Tip-tip, tip-top. 535 01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:46,360 And Christmas angels... 536 01:04:46,520 --> 01:04:52,520 And little children singing on the radio! 537 01:04:52,680 --> 01:04:55,440 Damn it! 538 01:04:57,200 --> 01:05:04,280 Why don't you say anything? I am a vomit, an ace! SEK 5,000 gone! 539 01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:09,880 Where did you get them from? Little miss Ensam is blackmailing. 540 01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:15,080 Phew, to do that against her old lovers... 541 01:05:15,240 --> 01:05:20,640 ...to make the new one healthy and healthy so that he can... 542 01:05:20,800 --> 01:05:23,880 ...paint many new paintings. 543 01:05:27,640 --> 01:05:33,440 So, now they got what they were worth. Now you are starting to be able to breathe here again. 544 01:05:33,600 --> 01:05:39,680 We would be so "happy". You have almost killed me as a painter. 545 01:05:39,840 --> 01:05:44,880 I wasn't born to make us happy, but to paint– 546 01:05:45,040 --> 01:05:48,280 – and I intend to start with that now! 547 01:05:57,480 --> 01:06:05,520 What will it be now? Does it not fit? Little Miss Alone leaves. 548 01:06:05,680 --> 01:06:11,600 Yeah, damn it, go for it and take the collar protector with you! 549 01:06:11,760 --> 01:06:14,760 And the nail file! 550 01:06:14,920 --> 01:06:22,960 And the marzipan pig and the whole damn thing the church! I'm done with your kind! 551 01:06:23,120 --> 01:06:28,560 You soulless wretches with your deluded notions of happiness… 552 01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:34,200 What the hell do you know about happiness, you who don't even know what suffering means?! 553 01:06:34,360 --> 01:06:41,000 It's lucky for you that you don't understand how empty of content your existence is! 554 01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:48,320 If you realized that, you would kill yourself you! Good luck, little Miss Lonely! 555 01:06:53,360 --> 01:06:56,560 Then I drank... 556 01:06:56,720 --> 01:07:02,200 ...for two days straight until I passed out. 557 01:07:03,280 --> 01:07:07,480 When I woke up she had collected her things. 558 01:07:07,640 --> 01:07:13,480 On the table were the keys and a ring which she had received from me once... 559 01:07:13,640 --> 01:07:18,000 ...the only present I ever gave her. 560 01:07:19,320 --> 01:07:22,400 We never saw each other again. 561 01:07:27,760 --> 01:07:31,000 You must think I behaved like hell. 562 01:07:31,160 --> 01:07:38,200 Yes, it was unnecessary for us to part so, but that's my only regret. 563 01:07:38,360 --> 01:07:44,840 You see, I enjoy my snails. We belong together, so to speak. 564 01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:49,000 Now that makes some sense what i do. 565 01:07:49,160 --> 01:07:54,800 -Is the portrait for sale? - No, it is not. 566 01:07:56,280 --> 01:08:02,400 It's the best thing I've done, but that is not why I want to keep it. 567 01:08:03,480 --> 01:08:09,760 But wait a minute – I did some sketches. I have them here somewhere. 568 01:08:13,240 --> 01:08:16,520 This is actually the best of them. 569 01:08:18,080 --> 01:08:23,160 - Take it. -Thanks, but that's too kind... 570 01:08:23,320 --> 01:08:29,360 No, I don't want to be paid anything. It wouldn't feel so nice. 571 01:08:29,880 --> 01:08:32,760 ...and forgive every word... 572 01:08:32,920 --> 01:08:39,160 -Who is it? -Willy Borge. Dagmar has an album. 573 01:08:39,320 --> 01:08:46,600 I wouldn't have believed her about that. He and I were school mates - disgusting. 