2:00:05
- Then say so.
- Yes, Addison.
2:00:08
And you realise and you agree
how completely you belong to me?
2:00:12
Yes, Addison.
2:00:15
Then take your nap,
and good luck for tonight.
2:00:23
I won't play tonight.
2:00:25
I couldn't. Not possibly. I couldn't go on.
2:00:29
"Couldn't go on"?
You'll give the performance of your life.
2:00:51
And she gave the performance of her life.
2:00:54
And it was a night to remember, that night.
2:01:07
Honoured members of
the Sarah Siddons Society,
2:01:10
distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen.
2:01:14
What is there for me to say?
2:01:17
Everything wise and witty
has long since been said
2:01:20
by minds more mature
and talents far greater than mine.
2:01:24
For me to thank you as equals
would be presumptuous.
2:01:28
I am an apprentice in the theatre,
2:01:30
and have much to learn from all of you.
2:01:33
Let me say only that I am proud and happy,
2:01:38
and that I regard this great honour
2:01:41
not so much as an award
for what I have achieved,
2:01:44
but as a standard to hold against
what I have yet to accomplish.
2:01:49
And, further, that I regard it
as bestowed upon me only in part.
2:01:55
The larger share belongs
to my friends in the theatre,
