Original subtitles

'Daniel Taylor, crowd-pleasing'

'commercial maverick and award-winning filmmaker.'

'How many nominations has it been?'

Thank you. My seventh nomination.

But who's counting?

Seriously, I'm counting.

'How delightful.'

'You have a sense of humor, too.'

Decided to have the shoot here then?

Ladies and gentlemen, this is, uh..

'Jodi, Jodi Rutherford.'

'Oh, you look vaguely familiar.'

Who are you planning to cast...

...'as the leading lady for your next film?'

Well, um, actually I'm up for that role.

'You are?'

'What I'm looking for with this role'

is an actress who has a multitude of vital qualities...

...to portray this young woman.

She needs to be heroic...

...'vivacious, sexy.'

'she has to portray a Boer woman from Brandfort, South Africa'

'who falls in love with an English soldier.'

So far, I haven't found her yet.

I see someone with blond hair, popping blue eyes.

Almost late.

I'll see ya.

Bye, apricot.

'Now, I know where I've seen her before.'

'Wasn't she the lead in that tampon ad?'

'Yeah, yeah, you know how it is.'

'You know how it is, well..'

'Well, there's pretty and beautiful'

'and she's definitely pretty.'

'Tears of the world are a constant quantity.

'For each one who begins to weep..

'...somewhere else another stops.

'The same is true of a laugh.

'Let us not speak ill of our generation.

'For they are not any unhappier than their predecessors.'

What do you think Samuel Beckett meant by this?

Bliksem

Morning, Bliksem.

Petrus.

Bliksem, help.

It's against human rights to wake me up this early.

Come, the sun's drawing water.

You know, I don't drink beer.

I am a sophisticated man.

I drink wine.

You know the farm is in trouble. Come, we've got a lot to do.

Yeah, but only trouble is..

...that we've already planted all the seeds.

'And we've got a couple of sheep'

and three cows to keep us busy.

And we can work on each other's notes...

...for the rest of the day.

What makes me worthy of your love?

Because when I look at you, I see so much more...

...than when I look at myself..

Hang on.

Hello?

'Hey, mom, how's it going?'

Sure, okay, I'll tell you what.

I, yeah, I was in the middle of something...

...but.. No, no, no, I'll come get you out of the bath.

'Okay, keep running the hot water'

and, and, uh, think nice thoughts.

I love you. I'll be there soon. Mwah, mwah.

'Okay, bye.'

- Excuse me. - No, no, no, hey. Hey..

It's my mom, I gotta help out my mom.

Uh, you're Jodi Rutherford.

You recognize me?

Huge fan of Daniel Taylor.

I follow everything he does.

I saw in the tabloids that he's dating you.

So are you amazing gracing us with your presence on set?

You know, as moral support for Dan?

Actually, I'm reading for the role...

...of Johanna Willemse.

The young Afrikaans Boer woman?

'Yeah, that's the one.'

But the film is about the British...

...invading her country and you are..

Planning to do extensive research.

I'm even going to go to South Africa.

You've never even been to South Africa?

- 'Elize Viljoen?' - Yeah.

For Johanna, please come through.

- Right.. - May the best Boer win.

Yeah.

'What makes me worthy of your love?'

'Cause when I look at you..

...I see so much more than when I look at myself and..

'...I feel inferior because of this.'

'so I beg you.'

'Tell me why I am worthy.'

'And when you do..'

...make me believe it.

'Alright, you wanna know why you're worthy?'

'Cause you just kicked some booty, way to go.'

'That was fantastic, go on.'

The rain will come, you'll see.

Johan!

Johan.

Oh, no!

Johan!

I'm coming in.

Kobus.

Katie.

Hello, Kobus.

You know each other.

That's good.

It's very hot today, huh?

My father says it'll never rain.

What happened to Willemien?

Good morning, Kobus.

I work my ass off on this farm

and you...

Kobus! Kobus, man! Sorry, horsey.

Kobus!

Kobus, man! Wait!

Read it.

It's a bit tough to read with the hangover.

We're going to lose the farm, Johan.

It's from the bank.

You've some inheritance money left...

to hold them off our backs, right?

I bought that bike, remember.

It's my ma, it's my ma!