574 01:08:46,760 --> 01:08:53,840 -Did he cheat on you at the school dance? - No, really not! 575 01:08:54,000 --> 01:08:58,200 -When was he popular? -At the beginning of the war. 576 01:08:58,360 --> 01:09:04,360 - Did she have a whole album with him? - Yes, but many girls probably do. 577 01:09:04,520 --> 01:09:08,680 -What are you going to do? – "Borge"... 578 01:09:08,840 --> 01:09:14,160 "Borge, Willy – Advertising Assistant." It must be him. 579 01:09:14,320 --> 01:09:21,160 - You're not going to call him, are you? - You lose nothing by trying. 580 01:09:25,000 --> 01:09:30,360 Sorry, are you that Willy Borge which in the plug was called the pea? 581 01:09:30,520 --> 01:09:34,920 - Yes, it's the pea. - Well, I wonder... 582 01:09:35,080 --> 01:09:39,920 Have you known a girl? whose name is Dagmar Brink? 583 01:09:40,080 --> 01:09:44,280 What say... Yes, it's hard to explain. 584 01:09:44,440 --> 01:09:49,400 Can I come to your house? Fine, I'll come. 585 01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:56,120 I met her the first time at a charity soiree circa 1943. 586 01:09:56,280 --> 01:10:01,800 I was a popular singer then. She went around selling badges. 587 01:10:01,960 --> 01:10:05,320 Forgive me. - Borge speaking. 588 01:10:06,400 --> 01:10:10,680 It is himself. - This one is good. 589 01:10:10,840 --> 01:10:18,760 Tonight? It's a little hard to say now. - There may be better offers. 590 01:10:18,920 --> 01:10:22,640 what did you say No, but I can call. 591 01:10:22,800 --> 01:10:26,600 No, I mean... I just mean... 592 01:10:26,760 --> 01:10:30,080 This can go on for a long time. 593 01:10:33,320 --> 01:10:35,920 Yes, exactly that. 594 01:10:36,080 --> 01:10:41,920 It doesn't matter that they are stupid, but they shouldn't talk much. 595 01:10:42,080 --> 01:10:47,840 what did you say No, I have no bean here! 596 01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:51,680 Why are wives so jealous? 597 01:10:57,240 --> 01:11:00,280 Now she's crying too. 598 01:11:09,800 --> 01:11:13,360 Then it was just a matter of pulling the plug... 599 01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:22,240 Dagmar... To make the story short so I bought all the brands she had. 600 01:11:22,400 --> 01:11:28,200 Afterwards I suggested we go come here and listen to my intros. 601 01:11:28,360 --> 01:11:33,960 The beans usually like them, and that is the main thing. 602 01:11:34,120 --> 01:11:37,840 They always received an album as a present. 603 01:11:39,360 --> 01:11:46,360 These are my best recordings. Receive it as a memory of the evening. 604 01:11:48,280 --> 01:11:55,280 -How many girls have had it? - None, Dagmar. I swear it. 605 01:11:55,440 --> 01:11:59,200 I am a very lonely person... 606 01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:02,960 ...lonely and incurably romantic. 607 01:12:03,120 --> 01:12:06,280 Maybe that's why I'm lonely. 608 01:12:06,440 --> 01:12:11,640 Our generation am so afraid of the romantic. 609 01:12:11,800 --> 01:12:18,040 We'd rather jump out of a window than recognize our need for tenderness. 610 01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:23,640 - We may not have anything. -Yes. You yourself, for example? 611 01:12:23,800 --> 01:12:29,320 I probably have such a need, but I don't feel it for everyone. 612 01:12:29,480 --> 01:12:33,160 - You mean me. -Among others. 613 01:12:33,960 --> 01:12:39,480 -How long have you been married? -For three years. 614 01:12:39,640 --> 01:12:42,680 Why aren't you happy? 