1
00:03:40,958 --> 00:03:43,024
<i>I'll be asked
to make this personal.</i>

2
00:03:46,524 --> 00:03:48,057
<i>So I shall.</i>

3
00:03:54,122 --> 00:03:55,650
<i>You are
always looking at her.</i>

4
00:03:58,153 --> 00:03:59,683
<i>You look at her too much.</i>

5
00:04:02,517 --> 00:04:04,222
<i>Something terrible
may happen.</i>

6
00:04:27,524 --> 00:04:29,288
Hi, I'm Clea.

7
00:04:29,289 --> 00:04:32,918
I work in the props department
here at the opera company.

8
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,620
I'm going to be showing you
how I make the head

9
00:04:36,621 --> 00:04:38,287
of John the Baptist,

10
00:04:38,288 --> 00:04:41,449
uh, who, for those of you
who might not know the story,

11
00:04:41,450 --> 00:04:44,753
he is the biblical prophet
that gets beheaded

12
00:04:44,754 --> 00:04:46,919
by a woman called Salome.

13
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:48,489
<i>Woman 1: We welcome back</i>

14
00:04:48,490 --> 00:04:50,818
the wonderful Ambur Dione.

15
00:04:54,551 --> 00:04:56,848
So great to have you
back home, Ambur.

16
00:04:58,493 --> 00:04:59,985
And welcome to our company

17
00:04:59,986 --> 00:05:02,553
for his first appearance
with us,

18
00:05:02,554 --> 00:05:04,156
Johan Mueller.

19
00:05:05,153 --> 00:05:06,656
We're very excited to have

20
00:05:06,657 --> 00:05:08,447
these two
amazing singers with us

21
00:05:08,448 --> 00:05:10,986
and both are fresh
from a very,

22
00:05:10,987 --> 00:05:12,824
shall we say,

23
00:05:12,825 --> 00:05:16,048
controversial production
of Salome in Stuttgart.

24
00:05:22,290 --> 00:05:25,557
Sometime before my husband
passed away last year

25
00:05:25,558 --> 00:05:27,485
he made a very
specific request.

26
00:05:28,452 --> 00:05:31,151
Charles wanted
one of his former students

27
00:05:31,152 --> 00:05:34,255
to direct this remount
of Salome.

28
00:05:35,356 --> 00:05:38,953
I know that Charles worked
very closely with Jeanine

29
00:05:38,954 --> 00:05:41,057
on the original production
and so

30
00:05:42,659 --> 00:05:44,225
I'll let Jeanine
let us know

31
00:05:44,793 --> 00:05:47,481
what she plans to do
in the weeks ahead.

32
00:05:47,482 --> 00:05:49,587
Jeanine, would you
like to come forward

33
00:05:49,588 --> 00:05:51,189
and say a few words?

34
00:05:55,355 --> 00:05:58,718
Working on this production
so many years ago

35
00:05:58,719 --> 00:06:00,321
changed my life.

36
00:06:02,053 --> 00:06:03,584
It was a huge gift.

37
00:06:04,785 --> 00:06:08,189
Just like being invited
to stage this remount is a...

38
00:06:10,392 --> 00:06:11,925
another...

39
00:06:12,556 --> 00:06:14,090
huge gift.

40
00:06:15,626 --> 00:06:18,485
Charles meant the world to me.

41
00:06:20,321 --> 00:06:22,588
Charles meant a lot
to many people.

42
00:06:24,149 --> 00:06:25,749
This morning, I-I...

43
00:06:27,184 --> 00:06:28,714
I took a moment

44
00:06:28,715 --> 00:06:31,925
to find his-his favourite spot
in the theatre,

45
00:06:33,220 --> 00:06:35,552
which is
this rehearsal bridge

46
00:06:36,354 --> 00:06:38,613
that connects the stage
to the audience

47
00:06:38,614 --> 00:06:40,551
just above the orchestra.
It's this--

48
00:06:42,286 --> 00:06:44,090
It's between
these two spaces.

49
00:06:46,221 --> 00:06:47,780
And he lo--
he loved being there.

50
00:06:47,781 --> 00:06:51,024
He... he loved being
in the heart of the action.

51
00:06:52,559 --> 00:06:54,551
And, now, we are here to...

