Iris Page #2
Patrick O'Brian.
"Between two evils
always choose the one you haven't tried before."
Mea West. Oh my vest!
I tore my vest again this morning.
You must get some new vests.
Jolly good.
You must get some new vests.
I just said that.
You're always saying
that you just said something. Me too.
Good job
you reminded me I had two lectures today.
You remembered.
No, but I remembered
to apologise for the one I forgot.
They were very sweet about it.
Glad not to have listen to you, I expect.
Oh, I'm sure.
They'd have been delighted
to have listened to you.
I always have been.
-Iris!
-John.
Than kyou. Keep the change.
-Janet. Janet!
-Oh my God, Iris.
Am I late?
Oh no, it's the hokie-cokie.
Everything will be over.
Oh, John, wait. I've got my stocking caught up.
Stupid things. Really.
I'm not sure I'm entirely -- I'm so sorry.
Oh, sorry.
Cha-cha-cha.
Cha-cha-cha.
-Thank you.
-You too.
That was my husband.
Cha-cha-cha.
Are you with Iris?
Hoping so.
You know we have...
I thought we had.
...nearly met.
-Are you a friend of Iris?
-Yes.
She seems to have a lot of f...
Janet Stone. John Bayley.
-How do you do?
-How do you do?
Shall we?
What are your rooms like?
Adequate,thank you.
I'd like to see them.
Do you have a lot of friends?
Is a list of my friends necessary?
I justwondered if you had many.
There aren't many people
that one wants to know one.
Iris!
You might fall.
Would you like some champagne?
That would be nice.
I've had some since Christmas...
It does keep, doesn't it?
I shouldn't be doing this.
What?
Having women in my room. It's not permitted.
I wouldn't say you'd had me exactly.
Have you danced before?
It was all right, wasn't it?
Oh, I think so.
Broke the ice, so to speak.
-"Ice"?
-What?
It'll do.
Aren't you particular
about words at your college?
I'm only here under sufferance really,
as a tutor and guide.
I get all the Americans
and Frenchmen to mother.
You love words, don't you?
If one doesn't have words, how does one think?
Shall I do that?
What is your novel about?
About?
How to be free.
How to be good...
...and how to love.
Well, that's all there is, I'd say.
Language is all very well, you know, but...
...it's not the only way
of understanding each other.
There's sight and...
...and smell and...touch, of course.
I love your nose.
It's snub.
Snubby...
...snubby, snubby.
it's snubby, snubby, snubby.
Let me do that to you.
Take off your jacket.
If we were, as it were, married...
...we could do this all the time.
Perhaps?
We should be doing it nearly all the time.
Yes, but if...
Thank you.
Look.
I'm stopping you working.
Yes, well, I don't mind.
