00:02:35Um...
00:02:36The train station, I think?
00:02:38The exchange booth?
00:02:42Oh, Jamie, I'm sorry.
00:02:47That bastard at the train station started when you dropped all your stuff.
00:02:53This is 170, not 70.
00:02:56Where do we need to go?
00:02:57We need to...

00:03:57No, she'll definitely need another card sent out immediately.
00:03:58We're here for two weeks.
00:03:59No, I'm working here.
00:04:05Yes, I'll hold.
00:04:07You love how they ask, as if I have a choice.
00:04:10Do you know what I'm going to try to do?
00:04:11Whatever I am saying?
00:04:12Yeah.
00:04:13A O U C C C L C C L A P E C?
00:04:14No, we're all out-to-the-book Joe.
00:04:15Can I keep the compliments down the admissions card?
00:04:16No.
00:04:17We need another card sent out immediately.
00:04:18Mr. Albert Eccl!
00:04:19And that's what it might be.
00:04:20No.
00:04:21Sorry, Charlie.
00:04:22Sir, I had to find something?
00:04:23No, I.
00:04:24No.
00:04:25I was not in there.
00:04:26No.
00:04:27Do you know what I'm going to try to do while I'm here?
00:04:30Besides, I know an Italian.
00:04:32I don't know why you think that's so ridiculous.
00:04:35I don't at all.
00:04:36I admire you.
00:04:37I just think it's too late for me.
00:04:40That's not true.
00:04:41You can't teach an old dog new tricks.
00:04:45And besides, what's the point?
00:04:47The whole bloody world speaks English.
00:04:49Well, I...
00:04:50I'm going to finally transcribe the tapes.
00:04:55Yes.
00:04:57All right.
00:04:59Okay.
00:05:02Well, if you can see it through to the end, I think that's wonderful.
00:05:07What does that mean?
00:05:09Nothing.
00:05:11Nothing?
00:05:13I think it's a fantastic idea, Jen.
00:05:15I always have.
00:05:16You know that?
00:05:21You shouldn't sound very supportive.
00:05:22You have my support.
00:05:27I'm sorry if that came out wrong.
00:05:31I just know how emotional listening to them can be.
00:05:34Has been for you.
00:05:36I think enough time has passed.
00:05:38Well, that's great.
00:05:39Why do you think he killed himself?
00:06:04I don't know.
00:06:06I don't know.
00:06:07You can't get a sense by his writing?
00:06:09You have to read it when I'm done, don't I?
00:06:21Do you think he recognized a blank infinity just stretching out?
00:06:34He got to this point, maybe, where it was just day after day after day.
00:06:38I really don't know, Jen.
00:06:40Just so tedious.
00:06:44And of course, he felt guilty.
00:06:46Most people think life is too short, and there he was, all the talent in the world, and it wasn't that...
00:06:50Jane, can I...
00:06:50Can we not talk about this?
00:06:53Just...
00:06:54Just a bit more, then.
00:06:56Just a bit more, then.
00:07:13Love you.
00:07:15Love you, too.
00:07:26Love you.
00:07:27Love you.
00:07:34Do you feel all right?
00:07:36Do you feel OK?
00:07:37Yeah.
00:07:41You sure?
00:07:46Mhm.
00:08:56Are you sure you won't come with?
00:09:18You'll be so busy.
00:09:19I think you're boring all alone.
00:09:24I think someone should be here in case the card is delivered.
00:09:28True.
00:09:33Then I think I might go out, see what the world has to offer.
00:09:35If you do, leave me a message, okay?
00:09:42So I can worry about you.
00:09:44Okay.
00:09:49I've left you some money here.
00:09:54I'll see you later.
00:09:55Have a good day.

00:11:41We were riding our bikes to school when the Germans started firing at us.
00:12:01We jumped into a hedge.
00:12:04We were terrified, but afterwards we couldn't stop laughing.
