Love Story (1970)

Love Story is a timeless romantic drama film that captivated audiences around the world when it was released in 1970. Directed by Arthur Hiller, this movie tells the heart-wrenching love story of Oliver Barrett IV and Jennifer Cavilleri, two young college students from different social backgrounds who fall deeply in love.

Ryan O'Neal plays the role of Oliver Barrett IV, a wealthy Harvard student with a promising future ahead of him. His portrayal perfectly captures the essence of a young man torn between the love for his family and his unyielding affection for Jennifer. Ali MacGraw delivers a stunning performance as Jennifer Cavilleri, a talented music student from a working-class background. MacGraw's portrayal of Jennifer brings a delicate vulnerability to the character that is both enchanting and sincere.

Supported by a talented cast, including John Marley as Oliver's father and Ray Milland as Jennifer's father, the film beautifully weaves together a tale of young love, societal pressures, and heartbreaking tragedy. The chemistry between O'Neal and MacGraw is palpable, creating an on-screen romance that draws the viewer in, making them feel the intense emotions coursing through the characters' veins.

The movie primarily takes place on the picturesque grounds of Harvard University, adding to the film's charm and romanticism. The iconic scenes of Oliver and Jennifer strolling hand in hand through the campus, stealing kisses in the snow, and declaring their undying love atop Bello Tower have become iconic representations of true love.

What sets Love Story apart is its ability to evoke raw emotions from its audience. The film delves into themes of sacrifice, loss, and the fragility of life, reminding us of the profound impact that love can have on our lives. The hauntingly beautiful score, composed by Francis Lai, heightens these emotions with its melancholic melodies, becoming an integral part of the film's impact.

If you are looking to relive the magic of Love Story, you can easily immerse yourself in its captivating world. You can play the film and download the soundtrack, relishing in the mesmerizing performances and the enchanting musical compositions that transport you back to 1970.

Love Story is not just a movie; it is an experience, a classic that continues to touch the hearts of audiences of all ages. It leaves us contemplating the nature of love and the significance of cherishing every moment with those we hold dear. So sit back, play the film, and allow the poignant story of Oliver and Jennifer to remind you of the power of love and the fleeting nature of life.

A father's love is something to cherish and respect.
A rather distressing one, at that.
A very important personal matter.
About God?
About the church bit.
About what, sir?
Absolutely.
Act as normal as possible...
Actually, I'm smart and poor.
After all, it's part of what you are.
After we blew the title
Again? I thought we had run that gamut.
All I want is one. I've got an hour exam tomorrow, damn it.
All right, but I'll take you out to dinner.
All right, then, we'll adopt kids.
All right! Break it up, you guys!
And a little less to showing us your beautiful voice?
And after I was nearly massacred by the wild Canadian hordes,
And as soon as I found out, I jumped right in the car.
And aspire to drop some golden orb of perfect song
And get out and support me in the manner to which I plan to become accustomed.
And he'll still going to resent you because you were a Harvard jock!
And her... sainted mother always dreamed of a...
And his buddy, too. He's a very nice guy.
And I just don't think I could.
And I think for a girl from her background
And I want time, which you can't give me.
And I'm good, right?
And if that's what you think it's all about,
And me? [Download Movie on www.Mkvking.com]
And permit a place to stand and love in for a day,
And Radcliffe's got a few lousy thousand.
And that you're going to go on to law school.
And The Beatles.
And the William de Jersey Memorial Award
And then Jenny's going to take a job in a private school, teaching.
And then the man and the woman address each other.
And this time, I want crisp diction.
And what about our marriage?
And you'd say OK. OK?
Any other commandments I ought to know about?
Aren't you a good Catholic girl?
Army?
As my wedded husband, from this day forward,
Asleep, thank God!
At least I had the guts to admit what I felt.
Barrett like the poet?
Barrett. 10 H. We've got bags in the car.
Barrett's back in the game. Harvard's at full strength.
Because he leans on me. Because he makes me do the right things.
Because his name is Oliver.
Because I didn't like the way they were treating you.
Because.
Because...
Believe me, when it's time to go to church...
Bigger than All Ivy?
Boy, you're really married.
Break it up! Come on!
Briggs Hall.
Briggs Hall. Sandy Davidson!
Bullshit. You never fell off a cliff in your whole life.
Bullshit. You're looking at my legs.
But I mean, you should always keep at it.
But I said you wouldn't mind.
But it also keeps you from getting touched.
But must you play it while we study?
But there are unpleasant side effects.
But this is the Mongolian section of Cambridge.
But verbal volleyball is not my idea of a relationship.
But you Barretts are so goddamn proud and competitive
But you're staying for dinner, aren't you?
But your name and your numeral.
But, Jenny, I don't need that kind of help.
But... I'm going to need a scholarship.
But... tell me. Is it... What's the word?
By the authority vested in me by the commonwealth of Massachusetts,
By the time he's a freshman, you'll probably be on the Supreme Court.
Can I help you folks?
Can we get a cup of hot chocolate?
