00:00:00Excuse me, it's okay.
00:00:02It's okay. It's okay, it's okay.
00:00:05It's okay.
00:00:07Let me help her back.
00:00:30It's okay, it's okay.
00:00:33Maruzella, Maruzella.
00:00:42Vedi, questo è Napoli.
00:00:44Napoli è pieno divertimento.
00:00:46Ci sono posti per divertirti e posti che ci sono brutti.
00:01:00Alla prossima.
00:01:06I'm looking for the concert.
00:01:07And then you drive right by it.
00:01:09There it is.
00:01:13Very funny.
00:01:23I think it's gonna be good.
00:01:25Must be.
00:01:30Il traffico di Napoli.
00:01:32Il questo vale.
00:01:43Shit.
00:01:45Who?
00:01:46Camp on my wallet.
00:01:47The pemmeista pace?
00:01:52No.
00:01:53Non è la sua mouse in casa.
00:01:55So, somewhere?
00:01:57Maybe no trucs.
00:02:00What are you thinking?
00:02:07Don't throw anything away from my hostage.
00:02:09Can you let her go for a second?
00:02:12She's lost her purse.
00:02:14Her purse.
00:02:16No, no. Is there anything?
00:02:18Did she just give her a minute?
00:02:21You can't hold her.
00:02:23Just wait a minute.
00:02:24No, no, no...
00:02:25I don't need a minute.
00:02:26No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:02:27No, no, no, no, no, no!
00:02:29Where did you have it last?
00:02:36The train station, I think.
00:02:38The exchange booth.
00:02:42Oh, Jamie.
00:02:43I'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, we need, we need sevens.
00:03:10Here we go.
00:03:20Is this it?
00:03:22Thanks, man.
00:03:22Yes, I have a credit card.
00:03:28The number's on file on my computer.
00:03:33Yes, I have a credit card.
00:03:45The number's on file on my computer.
00:03:47Yes, I have them here.
00:03:50Okay.
00:03:52Five, five, three, three.
00:03:55Seven, six, four, five.
00:03:58Eight, seven, eight, seven.
00:04:01Nine, one, five, seven.
00:04:04Five, seven.
00:04:05Four, five, six, seven.
00:04:07Yeah.
00:04:08Expires 12.15.
00:04:11No, she'll definitely need another card sent out immediately.
00:04:14We're here for two weeks.
00:04:17No, I'm working here.
00:04:18Yes, I'll hold.
00:04:23You love how they ask, as if I have a choice.
00:04:27Do you know what I'm going to try to do while I'm here?
00:04:30Besides learn 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?
00:04:47I think the 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 I 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.
00:05:21She doesn't sound very supportive.
00:05:25You 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.
00:06:05I 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, though.
00:06:10I don't know.
00:06:11You have to read it when I'm done, though.
00:06:12I don't know.
00:06:13I don't know.
00:06:14I don't know.
00:06:15I don't know.
00:06:16I don't know.
00:06:17I don't know.
00:06:18You can't get a sense by his writing?
00:06:19You have to read it when I'm done, though.
00:06:20You have to read it when I'm done, though, right?
00:06:26I don't know.
00:06:27I don't know.
00:06:28I don't know.
00:06:29I don't know.
00:06:30I don't know.
00:06:31Do you think he recognised 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.
00:06:39Do you know?
00:06:40Just so tedious.
00:06:43And then, of course, he felt guilty.
00:06:45Most people think life is too short, and there he was, all the talent in the world, and
00:06:49it wasn't enough.
00:06:50Jane, can I...
00:06:51Can we not talk about this?
00:06:53Just... just a bit more, a bit.
00:07:12Love you.
00:07:14Love you, too.
00:07:22oh, bob.
00:07:24Love you.
00:07:33Yeah.
00:07:35You feel all right?
00:07:36You feel okay?
00:07:37Yeah.
00:07:38You sure?
00:07:42Mm-hm.
00:07:44Yeah.
00:07:45Mm-hmm.
00:08:15Mm-hmm.
00:08:45Mm-hmm.
00:09:15Are you sure you won't come with?
00:09:18You'll be so busy.
00:09:21I get boring all alone.
00:09:24I think someone should be here in case the card is delivered.
00:09:27True.
00:09:33Then I think I might go out, see what the world has to offer.
00:09:37If you do, leave me a message, okay?
00:09:39Mm-hmm.
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.
00:09:56Yes.
00:09:56Testing, testing, okay.
00:10:25Do you have any stories for my book?
00:10:26What kind of stories?
00:10:28Stories that you've prepared.
