Bedazzled Page #6

Have a look at it.

Oh, thank you.

Oh!

Bit of a weight, isn't it?

Oh, it's so smooth...

and cool.

Yes, that's the extraordinary

thing about marble.

It's always 11 degrees cooler...

than the air that surrounds it.

Fahrenheit, of course.

Do you like feeling things?

Oh, yes,

I'm a very... tactile person.

I love touching things.

Sometimes...

I go into the forest...

and shut my eyes...

and just wander around touching

trees and grass and boulders.

Y-You should try it.

Do it in here!

Go on. Shut your eyes.

Now feel something hard.

Oh.

Ohh!

Oh, I'm feeling something

terribly hard. It's fantastic.

Oh, now feel something soft.

Oh.

Oh, my goodness gracious me.

Oh, it's unbelievable.

Oh, the contrast.

I've never felt anything

so exciting in my life.

Yeah. I love it. Feel my tie.

Oh!

Mmm.

Oh. It's delicious!

Yeah?

Velvet.

It's so wild.

It really does something to me.

Oh. Uh...

Hmm.

I suppose after all that touching you

could do with something to drink.

Please!

What would you like?

Cinzano.

Cinzano? Fantastic.

One sip of Cinzano,

and I'm in Italy.

Mmm.

The freedom of it.

The sun beating down.

Mmm.

The incredible thing about the Italians

is the way they touch each other.

Have you noticed that?

Yes. Cheers.

The Anglo-Saxons have lost the

art of touching each other.

I mean, if someone wants

to touch somebody else...

then they should go right

ahead and touch them.

I mean, it's a healthy,

human thing to do.

Y-You're so right.

There's a tribe in... in Africa

who never say a word.

They just touch each other.

That's how they communicate.

Life is far too complicated.

I think we should get

down to basic elements.

Mmm.

I mean...

For example, if you

were a girl, and I...

I am a girl.

Well, of course!

All right, but if...

if you were a girl...

which, of course, you are...

and if I were a man, which, for

argument's sake, let's say I am...

and I wanted to touch you, well...

I wouldn't feel restrained.

I mean, I'd just go right ahead...

and...

touch you.

You see? That's how I am.

I feel the same way.

I mean, if two adult human beings

want to touch each other...

they should go ahead

and touch each other.

Why hold back?

Yes.

This afternoon has been...

so perfect.

The Cinzano. The zoo.

The music. The touching.

And you're so right

about the animals.

I mean, that's what we are...

deep down, underneath our

sophisticated civilization...

and we should behave like they do.

Of course.

I mean, the fact that it's...

seven minutes past 3:00 in the afternoon

wouldn't make any difference to a goat.

I mean, Old Billy wouldn't stop to think

what time of day it was, would he?

No, it just goes right ahead
