Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:02:38,514 --> 00:02:39,883
How long is this gonna take?
2
00:02:41,050 --> 00:02:42,454
That's really up to you.
3
00:02:42,853 --> 00:02:44,187
Right, then.
4
00:02:46,390 --> 00:02:48,125
I know how this bit goes.
5
00:02:53,796 --> 00:02:56,766
My name is
Elton Hercules John...
6
00:03:03,539 --> 00:03:05,641
and I'm an alcoholic.
7
00:03:09,546 --> 00:03:11,014
And a cocaine addict.
8
00:03:14,551 --> 00:03:15,786
And a sex addict.
9
00:03:18,855 --> 00:03:20,324
And a bulimic.
10
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,795
I'm also a shopaholic,
who has problems with weed...
11
00:03:26,562 --> 00:03:28,298
prescription drugs...
12
00:03:31,467 --> 00:03:33,270
and anger management.
13
00:03:34,504 --> 00:03:35,637
Why are you here now?
14
00:03:35,639 --> 00:03:37,204
Well, my dealer was out of town.
15
00:03:37,206 --> 00:03:39,242
I thought this seemed like
a good alternative.
16
00:03:47,451 --> 00:03:49,385
I'm here because
I want to get better.
17
00:03:49,951 --> 00:03:52,253
What were you like
as a child, Elton?
18
00:03:52,256 --> 00:03:53,688

Reggie! You're late!
43
00:05:42,499 --> 00:05:45,435
I've had to throw your dinner
in the bin! Get inside.
44
00:05:56,012 --> 00:05:57,245
Is he back?
45
00:05:58,581 --> 00:05:59,814
What am I? Thin air?
46
00:06:00,615 --> 00:06:01,882
Wouldn't get your hopes up.
47
00:06:01,884 --> 00:06:04,317
He's very unreliable
and very selfish.
48
00:06:04,319 --> 00:06:06,588
But will you send him up
if I'm already in bed?
49
00:06:06,589 --> 00:06:07,889
Reggie! Move!
50
00:06:08,257 --> 00:06:10,293
Got to get this done
before I go out.
51
00:06:13,596 --> 00:06:15,161
All right, all done.
52
00:06:15,163 --> 00:06:16,963
Put it away before you go out.
53
00:06:16,964 --> 00:06:18,867
Mum, I've got to go.
54
00:06:19,168 --> 00:06:20,968
Where's my cardigan?
55
00:06:43,759 --> 00:06:46,694
What?
Did I do something wrong?
56
00:06:46,696 --> 00:06:48,127
Bloody hell, Sheila.
57
00:06:48,129 --> 00:06:50,031
Maybe we should
get him some lessons.
58
00:06:50,566 --> 00:06:53,867
Love to. Get him out
from under my feet.
59
00:06:57,139 --> 00:06:58,973
Go on, play it again.
60
00:07:00,341 --> 00:07:02,043
I want to play it for Dad.
61
00:07:08,983 --> 00:07:10,983
Managed to drag yourself
home then.
62
00:07:10,985 --> 00:07:13,353
- Hello, Stanley.
- How are you, Ivy?
63
00:07:13,355 --> 00:07:14,920
Like you care.
64
00:07:14,923 --> 00:07:16,591
Come on.
You're letting in a draft.
65
00:07:21,029 --> 00:07:22,495
How long you back?
66
00:07:22,497 --> 00:07:24,031
I've got
a couple of weeks' leave.
67
00:07:24,298 --> 00:07:26,665
Reggie's not long gone to bed.
68
00:07:26,668 --> 00:07:29,170
Go on. Pop up, say hello.
69
00:07:29,937 --> 00:07:31,172
I'll see him tomorrow.
70
00:07:33,173 --> 00:07:34,641
Any dinner left?
71
00:07:34,643 --> 00:07:37,077
Or have you fed it all
to that boy?
72
00:07:39,146 --> 00:07:41,048
My dad was passionate about...
73
00:07:41,817 --> 00:07:44,119
family and music.
74
00:07:45,153 --> 00:07:47,288
He'd talk for hours about jazz.
75
00:07:48,055 --> 00:07:49,521
He was always hugging me.
76
00:07:49,524 --> 00:07:50,557
I was very lucky.
77
00:07:55,629 --> 00:07:57,999
I was actually
a very happy child.
78
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,940
Dad, is it true
you play piano?
79
00:08:08,942 --> 00:08:10,576
I'm saving to get lessons.
80
00:08:10,579 --> 00:08:12,812
If you want to sit in here,
you'll have to be quiet.
81
00:08:12,814 --> 00:08:16,016
I'm listening to my music.
82
00:08:25,059 --> 00:08:26,995
I like this one, Dad.
83
00:08:32,267 --> 00:08:35,636
Never, ever touch
my collection without asking.
84
00:08:46,313 --> 00:08:48,283
When are you going to hug me?
85
00:08:49,017 --> 00:08:50,384
Don't be soft.
86
00:08:58,827 --> 00:09:00,360
What are you still doing up?
87
00:09:00,662 --> 00:09:01,663
Learning.
88
00:09:02,663 --> 00:09:04,532
Turn off the light.
Go to sleep.
89
00:10:04,759 --> 00:10:07,860
Crumbs! That was energetic!
90
00:10:07,861 --> 00:10:09,429
Play another one.
91
00:10:09,964 --> 00:10:12,231
The "Moonlight Sonata," Reggie.
92
00:10:14,634 --> 00:10:17,302
Mum? My piano teacher
thinks I'm good enough
93
00:10:17,303 --> 00:10:19,673
for a scholarship
at the Royal Academy of Music.
94
00:10:20,975 --> 00:10:23,442
The Royal Academy of Music?
95
00:10:24,076 --> 00:10:26,379
It has a nice ring to it.
96
00:10:26,713 --> 00:10:27,749
"Royal."
97
00:10:28,115 --> 00:10:29,482
Scissors.
98
00:10:31,719 --> 00:10:34,788
- What do you think?
- The red one's good.
99
00:10:36,154 --> 00:10:39,524
- It's only on Saturdays.
- I've things to do on weekends.
100
00:10:39,525 --> 00:10:41,761
- Can't just drop everything.
- I'll take you.
101
00:10:44,398 --> 00:10:47,432
- Where are you off to?
- Don't know.
102
00:10:47,433 --> 00:10:48,735
Haven't decided yet.
103
00:10:49,269 --> 00:10:52,039
But whatever it is,
you're not invited.
104
00:10:52,371 --> 00:10:55,743
Reggie's piano teacher thinks he's
good enough for a scholarship.
105
00:10:56,143 --> 00:10:57,177
Really?
106
00:10:57,644 --> 00:10:59,509
You think he's got
that kind of talent?
107
00:10:59,511 --> 00:11:01,879
Of course, he has.
But you'd know that
108
00:11:01,881 --> 00:11:04,850
if you took the slightest bit of
interest in me or this family.
109
00:11:15,394 --> 00:11:17,563
Stop looking at that.
You're not a girl.
110
00:11:31,210 --> 00:11:34,846
- Can we go home?
- Home? No going home.
111
00:11:34,847 --> 00:11:36,048
This is your life.
112
00:11:36,582 --> 00:11:38,751
You have to get over
that silly shyness.
113
00:11:39,150 --> 00:11:40,485
But Mum says I'll never...
114
00:11:40,486 --> 00:11:42,419
Everybody's frightened
at the beginning.
115
00:11:42,422 --> 00:11:44,758
You play at being confident.
116
00:11:45,826 --> 00:11:47,926
Life gives you
very few chances, Reggie,
117
00:11:47,927 --> 00:11:49,294
and this is one of yours.
118
00:11:49,562 --> 00:11:51,394
You show 'em you can be
as good as they are.
119
00:11:51,397 --> 00:11:53,834
Better. Number one.
You can do that, can't you?
120
00:11:54,466 --> 00:11:57,568
- Yeah, I suppose.
- Good. Go on then. Here.
121
00:11:57,571 --> 00:12:00,573
Here's for a bag of chips
and your bus fare home.
122
00:12:17,756 --> 00:12:19,058
Reginald Dwight?
123
00:12:19,491 --> 00:12:21,726
- Yes.
- Hi. How do you do?
124
00:12:24,196 --> 00:12:25,698
Good, thank you.
125
00:12:26,264 --> 00:12:27,734
Take your coat off.
126
00:12:30,636 --> 00:12:32,673
Did you not bring
something to play?
127
00:12:34,341 --> 00:12:35,573
Didn't know I had to.
128
00:12:37,109 --> 00:12:38,344
I see. Well...
129
00:12:40,446 --> 00:12:41,979
So, can you show me anything
130
00:12:41,980 --> 00:12:45,250
so I can get a sense
of where you're up to?
131
00:13:06,304 --> 00:13:07,706
Why have you stopped?
132
00:13:10,076 --> 00:13:11,476
That's as far as you got.
133
00:13:14,746 --> 00:13:16,746
You might have a good memory,
and a good ear,
134
00:13:16,749 --> 00:13:18,985
but you've an awful lot
of work to do.
135
00:13:20,019 --> 00:13:22,620
So, wrists and back straight.
136
00:13:23,221 --> 00:13:25,388
Let's start
with the C-major scale,
137
00:13:25,389 --> 00:13:27,559
both hands, two octaves.
138
00:13:35,701 --> 00:13:38,269
Hands off the table, Reginald.
Stop making that noise.
139
00:13:41,207 --> 00:13:42,942

