:56:00
I've spent between
10 and 15 hours a day with Frank.

:56:04
Nothing bothers him
except through your mouth.

:56:07
We've been through that.
:56:09
Either he laughs and makes bad jokes
or sits in silence and rots inside.

:56:15
Either way, for your edification,
he's heading for a bender.

:56:20
Why do women always think they
understand men better than men do?

:56:24
Maybe because they live with them.
:56:27
You'll have him full of whisky
before morning.

:56:31
He's getting a cold. That's a reason
to jump down the well.

:56:35
Why work so hard? You handle him,
and now you're trying to handle me!

:56:41
And don't think I couldn't,
after handling a cunning drunkard.

:56:46
If you loved this man, you could
never call him a cunning drunkard.

:56:51
I have a greater love for the truth.
:56:53
I'm a drunkard's wife.
That's the truth.

:56:57
Stop looking at everything
as if it were a musical comedy!

:57:01
I find you slightly grotesque.
:57:04
You came here to tell me
something. What is it?

:57:08
Cook's got a replacement for Frank
and a lot of money to protect.

:57:13
I think Frank will improve.
Cook thinks he won't.

:57:17
- Well, he won't unless you leave.
- You'll be sorry. He'll be helpless.

:57:22
- I'll help him.
- You wouldn't know where to begin!

:57:28
I'll begin by not calling him
a cunning drunkard.

:57:31
I'll give him confidence
by rejoicing in his talents

:57:36
instead of reminding him
of his weaknesses.

:57:39
I'll let him face a decision
without fear.

:57:42
I won't stifle him with bitterness.
:57:45
I might bend the truth, but I'll get
a performance out of him.

:57:49
That's the difference. You want him
to become the actor he once was.

:57:54
I'm his wife. I want him once more
as the man he once was,
