Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:06,999 --> 00:00:08,167
- I don't give a fuck.
2
00:00:08,167 --> 00:00:10,530
I'm 78 fuckin' years old.
3
00:00:10,530 --> 00:00:12,730
Why should I put up with this shit?
4
00:00:12,730 --> 00:00:15,103
You're gonna make no
difference whatsoever.
5
00:00:15,103 --> 00:00:19,004
'Cause the only thing that we'll
ultimately come to is that,
6
00:00:19,004 --> 00:00:22,595
"Well, this guy's been
fuckin' crazy all his life."
7
00:00:22,595 --> 00:00:23,428
You know?
8
00:00:23,428 --> 00:00:24,261
- That's not true.
9
00:00:24,261 --> 00:00:25,419
- Eh, of course it is.
- That'll humanize it.
10
00:00:25,419 --> 00:00:26,954
- No, it will not humanize it.
11
00:00:26,954 --> 00:00:27,850
- Yes, that'll make people und-
12
00:00:27,850 --> 00:00:28,724
- That's your opinion, Ben.
13
00:00:28,724 --> 00:00:30,047
It ain't mine.
14
00:00:30,047 --> 00:00:31,319
- Well, but I don't understand.
15
00:00:31,319 --> 00:00:32,223
Movie's about me following you.
16
00:00:32,223 --> 00:00:33,286
- Don't, don't, don't, don't.
17
00:00:33,286 --> 00:00:34,119
Come on.
18
00:00:34,119 --> 00:00:34,952
Don't, don't tell me this shit, please.
19
00:00:34,952 --> 00:00:35,785
- You know what this is.
20
00:00:35,785 --> 00:00:36,618
This is about who you are
21
00:00:36,618 --> 00:00:37,473
and what your past experiences have been
22
00:00:37,473 --> 00:00:39,363
and what you've learned.
23
00:00:39,363 --> 00:00:40,484
- Oh, well, like, sure.
24
00:00:40,484 --> 00:00:41,317
You want to talk about me?
25
00:00:41,317 --> 00:00:42,236
- Yeah.
- Oh, wonderful.
26
00:00:42,236 --> 00:00:43,404
- I'm trying to talk about you,
27
00:00:43,404 --> 00:00:44,333
and you're not letting me talk-
28
00:00:44,333 --> 00:00:46,075
- Yeah, well, I don't.
29
00:00:46,075 --> 00:00:47,323
- Why not?
30
00:00:47,323 --> 00:00:48,742
That's what I'm asking you.
31
00:00:48,742 --> 00:00:49,741
That's what I don't understand.
32
00:00:49,741 --> 00:00:51,914
- Ben, if you don't like it, pack up.
33
00:00:51,914 --> 00:00:53,331
Get the fuck out.
34
00:01:00,546 --> 00:01:02,506
- My introduction
to Jack Rebney came
35
00:01:02,506 --> 00:01:04,488
in the form of a VHS tape,
36
00:01:04,488 --> 00:01:06,052
a bootleg compilation of outtakes
37
00:01:06,052 --> 00:01:09,552
from a Winnebago sales video made in 1989.
38
00:01:12,119 --> 00:01:14,426
- All right, here we go.
39
00:01:14,426 --> 00:01:15,684
That, like, what do you mean?
40
00:01:15,684 --> 00:01:16,862
I gotta be able to move.
41
00:01:16,862 --> 00:01:18,508
That's crazy.
42
00:01:18,508 --> 00:01:19,425
Here we go.
43
00:01:27,624 --> 00:01:30,231
The Winnebago concepts and
engineering departments
44
00:01:30,231 --> 00:01:32,666
have developed a multifunctional bathroom,
45
00:01:32,666 --> 00:01:35,186
privacy, I don't even know
what the fuck I'm reading.
46
00:01:35,186 --> 00:01:38,123
I wonder what the fuck
the real dialogue is?
47
00:01:38,123 --> 00:01:39,528
What the fuck is this thing?
48
00:01:39,528 --> 00:01:42,082
All of the windshield, for fuck's sake.
49
00:01:42,082 --> 00:01:42,957
Oh, fuck.
50
00:01:42,957 --> 00:01:44,411
That didn't sound for shit, did it?
51
00:01:44,411 --> 00:01:45,575
Well, what we're doing is
52
00:01:45,575 --> 00:01:48,097
we're building a fucking industrial film,
53
00:01:48,097 --> 00:01:49,713
trying to give these guys
everything they can get.
54
00:01:49,713 --> 00:01:50,546
I mean, that's it.
55
00:01:50,546 --> 00:01:51,541
Fuck it.
56
00:01:51,541 --> 00:01:52,734
Handle is going to be very helpful
57
00:01:52,734 --> 00:01:54,434
in keeping you from falling down,
58
00:01:54,434 --> 00:01:56,870
you big, dumb son of a bitch!
59
00:01:56,870 --> 00:01:58,042
Oh, fuck!
60
00:01:58,042 --> 00:01:59,312
Fuck.
61
00:01:59,312 --> 00:02:00,290
Fuck.
62
00:02:00,290 --> 00:02:01,123
Fuck.
63
00:02:01,123 --> 00:02:01,956
Fuck!
64
00:02:01,956 --> 00:02:02,789
Oh, fuck.
65
00:02:02,789 --> 00:02:03,622
Shit!
66
00:02:03,622 --> 00:02:04,900
Tony, do me a favor, will you, please?
67
00:02:04,900 --> 00:02:05,733
Will you?
68
00:02:05,733 --> 00:02:06,923
Will you do me a kindness?
69
00:02:06,923 --> 00:02:07,756
- Leave?
70
00:02:07,756 --> 00:02:08,589
- Yeah.
71
00:02:08,589 --> 00:02:09,422
- I didn't want to be walking in and out
72
00:02:09,422 --> 00:02:11,208
if you're going to fuck up, and I got to-
73
00:02:11,208 --> 00:02:14,610
- I don't, make any difference
to me at this juncture.
74
00:02:14,610 --> 00:02:15,608
Thank you very much.
75
00:02:15,608 --> 00:02:16,909
I appreciate that, Tony.
76
00:02:16,909 --> 00:02:19,242
Don't slam the fucking door.
77
00:02:21,129 --> 00:02:21,962
No more!
78
00:02:24,287 --> 00:02:26,707
- I was immediately mesmerized.
79
00:02:26,707 --> 00:02:29,726
I played it over and over again.
80
00:02:29,726 --> 00:02:31,358
Who was this guy,
81
00:02:31,358 --> 00:02:33,784
and where did this come from?
82
00:02:33,784 --> 00:02:35,466
I decided to find out.
83
00:03:29,227 --> 00:03:30,727
- Meet innovation.
84
00:03:32,086 --> 00:03:33,217
Money.
85
00:03:34,252 --> 00:03:35,468
What the fuck was that?
86
00:03:35,468 --> 00:03:36,989
Son of a bitch!
87
00:03:36,989 --> 00:03:38,954
I got to read it again because my mind
88
00:03:38,954 --> 00:03:41,665
is just a piece of shit this morning.
89
00:03:41,665 --> 00:03:43,594
- Oh, I've seen this before.
90
00:03:43,594 --> 00:03:44,598
Uh-huh.
91
00:03:44,598 --> 00:03:46,578
- Oh, I've seen this, like,
hundreds of times, man.
92
00:03:46,578 --> 00:03:50,397
This guy's, I mean, like a
legend, basically, I mean-
93
00:03:50,397 --> 00:03:51,860
- Soon after I got the tape,
94
00:03:51,860 --> 00:03:53,280
I found out that I wasn't the only one
95
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,738
fascinated with Jack Rebney.
96
00:03:55,738 --> 00:03:57,555
- I don't think I can remember
the first time I've seen it,
97
00:03:57,555 --> 00:03:59,961
'cause I've seen it, you
know, several hundreds times,
98
00:03:59,961 --> 00:04:02,113
so it sort of all blurs together.
99
00:04:02,113 --> 00:04:04,310
- I started, like, bringing
it everywhere in my backpack
100
00:04:04,310 --> 00:04:05,496
just to, like, put it on.
101
00:04:05,496 --> 00:04:06,517
Like, I'd show it to someone
102
00:04:06,517 --> 00:04:07,733
and then I wouldn't see them for a year,
103
00:04:07,733 --> 00:04:09,655
and I'd see them, and
they'd go, "No more!"
104
00:04:09,655 --> 00:04:11,953
- You'd come upon
someone that had seen it,
105
00:04:11,953 --> 00:04:14,156
and you speak the same language,
you just start quoting,
106
00:04:14,156 --> 00:04:16,019
"My mind is a piece of shit this morning.
107
00:04:16,019 --> 00:04:17,227
I'm blinded by this hot light."
108
00:04:17,227 --> 00:04:20,298
- I'm blinded by that fucking hot light.
109
00:04:20,298 --> 00:04:24,410
- Commercials are meant to
be these picture-perfect,
110
00:04:24,410 --> 00:04:26,514
pristine things-
111
00:04:26,514 --> 00:04:27,548
- Why can't I remember?
112
00:04:27,548 --> 00:04:28,552
I wrote this stuff!
113
00:04:28,552 --> 00:04:29,794
Why can't I remember it?
114
00:04:29,794 --> 00:04:31,202
- With everything being scripted
115
00:04:31,202 --> 00:04:35,387
and every composition
being carefully composed.
116
00:04:35,387 --> 00:04:38,513
It's our chance to look
behind the curtain.
117
00:04:38,513 --> 00:04:39,814
- It's a real moment, you know.
118
00:04:39,814 --> 00:04:41,257
Like, what you see on that tape
119
00:04:41,257 --> 00:04:43,553
is probably the worst
day of this guy's life.
120
00:04:43,553 --> 00:04:45,451
- I don't want any more bullshit,
121
00:04:45,451 --> 00:04:47,445
any time during the day,
122
00:04:47,445 --> 00:04:48,324
from anyone,
123
00:04:48,324 --> 00:04:49,771
that includes me.
124
00:04:49,771 --> 00:04:51,855
- It was probably
intended to be destroyed.
125
00:04:51,855 --> 00:04:54,158
- Every friend I played it
to instantly would take it,
126
00:04:54,158 --> 00:04:55,751
copy it, give it back.
127
00:04:55,751 --> 00:04:56,827
- If you loved the tape,
128
00:04:56,827 --> 00:04:58,956
you would make as many dubs as you could
129
00:04:58,956 --> 00:05:00,755
and give it out to everybody you can.
130
00:05:00,755 --> 00:05:03,526
- It moves like a virus.
131
00:05:03,526 --> 00:05:04,629
- For almost 20 years,
132
00:05:04,629 --> 00:05:06,504
VHS tapes were passed hand-to-hand
133
00:05:06,504 --> 00:05:08,629
all over the country.
134
00:05:08,629 --> 00:05:11,363
The tapes were copied and copied
and copied until the images
135
00:05:11,363 --> 00:05:14,083
were so degraded that by
the time I got a tape,
136
00:05:14,083 --> 00:05:16,158
it looked like this.
137
00:05:16,158 --> 00:05:16,991
- Just keep running.
138
00:05:16,991 --> 00:05:17,824
Bullshit.
139
00:05:17,824 --> 00:05:19,411
I'm going to slate this fucker.
140
00:05:19,411 --> 00:05:22,093
All right, I haven't got time
to mark this motherfucker.
141
00:05:22,093 --> 00:05:22,926
Here we go again.
142
00:05:22,926 --> 00:05:23,759
We can't hear anybody.
143
00:05:23,759 --> 00:05:26,487
Nobody can talk to anybody.
144
00:05:26,487 --> 00:05:28,449
- I couldn't stop watching it.
145
00:05:28,449 --> 00:05:30,725
I started showing it
whenever I got the chance.
146
00:05:33,165 --> 00:05:34,379
I'd show it on first dates.
147
00:05:34,379 --> 00:05:35,212
- Son of a bitch.
148
00:05:35,212 --> 00:05:36,972
- I showed to my grandmother.
149
00:05:36,972 --> 00:05:38,481
- What the fuck was that?
150
00:05:38,481 --> 00:05:40,329
- I even played it
for the film class I teach
151
00:05:40,329 --> 00:05:42,029
at the university of Texas.
152
00:05:42,029 --> 00:05:43,067
- I've got to read it again
153
00:05:43,067 --> 00:05:45,557
because my mind is just a
piece of shit this morning.
154
00:05:47,411 --> 00:05:49,744
- I'd become obsessed.
155
00:05:51,270 --> 00:05:53,586
I felt bad for the guy.
156
00:05:53,586 --> 00:05:56,932
But that didn't take away from
how much I loved the clip.
157
00:05:56,932 --> 00:05:59,649
His unrestrained anger
was somehow liberating,
158
00:05:59,649 --> 00:06:03,309
and it reminded me of every
bad shoot I'd ever worked on.
159
00:06:03,309 --> 00:06:07,208
In moments of frustration,
I'd find myself quoting Jack,
160
00:06:07,208 --> 00:06:08,693
and at the end of a bad day,
161
00:06:08,693 --> 00:06:12,153
I'd come home and pop in the tape.
162
00:06:12,153 --> 00:06:14,465
Then in 2005, YouTube came along,
163
00:06:14,465 --> 00:06:18,329
and Jack became a viral video phenomenon.
164
00:06:18,329 --> 00:06:21,911
He became known as the
Winnebago Man, the RV Guy,
165
00:06:21,911 --> 00:06:25,908
or most outrageously, the
Angriest Man in the World.
166
00:06:25,908 --> 00:06:27,991
- Goddamn son of a bitch!
167
00:06:28,841 --> 00:06:29,847
What do you mean?
168
00:06:29,847 --> 00:06:31,987
What, am I going to fall
off the fucking thing?
169
00:06:31,987 --> 00:06:32,820
Fuck off!
170
00:06:32,820 --> 00:06:34,546
- And the outtakes
were ranked by VH1
171
00:06:34,546 --> 00:06:37,783
as the third best viral video.
172
00:06:37,783 --> 00:06:40,703
References to Jack started
showing up everywhere.
173
00:06:40,703 --> 00:06:42,395
- Tony, do me a favor, will you, please?
174
00:06:42,395 --> 00:06:43,228
Will you?
175
00:06:43,228 --> 00:06:44,501
Will you do me a kindness?
176
00:06:44,501 --> 00:06:47,092
- Would you, uh, do me a kindness?
177
00:06:47,092 --> 00:06:49,805
- Look, kids, do me a
favor, will you, please?
178
00:06:49,805 --> 00:06:50,638
Will you?
179
00:06:50,638 --> 00:06:52,402
Will you do me a kindness?
180
00:06:52,402 --> 00:06:54,499
- What does the goddamn line say, Tony?
181
00:06:54,499 --> 00:06:55,332
- Line.
182
00:06:56,291 --> 00:06:57,394
What's the first line?
183
00:06:57,394 --> 00:06:58,805
- I don't give a what the line is.
184
00:06:58,805 --> 00:07:00,705
- If I ask for the line
again, don't tell me.
185
00:07:00,705 --> 00:07:01,538
Line.
186
00:07:02,434 --> 00:07:06,399
- I don't want any more bullshit
any time during the day,
187
00:07:06,399 --> 00:07:07,232
from anyone,
188
00:07:07,232 --> 00:07:08,535
That includes me.
189
00:07:08,535 --> 00:07:10,785
- Any bullcrap from anyone,
190
00:07:11,714 --> 00:07:12,547
including me.
191
00:07:22,409 --> 00:07:23,242
- Jesus Christ.
192
00:07:23,242 --> 00:07:24,492
Fuck off!
193
00:07:24,492 --> 00:07:26,492
God damn son of a bitch.
194
00:07:27,556 --> 00:07:28,389
- Friends in Hollywood
195
00:07:28,389 --> 00:07:31,142
told me how Jack had become
a kind of hero on film sets,
196
00:07:31,142 --> 00:07:36,142
with actors and crew members
quoting him to each other.
197
00:07:36,287 --> 00:07:38,944
There's even a painting of Jack as Shrek
198
00:07:38,944 --> 00:07:43,277
that hangs in the Dreamworks
animation headquarters.
199
00:07:45,667 --> 00:07:47,170
But where was Jack?
200
00:07:47,170 --> 00:07:51,687
And how was all this
notoriety affecting him?
201
00:07:51,687 --> 00:07:55,048
So one night, I began
searching around on Google.
202
00:07:55,048 --> 00:07:56,667
After sifting through countless pages
203
00:07:56,667 --> 00:07:58,413
of blog entries and fan sites,
204
00:07:58,413 --> 00:08:02,150
I came across an obscure
posting on a sailing website,
205
00:08:02,150 --> 00:08:05,733
simply signed, "Jack
Rebney, Planet Earth."
206
00:08:07,126 --> 00:08:09,171
- I'm looking for a boat.
207
00:08:09,171 --> 00:08:12,311
I need a boat of approximately
50 feet in length
208
00:08:12,311 --> 00:08:14,764
and some 6'6" of headroom,
209
00:08:14,764 --> 00:08:16,767
as I am set upon a couple of years
210
00:08:16,767 --> 00:08:19,547
living out this life-long dream.
211
00:08:19,547 --> 00:08:21,439
It's true that I'm very old
212
00:08:21,439 --> 00:08:22,908
but also still capable
213
00:08:22,908 --> 00:08:26,943
of making any yacht
sing her peculiar song.
214
00:08:26,943 --> 00:08:30,606
I can fix just about anything
except electronic devices,
215
00:08:30,606 --> 00:08:34,326
which are clearly the work of the devil.
216
00:08:34,326 --> 00:08:36,211
In short, I would love an oyster,
217
00:08:36,211 --> 00:08:38,344
but I can only afford crackers.
218
00:08:38,344 --> 00:08:39,348
But go ahead.
219
00:08:39,348 --> 00:08:41,699
Walk out on that limb
by listing four boats
220
00:08:41,699 --> 00:08:43,406
from 40 to 50-plus feet
221
00:08:43,406 --> 00:08:47,073
upon which you could
set sail for Kiribati."
222
00:08:48,665 --> 00:08:50,982
- That strange letter
was the only trace of Jack
223
00:08:50,982 --> 00:08:54,882
beyond the infamous Winnebago Man clip.
224
00:08:54,882 --> 00:08:57,338
Was Jack out at sea?
225
00:08:57,338 --> 00:09:02,338
Was he sailing to Kiribati to
get away from fans like me?
226
00:09:02,521 --> 00:09:04,960
Or was he just living a
normal life somewhere,
227
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:09,210
unaware that he had become
a new kind of celebrity?
228
00:09:43,197 --> 00:09:44,364
- Jesus, stop!
229
00:09:46,149 --> 00:09:47,595
It hurts!
230
00:09:47,595 --> 00:09:48,948
It hurts!
231
00:09:48,948 --> 00:09:50,104
It hurts.
232
00:09:50,104 --> 00:09:51,569
- But this isn't
exactly the kind of attention
233
00:09:51,569 --> 00:09:53,402
that most people want.
234
00:09:54,638 --> 00:09:56,308
One of the most-watched Internet videos
235
00:09:56,308 --> 00:09:59,225
of all time is the "Star Wars" kid.
236
00:10:06,432 --> 00:10:09,190
In 2002 Ghyslain Raza
made a video of himself
237
00:10:09,190 --> 00:10:11,808
at his high school, swinging
a golf ball retriever
238
00:10:11,808 --> 00:10:15,830
as if he was fighting with a light saber.
239
00:10:15,830 --> 00:10:18,628
Another student discovered
the video and posted it online
240
00:10:18,628 --> 00:10:21,378
where it caught fire immediately.
241
00:10:24,991 --> 00:10:26,485
The clip was seen by millions,
242
00:10:26,485 --> 00:10:27,510
and people all over the world
243
00:10:27,510 --> 00:10:29,558
began making conversions of it,
244
00:10:29,558 --> 00:10:32,244
adding music, special effects,
245
00:10:32,244 --> 00:10:34,120
and combining it with
other well-known films.
