[ROSE]
This is what I ought to feel on stage
Soaring up like snow-capped mountains
I feel your beauty and your rage
I could be those tumbling forests
I could play those jagged hillsides
Star of mountain
Star of valley
[ALEX]
Would Madam care for breakfast?
Will croissants and fresh coffee do?
Wonderful view!
Whenever we see those mountains
We will think of me and you
George insists on magnificent views
[ROSE]
I think I should like your uncle
(spoken)
Alex, she's beautiful. Who is she?
[ALEX, spoken]
My aunt Delia. She was an actress too
[ROSE, spoken]
Delia! Was she famous?
[ALEX, spoken]
Yes. But she died very young. That's why my uncle doesn't come down here very often. There are too many memories
[ROSE, spoken]
Haven't I seen that somewhere before?
[ALEX, spoken]
Not the one you're thinking of. That's in the Louvre. George did that one. Some people call it fraud, but he prefers to think of it as a tribute
[ALEX, spoken]
(brandishing a rapier)
En garde!
[ROSE, spoken]
(parrying with a tennis racket)
Fifteen love!
[BOTH]
Promise me today will never ever end!
[ROSE, spoken]
(pulling out various tins)
Caviar! Anchovies! Peaches in brandy! We can have a banquet tonight!
[ALEX, spoken]
When he does get down here, George doesn't believe in having to rough it
[BOTH]
I could get to like it here!
Let's not ever think of leaving!
[ALEX, spoken]
Look at this. Pierrot! Carmen!
For the ballroom? Or the bedroom?
[ROSE, spoken]
Mérimée, "L'Occasion". I know this- it's a wonderful play!
[ALEX, spoken]
Really?
[ROSE, spoken]
Let's do it
[ALEX, spoken]
But I don't know anything about the theatre
[ROSE, spoken]
I'll teach you. We'll do it tonight [ROSE]
This one is gorgeous
He must have loved her so much
I can just see her
I feel I know her [ALEX]
It was her favorite dress
Rose, leave things as they are
