00:26Why did you change your mind?
00:30Talking movies, at last.

00:38Marseille, what are you doing here?
00:44I don't want you to write just any old thing about us.
00:47Because wherever you went, I went.
00:53I don't care. I want to play Caesar.
00:56And why is that?
00:59You talk about leaving the theatre. You don't have the right.
