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.
1:42:02
- Nothing in the world will make me say that.
- Addison wants me to play it.
1:42:07
- Over my dead body.
- That won't be necessary.
1:42:10
Addison knows how Margo
happened to miss that performance,
1:42:13
how I happened to know she'd miss it
in time to notify every paper in town.
1:42:19
It's quite a story.
Addison could make quite a thing of it.
1:42:22
Imagine how snide and vicious he could get,
and still tell nothing but the truth.
1:42:26
I had a time persuading him.
1:42:30
You better sit down. You look a bit wobbly.
1:42:37
If I play Cora, Addison will never
tell what happened, in or out of print.
1:42:42
A simple exchange of favours.
1:42:45
I'm so happy I can do something
for you at long last.
1:42:50
Your friendship with Margo,
1:42:53
your deep, close friendship.
1:42:55
What would happen to it if she knewthe
cheap trick you played on her for my benefit?
