1
00:02:19,641 --> 00:02:20,683
My father...

2
00:02:21,935 --> 00:02:24,103
During his last days, demanded

3
00:02:24,437 --> 00:02:27,440
that some philosophy books
be placed on the locker beside his bed.

4
00:02:28,691 --> 00:02:30,902
My father's taught philosophy
as a profession

5
00:02:31,236 --> 00:02:32,779
and read philosophy for pleasure

6
00:02:33,363 --> 00:02:35,240
and I wrote only novels.

7
00:02:35,824 --> 00:02:39,577
He had a right to think that I inhabited
a space filled with banality,

8
00:02:40,036 --> 00:02:43,623
filled with gross inventions,
foolish plot lines.

9
00:02:46,376 --> 00:02:48,545
The next day I went
to my father�s old apartment

10
00:02:48,837 --> 00:02:51,130
and rummaged through the books
in his study.

11
00:02:51,673 --> 00:02:54,509
I found his old copy
of the Critique of Pure Reason

12
00:02:54,843 --> 00:02:56,469
with many notes in the margin

13
00:02:56,928 --> 00:03:00,932
and his thumb-nailed edition
of Plato�s �Symposium�.

14
00:03:02,016 --> 00:03:04,811
I found a fat volume of Hegel

15
00:03:05,186 --> 00:03:09,691
and an untouched edition
of Derek Parfit�s �On What Matters�.

16
00:03:11,192 --> 00:03:14,737
Put them in a pile on the locker
while he was sleeping.

17
00:03:15,947 --> 00:03:18,116
Once when my father opened his eyes
� �

18
00:03:18,825 --> 00:03:21,870
I showed him the Parfit
�
which was at the top of the pile

19
00:03:22,620 --> 00:03:26,124
and I pronounced the title in
the best English accent I could manage.

20
00:03:26,499 --> 00:03:28,251
�On What Matters�.

21
00:03:29,836 --> 00:03:32,338
It would be nice to say that he smiled
�

22
00:03:33,047 --> 00:03:34,382
but he did not smile.

23
00:03:34,716 --> 00:03:36,009
Instead he spoke:

24
00:03:37,176 --> 00:03:38,386
Heinrich
�

25
00:03:39,012 --> 00:03:41,973
�Heinrich there are only two things
�
that matter� he said
� �

26
00:03:43,224 --> 00:03:45,768
�there is the thing you did
that you regret
�

27
00:03:46,144 --> 00:03:48,271
the thing that cannot be undone
�

28
00:03:49,022 --> 00:03:51,316
and then there is the thing
that you did not do

29
00:03:51,858 --> 00:03:53,109
that you should have done

30
00:03:53,860 --> 00:03:55,403
that you regret too
�

31
00:03:56,237 --> 00:03:57,655
but it�s too late now.

32
00:03:59,532 --> 00:04:03,036
It�s easy to say that these things
do not matter because they�re over
� �

33
00:04:03,411 --> 00:04:04,621
but they do.

34
00:04:05,038 --> 00:04:07,040
They are in fact what matters.
� �

35
00:04:07,707 --> 00:04:10,460
The things in between
do not matter at all�.

36
00:04:12,670 --> 00:04:15,173
�Is that a quote from a book�
I asked him.

37
00:04:15,798 --> 00:04:19,552
Suddenly his voice became almost gentle
�

38
00:04:20,553 --> 00:04:24,057
his tone filled with regret as he said
�

39
00:04:24,766 --> 00:04:25,934
�No�

40
00:04:26,267 --> 00:04:28,144
and then repeated the word
�

41
00:04:28,770 --> 00:04:29,938
�No�

42
00:04:30,355 --> 00:04:31,731
on a sigh.

43
00:04:33,691 --> 00:04:35,526
It would be nice to say that

44
00:04:36,486 --> 00:04:41,074
he then turned over died and that �No�
�
was his last word but it wasn't.
�

45
00:04:41,449 --> 00:04:43,785
He lived for 6 or 7 weeks more.

46
00:04:48,164 --> 00:04:49,582
Is that thunder

47
00:05:08,393 --> 00:05:12,730
In those last weeks my father�s words
�
about what matters hit home.

48
00:05:13,690 --> 00:05:17,735
I almost asked the doctor
if he too indeed if all of us
� � �

49
00:05:18,945 --> 00:05:20,905
if the nurses and the other patients
�

50
00:05:21,489 --> 00:05:23,950
if the porters and the other visitors
�

51
00:05:24,659 --> 00:05:27,328
if the night cleaners
and the taxi drivers outside
�

52
00:05:27,745 --> 00:05:29,872
if we all had done
one thing in our lives

53
00:05:30,248 --> 00:05:31,708
that we knew was wrong
�

54
00:05:32,500 --> 00:05:35,503
and if we all had one thing
we did not do in our lives
�

55
00:05:35,837 --> 00:05:37,338
which we regretted.

56
00:05:38,172 --> 00:05:42,802
And if these two things became
the story of our lives
�

57
00:05:43,594 --> 00:05:47,098
the story of what matter what matters
�
more than anything else matter
�

58
00:05:47,682 --> 00:05:49,183
or ever will matter.

59
00:05:57,734 --> 00:05:59,610
When my father spoke about what matters
�

60
00:06:00,820 --> 00:06:02,321
an image came to me

61
00:06:02,864 --> 00:06:04,657
and remains with me.

62
00:06:05,324 --> 00:06:07,035
It�s an image of two women
�

63
00:06:08,286 --> 00:06:10,079
one whom I caused harm

64
00:06:10,913 --> 00:06:13,124
and the other whom I failed.

65
00:06:14,208 --> 00:06:16,335
Whom I should not have failed
�

66
00:06:16,878 --> 00:06:20,048
who I should be with now
if I�d been wiser then.

67
00:06:21,382 --> 00:06:23,509
Whom I wonder about still.

68
00:06:36,147 --> 00:06:39,525
Thank you so much Max for giving us
�
despite your jetlag
�

69
00:06:40,026 --> 00:06:42,487
a taste of The Hunter and the Hunted.
- Thank you

70
00:06:42,862 --> 00:06:45,531
There will be a longer reading
at the public library tomorrow.

71
00:06:45,865 --> 00:06:46,908
Congratulations

72
00:06:47,241 --> 00:06:48,576
Our publicist has all the details.

73
00:06:49,577 --> 00:06:50,745
It was so great.

74
00:06:53,539 --> 00:06:55,875
So this is my friend Julia.
- Hi Julia. - Hello Max
�

75
00:06:56,292 --> 00:06:59,587
I really really enjoyed your reading.
�
- Thank you.

76
00:07:00,046 --> 00:07:01,380
So you�re Clara�s guy.

77
00:07:01,714 --> 00:07:04,717
You left her alone all winter
in New York and you weren�t worried

78
00:07:06,302 --> 00:07:08,721
We can�t wait.
- The performance was profound.

79
00:07:09,055 --> 00:07:11,432
Hm
- The performance was profound.

80
00:07:16,813 --> 00:07:18,147
Can we go home

81
00:07:18,648 --> 00:07:19,899
Sure.

82
00:07:30,785 --> 00:07:32,745
I can�t believe it.

83
00:07:37,291 --> 00:07:38,334
Max

84
00:07:40,294 --> 00:07:41,420
Walter

85
00:07:43,381 --> 00:07:45,591
Oh So nice to see you again.

86
00:07:46,968 --> 00:07:48,970
It said in the papers

87
00:07:49,303 --> 00:07:52,014
that you've come to make a presentation.

88
00:07:52,515 --> 00:07:54,725
Yeah tomorrow at the public library.
�

89
00:07:56,144 --> 00:07:58,688
Your mom would be proud of you.

90
00:08:00,731 --> 00:08:02,567
Who is this charming creature

91
00:08:02,900 --> 00:08:05,528
This is my wife Clara. This is Walter.
�
- Nice to meet you.

92
00:08:06,445 --> 00:08:07,572
Nice to meet you.

93
00:08:11,033 --> 00:08:15,371
Will you come to the reading
- No no no... tomorrow I�m sorry...
� � �

94
00:08:15,705 --> 00:08:18,666
I've a friend holding a preview
and I promised to go.

95
00:08:20,585 --> 00:08:22,128
Would you care to come with me

96
00:08:23,337 --> 00:08:25,506
No but I... I have the reading.
�

97
00:08:25,965 --> 00:08:27,842
Yes I know I know.
� �

98
00:08:28,551 --> 00:08:29,802
I'm not deaf
�

99
00:08:30,178 --> 00:08:32,263
despite my years. So...

100
00:08:32,638 --> 00:08:34,265
Another book of yours

101
00:08:34,682 --> 00:08:35,725
Yes a novel.
�

102
00:08:37,018 --> 00:08:38,144
Another fiction

103
00:08:39,645 --> 00:08:40,980
Truth.

104
00:08:42,773 --> 00:08:45,902
It�s so good to see you
�
it�s been too long.

105
00:08:46,736 --> 00:08:49,113
I�m sure it will be a big success.

106
00:08:52,283 --> 00:08:55,453
Is this the first time you've been back
after so long

107
00:08:55,786 --> 00:08:58,372
Yes it is
� �
or I would have been in touch.

108
00:08:58,998 --> 00:09:03,294
I would love to arrange a dinner for you
and a few friends.

109
00:09:05,796 --> 00:09:07,548
Thank you.
- You call me

110
00:09:08,382 --> 00:09:09,508
I will.

111
00:09:11,510 --> 00:09:12,637
Goodnight.

112
00:09:15,598 --> 00:09:17,433
You�Il call me
- I will.

113
00:09:18,059 --> 00:09:19,268
How do you know that guy

114
00:09:19,602 --> 00:09:21,520
He�s an old friend.
He financed my studied.

115
00:09:21,854 --> 00:09:23,689
He financed a lot of other things too.

116
00:09:24,398 --> 00:09:26,400
He�s the one
who made the big donation to the Met.

117
00:09:27,151 --> 00:09:29,028
There was a dinner for him
and he didn�t turn up.

118
00:09:29,612 --> 00:09:31,822
Someone told me he collected
unbelievable things.

119
00:09:32,156 --> 00:09:34,408
He looks like the kind of guy
who collects dead bodies.

120
00:09:40,831 --> 00:09:43,459
Goodnight. - Bye.
- Goodnight. - Bye.

121
00:09:45,419 --> 00:09:46,963
So this was Walter.

122
00:09:47,505 --> 00:09:50,716
I knew it the minute I saw him.
Every bit the way you described him.

123
00:09:51,634 --> 00:09:52,718
Was he in the room when I read

124
00:09:53,052 --> 00:09:55,680
Not that I saw.
Maybe somewhere in the back.

125
00:09:56,305 --> 00:09:57,848
He gives me the creeps.

126
00:09:59,016 --> 00:10:00,518
He�s a very gifted man.

127
00:10:00,893 --> 00:10:02,561
It was strange seeing him.

128
00:10:06,148 --> 00:10:08,401
I�m so happy you�re finally here.

129
00:10:09,485 --> 00:10:10,945
Sometimes on the phone

130
00:10:11,279 --> 00:10:14,532
I just couldn�t say that all I wanted
was to get home to you.

131
00:10:15,908 --> 00:10:19,829
I missed you so much
I started to hate you.

132
00:10:21,038 --> 00:10:22,540
I was worried too.

133
00:10:24,041 --> 00:10:25,960
I panicked a few times.

134
00:10:27,003 --> 00:10:29,630
But I knew where you were
and that was the main thing.

135
00:10:34,802 --> 00:10:36,887
How do you know all those people

136
00:10:37,263 --> 00:10:39,890
That�s part of my job:
marketing advertising...
�

137
00:10:40,266 --> 00:10:41,809
it's all got to do with them.

138
00:10:42,226 --> 00:10:45,855
And even little interns from Germany
get to meet writers.

139
00:10:50,401 --> 00:10:51,694
You looked fantastic.

140
00:10:52,111 --> 00:10:53,654
Did I
- Yes you did.
�

141
00:10:54,030 --> 00:10:55,072
Yes.

142
00:12:43,180 --> 00:12:45,558
I love you. You know that.

143
00:13:16,755 --> 00:13:18,299
Two-fifty

144
00:13:18,632 --> 00:13:20,593
Twice as much as last time.

145
00:13:20,926 --> 00:13:24,638
So we got you a phone
and I programmed some numbers in it
�

146
00:13:26,682 --> 00:13:27,808
as you'll see...

147
00:13:32,062 --> 00:13:34,064
Thank you.
- Yeah. Hello

148
00:13:34,565 --> 00:13:35,483
Hello.

149
00:13:37,276 --> 00:13:39,278
OK... so...

150
00:13:41,363 --> 00:13:45,493
A lot of demands for interviews...
After a short press release.

151
00:13:45,826 --> 00:13:47,244
Keep it to a minimum.

152
00:13:47,745 --> 00:13:49,622
You being here
will make a lot of a difference.

153
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:51,957
I�Il do my best.
Don�t give my number to anyone.

