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.
00:01:30Si, la cosa, la cosa.
00:01:33La cosa, la cosa, la cosa.
00:01:36Il mio posto.
00:01:43Shit.
00:01:45Wow.
00:01:46I camp in my wallet.
00:01:51Right in the sea case?
00:01:52No.
00:01:53I'm in the sea.
00:01:55Somewhere?
00:01:57Maybe it's in my car.
00:02:00What are you doing?
00:02:07What did you think?
00:02:08She's lost the bus.
00:02:09No, no.
00:02:10He didn't catch anything.
00:02:11He was sitting here.
00:02:12One moment.
00:02:13One moment.
00:02:15No, no.
00:02:16No, no.
00:02:17No, no.
00:02:18No, no.
00:02:19No, no, no.
00:02:20No, no, no.
00:02:21No, no, no.
00:02:22No, no, no.
00:02:23No, no, no.
00:02:24No, no, no.
00:02:25No, no, no.
00:02:26No, no, no, no.
00:02:27No, no, no.
00:02:28No, no, no.
00:02:29No, no.
00:02:30No, no.
00:02:31No, no.
00:02:32No, no.
00:02:33No, no.
00:02:34Where did you have it last?
00:02:35Um, the train station, I think?
00:02:38The exchange group?
00:02:39Shit.
00:02:40Oh, Jamie.
00:02:41I'm sorry.
00:02:42That 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?
00:02:58We need to, we need, we need sevens.
00:03:10Here we go.
00:03:20Is this it?
00:03:21Thanks, Ash.
00:03:22Thanks, Ash.
00:03:42It's nice.
00:03:44Yes, I have her credit card numbers on file on my computer.
00:03:49Yes, I have them here.
00:03:52Okay.
00:03:53Five, five, three, three.
00:03:55Seven, six, four, five.
00:03:58Eight, seven, eight, seven.
00:04:01Nine, one, five, seven.
00:04:03Five, seven.
00:04:05Yeah.
00:04:07Expires 12.15.
00:04:08No, she'll definitely need another card sent out immediately.
00:04:13We're here for two weeks.
00:04:17No, I'm working here.
00:04:21Yes, I'll hold.
00:04:24You love how they ask.
00:04:25As if I have a choice.
00:04:27Do you know what I'm going to try to do while I'm here?
00:04:29Besides, I know an Italian.
00:04:31I don't know why you think that's so ridiculous.
00:04:34I 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.
00:04:42You can't teach an old dog new tricks.
00:04:45And besides, what's the point?
00:04:47The whole bloody world speaks English.
00:04:50Well, I...
00:04:52I'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,
00:05:04I 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 sounds 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.
00:05:54Why do you think he killed himself?
00:06:08Who?
00:06:11David Foster Wallace.
00:06:15I don't know.
00:06:17You can't get a sense by his writing?
00:06:20That's what you're doing.
00:06:21I'm done, darling.
00:06:28Do you think he recognized a blank infinity just stretching out?
00:06:35He got to this point maybe where it was just day after day after day.
00:06:39I really don't know, Jen.
00:06:41Just so tedious.
00:06:43And then, 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 enough.
00:06:50Jen, can I...
00:06:51Can we not talk about this?
00:06:54Just... just... just a bit moment.
00:07:13Love you.
00:07:15Love you too.
00:07:36Do you feel alright?
00:07:38Do you feel okay?
00:07:39You feel good?
00:07:42I feel really good.
00:07:45It's worth your time.
00:07:47You feel me singing?
00:07:49He missed your time.
00:07:50He, he...
00:07:53I am so...
00:07:57Um...
00:07:59I don't know.
00:08:01What am I doing?
00:08:03You'd hang around the room?
00:08:04Let's go.
00:08:34Let's go.
00:09:04Are you sure you won't come with?
00:09:18You'll be so busy.
00:09:21We get boring all alone.
00:09:24I think someone should be here in case the card is delivered.
00:09:27True.
00:09:28Then I think I might go out, see what the world has to offer.
00:09:37If you do, leave me a message, okay?
00:09:42So I can worry about you.
00:09:44Okay.
00:09:44I've left you some money here.
00:09:54I'll see you later.
00:09:55Have a good day.
00:09:56I'll see you later.
