00:00:01.
00:00:01.
00:00:01.
00:00:01.
00:00:02.
00:00:02.
00:00:02.
00:00:02.
00:00:11.
00:00:11.
00:00:11.
00:00:29Come on, darling. Come to bed.
00:00:32Er, I'll be right there, love.
00:00:35Just putting the kitten in her basket.
00:00:40Leave the door open so she can get to the litter.
00:00:44Good night, love ball.
00:01:02It's tonight. Are you coming?
00:01:05Should be amusing, if nothing else.
00:01:06Should be amusing, if nothing else.
00:01:07I can't get out.
00:01:09All the wall openings are closed.
00:01:12No, not all of them.
00:01:14Not there.
00:01:15The clear hole is partly open.
00:01:16You can get out through there.
00:01:35Jake, you tell, little one, we mustn't miss this.
00:01:57Good jump. You just have to work on the landing.
00:02:00Come on.
00:02:02The night won't wait.
00:02:07What will she be like?
00:02:09Who knows? Not this cat.
00:02:16Well met, fellow night threaders.
00:02:18Hello. We're going to see her.
00:02:21Me too.
00:02:22Although, I can't see much point to it.
00:02:26Then why are you here?
00:02:28Hmm.
00:02:30Curiosity, perhaps?
00:02:34I want to hear what she has to say.
00:02:38So do we all, child.
00:02:40So do we all.
00:03:03Where is she?
00:03:15Where is she?
00:03:19Sisters, brothers, good hunting.
00:03:24Some of you have traveled far to hear my message today.
00:03:28Left your warm, comfortable places.
00:03:31And I hope, when I have finished, you will all share my dream.
00:03:38I was not always as you see me today.
00:03:44Once, like many of you, I lived in their world.
00:03:48And, like you, I fooled myself.
00:03:53Oh, they fed me and gave me comfort.
00:03:56They served me.
00:03:58All they asked in return was my affection.
00:04:01No price at all, really.
00:04:27He was strong and fast.
00:04:30His claws and teeth were as sharp as winter.
00:04:35He was my choice of lover.
00:04:38I never saw him again, but I did not forget him.
00:04:43I didn't remember my own mother, but I vowed I would be different.
00:04:48I would teach them how to wash, how to stalk silently, how to hunt.
00:04:53You knew she was in heat.
00:04:56Why didn't you keep her inside?
00:04:58I think they're kind of cute.
00:05:00Cute? She's a purebred registered blue point.
00:05:03He's a half-breed.
00:05:05It wasn't worth anything.
00:05:16What are you going to do with them?
00:05:18Don't worry.
00:05:19I'll take care of it.
00:05:23Paul!
00:05:49I felt them from afar.
00:05:52in the dark, as the cold water took them, felt them thrash and claw sightlessly, felt them call to me
00:06:03in their fear.
00:06:14For God's sake, it's not as if she understands.
00:06:18I mean, look at her.
00:06:19She's probably relieved.
00:06:22Who would want four screaming brats around?
00:06:25You're probably right.
00:06:28I just feel guilty.
00:06:31I knew then that I had lied to myself, that we were subordinate.
00:06:36While we lived with humanity, we could not call ourselves free.
00:06:40And so, I prayed.
00:06:43I prayed.
00:06:43I prayed to the darkness, to the night, I prayed to the king of cats, he who walks amongst us,
00:06:50and we do not know him.
00:06:53And...
00:06:53I dreamed.
00:07:13Why have you come here, little cat? To the heart of the dreaming?
00:07:17There is nothing here for you.
00:07:20I have come for justice.
00:07:22For revelation.
00:07:24For wisdom.
00:07:25Justice is a delusion.
00:07:28And wisdom has no place here either.
00:07:31But revelation?
00:07:33That is the province of dream.
00:07:35If your heart is strong, and you are not afraid.
00:07:39I am afraid of nothing.
00:07:41In the mountain, there is a cave.
00:07:43You'll find him there.
00:07:45But the way is hard.
00:07:49A little cat could come to much harm if she strays from the path.
00:07:55Cats walk their own paths.
