That Cold Day in the Park Page #2

Synopsis: Robert Altman's sadly neglected film that, along with his later "Images", fits into the unconventional psycho-thriller mold. A bizarre story with Sandy Dennis as a spinster who takes in a handsome young man (Michael Burns) who is pretending to be mute. She imprisons the boy and supplies his every need, including a prostitute (Luana Anders), whom she goes out and brings home for Burns' pleasure.

Rather the pill.

I've heard stories the

thing that you put into it.

Yes, the IUD.

give birth to a beautiful baby

after wearing one but I

will not take any risks.

The pill that makes you fat.

It's true, I took five pounds.

What will you ask?

I am hoping to do the pill.

You listen to the heart

and it takes your blood?

It examines you entirely.

Really?

Always.

It's nothing. This is your first time?

That's why I was hoping...

Me, it does distress me at all.

I am even more nervous the second time.

Me, it's been I'm not doing more.

But how do you have children?

I would not be nervous if I had,

but I'm not married.

I see. No, it's fine.

If women were all here

before making nonsense,

it would be so much simpler.

I really know nothing about it.

My mother never spoke.

I tried several things.

The diaphragm does not work.

As condom...

The men forget in the excitement.

I had two children, despite that.

Anyway, I am here for the pill.

It seems that in each

box, there is a hole.

This is sadism!

You are married for a long time?

I first started with the IUD

but my husband felt.

Some men... are better equipped?

We will say that.

I thought that's pretty

much it was the same.

No, they are all different, like us.

Note, is asked if a diaphragm

he must either R the right size.

The diaphragm is used

See you instead of the pill.

I'd rather the pill.

Your umbrella.

The Pill it is probably easier.

Yes, but sometimes larger.

Gillian Freeman

Gillian Freeman (born 5 December 1929) is a British writer. Born to Jewish parents Dr. Jack Freeman and his wife Freda (née Davids) in North London, she graduated in English Language and Literature from the University of Reading in 1951. She married Edward Thorpe, novelist and ballet critic of the Evening Standard, in 1955. They have two daughters, the actresses Harriet Thorpe and Matilda Thorpe. One of her best known books was the 1961 novel The Leather Boys (published under the pseudonym Eliot George, a reference to the writer George Eliot), a story of a gay relationship between two young working-class men, later turned into a film for which she wrote the screenplay, this time under her own name. The novel was commissioned by the publisher Anthony Blond, who wanted a story about a "Romeo and Romeo in the South London suburbs". Her non-fiction book The Undergrowth of Literature (1967), was a pioneering study of pornography. In 1979, on another commission from Blond, she wrote a fictional diary, Nazi Lady: The Diaries of Elisabeth von Stahlenberg, 1938–48; Freeman's authorship was not at first revealed and many readers took it to be genuine. Her most recent book is But Nobody Lives in Bloomsbury (2006), a fictional study of the Bloomsbury Group. more…
