00:02:17It's okay.
00:02:18It's okay.
00:02:20It's okay.
00:02:22Let me help her.
00:02:50Let me help her.
00:02:57This is Napoli.
00:02:59Good fun.
00:03:01There are places to divert you.
00:03:03There are places that are poor.
00:03:20I'm looking for the concert.
00:03:22I think I'm going to drive right by it.
00:03:24There it is.
00:03:28Very funny.
00:03:37I think it's going to be good.
00:03:40It must be.
00:03:50This is called Al Primo Post.
00:03:58Shit.
00:04:00What?
00:04:01I can't find my wallet.
00:04:06Are you in your suitcase?
00:04:07No.
00:04:10Somewhere.
00:04:12Maybe it's in my car.
00:04:24Where did you have it lost?
00:04:27She's lost her purse.
00:04:29Her purse.
00:04:30No.
00:04:30No.
00:04:31No.
00:04:31No.
00:04:31No.
00:04:35No.
00:04:37No.
00:04:37No.
00:04:38No.
00:04:39No.
00:04:40No.
00:04:41No.
00:04:41No.
00:04:48Where did you have it lost?
00:04:50No.
00:04:52The train station I think.
00:04:53The exchange group.
00:04:57Oh Janie.
00:04:59I'm sorry.
00:05:02That bastard at the train station started when you dropped all your stuff.
00:05:08This is 170 not 70.
00:05:11Where do we need to go?
00:05:13We need, we need 70.
00:05:25Here we go.
00:05:35Is this it?
00:05:37Thanks, man.
00:05:45What's that?
00:05:56It's nice.
00:05:59Yes, I have a credit card.
00:06:00The number's on file on my computer.
00:06:04Yes, I have them here.
00:06:07Okay.
00:06:08Five, five, three, three.
00:06:11Seven, six, four, five.
00:06:14Eight, seven, eight, seven.
00:06:16Nine, one, five, seven.
00:06:19Five, seven.
00:06:22Yeah.
00:06:24Expires 12.15.
00:06:26No, she'll definitely need another card sent out immediately.
00:06:29We're here for two weeks.
00:06:32No, I'm working here.
00:06:36Yes, I'll hold.
00:06:39You love how they ask.
00:06:40As if I have a choice.
00:06:42Do you know what I'm gonna try to do while I'm here?
00:06:45Besides learn Italian.
00:06:47I don't know why you think that's so ridiculous.
00:06:50You don't at all.
00:06:51I admire you.
00:06:52I just think it's too late for me.
00:06:55That's not true.
00:06:57You can't teach an old dog new tricks.
00:07:00And besides, what's the point?
00:07:02The whole bloody world speaks English.
00:07:04Well, I...
00:07:06I'm gonna finally transcribe the tapes.
00:07:10Yes.
00:07:12All right.
00:07:15Okay.
00:07:17Well, if you can see it through to the end,
00:07:20I think that's wonderful.
00:07:22What does that mean?
00:07:25Nothing.
00:07:26Nothing?
00:07:28I think it's a fantastic idea, Jen.
00:07:31I always have, you know that.
00:07:36She doesn't sound very supportive.
00:07:40You have my support.
00:07:42I'm sorry if that came out wrong.
00:07:46I just know how emotional listening to them can be,
00:07:49has been, for you.
00:07:51I think enough time has passed.
00:07:53Well, that's great.
00:08:18Why do you think he killed himself?
00:08:25Um...
00:08:26David Foster Wallace?
00:08:29I don't know.
00:08:32You can't get a sense by his writing?
00:08:35You have to read it when I'm done, though.
00:08:43Do you think he recognized a blank infinity,
00:08:46just stretching out?
00:08:49He got to this point, maybe, where it was just day after day after day.
00:08:54I really don't know, Jen.
00:08:56Just so tedious.
00:08:59And then, of course, he felt guilty.
00:09:01Most people think life is too short,
00:09:03and there he was, all the talent in the world,
00:09:05and it wasn't enough.
