Mr. Brady.
Good evening, Mr. Stahr.
What are you doing here?
l'm with Martha Dodd's party.
What's your name?
Kathleen Moore.
Kathleen Moore.
Hmm.
How do you know her?
Oh.
l met her...
...recently.
Are you married?
No.
l must go back now.
l promised this dance.
Can we have lunch or dinner?
No.
lt's impossible.
l must go back.
Thank you for the dance.
Monroe?
Monroe?
Hi, Rod.
Hello, Esther.
Hello, Monroe.
Monroe, come here.
lsn't she wonderful?
lsn't she beautiful?
Stop.
How are you, Esther?
Great.
Really great.
This is the greatest country
in the world...
...everybody stands a chance
in this country.
There's not going to be
no revolution.
The only people who want
a revolution are the Communists.
And the fairies.
What kind of a revolution...
...do the fairies want?
- A Communist one.
What else?
Do you think Stalin
likes homosexuals?
Homosexuals, eh?
Let me tell you something.
You know, "homo" is
a Greek word.
l come from Europe,
l'm Greek.
That's why he knows so much
about Stalin.
But Stalin ain't Greek.
You're damn right he ain't.
He's a fairy.
He's a bastard, Communist,
Russian fairy...
that's what he is!
Calm down.
Fleishacker,
let me tell you something.
After the revolution,
you'll be the only safe one.
You know why?
Because they always
need lawyers...
...after a revolution...
...to straighten out the legal end.
What do you think, Monroe?
l think so, too.
You know, uh...
...l saw Highway to Tomorrow.
You're right.
You take 20 minutes out of it,
you got a fine movie.
Possibly.
The shape's not too bad.
The shape is good.
You know why?
Because Eddie is
one of the best cutters...
...in the business.
Where are you going?
lt's early.
lt's late.
They talked as if
l'd been dancing...
...with the Prince of Wales.
Meet me tomorrow.
Mr. Stahr?
l've said l can't.
lsn't that enough?
Not now.
Can l talk to you for one minute?
Look, tomorrow is Sunday.
Why don't you come to the studio.
l'll show you around the studio.
No, l wouldn't like
to see the studio.
You wouldn't?
Monroe, we have that...
Excuse me.
l say, Mr. Stahr...
Look.
Look, where would you like to go?
l'm a weak woman.
lf l meet you tomorrow...
...will you leave me in peace?
No, you won't, will you?
So l'll say no...
...and thank you.
Going down.
Oh!
What does it take to get
you to leave a party?
You're the one
who wanted to come.
l only agreed to come...
...because you said
we wouldn't stay so long.
Not in the elevator.
Main floor.
They looked so strange
when l came in,
as if they were furious at me
for not being somebody famous.
l know another way out.
Back up, back up,
let them through.
How old are you?
l've lost track.
About 35, l think.
Where are you from?
l was born on the East Side
of New York.
They said at the table
you were the "boy wonder."
Ah...
Where's your car?
Listen, where will we
meet tomorrow?
l'll come by,
and l'll pick you up at 2:00.
Hmm?
No...
No.
l'll meet you here,
the same spot.
Have you been here all night?
Yes.
l'd like some tea,
if it's a place you're not known.
There's a place on the coast
where they have a trained seal;
He bit me once.
But he won't say a word
unless you're rude to him.
What are you hiding?
Nothing.
What'll you have?
Two teas.
Right.
Shake?
See?
He remembers you.
This seal has the memory
of an elephant.
He likes him...
'cause he's such a charming guy.
Does he respond to affection?
He responds to fish.
This seal's got taste.
Come on out.
Seat.
How long have you known him?
Oh, l've known him...
...for years.
His father's an old friend of mine.
But the family history
ain't too good.
His mother ran off
with another seal.
ls he good to you?
Well, he's good to me
on the whole.
Only got one problem.
He won't ride in the backseat.
That's right...
...climbs over the back
and rides in front.
Now, l know he's a good driver...
But who owns the car?
Right?
Right!
Here.
Give him this.
Whoa. Thanks.
Well, this is it.
l don't know why l'm building it.
Maybe it's for you.
Well, l think it's great of you...
...to build a big house for me...
...without even knowing
what l look like.
l didn't know what kind
of a roof you wanted.
l don't need a roof.
What's that for?
The projector.
The what?
The movie projector.
l gave a luncheon
out here last week,
so l had some props
...to see how the place felt.
ls that real grass?
Sure.
ls it from a film set?
No.
Can l walk on it?
Walk.
l'll watch you.
Will you live here alone?
Yes.
Alone with your movie projector?
Mm-hmm.
Where do you live now?
l live in my old house.
What's this?
Oh, the, uh, swimming pool.
Or it will be a swimming pool.
Well, you need a constant supply
of Nereids to...
...plunge and gambol.
Nereids, what's that?
Sea nymphs.
Oh, no.
l'll just come out here
to read scripts.
No distractions.
l lived with a man for a long time.
Too long.
l wanted to leave,
but he couldn't let me go.
So finally l ran away.
l must go now.
l have an appointment.
l didn't tell you.
That's not true,
but it's all right.
Thank you, l must go now.
We'll do it again?
No, l'm sorry,
l'll... write you a letter.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Do you ever go to the movies?
Oh.
Not much.
Why not?
Should l?
Millions of people do.
Why?
Because movies are necessary
to them.
They give them what they need.
What you need.
lt's my life.
Have you got them?
Yes.
This wasn't my idea.
Let's go back.
To your house on the beach.
Watch your head.
Comfortable?
l wonder when it's settled.
What?
l mean, there's a moment
when you needn't,
and then there's another moment...
...when you know that nothing
in the world...
...can keep it from happening.
Hmm.
l know why you liked me at first.
Edna told me.
What did she tell you?
That l look like Minna Davis.
Hmm.
You were happy with her?
l don't remember.
You don't remember?
No.
l remember what she looked like,
but l don't remember
what we were like.
She became very professional.
She was very, very successful.
She answered all her fan letters.
Everyone loved her.
l was closest to her
when she was dying.
l'm warm now.
Does the maid live here
or just come for your breakfast?
There'd be a lots for a maid
to do, looking after Mr. Stahr.
Are you going to stay
in California?
Are you?
Huh?
Can't you tell me?
What's the mystery?
Not now.
lt's not worth telling.
Come here then.
You're tired.
No, l'm not.
l mean, you work too hard.
Don't be a mother.
What shall l be?
l'll show you.
You've taken off my apron.
lt's here l look like Minna Davis...
...isn't it?
No.
lt's here.
What was he like?
He was a very learned man.
He could have taught
all sorts of subjects.
He taught me.
We traveled.
He was very attractive.
And he was also...
...well, he was a king.
l mean, he really was a real one,
