DESPERATE LOVE

- Hello, Meeber. - Hello, Tom.

A ticket to Chicago.

- Are you going to Chicago? - Not me. One of my daughters.

- A round trip ? - No, one way.

Goodbye Mom.

- Goodbye, dad. - Goodbye, Carrie.

- Kiss your sister. - Goodbye, Carrie.

Bye. Don't forget our secrets.

By car !

Allow me to help you.

- THANKS. - It was nothing.

Were you visiting Columbia?

- I live there. - No !

You look like you're straight off of Michigan Boulevard.

Is it forbidden to talk to strangers?

We are strangers before being introduced.

He almost broke you, huh?

I introduce myself: "Drouet." My father was French.

Charles S. S like smile. Charlie for friends.

It's serious. It's nothing. Really.

Run your finger over it. Go for it.

Keep it. I have heaps of them.

Put it on your mirror with your postcards.

Here is a trick that I learned during my first trips.

My sister went to Chicago without knowing anyone.

She knew Sven, a slaughterhouse worker.

And they got married.

She has a son and an apartment with running water.

- Not bad. - You should see his letters.

And you hope to do the same?

Even better! I finished my studies.

And your physique will be a serious ally!

South Chicago.

No, it's the slums here.

- They told me to get off here. - I don't have your address.

Goodbye, Mr. Drouet.

Here, Sven.

Hello, Gussie.

I walked back.

If it's to save money, that's silly.

I told you to take it off the rent.

- You'll tear your skin off. - If only.

I hate my job.

I could spend 100 years there without having anything.

I can't even buy a coat.

I don't have anything to talk to you about. You live here, you work.

Win what you want but I want my $5.

The battery does not drop. Gotta go faster.

You can't see anything here!

Want to free your machine?

Take your foot off the pedal, fool!

Do not move. Don't shoot at all.

Spin the wheel slowly.

So. It just went through the nail.

Back to work, everyone. It's nothing.

Wash your hands and go about your day.

- Come see me on the way out. - Well sir.

It's okay, Carrie.

Here's a dollar for your day. Keep the change.

Sign. Put an X if you can't write.

I'll tell you when to come back.

- You don't know where I live. - I will find.

Hey, you come closer.

- Do you have an apron? - Yes.

Follow me.

I accompany you?

I can't go home. I'm fired. I have to find a job.

Thank you, Anna.

- He's going down. - THANKS.

Apples know me, but you're a peach.

Oh, hello. Hello, Sally.

Oust! Where have you been?

- At my sister's house. - No ?

I hadn't forgotten about you, Sally, but I was overwhelmed.

- My name is Carrie Meeber. - Of course, Carrie.

- It was a joke. - Mr. Drouet...

Me, it's Charlie, the king of charm. What's new ?

Is there work here?

- For you ? - I lost my job.

No, they don't hire women.

I have been everywhere. I have not found anything.

You look down, Carrie.

What happened to the girl on the train?

I worked in a shoe factory.

I caught my finger in the machine.

- No ? - I do not know what to do.

It's not a job for you.

- It hurts ? - Not really.

Let me see. Give me your hand. Come on.

- Here, $10. - Oh no.

Take them. Buy yourself a dress.

Like that, it's a broom that we're going to entrust to you.

- I can't pay you back. - Later, yes.

- I want half. - No.

It will help you find a job.

I have work to finish before closing time.

Go home. Do you have a nice outfit?

- Yes. - Put it on. We are going out tonight.

Been to Fitzgerald's? You will dine like a queen.

7 p.m. Adams Street. Everyone knows.

Come by taxi. 7 p.m.

You can't sew anymore.

You could have been careful though! What will Sven say?

He didn't fire me.

He gave me two weeks salary in advance. Take.

- I'll give it to Sven. - Where does this money come from?

The boss gave it to me.

My stuff.

- Who dropped them here? - Anna Yankowski.

You were fired.

Who gave you that money, Carrie?

You come home tomorrow.

I did not do anything wrong. It was a loan.

- Of a man ? - Yes.

Sven won't want that money.

If you accept it, you will regret it.

Miss !

Oh, miss!

Get out. Come out, please.

- Can I help you ? - Maybe.

- I have to find someone. - Do you see it ?

No.

- He must be at the restaurant. - There ?

If I were you, I wouldn't cross the bar.

Oh, I'm sorry.

The entrance is right next to it.

There.

THANKS.

A little thing like that breaks your monotony.

Sorry, we do not accept single women.

I just want to leave a message.

I'm listening to you.

Could you tell Mr. Drouet,

to Mr. Charlie Drouet, that I could not free myself?

That I can neither dine with him nor wait for him.

And please return this note to him.

- What's going on, Louis? - I don't know.

- Who are you waiting for ? - Mr. Drouet, Charlie Drouet.

- Let's see if he's here. - I'm early.

In his place, I would be too.

Lets go see.

I'd rather leave that to him.

- Were you going to dine here? - Yes.

