:36:05
Smithy, I wonder if you were a writer
before you...
:36:09
- Before the war.
- Yes, I've wondered that, too.
:36:12
Aren't you terribly curious?
About the past, I mean?
:36:15
Well, I'd like to know,
but the present's looking up.
:36:18
Supposing it all
came back to you suddenly...
:36:20
and it was awfully grand,
with all sorts of wonderful people?
:36:23
I wouldn't mind a bit.
:36:25
You might even be married, Smithy.
Who knows?
:36:27
Nonsense.
:36:30
- How can you be so sure?
- Well, because...
:36:35
Paula, I wonder
if I could make a living at writing.
:36:39
Of course you could.
:36:40
Make a regular income, be independent.
:36:46
Why not?
:36:48
And I'm getting quite good at typewriting.
:36:58
It's a lot of nerve, but...
:37:04
I've fallen in love with you.
:37:10
No, you haven't.
You're just being a gentleman.
:37:12
No. I'm nothing of the sort.
:37:15
I'm asking you to marry me...
:37:17
on a check for two guineas.
:37:22
Smithy, don't ask me, please.
:37:24
I might take you up on it.
I'm just that shameless.
:37:27
Paula.
:37:28
I've run after you from the very beginning.
You know I have.
:37:31
I've never let you out of my sight
since I first saw you in that little shop.
:37:35
- Never do it, Paula.
- What?
:37:37
Never leave me out of your sight.
Never again.
:37:44
Smithy, you do mean it?
:37:46
You do want it? Really?
:37:49
More than anything else in the world.
:37:52
My life began with you.
:37:56
I can't imagine a future without you.
