King Gustaf: In his novels,
his plays and essays,

4
00:01:17,425 --> 00:01:20,515
this writer has redefined
modern literature.

5
00:01:21,733 --> 00:01:23,996
He has shown us the condition
of modern man,

6
00:01:24,345 --> 00:01:26,738
in all its absurdity
and futility,

7
00:01:27,174 --> 00:01:29,698
with dark humor
and profound insight.

8
00:01:31,308 --> 00:01:34,703
It is our great honor
to recognize this writer today.

9
00:01:36,618 --> 00:01:40,274
The Nobel Prize for Literature
is hereby awarded to...

10
00:01:41,101 --> 00:01:42,363
Samuel Beckett.

11
00:02:11,609 --> 00:02:14,482
Mr. Beckett,
there is no speech?

12
00:03:14,281 --> 00:03:15,804
So, you took the prize money?

13
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:18,415
I'm gonna give it away.

14
00:03:19,329 --> 00:03:21,201
Do you really think
that's gonna help?

15
00:03:22,376 --> 00:03:24,334
No. Do you?

16
00:03:25,074 --> 00:03:27,163
If anything,
it might make things worse.

17
00:03:28,817 --> 00:03:30,079
I'm still gonna do it.

18
00:03:31,298 --> 00:03:32,212
Hmm.

19
00:03:33,256 --> 00:03:34,997
So, who are the candidates
for this money?

20
00:03:36,390 --> 00:03:38,653
Whose forgiveness
do you need the most?

21
00:03:40,524 --> 00:03:43,484
You know,
I'm spoiled for choice.

22
00:03:45,442 --> 00:03:49,272
You know this is going to be
a journey through your shame?

23
00:03:50,447 --> 00:03:51,405
Isn't everything?

24
00:03:54,103 --> 00:03:55,104
So then...

25
00:03:59,326 --> 00:04:00,892
We shall begin with Mother.

26
00:04:01,980 --> 00:04:02,981
How could we not?

27
00:04:06,985 --> 00:04:09,336
Child Samuel: <i>Had I
The heavens' embroidered cloth</i>

28
00:04:09,510 --> 00:04:11,990
<i>Enwrought with golden
And silver light</i>

29
00:04:12,164 --> 00:04:15,211
<i>The blue and the dim
And the dark cloth</i>

30
00:04:15,559 --> 00:04:18,475
<i>Of night and light
And the half-light</i>

31
00:04:18,997 --> 00:04:21,217
<i>I'd spread the cloth
Under your feet</i>

32
00:04:21,696 --> 00:04:24,438
<i>- But I, being poor...
- </i>  "But I."

33
00:04:27,615 --> 00:04:29,834
<i>But I, being poor</i>

34
00:04:30,139 --> 00:04:32,446
He's shifting the focus
of the poem.

35
00:04:32,837 --> 00:04:34,839
You were astray
with your emphasis.

36
00:04:37,189 --> 00:04:39,148
No, thank you.

37
00:04:43,500 --> 00:04:44,371
What did you say?

38
00:04:45,328 --> 00:04:46,808
I'm happy with the delivery.

39
00:04:47,504 --> 00:04:48,897
And I...

40
00:04:49,245 --> 00:04:50,377
am not.

41
00:04:51,378 --> 00:04:54,076
And I have considered
your suggestion,

42
00:04:54,424 --> 00:04:56,731
and find it inferior to my own.

43
00:04:57,253 --> 00:04:58,210
Either will do.

44
00:05:01,692 --> 00:05:02,693
Either will do.

45
00:05:07,002 --> 00:05:10,571
<i>But I, being poor
Have only my dreams...</i>

46
00:05:11,702 --> 00:05:13,791
<i>I spread my dreams
Under your feet</i>

47
00:05:14,531 --> 00:05:17,317
<i>Tread softly
Because you tread on my dreams</i>

48
00:05:25,542 --> 00:05:28,110
Come on, faster, faster!

49
00:05:34,290 --> 00:05:36,466
Let go, let go!

50
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:17,638
It's time to go.

51
00:06:18,943 --> 00:06:20,118
Child Samuel: Not yet.

52
00:06:20,815 --> 00:06:22,294
Not while the kite still flies.

53
00:07:21,832 --> 00:07:22,920
That's not for you.

54
00:07:25,488 --> 00:07:27,447
What is this obscenity?

55
00:07:28,839 --> 00:07:30,275
This is me!

56
00:07:32,103 --> 00:07:36,194
This me you are demonizing
with your poison!

57
00:07:36,978 --> 00:07:38,501
You could only
ever imagine it as you,

58
00:07:38,675 --> 00:07:40,634
because the whole world is you.

59
00:07:43,854 --> 00:07:46,204
You are a liar!

60
00:08:39,431 --> 00:08:41,782
This will be your last chance
to speak...

61
00:08:43,697 --> 00:08:45,394
to conspire against me.

62
00:09:21,691 --> 00:09:22,562
Fight.

63
00:09:26,391 --> 00:09:27,262
Fight.

64
00:09:31,832 --> 00:09:32,746
Fight.

65
00:10:22,709 --> 00:10:24,101
Did you read my story?

66
00:10:27,104 --> 00:10:28,105
I did not.

67
00:10:29,672 --> 00:10:30,934
If it's good enough
to be published,

68
00:10:31,108 --> 00:10:32,109
it's good enough for you.

69
00:10:36,070 --> 00:10:37,071
Hmm.

70
00:10:39,203 --> 00:10:42,424
There will always be
a call for titillation.

71
00:10:43,773 --> 00:10:45,209
So, you did read it?

72
00:10:51,825 --> 00:10:53,217
What a waste.

73
00:11:18,765 --> 00:11:21,376
I'm going to Paris,
and I hope never to return.

74
00:11:25,859 --> 00:11:30,820
The continent is peopled
almost entirely by homosexuals.

75
00:11:34,302 --> 00:11:35,172
Hmm.

76
00:11:37,435 --> 00:11:40,047
There is, of course,
a central flaw in your theory.

77
00:11:43,572 --> 00:11:46,096
Always so clever.

78
00:11:47,837 --> 00:11:50,535
You assumed
eternal ownership over me.

79
00:11:55,453 --> 00:11:56,933
Like I was yours to control.

80
00:11:57,107 --> 00:11:58,761
It could only ever end
like this.

81
00:12:04,332 --> 00:12:06,116
I gave you everything.

82
00:12:08,031 --> 00:12:10,120
I hope, for your sake,
that's not true.

83
00:12:38,496 --> 00:12:40,368
I could give the money
to the hospital...

84
00:12:41,456 --> 00:12:42,370
where she died.

85
00:12:43,414 --> 00:12:46,548
She...
she didn't exactly go quietly.

86
00:12:46,983 --> 00:12:48,158
No.

87
00:12:48,855 --> 00:12:51,248
You've already paid her all
the repentance you could afford.

88
00:12:52,075 --> 00:12:53,511
You're referring
to what I told her?

89
00:12:53,685 --> 00:12:54,643
As she died.

90
00:12:54,817 --> 00:12:56,210
That I had regrets.

91
00:12:56,688 --> 00:13:00,780
And telling her that became
your greatest regret of all.

92
00:13:01,215 --> 00:13:03,391
I knew that,
even as I was telling her.

93
00:13:04,261 --> 00:13:06,263
You might name
your scars after her?

94
00:13:06,568 --> 00:13:09,658
Hmm. I might name
my joys as well.

95
00:13:10,572 --> 00:13:12,792
Hmm, isn't that always the way
with love?

96
00:13:17,448 --> 00:13:18,493
Suzanne?

97
00:13:20,190 --> 00:13:21,452
No, not yet.

98
00:13:23,324 --> 00:13:24,499
So, it's Lucia?

99
00:13:26,980 --> 00:13:29,330
It is Lucia.

100
00:14:40,270 --> 00:14:41,271
Mr. Joyce?

101
00:14:41,489 --> 00:14:42,794
I am in thought!

102
00:15:35,978 --> 00:15:37,849
Mr. Joyce,
my name is Samuel Beckett.

103
00:15:38,938 --> 00:15:41,244
I'm studying English
at EÉcole Normale Supérieure,

104
00:15:41,766 --> 00:15:42,854
I'm from Dublin,

105
00:15:43,203 --> 00:15:44,595
and I've a great respect
for your work.

106
00:15:48,512 --> 00:15:51,211
"I'm from Dublin"
was wholly superfluous.

107
00:15:51,385 --> 00:15:53,039
And there would have been
no harm in starting out

108
00:15:53,256 --> 00:15:54,736
with the admiration now,
would there?

109
00:15:55,998 --> 00:15:57,173
No harm at all.

110
00:16:03,875 --> 00:16:06,530
You know,
Mr. Beckett,

111
00:16:07,749 --> 00:16:09,272
my great shame,
and how could it not be,

112
00:16:09,446 --> 00:16:11,971
is that I... don't know Greek.

113
00:16:14,582 --> 00:16:15,496
Right.

114
00:16:16,410 --> 00:16:18,890
Of course,
I can handle modern Greek,

115
00:16:19,195 --> 00:16:22,807
and I have spent
a great deal of time with Greeks

116
00:16:23,330 --> 00:16:26,072
of all kinds, from noblemen,
down to onion sellers.

117
00:16:26,681 --> 00:16:27,725
Chiefly the latter.

118
00:16:30,293 --> 00:16:34,167
You know, I'm superstitious
about Greek onion sellers.

119
00:16:35,429 --> 00:16:36,343
Aren't you?

120
00:16:38,171 --> 00:16:39,433
Well, I...

121
00:16:39,999 --> 00:16:41,565
I mean, having not met one,
it would be presumptuous.

122
00:16:41,739 --> 00:16:44,307
Ah, but look,
you show bewilderment.

123
00:16:44,568 --> 00:16:45,787
Never show bewilderment, Beckett,

124
00:16:46,005 --> 00:16:47,397
it surrenders control.

