00:00:35 Rambling Rose
00:02:11 In deep Dixieland,
00:02:22 I had come to visit my father.
00:02:25 Mother had died a few years before
00:02:29 He wouldn't have it otherwise.
00:02:45 Seeing the old house,
00:02:50 The old South I had known
00:02:56 When I was 13,
00:03:01 I overheard my father
00:03:05 to hire this girl.
00:03:07 A good-natured, but unfortunate girl,
00:03:09 working for a farm family,
00:03:14 Thus she was hired,
00:03:21 She was the first person
00:03:28 But, as my father said,
00:03:30 she caused
00:05:00 Hello.
00:05:03 I'm Rose.
00:05:06 I've come to live with you.
00:05:20 Mother, the new girl's here.
00:05:22 Wonderful.
00:05:26 She's big.
00:05:31 But she's very girlish.
00:05:36 Your impression is very reassuring.
00:05:38 I sensed that she was so.
00:05:43 You mean confirmed, mother.
00:05:45 If it had been confirmed previously,
00:05:49 Alright.
00:05:51 You get Doll and Waski.
00:06:07 This is Waski. His real name
00:06:12 He dislikes it. I guess, one day
00:06:16 You can stop it now.
00:06:18 You'll find him a very good boy.
00:06:26 Rose,
00:06:30 We call her Dolly.
00:06:34 Doll Baby, that's worse than Waski.
00:06:39 Daddy won't allow it.
00:06:41 That young man, you have met.
00:06:44 He is my oldest son
00:06:48 They say
00:06:52 I simply tell the truth.
00:06:55 No, ma'am. Not at all.
00:06:57 Good.
00:06:59 I realised the remarkable thing
00:07:05 He looked at me and recognised me.
00:07:09 He understood me.
00:07:11 Sounds crazy, but it's the truth.
00:07:16 I have to warn you about him.
00:07:19 He can be very dangerous.
00:07:22 He has an evil streak in him.
00:07:24 It is a streak
00:07:27 You'll scare the girl, going into
00:07:34 Maybe to you it's the 4th dimension,
00:07:39 Well, well,
00:07:45 Yes, indeed.
00:07:50 Doll Baby, take this for me.
00:07:57 Rosebud...
00:07:59 I swear to God, you are
00:08:04 You will adorn our house
00:08:09 Yes, indeed.
00:08:18 Now, it is my wife's belief,
00:08:23 that to hire a person to do
00:08:30 You are therefore here as a friend,
00:08:36 In love and harmony, dear Rosebud.
00:08:41 Do you understand?
00:08:44 Yes, sir.
00:08:49 Those scoundrels in Birmingham
00:08:55 Life can be
00:08:59 You've had a hard time.
00:09:01 But I hope and believe you've found
00:09:06 We welcome you to our home.
00:09:08 We welcome you from the heart.
00:09:12 We hope you're happy here.
00:09:16 Thank you, sir.
00:09:19 Hands in your pocket,
00:09:22 watch the turtles
00:09:39 Let's see if she goes in the water.
00:09:56 Waski, you gotta lick your lips.
00:10:28 You mean to those seeds,
00:10:34 Buddy,
00:10:37 do y'all own it personally?
00:10:40 Yes, it's part of Mother's estate.
00:10:42 Her estate?
00:10:44 Her inheritance. It was left to her
00:10:51 Buddy, your mama was a orphan?
00:10:54 Yes.
00:10:58 Y'all help me shuck.
00:11:02 Hey, Buddy?
00:11:04 Where is Columbia University?
00:11:09 It's an advanced school
00:11:14 New York?
00:11:16 New York! Imagine that,
00:11:22 ... things like that. New York.
00:11:26 Went to that school. Good Lord.
00:11:30 That's something.
00:11:32 Rose? Who were
00:11:38 Nobody. Keep shucking.
00:11:41 But who were they?
00:11:45 Bad men, that's all.
00:11:48 Bad in what sense?
00:11:52 Bad is bad, Buddy.
00:11:55 Did they try
00:11:59 I don't listen to talk like that.
00:12:04 That's why Daddy hired you, isn't it?
00:12:06 T o keep you away
00:12:09 Your daddy is the best and
00:12:16 Did you hear about
00:12:22 What terrible thing?
00:12:26 There was this old man
00:12:30 I did not hear that. I don't hear you.
00:12:33 Chopped her into pork-chops.
00:12:39 There's terrible things in this world.
00:12:42 Rose, did you hear
00:12:45 Killed his wife with a black widow
00:12:55 You are in one of your evil moods.
00:13:00 That's what it is.
00:13:53 The family's all here.
00:13:58 Reverse-insomnia.
00:14:01 What a curse.
00:14:07 No appetite, either.
00:14:12 Rose, may I have half a cup of coffee?
00:14:19 Rosebud baby...
00:14:24 You're as pretty as a moonbeam,
00:14:29 Now, how did we get by without you?
00:14:43 Rose must be
00:14:47 Must be that time of the month.
00:14:49 She has been a little peaky lately.
00:14:55 What, dear?
00:14:57 Your hearing aid is on the blink.
00:15:00 Your hearing aid
00:15:19 Waski, I shot you. Fall down.
00:15:25 Hey, Doll, come on.
00:15:48 Mrs. Hillyer?
00:15:53 Yes, dear?