00:09:05Jen, can I...
00:09:06Can we not talk about this?
00:09:09Just...
00:09:10Just a bit morbid.
00:09:27Love you.
00:09:30Love you.
00:09:31Love you, too.
00:09:47Love you, too.
00:09:50You feel all right?
00:09:52You feel okay?
00:09:54Yeah.
00:09:55You sure?
00:10:01Mm-hm.
00:11:31Are you sure you won't come with?
00:11:33You'll be so busy.
00:11:37I get boring all alone.
00:11:39I think someone should be here in case the card is delivered.
00:11:43True.
00:11:48Then I think I might go out, see what the world has to offer.
00:11:52If you do, leave me a message, okay?
00:11:57It's hard to worry about you.
00:11:59Okay.
00:12:05I've left you some money here.
00:12:09I'll see you later.
00:12:11Have a good day.
00:12:40I'll see you later.
00:12:56I'll see you later.
00:12:56I'll see you later.
00:13:24I'll see you later.
00:14:12We were riding our bikes to school when the Germans started firing at us.
00:14:17We jumped into a hedge.
00:14:19We were terrified, but afterwards we couldn't stop laughing.
00:14:25It feels now as if I'm the only one who remembers that.
00:14:28It's as vivid to me as if it happened yesterday.
00:14:33Oh, hi, Leonard.
00:14:35It's Jane.
00:14:37I decided to take an impromptu trip to Iskia, or, um, Iskia, as they pronounce it.
00:14:43See, I'm learning a little bit.
00:14:45Um, anyway, I'll be home later.
00:14:49I hope you have a good day.
00:14:50Bye.
00:14:51Those friends are all dead now.
00:14:54There's no one left.
00:14:56That's one of my regrets, you know.
00:14:59Sometimes I think I should have had more children, not just your father.
00:15:05You're all alone now that your parents are gone.
00:15:09No brothers, no sisters.
00:15:14I'm upsetting you.
00:15:17Let's talk about something else.
00:15:18You want to ask me more boring questions about the war?
00:15:23All right, then.
00:15:26Uh, scusi.
00:15:27Scusi.
00:15:28Um, the castle?
00:15:30Castle?
00:15:31Parlato inglese?
00:15:33No, no, no, no.
00:15:34No?
00:15:34No.
00:15:35Um, Castello Aureganese?
00:15:39Ah, andare.
00:15:40Andare?
00:15:41Andare?
00:15:41Sì.
00:15:42Ah, grazie.
00:15:44They'd been shot through the neck.
00:15:47The bullet went in one side and came out the other.
00:15:51And there were all these bomb holes filled with water, and he couldn't tell which was the
00:15:55German side and which was the Allied side.
00:15:59When he came home after something like that, you couldn't really complain to him about anything,
00:16:05now could you?
00:16:06I'm actually going there now, to the castle.
00:16:08You speak English now?
00:16:10Yeah.
00:16:10Why, do you think I was Italian?
00:16:11Yeah.
00:16:12Yes!
00:16:13That's great.
00:16:13That's cool.
00:16:14Hey, hey, hey.
00:16:15I used to be an old...
00:16:16Where are you from?
00:16:18London.
00:16:19No, in America.
00:16:20Come on.
00:16:21Maine.
00:16:21No, shit.
00:16:22I'm from Massachusetts.
00:16:23That's crazy.
00:16:24That's weird.
00:16:25Right?
00:16:26Yeah.
00:16:27Vacation?
00:16:28No.
00:16:29Are you?
00:16:30What?
00:16:30Are you here on vacation?
00:16:31Oh.
00:16:35Sorry.
00:16:36I thought you were saying you were on vacation.
00:16:38Me?
00:16:38No.
00:16:40So, come on.
00:16:43My husband is working in Naples.
00:16:45What does he do?
00:16:47He is playing in a concert at the end of the month.
00:16:50Cool.
00:16:51What does he play?
00:16:53Viola.
00:16:54Mm-mm-mm.
00:16:55The viola.
00:16:58Any good?