Can't you just write a note?
Carry me, and I'll tell you later.
Cavalleri, I've got nothing against music,
Come on, Barrett! Break it up!
Come on, fancy lawyers for Jonas and Marsh don't make house calls.
Come on, let's get him on the phone.
Come on, Ollie, don't be stupid, would you please? It's inevitable.
Come on! Get up!
Come on. Get up.
Comp. Lit. 105, not bad.
Cornell goal, Cashay.
Couldn't you just tell me over there?
Cut the crap and play.
Damn it.
Dean Thompson, I need a scholarship.
Dean Thompson, I'm getting married next month.
Define "Ho, Ho, Ho."
Define "very sick."
Definitely. Not interested.
Did the son of a bitch at least get lousy grades?
Did you at least make the other guy look worse?
Did you ever think I might be pregnant?
Did you get us a tree?
Did your father... Excuse me...
Do I bill and coo and say, "I love you, Phil?"
Do it yourself, huh? I think that's...
Do you have The Waning of the Middle Ages?
Do you know what the big banker Harvard man said to his son?
Do you need any help, old buddy?
Do you think your priest would like this?
Does he have to crawl here on his hands and knees?
Don't call her "she."
Don't go off half cocked, damn it!
Don't they pay you at Jonas and Marsh?
Don't worry about it, we'll get one on the way home.
Don't worry, Jenny.
Don't worry, Jenny. It'll be a breeze.
Don't.
Even at Exeter, he was the very...
Even sooner.
Everybody drives like a maniac.
Everything is an order, a directive, a command.
Face to face,
Fantastic news. Here, read.
Fantastic. You on the other side of a punch out rap.
Father, I haven't... I haven't exactly decided on the law school.
Father, you don't know the time of day.
Fine, thank you.
Fine. Fine, sir. Fine.
Five minutes for number seven. Fight.
For god's sake, Phil!
For the finest senior essay, to Oliver Barrett IV.
For the million and oneth time, yeah.
Francis Lapierre is the captain of the Cornell hockey team.
Friday night's the Dartmouth hockey game.
Get off the ice!
Get there a minute later, but get there.
Get up, you lazy preppie, would you please,
Get up.
Go, team, go! Go, team, go!
God, when I first told him Oliver Barrett...
Good bye.
Good evening. This is Jennifer Barrett.
Good. At least we've got one thing in common.
Had, dean, had.
Harvard goal. Hackman on the assist, Barrett.
Harvard Law School? You got kicked out.
He did, I swear. I mean, at least now you've got something in common.
He kept reminding me of the 11th Commandment.
He rowed single sculls in the 1928 Olympics.
He said "sacred." The priest.
He was only trying to be helpful.
He went all the way up to Ithaca to watch you play hockey?
He'll get in. Who've they got better than Oliver?
He'll thaw, Oliver. He'll thaw, and he'll melt.
He's a distinguished citizen of Boston, who I'm gonna call up...
He's a nice guy, all right. He didn't bullshit me, and that's what I wanted.
He's a Yalie. College and med school.
He's fine. Got into OCS.
He's gonna think you've lost your marbles.
He's not going to be satisfied till he cuts them off.
He's so incredibly blasé and indifferent.
Hello there!
Hello, baby. Phil.
Hello, darling.
Hello, Florence. This is Jenny.
Hello, Jen?
Hey, but that means I make the law review.
Hey, Dr. Shapeley said we both checked out.
Hey, I'm having coffee with a real Harvard building.
Hey, Simpson, let me sack on your couch.
Hey, stop, Oliver. No kidding. Stop the car.
Hey, watch your language. There's a grownup present.
Hey, what happened to you? You look terrible.
Hey, what is this, Barrett? Oh, what is this?
Hey, where's the old Radcliffe confidence?
Hey, you didn't tell me you were related to the Sewell Boathouse.
Hey. How long have you known about this?
Hi.
Ho, ho, ho.
Holy shit!
Hordes in Ithaca?
House calls, Jenny.
How can you see me and still love me?
How I'm going to total that Dartmouth bastard!
How is she?
How many people do you know have to cope with a Barrett Hall?
How often do you visit during the term?
How's it going, Mrs. B?
I always make the other guy look worse.
I am not exactly jumping for joy.
I am not talking legality, preppie. I'm talking ethics.
I believe you. I really do.
I came to see you play.
I can refer you to Dr. Addison.
I can't believe how great you were.
I can't tell you. Just lend me the money, please.
I care.
I didn't think it would be like this.
I don't care, don't you believe that?
I don't dine outdoors with just anybody.
I don't have one.
I don't know.
I don't know. I just couldn't see living in some hotel.
I don't know. I'll look it up.
I don't like to be programmed in the Barrett tradition.
I don't like to have to put out "X" amount of achievement every term.
I don't need Paris. I just want you.
I don't see why you'll need your car in New York.
I fail to see how marrying a beautiful and brilliant
I find it rather cute.
I forgot my key.
I give you my hand.
I give you my love, more precious than money.
I give you myself, before preaching or law.
