1
00:02:29,455 --> 00:02:32,447
I bet a bright boy like you
could get me through this old gate...

2
00:02:32,624 --> 00:02:34,148
...if you wanted to. Hmm?

3
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:36,250
Jeb?

4
00:02:43,235 --> 00:02:44,395
Jeb, what are you doing?

5
00:02:44,570 --> 00:02:46,834
Mr. Rickards,
I forgot to give you this yesterday.

6
00:02:47,005 --> 00:02:49,565
I told you newspaper fellows yesterday.

7
00:02:49,742 --> 00:02:53,109
Nobody gets inside.
That's Mrs. Forrest's orders.

8
00:03:04,523 --> 00:03:05,751
Halt!

9
00:03:05,924 --> 00:03:08,051
Left face!

10
00:03:08,694 --> 00:03:10,889
Eyes left!

11
00:03:12,297 --> 00:03:14,595
Heads front!

12
00:03:42,227 --> 00:03:44,889
I'm sorry, gentlemen, no rooms.

13
00:03:45,731 --> 00:03:48,427
No rooms, no baths.

14
00:03:49,635 --> 00:03:50,863
No rooms, no...

15
00:03:51,637 --> 00:03:54,663
- Stick close by, will you?
- Oh, yes, sir.

16
00:03:58,210 --> 00:03:59,438
Still raining out, Bob?

17
00:03:59,611 --> 00:04:01,772
- A slight drizzle.
- Oh, dear.

18
00:04:01,947 --> 00:04:04,381
- Hello, Jane.
- Hello.

19
00:04:05,350 --> 00:04:08,751
Steve. What in the wor...?

20
00:04:08,921 --> 00:04:12,049
Steven O'Malley.

21
00:04:12,224 --> 00:04:13,816
Oh, gee, let me...

22
00:04:13,992 --> 00:04:16,153
Come over here
and let me take a look at you.

23
00:04:16,328 --> 00:04:20,287
Oh, I can't believe it, Stevie.

24
00:04:20,465 --> 00:04:22,865
Oh, imagine eating your heart 
out for a guy for two years.

25
00:04:23,035 --> 00:04:24,627
You see him, you don't even recognize him.

26
00:04:24,803 --> 00:04:26,771
- Careful, I might take you seriously.
- Oh.

27
00:04:26,939 --> 00:04:28,167
- Want coffee?
- No, thanks.

28
00:04:28,340 --> 00:04:30,604
Get me a cup of coffee.
Plenty of cream and sugar.

29
00:04:30,776 --> 00:04:33,802
Where I've been, you don't get cream
and sugar, you don't get coffee.

30
00:04:33,979 --> 00:04:36,504
It's your eyes, that's what it is.

31
00:04:37,216 --> 00:04:39,844
You've seen an awful lot over there,
haven't you, Stevie?

32
00:04:40,586 --> 00:04:41,678
Is it that bad?

33
00:04:42,087 --> 00:04:45,113
Were you in a concentration camp
or with the Berlin Press Bureau?

34
00:04:45,290 --> 00:04:47,281
I'm still wondering, Jane.

35
00:04:47,459 --> 00:04:49,893
Oh. Well, did it hurt much?

36
00:04:50,062 --> 00:04:51,723
Jane, Jane, Jane. Did what hurt?

37
00:04:51,897 --> 00:04:54,297
- When Hitler kicked you out?
- Oh, ha, ha. Hit...

38
00:04:54,466 --> 00:04:56,331
Ha, ha.
- Thanks, good.

39
00:04:56,501 --> 00:04:58,765
- Good old Janie, my, it's nice to see you.
- Oh, Stevie.

40
00:04:58,937 --> 00:05:02,100
- How am I gonna get a room in this joint?
- Didn't you wire?

41
00:05:02,274 --> 00:05:05,243
Tsk. Oh, Steven, honestly.
Come on, follow Grandma.

42
00:05:05,410 --> 00:05:07,139
Uh, Mr. Arbuthnot,
guess what's happened?

43
00:05:07,312 --> 00:05:09,041
The hot water doesn't run.

44
00:05:09,214 --> 00:05:12,479
No, no, even worse than that.
My husband just arrived.

45
00:05:12,651 --> 00:05:15,211
Uh, change the register to read
Mr. And Mrs. O'Malley, please.

46
00:05:15,387 --> 00:05:17,116
Ha, ha. Come, darling.

47
00:05:17,289 --> 00:05:19,519
Oh. Freddie, isn't it wonderful
to have Steve back?

48
00:05:19,691 --> 00:05:22,091
Well, it's wonderful to have you back,
but not this wonderful.

49
00:05:23,462 --> 00:05:26,260
- You're kidding about that Mrs. O'Malley?
- Of course, dear.

50
00:05:26,431 --> 00:05:27,989
- Did you know he was coming?
- Mm-mm.

51
00:05:28,166 --> 00:05:29,531
Nobody knows I'm back but the boss.

52
00:05:29,701 --> 00:05:31,999
Got it.
I'll take your room, you move in with Steve.

53
00:05:32,170 --> 00:05:34,695
Oh, fine. The five other men in my room
will welcome you.

54
00:05:34,873 --> 00:05:37,307
Oh, great. Of course, Steven
we could get married...

55
00:05:37,476 --> 00:05:38,909
...or use the room in shifts.

56
00:05:39,077 --> 00:05:40,476
My best hours are from 3 to 10.

57
00:05:40,646 --> 00:05:41,977
- Those are mine too.
- Oh.

58
00:05:42,147 --> 00:05:43,910
- We better push along.
- Yeah, let's go.

59
00:05:44,082 --> 00:05:46,346
Now, guard those with your life, sonny.

60
00:05:46,518 --> 00:05:48,884
- Ah, O'Malley. How are you?
- Fine, Mr. Ambassador.

61
00:05:49,054 --> 00:05:52,751
I thought they'd have chopped
your head off by now. I'm glad they didn't.

62
00:06:00,799 --> 00:06:02,323
Oh, just a considerate guy.

63
00:06:02,501 --> 00:06:04,162
He knows
when two people wanna be alone.

64
00:06:04,336 --> 00:06:08,397
Oh, don't be silly.
He doesn't even know I'm alive.

65
00:06:56,188 --> 00:06:58,816
Better come down from there, son.
You'll slip.

66
00:07:01,727 --> 00:07:04,753
Come on, son. Come on down.

67
00:07:04,930 --> 00:07:06,397
Come on.

68
00:07:17,009 --> 00:07:20,740
Steady there. Now, you mustn't let it
get you like that.

69
00:07:21,013 --> 00:07:25,882
If it hadn't been for me,
he'd be alive today.

70
00:07:32,858 --> 00:07:34,416
Hey!

71
00:07:35,761 --> 00:07:37,353
No news.
I've got it.

72
00:07:37,529 --> 00:07:39,861
Thanks. Thanks very much.

73
00:07:42,034 --> 00:07:44,400
Oh, boy, I'll say it was.

74
00:07:45,737 --> 00:07:48,365
O'Malley. When did you get back?
Hello, stranger.

75
00:07:48,540 --> 00:07:51,100
- Hello, Pat. You get a good one?
- Oh, not so hot, Steve.

76
00:07:51,276 --> 00:07:53,039
No, never mind. I'll sit this one out.

77
00:07:53,211 --> 00:07:55,270
Sit this one out?
What are you? A trained seal?

78
00:07:55,447 --> 00:07:57,039
- I haven't got any whiskers.
Ha, ha.

79
00:07:57,215 --> 00:07:58,477
I haven't got a deadline either.

80
00:07:58,650 --> 00:08:02,279
- Oh, he's a journalist, not a newspaperman.
- I'm a prima donna.

81
00:08:03,355 --> 00:08:06,722
- I'm sorry we got separated, Jane.
- Mm. How do you spell Frisbee? With a Y?

82
00:08:08,026 --> 00:08:09,755
Oh. Thanks.

83
00:08:10,462 --> 00:08:13,693
What's the matter, Stevie?
No more worlds to conquer?

84
00:08:13,865 --> 00:08:16,265
- No more hot water to scramble out of.
- Oh.

85
00:08:16,435 --> 00:08:18,335
Well, you might fall in love.

86
00:08:18,503 --> 00:08:21,028
No. No, I think I'll dodge that.
I've had luck so far.

87
00:08:21,206 --> 00:08:24,004
Oh. Tough guy, aren't you?

88
00:08:27,379 --> 00:08:30,678
"The accident happened at 8:00
or thereabouts.

89
00:08:30,849 --> 00:08:34,307
The coroner placed the washout
between 6:30 and 7."

90
00:08:34,486 --> 00:08:36,477
Heh. Don't mind Freddie.

91
00:08:36,655 --> 00:08:39,749
Ever since he helped the police,
he's taken to crime.

92
00:08:39,925 --> 00:08:41,825
Doesn't believe
in honestly broken necks.

93
00:08:41,993 --> 00:08:44,359
The bridge had been weakened
by the storm.

94
00:08:44,529 --> 00:08:47,464
- Maybe.
You're not on the level, Freddie.

95
00:08:47,632 --> 00:08:50,260
Could be anything.

96
00:08:50,435 --> 00:08:51,459
Even suicide.

97
00:08:51,636 --> 00:08:55,197
What's the difference?
He's gone, that's the real tragedy, isn't it?

98
00:08:55,407 --> 00:08:58,467
In Europe, I watched
most of the decent things of life change.

99
00:08:58,643 --> 00:09:03,512
But I could look across the Atlantic and see
Forrest standing here, firm as a rock...

100
00:09:03,682 --> 00:09:06,310
...standing for things
that were decent and honest.

101
00:09:07,018 --> 00:09:09,452
That's why I'm here,
to write the story of his life...

102
00:09:09,621 --> 00:09:13,819
...so that we'd always have it to lean on
in the dark days ahead.

103
00:09:13,992 --> 00:09:17,257
Thought it was gonna be easy
until I saw what he meant to these people.

104
00:09:17,429 --> 00:09:18,487
I'm not so sure now.

105
00:09:19,931 --> 00:09:22,559
It's tough on his wife.
She's got something to live up to.

106
00:09:22,734 --> 00:09:24,702
- That's why I wanna see her.
What?

107
00:09:24,870 --> 00:09:28,067
Get within 10 miles of
Mrs. Forrest, I'll give you the Pulitzer prize.

108
00:09:28,707 --> 00:09:31,267
I'll do even more than that for you,
I'll marry Freddie.

109
00:09:31,443 --> 00:09:33,968
Oh, no kidding, Steven.

110
00:09:34,146 --> 00:09:36,706
That woman thought Robert Forrest
was to be locked up...

111
00:09:36,882 --> 00:09:39,976
...in a safety-deposit vault.
The queen of Jericho.

112
00:09:40,152 --> 00:09:43,553
Say, she's built the highest, thickest walls
of Jericho around that place.

113
00:09:43,722 --> 00:09:46,816
- And you're no Joshua.
- Yeah, ha, ha.

114
00:09:47,526 --> 00:09:49,994
Huh. A visitor.

115
00:09:51,062 --> 00:09:52,427
Anything I can do for you?

116
00:09:52,597 --> 00:09:54,224
Yes.

117
00:09:54,566 --> 00:09:58,002
Mind your own business
as far as Mrs. Forrest is concerned.

118
00:09:58,170 --> 00:10:00,331
I heard what you said.

119
00:10:00,739 --> 00:10:03,401
Take a tip from me and keep off her track.

120
00:10:03,842 --> 00:10:06,436
Try to have respect
for what she's going through.

121
00:10:07,145 --> 00:10:10,603
Or it'll be my privilege
to knock your head off.

122
00:10:19,457 --> 00:10:22,688
He's a big man.
I don't wanna have any trouble with him.

123
00:10:23,228 --> 00:10:24,593
Gentlemen.

124
00:10:24,763 --> 00:10:26,697
Gentlemen, excuse me. Pardon me.

125
00:10:26,865 --> 00:10:29,959
Gentlemen, I have a few words
I'd like to say to the press.

126
00:10:30,135 --> 00:10:31,932
Fine.
- Lf you'll go into the parlor...

127
00:10:32,103 --> 00:10:35,869
About time we're getting news.
- You've been very kind, very patient.

128
00:10:36,041 --> 00:10:37,065
Looks like a lead.

129
00:10:37,242 --> 00:10:40,075
- You're the fabulous Steven O'Malley.
- My name is O'Malley.

130
00:10:40,245 --> 00:10:43,703
I'm Clive Kerndon, Mr. Forrest's
private secretary for the past years.

131
00:10:43,882 --> 00:10:46,248
Mr. Forrest was a great admirer
of your writing.

132
00:10:46,418 --> 00:10:48,283
- He used to quote you a lot.
- Really?

133
00:10:48,453 --> 00:10:50,011
Well, that's very nice.

134
00:10:50,188 --> 00:10:55,023
Uh, I wonder if I could talk to Mrs. Forrest
after a day or two.

135
00:10:55,193 --> 00:10:56,217
You're not going back?

136
00:10:56,828 --> 00:10:58,227
I'd like to see her first.

137
00:10:59,164 --> 00:11:02,133
How do you do?
Press conference will be in the parlor.

138
00:11:02,300 --> 00:11:06,100
Well, it's been a very great pleasure,
Mr. O'Malley. If you'll just come this way.

139
00:11:06,271 --> 00:11:11,208
All you do is blow your trumpet, Joshua,
and the walls of Jericho fall right down.

140
00:11:18,950 --> 00:11:20,645
May I have a glass of water please?

141
00:11:20,819 --> 00:11:23,549
Heh. These reporters are annoying,
aren't they?

142
00:11:23,722 --> 00:11:26,350
Mr. Midford is Mrs. Forrest's cousin.

143
00:11:26,524 --> 00:11:29,516
Oh. Oh, indeed.

144
00:11:29,694 --> 00:11:31,093
Poor Mrs. Forrest.

145
00:11:31,263 --> 00:11:34,596
I've wanted just to hold her hand...

146
00:11:34,766 --> 00:11:39,135
...but, of course, I wouldn't have
the lack of taste to bother her.

147
00:11:39,304 --> 00:11:41,295
Or you.

148
00:11:45,510 --> 00:11:46,977
- Drunk?
- Not at all.

149
00:11:47,145 --> 00:11:49,443
He was drinking ginger ale.

150
00:11:50,248 --> 00:11:51,943
Oh, poor fellow.

151
00:11:52,117 --> 00:11:55,575
He seems so overcome
by the family tragedy...

152
00:11:55,754 --> 00:11:59,349
...that he didn't even go to the funeral.

153
00:12:04,229 --> 00:12:06,697
I wonder why not.

154
00:12:07,532 --> 00:12:11,332
Gentlemen, if it had been my say-so, I'd
have thrown open the gates of the estate...

155
00:12:11,503 --> 00:12:13,971
...the moment the accident happened,
but...

156
00:12:14,906 --> 00:12:17,500
But I was acting
under Mrs. Forrest's orders.

157
00:12:17,676 --> 00:12:21,339
I've prepared a few brief biographical notes
that may help you.

158
00:12:21,513 --> 00:12:24,175
Possibly in a week or so,
Mrs. Forrest might relent a bit.

159
00:12:24,349 --> 00:12:25,941
<i>Robert Brindley of the Tribune.</i>

160
00:12:26,117 --> 00:12:28,950
- A bully job you did on those labor hearings.
- Thank you.

161
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:32,954
No, Mr. Brindley, I'm afraid even you
will have to bow to Mrs. Forrest's...

162
00:12:33,124 --> 00:12:35,319
...shall we say, unfortunate prejudices.

163
00:12:35,493 --> 00:12:39,122
- Of course, the poor woman is not herself.
- I tried to get in a year ago.

164
00:12:39,297 --> 00:12:41,857
<i>Oh, yes, you're Martin Snow
of the Globe Syndicate.</i>

165
00:12:42,033 --> 00:12:45,969
I remember, your obituary of Mr. Forrest
was a masterpiece.

166
00:12:46,137 --> 00:12:48,901
Your description of him
in the Argonne Offensive.

167
00:12:49,074 --> 00:12:53,477
"That tattered scarecrow youth
standing in a sort of ecstasy of faith...

168
00:12:53,645 --> 00:12:56,876
...against all the blazing powers of hell. "

169
00:12:57,982 --> 00:12:59,950
Do I quote correctly?

170
00:13:00,118 --> 00:13:03,178
Your description
of his men's superstitious belief...