246
00:10:48,487 --> 00:10:50,890
But Ghyslain was humiliated.
247
00:10:50,890 --> 00:10:52,841
The attention and teasing were so extreme
248
00:10:52,841 --> 00:10:56,165
that he was put into a
psychiatric hospital.
249
00:10:56,165 --> 00:10:58,765
His family filed a lawsuit
against four of his classmates
250
00:10:58,765 --> 00:11:01,932
and settled out of court for $250,000.
251
00:11:03,112 --> 00:11:07,397
The harassment of Raza created
the term cyber-bullying.
252
00:11:07,397 --> 00:11:09,672
But this isn't just kids being cruel.
253
00:11:09,672 --> 00:11:10,689
In some cases,
254
00:11:10,689 --> 00:11:12,320
it's as if there's a digital tarring
255
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:13,476
and feathering going on,
256
00:11:13,476 --> 00:11:16,071
like the story of Aleksay Vayner.
257
00:11:16,071 --> 00:11:17,654
- To be successful,
258
00:11:18,491 --> 00:11:22,447
you must first know exactly
what you want to achieve.
259
00:11:22,447 --> 00:11:23,655
- Aleksay was a Yale student
260
00:11:23,655 --> 00:11:25,658
applying for a job in finance
261
00:11:25,658 --> 00:11:27,994
who added a link to this
video on his resume.
262
00:11:27,994 --> 00:11:29,434
- To achieve success,
263
00:11:29,434 --> 00:11:33,149
you must first conceive
it and believe in it.
264
00:11:33,149 --> 00:11:35,922
- He'd made it as a
tribute to his judo master.
265
00:11:35,922 --> 00:11:37,665
- Remember, impossible
266
00:11:39,401 --> 00:11:40,318
is nothing.
267
00:11:41,415 --> 00:11:42,986
- It was leaked online,
268
00:11:42,986 --> 00:11:46,356
and Aleksay became a laughingstock.
269
00:11:46,356 --> 00:11:49,682
But he was easy to find through his blog.
270
00:11:49,682 --> 00:11:52,178
- In the end of those first few weeks,
271
00:11:52,178 --> 00:11:54,595
I received over 7,000 emails,
272
00:11:56,201 --> 00:11:59,117
anywhere from just people
making fun of the video
273
00:11:59,117 --> 00:12:02,697
to, you know, to some
people wanting to kill me,
274
00:12:02,697 --> 00:12:03,780
to deport me.
275
00:12:04,830 --> 00:12:06,533
Ignore the losers.
276
00:12:06,533 --> 00:12:09,215
Bring your A game, your determination,
277
00:12:09,215 --> 00:12:11,077
and your drive to the field,
278
00:12:11,077 --> 00:12:13,184
and the success will follow you.
279
00:12:13,184 --> 00:12:14,768
- You have to ignore the losers.
280
00:12:14,768 --> 00:12:18,294
You have to bring your
determination and your A game
281
00:12:18,294 --> 00:12:20,011
and your drive to the field,
282
00:12:20,011 --> 00:12:21,687
and success will follow.
283
00:12:21,687 --> 00:12:22,926
Does this just go on?
284
00:12:22,926 --> 00:12:23,759
- Yeah, yeah.
285
00:12:23,759 --> 00:12:25,544
- And success will follow wherever you go,
286
00:12:25,544 --> 00:12:27,473
wherever you need to go.
287
00:12:27,473 --> 00:12:29,097
- You see the Michael cera parody?
288
00:12:29,097 --> 00:12:29,930
- Yeah.
289
00:12:29,930 --> 00:12:31,275
Yeah, of course I saw it.
290
00:12:31,275 --> 00:12:32,271
- What'd you think of it?
291
00:12:32,271 --> 00:12:34,401
- Takes some time to come to terms
292
00:12:34,401 --> 00:12:36,626
with the fact that this
is part of your life.
293
00:12:36,626 --> 00:12:38,748
This is going to be part of your history.
294
00:12:38,748 --> 00:12:40,403
Viral videos are a phenomenon.
295
00:12:40,403 --> 00:12:44,903
It was, you know, in my case,
it was very unfortunate.
296
00:12:46,205 --> 00:12:47,927
- If Jack's experience
has been anything like
297
00:12:47,927 --> 00:12:50,668
the "Star Wars" kid or Aleksay Vayner,
298
00:12:50,668 --> 00:12:54,602
it's no surprise that
he's nowhere to be found.
299
00:12:54,602 --> 00:12:57,510
- What these clips usually have in common
300
00:12:57,510 --> 00:13:01,677
is the degree to which
they humiliate the subject.
301
00:13:03,361 --> 00:13:04,867
- This is Douglas Rushkoff,
302
00:13:04,867 --> 00:13:08,399
a media expert who coined
the term viral video.
303
00:13:08,399 --> 00:13:12,482
- There's the joy of
watching another human being
304
00:13:14,036 --> 00:13:15,916
be humiliated, you know,
305
00:13:15,916 --> 00:13:18,045
that, sort of that Roman spectacle,
306
00:13:18,045 --> 00:13:20,759
torture of another person.
307
00:13:20,759 --> 00:13:21,780
- Why can't I remember?
308
00:13:21,780 --> 00:13:22,613
I wrote this stuff.
309
00:13:22,613 --> 00:13:23,764
Why can't I remember it?
310
00:13:24,890 --> 00:13:27,726
- You know, your original
interest in this guy
311
00:13:27,726 --> 00:13:28,820
was the classic,
312
00:13:28,820 --> 00:13:30,219
"Oh, my god, what a buffoon!
313
00:13:30,219 --> 00:13:31,218
Look what he's doing."
314
00:13:31,218 --> 00:13:32,176
But as a filmmaker,
315
00:13:32,176 --> 00:13:34,315
someone who thinks about these things,
316
00:13:34,315 --> 00:13:37,504
you know, you start to
think, who is this guy?
317
00:13:37,504 --> 00:13:38,584
What happened to him?
318
00:13:38,584 --> 00:13:40,923
What did this experience do to him?
319
00:13:40,923 --> 00:13:41,756
- Fuck.
320
00:13:43,222 --> 00:13:45,444
Not even funny any more.
321
00:13:45,444 --> 00:13:49,281
- You're paying the price
for our collective, you know,
322
00:13:49,281 --> 00:13:52,298
cultural guilt at having
humiliated this person.
323
00:13:52,298 --> 00:13:53,602
You're going back and finding,
324
00:13:53,602 --> 00:13:55,435
"Well, what happened?"
325
00:14:03,325 --> 00:14:05,941
- If I'm going to find
Jack, I need some leads.
326
00:14:05,941 --> 00:14:08,495
So I visit Charlie
Sotelo and Cinco Barnes,
327
00:14:08,495 --> 00:14:09,864
who years before YouTube
328
00:14:09,864 --> 00:14:13,697
hosted a TV show featuring
underground videos.
329
00:14:15,234 --> 00:14:16,151
- Oh!
330
00:14:17,020 --> 00:14:18,477
- They were among
the first to discover
331
00:14:18,477 --> 00:14:20,255
the Winnebago Man tape.
332
00:14:20,255 --> 00:14:23,094
- Now, the first time I got
it, I had no idea what it was.
333
00:14:23,094 --> 00:14:25,672
I just, you know, literally,
just like everything else,
334
00:14:25,672 --> 00:14:27,920
just kind of put the
tape in, you watch it,
335
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:29,696
and the first time you see it
336
00:14:29,696 --> 00:14:31,632
is the first you ever hear of anything.
337
00:14:31,632 --> 00:14:33,048
'Cause a lot of these
clips come with, like,
338
00:14:33,048 --> 00:14:34,066
handwritten notes.
339
00:14:34,066 --> 00:14:36,376
You know, people write,
like, you know, "Winneba,"
340
00:14:36,376 --> 00:14:39,297
it would be something like,
"Winnebago Guy, Angry Guy
341
00:14:39,297 --> 00:14:41,412
Making a Film About Winnebagos,"
342
00:14:41,412 --> 00:14:42,810
and that's all you'd get.
343
00:14:42,810 --> 00:14:44,766
- Charlie tells me he
was sent an even longer version
344
00:14:44,766 --> 00:14:46,588
of the Winnebago Man clip
345
00:14:46,588 --> 00:14:49,300
with almost 10 more minutes of footage.
346
00:14:49,300 --> 00:14:50,686
- Accoutrement that you will need.
347
00:14:50,686 --> 00:14:51,606
Accoutrement?
348
00:14:51,606 --> 00:14:52,626
What is that shit?
349
00:14:52,626 --> 00:14:55,302
Get out of here, you fucking flies.
350
00:14:55,302 --> 00:14:56,474
- I'm in heaven,
351
00:14:56,474 --> 00:14:58,131
but whoever mailed Charlie this tape
352
00:14:58,131 --> 00:15:01,297
didn't include a return address.
353
00:15:01,297 --> 00:15:03,798
Have you guys ever tried
to find Jack or anyone else
354
00:15:03,798 --> 00:15:05,127
in your videos?
355
00:15:05,127 --> 00:15:06,617
- Well, I guess the ultimate
question would be why?
356
00:15:06,617 --> 00:15:08,106
Why would we want to do that?
357
00:15:08,106 --> 00:15:09,504
- You see, I never got obsessed enough
358
00:15:09,504 --> 00:15:10,584
to do things like that.
359
00:15:10,584 --> 00:15:11,620
- It destroys the whole illusion.
360
00:15:11,620 --> 00:15:12,722
This is to be watched.
361
00:15:12,722 --> 00:15:13,932
This is a cage.
362
00:15:13,932 --> 00:15:15,242
It's something on the other side.
363
00:15:15,242 --> 00:15:17,469
I have no interest at all
in getting to the person,
364
00:15:17,469 --> 00:15:18,968
and I don't want the reality of it.
365
00:15:18,968 --> 00:15:22,215
I want to see the buffoon
on stage performing for me.
366
00:15:22,215 --> 00:15:23,552
You know, like the guy who falls
367
00:15:23,552 --> 00:15:25,241
and breaks his back or whatever.
368
00:15:25,241 --> 00:15:28,526
- Hey, hey, people,
welcome back to the show.
369
00:15:28,526 --> 00:15:29,373
Yoooo!
370
00:15:35,399 --> 00:15:38,046
- It's funny when you don't know him.
371
00:15:38,046 --> 00:15:39,229
The EMTs that show up there
372
00:15:39,229 --> 00:15:40,448
and have to set all those bones,
373
00:15:40,448 --> 00:15:41,772
have to tell the family or whatever,
374
00:15:41,772 --> 00:15:43,342
I mean, that's tragic for them.
375
00:15:43,342 --> 00:15:45,253
But for us, it's just those 30 seconds,
376
00:15:45,253 --> 00:15:47,423
you know, of that awful, awful mistake
377
00:15:47,423 --> 00:15:49,014
and makes us reflect on shit
378
00:15:49,014 --> 00:15:50,642
that we hopefully will never do.
379
00:15:50,642 --> 00:15:52,604
- That's really, that's
kind of the allure of it.
380
00:15:52,604 --> 00:15:56,050
You don't know anything
except industrial film,
381
00:15:56,050 --> 00:15:57,149
angry guy screaming.
382
00:15:57,149 --> 00:15:57,982
Let's go.
383
00:15:57,982 --> 00:15:58,815
Play it.
384
00:15:58,815 --> 00:16:01,482
And that's all you need to know.
385
00:16:02,443 --> 00:16:05,063
- Yeah, there's no reason to know the guy.
386
00:16:05,063 --> 00:16:07,563
No, that really spoils it all.
387
00:16:08,613 --> 00:16:13,613
- Jack Rebney would be the
holy grail of stars to meet
388
00:16:13,733 --> 00:16:17,055
from these videos that we
have obsessed over for years.
389
00:16:18,707 --> 00:16:20,125
- I head to New York
to meet the co-founders
390
00:16:20,125 --> 00:16:21,983
of the Found Footage Festival.
391
00:16:21,983 --> 00:16:22,859
- I'm Joe.
392
00:16:22,859 --> 00:16:23,982
- My name's Nick.
393
00:16:23,982 --> 00:16:24,815
- Who are known for finding
394
00:16:24,815 --> 00:16:26,036
the people on these videos.
395
00:16:26,036 --> 00:16:29,410
- So here now are the
outtakes of Jack Rebney,
396
00:16:29,410 --> 00:16:31,667
the world's angriest RV salesman.
397
00:16:31,667 --> 00:16:32,500
- Jack Rebney!
398
00:16:32,500 --> 00:16:33,333
Here we go.
399
00:16:33,333 --> 00:16:34,166
- I wrote this stuff!
400
00:16:34,166 --> 00:16:35,102
Why can't I remember it?
401
00:16:35,935 --> 00:16:38,046
- We've always wanted to
have Jack on this thing,
402
00:16:38,046 --> 00:16:40,368
but we always just assumed he was dead.
403
00:16:40,368 --> 00:16:42,385
- I think the speculation
was that he was long-dead
404
00:16:42,385 --> 00:16:43,927
of an ulcer by now.
405
00:16:43,927 --> 00:16:45,180
- Or a heart attack or something.
406
00:16:45,180 --> 00:16:47,562
- Based on the amount of
anger in the video alone,
407
00:16:47,562 --> 00:16:49,128
we thought there's no way.
408
00:16:49,128 --> 00:16:51,381
- I mean, we did, like,
Google searches for him,
409
00:16:51,381 --> 00:16:53,830
you know, but we never
came up with anything.
410
00:16:53,830 --> 00:16:56,890
We even did, like, this
ancestry.com search for him.
411
00:16:56,890 --> 00:16:58,510
And we could never find him.
412
00:16:58,510 --> 00:17:01,243
So we just assumed he was gone.
413
00:17:05,562 --> 00:17:06,811
- With no leads,
414
00:17:06,811 --> 00:17:09,623
I decide to take a more direct approach.
415
00:17:11,970 --> 00:17:12,803
- Good morning.
416
00:17:12,803 --> 00:17:14,078
Winnebago industries.
417
00:17:14,078 --> 00:17:16,608
- Hi, I calling about
a man named Jack Rebney.
418
00:17:16,608 --> 00:17:17,441
- Okay.
419
00:17:17,441 --> 00:17:18,274
I just-
420
00:17:18,274 --> 00:17:19,453
- When I ask about the clip,
421
00:17:19,453 --> 00:17:22,068
they send me to the PR Department.
422
00:17:22,068 --> 00:17:23,728
Winnebago knows the clip,
423
00:17:23,728 --> 00:17:26,041
and they want nothing to do with it.
424
00:17:26,041 --> 00:17:26,933
In their words,
425
00:17:26,933 --> 00:17:28,631
they, quote, "want to distance themselves
426
00:17:28,631 --> 00:17:30,298
from that material."
427
00:17:31,687 --> 00:17:33,504
They've had no contact with Jack Rebney
428
00:17:33,504 --> 00:17:37,504
since he finished the
industrial videos in 1989.
429
00:17:38,548 --> 00:17:41,169
- Millions spent by Winnebago industries
430
00:17:41,169 --> 00:17:43,336
developing the motor home:
431
00:17:44,545 --> 00:17:46,212
The Itasca Sunflyer,
432
00:17:47,383 --> 00:17:50,344
the heart of our product line.
433
00:17:50,344 --> 00:17:53,230
Let us get the fuck out of here.
434
00:17:54,672 --> 00:17:55,844
- I remember the bizarre credits
435
00:17:55,844 --> 00:17:57,991
on the tape Charlie gave me.
436
00:17:57,991 --> 00:18:01,062
I managed to find Mike Welckle,
the original cameraman,
437
00:18:01,062 --> 00:18:03,779
and he leads me to the other crew members.
438
00:18:03,779 --> 00:18:06,002
It turns out they're eager
to talk about the shoot,
439
00:18:06,002 --> 00:18:08,742
so I travel to Minneapolis to meet them.
440
00:18:08,742 --> 00:18:10,002
- Oh, fuck.
441
00:18:10,002 --> 00:18:14,081
You're disturbing my,
what's left of my brain.
442
00:18:14,081 --> 00:18:15,284
- We shot in August.
443
00:18:15,284 --> 00:18:17,200
Every day was 12 and a half,
444
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,836
some were as long as 14-hour days.
445
00:18:19,836 --> 00:18:21,883
My nerves were shot.
446
00:18:21,883 --> 00:18:23,867
To try, you know, I just felt like,
447
00:18:23,867 --> 00:18:24,978
oh, how did I get through this?
448
00:18:24,978 --> 00:18:25,811
- During the shoot,
449
00:18:25,811 --> 00:18:29,691
there was a lot of getting
in really tiny little spaces
450
00:18:29,691 --> 00:18:30,941
that were dark.
451
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,280
- We had the same thing
for lunch every day.
452
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,276
- It was very taxing
for a number of reasons.
453
00:18:38,276 --> 00:18:40,674
Not, you know, how hot it was and how much
454
00:18:40,674 --> 00:18:41,952
we had to get done.
455
00:18:41,952 --> 00:18:44,074
- He was, like, a jerk all the time,
456
00:18:44,074 --> 00:18:45,429
and he was swearing all the time,
457
00:18:45,429 --> 00:18:46,524
and he was just, and, I mean, you know
458
00:18:46,524 --> 00:18:47,441
when the camera,
459
00:18:47,441 --> 00:18:49,179
I actually think when the camera was on,
460
00:18:49,179 --> 00:18:51,814
he was a little bit better behaved.
461
00:18:51,814 --> 00:18:55,554
- It was a major task just to
complete the amount of shots.
462
00:18:55,554 --> 00:18:57,859
- Six, seven, eight, 10, 12, 15.
463
00:18:57,859 --> 00:19:00,811
Some of the take numbers were outrageous.
464
00:19:00,811 --> 00:19:03,741
- The script, you were like,
"What do you think you're,
465
00:19:03,741 --> 00:19:04,758
what are you writing?"
466
00:19:04,758 --> 00:19:06,927
Like, you think you're writing,
like, you know, Shakespeare?
467
00:19:06,927 --> 00:19:07,943
- Someone once said something
468
00:19:07,943 --> 00:19:10,271
about the journey of 1000 miles
469
00:19:10,271 --> 00:19:12,584
beginning with but a single step.
470
00:19:13,417 --> 00:19:15,857
Of course, if you throw your
back out on that first step,
471
00:19:15,857 --> 00:19:17,305
you stay home.
472
00:19:17,305 --> 00:19:20,712
Tony, give me a towel for
just a minute, please.
473
00:19:22,610 --> 00:19:23,553
That-
474
00:19:24,571 --> 00:19:27,543
- Tony was an unpaid intern,
just out of high school, right?
475
00:19:27,543 --> 00:19:29,067
He had graduated that spring.
476
00:19:29,067 --> 00:19:30,693
You know, he wasn't
getting paid or wasn't,
477
00:19:30,693 --> 00:19:31,847
he wasn't a professional,
478
00:19:31,847 --> 00:19:32,781
all this kind of stuff
479
00:19:32,781 --> 00:19:34,741
that we were trying to
hold these lines on.
480
00:19:34,741 --> 00:19:36,442
Tony was sort of a free bird,
481
00:19:36,442 --> 00:19:38,683
and so he took that freedom,
482
00:19:38,683 --> 00:19:41,628
and he backtalked, and he
threw the towel back, and-
483
00:19:41,628 --> 00:19:42,461
- Tony, Tony.
484
00:19:42,461 --> 00:19:43,294
Tony, Tony.
485
00:19:43,294 --> 00:19:44,425
Tony.
486
00:19:44,425 --> 00:19:45,798
Tony, Tony.
487
00:19:45,798 --> 00:19:47,300
Tony, Tony.
