All language subtitles for Zabriskie Point (1970)

It's always the same story,
it's been going on for 300 years; if you are so clever,

why didn't you come on our side
right from the beginning?

Now can't do anything else
other than going there

and telling them "we are really sorry"
but the university is closed, on strike,

we'll blow a whistle when it's over

What do you think about boycotting the
recruitment of militaries at the university?

There is only one thing to do:
to go in the recruitment offices,

to take a bottle, to fill it with petrol,
to cork the bottle...

Oh yes,

but what if we want to blow
up sociology instead?

You, listen to me, a molotov is a
mix of petrol and kerosene,

a radical white man
is a mix of chat and shit

Listen to me, I'm not here to show you
my revolutionary credentials,

but there are a lot of white students
fighting on the street,

just as you do in the ghetto,

and there are a lot of unsatisfied white
people who are potentially revolutionary

Here we do again the same talk, guys

When they fly you in jail
because of a bit of marijuana,

then you become revolutionary

But it's when they smash your face in,
when they break your head down

when they prevent you to go to school,
to get a job,

then you have to become revolutionary

That's why you people say that we
negros are living in another...

Wait a moment. You are talking to white
students. I think we understand

yes, a lot of us understand what
makes negros revolutionary,

but what makes white people revolutionary?

The same fucking thing that
makes negros revolutionary

But it doesn't happen the same way

It will happen, don't worry,
you don't need to do anything to make it happen,

you can prevent it, sure, you can break it off,

you can do everything but you can't...
- For example?

This country is falling into Fascism,
can't you see?

I mean, now we have the police in
the university, and then? Where do you want them?

Sitting with us in the class?
And then inside our homes? And then?

On the road, when you go out? Are you
waiting for this to become revolutionary?

What I mean is that we should
close the university, that's it,

and nobody, nobody should get up our nose,

and if they do,
it will be at their own risk and danger

and when they'll decide to reopen it,
they will do it on our conditions

But why stopping the people who want
to go to the lessons? Why...

Because they are against us,
because they prevent us to get what we deserve

we've tried everything: we've begged,
negotiated, written programs,

but we haven't got a damn.

I think, and I'm not the only one,

everybody knows that the main
point of every kind of guerrilla

is that the enemy is invisible, things happen,
and they don't know how and where

People who act to get the attention
on themselves,

do it on purpose
just to divert it from others

I don't think, we have reached this point yet:

we've just begun to involve people

If you want to close the university,
what do you want to...

- We don't even have the support of white people...
- Hey listen to me!

- We need mass demonstrations.
- Just a moment!

The side of the black students
doesn't want to give a show

We just close the university and that's it

Speaking of what you say,
I don't agree, you know,

I mean about the help from white people,
I mean, It doesn't matter so much

because if tomorrow our agitation
is successful,

it's going to be that every student,

in or out of the demonstration, black or white,
will be considered an enemy,

and it will be easier to keep the tension

that we, all together, became a public threat

Well then I share your opinion

There is no more coffee.
Can you make some more?

Isn't there any man who can make coffee?

- Now let's listen to you. - I suggest that we form
some groups of 4 or 5 of us,

that should stay out of the university
and that, at some given moment,

should move behind the police

- Please! - Yes I mean as distracting tactics,

- so the others could have time to reach...
- Just a moment!

Are cars good to build barricades?

- Cars? - Inside the university?

- As tactics to...
- why don't you bring here your own?

It's a sport car, is it ok? Take it here,
then I'll take care of it

Is it possible that you don't
understand that until...

- Silence! - There's only one way to talk
with the white men,

and that's in their own language

if they talk with weapons,
you answer with weapons, it's very easy

- But are you ready to die?
- Many black men already died,

and many others are now dying in this country;

if we are on the top of the movement,
it's because we pay personally.

- I'm also ready to die.
- Alone?

But not of boredom

Who the hell is he?

No no, it's alright, he lives with me.

Maybe meetings aren't his forte

Sorry, but if it wasn't to join us,
why did he come?

