Wind's from the south.

Gonna rain.

Tonight maybe.

Don't you worry.

I'll take care
of your father's grave.

Train's coming soon.

I was in Berlin once.

Thirty years ago. Big place.

No end to it.

Well, Lily...

Go to church every Sunday.

Obey your aunt.

She's all you got.

Yes, she is the last.

Well, then...

Goodbye.

Thank you, miss.

Are you Lily?

Yes, tante rasmussen.

Did you have to arrive
in the middle of the night?

The train doesn't leave
until 7 o'clock in the evening.

Huh.

Well, haven't you got a kiss
for your old aunt?

There, there, there.

There, there, there. There, now.

Let's have a look at you.

I'd forgotten
people wore clothes like that.

What have you got there?

- My things.
- Well, bring 'em here.

I'm going to give you
my daughters' room.

My ungrateful,
unnatural daughters

who deserted their old mother.

But I tore them out of my heart.

I've torn them out by the roots.

And all my love
shall be for you.

Not as my niece, no.

As my own child.

Yes, tante rasmussen.

Why, what's this?

- A Bible?
- Itwas his.

Is that all
your scamp of a father left you,

a Bible?

He wasn't a scamp.
He was a good man.

I don't know
what he was good for.

Leaving you a charge
on your old aunt.

However, he taught you to read.
That's something.

Maybe you'll be some use
about the shop, after all.

My father was a good man.

Every night I read to him...

From this Bible.

The lamentations of job,
no doubt.

No. The song of Solomon.

He loved it best.

I don't remember
the song of Solomon.

But knowing your father,
I imagine

there was something dirty in it.

The song of songs is beautiful.

That's more than I can say
for your get-up.

He was a good man.

Alright, alright.

He was a good man.

Take that black pancake
off your head...

And climb out of that shroud.

See if these will fit you.

They belonged to Anna.

Have you had your supper?

I'm not hungry, thanks.

Good. Then you might as well
go to bed.

And in the morning I'll start
teaching you about the books.

I'll lock up tonight,
but after this, you'll do it.

Yes, tante rasmussen.

We open the shop at 6:00
and breakfast is at 7:00.

And you'll have a good home here
if you behave.

But you might as well
understand right now,

I'll tolerate no nonsense.

No, tante rasmussen.

Mercy! How many
of those things do you wear?

What, another?

I've never seen a girl
unpeel herself

like an onion before.

This is the last.

A figure like that
will get you into trouble

if you're not careful.

You'll bear watching.

Go to bed.

Goodnight.

My precious brother.

Isn't it like him?

Dies and leaves me
his daughter...

With nine petticoats
and a Bible.

Does he leave any money?

Not a penny.

A daughter and a Bible.

Always was a restless,
good-for-nothing,

no-account chap.

"By night on my bed
I sought him,

whom my soul ioveth.

I sought him,
but I found him not.

I will arise now
and go about the city,

in the streets
and in the broad ways,

I will seek him
whom my soul ioveth.

I will seek him
whom my soul ioveth."

Are you looking for a book, sir?

What?

I said,
are you looking for a book?

Well, I tell you, when a man
goes in to a book shop,

he's usually looking for a book.

Of course, he might be looking
for the fountain of youth,

but I don't think you sell that.

I meant, is there some
special book you're looking for?

Ha! There is nothing special.

Everything is just the same

as everything else.

Well, I'm afraid
I can't help you.

No. No, I'm afraid you can't.

Oh!

Oh!

No. No, no. Stand up again.

Stand up. I want to see you.

No, I will not.

Oh, I see. You think
I'm interested in your legs.

Well, I'm not.
At least, not just as legs.

My dear child, if you'd seen
as many legs as I have,

you'd get more excited
about a pair of crutches.

I'm a sculptor, my dear,
a sculptor.

Or that is, I'm supposed to be.

And there was something
about you as you stood there

that, that was almost an idea.

Are you the sculptor
that lives across the street?

I'm the sculptor that's going
crazy across the street!

Why? What's the matter?

- I'm stuck.
- Stuck?

Yes. Stuck.

You mean, you mean...

- I mean I'm stuck.
- Yes, I know, but...

Oh, don't say you know
and then say but.

If you can't talk straight,
don't talk at all.

Now, come on, please. Stand up.

This is a book store.

And if you don't want to buy
a book,

then better go back
and, and be stuck.