In this case, wait for it.

- It's a very good restaurant. - I know.

- It shows. - Carrie. You are ahead.

- Good evening, Mr. Hurstwood. - Mr. Drouet, good evening.

You have a great memory!

I haven't come for months.

Follow me.

Louis.

- A table for Mr. Drouet. - THANKS.

This way, please.

Finally, be reasonable.

Do not be afraid. Put it away.

It's just a loan. We don't talk about it anymore.

Buy yourself a coat. You need a coat.

You'll pay me back when you find a job.

The server will take it from you.

Attention.

That's settled.

You're really nice.

We all benefit, one day, from the help of someone.

Chicago's leading ladies come here.

Who gives them all they have? Their husbands. Or their friends.

No.

The little.

Your first smile.

Let's have a good evening.

- Champagne ? - From Mr. Hurstwood.

Well thank you. Thank you so much.

It's kind of him.

You smile. You should see each other.

Look at you. Smile again.

It's up there. Both windows. You see ?

Why don't you come up and see?

- No. - I'll tell the taxi to wait for me.

If it doesn't suit you, you leave.

I'm going to take the tram.

But your sister doesn't want you anymore.

Want to go back to the farm?

You love Chicago. You want to stay.

My home is cozy.

I'm going on the road for 10 days.

I can totally take the 11 p.m. train.

If you like it, sit down.

By the time I get back, you may have found accommodation.

This is the key.

That makes more sense.

- Thank you for everything. - It was nothing.

Wait for me here, please.

- Where are you going ? - Take my bag.

I'm ready. Take off your hat and get comfortable.

You look terrified.

- I'm. - What are you afraid of?

I have an idea. If I served us two small beers?

We could turn on the gramophone to relax you.

Alright, fine, I'm leaving.

I was considering taking the next train.

No, I'm leaving.

Good night.

Take care of yourself.

- Good evening, Hurstwood. - Good evening, Judge.

Mr Hurstwood.

Good evening.

I wanted to thank you for the champagne.

- You liked ? - Yes a lot.

- To your young friend too? - She had never tasted it.

- You go ? - No.

I'm going to spend a night or two at the Imperial.

Three, maybe.

I offer you a drink?

No, I was leaving. Again.

Heard. General tour.

It's me who treats.

Good morning.

Where do you live ?

Just there.

Do you want an apple?

No ?

What's your name ?

You must have a name.

So what's your name?

I can't talk to you.

So !

I'm all beautiful.

I want to grow my mustache.

Do you think a mustache would look good on me?

What happens to you ?

- When are you going to marry me? - When...

But when you want. You know it well.

Neighbors...

Everyone is aware. There are gossip.

It is unacceptable.

- We'll have to shut them up. - When ?

When ? Good question. Exactly, let's talk about it.

We can't get married today.

And tomorrow is Saturday.

Nor next week. I'm on the move.

On my return. What do you say ?

I'm going back to Minnie's. I'll tell him... I don't know what.

If you want to marry me, come get me.

As if I were living with my own.

Carrie, this is silly. Everything will be alright.

Wait, you'll see. Everything will go as you want.

- I'll bring you a present. - I will not be there.

I'll bring one back anyway.

Come on, come on. It's fine, come on.

Cheer. Come on. Excuse me.

Oh, Mr. Hurstwood. Good morning. Nice to see you again.

Oh, hello, Mr. Drouet.

What do you think of the wolf?

- I called it Columbia. -Columbia.

Like Columbia City, Missouri.

- That's where Carrie is from. - Carrie?

The young woman with whom I had dined.

- And who got the wrong door. - She's transformed.

- You are expected ? - No, I was strolling.

I live next door. Come see her.

Well...

She will be happy to see you.

Come. I live really close by.

- I do not want to disturb. - She'll be happy to see you.

There you are, darling. Do you remember Mr. Hurstwood?

- Ho are you doing ? - I was in the neighborhood.

Look at. He'll keep you company when I'm on the go.

- I was going home. - Carrie, no.

Mr. Hurstwood is an old friend. Do not worry.

Sit down, George.

I got some good bourbon here.

He is shaking.

I'll put it on your bed.

Make yourself at home, George.

You will love this puppy, Mrs. Drouet.

Sometimes dogs are more receptive than people.

Can I help myself to a glass of sherry?

Yes.

Can I serve you one too?

Yes thanks.

Assets.

- Mr. Hurstwood, I lose. - Wait, Carrie.

He is nervous. He doesn't know what we're going to do.

- Really ? - Play it, Charlie.

Which makes a third. The game is over.

Now it's up to you.

Absolutely.

He didn't count.

We give you the 10 of diamonds, we take the rest.

Gosh, I can't believe it.

- I won. - There were two of you.

I don't care, I won.

- Do you like winning? - Yes.

She learned quickly. I did not expect that.

I believe she can do anything.

What a great evening. Thanks, partner.

Come see us again. Your visit has delighted us. Right, sweetheart?

