Can you turn around, Miss Poole?

Kate.

I think your father I should do it.

Don't let it touch the ground.

I want to kill him.

If only I could put hands on...

...I think I would kill him.

Five hundred and forty dollars and...

Kate, don't you think that's weird?

No, I don't think so.

In fifteen years he wrote to Jessica exactly three times.

When was your birthday, He remembered it twice.

We don't even hear talk about him at Christmas.

Why would you let your daughter's wedding interrupt your happy nomadic life?

The fabulous Poogo Poole?

The international playboy?

Athlete, traveler, scoundrel.

I wonder where it is?

Choose an airport, anywhere on the planet.

That's where you'll find it.

Thank you so much.

You wait.

Very sorry. It is that someone arrived

Toy.

I call you for him champagne for the wedding.

Oh, the champagne for the wedding.

No, Mr. Russell, I'm sorry...

...but the samples you have sent will not work.

No, they're not really drinkable.

I suggest you send a Don Perignon '49 or '52.

Is it expensive?

Well, to baptize a ship, perhaps...

...but not for my daughter's wedding.

That's how it is.

Hey?

How many bottles?

Is that a great reception, Toy?

Yes, they invited about 400.

I want 15 boxes.

Fifteen boxes???

I won't be able to find fifteen boxes...

Oh, you are the young lady's father.

You are the same father.

'I am' the same father.

He's been gone too long.

Yes, a long time.

I haven't seen her since...

...since then.

-Okay, let's go upstairs now. -Very good.

Is she beautiful, Toy?

Is she so pretty now as it was before?

Yes very beautiful.

It's not the time to be mysterious, Toy.

She is smart, charming, and happy?

Is it the most beautiful thing you've ever seen?

Yes, very beautiful.

Very grown.

I don't think I'm going to recognize it now.

I think I will.

What worries me is if she will recognize me.

Does she remember me?

Is this your room, Toy?

Of the young lady? Yes sir.

All good?

Very good, Toy.

She remembers me.

I want a room with a view, Toy.

I want to look at the bay.

Only room at the front of the house.

Street view.

I don't want to see any streets.

But he is a guest.

But the rooms on this side They have views of the bay, right?

Yes. This is the master's room,

the lady's room,

employer's office,

but there is no guest room.

Oh!

Oh, so this is the boss's office?

But that 'space for you'.

No, Toy. I think this 'fourth for me'.

No, sir 'You guest'.

You can be inscrutable, Toy, but it shouldn't be impossible.

Move me here.

But 'the boss doesn't like it'.

He doesn't sleep here, does he?

Only when the great Miss orders it.

Perfectly.

It will bring you back the old times.

Let me help you...

Leave my coat here. I don't have it with me.

They still have packages in the car. I'm going to look for them.

Put it there, Toy.

Oh, Toy.

Don't tell them I'm here. I want to tell them myself.

No, sir, I'm not going to say. 'Secreto'.

That's right. 'Secreto'.

Jessica, why don't you? check the gifts

and you put them in the wedding book?

Yes, mother.

What is this?

Open it and find out.

Toy would never forgive me if I I open something first.

Where is my book?

I left it right here on the desk.

He must be in the billiard room, with the gifts.

Here is the coat.

I help you.

You can stack them.

For the cocktail shaker collection.

With this one there are 11.

Jim.

Maybe if you sent another telegram...

I'm sorry, honey.

But there is nowhere else to look.

Go put away your cocktail shakers.

Alright.

But I don't know why your friends They think I'm an alcoholic.

Poor thing.

Don't you think he at least Could I have sent a gift?

Hello?

One moment.

Mr. Russeau, of the wine store

Yes, Mr. Russeau?

Do you need to place an order from New York?

That?

Fifteen...

Fifteen boxes of...

Fifteen boxes of what??

Did you order 15 boxes of champagne at $150 each?

No!

Yeah! Cancel the order!

Fifteen cases of champagne, $150...

-Dad! -Hi darling.

How glad I am to see you!

Oh! The hermit of Monterrey.

Hello, Jim.

Welcome to our city.

We didn't expect it before of the weekend.

A handful of fog, landed on my shoulder

and I had a sudden impulse for my meats.

Where is my granddaughter?

Jessica! Come here.

Where are your suitcases, dad?

I left them at the club.

I thought you were going to stay with us this time.

No.

I really like you, but the conversations in the club

They have more variety.

Mother.

There is a big lamp silver but I...

Oh, grandpa.

Hello, Cricket.

He finally came out of hiding.

Excellent!

Only one thing could bring me here.

Are you happy?

I'm happier now.

I missed you.

You almost never show up.

And you never visit me.

They ask for you in Punta Lobos.

The waves crash against the rocks with a rage.

And the seagulls fly in circles complaining because you're far away.

And my cypress?

Is my lonely cypress still grow patiently?

Patiently and murmuring.

I told him you were getting married.

And now the sound is different when the wind blows through it.

Oh, grandpa.

You serve the drinks here, isn't it?

You beat me on that one.

I was digging this one up. ancestral bourbon.

Thanks, Jim.

You will stay for dinner, will you do it dad?

I will stay.

It'll just be Jim and me.

The young people will have fun on the peninsula.

Jess, how about we open this?

It is the most interesting format. that has come so far.

Okay, open it.

I just need to find out how to open it.

Oh, grandpa.

Jim gave me a mink coat like farewell gift

Don't say! will kill everyone of envy in Paris.

But we won't go to Paris honeymoon

No? Why not?

Roger received an invitation to a large livestock auction in Hawaii.

And there is a prize bull that he you intend to buy,

so he decided to kill two birds with one stone.

Pretty handy, huh?

Couldn't you buy a bull in Paris?

Very good, here you go.

-Oops! -Oh, extraordinary!

It's not from anyone I know.

Please, what to give? to a girlfriend

It's a very expensive joke.

This thing is an item collection.

It didn't come with a card.

I'm not surprised.

It has a certain beauty, doesn't it?

Yes, it does.

Katherine, do you remember your Aunt Edith?

Wait till Roger sees this.

Tell him it's an ashtray.

Who sent it?

Whose will it be?

Have your pennies ready, Jim.

Hello, Katherine.

Didn't you expect me?

No...

...I mean! Yes.

Where do you come from?

Kenya.

It's in Africa.

I know where Kenya is.

Most people don't know it.

Won't you invite me down?

Well...

Whoa, Pogo!

-How are you Kate? -How are you?

I'm sorry, I didn't tell you I was coming...

...but I was moving so fast.

And I didn't know your address either.

I only met her at the airport when I arrived.

Everything's fine. Furthermore, we have been waiting for you

I received the telegram the day before yesterday, so...

I sent a letter months ago.

I didn't receive it.

Didn't you bring your wife? I mentioned it in the letter. But I didn't even receive it...

I don't have a wife.

Again?

I can't keep them, can I?

How unexpected. In total they go...

Only three...

...telling you.

That is, if you tell me.

I insist on telling you.

Oh... yeah, well. There that...

How was the trip?

Fast.

You haven't changed Kate

Of course I changed, after everything has been 15 years.

But would you like to look at my teeth?

-Very good. -Thank you.

You are one of the lucky ones who They improve with age. You...

...you have matured.

I think I'm going to start one morning diet

Well, where are you staying? If we had known you would come...

-I'm going to stay here. -Here?

Your employee was nice to me by allowing me to enter.

I know you wouldn't want me to stay somewhere else. The bride's father and...

So Toy set you up?

Very well installed. Wonderful room.

The one that faces the street? I'm surprised that You wouldn't want one with a view of the bay.

