00:00:00The End
00:00:30Southern Secreteaux, can I help you?
00:00:32Yes. You were advertising a temporary typist for an author.
00:00:35Yes, the author. You do know where this is, don't you?
00:00:38As a matter of fact, I do.
00:00:40It's right out in the sticks. I know.
00:00:42Ah. Have you any experience?
00:00:44Yes. I've worked with a novelist before.
00:00:47You'd better come and see it.
00:00:48Okay, bye. Bye.
00:01:00Bye.
00:01:30Bye.
00:02:00Bye.
00:02:30The centre of the plot, i.e., when the main characters come together,
00:02:42basically, it's about human chemistry.
00:02:45Well, Martin, Deadly Silence was the most successful novel
00:02:48that was written or published last year,
00:02:50and I was wondering how long it would take me to write.
00:02:53Well, I started the book in Paris, then I moved into New York,
00:02:57and it took me about six months.
00:03:00Six months? I thought it took you three, is what my notes say.
00:03:04Well, it must be wrong information.
00:03:06When I get inspired, the writing tempo inevitably accelerates.
00:03:11In fact, I know, normally, writers take about nine months,
00:03:15some two, three years.
00:03:16Tell me, why particularly a story about diplomats?
00:03:20Because when I was, oh, about 19,
00:03:22I used to travel a lot to southern France and to Rome, you know,
00:03:25and Paris also, and I actually got to know a lot of people,
00:03:30and it always interested me very much,
00:03:33so that's why I wrote my first book all about it.
00:03:36The Champagne Life.
00:03:39Well, not The Champagne Life.
00:03:41Shall we say The Rolls-Royce Life?
00:03:43No, other people drinking champagne and driving Rolls-Royces.
00:03:47You seem to have an obsession with lifestyle.
00:03:49No, no, no, I don't have an obsession.
00:03:51I simply feel that it's part of my job to write about people that I meet,
00:03:55and people who qualify for the pages of my book.
00:03:59Now, this talk of the catharsis of human development,
00:04:01that you concentrate on so basically in your writing,
00:04:03it's obviously a favorite theme of yours, isn't it?
00:04:05Yes, yeah, yeah, it is.
00:04:07I'm very strong on this subject,
00:04:08and it's always crept into what I write about, always will.
00:04:37Perfect evening.
00:04:48Oh!
00:04:50It's only...
00:05:07...
00:05:28Come on.
00:05:37Oh, we don't usually have tenants, you know.
00:05:39Oh, no, no, no, I tell a lie.
00:05:41We had them last year, now.
00:05:43I come to think of it.
00:05:45The dentist, two of them.
00:05:47Oh, very strange they were.
00:05:49Oh, Commander and Mrs. Percival always go to the south of France for five weeks, you know.
00:05:53Commander and Mrs. Percival always go to the south of France for five weeks, you know, Commander and Mrs. Percival, where no one can get at them out of harm's way.
00:06:11Oh, it's so chesty, the Commander.
00:06:16So chesty.
00:06:18Now, what shall I do about lunch?
00:06:23I could do a nice steak and kidney.
00:06:26No, I haven't decided yet.
00:06:28I don't know anything.
00:06:30Well, when will you know?
00:06:32Later.
00:06:48I've got something out of town.
00:06:49I won't care for you, but you cannot talk about having a deep breath.
00:06:52I've got it.
00:06:53I know that you love.
00:06:55But I can't care for you.
00:06:57We'll just check that out.
00:06:58Let's go.
00:06:59Let's go.
00:07:00Let's go.
00:07:01Let's go.
00:07:02Tony.
00:07:03What?
00:07:04Let's go.
00:07:05Cool.
00:07:06Here.
00:07:07We'll go.
00:07:08Let's go.
00:07:09Let's go.
00:07:11Hey.
00:07:13Good.
00:07:14I'll have you.
00:07:15Good.
00:07:15Good.
00:07:17Good.
00:07:18More coffee.
00:07:20More coffee, please.
00:07:50More coffee, please.
00:08:20More coffee, please.
00:08:50Please, please.
00:08:52Please, please.
00:08:53Please, please.
00:08:54Paul, darling.
00:08:55Where are you?
00:08:57How are you, darling?
00:08:59How are you?
00:09:00Are you all right?
00:09:01Yes.
00:09:02Why not?
00:09:03I was worried.
00:09:04Worried?
00:09:05Worried?
00:09:06Yes.
00:09:07Well, don't be.
00:09:08Well, don't be.
00:09:09You realize, I suppose, that this is a period of intense concentration for me.
00:09:15Intense concentration.
00:09:16You see?
00:09:17If you say so.
00:09:18Suzanne?
00:09:19What?
00:09:20What?
00:09:21A small point.
00:09:22I'd be grateful if you'd keep my whereabouts a secret for the time being, yes?
00:09:27Yes?
00:09:28What?
00:09:29Suzanne?
00:09:30What?
00:09:31I'd be grateful if you'd keep my whereabouts a secret for the time being, yes?