Sarah, there's more groceries in the car.

Hello, Ma's big boy.

When did Ma...

Check out my hair!

When did Ma buy that?

Sarah...

Some tea, please.

So you did notice.

I've wanted a chandelier for the lounge...

ever since I married your stingy father.

And speaking of him...

You'll have to play his part in this year's Vredevlei concert.

We've been bankrupt since dad left us, Ma.

And what will the people say...

of the Willemse family of Brandfort,

if we can't even afford a concert?

Have a koeksister.

Stop over-reacting.

Check this out, Sarah.

I got the prettiest lamp for the guestroom.

And finally..

...finally I want to thank the woman who..

'...who stood by me..'

...and inspired me and loved me.

'My mother, Maureen Taylor, thank you.'

'Ah, look at you.'

'Here I come, ahh.'

Woo.

Ahh.

To Daniel Taylor.

To your remarkable, amazing, wonderful..

...Taylor-made life.

And to you, Jodi Rutherford.

For your, um..

...life.

You know, I was planning on going...

...to South Africa to prepare for the role.

I know you're not going to have callbacks...

...until after scouted for locations, so I thought..

Why is this so important to you?

Now, there's a sound I won't miss.

The sound of time ticking by.

(SPEAKING IN BANTU)

Taxi? Taxi, excuse me.

No, don't worry, it's powerful. This is power steering.

Where are you going now?

Hoping you'll take me to a town...

...where I can find a nice Boer man...

...to make a Boer woman out of me.

(SPEAKING IN BANTU)

Well, play some music if you're gonna laugh at me.

We just need a buyer for the farm, Japie.

Can't we lower the price, just a little bit?

No, Kobus, we can't do that.

People may think there's a land claim on this place.

Or worse, a big ghost.

Excuse me, that was inappropriate.

You're still having the concert, right?

I don't know anymore, Japie.

Kobus,

if we don't have the concert...

Brandfort will be just another small town.

A pit stop.

Get us a buyer for the farm, please, Japie.

I'm just going to get a drink.

You can't just walk in front of me like that, woman!

This is a pedestrian crossing.

Do cars not stop at them in South Africa?

Is this lady traveling with you?

Yeah, Russian lady looking for a Boer to bakabak.

She seems posh, if you ask me.

Come on, man.

Yeah.

You have a place to stay tonight?

If this is your attempt at a pickup line, it's pathetic.

You're not Kobus Willemse's type.

You speak about yourself in the third person?

Yes, because you have the wrong ideas...

...about me, and I just want to give you my objective opinion.

- Wait, wait, wait. - Cheers.

You said you were a Willemse.

A Willemse from Brandfort.

Two minutes in the Brit's company...

...and you wanna judge me according to my family tree?

No, no, no, this is amazing.

It's an honor to meet you.

Did I miss something?

You know, it would be wonderful if I could meet your family.

They say British girls are easy, but damn!

'And we have space for you to stay on our farm.'

Yes, lots of space.

We have a massive farm and an on suite bus.

What?

When did you last... mmmm?

'You know, I could pay if it makes any difference.'

There you go.

In pounds?

Yeah, in pounds.

Looks like you're a rent-boy now!

Impressive!

Okay.

Great, one sec.

Um, you know it's fine. I mean, I'll get them my..

I'll get them myself.

She's English. She can carry her own bags.

Thank you.

Pssst... Come look.

Kosie has a girl with him.

Ooh.

Oh, they're so cute.

I really like the one with the black ear.

Can you take a picture for me?

She's probably from the city.

I'm going to call you Johanna Willemse.

After the bravest woman I know, huh?

What?

Hello, hello, hello...

Please, come inside.

Didn't know you were bringing your girlfriend home, Kosie!

She's not my girlfriend, Ma. She's just lost.

Oh, you're very welcome. You can stay as long as you like.

She'll only be staying one night.

Jodi's foreign.

Oh, you see it's a good thing I redecorated.

From what side of the sea?

I'm British.

Oh, ah, we all have our mistakes, eh?

My name's Magdaleen Willemse, but you can call me Dally.

Dally, hi.

Kosie, bring in the luggage.

Come, Sarah.

A single or double if you push the beds together...

