00:08I don't know, Mother. I'm a gypsy.
00:10I'm in the root company of 42nd's feet.
00:13And my feet are gigantic.
00:16He hit with the shoes, didn't you?
00:18Well, duh, bitch.
00:19He hit with the shoes. That's how he got those half-moon marks on his forehead and on his hands.
00:23Yeah, what about those cigarette burns on his ass?
00:27That's for me!
00:28Just, Mommy, you need to go on Prozac.
00:30That's fast.
00:31What else could I do?
00:34Lock him with those braids?
00:36When it was his fault, if he gave me the medal like I told him to, I wouldn't have hit
00:41him.
00:41That still doesn't explain why you fucked him.
00:44All right, now, we're going to start at the beginning and you're going to tell me the truth.
00:49I know you killed him, so there's no sense lying.
00:52Rora, I want you to tell me the truth again.
00:54You're too old to be my mommy.
00:56Socialism is a better system.
00:57You're a man.
00:59How could I be a man when a girdle hurts this much?
01:01I don't know.
01:02Ask Charles Pierce.
01:07I found him there.
01:11And I told him I'd hit it with my shoe and they didn't give me the medal.
01:15Oh, Mommy, Mommy, please say you won't let them hurt me.
01:18Honey, you just killed them all anyway.
01:22I don't know what must be done now, but I promise you nobody will hurt you.
01:27I want to play the way we used to, Mommy.
01:29Will you play with me?
01:31Not unless you pay me first, you little freak.
01:34If I give you a basket of kisses, we'll...
01:36No discount for family.
01:39Please.
01:40I tried to give you an answer.
02:00Elise, are you awake?
02:26Oh, can you run by Whole Foods and pick up, like, six mahi-mahi fillets for tomorrow?
02:31Six.
02:32Yeah, I'm making dinner for your mom's birthday.
02:34I told you not to do that.
02:36Just because someone tells you not to do something doesn't mean they don't want you to do it.
02:40Lisa, maybe your mother likes people to go out of their way for her birthday, but trust me,
02:45my mother never wants us to do anything for hers, and we never do.
02:49So far, it's worked out great for everyone.
02:52Do you think she'd like Sarah McLachlan?
02:54It's a party.
02:55We have to have music.
02:58Play whenever you want.
02:59Just don't come running to me when it blows up in your face.
03:02Nothing's going to blow up in my face, Nate.
03:03This is important.
03:04I want to do something for your mom.
03:06Not with us living here at all.
03:08Okay.
03:10Just keep your expectations low, is all I'm saying.
03:18Companies were forced to restrict how they market cigarettes in the United States.
03:22Lisa called while you were in the shower.
03:23She wants us to come over for dinner tomorrow night.
03:25I thought it was our turn to invite them.
03:27No, she's throwing a birthday party for your mom.
03:31Who does she think she is?
03:32My mother does not like anything for her birthday.
03:34Oh, come on.
03:35Her mom deserves a party.
03:37Oh, you want to go?
03:39What else are we going to do?
03:40Stay home and watch porn?
03:42Oh, which reminds me.
03:44You got to return to Gaytricks, the video West.
03:58Somebody want to tell me why I should give a rat's ass what's in Salma Hayek's purse?
04:06Oh, you're something else, Fisher.
04:08I'm sorry?
04:09It's your fucking birthday.
04:10You were spending it in the dentist's office?
04:12Well, I can't just ignore my oral hygiene.
04:14And I'm celebrating my birthday.
04:16There's going to be a party tomorrow night.
04:17Well, you bet you there's going to be a party.
04:18I'm going to make sure of that.
04:19You're going to have to spike the punch with LSD.
04:21Tina, don't please.
04:23Speaking of LSD, your sister called me last night from Hazelden.
04:26What was Sarah doing?
04:27She won't return my calls.
04:28She's become best friends with someone who's very famous, but she won't tell me who it is.
04:32All she'll say is it's somebody who fucked Michael Douglas.
04:41Okay, this is not what I had in mind when I said I'd spend the day with you.
04:48Excuse me.
04:49My friend had an appointment to get her teeth cleaned at 11 o'clock.
04:52It's almost noon.
04:53Our technician is running a little late today.
04:56How much longer, you think?
04:58I can't really say.
05:01Oh, you can't, huh?
05:03No.
05:04You're just going to have to wait your turn like everyone else.
05:08What's your name?