154
00:13:52,458 --> 00:13:55,127
What about personal calls
Friends and family

155
00:13:55,544 --> 00:13:56,754
No I don�t have any.
�

156
00:13:57,505 --> 00:13:58,672
Well there�s Mr. Walter.
�

157
00:13:59,507 --> 00:14:00,758
Yeah. He�s the exception.

158
00:14:03,469 --> 00:14:05,763
Could you call him
and invite him to the reading.

159
00:14:06,347 --> 00:14:09,099
I know he won�t come
but ask him for Rebecca�s number.

160
00:14:09,850 --> 00:14:10,976
Rebecca

161
00:14:11,393 --> 00:14:14,313
Yeah he�Il know.
�
It�s an old friend I want to invite.

162
00:14:17,733 --> 00:14:18,859
Is Clara coming down

163
00:14:20,110 --> 00:14:21,028
There she is.

164
00:14:21,487 --> 00:14:24,323
Good morning Lindsey.
�
- Good morning. - Good morning.

165
00:14:24,698 --> 00:14:27,034
How are you
- Good How are you - Thank you.

166
00:14:39,713 --> 00:14:41,340
He loves your work.

167
00:14:41,674 --> 00:14:44,134
...after this message,
we'll be talking with

168
00:14:44,510 --> 00:14:46,387
the Scandinavian author Max Zorn.

169
00:14:48,305 --> 00:14:49,640
Mr. Zorn.

170
00:14:50,516 --> 00:14:52,059
How did you know

171
00:14:52,643 --> 00:14:54,937
Well I was told to look for a gentleman
�

172
00:14:55,271 --> 00:14:58,274
with the distinction
of a European antique dealer.

173
00:14:59,233 --> 00:15:00,442
Right this way.

174
00:15:01,860 --> 00:15:04,405
Now might be a good moment
to call Walter.

175
00:15:08,284 --> 00:15:10,202
Mr. Zorn as an intellectual
� �

176
00:15:10,536 --> 00:15:13,664
a poet a playwright
� �
a novelist living in Berlin
�

177
00:15:14,039 --> 00:15:15,291
let me ask you
�

178
00:15:15,624 --> 00:15:17,793
do you believe that Europe will collapse

179
00:15:18,168 --> 00:15:20,087
as soon as many commentators
are suggesting

180
00:15:20,546 --> 00:15:23,465
Europe is a is a culture
�
before it�s an economy

181
00:15:23,757 --> 00:15:27,261
and that�s something the Americans
have problems understanding.

182
00:15:27,845 --> 00:15:29,388
Maybe because it�s a complex culture.

183
00:15:30,097 --> 00:15:32,016
Our stories are anti-heroic.

184
00:15:32,349 --> 00:15:35,102
If we see someone in power
or a political leader we laugh
� �

185
00:15:35,436 --> 00:15:37,521
because self-deprecation
is our first gear.

186
00:15:39,398 --> 00:15:42,359
Our stories are filled
with idiots and fools

187
00:15:43,277 --> 00:15:44,528
and chancers and losers.

188
00:15:44,862 --> 00:15:46,488
Pinocchios and Don Quixotes.

189
00:15:46,822 --> 00:15:50,242
The Emperor without clothes
or Hamlet or Don Juan...

190
00:15:50,743 --> 00:15:54,496
and that is... that is the bedrock
upon which our house is built.

191
00:15:55,039 --> 00:15:56,874
No matter what happens
in the short term
�

192
00:15:57,416 --> 00:15:59,335
Europe will keep its spirit.

193
00:16:00,502 --> 00:16:05,049
For years you were on the radical side
�
then you campaigned for the Chancellor

194
00:16:06,258 --> 00:16:09,470
and now you support the Greens
and want the borders open even more.

195
00:16:10,095 --> 00:16:11,513
What exactly is your position

196
00:16:12,765 --> 00:16:13,932
Well I�m not a tree.
�

197
00:16:14,767 --> 00:16:15,684
Excuse me

198
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,897
A tree has roots it stands
�
in one place it has a position.
�

199
00:16:20,439 --> 00:16:21,482
I�m an animal.

200
00:16:21,815 --> 00:16:24,234
I�m wild I move I change positions
� � �
I�m flexible.

201
00:16:25,277 --> 00:16:26,320
OK...

202
00:16:26,779 --> 00:16:31,325
So what did he say - It was awkward.
He had me spell your name.

203
00:16:31,700 --> 00:16:32,743
That�s Walter.

204
00:16:33,077 --> 00:16:35,704
Then he confirmed he would not
be attending your event tonight

205
00:16:36,121 --> 00:16:37,706
and finally...

206
00:16:38,165 --> 00:16:40,834
he laughed out loud
when I asked for Rebecca�s number.

207
00:16:41,293 --> 00:16:43,921
�Miss Epstein Esquire Attorney at law�
� �
he said

208
00:16:44,421 --> 00:16:46,674
and asked why you didn�t call yourself.

209
00:16:47,007 --> 00:16:48,217
Mrs. Epstein

210
00:16:51,345 --> 00:16:52,888
Miss Epstein please.
�

211
00:16:53,931 --> 00:16:55,599
For Mr. Max Zorn.

212
00:16:56,934 --> 00:16:58,143
He�s an author.

213
00:16:58,894 --> 00:17:00,729
She knows him. It�s personal.

214
00:17:01,939 --> 00:17:02,981
Thank you.

215
00:17:08,487 --> 00:17:10,030
Ah Miss Epstein hi.
� �

216
00:17:10,364 --> 00:17:12,574
This is Mr. Zorn�s publicist

217
00:17:12,991 --> 00:17:15,994
and he�s in town for his last book
and he�s just wondering

218
00:17:16,370 --> 00:17:17,746
if he could see you

219
00:17:19,415 --> 00:17:21,917
He�s right here in front of me
if you�d like to talk to him

220
00:17:24,044 --> 00:17:26,922
Well he�s in town until Tuesday night...

221
00:17:28,006 --> 00:17:29,883
Yes... I understand... Of course.

222
00:17:32,010 --> 00:17:34,054
What�s going on Why did you do that

223
00:17:34,555 --> 00:17:36,098
She was about to say no wasn�t she
�

224
00:17:38,475 --> 00:17:41,562
It�s better the battery went dead.
Do you have her address

225
00:17:43,272 --> 00:17:44,440
It�s a law firm yeah.
�

226
00:17:44,982 --> 00:17:46,859
Great. Let�s go there.

227
00:17:47,818 --> 00:17:50,612
It�s all the way downtown.
- Yes we�Il take the subway.
�

228
00:17:51,321 --> 00:17:53,532
To do what
- Pay her a visit.

229
00:17:54,908 --> 00:17:56,201
Now

230
00:17:56,535 --> 00:17:57,953
Well she�s there now isn�t she
�

231
00:17:59,288 --> 00:18:01,665
Well you can�t do that.
You won�t get past security.

232
00:18:04,168 --> 00:18:05,210
Z.O.R.N.

233
00:18:05,544 --> 00:18:07,963
I cannot let you through
without a proper appointment.

234
00:18:08,297 --> 00:18:11,633
I know her she�s an old friend
�
- OK listen just let me handle it OK
� � �

235
00:18:13,135 --> 00:18:15,804
Could I talk to her on the phone
�
please Thank you.

236
00:18:17,681 --> 00:18:20,934
Hi... No yeah... we were just trying
�
to phone about 15 minutes ago

237
00:18:21,268 --> 00:18:23,270
and you know the battery went dead...
� �

238
00:18:23,687 --> 00:18:25,981
well you know
� �
we were in the neighborhood so...

239
00:18:27,274 --> 00:18:29,485
OK. All right thank you...
�

240
00:18:35,866 --> 00:18:38,577
She said she may come down.
- Fine.

241
00:18:43,373 --> 00:18:44,458
How did she sound

242
00:18:45,542 --> 00:18:47,377
Brisk.
- Brisk

243
00:18:47,711 --> 00:18:49,421
Yeah she sounded pretty upset.
�

244
00:18:49,838 --> 00:18:51,548
She wanted me to know she went to Yale.

245
00:18:51,965 --> 00:18:54,510
She said that
- No she said almost nothing.
�

246
00:18:56,929 --> 00:18:58,305
She did go to Yale.

247
00:18:58,639 --> 00:19:01,475
On a Fulbright scholarship
right after the wall came down.

248
00:19:02,518 --> 00:19:04,812
Straight out of East Berlin
to Manhattan via Yale.

249
00:19:05,145 --> 00:19:06,814
There you have it in a nutshell.

250
00:19:08,398 --> 00:19:09,441
So she�s German
�

251
00:19:09,775 --> 00:19:12,653
Yeah but I met her in New York.
�
- And you never saw her again

252
00:19:12,986 --> 00:19:14,988
No. But I looked for her.

253
00:19:15,322 --> 00:19:16,406
You looked for her

254
00:19:16,740 --> 00:19:19,284
Yes but I didn�t even know
�
if she was still living in New York.

255
00:19:19,618 --> 00:19:22,788
How could I find her
�
her name having changed and everything.

256
00:19:23,872 --> 00:19:25,541
Then I saw Walter.

257
00:19:26,208 --> 00:19:28,210
He knew us when we were together.

258
00:19:30,546 --> 00:19:32,464
Being in the city
�

259
00:19:34,758 --> 00:19:37,845
every street corner reminds me of her.

260
00:19:38,554 --> 00:19:39,805
It�s important.

261
00:19:41,557 --> 00:19:44,351
We didn�t show up well in the end
�
neither one of us.

262
00:19:44,685 --> 00:19:46,061
So she�s the one from the book

263
00:19:47,563 --> 00:19:50,190
No the book is a novel.
�

264
00:20:04,246 --> 00:20:05,581
Surprise surprise
�

265
00:20:08,417 --> 00:20:09,585
Hello.
- Hi.

266
00:20:13,422 --> 00:20:15,841
You look exactly as I imagined.

267
00:20:23,140 --> 00:20:25,726
How did you find me
- Walter gave me your number.

268
00:20:26,059 --> 00:20:28,604
Walter So you still see him

269
00:20:28,937 --> 00:20:31,565
Last night I...
one of those coincidences.

270
00:20:32,274 --> 00:20:34,318
I haven�t seen him
for at least 10 years. How is he

271
00:20:35,277 --> 00:20:37,946
You haven�t
How come he has your number

272
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:39,615
You know how he is.

273
00:20:43,327 --> 00:20:44,786
Mrs. Epstein.

274
00:20:45,662 --> 00:20:46,997
You�re married.

275
00:20:52,544 --> 00:20:55,005
It�s the perfect name for a lawyer
�
especially in New York.

276
00:20:57,382 --> 00:21:00,719
So you really didn�t change.
Still the same old racist.

277
00:21:01,470 --> 00:21:02,930
I... I...I was never racist

278
00:21:03,889 --> 00:21:05,307
Let�s not argue.

279
00:21:08,602 --> 00:21:11,480
We wanted to invite you to the tonight
�
at the Public.

280
00:21:12,648 --> 00:21:14,024
You�Il be on the guest list.

281
00:21:15,525 --> 00:21:17,027
Your old place Max.
�

282
00:21:18,987 --> 00:21:20,113
Will you come

283
00:21:21,490 --> 00:21:23,116
Can we meet

284
00:21:28,997 --> 00:21:30,749
Would be a mistake if we didn�t.

285
00:21:34,461 --> 00:21:36,004
We would regret it.

286
00:21:39,675 --> 00:21:40,884
I have to check my schedule.

287
00:21:41,677 --> 00:21:44,846
I�m working on a very difficult case
right now. I have to work late.

288
00:21:45,514 --> 00:21:47,975
If it were any other time...
this is all a bit sudden.

289
00:21:53,021 --> 00:21:54,189
Wait...

290
00:21:54,523 --> 00:21:56,441
did you have another copy of the book

291
00:21:58,777 --> 00:21:59,820
Here...

292
00:22:01,154 --> 00:22:02,197
And...

293
00:22:02,906 --> 00:22:05,826
Yeah...This is my card.
And I wrote Mr. Zorn�s number on it.

294
00:22:25,637 --> 00:22:28,140
It�s her address.
Mr. Walter wanted you to have it.

295
00:22:28,807 --> 00:22:32,394
He said he was breaking
all of his rules whatever they are.
�

296
00:22:33,603 --> 00:22:35,147
It was just for you he said.
�

297
00:22:41,028 --> 00:22:42,154
Is Clara your first wife

298
00:22:43,613 --> 00:22:46,408
Oh no no no no... we�re not married.
� � � �

299
00:22:49,536 --> 00:22:51,038
There have been others

300
00:22:51,413 --> 00:22:53,457
I mean you�ve been not married
a few times

301
00:22:59,212 --> 00:23:01,339
The nearly wives.
The ones that got away

302
00:23:02,507 --> 00:23:03,842
Was Mrs. Epstein one of them

303
00:23:04,843 --> 00:23:06,386
She might see it that way.

304
00:23:09,723 --> 00:23:12,976
Children
- A daughter not Clara�s.
�

305
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,773
Clara�s been checking
every detail with your publisher.

306
00:23:18,565 --> 00:23:20,233
She�s putting her soul into this.

