What shall I do

Let's

see I'm 41

I wonder how Michelangelo was doing when he was 41.

I wonder.

I don't know about Michelangelo, but I'm doing fine.

Can't turn him out fast enough.

Successful.

Famous.

Totally at loose ends.

My heart's not in it.

I wonder why.

It's my hands that shape the clay.

But my heart's just not.

in it.

You okay?

Well, I'm glad we talked it out.

Yeah. It's a relief for you.

Paul?

I'll phone you.

Well, do you want me to phone you?

If you want.

Anyway, I'll see you when I bring the statues.

You're still my favorite partner.

Yes, I know.

Business before pleasure.

Paul?

Hey, Paul, look there.

Hey, come on. Let's get something to drink.

See those girls over there?

They're in my dance school.

You know something, Costa?

I think I'll come and see you dance today.

One, two, three,

four. One, two, three, four.

One, two, three, four.

One, two, three, four. One, two, three, four.

Two, three, four.

One, two, three, four.

One, two, three.

3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.

1, 2, 3, 4. The other side.

Yeah.

Hello. Paul.

What?

Sarah.

That explains it.

Explains what?

Isn't she your daughter?

Mm -hmm. She looks exactly like you when you were her age.

Sarah, I don't believe this. I mean, for a minute, I felt like I was 20 years

old again.

Oh, you can't go back again, Paul Thomas.

You only get one chance in a million.

Anyhow, let me introduce you to my daughter.

She's already heard a lot about you.

Come on, Laura, I'd like you to meet Mr. Paul Weiler.

I have a feeling I've come through. Deep inside me where I hide me there's a

longing I can never let you know.

I'm in love with you. Do you not know it at all?

I'm in love with you, but you don't love me at all

I'm in love with you, but you don't love me at

all I'm in love with you, but you don't love

me at all

I'm in love with you, but you don't love me at all.

I'm in love with you but you don't know it at all

The little girl's becoming a very beautiful woman.

Maybe, but will you still tuck me in?

You are crazy.

I know.

Is it fun being a woman?

Give me a kiss.

Mother? Yeah?

Oh, Laura, get me my drink.

Did you have a nice time with Mr. Weiler?

Oh, yeah. We talked and talked and talked.

You know how it is when you haven't seen someone for years.

What is he like?

Always a nice man and a famous artist.

Was he glad to see you?

Oh, sure.

After all, we're old friends.

Mother? Yes?

If I ask you a question, will you give me an honest answer?

Oh, I don't know. That depends.

I'm serious.

Will you tell me the truth?

What's on your mind?

Was he ever your lover?

Laura!

I'm old enough to know.

All right, Laura. It's time for bed. Come on.

Oh, Laura.

Paul asked to do a statue of you. Would you like that?

A statue?

Of me?

Yes. And he needs photographs of you, and I told him, assuming you don't mind,

that I would take them.

Don't sculptors usually... Mother?

Yeah. Mother, I wouldn't mind posing for him. Oh, well, Paul told me he prefers

photos.

It's more convenient for him.

Mother, I love you.

I love you too.

Sleep tight.

Good night.

Laura?

I'm ready.

How was I?

Wonderful.

Beautiful.

When she got into it, she really loved it.

You were quite taken with her, aren't you?

Well, it's only natural. I was quite taken with you when you were her age.

And now?

Love your photos, love your daughter. When do I see her?

I've already answered that.

Come with her.

Oh, Paul, Laura's embarrassed us at this, but you have those photographs of

You have no idea what a terrible time I had convincing her to do them.

I thought you said she loved it.

I said, why don't you get into the spirit of it?

Here's enough weed, Jennifer, for a lifetime.

Hello.

Need a hand?

No.

I have to leave now.

Wait a minute. Let me try and convince you. Stay for lunch.

I'm sorry, but I... Sarah?

I'll try.

I wish I was years younger.

What would you do then?

I'm not sure.

Cut. Leave those pictures alone.

I'm sorry.

When's she coming?

She's not coming.

How are you going to work, then?

One, two, three, four. One, two, three,

four.

10, 12, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. Good. Now 10. The GTM group.

10, 10, 10, 10.

Hold it round.

1,

2,

3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,

8.

Two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight,

nine. Thank you for today.

Come with me to my office. Come along.

Who is he, Laura?

What do you mean, ma 'am?

The boy you're in love with.

But he's not a boy at all, madame.

Not a boy.

Are you going to pose for him naked?

Will your mother let you do it?

Go on, Laura.

Tell her.

Mother gave him photos of me to work from.

Photos? That's silly. Paul Thomas Waller always works with live models. It's

just so in the book.

Makes sense.

A sculptor has to see to really see.

All the statues are in the van. It's time to go.

All right, I'll be right away.

Hey, what's that?

What? That.

The weed killer. I'll take it out.

You driving?

No, go ahead.

Easy does it.

Let's put it over there.

Yes, that's right. The opening's tomorrow at five.

Come with me. I'm very glad you can come. Goodbye.

How about this one? Hang it there.

Give me a hand. Somebody.

Hello, Paul.

Hello. I was waiting for you yesterday.

Yeah, well, I started on a new statue. I couldn't just leave it.

Who is it?

She's a fascinating filly, but she won't pose.

Paul, stay tonight.

No, no, no. I want to get back to work.

All right. I understand.

I'm glad you're working again.

Oh, um... If you could, I'd like you to send another invitation.

To Mr. and Mrs. Moore and Laura Moore.

Okay.

Mr. and Mrs. and Laura Moore.

Please, Costa.

Stay or go? Would you make up your mind?

I thought you said you liked people around when you were. You don't even

model.

