:09:01
l bet you're rolling in wealth.
:09:03
What have l got?
:09:04
Railroads, oil, cotton.
That's what they gave you in my day.

:09:09
l only could take what they had.
:09:11
And you know what's happened
to those things.

:09:13
You are down to cases.
''lnternational star returns to stage.''

:09:18
Never. l'll have my double chins in privacy.
:09:22
l've seen too many hardened arteries
dragged out to make a first-night holiday.

:09:27
Oh, no.
:09:29
Now, Carlotta, your stock
must bring you in a little something.

:09:33
lt can't cost you an awful lot
to live over there.

:09:36
No? You saw how it was like at Antibes.
:09:41
You and Millicent.
:09:42
10 and 20 for luncheon, cocktails.
Most of them staying on for dinner.

:09:48
Very same thing at my house in London.
Everybody popping in.

:09:52
Noel, Winston, and once in a while, Wales.
:09:57
l didn't do so badly for a little girl
from Quincy, lllinois, eh, ducky?

:10:02
But it all takes money.
:10:06
Why don't you get rid of all that,
live over here for a while?

:10:11
l've been in New York four days,
the first time l've been back in 10 years...

:10:16
and l'm lost already.
:10:18
No, everything's changed.
:10:21
l couldn't stand it here. l'd die.
:10:25
l belong to the Delmonico period.
:10:29
Table at the window
looking out on Fifth Avenue.

:10:34
Boxes with flowers,
and pink lampshades...

:10:38
string orchestra and l don't know....
:10:41
Yes. Willow plumes, lnverness capes...
:10:45
dry champagne and snow on the ground.
:10:50
They don't even have snow anymore.
:10:54
- Pardon me, Mr. Jordan.
- Miss Copeland?

:10:56
- Mr. Eton is outside. He wants to see you.
- l'll go and see him.