00:12:08It feels nice if I'm the only one who remembers that.
00:12:13It's as vivid to me as if it happened yesterday.
00:12:18Oh, hi, Leonard. It's Jane.
00:12:21I decided to take an impromptu trip to Iskia, or, um, Iskia, as they pronounce it.
00:12:28See, I'm learning a little bit.
00:12:30Um, anyway, I'll be home later.
00:12:33I hope you have a good day. Bye.
00:12:35Hey, those friends are all dead now.
00:12:39There's no one left.
00:12:41That's one of my regrets, you know.
00:12:44Sometimes I think I should have had more children, not just your father.
00:12:50You're all alone now that your parents are gone.
00:12:54No brothers, no sisters.
00:12:59I'm upsetting you.
00:13:01Let's talk about something else.
00:13:03No one to ask me more boring questions about the war.
00:13:08All right, then.
00:13:10Uh, scusi.
00:13:12Scusi.
00:13:13Um, the castle?
00:13:15Castle?
00:13:16Parlato inglese?
00:13:18No, no, no.
00:13:19No?
00:13:19No.
00:13:20Um, castello oregonese?
00:13:23Ah, andare.
00:13:25Andare?
00:13:26Andare?
00:13:26Si.
00:13:26Ah, grazie.
00:13:27They'd been shot through the neck.
00:13:32The bullet went in one side and came out the other.
00:13:36And there were all these bomb holes filled with water, and he couldn't tell which was the German side and which was the Allied side.
00:13:43When he came home after something like that, you couldn't really complain to him about anything, now could you?
00:13:50I'm actually going there now, to the castle.
00:13:53You speak English now?
00:13:54Yeah.
00:13:55Why, do you think I was Italian?
00:13:56Yeah.
00:13:57Yes!
00:13:57That's great.
00:13:58That's cool.
00:13:59Hey, hey, hey.
00:14:01Where are you from?
00:14:03London.
00:14:04No, in America.
00:14:05Come on.
00:14:05Maine.
00:14:06No, shit.
00:14:07I'm from Massachusetts.
00:14:08That's crazy.
00:14:09That's weird.
00:14:10Right?
00:14:11Yeah.
00:14:12Vacation?
00:14:13Oh.
00:14:13Are you?
00:14:14What?
00:14:15Are you here on vacation?
00:14:16Oh.
00:14:20Sorry.
00:14:20I thought you were saying you were on vacation.
00:14:22Me?
00:14:23No.
00:14:25So, come on.
00:14:27My husband is working in Naples.
00:14:30What does he do?
00:14:32He is playing in a concert at the end of the night.
00:14:35Cool.
00:14:36What does he play?
00:14:37Viola.
00:14:39Mm-mm-mm.
00:14:40The viola.
00:14:42Any good?
00:14:43Yes, very.
00:14:49How do you keep your violin from getting stolen?
00:14:53You put it in a viola case, right?
00:14:58That's not funny.
00:14:59What's the difference between a viola and a coffin?
00:15:02A coffin has a dead person on the inside.
00:15:05Because viola players are dead?
00:15:07No?
00:15:07Why is a viola solo like premature ejaculation?
00:15:10Because even though you know it's coming, there's nothing you can do about it.
00:15:18I can't help it.
00:15:19I've got this weird autistic mind for jokes, and I went to this music-slash-nerd summer camp
00:15:23when I was, like, ten, and I played the triangle.
00:15:25Right.
00:15:26And I'm an only child, so, you know, understand.
00:15:28You look too young to be married.
00:15:33You newlywed?
00:15:34No.
00:15:36No.
00:15:46Stop making me feel like a stalker.
00:15:48Oh, fuck.
00:15:49Want to give me ten, please?
00:15:50Yes.
00:15:50Yes.
00:15:51Yes.
00:15:51Yes.
00:15:58One?
00:15:58One.
00:15:59Five.
00:15:59All right.