488
00:19:47,300 --> 00:19:48,586
Tony, Tone.
489
00:19:48,586 --> 00:19:50,026
Tony, get me a battery.
490
00:19:50,026 --> 00:19:51,389
Tony, open the door.
491
00:19:51,389 --> 00:19:52,677
Bring the slate in.
492
00:19:52,677 --> 00:19:54,875
Tony, just bring it in here now.
493
00:19:54,875 --> 00:19:55,859
Stand still, Tony.
494
00:19:55,859 --> 00:19:57,258
Get me a battery, Tony.
495
00:19:57,258 --> 00:19:58,334
Open the door, Tony.
496
00:19:58,334 --> 00:19:59,167
Tony.
497
00:19:59,167 --> 00:20:00,533
It's the wrong angle, babe.
498
00:20:00,533 --> 00:20:01,984
Tony, please back up.
499
00:20:01,984 --> 00:20:03,532
Tony, where's the slate?
500
00:20:03,532 --> 00:20:04,365
- You know,
501
00:20:04,365 --> 00:20:07,296
this kind of does make me
look like an idiot though.
502
00:20:07,296 --> 00:20:09,183
I was much thinner and trimmer then.
503
00:20:10,661 --> 00:20:12,084
- God, I can't fucking-
504
00:20:12,084 --> 00:20:14,553
- Make my mind work.
505
00:20:14,553 --> 00:20:15,687
You know, Jack brings a smile
506
00:20:15,687 --> 00:20:18,163
to my face every time I see it.
507
00:20:18,163 --> 00:20:19,161
- Thank you very much.
508
00:20:19,161 --> 00:20:20,380
I appreciate that, Tony.
509
00:20:20,380 --> 00:20:22,713
Don't slam the fucking door!
510
00:20:24,781 --> 00:20:25,614
No more!
511
00:20:27,018 --> 00:20:28,196
- I didn't see him as being angry.
512
00:20:28,196 --> 00:20:30,437
I saw him as being really frustrated,
513
00:20:30,437 --> 00:20:32,687
over his head, overwhelmed,
514
00:20:33,942 --> 00:20:36,158
all the swearing and all that stuff,
515
00:20:36,158 --> 00:20:38,187
it's because he couldn't remember a line.
516
00:20:38,187 --> 00:20:39,060
He couldn't do this,
517
00:20:39,060 --> 00:20:42,594
and I think he probably thought
that we were judging him
518
00:20:42,594 --> 00:20:45,202
because we thought he was
an idiot or something.
519
00:20:45,202 --> 00:20:47,443
And he was beating himself up.
520
00:20:47,443 --> 00:20:48,932
Bbbbbbrrrrrrr!
521
00:20:48,932 --> 00:20:51,515
- It was done to get him fired.
522
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:55,317
So when the shoot was over,
523
00:20:55,317 --> 00:20:57,450
the tapes were passed out
to all the crew people,
524
00:20:57,450 --> 00:20:58,442
and that was it.
525
00:20:58,442 --> 00:21:00,734
- I mean, we made a copy
for the Winnebago execs,
526
00:21:00,734 --> 00:21:03,045
and somebody else made a copy,
somebody else made a copy,
527
00:21:03,045 --> 00:21:06,034
and then it finally came
out that Jack was fired.
528
00:21:06,034 --> 00:21:09,160
- So then we had to give some statements
529
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,160
to the vice presidents of Winnebago,
530
00:21:13,354 --> 00:21:15,334
who were very concerned at that point
531
00:21:15,334 --> 00:21:17,795
of why and what was going on.
532
00:21:17,795 --> 00:21:19,592
And I don't think they shot any more.
533
00:21:19,592 --> 00:21:20,593
I think that was it.
534
00:21:20,593 --> 00:21:23,910
And I think within a month,
he was gone from there.
535
00:21:23,910 --> 00:21:24,978
- I felt bad.
536
00:21:24,978 --> 00:21:25,811
I felt bad.
537
00:21:25,811 --> 00:21:28,321
I thought Jack is getting a bad rap.
538
00:21:28,321 --> 00:21:33,209
I thought he wasn't as bad
as the video had indicated.
539
00:21:33,209 --> 00:21:35,664
I just kind of thought
okay, I'll let this slide,
540
00:21:35,664 --> 00:21:37,841
because everyone was squawking
about it and talking.
541
00:21:37,841 --> 00:21:39,701
"Have you seen the Winnebago?
542
00:21:39,701 --> 00:21:40,581
Have you seen the thing?"
543
00:21:40,581 --> 00:21:41,769
And it was getting passed around,
544
00:21:41,769 --> 00:21:42,958
and there was a part of me
545
00:21:42,958 --> 00:21:45,979
that felt kind of bad for Jack Rebney.
546
00:21:45,979 --> 00:21:46,926
I've got to say it!
547
00:21:51,283 --> 00:21:53,057
- It was really, and I'm
gonna be very honest.
548
00:21:53,057 --> 00:21:55,241
There's not a week that goes by
549
00:21:55,241 --> 00:21:56,478
that I don't think about that job.
550
00:21:56,478 --> 00:21:59,146
- I never really saw him after that,
551
00:21:59,146 --> 00:22:01,842
and I always kind of wondered.
552
00:22:01,842 --> 00:22:04,487
- All of my searches are dead ends.
553
00:22:04,487 --> 00:22:06,589
The industrial video was
the last and only time
554
00:22:06,589 --> 00:22:08,339
anyone has seen Jack.
555
00:22:09,422 --> 00:22:13,541
Was he so humiliated
that he went into hiding?
556
00:22:13,541 --> 00:22:17,208
Out of ideas, I hire a
private investigator.
557
00:22:24,242 --> 00:22:25,942
- Okay, how do you spell it?
558
00:22:25,942 --> 00:22:29,942
- It is R-E-B-N-E-Y.
559
00:22:30,961 --> 00:22:31,943
- And first name?
560
00:22:31,943 --> 00:22:33,026
- Jack.
561
00:22:36,483 --> 00:22:38,867
- And we don't have any
idea what state he's in?
562
00:22:38,867 --> 00:22:40,617
He could be anywhere?
563
00:22:45,789 --> 00:22:46,872
That's weird.
564
00:22:55,647 --> 00:22:57,980
Multiple, multiple PO boxes.
565
00:22:59,588 --> 00:23:03,385
He's had a PO box at
every place he's lived at.
566
00:23:03,385 --> 00:23:04,987
There's nothing of any substance.
567
00:23:04,987 --> 00:23:06,264
There's no property.
568
00:23:06,264 --> 00:23:07,716
There's no cars.
569
00:23:07,716 --> 00:23:10,908
There's nothing employment-wise.
570
00:23:10,908 --> 00:23:12,104
There is no hunting license.
571
00:23:12,104 --> 00:23:14,604
There's no voter registration.
572
00:23:15,866 --> 00:23:17,249
- What does that mean?
573
00:23:19,684 --> 00:23:23,843
- Anything from trying
to change his identity
574
00:23:23,843 --> 00:23:27,474
to you don't want anybody
to really know who you are
575
00:23:27,474 --> 00:23:29,468
and what you're about.
576
00:23:29,468 --> 00:23:31,385
There's multiple things
577
00:23:34,379 --> 00:23:36,184
going on with this guy,
578
00:23:36,184 --> 00:23:38,407
and I don't know what they are.
579
00:23:38,407 --> 00:23:40,468
So it would be quite a challenge,
580
00:23:40,468 --> 00:23:42,218
I think, to find him.
581
00:23:56,423 --> 00:23:57,964
- Hello, you've
reached Ben Steinbauer.
582
00:23:57,964 --> 00:23:59,140
Please leave a message.
583
00:24:00,931 --> 00:24:04,466
- Hello, Mr. Steinbauer,
this is Jack Rebney.
584
00:24:04,466 --> 00:24:07,468
I received your letter today.
585
00:24:07,468 --> 00:24:09,969
It's inconceivable to me
586
00:24:09,969 --> 00:24:12,862
that you would have any interest in this,
587
00:24:12,862 --> 00:24:16,831
but if you want to talk, I'm interested.
588
00:24:16,831 --> 00:24:17,887
Good day,
589
00:24:17,887 --> 00:24:21,137
and I look forward to talking with you.
590
00:24:22,310 --> 00:24:24,041
- I can't believe it.
591
00:24:24,041 --> 00:24:25,747
I sent letters to the list of PO boxes
592
00:24:25,747 --> 00:24:28,863
that the private investigator gave me.
593
00:24:28,863 --> 00:24:32,127
Miraculously, one of them
found its way to Jack.
594
00:24:34,372 --> 00:24:35,205
Yes, hello.
595
00:24:35,205 --> 00:24:37,531
I nervously call him back.
596
00:24:37,531 --> 00:24:38,364
He's hesitant.
597
00:24:38,364 --> 00:24:40,360
He doesn't want to stay on the phone long.
598
00:24:40,360 --> 00:24:42,177
But after a little convincing,
599
00:24:42,177 --> 00:24:43,901
he agrees to let me come visit.
600
00:24:43,901 --> 00:24:46,968
- Clearly, we could
make some arrangement here.
601
00:24:46,968 --> 00:24:48,500
- That's when he tells me
602
00:24:48,500 --> 00:24:49,911
that he lives on top of a mountain
603
00:24:49,911 --> 00:24:51,303
in northern California.
604
00:24:58,271 --> 00:25:01,521
What's Jack doing all the way out here?
605
00:25:26,875 --> 00:25:28,032
- It's got a clip on it?
606
00:25:28,032 --> 00:25:28,865
Yes, it does.
607
00:25:28,865 --> 00:25:30,507
- Yeah, or you can just
slide it in your pocket.
608
00:25:30,507 --> 00:25:31,592
Whichever.
609
00:25:31,592 --> 00:25:32,800
- However it works.
610
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:34,467
- When we arrive, Jack is waiting
611
00:25:34,467 --> 00:25:36,923
for us in the driveway.
612
00:25:36,923 --> 00:25:38,059
- How we gonna do this?
613
00:25:38,059 --> 00:25:39,188
What do you want to do?
614
00:25:39,188 --> 00:25:42,635
- Well, how 'bout
you show us around?
615
00:25:42,635 --> 00:25:43,959
Are you ready?
616
00:25:43,959 --> 00:25:45,208
- All set.
617
00:25:45,208 --> 00:25:46,166
- Okay.
618
00:25:46,166 --> 00:25:47,847
Roll camera.
619
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:49,526
Great.
620
00:25:49,526 --> 00:25:50,497
Action.
621
00:25:52,210 --> 00:25:54,109
- Hello, I'm Jack Rebney.
622
00:25:54,109 --> 00:25:57,354
I'm the caretaker here at Rock Creek Lake.
623
00:25:57,354 --> 00:26:00,437
This is a fishing resort, as it were,
624
00:26:01,870 --> 00:26:03,214
with some of the fine fishing
625
00:26:03,214 --> 00:26:05,450
in the north part of California,
626
00:26:05,450 --> 00:26:06,850
and, for that matter, probably,
627
00:26:06,850 --> 00:26:10,490
some of the fine fishing in
the entire United States.
628
00:26:10,490 --> 00:26:12,786
We're at about 3,200 feet.
629
00:26:12,786 --> 00:26:16,011
Beautiful clean air,
wonderful clean water,
630
00:26:16,011 --> 00:26:19,962
and big fish for consummate fishermen.
631
00:26:28,391 --> 00:26:30,088
A lot of people have asked,
632
00:26:30,088 --> 00:26:33,121
"How can you live up here alone?
633
00:26:33,121 --> 00:26:35,121
What are you, a hermit?"
634
00:26:36,346 --> 00:26:38,596
Yes, I guess I am a hermit.
635
00:26:42,771 --> 00:26:45,930
I have everything that I'm interested in:
636
00:26:45,930 --> 00:26:47,178
I have my books,
637
00:26:47,178 --> 00:26:48,354
I have my computer,
638
00:26:48,354 --> 00:26:49,352
I have a telephone
639
00:26:49,352 --> 00:26:52,352
which allows me to reach my friends.
640
00:26:53,848 --> 00:26:55,691
That to me is entirely sufficient.
641
00:26:55,691 --> 00:26:58,691
I don't need the sound of the subway
642
00:26:59,703 --> 00:27:02,938
or the elevators going up
and down in the skyscrapers.
643
00:27:02,938 --> 00:27:04,940
I've been there.
644
00:27:04,940 --> 00:27:06,278
I don't need that any more.
645
00:27:06,278 --> 00:27:08,195
I'm quite pleased here.
646
00:27:10,994 --> 00:27:13,055
- Jack is so calm.
647
00:27:13,055 --> 00:27:15,795
I almost can't believe it.
648
00:27:15,795 --> 00:27:18,796
I thought there would at
least be a little swearing.
649
00:27:18,796 --> 00:27:20,375
But it as if he spent the last 20 years
650
00:27:20,375 --> 00:27:23,208
meditating and drinking green tea.
651
00:27:25,534 --> 00:27:26,533
- Come on.
652
00:27:26,533 --> 00:27:31,273
I want to show you my
luxurious 76-year-old cabin.
653
00:27:31,273 --> 00:27:33,512
It has everything that I need.
654
00:27:33,512 --> 00:27:34,595
It has books.
655
00:27:36,095 --> 00:27:39,793
It has critical analysis of everything
656
00:27:39,793 --> 00:27:44,373
from housemaid's need to
polycyclic organic matter.
657
00:27:44,373 --> 00:27:46,614
It has a fireplace, yes.
658
00:27:46,614 --> 00:27:47,947
It has shotguns.
659
00:27:50,058 --> 00:27:50,891
Rifles.
660
00:27:57,053 --> 00:27:59,219
I had never heard anything about it.
661
00:27:59,219 --> 00:28:03,120
I had no idea that anybody
had taken those outtakes
662
00:28:03,120 --> 00:28:05,157
and put them together.
663
00:28:05,157 --> 00:28:08,077
Ultimately one of my dear
friends called and he said,
664
00:28:08,077 --> 00:28:10,833
"Have you pulled yourself
up on the Internet?"
665
00:28:10,833 --> 00:28:11,955
"No."
666
00:28:11,955 --> 00:28:13,130
And now said,
667
00:28:13,130 --> 00:28:15,208
"There's this thing about
the Winnebago thing,"
668
00:28:15,208 --> 00:28:16,874
and so forth and so on.
669
00:28:16,874 --> 00:28:19,632
And he said, "it's hysterical.
670
00:28:19,632 --> 00:28:21,237
It's just hysterical.
671
00:28:21,237 --> 00:28:22,070
It's you.
672
00:28:22,070 --> 00:28:22,903
It's you."
673
00:28:24,412 --> 00:28:27,018
The Winnebago concepts and
engineering departments
674
00:28:27,018 --> 00:28:29,456
have developed a
multi-functional bathroom,
675
00:28:29,456 --> 00:28:31,740
privacy, I don't know
what the fuck I'm reading.
676
00:28:31,740 --> 00:28:34,554
I wonder what the fuck
the real dialogue is.
677
00:28:34,554 --> 00:28:36,595
You know what the scary part is?
678
00:28:36,595 --> 00:28:38,429
That, of course, all of this comes back.
679
00:28:41,201 --> 00:28:43,675
Remember the agony that
I was going through.
680
00:28:43,675 --> 00:28:46,346
Gonna be very helpful in
keeping you from falling down,
681
00:28:46,346 --> 00:28:48,264
you big dumb son of a,
682
00:28:48,264 --> 00:28:50,750
well, it is amusing to me,
683
00:28:50,750 --> 00:28:53,969
because it's, clearly what it is, is,
684
00:28:53,969 --> 00:28:58,864
it's some of historicity
of my youth, as it were.
685
00:28:58,864 --> 00:29:01,730
There's a considerable
amount of humor to it.
686
00:29:01,730 --> 00:29:03,213
But for the life of me,
687
00:29:03,213 --> 00:29:06,630
truly, I don't understand its popularity.
688
00:29:07,906 --> 00:29:11,006
- Jack isn't even
fazed by the video.
689
00:29:11,006 --> 00:29:15,029
He barely knew it existed,
and he doesn't seem to care.
690
00:29:15,029 --> 00:29:18,004
Did I make too big a deal out of this?
691
00:29:18,004 --> 00:29:19,244
Am I wasting his time
692
00:29:19,244 --> 00:29:23,345
with what he sees as a
trivial event in his life?
693
00:29:23,345 --> 00:29:27,512
- When you, when you and
I first originally spoke,
694
00:29:29,068 --> 00:29:31,782
I just said, "You want to what?"
695
00:29:33,264 --> 00:29:34,097
Who cares?
696
00:29:34,965 --> 00:29:36,207
Who cares?
697
00:29:36,207 --> 00:29:38,047
And you convinced me that clearly,
698
00:29:38,047 --> 00:29:40,130
there are people that do.
699
00:29:44,084 --> 00:29:46,018
- It's a little
odd for a 76-year-old
700
00:29:46,018 --> 00:29:49,101
to choose to live alone in the woods.
701
00:29:50,422 --> 00:29:54,505
But Jack seems at peace
up here in his seclusion.
702
00:29:56,366 --> 00:29:58,940
Okay, action, Jack,
give us the clap please.
703
00:29:58,940 --> 00:30:02,737
Whatever the case, he seems to
enjoy being on camera again.
704
00:30:02,737 --> 00:30:04,804
- I know there's a further thought,
705
00:30:04,804 --> 00:30:08,139
certainly I'm known as
the angriest man on earth,
706
00:30:08,139 --> 00:30:11,764
but I'm also known as the Winnebago Man.
707
00:30:11,764 --> 00:30:15,792
And there is some considerable
degree of pleasure in that.
708
00:30:15,792 --> 00:30:17,991
Winnebago, I found the people there,
709
00:30:17,991 --> 00:30:20,929
I found the corporate entity
and everyone I worked with
710
00:30:20,929 --> 00:30:24,915
to be just a splendid group of very kind,
711
00:30:24,915 --> 00:30:26,788
very gracious people,
712
00:30:26,788 --> 00:30:30,328
and if I represented them 20 years ago
713
00:30:30,328 --> 00:30:34,625
in those marketing
videos, that pleases me.
714
00:30:34,625 --> 00:30:36,375
I'm happy about that.
715
00:30:37,428 --> 00:30:41,352
The old hermit bids you all good things.
716
00:30:41,352 --> 00:30:42,185
Bye.
717
00:30:57,423 --> 00:31:00,729
- I return home with
my tail between my legs.
718
00:31:00,729 --> 00:31:02,888
What was the big deal?
719
00:31:02,888 --> 00:31:07,471
The clip seems at best a
minor anecdote in Jack's life.
720
00:31:10,313 --> 00:31:11,585
A week goes by.
721
00:31:12,684 --> 00:31:15,517
And then the phone begins to ring.
722
00:31:17,550 --> 00:31:18,421
Hello?
723
00:31:18,421 --> 00:31:19,254
- Ben!
724
00:31:19,254 --> 00:31:21,011
- Jack starts calling regularly.
725
00:31:21,011 --> 00:31:23,086
At first it's just to chat.
726
00:31:23,086 --> 00:31:24,530
- Oh, my god,
727
00:31:24,530 --> 00:31:26,708
Steinberner, Blunner,
728
00:31:26,708 --> 00:31:28,154
Bryner-Bronner!
729
00:31:28,154 --> 00:31:29,414
- How are you today?
730
00:31:29,414 --> 00:31:30,718
- I'm so ebullient
731
00:31:30,718 --> 00:31:34,924
that I don't even touch
the ground when I walk.
732
00:31:34,924 --> 00:31:37,483
- But then he tells
me he has a confession.
733
00:31:37,483 --> 00:31:42,483
- In that filming that
we did, I was Mary Poppins.