Boy... There's a boy there.
170
00:16:15,692 --> 00:16:17,828
Reggie. What you doing?
171
00:16:19,230 --> 00:16:22,933
Hello, son. I'm Fred.
I'm a friend of your mum's.
172
00:16:31,475 --> 00:16:34,311
You tied me down
with that kid years ago,
173
00:16:34,312 --> 00:16:37,011
and now I've finally
got a reason to leave
174
00:16:37,014 --> 00:16:40,250
and be rid of you
and this bloody house!
175
00:17:03,506 --> 00:17:05,741
He didn't even give me
a hug goodbye.
176
00:17:07,510 --> 00:17:09,645
He's no good
at showing affection.
177
00:17:10,114 --> 00:17:11,682
Never has been.
178
00:17:14,352 --> 00:17:17,586
- I wish I was someone else.
- Oh, don't be silly.
179
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:24,760
Well, how do you think I felt?
180
00:17:27,730 --> 00:17:28,999
I was a kid.
181
00:17:34,305 --> 00:17:35,739
Heartbroken.
182
00:17:38,842 --> 00:17:40,743
People don't care though,
do they?
183
00:17:44,681 --> 00:17:45,916
Anyway...
184
00:17:48,785 --> 00:17:50,653
I'd discovered records.
185
00:17:52,556 --> 00:17:54,057
And rock 'n' roll.
186
00:18:00,397 --> 00:18:03,698
I know you like him.
He's quite a dish.
187
00:18:03,700 --> 00:18:06,304
- I would.
- Oh, Mum!
188
00:18:06,737 --> 00:18:09,073
Thanks, Mum. It's fantastic.
189
00:18:09,307 --> 00:18:12,240
You serious about wanting
to be a rock 'n' roller?
190
00:18:12,241 --> 00:18:14,041
Yeah. Of course.
191
00:18:14,044 --> 00:18:16,113
Better get you
the proper haircut, eh?
192
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,950
- Can I get it cut like Elvis?
- Enjoy it while it lasts.
193
00:18:20,250 --> 00:18:21,982
He's like my side
of the family.
194
00:18:21,984 --> 00:18:24,653
He'll be bald as an egg
by the time he's 20.
195
00:18:44,273 --> 00:18:46,473
Congratulations to Dave.
He's won four pork chops,
196
00:18:46,476 --> 00:18:49,210
half a pound of prime mince
and a string of sausages.
197
00:18:49,211 --> 00:18:51,914
Thank you all! Thank you!
198
00:18:52,615 --> 00:18:54,214

Okay.
Well, I'll see you soon.
357
00:27:51,849 --> 00:27:53,650
Thank you for coming in.
Will I hear from you, or...
358
00:27:53,652 --> 00:27:55,320
We'll be in touch.
We'll be in touch. Thank you.
359
00:27:55,587 --> 00:27:58,490
Okay. Thanks so much
for your time.
360
00:27:59,025 --> 00:28:00,859
No worries. Come on.
361
00:28:14,839 --> 00:28:17,138
One frothy coffee, no froth.
362
00:28:17,141 --> 00:28:19,444
- Thanks.
- We close in an hour.
363
00:28:22,347 --> 00:28:24,881
- Bernie Taupin?
- Yeah. You must be Elton?
364
00:28:24,883 --> 00:28:25,949
- Yeah.
- Hi.
365
00:28:25,951 --> 00:28:27,519
Well, that's my stage name.
366
00:28:28,020 --> 00:28:31,356
You can tell me your real name when
we get to know each other better.
367
00:28:31,723 --> 00:28:32,759
Right.
368
00:28:34,291 --> 00:28:36,527
- Uh...
- Um...
369
00:28:37,730 --> 00:28:39,461
- I was thinking... Sorry.
- Have you ever... Sorry.
370
00:28:39,463 --> 00:28:41,432
No, no, please.
After you.
371
00:28:43,067 --> 00:28:45,202
- I like your lyrics.
- Thank you.
372
00:28:45,671 --> 00:28:48,539
Yeah, I got the tape
you sent. It's great.
373
00:28:49,074 --> 00:28:51,509
- Really good.
- Thanks.
374
00:28:52,243 --> 00:28:55,912
Hang on. Don't bother with that one.
That wasn't supposed to be in there.
375
00:28:55,913 --> 00:28:58,516
- That's sent by mistake.
- No, no, that's really good.
376
00:28:58,884 --> 00:29:00,484
I wrote a tune to it.
377
00:29:01,486 --> 00:29:03,152
- Yeah, I...
- "Border Song"?
378
00:29:03,153 --> 00:29:06,823
Yeah. I read it and I could
hear the whole tune in my head.
379
00:29:06,825 --> 00:29:10,059
It was all there, I could see all the
notes, and I just had to get it out.
380
00:29:10,061 --> 00:29:13,464
It was like my fingers couldn't work
fast enough to keep up with my brain.
381
00:29:15,667 --> 00:29:17,099
Do you ever get anything
like that?
382
00:29:17,102 --> 00:29:19,404
Uh... not really, no.
383
00:29:20,105 --> 00:29:22,306
But I can write more
for you, though, Elton.
384
00:29:22,906 --> 00:29:26,210
- I'll just send them down to you.
- Great. That'll be good.
385
00:29:27,112 --> 00:29:28,346
Great.
386
00:29:32,349 --> 00:29:33,617
My real name's Reg Dwight.
387
00:29:33,919 --> 00:29:36,954
Cool. Yeah, that sounds
like a cowboy name.
388
00:29:38,288 --> 00:29:39,557
Yeah, all I ever...
389
00:29:39,958 --> 00:29:41,924
All I ever wanted to be
was a cowboy, you see.
390
00:29:41,926 --> 00:29:43,828
Do you like
country and western music?