I have to admit that it's... even worse than I expected.
I hope so. I mean, Phil made a few promises.
I know enough.
I know I'm... I mean, that's...
I know, but can I help it if you think so?
I like your body.
I love watching you dodge and weave.
I love you.
I mean at Radcliffe, every hall is Barrett Hall.
I mean, don't you find that rather odd?
I mean, Harvard's got five million books,
I mean, he just couldn't believe it.
I mean, I didn't think you'd stop at anything just to get to your old man.
I mean, I guess I never thought
I mean, please don't, sir.
I mean, she's not some crazy hippie.
I mean, what could be better than Mozart...
I mean, what play?
I mean... I know that I love not only you,
I meant for your stomach, Oliver.
I need to borrow $5,000 for a very good reason.
I never look terrible. I look OK for Thursday evening, OK?
I once knew all The Mozart Köchel listings.
I pronounce you man and wife.
I quite agree. He's bound to be graduated with honors.
I really did. I used to know all those things.
I said, "You know, Ms. Whitman, even Barretts have to pay their rent."
I see. Thank you.
I think I'm supposed to eat with the team, sir.
I think you can handle it.
I thought you wanted to spend it with me.
I thought you were gonna call when the meeting broke.
I told her how very proud I was to be a member
I told Phil you could have a Catholic service
I told you I liked it best when I supported you.
I want her to have the very best.
I want to get my letter with everyone else, please.
I want you to be merry.
I was just OK, OK?
I was merely asking whether the law school had decided on you.
I was saying that there's no way of knowing how long she'll linger.
I wasn't aware that there was a subject.
I wasn't.
I went to Radcliffe. I'm supposed to remember those things.
I will be when he carries me over the threshold.
I will, baby. I will.
I wish I hadn't promised Jenny to be strong for you.
I wish I hadn't promised Jenny...
I wish...
I won't allow it! I will not allow it!
I would only ask that you... wait a bit.
I wouldn't go for coffee with you.
I, Jennifer Cavalleri, take you, Oliver Barrett,
I, Oliver Barrett, take you, Jennifer Cavalleri,
I...
I'd like Jack Wells to take a look at it Monday.
I'd like you to meet Jennifer Calaveri.
I'll be nearby.
I'll break yours before you break mine!
I'll call you if I need you.
I'll kick your ass all the way back to Montreal.
I'll tell you after we cross the threshold.
I'll walk you to your car.
I'm actually getting to like the name Bozo.
I'm counting on you to be strong, you goddamn hockey jock.
I'm going to study with Nadia Boulanger, aren't I?
I'm gonna call his goddamn father. I'll go to Boston, even!
I'm injured.
I'm leaving. Good bye.
I'm not watching you study. I'm studying.
I'm saying it now.
I'm sorry to have to tell you this.
I'm sorry you had to come all the way up here to see Harvard lose.
I'm sorry.
I'm studying the music, preppie. It's called Analysis of Form.
I'm studying.
I'm studying. I'm really studying.
I'm terribly sorry, sir. I mean...
I'm up there with Bach and Mozart?
I'm wealthy. I'm rich, really.
I'm with children. Can't it wait?
I've got something important I want to tell you.
I've never asked you to do anything in my whole life.
I've never been to a do it yourself.
If I was Ms. Cavalleri, I'd be the queen of Paris.
If that's what you wish,
If this thing is real, it will stand the test of time.
If you have to take your wife to dinner in the middle of the week,
If you're so convinced I'm a loser,
In a few minutes, I'm gonna lose my nerve. What is the number?
In my whole life, I have never deliberately hurt anyone,
In the 18th century.
Into our deep, dear silence.
Is absolutely impossible this side of Mongolia.
Is the lady all right?
Is the most important thing she needs.
It doesn't hurt, Ollie. Really, it doesn't.
It is real, but I don't see why I have to put it to some arbitrary test.
It will really help him a lot, you know?
It's a parting of the ways.
It's a risk, isn't it, Jenny?
It's amazing.
It's an honors program.
It's going, preppie. The troops will be home for Christmas.
It's impossible to get to Oliver Barrett III.
It's like falling off a cliff in slow motion, you know?
It's nobody's fault.
It's not easy to live with history staring you in the face.
It's not gonna do any good, goddamn it!
It's not your fault.
It's not... nothing special.
It's siesta time. I've got 45 minutes.
It's... it's new, all right.
Jen, it's the name of a real Harvard super jock.
Jen?
Jennifer, I said come here.
Jennifer... just answer "no."
Jenny is very sick.
Jenny, I can't believe he liked my instant poverty.
Jenny, I may not call you for a few months.
Jenny, I... I'm sorry.
Jenny, I'm home.
Jenny, my parents are gonna fall in love with you.
Jenny, you don't believe I love you?
Jenny! Jenny!
Jenny?
Jenny?
Jenny's dead.
Jenny's the boss. Whatever she wants.
Just get the hell out of my life!
Just tell me who performs the wedding.
Just write out a check, father. It's a personal matter.