00:16:02Oh, hey, have you got 50 cents?
00:16:06If you can catch it.
00:16:33What brought you out of here today?
00:16:35Fairy.
00:16:36Ha!
00:16:37Fairy.
00:16:38I like it.
00:16:40They have this device down in the basement.
00:16:42It's like a torture cage.
00:16:43They lock you in there until you turn to bones.
00:16:47But can you imagine dying by just sitting there?
00:16:50That would suck.
00:16:57In, like, the 1300s, thousands of families lived in this castle.
00:17:01It doesn't smell pretty bad.
00:17:03All those people crammed onto this rock.
00:17:09Wow.
00:17:10I know.
00:17:11I've been coming here every day and it still gets me.
00:17:16If only we could kill off all the tourists.
00:17:19You're a tourist.
00:17:21No, I'm not.
00:17:23I came out here a few months ago with this volunteer organization
00:17:27dedicated to studying the relic populations of dolphins and whales in the Gulf of Naples.
00:17:32I can't tell if you're joking.
00:17:33I'm dead fucking serious.
00:17:34No, I just didn't want to go to college and they paid for me to come over.
00:17:35Before connecting flights, a 72-hour plane ride.
00:17:36But, you know, it was worth it.
00:17:37My first time out of the US.
00:17:38How old are you?
00:17:39I'm 19.
00:17:40It's my birthday today.
00:17:41Is it really?
00:17:42Uh-huh.
00:17:43Happy birthday.
00:17:44Thank you very much.
00:17:45Yeah, so I left the program after like a month.
00:17:46Fuck the relic dolphins.
00:17:47I stayed on the island because I have this awesome living situation.
00:17:50I'll tell you the short version.
00:17:51Basically, I used to have ancestors in Iskia.
00:17:52So, when I come over, I Facebook these second cousins twice removed.
00:17:59The second cousin twice removed.
00:18:00In case you didn't know, it's when one person's great grandparent is another person's great great great grandparent.
00:18:02I'd love to hear the long version.
00:18:03Sorry.
00:18:04Anyway.
00:18:05and I'll tell you the short version.
00:18:07Basically, I used to have ancestors in Ischia,
00:18:09so when I come over, I Facebook this second cousin
00:18:11twice removed.
00:18:12The second cousin twice removed, in case you didn't know,
00:18:14is when one person's great-grandparent
00:18:16is another person's great-great-great-grandparent.
00:18:18I'd love to hear the long version.
00:18:20Sorry, anyway.
00:18:22So this relative gave me the name of this great uncle
00:18:24who lives on the island, so I show up.
00:18:27He answers the door, and he's like the oldest fucker
00:18:29I've ever seen, easily pushing 100.
00:18:32100?
00:18:33Yeah, if not older, he's like deaf and blind
00:18:36and about four feet tall, and he mumbles a couple of things
00:18:38to me in some crazy dialect, ushers me inside,
00:18:41pours me a glass of wine, and leads me to this basement
00:18:44apartment, and yeah, I never left.
00:19:03Mmm-hmm .
00:19:073
00:19:204
00:19:225
00:19:235
00:19:245
00:19:255
00:19:28Love teaches me to feed on flames and tears, to turn withered hope green through desire,
00:19:49to re-enslave my heart each time love frees his noble face from that heavy disdain.
00:19:55Who is that?
00:19:59Vittoria Colonna.
00:20:01Ah, the woman who lived here.
00:20:04You read that in your guidebook this morning, didn't you, Jane? Sneaky.
00:20:10Yeah, I've decided to learn Italian by committing to memory all the sonnets she wrote to Michelangelo in English and Italian.
00:20:17I thought Michelangelo was gay.
00:20:19Ah, according to history and the muscular thighs of his sculptures, yes.
00:20:24But that didn't stop her from loving him.
00:20:28Let's hear it then.
00:20:30In Italian.
00:20:32Let's hear the poem.
00:20:34Come on.