05:09Patty.
05:11Hi, Patty.
05:12I'm Bettina.
05:13I have another question for you, Patty.
05:15Yes?
05:16I can understand her having to wait.
05:17What I can't understand is your need to be such a condescending asshole to someone who is, after all, a
05:22better human being.
05:22Oh, excuse me.
05:22I don't have to sit here and listen to this.
05:24I mean, do you really think you're so special?
05:26I mean...
05:27Or are you just pissed off because your life sucks?
05:29I'm sorry.
05:29I hate to break it to you, honey.
05:31Just go.
05:31But it's not our fault!
05:33I'll call to reschedule.
05:38Dennis recommended you.
05:41From Chorus?
05:43Yes.
05:44I'm a member, too.
05:45I haven't been very active the past year since Bob got sick.
05:49It wasn't AIDS.
05:52Even though we both fucked like bunnies during the 70s.
05:55We buried half our friends.
05:57We thought we'd been spared and we'd grow old together.
06:01Such a hubris.
06:03I'm so sorry.
06:04It was cardiomyopathy.
06:06Enlarged heart.
06:08His heart was too big.
06:11We used to joke about it.
06:12It was caused by a severely leaking heart valve.
06:16We used to joke about that, too.
06:19Bleeding heart.
06:22Have any other members of his family been contacted?
06:25I called his sister in Phoenix, but she's not coming.
06:28His family was never very accepting of things.
06:35Bob and I were together for 22 years, so I'm his family.
06:41We have durable power of attorney.
06:43I'll have our lawyer fax it to you.
06:45I'm sorry we have to ask you for that.
06:47Yes.
06:51I'm a scenic designer for the Los Angeles Lyric Opera.
06:55Bob was the lighting designer.
06:59I was told that you would be more open to accommodating certain requests.
07:07You've got to be kidding me.
07:09A fucking opera?
07:10He just wants to design a set and rig some special lighting.
07:13Well, how long is this going to take?
07:14They're going to need this lumber room for two days.
07:16Oh, no way.
07:17No way.
07:18We could have three funerals.
07:19Apparently he's willing to pay for it.
07:21For a fucking opera?
07:22Yes, Federico.
07:27You know, Vanessa's cousin won opera tickets once from KUSC and she gave them to us.
07:32And it was just, it was so completely whacked.
07:34It was like this, like this magic mirror, you know, and this dead swan and this, like, bleeding spear.
07:42Percival.
07:43Yeah.
07:44Yeah.
07:44And, and, uh, they had these flower chicks who were supposed to be hot, you know?
07:48They were all just, like, major wide loads.
07:51And, and these lame-ass knights who were, like, they were, like, prancing around and singing at the top of
07:56their lungs, you know?
07:57It was just so, so fucking gay.
08:01I was going to say stupid.
08:02Bullshit.
08:02You don't want to do this funeral.
08:04You think it's too gay.
08:05That's not what I was going to say.
08:06Well, we're doing it and that's final.
08:08These guys were together for 22 years and we're going to show them the respect that they deserve.
08:16Hey.
08:18Hey.
08:24You've got to be kidding me.
08:25You've never had a massage before?
08:28No.
08:30Where have you been living?
08:31Under a rock?
08:33Lighten up, sister.
08:34This is her first time on the table.
08:36Oh, no.
08:36What you're doing is just fine, dear.
08:40Nikolai was always trying to get me to come here.
08:42Why didn't you?
08:43I don't know.
08:44I was afraid.
08:45I think if you're afraid of something, it probably means you should do it.
08:49I don't usually like being touched by strangers, but this is invigorating.
08:56It's mandatory.
08:57I started getting a massage every week after I caught my second husband cheating on me.
09:02Oh.
09:03Hey, I'm not a porcelain butterfly.
09:05You want a tip or not?
09:13I cheated on my husband.
09:15No way.
09:17It's true.
09:18With my hairdresser.
09:20He was the one who first took me hiking.
09:22Way to go, Fisher.
09:25I cheated on number two.
09:27And only after I knew he was cheating on me.
09:30That's fair.
09:31He even slept with his gastroenterologist.
09:34Oh.
09:34For some reason, I thought that would really hurt him.
09:37He just laughed at me.
09:39And I will always hate him for that.
09:42Asshole.
09:44I still feel guilty for cheating on Nathaniel.
09:47Hey.
09:48You gotta let go of that.
09:50It's done.