00:10:30Or I can ask them the list of stories that Dad told me about.
00:10:33Go ahead and ask from your father's list, God rest his soul.
00:10:37Let's start with the war.
00:10:39We went into an air raid shelter.
00:10:41My mother, your great-grandmother, she was shaking.
00:10:45Sirens wailed and...
00:10:47And then there was the sound of a bomb.
00:10:49And the man next to us, he said,
00:10:52I was in a shelter last night with my wife and my little boy.
00:10:55And half of it got blown away.
00:10:58There was blood in his hair.
00:11:00He was all alone.
00:11:02That nearly finished my mother, you know.
00:11:04Here we were in this tiny town in England,
00:11:09miles from Germany, from Russia, from Italy, from any front lines.
00:11:13And this man, he had blood in his hair.
00:11:20He had blood in his hair.
00:11:22And he was hearted.
00:11:23He had blood in his hair.
00:11:24The man was of the army.
00:11:25He had blood in his hair.
00:11:26Good night, today.
00:11:46Glory to God.
00:11:47Peace, dear.
00:11:48Peace, dear.
00:11:49Peace, dear.
00:11:50Amen.
00:11:56We were riding our bikes to school when the Germans started firing at us.
00:12:01We jumped into a hedge.
00:12:03We were terrified, but afterwards we couldn't stop laughing.
00:12:09Feels now as if I'm the only one who remembers that.
00:12:12It's as vivid to me as if it happened yesterday.
00:12:17Oh, hi, Leonard.
00:12:19It's Jane.
00:12:21I decided to take an impromptu trip to Iskia, or, um, Iskia, as they pronounce it.
00:12:27See, I'm learning a little bit.
00:12:29Um, anyway, I'll be home later.
00:12:32I hope you have a good day.
00:12:34Bye.
00:12:35Those friends are all dead now.
00:12:38There's no one left.
00:12:40That's one of my regrets, you know.
00:12:43Sometimes I think I should have had more children, not just your father.
00:12:48You're all alone now that your parents are gone.
00:12:52No brothers, no sisters.
00:12:58I'm upsetting you.
00:13:00Let's talk about something else.
00:13:02You want to ask me more boring questions about the war?
00:13:06All right, then.
00:13:09Uh, scusi.
00:13:11Scusi.
00:13:12Um, the castle?
00:13:14Castle?
00:13:15Parlato inglese?
00:13:17No, no, no.
00:13:18No?
00:13:19Um, Castello Aureganese?
00:13:23Ah, andare.
00:13:24Andare?
00:13:25Andare?
00:13:26Ah, grazie.
00:13:27They'd been shot through the neck.
00:13:31The bullet went in one side and came out the other.
00:13:35And there were all these bomb holes filled with water,
00:13:38and he couldn't tell which was the German side and which was the Allied side.
00:13:42When he came home after something like that, you couldn't really complain to him about anything, now could you?
00:13:49I'm actually going there now, to the castle.
00:13:52You speak English now?
00:13:53Yeah.
00:13:54Why, do you think I was Italian?
00:13:55Yeah.
00:13:56Yeah.
00:13:57Yes!
00:13:58That's great.
00:13:59That's cool.
00:14:00Hey, hey, hey.
00:14:01Where are you from?
00:14:02London.
00:14:03No, in America.
00:14:04Come 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?
00:14:13No.
00:14:14Are you?
00:14:15What?
00:14:16Are you here on vacation?
00:14:17Sorry.
00:14:18I thought you were saying you were on vacation.
00:14:22Me?
00:14:23No.
00:14:24So come on.
00:14:26My husband is working in Naples.
00:14:29What does he do?
00:14:31He is playing in a concert at the end of the month.
00:14:34Cool.
00:14:35What does he play?
00:14:36Viola.
00:14:37Mm-mm-mm.
00:14:38The viola.
00:14:40Any good?
00:14:43Yes.
00:14:44Very.
00:14:47How do you keep your violin from getting stolen?
00:14:52You put it in a viola case.
00:14:55Right?
00:14:56That's not funny.
00:14:58What's the difference between a viola and a coffin?
00:15:01A coffin has a dead person on the inside.
00:15:04Because viola players are dead?
00:15:06No?
00:15:07Why is a viola solo like premature ejaculation?
00:15:10Because even though you know it's coming,
00:15:14there's nothing you can do about it.
00:15:16I can't help it.
00:15:18I've got this weird, autistic mind for jokes,
00:15:20and I went to this music-slash-nerd summer camp
00:15:22when I was, like, ten, and I played the triangle.
00:15:24Right.