...but double is always better than single.

'Why you look so scared?'

It's just that I'm a vegetarian.

Oh, relax, poppy.

We haven't eaten it also, just shot it to get the trophy.

Green Peace? Thumbs up.

'Are you single? Kosie wants to know.'

I do not.

In fact, I hope you're married.

'Excuse me.'

Ooh, playing hard to get that one.

So..

What was your ex-boyfriend's name?

Well, my ex was William, but my--...

...William. Sounds very familiar.

What is his mother's name?

Diane I think, why?

I may know them.

I know a lot of English people.

How do you think my English got so definite?

Right, I'll give you privacy in here.

You'll come right to the double.

Sarah.

Why does that name sound so familiar?

Sarah, prepare a feast!

And roll out a Persian rug!

Put on a blazer and comb your hair.

The Brit dated Prince William!

Agh, nonsense, man!

Yes, his name is William.

And his mom's name is Diana.

Just do as I say.

For heaven's sake...

Thank you.

Bloody hell, this is a meal fit for a queen.

See, what did I tell you?

Does anyone mind if I record our conversations?

Oh, for security reasons?

'I understand.'

Let's pray, I'm starving.

Lord, thank you for this food, bless those who prepared it.

Let us never forget You, Amen.

Oh, and because you're a vegetarian...

...I cooked you a chicken.

But chicken is also meat.

No, chicken is a vegetable in this part of the world...

...and we won't tell the queen.

Bon appetite.

The queen?

My ma thinks you dated Prince William.

Prince William?

My God. William Fisher, maybe.

I don't like her.

So Kosie says you'll be leaving in the morning then.

No, I mean, I need your help...

...to portray a Boer woman in a film that I'm doing.

You're an actress. Wow.

Maybe you can help me with Freedom of Rights concert.

Well, I did study at RADA.

I might have a script you can use.

She's not that bad.

In fact, if you get a tan and you perm your hair...

...you can look a lot like Kosie's ex.

I've got a picture.

Sarah, where is the cellphone?

Ma, she'll be leaving tomorrow.

You'll sleep with me.

I can pay more, you know.

I will not have sex with you. It's not how it works here.

Excuse me?

I saw how you changed when I told you...

...I'm a Willemse from Brandfort.

With this farm, my family's good name...

...and our money died with my dad, so..

Do you have any idea how cheap you make me sound?

I'm an actress preparing for a role.

Just because I have an Afrikaans accent...

...doesn't make me stupid.

I can tell you're lying.

You're right, I am lying.

I'm not an actress, I'm a teacher..

...preparing for a role in a film about...

...the war heroine, Johanna Willemse.

Johanna Willemse?

So you do know her.

My director is making a film.

If you let me stay, I'll help remind people...

...what makes this place so special.

I'll tell her to arrange auditions for tomorrow.

Jodi. It's a pleasure to meet you.

Right, I'm taking it on in English today...

...because we are so very privileged...

...to have a world famous actress with us.

That's awfully kind, but not totally accurate, I'm afraid.

Oh, the modesty, the modesty.

Anyway, we are not going to do the birth of Jesus this year...

...but we'll be doing her movie script as a play.

The concert will remind people why this farm is so special.

And then it will be easier to sell.

Right, take it away.

Very good, very good.

Agh, shame.

Yes.

Oh, goodness.

Petrus, come!

Jackal!

What's going on?

They're going to shoot a jackal.

No, they're not.

'Kobus, no. Wait, wait, wait.'

Ah, no, Jodi, what're you doing?

'Get off.'

Kobus, no. Stop.

Get off.

How could you leave an audition to go shoot an animal?

Especially since you weren't half bad, you know.

Mildly engaging, even.

So you thought I was grand?

Get off or hold on.

No, Kobus, no. Wait, wait.

Don't be stupid, man. Get out of the way.

Damn it.

Johanna Willemse.

Stand back, it's frightened.

Ah.

They look vicious.

Johan keeps them as pets.

I'm sorry about last night.

I thought you were going to kill the jackal for another trophy.

No, I don't hunt.

By the way, Johanna Willemse's leg is better.

Why don't you join the play, Kobus?

We need a romantic lead.