734
00:31:43,027 --> 00:31:44,868
- He tells me that I was set up,
735
00:31:44,868 --> 00:31:46,545
that he was putting on an act.
736
00:31:46,545 --> 00:31:49,488
- I was being calm, I was nice.
737
00:31:49,488 --> 00:31:52,246
I didn't slam my fist down on anything.
738
00:31:52,246 --> 00:31:54,388
- He explains that he
had been humiliated and angry
739
00:31:54,388 --> 00:31:56,309
when he first found out about the clip
740
00:31:56,309 --> 00:31:58,173
and wanted to sue everyone involved.
741
00:31:58,173 --> 00:32:00,309
- This is an illegality.
742
00:32:00,309 --> 00:32:02,428
I didn't know this existed.
743
00:32:02,428 --> 00:32:05,914
These outtakes were
maliciously put together.
744
00:32:05,914 --> 00:32:10,624
It really galls me when I think
about the fact that my name
745
00:32:10,624 --> 00:32:11,925
is plastered all over
746
00:32:11,925 --> 00:32:15,819
that fucking abysmal piece-of-shit-tube.
747
00:32:15,819 --> 00:32:16,654
- But he strategized
748
00:32:16,654 --> 00:32:19,425
that by acting a like
a calm, gentle old man,
749
00:32:19,425 --> 00:32:20,946
he could avoid going down in history
750
00:32:20,946 --> 00:32:23,664
as the angry Winnebago Man.
751
00:32:23,664 --> 00:32:25,401
But now he's decided that
he wants people to know
752
00:32:25,401 --> 00:32:27,004
the real Jack Rebney
753
00:32:27,004 --> 00:32:29,364
and share his thoughts about the world.
754
00:32:29,364 --> 00:32:30,938
- I see this whole fucking country
755
00:32:30,938 --> 00:32:32,794
going to shit in an ass-basket.
756
00:32:32,794 --> 00:32:35,298
It's just, it's staggering to consider
757
00:32:35,298 --> 00:32:38,631
how utterly, brainlessly, fucking stupid
758
00:32:40,624 --> 00:32:45,551
the mass of people in this
country are at this juncture.
759
00:32:45,551 --> 00:32:47,510
I have a way with words.
760
00:32:47,510 --> 00:32:52,314
I want to use that to
effectuate some understanding
761
00:32:52,314 --> 00:32:55,643
of what I see as a tragedy taking place
762
00:32:55,643 --> 00:32:57,393
in the United States.
763
00:32:58,767 --> 00:33:02,156
- This was the Jack
Rebney I expected to find,
764
00:33:02,156 --> 00:33:04,870
but I wasn't prepared for the rest.
765
00:33:04,870 --> 00:33:08,690
He keeps reaching out to me,
calling and sending me things.
766
00:33:08,690 --> 00:33:11,334
He wants me to read newspaper
columns he's written,
767
00:33:11,334 --> 00:33:12,593
and sends me a book he's writing
768
00:33:12,593 --> 00:33:14,976
about politics and religion.
769
00:33:14,976 --> 00:33:19,072
- The title of the book
is "Jousting With the Myth",
770
00:33:19,072 --> 00:33:20,894
and it has a subtitle.
771
00:33:20,894 --> 00:33:23,454
It's "An Heretical Analysis
772
00:33:23,454 --> 00:33:26,537
of God, Religion, Sex, and Politics."
773
00:33:27,992 --> 00:33:29,287
- Almost everything is a commentary
774
00:33:29,287 --> 00:33:32,352
about the failings of modern society.
775
00:33:32,352 --> 00:33:34,387
He wants to get his
concerns out into the world
776
00:33:34,387 --> 00:33:37,071
and thinks my film can help.
777
00:33:37,071 --> 00:33:40,505
I find out that Jack was
a broadcast journalist.
778
00:33:40,505 --> 00:33:41,692
- I used to produce programming
779
00:33:41,692 --> 00:33:43,951
for 50 million people.
780
00:33:43,951 --> 00:33:47,575
My initial experience was at WBBM,
781
00:33:47,575 --> 00:33:50,614
the CBS station in Chicago.
782
00:33:50,614 --> 00:33:53,316
And then I went on, and
I became a news director
783
00:33:53,316 --> 00:33:55,955
at various stations around the country.
784
00:33:55,955 --> 00:33:59,513
I was greatly taken with
news and news production.
785
00:33:59,513 --> 00:34:00,511
I loved the concept.
786
00:34:00,511 --> 00:34:03,333
I loved the Ed Murrows and the Sevareids,
787
00:34:03,333 --> 00:34:04,578
and the Bill Shadels,
788
00:34:04,578 --> 00:34:07,995
and all the old people who reported news.
789
00:34:09,614 --> 00:34:12,811
They didn't give you any opinion,
790
00:34:12,811 --> 00:34:14,472
that was the concept behind news.
791
00:34:14,472 --> 00:34:15,472
It was fair.
792
00:34:16,438 --> 00:34:18,591
And that changed.
793
00:34:18,591 --> 00:34:21,267
And I came to the point
of where I concluded,
794
00:34:21,267 --> 00:34:23,729
I don't want this any more.
795
00:34:23,729 --> 00:34:26,577
I never wanted to see
West 52nd Street again.
796
00:34:26,577 --> 00:34:28,843
I never wanted to see
Wiltshire Boulevard again.
797
00:34:28,843 --> 00:34:31,442
I never wanted to see Wacker Drive again.
798
00:34:31,442 --> 00:34:33,847
That give you an idea?
799
00:34:33,847 --> 00:34:34,826
- I'm surprised to hear
800
00:34:34,826 --> 00:34:37,859
about Jack's impressive
career in television.
801
00:34:37,859 --> 00:34:39,339
I ask if he still has any tapes
802
00:34:39,339 --> 00:34:41,342
from his years as a news director,
803
00:34:41,342 --> 00:34:43,320
but all he has is this.
804
00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:46,125
- Hello, I'm Jack Rebney for
the Western Slope Network.
805
00:34:46,125 --> 00:34:48,746
I want to welcome you
to a Christmas reading.
806
00:34:48,746 --> 00:34:51,262
"A Boy Who laughed at Santa Claus"
807
00:34:51,262 --> 00:34:52,429
by Ogden Nash.
808
00:34:53,826 --> 00:34:55,809
"In Baltimore, there lived a boy.
809
00:34:55,809 --> 00:34:57,704
He wasn't anybody's joy.
810
00:34:57,704 --> 00:34:59,608
Although his name was Jabez Dawes,
811
00:34:59,608 --> 00:35:02,145
his character was full of flaws."
812
00:35:02,145 --> 00:35:03,863
- And as if to
set the record straight,
813
00:35:03,863 --> 00:35:07,085
he gives me the finished
Winnebago sales video.
814
00:35:07,085 --> 00:35:09,978
- The Itasca concepts and
engineering departments
815
00:35:09,978 --> 00:35:11,842
have developed a multifunctional
816
00:35:11,842 --> 00:35:14,147
privacy bathroom configuration
817
00:35:14,147 --> 00:35:16,022
that will solve a lot of problems
818
00:35:16,022 --> 00:35:19,984
and that will make you a real sales point.
819
00:35:19,984 --> 00:35:22,849
- These images take
on a new meaning for me.
820
00:35:22,849 --> 00:35:26,504
I no longer see Jack as a
disgruntled RV salesman,
821
00:35:26,504 --> 00:35:27,763
but as a serious journalist
822
00:35:27,763 --> 00:35:30,062
who gave up his career on principle,
823
00:35:30,062 --> 00:35:31,560
and ended up stuck in Iowa,
824
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:33,877
sweating through an
industrial video shoot.
825
00:35:33,877 --> 00:35:36,660
- A full steel frame, a full compartment.
826
00:35:36,660 --> 00:35:38,622
- Jack is intent
on clearing his name
827
00:35:38,622 --> 00:35:40,235
and proving that he's
not the irrational man
828
00:35:40,235 --> 00:35:42,598
in the Winnebago clip.
829
00:35:42,598 --> 00:35:44,879
This could be really interesting,
830
00:35:44,879 --> 00:35:46,554
but what if putting him back on camera
831
00:35:46,554 --> 00:35:49,804
ends up humiliating him all over again?
832
00:36:06,513 --> 00:36:07,833
To get some perspective,
833
00:36:07,833 --> 00:36:10,655
I head to Las Vegas to
meet Jack's oldest friend,
834
00:36:10,655 --> 00:36:13,900
a corporate jet pilot named Keith Gordon.
835
00:36:13,900 --> 00:36:17,483
Keith and Jack talk on
the phone every day.
836
00:36:18,619 --> 00:36:21,097
- You have to understand,
837
00:36:21,097 --> 00:36:23,995
one of the dichotomies about Jack
838
00:36:23,995 --> 00:36:26,070
is that he's always wanted an audience,
839
00:36:26,070 --> 00:36:31,070
he's always wanted to influence
people's thought process,
840
00:36:31,135 --> 00:36:32,336
at the same time,
841
00:36:32,336 --> 00:36:35,459
has always wanted to be totally isolated.
842
00:36:35,459 --> 00:36:38,652
His dream was to always have some land
843
00:36:38,652 --> 00:36:40,597
where he could build a cabin,
844
00:36:40,597 --> 00:36:44,898
and, as he would always
say to me, "Lock the gate,"
845
00:36:44,898 --> 00:36:48,565
and not have to deal
with the outside world.
846
00:36:49,618 --> 00:36:52,618
Well, it turns out he had done that.
847
00:36:54,252 --> 00:36:55,535
In spite of that,
848
00:36:55,535 --> 00:36:59,285
the outside world blazed
a trail to his door.
849
00:37:02,876 --> 00:37:05,232
35 years I've known him.
850
00:37:05,232 --> 00:37:07,816
He never in his wildest dreams
851
00:37:07,816 --> 00:37:11,595
thought that his notoriety
would come from the Internet,
852
00:37:11,595 --> 00:37:13,877
which he has nothing but disdain for,
853
00:37:13,877 --> 00:37:17,512
let alone outtakes of an industrial film
854
00:37:17,512 --> 00:37:20,455
he did for Winnebago industries.
855
00:37:20,455 --> 00:37:22,214
This is not the context
856
00:37:22,214 --> 00:37:25,381
that Jack Rebney wants to be known in.
857
00:37:28,935 --> 00:37:30,768
Well, let's call Jack.
858
00:37:34,411 --> 00:37:37,472
Oh, my god, you're still alive!
859
00:37:37,472 --> 00:37:39,222
Well, listen, bubski,
860
00:37:41,096 --> 00:37:43,738
I have had the best time
861
00:37:43,738 --> 00:37:45,988
lambasting and libeling you
862
00:37:47,713 --> 00:37:50,712
and telling all kinds of really,
863
00:37:50,712 --> 00:37:53,699
really bad stories about you.
864
00:37:53,699 --> 00:37:57,414
There was a period in my life
where I had hit rock bottom,
865
00:37:57,414 --> 00:38:01,658
and would have easily been
living under a freeway overpass,
866
00:38:01,658 --> 00:38:03,491
or sleeping in my car.
867
00:38:04,340 --> 00:38:06,575
Actually I didn't even
have a car at that point.
868
00:38:06,575 --> 00:38:08,438
My car had been stolen.
869
00:38:08,438 --> 00:38:10,105
And Jack took me in.
870
00:38:11,028 --> 00:38:14,935
He gave me a floor to sleep
on, some clothing to wear,
871
00:38:14,935 --> 00:38:19,435
and, you know, literally
kept me from being destitute.
872
00:38:20,594 --> 00:38:24,315
You think this is all ending
up on the cutting room floor?
873
00:38:24,315 --> 00:38:27,316
Well, let me remind you, young man,
874
00:38:27,316 --> 00:38:29,957
this whole thing started
875
00:38:29,957 --> 00:38:33,434
with footage left on
the cutting room floor.
876
00:38:33,434 --> 00:38:36,014
You're not out of the woods yet!
877
00:38:37,335 --> 00:38:39,575
- Keith assures me that
Jack really does want to be
878
00:38:39,575 --> 00:38:43,777
back on camera and reclaim his reputation,
879
00:38:43,777 --> 00:38:46,220
and I'm starting to realize
that the Winnebago Man clip
880
00:38:46,220 --> 00:38:48,615
could be a blessing in disguise.
881
00:38:54,408 --> 00:38:56,590
Maybe I can reach out to his Internet fans
882
00:38:56,590 --> 00:38:59,833
and show them a different Jack Rebney.
883
00:39:11,098 --> 00:39:13,015
- Okay, go ahead.
884
00:39:17,863 --> 00:39:20,961
- But I return home
to some disturbing news.
885
00:39:20,961 --> 00:39:23,560
Jack has been diagnosed
with acute glaucoma,
886
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:26,420
and his vision has deteriorated suddenly.
887
00:39:26,420 --> 00:39:29,920
On a recent walk, he
couldn't find his way home.
888
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,219
The local sheriff's
report was posted online,
889
00:39:32,219 --> 00:39:34,719
and discovered by Jack's fans.
890
00:39:35,661 --> 00:39:37,578
I call him immediately.
891
00:39:40,348 --> 00:39:41,604
- One thing led to another,
892
00:39:41,604 --> 00:39:44,021
and then I became disoriented
893
00:39:46,198 --> 00:39:50,918
and fell into a couple of
deep holes and what have you.
894
00:39:50,918 --> 00:39:55,335
So, instead of walking, I
began crawling on my knees.
895
00:39:58,896 --> 00:40:01,796
It began to lengthen into night,
896
00:40:01,796 --> 00:40:04,963
and I still wasn't finding my way out.
897
00:40:06,237 --> 00:40:08,118
And it was cold, and I was wet.
898
00:40:09,981 --> 00:40:12,514
And ultimately, I saw this flashlight.
899
00:40:12,514 --> 00:40:15,560
It came toward me, and
he introduced himself,
900
00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:19,643
and he said, "I'm deputy
sheriff blah blah blah."
901
00:40:21,154 --> 00:40:25,710
It's a compelling moment,
a very visceral moment,
902
00:40:25,710 --> 00:40:28,694
when you come to the conclusion that,
903
00:40:28,694 --> 00:40:31,277
"I really can't do it anymore."
904
00:40:48,414 --> 00:40:52,331
- I return to
Manton, for a second visit.
905
00:41:08,101 --> 00:41:09,184
Knock, knock.
906
00:41:20,715 --> 00:41:23,821
Hello, we're looking for the caretaker.
907
00:41:23,821 --> 00:41:26,079
- Well, he's taking a shit.
908
00:41:28,558 --> 00:41:32,615
Come in and sit down, you goddamned mint.
909
00:41:32,615 --> 00:41:33,632
'Cause I'm shitting
910
00:41:33,632 --> 00:41:35,802
doesn't mean that you
have to stay outside.
911
00:41:37,548 --> 00:41:39,725
- Are you really shitting in there?
912
00:41:39,725 --> 00:41:42,301
Jack, this girl is
pretty wound up out here.
913
00:41:42,301 --> 00:41:45,746
- Yeah, she got
into a skunk last night.
914
00:41:45,746 --> 00:41:47,983
Can you smell it?
915
00:41:47,983 --> 00:41:51,199
- Uh, now that
you mention it, I can.
916
00:41:51,199 --> 00:41:52,252
- Just speak up, Ben,
917
00:41:52,252 --> 00:41:53,697
for Christ's sake, I'm an old man,
918
00:41:53,697 --> 00:41:54,530
will you?
919
00:41:54,530 --> 00:41:57,212
- Does it mean that the
skunk is on our hands?
920
00:41:57,212 --> 00:41:58,336
- Of course.
921
00:41:58,336 --> 00:41:59,169
What the hell?
922
00:41:59,169 --> 00:42:00,002
What do you thi,
923
00:42:00,002 --> 00:42:01,263
what earthly difference does it make?
924
00:42:01,263 --> 00:42:04,339
You're in the god-damned wilds.
925
00:42:04,339 --> 00:42:06,841
This is not fucking Austin.
926
00:42:06,841 --> 00:42:07,674
- Hi, Jack.
927
00:42:07,674 --> 00:42:08,507
- Nor is it the city limits.
928
00:42:08,507 --> 00:42:09,542
How are you?
929
00:42:09,542 --> 00:42:10,436
- I'm good, how are you?
930
00:42:10,436 --> 00:42:11,269
- I'm okay.
931
00:42:11,269 --> 00:42:12,434
- It's good to see you again.
932
00:42:12,434 --> 00:42:13,914
- Buddha, get down!
933
00:42:13,914 --> 00:42:15,870
Buddha, get down.
934
00:42:15,870 --> 00:42:17,429
I'm very old.
935
00:42:17,429 --> 00:42:18,857
I'm very crotchety.
936
00:42:18,857 --> 00:42:20,600
I'm pissed off.
937
00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:22,494
What else is new, Ben?
938
00:42:22,494 --> 00:42:24,638
- You were pissed off
last time we came around.
939
00:42:24,638 --> 00:42:25,691
- No, I wasn't.
940
00:42:25,691 --> 00:42:26,831
I was a gentle old man.
941
00:42:26,831 --> 00:42:29,164
I was a nice, calm, old man.
942
00:42:31,632 --> 00:42:33,635
Who just nodded and did everything
943
00:42:33,635 --> 00:42:34,953
that you wanted me to do.
944
00:42:34,953 --> 00:42:38,511
Said all of that absolute
trash that I said,
945
00:42:38,511 --> 00:42:41,054
which was totally untrue.
946
00:42:41,054 --> 00:42:42,804
And, but, forewarned,
947
00:42:46,490 --> 00:42:48,444
you're still here.
948
00:42:48,444 --> 00:42:52,666
And I'm sure that you'll find
this to be a bit different.
949
00:42:54,863 --> 00:42:56,306
You stink.
950
00:42:56,306 --> 00:42:58,306
God, you smell terrible.
951
00:43:00,022 --> 00:43:01,449
- Okay, so, Jack,
952
00:43:01,449 --> 00:43:03,026
I want you to tell us what's happened
953
00:43:03,026 --> 00:43:04,292
since we last saw you.
954
00:43:04,292 --> 00:43:05,374
- Oh, oh.
955
00:43:05,374 --> 00:43:07,654
I've had the unfortunate circumstance
956
00:43:07,654 --> 00:43:10,071
of having my vision leave me.
957
00:43:11,688 --> 00:43:13,894
It's almost like a divorce.
958
00:43:13,894 --> 00:43:15,456
I didn't understand what I'd done.
959
00:43:16,710 --> 00:43:20,111
For practical purposes, I'm helpless.
960
00:43:20,111 --> 00:43:22,074
I can't drive.
961
00:43:22,074 --> 00:43:24,157
I can't ride my unicycle.
962
00:43:27,049 --> 00:43:28,966
This dog isn't big enough to harness
963
00:43:28,966 --> 00:43:31,733
and put behind, or in front of a sled.
964
00:43:31,733 --> 00:43:32,983
So I'm trapped.
965
00:43:35,605 --> 00:43:36,938
Come on, Buddha.
966
00:43:40,009 --> 00:43:41,342
Come on, buddhy.
967
00:43:42,264 --> 00:43:43,766
- Despite his sudden blindness,
968
00:43:43,766 --> 00:43:45,427
Jack doesn't want to leave the cabin
969
00:43:45,427 --> 00:43:48,025
and give up his seclusion.
970
00:43:48,025 --> 00:43:50,585
So tell me about putting up this monorail.
971
00:43:50,585 --> 00:43:53,583
- Well, the concept was that
I would have the opportunity
972
00:43:53,583 --> 00:43:57,425
to go walking, because,
if you remember correctly,
973
00:43:57,425 --> 00:44:00,592
I learned my lesson in the presumption
974
00:44:01,483 --> 00:44:05,405
that I could follow the
roadway without getting lost.