Why? Who has the right to say if he
wants to stay here or not?

What kind of bullshit is that

if he wants to be a revolutionary he has
to stay with other people, otherwise...

That's why he came here

There is no revolutionary without other people,

who was Lenin with no organization,
or Castro with no organization,

even anarchists spent their
life in meetings, what the hell

Tell that guy to start reading the
Little Red Book, the first page,

where it says that the revolution cannot
break out anywhere without a revolutionary party

and that if he goes on with his middle-class individualism,
he'll lose his life.

To the end against
the middle-class individualism!

There was an open door on the third
floor, now it's ok.

Is it allowed to go on the roof?

I mean, do you let me go up?

Regulation

I have to take a book,
I forgot it upstairs at lunchtime.

Which book?
Why don't you eat at the cafeteria?

- How was your holiday?
- Well, we'll meet us later.

Who can give me the permission?

- Good evening mister Allen.
- Good evening Tom.

Did you stay up late today?

Yes, I had to work.

May I help you?

Well, I hope. I replaced a secretary today,

I went up at lunchtime

and I forgot... - A book.

- Are you a secretary?
- Actually I don't like it,

I work only when I need it.

Who's that girl?

- A girl from my past past.
- What's her name?

Alice.

My sister.

What's that stuff?

It's a form: in case of roundup,
they release you sooner

if you give it to them already filled up.

"Always ready", don't you have another slogan?

You have to be realist.

Listen up, the day you'll
decide not to resign yourselves,

I'll enter the movement

A lot a people cannot chose,
for many it's a question of survival.

That's what I mean.

- What?
- Really. I'm not joking.

I'm sick of this, young people talk about
violence, and the police does it.

Have you seen that idiot today who said
that one should do something...

...only when it's needed?
Well, I need it before.

Anyway, the demonstration will be
in front of the rectorship all day.

Well, alright.

Here check 1 to surveillance 1AL51.
It's enough for today.

Surveillance to 1AL51.
Break.

What do you want?

A friend of mine was arrested today.

I'd like to know if he's been released.

- One of the students? - Yes.

They are recording them.
It takes some time.

Sit down.

Does it take a lot?
- 5 minutes. Or 5 hours.

Thanks

Empty your pockets.

- Name? - George S. Tolli.

Put your hands above.

- Tolli? - T.O.L.L.I.

- No more names? A nickname?
- No.

Take away your glasses.

- Address?
- 1152 Stock.

- City? - AHA.

- Employment?
- History teacher on annual contract

It's too long George: let's write office-worker

- Money in the wallet?
- Two dollars.

Some of these boys need to be treated

You didn�t say that you're also a doctor?

- And who are you?
- There's a friend of mine here,

I came to pay the bail

You are not allowed to stay there,
off with you

I thought that when someone
comes to pay the bail...

You thought? Did you think
that the regulation was not for you?

Did you think you're someone special?
Off with you

Hey Martin, do you need something?

Here you are, now you can meet your friend

Hands up

What a day!

- Name?
- Karl Marx

How do you write it?

M.A.R.X.

Goodbye

- So? What do you want?
- We'd need some weapons. Self defense.

So, this is the law:
you buy the weapons now

and I verify your criminal record in Sacramento

In 4 or 5 days
you can come here to get them

The law is valid in time of peace.
This is an emergency.

We live in a neighborhood close to...

you understand me...
We have to defend our women

You're right, for God's sake,
you're right.

I won't let you go
with nothing in your hands

In my opinion,
you need at least a caliber 38

Hey boys,

the law accords you the right
to defend your homes:

if you shoot them in the garden,
then drag them indoor

Ok

Thanks

The joy of a beautiful holiday out in the open

The sun of the desert
shining on your swimming-pool

Why breathing the infected air of the city

if you can enjoy your life
with "Sunny Dunes Relax"

Playing tennis on the emerald grass,

walking in the open
in the middle of the desert

taking your kid hunting on wild walks

You could even
spot the mountain lion

Sun, fresh air,
good water in your garden

Become an independent man,

a pioneer's life
in the West's endless horizon

And for you ladies,
a completely furnitured kitchen,

for the happiness of your husband
and your child

And don't forget the pleasure
of a golf game

in the golf court that
Sunny Dunes has prepared for you

Nine holes on a fabulous background

What are you waiting for to leave that
crowded madhouse that's the city?