09:51Move on.
09:54Oh.
10:10Oh, wait.
10:11Careful.
10:16Wait in there.
10:18Just make sure it doesn't bring against the wall, okay?
10:20Thanks.
10:20I thought Puccini was Italian.
10:23Well, he is, but turned out takes place in China.
10:28Huh.
10:30That's big.
10:33Well, Kevin obviously needs something to pour himself into to take his mind off such an incomprehensible loss.
10:39It was Puccini's last opera, you know.
10:41He died before he got a chance to finish it.
10:46Bob was much more of a formalist than I am.
10:50But I think he would have liked it.
10:55Hey, Nellie would have liked that.
10:58Jesus.
10:59He could serve breakfast on that ass.
11:03If Bob were here, he'd be all over that boy like white on rice.
11:06And I guarantee you, he'd have him in bed before nightfall.
11:10I swear, he could charm the pants off any man alive.
11:14And he usually did.
11:16I was never as lucky as he was in that department, but at least he liked to share.
11:23Eric.
11:24You'll have to make sure those risers are flush.
11:27All right?
11:28Here, let me give you that.
11:30Well, that's one way to grieve.
11:31We should try this bit.
11:32How do they ever last 22 years?
11:35You know, it's easy when you get to fuck wherever you want to the whole time.
11:38There you go.
11:40Hand me that Makita.
11:41Here.
11:44So were you guys a couple or just hanging out?
11:47Well, I thought we were a couple, but he thought we were just hanging out.
11:52He was squirrely, wasn't he?
11:54Yeah, totally.
11:56Nate used to be like that.
11:59Sometimes you just have to hang in there and wait.
12:02Wait for what?
12:05For them to grow up.
12:09If I had known he was going to be such a jerk, I would never have slept with him in
12:12that crematorium.
12:13Okay, put me to work.
12:14Ruth, no, it's your night off.
12:16Oh, I much prefer to be busy.
12:18Mom, you really should have told me this party was going to be such a big deal.
12:20It's not a big deal at all.
12:21Because I could have tried to change my plans.
12:22No, no, I won't hear of it.
12:24You're not going to be here?
12:25No, I've got to go to this guest artist lecture series.
12:27It's Scott Phillips Smith.
12:30He's like this really radical artist with death threats against him.
12:33He's very political.
12:35Claire, it's your mother's birthday.
12:37Don't be silly.
12:38You go ahead.
12:39This isn't going to be my last birthday.
12:41I'll totally make it up to you.
12:44Ruth, would you prefer curry chickpeas or chickpea croquettes?
12:48Oh, chickpeas give me gas.
12:51This is an unusually gassy family.
12:53But you know what?
12:54I love chickpeas anyway.
12:55And this is my birthday.
12:57So you decide.
12:58You're the chef.
12:59That's such a lovely dress.
13:02Here.
13:04I'd hate it if you got something on it.
13:06Oh, too late.
13:06Mine spit up on it last time I wore it.
13:08Isn't that funny?
13:09I think all my dresses had spit up on them.
13:13There you go.
13:17Is this party started yet?
13:20Hi, honey.
13:21Oh, dear.
13:23One, two, three.
13:30Hello.
13:32Oh.
13:34Kevin never mentioned this.
13:35I mean, a tongue stud, I can sort of understand.
13:41But this, well, that's got hurt.
13:44Not to mention getting it, you know, installed.
13:49So is that supposed to enhance pleasure and for who?
13:52Apparently it worked for Queen Victoria.
13:55Come again?
13:56It's called a Prince Albert.
13:58She liked him to wear tight pants.
14:00The ring was attached by a strap to his thigh,
14:03thus enabling a smooth trouser line.
14:06How do you know all this stuff?
14:09I read a lot.
14:11Yeah, right.
14:14You know what I've been noticing a lot lately?
14:16A lot of guys coming in with their balls shaved.
14:19What's that all about?
14:23Actually, it makes them more sensitive.
14:26You know, for oral stimulation.
14:29Besides, no one likes getting pubic hair stuck in their teeth.
14:36Do you want to ask me if I shave my balls?
14:39Uh, no.
14:40Not really.
14:41No, I'm happy to tell you.
14:42I am.
14:42And I do shave.
14:43Have to.
14:44A lot of hair down there.
14:45Keith doesn't.
14:46Have to.
14:47Anything else you want to know?
14:48Now is the time.
