Their financial profit was
almost immaterial
1:03:08
The important thing is to create
something lasting
1:03:14
But not everyone can create
something lasting
1:03:21
The thing that sustains a writer,
like you, Pontano...
1:03:25
...is a sense of necessity,
not a need for profit
1:03:30
You write because it's necessary
for you and others
1:03:33
- But one has to live
- I never worried about that
1:03:38
Life is what you make of it

I think he'd commit suicide
1:03:52
I don't feel that important

1:04:17
No. But you have the advantage
of real people...
1:04:21
...you create real houses, real cities
1:04:26
The rhythm of life, the future,
is in your hands
1:04:32
This is a black day for my husband
1:04:35
You're right
1:04:37
Are you one of the many
worrying about the future?
1:04:41
I'm building my own, although
the present keeps me busy
1:04:46
Probably the future will never come
1:04:50
The future will be awful,
don't you think?
1:04:54
By the way, why not stay here tonight?
1:04:56
Darling, you're always interrupting me