I'm playing the female lead and you-you've...

...got such a wholesome voice.

I sense there's more in you than you want people to see.

You wanted to know a little bit about the Boer, right?

Let me tell you what I know about the Brits.

They come here, they take what they want...

...and then they leave.

Just when everybody really likes you...

...you're gonna leave too.

Can't help it, it's in your blood.

Tell me what you want, so I can make sure you get it...

...and then you can leave.

Why don't you tell me what I really want, Mr. Boer?

Since you've got it all figured out.

What is it I really want?

You want people to like you.

'Cause you don't like yourself.'

'That's what I sense in you.'

Petrus.

'You're up early.'

Uh, yeah, I-I thought I could come...

...offer my talents for the play.

You said I was grand..

I've always wanted to be an actor.

But, uh, promise me you won't tell Kobus.

Just now, he thinks I'm like you.

No, no, no.

No, sorry. No, no, no.

u-you know, my oma always used say I had evil powers...

...when it comes to making women cry...

...'but I didn't know that until today.'

It's-it's not you, Petrus, it's..

Is it Kobus?

Excuse me.

Bloody Kobus.

When an Afrikaans person wants to tell you something...

...they don't rehearse it in their heads...

...until it sounds polite. They just say it.

It's both an admirable quality and..

Insensitive.

Could I have some privacy please?

Petrus sent me to apologize.

That's not an apology, try again.

I quite agree, Petrus.

That was an appalling apology.

Let me help you.

This is one thing about the Britishers...

...we're really good at saying sorry.

So try again, and take off your hat.

You've got lovely hair.

Unkempt and unconditioned, but lovely nonetheless.

Now, go out and knock first.

Wait for me to let you in, okay?

Just a second.

Come in.

- 'Repeat after me.' - Okay.

I'm really sorry I assumed I knew anything...

...about you seeing as how I'd only just met you.

'I'm really sorry that I assumed I knew...

...anything about you seeing that I've just met you.'

And I was probably just projecting my own insecurities...

...when it comes to women onto you...

...which was extremely presumptuous of me.

I'm not gonna say dictionary words that...

...I don't even understand, okay?

No, you understand just fine.

Apology accepted.

Now, here, take the script with you just in case.

Okay.

- Bye. - Bye.

'Excuse me, where can I find the detergent?'

Oh, no. I'll do it. I don't wanna bother you.

Please, I don't wanna keep you from your work.

That would be extremely disrespectful.

Well, I guess practice makes perfect.

I-is it customary to tip in South Africa?

I apologize, that came out wrong.

Uh, just for the record, I condemn racism.

I'll stop talking now.

It-it's just that..

What was it you were singing?

I need somebody to conduct the choir...

...and I have-have a feeling that you'd be great.

(SPEAKING IN BANTU)

Agh, no man, Japie!

My husband hasn't even gone cold in his grave yet.

Oh yes, he is. He's been cold for almost a year.

That was inappropriate.

I'm always being inappropriate.

Where are you taking those flowers?

Bring them here.

So I can water them.

Oh, ok.

Well, go away then.

Now, who wants to help with costumes?

Thank you, Magdaleen.

Now, as to sets. Who wants to help?

I will design the set.

The guys will help me.

Thank you.

Okay, you two, come on.

Ladies.

You're our African choir.

I want you to watch Sarah closely.

'soak up as much as you can.'

Remember, you're not white, you're blank pages.

Okay?

Off you go.

Take this.

'Hey, I say, take this.'

'Bring some tea. I-I want some tea.'

Get this washed.

Stop it, it's not funny.

The person you love is dead.

'You're reminded what life is like'

'without the person you love.'

Life becomes a meaningless habit.

You're sucked into the space.

The vastness surrounds you, and it suffocates you.

Tell me Kobus, when you sell this place, where will you go?

Probably to the city.

There isn't any work in town for a farmer without a farm.

That's what I thought.

One of my clients seems to be interested.

So, I'll let you know.

"When we stand naked in front of each other..."

"my allegiance to my people and country perishes..."

"because wars are fought..."

"for moments like these."

"...for moments like these."

What does it mean?

When you stand naked in front of me...

...my allegiance to my country perishes...

