00:01:56.681 --> 00:02:00.117
Oh, I actually
don't know where to begin.

00:02:00.151 --> 00:02:04.656
Suddenly, I had to stop work
on the novel I was writing

00:02:04.689 --> 00:02:06.458
and accompany my wife

00:02:06.491 --> 00:02:09.628
to the San Sebastián
Film Festival.

00:02:09.661 --> 00:02:12.330
Well Sue had to go.

00:02:12.364 --> 00:02:14.999
For her, it was work.

00:02:15.032 --> 00:02:18.303
She represented
several clients who were there

00:02:18.336 --> 00:02:21.071
and did the press for them.

00:02:21.773 --> 00:02:25.710
Now the ironic part was that,
uh, you know,

00:02:25.744 --> 00:02:29.046
years ago
when I taught my film class,

00:02:29.079 --> 00:02:32.717
the thought of going
to any film festival

00:02:32.751 --> 00:02:35.953
would've been
very exciting to me.

00:02:36.388 --> 00:02:41.593
But, uh, film festivals
are no longer what they were.

00:02:41.626 --> 00:02:45.397
I mean, it was no longer
what I was teaching.

00:02:45.430 --> 00:02:51.001
I taught Cinema as Art:
the Great European Masters.

00:02:51.035 --> 00:02:55.239
I only went because
I couldn't shake the suspicion

00:02:55.272 --> 00:02:59.311
that she had a little crush on
this bullshit movie director

00:02:59.344 --> 00:03:01.346
she did publicity for.

00:03:12.757 --> 00:03:15.125
In my new movie
on the Eichmann trial,

00:03:15.159 --> 00:03:18.195
you would be perfect
to play Hannah Arendt.

00:03:18.229 --> 00:03:20.465
You know, tonight at 8:00,
there's a special screening

00:03:20.499 --> 00:03:21.600
of an old
Three Stooges movie,

00:03:21.633 --> 00:03:23.234
the director's cut.

00:03:23.267 --> 00:03:24.134
In the movie,

00:03:24.168 --> 00:03:26.605
were all your orgasms
special effects?

00:03:26.638 --> 00:03:28.607
Oh, look.
There's Philippe.

00:03:28.640 --> 00:03:31.443
Oh, my God, I love his look.
He is so chic.

00:03:31.476 --> 00:03:33.311
- ...the idea of myself
- Uh-huh.

00:03:33.345 --> 00:03:34.579
And sometimes, you know,

00:03:34.613 --> 00:03:38.617
the public, you know, gives you
a different idea of yourself.

00:03:38.650 --> 00:03:39.784
Now, remember,

00:03:39.818 --> 00:03:42.821
you guys met that time at
that screening at Universal.

00:03:42.854 --> 00:03:45.624
You got in that stupid argument
over <i>Bringing Up Baby.</i>

00:03:45.657 --> 00:03:47.224
He loved it and you didn't.

00:03:47.258 --> 00:03:49.193
And he loved <i>Some Like It Hot</i>
and you didn't.

00:03:49.226 --> 00:03:50.762
And he loved
<i>It's a Wonderful Life</i>

00:03:50.795 --> 00:03:52.597
with the rest of the world,
and you didn't.

00:03:52.631 --> 00:03:53.798
- Mm-hm.
- Do you remember?

00:03:53.832 --> 00:03:56.200
And then he made that joke
and he called you the Grinch.

00:03:56.233 --> 00:03:58.670
- I remember the joke.
- Mm-hm.

00:03:58.703 --> 00:04:00.839
Everyone in Europe
loves your new movie.

00:04:00.872 --> 00:04:03.240
It was a big hit
at the screening this morning.

00:04:03.274 --> 00:04:06.778
War is hell,
and you came out and said it.

00:04:06.811 --> 00:04:08.547
Well, you know,
some wars are good.

00:04:08.580 --> 00:04:10.615
Some wars are bad.

00:04:10.649 --> 00:04:13.150
You know,
sometimes wars are justified.

00:04:13.183 --> 00:04:15.820
Can you tell us
what your next film will be?

00:04:15.854 --> 00:04:17.355
Well in my next film,

00:04:17.389 --> 00:04:20.124
I'm taking on the turmoil
in the Middle East,

00:04:20.157 --> 00:04:21.593
and, uh,

00:04:21.626 --> 00:04:24.261
hopefully, uh,
offer some solution

00:04:24.295 --> 00:04:27.131
for reconciliation
between the Arabs and Israel.

00:04:27.164 --> 00:04:28.667
It's rumored you had an affair

00:04:28.700 --> 00:04:30.569
with the French
minister's wife.

00:04:30.602 --> 00:04:32.771
I heard that same rumor, yeah.

00:04:33.605 --> 00:04:35.473
The rumor is
you made her pregnant.

00:04:35.507 --> 00:04:36.875
Can you make
any comment on that?

00:04:36.908 --> 00:04:38.142
Okay, that's enough.

00:04:38.175 --> 00:04:39.678
- That's great.
- Thank you.

00:04:39.711 --> 00:04:40.845
He has interviews
all day tomorrow.

00:04:40.879 --> 00:04:42.781
<i>Gracias.</i>
Three full days of interviews.

00:04:42.814 --> 00:04:43.848
Thank you so much. <i>Gracias.</i>

00:04:43.882 --> 00:04:45.684
You have arrived just in time.

00:04:45.717 --> 00:04:47.686
I'm so sorry about that.

00:04:47.719 --> 00:04:49.454
Ah-uh, you know,
you remember Mort, yeah?

00:04:49.487 --> 00:04:51.221
Oh, yes.

00:04:51.255 --> 00:04:52.624
The Grinch.

00:04:52.657 --> 00:04:54.826
Hey, congratulations
on your new film.

00:04:54.859 --> 00:04:56.528
Everyone seems to love it.

00:04:56.561 --> 00:04:58.295
Yeah, but in this day and age,

00:04:58.330 --> 00:05:01.165
you know, any film
that deals with the reality,

00:05:01.198 --> 00:05:03.401
the critics rave about as art.

00:05:03.435 --> 00:05:04.836
Well war is hell.

00:05:04.869 --> 00:05:08.440
I mean,
as far as insights go...

00:05:08.473 --> 00:05:09.808
Okay.

00:05:09.841 --> 00:05:12.276
We should probably go unpack.

00:05:12.310 --> 00:05:14.244
Mm?

00:05:14.278 --> 00:05:16.146
You know,
I'd really appreciate it

00:05:16.180 --> 00:05:17.782
if you kind of
watched yourself.

00:05:17.816 --> 00:05:20.184
Your hostility
is starting to show.

00:05:20.217 --> 00:05:22.721
Well I can't say I relish it,

00:05:22.754 --> 00:05:24.723
being referred to
as the Grinch.

00:05:24.756 --> 00:05:28.393
Well it's just that you put
everything down as "lowbrow."

00:05:28.426 --> 00:05:31.596
Oh, I don't put his stuff
down as lowbrow.

00:05:31.630 --> 00:05:33.197
It's middle-brow.

00:05:33.230 --> 00:05:35.467
I think he's
politically relevant.

00:05:35.500 --> 00:05:38.168
I mean, you heard him talk
about his next movie.

00:05:38.202 --> 00:05:41.473
H-he's going to try to
reconcile the Arabs and Israel.

00:05:41.506 --> 00:05:43.742
Yes, I'm glad he's turning
to science fiction.

00:05:43.775 --> 00:05:44.809
Philippe is so brilliant.

00:05:44.843 --> 00:05:45.877
Christ.

00:05:45.910 --> 00:05:49.347
What is politics?
Politics is totally ephemeral.

00:05:49.381 --> 00:05:50.782
It misses the big questions.

00:05:50.815 --> 00:05:53.718
- What big questions?
- The big questions.

00:05:53.752 --> 00:05:55.219
Like?

00:05:55.252 --> 00:05:56.855
Well...

00:05:57.656 --> 00:05:59.891
"What's it all about?"

00:05:59.924 --> 00:06:02.460
"Is this everything
that there is,

00:06:02.494 --> 00:06:05.295
or is there more?"

00:06:05.530 --> 00:06:06.698
I mean,

00:06:06.731 --> 00:06:08.833
those are the questions
that really matter.

00:06:08.867 --> 00:06:12.236
The things he deals with
are actually trivial,

00:06:12.269 --> 00:06:15.340
although he thinks
they're so profound.

00:06:15.373 --> 00:06:16.775
They're not.

00:06:16.808 --> 00:06:18.910
I mean, we could have
an ideal world politically,

00:06:18.943 --> 00:06:20.244
and we'd still have

00:06:20.277 --> 00:06:23.415
these very same
terrifying questions.

00:06:23.448 --> 00:06:24.616
Oy.

00:06:24.649 --> 00:06:26.551
My heart is starting
to hurt me.

00:06:26.584 --> 00:06:28.285
And here we go.

00:06:28.319 --> 00:06:31.523
Yeah, I know.
You think it's all in the head.

00:06:31.556 --> 00:06:33.223
You're not having
a heart attack, Mort.

00:06:33.257 --> 00:06:35.259
You just ate too many tacos
on the plane.

00:06:35.292 --> 00:06:37.662
Well those tacos
were like barbells.

00:06:37.696 --> 00:06:38.763
Well...

00:06:39.864 --> 00:06:42.500
<i>When I went
to sleep that night,</i>

00:06:42.534 --> 00:06:45.235
<i>I had an odd dream.</i>

00:07:13.331 --> 00:07:15.567
Rose

00:07:15.600 --> 00:07:17.669
Budnick.

00:07:21.573 --> 00:07:23.808
- Who?
- Rose Budnick.

00:07:23.842 --> 00:07:24.843
She died.

00:07:24.876 --> 00:07:26.578
Oh, my God. How?

00:07:26.611 --> 00:07:27.812
Well she committed suicide.

00:07:27.846 --> 00:07:29.814
Oh, no.

00:07:29.848 --> 00:07:31.716
Oh, she was such
a brilliant woman.

00:07:31.750 --> 00:07:32.851
She... an intellectual.

00:07:32.884 --> 00:07:34.385
She was a Holocaust survivor.

00:07:34.419 --> 00:07:35.353
She left a note.

00:07:35.386 --> 00:07:37.856
She decided life
was meaningless.

00:07:37.889 --> 00:07:39.491
She found no
point in going on.

00:07:39.524 --> 00:07:42.727
Oh, how crazy, to...
to judge life as meaningless.

00:07:42.761 --> 00:07:45.897
Well if you think about it,
Max, what does it mean?

00:07:45.930 --> 00:07:48.600
You sound like
one of my students.

00:07:48.633 --> 00:07:50.301
Why are we all here?

00:07:50.335 --> 00:07:52.971
It's, uh, cosmic fluctuations.

00:07:53.004 --> 00:07:55.006
We happened to pop into being
out of nothing.

00:07:55.039 --> 00:07:56.674
Believe me,
if it were up to me,

00:07:56.708 --> 00:07:57.976
I would've done
it differently.

00:07:58.009 --> 00:08:00.578
Don't have this conversation
in front of Mort.

00:08:00.612 --> 00:08:01.946
He has nightmares.

00:08:04.649 --> 00:08:05.817
Mort?

00:08:05.850 --> 00:08:08.553
Come inside.
It's too cold.

00:08:13.625 --> 00:08:16.561
I had a strange dream
last night.

00:08:16.594 --> 00:08:17.962
Well I don't have time
to hear about it.

00:08:17.996 --> 00:08:19.898
I'm running late.

00:08:19.931 --> 00:08:22.534
Will I see you for lunch?

00:08:22.567 --> 00:08:23.735
Nope.

00:08:23.768 --> 00:08:25.036
I am lunching with Philippe

00:08:25.069 --> 00:08:27.505
and the reporter
from <i>Paris Match.</i>

00:08:27.539 --> 00:08:28.907
It is a work lunch.

00:08:28.940 --> 00:08:31.509
I mean, today is insane.
We are totally slammed.

00:08:31.543 --> 00:08:33.778
We got wall-to-wall
interviews all day.

00:08:33.812 --> 00:08:35.780
And you have to be
at all the interviews?

00:08:35.814 --> 00:08:37.515
Yeah, of course I do.

00:08:37.549 --> 00:08:40.552
That's why we're here.
It's my job.

00:08:42.120 --> 00:08:44.389
<i>I can't say I wasn't
a little uncomfortable</i>

00:08:44.422 --> 00:08:47.058
<i>about Sue spending
all day with Philippe,</i>

00:08:47.091 --> 00:08:49.828
<i>with his pretentious bullshit.</i>

00:08:50.094 --> 00:08:52.430
<i>She thinks he's a genius.</i>

00:08:52.964 --> 00:08:54.399
<i>Her whole life,</i>

00:08:54.432 --> 00:08:56.534
<i>she was attracted
to brilliant men.</i>

00:08:56.568 --> 00:09:00.572
<i>She even thought
I was a major intellectual.</i>

00:09:00.972 --> 00:09:02.540
<i>When we first met,</i>

00:09:02.574 --> 00:09:06.544
<i>she was so impressed
with my magazine articles,</i>

00:09:06.578 --> 00:09:08.746
<i>my think pieces.</i>

00:09:09.080 --> 00:09:11.883
<i>She thought
I had a novel in me.</i>

00:09:12.250 --> 00:09:14.986
<i>When I showed her
my first pages,</i>

00:09:15.019 --> 00:09:17.455
<i>she said they were turgid.</i>

00:09:17.856 --> 00:09:19.490
<i>Now it's clear.</i>

00:09:19.524 --> 00:09:22.527
<i>She's starting to think
she bet on the wrong horse.</i>

00:09:25.163 --> 00:09:27.765
<i>I didn't know
where I was going.</i>

00:09:27.799 --> 00:09:29.434
<i>I walked all morning.</i>

00:09:29.467 --> 00:09:32.070
<i>I thought about my life,
my father.</i>

00:09:32.103 --> 00:09:33.938
<i>I disappointed him.</i>

00:09:33.972 --> 00:09:36.507
<i>My brother was the big earner.</i>

00:09:36.908 --> 00:09:38.610
<i>I thought about my book</i>

00:09:38.643 --> 00:09:42.714
<i>and how tough it was
to write a really great book,</i>

00:09:42.747 --> 00:09:47.085
<i>not just another novel,
but a masterpiece.</i>

00:09:47.218 --> 00:09:50.188
<i>Shakespeare
created masterpieces.</i>

00:09:50.221 --> 00:09:52.657
<i>Michelangelo, Joyce,</i>

00:09:52.690 --> 00:09:53.858
<i>Chaplin,</i>

00:09:53.892 --> 00:09:55.593
<i>Fellini.</i>

00:09:55.894 --> 00:09:57.896
<i>Ah, Fellini.</i>

00:09:57.929 --> 00:10:00.198
<i>I taught a course in Fellini.</i>

00:10:00.231 --> 00:10:03.101
<i>I identified with his films.</i>

00:10:07.639 --> 00:10:10.008
Mort, when is your book
going to be finished?

00:10:10.041 --> 00:10:12.110
- I'm working on it!
- Mort Rifkin?

00:10:12.143 --> 00:10:13.578
Oh, goodness!

00:10:13.611 --> 00:10:15.613
- As I live and breathe.
- My God.

00:10:15.647 --> 00:10:17.615
Miss Weinstein,
my English teacher.

00:10:17.649 --> 00:10:20.151
You showed great promise
as a writer.

00:10:20.184 --> 00:10:22.487
- I wound up teaching film.
- Well.

00:10:22.520 --> 00:10:23.855
- I had to make a living.
- Yeah.

00:10:23.888 --> 00:10:25.490
But I'm working on a novel.

00:10:25.523 --> 00:10:28.660
Just try not
to make it turgid.

00:10:28.693 --> 00:10:30.028
Tell me, Mort,

00:10:30.061 --> 00:10:32.063
are you still asking
those big questions?

00:10:32.096 --> 00:10:35.633
God, death,
the meaning of life?

00:10:35.667 --> 00:10:37.068
Rabbi Mintz, yes.

00:10:37.101 --> 00:10:39.037
They're the only questions
worth asking.

00:10:39.070 --> 00:10:41.572
The rest is all trivia.

00:10:41.606 --> 00:10:44.475
You know, I sometimes wonder
if you're a true Jew.

00:10:44.509 --> 00:10:47.512
You don't observe the Sabbath,
you ridicule your religion,

00:10:47.545 --> 00:10:49.514
you've never been to Israel.

00:10:49.547 --> 00:10:52.483
What would God say
if you met face-to-face?

00:10:52.517 --> 00:10:55.753
After what God's done,
I have nothing to say to him.

00:10:55.787 --> 00:10:57.522
Let him talk to my lawyer.

00:10:57.555 --> 00:11:00.591
Who but a Jew
would think of suing God?

00:11:00.625 --> 00:11:03.661
Who but a Jew
would have a slam-dunk case?

00:11:05.530 --> 00:11:07.699
Hello, Mort.
Are you here for the festival?

00:11:07.732 --> 00:11:09.801
Marcia Cohen!

00:11:09.834 --> 00:11:14.005
You were the neighborhood girl
I truly lost my heart for.

00:11:14.038 --> 00:11:17.075
You were the only boy who
read the Russians and Proust

00:11:17.108 --> 00:11:19.544
and took me to see plays
by Ionesco and Beckett.

00:11:19.577 --> 00:11:21.813
My mother and father
fell in love with you,

00:11:21.846 --> 00:11:23.548
just not me.

00:11:23.581 --> 00:11:25.516
Your parents would be
disappointed in me.

00:11:25.550 --> 00:11:28.619
I still haven't found myself.

00:11:28.653 --> 00:11:29.821
Keep plugging.

00:11:29.854 --> 00:11:32.090
And, oh, happy birthday.

00:11:32.123 --> 00:11:33.725
Ooh, don't remind me.

00:11:33.758 --> 00:11:35.159
The clock is ticking.

00:11:35.193 --> 00:11:37.161
Mom and Dad?

00:11:37.195 --> 00:11:39.597
What are you doing
in San Sebastián?

00:11:39.630 --> 00:11:42.734
We just came to give you
a piece of advice, son.

00:11:42.767 --> 00:11:44.769
Was gonna have it put
on my tombstone when I died,

00:11:44.802 --> 00:11:47.071
but your mother thought
it was too vulgar.

