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.
00:01:30The traffic of Napoli.
00:01:33I can't buy the men.
00:01:34In this is the first place.
00:01:44Shit.
00:01:45Woah.
00:01:46Camp on my wallet.
00:01:51Are we in the seat place?
00:01:52No.
00:01:53No, no, no, it's not missing.
00:01:55It's not with the seat.
00:01:56So it's somewhere.
00:01:57Maybe it's in the car.
00:02:00She went hard.
00:02:01She said, what?
00:02:03She's lost.
00:02:05She lost her purse.
00:02:08Her purse.
00:02:10No.
00:02:11She's lost her purse.
00:02:13Her purse.
00:02:14No.
00:02:15No nothing.
00:02:16He didn't have anything.
00:02:18Didn't tell her.
00:02:20Can I just give her a minute?
00:02:21No.
00:02:22Just give her a minute.
00:02:24Just give her a minute.
00:02:25I'm gonna have to.
00:02:26No I don't.
00:02:27In my head.
00:02:28Where did you have it last?
00:02:35The train station, I think? The exchange booth?
00:02:39Oh, Jamie. I'm sorry.
00:02:43That bastard at the train station started when you dropped all your stuff.
00:02:50This is 170, not 70.
00:02:55Where do we need to go?
00:02:57We need, we need, we need 70.
00:03:09Here we go.
00:03:19Is this it?
00:03:21Thanks, man.
00:03:24Yes, I have a credit card. Numbers on file on my computer.
00:03:36Yes, I have them here.
00:03:50Okay.
00:03:52Five, five, three, three.
00:03:54Seven, six, four, five.
00:03:58Eight, seven, eight, seven.
00:04:00Nine, one, five, seven.
00:04:02Five, seven.
00:04:04Yeah.
00:04:06Expires 12.15.
00:04:08No, she'll definitely need another card sent out immediately. We're here for two weeks.
00:04:14No, I'm working here.
00:04:16No, I'm working here.
00:04:20Yes, I'll hold.
00:04:22You love how they ask.
00:04:24As if I have a choice.
00:04:26Do you know what I'm gonna try to do while I'm here?
00:04:28Besides, I know an Italian.
00:04:30I don't know why you think that's so ridiculous.
00:04:32I don't at all.
00:04:34I admire you.
00:04:36I just think it's too late for me.
00:04:38That's not true.
00:04:40You can't teach an old dog new tricks.
00:04:44Besides, what's the point?
00:04:46The whole bloody world speaks English.
00:04:48Well, I...
00:04:50Want to finally transcribe the tapes?
00:04:54Yes.
00:04:56All right.
00:04:58Okay.
00:05:00Well, if you can see it through to the end, I think that's wonderful.
00:05:04What does that mean?
00:05:06Nothing.
00:05:08Nothing.
00:05:10Nothing.
00:05:12I think it's a fantastic idea, Jane.
00:05:15I always have.
00:05:16You know that?
00:05:20You shouldn'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.
00:05:35I think enough time has passed.
00:05:37Well, that's great.
00:05:38Yeah.
00:05:39Why do you think he killed himself?
00:05:42Who?
00:05:43David Foster Wallace.
00:05:44David Foster Wallace.
00:05:45Um...
00:05:46Um...
00:05:47Um...
00:05:48Um...
00:05:49Um...
00:05:50I don't know.
00:05:51I don't know.
00:05:52You can't get a sense by his writing.
00:05:53You have to read it when I'm done, don't I?
00:05:54You have to read it when I'm done, don't I?
00:05:55Um...
00:05:56Um...
00:05:57Um...
00:05:58Um...
00:05:59Um...
00:06:00Um...
00:06:01Um...
00:06:02I don't know.
00:06:03You can't get a sense by his writing?
00:06:04You have to read it when I'm done, don't I?
00:06:05Um...
00:06:06Um...
00:06:07Um...
00:06:08Um...
00:06:09Um...
00:06:10Um...
00:06:11Um...
00:06:12Um...
00:06:13Um...
00:06:14Um...
00:06:15I don't know.
00:06:16Um...
00:06:17Um...
00:06:18Um...
00:06:19Um...
00:06:20Um...
00:06:21Um...
00:06:22Um...
00:06:23Um...
00:06:24Um...
00:06:25Um...
00:06:26Um...
00:06:27Um...
00:06:28Um...
