Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:17,040
Look, I know the neighborhood
doesn't look like much, but...
2
00:00:17,500 --> 00:00:20,040
plenty of people are moving
out here to Brooklyn.
3
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:25,540
Writers, painters, filmmakers,
rock and roll musicians...
4
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:32,920
I mean it's just a matter of time before this
neighborhood becomes the art capital of the world
5
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:35,820
New York, Soho, that's all in the past.
6
00:00:35,820 --> 00:00:39,220
I mean an art capital needs to be
a place where people can afford to live.
7
00:00:39,220 --> 00:00:41,020
Who can afford to live in New York City?
8
00:00:41,270 --> 00:00:42,620
Look at Paris in the twenties.
9
00:00:42,620 --> 00:00:46,360
You think Hemingway lived in a six
room duplex on the Champs-Élysées?
10
00:00:46,610 --> 00:00:49,610
No. He lived in squalor.
11
00:00:50,610 --> 00:00:53,080
I mean, it's just a matter
of time before they start
12
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:56,080
opening up cafés all along the BQE.
13
00:00:59,580 --> 00:01:02,580
All right, fine.
Fine, walk away. See what I care.
14
00:01:02,580 --> 00:01:03,980
You're gonna be missing out, man.
15
00:01:03,980 --> 00:01:06,980
You're walking away from the
center of late twentieth-century art.
16
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:10,480
The city of light. The Paris of Brooklyn.
17
00:01:14,230 --> 00:01:18,730
He who does his own work well,
will find that his first lesson
18
00:01:18,730 --> 00:01:23,130
is to know what he is and
that which is proper to himself.
19
00:01:24,630 --> 00:01:29,940
And he who understands himself will
never mistake another man's work for his own
20
00:01:29,940 --> 00:01:32,940
but will recognise the value of his work
21
00:01:32,940 --> 00:01:37,260
as being the appropriate outcome
of his temperament and his needs.
22
00:01:44,260 --> 00:01:47,660
He will refuse superfluous employments and reject
23
00:01:47,660 --> 00:01:50,860
all unprofitable thoughts and propositions
24
00:01:50,860 --> 00:01:53,860
- Love is a form of knowledge.
- I know that!
25
00:01:56,860 --> 00:02:00,460
To know we can die is to be dead already!
26
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:12,740
Marcus Aurelius, Thomas Hardy, Elvis Costello,
Peter Kropotkin, Thomas Jefferson, Robert Bresson...
27
00:02:12,740 --> 00:02:17,220
Saint Francis of Assisi,
Martin Luther King, Sacco and Vanzetti...
28
00:02:17,220 --> 00:02:20,700
Yes, yes, yes, you can go on
forever, but what does it mean?
29
00:02:20,950 --> 00:02:25,850
If you can't understand what someone is saying,
has anything been expressed or conveyed?
30
00:02:33,850 --> 00:02:36,850
What two images or sounds are juxtaposed...
31
00:02:38,350 --> 00:02:40,650
...in a relationship that is...
32
00:02:42,150 --> 00:02:44,150
...not concrete or...
33
00:02:44,650 --> 00:02:46,050
...logical...
34
00:02:47,550 --> 00:02:50,050
...in terms of conventional perception...
35
00:02:51,300 --> 00:02:53,500
...conventional perception becomes either...
36
00:02:54,750 --> 00:02:56,350
...obsolete or...
37
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,000
...is obliged to reassess its intentions.
38
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,800
Why does it look?
What does it want to see?
39
00:03:07,300 --> 00:03:09,000
Does it ask to see only...
40
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,300
...what reaffirms its own existence?
41
00:03:30,740 --> 00:03:32,600
Meaning is differential!
42
00:03:58,350 --> 00:04:01,080
Greenwich Village
large studio, four-floor walkup,
43
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,620
separate bathroom and
hot plate. $900 per month.
44
00:04:05,620 --> 00:04:07,820
Chelsea one-bedroom, large windows,
45
00:04:07,820 --> 00:04:11,120
eat-in kitchen, nice lobby,
$1050 per month.
46
00:04:11,370 --> 00:04:13,670
Fashionable Soho loft.
47
00:04:13,670 --> 00:04:17,670
Near all subway trains.
Asking $400,000.
48
00:04:18,670 --> 00:04:20,270
Honey!
49
00:04:20,770 --> 00:04:25,070
- Ingrid, what are you doing back in town so soon?
- Bob, who are those people in my apartment?
50
00:04:27,820 --> 00:04:29,420
I sublet it.
51
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,820
- You sublet my apartment?
- Just short term.
52
00:04:32,820 --> 00:04:35,820
- I was gonna split the money with you, I promise.
- Who are they?
53
00:04:36,070 --> 00:04:39,470
- You know, they're like us.
- And what is that supposed to mean?
54
00:04:40,470 --> 00:04:41,970
Broke.
55
00:04:41,970 --> 00:04:44,520
You mean they're like you.
I'm not broke. Espresso please?
56
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,970
- Ingrid, marry me. Be my wife.
- Where do they come from? What are they like?
57
00:04:48,970 --> 00:04:52,270
Young, middle-class,
college-educated, unskilled.
58
00:04:52,270 --> 00:04:54,300
- Well, we've got to get them out of there.
- But how?
59
00:04:54,550 --> 00:04:55,420
You could talk to them.
60
00:04:55,420 --> 00:04:57,380
- What am I gonna say?
- I don't know.
61
00:05:00,550 --> 00:05:03,750
Bub, you've got to find
them somewhere else to live.
62
00:05:13,500 --> 00:05:17,100