00:15:54 Will you get
00:15:58 Pretty soon, dear.
00:16:01 What are you studying right now?
00:16:09 Is that the story of this country?
00:16:14 Exactly.
00:16:17 You must have a wonderful brain!
00:16:24 Rose, darling, you work too hard.
00:16:28 Sit down and have a nice refreshment.
00:16:32 After all you and him has been doing
00:17:18 Mrs. Hillyer?
00:17:23 Is it true you were a orphan?
00:17:25 Yes.
00:17:27 After the age of seven, I was.
00:17:33 Me, too.
00:17:49 Daddy sure is dumb.
00:17:51 Mother didn't notice, either.
00:17:54 You'd think she wouldnotice.
00:18:00 Besides,
00:18:05 Maternal feelings run deep.
00:18:09 Yeah.
00:18:11 Rose is in terrible shape.
00:18:14 Shut up, Wawa. You don't even
00:18:16 I do, too.
00:18:34 He loves me. He loves me not.
00:18:38 You don't eats greens?
00:18:42 Alright.
00:18:49 Here, Rose.
00:18:53 Are you alright? Are you ill?
00:18:56 No, ma'am, I'm just fine.
00:19:03 I have to present my magazine
00:19:08 I'll drive you. You have no business
00:19:12 Why not? If you're not thinking,
00:19:18 Darling, I think about what I'm doing,
00:19:21 all the time.
00:19:23 And I have as much right to be
00:19:29 Besides, I want you
00:19:33 She isn't feeling well.
00:19:37 Yes.
00:19:39 You can help, even though
00:19:43 Man-type things, women-type things.
00:19:45 The creative force behind the universe
00:19:50 So you can help with the dishes?
00:19:53 Certainly, darling. Delighted.
00:19:56 Thank you, darling.
00:20:08 Come on.
00:20:32 I'll be damned.
00:20:36 It says the moon is 238,000 miles
00:20:41 Mister Moon.
00:20:44 It says that it's a solid rock body,
00:20:51 That's fascinating.
00:20:58 I think she's going to kiss him.
00:21:05 Oh, God, Mr. Hillyer!
00:21:08 I love you! I tried!
00:21:12 Rose, Rose, Rose!
00:21:17 Buddy, stop it. I can't see!
00:21:20 I can't help it. - Calm down.
00:21:25 No, no. Let's talk about this thing.
00:21:28 Please.
00:21:34 Please. Don't make me get up.
00:21:37 What are they doing?
00:21:41 I can't kiss you.
00:21:44 But I love you.
00:21:48 Just kiss me once. - If I did,
00:21:53 Just once.
00:21:56 I only kiss Mrs. Hillyer on the mouth.
00:22:04 They're kissing.
00:22:18 What's happening now?
00:22:22 Rose's titty is out.
00:22:26 His hand is on it.
00:22:27 Enough of this damn nonsense.
00:22:31 And I mean enough.
00:22:36 Get up, Rose.
00:22:41 You hear me?
00:22:43 Replace that tit.
00:22:46 Damn you, girl.
00:22:53 She put it away.
00:22:55 A man is supposed to be a fool.
00:23:01 Now, are you a nitwit?
00:23:04 I'm sorry, Mr. Hillyer.
00:23:07 Rose, Rose,
00:23:11 You said you loved Mrs. Hillyer.
00:23:16 She would defend you.
00:23:24 Don't cry, honey.
00:23:35 Now let me warn you...
00:23:40 I'm standing here at Thermopylae.
00:23:43 I am standing at Thermopylae...
00:23:46 ... and the Persians shall not pass.
00:23:53 Now get your tail out of here,
00:24:08 Wasn't Daddy great?
00:24:09 I bet he wanted to kiss her some more,
00:24:13 He was probably just scared Mother
00:24:18 Buddy, sometimes you make me sick.
00:24:22 Ooh, Baby Doll...
00:24:35 Thermopylae...
00:24:37 ... The Persians shall not pass.
00:26:04 Buddy, are you asleep?
00:26:08 No, I'm awake.
00:26:11 What's wrong?
00:26:13 Buddy, I have been wandering
00:26:18 I feel awful. Do you mind
00:26:24 Alright.
00:26:30 I'll be quiet.
00:26:33 I'll lie here a while.
00:26:42 Oh, Buddy, you don't know
00:26:50 Men, I don't understand 'em.
00:26:53 I can't see through them.
00:26:56 They break my heart, that's all.
00:27:00 But this is the worst ever.
00:27:03 'Cause
00:27:07 I was bad.
00:27:09 You wouldn't believe how bad I was.
00:27:12 What did you do, Rose?
00:27:16 I was just awful, Buddy.
00:27:19 Worse than you could know,
00:27:26 It isn't just the loss of him...
00:27:29 ... but my own bad behavior
00:27:32 It has just made me ill. I am sick.
00:27:37 What was the cause of it all?
00:27:40 You promise
00:27:45 It's your Daddy. I'm so much in love
00:27:49 How could such a thing happen?
00:27:52 You know, when I first come,
00:27:57 like the letter "S",
00:28:02 I fell madly in love
00:28:07 But it's a lost love.
00:28:11 He's a good man.
00:28:15 Can I touch you here?
00:28:19 It's awful soft.
00:28:22 I thought it was like a cantaloupe.
00:28:27 There's some gristle in it.
