- I couldn't help myself.
- Neither could he!

:41:06
That's the unholy pity of it.
:41:09
The one man in all of your fantasy
and the one woman in all of his

:41:13
who could have made each other happy.
:41:15
And, once more, life louses up the script.
:41:19
- But I will make him happy.
- Look, will he let you go back to work?

:41:24
I can wind this one up in six weeks.
You can take him to California.

:41:27
You weren't listening to me.
I'm going to make him happy.

:41:31
How? How are you going
to make him happy?

:41:34
By more of the same,
until you get caught?

:41:37
- I don't want to get angry with you.
- Then why tell me about it?

:41:40
Because I needed to tell you.
:41:45
Harry, what do you think
would make Vincenzo happy?

:41:50
You, as the perfect,
beyond reproach, last contessa.

:41:59
That would only make him less unhappy.
:42:01
What he would wish for
more than anything else

:42:03
is that neither he,
nor his sister, nor I be the last.

:42:07
- As a wish.
- It will come true.

:42:11
What are you talking about?
:42:13
- I have made it come true.
- You what?

:42:17
What has happened to
your sense number six, Harry?

:42:23
- Who knows?
- Only you and I.

:42:26
- What about the father?
- It is not his concern.

:42:29
The baby will be mine and my husband's.
:42:31
- Do you really believe that?
- It will make Vincenzo happy.

:42:35
Maria, don't you know
the man you are married to?

:42:38
You're talking mawkish nonsense
you remember from cheap films.

:42:41
Your husband is not out of James
M Barrie or Hans Christian Andersen.

:42:45
He's a tortured, neurotic man,
who's finishing life on his own terms.

:42:48
No, Harry. This time it is you
who does not understand.

:42:51
I know Vincenzo better than you do.
:42:54
Amen to that.
:42:58
How much simpler it would be,
for so many of us,
