Quote
Norma Desmond:
You went out last night, didn't you, Joe?
Joe Gillis:
Why do you say that?
Norma Desmond:
I just happen to know it. I had a nightmare! I screamed for you but you weren't here! Where were you?
Joe Gillis:
I went for a walk.
Norma Desmond:
No you didn't. You took the car.
Joe Gillis:
Alright. I drove to the beach. Norma, you don't want me to feel that I'm locked up in this house!
Norma Desmond:
Of course not, Joe, it's... it's just that I don't want to be left alone! Not while I'm under this terrible strain! My nerves are being torn to shreds! All I ask is for you to be a little patient and little kind.
Joe Gillis:
Norma, I haven't done anything.
Norma Desmond:
[possessively grabbing a lock of his hair]
Of course you haven't, I wouldn't let you. Good night, darling.
Joe Gillis (as narrator):
Yes, I was playing hooky every evening. It made me think when I was 12 and used to sneak out on the folks to see a gangster picture. This time it wasn't to see a picture, it was to try and write one.