171
00:13:03,355 --> 00:13:05,846
...that as long as Robert Forrest remained
on his feet...

172
00:13:06,024 --> 00:13:07,821
...no harm could come to them.

173
00:13:07,992 --> 00:13:11,951
Your handling of the Forrest legend...

174
00:13:12,130 --> 00:13:16,999
...his simple, homely,
Lincoln-like quality...

175
00:13:18,770 --> 00:13:20,499
Well, gentlemen...

176
00:13:21,406 --> 00:13:26,207
...I think I've known him
perhaps more intimately than most of you.

177
00:13:27,912 --> 00:13:30,244
<i>And I can say ecce homo.</i>

178
00:13:31,516 --> 00:13:33,814
That was Robert Forrest.

179
00:13:35,053 --> 00:13:38,716
Now, gentlemen, if you'll excuse me.
You've been very patient.

180
00:13:38,890 --> 00:13:41,222
We must be charitable and try to realize...

181
00:13:41,393 --> 00:13:44,260
...people don't appreciate
the importance of newspaper men...

182
00:13:44,429 --> 00:13:47,159
...as public servants in a democracy.
Thank you.

183
00:13:47,332 --> 00:13:48,560
Thank you.

184
00:13:48,733 --> 00:13:49,757
Mr. Kerndon.

185
00:13:50,435 --> 00:13:51,834
Oh, Mr. Kerndon.

186
00:13:52,003 --> 00:13:54,631
Mr. O'Malley.
Well, you will telephone, won't you?

187
00:13:54,806 --> 00:13:59,106
I'll see what can be done, especially
for you, but frankly, I haven't much hope.

188
00:13:59,277 --> 00:14:00,710
Goodbye.

189
00:14:02,680 --> 00:14:04,705
Blow harder, Joshua.

190
00:14:04,883 --> 00:14:06,680
Her Ladyship may be a little deaf.

191
00:14:21,032 --> 00:14:23,500
So long. See you at the next meeting.
So long.

192
00:14:23,668 --> 00:14:24,930
Have a nice day.

193
00:14:25,103 --> 00:14:27,094
- Who says there's no taxi?
- How long to the station?

194
00:14:27,272 --> 00:14:28,296
Twenty minutes.

195
00:14:28,473 --> 00:14:31,067
- Lf you walk fast.
- Walk?

196
00:14:31,242 --> 00:14:33,437
This is a taxi, isn't it?

197
00:14:33,778 --> 00:14:35,973
- It's busy.
Busy about what?

198
00:14:36,147 --> 00:14:38,945
Business, I guess.

199
00:14:39,184 --> 00:14:40,549
How far is the station?

200
00:14:40,718 --> 00:14:43,312
A nice brisk walk.
It will do you good, boys.

201
00:14:43,488 --> 00:14:46,924
- What are you staying here for?
- Health. Marvelous place, wonderful walks.

202
00:14:47,091 --> 00:14:48,991
I haven't walked since I was 2 years old.

203
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,151
I didn't like it then.

204
00:14:57,402 --> 00:14:58,801
Hey, Joshua.

205
00:14:59,504 --> 00:15:01,369
Jericho is that way.

206
00:15:13,051 --> 00:15:14,484
Going somewhere?

207
00:15:15,854 --> 00:15:17,253
I don't know. Are you?

208
00:15:17,956 --> 00:15:19,423
Maybe.

209
00:15:19,591 --> 00:15:22,651
Are you a snooper?
I don't stand for snoopers.

210
00:15:25,730 --> 00:15:27,197
No.

211
00:15:27,365 --> 00:15:29,492
Kind of a snooper. War snooper.

212
00:15:29,667 --> 00:15:33,831
Oh, well,
you won't find any war around here.

213
00:15:34,372 --> 00:15:36,863
You can come aboard if you want to.

214
00:15:40,345 --> 00:15:42,905
Did you belong
to that Forward America Association...

215
00:15:43,081 --> 00:15:45,709
...of Mr. Forrest's?
- They asked me to join.

216
00:15:45,884 --> 00:15:47,579
I guess it's a good notion.

217
00:15:47,752 --> 00:15:49,344
But I'm no joiner.

218
00:15:49,521 --> 00:15:52,046
When I march,
I like to march my own pace.

219
00:15:52,223 --> 00:15:55,681
And if I have to have a fight,
I like to pick it.

220
00:15:56,628 --> 00:15:58,425
You said you had no wars.

221
00:15:58,596 --> 00:16:00,291
Not in a manner of speaking...

222
00:16:00,465 --> 00:16:03,229
...but there's always good and evil
up against each other.

223
00:16:03,401 --> 00:16:06,598
A man's gotta take sides sooner or later.

224
00:16:06,938 --> 00:16:09,873
You'll know that one of these days,
young fellow.

225
00:16:42,507 --> 00:16:43,838
Good afternoon, Mr. Rickards.

226
00:16:44,008 --> 00:16:45,737
I phoned you this morning.

227
00:16:45,910 --> 00:16:46,934
It's no use.

228
00:16:47,111 --> 00:16:51,013
Somebody was telling me that you served
under Mr. Forrest in the last war.

229
00:16:51,182 --> 00:16:54,811
Mr. Forrest served under me. At first.

230
00:16:55,119 --> 00:16:57,246
Oh, you were his top sergeant?

231
00:16:57,422 --> 00:16:59,287
I was his captain.

232
00:16:59,857 --> 00:17:02,485
Later, I became his gatekeeper.

233
00:17:03,294 --> 00:17:04,818
Get that wound in the Argonne?

234
00:17:05,630 --> 00:17:09,361
Yes, Mr. Forrest got a medal
for bringing me in.

235
00:17:09,534 --> 00:17:11,729
And you've been with him
ever since, huh?

236
00:17:11,903 --> 00:17:14,337
Yes, Mr. Forrest was very kind.

237
00:17:14,505 --> 00:17:16,905
He believed in charity.

238
00:17:27,885 --> 00:17:30,046
Come back in an hour.

239
00:18:01,052 --> 00:18:03,043
What's the matter, son?

240
00:18:05,957 --> 00:18:07,788
Anything I can do?

241
00:18:09,360 --> 00:18:10,952
No.

242
00:18:13,731 --> 00:18:15,790
Might be able to help you.

243
00:18:16,668 --> 00:18:18,363
I cry sometimes myself.

244
00:18:18,536 --> 00:18:20,504
I've seen a lot to cry about.

245
00:18:22,407 --> 00:18:23,999
Where?

246
00:18:25,476 --> 00:18:28,104
Oh, France. Poland.

247
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:31,444
Very few places
where you don't wanna cry. We're lucky.

248
00:18:31,949 --> 00:18:36,750
That's what Mr. Forrest used to say
on the radio.

249
00:18:36,921 --> 00:18:41,221
And I killed him. I killed him.

250
00:18:41,959 --> 00:18:44,655
I should've warned him
about that mean old bridge.

251
00:18:44,829 --> 00:18:47,855
But Dad wouldn't let me go out
in the storm.

252
00:18:48,032 --> 00:18:51,024
I should've told him anyway...

253
00:18:51,636 --> 00:18:55,936
...because I was Mr. Forrest's man.

254
00:18:57,208 --> 00:19:00,371
Now I'm...

255
00:19:02,346 --> 00:19:04,211
...nobody's.

256
00:19:05,450 --> 00:19:08,317
Oh, no, that isn't. You're your own man.

257
00:19:08,486 --> 00:19:11,250
And nobody would tell you that any quicker
than Mr. Forrest.

258
00:19:11,689 --> 00:19:13,816
After all, dying isn't very important.

259
00:19:13,991 --> 00:19:18,519
It's the way we live that really counts.
Don't you think that's it?

260
00:19:18,863 --> 00:19:21,764
We've got to carry on for Mr. Forrest.

261
00:19:21,933 --> 00:19:24,493
We don't wanna be slaves, do we?

262
00:19:25,303 --> 00:19:27,294
Slaves?

263
00:19:27,505 --> 00:19:29,268
That's what they're fighting for.

264
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:34,036
Oh, that was the Civil War.
1861 to 1865.

265
00:19:34,212 --> 00:19:36,840
There aren't any slaves now.

266
00:19:37,014 --> 00:19:42,577
Not here maybe, but Europe's full of them.
It might be our turn next.

267
00:19:45,356 --> 00:19:47,051
How?

268
00:19:47,458 --> 00:19:48,789
Well, there are so many ways.

269
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:52,225
It would take me the rest of the day
to try to explain it to you.

270
00:19:52,396 --> 00:19:56,662
But the general idea is that they try
to get us all confused and scared...

271
00:19:56,834 --> 00:19:59,132
...and sore at each other...

272
00:19:59,303 --> 00:20:03,831
...and then before you know it,
clamp, the handcuffs are on us.

273
00:20:04,742 --> 00:20:06,004
Hmm.

274
00:20:07,712 --> 00:20:09,976
Would they really put chains on me?

275
00:20:10,148 --> 00:20:13,675
Not on your hands they wouldn't,
because you'd have to work for them.

276
00:20:13,851 --> 00:20:17,480
The chains would be on your mind
and on your tongue.

277
00:20:18,156 --> 00:20:19,953
Well...

278
00:20:20,658 --> 00:20:22,592
...what are we gonna do about it?

279
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,627
We're not gonna let them kick us around,
are we?

280
00:20:26,197 --> 00:20:30,497
You and I are free men today
because centuries ago...

281
00:20:30,668 --> 00:20:32,659
...some guy got the idea in his head...

282
00:20:32,837 --> 00:20:35,465
...he was just as good
as the fellow who was bossing him.

283
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,801
And what a fight that started.

284
00:20:37,975 --> 00:20:41,672
- Who won?
- It's not over yet.

285
00:20:42,847 --> 00:20:46,840
We lost a great fighter
when Mr. Forrest died.

286
00:20:47,018 --> 00:20:48,815
But he's still watching us.

287
00:20:48,986 --> 00:20:52,444
And he's still yelling at us to carry on.

288
00:20:52,623 --> 00:20:56,889
That's what I'm trying to do, you see.
I'm trying to write his story...

289
00:20:57,061 --> 00:20:59,962
...so that people will understand
that he's watching us.

290
00:21:00,131 --> 00:21:02,964
And so that they'll still hear his voice.

291
00:21:03,134 --> 00:21:06,262
Oh, let me read it, will you?

292
00:21:06,437 --> 00:21:13,104
Well, I can't. I need some help on it,
and some people won't help me.

293
00:21:13,277 --> 00:21:16,872
- Who?
- Mrs. Forrest, for instance.

294
00:21:17,348 --> 00:21:19,509
- Who says so?
- She won't see me.

295
00:21:19,684 --> 00:21:22,244
I bet she will when you tell her.
She loved Mr. Forrest.

296
00:21:22,420 --> 00:21:26,220
I don't know. I can't get into the grounds.
And she won't answer the telephone.

297
00:21:26,390 --> 00:21:28,654
I know she's there.

298
00:21:30,795 --> 00:21:32,456
- Do you wanna see her now?
- Yes.

299
00:21:32,630 --> 00:21:34,097
Come on.

300
00:21:46,244 --> 00:21:49,077
This is my secret way.
You won't tell anybody, will you?

301
00:21:49,247 --> 00:21:51,408
- I promise.
- Promise this way:

302
00:21:51,582 --> 00:21:54,449
"On my oath
as a true soldier for America...

303
00:21:54,619 --> 00:21:57,611
...in the Robert Forrest Boys Army,
I promise. "

304
00:21:57,922 --> 00:21:59,685
That's our oath.

305
00:21:59,857 --> 00:22:05,261
On my oath as a true soldier
in the Robert Forrest Boys Army, I promise.

306
00:22:05,429 --> 00:22:06,453
For America.

307
00:22:08,299 --> 00:22:09,561
For America.

308
00:22:10,001 --> 00:22:11,525
Come on.

309
00:24:23,267 --> 00:24:24,700
Hello?

310
00:25:58,028 --> 00:25:59,495
I, uh...

311
00:26:03,634 --> 00:26:06,068
Nobody answered the doorbell.

312
00:26:09,540 --> 00:26:12,737
That's a lie. I didn't ring the doorbell.
I couldn't find it. I just walked in.

313
00:26:12,910 --> 00:26:15,435
I'm sorry. I'm very sorry.

314
00:26:18,315 --> 00:26:19,873
Who are you?

315
00:26:20,050 --> 00:26:21,677
I'm Steven O'Malley. I'm a writer.

316
00:26:21,852 --> 00:26:23,786
Steven O'Malley is in Germany.

317
00:26:23,954 --> 00:26:26,718
I came back
just shortly before Mr. Forrest's death.

318
00:26:26,891 --> 00:26:30,759
I'd written Mrs. Forrest several notes,
and I'd like to see her for...

319
00:26:30,928 --> 00:26:33,123
Not necessarily tonight.

320
00:26:33,631 --> 00:26:37,226
I had visioned an older man.

321
00:26:38,068 --> 00:26:40,559
I am Christine Forrest.

322
00:26:41,038 --> 00:26:43,131
I had visioned...

323
00:26:43,874 --> 00:26:47,833
I'm terribly sorry to do this to you,
Mrs. Forrest, but I, uh...

324
00:26:48,012 --> 00:26:51,778
A friend of your husband's told me
you might be glad to see me.

325
00:26:52,116 --> 00:26:54,277
The gatekeeper's boy.

326
00:26:55,286 --> 00:26:57,550
- Poor little Jeb.
- Yes.

327
00:26:57,721 --> 00:27:00,747
Yes, he seems to think
that he killed, uh...

328
00:27:01,325 --> 00:27:04,021
Because he didn't warn him
about the bridge.

329
00:27:04,662 --> 00:27:07,324
Boys loved Mr. Forrest.

330
00:27:07,498 --> 00:27:12,333
I've had letters, sweet letters,
heartbreaking letters.

331
00:27:12,770 --> 00:27:15,330
He was the light of their eyes.

332
00:27:15,506 --> 00:27:18,066
It seems that the light has gone out.

333
00:27:18,242 --> 00:27:21,177
No, no. It burns brighter than ever.

334
00:27:21,345 --> 00:27:23,404
It must always burn. We must see to that.

335
00:27:23,581 --> 00:27:24,946
- We?
- Yes, all of us.

336
00:27:25,115 --> 00:27:29,176
All of us who were guided by that light,
who drew warmth from the flame.

337
00:27:29,353 --> 00:27:31,821
- And you can protect that flame.
- I tried to.

338
00:27:31,989 --> 00:27:35,891
Well, let us help you. You're not alone.
That's what I've come here to tell you.

339
00:27:36,060 --> 00:27:37,891
I tried.

340
00:27:39,463 --> 00:27:43,399
I had wondered
if you spoke as you wrote.

341
00:27:43,567 --> 00:27:47,731
I speak as I feel,
and I feel very deeply about this.

342
00:27:47,938 --> 00:27:51,396
- What do you want from me?
- The life of Robert Forrest.

343
00:27:51,575 --> 00:27:54,544
I can't give it to you.
It's been taken away.

344
00:27:54,712 --> 00:27:57,374
- There are things you could tell me.
- What would you like?

345
00:27:57,548 --> 00:28:02,178
The sound of his laugh?
The touch of his hand?

346
00:28:02,353 --> 00:28:04,253
I'm sorry.

347
00:28:04,688 --> 00:28:06,519
I'll go now.

348
00:28:07,358 --> 00:28:10,623
- Tomorrow perhaps?
- I don't understand you, Mr. O'Malley.

349
00:28:10,794 --> 00:28:12,819
I don't see why I should talk to you.

350
00:28:12,997 --> 00:28:17,263
I've seen you five minutes.
I don't know you, anything about you.

351
00:28:17,568 --> 00:28:19,832
I wish you would go.

352
00:28:20,371 --> 00:28:24,398
Funny, I've seen you five minutes,
and I feel I know you very well.

353
00:28:28,946 --> 00:28:33,076
I appreciate what you're trying to do
for Mr. Forrest.

354
00:28:34,018 --> 00:28:40,389
I regret
that I shall not be able to help you.

355
00:28:42,126 --> 00:28:44,424
Good night, Mr. O'Malley.

356
00:28:45,262 --> 00:28:47,594
Good night, Mrs. Forrest.

357
00:29:00,844 --> 00:29:03,210
Did you send for O'Malley?

358
00:29:03,714 --> 00:29:06,148
No, a friend sent him.