Now, uh... tell me something.

Tell me about our daughter.

What is she like?

It's not very easy to know through letters.

she looks like you in many aspects.

She has all your charm, and...

...your gift for music.

-Does she play well? -Uhuh.

Good.

But she looks like you.

No, she's... more like your mother.

Doesn't she have anything from you?

Well... He trips over furniture.

She looks like the Kate I knew.

Oh, Jim, this is my husband!

Oops!

Nice to meet you, Mr. Dougherty...

Kate told me all about you.

But she didn't tell him that we were married.

Oh Jim...

It's okay Kate. I can give proof that I am your husband.

And I can prove that I am not.

I think we should congratulate each other, otherwise it would look rude...

I'm glad you came. We were almost giving up on you.

And Jessica would be disappointed.

I would be terribly disappointed. I must thank you for inviting me...

Of course we would.

No no. Many people in his position would not invite.

-Nonsense, you are the father... -I mean, how moved I was.

upon receipt of the signed telegram for you.

Purely incidental. Kate asked me to send it.

No no. It was something extra special, watching his name there...

Can you stop that the camaraderie?

Good. Kate, your father wants the morning newspapers.

He was admiring his house.

Yes, it's great. My grandfather built it.

You can see it in this picture along with Leland Stanford.

It is the placement of the Golden Nail,

who completed the first route of the transcontinental railroad.

Charming.

By the way, if you look to the left...

-Where's the newspaper, Jim? -Here is your newspaper.

And here's the bourbon. Do you want another drink?

Oh yes.

Hello, Mr. Savage. Do you remember me?

Of course. How are you, Biddeford?

It couldn't be better. It's very good to see you, sir.

-I imagine you came to deliver the bride. -That's right.

Good. It will make Jessica happy.

Where do you come from?

Kenya.

That's too far away.

It was on the border of Tanganyika when the telegram arrived.

Hey, look at me!

Grandfather. This is the coat that I told you about.

Oh, it's wonderful.

Isn't it adorable?

Wait until you see my dress.

Do you like it?

Oh mother, do you like the neck open or do you prefer it closed...

You are here.

Yes.

I wasn't sure you'd come.

You could be sure.

Oh, I'm so happy.

Hello, father.

Hello, daughter.

Have you come from ends of the Earth?

Where from?

From the green hills of Africa.

Oh. then it was you Who brought me that?

Oh yes, I brought it but not for you. I brought it to your mother.

For me?

Yes. I found it in Tanga.

As soon as I laid eyes on him, I remembered...

...well, it can be misunderstood.

But I remember how you were in love with him

primitive art in our first year in Paris.

And I thought you would like it.

Do you like it?

Yes I like it. Thanks, Pogo.

It made a great impression and Quite a bit, Biddeford.

But I also have something for you.

Can I give it to you now?

Oh yes. Please.

It was my grandmother's.

He left it to me with a simple instruction.

That I should keep it and give it to him to someone I would have loved.

I saved it for you.

Oh!

Oh, it's beautiful!

Perfectly beautiful!

Mommy! Look at it! I'm speechless!

Me too.

Oh! I need to see it. With permission.

It's really beautiful.

It is an old Italian piece.

Seven emeralds and no one remember how many pearls.

Seventy-six.

Hmm?

I said: seventy-six.

I think your grandmother would be Very moved, Biddeford,

knowing that you you saved it for your daughter.

Thank you, sir. I think so too.

What a day. What a day.

It must be the most beautiful that I have seen in my life.

And it is the most beautiful that I have seen.

I'm so glad you're here. Not only for this.

Do you mean you will accept me even without the jewelry?

I have nothing more to offer. Besides my love.

I'm happy with that.

I think I'll go up.

I feel a little dirty from the office.

I like him.

Excellent.

I'll buy you a drink. I'll be back.

Alright.

Toy, hand me my briefcase. I want to put it on my desk.

Let's go for a walk, daughter?

Toy!

Toy!

Toy!

Toy!!

Toy!

Hey!!

Toy!

Toy!

Are you down there?

Toy!

What happened, Jim?

Did you invite that husband of yours stay with us?

Ex husband. And no, I don't know anything, he just arrived.

And he was excluding us.

Those are my robes, my T-shirts, my shoes.

Does he have this habit of moving to other people's house without asking permission?

Yes, he does it all the time. He always does it.

And you still defend him!

I'm no longer married to him.

If that was too much, wait until you see here.

This is really too much.

He moved the desk!

Oh, he always liked them the desks against the wall.

But it turns out that this is my desk.

And look there!

No. No, I don't want to.

Look at this.

He even deconfigured my exercise bike.

-Get him out of here! -Can't.

Toy!

Toy!

Jim, they will listen to you. They are in the garden.

My studio is my studio...

I hope nothing bad happens.

No, I don't think so. We tend to yell a lot in this house.

So.

Tell me about your boyfriend. I didn't receive your mother's letter.

His name is Roger Henderson.

And it's divine!

Well, I think that sums it up.

We met at university. He was two years ahead of me.

It was one of those romances intense college students.

He was an athlete on the football team. Very popular on campus.

The girls surrounded him.

But I only had eyes for you.

He's also smart.

Sweet, kind, tender.

What does it do?

He is a rancher.

The family owns a large ranch in Sonoma, in the Valley of the Moon.

Black Angus are bred.

His parents retired, they moved away to Santa Barbara...

...and Roger takes care of everything himself now.

Dad, he's great at this.

They say the way it comes running the business,

will probably have the best Angus herd in the country in 10 years.

Really?

It is very progressive.

He has many ideas about artificial insemination and all that.

He inseminates throughout the world.

You must be very proud of that.

Dad, you're going to like it.

I'm sure so.

It has no defects. Actually.

And the ranch is beautiful.

Soft green hills...

Hello!

Isn't it a beautiful and radiant day?

Was it fun growing up here?

Especially this.

When I was little, my size was barely It allowed me to get up to here on the wall.

Mom said you were in Europe.

I didn't know where I was. But I knew it was too far away.

And, for me, beyond the bridge It was the furthest thing that existed.

So I used to come here,

I stood on tiptoe and looked for you.

Then one day mom showed me a photo of you in a magazine.

You were hunting in the jungle.

Come here, I want to show you something.

I used to play here alone.

For hours and hours.

This garden was the jungle.

There was a big tree fake rubber over there,

and I walked from one side to the other,

waiting for dad to come from behind of him wearing a safari helmet.

I don't have a safari helmet and I'm a little late.

But here I am.

It's very good.

So you followed me around everyone.

-I don't... -I saw your scrapbook.

It was funny.

It made me feel like I...

...had you.

And the only way you could.

You will know that...

...I'm not good with cards.

It doesn't matter.

There are things that I don't know they can lose.

I have so many things the ones to regret.

No, you don't have.

Now I grant something again that I never had.

It's not true.

When I was 13 years old, the teacher of English he asked us to speak...

...of something or someone to whom We will love a lot.

I still remember what I presented.

"My father. My father was a great hero in the war.

"He was one of the first Americans in joining the RAF.

"He shot down many enemy planes and received many medals.

"He was also a great athlete at the university.

"He plays the piano wonderfully.

"He travels a lot around the world. And I love him...

"...too much."

I made a drawing of you to accompany it.

But you looked like a...

...a Doberman Pinscher.

That thin, hungry look.

You could be a great pianist if you worked at it.

Who told you that?

My mother.

But it's not true.

It wasn't because I didn't try. It just wasn't very good.

Once I decided that it would be the best pianist of the world.

Then I discovered that I wasn't good at it, so I threw it all away

and I dedicated myself to my business.