307
00:23:20,984 --> 00:23:24,029
The cover the entire campaign...
�
she begged everybody for a blurb.

308
00:23:24,362 --> 00:23:26,031
She went to the hotel to see
if it was OK
�

309
00:23:26,364 --> 00:23:27,824
working like a dog on her internship
�

310
00:23:28,158 --> 00:23:29,534
without pay.

311
00:23:29,868 --> 00:23:31,995
I know. I cannot do without her.

312
00:23:36,625 --> 00:23:38,335
I think my jacket is a mistake.

313
00:23:39,127 --> 00:23:41,129
I know.
- So why did you bring it

314
00:23:41,505 --> 00:23:43,298
I don�t look like a writer.

315
00:23:43,632 --> 00:23:45,300
Nobody wants to look like a writer.

316
00:23:46,301 --> 00:23:47,385
Do you want to look like one

317
00:23:47,719 --> 00:23:50,806
Yeah I do.
�
No no I don�t. But...
� �

318
00:23:52,933 --> 00:23:54,935
Do I look like a European
antique dealer

319
00:23:55,268 --> 00:23:58,980
Well like a European antique dealer
�
on a bad day for European antiques.

320
00:23:59,731 --> 00:24:00,941
Thank you.

321
00:24:01,566 --> 00:24:02,651
You're welcome.

322
00:24:05,445 --> 00:24:07,197
Oh wow Look at you
�

323
00:24:08,615 --> 00:24:10,951
Think it�s all right
- Absolutely.

324
00:24:12,953 --> 00:24:14,621
We have a car tonight.

325
00:24:15,163 --> 00:24:16,373
It�s your big night.

326
00:24:22,129 --> 00:24:23,421
How are you
- Very good.

327
00:24:23,755 --> 00:24:25,966
It�s a packed house.
- Yeah

328
00:24:27,008 --> 00:24:28,009
Oh look who�s here
�

329
00:24:29,344 --> 00:24:31,346
How is...
- You are very welcome. Come in.

330
00:24:31,847 --> 00:24:33,515
There are a lot of people here already.

331
00:24:34,015 --> 00:24:37,769
Remember this is the smartest audience
�
you�re ever going to get.

332
00:24:38,645 --> 00:24:42,023
When my father spoke about what matters
and what does not matter
�

333
00:24:42,399 --> 00:24:44,025
an image came to me
�

334
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:45,777
an image of two women.

335
00:24:46,444 --> 00:24:48,613
One whom I caused harm...

336
00:24:49,948 --> 00:24:53,368
The other who I should be with now
if I�d been wiser then
�

337
00:24:54,244 --> 00:24:55,287
whom I wonder about still
�

338
00:24:56,705 --> 00:24:58,373
I met in New York.

339
00:25:01,751 --> 00:25:04,421
It was a few years
after the wall had come down

340
00:25:04,754 --> 00:25:07,632
and I was happy to get away
from all the agitation of Berlin.

341
00:25:07,966 --> 00:25:10,051
My novel got me a fellowship

342
00:25:10,385 --> 00:25:13,847
and I had a tiny office
at the Public Library.

343
00:25:14,973 --> 00:25:17,434
Yes here upstairs on the 4th floor.
� �

344
00:25:19,019 --> 00:25:21,396
I first met her at an art opening
�

345
00:25:22,189 --> 00:25:25,650
or rather outside an art opening
since there were too many people inside.

346
00:25:26,610 --> 00:25:30,030
My friend from the library
with whom I�d come was a smoker
�

347
00:25:30,363 --> 00:25:32,032
so I was standing outside with him.

348
00:25:32,866 --> 00:25:34,367
We watched her arrive
�

349
00:25:35,076 --> 00:25:38,914
we studied her as she saw the crowds
and decided to step back
�

350
00:25:40,165 --> 00:25:42,209
then she turned and smiled at my friend.

351
00:25:43,293 --> 00:25:45,879
She barely looked at me
as she shook my hand.

352
00:25:47,297 --> 00:25:50,550
The following Sunday
�
I watched her a second time

353
00:25:50,884 --> 00:25:53,678
as she arrived at the Alice Tully Hall
�
alone

354
00:25:54,012 --> 00:25:55,722
for the 5 o�clock concert.

355
00:25:59,267 --> 00:26:01,645
I was alone too already in my seat.
�

356
00:26:05,857 --> 00:26:08,860
As she took her seat
�
she looked at me for a brief second
�

357
00:26:09,486 --> 00:26:10,695
but she did not say anything

358
00:26:11,029 --> 00:26:13,615
and I believed
that she did not recognize me.

359
00:26:17,953 --> 00:26:19,204
I liked her.

360
00:26:24,668 --> 00:26:29,214
But before the concert began
she turned and said
�

361
00:26:29,547 --> 00:26:32,133
�You are at the library� and smiled.

362
00:26:33,176 --> 00:26:35,679
�It�s one of the great places�
�
she added.

363
00:26:38,265 --> 00:26:39,975
As the music played
�

364
00:26:41,184 --> 00:26:43,812
I felt a loneliness that was new to me.

365
00:26:45,313 --> 00:26:47,774
I did not want her to leave
at the end of the concert
�

366
00:26:48,108 --> 00:26:50,819
but there was nothing
I could think to say to her
�

367
00:26:51,319 --> 00:26:53,613
so I walked ahead of her
towards the exit

368
00:26:54,030 --> 00:26:55,991
as though I had somewhere to go.

369
00:26:57,325 --> 00:26:58,827
That is how it began.

370
00:26:59,536 --> 00:27:00,829
We soon met again.

371
00:27:01,329 --> 00:27:04,332
We spent many nights together
and whole weekends

372
00:27:04,833 --> 00:27:06,668
and we went out to the country

373
00:27:07,168 --> 00:27:09,045
where the sky was grey and low

374
00:27:09,629 --> 00:27:12,465
and the wind was icy
and the roads deserted.

375
00:27:13,133 --> 00:27:15,135
Maybe that was the best time we had
�

376
00:27:15,802 --> 00:27:17,887
the closest we ever got to each other.

377
00:27:19,556 --> 00:27:21,141
I�m trying not to say

378
00:27:21,933 --> 00:27:24,394
that I loved her more
than I�ve ever loved anyone
�

379
00:27:25,145 --> 00:27:26,354
or ever will.

380
00:27:27,188 --> 00:27:28,231
Words are banal.

381
00:27:28,565 --> 00:27:30,942
They belong to songs and sentimentality.

382
00:27:32,027 --> 00:27:33,361
But what else can I say

383
00:27:34,446 --> 00:27:36,531
Are there other words that I can use

384
00:27:38,658 --> 00:27:41,119
Perhaps there�s a need for me to add
that she was

385
00:27:41,745 --> 00:27:44,497
beautiful and original
as well as distant

386
00:27:46,291 --> 00:27:47,375
and intriguing.

387
00:27:49,252 --> 00:27:52,839
I�m not sure these words either
or any other words can help me now.

388
00:27:54,507 --> 00:27:56,343
Now that the time has passed.

389
00:27:57,969 --> 00:27:59,929
She was the great chance I had.

390
00:28:00,597 --> 00:28:02,098
The chance I lost.

391
00:28:03,767 --> 00:28:05,310
The one who mattered.

392
00:28:08,229 --> 00:28:10,607
Over the years
�
she became one of my ghosts
�

393
00:28:11,608 --> 00:28:15,195
until one day I started to think
that I might go to New York again

394
00:28:15,862 --> 00:28:18,698
when a book of mine came out
from a publisher there
�

395
00:28:19,741 --> 00:28:21,618
and see the city again

396
00:28:22,202 --> 00:28:24,162
and maybe run into her

397
00:28:25,246 --> 00:28:28,875
and pretend
that the past does not matter.

398
00:28:31,252 --> 00:28:32,462
And here I am.

399
00:28:41,930 --> 00:28:43,098
Thank you.

400
00:28:49,229 --> 00:28:51,481
Maybe in his next book it will be you.

401
00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:56,778
I hope not.

402
00:28:57,529 --> 00:28:58,947
Could you please sign my book

403
00:29:23,096 --> 00:29:26,641
It makes a difference if the Hungarians
are actually from Hungary doesn�t it
�

404
00:29:26,975 --> 00:29:28,768
Brought up there in that culture.

405
00:29:29,394 --> 00:29:30,437
I mean those haircuts.
�

406
00:29:30,937 --> 00:29:34,065
I liked the second violinist
�
but I like them all.

407
00:29:34,399 --> 00:29:36,776
Dedicated. They are dedicated musicians.

408
00:29:37,110 --> 00:29:38,528
My first boyfriend was Hungarian.

409
00:29:38,862 --> 00:29:42,782
I mean not real brought up in Hungary
�
Hungarian. His parents came here in �56.

410
00:29:43,116 --> 00:29:44,451
He got in touch with me recently.

411
00:29:44,784 --> 00:29:47,704
He has this big Hungarian laugh.
I mean it beats...

412
00:29:48,288 --> 00:29:51,749
So did you meet him
�
- Wait. He looks really nice now.

413
00:29:52,208 --> 00:29:54,961
He�s thoughtful and skinny now
�
like a Columbia professor.

414
00:29:55,295 --> 00:29:57,547
So you met him.
- Yeah I met him

415
00:29:58,089 --> 00:30:00,175
I mean we even...
�

416
00:30:01,718 --> 00:30:04,596
You what
- Yeah we did
�

417
00:30:05,430 --> 00:30:07,640
It was nice. It was sweet.

418
00:30:07,974 --> 00:30:10,059
I mean that�s what New York is for.

419
00:30:10,435 --> 00:30:11,936
That is why my rent is so high.

420
00:30:12,270 --> 00:30:15,106
In other places people fade away
�
but here they always come back.

421
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:17,942
Speaking of old friends coming back
�
I got a call from someone

422
00:30:18,276 --> 00:30:19,903
I haven�t seen in ages.

423
00:30:20,236 --> 00:30:21,529
Where�s he been hiding

424
00:30:21,863 --> 00:30:23,615
Last time I heard of him
he was in Berlin.

425
00:30:23,948 --> 00:30:25,158
Oh no not German.
�

426
00:30:25,492 --> 00:30:27,327
I don�t do Germans. I never have.

427
00:30:27,660 --> 00:30:29,746
Not that any opportunity
has ever come my way.

428
00:30:30,079 --> 00:30:31,164
I don�t blame you.

429
00:30:33,500 --> 00:30:35,668
I meet him the first time...

430
00:30:36,878 --> 00:30:38,379
no the second time
�

431
00:30:38,713 --> 00:30:40,548
in that hall we were in tonight.

432
00:30:41,299 --> 00:30:42,509
He�s a writer.

433
00:30:42,842 --> 00:30:45,053
He has a reading
at the Public Library tonight.

434
00:30:45,428 --> 00:30:47,096
That�s why we went to the concert.

435
00:30:47,430 --> 00:30:49,432
He has a reading
and we went to the concert

436
00:30:53,228 --> 00:30:54,562
Is he the one...

437
00:30:57,065 --> 00:30:58,816
It was a long time ago

438
00:31:00,026 --> 00:31:04,072
and I never really got over it.
I know other people do. I didn�t.
�

439
00:31:04,697 --> 00:31:07,116
No one ever gets over anything.

440
00:31:12,455 --> 00:31:13,831
Shall we get one
- Yeah.

441
00:31:15,750 --> 00:31:18,211
Hi Mr. Zorn. Please for Bill.
� �

442
00:31:18,836 --> 00:31:20,380
What a fabulous novel it is too sir.
�

443
00:31:21,965 --> 00:31:22,966
Thank you sir very much.
�

444
00:31:24,342 --> 00:31:25,468
Hello.
- Hello.

445
00:31:30,557 --> 00:31:31,599
Let me see.

446
00:31:32,684 --> 00:31:34,978
I really loved the reading.
- Thank you.

447
00:32:03,923 --> 00:32:06,634
All these guys
want to be David Foster Wallace.

448
00:32:06,968 --> 00:32:09,012
Every one of them. Literally.

449
00:32:09,929 --> 00:32:11,514
So you mean they�d prefer to be dead

450
00:32:11,848 --> 00:32:15,018
If it meant fame then sure of course.
�
Why not

451
00:32:15,351 --> 00:32:18,563
Maybe they�d prefer to be Don DeLillo.
- Hey What are you guys drinking

452
00:32:18,896 --> 00:32:21,149
This is Sex on the Beach
with an extra twist.

453
00:32:21,524 --> 00:32:24,027
Of what
- Of moaning.

454
00:32:34,829 --> 00:32:36,039
Are you happy
- Hey yes.
�

455
00:32:38,916 --> 00:32:40,793
Please join me in raising my glass

456
00:32:41,127 --> 00:32:44,839
to someone
whom I not only consider to be a genius
�

457
00:32:45,673 --> 00:32:47,425
but also my friend.

458
00:32:47,842 --> 00:32:49,427
To Max Zorn.

459
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:54,515
Thank you thank you...
�

460
00:32:56,184 --> 00:32:58,686
Good job Max.
�
- Thank you.

