How the heck did she ever get mixed up with a guy who sops it up like you do?
Don Birnam:
That's a problem, isn't it. That nice young man who drinks and a high class young lady and how did she ever get mixed up with him? And why does he drink? And why doesn't he stop? That's my novel, Nat. I wanted to start writing it out in the country. Morbid stuff. Nothing for the book-of-the-month club. A horror story! The confessions of a booze addict. The log book of an alcoholic. Oh, come on, Nat, break down, will ya?
[Nat pours Don another drink]
Don Birnam:
You know what I'm going to call my novel? The Bottle. That's all. Very simply, The Bottle. I've got all here in my mind.