00:11:47.105 --> 00:11:49.540
And that advice is?

00:11:49.574 --> 00:11:52.243
Money talks, shit walks.

00:11:53.978 --> 00:11:55.079
Mort.

00:11:55.113 --> 00:11:57.316
Mort Rifkin.

00:11:57.349 --> 00:11:58.216
Tomás.

00:11:58.249 --> 00:12:00.184
- How great.
- How are you, my friend?

00:12:00.218 --> 00:12:01.686
- Hey.
- So good to see you.

00:12:01.719 --> 00:12:03.721
- Wonderful.
- What's going on?

00:12:04.288 --> 00:12:05.923
How's your festival going?

00:12:05.957 --> 00:12:09.227
Well the festival here
is always a pleasure.

00:12:09.260 --> 00:12:11.295
My company has a film
in competition this year.

00:12:11.330 --> 00:12:12.331
Ah.

00:12:12.364 --> 00:12:13.798
Y-you seemed
like you were lost.

00:12:13.831 --> 00:12:16.234
No, no, I just... I'm just...
I'm still jet lagged.

00:12:16.267 --> 00:12:18.569
Got it. Got it.

00:12:18.603 --> 00:12:20.071
Well it's great this year.

00:12:20.104 --> 00:12:22.040
Mort, let me tell you.

00:12:22.073 --> 00:12:23.674
I love this
festival, you know?

00:12:23.708 --> 00:12:26.277
It's such a break
from the real world.

00:12:26.311 --> 00:12:28.713
For ten days, I mean, this...
look at that...

00:12:28.746 --> 00:12:31.582
magical city
and cinema is king.

00:12:31.616 --> 00:12:32.451
I feel it.

00:12:32.484 --> 00:12:34.719
I felt it
when I got off the plane.

00:12:34.752 --> 00:12:36.587
I ran into Sue this morning,
you know?

00:12:36.621 --> 00:12:39.223
Oh, Sue is up to her neck
in work.

00:12:39.257 --> 00:12:40.625
Well she didn't look
up to her neck.

00:12:40.658 --> 00:12:42.327
She was just
having a good time,

00:12:42.361 --> 00:12:43.861
walking on the beach

00:12:43.895 --> 00:12:45.963
with that French director,
uh, Philippe Germain.

00:12:45.997 --> 00:12:47.098
You know him?

00:12:47.131 --> 00:12:48.199
She was walking
on the beach with him?

00:12:48.232 --> 00:12:49.667
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:12:49.700 --> 00:12:51.235
She did mention
that there was some interview

00:12:51.269 --> 00:12:52.837
that got canceled.

00:12:52.870 --> 00:12:53.771
I was doing my morning jog

00:12:53.805 --> 00:12:55.640
and I see this couple
from the distance,

00:12:55.673 --> 00:12:57.309
and at first, I thought I was
interrupting something,

00:12:57.342 --> 00:12:59.811
until I realized
it was your wife.

00:13:00.978 --> 00:13:02.713
Sue and I go back ages,

00:13:02.747 --> 00:13:04.782
from the times
we both worked at Paramount.

00:13:04.816 --> 00:13:06.784
And she introduced me
to this director,

00:13:06.818 --> 00:13:08.320
and let me tell you something,
Mort:

00:13:08.353 --> 00:13:10.188
this guy is the real deal.

00:13:10.221 --> 00:13:11.323
I've seen his film.

00:13:11.356 --> 00:13:13.224
It's just... it's great.

00:13:13.257 --> 00:13:15.293
Well I...
I know it's against war.

00:13:15.327 --> 00:13:18.196
Yeah, but it has such
a positive attitude.

00:13:18.229 --> 00:13:20.832
I mean,
it lifts your spirits, really.

00:13:20.865 --> 00:13:21.833
Mm-hm.

00:13:21.866 --> 00:13:23.801
And they were walking
on the beach together?

00:13:23.835 --> 00:13:25.337
Yep. Mm-hm.

00:13:26.405 --> 00:13:28.606
What's going on?
You look pale.

00:13:29.341 --> 00:13:31.142
You know,
to tell you the truth,

00:13:31.175 --> 00:13:34.679
I've been experiencing
some chest pains.

00:13:35.113 --> 00:13:37.648
Chest pains are never good,
man.

00:13:37.748 --> 00:13:38.816
Since when?

00:13:38.850 --> 00:13:40.151
Oh, since I left New York.

00:13:40.184 --> 00:13:42.787
Really?
Left side or right side?

00:13:42.820 --> 00:13:44.188
Sort of here.

00:13:44.222 --> 00:13:45.424
Wow.

00:13:45.457 --> 00:13:47.359
Maybe you wanna have
that checked out, Mort.

00:13:47.392 --> 00:13:49.026
Well when I get back
to the city,

00:13:49.060 --> 00:13:50.362
I definitely will.

00:13:50.395 --> 00:13:51.896
How long are you here for?

00:13:51.929 --> 00:13:53.398
For the whole festival.

00:13:53.432 --> 00:13:55.666
Mort, if they persist,
I'd see someone.

00:13:55.700 --> 00:13:56.868
Really.

00:13:58.736 --> 00:14:00.372
It's like a tightening?

00:14:00.405 --> 00:14:04.376
Well I do feel, in a way,
a kind of tingling.

00:14:04.409 --> 00:14:06.210
Radiating, right?

00:14:06.244 --> 00:14:08.246
- Well, maybe.
- Oh, boy.

00:14:08.279 --> 00:14:10.315
Oh, boy.
That's not good.

00:14:10.349 --> 00:14:13.684
I recognize the symptoms
from my cousin's coronary.

00:14:13.718 --> 00:14:14.719
I mean, no other warning.

00:14:14.752 --> 00:14:16.254
He just went... like that.

00:14:16.287 --> 00:14:18.890
Well how old w...

00:14:18.923 --> 00:14:20.359
Forty-eight.

00:14:20.392 --> 00:14:21.859
Can you believe it?

00:14:21.893 --> 00:14:23.995
Early detection is the key
to survival here.

00:14:24.028 --> 00:14:25.830
Remember that.

00:14:25.863 --> 00:14:28.966
I'm sure the hotel
would know a doctor.

00:14:29.368 --> 00:14:32.737
You wanna get some random
hotel doctor, Mort?

00:14:32.770 --> 00:14:35.340
No, th-th-this is your heart,
after all.

00:14:35.374 --> 00:14:38.009
We're talking about
your life, here.

00:14:38.042 --> 00:14:39.210
Ah.

00:14:41.012 --> 00:14:42.280
This head of mine.

00:14:42.314 --> 00:14:43.448
I got a number.

00:14:43.482 --> 00:14:45.850
A good doctor that lives here.

00:14:45.883 --> 00:14:48.753
Yes,
Gil Brenner gave it to me.

00:14:49.187 --> 00:14:50.188
Not that I ever
needed to use it,

00:14:50.221 --> 00:14:51.189
but just in case.

00:14:51.222 --> 00:14:53.024
Dr. Jo Rojas.

00:14:53.057 --> 00:14:56.461
Dr. Rojas is at the hospital
till this afternoon,

00:14:56.495 --> 00:14:58.930
but can you come in
tomorrow morning?

00:15:00.064 --> 00:15:01.866
- Hey.
- Hi.

00:15:01.899 --> 00:15:03.067
Oh, my God.

00:15:03.100 --> 00:15:04.436
What a day.
I need a drink.

00:15:04.469 --> 00:15:08.373
You cannot believe
how stupid these questions are.

00:15:08.407 --> 00:15:11.042
- No breaks?
- Ugh. Not really.

00:15:11.075 --> 00:15:14.346
I mean, one interviewer,
you know, they canceled.

00:15:14.379 --> 00:15:17.181
So we had a half an hour
to get some fresh air.

00:15:17.215 --> 00:15:18.783
What'd you do?

00:15:18.816 --> 00:15:21.386
Well, we went out,
um, and had a smoke.

00:15:21.420 --> 00:15:23.522
Well, I mean, you know,
Philippe had a smoke.

00:15:23.555 --> 00:15:25.189
- <i>Señora.</i>
- Hi.

00:15:25.223 --> 00:15:26.425
Uh, a...

00:15:26.458 --> 00:15:29.293
a vodka martini, please.

00:15:29.328 --> 00:15:32.196
- <i>Gracias.</i>
- A glass of red wine.

00:15:32.230 --> 00:15:33.931
Red wine?

00:15:33.965 --> 00:15:35.766
You're drinking red wine
because of your heart?

00:15:35.800 --> 00:15:39.438
Well they say that it's,
uh, you know.

00:15:39.471 --> 00:15:40.938
Oh, there's Philippe.

00:15:40.972 --> 00:15:43.475
I invited him
to have dinner with us.

00:15:43.508 --> 00:15:45.142
- How are you?
- You did?

00:15:45.176 --> 00:15:47.446
Yeah.
I didn't think you'd mind.

00:15:47.479 --> 00:15:50.415
Listen, Mort, he really is...
uh, respects your opinions.

00:15:50.449 --> 00:15:52.384
Well I was looking forward

00:15:52.417 --> 00:15:54.118
to having a quiet
little dinner,

00:15:54.151 --> 00:15:55.987
just with the two of us.

00:15:56.020 --> 00:15:57.556
I know. I know.

00:15:57.589 --> 00:15:58.523
But he's here all alone.

00:15:58.557 --> 00:16:00.359
It would be kind of rude
not to include him.

00:16:00.392 --> 00:16:05.096
Hey, you know,
I ran into Tomás Lopez today.

00:16:05.129 --> 00:16:06.230
- Mm.
- Yeah.

00:16:06.264 --> 00:16:10.569
He said he saw you and
Philippe on the beach earlier.

00:16:10.602 --> 00:16:11.370
Yeah.

00:16:11.403 --> 00:16:13.505
I mean,
I told you that, you know,

00:16:13.538 --> 00:16:16.375
the interviewer
canceled and...

00:16:16.408 --> 00:16:18.209
we had a little
breathing room

00:16:18.242 --> 00:16:19.877
away from the madding crowd.

00:16:19.910 --> 00:16:22.246
I don't understand
anything this says...

00:16:22.280 --> 00:16:23.348
Hi.
Sorry I'm late.

00:16:23.382 --> 00:16:24.549
Hi. Yeah, no, no, no.
It's okay.

00:16:24.583 --> 00:16:27.218
I was talking with that critic

00:16:27.251 --> 00:16:28.986
from some highbrow
film magazine.

00:16:29.020 --> 00:16:30.187
You know,

00:16:30.221 --> 00:16:33.291
he thinks my film should be
mandatory viewing at the UN.

00:16:33.325 --> 00:16:36.328
Well any film
that can do big box office

00:16:36.361 --> 00:16:39.163
and also bring world peace.

00:16:39.196 --> 00:16:41.198
You know,
that's actually a great idea.

00:16:41.232 --> 00:16:43.034
I mean,
can you imagine the coup,

00:16:43.067 --> 00:16:45.570
the press coup,
if we had the premiere...

00:16:45.604 --> 00:16:47.805
the New York premiere
at the UN?

00:16:48.373 --> 00:16:49.874
It would be incredible, right?

00:16:49.907 --> 00:16:51.108
Yeah.

00:16:51.142 --> 00:16:52.411
Well we put in quite
a day today, huh?

00:16:52.444 --> 00:16:54.379
You did.
You were unbelievable.

00:16:54.413 --> 00:16:56.147
Can I have one vodka martini,
please, sir?

00:16:56.180 --> 00:16:57.248
With a twist of lemon.

00:16:57.281 --> 00:16:58.483
- Right?
- Oof.

00:16:58.517 --> 00:16:59.884
- You have good memory, huh?
- Oh, you know.

00:16:59.917 --> 00:17:01.520
That's amazing.

00:17:01.553 --> 00:17:02.521
- Hey...
- What?

00:17:02.554 --> 00:17:03.588
Also, I have to say,

00:17:03.622 --> 00:17:05.122
I thought you were
very eloquent

00:17:05.156 --> 00:17:06.491
with the guy from Denmark.

00:17:06.525 --> 00:17:08.125
Yeah. Oh, yeah,
the guy from Denmark.

00:17:08.159 --> 00:17:08.926
- Yeah.
- Oh, my God.

00:17:08.959 --> 00:17:10.094
You should've heard
what he said

00:17:10.127 --> 00:17:11.295
about world hunger.

00:17:11.330 --> 00:17:13.432
You were against it,
I imagine.

00:17:13.465 --> 00:17:15.299
No,
I thought he was so smart.

00:17:15.334 --> 00:17:16.901
- He was definitely by far...
- No, he was smart. Yeah, yeah.

00:17:16.934 --> 00:17:18.869
The smartest journalist there.

00:17:18.903 --> 00:17:20.305
And that woman.
Oh, my God.

00:17:20.339 --> 00:17:21.440
- Which one?
- The one from Paris.

00:17:21.473 --> 00:17:22.574
- Which woman from Paris?
- The one.

00:17:22.607 --> 00:17:24.241
The one who said that
she thinks you're the greatest

00:17:24.275 --> 00:17:26.010
- innovator of film...
- Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:17:26.043 --> 00:17:27.446
- Since the <i>Nouvelle Vague.</i>
- She was very intelligent.

00:17:27.479 --> 00:17:28.613
Yeah, yeah.
She was very intelligent.

00:17:28.647 --> 00:17:30.382
You know,
from the very beginning,

00:17:30.415 --> 00:17:35.286
I was such a fan
of Godard and Truffaut

00:17:35.320 --> 00:17:37.456
and... Claude Lelouch!

00:17:37.489 --> 00:17:38.989
<i>A Man and a Woman.</i>

00:17:39.023 --> 00:17:40.325
And the stuff
you were saying to her

00:17:40.359 --> 00:17:41.360
about the montage.

00:17:41.393 --> 00:17:42.494
- Oh, yes, yes.
- I mean,

00:17:42.527 --> 00:17:43.595
- she was eating that up.
- Yes, the montage, yeah.

00:17:43.628 --> 00:17:45.397
I mean, I just thought
she was gonna start licking you

00:17:45.430 --> 00:17:46.531
- all over the place.
- But you know what?

00:17:46.565 --> 00:17:48.165
- You know, I missed something.
- It was so incredible.

00:17:48.199 --> 00:17:49.468
Because my influences...
you know, my influences

00:17:49.501 --> 00:17:50.535
were more John Ford, you know?

00:17:50.569 --> 00:17:51.536
- Howard Hawks, you know?
- Right, right, right.

00:17:51.570 --> 00:17:54.171
- I missed that, you know?
- I-I just always

00:17:54.205 --> 00:17:56.341
loved <i>Breathless</i>

00:17:56.375 --> 00:17:57.942
and <i>Jules and Jim.</i>

00:17:57.975 --> 00:18:00.211
<i>Jules and Jim</i>
was such a masterpiece.

00:18:00.244 --> 00:18:03.482
And-and-and how indebted
you are to Frank Capra.

00:18:03.515 --> 00:18:04.949
- Yes, of course.
- You know, the three of those.

00:18:04.982 --> 00:18:06.183
- And...
- Yeah, Capra.

00:18:06.217 --> 00:18:07.586
From the minute it came out,

00:18:07.619 --> 00:18:10.054
<i>Jules and Jim</i>
was an incredible influence

00:18:10.087 --> 00:18:11.122
on other films.

00:18:11.155 --> 00:18:13.958
You know, what I like
about the American masters

00:18:13.991 --> 00:18:15.394
is their sense of optimism.

00:18:15.427 --> 00:18:16.695
- Oh, yeah, yeah.
- You know?

00:18:16.728 --> 00:18:18.129
If you'll notice, I always...

00:18:18.162 --> 00:18:19.498
you know, I always try
to leave the audience

00:18:19.531 --> 00:18:21.098
with a sense of hope.

00:18:21.132 --> 00:18:23.402
There's no doubt the American
masters were wonderful,

00:18:23.435 --> 00:18:25.437
but, um...

00:18:25.470 --> 00:18:27.706
generations of Americans
were misled

00:18:27.739 --> 00:18:30.342
into thinking that
Hollywood endings were real

00:18:30.375 --> 00:18:32.344
and not make-believe.

00:18:32.377 --> 00:18:34.513
And then the Europeans
came along

00:18:34.546 --> 00:18:36.147
and movies grew up.

00:18:36.180 --> 00:18:37.449
My view is less...

00:18:37.482 --> 00:18:39.049
Less pessimistic, you know?

00:18:39.083 --> 00:18:41.620
In the end, I believe art
makes it all worthwhile.

00:18:41.653 --> 00:18:43.988
- Mm.
- Art and love.

00:18:44.021 --> 00:18:45.457
With the right person,
you know?

00:18:45.490 --> 00:18:46.957
Romance.

00:18:46.991 --> 00:18:49.226
You know?
Adventure, passion.

00:18:49.260 --> 00:18:52.597
All these things make life
a positive experience.

00:18:52.631 --> 00:18:54.566
But we had this conversation
earlier today

00:18:54.599 --> 00:18:57.234
- when we discussed passion...
- Yeah, yeah.

00:18:57.268 --> 00:18:58.670
- And how few people...
- Right.

00:18:58.703 --> 00:19:00.405
Really understand
the rules of desire, you know?

00:19:00.439 --> 00:19:01.740
Yeah.

00:19:01.773 --> 00:19:03.508
That was...
that was a good conversation.

00:19:03.542 --> 00:19:05.142
Yeah.
You recall now.

00:19:05.176 --> 00:19:06.745
- I like...
- Yeah. Well, you're amazing.

00:19:06.778 --> 00:19:09.213
- I like women who achieve.
- Yeah.

00:19:09.246 --> 00:19:12.617
I mean,
I find their energy sexy.

00:19:12.651 --> 00:19:15.052
I think I'm gonna have
the Dover sole.

