1:05:01
You've seen Job?
1:05:03
- You mean, the way I've been seeing him?
- No.

1:05:06
I've really seen him.
1:05:08
- But you couldn't have. Job's in Germany.
- No, he isn't. He's here in New York.

1:05:12
I saw him in the park. He was
on a bench, sunning himself.

1:05:15
Job never sunned himself in his life.
1:05:18
And if he is here, why hasn't he let
his own daughter know?

1:05:21
When you see him you'll understand.
1:05:24
Fanny, I had the greatest difficulty
getting anything out of him.

1:05:27
- But bit by bit...
- Well, must I hear about it?

1:05:30
Well, who else, if not you?
Job's a broken man.

1:05:33
He's been in a concentration camp.
You'd hardly recognize him.

1:05:37
That isn't all. He's poor.
1:05:40
They've taken everything away from him.
He hasn't got a cent.

1:05:43
Job, poor? That's hard to believe.
1:05:48
- What should I do about it?
- There's no question of what you should do.

1:05:52
Job has no claim,
you have no obligation.

1:05:55
You should remember that this house,
everything in it, every stitch on your back...

1:05:59
...is yours because of his generosity.
1:06:01
Well, it was very easy for him
to be generous when he was so rich.

1:06:05
Legally, he didn't have to give you
one-tenth of what he insisted you have.

1:06:09
- And now...
- And now you think it's unfair...

1:06:12
...that I'm so well off and he's so poor?
- Exactly. It is unfair.

1:06:17
- Then what do you suggest?
- I suggest that you talk over...

1:06:20
...how much you're willing
to give him back.

1:06:23
Okay. I'll send for my lawyers
and we'll talk it over.

1:06:26
No lawyers, Fanny. Make it a warm thing.
Make it a kind thing.

1:06:30
Talk it over with Job.
1:06:32
You mean... I must see Job myself?
1:06:35
Yes. He's downstairs.
1:06:39
He's downstairs?
1:06:42
- Now?
- Yes.

1:06:49
- George.
- Go down and see him.

1:06:56
Never.
1:06:58
- Do you mean to tell me...?
- Georgie, look at me.