359
00:29:06,317 --> 00:29:08,444
But I'm glad he came.

360
00:29:08,619 --> 00:29:13,647
He has a wonderful face,
so honest and frank.

361
00:29:13,824 --> 00:29:16,190
He'd be a valuable friend.

362
00:29:17,428 --> 00:29:19,623
I heard what he asked you.

363
00:29:20,698 --> 00:29:22,290
Then you heard what I answered.

364
00:29:22,466 --> 00:29:24,434
That wasn't very wise, either.

365
00:29:24,601 --> 00:29:28,002
He won't bother to come back,
if that's what you're worried about.

366
00:29:28,172 --> 00:29:30,697
Having opened the door
to a man like Steven O'Malley...

367
00:29:30,874 --> 00:29:34,207
...you can't slam it in his face.
It wouldn't be wise.

368
00:29:34,378 --> 00:29:37,313
- It's been done.
- You must open it again, and invite him in.

369
00:29:37,481 --> 00:29:38,573
- Why?
- The man's no fool.

370
00:29:38,749 --> 00:29:40,649
He'll think you're trying to hide things.

371
00:29:40,818 --> 00:29:44,151
He's dedicated to writing a book,
a memorial to your husband's memory.

372
00:29:44,321 --> 00:29:48,815
If you refuse your appreciation, your help,
he'll start wondering why.

373
00:29:48,992 --> 00:29:55,420
I think Mr. O'Malley understands
that I have no heart for further publicity.

374
00:29:55,599 --> 00:29:59,057
But this is different.
He's not writing a gossip column.

375
00:29:59,236 --> 00:30:03,195
- What do you want me to do?
- Help him. Guide him. Use him.

376
00:30:03,374 --> 00:30:07,902
- The opportunity's past.
- Then you must make another, at once.

377
00:30:09,413 --> 00:30:11,540
You realize that you should?

378
00:30:11,982 --> 00:30:13,506
Perhaps.

379
00:30:13,684 --> 00:30:16,812
- May I have Mr. Forrest's keys?
- What do you want with them?

380
00:30:16,987 --> 00:30:20,582
He left me instructions to destroy
sealed envelopes in the event of his death.

381
00:30:20,758 --> 00:30:22,851
- What was in them?
- I've no idea, naturally.

382
00:30:23,026 --> 00:30:26,291
Naturally.
That was in the event of my death too.

383
00:30:26,463 --> 00:30:30,160
He talked to me about those envelopes.
I'll see to them myself.

384
00:30:48,485 --> 00:30:51,784
- Wasn't that the cousin?
- He's a little of everything.

385
00:30:51,955 --> 00:30:55,789
Cousin, gambler, high-stepper,
motorbike rider, farmer.

386
00:30:55,959 --> 00:30:58,291
Mostly motorbike rider.

387
00:30:58,462 --> 00:31:01,863
That is why the bank's selling his farm
from under him next week.

388
00:31:02,032 --> 00:31:04,933
Banks ain't interested
in motorbike riding.

389
00:31:05,102 --> 00:31:07,627
Didn't Forrest take him in hand?

390
00:31:07,805 --> 00:31:09,466
- What, him?
- What's on your mind?

391
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:13,167
When Forrest was alive, that young fellow
wasn't allowed inside those gates.

392
00:31:13,343 --> 00:31:14,708
- Why not?
- I would think...

393
00:31:14,878 --> 00:31:18,075
...it was because Forrest
didn't want him in there.

394
00:31:24,188 --> 00:31:27,157
- Your wife was asking for you.
- Thank you.

395
00:31:34,331 --> 00:31:37,926
Well, Joshua,
how were the walls of Jericho?

396
00:31:38,101 --> 00:31:39,898
Not so difficult.

397
00:31:40,070 --> 00:31:41,935
You saw her?

398
00:31:42,406 --> 00:31:45,637
Well, come on, give. What was she like?

399
00:31:45,809 --> 00:31:49,336
- Mm... You know.
- No, frankly, I don't.

400
00:31:49,513 --> 00:31:52,971
- Is she what you expected?
- A little younger.

401
00:31:53,884 --> 00:31:57,945
- Oh. What was she wearing?
- Wearing a sort of a hairdo.

402
00:31:58,121 --> 00:32:02,649
Ha, ha, ha. How nice.
She possibly had something else on?

403
00:32:02,826 --> 00:32:06,455
Hmm?
- What was she wearing, dope?

404
00:32:06,630 --> 00:32:08,621
White, I think. Yes, it was white.

405
00:32:08,799 --> 00:32:10,630
Hmm. Widows sometimes wear black.

406
00:32:10,801 --> 00:32:13,861
This was white. Soft, creamy white.

407
00:32:14,037 --> 00:32:15,163
Dress? Blouse? Suit?

408
00:32:15,339 --> 00:32:18,740
- Uh, nightgown?
- Dress.

409
00:32:18,909 --> 00:32:23,209
A dress. A white dress.
Zipper or buttons?

410
00:32:23,380 --> 00:32:24,972
Why don't you go back to New York?

411
00:32:25,148 --> 00:32:28,879
And leave this fascinating place
right at the height of the season?

412
00:32:29,052 --> 00:32:30,280
Uh-uh.

413
00:32:30,454 --> 00:32:33,150
- Freddie go to bed?
- Yes, we're alone at last.

414
00:32:33,323 --> 00:32:34,688
Heh. That's wonderful.

415
00:32:36,827 --> 00:32:41,890
I guess horn-blowing
is a pretty fair-sized job, eh, Joshua?

416
00:32:42,366 --> 00:32:44,926
You look all shot to pieces.

417
00:32:45,235 --> 00:32:46,600
Good night, sugar.

418
00:32:46,770 --> 00:32:48,635
Good night.

419
00:32:49,206 --> 00:32:52,073
Stevie, anyway,
you've got a room of your own.

420
00:32:52,242 --> 00:32:56,406
I told Mr. Arbuthnot you snored
and I'm getting a divorce.

421
00:32:56,580 --> 00:32:59,674
I must say, he seemed very upset
about it.

422
00:33:16,466 --> 00:33:19,958
Uh, tell me, Mr. Arbuthnot,
do you know Mrs. Forrest personally?

423
00:33:20,137 --> 00:33:22,037
Mrs. Forrest is a wonderful woman.

424
00:33:22,205 --> 00:33:23,638
Yes. Yes, I'm sure.

425
00:33:23,807 --> 00:33:25,365
- Have you ever seen her?
- Yes.

426
00:33:25,542 --> 00:33:27,237
Well, tell me about it.

427
00:33:27,411 --> 00:33:30,938
Was there a strange, eerie music,
like something not of this Earth?

428
00:33:31,114 --> 00:33:35,483
Did she float by on a cloud
or just rise out of the middle of a lake?

429
00:33:36,019 --> 00:33:38,146
- Good evening, Mr. Arbuthnot.
Mrs. Forrest.

430
00:33:38,322 --> 00:33:41,780
I wanna thank you for that beautiful
message you sent with your flowers.

431
00:33:41,959 --> 00:33:46,020
Well, you know how I feel...
How we all feel about...

432
00:33:46,196 --> 00:33:47,857
Is there something I can do for you?

433
00:33:48,031 --> 00:33:51,364
I wonder if you'd find out whether
Mr. Steven O'Malley has come in yet.

434
00:33:51,535 --> 00:33:53,696
I'll call him.
You mind waiting in the parlor?

435
00:33:53,870 --> 00:33:55,770
Not at all. Thanks.

436
00:34:02,779 --> 00:34:04,303
Come in.

437
00:34:05,182 --> 00:34:06,206
What do you want?

438
00:34:08,652 --> 00:34:09,949
Hello.

439
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:11,314
Hmm?

440
00:34:12,823 --> 00:34:16,315
Oh, really? She's downstairs? Hmm.

441
00:34:16,493 --> 00:34:19,656
Well, tell her to take her boots off.
I'll be right down.

442
00:34:20,030 --> 00:34:21,054
You bore me.

443
00:34:24,334 --> 00:34:26,029
Hello.

444
00:34:26,737 --> 00:34:27,999
What...?

445
00:34:28,171 --> 00:34:29,195
She's...

446
00:34:29,373 --> 00:34:32,900
Oh, I'm so... I'm very sorry.
Yes, I'll be right down.

447
00:34:33,777 --> 00:34:35,335
What is it, Steve? Some bad news?

448
00:34:35,512 --> 00:34:37,878
No, no.
Just somebody downstairs wants to see me.

449
00:34:38,048 --> 00:34:39,106
Oh, how friendly.

450
00:34:39,282 --> 00:34:42,217
- Do I need a shave?
- Well, it depends. If it's a man...

451
00:34:42,386 --> 00:34:44,980
- Well, it's not a man.
- I've got it, it's a woman.

452
00:34:45,155 --> 00:34:49,148
Well, your trousers need pressing. They look
as though you'd fallen into something.

453
00:34:49,326 --> 00:34:52,056
You haven't, have you, Stevie?

454
00:34:52,229 --> 00:34:54,220
You're a clever little snooper, aren't you?

455
00:34:54,398 --> 00:34:55,922
No, that's just it.

456
00:34:56,099 --> 00:34:59,125
If I were clever, I'd stop kidding myself
and marry Freddie.

457
00:34:59,302 --> 00:35:02,066
Hey. Listen...

458
00:35:09,346 --> 00:35:13,749
I hope you'll admit that it's a woman's
privilege to change her mind, Mr. O'Malley.

459
00:35:13,917 --> 00:35:15,475
Sometimes even her duty.

460
00:35:15,652 --> 00:35:19,952
That's what I began to feel
after I sent you away.

461
00:35:20,257 --> 00:35:21,724
You're going to help me?

462
00:35:21,892 --> 00:35:26,124
It seems to be the only way that I can show
my appreciation of what you're trying to do.

463
00:35:26,296 --> 00:35:29,322
You thought it strange, perhaps,
that I refused before.

464
00:35:29,499 --> 00:35:32,024
No, no. I didn't think it was strange.
I thought, uh...

465
00:35:32,202 --> 00:35:33,692
Tell me.

466
00:35:34,805 --> 00:35:38,172
Well, I thought you'd been hurt,
and I, uh...

467
00:35:38,709 --> 00:35:40,438
You're sensitive.

468
00:35:40,610 --> 00:35:43,306
You're too sensitive
to be hurt any more...

469
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:47,314
...by being made to talk about things
you don't wanna talk about yet.

470
00:35:47,484 --> 00:35:49,349
I was right. You are kind.

471
00:35:49,519 --> 00:35:51,316
You did understand.

472
00:35:51,488 --> 00:35:52,785
Then that's how it was?

473
00:35:52,956 --> 00:35:57,655
Yes, that's how it was.
And afterwards, I began to think...

474
00:35:58,595 --> 00:36:04,363
Well, you're not the sort of man one opens
the door to and then closes it in his face.

475
00:36:04,534 --> 00:36:07,526
You have the right to close the door
on anyone you choose.

476
00:36:07,704 --> 00:36:09,729
You seem to make all the excuses
for me.

477
00:36:09,906 --> 00:36:13,433
I don't think any are necessary.
I'm glad you changed your mind, though.

478
00:36:13,710 --> 00:36:18,704
Well, I've made a beginning. Here are some
pictures which have never been published.

479
00:36:18,882 --> 00:36:20,543
I thought they might interest you.

480
00:36:20,717 --> 00:36:24,380
I took most of them myself
just after we were married.

481
00:36:26,623 --> 00:36:28,454
This is interesting.

482
00:36:28,625 --> 00:36:29,887
That's one of the crowds...

483
00:36:30,060 --> 00:36:32,961
...that used to collect outside the hotels
wherever we went.

484
00:36:33,130 --> 00:36:35,530
I know this place.
It's in Germany, isn't it?

485
00:36:35,699 --> 00:36:37,394
Yes, I went to school there.

486
00:36:37,567 --> 00:36:39,728
I wanted Robert to see it.

487
00:36:39,903 --> 00:36:43,134
Even there he was known,
as well as all over France.

488
00:36:43,306 --> 00:36:45,274
And the crowds loved him.

489
00:36:45,442 --> 00:36:47,706
Crowds always loved him.

490
00:36:47,878 --> 00:36:51,439
Wanted to be near him.
Sometimes they'd reach out to touch him...

491
00:36:51,615 --> 00:36:54,743
...with a curiosity as though
to find out what he was made of.

492
00:36:54,918 --> 00:36:56,442
Here he is on a horse.

493
00:36:56,620 --> 00:36:58,850
He could ride with the best.

494
00:36:59,389 --> 00:37:03,223
I myself used to wonder
what made him so different...

495
00:37:03,393 --> 00:37:05,918
...so much stronger than other men.

496
00:37:06,096 --> 00:37:08,428
Did you ever find out?

497
00:37:09,166 --> 00:37:11,327
Yes, he willed it.

498
00:37:11,501 --> 00:37:14,231
And whatever he willed, he could do...

499
00:37:14,404 --> 00:37:18,397
...whether it was taking a strange horse
over a fence or...

500
00:37:18,575 --> 00:37:21,271
Or taking a hill in the Argonne.

501
00:37:23,380 --> 00:37:25,041
Yes.

502
00:37:25,215 --> 00:37:28,673
Whatever it was, whatever he willed,
he could do.

503
00:37:29,252 --> 00:37:34,417
Um, these are some notes
which I made listening...

504
00:37:34,591 --> 00:37:38,357
...to some impromptu speeches of his,
which have never been published.

505
00:37:39,129 --> 00:37:41,529
Well, these are fine, they're...

506
00:37:41,731 --> 00:37:43,358
They're fine...

507
00:37:44,434 --> 00:37:49,736
...but documents and photographs
are not really what I want.

508
00:37:49,906 --> 00:37:51,771
What I want is, uh...

509
00:37:51,942 --> 00:37:53,375
Yes?

510
00:37:53,910 --> 00:37:55,502
The truth.

511
00:37:56,046 --> 00:37:58,947
The truth, as you know it,
about the man himself.

512
00:37:59,115 --> 00:38:01,049
Well, that's what I'm trying to give you.

513
00:38:01,218 --> 00:38:03,277
And you have, you have.

514
00:38:03,453 --> 00:38:06,479
For a moment, I thought I saw him...

515
00:38:06,656 --> 00:38:11,218
...the crowd surging toward him,
the lovers' pilgrimage to your old school.

516
00:38:11,394 --> 00:38:13,555
But he's not here.

517
00:38:13,897 --> 00:38:17,663
Perhaps if you just talked
and let me listen...

518
00:38:17,834 --> 00:38:21,031
...and later on, let me wander
through the rooms in which he lived...

519
00:38:21,204 --> 00:38:25,470
...I could get to know the man
I want to write about.

520
00:38:26,343 --> 00:38:29,107
Will you come tomorrow afternoon?

521
00:38:30,013 --> 00:38:31,310
I shall be glad to see you.

522
00:38:31,481 --> 00:38:32,846
Thank you.

523
00:38:44,561 --> 00:38:47,553
Good night, Mr. O'Malley.
- Good night.

524
00:39:03,914 --> 00:39:06,610
Of course they're cousins.

525
00:39:07,550 --> 00:39:11,008
Cousins frequently console each other
in grief.

526
00:39:11,922 --> 00:39:14,049
Hmm? What did you say?

527
00:39:14,624 --> 00:39:15,648
Shh.

528
00:39:15,825 --> 00:39:19,693
I think I hear Mr. Forrest
turning over in his grave.

529
00:39:23,767 --> 00:39:24,791
Good afternoon.

530
00:39:24,968 --> 00:39:27,766
If you're looking for papers,
we don't get them till tonight.

531
00:39:27,938 --> 00:39:31,806
- No, I'm looking for a junior-sized football.
- Oh, yeah.

532
00:39:31,975 --> 00:39:33,135
Let me see.

533
00:39:33,310 --> 00:39:36,040
Oh. Oh, yes, right here.

534
00:39:37,314 --> 00:39:39,214
Dollar and a quarter.

535
00:39:39,683 --> 00:39:41,742
- Thank you.
- Thank you.

536
00:39:52,462 --> 00:39:54,987
Midford Farm.
Yes, Mrs. Forrest's cousin.

537
00:39:55,165 --> 00:39:57,065
I should have taken that down.

538
00:39:57,233 --> 00:39:59,360
Sale's off. Young Midford paid mortgage.