I don't have to go back.
I'm just as stuck here.

That's the trouble.

The trouble is, you're probably
no good anyway.

Do you know,
I never thought of that.

I tell you what,
you come over and pose for me.

Perhaps, you'll bring me
inspiration.

- No, thank you.
- How about 8 o'clock, hm?

I wouldn't wait if I were you.

Oh, no, no, no.
But you must come.

You know, I believe I could get

something really interesting.

Oh-oh, please come.
Please come, won't you?

You must be crazy.

- What's that got to do with it?
- I don't know you.

Well, I don't know you either,
but I've got to sculpt you.

Now, now, when will you come?
Tonight?

Certainly not.

You know, really,
I... I should have thought

that living here as you do,
among all these marvelous books,

you would have had
some sympathy for art.

- If you come, I'll buy a book.
- Oh, you will?

I... I'll even read
the blessed thing.

It's no use. I couldn't...

- I shall expect you.
- You are crazy.

- Tonight at 8 o'clock.
- Please go away.

- Oh, please come. Please come.
- Never.

Well, I shall expect you.
Auf wiedersehen.

What did he want?

Oh, nothing.

- Didn't he take a book?
- No. He was just looking.

Well, you get on with your work.

And don't you let me catch you

carrying on with any young men.

No, tante rasmussen.

Come in.

Come in, come in.

I don't believe it!

I only came to...

Oh, never mind why you came.

You're here,
that's the main thing.

Oh, come in, come in.

- It was wrong of me to come.
- It was charming.

Charming of you.
Here, here, let me take this.

If tante rasmussen
should find out...

You know, I believe
you're scared of her.

Well, so am I.

Are you still stuck?

Well, I was, but hope
has come in now, hasn't she?

I've been making a sketch of
you. You want to see yourself?

Oh, yes!

Oh! I haven't any clothes on.

Clothes?

Do you think I model people
with their clothes on?

But how did you know
I was like that?

And just what does that mean?

I mean, it is me
and, and it isn't me.

- I mean, it's...
- Go on.

This begins to sound like
art criticism

of the highest order.

Oh, it's wonderful.

I mean,
it's the way I want to be.

- It's me as I dream of me.
- Oh, ho.

It's the girl
in the song of songs.

Who?

The girl in the song of songs.

- She's in the Bible.
- The Bible?

She's the girl
who feels in her heart

that somewhere the perfect love
is waiting for her.

She says,

"I sleep, but my heart waketh.

It is the voice
of my beloved saying,

open to me, my love,
my undefiled."

- Mercy on us!
- Oh, I know what she means.

I know it
because I feel it inside.

I mean, it is the voice
of my beloved.

- That's what I mean.
- Hold that pose.

Now, don't move.

Yes. Yes, that's wonderful.

Yes, there's my statue

and we'll call it
"the song of songs.“

- oh, really?
- Think of it. What luck!

To find just what
I've been looking for

in old rasmussen's book shop.

Take your clothes off.

- What?
- Take your...

Well, well, what's the matter?
What's the matter?

I can't take my clothes off.

Why? Why can't you?

Why, I...

I'd be undressed.

Well, what'd you expect to be?

All you need is the face.
Everything is in the face.

Oh, I see. You're going
to tell me how to do it now.

No, but, but...

Now, now, now, look here.

You mustn't think of me as
a man. Don't you realize that?

Why, a, a model means
no more to me than a tree.

All I see is the... the...
The thing she creates.

- Look, what's your name?
- Lily.

Well, now, Lily, don't irritate
me with silly prejudices.

I see you as an artist.
You must believe that, Lily.

I mean, uh, well, I mean,
y... you must believe that.

- Yes, I think I believe that.
- Good.

Well, now, come on.

You see that curtain? Well,
you can undress behind there.

Now, wait a minute,
wait a minute, take this

and put it around you.

There's a good girl.

Now, don't be long.

Oh, there you are.
That's right. That's right.

Come on. Step up there.

You can drop the smock.

It's cold.

Cold? Well, I hadn't noticed it.

Well, well,
you're going to stand like that?

What about the voice
of your beloved?

Why don't you listen to it?

It's pretty hard to listen

when you're as embarrassed
as I am.

Oh, you'll get used to it.

And what's more, I'm freezing.

You'll get used to that, too.

I don't understand
how I ever got into this.

