[HORN HONKS]

EXCUSE THE HORN,

BUT MR. SAM
LIKES TO KNOW
WHEN GUESTS ARRIVE.

THANK YOU.



HA HA! THERE YOU
ARE. THIS IS GREAT,
REALLY GREAT.

LET ME GET A GOOD
LOOK AT THE NEW
BOARD MEMBER.

I'M AFRAID HE
HASN'T CHANGED MUCH.
HOW ARE YOU?

I COULDN'T
BE BETTER.

I'VE REALLY BEEN
LOOKING FORWARD
TO THIS, FELLA.

SO HAVE I.

WE DON'T SEE
EACH OTHER
OFTEN ENOUGH.

WELL, GIVE ME
YOUR THINGS.

ARE THESE ALL BESTSELLERS
YOU'VE DUG UP?

HA HA HA!

THEY BETTER BE.
WE'LL GO OVER THEM
AFTER LUNCH.

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL
HOUSE.

YEAH. IT USED TO BE
THE OLD MAN'S.

CHRISTINE AND I
HAVEN'T DONE MUCH
WITH IT.

Woman: MR. SAM,
I HEARD THE CAR,

AND I WONDERED
IF YOU WANTED--
OH, EXCUSE ME.

MAGGIE, THIS IS
MR. LOGAN.

HOW DO YOU DO?

HOW DO YOU DO?

YOU GO ON
INTO THE LIVING
ROOM, FELLA.

I'LL BE WITH YOU
IN JUST A SECOND.

NOW, WHAT'S
THE TROUBLE, MAGGIE?

I WONDERED WHAT TIME
YOU'D WANT LUNCH.

Sam: WE'LL HAVE LUNCH
IN JUST A FEW MINUTES.

YES.

Sam: I'M ATTACHED
TO THAT DRAWING.

IT WAS MADE 6 YEARS AGO,

JUST BEFORE
WE WERE MARRIED.

SO I KEEP
TELLING MYSELF.

WELL, HERE, YOU
MUST BE FAMISHED.

COME ON.
WE'LL TAKE THESE
INTO THE OTHER ROOM.

WHEN'S
THE FIRST MEETING?

TUESDAY AT 10:00.

THAT WILL GIVE ME
TOMORROW TO SHOW YOU
NEW YORK

AND HAVE YOU MEET
THE OTHER MEN
AT THE OFFICE.

I GATHER
FROM CHARLES' MEMO

THAT YOU--YOU'VE
GOT A LOT TO SAY.

I'M AFRAID
I HAVE.

YOU CAN JUST LEAVE
THAT THERE, MAGGIE.

SHE THINKS I DRINK
TOO MUCH.

WELL, WOULDN'T YOU,
IF YOUR FATHER HAD
A BAD CORONARY

AND YOUR WIFE
HAD WALKED OUT ON YOU?

IF SHE DOESN'T
COME BACK,

I DON'T SEE HOW
I'M GOING TO STAND IT.
I JUST DON'T SEE HOW.

CHRISTINE'S NOT STRONG.
SHE NEVER HAS BEEN.

MAYBE THAT'S ONE
OF THE THINGS ABOUT HER

THAT MAKES ME LOVE HER
THE WAY I DO.

ON OUR HONEYMOON,
ON THE WAY TO GREECE,
YOU REMEMBER,

SHE CAME DOWN
WITH PNEUMONIA.

FOR 3 WEEKS, I DIDN'T
LEAVE HER SIDE.

WHEN I WASN'T WITH HER,
I WASN'T WHOLE.
I WASN'T ANYBODY.

IT'S STILL
LIKE THAT WITH ME.

AT TIMES,
FOR BRIEF MOMENTS,

I THOUGHT IT MIGHT
BE LIKE THAT WITH HER,

BUT MOST OF THE TIME,
SHE'S MILES AWAY
FROM ME.

THAT'S THE WAY IT'S BEEN
THESE LAST MONTHS.

SHE'S MOVED FURTHER
AND FURTHER AWAY.

UNTIL ABOUT 6 WEEKS AGO,
SHE SEEMED TO COME
TO THE END--

TO THE EDGE
OF SOMETHING TERRIBLE,

LIKE AN ANIMAL
IN A TRAP.

WELL, FINALLY,
WHAT COULD I DO
BUT LET HER GO?

SHE HAS AN OLDER SISTER
WHO'S LIVING IN MEXICO.

SHE'S WRITTEN TO SAY
SHE'S ALL RIGHT.

THAT'S ALL.

ISN'T THERE
ANYBODY ELSE WHO
COULD HELP? PARENTS?

HER FATHER'S DEAD.

NEITHER OF US
WOULD ASK HER MOTHER
FOR THE TIME OF DAY.

BOY, IS THAT WOMAN'S
FALLOUT LETHAL.

MURRAY, IF YOU KNEW
HOW GRATEFUL I AM
THAT YOU'RE HERE...

HOW DO YOU DEAL
WITH THIS KIND
OF PAIN?

HOW THE HECK
DO YOU LEARN
TO DEAL WITH IT?

I DON'T KNOW, SAM.
PERHAPS YOU PULL BACK
FROM WHERE IT HURTS MOST.

TRY TO CONCENTRATE
ON SOMETHING ELSE--ON WORK...
WHATEVER COMES ALONG.

THIS LIST OF OURS,
YOU KNOW--

...HASN'T DONE
BADLY FOR US
OVER THE YEARS.

OVER THE YEARS
IS RIGHT.

I'M GLAD SOMEBODY
FINALLY SAID IT.

YES, BUT OUR WRITERS
ARE GETTING OLD, SAM.
THE WORLD IS CHANGING.

WE TOOK A RISK
WITH BELOW THE ANGEL.

WE DIDN'T. YOU
FORCED IT ON US.

TELL HIM
I'M ON MY WAY.

I'M SEEING AUSTIN
AT THE OAK ROOM.

WE'LL MEET
TOMORROW AT 10:00
AND FINISH UP.

WALTER, READ THAT.
SAM'S NOT SURE.

I'M NOT SURE IT'S
FOR THE AMERICAN
MARKET. READ IT.

OK.

SEE YOU ALL AT JIM'S LATER.
YOU GOING TO VISIT DAD?

YES.

TELL HIM I'LL PHONE HIM.

I PROMISED
MY WIFE I'D BE HOME
BEFORE THE BRAWL.

CAN I DROP YOU
AT FREDERICK'S?

IS IT OUT
OF YOUR WAY?

AS A MATTER
OF FACT, IT IS.

MR. BONNER'S
IN THE LIBRARY, SIR,

AT THE HEAD
OF THE STAIRS.

MR. LOGAN?

YES.

MR. BONNER'S
EXPECTING YOU,
BUT YOU MUSTN'T STAY LONG.

Man: COME IN.

HELLO, SIR.

COME IN, MURRAY.

IT'S KIND OF YOU
TO COME AND SEE ME,
BUSY MAN LIKE YOU.

I'M SORRY I'M LATE,
BUT THE MEETING WENT ON
LONGER THAN WE EXPECTED.

THEY ALWAYS DO.

OH, PLEASE,
DON'T GET UP.

NO, I MUSTN'T
AT THAT.

WELL, IT'S
GOOD TO SEE YOU
LOOKING SO WELL.

DO SIT DOWN, MURRAY.

WOULD YOU LIKE SOME
HOT TEA, OR WOULD YOU
PREFER A DRINK OF WHISKEY?

NO, THANK YOU.

THE WAY THINGS LOOK,
I'M AFRAID I WON'T GET
TO LONDON THIS SPRING.

I'M SORRY
TO HEAR THAT, SIR.

FIRST TIME IN 40 YEARS.

THIS YEAR I THOUGHT
I'D TRY ONE OF THOSE
MEDITERRANEAN CRUISES.

I'VE BEEN READING
THAT MAN DURRELL.

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN
TO THE MIDDLE EAST?

WELL, I WAS IN EGYPT
IN '42. EXCEPT FOR THAT,

I'VE NEVER BEEN
FURTHER THAN GREECE.

I LIVED THERE
FOR ABOUT TWO YEARS.

MURRAY, UH,
I WANT YOU TO MEET
MY DAUGHTER-IN-LAW.

CHRISTINE, THIS IS
MURRAY LOGAN.

HOW DO YOU DO,
MR. LOGAN?

HOW DO YOU DO?

SAM HAS SPOKEN
OF YOU SO OFTEN.

MURRAY WAS VERY
HELPFUL WHEN SAM WAS
IN THE LONDON OFFICE.

YES, I KNOW.
SAM STILL TALKS
ABOUT IT.

WHEN DID YOU
LIVE IN GREECE?

OH, A LONG TIME AGO.

I WAS A PRESS OFFICER
FOR THE BRITISH
GOVERNMENT,

AND I DECIDED
TO STAY THERE.

THEN YOU MUST
HAVE REALLY
SEEN THE COUNTRY.

AS MUCH AS I COULD.

DID IT LIVE
UP TO YOUR
EXPECTATIONS?

IT MADE NONSENSE
OF MY IMAGININGS.

IT WAS BETTER
THAN ANYTHING
I COULD HAVE IMAGINED.

Mr. Bonner: WE ALL
HAVE OUR PASSIONS,

AND CHRISTINE'S
IS FOR GREECE.

I'M TERRIBLY SORRY.
I'M SURE YOU TWO
WANT TO TALK SHOP.

DON'T YOU DARE.

NO ONE'S ALLOWED
TO TALK SHOP WITH ME
TILL NEXT WEEK.

I HEAR THE HANCOCKS
ARE GIVING YOU

ONE OF THEIR PARTIES
TONIGHT.

YES. IT'S VERY
KIND OF THEM.

Mr. Bonner: UH-HUH.
YOU KNOW, I CAN
REMEMBER THE DAYS

WHEN PUBLISHING
USED TO BE DONE
BY PROFESSIONALS.

NOWADAYS, YOU
CAN'T TELL WHETHER
A MAN'S A POET

OR A SOAP SALESMAN.
IT'S MOST UPSETTING,

AND IT'S VERY
CONFUSING.

Christine:
MR. LOGAN?

Mr. Bonner: GO AHEAD.
SHE'LL GIVE YOU
NO PEACE UNTIL YOU DO.

YES?

IS THIS THE WAY
IT REALLY LOOKS?

IF ANY PICTURE
COULD DO IT JUSTICE.

LET'S SEE.

UH! THAT'S DELPHI.

I WONDER IF THEY
HAVE A DRAWING
OF THE OLIVE GROVES.

THEY GO RIGHT DOWN
TO THE GULF.

YOU KNOW, IN CERTAIN
LIGHT, YOU CAN'T SEE

WHERE THE TREES END
AND THE WATER
BEGINS.

