M AUR ICE : They weren't young,
you know -- far from it.
:02:41
My sister was, what?
26, I think.
:02:44
Tom the same.
:02:46
[ I ndistinct taIking continues ]
:02:48
Maurice!
:02:50
Catch !
:02:52
I used to drive her
up to Oxford to see him.
:02:55
Tom was one of
Bertrand RusseII's
:02:57
graduate students.
:02:59
I can't remember how
they first met, exactIy.
:03:02
There wasn't much
of a courtship --
:03:04
a few months at most.
:03:05
WeII, then, romance.
:03:09
I think Vivie just
swept him off his feet.
:03:15
Tom was an American,
you know.
:03:17
Though you might not
have guessed it,
:03:19
he tried to hard to be
more EngIish than the EngIish.
:03:22
Dressed Iike an EngIishman,
:03:24
tried terribIy hard
to sound Iike one of us.
:03:27
Don't think he ever quite
got the hang of it.
:03:30
M ind you,
he was very reserved.
:03:33
I'm sure he thought
our famiIy, the Haigh-Woods,
:03:36
was just what he needed --
sIeepy, oId, and respectabIe.
:03:40
Poor Vivienne
misunderstood him compIeteIy.
:03:43
She thought Tom was
going to rescue her
:03:45
from tight IittIe EngIand.
:03:48
Hey, how about
over there -- Iook.
:03:51
- [ Tires screech ]
- For God's sake, Viv!
:03:52
ActuaIIy, I think
tight IittIe EngIand
:03:55
was just what Tom wanted.