Now, look here.

Wait a minute.
Wait a minute and take it easy.

You don't have to do this,
you know, if you don't want to.

Hm?

Well, alright. You put
your clothes on and go home.

No. I said I'd do it
and I will do it.

That's the way to talk.
Good. Good.

Lily?

Lily!

Close the window.

Lily!

An earthquake wouldn't wake her.

The brat!

Uh, Lily!

Lily?

Lily?

Lily!

Oh!

Alright. That's enough for now.

I'll get it. I'll get it.

Next the Clay
and then the marble.

- "The song of songs“ in marble.
- Was I alright?

Oh, you were fine at first.
You, uh, got a bit tired later.

Well, come in.

- Am I welcome?
- Oh, yes, of course.

Come in, baron. Come in.

I saw your light, so I thought
I'd drop in to see

what you were up to.

Well, I've been working.

Good. It's about time.

There's the beginning
of your statue, baron.

Mm, mm-hmm.

Not bad.

- Do you see any idea to it?
- She's a little beauty.

Oh. Heh. That's all you see, eh?

It's enough for me.

- Oh, is she, uh, here?
- Yes. Yes, she's in there.

Oh. Not, uh, not overdone?

- As good as this, really?
- Uh-huh.

Mm-hmm...

Ah. A pretty face as well
as the hidden charms.

I'd like to meet the young lady.

Hm. Oh, Lily.

This is colonel Von merzbach.

Lily. How do you do, my dear?

How do you do?

So you are to be our
young friend's inspiration, huh?

Oh, these artists
are privileged people.

I think I'd better go.

Oh, if I thought
I'd frightened you away,

I'd never forgive myself.

You know,
I'm not altogether an intruder.

The statue our young friend
is to do of you

will belong to me.

I've already paid him for it.

- But it's late. I must go.
- Oh, that's a pity.

But no doubt
we shall meet again.

Now that I've seen you,

the statue will interest me
more than ever.

- Goodbye.
- This...

Well, uh, tomorrow night?

- But...
- The same time.

A lovely girl.

Lovely.

Where have you been?

Where have you been?
Sneaking out of my house!

- I'll show you!
- No!

Where did you find her?

Oh, I, uh, I just found her.

She's not a professional model?

Oh, no, no.

She works in the book shop
across the street.

Why?

She interests me.

Well, of course, my dear
Richard, if there is any reason

why I shouldn't be interested...

Oh, none at all.
She means nothing to me.

Fine...

Because she interests me
very much.

Very much.

"Mrs. Rasmussen," he said,

"you have
a very beautiful daughter."

"She's my niece, “ I said.

Then he gives
his moustaches a twist

and he asks would I be offended

if he was to show his admiration

by making you a little present.

Uh, old fool, huh.

And him a colonel, too.

I said, “I don't allow my niece

to accept presents
from gentlemen."

But I says,

"she sometimes takes
a little rum with her tea."

And I said, "I see no harm
if you'd care to send her some."

And he...

It's the very best kind.

It comes from Jamaica.

I suppose you never heard
of Jamaica.

- No, tante rasmussen.
- It's a place in Asia minor.

A drop of rum in your tea

is supposed to build up
your strength.

Only the doctor says

you must take it
after you've got into bed

and be sure to keep well covered

as it's heating to the blood

and you're liable
to take a chill.

You can bring it now, my child.

Bring the bottle, too.

Uh-huh.

You're a good girl, Lily, huh.

If I'm severe with you
sometimes,

it's because I have
your own welfare at heart.

Uh, uh,
we've forgotten the sugar.

Uh, j... j... just
half a teaspoonful, dear.

Uh, thank you, darling.

You weren't very nice
to the baron yesterday morning.

Now, next time he comes, I want
you to smile and be civil.

- Yes, tante rasmussen.
- Goodnight, darling.

- You can go to bed now.
- Thank you. Goodnight.

Goodnight.

- Say your prayers.
- I will.

Jamaica.

- Aah!
- I know, I know.

Late again.
Third time this week.

Well, I don't see anything funny
about keeping a man waiting.

- And what's that?
- Flowers.

- Well, where did you get them?
- A man.

- Oh, the baron, I suppose.
- Oh, no.

- Who then?
- I don't know him.

I met him downstairs
in the street.

What, you mean to say
you accepted flowers

from a stranger in the street?

Oh, he was such a handsome man.