00:06:29Um...
00:06:30Um...
00:06:31Um...
00:06:32What are you doing?
00:06:33That's what I love.
00:06:34You have to read it when I'm done, don't I?
00:06:36Um...
00:06:37Um...
00:06:38Um...
00:06:39Um...
00:06:40Uh...
00:06:40Um...
00:06:41Did you know what I'm doing?
00:06:42Um...
00:06:43Um...
00:06:44Um...
00:06:45Most people think life is too short, and there he was,
00:06:47all the talent in the world, and it wasn't enough.
00:06:49Jane, can I... Can we not talk about this?
00:06:53Just... Just a bit more than...
00:07:11Love you.
00:07:15Love you too.
00:07:35Do you feel alright?
00:07:37Do you feel okay?
00:07:38Yeah.
00:07:40Are you sure?
00:07:45Mm-hmm.
00:07:47Do, do...
00:07:49...
00:07:50Do, do.
00:07:51Do, do.
00:07:53Do, do, do.
00:07:55Do, do.
00:08:57Are 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.
00:09:37If you do, leave me a message, okay?
00:09:39So 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.
00:09:56I'll see you later.
00:10:26I'll see you later.
00:10:28What kind of stories?
00:10:30Stories that you've prepared for, I can ask them a list of stories that Dad told me about.
00:10:34Go ahead and ask from your father's list, God rest his soul.
00:10:37Let's start with the war.
00:10:38We went into an air raid shelter.
00:10:42My mother, your great-grandmother, she was shaking.
00:10:46Sirens wailed and then there was the sound of a bomb.
00:10:50And 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.
00:10:58There was blood in his hair.
00:11:02He was all alone.
00:11:03That nearly finished my mother, you know.
00:11:08Here we were in this tiny town in England, miles from Germany, from Russia, from Italy, from any front lines.
00:11:14And this man, he had blood in his hair.
00:11:19Good night.
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.
00:12:35Those 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.
00:12:48You'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?
00:13:06All right, then.
00:13:10Uh, scusi.
00:13:12Scusi.
00:13:13Um, the castle?
00:13:15Castle?
00:13:16Parlato anglese?
00:13:18No, no, no.
00:13:19No?
00:13:19No.
00:13:20Um, castello oregonese?
00:13:24Ah, andare.
00:13:25Andare?
00:13:26Andare?
00:13:26Si.
00:13:26Ah, grazie.
00:13:27Yeah.
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
00:13:40German 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,
00:13:50now 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!
00:13:58That'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?
00:14:13No.
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.
00:14:25My husband is working in Naples.
00:14:29What does he do?
00:14:30He is playing in a concert at the end of the night.
00:14:34Cool.
00:14:36What does he play?
00:14:37Viola.
00:14:38Mm-mm-mm.
00:14:40The viola.
00:14:41Any good?
00:14:43Yes.
00:14:45Very.
00:14:45Very.
00:14:45Very.
00:14:48How do you keep your violin from getting stolen?
00:14:51You put it in a viola case.
00:14:55Right?
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.
00:15:31You look too young to be married.
00:15:32You newlywed?
00:15:34No.
00:15:36No.
00:15:36No.
00:15:47Stop making me feel like a stalker.
00:15:49Fuck!
00:15:59One?
00:15:59Five.
00:16:02Oh, hey, have you got 50 cents?
00:16:06I don't know if you can catch it.
00:16:10That's it.
00:16:34What brought you out of here today?
00:16:36Ha!
00:16:37Barry.
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 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.
00:17:02It doesn't smell pretty bad.
00:17:04All those people crammed under this rock.
00:17:10Wow.
00:17:11I know.
00:17:12I've been coming here every day and it still gets me.
00:17:16If only we could kill off all the tourists.
00:17:18You're a tourist.
00:17:20You're a tourist.
00:17:21No, I'm not.
00:17:24I came out here a few months ago with this volunteer organization dedicated to studying the relic populations of dolphins and whales in the Gulf of Naples.
00:17:33I can't tell if you're joking.
00:17:35I'm dead fucking serious.
00:17:37You know, I just didn't want to go to college and they paid for me to come over.
00:17:42Before connecting flights, a 72-hour plane ride.
00:17:44But, you know, it was worth it.
00:17:46My first time out of the U.S.
00:17:47How old are you?
00:17:48I'm 19.