00:17:00Yes.
00:17:00Very.
00:17:04How do you keep your violin from getting stolen?
00:17:08You put it in a viola case.
00:17:11Right?
00:17:13That's not funny.
00:17:14What's the difference between a viola and a coffin?
00:17:17A coffin has a dead person on the inside.
00:17:20Because viola players are dead?
00:17:22No?
00:17:22Why is a viola solo like premature ejaculation?
00:17:28Because even though you know it's coming, there's nothing you can do about it.
00:17:34I can't help it.
00:17:35I've got this weird autistic mind for jokes, and I went to this music-slash-nerd summer camp
00:17:39when I was like 10, and I played the triangle.
00:17:41Right.
00:17:41And I'm an only child, so, you know, understand.
00:17:46You look too young to be married.
00:17:48Are you newlywed?
00:17:50No.
00:17:52No.
00:18:01Grazie.
00:18:01Grazie.
00:18:02Grazie.
00:18:02Still making me feel like a stalker.
00:18:04Fuck.
00:18:04Come on Italia, por favor.
00:18:06Yes, you have it.
00:18:10Grazie.
00:18:11Grazie.
00:18:13Uno?
00:18:14No.
00:18:15No.
00:18:15All right.
00:18:17Oh, hey, have you got 50 cents?
00:18:21You can catch it.
00:18:25Grazie.
00:18:26Grazie.
00:18:27Grazie.
00:18:49What brought you out of here today?
00:18:51Barry.
00:18:52Ha!
00:18:53Barry.
00:18:54I like it.
00:18:56They have this device down in the basement.
00:18:58It's like a torture cage.
00:19:00They lock you in there until you turn to bones.
00:19:04But can you imagine dying by just sitting there?
00:19:06That would suck.
00:19:13In, like, the 1300s, thousands of families lived in this castle.
00:19:18It must have smelled pretty bad.
00:19:20All those people crammed onto this rock.
00:19:25Wow.
00:19:27I know.
00:19:28I've been coming here every day and it still gets me.
00:19:32If only we could kill off all the tourists.
00:19:35You're a tourist.
00:19:37No, I'm not.
00:19:39I came out here a few months ago with this volunteer organization dedicated to studying
00:19:45the relic populations of dolphins and whales in the Gulf of Naples.
00:19:50I can't tell if you're joking.
00:19:52I'm dead fucking serious.
00:19:55No, I just didn't want to go to college and they paid for me to come over.
00:19:58Four connecting flights, a 72-hour plane ride, but, you know, it was worth it.
00:20:02My first time out of the U.S.
00:20:04How old are you?
00:20:05I'm 19.
00:20:05It's my birthday today.
00:20:07Is it really?
00:20:08Uh-huh.
00:20:09Happy birthday.
00:20:10Thank you very much.
00:20:11Yeah, so I left the program after, like, a month.
00:20:14Fuck the relic dolphins!
00:20:17I just stayed on the island because I have this awesome living situation.
00:20:21I'll tell you the short version.
00:20:22Basically, I used to have ancestors in Ischia, so when I come over, I Facebook the second cousin
00:20:26twice removed.
00:20:27The second cousin twice removed, in case you didn't know, is when one person's great-grandparent
00:20:31is another person's great-great-great-grandparent.
00:20:33I'd love to hear the long version.
00:20:35Sorry.
00:20:36Anyway, so this relative gave me the name of this great-uncle who lives on the island,
00:20:40so I show up, he answers the door, and he's like the oldest fucker I've ever seen.
00:20:45He's pushing easily, pushing a hundred.
00:20:47A hundred?
00:20:48Yeah, if not older.
00:20:50He's, like, deaf and blind and about four feet tall, and he mumbles a couple of things
00:20:53to me in some crazy dialect, ushers me inside, pours me a glass of wine, and leads me to
00:20:58this basement apartment, and, uh, yeah, I never left.
00:21:03I'll fence it.
00:21:14I can't listen to it.
00:21:17It's all you talk to me because I know playing ball.