00:28:31 You're just a child. You shouldn't be
00:28:35 Actually, I am.
00:28:37 That daddy of yours
00:28:41 The things he says.
00:28:47 Can I
00:28:50 No, you can't. I'll tell you
00:28:55 You can't fool around with him.
00:28:59 If I ever do that again,
00:29:02 Can I see what nipple looks like?
00:29:05 Buddy, what has come over you?
00:29:10 I'm curious, Rose.
00:29:13 Buddy, get your hand away. Quit it!
00:29:18 Buddy, come on.
00:29:24 You don't realize it,
00:29:28 Can't I just see
00:29:59 Are you satisfied now?
00:30:02 Can we lie and talk now, huh?
00:30:05 It has a nipple.
00:30:07 At first
00:30:11 It's like an acorn.
00:30:15 You're just a child, and wouldn't
00:30:19 ... can stir a girl up.
00:30:22 Now you lie down and we'll just talk.
00:30:26 It was softer than I thought.
00:30:32 If you hit a girl there,
00:30:37 Who would do a thing such as that?
00:30:39 Some fiend might.
00:30:44 You know, Buddy,
00:30:48 You can be very nice, but like your
00:30:53 Everyone does, Rose.
00:30:56 Your Daddy doesn't.
00:31:00 What has happened
00:31:05 I not only love him,
00:31:09 I admire him.
00:31:11 I have a serious favor to ask.
00:31:16 If they get a girl, they go ahead
00:31:24 Then they tell her she's no good,
00:31:28 Since you're here in bed with me, and
00:31:36 Buddy, what an awful thing to say!
00:31:40 Where did you get
00:31:43 I'm curious, Rose.
00:31:48 Well that is just too bad.
00:31:52 Yeah, but satisfaction
00:31:56 No. You should be ashamed, asking
00:32:03 Can't I touch it just a little bit?
00:32:07 No.
00:32:09 Oh, Rose, I'm curious.
00:32:13 Aren't you my friend?
00:32:18 I like you a lot.
00:32:20 In fact, I love you.
00:32:24 You're sweet, Buddy,
00:32:29 Don't you like me just a little bit?
00:32:33 Sure I like you, Buddy.
00:32:37 I'm 13 and I have a natural curiosity.
00:32:40 It's nature, Rose.
00:32:55 Honey, what's the matter?
00:32:59 Just that...
00:33:01 ... damnable reverse-insomnia.
00:33:10 The Depression has got me.
00:33:12 Strong men weeping, children hungry.
00:33:17 What a life, what a world.
00:33:20 Buddy, quit it.
00:33:23 Am I hurting you?
00:33:24 No, you're not hurting me.
00:33:28 You just better quit it, that's all.
00:33:34 You wouldn't understand.
00:33:37 I must be out of my mind.
00:33:55 This is definitely the most
00:34:09 Oh, Lord.
00:34:11 Man rises like sparks in a fire.
00:34:44 What's wrong, Rose?
00:34:50 Are you sick?
00:34:56 I have robbed a cradle
00:35:01 I must be crazy!
00:35:10 I got to get out of here!
00:35:18 Buddy,
00:35:22 No, I won't tell a soul.
00:35:24 I sure hope you don't.
00:35:27 I got to get out of here.
00:36:16 I hate to turn this light on.
00:36:21 I have to take the chance.
00:36:26 I said I wouldn't.
00:36:32 I'd never hurt you, ever.
00:36:36 I don't see why you're so worried.
00:36:42 They'd blame me, not you.
00:36:46 A disgusting girl, which I am.
00:36:58 Rose, what did those scoundrels
00:37:03 They wanted what you said.
00:37:09 How much do they pay girls to do it?
00:37:13 In the house in Birmingham, 3 dollars.
00:37:17 The girls got a dollar
00:37:20 How many men did they have to
00:37:26 10 or 12, I guess. Maybe more.
00:37:29 Twelve, that's a lot of men.
00:37:32 They probably had BO.
00:37:37 Probably.
00:37:39 On the other hand,
00:37:44 In two days, you'd make
00:37:47 Buddy, I don't want to be no whore.
00:37:51 I can't. It'd kill me.
00:37:56 But that isn't why
00:38:00 The reason is...
00:38:03 ... I love it here.
00:38:08 And Buddy...
00:38:13 So please...
00:38:16 ... if you like me a little bit...
00:38:20 ... don't tell them, please!
00:38:27 I know that I'm a bad girl.
00:38:30 But please have pity on me. Please.
00:38:33 Buddy, don't tell them. Please don't.
00:38:38 I won't tell on you, Rose.
00:38:40 They could
00:38:43 ... and I would never tell.
00:38:46 Because I love you, Rose.
00:38:49 Thank you, Buddy.
00:39:03 When I start bothering your Daddy,
00:39:06 even worse, robbing a cradle,
00:39:10 I gotta face the facts of life.
00:39:14 T omorrow...
00:39:16 I'm going to get myself up and go out.
00:39:20 Get yourself up and go out?
00:39:23 Buddy,
00:39:25 Mr. Right is out there somewheres,
00:39:29 and I'm going to find him.
00:39:46 If I have to wake you up
00:39:49 either you're sick,
00:39:54 You weren't reading
00:39:57 I looked in your room.
00:40:03 What were you doing?
00:40:07 I have to tell the truth.
00:40:13 I was reading one of those
00:40:18 I'm so disappointed in you.
