Lines about Victor's faithfulness?
I've watched this movie many times but actually only noticed on this latest viewing two points where they bring up whether or not Victor has always been faithful to Hilary.
1. When he and Hattie are talking about 'what's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander' and he denies it and says something about men not wearing wedding rings. And I do believe around this conversation he does say that he has been faithful to Hilary all these years
2. And then later, when he and Hilary are talking in the bedroom after he's been shot and he says how a wife who strays should be beloved, unless she's a cronic cheater (I'm paraphasing here) she makes some comment that sounds like she's accusing him of not always walking the straight and narrow in the issue of fidelity and then goes on to joke about him maybe being the cronic cheater, which he denies but I don't recall if her first point was ever mentioned again, or he denied that as well. If he had always been faithful it seems a strange thing for her to say under the circumstances.
I was kind of curious about these two parts. Are we supposed to gather from this that maybe Victor has not always been completely faithful to Hilary? I find that a bit hard to believe. So is it saying something else, was the movie somehow trying to imply it doesn't matter whether he was or not because that the same rules to not apply to men and women, or it doesn't matter when dealing with her unfaithfulness, because just because he might have strayed does not mean it's alright for to do it, and vice versa. What is the point of these two sections? I find them a very odd addition and would be interested in other people's thoughts on it.