00:20:36I'm impressed.
00:20:50You hungry?
00:20:51Why, you gonna take me out?
00:20:52Yeah.
00:20:53All right then.
00:20:54Okay.
00:20:55Okay.
00:20:56la vista, tierra, ed alma.
00:21:05I'm impressed.
00:21:08You hungry?
00:21:10Why, you gonna take me out?
00:21:12Yeah.
00:21:18All right then.
00:21:19Okay.
00:21:20Two pastas with the house sauce, please?
00:21:27Red.
00:21:28Red, please.
00:21:29Uh-huh.
00:21:31Grazie.
00:21:32So you're really not gonna tell me what you do?
00:21:40I write freelance articles about parties and fashion trends in town and country UK.
00:21:45There's something else.
00:21:50I'm writing a book about my grandmother's experiences in rural England, living through
00:21:59two world wars.
00:22:00I recorded her for hours and hours.
00:22:03But now, I don't know.
00:22:07What don't you know?
00:22:10You wanna listen?
00:22:13A little?
00:22:14Yeah.
00:22:15Yeah?
00:22:16Yeah, no, I love to listen.
00:22:19A little tangled up.
00:22:20I don't know.
00:22:21Okay.
00:22:22Awful as it was, it made you stronger.
00:22:24These days, people whine about all sorts of things.
00:22:25And I'm not one of those old people who think my time had the only joy and the only problems.
00:22:27We all have our own private wars, every era.
00:22:28But I'm not one of those old people who think my time had the only joy and the only problems.
00:22:32We all have our own private wars, every era.
00:22:33But it was nothing like.
00:22:34It really brought people together, the war.
00:22:35The war.
00:22:36It really brought people together, the war.
00:22:37We helped each other during that time.
00:22:38We had to laugh.
00:22:39We had to laugh.
00:22:40We had to smile.
00:22:41We had to laugh.
00:22:42We had to smile.
00:22:43Well, if not for ourselves, then for the people we'd lost.
00:22:44Oh, shut that thing off.
00:22:45I'm not one of those old people who think my time had the only joy and the only problems.
00:22:54We all have our own private wars, every era.
00:22:57And it's like, it's like a window in time, the sort of thing which you always did before
00:23:25someone died, you know?
00:23:27My husband thinks I'm never going to finish it.
00:23:29I shouldn't care what anyone thinks.
00:23:32We met while I was recording her.
00:23:34Bonding over granny, huh?
00:23:37Make it sound perverse.
00:23:39That's what it was, right?
00:23:41Buongiorno.
00:23:42Buongiorno.
00:23:43Signori.
00:23:44I got pregnant, so we got married.
00:23:54I lost the baby.
00:24:01I'm sorry.
00:24:06I didn't go back after that to the States.
00:24:07I didn't go back after that to the States.
00:24:33Did you ever hear that story about the red string?
00:24:40I think I might have.
00:24:44Tell me.
00:24:46It's like this Asian proverb says that anyone you're destined to meet, like your soulmate
00:24:56or your family or, you know, someone you bump into on the street, we're all connected by this red string.
00:25:05It can be tangled or stretched, but it can never be broken.
00:25:12There's this moment in the tape.
00:25:21I'm sitting waiting in the airport bar for my flight.
00:25:25And I'm talking into the recorder, rambling on about how I'm about to embark on this amazing adventure and how I'm going to show World War II from a totally different perspective.
00:25:37But...
00:25:38I don't know if it's that interesting.
00:25:47That's the whole point, isn't it?
00:25:51Keeping it interesting for yourself.
00:25:54Maybe.
00:25:55Maybe.
00:25:56Maybe I just want to write about nothing.
00:25:59Everything is nothing.
00:26:01All the best.
00:26:02Compliano.
00:26:03Grazie.
00:26:04Grazie.
00:26:05Make a wish.
00:26:06Make it great.
00:26:07Okay.