What's that got to do with it?

Nothing.

I never heard of such a thing.

A perfect stranger,
and you accept...

Why, why,
I... it's positively indecent.

- Jealous?
- I? Oh!

Certainly not.
It's nothing to me what you do.

You sounded jealous.

Don't be ridiculous.

Well, come on, come on.
Let's get to work.

Well?

Aren't they lovely?

Let's get to work.

- Oh, smell them.
- Oh, come here...

Look what you've done.

And I bought them for you.

Oh. Um, well, thanks.

Well,
let's get to work, shall we?

Oh, yeah. Alright.

Uh, ready, then.

Are you warm enough?

Yes.

I finally found the coal man.

Told him if he didn't deliver
some coal, I'd...

Told him I'd, uh...

Hm. Told him something.

No. You, uh,
you've turned too far.

No, this way.

No, look.

What's the matter?

Nothing.

J' Santa j'

j” Lucia j'j'

ha-ha. You were off-key.

Well, I can't sing, row the boat

and admire you
all at the same time.

Something has to go.

Why don't you throw me
overboard?

Now, that's a good idea.

Why didn't I think
of that before?

Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

Come on. Now, gently does it.

Careful. Oh.

Ah. Ah. Come on!

Oh, oh...

- Mm. You happy?
- What do you think?

Well, I think
you look a bit surly.

Yes, yes,
I see a distinct resemblance

to your aunt rasmussen.

- No...
- No, really.

It's striking.
Another rasmussen.

Good heavens,
what have I fallen in love with?

- Are you tired?
- No.

Well, come on. Let's take
that path up through the woods.

- Oh, yes. Let's get lost.
- Forever.

Forever.

Come on.

- Oh, excellency.
- Good day, frau rasmussen.

The young lady is...

I... is out on an errand,
excellency.

Ah. I've bought her some rum.

Oh, excellency.

Two whole jugs full.
She will be very grateful.

I want to talk to you.

Let's not beat about the bush,
frau rasmussen.

I have a library,
a very extensive library.

I require someone
to take care of it,

someone familiar with books.

Your niece could do it
very well.

My niece, excellency?

She would have to live
at my place.

I'm prepared to pay her
a very liberal salary.

Why, excellency,
my niece could hardly...

All the proprieties
would be observed.

Still, excellency, mm-hmm,

a young girl
in a bachelor's household?

A very rare edition.

Thousand marks?

That's a lot of money
for a book.

Understand me, frau rasmussen.

When I set my mind on a thing,
I usually get it...

One way or another.

Perhaps your excellency would be
interested in my other books.

Yes, no doubt, no doubt.

I shall be dropping in
from time to time.

Let me see.
What were we talking about?

Oh, yes. Your niece.

Oh! Oh!

- Oh, smell that.
- What? Mm?

Mm, the grass and the earth.

- Oh, smell that grass.
- Mm.

Ah... I don't smell anything.

Oh, you're so funny, darling.

Look what he calls grass.

No. You've got
to Bury your nose in it.

You've got to get
into the ground.

You've just got to be grass.

You've got spring fever.

Kiss me.

You know, I won't have you
squandering all that love

on grass and things.

What about me, hm?

When I put my hands
on the earth,

it's you I'm touching.

The wind on my face

is your kisses.

You are in everything
I think and feel and do...

And will be till I die.

Darling.

You know,
you frighten me sometimes.

Why?

Well, when I think if anything
should happen to us.

Oh, nothing is going to happen.

No, no, but still,
supposing something did.

People in love have had
to separate, you know?

Oh, but not we.

You'll be rich and famous

and I'll always pose for you.

And we'll have a fine home
and children.

And we'll grow old together.

And every day
I'll love you twice as much

as I did the day before.

"Set me as a seal
upon thine heart,

as a seal upon thine arm...

For love is strong as death."

That's fine.

The best you've ever done.

And the model?

She's well, thank you.

How's your romance coming on?

Look, baron, let's stick to art.

Oh, don't be offended, Richard.

Anyone can see
the girl adores you.

Well, I adore her, too.

- But, uh...
- But what?

Oh, nothing, nothing.

She has notions in her head
about eternal fidelity,

marriage and children.

Oh, it's all very awkward.

And you haven't thought
of marriage, naturally.

Well, I've a career to make
and no money, and...

Well, marriage is something...

Yes.