14:49Nope.
14:49I'm good.
14:54In 1982, Ronald Reagan's deregulation of the nation's mental hospitals left thousands of
15:00former inpatients homeless.
15:02I believe these incapacitated victims of greed deserve to voice their dissent.
15:07So, I spent two nights roaming the streets of New York City in the dead of winter, asking
15:12them to wipe their asses with this flag.
15:17When this piece was unveiled, a group of, quote, patriots, unquote, ripped it from the
15:22walls of the Whitney Museum, took it to the streets, and burned it.
15:26That I was able to motivate these right-wing assholes into actually burning an American flag.
15:31Now this, this is what I consider to be the highlight of my career.
15:39So, what do you think?
15:40I think he's amazing.
15:42Amazing?
15:42He's so, like, unafraid and so committed to what he believes in.
15:48You should meet him.
15:49Come on.
15:52Why the hell not?
15:54Stop hitting on my students, you overrated piece of shit.
15:56Bite my ass, you Nazi prick.
16:02Scott, I'd like you to meet Claire Fisher and Russell Corrin.
16:05Two very promising first years.
16:07Oh.
16:07It's a real honor to meet you, sir.
16:09Yeah, totally.
16:12Do yourselves a favor and give up now.
16:14Unless, of course, you're willing to live as outlaws, because this is a culture where
16:17art is not only a dirty word, it's a fucking crime.
16:20Now, I'm starving, I'm thirsty, and more importantly, I am your guest.
16:24Why don't you two join us?
16:26Oh, seriously?
16:27Claire.
16:28An artist never questions her right to experience everything the world has to offer.
16:32Never.
16:34Okay.
16:36Maybe we can do as much damage tonight as we did in Antwerp.
16:38Hope you got better health insurance this time.
16:41Okay, I'm officially scared.
16:43Don't let them see that.
16:45Oh, no.
16:46That's my...
16:47That's the good, good China.
16:48Yes.
16:49We never use the good, good China.
16:50Then what's it for?
16:53But we hardly ever use the good China.
16:55Oh, do you want me to put this back and use the good China?
16:58If that isn't the good China, then what is it?
17:00The good, good China.
17:04What the hell?
17:05Let's use the good, good China for once in my lifetime.
17:07Yippee.
17:09Bettina, this is my daughter-in-law, Lisa.
17:11Hi.
17:11I've heard a lot about you.
17:13Oh, don't worry, it's all good.
17:14She liked you a hell of a lot better than the one before you.
17:17Hey, Fisher, happy birthday!
17:19Goodness, but you didn't have to do this.
17:21Now, don't even think about returning it, okay?
17:23Because there's no receipt, if you catch my drift.
17:26Okay, now, come on, we have to move this table.
17:28Why?
17:28Because we're going to dance.
17:30Oh, heavens no, we don't dance in this family.
17:32Ruth Fisher, we're going to celebrate you tonight, whether you like it or not.
17:35Now, go put on your new clothes.
17:38All right, thank you.
17:40Help me move it up against the window.
17:41Don't you think we should wait until after dinner?
17:43Oh, hell, honey, I'll be too wasted by then.
17:46Oh, and I brought some music.
17:48I hope you weren't planning on listening to this Lilith Fair crap all night long.
17:52Ready?
17:52One, two, three.
17:54Whoa, asshole, being an artist is not about being right all the time.
17:57Being an artist is resigning oneself to a life of massacre.
18:00Okay, okay, just answer me this.
18:03Why are you an artist?
18:04Because I'm angry!
18:06Ew!
18:07Disgusting!
18:08Why do you have to be angry about you and your fucking grants?
18:10I don't use that grant money to make art.
18:12I give it away.
18:12Yes, but everybody knows that it was your shit on the flag because you were too fucking scared to actually
18:16go there.
18:17Yes, because you have nothing original to say.
18:18You never did.
18:19No, you lie to talk to politics because you have nothing original to say.
18:22There is nothing original to say.
18:24It's all been said before.
18:25Go to Hollywood, Dad.
18:27That is so pathetic.
18:28That is so fucking American.
18:30Is there anything more infuriating than the moral vanity of your own trash?
18:34That's what you want to make.
18:35You're a good friend.
18:36You're a good friend.
18:37You're a good friend.
18:37Fuck you, you're a good friend.
18:37And you're a good friend.
18:39You're a good friend.
18:39You're a good friend.
