00:11:52,462 --> 00:11:55,506
Naming your dog after him?
It's a little disrespectful.

176
00:11:55,673 --> 00:11:58,634
No, it's a gesture.
Yeah, an aggressive gesture.

177
00:11:58,802 --> 00:12:02,137
Think about it. You're a novelist.
You think this guy's the greatest.

178
00:12:02,305 --> 00:12:05,265
So you name your dog after him
to cut him down to size.

179
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,434
This way,
you can put him on a leash...

00:12:07,602 --> 00:12:09,269
...and yell "Bad Scotty"...

181
00:12:09,437 --> 00:12:12,606

212
00:14:25,114 --> 00:14:26,782
Who?
The girl.

213
00:14:26,950 --> 00:14:29,952

I go to sleep at night...

...just waiting to get to my typewriter
so I can be with her.

It's like...
It's like I'm falling in love with her.

216
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,795
That's wonderful.
I can't fall in love with a girl I write.

217
00:14:39,963 --> 00:14:41,713
Why not?
Because she's not real.

Isn't she? Are you sure?
No. Yes.

Raised in Dayton, Ohio.

ROSENTHAL: Why Dayton?
CALVIN: Sounds romantic.

230
00:15:23,298 --> 00:15:26,341
Ruby's first crushes were
Humphrey Bogart and John Lennon.

231
00:15:26,509 --> 00:15:29,011
Cried the day she found out
they were already dead.

232
00:15:30,471 --> 00:15:33,724
Ruby got kicked out of high school
for sleeping with her art teacher...

233
00:15:33,891 --> 00:15:36,852
...or maybe her Spanish teacher.
I haven't decided yet.

00:15:37,687 --> 00:15:40,480
Ruby can't drive.
She doesn't own a computer.

She hates her middle name,
which is Tiffany.

She always, always roots
for the underdog.

237

She's complicated.
That's what I like best about her.

Ruby's not so good at life sometimes.

00:15:54,037 --> 00:15:57,539
She forgets to open bills
or cash checks and...

00:15:58,916 --> 00:16:00,709
Her last boyfriend was 49.

241
00:16:00,877 --> 00:16:03,378
The one before that was an alcoholic.

It's okay, buddy.

1365
01:33:02,827 --> 01:33:04,495
Okay.

1366
01:33:06,331 --> 01:33:08,374
Nothing helps.

1367
01:33:10,502 --> 01:33:14,171
When was the last time you wrote, Cal?
I can't write.

1368
01:33:14,547 --> 01:33:16,507
Sure you can.

1369
01:33:16,841 --> 01:33:20,886
That's what you have over every other poor
schmuck out there with a broken heart.

1370
01:33:21,054 --> 01:33:22,888
You can write about it.

1371
01:33:23,056 --> 01:33:25,140
And who would wanna read that?

1372
01:33:25,308 --> 01:33:27,226
Lots of people.

1373
01:33:28,812 --> 01:33:30,437
Why not?

1374
01:33:31,564 --> 01:33:33,274
You got a pretty great story.

1375
01:33:33,441 --> 01:33:36,193
CALVIN:
Everyone will think I'm crazy.

1376
01:33:37,445 --> 01:33:39,154
HARRY:
No.

1377
01:33:39,948 --> 01:33:42,199
They'll think it's fiction.

1378
01:34:12,856 --> 01:34:17,234
CALVIN: This is the true and impossible
story of my very great love.

1379
01:34:17,402 --> 01:34:20,571
In the hope that she will not read this
and reproach me...

1380
01:34:20,739 --> 01:34:23,240
...I have withheld many telling details.

1381
01:34:24,659 --> 01:34:25,909
Her name...

1382
01:34:26,077 --> 01:34:29,538
...the particulars of her birth
and upbringing...

1383
01:34:29,706 --> 01:34:32,541
...and any identifying scars
or birthmarks.

1384
01:34:34,336 --> 01:34:38,088
All the same,
I cannot help but write this for her.

1385
01:34:38,840 --> 01:34:40,215
To tell her:

1386
01:34:40,383 --> 01:34:43,927
"I'm sorry for every word
I wrote to change you.

1387
01:34:44,429 --> 01:34:47,389
I'm sorry for so many things.

1388
01:34:48,892 --> 01:34:51,727
I couldn't see you when you were here.