539
00:39:59,536 --> 00:40:02,562
Everybody in town's wondering
where on Earth he got his money.

540
00:40:03,173 --> 00:40:06,700
Cousins frequently pay
each other's mortgages.

541
00:40:08,845 --> 00:40:13,680
- I, uh, like the cut of you, young man.
- Thank you.

542
00:40:13,850 --> 00:40:16,842
Like you better
if you minded your own business.

543
00:40:17,020 --> 00:40:19,818
Robert Forrest's life is my business
from now on.

544
00:40:19,990 --> 00:40:22,049
I would think it was his own.

545
00:40:22,225 --> 00:40:23,988
He's dead.

546
00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:26,594
Dead man can't rightly defend himself.

547
00:40:27,163 --> 00:40:28,596
Oh, I'm not attacking him.

548
00:40:28,765 --> 00:40:32,064
Step into places you don't belong,
you never know what'll come of it.

549
00:40:32,235 --> 00:40:33,600
Look out!

550
00:40:37,073 --> 00:40:38,597
Close.

551
00:40:38,775 --> 00:40:40,800
Hi, doc.
My brakes ain't working very good.

552
00:40:40,977 --> 00:40:43,138
- So I see.
- Lucky you was here.

553
00:40:43,313 --> 00:40:45,804
- I might have run into something.
- Any damage, doctor?

554
00:40:45,982 --> 00:40:48,109
Oh, minor contusions
and slight abrasions.

555
00:40:48,284 --> 00:40:49,308
Nothing serious.

556
00:40:49,486 --> 00:40:51,579
I'm Dr. Fielding.
You're the newspaperman.

557
00:40:51,755 --> 00:40:53,222
That's right, doctor. How's Jeb?

558
00:40:53,390 --> 00:40:54,516
A little fever.

559
00:40:54,691 --> 00:40:57,626
- It's more mental than anything.
- I'll run in and see him.

560
00:40:57,794 --> 00:40:59,125
Looks better than ever.

561
00:40:59,295 --> 00:41:01,354
Yeah? Well, I'm glad you think so, Orion.

562
00:41:01,531 --> 00:41:03,897
What do I owe you for the improvement?

563
00:41:05,001 --> 00:41:06,764
Gratis. Gratis. Glad to oblige.

564
00:41:08,071 --> 00:41:10,130
- Who's sick?
- Young Jeb.

565
00:41:10,306 --> 00:41:12,240
Well, I don't feel so good myself.

566
00:41:12,409 --> 00:41:14,775
Last night I didn't sleep good at all.

567
00:41:14,944 --> 00:41:19,108
Sort of ached all up here
and all down around here...

568
00:41:19,282 --> 00:41:21,876
...and I have sort of a sore throat.

569
00:41:22,052 --> 00:41:24,111
Tongue's coated, ain't it?

570
00:41:24,521 --> 00:41:28,218
- Feverish too. No appetite at all.
- Well, take this in a glass of water tonight.

571
00:41:28,391 --> 00:41:29,551
Now, wait a minute, doc.

572
00:41:29,726 --> 00:41:31,557
I ain't coming to you professionally.

573
00:41:31,728 --> 00:41:33,355
Oh, I know it, Orion.

574
00:41:33,530 --> 00:41:36,988
We happened to meet and you happened
to get talking. There'll be no charge.

575
00:41:37,167 --> 00:41:39,601
Why, thanks, doc.

576
00:41:39,769 --> 00:41:41,600
And say...

577
00:41:42,972 --> 00:41:44,667
...my old lady ain't feeling
so good either.

578
00:41:44,841 --> 00:41:47,071
No? Well, that's too bad.

579
00:41:52,082 --> 00:41:55,017
- Looks pretty hopeless, don't it?
- Yeah.

580
00:41:57,353 --> 00:41:58,877
You're as bad as Mrs. Forrest.

581
00:41:59,055 --> 00:42:02,684
We played three games last night
and I beat her every time.

582
00:42:04,194 --> 00:42:05,525
She play chess too?

583
00:42:05,695 --> 00:42:10,257
Yes, and she's fine when she's got her
mind on it, but she has her bad days too.

584
00:42:12,702 --> 00:42:14,067
Does she come here often?

585
00:42:14,237 --> 00:42:18,640
No, I go to the big house, usually, and we
have sponge cake and hot chocolate.

586
00:42:18,808 --> 00:42:21,641
She came here last night
because I was sick.

587
00:42:21,811 --> 00:42:25,577
She used to come and see my sister
when she was sick too.

588
00:42:26,549 --> 00:42:29,313
She treats everybody swell.

589
00:42:32,255 --> 00:42:33,279
Check.

590
00:42:35,058 --> 00:42:37,356
Ah, you're too good for me.

591
00:42:37,527 --> 00:42:39,688
You win. I give up.

592
00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:48,169
Um, what were you gonna tell me
about your sister and Mrs. Forrest?

593
00:42:48,338 --> 00:42:52,001
Well, I said my sister was sick a long time.
She was Mr. Forrest's secretary...

594
00:42:52,175 --> 00:42:55,736
...and Mrs. Forrest used to come
and bring her fruit and flowers and things.

595
00:42:55,912 --> 00:42:57,903
That's her picture.

596
00:43:00,216 --> 00:43:01,615
Oh.

597
00:43:05,421 --> 00:43:06,752
Very pretty.

598
00:43:06,923 --> 00:43:07,947
Where is she now?

599
00:43:08,124 --> 00:43:09,250
Why, she's in a...

600
00:43:09,425 --> 00:43:11,154
She went away.

601
00:43:11,761 --> 00:43:13,661
Oh, to get married?

602
00:43:14,297 --> 00:43:15,821
No.

603
00:43:19,836 --> 00:43:21,997
Mrs. Forrest gave me my chess set too.

604
00:43:22,172 --> 00:43:24,299
Oh, did she really?

605
00:43:27,477 --> 00:43:29,945
Hello.
May I speak to Mrs. Forrest, please?

606
00:43:30,113 --> 00:43:31,444
This is...

607
00:43:31,948 --> 00:43:34,917
Oh, I wouldn't have recognized your voice,
Mrs. Forrest.

608
00:43:35,084 --> 00:43:36,381
This is Steven O'Malley.

609
00:43:36,553 --> 00:43:38,384
Steve O'Malley?

610
00:43:38,555 --> 00:43:40,546
O'Malley?

611
00:43:40,857 --> 00:43:42,518
Are you a friend of Robert's?

612
00:43:42,992 --> 00:43:44,425
I don't understand.

613
00:43:44,594 --> 00:43:46,585
Is this Mrs. Forrest I'm speaking to?

614
00:43:53,703 --> 00:43:56,638
- Hello, Mrs. Forrest.
- You can't speak on that phone.

615
00:43:56,806 --> 00:43:59,604
It hasn't been working
since the cloudburst.

616
00:43:59,876 --> 00:44:02,401
I just talked to someone
who said she was Mrs. Forrest.

617
00:44:02,579 --> 00:44:04,911
That's old Mrs. Forrest.

618
00:44:06,115 --> 00:44:07,275
Old Mrs. Forrest?

619
00:44:07,617 --> 00:44:09,244
You know, Mr. Forrest's mother.

620
00:44:09,686 --> 00:44:10,710
No, I don't know.

621
00:44:10,887 --> 00:44:12,650
Next time you wanna use phone, ask me.

622
00:44:12,822 --> 00:44:16,314
- Where does Mr. Forrest's mother live?
- Up the other side of the big house.

623
00:44:16,492 --> 00:44:19,461
- On the grounds here?
- Yes, this is a party line.

624
00:44:19,629 --> 00:44:22,291
Oh, the storm didn't put her line
out of order?

625
00:44:22,465 --> 00:44:25,662
No, that was the only one that wasn't.

626
00:44:26,169 --> 00:44:27,966
I could have ran to the big house.

627
00:44:28,137 --> 00:44:30,697
You stop that.
Nobody could have gone out in that storm.

628
00:44:30,873 --> 00:44:34,639
I could've gone to the bridge, warned him.
I could've stopped him from going over.

629
00:44:34,811 --> 00:44:36,676
He'd be alive today if I had!

630
00:44:36,846 --> 00:44:40,543
Stop worrying yourself sick, son.
- It's my fault. I failed him. I failed him.

631
00:44:40,717 --> 00:44:41,741
It's my fault.

632
00:44:41,918 --> 00:44:43,681
You stop that and lie down.

633
00:44:43,853 --> 00:44:46,754
I should have gone without asking you.

634
00:44:46,923 --> 00:44:48,151
Hear that?

635
00:44:48,324 --> 00:44:50,383
What's the good of talking to him?

636
00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:51,686
Please lie down.

637
00:44:51,861 --> 00:44:53,089
Come on, now, Jeb.

638
00:44:53,596 --> 00:44:55,086
You heard what your dad said.

639
00:44:55,265 --> 00:44:58,496
Remember, he's the first in command.
You've got to obey him.

640
00:44:58,668 --> 00:45:02,001
Mr. Forrest and Mrs. Forrest
would expect that of you.

641
00:45:04,073 --> 00:45:06,337
Oh, all right.

642
00:45:10,079 --> 00:45:11,979
Attaboy.

643
00:45:12,715 --> 00:45:16,549
I'll come back and play chess with you
another day. Next time, I'll beat you.

644
00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:17,777
- Bye.
- Bye.

645
00:45:21,524 --> 00:45:23,014
Um, uh...

646
00:45:25,361 --> 00:45:26,589
Thank you, sir.

647
00:45:26,763 --> 00:45:28,958
I'll get your car for you.

648
00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:34,461
I don't remember ever hearing anything
about Robert Forrest's mother.

649
00:45:34,771 --> 00:45:36,705
No, I guess not.

650
00:45:52,755 --> 00:45:55,349
You've seen terrible things.

651
00:45:56,626 --> 00:45:58,924
I've seen terrible men.

652
00:45:59,762 --> 00:46:03,493
Uh... I'm trying to explain to you...

653
00:46:04,667 --> 00:46:07,727
...why I, uh, won't be able to spare you.

654
00:46:07,904 --> 00:46:12,807
I'll have to pry and probe and force my way
into places where I don't belong.

655
00:46:13,309 --> 00:46:15,777
And I'll have to soak myself
in his way of life.

656
00:46:16,145 --> 00:46:19,376
Which is a way of life
that's entirely strange to me.

657
00:46:19,549 --> 00:46:21,540
Even this house. L...

658
00:46:21,718 --> 00:46:25,882
I've never lived as graciously
and beautifully as this.

659
00:46:26,055 --> 00:46:30,116
I've always sort of bummed around
in hall bedrooms...

660
00:46:30,993 --> 00:46:34,793
...and air-raid shelters and places.

661
00:46:34,964 --> 00:46:36,989
I'm a little lost.

662
00:46:38,668 --> 00:46:40,659
I'm lost too.

663
00:46:42,638 --> 00:46:45,072
I've got to find my way.

664
00:46:46,542 --> 00:46:52,777
At first I thought I'd keep everything
just as he left it...

665
00:46:53,282 --> 00:46:57,013
...but I see now that was wrong.
Nothing can stay as we leave it.

666
00:46:57,186 --> 00:47:03,853
All we can hope is that someone who loves
us will put away our playthings tenderly.

667
00:47:05,695 --> 00:47:09,096
And our follies and our failures too.

668
00:47:09,799 --> 00:47:12,165
Yes, and those.

669
00:47:13,169 --> 00:47:16,104
- Christine, I came as soon as I dared...
I was expecting you.

670
00:47:16,272 --> 00:47:18,536
This is my cousin, Geoff Midford.
Steven O'Malley.

671
00:47:18,708 --> 00:47:19,732
We've met.

672
00:47:19,909 --> 00:47:23,504
I promised to knock his head off if I caught
him making a nuisance of himself.

673
00:47:23,679 --> 00:47:27,706
- Do you want me to throw him out?
- Don't be foolish, Geoff.

674
00:47:28,050 --> 00:47:30,848
Mr. O'Malley's here because I asked him.

675
00:47:31,521 --> 00:47:35,048
All right, only it deprives me
of a pleasure.

676
00:47:43,666 --> 00:47:45,691
Here are the recordings
of the convention...

677
00:47:45,868 --> 00:47:48,393
...at which he was almost nominated
for the presidency.

678
00:47:48,571 --> 00:47:50,732
He must have been
very much disappointed.

679
00:47:50,907 --> 00:47:54,707
On the contrary, his attitude was, "If the
people want me, I'll be glad to serve. "

680
00:47:54,877 --> 00:47:57,971
But secretly, he was delighted
to get back to his own business.

681
00:47:58,748 --> 00:48:00,682
And his devoted wife.

682
00:48:00,850 --> 00:48:03,512
And his devoted wife, of course.

683
00:48:08,324 --> 00:48:10,155
Who hated Mr. Forrest?

684
00:48:10,326 --> 00:48:12,920
- Hated Robert Forrest?
- Yeah.

685
00:48:22,638 --> 00:48:24,936
What do you wanna go
and get a divorce for?

686
00:48:25,107 --> 00:48:28,042
Look, I've been married 32 years
and never a cloud.

687
00:48:28,211 --> 00:48:29,803
Never a cloud.

688
00:48:29,979 --> 00:48:33,972
A happy marriage is the most beautiful thing
in the world...

689
00:48:34,150 --> 00:48:37,085
...and besides, you save 2.50
on that extra room.

690
00:48:37,820 --> 00:48:39,913
Good evening, everybody.
Good evening, dear.

691
00:48:40,089 --> 00:48:44,583
Well, you look as happy as though
you'd discovered a body in a trunk.

692
00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:46,523
Better than that.

693
00:48:46,863 --> 00:48:47,921
For instance?

694
00:48:48,097 --> 00:48:49,826
O'Malley, the great reporter.

695
00:48:49,999 --> 00:48:52,524
O'Malley, the blower-downer
of the walls of Jericho.

696
00:48:52,702 --> 00:48:56,934
Oh, come on, Freddie, tell us.
Robert Forrest isn't really dead.

697
00:48:57,106 --> 00:48:58,767
- Oh, he's dead, all right.
Hmm.

698
00:48:58,941 --> 00:49:01,068
But his mother isn't.

699
00:49:01,744 --> 00:49:03,473
Well, go on.

700
00:49:03,980 --> 00:49:06,073
- He had a mother.
- So did Whistler.

701
00:49:06,249 --> 00:49:07,682
Yeah, but we knew about her.

702
00:49:07,850 --> 00:49:10,444
And I knew
about Robert Forrest's mother.

703
00:49:10,620 --> 00:49:12,417
- Have you seen her?
- Not yet.

704
00:49:17,159 --> 00:49:19,150
A deputation
from the Forward America Union...

705
00:49:19,328 --> 00:49:20,761
...Youth Section.

706
00:49:26,335 --> 00:49:29,463
<i>Hello, boys and girls.
I'm from the New York Recorder.</i>

707
00:49:29,639 --> 00:49:32,164
I think there are things
you young people could say...

708
00:49:32,341 --> 00:49:34,775
...that our readers
would like to know about.

709
00:49:34,944 --> 00:49:37,435
- Oh, but...
- We don't feel much like talking tonight.

710
00:49:38,347 --> 00:49:40,406
Mrs. Forrest wouldn't see you, would she?

711
00:49:40,583 --> 00:49:42,210
We don't blame her, but...

712
00:49:42,385 --> 00:49:45,980
- We did want her to have our flowers.
- And our formal expression of sympathy.

713
00:49:46,155 --> 00:49:48,589
- He's an artist.
- Show it to the lady, Tim.

714
00:49:48,758 --> 00:49:50,385
It's all done by hand.

715
00:49:50,826 --> 00:49:53,090
Well, let's see.

716
00:49:53,529 --> 00:49:57,659
Well, this looks like something
from the Morgan Library.

717
00:49:57,833 --> 00:50:00,666
Uh, your movement sprung up overnight.

718
00:50:00,836 --> 00:50:05,239
I've heard the experts trying to dope out
who did such a fine job of organizing.

719
00:50:05,408 --> 00:50:07,376
They're wrong.
There's been no organizing.

720
00:50:07,543 --> 00:50:09,568
- It just happened.
- Like it was needed.

721
00:50:09,745 --> 00:50:12,373
Yes. When Robert Forrest spoke
in Denver two years ago...

722
00:50:12,548 --> 00:50:15,312
...he mentioned he'd like young people
to write him their views.