00:40:20 You mustn't read them.
00:40:24 They're filthy.
00:40:27 It's very beautiful. The creative
00:40:32 I know. We must respect it.
00:40:37 Oh, I am in awe of it.
00:40:43 Can't it be Calomel? - This is not
00:40:47 If you act like this,
00:41:01 Here, Buddy.
00:41:03 Here we go. Open up.
00:41:06 One, two, open up.
00:41:09 Good.
00:41:15 Goddamn crap.
00:41:18 What'd you say?
00:41:21 I said "putrid stuff."
00:41:25 I did. Your hearing aid isn't working.
00:41:28 He's lying.
00:41:30 And yesterday he stole money out...
00:41:34 Children, be quiet.
00:41:37 The strangest
00:41:40 Where is Rose, anyway?
00:41:43 Getting herself up to go out.
00:41:47 She's getting herself up to go out.
00:41:57 Oh! Hello, Rose, dear.
00:42:06 My, you're looking..
00:42:09 ... pretty. - Like my outfit?
00:42:14 Well...
00:42:15 It's very... cheerful.
00:42:19 I have a knack for designing clothes.
00:42:24 For the day...
00:42:27 isn't it... tight?
00:42:34 Holy catfish!
00:42:37 I got myself up is all.
00:42:41 I'm going out. - You're going
00:42:47 Darling, I wish
00:42:52 Ignore him. You look very pretty.
00:43:00 Come on, Waski, stop it.
00:43:04 Daddy, Buddy was up late
00:43:10 Mother gave him castor oil,
00:43:14 the Lord's name in vain,
00:43:17 Don't be a tattletale. You mustn't be
00:43:23 I'm only trying to help him.
00:43:27 You must talk to him. He was
00:43:32 Lay off that stuff, son.
00:43:34 I mean seriously speak with him.
00:43:37 He shouldn't
00:43:40 OK.
00:43:43 You, too, Rose, if you want a ride.
00:43:45 I'd love one.
00:44:33 I'm going out amongst 'em, boys.
00:46:07 Gumballs...
00:46:10 Gumballs!
00:46:45 My feet sure do hurt.
00:46:49 I bet they don't hurt as much as mine.
00:46:52 Why do yours hurt?
00:46:56 Incredible, the swiftness of it.
00:47:09 The girl strikes like a cobra.
00:47:25 That girl bothers me.
00:47:27 She bothers you?
00:47:29 In what way, dear?
00:47:31 It is a little tedious
00:47:38 You think Rose is tedious?
00:47:41 I don't think she's tedious.
00:47:43 I think
00:47:46 From a man's standpoint,
00:47:54 She's back.
00:47:58 I thought you liked Rose.
00:48:03 I just hope she
00:48:06 Hotcha character?
00:48:09 What you don't understand is,
00:48:12 it's positive energy on this planet.
00:48:14 It's what we do with it
00:48:18 Darling, don't go off
00:48:30 Every time...
00:48:32 Every time I say something important,
00:48:36 you always say
00:48:42 Well I don't entirely grasp
00:48:46 I respect it.
00:48:48 Then I wish you wouldn't
00:48:51 that go against life itself.
00:48:54 What's so cynical about hoping
00:48:58 She just wants
00:49:04 We are not going to argue about this.
00:49:06 I can see that you are beyond reason.
00:49:10 So are you, dear.
00:49:19 I don't want to talk to you.
00:49:21 I'm not going to talk with you.
00:49:26 I can't hear you.
00:49:28 Sweetheart, your hearing aid
00:49:34 I said be quiet.
00:49:39 I have nothing to say.
00:49:43 or even respect me.
00:50:02 I love and adore you, sweetheart.
00:50:11 Do you?
00:50:22 I just hope that Rose's bite
00:50:26 It's not.
00:50:31 It isn't sex she wants. It's love.
00:50:34 Those silly clothes she wears
00:50:37 is the only way she knows to get it.
00:50:41 You may be right, but I'm afraid we'll
00:50:49 I disagree with you.
00:50:54 And she loves children.
00:50:56 She loves everybody,
00:51:01 Everybody.
00:51:05 No, it's a beautiful quality.
00:51:10 You're right as rain, sweetheart.
00:51:26 You sleepy?
00:51:30 You sleepy?
00:51:36 Can you hear me?
00:52:38 Rose!
00:52:40 The scruffy man is back in the garden.
00:52:45 I'm going to call Daddy.
00:52:49 Have a good stay.
00:52:52 Grand Hotel.
00:52:53 The scruffy looking man is back.
00:52:57 I'll be right there.
00:53:11 Where is he?
00:53:18 Come here! Come back here, you!
00:53:23 Come back here!
00:53:37 I couldn't catch him.
00:53:39 He ran like a deer.
00:53:50 I don't know him.
00:53:55 Doll, I got St. Louis
00:53:58 I don't care about your radio.
00:00:06 Her basic intelligence
00:00:10 Then why does she act so dumb?
00:00:14 Daddy petrifies her so intensely,
00:00:19 And she doesn't like to think anyhow.
00:00:21 Son-of-bitch! What're you doing here?
00:00:39 Knock me out!
00:01:06 I got a loaded shotgun,
00:01:14 And don't come back.
00:01:25 You children go to bed.
00:01:39 Very good, Rose.