125
00:16:47,658 --> 00:16:51,140
My point is, of course,
that I do not speak Irish.

126
00:16:51,314 --> 00:16:53,490
Right.
And neither do you.

127
00:16:53,664 --> 00:16:55,797
No.

128
00:16:58,017 --> 00:17:00,845
I hope you do not think
that you can learn from me...

129
00:17:02,195 --> 00:17:03,718
that you have come
to seek epiphany

130
00:17:03,935 --> 00:17:06,199
at my broken altar?

131
00:17:07,156 --> 00:17:09,767
No, that... I thought...

132
00:17:11,856 --> 00:17:13,510
I wanted to make
your acquaintance,

133
00:17:14,033 --> 00:17:15,469
perhaps offer my services.

134
00:17:16,122 --> 00:17:17,297
Some reading, or some research.

135
00:17:17,471 --> 00:17:19,299
I know
from my professors at Trinity

136
00:17:19,473 --> 00:17:20,778
that you've offered
similar postings

137
00:17:20,952 --> 00:17:22,171
to students in the past.

138
00:17:22,693 --> 00:17:23,912
You know, Mr. Beckett,

139
00:17:24,086 --> 00:17:27,263
I am not the James Joyce
of <i>Ulysses.</i>

140
00:17:28,482 --> 00:17:31,050
I am the James Joyce
of failed endeavor,

141
00:17:32,225 --> 00:17:35,315
fading glory
and encroaching decay.

142
00:17:36,446 --> 00:17:38,666
My head is full of pebbles,
and rubbish,

143
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,278
and bits of glass,
and broken matches.

144
00:17:44,802 --> 00:17:47,936
Why would you wish to set out
on such a dispiriting journey?

145
00:17:50,634 --> 00:17:52,375
Mr. Joyce,
I'd rather watch you fail

146
00:17:52,549 --> 00:17:53,855
than anyone else succeed.

147
00:18:06,955 --> 00:18:08,043
Do not come early.

148
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:10,915
I am easily startled
in the mornings.

149
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:44,645
Don't do it.

150
00:18:46,516 --> 00:18:47,387
What?

151
00:18:47,778 --> 00:18:48,779
Write.

152
00:18:50,999 --> 00:18:52,043
Only something
I was considering.

153
00:18:52,479 --> 00:18:53,828
Ah, good! Well...

154
00:18:54,959 --> 00:18:58,049
stay there... in consideration.

155
00:18:59,834 --> 00:19:00,922
It's safe there.

156
00:19:05,970 --> 00:19:09,191
A book should not be
planned out beforehand,

157
00:19:10,149 --> 00:19:11,193
Mr. Beckett.

158
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,458
As one writes,
the book will form itself,

159
00:19:15,632 --> 00:19:18,200
subject to, and shaped by,

160
00:19:18,374 --> 00:19:20,333
the constant
emotional promptings

161
00:19:20,507 --> 00:19:21,595
of one's personality.

162
00:19:25,251 --> 00:19:28,993
In <i>Ulysses,</i>
I wanted only to give the color

163
00:19:29,168 --> 00:19:34,085
and tone of Dublin,
its hallucinatory vapors, its...

164
00:19:35,522 --> 00:19:37,045
...tattered confusion.

165
00:19:37,872 --> 00:19:40,918
The atmosphere of its bars,
its social immobility.

166
00:19:41,919 --> 00:19:43,747
These could only be conveyed
by the texture of...

167
00:19:43,921 --> 00:19:44,879
Dumplings.

168
00:19:48,839 --> 00:19:50,841
For supper,
we shall be having dumplings.

169
00:19:52,103 --> 00:19:53,322
He is to stay?

170
00:19:53,801 --> 00:19:55,281
Lucia would like him to stay.

171
00:19:56,412 --> 00:19:57,370
Is that wise?

172
00:19:58,893 --> 00:20:00,982
Lucia would like him to stay.

173
00:20:04,855 --> 00:20:06,030
Then he shall stay.

174
00:20:10,034 --> 00:20:11,035
Thank you, sir.

175
00:20:12,123 --> 00:20:13,168
It's very kind.

176
00:20:13,908 --> 00:20:16,127
Whether indeed
this is a kindness, Mr. Beckett,

177
00:20:16,302 --> 00:20:17,477
I suggest you...

178
00:20:18,782 --> 00:20:20,915
save your conclusion
for another day.

179
00:20:22,743 --> 00:20:24,527
Younger Samuel: I was interested
in something you said

180
00:20:24,701 --> 00:20:25,963
in <i>The Paris Review,</i> Mr. Joyce,

181
00:20:26,137 --> 00:20:28,488
that while life
is fundamentally tragic,

182
00:20:28,662 --> 00:20:30,403
that it also must be seen
as humorous.

183
00:20:30,577 --> 00:20:32,883
Ah, yes. Well, what I was
clumsily aiming for there...

184
00:20:33,057 --> 00:20:35,843
Do you know,
the first night I met Jim,

185
00:20:36,365 --> 00:20:38,846
I mistook him
for a Swedish sailor,

186
00:20:39,586 --> 00:20:41,718
what with his cap
and his plimsolls.

187
00:20:44,634 --> 00:20:46,506
I'm sorry, Mr. Joyce,
<i>The Paris Review...</i>

188
00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:48,377
Yeah, the object
of any work of art

189
00:20:48,595 --> 00:20:50,205
is the transference
of emotion...

190
00:20:50,423 --> 00:20:52,773
But when he spoke,
sure I knew him at once

191
00:20:53,208 --> 00:20:55,166
to be just another
Dublin jackeen

192
00:20:55,384 --> 00:20:56,864
chatting up a country girl.

193
00:20:57,081 --> 00:20:59,475
- Did you arrive in Paris alone?
- Uh, I did.

194
00:20:59,997 --> 00:21:01,390
Oh.
- Younger Samuel: Yeah.

195
00:21:02,391 --> 00:21:04,480
I'm sorry, Mr. Joyce,
the, uh, the role of humor...

196
00:21:04,654 --> 00:21:05,916
There must be humor.

197
00:21:06,526 --> 00:21:08,832
For the disparity of what a man
wants to be and what he is,

198
00:21:09,006 --> 00:21:12,445
is... no doubt laughable.

199
00:21:12,749 --> 00:21:14,447
Do you know,
I wish he'd been a musician.

200
00:21:15,491 --> 00:21:16,710
I always said,

201
00:21:17,058 --> 00:21:18,755
Jim's a better singer
than he is a writer.

202
00:21:18,929 --> 00:21:20,583
So sorry, would you let him
finish his thought, please?

203
00:21:20,801 --> 00:21:22,063
Would you take me dancing?

204
00:21:22,759 --> 00:21:24,152
Me?

205
00:21:24,500 --> 00:21:25,414
Tonight?

206
00:21:25,632 --> 00:21:27,286
Now, there's an idea.

207
00:21:27,590 --> 00:21:29,897
- I... I don't think that I...
- Oh, it would be a blessing.

208
00:21:31,855 --> 00:21:32,813
Right.

209
00:21:33,509 --> 00:21:34,380
Not for you.

210
00:21:37,687 --> 00:21:40,168
Then you can return tomorrow,
to work.

211
00:21:40,473 --> 00:21:42,388
Oh, but we are to dance.

212
00:21:43,432 --> 00:21:46,479
And here's me,
without a stitch to wear.

213
00:23:17,874 --> 00:23:21,182
So, you're a writer?

214
00:23:22,270 --> 00:23:23,402
How did you know?

215
00:23:24,098 --> 00:23:27,841
Because you're in Paris,
and because you can't dance.

216
00:23:28,102 --> 00:23:30,321
And you?

217
00:23:31,235 --> 00:23:33,542
- And me?
- Younger Samuel: Yes, Lucia,

218
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,327
what will you do
in this paltry life of ours?

219
00:23:37,372 --> 00:23:40,070
I will dance!

220
00:23:40,897 --> 00:23:43,117
- Why not?
- I'll look after you.

221
00:23:44,031 --> 00:23:45,293
Excuse me?

222
00:23:45,902 --> 00:23:49,079
Well, can you imagine my father
without my mother?

223
00:23:49,950 --> 00:23:50,951
I often do.

224
00:23:51,952 --> 00:23:55,259
We must tell them, Beckett,
of our plans.

225
00:23:59,786 --> 00:24:01,614
The world must know!

226
00:24:16,846 --> 00:24:18,282
Younger Samuel: <i>Lucia is...</i>

227
00:24:20,067 --> 00:24:22,156
Well, one might say,

228
00:24:22,330 --> 00:24:24,985
and I mean this
with no pejorative intention,

229
00:24:25,202 --> 00:24:30,251
that she possesses...
at least to some degree,

230
00:24:31,252 --> 00:24:32,427
a certain giddiness.

231
00:24:33,210 --> 00:24:35,212
Oh, she's mad, Beckett.

232
00:24:36,387 --> 00:24:37,476
Gloriously so.

233
00:24:39,652 --> 00:24:40,566
Right.

234
00:24:42,611 --> 00:24:44,134
I'm sorry,

235
00:24:44,308 --> 00:24:46,876
I'm not sure that I understand
your usage of that term.

236
00:24:47,355 --> 00:24:49,531
My use of it is, uh,
medical, Beckett.

237
00:24:49,705 --> 00:24:51,446
She is medically mad.

238
00:24:52,621 --> 00:24:54,493
- Younger Samuel: I see.
- The worst kind.

239
00:24:55,581 --> 00:24:56,625
Undoubtedly.

240
00:24:57,408 --> 00:24:59,149
Her mother wants
to send her off to live

241
00:24:59,323 --> 00:25:01,848
in some institution or other,
but I... well, I don't know.

242
00:25:02,849 --> 00:25:03,893
Because you see,

243
00:25:04,633 --> 00:25:07,462
if she's here, then we can
always send her there.

244
00:25:07,636 --> 00:25:09,246
But if she's there...