00:15:25And I'm an only child, so...
00:15:26You know, understand.
00:15:30You look too young to be married.
00:15:32You newlywed?
00:15:33No.
00:15:34No.
00:15:35No.
00:15:36No.
00:15:46Stop making me feel like a stalker.
00:15:48What the fuck?
00:15:49Want to give me ten, please?
00:15:50Yes.
00:15:5110.
00:15:5210.
00:15:5310.
00:15:57One?
00:15:58Five.
00:15:59All right.
00:16:02Oh, hey, have you got 50 cents?
00:16:06If you can catch it.
00:16:11What brought you out of here today?
00:16:34Very.
00:16:35Ha!
00:16:36Very.
00:16:37I like it.
00:16:39They have this device down in the basement.
00:16:41It's like a torture cage.
00:16:43They lock you in there until you turn up bones.
00:16:47But can you imagine dying by just sitting there?
00:16:49That would suck.
00:16:51In like the 1300s, thousands of families lived in this castle.
00:17:02It must smell pretty bad.
00:17:04All those people crammed onto this rock.
00:17:10Wow.
00:17:11I know.
00:17:12I've been coming here every day and it still gets me.
00:17:15If only we could kill off all the tourists.
00:17:18You're a tourist.
00:17:20No, 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
00:17:31in the Gulf of Naples.
00:17:34I can't tell if you're joking.
00:17:35I'm dead fucking serious.
00:17:39I just didn't want to go to college and they paid for me to come over.
00:17:42Four connecting flights, a 72-hour plane ride, but you know,
00:17:45it was worth it.
00:17:46My first time out of the US.
00:17:47How old are you?
00:17:48I'm 19.
00:17:49It's my birthday today.
00:17:51Is it really?
00:17:52Uh-huh.
00:17:53Happy birthday.
00:17:54Thank you very much.
00:17:55Yeah, so I left the program after like a month.
00:17:58Fuck the relic dolphins!
00:18:00I just stayed on the island because I have this awesome living situation.
00:18:05I'll tell you the short version.
00:18:06Basically, I used to have ancestors in Ischia, so when I come over, I Facebook this second cousin twice removed.
00:18:11The second cousin twice removed, in case you didn't know, is when one person's great-grandparent is another person's great-great-great-grandparent.
00:18:17I'd love to hear the long version.
00:18:19Sorry.
00:18:20Anyway, so this relative gave me the name of this great uncle who lives on the island, so I show up.
00:18:26He answers the door and he's like the oldest fucker I've ever seen, easily pushing a hundred.
00:18:31A hundred?
00:18:32Yeah, if not older, he's like deaf and blind and about four feet tall.
00:18:36He mumbles a couple of things to me in some crazy dialect, ushers me inside, pours me a glass of wine and leads me to this basement apartment.
00:18:43And uh, yeah, I never left.
00:19:13Love teaches me to feed on flames and tears.
00:19:41To turn withered hope green through desire.
00:19:46To re-enslave my heart each time love frees his noble face from that heavy disdain.
00:19:54Who is that?
00:19:57Vittoria Colonna.
00:20:00Ah, the woman who lived here.
00:20:03You read that in your guidebook this morning, didn't you, Jane?
00:20:07Sneaky.
00:20:09Yeah, I've decided to learn Italian by committing to memory all the sonnets she wrote to Michelangelo in English and Italian.
00:20:16I thought Michelangelo was gay.
00:20:18Ah, according to history and the muscular thighs of his sculptures, yes, but that didn't stop her from loving him.
00:20:26Let's hear it then.
00:20:27In Italian.
00:20:28Let's hear the poem.
00:20:29Come on.
00:20:30Okay.
00:20:31Okay.
00:20:32Let's hear the poem.
00:20:33Come on.
00:20:34Okay.
00:20:35Okay.
00:20:36De lacrime a de faco nutria l'alma.
00:20:42Con secca speme reinvedia la voglia.
00:20:48Lega de nuovo il cor quando de scioglia.
00:20:54Segna maggiore la vista tierra ed alma.
00:21:01I'm impressed.
00:21:07You hungry?
00:21:09Why, you gonna take me out?
00:21:11Yeah.
00:21:12Alright then.
00:21:13Okay.
00:21:14Two 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?
00:21:37I write freelance articles about parties and fashion trends in town and country UK.
00:21:45There's something else.
00:21:51I'm writing a book about my grandmother's experiences in rural England, living through two
00:21:59world 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.
00:22:17No, I love to listen.
00:22:29Well, it's tangled up.
00:22:30Don't laugh.
