I'm afraid I won't be able to wear them

that's not true

you will get well

I'm sure you've done a marvelous job

do you still remember...

How we met?

Yes

and do you remember my hand?

Yes, I do

Excuse me which way is apartment one?

To your left

Who is it?

I'm looking for Ms. Hua

Just call me xiao zhang

what's the matter with you?

Nothing

stand still!

Put your hands down!

What's going on there?

Nothing

take off your pants!

Take them off!

Or you'd rather I call your boss

off with them!

And that too!

Nothing, you say?

Come here

Give me your hand

Never touched a woman before, have you?

Then how can you be a tailor?

You'll be touching many women

if that's how you are...

Who'd want you for a tailor?

I'm nice to you, aren't I?

Good...

Now listen!

Your boss is getting old

he said you have talents

one day you'll become my tailor

Remember this feeling...

And you'll make me beautiful clothes

Oh, Ms. Hua!

Congratulations!

I heard you're getting married

such a happy event! Of course we know about it!

Xiao zhang?

He went out

right...

The festival is coming up...

So we're rather busy

please, you must not say that!

You know xiao zhang is devoted to you

he doesn't care about any other clients...

But there's nothing he wouldn't do for your clothes!

Yes, right

when he comes back I'll send him right over

yes, yes

you're crazy

didn't I tell you not to come here again?

What if someone sees you? Who'll take care of me?

I'll take care of you

really? How? What am I going to eat?

You can eat me

bastard!

That's enough

We still have plenty of time

I'll call you. Okay?

- Okay, I'm off - go on!

Mr. Zhao, leaving already?

Yes, I have got things to do

Ying

Call him, tell him to hurry over

lover? What're you talking about?

Oh, him

Mr. Zhang, where've you been?

Is Ms. Hua awake?

He looks like my lover? She's waiting for you

tell him to be extra careful

give him a few dumplings for the festival

yes, ma'am

hello...

What'd you say?

Not coming? Are you scared?

Scared of your wife, I'd say

scared of me?

That's perfectly fine

if you are scared, don't come

Ms. Hua wants you to have these

she made these dumplings herself

please thank her for me yes

good bye

- goodbye - goodbye

Mr. Zhang...

You're early

She's speaking with Mr. Zhao

Her clothes are finished I'd like to see her for a fitting

give them to me

it looks like... it'll be awhile

alright

if there are any problems...

Please have her call me

- yes - I'll be going then

will you stop it!

How many times have I told you?

We're cousins. We are not lovers!

I know what you're up to

you think you're done with me is that it?

You want to give me the boot

it's not that easy!

Let me tell you...

If you don't settle it amicably...

I'll show you!

Ma'am, Mr. Zhang is still waiting

he has some nerves showing up

making a mess of these clothes!

I don't want any of them!

I'm through with him!

Xiao zhang is out. Who's calling?

Oh, ying, how are you?

This is Jin

he went out

what?

Ms. Hua wants to see him?

I'll send him right over when he comes back

don't mention it

yes, yes...

Hello, Mr. Shao?

It's me

you didn't recognize my voice!

Heartless!

You didn't go out today?

I'm fine

I just called to say hello

these last couple of days...

I miss you so much!

Who?

Oh, him!

I haven't seen him for a long time

it's been ages

Mr. Shao...

I'm going back to work in a couple of days

I get so bored staying at home...

Doing nothing

Mr. Shao...

Now that I'm working again...

You must come visit me at the club

promise?

It's a deal

Are you free later?

Let's meet tonight

where'd you like to go?

Sure!

But you must come!

You promised!

See you tonight

This isn't too tight, is it?

Have I put on weight?

Just a little. It used to be 23

now, it's...

Just under 24

use the old measurements

I'm going back to work

I'll lose weight

oh no, please don't misunderstand

I'm not pressing you to settle the bill

I heard you are ill...

And I called to see how you're feeling

yes... yes

oh no, please, it's okay

you're an old client

yes, yes

please get some rest

let me know when it's convenient I'll send xiao zhang over

right. Yes, yes. Goodbye

Who the hell do you think you are?

You're a fucking whore!

You're not what you used to be!

With no money we have nothing to talk about!

You're back

what'd she say?

She's ill told me to go back in a few days

nonsense!