245
00:25:10,378 --> 00:25:12,598
...then there's nowhere
else to send her.

246
00:25:13,512 --> 00:25:14,687
Do you see?

247
00:25:15,165 --> 00:25:16,297
Only too clearly.

248
00:25:17,124 --> 00:25:19,605
Good, then we're squared away.

249
00:25:21,998 --> 00:25:24,435
But perhaps... and... and...
I mean, with hindsight,

250
00:25:24,610 --> 00:25:26,394
perhaps you could
have told me of this condition,

251
00:25:26,568 --> 00:25:27,917
before I'd agreed to escort her.

252
00:25:28,091 --> 00:25:29,484
Oh, I couldn't do that, Beckett.

253
00:25:29,658 --> 00:25:31,007
For then you wouldn't
have agreed. Do you see?

254
00:25:31,617 --> 00:25:34,271
You would have run
for the hills, and rightly so.

255
00:25:37,318 --> 00:25:40,060
Dumplings. For supper,
we shall be having dumplings.

256
00:25:40,234 --> 00:25:43,106
I'm afraid, this evening
I must reluctantly decline

257
00:25:43,324 --> 00:25:44,760
your offer of kindness.

258
00:25:45,065 --> 00:25:46,632
Oh, no, you can't!

259
00:25:46,980 --> 00:25:50,026
Lucia's expecting you to stay,
and then take her dancing.

260
00:25:50,766 --> 00:25:53,203
And Lucia's not a spirit
to unsettle,

261
00:25:53,726 --> 00:25:56,206
as I...
I suspect you have detected.

262
00:25:57,251 --> 00:26:00,341
And we need that time,
young Mr. Beckett.

263
00:26:00,515 --> 00:26:02,473
We need
that blessed tranquility,

264
00:26:02,648 --> 00:26:03,736
we need it.

265
00:26:04,519 --> 00:26:06,260
So, you can have
your hot supper,

266
00:26:06,434 --> 00:26:11,831
and then take Lucia dancing,
or you can leave and not return.

267
00:26:13,528 --> 00:26:14,573
So, what is it now?

268
00:26:16,009 --> 00:26:17,140
Is it banishment...

269
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:19,403
or is it dumplings?

270
00:26:23,538 --> 00:26:24,583
It is dumplings.

271
00:26:27,107 --> 00:26:28,543
It is dumplings.

272
00:26:38,814 --> 00:26:40,816
You know, Beckett, there's a...

273
00:26:43,602 --> 00:26:46,866
a curious kind of honor code...

274
00:26:47,910 --> 00:26:52,741
among men, which obliges them
to assist one another

275
00:26:53,046 --> 00:26:56,092
and huddle together
for protection.

276
00:26:56,615 --> 00:26:58,791
The result, quite often,
is that they...

277
00:27:00,401 --> 00:27:04,797
wake up the next morning
sitting in the same ditch.

278
00:27:13,283 --> 00:27:14,633
Welcome to the ditch.

279
00:27:19,812 --> 00:27:26,557
<i>♪ I ain't got nobody ♪</i>

280
00:27:26,819 --> 00:27:33,129
<i>♪ And ain't nobody cares
About me ♪</i>

281
00:27:33,913 --> 00:27:37,830
<i>♪ That's why I'm sad ♪</i>

282
00:27:38,004 --> 00:27:41,616
<i>♪ And lonely ♪</i>

283
00:27:43,531 --> 00:27:46,055
<i>♪ Won't some sweet daddy ♪</i>

284
00:27:46,229 --> 00:27:51,321
<i>♪ Take a chance with me? ♪</i>

285
00:27:53,672 --> 00:27:56,631
<i>♪ I ain't ♪</i>

286
00:27:56,805 --> 00:28:01,680
<i>♪ Got nobody ♪</i>

287
00:28:02,942 --> 00:28:06,119
<i>♪ And ain't nobody care ♪</i>

288
00:28:06,293 --> 00:28:10,384
<i>♪ About poor, silly me ♪</i>

289
00:29:59,275 --> 00:30:00,842
You know, Beckett, I have, uh,

290
00:30:01,060 --> 00:30:02,583
found myself
recently considering,

291
00:30:02,757 --> 00:30:04,237
in some depth,

292
00:30:04,411 --> 00:30:07,849
the central conflict
of the writer.

293
00:30:08,676 --> 00:30:10,243
Would you like to hear
my findings?

294
00:30:11,984 --> 00:30:13,072
I would, but I fear
you won't be given

295
00:30:13,246 --> 00:30:14,421
the time to tell me.

296
00:30:15,639 --> 00:30:16,989
The important thing...

297
00:30:18,468 --> 00:30:21,515
is not what we write,
but how we write.

298
00:30:22,995 --> 00:30:25,214
We must write dangerously, Beckett.

299
00:30:26,912 --> 00:30:29,044
What is imaginative
is the contrary

300
00:30:29,218 --> 00:30:31,351
to all that
is concise and clear.

301
00:30:32,265 --> 00:30:33,962
Most people's lives
are made up of jugs,

302
00:30:34,136 --> 00:30:36,138
and pots, and plates, backstreets,

303
00:30:36,312 --> 00:30:39,446
and blousy living rooms,
inhabited by blousy women...

304
00:30:40,926 --> 00:30:43,754
and a thousand
daily sordid incidents

305
00:30:43,929 --> 00:30:45,800
that seep into our minds,

306
00:30:45,974 --> 00:30:48,455
no matter how we strive
to keep them out.

307
00:30:51,066 --> 00:30:52,981
These are the furniture
of our lives.

308
00:30:55,070 --> 00:30:57,246
The greatest secret
of them all, Beckett...

309
00:30:58,987 --> 00:31:00,859
...the biggest key
to the biggest door...

310
00:31:01,033 --> 00:31:02,208
It's time.

311
00:31:03,339 --> 00:31:06,081
Yes, it is. It is time.
- For fuck's sake.

312
00:31:06,255 --> 00:31:09,650
- What? What is it?
- Father, go easy on him.

313
00:31:09,824 --> 00:31:11,565
Don't drag him over the coals.

314
00:31:11,739 --> 00:31:14,524
He will not. He will support
the endeavor, as I do.

315
00:31:14,698 --> 00:31:17,353
This is the most wonderful
moment of my life!

316
00:31:17,527 --> 00:31:18,615
What is?

317
00:31:18,877 --> 00:31:20,095
Our engagement.

318
00:31:26,014 --> 00:31:27,146
This is the end.

319
00:31:28,408 --> 00:31:29,539
Oh, Christ.

320
00:31:30,453 --> 00:31:32,194
I'm sorry,
but this is the end of it.

321
00:31:33,152 --> 00:31:34,283
Would it be so bad?

322
00:31:34,588 --> 00:31:35,719
So bad?

323
00:31:36,198 --> 00:31:38,418
Mother,
this is cause for jubilation!

324
00:31:38,635 --> 00:31:41,029
No, Lucia,
this is cause for revelation.

325
00:31:42,770 --> 00:31:45,860
Shall we move to dessert?
I've risked a trifle.

326
00:31:46,469 --> 00:31:48,036
Younger Samuel:
I've offered you companionship

327
00:31:48,210 --> 00:31:51,039
these past few months
as a kindness and as a favor...

328
00:31:52,345 --> 00:31:54,260
but it's not
what you think it is, Lucia.

329
00:31:54,521 --> 00:31:56,697
And that's troubled me greatly,
because I always assumed

330
00:31:56,871 --> 00:31:58,220
that it would lead
to this outcome.

331
00:31:58,438 --> 00:32:01,223
And... now, here we are.

332
00:32:03,660 --> 00:32:07,360
I am sorry, Lucia...
for my part.

333
00:32:14,149 --> 00:32:15,107
Was this you, Mother?

334
00:32:17,892 --> 00:32:21,940
We simply encouraged the...
Well, I mean, there is a...

335
00:32:22,549 --> 00:32:23,811
there is a wonderful bond.

336
00:32:25,117 --> 00:32:26,770
I mean, you are bonded,
are you not?

337
00:32:30,122 --> 00:32:31,253
There is a bond.

338
00:32:31,688 --> 00:32:33,429
There's more
of an unhappy welding.

339
00:33:10,858 --> 00:33:12,903
They took her away
soon after that.

340
00:33:14,383 --> 00:33:15,819
Inner Sam:
How could they not?

341
00:33:17,691 --> 00:33:20,259
I could help her
with the money...

342
00:33:21,564 --> 00:33:23,610
pay for her... care.

343
00:33:25,090 --> 00:33:27,831
She's been in the same asylum
for 32 years.

344
00:33:28,615 --> 00:33:30,747
You must have a great impression
of yourself

345
00:33:30,965 --> 00:33:35,100
that you can take the blame
for 32 years and counting.

346
00:33:37,189 --> 00:33:40,583
She hung over us, Joyce and I.

347
00:33:41,410 --> 00:33:44,544
Every conversation,
from that day on, there she was.

348
00:33:44,718 --> 00:33:46,415
Dancing behind the words.

349
00:33:46,807 --> 00:33:49,766
Don't you think that applies
to all his conversations,

350
00:33:49,984 --> 00:33:52,204
all his words?
She was his daughter.

351
00:33:52,421 --> 00:33:55,424
He never forgave me.

352
00:33:55,772 --> 00:33:58,340
Oh, he told you he forgave you.

353
00:33:59,907 --> 00:34:02,692
No, he had his revenge.

354
00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:05,652
We'll come to that.

355
00:34:06,914 --> 00:34:09,612
So who deserves
this prize money?

356
00:34:12,267 --> 00:34:14,226
Do we have to go on with this?

357
00:34:14,704 --> 00:34:16,489
You were the one who started it.

358
00:34:17,098 --> 00:34:18,926
I'm ill with regret.

359
00:34:20,275 --> 00:34:21,537
You mean Suzanne?

360
00:34:21,929 --> 00:34:23,104
No, no, not yet.

