1:02:04
We were talking about the opera.
1:02:05
The wrath of heaven must be at hand.
1:02:08
Its justice will not tarry.
1:02:11
I see the deadly thunderbolt
poised above his head!
1:02:15
Suddenly, he saw her in the crowd.
1:02:18
Maria!
1:02:23
He followed her past the grinning faces
full of boiling teeth.
1:02:27
Past the conversational bouquets.
1:02:29
Past the impeccably emaciated
ladies of society.
1:02:32
The social X-ray women.
1:02:34
Christ, was this the world he lived in?
1:02:37
Before he answered the question
he saw Maria being introduced...
1:02:41
...to his wife.
1:02:53
Maria's just back from ltaly.
1:02:55
She lives on airplanes.
1:02:57
She goes back and forth
from ltaly like a Ping-Pong ball.
1:03:06
Have you met Nunnally Voyd?
1:03:08
At last.
1:03:10
Bobby Shalfet from the opera.
1:03:15
And Arthur Ruskin.
1:03:19
And his wife, Maria.
1:03:22
We've met.
1:03:29
Couldn't you try just once
to be a little bit interesting?
1:03:32
I wanted you to meet Aubrey Buffing.
1:03:36
Aubrey Buffing. He's on the short list
for the Nobel Prize.
1:03:39
He has AIDS. You'll love him.
1:03:43
We are in the middle of the room,
a married couple talking to each other.
1:03:46
You simply don't do it. Go mingle. Please.
1:03:51
And even when repentance is offered,
he refuses.
1:03:55
He refuses to deny his life.
1:03:57
The food, the drink, the flesh...
