:17:03
What's the matter? You still
thinking about your mother?
:17:05
I can't believe Renata encourages her.
She fills her full of false hope.
:17:10
She's just trying to keep her spirits up.
:17:17
I wanna quit my job.
:17:20
Oh, Joey!
:17:22
I can't keep my mind on it.
I can't concentrate.
:17:25
I sit there all day, reading other people's
manuscripts, and I lose interest.
:17:29
I get headaches. Then I'm meant to write
an opinion. It's not fair to the authors.
:17:35
A month ago you said you finally
found something you enjoyed.
:17:38
Well, I was wrong.
:17:41
I think about going back to acting.
:17:44
I'm not an actress.
:17:46
Can't do that again.
Flyn's the actress in this family.
:17:50
Why don't you work with me?
:17:53
Because political activity
is not my interest.
:17:57
I'm too self-centered for that.
:17:59
That's my whole point.
It would get you off yourself.
:18:03
Sometimes I think if we had a child...
:18:06
Oh, God.
:18:08
I mean, that really makes me anxious.
I mean... it's totally irrevocable.
:18:15
Whatever happened to your photography?
You used to be so hot on that.
:18:19
I hate it. It's stupid.
:18:22
I feel a real need to express something
:18:24
but I don't know what it is I want
to express or how to express it.
:18:31
It's always so difficult getting Mother
a birthday present. It's impossible.
:18:36
Please, let's not stay forever at the party.
I wanna finish proofreading those galleys.
:18:41
Oh, come on, Frederick.
Really, I hardly ever see Mother.
:18:44
I hardly ever spend time with her at all.
:18:47
It won't be so terrible. Flyn will be there.
:18:49
Terrific. We get caught up on
the latest Hollywood gossip.
:18:52
Oh, come on, Frederick.
You know Flyn likes you.
:18:56
And don't behave condescendingly.
I think she senses you talk down to her.
:18:59
I don't talk down to Flyn. I love
hearing about her hair and her weight