It's been over six months

I don't think she can hold up much longer

she has no sugar daddies and she doesn't work

with all her expensive habits...

And keeping that gigolo...

It's not easy

go back in a couple of days

we need to have the bill settled

Take these clothes...

If anyone wants them...

Sell them...

And keep the money

anyway I still owe you money

It's okay

I mean, these clothes...

Why don't you keep them?

Most of them are still brand new

I can't wear them all

I'm going on a trip

I don't want to take that many things with me

and it's such a shame to leave them behind

go on, take them

where are you going?

You've made me so many clothes

and I've never thanked you properly

Here

I know you like to drink

Here

bottoms up!

Who are you looking for?

Is Ms. Hua here please?

She's moved out

would you know where to?

No, ldont

thank you

who was that?

Someone looking for Ms. Hua

I told him she's moved out

palace hotel

the royal observatory is now hoisting...

An alert for typhoon Kate

it's centered at...

300 knots from Hong Kong...

Moving west—northwest

Hello

yes

xiao zhang?

He went out

who's calling please?

Ms. Hua?

Oh, yes

yes, yes...

This is Jin

oh, I'm so terribly sorry

I didn't recognize your voice

we haven't heard from you for ages

we really miss you

yes, yes

so you're back

where are you staying?

Oh, yes, yes

could I have your phone number please?

Yes, yes

good. When xiao zhang gets back...

I'll send him right over

right. Yes, yes

good bye

where is Ms. Hua's room please?

Upstairs, end of the corridor

thanks

Have some tea

it's been so many years

you still look the same you haven't changed a bit!

Neither have you!

Liar!

But that's rather kind of you

how've you been?

Doing well?

Got yourself a wife yet?

Why not?

No one wants me

why don't you find me one?

How about me?

You think I'm not good enough don't you?

No, of course not

then we have a deal!

Okay

you're so good to me

Could you...

Make me another dress?

What kind do you want?

Tell me

something really pretty

I have an old client from america

he's still very fond of me he's asked me out on a date

I think...

This may be my very last chance

I'd like you to help me

sure

This is all I have

take it

I'll pay you the rest...

When I've more come in

no, keep it

I still have your clothes

most of them are brand new

all they need is a little alteration

don't waste money

of course, I know you're keeping them

But...

I can't wear them anymore

I've lost weight

you'll probably need to take my measurements again

there's no need

I know your figure well

I'll just use my hands

Do you know where Ms. Hua went?

Try the waterfront

she's usually there at this hour

what for?

Making a living

she's not going out there for fun...

Certainly not in this rain!

Is that enough?

Who is she to you?

We're friends

fhends?

You're quite a friend, I'd say

always paying her rent

she's really ill

you should take her to a doctor

How are you feeling today?

Not too bad

don't come here anymore

it's contagious

no, it's okay

I've made the alterations

forget it

that man's already left

just look at me

I'm afraid I won't be able to wear them

that's not true

you will get well

shall we try them on?

I'm sure you've done a marvelous job

do you still remember...

How we met?

Yes

and do you remember my hand?

Yes, I do

you must have hated me that day

no I didn't

I want to thank you

if it hadn't been for your hand...

I wouldn't have become a tailor

forget about me

go love some other woman and be good to her

come closer

You've always been so good to me

and I've never repaid you

I'm afraid I won't have the chance

I've lost everything

I used to have this body

but it's no good anymore

all that's left of it is this pair of hands

You don't mind, do you?

Where've you been?

I was just looking for you

I went to see Ms. Hua off

she's gone?

Yes

that's quick

yes

there were a lot of people at the airport

they all went to see her off

she was so happy...

And so beautiful

she didn't have it easy, did she?

Two years ago I thought she's finished

then an opportunity came along and she's on her feet again

who would've guessed?

Yes...

Who would have guessed?

Have you finished Ms. Lau's dress?

What's wrong?

Oh, I remember exactly when it happened it was... uh...

It was two weeks ago...

Yesterday... The day I lost my equilibrium

it was the day after we were told we'd be pitching the Samson account

and hal, our head copy guy came in, and he's wearing...

What's the socially acceptable term? Toupee. This...

Someone hunted this, killed this and taped it to hal's head

we're in shock you can hear the molecules moving

and before we've processed this betrayal

hal says, calmly...

He's decided to do something about his hair problem...