- Yeah.

Laredo" by Marty Robbins?

00:32:07,204 --> 00:32:10,204
He's the good-looking one.
We'll make him the singer.
432
00:32:10,207 --> 00:32:13,842
Oh, no, hold on. I'm tone-deaf.
Elton is... He sings the songs.

after that.
528
00:37:57,485 --> 00:37:59,152
The brother I never had.
529
00:38:00,021 --> 00:38:01,954
Do you know, in 20 years,
530
00:38:01,956 --> 00:38:05,824
we have never had
a single argument. Not once.
531
00:38:05,826 --> 00:38:09,030
Anyway, I took his advice,
told Arabella.
532
00:38:10,364 --> 00:38:12,233
She took it very well,
actually.
533
00:38:13,766 --> 00:38:16,867
You bastard!
534
00:38:16,869 --> 00:38:18,369
She's killed my piano.
535
00:38:18,371 --> 00:38:20,974
You treacherous beast!
536
00:38:21,675 --> 00:38:24,844
Your music's as shitty
as you are!
537
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:27,315
Hi, Mum.
538
00:38:27,782 --> 00:38:29,884
I knew you'd be back.
539
00:38:30,585 --> 00:38:33,753
You'll have to pay rent.
I'm not made of money.
540
00:38:41,994 --> 00:38:43,597
- Morning.
- Good morning.
541
00:38:43,929 --> 00:38:46,266
- Get dressed, Reggie!
- Elton.
542
00:38:47,134 --> 00:38:49,237
I'm not having you
moping around here all day.
543
00:38:49,735 --> 00:38:50,771
We're songwriting.
544
00:38:51,271 --> 00:38:53,907
Oh, yeah?
Looks like it's going well.
545
00:38:56,612 --> 00:38:59,577
Right. I will not
have a mess in this house.
546
00:38:59,579 --> 00:39:02,047
It's nice and tidy,
and that's how I want it to stay.
547
00:39:02,516 --> 00:39:04,617
I'll not have
a doss house around here.
548
00:39:04,619 --> 00:39:08,389
I can't do everything.
I can't cook and clean and wash.
549
00:39:09,088 --> 00:39:11,556
Rely upon me to do everything.
It's not fair.
550
00:39:11,559 --> 00:39:12,791
There's egg on this.
551
00:39:16,630 --> 00:39:19,900
I'd better go
take a shave, I think.
552
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:29,141

I love it. Best thing I've
heard since "Let It Be."
592
00:42:57,715 --> 00:42:59,280
Trans-fucking-Atlantic!
593
00:42:59,282 --> 00:43:01,085
Always knew
you boys could do it.
594
00:43:01,652 --> 00:43:04,322
First thing I'm gonna do is
put you on a three-album deal.
595
00:43:04,556 --> 00:43:07,125
- Three?
- A year.
596
00:43:07,626 --> 00:43:09,925
And I got you a couple of
nights at the Troubadour.
597
00:43:09,927 --> 00:43:13,130
- Doug Weston's an old friend.
- Hang on. The Troubadour?
598
00:43:13,431 --> 00:43:16,699
- It's this really cool folk club in LA.
- Yeah, we know what it is, Ray.
599
00:43:16,702 --> 00:43:18,702
Hang on. Now, let's not be
hasty, because the thing is,
600
00:43:18,704 --> 00:43:20,369
I haven't even got
a backing band yet.
601
00:43:20,371 --> 00:43:22,172
No, I've sorted the backup
band, don't worry.
602
00:43:22,507 --> 00:43:24,172
Dick, I don't wanna
appear ungrateful,
603
00:43:24,175 --> 00:43:25,708
but you can't just spring
the Troubadour on me.
604
00:43:25,710 --> 00:43:27,980
Look, it's time to do
something bold, Elton.
605
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:30,916
Granted, America's
a bit of a gamble,
606
00:43:31,416 --> 00:43:33,217
and you fuck up
and I'll kill ya.
607
00:43:34,152 --> 00:43:36,454
But Ray'll go, too.
He'll keep an eye on you.
608
00:43:36,922 --> 00:43:41,059
Buy yourself some new clothes.
Get something flashy.
609
00:43:41,827 --> 00:43:43,461
Let 'em know who you are.
610
00:43:44,295 --> 00:43:46,463
Put on a great fucking show,
611
00:43:47,766 --> 00:43:49,934
and just don't
kill yourself with drugs.
612
00:43:50,233 --> 00:43:52,103
Yeah?
613
00:43:52,704 --> 00:43:53,704
Yeah, all right.
614
00:43:54,873 --> 00:43:56,340
I'm gonna have a massage.

Ray.