975
00:44:05,405 --> 00:44:08,429
And that turned out not to be the case.
976
00:44:08,429 --> 00:44:10,012
So I got lost, Ben,
977
00:44:11,709 --> 00:44:14,709
and found myself out in the boonies,
978
00:44:16,643 --> 00:44:19,290
and I didn't know where the hell I was.
979
00:44:20,123 --> 00:44:20,956
- How does that make you feel,
980
00:44:20,956 --> 00:44:25,402
that that was international
news on the computer?
981
00:44:25,402 --> 00:44:28,069
- Ben, you don't get it, do you?
982
00:44:31,122 --> 00:44:33,455
You simply do not fathom it.
983
00:44:37,681 --> 00:44:42,257
The fact that it was picked
up by the local paper
984
00:44:42,257 --> 00:44:46,261
or the wire services or whatever it was
985
00:44:46,261 --> 00:44:48,928
was completely irrelevant to me.
986
00:44:51,547 --> 00:44:53,130
Totally irrelevant.
987
00:44:55,201 --> 00:44:56,534
Come on, buddhy.
988
00:45:03,998 --> 00:45:05,831
Un-fucking-believable.
989
00:45:10,795 --> 00:45:12,466
- You're not gonna
go for a drive, are you?
990
00:45:12,466 --> 00:45:14,864
- Just stand back and look out.
991
00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:32,540
That's the essence of Detroit.
992
00:45:33,836 --> 00:45:38,836
Now, Mrs. Pritchard is coming
to pick up the garbage,
993
00:45:38,979 --> 00:45:42,009
and she takes my truck when she does that.
994
00:45:42,009 --> 00:45:43,897
- Oh, okay.
995
00:45:43,897 --> 00:45:46,416
- Which means absolutely nothing to you.
996
00:45:46,416 --> 00:45:48,213
- When is she coming?
997
00:45:48,213 --> 00:45:50,676
- Uh, actually, you'd have to ask her.
998
00:45:50,676 --> 00:45:52,322
Mrs. Pritchard, I don't
think Mrs. Pritchard
999
00:45:52,322 --> 00:45:55,768
has probably come in maybe
15 years, but go ahead.
1000
00:45:55,768 --> 00:45:57,114
Where are we going now?
1001
00:45:57,114 --> 00:45:58,355
- We're going this way.
1002
00:45:58,355 --> 00:46:00,353
Put your hand on my shoulder.
1003
00:46:00,353 --> 00:46:03,613
We're going towards the car here.
1004
00:46:03,613 --> 00:46:04,861
- You brought the limo?
1005
00:46:04,861 --> 00:46:05,694
- The limo.
1006
00:46:06,527 --> 00:46:07,360
- Huh?
1007
00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:08,790
- That's right, and I'm
gonna be driving you around.
1008
00:46:08,790 --> 00:46:09,665
- Where we going?
1009
00:46:09,665 --> 00:46:10,498
- Right here.
1010
00:46:10,498 --> 00:46:12,112
- God, almighty, why am I falling down?
1011
00:46:12,112 --> 00:46:13,124
What the fuck?
1012
00:46:13,124 --> 00:46:15,490
You put me on some kind of an incline.
1013
00:46:15,490 --> 00:46:16,657
Honest to god.
1014
00:46:19,629 --> 00:46:21,568
There's no seat here.
1015
00:46:21,568 --> 00:46:23,606
What the fuck is wrong with you?
1016
00:46:23,606 --> 00:46:24,943
Agh!
1017
00:46:24,943 --> 00:46:26,405
Ben!
1018
00:46:26,405 --> 00:46:28,322
The fuck have you done?
1019
00:46:30,860 --> 00:46:32,027
- Jesus.
1020
00:46:35,275 --> 00:46:39,275
When was the last time
you went into town, Jack?
1021
00:46:40,192 --> 00:46:41,025
- I don't know.
1022
00:46:41,025 --> 00:46:41,858
'Bout a week, I guess,
1023
00:46:41,858 --> 00:46:43,747
something like that.
1024
00:46:43,747 --> 00:46:46,267
- Since Jack wants to
get his ideas out to the world,
1025
00:46:46,267 --> 00:46:49,686
my plan is to go into town
and get him a video camera.
1026
00:46:49,686 --> 00:46:51,985
- We'll have lunch today
1027
00:46:51,985 --> 00:46:55,508
at a place called the Sausage Factory.
1028
00:46:55,508 --> 00:46:58,260
They have great sandwiches.
1029
00:46:58,260 --> 00:46:59,769
- I'll set up
the camera in his cabin
1030
00:46:59,769 --> 00:47:02,672
so he can record weekly
commentaries for his fans
1031
00:47:02,672 --> 00:47:05,005
like a modern-day Ed Murrow.
1032
00:47:06,489 --> 00:47:09,852
Well, Jack, I want you
to use your notoriety.
1033
00:47:09,852 --> 00:47:11,188
- You want me to do what?
1034
00:47:11,188 --> 00:47:12,545
- Use your notoriety.
1035
00:47:12,545 --> 00:47:14,049
I'm gonna buy a camera and set it up,
1036
00:47:14,049 --> 00:47:17,590
and have you do your social
and political commentaries.
1037
00:47:17,590 --> 00:47:21,370
- Well, we haven't yet
come to any agreement
1038
00:47:21,370 --> 00:47:23,871
as to whether or not we're
going to do any of that.
1039
00:47:23,871 --> 00:47:28,411
I'm going to, what, I'm
going to appear on YouTube?
1040
00:47:28,411 --> 00:47:29,409
Oh, that'll be great.
1041
00:47:29,409 --> 00:47:31,691
I can hardly wait.
1042
00:47:31,691 --> 00:47:33,418
I'll be programmed right between the guy
1043
00:47:33,418 --> 00:47:35,221
with the broken arm,
1044
00:47:35,221 --> 00:47:38,138
and somebody doing an exotic dance.
1045
00:47:39,092 --> 00:47:40,107
That'll be great.
1046
00:47:40,107 --> 00:47:41,587
- I just don't think
you're taking advantage
1047
00:47:41,587 --> 00:47:44,189
of this group of people
you could talk to, Jack.
1048
00:47:44,189 --> 00:47:46,093
- You don't think
I'm taking advantage of who?
1049
00:47:46,093 --> 00:47:47,893
- Of this audience that you have.
1050
00:47:47,893 --> 00:47:49,451
- I don't want an audience.
1051
00:47:49,451 --> 00:47:50,992
I don't need an audience.
1052
00:47:50,992 --> 00:47:53,027
- If that was true, why would you call me?
1053
00:47:53,027 --> 00:47:54,371
Would you call Keith Gordon?
1054
00:47:54,371 --> 00:47:56,229
Why would you keep talking
to all these people?
1055
00:47:56,229 --> 00:47:57,955
Why would you be trying to publish a book
1056
00:47:57,955 --> 00:47:59,171
and write a screenplay?
1057
00:47:59,171 --> 00:48:00,398
- Well, now, wait a minute.
1058
00:48:00,398 --> 00:48:02,892
Now, you see, you can't
mix apples and oranges.
1059
00:48:02,892 --> 00:48:03,995
- Those are audiences.
1060
00:48:03,995 --> 00:48:05,110
Those are looking for audiences.
1061
00:48:05,110 --> 00:48:06,613
- They're audiences, yeah.
1062
00:48:06,613 --> 00:48:10,770
I don't believe that I have the capability
1063
00:48:10,770 --> 00:48:14,671
of being able to couch
anything in a vernacular
1064
00:48:14,671 --> 00:48:17,649
that's going to be
understood by the people
1065
00:48:17,649 --> 00:48:20,412
that you want me to talk to.
1066
00:48:20,412 --> 00:48:23,578
I don't, I can't, I have no relationship
1067
00:48:23,578 --> 00:48:26,954
with YouTube or whatever the hell it is.
1068
00:48:26,954 --> 00:48:29,172
I have no interest.
1069
00:48:29,172 --> 00:48:30,189
What I'll do,
1070
00:48:30,189 --> 00:48:31,830
we can go and stand in front of Wal-Mart,
1071
00:48:31,830 --> 00:48:33,755
and I'll give you a couple of diatribes,
1072
00:48:33,755 --> 00:48:36,271
and then you can put them on YouTube.
1073
00:48:36,271 --> 00:48:38,314
Take this, take them off the tape here,
1074
00:48:38,314 --> 00:48:39,717
put them on YouTube,
1075
00:48:39,717 --> 00:48:42,715
and you'll find out what
kind of a reaction you get.
1076
00:48:42,715 --> 00:48:44,505
- All right, so that's
what we're going to do.
1077
00:48:44,505 --> 00:48:45,338
- Mm-hmm.
1078
00:48:45,338 --> 00:48:46,171
- All right.
1079
00:48:46,171 --> 00:48:47,787
So you're gonna have your say here,
1080
00:48:47,787 --> 00:48:51,136
in Redding, in front of the Wal-Mart.
1081
00:48:51,136 --> 00:48:53,755
- That's what, you
wanted to go to Redding.
1082
00:48:53,755 --> 00:48:56,111
I don't want to break my god-damned leg
1083
00:48:56,111 --> 00:48:58,816
getting out of this pile of shit.
1084
00:48:58,816 --> 00:48:59,649
Oh, Jesus.
1085
00:49:00,989 --> 00:49:02,906
Oh, that was atrocious.
1086
00:49:04,111 --> 00:49:06,026
- And action, Jack.
1087
00:49:06,026 --> 00:49:07,512
- Are you, how's your audio?
1088
00:49:07,512 --> 00:49:08,612
Is everything all right there?
1089
00:49:08,612 --> 00:49:09,656
One, two, three, four.
1090
00:49:09,656 --> 00:49:10,489
- Yep, we're good.
1091
00:49:10,489 --> 00:49:11,712
- Five, six, seven, eight.
1092
00:49:11,712 --> 00:49:13,255
- Good.
1093
00:49:13,255 --> 00:49:14,552
- Over the top of my shoulder,
1094
00:49:14,552 --> 00:49:17,075
you undoubtedly will be able to see
1095
00:49:17,075 --> 00:49:19,275
that we're standing in proximity
1096
00:49:19,275 --> 00:49:21,525
to a place called Wal-Mart.
1097
00:49:26,136 --> 00:49:30,227
You see their large carriers
going down the highway.
1098
00:49:30,227 --> 00:49:31,654
And they always say,
1099
00:49:31,654 --> 00:49:33,128
"For less.
1100
00:49:33,128 --> 00:49:34,961
You can buy for less."
1101
00:49:36,112 --> 00:49:37,215
Well, there's a connection here.
1102
00:49:37,215 --> 00:49:39,393
- There's a Wal-Mart
manager, right there.
1103
00:49:39,393 --> 00:49:42,150
- Well, good for you,
Mr. Wal-Mart manager.
1104
00:49:42,150 --> 00:49:44,778
You're a little trepidatious.
1105
00:49:46,981 --> 00:49:50,731
Does Wal-Mart own this
part of the place too?
1106
00:49:52,083 --> 00:49:53,163
- This is Wal-Mart, yes?
1107
00:49:53,163 --> 00:49:54,600
- Ah, you own it?
1108
00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:56,623
You own the street?
1109
00:49:56,623 --> 00:49:58,100
Do you own Redding?
1110
00:49:58,100 --> 00:50:00,561
- We thought we
were on the sidewalk,
1111
00:50:00,561 --> 00:50:01,570
like, over by the road.
1112
00:50:01,570 --> 00:50:03,108
- This is my super-saver lot.
1113
00:50:03,108 --> 00:50:04,691
- This is your who?
1114
00:50:06,270 --> 00:50:07,802
- Eh, I'm just,
I'm calling the police.
1115
00:50:07,802 --> 00:50:10,192
- Oh, yeah, you call the police.
1116
00:50:10,192 --> 00:50:12,785
By all means, call the police!
1117
00:50:12,785 --> 00:50:14,118
Get the gestapo!
1118
00:50:16,108 --> 00:50:19,150
Come on, let's get out of here.
1119
00:50:21,042 --> 00:50:23,625
The junk factory strikes again.
1120
00:50:25,628 --> 00:50:28,490
Fuck him and the horse he rode in on.
1121
00:50:28,490 --> 00:50:31,967
After having dealt with these
people for 100 fuckin' years,
1122
00:50:31,967 --> 00:50:34,865
all I do is tell 'em to
stick it up their ass.
1123
00:50:34,865 --> 00:50:36,463
But, of course, you don't
want to do that, Ben,
1124
00:50:36,463 --> 00:50:38,370
because you're a nice kid from Texas,
1125
00:50:38,370 --> 00:50:40,637
and, you know, you don't want
that reputation to follow you.
1126
00:50:40,637 --> 00:50:42,159
You might think you're an angry man.
1127
00:50:43,816 --> 00:50:47,456
I thought we'd cut another
piece in front of Best Buy,
1128
00:50:47,456 --> 00:50:49,616
which would give us the
opportunity to have the police
1129
00:50:49,616 --> 00:50:53,035
come and throw us off
the Best Buy parking lot.
1130
00:50:53,035 --> 00:50:54,155
- We go to Best Buy,
1131
00:50:54,155 --> 00:50:58,236
and I bring up the
video camera idea again.
1132
00:50:58,236 --> 00:50:59,536
- And I thought that would be,
1133
00:50:59,536 --> 00:51:01,642
and I thought that would be of value,
1134
00:51:01,642 --> 00:51:04,408
rather than this continually,
1135
00:51:04,408 --> 00:51:08,764
going back to the fact that
I'm some type of an icon,
1136
00:51:08,764 --> 00:51:09,995
and that I'm,
1137
00:51:09,995 --> 00:51:14,396
and that people want me either
to say motherfucker or shit
1138
00:51:14,396 --> 00:51:16,112
or whatever it might be.
1139
00:51:16,112 --> 00:51:18,195
I'm not going to do that.
1140
00:51:22,216 --> 00:51:23,340
- So what you're saying is,
1141
00:51:23,340 --> 00:51:24,953
you don't want to do the camera thing?
1142
00:51:24,953 --> 00:51:27,020
- Ben, what I'm saying is, what,
1143
00:51:27,020 --> 00:51:29,879
where it stands is exactly where it stood.
1144
00:51:29,879 --> 00:51:31,917
What you've got is you've got zilch
1145
00:51:31,917 --> 00:51:33,455
unless you've got me.
1146
00:51:33,455 --> 00:51:35,538
Let's stop this nonsense.
1147
00:51:36,574 --> 00:51:39,115
I mean, this is just fucking ridiculous.
1148
00:51:39,115 --> 00:51:40,073
- But I don't understand
1149
00:51:40,073 --> 00:51:41,031
what you're saying is nonsense.
1150
00:51:41,031 --> 00:51:43,781
Help me understand what you mean.
1151
00:51:45,489 --> 00:51:47,313
- You're taking the,
the joy, you're taking
1152
00:51:47,313 --> 00:51:48,146
the fun out of it.
1153
00:51:48,146 --> 00:51:49,390
- Okay, well I-
1154
00:51:49,390 --> 00:51:50,803
- And I don't, and I don't need it.
1155
00:51:50,803 --> 00:51:52,803
I don't need to be here.
1156
00:51:52,803 --> 00:51:54,951
I can get on my fucking
phone and call a cab
1157
00:51:54,951 --> 00:51:57,368
and get the fuck out of here.
1158
00:51:58,461 --> 00:51:59,519
Man, I mean, you know,
1159
00:51:59,519 --> 00:52:02,157
listen, if I can leave CBS three times,
1160
00:52:02,157 --> 00:52:05,110
I sure as fuck can leave you.
1161
00:52:08,589 --> 00:52:12,256
- We stop for
lunch and call it a day.
1162
00:52:21,541 --> 00:52:24,002
Later that night, I'm exhausted.
1163
00:52:24,002 --> 00:52:28,752
I feel like I've stepped into
the Winnebago Man outtakes.
1164
00:52:35,378 --> 00:52:36,253
The next morning,
1165
00:52:36,253 --> 00:52:40,836
we drive back to see Jack
and try a different approach.
1166
00:52:53,214 --> 00:52:54,964
Do a mic check, Jack.
1167
00:52:55,964 --> 00:52:57,903
- 10, nine, eight, seven, six,
1168
00:52:57,903 --> 00:53:00,298
five, four, three, two, one,
1169
00:53:00,298 --> 00:53:04,465
and all the rest of it,
including Hillary Clinton.
1170
00:53:05,777 --> 00:53:09,957
- Tell us about what
your childhood was like.
1171
00:53:09,957 --> 00:53:13,691
- You have an ulterior motivation in this.
1172
00:53:15,038 --> 00:53:16,036
- I do?
1173
00:53:16,036 --> 00:53:17,603
- Ben, Ben,
1174
00:53:17,603 --> 00:53:21,520
Ben, your transparency
is almost mind-boggling.
1175
00:53:23,793 --> 00:53:26,922
Ben, my childhood was magnificent.
1176
00:53:26,922 --> 00:53:28,263
The only problem with my childhood
1177
00:53:28,263 --> 00:53:30,561
was that I didn't have a choo-choo train.
1178
00:53:30,561 --> 00:53:32,338
- Well, tell us where you were born.
1179
00:53:32,338 --> 00:53:35,699
- I, I'm, we're not going to go into that.
1180
00:53:35,699 --> 00:53:36,697
- No?
1181
00:53:36,697 --> 00:53:38,160
- No.
1182
00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:38,993
I don't-
1183
00:53:38,993 --> 00:53:40,161
- What about being married?
1184
00:53:40,161 --> 00:53:41,683
You want to talk about that at all?
1185
00:53:41,683 --> 00:53:44,742
- We already talked about it, remember?
1186
00:53:44,742 --> 00:53:49,492
If you fuck with me with this,
Ben, it ends it right now.
1187
00:53:50,959 --> 00:53:52,480
Leave it alone.
1188
00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:54,262
- Okay, I think
you're misunderstanding me.
1189
00:53:54,262 --> 00:53:57,694
- I don't care what you
think in terms of my ability
1190
00:53:57,694 --> 00:54:00,520
to be able to understand anything.
1191
00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:02,679
If you piss me off,
1192
00:54:02,679 --> 00:54:07,012
that reaction will be
something you will not forget.
1193
00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:10,299
The fuck are we doing?
1194
00:54:10,299 --> 00:54:11,894
- Are you happy that we're
making this documentary
1195
00:54:11,894 --> 00:54:12,727
about you?
1196
00:54:12,727 --> 00:54:14,203
Do you want us to be up here?
1197
00:54:14,203 --> 00:54:16,307
Do you want me to be asking you questions?
1198
00:54:16,307 --> 00:54:19,661
Do you want to be in this position?
1199
00:54:19,661 --> 00:54:22,828
- What I want to do for these last few
1200
00:54:25,100 --> 00:54:27,933
feet of film that I may ever make,
1201
00:54:29,480 --> 00:54:32,952
I want people to understand
that there are critical elements
1202
00:54:32,952 --> 00:54:34,563
that they have to attend to,
1203
00:54:34,563 --> 00:54:37,297
or they're going to lose their country.
1204
00:54:37,297 --> 00:54:39,880
Dick Cheney has had eight years
1205
00:54:41,917 --> 00:54:44,500
to literally ruin this economy.
1206
00:54:48,483 --> 00:54:49,900
That's the issue.
1207
00:54:50,898 --> 00:54:52,913
- I don't understand.
1208
00:54:52,913 --> 00:54:54,808
Like you said, this is maybe gonna be
1209
00:54:54,808 --> 00:54:56,621
the last piece of film
that you ever shoot,
1210
00:54:56,621 --> 00:54:58,623
the last time that you can be on camera.
1211
00:54:58,623 --> 00:54:59,717
- Yeah.
1212
00:54:59,717 --> 00:55:01,098
- And this is what you want to say?
