Even as I said it,
I knew he still loved his wife.

:29:04
And then, because I loved him,
I felt I had to restore her to him...

:29:09
to make her what she'd been before...
:29:12
to make him happy.
:29:18
All that you say comes to the same thing.
:29:21
You are asking me to pass a sentence
of life or death on my wife.

:29:24
Insulin shock treatment
is an extreme measure, Paul...

:29:27
as Miss Connell pointed out
when she suggested it to me, but...

:29:30
You admit that this is terribly dangerous.
So why do you advise it?

:29:33
I've worked with it. I've seen cures.
It's at least a hope.

:29:37
It's the very danger itself, Paul,
that makes the cure possible.

:29:41
Insulin produces a state of coma.
:29:43
Then the patient is revived
by a violent shock to the nerves.

:29:46
That shock can kill, but it can also cure.
:29:53
I don't know.
:29:54
It's a hard decision to make,
but yours is only a technical responsibility.

:29:58
Technical responsibility.
Real responsibility.

:30:01
The question is, will she live or die?
:30:03
You're wrong, Mr. Holland.
It isn't a question of life or death.

:30:06
Your wife isn't living.
:30:07
She's in a world
that's empty of joy or meaning.

:30:10
We have a chance
to give her life back to her.

:30:39
- Well?
- She's alive, that's all.

:30:46
Don't take it so much to heart, Betsy.
:30:48
I imagined it so differently.
:30:51
I've been waiting for hours,
trying to imagine Jessica well again.

:30:55
And I come bringing you nothing.
:30:57
Instead, you come bringing me sympathy,
Betsy...