52
00:06:57,119 --> 00:06:58,650
to honour his heart

53
00:06:59,986 --> 00:07:01,518
and his spirit

54
00:07:02,516 --> 00:07:04,485
in the best way
that we can.

55
00:07:08,559 --> 00:07:10,251
So, I will leave you with

56
00:07:10,252 --> 00:07:13,317
with the costume designs
and some images

57
00:07:13,318 --> 00:07:16,650
from the original show
and the maquette.

58
00:07:19,023 --> 00:07:21,156
The changes
that I will be making

59
00:07:22,290 --> 00:07:24,991
for this production
will be small but meaningful.

60
00:07:25,825 --> 00:07:27,489
And if anybody
has any questions

61
00:07:27,490 --> 00:07:29,090
I'd be happy to answer.

62
00:07:30,018 --> 00:07:31,551
Thank you.

63
00:07:35,356 --> 00:07:38,613
- That was a crazy production
- Yeah.

64
00:07:38,614 --> 00:07:40,589
Do you remember
all those long talks

65
00:07:40,590 --> 00:07:42,152
that we had
about the role?

66
00:07:42,153 --> 00:07:44,381
Ye-yeah,
I remember those talks.

67
00:07:44,382 --> 00:07:46,618
You had a huge impact on me.

68
00:07:46,619 --> 00:07:48,219
Really?

69
00:07:50,892 --> 00:07:53,086
And after that,
I-I-I went to study

70
00:07:53,087 --> 00:07:54,881
with this amazing teacher
in London,

71
00:07:54,882 --> 00:07:57,714
but they were really expensive
so I ran outta money really fast

72
00:07:57,715 --> 00:07:59,481
- ...and I came back.
- And you kept working.

73
00:07:59,482 --> 00:08:01,447
I've done
a lot of understudy roles.

74
00:08:01,448 --> 00:08:03,057
And I've done
some small things.

75
00:08:04,486 --> 00:08:07,156
- I'm here now.
- Covering John the Baptist.

76
00:08:08,318 --> 00:08:09,818
And I'm covering Salome.

77
00:08:09,819 --> 00:08:11,581
- Hi.
- Rachel.

78
00:08:11,582 --> 00:08:13,480
Rachel. Jeanine.
It's so nice to meet you.

79
00:08:13,481 --> 00:08:15,390
- You too.
- My two understudies.

80
00:08:15,391 --> 00:08:17,519
This'll be fun.

81
00:08:18,289 --> 00:08:20,748
So, here's the basic plot
of the opera:

82
00:08:20,749 --> 00:08:25,888
Salome wants John the Baptist
to pay attention to her.

83
00:08:25,889 --> 00:08:28,922
She's crazy about him,
but he refuses.

84
00:08:28,923 --> 00:08:31,052
He won't even look at her
because he thinks

85
00:08:31,053 --> 00:08:32,851
that Salome's mother
is a whore.

86
00:08:33,453 --> 00:08:36,955
So, then, Salome's stepfather,
King Herod,

87
00:08:36,956 --> 00:08:41,280
he asks her to do
this sexy dance for him

88
00:08:41,281 --> 00:08:43,822
and he offers Salome

89
00:08:43,823 --> 00:08:45,749
anything that she wants
in return.

90
00:08:46,350 --> 00:08:49,051
So, Salome asks for

91
00:08:49,052 --> 00:08:51,383
the head
of John the Baptist,

92
00:08:51,384 --> 00:08:53,081
which is what
I'm working on here.

93
00:08:53,549 --> 00:08:56,285
She demands that her stepfather

94
00:08:56,286 --> 00:09:00,152
chop off John's head
and offer it up to her

95
00:09:00,153 --> 00:09:03,156
so that she may finally
kiss his lips.

96
00:09:05,818 --> 00:09:09,215
I guess you can see
it's a pretty weird love story.

97
00:10:04,690 --> 00:10:06,923
Johan! Johan, Johan.

98
00:10:06,924 --> 00:10:10,518
It's important that you
never look at Salome.

99
00:10:11,817 --> 00:10:14,085
From the moment you take
your blindfold off your eyes

100
00:10:14,086 --> 00:10:15,815
you never turn
to look at her.

