And what particular moment

would you want to keep?

Oh, all of them,

all these last few days.

I feel as though I'd, I'd collected

a whole shelf full of bottles.

Sometimes, you know, those

little bottles contain demons...

that have a way

of popping out at you...

just as you're trying

most desperately to forget.

Stop biting your nails.

Oh, I wish I were a woman of 36,

dressed in black satin,

with a string of pearis.

You wouldn't be here

with me if you were.

Would you please tell me, Mr. De Winter,

why you asked me to come out with you?

Oh, it's obvious

that you want to be kind,

but why do you choose me

for your charity?

I asked you to come out with me

because I wanted your company.

You've blotted out

the past for me more...

than all the bright

lights of Monte Carlo.

But if you think I just asked

you out of kindness or charity,

you can leave the car now

and find your own way home.

Go on, open the door and get out.

Better blow your nose.

Please don't call me Mr. De Winter.

I have a very impressive

array of first names.

George Fortescue Maximilian. But you

needn't bother with them all at once.

My family call me Maxim.

And another thing.

Please promise me never

to wear black satin or pearis...

or to be 36 years old.

Yes, Maxim.

For the love of Pete! Come here!

What do you think?

My daughter's engaged to be married.

- Oh, really? How nice.

- We must leave for New York at once.

Get reservations

on the Aquitania, and we'll take

the 12:
30 train for Cherbourg.

Hurry up and get a maid to help with

the packing. We've no time to waste.

Go on and don't dawdle!

Mr. De Winter, please.

Oh, he's gone out riding?

He won't be back till noon?

Oh... well...

give me the porter, please.

I'll go and see if there's

anything left in my room.

Has Mr. De Winter come in yet?

Oh, he has?

Would you connect me, please?

Oh, I-I was looking for my book.

I- I suppose I've packed it.

Well, come on.

The car's waiting at the door.

I'd like to leave a forwarding address

if they happen to find that book.

Would you ring

Mr. De Winter, please?

Yes, madam.

Cent vingt-deux.

There isn't any answer.

Thank you.

- Tell her to hurry up!

- Yes, madam.

I was looking for Mr. De Winter.

Mr. De Winter just ordered

breakfast in his room, mademoiselle.

Come in.

Hello. What are you doing here?

Anything the matter?

I've come to say good-bye.

We're going away.

- What on earth are you talking about?

- It's true.

We're going now, and

I was afraid I wouldn't see you again.

Where is she taking you to?

New York. I don't want to go.

I shall hate it.

I shall be miserable.

I'll dress in here.

I shan't be long

Which would you prefer,
