Then get out, go anywhere you want, go to a hotel, go live with her, and don't come back....

Something wrong with the clip?

Quote

Louise Schumacher: Then get out, go anywhere you want, go to a hotel, go live with her, and don't come back. Because, after 25 years of building a home and raising a family and all the senseless pain that we have inflicted on each other, I'm damned if I'm going to stand here and have you tell me you're in love with somebody else. Because this isn't a convention weekend with your secretary, is it? Or - or some broad that you picked up after three belts of booze. This is your great winter romance, isn't it? Your last roar of passion before you settle into your emeritus years. Is that what's left for me? Is that my share? She gets the winter passion, and I get the dotage? What am I supposed to do? Am I supposed to sit at home knitting and purling while you slink back like some penitent drunk? I'm your wife, damn it. And, if you can't work up a whit of passion for me, the least I require is respect and allegiance. I hurt. Don't you understand that? I hurt badly.

I'm in love with her. Then get out! Go anywhere you want. Go to a hotel, go live with her, but don't come back. Because after 25 years... ...of building a home and raising a family and all the senseless pain... ...that we have inflicted on each other, I'm damned if I'm gonna stand here... ...and have you tell me you're in love with somebody else. Because this isn't a convention weekend with your secretary, is it? Or some broad that you picked up after three belts of booze. This is your great winter romance, isn't it? Your last roar of passion before you settle into your emeritus years. Is that what's left for me? Is that my share? She gets the winter passion and I get the dotage. What am I supposed to do? Am I supposed to sit home knitting and purling while you slink back... ...like some penitent drunk? I'm your wife, damn it. If you can't work up a winter passion for me... ...the least I require is respect and allegiance. I hurt, don't you understand that? I hurt badly. Oh, say something, for God's sake. I've got nothing to say. I won't give you up easily, Max. I think perhaps it is better if you move out. Does she love you, Max? I'm not sure she's capable of any real feelings. She's television generation. She learned life from Bugs Bunny. The only reality she knows comes to her over the TV set. She's very carefully devised a number of scenarios... ...for all of us to play, like the Movie of the Week. My God, look at us, Louise. Here we are going through the obligatory middle of Act 2... ...scorned-wife-throws peccant-husband-out scene. But don't worry, I'll come back to you in the end. All of her plot outlines have me leaving her... ...and coming back to you, because the audience won't buy... ...a rejection of the happy American family. She does have one script in which I kill myself.