Business?

The pleasure.

Oh I can't believe that it was so simple.

No, it wasn't easy.

A life of pleasure requires concentration and discipline...

...far beyond the capabilities of the majority.

Never try it. It's terribly exhausting.

There is so much to see and so much to do. But so little time.

So little time.

I know.

You?

I am distressed by the idea that people die without having the opportunity

to do the things that would like to do.

Sometimes when I'm playing Mozart,

I find myself crying because He died so young.

Or when I'm reading Shelley, or Keats, I...

You know... I'm a huge crybaby.

"Cry for the hasty, not for the dead.

"Those who need it "They keep running."

Like you?

Like me.

Hello.

Good.

Have they already been discovered?

Of course!

I like this one!

Oh, it's just an old rag.

You were very modest, Kate.

She does have something about you.

Some small gestures.

The way you look at me, for example,

I remember that look.

I think about it.

Uh, don't you better save the necklace, dear?

Oh yes, I think so.

I don't even feel like it to take it off.

Our daughter is a lovely girl.

But so innocent.

You kept her locked up, Kate.

I don't think like that.

She doesn't know anything about the world.

I don't think it was more happy if it did.

Do you think she's ready to get married?

Yes.

-And are you happy with that? -Quite.

Don't you think Jessica is a little young and inexperienced?

A little younger than me when I get married

Look how it ended. we don't want This happens again, right?

I'm sorry. Let's go change the subject.

Uh, she was very happy with the necklace, don't you think?

It should, right?

I was too.

What do you mean?

When you gave it to me.

I never gave it to you.

You gave it to me the night before to our wedding.

So you took it when you left

That's a robbery!

Foolishness! How was I going to give it to you if Did I always save it for my daughter?

You're confusing yourself with Mona.

Who?

-The second Mrs. Poole. -I have never had the pleasure of knowing

to the second Mrs. Poole.

The pleasure is imperceptible.

So it must have been Natalie next.

Yes, you are getting confused between the two.

I'm not confused with anyone.

you put it around my neck in the same way.

You used exactly the same words.

Do you think a woman forgets such thing?

Your grandmother's simple instructions.

"I must save it and give it to someone to whom she would have loved and kept for you."

Your grandmother must be rolling in his grave.

My grandmother was a lady calm and sedentary.

And it still is, I hope.

And one more thing.

Since you have taken out the unpleasant topic of "theft".

What's up with these paintings?

That's mine.

And that one.

And that and that.

You can stay with the Golden Nail.

And that's mine.

And Paul Clemens' portrait of Jessica...

If you put a finger in that portrait...

Where is it?

I took him to my room.

Bring it back.

I won't do it.

Well, just like old times.

You will leave immediately James's office.

It seems extremely petty to me.

How many for dinner?

-Will you stay for dinner? -Yeah!

Four!

Oh, there you are, Toy.

It seems that you and I have some little things to talk about.

Oh, look at that, man.

I hope it's not too much inconvenient...

I had to force Toy to settle in your office.

I know you wouldn't make me come to San Francisco and being private

of that magnificent view.

No no. Of course not.

Very kind of you.

Don't you mind if I come from time to time? from time to time for something?

Oh, no, no. Feel completely free.

Katherine, I changed my mind.

I think I'll stay here.

Jessica?

Permission.

I'd be surprised if it started to call him Pogo.

Everyone calls him Pogo.

I don't. I call it Biddeford.

You are good.

You are good.

We are both good...

...together

It hasn't arrived yet. But we hope at any time.

Yes. I'll give you the message.

No no. I won't forget it.

Bye bye. Thank you.

What are we going to do tonight

while the young people go out go dancing?

We'll go to bed.

Is it the best you have to offer?

It wasn't an offer.

Careful. Very hot.

-Careful. Very hot. -Thank you.

Careful. Very hot.

Toy, you don't have to keep saying, "Careful, very hot."

We've all heard it the first time.

Yes sir.

I always listened that San Francisco was

the happiest city and exciting western.

It is.

-And then? -We are just old people.

Oh, oh!

"Careful. Very hot."

Hello, Toy.

Hey, look at my girl!

It's here! My father is here.

-And look what he brought me. -It's very pretty.

Dad. This is Roger.

Hello, Mr. Poole. Pleased to meet you.

So you are the young man who Do you want to take my daughter away from me?

Uh, I hope you don't bother too much.

Hello, madam. Gougherty. Jim...

Oh, Roger, the ranch called a few minutes ago.

They said it was important.

-Thank you. -What are you going to drink, Roger?

I don't want anything, thank you.

I think you know how much it means for Jessica to be here, sir.

It is a great piece that you have given him.

It had always been kept for her. A sacred trust.

I can't wait to Let's get to the party.

Tomorrow, the whole city will find out.

I... I think this is the best time to say that...

...well, to say how wonderful which is his daughter.

I know I must be the nicest guy lucky in the world.

-Well, I hope you're happy with... -Roger.

Roger, why don't you save your Usher dinner speech?

Come on, I want to show you what your aunt Sara sent.

Permission.

I don't know what it is. You will have to...

Good boy.

I like it.

I like it!

You're not the airhead type, are you?

Loyal, trustworthy, hardworking, with your feet on the ground.

Are you having fun, Pogo?

But don't underestimate it.

Roger is a stubborn young man who He knows where he wants to go.

And he knows what he wants.

And he got it. It's that simple.

It's never that simple.

What do you mean?

Wait, Pogo Poole.

I don't know what you have in mind, but I'll find out.

If you do something that disturbs this marriage...

...I will cut your throat from ear to ear in a public square.

Phone.

Hello!

Roger!

Roger, phone.

I'm coming!

Oh, Roger, lipstick.

-You can take it on the desktop. -Thank you.

-Is it from the ranch? -Yeah.

Hello?

What's up, Jack?

What do you mean?

When was that?

Well there was nothing wrong with him in the morning,

I saw him before leaving.

What happens?

The Governor has pneumonia.

His father?

His prize bull.

Jack, are you sick?

Who can calm your breathing?

Isn't Dr. Sanford there?

Yes, let it start immediately.

See you later.

Roger, I'm sorry.

-Do you need to go there? -Yes, I think so.

But what about the party?

I'm sorry, darling, but I need to go there.

Yes, yes... I think that you should

I'll call and say I can come tomorrow morning.

No, you can't!

Jess, the doctor is there.

But the Governor is worth 15 thousand dollars, It is Roger's most prized possession.

Isn't it you?

No, I'll accompany you to the ranch.

Don't be stupid. The party is for you. You have to show up.

Yes, dear. You need to be.

But Roger must go to the ranch, I know.

It may not be the ideal solution, but...

...could a decrepit old man offer yourself as a substitute?

Hey, Jess. It's a good idea.

Doesn't it bother you?

Annoy me? Oh, dad! Would you do that?

Uh, sounds like the ideal solution, Right Katherine?

Oh no, Jessica. Your father has had a long plane trip.

He must be very tired.

Oh I'm not tired at all.

Would Toy be able to iron me the jacket?

Isn't it a shame that we don't have time?

Today is a day to clean the cutlery, and he has cars to wash...

...and cook dinner and...

Oh...

Toy?

Whose jacket is that?

Husband number one.

Toy!

He was my 'first' husband, no the 'number one' husband.

Very good.

Beautiful distinction.

Hey, Toy.

-Hello, Jess. -Hello, Marge. This is my father.

How are you?

Wow, he doesn't really dance like a father

Oh, it's a beautiful party, Mrs. Thompson.

Thank you, we are delighted for having you here, Mr. Poole.