Just... just wonderful.
Keep going! Come on! Come on!
Keep running! Go! Really run! Come on!
Let me take your wrap.
Let us listen to the words, which they have chosen to read
Let us stay, rather, on earth beloved,
Let's change the subject, huh?
Let's get away from here while we still got a chance.
Let's get him on the phone.
Like what?
Listen, Cavalleri, you're not that great looking.
Listen, I can't pass judgment, Oliver. I just think so.
Listen, I don't want a flabby husband. Stay in shape, would you, please?
Listen, preppie, I know you've got at least a few brains.
Listen, you conceited Radcliffe bitch,
Listen, you're going to have to fend for yourself this weekend.
Listen. let's forget about it. There's no problem, OK?
Look, Harvard is like this big Santa Claus bag stuffed full of crazy toys,
Look, it's not an official goddamn threshold.
Look, Miss Cavalleri, I told you, my name Is Oliver.
Look, we're allowed to use the Radcliffe Library.
Love means never having to say you're sorry.
Love means never having to say you're sorry.
Made in the shade.
Married to foul mouth angel face.
Master Oliver! Hello!
Master? I always knew you had slaves.
Maybe I ought to let you guys...
Me, too, Dean Thompson. Something's come up.
Merely to find out if he knows.
Mother, it doesn't mean a thing. There are a lot of guys trying
Move your ass, preppie.
Mr. Barrett, I really don't think that this office
Mr. Barrett, Oliver would like you to know
Music 150, not bad.
Music 201. That's a graduate course.
My car's over there. Can I give you a lift somewhere?
My father bakes cookies.
My great grandfather happened to give the thing to Harvard.
My mother addressed it.
Never say love if you don't really mean it.
Next year. I have a scholarship in Paris.
No, but I used to know all those things.
No, but you're a nut, and I happen to need a nut.
No, I don't.
No, I mean he sort of presides over it,
No, not if he's a nice guy.
No, sir, not yet.
No, that's not the way we're gonna do it.
No, you see, my father and I have installed this cold line.
No.
No. I mean for Phil. It's going to be hardest on him.
No. I mean, really hold me... next to me.
No. I'll be involved.
Nonsense. You're staying for dinner, and that's an order.
Normal.
Normal. OK, I'll be as normal as hell.
Not till you carry me over the goddamn threshold.
Not until I've met numbers one and two.
Not until you get his parents' tip.
Nothing sexual, preppie.
Now, don't talk like that, Oliver.
Now, I'm a Harvard magna, and I've already been accepted.
Now, that's a very mature attitude.
Now, upstairs, you preppie.
Now, we're both going to work all summer,
Obviously, one of us is malfunctioning.
Of overachievement in the Barrett family.
Of the faculty of the Shady Lane School.
Off Cavalleri?
Off day? You've been having an off day for two weeks now.
Oh, come on, you don't believe in that sort of nonsense, do you?
Oh, damn it. I don't know what's wrong with this engine.
Oh, I love you, too, Phil.
Oh, I may just chase ambulances instead.
Oh, I think I understand quite a bit more than you wish I did.
Oh, it's nothing.
Oh, Mr. Barrett. Good evening, sir.
Oh, well, that's fine.
Oh, yeah?
Oh, yeah. The All Ivy title.
Oh, yes, yes. Congratulations.
Oh, you've been reading the sports page, huh?
Oh... Well, we've got to take care of those.
OK, Barrett. Who is she? What's her name?
OK, I'll be a young and beautiful divorcée.
OK, we'll put it your way.
OK, what's the number?
OK.
OK.
OK.
Old man Jonas wanted me to go to Chicago on a big case.
Oliver has always done well in school.
Oliver, I think it's about time.
Oliver, I want to help.
Oliver, if you marry her now, I'll not give you the time of day.
Oliver, please talk to him. Just say hello.
Oliver, the problem's more serious than that.
Oliver, the Shady Lane School is only paying me three thou a year.
Oliver, think. Sixty years old. Nothing says he's still gonna be around
Oliver?
Oliver.
Ollie?
Only after a while, you wish you'd hit the ground, you know?
Only if he's a boy.
Or Bach...
Or you?
Otherwise, I know you'll be OK.
Paris?
Pastries! And don't make fun of my father.
Paul, don't bullshit me. You were showing off.
Paul, would you pay more attention to blending
Pay attention, will you?
Penalty, Barrett of Harvard, five minutes for fighting.
Perhaps... at midyear...
Philip.
Please lend me the money.
Please sit down and make yourself at home.
Please watch your profanity, preppie.
Please.
Probably hard to get.
Probably want a steak, son.
Radcliffe girl constitutes rebellion.
Ray Stratton, your best friend. Your roommate before me.
Read it, will you please? It's great news.
Really, I'm like a millionaire.
Really?
Recoil away...
Score tied, 3 3.
Screw Paris and music and all that stuff you thought you stole from me.
Screw Paris.
See, I think you're scared.
See, I'm going to be mixing it up with Francis Lapierre.