00:21:53Love teaches me to feel
00:21:55to feed on flames and tears,
00:21:58to turn withered hope green through desire,
00:22:04to re-enslave my heart each time love frees his noble face from that heavy disdain.
00:22:12Who is that?
00:22:14Vittoria Colonna.
00:22:17Ah, the woman who lived here.
00:22:20You read that in your guidebook this morning, didn't you, Jane?
00:22:24Sneaky.
00:22:26Yeah, I've decided to learn Italian by committing to memory all the sonnets she wrote to Michelangelo
00:22:30in English and Italian.
00:22:33I thought Michelangelo was gay.
00:22:35Ah, according to history and the muscular thighs of his sculptures, yes.
00:22:40But that didn't stop her from loving him.
00:22:44Let's hear it then.
00:22:46In Italian.
00:22:48Let's hear the poem.
00:22:50Come on.
00:22:51Okay.
00:22:52Okay.
00:22:53De lacrime a de faco nutria l'alma.
00:22:59Con secca speme rinvedia la voglia.
00:23:05Lega di nuovo il cor quando di scioglia.
00:23:10Segna maggiore la vista tierra ed alma.
00:23:20I'm impressed.
00:23:23You hungry?
00:23:26Why, you gonna take me out?
00:23:28Yeah.
00:23:34All right, then.
00:23:35Okay.
00:23:39Two pastas with the house sauce, please?
00:23:43Red.
00:23:44Red.
00:23:45Uh-huh.
00:23:46Grazie.
00:23:48So you're really not gonna tell me what you do?
00:23:55I write freelance articles about parties and fashion trends in town and country UK.
00:24:01There's something else.
00:24:09I'm writing a book about my grandmother's experiences in rural England, living through two world wars.
00:24:16I recorded her for hours and hours.
00:24:19But now, I don't know.
00:24:24What don't you know?
00:24:27You wanna listen?
00:24:29A little?
00:24:30Yeah.
00:24:31Yeah?
00:24:32Yeah, no, I love to listen.
00:24:49Well, it's tangled up.
00:24:50Not that.
00:24:51Okay.
00:24:57Awful as it was, it made you stronger.
00:25:01These days, people whine about all sorts of things.
00:25:04And I'm not one of those old people who think my time had the only joy and the only problems.
00:25:09We all have our own private wars every era, but it was nothing like it.
00:25:15It really brought people together, the war.
00:25:18We helped each other during that time.
00:25:20We had to laugh.
00:25:22We had to smile.
00:25:23Well, if not for ourselves, then for the people we'd lost.
00:25:27I'll shut that thing off.
00:25:29Would you get it out of my face?
00:25:34That is like, it's like a window in time.
00:25:38The sort of thing you wish you always did before someone died, you know?
00:25:42My husband thinks I'm never gonna finish it.
00:25:45I don't care what anyone thinks.
00:25:48We met while I was recording her.
00:25:51Bonding over granny, huh?
00:25:53Make it sound perverse.
00:25:55That's what it was, right?
00:25:58Buongiorno.
00:25:59Buongiorno.
00:26:00Senori.
00:26:08I got pregnant, so we got married.
00:26:15I lost the baby.
00:26:20I'm sorry.
00:26:44I didn't go back after that to the States.
00:26:52Did you, uh, did you ever hear that story about the red strain?
00:26:58I think I might have.
00:27:00Tell me.
00:27:04It's like this Asian proverb says that anyone you're destined to meet, like, uh, your soulmate, or your family, or,
00:27:15you know, someone you bump into on the street, we're all connected by this red string.
00:27:23It can be tangled or stretched, but it can never be broken.
00:27:32There's this moment in the tape, I'm sitting, waiting in the airport bar for my flight, and I'm talking into
00:27:42the recorder, rambling on about how I'm about to embark on this amazing adventure, and how I'm gonna show World
00:27:50War II from a totally different perspective.
00:27:55But...
00:28:01I don't know if it's that interesting.
00:28:05That's the whole point, isn't it?
