Yeah.

- Compliments to women about looks.

I never met a dame didn't know she was
good-looking or not without being told.

And some of them give themselves
credit for more than they've got.

who told me, "I'm the glamorous type

I says, "So what?"

- She didn't say nothing.

- Did it end the romance?

You're simple,
straightforward and honest.
390

A little bit on the primitive side,
I should think.

- To lay her cards on the table.

In the state of Louisiana we got here
what's known as the Napoleonic Code.
409
00:23:38,721 --> 00:23:42,769
Which says, what belongs to the wife
belongs to the husband and vice versa.

an impressive judicial air.

sister, I would get ideas about you.

- Don't play so dumb. You know what.

All right. Cards on the table.

a woman's charm is 50 percent illusion.

But when a thing is important
I tell the truth.
416
00:24:07,961 --> 00:24:09,402
And this is the truth:

anyone else on earth as long as I lived.

back of that little boy's mind of yours?

...all from one boy. Give those back.
- I'm just gonna have a look.

- Now, don't pull that stuff.

- That must have been what happened.

What's the rest of the papers?

1166
01:07:44,431 --> 01:07:48,632
- My mother is sick, and--
- Oh, I'm sorry to hear it. Badly?
1167
01:07:48,951 --> 01:07:50,795
She won't live long...
1168
01:07:50,952 --> 01:07:54,400
...maybe just a few months,
and she worries because I'm not settled.
1169
01:07:54,551 --> 01:07:57,355
She wants to see me
settled down before she...
1170
01:08:00,711 --> 01:08:03,712
You love her very much, don't you?
1171
01:08:05,991 --> 01:08:09,276
You'll be lonely when she passes on,
won't you?
1172
01:08:13,191 --> 01:08:15,472
I know what that means.
1173
01:08:17,952 --> 01:08:19,632
To be lonely?
1174
01:08:20,751 --> 01:08:22,955
I loved someone once.
1175
01:08:23,111 --> 01:08:25,872
And the person I loved, I lost.

Dead?
1177
01:08:32,071 --> 01:08:33,872
He was a boy.
1178
01:08:34,631 --> 01:08:37,752
Just a boy,
when I was a very young girl.
1179
01:08:38,431 --> 01:08:41,192
When I was 16, I made the discovery:
1180
01:08:41,351 --> 01:08:42,911
Love.
1181
01:08:43,391 --> 01:08:45,191
All at once, and much...
1182
01:08:45,351 --> 01:08:47,632
...much too completely.
1183
01:08:47,911 --> 01:08:51,239
It was like you suddenly turned
a blinding light...
1184
01:08:51,391 --> 01:08:55,036
...on something that had
always been half in shadow.
1185
01:08:55,391 --> 01:08:58,360
That's how it struck the world for me.
1186
01:08:58,671 --> 01:09:00,591
But I was unlucky.
1187
01:09:00,752 --> 01:09:02,356
Deluded.
1188
01:09:03,311 --> 01:09:05,832
There was something about the boy.
1189
01:09:05,991 --> 01:09:08,555
A nervousness, a tenderness...
1190
01:09:08,712 --> 01:09:10,392
...an uncertainty.
1191
01:09:10,551 --> 01:09:12,635
And I didn't understand.
1192
01:09:13,071 --> 01:09:17,076
I didn't understand why this boy,
who wrote poetry...
1193
01:09:17,231 --> 01:09:19,631
...didn't seem able to do anything else.
1194
01:09:19,791 --> 01:09:21,755
He lost every job.

...unendurably.

At night I pretended to sleep.

I heard him crying.

Crying.
1203
01:09:43,911 --> 01:09:46,792

01:10:15,631 --> 01:10:19,200
...we drove out to a place
called Moon Lake Casino.
1213
01:10:19,751 --> 01:10:22,436
We danced the Varsouviana.
1214
01:10:22,631 --> 01:10:26,636
Suddenly, in the middle of the dance,
the boy I married broke away from me...
1215
01:10:26,791 --> 01:10:28,471
...and ran out of the casino.
1216
01:10:28,671 --> 01:10:30,232
A few minutes later...
1217
01:10:30,391 --> 01:10:31,395

...and fired.
1225
01:10:56,631 --> 01:10:58,715
It was because...
1226
01:10:58,911 --> 01:11:00,875
...on the dance floor...
1227
01:11:01,111 --> 01:11:04,155

BLANCHE [SINGING]:
Without your love
1274
01:14:09,790 --> 01:14:12,671
It's a honky-tonk parade
1275
01:14:14,590 --> 01:14:17,351
So she moved to a hotel
called the Flamingo...
1276
01:14:17,510 --> 01:14:19,758
...which is a second-class hotel...
1277
01:14:19,910 --> 01:14:21,677
...and has the advantages...
1278
01:14:21,830 --> 01:14:25,671
...of not interfering with the private
and social life of the personalities there.
1279
01:14:25,830 --> 01:14:28,711
Now, the Flamingo is used to
all kinds of goings on.
1280
01:14:28,870 --> 01:14:33,191
But the management of the Flamingo
was impressed by Dame Blanche.
1281
01:14:33,350 --> 01:14:35,794
In fact, they were so impressed
that they requested her...

...to turn in her room key
for permanently.

Baby, listen. I checked on every story.
1288
01:15:00,030 --> 01:15:03,554
The trouble was she couldn't
put on her act any more in Auriol...
1289
01:15:03,710 --> 01:15:04,998
...because they wised up.
1290

then she goes on to another one.

and the same old hooey.

And as time went by,
she became the town character...

...regarded not just as different,
but downright loco and nuts...

...before the spring term ended.

And, now, I hate to tell you the reason
that step was taken.

A 17-year-old kid
she got mixed up with.
1301
01:15:39,430 --> 01:15:41,035
The boy's dad learned about it...
1302
01:15:41,190 --> 01:15:43,710
...and he got in touch
with the high school superintendent.
1303

a bottle of beer with his teeth.

And that was all he could do.
He was just a human bottle-opener.

Then one time at a wedding party,
he broke his front teeth right off.
1722

And then after that,
he was so ashamed of himself...

when company came.

have such a thing as privacy once more...

of Mr. Mitchell. He came here tonight.

01:42:15,584 --> 01:42:19,065
He dared to come in his work clothes to
repeat slander, vicious stories from you.
1757
01:42:19,223 --> 01:42:20,991
I gave him his walking papers.
1758
01:42:21,904 --> 01:42:26,268
But then he returned. He returned with
a box of roses to beg my forgiveness.
1759
01:42:26,424 --> 01:42:28,585
He implored my forgiveness.
1760
01:42:28,984 --> 01:42:32,268
But some things are not forgiveable.
1761
01:42:33,944 --> 01:42:37,752
Deliberate cruelty is not forgiveable!
1762
01:42:37,904 --> 01:42:40,544
It is one unforgivable thing,
in my opinion...

...and the one thing
of which I have never...
1764

...never been guilty.
1765
01:42:44,784 --> 01:42:47,904
So I said to him, "Thank you.
1766
01:42:48,064 --> 01:42:51,304
It was foolish of me to think that
we could adapt ourselves to each other.
1767

our backgrounds are incompatible.

roses, because I know where he is.