See, you dish it out, but you can't take it.
Shall we stick by each other as long as we live?
She doesn't want antimetabolites at all.
She may have told you that.
She wants the troops home for Christmas.
She'll have to be told soon.
She's dying.
She's getting white cells and platelets, which, at the moment,
She's not many things.
She's only 24.
Should enter into a... family quarrel?
Silent, drawing nigh and nigher,
Sleeping.
Snug as a bug in a rug.
So his not so great grandson would be able to get in.
So nice to meet you. How are you, son?
So now I'm being kept by a woman.
So we just have to keep trying, right?
So your people come from Cranston, Jenny.
So, that's two out of three.
So, what's she going to do?
Some music type from Rhode Island somewhere.
Someday we're going to look back on these days.
Someday when you're being bugged by Oliver V...
Someday, you're gonna have to come up with the courage to admit you care.
Sorry. Sorry.
Start it over again.
Tell me, Oliver, have you heard from law school?
Tell me, Oliver, have you heard from the law school?
Thank God for that.
Thank you, father, but the doctor took care of it.
Thank you, father.
Thank you, Florence.
Thank you. You've been very generous with your time.
That guilty look on your face... It's sick.
That I've never seen in my whole goddamn life?
That in his own special way, he loves you very much.
That Jenny hasn't had to work.
That proves it.
That she loved Mozart and Bach?
That she was beautiful and brilliant? [Download Movie on www.Mkvking.com]
That was really, incredibly, absolutely...
That we should not long be here contented?
That we're gonna graduate and go our separate ways,
That you'll go through your whole life thinking you hate each other.
That's a good reason.
That's a living, but it's not tuition. Your tuition is pretty steep.
That's a treatment that slows cell destruction,
That's better.
That's his name. What do you call your father?
That's impossible.
That's impossible.
That's more than they give me.
That's poetry.
That's really the best thing.
That's the only thing I'm going to ask you.
That's very nice, sir.
That's what it's about, preppie.
That's... that's wonderful.
That's... Well, that's rather curious, considering your background.
The Barretts have mills in Fall River.
The Beatles?
The best. You put down anything in pants.
The case is closed!
The family of Mark Howells...
The feeling's mutual, or haven't you noticed?
The great Barrett Hall. Don't you at least salute when you pass it?
The hospital.
The Jennifer Barrett Maternity award.
The law school needs good men like you.
The old hockey fake out.
The point doesn't concern the young lady. It concerns you.
The saloons closed early.
The sooner, the better.
Then don't leave me, Jenny!
Then get the hell out of here. I don't want you at my goddamn deathbed.
Then why is he a son of a bitch?
There was another world better than this one.
There's no question about the diagnosis.
There's not going to be a reconciliation.
There's still the matter of the RSVP.
There's the threshold. Carry me over it.
They do to the houses of Mr. Jonas and Mr. Marsh.
They haven't started yet.
Think. In mounting higher, the angels would press on us
Thirty five hundred for the year.
This is a crucial precedent.
This is the first week in our entire marriage
This is too much for me.
This is... very unfortunate, Mr. Barrett.
To be my wedded wife from this day forward...
To get into law school. I just happen to be one of them.
To love and to cherish, till death do us part.
Two 24 year olds can't seem to make a baby.
Two minutes, number seven. Holding.
Ugliest building on campus. Do you know I've never even been inside?
Unless maybe... if you marry Jennifer Cavalleri?
Until the lengthening wings break into fire at either curved point...
Up yours.
Wash, and you can touch me afterwards.
We can withhold treatment for a little while, but not for long.
We do.
We have finally crossed the poverty line.
We have had a... a misunderstanding.
We just passed my junior high school!
We neither one of us believe...
We'll be there Christmas Day.
We'll have to be going soon.
We'll have to begin therapy sometime during the next few weeks.
We're terribly sorry, but no, we can't.
We're together now, aren't we? We're happy.
We're... looking forward to having you with us next year.
We've repeated her blood test three times.
Well, Barrett, what brings you to church?
Well, God would bless this union in any church.
Well, I hope you laid it on thick this time.
Well, I see our name by the bell.
Well, I want her to study at Julliard, and she wants to have a baby,
Well, I... I didn't necessarily mean the Catholic Church.
Well, I'm a girl...
Well, it was a good apartment for 80 bucks.
Well, it's a mistake. It has to be.
Well, mostly. Actually, my mother came from Fall River.
Well, say something, will you, please?
Well, that you've got, baby.
Well, that's exactly what the philosopher, Saint Simon advocated.
Well, the whole mass rigmarole, but you're...
Well, we're kind of negative on it.
Well, we're sort of negative about that, too.
Well, yeah, for a second, I clutched.
Well?
Well...
Were Abigail Adams or Wendy Wasp?
What a thing to say to your husband.
What are you doing New Year's Eve?
What are you talking about?
What are you talking about? Lapierre started the fight!
What can you say about a 25 year old girl who died?
What did you expect him to say? "How's your sex life?"
What do I do? What can I do for Jenny?