And would appreciate if we don't make it a topic of conversation

this is my team

they're good people they're great at what they do

it's like jazz, watching them in a room

and if we can't talk about the senseless tragedy of hal's hair...

You should see them

faces like starving animals...

They look at me

they look to me

you know, Nick say something to hal... okay?

Do something!

It's an alarm clock

they want a new concept for their shitty little alarm clock

they have, Samson... Because your time's important to us

that's what... we're polishing the vase while the house falls down

do you have an alarm clock?

I do, yes

are you happy with it?

It does the job

right! But you need a new alarm clock doctor Pearl...

And it's gotta be a Samson

you want one with a new color a new texture...

A bigger winder for better torque...

A softer tick...

You want to kick it off the nightstand every morning for a year, you can...

Our interior mechanism is incredibly...

Robust

see what I'm saying? The message is simple

your life is lacking something

is that short for something?

Is what short for something?

Pean

yes. It's short for doctor Pearl

you were talking about alarm clocks

all around me, these other firms...

They're hitting home runs. Left and right

melts in your mouth, not in your hand

that's great

dollar for dollar you can't beat a Pontiac!

The Marlboro man!

Are any of your patients famous?

I can't discuss my patients

right. I saw a skit about that in a nightclub

doctor, patient. Patience, doctor

I don't want to know their names or anything personal

just if there're any products they happen to mention...

Mister penrose consumers take this very seriously

remember when Jack webb did those chesterfield ads?

I really can't help you there

it put their sales right through the roof

I have the data

your sister mentioned a recurring dream?

The woman in the dream!

The woman in the dream! Why do you say it that way?

Cecilia says it like that

and Cecilia is your wife?

Yes

and you tell her about the dream?

I made the mistake of mentioning it... once...

Now it's just become a ritual it was a ritual until...

Until yesterday

what happened yesterday?

I came down to the kitchen I was telling her about the dream

the latest installment a woman's in the dream

and when I wake up I don't remember who it is

but in the dream, I know her absolutely

you know, it's... It's not a sex dream...

Exactly

so, we're there...

And I said, boy, who's it? God...

Because I wasn't thinking about it...

And I felt like, the air in the room had changed, I looked over and...

There she was shoulders shaking, crying

why was she crying?

I don't know

did you ask her?

She wouldn't say

so she was upset

yes

Mr. Penrose, have you given any thought to sitting down?

I wonder if cavemen sat around talking about their dreams and having...

Coded conversations with their wives... over cold venison

do you often imagine that you're a caveman?

I'm reasonably happy with nineteen fifty-five

look at the advances...

In medicine, polio t.B., the Dodgers...

That was a joke

how is it with Cecilia since her crying in the kitchen?

It's great

she's like the nurse on the night ward when I had my tonsils out. Civil...

And unavailable

And how long is it since you've been having this dream?

Well, that's the thing

it was the night when hal showed up with the new friend on his head

that threw everything off

you see that the issue with the woman in the dream is a test?

I have to show Cecilia that I know the answer...

Or she'll be gone

you have to help me if this woman is pulling away from me...

I don't know what I'll do

I need to know the answer now

now

well, before I leave I gotta know

mister penrose

if you can get my sister to put a sentence together...

- Mister penrose - call me Nick

Nick! A human being is not a carburetor

we'll talk, see what happens everybody's different

you're under a lot of stress yes

you're anxious about the job the recurring dream and your wife

you're much more anxious than usual

exactly

now, there are various ways I can try to help you reduce your anxiety

the first is to have you lie down on this couch over here

This couch?

Yes, right here

put your head up on one end and slide your feet down on the other

the couch works for people?

I can tell you I've had great success with this couch

should I take my shoes off?

Yes, whatever makes you comfortable

alright, I'm not supposed to see you right? Is that part of it?

We don't want you on sensory overload we want your mind completely clear

should I close my eyes?

I find that that helps

because I see things in great detail

you want me to close my eyes for a moment?

Yeah, just close your eyes

Sometimes...

I imagine myself as a person with no responsibilities

that's very interesting

but... part of me knows that I enjoy it

yes, now I want you to tell me about your dream

okay

but first, take a minute go back to the beginning of the dream

once you've gotten there just pause for a moment...

And hold the first image in your mind

are you at the beginning?