00:45:01,304 --> 00:45:03,172
Hey, Doug. Bernie.
Nice to meet you.
632
00:45:03,173 --> 00:45:04,574
- Hi, Bernie.
- Good morning.
633
00:45:05,108 --> 00:45:06,875
- Hi. I'm Elton.
- Oh.
634
00:45:06,876 --> 00:45:08,543
Sweet. How are you?
635
00:45:08,545 --> 00:45:11,112
Monday night at the Troubadour, man.
636
00:45:11,114 --> 00:45:12,614
It's gonna blow your mind.
637
00:45:12,617 --> 00:45:14,920
Be totally packed.
You're gonna love it.
638
00:45:15,318 --> 00:45:17,251
It's a bit different
from what I expected.
639
00:45:17,253 --> 00:45:18,289
Yeah?
640
00:45:18,690 --> 00:45:20,356
Yeah, it's just a bit smaller.
641
00:45:20,358 --> 00:45:22,356
Well, size is
everything, my friend.
642
00:45:22,358 --> 00:45:23,992
Neil Young
played here last week
643
00:45:23,994 --> 00:45:26,762
and there were people lined
around the block.
644
00:45:26,764 --> 00:45:28,965
Man, it was just...
It was the best night ever.
645
00:45:29,467 --> 00:45:31,434
- That's a cool hat.
- Yeah?
646
00:45:31,802 --> 00:45:34,005
- You like it?
- I do like it, yeah.
647
00:45:34,704 --> 00:45:36,771
- I won that hat, in a bet.
- Oh.
648
00:45:36,773 --> 00:45:38,373
- With Bob Dylan.
- Really?
649
00:45:38,376 --> 00:45:39,574
- Yeah.
- That's cool.
650
00:45:39,577 --> 00:45:41,210
Elton. This is the band.
651
00:45:41,211 --> 00:45:43,378
I'm just gonna check
they know what they're doing.
652
00:45:43,380 --> 00:45:45,981
So, you want something to drink?
Get these guys whatever they want.
653
00:45:45,983 --> 00:45:47,416
They just flew in from England
654
00:45:47,751 --> 00:45:49,653
and, boy, their arms are tired.
655
00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:58,528
Whoa, dude,
what the hell are you wearing?
656
00:46:01,731 --> 00:46:02,733
My stage gear.
657
00:46:03,135 --> 00:46:05,567
Where's Reggie? Where's Reggie?
Reggie, Reggie, Reggie.
658
00:46:05,568 --> 00:46:08,237
Neil Diamond is at the bar.
He's talking to Leon Russell
659
00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:11,440
and half the fucking
Beach Boys. Huh?
660
00:46:14,778 --> 00:46:16,512
Jesus, shit, Bernie!
661
00:46:17,414 --> 00:46:18,648
Reggie?
662
00:46:18,983 --> 00:46:21,585
- Elton. I think you're overreacting.
- No.
663
00:46:22,251 --> 00:46:24,952
Bernie, you are under-reacting.
664
00:46:24,954 --> 00:46:27,523
They are the geniuses
of American music.
665
00:46:27,525 --> 00:46:29,257
I can't go out there
in front of that lot!
666
00:46:29,260 --> 00:46:33,527
Okay, okay. Then we'll tell Doug
to refund everyone's ticket,
667
00:46:33,530 --> 00:46:35,630
- and we'll send everybody home.
- Where is he?
668
00:46:35,632 --> 00:46:38,465
- Hey, Ray.
- You've signed a contract!
669
00:46:38,467 --> 00:46:40,001
Dick's paid
your fucking airfare!
670
00:46:40,003 --> 00:46:42,639
Now get out there and play,
you little twat.
671
00:46:50,514 --> 00:46:51,715
Well, come on then.
672
00:46:52,817 --> 00:46:54,784

- Hi.
711
00:50:26,295 --> 00:50:28,030
- Hello.
- You were amazing!
712
00:50:29,231 --> 00:50:30,431
Thank you.
713
00:50:31,333 --> 00:50:34,034
All right.
Enough of this bullshit.
714
00:50:34,036 --> 00:50:36,436
Who wants to go
to a party at Mama Cass's?
715
00:50:37,105 --> 00:50:40,742
I'm so drunk, and Doug's
just lent me his car.
716
00:51:02,797 --> 00:51:06,634
- How cool is this, man?
- Yeah, great.
717
00:51:07,635 --> 00:51:09,536
Apparently Dylan's
here somewhere.
718
00:51:12,472 --> 00:51:13,641
Uh...
719
00:51:14,076 --> 00:51:16,210
I'm gonna go to the teepee
with Heather.
720
00:51:17,012 --> 00:51:19,014
- Really? All right.
- Yeah.
721
00:51:20,148 --> 00:51:21,181
Okay.
722
00:51:21,648 --> 00:51:23,449
- You'll be all right, won't you?
- Yeah, of course.
723
00:51:23,452 --> 00:51:24,684
Yeah, yeah.
724
00:51:30,891 --> 00:51:32,994
So we still gonna go to
Tower Records tomorrow, then?
725
00:51:33,461 --> 00:51:37,798
Uh, well, she's talking about going to
some place called Paradise Cove tomorrow.
726
00:51:39,934 --> 00:51:41,735
But we'll go
another time, though.
727
00:51:41,737 --> 00:51:43,572
- Yeah, of course.

728
00:51:43,905 --> 00:51:44,905

00:51:45,405 --> 00:51:46,806

I know it all seems
a bit overwhelming at first,
767
00:55:14,179 --> 00:55:16,849
but something makes me think
you'll get used to it.
768
00:55:18,885 --> 00:55:22,422
In fact, I predict you could be the
best-selling artist in America if you desire.

as the singer.

at the Troubadour tonight, do you?
772
00:55:36,335 --> 00:55:38,802
Look, I'm in music management,
and let me tell you,
773
00:55:38,804 --> 00:55:42,842
there are moments in a rock
star's life that define who he is

and how people perceive him
as he ascends into the heavens.
775
00:55:50,983 --> 00:55:52,452
You lit the blue touch paper.

00:57:42,994 --> 00:57:45,829
- Okay.
- Things are going crazy. I've extended our stay.
801
00:57:45,831 --> 00:57:48,030
We're in San Francisco
tomorrow for three nights.
802
00:57:48,032 --> 00:57:49,699
- Ray, slow down.
- After that we fly to NYC,
803
00:57:49,701 --> 00:57:51,969
then we're back here for
two more shows, and then...
804
00:57:52,237 --> 00:57:54,639
Dick wants us back in London
to start the new album.
805
00:57:55,206 --> 00:57:57,139
- Doug.
- "Rejoice.
806
00:57:57,141 --> 00:57:59,442
Rock music has a new star.
807
00:57:59,443 --> 00:58:03,213
He's Englishman Elton John,
a 23-year-old,
808
00:58:03,215 --> 00:58:08,985
whose debut at the Troubadour
was, in every way, magnificent."
809
00:58:09,353 --> 00:58:10,985
Whoo!
810
00:58:10,987 --> 00:58:12,188
It's happening, guys.
811
00:58:12,490 --> 00:58:14,125
Just remember,
when you get back...
812
00:58:14,592 --> 00:58:16,025
four shows you owe me.
813
00:58:18,429 --> 00:58:20,264
- You said...
- Four.
814
00:58:20,664 --> 00:58:22,099
Did... You said four shows?
815
00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:24,634
- Yes.
- That's not gonna work!
816
00:58:24,635 --> 00:58:25,670
So...
817
00:58:28,875 --> 00:58:30,407
will I see you
when I get back?
818
00:58:30,409 --> 00:58:33,742
Now, don't worry about me.
Go and enjoy your moment.
819
00:58:33,744 --> 00:58:36,280
- That's what's important.
- Come to London with me.
820
00:58:37,347 --> 00:58:38,981
I can't, but, uh...
821
00:58:38,983 --> 00:58:42,052