723
00:50:15,484 --> 00:50:16,815
- So some of us did.
- Yes.

724
00:50:16,986 --> 00:50:20,080
His secretary wrote back thanking us
and suggesting we get together.

725
00:50:20,256 --> 00:50:23,020
And you did.
- Sure, we formed a kind of a club.

726
00:50:23,192 --> 00:50:26,252
Down in Alabama, we got our chapter
together the same way...

727
00:50:26,429 --> 00:50:30,160
...when he said over the radio he liked
hearing from boys and girls still in school.

728
00:50:30,333 --> 00:50:34,099
And we started our chain in Oregon, too,
from us writing and him writing back.

729
00:50:34,270 --> 00:50:37,137
Oh. And you came
from all parts of the country to...

730
00:50:37,306 --> 00:50:39,399
To place a wreath of laurel on his grave...

731
00:50:39,575 --> 00:50:41,702
...which we're aiming to do tomorrow.

732
00:50:41,877 --> 00:50:45,074
He cared about the world,
the whole world.

733
00:50:45,648 --> 00:50:46,672
And now he's gone.

734
00:50:46,849 --> 00:50:48,749
And nobody cares.

735
00:50:48,918 --> 00:50:51,352
You'd think she'd care enough,
just because he did...

736
00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:53,954
...to have let us give her some flowers.

737
00:50:54,123 --> 00:50:56,489
And our formal expression of sympathy.

738
00:50:57,460 --> 00:51:00,156
Oh, I don't blame you, of course...

739
00:51:00,796 --> 00:51:04,562
...but if you could see their faces,
I'm sure you'd know what I mean.

740
00:51:04,834 --> 00:51:10,136
Yes, I do know what you mean,
but I can't possibly see them tomorrow.

741
00:51:10,373 --> 00:51:13,171
No, no, it's impossible.

742
00:51:14,110 --> 00:51:17,409
I wish you'd explain to them
how sorry I am.

743
00:51:18,481 --> 00:51:21,416
Thank you. Good night.

744
00:51:21,917 --> 00:51:25,375
Oh, Geoff,
I haven't the heart to see those children.

745
00:51:25,721 --> 00:51:27,348
If I could only rest.

746
00:51:27,523 --> 00:51:30,549
Sleep, sleep and not dream.

747
00:51:31,460 --> 00:51:34,020
My poor dear,
I'm asking too much of you.

748
00:51:34,196 --> 00:51:35,595
No.

749
00:51:35,765 --> 00:51:37,699
No, we'll do as we planned.

750
00:51:37,867 --> 00:51:39,528
Get the car.

751
00:51:48,577 --> 00:51:49,601
Is Mrs. Forrest home?

752
00:51:49,779 --> 00:51:52,179
I've been asked to tell you...
John, who's there?

753
00:51:52,581 --> 00:51:55,914
It's you, Mr. O'Malley. Do come in.

754
00:51:56,218 --> 00:51:58,448
I've been trying to prepare
the ground for you.

755
00:51:58,621 --> 00:52:00,782
I have here the notes
regarding the branches...

756
00:52:00,956 --> 00:52:03,151
...of Mr. Forrest's
Forward America movement.

757
00:52:03,325 --> 00:52:06,260
There's a branch in every town and village
throughout the country...

758
00:52:06,429 --> 00:52:09,557
...devoted tirelessly
to the true American spirit.

759
00:52:09,732 --> 00:52:11,563
It represents... How shall I say?

760
00:52:11,734 --> 00:52:15,465
- A passionate desire for all those
who represent true Americanism.

761
00:52:15,638 --> 00:52:18,471
Mrs. Forrest has asked me
to show clippings of his speeches.

762
00:52:18,641 --> 00:52:20,233
They're magnificent, Mr. O'Malley.

763
00:52:20,409 --> 00:52:23,173
You'll enjoy them,
but, of course, you'll miss his voice.

764
00:52:23,345 --> 00:52:26,143
I have here various speeches
before Chambers of Commerce.

765
00:52:26,315 --> 00:52:30,183
Mr. O'Malley, this will interest you,
letters from boys and girls all over America.

766
00:52:30,352 --> 00:52:32,684
It might be better
if I talk to Mrs. Forrest first.

767
00:52:32,855 --> 00:52:34,220
I'm afraid that's impossible.

768
00:52:34,390 --> 00:52:36,722
- These letters are extraordinary...
- Why is it impossible?

769
00:52:36,892 --> 00:52:40,225
Really, the element of time must enter
into your calculations, I should think.

770
00:52:40,396 --> 00:52:44,264
- What does that mean?
- Last night, Mrs. Forrest left on a little trip.

771
00:52:45,968 --> 00:52:48,835
- For how long?
- It was quite sudden. Several days, I expect.

772
00:52:49,004 --> 00:52:52,565
Oh, this will interest you. Do sit down.
It's a record of their marriage.

773
00:52:53,375 --> 00:52:54,842
Which was a very happy one, huh?

774
00:52:55,010 --> 00:52:58,741
The answer to that, in political parlance,
would be a rousing affirmative.

775
00:52:58,981 --> 00:53:00,642
Political parlance, huh?

776
00:53:00,816 --> 00:53:03,341
- You dabble around much in politics?
- Oh. Politics?

777
00:53:03,519 --> 00:53:06,955
Oh, no, no, my talents don't run
along those lines, I'm afraid.

778
00:53:07,123 --> 00:53:11,753
Well, I think I'll leave you to get to work.
I think you'll find everything you want here.

779
00:53:11,927 --> 00:53:14,691
What about Robert Forrest's mother?

780
00:53:15,498 --> 00:53:16,965
About her?

781
00:53:17,399 --> 00:53:20,197
Why, she has her own establishment
on the grounds.

782
00:53:20,369 --> 00:53:21,927
Yes, I know. I talked to her.

783
00:53:22,104 --> 00:53:23,833
You talked to her?

784
00:53:25,207 --> 00:53:28,233
Yeah, just for a minute on the phone.

785
00:53:28,577 --> 00:53:31,068
I imagine she might be quite helpful.

786
00:53:31,247 --> 00:53:36,116
Oh, I'm afraid that's impossible. You see,
Mrs. Forrest is very old and an invalid.

787
00:54:54,585 --> 00:54:57,850
- Doctor, I've got the medicine for Jeb.
- Come around to the other gate.

788
00:54:58,021 --> 00:55:01,457
How is he?
- He had a bad night. He's better now.

789
00:55:06,163 --> 00:55:07,687
Let me see.

790
00:55:09,499 --> 00:55:11,228
What seems to be his trouble, doctor?

791
00:55:12,603 --> 00:55:15,231
The longer I live,
the more I suspect man having a soul...

792
00:55:15,405 --> 00:55:17,873
...that's at the bottom
of most of his bellyaches.

793
00:55:18,041 --> 00:55:20,908
He seems pretty little
to have soul trouble.

794
00:55:21,945 --> 00:55:24,846
Bugs have no sporting instinct.
They go for the little fellows.

795
00:55:25,015 --> 00:55:26,039
So it's a bug.

796
00:55:26,883 --> 00:55:28,942
Well, a fever, anyway.

797
00:55:29,119 --> 00:55:30,518
Hero fever, I call it.

798
00:55:30,687 --> 00:55:33,815
Very modern. Ever since we've been
getting out of touch with God...

799
00:55:33,991 --> 00:55:35,515
...we've been pushovers for it.

800
00:55:35,692 --> 00:55:37,660
And the young get it the worst of all.

801
00:55:37,828 --> 00:55:39,819
Indicating Robert Forrest?

802
00:55:39,997 --> 00:55:41,658
Yes. Yes, he was the hero.

803
00:55:41,832 --> 00:55:45,393
And Jeb is a high-strung,
sensitive little fellow, like his sister.

804
00:55:46,403 --> 00:55:47,836
Was she a patient of yours?

805
00:55:48,639 --> 00:55:50,504
Up to a point.

806
00:55:50,674 --> 00:55:52,665
What was wrong with her, doctor?

807
00:55:52,843 --> 00:55:54,743
Well...

808
00:55:55,279 --> 00:55:59,773
If you know what a nervous breakdown is...
I don't.... She had it.

809
00:55:59,950 --> 00:56:02,180
Robert Forrest had her sent
to a sanitarium.

810
00:56:02,352 --> 00:56:05,082
I suppose he felt partly responsible.

811
00:56:05,922 --> 00:56:10,018
- You mean she was in love with him?
- No, no.

812
00:56:10,193 --> 00:56:13,492
You don't fall in love with a god,
you just worship.

813
00:56:13,664 --> 00:56:15,393
Wear yourself out.

814
00:56:15,565 --> 00:56:17,294
Oh, not Forrest's fault.

815
00:56:17,467 --> 00:56:20,959
There was only one woman in his life,
Christine Forrest.

816
00:56:21,138 --> 00:56:22,935
But that's what he did to other women.

817
00:56:23,106 --> 00:56:24,437
And everyone else.

818
00:56:25,542 --> 00:56:29,501
Well, some of us held out.

819
00:56:53,537 --> 00:56:56,472
Now, if you want to do me a great favor...

820
00:56:56,640 --> 00:56:58,437
...you'll close your eyes...

821
00:56:58,608 --> 00:57:02,669
...and count sheep jumping a fence
at least up to a hundred.

822
00:57:03,013 --> 00:57:05,607
I know, you just want me to go to sleep.

823
00:57:05,782 --> 00:57:08,512
But I'd do anything you asked.

824
00:57:08,685 --> 00:57:14,521
One, two, three, four...

825
00:57:15,459 --> 00:57:19,657
...five, six, seven...

826
00:57:19,830 --> 00:57:26,133
...eight, nine, 10, 11...

827
00:57:38,515 --> 00:57:40,881
I brought the medicine for Jeb.

828
00:57:41,051 --> 00:57:42,780
Thank you.

829
00:57:46,923 --> 00:57:48,720
I've disappointed you, haven't I?

830
00:57:48,892 --> 00:57:51,326
Well, you haven't been much help yet.

831
00:57:51,561 --> 00:57:52,858
Are you angry with me?

832
00:57:53,430 --> 00:57:55,694
I was mad, yes.

833
00:57:56,833 --> 00:57:58,391
But after I saw you, I...

834
00:58:06,443 --> 00:58:11,574
You thought I'd promised to help you,
then gone away and left you in the lurch.

835
00:58:11,748 --> 00:58:13,716
I didn't run away, Mr. O'Malley.

836
00:58:15,185 --> 00:58:20,418
Whatever happens, life won't stop for you.
There are things that must be done.

837
00:58:21,224 --> 00:58:24,091
Oh, that's all right.
I had no reason to resent anything.

838
00:58:24,261 --> 00:58:26,422
My questions could wait.

839
00:58:27,164 --> 00:58:29,758
Are there many of them?

840
00:58:29,933 --> 00:58:31,594
Quite a number.

841
00:58:32,436 --> 00:58:34,563
Couldn't you...?
Couldn't you ask Mr. Kerndon?

842
00:58:34,738 --> 00:58:38,230
I could, but there are some
I wouldn't like to ask him.

843
00:58:42,612 --> 00:58:43,943
I'm afraid you're rather exacting.

844
00:58:45,348 --> 00:58:47,646
I think I hear my car.

845
00:58:52,189 --> 00:58:54,817
After all, it was your idea
that I come up here.

846
00:58:54,991 --> 00:58:57,152
Naturally, I expected to ask questions.

847
00:58:57,327 --> 00:58:59,795
- Naturally.
- For instance, about Mr. Forrest's mother.

848
00:58:59,963 --> 00:59:01,396
She can tell you nothing.

849
00:59:01,565 --> 00:59:05,729
Uh, Mrs. Forrest is very old.
She's been an invalid for years.

850
00:59:05,902 --> 00:59:09,360
- Nobody sees her.
- That's what the secretary told me.

851
00:59:10,340 --> 00:59:13,400
But I talked to her.
Just for a second on the phone.

852
00:59:13,577 --> 00:59:14,874
Really?

853
00:59:15,045 --> 00:59:16,979
If you'd care to come up to the house...

854
00:59:17,147 --> 00:59:20,048
...I'll try to tell you anything
you want to know.

855
00:59:20,517 --> 00:59:22,815
We're leaving now, Jason.
Jeb's agreed to sleep...

856
00:59:22,986 --> 00:59:25,477
...but if he should get restless,
his medicine's on the table.

857
00:59:25,655 --> 00:59:27,919
That's fine.
He's been like Janet all over again.

858
00:59:28,091 --> 00:59:29,149
It scared me.

859
00:59:29,326 --> 00:59:31,817
They're putting the telephone lines
underground.

860
00:59:31,995 --> 00:59:34,259
Maybe they won't blame me
next time the lines go out...

861
00:59:34,431 --> 00:59:35,898
Nobody blames you, Jason.

862
00:59:36,066 --> 00:59:37,090
Jeb does.

863
00:59:37,267 --> 00:59:40,464
In spite of the fact that I got an answer up
at the old lady's house.

864
00:59:40,637 --> 00:59:43,037
They should've warned Mr. Forrest.
They were closer.

865
00:59:43,206 --> 00:59:46,039
It does no good to think about that now.

866
00:59:46,443 --> 00:59:48,377
No, I suppose not.

867
00:59:48,645 --> 00:59:51,409
He saved my life.
I'd never thanked him for that...

868
00:59:51,581 --> 00:59:54,049
...but I didn't wish him dead either.

869
01:00:03,293 --> 01:00:05,420
All right, you can go on now.

870
01:00:10,700 --> 01:00:14,261
- You were startled at what Jason said.
- Kind of.

871
01:00:14,437 --> 01:00:17,565
Something left over from shell shock.

872
01:00:17,741 --> 01:00:20,403
He was really devoted to Mr. Forrest.

873
01:00:20,577 --> 01:00:22,135
No, thank you.

874
01:00:22,746 --> 01:00:25,510
What is that stone building?
Is that, uh...? Is that an old fort?

875
01:00:26,116 --> 01:00:29,244
Yes, built about 1745.

876
01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:32,753
Built without windows
against the Indians, huh?

877
01:00:32,923 --> 01:00:35,824
That's what Robert loved about it,
nobody to look in on him...

878
01:00:35,992 --> 01:00:39,189
...when he wanted to be alone.
He called it his arsenal of ideas.

879
01:00:39,362 --> 01:00:42,661
- Mind if I look in sometime?
- Not at all.

880
01:00:42,832 --> 01:00:46,598
I must try to find where Robert left the key.
He always kept it locked.

881
01:00:48,505 --> 01:00:51,030
How do you do?
- Oh. Will you look after Mr. O'Malley?

882
01:00:51,207 --> 01:00:53,198
- Yes. Did you have a pleasant trip?
- Very.

883
01:00:53,376 --> 01:00:56,277
- I'd like my dressing case from the car.
- How's the biography?

884
01:00:56,446 --> 01:00:58,505
I've written three words in as many days.

885
01:00:58,682 --> 01:01:01,412
It'll go quicker now
that Mrs. Forrest is back, I'm sure.

886
01:01:01,585 --> 01:01:04,952
- Oh, will you excuse me a moment?
- Yes.

887
01:01:08,058 --> 01:01:10,788
Why didn't you leave the key?
I could've taken care of everything.

888
01:01:10,961 --> 01:01:14,226
- I'll tell you when I've decided what to do.
- You'll tell me?

889
01:01:15,398 --> 01:01:17,025
Thank you.

890
01:02:47,257 --> 01:02:51,193
That was his finest speech. In the
recording, you miss his great personality...

891
01:02:51,361 --> 01:02:55,661
...his picturesque figure emphasizing
dramatically the simplest statement...

892
01:02:56,066 --> 01:02:58,933
...driving his thoughts
into the minds of people.

893
01:02:59,135 --> 01:03:01,365
None could withstand him.

894
01:03:03,173 --> 01:03:05,300
You're not bad yourself.

895
01:03:05,642 --> 01:03:08,543
You really should take up politics
as a career.

896
01:03:08,712 --> 01:03:10,873
You're joking.
My job's nearly finished here.

897
01:03:11,047 --> 01:03:13,515
If you happen to know
of any secretarial positions...

898
01:03:13,683 --> 01:03:17,585
Why, Gregg, Wier and Perkins
ought to have something for a man like you.

899
01:03:17,787 --> 01:03:18,845
What do they do?

