A scene from The Lady from Shanghai 1947
Elsa

Why don't you try and understand? George was supposed to take care of Arthur, but he lost his silly head and shot Broome. After that, I knew I couldn't trust him. He was mad. He had to be shot.

Michael

And what about me?

Elsa

We could have gone off together.

Michael

Into the sunrise? You and me, or you and Grisby?

Elsa

I love you.

Michael

One who follows his nature keeps his original nature in the end. But haven't you heard ever of something better to follow?

Elsa

No.
