll let Yeti tell you herself
00:42:02It was her idea
00:42:02Come on, Shani
00:42:04Now, I want you to go home
00:42:07And start on that score
00:42:09All right, Max
00:42:10I'll think about it
00:42:36One drink
00:42:37And slowly I relaxed
00:42:39My brain was overtaxed
00:42:41That little nip was just a lift
00:42:43I needed two drinks
00:42:44And I was slightly gay
00:42:46I had a fissile day
00:42:47And I deserved a bit of recreation
00:42:50Three drinks
00:42:51And there she was, so prim and slender
00:42:53Four drinks
00:42:54I knew I'd soon unbend her
00:42:57Five drinks
00:42:58And she was in my power
00:42:59Like a helpless flower
00:43:01I could wrap around my little finger
00:43:03Six drinks
00:43:04And there we were in bed
00:43:06But we were wed, she said
00:43:08And she was right
00:43:10One drink
00:43:11Is what I shouldn't have had last night
00:43:16One drink
00:43:17And slowly I relaxed
00:43:19My brain was overtaxed
00:43:21That little nip was just a lift
00:43:23I needed two drinks
00:43:24And I was slightly gay
00:43:26I had a fissile day
00:43:28And I deserved a bit of recreation
00:43:30Three drinks
00:43:31And there she was, so prim and slender
00:43:33Four drinks
00:43:34I knew I'd soon unbend her
00:43:37Five drinks
00:43:38And she was in my power
00:43:40Like a helpless flower
00:43:41I could wrap around my little finger
00:43:44Six drinks
00:43:44And there we were in bed
00:43:46But we were wed, she said
00:43:48And she was right
00:43:52One drink
00:43:53Is what I shouldn't have had last night
00:44:03One drink

00:52:07excuse me
00:52:10excuse me
00:52:12excuse me
00:52:47Hello there.
00:52:50Yeti. Yeti, come over here, please.
00:52:51Uh, just a minute.
00:52:56Diagra, turn to Vienna.
00:52:58You know what would happen if the authorities discovered you here.
00:53:01If I can't raise that additional 50,000 guggen immediately, the consequences will be the same.
00:53:05It's out of the question.
00:53:07Would you rather I go to prison?
00:53:08Of course not.
00:53:09The scandal would hardly help your relations with Strasse.
00:53:12If you were doing an honest living like everybody else, you wouldn't be forever in trouble.
00:53:18Yeti.
00:53:19We're all waiting.
00:53:21I'll be right there.
00:53:23I can't give you anything more.
00:53:25It's impossible.
00:53:26Very well.
00:53:27I have no way of getting it.
00:53:29Then maybe I have.
00:53:32Good night.
00:53:34Carl.
00:53:36Carl.
00:53:37Moritz.
00:53:40You should notify the police.
00:53:42You ruin your life.
00:53:43It would only make matters worse.
00:53:45Yeti, will you please come up?
00:53:47These gentlemen just want one photograph.
00:53:49Let me help you.
00:53:50No.
00:53:51You're very kind.
00:53:53But no.
00:53:54Now.
00:53:54Yeti.
00:54:04Take this draft to the bank, get the money, and bring it to Mrs. Bjorn Strauss with this note.
00:54:21I'd like to see Mrs. Strauss.
00:54:23He's in a meeting with Mr. Steiner.
00:54:26I'll wait.
00:54:27What's the name, sir?
00:54:31Carl Treffs.
00:54:44Get in.
00:54:51I just had a visitor.
00:54:53Who?
00:54:54A common thief.
00:54:56An embezzler.
00:54:58Who?
00:55:00Your son.
00:55:02Your illegitimate son.
00:55:07So you've been using our money to keep that scoundrel from going to prison.
00:55:12After all, he is my son.
00:55:16I could hardly ask you for such an amount.
00:55:19Well, he can fry in hell before he gets anything more from me.
00:55:26And he had the impudence to demand another 50,000 gold.
00:55:30It brings back sordid memories of my own father and Emily and their five bastard children.