361
00:34:25,715 --> 00:34:26,716
Alfred?

362
00:34:31,547 --> 00:34:32,505
Alfy.

363
00:34:38,032 --> 00:34:39,077
Alfy.

364
00:34:39,381 --> 00:34:42,167
Do not use Alfy
to sneak in Suzanne.

365
00:34:43,211 --> 00:34:45,257
You have my word, I promise.

366
00:35:33,827 --> 00:35:34,828
Good.

367
00:35:37,265 --> 00:35:38,223
Keep going.

368
00:35:53,238 --> 00:35:54,891
He'll never forgive me, Alfy.

369
00:35:58,591 --> 00:36:00,854
Do you think he would let us
translate his work

370
00:36:01,028 --> 00:36:02,551
if you weren't already forgiven?

371
00:36:04,945 --> 00:36:07,513
I think he'd find
such simplicity insulting.

372
00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:20,656
Thank you, thank you.

373
00:36:21,570 --> 00:36:24,573
I speak not just
for the publishing house,

374
00:36:24,791 --> 00:36:28,621
but for Mr. Joyce himself,
when I say that this work

375
00:36:28,925 --> 00:36:31,493
is a masterpiece
of modern translation.

376
00:36:32,059 --> 00:36:34,148
First, we must thank
two students,

377
00:36:34,322 --> 00:36:36,455
Samuel Beckett and Alfred Péron,

378
00:36:36,629 --> 00:36:39,371
for a valiant first attempt.

379
00:36:39,588 --> 00:36:41,547
A what?
- Here we go.

380
00:36:41,721 --> 00:36:43,549
Which was then
so expertly corrected

381
00:36:43,723 --> 00:36:45,028
by our translators,

382
00:36:45,203 --> 00:36:47,292
Paul Léon, Ivan Gul, and...

383
00:36:47,466 --> 00:36:49,555
- Who the fuck are they?
- ...of course,
Mr. Joyce himself.

384
00:36:49,729 --> 00:36:51,121
Revenge.

385
00:36:51,339 --> 00:36:52,514
Welcome, Paul.

386
00:36:58,607 --> 00:37:00,479
We were working with gold.

387
00:37:01,741 --> 00:37:05,223
All we had to do was polish it.
But let us be clear...

388
00:37:05,397 --> 00:37:07,094
- Why?
- ...this was not work.

389
00:37:07,268 --> 00:37:08,443
Because she's in an asylum now.

390
00:37:08,617 --> 00:37:09,836
This was the greatest fortune...

391
00:37:10,010 --> 00:37:11,272
And you must be punished
for that?

392
00:37:11,490 --> 00:37:13,100
...we could have
ever been granted.

393
00:37:13,666 --> 00:37:14,971
And I must be punished for that?

394
00:37:15,145 --> 00:37:16,625
To learn at the feet
of a master.

395
00:37:16,799 --> 00:37:20,281
I'm sorry, Alfy,
you're collateral damage.

396
00:37:20,455 --> 00:37:24,938
...literary jewels, and to turn
them to catch the light.

397
00:37:25,678 --> 00:37:26,940
What shall we do?

398
00:37:27,157 --> 00:37:28,855
We shall drink.

399
00:37:29,203 --> 00:37:30,291
Yes.

400
00:37:30,465 --> 00:37:31,640
- For a long time.
- Forever.

401
00:37:33,076 --> 00:37:34,687
We should certainly
give it a go.

402
00:37:49,005 --> 00:37:51,878
Well, Alfy, we gave it a go.

403
00:37:53,271 --> 00:37:56,099
Let me leave, while dignity
still remains a possibility.

404
00:37:56,535 --> 00:37:57,405
Nah.

405
00:38:01,279 --> 00:38:02,367
Good evening, Sam.

406
00:38:05,195 --> 00:38:06,806
Lucky for Stalin,
we're drunk.

407
00:38:07,023 --> 00:38:09,809
You've come to take him away...

408
00:38:11,463 --> 00:38:14,204
to drag my friend
from a life of possibility

409
00:38:14,553 --> 00:38:16,903
to the eternal drudgery
of commitment.

410
00:38:18,905 --> 00:38:20,950
No, Sam, we came to join you.

411
00:38:22,561 --> 00:38:24,258
It is Suzanne from the tennis.

412
00:38:27,957 --> 00:38:28,915
Hello, Sam.

413
00:38:30,612 --> 00:38:34,616
You've come to capture me,
to add me to your tribe.

414
00:38:35,356 --> 00:38:37,402
What makes you think
that I want to capture you?

415
00:38:44,496 --> 00:38:46,193
Then let us both avoid the trap.

416
00:39:12,175 --> 00:39:17,355
Hey.
Hey, <i>mon cheri.</i>

417
00:39:18,181 --> 00:39:19,226
Hey.

418
00:39:19,487 --> 00:39:22,534
Hey, Irish, you want a girl?

419
00:39:22,969 --> 00:39:24,187
Hey.

420
00:39:24,753 --> 00:39:27,234
Prudent, your stamina
for this exchange is remarkable,

421
00:39:27,408 --> 00:39:28,670
but I would never want...

422
00:39:31,978 --> 00:39:33,240
Why?

423
00:40:21,723 --> 00:40:22,811
Suzanne.

424
00:40:27,033 --> 00:40:28,034
Yes.

425
00:40:28,643 --> 00:40:29,905
Younger Suzanne:
From the tennis.

426
00:40:32,038 --> 00:40:33,300
Yes.

427
00:40:35,215 --> 00:40:36,825
So, they gave you
a private room.

428
00:40:37,565 --> 00:40:38,610
Younger Samuel: Joyce.

429
00:40:39,741 --> 00:40:42,222
You know, you shouldn't let
a man be your keeper.

430
00:40:42,875 --> 00:40:44,920
Younger Samuel:
Thank you for your advice.

431
00:40:45,965 --> 00:40:47,445
No, this is not advice.

432
00:40:48,750 --> 00:40:50,143
This is instruction.

433
00:40:51,579 --> 00:40:55,017
And... if this is to happen,

434
00:40:55,714 --> 00:40:57,411
I suggest that you
grow accustomed

435
00:40:57,585 --> 00:40:59,152
to taking my instruction.

436
00:40:59,892 --> 00:41:01,154
If what is to happen?

437
00:41:06,115 --> 00:41:07,247
Such coyness.

438
00:41:09,815 --> 00:41:11,425
You do not like attraction.

439
00:41:13,079 --> 00:41:14,210
And neither do I.

440
00:41:16,256 --> 00:41:18,606
Younger Suzanne:
So, I think that this side of it

441
00:41:19,041 --> 00:41:20,303
will be agreeable.

442
00:41:21,479 --> 00:41:24,786
But more importantly, I...

443
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:27,572
<i>Oui?</i>

444
00:41:27,746 --> 00:41:29,617
Younger Suzanne:

445
00:41:30,009 --> 00:41:31,314
<i>Bien sûr, madame.</i>

446
00:41:35,884 --> 00:41:37,451
Younger Suzanne:
I brought you this.

447
00:41:39,061 --> 00:41:40,280
It's Calvados.

448
00:41:43,283 --> 00:41:45,894
Samuel,
you should write about this...

449
00:41:47,592 --> 00:41:49,332
because it feels
like an experience

450
00:41:50,029 --> 00:41:51,334
a writer should explore.

451
00:41:52,118 --> 00:41:54,947
Especially one like you,
with your great love of death.

452
00:41:58,603 --> 00:41:59,865
I did read your book.

453
00:42:00,605 --> 00:42:02,694
Well,
you were in exclusive company.

454
00:42:03,129 --> 00:42:05,000
No, I must speak
to your publisher

455
00:42:05,174 --> 00:42:07,176
about why I had to work
so hard to find it.

456
00:42:27,980 --> 00:42:29,329
What's more important?

457
00:42:30,635 --> 00:42:33,333
You said there is something
more important than attraction.

458
00:42:34,247 --> 00:42:35,248
What is it?

459
00:42:39,818 --> 00:42:40,906
Well...

460
00:42:43,038 --> 00:42:44,605
you have a great talent...

461
00:42:46,302 --> 00:42:48,348
and I don't think
that you should waste it.

462
00:42:50,437 --> 00:42:51,481
In fact...

463
00:42:53,353 --> 00:42:55,616
I think that you would benefit
from a companion

464
00:42:55,790 --> 00:42:57,705
who would stop you
from doing so.

465
00:42:59,881 --> 00:43:02,536
And I think I would benefit
from being that companion.

466
00:43:08,716 --> 00:43:09,717
Hmm.

467
00:43:18,596 --> 00:43:19,553
Well...

468
00:43:26,255 --> 00:43:27,169
Um...

469
00:43:28,127 --> 00:43:30,651
I will return tomorrow,
if you'd like me to?

470
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:39,573
Yes, you will return tomorrow.

471
00:44:42,070 --> 00:44:43,550
It is an unlikely match.

472
00:44:45,421 --> 00:44:46,509
It's not a match.

473
00:44:46,988 --> 00:44:48,773
She is so serious. And you?

474
00:44:48,947 --> 00:44:50,383
Well,
you were stabbed by a pimp.

475
00:44:50,688 --> 00:44:52,385
I was a winged bird, Alfy,

476
00:44:53,168 --> 00:44:55,431
and she came to me
with a box of straw.

477
00:44:57,651 --> 00:44:59,871
Well, I'm sure you can
fit in one more.

478
00:45:00,698 --> 00:45:01,742
Tone.

479
00:45:02,569 --> 00:45:04,397
You and your archaic monogamy.

480
00:45:04,658 --> 00:45:06,965
It brings rewards
beyond the carnal, Samuel.

481
00:45:07,879 --> 00:45:09,619
It is a higher state of being.

482
00:45:10,359 --> 00:45:12,318
Well, maybe someday
I'll clamber up from the dirt

483
00:45:12,492 --> 00:45:14,407
and join on you
in that higher state.

