HELEN: Promise me something?...Promise me?
CHARLES: Hm
HELEN: Don’t ever let the celebration end.
CHARLES: There’ll be another celebration when the rest of the war is over.
HELEN: But it is over, for us it’s over. I’m sick to death of death. I want to enjoy things and have fun, and live like everyday is the last day. Wouldn’t that be nice? A lifetime full of last days? Except that there never really would be a last day...You’re too serious. Make that nice smile. That’s better.