Yes

tell me the first thing you see in the dream

a woman's face

can you see the woman in your mind right now?

Yes

good. Where are you? Are you close... or are you far away?

We're facing each other in bed it's just... it's right after...

She has her hand on my cheek

all right. That's very close

think for a minute what it feels like to lie there

how do you feel?

Good

then what happens?

She looks at me with this kind of funny smile and...

Goes off to the bathroom

she turns on the tub and lets it run

this is when I realize...

We've been in this room before

describe the room to me

it feels like a hotel room

doesn't feel like a place where anybody lives

the only personal effects in it belong to us...

So when I hear the water running...

I think, I love it...

That she's going to take a bath

and I begin to imagine her getting ready...

Taking off her makeup

putting her hair up

I just get so... so excited thinking about it

and I decide...

When I hear her turn the water off I'm gonna get up...

And get right in that bathtub with her

that's when the phone rings

who do you think might be calling?

I don't know

aren't you afraid of being discovered?

Not even the slightest bit guilty?

- Not the tiniest bit? - No. No guilt whatsoever

then what happens?

She sticks her head out of the bathroom and gives me this look that says:

Don't we have better things to do than answer a phone?

I watch her from the bed in the mirror

she takes a bath and...

She gets out and dries herself off

oh, god, then she climbs up on the sink in front of the mirror...

Like a cat...

And puts on her makeup

she finishes and...

Comes back in the bedroom I watch her as she gets dressed

then she goes in the bathroom and closes the door

she just goes in there for a minute closing the...

And she comes back in the living room... Picks up her purse...

Sits down next to me on the bed

she puts her hand on my face

there's a glove on her hand

then she kisses me

then she leaves

I just lay there for a minute

then the phone rings again I go to answer it...

But there's no one on the other end

then what happens?

Then I wake up

should I stop?

No! Stay in the dream! There's more work to do

there's still a lot of work to do

okay

- I feel so sad - well, yes

you want to be with her

yes

all right now. Stay there on the bed

in the dream now...

I want you to go back

go back in the dream to when the woman is in the bathroom

she got dressed and she went into the bathroom

so let me know when you see her go into the bathroom

okay

she's there?

Yes

all right. The bathroom door is closed

yes

and you're lying on the bed you're in the dream

you're still in the dream

still in the dream

yeah, I'm still in the dream

very good. Now...

Raise your head, slowly, slowly...

Where are you?

I'm standing

and where's the purse?

The purse?

You said that when she sat down next to you...

She picked up her purse

the purse is on the bureau

right. Okay. You see it?

Yes

go to it

what?

I want you to go to the purse

Why?

I don't know... she'll come out of the bathroom and catch me

well, she might not

I can't. I can't. I'm sorry. I'm...

- I'm sorry! - Don't!

You're in a very vulnerable state now

it's crucial you don't feel judged at this moment

- judged? - If you turn around any expression on my face...

No matter how sympathetic or supportive...

Would be viewed and imprinted as criticism

I cannot allow that!

I will not allow that!

Thank you

okay

Let's go back to your work for a while

- the ha! Stuff? - Forget the hal stuff

the problem at work the account. The alarm clock...

You feel as if you've run out of ideas

I feel like I've run out of good ideas

right. Something's missing

yes

okay

all right

what's your favorite part of the dream?

Favorite part...

When she's standing in the doorway while the phone rings

why?

Because it's like she's...

By standing in the door and letting the phone ring...

It's like she's keeping the outside world away for a minute

oh! See, that's when I screw up

I answer the phone and the dream ends

maybe if I didn't answer the phone she would come back

so the phone is an interruption from the outside world

yes!

Kind of like an alarm clock

maybe

okay. The phone's an alarm clock

are you going somewhere with this?

Well, in the dream she doesn't pick up the phone

she savors the moment

right

you hear the alarm clock in the morning what happens?

I turn it off

yes, but what do you want to do?

Go back to sleep

why don't you?

Because if I don't get up I'll fall back to sleep...

And be late for work

but you just want a few more moments of sleep. Just a few

no. You'd have to reset the entire alarm...

And the setting mechanism isn't that... precise

what would solve the problem then?

You'd have to turn the alarm off and it would go off again...

Automatically a few minutes later

sounds simple enough

so you could get a little snooze

a snooze alarm it's like a different button

it turns the alarm off for like seven minutes

that'd be great. That would be great!

