:06:01
Don't give it away.
I can lend you what you need.
:06:04
No, Howard. Oh, God, no.
Thank you, though.
:06:07
No. You've been... You've been
incredible to me through all this,...
:06:10
- ..but I've gotta try and get my own life...
- What can you do in New York?
:06:15
I don't know. I...
:06:17
Maybe my photography again. I was...
:06:20
Or sometimes I think
about writing, but I don't know.
:06:25
It's awful, isn't it, at my age
to be floundering around so?
:06:28
I just... I don't know what I want.
:06:32
A child. I'd love to have a child.
:06:35
Lane, did you, by any chance,
finish those chapters I gave you?
:06:39
- Yeah, almost. They're wonderful.
- I thought about them. I'm discouraged.
:06:44
- You shouldn't be. You're wrong.
- I just wanna start over, again.
:06:48
You can't tear up
everything you write, you know.
:06:51
Otherwise of course you have
to take tranquillisers to calm down.
:06:55
It seems so futile.
I was supposed to be finished by now.
:06:58
Next week is Labor Day.
I have to be back at my job the day after.
:07:01
If you wouldn't let
my mother seduce you...
:07:04
Now, her life would make
a fascinating book.
:07:06
Why? What's so fascinating
about her frivolous existence?
:07:10
That she left my father,
who was a wonderful man,...
:07:13
..for a gangster who beat her up?
You think that's compelling?
:07:16
Was it the shooting? That wasn't
fascinating. That was pathetic.
:07:19
Maybe it's that she's a survivor, and
the book I'm writing is about surviving.
:07:23
You're right. She went on with her life,
but I get stuck with the nightmares.
:07:27
Excuse me. Uh...
:07:30
Diane wanted some ice cubes
and you seem to be out.
:07:33
Um, there's a... there's an ice machine
just outside the back door.
:07:40
And you're wrong to think your mother
didn't suffer terribly over that whole affair.
:07:51
Right. Poor thing
:07:54
She experienced a little hearing loss
in her left ear from the gunshot.
:07:57
Noise trauma.
:07:59
The only point I wanted to make -
and I didn't mean to upset you -