00:08:07I walked through the wood of ghosts, where the dead and lost whispered to me.
00:08:15I heard my children calling me.
00:08:19But, I walked forward.
00:08:28I walked through the cold places, where every step was pain, every movement, torment.
00:08:35I walked through the wetness, that numb my paws, drenched my fur.
00:08:42But still, I walked forward.
00:08:47I walked through the darkness, through the void, where everything was sucked from me.
00:08:53Everything that makes me what I am.
00:08:55And even when I no longer knew why, I walked forward.
00:09:01After a time, myself returned to me.
00:09:05And I found myself at the mountain.
00:09:08I have come to see the cat of dreams.
00:09:11Hmm.
00:09:13Why should we let you in?
00:09:15Why should he be disturbed for one such as you?
00:09:20A small mouthful of fear and bone. Barely a cat.
00:09:29I've come too far to be turned away.
00:09:31I will state my business to the one I came to see, and only to him.
00:09:35I am a cat. I keep my own counsel.
00:09:41Enter then, proud cat. But be warned. Dreams have a price.
00:09:54And I walked on.
00:10:15I am here.
00:10:17And who?
00:10:18Who are you?
00:10:21A cat. A walker in the night places. A dead crow sent me here. For revelation.
00:10:28I want to know. Why could they take my children from me? Why do we live as we do? I
00:10:36don't understand.
00:10:45A cat might look at a king, or so they say. Look into my eyes, little sister. Look into my
00:10:51eyes.
00:11:02And in his eyes, I saw everything. I saw the truth. Our truth. And it transcended anything I had imagined.
00:11:13Many, many seasons ago, cats truly ruled this world. We were larger then. Everything made for us.
00:11:23Humans were tiny creatures. No larger than we are now. They would groom us, feed us.
00:11:32When the moon shone full, we would hunt them. For they were more delightful to catch than even birds.
00:11:42Oh, the joy of those days I saw in his eyes. The game of cat and man.
00:11:51And then, one of the humans rose amongst them. Inspired by a dream, he told them.
00:12:00Dreams shape the world. Dreams create the world anew every night.
00:12:05Do not dream the world the way it is now. Dream of a new world. A world where we are
00:12:12no longer hunted. No longer prey. A world we rule.
00:12:17If enough of us dream it, it will happen. Dreams shape the world.
00:12:26Words spread amongst the humans. But for a while, nothing happened.
00:12:33But then, one night, enough of them dreamed. It wasn't many. A thousand perhaps. No more.
00:12:41They dreamed. And the next day, things changed.
00:12:47We were prey to them. To dogs, their metal machines. We were tiny. And they were huge.
00:12:55So they changed the world? Made it like it is now?
00:12:59Not exactly. They dreamed the world so it was always the way it is now.
00:13:04There was never a world where cats were in. They changed it. From the beginning of all things to the
00:13:09end of time. It was ever thus.
00:13:12Yes. Do you understand now? Yes. Yes, I do.
00:13:17Then you know what your task must be. The burden you must bear. Are you strong enough?
00:13:23Yes. I... I hope so.
00:13:28Then wake, child. With my blessing.
00:13:40You see, I had seen the soft underbelly of what he had shown me.
00:13:47I left that night to spread the good news. And now I travel from place to place.
00:13:53I have preached to feral cats in empty places, shouting my message to the stars.
00:14:00I have whispered it to cats in alleyways. And wherever I have gone, my message is the same.
00:14:08Dream. Dream it. If enough of us dream, a bare thousand, we can dream a world where no cat suffers.
00:14:16Where no kittens die cold and alone. Where all cats are queens and kings of creation.
00:14:21That is my message.
00:14:28And I shall keep moving. Repeating it until I die.
00:14:32Or until a thousand cats hear my words and believe them and dream.
00:14:40And we come again. To paradise.
00:14:49To paradise.
00:14:53Mistress?
00:14:58I believe.
00:15:00Then there is hope, child.
00:15:16Well, she was amusing at least. I'll say that for her.
00:15:20Do you think it will happen? Like she said?
00:15:23I'd like to see anyone. Prophet, God or King.