THESE ARE THE ISLANDS.

THIS IS MYKONOS.

I THINK IT'S
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL
PLACE I'VE EVER SEEN.

[DOOR OPENS]

[FOOTSTEPS]

I MUST BE GOING.

NOT YET, MY DEAR.

I'VE STAYED LONGER
THAN MISS SHAW
SAID I COULD.

Miss Shaw: NOW, MR. BONNER,
YOU KNOW WHAT DR. WHITEMAN
SAID ABOUT VISITORS.

I SHOULD BE
ON MY WAY, TOO.

BOTH OF YOU?

IT'S TIME, SIR.

Mr. Bonner:
YES, I SUPPOSE IT IS.

MURRAY WILL TAKE YOU
WHEREVER YOU WANT TO GO.

I CAN TAKE MYSELF.

I'VE OFTEN WONDERED
WHAT IT'S LIKE

TO SEE NEW YORK
FOR THE FIRST TIME.

ARE YOU ENJOYING IT,
MR. LOGAN?

VERY MUCH.
THE PART
I LIKED BEST

WAS MY VISIT
TO RUNNYBROOK
ON SUNDAY.

HUH. I DIDN'T REALIZE
YOU'D BEEN THERE.

WON'T YOU AT LEAST
TELL ME WHERE
YOU'RE STAYING?

YOU'LL TELL SAM.

PLEASE TRY
TO UNDERSTAND,
FREDERICK.

GOOD-BYE, SIR.

GOOD-BYE, MY BOY.
DROP BY AGAIN,
IF YOU CAN.

I'M AFRAID I'M LEAVING
FOR LONDON TOMORROW.

WELL, NEXT TIME YOU'RE
IN THE STATES. YOU'LL
BE COMING OVER OFTEN NOW.

I HOPE SO. BYE.

BYE.

YOU WANTED TO SEE
HOW I'D TAKE IT.

THAT'S WHY YOU SPOKE
ABOUT RUNNYBROOK.

SAM TALKED TO YOU,
DIDN'T HE?

YES, HE DID.

[SIGH]

I CAN'T TELL YOU
HOW SORRY I AM.

I KNOW WHAT THIS
MUST BE DOING
TO SAM,

AND I--I DON'T
WANT TO HURT HIM.

ALL HE WANTS IS
TO HAVE YOU BACK.

IT'S AS SIMPLE
AS THAT.

IS IT?
I WISH I COULD
MAKE YOU SEE.

I WISH I COULD MAKE
SOMEONE SEE.

WHAT ABOUT FREDERICK?

FREDERICK'S
THE LAST PERSON
I CAN TALK TO.

SAM'S HIS SON.

AND I'M
SAM'S FRIEND.

ANYWAY, I HAVEN'T
MADE SUCH A SUCCESS
OF MY LIFE

THAT I'M QUALIFIED
TO HELP ANYBODY ELSE.

I'LL TAKE
THAT CHANCE.

I HAVE TO.

WILL YOU TELL SAM
WHAT I'VE TOLD YOU--

THAT HE'S
DRIVEN ME AWAY

WITH HIS
NEVER-ENDING
GOODNESS AND CARE?

WELL, ISN'T IT POSSIBLE
FOR YOU TO TELL HIM
THIS YOURSELF?

DON'T YOU THINK
I'VE TRIED?

OH, I KNOW THIS
SOUNDS DREADFUL.

SOMETIMES I THINK
SAM LOVES ME BETTER
ILL THAN WELL.

EVERY EFFORT
I MAKE TO LEAD
A NORMAL LIFE

TEARS HIM
TO PIECES.

IF YOU DID
LEAVE FOR GOOD,
WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

I DON'T KNOW.

I'D LEAD
MY OWN LIFE.

IT MIGHT BE SHORT,
BUT IT WOULD BE
A LIFE.

YOU SEE...
MY--MY MOTHER
ALWAYS TOLD ME

I WAS INCAPABLE
OF LOVE.

I DON'T BELIEVE THAT!

MAYBE I MARRIED SAM
TO GET AWAY

FROM THE KIND OF LIFE
I HAD WITH HER,

BUT I WAS READY
TO GIVE HIM
EVERYTHING I HAD,

TO BE A GOOD WIFE
IN EVERY WAY.

AND IF I GO BACK,
I'LL DO EVERYTHING I CAN

TO MAKE HIM HAPPY,
BUT FOR BOTH OUR SAKES,

IT HAS TO BE ON MY TERMS--
AS HIS WIFE, NOT HIS CHILD.

YOU'LL BE LATE
TO YOUR PARTY.

GENE! GENE!

I WANT YOU
TO MEET MURRAY LOGAN
OF OUR LONDON OFFICE.

YES, COME ON, DARLING.
I HAVE SOMEBODY ELSE
I WANT YOU TO MEET.

OH, HERE ARE
THE AVERYS, DEAR.

UH, MURRAY LOGAN,
OUR LONDON OFFICE...
THE AVERYS.

WELL, HELLO!
SAY, I HAD A LETTER
FROM CYRIL LAST WEEK--

YES, WELL, HE'S DYING
OF THIRST, SWEETHEART.

I JUST HAVE TO
GET HIM A DRINK.

LISTEN, WHY DON'T YOU
LET ME GIVE YOU A PARTY?

SAM!

Woman: YOU'LL GET
A BIG BANG OUT OF ONE
OF MY PARTIES.

SAM.

I BEEN LOOKING
FOR YOU, FELLA.
I JUST SPOKE TO DAD.

HE SAID THAT SHE
WAS THERE TODAY,
THAT YOU MET HER.

YES, I DID.

WELL, FOR GOD'S SAKE,
TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED.

WELL, I MET
WITH YOUR FATHER.

THEN SHE DROVE ME
THROUGH THE PARK.

SHE WHAT? BUT SHE
ISN'T SUPPOSED
TO DRIVE IN TOWN.

THE LAST TIME SHE PULLED
A STUNT LIKE THAT,
SHE COLLAPSED.

WHY DIDN'T YOU STOP HER?
WHY DIDN'T YOU?

IS THERE SOMEWHERE
WE CAN TALK?

UH...COME ON.

JUST DON'T ASK ME
TO SELL NO MOUNTAINS.

WELL, I WON'T.

I CAN'T.

THEY SAY THAT
IF SHE'S CAREFUL FOR 5,
MAYBE 10, YEARS,

SHE MIGHT OUTGROW
SOME OF WHAT'S
WRONG WITH HER.

BUT SHE'S GOT TO BE
PATIENT.

SHE WON'T
BE PATIENT
MUCH LONGER.

BUT SHE'S A CHILD.
SHE DOESN'T KNOW
HER OWN MIND.

IF I DO
WHAT SHE WANTS...

YOU DON'T KNOW.
YOU DON'T REALIZE.

SHE COULD BE GONE
IN A MATTER OF HOURS.

ANYTHING--
THE LEAST EXERTION--
AND THAT COULD BE IT.

SHE HAD A LUNG OPERATION
WHEN SHE WAS 14...
ANOTHER WHEN SHE WAS 18.

SHE'S HAD
PNEUMONIA TWICE.

DON'T YOU SEE
THE RISK I TAKE
IF I GIVE IN TO HER?

IT'S A RISK YOU'VE
GOT TO TAKE, SAM.

YOU HAVEN'T
MUCH CHOICE.

[DOOR OPENS]

I GUESS I'M
JUST A BIG IDIOT,
BUT...OK. OK.

TELL HER I AGREE
TO EVERYTHING
SHE WANTS.

I'M MAKING PROMISES
I KNOW ARE DEAD WRONG,
BUT WHAT ELSE CAN I DO?

SHE'S WHAT
MY LIFE'S ABOUT.

HOW CAN I
THANK YOU, FELLA?

COME ON.
I'M BEING A BAD
GUEST OF HONOR.

BUT DO YOU
REALLY BELIEVE

THAT SAM CAN KEEP
HIS PROMISES?

I MEAN, EVEN
IF HE BELIEVES--

I'M SURE HE WILL.

BECAUSE...I CANNOT
GO THROUGH IT AGAIN.

I DON'T SUPPOSE
HE CAN, EITHER.

DO YOU--DO YOU
REALLY BELIEVE
PEOPLE CAN CHANGE?

UP TO A POINT.
THANK YOU.

COULD YOU?

IF I HAD SUFFICIENT
REASON, AND SAM HAS.

BUT YOU KNOW, CHRISTINE,

YOU--YOU MUSTN'T
EXPECT HIM
TO CHANGE OVERNIGHT.

HE HAS TO SEE YOU
IN A NEW LIGHT...

AND THAT'S NOT EASY,
ESPECIALLY FOR SOMEBODY WHO--

[WOMAN LAUGHS]

Woman: NATURALLY, ONE CAN'T BE
ON EVERY BEST-DRESSED LIST,

BUT TO BE BLITZED BY--

MURRAY, LET'S GO.

...WHOSE HUSBAND MADE IT
PUSHING HAPPY PILLS.

PIERRE WAS REALLY VERY SWEET
ABOUT IT.

HE SAID THE CURLS
COULDN'T HAVE LOOKED WORSE

IF SHE PUT THEM ON ONE
OF HER HORSES. HA HA HA!

CHRISTINE!

ORDER ME A VODKA GIBSON--
A DOUBLE.

WELL, THIS IS
A SURPRISE.

I'D HEARD
YOU WERE IN CUERNAVACA.

I GOT BACK
YESTERDAY.

HOW'S YOUR SISTER?
I HEAR SHE'S UNLOADED
HER BAVARIAN LIFEGUARD.

MARIAN'S FINE.

YOU NEED A SCOREBOARD
TO KEEP TRACK OF PEOPLE
THESE DAYS, MR., UH...

MURRAY LOGAN.

I'M NINA GELLERT.
WE'VE MET, HAVEN'T WE?

PALM BEACH?

I DON'T
THINK SO.

WELL, I MUSTN'T
KEEP YOU TWO.

WE SHOULD LUNCH
SOON, DEAR.

GOOD-BYE.

THEY'RE A VERY
ATTRACTIVE COUPLE.
WHO ARE THEY?

HIS NAME IS MURRAY LOGAN
OR LOGAN MURRAY--
ONE OR THE OTHER.

SHE IS MY DAUGHTER.

UH...I--I'M
ALWAYS LIKE THIS
WHEN I SEE HER.

I PANIC
AND WANT TO RUN.

OH, IT'S RIDICULOUS.

WE ALL HAVE
SOMEONE WE FEEL
LIKE THAT ABOUT.

OH, BUT SHE'S
EVERYTHING I'M
AFRAID I MIGHT BE--

SELFISH AND UNLOVING.