No one's
getting phased out, Dick.
903
01:04:09,543 --> 01:04:12,947
Elton feels things will run more
smoothly if he has personal management.
904
01:04:14,248 --> 01:04:17,119
- There's never been a problem before.
- And there isn't one now.
905
01:04:17,987 --> 01:04:21,155
Look, there's loads of work and
commitments, tours, etcetera.
906
01:04:21,157 --> 01:04:23,389
That's what I'll be doing,
personal management.
907
01:04:23,391 --> 01:04:25,393
- Taking care of things.
- Is that right?
908
01:04:25,728 --> 01:04:27,728
You realize I've got
a contract with Elton.
909
01:04:27,730 --> 01:04:29,262
I've had that looked into,
910
01:04:29,264 --> 01:04:30,630
and my client
is quite entitled
911
01:04:30,632 --> 01:04:32,132
to take on
outside representation.
912
01:04:32,134 --> 01:04:33,534
That's what you think.
913
01:04:35,237 --> 01:04:38,373
You fucking poofter.
914
01:04:40,143 --> 01:04:42,978
And you. You're happy
with this arrangement, are ya?
915
01:04:43,411 --> 01:04:44,646
Right?
916
01:04:44,945 --> 01:04:46,148
After all these years?
917
01:04:46,547 --> 01:04:48,282
It's nothing personal, Dick.
918
01:04:52,188 --> 01:04:53,420
Come on, Ray.
919
01:04:58,059 --> 01:04:59,628
Best of luck to you, Elton.
920
01:05:04,465 --> 01:05:07,835
Your very expensive painting
is upside down.
921
01:05:10,605 --> 01:05:13,608
- After you, Mr. James.
- Thank you, Raymond.
922
01:05:15,443 --> 01:05:17,045
Well...
923
01:05:17,512 --> 01:05:19,547
that was absolutely horrible.
924
01:05:20,148 --> 01:05:22,949
Don't worry, it's business.
Dick's a big boy, he'll be fine.
925
01:05:22,951 --> 01:05:27,019
Mr. Reid, Lord Grade's office have called
about the Royal Variety Performance.
926
01:05:27,021 --> 01:05:29,222
Apparently,
the Queen Mother is a big fan.
927
01:05:29,224 --> 01:05:32,559
Couldn't we have kept on Ray?
He's such a lovely guy.
928
01:05:32,561 --> 01:05:34,396
"Lovely guy" is not a job.
929
01:05:35,530 --> 01:05:37,632
This is a crucial time,
Elton.
930
01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:40,632
You and I are gonna
have to be more careful,
931
01:05:40,635 --> 01:05:42,302
'cause the papers
have been sniffing around.
932
01:05:42,304 --> 01:05:44,771
We can't give them
anything to speculate on.
933
01:05:45,072 --> 01:05:47,373
I'm thinking of getting
someone in as your girlfriend.
934
01:05:48,076 --> 01:05:50,577
- Doesn't that seem a bit excessive?
- No, no, no, no, no.
935
01:05:50,778 --> 01:05:52,846
This is your career
and our business at stake.
936
01:05:52,847 --> 01:05:55,349
If our sleeping
arrangements get out...
937
01:05:55,717 --> 01:05:57,652
- all of this is gone.
- Right.
938
01:05:58,085 --> 01:06:00,255
And you're gonna have
to talk to your parents.
939
01:06:00,722 --> 01:06:02,288
Make sure they know
what to say.
940
01:06:02,289 --> 01:06:04,358
Those are the first doors
reporters knock on.
941
01:06:14,235 --> 01:06:17,371
- Hello, Reg.
- Hello, Dad.
942
01:06:23,376 --> 01:06:25,914
Well, come on in.
943
01:06:27,282 --> 01:06:29,483
Well, those are
very fancy shoes.
944
01:06:29,985 --> 01:06:31,719
Oh. Yeah.
945
01:06:33,519 --> 01:06:34,755
I brought you something.
946
01:06:44,398 --> 01:06:45,632
Why are you here, Reg?
947
01:06:48,036 --> 01:06:49,936
The boys.
948
01:06:53,507 --> 01:06:55,708
Dad, there's
a Rolls-Royce outside.
949
01:06:55,710 --> 01:06:57,577
Stephen, Geoff...
950
01:06:58,512 --> 01:07:00,847
this is your brother, Reggie.
951
01:07:01,114 --> 01:07:02,215
Half brother.
952
01:07:02,682 --> 01:07:04,652
Not actually called
Reggie anymore.
953
01:07:05,985 --> 01:07:06,853
Hmm.
954
01:07:07,389 --> 01:07:09,255
I thought maybe
once I'm back from touring,
955
01:07:09,257 --> 01:07:11,226
you and I could
get together, if you like.
956
01:07:11,625 --> 01:07:14,695
I could get you some tickets
to my next concert.
957
01:07:15,429 --> 01:07:17,630
Not really my thing.
958
01:07:19,067 --> 01:07:22,168
Is it true
you're worth 25 million pound?
959
01:07:22,603 --> 01:07:24,735
Do you know,
I don't actually know.
960
01:07:24,737 --> 01:07:27,307
They're really
proud of you. Mmm.
961
01:07:27,942 --> 01:07:30,677
Yeah, we've even got
some of your records.
962
01:07:31,177 --> 01:07:34,514
Why don't you go and get the album?
Grab us a pen.
963
01:07:39,820 --> 01:07:43,891
You probably get asked this all the
time, but would you...
964
01:07:44,623 --> 01:07:46,458
Would you mind signing this?
965
01:07:50,164 --> 01:07:51,496
Yeah, of course.
966
01:07:57,137 --> 01:08:00,074
Oh, no. Would you
make it out to Arthur?
967
01:08:01,507 --> 01:08:03,510
He's one of the blokes
from work.
968
01:08:03,844 --> 01:08:05,478
Yeah, he's a big fan.
969
01:08:06,880 --> 01:08:08,780
- Is he?
- Mm-hmm.
970
01:08:17,056 --> 01:08:18,057
Perfect.
971
01:08:21,028 --> 01:08:22,061
Right.
972
01:08:23,496 --> 01:08:26,833
Well, looks like things worked out