...because wars are fought for moments like these.

All right!

Yeah!

Feel it, ok?

Yeah!

Stretch it, stretch it!

Feel it!

Can you feel it?

I do.

It feels good, right?

You can feel him, right?

What was her name?

'The one that left you.'

- Who told you about her? - Nobody.

I studied drama. I can read between the lines.

In order to read between them, you have to cross them first.

Is that another thing about being Afrikaans?

You get hurt and you don't try again?

Or is that just you?

I've things to do.

Hi, Daniel, it's me, your girlfriend, the stalker.

Anyway, I'm-I'm emailing you some pictures of the farm.

Take a look and give me a call. We need to talk.

I told them a movie is being made about this farm.

They're clearly impressed.

Please don't tell anyone, while I'm thinking this through.

Of course not.

The rain will come.

Can you help us move the set into the barn?

This is the first time I see her cry since my father died.

Did it hurt?

- Did it hurt? - Sorry?

When you, uh, fell from heaven.

It's a little joke..

...from my brain.

Um, girls really like you, Johan, I mean..

Well, Kobus, he's the real thing, eh?

Always gets the good ones.

Oh, well, if you're implying that I have a go for Kobus...

...then I'd just like to say that--...

...No, no, no, you're not his type.

He'd never go for you.

Right.

Glad we've got that sorted.

I've read the script, and I would like to audition.

♪ You know how I think and what I feel ♪

♪ You know what I mean with my smile ♪

♪ You show me your sparkle in the moon ♪

♪ You show me how dreams perish now ♪

♪ Because today's child changed everything ♪

♪ But there's so much that we'll always remember ♪

Hello, strangers!

She's perfect, eh?

Last time Kobus, uh, sang in public was when he proposed..

...to her.

Oh, hi, we haven't met. I'm, uh, Linda van der Merwe.

Hi.

I was hoping to audition for the lead...

...seeing that you have so much on your plate already...

...with, uh, directing and everything.

Oh, I don't know, I mean, I-- - I'm good.

I was, uh, Sandy in 'Grease' in our school play.

Ask Kobus, or should I say Danny?

'Do you remember?'

Maybe you can, uh, you can do a piece for me...

...and then I can copy you?

Come on.

Okay.

Kobus, do you mind?

"When we stand naked in front of each other..."

"my allegiance to my people and country perishes..."

"because..."

"because..."

"because wars..."

I know...

"because wars are fought..."

"for moments like these."

...Embarrassing.

Okay, my turn.

'Yeah.'

"When we stand naked in front of each other..."

"my allegiance to my people and country perishes..."

"because wars are fought for moments like these."

Did you have something to do with this?

Agh, I only planted the seed, man.

How the tree grows has nothing to do with me.

Is everything always a joke to you?

He did it because he cares about you.

He said I had to make the girl a little jealous.

Why? Why would you want to help me with another woman?

Because I want you to be happy.

I've always wanted that.

So that's why you left me at the altar, right?

Yes.

You didn't make me happy.

And I didn't make you happy either, Kobus.

Not really, and you know that.

Little brother...

It is time to open up.

Or you will lose that chick forever.

Not now, please, go away.

'I'm coming in.'

Linda's great.

'she's just better because she's been a Boer all her life.'

Of course, that's why she's better.

Why do you think I'm packing?

'That's not why you're packing.'

I beg your pardon?

Come, I wanna show you something.

I'm not gonna follow you just because you say so.

Sit down.

You can't just talk to me like I'm your dog, you know.

I would never talk to Bliksem like that.

Now, shush.

We used to be the biggest supplier of crops in our region...

...but then, uh, Linda left me at the altar.

My father passed away shortly after that.

And because I didn't keep my eye on the ball...

...we're gonna lose the farm.

Because of me.

Is this the part where you convince the city girl...

...to move to the farm...

...by showing her how amazing the landscape is?

How beautiful the nature and..

...taking her for a picnic in the hills?

Close your eyes.

What do you hear?

Nothing.

Listen carefully.

How does your skin feel?

How does this make you feel?

Calm.

Like time is standing still.

Like I have all of eternity just to lie here.

And even if I did, it would be a life worth living.

That's exactly why I like it here.