00:01:41 Waski would like some.
00:01:44 Give her your juice glass.
00:01:49 Waski, pass the syrup to your brother.
00:01:58 Doll, do you want some?
00:02:16 Well, Rose..
00:02:20 So was Mrs. Hillyer's
00:02:25 Was your sleep disturbed, too?
00:02:27 Why, yes, it was.
00:02:31 Strange voices, Rose?
00:02:35 Rose,
00:02:38 I'm not behaving
00:02:42 Those men had a fight
00:02:46 and it wasn't Dolly or Mrs. Hillyer.
00:02:54 Well, it's because...
00:03:00 I don't know them.
00:03:03 Darling?
00:03:05 I don't think Rose is well.
00:03:10 It's not my fault
00:03:17 Rose, when I have to
00:03:21 against 2 scoundrels in the bushes...
00:03:24 They weren't scoundrels.
00:03:27 Boyfriends of Rose's
00:03:31 Don't you think she's human,
00:03:34 Just a moment, dear.
00:03:36 All I meant is, I wouldn't want
00:03:41 traipsing out at night,
00:03:43 meeting strange orangutans
00:03:47 I'm not going to listen to this.
00:03:50 We're having a conversation,
00:03:53 Darling, please.
00:03:57 It's the South with its
00:04:02 and oppression of women.
00:04:05 The South has
00:04:09 You cannot fire this girl.
00:04:14 Not while I
00:04:17 to squeeze the trigger, and shoot you
00:04:30 I don't intend to fire her.
00:04:32 You don't'?
00:04:38 Rose, I told you she's your friend,
00:04:45 Yes, sir.
00:04:46 Thanks to her, you get another chance.
00:04:52 There are growing children here.
00:04:56 Yes, sir, I do.
00:04:59 I'm gonna tell Foster
00:05:09 I'm playing
00:05:12 Nine ball in the corner.
00:05:17 Read 'em and weep, boy.
00:05:22 Mr. Hillyer,
00:05:25 What exactly happened?
00:05:27 There was a brawl
00:05:31 The fur was flying, the gal
00:05:36 You know Horton, the bootlegger?
00:05:41 Scoundrel is right. He near
00:05:45 This girl was the cause of it all.
00:05:47 She bit a police officer's thumb
00:05:51 She was real upset.
00:05:55 No, I didn't mean to bite him.
00:06:00 I believe she mite be sick.
00:06:04 No, I'm not, Mr. Hillyer.
00:06:09 You wouldn't want her
00:06:14 She's your girl, Mr. Hillyer.
00:06:17 You want me to release her to you?
00:06:22 But I guess we'll have to do that.
00:06:27 Le t the crazy creature out
00:06:47 I didn't mean to bite him.
00:06:49 He was hitting Horton real mean,
00:06:52 and I just bit him accidental.
00:06:57 I have to get back to the hotel.
00:07:00 I'll speak to you later, Rose.
00:07:20 What is Rose going to do?
00:07:25 I don't know. They're still in there.
00:07:30 Daddy will kill you, Buddy!
00:07:34 Who says that our morals
00:07:39 The idea that one set of morals
00:07:43 Ridiculous!
00:07:45 Maybe so, but Rose has never hurt
00:07:49 She bit
00:07:52 I'm sure that in her heart,
00:07:57 Good intentions are what
00:08:00 You can have a good heart
00:08:05 Excuse me.
00:08:15 I could have sworn I saw that boy.
00:08:19 Rascal.
00:08:26 I just don't understand how
00:08:31 She has a loving nature.
00:08:33 You should want
00:08:37 Why do you think all men like her?
00:08:42 You mean sex?
00:08:45 Anybody with common sense can be
00:08:50 She has love in her heart.
00:08:54 Sweetheart,
00:09:02 Well, let me talk to her.
00:09:10 What's happening?
00:09:25 Mother fought like a tiger, but...
00:09:31 She might.
00:09:34 What did Rose do?
00:09:38 She shouldn't have bitten anyone,
00:09:43 She didn't do anything really bad.
00:09:56 Dear, are you alright?
00:09:59 Rose, you're ill.
00:10:00 You're burning up!
00:10:09 I don't need to go to the hospital.
00:10:14 No you won't. You listen.
00:10:24 We're coming right behind you.
00:10:27 It's a safe place.
00:10:39 We're going to say a prayer for Rose.
00:10:42 It's going to be alright.
00:10:49 She's in here.
00:11:16 The girl's as strong as an ox.
00:11:21 But not many people
00:11:25 She looks terrible. She looks awful.
00:11:28 Of course. And I am puzzled
00:11:33 Her illness was grossly neglected,
00:11:38 We didn't know she was so sick.
00:11:42 I think normal powers of observation
00:11:49 Rose hid it from us.
00:11:54 Afraid of the hospital?
00:11:56 Deathly afraid. Her people are poor
00:12:03 That girl is a product
00:12:09 Yes. She's from a poor dirt farm.
00:12:12 I find that unbelievable.
00:12:14 Aside from her illness at the moment,
00:12:18 and a splendid specimen
00:12:24 And a comely one.
00:12:27 She has the figure of a Venus do Milo.
00:12:30 She definitely got protein as a child.
00:12:33 Rose is an amazing girl.
00:12:36 We took her to our dentist.
00:12:41 Just so.
