00:00You
00:15Hello there, Charles. Sister. I sold the house. Our house?
00:20Maude, you can't look after yourself, let alone a house. Get a job or something. Job doing what? I don't
00:25know!
00:28Thinking about hiring a woman to help around the house, I want to put up a sign.
00:39I'm Maude.
00:44Looking for a woman. What do you think I am?
00:47Let me tell you how it is around here. There's me, them dogs, them chickens, then you.
00:52You want me here, don't you? Because I walk out right now.
00:57I told you you could paint fairies on the wall. I think it looks all right.
01:02Did you paint that happy little chicken?
01:04Yeah. I wanted to remember his happier days, then.
01:10I'd like to see one of your larger paintings.
01:12Five dollars. Done.
01:15Our paintings have even been sold to Vice President Nixon.
01:18You can find Maude Lewis selling our paintings from the front steps of her little house here in Marshalltown, Nova
01:23Scotia.
01:24Can I get you to look towards the camera this way, Mr. Lewis? And smile, maybe? Nice, thank you.
01:28Never asked for this, my face, on the TV, for all the world to laugh at.
01:33Ever since you stepped into my life.
01:36Nothing but pain.
01:39I've known you for years, Maude.
01:42And I'm still trying to figure out what makes you tick.
01:52You can do much better than me.
01:55I've got everything I want with you, Ev.
01:59Everything.
02:01I'm dark from the road.
02:05Make my designs up.
02:07On a love window.
02:08And cut from the...
02:10Bird, whizzing by.
02:12It's always different.
02:13I'm dark from the road.
02:16The whole of life already framed.
02:19And cut from the...
02:21Right there.
02:22...kill.
