1:53:00
"We are"?
1:53:02
Lloyd and I.
1:53:05
I find it odd that Karen
isn't here for the opening.
1:53:08
- Addison...
- She was always so devoted to Lloyd.
1:53:10
- One would think only death could keep her...
- Addison...
1:53:14
I said this would be a night to remember,
that it would bring me all I ever wanted.
1:53:21
Something about an old road ending
and a new one starting, all paved with stars.
1:53:25
I didn't mean just the theatre.
1:53:28
What else?
1:53:32
Lloyd Richards.
1:53:35
He's going to leave Karen.
We're going to be married.
1:53:40
So that's it. Lloyd.
1:53:43
Still just the theatre, after all.
1:53:45
It's nothing of the kind.
1:53:47
Lloyd loves me. I love him.
1:53:50
I know nothing of Lloyd's loves. I leave
those to Louisa May Alcott. But I know you.
1:53:54
- I'm in love with Lloyd.
- He is a commercially successful playwright.
1:53:59
- You have no right to say that.
- And, artistically, very promising.
1:54:03
Eve, dear, this is Addison.
1:54:07
Oh, Addison, won't it be just perfect?
1:54:09
Lloyd and I.
There's no telling howfar we can go.
1:54:13
He'll write great plays for me.
I'll make them great.
1:54:16
You're the only one who knows,
except Lloyd and me.
1:54:19
- And Karen.
- She doesn't know.
1:54:21
- She knows enough not to be here.
- But not all of it.
1:54:24
- Not that Lloyd and I are gonna be married.
- I see.
1:54:28
And when was this unholy alliance joined?
1:54:31
We decided night before last,
before we came up here.
1:54:34
I trust the setting was properly romantic.
1:54:37
Lights on dimmers
and gypsy violins offstage.
1:54:41
The setting wasn't romantic,
1:54:43
but Lloyd was.
1:54:46
He woke me up at three o'clock
in the morning, banging on my door.
1:54:49
He couldn't sleep, he said. He'd left Karen.
1:54:52
Couldn't go on with the play or anything
else until I promised to marry him.
1:54:57
We sat and talked until it was light.