What do you mean, why? Can't I take my goddamn wife out to dinner if I want to?
What do you want to talk, funerals?
What does she play with Barrett?
What does that have to do with going our separate ways?
What does that mean?
What gave you that impression?
What I hate is that he expects no less, and when I do come through,
What irks you most, Father? That she's Catholic or that she's poor?
What is it your people are in, Jennifer?
What is?
What makes you so sure I went to prep school?
What makes you think I don't mean it?
What number is the A major concerto?
What the hell is it?
What would you say if I told you...
What you wouldn't like to be cut off.
What?
What?
What?
What? Come on!
What's worse than the straits of destitution?
What's wrong with doing the right things?
When our two souls stand up erect and strong,
When you're finally ready for a reconciliation.
Where do you want to go?
Where is your sense of humor?
Where the unfit, contrarious moods of men
Where they exploited the New England poor for generations.
While I take the courses necessary to teach in public school?
Who said anything about marriage?
Who said I'm not gonna keep at it, for God's sake?
Who?
Why are you sitting here when all your friends are out there playing?
Why are you so heavy?
Why are you so uncomfortable with your parents?
Why did you bulldoze me into buying you coffee?
Why did you want to leave the minute we got there?
Why didn't you tell me? I made a couple of calls,
Why don't you just go back to your music wonks, and good luck.
Why should I be penalized because I was once related to a rich man?
Why the hell should I want to go to a lousy hockey game?
Why, because I won't allow a parent to reject a child?
Why?
Why? I'm not a lawyer.
Why'd you leave the Church?
Will you come travel with me?
Will you give me yourself?
Will you stop referring to his father as a windmill?
Wise up, would you please, Barrett? I was not great. I was not even All Ivy.
With darkness and the death hour rounding it.
With Ms. Anne Miller Whitman.
Working for Jonas and Marsh, pulling in the coin.
Would you answer mine first?
Would you answer my question, please?
Would you ever total me?
Would you please do something for me, Ollie?
Would you please hold me?
Would you please not use profanity in this house, Jennifer?
Would you please say something?
Would you please, would you please...
Would you stop blaming yourself, you goddamn stupid preppie?
Wow, I see half the buildings of Harvard hanging on that wall.
Yeah, but I wanted you to study. Did you have anything to eat?
Yeah, but what about my scholarship, and what about Paris,
Yeah, but who?
Yeah, but why is it that I suddenly wish my name
Yeah, but you weren't a lawyer, so it wasn't legal.
Yeah, I know the one. Real tight ass.
Yeah, I will right now if you don't shut up.
Yeah, I've noticed you hate making dean's list and being All Ivy.
Yeah, now our garage will cost that much.
Yeah, plays piano for The Bach society.
Yeah, that tells me how much you know about music.
Yeah? Yeah?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. "Stay loose."
Yeah. "What a falling off was there."
Yeah. I love you, too.
Yeah. I've never been to Europe. I can hardly wait.
Yeah. No relation.
Yeah. We're supposed to play, but I think I'll cancel it.
Yeah. Yeah. That's it.
Yeah. You're hung up on me, aren't you?
Yes, but in a crazy sort of way, I think you also love
Yes, fine. How's Raymond?
Yes, I come from a long line of wood and stone.
Yes, I did... When I met you.
Yes, we did. That's why I'm calling.
Yes.
Yes. I mean... one of the college chaplains just sort of...
Yes. Yeah, yeah.
Yet... we have many entering students in far worse straits than you.
You always supported me. I mean, after all, what's money?
You are the supreme Radcliffe smart ass.
You call your father Phil?
You can give all our money back as reparations.
You don't understand.
You fellows do everything you can to make sure it doesn't hurt. Everything.
You got some girl in trouble?
You have your own library, preppie.
You know that newscaster that got beat up by the cops?
You know, I swear he'll be breaking and entering before he's ten.
You know, I wouldn't mind watching you play hockey with Cornell this weekend.
You know, Oliver, the dean of the law school is an old classmate...
You know, we're almost at the top floor?
You know, when I was in school, he used to send me memos. Memos!
You look stupid and rich.
You mean the bride speaks, too?
You mean, do it yourself?
You must be screwing somebody.
You put up a big, glass wall to keep from getting hurt,
You really like to bug your father, don't you?
You saw Dr. Shapeley?
You want to marry me?
You want to talk music?
You would actually call our soon to be conceived offspring "Bozo?"
You, after all, You're going to be the merry widower.
You... you know that Jennifer is Catholic.
You'll be merry, OK?
You'll be the first Barrett on the Supreme Court.
You'll of course want to speak to a hematologist.
You're a preppie millionaire, and I'm a social zero.
You're going back to Cranston, Rhode Island, to bake cookies?
You're going to flunk out if you just sit there watching me study.
You're gonna kill us before your parents can murder us.
You're known for quantity.
You're out of the game, Barrett! Come on!
You're presenting us with a fait accompli, are you not?
You're under the mistaken impression that I wanted to make love to you.
You've been checking up on me, haven't you?