Absolutely. It made us very happy.

THANKS. I have two theater tickets for Friday evening.

- I give them to you. - Friday, I will be in Duluth.

Keep them. Take someone with you.

Thank you so much.

When you return, I invite you to Fitzgerald's.

How nice. I'll buy you a dress.

Good evening.

Good evening, Mr. Hurstwood.

George.

Why don't you take her to the theater?

Well...

We'll see you when you get back.

- Good evening, George. - Good night.

You could say he has class.

He hangs out all over Chicago and he spends the evening here.

What is it, you didn't like it?

Yes, I liked it.

Glad you enjoyed the evening.

Hello, George.

-Julia, Jessica. - Good evening, father.

- This is John Connell. - Delighted.

He walked Jessica out of the club.

What club ?

The Park Club Thursday Quadrille, George.

Oh I see.

Can I buy you a drink?

No thanks.

- Good evening, Mr. Hurstwood. Jessica. - Good evening, John.

- Good night, Mrs. Hurstwood. - Good evening.

Good night, Father.

I'd appreciate it if you only sell your booze at the bar.

- Which Connell? - Those who have the big villa.

- Oh. - And Green Acres in Waukesha.

- I know his father, Slim. - Like a bartender!

It's one of the best families.

And he's interested in Jessica.

Jessica is 16 years old.

The age of good dating.

You enter like a servant. Be worthy.

I offered him a drink. It is not worthy, perhaps?

Do you always have to remind us of your bar?

You're uncomfortable unless you have a bottle in your hand!

- Good evening dad. - Good evening, George.

You're not going out at this time.

Your friends can raid the drugstore without you.

- You guys quarreled again. - No.

How did it go today?

GOOD. I'm in the semi-finals.

I got all 3 sets. Six-four, eight-six, six-love.

Cheer.

Dad. I was considering...

To go find friends.

To talk to my coach about tomorrow's game.

Don't make me play the tampon.

I lied to you, dad.

I don't want to see the coach.

I have a girlfriend.

Who ?

Just a girl.

She is very beautiful.

You can see her tomorrow.

But she is waiting for me.

You are lucky.

Go ahead.

THANKS. Thank you very much, dad.

- Oh, Mr. Hurstwood. - Good morning.

- Come in. - I brought you a book.

THANKS.

The Complete Hoyle for your salvation.

If Charlie mistakes a king for an ace, read this book.

- He's there ? - He left for Duluth this morning.

But I thought he wasn't supposed to leave until Friday.

Come in, please.

THANKS.

Do you have a theater partner?

I have no one to invite.

- How about inviting me? - All right.

What do you read ?

A play put on by Charlie's club.

- Do you have a role? - Charlie, yes.

- He plays the duke's friend. - Charlie, everyone's friend.

- Does he have a sword? - He wears a hat with a feather.

It's probably just as deadly.

Nothing for a pretty young girl?

- Yes, there is Gwendolyn. - Is she very pretty?

Yes, we say so.

Try your luck. You would be ideal.

I would be too scared.

Gwendolyn speaks so well. And I've never set foot in a theater.

- I can help you. - How ?

Let's see.

1st act. First scene.

Mr Hurstwood,

you called me Madame Drouet the other evening.

I don't know what Charlie told you.

- And what you think of me. - How lovely you are.

I want to behave like Madame Drouet.

And I have no intention of changing.

Thank you for the book and for your visit.

I offended you.

I am deeply sorry.

I forgot good manners.

Charlie and I will be delighted to receive you.

THANKS.

Will you forgive me?

Yes.

Will you allow me to escort you to the theater on Friday,

Mrs. Drouet?

THANKS.

"Thank you, no" or "thank you, yes"?

Yes.

Mr. Fitzgerald. He is in the office.

- Get me a Mumms. - Well sir.

Good evening, Mr. Fitz.

Hello, George.

- Were there people tonight? - As per usual.

I have been to the theatre. I saw a beautiful room.

Camille.

- With Julia? - No.

How is Julia?

- GOOD. - You see me delighted.

I went by every evening, I didn't see you there!

Business seems to suffer?

I meant that maybe there was a problem with you.

No more, no less than usual.

consider yourself happy

and thank God for his goodness.

Here, the goodness of God. I put it in the trunk?

George, what do you want? What are you looking for ?

All.

I do not like it. In a man of your age, it's dangerous.

We can not have everything. You are well off.

You have a beautiful villa, a good job, two beautiful children.

And Julia is an amazing wife.

Wait. I would like to table this.

Do you play poker, Mr. Fitz?

It's set for 11 a.m.

I don't need cash until 11:00.

I see.

Sometimes talking is good

especially with an older man.

Do you want to accompany me?

- There is nothing to say. - George.

Camille... It's not a burlesque show?

No, Fitz. No not at all.

A man who works in spirits must be careful.

Good night.

Franklin and Pine.

Excuse me.

I didn't know he was taken.

Franklin and Pine.

Don't get up, Joe.

