:30:01
But it is our wedding.
Don't they expect us?

:30:04
I imagine they are afraid
we might turn up.

:30:06
It's hard to believe, in this day and age.
:30:09
What makes you think
we live in this day and age?

:30:11
The time has come. Bedtime for
children under 12 and movie directors.

:30:15
I'll see you out.
:30:16
In case I wasn't heard above the hubbub,
once more, I congratulate you.

:30:20
- And me.
- And you.

:30:25
Oh, uh... I've got to say something.
I hope you won't mind.

:30:29
- I won't know until after you've said it.
- My relationship with Maria...

:30:34
It's been a strange one.
I've never known what it was, really.

:30:37
Friend, director, confessor,
part-time amateur psychiatrist.

:30:41
- And, as of now, father of the bride?
- As of now, more like a godfather.

:30:46
A fairy godfather, with a sense of reality.
:30:49
No one could wish for anything more.
:30:51
She's lived her whole life
as a fairy tale, you know?

:30:54
No, I did not know.
:30:56
She's never been in love before.
Take my word for it.

:30:59
She's vulnerable.
Wide open to be hurt badly.

:31:02
Emotionally, she's a child.
:31:05
And she's wrapped all her dreams up
in one dream prince, and you're it.

:31:10
That's quite a responsibility.
:31:12
I don't want her hurt badly.
I don't want her hurt at all.

:31:16
Do you think I do? I don't mind
what you have said, Mr Dawes.

:31:20
But I wonder why did
you find it necessary to say.

:31:23
Oh, I don't know. My sense
number six again, maybe.

:31:26
- Number six?
- Another private joke. Good night.

:31:30
Good night.
:31:40
I have seen you like this
once or twice before.

:31:43
When your characters do not
work out as you have planned,

:31:46
or have taken a step themselves and
you're not sure what the next will be.

:31:50
- Let's not talk about my script now.
- I'm not. You know I'm talking about me.

:31:55
- It's not going to be easy.
- Has it been, up till now?