00:17:49It's my birthday today.
00:17:50Is it really?
00:17:51Uh-huh.
00:17:52Happy birthday.
00:17:53Thank you very much.
00:17:54Yeah, so I left the program after, like, a month.
00:17:58Fuck the relic dolphins!
00:18:00I'll just say it on the other end because I have this awesome living situation.
00:18:04I'll tell you the short version.
00:18:05Basically, I used to have ancestors in Ischia, so when I come over I Facebook this second cousin twice removed.
00:18:10The 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.
00:19:06We'll see you in the end of the night.
00:19:08I'm sorry.
00:19:13I know you're welcome.
00:19:16We're welcome.
00:19:17We're welcome.
00:19:18We're welcome.
00:19:19I'm back up.
00:19:21We're welcome.
00:19:22We're welcome.
00:19:23Love 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.
00:19:57Who is that?
00:19:59Vittoria Colonna.
00:20:02The woman who lived here.
00:20:05You read that in your guidebook this morning, didn't you, Jane? Sneaky.
00:20:11Yeah, I've decided to learn Italian by committing to memory all the sonnets she wrote to Michelangelo in English and Italian.
00:20:18Michelangelo is gay.
00:20:19Ah, according to history and the muscular thighs of his sculptures, yes, but that didn't stop her from loving him.
00:20:27Let's hear it then. In Italian. Let's hear the poem. Come on.
00:20:36I'm impressed.
00:20:37I'm impressed.
00:20:39Are you hungry?
00:20:40Are you hungry?
00:20:41Yeah.
00:20:42I'm impressed.
00:20:44Are you hungry?
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.
00:20:50All right.
00:20:51All right, then.
00:20:52Okay.
00:20:53Okay.
00:20:54All right, then.

00:21:18Okay.

00:21:24Red.
00:21:25Red.
00:21:26Red, please.
00:21:27Uh-huh.
00:21:30Uh-huh.
00:21:32Grazie.
00:21:33So you're really not going to 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.
00:21:54I'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...
00:22:05I don't know.
00:22:07What don't you know?
00:22:10You want to listen?
00:22:12A little?
00:22:13Yeah.
00:22:14Yeah?
00:22:15Yeah, I know it.
00:22:16I love to listen.
00:22:18I love to listen.
00:22:34Well, it's 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.
00:22:47And I'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 it.
00:22:59It really brought people together, the war.
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?
00:23:26My 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.
00:23:43Buongiorno.
00:23:44Signori?
00:23:53I got pregnant, so we got married.
00:24:01I lost the baby.
00:24:05I'm sorry.
00:24:07I didn't go back after that to the States.
00:24:32I'm sorry.
00:24:37Did you, uh...
00:24:38Did you ever hear that story about the Red Strain?
00:24:43I think I might have.
00:24:44Tell me.
00:24:45It's like this Asian proverb says that anyone you're destined to meet, like your soulmate, or your family, or, you know, someone you bump into on the street, we're all connected by this red string.
00:25:06It can be tangled or stretched, but it can never be broken.
00:25:16There's this moment in the tape.
00:25:17I'm sitting, waiting in the airport bar for my flight, and 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?
00:25:48Keeping it interesting for yourself.
00:25:49Maybe.
00:25:50Maybe I just want to write about nothing.
00:25:51Everything is nothing.
00:25:52All the best.
00:25:53Compliano?
00:25:54Yes.
00:25:55Grazie.
00:25:56That's it.
00:25:57Make a wish, uh.
00:25:58Make it great.
00:26:00OK.
00:26:02Everything is nothing.
00:26:06All the best.
00:26:08Grazie.
00:26:09That's it.
00:26:12Make a wish.
00:26:16Make it great.
00:26:21Okay.
00:26:25Bravo.
00:26:26Bravo.
00:26:27Bravo.
00:26:32What do you mean I'm ready to go?
00:26:37What?
00:26:38Grab my hand.
00:26:39Wait, go, go, go.
00:26:40Oh, my God.
00:26:41Oh, my gosh.
00:26:42Oh, my gosh.
00:26:43Oh, my gosh.
00:26:44Oh, no.
00:26:45What?
00:26:46What do you mean?
00:26:54It's the carabinieri.
00:26:56It's the police.
00:26:57No.
00:26:58No.
00:26:59No.
00:27:00No.
00:27:01No.