Listen, Costa.

I think I won't be needing you anymore today.

Go now.

Why, sure.

Well, I'll water the garden, then I'll go.

I'll get it.

What are you reading?

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Where did you get that book on Paul?

I bought it in town.

Hello?

May I see it?

Mother? Mm -hmm?

You see, the girls are saying... What are they saying?

They're saying that Paul only works with live models.

And that's what it says in the book, too.

It says... I don't care what the book says.

Yes, Mother.

Neither child nor woman, untouched, virginal. The excitement of capturing

moment of innocent perfection.

Oh, my Sarah.

Of course I love you, but I can only be true to my work, not to any woman.

I'm fervently, adamantly faithful to my vision of beauty.

Yet every statue I'll ever make will have a touch of Sarah in it.

You are the first, the original molding.

You're my one in a million chance.

Sarah? Sarah.

Hello, dear.

Everything all right?

Of course.

But what about you? Was your trip a success? Yes. And how's my little girl?

Ask her.

It feels like I've been gone for ages. You're never home. I won't be married

anymore. I miss you a lot, you know. And Dora misses you, too.

Just getting more beautiful every day.

Why, even Paul Wiley noticed that.

As a matter of fact, he wants to make a statue of her. He said she looks just

like I did.

Oh, Mother, don't.

You've seen Paul again?

Here we go again. Bow tie and all.

Everybody who's anybody will be there, unfortunately.

Laura will be there.

Where are you going?

Oh, first we're going to play a load of Pat and Jan Vincent, and then we're

going to Paul's Bernadette.

Oh.

Did I forget to tell you?

Goodbye, Laura.

Goodbye.

Has Mr.

Wyler said anything to you about my statue?

I'll ask you when I see him. I can't wait to see it. Neither can I. We have

go now, dear.

Will you say hello to him for me?

Of course.

Mother, you shouldn't have done that.

Paul had invited me too.

He wants to see me.

There's nobody.

Nobody to speak with.

Nobody to listen to explain.

Oh, Mother, don't you see? It's my turn now.

The girls keep talking about love, but what do they know?

Do they dream my dreams?

Feel like I do?

Paul, if only I could see you, be near you.

I just know you'd understand it all.

You'd know.

Then you would smile and kiss me gently.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Listen, Cole.

I know it's about the right moment to talk about it.

There's something I'd like to make clear.

Super. Turn out, my darlings.

Hello, Sarah.

Hello, Paul.

This is my husband, Richard.

How do you do? I've heard so much about you. I'm very glad to meet you.

Merci.

I thought... Didn't Laura come with you?

Strange, but she didn't want to.

Oh, that's too bad.

Very handsome tonight, Paul Thomas.

What shall I do?

Work with you now or wait till we get to the party, huh? Why not, Paul?

What are you doing?

i'm bringing the candles thanks a lot now get out of here i hope you have a

lovely time

Oh, it's all been my fault.

Impossessive and jealous.

I'm even jealous of your statues.

I love you.

I've decided to leave.

I'll miss you, you know.

Thank you.

Sarah, don't touch that, please. You know how fast clay dries.

I'm sorry, Paul.

I keep forgetting.

Is it beautiful?

Well, it's not finished yet.

Well... I'm going to talk to you.

Sit down.

Wow, yeah Do

you like women or do you prefer your statue?

Because if you want

Sarah, Sarah.

Remember me? It's me, Paul.

You'll be all right.

I still love you. I

love you, too.

Oh, you don't love me. You love my daughter.

I do love you.

Paul, please leave her alone.

And the others?

There will be other men, you know.

Will you kill them all?

Will you?

Now, don't try to change the subject.

We were talking about you. No, Richard.

No, no, no. We were talking about Sarah.

Your wife loves you.

Are you totally blind? Don't you see what she needs?

What she really wants from you is a bit of tenderness.

Your presence.

You're the one forcing her to look for love elsewhere.

What's wrong?

Richard, the statue!

The statue!

Ugh.

Weed killer can cause unpredictably serious damage Well

Well, it depends I'm afraid right now I must make a reserved prognosis

Wait here.

Come. Let's go on the tent.

What's the matter?

Come, sit down right here.

What is it now? I... It's painful.

There? It's killing me.

It's terrible.

Oh, well.

It's really bad.

Only one solution.

See to it that you always keep your foot straight.

Soak it half an hour in piping hot water, a big handful of Epsom salt.

And you massage very gently, understand?

Half an hour.

Right. You'll come to your class tomorrow.

Uh -huh.

Goodbye. Goodbye.

I'll be back.

No, Pastor.

Neither you nor anybody. I want to be alone.

I need no help, and I want no pity.

Just alone.

Leave me now, and don't come back.

Shall I do?

He's gone home.

Paul and Sarah are okay, but Paul and Laura, no.

Boarding school's the best solution.

When Laura's gone, what's going to happen to us?

Nothing. We'll go on.

Laura will make new friends at her boarding school.

She won't be lonesome.

And me?

They can't send me away just like that.

Get rid of me. I'm not a baby anymore. Even Mother said so.

I love him. That almost makes me a woman.

You can't send a woman off to boarding school.

I must see him.

Tell him that... Tell him everything.

Mother, would you do my packing for me?

Sure, but why?

I want to go and say goodbye.

To the dance teacher?

Yes, the dance teacher.

Say goodbye to your father first. He's leaving.

Yes. You shouldn't have come.

It's me.

Not yet.

It's really me.

Not yet.

Laura, you shouldn't have come. You should go now.

I have to talk to you.

Let's go for a walk.

See, you can finish the statue.

How?

I'll show you.

It's finished.

Let's go home