00:15:27Persuade a thousand cats to do anything at the same time.
00:15:32The sun will rise soon.
00:15:35Let's get you home, little one.
00:15:38We all want the best for our furry friends.
00:15:40Oh, look. She's still asleep.
00:15:45I think she's dreaming.
00:15:48I wonder what cats dream about.
00:15:51The way she's twitching. She's probably hunting something.
00:15:54Oh, look at her.
00:15:55Isn't that cute?
00:15:57It is. It's really cute.
00:16:11You can't force a character to do something just because it's easier for you as a writer.
00:16:18The character has to come first.
00:16:22Everything else follows.
00:16:25Every plot twist. Every line of dialogue.
00:16:32Every fraught, meaningful silence.
00:16:37Any questions?
00:16:40Could you tell us a bit about your process?
00:16:44Do you have any advice for those of us who are just starting out and finding it difficult to not
00:16:49hate every single thing I write?
00:16:54I am sad to report that I've been doing this for a very long time and it doesn't get any
00:17:03easier.
00:17:05But try not to be discouraged when it is difficult.
00:17:09My debut novel was rejected by seven publishers before it became a bestseller.
00:17:14So...
00:17:18Right.
00:17:19That's it for today.
00:17:21Oh, don't forget the assignment.
00:17:23The same event told from two characters. Very different points of view.
00:17:34Did you get it?
00:17:36Took some doing, but...
00:17:40Yeah.
00:17:46It's, um...
00:17:48It's perfect. Thank you.
00:17:51You're welcome.
00:17:52I think it's admirable.
00:17:54How far a writer like you will go when it comes to research.
00:17:57Ah, well.
00:17:58It's handy to know a soon-to-be doctor.
00:18:02I actually wanted to be a writer, but my parents insisted I have something to fall back on.
00:18:07I still write when I have time, but...
00:18:10Your parents are very wise.
00:18:15You're better off.
00:18:17I promise.
00:18:21Uh, so, what do I owe you?
00:18:24Nothing.
00:18:25Stop, Nora.
00:18:26Honestly, it probably would have been incinerated anyway.
00:18:30Um, just don't tell anyone where you got it.
00:18:33I won't. I promise.
00:18:35And, um, if you wouldn't mind, would you sign this for me?
00:18:44Of course.
00:18:49Any idea when the new book is coming out?
00:18:54Uh, no.
00:18:55But you will definitely be in the acknowledgements.
00:18:59Is it a sequel?
00:19:01Or something new?
00:19:04That would be telling.
00:19:35Who is it?
00:19:37Richard Maddox.
00:19:38To see Erasmus Frye.
00:19:40Army, stream down.
00:19:50Are you alone?
00:19:53It's just me.
00:19:55I've got it.
00:19:56Well then, come in, dear boy.
00:19:59Come in.
00:20:15How are you, Richard?
00:20:18You written anything profound and stirring recently?
00:20:24You know I haven't, Mr Frye.
00:20:27No.
00:20:29I haven't written a single word in a year.
00:20:32Nothing I haven't thrown away.
00:20:34Then I suggest you sit down, have a drink, and show me my present.
00:20:38Not necessarily in that order.
00:20:41Yep.
00:20:56Oh, well done, dear boy.
00:21:00Oh.
00:21:01A genuine...
00:21:04Trikino Berzua.
00:21:06Do you know about these?
00:21:09They're generally removed from the stomachs of young women.
00:21:13Who are in the habit of ingesting their own hair.
00:21:17The Rapunzel syndrome, it's called.
00:21:21Berzua is for once believed to possess mystic powers.
00:21:24They can remedy poison, make the sick well.
00:21:28Edward IV survived the effects of a poisoned wound,
00:21:32due solely to the possession of a bassor.
00:21:37Yes, I see, I'm lecturing again.
00:21:41An old writer with no one to talk to grows fond of the sound of his own voice.
00:21:48But I suppose you'd like your present now.
00:21:56I was twenty-seven visiting Mount Helicon,
00:22:00researching yet another novel I was sure to abandon.