You've got it made, you bastard.
You've got to go back where you belong.
Your father loves you, too, Oliver, just the way you're gonna love Bozo,
Your father's 60th birthday.
Your parents are in the drawing room.
Your rebellion.
Your time will come.
338 3434, and dial one first.
About anybody's god? See...
About the God bit. Yeah?
Always running the show. She may succeed.
Am I just anybody? What do you think, preppie?
And do you know why? Why?
And how is Jennifer? She's fine, sir.
And we won't be hypocrites. Well...
And you are rebelling, Oliver. I fail...
Are you? Scared you, didn't I?
as soon as I get back to my room. Bastard.
Back at Radcliffe. It's going to be OK, Jenny.
Barrett like the hall? Yes.
Because I'm asking you to. You're commanding me!
Because I'm playing. For which side?
Big deal. You bet it was.
But I wasn't! Yes, you were.
But what did you think? I think she's absolutely charming,
but when the holiday's over... This has been more than a holiday.
Bye, Jenny. Bye, Jenny.
Cavalleri. As in Cavalleria Rusticana?
Come on, Arthur, let's go! Are you a dirty player?
Come on, Dan. Come on. Hey, Jennifer, Come here!
Come on, I'm trying to concentrate. On what?
Come on, Jenny! Oh, come on.
Define "bit." Finish law school.
Did I say you could? What?
Did you check the mail? Just one second, Jenny.
Did you check the mail? No, I didn't. Anything vital?
Did you hear from law school? Yes. I called you, remember?
Did you hear me? Yes.
Do what? I don't want Paris.
Do you get me? You're tilting at windmills, Phil!
Do you know whose fault it is? I wouldn't use the word fault, Oliver.
Does your face hurt? No, sir.
Doesn't Jennifer teach? Let's leave her out of this.
Don't be scared. Aren't you?
Eleventh? "Do not bullshit thy father."
Enough? Not for me.
Even the son of a bitch? Of course. Absolutely.
First or last? First.
Five hundred big ones. Holy sh...
For what? For our kid, damn it.
For what? You know very well what.
Friends... How would I know?
Get in there! Oh, come on!
Get the hell in here, preppie. Mrs. Barrett, guess what?
Give my best to mother. Yes, I will.
He was a Rhodes Scholar. I think I notice a little problem
He won't be Oliver V! He can be Bozo the Clown,
He won't resent me! Why not?
He's not a priest. He is to me.
Hello, animals. Hey, Ollie.
Here you are, this big Harvard jock. So was he.
Hey, could we afford a taxi? Sure.
Hey, I need a lawyer. I'm a lawyer.
Hey, is there a Barrett in the house? Hey, where are the kids?
Hey, Jenny, you won't laugh. What?
Hey, Mrs. Barrett. I'm in the kitchen, where I belong.
Hey, what's the matter, Ollie? Off day, that's all.
How are they treating you? Fine, except for the Rittenhouse brat.
How are you, son? Oh, I'm OK. OK, sir.
How come? Barrett.
How have you been, Oliver? Fine, sir.
I could give Price Zimmerman a ring... No!
I don't blame him. Next time he does,
I don't have any money in the bank. You have a millionaire father.
I major in Social Studies. It doesn't show.
I need you. I need you, too.
I never see his face. Why? Does he wear a mask?
I see, newlyweds, huh? Eternally.
I tell you, it's a great bargain. Oliver, four rooms for $82.50 a month
I think if you don't say yes, I'll... Yes! Yes!
I tried too hard. Is that a big disgrace?
I turned him down. Why?
I waited for you. But you're a growing boy.
I will never talk to him. Please, can't you just do it for me?
I will. Hey, I had another salary hassle today
I won't be merry. Yes, you will be.
I'm going to wallop him. Jesus, no!
I'm in the penalty box. What?
I'm not his son anymore. I beg your pardon?
I'm sorry... Love...
If it weren't for you! Yes!
In a way. Come on, he must be proud as hell.
In the 19th century. When you inherit, Oliver,
is Mrs. Barrett. Well, couldn't you be Ms. Cavalleri?
Is that what you think? Yes, I think it's part of it.
It could take weeks and months. Screw the cost.
It's a new world, Philip. Oh, yeah, yeah.
It's a rare thing. Especially in my family.
It's getting late. For what?
It's not necessary, sir. Jack's a specialist, you know.
Jennifer Cavalleri. You have a call on two.
Jenny! Yeah?
Jenny... Yeah?
Just tell me what you see. I see you.
Kiss me. I was carried away.
Let's get the hell out of here. Hey, don't touch me, Oliver.
Like what? I mean, like, this rich.
More than the All Ivy title? Hell of a lot more.
Mr. Cavalleri... Phil.
Mr. Cavalleri... Phil. My name is Phil.
my negative social status. No!
Negative. He's reaching out to you.
Never. Oh, that's casual.
No, I want to be alone with you. OK.
No, I... Don't bullshit me.
No, sir. There really isn't any doubt.
No. There you are.
None of your business. I'm your roommate!