615 01:12:42,840 --> 01:12:48,560 - I think I should go now. - I'm not going to ask stupid questions like that anymore. 616 01:12:49,440 --> 01:12:54,760 -Is it very responsive here? -No. Are you going to scream? 617 01:13:47,480 --> 01:13:53,640 - No, continue. You play well. - I never came any further. 618 01:13:53,800 --> 01:13:59,600 - What was it due to? - The inspiration ran out. 619 01:14:02,400 --> 01:14:05,440 What was his name? 620 01:14:05,600 --> 01:14:09,320 You are wrong. It wasn't him. 621 01:14:12,320 --> 01:14:18,040 That's what's wrong with you. You've never really loved anyone. 622 01:14:18,200 --> 01:14:20,800 Not? 623 01:14:21,520 --> 01:14:27,240 No, not happily anyway. I see it in your eyes. 624 01:14:40,240 --> 01:14:43,240 Do you want to call for a car? 625 01:14:43,400 --> 01:14:46,520 I could make you so happy. 626 01:14:46,680 --> 01:14:49,040 Call now. 627 01:14:52,880 --> 01:14:59,480 I called for a car and drove her home to Stocksund as well. 628 01:14:59,640 --> 01:15:05,320 - I who never drive a bean home. - So it wasn't a successful evening? 629 01:15:05,480 --> 01:15:11,520 On the contrary. It doesn't sound wise, though I'm glad nothing happened. 630 01:15:11,680 --> 01:15:17,440 It was a nice memory. And such memories are not spoiled. 631 01:15:17,600 --> 01:15:23,280 - Was that the only time you met? - No, but it took over a year... 632 01:15:23,440 --> 01:15:30,360 I had been on standby tour and came limping to Centralen one evening. 633 01:15:38,080 --> 01:15:43,880 -Dagmar, why are you standing here? - I have just said goodbye to my husband. 634 01:15:44,040 --> 01:15:51,240 Then we'll go out and have a nice evening. I've been bored for a whole month. 635 01:15:54,640 --> 01:15:58,440 –Nice bar cabinet, huh? -Yes. 636 01:15:58,600 --> 01:16:05,040 950 bagis - but "Torpstugan" was sold out in 40,000 copies. What do you want? 637 01:16:05,200 --> 01:16:11,120 - Thanks, I won't have any more now. - A glass of champagne would be nice, wouldn't it? 638 01:16:11,280 --> 01:16:16,960 - Don't beat anyone up for me. - All right, as you wish. 639 01:16:26,800 --> 01:16:30,400 You...how long will your husband be gone? 640 01:16:33,480 --> 01:16:38,760 Forever. We shall part. It was decided tonight. 641 01:16:38,920 --> 01:16:44,480 Yes, you say so! Yes, it can happen... 642 01:16:44,640 --> 01:16:49,520 - It feels strange, of course? -Yes. 643 01:16:49,680 --> 01:16:55,480 - It's great that you're not the reason. - But you are. 644 01:16:56,560 --> 01:17:03,560 When I got home that night then my husband sat and waited for me. 645 01:17:04,440 --> 01:17:11,720 Oh, then! Yes... That's how it goes. It is not hard to guess what he thought. 646 01:17:12,960 --> 01:17:16,520 He should have known me better. 647 01:17:16,680 --> 01:17:22,560 But he never really trusted me. I wonder what caused it. 648 01:17:22,720 --> 01:17:27,480 Then it was unnecessary that you were so honorable last time. 649 01:17:27,640 --> 01:17:33,080 - Not for myself. -No. No, I mean for his part. 650 01:17:33,240 --> 01:17:37,360 Then we have one more time... 651 01:17:37,520 --> 01:17:41,200 That's what I thought when you came. 652 01:17:41,360 --> 01:17:48,640 Well, you say so. Should I not take and chill the champagne anyway? 653 01:17:48,800 --> 01:17:54,200 No, but if you want to call for a car. 654 01:17:54,360 --> 01:18:00,240 -What do you say? - It was stupid of me to go along. 655 01:18:00,400 --> 01:18:06,240 You must not walk away from me again! Me have longed for you so madly! 