00:22:03This one's steeped in Greek mythology,
00:22:06and while I was there, I discovered a trove of ancient texts
00:22:10about the muses,
00:22:12and how to control them using moly,
00:22:17sorcerer's garlic, and certain lost rituals.
00:22:21The hardest part was getting her back to England.
00:22:25The most important sound.
00:22:51There she is.
00:22:55what would you with me now Erasmus
00:22:58am I to perform for your amusement
00:23:02is this man to be our audience
00:23:04this is Richard Maddock
00:23:07he's a novelist or at least he's written one extremely successful
00:23:12first novel but now he finds himself quite unable
00:23:16to write anything else Richard this is Calliope
00:23:20the youngest of the nine sisters she was Homer's muse
00:23:23so she ought to be good enough for you
00:23:27Calliope I'm giving you to Richard
00:23:30you're his now
00:23:33but you said that you would free me before you died
00:23:36put not your trust in princes my dear
00:23:40nor in an aging author who has never been
00:23:43what you might call a shining example
00:23:45when it came to keeping his word
00:23:50what you promised
00:23:51writers are liars my dear
00:23:55surely you realize that by now
00:24:02don't worry she can't run away
00:24:05she's bound to you now
00:24:07just as she was once bound to me
00:24:10then why keep her locked away
00:24:12because I couldn't bear to look at that
00:24:14pouty aggrieved little face of hers all day
00:24:18and neither will you
00:24:19I assure you
00:24:22I don't know if I can do this
00:24:25of course you can dear boy
00:24:38they say one ought to woo her kind
00:24:42but I must say I found force most efficacious
00:24:52now don't be fooled

00:24:55she's thousands of years old
00:24:58she was created for this

00:25:37however if you ever happen to feel a spark of gratitude
00:25:41you might persuade your publisher to bring
00:25:44here comes a candle back into print
00:25:48I was particularly proud of that one
00:26:32I was like
00:26:33I uh
00:26:36I just need time
00:26:38to think about what to do
00:26:40what is there to think about
00:26:45I'm a goddess
00:26:47a daughter of Zeus
00:26:50I am not a possession

00:27:37please
00:27:44I choose with whom I share my gifts
00:27:50perhaps we both need
00:27:52time to think
00:27:53perhaps we both need time to think
00:27:59I wonder if there's no more flavor than other things...
00:28:06Let's try.
00:28:07It's good.
00:28:12I try to use it for a couple of minutes.
00:28:14I can't wait for it.
00:28:19I don't want to give it for my kids.
00:28:20You don't want to get meek.
00:28:20Do you want to make meek post to make a picture of the girl?
00:28:23I don't want to make the picture of the girl yet.
00:28:23I don't want to be sure.
00:28:23I don't want to be informed about the girl.
00:29:53You can't articulate.
00:29:55Foddle our words.
00:29:56We couldn't pinpoint exactly what it was he did that we felt was so wrong.
00:30:01So yeah, Borky is crazy.
00:30:16You seek to woo me with presents?
00:30:22Is this not how it's done?
00:30:25I think you know how it is done.
00:30:29An artist prays to the muses.
00:30:34He offers vows of service and devotion to the goddesses in exchange for divine inspiration.
00:30:40An artist does not hold a muse against her will.
00:30:44You gave Erasmus Frye what he wanted.
00:30:46I did not.
00:30:49He took it from me.
00:30:57I had returned to Mount Helicon.
00:31:00To the sacred springs.
00:31:03I lay my scroll upon the shore and I went bathing as I had always done.
00:31:11He found it there.
00:31:13He read it.
00:31:15And said,
00:31:19Calliope, you may call me master.
00:31:22And then he burned my scroll, which bound me to him and now to you, unless you say the words,
00:31:30that I may be as free as you are.
00:31:32You think I'm free?
00:31:37I got the advance for this book two years ago.
00:31:40I haven't even started it yet.
00:31:42I don't even know what it's about.
00:31:48I'm drowning, Calliope.
00:31:55Please.
00:31:58I am begging you.
00:32:02Ask me again.
00:32:05When I am free.
00:32:42You better be fucking writing.
00:32:45I would be if you weren't calling to harass me.