18:40You're a good friend.
18:40Welcome to Epcot, kids.
18:42I would rip your dick off and force feed it to you if I didn't think you would like it
18:46so much.
18:46Fantastic, great.
18:49I so fucking love you, you stupid bald peasants.
18:52Prove it.
18:52Buy us another round.
18:57And why are you an artist?
19:01Um, because, because I have, um, a lot of pain.
19:10Good.
19:11Good.
19:13Pain is good for an artist.
19:14Bullshit, bullshit!
19:16Adolescent romanticism, all artists must suffer.
19:20God, you are fucking beautiful.
19:24Your skin, like Carrara marble.
19:30Is this young man your lover?
19:32No.
19:33No.
19:35Why the hell not?
19:38Maybe Russell doesn't think she's beautiful.
19:42I think she's very beautiful.
19:46And why are you an artist?
19:51Because I don't have a fucking choice.
19:55If I can't create art, I don't want to live.
20:02Atta boy.
20:04Why do you validate these infantile notions?
20:08I'll tell you why.
20:08Because you want them to love you.
20:10Because I want them to trust their own vision.
20:12Something which you have none of.
20:14A beast.
20:15And you want them to love you.
20:16Can I get you anything else?
20:18My friend will have a shot of Uzo with a big dollop of shit in it.
20:27And our room opens directly out onto the pool.
20:29And the dregs of humanity from the looks of it.
20:32And that's the Sunday's smorgasbord price.
20:34They come for the breakfast burrito and the free shuttle to the outlet mall.
20:38I never really understood the concept of a breakfast burrito.
20:42Okay, so where are all the x-rated ones?
20:45You leave those at home?
20:46Oh, you gotta go to the internet and pay $9.99 a month for those.
20:53Oh, poor David always looks so funny in a bathing suit.
20:56I do not look funny in a bathing suit.
20:59Actually, you do.
21:03She's asleep?
21:04Yeah, please.
21:05You, on the other hand, do not look funny.
21:08But, Gina, I'm just flirting.
21:13You're barking up the wrong tree, Lee.
21:15Who wants coffee?
21:16For God's sake, Lisa, would you stop waiting on us?
21:19You must sit down.
21:20You deserve a break after that scrumptious meal.
21:22This is David and the Jennifer is being out late.
21:25Oh, my God.
21:27And now I get the attraction.
21:30Yeah, he's a hottie.
21:31Oh, I almost forgot.
21:36Happy birthday.
21:38Oh, dear.
21:39You really shouldn't have.
21:40Ruth, shut up.
21:42It's just a little something I thought of at the last minute.
21:48For my mother-in-law on her special day,
21:52this coupon is redeemable for one free foot massage.
21:56Love, Lisa.
21:57Nice.
21:58Oh!
21:59Oh!
22:00Oh!
22:02What happened to the bath salts?
22:03It just felt so impersonal.
22:05Can I have it now?
22:06You want it now?
22:07Yes, please.
22:08I love massages.
22:10Since when?
22:11Since yesterday.
22:12Please?
22:13If you want to go into the sun porch,
22:14maybe you'll be more comfortable.
22:17Come on!
22:18Maybe we'll all end up naked.
22:21Well, I would bet on that.
22:23Well, I would.
22:24Does this party seem a little weird to you?
22:26On a scale of one to ten?
22:29Ninety.
22:37So, what do you really think of his work?
22:42I think parts of it.
22:44Not really, though.
22:46It's kind of on the nose.
22:48It's way too on the nose.
22:52Good.
22:54Because every nasty thing I said to him earlier
22:56was the absolute truth.
22:58And every flattering thing was a lie.
23:02Oh, you didn't say too much that was flattering.
23:07You are a brilliant artist, Claire.
23:10The piece you did last week in the studio
23:12was better than anything Smith has done in the last ten years.
23:18Really?
23:19Absolutely.
23:22What about you, Russell?
23:25You're going to be successful beyond your wildest dreams.
23:29You honestly think so?
23:32Would I lie to you?
23:34I might.
23:37But who gives a fuck?
23:39The world is going to love you.
23:41That's why no matter what,
23:42you cannot care what other people think.
23:44No, I don't.
23:45I don't care what other people think.
23:46Phony baloney, caca shit.
23:49Everybody your age cares about what other people think.
23:52You don't even know what you think yourself.
23:56I have to be.
24:05I'm serious about you, Claire.