Move here today, for a new life in
the healthy climate of the desert

Are you getting into aerial acrobatics, Bob?

No, Jane, I'm just flying over the desert

to look for our new home for the holidays

Finding it it's easy,
just call 84868

Can you repeat the number, Bob?

Of course: Sunny Dunes Land Development Company,
Box 82, Los Angeles, California

News from inland:
today the works for the new highway

that connects the hills to the city
of Los Angeles have finished

50.000 citizens had to move
because of the works,

and the houses on the route had been
knocked down.

These are the data provided
by the building department

Vietnam: American soldiers who
died on the Vietnamese front

are nearly 50.000 according to last
data coming from the Pentagon

The number of soldiers being
cured in military hospitals

wasn't notified. Caporal Darry
Marshall from our city

died on the battlefield a week ago

- Did you see here?
- What?

we've got 7 multimillionaires
at this time.

We who?

California.
Texas has 4, but New York beats us

It was time

I see

25 students and 6 professors who belong
to an extremist association have been arrested

Talking at a business men association lunch,

the governor of California said

that the time to put an end to
student riots has come

And now let's go on
to the weather report

directly from the weather station

I want to go and see what's going on.

When you're finished, leave the line free,
perhaps I'll call you

- Good morning
- How are you?

Mister Giorgio, I'm calling because of this:

as I remember,
three days ago you asked me information

about industrial and textile sectors
on the Stock Exchange of New York

Since the market is moving,
I think it's time to do something

- Do you want to see them again?
- No, thanks Tim.

We'll call your principal
if we need some changes

- Hello guys. - Hi.
- Let me have a quick look at the advertisement

No, the meeting is over.
Go to bed

- Yes, mister Allen?
- Nathalie, where's Daria?

I don't know, I haven't seen her.

- Try at home.
- Yes, at once.

I phoned her home, she didn't answer,

maybe she's ill.
- Doesn't matter.

- Goodbye.
- What?

Hallo? Here is Lee's Associate

Do you know where I can find Daria?

- No. She left in the morning.
- Left? On which flight?

- No flight.
She took my car

Do you mind telling me who I am talking with?

Yes, I mind. How are you?

In the next 10 years there'll be
three million people more

- Also more are expected.
- Yes, I read it.

Are this figures valid for the whole country?

No, just for South California.

- Do you understand what it means?
- What?

It means an expansion
of at least 200.000 hectares.

So our position on the market
requires a global expense

of 5000 billions in three years

- Well, I think we can afford it,
can't we? - Yes, of course

Federal and public fees,
the cost of living,

inflation are not even included...

Fuck off

Surround the area all around here.
Block all the entries.

Here is lieutenant Bell
from the metropolitan police department

You've infringed the paragraph 415
of the penal code.

We know you're armed.

If you don't throw away your guns
and come out immediately with your hands up...

...we'll have to take you out
in some other way

Everybody down on the sidewalk

Down, I said!

He's armed!

Stop there, nobody move

Hands up, run

End station

Which bread do you want?

- It's the same. - For me rye bread,
with mayonnaise.

This sandwich with salami is a bit poor,
Bob, I'm not on a diet

If you want more, you'll have to pay more

I'll pay, I'll pay, don't worry

- Hallo?
- It's me

- Where are you?
- In a shop.

It's better for you to disappear,
someone called,

he said you were on television. Were you?

What? - On the news.
- Are you sure?

- He said, it looked like you
- Martin...

Hallo? Mark? Hallo!

- Sorry, can I ask you a favor?
- Of course.

I wanted to know if you can give
a sandwich on credit

You see, the problem is not that I don't
trust you,

but if I trust you than I
have to trust everybody

I see.