00:19:17.254 --> 00:19:19.123
<i>Sue and I had a little tiff,</i>

00:19:19.156 --> 00:19:22.993
<i>which is not a good thing
to do before retiring.</i>

00:19:23.027 --> 00:19:25.196
<i>I said it was a joke</i>

00:19:25.229 --> 00:19:29.367
<i>to compare Philippe to
the French New Wave directors.</i>

00:19:29.401 --> 00:19:32.604
<i>Truffaut was absolutely
dazzling,</i>

00:19:32.637 --> 00:19:36.140
<i>and Philippe
was totally derivative.</i>

00:19:36.475 --> 00:19:40.244
<i>To compare Philippe's work
to Jules and Jim</i>

00:19:40.277 --> 00:19:42.347
<i>was absurd.</i>

00:19:43.214 --> 00:19:45.417
<i>When I finally
dropped off to sleep,</i>

00:19:45.450 --> 00:19:47.686
<i>I had another odd dream.</i>

00:20:14.178 --> 00:20:15.547
When we first met,

00:20:15.580 --> 00:20:18.550
she was not only
a great beauty,

00:20:18.583 --> 00:20:21.151
she was so impressive.

00:20:21.185 --> 00:20:23.488
Sarah Lawrence
literature major.

00:20:23.522 --> 00:20:25.423
She was absolutely brilliant,

00:20:25.457 --> 00:20:27.559
but very neurotic.

00:20:27.592 --> 00:20:29.361
And then she found you what?

00:20:29.394 --> 00:20:31.730
A genius in the rough.

00:20:32.564 --> 00:20:36.735
We used to have
the most amazing discussions.

00:20:36.768 --> 00:20:41.506
Books, the theater,
serious music,

00:20:41.540 --> 00:20:44.108
that summer in Newport.

00:20:44.141 --> 00:20:47.546
And now you and I
are both in love with her.

00:20:49.648 --> 00:20:52.551
Mm, what are you two
talking about?

00:20:52.584 --> 00:20:54.686
That we are both
in love with you.

00:20:54.719 --> 00:20:55.787
Hmm.

00:20:55.820 --> 00:20:58.456
My first husband
was so possessive.

00:20:58.490 --> 00:21:02.394
Smothering, always accusing me
of things he was doing himself.

00:21:02.427 --> 00:21:03.662
And then I met Mort,

00:21:03.695 --> 00:21:06.297
who's sweet and brilliant.

00:21:06.331 --> 00:21:08.800
But I still feel like
I've never really lived,

00:21:08.833 --> 00:21:11.636
loved passionately,
full of wild abandon,

00:21:11.670 --> 00:21:13.572
and soon it's
gonna be too late.

00:21:13.605 --> 00:21:15.674
- Now we've met.
- Yes.

00:21:15.707 --> 00:21:17.375
And yet, you still love him.

00:21:17.409 --> 00:21:18.877
I'm used to him.

00:21:18.910 --> 00:21:22.279
Ooh, I wish the three of us
could all move in together.

00:21:23.113 --> 00:21:27.852
Well you two seem to have
hit it off quite intensely.

00:21:27.886 --> 00:21:30.689
Mort, would you be up
for a <i>ménage à trois</i>

00:21:30.722 --> 00:21:33.625
if the three of us
lived together?

00:21:33.658 --> 00:21:36.193
- Too bohemian for me.
- Mm.

00:21:36.226 --> 00:21:40.365
I mean, despite all my talk
about existential freedom

00:21:40.398 --> 00:21:42.834
and Dionysus,

00:21:42.867 --> 00:21:45.303
I'm a middle-class Jew
from the Bronx.

00:21:45.337 --> 00:21:46.838
- Mm.
- Well think about it.

00:21:46.871 --> 00:21:48.707
I mean, it's very Left Bank,

00:21:48.740 --> 00:21:51.676
and you know you love
everything Parisian.

00:21:51.710 --> 00:21:53.845
Philippe and I can sleep
in the bedroom,

00:21:53.878 --> 00:21:56.548
and you could have
the pullout sofa.

00:21:57.949 --> 00:22:00.385
<i>What a powerful dream.</i>

00:22:00.418 --> 00:22:02.252
<i>And it's true.</i>

00:22:02.286 --> 00:22:04.489
<i>Sue would be up for anything.</i>

00:22:04.522 --> 00:22:06.925
<i>She has no inhibitions.</i>

00:22:06.958 --> 00:22:09.327
<i>She's curious to try things.</i>

00:22:09.361 --> 00:22:11.696
<i>She has no fear.</i>

00:22:12.296 --> 00:22:15.533
<i>Meanwhile, I'm full of fears</i>

00:22:15.567 --> 00:22:20.237
<i>because I'm so aware
of the fragility of life.</i>

00:22:21.740 --> 00:22:23.375
The doctor will see you now.

00:22:23.408 --> 00:22:24.576
Oh.

00:22:27.512 --> 00:22:28.913
Thank you.

00:22:35.387 --> 00:22:37.221
Hello.

00:22:37.254 --> 00:22:38.723
I'm Dr. Rojas.

00:22:38.757 --> 00:22:40.290
Oh!

00:22:40.525 --> 00:22:41.693
Oh.

00:22:43.461 --> 00:22:44.663
Something wrong?

00:22:44.696 --> 00:22:46.765
Wrong?
Something wrong?

00:22:46.798 --> 00:22:48.667
You mean my chest pains?

00:22:48.700 --> 00:22:51.770
Well they were
there this morning.

00:22:51.803 --> 00:22:53.270
Tell me about them.

00:22:53.304 --> 00:22:56.307
Have you ever
had any heart problems?

00:22:56.675 --> 00:22:58.443
No, uh,

00:22:58.476 --> 00:23:02.380
although... although I...
I sometimes get heartburn

00:23:02.414 --> 00:23:04.849
if I eat Indian food.

00:23:05.116 --> 00:23:05.984
Uh-huh.

00:23:06.017 --> 00:23:09.387
And how long
have you had these pains?

00:23:09.421 --> 00:23:12.357
Just since leaving New York.
Just a few days.

00:23:12.390 --> 00:23:15.560
Mm-hm.
You have them before?

00:23:15.593 --> 00:23:18.930
Uh, not really.
No, I mean...

00:23:20.999 --> 00:23:23.535
You are visiting
San Sebastián?

00:23:23.568 --> 00:23:24.903
Yes.

00:23:24.936 --> 00:23:27.237
Uh, I'm just here
for the film festival.

00:23:27.271 --> 00:23:28.406
Oh, I see.

00:23:28.440 --> 00:23:31.409
And I had these pains

00:23:31.443 --> 00:23:33.812
and someone gave me
your number, and, uh...

00:23:33.845 --> 00:23:37.415
I actually live in...
in New York City.

00:23:37.449 --> 00:23:38.683
Upper East Side.

00:23:38.717 --> 00:23:40.552
72nd Street.

00:23:40.585 --> 00:23:42.921
Have you ever
visited New York?

00:23:42.954 --> 00:23:46.558
Yeah, I went to NYU
for a little bit.

00:23:46.591 --> 00:23:48.727
You know, I stayed
with my aunt and uncle.

00:23:48.760 --> 00:23:51.396
They live on 5th and 72nd.

00:23:51.429 --> 00:23:52.697
What?

00:23:52.731 --> 00:23:53.865
No.

00:23:53.898 --> 00:23:56.835
That's an incredible
coincidence.

00:23:56.868 --> 00:23:58.603
Yeah, I was going to practice
in New York.

00:23:58.636 --> 00:24:00.472
What brought you here?

00:24:00.505 --> 00:24:01.573
My husband.

00:24:01.606 --> 00:24:03.408
Um...

00:24:03.441 --> 00:24:06.511
is it a sharp pain
or a pressure?

00:24:06.544 --> 00:24:08.546
What? Oh.

00:24:08.580 --> 00:24:10.615
Uh, um, uh...

00:24:10.648 --> 00:24:14.284
Well it's actually not kicking
in at this very moment.

00:24:14.319 --> 00:24:17.322
So I don't really know.

00:24:18.089 --> 00:24:20.325
Are you part of the festival?

00:24:20.358 --> 00:24:21.860
No, no, no,

00:24:21.893 --> 00:24:23.795
but my, uh...

00:24:23.828 --> 00:24:27.699
um, Sue is my friend, and...

00:24:27.732 --> 00:24:30.300
well, she's actually my wife.

00:24:30.335 --> 00:24:31.536
She has a film
with the festival?

00:24:31.569 --> 00:24:32.237
She's...

00:24:32.269 --> 00:24:33.872
No, she runs a publicity firm.

00:24:33.905 --> 00:24:35.740
She has clients here.

00:24:35.774 --> 00:24:38.009
She's actually managing

00:24:38.042 --> 00:24:41.012
the Saturday night movie.

00:24:41.045 --> 00:24:44.281
Uh, <i>Apocalyptic Dreams.</i>

00:24:45.383 --> 00:24:46.751
Can I be frank?

00:24:46.785 --> 00:24:48.520
You didn't like it?

00:24:48.553 --> 00:24:50.021
Pretentious.

00:24:50.054 --> 00:24:51.589
Very...

00:24:51.623 --> 00:24:54.058
Very commercial stuff
trying to pass as art,

00:24:54.092 --> 00:24:56.761
but I seem to be
in a minority.

00:24:56.795 --> 00:24:59.764
Oh, no, no.
I'm right along with you.

00:25:01.099 --> 00:25:03.802
Well I'm just gonna get
a closer look.

00:25:03.835 --> 00:25:07.372
So... you are married?

00:25:07.539 --> 00:25:08.907
- Mm.
- Um...

00:25:08.940 --> 00:25:10.775
are you under any stress?

00:25:10.809 --> 00:25:12.410
What do you do?

00:25:12.443 --> 00:25:14.479
Oh, I see.
You're a writer.

00:25:14.512 --> 00:25:16.381
- I'm working on a novel.
- Mm-hm.

00:25:16.414 --> 00:25:19.050
It's sort of my
breakthrough attempt.

00:25:19.083 --> 00:25:22.787
And, well, naturally,
I want it to be a masterpiece.

00:25:22.821 --> 00:25:24.689
Naturally, yeah.

00:25:24.722 --> 00:25:27.692
I mean, I find myself
just writing a page

00:25:27.725 --> 00:25:29.794
and then ripping it up

00:25:29.828 --> 00:25:31.663
and then writing another page,

00:25:31.696 --> 00:25:33.398
ripping it up!

00:25:33.431 --> 00:25:34.599
I mean...

00:25:34.632 --> 00:25:40.438
I don't want to write just
one more lousy, mediocre novel.

00:25:40.572 --> 00:25:41.639
You know what I mean?

00:25:41.673 --> 00:25:44.375
I mean, my point of view is,

00:25:44.409 --> 00:25:47.946
if you can't get
into the big leagues

00:25:47.979 --> 00:25:50.949
with...
with Joyce and Dostoevsky,

00:25:50.982 --> 00:25:54.586
I'd rather just
take my ball and go home.

00:26:07.098 --> 00:26:08.766
As far as I can tell,

00:26:08.800 --> 00:26:11.736
your heart is just fine.

00:26:11.769 --> 00:26:13.905
Blood pressure is excellent.

00:26:14.105 --> 00:26:16.541
So I'll get the results

00:26:16.574 --> 00:26:18.910
of your blood test
in a few days or so,

00:26:18.943 --> 00:26:20.812
and if you don't hear from me,

00:26:20.845 --> 00:26:22.981
it means everything is fine,

00:26:23.014 --> 00:26:24.983
which I fully expect.

00:26:25.016 --> 00:26:28.686
So try to enjoy
the rest of your stay here.

00:26:28.720 --> 00:26:30.421
Take care.

00:26:31.489 --> 00:26:32.523
Thank you.

00:26:32.557 --> 00:26:34.726
Um... yes.

00:26:34.759 --> 00:26:36.060
Um...

00:26:36.094 --> 00:26:37.962
oh, by the way...

00:26:37.996 --> 00:26:40.765
Can I make a confession?

00:26:40.798 --> 00:26:41.966
Yes.

00:26:42.000 --> 00:26:44.135
I didn't know
you were a woman.

00:26:44.168 --> 00:26:48.773
I mean, when he said
"Jo Rojas"...

00:26:48.806 --> 00:26:50.909
Well, you know,
some men can be shy,

00:26:50.942 --> 00:26:52.844
getting examined by a woman.

00:26:52.877 --> 00:26:54.812
Oh, no, not me.
No, no.

00:26:54.846 --> 00:26:56.481
I mean... I mean,

00:26:56.514 --> 00:26:59.784
I only showed
you a part of my chest.

00:27:00.451 --> 00:27:04.589
Well enjoy the festival, eh?

00:27:04.923 --> 00:27:07.625
Did I tell you I taught film?

00:27:07.659 --> 00:27:09.827
You did? Hm.

00:27:09.861 --> 00:27:15.033
There was a great period
of cinema classics,

00:27:15.066 --> 00:27:16.668
and that was my specialty:

00:27:16.701 --> 00:27:18.136
great classic movies.

00:27:18.169 --> 00:27:20.171
I mean, naturally,

00:27:20.204 --> 00:27:24.776
I gravitated toward
the great European directors.

00:27:24.809 --> 00:27:28.780
You know, Fellini and Bergman.

00:27:28.813 --> 00:27:32.083
I remember all those
wonderful Truffaut movies.

00:27:32.116 --> 00:27:34.118
And Godard.

00:27:34.152 --> 00:27:38.189
Seems that you...
know about film.

00:27:38.222 --> 00:27:40.224
Not really, but, you know,

00:27:40.258 --> 00:27:42.193
I spent a lot of
time in Paris.

00:27:42.226 --> 00:27:43.528
I lived there for a while,

00:27:43.561 --> 00:27:45.263
and I used to go
to the <i>Cinémathèque.</i>

00:27:45.296 --> 00:27:47.799
And, you know,
the films were all classics.

00:27:47.832 --> 00:27:49.534
And it was cheap.

00:27:51.636 --> 00:27:52.704
Well.

00:27:58.142 --> 00:28:01.145
<i>Gee,
I wonder who she's married to.</i>

00:28:02.814 --> 00:28:05.149
<i>What a charming woman.</i>

00:28:05.183 --> 00:28:08.853
<i>She really put a charge
in my day.</i>

00:28:09.220 --> 00:28:10.955
<i>She said she'd call</i>

00:28:10.989 --> 00:28:14.792
<i>only if my blood work
came back with a problem.</i>

00:28:14.826 --> 00:28:17.729
<i>Talk about mixed feelings.</i>

00:28:18.196 --> 00:28:21.132
<i>Too bad I already
got my flu shot.</i>

00:28:22.000 --> 00:28:23.134
<i>That night,</i>

00:28:23.167 --> 00:28:26.070
<i>I had dinner with a whole
cluster of movie people.</i>

00:28:26.104 --> 00:28:28.307
<i>Very dull.</i>

00:28:28.340 --> 00:28:31.843
<i>Lots of talk
about box office and grosses,</i>

00:28:31.876 --> 00:28:34.245
<i>and don't think I didn't catch
Sue and Philippe</i>

00:28:34.278 --> 00:28:36.714
<i>exchanging knowing glances</i>

00:28:36.748 --> 00:28:39.584
<i>and smiling at certain remarks</i>

00:28:39.617 --> 00:28:44.122
<i>like they're the only ones
in on some private joke.</i>

00:28:45.023 --> 00:28:46.691
Hey, Mort.

00:28:46.724 --> 00:28:48.159
- Oh.
- I just saw you passing by.

00:28:48.192 --> 00:28:49.627
- Oh.
- How you feeling?

00:28:49.660 --> 00:28:51.262
- Much, much better.
- Oh, so good to hear.

00:28:51.295 --> 00:28:52.864
- Just coming in
for a drink, and...

00:28:52.897 --> 00:28:54.032
So why don't you join us?

00:28:54.065 --> 00:28:54.999
- Oh.
- Come on.

00:28:55.033 --> 00:28:56.267
All right.

00:28:56.300 --> 00:28:58.970
So, Mort,
this is my friend Ramon Robles.

00:28:59.003 --> 00:29:00.238
Ramon.

00:29:00.271 --> 00:29:02.874
And this gentleman here
is Gil Brenner.

00:29:02.907 --> 00:29:03.908
- Hello, there.
- Gil.

00:29:03.941 --> 00:29:04.976
And Gil is the one

00:29:05.009 --> 00:29:06.978
that gave me that doctor's
name that I gave you.

00:29:07.011 --> 00:29:08.579
- Oh, thank you.
- You're welcome.

00:29:08.613 --> 00:29:09.847
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

00:29:09.881 --> 00:29:11.616
So you saw him?

00:29:11.649 --> 00:29:13.184
Well, her.

00:29:13.217 --> 00:29:15.053
Jo is actually a woman.

00:29:15.086 --> 00:29:16.888
- Really?
- Yeah. Isn't she lovely?

00:29:16.921 --> 00:29:18.256
Oh, yes, she is.

00:29:18.289 --> 00:29:22.126
And I saw her,
and it all turned out fine.

00:29:22.160 --> 00:29:23.694
- Oh, that's fantastic.
- Oh, great.

00:29:23.728 --> 00:29:25.763
Have you... have you known her
for a long time?

00:29:25.797 --> 00:29:27.165
Oh, yeah.
We go way back.

00:29:27.198 --> 00:29:28.800
I think I've known her
since she was a student.

00:29:28.833 --> 00:29:29.767
Oh.

00:29:29.801 --> 00:29:31.235
And I've always thought she
was so bright...

00:29:31.269 --> 00:29:33.905
just, you know, great.

00:29:33.938 --> 00:29:36.074
She married
her college professor, in fact.

00:29:36.107 --> 00:29:37.241
- Oh.
- Yeah.

00:29:37.275 --> 00:29:40.645
A brilliant guy.
I mean, just brilliant.

00:29:40.678 --> 00:29:42.046
But a total asshole.

00:29:42.080 --> 00:29:43.214
- Oh, no.
- I mean...

00:29:43.247 --> 00:29:45.049
I mean,
so smart and so terrible.

00:29:45.083 --> 00:29:47.051
- Oh!
- Yeah. She picks bad men.

00:29:47.085 --> 00:29:49.120
- Oh, I'm so sorry.
- Yeah.

00:29:49.153 --> 00:29:50.688
I mean, I... you know,
I wish I could tell you

00:29:50.721 --> 00:29:52.391
she came to her senses
and she dumped him,

00:29:52.424 --> 00:29:54.326
but actually, he dumped her

00:29:54.359 --> 00:29:55.760
and dated another
college student.

