Alfie

Oi. Turn it down a bit, Annie.

1:05:13

It´s in love, see,

1:05:14

Now, when it listens to that stuff,

1:05:17

it daydreams that the bloke who threw
it over will one day want it back,

1:05:21

What a bleeding hope,
Just watch how it works,

1:05:24

Scrub, scrub, scrub,

1:05:27

It takes some birds like that,

1:05:29

Not all of ´em,

1:05:32

Can I get you a cup of tea, Alfie?

1:05:34

Take it easy! You always want
to be doing something.

1:05:37

Here, I had a bird once,
a big fat thing it was,

1:05:42

got crossed in love or something.

1:05:44

The bigger they are,
the harder they fall.

1:05:46

She used to sit in front of the fire,

1:05:48

smoking cigarettes and drinking tea
till her shins were burnt red raw.

1:05:53

´´Give us a cup of tea,
bracken shins, ´´ I said to it once.

1:05:56

´´What, ´´ it said, ´´you paralysed? ´´
I soon got rid of it.

1:05:59

Are you visiting your friend
at the sanatorium?

1:06:02

Old Harry? I thought I would.
You fancy a ride in the car, girl?

1:06:06

l´ve some washing to do.

1:06:08

You´re always bleeding washing.
Take a rest.

1:06:11

I feel better
if l´m doing something.

1:06:13

Well, if it makes you feel better,
l´m not going to stop you.

1:06:17

Punishes itself, you see. That way
life can´t get at it the same.

1:06:22

- What time will you be back?
- You shouldn´t ask me that.

1:06:25

When I go out, I don´t know what day
l´II be back, let alone what time.

1:06:29

- L´m what is called a free agent.
- Sorry, Alfie.

1:06:32

I just thought
l´d have your meal ready.

1:06:34

Make a meal that´s always ready.
Hash or stew or something.

1:06:38

- I thought l´d do something special.
- Get those boots for me, girl.

1:06:45

See, even she´s started asking me
when l´II be back.

1:06:49

Know what? That little remark
could be the writing on the wall.

1:06:55

Annie? When will you start using
those gloves I bought you?