484
00:45:16,322 --> 00:45:18,106
Perhaps with Suzanne
from the tennis.

485
00:45:18,759 --> 00:45:19,717
No.

486
00:45:21,893 --> 00:45:23,590
The hand will not be overbid.

487
00:46:01,671 --> 00:46:02,760
Younger Samuel: Are you safe?

488
00:46:04,500 --> 00:46:05,937
Safer than most Jews.

489
00:46:12,552 --> 00:46:13,509
And you?

490
00:46:16,948 --> 00:46:18,688
As long as Ireland
stays neutral.

491
00:46:20,038 --> 00:46:23,476
And you, Sam?
Will you be staying neutral?

492
00:46:25,217 --> 00:46:26,174
You've joined.

493
00:46:29,351 --> 00:46:30,178
I have joined.

494
00:46:31,789 --> 00:46:34,879
Well... you're a soldier now.

495
00:46:39,187 --> 00:46:41,102
And they do not
just need soldiers.

496
00:46:41,929 --> 00:46:42,843
Lucky for you.

497
00:46:43,235 --> 00:46:44,323
Lucky for us.

498
00:46:49,458 --> 00:46:50,459
Take me to them.

499
00:46:55,595 --> 00:46:56,552
Sam.

500
00:47:01,079 --> 00:47:02,820
You should speak
to Suzanne first.

501
00:47:05,518 --> 00:47:06,475
I don't need to.

502
00:47:09,174 --> 00:47:10,218
We are one...

503
00:47:11,089 --> 00:47:12,220
she and I.

504
00:47:14,744 --> 00:47:15,745
Poor Suzanne.

505
00:47:16,137 --> 00:47:18,836
Poor Suzanne.

506
00:47:54,001 --> 00:47:55,873
I cannot let him join
without me.

507
00:48:54,018 --> 00:48:54,975
What now?

508
00:48:56,324 --> 00:48:57,325
We write.

509
00:48:59,849 --> 00:49:02,069
Troop movements
from all over France.

510
00:49:02,243 --> 00:49:04,506
Tips from farmers,
postal workers,

511
00:49:04,724 --> 00:49:07,335
anyone allowed to travel,
they all come through to us,

512
00:49:07,683 --> 00:49:08,815
God knows how.

513
00:49:08,989 --> 00:49:10,382
And then we work through them.

514
00:49:10,686 --> 00:49:13,298
We correlate, cross-reference.

515
00:49:13,820 --> 00:49:15,909
We need two sources,
or it doesn't count.

516
00:49:16,214 --> 00:49:19,043
And then we put it all together,
and we write our story.

517
00:49:20,609 --> 00:49:21,697
Take a photograph.

518
00:49:22,437 --> 00:49:24,657
And, once a week,
the film is sent to Britain.

519
00:49:25,223 --> 00:49:26,746
And how does it get
to the Brits?

520
00:49:29,314 --> 00:49:30,663
I only know how it leaves here.

521
00:49:31,838 --> 00:49:35,450
You will like
that part, just you wait.

522
00:49:55,818 --> 00:49:56,819
This.

523
00:49:59,474 --> 00:50:00,388
You see?

524
00:50:03,174 --> 00:50:04,653
Yeah, this part.

525
00:50:04,871 --> 00:50:06,351
I can do it? Okay, thank you,
that's very kind.

526
00:50:25,631 --> 00:50:29,678
Metaphors, Alfy. Metaphors...

527
00:50:40,211 --> 00:50:41,038
Hmm.

528
00:51:01,841 --> 00:51:04,626
They have taken Alfy.
They are taking everyone.

529
00:51:04,974 --> 00:51:06,019
Who?

530
00:51:06,672 --> 00:51:07,803
[whispers] Gestapo!

531
00:51:08,935 --> 00:51:10,110
Go, go!

532
00:52:13,434 --> 00:52:15,088
The train is cancelled,
rain at Poitiers.

533
00:52:22,965 --> 00:52:24,793
The train is cancelled,
rain at Poitiers.

534
00:52:30,625 --> 00:52:31,539
Sam!

535
00:52:47,773 --> 00:52:49,470
The train is cancelled,
rain at Poitiers.

536
00:53:03,571 --> 00:53:05,051
The train is cancelled,
rain at Poitiers.

537
00:53:14,626 --> 00:53:16,497
Younger Suzanne: Sam!

538
00:53:16,671 --> 00:53:17,803
Younger Suzanne: Sam, now!

539
00:56:20,159 --> 00:56:21,378
Why are you happy?

540
00:56:25,947 --> 00:56:27,862
We spend our days
scratching through the dirt

541
00:56:28,036 --> 00:56:29,386
in hope of a potato,

542
00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:31,605
while Europe falls around us,
and yet...

543
00:56:32,737 --> 00:56:33,607
you're happy.

544
00:56:34,826 --> 00:56:36,958
I mean, being here could be
many things, Sam.

545
00:56:38,351 --> 00:56:40,875
Of course, there's the war,
the fear...

546
00:56:43,269 --> 00:56:44,401
But not for me.

547
00:56:46,098 --> 00:56:48,274
Because, you see, for me,
it's just you and I together

548
00:56:48,448 --> 00:56:49,710
that stepped away from life.

549
00:56:51,016 --> 00:56:52,496
There's no one
who can get to you

550
00:56:52,670 --> 00:56:53,714
or take you away.

551
00:56:55,455 --> 00:56:57,152
And being trapped here
with you...

552
00:56:58,806 --> 00:57:01,200
it's a happiness
I have never known before,

553
00:57:02,114 --> 00:57:03,942
and I will likely
never know again.

554
00:57:10,209 --> 00:57:11,863
You know, I think you could
probably leave the pot

555
00:57:12,037 --> 00:57:13,255
for a little while.

556
00:57:13,865 --> 00:57:15,388
Just for a little while.

557
00:57:15,693 --> 00:57:17,303
You should take that
as a compliment.

558
00:57:20,393 --> 00:57:23,396
How far we have to fall for you
to risk a compliment.

559
00:57:24,832 --> 00:57:26,443
Well, let us fall further still.

560
00:57:54,035 --> 00:57:55,036
Younger Suzanne: Sam.

561
00:57:55,776 --> 00:57:57,648
Are you thinking of Alfy again?

562
00:57:59,824 --> 00:58:01,303
Do you think he's still alive?

563
00:58:06,700 --> 00:58:08,093
He stays alive in you.

564
00:58:12,271 --> 00:58:13,490
Resistance Soldier:

565
00:58:19,278 --> 00:58:20,497
Well, go on then...

566
00:58:21,759 --> 00:58:22,977
my brave soldier.

567
00:58:24,936 --> 00:58:26,503
You know they've given me
a gun now?

568
00:58:37,209 --> 00:58:38,210
I love you.

569
00:58:41,909 --> 00:58:42,867
I love you.

570
01:01:18,283 --> 01:01:20,415
Oh, what a hero.

571
01:01:23,549 --> 01:01:26,944
Like a Boy Scout, with a toy gun
in the wet grass,

572
01:01:27,771 --> 01:01:29,120
waiting for Nazis,

573
01:01:29,294 --> 01:01:31,470
who didn't have the decency
to show up.

574
01:01:31,818 --> 01:01:34,647
They gave you
the Croix de Guerre.

575
01:01:34,821 --> 01:01:36,997
Oh, they give you that
for staying alive.

576
01:01:38,956 --> 01:01:42,002
Is that your guilt,
that you stayed alive?

577
01:01:42,220 --> 01:01:43,221
It was me.

578
01:01:45,353 --> 01:01:49,880
I was the one who filled
Alfy's head full of... nonsense,

579
01:01:50,054 --> 01:01:52,926
of dreams,
and... and... and rainbows,

580
01:01:53,535 --> 01:01:55,320
and... and Baudelaire.

581
01:01:55,668 --> 01:01:57,975
But you were the one
staring at the stars.

582
01:01:58,366 --> 01:02:00,804
Because I knew he'd be staring
at the same ones.

583
01:02:01,152 --> 01:02:03,328
Even in that horrible place,

584
01:02:03,632 --> 01:02:05,852
they couldn't turn off
the stars.

585
01:02:06,766 --> 01:02:08,159
And what did I do?

586
01:02:08,550 --> 01:02:11,945
I went home to a warm bed,
a warm woman, while he...

587
01:02:12,424 --> 01:02:13,468
He...

588
01:02:20,258 --> 01:02:21,172
Hmm.

589
01:02:22,564 --> 01:02:25,176
You know that, in the camp...

590
01:02:26,177 --> 01:02:29,049
they said that he sang
to the others.

591
01:02:29,354 --> 01:02:32,313
Oh, that's just... fairy tales

592
01:02:32,487 --> 01:02:34,315
that we tell each other
about death.

593
01:02:34,489 --> 01:02:35,882
Inner Sam: But you used that...

594
01:02:36,927 --> 01:02:38,493
in <i>Waiting for Godot.</i>

595
01:02:38,755 --> 01:02:42,802
You used your worst fears
about Alfy in your own work.

596
01:02:43,194 --> 01:02:47,589
I... I... I thought
it might resolve something in...

597
01:02:48,068 --> 01:02:49,330
How could it?

598
01:02:56,163 --> 01:02:58,775
You know, there are some men

599
01:02:59,253 --> 01:03:01,342
who need to believe
in a better world,

600
01:03:01,516 --> 01:03:04,215
just like you need to believe
in a world that's worse.

601
01:03:05,259 --> 01:03:07,348
Who betrayed us to the Germans?

602
01:03:08,436 --> 01:03:12,092
Who sent Alfy
to that horrible place?

603
01:03:13,093 --> 01:03:14,225
It was the priest.

604
01:03:14,703 --> 01:03:16,053
Of course, it was.

605
01:03:16,531 --> 01:03:17,837
Oh...

606
01:03:18,055 --> 01:03:21,754
And to think
that I mislaid my faith.

