:36:03
Let's go for a walk
before it gets too dark.
:36:30
I thought I heard Helena
calling. Excuse me.
:36:36
I think Eva is awfully unhappy.
:36:41
I'm appalled when I hear her
holding forth. It's so neurotic.
:36:45
Just a moment, Charlotte
:36:48
and I'll try to explain
how I view my wife.
:36:55
When I asked Eva to marry me,
she said she didn't love me.
:37:00
-What do you mean?
-I asked if she loved someone else.
:37:04
She said she had
never loved anyone,
:37:09
that she was
incapable of loving.
:37:15
Eva and I lived here for
several years. Then Erik was born.
:37:23
We'd given up hope of a child of
our own and talked of adopting one.
:37:29
With her pregnancy, Eva
underwent a complete change.
:37:36
She became cheerful,
gentle and outgoing.
:37:42
She got lazy and
couldn't be bothered
:37:45
with her parish work
or her piano-playing.
:37:49
She would sit by that window
gazing at the play of light
:37:52
over the fell and the fjord.
:37:58
We were suddenly very happy.