24:09Russell is good.
24:10He's going to make a lot of money.
24:13But you,
24:15your talent is epic.
24:17It's like the tale of a comet.
24:20You can change the world.
24:22Shut up.
24:23Oh, God.
24:25I'm so envious of you.
24:30You see the world with your own eyes.
24:33Do you know what a rare and precious gift that is?
24:36No.
24:41And God created beauty.
24:43And then he retired.
24:48Promise me you'll do great things in your life.
24:50Nothing less.
24:52Promise me.
24:54I promise.
24:57All right.
24:58Let's get out of here and leave that imbecile with a tab.
25:02Yes.
25:04Yes.
25:07Yes.
25:08Yes.
25:09Yes.
25:11Yes.
25:11Yes.
25:12Yes.
25:12Yes.
25:13Yes.
25:14Yes.
25:15Yes.
25:15Yes.
25:15Yes.
25:16Yes.
25:20Oh, my God.
25:21Yes.
25:22Yes.
25:23Yes.
25:24Yes.
25:25Yes.
25:25Well, you never give me a foot massage.
25:27Yes.
25:29Yes.
25:30Yes.
25:31Yes.
25:32Yes.
25:33Yes.
25:33Yes.
25:33Yes.
25:33Why couldn't you never give me a foot massage?
25:35Because you never ask.
25:39This is really weird.
25:43Just remember this dream I had.
25:46It was about a month ago, I guess.
25:49I was getting a foot massage.
25:51And I think you all know I have extremely ticklish feet.
25:55And you were all there. I mean, not you, Bettina, not you, Keith.
25:58No offense, but everyone else, you were there.
26:01Lisa, David, and Claire.
26:04Anyway, there I am. I'm getting this foot massage.
26:06I mean, I can't remember who was giving it to me.
26:07I think it may have been, uh...
26:09I think it may have been Dad.
26:13Oh, yeah, and I'm holding Maya, and she's really slippery.
26:15And she's just squirming like a pig.
26:22Oh!
26:24Oh!
26:34And she's squirming like a pig, and then what?
26:38I...
26:38I don't remember the rest of it, except that, uh...
26:43I could never find my shoes.
26:45I read somewhere that every person in your dream is actually you.
26:50I could check on the baby.
26:54Did you know that there are more bones in the feet than there are in the rest of the entire
26:57body?
26:58I didn't know that.
27:00But now that you say it, I totally believe it.
27:04Thank you, dear.
27:06That's the nicest thing anyone's done for me in a very long time.
27:10It was my pleasure.
27:11It's just my little way of saying thank you for letting us live here.
27:14Well, of course.
27:15You're family.
27:16Bye.
27:33Bye.
27:37Bye, hello.
27:40Bye, bye.
27:44Okay, nobody touches anything.
27:47I love it!
27:49Oh my, it's very large.
27:52I've always wanted to see the Great Wall of China.
27:54So have I. We should go.
27:56What the hell is this?
27:58The scenic designer for L.A. Lyric Opera created this for the funeral of his lover.
28:03It figures.
28:04What figures?
28:05Only a gay man would build a fucking opera set for his lover's funeral.
28:10I think it cheapens their whole relationship.
28:12Oh, don't be such a snob. It's sweet.
28:15You better be prepared to build me something like this when I go.
28:18Want something involving Steve McQueen on a motorcycle?
28:21Yeah, an entire P.O.W. barracks. Get over here.
28:25What?
28:27Oh, come on. What'd you lose now?
28:30Oh, it's unbelievable.
28:33What'd I miss?
28:35You and, um, me and Lisa are going on vacation to China together.
28:40Oh, me, me, me, me, me too, me too. Can I come?
28:43Maybe you drunk?
28:44It's okay. I have, like, four days' worth of milk in the freezer.
28:47Uh-huh.
28:49Why'd you change your shirt?
28:51Oh, it just spilled something on the oven.
28:53You're such a klutz.
28:55But you're my klutz.
28:56Oh, no, I'm gonna go now.
28:58I'm dizzy.
29:01You smell like Listerine.
29:03Oh, yeah, yeah.
29:05I'm dying.
29:08I'm dying.
29:10His name was Simon Rodia, and he spent 33 years working on them.
29:14And when he felt they were finished, he gave the deed to his house to a neighbor, packed up and
29:20moved away.
29:21Wow.
29:22They're amazing.
29:23He put everything into them.
