Women in Love Page #7

Synopsis: The battle of the sexes and relationships among the elite of Britain's industrial Midlands in the 1920s. Gerald Crich and Rupert Berkin are best friends who fall in love with a pair of sisters Gudrun, a sculptress and Ursula Brangwen, a schoolteacher. Rupert marries Ursula, Gerald begins a love affair with Gudrun, and the foursome embarks upon a Swiss honeymoon. But the relationships take markedly different directions, as Russell explores the nature of commitment and love. Rupert and Ursula learn to give themselves to each other; the more withdrawn Gerald cannot, finally, connect with the demanding and challenging Gudrun.

Oh?

Don't be angry with me.

No...

No, I'm not angry with you.

I am in love with you.

Yes...

Well, that's...one way of putting it.

It's all right, then?

Yes...

Yes, it's all right.

It's all right.

It's all right. It's all right...

I must be going home now.

Must you? How sad?

- Are you really sad?

- Yes.

I wish we could

go on walking like this forever.

There is a golden light in you,

which I wish that you would give me.

I always think I'm going to be loved...

and then I'm let down.

Tibby!

Tibby!

Tibby!

Laura?

Laura!

Laura! Where are you?

Help me, please!

Help! Help me, someone!

Please, quick! Somebody, come!

Laura, Lupton! Oh, God, Laura!

Laura!

- No, no...!

- Where were they?

I don't know.

Well, keep away from me!

Gerald, stop it!

- Stop it!

- But I've got to find them.

- You can't!

- Why should you interfere?

You can't see.

Laura! Laura!

- Oh, God, Laura.

- Try and keep the boat still!

I can't!

Come out!

Keep back. Keep back, you can't help us.

- Laura...

- Come out, Gerald.

Gerald, for God's sake, come out.

- Gerald!

- Gudrun!

Laura!

- Keep the boat steady, for God's sake!

- I'm trying!

- Hang on to the side!

- It's too dark!

Gerald! Gerald, are you all right?

Gerald...come out.

We shan't save them, Father.

There's no knowing where they are.

And there's a current as cold as hell.

Go home and look to yourself!

We'll let the water out.

Rupert, you go to the north sluice.

There's room in that water there...

...for thousands.

Two is enough.

If there's one thing about our family,

you know...

...once everything goes wrong...

it can never be put right.

Not with us.

Do you think they're dead?

Yes.

Oh...horrible...

Do you mind...very much?

I don't mind about the dead,

once they're dead.

The worst of it is

they cling to the living and won't let go.

I'm afraid of death.

Death's all right.

Nothing better.

But you don't want to die?

I would like to die from our kind of life.

Be born again, through...

through a love that is like sleep.

With new air round one,

that no one's ever breathed before.

I thought...

love wasn't good enough for you.

Oh, I don't' want love!

I don't want to know you.

I want to be gone out of myself.

I want you to be lost to yourself,

so we are found different.

Oh, we shouldn't talk when we're tired

and wretched...

Say you love me. Say...

"my love" to me...

Oh, I love you right enough, I just...

want it to be something else.

Why?

Why?

Why isn't it enough?

Because we can go one better.

No, we can't.

We can only say we love each other.

Say "my love" to me.

Say it.

Say it!

Yes. My love.

Yes...my love.

Let love be enough, then. I...