00:10:26my book. What kind of stories? Stories that you've prepared. Or I can ask them a list of stories that
00:10:33Dad told me about. Go ahead and ask from your father's list. God rest his soul. Let's start
00:10:38with the war. We went into an air raid shelter. My mother, your great-grandmother, she was shaking.
00:10:46Sirens wailed and then there was the sound of a bomb and the man next to us, he said,
00:10:52I was in a shelter last night with my wife and my little boy and half of it got blown away.
00:10:59There was blood in his hair. He was all alone. That nearly finished my mother, you know.
00:11:08Here we were in this tiny town in England, miles from Germany, from Russia, from Italy,
00:11:13from any front lines. And this man, he had blood in his hair.
00:11:22Here we go.
00:11:27Good night, cappuccino.
00:11:41Good night.
00:11:42Good night, too.
00:11:42Good night.
00:11:43Good night.
00:11:44Khloe, um...
00:11:46His cat.
00:11:47Good night, too.
00:11:48Good night.
00:11:48That's it.
00:11:49We 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.
00:12:09It feels now as if I'm the only one who remembers that.
00:12:13It's as vivid to me as if it happened yesterday.
00:12:15Oh, hi, Leonard.
00:12:20It's Jane.
00:12:21I decided to take an impromptu trip to Iskia.
00:12:24Or, 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.
00:12:35Bye.
00:12:36Those friends are all dead now.
00:12:39There's no one left.
00:12:41That's one of my regrets, you know.
00:12:42Sometimes 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.
00:13:04You want to ask me more boring questions about the war?
00:13:08All right, then.
00:13:08Uh, scusi, scusi, um, the castle, castle, parlato inglese?
00:13:18No, no, no.
00:13:19No?
00:13:19No.
00:13:20Um, castello, oreganese?
00:13:23Ah, andare.
00:13:25Andare?
00:13:26Andare?
00:13:26Si.
00:13:26Ah, grazie.
00:13:27I'm actually going there now, to the castle.
00:13:52Do you 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.
00:14:16Oh.
00:14:20Sorry.
00:14:20I thought you were saying you were on vacation.
00:14:22Me, no.
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?
00:14:44Yes.
00:14:45Very.
00:14:49How do you keep your violin from getting stolen?
00:14:52You put it in a viola case.
00:14:55Right?
00:14:58That's not funny.
00:14:59Um, what'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?
00:15:07You know, why is a viola solo like premature ejaculation?
00:15:12Because 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 10, and I played the triangle.
00:15:25Right.
00:15:26And I'm an only child, so, you know, understand.
00:15:31You look too young to be married.
00:15:33You newlywed?
00:15:34No.
00:15:36No.
00:15:36You're making me feel like a stalker.
00:15:49Fuck.
00:15:56Oh, hey, have you got 50 cents?
00:16:03If you can catch it.
00:16:07Grazie.
00:16:10Grazie.
00:16:26What 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.
00:16:44They lock you in there until you turn up bones.
00:16:48Can you imagine dying by just sitting there?
00:16:50That would suck.
00:16:56In, like, the 1300s, thousands of families lived in this castle.
00:17:02It doesn't smell pretty bad.
00:17:04All those people crammed onto this rock.
00:17:09Wow.
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.
00:17:19You're a tourist.
00:17:21No, I'm not.
00:17:23I came out here a few months ago with this volunteer organization dedicated to studying
00:17:29the relic populations of dolphins and whales in the Gulf of Naples.
00:17:34I can't tell if you're joking.
00:17:36I'm dead fucking serious.
00:17:38You know, I just didn't want to go to college and they paid for me to come over.
00:17:43Four connecting flights is a 72-hour plane ride, but, you know, it was worth it.
00:17:46My first time out of the U.S.
00:17:48How old are you?
00:17:49I'm 19.
00:17:50It'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
00:18:10twice removed.
00:18:11The second cousin twice removed, in case you didn't know, is when one person's great-grandparent
00:18:15is 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,
00:18:24so I show up, he answers the door, and he's like the oldest fucker I've ever seen, easily
00:18:29pushing a hundred.
00:18:30A hundred?
00:18:31Yeah, if not older, he's like deaf and blind and about four feet tall, and he mumbles
00:18:36a couple of things to me in some crazy dialect, ushers me inside, pours me a glass of wine,
00:18:41and leads me to this basement apartment, and, uh, yeah, I never left.
00:18:46I think for sure, it's all the time.
00:18:48Yeah.
00:18:49Yeah.