00:29:55.793 --> 00:29:58.196
- Oh, my God.
- Yeah, I know.

00:29:58.229 --> 00:30:00.665
She and I were
in Paris together

00:30:00.698 --> 00:30:02.900
around the same time,
and I was working for MGM

00:30:02.934 --> 00:30:05.203
and she was there kind of,
you know, like, for a year,

00:30:05.236 --> 00:30:08.072
kind of recuperating
from the whole marriage fiasco.

00:30:08.106 --> 00:30:09.240
Right.

00:30:09.273 --> 00:30:10.775
And now she's been
with this guy,

00:30:10.808 --> 00:30:12.210
trying anyway,
for a couple years.

00:30:12.243 --> 00:30:13.277
- Mm-hm.
- Wow.

00:30:13.312 --> 00:30:15.680
- He's an asshole, too.
- Oh!

00:30:15.713 --> 00:30:18.282
Wha... uh,
could I have a scotch?

00:30:18.317 --> 00:30:20.184
Absolutely.

00:30:20.218 --> 00:30:23.355
Well what does
this new guy do?

00:30:23.388 --> 00:30:25.890
He's a painter.
He's from Madrid.

00:30:25.923 --> 00:30:28.025
I think they met, I think,
in Greenwich Village,

00:30:28.059 --> 00:30:30.261
but he wanted to paint here,
of course.

00:30:30.294 --> 00:30:32.364
Why wouldn't he?
So beautiful.

00:30:32.397 --> 00:30:34.298
And he's good.
He's talented.

00:30:34.333 --> 00:30:36.368
But I hear he's a...
You know.

00:30:36.401 --> 00:30:37.969
Well Mort loves Paris.

00:30:38.002 --> 00:30:39.270
Oh, yeah? Really?

00:30:39.304 --> 00:30:40.972
You were thinking
of living there once, right?

00:30:41.005 --> 00:30:43.442
Well I actually lectured
at the <i>Cinémathèque...</i>

00:30:43.475 --> 00:30:45.676
in English, obviously,

00:30:45.710 --> 00:30:48.679
about the influence
of Pasolini on Bertolucci.

00:30:48.713 --> 00:30:50.915
- Wow.
- Oh, fantastic.

00:30:50.948 --> 00:30:54.218
So is she happy
with this painter?

00:30:54.252 --> 00:30:55.720
Oh, I doubt it.

00:30:55.753 --> 00:30:57.989
I mean, to me,
she's a glutton for punishment.

00:30:58.022 --> 00:31:00.224
- <i>Señor.</i>
- Oh.

00:31:00.258 --> 00:31:02.860
Well anyway,
to your health, Mort.

00:31:02.894 --> 00:31:04.061
To your health.

00:31:04.630 --> 00:31:07.466
<i>I didn't hear anything
about a rare blood disease.</i>

00:31:07.499 --> 00:31:12.437
<i>So I kind of gave up on ever
seeing the doctor again.</i>

00:31:12.471 --> 00:31:15.706
<i>But I can't say
she wasn't on my mind.</i>

00:31:26.485 --> 00:31:29.887
Only another hour,
and we'll be in Paris.

00:31:29.921 --> 00:31:32.790
Do you believe in love
at first sight?

00:31:33.191 --> 00:31:34.725
I do.

00:31:34.759 --> 00:31:36.794
I knew I wanted you

00:31:36.827 --> 00:31:39.997
when you told me there was
nothing wrong with my heart

00:31:40.031 --> 00:31:42.401
and it was just reflux.

00:31:42.434 --> 00:31:44.769
"Reflux"
is such a pretty word,

00:31:44.802 --> 00:31:45.870
don't you think?

00:31:45.903 --> 00:31:47.138
When you say it.

00:31:47.171 --> 00:31:49.408
Reflux.

00:31:49.608 --> 00:31:51.842
I just can't wait
till we get to Paris

00:31:51.876 --> 00:31:55.146
so you can start
me on Lipitor.

00:31:55.179 --> 00:31:57.048
We'll walk the
streets of Paris

00:31:57.081 --> 00:31:59.116
and eat at brasseries

00:31:59.150 --> 00:32:01.052
and you'll finish your novel.

00:32:02.421 --> 00:32:05.490
Exactly how high
was my cholesterol?

00:32:05.524 --> 00:32:07.892
One hundred eighty-five.

00:32:07.925 --> 00:32:10.228
But together,
we'll get it down.

00:32:10.261 --> 00:32:12.497
♪

00:32:12.897 --> 00:32:15.900
I don't think she felt
you needed any follow-up.

00:32:15.933 --> 00:32:17.235
I know,

00:32:17.268 --> 00:32:19.270
but, uh, I have a little...

00:32:19.304 --> 00:32:21.839
a little bump on my hand

00:32:21.872 --> 00:32:25.876
that I'd love her
to take a quick look at.

00:32:25.910 --> 00:32:27.845
Um, okay.

00:32:27.878 --> 00:32:29.514
Let's see.

00:32:30.181 --> 00:32:32.283
Her last patient is at 6:00.

00:32:32.317 --> 00:32:33.985
Could you come at 6:30?

00:32:34.018 --> 00:32:37.356
Maybe she could fit you in
before she goes home.

00:32:37.389 --> 00:32:40.459
I can do 6:30.
I'll be there.

00:32:41.192 --> 00:32:43.462
- They have to look good.
- Well that's what the...

00:32:43.495 --> 00:32:45.796
Hey! Hey, what you doing?

00:32:45.830 --> 00:32:47.265
Oh, hi!

00:32:47.298 --> 00:32:50.234
Um, just going up for a quick
shower and a shave.

00:32:50.268 --> 00:32:51.836
Why?
Where are you going?

00:32:51.869 --> 00:32:54.839
Well, nowhere.
I just have been out walking.

00:32:54.872 --> 00:32:57.842
Well we've got
the screening to go to.

00:32:57.875 --> 00:33:00.312
- What screening?
- <i>Breathless.</i>

00:33:00.345 --> 00:33:01.580
You know, they're giving

00:33:01.613 --> 00:33:04.849
Jean-Luc Godard
the life achievement award.

00:33:04.882 --> 00:33:05.651
Remember?

00:33:05.684 --> 00:33:07.051
I mean, I know
Godard's your guy,

00:33:07.084 --> 00:33:09.287
and so we gotta go.

00:33:09.321 --> 00:33:11.390
I-I have an appointment
at 6:30.

00:33:11.423 --> 00:33:13.525
- With who?
- A doctor.

00:33:13.558 --> 00:33:16.160
- What's wrong with you now?
- Oh, just my hand.

00:33:16.193 --> 00:33:17.396
Oh, my God.

00:33:17.429 --> 00:33:18.996
First it's your heart.
Now it's a hand.

00:33:19.030 --> 00:33:20.831
What's wrong with your hand?

00:33:20.865 --> 00:33:23.934
- I have a red bump!
- Where?

00:33:23.968 --> 00:33:24.869
Where?

00:33:24.902 --> 00:33:27.339
Oh, my God.
Mort, I can barely see that.

00:33:27.372 --> 00:33:29.140
That's a... it's a bug bite.

00:33:29.173 --> 00:33:33.177
Well I'd prefer to hear that
from a qualified physician.

00:33:33.210 --> 00:33:35.112
I'm a qualified physician.

00:33:35.146 --> 00:33:36.381
You are?

00:33:36.415 --> 00:33:38.583
- Dermatologist.
- This is Dr. Klein.

00:33:38.617 --> 00:33:42.153
He's only the biggest
dermatologist in all of Europe.

00:33:42.186 --> 00:33:43.355
Mind if I take a look?

00:33:43.388 --> 00:33:45.390
- Mm. Thanks.
- All right.

00:33:45.424 --> 00:33:47.858
Yeah, she's right.
It's just a bug bite.

00:33:47.892 --> 00:33:48.893
- It is?
- Oh, it's nothing.

00:33:48.926 --> 00:33:50.094
- Yeah.
- Be gone by tomorrow.

00:33:50.127 --> 00:33:52.531
Great.
So call your doctor and cancel.

00:33:52.564 --> 00:33:53.898
And we gotta get going.

00:33:53.931 --> 00:33:55.132
You know,
I went through a lot of trouble

00:33:55.166 --> 00:33:56.033
to get these three tickets.

00:33:56.067 --> 00:33:57.168
Three?

00:33:57.201 --> 00:33:59.937
Of course.
Philippe is dying to see it.

00:33:59.970 --> 00:34:01.373
He's seen it a million times,

00:34:01.406 --> 00:34:02.607
but, you know,
he wants to make a remake.

00:34:02.641 --> 00:34:04.175
- So...
- Oh.

00:34:04.208 --> 00:34:05.377
Mm.

00:34:41.112 --> 00:34:42.246
I want you to try some.

00:34:42.279 --> 00:34:43.382
You know, doing some drugs,

00:34:43.415 --> 00:34:45.249
it might liberate
your writing.

00:34:45.282 --> 00:34:47.319
You didn't used to
have to dope up.

00:34:47.352 --> 00:34:48.487
Oh, Jesus.

00:34:48.520 --> 00:34:50.955
I'm not doping up.

00:34:50.988 --> 00:34:52.391
Well how long
are you gonna smoke?

00:34:52.424 --> 00:34:54.091
I don't know.

00:34:54.125 --> 00:34:56.528
It's... I'm not getting any
kind of buzz for some reason.

00:34:58.630 --> 00:35:00.931
You know,
Philippe smokes all the time

00:35:00.965 --> 00:35:03.368
when he's writing
his film scripts.

00:35:03.668 --> 00:35:05.337
Judging from his movies,

00:35:05.370 --> 00:35:08.239
I get the feeling
he smokes Ativan.

00:35:08.272 --> 00:35:09.474
You just resent him

00:35:09.508 --> 00:35:12.310
because he's found himself
as an artist.

00:35:12.344 --> 00:35:15.680
Well that's easy to do
if you're willing to settle.

00:35:16.080 --> 00:35:19.116
But Chekhov didn't settle.

00:35:19.150 --> 00:35:20.719
Stendhal didn't settle.

00:35:20.752 --> 00:35:22.953
Stravinsky didn't settle.

00:35:22.987 --> 00:35:24.021
Did it ever occur to you

00:35:24.054 --> 00:35:26.591
you might have a slightly
inflated self-image?

00:35:26.625 --> 00:35:28.092
<i>It's just sad.</i>

00:35:28.125 --> 00:35:30.562
You're an intellectual,
not a poet.

00:35:33.030 --> 00:35:34.399
If you were
to have a threesome,

00:35:34.433 --> 00:35:36.033
who would it be with?

00:35:36.066 --> 00:35:38.570
I don't know.
What about you?

00:35:38.603 --> 00:35:41.473
Mm.
I don't know.

00:35:41.907 --> 00:35:44.008
Ryan Gosling.

00:35:44.309 --> 00:35:46.177
Tom Hardy.

00:35:46.711 --> 00:35:48.413
What about you?

00:35:48.447 --> 00:35:50.214
I don't know.

00:35:50.247 --> 00:35:52.283
I guess Doris.

00:35:52.317 --> 00:35:54.352
Your brother's wife?

00:35:54.386 --> 00:35:56.721
Well I met her first.

00:35:57.456 --> 00:35:59.558
Why do you think
she married him?

00:35:59.591 --> 00:36:02.026
I don't know.

00:36:02.059 --> 00:36:04.529
I mean, I thought
she loved me,

00:36:04.563 --> 00:36:07.732
but you can never tell
about these things.

00:36:09.634 --> 00:36:12.404
Does your brother know
you lust after his wife?

00:36:12.437 --> 00:36:14.406
I don't lust after her.

00:36:14.439 --> 00:36:18.710
You asked about a threesome,
and I gave it some thought.

00:36:18.743 --> 00:36:20.412
And why are we
under these sheets?

00:36:20.445 --> 00:36:22.447
I'm suffocating.

00:36:23.582 --> 00:36:26.083
You're said
to a woman's director.

00:36:26.585 --> 00:36:29.186
Well, uh,
I have to tell you something.

00:36:29.220 --> 00:36:31.121
I'm a romantic.

00:36:31.356 --> 00:36:33.358
And as the song goes,

00:36:33.391 --> 00:36:36.628
"I fall in love too easily."

00:36:36.661 --> 00:36:38.330
I appreciate women because,

00:36:38.363 --> 00:36:42.166
unlike men, who find it weak
to show their feelings,

00:36:42.199 --> 00:36:43.401
you know,

00:36:43.435 --> 00:36:46.304
women,
they never hide their emotions.

00:36:46.338 --> 00:36:48.673
Is it true that
you just bought a sailboat?

00:36:48.707 --> 00:36:51.710
Yeah.
I've sailed all my life.

00:36:51.910 --> 00:36:52.911
I think the sea

00:36:52.944 --> 00:36:56.247
is the last place
a person can really be free.

00:36:57.114 --> 00:36:58.350
You know, I used to sail.

00:36:58.383 --> 00:36:59.751
- Oh, yeah?
- Mm-hmm.

00:36:59.784 --> 00:37:02.253
It was my absolute favorite
thing in the world to do.

00:37:02.286 --> 00:37:05.222
We had a summer home
in Newport, Rhode Island,

00:37:05.256 --> 00:37:07.659
and my dad taught me
how to sail.

00:37:07.692 --> 00:37:09.494
Oh, that's funny
because you know what?

00:37:09.528 --> 00:37:11.228
My dad taught me to sail, too.

00:37:11.262 --> 00:37:13.297
- Really? Huh.
- Yeah. He was in the Navy.

00:37:13.331 --> 00:37:14.766
Wow.

00:37:14.799 --> 00:37:17.234
What an amazing life
you've had, huh?

00:37:18.168 --> 00:37:20.639
Oh, incidentally, I thought
you answered that question

00:37:20.672 --> 00:37:22.374
about love and passion...

00:37:22.407 --> 00:37:23.542
the silly thing, you know?

00:37:23.575 --> 00:37:25.209
- Mm-hmm.
- So great.

00:37:25.242 --> 00:37:27.379
I hope I didn't
make you feel uneasy.

00:37:27.412 --> 00:37:29.648
No, I-I thought I was gonna
have to bail you out there

00:37:29.681 --> 00:37:31.616
for a second, but...

00:37:32.317 --> 00:37:35.820
Is it because you sensed
I was talking about you?

00:37:37.254 --> 00:37:40.124
You shouldn't say that.

00:37:40.157 --> 00:37:41.660
Why not?

00:37:41.693 --> 00:37:44.496
Because, you know, I...

00:37:44.529 --> 00:37:45.664
I don't know.

00:37:45.697 --> 00:37:48.198
I mean, it's not
that I'm not flattered.

00:37:48.232 --> 00:37:49.534
Yeah.

00:37:49.568 --> 00:37:51.268
But what?

00:37:51.303 --> 00:37:53.338
I don't know.

00:37:53.371 --> 00:37:55.105
I just think...

00:37:55.139 --> 00:37:56.474
I don't know.

00:37:56.508 --> 00:37:59.511
You're making me
confront feelings

00:37:59.544 --> 00:38:01.713
that I've been
pushing back on.

00:38:01.746 --> 00:38:03.815
And, I don't know,
I keep going back and forth.

00:38:03.848 --> 00:38:06.885
I'm just... I'm just a little
confused at this moment.

00:38:06.918 --> 00:38:08.520
You know, sometimes,

00:38:08.553 --> 00:38:10.755
if the right person
comes along,

00:38:10.789 --> 00:38:14.158
the hard decisions
become much easier.

00:38:17.529 --> 00:38:19.431
I have a lovely new boat

00:38:19.464 --> 00:38:21.366
and I'm a very good sailor.

00:38:21.399 --> 00:38:22.534
Mm.

00:38:22.567 --> 00:38:24.369
Would it be terrible,

00:38:24.402 --> 00:38:26.838
sailing with me to Koh Rong?

00:38:28.272 --> 00:38:29.574
Where?

00:38:29.608 --> 00:38:30.375
To Koh Rong.

00:38:30.408 --> 00:38:32.711
It's an island
in the south seas.

00:38:33.812 --> 00:38:36.414
- Are you serious?
- Yeah.

00:38:36.781 --> 00:38:38.717
I... Oh, God.

00:38:38.750 --> 00:38:41.185
You have this weird ability

00:38:41.218 --> 00:38:43.688
to tap into my
most personal fantasies.

00:38:43.722 --> 00:38:45.757
- It's...
- Yeah. I'm a film director.

00:38:45.790 --> 00:38:48.326
I understand human psychology.

00:38:48.793 --> 00:38:50.528
And I know
when a woman is dreaming

00:38:50.562 --> 00:38:52.764
about having a love affair.

00:38:53.531 --> 00:38:55.600
Oh, God,
you're touching my face now.

00:38:55.634 --> 00:38:57.469
Yeah.

00:38:57.502 --> 00:38:59.537
No. I...

00:38:59.571 --> 00:39:01.740
do you know
what you are doing to me?

00:39:01.773 --> 00:39:04.609
Oh, yeah.

00:39:04.643 --> 00:39:07.846
I have a little
ringing in my ears.

00:39:07.879 --> 00:39:12.417
And I'm... I just want to,
um, uh, check it out

00:39:12.450 --> 00:39:15.453
to make sure
I don't have a brain tumor

00:39:15.487 --> 00:39:17.622
or an acoustical neuroma.