607
01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:25,845
At least Alfy would have
enjoyed that.

608
01:03:26,715 --> 01:03:27,978
Inner Sam: Listen to me.

609
01:03:28,500 --> 01:03:31,720
You cannot blame yourself
for the war.

610
01:03:32,199 --> 01:03:34,114
Oh, I can try.

611
01:03:34,288 --> 01:03:35,724
No. Alfy's been dead.

612
01:03:35,899 --> 01:03:37,509
He's been dead
for a very long time,

613
01:03:37,683 --> 01:03:40,251
and he does not need
your money.

614
01:03:42,166 --> 01:03:42,993
Now...

615
01:03:44,472 --> 01:03:45,343
it's time.

616
01:03:46,387 --> 01:03:47,432
Suzanne.

617
01:03:48,346 --> 01:03:49,347
Properly.

618
01:03:52,872 --> 01:03:53,830
Can...

619
01:03:54,743 --> 01:03:56,006
can she come alone?

620
01:03:58,791 --> 01:03:59,661
No.

621
01:04:13,414 --> 01:04:14,372
Sam?

622
01:04:18,637 --> 01:04:19,551
Sam...

623
01:04:20,639 --> 01:04:21,814
you must go now.

624
01:04:23,729 --> 01:04:25,383
Itinerary and tickets.

625
01:04:25,862 --> 01:04:28,516
Don't sign anything
without speaking to me first.

626
01:04:30,127 --> 01:04:31,868
And don't drink
before the meeting.

627
01:04:35,393 --> 01:04:38,962
Do you really think
the BBC will want to do this?

628
01:04:40,311 --> 01:04:41,312
Yes!

629
01:04:42,487 --> 01:04:44,489
They would not want to meet you
if they did not.

630
01:04:45,925 --> 01:04:46,883
But...

631
01:04:47,927 --> 01:04:49,755
you like it, don't you?

632
01:04:50,538 --> 01:04:51,713
Yes, I do.

633
01:05:27,793 --> 01:05:28,881
Sam?

634
01:05:31,623 --> 01:05:32,667
I love you.

635
01:05:37,150 --> 01:05:38,282
I love you, too.

636
01:06:14,231 --> 01:06:15,493
Hello, sir.
How can I help?

637
01:06:15,667 --> 01:06:17,016
Barbara Bray, please.

638
01:06:17,190 --> 01:06:18,670
Okay.
Take a seat, please.

639
01:06:35,643 --> 01:06:36,557
Mr. Beckett?

640
01:06:37,471 --> 01:06:39,821
I'm Barbara Bray
from the Drama Department.

641
01:06:40,518 --> 01:06:41,388
Sam.

642
01:06:42,302 --> 01:06:44,652
What a bloody miserable day, hmm?

643
01:06:45,914 --> 01:06:48,221
Well then, Sam, if, um,

644
01:06:48,526 --> 01:06:51,094
if I were to sneak you up
to the BBC bar for a whiskey...

645
01:06:52,182 --> 01:06:55,054
and tell you everything
I love about your work,

646
01:06:55,228 --> 01:06:57,317
and beg you to bestow it
upon us,

647
01:06:58,144 --> 01:07:01,191
would that cause you to turn
all Irish and bashful?

648
01:07:02,018 --> 01:07:03,236
That would depend
on the whiskey.

649
01:07:07,284 --> 01:07:09,068
Well, this way.

650
01:07:17,859 --> 01:07:18,860
After you.

651
01:08:13,176 --> 01:08:15,134
So, they want the rights?

652
01:08:17,876 --> 01:08:18,746
Yes.

653
01:08:19,660 --> 01:08:20,618
Good.

654
01:08:21,923 --> 01:08:23,708
We'll do a separate deal
with the BBC

655
01:08:23,882 --> 01:08:25,057
for the translation.

656
01:08:27,929 --> 01:08:29,801
You must keep writing
in French, Sam.

657
01:08:30,541 --> 01:08:31,759
We get paid twice.

658
01:08:32,804 --> 01:08:33,631
Hmm.

659
01:08:37,417 --> 01:08:38,288
Please...

660
01:08:39,245 --> 01:08:41,639
tell me you did not offer him
a translation?

661
01:08:52,171 --> 01:08:53,129
Her.

662
01:09:04,444 --> 01:09:05,489
She will pay.

663
01:09:08,970 --> 01:09:10,146
For the translation.

664
01:09:11,321 --> 01:09:12,191
Yes.

665
01:09:15,716 --> 01:09:16,717
She...

666
01:09:17,283 --> 01:09:18,893
she'll pay for the translation.

667
01:10:06,985 --> 01:10:08,247
Nothing happens.

668
01:10:08,639 --> 01:10:10,815
Twice. Nothing happens, twice.

669
01:10:11,468 --> 01:10:13,121
Don't short-change me.

670
01:10:13,296 --> 01:10:15,950
It is maddening!

671
01:10:17,125 --> 01:10:18,214
I hope so.

672
01:10:21,042 --> 01:10:22,348
It is a masterpiece.

673
01:10:24,132 --> 01:10:25,090
God...

674
01:10:26,265 --> 01:10:27,266
I hope not.

675
01:10:29,877 --> 01:10:34,708
What is this place,
this wasteland where they wait?

676
01:10:36,232 --> 01:10:37,972
It's...

677
01:10:39,583 --> 01:10:44,675
it's the place we all go to,
when life drives us there.

678
01:10:48,548 --> 01:10:50,855
I should probably tell you
that I'm moving.

679
01:10:51,464 --> 01:10:52,813
Hmm.
- Hmm.

680
01:10:54,293 --> 01:10:55,729
And I should certainly tell you

681
01:10:55,903 --> 01:10:57,296
that I'm moving to Paris.

682
01:11:10,396 --> 01:11:11,658
No joy without pain.

683
01:11:11,832 --> 01:11:12,833
Indeed not.

684
01:11:13,965 --> 01:11:15,793
Quite the conundrum.

685
01:11:15,967 --> 01:11:16,837
Mm-hmm.

686
01:11:18,709 --> 01:11:20,885
So, what do you do?

687
01:11:22,800 --> 01:11:25,846
What does escape look like
at that time,

688
01:11:26,282 --> 01:11:27,457
to a man like you?

689
01:12:37,875 --> 01:12:38,876
Why?

690
01:12:43,620 --> 01:12:44,664
Because...

691
01:12:50,322 --> 01:12:51,976
Because I want her
to have the royalties

692
01:12:52,150 --> 01:12:53,630
of my work after I die,

693
01:12:54,195 --> 01:12:55,501
and she deserves it.

694
01:12:56,589 --> 01:12:58,852
She gave me the best days
of her life.

695
01:12:59,244 --> 01:13:01,159
She was the one
who said, "Keep writing,"

696
01:13:01,333 --> 01:13:03,509
when everybody else
said, "Stop."

697
01:13:07,383 --> 01:13:10,603
But all you are doing
is moving pain between us.

698
01:13:11,691 --> 01:13:14,390
No, you are who you are,

699
01:13:15,129 --> 01:13:16,696
and she is who she is.

700
01:13:18,568 --> 01:13:19,482
So...

701
01:13:20,787 --> 01:13:22,093
I'm in Paris...

702
01:13:23,660 --> 01:13:25,096
and nothing has changed?

703
01:13:26,837 --> 01:13:29,753
You're in Paris
and nothing has changed.

704
01:13:46,552 --> 01:13:47,858
So, uh...

705
01:13:49,033 --> 01:13:50,687
they want to produce the play.

706
01:13:51,470 --> 01:13:54,430
In London and Germany and...

707
01:13:55,431 --> 01:13:56,301
No.

708
01:13:58,912 --> 01:14:00,566
I know you don't like the play.

709
01:14:01,219 --> 01:14:02,394
I haven't read it.

710
01:14:03,047 --> 01:14:04,527
- Oh, really?
- No.

711
01:14:04,701 --> 01:14:06,485
If you haven't read it, why...

712
01:14:06,659 --> 01:14:09,488
Germany, London?
It's too much, Sam.

713
01:14:09,836 --> 01:14:12,186
They said it's really good.
Yes, it's good.

714
01:14:12,665 --> 01:14:13,623
You know why?

715
01:14:26,287 --> 01:14:29,856
It's too much, Sam.
It's all getting too much!

716
01:14:35,862 --> 01:14:38,299
<i>"When he came again,
we had it out."</i>

717
01:14:39,823 --> 01:14:42,129
<i>"He went on
about why he had to tell her,</i>

718
01:14:42,434 --> 01:14:43,740
<i>too risky and so on."</i>

719
01:14:45,219 --> 01:14:46,960
<i>"That meant he'd gone
back to her...</i>

720
01:14:48,614 --> 01:14:50,007
<i>back to that."</i>

721
01:14:52,618 --> 01:14:53,750
This is about us.

722
01:14:54,446 --> 01:14:55,708
How could it not be?

723
01:14:59,103 --> 01:15:01,366
- Has she read it?
- Yes.

724
01:15:02,062 --> 01:15:03,411
And what she did she say?

725
01:15:04,587 --> 01:15:05,849
That she hadn't read it.

726
01:15:10,027 --> 01:15:12,290
She can't hide
from this forever.

727
01:15:13,030 --> 01:15:15,119
I wish she could.

728
01:15:18,688 --> 01:15:20,472
I shall review it
for <i>The Observer.</i>

729
01:15:21,342 --> 01:15:24,563
Is there no end
to your sinning?

730
01:15:26,260 --> 01:15:29,525
No, we passed that
a long time ago.

731
01:15:31,004 --> 01:15:33,006
When he came again,
we had it out.
I felt like death.

732
01:15:33,180 --> 01:15:34,660
He went on about
why he had to tell her,

733
01:15:34,834 --> 01:15:36,053
too risky and so on.

734
01:15:36,532 --> 01:15:38,055
That meant he had gone
back to her, back to that.