00:18:50Yeah.
00:18:51Yeah.
00:18:52Yeah.
00:18:53Yeah.
00:18:54Yeah.
00:18:55Yeah.
00:18:56Yeah.
00:18:57Yeah.
00:18:58Yeah.
00:18:59Yeah.
00:19:00I love you.
00:19:30Love 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?
00:20:09Sneaky.
00:20:10Yeah, I've decided to learn Italian by committing to memory all the sonnets she wrote to Michelangelo
00:20:15in 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.
00:20:29In Italian.
00:20:30Let's hear the poem.
00:20:31Come on.
00:20:32Okay.
00:20:33Okay.
00:20:34Come on.
00:20:35Okay.
00:20:36I'm impressed.
00:20:38I'm impressed.
00:20:40Are you hungry?
00:20:41Are you hungry?
00:20:42Why are you going to take me out?
00:20:43Why are you going to take me out?
00:20:44Yeah.
00:20:45Why are you going to take me out?
00:20:46Yeah.
00:20:47Why are you going to take me out?
00:20:48Yeah.
00:20:49All right then.
00:20:50Okay.
00:20:51Okay.
00:20:52Okay.
00:20:53Okay.
00:20:54Okay.
00:20:55Two pastas, we're going to take me out.
00:20:56Okay.
00:20:57Two pastas with the house sauce on and with he's an old wife,
00:20:58a house on the floor, and he's a little old wife.
00:20:59He's an old wife, a house on the floor, and he's an old wife who doesn't come in the
00:21:00house.
00:21:01Yeah.
00:21:02How am I going to take me out?
00:21:03Whew!
00:21:05I'm impressed.
00:21:08You hungry?
00:21:10Why, you gonna take me out?
00:21:12Yeah.
00:21:18Alright then.
00:21:19Okay.
00:21:24Two pastas with the house sauce, please.
00:21:27Red.
00:21:28Red, please.
00:21:30Uh-huh.
00:21:31Grazie.
00:21:33So 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.
00:21:46There's something else.
00:21:54I'm writing a book about my grandmother's experiences in rural England, living through two world wars.
00:22:01I recorded her for hours and hours.
00:22:04But now...
00:22:07I don't know.
00:22:09What don't you know?
00:22:12You wanna listen?
00:22:13A little?
00:22:15Yeah.
00:22:16Yeah?
00:22:17No.
00:22:18I love to listen.
00:22:34All tangled up.
00:22:35Hold on.
00:22:36Okay.
00:22:37Awful as it was, it made you stronger.
00:22:44These days people whine about all sorts of things.
00:22:48I'm not one of those old people who think my time had the only joy and the only problems.
00:22:52We all have our own private wars, every era, but it was nothing like...
00:22:59It really brought people together, the war.
00:23:01We...
00:23:02We helped each other during that time.
00:23:05We had to laugh.
00:23:06We had to smile.
00:23:07Well, if not for ourselves, then for the people we'd lost.
00:23:11I'll shut that thing off.
00:23:13Would 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?
00:23:27My husband thinks I'm never gonna finish it.
00:23:30I shouldn't care what anyone thinks.
00:23:32We met while I was recording her.
00:23:35Bonding 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.
00:24:01I lost the baby.
00:24:05I'm sorry.
00:24:09It was a naive of your time.
00:24:14Yes, thanks.
00:24:16Yes, thank you.
00:24:17It has been a littlePE!
00:24:19Yes, thank you.
00:24:20Yes, thank you.
00:24:29I didn't go back after that to the States.
00:24:30Did you ever hear that story about the red string?
00:24:40I think I might have. Tell me.
00:24:48It's like this Asian proverb says that anyone you're destined to meet like your soulmate or your family or, you know,
00:24:59someone you bump into on the street. We're all connected by this red string.
00:25:08It can be tangled or stretched, 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.
00:25:24And 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.
00:25:36But...
00:25:46I don't know if it's that interesting.
00:25:49That's the whole point, isn't it?
00:25:52Keeping it interesting for yourself.
00:25:54Maybe.
00:26:00Maybe I just want to write about nothing.
00:26:03Everything is nothing.
00:26:06All the best.
00:26:08Grazie.
00:26:09Grazie.
00:26:13Make a wish.
00:26:14Oh, yeah.
00:26:15Make it great.
00:26:21Okay.
00:26:25Bravo.