Not a change of heart, I hope. No, I'm still set on law school,
Not anymore. Yes, you are, in mind.
Not quite. What do you mean?
Nouveau riche people. That's us.
Now you got to stop being sick. Me?
Now, is this the official threshold? What do you think?
Of Cranston, Rhode Island. How interesting.
Oh, how can you do it? What?
Oh, yeah? What now? He tried to pinch me.
Oh? What's the name of his firm? Phil's Bake Shop.
Oh. Did he win? No.
OK, then, for the Yalie doctor. OK.
OK? This is not a threshold.
OK. No, it's not OK!
OK. OK, you look terrible. No, I do not look terrible.
Oliver what? Barrett.
on this sacred occasion. Amen.
On your feet. How much?
Our huge and bruising All Ivy tackle. Bozo Barrett?
Phil. Phil, sir... I reject him, too.
Phil... Yeah.
Play, damn it. I can't help it.
Please, Oliver, just for me. No.
Quiet! Come on, come on.
Really? That's why I'm here.
Renaissance Polyphony. What's polyphony?
Reno, Nevada. Paris, France.
Right. No problem. Hey, do I call my father on the phone?
Right. No relation. Hello, Mom.
RSVP. You even have to ask?
See you. Bye, Jenny.
She's in the downstairs phone booth. Where is that?
Simpson. Yeah?
Sir? May I know the reason?
So far, so good. That's not saying much.
So now I've seen a hockey game. What'd you like best?
So, is he for it? Does he approve? What do you think?
So? So I want you to come.
So? So we're making babies.
Son of a bitch. To his face?
Sorry, Jenny. OK, one last time,
Sure. I'll even pay. Very gracious of you.
Take care, you two! Drive with caution, Oliver.
That fast? Yes.
That's a little trite. It's the goddamn truth.
That's good. That's bad.
That's ridiculous! How would you like to support me
That's ridiculous. You know all he said after the game?
That's what he told you, too, right? Yeah.
The hell you will. Why not?
The name's Barrett, Barrett. Sometimes you are really a bitch.
The old hockey fake out. I know, that's you all right,
The penalty box. What did you do wrong?
There's no poetry in OK. Screw poetry, Oliver.
They are both close enough to walk. Jenny, rich people ride.
They haven't got a hockey team. You have other qualities, Oliver.
Third. Only third, huh?
to get all the way to Radcliffe is... Get to the point.
To which, she retorted? "Ho, Ho, Ho."
Tomorrow at 8:30 sharp, OK? I'll see you tomorrow at 8:30.
Very casual, huh? Yeah, right.
Very funny. Are you jealous?
Wait. Phil. What?
Was I? But I'm not interested.
We are cordially invited... To pay the light bill.
We live on the 10th floor! You can carry me in the elevator.
Welcome to the world, preppie. Listen, Cavalleri...
Well, good bye. Good bye, sir.
Well, I could name two. Thanks.
Well, I wouldn't ask you. Well, that's what makes you stupid.
Well? Well what?
What are you doing? Sleeping.
What attracts you most? I'm leaving.
What did you say on the phone? Just that I'd drop in to visit.
What'd you get tonight, Ollie? An assist on the last goal.
When you were on your ass. Thanks for coming.
Who said that? I don't know... Shakespeare.
Who? Dr. Addison.
Who? Jenny.
Who's Phil? My father.
Who's the guest of honor? Cavalleri.
Who's this? Hey, hey, Barrett got a new goody?
Whose side are you on, Jenny? I didn't know it was a war.
Why do you wear it? It was my mother's.
Why should you have all the luck? Hey, man, it was a long, hard drag.
Why? Because my goddamn name
Why? Then again, I might call you
Why'd you leave? What?
Will it be painful? Hopefully not.
Yeah, but it's home. Yeah.
Yeah, Jenny Cavalleri. Who?
Yeah. Why?
Yeah. Let's try now. Right this very minute?
Yes, sir. And doesn't she teach?
Yes. No. I've got to get back.
You can be sure of that. I don't care what it costs.
You chicken shit! You Montreal faggots!
You do. What the hell is he gonna think?
You got fired. I got fired up, and guess where to.
You haven't mentioned Jennifer. What's there to say?
You look lovely, Jenny. Bullshit.
You mean legal? Legal. Is that it? Is it?
You meeting Stratton today? Who?
You two ready? Amen.
You were first in the class? Not quite.
You won't like it. I already do.
You're a Harvard magna. Not in mechanics.
You're a known quantity, Barrett. Meaning?
You're Barrett Hall. No, I'm not Barrett Hall.
You're driving like a maniac. This is Boston.
Your hand is cold. So is yours.
...not bad. Oh, Jenny, come on!
...and isolate pure spirits,
...for as long as possible.
...I think I'm in love with you?
...just wonderful.
...to a dinner.
...to love and to cherish, till death do us part.
...what bitter wrong can the earth do to us
"What is it your parents are in, Jennifer?"
"You know, Oliver, the dean of the law school was a classmate of mine."