101
00:10:17,020 --> 00:10:18,889
That feels strange.

102
00:10:18,890 --> 00:10:22,251
Well, you're demanding
that-that she repent

103
00:10:22,252 --> 00:10:23,954
and, in order to
get her to do that,

104
00:10:23,955 --> 00:10:25,916
she needs
to feel frightened of you.

105
00:10:26,618 --> 00:10:29,152
You need to let her understand
that you know

106
00:10:29,153 --> 00:10:31,053
the terrible things
that she's done.

107
00:10:31,054 --> 00:10:34,247
The cries of her sinning
are heard by God.

108
00:10:34,248 --> 00:10:36,551
You say that, right?

109
00:10:37,517 --> 00:10:40,386
You need her
to beg for forgiveness

110
00:10:40,387 --> 00:10:42,955
and you're not prepared
to look at her until she does.

111
00:10:42,956 --> 00:10:46,983
But isn't it
her mother's cries and sinning

112
00:10:46,984 --> 00:10:48,584
I'm talking about?

113
00:10:49,053 --> 00:10:50,583
I think she's a whore.

114
00:10:50,584 --> 00:10:52,655
They're one and the same
as far as you're concerned.

115
00:10:52,656 --> 00:10:54,419
Like mother, like daughter.

116
00:10:57,383 --> 00:10:59,115
Okay, let's continue.

117
00:11:28,252 --> 00:11:29,916
You have to
blow them out, Granny.

118
00:11:29,917 --> 00:11:31,521
Where's Daddy?

119
00:11:32,290 --> 00:11:34,485
Daddy, come. Granny wants
to blow out her candles.

120
00:11:36,925 --> 00:11:38,884
Woman 2: Where'd you find
those candles, Lizzie?

121
00:11:38,885 --> 00:11:40,888
Daddy bought it.

122
00:11:40,889 --> 00:11:42,888
They're a little big,
aren't they?

123
00:11:42,889 --> 00:11:44,448
We were gonna use sparklers, remember?

124
00:11:44,449 --> 00:11:46,053
Let's take this back
and put them on.

125
00:11:46,054 --> 00:11:47,851
Shouldn't she
blow this out first?

126
00:11:48,686 --> 00:11:50,782
Then what's the point
of the sparklers?

127
00:11:50,783 --> 00:11:53,557
We need to sing Happy Birthday
as we bring in the cake. Okay?

128
00:11:53,558 --> 00:11:55,189
Can't she just
blow these out?

129
00:11:59,055 --> 00:12:00,954
Okay, now, help me put
sparklers on the cake

130
00:12:00,955 --> 00:12:03,024
and we can do this properly.
Okay?

131
00:12:04,484 --> 00:12:06,421
- Come on.
- It's okay, honey.

132
00:12:06,422 --> 00:12:07,981
Woman 2: Yeah.

133
00:12:07,982 --> 00:12:09,584
Sparklers.

134
00:12:13,659 --> 00:12:15,750
- That was weird.
- You think?

135
00:12:16,386 --> 00:12:17,925
How's the
place you're staying?

136
00:12:18,887 --> 00:12:20,417
It's nice.

137
00:12:20,418 --> 00:12:22,618
- Some rich opera patron?
- Yeah, they're away.

138
00:12:22,619 --> 00:12:25,189
- Weren't you gonna arrange--
- What were you doing upstairs?

139
00:12:28,685 --> 00:12:31,057
I was showing Dimitra
your old CD collection.

140
00:12:31,823 --> 00:12:34,090
- Why?
- Where's Harold?

141
00:12:37,221 --> 00:12:39,156
Harold died
last year, Margot.

142
00:12:41,189 --> 00:12:43,588
Woman 2: Get ready.
Three, two, one.

143
00:12:43,589 --> 00:12:48,387
♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

144
00:12:49,054 --> 00:12:53,650
♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

145
00:12:54,353 --> 00:12:59,719
♪ Happy birthday,
dear Margot... ♪

146
00:13:01,285 --> 00:13:03,120
I really appreciate
you coming here

147
00:13:03,121 --> 00:13:05,152
and doing this.
I know how busy things are.

148
00:13:05,153 --> 00:13:07,156
No problem.

149
00:13:08,187 --> 00:13:09,716
So, this is the props room.

