02 Waterloo Bridge

Roy: Are you glad to see me again?

Myra: Yes.

Roy: I sense a reservation.

Myra: Well, I suppose there is one.

Roy: What? Why?

Myra: What’s the good of it?

Roy: You’re a strange girl, aren’t you? What’s the good of anything? What’s the good of living?

Myra: That’s a question too.

Roy: Oh, now wait a minute. I’m not going to let you get away with that. The wonderful things about living is that, this sort of thing can happen. In the shadow of a death raid, I can meet you and feel more intensely alive than walking around in peacetime and taking my life for granted. I still don’t get it, not quite.

Myra: What?

Roy: Your face. It’s all youth, all beauty.

Myra: What is it you still don’t get?

Roy: You know, when I left you this afternoon, I couldn’t remember what you looked like, not for the life for me. I thought, was she pretty? Was she ugly? What was she like? I couldn’t remember. I simply had to get to that theater tonight to see what she looked like.

Myra: Do you think you will remember me now?

Roy: I think so, I think so, for the rest of my life.

Myra: But what is it about me you still don’t get?

Man: Ladies and gentlemen, we now come to the last dance of the evening. I hope you enjoy the farewell waltz.

Roy: I’ll tell you later. Let’s dance now.

Myra: What does it mean, these candles?

Roy: You’ll find out.

02 魂断蓝桥

洛伊：很高兴再见到我吗？

玛拉：是的。

洛伊：我感到你有保留。

玛拉：我想是有的。

洛伊：那是什么？为什么？

玛拉：有什么好处呢？

洛伊：你是个奇怪的女孩，是不是？有什么好？对生活什么是好的？

玛拉：这也是个问题。

洛伊：不，等一下。我不会让你那么想。生活中美好的事就是会发生这种事情。在空袭的阴影下我遇见了你，这比和平时代到处闲逛，视生命为理所当然要好得多，觉得更充实。我仍不明白。

玛拉：什么？

洛伊：你的脸真年轻，真美。

玛拉：你仍不明白什么。

洛伊：今天下午我离开你时，我记不起你的长相，这辈子也不会记得。我想，她美吗？她丑吗？她长得什么样？我不记得。甚至非得到剧院去看你的长相。

玛拉：你觉得现在记住了吗？

洛伊：我想是的。一辈子记住。

玛拉：你到底有什么不明白的呢？

男人：各位，现在是今晚的最后一曲。希望你们享受这个告别的华尔兹。

洛伊：待会儿告诉你，我们跳舞吧。

玛拉：这些烛光是什么意思？

洛伊：你会明白的。