00:39:18.390 --> 00:39:20.659
<i>Usually, when I
go see a doctor,</i>

00:39:20.692 --> 00:39:21.893
<i>I'm terrified.</i>

00:39:21.926 --> 00:39:25.530
<i>I always think they're gonna
give me one month to live.</i>

00:39:25.563 --> 00:39:28.566
<i>And with my luck,
it'll be February.</i>

00:39:28.733 --> 00:39:30.368
<i>But with Dr. Rojas,</i>

00:39:30.402 --> 00:39:33.304
<i>I wouldn't mind
a checkup every day,</i>

00:39:33.438 --> 00:39:36.206
<i>not that the thought
of anything happening with her</i>

00:39:36.240 --> 00:39:39.444
<i>is even a remote possibility</i>

00:39:39.477 --> 00:39:41.713
<i>for so many reasons.</i>

00:39:42.013 --> 00:39:45.182
<i>But that's what I thought
when I first saw Sue.</i>

00:39:47.251 --> 00:39:48.620
<i>I bought a guidebook</i>

00:39:48.653 --> 00:39:50.955
<i>to see if there were any
sights I'd overlooked</i>

00:39:50.989 --> 00:39:53.958
<i>while I killed time
before my appointment.</i>

00:39:54.926 --> 00:39:58.463
<i>I'd like to say
whenever I'm in a church,</i>

00:39:58.496 --> 00:40:01.900
<i>it's only the aesthetics
I respond to.</i>

00:40:01.933 --> 00:40:05.637
<i>But I love visiting
any house of worship.</i>

00:40:05.904 --> 00:40:09.374
<i>I have great respect
for religious faith.</i>

00:40:09.474 --> 00:40:11.976
<i>I read the entire Bible
cover to cover</i>

00:40:12.010 --> 00:40:14.579
<i>and fell in love with Eve,</i>

00:40:14.612 --> 00:40:17.882
<i>Job's wife, and Delilah.</i>

00:40:18.316 --> 00:40:19.249
<i>My shrink says</i>

00:40:19.283 --> 00:40:22.454
<i>I'm attracted to women
who will hurt me.</i>

00:40:23.354 --> 00:40:26.624
<i>The New Testament
is much more forgiving.</i>

00:40:26.658 --> 00:40:29.661
<i>At least the
Messiah shows up.</i>

00:40:29.928 --> 00:40:32.430
<i>Jesus comes
dressed very simply.</i>

00:40:32.464 --> 00:40:36.534
<i>He heals people.
He does miracles.</i>

00:40:36.568 --> 00:40:37.969
<i>Yet, he's a regular guy,</i>

00:40:38.002 --> 00:40:40.472
<i>a common workingman.</i>

00:40:41.005 --> 00:40:42.707
<i>That's why,
in my college thesis,</i>

00:40:42.741 --> 00:40:46.377
<i>I wrote he shouldn't have
risen from the dead on Easter.</i>

00:40:46.411 --> 00:40:48.847
<i>He's a professional
carpenter.</i>

00:40:48.880 --> 00:40:51.649
<i>He should've risen
on Labor Day.</i>

00:40:58.757 --> 00:41:02.994
I certainly had it constantly
and intermittently.

00:41:03.027 --> 00:41:06.631
And now,
I think you've made it go away.

00:41:06.664 --> 00:41:08.066
Oh, that's so great.
Good news.

00:41:08.099 --> 00:41:11.603
And-and how have you been
since I last saw you?

00:41:11.903 --> 00:41:14.806
I've been... great.
Yeah.

00:41:14.839 --> 00:41:17.876
And are you still
missing New York?

00:41:17.909 --> 00:41:19.344
Uh, yeah, sometimes.

00:41:19.377 --> 00:41:22.981
You know,
I miss walking around.

00:41:23.081 --> 00:41:25.817
I like to stroll
and window-shop.

00:41:25.850 --> 00:41:27.919
You should've practiced
in New York.

00:41:27.952 --> 00:41:30.588
The doctors there
do very well.

00:41:30.622 --> 00:41:33.591
The ironic thing is
I come from Spain

00:41:33.625 --> 00:41:36.361
and traveled all the way
to New York to study

00:41:36.394 --> 00:41:40.465
and wind up back in Spain
with a Spanish painter.

00:41:40.498 --> 00:41:42.634
He picked me up
in Greenwich Village

00:41:42.667 --> 00:41:44.536
at the Minetta Tavern.

00:41:44.569 --> 00:41:48.406
I probably would've been
too shy to try to pick you up.

00:41:48.439 --> 00:41:51.042
I mean, I was never good
at that, you know?

00:41:51.075 --> 00:41:53.912
To see a fascinating woman

00:41:53.945 --> 00:41:57.482
sitting at a table
in a restaurant and...

00:41:57.515 --> 00:41:58.583
no, I...

00:41:58.616 --> 00:42:02.787
I probably would've just
felt my heart beating faster

00:42:02.821 --> 00:42:04.022
and I would've
just said to myself,

00:42:04.055 --> 00:42:06.524
"Well, she is so amazing

00:42:06.558 --> 00:42:09.928
"that I'm sure
she'll just brush me off

00:42:09.961 --> 00:42:13.932
if I go up to her
and try to say something."

00:42:15.433 --> 00:42:16.801
You never know.

00:42:16.835 --> 00:42:18.903
- Yes?
- Sorry.

00:42:18.937 --> 00:42:21.439
Your husband is on one,
and I'm going.

00:42:21.472 --> 00:42:22.907
I'll drop these forms off
with the hospital

00:42:22.941 --> 00:42:24.375
on my way home.

00:42:24.409 --> 00:42:27.545
Okay, yeah.
Uh, have a good weekend.

00:42:27.579 --> 00:42:29.414
See you Monday.

00:42:30.014 --> 00:42:32.050
Okay.
Excuse me one minute.

00:42:57.208 --> 00:42:59.644
Um...

00:42:59.677 --> 00:43:02.113
well, I can give you some...

00:43:02.146 --> 00:43:03.848
some drops for your ear,

00:43:03.882 --> 00:43:06.684
but I really don't think
it's necessary.

00:43:07.085 --> 00:43:08.086
So tell me,

00:43:08.119 --> 00:43:09.988
what was your favorite place

00:43:10.021 --> 00:43:12.757
to hang out in Central Park?

00:43:13.658 --> 00:43:15.026
What?

00:43:15.059 --> 00:43:19.497
I always loved to be
at the sailboat pond.

00:43:19.530 --> 00:43:20.465
Sailboat...

00:43:20.498 --> 00:43:22.433
And did you get to see

00:43:22.467 --> 00:43:24.135
much Shakespeare in the Park?

00:43:24.168 --> 00:43:28.072
It was so great to go
on those summer nights.

00:43:28.273 --> 00:43:30.475
Yes, I did.

00:43:32.010 --> 00:43:35.013
Could you please excuse me
for one more minute?

00:44:29.767 --> 00:44:30.969
Sorry for that.

00:44:31.002 --> 00:44:33.004
Uh...

00:44:34.072 --> 00:44:35.206
what were you saying?

00:44:35.239 --> 00:44:37.108
Central Park.

00:44:37.608 --> 00:44:40.511
Oh, Central Park.

00:44:41.313 --> 00:44:44.015
Yes. I...

00:44:44.849 --> 00:44:46.250
Ooh.

00:44:46.284 --> 00:44:49.821
I spent a lot of time
at the Met.

00:44:50.922 --> 00:44:53.224
And I love sitting
on the steps...

00:44:53.257 --> 00:44:56.194
Even in the spring.

00:44:56.494 --> 00:45:01.132
Did you used to eat at that
crazy café on Madison Avenue?

00:45:01.467 --> 00:45:04.102
I'm sorry.
I think you should go.

00:45:04.936 --> 00:45:08.106
Well of course I'll go.

00:45:08.139 --> 00:45:11.310
But are you all right?

00:45:11.343 --> 00:45:13.144
It's nothing.

00:45:13.878 --> 00:45:17.615
I mean,
is there anything I can do?

00:45:22.954 --> 00:45:24.956
- I...
- All right, I just...

00:45:24.989 --> 00:45:28.659
And I did always eat
at all those coffee shops.

00:45:28.693 --> 00:45:30.128
I love them.

00:45:30.161 --> 00:45:33.598
Look, can I buy you a drink?

00:45:33.631 --> 00:45:34.999
No, thank you.

00:45:35.033 --> 00:45:37.735
You look like
you can use a drink

00:45:37.769 --> 00:45:41.806
and maybe someone to talk to
from the old neighborhood.

00:45:41.839 --> 00:45:44.075
Yes, you know, we...

00:45:44.108 --> 00:45:47.145
we bring our troubles
on ourselves.

00:45:47.178 --> 00:45:50.048
I'm not sure that's true.
Have a Kleenex.

00:45:51.749 --> 00:45:52.750
Thank you.

00:45:54.185 --> 00:45:56.154
Alcohol is not good for you,

00:45:56.187 --> 00:45:59.190
but sometimes
it's the only thing that works.

00:46:00.792 --> 00:46:03.628
Can I be the doctor
for a minute?

00:46:03.661 --> 00:46:06.664
- Hmm?
- Can I be the doctor?

00:46:07.165 --> 00:46:10.101
- Sure.
- Tell me your symptoms.

00:46:13.838 --> 00:46:15.706
My...

00:46:15.740 --> 00:46:19.311
my marriage
is causing me pain....

00:46:19.344 --> 00:46:21.279
Here.

00:46:22.947 --> 00:46:24.949
And why is that?

00:46:26.418 --> 00:46:28.252
Why am I telling you this?

00:46:28.286 --> 00:46:30.855
I should never drink.

00:46:31.689 --> 00:46:33.858
Okay, tell the truth.

00:46:33.891 --> 00:46:35.760
Do you love your husband?

00:46:37.362 --> 00:46:39.364
I don't know anymore.

00:46:39.398 --> 00:46:42.100
And does he love you?

00:46:42.133 --> 00:46:44.802
He has affairs.

00:46:44.836 --> 00:46:47.205
And I accept that.

00:46:47.238 --> 00:46:49.740
After all, he is an artist,

00:46:49.774 --> 00:46:52.977
and you can't judge an artist
by bourgeois standards.

00:46:53.010 --> 00:46:55.213
He's...

00:46:55.246 --> 00:46:59.183
he's creative and tempestuous.

00:46:59.283 --> 00:47:03.355
Well if you had agreed
to an open marriage, I...

00:47:03.388 --> 00:47:05.123
I did.

00:47:05.156 --> 00:47:07.091
- Oh.
- Yes.

00:47:07.125 --> 00:47:10.194
And do you also have affairs?

00:47:10.228 --> 00:47:11.963
No, I never have.

00:47:11.996 --> 00:47:13.297
Because?

00:47:13.332 --> 00:47:15.233
Because I've never met anyone

00:47:15.266 --> 00:47:18.136
I wanted to have
an affair with.

00:47:18.169 --> 00:47:20.805
But if you're unhappy,

00:47:20.838 --> 00:47:22.106
why don't you leave him?

00:47:22.907 --> 00:47:24.242
He needs me.

00:47:24.343 --> 00:47:26.711
How long have
you been married?

00:47:26.744 --> 00:47:28.313
Five years.

00:47:28.347 --> 00:47:31.282
- And you?
- Oh, much more than that.

00:47:31.316 --> 00:47:33.017
Are you faithful?

00:47:33.050 --> 00:47:34.453
I have been.

00:47:34.486 --> 00:47:36.988
Never looked at another woman?

00:47:37.021 --> 00:47:38.856
Yeah, I mean,
of course I look.

00:47:38.890 --> 00:47:42.160
I look.
I... I drool.

00:47:42.193 --> 00:47:44.295
But I have been faithful.

00:47:44.329 --> 00:47:46.063
We are both faithful.

00:47:46.097 --> 00:47:48.266
Another coincidence.

00:47:48.634 --> 00:47:52.036
I mean,
to be absolutely honest,

00:47:52.069 --> 00:47:54.872
my marriage has been...

00:47:54.906 --> 00:47:58.009
you know, fraying...

00:47:58.042 --> 00:48:01.145
for... a while now.

00:48:01.179 --> 00:48:03.147
Paco is high-strung...

00:48:03.181 --> 00:48:05.883
- Huh.
- Dramatic...

00:48:05.917 --> 00:48:07.419
temperamental,

00:48:07.452 --> 00:48:10.087
hard to live with.

00:48:10.254 --> 00:48:13.257
And if I say
I'm gonna leave him,

00:48:13.291 --> 00:48:17.828
he weeps and threatens
to kill himself.

00:48:17.929 --> 00:48:19.398
Oh, he's bluffing.

00:48:19.431 --> 00:48:21.500
Well you said he was dramatic.

00:48:21.533 --> 00:48:23.435
How do you know
he's bluffing?

00:48:23.468 --> 00:48:26.405
Because nobody wants to die,

00:48:26.438 --> 00:48:28.973
not even for love.

00:48:29.006 --> 00:48:30.875
You wouldn't die for love?

00:48:30.908 --> 00:48:33.345
I'd frankly prefer
not to die for anything,

00:48:33.378 --> 00:48:35.980
and that includes sickness,
old age,

00:48:36.013 --> 00:48:38.849
or choking on a bagel.

00:48:39.318 --> 00:48:41.986
My life here is not so bad.

00:48:42.019 --> 00:48:45.524
San Sebastián is not New York,
but...

00:48:45.557 --> 00:48:48.360
you know, life here is nice
and beautiful.

00:48:48.393 --> 00:48:51.162
This is a charming city.
Have you seen the city?

00:48:51.597 --> 00:48:53.465
Well my wife knows it well,

00:48:53.498 --> 00:48:55.334
and she's been
here many times,

00:48:55.367 --> 00:48:58.035
but she's too busy
to show me around, you know?

00:48:58.069 --> 00:49:00.805
Would you like to see
some of the nice parts?

00:49:00.838 --> 00:49:03.741
Yes,
I would really love that.

00:49:04.208 --> 00:49:05.544
Where are you staying?

00:49:05.577 --> 00:49:07.412
At the Maria Cristina.

00:49:07.446 --> 00:49:08.347
Okay.

00:49:08.380 --> 00:49:10.315
So I'll pick you up tomorrow

00:49:10.349 --> 00:49:13.150
at 10:30 in front
of the hotel.

00:49:13.385 --> 00:49:14.952
Hey.
Where have you been?

00:49:14.986 --> 00:49:17.955
Me? Where have I been?

00:49:17.989 --> 00:49:19.924
Well I went out first

00:49:19.957 --> 00:49:25.096
and, well, then I stopped off
at the doctor's office.

00:49:25.129 --> 00:49:27.532
Why? Did someone
give you a gift certificate?

00:49:27.566 --> 00:49:30.502
I had a little
ringing in my ear.

00:49:30.535 --> 00:49:33.472
- Huh.
- But it's all gone now.

00:49:33.505 --> 00:49:35.340
I mean, it's, like, 8:00.

00:49:35.374 --> 00:49:38.075
My God, how long
had you been there for?

00:49:38.109 --> 00:49:40.512
There was a line and, uh,

00:49:40.545 --> 00:49:42.913
I got fitted in at the end.

00:49:42.947 --> 00:49:44.549
You kind of smell
like alcohol.

00:49:44.583 --> 00:49:46.150
Have you been drinking?

00:49:46.183 --> 00:49:47.386
- Me?
- Yeah, you.

00:49:47.419 --> 00:49:48.986
You. You.

00:49:49.020 --> 00:49:50.389
What is going on with you?

00:49:50.422 --> 00:49:52.123
You're all, like, in a daze.

00:49:52.156 --> 00:49:56.193
Well I had a drink
with Tomás Lopez.

00:49:56.227 --> 00:49:58.896
We-we, uh,
ran into each other,

00:49:58.929 --> 00:50:01.265
and I had a quick
drink with him

00:50:01.299 --> 00:50:03.267
and that's why
I'm a little late.

00:50:03.301 --> 00:50:04.302
Uh-huh.

00:50:04.336 --> 00:50:05.570
I tried calling you
a few times.

00:50:05.604 --> 00:50:07.472
but you never
picked up your phone.

00:50:07.506 --> 00:50:09.073
What's this?

00:50:09.106 --> 00:50:11.610
It-it's a-it's a book
on Ingmar Bergman.

00:50:11.643 --> 00:50:14.011
The Swedish journalist
gave one to Philippe,

00:50:14.045 --> 00:50:15.112
but he already had it.

00:50:15.146 --> 00:50:16.881
So I know how much
you love Bergman.

00:50:16.914 --> 00:50:18.450
So there you go.

00:50:18.849 --> 00:50:21.185
- It's stunning.
- Come on, come on, come on.

00:50:21.218 --> 00:50:23.087
We gotta go.
Hurry up.

00:50:23.187 --> 00:50:24.889
Not another screening.

00:50:24.922 --> 00:50:27.024
No. A cocktail party.

00:50:27.058 --> 00:50:29.494
If you hate it,
you don't have to go.

00:50:29.528 --> 00:50:31.095
Is Philippe going?

00:50:31.128 --> 00:50:32.431
Well of course
Philippe is going.

00:50:32.464 --> 00:50:34.399
It's in his honor.

00:50:34.566 --> 00:50:37.001
I swear, he hates
parties, too.

00:50:37.034 --> 00:50:39.438
And yet he manages
never to miss one.

00:50:39.471 --> 00:50:41.138
I know.

00:50:41.172 --> 00:50:42.541
It's so silly.

00:50:42.574 --> 00:50:43.908
He complains the whole time,

00:50:43.941 --> 00:50:45.444
but he really loves
all the attention.

00:50:45.477 --> 00:50:47.278
I swear to God,
he's just like a little kid.

00:50:47.312 --> 00:50:48.913
Exactly.

00:50:48.946 --> 00:50:52.983
He's like a little kid
with a narcissistic disorder.

00:50:59.090 --> 00:51:01.426
Yeah, she's so happy.
She starts shooting in March.

00:51:01.460 --> 00:51:03.027
Wow, that's fantastic.
She's got the money?

00:51:03.060 --> 00:51:06.030
Yeah, it's an all-female
version of <i>Lysistrata.</i>

00:51:06.063 --> 00:51:07.366
Huh.

00:51:07.399 --> 00:51:09.066
- Huh.
- There you two are.

00:51:09.100 --> 00:51:09.867
Hi.

00:51:09.900 --> 00:51:11.936
Did you hear about
Philippe's movie

00:51:11.969 --> 00:51:14.639
winning the big prize
in Cologne, Germany today?

00:51:14.673 --> 00:51:16.907
- Very exciting. Huh!
- Mm-hm.

00:51:16.941 --> 00:51:19.944
Wasn't Eichmann from there?

00:51:19.977 --> 00:51:21.145
Well I hope you're both coming

00:51:21.178 --> 00:51:22.414
to the Altxerri Jazz Club
later on.

00:51:22.447 --> 00:51:23.548
Of course.

00:51:23.582 --> 00:51:25.617
I wouldn't miss it
for the world.