1213
00:55:01,098 --> 00:55:02,741
- Abso-fucking-lutely.
1214
00:55:02,741 --> 00:55:04,846
- You've been up here for 15 years,
1215
00:55:04,846 --> 00:55:06,601
studying the great works,
1216
00:55:06,601 --> 00:55:08,984
you've been studying, you
know, the Quran and the Torah-
1217
00:55:08,984 --> 00:55:10,008
- And there's only one thing
1218
00:55:10,008 --> 00:55:11,273
that is critically important.
1219
00:55:11,273 --> 00:55:13,066
- And this is what you want
to impart, is Dick Cheney?
1220
00:55:13,066 --> 00:55:14,254
- That's the only thing
that's critically important.
1221
00:55:14,254 --> 00:55:15,987
- Is how bad Dick Cheney is?
1222
00:55:15,987 --> 00:55:18,983
- That's what I would like to leave,
1223
00:55:18,983 --> 00:55:20,994
whatever it is, whomever it is
1224
00:55:20,994 --> 00:55:24,927
might possibly watch this
documentary that you're making.
1225
00:55:24,927 --> 00:55:26,625
I'd like to have them say to themselves,
1226
00:55:26,625 --> 00:55:29,958
"Well, gee, I never thought about that."
1227
00:55:31,927 --> 00:55:34,563
Well, you bloody well
better think about it
1228
00:55:34,563 --> 00:55:37,164
because if you don't,
you're gonna lose it all.
1229
00:55:37,164 --> 00:55:38,060
- Hey, Jack.
1230
00:55:38,060 --> 00:55:38,893
- Yeah?
1231
00:55:38,893 --> 00:55:39,726
- Let me stop you.
1232
00:55:39,726 --> 00:55:40,559
- Sure.
1233
00:55:40,559 --> 00:55:43,447
- Let's go back up here
and stand in the sunshine,
1234
00:55:43,447 --> 00:55:46,442
and get in the, get where it looks good.
1235
00:55:46,442 --> 00:55:49,159
I try to persuade Jack that
if he wants to reach people,
1236
00:55:49,159 --> 00:55:50,918
he's got to tone down the politics
1237
00:55:50,918 --> 00:55:52,700
and open up to the camera.
1238
00:55:52,700 --> 00:55:54,224
But you're not going to get to anybody
1239
00:55:54,224 --> 00:55:56,097
by saying that Dick Cheney is fucked,
1240
00:55:56,097 --> 00:55:57,354
and the country is fucked, there you go.
1241
00:55:57,354 --> 00:55:58,282
- I'm not?
- No.
1242
00:55:58,282 --> 00:55:59,115
- Oh, why?
1243
00:55:59,115 --> 00:55:59,948
- You're gonna get to somebody
1244
00:55:59,948 --> 00:56:01,630
by fucking relating who you are
1245
00:56:01,630 --> 00:56:03,190
and what your past experiences have been.
1246
00:56:03,190 --> 00:56:04,023
- No, no.
1247
00:56:04,023 --> 00:56:04,871
- And what you've learned.
1248
00:56:04,871 --> 00:56:05,796
- Oh, well, like, sure.
1249
00:56:05,796 --> 00:56:06,629
You want to talk about me?
1250
00:56:06,629 --> 00:56:07,462
- Yeah.
1251
00:56:07,462 --> 00:56:08,295
- Oh, wonderful.
1252
00:56:08,295 --> 00:56:09,128
- I'm trying to talk about you-
1253
00:56:09,128 --> 00:56:11,536
- Yeah, well, I don't!
1254
00:56:11,536 --> 00:56:12,369
- Why not?
1255
00:56:12,369 --> 00:56:14,041
That's what I'm asking you.
1256
00:56:14,041 --> 00:56:15,129
That's what I don't understand.
1257
00:56:15,129 --> 00:56:17,421
- Ben, if you don't like it, pack up.
1258
00:56:17,421 --> 00:56:18,838
Get the fuck out.
1259
00:56:36,686 --> 00:56:38,340
- I need to take a step back
1260
00:56:38,340 --> 00:56:41,700
and understand how I got to this point.
1261
00:56:41,700 --> 00:56:43,783
What do I want from Jack?
1262
00:56:45,080 --> 00:56:46,749
How did I fool myself into thinking
1263
00:56:46,749 --> 00:56:48,419
I could get him to open up to the people
1264
00:56:48,419 --> 00:56:52,752
he still feels humiliated
by and doesn't understand?
1265
00:57:10,079 --> 00:57:11,843
I decide to step out of the way
1266
00:57:11,843 --> 00:57:15,626
and try letting Jack confront
his fans face-to-face.
1267
00:57:15,626 --> 00:57:18,383
I get the idea to set
up a special screening.
1268
00:57:18,383 --> 00:57:19,405
I call Jack,
1269
00:57:19,405 --> 00:57:22,299
and he reluctantly agrees to come.
1270
00:57:22,299 --> 00:57:24,059
- We're just outside Manton,
1271
00:57:24,059 --> 00:57:27,462
and we're on our way to pick up Jack
1272
00:57:27,462 --> 00:57:30,701
to take him to the Found
Footage Film Festival
1273
00:57:30,701 --> 00:57:32,118
in San Francisco,
1274
00:57:32,956 --> 00:57:37,081
which seems really unlikely
that we'd be doing this,
1275
00:57:37,081 --> 00:57:38,175
but we are.
1276
00:58:08,656 --> 00:58:10,280
When we speak on the phone,
1277
00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:12,358
he often hears these in the background,
1278
00:58:12,358 --> 00:58:15,994
and he adores the sound
of the wind chimes.
1279
00:58:15,994 --> 00:58:19,899
So I thought we'd grace
his chalet with these.
1280
00:58:19,899 --> 00:58:23,179
Also, I thought it would
be kind of a homing beacon.
1281
00:58:23,179 --> 00:58:26,938
If he was out on the property
and got a little off course,
1282
00:58:26,938 --> 00:58:28,542
the wind's blowing, he'd hear these,
1283
00:58:28,542 --> 00:58:32,020
and he'd be able find his home again.
1284
00:58:32,020 --> 00:58:35,462
So we're going to announce
our arrival with these.
1285
00:58:35,462 --> 00:58:36,335
He may shoot at us.
1286
00:58:36,335 --> 00:58:37,252
Be careful.
1287
00:59:19,042 --> 00:59:22,340
- You're so fucking
crazy, it's just amazing.
1288
00:59:22,340 --> 00:59:24,081
- I'm normal, I tell you.
1289
00:59:24,081 --> 00:59:24,914
- Normal.
1290
00:59:24,914 --> 00:59:26,089
Perfectly normal.
1291
00:59:26,089 --> 00:59:28,106
- This is your vicious,
killer, attack dog.
1292
00:59:28,106 --> 00:59:28,939
- That's it.
1293
00:59:28,939 --> 00:59:29,803
That's Buddhy.
1294
00:59:29,803 --> 00:59:31,267
- Oh, my god.
1295
00:59:31,267 --> 00:59:32,529
Well, she hasn't killed me.
1296
00:59:32,529 --> 00:59:33,408
So far so good.
1297
00:59:33,408 --> 00:59:34,531
How are you?
1298
00:59:34,531 --> 00:59:35,364
- I'm all right.
1299
00:59:35,364 --> 00:59:36,197
I'm all right, kid.
1300
00:59:36,197 --> 00:59:37,030
Where are you?
1301
00:59:37,030 --> 00:59:38,349
- I'm good.
1302
00:59:38,349 --> 00:59:40,070
Where do you want these?
1303
00:59:40,070 --> 00:59:42,590
Other than up your ass?
1304
00:59:42,590 --> 00:59:46,590
- Well, there used to be
hooks up here on the...
1305
00:59:51,842 --> 00:59:53,487
- So are you excited
about San Francisco?
1306
00:59:53,487 --> 00:59:55,385
- Oh, yeah, terribly excited.
1307
00:59:55,385 --> 00:59:56,767
I can hardly wait.
1308
00:59:59,310 --> 01:00:00,143
Sit!
1309
01:00:01,005 --> 01:00:02,088
Buddha stays.
1310
01:00:03,269 --> 01:00:04,386
Good girl.
1311
01:00:04,386 --> 01:00:06,204
Buddha stays.
1312
01:00:06,204 --> 01:00:07,863
Buddha stays.
1313
01:00:07,863 --> 01:00:09,292
- See you, Buddha.
1314
01:00:09,292 --> 01:00:10,875
- You stay, Buddhy.
1315
01:00:13,222 --> 01:00:14,055
Buddha!
1316
01:00:14,055 --> 01:00:15,382
Stay!
1317
01:00:15,382 --> 01:00:17,290
- Oh, she's snuck off the porch.
1318
01:00:17,290 --> 01:00:18,342
- Buddha!
1319
01:00:18,342 --> 01:00:19,425
Get up there!
1320
01:00:20,445 --> 01:00:21,807
- See, he knows you're blind,
1321
01:00:21,807 --> 01:00:22,729
and she thinks she can get away with it.
1322
01:00:22,729 --> 01:00:23,562
- That's it.
1323
01:00:23,562 --> 01:00:24,501
She's tricking me.
1324
01:00:24,501 --> 01:00:26,261
Get up on the porch!
1325
01:00:26,261 --> 01:00:27,685
- Well done.
1326
01:00:27,685 --> 01:00:29,268
- Fuck you, Buddha!
1327
01:00:50,678 --> 01:00:51,679
- Here we go.
1328
01:01:00,796 --> 01:01:03,283
- Consider how marvelous
it will be to be there
1329
01:01:03,283 --> 01:01:04,781
in San Francisco,
1330
01:01:04,781 --> 01:01:07,759
the home of the free and
the land of the brave.
1331
01:01:07,759 --> 01:01:10,162
A conglomerate of all that
1332
01:01:10,162 --> 01:01:13,262
that makes America the grand place it is.
1333
01:01:14,411 --> 01:01:15,244
Yeah.
1334
01:01:15,244 --> 01:01:16,077
Yeah.
1335
01:01:21,200 --> 01:01:23,261
As I understand it, there's
going to be questions
1336
01:01:23,261 --> 01:01:25,397
from the audience and what have you,
1337
01:01:25,397 --> 01:01:28,502
and of course, that begs
the, begs the question,
1338
01:01:28,502 --> 01:01:30,099
the initiating question,
1339
01:01:30,099 --> 01:01:34,958
do you suppose these people
actually can form questions,
1340
01:01:34,958 --> 01:01:39,291
and will we be able to
communicate with one another?
1341
01:01:41,540 --> 01:01:44,153
- So Jack, what if someone
wants an autograph?
1342
01:01:44,153 --> 01:01:45,238
Will you sign autographs?
1343
01:01:45,238 --> 01:01:46,738
- Fuck 'em!
1344
01:02:02,340 --> 01:02:05,538
- Giant leap for mankind.
1345
01:02:08,819 --> 01:02:10,646
Nicely done.
1346
01:02:10,646 --> 01:02:13,193
- Smell that sea air?
1347
01:02:13,193 --> 01:02:16,847
- I, no, the only thing
I can smell is incense
1348
01:02:16,847 --> 01:02:18,347
and a little hash.
1349
01:02:19,561 --> 01:02:21,644
- Here we go, Mr. Rebney.
1350
01:02:24,167 --> 01:02:27,250
It is a very, very sweet little room.
1351
01:02:28,136 --> 01:02:31,406
There's a bed with a
beautiful pink bedspread.
1352
01:02:31,406 --> 01:02:32,706
- Jesus, mother of Christ.
1353
01:02:32,706 --> 01:02:36,005
- And the wall paper
is little pink flowers.
1354
01:02:36,005 --> 01:02:37,048
- Fuck.
1355
01:02:37,048 --> 01:02:38,074
- It's perfect for you.
1356
01:03:45,165 --> 01:03:48,866
- People just don't have
any sensibility anymore.
1357
01:03:49,699 --> 01:03:50,867
Oh, shut up!
1358
01:03:51,700 --> 01:03:52,533
Shut up again!
1359
01:03:52,533 --> 01:03:54,423
- That's your fan base.
1360
01:03:54,423 --> 01:03:55,926
Be nice to them.
1361
01:03:55,926 --> 01:03:58,161
They're honking in approval.
1362
01:03:58,161 --> 01:03:59,264
- On the way to the theater,
1363
01:03:59,264 --> 01:04:02,723
we get distracted and lose
Keith and Jack for a moment.
1364
01:04:02,723 --> 01:04:03,722
When we find them,
1365
01:04:03,722 --> 01:04:06,944
Jack is in deep discussion with
one of the local residents.
1366
01:04:06,944 --> 01:04:10,744
- Logic dictates that you
are, and that is that.
1367
01:04:10,744 --> 01:04:12,441
All of it is natural fact.
1368
01:04:12,441 --> 01:04:14,281
There is nothing that is hyperbole.
1369
01:04:14,281 --> 01:04:16,879
It is all just natural, period.
1370
01:04:16,879 --> 01:04:18,369
End report.
1371
01:04:18,369 --> 01:04:23,150
- Modern logic, Western
logic is confined by the fact
1372
01:04:23,150 --> 01:04:26,508
that it says that something
is either true or false.
1373
01:04:26,508 --> 01:04:27,453
- Absolutely.
1374
01:04:27,453 --> 01:04:31,130
- There is a causal plane
which is beyond space and time
1375
01:04:31,130 --> 01:04:35,048
which destroys the concept of linearity.
1376
01:04:35,048 --> 01:04:36,726
- That's, that's, that,
1377
01:04:36,726 --> 01:04:39,605
that logic is tripping right along with a,
1378
01:04:39,605 --> 01:04:43,186
that's only got one
track, and we're wobbling.
1379
01:04:43,186 --> 01:04:45,346
And I don't follow that.
1380
01:04:45,346 --> 01:04:46,850
- There is a causal plane.
1381
01:04:46,850 --> 01:04:47,683
- The what?
1382
01:04:47,683 --> 01:04:49,881
- There is a causal plane.
1383
01:04:49,881 --> 01:04:51,002
- We have an appointment,
1384
01:04:51,002 --> 01:04:52,709
and we're going to be late to it,
1385
01:04:52,709 --> 01:04:55,359
but I must tell you that
it's been pleasurable,
1386
01:04:55,359 --> 01:04:57,085
and I thank you.
1387
01:04:57,085 --> 01:05:00,002
And I don't know why we're talking.
1388
01:05:01,968 --> 01:05:02,801
Oh, Jesus.
1389
01:05:04,308 --> 01:05:06,580
Does Orville Redenbacher live here?
1390
01:05:06,580 --> 01:05:09,860
- Well, thank you so much
for coming down here.
1391
01:05:09,860 --> 01:05:12,985
It's an honor to have both of you here.
1392
01:05:12,985 --> 01:05:13,818
- It's no honor.
1393
01:05:13,818 --> 01:05:14,651
That's absolute bullshit.
1394
01:05:14,651 --> 01:05:16,020
- It is, it is!
1395
01:05:16,020 --> 01:05:19,036
- Steinbucker-schmucker,
come here, for Christ's sake!
1396
01:05:19,036 --> 01:05:20,615
These people are out of their heads.
1397
01:05:20,615 --> 01:05:21,494
- I'm right here, Jack.
1398
01:05:21,494 --> 01:05:22,462
- Yeah, you're filming.
1399
01:05:22,462 --> 01:05:23,295
I know.
1400
01:05:23,295 --> 01:05:24,128
- We are your number one fans.
1401
01:05:24,128 --> 01:05:25,988
- Yes, of course, you're
my number one fan.
1402
01:05:25,988 --> 01:05:27,800
- We have, you've
brought so much enjoyment
1403
01:05:27,800 --> 01:05:30,141
and laughter to us that
we're so indebted to you.
1404
01:05:30,141 --> 01:05:32,465
- This schmuck over here to my right
1405
01:05:32,465 --> 01:05:35,030
has been telling me this now
for, what, two years, Ben?
1406
01:05:35,030 --> 01:05:35,863
Three years?
1407
01:05:35,863 --> 01:05:36,696
- Two years.
1408
01:05:36,696 --> 01:05:37,529
- Two years.
1409
01:05:37,529 --> 01:05:38,362
- It's so true.
1410
01:05:38,362 --> 01:05:39,203
And you'll see tonight.
1411
01:05:39,203 --> 01:05:40,890
- "Oh, you've brought me such enjoyment!"
1412
01:05:40,890 --> 01:05:41,928
- You're gonna see tonight.
1413
01:05:41,928 --> 01:05:43,927
- I can't begin to tell you how marvelous-
1414
01:05:43,927 --> 01:05:45,942
- When you're here tonight,
you'll hear the laughs.
1415
01:05:45,942 --> 01:05:46,775
- Yeah?
1416
01:05:46,775 --> 01:05:47,772
- You'll hear people enjoy it.
1417
01:05:47,772 --> 01:05:48,605
It makes people happy.
1418
01:05:48,605 --> 01:05:49,647
- How many are you
going to have, eight people?
1419
01:05:49,647 --> 01:05:51,267
- No, we have a full house.
1420
01:05:51,267 --> 01:05:52,387
It's going to be sold out.
1421
01:05:52,387 --> 01:05:54,964
- Uh, who are these
crazies, these lunatics,
1422
01:05:54,964 --> 01:05:56,166
that are going to be here?
1423
01:05:56,166 --> 01:05:57,299
Explain them to me.
1424
01:05:57,299 --> 01:05:58,174
Seriously, now.
1425
01:05:58,174 --> 01:05:59,423
Seriously, now!
1426
01:05:59,423 --> 01:06:02,424
I mean, I'm not putting, this is because
1427
01:06:02,424 --> 01:06:05,910
if I'm gonna do some kind of
a dumbfuck dog and pony show,
1428
01:06:05,910 --> 01:06:07,400
I'm gonna know who I'm talking to.
1429
01:06:08,485 --> 01:06:10,523
- I'm here to see the Winnebago guy.
1430
01:06:10,523 --> 01:06:12,702
I'm hoping that he's going
to say the F-word a lot.
1431
01:06:13,808 --> 01:06:15,558
- We're huge Rebney fans.
1432
01:06:15,558 --> 01:06:17,162
- I'm here for Jack Rebney, all the way.
1433
01:06:17,162 --> 01:06:18,563
I'm glad he's alive and doing well,
1434
01:06:18,563 --> 01:06:20,421
and I hope he's still bitter.
1435
01:06:20,421 --> 01:06:21,254
I don't know.
1436
01:06:21,254 --> 01:06:22,087
He, uh,
1437
01:06:22,087 --> 01:06:24,604
he's got a special spot in
my heart that's for sure.
1438
01:06:24,604 --> 01:06:25,478
- I love this clip.
1439
01:06:25,478 --> 01:06:26,370
I watch it.
1440
01:06:26,370 --> 01:06:27,764
Like every time I'm in
a bad mood, I watch it
1441
01:06:27,764 --> 01:06:28,597
and it makes me laugh.
1442
01:06:28,597 --> 01:06:29,430
I really do.
1443
01:06:29,430 --> 01:06:30,447
It's kind of sad, it's kind of sad.
1444
01:06:30,447 --> 01:06:31,352
- Are you excited
to see him in person?
1445
01:06:31,352 --> 01:06:32,253
- If I can get in.
1446
01:06:32,253 --> 01:06:33,483
If I can get in.
1447
01:06:33,483 --> 01:06:35,816
This is not looking so good.
1448
01:06:36,861 --> 01:06:39,387
- They're gonna go nuts for you tonight.
1449
01:06:39,387 --> 01:06:41,743
You'll be bathed in applause
by your adoring fans.
1450
01:06:41,743 --> 01:06:42,992
- Really?
1451
01:06:42,992 --> 01:06:44,673
"Bathed in applause?"