00:28:08Keeping it interesting for yourself.
00:28:12Maybe.
00:28:15Maybe I just wanna write about nothing.
00:28:18Everything is nothing.
00:28:21All the best.
00:28:22Un compleanno.
00:28:24Grazie.
00:28:24Grazie.
00:28:28Make a wish.
00:28:31Make it great.
00:28:36Okay.
00:28:40Bravo.
00:28:42Bravo.
00:28:43Bravo.
00:28:43Ego.
00:28:47I got a flash.
00:28:48Woo-hoo.
00:28:52What do you mean?
00:28:54Grab my hand.
00:28:55Wait!
00:28:55Here, go, go!
00:28:56Oh my God!
00:28:56Oh no!
00:29:00What?
00:29:01What do you mean?
00:29:08Hey!
00:29:09Hey!
00:29:10It's the carabinieri!
00:29:12What?
00:29:12It's the police!
00:29:13No!
00:29:13Hey!
00:29:14Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:29:20We can't go back. We can't go back.
00:29:21We've got to rest here.
00:29:23We can't pay back.
00:29:26Oh, God.
00:29:38Hang on.
00:29:39Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:29:42It'd make you feel better if I said I said the whole thing up.
00:29:46Yes, it's true.
00:29:48Is it true?
00:29:50I paid the check when I went to the bathroom.

00:30:08I don't know where we're still running.
00:30:22Oh, my gosh.
00:30:23Yeah.
00:30:28It went up my nose.
00:30:35We come back?
00:30:38Maybe.
00:30:41Maybe it's not a no.
00:30:44And since I don't have a phone, you're gonna have to give me your number.
00:30:49For cheap thrills and future crimes committed.
00:30:52No.
00:30:52No.
00:30:56Fair enough.
00:31:05I've got to go.
00:31:07Catch a fairy.
00:31:12Hey.
00:31:17Why do violists keep their viola cases on their dashboards?
00:31:33Why?

00:42:45I think we'll make it out.
00:42:48It's so sexy and beautiful.
00:43:23I can't do this.
00:43:24What?
00:43:24Why?
00:43:25I can't do this.
00:43:26Why?
00:43:38Do you do this a lot?
00:43:39What?
00:43:40Do you do this a lot?
00:43:42What?
00:43:42Do you seduce women?
00:43:43Is this what you do?
00:43:46You need to be less serious.
00:43:54Don't hurt me.
00:43:58We are not going to be less serious.
00:43:59Don't hurt me.
00:44:07Don't hurt me.
00:44:13Don't hurt me.
00:44:14Don't hurt me.
00:44:16Don't hurt me.
00:45:00There was one boy from Belgium. He was lovely. He had a mustache. My mother hated mustaches. But he was
00:45:12shipped off. I never saw him again.
00:45:19Anyways, I met your grandfather not long after and we got married.
00:45:24Was it love at first sight with grandpa?
00:45:27Love at first sight? Stop that thing.
00:45:30I know. You're home early.
00:45:41I do deserve that.
00:45:45And I just left my husband.
00:45:51Jane, I'm sorry. Just give me a minute. I have a hell of a rest of my day. I've got
00:45:56so much stuff to do.
00:46:00Sorry darling.
00:46:02Hey, do you still want to do something fun tonight?
00:46:04Yeah, absolutely. Lots of dinner. I thought we were just staying here. The two of us. I've just got to
00:46:11work this thing out for tomorrow.
00:46:12Okay.
00:46:13Okay. This is alright.
00:46:43Okay.
00:46:54Okay.
00:46:54Okay.
00:46:57Okay.
00:47:06Leonard.
00:47:10Leonard.
00:47:12Can we talk?
00:47:43Say cheese.
00:47:49You should kind of be in the middle of your mind.
00:47:54Hold on a second.
00:48:06That's what our living room is missing.
00:48:24What did you do?
00:48:25Put my hand over my mouth.
00:48:26You did?
00:48:27What did you do?
00:48:28Just wave.
