:59:03
...is that you're very young.
:59:04
Monsieur Komarovsky,
I hope I don't offend you.
:59:07
Do people improve with age?
:59:10
They grow a little more tolerant.
:59:11
Because they have more
to tolerate in themselves.
:59:14
If people don't marry young,
what do they bring to their marriage?
:59:17
A little experience.
:59:20
I'm 26. My mother died, needlessly,
when I was eight.
:59:24
My father died in prison.
I have fended for myself.
:59:27
I've worked my way
through higher school and university.
:59:30
I am familiar with things
that you can hardly guess at.
:59:33
All this is an experience
of a kind, certainly.
:59:37
I've no amorous experience,
if that's what you mean.
:59:39
None whatever. Lara's 17.
That speaks for itself.
:59:44
You probably find this situation comic.
We don't.
:59:47
We're going to be married next year.
:59:57
I hope I haven't offended you
by speaking plainly.
1:00:00
Not at all. Admirable.
1:00:10
A young crusader.
1:00:11
Oh, he's not--
1:00:13
He's a very fine young man.
That's obvious.
1:00:17
You're very generous,
Monsieur Komarovsky.
1:00:23
Larissa, I want to talk to you.
1:00:34
Monsieur Komarovsky, will you--
1:00:37
I beg you.
1:00:39
Drop this affectation of addressing me
as "Monsieur Komarovsky"!
1:00:42
Under the circumstances,
I find it rather ridiculous.
1:00:46
Lara, I am determined to save you
from a dreadful error.
1:00:50
There are two kinds of men, and only two.
And that young man is one kind.
1:00:54
He is high-minded. He is pure.
1:00:57
He is the kind of man that the world
pretends to look up to and despises.