Well, what do you propose
to do about it?

Ha! What can I do?

If I go on with it, I'll be
doing her a grave injustice.

On the other hand...

Oh, it's the devil of a mess.

- Leave her.
- Huh! How would that help?

Well, it's kinder to do it now
than later.

The longer you're together,
the harder it'll be

for her to get over you.

Give her to me.

- To you?
- Give her to me, Richard.

I can make her happy
and you won't.

More, I can, I can educate her,

refine her to a great lady.

And I can provide for her, yes.

And love her.

This is the most preposterous...
Well, what do you take me for?

When you say that, are you
thinking of yourself or of her?

For a temporary paradise,
are you willing to kick

a helpless girl
into a permanent hell?

- No.
- Now, now. Hear me out.

I'm getting old, Richard,
and for some time now,

I've been thinking of resigning
from the army,

retiring to my place
in the country

to finish my life
among my books,

my paintings,
my statues and my farm.

It would amuse me

to devote the rest of my days

to, to her,

to mold the real Lily
just as you have this statue,

to make her my masterpiece,

and just as I think
you've made this yours.

How could I give her to you
even if I wanted to?

And I don't.

All I ask is that you step aside

and give me a chance to win her.

- Oh, t... this is obscene!
- Obscene?

Because I'm not as young as you?

Obscene because I consider
her welfare and you don't?

Obscene because I'm willing
to marry her and you're not?

Yes, stare.

That's how I want her.

Enough to make her
the baroness Von merzbach.

Now, tell me again
that what I'm asking is obscene.

Surprised, eh?

You didn't know I knew all about
your midnight excursions.

- Tante, I...
- You go to your lover.

And stay there!

- Stay there? Oh, tante...
- I warned you.

I've appealed
to your better nature.

I've scolded you.
Why, I've even beaten you.

And all to no avail. Now there's
nothing left but to put you out!

Oh, please. Maybe I was wrong.
But if you'd let me explain...

I'm not interested
in the details of your sin.

Sin? Oh, it wasn't sin.

Get out! Get out.

And don't come back.

Goodbye, tante rasmussen.

- Where's Richard?
- He's gone.

- Left today.
- Gone? Where?

- To Italy, I think.
- Italy?

He asked me to see you
and explain.

- When is he coming back?
- Not for a long time.

Perhaps, never.

I don't believe you.

Richard!

Richard!

There's a note for you.

I'm sorry.

Don't take it too hard,
my child.

It's unfortunate,
but waldow's an artist.

All he wanted of you
was this statue.

- Now it's finished.
- No.

I'm afraid it is so, my child.

No. I don't believe you.

- He isn't like that.
- You don't know him.

Waldow hates scenes.

That's why he asked me to stay
and see you.

No, he couldn't.
He loves me, I tell you.

He told me he loved me.

No, you're lying. You're lying!

Lily.

Lily, my poor child.

It will pass.

Everything passes.

I know.

Don't be afraid.

You're not alone.
I'll see you through this.

I'll do
everything in the world for you.

Everything. Everything.

Things he couldn't do,
wouldn't do.

Ah, now come. Come, Lily.

- Oh, leave me alone.
- Come, my dear.

Oh, no. Let me alone.
Let me alone.

Lily, you don't understand.

I love you, my dear,
and he didn't, you know?

You think
he's the only thing in life?

Trust me. Believe me.
I'll make a great lady of you.

No, no. No!

I'll make you my wife, Lily.
You shall be my heir.

I have no one else but you,
Lily, no one.

And I love you. I love you.

Oh, Richard. Richard.

Are you going to let him
spoil your life?

He didn't let you
disturb his, did he?

He took what he wanted
and was through with you.

Lily, my darling,

I want to give,
I want to give you everything.

Love, happiness,
position, money.

He didn't consider you
his equal. I do.

I'll make you
more than his equal.

I'll make you
the baroness Von merzbach!

Then when you see him again,

you can treat him
as he's treated you.

Patronize him, scorn him,
revenge yourself upon him.

He lied to you.
Don't let him crush you.

He lied to me.

What for? What for?

And only yesterday...

That was a thousand years ago,
my dear.

And I'll make you believe
it never happened.

The baroness.

This is
fraulein Von schwertfeger,

the, uh, housekeeper.

This, my dear,
is Edward Von prell.

- My felicitations, baron.
- Uh...