461
00:33:00,188 --> 00:33:02,523
I�m not sure about your choices though.

462
00:33:03,775 --> 00:33:05,485
Yeah
- Yeah.

463
00:33:06,653 --> 00:33:08,821
Maybe a bit more tact.

464
00:33:11,032 --> 00:33:12,784
Tact is boring.

465
00:33:16,954 --> 00:33:18,665
Hey up there Up there Look

466
00:33:19,666 --> 00:33:21,793
There�s nothing up there
- Look over there...

467
00:33:22,126 --> 00:33:23,586
Somebody try this one here.

468
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:25,838
That�s all it is...

469
00:33:26,172 --> 00:33:28,091
Is it the right street

470
00:33:29,467 --> 00:33:31,135
Follow the perfume.

471
00:33:32,178 --> 00:33:33,096
Wait...

472
00:33:54,826 --> 00:33:55,868
Henry James once said
�

473
00:33:56,202 --> 00:33:58,496
it is time to start living
the life you imagine
�

474
00:33:58,830 --> 00:34:02,291
but I say it is time
we started living the life we deserve

475
00:34:32,822 --> 00:34:35,158
Roderick what�s his name
�
what he�s doing

476
00:34:35,742 --> 00:34:36,951
He does what you all do
�

477
00:34:37,285 --> 00:34:39,370
he makes up stories
and thinks about girls.

478
00:34:42,749 --> 00:34:45,209
Is he good
- He thinks his stories are good.

479
00:34:45,710 --> 00:34:47,253
He�s probably wrong about that.

480
00:34:48,087 --> 00:34:49,380
He�s not wrong
about the girls.

481
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:53,968
Have you known him for long

482
00:34:54,302 --> 00:34:56,262
I�ve done publicity
for a few of his books.

483
00:34:56,679 --> 00:34:59,015
I like him and he�s respected.
- Oh yeah

484
00:34:59,599 --> 00:35:02,226
Stop it He�s working with Clara.
He�s doing a great job.

485
00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:05,021
Yeah they�re both doing a great job.
�

486
00:35:05,813 --> 00:35:09,525
Hey stop it. Address further inquiries
�
to Shakespeare and Shakespeare.

487
00:35:09,859 --> 00:35:12,987
This call may be monitored
for quality and training purposes.

488
00:35:48,189 --> 00:35:49,273
Taxi

489
00:36:14,340 --> 00:36:16,634
Is that him Your philosopher

490
00:36:17,093 --> 00:36:18,386
He�s not a philosopher.

491
00:36:20,221 --> 00:36:23,140
It�s 11.45.
It�s 15 minutes past my bedtime.

492
00:36:23,683 --> 00:36:24,725
Let me inspect him.

493
00:36:26,102 --> 00:36:27,603
Don�t be nervous.

494
00:36:28,563 --> 00:36:31,566
I don�t know who he is anymore.
- We�re about to find out.

495
00:36:31,899 --> 00:36:34,110
What for I don�t know...

496
00:36:34,986 --> 00:36:36,112
I know this makes no sense.

497
00:36:38,990 --> 00:36:41,325
I really don�t want him
calling round like this.

498
00:36:41,742 --> 00:36:43,369
I can guess who gave him the address.

499
00:36:43,703 --> 00:36:46,747
To hell with it. Let me check him out.

500
00:36:59,927 --> 00:37:02,388
You had a reading. How did it go

501
00:37:03,139 --> 00:37:06,183
This is Rachel my best friend
�
and cat keeper.

502
00:37:07,476 --> 00:37:08,519
Hi.

503
00:37:08,978 --> 00:37:12,815
She does other things too.
I mean in fact she runs the country.
�

504
00:37:16,193 --> 00:37:18,613
Rachel stop staring
�

505
00:37:19,530 --> 00:37:21,574
Would you like a drink
- Yeah
�

506
00:37:22,366 --> 00:37:24,952
or maybe I shouldn�t... just coffee
�
that�s fine.

507
00:37:25,328 --> 00:37:26,787
I can make you coffee.

508
00:37:28,372 --> 00:37:30,833
I can also help you
to stop gaping at everything.

509
00:37:31,584 --> 00:37:33,294
How are you going to do that

510
00:37:34,754 --> 00:37:36,297
By calling for help against a stalker.

511
00:37:37,632 --> 00:37:40,468
I can make some coffee.
You show him around Becky.
�

512
00:37:50,728 --> 00:37:51,646
Is this your place

513
00:37:53,272 --> 00:37:56,025
No I just come here
�
to do the cleaning at night.

514
00:37:56,651 --> 00:37:57,902
Seriously

515
00:37:59,195 --> 00:38:01,155
You were never serious when I knew you.

516
00:38:04,700 --> 00:38:06,327
Deep inside I�m serious.

517
00:38:07,244 --> 00:38:10,331
I�m glad I never knew that side of you
�
the one that�s �deep inside�.

518
00:38:10,665 --> 00:38:12,750
I�m glad you kept that to yourself.

519
00:38:14,627 --> 00:38:16,212
Did you buy this place

520
00:38:17,463 --> 00:38:19,006
Yes. How did you think I got it

521
00:38:20,257 --> 00:38:22,301
With money you made
- Money I made.

522
00:38:24,720 --> 00:38:26,138
What sort of law do you do

523
00:38:27,223 --> 00:38:29,767
I worked for the District Attorney
as a prosecutor.

524
00:38:30,351 --> 00:38:33,521
And then I got hired by a law firm
and moved over to the other side.

525
00:38:34,313 --> 00:38:37,358
Then I got hired by another law firm
�
bigger and better.

526
00:38:38,109 --> 00:38:40,194
If you want to stay out of jail
and have a lot of money
�

527
00:38:40,528 --> 00:38:43,155
at some stage of the game
you spend time in my office.

528
00:38:44,782 --> 00:38:47,034
O.J. Strauss-Kahn cases like that
� �

529
00:38:47,827 --> 00:38:50,121
I didn�t do them.
- But you could have

530
00:38:50,454 --> 00:38:54,083
It�s more about finance mergers
�
insider trading stuff like that.
�

531
00:38:54,875 --> 00:38:55,793
Madoff.

532
00:38:57,378 --> 00:38:59,255
I don�t discuss clients with strangers.

533
00:39:00,589 --> 00:39:01,841
But you understand all that

534
00:39:05,511 --> 00:39:08,764
No if I were in trouble I�d hire you.
�

535
00:39:10,599 --> 00:39:12,351
You couldn�t afford me.

536
00:39:16,063 --> 00:39:17,106
You put on weight.

537
00:39:17,982 --> 00:39:20,067
I told the cats you�d be thinner.

538
00:39:22,319 --> 00:39:24,405
Is that why they�re staring so at me

539
00:39:24,739 --> 00:39:25,781
No.

540
00:39:26,407 --> 00:39:29,618
They don�t like me having
unannounced gentlemen callers at night

541
00:39:38,419 --> 00:39:39,336
Now I get you.

542
00:39:40,546 --> 00:39:44,050
I would go to Syracuse with him
or Boulder Colorado.

543
00:39:44,425 --> 00:39:46,635
I would go to the armpit
of the universe.

544
00:39:46,969 --> 00:39:49,472
I mean he is...
- Sweet and smart. Yeah. - Yeah.

545
00:39:50,347 --> 00:39:52,391
But the nerve to come here at night.

546
00:39:52,725 --> 00:39:54,769
Now don�t stare at him.
- I don�t stare...

547
00:39:55,102 --> 00:39:56,604
What are you two talking about

548
00:39:58,564 --> 00:40:02,276
I was expecting a big piece
of Wiener Schnitzel to appear

549
00:40:02,610 --> 00:40:04,779
and I am merely expressing my surprise.

550
00:40:06,489 --> 00:40:07,823
Sugar
- No thanks.

551
00:40:08,157 --> 00:40:09,909
We should all go home and go to bed now.

552
00:40:11,368 --> 00:40:15,456
I�m sure the jetlag caused him to feel
he could come round here this late.

553
00:40:17,291 --> 00:40:19,085
No I�m the one splitting.
�

554
00:40:32,932 --> 00:40:33,891
Nightie night.

555
00:40:34,642 --> 00:40:38,104
Max is staying at the Algonquin.
Would you offer him a ride

556
00:40:40,064 --> 00:40:41,107
Sure.

557
00:40:44,693 --> 00:40:47,279
Thanks.
- The pleasure is all mine.

558
00:40:55,871 --> 00:40:56,872
Let me ask you something.

559
00:40:58,082 --> 00:40:59,458
Is Rebecca alone

560
00:41:00,376 --> 00:41:03,337
I mean how does she live
Is there someone she...

561
00:41:04,171 --> 00:41:05,756
Maybe you should ask her.

562
00:41:07,258 --> 00:41:08,759
I�m asking you.

563
00:41:09,718 --> 00:41:11,137
And what about you

564
00:41:16,475 --> 00:41:19,478
I�m sure she was happy to see you.
Does that answer your question

565
00:41:22,273 --> 00:41:24,108
Thanks John.
�
- You�re welcome madam.
�

566
00:41:26,944 --> 00:41:30,781
I hope you don�t mind
but I think I�d rather walk.

567
00:41:31,115 --> 00:41:32,408
Do I scare you that much

568
00:41:32,741 --> 00:41:36,036
I don�t scare that easy
but I really need it.

569
00:41:36,871 --> 00:41:38,205
The walk the air you know.
� �

570
00:41:39,582 --> 00:41:40,708
Jet lag.

571
00:41:41,250 --> 00:41:42,710
Rebecca�s always right.

572
00:42:25,336 --> 00:42:26,462
Good morning
- Morning.

573
00:42:26,795 --> 00:42:28,297
We almost called the FBI.

574
00:42:29,006 --> 00:42:30,591
Why do you always vanish

575
00:42:32,426 --> 00:42:34,511
I took a walk I got lost and then
�

576
00:42:34,845 --> 00:42:36,931
finally I took a cab back to the hotel.

577
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:40,809
We were there until 4 dancing.

578
00:42:41,185 --> 00:42:44,813
Then we went to that other place which
was full of Bulgarians crazy dancing
� �

579
00:42:45,314 --> 00:42:46,440
polka and vodka.

580
00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:54,365
What are you thinking

581
00:42:55,115 --> 00:42:56,075
I am not thinking.

582
00:42:57,451 --> 00:42:59,411
Yes you are. I can hear it.
�

583
00:43:02,206 --> 00:43:05,751
I�m thinking that my wife thinks that
some undereducated American proof-reader

584
00:43:06,210 --> 00:43:07,753
is a fucking guru

585
00:43:08,629 --> 00:43:11,006
and I can smell his idiocy from her

586
00:43:11,340 --> 00:43:12,925
when she comes into the room.

587
00:43:17,429 --> 00:43:20,057
And I missed you
when I got back last night.

588
00:43:21,684 --> 00:43:22,935
I�m here now.

589
00:43:23,644 --> 00:43:26,230
You�re here. That�s what matters.

590
00:43:46,709 --> 00:43:48,460
Listen to this.

591
00:43:52,089 --> 00:43:55,092
Lindsey, this is Rebecca Epstein
with a message for Mr. Zorn.

592
00:43:55,592 --> 00:43:59,388
I have time on Saturday. If he wants
to come, I have to drive somewhere

593
00:43:59,722 --> 00:44:01,265
on the far end of Long Island.

594
00:44:01,598 --> 00:44:03,517
Departure from my place at 11 a.m.

595
00:44:04,226 --> 00:44:06,061
We'll be back late afternoon.

596
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:09,398
If it's OK, no need to call back.
He knows the address.

597
00:44:12,985 --> 00:44:14,611
She picked Montauk.

598
00:44:15,571 --> 00:44:16,488
The place at the far end.

599
00:44:19,366 --> 00:44:21,785
You are free this weekend.
Shall I pencil in

600
00:44:24,038 --> 00:44:25,039
Why not

601
00:44:28,834 --> 00:44:30,294
So what�s up next
�

602
00:44:31,670 --> 00:44:33,255
Times. A brunch.

603
00:44:33,922 --> 00:44:36,258
And what�s this about Saturday
- Montauk.

604
00:44:38,260 --> 00:44:39,887
Montauk

605
00:44:41,889 --> 00:44:45,309
Yeah there�s this place
� �
it�s an arts center

606
00:44:45,934 --> 00:44:47,269
with people
he needs to meet.

607
00:44:47,603 --> 00:44:50,314
Oh come on Max please.
� �
Julia�s doing a party for us.

608
00:44:51,607 --> 00:44:53,025
I�Il be back in time.

609
00:45:01,909 --> 00:45:04,411
I don�t think I�ve told a lie
for an author or for anyone else

610
00:45:04,703 --> 00:45:06,330
since I started in my job.

611
00:45:07,831 --> 00:45:09,333
I�m sure she noticed.

612
00:45:10,834 --> 00:45:12,544
That�s the last lie I�m telling OK
�

613
00:45:13,295 --> 00:45:14,338
OK.

614
00:45:18,342 --> 00:45:20,302
And what will happen in Montauk

615
00:45:21,887 --> 00:45:23,055
I don�t know.

