She was good to Annie when
Mr. Beaufort sent her to the Sorbonne.
:56:05
Wasn't the countess friendly
with his first wife?
:56:08
Mr. Beaufort said that she was.
:56:11
In any case, I called
the countess this morning...
:56:14
- ...introduced myself as her cousin--
- Did you tell her I was here?
:56:19
Of course. Why not?
:56:29
Lovely?
:56:33
I don't know.
:56:35
She was different.
:56:53
...it had been abstractly,
serenely...
:56:56
...like an imaginary loved one
in a book or picture.
:57:04
She had become the complete vision
of all that he had missed.
:57:13
I'm only 57.
:57:20
Did Mr. Beaufort really have
a bad time when he remarried?
:57:24
No one wanted to give him an inch.
:57:30
As if anyone remembers anymore.
:57:32
Or cares.
:57:34
Well, Annie Ring and he did
have a lovely daughter.
:57:37
You're very lucky.
:57:40
We're very lucky, you mean.
:57:42
Of course that's what I mean.
:57:45
Considering how that turned out
and all the time that's passed...
:57:49
...how can you resist?
:57:51
I had some resistance
at first to your marriage--
:57:54
I mean resist seeing the woman you
almost threw everything over for.
