A scene near the end of the 1936 film "Dodsworth." After being betrayed, mistreated, and abandoned while on a retirement trip to Europe, Sam Dodsworth has left the woman he's happy with in Italy to give his ex-wife Fran a second chance. They board a boat headed back to America.

Sam please don't miss your last chance at happiness. Edith is the woman for you. The hell with Fran and her childish ways. The camera angles used by William Wyler was the best. That finally line that "love has to stop short of suicide" is right up there with "frankly my dear I don't give a damn"
-
ah, you cut it off before the end!
-
"Love has got to stop someplace short of suicide". I'd like to shake the hand of the person who wrote that.

In the novel, Dodsworth returns to the USA with Fran. Then, three days later, he sails back to Mrs. Cortright in Europe.

I love this movie. Ruth Chatterton was excellent in it.
-
This has to be my all time favorite -- and the dialogue! They don't make or write movies like this anymore.

Geldric u have taste and class. I own the DVD. Wyler was the best American director who ever lived. Maybe the best in the world. Thank you for posting.

This film is deserving of all the superlatives given to it on this site. Script has not one wasted line, and it's packed with film greats who perform flawlessly. Just another triumph in a long line of successes by Samuel Goldwyn. Why waste precious little time we have on this earth watching today's crap. Start here and you're instantly a film buff.

just finished watching this 'excellent' mid-life' crisis movie! Wow - this ending is superb - Mrs D. trying to flirt her way back into her marriage - Mr D already had his mind made up - what an 'escapade' (spoken with a flirty french accent ! They don't make subtle, restrained, movies like this anymore - what a shame!

I always thought he had fully intended on making another attempt at it with Mrs. Dodsworth, and that her unwarranted and immature ranting on the boat was the immediate and shocking reminder of just how little she had changed, and how little patience he now has for unhappiness. But yeah, great ending.