Where do you think you're going?

I'll go for a ride and come back,
wanna come with me?

- No thanks.
- As you wish.

Lilly 7, Lilly 7, here is tower AN,
stop the take off,

you're on the wrong runway,

there's traffic landing on
the opposite direction

turn as soon as possible,

Lilly 7, Lilly 7, here's tower AN

I don't know, we agree on the estimate
for the first step - Yes?

Why don't you answer the phone?

Yes. We invested 200 millions
plus 40 for unexpected events

Oh no, just a moment, why locking up 40
millions for the unexpected?

What unexpected?

We found some areas with differences
on the level... - Hallo?

...quite relevant, that's the reason - Hi

Land examinations have pointed out
a density index that...

Wait, I'll take the call in my office

...and then the arrangement of collapsing rocks

How do you calculate...
- And when will we know that?

Nancy! It's difficult to make an estimate,

at least as long as we are on this first stage

What's the matter Daria, where are you?

I'm in a city here in the desert,

I called to tell you that
I'll get late to Phoenix

- But Why? - I'm looking for a place
called Glenville

or Ballyville or something like that

Something with "Ville" inside.

You know the desert, does it ring a bell?

"Ville"... Hold on, wait.

with "Ville". What do you mean?
Like Denville?

A place in the desert,
Denville is in Connecticut.

Or maybe it ends in "Hill",
a word like that

Yes, well, but why
do you want to go to a town

you don't even know the name of?
An appointment?

A friend of mine told me it is
the perfect place to meditate.

- And what are you going to do there?
- Thinking of thoughts

thinking of what? Daria! Listen to me,
give me your number,

I'll try to get the name of the town
and I'll call you back, ok?

No no, or else you'd be capable of sending
an helicopter to fetch me

Daria!

- Please come back in three minutes
- Just a moment miss

Listen up, give me your number
and hang up,

I'll call you back in five minutes,
so that I can pay the call.

See you in Phoenix

Excuse me, do you know a place
here in the surroundings

called Glenville or Ballyville
something like that?

- Barkstead?
- Oh, that's it

- Of course, that's where we are
- Oh really?

Did you come here to visit
a James Patterson by chance?

- How do you know that?
- You have the same look.

Tell him as for me that
he'll be the death of this town,

that he's going to ruin
a piece of American history.

Jimmy?

- Do you remember Jonny Wilson?
- Jonny Wilson? No.

That's me.
I was middleweight world champion.

- Middleweight world champion?
Bravo! - Thank you.

He wants to be a benefactor,

he brought here a pack of children
from Los Angeles

he says, they are ill, traumatized,
do you know what does it mean?

But if Los Angeles doesn't want them,
why should we?

Fuck!

You damned criminals!
Just try to come back!

So, you've seen it with your own eyes,

that glass will cost me 30 dollars

Hey you!
Listen to me!

Hey you!
Hey, come back!

Listen, where's Jimmy?

Where's the guy who brought you here?
Isn't he here with you?

Will you give me a piece of your ass?

- Are you sure you know
what to do with it? - Yes.

What the hell are you doing?

What the hell...
Who the hell is he?

But... But what the hell does that guy want?

Thank you for the T-shirt,
but I don't think it's good for me

Why? Wrong color?

Wrong sex.

- What direction are you taking?
- Phoenix.

Phoenix? There's nothing in Phoenix.

Listen, I'm in trouble.

And, since you are by car,
could you give me a lift?

so that we can go and look for some more petrol.
- Far from here?

I don't know.
That guy said maybe 30 miles.

It's ok.

The radio said,
someone stole a plane this morning.

Tell the truth, was it you?
And why?

To get off the ground

Stop it!

�This is an area of ancient lake beds,

deposited 5 to 10 million years ago.

These beds have been tilted and
pushed upward by earth forces

and eroded by wind and water.
They contain borates and gypsum�

Borates and gypsum?

Two old gold diggers that got lost

How do these plants live here?
They're so beautiful

What else do you do, other than flying?