really well second time around, Dad.
973
01:08:27,768 --> 01:08:28,969
- I suppose they have.
- Mmm.
974
01:08:29,603 --> 01:08:32,104
'Cause, you know,
not everybody gets a second chance.
975
01:08:37,010 --> 01:08:40,247
The boys loved
meeting a real-life pop star.
976
01:08:40,747 --> 01:08:42,814
Sure. Thanks, Dad.
977
01:08:43,216 --> 01:08:44,251
Bye.
978
01:08:47,287 --> 01:08:49,087
- When I grow up, Dad...
- Get inside.
979
01:08:49,088 --> 01:08:51,859
What are you doing
without your shoes on?
980
01:08:52,792 --> 01:08:54,627
You're gonna be a draftsman.
981
01:08:56,362 --> 01:08:57,697
Back inside.
982
01:09:25,091 --> 01:09:27,859
What have you got to do to get
a fucking drink around here, eh?
983
01:09:35,768 --> 01:09:37,237
Will you stop sulking?
984
01:09:39,172 --> 01:09:41,274
It has to be done
whether you like it or not.
985
01:09:41,807 --> 01:09:44,010
Are you gonna be scared of her
your whole life?
986
01:09:45,845 --> 01:09:47,078
Right, stop the car.
987
01:09:47,079 --> 01:09:49,614
- Elton...
- I said, stop the car!
988
01:09:54,488 --> 01:09:56,988
You're onstage in 15 minutes.
989
01:09:58,190 --> 01:10:00,690
You're the big-shot manager.
You make my excuses.
990
01:10:00,693 --> 01:10:04,863
Tell them I'm indisposed,
breaking my mother's heart!
991
01:10:05,498 --> 01:10:07,064
Elton. Elton!
992
01:10:07,067 --> 01:10:08,733
Drive 'round, Denis.
993
01:10:09,101 --> 01:10:10,600
Liberace!
994
01:10:18,944 --> 01:10:21,177
Pinner nine, seven,
double-five.
995
01:10:21,180 --> 01:10:23,916
- Mum, it's me.
- I know who you are.
996
01:10:25,784 --> 01:10:27,351
Well, I've got something
to tell you.
997
01:10:27,354 --> 01:10:30,322
Reggie, we're gonna miss
the bit of the show with you on.
998
01:10:30,323 --> 01:10:31,756
Look, shut up, Mum!
999
01:10:32,457 --> 01:10:34,626
I'm not on telly yet, am I?
I'm talking to you.
1000
01:10:36,761 --> 01:10:37,997
I...
1001
01:10:38,697 --> 01:10:40,233
Me and John, we...
1002
01:10:42,435 --> 01:10:43,734
Well, the thing is...
1003
01:10:47,472 --> 01:10:50,309
I'm... a homosexual.
1004
01:10:54,646 --> 01:10:56,180
A poofter.
1005
01:10:57,516 --> 01:10:58,917
A fairy.
1006
01:10:59,684 --> 01:11:00,886
A queen.
1007
01:11:06,391 --> 01:11:07,792
Well, say something.
1008
01:11:11,264 --> 01:11:13,832
Oh, for God's sake,
I know that.
1009
01:11:16,269 --> 01:11:17,369
Known for years.
1010
01:11:19,804 --> 01:11:22,373
- You don't mind?
- Frankly, I don't care.
1011
01:11:23,140 --> 01:11:26,243
But I'd rather you keep
that sort of thing to yourself.
1012
01:11:28,480 --> 01:11:30,813
I just hope you realize
you're choosing a life
1013
01:11:30,814 --> 01:11:32,451
of being alone forever.
1014
01:11:33,618 --> 01:11:36,021
You'll never be loved properly.
1015
01:11:41,827 --> 01:11:43,828
Right. Got to go.
1016
01:11:52,970 --> 01:11:54,905
She said I'll never be loved.
1017
01:11:56,240 --> 01:11:58,106
Don't ever put me
in this position again.
1018
01:11:58,109 --> 01:11:59,376
You're onstage in 10 minutes,
1019
01:11:59,377 --> 01:12:01,177
so get over yourself
and do the show.
1020
01:12:01,180 --> 01:12:03,181
We're running a business here,
you fucking idiot.
1021
01:12:04,949 --> 01:12:07,220
Don't ever put your hands on me.
1022
01:12:11,922 --> 01:12:13,992
Real love's hard to come by.
1023
01:12:21,198 --> 01:12:23,100
So you find a way
to cope without it.
1024
01:13:25,061 --> 01:13:26,796
- You okay?
- Yeah.
1025
01:13:27,298 --> 01:13:29,532
Got the number-one album
in America. Again.
1026
01:13:29,533 --> 01:13:33,935
I'm about to embark on the
highest-grossing tour in rock history.
1027
01:13:33,936 --> 01:13:35,871
I'm personally responsible
for five percent
1028
01:13:35,872 --> 01:13:38,240
of all record sales
on the entire planet,
1029
01:13:38,243 --> 01:13:41,109
and I have the biggest
headdress known to man.
1030
01:13:41,112 --> 01:13:43,078
So, yeah,
I think I'm okay, Bernie.
1031
01:13:43,081 --> 01:13:44,845
It used to just be
the two of us.
1032
01:13:44,847 --> 01:13:46,981
Now there's busloads of people
just to do the music.
1033
01:13:46,984 --> 01:13:48,751
Hang on, hang on,
don't you wanna just
1034
01:13:48,752 --> 01:13:51,456
go out there and sing without
this ridiculous paraphernalia?
1035
01:13:52,088 --> 01:13:55,292
You know,
just be yourself, Reg?
1036
01:13:56,461 --> 01:13:59,194
Why the fuck
would I want that, Bernie?
1037
01:13:59,197 --> 01:14:02,198
You wouldn't say this shit to me
if you were a real friend.
1038
01:14:02,199 --> 01:14:04,865
People don't pay
to see Reginald Dwight.
1039
01:14:04,868 --> 01:14:07,369
They pay to see Elton John!
1040
01:14:07,372 --> 01:14:10,541
Don't ever tell me
how to do my fucking job!
1041
01:14:17,515 --> 01:14:18,550
Break a leg.
1042
01:14:21,386 --> 01:14:22,917
You don't have
to put up with this, Reg.
1043
01:14:22,920 --> 01:14:25,154
Write the fucking lyrics,