Here's Daniel.

'Whoo.'

'Wow.'

Whoa.

Wow.

Incredible.

I'm in Africa, people. I am in Africa.

I am in Africa.

Whoo. There she is.

Oh, look at her. There she is, there she is.

Come here, you. Come here, you.

Oh, my goodness, you look beautiful.

And you're speechless. You're so happy to see me.

'Africa, blowing my mind.'

Genuine African, oh.

Amazing. Wow.

'Okay, where's the chief?'

Where are ya? Where's the chief?

Where.. Ooh.

Hello, chief. Hello. How are ya?

- I'm good. - Ooh. I like your style.

Nice.

So shall we talk some business?

He sounds like Barack Obama when he talks.

Yeah, I'm smooth like him.

'Is it your chopper there?'

- 'Like your own one?' - 'Hmm.'

- 'Is it?' - 'Honestly.'

So you make movies, like Spielberg?

You're joking.

Uh, wh-what's your name, Peaches?

Magdaleen.

Wow, that is, uh.. Is that Biblical?

Yeah, well, uh, I'm gonna call you Peaches.

Technically, my influences are Malick, P.T. Anderson...

...Burton, but yeah, I make movies like Spielberg.

- 'Wonderful.' - 'Hello there.'

That's just wonderful. And that's how you know Jodi.

'Yeah, well, actually we met on the internet.'

'No, yeah, that's, yeah. I was kidding.'

'We didn't meet on the internet, although we could have.'

'Have a piece of melktert.'

Milk tart?

Thank you, uh..

Okay, uh..

Ooh, that smells. Yeah.

'Um, I'm, uh, lactose intolerant.'

Oh, I'm not sure what that means, but I'll do the Google...

...and I'll get you lactose intolerances next time, okay?

Please have a piece.

'Oh, hey. A little, uh..'

Oh, I'm so sorry.

Apricot, where you, uh, where are you going?

Daniel, can I speak to you outside, alone for a second?

Sure.

Um, excuse me.

Oh, easy. Sorry about that. I'll just, uh..

Who knows anything about Twitter?

I have to tweet.

Do they still shoot films on "cellulite"?

Ma, let it go.

Um, Daniel's planning on staying until tomorrow night...

...so he can watch the play.

'I hope that's alright.'

Of course.

Go and clean your bus, Kosie. - Oh, no, please.

- No, no, it's fine. - Nonsense. Kobus.

Kobus, wait.

Just wait.

Kobus, I, uh..

Are you with this man?

- Yes. - Why?

He gave a speech at my school before he was, you know...

...Daniel Taylor, and we share the same passion for film.

I felt like he listened to me. It seems pathetic now.

Pass me the sheets in the cupboard there, please.

He's directing the film I want to be in.

I mean, he's a prolific filmmaker.

I'm sorry, Kobus. I..

'You're lovely, but..'

'This role could finally establish me'

'in the acting world.'

So you are with him because you want the role?

'No.'

Uh, I love him, but..

You, you're just...lovely.

'Lovely.'

Lovely.

Stop using the word love in a sentence if you love him.

You were right about me.

I want people to like me because I don't like myself.

It's true.

Then, you're a complete fool..

'...because there's nothing not to like about you.'

You might not be an actress yet, but you're a perfect teacher.

You've taught everyone here so much.

'You can be extremely proud of what you did here.'

All you have to do now is go out there tomorrow...

...and just show him how perfect you are.

How can you be so nice to me?

So okay with this?

I don't actually know.

But if I use the word love in a sentence, I mean it.

'You are lovely too.'

Wow. This, uh..

This bus is incredible. Where did you get it?

'Uh, the Partridge family?'

Excuse me.

- A wildebeest. - Yeah.

That's a bloody wildebeest.

What-what is that? Like his teddy bear?

I mean, these people, they're incredible.

I.. What-what's the right expression for 'em?

Adorably primitive.

- I'm going to have a shower. - Okay.

Hey, Jodi, before you, uh, take that shower...

...how about we play, uh, the groupie...

...the rock star, and the backstage pass, huh?

We have to vote on something.

Japie got us a buyer for the farm.

It's a good price, it will get us back on our feet.