00:49:00Get your hand over your hands.
00:49:02Let go.
00:49:03Let go.
00:49:04Okay.
00:49:04Thank you very much.
00:49:59Ah!
00:50:01Ah!
00:50:01Ah!
00:50:02Ah!
00:50:02Ah!
00:50:11Do you have any fantasies?
00:50:15I won't.
00:50:18What?
00:50:21Is there anything you want?
00:50:27Just as you are, Jane.
00:50:29Just as you are.
00:50:31You're all I need.
00:50:40You're all I need.
00:50:41Oh.
00:51:59Oh, hi.
00:52:02Did I wake you?
00:52:04No.
00:52:07I think I need to be less serious.
00:52:12Yeah, will you put my pants on?
00:52:17Okay.
00:52:43I think I need to be less serious.
00:52:44I think I need to be less serious.
00:55:49Leonard thought you were lying about those cats.
00:55:53You said that?
00:55:57Were you?
00:55:58They were delicious.
00:56:18You made me feel nervous.
00:56:24You make me feel calm.
00:56:49You want a drink?
00:56:51You want a drink?
00:56:53You want a drink?
01:00:13I know.
01:00:13Jay, whatever you have to say to me, I want to hear it.
01:00:17I've committed myself.
01:00:20People are depending on me.
01:00:21I have to go to work.
01:00:25Okay.
01:01:08That's the thing.
01:01:09That's the thing about struggle.
01:01:22I'm going to make some tea.
01:01:23Do you want some?
01:01:25I'm all right.
01:01:33You go out like that again.
01:01:35Just tell me.
01:01:36No worry.
01:01:39Okay.
01:01:42I can't seem to figure out what's going on in your head.
01:01:59Do you think everything we've been through actually does us any good?
01:02:04in the long run?
01:02:08Or do we just make out struggle to be something meaningful because that's all most of us have?
01:02:26I'll tell you next time we come to Italy to get a proper kitchen.
01:02:39I don't know what you want me to say, Jane.
01:03:02If one little thing had changed in my grandmother's life, I might not be here.
01:03:13Sometimes I worry I'm not honoring her.
01:03:18With the book?
01:03:22No, with my life.
01:03:29This is it, you know.
01:03:31It ends with me.
01:03:38In the harvest time we all went to the field where they were cutting the corn.
01:03:45Everyone was chasing rabbits and then we had our tea in the harvest fields.
01:03:54The horses.
01:03:56The horses.
01:04:01The horses back then, they were kept beautifully.
01:04:05Dad used to dress them all up.
01:04:07Brass things and little horseshoes.
01:04:11He put braids on them.
01:04:14They used to be gorgeous.
01:04:16What are your plans for tomorrow?
01:04:19There was one.
01:04:21Duke.
01:04:23He was a Clydesdale I used to ride down to the marshes.
01:04:27Every night when he finished working.
01:04:33They were lovely days, really.
01:04:42They're gone.
01:04:43For me.
01:04:44Jane.
01:04:47But not for you.
01:04:48Jane.
01:04:50You know, it's different for you.
01:04:52In some ways it's easier.
01:04:54You haven't got the war.
01:04:55People don't die as much as they did back then.
01:04:58But in some ways, it's more disjointed.
01:05:04You've got to make your own life.
01:05:07One that you love and you can't be afraid of the time.
01:05:13Time is shiftable.
01:05:24There are moments in my life that I would trade 60 years to have back again.
01:05:29That's the truth.
01:05:32You'll know the truth when you find it.
01:05:34It'll come to you like something you've known before rather than something you're learning for the first time.
01:05:43Oh, sorry.
01:05:44It's okay.
01:05:45Ah!
01:05:47What is it?
01:05:48Oh!
01:05:51Oh, you...
01:05:53You alright?
01:05:56You okay?
01:05:57Yeah, I stung my toe.
01:06:00It's bleeding.
01:06:02It's fine.
01:06:03It's fine, it's fine, it's fine.
01:06:07Are you finishing it?