29:25Whatever he'd find on his way walking to and from work.
29:29Steel rods, seashells, pottery, glass, old boots, corn cobs.
29:35He must have been out of his mind.
29:38Well, he's a construction worker, but, I mean, he was a real artist.
29:42Well, I know real artists are out of their mind.
29:49Yeah?
29:50You think so?
29:52Look at Olivier and Scott Smith.
29:54Yeah.
29:56Van Gogh cut off an ear.
30:04It's so weird.
30:05What?
30:07I mean, every single person at our school thinks they're gonna be successful, right?
30:11Otherwise, they wouldn't even be doing this.
30:13Yeah.
30:14But, I mean, what is success?
30:17Is it just money?
30:18Or fame?
30:20Or is it like the critics loving you?
30:22Or is it...
30:22Is it you knowing that you've done good work?
30:26Or what?
30:33I mean, this is a fucking masterpiece.
30:36But maybe the guy who made it just thought it was shit.
30:39And...
30:39And now no one even knows his name.
30:41Simon Rodia.
30:45God.
30:46I feel like such a phony.
30:48Why are you fucking brilliant?
30:51Because I can't imagine ever being this dedicated or this consumed by anything.
30:57Maybe you just haven't found whatever it is that's worth cutting off an ear for.
31:02I never cut off my fucking ear. Never.
31:06Van Gogh did it for love.
31:08He did it because he was totally insane.
31:12Well, it's only an ear.
31:15You know, it's not like you can hear out of it.
31:17I mean, there was still a hole there.
31:28It's almost two.
31:31Oh, my God.
31:34I'm not even tired, are you?
31:40No.
31:48So, I'm a badass.
31:50Don't touch me.
31:54It's only one girl.
32:02It is not like me.
32:04It's okay.
32:06Oh, my God, last time.
32:08So, you know what?
32:09It's already dead.
32:10Oh, I'm gonna be here for some mess.
32:24Party pooper.
32:27How come you're not upstairs embarrassing yourself with everybody else?
32:31I don't know.
32:35Want a little time to yourself?
32:39I know this great little Indian restaurant in Hollywood.
32:42The owner will give you the room upstairs.
32:45All you have to do is bury his wife for free.
32:48Yeah.
32:50I'm not quite there yet.
32:52Won't be long.
32:54You're a funeral director, which you never wanted to be, just like your old man.
32:58You married a woman that you knocked up because you thought it was the right thing to do,
33:01just like your old man.
33:04You want one?
33:07No thanks.
33:09So when you wake up, you're gonna throw away that pack you already have?
33:12Probably.
33:16I'm not you.
33:17You just keep telling yourself that.
33:19I'm not shut down.
33:21I'm not 500 fucking million miles away.
33:24I haven't given up.
33:27I love my family.
33:34Bloody boy.
33:36You think I would have stuck around if I didn't love mine?
34:01Check this out.
34:04Ambiguous Figure Between Curtains by Olivier Castro Stahl.
34:09That is so intense.
34:11It's part of the permanent collection of the Contemporary Arts Center in Cincinnati.
34:16Reminds me of Francis Bacon a little.
34:20Oh my god.
34:22What, he was only 20 when he made this?
34:23That means we have like a year to produce something this good.
34:27I think it's really cool you live in a funeral home.
34:31Believe me, it's not.
34:32Are you kidding?
34:34Jealous.
34:35It's totally weird.
34:38And excellent.
34:40And perfect for when they write your biography.
34:46I'm not gay, you know.
34:50What?
34:51I'm not.
34:53Gay.
34:56Who said anything about you being gay?
34:59Well, you thought I was.
35:02Most people think I am, but I'm not.
35:07Okay.
35:09And I don't even know what it is.
35:11And guys hit on me like all the fucking time.
35:14Well, it's probably because you're hot.
35:19You think I'm hot?
35:21I do.
35:25Really?
35:27This is, uh...
35:29Because usually I get, uh...
35:30It's cute.
35:31No.
35:32You're way more than cute.
35:34I am.
35:35Definitely.
35:38So you didn't think I was gay?
35:43I thought you might be.
35:45Well, I'm not.
35:48I think we've just established that.
35:52Okay.
36:19You're welcome.
36:40I did it exactly the way Bob would have.
36:45I always needed his lighting to make me look good.
36:54Thank you all for joining me today in celebrating Bob's life.