00:32:48Your publishers just called to harass me.
00:32:51They want the booking now.
00:32:54I just need a couple of weeks.
00:32:56Vicky, it's nine months overdue.
00:32:59You're technically in breach.
00:33:01I don't know what they want me to do, Harry.
00:33:03These things take time.
00:33:04Ricky, you've had time.
00:33:06You've taken your time.
00:33:07You've also taken their money.
00:33:11I know.
00:33:12Now, you have to give them something.
00:33:15Anything, a chapter.
00:33:17Or they're going to cancel the deal and demand the advance back.
00:33:20But, anything I can do.
00:33:23Because you'll no longer be my client.
00:33:27Do you understand?
00:33:31Don't be fooled.
00:33:33She's not human.
00:33:34She's thousands of years old.
00:33:37She was created for this.
00:33:39This is her purpose.
00:33:40To inspire men like us.
00:33:47I understand.
00:33:47Vicky, say something.
00:33:50So I know you understand.
00:33:51I understand.
00:33:55I'll send you something.
00:34:17I don't know what to do.
00:34:18Can I pick?
00:34:57Gracious ladies, mother of the Kamen, hear my prayer.
00:35:03It is I, your daughter, Calliope, that calls you to deliver me from this place.
00:35:12Ladies of meditation, remembrance, and song.
00:35:19Hark into me.
00:35:20All right.
00:35:22Enough beautiful voice.
00:35:31We feel your pain, daughter, but we cannot help you.
00:35:34You were snared upon Helicon according to the mysteries.
00:35:36You are lawfully bound.
00:35:39But it is not just my mother's.
00:35:42Is there nothing you can do?
00:35:44No one who can intercede on my behalf?
00:35:47There are a few of the old powers who are willing or able to meddle in mortal affairs in these
00:35:52days, Calliope.
00:35:52Many gods have died, my daughter.
00:35:55Only the Endless never fade.
00:35:57And even they have been having a difficult time of late.
00:36:03Still, every little bit helps, as the old woman said when she pissed in the sea.
00:36:09The Endless, there's a thought. After all, the dream king and Calliope were close at one point.
00:36:17Not for long.
00:36:18And remember, sister self, they did not part on the best of terms.
00:36:22Still, she did bear his cup.
00:36:27That boy child who went to Hades for his lady love and died in Thrace, torn apart for his sacrilege.
00:36:35He had a beautiful voice too.
00:36:40Orpheus.
00:36:40Dream king will never help me.
00:36:44Not after what I did to him.
00:36:46He hates me for that.
00:36:48And I despise him.
00:36:51I would not accept his help.
00:36:52Foolish child.
00:36:54Onerus is in no position to help you, even if you wished it.
00:36:58Which is unlikely.
00:37:00Like you, your former husband has been ensnared by mortals.
00:37:03He is immured beneath the ground.
00:37:06Leaving this realm gripped by sleeping sickness.
00:37:09And a plague of dreams and nightmares wreaking havoc.
00:37:12I am sorry, little one.
00:37:16No.
00:37:17Your prayers were wasted.
00:37:20There's nothing we can do for you.
00:37:23Please.
00:37:24And nothing you can do but hope.
00:37:28Please don't leave me here.
00:37:32I beg of you.
00:37:39We've got a nice little bidding war on our hands.
00:37:43Every major studio wants a piece of him.
00:37:45Film.
00:37:47Broadcast.
00:37:48Streaming.
00:37:48Er, who's the frontrunner?
00:37:50Whoever lets him write and direct.
00:37:53They won't even let Joe Rowley write and direct.
00:37:56Joe Rowley needs a new agent.
00:37:57Tell her to call me.
00:37:59I will never understand how a work of genre fiction came to be nominated, let alone shortlisted.
00:38:05The committee felt not his new book has transcended genre.
00:38:09Have you read it?
00:38:10No.
00:38:11Of course not.
00:38:12No, I have.
00:38:14And the reason I can have written by an entirely different man.
00:38:17It's a gorgeous book.
00:38:20Quite remarkable.
00:38:22I mean the sheer richness of the material.
00:38:24Yes.