00:22:31Okay.
00:22:32Awful as it was, it made you stronger.
00:22:45These days people whine about all sorts of things and I'm not one of those old people
00:22:49who think my time had the only joy and the only problems.
00:22:53We all have our own private wars, every era, but it was nothing like...
00:22:59It really brought people together, the war.
00:23:02We helped each other during that time.
00:23:04We had to laugh, we had to smile.
00:23:07Well, if not for ourselves, then for the people we'd lost.
00:23:11Shut that thing off, would you get it out of my face?
00:23:18That is like...
00:23:19It's like a window in time.
00:23:22The sort of thing you wish you always did before someone died, you know?
00:23:26My husband thinks I'm never gonna 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?
00:23:42Buongiorno.
00:23:43Buongiorno.
00:23:44Signori.
00:23:53I got pregnant so we got married.
00:24:00I lost the baby.
00:24:05I'm sorry.
00:24:09I didn't go back after that to the States.
00:24:11Did you, uh...
00:24:12Did you ever hear that song?
00:24:13No.
00:24:14No.
00:24:15No.
00:24:16No.
00:24:17No.
00:24:18No.
00:24:19No.
00:24:20No.
00:24:21No.
00:24:22No.

00:24:26No.
00:24:27No.
00:24:28No.
00:24:29No.

00:24:58No.
00:24:59No.
00:25:00No.
00:25:01bump into on the street. We're all connected by this red string. It can be tangled or
00:25:10stretched, but it can never be broken.
00:25:16There's this moment in the tape. I'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
00:25:31amazing adventure and how I'm going to show World War II from a totally different perspective.
00:25:37But...
00:25:46I don't know if it's that interesting.
00:25:49That's the whole point, isn't it? Keeping it interesting for yourself.
00:25:56Maybe. Maybe I just want to write about nothing.
00:26:02Everything is nothing.
00:26:04All the best.
00:26:06Compliano.
00:26:07Grazie.
00:26:08Grazie.
00:26:09Make a wish.
00:26:10Oh, yeah.
00:26:11Make a wish.
00:26:12Make a wish.
00:26:13Oh, yeah.
00:26:14Make it great.
00:26:15Okay.
00:26:16Bravo.
00:26:17Bravo.
00:26:18Hey.
00:26:19You ready?
00:26:20What do you mean?
00:26:21I'm ready.
00:26:22What?
00:26:23Grab my hand.
00:26:24Wait.
00:26:25Go.
00:26:26Go.
00:26:27Go.
00:26:28Oh, my God.
00:26:29Oh, my gosh.
00:26:30Oh, no.
00:26:31What?
00:26:32What do you mean?
00:26:33How do you mean?
00:26:34I'm ready.
00:26:35What?
00:26:36Try my hand.
00:26:37Wait!
00:26:38Here.
00:26:39Go.
00:26:40Go.
00:26:41Oh, my God.
00:26:42Oh, my gosh.
00:26:43Oh, my gosh.
00:26:44Oh, no.
00:26:45What?
00:26:46What do you mean?
00:26:51Oh, yeah.
00:26:53Hey.
00:26:54Hey.
00:26:55Hey.
00:26:56Hey.
00:26:57Hey.
00:26:58Yeah! Yeah!
00:27:04We can't go back! We can't go back!
00:27:09We can't pay! We haven't got any money!
00:27:13Oh God!
00:27:15Come here!
00:27:16Oh God!
00:27:23Hang on!
00:27:24Hang on!
00:27:25What?
00:27:27Would it make you feel better if I said I said no one day off?
00:27:30Yes, it's true.
00:27:32Yes, it's true.
00:27:34I made the check when I went to the bathroom.
00:27:39You're horrible.
00:27:42You're horrible.
00:27:43You're really horrible.
00:27:44Come on, let's go.
00:27:45Come on.
00:27:47Quick.
00:27:48Let's go.
00:27:51Why are we still running?
00:27:52I don't know why we're still running.
00:27:55Let's go.
00:27:57Oh my gosh.
00:27:58Go ahead.
00:27:59What about my nose?
00:28:01We come back?
00:28:03Maybe.
00:28:04Oh, my gosh.
00:28:14What about my nose?
00:28:21We come back?
00:28:23Maybe.
00:28:26Maybe is not a no.
00:28:29And since I don't have a phone,
00:28:31you're going to have to give me your number.
00:28:33For cheap thrills and future crimes committed.
00:28:37No.
00:28:40Fair enough.
00:28:50I've got to go catch a fairy.
00:28:57Hey.
00:28:58Why do violists keep their viola cases on their dashboards?