150
00:13:11,618 --> 00:13:13,718
This is, like,
one of my favourite places.

151
00:13:14,387 --> 00:13:16,582
You can see pretty much
all the props

152
00:13:16,583 --> 00:13:18,716
from every show
the opera company's ever done.

153
00:13:19,689 --> 00:13:21,451
It's crazy.

154
00:13:21,452 --> 00:13:24,549
And, uh, yeah, we've got
a bit of a collection going

155
00:13:24,550 --> 00:13:26,948
of severed heads here
from other productions.

156
00:13:26,949 --> 00:13:28,551
Cute.

157
00:13:31,157 --> 00:13:33,222
So, uh, like I said,
the company's asked me

158
00:13:33,223 --> 00:13:36,949
to do this thing about the head
kind of to market the show.

159
00:13:36,950 --> 00:13:38,553
I get it.

160
00:13:38,554 --> 00:13:40,155
And, uh, yeah,

161
00:13:40,156 --> 00:13:43,748
I thought it might be cool
to get a few words from you

162
00:13:43,749 --> 00:13:48,387
about what this prop means now
after so many years.

163
00:13:48,985 --> 00:13:50,488
Okay.

164
00:13:50,489 --> 00:13:52,090
Okay.

165
00:13:54,784 --> 00:13:58,653
So, uh, tell me about
working on this production

166
00:13:58,654 --> 00:14:00,255
all those years ago.

167
00:14:01,616 --> 00:14:03,419
Well, I was
more of an observer.

168
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:05,716
Like a, like an intern.

169
00:14:07,288 --> 00:14:10,956
Like an observer...
to the director.

170
00:14:10,957 --> 00:14:13,321
Yeah, I mean, we had
a lot of conversations.

171
00:14:14,819 --> 00:14:18,551
Uh, but I was still very much
Charles' student back then.

172
00:14:20,355 --> 00:14:23,383
I gather that he was
a pretty big presence.

173
00:14:23,384 --> 00:14:27,092
Yes, he was a
very big presence.

174
00:14:27,693 --> 00:14:29,586
Yes, Charles was
a very big presence.

175
00:14:30,155 --> 00:14:31,683
What can you tell me
about him?

176
00:14:42,453 --> 00:14:45,082
Uh, why do you think
Salome asks for the head

177
00:14:45,083 --> 00:14:46,657
of John the Baptist?

178
00:14:46,658 --> 00:14:48,324
Well, she says it
in the opera.

179
00:14:48,325 --> 00:14:50,119
She just wanted to--

180
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:52,518
to kiss his lips
and he wouldn't let her.

181
00:14:53,551 --> 00:14:55,115
Do you think
that's a little extreme?

182
00:14:55,116 --> 00:14:56,848
Yes, it's extreme.

183
00:14:57,825 --> 00:15:00,582
But I guess
you need to see it as

184
00:15:00,583 --> 00:15:03,456
the first recorded sex crime
in biblical history.

185
00:15:28,658 --> 00:15:31,989
So, Ambur, at this moment

186
00:15:31,990 --> 00:15:36,189
this is when you can just
collapse onto the swing.

187
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,250
Just two hands, slowly,
gently just collapsing

188
00:15:40,251 --> 00:15:43,650
because his voice
is like a drug.

189
00:15:44,626 --> 00:15:47,024
His voice
makes you feel safe.

190
00:15:48,625 --> 00:15:51,451
Yeah. Good.
And, Johan,

191
00:15:51,452 --> 00:15:53,788
can you check the monitor
next to the camera, please?

192
00:15:53,789 --> 00:15:57,451
Uh...
why is this my issue?

193
00:15:57,452 --> 00:16:00,091
Well, you have to
position yourself back there,

194
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,417
and we need to see your mouth
in the centre of the frame.

195
00:16:04,418 --> 00:16:06,580
And when you're singing,
you kind of, we lose you.

196
00:16:06,581 --> 00:16:08,848
But can't the camera
move with me?

197
00:16:09,987 --> 00:16:11,489
It's on a tripod.

198
00:16:11,490 --> 00:16:13,417
Is that my problem?

199
00:16:13,418 --> 00:16:16,790
Yeah, I'm-- I, uh,
I'm-I'm, I'm sorry, it is.

