- Take your fur and a hot-water bottle.
- Is the house that cold?
:41:07
- No, but Louisa is.
- Mr. Archer.
:41:09
Come to Delmonico's on Sunday. I'm
having an oyster supper in your honor.
:41:15
Private room, congenial company,
artists and so on.
:41:18
That's tempting. I haven't met
a single artist since my arrival.
:41:22
I know some painters I could
bring to see you.
:41:25
Painters? Are there
any painters in New York?
:41:29
Thank you, but I was really thinking
of singers, actors, musicians...
:41:34
...dramatic artists.
:41:36
There were always so many
at my husband's house.
:41:39
May I let you know tomorrow?
It's too late to decide tonight.
:41:44
Is this late?
:41:54
Of course, Newland...
:41:56
...if you can persuade the countess
to change her mind...
:42:00
...you can join us too.
:42:04
You know painters, then?
You live in their milieu?
:42:06
- Not exactly.
- But you care about such things?
:42:10
Immensely. When I'm in Europe,
I never miss an exhibition.
:42:14
I try to keep up.
:42:16
I used to care immensely too.
:42:18
My life was full of such things.
:42:21
But now I want to cast off all
my old life to be an American...
:42:25
...and be like everyone else.
:42:28
I doubt you'll ever quite
be like everybody else.
:42:31
Don't say that. I want to put
all the old things behind me.
:42:35
I know.
:42:37
Mr. Letterblair told me.
:42:40
Mr. Letterblair?
:42:42
Yes, I've come because he
asked me to. I'm in the firm.
:42:47
You mean it'll be you who'll
manage everything for me?
:42:50
- I can talk to you. That's easier.
- Yes, I'm here to talk about it.
:42:54
I've read all the legal papers.
:42:59
And the letter from the count.