00:27:02We can't go back.
00:27:05If we go back and do you want to be sick, look.
00:27:11Oh, my gosh.
00:27:12Hey.
00:27:15There we go.
00:27:16Oh, my God.
00:27:17Come here.
00:27:18Come here.
00:27:27I think it would be better because I said, no, no young.
00:27:31Yes, it's true.
00:27:33Yes, it's true.
00:27:35I 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.
00:28:01Oh, my gosh.
00:28:14What about my nose?
00:28:20We come back?
00:28:23Maybe.
00:28:26Maybe it's not a no.
00:28:28And 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
00:29:08on their dashboards?
00:29:19Why?
00:29:23So they can park in handicapped spots.
00:29:25Happy birthday.
00:29:37God bless you.
00:30:07God bless you.
00:30:37God bless you.
00:30:47Are you awake?
00:30:52Yeah, I've got so much of this stuff to get through.
00:30:56Got through.
00:30:58Nice.
00:31:03There are the great big events.
00:31:05The things you think you'll always remember, and you do, but there are other smaller.
00:31:11Picking a blackberry that's been in the sun, or brushing the fingertip of someone you didn't know you loved until you touched them.
00:31:18Nellie 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.
00:31:41Jane.
00:31:42Janey.
00:31:43Got some pastries.
00:31:47You're still asleep?
00:31:52Jane.
00:31:54My friends had lots of American boyfriends,
00:32:10and they used to bring us nylon stockings and chocolates and all sorts of things.
00:32:26And 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...
00:32:45I didn't want to leave my mom and dad.
00:32:52I wish I had sometimes.
00:32:54You know when you were 19, and the world just felt so open,
00:32:58and 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.
00:33:11Not at all.
00:33:11Well, I felt nostalgia.
00:33:14Or something.
00:33:15For youth.
00:33:16You're not old, Jane.
00:33:18We ran out on the bill.
00:33:21You just ran out?
00:33:22What do you mean you ran out on the bill?
00:33:24Perhaps I'm not explaining it well.
00:33:25It was...
00:33:26It was fun.
00:33:29It was just fun.
00:33:30How was work?
00:33:43The conductor's actually a descendant of Walter Lake,
00:33:47which is fascinating.
00:33:48The three of us should plan a dinner before we leave.
00:33:51I'd like that.
00:33:56Jane?
00:33:56Oh, my God.
00:34:00This is Caleb.
00:34:03Hi.
00:34:04No, 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?
00:34:11Oh.
00:34:12You had the chance of a wreck.
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.
00:34:25Can I have the check, please?
00:34:37In a cafe, play for play?
00:34:43Oh, no, thank you.
00:34:44Okay.
00:34:47Jane, you don't smoke.
00:34:51Yes, I do.
00:34:52Sometimes, at parties.
00:34:56You know that.
00:34:58Well, I don't do it a lot.
00:35:01Okay.
00:35:02Grazie.
00:35:04You're good?
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.
00:35:20I 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 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.
00:35:47Why 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.
00:36:04I have one.
00:36:12What is the definition of perfect pitch?
00:36:17What?
00:36:20When you throw a viola into the dumpster without hitting the rim.
00:36:24You 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.
00:36:32You can pretty much make that joke about any instrument.
00:36:38Do you play anything, Caleb?
00:36:40This and that, you know.
00:36:44Shall we?
00:36:46What, time to go?
00:36:47Already?
00:36:48Yeah, I've got to 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?
00:37:07Yeah, there's this thing called 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.
00:37:17It's so pretty.
00:37:20How do you support yourself?
00:37:21You know, a bit of this, a bit of that.
00:37:28All 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.
00:37:41I 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.
00:38:00This, we, uh...
00:38:02There you go.
00:38:06And thanks again for yesterday.
00:38:07Oh, no problem.
00:38:08How stoned are you?
00:38:23Come on, man.
00:38:24We should tell him it's not a big deal.
00:38:27So, you're saying you smoke back at her?
00:38:31Occasionally.
00:38:32Hey, can 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.
00:38:43I'll be waiting.
00:38:43I'll be waiting.
00:38:44See you after.
00:38:45Bye-bye.
00:38:46Bye-bye.
00:38:48Bye-bye.
00:38:52Bye-bye.
00:39:13Bye-bye.
00:39:13Hey.
00:39:14God, you scared me.