MURRAY, I DON'T
LOOK LIKE HER, DO I?

I--I DON'T SOUND
LIKE HER?

NOT IN THE LEAST.

I'M SORRY.

YOU HAVEN'T
EVEN HAD A CHANCE
TO GET YOUR COFFEE.

Murray: YOU KNOW,

EVERYTHING ABOUT
GREECE IS LIKE THAT.

IT'S SIMPLE, IMMEDIATE,
AND UNCHANGING,

AND THE VALUES
OF OUR WORLD

SUDDENLY SEEM VERY
REMOTE AND UNIMPORTANT.

SORRY. I'M
INDULGING MYSELF.

IT'S THE CLOSEST
YOU'VE COME TO TALKING
ABOUT YOURSELF.

I DON'T KNOW
ANYTHING ABOUT YOU...

EXCEPT WHAT SAM'S
TOLD ME.

AND WHAT DID
SAM TELL YOU?

HOW MUCH
EVERYONE LIKED YOU,

THAT YOU'RE REGARDED
AS THE CONSCIENCE
OF ATLANTIC HOUSE,

THAT YOU USED TO WRITE
AND--AND HAD A NOVEL
PUBLISHED AT 24.

25, ACTUALLY. IT WAS
WUTHERING HEIGHTS
IN THE AEGEAN--

PRETTY BAD. THE TROUBLE
WAS, AT THE TIME,

I DIDN'T KNOW
ANYTHING ABOUT LOVE
OR DESPERATION.

DO YOU WRITE NOW?

NO. I'VE NEVER TRIED
ANOTHER BOOK.

I WRITE AN OCCASIONAL
ARTICLE FOR A MAGAZINE.

THAT'S ALL I HAVE
TIME FOR.

WHAT ELSE DID SAM
TELL YOU ABOUT?

HE SPOKE ABOUT AN ACCIDENT
AND ABOUT YOUR WIFE.

AND MY SON?

WHAT WAS HIS NAME?

MARTIN.

I'D HOPED TO LIVE
MY LIFE AGAIN
THROUGH THE CHILD,

BUT AFTER TIME,
ONE LEARNS NOT
TO FEEL--TO RETREAT.

YOU FIND A WAY
TO GO ON LIVING.

IS THAT ENOUGH--
JUST TO GO ON LIVING?

OH! WE BETTER GO.

OH, IS IT 5:00
ALREADY?

YES.

I--I'D RATHER
WE SAID GOOD-BYE HERE.

MAY I WRITE YOU?
I--I'D LIKE TO,
IF YOU DON'T MIND.

PLEASE.

MURRAY?

HELLO.

DON'T TURN IT OFF.

WELL, I'VE HAD IT.
I'VE BEEN LISTENING
TO IT ALL AFTERNOON.

HOW HAVE YOU BEEN?

OH, AS WELL AS
COULD BE EXPECTED.
HOW WAS YOUR TRIP?

I GOT YOUR CABLE.

WE WERE
AN HOUR LATE.

UH! JETS. OH,
I MADE A NEW SHADE.

PRETTY?

YES, IT'S
VERY NICE.

WELL, IT GIVES ME
SOMETHING TO DO
WITH MY TIME.

YOU MIGHT HAVE
PHONED ME YOURSELF
FROM THE OFFICE.

I'M SORRY. I WAS
WITH KENDRICK
ALL THE AFTERNOON.

OH, YES, OF COURSE.

Wife: MURRAY.

YOU LOOK NICE.

I SUPPOSE
IT'S MEANT TO BE
VERY GLAMOROUS.

I HOPE THEY DIDN'T
HOLD YOU UP
FOR THIS.

NO. I WANTED TO BRING
YOU SOMETHING
FROM AMERICA.

WELL, IT'S JUST
THE THING TO EXCITE
THE GROCER'S BOY.

NOBODY ELSE IS
LIKELY TO SEE IT.

SYBIL, LET'S GO AWAY
SOMEWHERE THIS SUMMER--
ANYWHERE YOU LIKE.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO GO
TO PARIS OR ROME?

YOU'VE JUST BEEN AWAY.

I'M THINKING OF YOU.
YOU NEVER GET OUT
OF HERE. IT'D BE A CHANGE.

NO, IT WOULDN'T BE
A CHANGE.

YOU KNOW I CAN'T STAND
BEING STARED AT.

THOUGH I SUPPOSE
IT MAKES YOU FEEL
GENEROUS SUGGESTING IT.

OTHERWISE, YOU
WOULDN'T DO IT,
KNOWING HOW I FEEL.

I KNOW YOU DON'T LIKE
TO BE REMINDED OF IT,

BUT YOU DO HAPPEN TO BE
RESPONSIBLE, YOU KNOW.

OH, I KNOW WHY YOU'RE
SUGGESTING A TRIP.

YOU HAD QUITE A TIME
IN NEW YORK, AND YOU'RE
FEELING GUILTY ABOUT IT.

DON'T LET'S
DISCUSS IT, THEN.

WHY NOT? WE'RE ADULTS...

AND I SEEM TO REMEMBER
YOU AS A PASSIONATE
SORT OF FELLOW.

I'D HAVE HAD A TIME
OF IT IF I'D BEEN YOU.
I'D HAVE HAD A BALL!

YOU KNOW, MURRAY,
WHEN YOU WERE AWAY,

IT WAS AWFULLY
LONELY AROUND HERE...

LONELIER THAN USUAL.

[HUMMING OVER THE RAINBOW]

♪ THERE'S A LAND
THAT I LONG FOR... ♪

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

YES, MRS. PRITCHARD?
OH, HE DID? I'LL BE
RIGHT OVER.

I HAVE TO SEE THE BOSS.

OH, LESLIE'S CONTRACTS CAME IN.
WILL YOU LOOK THEM OVER?

CHARLES,
YOU WANTED TO SEE ME.

I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.
I'VE GOT THE HUNGARIAN
COUNTESS IN THE BOARDROOM

WITH A NEW VERSION
OF HER MEMOIRS.

DO YOU WANT ME
TO SEE HER?

NO. I GOT
MYSELF INTO THIS.
I'LL GET MYSELF OUT.

GO ALONG IN.
THERE'S A FRIEND
OF YOURS IN THERE.

LILY! I DIDN'T KNOW
YOU WERE HERE.
HOW GOOD TO SEE YOU.

NOW, NONE OF THAT.
I'M VERY CROSS
WITH YOU, MURRAY.

WHY?

YOU'VE BEEN
BACK FROM AMERICA
MORE THAN A WEEK

AND HAVEN'T EVEN
TELEPHONED.

I'VE BEEN MEANING
TO. I'M SORRY.

YES, WELL, SHOW
YOUR REMORSE AND COME
TO DINNER ON FRIDAY.

IT'S OUR 30th
WEDDING ANNIVERSARY.

CHARLES SEEMS
TO THINK IT'S SOME
CAUSE FOR CELEBRATION.

HE'S RIGHT. YOURS IS
THE HAPPIEST MARRIAGE
I'VE EVER SEEN.

MURRAY, I REALIZE HOW
DIFFICULT IT WOULD BE

TO PERSUADE SYBIL
TO COME TO OUR PARTY.

YES, IT WOULD.

I UNDERSTAND.

I'M SORRY. OH,
IT'S SUCH A PITY.

YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES
I THINK I'M TO BLAME
FOR SOME OF WHAT HAPPENED.

YOU REMEMBER WHEN YOU
FIRST TURNED DOWN
CHARLES' OFFER TO WORK HERE

AND WENT OFF TO GREECE?
I WAS ENCHANTED.

RIGHT OR WRONG,
YOU'D MADE YOUR OWN CHOICE.

YOU WERE GOING TO DO
WHAT YOU WANTED.

SO I WAS DISAPPOINTED
WHEN YOU GOT BACK

AND STARTED BRINGING
SYBIL AROUND.

I DIDN'T WANT
TO SEE YOU TIED DOWN.

OH, IT'S ALL SUCH A LONG
TIME AGO, BUT IT WAS MEDDLING
AND VERY WRONG OF ME.

IT WOULDN'T
HAVE MADE MUCH
DIFFERENCE.

EVEN SO, I'D LIKE
TO SET THINGS RIGHT.

YOU WILL TALK
TO HER AND TRY?

I'LL TALK TO HER.

AND GIVE HER MY LOVE.

Sybil: HER LOVE?

DON'T MAKE A SCENE

JUST BECAUSE
LILY'S ASKED YOU
TO A PARTY.

I'M NOT
MAKING A SCENE.

IT'S JUST THAT
I CAN DO VERY WELL

WITHOUT HER ARTY-SMARTY
PARTIES, THANK YOU.

I'VE DONE WITHOUT THEM
FOR THE PAST 12 YEARS.

WHO DOES SHE
THINK SHE IS?

AND THAT DREARY
HUSBAND OF HERS.

Christine:
DEAR MURRAY,

I'M IN TOWN
JUST FOR THE DAY.

I CAME IN
FOR A ROUTINE CHECKUP,

SO I'M ENJOYING MY DAY

REMEMBERING
OUR AFTERNOON TOGETHER.

WRITING TO YOU
IS GIVING ME

A GREAT AND PROBABLY SELFISH
SATISFACTION.

I WONDER IF WRITING TO ME
WOULD DO THE SAME FOR YOU,

BUT IT'S A PLEASURE
I'LL HAVE TO DO WITHOUT.

IT WOULD HURT SAM
TOO MUCH

TO KNOW I'VE TOLD YOU
SO MUCH.

OH, MOST TERRIFIC NEWS!

BELOW THE ANGELS GOT
THE BOOK OF THE YEAR PRIZE!

CHARLES HAD A WIRE.

WELL, YOU COULD SHOW
SOME ENTHUSIASM.

HE'S YOUR AUTHOR.

I'M SORRY, DICKIE.
IT'S FABULOUS,
OF COURSE.

Christine:
DEAR MURRAY,

I WISH YOU'D SEEN MORE
OF CONNECTICUT.

ONCE YOU GET FURTHER
INTO THE COUNTRY,

IT'S EVEN MORE
BEAUTIFUL.

SOMETIMES I--I DRIVE
DOWN TO THE BEACH

WHERE I SPENT
SO MUCH TIME AS A CHILD,

AND IT EASES MY LONELINESS
FOR A WHILE,

BUT THEN
THERE ARE TIMES

WHEN IT BECOMES
UNBEARABLE AGAIN,

AND MY ONLY THOUGHT IS

THAT THE ONE PERSON
I CAN TELL THESE THINGS TO

LIVES THOUSANDS OF MILES
AWAY FROM ME.

[ROCK MUSIC BLARING]

Christine:
I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE IT,
BUT IT'S TRUE.