- I missed you ? - Yes.

So much the better. You too.

George. Mr Hurstwood.

George.

During the play, I was watching you,

you had tears in your eyes.

I cry at each performance of Camille.

Carrie.

Why didn't she tell him the truth?

He wouldn't have left her

and she might not have died.

Carrie, I need to see you again.

I don't know.

He comes back tomorrow?

- Yes. - What will I become ?

I am grateful to you.

Enough to ? For making me so happy?

Should this be the end?

Do you like it, Carrie?

For the poor, everything is more complex.

We like people who are good to us.

Do you like it?

Carrie.

Nothing matters as much as you!

I should have waited to meet you.

But I didn't and I'm taken.

Will you come see me tomorrow?

Tomorrow ? But he's coming back tomorrow morning from Duluth.

At what time ?

I'm expecting him at 11 a.m.

Carrie... don't leave me.

It must.

- Is the clock on time? - More or less.

- Can't it be right? - Yes, sir.

- Oil me that joint. - Yes sir.

- Good morning. - Mr. Brant.

- A little whiskey. - Well sir.

- Another train wreck. - Or ?

Close to Seattle. Biggest for a long time.

The Western Express missed the turn.

There are four dead and 20 injured.

- Gus, come see. - Yes sir.

Please drop this note off at Ogden Avenue.

- Be there before 11 a.m. - Alright.

Good morning ! Here I am ! The exhausted traveler returns home.

- You missed me ? - Good morning.

How I missed you.

Well, not that much.

A waitress from Rocky Falls

was crazy about your Charlie.

I was joking. She was no match for it.

- Charlie, I have to go out. - I just arrived.

- I have to go see my sister. - She is feeling bad ?

- I don't know exactly. - What's the matter ?

Who matters more, Minnie or me?

- I come with you. - No.

Fine, but meet me at 12:30.

- Heard. - At Fitzgerald's.

Let's go somewhere else.

All right. Or ?

- I don't know. - Fitzgerald's. 12:30 p.m.

I am so hungry.

I ate Indian. Roasted dog.

I brought you presents. Silk stockings!

- You came. - It surprises you ?

I didn't know if you wanted it enough.

I so wanted to come.

So.

It's better like that.

- He has returned ? - Yes.

I can't live without you.

You know it well.

I cannot live without you.

Carrie... leave him. And come live with me.

All right.

Tell me you love me.

I love you with all my heart.

I have one thing I want to tell you once and for all, George.

- What is it about ? - From Charlie.

I'm so ashamed of my life.

It's over, Carrie. No need to come back to this.

I promise to be a loving and faithful wife.

Carrie...

I have to go on a trip on Saturday.

Will you accompany me?

Yes.

Carrie...

Yes ?

What is it, George?

Trust me.

I trust you.

- Really ? - Of course.

- I have to go. - To find Charlie?

Yes, at your restaurant.

- How's your sister ? - GOOD.

GOOD ?

It was nothing.

So much the better.

- You are hungry ? - No thanks.

Let's see what they have.

How about a trout?

- Yes, it's true. - What is true?

That she has nothing. That Minnie has nothing.

Hello, George.

And what would you say...

An omelet?

- George... - Who?

-Charlie. - I'm Charlie.

And Charlie is jealous.

Have you seen each other a lot?

I have something to tell you.

I too have something to tell you.

He is not from our world.

And I don't like a husband courting my sweetheart.

He is kind and honest. But be careful.

- He is not married. - Of course he's married.

Carrie.

He is not married.

For years. He has children.

- I told you. - No !

Sir, Mrs. Hurstwood is in the restaurant.

THANKS.

Julia, are you coming to have lunch with me?

I have already had lunch.

But, I'd gladly take a whisky.

I will join Ms. Hurstwood.

- A Bourbon. - Well sir.

What brings you here?

A young girl.

Pardon ?

The one you found at the park.

And that you took to the theater.

And by boat, Sunday.

Give me back my freedom, Julia.

I will give you everything you want.

What do you have to give me? Everything is in my name.

You are in no position to haggle.

So what are you doing here?

I came to make sure that won't happen again.

If you see her again, I'll go see Mr. Fitzgerald.

THANKS.

Will you leave her?

Unlike you, I make no threats or promises.

But I make promises.

And I hold them.

Did Mrs. Hurstwood stop at this table?

I do not know. I was going to take the order, they left.

Mr Hurstwood. There's a taxi calling for you.

- Mr. Hurstwood? - Yes.

My client would like to talk to you for a moment. A young woman.

Carrie.

What is it ?

- It's true ? - What is true?

Your wife ? Your children?

- Carrie. - It's true.

Everything is true.

- Go for it. - No, wait.

Listen to me. Look at me.

It does not change anything. I like you. Look at me, you will see it.

All I know is you lied to me.

- You took me for an easy girl. - No !

I am not one. Come down!

Carrie, listen to me, honey.

I'm asking you to come down!