Or we can keep the farm.

Let's keep it then!

If we want to keep the farm, we'll have to sell everything on it.

And if the harvest fails again, we will lose everything.

Hut, two, three, four. Hut, two, three, four.

Hut, two, three, four. Hut, two, three, four.

Hut, two, three, four.

And aim and fire.

And then, two, three, four.

What makes me worthy of your love..

Ooh.

You could've waited until we finished the scene...

...before kissing me.

I improvised.

Isn't that what actors are supposed to do?

No, not when I have a scene to get through.

You were fantastic out there.

You looked ready to have my children.

I don't want children. I, I mean I do, but in..

Just stick to the script and we'll get through this, okay?

Okay.

Hey, Boer.

He's impressed.

There are so many stories too tragic...

...to put in the history books.

And such is one where a British soldier...

...has to choose between the love of a woman...

...and the country that he's sworn his allegiance to.

His choice was punished with all the lives...

...of all the men on General Valance's farm.

'soldiers, attack.'

Take my life for theirs.

Take and give is all the same...

...if you've lived and loved through and full.

- 'Go, Jodi.' - 'Go, Jodi.'

'Jodi, Jodi, Jodi.'

Bye.

- Bye-bye. Goodnight. - Goodnight.

Drive carefully.

- Bye. - Bye.

- Okay. - Bye.

We'll help you.

You sang lovely tonight, Sarah.

Couldn't they have left the fridge?

No!

No, no!

You can come eat at my place.

Come.

My house isn't far.

It's just around the corner.

Uh Uh umh...

I know it's probably inappropriate, my Muggie.

But I have a fridge at my house.

And furniture... in your favourite colours.

And... uh...

a king size double bed.

What are trying to say, Japie.

I've been walking around with this in my pocket for a week.

Japie, this is totally inappropriate.

Come here.

Come, come. Come, come.

Give it here, so I can see.

That was wonderful!

Ah!

There you go!

Let's celebrate!

Kobus?

I just came to say my goodbyes.

Could you let everybody know when they wake up?

Japie, Sarah.

Kobus, Johan, Petrus, wake up.

Here in South Africa, we walk people to their cars...

...or should I say helicopter to say our goodbyes.

There's really no need and Daniel's waiting for me, so..

You were all wonderful last night.

'Even Daniel said so.'

I'll see what I can do, yeah?

Thank you.

Can someone please tell me what's going on?

Kobus and Jodie, Ma.

Isn't it obvious?

Oh, I see.

Well, are you just gonna watch as she flies away?

She's with Daniel Taylor, Ma.

Well, I'm not quite sure who he is.

We looked him up when I googled "lactose intolerant".

But...

She belongs in a big city, like London.

Ah, rubbish, Kobus. She doesn't belong to no city.

She belongs next to a biggo like you.

There you go.

Do you want her to go?

Because you can learn something from bloody Japie, then.

Because he does what he wants, no matter how inappropriate it is.

Kobus...

'Kobus.'

Come, come, everyone.

'Jodi.'

Jodi.

Jodi.

Jodi, I lied.

I'm not okay with you leaving.

Let's be honest. Just look at you.

Every person I meet after you will just be a piece of you.

A puzzle that I'm trying to assemble...

...to build you back into my life.

I'm Jodi Rutherford, Kobus.

I'm Daniel Taylor's girlfriend.

I'm going to be an actress soon and that's gonna make me happy.

It doesn't matter who I wake up with, I will be happy.

You should marry someone sweet like Linda van der Merwe.

It's better this way.

Wow. Almost felt bad for him.

You really must have rocked his world.

You know, I think I'm gonna stay at my own place...

...when we're back in London, you know.

Living without luxuries has really made me...

...understand Johanna Willemse better.

Yeah, sure, that's cool. I get that.

You're a method actress.

'Tears of the world are a constant quantity.'

For each one who begins to weep somewhere else..

Somewhere else another stops.

Excuse me.

Hello, Daniel.

Kobus...

Kobus...

Come look at this!

Don't just stand there, run.

I told you.

Woo-hoo.

My resignation.

She got me the audition for the film...

...'and she bought me a ticket too.'

She says I could pay her back the cash...