WE'RE COMING TO EUROPE
FOR A MONTH.

SAM THINKS
THAT A SEA TRIP WILL DO ME GOOD.

HE SENDS HIS LOVE.

HE WON'T BE ABLE TO BE
SAILING WITH ME

BECAUSE BUSINESS WILL KEEP HIM
HERE THROUGH THE WEEK,

BUT HE HOPES TO FLY OVER
THE FOLLOWING WEEKEND.

SAM'S MADE
RESERVATIONS FOR US

AT THE SAVOY
OVERLOOKING THE RIVER.

MURRAY.

WHAT DO WE SAY?

I'M NOT VERY GOOD
AT GREETINGS.

NEITHER AM I.

I'VE GOT A TAXI.

WE CAN'T KEEP
ATLANTIC HOUSE WAITING.

THE KENDRICKS ARE
GIVING YOU LUNCH.

AND ON YOUR
FIRST VISIT,

EVERYTHING SHOULD HAVE
BEEN PERFECT.

I'M AFRAID SAM WILL NEVER
FORGIVE US THIS WEATHER.

[QUIETLY]
YOU DIDN'T TELL ME.

THAT'S A FASCINATING
YOUNG WOMAN.

I HAVE THE FEELING
SHE'S NOT ALTOGETHER

AT PEACE
WITH HERSELF.

SHE REMINDS ME
A LITTLE

OF THE WAY YOU WERE
WHEN YOU DECIDED
TO LEAVE ENGLAND.

HA HA HA!

TELL ME, CHRISTINE,

HOW LONG DO
YOU AND SAM PLAN
TO STAY IN GREECE?

WELL, AT LEAST
TWO WEEKS--

MAYBE 3 IF SAM CAN FIND
THE TIME.

OH, THERE'S--THERE'S SO MUCH
I WANT TO SEE.

PERHAPS YOU SHOULD
TALK TO MURRAY.

HE'S LIVED
IN GREECE.

I HAVE SOME BOOKS
I COULD LEND YOU

AND A FEW MAPS
I'VE MARKED OUT.

I'VE BEEN READING BOOKS
ALL MY LIFE.

NOW I WANT TO SEE IT
FOR MYSELF.

ANYWAY,
I TALKED TO MURRAY

COMING OVER HERE
IN THE TAXI.

SAM WAS HOPING
HE AND SYBIL

COULD COME WITH US
TO GREECE.

I'M AFRAID
IT'S IMPOSSIBLE.
I CAN'T GET AWAY.

Dickie: HERE'S
AN EXCITING THOUGHT.

I'VE A HOLIDAY
COMING UP.

Lily: CHRISTINE,
IF YOU'RE FREE
THIS AFTERNOON,

THERE ARE
SOME PAINTINGS
I'D LIKE YOU TO SEE.

I'LL HAVE YOU
TO MYSELF
FOR A WHILE.

[CLOCK CHIMING]

OH!

HAVE YOU BEEN
HERE LONG?

TAKE IT EASY. YOU'RE
ALL OUT OF BREATH.
YOU LOOK EXHAUSTED.

HA HA! LILY'S
INCREDIBLE.

WE WENT THROUGH
3 EXHIBITS,

AND THEN SHE WANTED ME
TO GO HOME WITH HER

AND SEE
HER PAINTINGS.

DID YOU TELL HER
YOU WERE MEETING ME?

I SAID I HAD TO GO
BACK TO THE HOTEL

TO WAIT FOR A CALL
FROM SAM.

MURRAY, I WANT
TO MEET SYBIL.

SUPPOSE
I TELEPHONE AND--

SHE'D SAY NO.
I KNOW SHE WOULD.

WE NEVER HAVE PEOPLE
AT THE HOUSE.

LILY TOLD ME.

I STILL WANT TO TRY.

CHRISTINE, I...

THERE MUST BE
SOME WAY.

I WANT THIS TRIP, MURRAY.
I WANT IT DESPERATELY.

IF THERE WAS
ANY HOPE AT ALL,

I'D SAY
GO AHEAD AND TRY,
BUT THERE ISN'T.

IT'S FOOLISH
FOR EITHER OF US
TO THINK--

OH, MURRAY!

BECAUSE THERE ARE
SOME THINGS

BETWEEN SYBIL AND ME
THAT NOBODY KNOWS.

I DON'T LIKE TALKING
ABOUT MYSELF, BUT...

I'M RESPONSIBLE
FOR WHAT HAPPENED
TO SYBIL.

OH, MURRAY, PLEASE.

I MET SYBIL WHEN
I FIRST GOT BACK
FROM GREECE.

I'D COME BACK
BECAUSE MY BOOK
WAS BEING PUBLISHED,

AND I DIDN'T EXPECT
TO STAY LONGER
THAN A FEW WEEKS.

MY AFFAIR WITH SYBIL
BEGAN CASUALLY,

AND BEFORE
I KNEW IT,

I WAS CAUGHT UP

IN A VILE
AND HUNGRY WAY.

WE WERE MARRIED

WHEN SHE WAS
3 MONTHS PREGNANT,

AND I WENT TO WORK
AT ATLANTIC HOUSE.

IF I HAD ANY DOUBTS
ABOUT THE MARRIAGE,

I THOUGHT THE CHILD
WOULD SAVE IT.

IN TRUTH, EXACTLY
THE OPPOSITE
HAPPENED.

IT WAS NOW SYBIL
WHO FELT TRAPPED,

WHILE I LET
MY WORK AND MARTIN

BECOME MY LIFE.

WHEN MARTIN WAS 3,

WE DROVE TO THE COUNTRY
ONE WEEKEND.

ON THE WAY HOME,
WE STARTED TO QUARREL.

SHE ALWAYS FELT MY FRIENDS
DIDN'T ACCEPT HER.

...PRETENDING
I WASN'T EVEN THERE!

I TOLD HER SHE IMAGINED
THESE THINGS.

SHE SAID I WAS THE ONE
THAT IMAGINED THINGS.

IF ANYBODY'S
IMAGINING THINGS,
IT'S YOU.

I KNEW
SHE WANTED A ROW.

IMAGINING
THIS KID IS YOURS,
FOR INSTANCE.

PERHAPS I HALF-BELIEVED
WHAT SHE SAID.

I DON'T KNOW.
I CAN'T BE SURE.

CAN'T YOU IMAGINE
OTHER MEN WANTING ME

OR ME WANTING
OTHER MEN?

[CAR HORN HONKING]

YOU'RE NOT AS GOOD
AS ALL THAT,
YOU KNOW.

YOU NEVER HAVE BEEN.
AAH!

THE BOY DIED.

SYBIL WENT
TO HOSPITAL
FOR 4 MONTHS.

THE FIRST TIME
THEY LET ME SEE HER,

SHE TOLD ME
THAT WHAT SHE SAID

ABOUT THE CHILD
WASN'T TRUE

AND THAT I KNEW IT.

THAT WAS
ALMOST 7 YEARS AGO.

WELL, THAT'S
THE WHOLE UGLY
STORY,

EXCEPT THAT
TWO YEARS AGO,

I FELT
THAT WE COULDN'T
GO ON AS WE WERE.

I SUGGESTED
THAT WE SEPARATE.
SHE AGREED.

THEN THE FIRST NIGHT
I WAS AWAY,

SHE TRIED
TO KILL HERSELF
WITH SLEEPING PILLS.

NOW YOU SEE
WHY SYBIL

WOULD NEVER FORGET
WHAT'S HAPPENED

OR LET ME FORGET.

I TOLD HER
SHE COULD COME
IF SHE LIKED.

DON'T BE SURPRISED
IF I GET A MIGRAINE
AT THE LAST MINUTE.

SUIT YOURSELF.

IS SHE
VERY AMERICAN--

LOUD?

NONE OF THE OTHER
PEOPLE

FROM ATLANTIC HOUSE

EVER TRIED TO FORCE
THEIR WAY IN HERE.

I THINK IT'S
RATHER PECULIAR.

WHAT'S PECULIAR
ABOUT IT?

JUST IS, THAT'S ALL.

HAS SHE GOT
ANY CHILDREN?

NO.

IS SHE PRETTY--
THE GLAMOROUS TYPE?

DOES SHE DRESS WELL?

WITH ALL THAT MONEY,
SHE SHOULD.

DOES SHE KNOW
WHAT I LOOK LIKE?

WELL, IF SHE'S
COMING TO TEA,

I DON'T WANT TO LOOK
LIKE SOMETHING

DRAGGED
OUT OF A DUSTBIN.

I'LL NEED
A NEW DRESS.

WELL, BUY ONE.

IT WILL PROBABLY
BE EXPENSIVE.

VERY WELL.

Sybil: THAT'S
QUITE A CAR.

WE'VE NEVER HAD
ANYTHING THAT GRAND
AT OUR FRONT GATE.

OH, IT'S JUST
A HIRED ONE.

OH, IS THAT
WHAT IT IS?

I'LL COME OVER ONE DAY.
WE CAN GO FOR A DRIVE.

OH, I DON'T GO OUT
VERY MUCH.

DIDN'T MURRAY TELL YOU?

WITH THIS, WOULD YOU
WANT TO BE SEEN?

I'M SURE I WOULD IF
I LOOKED LIKE YOU.

I HATE BEING STARED AT.

[RING]

IT'S RATHER LIKE
FLIES

THAT YOU CAN'T
BRUSH AWAY.

I DON'T LIKE PEOPLE
TO PITY ME.

I UNDERSTAND.

I USED TO FEEL THAT WAY
MYSELF ALL THE TIME...

WHEN--WHEN I WAS ILL.

I'VE LEARNED
MOST OF THE TIME

PEOPLE DON'T REALLY
CARE ENOUGH TO PITY US.

YOU KNOW,
I'D GO OFF MY HEAD

IF IT WASN'T
FOR THE TELLY
AND THAT GRAMOPHONE.

HA HA! BUT...

DON'T YOU EVER
WANT TO GET AWAY?

GET AWAY? WHERE?

OH, INTO LONDON,
TO THE THEATER.

TRAVEL, EVEN.

WELL, HOW DO YOU
MEAN, TRAVEL?

ABROAD?

WELL, YOU MUST WANT
TO SEE NEW PLACES.

HOW DO YOU LIKE
YOUR TEA?

OH, WITH MILK,
PLEASE.

WHAT DID YOU MEAN
WHEN YOU ASKED ME

IF I WANTED
TO GET AWAY?

I HAVE AN IDEA.

HA HA!

NO, THAT'S NOT TRUE,
ACTUALLY.

IT'S SAM'S
AND MY IDEA.

WHY DON'T YOU COME
TO GREECE WITH US--
YOU AND MURRAY?