00:55:38Pardon me, ma'am, but there's a gentleman here to see you.
00:55:49Madam, from Baron Tedesco.
00:56:15Why did you lock that drawer?
00:56:18Out of force of habit, I guess.
00:56:20I never noticed it locked before.
00:56:24There's nothing important in there.
00:56:30Give me that key.
00:56:33Do you think I'm hiding a letter from a secret lover?
00:56:36Are we back to those suspicions again?
00:56:40I said, give me that key.
00:56:46Here.
00:57:00Where did you get that money?
00:57:11Baron Tedesco.
00:57:35Wait for me, would you?
00:57:37Wait for me, would you?
00:57:43What's happened?
00:57:44I'm leaving Sharny.
00:57:49To the depot.
00:57:50Oh, wait a minute, Yeti.
00:57:51Will you help me?
00:57:52Please, Yeti, will you listen to reason?
00:57:56My mind is made up.
00:57:58Will you listen to me?
00:57:59Will you listen to me?
00:58:13What was all this money doing on the floor?
00:58:15Where's it come from?
00:58:17Baron Tedesco.
00:58:19They have a rather nasty name for husbands in my position.
00:58:22You're out of your mind.
00:58:25I don't believe it.
00:58:30Let me read you this.
00:58:32I realize you said no when I offered to pay off Karl.
00:58:36Please reconsider.
00:58:37The 50,000 gulden has no importance to me.
00:58:40Your happiness with Sharny does.
00:58:44Moritz.
00:58:47Do you see that?
00:58:52Do you see that?
00:58:59Bro.
00:59:03Why?
00:59:04Why?
00:59:05Why all these lies?
00:59:09Why didn't Yeti tell me about her, son?
00:59:13You idiot.
00:59:16Yeti knew her marriage was held together by a thread.
00:59:19It's hopeless enough for a woman her age to have to fend off younger women
00:59:22without having an illegitimate thieving son come between you.
00:59:25Yes, she told mother about him.
00:59:27And remember, she gave up living in a palace, a fortune, to marry you.
00:59:32What's 50,000 gulden by comparison?
00:59:34What sacrifice would you have made for her?
00:59:37And what about Lily?
00:59:39Everybody knows about Lily, including Yeti.
00:59:43Well, how do you think that makes her appear, you?
00:59:49Now you've lost her.
00:59:52She's left you.
00:59:55You're a blind, stubborn, opinionated jackass.
00:59:58And it's time someone knocked some sense into you.
01:00:00And that someone's me!
01:00:03And you might just make it to the station in time.
01:00:08Well, I guess I had it coming.
01:00:11But it was a bit sassy of a younger brother.
01:00:18I'd like a ticket on the first train to leave, please.
01:00:20Where to?
01:00:22Wherever it's going.
01:00:32To the station, quick.
01:00:36Drive like it's a chariot at the forum, and there's five gulden in it for you.
01:00:41Five gulden?
01:00:41Yes, go!
01:00:52Hey, look out!
01:00:58Faster!
01:00:59Faster!
01:01:08Look out!
01:01:12Faster!
01:01:13facultir!
01:01:16Fast!
01:01:18Fast!
01:01:19Fast!
01:01:20Hostile!
01:01:20Fast!
01:01:22Fast!
01:01:28Fast!
01:01:32Fast!
01:01:34Past!
01:01:34Fast!
01:01:36Fast!
01:01:37Fast!
01:01:42Hey!
01:02:32Can you forgive me?
01:02:35My brother called me stubborn, obstinate, a jackass, a fool.
01:02:41Oh, whatever you'd like to add to that, I deserve.
01:02:48Don't leave me.
01:02:51I love you.
01:03:15One hundred added maestri.
01:03:19One thousand musicians.
01:03:22Twenty thousand voices and one hundred thousand people.
01:03:29Oh!
01:03:36Oh!
01:03:39Oh!
01:03:41Oh!
01:03:41Oh!
01:03:43Oh!
01:03:44Oh!
01:03:53Oh!