00:26:25Bravo, bravo.
00:26:26Bravo, hey!
00:26:36What do you mean?
00:26:38What?
00:26:39Grab my hand.
00:26:40Go, go, go!
00:26:41Oh, my gosh!
00:26:43Oh, no!
00:26:45What? What do you mean?
00:26:53Hey, hey, hey!
00:26:55It's the carabinerary!
00:26:56Wait, wait, please!
00:26:57No!
00:26:58No!
00:27:03We can't go back!
00:27:05We can't go back!
00:27:06We can't go back!
00:27:07We can't go back!
00:27:09We can't back!
00:27:10We haven't got any money!
00:27:12Oh, God!
00:27:14Oh, God!
00:27:15Oh, God!
00:27:17Oh, God!
00:27:19We must go back!
00:27:20Hey!
00:27:21Hey!
00:27:22Hey!
00:27:23Hey!
00:27:24Hey!
00:27:25Hey!
00:27:26Hey!
00:27:27Hey!
00:27:28It makes me feel alright if I said, I know when they are.
00:27:29Yes, it's true.
00:27:30It's true.
00:27:32It's true.
00:27:33I made the check when I went in the bathroom!
00:27:37You're horrible.
00:27:42You're horrible.
00:27:44You're really horrible.
00:27:45Come on, let's go.
00:27:46Come on.
00:27:48Quick.
00:27:49Let's go.
00:27:51Why are we still running?
00:27:53I don't know.
00:27:53Why are we still running?
00:27:53I don't know.
00:27:54Oh, my gosh.
00:28:14It went up my nose.
00:28:21We come back?
00:28:23Maybe.
00:28:24Maybe it's not a no, and since I don't have a phone, you're going to have to give me your
00:28:32number for cheap thrills and future crimes committed.
00:28:37No.
00:28:40Fair enough.
00:28:50I've got to go catch a fairy.
00:28:54Hey.
00:29:02Why do violists keep their viola cases on their dashboards?
00:29:09Why?
00:29:10So they can park in handicapped spots.
00:29:28Happy birthday.
00:29:35Bye.
00:29:41I've got to go.
00:29:45God bless you.
00:30:15God bless you.
00:30:45You're awake.
00:30:52Yeah, I've got so much of this stuff to get through.
00:30:56Got through.
00:30:58Nice.
00:31:15Nellie was this little collie who wouldn't go on a leash,
00:31:24so she had to sit on a bicycle seat.
00:31:27They stay with me, too.
00:31:29Jane, Tony, I've got some pastries, are you still asleep?
00:31:54Jane.
00:31:59Jane.
00:32:20My friends had lots of American boyfriends, and they used to bring us nylon stockings and
00:32:25chocolates and all sorts of things, and we used to go to London, and we saw Glenn Miller
00:32:32one time.
00:32:33We used to go all over the place.
00:32:36They were wonderful times.
00:32:38I never had an American boyfriend.
00:32:42I liked some of them.
00:32:44They were nice boys, but I didn't want to leave my mom and dad.
00:32:51I wish I had sometimes.
00:32:52You know when you were 19 and the world just felt so open and carefree and full of possibility?
00:33:01You reminded me of that.
00:33:04At that time.
00:33:05You were 19 when we met?
00:33:06Yeah.
00:33:07I wouldn't have described it as carefree back then.
00:33:08Not at all.
00:33:09Well, I felt nostalgia.
00:33:10Or something.
00:33:11For youth.
00:33:12You're not old, Jane.
00:33:13We ran out on the bill.
00:33:14You just ran out?
00:33:15What do you mean you ran out on the bill?
00:33:16Perhaps I'm not explaining it well.

00:43:08Was it love at first sight with Grandpa? Love at first sight? Stop that thing.
00:43:16I know. You're home early.
00:43:19I do deserve that.
00:43:28You know, it doesn't work for your husband.