Thank you so much.

Trust me, Fred. a branch in this area it will be worth millions.

George, I would love to dance.

Of course, dear. Forward.

It's a great opportunity, Fred. Believe me.

-Hello, Gay. -Jessica! Hello!

Hey. could you leave to take me?

I'm embarrassed, Howard. You haven't danced with Jessica yet.

After all, she is the guest of honor and I am organizing the party.

Very good...

Can I?

Oh yes, of course.

Hello.

Can?

Gay, your father is looking for you.

-But mom... -I think it's important, honey.

The last time I saw him, he was in the reading room.

♪ Walking.... ♪

-Goodbye. -Bye bye.

-Can I have the dance? -Well, thank you.

Ten.

Fifteen.

Two.

Why are you so restless?

I should be there caring to my daughter

Because? She is with her father.

Exactly why.

He has an amazing talent to make people

feels dissatisfied with what he has.

Imagine if it discouraged her from getting married.

Come on, Kate.

No man would do something like that against his own daughter.

I would do something like that with his own mother.

It would take a little work.

Twenty-four. Two.

Come on.

Let's go up and change. Let's go to the dance.

Kate. Because?

Because suddenly I felt like it to dance Come on, come on.

Do you want to dance?

Do I want a drink?

Do you mind if I go get one?

Well you know where find me

Look! It's mom.

I assumed he would come.

Mommy!

What are you doing here?

Well... Jim got worried.

So we decided to see what was happening.

-Is the party good? -Wonderful!

-You look beautiful, Katherine. -Thank you.

Mommy. Come on, dance with him.

-Oh, I don't feel like it. -Please.

I promise not to step on your toes of the feet.

-Thank you, but I... -Mom, do it for me.

I want to see you both dancing together

Well I don't think it's any show.

Have fun.

You are especially beautiful in that dress, Kate.

Thank you.

Beautiful like the last one once I saw you.

Do you remember the last time What do we dance?

No.

I do.

Capd'Antibes. Rock of Eden.

We just got back from that little remote island in the Aegean Sea,

where Rupert Brooke is buried.

We fill ourselves with light and romantic atmosphere.

And the mimosas in bloom.

I'm glad you have Come, Kate.

It's good to have you in my arms again.

We're just dancing.

Do you remember this song, Kate?

No.

It was our song.

The spring we spent in Positano.

And the mimosas in bloom

on hot nights In the light of the moon, we climb...

...to the hotel terrace Amalfi to dance.

and the little orchestra Italian played this song

repeatedly. Just for us.

Because they knew that We were in love.

The American song for two Americans so in love.

♪ Love, when we are dancing ♪

♪ uh... Keep looking... in my eyes ♪

♪ Until the music itself lovely love die ♪

♪ My whole future is in you... ♪

♪ ...fears go away ♪

♪ Love, I give myself to my heart. ♪

I don't remember her.

Don't you remember her?

That was never 'our' song.

We've never been so cheesy to have 'our music'.

Don't be so harsh.

Do you want more?

There was no orchestra in the terrace of the Amalfi Hotel.

There was an old man who played the accordion and it smelled like fish...

...and I didn't know any American melody.

Well...

It was worth a try.

Lady. Dougherty, would you grant me this dance?

I'm sorry, friend,

I promised her mother not to I would let you dance with strangers.

Is he here?

No, he went for a walk before breakfast.

-Has Roger called? -Not yet.

It is possible that the bull is using the phone.

I'm going to be a little late, honey. I'll have to spend the afternoon in court.

Hey?

Oh, Jim!

It worries me.

He's up to something, I feel it.

Kate, we've been through this before. What have you been doing now?

Last night before going to sleep...

...sent a telegram to Paris.

How do you know?

Oh! I accidentally lifted the extension.

No, I didn't hear anything because he had already dictated the telegram,

I was just asking the operator when it would arrive in Paris.

Did you 'by chance' raise the phone?

Well I have the right to lift my own phone.

If you want to make a call.

But why would you send a telegram to Paris?

Maybe he has friends there.

Oh! That must be the answer, then.

A telegram was delivered a while ago. Toy put it on the table.

That's it. I knew it.

That's it.

-Kate. Kate! -One moment.

There are ways.

Kate.

You can't do that.

Do you want to bet?

I was very good at this.

Kate.

Kate, it's against the law.

I won't let you do this, I prohibit it.

Don't be stupid.

Who do you think me taught how to do this?

Kate, no.

Stay away. I'm fighting for my daughter's happiness.

Happiness a damn. You're just curious.

You can't read his letters.

It's not a letter. It's a telegram.

Please don't read it.

What does it say?

"My ship is anchored in Monte Carlo.

"All yours for six weeks. Who...

"Who is the girl?"

Who signed it?

François.

François.

French.

Who is the girl?

Who do you think?

Oh please, Kate.

After the wedding he will return to Europe with a girl,

and borrowed the boat to go on a cruise.

What could be simpler?

You, for example. Daddy, who is the girl?

Jessica?

Do you think he invited her?

No. But it will.

Oh why didn't you get lost in Africa, or was trampled by elephants, or...

It's coming around the corner.

The glue! The glue! Dad.

In that drawer! No, in this one.

There, under your nose. Here it is.

It's practically at the door.

Good day!

Good day!

A telegram has arrived for you.

At the table.

Oh. Thank you.

Nothing dries in this climate.

Permission. I'm going to take a bath.

Oh, hello, George Parker.

-Yeah? -No, this is Roger.

Oh, it's you, Roger...

I'm sorry for not being there. How is Jess?

No, I haven't talked to her. since Monday.

What have you been doing?

Well. That's why I call you so Early, Roger.

She spends time on the street with his father since he arrived.

They were out all day yesterday and I know they plan to go out again today.

Now...

I thought that...

...it would be good if you came and you will spend the day with them.

Come on, Roger. You don't have to be like that.

Oh, was that a bull?

But now it's okay, right?

Yes, it's okay now.

I haven't slept very well for two nights.

Do you think it is important what's up, huh?

Alright.

I'll be there as soon as I can.

Bye bye.

Shorty...

Give me a dose of that. I think I'll need it.

-Here it is. -Thank you

Your city is romantically beautiful.

It's like sailing through the bay from Naples...

...in Sydney Harbor

...Rio de Janeiro, Hong Kong.

The whole world in one city.

I wonder if the residents from San Francisco appreciate it.

Of course they do.

Oh...

Popcorn, Roger?

Know? I probably saw grow these grapes.

In '55 I visited an old man friend, Baron von Kranz.

He has a small and charming castle on the Rhine

with views of all Oppenheim vineyards.

Oh!

Father, to your health.

Oh no...

What is that?

Steamed lettuce.

Lettuce?

Hot lettuce?

It's steaming, you fool.

Daddy, this dish is simply divine.

Est enchanteur merveilleux.

Where did you learn this step?

I was taught in a small nightclub in Portofino

with the Duchess of Crevecoeur.

The Duchess... Oh, a real duchess?

Yes, I pinched her to be sure.

Should I turn the disk?

Oh, I always think that the other side of a disk is

'anticlimactic'. Don't you think?

Yes, dad.

Dancing is great exercise.

Keeps everything loose.

You marry a Lovely girl, Roger.

I hope you know it.

Yes, sir, I know.

If I were your age and it wasn't his father,

we would have to fight for her, boy.

I wish I could.

Oh, what a wonderful night!

What a night absolutely perfect!

Dinner, wine, return walking in the fog...

Daddy, we shouldn't have walk in the fog.

You can catch a cold.

I never catch a cold.