616
00:45:23,931 --> 00:45:25,557
And Clara doesn�t even know she exists.

617
00:45:26,225 --> 00:45:28,102
No she doesn�t. At least I hope so.

618
00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:29,603
Why

619
00:45:29,937 --> 00:45:32,064
Because I love Clara.
I don�t want to hurt her.

620
00:45:33,399 --> 00:45:34,691
I mean it makes no sense.

621
00:45:35,025 --> 00:45:38,404
Why do you want to see Rebecca
now that you have Clara

622
00:45:40,114 --> 00:45:41,615
I can�t explain it.

623
00:45:42,908 --> 00:45:45,702
I don�t want to have lost her
�
even though it was long ago.

624
00:45:46,036 --> 00:45:47,663
I do not want to have lost her.

625
00:45:54,378 --> 00:45:57,131
Even when I was in high school
�
if a guy did that...

626
00:45:57,673 --> 00:46:00,259
coming all the way from Europe
and then seeing someone else...

627
00:46:00,884 --> 00:46:03,846
You know what I would do
- What would you do

628
00:46:04,513 --> 00:46:05,889
I�d cut his balls off.

629
00:46:07,474 --> 00:46:08,517
Yeah.

630
00:46:11,437 --> 00:46:13,856
Don�t you have
any firm positions anymore

631
00:46:14,189 --> 00:46:16,191
Yes I do. But I�m...

632
00:46:17,192 --> 00:46:21,280
I�m not a tree. It has roots. It stands
in one place it has a position.
�

633
00:46:21,864 --> 00:46:24,491
I�m an animal.
I'm wild I move I change position.
� �

634
00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:26,243
I�m flexible.

635
00:46:28,036 --> 00:46:31,081
...still don�t change their way
of treating economy.

636
00:46:31,582 --> 00:46:36,753
Because the power is...
Financial power...

637
00:46:37,087 --> 00:46:39,465
Walter Are you following me

638
00:46:39,798 --> 00:46:43,510
No it's pure coincidence.
�
I lunch here almost every day.

639
00:46:44,178 --> 00:46:47,139
I really want you to come to my home.

640
00:46:47,556 --> 00:46:49,099
Bring your wife
- OK.

641
00:46:50,225 --> 00:46:51,852
I�m very lonely you know.
�

642
00:46:52,936 --> 00:46:54,521
You live alone
- Yes.

643
00:46:54,855 --> 00:46:57,566
New York is a city
that's conducive to solitude.

644
00:46:58,066 --> 00:47:00,611
At least that's how I conceived it.

645
00:47:01,862 --> 00:47:02,988
You designed the city

646
00:47:03,322 --> 00:47:04,781
Yes why not
�

647
00:47:05,407 --> 00:47:07,618
So it's a promise See you soon.
- OK.

648
00:47:10,037 --> 00:47:12,164
I have the painting for you.

649
00:47:13,540 --> 00:47:15,209
The Paul Klee

650
00:47:18,462 --> 00:47:21,215
I�m seeing Walter for lunch on Monday.
Monday.

651
00:47:21,548 --> 00:47:22,716
I�Il put it in the schedule.

652
00:47:23,050 --> 00:47:26,512
He wants you to come along as well
�
and Clara.

653
00:47:26,887 --> 00:47:30,224
Great. I can�t wait
to see his collection... of dead bodies.

654
00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:35,145
This jacket is completely wrong.

655
00:47:36,438 --> 00:47:38,565
You know it�s special.
�

656
00:47:42,653 --> 00:47:46,323
No Walter he introduced me to art
� �
and to literature.

657
00:47:46,698 --> 00:47:49,785
As a student
I admired him beyond reason.

658
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:52,079
I was intimidated.
I...

659
00:47:52,829 --> 00:47:54,289
I needed someone to watch over me.

660
00:47:54,665 --> 00:47:56,750
That�s Walter for you.
- Here we are.

661
00:48:00,254 --> 00:48:02,923
When I began to write
and publish my first things

662
00:48:03,257 --> 00:48:04,967
in newspapers
and even my first novel
�

663
00:48:05,300 --> 00:48:06,510
he dismissed it.

664
00:48:06,843 --> 00:48:08,303
He said �Anybody could do that�
�

665
00:48:08,637 --> 00:48:11,265
But in French.

666
00:48:12,599 --> 00:48:14,560
It�s not that she�s neglecting her kids
�

667
00:48:15,477 --> 00:48:17,896
it�s more that she�s so stressed
and in pain

668
00:48:18,355 --> 00:48:20,857
that she can�t really let them
into her life.

669
00:48:21,191 --> 00:48:23,068
The book is about his mother.

670
00:48:29,491 --> 00:48:31,535
You know I could put this up for you.
�

671
00:48:31,868 --> 00:48:32,911
Oh I don�t know.
�

672
00:48:33,245 --> 00:48:35,622
I was never the right shape for clothes.
- But you are...

673
00:48:36,248 --> 00:48:39,626
your shoulders are perfect Look at you

674
00:48:40,377 --> 00:48:42,045
Thank you. Well OK.
�

675
00:48:44,798 --> 00:48:45,841
May I

676
00:48:50,345 --> 00:48:51,388
Voil`a.

677
00:48:53,140 --> 00:48:57,769
Walter had a house in Tuscany and
at the end of summer a woman came.

678
00:48:58,145 --> 00:49:00,897
Since Walter didn�t sleep with her
it seemed natural that I would
�

679
00:49:01,231 --> 00:49:02,816
even though she was older than I.

680
00:49:07,362 --> 00:49:09,239
They break in all the time.

681
00:49:10,407 --> 00:49:12,284
They stole my flat screen.

682
00:49:15,746 --> 00:49:16,788
You have to put on the pants.

683
00:49:19,958 --> 00:49:21,918
How much rent do you pay for this

684
00:49:22,461 --> 00:49:24,296
Fifteen.
- Out of...

685
00:49:25,797 --> 00:49:27,382
You don�t want to know.

686
00:49:29,801 --> 00:49:32,763
After lunch one day Walter fell asleep.
�

687
00:49:33,889 --> 00:49:35,057
He looked like a lizard

688
00:49:35,390 --> 00:49:38,769
in repose with his mouth open
and his eyes closed.

689
00:49:39,269 --> 00:49:40,771
She looked at him

690
00:49:41,146 --> 00:49:43,482
and then she looked at me like a child
�

691
00:49:43,857 --> 00:49:46,109
moving towards something sweet
and forbidden.

692
00:49:46,693 --> 00:49:49,696
I believe even when she removed
his wallet from his inside pocket
�

693
00:49:50,030 --> 00:49:52,282
and looked at me again
�
her face full of mischief
�

694
00:49:52,699 --> 00:49:55,160
she had no idea what we would be doing
�

695
00:49:55,619 --> 00:49:59,373
and smiled at me again
as if she�d done something brave

696
00:49:59,748 --> 00:50:01,500
as she handed me the credit cards.

697
00:50:02,167 --> 00:50:04,169
Then she put her finger to her lips
and...

698
00:50:08,715 --> 00:50:10,884
We stole out of that house with nothing.

699
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:14,012
No luggage no guilt either.
�

700
00:50:14,638 --> 00:50:18,141
Only at the railway station as I
�
had to queue for an overnight sleeper
�

701
00:50:18,475 --> 00:50:19,935
did I worry about getting caught.

702
00:50:20,519 --> 00:50:24,481
But the thought of fucking her as
the train crossed the Apennine mountains

703
00:50:24,815 --> 00:50:27,275
and then fucking her again in daylight
on the way to Venice

704
00:50:27,609 --> 00:50:31,154
with the blinds open
and the peasants working outside

705
00:50:31,530 --> 00:50:35,033
and then fucking her again in Venice
with the water lapping outside
�

706
00:50:35,367 --> 00:50:37,494
it removed all thoughts
of guilt or fear.

707
00:50:37,911 --> 00:50:39,413
You could have gone to jail.

708
00:50:41,707 --> 00:50:44,376
Lindsey
�
this may just be a story I made up.

709
00:50:45,293 --> 00:50:46,962
Never believe anything writers tell you.

710
00:50:48,630 --> 00:50:52,509
Fucking her on the train with the blinds
open you couldn�t have made that up.
�

711
00:51:01,476 --> 00:51:04,187
It�s a nice place in Brooklyn
and we planned it so you would be there.

712
00:51:06,398 --> 00:51:08,817
When are you coming back
- In time for the party I hope.
�

713
00:51:09,151 --> 00:51:12,320
It�s just a panel... talk talk talk...
� �

714
00:51:14,990 --> 00:51:17,200
When are you leaving
- I don�t know.

715
00:51:18,076 --> 00:51:19,035
I have to call Lindsey.

716
00:51:20,078 --> 00:51:21,997
She�s a busy girl Lindsey.
�

717
00:51:23,665 --> 00:51:25,792
I don�t know
how she puts up with all you guys.

718
00:51:30,797 --> 00:51:31,715
Just don�t be too late.

719
00:51:32,340 --> 00:51:33,842
Ciao.
- Ciao.

720
00:52:07,083 --> 00:52:09,419
They know I�m going
�
I told them earlier.

721
00:52:09,961 --> 00:52:13,590
I snuck my bag down to the car but they
�
spotted me and suspected something.

722
00:52:14,508 --> 00:52:16,635
So I came clean and I told them.

723
00:52:16,968 --> 00:52:18,220
What are they called

724
00:52:18,929 --> 00:52:20,472
Crosby Stills and Nash.
�

725
00:52:20,847 --> 00:52:22,015
Oh the band
�

726
00:52:22,390 --> 00:52:24,059
Wasn�t there a 4th member

727
00:52:24,392 --> 00:52:25,685
Who�s a clever boy

728
00:52:27,604 --> 00:52:30,065
What happens if one of them dies
It won�t be the same.

729
00:52:31,608 --> 00:52:33,443
One of them won�t die.

730
00:52:33,860 --> 00:52:34,986
I forgot
�

731
00:52:35,570 --> 00:52:36,947
it�s America

732
00:52:37,656 --> 00:52:39,908
Well they do look like
�
a bad rock band all right.

733
00:52:54,506 --> 00:52:56,800
This scent your perfume
� �
I can�t trace it.

734
00:52:58,426 --> 00:53:00,554
I don�t wear perfume.
It must be the soap.

735
00:53:01,221 --> 00:53:02,138
What soap is it

736
00:53:03,265 --> 00:53:05,183
It has no name.
I have it specially made.

737
00:53:06,434 --> 00:53:07,477
What

738
00:53:09,396 --> 00:53:10,605
Yeah you heard me.
�

739
00:53:11,273 --> 00:53:15,193
It�s a little lesbian lady and another
little lesbian lady in Connecticut.

740
00:53:15,527 --> 00:53:18,029
You talk to them
and they tell you what soap you are.

741
00:53:19,072 --> 00:53:20,240
You are

742
00:53:20,574 --> 00:53:22,450
Yeah you are.
�

743
00:53:24,578 --> 00:53:25,662
Voil`a.

744
00:53:26,496 --> 00:53:29,291
How did that happen How did they know
we were coming out now

745
00:53:29,749 --> 00:53:31,793
I guess they guessed. What do you think

746
00:53:32,127 --> 00:53:35,046
I think a lesbian little old lady
in Connecticut called them.

747
00:53:35,380 --> 00:53:37,674
Very smart. You must be a writer.
Are you Max
�

748
00:53:38,091 --> 00:53:41,011
Yes I am.
�
- I thought so. Thank you John.
�

749
00:53:41,761 --> 00:53:43,722
I just have to pick up a few things.

750
00:53:59,321 --> 00:54:00,447
Thank you.

751
00:54:00,780 --> 00:54:03,783
I�d love to be your valet.
- That would be great.

752
00:54:08,288 --> 00:54:10,165
I can�t believe we�re doing this.

753
00:54:11,374 --> 00:54:12,542
Look at what you�re wearing

754
00:54:13,710 --> 00:54:15,879
It�s OK It�s a bit wrinkled.

755
00:54:16,463 --> 00:54:17,505
Very hip.

756
00:54:18,089 --> 00:54:20,050
I wouldn�t advise you
to wear it in court. - Why not

757
00:54:21,092 --> 00:54:24,220
The accused always has to wear
a good suit. - Even if he�s innocent

758
00:54:25,388 --> 00:54:27,557
They�re all innocent
until the law decides otherwise.

759
00:54:29,976 --> 00:54:31,394
Any more errands
- Nope.

760
00:55:00,882 --> 00:55:02,592
Have you ever been there since
- Where

761
00:55:02,968 --> 00:55:04,052
Montauk.

762
00:55:05,303 --> 00:55:06,346
Why

763
00:55:06,680 --> 00:55:08,431
Well that�s where we�re going isn�t it
�

764
00:55:11,017 --> 00:55:13,353
Come on
�
you said the far end of the island.

765
00:55:17,190 --> 00:55:20,026
Does the cat minder sleep
in the apartment when you�re away - No.