- You're gonna have to move out, Bill.
- She's locked herself in the bathroom.
63
00:05:19,660 --> 00:05:20,980
What do you mean, for good?
64
00:05:23,260 --> 00:05:25,160
She says until I quit my job.
65
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:30,160
Self-contempt is a serpent
that gnaws in one's breast,
66
00:05:30,410 --> 00:05:33,210
sucking out the heart's lifeblood.
67
00:05:33,460 --> 00:05:38,360
We must love our work,
or our labor will devour us whole.
68
00:05:40,110 --> 00:05:43,110
Or our labor will devour us whole.
69
00:05:44,860 --> 00:05:47,360
- What do you do?
- I guess I just wait for her to come out.
70
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,960
- No, I mean what do you do for a living?
- I go to work.
71
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:51,780
- What kind of work?
- Work I don't like.
72
00:05:51,780 --> 00:05:54,780
- Why do you do it then?
- I gotta the rent.
73
00:05:57,530 --> 00:06:00,530
- What do you wanna do?
- I wanna write songs.
74
00:06:00,530 --> 00:06:03,530
Love songs.
Really beautiful timeless love songs.
75
00:06:04,780 --> 00:06:06,880
But I can't sing and I don't know music.
76
00:06:08,251 --> 00:06:11,840
You see? What did I tell you? This is where
it happens. This is where the artists live.
77
00:06:11,840 --> 00:06:15,240
- Yeah but he's not an artist, he said so himself.
- But he wants to be.
78
00:06:15,420 --> 00:06:17,080
But it doesn't make him one.
You are what you do.
79
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,720
No, you do what you can't avoid.
You are whatever you can get away with.
80
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,320
You do what you need to survive
and then you are what you become.
81
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,320
- Come on, Ingrid, marry me.
- So what do you think you are, then?
82
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:27,820
- I'm a writer.
- No you're not.
83
00:06:27,820 --> 00:06:30,820
You're a low-rent real estate agent
and you're bad at your job.
84
00:06:30,820 --> 00:06:32,100
I'm bad at my job on purpose.
85
00:06:32,100 --> 00:06:35,100
If I was any better at it,
I might become what I do for a living.
86
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,900
I'm only a waitress on the outside.
87
00:07:22,650 --> 00:07:25,250
So he comes up to me
and asks if the boss is in.
88
00:07:25,250 --> 00:07:28,250
So I say "Who should I say
is here to see him?"
89
00:07:28,500 --> 00:07:31,500
So he says "His spiritual advisor".
90
00:07:32,500 --> 00:07:36,300
So I give him the once-over and
ask him if he has any identification
91
00:07:36,550 --> 00:07:39,550
And he says "Don't I look like a spiritual advisor?"
92
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:44,000
And I say "Yeah... but rules are rules.
I have to follow instructions."
93
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:46,600
And then he says...
94
00:07:46,850 --> 00:07:50,350
"Blind obedience is no way to achieve grace".
95
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,900
- You shoulda hit him
- Well my job was on the line.
96
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,400
Look at Paris in the twenties.
97
00:07:56,650 --> 00:08:00,750
You think Henry Miller lived in a luxury
condo on the Boulevard Saint-Germain?
98
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,000
No. He was broke and unshaven. Like me.
99
00:08:07,250 --> 00:08:09,350
Henry Miller was born in Williamsburg.
100
00:08:09,350 --> 00:08:12,350
If he was alive today,
he'd be living right here in Brooklyn.
101
00:08:12,350 --> 00:08:14,110
In Williamsburg in particular.
102
00:08:23,900 --> 00:08:24,854
What?
103
00:08:25,100 --> 00:08:30,680
Young, middle-class,
college-educated, broke.
104
00:08:33,930 --> 00:08:38,380
Young, middle-class, white...
105
00:08:38,560 --> 00:08:44,380
college-educated, unskilled, and broke
106
00:08:46,630 --> 00:08:50,060
Young, middle-class, white...
107
00:08:50,310 --> 00:08:55,720
college-educated,
unskilled, broke... drunk.
108
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:58,420
- That's it.
- Yeah I think we got it, now.
109
00:09:07,420 --> 00:09:10,740
The jackpot is buildin',
it's close to twelve million
110
00:09:10,740 --> 00:09:14,340
The lines are long as can be
111
00:09:14,340 --> 00:09:17,740
I'll spend my time,
put my cash on the line
112
00:09:17,740 --> 00:09:20,940
Oh lord, please let it be me.
113
00:09:20,940 --> 00:09:24,740
Oh please let my numbers
all come out this one time
114
00:09:24,740 --> 00:09:27,840
I've got a feeling they're right
115
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:31,620
Quit my job,
take a vacation of 64 nations
116
00:09:31,620 --> 00:09:35,020
Let me win lotto tonight
117
00:09:37,020 --> 00:09:40,220
Six years I've played
and I ain't won a dollar
118
00:09:40,220 --> 00:09:43,520
My wife she could holler,
my kids hate my guts
119
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:47,020
I lost all our savings,
heard rantings and ravings
120
00:09:47,020 --> 00:09:50,020
My friends say
they all think I'm nuts
121
00:09:50,020 --> 00:09:54,020
Oh please let me numbers
all come out this one time
122
00:09:54,020 --> 00:09:57,020
I've got a feeling they're right
123
00:09:57,020 --> 00:10:00,900
Quit my job,