1452
01:06:44,673 --> 01:06:48,019
- Mean to us, meeting you
is like meeting a movie star
1453
01:06:48,019 --> 01:06:50,882
because we've watched your
video more than we've seen,
1454
01:06:50,882 --> 01:06:54,089
you know, "Indiana Jones",
so you're our Harrison Ford.
1455
01:06:54,089 --> 01:06:55,089
You know?
1456
01:06:55,089 --> 01:06:56,803
This is the holy grail for us.
1457
01:06:56,803 --> 01:06:57,770
- I'd like one, please.
1458
01:06:57,770 --> 01:07:00,167
- Thanks for coming.
1459
01:07:00,167 --> 01:07:01,982
- I'm kind of hoping
that he'll be in, like,
1460
01:07:01,982 --> 01:07:03,544
a real ornery mood.
1461
01:07:03,544 --> 01:07:05,041
And, if they'll let some flies go,
1462
01:07:05,041 --> 01:07:06,932
that'll really piss him off.
1463
01:07:06,932 --> 01:07:09,933
- I think, like, people
would kind of expect him
1464
01:07:09,933 --> 01:07:12,161
to just be really, really
upset all the time,
1465
01:07:12,161 --> 01:07:14,089
and, like, I don't know if,
like, many, any of these people
1466
01:07:14,089 --> 01:07:15,842
are, like, expecting him to go off
1467
01:07:15,842 --> 01:07:17,423
and start yelling at all of them?
1468
01:07:17,423 --> 01:07:18,815
If I was him, that's what I would do.
1469
01:07:18,815 --> 01:07:20,069
- 'Kay, here we go.
1470
01:07:20,069 --> 01:07:21,010
Three, two.
1471
01:07:21,010 --> 01:07:23,274
- Why don't you shoot the fucking film?
1472
01:07:23,274 --> 01:07:24,644
- Getting you to smile is a lost cause.
1473
01:07:24,644 --> 01:07:25,596
- I don't believe that.
1474
01:07:25,596 --> 01:07:30,152
- Can you give any reason
at all why I should smile?
1475
01:07:30,152 --> 01:07:34,911
- I haven't stopped
smiling since I saw you.
1476
01:07:34,911 --> 01:07:36,034
- It's kind of like, you know what it is?
1477
01:07:36,034 --> 01:07:38,432
The Internet's like the
modern-day freak show.
1478
01:07:38,432 --> 01:07:40,430
Yeah, except you don't have
to pay a nickel to get in.
1479
01:07:40,430 --> 01:07:43,054
It's like meeting the
three-headed boy or something.
1480
01:07:43,054 --> 01:07:44,153
It's great.
1481
01:07:44,153 --> 01:07:45,590
- Like, that's Jack Rebney right there!
1482
01:07:45,590 --> 01:07:46,739
We're talking to him.
1483
01:07:46,739 --> 01:07:48,881
- Like, he swears that
much in real life too.
1484
01:07:48,881 --> 01:07:50,005
- I was, I was,
1485
01:07:50,005 --> 01:07:52,162
yeah, I was not disappointed at all.
1486
01:07:52,162 --> 01:07:54,380
- Oh, I'm curious to see how
Jack reacts to the whole thing,
1487
01:07:54,380 --> 01:07:56,130
to confront his fans.
1488
01:07:57,501 --> 01:07:58,927
- Sorry to announce it to you, folks,
1489
01:07:58,927 --> 01:08:01,010
but the15 is sold out.
1490
01:08:03,060 --> 01:08:04,515
- Here we go, here we go.
1491
01:08:04,515 --> 01:08:05,348
Buckle up.
1492
01:08:07,291 --> 01:08:08,124
- Thank you for coming out.
1493
01:08:08,124 --> 01:08:08,957
- Thanks for coming out.
1494
01:08:08,957 --> 01:08:09,815
- My name is Joe.
1495
01:08:09,815 --> 01:08:10,648
- My name's Nick.
1496
01:08:10,648 --> 01:08:12,846
- And we're back for another
round of stupid videos
1497
01:08:12,846 --> 01:08:14,817
that we found at thrift
stores and garage sales
1498
01:08:14,817 --> 01:08:16,259
and those kind of places.
1499
01:08:16,259 --> 01:08:17,740
And I don't know if you heard or not,
1500
01:08:17,740 --> 01:08:19,301
but there's a special guest tonight.
1501
01:08:19,301 --> 01:08:21,002
If you haven't heard, we're
not going to tell you.
1502
01:08:21,002 --> 01:08:21,835
Special guest.
1503
01:08:21,835 --> 01:08:23,010
You don't want to go anywhere.
1504
01:08:23,010 --> 01:08:23,862
- No, sir.
1505
01:08:33,618 --> 01:08:37,478
- The medicine for
the heart, body and mind.
1506
01:08:37,478 --> 01:08:39,736
It takes away all your stress.
1507
01:08:39,736 --> 01:08:41,365
Just laugh it out!
1508
01:08:41,365 --> 01:08:42,198
Ha!
1509
01:08:42,198 --> 01:08:44,625
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
1510
01:08:44,625 --> 01:08:45,458
And gone.
1511
01:08:46,819 --> 01:08:49,152
- Well, who's, who's on now?
1512
01:08:51,418 --> 01:08:52,251
- Don't know.
1513
01:08:56,898 --> 01:08:59,130
- Okay, you know, many years ago,
1514
01:08:59,130 --> 01:09:00,926
some friends of ours give us some footage
1515
01:09:00,926 --> 01:09:04,679
from a promotional video for
the Winnebago brand of RVs.
1516
01:09:04,679 --> 01:09:05,732
- Here's the back story.
1517
01:09:05,732 --> 01:09:09,490
On the first day of this
grueling, hot, two-week shoot,
1518
01:09:09,490 --> 01:09:13,664
the crew realized that the
host of this promotional video
1519
01:09:13,664 --> 01:09:15,028
had a bit of a temper.
1520
01:09:15,028 --> 01:09:16,409
So, of course, what do they do?
1521
01:09:16,409 --> 01:09:18,784
They continue to roll
in between each take,
1522
01:09:18,784 --> 01:09:22,267
and subsequently capture this
man's descent into madness.
1523
01:09:22,267 --> 01:09:24,187
- And so we got some of the raw footage,
1524
01:09:24,187 --> 01:09:25,712
and we decided to put together
1525
01:09:25,712 --> 01:09:28,786
a collection of our favorite
moments of Jack Rebney,
1526
01:09:28,786 --> 01:09:30,901
the world's angriest RV salesman.
1527
01:09:30,901 --> 01:09:31,981
- Jack Rebney!
1528
01:09:34,846 --> 01:09:37,311
- The Winnebago concepts
and engineering departments
1529
01:09:37,311 --> 01:09:39,705
have developed a
multi-functional bathroom,
1530
01:09:39,705 --> 01:09:41,441
privacy, I don't even know
what the fuck I'm reading.
1531
01:09:42,417 --> 01:09:44,984
I wonder what the fuck
the real dialogue is.
1532
01:09:44,984 --> 01:09:46,463
What the fuck is this thing?
1533
01:09:46,463 --> 01:09:48,952
On the windshield, for fuck's sake!
1534
01:09:48,952 --> 01:09:50,005
Oh, fuck, what?
1535
01:09:50,005 --> 01:09:51,589
What the fuck did I say?
1536
01:09:51,589 --> 01:09:53,519
That didn't sound for shit.
1537
01:09:53,519 --> 01:09:55,651
We suppose we open,
1538
01:09:57,714 --> 01:10:00,933
got to do it again, right now.
1539
01:10:06,334 --> 01:10:07,919
Oh, fuck!
1540
01:10:07,919 --> 01:10:08,752
Fuck!
1541
01:10:08,752 --> 01:10:09,585
Fuck!
1542
01:10:09,585 --> 01:10:10,418
Fuck!
1543
01:10:10,418 --> 01:10:11,251
Oh, fuck!
1544
01:10:11,251 --> 01:10:12,084
Shit!
1545
01:10:12,084 --> 01:10:13,980
What does the goddamn line say, Tony?
1546
01:10:13,980 --> 01:10:15,623
What is the goddamn line?
1547
01:10:15,623 --> 01:10:17,388
I don't give a shit what the line is!
1548
01:10:17,388 --> 01:10:18,838
I fucked up the word rear.
1549
01:10:18,838 --> 01:10:21,079
I can't even read a fucking VO straight.
1550
01:10:21,079 --> 01:10:22,478
What the fuck was that?
1551
01:10:22,478 --> 01:10:24,399
And we've got flies all over the place.
1552
01:10:24,399 --> 01:10:26,216
Son of a bitch!
1553
01:10:26,216 --> 01:10:28,956
Get out of here, you goddamn jackass!
1554
01:10:35,331 --> 01:10:36,985
The accoutrement that you will need,
1555
01:10:36,985 --> 01:10:38,349
accoutrement?
1556
01:10:38,349 --> 01:10:39,234
What is that shit?
1557
01:10:39,234 --> 01:10:40,067
I don't know.
1558
01:10:40,067 --> 01:10:41,044
Shit!
1559
01:10:41,044 --> 01:10:42,222
It's just all gone.
1560
01:10:42,222 --> 01:10:45,398
I get so goddamn
diarrhetic when I sit here.
1561
01:10:45,398 --> 01:10:47,565
My mouth just never stops.
1562
01:10:50,842 --> 01:10:52,111
Not this shit.
1563
01:10:52,111 --> 01:10:54,482
They ain't fucking with it.
1564
01:10:54,482 --> 01:10:57,715
The Mini Winnie, part
of American tradition,
1565
01:10:57,715 --> 01:11:00,887
and today, on the cutting
edge of design and function
1566
01:11:00,887 --> 01:11:02,887
in a class C motor home.
1567
01:11:04,861 --> 01:11:06,040
Do you believe any of that shit?
1568
01:11:08,624 --> 01:11:09,957
- God bless 'em.
1569
01:11:11,261 --> 01:11:13,247
Well, we've an update for
you about Jack Rebney.
1570
01:11:13,247 --> 01:11:14,533
We didn't know if Jack was alive or dead.
1571
01:11:14,533 --> 01:11:15,366
We had no-
1572
01:11:15,366 --> 01:11:16,508
- Oh, we thought he was dead for sure
1573
01:11:16,508 --> 01:11:17,884
after this video shoot.
1574
01:11:17,884 --> 01:11:19,521
Heart attack or something.
1575
01:11:19,521 --> 01:11:21,130
- Yeah, the frustration alone, but,
1576
01:11:21,130 --> 01:11:22,007
no, he was alive.
1577
01:11:22,007 --> 01:11:24,088
He was living in northern California,
1578
01:11:24,088 --> 01:11:26,428
and through some fate of circumstance,
1579
01:11:26,428 --> 01:11:29,461
tonight, we have Jack
Rebney in the audience.
1580
01:11:29,461 --> 01:11:31,463
- Ladies and gentleman, Jack Rebney!
1581
01:11:36,187 --> 01:11:39,020
This is a long time coming for us.
1582
01:11:41,031 --> 01:11:42,999
- This is history right here, folks.
1583
01:11:45,417 --> 01:11:47,235
- Jack, we're going to interview you here.
1584
01:11:47,235 --> 01:11:48,880
If we can ask a few questions?
1585
01:11:48,880 --> 01:11:49,794
We're heading here.
1586
01:11:49,794 --> 01:11:51,508
- Yes, it'll be wonderful, I'm sure.
1587
01:11:53,138 --> 01:11:54,966
- He seems to be
in a somewhat good mood.
1588
01:11:54,966 --> 01:11:55,942
- Will you leave me alone?
1589
01:11:55,942 --> 01:11:57,414
Leave me alone!
1590
01:11:57,414 --> 01:11:58,247
I can do this!
1591
01:11:58,247 --> 01:11:59,099
- Are you ready to come over?
1592
01:11:59,099 --> 01:11:59,932
- Yeah, yeah.
1593
01:11:59,932 --> 01:12:00,765
Let's do it, baby.
1594
01:12:00,765 --> 01:12:02,045
- Okay, come on over.
1595
01:12:02,045 --> 01:12:04,462
Jack, here's your microphone.
1596
01:12:06,116 --> 01:12:06,949
- Jack?
1597
01:12:06,949 --> 01:12:07,859
- Yeah, yeah, yeah?
1598
01:12:07,859 --> 01:12:08,692
- Okay.
1599
01:12:08,692 --> 01:12:09,525
Jack's there.
1600
01:12:09,525 --> 01:12:11,887
- What the hell do you need?
1601
01:12:11,887 --> 01:12:13,454
I know what a microphone is.
1602
01:12:13,454 --> 01:12:14,287
Go ahead.
1603
01:12:14,287 --> 01:12:15,120
- Okay, there you go.
1604
01:12:15,120 --> 01:12:15,976
- So start at the beginning, Jack.
1605
01:12:15,976 --> 01:12:17,264
Tell us about that shoot.
1606
01:12:17,264 --> 01:12:18,390
- Start at the beginning?
1607
01:12:18,390 --> 01:12:19,657
In the beginning, there was darkness.
1608
01:12:20,694 --> 01:12:21,582
- A little bit later than that.
1609
01:12:21,582 --> 01:12:22,589
A little bit later.
1610
01:12:22,589 --> 01:12:23,422
- Oh, I'm sorry.
1611
01:12:23,422 --> 01:12:24,255
- Let's start at Winnebago.
1612
01:12:24,255 --> 01:12:25,088
- I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
1613
01:12:25,088 --> 01:12:25,975
- Let's start on this shoot.
1614
01:12:25,975 --> 01:12:27,011
- I lose it sometimes.
1615
01:12:27,011 --> 01:12:29,167
I get whatever it is.
1616
01:12:29,167 --> 01:12:31,713
I actually, um, it is rather surprising
1617
01:12:31,713 --> 01:12:33,971
that I am, in fact, still alive.
1618
01:12:33,971 --> 01:12:36,949
In answer to what seems to
be the salient question,
1619
01:12:36,949 --> 01:12:39,367
"Are you truly the
angriest man in the world,"
1620
01:12:42,728 --> 01:12:43,851
- Tell us!
1621
01:12:43,851 --> 01:12:44,850
- Yeah, I'm going to.
1622
01:12:44,850 --> 01:12:46,965
I'm going to lay that on you.
1623
01:12:46,965 --> 01:12:49,049
You have to have some
historical perspective
1624
01:12:49,049 --> 01:12:51,267
in terms of how this shoot was done,
1625
01:12:51,267 --> 01:12:52,834
where it was done, et cetera.
1626
01:12:52,834 --> 01:12:55,351
The Winnebago corporation is located
1627
01:12:55,351 --> 01:12:58,095
in a little thing called
Forest City, Iowa.
1628
01:12:58,095 --> 01:13:00,557
The average temperature
during the summertime
1629
01:13:00,557 --> 01:13:02,536
is about 100 degrees.
1630
01:13:02,536 --> 01:13:07,180
The average humidity is
about 98 degrees, or percent.
1631
01:13:07,180 --> 01:13:10,779
There's no wind, and
you're pretty well aware
1632
01:13:10,779 --> 01:13:13,070
of the fact that there are
about 150 million flies.
1633
01:13:13,903 --> 01:13:15,143
You don't think you can get pissed off
1634
01:13:15,143 --> 01:13:18,316
in that kind of a situation, huh?
1635
01:13:18,316 --> 01:13:20,840
But in terms of anger,
1636
01:13:20,840 --> 01:13:21,840
truly today,
1637
01:13:23,372 --> 01:13:25,455
in this cultural climate,
1638
01:13:26,439 --> 01:13:27,939
I really am angry.
1639
01:13:29,115 --> 01:13:29,989
Go ahead.
1640
01:13:29,989 --> 01:13:30,822
Questions.
1641
01:13:30,822 --> 01:13:31,655
What?
1642
01:13:34,069 --> 01:13:36,388
- Okay, I think the thing,
the thing to keep in mind here
1643
01:13:36,388 --> 01:13:37,580
is we all get frustrated,
1644
01:13:37,580 --> 01:13:39,626
we all have moments where
we want to say that,
1645
01:13:39,626 --> 01:13:42,646
but no one can do it as
colorfully as you did.
1646
01:13:42,646 --> 01:13:44,619
- One of the greatest
swearers of all time.
1647
01:13:44,619 --> 01:13:46,135
- I think so and-
1648
01:13:46,135 --> 01:13:48,188
- It's a learned, it's a learned thing.
1649
01:13:49,472 --> 01:13:50,796
- Uh, well, Jack, I mean,
1650
01:13:50,796 --> 01:13:52,395
we certainly appreciate you coming here.
1651
01:13:52,395 --> 01:13:54,972
We wanted to maybe give you
a token of our appreciation.
1652
01:13:54,972 --> 01:13:57,544
- I just want to ask you one
question before we do that.
1653
01:13:57,544 --> 01:13:59,037
Do you hate us?
1654
01:14:01,080 --> 01:14:04,941
- No, I, actually, the
only person I can think of,
1655
01:14:04,941 --> 01:14:07,797
immediately comes to mind is Dick Cheney.
1656
01:14:13,854 --> 01:14:14,687
- Well, Jack-
1657
01:14:14,687 --> 01:14:16,000
- These are, shut up for a minute.
1658
01:14:16,000 --> 01:14:16,833
These are-
1659
01:14:16,833 --> 01:14:17,666
- He doesn't hate us.
1660
01:14:17,666 --> 01:14:18,546
We're cool.
1661
01:14:18,546 --> 01:14:19,979
- These are my people.
1662
01:14:19,979 --> 01:14:21,512
I mean, I can tell that right now.
1663
01:14:21,512 --> 01:14:22,516
I mean, you know,
1664
01:14:22,516 --> 01:14:25,058
we may be separated by about 127 years,
1665
01:14:25,058 --> 01:14:27,991
but they understand, they've got it.
1666
01:14:27,991 --> 01:14:29,099
They've got it nailed.
1667
01:14:29,099 --> 01:14:31,316
- Well, Jack, we did want to,
the summer months are upon us.
1668
01:14:31,316 --> 01:14:32,516
It's gonna be hot and humid again,
1669
01:14:32,516 --> 01:14:34,178
and so as a token of our appreciation,
1670
01:14:34,178 --> 01:14:37,954
we wanted to present you with
this honorary fly swatter
1671
01:14:37,954 --> 01:14:38,827
that we really thought,
this is for you, Jack.
1672
01:14:38,827 --> 01:14:39,910
- Oh.
1673
01:14:39,910 --> 01:14:42,069
- We hope it'll help keep
all the jackasses away
1674
01:14:42,069 --> 01:14:43,289
for the rest of the summer.
1675
01:14:43,289 --> 01:14:44,866
- Oh, thank you so much.
1676
01:14:44,866 --> 01:14:46,195
That is wonderful.
1677
01:14:46,195 --> 01:14:47,438
That's wonderful.
1678
01:14:47,438 --> 01:14:48,735
Thank you.
1679
01:14:48,735 --> 01:14:50,140
I'm touched.
1680
01:14:51,339 --> 01:14:53,047
- This one last question, Jack.
1681
01:14:53,047 --> 01:14:55,299
What did you mean by accoutrement?
1682
01:15:00,419 --> 01:15:01,859
- There's a question here
1683
01:15:01,859 --> 01:15:04,117
as to whether or not it's accoutre-ma
1684
01:15:04,117 --> 01:15:06,520
or whether it's accoutre-maa.
1685
01:15:06,520 --> 01:15:09,040
And there maybe somebody here
who actually speaks French
1686
01:15:09,040 --> 01:15:11,905
rather than some dumbshit like myself.
1687
01:15:11,905 --> 01:15:13,292
- Accoutre-ma?
1688
01:15:13,292 --> 01:15:14,293
- Accoutre-mon.
1689
01:15:14,293 --> 01:15:15,554
- Accoutre-mon, okay.
