- Can't let him go
the Reverend Lord Henry D'Ascoyne.
- The breeze from the bayou
- The D'Ascoynes certainly appear...
- to have accorded with the tradition of the landed gentry...
- Keeps murmuring low
- and sent the fool of the family into the church.
- Tammy, Tammy
- Please stand.
- You love him so
- When the night is warm, soft and warm
- Get into line.
- I long for his charms
- Turn.
- I'd sing like a violin
- Good night, boys.
- [ In Unison ] Good night, sir.
- Off you go.
[ Man In Film ] You're a shower, an absolute shower.
There's no other word for it.
- And you, Windrush, you're an absolute rotter.
- Wish I knew if he knew
What I'm dreamin' of
Tammy
Tammy's in love

[ Boys Chuckling ]
[ Albie ]
Come on, let's go.
[ Mother Vocalizing ]
Aren't you goin' to the pictures?
I've got no one to go with.
What about Albie?
He's just gone past with John Hughes.
Can't you run after them and ask can you go with them?
[ Mother ] If I had my life
To live over
I would still do
The same things again
I would still love to roam
To that place I call home
Where happiness never
Would end
I'd meet you [ Echoing ]
When school days were over
And we'd walk down the lanes
We once knew
[ Crying ]
- If I had my life
- [ Lid Clangs Shut ]
To live over again
I would still
Fall in love
With you
[ Orson Welles ] And now it came at last:
George Amberson Minafer had got his comeuppance.
He got it three times filled...
and running over.
But those who had so longed for it
were not there to see it...
and they never knew it.
Those who were still living...
had forgotten all about it...
and all about him.

wind erosion.
The waters of the seas readily respond by movement...
to the brushing of the wind over the surface...
to the variations of temperature and salinity...
to the gravitational attraction of the moon and sun...
and to the Coriolis force.
A tides and currents."
[ Martita Hunt In Film ]
Do you know what that is?
There?
It's a great cake,
a bride-cake.
Mine!
On this day of the year, long before you were born...
this heap of decay was brought here.
It and I have worn away together.
Mice have gnawed at it...
and sharper teeth than teeth of mice...
have gnawed at me.
And I have a fancy I should like to see someone play.
Play.
[ Bud ]
What did you get for Christmas, Albie?
[ Albie ]
A cowboy outfit and a Bren gun.
[ Bud ]
Our Kevin bought me a watch.
[ Bud ]
Some of those stars are dead.
The light from them started out when Jesus was alive.
How do you know?
Our Titchie said.
[ Bell Tolling ]
[ Men's Chamber Chorus ]
No star is o'er the lake
Its pale watch keeping
The moon is half awake
Through gray mist creeping
The last red leaves fall
'Round the porch of roses
The clock has ceased to sound
The long day closes
Sit by the silent hearth
In calm endeavor
To count the sounds of mirth
Now dumb forever
Heed not how hope believes
And fate disposes
Shadow is 'round the eaves
The long day closes
The lighted windows
The lighted windows dim
Are fading slowly
The fire that was so trim
Now quivers lowly
Quivers lowly
Go to the dreamless bed
Where grief reposes
Thy book of toil is read
The long day closes
Go to the dreamless bed
Where grief reposes
Thy book of toil is read
Go to the dreamless bed
The dreamless bed
The long day
Closes