WE'RE LEAVING
IN A WEEK,

AND IT WOULD BE WONDERFUL
IF WE COULD ALL GO
TOGETHER.

TO GREECE?

OH, PLEASE,
THINK ABOUT IT.

WELL, WHY US?

YOU MUST HAVE
OTHER FRIENDS
YOU COULD GO WITH.

WE...

WE WANT TO GO
WITH THE TWO OF YOU.

OH, SYBIL, YOU'D--
YOU'D ENJOY IT.

HA HA! I HOPE
YOU DON'T MIND
MY CALLING YOU SYBIL.

WHY SHOULD I?

HA HA! MURRAY AND I
ALREADY CALL EACH OTHER

BY OUR FIRST NAMES.

IT DOESN'T TAKE LONG
IN AMERICA.

NO. NOTHING DOES,
I'M TOLD.

[DOOR CLOSES]

Sybil: HELLO.

SORRY I'M LATE.

DID YOU HAVE ANY TROUBLE
FINDING YOUR WAY?

NO. YOUR DIRECTIONS
WERE FINE.

IT TOOK EVEN LESS TIME
THAN YOU SAID IT WOULD.

CHRISTINE AND I
HAVE BEEN TALKING

ABOUT HER TRIP
TO GREECE.

DID YOU KNOW
SHE WAS GOING?

YES. WE TALKED
ABOUT IT AT LUNCH
AT ATLANTIC HOUSE.

OH. I DIDN'T KNOW
THERE HAD BEEN
A LUNCH.

DID YOU TELL HIM

ABOUT YOUR HUSBAND'S
IDEA?

I SUPPOSE YOU SAID
I WOULDN'T GO,

THAT I NEVER GO
ANYWHERE.

HOW DO YOU GET
TO GREECE?

DO YOU FLY?

Christine: WE'D HAVE TO
WITH THE TIME SAM HAS.

IT MEANS I'D HAVE TO
GO INTO LONDON

AND GET A PASSPORT.

IT MEANS
I'D HAVE TO HAVE
PHOTOGRAPHS TAKEN.

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

[RING]

Murray: HELLO.

YES, THIS IS
MURRAY LOGAN.

YES, I'LL TAKE IT.

NO, NO, IT'S ALL RIGHT.
IT DOESN'T MATTER.

OH, SAM, I'M SORRY.
I'M SORRY TO HEAR THAT.

I HOPE SO, YES.

YES, YES,
I UNDERSTAND.

WELL, HOW SERIOUS
IS IT?

WHO IS IT?
WHAT'S WRONG?

SAM.

CALLING
FROM NEW YORK?

SHE'S SO DEVOTED
TO FREDERICK,

SHE'D BE
ON THE FIRST PLANE BACK.

I, UM...

I STARTED TO PHONE HER
LAST NIGHT

TO TELL HER
THAT THE TRIP WAS OFF,

BUT I COULDN'T.

SHE HAS A FEELING

THAT IF SHE DOESN'T GO NOW,
SHE NEVER WILL,

BUT, UH...

I DON'T KNOW
WHAT THE HELL TO DO.

WELL, LET ME THINK
ABOUT IT,

AND I'LL RING YOU
TOMORROW.

NO, I WON'T SAY
A WORD.

TRY NOT TO WORRY,
SAM. BYE.

WELL, WHAT WAS
ALL THAT ABOUT?

FREDERICK'S HAD
ANOTHER ATTACK.

SAM WON'T BE ABLE TO
GET AWAY FROM NEW YORK
FOR A WHILE.

OH, DOES THAT MEAN
OUR TRIP'S OFF?

I WAS PLANNING TO GO
TO LONDON TOMORROW
AND GET MY PASSPORT.

WHY ARE YOU STARING?

REALLY,
YOU ARE A CARD.

YOU WERE AFTER ME
FOR MONTHS

TO GET OUT
AND GO SOMEWHERE,

AND WHEN
I FINALLY AGREE--
WHAT'S THE MATTER?

DON'T YOU
WANT TO GO?

Woman on P.A.: OUR FLIGHT
WILL TAKE US OVER NAPLES

AND THE NORTHERN
PELOPONNESUS.

WE EXPECT TO LAND
AT HELLINIKON AIRPORT

AT 1715 ATHENS TIME.

WE WILL MAINTAIN
AN ALTITUDE OF 35,000 FEET.

THANK YOU.

[WOMAN ON P.A.
SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE]

WE SYRIANS ARE
VERY CONSCIOUS

OF OUR TIES
WITH GREECE AND ROME.

BEFORE I DECIDED
TO FOLLOW MEDICINE,

I TOOK MY MAJOR
IN ARCHAEOLOGY.

I RETURN TO GREECE
EVERY CHANCE I GET.

YOUR GLASSES,
MRS. LOGAN.

[DRUNKENLY]
SHE'S MRS. BONNER.

I'M MRS. LOGAN.

OH, I APOLOGIZE.
FORGIVE ME.

Woman on P.A.: TO THE LEFT
OF THE AIRCRAFT,

YOU CAN SEE
THE MEDITERRANEAN.

IMMEDIATELY BELOW,
FIUMICINO AIRPORT IN OSTIA.

[WOMAN ON P.A.
SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE]

OH, SYBIL,
LOOK AT THIS.

OH, LET ME ENJOY
MY THRILLER.

I AM
AT A VERY SEXY PAGE.

TELL ME, DOCTOR,
HAVE YOU EVER BEEN

TO CLARA WHAT'S-HER-NAME'S
VILLA UP ON THE HILL?

YOU KNOW WHO I MEAN--
OLD MUSSO'S MISTRESS.

I HEAR IT'S THE POSHEST
RESTAURANT IN ROME.

NO, MRS. LOGAN.
NO, NO, I HAVE NOT
BEEN THERE.

IT'S THE ONE PLACE
I'D CARE TO SEE.

YOU CAN KEEP GREECE
AND ALL ITS RUINS.

THANK YOU.

NO. I WON'T BE
NEEDING THAT.

MY TREAT!
I'LL MEET YOU
UP AT THE TOP!

[MAN SPEAKING GREEK]

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

I'M JUST A LITTLE
OUT OF BREATH.

I'M--I'M FINE.

Sybil: AH,
THERE YOU ARE.

WELCOME TO THE GLORIFIED
JUNKYARD.

IF YOUR GREEK FRIENDS
ARE SO SMART,

WHY DIDN'T THEY BUILD
AN ESCALATOR?

HA HA! YOU LOOK AS IF
YOU COULD HAVE USED ONE.
YOU TWO GO ON.

AREN'T YOU GOING TO SEE
THE PARTHENON?

NO. I'M ENJOYING MYSELF
HERE. YOU GO ON.

AND HAVE A BALL.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

Sybil: COME IN.

[DOOR OPENS]

WELL, WHO
SENT US THESE?

OH.

YES, SIR.
EFHARISTO.

THANK YOU.

HA HA HA!

WHAT'S THE JOKE?

"HAVE A WONDERFUL TIME.

"STILL HOPE
TO JOIN YOU IF I CAN.

THANK YOU FOR LOOKING
AFTER CHRISTINE."

SIGNED, "GRATEFULLY,
SAM." HA HA!

OH, SHUT UP, SYBIL.

OH, I BET THIS PLACE
IS COSTING A PRETTY PENNY.

IS SHE PAYING
FOR THE HEARSE
WE'RE RIDING IN?

NO. WE'RE GOING
HALVES.

WHY? IT WAS
HER IDEA.

TELL ME,
DID YOU NOTICE

THAT LOOK THE MAN
ON THE PLANE
GAVE ME?

I DON'T MEAN YOUR
DREARY ARAB FRIEND.

IT WASN'T MY FACE
HE WAS LOOKING AT.

IN THIS PART
OF THE WORLD,

THAT KIND OF LOOK

IS CONSIDERED
A COMPLIMENT.

WELL, I DON'T
LIKE IT.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

I'M GOING TO SEND
A CABLE.

TO GRATEFULLY SAM?
I SUPPOSE YOU'D BETTER,
OR HE'LL BE WAKING US UP

IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE NIGHT AGAIN

TO BE SURE
THAT WE'RE LOOKING AFTER
DEAR LITTLE CHRISTINE...

THOUGH I MUST SAY,

IT'S ALL
VERY PECULIAR

IN MORE WAYS
THAN ONE.

WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?

IT'S ALL RIGHT
IF SHE'S IN LOVE
WITH YOU,

BUT YOU'D BE
AN IDIOT

TO FALL IN LOVE
WITH HER.

IF YOU THINK I'M GOING TO
DISCUSS THIS NONSENSE,
YOU'RE VERY MUCH--

I'M THE ONE THAT'S
DISCUSSING IT.

YOU MIGHT THINK
ABOUT IT

WHILE YOU'RE WIRING
DEAR OLD SAM.

YOU AND HE ARE
SUCH CHUMS.

I DON'T EVEN THINK
SHE'S PRETTY.

SHE'S THIN
AS A BEAN.

Man: AH, MRS. BONNER,
MR. AND MRS. LOGAN.
HOW DO YOU DO?

I'M VERY GLAD
TO SEE YOU AGAIN.
BEAUTIFUL DAY.

TODAY, I HAVE
A WONDERFUL PROGRAM--

MOST INSTRUCTIVE
AND ENTERTAINING.

FIRST WE GO
TO THE MONASTERY
OF KAISARIANI.

Driver:
THIS BYZANTINE
MONASTERY

WAS FOUNDED
IN THE 11th
CENTURY A.D.

THESE OTHER
BUILDINGS OVER THERE

WERE BUILT
MUCH LATER

IN THE 17th CENTURY.

THE MONKS
WERE CULTIVATING

LETTERS, PHILOSOPHY,
AND LITERATURE.

AT THE SAME TIME,
THEY WERE MAKING

THE VERY FAMOUS
HONEY OF HYMETTOS.

Man: IN THE BEST
FAMILY TRADITION,

HE RAVISHED DEMETER
HIS SISTER,

THEN HAD A SON--
A MOST OBJECTIONABLE GIANT--

BY HIS GRANDMOTHER EARTH

BEFORE HE BEGAN COURTING
THE SEA NYMPH THETIS

TO HAVE A SPOUSE
SO HE'D FEEL AT HOME

IN THE DEPTHS
OF THE SEA.

AS FAR AS
I'M CONCERNED,

I'D SETTLE FOR ONE REAL MAN
IN A BUSINESS SUIT.

OH, SYBIL.

Murray:
SYBIL! SYBIL.

THERE YOU ARE.
I'VE BEEN LOOKING

ALL OVER THE PLACE
FOR YOU.

WE LOST YOU
FOR A MOMENT.