00:39:16Are you following me?
00:39:18Maybe.
00:39:19Is that weird?
00:39:21Yeah.
00:39:31I couldn't sleep last night.
00:39:36You told me you were staying near the port so I got the first ferry this morning.
00:39:40I came looking for you.
00:39:43And I can't believe I found you.
00:40:13What are we doing?
00:40:14I think we'll make it out.
00:40:15It's so sexy and beautiful.
00:40:19What are we doing?
00:40:20I think we'll make it out.
00:40:21So sexy and beautiful.
00:40:25What are we doing?
00:40:26I think we'll make it out.
00:40:30I think we'll make it out.
00:40:31I think we'll make it out.
00:40:32It's so sexy and beautiful.
00:40:36And I think we'll make it out.
00:40:38I think we'll make it out.
00:40:39Oh yeah.
00:40:40You're so sexy and beautiful.
00:40:41I'm sorry.
00:40:42I'm sorry.
00:40:43Oh yeah.
00:40:44You're so sexy and beautiful.
00:40:45I'm sorry.
00:40:46I'm sorry.
00:40:47I'm sorry.
00:40:48I can't do this.
00:41:09What?
00:41:10Why?
00:41:11I can't do this.
00:41:12Why?
00:41:18Do you do this a lot?
00:41:23What?
00:41:24Do you do this a lot?
00:41:26What?
00:41:27Do you seduce women?
00:41:28Is this what you do?
00:41:30You need to be less serious.
00:41:38Don't follow me.
00:41:48Why?
00:41:56Why?
00:41:57Why?
00:41:59Why?
00:42:01Why?
00:42:05Why?
00:43:10Love at first sight?
00:43:14Stop that thing.
00:43:16I know.
00:43:19You're home early.
00:43:27I do deserve that.
00:43:29Can I just make my husband?
00:43:36Jane, 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.
00:43:44Sorry, 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.
00:43:53Two of us.
00:43:53I've just got to work this thing out for tomorrow.
00:43:57Okay.
00:43:58I'm sorry.
00:43:59I'm sorry.
00:44:29Leonard.
00:44:30Leonard.
00:44:31Can we talk?
00:44:32Let's go.
00:44:35Leonard.
00:44:38Leonard.
00:44:55Leonard, can we talk?
00:45:26Say cheese.
00:45:33You should kind of be in the middle.
00:45:36Hold on a second.
00:45:50That's what our living room is missing.
00:45:55What did you do?
00:46:09Put my hand over my mouth.
00:46:10You did?
00:46:11What did you do?
00:46:12Just wave.
00:46:25You did?
00:46:26Never.
00:46:27Just wave.
00:46:28You did?
00:46:29Not so good, don't you?
00:46:31Just wave.
00:46:32Here, here.
00:46:33Here, here.
00:46:34Let's go.
00:46:35Let's go.
00:46:36Let's go.
00:46:37Let's go.
00:46:38Let's go.
00:46:39CHOIR SINGS
00:48:45Oh.
00:48:46Hi.
00:48:47Did I wake you?
00:49:02No.
00:49:03I think I need to be less serious.
00:49:08Yeah.
00:49:09Will you put my pants on?
00:49:14Okay.
00:49:16Okay.
00:49:18Yeah.
00:49:19Yeah.
00:49:20Yeah.
00:49:21Yeah.
00:49:22Yeah.
00:49:23Yeah.
00:49:31Yeah.
00:49:33Yeah.
00:49:34Yeah.
00:53:04You make me feel nervous.
00:53:19You make me feel calm.
00:53:24Want a drink?
00:53:49Is that him?
00:54:12Yeah, I just shuffled around all night.
00:54:17Must be lonely.
00:54:41You make me feel calm.
00:55:49I didn't sleep at all last night.
00:56:19I've been thinking.
00:56:22You 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.
00:57:22If 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.
00:57:48I'm going to make some tea. Do you want some?
00:57:50I'm all right.
00:57:59If you go out like that again, just tell me.
00:58:03No worry.
00:58:05Okay.
00:58:08I 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?
00:58:40I'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.
00:59:07If 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.
00:59:44With the book?
00:59:48No, with my life.
00:59:50This 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.
01:00:08Everyone was chasing rabbits, and then we had our tea in the harvest fields.
01:00:21The horses.
01:00:22Yeah.