00:29:19Why?
00:29:20So they can park in a handicapped spot.
00:29:29Oh.
00:29:32Happy birthday.
00:29:35Oh, yes.
00:29:50Oh, yes.
00:29:51Oh, yes.
00:30:58Nice.
00:31:29Jane.
00:31:30Tony.
00:31:31Got some pastries.
00:31:35You're still asleep?
00:31:36Jane.
00:31:37Tony.
00:31:38Got some pastries.
00:31:42You're still asleep?
00:31:44Jane.
00:31:45Jane.
00:31:46Jane.
00:31:48Jane.
00:31:49Jane.
00:31:50Jane.
00:31:51Jane.
00:31:52Jane.
00:31:53Jane.
00:31:55Jane.
00:31:56Jane.
00:31:57Jane.
00:31:58Jane.
00:31:59Jane.
00:32:00Jane.
00:32:01Jane.
00:32:02Jane.
00:32:03Jane.
00:32:04Jane.
00:32:05Jane.
00:32:06Jane.
00:32:07Jane.
00:32:08Jane.
00:32:09Jane.
00:32:10Jane.
00:32:11Jane.
00:32:12Jane.
00:32:13Jane.
00:32:14Jane.
00:32:15Jane.
00:32:16Jane.
00:32:17Jane.
00:32:18Jane.
00:32:19My friends had lots of American boyfriends and they used to bring us nylon stockings and chocolates and all sorts of things.
00:32:27And we used to go to London and we saw Glenn Miller one time.
00:32:33We used to go all over the place.
00:32:36They were wonderful times.
00:32:39I 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 mum and dad.
00:32:52I wish I had sometimes.
00:32:54You 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.
00:33:06You were 19 when we met?
00:33:07Yeah.
00:33:08I wouldn't have described you as carefree back then. Not at all.
00:33:12Well, I felt nostalgia.
00:33:14Or something. For youth.
00:33:16You're not old, Jane.
00:33:18We ran out on the bill.
00:33:20You just ran out? What do you mean you ran out on the bill?
00:33:24Perhaps I'm not explaining it well. It was...
00:33:27It was fun.
00:33:29It was just fun.
00:33:31How was work?
00:33:43The conductor's actually a descendant of Walter Legg, which is fascinating.
00:33:48The three of us should plan a dinner before we leave.
00:33:50I'd like that.
00:33:56Jane?
00:33:58Oh, my God.
00:34:00This is Caleb.
00:34:02Hi.
00:34:03No, no, we were just talking about you.
00:34:05We were?
00:34:06That's so weird.
00:34:07Sit, please.
00:34:08Sit down.
00:34:09Join us.
00:34:10What?
00:34:11Ugh.
00:34:12You had the chances of that.
00:34:14I know, right?
00:34:19I'm obviously going to get back pretty soon.
00:34:21That's okay.
00:34:22I already ate, so I'll just grab a coffee or something.
00:34:34Grab the check, please.
00:34:36Okay.
00:34:37In a cafe, play, play?
00:34:43Oh, no, thank you.
00:34:44Okay.
00:34:48Jane?
00:34:49You don't smoke.
00:34:51Yes, I do.
00:34:53Sometimes, at parties.
00:34:56You know that.
00:34:58Well, I don't do it a lot.
00:35:02Grazie.
00:35:04Grazie.
00:35:05Grazie.
00:35:08Italian food's so overrated.
00:35:11I love it.
00:35:13There's no variety.
00:35:14English food, on the other hand...
00:35:16Say what you like about it.
00:35:18There's nothing like a good steak and kidney pie.
00:35:21I went to this party the other day in this villa owned by this old, drunk ex-pat.
00:35:27They had, like, a private chef and everything.
00:35:30And, uh, they were serving this, like, loaf of meat covered in sauce with all these other loaves.
00:35:36And this girl came over to me and said it was cat.
00:35:38No.
00:35:39No joke.
00:35:40Like, a roasted mommy cat and her kittens.
00:35:44That is disgusting.
00:35:46True story.
00:35:51Why don't you tell Leonard one of your viola jokes?
00:35:58Come on.
00:35:59I'm selling my ant.
00:36:02Come on.
00:36:03Let's hear one.
00:36:07Um...
00:36:09I have one.
00:36:12What is the definition of perfect pitch?
00:36:17What?
00:36:21When you throw a viola into the dumpster without hitting the rim.
00:36:25You didn't just make that up.
00:36:27I did.
00:36:28It's too good.
00:36:29I did.
00:36:30Well, I'm impressed and I'm stealing it.