Baroness.

Edward works for us.
He's an agriculturalist.

Good blood, though,
his father carried a sword,

but he chose the plough.

Milord, may we extend
our heartfelt congratulations.

Very good, very good, very good.

- Supper is ready, baron.
- Huh.

No supper. No supper, no supper.

But, uh, another glass
of champagne

might be acceptable, huh?

To our wedding night.

Come, come. Drink up. Drink up.

I'm not used to champagne.

It'll make me dizzy.

All the better. All the better.

That's right.

I shall join you presently,
my love.

Are you looking for a book, sir?

Are you the sculptor
that lives across the street?

When I put my hands
on the earth,

it's you I'm touching.

The wind on my face

is your kisses.

You are in everything
I think and feel and do...

And will be till I die.

"Set me as a seal
upon thine heart,

as a seal upon thine arm,

for love is strong as death."

One, two, three.
One, two, three.

Easy. Relax.

One, two, three.
One, two, three.

One, two, three.
That's very nice.

One, two, three.
One, two, three.

One, two, three...

Watch your phrasing, please.

Your left hand, please.

It's very important.

Very good.

Now...

It's a little difficult, but...

Oh, fine! Very good.

And now fraulein toller
will favor us.

I'm pleased with you, Lily,
very pleased.

- What's the matter?
- Nothing. Our guests.

Oh, they don't matter.
They're nobodies.

I only brought them here
for you to practice on.

And you've done very well, Lily.

I'm very, very proud of you.

Next month I'm going to give you
a grand ball.

I'll invite anybody
of any consequence

to meet
the baroness Von merzbach.

- Aren't you pleased?
- Yes.

Heh! I'll invite waldow, too.

I want him to see you now.
He'll marvel at my work.

You want him to see you, huh?

- If you like.
- What's the matter with you?

You're always as cold
as waldow's statue.

Are you still in love with him?
Answer me.

I never think of him.

- Never.
- Huh.

I beg your pardon.

Huh? What's the matter?
What's the matter?

Shall I have
coffee served to the guests?

No, get rid of 'em.

Look here, why do you
follow us about all the time

sticking your nose in
at unexpected moments?

- Are you jealous of my wife?
- I might have been.

- Once.
- Well, then?

Oh, I've spoken to Von prell

about riding lessons
for your wife.

Riding lessons? Riding lessons?

You've apparently forgotten
our conversation.

The baroness
ought to be taught to ride.

- Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps.
- Everybody rides.

It might be awkward
when you show her off.

- Von prell's a good horseman.
- Very well. So he is.

- Alright. You see to it.
- At once.

Then I can tell the baron
you'll give her

the first lesson tomorrow?

- With pleasure.
- Thank you.

And, Edward, I'd be careful.

The baron is very jealous.

Why, I don't know what you mean.

I happen to know
the baroness admires you.

In fact, she's spoken of it.

You're not in earnest?

Oh, don't look so surprised.

After all, you're both young,
the baron is old, and...

Well, just be careful.

That's all.

Pleasant spot, isn't it?

Shall we sit here
and rest a bit, baroness?

You must not trouble so much
about me, Mr. Von prell.

Trouble about you, baroness?

Why, there's nothing
in this world I...

I wouldn't do for you.

Is this part
of my riding lesson?

You know...

I wish people were as free
to say and do

what they think as that water.

Oh, the water isn't free.

It is hemmed in by banks
on both sides.

You know what I mean.

Are you making love to me?

I love you. From the day
you came, I've loved you.

You were never out of
my thoughts. I've watched you.

I've even felt you in my arms...

Yes, I know all about that.

- That's what they call love.
- I know that you're unhappy.

I know that you...

I know that I want you.

Still I love you. Remember that.

- Perhaps, some day...
- Let's say no more about it.

Come on. We'll ride home.

Being the baroness Von merzbach

suits her very well, waldow.

I've done something of a job,
if I may say so.

- Uh-huh?
- Yes.

You modelled her in marble,

I modelled her in the flesh,
so to speak.

I'm a bit of an artist myself,
don't you think?

- She's happy, of course?
- Oh, of course, of course.

You'll see for yourself.

Aah...

Charming. Charming.

So good to see you again.

Waldow's changed,
don't you think?

Looks, uh, thinner.

A bit, uh, peaked.

I haven't seen you
since your return from Italy.