766
00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:24,030
I�m just trying to piece it all together
your... know how you live.
�

767
00:55:24,823 --> 00:55:26,741
Relax put on music.
�

768
00:55:29,995 --> 00:55:33,248
Where is the music
- You used to know cars.

769
00:55:34,666 --> 00:55:36,334
Well I�m a poor writer. Less than poor.

770
00:55:36,710 --> 00:55:38,169
I don�t have a car anymore.

771
00:55:38,545 --> 00:55:39,629
This I don�t believe.

772
00:55:39,921 --> 00:55:41,089
No it�s true.

773
00:55:41,673 --> 00:55:44,384
I�m broke. Broke for now.

774
00:55:46,553 --> 00:55:49,681
I don't read much. When I am writing,
I find reading a distraction.

775
00:55:50,015 --> 00:55:51,307
I lock myself in a room.

776
00:55:51,641 --> 00:55:54,894
I don't need other authors. And then,
in the evening I listen to jazz maybe...

777
00:55:55,228 --> 00:55:57,313
Might be better if he didn�t talk.
- Yeah.

778
00:55:58,898 --> 00:56:01,526
And in between writing your own books,
what do you read...

779
00:56:02,610 --> 00:56:05,238
I went to college with him.
- Really

780
00:56:05,613 --> 00:56:06,906
What was he like

781
00:56:07,824 --> 00:56:10,994
There were a lot of guys like him.
They bored me.

782
00:56:11,661 --> 00:56:12,996
They took you out on dates

783
00:56:13,329 --> 00:56:14,956
and talked about themselves

784
00:56:16,332 --> 00:56:20,503
and then told you it was your turn
�
you could talk about yourself now.

785
00:56:21,379 --> 00:56:24,966
They knew that if they didn�t let you
talk some you might not sleep with them.

786
00:56:25,925 --> 00:56:27,135
Did you sleep with them

787
00:56:27,802 --> 00:56:28,845
Sure.

788
00:56:30,889 --> 00:56:31,931
Did you sleep with that guy

789
00:56:32,474 --> 00:56:34,100
Did you sleep with the illiterate guy

790
00:56:34,434 --> 00:56:36,519
I think we fooled around a few times.

791
00:56:36,853 --> 00:56:40,190
because it pays a very little attention
to the way the world really works...

792
00:56:40,565 --> 00:56:43,318
I thought I was special
when you fooled around with me.

793
00:56:43,943 --> 00:56:45,570
I never fooled around with you.

794
00:56:45,904 --> 00:56:49,032
I was a very very angry
idealistic young person myself.

795
00:56:49,365 --> 00:56:51,034
So I know whereof I speak.

796
00:56:57,832 --> 00:56:59,292
At Budokan.

797
00:57:10,095 --> 00:57:11,137
I want you,

798
00:57:12,388 --> 00:57:13,431
I want you,

799
00:57:14,974 --> 00:57:18,019
I want you, so bad...

800
00:57:19,270 --> 00:57:21,898
I went through years
of needing to hear this song
�

801
00:57:22,607 --> 00:57:23,775
and needing not to hear it.

802
00:57:25,276 --> 00:57:29,906
We listened to it on the way
out there... and on the way back.

803
00:57:30,323 --> 00:57:31,866
I have total recall.

804
00:57:52,971 --> 00:57:54,597
Did you read what I wrote in the book
�

805
00:57:54,973 --> 00:57:56,474
about our time together

806
00:57:59,727 --> 00:58:01,104
I only leafed through it.

807
00:58:03,314 --> 00:58:04,774
Did you have a problem with it

808
00:58:05,650 --> 00:58:06,734
I was surprised.

809
00:58:08,736 --> 00:58:11,322
Maybe more surprised about
the parts you invented.

810
00:58:12,157 --> 00:58:13,783
I didn�t invent much.

811
00:58:30,008 --> 00:58:31,342
We�re almost there.

812
00:58:32,677 --> 00:58:34,387
This house I have to look at.

813
00:58:35,930 --> 00:58:38,099
It�s something I should have done
a few months ago.

814
00:58:38,850 --> 00:58:42,020
One of my colleagues is selling a house
if someone offered him the right price.

815
00:58:42,478 --> 00:58:45,773
I told him I�d look at it at the end of
the summer and then I changed my mind.

816
00:58:46,566 --> 00:58:48,151
Are you buying it for yourself

817
00:58:49,402 --> 00:58:51,112
My parents live in Dresden.

818
00:58:52,113 --> 00:58:54,908
They�re old
�
could come over and live here.

819
00:58:55,575 --> 00:58:57,952
But I haven�t mentioned it to them
�
it�s just an idea I had.

820
00:58:59,120 --> 00:59:00,705
I had a place once in Maine
�

821
00:59:01,998 --> 00:59:04,751
but I got just a few good weekends
out of it so I sold it.

822
00:59:05,210 --> 00:59:06,294
It�s funny
�

823
00:59:07,462 --> 00:59:11,382
I didn�t use it when I had it
and then I missed it when I sold it.

824
00:59:13,343 --> 00:59:14,469
Do you visit your parents

825
00:59:15,345 --> 00:59:18,181
I did a few times.
Then I decided never to go back there.

826
00:59:19,682 --> 00:59:20,725
What happened

827
00:59:21,059 --> 00:59:23,853
Nothing special. I just
didn�t want to be there anymore.

828
00:59:24,312 --> 00:59:25,980
That was the part of you
I never understood.

829
00:59:27,273 --> 00:59:28,983
You never understood anything.

830
01:00:08,898 --> 01:00:10,024
Here�s a sweater.

831
01:00:10,817 --> 01:00:11,943
Thank you.

832
01:00:32,964 --> 01:00:34,549
Hello

833
01:00:36,551 --> 01:00:37,635
Hello

834
01:00:49,480 --> 01:00:51,858
Let�s wait a bit.
- I�m not waiting.

835
01:00:56,988 --> 01:00:58,573
They said they�d be here.

836
01:01:04,120 --> 01:01:05,496
Don�t trespass.

837
01:01:14,797 --> 01:01:16,215
I really needed to look at it.

838
01:01:16,591 --> 01:01:19,469
Thanks for coming along.
We can grab a bite on the way back.

839
01:01:25,433 --> 01:01:26,768
We didn�t have this before.

840
01:01:27,185 --> 01:01:28,311
Your taste is deepening.

841
01:01:29,687 --> 01:01:30,605
Stop it.

842
01:01:32,148 --> 01:01:35,360
People are so unreliable you know.
�
I told him I�d be here by noon.

843
01:01:36,152 --> 01:01:37,320
Eighty miles for nothing.

844
01:01:37,612 --> 01:01:40,281
Don�t be angry.
- Why shouldn�t I - It�s so American.

845
01:01:40,615 --> 01:01:41,657
What does that mean

846
01:01:41,991 --> 01:01:44,660
All this efficiency
You�re so relentless pedantic.
�

847
01:01:45,953 --> 01:01:48,039
Is this East Germany
meeting its match in America

848
01:01:48,373 --> 01:01:50,583
Stop it or get out of the car.
�

849
01:01:53,336 --> 01:01:54,921
Where�s your sense of humor

850
01:01:59,926 --> 01:02:01,594
You�re driving in the wrong direction.

851
01:02:01,928 --> 01:02:04,389
It may be wrong
�
but that�s where we�re going.

852
01:02:21,697 --> 01:02:24,117
That�s good.... They can�t get more.

853
01:02:34,710 --> 01:02:36,212
I�Il get some branches.

854
01:03:03,030 --> 01:03:04,115
Hello...

855
01:03:07,952 --> 01:03:08,870
Bye.

856
01:03:13,624 --> 01:03:16,210
They�Il send someone tomorrow
to open the house.

857
01:03:18,463 --> 01:03:19,547
On the Sunday

858
01:03:22,383 --> 01:03:24,385
I think I have to stay
somewhere out here.

859
01:03:26,345 --> 01:03:28,181
I can drive you back.

860
01:03:29,348 --> 01:03:31,476
Or drop you off at a bus
�
or there�s a train too.

861
01:03:34,395 --> 01:03:35,521
I�m not going anywhere.

862
01:03:39,525 --> 01:03:40,568
Sure this is not a problem

863
01:03:42,612 --> 01:03:43,779
An enormous one
�

864
01:03:44,238 --> 01:03:46,115
but one I can handle
if you stop shouting at me.

865
01:03:56,417 --> 01:03:59,086
No I mean Lindsey said
�
you have to be back tonight.

866
01:03:59,629 --> 01:04:02,048
Yeah and you said
�
you have to look at the house tomorrow.

867
01:04:07,011 --> 01:04:09,138
Let me call the tow truck.

868
01:04:17,438 --> 01:04:18,523
OK thank you.
�

869
01:04:49,762 --> 01:04:50,930
There�s 21.

870
01:04:54,016 --> 01:04:55,643
Here�s twenty...

871
01:04:57,520 --> 01:04:58,604
23.

872
01:05:00,481 --> 01:05:01,524
Here.
- OK.

873
01:05:02,441 --> 01:05:03,651
See you in a bit.

874
01:05:04,318 --> 01:05:05,361
Yeah...

875
01:05:34,974 --> 01:05:36,434
Look at that

876
01:05:56,662 --> 01:05:58,914
If we don�t go now
it�s going to start to mist or rain

877
01:05:59,290 --> 01:06:00,541
or it�Il get dark.

878
01:06:01,876 --> 01:06:03,753
I need a walk.

879
01:06:19,894 --> 01:06:22,104
I need to call Rachel for the cats.

880
01:06:23,939 --> 01:06:24,982
And...

881
01:06:25,858 --> 01:06:29,153
we should get toothbrushes
and stuff. Maybe some boots.

882
01:06:43,918 --> 01:06:45,920
There�s something different
about the hotel.

883
01:06:47,046 --> 01:06:48,089
No.

884
01:06:48,547 --> 01:06:50,424
Time has passed that�s all.
�

885
01:06:50,925 --> 01:06:52,551
The hotel is the same.

886
01:06:52,885 --> 01:06:54,303
It�s more imposing though.

887
01:06:54,929 --> 01:06:57,014
It hasn�t changed
- Have you changed

888
01:06:57,473 --> 01:06:58,724
Yes I have.

889
01:06:59,058 --> 01:07:01,727
In what way
- In ways I don�t want to talk about.

890
01:07:08,401 --> 01:07:11,028
I take it you think
you�re still the same.

891
01:07:12,029 --> 01:07:13,864
Well I�m older I�m balder...
�

892
01:07:14,240 --> 01:07:16,742
I don�t mean that.
- Il know what you mean...

893
01:07:59,410 --> 01:08:00,953
Yeah a table for two please.
�

894
01:08:01,787 --> 01:08:03,706
OK lovely thank you.
� �
See you later.

895
01:08:07,918 --> 01:08:11,672
Last time we saw this restaurant
and thought it was too expensive

896
01:08:12,006 --> 01:08:13,674
or else it was too full
�
do you remember

897
01:08:17,261 --> 01:08:20,264
I checked the name of it
and thought this time we would go there.

898
01:08:20,598 --> 01:08:23,350
I can�t remember
having any food at all last time.

899
01:08:24,310 --> 01:08:27,104
We had bad chowder in some corner place
just down from here.

900
01:08:27,480 --> 01:08:30,024
You hated it and I didn�t finish it.

901
01:08:30,566 --> 01:08:31,817
I don�t remember that.

902
01:08:32,443 --> 01:08:34,445
I said it was homemade.

903
01:08:34,779 --> 01:08:36,697
And you said we were all homemade
�

904
01:08:36,989 --> 01:08:39,325
and maybe that was
the worst thing about us.

905
01:08:42,161 --> 01:08:43,496
What does that mean

906
01:08:52,963 --> 01:08:54,048
Thanks.

907
01:09:09,355 --> 01:09:11,273
It was nice to be back at the library.

908
01:09:12,733 --> 01:09:13,984
I couldn�t make it.

909
01:09:14,360 --> 01:09:17,780
Well the reading would have been
embarrassing with you in the room.

910
01:09:20,407 --> 01:09:21,450
When I worked in the library

911
01:09:21,909 --> 01:09:24,370
I loved the manuscripts
more than the books.

912
01:09:25,621 --> 01:09:28,874
Kafka and Twain and Nabokov...

913
01:09:34,046 --> 01:09:36,799
Weren�t you intimidated
- No - No

914
01:09:37,174 --> 01:09:39,176
No. On the contrary.

915
01:09:39,844 --> 01:09:43,597
Seeing how everyone who wrote started
with ordinary things trying out
� �

916
01:09:43,889 --> 01:09:46,058
and when I saw those lines crossed out
�

917
01:09:46,559 --> 01:09:47,601
whole pages...

918
01:09:47,935 --> 01:09:49,854
No one was ever sure
of what they were writing
�

919
01:09:50,479 --> 01:09:52,398
not when they started
�
not even the greatest.

920
01:09:52,731 --> 01:09:55,067
They were not yet fully formed.
They had to work.

921
01:09:58,863 --> 01:10:02,032
Once when I was a teenager
I learned an entire passage of Plato

922
01:10:02,449 --> 01:10:04,034
to impress my father

923
01:10:04,410 --> 01:10:07,413
only to be told that he knew it all
in the original Greek.