656 01:18:06,400 --> 01:18:12,720 Every day you have been in my thoughts. Don't you understand that I love you? 657 01:18:12,880 --> 01:18:16,280 We both know that's not true. 658 01:18:16,440 --> 01:18:22,240 There is only one human that you have always loved – yourself. 659 01:18:22,400 --> 01:18:25,720 Why do you enjoy hurting me? 660 01:18:25,880 --> 01:18:31,880 It doesn't suit you melodramatic. Call for a car now. 661 01:18:35,560 --> 01:18:41,320 Yes, there was nothing else to do. But that time she had to go alone. 662 01:18:41,480 --> 01:18:44,840 And you were a beautiful memory richer. 663 01:18:45,000 --> 01:18:48,480 There can be too many of those as well. 664 01:18:48,640 --> 01:18:54,240 - Yes, it was a strange bean. -Why? She wasn't in love with you. 665 01:18:54,400 --> 01:19:01,880 Well, that's what she was, it showed themselves. But don't tell anyone about this. 666 01:19:02,040 --> 01:19:08,880 The fact is that Dagmar killed herself because she was madly in love with me. 667 01:19:09,040 --> 01:19:12,280 - No, Willy... - Yes, you! 668 01:19:12,440 --> 01:19:19,200 The night before she died, a friend called. He was sitting with two crusts at a bar. 669 01:19:19,360 --> 01:19:26,240 I rushed there, because one was redhead. Dagmar played at the bar. 670 01:19:26,400 --> 01:19:31,880 The beans were nice. They had just returned from abroad. 671 01:19:32,040 --> 01:19:38,720 We sat there for a while. When Dagmar was finished the redhead called out to her. 672 01:19:38,880 --> 01:19:44,720 They were old schoolmates. Then we all continued to my house. 673 01:19:44,880 --> 01:19:48,840 - Wasn't it terrible? - No... 674 01:19:49,000 --> 01:19:53,800 – Donut or cacao? -Don't you have any brandy? 675 01:19:53,960 --> 01:19:59,720 I managed pretty well. I have always been good at German. 676 01:20:00,360 --> 01:20:03,600 You mean...that you worked for them? 677 01:20:03,760 --> 01:20:08,080 Yes, otherwise you would have had hell. 678 01:20:08,240 --> 01:20:15,440 It's easy to sit here and frown on the nose and talk about opportunism. 679 01:20:15,600 --> 01:20:19,280 I've always liked Germans. 680 01:20:21,040 --> 01:20:25,600 -What did you work on? -Both one and the other. 681 01:20:25,760 --> 01:20:30,840 Nothing that would fit your clean little fingers. 682 01:20:31,000 --> 01:20:37,800 But when you live in the middle of shit you won't be so afraid to take it. 683 01:20:44,240 --> 01:20:47,240 Another glass, huh? 684 01:20:47,400 --> 01:20:53,600 I have drunk stronger men than you under the table, of all nationalities. 685 01:20:53,760 --> 01:20:59,400 -Not just drunk, huh? -Mind your own business, brother. 686 01:21:09,040 --> 01:21:15,040 - We'll go to my house later, huh? - No, I don't think so, kid. 687 01:21:15,200 --> 01:21:19,000 I don't have my time at that price. 688 01:21:24,200 --> 01:21:27,960 You, then...? How have you been? 689 01:21:28,880 --> 01:21:31,760 Well, then... 690 01:21:32,880 --> 01:21:36,400 You look like you, Dagmar. 691 01:21:36,560 --> 01:21:40,080 I can't say the same. 692 01:21:41,480 --> 01:21:46,160 Can't you play something a little more cheerful? Have a samba. 693 01:21:46,320 --> 01:21:51,800 - You know samba, Willy? - The main thing is that I hold you. 694 01:21:59,040 --> 01:22:05,080 I'm crazy about red hair. Hope they go soon. 695 01:22:05,240 --> 01:22:09,600 -Are you sleepy? -No. are you 696 01:22:09,760 --> 01:22:15,200 - Do we have to wait until then? - It probably makes a better impression. 697 01:22:15,360 --> 01:22:21,320 - Now I want to make a bad impression. - Yes, in that case... 698 01:22:33,080 --> 01:22:41,000 As soon as we left, Dagmar stopped playing.