00:36:33You can pretty much make that joke about any instrument.
00:36:39Did you play anything, Caleb?
00:36:41This and that, you know.
00:36:45Shall we?
00:36:47What, time to go? Already?
00:36:49Yeah, I'm gonna get back to work.
00:36:54I'm gonna get back to work.
00:36:55I'm gonna get back to work.
00:36:57I'm gonna get back to work.
00:37:00So what's next on your agenda, Caleb?
00:37:03Um, I'm thinking Tibet.
00:37:06Oh, Tibet, really?
00:37:08Yeah, I just think on the Shantan Festival at the end of the summer.
00:37:10Yeah, I've heard about that.
00:37:11That's where the Buddhist monks unroll all the tapestries on the hill, right?
00:37:16The monks, the monks, the monks.
00:37:18So pretty.
00:37:20How do you support yourself?
00:37:22You know, a bit of this, a bit of that.
00:37:29All right then.
00:37:31I'll walk you.
00:37:32Does anybody have a pen?
00:37:33You got a pen?
00:37:34Yeah, I have a pen.
00:37:42Okay.
00:37:43I have a piece of paper.
00:37:44You guys should definitely come over to the island.
00:37:45I'll take you somewhere fun, you know.
00:37:46But don't knock on the front door.
00:37:47Come around the side.
00:37:48I need Regina.
00:37:49Viscia.
00:37:50There you go.
00:37:52And thanks again for yesterday.
00:37:53Oh, no problem.
00:37:55Okay.
00:37:56Ciao.
00:37:57How stoned are you?
00:38:10Come on, man.
00:38:11We should tell him a pop.
00:38:12It's not a big deal.
00:38:13So you're saying you smoke back at her?
00:38:14Occasionally.
00:38:15Can we do something fun tonight?
00:38:16Sure.
00:38:17I'm fine from here.
00:38:18Okay.
00:38:19See you after work.
00:38:20Yep.
00:38:21I'll be waiting.
00:38:22Okay.
00:38:23Bye.
00:38:24Bye.
00:38:25Bye.
00:38:26Bye.
00:38:27Bye.
00:38:28Bye.
00:38:29Bye.
00:38:30Bye.
00:38:31Bye.
00:38:32Bye.
00:38:33Bye.
00:38:34Bye.
00:38:35Bye.
00:38:36Bye.
00:38:37Bye.
00:38:38Bye.
00:38:39Bye.
00:38:40Bye.
00:38:41Bye.
00:38:42Bye.
00:38:43Bye.
00:38:44Bye.
00:38:45Bye.
00:38:46Bye.
00:39:14Hey.
00:39:15God, you scared me.
00:39:16Are you following me?
00:39:17Maybe?
00:39:18Is that weird?
00:39:19Yeah.
00:39:20I couldn't sleep last night.
00:39:21You told me you were staying near the port so I got the first ferry this morning.
00:39:25I came looking for you.
00:39:26And I can't believe I found you.
00:39:27I can't believe I found you.
00:39:28I can't believe I found you.
00:39:29I can't believe I found you.
00:39:30I can't believe you.
00:39:31I can't believe I found you.
00:39:32I can't believe you.
00:39:33You told me you were staying near the port so I got the first ferry this morning.
00:39:40I came looking for you and I can't believe I found you.
00:40:03What are we doing?
00:40:29I think we're making it out.
00:40:32So sexy and beautiful.
00:41:02I can't do this.
00:41:09What?
00:41:10What?
00:41:11Why?
00:41:18Do you do this a lot?
00:41:23What?
00:41:24Do you do this a lot?
00:41:25What?
00:41:26Do you seduce women?
00:41:27Is this what you do?
00:41:28You need to be less serious.
00:41:35Don't follow me.
00:41:36Don't follow me.
00:41:42Don't follow me.
00:41:43Don't follow me.
00:41:44Don't follow me.
00:41:45Don't follow me.
00:41:49Don't follow me.
00:41:50Don't follow me.
00:41:51Don't follow me.
00:41:56Don't follow me.
00:42:28There was one boy from Belgium.
00:42:48He was lovely.
00:42:50He had a moustache.
00:42:52My mother hated moustaches.
00:42:56But he was shipped off.
00:42:58I never saw him again.
00:43:04Anyways, I met your grandfather not long after and we got married.
00:43:09Was it love at first sight with grandpa?
00:43:12Love at first sight?
00:43:14Stop that thing.
00:43:16I know.
00:43:18You're home early.
00:43:19I do deserve that.
00:43:29You know, it doesn't have to be a husband.
