1:10:00
And B: You are just like me.
Some days l wake up--

1:10:04
Will you please stop telling me
how to run my life...

1:10:07
...for a couple of minutes?
1:10:10
lsn't it enough that you were right?
1:10:13
You feel sorry for yourself for having
a monster of a mother like me.

1:10:18
Everything about you says,
''See what you did?''

1:10:21
l never said ''monster.''
1:10:22
You don't say it, but you feel it.
1:10:25
Somehow you lay the entire blame
for your drug-taking on me.

1:10:28
l do not. l do not, Mother.
1:10:30
l took the drugs, nobody made me.
1:10:34
Go ahead and say it.
You think l'm an alcoholic.

1:10:42
Okay.
1:10:44
l think you're an alcoholic.
1:10:50
Maybe l was an alcoholic
when you were a teenager...

1:10:54
...but l had a breakdown when my
marriage failed and l lost my money.

1:10:58
That's when l started taking drugs.
1:11:01
l got over it. Now l just
drink like an lrish person.

1:11:04
You drink to relax.
You just enjoy your wine.

1:11:08
l know, you've told me.
You don't want me to be a singer.

1:11:12
You're the singer.
You're the performer.

1:11:15
l can't possibly compete with you.
What if somebody won?

1:11:21
You want me to do well...
1:11:23
...just not better than you.
1:11:35
You are jealous because l can drink
and you can't take drugs any longer.

1:11:39
-l can handle it and you can't.
-Handle it? How do you handle it?

1:11:43
My drinking does not
interfere with my work.

1:11:46
l wish my mother had been as concerned
about me when l was a little girl!

1:11:51
Will you tell me what awful thing
l did to you when you were a child?

1:11:56
-You want to know?
-Tell me!

1:11:58
Fine. From the time l was 9
you gave me sleeping pills!