Until yesterday I've been driving a
wrecker for a cloth storehouse

But I've been doing also other things

- The university?
- A bit.

Why did you leave it?
Graduated?

- Activities out of program.
- What do you mean?

Stealing binded books
instead of pocket editions,

making phone calls from the rector's line,

whistling in the classroom,

bringing in forbidden stuff,
like dogs, bikes or women.

What is wrong on that?

We did it in the open.

Once I went to the office
and I reversed the calculators,

and so...

They kicked me out.

You know why? Because I've sent
engineers to art classes

Uhm, she's coming down too

Tell me the rest of your braveries

Once I painted myself black,
but it didn't work,

so I turned to be as I was before

Did you hear that Mexicans
are bombarding marijuana fields on the border?

I'd like to know what else is happening

Nothing about the demonstration?

No, I prefer to listen to some music

Now they speak about it only if there are
at least 200 or 300 wounded

Yes, some kind of record

Or a dead

Yes, someone killed a policeman,

and someone trampled on the flowerbed

I was looking for a rock station.

They said the guy who killed the
agent was a white man

Uhm, a white man
going on the black's side, eh?

just like the old John Brown

Do you want us to go to the river?

- See you down there!
- Wait!

Hey you, foolhardy!

Are you ok?

Do you want to smoke?

- Look, you're not talking to a free man.
- What does it mean?

Perhaps it's nothing serious,

but the people of my group have some
rules about smoking,

they're bound to reality

What a bore!

Let's look for some shade

What does it mean
"bound to reality"?

Oh yes, they're not able
to imagine anything

Sorry, but, you know, you could have left them

I wasn't really in a group,

you know, all that chatting makes me sick

but at a certain point you have
to decide for one side or the other

There are lots of sides,
not only the good and the bad

Stop it

- What's your name?
- Daria.

The point is that if you don't
recognize them as the bad ones,

you can't get rid of them

Do you think that if we get rid of them,
the world is going to be different?

Why not? Can you think
of something better for us to do?

Us who? Your group?

You and me

You and me?

It's nice here,

It's quiet

It's dead

Ok, It's dead

So let's play a game

You'll start from a side of the valley,

I'll start from the other side

And we'll see, who kills the most

We'll begin with snakes and lizards,
and then go on with wild rabbits

At the end we'll count how many we've killed,

and the winner will kill the looser

Did I say something stupid?
Don't you want to play this game?

I don't want to play any game

It's nice of you to stay
with a guy who doesn't smoke

I'm tolerant

But what are you doing here?
Phoenix, are you serious?

Because of work.
I have to go there

You're really tolerant

Pretend that your thoughts are plants

Ok

What do they look like?
Grown like in a garden

or wild, like a fern or a rambling,
I mean weeds

A sort of jungle

It'd be nice to plant
thoughts in heads,

so that no one would have bad memories

It could be possible to plant, you know,

only the good things you've made

like a happy childhood,

strong parents,

only the good things

Just to forget how horrible it was

That's the point!
There's nothing horrible

Please!

Sometimes I feel like shouting

Why don't you do it?
There's nobody around here,

nothing, just the desert

- But if someone...? - Yeah, a ghost,
you can wake the dead.

At any rate

At any rate

What?

It should be just one word

The name of a place.
Or a river

The river "atanyrate"

- Hey! Look what I've found!
- Uhm, well done

- What's that thing? Chalk?
- It isn't salt.

- Do you want to come with me?
- Where?

Anywhere I'm going

Are you asking seriously?

Are you answering seriously?

They should build a drive-in here.
It'd be a business

Why don't you do it?

Should I? Oh!

- Something wrong?
- No, I was going to the toilet

Where's your car?

I forgot it down there,

together with my chequebook, credit card,
insurance policy, birth certificate and...

Goodbye

What's wrong with you?
Are you crazy?

Is it loaded?

No

- Are you looking for water?
- I'm burning it

Why did you ask me about the strike?
Were you there?

The guy who killed the agent...

No. I wanted to do it,
but someone else did it.