Well, it's time to retire.

Roger.

Jess, I'm sorry.

But I spent two nights up with that bull.

I'm tired.

No no. I will be the first to say good night.

The time has come.

-Jessica. -Good night.

I will never forget tonight

Dinner with dad.

We had a lot of fun in these two days.

Wonderful fun!

Thanks for showing me your city

Oh, everything was new. everything seemed new through your eyes.

Thanks for showing me my city

I would like to be able show you the world.

It would be so good.

Good.

-Roger. -Good evening, sir. Thank you.

You seem a little out of sorts.

Better go rest.

Good night.

Good...!

"Good night. Good night!

"Giving birth is such a sweet sadness.

"I'll say good night until tomorrow.

"The dream lives in your eyes,

"peace...peace..."

I can't remember it.

Good night.

Oh, he's wonderful, don't you think?

He remembered that mom He likes mimosa more than anything.

I like it too.

Roger?

What is the problem?

Nothing.

There has to be something. you have not said a word all night.

I need to go to sleep, I have to drive for a while...

Hey can you stay and say what's wrong?

Well, to start,

I don't know about duchesses, my french is terrible.

-I don't quote poetry... -What do you mean?

Roger...

We were having fun.

Very good, you were having fun.

Oh?

Didn't you have fun?

Uh, I'll call you tomorrow. Good night.

Roger!

I'm not the cultured type, that's all.

So have fun up get tired with your father,

See you at church on Saturday. Good night.

Roger Henderson. Come back here right now.

I tried to stay calm.

But if you want to know which That's the problem, I'm telling you.

I spent all day listening to it talk about where you've been...

Jim.

Jim.

Jim!

-Jim! Jim! -That? That?

It's already started!

What do you mean 'show off'?

You heard me.

We didn't spend the night speaking french.

So what was that?

That's what happens when you go to a french restaurant

and the owner is French!

And when you talk to a French, you speak in French.

But not if you live in the US for 30 years old and speaks better English than me!

It seems that you are weak in all languages!

Oh my French is almost as good like yours!

"Hello, Patron! Merrveie!" "La saladê etê manhifiquê!"

It was salad!

Common salad!

This was no ordinary salad!

I had apple croissant and wild dandelion leaves!

That's what my cattle eat!

And you don't see them dancing and shouting "Hey boss! Merrveie!"

It turns out that they are both from the best wines in the world!

My ranch is in a vineyard area. I am surrounded by vineyards.

And when we want a glass of wine We drink it, we don't pray for it.

National wines. Those were imported!

What did you want me to do? Fain out?

And let me say something like cattle breeder.

It is a crime to take one beautiful prime meat

and spill that goo brown on top.

Brown viscose?

You call that sauce of the gods 'brown goo'?

Brown viscose, that's right.

And what makes you think that you father discovered

that french restaurant?

My aunt Sarah dines there twice a week.

Your Aunt Sarah makes me of nerves!

-What gets on my nerves... -Roger! Jessica!!

He sat there like an ace in a stick all day...

Calm down! Anyone who sees them You'll think they're already married!

Roger has hated it all night.

I didn't say that.

I just don't understand why they ignored me all night, that's all.

I don't understand. Didn't you and your father a pleasant evening?

Yes we had it.

But not Roger?

Certainly not!

I think I could have prevented it.

I stayed on the sidelines all night

It's not true!

Dad made a tremendous effort. He addressed Roger all the time.

He even... he even asked How was your sick bull?

He asked me in French!

Oh, Jim, it was dinner wonderful.

Dad went yesterday, 24 hours before, and He planned everything with absolute attention,

It was just perfect.

So when the meat was served,

he scraped up all the sauce.

Oh, Jess, I'm so sorry.

I didn't think you would have realized.

Oh, Jess. It doesn't matter.

And I'm sure that Your father didn't care.

To tell the truth, it requires some courage to scrape the sauce from the meat.

I wanted to do that so many times but I never had the courage.

Jim is right.

Calm down. Here you go.

The night is over. Your father went to bed.

And when they get married, you serve sauce on the side, eh?

Roger, why don't you are you going home?

We all need sleep.

After they kiss and make up things, of course.

Would you like the elderly will they retire?

Jess, I...

Well, I'm sorry.

-Could you leave? -Oh no!

No, I'm not ready for this.

Alright. Good night.

Good night.

Good evening, Mrs. Dougherty.

Good evening, Roger.

Good evening, James.

Don't worry.

-Good night, Roger. -Good night.

What's wrong with me?

Nothing serious.

And now?

I suspect you are suffering from severe

Pogo Poole attack.

It is a very common ailment among women, but it is not fatal.

You treat it like it's, uhm...

a pain in the liver.

Eat light foods, drink with moderation and take long walks.

In this matter, I am an authority.

I already had one of the more serious attacks...

...never seen.

Did you get over it?

Thank God.

Mother!

Would you rather watch me wither?

After having a attack, you become immune.

I'm glad you had it.

It's like a vaccine.

I spent my life romanticizing to my father

I... I created an image imaginary of...

happier, more charming man, most incredible in the world.

And when he came back,

I was not disappointed, nor disillusioned or disappointed.

It's not so bad, right?

No.

It's very good.

And I...

...I want you to love him.

Especially now, I think.

Why especially now?

I suspect it's in the middle of two people at this moment,

and that was always difficult for him.

He needs to have someone,

not many people, He loves an audience though.

No. Someone who loves him, May you look for joy and fun in it,

and give it substance.

It depends too much on the others, but never admits it.

time has become in the enemy.

What made you say that?

He said it. The day it arrived.

Time pursues him, but he He has to keep running.

I never thought he'd admit it.

But it's true. It's true...

And it will get worse as grow up, right?

Oh, don't start crying for his old age, not yet.

There are still some left good years.

I needed to find to someone like you.

He had someone like me.

I don't need to do it again.

That's called a "double penalty."

Furthermore,

He already found someone like me.

-Who? -You.

Oh yes. someone like me,

and someone like him.

His newly discovered daughter.

It's like I just give birth to you, already grown.

And he is amazed what it produced.

I wish I had come back five years ago.

Me too. For you two.

They could have made a little trip together.

He could have you shown the world.

But he missed the boat.

You already have someone.

You can see that, right?

Yes.

You're getting married.

Yes...

It's fun...

...I should feel a great satisfaction

because I was alone.

Let's go to sleep.

Mother...

Are you really completely cured of your case of Pogo Poole?

The doctor said I had an incredible recovery.

I thought it would be...

very strange to have it here in house with Jim.

Well, I feel a little illegal.

And when did it appear here with all these mimosas,

Like he did in the old days?

That?

Didn't you feel a... little chill?

No chills.

I just wondered if they would last until Saturday.

But I don't believe it.

That's the problem with mimosas.

They dry quickly.

I thought I was the only one with difficulty sleeping.

Is it exclusive to mothers and daughters?

Or can an elderly parent interrupt?

Oh it's just a conversation of big girls.

You know: life.

Did you come to any conclusion?

That life is sad.

Oh, it's just the fog and that whistle going "moo, moo."

Have you ever heard of rhinos in labor?

I went down for a drink before to go to bed

Marvelous. I'll prepare it for you. What do you want?

A little brandy, in a tall glass with soda No ice, please.

Sounds great. I think I'm going to drink one too.

No, I don't think I will.

It was quite a dinner.

That's what I heard.

The strong and silent groom He seemed a little dejected.

Oh, he even knows how to talk...

...if they let it.

How do you like that for soda?

It's perfect, honey. Thank you.

-Good night, daddy. -Good night.