- Where's Mrs. Hurstwood? - At first. She is resting.

What did you tell him?

What are you doing here at this hour?

- How could you! - What are you saying ?

- Do not lie. - I did not see her.

Did you tell her she was destroying our union?

You should have told him the truth. Your contempt for me.

- Don't approach. - You ruined me.

You pushed me to put everything in your name.

- That's all you wanted. - I did not see her !

You lose your mind.

- Get out of here. - Listen to me carefully.

I found love and I want to experience it before I die.

- Certainly not. - Nothing can stop me.

Children, what will you say to them?

All. They are adults. They want love, like me.

Grant me a divorce. You're sure to get it all.

But I have the right to a minimum of happiness.

You've had enough to drink, Mr. Drouet.

I'm waiting for your boss.

- We're closing. - Close ! One more baby.

No, I'm not leaving. I am in quarantine.

- Where's Carrie? - Where she should be.

- At his sister's ? - No.

It's finish. Your bluff no longer works.

You tried it.

A low and mean blow.

It's okay, Mike, I'll do the rest.

- It's not what you think. - No ?

You are a gentleman. Not me.

I sell hardware.

What does a gentleman believe? Say it to me.

I love it.

By what right ? What do you have to offer him?

A rented apartment where you will go in secret!

I will marry her. Tomorrow.

Monsieur pays for the tour.

Can I get you a drink before I go?

No thanks, Mike.

George.

Hello, Fitz. You're in luck. Closing the trunk...

Your wife asked me to come.

- For your good. - I'm taking care of it.

- It does not concern you. - On the contrary.

You run a luxury establishment.

Your conduct must be perfect.

I suspected it. An unscrupulous woman has you.

You are an old man, Fitz. Please.

I will pay Julia your salary until this story is over.

If you stop showering her with gifts,

she will sell her favors elsewhere.

Taxi!

Taxi!

657 Ogden Ave.

Wait for me here.

- Who is this ? - It's me.

- Carrie, please. - Go away.

I have something to tell you. Open me. Please.

I never want to see you again. Never. Leave me.

Carey, you...

You do not understand. It's Drouet. He had an accident.

You hear me ? Charlie had an accident. He wants to see you.

- Where is he ? - To the hospital.

I'm going to get dressed. Wait for me.

Union Station.

- Where is he ? - Next to Chicago.

We have a train to catch. Hurry up.

What is he doing there?

I do not know.

What happened to him ?

- It's serious ? - No, I do not think so.

How come you know?

A telegram.

That's all I know.

By La Salle Street, it's faster.

Cushions, sir?

- THANKS. - Thank you.

We're going to see Charlie,

is not it ?

Pardon ?

- Where are you taking me? - Calm down and I'll tell you.

We'll be arriving in Englewood soon. You can go down. I promise.

So the accident is just another lie.

I have one thing to tell you before you leave me forever

and I couldn't find any other way.

I lied to you about my family and my intentions.

If you had to, you would have refused to see me again.

Nothing has changed.

You think I lied to you out of disrespect. It's wrong.

I was too afraid to lose you. I love you so.

- I will always love you. -Englewood.

Next stop. Englewood.

Give us a chance.

We can have it all, together, as husband and wife.

It's not true!

Carrie.

I no longer have a wife.

We finally left each other.

From tonight, I'm free.

- How ? - She wants a divorce.

She needed proof. She has it.

This is exactly what she expected.

Let's get married as soon as we arrive in New York. Trust me.

I bet everything on this love.

If I was wrong, Carrie, get off the train.

Otherwise...

If you love me...

By car.

By car.

- What is it ? -Columbia.

- What ? - My dog. I left him.

He fears nothing.

He will get me. He will want to follow me.

New York is far for a small dog.

Carrie.

Did you sleep a little?

No, I looked out the window.

- Where were you ? - I went out to settle some business.

I have been to the post office

then I went to see small restaurants

and bought a hat.

We go to the theater, I want to be elegant.

- He is handsome ? - According to Mrs. Louise, yes.

Who ?

Ah, George.

- It's not for me. - Neither for me.

Put the.

I'm going to change my hairstyle. Hold on.

Are you happy, my Carrie?

Happy ? George, look at me.

Look where we are.

I am Mrs. George Hurstwood from New York.

Mr Hurstwood?

You are not easy to find.

My name is Allen. From the Western Bonding Company.

How much do you have left?

This only concerns Mr. Fitzgerald and myself.

And me.

Mr. Fitzgerald has a receipt for this amount. It's a loan.

We call that theft.

I'm sorry. Here is your receipt.

Unacceptable.

- For what ? - Lack of funds.

I have $18,000 in the bank.

I have stocks. I have my villa.

We tried to talk to your wife.

But she'd rather see you in jail. How much do you have ?

I can buy a restaurant.

In a year, I will have the sum.

- And she ? - Who ?

You know...

- I got 6,000. - Out of 10,000? No.

Let's go to the police station.

I will reimburse Fitzgerald.