735
01:15:38,229 --> 01:15:39,535
Pudding face, puffy, spots,
blubber mouth, jowls,

736
01:15:39,709 --> 01:15:41,145
no neck, dugs you could...

737
01:15:42,059 --> 01:15:43,495
Actress 2: He went on and on.
I could hear a mower,
an old hand mower.

738
01:15:43,669 --> 01:15:44,931
I stopped him and said
that whatever I might feel,

739
01:15:45,105 --> 01:15:46,454
I had no silly threats to offer,

740
01:15:46,629 --> 01:15:48,108
but not much stomach
for her leavings either.

741
01:15:48,282 --> 01:15:49,457
He thought that over
for a bit.

742
01:15:49,632 --> 01:15:51,155
Calves like a flunkey.

743
01:15:51,372 --> 01:15:52,548
When I saw her again,
she knew she was looking...

744
01:15:52,722 --> 01:15:53,940
...wretched.

745
01:15:54,114 --> 01:15:56,813
Pardon.

746
01:16:20,358 --> 01:16:21,359
Well?

747
01:16:21,707 --> 01:16:24,536
Were the words
not humiliation enough,

748
01:16:25,015 --> 01:16:27,365
that you had to also put me
in a pot?

749
01:16:27,800 --> 01:16:29,106
It's an urn.

750
01:16:30,498 --> 01:16:34,328
That is your defense, Sam,
that it is an urn?

751
01:16:36,156 --> 01:16:38,855
Sorry, but I have to write
what I s--

752
01:16:42,249 --> 01:16:44,556
- This is, uh...
- The other pot.

753
01:16:48,299 --> 01:16:49,387
I, um...

754
01:16:50,954 --> 01:16:52,520
I thought it was very brave.

755
01:16:52,738 --> 01:16:54,174
Thank you.

756
01:16:54,348 --> 01:16:56,568
It could not possibly have
been more cowardly.

757
01:17:02,139 --> 01:17:03,314
Thank you for coming.

758
01:17:05,055 --> 01:17:07,448
Please, be kind in your review.

759
01:17:07,971 --> 01:17:10,277
We have a tax bill to settle
in November.

760
01:17:14,151 --> 01:17:17,154
Well... it was very nice
to meet you.

761
01:17:18,111 --> 01:17:19,286
Don't be absurd.

762
01:17:26,380 --> 01:17:27,381
Good evening.

763
01:17:30,820 --> 01:17:33,300
She... she shouldn't have come.

764
01:17:34,824 --> 01:17:35,868
Sorry about that.

765
01:17:37,000 --> 01:17:37,914
It is not her.

766
01:17:38,871 --> 01:17:39,785
It is them.

767
01:17:40,046 --> 01:17:41,004
What do you mean?

768
01:17:42,005 --> 01:17:43,397
There are so many of them.

769
01:17:43,746 --> 01:17:46,574
Publishers, theater agents, journalists.

770
01:17:47,663 --> 01:17:49,969
They are talking about you
as if they know you,

771
01:17:50,491 --> 01:17:51,579
as if they own you.

772
01:17:51,797 --> 01:17:53,190
Isn't that what we wanted,

773
01:17:53,364 --> 01:17:55,409
after all these years,
after all the struggle?

774
01:17:56,019 --> 01:17:57,281
All... all the years of you,

775
01:17:57,455 --> 01:17:58,935
running from publisher
to publisher,

776
01:17:59,109 --> 01:18:02,068
living like hermits.
The denial, the sacrifice.

777
01:18:02,242 --> 01:18:03,548
- Isn't the...
- Mr. Beckett?

778
01:18:04,070 --> 01:18:06,246
It's a masterpiece,
you're a genius.

779
01:18:06,943 --> 01:18:08,684
- Thank you.
- Thank you so much.

780
01:18:10,860 --> 01:18:12,470
- So...
- All the years of sacrifice,

781
01:18:12,644 --> 01:18:13,689
of struggle.

782
01:18:14,037 --> 01:18:16,648
This is what we wanted.
We need them.

783
01:18:17,475 --> 01:18:20,347
But you have them.
So, you don't need me.

784
01:18:21,348 --> 01:18:23,437
Oh, so you want us
to stay in obscurity?

785
01:18:23,611 --> 01:18:25,352
You don't want us
to have success?

786
01:18:25,526 --> 01:18:29,052
You want us to be scratching
in the mud for potatoes again?

787
01:18:29,661 --> 01:18:32,446
You and I, Sam,
we're not made for victory.

788
01:18:32,708 --> 01:18:33,926
We won't survive it.

789
01:18:36,320 --> 01:18:38,583
The fight? We need to fight.

790
01:18:39,192 --> 01:18:42,326
So, let us retreat
from these people, from victory.

791
01:18:43,588 --> 01:18:44,632
Please...

792
01:18:45,372 --> 01:18:46,591
don't let us win.

793
01:19:03,477 --> 01:19:05,479
King Gustaf:
The Nobel Prize for Literature

794
01:19:05,958 --> 01:19:08,352
is hereby awarded to...

795
01:19:09,396 --> 01:19:10,615
Samuel Beckett.

796
01:19:37,860 --> 01:19:39,775
I didn't deserve it.

797
01:19:40,645 --> 01:19:42,386
No, you do not.

798
01:19:43,604 --> 01:19:44,780
But the work does.

799
01:19:45,955 --> 01:19:47,260
And for the work...

800
01:19:48,131 --> 01:19:49,132
I'm happy.

801
01:19:52,875 --> 01:19:53,832
Goodnight.

802
01:20:27,518 --> 01:20:30,086
Hard to take a man seriously
in pajamas.

803
01:20:32,566 --> 01:20:34,046
You should wear them more often.

804
01:20:35,265 --> 01:20:38,181
I've decided I'm giving
the money to Trinity College.

805
01:20:39,443 --> 01:20:40,836
Set up a scholarship,

806
01:20:41,532 --> 01:20:43,316
so that some boy like me

807
01:20:43,490 --> 01:20:45,666
doesn't have to rely
on a mother like her.

808
01:20:47,973 --> 01:20:49,105
Hmm.

809
01:20:49,322 --> 01:20:51,629
We've taken a long time
to get to that.

810
01:20:52,195 --> 01:20:54,632
Hmm.
So, now, you can leave me alone.

811
01:20:55,459 --> 01:20:56,590
I wish I could.

812
01:21:45,857 --> 01:21:47,903
- <i>Bonjour,</i> Marie.
<i>- Bonjour, monsieur.</i>

813
01:22:17,802 --> 01:22:18,759
Fight.

814
01:22:19,760 --> 01:22:20,848
Fight.

815
01:22:22,111 --> 01:22:23,112
Fight.

816
01:22:35,385 --> 01:22:36,777
This is yesterday's bread.

817
01:22:41,173 --> 01:22:42,914
Don't you know
they put at the front

818
01:22:43,088 --> 01:22:45,656
yesterday's bread
to trick the likes of you?

819
01:22:55,579 --> 01:22:57,146
These peaches
aren't ripe.

820
01:22:58,495 --> 01:23:00,584
We can barely mark them
with a finger.

821
01:23:03,282 --> 01:23:06,198
It's like sending
a child to the market.

822
01:23:07,460 --> 01:23:08,592
A child!

823
01:23:10,986 --> 01:23:13,466
These olives are Italian.

824
01:23:14,206 --> 01:23:17,775
They'll have called them French,
but they are Italian.

825
01:23:18,036 --> 01:23:20,169
They are too big to be French.

826
01:23:20,821 --> 01:23:24,390
You need to trust your eyes,
not the traders.

827
01:23:26,566 --> 01:23:27,567
What...

828
01:23:28,003 --> 01:23:29,482
a waste.

829
01:23:31,397 --> 01:23:34,009
You are a liar!

830
01:23:40,624 --> 01:23:43,801
You used to tell me
when you were going to her.

831
01:23:45,107 --> 01:23:46,325
Now you just go.

832
01:23:50,721 --> 01:23:55,943
There is none
of the other... business.

833
01:23:58,076 --> 01:23:59,686
Not for a long time.

834
01:24:01,297 --> 01:24:02,211
It's...

835
01:24:03,908 --> 01:24:05,475
just about work.

836
01:24:06,867 --> 01:24:08,173
That makes it worse.

837
01:24:09,827 --> 01:24:10,784
I know.

838
01:24:14,092 --> 01:24:16,529
I notice you have been gilding
her cage.

839
01:24:17,922 --> 01:24:19,663
I can still read a cheque book.

840
01:24:20,881 --> 01:24:22,274
My eyes can go on, Sam...

841
01:24:23,493 --> 01:24:25,451
for the last of your betrayals.

842
01:24:35,374 --> 01:24:36,549
She's a widow.

843
01:24:39,683 --> 01:24:40,814
So am I.

844
01:24:59,181 --> 01:25:02,358
The character slip, Sam.
The voice, well, it...

845
01:25:03,576 --> 01:25:05,012
it comes and goes.

846
01:25:06,579 --> 01:25:08,103
You haven't found it...

847
01:25:09,365 --> 01:25:11,541
because you haven't looked.

848
01:25:12,716 --> 01:25:16,154
Oh, you're so cruel
to an old man.

849
01:25:18,548 --> 01:25:21,464
Sadism is all I have left.

850
01:25:23,553 --> 01:25:25,250
The most worthwhile part

851
01:25:26,208 --> 01:25:27,165
of writing...

852
01:25:28,688 --> 01:25:29,733
the giving up.

853
01:25:31,082 --> 01:25:33,040
If you abandon this one...

854
01:25:34,868 --> 01:25:37,044
there will never be another.

855
01:25:38,045 --> 01:25:38,916
Good.

856
01:25:41,179 --> 01:25:44,051
I never wanted
to be a writer.

857
01:25:45,140 --> 01:25:47,142
Whatever I had, Barbara...

858
01:25:49,056 --> 01:25:50,101
long gone.