-Good night, mom. -No, I will go with you,

If your father can turn off the lights.

I don't know how to do it.

Um... good night.

Good night darling.

It's pretty easy.

The switch is here in the hallway.

Here's one, for example.

Here's another one.

Incredible.

You're going to take it upstairs, right?

I prefer to finish it down here, if you stay

Oh I don't think I It would be good company.

I never found you boring.

That was in another country.

And mimosas aren't will they take back?

No.

♪ Love, when I'm around... ♪

Old songs too They have no effect.

You are avoiding me, Isn't that right, Kate?

I am, huh?

I didn't realize. I am organizing a wedding, you know?

I missed you, Kate, in these years.

You know you don't have to say that.

But it's true.

And you wanted me?

-Do you want me to prove it to you? -No!

It's a shame that our Marriage won't work.

Tragic!

I have finally discovered why. And you?

Yes, you were bored.

No. It's because we loved each other so much that We wanted to possess ourselves fiercely.

You could also do of that a song.

Am I wrong?

You couldn't stand to be possessed, right?

You have always wanted to own without being property.

I'm still like that.

Can I go now?

-What are you doing Kate? -When?

When you're not organizing a wedding, what does your life consist of?

I am a happy and satisfied woman.

-Are you having fun? -Yeah.

But not the fun that we had together?

No.

I found a fun of a different kind.

Enjoying a divine tranquility.

And do you like this?

'Enjoying a divine tranquility'?

Good night.

"Enjoying a divine tranquility"?

Poor Kate!

Don't give me 'poor Kate'!

Can you turn off the light?

Kate?

Do you want to leave me alone?

There was a time when you had desire to live.

-I still have them... -The things you learned from me.

And what were they? Plant bananas in Pigalle Square whistling 'Dixie'.

And in six years as a gypsy international with you,

what have I learned?

A bunch of useless languages or how to prepare a shashlik.

What else?

Everything else, poor Kate. And the mimosa brings it back, right?

You look adorable with the mimosa Deep down, Kate,

and I remember...

It's not that easy. You can't escape that.

You are still there. On that lonely little island

where Rupert Brooke is buried.

At the top of the hill! Now! With the dark sky in the background.

The wind blows strong, vibrant and youthful.

We are at the top of a hill. In San Francisco!

And one thousand eighty years later, and every day I am more amazed!

Don't try to fool me, Pogo Poole.

I am a woman who frequents a club middle-aged and I like it!

I like it! I like it!

It wasn't 'Dixie'. It was the 'Swanee River'.

And be so kind as to leave to Jessica in peace.

What do you mean by that?

There is no need to charge her with your charm

and make Roger look stupid.

I don't think I can get credit for that.

I'm sure he got there without help.

You have done nothing but alter things

since you set foot in this house.

You've bothered Jim, you've bothered Jessica, you upset Roger.

You even upset Toy!

Well, how did I alter Toy?

Wow, you walk into her kitchen ten times a day!

I'm invited by Toy!

Then stay away from my kitchen!

Oh...

Oh, sorry.

Very sorry.

You had every right to do it.

But I shouldn't have done that. Very sorry.

You did the right thing.

You provoked me so much!

I apologize.

You are right to hit me.

Would you like to hit me again?

No, thanks.

Has it hurt you?

Well, I must say... that your hand He hasn't lost his touch.

I hate doing that.

I thought it was over to do that kind of thing.

Why should you have gotten over it?

Well, I'm older now. Adult.

It's not very adult to keep the repressed things.

That was one of the things that I liked them more about you.

When you burst, you burst at once.

And then, everything is silent.

Our fights never had an ounce of resentment.

And I'm happy about that.

And there is one more thing.

I don't remember you hitting me... ... without... ...kissing me afterwards.

For old times' sake, Kate?

Phew!

Ah! Oh!

Jim?

-Ugh... -Jim!

-Aag... -What happened?

What happened? I broke every one of the fingers!

-That's what happened! -Let me see...

Don't touch me!

What the hell were you doing?

What, what was he doing?

I came down to see what you were doing!

We weren't doing anything!

It wasn't that bad!

Let me see!

Oh! You broke them all!

We were talking about the old times.

When I looked you didn't say not a word.

-Oww! -Jim!

Can I offer you a drink?

No!

I swear. It was totally innocent.

Yes of course.

Here, take some of this.

I don't want your drink!

But it's yours.

It seemed like a fight.

Oh, and it is.

How civilized. How super, super cosmopolitan.

A man throws the dogs at him to his ex-wife,

her current husband being at home, and when they discover him,

still says to him: "will you allow me to offer you a drink?"

Will you grant me the dance?

Jim, stop. Stop right now.

See you in the morning!

Oh, Jim!

-Oh! -Oh, Jim!

Again?

Oh, my other foot.

-Did you get hurt? -No!

Jessica, go back to bed.

Try to make an effort. You can walk.

How do you feel?

Oh, I'm great! Great!

Don't leave me guessing! What has happened?

Oh, I went a little overboard with your mother...

You what?

It was something cruel.

Why did you do that?

I was just trying.

How good!

Oh, that's why Jim was furious.

It was his fault.

I had nothing because get involved.

Father.

You really are immoral!

For flirting with my ex-wife?

I would hate myself if I didn't do it.

Did your mother make this cake?

No, Toy.

Toy?

Will you be interested in traveling?

With you?

No chance.

If you're going to try to steal Toy,

Mom would tear out all your hair,

and I would throw you in the middle from the street.

They shouldn't be so possessive.

-I love chocolate. -Me too!

We are equal, right?

I think so.

I am jovial, irresponsible, romantic, impractical,

and impulsive.

Enough?

Yes.

You've grown up, haven't you?

What did you expect?

I don't know, I never imagined you to you as an adult,

even when I received the wedding news,

I imagined you as the last one time I saw you

The chubby girl of the portrait.

And in all these years I I never thought much about you.

Now I'm corroded of regret.

Repentance?

Oh for the things we could have done together.

All the good things in the world that I would have shown you.

But you did it!

In a scrapbook second hand.

But maybe it was better this way.

Now you've seen me grow.

But I was chubby and weird up to 16 years old.

-I ruined your start. -Maybe.

Ah, but now...

The things I can show you now. Now that you're ready.

There's this lonely little island, in the Aegean Sea,

where Rupert Brooke is buried.

The grave lies in a small clearing,

the path from the sea It is rocky and wooded.

Have I told you this before?

No...

No.

Oh, Jessica... there's so much to see. and do.

Sail through the Gulf of Corinth, where the water is so blue

That feels like a dream.

With the whitewashed houses in Delphi in the distance,

and Parnassus, as when Agamemnon consulted the Oracle.

A friend of mine has a boat,

an elegant and silent yacht.

It is docked in Monte Carlo.

I can borrow it when want. Tomorrow.

All I need to do is send a telegram and say when.

Oh! Father! It sounds divine!

So shall I send it now?

Send what?

The telegram, saying that I need the boat

I want to show you the world to my daughter...

...and to my daughter the world.

Oh, father!

Sail across the Adriatic to the city of my dreams, Venice

and anchor in St. Mark's Square.

Venice at sunset...

We would go to Torcello, away from the logo,

to a charming inn, where there is wonderful food,

and pomegranate trees that They bloom in the garden.

Oh...

I have to tell Roger!

Roger?

It sounds so lovely! He will say yes!

So that?

To go.

Instead of Hawaii.

I am not suggesting that I will be your honeymoon guide.

But dad...

Oh, Jessica. you carry too much time hearing things.

And I so want to repair that.