1389
01:34:53,104 --> 01:34:57,441
And now that you're gone,
I see you everywhere."

1390
01:35:02,572 --> 01:35:04,948
CALVIN:
"One may read this and think it's magic...

1391
01:35:05,116 --> 01:35:08,410
...but falling in love is an act of magic.

1392
01:35:08,578 --> 01:35:10,621
So is writing.

1393
01:35:11,164 --> 01:35:13,540
It was once said of Catcher in the Rye:

1394
01:35:13,708 --> 01:35:17,294
'That rare miracle of fiction
has again come to pass.

1395
01:35:18,046 --> 01:35:24,426
A human being has been created
out of ink, paper and the imagination.'

1396
01:35:24,969 --> 01:35:27,596
I am no J.D. Salinger...

1397
01:35:27,931 --> 01:35:30,057
...but I have witnessed
a rare miracle.

1398
01:35:31,935 --> 01:35:33,769
Any writer can attest...

1399
01:35:33,937 --> 01:35:36,271
...in the luckiest, happiest state...

1400
01:35:36,439 --> 01:35:40,317
...the words are not coming from you,
but through you.

1401
01:35:41,653 --> 01:35:44,488
She came to me wholly herself.

1402
01:35:46,241 --> 01:35:49,827
I was just lucky enough to be there
to catch her."

1403
01:35:52,664 --> 01:35:54,206
Thank you.

1404
01:36:05,176 --> 01:36:08,595
Doesn't his imagination just,
uh, blow you away?

1405
01:36:08,763 --> 01:36:11,181
I mean, where does he come up
with these ideas?

1406
01:36:11,349 --> 01:36:12,975
Right?
SUSIE: Yeah.

1407
01:36:13,226 --> 01:36:15,352
Genius.
I don't know.

1408
01:36:15,854 --> 01:36:17,104
I don't know.

1409
01:36:17,272 --> 01:36:18,355
How are you?
What's up?

1410
01:36:21,359 --> 01:36:23,861
It's beautiful, Calvin.

1411
01:36:24,195 --> 01:36:25,195
Thank you.

1412
01:36:25,363 --> 01:36:29,908
Most of my patients don't take
my assignments this seriously.

1413
01:36:30,076 --> 01:36:34,788
I know you hoped that, by writing this,
I would realize that it never happened.

1414
01:36:34,956 --> 01:36:35,998
That I imagined her.

1415
01:36:38,084 --> 01:36:40,210
But the thing is...

1416
01:36:41,963 --> 01:36:44,756
...I don't need to make sense of this.

1417
01:36:45,800 --> 01:36:49,553
I don't care
if there's no good explanation.

1418
01:36:50,305 --> 01:36:52,347
I need you
to believe me anyway.

1419
01:36:54,142 --> 01:36:56,018
Just take the leap.

1420
01:36:56,686 --> 01:36:59,480
At least imagine how it could be true.

1421
01:36:59,939 --> 01:37:01,732
For me.

1422
01:37:02,484 --> 01:37:04,234
I'll work on that.

1423
01:37:09,157 --> 01:37:13,494

Hi.
Sorry, he's mine.

It's fine. He's so friendly.

Scotty. That's funny, that's...

That's the name of the dog
in this book.

1433

Have you read it?

1434
01:37:49,614 --> 01:37:51,448
Did you like it?

1435
01:37:54,285 --> 01:37:56,537
Sorry. Did you say something?

1436
01:37:56,704 --> 01:37:59,456
Yeah, I just asked if you liked it.

1437
01:37:59,624 --> 01:38:01,083
Uh, what did you think?

1438
01:38:01,834 --> 01:38:05,629
My friend who lent it to me
thought it was kind of pretentious...

1439
01:38:05,797 --> 01:38:08,048
...but I really like it so far.

1440

I don't know.

1442
01:38:21,312 --> 01:38:23,814
You seem really familiar.

1443
01:38:25,483 --> 01:38:28,026
Maybe we knew each other
in another life.

1444
01:38:28,194 --> 01:38:31,238
Or maybe we just go
to the same coffee shop.

I'm a writer.

What do you write?

1449
01:38:46,588 --> 01:38:49,464
So that's why you
look so familiar.

1450

Maybe.

1451
01:38:51,718 --> 01:38:54,303

my friend calling it pretentious.
