1:40:02
I'll give you some pleasant news.
1:40:04
I've been told off
in no uncertain terms, all over town.
1:40:08
Miss Channing should be happy to hear that.
1:40:11
To know how Ioyal her friends are,
1:40:14
how much more Ioyal than
she had a right to expect me to be.
1:40:18
- Eve, don't cry.
- I'm not crying.
1:40:22
Tell me, how did your luncheon
turn out with the man from Hollywood?
1:40:26
Some vague promises of a test. If a particular
part should come along, one of those things.
1:40:32
- But the raves aboutyour performance...
- An understudy's performance.
1:40:36
Well, I think you're painting
the picture a little blacker than it is, really.
1:40:41
Don't underestimate him.
You have a powerful friend in Addison.
1:40:45
He's not my friend. You were my friends.
1:40:47
- He can help you.
- I wish I'd never met him.
1:40:50
I'd like him to be dead.
1:40:52
I want my friends back.
1:40:55
Eve... I don't think
you meant to cause unhappiness.
1:41:00
But you did. More to yourself perhaps,
as it turned out, than to anyone else.
1:41:04
- I'll never get over it.
- Yes, you will.
1:41:07
You theatre people always do.
Nothing is for ever in the theatre.
1:41:12
Whatever it is, it's here, it flares up, burns hot,
1:41:16
and it's gone.
1:41:18
- I wish I could believe that.
- Give yourself time.
1:41:22
Don't worry too much
about what people think.
1:41:25
You're very young and very talented.
1:41:28
And, believe it or not,
if there's anything I can do...
1:41:33
There is something.
1:41:37
- I think I know.
- Something most importantyou can do.
1:41:42
You wanna play Cora. You want me
to tell Lloyd I think you should play it.
1:41:46
If you told him so, he'd give me
the part. He said he would.
1:41:49
After all you've said. Don'tyou know
that part was written for Margo?
1:41:54
It might've been 15 years ago.
It's my part now.
1:41:57
- You talk just as Addison said you did.
- Cora is my part. You've got to tell Lloyd.