I don't want to tell you how It is the Kashmir Valley,

nor how the mountains look out into the dark waters

from the deep fjords of Norway.

I want to show them to you!

But what about Roger?

You send him a postcard.

Dad, we're getting married on Saturday.

You can get married later.

But... what would I say to him?

Bye bye.

Father!

You are perverse.

I know.

You're trying again right?

Yes.

I was just trying.

Aren't you serious?

No.

No, of course not.

It's a cruel thing to do.

I know...

Sorry, I got carried away.

We will never do those things, right?

Probably not.

So many times I have dreamed of do that with you.

Maybe one day Roger and I we will do it.

Yes of course. You and Roger will do it.

Good night, daughter.

Good night, dad.

Good night.

Good night.

Let's continue with the list of places, Kate.

Bob and Nancy Petterson. First or second bank?

They're just second cousins.

Second bank.

Hey. Sorry for being late.

-We had several problems! -Shh.

Roger and Jessica still they have not arrived.

Where are they?

They went to the ranch have lunch with his father.

Come on, Kate.

You asked me to help you but I'm doing it all myself.

I wish they were gone already. As I wish

that they were already married and traveling.

Me too.

Now, Where do I put the Pettersons?

I don't care where you will put the Pettersons,

put them where you want. They are your family.

You don't have to be so arrogant

just because all your Relatives are already dead.

Excluding those present, of course.

Thank you.

Something is going to happen. I have a feeling.

Why did you decide to go to the ranch today?

It was my idea.

That?

And it's great, by the way.

I called Roger today in the morning,

And I said, "Roger,

"This man could be the father of Jessica, but it's hurting you

"and you have to react!"

-Now, where do I put the Loomis? -Was it your idea?

Kate!

Where are you going?

Somewhere I can scream!

Roger also thought that It was a good idea.

Take Pogo to the ranch,

make Jessica see it in front of Roger's good and simple life.

It's going to work. Jessica is not stupid.

Only you!

-Oh, Jim! Why did you have... -Oh, Kate,

What could go wrong with that?

I don't know.

But something tells me that It was a big mistake.

Something tells me you're right.

Arre, Silver!

Good, good, good. What happened to you?

He fell from a bull.

I don't see any fun in it.

Did you get hurt a lot?

Maybe we better call to Dr. Knapp.

Oh, it was nothing at all.

Roger's vet He took very good care of me.

Dad, I think you better get an x-ray.

Nonsense.

If there's anything I can say About me is that I am not fragile.

I also fell off a horse.

What a day!

I've been saying for years that I never I found a horse

that I couldn't ride.

I just found it.

Very good, Roger.

What happened?

Well...

I thought Mr. Poole it would be fun if we did

a kind of rodeo demonstration.

some of the boys they made ties,

They rode some broncs and then we hunted some wild steers.

Then he wanted to try it... Well, I tried to stop it.

Oh! You tried to stop him!

Telling him that it was too old!

-Well? -Hey why...

And you gave him the wildest horse from the ranch by the way!

It wasn't on purpose, he...

it is no longer the horse wildest on the ranch.

I ride it,

everyone on the ranch They can ride it.

The Chinese cook you can ride it.

And that wild steer, mom. He encouraged him.

-He dared dad to ride it! -He insisted on putting it together!

Why would I challenge a man? to ride a wild steer?

I'm not crazy!

He could die!

Oh yes...

Nonsense.

It just wasn't right accommodated That's all.

I would like to try it again another day, Roger.

Tomorrow?

I think that's enough for now.

There is no need to be outraged, daughter.

I've had worse falls.

For example, last winter, on a sleigh in St. Moritz...

We're ready, doll.

Shall we rehearse?

Yes of course.

I still don't know him.

I am the father of the bride.

And I'm Mrs. Mooney. Like...

Was something broken?

No, it was just a shake.

He rode a wild horse, you know?

Oh yes.

Oh, it was the left arm! What luck!

Well, let's go. Let's go there!

So the first thing we're going to do It's like walking down the hallway...

Roger, relax.

What are you trying? That she hates me?

Look, we are friends, everything was well and he launched himself at her.

-Look, Roger... -I don't like that kind of defeat.

She hates me. It's serious! She hates me.

She doesn't hate you, Roger.

Mr. Savage,

you know her well.

She'll recover from this, right?

Something in her has changed.

She will never be the same.

Because?

When the serpent said to Eve: "have fun",

So she was never the same.

I'm not sure but...

...may be.

Hey, what if we cancel the wedding?

If we get married secretly, this night, he will leave us alone.

-Oh no! -I don't think I'll last until Saturday!

Why wouldn't you hold on until Saturday?

Because of him.

Well, maybe you don't have to Hold on until Saturday.

Very good. It was you who said it.

Let's continue.

-If so... -Roger, why don't you go for a walk?

If he leaves, maybe we will stay.

I wouldn't like to intrude.

He does it.

Careful. I am your father.

Oh no. It is not.

I know about it. I raise bulls.

I send the semen, the calves are born,

but the bulls don't feel responsible. They don't care.

Oh, but I care.

Now?

It's too late, Mr. Poole. You disappeared. You ruined everything.

Oh Roger!

Well, I guess who decide that's me!

I don't think so. You are hypnotized.

Have I lost them?

Roger, that won't prove anything. Please.

Well, that has to be said.

I want the girl I love.

And he did something to you.

For example?

Like... make you think that life With me it will be boring.

That the only glorious thing and romantic what can be done

It's going around the world.

Doing nothing!

Being useless! Having fun!

I don't believe that life with you it will be boring.

But you're almost thinking about it.

I want you to be satisfied with the life we will have.

I don't want you to be restless.

I'm not worried!

-Damn it, it doesn't look like it! -You don't have to disdain his life!

I'm not disdaining her!

Yes.

Yes, I despise it. You are totally correct.

I don't like useless people.

I don't think there is anything romantic in a man who does not work.

My father started from scratch.

Made his way through of the Depression,

he built the ranch like sustenance for his family.

He is the most romantic guy in the world. world compared to him.

You were right. He speaks.

Oh, Jim,

Could you do me a favor and call Lufthansa

and reserve a seat for the flight to Frankfurt tonight?

Oh no!

Did you just see what you did?

That will give us a good start, right?

Why don't we go take a walk and...?

Okay, then look.

You don't have to get married.

Nobody will force you. Nobody holds you back.

But you have to decide.

You have to know what you want.

Because if you marry me, It will be real.

Roger...

Excuse me.

Are you ready? The first thing I want...

Jim!

The first thing I'll show you...

You are going the wrong way!

Don't worry, daughter.

I know you will be very happy.

Oh, I won't be happy...

I'll be thinking in you on Saturday,

when he's alone...

...somewhere over the ocean.

Oh no, father!

There will be other people on the plane.

Listen here. You...

Can you stop this sentimentality cheap and behave?

You stay until Saturday and then you go!

By jet if possible!

I'm glad I came, Jessica.

Remember this.

-Yeah...? -I will always be glad I came.

Yes...

And I'll cherish the memories of these few days

What happened... with you.

No! Father...

-Oh...! -The first thing...

-Jessica! Jessica! -Everyone is going the wrong way!

"What I do today is much, much better than anything I've ever done.

And the peace I have is much, much greater than the peace I have known."

You really are a scoundrel, Bidderford.

Why wait for them?

We can rehearse the way to the altar

Oh, come on. Hello, Bidderford.

Oh? Oh...

I haven't seen you, Mr. Savage.

I was looking for you, sir.

I'm not a doctor, but you you limp on the wrong leg.

You caught me.

Could I, uh...

accompany me with one farewell drink?

