1:14:00
but only if it excessively
exposed to our radium.
1:14:03
So if we're careful
1:14:04
there is nothing
to be frightened about.
1:14:06
But the very word frightens me.
1:14:08
You saw how it took my own mother.
1:14:13
We'll have to give up
our experiments
1:14:16
If we are dealing with
as powerful a forces
1:14:18
there is no telling what...
1:14:21
I wouldn't allow it.
1:14:22
I wouldn't let you take such risk
1:14:23
I won't permit you.
1:14:24
No, Marie. Pierre, please.
Listen to me, please.
1:14:25
There is something
I must tell you
1:14:27
and then you should decide
as you wish.
1:14:33
Very well, Marie.
1:14:36
As I left the doctor
I have been thinking.
1:14:40
This element of ours obviously
has a terrific power.
1:14:44
Power enough to
affect healthy tissue like mine.
1:14:47
Power enough to destroy tissue.
1:14:50
Pierre, if it has this power
1:14:53
why hasn't it also the power to
destroy unhealthy tissue?
1:14:59
You realize what that might mean?
1:15:01
It could heal.
1:15:03
By destroying unhealthy tissue
1:15:04
it could heal all men of diseases
1:15:08
Like cancer? You?
1:15:11
Yes, Pierre.
It might even do that.
1:15:13
We don't know what things
it might do for people.
1:15:19
But, Marie... Oh, Pierre.
Can't you see
1:15:21
how unimportant little things
like these are compared
1:15:24
to what it might mean?
1:15:26
It might prevent great sicknesses
even deaths. Pierre.
1:15:57
And so they went on
with their work
1:15:59
using every possible precaution.
