The Lost Weekend1945

Don:
I'm a writer. I just started a novel. As a matter of fact, I've started several but I never seem to finish one.

Helen:
Well, in that case, why don't you write short stories?

Don:
Oh, I have some of those - first paragraphs. And there's one half of the opening scene of a play which takes place in the leaning tower of Pisa that attempts to explain why it leans and why all sensible buildings should lean.

Helen:
They'll love that in Toledo.