900
01:03:19,789 --> 01:03:23,782
They're an advertising firm.
They manufacture rousing affirmatives.

901
01:03:23,960 --> 01:03:27,760
If you wanted to create a nice feeling
in the minds of the public about someone...

902
01:03:27,931 --> 01:03:30,525
...say, Mrs. Forrest for example...

903
01:03:30,967 --> 01:03:34,266
...Gregg, Wier and Perkins would plant
little articles in the newspaper...

904
01:03:34,437 --> 01:03:38,032
...about what a helpful wife she was,
and so forth.

905
01:03:38,208 --> 01:03:41,143
Before long, the public would give her
a rousing affirmative.

906
01:03:41,311 --> 01:03:42,903
That's rather clever, isn't it?

907
01:03:43,079 --> 01:03:45,741
Mm. A little sad too.

908
01:03:46,116 --> 01:03:48,812
It's a pity
how easily people can be fooled.

909
01:04:03,700 --> 01:04:06,669
Uh, what is that stone building
over there?

910
01:04:07,170 --> 01:04:10,230
It's the arsenal, hasn't been used
for anything but a storehouse.

911
01:04:14,544 --> 01:04:18,844
Um, maybe Mrs. Forrest decided
to take a little rest.

912
01:04:19,015 --> 01:04:20,642
I think I'll take a stroll.

913
01:04:43,072 --> 01:04:46,769
Long distance? New York. Circle 50598.

914
01:04:47,076 --> 01:04:48,407
Yes.

915
01:04:52,215 --> 01:04:53,910
Mr. Kerndon, sir.

916
01:04:54,083 --> 01:04:55,311
No, no, no, not yet.

917
01:04:55,485 --> 01:04:57,350
There's no need to worry, sir.

918
01:04:58,087 --> 01:04:59,850
She's in there now.

919
01:05:01,057 --> 01:05:02,456
Yes, sir.

920
01:05:02,625 --> 01:05:04,354
I know my duty.

921
01:05:04,794 --> 01:05:06,659
I know what must be done.

922
01:05:07,564 --> 01:05:09,327
Nothing will prevent my doing it.

923
01:05:30,520 --> 01:05:32,988
Did you get restless, Mr. O'Malley?

924
01:05:33,156 --> 01:05:35,784
I seem always to be apologizing
for wasting your time.

925
01:05:39,529 --> 01:05:41,929
But as we drove by, I remembered...

926
01:05:42,098 --> 01:05:44,862
I remembered something
that I should have destroyed.

927
01:05:45,034 --> 01:05:48,026
- Before the biographer could see it?
- Before anyone could see it.

928
01:05:48,204 --> 01:05:50,900
They were personal letters written to me
by Robert...

929
01:05:51,074 --> 01:05:52,974
...in the early days of our marriage.

930
01:05:53,142 --> 01:05:55,804
Whenever he was away,
he never failed to write.

931
01:05:55,979 --> 01:05:58,675
You may be robbing the world
of some great love letters.

932
01:05:58,848 --> 01:06:02,181
They weren't written to the world,
they were written to me.

933
01:06:11,527 --> 01:06:14,394
Now, you keep this bandage soaked
with liniment, Piggot.

934
01:06:14,564 --> 01:06:15,929
Yes, sir.

935
01:06:16,633 --> 01:06:18,692
There, that ought to help you, Diana.

936
01:06:18,868 --> 01:06:22,929
- You think she'll be all right?
- I won't be able to say for a day or two.

937
01:06:23,339 --> 01:06:26,934
We have to be versatile in the country.
Last week, I put a splint on a rabbit.

938
01:06:27,110 --> 01:06:29,374
- What's wrong with the mare?
- She pulled a tendon.

939
01:06:29,545 --> 01:06:32,446
- Bad?
- Well, likely, she'll have to be fired.

940
01:06:32,615 --> 01:06:35,743
What do you mean by galloping that mare
after she cast a shoe?

941
01:06:35,919 --> 01:06:39,912
Worse, she was galloping with a shoe
half off. That's when the trouble came in.

942
01:06:40,089 --> 01:06:41,954
How far did you gallop her
before she went lame?

943
01:06:42,125 --> 01:06:43,149
I don't remember.

944
01:06:43,326 --> 01:06:45,226
The storm frightened Diana
and she bolted.

945
01:06:45,929 --> 01:06:47,590
Was that the night of?

946
01:06:48,364 --> 01:06:50,559
Yes, the night Robert was killed.

947
01:06:50,867 --> 01:06:52,334
It was a bad day all around.

948
01:06:53,336 --> 01:06:55,861
I wish you'd phoned
from Mr. Forrest's mother's house...

949
01:06:56,039 --> 01:06:59,634
...for the station wagon.
- I tried to, but the line was out of order.

950
01:06:59,809 --> 01:07:02,744
Were you at the mother's house when...?
Just before the accident?

951
01:07:02,912 --> 01:07:04,573
Yes, I came from there.

952
01:07:04,747 --> 01:07:07,841
Yeah, it was a sad trick of fate
that Diana bolted.

953
01:07:08,017 --> 01:07:11,783
If she hadn't, I could have come
by the shortcut and seen the bridge...

954
01:07:11,955 --> 01:07:14,116
...then I should have warned Robert.

955
01:07:14,290 --> 01:07:17,748
Professionally speaking, I'm more worried
about you than I am the mare.

956
01:07:17,927 --> 01:07:21,192
Why don't you take our young friend
for a ride? Do you both good.

957
01:07:21,364 --> 01:07:23,764
- He knows quite a bit about horses.
- I'd like to go.

958
01:07:23,933 --> 01:07:26,925
I'll get you some things.
Have Kay and Boots saddled after lunch.

959
01:07:27,103 --> 01:07:28,900
Yes, ma'am.
- Thank you for helping us.

960
01:07:29,072 --> 01:07:31,597
- Bye, doctor.
- So long, my boy.

961
01:07:40,750 --> 01:07:43,617
- No use running away from things.
- No?

962
01:07:43,786 --> 01:07:47,347
Robert's death is always on your mind,
as it is on mine.

963
01:07:47,523 --> 01:07:49,855
We might as well talk about it.

964
01:07:50,393 --> 01:07:54,056
It seems awful to think that if it hadn't
been for Diana, you might have seen...

965
01:07:54,230 --> 01:07:55,629
That the bridge was dangerous?

966
01:07:55,798 --> 01:07:58,358
Or that someone had helped
make it dangerous.

967
01:07:58,534 --> 01:08:00,297
Why should you think that?

968
01:08:00,470 --> 01:08:02,267
Why should anyone think it?

969
01:08:02,438 --> 01:08:06,738
Because there are always little fellows
who are willing to tear a great man down...

970
01:08:06,909 --> 01:08:08,069
...in one way or another.

971
01:08:08,845 --> 01:08:11,006
You're hinting at someone.

972
01:08:11,180 --> 01:08:13,944
If it's Geoffrey, it's terrible.

973
01:08:14,183 --> 01:08:16,413
I didn't mention his name.

974
01:08:16,786 --> 01:08:19,050
But you knew that he and Robert
hated each other.

975
01:08:19,222 --> 01:08:22,020
I knew that Midford had had his troubles.

976
01:08:22,191 --> 01:08:23,488
You made an accusation.

977
01:08:23,659 --> 01:08:26,287
No, I didn't.
I simply said that it's not unbelievable...

978
01:08:26,462 --> 01:08:30,489
...to suppose that someone who hated
or feared or envied your husband...

979
01:08:30,666 --> 01:08:33,863
...might have given that cloudburst
a helping hand, that's all.

980
01:08:34,037 --> 01:08:37,871
You asked me to be honest with you,
to tell you what I believe and what I think.

981
01:08:38,041 --> 01:08:40,168
I tell you I don't like it.

982
01:08:42,011 --> 01:08:45,572
I've come across barriers. If I tear them
down, I don't know what might happen.

983
01:08:45,748 --> 01:08:47,409
To whom?

984
01:08:48,518 --> 01:08:50,145
To you.

985
01:08:52,388 --> 01:08:54,515
What do you want of me?

986
01:08:54,690 --> 01:08:56,681
Your trust.

987
01:08:57,693 --> 01:08:59,718
I did trust you.

988
01:08:59,896 --> 01:09:03,423
Even in this short time,
I'd come to think of you as a friend.

989
01:09:03,599 --> 01:09:05,362
His friend.

990
01:09:05,535 --> 01:09:09,665
I thought we were working together
so that he could go on living...

991
01:09:09,839 --> 01:09:12,865
...long after you and I were forgotten.

992
01:09:15,378 --> 01:09:17,573
That's what you offered me.

993
01:09:18,081 --> 01:09:19,309
What's gone wrong?

994
01:09:20,783 --> 01:09:22,045
That's what I'm asking you.

995
01:09:42,705 --> 01:09:45,105
Isn't that his mother's house?

996
01:09:45,475 --> 01:09:47,204
Yes.

997
01:09:51,080 --> 01:09:53,742
The storm won't hold off much longer.

998
01:09:53,916 --> 01:09:56,646
I'd like you to take me up there.
I'd like to meet her.

999
01:09:56,819 --> 01:09:58,878
I'm going this way.

1000
01:10:29,619 --> 01:10:30,881
I wish to see Mrs. Forrest.

1001
01:10:31,053 --> 01:10:32,680
- You wish to see Mrs. Forrest?
- Yes.

1002
01:10:32,855 --> 01:10:33,981
She's resting.

1003
01:10:34,157 --> 01:10:35,886
Uh, you've come to the wrong house.

1004
01:10:36,058 --> 01:10:39,118
You know, Mrs. Robert Forrest lives
three or four miles from here.

1005
01:10:39,295 --> 01:10:40,592
Yes, I just came from there.

1006
01:10:40,763 --> 01:10:43,254
- Mrs. Forrest sent for you?
- Well, in a way, yes.

1007
01:10:43,432 --> 01:10:47,368
Well, there's some mistake, sir.
I'll speak to the housekeeper.

1008
01:10:54,977 --> 01:10:58,378
Come in quickly
or they'll tell you I'm resting.

1009
01:11:04,887 --> 01:11:08,414
Close the door, please. There's a draft.

1010
01:11:08,991 --> 01:11:13,428
I hope you'll excuse
my not remembering your name.

1011
01:11:13,596 --> 01:11:14,893
Steven O'Malley.

1012
01:11:15,064 --> 01:11:17,965
- Mrs. Forrest, you shouldn't be...
- That's enough, Mrs. Taylor.

1013
01:11:18,134 --> 01:11:20,659
Mr. O'Malley has come to call on me.

1014
01:11:20,836 --> 01:11:23,737
- But, Mrs. Forrest, you shouldn't...
- I'll ring when I want you.

1015
01:11:23,906 --> 01:11:26,534
- But, Mrs. Forrest...
- You understand me?

1016
01:11:26,909 --> 01:11:29,070
Yes, Mrs. Forrest.

1017
01:11:32,448 --> 01:11:34,416
Poor Mrs. Taylor.

1018
01:11:34,584 --> 01:11:38,611
She doesn't remember sometimes
that she's only a servant.

1019
01:11:38,788 --> 01:11:41,052
- Please, Mr. O'Malley.
- Thank you.

1020
01:11:41,224 --> 01:11:44,489
Oh. Oh, thank you.

1021
01:11:46,095 --> 01:11:49,155
You're... You're one of Robert's friends?

1022
01:11:49,332 --> 01:11:51,232
I'm one of his greatest admirers.

1023
01:11:51,400 --> 01:11:52,424
How nice.

1024
01:11:53,970 --> 01:11:56,495
- Robert's dead, you know.
- Yes. Yes, I know.

1025
01:12:02,144 --> 01:12:05,875
We've had quite a bit of rain lately,
haven't we?

1026
01:12:06,382 --> 01:12:07,974
Yes.

1027
01:12:08,150 --> 01:12:11,085
I understand there was quite a cloudburst
the night of the...

1028
01:12:11,254 --> 01:12:12,448
Uh, the other night.

1029
01:12:13,456 --> 01:12:15,481
The other night?

1030
01:12:15,958 --> 01:12:19,257
Oh, yes. Yes, you mean the night
Robert was murdered?

1031
01:12:20,930 --> 01:12:25,264
Are you one
of Robert's business associates?

1032
01:12:26,202 --> 01:12:28,397
Uh, no, no. I'm a writer.

1033
01:12:29,438 --> 01:12:31,269
A writer?

1034
01:12:32,174 --> 01:12:34,438
How interesting.

1035
01:12:34,977 --> 01:12:36,308
Do you write plays?

1036
01:12:36,746 --> 01:12:40,238
Well, I have written a couple, yes.
They weren't very successful.

1037
01:12:40,416 --> 01:12:43,249
You must write a play about my son.

1038
01:12:44,253 --> 01:12:48,053
I want someone to write a play
about my son...

1039
01:12:48,224 --> 01:12:50,988
...and tell the truth about his death.

1040
01:12:52,628 --> 01:12:54,528
I'll help you.

1041
01:12:55,598 --> 01:12:58,089
Well, thank you. That's very nice of you.

1042
01:12:58,267 --> 01:13:00,531
I'll go now, Mrs. Forrest.
Sorry I disturbed you.

1043
01:13:00,703 --> 01:13:04,639
Oh, no. No, please don't go. I like you.

1044
01:13:05,441 --> 01:13:06,703
Where's Robert?

1045
01:13:10,146 --> 01:13:11,511
Come in, my dear.

1046
01:13:13,449 --> 01:13:15,474
We'll leave now, Mrs. Forrest. Come on.

1047
01:13:15,651 --> 01:13:18,142
This was your idea.
Stay and satisfy yourself.

1048
01:13:18,321 --> 01:13:20,585
Mr. O'Malley is a writer.

1049
01:13:20,756 --> 01:13:24,351
I don't suppose he told you
that he writes for newspapers.

1050
01:13:24,527 --> 01:13:28,657
We're going to write a play together.
Aren't we, Mr. O'Malley?

1051
01:13:28,831 --> 01:13:30,822
Did he tell you that?

1052
01:13:31,133 --> 01:13:35,001
Robert always said
you were a very good actress.

1053
01:13:35,237 --> 01:13:38,172
Perhaps we could get her to act
in our play.

1054
01:13:38,341 --> 01:13:40,741
We can talk about that later, Mrs. Forrest.
Come on.

1055
01:13:40,910 --> 01:13:43,344
Oh, no. No, don't go.

1056
01:13:43,512 --> 01:13:46,709
I so seldom get to see anyone.

1057
01:13:46,882 --> 01:13:52,081
Christine doesn't want me
to see anyone, do you?

1058
01:13:52,922 --> 01:13:56,915
Perhaps we could come back
and see you some other time, Mrs. Forrest.

1059
01:13:57,093 --> 01:13:59,527
Are you married, young man?

1060
01:13:59,695 --> 01:14:01,822
Robert oughtn't to have married either.

1061
01:14:01,997 --> 01:14:03,760
I warned him.

1062
01:14:03,933 --> 01:14:06,629
"She'll pull you down," I said.

1063
01:14:07,703 --> 01:14:10,228
Tell my son I want to see him.

1064
01:14:11,407 --> 01:14:13,602
Robert's gone away on a long trip.

1065
01:14:13,776 --> 01:14:16,006
Why didn't you let him say goodbye to me?

1066
01:14:16,178 --> 01:14:18,772
He always said goodbye to me.

1067
01:14:18,948 --> 01:14:23,908
He'd kiss me and say,
"I'm going to find new worlds, Mother. "

1068
01:14:24,086 --> 01:14:26,611
I knew what that meant.

1069
01:14:26,789 --> 01:14:29,155
He was like another great man...

1070
01:14:29,325 --> 01:14:31,919
...Alexander, he called him.

1071
01:14:32,094 --> 01:14:33,561
You're his sort.

1072
01:14:33,729 --> 01:14:38,189
You wouldn't let silly women's notions
get in your way.

1073
01:14:42,438 --> 01:14:45,965
Most women spoil your life,
pull you down.

1074
01:14:46,142 --> 01:14:47,734
That's what I always told my son.

1075
01:14:47,910 --> 01:14:50,435
Mr. O'Malley is a stranger.
He doesn't understand.

1076
01:14:50,613 --> 01:14:51,978
He ought to know the truth...

1077
01:14:52,148 --> 01:14:55,845
...what my son had to fight,
even in his own home.

1078
01:14:56,652 --> 01:14:58,984
I like you, young man.