00:38:25Why is he going to change his name?
00:38:28How do you mean?
00:38:29From Richard to Rick.
00:38:30About the cave.
00:38:32I think it probably speaks to the novel's theme of reinvention.
00:38:36I think it probably speaks to the author's pretension.
00:38:39Where were we?
00:38:41I was saying how much I loved your characterisation of Eileen.
00:38:45There aren't enough strong female characters in fiction.
00:38:48Not even fiction written by women.
00:38:50I agree.
00:38:52And I know it's fashionable at the moment to say that only women can write authentically about the female experience.
00:38:58But, er...
00:39:00I do tend to regard myself as a feminist writer.
00:39:06And where does that voice come from in you?
00:39:10The female voice.
00:39:15From the women in my life.
00:39:47I'm shooting the movie version in Los Angeles.
00:39:49The studio have hired me a private jet.
00:39:51So we shouldn't have any trouble getting you into the country.
00:39:54And, er...
00:39:55Who knows?
00:39:56Maybe we'll decide to stay in L.A.
00:40:01Can you not allow yourself to enjoy our success?
00:40:10Even for a second.
00:40:13We are telling stories that move and inspire people.
00:40:21Isn't that what muses were made for?
00:40:24My sister goddesses and I were born.
00:40:26We were not made.
00:40:28Sorry, it's Larry.
00:40:30Did you talk to the studio?
00:40:37No, I need them to guarantee at the outset that cast and crew will be made up of at least
00:40:4350% women.
00:40:45And people of colour.
00:40:46And then we need to publicise it so they can't back out of it when it comes to hiring people.
00:41:02We're all in the movie.
00:41:12Are you fucking kidding me?
00:41:14No.
00:41:16No.
00:41:18No.
00:41:19I am making it so fucking fun.
00:41:22I don't care.
00:41:25I don't care.
00:41:26I don't care.
00:41:30No.
00:41:44No.
00:42:05I call to you, Oniros, that you may hear me.
00:42:10Come to my aid when I say your name out loud.
00:42:19Morpheus.
00:42:21What does it mean?
00:42:24It is the name of the god of dreams.
00:42:32You're writing him a letter.
00:42:35Something like that.
00:42:56You're mine.
00:42:59By law.
00:43:02The god of dreams can't save you.
00:43:23Thank you for agreeing to do this interview at your home.
00:43:25Thank you for getting the word out about the new book.
00:43:27So, I thought I'd start by asking about your formative literary influences.
00:43:33Well, I wouldn't even be a writer if it wasn't for having read people like Shirley Jackson and Margaret Atwood
00:43:40and Octavia Rebutler.
00:43:42Having read Eagle Stones, the writer that came to mind was the late Erasmus Frye.
00:43:47Oh.
00:43:48Sorry.
00:43:48Did you say the late Erasmus Frye?
00:43:51He's, um...
00:43:54He died?
00:43:56Last summer.
00:43:57Did you know him?
00:43:59I didn't know him.
00:44:01We met on a couple of occasions.
00:44:03He was very kind about my work.
00:44:08He must have been almost 90.
00:44:09Did he, um...
00:44:11Did he die of old age?
00:44:13No.
00:44:15He actually poisoned himself.
00:44:18Apparently, the last thing he did was write a letter to his old publisher begging them to bring one of
00:44:23his books back into print.
00:44:25Here comes a candle, I suppose.
00:44:27I think it was.
00:44:28How did you know?
00:44:31It was, perhaps, my favourite book when I was growing up.
00:44:35It was very moving, honest, and...
00:44:41Strange.
00:44:45Poor old sod.
00:44:47It's a shame people stopped reading him.
00:44:49That his work fell out of fashion.
00:44:52Not that you'll have to worry about that.
00:44:54You're Richard Maddock.
00:44:55Oh, sorry.
00:44:56Richard Maddock.
00:44:58Right.
00:45:00Next question.
00:45:09You came.
00:45:15You called.
00:45:19They told me you had been in prison.
00:45:21Just like me.
00:45:23Not like you.
00:45:26My suffering was nothing compared to yours.
00:45:28Don't say that.
