1:28:00
- Relief that I managed to stagger through it.
- She was magnificent.
1:28:03
- Then you've heard, too.
- I was there.
1:28:05
- You were at the play last night?
- A happy coincidence.
1:28:08
- We're having lunch with a talent scout.
- They certainly don't waste much time.
1:28:12
- It's nothing definite. Just lunch.
- They'll be wasting their time.
1:28:16
Eve has no intention of going to Hollywood.
1:28:19
By your smart dress,
I take ityour companion is a lady?
1:28:22
- Margo.
- Margo lunching in public?
1:28:25
It's a new Margo,
but she's just as late as the old one.
1:28:27
She may be later than you think.
1:28:33
Why not read my column to pass the time?
1:28:36
- The minutes will fly like hours.
- Thank you, Addison.
1:28:39
Now we must join our sunburnt eager beaver.
1:28:41
- Goodbye, Karen.
- Goodbye.

"And so my hat which has,
lo, these many seasons,
1:29:08
become firmly rooted about my ears,
is lifted to Miss Harrington."
1:29:12
"I am available for dancing in the streets
and shouting from the housetops."
1:29:16
I thought that one went out with Woollcott.
Now listen to this.
1:29:19
"Miss Harrington had much to tell and
these columns shall report her faithfully
1:29:23
about the lamentable practice
in our theatre of permitting
1:29:27
mature actresses to continue playing roles
1:29:30
requiring a youth and vigour
of which they retain but a dim memory."
1:29:35
- I just can't believe it.
- It gets better.
1:29:38
"About the understandable reluctance
of our entrenched first ladies of the stage
1:29:42
to encourage, shall we say,
younger actresses,
1:29:45
and Miss Harrington's unsupported
struggle for opportunity."
1:29:48
- I can't believe Eve said those things.
- In this rat race,
1:29:51
everybody's guilty till proved innocent.
1:29:54
One of the differences between
the theatre and civilisation.
1:29:59
What gets me is how all the papers happened
to catch that particular performance.
