Hello everyone,

In the movie Mission to Venice there is a scene where Michael and his friend Giuseppe are in the motorboat. Michael asks Giuseppe about a light.

Michael: Say this thing doesn’t give/get very much light, does it?
Giuseppe: Ah, yes, but for lovers it’s more romantic.

Does Michael say doesn’t give or doesn’t get? Logically, it should be “give” I think.
And what does Giuseppe say after for? Lovers?

The scene in question begins at 25:37…

Thank you.

It’s hard to understand the first one clearly, but ‘give’ is the only one that makes sense.

The second one is more clear. He says ‘lovers’.
