1:07:01
No.
1:07:03
There's an ice cream
parlor in The Village
with a jukebox.
1:07:06
Yeah?
And he used to
stand outside,
1:07:09
and every time I'd walk by,
he'd whistle!
No kidding!
1:07:13
But first I pretended he
wasn't on earth.
Yeah?
1:07:17
But finally I had to laugh,
and he followed me.
1:07:20
And we started to talk.
1:07:22
He's cute.
Really cute.
1:07:25
Is he a colored boy?
1:07:27
Why did you ask that?
Well, I don't know.
1:07:30
It just slipped out.
It was the first thing
you thought of.
1:07:33
I told you,
it just slipped out!
Well, he's white.
1:07:36
And if he ever finds out
about me, I'll kill myself.
But why?
1:07:41
Because I'm white too.
And if I have to be colored,
then I want to die.
1:07:45
What are you saying?
I wanna have
a chance in life.
1:07:47
I don't wanna have to
come through back doors,
feel lower than other people,
1:07:51
or apologize
for my mother's color.
Don't say that!
1:07:54
She can't help her color,
but I can.
1:07:57
And I will.
1:07:59
But we've always
talked things over.
1:08:01
You never told me
this before.
1:08:04
1:08:08
Because I've never had
a boyfriend before.
1:08:12
Because he wants to
marry me someday.
1:08:16
A white boy.
Me.
1:08:19
But how do you think
he'd feel, or his folks,
with a black in-law?
1:08:24
What do you think people
would say where we lived
if they knew my mother...
1:08:28
They'd spit at me.
And my children.
1:08:32
Sarah Jane,
you know that's not true!
It is.
1:08:34
That's why
he mustn't know her.
1:08:37
I don't want anybody
to know her.
1:08:39
What if he comes here?
He doesn't even know
where I live.
1:08:43
I pretend I'm a...
I'm a rich girl
with strict parents.
1:08:46
Well, he's bound
to find out...
How?
1:08:50
I'm going to be everything
he thinks I am.
1:08:53
I look it, and that's
all that matters.
1:08:56
And you're not to say
anything either.
I won't. You know I won't.
