What are you doing?
Go back to sleep.
What are you doing?
It's still dark in here.
No, it's not.
This light is fantastic.
I'm awake.
You can't take pictures of me
asleep if I'm awake, right?
Did you dream again?
Huh?
Did you have a bad dream?
Hey, suze...
Could you listen to something
for a minute?
Now?
I'm not sure I really like it.
Anne, I'm going to work
in five minutes.
I know, but it's important.
Please.
OK, go ahead.
"I have a war with my mother.
"She's on her side.
"It has become clear
that I'm on mine.
"I am pale beside her.
"Her hair is black,
mine blonde.
"Her skin is red,
mine off-white.
"She looks like a gypsy,
and she has a secret sword.
"This war could be
the longest war in history,
"maybe longer than
100 hundred years.
"With that in mind,
I am polite.
"I do not fight this war.
"My strategy is disengagement.
I will colonize Venus. "
Did you ever fight with your mother?
No.
Did your parents ever argue?
Never.
Were you surprised
when they got divorced?
Not really. They never talked
to each other either.
You don't like it.
What don't you like about it?
I don't know...
Something. I don't know.
I like what you did
with the last one better.
Anne, I got to go.
I'm going to be late.
OK.
Listen, we'll talk
about it later, all right?
OK. Goodbye.
I mean it. We will.
OK.
Could we have
the prayer book, please?
OK.
Rabbi, why don't you try
shaking hands?
Why don't you smile, Jeffrey?
Um...
Jeffrey, what's green
and flies over Poland?
Peter Panski.
OK, great.
Thank you so much, rabbi.
My pleasure, Mrs. Hinkleman.
Thank the rabbi, Jeffrey.
Thank you.
You did very well, Jeffrey.
We've got a wedding we've got to
go to next week on Long Island.
Yeah?
I can't wait.
What's a wrench?
What?
What's a wrench?
A wrench?
I don't know.
It's a place where Jewish cowboys go.
Bye.
Bye.
No, red.
Red?
Oh, yeah.
It'll be fabulous. Trust me.
OK.
You sure?
Oh, yeah. It'll be great.
Oh, boy,
we can get a hammock.
I could use this as my darkroom.
Or it could be another bedroom.
Do you think
we should have an opening?
You think he'll come?
Oh, Suze, I really want you
to meet Martin.
Oh, he can come.
We'll invite him, too.
Susan, I really like him.
I think I almost might love him.
Wait a minute.
You think... You almost...
Might... love him?
I love him.
That's fantastic!
That's fantastic!
What?
Would you please not read
over my shoulder?
You started something.
That frigging idiot!
I'll take his frigging thesis
and throw it down the toilet!
Annie, what happened?
Tell me. Come on!
He can take his goddamn family
and live with them for the rest
of his life, that animal.
OK., so tell me.
Well,
for one thing,
he thinks I'm a dilettante.
Well, maybe he's not so blind.
I can see you really
take me seriously.
I take you more seriously
than you take yourself.
How can I love him?
Maybe I don't love him.
How can you love someone
that doesn't even know you?
Maybe I just like him a lot.
Maybe that's enough.
It doesn't sound like much to me.
Anyway...
Anyway what?
You can take care of yourself.
I don't want to take care of myself.
I want Martin to take care of me.
For Christ's sake, Anne,
you don't need anyone
to take care of you.
Don't you know that?
I don't?
No, you don't.
I don't.
Anne, you won't believe it.
You're going to be famous,
and I'm going to be famous.
Tell me.
What happened?
I dit it.
They're taking three of my pictures.
Three pictures.
And one of them is of you.
Oh, Susan, that's fantastic.
Which ones?
One of the kids,
the one of David's feet,
and one of the morning ones of you.
But I'm half naked.
You're not naked.
Anne, they loved the lighting.
That was their favorite.
I'm going to get paid!
Isn't that incredible?
No more bar mitzvahs.
I'm so excited.
It's fantastic.
No more weddings.
One more wedding?
Never, never.
I'll never do another wedding again.
Annie, I can't believe it.
They loved them.
My wedding?
What do you mean?
You're not getting married.
I'm getting married.
What?
Martin and I are.
Annie...
That's great.
Susan...
How can you get married?
I mean,
you don't even know him.
Are you sure?
I'm sure.
How can you be sure
when you're so unsure?
I don't know...
But I am.
Give her some champagne.
To the bride and groom.
Susan, we need you
in the pictures.
Come on, Susan,
I want you in the picture.
Just a minute.
Well, you know,
I've been thinking for days
about what I was going to say.
And I just find myself standing here,
and I'm so damn happy.
I don't really know what to say,
except I would like to drink to Anne
and just say
and I hope you have a fabulous
life and a fabulous marriage.
Hey, Sue!
Susan Weinblatt.
Hi.
- Long time no hear, see, or speak, huh?
- Yeah.
Are you by yourself this time?
Not for long.
Red or white?
Uh, red.
Do you have any ice?
Uno momento.
Thank you.
Where's Jack?
He's probably seducing someone
in the bathroom.
So how was the wedding?
Not bad for my third.
Congratulations.
No, not hers.
It was her roommate's.
Oh, sorry.
That's all right.
I caught the bouquet.
Oh, congratulations.
Then I dropped it.
Don't tell your mother.
Eric James Allen,
Susan Weinblatt.
Hi.
Pleased to meet you.
Terry, can you come over here
for a second?
- Listen, I'll see you guys later.
- OK.
So... uh... would, uh,
would you like to, uh...
Dance?
No.
So, uh, you're of
Chinese ancestry, huh?
Wrong.
Japanese.
That's what I meant, Japanese.
Oh.
North, right?
Northern Japan?
No.
South.
No.
North.
Yes.
Yes. That's what I meant.
Susan, how you doing?
Denise, all right.
How you doing?
How was the wedding?
Oh, it was great.
Listen, you want to dance?
- Sure.
- OK.
Bye.
I'll talk to you later.
See you, Liz, Bill.
What's your middle name?
Do you live nearby?
Yeah, just a couple of blocks away.
You want to go?
Actually, I was going to wait around a
little bit and talk to a couple of people.
Oh, sure.
You live near here?
No.
Up on the East Side, huh?
West Side.
I live near here,
Oh?
You want to go?
Did I do something?
I just want to go home,
that's all.
Seriously?
Bye.
Bye.
Boy, oh, boy.
Supposed to be women's liberation.
Bet you's one of them
karate experts, too, huh?
Nope.
I say it's great.
Let them have it.
It's about time women got treated
like first-class citizens.
Ever have the mumps?
Ask your boyfriend if he ever had
the mumps when he was a kid.
When a man, uh, as an adult man,
like my age, gets the mumps...
He gets impotent.
Oh.
Thanks for telling me.
Bet that would make you mad, huh?
I mean,
being your boyfriend and all.
It's so beautiful.
This is a mountain in Safi, I think.
No, maybe it's in Casablanca.