00:43:31Jane, I'm sorry. Just give me a minute. I have a hell of a mess in my day. I've got so much stuff to do.

00:45:33You should kind of be in the middle.
00:45:38Hold on a second.
00:45:50That's what our living room is missing.
00:45:57What did you do?
00:45:58Put my hand over my mouth.
00:45:59You did?
00:46:00What did you do?

00:46:51It's not a black flag.
00:47:19Oh, my God.
00:47:49Oh, my God.
00:48:19Oh, my God.
00:48:49Oh, my God.
00:48:57Oh, my God.
00:48:59Oh, my God.
00:49:01Oh, my God.
00:49:05I think I need to be less serious.

00:50:11Oh, my God.
00:50:13Oh, my God.
00:52:47Leonard thought you were lying about those cats.
00:52:52He said that?
00:52:56Were you?
00:52:57You're delicious.
00:52:59You make me feel nervous.
00:53:19You make me feel calm.
00:53:24You want a drink?
00:53:49You make me feel calm.
00:53:51You make me feel calm.
00:53:55You make me feel calm.
00:53:57You make me feel calm.
00:54:10You make me feel calm.
00:54:12You do?
00:54:13Shuffles around all night
00:54:17Must be lonely
00:54:43Chainsane
00:55:06Again and again and again
00:55:30Again and again and again
00:55:34Once I was single my pocket is in, jingle I wish I was single again
00:55:46Again and again and again
00:55:51Once I was single my pocket is in, jingle I wish I was single again
00:56:00I didn't sleep at all last night. Where have you been?
00:56:15I was walking.
00:56:18All night.
00:56:20I've been thinking.
00:56:22You left your phone here. I had to plug it in.
00:56:25We need to talk, Leonard.
00:56:28I have to go to work.
00:56:33Can you be late?
00:56:34No, I can't be late.
00:56:39Leonard.
00:56:40Jay, whatever you have to say to me, I want to hear it.
00:56:43I've committed myself.
00:56:46People are depending on me. I have to go to work.
00:56:52Okay.
00:56:58I got home.
00:57:11If it wasn't the war,
00:57:14If it wasn't the war, it would have been something else.
00:57:31There's always something else, isn't there?
00:57:34That's the thing. That's the thing about struggle.
00:57:44I'm going to make some tea. Do you want some?
00:57:51I'm all right.
00:57:59If you go out like that again, just tell me.
00:58:02Don't worry.
00:58:04Okay.
00:58:07I can't seem to figure out what's going on in your head.
00:58:14Do you think everything we've been through actually does us any good?
00:58:29In the long run?
00:58:32Or do we just make out struggle to be something meaningful because that's all most of us have?
00:58:44I'll tell you, next time we come to Italy, to get a proper kitchen.
00:58:57I don't know what you want me to say, Jane.
00:58:59I don't know what you want me to say, Jane.
00:59:04If one little thing had changed in my grandmother's life, I might not be here.
00:59:07If one little thing had changed in my grandmother's life, I might not be here.
00:59:11If one little thing had changed in my grandmother's life, I might not be here.
00:59:32Sometimes I worry I'm not honoring her.
00:59:42With the book?
00:59:45No, with my life.
00:59:51This is it, you know.
00:59:58It ends with me.
01:00:04In the harvest time, we all went to the field where they were cutting the corn.
01:00:10Everyone was chasing rabbits and then we had our tea in the harvest fields.
01:00:21The horses.
01:00:23The horses back then, they were kept beautifully.
01:00:32Dad used to dress them all up, brass things and little horseshoes.
01:00:38He put braids on them.
01:00:40They used to be gorgeous.
01:00:42What are your plans for tomorrow?
01:00:45There was one.
01:00:48Duke.
01:00:49He was a Clydesdale I used to ride down to the marshes.
01:00:53Every night when he finished working.
01:01:00They were lovely days, really.
01:01:08They're gone.
01:01:09For me.