00:26:26Bravo.
00:26:27Hey.
00:26:36What do you mean?
00:26:37What?
00:26:38Grab my hand.
00:26:39Wait.
00:26:40Oh, my God.
00:26:41Oh, my God.
00:26:42Oh, my God.
00:26:43Oh, my God.
00:26:44Oh, no.
00:26:45What?
00:26:46What do you mean?
00:26:53Hey.
00:26:54Hey.
00:26:55Hey.
00:26:56It's the carabinerary.
00:26:57Hey, please.
00:26:58Hey.
00:26:59Yeah.
00:27:00Yeah.
00:27:01Yeah.
00:27:02Hey.
00:27:04We can't go back.
00:27:05We can't go back.
00:27:06Hey.
00:27:07We can't go back.
00:27:08Hey.
00:27:09Hey.
00:27:10Hey.
00:27:11Hey, I'm going over.
00:27:12Oh, God.
00:27:13Okay.
00:27:14Wow.
00:27:15Oh, God.
00:27:17Hey.
00:27:17Oh, God.
00:27:18Hey.
00:27:19Hey.
00:27:20Hey.
00:27:21Hey, hey.
00:27:22Hey Oh.
00:27:23Hey.
00:27:24Hey?
00:27:25Hey.
00:27:26Hey.
00:27:27Hey.
00:27:28It'd make you feel better if I said I said the whole thing up.
00:27:30Yes.
00:27:31It's true.
00:27:33Yes, it's true.
00:27:34I made the check when I went to the bathroom.
00:27:40You'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 why we're still running.
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.
00:28:34For cheap thrills and future crimes committed.
00:28:37No.
00:28:41Fair 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.
00:30:50You're awake.
00:30:52Yeah, I've got so much of this stuff to get through.
00:30:56Got through.
00:30:58Nice.
00:31:20Nellie was this little collie who wouldn't go on a leash, so she had to sit on a bicycle seat.
00:31:27They stay with me, too.
00:31:29Jane.
00:31:41Janey.
00:31:42Got some pastries.
00:31:46You're still asleep?
00:31:54Jane.

00:32:47Janey.
00:32:48Janey.
00:32:49leave my mom and dad. I wish I had sometimes.
00:32:54You know when you were 19 and the world just felt so open
00:32:57and carefree and full of possibility?
00:33:01You reminded me of that. At that time.
00:33:06You were 19 when we met? Yeah. I wouldn't have described you
00:33:09as carefree back then. Not at all. Well, I felt nostalgia.
00:33:14Or something. For youth. You're not old, Jane.
00:33:17You? We ran out on the bill.
00:33:21You 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. It was just fun.
00:33:41How was work?
00:33:43The conductor is actually a descendant of Walter Lippe,
00:33:46which is fascinating.
00:33:48The three of us were planning dinner before we leave.
00:33:51I'd like that.
00:33:56Jane?
00:33:59Oh, my God.
00:34:00This is Caleb.
00:34:03Hi. No, no, we were just talking about you.
00:34:05We were? That's so weird.
00:34:07Sit, please. Sit down. Join us.
00:34:10What?
00:34:13You have a chance of a wreck.
00:34:14I know, right?
00:34:19I'm actually going to get back pretty soon.
00:34:21That's okay. I already ate, so I'll just grab a coffee.
00:34:25Can I have the check, please?
00:34:37In a cafe, play for play?
00:34:43Oh, no, thank you.
00:34:48Jane,
00:34:48You 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.
00:35:02Okay.
00:35:02Grazie.
00:35:05Grazie.
00:35:09Italian 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
00:35:23in this villa owned by this old, drunk expat.
00:35:27They had, like, a private chef and everything.
00:35:30And they were serving this, like, loaf of meat
00:35:33covered 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 aunt.
00:36:02Come on.
00:36:03Let's hear one.
00:36:08Um...
00:36:09I have one.
00:36:12What is the definition
00:36:13of perfect pitch?
00:36:17What?
00:36:20When you throw a viola into the dumpster
00:36:23without hitting the rim.
00:36:26You didn't just make that up.
00:36:27I did.
00:36:27It's too good.
00:36:28I did.
00:36:29Well, I'm impressed and I'm stealing it.
00:36:30You can pretty much make that joke about any instrument.
00:36:39Do you play anything, Caleb?
00:36:40This and that, you know.
00:36:44Shall we?