You're just an ordinary thief, I have to get you on board.

Give me back most of the money and we forget everything.

Take your time.

Good day sir.

Well.

- I have $9,000 left. - And...

- Three hundred dollars. - Five hundred ?

- Three hundred. - 9300. Get them for me.

- Wait for me here, please. - She is really nice.

I accompany you.

This is Mr. Allen, Carrie.

- Delighted. - Hello, Mr. Allen.

Is it under the rug?

- I will be back. - Sit down.

That's nice, but I'm nervous by nature.

No service door or emergency exit.

It's very pretty here.

Are you from the hotel?

Yes.

We are happy here.

That's what my bosses thought.

- Here are the papers. - Let me look.

Let's go, Mr. Allen.

He could give me the phone book!

At least you still have your health and...

I'll give you an official receipt.

Nobody knows.

- Is not it ? - Stealing?

There must be two people who don't.

We must notify our customers of any theft over $1000.

You know it. You ran a luxury restaurant.

We insure almost every restaurant in the country.

Tell me, I was wondering...

Why did you do such a thing?

Receipt.

A cigar?

Don't take it the wrong way. I try to be nice.

Bye.

I didn't find him likeable.

Who is it, George?

Was he making fun of me?

George?

Not moving.

George.

George, what is it? Who was he ?

What happens to you ?

George, tell me.

I would like.

Carrie, do you love me deeply?

Of course I love you.

- What is troubling you ? - That.

We only have that.

For what ?

I am broke.

I thought something horrible had happened.

Will you stay by my side? Will you continue to love me?

We are married. I'm your wife.

Carrie, that's not enough.

- Do you regret marrying me? - Darling.

Try to understand. We don't even have $50.

I had debts. I paid them back.

- To Mr. Allen? - Yes.

But I'm still rich.

I have all my love for you.

It's you I worry about. What do you have left?

You, George.

You will find a good place.

I'll go look for a small apartment tomorrow.

We'll get through this. You will see.

- Do I have time... - We have our lives ahead of us.

to start all over again?

Over to you, Gus.

- Butter, Jack. - Butter.

I take care of 4 tables. You know where the butter is.

It's okay, Jack. How are you.

$8.50. 8.75. $9.

Nine dollars and 10 cents. That's a dollar eighty.

One dollar eighty each.

Butlers pick up

some things and not others.

Hey, Rockefeller.

I wanted to talk to you.

George. For Mr. Slawson.

I didn't know you worked at Fitzgerald's.

I have to fire you. You know why.

- Give me the ball. - It's mine.

Bobbie, come right back or I'll get you one.

I'm here, Carrie.

- Where are you ? - Here, George.

- How is my darling? - GOOD.

- And you ? - How are you.

We worked well at noon.

So much the better.

- What did you do ? - I was near Gramercy Park.

The park is closed. It is reserved for neighbors.

It looks nice. There are plenty of nannies and children.

Do not worry. We won't stay here long.

That's not what i meant.

- There must be a hole. - I took two dollars.

I paid the grocer and Mr. Blum for the cleaning.

You pay them too quickly. Make them wait.

They need that money as much as we do.

I can't buy without paying. It's not honest.

- What do you mean ? - This is theft.

Shut up !

Carrie.

Carrie, darling.

I'm sorry.

- Carrie, listen to me. - What is it ?

I can not stand it anymore. It has to change.

If we saved $1,000, I could open my restaurant.

I could do something with it.

How do you want to save $1000?

I did, bought a house and raised kids.

- We lived well. - Don't dwell on the past.

What does that get us?

Let's accept fate but stop worrying about it.

You want me to accept this life?

George.

Do you want to do me a favor?

Can you go to the grocer? I give you your coat.

Buy some milk, your newspaper and a cigar.

Carrie.

You are wonderful, Carrie.

Good morning ? Good morning ?

- Mrs. Oransky? - Yes ?

- I can enter ? - Of course.

- Good morning. - Hello, Carrie.

- Can I take it? - Of course.

- Did you get her here? - Yes. And him too.

- Was it expensive? - What ?

The doctor, the clothes.

No.

You are...

That's wonderful.

Your baby will be so beautiful.

If I were at home, I would know more.

- Is it different here in New York? - It's the same everywhere.

They should not be hot in summer or cold in winter.

George? You are back ?

- Where were you ? - Come and sit down.

I was washing my pants.

- I have something to tell you. - It's drying.

Sit down for a moment.

I'm going to have a baby.

In about six months.

Carrie.

Do not worry. I feel in great shape.

My dear.

Does it smell burnt?

Carrie.

What else have I done?

- I'm going to patch it up - What?

I can't wear patched pants.

What did I do ?

RECRUITING OFFICE

Two divers.

- YOU. Do you have your 25 c? - Yes.

We don't give credit. If you don't have 25c, no need to wait.

YOU.

That's all.

Young man ?

Can I buy it back from you?

- How much ? - 10% profit, what do you think?