01:06:09Yes?
01:06:09Oh, fuck.
01:06:20I met these backpackers last night, Frank and Elsa.
01:06:24She's French, he's German.
01:06:26They're going to Tibet.
01:06:28And I'm going with them.
01:06:32I want you to come with me.
01:06:39Damn!
01:07:03Yes, that's this?
01:07:05Thanks.
01:07:05Aah!
01:07:38Hi.
01:07:39Hi.
01:07:41How are you?
01:07:43I'm lacking.
01:07:45Long day.
01:07:47God, why are they not?
01:07:51I don't think I'm chomped at doing another skill like this.
01:07:57How's the writing going?
01:08:01I'm feeling inspired.
01:08:05It's fantastic.
01:08:08I think I've figured out the key to finishing the project.
01:08:15Are you listening?
01:08:19You found the key to finishing this project.
01:08:30The water here tastes so funny.
01:08:36Have you ever cheated on me?
01:08:38Oh, Jane.
01:08:40Have you?
01:08:40Can we not?
01:08:42Have you?
01:08:49Absolutely not.
01:08:50Why did you take such a long time to answer that?
01:08:53Because I'm sick.
01:08:56Of what, Leonard? Of it being so hard?
01:09:00Yes.
01:09:01Tedious?
01:09:07I hate talking about sex with you.
01:09:11Is that what we're talking about?
01:09:12Normal people talk about sex, Leonard.
01:09:15And we don't?
01:09:17There's just huge vacant lots that we don't discuss.
01:09:23Like what?
01:09:24Is there anything you want to ask me?
01:09:26Why?
01:09:27Is there anything you want to tell me?
01:09:28I just want to connect.
01:09:33So you don't feel that we're connected?
01:09:35Do you?
01:09:38I love you.
01:09:47I get it, Leonard.
01:09:49I get it.
01:09:51It's always been this big, serious, grave thing for us.
01:09:54Sex has consequences.
01:09:55Life and death.
01:09:56Mostly death.
01:09:57Jane, please.
01:09:58Let me guess.
01:09:59You don't want to talk about it?
01:10:00No.
01:10:00That's not what I'm saying.
01:10:01You're just...
01:10:02Do you want to have children, Leonard?
01:10:03Of course I did.
01:10:05Not did.
01:10:06Do you want to have children?
01:10:09So did you.
01:10:12But...
01:10:13Say it.
01:10:15Jane.
01:10:16Say it.
01:10:18I can't have children, Leonard.
01:10:22I never will.
01:10:24And if we keep trying, they keep dying.
01:10:27Again.
01:10:27And again.
01:10:28And again.
01:10:29Please.
01:10:29Jane.
01:10:32How does that make you feel?
01:10:38It's not your father.
01:10:39How does it make you feel, Leonard?
01:10:41How does it make you feel?
01:10:43You will never be a father.
01:10:47We can adopt.
01:10:48That's not what you want.
01:10:50Is it?
01:10:52Is that what you want?
01:10:54Hmm?
01:10:56Because I think about it all the time.
01:11:00That the one thing you always wanted, I will never be able to give you.
01:11:15What are you trying to do, Jane?
01:11:16I just want to know that there's a reason for it all.
01:11:29You're not curious about me, Leonard.
01:11:33Not really.
01:11:35What do you want me to know?
01:11:36You shouldn't have to ask.
01:11:38I feel as if you want me to be someone I'm not.
01:11:43Someone that I've never been.
01:11:48I'm leaving you.
01:11:51I've been seeing someone else.
01:11:58See?
01:12:00Caleb.
01:12:01That kid.
01:12:02Yes.
01:12:04That kid?
01:12:05That child?
01:12:06That kid you've known for two days?
01:12:07It's been longer than that.
01:12:08Please tell me you're joking.
01:12:11Time is shiftable.
01:12:12I don't get it.
01:12:13Leonard.
01:12:15I don't get it.
01:12:16He's asked me to travel with him.
01:12:18Are you sleeping with him?
01:12:21What do you think?