1690
01:15:15,554 --> 01:15:17,075
- Accoutre-ma?
1691
01:15:17,075 --> 01:15:18,667
Is that it?
1692
01:15:18,667 --> 01:15:20,134
Listen, baby, when you're in Iowa,
1693
01:15:20,134 --> 01:15:21,434
it's fucking accoutre-ma.
1694
01:15:26,381 --> 01:15:28,325
- The man is a legend.
1695
01:15:28,325 --> 01:15:29,158
Legendary!
1696
01:15:32,990 --> 01:15:34,308
I'm shaking right now.
1697
01:15:34,308 --> 01:15:35,967
I'm shaking.
1698
01:15:35,967 --> 01:15:37,982
I can die and go to heaven.
1699
01:15:37,982 --> 01:15:39,576
- Contain yourself, now.
1700
01:15:39,576 --> 01:15:41,146
- Uh, god bless that man.
1701
01:15:41,146 --> 01:15:44,244
- How do you follow that up?
1702
01:15:44,244 --> 01:15:45,411
- Right again.
1703
01:15:46,566 --> 01:15:47,399
To your right.
1704
01:15:47,399 --> 01:15:48,232
There you go.
1705
01:15:50,640 --> 01:15:52,765
- Well, that was terrific.
1706
01:15:52,765 --> 01:15:54,141
- You killed.
1707
01:15:54,141 --> 01:15:56,946
- Look, you've
got the fly swatter.
1708
01:15:56,946 --> 01:15:58,863
- Kid, I'm overwhelmed.
1709
01:16:00,943 --> 01:16:03,146
- What I've tried to convey
to you this whole time
1710
01:16:03,146 --> 01:16:06,813
is that the audience
really appreciates you,
1711
01:16:07,665 --> 01:16:09,683
the situation, the whole thing.
1712
01:16:09,683 --> 01:16:11,128
None of it was,
1713
01:16:11,128 --> 01:16:12,572
to steal a page from your book,
1714
01:16:12,572 --> 01:16:13,572
denigrative.
1715
01:16:14,586 --> 01:16:17,892
Those people actually admire what you did
1716
01:16:17,892 --> 01:16:20,559
and are incredibly entertained.
1717
01:16:20,559 --> 01:16:22,892
So two for the price of one.
1718
01:16:23,728 --> 01:16:24,620
- Can you hear that, Jack?
1719
01:16:24,620 --> 01:16:25,453
- No, what?
1720
01:16:25,453 --> 01:16:28,009
- When he said "Jack
Rebney," everybody just,
1721
01:16:28,009 --> 01:16:29,823
thunderous applause.
1722
01:16:36,865 --> 01:16:39,299
- I have to come and meet
the famous Jack Rebney.
1723
01:16:39,299 --> 01:16:40,132
Hi, Jack.
1724
01:16:40,132 --> 01:16:40,965
I'm Noelle.
1725
01:16:40,965 --> 01:16:41,798
It's nice to meet you.
1726
01:16:41,798 --> 01:16:42,631
- Hello.
1727
01:16:42,631 --> 01:16:43,464
Hi, how are you?
1728
01:16:43,464 --> 01:16:44,555
- I'm wonderful, thank you.
1729
01:16:44,555 --> 01:16:45,430
- I hope you enjoyed it.
1730
01:16:45,430 --> 01:16:47,042
- Oh, my god, you've no idea.
1731
01:16:47,042 --> 01:16:49,052
This clip, every time I'm in a bad mood,
1732
01:16:49,052 --> 01:16:52,361
I watch you swear and it makes me smile,
1733
01:16:52,361 --> 01:16:53,879
so thank you so much.
1734
01:16:53,879 --> 01:16:56,902
- You're most welcome.
1735
01:16:56,902 --> 01:16:57,978
- Hi, I'm Laura.
1736
01:16:57,978 --> 01:16:59,120
- Hello, how are you?
1737
01:16:59,120 --> 01:17:00,156
- It's so nice to meet you.
1738
01:17:00,156 --> 01:17:01,320
- I'm very happy to meet you.
1739
01:17:01,320 --> 01:17:03,012
- I'm so glad you came tonight.
1740
01:17:03,012 --> 01:17:03,845
- Pardon me?
1741
01:17:03,845 --> 01:17:04,678
- I'm so glad you came.
1742
01:17:04,678 --> 01:17:05,835
- Well, it was a pleasure.
1743
01:17:05,835 --> 01:17:06,836
- Very excited.
1744
01:17:06,836 --> 01:17:07,835
- It's kind of fun.
1745
01:17:07,835 --> 01:17:09,893
Something unusual for an old man.
1746
01:17:09,893 --> 01:17:10,893
- Yes.
1747
01:17:10,893 --> 01:17:12,077
- But, um, it was-
1748
01:17:12,077 --> 01:17:13,976
- Do you love your celebrity?
1749
01:17:13,976 --> 01:17:17,505
- Well, actually, at this juncture,
1750
01:17:17,505 --> 01:17:21,441
it doesn't seem to be anything
that really turns me on, but-
1751
01:17:22,333 --> 01:17:23,571
- Hi, I'm Rachel.
1752
01:17:23,571 --> 01:17:24,449
- Hi, how are you?
1753
01:17:24,449 --> 01:17:25,282
- Great.
1754
01:17:25,282 --> 01:17:26,306
So nice to meet you.
1755
01:17:26,306 --> 01:17:27,804
- Well, I'm very happy to meet you.
1756
01:17:27,804 --> 01:17:28,924
- You mind taking a picture with me?
1757
01:17:28,924 --> 01:17:29,790
- Not at all, not at all.
1758
01:17:29,790 --> 01:17:30,725
- Thank you.
1759
01:17:30,725 --> 01:17:33,548
- One, two, three.
1760
01:17:33,548 --> 01:17:34,838
- Oh, he was awesome,
1761
01:17:34,838 --> 01:17:36,425
and he has a way with words, that man.
1762
01:17:37,639 --> 01:17:40,190
- I thought he was a kind soul.
1763
01:17:40,190 --> 01:17:41,189
- He was great.
1764
01:17:41,189 --> 01:17:42,269
He was quite a sport.
1765
01:17:42,269 --> 01:17:44,361
Tried to, went a little Bono on us
1766
01:17:44,361 --> 01:17:45,966
with the political messages,
1767
01:17:45,966 --> 01:17:47,519
but it was good.
1768
01:17:47,519 --> 01:17:49,220
- See, now I feel like a huge jerk,
1769
01:17:49,220 --> 01:17:51,960
'cause he actually seemed
like a really sweet guy.
1770
01:17:51,960 --> 01:17:54,498
- Yeah, just like my grandpa.
1771
01:17:54,498 --> 01:17:56,600
- Just like, he's everybody's grandpa.
1772
01:17:56,600 --> 01:17:58,087
Everybody's angry grandpa.
1773
01:18:11,699 --> 01:18:12,698
- Well-spoken.
1774
01:18:12,698 --> 01:18:13,756
- So well-spoken, it was almost scary.
1775
01:18:13,756 --> 01:18:14,908
- Brilliant.
1776
01:18:14,908 --> 01:18:17,143
- Jack, we say accoutre-mon, right,
1777
01:18:17,143 --> 01:18:20,608
and it means, like, ridiculous
little costume thing.
1778
01:18:20,608 --> 01:18:21,636
- I wanted to scream out,
1779
01:18:21,636 --> 01:18:23,226
we love you, Jack Rebney, seriously.
1780
01:18:23,226 --> 01:18:24,415
- I hope you enjoyed yourselves.
1781
01:18:24,415 --> 01:18:25,248
- I did.
1782
01:18:25,248 --> 01:18:26,640
- Good, good.
1783
01:18:26,640 --> 01:18:29,390
It's better to laugh than to cry.
1784
01:18:34,190 --> 01:18:36,184
- And we're turning to our right.
1785
01:18:36,184 --> 01:18:38,101
- Turning to the right.
1786
01:18:39,644 --> 01:18:41,402
- What do you say we-
- Life continues.
1787
01:18:41,402 --> 01:18:42,777
- Let's get a glass of wine.
1788
01:18:42,777 --> 01:18:44,232
- I think we should get a glass of wine.
1789
01:18:44,232 --> 01:18:47,149
I think we deserve a glass of wine.
1790
01:18:50,006 --> 01:18:51,313
- Move to your right.
1791
01:18:51,313 --> 01:18:54,480
- Double doors and move to your right.
1792
01:18:58,047 --> 01:19:00,156
- Well, let me ask you something.
1793
01:19:00,156 --> 01:19:01,744
- Yeah, you can.
1794
01:19:01,744 --> 01:19:02,744
- On the way down,
1795
01:19:02,744 --> 01:19:07,411
you mentioned that you had a
certain preconceived notion
1796
01:19:08,277 --> 01:19:13,061
about who this audience
was, what they were about.
1797
01:19:13,061 --> 01:19:16,061
It wasn't necessarily complimentary.
1798
01:19:17,298 --> 01:19:19,143
What do you think now?
1799
01:19:19,143 --> 01:19:21,442
- I was concerned that they were
1800
01:19:21,442 --> 01:19:24,344
room-temperature IQ'D idiots
1801
01:19:24,344 --> 01:19:26,045
and, as it turns out,
1802
01:19:26,045 --> 01:19:29,821
they were clever, quick, observant people.
1803
01:19:29,821 --> 01:19:30,654
- Ah, okay.
1804
01:19:30,654 --> 01:19:33,237
Well, that answers my question.
1805
01:19:35,782 --> 01:19:37,063
- Good.
1806
01:19:37,063 --> 01:19:38,227
Now, why the hell they'd
1807
01:19:38,227 --> 01:19:39,803
watch a lousy fucking video like that
1808
01:19:39,803 --> 01:19:42,220
is something I'll never know.
1809
01:20:20,163 --> 01:20:21,036
Buddhy!
1810
01:20:21,036 --> 01:20:22,272
Ah, Buddhs.
1811
01:20:22,272 --> 01:20:23,105
Hello, Budds.
1812
01:20:23,105 --> 01:20:25,020
That's a Buddser.
1813
01:20:25,020 --> 01:20:26,819
Did you think you were deserted?
1814
01:20:26,819 --> 01:20:28,880
Did you have a good night's sleep?
1815
01:20:28,880 --> 01:20:30,862
Oh-ho-ho, da buddher.
1816
01:20:35,342 --> 01:20:38,581
- You made a lot of
people happy this weekend.
1817
01:20:38,581 --> 01:20:40,355
- Well, it's interesting.
1818
01:20:40,355 --> 01:20:42,325
We keep going back to this,
1819
01:20:42,325 --> 01:20:44,218
but, in fact, what it is
1820
01:20:44,218 --> 01:20:48,635
is that there is apparently
really a true camaraderie
1821
01:20:50,243 --> 01:20:51,849
with this people who see that
1822
01:20:51,849 --> 01:20:56,265
and who commiserate with
this poor, belabored person
1823
01:20:56,265 --> 01:21:00,595
who says pretty much
what comes to his mind
1824
01:21:00,595 --> 01:21:02,836
when he's met with
adversity and what have you,
1825
01:21:02,836 --> 01:21:04,084
and that's good.
1826
01:21:04,084 --> 01:21:05,298
And I think that's probably,
1827
01:21:05,298 --> 01:21:07,739
isn't that interesting that when I say it,
1828
01:21:07,739 --> 01:21:09,660
and I listen to myself babbling,
1829
01:21:09,660 --> 01:21:11,581
that's really the human condition,
1830
01:21:11,581 --> 01:21:12,414
is it not?
1831
01:21:13,433 --> 01:21:15,675
Right there in simple terms.
1832
01:21:15,675 --> 01:21:16,800
What we're doing is,
1833
01:21:16,800 --> 01:21:19,778
we're facing an enormous
amount of adversity,
1834
01:21:19,778 --> 01:21:24,028
and it seems disastrous
that we don't let ourselves
1835
01:21:25,119 --> 01:21:29,118
say what we really feel,
what we truly feel,
1836
01:21:29,118 --> 01:21:29,951
and I'm,
1837
01:21:33,277 --> 01:21:36,741
I'm happy to say that I take
some small degree of pride
1838
01:21:36,741 --> 01:21:39,563
in the fact that when I'm faced with that,
1839
01:21:39,563 --> 01:21:41,641
and when I'm faced with it today,
1840
01:21:41,641 --> 01:21:44,724
I say exactly what I have on my mind.
1841
01:21:45,780 --> 01:21:48,178
Isn't there some way you guys can leave?
1842
01:21:48,178 --> 01:21:50,397
Can't you go now?
1843
01:21:50,397 --> 01:21:51,230
All right, kid.
1844
01:21:51,230 --> 01:21:52,063
- All right, pal.
1845
01:21:52,063 --> 01:21:52,896
- All righty.
1846
01:21:52,896 --> 01:21:53,729
- See you.
- Thank you.
1847
01:21:53,729 --> 01:21:54,562
- Thanks.
1848
01:21:54,562 --> 01:21:56,479
- Come here, come here.
1849
01:22:23,165 --> 01:22:24,704
Jack Rebney may never be remembered
1850
01:22:24,704 --> 01:22:28,384
as a political firebrand
or important thinker.
1851
01:22:28,384 --> 01:22:31,466
But there's a good chance
he won't be forgotten.
1852
01:22:31,466 --> 01:22:34,624
His swearing, ranting, unrestrained self
1853
01:22:34,624 --> 01:22:36,639
somehow reminds us that we are not alone
1854
01:22:36,639 --> 01:22:39,389
in our frustrations and blunders,
1855
01:22:40,447 --> 01:22:42,447
and maybe that's enough.
1856
01:22:46,147 --> 01:22:47,424
- Do you believe any of that shit?
1857
01:23:23,957 --> 01:23:24,964
- You ever clean that lens?
1858
01:23:26,715 --> 01:23:27,717
- Right in the shot.
1859
01:23:27,717 --> 01:23:28,790
I feel like Tony.
1860
01:23:29,895 --> 01:23:31,122
- Stick it up what?
1861
01:23:31,122 --> 01:23:31,955
- What do you mean,
1862
01:23:31,955 --> 01:23:35,038
I'm gonna fall off the fucking thing?
1863
01:23:36,549 --> 01:23:37,382
- Fuck.
1864
01:23:37,382 --> 01:23:38,215
- Fuck it all.
1865
01:23:38,215 --> 01:23:39,048
That's it.
1866
01:23:39,048 --> 01:23:40,092
Shit, I can't remember it now.
1867
01:23:40,092 --> 01:23:42,611
- There's not gonna be anymore bullshit
1868
01:23:42,611 --> 01:23:44,083
or whatever it was
1869
01:23:44,083 --> 01:23:47,244
from anybody around here,
and that includes me.
1870
01:23:49,531 --> 01:23:51,137
Buddhy.
1871
01:23:51,137 --> 01:23:52,312
Don't fuck around.
1872
01:23:52,312 --> 01:23:54,141
Ben, for fuck's sake.
1873
01:23:54,141 --> 01:23:55,854
Would you speak up?
1874
01:23:55,854 --> 01:23:58,941
It's absolutely impingent
upon you to stop mumbling.
1875
01:24:02,850 --> 01:24:04,649
- Jack has, you know,
1876
01:24:04,649 --> 01:24:06,990
just this affinity for the Ford Fiesta.
1877
01:24:06,990 --> 01:24:09,400
He loves Ford Fiestas.
1878
01:24:09,400 --> 01:24:10,650
- Jesus Christ.
1879
01:24:11,756 --> 01:24:13,423
Fuckin' automobiles.
1880
01:24:14,362 --> 01:24:16,742
How do you get out of this piece of shit?
1881
01:24:16,742 --> 01:24:18,722
- We just passed a golf
course, by the way.
1882
01:24:18,722 --> 01:24:19,742
- No, no, no.
1883
01:24:19,742 --> 01:24:20,742
I told you.
1884
01:24:20,742 --> 01:24:23,177
You got to keep me up to date
on the fuckin' stop signs.
1885
01:24:23,177 --> 01:24:24,701
- Okay, we can turn around.
1886
01:24:24,701 --> 01:24:25,986
- What are you, what are you doing, Ben.
1887
01:24:25,986 --> 01:24:27,036
- I'm, no, I'm-
1888
01:24:27,036 --> 01:24:28,007
- Are you lost again?
1889
01:24:28,007 --> 01:24:28,965
- No, no, no, no.
1890
01:24:28,965 --> 01:24:31,931
- Ben, have you
ever tried a hallucinogen?
1891
01:24:31,931 --> 01:24:33,487
- Jesus Christ.
1892
01:24:33,487 --> 01:24:35,034
You're making me the
angriest man in the world.
1893
01:24:35,034 --> 01:24:35,867
- Yeah, right.
1894
01:24:35,867 --> 01:24:36,700
- You realize that?
1895
01:24:36,700 --> 01:24:37,684
- Good for you.
1896
01:24:37,684 --> 01:24:38,615
- It doesn't look right.
1897
01:24:38,615 --> 01:24:39,783
Doesn't look like we-
1898
01:24:39,783 --> 01:24:41,167
- Can you put your knee up?
1899
01:24:41,167 --> 01:24:42,000
Yeah.
1900
01:24:42,000 --> 01:24:43,193
It looks good.
1901
01:24:43,193 --> 01:24:44,026
- Really?
1902
01:24:44,026 --> 01:24:45,898
- Yeah.
1903
01:24:47,074 --> 01:24:49,034
- You guys are so fucked.
1904
01:24:49,034 --> 01:24:53,367
If George Bush and Karl
Rove and Rumsfeld and Cheney
1905
01:24:54,694 --> 01:24:57,562
get hot pokers rammed up their asses,
1906
01:24:57,562 --> 01:24:59,559
I would be delighted.
1907
01:24:59,559 --> 01:25:01,896
Where's the top of this piece of shit?
1908
01:25:01,896 --> 01:25:03,050
Son of a bitch!
1909
01:25:03,050 --> 01:25:04,719
Blah, blah, blah!
1910
01:25:04,719 --> 01:25:06,257
Great fuckin' deal.
1911
01:25:06,257 --> 01:25:07,673
Buddhy, bite him.
1912
01:25:07,673 --> 01:25:09,334
Oftentimes I wonder, Ben,
1913
01:25:09,334 --> 01:25:13,001
if you're thinking about
what you're saying.
1914
01:25:16,168 --> 01:25:17,172
It's vernacular.
1915
01:25:17,172 --> 01:25:18,850
Please, would you help me?
1916
01:25:18,850 --> 01:25:20,504
Do me a, would you help me?
1917
01:25:20,504 --> 01:25:21,510
Could you get me a beer?
1918
01:25:21,510 --> 01:25:22,633
Do me a kindness.
1919
01:25:22,633 --> 01:25:23,687
Get me a beer.
1920
01:25:23,687 --> 01:25:26,020
Arnold Schwarzen-Terminator.
1921
01:25:26,966 --> 01:25:29,630
Right here on his little
finger, right there?
1922
01:25:29,630 --> 01:25:33,268
There is a small muscle
that he's just developed.
1923
01:25:33,268 --> 01:25:37,990
When I do my routine about
Arnold Schwarzen-Terminator
1924
01:25:37,990 --> 01:25:39,467
and the muscles,
1925
01:25:39,467 --> 01:25:42,326
you don't think that sounds
entertaining to these people?
1926
01:25:42,326 --> 01:25:44,445
You bet your sweet ass it is.
1927
01:25:44,445 --> 01:25:46,160
- You are getting on in years.
1928
01:25:46,160 --> 01:25:48,133
- Fuck you and the horse you rode in on.
1929
01:25:48,133 --> 01:25:48,966
- Thank you.
1930
01:25:48,966 --> 01:25:49,845
- I wonder how you're
gonna feel about this
1931
01:25:49,845 --> 01:25:52,595
when you're fuckin' 80 years old.
