:40:00
Nothing's gone,
:40:02
it only changes.
:40:05
I still love you.
:40:07
Of course you do.
:40:10
You always will.
:40:13
Calvero, come back.
:40:16
You've got to come back!
:40:19
I can't.
I must go forward.
:40:24
That's progress.
:40:26
Then let me go with you.
:40:29
I'll do everything in the world
to make you happy.
:40:34
That's what hurts.
I know you will.
:40:40
Mr. Postant said
he'd give you a benefit.
:40:44
I don't want his charity.
:40:46
It isn't charity.
:40:48
He says it'd be the greatest
event in theatrical history.
:40:52
I'm not interested in events.
:40:55
But I would like a chance just
to show them I'm not through yet.
:40:59
Of course.
:41:01
I've still got ideas, you know.
:41:04
I've been working on,
working on... a comedy act,
:41:08
for myself and my friend.
:41:10
It's sort of a musical satire.
:41:12
Wonderful!
:41:13
You know he's a very good pianist,
and me with the violin...
:41:18
A lot of very really
really very funny business.
:41:33
Come in.
:41:38
Sit down, my dear.
You look tired.
:41:41
I've been working with the claque,
going over Calvero's jokes.
:41:45
I gave them cue sheets so
they'll know exactly where to laugh.
:41:48
Are the jokes as bad as all that?
:41:51
I'm worried. If he fails tonight,
it'll kill him. I know it.
:41:55
He won't fail. The audience
will be most sympathetic.
:41:59
But he doesn't want sympathy.
He keeps saying that.