IT'S ABSOLUTELY DREADFUL.
THEY JUST STAND THERE

GAZING AT YOU
AND PICKING THEIR TEETH.

LEAVING ME ALONE WITH A BUNCH
OF MANIC-DEPRESSIVES...

MURRAY, I'M NOT
VERY HUNGRY.

SYBIL, WE ARRANGED
THIS--

OH, SYBIL, PLEASE.

IT--IT'S NICE
BY THE WATER.

I'M GOING BACK
TO THE HOTEL.

I'M NOT ROMANTIC

LIKE YOU
AND CHRISTINE.

I'M SICK OF SMELLS
AND ART AND CROWDS.

ANY OBJECTIONS?

TAKE MRS. LOGAN
BACK TO THE HOTEL.

WE'LL WAIT
FOR YOU HERE.

I'M SORRY
ABOUT THIS, MURRAY.

I REALLY HOPED
SHE'D ENJOY
THIS TRIP.

I DON'T KNOW.
MAYBE...

MAYBE IF
SHE THOUGHT

YOU WERE WITH HER
MORE, OR...

MAYBE IF I WENT OFF
WITH ANDREAS.

IT'S NOT
AS SIMPLE AS THAT.

I WAS WRONG.

[MAN SPEAKING GREEK]

HOW LONG DO YOU THINK
WE CAN GO ON LIKE THIS?

IS IT POSSIBLE...

FEELING ABOUT YOU
THE WAY I DO?

I'VE SAID IT.

WE'VE BOTH
SAID IT...

FROM THE BEGINNING.

[SPEAKING ITALIAN]

THAT'S ITALIAN.

JUST MAKE IT
STRAIGHT GIN.

Man: FILATSES.

WHAT?

CLARA WHAT'S-
HER-NAME'S VILLA--

THAT'S WHAT
IT'S CALLED.

MUSSO'S MISTRESS.

I COULD
HAVE TOLD YOU
ON THE PLANE,

ONLY I WASN'T SURE
I'D BE WELCOME.

IT'S A RELIEF
TO TALK TO SOMEONE
FROM HOME.

OH, MY NAME
IS GROVES--
LEN GROVES.

THIS YOUR FIRST TRIP
TO ATHENS?

BLOODY BORING PLACE,
IF YOU ASK ME.

ANYTIME YOU'RE
TIRED OF RUINS,

I COULD SHOW YOU
A COUPLE OF SPOTS

NOT LISTED
IN THE AMUSEMENT
GUIDES,

IF YOU'D LIKE.

YOU'LL FIND ME
IN THE BAR HERE
MOST OF THE TIME.

WELL, DON'T GO.

AT LEAST STAY
AND HAVE YOUR DRINK.

THERE'S--THERE'S SOMEONE
WAITING FOR ME.

STOP STARING,
WILL YOU?

I'VE BEEN STARED AT
ENOUGH LATELY.

THE CAR'S BEEN DOWNSTAIRS
FOR HALF AN HOUR.

WE HAVE A LONG DRIVE.

DO WE?

ISN'T THAT
THRILLING?

NATURALLY,
THE TWO OF YOU

NEVER BOTHERED
TO LET ME IN ON
YOUR LITTLE PLANS.

YOU COULD HAVE
TOLD ME LAST NIGHT.

YOU WERE ASLEEP
WHEN I CAME IN.

DON'T GET INTO
A STEW ABOUT IT.

WON'T HURT HER LADYSHIP
TO WAIT A FEW MINUTES.

ARE WE GOING TO HAVE
A REPETITION OF LAST NIGHT'S
PERFORMANCE?

I DON'T KNOW WHAT
YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

JUST BECAUSE I DON'T
CARE TO WANDER AROUND
A FILTHY WATERFRONT.

WHY? DID HER LADYSHIP
COMPLAIN?

WELL, FOR YOUR
INFORMATION AND HERS,

I'VE GOT A FEW
COMPLAINTS OF MY OWN--

SUCH AS BEING
BORED TO DEATH
IN THIS DREARY TOWN.

OH, FOR HEAVEN'S
SAKE, SYBIL.

OH, I CAN IMAGINE
WHAT IT WILL BE LIKE
NEXT WEEK

AT DELPHI
AND PELOPO-WHATSIS.

MADE TO FEEL LIKE
ODD MAN OUT
BY THE TWO OF YOU

AFTER TRAIPSING HERE
TO THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE
FOR HER CONVENIENCE.

IT'S NOT
FOR ANYBODY'S
CONVENIENCE!

WE'RE HERE TO HAVE
A GOOD TIME.

YOU'RE HERE
TO HAVE A GOOD TIME.

I CAN THINK OF
A FAR BETTER WAY
OF DOING THAT.

SYBIL.

WHAT'S THE MATTER?
YOU AFRAID YOUR GIRL
WILL BE JEALOUS?

SHE IS NOT
MY GIRL.

OH, SHE'S NOT?

OH, DON'T TELL ME
THE TWO OF YOU ARE
STILL HOLDING HANDS?

WHAT ARE YOU
WAITING FOR?

OH, CUT IT OUT!

MURRAY? MURRAY?

YOU'LL BE SORRY! MURRAY!

MURRAY!

MURRAY? MURRAY!

[MAN SPEAKING GREEK]

Sybil: WILL THESE
GO OUT TODAY? THEY'RE
VERY IMPORTANT.

YES, MADAM. THEY'RE
GOING OUT TODAY.

COULD I HAVE
MY KEY, PLEASE?

CERTAINLY.

MADAM.

THANK YOU.

MADAM?

[SPEAKING GREEK]

CAN I STILL HAVE
THAT DRINK?

IF THIS TRIP HASN'T
WORKED OUT EXACTLY
AS WE'D PLANNED--

YOU CAN
SAY THAT AGAIN.

WE'D BETTER MAKE THE MOST
OF THE TIME WE HAVE LEFT
FOR ALL OUR SAKES.

OH, WHAT SMASHING
ENTERTAINMENT

HAVE YOU COOKED UP
FOR TONIGHT?

AFTER DINNER,
I THOUGHT WE'D GO
TO THE SOUND-AND-LIGHT.

[MAN NARRATING IN FRENCH]

I'M NOT READY YET.

OH! I THOUGHT YOU
WERE THE BELLBOY.

WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?

WELL, WHAT DOES IT
LOOK LIKE?

I WAS HOPING
THE TWO OF YOU'D STAY
UP ON THAT DREARY HILL

UNTIL AFTER I'D GONE.

I'M LEAVING YOU,
MY ANGEL.

I'M OFF TO THE RIVIERA
WITH LEONARD GROVES,

IN CASE
YOU'RE INTERESTED.

AND FOR YOUR
INFORMATION,

HE DOESN'T CARE A DAMN
ABOUT MY SCARS.

HE SAYS ANYONE CAN SEE
I'M STILL A BEAUTY.

SAYS I'VE GOT
THE BEST FIGURE
HE'S EVER SEEN.

SAYS I'VE GOT TO STOP
BEING SENSITIVE
ABOUT MYSELF,

AND NO NONSENSE.

HE'S FROM BIRMINGHAM.

HE SELLS
ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT
ALL OVER EUROPE.

SO NOBODY NEEDS
TO FEEL SORRY FOR ME
ANYMORE--

NOT YOU
OR LILY KENDRICK

OR YOUR SICK
LITTLE FRIEND
ACROSS THE HALL.

WELL, WHAT'S THE MATTER?
CAT GOT YOUR TONGUE?

WHAT AM I EXPECTED TO SAY?

WELL, I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT
CONGRATULATE ME.

YOU'RE ALWAYS
AFTER ME TO GET OUT
AND HAVE A CHANGE,

SO THAT'S WHAT
I'M DOING.

IT WON'T LAST,
BUT I DON'T CARE.

THERE'S
LITTLE ENOUGH FUN.

YOU'VE GOT TO
GRAB IT
WHEN YOU CAN.

AND LEN'S
MY SORT OF MAN--
THE REAL MAN.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

COME IN.

YOU CAN TAKE
ALL THESE DOWN.

I'LL BE ALONG
IN A MINUTE.

SO WE'RE GOING TO HAVE
A NICE LITTLE HOLIDAY

IN CANNES AND NICE AND ROME.

AND YOU CAN STOW THIS
FOR A LARK

THE REST OF YOUR
WHOLE BLOODY TOUR.

I DON'T THINK I'VE
FORGOTTEN ANYTHING.

OH, YES.
I WROTE YOU A NOTE

AND PINNED IT
ON YOUR PAJAMAS.

I'VE WRITTEN PRETTY MUCH
ALL I'VE TOLD YOU,
SO KEEP IT.

IT MIGHT COME IN HANDY.
YOU CAN CHARGE ADULTERY.

I JUST THOUGHT
I'D SAY GOOD-BYE.

RELAX, DEAR.
HE'S ALL YOURS.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

LONDON, SIR?

I'M SORRY. TOMORROW'S
FLIGHT IS ALL BOOKED.

I'VE JUST TURNED DOWN
A PARTY OF AMERICAN LADIES.

HOWEVER, IF YOU
WANT ME TO CHECK WITH
THE OTHER AIRLINES--

NO. NEVER MIND.
THANK YOU.

WE'RE LEAVING FOR DELPHI
IN THE MORNING.

IN ARACHOVA, EVERYONE
LIVE TO BE 100 YEAR OLD.

BEST WATER IN GREECE.

HEY!

OUZO.
GREEK NATIONAL DRINK.

VERY GOOD FOR YOU.

YOU LIKE IT?

YES. TASTES LIKE
ROOT BEER.

IT'S VERY GOOD
FOR THE DIGESTION. YES.

[HONKS HORN]

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

I'VE JUST HAD
A SESSION WITH ANDREAS
ABOUT TOMORROW,

IF YOU'RE NOT
TOO TIRED.

I FEEL WONDERFUL.

WHAT DID HE SAY?

WELL, HE THINKS
WE OUGHT TO SEE
THE AMPHITHEATER
IN THE MORNING

AND THEN
THE SANCTUARY.

THAT'S GOOD.
WE CAN HAVE LUNCH HERE.

THEN WE OUGHT TO DO
THE CASTALIAN SPRINGS.

YOU DON'T THINK
THAT'S TOO MUCH?

OF COURSE NOT.

YOU KNOW,
THE ANCIENT GREEKS
BELIEVED

THAT DELPHI
WAS THE HUB
OF THE WORLD.

IF THAT'S TRUE,
THE WHOLE UNIVERSE
IS REVOLVING

WITH US
AT ITS CENTER.

THAT'S A LOVELY THOUGHT.

I NEVER DOUBTED IT
FOR A MOMENT.

COME HERE. I WANT
TO SHOW YOU SOMETHING.