01:01:10Jane.
01:01:13But not for you.
01:01:14Jane.
01:01:15You know, it's different for you.
01:01:18In some ways, it's easier.
01:01:20You haven't got the war.
01:01:21People don't die as much as they did back then.
01:01:24But in some ways, it's more disjointed.
01:01:31You've got to make your own life.
01:01:33One that you love and you can't be afraid of the time.
01:01:40Time is shiftable.
01:01:44There are moments in my life that I would trade 60 years to have back again.
01:01:56That's the truth.
01:01:58You'll know the truth when you find it.
01:02:01It'll come to you like something you've known before rather than something you're learning for the first time.
01:02:06Oh, sorry.
01:02:07What is it?
01:02:08Oh.
01:02:09Oh.
01:02:10You all right?
01:02:11Oh.
01:02:12You okay?
01:02:13Yeah.
01:02:14It's done my toe.
01:02:15Oh.
01:02:16It's bleeding.
01:02:17Oh.
01:02:18It's fine.
01:02:19It's fine.
01:02:20It's fine.
01:02:21It's fine.
01:02:22It's fine.
01:02:23You're losing it?
01:02:24Stunned my toe.
01:02:26It's bleeding.
01:02:28It's fine.
01:02:30It's fine. It's fine. It's fine.
01:02:32Are you losing it?
01:02:34Yes.
01:02:36Fuck.
01:02:48I met these backpackers last night, Frank and Elsa.
01:02:50She's French, he's German.
01:02:52They're going to Tibet.
01:02:54And I'm going with them.
01:02:58I want you to come with me.
01:03:22I love you.
01:03:56Hi.
01:04:05Hi.
01:04:07How are you?
01:04:10Long day.
01:04:14God, when are they not?
01:04:17I don't think I'm chomped at doing another stick like this.
01:04:24How's the writing going?
01:04:27I'm feeling inspired.
01:04:32It's fantastic.
01:04:34I think I've figured out the key to finishing the project.
01:04:39Are you listening?
01:04:45You found the key to finishing this project?
01:04:48Well, the water here tastes so funny.
01:05:02Have you ever cheated on me?
01:05:05Oh, Jane.
01:05:06Have you?
01:05:06Can we not?
01:05:09Have you?
01:05:15Absolutely not.
01:05:17Why did you take such a long time to answer that?
01:05:20Because I'm sick.
01:05:21Of what, Leonard?
01:05:24Of it being so hard?
01:05:27Yes.
01:05:27Tedious?
01:05:28I hate talking about sex with you.
01:05:37Is that what we're talking about?
01:05:38Normal people talk about sex, Leonard.
01:05:41And we don't?
01:05:42There's just huge, vacant lots that we don't discuss.
01:05:49Like what?
01:05:50Is there anything you want to ask me?
01:05:53Why?
01:05:53Is there anything you want to tell me?
01:05:55I just want to connect.
01:05:56So you don't feel that we're connected?
01:06:01Do you?
01:06:04I love you.
01:06:13I get it, Leonard.
01:06:15I get it.
01:06:17It's always been this big, serious, grave thing for us.
01:06:20Sex has consequences.
01:06:21Life and death.
01:06:22Mostly death.
01:06:23Jane, please.
01:06:24Let me guess.
01:06:25You don't want to talk about it?
01:06:26No, that's not what I'm saying.
01:06:28You're just...
01:06:28Do you want to have children, Leonard?
01:06:30Of course I did.
01:06:31Not did.
01:06:32Do you want to have children?
01:06:35So did you.
01:06:37But...
01:06:39Say it.
01:06:42Jane.
01:06:42Say it.
01:06:45I can't have children, Leonard.
01:06:48I never will.
01:06:50And if we keep trying, they keep dying.
01:06:53Again and again.
01:06:55Please.
01:06:55And again.
01:06:58How does that make you feel?
01:07:04It's not your father.