00:36:45Yeah.
00:36:46What, time to go?
00:36:47Already?
00:36:48Yeah, I've got to get back to work.
00:36:50Hmm.
00:36:51Hmm.
00:37:00So what's next on your agenda, Caleb?
00:37:03Um, I'm thinking Tibet.
00:37:06Oh, Tibet.
00:37:07Really?
00:37:07Yeah, there's this thing called the Shantan Festival
00:37:09at the end of the summer.
00:37:10Yeah, I've heard about that.
00:37:11That's where the Buddhist monks
00:37:13unroll all the tapestries on the hill, right?
00:37:16The monks, the monks, the monks.
00:37:17It's so pretty.
00:37:18How do you support yourself?
00:37:21You know, a bit of this, a bit of that.
00:37:28Oh, all right then.
00:37:30I'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.
00:37:48I have a piece of paper.
00:37:50You guys should definitely come over to the island.
00:37:53I'll take you somewhere fun, you know.
00:37:55Don't knock on the front door.
00:37:56Come around the side.
00:37:57I need Regina.
00:38:00Vistia.
00:38:02There you go.
00:38:06And thanks again for yesterday.
00:38:08No problem.
00:38:10Okay.
00:38:13Ciao.
00:38:18How stoned are you?
00:38:23Come on, man.
00:38:24We should tell him a pub.
00:38:24It's not a big deal.
00:38:27So you're saying
00:38:29you smoke back at her?
00:38:31Occasionally.
00:38:32Can we do something fun tonight?
00:38:35Sure.
00:38:38I'm fine from here.
00:38:41Okay.
00:38:41See you after work.
00:38:42Yep.
00:38:43I'll be waiting.
00:38:48God, you scared me.
00:39:16Are you following me?
00:39:19Maybe.
00:39:20Is that weird?
00:39:22Yeah.
00:39:31I couldn't sleep last night.
00:39:36You told me you were staying near the port,
00:39:38so I got the first ferry this morning.
00:39:41I came looking for you.
00:39:44And I can't believe I found you.
00:39:46I got the first ferry,
00:39:46I got the first ferry,
00:39:46so I got the first ferry.
00:40:13I got the first ferry.
00:40:14What are we doing?
00:40:29I think we'll make it out.
00:40:33So sexy and beautiful.
00:40:44I can't do this.
00:41:09What?
00:41:10Why?
00:41:11I can't do this.
00:41:12Do you do this a lot?
00:41:24What?
00:41:25Do you do this a lot?
00:41:27What?
00:41:28Do you seduce women?
00:41:29Is this what you do?
00:41:31You need to be less serious.
00:41:37Don't follow me.
00:41:39Don't follow me.
00:41:40Don't follow me.
00:41:44Don't follow me.
00:41:51Hey.
00:42:26There was one boy from Belgium.
00:42:48He was lovely.
00:42:50He had a moustache.
00:42:52My mother hated moustaches.
00:42:54But 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.
00:43:15I do deserve that.
00:43:29Can I just move for a husband?
00:43:36Jenny, I'm sorry.
00:43:37Just give me a minute.
00:43:38I have a hell of a rest of my bed.
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.
00:43:59I'm sorry.
00:43:59I'm sorry.
00:44:29Leonard, can we talk?
00:44:59Say 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?
00:46:09Do you want me to hand over my mouth?
00:46:11You did?
00:46:12What did you do?
00:46:13Just wave.
00:46:14Come on.
00:46:15Come on.
00:46:17Come on.
00:46:18Come on.
00:46:20Come on.
00:46:22Let's go.
00:46:52I didn't die!
00:47:22I didn't die!
00:47:52I didn't die!
00:48:22I didn't die!
00:48:52Oh!
00:48:58Hi!
00:49:00Did I wake you?
00:49:02No.
00:49:04I think I need to be less serious.
00:49:08Yeah.
00:49:10Will you put my pants on?
00:49:12Okay.
00:49:22Good morning.
00:49:24I'm going to show you how to use me.
00:49:31I'm going to show you how to use me.
00:49:35Okay.
00:49:44Okay.
00:49:46Come on.
00:52:52You said that?
00:52:57Were you?
00:52:58They were 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.
00:53:50You make me feel calm.
00:53:54You make me feel calm.
00:53:58You make me feel calm.
00:54:07You make me feel calm.
00:54:09You make me feel calm.