1079
01:14:59,155 --> 01:15:02,852
You're not the sniveling,
whining, puppy type...

1080
01:15:03,025 --> 01:15:08,258
...like that Midford
that used to cling to Christine's skirts.

1081
01:15:08,431 --> 01:15:10,160
Robert hated him too.

1082
01:15:15,905 --> 01:15:18,237
Yes, Robert.

1083
01:15:22,545 --> 01:15:24,877
I want Robert. I want my son.

1084
01:15:25,047 --> 01:15:27,277
Please try to understand.
He's gone away for a long time.

1085
01:15:32,421 --> 01:15:33,547
That's Robert.

1086
01:15:33,722 --> 01:15:36,816
Setting out for new worlds to conquer.

1087
01:15:36,992 --> 01:15:38,983
Mrs. Forrest,
let me help you to your chair.

1088
01:15:39,161 --> 01:15:42,790
I was a cook, and I had a son.

1089
01:15:43,799 --> 01:15:49,101
Now I've got a bigger house
than the people I used to cook for.

1090
01:15:49,271 --> 01:15:52,638
That's what my son did for me.

1091
01:15:52,808 --> 01:15:55,743
Big people have big houses...

1092
01:15:55,911 --> 01:15:59,176
...and little people work for them.

1093
01:16:02,818 --> 01:16:05,685
Yes, Robert, I'm listening.

1094
01:16:05,855 --> 01:16:09,552
I was listening the other afternoon,
but she had the telephone.

1095
01:16:10,125 --> 01:16:12,116
Why didn't she warn you, Robert?

1096
01:16:12,294 --> 01:16:13,454
That's not true.

1097
01:16:13,629 --> 01:16:15,221
Somebody warned her.

1098
01:16:15,598 --> 01:16:18,965
Even through the thunder,
I heard them say:

1099
01:16:19,134 --> 01:16:22,160
"Tell Mr. Forrest the bridge is down. "

1100
01:16:22,338 --> 01:16:24,329
But she didn't tell him.

1101
01:16:24,507 --> 01:16:26,941
- She didn't tell him.
- I left before the storm broke.

1102
01:16:27,109 --> 01:16:30,442
You or Mrs. Taylor must have taken
the message. Anyhow, it was too late.

1103
01:16:30,613 --> 01:16:31,978
Was it too late...

1104
01:16:32,147 --> 01:16:35,674
...if you'd driven back
the way you always went, over the bridge?

1105
01:16:35,851 --> 01:16:36,977
I couldn't. My horse bolted.

1106
01:16:39,488 --> 01:16:43,515
Men like Robert aren't killed by accident.

1107
01:16:43,692 --> 01:16:45,853
They're stabbed in the back.

1108
01:16:49,164 --> 01:16:51,530
Where are you, Robert?

1109
01:16:52,535 --> 01:16:55,129
I want... I want my...

1110
01:16:55,604 --> 01:16:57,697
I want my son.

1111
01:16:57,873 --> 01:16:58,965
See what you've done?

1112
01:17:00,342 --> 01:17:01,707
I want my son.

1113
01:17:01,877 --> 01:17:08,441
I want my... I want my son. My son.

1114
01:17:12,321 --> 01:17:15,654
Will it please your readers to know
that Robert's mother hated his wife?

1115
01:17:15,824 --> 01:17:18,315
You can add an insane mother
to your story. Satisfied?

1116
01:17:18,494 --> 01:17:22,260
No. In our profession, we cherish
a rather absurd ambition.

1117
01:17:22,431 --> 01:17:25,298
- We like to tell the truth.
- No price is too high for a story.

1118
01:17:25,467 --> 01:17:27,799
I owe that to people
who read the stuff I write.

1119
01:17:27,970 --> 01:17:30,200
But if what you told them
broke their hearts?

1120
01:17:30,372 --> 01:17:34,399
I can't be the judge of that. I know my job.
I know I've made a mess of it here...

1121
01:17:34,577 --> 01:17:36,442
...not getting what I came after.

1122
01:17:36,612 --> 01:17:39,080
I'm not so sure now that I want to get it.

1123
01:17:39,248 --> 01:17:40,840
So I'm quitting.

1124
01:17:41,016 --> 01:17:45,316
Somebody who doesn't give a hang
about the truth or you will take over.

1125
01:17:45,487 --> 01:17:47,421
But there's no one whom I could tolerate.

1126
01:17:47,590 --> 01:17:51,458
- Yet all the time, you've tried to mislead me.
- I've tried to give you what you wanted.

1127
01:17:51,627 --> 01:17:53,652
I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't believe that.

1128
01:17:53,829 --> 01:17:58,061
That means I can't believe anything
anymore, my senses or my judgment.

1129
01:17:59,902 --> 01:18:04,430
At least we don't need to hurt each other
any more than we've done already.

1130
01:18:04,974 --> 01:18:08,068
If you don't mind, I'll ride home alone.

1131
01:18:38,540 --> 01:18:39,666
Hi, O'Malley.

1132
01:18:49,551 --> 01:18:51,212
How did you get in here?

1133
01:18:51,387 --> 01:18:53,116
Influence.

1134
01:18:54,256 --> 01:18:56,156
Looking for something?

1135
01:18:56,325 --> 01:18:58,452
No, just a hunch.

1136
01:18:59,395 --> 01:19:01,522
That's wonderful, Freddie.

1137
01:19:01,897 --> 01:19:04,730
- What is it?
- It's the bridge.

1138
01:19:04,900 --> 01:19:06,299
What bridge? Where?

1139
01:19:06,468 --> 01:19:08,959
Oh. Oh, this bridge, huh?

1140
01:19:10,139 --> 01:19:13,472
The question is, was it due
for a crack-up, or not?

1141
01:19:13,642 --> 01:19:14,734
Bah.

1142
01:19:14,910 --> 01:19:17,970
Don't be silly, Freddie.
You're wasting your time.

1143
01:19:18,147 --> 01:19:20,547
This is not your speed.

1144
01:19:21,684 --> 01:19:25,711
You're not saying that because I might be
getting close to where the body is buried?

1145
01:19:27,256 --> 01:19:30,157
The body is buried just where it should be,
in a hero's grave.

1146
01:19:30,325 --> 01:19:32,054
Why don't you let it rest in peace?

1147
01:19:32,528 --> 01:19:34,723
Are you speaking for yourself?

1148
01:19:35,364 --> 01:19:39,027
Yes, or for anyone else
who might be just looking for a good story.

1149
01:19:39,702 --> 01:19:41,727
That sounds pretty dull.

1150
01:19:42,104 --> 01:19:46,234
Maybe there's a story in a simple,
honest, clean, home-loving millionairess.

1151
01:19:47,843 --> 01:19:50,311
What about the hero's wife?

1152
01:19:53,315 --> 01:19:56,307
Well, why don't you leave her
in peace too...

1153
01:19:56,485 --> 01:19:58,783
...if her memories will?

1154
01:20:21,376 --> 01:20:22,741
Mrs. Forrest?
- Yes.

1155
01:20:22,911 --> 01:20:24,811
I'd like a word with you, please.

1156
01:20:26,515 --> 01:20:28,415
- What is it?
- I don't like it.

1157
01:20:28,584 --> 01:20:30,279
The look on Mr. O'Malley's face.

1158
01:20:30,452 --> 01:20:32,147
- Time for action.
- I've taken action.

1159
01:20:32,321 --> 01:20:34,255
- What?
- Don't raise your voice. I'm managing this.

1160
01:20:34,423 --> 01:20:36,118
It's too important to be managed
by a woman.

1161
01:20:36,291 --> 01:20:38,987
If it had been managed by a woman,
this wouldn't have happened.

1162
01:20:39,161 --> 01:20:42,028
You're quite right.
I have one request I'd like to make.

1163
01:20:42,197 --> 01:20:44,665
I'd like the keys
to Mr. Forrest's filing cabinets.

1164
01:20:44,833 --> 01:20:45,857
No.

1165
01:20:46,034 --> 01:20:48,434
There may be some things
you should've destroyed that remain.

1166
01:20:49,805 --> 01:20:52,330
Mrs. Forrest.
- You know I only wish to help.

1167
01:20:52,508 --> 01:20:54,908
Just a minute.
- You must let nothing prevent us...

1168
01:20:55,077 --> 01:20:57,910
...from preserving the memory
of the great man who's gone.

1169
01:20:58,080 --> 01:21:01,811
Who was and is the bright flame
in so many lives.

1170
01:21:07,689 --> 01:21:10,021
Come in, Mr. O'Malley.

1171
01:21:20,235 --> 01:21:23,329
I'll call you if I need you, Mr. Kerndon.

1172
01:21:27,509 --> 01:21:29,704
Does Kerndon know?

1173
01:21:30,579 --> 01:21:32,240
Know what?

1174
01:21:33,148 --> 01:21:35,548
That you killed your husband?

1175
01:21:51,400 --> 01:21:52,890
You found it under the bridge.

1176
01:21:53,068 --> 01:21:55,229
The night of the tragedy
you came the shortcut.

1177
01:21:55,404 --> 01:21:57,133
You saw the bridge was out.

1178
01:21:57,306 --> 01:21:59,672
That's where Diana cast the shoe.

1179
01:21:59,842 --> 01:22:02,436
You could've warned him, but you didn't.

1180
01:22:02,678 --> 01:22:04,305
You killed him.

1181
01:22:10,085 --> 01:22:12,553
How else can I say it?

1182
01:22:14,289 --> 01:22:16,189
No other way.

1183
01:22:16,592 --> 01:22:18,924
I say it myself.

1184
01:22:19,795 --> 01:22:22,525
I say it over and over again at night.

1185
01:22:22,698 --> 01:22:25,098
I lie in bed and say it.

1186
01:22:25,367 --> 01:22:27,460
- But you don't know.
- What don't I know?

1187
01:22:27,636 --> 01:22:28,967
I warned him.

1188
01:22:29,137 --> 01:22:31,264
- You mean he committed suicide?
- No.

1189
01:22:31,440 --> 01:22:34,341
- You warned him that the bridge was out?
- It wasn't out, quite.

1190
01:22:34,509 --> 01:22:36,101
- Quite, but enough.
- I suppose so.

1191
01:22:36,278 --> 01:22:40,044
- And you warned him about it?
- I said, "Robert, don't go.

1192
01:22:40,215 --> 01:22:41,341
It means disaster. "

1193
01:22:41,516 --> 01:22:43,882
- Meaning the bridge?
- No.

1194
01:22:44,052 --> 01:22:46,282
- Well, what? What? Where was he going?
- East.

1195
01:22:46,455 --> 01:22:48,355
- Kerndon have anything to do with it?
- No.

1196
01:22:48,523 --> 01:22:49,581
- He's not in on it?
- No.

1197
01:22:49,758 --> 01:22:51,487
- Just you and Geoffrey Midford.
- Geoffrey?

1198
01:22:51,660 --> 01:22:54,128
- Don't lie about it. You and Midford.
- No, no.

1199
01:22:54,296 --> 01:22:56,127
- You bought up the farm for him?
- Yes.

1200
01:22:56,298 --> 01:22:58,232
- Your husband threw him out, didn't he?
- Yes.

1201
01:22:58,400 --> 01:23:02,234
And when he left you alone here with
Midford, that was the disaster, wasn't it?

1202
01:23:02,404 --> 01:23:04,998
Geoffrey knows nothing about it.

1203
01:23:06,675 --> 01:23:08,666
You did it alone.

1204
01:23:15,984 --> 01:23:18,350
What a sweet story.

1205
01:23:19,888 --> 01:23:23,551
The real story of a great American hero.

1206
01:23:25,127 --> 01:23:27,925
Whatever has happened
doesn't reflect on him.

1207
01:23:28,096 --> 01:23:31,065
- He's still a hero.
- That's right.

1208
01:23:32,167 --> 01:23:35,694
And I must still write the story
and tell the truth.

1209
01:23:39,608 --> 01:23:41,235
Why?

1210
01:23:42,210 --> 01:23:44,678
Just tell me why.

1211
01:24:08,603 --> 01:24:10,901
I warned you. What do you think he'll do?

1212
01:24:11,073 --> 01:24:12,938
- He'll do what is right.
- Tell the world.

1213
01:24:13,108 --> 01:24:15,838
- That will only reflect on me.
- The police will be here.

1214
01:24:16,011 --> 01:24:17,979
They'll pry, probe. They'll want to know.

1215
01:24:18,146 --> 01:24:20,410
Give me the keys
so I can destroy everything.

1216
01:24:20,582 --> 01:24:21,947
No.

1217
01:24:24,886 --> 01:24:26,945
Then you should go and do it yourself.

1218
01:24:28,290 --> 01:24:29,757
Now.

1219
01:24:50,912 --> 01:24:51,970
Jeb.

1220
01:24:52,147 --> 01:24:53,808
Jeb.

1221
01:24:53,982 --> 01:24:55,973
Oh, Jeb.

1222
01:25:01,723 --> 01:25:04,191
Well, hello, Mr. O'Malley.

1223
01:25:05,761 --> 01:25:07,820
- Put those bags down.
- What's the matter?

1224
01:25:07,996 --> 01:25:10,157
- Put the bags down.
- Oh, Geoff. Geoff.

1225
01:25:10,332 --> 01:25:12,425
- Do you mind getting out of here?
- Yes, I do.

1226
01:25:12,601 --> 01:25:14,000
Take it easy, Janet.

1227
01:25:14,169 --> 01:25:17,866
This is the important gentleman
Christine's been telling you so much about.

1228
01:25:18,040 --> 01:25:20,406
- Not Steven O'Malley.
- Yes, the one and only.

1229
01:25:20,575 --> 01:25:23,476
- Well, what's he got against you?
- Plenty.

1230
01:25:23,645 --> 01:25:25,579
However, let's forget about it.

1231
01:25:25,747 --> 01:25:28,807
I don't wanna fight anybody today.
I'm much too happy.

1232
01:25:28,984 --> 01:25:30,645
This is Jeb's sister, Janet...

1233
01:25:30,819 --> 01:25:34,687
...who'll probably keep me in better order
after we're married.

1234
01:25:34,856 --> 01:25:36,448
After you're married?

1235
01:25:36,625 --> 01:25:37,990
You...

1236
01:25:40,328 --> 01:25:42,353
- Congratulations.
Hello there.

1237
01:25:42,864 --> 01:25:44,388
Janet.

1238
01:25:44,699 --> 01:25:46,223
Let me look at you.

1239
01:25:46,401 --> 01:25:49,165
Well, you're as bright
as a new silver dollar.

1240
01:25:49,337 --> 01:25:52,329
Thanks, Geoff.
Thanks for bringing her back to us.

1241
01:25:55,010 --> 01:25:57,843
They've loved each other
ever since they were kids.

1242
01:25:58,280 --> 01:25:59,406
They were to be married.

1243
01:25:59,581 --> 01:26:01,981
Then Janet got a job
as Mr. Forrest's secretary.

1244
01:26:02,150 --> 01:26:04,948
After that she seemed to forget
Midford was around anymore.

1245
01:26:05,120 --> 01:26:07,111
Hero worship, same as Jeb.

1246
01:26:07,656 --> 01:26:09,920
So Midford started crooking his elbow
too often...

1247
01:26:10,092 --> 01:26:12,322
...and Janet cracked up altogether.

1248
01:26:12,494 --> 01:26:14,860
Do you blame me for hating Forrest?

1249
01:26:15,330 --> 01:26:18,766
- Mrs. Forrest got her into a sanitarium...
- Is that where Mrs. Forrest's been...

1250
01:26:18,934 --> 01:26:20,060
...the last three days?

1251
01:26:20,235 --> 01:26:22,465
Yes, at the sanitarium with Geoffrey.

1252
01:26:22,637 --> 01:26:26,903
- Now they're to be married.
- Tell him I'm gonna use his car for a minute.

1253
01:26:39,154 --> 01:26:42,681
- Mr. O'Malley, I thought you'd gone.
- Where's Mrs. Forrest? Where is she?

1254
01:26:42,858 --> 01:26:46,521
I just walked with her to the arsenal.
It's just there through the trees.

1255
01:27:01,009 --> 01:27:02,909
- Whom are you shielding?
- I'm not.

1256
01:27:03,078 --> 01:27:06,639
- Lf I were, I shouldn't betray them.
- You're brave, and tough too, aren't you?

