Somewhere in Time Movie Quotes
Elise McKenna
The man of my dreams has almost faded now. The one I have created in my mind. The sort of man each woman dreams of, in the deepest and most secret reaches of her heart. I can almost see him now before me. What would I say to him if he were really here? "Forgive me. I have never known this feeling. I have lived without it all my life. Is it any wonder, then, I failed to recognise you? You, who brought it to me for the first time. Is there any way that I can tell you how my life has changed? Any way at all to let you know what sweetness you have given me? There is so much to say. I cannot find the words. Except for these: I love you". Such would I say to him if he were really here.

This is not for a play, Miss Roberts. This is something very personal.
[shows her the pocketwatch]
Laura Roberts
Where did you get that?
Richard Collier
Well, she gave it to me, ma'am. At the opening of a play I wrote eight years ago at Millfield College.
Laura Roberts
That watch was very precious to her. She never- never left it out of her possession. It disappeared the night she died.
Richard Collier
She died that night?

Operator? Get Dr. Paul up to suite 313 right away.
Doctor
Looks like he hasn't eaten in a week. You better send for an ambulance.

Oh...
Hotel Manager

Richard Collier
I got some news. There was an agent in the house tonight, and he said he thinks this play might be good enough for Broadway.

Arthur, you know in the Hall of History, there's a photograph, a young woman. There's no nameplate.
Arthur Biehl
Yes, that's Elise McKenna. She was a famous actress in her day. Starred in a play in the hotel theater.
Richard Collier
I-I'm sorry. Did you say there was a theater here?
Arthur Biehl
Yes. Down by the lake.
Richard Collier
Really? When was this play done?
Arthur Biehl
1912.

Elise McKenna
The first thing I intend to do for you...
Richard Collier
You've already done.
Elise McKenna
The second thing, then...
Richard Collier
What?
Elise McKenna
Buy you a new suit?
Richard Collier
I don't understand. Nobody seems to like my suit!
Elise McKenna
Well, can you blame them?
Richard Collier
Now wait a minute. I think my suit's terrific! I mean, what's wrong with this? I don't care - so what if it's ten years old?
Elise McKenna
Oh, at least fifteen!
Richard Collier
Fifteen?
Elise McKenna
Mhm.
Richard Collier
Well, I think it's fabulous. Look, let me show you - it's really great. See, it's in first-class condition. The sleeves fit, which is pretty good for me because my arms are about nine feet long. And, I've got pockets everywhere - I could pull rabbits out of here. Oh, yeah, this is the best part - this is a special coin compartment for emergen...
[Richard pulls a 1979 penny out of his pocket; seeing the modern coin breaks Richard's hypnotic suggestion, and he begins to fade out of 1912]
Elise McKenna
[initially concerned, becoming hysterical] Richard? Richard? Richard!
[Elise rapidly fades from Richard's view]
Elise McKenna
Richard! Richard! *Richard!* *Richard!*