200
00:16:16,791 --> 00:16:20,790
No! My problem,
my job is to sing, right?

201
00:16:20,791 --> 00:16:24,748
You can amplify my voice
or project my lips

202
00:16:24,749 --> 00:16:28,423
but these technical issues
are your problem, not mine!

203
00:16:30,993 --> 00:16:33,051
He's an asshole.

204
00:16:33,653 --> 00:16:36,917
Did you hear about him
in that production in Stuttgart?

205
00:16:38,653 --> 00:16:40,255
It--

206
00:16:48,993 --> 00:16:51,622
<i>Hi, it's Paul.
Leave a message after the beep.</i>

207
00:16:53,319 --> 00:16:55,547
Does Paul
come to visit you often, Mom?

208
00:16:55,548 --> 00:16:58,156
Yes. It's nice.

209
00:17:00,722 --> 00:17:02,387
He likes Dimitra.

210
00:17:05,023 --> 00:17:07,090
- Are they up there now?
- Let's see.

211
00:17:08,017 --> 00:17:09,551
Dimitra?

212
00:17:11,819 --> 00:17:13,419
Dimitra?

213
00:17:22,990 --> 00:17:24,481
I thought you guys
were finished.

214
00:17:24,482 --> 00:17:26,925
Uh, no. I-I called,
I called back.

215
00:17:34,789 --> 00:17:36,286
Is my husband there?

216
00:17:36,287 --> 00:17:40,156
Uh, I don't think so.
Let me check upstairs.

217
00:17:41,622 --> 00:17:43,156
Okay.

218
00:17:50,683 --> 00:17:52,321
You think
they're fooling around?

219
00:17:57,860 --> 00:18:01,057
I am amorous of thy body,
John the Baptist.

220
00:18:01,789 --> 00:18:03,615
Thy body is white,

221
00:18:03,616 --> 00:18:06,754
like the snows that lie
on the mountains of Judea

222
00:18:06,755 --> 00:18:08,749
and come down into the valleys.

223
00:18:09,785 --> 00:18:13,653
There is nothing in the world
so white as thy body.

224
00:18:15,250 --> 00:18:19,222
Suffer me
to touch thy body.

225
00:18:21,559 --> 00:18:24,222
Back, daughter of Babylon.

226
00:18:24,990 --> 00:18:27,485
By woman
came evil into the world.

227
00:18:27,986 --> 00:18:29,518
Speak not to me.

228
00:18:30,450 --> 00:18:31,982
I will not
listen to thee.

229
00:18:32,717 --> 00:18:35,354
I listen but to the
voice of the Lord God.

230
00:18:37,958 --> 00:18:40,256
It's great to
get back to the text.

231
00:18:40,858 --> 00:18:42,389
The music makes
a big difference.

232
00:18:43,024 --> 00:18:46,321
But the words.
The words of Oscar Wilde.

233
00:18:50,991 --> 00:18:54,455
Thy body is white
like lilies in a valley.

234
00:18:54,456 --> 00:18:56,448
Thy body is white

235
00:18:56,449 --> 00:18:59,189
like snows
on the mountains of Judea.

236
00:19:01,154 --> 00:19:04,387
Suffer me
to touch thy body.

237
00:19:08,888 --> 00:19:10,419
It's so beautiful.

238
00:19:22,691 --> 00:19:24,222
Beautiful. Beautiful.

239
00:19:31,226 --> 00:19:34,787
Just let the peel fall away.
Just let it fall away like that.

240
00:19:34,788 --> 00:19:36,848
Perfect.
Okay, break it up.

241
00:19:38,023 --> 00:19:40,683
And, now,
I want you to taste one.

242
00:19:42,286 --> 00:19:43,780
I want you to really taste it.

243
00:19:43,781 --> 00:19:47,053
Feel how heightened it is
with your eyesight gone.

244
00:19:47,054 --> 00:19:50,156
Feel how, how powerful
the flavour is.

245
00:19:51,624 --> 00:19:53,448
<i>Take away one sense,</i>

246
00:19:53,449 --> 00:19:55,413
<i>all the others
become heightened.</i>

247
00:19:55,414 --> 00:19:58,090
<i>More real.
More intense.</i>

248
00:19:59,283 --> 00:20:00,790
<i>Remember that.</i>

249
00:20:00,791 --> 00:20:03,081
<i>That's your responsibility
as an artist.</i>

250
00:20:42,993 --> 00:20:45,921
Salome is overwhelmed
by her wakening desire.