859
01:25:53,017 --> 01:25:56,368
I'm sorry for having to drag you
through all this.

860
01:26:02,200 --> 01:26:05,160
It was never
about the work, Sam.

861
01:26:06,248 --> 01:26:08,685
It was about working together.

862
01:26:11,775 --> 01:26:14,125
And I ask you
not to take that from me.

863
01:26:15,213 --> 01:26:16,083
Hmm.

864
01:26:20,262 --> 01:26:21,176
Not yet.

865
01:26:41,413 --> 01:26:44,634
Fight, fight, fight.

866
01:26:45,722 --> 01:26:47,811
Inner Sam:
Oh, don't be so dramatic.

867
01:26:47,985 --> 01:26:49,726
Oh, why don't you go away?

868
01:26:50,857 --> 01:26:52,250
You're like a nomad.

869
01:26:53,033 --> 01:26:56,428
Walking between the two of them
with your life on your back.

870
01:26:56,689 --> 01:26:57,951
Yes, but you see...

871
01:26:59,692 --> 01:27:02,521
the walking is the thing.

872
01:27:03,914 --> 01:27:05,872
It's like a blissful limbo.

873
01:27:07,091 --> 01:27:09,572
The walk is peace...

874
01:27:10,747 --> 01:27:11,835
hope.

875
01:27:13,706 --> 01:27:16,579
You used to walk out here
with Lucia, didn't you?

876
01:27:16,753 --> 01:27:17,797
Oh, yes.

877
01:27:19,234 --> 01:27:21,671
Yes. And Joyce.

878
01:27:23,194 --> 01:27:24,239
And Alfy.

879
01:27:25,457 --> 01:27:26,893
I like to be out here,

880
01:27:27,677 --> 01:27:28,982
alone with them.

881
01:27:31,637 --> 01:27:33,422
The dead are easy companions.

882
01:27:33,596 --> 01:27:34,597
Oh.

883
01:27:34,771 --> 01:27:35,859
Easier than you.

884
01:27:36,033 --> 01:27:37,208
Hmm.

885
01:27:37,382 --> 01:27:38,949
Though anybody is easier
than you.

886
01:27:40,472 --> 01:27:43,780
Well, it won't be long now
for you and me.

887
01:27:43,954 --> 01:27:44,911
Ah.

888
01:27:46,348 --> 01:27:49,046
Does it... does it get worse?

889
01:27:50,526 --> 01:27:52,441
Well, let's put it
this way, Sam.

890
01:27:54,443 --> 01:27:55,966
It doesn't get any better.

891
01:28:01,928 --> 01:28:02,929
That's it.

892
01:28:06,193 --> 01:28:07,282
Okay.

893
01:28:08,761 --> 01:28:09,588
Right.

894
01:28:11,024 --> 01:28:11,938
Right.

895
01:28:14,158 --> 01:28:15,028
Right.

896
01:28:38,617 --> 01:28:40,315
Oh, such a noise.

897
01:28:46,233 --> 01:28:47,278
I'm sorry.

898
01:28:51,587 --> 01:28:53,371
I always got the worst of you.

899
01:28:57,114 --> 01:28:58,115
Sometimes...

900
01:28:59,334 --> 01:29:00,596
I think back to...

901
01:29:01,727 --> 01:29:02,685
Roussillon.

902
01:29:03,599 --> 01:29:04,817
Our days there...

903
01:29:05,949 --> 01:29:06,950
in the war.

904
01:29:08,386 --> 01:29:09,431
Our little room.

905
01:29:11,215 --> 01:29:12,956
You bending over the fire.

906
01:29:16,916 --> 01:29:17,917
The nights.

907
01:29:19,789 --> 01:29:21,268
The warmth of the bed.

908
01:29:24,837 --> 01:29:25,969
The warmth of you.

909
01:29:29,625 --> 01:29:32,105
I remember you said once
that you could never...

910
01:29:32,845 --> 01:29:33,977
imagine...

911
01:29:35,935 --> 01:29:36,936
being happier.

912
01:29:38,503 --> 01:29:39,504
And I thought,

913
01:29:40,244 --> 01:29:41,288
"Oh...

914
01:29:41,941 --> 01:29:44,335
that's a mad thing to say."

915
01:29:47,643 --> 01:29:48,644
But now...

916
01:29:50,036 --> 01:29:51,995
now I think
you're completely right.

917
01:29:56,478 --> 01:29:57,392
I said I...

918
01:30:00,090 --> 01:30:01,265
I had been...

919
01:30:02,484 --> 01:30:03,398
so happy.

920
01:30:05,574 --> 01:30:07,663
And I will never be
so happy again.

921
01:30:10,143 --> 01:30:11,797
And I was right
with both.

922
01:30:13,277 --> 01:30:14,539
Because I knew you,

923
01:30:14,887 --> 01:30:17,629
and I knew the... the life
that was to come.

924
01:30:20,415 --> 01:30:22,591
I knew that I would never
have you again.

925
01:30:24,941 --> 01:30:25,942
Not like that.

926
01:30:31,077 --> 01:30:33,340
I owe everything...

927
01:30:35,212 --> 01:30:36,169
to you.

928
01:30:38,041 --> 01:30:39,129
And I...

929
01:30:39,912 --> 01:30:42,524
owe... everything...

930
01:30:43,307 --> 01:30:44,482
to you.

931
01:33:11,368 --> 01:33:13,065
Hmm?

932
01:33:15,154 --> 01:33:16,721
It's so hard...

933
01:33:18,941 --> 01:33:20,203
to lose you.

934
01:33:22,597 --> 01:33:23,598
But...

935
01:33:24,642 --> 01:33:27,079
to lose you to England...

936
01:33:30,343 --> 01:33:32,607
You never did
like writing endings.

937
01:33:32,781 --> 01:33:34,260
Hmm.

938
01:33:40,484 --> 01:33:41,833
When I was a boy...

939
01:33:43,618 --> 01:33:45,358
the happiest I ever was...

940
01:33:46,577 --> 01:33:48,535
was one day with my father...

941
01:33:51,538 --> 01:33:52,844
flying a kite.

942
01:33:55,325 --> 01:33:56,892
And I stood on the hillside...

943
01:33:57,980 --> 01:34:00,852
and I willed
with everything in me

944
01:34:01,940 --> 01:34:03,594
for it to stay in the sky.

945
01:34:04,160 --> 01:34:07,206
Because... up there,
there was hope...

946
01:34:08,381 --> 01:34:09,382
and breath...

947
01:34:10,557 --> 01:34:11,602
and freedom.

948
01:34:13,082 --> 01:34:15,084
But... when it landed...

949
01:34:16,912 --> 01:34:17,913
there was nothing.

950
01:34:23,440 --> 01:34:25,877
I'm so happy that you're leaving
when the...

951
01:34:26,661 --> 01:34:28,793
when the kite is still
in the air.

952
01:35:47,002 --> 01:35:49,047
<i>What a bloody miserable day.</i>

953
01:35:49,874 --> 01:35:51,354
<i>Welcome to the ditch.</i>

954
01:35:51,702 --> 01:35:53,922
<i>Hey, Irish,
you want a girl?</i>

955
01:35:54,096 --> 01:35:55,750
<i>Well, I'm sure
you can fit in one more.</i>

956
01:35:55,924 --> 01:35:58,796
<i>♪ Take a chance with me! ♪</i>

957
01:35:58,970 --> 01:36:00,058
Younger Suzanne: <i>I love you.</i>

958
01:36:00,493 --> 01:36:02,626
<i>Fight. Fight.</i>

959
01:36:03,453 --> 01:36:04,367
<i>Fight.</i>

960
01:36:04,541 --> 01:36:06,891
<i>What a waste.</i>

961
01:36:33,091 --> 01:36:34,527
Inner Sam: So, then...

962
01:36:34,963 --> 01:36:37,879
Oh, just let me go.

963
01:36:38,357 --> 01:36:39,445
Listen to me...

964
01:36:39,619 --> 01:36:42,231
Oh, you're such a torture.

965
01:36:43,319 --> 01:36:44,276
Listen to me.

966
01:36:46,278 --> 01:36:48,803
There was joy.

967
01:36:51,153 --> 01:36:52,719
For them, for you...

968
01:36:53,459 --> 01:36:55,635
there was joy.

969
01:36:56,549 --> 01:36:58,682
You know
there's nothing interesting...

970
01:36:59,465 --> 01:37:00,597
about joy.

971
01:37:02,381 --> 01:37:05,776
Well, I... I...
I would agree with you there.

972
01:37:08,779 --> 01:37:09,824
Do you remember...

973
01:37:10,955 --> 01:37:12,391
years ago...

974
01:37:14,002 --> 01:37:16,918
a student asked you about life?

975
01:37:18,745 --> 01:37:19,834
And you said...

976
01:37:20,878 --> 01:37:22,488
"Dance first..."

977
01:37:22,662 --> 01:37:23,533
Oh.

978
01:37:23,707 --> 01:37:25,100
"...think later."

979
01:37:25,404 --> 01:37:28,494
Well, it's later now.

980
01:37:28,668 --> 01:37:30,366
Oh, it always was, Sam.

981
01:37:31,758 --> 01:37:34,413
You couldn't wait to get through
the pleasure to the pain.

982
01:37:36,415 --> 01:37:39,157
That's not the way
to talk to a dying man.

983
01:37:40,942 --> 01:37:44,293
Oh, it is the way to talk
to a dying man.

984
01:37:49,646 --> 01:37:52,388
It was some life,
wasn't it, Sam?

985
01:37:56,261 --> 01:37:57,306
It was...

986
01:37:59,656 --> 01:38:00,700
A life.

987
01:38:02,659 --> 01:38:03,616
Well...

988
01:38:05,096 --> 01:38:06,097
then...

989
01:38:10,362 --> 01:38:11,886
There's nothing left...

990
01:38:14,366 --> 01:38:15,498
to say.