00:54:10Is that him?
00:54:12Yeah, he just shuffled around all night.
00:54:17Must be lonely.
00:54:40Yeah, he just shuffled around all night.
00:54:45Okay.
00:55:47I didn't sleep at all last night.
00:56:14Where have you been?
00:56:17Just walking.
00:56:19All night.
00:56:21I've been thinking.
00:56:23You left your phone here. I had to plug it in.
00:56:27We 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.
00:56:44I've committed myself.
00:56:46People are depending on me.
00:56:48I have to go to work.
00:56:49Okay.
00:56:52Okay.
00:56:53Come on.
00:57:02Okay.
00:57:03Good night.
00:57:04Good night.
00:57:04I see.
00:57:06Good night.
00:57:07Good night.
00:57:07Good night.
00:57:07Good night.
00:57:08Good night.
00:57:10If 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.
00:57:40I'm going to make some tea. Do you want some?
00:57:52I'm all right.
00:57:59If you go out like that again, just tell me.
00:58:03No worry.
00:58:05Okay.
00:58:06I can't seem to figure out what's going on in your head.
00:58:11Do you think everything we've been through actually does us any good in the long run?
00:58:31Or do we just make out struggle to be something meaningful because that's all most of us have?
00:58:39Tell 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.
00:59:27If one little thing had changed in my grandmother's life, I might not be here.
00:59:39Sometimes I worry I'm not honoring her.
00:59:43With the book?
00:59:44No, with my life.
00:59:55This is it, you know.
00:59:57It ends with me.
00:59:58In the harvest time, we all went to the field where they were cutting the corn.
01:00:11Everyone was chasing rabbits.
01:00:13Then we had our tea in the harvest fields.
01:00:20The horses.
01:00:21Yeah.
01:00:28The horses back then, they were kept beautifully.
01:00:32Dad used to dress them all up.
01:00:34Brass things and little horseshoes.
01:00:38He put braids on them.
01:00:40They used to be gorgeous.
01:00:42What are your plans for tomorrow?
01:00:46There was one.
01:00:48Duke.
01:00:49Duke.
01:00:50He 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.
01:01:11Jane.
01:01:13But not for you.
01:01:14Jane.
01:01:16You 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.
01:01:30You've got to make your own life.
01:01:33One that you love and you can't be afraid of the...
01:01:36of the time.
01:01:40Time is shiftable.
01:01:45There 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.
01:02:05Oh, sorry.
01:02:06It's okay.
01:02:07Ah!
01:02:09Ah!
01:02:10What is it?
01:02:11Ah!
01:02:12Ah!
01:02:13What is it?
01:02:14Ah!
01:02:16Ah!
01:02:17Ah!
01:02:18Ah!
01:02:19Ah!
01:02:20You all right?
01:02:21Ah!
01:02:22You okay?
01:02:23Yeah.
01:02:24Stom my toe.
01:02:26Ah!
01:02:27It's bleeding.
01:02:28Ah!
01:02:29It's fine.
01:02:30It's fine.
01:02:31It's fine.
01:02:32It's fine.
01:02:33It's fine.
01:02:34You losing it?
01:02:35Yes.
01:02:36Ah!
01:02:37Fuck.
01:02:38I met these backpackers last night, Frank 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.
01:03:08You can see you in those temples.
01:03:13You sure?
01:03:14I don't know.
01:03:15Mm-hmm.
01:03:18You've got the Users on the whereby.
01:03:22Can you touch your legs?
01:03:25No.
01:03:26I just palabras.
01:03:30Any surface mountains draw this?
01:03:33No.
01:03:35I don't know how you feel.
01:03:36Hi.
01:04:06How are you?
01:04:10Long day.
01:04:14I don't think I'd chance to do another stint like this.
01:04:23How'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.
01:04:42Are you listening?
01:04:45You found the key to finishing this project?
01:04:48Well, the water here tastes so funny.
01:04:58Have you ever cheated on me?
01:05:04Oh, Jane.
01:05:05Have you?
01:05:06Can we not?
01:05:08Have you?
01:05:09Absolutely not.
01:05:10Why did you take such a long time to answer that?
01:05:19Because I'm sick.
01:05:21Of what, Leonard?
01:05:23Of it being so hard?
01:05:26Yes.
01:05:27Tedious?
01:05:34I 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.
01:05:48Like what?
01:05:50Is there anything you want to ask me?
