1:02:02
This really is exciting for me, Georg.
Being here with you.
1:02:06
Trees, lakes,
you've seen them before.
1:02:09
That is not what I mean,
and you know it.
1:02:12
-You mean me? I'm exciting?
-Is that so impossible?
1:02:16
No, just highly improbable.
1:02:19
-There you go, running yourself down.
-Well, I'm a dangerous driver.
1:02:26
You're much less of a riddle
when I see you here, Georg.
1:02:30
-In my natural habitat?
-Yes, exactly.
1:02:33
Are you saying that I'm more
at home. . .
1:02:35
. . .among the birds and the flowers
and the wind that moves. . .
1:02:40
. . .through the trees
like a restless sea?
1:02:42
How poetic.
1:02:44
Yes, it was rather, wasn't it?
1:02:46
More at home here than in Vienna
in all your glittering salons. . .
1:02:52
. . .gossiping gaily with bores I
detest, soaking myself in champagne. . .
1:02:56
. . .stumbling about to waltzes
by Strausses I can't even remember?
1:03:00
-Is that what you're saying?
-Yes.
1:03:02
Now whatever gave you that idea?
1:03:08
Oh, I do like it here, Georg.
It's so lovely and peaceful.
1:03:12
How can you leave it so often?
1:03:14
Oh, pretending to be madly active,
I suppose.
1:03:17
Activity suggests a life
filled with purpose.
1:03:21
Could it be running away
from memories?
1:03:26
Or perhaps just searching
for a reason to stay.
1:03:30
I hope that's why you've been
coming to Vienna so often.
1:03:34
-Were there other distractions?
-I'd hardly call you a distraction.
1:03:39
Well, what would you call me, Georg?
1:03:43
Lovely. . .
1:03:46
. . .charming, witty, graceful,
the perfect hostess. . .
1:03:48
. . .and, you're going to hate me
for this. . .
1:03:51
. . .in a way, my savior.
1:03:54
Oh, how unromantic.
1:03:56
I'd be an ungrateful wretch
if I didn't say. . .
1:03:58
. . .that you brought some meaning back
into my life.