00:12:43 You don't get perfect teeth
00:12:47 She had protein. Which also accounts
00:12:52 Her what?
00:12:56 Lung capacity, sir.
00:12:58 That's why I believe she will survive,
00:13:04 That's all I want to know.
00:13:06 Thank you for your discourse, Doctor.
00:13:10 Now let's get out of here
00:13:17 Thank you, Doctor.
00:13:18 I beg you pardon... "Epi-zoo-tics"?
00:13:22 You mean "Epi-zo-o-tics"?
00:13:25 No, I mean epi-zoo-tics.
00:13:33 T elling me about epizootics!
00:13:37 You don't like him because
00:13:43 Rosebud looked pitiful in that bed.
00:13:46 I hope she's alright.
00:13:50 How can you think of that
00:13:53 When she recovers, dear.
00:14:11 He's so smart and good inside.
00:14:14 And so unhappy with a rich wife not
00:14:20 You're too uncritical of people.
00:14:24 But you don't know
00:14:27 He's so soothing, so smart,
00:14:34 He practically gets tears in his eyes,
00:14:39 He says to me, "My dear,
00:14:42 you are beautiful."
00:14:46 Wasn't that a nice thing
00:14:50 What could cheer a girl up more?
00:14:52 Rose, I have doubts about that doctor.
00:14:56 He has doubts about hisself.
00:15:00 The poor man thinks nobody likes him.
00:15:03 I'd believe it.
00:15:07 For everyone, especially the coloreds.
00:15:09 That's nice of him,
00:15:14 Yes, they do,
00:15:19 Then why does he say it?
00:15:21 T o look better than everyone else.
00:15:29 Dr. Martinson!
00:15:32 It's very damp outside.
00:15:35 Rose is feeling so much better.
00:15:40 Let me be the judge of that, Madam.
00:15:44 Her room is at the head of the stairs.
00:15:51 When is that polecat
00:15:55 Dr. Martinson is a very good doctor.
00:16:00 I don't care
00:16:03 Anyway, I have a plan for Rose.
00:16:07 She dresses too provocatively,
00:16:11 Where are you going?
00:16:28 Everything all right, Doctor?
00:16:33 She's getting healthy.
00:17:05 Rose, you look so pretty.
00:17:07 You're sweet
00:18:12 Darling,
00:18:14 now she is a different person.
00:18:17 Being sick made an impression on her.
00:18:34 Open this door, Rose!
00:18:38 Open it or I'll break it down!
00:18:42 Open the door, damn you!
00:18:45 You got a man in there.
00:18:48 Rose,
00:18:52 Rose, procrastination won't help you!
00:18:55 Where is he?
00:18:57 I knwo he's here. - There's nobody!
00:19:04 Where have you got him hid?
00:19:11 And who, may I ask, is that?
00:19:18 Well...
00:19:20 That's Billy.
00:19:25 Billy's very poor, ain't got no money.
00:19:30 Silly question.
00:19:31 He's nice. You'd like him.
00:19:35 Ye gods and little fishes, a fireman.
00:19:40 Put something on, You're naked.
00:19:45 I think your friend Billy is injured.
00:19:48 Where are his clothes?
00:19:53 Under the mattress.
00:19:55 I didn't want to be mad.
00:20:00 I can't marry him. He's got no money,
00:20:06 ... but he loves me,
00:20:08 and I was thinking...
00:20:11 Oh, I won't hurt him, Rose.
00:20:16 I hadn't ought to have done it.
00:20:18 But I am only a human girl person.
00:20:28 Don't fire me.
00:20:36 Rosebud, you break my heart.
00:20:42 But I am only a human man person,
00:20:54 Pack your bag, baby.
00:20:56 As of this moment
00:21:33 This country
00:21:36 and I can't stand Rose!
00:21:42 Hear ye, hear ye, I've got news.
00:21:47 and Rose,
00:21:51 Tennessee?
00:21:54 What kind of job is it?
00:21:59 You mean a farm? - No, not exactly.
00:22:06 Honey, Rose
00:22:10 Rose, this isn't a dirt farm like
00:22:15 Nieghbor of cousin Hop's.
00:22:20 It's a beautiful dairy establishment.
00:22:24 It's ideal.
00:22:26 How can you call it ideal? You know
00:22:30 It isn't a farm. - Calling it a
00:22:35 She's goin' there tomorrow.
00:22:37 And I must say, it is selfish
00:22:42 I'm crying
00:22:46 Who?
00:22:47 I hate to think of the baby
00:22:55 What baby is that?
00:22:59 Mine. I'm going to have one.
00:23:05 Good God Almighty!
00:23:08 This is a calamity!
00:23:14 You poor thing.
00:23:18 Who's the father, dear?
00:23:23 I know this is embarrassing, but
00:23:25 who were you exposed to, dear?
00:23:30 Well, Mrs. Hillyer,
00:23:34 This is no good line of questioning.
00:23:38 That's why I'm asking who he is.
00:23:40 It is the most vital question.
00:23:44 She doesn't know.
00:23:48 Unless... Rose!
00:23:52 Was there ore than one person?
00:23:57 It's kind of hard to think right now.
00:24:03 Oh, I know. But I didn't really.
00:24:08 he's out of town and didn't
00:24:16 No forwarding address?
00:24:21 In the shock of this,
00:24:24 Rose will lie.
00:24:27 I am, too!
00:24:29 You are not!