Let me deal with the rest.
1045
01:14:33,262 --> 01:14:34,796
- I'm sorry.
- I know.
1046
01:14:34,797 --> 01:14:37,231

01:14:37,234 --> 01:14:41,502

- Where am I?
- At your house in LA, Mr. John.
1060
01:16:03,453 --> 01:16:04,488
Right.
1061
01:16:05,756 --> 01:16:07,256
I'll put some coffee on.
1062
01:16:16,032 --> 01:16:19,033
Darling, I've been thinking,
maybe we should quit the booze
1063
01:16:19,034 --> 01:16:21,572
for a couple of days,
take some quality time together...
1064
01:16:23,273 --> 01:16:24,507
Afternoon.
1065
01:16:25,975 --> 01:16:27,211
Mr. Reid.
1066
01:16:32,849 --> 01:16:34,949
- What are you doing, John?
- Just a bit of rock 'n' roll.
1067
01:16:34,952 --> 01:16:37,787
Rock 'n' roll is not shagging your
secretary in front of the pool boys!
1068
01:16:38,087 --> 01:16:40,657
Rock 'n' roll is getting you
out of your bed in the morning.
1069
01:16:40,890 --> 01:16:43,792
Arranging 250 gigs
in 26 different countries.
1070
01:16:43,793 --> 01:16:46,662
Rock 'n' roll's actually
112 employment contracts,
1071
01:16:46,896 --> 01:16:48,697
insurance, copyright indemnity,
1072
01:16:48,698 --> 01:16:50,832
renegotiating your
previously insane contracts
1073
01:16:50,833 --> 01:16:52,399
and wiping your arse.
1074
01:16:52,402 --> 01:16:54,469
You know, all you do, Elton,
is play the piano.
1075
01:16:54,470 --> 01:16:57,604
But for me, rock 'n' roll is an 87
million-dollar-a-year industry.
1076
01:16:57,606 --> 01:17:00,309
Maybe I just play the piano,
but you know what else I do?
1077
01:17:00,710 --> 01:17:03,045
Hmm? I pay, John.
1078
01:17:03,845 --> 01:17:05,081
For everything.
1079
01:17:05,413 --> 01:17:07,617
Including this house,
which I'd like you to leave now.
1080
01:17:08,016 --> 01:17:11,318
You may still be my manager,
but you and me are finished.
1081
01:17:11,319 --> 01:17:13,319
- You're so predictable.
- No, not predictable.
1082
01:17:13,322 --> 01:17:14,890
I want to be by myself,
1083
01:17:14,891 --> 01:17:18,393
not with some asshole
who doesn't give a shit about me
1084
01:17:18,395 --> 01:17:21,363
and takes the piss
day after day!
1085
01:17:21,631 --> 01:17:24,130
- Get out!
- Yoo-hoo!
1086
01:17:24,131 --> 01:17:25,701
Elton.
1087
01:17:26,969 --> 01:17:28,301
What are they doing here?
1088
01:17:28,304 --> 01:17:29,603
You told me to hire a jet
1089
01:17:29,604 --> 01:17:30,940
and fly them over
for the gig.
1090
01:17:31,606 --> 01:17:34,742
- No, no, next week, John.
- It is next week.
1091
01:17:34,743 --> 01:17:36,476
I'm gonna go
and fetch them a drink.
1092
01:17:36,479 --> 01:17:38,177
Darling, why don't you
clean yourself up,
1093
01:17:38,180 --> 01:17:39,546
because you fucking stink.
1094
01:17:39,548 --> 01:17:43,118
Sheila! It's been too long.
1095
01:17:43,586 --> 01:17:46,185
- Beautiful woman.
- Hello, look at this, you lovely lot.
1096
01:17:46,186 --> 01:17:47,523
- Here we are.
- Hi, Nan.
1097
01:17:48,256 --> 01:17:51,391
- I can't believe I'm actually in America.
- I know.
1098
01:17:51,394 --> 01:17:53,029
- Hi, Dad.
- How you doing? Good to see you.
1099
01:17:53,328 --> 01:17:54,895
- Elton.
- Hello, Mum.
1100
01:17:54,896 --> 01:17:57,497
Elton, darling,
you remember the Andersons
1101
01:17:57,500 --> 01:17:59,733
- from next door, don't you?
- Yes, the Andersons.
1102
01:17:59,734 --> 01:18:01,537
How could we forget
the Andersons?
1103
01:18:01,837 --> 01:18:03,072
- Hello.
- Hello.
1104
01:18:05,106 --> 01:18:08,010
And what a shy little boy
you were.
1105
01:18:08,275 --> 01:18:09,810
Look at you now.
1106
01:18:09,811 --> 01:18:12,177
Elton, you must
give them a tour.
1107
01:18:12,180 --> 01:18:13,581
- Yes, right now, go on.
- Yeah, okay.
1108
01:18:13,582 --> 01:18:15,314
Everyone,
Elton is giving a tour.
1109
01:18:15,317 --> 01:18:18,083
- Mum, you're on my gown.
- Don't be rude.
1110
01:18:24,359 --> 01:18:27,596
Here we go.
Come here, come here. Excited?
1111
01:18:28,396 --> 01:18:29,631
- Car.
- Yeah.
1112
01:18:33,167 --> 01:18:36,069
- Bernie, how's it going, man?
- Hey, man. How's it going?
1113
01:18:36,072 --> 01:18:37,840
No idea who he is.
Of course.
1114
01:18:53,689 --> 01:18:54,823
Here he is!
1115
01:18:55,256 --> 01:18:57,155
Ladies, Elton.
1116
01:18:57,158 --> 01:18:58,225
- Hey.
- Hey.
1117
01:18:59,260 --> 01:19:01,226
What are you
doing on your own up here?
1118
01:19:01,229 --> 01:19:02,662
Miserable bastard.
1119
01:19:02,663 --> 01:19:04,363
You're missing
all the fun downstairs.
1120
01:19:04,365 --> 01:19:06,265
Well, as long as all the fun
isn't missing me,
1121
01:19:06,266 --> 01:19:08,136
then who gives a shit, Bernie?
1122
01:19:11,841 --> 01:19:12,875
We should get a drink.
1123
01:19:13,743 --> 01:19:16,609
- No, we should. Let's go get a drink.
- Come on, it's fine.
1124
01:19:16,612 --> 01:19:19,212
No, we absolutely should.
No, I'm telling you...
1125
01:19:19,213 --> 01:19:21,750
Yeah, go and get
a little drink.
1126
01:19:54,515 --> 01:19:56,448
You look amazing.
1127
01:19:56,451 --> 01:19:59,019
Fucking prick.
1128
01:20:11,198 --> 01:20:13,332

- Yes, sorry. You were saying?
1163
01:24:53,246 --> 01:24:55,914
I was saying
that I think I need a break.

You need to take a break?
1165
01:24:58,451 --> 01:25:01,988

to go and sort myself out a bit.

What?
1167
01:25:05,658 --> 01:25:09,228

both of us just disappear together?

1171
01:25:20,505 --> 01:25:22,408
We'll go to my ranch,
we'll hide away.
1172
01:25:22,640 --> 01:25:24,743
We can write like we did.
1173

Like we used to.
1174
01:25:28,780 --> 01:25:31,283
We should go home, Elton.
1175
01:25:32,417 --> 01:25:33,752
Reconnect.
1176
01:25:38,591 --> 01:25:39,891
No, you should go.
1177
01:25:41,328 --> 01:25:43,962
There are other writers
I'd like to work with anyway.
1178
01:25:44,863 --> 01:25:48,266

01:28:40,537 --> 01:28:42,172
When are you going to hug me?
1211
01:28:43,073 --> 01:28:44,309
Don't be soft.
1212
01:28:45,176 --> 01:28:47,009
Life gives you
very few chances, Reggie,
1213
01:28:47,011 --> 01:28:48,978
- and this is one of yours
- Who are you?
1214
01:28:48,979 --> 01:28:50,779
You can do
anything you want.
1215
01:28:50,780 --> 01:28:53,515
You can be anyone you want.
What do you really want?
1216
01:28:53,518 --> 01:28:55,951
And what
a shy little boy you were.
1217
01:28:55,953 --> 01:28:57,587
Look at you now.
1218
01:28:58,020 --> 01:28:59,988
What do you really want?
1219
01:28:59,989 --> 01:29:02,859
I'm going home... for a while.
1220
01:29:33,957 --> 01:29:35,923
What do you want? I'm busy.
1221
01:29:35,926 --> 01:29:38,161
Why don't you get back in
the studio you're paying for?
1222
01:29:39,564 --> 01:29:43,233
Why don't you sell my fucking records?
What's this? Hmm?
1223
01:29:43,765 --> 01:29:45,466
Number 11 in Italy.
1224
01:29:45,469 --> 01:29:47,768
The song doesn't work,
that's the problem.
1225
01:29:47,770 --> 01:29:49,570
The record's
coked-out MOR shit.
1226
01:29:49,573 --> 01:29:50,573
No, the problem...
1227
01:29:51,140 --> 01:29:55,212
is you have
never understood me...
1228
01:29:55,779 --> 01:29:57,480
and what I have to go through.
1229
01:29:57,814 --> 01:29:59,980
And you know what?
I should've sacked you when you left me.
1230
01:29:59,983 --> 01:30:03,118
I am glad I left you.
It means I can maintain some objectivity
1231
01:30:03,119 --> 01:30:05,787
in your self-indulgent,
myopic little world.
1232
01:30:05,788 --> 01:30:08,292
Get in the studio
and make some music or don't.
1233
01:30:08,591 --> 01:30:09,824
I don't care.
1234
01:30:14,796 --> 01:30:16,832
Well, you will
when your money runs out.
1235
01:30:20,103 --> 01:30:23,270
Do your worst.
In fact, take me to court.
1236
01:30:23,273 --> 01:30:25,475
You signed contracts
with me years ago.
1237
01:30:25,743 --> 01:30:29,579
So I'll still be collecting my 20%
long after you've killed yourself.
1238
01:30:30,813 --> 01:30:32,716
Get out of my fucking house!
1239
01:30:34,451 --> 01:30:35,649