Or was it Italy?

Tell me about yourself.

There's nothing to tell.

Dinner is served.

Ah, dinner. That's the word.

Uh, will you take Lily,
my dear waldow?

The young first,

the old trailing behind.

Yes, there's a treat
in store for you, waldow.

Anything you say.
Mozart, meyerbeer, mendelssohn.

You wouldn't believe
what a musician she's become.

- Isn't that right, Lily?
- I'm afraid you exaggerate.

Oh, no, no.
You, you're too modest, my dear.

I tell you,
she plays beautifully. Anything!

You'll hear for yourself
after dinner.

You'll play for waldow,
won't you, my dear?

- If you like it.
- Aah! There's a wife for you!

Yes. And dance!

Uh, you, y... you haven't danced
with her yet, have you, waldow?

You will. Y... you'll dance
with waldow, won't you, my dear?

- If he likes.
- Of course, he likes!

Of course. Wouldn't you, waldow?

- Of course, sir.
- Of course!

You could talk to her about
anything you like, my dear boy.

Anything. Books, art...

Why, she speaks French
just like a native.

- Don't you, Lily?
- Hardly.

I tell you she does!
You hear me? Just like a native!

- I'm sure of it.
- Yes, she does.

And she reads everything,
everything.

All the latest books.

I bet she's ahead of you,
waldow.

Say, what... what are you
reading now, my love?

Nothing.

What's the matter with you two?

Not a word out of you
all evening.

Aren't you glad
to see each other?

You ought to be glad
to see waldow.

You owe everything to him.
Doesn't she, waldow?

I... I haven't told you
how much we owe to waldow.

- Have I, my love?
- Merzbach!

You remember, waldow,

your saying, mm,

"she has a notion in her head
about eternal fidelity,

marriage, children,
and all that.

Oh, it's a devil of a mess."

Lily, Lily, please, I...

"Stick to your art," say I,

“and let me have the girl.“

and, and he does, by gad!

Merzbach, this is monstrous!

Well, it's the truth, isn't it?

There's friendship for you.

The noble waldow
graciously steps aside

so that his old friend
might renew his youth.

Lily, Lily, I beg of you.

Was this what you brought me
down here for?

Well, it was the truth,
wasn't it?

Do her good to hear it.

Getting uppish anyhow.

Lily, Lily,
please listen to me, Lily.

No, no, no.
You must hear me, Lily.

He's twisted
and distorted everything.

Lily!

Lily, I had nothing
to offer you.

I was poor.

I thought there was something
better in store for you.

You've never been out
of my thoughts or my heart.

I love you.
I've always loved you.

Oh, let me take you away
from here. You're unhappy.

- Unhappy?
- You can't deny it.

You forget I'm a baroness.
I have everything.

Money, position,
jewels, servants.

I can play the piano
and speak French.

- What more could a woman ask?
- Oh, Lily, Lily.

Come away with me.

I can give you the one thing

you haven't got.

Love?

- I have that, too.
- Oh, you hate him.

- My husband, yes.
- What?

Are you surprised
that I have a lover?

- That's not true.
- Oh, isn't it?

There's his house.

- I don't believe it.
- Oh, don't you?

It doesn't matter.
I'm going to him now.

Lily, Lily,
why are you pretending?

You're lying! You're lying!

You have no lover except me.

It's me that you love. Me!

You? Love you?

Anything, anybody but you!

You'll see if I am lying!
You'll see!

Baroness!

Well?

Lily.

Close those shutters.

I can hardly believe it.

You've come. You've come to me.

- You love me?
- Love?

Yes, love.

That's what I've come for.

Love.

Lily, my darling.

I've dreamed of this.
I've hoped for it.

Milord! Milord! There's a fire.

- There's a fire in the lodge.
- What?

T... there's a fire, milord,
in the lodge.

Fire?

Well, put it out. Why don't you?

Get him out of here.
Give us a hand.

Are you alright? Leave us.

- Fool!
- What?

You've disgraced your husband
publicly.

He'll kill you for this!
Come on.

- Where are you taking me?
- I'm taking you out of here.

Yes, out of here.

You stay there.

There's a train
in about an hour.

If you'll write me care of
general delivery at the village,

I'll send you your things.

Thanks.

They... they told me!
They told me! Where is she?

- She's gone!
- Gone?

- I'll kill her, the...
- Yes, kill her!