00:09:38What?
00:09:39How much you do?
00:09:40How much you do?
00:09:41How much you do that?
00:09:42What?
00:09:43What?
00:09:44What?
00:09:46How much you?
00:09:48What?
00:09:49You're going to pay us, Keir?
00:10:20Good morning, Vox International. Can I help you?
00:10:32Leo Schumann, please.
00:10:39Paul Martin, Leo.
00:10:40Paul, thank goodness you rang.
00:10:41How's it feeling? You were going to ring me yesterday.
00:10:43But there is two weeks left.
00:10:44Yes, I know.
00:10:47Yeah.
00:10:50All right.
00:10:58Leo, where is the typist?
00:11:01I feel if I can dictate, pace up and down.
00:11:09Thanks, Leo.
00:11:12To harass, to worry, to importune, to pursue, to persecute, decay, crumble, rot, die.
00:11:38Oh, my God.
00:12:08Uh, come on.
00:12:08Come on.
00:12:19Wow!
00:12:19Oh, my God.
00:12:49Oh, my God.
00:13:19Look, the agency got the thing wrong.
00:13:21She's on her way down to you now.
00:13:23Who?
00:13:23The girl, Linda.
00:13:25The type is.
00:13:26Thanks, Leo.
00:13:27The train is still at 11.30.
00:13:29Have to deal with everyone.
00:13:30Fine.
00:13:31The company is still as efficient.
00:13:32Should look after you, okay?
00:13:33Everything else, all right?
00:13:34Thanks, Leo.
00:13:35Don't thank me, Jess.
00:13:36Complete the book.
00:13:37Remember, if it's a good one,
00:13:38we're in line for a critic's prize.
00:13:39And don't you forget it.
00:13:40Oh, my God.

00:16:57There she is.
00:17:01Your bird.
00:17:02Yeah, let's go and see how her body is.
00:17:05Fries me one day.
00:17:06Yeah, well, she loves me, doesn't she?
00:17:22Go on. It's him. I've got him.
00:17:27Oh!
00:17:40Do you always find that dirty?
00:17:41They were after me.
00:17:43Going for me.
00:17:52I suppose you live on your own, do you? At the house?
00:17:55Whenever I can help it, yes.
00:17:58Did you have a housekeeper or someone who does?
00:18:01Does what?
00:18:03Does. Tidies up for you. Cooks.
00:18:06Oh, yes, yes. There's one of those.
00:18:09Why all these questions?
00:18:11Sorry.
00:18:13But I will give you my routine, so you know.
00:18:18It never alters while I'm writing.
00:18:20I get up at eight.
00:18:24My first cup of coffee I always have in the dining room.
00:18:27The blue china.
00:18:28The second cup I take in the study.
00:18:30I would like you to bring me that.
00:18:32Then dictation starts for the rest of the morning.
00:18:35Lunch I like to keep simple.
00:18:38Then we work through until six.
00:18:40It is then when I have my first drink.
00:18:42Always a glass of well-chilled teal pepper.
00:18:47Dinner, always light.
00:18:49Some fish or a quiche.
00:18:51I drink burgundy, not parrot.
00:18:55After dinner, I relax.
00:18:57It's quite a simple routine which works.
00:19:27I don't know.
00:19:30Said the difference fits in?
00:19:32Remember!
00:19:33Say!
00:19:34We ihroud the selected kid!
00:19:36Deb, we won.
00:19:37People not the wine rattle.
00:19:39I eat.
00:19:40We yourus.
00:19:41Miss you dress?
00:19:42Which is the coussell.

00:19:56Flip, lay, stitch Editor!
00:19:57Come on.
00:20:27Your bedroom is upstairs at the end of the corridor.
00:20:57How far is this place from anywhere?
00:21:16Far enough.
00:21:18They turned in at the end of the drive, comma, and Angus stopped the car quietly.
00:21:26Stop.
00:21:27New paragraph.
00:21:27Their kiss was neither tender nor affectionate.
00:21:33Point.
00:21:34It was carnal point.
00:21:37It was lustful point.
00:21:39Wet and greedy point.
00:21:43Lingering.
00:21:45Passionate, but with warmth.
00:21:48Semicolon.
00:21:49Possessive, but with calm.
00:21:53Quotes.
00:21:54I love you.
00:21:56End quotes.
00:21:58Angus's voice soft in the interior.
00:22:00Sorry, Angus's voice soft in the what?
00:22:02Angus's voice soft in the interior.
00:22:05Yes.
00:22:05Full stop.
00:22:08Ice crystals forming on the windscreen and the russet sky.
00:22:12Point.
00:22:13An ironical setting after all there had been.
00:22:17Point.
00:22:19End paragraph.
00:22:21Good.
00:22:23Do you mind if I unpack?
00:22:26What?
00:22:26I said I'll make some coffee.
00:22:28I'll make some coffee.
00:22:58I'll make some coffee.
00:22:58All right.
00:23:03Go.
00:23:06Don't apostasy signify me.