I know.
1279
01:35:03,082 --> 01:35:04,851
Renate didn't deserve that.
1280
01:35:07,956 --> 01:35:09,323
She's a good person.
1281
01:35:11,492 --> 01:35:13,595
I dragged her
into all my madness.
1282
01:35:15,462 --> 01:35:17,599
Did being married
make you happy?
1283
01:35:17,899 --> 01:35:19,899
Not really. I'm gay.
1284
01:35:25,372 --> 01:35:27,539
- I think...
- Hello, Mum.
1285
01:35:27,542 --> 01:35:30,108
- Sir, would you like me to...
- Maybe a bit later, thank you.
1286
01:35:30,109 --> 01:35:31,578
- Hi, Dad.
- Hello, son.
1287
01:35:32,112 --> 01:35:33,345
- You all right?
- Yeah. Good.
1288
01:35:33,347 --> 01:35:36,149
Just talking about poor Renate.
1289
01:35:37,018 --> 01:35:38,353
Such a lovely woman.
1290
01:35:38,653 --> 01:35:40,854
Divorce can be so painful.
1291
01:35:41,689 --> 01:35:44,288
- Yeah.
- Anyway, celebration is in order.
1292
01:35:46,225 --> 01:35:50,261
We found a lovely villa
by the sea.
1293
01:35:50,262 --> 01:35:51,930
It'd be good if you would
talk to John today,
1294
01:35:51,932 --> 01:35:54,833
get the money arranged.
Can't risk losing this one.
1295
01:35:54,836 --> 01:35:56,402
Yeah, in Minorca.
1296
01:35:56,404 --> 01:35:57,703
It is a lovely place.
You should see it.
1297
01:35:57,704 --> 01:35:59,907
- Minorca, eh?
- Mmm.
1298
01:36:02,076 --> 01:36:03,744
What do you want
to go there for?
1299
01:36:04,244 --> 01:36:06,277
- Because you're driving me away.
- Mmm.
1300
01:36:06,279 --> 01:36:08,246
Every time
we open a paper,
1301
01:36:08,247 --> 01:36:11,184
there's something about you and
the booze or the drugs, and...
1302
01:36:11,953 --> 01:36:13,953
you're breaking
your poor mum's heart.
1303
01:36:13,954 --> 01:36:15,954
Tell you what,
I'll write you a check. Hmm?
1304
01:36:15,957 --> 01:36:17,622
So she can go buy a new one.
1305
01:36:17,623 --> 01:36:19,993
Typical that you'd say
something like that about me,
1306
01:36:20,327 --> 01:36:22,260
when I've given up
so much for you.
1307
01:36:22,261 --> 01:36:23,962
What have you given up for me?
1308
01:36:23,965 --> 01:36:27,435
Your father... for a start.
1309
01:36:32,271 --> 01:36:34,507
You really are
a heartless monster.
1310
01:36:38,878 --> 01:36:41,414
You know, I don't live my life
in black and white.
1311
01:36:43,083 --> 01:36:46,720
And I do not want your fucked-up,
frigid ideas about anything.
1312
01:36:50,524 --> 01:36:52,992
You know, I am so sick
1313
01:36:52,993 --> 01:36:54,761
of running away from who I am.
1314
01:36:56,962 --> 01:37:00,131
There's nothing wrong
with success. Or pleasure.
1315
01:37:00,132 --> 01:37:01,498
In fact,
why am I apologizing for it?
1316
01:37:01,501 --> 01:37:03,970
Mum, I have fucked
everything that moves.
1317
01:37:05,572 --> 01:37:08,372
And I've taken
every drug known to man.
1318
01:37:08,375 --> 01:37:09,609
All of them.
1319
01:37:10,944 --> 01:37:11,979
Do you know what?
1320
01:37:13,881 --> 01:37:15,649
I enjoyed
every last minute of it.
1321
01:37:16,050 --> 01:37:18,817
Ever since you first dangled
your fat little legs
1322
01:37:18,819 --> 01:37:20,686
in front of a piano,
you've been lucky.
1323
01:37:21,220 --> 01:37:24,622
You've never worked hard
for a bloody thing in your life.
1324
01:37:24,623 --> 01:37:27,192
It all just comes to you.
You don't do anything.
1325
01:37:27,194 --> 01:37:29,226
And I'm the one who suffers.
1326
01:37:29,229 --> 01:37:31,462
I should never
have had children.
1327
01:37:31,465 --> 01:37:35,868

Bernie?

1349

You left when it suited you.
1350
01:39:29,614 --> 01:39:31,617
Now you come back
to lecture me?
1351
01:39:33,086 --> 01:39:35,987
'Cause the thing is,
the first time we actually got anywhere,
1352
01:39:35,988 --> 01:39:36,922
you left, didn't you?
1353
01:39:37,157 --> 01:39:39,090
Some girl was more important
to you than me
1354
01:39:39,091 --> 01:39:42,094
and all those legends
who were welcoming us in.
1355
01:39:43,929 --> 01:39:46,865
You left me at the most
important time, Bernie.
1356
01:39:47,733 --> 01:39:49,033
When did you give up?
1357
01:39:50,502 --> 01:39:53,470
If you don't care about yourself,
how do you expect anyone else to?
1358
01:39:53,471 --> 01:39:55,774
Whenever I needed you most...
1359
01:39:57,109 --> 01:40:00,711
- you weren't there.
- It's not weak to ask for help.
1360
01:40:00,712 --> 01:40:03,849
I have worked my balls off
to get us out of the shit.
1361
01:40:04,682 --> 01:40:08,118
Day in, day out, for years.
1362
01:40:08,119 --> 01:40:10,753
And now it's me that can't
walk down the streets.
1363
01:40:10,756 --> 01:40:14,126
It's me
who doesn't have a life.

And I hope you can forgive me.
1436
01:47:02,331 --> 01:47:04,932

that's what we need to do now.

- No, your problem is you're selfish.
- No.
1439
01:47:13,175 --> 01:47:15,545
My problem was I believed
you loved me.
1440
01:47:15,810 --> 01:47:17,444
And you're incapable of it.
1441
01:47:17,447 --> 01:47:19,145

in the first place.

- A what?
- He's shy. He's always been shy.
1445
01:47:29,524 --> 01:47:31,193
It's all his father's fault.
1446
01:47:31,659 --> 01:47:35,396
Don't blame me.
He'd have been strange, regardless.

Actually, I think
I'm okay with "strange."

how much I need you.

- Hmm...
1472
01:50:00,140 --> 01:50:01,606
- No.
- No?
1473
01:50:01,609 --> 01:50:03,712
Not in the right place
for that just now.
1474
01:50:04,779 --> 01:50:06,112

1476
01:50:14,154 --> 01:50:15,689
without the drink
and the drugs?
1477
01:50:19,426 --> 01:50:21,127
You know that's not true.
1478
01:50:22,829 --> 01:50:24,762
You're not scared
you're not good without it,
1479

You might be able to lie to
yourself, but you can't lie to me.
1481
01:50:34,039 --> 01:50:36,076
I should be going.
1482
01:50:38,177 --> 01:50:39,412
Don't go.
1483
01:50:41,582 --> 01:50:42,582
Not yet.