01:07:05How does it make you feel, Leonard?
01:07:07How does it make you feel?
01:07:10You will never be a father.
01:07:13We can adopt.
01:07:14That's not what you want.
01:07:15That's not what you want, is it?
01:07:18Is that what you want?
01:07:20Hmm?
01:07:22Because I think about it all the time.
01:07:27That the one thing you always wanted, I will never be able to give you.
01:07:30What are you trying to do, Jane?
01:07:43I just want to know that there's a reason for it all.
01:07:46You're not curious about me, Leonard.
01:07:59Not really.
01:08:01What do you want me to know?
01:08:02You shouldn't have to ask.
01:08:03I feel as if you want me to be someone I'm not.
01:08:09Someone that I've never been.
01:08:14I'm leaving you.
01:08:15I've been seeing someone else.
01:08:24See him.
01:08:26Caleb.
01:08:28That kid?
01:08:29Yes.
01:08:31That kid?
01:08:31That child?
01:08:32That kid you've known for two days?
01:08:34It's been longer than that.
01:08:34Please tell me you're joking.
01:08:37Time is shiftable.
01:08:39I don't get it.
01:08:39Leonard.
01:08:41I don't get it.
01:08:42He's asked me to travel with him.
01:08:43Are you sleeping with him?
01:08:48What do you think?
01:08:55I kept waiting for you to see it.
01:08:57To smell it.
01:08:58To sense it.
01:08:59So what?
01:09:00I failed your test?
01:09:02You don't see me!
01:09:13I'm sorry.
01:09:24For what?
01:09:27I'm sorry.
01:09:28For what?
01:09:28I shouldn't have done that.
01:09:29No.
01:09:30I'm losing my temper.
01:09:31I shouldn't have done that.
01:09:32Right.
01:09:32To lose your temper.
01:09:34No, no, no, no.
01:09:34If you think that this is what's going to make you feel better, then you should go.
01:09:38You should go with him.
01:09:40You've been through a terrible, terrible thing, Jane.
01:09:44That is not what this is about.
01:09:46Of course it is.
01:09:46You don't love me anymore, Leonard.
01:09:49You don't love me!
01:09:50That's rubbish.
01:09:52This is your ticket.
01:09:55The day after my performance, meet me at the train station.
01:10:01Our training's at 4.30.
01:10:03We'll go home together.
01:10:05I want you to do what you need to do, and then come back to me.
01:10:17No questions asked, no guilt.
01:10:22This is good.
01:10:35This is good.
01:11:05I want you to do what you need to do, and then come back to me.
01:11:35Hi.
01:11:46Hi.
01:11:48Hi.
01:12:00You want some?
01:12:02No thanks.
01:12:33Frank and Elsa, coming over in a couple of hours.
01:12:49Frank bought a car, so we're going to head out in a couple of weeks or so, you know.
01:12:55I'm thinking of driving through Romania and then Ukraine and down through Russia and through Kazakhstan and then straight to Tibet.
01:13:37PIANO PLAYS
01:14:07Ciao, buona fortuna
01:14:10Ciao
01:14:37Jase!
01:14:54You've got to come over to this side.
01:15:00Train's going to be here in a minute.
01:15:01It's four in the morning, the end of December.
01:15:31I'm riding you now just to see if you're there.
01:15:38New York is cold, but I like where I'm living.
01:15:44There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening.
01:15:49I hear that you're building your house deep in the desert.
01:16:01Are you living for nothing now?
01:16:07Hope you're keeping some kind of record.
01:16:11Yes.
01:16:13And Jane came by with a lock of your hair.
01:16:22She said that you gave it to her.
01:16:28That night when you planned to go clear.
01:16:33I wouldn't want to live to be 100.
01:16:36Why not?
01:16:37I'm not telling you why not.
01:16:39Did you ever go clear?
01:16:43Now shut that thing off.
01:16:44Are the last...
01:16:45Are the last...