01:12:29I kept waiting for you to see it.
01:12:31To smell it.
01:12:32To sense it!
01:12:33So what?
01:12:34I failed your test?
01:12:36You don't see me!
01:12:57I'm sorry.
01:12:58For what?
01:13:01I'm sorry.
01:13:01For what?
01:13:02I'm sorry.
01:13:02I shouldn't have done that.
01:13:03No.
01:13:03For losing my temper.
01:13:05I shouldn't have done that.
01:13:05You had every right to lose your temper!
01:13:07No, no, no, no.
01:13:08If you think that this is what's going to make you feel better, then you should go.
01:13:12You should go with him.
01:13:14You've been through a terrible, terrible thing, Jane.
01:13:18No.
01:13:18That is not what this is about.
01:13:19Of course it is.
01:13:20You don't love me anymore, Leonard.
01:13:22You don't love me!
01:13:24That's rubbish.
01:13:26This is your ticket.
01:13:28The day after my performance, meet me at the train station.
01:13:34Our train is at 4.30.
01:13:37We'll go home together.
01:13:40I want you to do what you need to do.
01:13:47And then come back to me.
01:13:50No questions asked.
01:13:52No guilt.
01:13:56This is good.
01:13:57That's good, Mulsive.
01:14:12You and of your commission.
01:14:26You do everything,
01:14:26you.
01:14:26That's good.
01:15:18Hi.
01:15:21Hi.
01:15:33You want some?
01:15:36Oh, thanks.
01:16:18Frank and Elsa are coming over in a couple of hours.
01:16:21Frank bought a car, so we're going to head out in a couple of weeks or so.
01:16:34We're thinking about driving through Romania and Ukraine and down through Russia and through
01:16:43Kazakhstan and then straight to Tibet.
01:16:47We're going to head out in a couple of days.
01:16:49We're going to head out.
01:16:54I'm going to head out.
01:17:39Let's go.
01:17:42Good luck.
01:17:45Bye.
01:17:46Bye.
01:17:48Bye.
01:17:54Bye.
01:18:12Bye.
01:18:27Jayes!
01:18:31We've got to come over to this side.
01:18:34The train's going to be here in a minute.
01:18:58It's four in the morning, the end of December.
01:19:05I'm riding you now just to see you're there.
01:19:10New York is cold, but I like where I live.
01:19:17There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening.
01:19:24I hear that you're building your house deep in the desert.
01:19:36Are you living for nothing now?
01:19:40Hope you're keeping some kind of record.
01:19:45Yes.
01:19:47And Jane came by with a lock of your hair.
01:19:56She said that you gave it to her.
01:20:02That night when you planned to go clear.
01:20:07I wouldn't want to live to be 100.
01:20:09Why not?
01:20:10I'm not telling you why not.
01:20:13Did you ever go clear?
01:20:15No, shut that thing off.
01:20:18The last time we saw you, you looked so much older.
01:20:24Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder.
01:20:30You'd been to the station to meet every train.
01:20:36But she never turned up.
01:20:39I mean, Lily Marlene.
01:20:42So you treated some woman to a flake of your life.
01:20:56And when she got home, she was nobody's wife.
01:21:06Well, I see you there with arrows in your teeth.
01:21:17One more thin gypsy thief.
01:21:23See, well, I see Jane's awake.
01:21:28Mm-hmm.
01:21:33She sends her regards.
01:21:39And what can I tell you? Oh, what can I tell you? What can I possibly say?
01:21:52I guess that I miss you. I guess I forgive you. I'm glad that you stood in my way.
01:22:06And if you ever come by here, be it for Jane or for me, I want you to know your
01:22:19enemy is sleeping. I want you to know your woman is free. Yes.
01:22:29And thanks for the trouble you took from her eyes. I thought it was there for good. So I never
01:22:48really tried.
01:22:54And Jane came by with a lock in your head. She said that you gave it to her that night
01:23:11when you planned to go clear.
01:23:21Sincerely, a friend.
01:24:22You
