You're a kid of 19.
:38:06
You're 19 and l'm 47....
:38:09
l'm almost 40.
:38:14
You'll be telling me next l'm not
old enough to know the facts of life.
:38:17
You don't. Not the real facts.
:38:20
You can't.
Everything has been too easy for you.
:38:25
You don't know what it means
to be up against it.
:38:29
Keep fighting them every second.
:38:31
To pull yourself up, hand over hand...
:38:34
while they're waiting with a knife
to cut the rope.
:38:39
l'm not through yet. l'll show them.
:38:43
lf they think l'm finished....
:38:46
Larry, make sense.
What's that got to do with our love?
:38:50
Love.
:38:57
You want to know the truth, Paula?
l love you.
:39:02
As much as l can love any woman.
:39:05
But it isn't real love anymore.
:39:07
There have been too many.
l've been in love a hundred times.
:39:11
l've had three wives.
:39:14
- You want to know about them?
- No.
:39:19
There was Violet.
She was a vaudeville hoofer.
:39:24
Rooming houses, dirty kimonos,
fried-egg sandwiches.
:39:30
We fought like wildcats.
Then l broke into pictures and l left her.
:39:36
Then l married Edith.
:39:38
She was crazy about my profile.
Always kept talking about it.
:39:42
She was society.
:39:45
We were happy for about six months.
:39:48
Then Hollywood dazzled her.
You know what happened.
:39:52
Out in her car one night,
drunk as the devil...
:39:56
over the cliff.
:39:58
Were you in love with her?