00:51:25.650 --> 00:51:27.452
Are you being knighted?

00:51:27.486 --> 00:51:28.953
No.

00:51:28.986 --> 00:51:31.523
Philippe happens to be
a fabulous bongo player

00:51:31.556 --> 00:51:32.657
and he's sitting in
with the band tonight.

00:51:32.691 --> 00:51:33.592
- Not fabulous.
- Oh.

00:51:33.625 --> 00:51:35.192
By the way,
those Swedish journalists

00:51:35.226 --> 00:51:36.395
who saw the movie this morning

00:51:36.428 --> 00:51:38.229
loved, loved, loved, loved it.

00:51:38.262 --> 00:51:39.398
- Yes. Cool.
- Yes.

00:51:39.431 --> 00:51:41.165
Yes, and they wanted to come
and see you play tonight.

00:51:41.198 --> 00:51:42.634
Okay, cool.

00:51:42.667 --> 00:51:45.470
Isn't that exciting, Mort?

00:51:45.504 --> 00:51:50.442
Not since Neil Armstrong
walked onto the moon.

00:53:13.725 --> 00:53:17.194
I never cheated on Mort...

00:53:17.228 --> 00:53:19.163
but I came very close.

00:53:20.632 --> 00:53:23.401
Once with a
prominent architect

00:53:23.435 --> 00:53:25.637
who fell in love with me.

00:53:26.404 --> 00:53:30.575
And he wanted to take me
away to Africa on safari.

00:53:32.744 --> 00:53:35.413
And I really wanted to go.

00:53:36.781 --> 00:53:39.083
But at the last minute,

00:53:39.116 --> 00:53:41.786
I just wasn't ready
to have an affair.

00:53:48.494 --> 00:53:49.952
The silence of God

00:53:52.811 --> 00:53:55.790
drove me crazy.

00:53:57.072 --> 00:53:59.509
Until one day he spoke to me.

00:54:01.161 --> 00:54:04.177
And God said, "I've seen Mort...

00:54:06.068 --> 00:54:09.231
And if I were you

00:54:10.334 --> 00:54:13.013
I'd definitely cheat on him."

00:54:14.872 --> 00:54:18.619
I am lost and confused.

00:54:19.268 --> 00:54:23.618
I believe that God
punishes us for our sins...

00:54:24.188 --> 00:54:26.619
But Sue and myself have no sins.

00:54:27.788 --> 00:54:31.433
And Mort's only sin is -

00:54:31.541 --> 00:54:34.656
that he likes movies with subtitles.

00:54:36.240 --> 00:54:38.810
You know, since coming
to the film festival,

00:54:38.843 --> 00:54:41.846
I have had the strangest
thoughts and dreams.

00:54:41.880 --> 00:54:43.548
Well, you know what they say:

00:54:43.582 --> 00:54:46.351
"Films are like
celluloid dreams."

00:54:46.384 --> 00:54:50.555
So you'll busy with all sorts
of press stuff today?

00:54:50.589 --> 00:54:52.156
Yes, Mort.

00:54:52.189 --> 00:54:53.558
I told you
when you decided to come

00:54:53.592 --> 00:54:55.192
I was gonna be
very, very busy,

00:54:55.225 --> 00:54:56.628
and now here you are
with nobody to play with.

00:54:56.661 --> 00:54:58.195
Oh, no. I'm fine.

00:54:58.228 --> 00:54:59.864
I thought I'd get a car driver

00:54:59.898 --> 00:55:02.400
and look around
outside the town, maybe.

00:55:02.434 --> 00:55:03.635
That's an amazing idea.

00:55:03.668 --> 00:55:04.736
- Hey.
- Oh, hey!

00:55:04.769 --> 00:55:06.136
How are you?
Ready?

00:55:06.170 --> 00:55:08.172
- Oh, my God.
- How are you, Mort? Hi.

00:55:08.205 --> 00:55:11.443
How divine was Philippe
on those bongos last night?

00:55:11.476 --> 00:55:13.845
Oh, thank you, thank you.
I hope it wasn't too loud.

00:55:13.878 --> 00:55:15.513
- Oh, no.
- But I get carried away.

00:55:15.547 --> 00:55:16.648
- Oh, my God.
- No, no.

00:55:16.681 --> 00:55:18.550
I got some earplugs
on the plane,

00:55:18.583 --> 00:55:20.919
and I got a chance
to try them out.

00:55:20.952 --> 00:55:22.721
- Oh, it's 10:15.
- Yeah. I don't wanna...

00:55:22.754 --> 00:55:24.489
- We gotta run. Yeah.
- Ciao, Mort.

00:55:24.522 --> 00:55:26.223
All right.
See you later.

00:56:25.984 --> 00:56:28.486
Let's get some chocolate.
I love chocolate.

00:56:28.520 --> 00:56:29.888
Oh, so do I.

00:56:29.921 --> 00:56:31.423
And I love bread
and chocolate together.

00:56:31.456 --> 00:56:33.558
Oh, they always... yeah.

00:56:33.591 --> 00:56:34.859
Such a beautiful combination.

00:56:34.893 --> 00:56:36.561
What about sandwich
of chocolate?

00:56:36.594 --> 00:56:37.696
Exactly.

00:56:37.729 --> 00:56:38.930
You ever try
a sandwich of chocolate?

00:56:38.963 --> 00:56:40.665
A sandwich of chocolate.

00:56:46.838 --> 00:56:50.240
Okay, so I asked you this
when you were drunk.

00:56:50.274 --> 00:56:51.275
Mm-hm?

00:56:51.309 --> 00:56:53.311
And now I'm gonna
ask you while you're sober.

00:56:53.645 --> 00:56:55.814
If you're having such
difficulty with your marriage,

00:56:55.847 --> 00:56:57.849
why don't you leave?

00:56:58.817 --> 00:56:59.951
I know.

00:56:59.984 --> 00:57:02.854
I guess it's a little bit
of everything.

00:57:03.588 --> 00:57:05.690
He loves me.

00:57:05.724 --> 00:57:08.727
I can't help who he is.

00:57:08.860 --> 00:57:11.295
The ordeal of starting over.

00:57:11.329 --> 00:57:13.832
- A second divorce.
- Mm-hm.

00:57:13.865 --> 00:57:15.900
And then lately,

00:57:15.934 --> 00:57:17.702
I've been tempted
to give up my practice

00:57:17.736 --> 00:57:19.471
and do something else.

00:57:19.504 --> 00:57:22.272
And that desire scares me.

00:57:22.307 --> 00:57:24.409
What-what would you do?

00:57:24.442 --> 00:57:26.845
Anything. I don't know.

00:57:26.878 --> 00:57:28.947
Write, read.

00:57:28.980 --> 00:57:31.783
Maybe just study,
take classes.

00:57:31.816 --> 00:57:35.720
Discover what I really want,
who I really am.

00:57:35.754 --> 00:57:38.456
Maybe just be dilettante.
Is that so bad?

00:57:38.490 --> 00:57:41.559
Just to dabble
with different things,

00:57:41.593 --> 00:57:43.595
to enjoy my life,

00:57:43.828 --> 00:57:46.296
not to have to do anything.

00:57:46.331 --> 00:57:49.601
No more obligations to Paco,

00:57:49.634 --> 00:57:51.636
to all my patients.

00:57:51.970 --> 00:57:53.872
It's amazing how few people

00:57:53.905 --> 00:57:58.343
actually take a moment,
quit the rat race,

00:57:58.376 --> 00:58:01.546
and try to learn
what they want,

00:58:01.579 --> 00:58:04.315
who they are,
who they actually are,

00:58:04.349 --> 00:58:07.585
not who they think
they have to be.

00:58:07.619 --> 00:58:09.587
Do you know who you are?

00:58:10.755 --> 00:58:13.525
You know, I thought I did.

00:58:13.558 --> 00:58:15.093
But, uh,

00:58:15.126 --> 00:58:17.362
boy, since coming here,

00:58:17.395 --> 00:58:21.298
I've had some
very odd thoughts.

00:58:21.432 --> 00:58:25.770
At home, I was totally
preoccupied with my book.

00:58:25.804 --> 00:58:28.106
Then I came
to the film festival.

00:58:28.139 --> 00:58:32.410
My mind started
playing tricks on me.

00:58:32.443 --> 00:58:34.646
Now I'm beginning
to question everything,

00:58:34.679 --> 00:58:36.514
what I want, who I am.

00:58:36.548 --> 00:58:39.017
Who in the world am I?

00:58:39.050 --> 00:58:41.953
I think the problem
with that is

00:58:41.986 --> 00:58:45.690
the answers are not always
what you want to hear.

00:58:45.723 --> 00:58:47.759
I think I was probably
happiest in my life

00:58:47.792 --> 00:58:49.894
when I was teaching movies.

00:58:51.963 --> 00:58:54.699
You know,
the wine has made me tired.

00:58:54.732 --> 00:58:56.935
The wine, or...

00:58:57.202 --> 00:59:00.071
my fascinating conversation?

00:59:30.668 --> 00:59:32.637
<i>Too much, right?</i>

00:59:32.670 --> 00:59:34.005
<i>Yeah, that's great.</i>

00:59:34.038 --> 00:59:35.974
Yeah, great.

00:59:36.007 --> 00:59:38.009
- Aw.
- Look.

00:59:39.110 --> 00:59:41.112
Ah.
Well, then...

00:59:44.482 --> 00:59:45.650
You know, I have been

00:59:45.683 --> 00:59:47.118
so looking forward
to this weekend.

00:59:47.151 --> 00:59:49.187
Friends, countryside,

00:59:49.220 --> 00:59:52.056
and I gotta say,
it has not disappointed.

00:59:52.090 --> 00:59:53.925
Thanks for having us up here,
Paul.

00:59:53.958 --> 00:59:55.126
Next year,
Doris and I are definitely

00:59:55.159 --> 00:59:56.427
gonna rent a place here.

00:59:56.461 --> 00:59:59.063
Well I grew up around here.

00:59:59.097 --> 00:59:59.831
How about you, Mort?

00:59:59.864 --> 01:00:02.667
You're a beach
or a country man?

01:00:02.700 --> 01:00:05.536
Paris is Mort's
fantasy paradise.

01:00:05.570 --> 01:00:07.205
Doris said you
teach film class.

01:00:07.238 --> 01:00:09.574
- That's true, yeah.
- Must be fun.

01:00:09.607 --> 01:00:10.842
Well it can be.

01:00:10.875 --> 01:00:13.978
I mean, most of the kids
are just so-so,

01:00:14.012 --> 01:00:17.482
but I can always get
a small portion of them

01:00:17.515 --> 01:00:20.184
to really appreciate
the great cinema classics,

01:00:20.218 --> 01:00:22.453
and that makes
it all worthwhile.

01:00:22.487 --> 01:00:24.155
When I first
started dating Mort,

01:00:24.188 --> 01:00:27.525
he took me to see <i>Red Desert,</i>
and I was bored;

01:00:27.558 --> 01:00:31.729
and then he took me to see
<i>Last Year at Marienbad,</i>

01:00:31.763 --> 01:00:32.697
and I was bored;

01:00:32.730 --> 01:00:34.599
and then he took me to see
<i>Claire's Knee,</i>

01:00:34.632 --> 01:00:35.633
and I was bored.

01:00:35.667 --> 01:00:38.136
So I married his brother.

01:00:38.169 --> 01:00:40.038
Mort regards any movie
that entertains

01:00:40.071 --> 01:00:42.540
or shows a profit as suspect.

01:00:44.208 --> 01:00:46.511
Okay, Mr. Big Film Maven.

01:00:46.544 --> 01:00:48.880
Tell us what we should rent
to watch up here.

01:00:49.981 --> 01:00:52.650
<i>Chushingura</i> by Inagaki.

01:00:52.684 --> 01:00:53.651
- Mm.
- Oh.

01:00:53.685 --> 01:00:54.485
Who's in it?

01:00:54.519 --> 01:00:58.489
Uh, Yuzo Kayama
and Tatsuya Mihashi.

01:00:58.523 --> 01:01:02.026
Yasumi wrote the screenplay.
Toshio Yasumi.

01:01:02.060 --> 01:01:04.629
There's also <i>Kagemusha</i>

01:01:04.662 --> 01:01:07.165
with Tatsuya Nakadai

01:01:07.198 --> 01:01:11.202
and music by Shinichiro Ikebe.

01:01:21.112 --> 01:01:23.514
- <i>I love you.</i>
- <i>I love you.</i>

01:01:27.118 --> 01:01:29.787
Mm.

01:01:29.821 --> 01:01:33.191
I think your brother
still has a little crush on me.

01:01:33.224 --> 01:01:35.226
It's understandable.

01:01:35.259 --> 01:01:38.863
But it's his hard luck,
you know?

01:01:38.896 --> 01:01:42.800
He met you first,
you guys had a few dates,

01:01:42.834 --> 01:01:44.936
and he had his shot.

01:01:44.969 --> 01:01:46.804
Mm-mm.
He wasn't for me.

01:01:46.838 --> 01:01:49.240
All that highfalutin bullshit.

01:01:49.273 --> 01:01:51.976
"The big questions."

01:01:52.010 --> 01:01:53.244
Give me a break.

01:01:53.277 --> 01:01:55.947
He'll never write
this alleged novel

01:01:55.980 --> 01:01:57.849
he struggles with
year after year.

01:01:57.882 --> 01:01:59.050
I agree.

01:01:59.083 --> 01:02:01.119
If it's not
on the level with Dostoevsky,

01:02:01.152 --> 01:02:02.186
it's beneath him.

01:02:02.220 --> 01:02:03.054
Did you hear him in there,

01:02:03.087 --> 01:02:05.256
talking about those
Japanese movies?

01:02:05.289 --> 01:02:07.592
Was he kidding?

01:02:07.625 --> 01:02:09.727
- He's a pedant.
- I know.

01:02:09.761 --> 01:02:13.598
He writes and then he tears up
the pages in frustration.

01:02:13.631 --> 01:02:16.667
I predict he'll never finish
writing that book

01:02:16.701 --> 01:02:19.637
because it prevents him
from facing an unpleasant truth

01:02:19.670 --> 01:02:23.808
that maybe literary greatness
isn't for him.

01:02:23.841 --> 01:02:27.245
He's afraid of failing.
He always was.

01:02:27.278 --> 01:02:31.215
He equates failing with dying.

01:02:31.249 --> 01:02:33.084
And you notice his wife
didn't come this weekend.

01:02:33.117 --> 01:02:35.887
Yeah. She had to be
in Hollywood for some press,

01:02:35.920 --> 01:02:38.156
and he doesn't like Hollywood.

01:02:38.189 --> 01:02:40.625
I don't know
how she puts up with him.

01:02:40.658 --> 01:02:43.761
He's like a walking
smorgasbord of neurosis.

01:02:43.795 --> 01:02:46.164
She fell in love
with his mind.

01:02:46.197 --> 01:02:48.166
I called that one
from the start.

01:02:48.199 --> 01:02:50.768
She was coming out of
a bad marriage

01:02:50.802 --> 01:02:53.171
to some slick
advertising hotshot,

01:02:53.204 --> 01:02:55.374
and she found Mort brilliant.

01:02:55.407 --> 01:02:59.010
I don't know if
the glow has worn off, but...

01:02:59.043 --> 01:03:02.213
I get the feeling
she's very unsettled.

01:03:02.246 --> 01:03:05.616
She's hot.
She's ambitious.

01:03:05.917 --> 01:03:07.386
Oy.

01:03:07.419 --> 01:03:09.954
I never thought
she'd be happy forever

01:03:09.987 --> 01:03:12.056
with a cranky little introvert

01:03:12.090 --> 01:03:13.024
who's searching for an answer

01:03:13.057 --> 01:03:15.793
to why there's something
rather than nothing.

01:03:15.827 --> 01:03:16.828
Who knows?

01:03:16.861 --> 01:03:19.864
All I know is that
he was too cerebral for me,

01:03:19.897 --> 01:03:23.267
not like his sexy brother.

01:03:23.301 --> 01:03:25.670
- Aw.
- Mm.

01:03:26.371 --> 01:03:29.374
- I love you.
- Mm, I love you, too.

01:03:39.117 --> 01:03:41.052
The day has passed
awfully fast.

01:03:41.085 --> 01:03:42.954
Yes.

01:03:42.987 --> 01:03:45.256
Can we stop by at the market?

01:03:45.289 --> 01:03:48.659
I need to buy Paco
a gift for his birthday.

01:03:48.693 --> 01:03:51.629
Oh, that's very nice of you.

01:03:54.699 --> 01:03:56.734
Do you like flea markets?

01:03:56.767 --> 01:04:00.204
Well if you, uh,
take me to a flea market...

01:04:00.238 --> 01:04:02.240
- You'll come with me?
- I'm gonna like it.

01:04:03.308 --> 01:04:06.777
What do you think
about this old cigarette case?

01:04:06.811 --> 01:04:08.380
It's so deco.

01:04:08.413 --> 01:04:10.715
Yeah.
Does he smoke?

01:04:10.748 --> 01:04:12.984
No.
But it's pretty, no?

01:04:13.017 --> 01:04:14.453
Yeah, it really is,

01:04:14.486 --> 01:04:17.922
but what about getting him
something he can actually use?

01:04:17.955 --> 01:04:20.191
Like, uh, pajamas.

01:04:20.224 --> 01:04:22.894
Oh, he doesn't sleep
in pajamas.

01:04:22.927 --> 01:04:25.296
And I don't think he'd
appreciate a practical present.

01:04:25.330 --> 01:04:28.266
He-he's too theatrical.

01:04:28.666 --> 01:04:31.869
I always wanted
an electric toothbrush.

01:04:34.238 --> 01:04:36.240
What are you thinking?

01:04:36.608 --> 01:04:39.744
I'm thinking
that it's so pretty here.

01:04:39.777 --> 01:04:41.245
And I've never traveled much.

01:04:41.279 --> 01:04:45.283
I've never seen the pyramids
or the Taj Mahal

01:04:45.317 --> 01:04:47.852
or the Grand Canyon.

01:04:48.052 --> 01:04:50.254
I really don't have
any interest in seeing them,

01:04:50.288 --> 01:04:52.757
but...