And then hear them
laughing at you!

The old fool!
The lecherous old...

- Oh, stop!
- I'm waiting.

The old fool who married

a out of his class,
and then couldn't keep her.

Go on. Kill her
on the high road!

Go on! Go on!

- Twelve pfenniger.
- Not twelve, ten.

You keep this book six days.
That's twelve.

Five days I keep that book.

You couldn't read a book
in five days, Mrs. Schwarzbrod.

Even in six, you must have
skipped most of it.

I pay you ten and no more.
You will pay me the...

Oh, very well, Mrs. Schwarzbrod.
Give me the ten.

- We'll make it up next time.
- Ten is all I owe!

Any news?

Aren't you sick
of asking me that?

I've looked everywhere.

Even been down to the village
where she lived. Not a trace.

How much more time are you
going to waste on this business?

I don't know where else to look.

Have you tried the gutter?

That's where
girls like her end up!

Oh, very, very much.
Marvelous, marvelous.

Lily. Lily. Lily.

Fritz is really
a marvelous dancer.

Oh, now, Marie, you know...

Don't paw me in public,
gansfleisch. It isn't nice.

Oh, did you hear that?
Marie wants to be nice.

I am nice.

Lily's the one
who knows what's nice.

- Eh, Lily?
- Give me some more champagne.

You're coming
to my apartment later, Lily?

- No.
- But you promised.

I've changed my mind.

I said no!

What's the matter with you?

You go along laughing and
singing like everybody else,

then suddenly you freeze up
like this, and for no reason.

- You bore me.
- Oh, come, come, Lily.

Don't tell me men are human.
Are they, Lily?

They're the only animals
that have money

and buy champagne.

That's right.

Good evening, sir.

Good evening.
I, uh, I want a table, please.

Yes, sir.

Uh, listen, Lily.
"Johnny." That's for you.

- Come on. Be a good girl.
- Come on.

- Please, Lily.
- Come on.

- Do, Lily.
- Please.

- ho-ho-ho.
- That's the girl.

- Fine, fine.
- That's the girl.

Lily!

I want to talk to you.

- Oh, do you? Go ahead.
- Alone.

Look here!
This is a private party.

Oh, I beg your pardon, sir.

Excuse me. I'll be back.

- Yes?
- Lily, where have you been?

I've looked everywhere for you.

Now you've found me. So what?

- I want you to come with me.
- Where?

Oh, anywhere, anywhere.
Out of here. I must talk to you.

We have nothing to say
to each other.

Besides, I have an engagement.

Oh, forget your engagement
and come with me.

Have you got a cigarette?

- What's your name?
- Lily.

Now, Lily, don't irritate me

with silly prejudices.

I see you as an artist.

You must believe that, Lily,
I mean, uh...

Well, I mean,
y... you must believe that.

Yes, I think I believe that.

She's still the same.

She's a fool.

What is she waiting for?
What is she listening for?

What a fool I was.

Remember how ashamed I was
to take my clothes off?

I remember.

A silly country girl...

Always chattering about love.

No wonder you got tired of me.

I never got tired of you.

I've always wanted
to have you back.

Well, I'm back.

For tonight.

Lily, Lily, please. Please.

One makes mistakes,
one does things.

Heaven knows why.

I... I was wrong.

But, Lily, need I suffer forever
for one mistake?

I want you back. I want you back
as we used to be.

As we used to be?

That's funny.

There was a young girl once

who came up those stairs,

who loved you
with all her heart,

all her soul.

But she has nothing
to do with me.

There she is!

"The song of songs.“

don't you remember?

"I sleep, but my heart waketh.

It is the voice of my beloved."

"I sought him
whom my soul loved.

I sought him...

But I found him not.

I called him...

But he gave me no answer.

The watchmen that went
about the city found me.

They smote me
and they wounded me.

The keepers of the wall...

Took away my veil from me.

They took away my veil from me."

Lily. Lily, Lily, I hurt you
and I've been punished.

Oh, can't you forgive me?
I've never stopped loving you.

Then you love somebody
who's dead.

I'm dead! Do you hear? Dead!

I'm dead!

What right has she to live?

What right has she to live?

It's alright, my dear.
It's alright.

Let it go.
We'll begin again here.

Do you remember long ago

when we climbed a hill
into the sky?

Well, we'll climb again now

and find the sky, perhaps.