251
00:20:45,922 --> 00:20:47,988
But what is she
being wakened from?

252
00:20:47,989 --> 00:20:50,852
What's at the root
of her crazed enchantment?

253
00:20:51,521 --> 00:20:55,124
Crazed enchantment.
That's my new favourite line.

254
00:20:55,125 --> 00:20:56,717
What?

255
00:20:57,485 --> 00:21:00,389
Thanks. What do you think
it means, Lizzie?

256
00:21:01,291 --> 00:21:04,753
I don't know. I don't know
where you came up with that.

257
00:21:04,754 --> 00:21:06,318
- You don't?
- No.

258
00:21:06,319 --> 00:21:08,985
- When do you find out.
- In a day or two.

259
00:21:08,986 --> 00:21:10,715
I mean, it's a small thing.

260
00:21:10,716 --> 00:21:13,249
It's not a small thing, Mom.
You're directing a show.

261
00:21:13,250 --> 00:21:14,818
Yeah, I'm remounting it, baby.

262
00:21:17,717 --> 00:21:20,418
Hello? Yeah, did you hear
what she said?

263
00:21:20,419 --> 00:21:22,651
It'd be great if they,
if they publish it.

264
00:21:22,652 --> 00:21:25,615
- Did you read the new draft?
- Not, no, not the whole thing.

265
00:21:25,616 --> 00:21:27,721
But I loved that line
about crazed enchantment.

266
00:21:30,221 --> 00:21:32,448
That's the part
I just rewrote.

267
00:21:32,449 --> 00:21:34,056
That's the one
I just read to you.

268
00:21:34,057 --> 00:21:36,220
Yeah. No. No, no. Like, no.
The line from the play.

269
00:21:36,221 --> 00:21:38,249
The one, um...

270
00:21:38,884 --> 00:21:42,222
that Salome's father says
how he-he loves her too much.

271
00:21:44,487 --> 00:21:46,354
<i>Jeanine
You're always looking at her.</i>

272
00:21:48,318 --> 00:21:50,121
<i>You look at her too much.</i>

273
00:21:50,122 --> 00:21:52,548
Well, that's not my essay.
I didn't write that.

274
00:21:52,549 --> 00:21:54,715
Yeah, but...
Yeah, but it's in the play.

275
00:21:54,716 --> 00:21:57,613
I mean, you want me to read--
I read the whole thing.

276
00:21:57,614 --> 00:22:00,955
- It's in Oscar Wilde's play.
- Yeah.

277
00:22:00,956 --> 00:22:02,653
<i>It is dangerous
to look at people</i>

278
00:22:02,654 --> 00:22:04,255
<i>in such a fashion.</i>

279
00:22:05,154 --> 00:22:07,224
<i>Something terrible may happen.</i>

280
00:22:07,225 --> 00:22:08,914
Have you...

281
00:22:08,915 --> 00:22:11,749
mentioned anything to Lizzie
about this being a separation?

282
00:22:13,552 --> 00:22:15,224
<i>No, I guess I'm just scared.</i>

283
00:22:15,225 --> 00:22:16,780
I, I just...

284
00:22:16,781 --> 00:22:18,955
I told her that it's--
it's different this time.

285
00:22:18,956 --> 00:22:20,984
- Different in what way?
- Just you going off

286
00:22:20,985 --> 00:22:22,584
to do the show, and...

287
00:22:24,287 --> 00:22:26,051
How we're just gonna
see how it feels

288
00:22:26,052 --> 00:22:27,717
to be apart
for this long.

289
00:22:27,718 --> 00:22:29,453
It--

290
00:22:29,454 --> 00:22:32,089
Don't you think that's a talk
that we should've had together?

291
00:22:32,090 --> 00:22:34,821
- We've had that conversation
- No, the three of us?

292
00:22:34,822 --> 00:22:37,090
<i>Yeah.
I'll see you tomorrow.</i>

293
00:22:38,783 --> 00:22:40,456
I think you need to
insist on this, Jeanine.