01:04:52.790 --> 01:04:56.260
the Boulevard Saint-Michel
in the rain

01:04:56.294 --> 01:04:59.096
is a sight that would
make me very happy.

01:05:07.038 --> 01:05:08.739
- What was that?
- Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

01:05:08.773 --> 01:05:10.041
I have no idea.

01:05:10.074 --> 01:05:11.310
Do you think it's a flat tire?

01:05:11.343 --> 01:05:13.512
It could be, yeah.

01:05:13.545 --> 01:05:15.246
Let me see if I can stop here.

01:05:15.279 --> 01:05:17.748
- Um, all right.
- Okay.

01:05:17.782 --> 01:05:19.850
Oh, no.

01:05:19.884 --> 01:05:21.420
I don't know.

01:05:21.453 --> 01:05:24.155
Okay.
Let me just look, okay?

01:05:24.656 --> 01:05:26.891
Can you change a tire?

01:05:26.924 --> 01:05:28.125
Me?

01:05:31.363 --> 01:05:32.364
Okay.

01:05:34.333 --> 01:05:36.300
Do you have any
idea how to use

01:05:36.335 --> 01:05:38.936
one of those automobile jack?

01:05:38.970 --> 01:05:41.340
- No, but I can type.
- Oh, my goodness.

01:05:41.373 --> 01:05:42.807
We have to be very careful,
you know?

01:05:42.840 --> 01:05:44.476
One of us is gonna be
under the car,

01:05:44.509 --> 01:05:46.244
and it could be dangerous.

01:05:46.277 --> 01:05:48.980
Well let's get the tire first.

01:05:49.013 --> 01:05:50.181
Yes.

01:05:50.214 --> 01:05:51.383
I don't wanna be under a car

01:05:51.416 --> 01:05:52.917
that's gonna fall on me.

01:05:52.950 --> 01:05:55.454
I mean, that would put
a crimp in the afternoon.

01:05:57.822 --> 01:05:59.324
- Can you believe it?
- What?

01:05:59.358 --> 01:06:00.958
There is no spare.

01:06:00.992 --> 01:06:02.226
What do you mean
there's no spare?

01:06:02.260 --> 01:06:03.928
There is no spare tire!

01:06:03.961 --> 01:06:06.797
Paco must've used it
and never replaced it.

01:06:06.831 --> 01:06:07.633
Mm.

01:06:07.666 --> 01:06:09.368
- And you never noticed it?
- No.

01:06:09.401 --> 01:06:11.403
Well, normally,
I don't check the trunk.

01:06:11.436 --> 01:06:13.438
- No.
- Well, what can we do?

01:06:13.472 --> 01:06:15.039
Okay, I'll call the garage,

01:06:15.072 --> 01:06:17.241
but it will take forever
for them to come here.

01:06:17.275 --> 01:06:20.479
So we can walk.
I have another car at my house.

01:06:20.512 --> 01:06:22.246
We are not far
from where I live.

01:06:22.280 --> 01:06:23.848
Oh, also,
we could hitch a ride.

01:06:23.881 --> 01:06:24.915
- All right.
- It's that direction.

01:06:24.949 --> 01:06:26.451
It's, like, 30
kilometers or so.

01:06:26.485 --> 01:06:29.053
It's not very far.

01:06:29.086 --> 01:06:30.187
- Thirty...
- Twenty miles.

01:06:30.221 --> 01:06:31.490
Twenty miles?

01:06:41.566 --> 01:06:44.035
I had a great time today.

01:06:44.068 --> 01:06:45.236
Me too.

01:06:47.104 --> 01:06:48.407
Here.

01:06:48.440 --> 01:06:51.476
I, uh, I got you something.

01:06:51.510 --> 01:06:53.077
Me? When?

01:06:53.110 --> 01:06:55.846
Well when you were browsing,
I noticed this,

01:06:55.880 --> 01:06:58.082
and I thought you'd like it.

01:06:58.115 --> 01:06:59.884
I love it.

01:06:59.917 --> 01:07:02.253
It's so beautiful.
How sweet of you.

01:07:02.286 --> 01:07:04.088
Thank you.

01:07:21.072 --> 01:07:22.873
It was fun, though.

01:07:59.444 --> 01:08:01.078
Sorry about this.
I'm sorry.

01:08:01.112 --> 01:08:03.315
Is it safe
to leave you with him?

01:08:03.348 --> 01:08:04.649
Of course it's safe!

01:08:04.683 --> 01:08:06.016
Who are you?

01:08:06.050 --> 01:08:07.552
Just a friend.

01:08:07.586 --> 01:08:09.421
What do you mean,
"is it safe"?

01:08:09.454 --> 01:08:11.323
What kind of stupid
question is that?

01:08:21.065 --> 01:08:23.934
I can drive her back.

01:08:23.968 --> 01:08:26.605
Maybe we could both share
a cab back to town.

01:08:26.638 --> 01:08:29.006
Don't worry.
I can drop you, okay?

01:08:37.148 --> 01:08:40.452
I was drawing her,
and I couldn't resist.

01:08:40.485 --> 01:08:41.986
I'm human.

01:08:42.019 --> 01:08:44.389
There is nothing more
beautiful than a woman

01:08:44.423 --> 01:08:46.123
with no clothes on.

01:08:46.157 --> 01:08:48.993
And she has a perfect form.
Look, look.

01:08:49.026 --> 01:08:51.463
I really should be saying
toodle-oo.

01:08:52.431 --> 01:08:54.666
We-we...
we have an arrangement!

01:08:54.699 --> 01:08:56.334
- Did she tell you that?
- Paco...

01:08:56.368 --> 01:08:58.336
Well, basically, um, uh,

01:08:58.370 --> 01:09:01.673
we were sightseeing
and then we had a flat tire.

01:09:01.706 --> 01:09:04.241
There was no spare tire.

01:09:04.275 --> 01:09:07.612
Sometimes she thinks
she's my moral judge.

01:09:07.646 --> 01:09:09.079
Don't you agree?

01:09:10.582 --> 01:09:12.983
No, don't-don't-don't...
Stop.

01:09:13.017 --> 01:09:13.984
Stop. No.

01:09:14.018 --> 01:09:16.153
- Don't get him into this.
- All right, now...

01:09:22.627 --> 01:09:24.028
Excuse me.

01:09:24.061 --> 01:09:25.730
Sorry. I'm sorry I said that.

01:09:25.764 --> 01:09:27.365
Forgive me.

01:09:28.500 --> 01:09:30.368
Forgive me.

01:09:50.822 --> 01:09:53.157
Well I'm sorry about that.

01:09:53.190 --> 01:09:54.626
It was inexcusable.

01:09:54.659 --> 01:09:56.428
Well it's not your fault.

01:09:56.461 --> 01:09:59.631
It's okay.
Just don't...

01:09:59.664 --> 01:10:01.466
don't let it spoil the day.

01:10:01.500 --> 01:10:04.068
Excuse me, I...
my English is very bad.

01:10:04.101 --> 01:10:06.705
<i>Pero,</i> Paco loves you so much.
Okay?

01:10:10.575 --> 01:10:11.676
<i>Ciao.</i>

01:10:13.645 --> 01:10:15.647
Are you gonna be all right?

01:10:16.280 --> 01:10:17.582
Yeah.

01:10:18.215 --> 01:10:19.216
Sure.

01:10:43.742 --> 01:10:46.444
Oh, hi.
Uh, Mort, right?

01:10:46.478 --> 01:10:48.178
- Right.
- Tomás introduced us.

01:10:48.212 --> 01:10:49.781
- Yes, exactly.
- I'm Gil.

01:10:49.814 --> 01:10:51.248
- Hi, hi.
- Yeah, hi.

01:10:51.282 --> 01:10:53.718
So how's...
how's your health?

01:10:53.752 --> 01:10:55.654
- How's my health?
- Well, yeah.

01:10:55.687 --> 01:10:57.522
Weren't you seeing Dr. Rojas?

01:10:57.556 --> 01:10:59.724
Oh, yeah. Oh, yes.
Much better.

01:10:59.758 --> 01:11:02.293
- I'm much better.
- Yeah, Joanna is so great.

01:11:02.327 --> 01:11:03.862
She's just great.

01:11:03.895 --> 01:11:04.696
I know.

01:11:04.729 --> 01:11:07.131
But have you ever
met her husband?

01:11:07.164 --> 01:11:09.534
Oh, yeah.
He's a... he's a millstone.

01:11:09.568 --> 01:11:12.704
I mean, I just can't believe
that she stays with that guy.

01:11:12.737 --> 01:11:14.739
I know.
You know, he's kind of, um...

01:11:14.773 --> 01:11:16.206
he's so crazy.

01:11:16.240 --> 01:11:18.208
I mean, you know,
he's a wild... you think,

01:11:18.242 --> 01:11:20.345
you know, he could pick her up
and throw her through a window.

01:11:20.378 --> 01:11:22.714
I know. I know.

01:11:22.747 --> 01:11:25.282
I mean, she rationalizes
staying with him.

01:11:25.317 --> 01:11:28.218
I mean, she says that
if-if she left him,

01:11:28.252 --> 01:11:29.688
he'd be totally lost.

01:11:29.721 --> 01:11:30.889
You're a writer, right?

01:11:30.922 --> 01:11:33.758
Since when did relationships
become rational?

01:11:33.792 --> 01:11:35.827
The heart has its reasons.

01:11:35.860 --> 01:11:37.429
How did the press
conference go,

01:11:37.462 --> 01:11:38.797
by the way?

01:11:38.830 --> 01:11:40.197
What press conference?

01:11:40.230 --> 01:11:42.701
That big press thing
this afternoon.

01:11:42.734 --> 01:11:44.536
Oh, there was nothing
this afternoon.

01:11:44.569 --> 01:11:46.203
I mean,
unless you mean the thing

01:11:46.236 --> 01:11:48.306
with the local government
and Philippe.

01:11:48.340 --> 01:11:51.376
The Spaniards are initiating
a Luis Buñuel Award

01:11:51.409 --> 01:11:52.677
to honor filmmakers,

01:11:52.711 --> 01:11:54.178
and Philippe's
gonna kick it off.

01:11:54.211 --> 01:11:56.815
But not this afternoon.
That's-that's tonight.

01:11:56.848 --> 01:11:58.683
There was no action today.

01:11:58.717 --> 01:12:01.185
You should come.
It's gonna be a lot of fun.

01:12:08.793 --> 01:12:10.595
Are you gonna come
to this dinner thing with me?

01:12:10.629 --> 01:12:12.764
I mean, we better hurry.

01:12:14.633 --> 01:12:18.470
So the press conference
went well?

01:12:18.503 --> 01:12:19.771
Yeah, it was fine.

01:12:19.804 --> 01:12:21.006
I mean, it's, you know,
a press conference.

01:12:21.039 --> 01:12:24.208
They ask the same questions
over and over and over again.

01:12:24.241 --> 01:12:27.379
Must've taken all day,
with all those journalists.

01:12:27.412 --> 01:12:28.780
Yeah, it did.

01:12:28.813 --> 01:12:30.682
- You and Philippe?
- Uh-huh.

01:12:30.715 --> 01:12:32.350
You know,
you don't have to come with us

01:12:32.384 --> 01:12:33.217
if you don't want to.

01:12:33.250 --> 01:12:34.653
I mean,
I know you hate these things.

01:12:34.686 --> 01:12:36.821
Oh, no.
That's okay.

01:12:37.055 --> 01:12:40.725
<i>Philippe was being
honored with a Buñuel Award.</i>

01:12:41.059 --> 01:12:43.795
<i>I went out of respect
for Buñuel,</i>

01:12:43.828 --> 01:12:45.764
<i>a director I loved.</i>

01:12:45.797 --> 01:12:48.600
<i>But my mind was on Joanna.</i>

01:12:48.900 --> 01:12:51.903
<i>Talk about picking
the wrong men.</i>

01:12:53.438 --> 01:12:54.439
<i>I left the dinner</i>

01:12:54.472 --> 01:12:56.775
<i>while they were singing
Philippe's praises.</i>

01:12:57.475 --> 01:13:00.478
<i>I remember my dream vividly.</i>

01:13:02.514 --> 01:13:03.682
Dinner was wonderful,

01:13:03.715 --> 01:13:06.283
while the truffles
were exquisite.

01:13:06.317 --> 01:13:07.452
My dear friends,

01:13:07.485 --> 01:13:10.254
there is no food greater
than the food at San Sebastián.

01:13:10.287 --> 01:13:12.490
To the film festival.

01:13:12.524 --> 01:13:14.526
And to all the films
that make cinema an art.

01:13:14.559 --> 01:13:15.827
Yes.

01:13:15.860 --> 01:13:17.962
To the European cinema
and its golden years.

01:13:17.996 --> 01:13:20.498
And to Philippe's film,
a work of art

01:13:20.532 --> 01:13:23.735
and, let's also hope,
a work of commerce.

01:13:23.768 --> 01:13:25.403
And...

01:13:25.437 --> 01:13:26.971
to Mort's novel,

01:13:27.005 --> 01:13:29.273
a work of neither art
nor commerce,

01:13:29.307 --> 01:13:31.443
as it remains,
thus far, unfinished.

01:13:31.476 --> 01:13:33.878
A work in no progress.

01:13:33.912 --> 01:13:35.947
I predict,
if he does finish this novel,

01:13:35.980 --> 01:13:38.550
it would be mired
with thoughts.

01:13:38.583 --> 01:13:42.487
All foreplay, and no orgasm.

01:13:42.921 --> 01:13:44.556
Well it's been
a wonderful evening

01:13:44.589 --> 01:13:47.592
honoring the talent
and the genius of Philippe.

01:13:47.625 --> 01:13:48.827
Here, here.

01:13:48.860 --> 01:13:50.829
And I wanna thank you all
for coming.

01:13:51.261 --> 01:13:52.997
Wait, wait, wait.
Wait, wait, wait.

01:13:53.031 --> 01:13:55.567
Don't go.
Let's have another nightcap.

01:13:55.600 --> 01:13:56.835
And Mort,
will you do me a favor

01:13:56.868 --> 01:13:58.803
and stop mentally
undressing my wife?

01:13:58.837 --> 01:14:02.340
I lift my glass.
It's been a great festival.

01:14:02.373 --> 01:14:05.343
And I have to thank Mort
for the use of his wife.

01:14:05.376 --> 01:14:07.445
- Here, here.
- I seem to have lost my shoe.

01:14:07.479 --> 01:14:10.682
Would you a darling
and look under the table for it?

01:14:11.082 --> 01:14:13.418
You know what I have here?

01:14:13.451 --> 01:14:15.386
A hip flask?

01:14:16.087 --> 01:14:17.589
Ah!

01:14:17.889 --> 01:14:20.058
Why-why do you carry that?

01:14:20.091 --> 01:14:21.593
If ever she leave me,

01:14:21.626 --> 01:14:23.795
I put it to my head
and pull the trigger.

01:14:23.828 --> 01:14:25.930
That's a little extreme,
isn't it?

01:14:25.964 --> 01:14:28.566
Wouldn't a couple of Xanax
do the trick?

01:14:28.600 --> 01:14:32.504
A man who cannot
see himself dying for love

01:14:32.537 --> 01:14:33.905
is not a man.

01:14:50.622 --> 01:14:53.024
Look at these people,

01:14:53.057 --> 01:14:57.095
talking and exchanging
trivial opinions

01:14:57.128 --> 01:15:00.498
and foolish insincerities.

01:15:00.799 --> 01:15:03.668
Let's leave together now,

01:15:03.701 --> 01:15:08.807
put our whole complicated
life situation behind us

01:15:08.840 --> 01:15:12.911
for once and for all
and start over.

01:15:14.879 --> 01:15:18.016
That's the nicest offer
I've ever had.

01:15:18.049 --> 01:15:20.852
You can't spend your life
a hostage to Paco.

01:15:20.885 --> 01:15:23.922
He's impossible to live with.

01:15:23.955 --> 01:15:26.791
I've been waiting...
waiting all my life

01:15:26.825 --> 01:15:28.993
for someone to come
and rescue me.

01:15:29.627 --> 01:15:31.396
Let's go.

01:15:41.539 --> 01:15:43.041
What's wrong?

01:15:43.908 --> 01:15:45.510
I can't.

01:15:45.543 --> 01:15:47.612
- You can't what?
- I can't leave.

01:15:47.645 --> 01:15:50.949
I want to go with you,
but I c... I just can't.

01:15:50.982 --> 01:15:53.351
I'm not sure what you mean.

01:15:54.853 --> 01:15:56.387
- See?
- That's funny.

01:15:56.421 --> 01:15:59.824
I-I don't feel
that I can leave.

01:15:59.858 --> 01:16:00.825
What's wrong?

01:16:00.859 --> 01:16:02.093
Well we're trying

01:16:02.126 --> 01:16:03.528
to walk through the door,
but, uh, it...

01:16:03.561 --> 01:16:06.531
- Just can't.
- It doesn't seem possible.

01:16:06.564 --> 01:16:08.933
- Just walk through the door.
- Uh...

01:16:08.967 --> 01:16:10.602
What's going on?

01:16:10.635 --> 01:16:11.903
Can't leave.

01:16:11.936 --> 01:16:13.605
We're...
we're trying to leave, but...

01:16:13.638 --> 01:16:16.975
Well I have to go home.
I think I left the oven on.

01:16:17.008 --> 01:16:18.776
- <i>Huh? What?</i>
- <i>Hey!</i>

01:16:18.810 --> 01:16:20.111
- Wait, wait.
- Mort, wake up.

01:16:20.144 --> 01:16:21.779
- No! No!
- Hey, hey, hey, hey.

01:16:21.813 --> 01:16:22.881
- What?
- Wake up.

01:16:22.914 --> 01:16:24.115
- You're having a nightmare.
- I am?

01:16:24.148 --> 01:16:26.050
- Yeah.
- What time is it?

01:16:26.084 --> 01:16:28.586
Jesus. 4:00 a.m.?

01:16:28.620 --> 01:16:31.623
- Where have you been?
- I was dancing.

01:16:32.023 --> 01:16:33.691
- At 4:00 a.m.?
- Mm.

01:16:33.725 --> 01:16:35.426
With who?
Let me guess.

01:16:35.460 --> 01:16:38.429
With Philippe.
He's a divine dancer.