I waited all morning. It's rare, you know.

I know. But I really need to work.

My wife is having a baby.

Let's focus on the business aspect.

Would you accept 50 cents?

Yes, I would accept 50c.

I am Mrs. Hurstwood. This is Mr. O'Brien.

- Pleased... - Is Mr. Hurstwood there?

No.

- When is he due back? - From one minute to the next.

I will wait for it.

- Good morning. - Hello M...

- Mr. O'Brien. - Ho are you doing ?

Yes.

- You know... - Yes.

Let's get to the point.

GOOD.

Mr. Hurstwood, your son is thinking of getting married.

Really ? I know the lady?

Carry on, Mr. O'Brien.

Yes.

My client has found a buyer for her house.

She would like to sell it and buy a modern apartment.

Your signature will allow him to do so.

- All the papers are ready. - THANKS.

$11,000. That's 5500 each.

It's that

my client was not considering splitting the price.

The house belongs to me too.

To do this, he needs my signature.

To get my signature, she has to give me half.

If he doesn't sign immediately, Mr. O'Brien,

I send him to prison for bigamy.

Bigamy?

I imagined you prettier.

You...

You got divorced.

He told me he divorced a year ago.

- I will never divorce. - It must.

Convince her, George.

Mrs. Hurstwood, I understand you.

But you can't force him to sign.

You want the money. Sending him to jail won't get you any further.

Well ?

I was thinking of a compromise. Give him a part.

I would offer him $2500.

Alright.

I'll make you a deal, Julia.

You've always had a weakness for it.

How much do you want, Mr. Hurstwood?

Grant me my divorce

and I will do whatever you want.

Let's start the procedure immediately.

Sign here, Mr. Hurstwood.

Carrie?

Carrie?

She sleeps. The doctor gave him something.

- What happened to him ? - She'll be fine.

She had an accident ?

She lost the baby.

Leave her alone for a while.

Do not hesitate to call me, I will be at home.

George?

How do you feel ?

I was in the kitchen and...

I know.

It's better like that.

Trust me, darling, it's better that way.

They require a lot of care.

Let's wait to have children.

You're happy, huh?

No, Carrie.

We'll have a baby later. When everything will be fine.

When ?

When will we be rich?

When will you have a big restaurant?

When will you be 80?

Carrie, please.

Don't be angry.

I'm going to put an end to this descent into hell.

We cannot continue like this.

At my age, when you're unemployed,

people think we have a problem.

It's just a little more difficult.

You will see, it will change.

You believe me, say?

I can't advise you, George. But I know one thing.

I am still young.

And I want to live. Either way.

STAGE DOOR

- Look. - The averages.

Averages only.

You will cross the stage. Heads up.

Stop in the middle for Mr. Goodman.

No grandmother. They are dancers we hire.

Go for it. Smile and line up.

To you. Do you have experience?

I played in several plays in Chicago.

- What roles did you play? - Camille.

- What is your name ? - Carrie

Madanda.

- Very well, Camilla. - We're complete, Mr. Goodman.

I keep two aside just in case one of them has flat feet.

Rehearsal starts at 9 a.m. sharp tomorrow.

Be punctual during these four weeks. Heard ?

- Yes. - GOOD.

The show starts Monday, November 4. Good luck and thank you.

- THANKS. - Does that mean we're taken?

FIRST

May I walk you home, Miss Madenda?

George! Did you attend the play?

I only saw one person.

I didn't know you had text.

Of text ? Two sentences.

You did well. And you were awesome.

And I got a raise. $18 per week.

You will be able to talk to me.

I just got a little lucky.

That's the only difference between us.

So, make the most of it.

You deserve to have nice outfits and a nice apartment.

You can have a career in this other world.

The one I left.

- What ? Only ? - You're never alone up there.

It is down here that we feel alone.

- Hello, George. - Good morning.

Listen to this, Carrie.

"Among the passengers of the recently rearmed S.S. Coronia

are Mr. and Mrs. G. Hurstwood Jr.

Mrs. Hurstwood, née Palmerston, daughter of E. Palmerston,

founder of the Palmerston Plow Co.

and President of the Chamber of Commerce.

The young couple will be living in Lakeview at the Palmerstons' residence."

It's my son.

We used to be close.

He's a good boy.

Would you like to go see it?

Well,

I don't know.

What do you think ?

I had your other shirt washed.

I can pass it on to you.

We haven't seen each other for a long time.

We both changed a lot.

You are very elegant, George.

We might even be able to go back to Chicago.

- Don't worry about me. - For what ?

He must have been told horrible things about me.

I don't want to exclude you from my life.

He's in love, too. He will understand my choices.

Now is the time to ask for help. Grab it.

Whatever happens, George, grab it.

We'll see.

If all goes well, I'll come and join you.

You will be with me.

George.

Kiss me, George.

Bye.

Bye.

Good luck.

Ellen! George!

Oh, Ellen, darling.

- You look beautiful. - Good to see you.