00:24:33 Tell us, Rose.
00:24:37 I hadn't had my period in 3 months
00:24:45 I don't believe it.
00:24:48 All right.
00:24:51 You've had your clothes off enough.
00:24:55 Pull up your dress
00:24:58 Honey!
00:25:00 She can keep her panties on.
00:25:04 You just won't believe me.
00:25:10 I don't mind.
00:25:17 See?
00:25:21 I'd say about three months.
00:25:33 What did you say she had?
00:25:37 What is that?
00:25:40 I'm not surprised you thought that.
00:25:43 An ovarian cyst
00:25:47 But that's just wishful thinking.
00:25:49 She's lost her reproductive capacity.
00:25:53 She had gonorrhea at age 15,
00:25:57 Gonorrhea?
00:26:00 She also had tuberculosis.
00:26:04 But the Gonorrhea caused irreparable
00:26:09 She can never have children.
00:26:11 That's very sad. Poor Rose.
00:26:16 Just so.
00:26:20 I think it unlikely.
00:26:23 You're right. She thinks
00:26:27 She is an adult, Mr. Hillyer.
00:26:32 If she survives the surgery,
00:26:36 No. It's a blessing, really.
00:26:39 And a stroke of luck
00:26:44 This operation
00:26:49 important in the case of this girl,
00:26:52 who suffers not only from a cyst,
00:26:57 Neurotic condition?
00:26:59 Go ahead, Doctor.
00:27:02 Evidently, she has been
00:27:08 She has absolutely
00:27:14 Pray continue, Doctor.
00:27:16 As a rule, I don't
00:27:20 The woman's hormonal system
00:27:23 She may become depressed,
00:27:25 and certain secondary sexual
00:27:30 Her breasts
00:27:34 Facial hair may appear, along with
00:27:39 And of course, her sexual drive
00:27:44 For these reasons I am opposed
00:27:47 to removing the womb and other ovary.
00:27:51 As a rule. Do you follow me, sir?
00:27:54 I'm ahead of you.
00:27:58 I think we both know her.
00:28:02 Yes, we do.
00:28:04 I don't understand this bushy talk.
00:28:06 Mrs. Hillyer, this girl is sick,
00:28:11 She is an extreme psychoneurotic
00:28:16 We can spare her the suffering
00:28:21 ... and others.
00:28:25 Therefore, I recommend,
00:28:27 as a theraputic measure,
00:28:31 I feel
00:28:34 And I suspect that your husband
00:28:37 agrees with me.
00:28:41 Reluctantly, I do. It would be
00:28:46 But the girl is oversexed.
00:28:49 And I say,
00:28:52 spay her.
00:28:53 Over my dead body!
00:29:04 Are you human beings?
00:29:06 Or some kind of male monsters?
00:29:10 Is there no limit to what you'll do to
00:29:15 Illusions?
00:29:18 You'd go so far
00:29:22 with no means of defending herself?
00:29:25 I know what you just said.
00:29:27 Do you think I don't understand
00:29:30 the dreadful, revolting crime
00:29:45 I thought I knew you better.
00:29:48 I thought... in your heart...
00:29:54 A defenseless girl, trusting you
00:29:58 to protect her,
00:30:05 Well, now...
00:30:08 I thought it sounded reasonable.
00:30:14 If I thought that you meant it,
00:30:20 I wouldn't want to live.
00:30:23 You look me in the eye.
00:30:27 Could you really take Rose's womanhood
00:30:32 May I say,
00:30:37 but in the case
00:30:45 I must admit,
00:30:51 She's so attractive and pretty...
00:30:57 But...
00:31:01 ... no... no.
00:31:08 It would be bad for any young woman,
00:31:12 whether it be Rose,
00:31:14 or our Doll Baby
00:31:20 I was wrong, and you're right.
00:31:25 And you are wrong.
00:31:30 I'm sorry, darling. Please forgive me.
00:31:34 I was dead wrong.
00:31:46 I will not cry like a woman.
00:31:50 Now you get this straight.
00:31:52 I don't have very much money any more,
00:31:56 but I can raise quite a few
00:32:01 And if you hurt that girl,
00:32:04 I'll hire lawyers,
00:32:10 I'll ruin you.
00:32:15 Just so.
00:32:17 Actually, I won't operate.
00:32:20 I don't do major surgery.
00:32:24 and of course, he shall be
00:32:29 Let him be guided not by my wishes,
00:32:33 nor by Rose's wishes,
00:32:37 Let him be guided
00:32:39 by the wishes
00:32:44 because that is
00:33:08 I thought I'd seen it all, but this is
00:33:13 How is she?
00:33:24 You're looking chipper, Rose.
00:33:26 I feel perfect. Except for the scar,
00:33:32 Well, we know you been there.
00:33:36 and it's pretty blood-curdling.
00:33:39 I'm going to pay you back.
00:33:43 I could take a job as a waitress.
00:33:47 Absolutely not, Rose.
00:33:50 You're not working
00:33:54 Well, I have a hotel to run.
00:33:58 "Room and a bath
00:34:01 I married a rich woman,
00:34:06 Morning, ladies.
00:34:35 Buddy?
00:34:39 I'm going to have to leave here.
00:34:44 I have to go.
00:34:49 Why do you say that, Rose?
00:34:52 I got to, Buddy.