00:43:31Jane, I'm sorry.
00:43:37Just give me a minute.
00:43:38I have a hell of a rest of my day.
00:43:40I've got so much stuff to do.
00:43:45Sorry, darling.
00:43:46Hey, do you still want to do something fun tonight?
00:43:49Yeah, absolutely.
00:43:50I've got some dinner.
00:43:51I thought we'd just stay in here.
00:43:53The two of us.
00:43:53I've just got to work this thing out for tomorrow.
00:43:57Okay.
00:43:58I'm sorry.
00:43:59Okay.
00:43:59I'm sorry.
00:43:59I'm sorry.
00:44:00I'm sorry.
00:44:36Leonard, can we talk?
00:45:06Say cheese.
00:45:29No, you should kind of be in the middle of mine.
00:45:39Hold on a second.
00:45:39That's what our living room is missing.
00:45:52What did you do?
00:46:09Put my hand over my mouth.
00:46:11You did?
00:46:12What did you do?
00:46:13Just wave.
00:46:14Come on.
00:46:44CHIRPIT
00:47:14All right.
00:47:44All right.
00:48:14All right.
00:48:44All right.
00:48:46Oh, hi.
00:49:00Did I wake you?
00:49:03No.
00:49:06I think I need to be less serious.
00:49:08Yeah.
00:49:13I'm going to put my pants on.
00:49:16Okay.
00:49:38I'm going to put my pants on.
00:50:08I'm going to put my pants on.
00:50:38I'm going to put my pants on.
00:51:08I'm going to put my pants on.
00:51:38I'm going to put my pants on.
00:52:08I'm going to put my pants on.
00:52:38I'm going to put my pants on.
00:52:48Leonard thought you were lying about those cats.
00:52:51I'm going to put my pants on.
00:52:53I'm going to put my pants on.
00:52:55I'm going to put my pants on.
00:52:57I'm going to put my pants on.
00:52:58I'm going to put my pants on.
00:53:01I'm going to put my pants on.
00:53:02You make me feel nervous.
00:53:23You make me feel calm.
00:53:32You want a drink?
00:53:50You make me feel calm.
00:54:09Is that him?
00:54:12Yeah, he just shuffled around all night.
00:54:16It must be lonely.
00:54:46You make me feel calm.
00:54:48I'm in love.
00:54:50You make me feel calm.
00:54:52I can't...
00:54:53It's like a family raised in love.
00:54:55I don't think I can be there, I can't...
00:54:56I can't know.
00:54:57I don't think I can't.
00:54:59But I couldn't.
00:55:00I can't.
00:55:01I can't do it.
00:55:02I can't.
00:55:03I can't do it.
00:55:05I can't.
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
00:55:39I wish I was single again
00:55:43Again and again and again
00:55:47Again and again and again
00:55:52Once I was single, my pocket is in jingle
00:55:57I 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've got to go.
00:57:01But I can't wait.
00:57:03I can't wait.
00:57:13I can't wait.
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 alright.
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?
00:58:40I'll tell you, next time we come to Italy, to get a proper kitchen.
00:58:56I don't know what you want me to say, Jane.
00:59:03I don't know what you want me to say, Jane.
00:59:08If one little thing had changed in my grandmother's life, I might not be here.
00:59:23Sometimes I worry I'm not honoring her.
00:59:26With the book?
00:59:28No, with my life.
00:59:29This is it, you know.
00:59:30No, with my life.
00:59:35This is it, you know.
00:59:36It ends with me.
00:59:40In the harvest time, we all went to the field where they were cutting the corn.
00:59:47Everyone was chasing rabbits.
00:59:48Then we had our tea in the harvest fields.
00:59:50We all went to the field where they were cutting the corn.
00:59:54Everyone was chasing rabbits.
00:59:56Then we had our tea in the harvest fields.
01:00:01The horses.
01:00:02The horses.
01:00:03Yes?
01:00:04The horses back then, they were kept beautifully.
01:00:06We all went to the field where they were cutting the corn.
01:00:09Everyone was chasing rabbits.
01:00:11And then we had our tea in the harvest fields.
01:00:16The horses.
01:00:17The horses.
01:00:18Yeah.
01:00:19The horses back then, they were kept beautifully.
01:00:32Dad used to dress them all up.
01:00:34Brass things and little horseshoes.
01:00:37He 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.
01:01:11But 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.
01:01:23But in some ways, it's more disjointed.
01:01:27You've got to make your own life.
01:01:28One that you love and you can't be afraid of the time.
01:01:40Time is shiftable.