01:05:52Why?
01:05:53Is there anything you want to tell me?
01:05:54I just want to connect.
01:05:56So you don't feel that we're connected?
01:06:00Do 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.
01:06:27That's not what I'm saying.
01:06:28You're just...
01:06:29Do 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...
01:06:40Say it.
01:06:42Jane...
01:06:43Say it.
01:06:45I can't have children, Leonard.
01:06:49I never will.
01:06:50And if we keep trying, they keep dying.
01:06:53Again and again.
01:06:54Please, Jane.
01:06:55Please.
01:06:56And again.
01:06:57Please.
01:06:58How does that make you feel?
01:07:04It's not your fault.
01:07:05How does it make you feel, Leonard?
01:07:07How does it make you feel?
01:07:09You will never be a father.
01:07:10We can adopt.
01:07:11That's not what you want.
01:07:12Is it?
01:07:13Is that what you want?
01:07:14Hmm?
01:07:15Because I think about it all the time.
01:07:16That the one thing you always wanted, I will never be able to give you.
01:07:29What are you trying to do, Jane?
01:07:30I just want to know that there's a reason for it all.
01:07:44You're not curious about me, Leonard.
01:07:58Not really.
01:07:59What do you want me to know?
01:08:00You shouldn't have to ask.
01:08:01I feel as if you want me to be someone I'm not.
01:08:08Someone that I've never been.
01:08:11I'm leaving you.
01:08:14I've been seeing someone else.
01:08:24See him.
01:08:26Caleb.
01:08:27That kid?
01:08:28Yes.
01:08:29That kid?
01:08:30That child?
01:08:31That kid you've known for two days?
01:08:33It's been longer than that.
01:08:34Please tell me you're joking.
01:08:36Time is shiftable.
01:08:38I don't get it.
01:08:39Leonard.
01:08:40He's asked me to travel with him.
01:08:43Are you sleeping with him?
01:08:47What do you think?
01:08:55I kept waiting for you to see it, to smell it, to sense it!
01:08:59So what?
01:09:00I failed your test?
01:09:01You don't see me!
01:09:10I'm sorry.
01:09:11For what?
01:09:12I'm sorry.
01:09:13For what?
01:09:14I shouldn't have done that.
01:09:15No.
01:09:16For losing my temper.
01:09:17I shouldn't have done that.
01:09:18No.
01:09:19You had every right to lose your temper!
01:09:20No, no, no, no.
01:09:21If you think that this is what's going to make you feel better, then you should go.
01:09:25You should go with him.
01:09:26You've been through a terrible, terrible thing, Jane.
01:09:27No.
01:09:28That is not what this is about.
01:09:29Of course it is.
01:09:30You don't love me anymore, Leonard!
01:09:31You don't love me!
01:09:32That's rubbish!
01:09:33This is your ticket.
01:09:34The day after my performance, meet me at the train station.
01:09:35Our train is at 4.30.
01:09:36We'll go home and see you at the train station.
01:09:37We'll go home and see you at the train station.
01:09:38If you think that this is what's going to make you feel better, then you should go.
01:09:39You should go.
01:09:40You should go with him.
01:09:41You've been through a terrible, terrible thing, Jane.
01:09:42No.
01:09:43That is not what this is about.
01:09:44Of course it is.
01:09:45You don't love me anymore, Leonard!
01:09:46You don't love me!
01:09:47That's rubbish!
01:09:48This is your ticket.
01:09:49The day after my performance, meet me at the train station.
01:10:02Our train is 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, no guilt.
01:10:22This is good.
01:10:33I want you to do.
01:10:35We have a feeling.
01:10:36We'll go home together.
01:10:37We are back.
01:10:38We can't move together.
01:10:39Our train station, they're all around us.
01:10:42We'll come back to you.
01:10:43We'll come back to you.
01:10:44We are back to you.
01:11:46Hi.
01:11:48You want some?
01:12:02Oh, thanks.
01:12:44Frank 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
01:13:10Kazakhstan and then straight to Tibet.
01:13:13We're going to head out in a couple of hours.
01:14:55You've got to come over to this side.
01:15:00The train's going to be here in a minute.
01:15:25It'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.
01:15:43There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening.
01:15:51I hear that you're building your house deep in the desert.
01:16:00Are you living for nothing now?
01:16:06Hope 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.
01:16:44All the last...
