> [@terentii](#): > > _ **Young Frankenstein** _? Not what I was thinking. In _Frankenstein_ (and from what I recall, _Young Frankenstein_ too), it sounds more like “it’s alive”. The movie I’m thinking of very clearly does not use the contraction. ---

From same flick: “Like I said…We only have fif-_teen_ minutes?” Different flick: "I don’t know if you’d be particularly interested in hearing anything about me. My life, I mean…Most of it doesn’t add up to much…that I could relate as a way of life that you’d approve of…(He pauses briefly, then): I’d like to be able to tell you why, but I don’t really…I mean, I move around a lot because things tend to get bad when I stay. And I’m looking…for auspicious beginnings, I guess…(He breaks off again, resuming with evident difficulty) I’m trying to, you know, imagine your half of this conversation…My feeling is, that if you could talk, we probably wouldn’t be talking. That’s pretty much how it got to be before I left…(another pause) Are you all right? (He searches his father’s face, entreating him for some kind of answer, some sign of response, and seeing none)…I don’t know what to say…(he breaks down, barely able to utter the following): Tita suggested that we try to…I don’t know. I think that she…seems to feel we’ve got…some understanding to reach…She totally denies the fact that we were never that comfortable with each other to begin with…(pauses, trying to gain control). The best I can do, is apologize. (He looks silently at his father for a moment)…We both know I was never really that good at it, anyway…(Then, bowing bis head): I’m sorry it didn’t work out. ---