1257
01:27:06,815 --> 01:27:09,045
You were ready to let me go away
believing you guilty.

1258
01:27:09,217 --> 01:27:10,980
- I want you to go.
- I'm gonna get the truth...

1259
01:27:11,153 --> 01:27:12,677
...if I have to tear this place down...

1260
01:27:12,854 --> 01:27:15,379
...and if I have to tear him down with it.
- No, you shan't!

1261
01:27:15,557 --> 01:27:18,355
Somebody else will do it if I don't.
You're in a jam.

1262
01:27:18,527 --> 01:27:20,620
I want to help you. I can help you.

1263
01:27:20,795 --> 01:27:22,854
What you've done is terrible,
but you're not.

1264
01:27:23,031 --> 01:27:24,430
Yes, I am.

1265
01:27:24,599 --> 01:27:27,534
Even if you are,
it's too late for me to stop now.

1266
01:27:27,702 --> 01:27:30,398
If it had been just you and Midford,
I could've understood.

1267
01:27:30,572 --> 01:27:32,733
That would've been love.
I understand love now.

1268
01:27:32,908 --> 01:27:35,968
I can understand what it does to a man,
to a woman.

1269
01:27:36,144 --> 01:27:39,511
I don't even care
why you wanted to get rid of Forrest.

1270
01:27:39,714 --> 01:27:42,376
I only care
that you won't let me help you.

1271
01:27:45,687 --> 01:27:46,813
No.

1272
01:27:47,189 --> 01:27:48,850
But you are in trouble, aren't you?

1273
01:27:51,693 --> 01:27:53,490
Yes, I'm in trouble.

1274
01:27:53,662 --> 01:27:55,892
You need me, don't you?

1275
01:27:57,098 --> 01:27:58,395
Yes, I need you.

1276
01:27:59,034 --> 01:28:00,433
Well, then what is it?

1277
01:28:00,602 --> 01:28:02,729
Tell me, what is it?

1278
01:28:03,672 --> 01:28:06,505
But you. You're in trouble too.

1279
01:28:06,675 --> 01:28:08,836
Don't worry about me.

1280
01:28:09,611 --> 01:28:12,205
Someone you believed in,
you aren't going to anymore.

1281
01:28:12,380 --> 01:28:15,110
I can believe in you so much
that you can't help yourself.

1282
01:28:15,283 --> 01:28:17,513
You must be what I believe you are.

1283
01:28:32,867 --> 01:28:38,703
I've been wanting to talk to you
since that first night you came.

1284
01:28:40,008 --> 01:28:42,977
I can't fight you off any longer.

1285
01:28:44,846 --> 01:28:48,907
I married a legend.

1286
01:28:49,217 --> 01:28:51,651
A legend about a hero.

1287
01:28:52,787 --> 01:28:55,381
I didn't know it at first. L...

1288
01:28:56,091 --> 01:28:58,252
I worshipped Robert.

1289
01:28:58,526 --> 01:29:03,259
Perhaps to worship anyone
is to destroy them.

1290
01:29:03,865 --> 01:29:06,163
Everyone worshipped him.

1291
01:29:06,568 --> 01:29:09,036
No, no. The, uh...

1292
01:29:09,938 --> 01:29:11,929
The image of him.

1293
01:29:12,540 --> 01:29:17,500
The image that had been carefully built up
in people's minds.

1294
01:29:17,679 --> 01:29:21,740
Deliberately built up, I now believe.
Built up with a terrible purpose.

1295
01:29:21,916 --> 01:29:27,047
When I discovered what that purpose was,
I had to destroy the image.

1296
01:29:28,056 --> 01:29:29,887
No, I...

1297
01:29:30,125 --> 01:29:34,824
I had to destroy the man...

1298
01:29:35,463 --> 01:29:37,897
...to save the image.

1299
01:29:38,099 --> 01:29:39,930
Yes, that was it.

1300
01:29:40,869 --> 01:29:42,598
What terrible purpose?

1301
01:29:43,305 --> 01:29:46,706
Oh, I didn't know it was terrible once.

1302
01:29:46,875 --> 01:29:48,206
You...

1303
01:29:48,643 --> 01:29:52,602
- You heard his mother this afternoon.
- His mother's insane.

1304
01:29:52,781 --> 01:29:54,214
But Robert wasn't.

1305
01:29:55,216 --> 01:29:58,652
He grew to despise the people
that worshipped him, all of us.

1306
01:29:58,820 --> 01:29:59,980
Me too.

1307
01:30:00,155 --> 01:30:01,884
He felt that we were all beneath him.

1308
01:30:02,057 --> 01:30:07,051
I didn't know what had happened. I suppose
that I was a bit like that myself once.

1309
01:30:07,228 --> 01:30:12,825
I believed in a few people,
leaders, rulers.

1310
01:30:13,001 --> 01:30:17,097
But when Robert began to change, I...

1311
01:30:18,006 --> 01:30:23,740
I saw the face of fascism
in my own home.

1312
01:30:23,912 --> 01:30:27,143
Hatred, arrogance, cruelty.

1313
01:30:27,449 --> 01:30:30,316
I saw what German women were facing.

1314
01:30:30,485 --> 01:30:32,316
I saw the enemy.

1315
01:30:32,487 --> 01:30:34,421
Robert Forrest.

1316
01:30:34,589 --> 01:30:40,323
The morning of the accident,
I stole his keys, came here and opened this.

1317
01:30:41,029 --> 01:30:42,758
This is what I found.

1318
01:30:42,931 --> 01:30:47,095
The key
to Robert Forrest's fascist organization.

1319
01:30:47,268 --> 01:30:51,568
They didn't call it fascism. Painted it red,
white and blue, and called it Americanism.

1320
01:30:51,740 --> 01:30:53,901
In here are the funds to see it through.

1321
01:30:54,075 --> 01:30:57,044
Fantastic amounts subscribed
by a few private individuals...

1322
01:30:57,212 --> 01:31:00,306
...to whom money didn't mean anything
but wanted political power.

1323
01:31:00,482 --> 01:31:02,814
Knew they could never get it
by democratic means.

1324
01:31:02,984 --> 01:31:05,509
There's a list of their names.

1325
01:31:06,654 --> 01:31:10,385
This was the essence of their plan.

1326
01:31:10,558 --> 01:31:13,083
Here are some articles ready for release...

1327
01:31:13,261 --> 01:31:16,788
...to stir up all the little hatreds
of the whole nation against each other.

1328
01:31:16,965 --> 01:31:21,163
This was an article to be published
in an anti-Semitic paper attacking the Jews.

1329
01:31:21,336 --> 01:31:24,931
<i>This was to be used in Farmers Gazette
to stir them up against city dwellers.</i>

1330
01:31:25,106 --> 01:31:30,510
Here's one attacking the Catholics,
anti-Negro, anti-labor, anti-trade union...

1331
01:31:30,678 --> 01:31:32,612
...subtle appeal to the Ku Klux Klan.

1332
01:31:32,781 --> 01:31:38,276
Here's a list of newspaper editors
who either sought to occupy public office...

1333
01:31:38,453 --> 01:31:41,081
...or sought to dictate
who should occupy public office...

1334
01:31:41,256 --> 01:31:45,659
...and when they failed, felt that the public
was a great, stupid beast.

1335
01:31:45,827 --> 01:31:48,887
Here's a list of men
who served their country in the last war...

1336
01:31:49,063 --> 01:31:52,123
...and were failures in business,
and longed for power of rank...

1337
01:31:52,300 --> 01:31:54,768
...and the prestige of a uniform.

1338
01:31:54,936 --> 01:31:57,530
In there are the names and addresses
of the men...

1339
01:31:57,705 --> 01:32:00,799
...who were designated
to be America's first storm troopers.

1340
01:32:00,975 --> 01:32:06,072
But what was really shocking to me
was the complete cynicism of the plan.

1341
01:32:06,247 --> 01:32:10,775
Each of these groups was simply to be
used until its usefulness was exhausted.

1342
01:32:10,952 --> 01:32:13,011
Hates were to be played against hates.

1343
01:32:13,288 --> 01:32:17,247
If one group threatened to get too powerful,
it would be killed off by another group.

1344
01:32:17,525 --> 01:32:20,961
And in the end, all these poor little people
who never knew...

1345
01:32:21,129 --> 01:32:24,792
...to what purpose they were lending
themselves would be in the same chains...

1346
01:32:24,966 --> 01:32:26,797
...cowed and enslaved...

1347
01:32:26,968 --> 01:32:30,199
...with Robert Forrest and his handful
of power-thirsty henchmen...

1348
01:32:30,371 --> 01:32:31,929
...cracking the whip.

1349
01:32:32,674 --> 01:32:34,972
Robert Forrest.

1350
01:32:36,978 --> 01:32:38,809
What happened to him?

1351
01:32:40,582 --> 01:32:42,607
He changed.

1352
01:32:42,784 --> 01:32:47,619
When I first married him, he was as much
a part of this country as Lincoln himself.

1353
01:32:47,789 --> 01:32:49,757
And I love our country.

1354
01:32:49,924 --> 01:32:52,392
Always when I came back from Europe...

1355
01:32:52,560 --> 01:32:56,360
...I felt what it meant
to live in the land of the free.

1356
01:32:56,531 --> 01:33:01,059
When I married Robert,
I felt that I was stepping into its history.

1357
01:33:02,937 --> 01:33:09,069
He was brave and noble and immortal,
and I was so proud.

1358
01:33:09,544 --> 01:33:11,910
But he changed, I tell you.

1359
01:33:12,413 --> 01:33:14,847
Not all at once, but gradually.

1360
01:33:15,016 --> 01:33:17,246
Couldn't have been because he was bitter
or disappointed.

1361
01:33:17,418 --> 01:33:19,386
His life had been only triumph.

1362
01:33:19,554 --> 01:33:23,251
The tears could still come into his eyes
and the catch in his wonderful voice...

1363
01:33:23,424 --> 01:33:25,415
...when he spoke to the people.

1364
01:33:25,994 --> 01:33:27,723
Perhaps he loved the people.

1365
01:33:27,896 --> 01:33:29,454
Perhaps he loved them...

1366
01:33:29,631 --> 01:33:32,361
...but didn't trust them
to think for themselves.

1367
01:33:32,534 --> 01:33:36,095
Or perhaps he was insatiable...

1368
01:33:36,271 --> 01:33:40,674
...and wanted even more power
to add to his glory. I don't know.

1369
01:33:40,909 --> 01:33:43,810
But he envied the dictators
and thought that all governments...

1370
01:33:43,978 --> 01:33:47,243
...of the people and by the people
were soon to perish from the Earth.

1371
01:33:49,217 --> 01:33:50,707
Robert Forrest.

1372
01:33:52,921 --> 01:33:58,325
And as he changed,
my love changed too.

1373
01:33:59,327 --> 01:34:03,593
I remember the first day I looked at his face
and trembled with fear...

1374
01:34:03,765 --> 01:34:06,893
...at the change that I saw in that face.

1375
01:34:07,302 --> 01:34:10,601
Hatred, arrogance, cruelty.

1376
01:34:11,072 --> 01:34:15,907
The face of a man who no longer believed
in God, but only in himself.

1377
01:34:17,645 --> 01:34:20,910
And he held me in his arms...

1378
01:34:21,082 --> 01:34:26,213
...and I knew that it was no longer a wife
that he wanted but sons.

1379
01:34:26,387 --> 01:34:29,151
And his eyes told me
that I was a poor creature...

1380
01:34:29,324 --> 01:34:30,985
...who couldn't give him sons.

1381
01:34:33,528 --> 01:34:36,554
Then my fear changed to pity.

1382
01:34:36,731 --> 01:34:43,295
I thought that he was going like his mother,
that it was madness.

1383
01:34:43,771 --> 01:34:46,706
The things he'd think of,
the ideas he'd play with...

1384
01:34:46,874 --> 01:34:50,970
...his frank contempt of democracy,
his incredible ambition.

1385
01:34:51,279 --> 01:34:53,270
But he wasn't mad.

1386
01:34:53,448 --> 01:34:55,416
He wasn't mad.

1387
01:34:55,583 --> 01:34:59,212
I was more in danger
from my own thoughts than he.

1388
01:34:59,754 --> 01:35:02,882
The morning of the accident,
I stole his keys...

1389
01:35:03,057 --> 01:35:04,786
...came here and opened the cabinet.

1390
01:35:04,959 --> 01:35:09,055
Then I knew that Robert Forrest was lost,
that he was a traitor to his country.

1391
01:35:09,230 --> 01:35:12,324
I didn't know what to do.
I went out riding to be alone, to think.

1392
01:35:12,500 --> 01:35:13,899
I rode all afternoon.

1393
01:35:14,068 --> 01:35:17,595
The cloudburst came,
I took refuge in the mother's house.

1394
01:35:17,939 --> 01:35:20,169
I got the telephone message.

1395
01:35:20,341 --> 01:35:22,309
I knew the bridge was out. I saw it.

1396
01:35:22,477 --> 01:35:24,945
I came back that way
after the cloudburst.

1397
01:35:25,113 --> 01:35:27,980
Suddenly, it was clear to me.
I knew something had to be done.

1398
01:35:28,149 --> 01:35:31,118
Their moment had come.
Saboteurs were awaiting instructions...

1399
01:35:31,285 --> 01:35:33,446
...and he was on his way to give them.

1400
01:35:34,656 --> 01:35:37,318
I stood looking at the bridge.

1401
01:35:38,593 --> 01:35:41,255
I said to myself quite calmly:

1402
01:35:41,429 --> 01:35:45,695
"He'll come this way and be killed
unless I hurry and warn him. "

1403
01:35:46,668 --> 01:35:49,694
But I didn't warn him
because it came to me...

1404
01:35:49,871 --> 01:35:51,964
...that clean death in the rain...

1405
01:35:52,140 --> 01:35:55,439
...was the best thing that could happen
to Robert Forrest.

1406
01:35:56,344 --> 01:35:58,744
Standing by the bridge, I prayed:

1407
01:35:58,913 --> 01:36:01,905
"Let him be killed that he may not mock
those who have trusted him...

1408
01:36:02,083 --> 01:36:04,950
...and destroy them
as he has destroyed me. "

1409
01:36:06,287 --> 01:36:09,381
Half an hour later
they brought his body home.

1410
01:36:12,593 --> 01:36:14,925
Now he's in your hands.

1411
01:36:22,570 --> 01:36:24,663
Christine,
I want you to do something for me.

1412
01:36:24,839 --> 01:36:27,672
- You want me to give myself up.
- No, no, no.

1413
01:36:27,842 --> 01:36:31,141
I want you to help me
tell the world the truth about him.

1414
01:36:31,846 --> 01:36:35,111
You mean, destroy people's belief
in their hero? Why?

1415
01:36:35,283 --> 01:36:39,117
He wasn't their hero, he was their enemy,
and they must know it.

1416
01:36:39,287 --> 01:36:43,519
They must know what their enemies
over there can do to heroes over here.

1417
01:36:43,691 --> 01:36:45,886
But it will destroy them.

1418
01:36:46,394 --> 01:36:49,124
Christine, people are not children.

1419
01:36:49,297 --> 01:36:53,063
Sometimes they act like children
when you get them scared or confused.

1420
01:36:53,234 --> 01:36:56,260
But down in their hearts
they know they're not afraid.

1421
01:36:56,437 --> 01:36:59,235
They want the truth and they can take it.

1422
01:36:59,774 --> 01:37:03,972
You can't lie to them. I can't lie to them.

1423
01:37:07,048 --> 01:37:08,606
Do what...

1424
01:37:09,917 --> 01:37:12,317
Do what you think is right.

1425
01:37:13,287 --> 01:37:15,084
I trust you.

1426
01:37:16,891 --> 01:37:19,121
I'll do my best to help you.

1427
01:37:31,639 --> 01:37:32,799
The key's on the other side.

1428
01:37:39,714 --> 01:37:41,579
- It doesn't work.
- The wire's been cut.

1429
01:37:41,749 --> 01:37:42,909
- Who did it?
- Kerndon.

1430
01:37:43,084 --> 01:37:45,143
- Is this the only way out?
- Yes.

1431
01:37:57,098 --> 01:37:58,622
Steve!

1432
01:38:11,946 --> 01:38:14,540
Write the story, Steve.

1433
01:38:14,715 --> 01:38:17,149
Tell the truth.

1434
01:38:50,785 --> 01:38:51,979
The lights. Turn them off.