00:45:31Comparing our suffering only compounds it.
00:45:33It pains me to hear of your misfortune.
00:45:37I'm glad that you're free.
00:45:39You were bound here by the laws.
00:45:43I know that you cannot free me.
00:45:47Only he can do that, but...
00:45:50perhaps you might...
00:45:52inspire him...
00:45:54to let me go.
00:45:56I will do all that...
00:45:59and more.
00:46:01Dream.
00:46:03He...
00:46:03must...
00:46:04be punished.
00:46:05How?
00:46:06What...
00:46:07punishment...
00:46:08could be enough?
00:46:09Even his death would not bring back what he has taken from me.
00:46:13He's nothing.
00:46:15He's just a man.
00:46:17I cannot allow him to go free.
00:46:19Why?
00:46:20Because I was once yours.
00:46:23Because he heard you.
00:46:28The last time I saw you, you said you would never speak to me again.
00:46:32I'm sorry.
00:46:34I...
00:46:35I did not know where else to turn.
00:46:39You misunderstand me.
00:46:42When I heard you call to me.
00:46:45Even after all this time.
00:46:54Let me help you.
00:46:58Please.
00:47:00I owe you that much.
00:47:09What will you do to him?
00:47:27What the f...
00:47:28Who the fuck are you?
00:47:30Get out of my house.
00:47:32Be quiet.
00:47:34You are keeping a woman here against her will.
00:47:38I have come to request that you set her free.
00:47:42You out of your mind?
00:47:44There's no woman here.
00:47:45I'm calling the police.
00:47:46Do you know who I am?
00:47:47I know precisely who and what you are, Richard Maddock.
00:47:55Are you going to call the police?
00:47:57No.
00:47:58I will not call any human agency.
00:48:02Just let her go.
00:48:03You don't understand.
00:48:04I need her.
00:48:05If I didn't have her, I wouldn't be able to write.
00:48:07I wouldn't have ideas.
00:48:09Look.
00:48:10I have money.
00:48:11Hold your tongue.
00:48:18She has been held captive for more than 60 years.
00:48:24Demeaned.
00:48:25Abused.
00:48:27Defiled.
00:48:28Then you will not set her free because you need ideas.
00:48:32Well.
00:48:34If it's ideas you want, then you shall have them.
00:48:38In abundance.
00:49:09What did you do to me?
00:49:13Are you giving me nightmares now?
00:49:18Tell me!
00:49:18I have done nothing to you, Richard Maddock.
00:49:24You have met Morpheus.
00:49:27Whom the Romans called the Shaper of Form.
00:49:30He was once my husband.
00:49:33And the father of my son.
00:49:36I didn't know you had a son.
00:49:38You know nothing about me.
00:49:41But it is too late to let any of that concern you now.
00:49:52And in the darkness, he thought about the story in every star.
00:50:01Like fireflies.
00:50:05Flicking.
00:50:07Fading.
00:50:09In the night.
00:50:25Any questions?
00:50:28Oh.
00:50:31The young woman in the third row.
00:50:37Your work spans so many genres.
00:50:40So many worlds.
00:50:43So many different kinds of characters.
00:50:45May I just ask.
00:50:46Where does all that come from?
00:50:49For me.
00:50:53Ideas don't come from.
00:50:55Anywhere.
00:50:57They're all around us.
00:50:59All the time.
00:51:00I could write.
00:51:01An entire novel.
00:51:04Set at.
00:51:06A book reading.
00:51:08There.
00:51:10Something had happened to the world outside.
00:51:14A holocaust.
00:51:16Of some kind.
00:51:17But the audience.
00:51:18Was safe.
00:51:21As long as the author kept reading.
00:51:26Or.
00:51:27A story about the fraternity of critics.
00:51:30In reality.
00:51:31A dark brethren linked by profane rites and blood vows.
00:51:37To destroy an author they.
00:51:39Sacrifice a child.
00:51:41Perform a critical mass.
00:51:47Or a city where the streets are paved with time.
00:51:52A train.
00:51:53Full of silent women.
00:51:55Driven by a blind man.
00:52:07Heads made of light.