A snooze alarm. The snooze alarm.

Wouldn't you want one of those?

Yes, I actually think I would

I would. This is good I thought of that

this could be something the snooze alarm

Samson, the alarm clock of your dreams right?

Sounds like... one of those good ideas

I have to tell Cecelia

can I get up now?

Absolutely

feeling better?

Yes. I am

good. I feel as if we accomplished something

I hope you feel as if we accomplished something today

- it's a good feeling - it's good

yep. I do thank you

no need to thank me the work is its own reward

days like today I just feel incredibly fortunate

- you look spent - yes

breakthroughs can be exhausting

why?

I feel really tired all of a sudden

you all right?

I just feel like I could lay down again

you have some time left on your... hour

lie down, and I can...

That would be great

thank you

Nick, are you up?

You must have hit the snooze alarm a half a dozen times

it's becoming a ritual, Nick

what?

What?

Promise me you'll talk to hal about his hair today

I gotta go

Hal...

Can I level with you?

We can't...

We can't go into Samson with this

we can't pitch this we can't present this...

Coz we don't have anything

there's nothing new

Nick, we worked very hard on this...

And I like to think we've accomplished something

don't you feel like we accomplished something?

Idont

well, neither do I

it's a nightmare, isn't it?

We're living in the shadow of the frigging snooze alarm

I mean, where do you go from there?

What?

Cloe

why do we have to pollute the air with all these fucking words?

You're the one who's talking

- I'm talking... - You're talkinngo you it's always my fault...

But whose fault is it that things have started to cool off?

What are you talking about? Desire?

You bet

I try to stay away from desire

you're always ready to satisfy it

why don't you just admit that it's over

at least it will all be clear...

And we'll know what to do

and you've always said... It's only a matter of saying it

isn't it what it is?

Answer me

okay

can we move now?

Thank you very much

They're singing

How come we've never been here before?

We haven't been paying much attention

about anything...

That's right

You just can't remember the good times can you?

What do you want me to remember? The sun? The moon?

Don't tell me you've suddenly become romantic

I do all I can to not get stuck in the past

I work at it

what I remember is not a day like today

I remember clouds, clouds, clouds...

And the sort of melancholy that comes with the ending of summer

because I don't want to feel sad...

Sometimes I just laugh for no reason

laugh!

- Hello - hello

- can I take two apples for the horse? - Help yourself

Do you know that girl?

Who?

That one that just came up...

That girl is the girl who lives at the other tower

I've always loved this place

but with you here, it oppresses me

if you're looking for space...

There is plenty around

Don't you ever dare to talk to me like that, you asshole!

- Yeah? - Yes!

How do you spend your fucking days bickering...

Not giving me any sex!

What sex do you want?

There is nothing there. Sex is not...

This mud is disgusting and I get caught in it every time

it's funny, isn't it?

You're always looking for purity...

And you end up in shit

see... I can't help it I just love all this mud

you love it?

Then you stay in it!

Are you looking for something inside there?

Yes

I like... I like old things

but I'm young...

I like that too

Is this an invitation?

I hope you don't mind the chaos

what kind of chaos?

Total chaos...

From far off I thought I knew you

and?

And you're another

this other...

Who's he?

He's a saxophone player

on the beach, I saw two butterflies

they followed me

I think you saw one of them too

no, I didn't

anyway, one came in with us

do you want us to go look for it?

No... I think it's a message

a message

a message about two people meeting?

I'm cold

Hello

hello

hi there...!

What would happen if I lay down too?

I'll tell you my name

My name is Linda

- Bye... - Bye...

Hello...

Where are you?

I'm at the beach the horses have run away again

I have to get them back to the house

I'm watching the snowfall

where?

In Paris

I can't hear you. Where are you?

I'm in Paris

is it snowing already there?

I wish it would snow here too

cloe, if you're saying that...

It means that you want me to be there with you

I've always wanted you to be there with me...

When love doesn't end but your attitude...

Hello? I'm losing you. God damn it!

I said, it's your attitude!

Our attitude... Are we supposed to change it?

You might let it go

I think it's just about recognition

coming home

everything is so damn white here

this snow should be calming me down but it's making me anxious

then it will be an ideal companion for you today

a hug from me

me too

Let's go