...when I'm rich and famous.

Goodbye, my friend.

I'm glad she kept her promise.

Uh..

Hello, my dear.

Give me your hand.

Here we are. Huh? What do you think?

Impressive, huh?

- Daniel, I.. - Uh, have a seat.

Dinner is served.

What's this?

That...is a contract.

Jodi, you blew my mind.

You're gonna play Johanna Willemse in my film.

It's a very generous offer.

It is.

'sign it. That way we can celebrate.'

Come on.

Daniel.

Do you..

Do you know the girl who auditioned for the role...

...after me? The Afrikaans girl?

Wh-what was her name?

Oh, you know I'm not good at remembering names.

She was good.

- She was alright. - She was good.

- She was pretty good. - She was good.

- She was better than me. - No, she wasn't.

- Daniel, listen to me. - I'm listening.

It was her innocence.

The way she grew up.

The way her values shined through when she talked.

She showed a vulnerability without even trying.

Alright, she was pretty good.

You're the most talented man I know.

I know, and that's why you should be...

...listening to me right now--...

...And you deserve the best for your film--...

...- And I got the best. - No.

- I got you. - No.

The best is her.

She should be your leading lady.

Jodi.

Uh, Jodi, I..

Goodbye, Daniel.

No, hey, h-hang on, hang on, hang on.

You were meant to play this role.

You proved it to me. You proved it to yourself.

You're gonna be amazing.

I thought it was what I wanted.

I'm sorry.

You're gonna be great.

Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.

Dammit.

Ah, don't worry. This is Africa, my sister.

Maybe he's on the Zuma plane...

...and he's got another space for a Russian bride.

Uh, I was just joking.

Okay, let's go.

Kobus, wait, wait, no, no, no, wait.

You can't go ahead and marry her 'cause..

Not until I've told you that I don't need the world...

...to love me, not if I wake up next to you.

I love you, Kobus, and..

...it doesn't matter..

...where I live or what I do.

That'll be enough.

This is really inappropriate.

Welcome to my mother's wedding.

Greetings!

Can we get on with it, please.

Muggie.

I saw van der Merwe on the banners.

Van der Merwe is one of the most common surnames in South Africa.

Come, fly to me!

Why do you think Geppetto had a desire to create Pinocchio?

- 'Yes, Sissy.' - To make friends with no lies.

- Yes. - Yes.

Tomorrow, we'll be discussing the worst form of lying.

Lying to yourself, or self-deception.

Ooh.

Class dismissed.

What makes me worthy of your love?

No, when I look at..

When I look at you, I see..

- Okay, okay, cut. - 'Yes, sir.'

- Excellent. Reset. - 'First positions, everyone.'

Looks like you cut a few lines from the script there.

I liked the way Kobus did it in the play better.

'You know, I think a man should never let a woman'

doubt her own worth if he loves her, right?

- Exactly. - Exactly.

I love that sound.

Makes me think of 'Apocalypse Now.'

Uh, you know, I gotta thank you, Kobus...

...for letting me use this place, it's unbelievable.

Our pleasure.

And you..

- You look.. - I am.

I know. I'm happy for you. I'm happy for both of you.

'I forgot to tell you that, uh, tomorrow, if you want'

uh, Petrus is gonna be doing his performance.

You should come and check it out.

- Petrus or Peaches? - No, uh, Petrus.

Uh, Peaches will be doing her performance in my trailer later.

Okay, you know what? On that note, I think we should go.

- Goodbye, Daniel. - Goodbye.

'Any action changes, sir?'

'Yeah, of course, I have changes.'

'Well, first of all, this isn't a perfume commercial, okay?'

So walk the walkie over to that guy whose name escapes me.

Put it right behind his ear. You got it there?

- 'Yes.' - 'Perfect. Okay. Passion.'

Now, bring it over to Ginger, please. Ginger?

I'm always gonna call you Ginger, sweetheart.

You know why? Because fruits and spices don't mix, alright?

'Yeah, now just keep giving me those doe eyes'

'and everything's gonna be beautiful, okay?'

'What's-his-name over there is gonna do a better job'

'but remember, what I need from you is passion.'

'Passion, passion, passion.'

'You got it?'.