01:00:28The horses back then, they were kept beautifully.
01:00:30Dad 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?
01:00:46There 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.
01:00:55They 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...
01:01:36The time.
01:01:40Time is shiftable.
01:01:41There 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,
01:02:03rather than something you're learning for the first time.
01:02:06I'm sorry.
01:02:12What is it?
01:02:15Oh!
01:02:17Oh, you...
01:02:19Oh!
01:02:20You all right?
01:02:22Oh...
01:02:22You okay?
01:02:23Yeah, I stung my toe.
01:02:26Oh!
01:02:27It's bleeding.
01:02:28Oh, it's fine.
01:02:30It's fine, it's fine, it's fine, it's fine.
01:02:32You're losing it?
01:02:35Yes.
01:02:36Oh, fuck.
01:02:37Oh.
01:02:47I met these backpackers last night, Frank and Elsa.
01:02:50She's French, he's German.
01:02:52They're going to Tibet.
01:02:55And I'm going with them.
01:02:56I want you to come with me.
01:03:00I want you to come with me.
01:03:00I want you to come with me.
01:03:30I want you to come with me.
01:04:00Hi.
01:04:05Hi.
01:04:07How are you?
01:04:10A long day?
01:04:14Oh, when are they not?
01:04:17I don't think I'm choked on doing another stint like this.
01:04:24How's the writing going?
01:04:25I'm feeling inspired
01:04:28It's fantastic
01:04:33I think I've figured out the key
01:04:36To finishing the project
01:04:38Are you listening?
01:04:45You found the key to finishing this project
01:04:55But the water here tastes so funny
01:04:58Have 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?
01:05:25Yes
01:05:27Tedious
01:05:28I hate talking about sex with you
01:05:36Is 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
01:05:44Huge, vacant lots
01:05:46That we don't discuss
01:05:48Like what?
01:05:50Is there anything you want to ask me?
01:05:53Why, is there anything you want to tell me?
01:05:55I just want to connect
01:05:56I just want to connect
01:05:56So you don't feel that we're connected?
01:06:01Do you?
01:06:04I love you
01:06:05I get it, Leonard
01:06:14I get it
01:06:16It'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
01:06:25Let 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
01:06:33Want to have children?
01:06:35So did you
01:06:36But
01:06:37Say it
01:06:41Jane
01:06:42Say it
01:06:43I can't have children, Leonard
01:06:46I never will
01:06:49And if we keep trying
01:06:52They keep dying
01:06:53Again
01:06:53And again
01:06:54And again
01:06:55Please
01:06:55How 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?
01:07:10You will never be a father
01:07:11We can adopt
01:07:14That's not what you want
01:07:16Is it?
01:07:17Is that what you want?
01:07:20Hmm?
01:07:22Because I think about it all the time
01:07:24That the one thing
01:07:28You always wanted
01:07:29I will never be able to give you
01:07:30What are you trying to do, Jane?
01:07:43I just want to know
01:07:43That there's a reason
01:07:44For it all
01:07:46You're not curious about me, Leonard
01:07:58Not really
01:08:00What do you want me to know?
01:08:02You shouldn't have to ask
01:08:03I feel as if
01:08:05You want me to be
01:08:06Someone I'm not
01:08:08Someone that I've never been
01:08:14I'm leaving you
01:08:15I've been seeing someone else
01:08:19See him
01:08:25Caleb
01:08:27That 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
01:08:36Time is shiftable
01:08:39I don't get it
01:08:39Leonard
01:08:40I 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!
01:09:03I'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
01:09:29For losing my temper
01:09:31I shouldn't have done that
01:09:31Every right
01:09:32To lose your temper
01:09:34No, no, no, no
01:09:34If you think
01:09:35That this is what's gonna make you feel better
01:09:37Then you should go
01:09:38You should go with him
01:09:39You've been through a terrible
01:09:42A terrible thing, Jane
01:09:44No, that 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!

01:13:37ORCHESTRA PLAYS
01:14:07Ciao, buona fortuna.
01:14:13Ciao.
01:14:37Jase!
01:14:54You've got to come over to this side.
01:15:00The train'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?
01:16:06Hope you're keeping some kind of record.
01:16:12Yes.
01:16:13I wouldn't want to live to be 100.
01:16:35Why not?
01:16:37I'm not telling you why not.
01:16:42Now shut that thing off.