294
00:22:40,457 --> 00:22:42,581
The-they they have to

295
00:22:42,582 --> 00:22:44,815
put your director's notes
in the program.

296
00:22:45,859 --> 00:22:47,381
I mean, so many ideas
from the show

297
00:22:47,382 --> 00:22:50,413
were inspired by you.
Right?

298
00:22:50,414 --> 00:22:53,189
Crazed enchantment.
All that.

299
00:23:16,889 --> 00:23:18,317
Let's pause real quick.

300
00:23:18,318 --> 00:23:21,484
So, as Salome
is going on in detail

301
00:23:21,485 --> 00:23:24,613
about how she wants to touch
John the Baptist's body

302
00:23:24,614 --> 00:23:27,288
and, and his hair and his lips,
there is

303
00:23:27,289 --> 00:23:29,956
an entirely separate dynamic
that's happening right here.

304
00:23:29,957 --> 00:23:34,423
Uh, could you sing
the second line about how--

305
00:23:34,424 --> 00:23:36,322
how beautiful Salome is?

306
00:23:36,890 --> 00:23:39,255
- Yep.
- At rehearsal six.

307
00:23:56,455 --> 00:23:59,414
Thank you. It's all this pain
and-and-and yearning.

308
00:23:59,415 --> 00:24:02,024
It's what--
It's what leads you

309
00:24:02,788 --> 00:24:04,321
to eventually...

310
00:24:05,693 --> 00:24:07,985
- ...kill yourself, right?
- Yep.

311
00:24:07,986 --> 00:24:09,589
Because you can't have her.

312
00:24:10,292 --> 00:24:13,746
Those are the same exact ways
she can't have John the Baptist.

313
00:24:13,747 --> 00:24:16,757
And you have this secret crush
on Narraboth.

314
00:24:16,758 --> 00:24:19,085
And he pays no attention to you.
He doesn't--

315
00:24:19,086 --> 00:24:21,283
You, you don't exist.
It's...

316
00:24:21,284 --> 00:24:23,423
It's her,
and-and-and to hear...

317
00:24:23,958 --> 00:24:27,189
For somebody to hear
a sound like that...

318
00:24:27,791 --> 00:24:29,654
Can you sing it again, please?

319
00:24:37,850 --> 00:24:41,351
To hear a sound like that and,
and know that he...

320
00:24:41,819 --> 00:24:46,316
he's capable of this passion,
but it's not directed at you.

321
00:24:46,317 --> 00:24:48,050
It's not for you,
it's for her.

322
00:24:48,051 --> 00:24:49,652
- Mm-hm.
- It's maddening.

323
00:24:50,288 --> 00:24:52,584
It's just this
crazy mess of-of-of...

324
00:24:54,693 --> 00:24:56,925
This crazy mess of feeling.
Right?

325
00:24:58,024 --> 00:24:59,923
And so as--
while Salome is singing

326
00:24:59,924 --> 00:25:02,722
about how wonderful it would be
to, to, to touch

327
00:25:02,723 --> 00:25:04,925
just touch
John the Baptist's hair,

328
00:25:05,692 --> 00:25:07,751
it-it ignites something in you.

329
00:25:08,486 --> 00:25:11,255
It inspires you
to touch Narraboth's hair.

330
00:25:13,817 --> 00:25:16,925
Okay. Okay, let's, uh,
let's go back to one-oh-one.

331
00:25:56,017 --> 00:25:58,221
We really like the piece.
We just don't think it serves

332
00:25:58,222 --> 00:26:00,820
the purpose, the function
of a director's statement.

333
00:26:00,821 --> 00:26:02,720
The function? I'm sorry...

334
00:26:03,356 --> 00:26:05,582
So, you're gonna use
Charles's notes from before?

335
00:26:05,583 --> 00:26:08,715
- Yeah, it's still pertinent.
- Okay, seriously?

336
00:26:08,716 --> 00:26:11,150
Nancy, Charles, don't you think
he would want me to have

337
00:26:11,151 --> 00:26:12,955
my director's notes published?

338
00:26:12,956 --> 00:26:15,749
He's the one who invited me
to remount this.

339
00:26:17,219 --> 00:26:19,152
It's Beatrice's decision.