924
01:10:10,875 --> 01:10:12,710
You never grow up.

925
01:10:14,253 --> 01:10:15,504
For me it wasn�t funny at all.

926
01:10:15,838 --> 01:10:16,881
I know
�

927
01:10:17,214 --> 01:10:20,593
I almost cried
when you told me for the first time.

928
01:10:21,677 --> 01:10:23,137
I did
- Yeah.

929
01:10:23,596 --> 01:10:24,972
That�s how you got me.

930
01:10:26,098 --> 01:10:27,808
I was so innocent.

931
01:11:03,844 --> 01:11:05,554
Just give me a minute please.

932
01:13:49,343 --> 01:13:52,012
When we drove out here
I wasn�t sure how it feel.

933
01:13:52,888 --> 01:13:54,765
I thought it was me who thought that.

934
01:13:56,183 --> 01:13:58,435
In a way this could be
�
the next day after the last time.

935
01:13:58,727 --> 01:14:00,062
Don�t speak.

936
01:14:03,607 --> 01:14:06,318
You used to say
that we were world champions.

937
01:14:08,362 --> 01:14:09,696
At being happy.

938
01:14:53,824 --> 01:14:55,617
The only thing that I promise myself

939
01:14:55,951 --> 01:14:58,036
that if I buy it I can�t sell it.

940
01:15:00,247 --> 01:15:02,457
No more moving or regretting.

941
01:15:04,376 --> 01:15:06,378
It�s only two hours from the city.

942
01:15:07,087 --> 01:15:08,255
I like the city.

943
01:15:10,007 --> 01:15:12,176
It would mean giving up
going anywhere else.

944
01:15:16,346 --> 01:15:17,764
This is where I would sit.

945
01:15:18,765 --> 01:15:20,392
And I would never leave.

946
01:15:24,855 --> 01:15:26,398
What does he do your friend
�

947
01:15:27,065 --> 01:15:29,610
How did he make the money to have this

948
01:15:31,111 --> 01:15:32,237
He writes essays.

949
01:15:32,738 --> 01:15:35,365
He writes essays and makes money
From essays

950
01:15:35,699 --> 01:15:37,659
No stupid he�s a lawyer.
�

951
01:15:38,535 --> 01:15:39,953
He sues people.

952
01:15:40,579 --> 01:15:43,457
He gets up early in the morning
and he sues people.

953
01:15:45,417 --> 01:15:47,127
Was that a joke about the essays

954
01:15:50,297 --> 01:15:52,549
I think I would have to spend
a night out here on my own

955
01:15:52,883 --> 01:15:54,134
to see how it feels.

956
01:15:54,927 --> 01:15:58,138
Maybe it�s too remote too beautiful
� �

957
01:15:58,639 --> 01:16:00,307
too frightening in the dark.

958
01:16:25,916 --> 01:16:27,167
Could we change things now

959
01:16:28,335 --> 01:16:30,587
Change what
- Change our lives

960
01:16:31,546 --> 01:16:33,507
Or decide that we should
- No no.
�

961
01:16:33,840 --> 01:16:35,300
Listen. Listen to me.

962
01:16:37,052 --> 01:16:38,262
I�m with someone
�

963
01:16:39,012 --> 01:16:41,890
but I would leave her. - Don�t say it.
- I would leave her this second.

964
01:16:44,226 --> 01:16:46,853
And then what move in with me
�
Take me to Berlin

965
01:16:47,187 --> 01:16:50,190
Can�t we have a second chance
We could live together like we did then.

966
01:16:51,692 --> 01:16:53,318
We never lived together.

967
01:16:55,070 --> 01:16:57,572
You were always elsewhere
�
always on the move.

968
01:16:58,323 --> 01:16:59,783
Maybe we are wiser now.

969
01:17:02,536 --> 01:17:04,413
I won�t make that mistake again.

970
01:17:07,958 --> 01:17:10,127
You�re not wise at all are you
�

971
01:17:13,046 --> 01:17:14,089
What do you mean

972
01:17:40,907 --> 01:17:42,284
Tell me about you.

973
01:17:42,617 --> 01:17:43,785
Since we last met

974
01:17:44,119 --> 01:17:45,787
Whatever. Tell me about your life.

975
01:17:46,246 --> 01:17:47,456
Leave me out of it.

976
01:17:48,206 --> 01:17:50,208
But how It will always be us.

977
01:17:53,211 --> 01:17:55,714
Not your work or your writing
�

978
01:17:56,173 --> 01:17:57,466
No it�s you.
�

979
01:18:00,218 --> 01:18:01,678
Women.

980
01:18:02,554 --> 01:18:03,889
There will always be women.

981
01:18:04,514 --> 01:18:07,309
Go on.
- It�s of no importance.

982
01:18:08,226 --> 01:18:10,645
I�m happy now. Happy to be here.

983
01:18:11,480 --> 01:18:12,606
Happy.

984
01:18:48,975 --> 01:18:52,104
After we split up
�
or however you would call it
�

985
01:18:55,190 --> 01:18:56,525
I met someone.

986
01:18:57,234 --> 01:18:59,528
Oh Someone you�re still seeing

987
01:19:03,031 --> 01:19:06,410
Please don�t ask any questions.
Just let me talk.

988
01:19:07,285 --> 01:19:08,745
Then I won�t talk again.

989
01:19:09,913 --> 01:19:13,041
I was just... - I�ve been waiting
to see you so I could tell you this.

990
01:19:14,793 --> 01:19:15,877
Maybe...

991
01:19:17,921 --> 01:19:20,507
Maybe you�re the only one
I needed to know this.

992
01:19:24,052 --> 01:19:26,513
I moved very close to him
�
I mean I lived with him

993
01:19:26,847 --> 01:19:29,599
and I thought that we would manage
our lives together but...

994
01:19:30,308 --> 01:19:32,686
natural and easy too
�

995
01:19:33,437 --> 01:19:34,479
happy.

996
01:19:35,522 --> 01:19:36,982
You�re still seeing him

997
01:19:37,607 --> 01:19:38,859
He died.

998
01:19:42,070 --> 01:19:43,405
Marcus died.

999
01:19:48,368 --> 01:19:49,453
God...

1000
01:19:53,707 --> 01:19:55,625
I can hardly say it still.

1001
01:20:02,507 --> 01:20:03,925
What age was he

1002
01:20:04,384 --> 01:20:05,886
God he was young.
�

1003
01:20:08,889 --> 01:20:10,223
It was a heart attack.

1004
01:20:10,599 --> 01:20:12,434
He had it on the street.
He fell down dead.

1005
01:20:12,851 --> 01:20:14,478
That is what happened.

1006
01:20:16,521 --> 01:20:18,773
You know he died and I didn�t know
� �

1007
01:20:20,358 --> 01:20:21,902
or feel you know
�

1008
01:20:23,445 --> 01:20:24,988
He was in the same city.

1009
01:20:25,530 --> 01:20:27,073
I didn�t feel...

1010
01:20:50,680 --> 01:20:52,474
We lived on Bleecker Street.

1011
01:20:55,560 --> 01:20:57,479
He had found his habitat

1012
01:20:58,146 --> 01:21:02,400
and that was all he wanted me to
�
be there the chairs the desk the bed.
� � �

1013
01:21:04,152 --> 01:21:05,195
He was a lawyer too.

1014
01:21:08,240 --> 01:21:09,866
He loved loopholes
�

1015
01:21:10,325 --> 01:21:13,245
strange new ways
of looking at a contract like...
�

1016
01:21:15,247 --> 01:21:19,000
the same way as he liked chess
and minimalist art and some jazz and...

1017
01:21:20,835 --> 01:21:22,546
He had only one suit.

1018
01:21:24,089 --> 01:21:26,633
Always wore
the same type of white shirt.

1019
01:21:30,428 --> 01:21:32,931
I loved being with him
when he was asleep.

1020
01:21:40,355 --> 01:21:44,192
He had a way of waking up
and then looking at you
�

1021
01:21:44,651 --> 01:21:46,278
half apologizing.

1022
01:21:51,533 --> 01:21:52,826
You�re shivering.

1023
01:22:01,501 --> 01:22:04,129
I often feel in places like this
� �
you know
�

1024
01:22:05,171 --> 01:22:07,382
the soft places the edge of things
� �

1025
01:22:08,925 --> 01:22:11,636
when it�s like this in the winter
�
that he might be here
�

1026
01:22:13,263 --> 01:22:14,347
or come here.

1027
01:22:14,681 --> 01:22:16,891
Like he came across the room to me
in that bar.

1028
01:22:19,311 --> 01:22:21,605
and said nothing looked at me
�
and sipped his drink

1029
01:22:21,938 --> 01:22:24,357
and made clear to me
that he wasn�t going to go.

1030
01:22:30,822 --> 01:22:32,198
Is that why we came here

1031
01:22:32,741 --> 01:22:33,783
No.

1032
01:22:34,701 --> 01:22:35,744
No.

1033
01:22:37,120 --> 01:22:38,705
It�s not why we came here but...
�

1034
01:22:41,082 --> 01:22:43,209
I mean I needed to tell you
what happened
�

1035
01:22:44,753 --> 01:22:46,087
no

1036
01:22:46,421 --> 01:22:49,007
I know you thought
something else might happen.

1037
01:22:50,884 --> 01:22:53,970
I could see when you were in that house
that you don�t just dream in your books
�

1038
01:22:54,304 --> 01:22:58,099
you dream in your life.
But you cannot dream about me.

1039
01:23:05,774 --> 01:23:06,900
But last night
�

1040
01:23:09,402 --> 01:23:12,155
and this morning
�
I felt... You felt something too.

1041
01:23:12,489 --> 01:23:13,990
Oh don�t tell me what I felt.

1042
01:23:15,158 --> 01:23:16,117
But you�re free now.

1043
01:23:16,576 --> 01:23:20,163
Free is not the word. You�re alone.
- But... - But you...

1044
01:23:21,706 --> 01:23:22,999
I am not free.

1045
01:23:26,670 --> 01:23:29,464
Is there someone else
- No.

1046
01:23:31,049 --> 01:23:32,425
I mean that�s what I�m...

1047
01:23:33,426 --> 01:23:34,386
That�s what I�m saying.

1048
01:23:45,438 --> 01:23:47,607
I went straight back to work
after he died.

1049
01:23:48,149 --> 01:23:50,318
There was a case
and it couldn�t have been postponed

1050
01:23:50,652 --> 01:23:52,278
and I was the only one briefed.

1051
01:23:52,612 --> 01:23:54,114
Then I took on more work
�

1052
01:23:54,823 --> 01:23:57,409
and then I got head hunted
�
which is a good way of putting it.

1053
01:23:58,576 --> 01:24:01,705
Finally when I found that I
hadn�t stopped working for a year
�

1054
01:24:02,622 --> 01:24:03,957
I went to the therapist

1055
01:24:04,499 --> 01:24:07,836
who was so frightened at the state
I was in that she sent me to a shrink
�

1056
01:24:08,169 --> 01:24:09,087
like a real doctor.

1057
01:24:10,964 --> 01:24:13,883
We tried talking
�
but I make a living from talking.

1058
01:24:14,217 --> 01:24:15,635
I mean we tried medication.

1059
01:24:16,678 --> 01:24:17,971
I didn�t take it.

1060
01:24:19,305 --> 01:24:21,558
In the end he used hypnosis on me.

1061
01:24:23,476 --> 01:24:24,352
Have you ever done it

1062
01:24:25,895 --> 01:24:26,938
No.

1063
01:24:29,733 --> 01:24:31,276
That is a shock.

1064
01:24:35,947 --> 01:24:38,700
That is the biggest shock I�ve ever had
�
I mean Max...
�

1065
01:24:43,037 --> 01:24:45,707
I went into Marcus�s mind
as he lay dying.

1066
01:24:47,500 --> 01:24:48,543
You know...

1067
01:24:50,170 --> 01:24:52,005
It was as though I was with him
�

1068
01:24:52,338 --> 01:24:53,840
you know and not beside him
�

1069
01:24:54,174 --> 01:24:55,842
but in his mind too.

1070
01:24:57,469 --> 01:25:01,848
It was as though he had taken me
with him or part of me or...
�

1071
01:25:02,807 --> 01:25:05,894
and left the rest of me
�
what you see now you know I mean...
�

1072
01:25:08,229 --> 01:25:09,439
I was with him.

1073
01:25:10,815 --> 01:25:12,317
I felt what he felt.

1074
01:25:14,736 --> 01:25:16,613
I died as he died.

1075
01:25:16,946 --> 01:25:17,989
Max.

1076
01:25:51,147 --> 01:25:54,484
You know the summer after you left
�
you sent me letters.

1077
01:25:55,026 --> 01:25:56,528
You said you were traveling.

1078
01:25:56,903 --> 01:25:58,112
I was really puzzled by that
�

1079
01:25:58,446 --> 01:26:00,573
I thought you were taken up
by the new Berlin
�

1080
01:26:01,741 --> 01:26:04,452
and then we had these talks
from your hotel rooms and...