124
00:10:00,900 --> 00:10:04,380
Let me win lotto tonight
125
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,520
Please don't you laugh
but I've got me this system
126
00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,420
It's guaranteed sure it'll work
127
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:16,140
I read in the back of
the weekly world news
128
00:10:16,140 --> 00:10:19,240
If you can't win
with this you're a jerk
129
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:23,300
Oh please let me numbers
all come out this one time
130
00:10:23,300 --> 00:10:26,300
I've got a feeling they're right
131
00:10:26,500 --> 00:10:30,260
Quit my job,

132
00:10:30,260 --> 00:10:33,260
Let me win lotto tonight
133
00:10:33,260 --> 00:10:37,100
Oh please let me numbers
all come out this one time
134
00:10:37,100 --> 00:10:40,200
I've got a feeling they're right
135
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:44,000
Quit my job,
take a vacation of 64 nations
136
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,400
Let me win lotto tonight
137
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:51,040
Let me win lotto please,

138
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:59,980
Let me win lotto tonight

- Are you sure?
- Yeah.
152
00:12:15,100 --> 00:12:19,560
Her behind small and round
153
00:12:19,560 --> 00:12:24,760
Fit snug in her jeans
154
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:28,260
Well full lips that whisper
155
00:12:28,260 --> 00:12:32,980
Innocent sins and well-kept secrets
156
00:12:32,980 --> 00:12:37,600
I will die in my dreams
157
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:42,360
If not in her arms
158
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:46,940
And her green eyes they do sparkle
159
00:12:46,940 --> 00:12:51,420
With fear as well as laughter
160
00:12:51,420 --> 00:12:55,860
Disappointment and loneliness
161
00:12:55,860 --> 00:13:00,620
Is all I'll taste of her dreams
162
00:13:00,620 --> 00:13:04,860
But her wet full lips will whisper
163
00:13:04,860 --> 00:13:09,420
Innocent sins and well-kept secrets
164
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:14,040
I will die in my dreams
165
00:13:14,290 --> 00:13:20,049
If not in her arms
166
00:13:20,049 --> 00:13:23,050
To know we can die is to be dead already.
167
00:13:23,300 --> 00:13:26,300
I read that in a book somewhere.
168
00:13:26,300 --> 00:13:29,000
Meaning is differential.

172
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:42,939
I can't remember where
I found it, but I believe it.
173
00:13:47,690 --> 00:13:51,390
He who does his own work well
will find that his first lesson
174
00:13:51,390 --> 00:13:55,290
is to know what he is and
that which is proper to himself.
175

There's a bright new renovated
loft in Soho for $400,000.

- Yes, but they've been closed by the Board of Health.
177
00:14:15,060 --> 00:14:16,860
- We'll live on the streets.
- Look, don't panic.
178
00:14:16,860 --> 00:14:19,600
- To know we can die is to be dead already.
- I know that.
179
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,280
- I know you know that.
- I told you that.
180
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,300
Love is a form of knowledge.
181
00:14:24,550 --> 00:14:26,750
- We can't eat poetry.
- How will we live?
182
00:14:26,750 --> 00:14:29,750
- We'll get jobs.
- Yes, we'll get jobs and be happy.
183
00:14:29,750 --> 00:14:33,600
No, we'll get jobs and pay the rent.
We'll get credit cards and be happy.
184
00:14:34,780 --> 00:14:36,320
Why do we struggle?
185
00:14:36,570 --> 00:14:39,020
- Because we want things.
- What do we want?
186
00:14:42,570 --> 00:14:45,570
- Listen, Bill. I want you to take my apartment.
- Really?
187
00:14:45,820 --> 00:14:47,780
I do. I want you to move right in.
188
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,580
it's a nice place.
Rent-stabilized and well-maintained.
189
00:14:50,580 --> 00:14:53,980
I want you to take it.
Enjoy it. I want that.
190
00:14:53,980 --> 00:14:56,980
Because you're beautiful.
I love you guys.
191
00:14:56,980 --> 00:15:01,417
- Gee, Bob.
- Bob, where are you going to live?
192
00:15:01,417 --> 00:15:05,120
I'm going to move in here with Ingrid.
Because she's beautiful, too. I love Ingrid.

- Bob, you got that twenty bucks you owe me?
- I love you Mark.