WHY IS IT THAT EVERY
PLACE WE SEE SEEMS TO BE
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL?

OR IS IT JUST
MY IMAGINATION?

A LITTLE OF BOTH.

IT IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL...

WHEN YOU CHOOSE
TO SEE IT THAT WAY.

YOU'D BETTER
GET SOME REST.

GOOD NIGHT, MURRAY.

GOOD NIGHT.

WHY SHOULD WE LISTEN
TO THE ORACLES OF APOLLO?

CAN YOU HEAR THAT?
I WAS DOING IT
IN MY NORMAL VOICE.

I COULD HEAR YOU
PERFECTLY.

I'LL DO IT
A BIT LOWER.

TRY IT AGAIN NOW.

WHY SHOULD WE LISTEN
TO THE ORACLES OF APOLLO

AND TO THE SCREAMING
OF THE BIRDS ABOUT OUR HEADS?

FOR THEY WOULD HAVE IT
THAT I AM DOOMED
TO KILL MY FATHER.

[PERSON APPLAUDING]

DR. ARRAMAN.

BRAVO!

HELLO. HOW LONG
HAVE YOU BEEN THERE?

I'VE HEARD OEDIPUS
MANY TIMES,

BUT NEVER IN THE WAY
I DID JUST NOW.

IT'S NOT EVERY DAY
THAT ONE SEES AN
ENGLISH INTELLECTUAL

PERFORMING
GREEK TRAGEDY

TRANSLATED
BY AN IRISH POET.

DR. ARRAMAN. HOW NICE
TO SEE YOU AGAIN.

A PLEASURE,
I ASSURE YOU.

FROM THE WAY YOU
LOOK, MRS. BONNER,

IT IS CLEAR THAT
GREECE HAS LIVED UP
TO YOUR HOPES.

HAVE YOU BEEN
TO THE SANCTUARY?

NO. WE'RE JUST
ON OUR WAY.

DO YOU MIND IF I
ACCOMPANY YOU?

PLEASE.

YOU KNOW, THIS PLACE
ACTS AS A MAGNET TO ME.

PERHAPS SOME OF MY ANCESTORS
CAME HERE FROM ACROSS THE SEA.

I LIKE TO THINK SO.

NOW, HERE IS WHERE THE ORACLE
MADE HER PROPHECIES,

SEATED ON A TRIPOD
IN A CLOUD OF FUMES

SURROUNDED BY PRIESTS
WHO INTERPRETED
HER UTTERANCES

INTO ENIGMATIC VERSE.

FOR MANY HUNDREDS OF YEARS,
MEN WOULD COME TO SEE HER
FROM ALL OVER

TO ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT WARS,
BUSINESS ENTERPRISES,

AND WHETHER THE GODS
FAVORED THEM IN MATTERS OF LOVE.

THE--THE MOST CELEBRATED
OF ALL GREEK MAXIMS

WAS INSCRIBED THERE.

"KNOW THYSELF."

IF ONLY ONE COULD.

WILL YOU HAVE LUNCH
WITH US, DR. ARRAMAN?

YES. PLEASE DO.
AFTERWARDS, WE CAN SEE
THE SPRINGS TOGETHER.

WELL, LUNCH WOULD BE
VERY PLEASANT,

BUT AS FOR THIS AFTERNOON,

IT LOOKS AS IF THE GODS MAY BE
WITHDRAWING THEIR FAVORS.

[THUNDER]

Arraman: YOUR
DRIVER IS RIGHT.

AT THIS TIME OF YEAR,
THE GREEK WEATHER
IS UNPREDICTABLE.

WAIT TILL
IT CLEARS A LITTLE.

Man: MRS. BONNER?

DID YOU RECEIVE
YOUR TELEPHONE CALL?

WHAT CALL?

I LEFT WORD THAT
YOU WERE TO BE INFORMED.

THERE WAS A CALL
WHILE YOU WERE OUT.

FOR ME?

FORTUNATELY,
THERE IS A ROOM
ON THE FLOOR.

I CAN GIVE IT
TO MRS. GELLERT
WHEN SHE ARRIVES.

SHE TELEPHONED THIS MORNING
FROM ATHENS.

SHE ASKED IF MRS. BONNER
WAS STAYING HERE.

OH, MURRAY, YOU ONLY
MET HER ONCE.
YOU DON'T KNOW HER.

SHE DESTROYED
MY SISTER'S LIFE!

STOP IT!

STOP IT.

YOU DON'T
HAVE TO SEE HER.

WE CAN GO
BEFORE SHE ARRIVES.

WE'RE GOING TO DO
EXACTLY AS WE PLANNED.

WE'RE GOING TO
CROSS THE GULF.
THEN ON TO OLYMPIA.

TOMORROW, WE'LL TAKE
THE INLAND ROAD
TO ATHENS.

NOBODY'S GOING TO SPOIL
THE TIME WE HAVE LEFT.

TAKE THAT OFF
AND PUT IT
ON THE FLOOR.

THANK YOU, MURRAY.

THIS TRIP NO GOOD.
VERY BAD IN RAIN.

HELP ME GET
THE REST OF THE BAGS.

THEY'RE IN THE HALL
NEAR THE DOOR.

NOW, PLEASE, MR. LOGAN.
PLEASE. THIS IS NOT WISE.

WELL, I'M AFRAID WE
HAVE NO ALTERNATIVE.

I REALIZE I'M PRESUMPTUOUS,
BUT I ASSURE YOU,

MRS. BONNER SHOULD NOT
BE ALLOWED TO TRAVEL
IN WEATHER LIKE THIS--

NOT ON OUR
MOUNTAIN ROADS.

IT'S DANGEROUS. RECKLESS.

TO ANYONE WITH
A TRAINED EYE--

I'LL LOOK AFTER HER.

THANK YOU, DOCTOR.

HERE. PUT THIS ON
TO KEEP WARM.

IF YOU FEEL
THE SLIGHTEST CHILL,
PROMISE YOU'LL TELL ME.

I'M FINE,

KNOWING WE HAVE
A LITTLE TIME
LEFT TOGETHER.

IT'S BEGINNING
TO CLEAR.

I KNOW.
IT'S GETTING WARM.

WE'RE NOT FAR
FROM THE FERRY NOW.
IT'S OVER THOSE HILLS
AND DOWN TO THE GULF.

HOW MANY KILOMETERS
TO THE FERRY, ANDREAS?

I THINK WE'VE LOST
A FRIEND THERE.

I'M AFRAID WE HAVE.

MURRAY.

WHAT THE HELL IS
HE DOING? ANDREAS!

[ANDREAS SHOUTING IN GREEK]

ALL RIGHT.

GET OUT, QUICK.

ARE YOU
ALL RIGHT?

YES. WE CAN
GET IT OUT.

[SPEAKING GREEK]

CAR TOO HEAVY.
CAN'T GO FORWARD,
CAN'T GO BACK.

WHAT TO DO NOW?

YOU CRAZY? YOU MAD?
IT'S MY CAR.

SHUT UP AND GET
ON WITH IT, EH?

[SPEAKING GREEK]

[REVVING ENGINE]

THERE WE ARE.

[SPEAKING GREEK]

YOU STILL CRAZY.

YES, I KNOW.

YES, YOU'RE CRAZY. FOOL.

YOU ALL RIGHT?

NEVER BETTER.

YOU'RE NOT ANGRY
AT ANDREAS, ARE YOU?

NO.

CERTAINLY NOT.

BEFORE, I AM
VERY NERVOUS. TIRED.
IN VERY BAD MOOD.

IT'S BEEN
QUITE A DAY
FOR EVERYBODY.

WHAT?

WHY ARE WE
STOPPING NOW?

RETSINA.
GREEK NATIONAL DRINK.

VERY GOOD FOR THE DIGESTION.
VERY GOOD FOR THE NERVES.

WE COULD USE
A LITTLE OF THAT.

YIASOU.

YIASOU.

YIASOU.

YIASOU.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE?

ABOUT 3 HOURS.

[FERRY HORN BLOWING]

[PLAYING GREEK MUSIC]

[PEOPLE CLAPPING]

[PEOPLE CHEERING]

IS ONE HAPPIER,
DO YOU THINK,

WITH 10 YEARS
OF HAPPINESS

THAN IF ONE HAS
10 MINUTES

OR 10 DAYS?

I DON'T KNOW.
I'VE NEVER HAD
THE 10 YEARS.

BECAUSE I'VE NEVER
BEEN HAPPIER

IN MY WHOLE LIFE.

ME, TOO.

IT MUST BE LIKE THIS
ON YOUR ISLAND.

AND WHAT TO NOW?

TO...

TO THE END
OF OUR JOURNEY--

THE HAPPY END.

[MAN SPEAKING GREEK]

YES.

YES, WHAT IS IT?

DID YOU SAY
MRS. BONNER WAS HERE?

Waiter: YES, SIR.
SHE'S AT THE TELEPHONE NOW.

SHE'S CALLING FROM DELPHI.
I'D BETTER GET IT.

NO, I'LL GET IT,
MURRAY.

EFHARISTO.

[SPEAKING GREEK]

[NO AUDIO]

LET ME TALK TO HER.

MURRAY--

MRS. GELLERT, THIS IS
MURRAY LOGAN.

WHY DIDN'T YOU TWO
WAIT FOR ME?

I KNOW YOU GOT
MY CALL.

I SEE.

SAM IS ARRIVING IN ATHENS
TOMORROW NIGHT.

WELL, I'M GLAD
YOU ARE...

BECAUSE YOUR WIFE
HAS WRITTEN

CERTAIN LETTERS,
MR. LOGAN.

SHE SENT THEM
FROM ATHENS.

TO SAM,
TO THE KENDRICKS,

TO HALF THE WORLD,
FOR ALL I KNOW.

I WAS IN PARIS
WHEN SAM CALLED.

I WISH HE HADN'T.

I'D BE AT THE COLLECTIONS
RIGHT NOW

INSTEAD
OF THIS HELLHOLE.

MR. LOGAN, YOU HAVE
INVOLVED CHRISTINE

IN A CHEAP,
SORDID AFFAIR.

NOW, MRS. GELLERT,
THIS IS BETWEEN

SAM, CHRISTINE,
AND MYSELF,

AND I REFUSE TO
DISCUSS IT ANYMORE.

WHY DID SYBIL DO IT?

IT--IT'S VICIOUS.

AND FOR SAM
TO HAVE CALLED MY MOTHER.

I'M SURE
HE ONLY DID IT

TO PROTECT YOU
FROM PEOPLE TALKING.

OH, MURRAY,

WHO'S GOING TO
BELIEVE THAT NOW?

NOT AFTER
THOSE LETTERS.

WHY SHOULD THEY?

BECAUSE
WE'RE INNOCENT,
THAT'S WHY.

