:46:03
except to become
a cheap Hong Kong Eurasian.
:46:08
That can never be true
and I don't want you to say it.
:46:10
Well, I will say it.
:46:13
Then I've been wrong about you.
I don't understand your thinking.
:46:17
How could you? You're not Eurasian.
:46:20
Your pride and sense of dignity
are not involved.
:46:23
Of course they are! You're not
something I picked up off the street.
:46:27
- You're oversensitive about being Eurasian.
- I am trying to be sensible.
:46:31
You are an American.
In my heart I am Chinese.
:46:35
You are married. I am a widow.
You are ajournalist,
:46:38
a front-row spectator not directly involved.
:46:41
I am a doctor deeply involved,
with a duty toward my people.
:46:45
- I don't want anything sordid to...
- Sordid?! I'm in love with you.
:46:50
Don't you understand, Suyin? I love you.
:46:52
Oh, Mark. We both know that even
the fat, ugly people of this world
:46:56
believe that being in love makes
them beautiful and justifies everything.
:47:01
I want something better than that for us.
:47:03
While I stand around biting my fingers
until you decide I'm worth the risk.
:47:07
Oh, Mark. Don't let
your male vanity enter this.
:47:11
You don't have to go to Chungking
to rid your conscience of me.
:47:15
- I'll get out now.
- Don't threaten me, Mark.
:47:19
Thas not a threat.