Always.

Ready to go, huh?

I thought your plane was leaving at eight.

At these hours you are not schedule arrangement.

You leave.

Furthermore,

I think the atmosphere of the airport It will be a little friendlier.

-Bourbon? -Uh, with ice, without water.

Have you seen Jessica?

The door was closed.

Better this way. I think everything has already been said.

Have you made up with Roger yet?

No. But it will.

For a moment, in the church, I thought you had won it.

I also thought the same.

What was it that depressed you? The things he said?

No.

I beat him with words.

It was something more basic.

The sexual attractiveness of a young man antelope in its prime.

Nothing else.

Mr. Savage,

you, uh...

Would you say, like the young man antelope hinted...

...that I'm just...

...useless?

Well,

you are a race that is fading fast, Biddeford.

A man in search of pleasure and leisure in a sober world.

I am obsessed with beauty and danger and spend my life after it.

Is this trivial?

For a serious man, yes.

And you are a minority today in day, Biddeford.

Oh but who am I to judge?

I spent my life in a piece of earth trying to write

like Henry David Thoreau, and failing.

-Sorry for asking. -No, no, no.

You discover that it is not the truth is what hurts.

It's his sudden realization.

There is one thing I will say about Kate.

She always married men with good taste for whiskey.

Father?

I will go with you.

Sex is not everything!

That's what I keep repeating to myself.

Where is your mother?

I'll talk to her right now.

But first...

...are you taking me with you?

What if I take you?

Jessica?

It's not worth staying locked there, dear.

Come on, honey. Not pre...

Jessica?

Jessica!

Jessica!

-Well done, Pogo Poole! -Mother!

Jessica! Take those suitcases and go back to the room!

-She made her own decision. -I'm going to Europe with dad.

You will return to your room!

Mom, I'm not a girl.

Think of Roger.

If I am old to marry him,

I'm old enough to leave it.

Jessica, look at me.

Forty-eight hours before of a wedding,

you can't alone decide not to get married

because you prefer to go to Europe.

Why not?

What about Roger?

I wrote him a letter, I explained everything to him.

How beautiful!

He can distribute copies of the same in the church!

Don't look at me.

Dear.

You love him.

You know yes.

That's not the point.

She is not ready to get married.

I was until you arrived. She was excited.

Don't be vulgar.

Oh please. It's only for one year.

I want to come back after this.

Jess?

Roger.

It's only for one year.

I'm not asking you to accept me I return after a year.

If I'm going to do it, I want it do cleanly.

But if the man who love, still here, and alone,

when I come back and yes he still loves me...

Oh, mother.

Can't you understand?

This is something that I I need to do.

I know I'm taking a big risk, that I can lose everything.

But this is something I have What to do first!

For my father!

-For me? -Yeah!

The things you said last night

What is it you said?

That you are alone.

What else?

that you need someone that I loved you,

someone to look for you joy and fun.

Give you substance.

I didn't know that I needed "substance."

Do you remember what you said the day you arrived?

"There is so little time."

"So little time."

-You shouldn't take it literally... -And you said something else.

"Now I have returned, to grant something I never had."

You said that too!

-It's true, but... -But, it's not fair!

Can't you see it? You don't have to be alone.

No matter what happened in the past. It's not fair!

The most terrible thing in the world It is being alone and alone in your old age.

In my old age?

He needs me, mom, to fill the void in your life.

If I let him go now, alone,

I will feel a void inside me for the rest of my life.

A feeling of failure.

Because...

I never let my father had his daughter.

Just for a while.

His newly discovered daughter

newborn, grown and ready,

to give you love and comfort, and unconditional worship.

You will have your revenge, Kate.

This is how it falls directly in old age.

With a push in the back.

Father?

-I said something that... -Don't sacrifice yourself for me, darling.

I'm alone,

and I'll...I'll go alone.

It's no one's fault, much less yours.

I'm the father you never knew,

you are the daughter I needed know to love.

We know each other, but we need to separate.

There is no other way.

Your mother was right.

I missed the boat of shapes more diverse.

There is nothing you can do for me now,

as long as I know that you love me.

I listened to him....

and I have listened to you.

No.

The two men I love.

I'm back to tell you

that wherever you want to go is where I want to take you.

Paris or Rome, Venice or Athens.

It doesn't matter where, as long as you are with me.

Do you want the world?

I give you the world.

Now and always.

Thank you for not taking it away from us.

It was you and you know it, right?

It was your fault.

I wanted to show our daughter the things we had together.

You can't go back.

My years with you were years So glorious, Kate.

I could revive a little those good times with her.

It's not worth trying, believe me.

It's bad to go back.

Only if you are alone.

I know it. It's just not good.

Kate.

Do you remember what we did together?

No.

No, I can't.

I do.

I remember absolutely everything.

I remember a gray and hot day In a small town in Sicily,

we follow the sound of a wooden trumpet,

and we meet a young man who He said he would predict our fate.

He couldn't have been more than seventeen years, dark eyes,

curly black hair and a pointed hat.

You said it looked like a Renaissance page.

His luck, "long life and much happiness."

I think I might need of a drink.

I think so.

♪ Love, when I'm close to you... ♪

I gave him five dollars.

-I have something to tell you. -That?

Your plane leaves at 6:20.

I just checked with the airport.

Biddeford?

Well, there's still plenty of time.

It has two passes.

Two reservations.

Two? In whose name?

Both in your name.

Well, I don't think it's for Jessica. He gave up on her.

So who is it for...

Oh no.

Bye bye! Bye bye!

Little Jessica got married. And now?

That's how it is. And now?

They leave tomorrow at noon.

Well, they're gone.

Oh, Jim. There is one thing that I I wanted to ask you.

It's time for me to go,

and I want to leave as I came.

Only.

No, sir! I accompany you to the airport.

Oh, Jim. the governor still is there, and the mayor.

-I'll take it. -Oh, no. I want to see him go.

In fact, let's go in my car.

Very good.

Really, you don't have to go to see me take off,

Here it is easier for me to say goodbye, get in a taxi and leave.

Pogo, man.

I will not leave your side, until that you get on that plane.

Thank you.

German airlines Lufthansa announces...

Flight 451. Boarding at the gate E4 to Frankfurt.

United Airlines...

I don't know why I have to go see him leave go We already said goodbye.

I just want to see it rise on that plane.

That's stupid. I have so much to do at home...

That's your plane.

But where is it?

I don't think they are still boarding.

Oh that's too much sentimental for me.

What do you want to do? Say goodbye and cry?

Well, I'll say goodbye.

Where are you going?

I'm out of cigarettes.

-You can smoke one of mine -I don't like yours.

Jim, I want to go buy cigarettes.

But I don't want you to go.

Alright. So you go and You will buy them for me.

Oh no.

-What's wrong, Jim? -Your father will give you a cigarette.

He doesn't have cigarettes.

Do you want a cigarette?

-Would you please let me go? -Kate.

Don't do that.

Come back to yourself.

If you leave now...

...it will be the end of everything.

Are you saying that if I go to buy my own cigarettes,

will you divorce me?

-There he goes. -Really?

Goodbye, Pogo! Bye bye!

Carrying?

It's Jessica's portrait!

Jim! He took Jessica's portrait!

Pogo! Bring it back!

Pogo Poole, bring that portrait back!

Kate, let him have it.

It's the only thing...

Who is with him?

Kate! Kate, take Toy!

Toy? Toy, come back here!

Toy, where do you think you're going?

Bye bye! I'm going to see the world!

Island in the Aegean Sea where 'Lupert Blooke' is 'covered up'.