- But they said...
- Who said? - The radio.

I never shot a bullet

You could need it.
It'll be difficult to persuade them

I don't even think about it

Why? I believe you

Let's go back to the car

Let's go away from here. If you cut your hair,
who is going to recognize you?

Do you think I should cut my hair?

No, you look very nice

Maybe they'll think it's not an airplane

�Strange prehistoric bird flies over the Mojave desert,
with the balls hanging�

I think you're crazy flying
this thing back to Los Angeles

Of course. You cannot steal a private plane,
use it as you want,

and then don't go back and thank.

It's nice to see
a young man showing some respect

- It's beautiful. Great Grandpa.
- Of course it's beautiful

Do you really think,
you'll make it?

I'll just land at the end of the runway,
far from the tower,

From there I'll make it. I'll run to the city,
before they realize what happened

Why do you have to take it back?
You can come with me to Phoenix,

- Why do you need to take this chance?
- I like to risk.

- Well, it's beautiful, isn't it?
- Yes, it is.

- Did you use the plane often?
- Yes.

Are you insured
against damage and stealing?

Yes, of course. It's a small plane,
but not cheap at all, you know

My wife liked it a lot.
I painted it with her favorite color, pink

- Did you talk to the young man?
- Yes, I did.

And what did he say?

Well, he asked me to go for a ride,
it seemed that the plane was his own

Did you believe him?

No.

- Well, then why did you let him go away?
- I don't know.

Do you remember how he was dressed?

He was wearing a T-shirt,
and long hair.

- How old do you think he was?
- May, 30. Maybe less, 20. 21

The 4H Club has organized a sport
Sunday at the Schoneberg school stadium

A rodeo will take place, and there�ll
be horses, dust and fun for everybody

and quite a lot of ice creams, I'm sure

Here Lilly 7 is on sight,
coming from north:

it's approaching the landing runway

Received

Take-offs are suspended.
Incoming planes stay on hold

KHT759. Here's KHT652.
Do you copy?

KHT652 to KHT759. You'd have to see it,
you wouldn't believe your eyes

- What's going on? - Nothing, they just
enjoyed themself painting it everywhere.

Call an ambulance

Give me a tool to open it

The attempt of aerial piracy
reached a tragic end this morning

The episode happened when the police, after trying
to block the plane with no results,

had to open the fire.

Several shots from an unidentified
agent reached the cockpit

The young man inside died on the spot.
Stay tuned for more details

Our program goes on with John Payne

- Why, what was he looking like?
- Don't ask her

If this evening I get drunk,
I'll tell you everything

You know, there's nothing
to do this evening

Hello?

It's for you

Hello? hi, she said
she'll be here in a moment

Another time

- Do you need a light?
- Yes, thanks.

It's really interesting,
what Nicky said. It seems,

she was here by the swimming-pool,
she saw everything

Dear Larry,
if these are your last conditions,

I can't see how I could possibly
present them to my partners

Your proposal is unacceptable

Listen Jack, you know very well
that the price of something

is neither high nor low when it's not
referred to its potential use

Right? - Yes.

The only question here is: does this
ground have a value to you?

Honestly,
I don't think it has any.

And we don't want to commit
ourselves more than you do

He talks about potential use.
This is speculation

Why should I accept
speculation prices?

Don't you think they'll come?

What do you think?
Should we hold on?

Daria!

Hey

What happened to you?
Did you fall in the swimming-pool?

Anyway, you're here now,
it's the only thing that counts

Listen up, Now you go downstairs,
and change your dress

Your room is the first on the right,
at the end of the staircase

It's obvious that this area has got a
lot of development possibilities,

such as a beach, a lake, where you can live
quietly, as you please...

...and comfortably

I must say that this business
makes me enthusiastic, but...

Maybe we'll end up finding
gold in this property

If we find water, we'll find also gold for sure

In this country water is gold

Water, electrification,
the landing runway, roads

the arrangement of beaches and all the
other subsidiary equipment

are only details of our general project.