01:01:42There are moments in my life that I would trade 60 years to have back again.
01:01:55That's the truth.
01:01:57You'll know the truth when you find it.
01:02:00It'll come to you like something you've known before rather than something you're learning for the first time.
01:02:10Sorry.
01:02:12Ah!
01:02:13Ah!
01:02:14What is it?
01:02:15Ah!
01:02:16Ah!
01:02:17Ah!
01:02:18You...
01:02:19Ah!
01:02:20You all right?
01:02:21Ah!
01:02:22You okay?
01:02:23Yeah.
01:02:24Stunned my toe.
01:02:25Ah!
01:02:26It's bleeding.
01:02:27It's fine.
01:02:28It's fine.
01:02:29It's fine.
01:02:30It's fine.
01:02:31It's fine.
01:02:32It's fine.
01:02:33Are you finishing that?
01:02:34Yes.
01:02:35Ah!
01:02:36Fuck.
01:02:37Ah!
01:02:38I met these backpackers last night.
01:02:49Frank and Elsa.
01:02:50She's French.
01:02:51He's German.
01:02:52They're going to Tibet.
01:02:55And I'm going with them.
01:02:59I want you to come with me.
01:03:25You're welcome.
01:03:26Oh my God...
01:03:27...
01:03:53Hi.
01:04:05Hi.
01:04:07How are you?
01:04:10I'm back at it.
01:04:11Long day.
01:04:14God, why don't they not?
01:04:17I don't think I'm a chump for doing another stint 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.
01:04:40Are you listening?
01:04:45You found the key to finishing this project.
01:04:53Well, 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.
01:05:16Why did you take such a long time to answer that?
01:05:20Because I'm sick.
01:05:22Of what, Leonard?
01:05:24Of it being so hard?
01:05:27Yes.
01:05:27Tedious?
01:05:34I hate talking about sex with you.
01:05:37Is that what we're talking about?
01:05:39Normal 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.
01:05:59So you don't feel that we're connected?
01:06:01Do you?
01:06:04I love you.
01:06:05I love you.
01:06:05I 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 and again.
01:06:55Please.
01:06:55And again.
01:06:58How does that make you feel?
01:07:00It'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.
01:07:15That's not what you want.
01:07:16Is it?
01:07:18Is that what you want?
01:07:19Because I think about it all the time.
01:07:27That the one thing you always wanted, I will never be able to give you.
01:07:41What are you trying to do, Jane?
01:07:43I just want to know that there's a reason for it all.
01:07:56You'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.
01:08:17I've been seeing someone else.
01:08:24See you.
01:08:26Caleb.
01:08:28That kid.
01:08:29Yes.
01:08:29That 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.
01:08:44Are you sleeping with him?
01:08:48What do you think?
01:08:49I kept waiting for you to see it, to smell it, to sense it.
01:08:59So what?
01:09:00I failed your test?
01:09:02You don't see me!
01:09:03You don't see me!
01:09:03I'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.
01:09:30For losing my temper, I 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.
01:09:44No.
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.
01:09:59Our training's at 4.30.
01:10:03We'll go home together.
01:10:07I want you to do what you need to do.
01:10:13And then come back to me.
01:10:17No questions asked.
01:10:19No guilt.
01:10:19No guilt.
01:10:22This is good.
01:11:49You want some?
01:12:01Oh, thanks.
01:12:33Frank and Elsa are coming over in a couple of hours.
01:12:48Frank 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
01:13:10Kazakhstan and then straight to Tibet.
01:13:14So, you know, we're going to head out in a couple of weeks or so, you know, we're going to head out in a couple of weeks.
01:13:21So, you know, we're going to head out in a couple of weeks or so, you know, we're going to head out in a couple of weeks.
01:13:35So, you know, we're going to head out in a couple of weeks or so, you know, we're going to head out in a couple of weeks.
01:13:43So, you know, we're going to head out in a couple of weeks or so, you know, we're going to head out in a couple of weeks.
01:14:13So, you know, we're going to head out in a couple of weeks.
01:14:43Jay, you've got to come over to this side, the train's going to be here in a minute.
01:15:06It's four in the morning, the end of December.
01:15:31I'm riding you now just to see if you're there.
01:15:37New York is cold, but I like where I'm living.
01:15:43There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening.
01:15:51I hear that you're building your house deep in the desert.
01:16:03Are you living for nothing now?
01:16:07Hope you're keeping some kind of record.
01:16:13Yes, and Jane came by with a lock of your hair.
01:16:23She said that you gave it to her.
01:16:29That 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?
01:16:43No, shut that thing off.