00:52:08Sorry.
00:52:12Sorry.
00:52:13A weregoldfish.
00:52:15Who transforms into a wolf at full moon.
00:52:18A man who inherits a library card to the library of Alexandria.
00:52:25Two old women taking a weasel on holiday.
00:52:29of a city.
00:52:36A Sistina without silence.
00:52:38Using the words...
00:52:40Dark.
00:52:41Ragged.
00:52:43Never.
00:52:44Screaming.
00:52:45Fire.
00:52:46Kiss.
00:52:48An old man who wrote into the universe and kept it in a jam jar.
00:52:52A man who falls in love with a paper doll.
00:52:54Mr. Maddox, it's Nora. What's happened to your hands?
00:52:57I'm just having so many ideas.
00:52:59I didn't have a pen or any paper.
00:53:02I just used my hands.
00:53:08I said I needed the ideas, but they're coming too fast.
00:53:12You need to get him to the hospital.
00:53:14No, please. Go to my house.
00:53:17There is a woman in a room upstairs.
00:53:21She's locked up in there.
00:53:23I... tell her that she can go, that I free her.
00:53:27I don't understand.
00:53:29Take my keys, let her out, make her leave, make her go away.
00:53:36I signed a book for you once, didn't I?
00:53:41Please.
00:53:44Okay. Okay, I'll go.
00:53:47Make it stop.
00:53:49Tell her I am sorry.
00:53:53Magical and alchemical traditions seen as a cargo cult.
00:53:56We'll meet you at the hospital.
00:53:57The sun setting over the path and then...
00:53:59Shark's teeth soup.
00:54:00A nightingale.
00:54:01A rosebush.
00:54:02And, uh, uh, black rubber dog collar.
00:54:21Hello?
00:54:23Hello?
00:54:25Hello?
00:54:59It is over.
00:55:10I merely answered your call.
00:55:15What will you do now?
00:55:20I think what I must do is to...
00:55:24try to make sure that this never happens to anyone else ever again.
00:55:30How?
00:55:32I do not know.
00:55:35By inspiring humanity to want better for themselves and each other.
00:55:41By rewriting the laws by which I was held.
00:55:44Laws that were written long ago and which my sisters and I had no say.
00:55:49I shall do the same in my realm.
00:55:53You have changed, Oneros.
00:55:56In the old days, you would have left me here to rot without turning a hair.
00:56:04Do you still hate me?
00:56:08For leaving you?
00:56:10For blaming you for what happened?
00:56:12No.
00:56:16I have learnt much in recent times and...
00:56:23No matter.
00:56:26I do not hate you.
00:56:34I think you should release the mortal now.
00:56:38He has set me free.
00:56:40And without forgiveness, wounds will never heal.
00:56:42You would forgive him...
00:56:44for what he has done?
00:56:46I would not forgive what he has done.
00:56:49But I must forgive the man.
00:56:51Not for him.
00:56:53For me.
00:56:56Will you free him?
00:56:59If that is what you wish...
00:57:03it shall be done.
00:57:14I'm back, Mr. Maddox.
00:57:16How are you feeling?
00:57:18I...
00:57:20I don't know anymore.
00:57:23I keep trying to think.
00:57:26I did what you asked.
00:57:27I went to your place.
00:57:29There was just...
00:57:31a book.
00:57:33There was something she said.
00:57:35The...
00:57:36paper of forms.
00:57:39There was a name.
00:57:40She wrote it down.
00:57:42I...
00:57:45I wish I could remember.
00:57:46It's so hard to...
00:57:50think all of a sudden.
00:57:53Is there anyone I should call?
00:57:55She's gone.
00:58:01And it's all gone with her.
00:58:04The ideas.
00:58:06The stories.
00:58:11They were all hers.
00:58:14Whose?
00:58:15Who are you talking about?
00:58:22I have no...
00:58:26idea.
00:58:32No idea.
00:58:39I...
00:58:39May I...
00:58:40visit you...
00:58:41in the Dream Realm...
00:58:42sometime?
00:58:44So that we might finally talk about our son?
00:58:49and
00:58:50grieve him
00:58:53properly