00:34:59 Why did you
00:35:03 I don't know.
00:35:07 When I was a child,
00:35:13 Five hundred rabbits??
00:35:16 At least.
00:35:19 We had them in orange crates.
00:35:24 Daddy thought we could sell them.
00:35:26 but only country folk eat rabbit.
00:35:33 We had to eat them all our ownselves.
00:35:36 It took four years to eat them all.
00:35:41 The doctor said you got protein.
00:35:46 Later on,
00:35:50 all Daddy was doing was killing
00:35:58 It would have beed good
00:36:01 That was when I run off to Birmingham.
00:36:06 That daddy of yours
00:36:12 Yeah, I guess he was.
00:36:18 How old were you when you ran away?
00:36:24 Fourteen? How did you live?
00:36:26 I looked a lot older,
00:36:38 Your daddy killed himself?
00:36:41 He fell in the river drunk.
00:36:45 What was your momma like?
00:36:49 A saint. Just like your own.
00:36:54 What did she die of?
00:36:57 Same thing as Lunette, typhoid and TB.
00:37:01 Was Lunette like you?
00:37:07 Lunette
00:37:12 Mother says it's a miracle
00:37:16 That your bad environment
00:37:20 Buddy,
00:37:24 Don't you guess them millionaires
00:37:31 500 rabbits...
00:37:34 Maybe it was eating all them
00:37:38 Sex don't mean nothing to me.
00:37:44 A mosquito bite?
00:37:48 Buddy, I'll tell you a secret.
00:37:55 Girls don't want sex.
00:37:58 Girls want love.
00:38:02 Mother says that. - Then it must be
00:39:29 I want to thank you
00:39:35 Can I see you in the morning?
00:39:39 You sure can.
00:39:58 You'll never guess what happened.
00:40:04 Who do you suppose he is?
00:40:06 The policeman whose thumb I bit.
00:40:10 He's Mr. Right.
00:40:24 Knowing the seriousness of marriage,
00:40:27 before God and these people?
00:40:32 We are.
00:40:37 You can sit down now.
00:40:39 Would you join your right hands?
00:40:45 David, repeat after me.
00:40:48 promise with God's help
00:40:55 to love and to serve you
00:41:01 as long as we both shall live."
00:41:05 Rose?
00:41:07 "I, Rose,
00:41:09 promise with God's help
00:41:16 to love and to serve you
00:41:21 as long as we both shall live."
00:41:50 Do I see a monkey?
00:41:53 You three want ice-cream?
00:41:55 Do you like picnics now? I love them!
00:41:58 It isn't a picnic, it's a barbecue.
00:42:03 A picnic doesn't involve roast meats.
00:42:06 At a barbecue
00:42:14 Well...
00:42:16 these kids still want ice-cream.
00:42:19 Come on.
00:42:27 We love you. We'll miss you.
00:42:31 We all love you.
00:42:37 Behave yourself, you hear?
00:42:44 I love you.
00:42:46 Did you give her a suitable goodbye?
00:42:55 Bye, Buddy.
00:43:00 I love you, Buddy.
00:43:02 I love you, too.
00:43:31 I love you all.
00:43:58 Thank God we're rid of her at last.
00:44:01 And she's happy,
00:44:04 Yes, she's happy.
00:44:07 Of course,
00:44:10 Ain't much furniture in his house.
00:44:17 Now, honey, he is Mr. Right.
00:44:20 Well, he adores her.
00:44:23 I hope she ain't too much for him.
00:44:28 He's crying, Mother.
00:44:46 Of course Dave wasn't Mr. Right.
00:44:51 It took her 4 husbands to find him.
00:44:57 And I do believe
00:45:00 Some people
00:45:05 I knew from the way
00:45:08 ... there was sad news about Rose.
00:45:11 Maybe that's why
00:45:14 Daddy?
00:45:30 Hello, old man. How you doing?
00:45:34 I'll be damned. Look who's here.
00:45:39 Good to see you, son.
00:45:45 You're looking chipper.
00:45:52 You bring any Yankee whiskey with you?
00:45:55 I don't mind. I'm only 133.
00:46:00 Now what's this about Rose?
00:46:05 There is some sad news.
00:46:07 I would have written, but I thought
00:46:14 When I look at the river,
00:46:18 I was 13 when I saw Rose
00:46:24 carrying that suitcase.
00:46:29 Well?
00:46:33 We have our drinks.
00:46:37 You have prepared me for it.
00:46:40 Rose isn't well.
00:46:47 No, son. She's dead.
00:46:59 Rose is dead?
00:47:01 I'm afraid so.
00:47:03 About a week ago.
00:47:04 Her husband phoned me. She asked him
00:47:30 You have
00:47:35 I know.
00:47:37 You loved her.
00:47:39 You loved her, and so did I.
00:47:43 It was an awful shock to me, too, son.
00:47:47 Rose was so alive...
00:47:51 It's hard to believe.
00:48:00 Nobody lives forever,
00:48:03 That's a horrible thing to say.
00:48:06 Get a grip, boy. She had a good life.
00:48:12 What are you blubbering about?
00:48:16 I'm not blubbering.
00:48:37 Rose isn't dead, son, not really.
00:48:39 Some of us die,
00:48:44 Rose lives.
00:49:23 Don't worry about it, boy.
00:49:26 She's at rest with mother
00:49:31 She's at rest with mother.