1081
01:26:05,078 --> 01:26:07,163
I never knew why
you weren�t in New York.

1082
01:26:08,289 --> 01:26:10,458
You know
�
I wanted you to be in New York.

1083
01:26:11,709 --> 01:26:14,838
I didn�t want you to be in Sienna
or in Florence or...

1084
01:26:15,630 --> 01:26:16,589
But you didn�t care.

1085
01:26:17,632 --> 01:26:19,259
You were fooling around weren�t you
�

1086
01:26:19,843 --> 01:26:21,553
It wasn�t serious was it

1087
01:26:21,886 --> 01:26:24,722
It was just a story
you could tell years later no
�

1088
01:26:25,056 --> 01:26:26,933
Tell me that it�s true.
Please tell me.

1089
01:26:27,392 --> 01:26:30,019
tell me for once something that�s true
�
you know.

1090
01:26:30,687 --> 01:26:33,189
Why didn�t you come back to New York

1091
01:26:34,107 --> 01:26:35,441
I was distracted.

1092
01:26:36,150 --> 01:26:38,194
There was so much going on.
I was poor...

1093
01:26:39,362 --> 01:26:41,573
I let the year go by and...
- And

1094
01:26:49,998 --> 01:26:52,000
And there was someone on a book tour.

1095
01:26:53,251 --> 01:26:54,419
She got pregnant.

1096
01:26:59,132 --> 01:27:00,633
She wanted to keep the child
�

1097
01:27:02,135 --> 01:27:03,177
a girl.

1098
01:27:08,808 --> 01:27:11,895
Do you see her
- Of course I see her.

1099
01:27:12,478 --> 01:27:13,605
I love her very much.

1100
01:27:16,816 --> 01:27:17,942
And she�s how old

1101
01:27:19,152 --> 01:27:20,278
She�s 16 now.

1102
01:27:21,863 --> 01:27:24,324
It happened
the first winter after I left.

1103
01:27:27,994 --> 01:27:29,037
So...

1104
01:27:31,539 --> 01:27:33,291
Why didn�t you ever tell me

1105
01:27:37,253 --> 01:27:38,796
I didn�t want to harm you.

1106
01:27:40,840 --> 01:27:41,883
Oh...

1107
01:27:42,842 --> 01:27:44,469
You know that's
what I liked about you.

1108
01:27:44,886 --> 01:27:46,596
That you didn�t mean any harm.

1109
01:27:47,680 --> 01:27:49,098
You never meant any harm.

1110
01:27:50,183 --> 01:27:51,517
Things just happened.

1111
01:27:58,983 --> 01:28:00,652
I never knew what you saw in me.

1112
01:28:03,780 --> 01:28:05,990
I wanted you to be
the father of my children.

1113
01:28:34,519 --> 01:28:36,062
It�s been taken care of sir.
�

1114
01:28:37,689 --> 01:28:38,773
Oh thank you.

1115
01:30:44,732 --> 01:30:45,775
Hi, this is Clara

1116
01:30:46,150 --> 01:30:48,694
and if you love me, leave me a message.

1117
01:31:01,082 --> 01:31:02,125
Hi, this is Clara

1118
01:31:02,458 --> 01:31:04,877
and if you love me, leave me a message.

1119
01:31:30,611 --> 01:31:32,029
Hey Lindsey it�s Max...
� �

1120
01:31:33,072 --> 01:31:34,991
Do you have Clara�s address

1121
01:32:31,505 --> 01:32:33,132
How long have you been living here

1122
01:32:33,466 --> 01:32:34,675
All the time.

1123
01:32:38,846 --> 01:32:40,056
Over a kebab shop.

1124
01:32:40,973 --> 01:32:43,059
That�s what I�ve been smelling
all the time

1125
01:32:43,684 --> 01:32:44,852
Max don�t start.
�

1126
01:32:47,855 --> 01:32:51,567
It�s in the pillows it�s all over the
�
bed. The sexy smell of cooking kebab.

1127
01:32:51,901 --> 01:32:53,361
I didn�t want you to come here.

1128
01:32:57,073 --> 01:32:58,282
I should have come the first day.

1129
01:33:00,326 --> 01:33:01,619
I was careless.

1130
01:33:03,162 --> 01:33:04,538
I�m sorry Clara.
�

1131
01:33:06,207 --> 01:33:07,959
What I loved about you was...

1132
01:33:11,003 --> 01:33:12,421
was that you knew so much.

1133
01:33:13,130 --> 01:33:15,049
I loved that you were older than me.

1134
01:33:15,383 --> 01:33:16,425
I still do.

1135
01:33:17,176 --> 01:33:18,844
I was happy when you suggested

1136
01:33:19,178 --> 01:33:21,472
that I go to New York
and got me this job.

1137
01:33:25,518 --> 01:33:28,896
But not once on the phone
did you ask me about my work.

1138
01:33:29,397 --> 01:33:31,065
What exactly I�m doing here.

1139
01:33:35,361 --> 01:33:38,489
I learned a lot of stuff: that the city
�
if you are alone is a dump
� �

1140
01:33:38,823 --> 01:33:40,574
your work everybody thinks you got it
�

1141
01:33:40,908 --> 01:33:42,910
because your guy said
you were to have it.

1142
01:33:44,662 --> 01:33:46,706
was grateful for Roderick�s help.

1143
01:33:47,748 --> 01:33:49,292
We had a lot of fun.

1144
01:33:51,711 --> 01:33:53,462
He helped me survive the city.

1145
01:33:53,796 --> 01:33:56,340
It�s fine in taxis moving from
one place to another
�

1146
01:33:56,674 --> 01:33:59,302
it�s fine in hotels
�
it�s fine in a Woody Allen movie
�

1147
01:33:59,635 --> 01:34:02,388
but try it on your own
�
on a Monday night in winter
� �

1148
01:34:02,722 --> 01:34:04,557
when the cold
is getting into your bones.

1149
01:34:05,891 --> 01:34:07,101
And the man you love

1150
01:34:07,476 --> 01:34:09,603
is 1000 miles away and does not care.

1151
01:34:12,106 --> 01:34:13,357
Just try it once.

1152
01:34:13,941 --> 01:34:15,401
Try it once.

1153
01:34:16,068 --> 01:34:17,194
I�m sorry.

1154
01:34:25,536 --> 01:34:27,121
I want you to tell me who you are

1155
01:34:27,705 --> 01:34:29,123
and what you want from me.

1156
01:34:29,582 --> 01:34:30,916
I want you to look at me.

1157
01:34:31,751 --> 01:34:33,961
I look at you I see you Clara.
�

1158
01:34:34,503 --> 01:34:35,588
I was jealous.

1159
01:34:35,921 --> 01:34:37,173
Jealous

1160
01:34:37,798 --> 01:34:39,342
So you eloped with fucking Lindsey.

1161
01:34:41,052 --> 01:34:43,304
I didn�t go to Montauk
with fucking Lindsey

1162
01:34:44,555 --> 01:34:45,556
You did not

1163
01:34:45,931 --> 01:34:48,351
No I didn�t go to Montauk
with fucking Lindsey.

1164
01:34:54,774 --> 01:34:56,317
We�re going home.
I...

1165
01:34:57,693 --> 01:34:59,195
I want you to come with me.

1166
01:34:59,737 --> 01:35:02,114
Something really bad
must have happened to you.

1167
01:35:04,784 --> 01:35:06,786
But I don�t want to know what it was.

1168
01:35:09,246 --> 01:35:10,539
Let�s go tonight.

1169
01:35:17,088 --> 01:35:19,882
Clara repeat what I�m saying
� �
say after me:

1170
01:35:21,258 --> 01:35:22,676
I�ve read all your books.

1171
01:35:26,722 --> 01:35:27,765
Please.

1172
01:35:30,434 --> 01:35:32,019
I�ve read all your books.

1173
01:35:32,853 --> 01:35:34,647
No one except me will tolerate you.

1174
01:35:35,231 --> 01:35:36,732
That�s just plain silly.

1175
01:35:37,066 --> 01:35:38,442
Just say it.

1176
01:35:44,115 --> 01:35:46,742
No one else except me will tolerate you.

1177
01:35:51,789 --> 01:35:54,417
You�re not gonna change
�
but I�m staying with you.

1178
01:35:56,544 --> 01:35:57,628
I don�t know why.

1179
01:36:00,381 --> 01:36:01,882
No not this one.
�

1180
01:36:03,634 --> 01:36:04,677
Ah...

1181
01:36:07,680 --> 01:36:11,267
Don�t contradict him. He likes women
to be sweet and agreeable.

1182
01:36:11,600 --> 01:36:12,852
Sweet and agreeable

1183
01:36:13,185 --> 01:36:16,105
There�s a drawing
he promised me years ago a Paul Klee.
�

1184
01:36:16,439 --> 01:36:18,441
It may get 300 000 at an auction.
�

1185
01:36:18,774 --> 01:36:21,026
Of course. Your pension fund.

1186
01:36:21,402 --> 01:36:22,862
Sweet and agreeable.

1187
01:36:25,239 --> 01:36:28,826
And there�s Malevich Kandinsky
� �

1188
01:36:29,160 --> 01:36:33,831
and somewhere we have Corot Klee
� �
many things manuals and...
�

1189
01:36:34,623 --> 01:36:36,792
Some are from my family of course.
�

1190
01:36:40,629 --> 01:36:42,548
But now I wonder
�

1191
01:36:42,882 --> 01:36:44,675
if I�m not tired of them.

1192
01:36:45,468 --> 01:36:47,803
Which is why I don�t mind the light.

1193
01:36:48,345 --> 01:36:49,513
You see the light

1194
01:36:54,059 --> 01:36:55,102
They fade
�

1195
01:36:55,478 --> 01:36:56,520
you know.

1196
01:36:56,854 --> 01:36:58,606
You�Il see they fade...
�

1197
01:37:00,232 --> 01:37:02,860
A little each year more in summer.
�

1198
01:37:04,570 --> 01:37:06,697
So why don�t you protect them
�

1199
01:37:09,408 --> 01:37:11,577
I could burn them. They are mine.

1200
01:37:11,911 --> 01:37:13,245
I let them fade.

1201
01:37:14,663 --> 01:37:16,123
They'll disappear when I do.

1202
01:37:16,457 --> 01:37:18,375
I find that comforting.

1203
01:37:21,086 --> 01:37:22,546
I think it�s disgusting.

1204
01:37:23,005 --> 01:37:24,965
No I don�t think so.
�

1205
01:37:25,633 --> 01:37:27,343
They are mine you understand
�

1206
01:37:27,676 --> 01:37:30,804
I own them.
- Bullshit No one can own them.

1207
01:37:31,931 --> 01:37:34,517
My dear
�
I think this conversation will become...

1208
01:37:34,850 --> 01:37:36,769
extremely boring.

1209
01:37:37,937 --> 01:37:39,772
Why don�t you occupy Wall Street

1210
01:37:46,362 --> 01:37:47,238
Drink

1211
01:37:48,197 --> 01:37:49,323
Thank you.

1212
01:37:52,826 --> 01:37:54,620
Now for the real reason

1213
01:37:54,954 --> 01:37:57,289
I brought you here Max.
�

1214
01:37:59,917 --> 01:38:01,001
Open it.

1215
01:38:11,845 --> 01:38:13,639
I want you to have it.

1216
01:38:15,057 --> 01:38:17,017
You remember Rebecca
was with us when I bought it

1217
01:38:21,897 --> 01:38:23,732
You still see her
- No.

1218
01:38:24,191 --> 01:38:25,943
She works too much now.

1219
01:38:26,652 --> 01:38:28,153
You

1220
01:38:29,363 --> 01:38:31,240
Go on take it.
�
Let that be an end to it.

1221
01:38:32,575 --> 01:38:34,243
Take it Max.
�

1222
01:38:35,286 --> 01:38:36,996
Before it fades away here.

1223
01:39:04,982 --> 01:39:06,233
I hope to be back.

1224
01:39:06,942 --> 01:39:08,861
Next year. Maybe sooner.

1225
01:39:10,821 --> 01:39:11,864
Oh
�

1226
01:39:12,823 --> 01:39:13,866
your scarf.

1227
01:39:15,409 --> 01:39:16,493
Keep it.

1228
01:39:17,119 --> 01:39:18,162
Really

1229
01:39:19,997 --> 01:39:21,248
Thank you. Bye.

1230
01:40:01,872 --> 01:40:04,124
I love you. You know that.

1231
01:40:05,876 --> 01:40:08,629
I did... I did something very wrong.

1232
01:40:08,962 --> 01:40:10,839
I feel I can tell you that.

1233
01:40:14,718 --> 01:40:16,011
What happened in Montauk

1234
01:40:16,929 --> 01:40:19,473
I... I saw a ghost.

1235
01:40:22,309 --> 01:40:23,644
Did you fuck her

1236
01:40:26,689 --> 01:40:28,232
It wasn�t about sex.

1237
01:40:30,192 --> 01:40:31,568
Maybe it was.

1238
01:40:33,362 --> 01:40:34,905
You can�t fuck a ghost.

1239