GOODBYE, GEORGE. YOU WILL BE HAPPIER WITH YOUR SON.

I HAVE NEVER BROUGHT YOU LUCK.

Do you have anything more crispy to tell me?

Our readers love stories.

We know your route. 2 seasons in New York, 1 year on tour.

Your favourite meal ? Arguments with the director? Your lovers?

No, I do not see.

Miss Madenda, a gentleman from Chicago for you.

It's your turn in 5 minutes.

It's really you ?

Yes.

- I'm Charlie. - The king of charm.

THANKS. It will help me a little.

- Read the Sunday Globe. - Thank you, Mr. Calhoun.

- Not a scar. - No.

You've come a long way. You look beautiful.

You have succeeded, you are taller, younger, happier.

Sit down, Charlie.

Me, I eat my fill, I have 150 ties

and you're the most beautiful thing I've seen lately.

- How are you ? - GOOD. Where do you live now?

I have a large apartment. Lots of very chic furniture.

But not as pretty as the one on Ogden Avenue in your day.

- I'm glad you're okay. - Let's have a drink afterwards.

You do not mind ?

No thanks, Charlie.

I learned to order dinner like Hurstwood.

Did he end up marrying you, Carrie?

Yes.

Wow.

When I found out he left with you and the money,

I admired him. A hell of a guy.

Two minutes.

- Has he found a job? - Of course.

It's not easy to keep this kind of secret.

- To keep what secret? - Do you want to laugh?

If you want to humiliate me, that's low.

Do not get mad. I supported him.

I defended him when all of Chicago called him a thief.

I knew why he stole.

He was ready to do anything to have you. And he did.

- George stole? - You did not know ?

You are the only one. It was in all the newspapers.

He took $10,000 from Fitzgerald's safe the night you left.

He clipped his wings.

So that's it.

If we hadn't caught him spending it all, he'd be in jail.

After that, of course, his reputation was ruined.

That's why he couldn't find a job.

That he had no friends.

Nobody to help him.

Everything is paid for in this world. Even a great love like his.

I ruined it.

On stage, Miss Madenda.

I ruined it.

THANKS. Wait.

Hello, Mrs. Oransky.

- I'm Carrie. - Yes I know. Carrie.

I lived opposite.

Yes of course.

It's a radiator.

I thought you would need it.

It works well. It is new.

They are doing well. Do you sell them?

No, it's a gift for you. I want to give it to you.

Good morning.

Hello, Anne.

You don't remember me, huh?

- She is fine ? - Yes. Come in.

Have you seen my husband?

Not since he got kicked out. About a month after your departure.

I have not left. He was going back to Chicago.

I don't believe there was.

He didn't look well.

Mr. Blum continued to see him for a while.

He was coming to have his clothes washed. He looked bad.

Are you really looking for him, Carrie?

Yes.

Go see Mr. Blum. He might know something.

- THANKS. Bye. - Bye.

He must live somewhere.

You seem to be fine. The bad days are behind you.

- If he's fine, he'll manage. - What if he's bad?

He wouldn't want you to see him like this.

Seven hours. Everybody out.

Seven hours. Out.

Seven hours. Out.

Where are you going with this blanket?

I got out of the hospital two days ago.

They told me to rest.

Seven hours. Everybody out.

Come on, you!

Come on.

Excuse me.

How are you ?

Yes, sir, I'm going to a friend who will help me.

- Everything's good. - Alright.

I have to eat if I don't want to die.

Who are you talking to ? To me or to God?

- Good evening, John. - Good evening, Dolly.

- Good evening, Carrie. - Good evening, Dolly.

Excuse me, Carrie.

George?

Where are you ?

It's the last thing I wanted to do.

George, I've been looking everywhere for you.

I need help.

Just for tonight.

I need help. I have...

hunger.

Can you give me a small coin?

A small room?

What you can. I do not want to bother you.

I will not do it again.

Come with me.

John! Go get food.

Italian must be open. A hot meal.

George. What happened to you ?

In the name of God, what happened?

I have...

I forgot.

And it's all my fault?

- It's my fault, huh? - Carrie,

I came to ask you for a room.

Don't overcharge me for it.

It's very generous.

I will redeem myself.

You do not mind ?

I have nothing to give you change.

George, I left you to try to live decently.

Now that I've made it, enjoy it with me.

Let me share it with you.

George, look at me.

I learned a lot of things.

I know what you did.

I know how much you loved me.

I want to find your love. Give it to me.

Let me get you out of here. I can.

Don't live in the past.

Do you remember ?

I was too young. I could not understand.

Why didn't you tell me? Why did you hide it from me?

You have your life ahead of you, Carrie.

Move on.

Find someone to love.

It is a fabulous experience.

Carrie.

Can you give me some change?

We'll need more money than that.

I'll see if Mr. Amos is in his office. Wait for me there.

John won't be long. Then we'll go home together.

And tomorrow, we'll go buy you some clothes.

Thanks... Carrie.
