:27:02
I should be, if...
certain things were different.
:27:06
Things are always different
from what they might be.
:27:13
I shall not live many years...
:27:16
but I hope long enough to see
what Isabel does with herself.
:27:19
I should like
to do something for her.
:27:22
- I should like to make her rich.
- What do you mean by rich?
:27:26
I call people rich
:27:28
when they're able to meet the
requirements of their imagination.
:27:32
To do what she likes with it?
:27:34
Absolutely what she likes.
:27:37
Good boy.
:27:40
You win.
:27:43
Down.
:27:48
Who is this Madame Merle?
:27:51
She's very charming.
:27:54
She plays beautifully.
:27:56
- She does everything beautifully.
- You don't like her.
:28:00
On the contrary,
I was once in love with her.
:28:03
And she didn't care for you?
:28:05
That's why you don't like her?
:28:07
How can we have
discussed such things?
:28:10
Monsieur Merle was then living.
:28:12
Is he dead now?
:28:14
So she says.
:28:16
Don't you believe her?
:28:19
Yes, because...
:28:22
the husband of Madame Merle
would be likely to pass away.
:28:29
Am I late?
:28:31
I do apologise.
:28:33
No, not at all.
:28:38
Are you aware of the beautiful
walking paths round the estate?
:28:44
Americans certainly
make poor Europeans.
:28:49
We've no natural place here.
:28:52
But a woman, it seems to me,
has no natural place anywhere.
:28:56
Wherever she finds herself,
she must stay on the surface,