36:59We're all so lucky to have experienced the joy of knowing him.
37:06And I'm not just referring to the joy of knowing him biblically,
37:10although a lot of you here have experienced that as well.
37:14I know, because I was there.
37:21I never thought that I'd be in a relationship at all.
37:29I thought I didn't have what it takes.
37:33That no one could possibly love me enough to stick around.
37:42But Bob did.
37:46He stuck around.
37:49And so did I.
37:53And for 22 years,
37:56we shared our hearts,
37:59our bodies,
38:02our souls.
38:06It wasn't always easy.
38:10It wasn't always fun.
38:13But it was always worth it.
38:17I don't know what I did in a previous life,
38:20but to quote Julie Andrews as Maria von Trapp,
38:24it must have been something good.
38:29because I've been rewarded a thousandfold in this life.
38:37But I believe a lot,
38:45Well,
38:46I've just been iquit of love,
38:47but to so much.
38:52My sonniad,
38:55That's my sonniad.
38:55That's my sonniad,
38:56and my sonniad.
39:03Tu pure, oh principessa, nella tua frera stanza
39:13Corri le stelle e tremano d'amore e risperanza
39:31Ma il mio mistero inchiuso in me
39:37Il nome mio nessun sabrĂ
39:43L'anno sulla tua boca
39:49L'anno sulla tua boca
39:53L'anno sulla tua boca
40:21Do you think your mother had fun last night?
40:24Are you kidding me?
40:26I haven't seen her that happy in, well, maybe ever
40:32You know, it was a great thing you did, honey
40:35I'm really proud of you
40:39And I'm really proud of us
40:41For what?
40:42For making this work.
40:44For being present, for showing up each day.
40:47For being committed to being a family.
40:50Is it that hard for you?
40:52No, no, no, of course not.
40:53I thought this was what you wanted.
40:55It is what I want.
40:56Are you sure?
40:57Of course.
40:57I mean, like, totally sure, 100%, absolutely, no doubts whatsoever?
41:04I'm sure.
41:07Oh, God, Nate, I love you so much, it terrifies me.
41:13Do you think you might be able to run by Whole Foods for me sometime tonight?
41:16Yeah, I'll go right now.
41:17You will?
41:17Yeah.
41:18The list is on the fridge, in the main house.
41:20Okay.
41:28I won't be long.
41:32So how do you know Dennis Morrow, Lonnie?
41:34When he isn't spray-painting walls or jumping off the pier, he's president of Green Earth.
41:37Lonnie was one of the founders of Green Earth in the late 80s.
41:39Are you home, really?
41:42Am I?
41:43How was your day?
41:45It was okay.
41:47How was yours?
41:49Not unusual.
41:58Hey, what's wrong?
42:07I want us to last.
42:16I want us to stay together.
42:19Okay.
42:23I just want it to be worth it.
42:50How was your birthday party?
42:54You know what?
42:55I thought it was going to be awful.
42:58But it was truly one of the finest evenings I ever spent.
43:02Wow.
43:02I'm sorry I missed it.
43:04Lisa gave me a foot massage.
43:06It was heavenly.
43:08I got a little tipsy.
43:10We danced.
43:12Okay.
43:13I'm really sorry I missed it.
43:15I saved you a piece of birthday cake.
43:17It's in the fridge.
43:18Thanks.
43:19How was your guest artist lecture?
43:22Oh.
43:23It was...
43:26Actually, it was truly one of the finest evenings I've ever spent.
43:30We went out afterwards.
43:31Me, Russell, and our teacher.
43:32And then this artist.
43:33And I'm not even sure what happened.
43:36But I just had this, like, glimpse of what might be possible.
43:39And for whatever reason, the world just seemed, like, really open.
43:43And interesting.
43:44And not totally screwed up.
43:45And I don't know.
43:47I don't know.
43:48I just felt really happy.
43:58Mom, would you like to go to a museum with me today?
44:02I would love nothing more.
44:05Should I make lunch first?
44:07No, let's go out.
44:08We can go to Nettie's.
44:09It'll be my treat.
44:10Like, for your birthday.
44:11Well, thank you, Claire.
44:13I was just going to put this table back where it was.
44:15Oh, want me to help?
44:18No?
44:19We can do it later.
44:20Bye.
44:21Bye.
44:21Bye.
44:23Bye.
44:23Bye.
44:24Bye.
44:26Bye.
44:28Bye.