01:16:39.764 --> 01:16:42.567
You smell from
diluted ethanol.

01:16:42.600 --> 01:16:44.002
"Diluted ethanol."

01:16:44.035 --> 01:16:45.703
Yeah, I'm a little drunk.

01:16:45.737 --> 01:16:46.971
I've had a couple of vodkas.

01:16:47.005 --> 01:16:48.106
So, you know,

01:16:48.139 --> 01:16:50.441
this is the perfect time
to have this conversation...

01:16:50.475 --> 01:16:52.110
uh, yes, I'm a little drunk,

01:16:52.143 --> 01:16:54.112
and so I have the courage
of the vodka.

01:16:54.145 --> 01:16:56.180
Listen.

01:16:56.214 --> 01:16:58.516
Mort, I think
we should break up.

01:16:58.549 --> 01:16:59.851
What do you mean?

01:16:59.884 --> 01:17:01.753
Come on.

01:17:01.786 --> 01:17:05.523
It's like we've been hanging
on the side of a sinking ship.

01:17:05.556 --> 01:17:06.724
It...

01:17:06.758 --> 01:17:07.959
our marriage doomed.

01:17:07.992 --> 01:17:09.227
We both know it.

01:17:09.260 --> 01:17:12.163
It just... it's gonna take one
of us to make the first move.

01:17:13.498 --> 01:17:15.667
Have you been sleeping
with Philippe?

01:17:15.700 --> 01:17:16.901
Never.

01:17:16.935 --> 01:17:18.636
Except once.

01:17:18.670 --> 01:17:20.538
Well, twice.

01:17:20.571 --> 01:17:24.208
You know, if you count
the stuck elevator and...

01:17:24.242 --> 01:17:25.910
I mean,
if we're gonna be honest,

01:17:25.944 --> 01:17:27.045
you know, three times.

01:17:27.078 --> 01:17:29.080
The beach, that...

01:17:29.113 --> 01:17:30.316
you know,
but the most important thing is

01:17:30.349 --> 01:17:33.818
is that I think that we lay
all of our cards on the table.

01:17:33.851 --> 01:17:36.521
How many cards do you have?
52?

01:17:36.554 --> 01:17:39.624
Listen,
I'm not a cheater, Mort.

01:17:39.657 --> 01:17:40.658
Okay?

01:17:40.692 --> 01:17:42.660
I mean, the thought
that I was a married woman

01:17:42.694 --> 01:17:45.229
almost ruined
all the sex for me.

01:17:45.797 --> 01:17:49.500
I think you're
probably right to...

01:17:49.534 --> 01:17:50.768
call a halt

01:17:50.802 --> 01:17:55.540
to what obviously has become
a kind of charade.

01:17:55.573 --> 01:17:57.608
But, um...

01:17:58.609 --> 01:17:59.944
I'm upset.

01:17:59.978 --> 01:18:01.145
Yeah.

01:18:01.479 --> 01:18:04.015
It's upsetting.

01:18:04.048 --> 01:18:06.517
I mean, we've been together
for so long.

01:18:07.151 --> 01:18:08.286
And it's just...
it's hard, you know,

01:18:08.320 --> 01:18:09.721
when you get used to someone,

01:18:09.754 --> 01:18:11.255
even though it's
kind of obvious

01:18:11.289 --> 01:18:14.492
that this has been over
for a long time.

01:18:15.727 --> 01:18:18.629
We just don't share
anything anymore, right?

01:18:18.663 --> 01:18:20.198
And lately,

01:18:20.231 --> 01:18:21.899
it just seems like
we get on each other's nerves

01:18:21.933 --> 01:18:24.235
at the drop of a hat and...

01:18:24.268 --> 01:18:26.070
I don't know.

01:18:26.438 --> 01:18:29.907
I'm sure it was amazing
with Philippe.

01:18:29.941 --> 01:18:31.609
Well, you know,

01:18:31.642 --> 01:18:33.878
I mean, with us,
there's just no surprises,

01:18:33.911 --> 01:18:36.781
and... with Philippe,

01:18:36.814 --> 01:18:38.583
God, it was just like...

01:18:38.616 --> 01:18:40.818
I just felt like
a woman again.

01:18:40.852 --> 01:18:44.122
You know, just full of,
like, passion and lust

01:18:44.155 --> 01:18:46.657
and kind of a feral animal,

01:18:46.691 --> 01:18:50.695
just willing to try
and do anything.

01:18:50.895 --> 01:18:53.865
Well so much
for the missionary position.

01:18:53.898 --> 01:18:55.166
Mm.

01:18:55.199 --> 01:18:57.268
I really think
it's better that,

01:18:57.301 --> 01:18:59.303
when we get back...

01:19:00.372 --> 01:19:02.307
you know, that I move out.

01:19:02.341 --> 01:19:04.275
Well it's a big apartment.

01:19:04.309 --> 01:19:05.977
It'll be empty without you.

01:19:06.010 --> 01:19:08.646
I'm not gonna take
the furniture, you know?

01:19:08.679 --> 01:19:13.751
I'm just gonna take my books
and-and my clothes.

01:19:14.386 --> 01:19:16.120
Philippe's got a place. So...

01:19:17.055 --> 01:19:18.689
I'll move in with him.

01:19:19.190 --> 01:19:20.258
Oh, you know,
I am gonna wanna keep

01:19:20.291 --> 01:19:22.226
that Andy Warhol silk screen

01:19:22.260 --> 01:19:24.796
and that little
Rauschenberg print.

01:19:25.596 --> 01:19:27.231
But I want you to keep
that caricature

01:19:27.265 --> 01:19:30.335
that the guy made for us
in Washington Square Park.

01:19:32.937 --> 01:19:34.939
<i>"Orange juice for one."</i>

01:19:34.972 --> 01:19:37.309
<i>Larry Hart got it right.</i>

01:19:37.342 --> 01:19:39.911
<i>No matter how screwed up
and unpleasant</i>

01:19:39.944 --> 01:19:41.813
<i>our marriage had become,</i>

01:19:41.846 --> 01:19:44.282
<i>you don't just wash away
a relationship</i>

01:19:44.316 --> 01:19:46.284
<i>that once had such promise</i>

01:19:46.318 --> 01:19:48.853
<i>without a little melancholy.</i>

01:20:05.269 --> 01:20:07.872
What are you doing?
Taxi. T for taxi.

01:20:09.107 --> 01:20:10.942
Oh, hi, Mort.

01:20:10.975 --> 01:20:12.944
I'm so sorry.

01:20:12.977 --> 01:20:16.814
Do you happen to have
Dr. Rojas's home phone?

01:20:16.848 --> 01:20:19.117
I do.
Are-are you not feeling well?

01:20:19.150 --> 01:20:20.184
Not perfect.

01:20:20.218 --> 01:20:22.920
Oh, I'm very sorry.

01:20:22.954 --> 01:20:24.956
Does anybody have a pen?

01:20:25.123 --> 01:20:26.391
You know, I gotta say,

01:20:26.425 --> 01:20:28.826
I'm... I feel so sad
that the festival's ending.

01:20:28.860 --> 01:20:31.028
You know,
it's just been so great here.

01:20:31.062 --> 01:20:32.364
I just love it.

01:20:32.397 --> 01:20:33.764
Yes.

01:20:33.798 --> 01:20:38.669
It's been a very
enlightening experience.

01:20:39.338 --> 01:20:42.874
There you go,
and I hope you feel better.

01:20:42.907 --> 01:20:43.941
Thank you.

01:20:50.081 --> 01:20:51.282
<i>Sí?</i>

01:20:51.316 --> 01:20:53.651
Hi. It's Mort.

01:20:54.085 --> 01:20:56.888
Oh, hi. Hi, Mort.

01:20:57.255 --> 01:20:59.056
In case you were wondering,

01:20:59.090 --> 01:21:01.759
I got your number
from Gil Brenner.

01:21:03.261 --> 01:21:04.829
I don't want to
bother you at home,

01:21:04.862 --> 01:21:09.100
but I just wanted
to make sure you're okay.

01:21:09.834 --> 01:21:11.336
Yes, I'm fine.

01:21:12.371 --> 01:21:14.172
How about you?

01:21:14.272 --> 01:21:15.474
Me?

01:21:15.507 --> 01:21:17.208
I'm okay.

01:21:18.343 --> 01:21:23.014
I just want to say I had
a very nice time yesterday.

01:21:23.315 --> 01:21:25.317
And I did, too.

01:21:25.917 --> 01:21:28.986
I'm sorry
it had to end that way.

01:21:29.020 --> 01:21:31.022
Yes, well-well,
that-that's okay.

01:21:31.055 --> 01:21:32.857
Um...

01:21:33.191 --> 01:21:35.193
are you free today?

01:21:38.996 --> 01:21:39.997
I'm just gonna stay home

01:21:40.031 --> 01:21:44.168
and-and get some things done
around the house.

01:21:44.202 --> 01:21:46.003
Catch up.

01:21:47.071 --> 01:21:48.773
That's important.

01:21:48.806 --> 01:21:52.276
Um, I'm a bit of
a neat freak myself.

01:21:52.843 --> 01:21:54.178
Well...

01:21:54.479 --> 01:21:56.881
the festival is
just about over,

01:21:56.914 --> 01:22:00.851
and I'll be heading
back to New York.

01:22:00.885 --> 01:22:03.455
Wow.
I'm-I'm jealous.

01:22:03.488 --> 01:22:06.791
Throw a penny
in the sailboat pond for me.

01:22:07.191 --> 01:22:08.726
Right.

01:22:09.126 --> 01:22:11.363
And I-I-I so enjoyed

01:22:11.396 --> 01:22:14.765
seeing all those sights
that you showed me.

01:22:14.799 --> 01:22:19.170
The time passes
so amazingly quickly here.

01:22:19.203 --> 01:22:20.304
Yes.

01:22:20.339 --> 01:22:21.473
I mean, it's...

01:22:21.506 --> 01:22:24.942
it's hard to believe
it's fall already.

01:22:25.377 --> 01:22:27.346
Fall's my favorite
time of year.

01:22:27.379 --> 01:22:29.947
Autumn in Paris.

01:22:29.981 --> 01:22:32.950
But you're feeling okay?

01:22:32.984 --> 01:22:36.087
No reflux? No...

01:22:37.389 --> 01:22:42.159
No bumps?
No ringing in the ears?

01:22:42.193 --> 01:22:45.530
I just love the way
you say, "reflux."

01:22:46.498 --> 01:22:50.301
Are you sure you don't have
any free time today?

01:22:50.335 --> 01:22:51.503
Mm. No.

01:22:51.536 --> 01:22:54.105
I don't think
it would be a great idea.

01:22:54.905 --> 01:22:56.841
No, I understand.

01:22:56.874 --> 01:22:58.410
Okay.

01:22:58.443 --> 01:23:02.179
Well if you ever
wanna have a hamburger

01:23:02.213 --> 01:23:04.516
at the Minetta Tavern...

01:23:05.484 --> 01:23:07.486
Who knows?

01:23:08.252 --> 01:23:10.254
So, uh...

01:23:10.888 --> 01:23:12.557
take care.

01:23:13.858 --> 01:23:15.026
Bye.

01:23:33.512 --> 01:23:36.881
<i>I was feeling low and tired</i>

01:23:36.914 --> 01:23:38.450
<i>from my encounter with Sue,</i>

01:23:38.483 --> 01:23:41.118
<i>which left me sleepless.</i>

01:23:43.254 --> 01:23:44.389
<i>Whenever I get depressed,</i>

01:23:44.423 --> 01:23:45.856
<i>I always think</i>

01:23:45.890 --> 01:23:48.360
<i>of my parents' friend
Rose Budnick.</i>

01:23:48.393 --> 01:23:51.028
<i>She finally gave up.</i>

01:23:56.335 --> 01:23:58.903
Why are you here?

01:23:58.936 --> 01:24:01.939
To have our final chess game.

01:24:01.972 --> 01:24:04.975
I don't have a chess set.

01:24:05.142 --> 01:24:07.878
I never leave
home without mine!

01:24:15.320 --> 01:24:16.921
Why are you doing this?

01:24:16.954 --> 01:24:19.056
To give you a chance
to get to know me.

01:24:19.090 --> 01:24:21.626
To come to terms with me.

01:24:21.660 --> 01:24:23.994
I'll never come
to terms with you.

01:24:24.028 --> 01:24:28.199
Then you'll never be able
to relax and enjoy your life.

01:24:28.433 --> 01:24:30.267
Why are you suddenly
being so kind?

01:24:30.301 --> 01:24:32.002
You're usually ruthless.

01:24:32.036 --> 01:24:34.539
I'm not ruthless.
I'm indifferent.

01:24:34.573 --> 01:24:37.007
I just hate to see
a poor schmuck ruin his life

01:24:37.041 --> 01:24:39.076
over the inevitable.

01:24:39.110 --> 01:24:41.413
Well the way
I feel this morning,

01:24:41.446 --> 01:24:44.349
you could take me right now
for all I care.

01:24:44.383 --> 01:24:46.016
What's this morning?

01:24:46.050 --> 01:24:48.119
Well I've had a chance
to look at my life

01:24:48.152 --> 01:24:49.321
over the last few weeks,

01:24:49.354 --> 01:24:50.988
and...

01:24:51.021 --> 01:24:53.492
I realize I've made
a lot of bad decisions.

01:24:53.525 --> 01:24:55.259
Like what?

01:24:55.292 --> 01:24:58.530
Like maybe I
really was a snob,

01:24:58.563 --> 01:25:02.501
the sort of pedantic ass
who puts people off

01:25:02.534 --> 01:25:06.003
with my so-called
highbrow taste.

01:25:06.103 --> 01:25:08.507
All I know is
my wife and I have split

01:25:08.540 --> 01:25:11.108
and my life has come up empty.

01:25:11.142 --> 01:25:13.378
Your life isn't empty.
It's meaningless.

01:25:13.412 --> 01:25:14.979
Don't confuse the two.

01:25:15.012 --> 01:25:16.280
It has no meaning
for everybody,

01:25:16.314 --> 01:25:18.282
but that doesn't mean
it has to be empty.

01:25:18.316 --> 01:25:21.319
You're a human being.
You can make it full.

01:25:21.353 --> 01:25:22.554
How?

01:25:22.587 --> 01:25:26.358
There's work, family, love,

01:25:26.391 --> 01:25:27.659
the usual bullshit.

01:25:27.692 --> 01:25:29.694
But it's reasonably effective.

01:25:29.728 --> 01:25:33.598
Look, even if you strike out,
trying is good for you.

01:25:33.632 --> 01:25:36.435
Did you ever read <i>Sisyphus,</i>
the Camus thing?

01:25:36.468 --> 01:25:39.136
Yes,
and it gave me a bad dream.

01:25:39.170 --> 01:25:40.705
I mean,

01:25:40.739 --> 01:25:44.208
I'm pushing that rock
up the hill over and over,

01:25:44.241 --> 01:25:46.277
and it keeps falling back.

01:25:46.311 --> 01:25:49.548
And then I finally get the
rock up to the top of the hill,

01:25:49.581 --> 01:25:51.215
and then what the hell
do I have?

01:25:51.248 --> 01:25:54.285
A rock on a hill.

01:25:54.319 --> 01:25:57.021
You're starting
to get me depressed.

01:25:57.054 --> 01:25:58.690
Should I just chuck my book

01:25:58.723 --> 01:26:01.326
and go back to
teaching movies?

01:26:01.359 --> 01:26:02.661
I would.

01:26:02.694 --> 01:26:05.162
Unless you want to end up
with 500 pages

01:26:05.196 --> 01:26:07.231
of turgid whining.

01:26:07.264 --> 01:26:10.669
And maybe
I'm just not a book writer.

01:26:10.702 --> 01:26:14.773
Maybe I'm a book reader,
a person who likes to think,

01:26:14.806 --> 01:26:16.140
a teacher.

01:26:16.173 --> 01:26:18.410
My movie class was fun,

01:26:18.443 --> 01:26:20.044
only...

01:26:20.077 --> 01:26:24.382
maybe I was a little
too rigid in my approach.

01:26:24.416 --> 01:26:26.418
I have to go.

01:26:26.451 --> 01:26:28.453
I got a million
house calls to make.

01:26:28.487 --> 01:26:29.521
No, wait! Wait!

01:26:29.554 --> 01:26:30.789
Well don't worry.

01:26:30.822 --> 01:26:32.156
I'll be back one day,

01:26:32.189 --> 01:26:34.191
and then you'll think
it's too soon.

01:26:34.225 --> 01:26:36.428
You'll be back?
When?

01:26:36.761 --> 01:26:38.663
Depends.
Do you smoke?

01:26:38.697 --> 01:26:40.164
No.

01:26:40.197 --> 01:26:41.165
Oh.

01:26:41.198 --> 01:26:44.469
The trick is to eat lots
of fruits and vegetables

01:26:44.503 --> 01:26:46.438
and lay off the
saturated fats.

01:26:46.471 --> 01:26:48.373
Oh, I do.
I'm very careful.

01:26:48.406 --> 01:26:49.808
Good, good.

01:26:49.841 --> 01:26:51.443
Make sure to exercise.

01:26:51.476 --> 01:26:54.513
It doesn't have to be intense
as long as it's every day.

01:26:55.480 --> 01:26:57.248
You're fading out.

01:26:57.349 --> 01:26:59.049
No processed foods,

01:26:59.083 --> 01:27:01.653
and don't forget
your colonoscopy.

01:27:11.630 --> 01:27:14.298
<i>So it was quite a festival.</i>

01:27:14.332 --> 01:27:17.335
<i>I finished with a marriage
that was running on empty</i>

01:27:17.369 --> 01:27:19.771
<i>and I had time
to think about myself</i>

01:27:19.804 --> 01:27:23.341
<i>and examine my own life.</i>

01:27:23.808 --> 01:27:26.378
<i>And then there was Joanna,</i>

01:27:26.411 --> 01:27:30.214
<i>a lovely dream
that didn't quite come true,</i>

01:27:30.247 --> 01:27:33.852
<i>but, for a while there,
it got my adrenaline going.</i>

01:27:33.885 --> 01:27:37.389
<i>So maybe Sisyphus was right.</i>