ARE WE, MURRAY?

Andreas:
OH, MR. LOGAN!

WHAT TIME WILL YOU WANT
THE CADILLAC TOMORROW?

UH, AT 11:00.
WE'RE LEAVING
FOR ATHENS.

ATHENS? WHAT,
YOU AND MRS. BONNER
WILL NOT SEE OLYMPIA?

I'M AFRAID NOT.

THE STADIUM? THE GROVE?
GOOD NIGHT, MR. LOGAN.

GOOD NIGHT.

OH, MURRAY!

[SOBBING]

MY DARLING,
LET THEM THINK
WHATEVER THEY WANT.

THIS IS ALL WE HAVE

FOR THE REST
OF OUR LIVES.

I LOVE YOU, MURRAY.

I WAS AFRAID
IT MIGHT BE TRUE--

THAT I WAS
INCAPABLE OF LOVING.

IT ISN'T TRUE, IS IT?

OH...

LOOK, THE LIGHT
SEEMS TO BE RISING
OUT OF THE EARTH.

MM-HMM.
ON THE ISLANDS,

THE TOP
OF THE BUILDINGS

CATCH
THE FIRST LIGHT,

AND THE WATER'S
STILL DARK.

IN A LITTLE WHILE,
IT TURNS THE COLOR
OF WINE.

OUR HOUSE IS
ON TOP OF A HILL.

WE HAVE A TERRACE
LOOKING OUT
ON THE SEA.

THAT'S WHERE
WE'LL HAVE LUNCH.

WE'LL HAVE RETSINA,
STUFFED VINE LEAVES,

LAMB, HONEY CAKE,
AND PICKLED
BEKAFICO.

HA HA! PICKLED WHAT?

BEKAFICO.
IT'S A SMALL BIRD

THAT YOU CRUNCH
TO BITS

WITH YOUR TEETH.

IT SOUNDS AWFUL.

OR YOU CAN LIVE
ON A STEADY DIET
OF OLIVES AND OUZO.

YOU KNOW,
IT'S NOT TRUE

THAT THIS IS
ALL WE HAVE

FOR THE REST
OF OUR LIVES.

MURRAY?

HMM?

MURRAY, HAVE YOU
EVER THOUGHT

WHAT IT WOULD BE LIKE
LIVING WITH ME,

NEVER KNOWING
FROM DAY TO DAY

WHEN I'LL
SUDDENLY BE SICK?

I BELIEVE
I CAN MAKE YOU WELL.

SOMETIMES
WE'RE LUCKY ENOUGH

TO HAVE
A SECOND CHANCE.

TRUST ME, CHRISTINE.

I LOVE YOU, MURRAY.

[COUGHING]

IS MRS. BONNER'S
LUGGAGE DOWN YET?

MRS. BONNER LEFT FOR ATHENS
TWO HOURS AGO, SIR.

SHE--SHE--SHE LEFT?

A LADY CAME FOR HER--
AN AMERICAN LADY.

DID SHE LEAVE
A MESSAGE FOR ME?

NO, SIR,
NO MESSAGE.

THANK YOU.

[SPEAKING GREEK]

HA HA HA!

START BACK NOW,
ANDREAS.

MRS. BONNER?

MRS. BONNER'S
NOT COMING.

BUT IS SHE--

SHE HAD TO LEAVE
EARLIER THAN EXPECTED.
WELL, COME ON.

YES, SIR.

[CAR HORN HONKING]

Sybil: IT'S ALL RIGHT
IF SHE'S IN LOVE WITH YOU,

BUT YOU'D BE AN IDIOT
TO FALL IN LOVE WITH HER.

Man: TO ME, SHE'S JUST
A SPOILED LITTLE EGOTIST

USING HER POOR HEALTH
AND HER MONEY
TO GET HER OWN WAY.

Sam: SHE'S IMMATURE.
SHE DOESN'T KNOW HER OWN MIND.

Man: OH, MR. LOGAN,

I HAVE A MESSAGE
FOR YOU, SIR.

YOU ARE TO GO
TO SUITE 317, PLEASE.

THANK YOU. WILL YOU
GET SOMEBODY
TO GET MY BAGS?

VERY GOOD, SIR.

MAY I HAVE MY KEY,
PLEASE?

CERTAINLY.

THANK YOU.

COME IN.

MR. LOGAN, WE'VE
BEEN EXPECTING YOU.
SAM'S HERE.

WHERE IS HE?

HE'LL SEE YOU LATER
DOWNSTAIRS.

HE'S IN
WITH CHRISTINE.

IT SEEMS
YOU LET HER CATCH
A SEVERE CHILL.

LUCKILY, SHE HAD
THE GOOD SENSE

TO CALL ME
FROM OLYMPIA
THIS MORNING

AND HAVE ME
BRING HER HERE.

SHE WANTED SAM
TO TAKE HER HOME
TO AMERICA TONIGHT.

MRS. GELLERT,
WHAT ARE YOU UP TO?

UP TO? I'M NOT
UP TO ANYTHING.

IT'S SIMPLY THIS:
I KNOW MY DAUGHTER.

TAKE MY ADVICE, MR. LOGAN.
FORGET ABOUT HER.

YOU WOULDN'T BE
ANY USE TO HER.

WHAT SHE NEEDS IS
EXACTLY WHAT'S SHE'S GOT:

A SLAVE LIKE SAM!

[DOOR CLOSES]

MURRAY.

OH, SAM.

I'VE ONLY GOT
A COUPLE OF MINUTES,
FELLA.

THE DOCTOR JUST LEFT,
AND I DON'T WANT HER
TO BE BY HERSELF.

WHAT DID HE SAY?

WELL, DOCTORS
ARE DOCTORS
THE WORLD OVER--

ALWAYS SMILING,
ALWAYS CHEERFUL.

WELL, I GUESS
I'LL HAVE A DRINK.

NO, I BETTER NOT.

I DON'T REALLY WANT ONE,
AND SHE MIGHT NEED ME.

SHE'S, UM,
RUNNING A FEVER--

103.

LOOK, UH, MURRAY,
I JUST WANT YOU
TO KNOW

HOW SORRY I AM

ABOUT SYBIL
AND THE WHOLE MESS.

I NEVER READ
SUCH ROTTEN LIES
IN MY LIFE.

WELL, I BETTER
GET BACK UPSTAIRS.

NONE OF THAT'S
IMPORTANT NOW.

WE'LL TALK LATER,
FELLA. I'LL GIVE YOU
A RING.

ALL RIGHT.

[RINGING]

YES.

I HAD ANOTHER MAN
CHECK HER.

WELL, THEY
BROUGHT HER HERE.

IT LOOKS LIKE
IT'S DEVELOPING
INTO PNEUMONIA.

WELL, WE'LL JUST
HAVE TO KEEP

OUR FINGERS
CROSSED, FELLA.

THAT'S ALL
WE CAN DO.

I'D RATHER
YOU DIDN'T.

UM, LISTEN, UH,
THEY WANT TO TALK
TO ME.

I'LL KEEP YOU
POSTED.

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

HELLO?

MR. BONNER
JUST TELEPHONED
FROM THE HOSPITAL.

HE WISHES YOU
TO COME

AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
YES.

I'M LOOKING
FOR MR. BONNER.

MR. BONNER'S
IN THE WAITING ROOM
OVER THERE.

SAM?

HOW IS SHE?

SHE ISN'T EVEN
PUTTING UP A FIGHT.

I GOT
THE BEST DAMN DOCTORS

IN THE COUNTRY
ON THE CASE,

AND THEY CAN'T DO A THING--
NOT A THING.

SHE USED TO FIGHT BACK,

BUT NOT THIS TIME--
NOT NOW.

I CAN'T GET THROUGH
TO HER AT ALL.

SHE ASKED
TO SEE YOU.

I'LL SHOW YOU
HOW TO GET THERE.

WHEN CHRISTINE
WAS DELIRIOUS,
SHE TALKED ABOUT YOU.

I'D GO AWAY
SO AS NOT TO HEAR.

SHE THOUGHT
YOU WERE WITH HER.

SHE KEPT CALLING
YOUR NAME.

I NEVER FLATTERED MYSELF
THAT CHRISTINE LOVED ME,

BUT I LOVED HER
SO MUCH

IT DIDN'T MATTER
MOST OF THE TIME.

THIRD.

IF I'D EVER STOPPED
TO THINK THINGS OUT,

I'M SURE
I'D HAVE GUESSED

THAT SHE'D HAVE TO
LOVE SOMEONE SOMEDAY.

WELL, IT HAPPENED
TO BE YOU.

I DON'T THINK CHRISTINE
WOULD HAVE LEFT ME
BECAUSE OF IT,

SO I DON'T HOLD THAT
AGAINST YOU.

BUT WHY IN GOD'S NAME
COULDN'T YOU HAVE LOOKED
AFTER HER PROPERLY?

MOTHER SPOKE
TO THAT SYRIAN DOCTOR
UP IN DELPHI.

SAID THAT HE WARNED YOU
ABOUT THE ROAD

AND HOW DANGEROUS
IT WOULD BE FOR HER.

WHY DIDN'T YOU
LISTEN TO HIM?

WHY THE HELL DID YOU
TAKE THE CHANCE?

SAM, I'VE BEEN
MEANING--

OH, WHAT'S THE GOOD
OF TALKING?

IT'S DONE--FINISHED.

NOTHING'S GOING TO
BRING HER BACK NOW.

BUT IF IT HADN'T
BEEN FOR YOU,

I WOULDN'T HAVE
LOST HER.

THAT'S SOMETHING
I'LL NEVER FORGIVE YOU FOR.

NURSE, THIS IS
MR. LOGAN.

[AIR HISSING]

[HISSING STOPS]

Murray.

I didn't...

I DIDN'T WANT YOU
TO...

HAVE TO GO
THROUGH THIS...

EVER.

I HATE HAVING...

YOU SEE ME
LIKE THIS.

Christine.

NO.

NO, MURRAY.

DON'T BLAME
YOURSELF...

FOR ANYTHING.

I WANTED LIFE.

I FOUND IT.

MURRAY, DO...

WHAT WE WOULD HAVE
DONE TOGETHER...

WILL YOU?

WILL YOU, MURRAY?

YES.

IS ONE HAPPIER,
DO YOU THINK,

WITH 10 YEARS
OF HAPPINESS

THAN IF ONE HAS
10 MINUTES

OR 10 DAYS?

I DON'T KNOW.
I'VE NEVER HAD
THE 10 YEARS.

BECAUSE I'VE
NEVER BEEN HAPPIER
IN MY WHOLE LIFE.

ME, TOO.

IT MUST BE LIKE THIS
ON YOUR ISLAND.