340
00:26:19,153 --> 00:26:21,024
Oh, so, it's what
his wife wants.

341
00:26:22,224 --> 00:26:26,581
So, as part of her final wishes
for her husband.

342
00:26:26,582 --> 00:26:28,482
Yes, like I said,
what Beatrice wants.

343
00:26:28,483 --> 00:26:30,254
Look, even though
we're not gonna publish

344
00:26:30,255 --> 00:26:32,789
in the programme officially
as a director's statement

345
00:26:32,790 --> 00:26:34,416
I thought it might
have other outlets.

346
00:26:34,417 --> 00:26:37,088
- Like what?
- Like sharing in interviews.

347
00:26:37,089 --> 00:26:41,718
I've already had a request.
This, um, podcast...

348
00:26:41,719 --> 00:26:43,485
Okay, sure.

349
00:26:43,486 --> 00:26:46,418
I also had this idea that you
might wanna create a journal

350
00:26:46,419 --> 00:26:48,648
that we could post on the site
like a, like a diary

351
00:26:48,649 --> 00:26:50,418
of what it means to you
to be working on this

352
00:26:50,419 --> 00:26:52,580
so many years later.
You can shoot it on your phone.

353
00:26:52,581 --> 00:26:55,120
We can help you edit it.
You can even...

354
00:26:55,121 --> 00:26:57,782
make it more personal
if that's what you want.

355
00:26:57,783 --> 00:27:00,322
- More personal than what?
- Than what you've written here.

356
00:27:00,890 --> 00:27:02,652
You think this is personal?

357
00:27:02,653 --> 00:27:04,354
Isn't it?

358
00:27:08,722 --> 00:27:10,387
One more thing.

359
00:27:10,388 --> 00:27:12,581
We were a little concerned about
what you said the other day

360
00:27:12,582 --> 00:27:15,150
at the presentation,
wanting to make changes

361
00:27:15,151 --> 00:27:16,754
to the original production.

362
00:27:16,755 --> 00:27:18,489
As I said, small changes.

363
00:27:18,490 --> 00:27:21,455
Small, but meaningful.

364
00:27:21,456 --> 00:27:23,518
That's right.

365
00:27:35,893 --> 00:27:38,024
<i>I've been asked
to make this personal.</i>

366
00:27:39,052 --> 00:27:40,583
<i>So I will.</i>

367
00:27:40,584 --> 00:27:43,820
That's the whole point.
That he never looks at me.

368
00:27:43,821 --> 00:27:45,449
<i>This is for you, Charles.</i>

369
00:27:45,450 --> 00:27:47,885
<i>That's what Salome
is begging him to do</i>

370
00:27:47,886 --> 00:27:49,448
but he never sees me.

371
00:27:49,449 --> 00:27:51,122
<i>The person
who wanted me here.</i>

372
00:27:51,123 --> 00:27:53,254
Right, 'cause if he did,
then he would love her.

373
00:27:53,255 --> 00:27:55,488
Exactly. But do you ever
get the sense that he would?

374
00:27:55,489 --> 00:27:57,381
<i>Now I'm back.</i>

375
00:27:58,983 --> 00:28:00,584
<i>Without you.</i>

376
00:28:01,490 --> 00:28:03,387
<i>Alone.</i>

377
00:28:03,388 --> 00:28:06,714
<i>Alone to watch the understudies
for Salome and John the Baptist</i>

378
00:28:06,715 --> 00:28:09,024
<i>discuss roles
they may never get to play.</i>

379
00:28:11,485 --> 00:28:13,581
<i>Alone to watch
an empty orchestra pit</i>

380
00:28:13,582 --> 00:28:15,584
<i>from your favourite place
in the house.</i>

381
00:28:16,551 --> 00:28:18,683
<i>A bridge between
two different worlds.</i>

382
00:28:24,716 --> 00:28:26,955
<i>Alone to watch someone
try out a swing</i>

383
00:28:26,956 --> 00:28:29,222
<i>that came from somewhere
in my childhood.</i>

384
00:28:37,390 --> 00:28:40,383
<i>Later that night I watch a clip
from the production</i>

385
00:28:40,384 --> 00:28:42,683
<i>you directed
so many years ago.</i>

386
00:28:43,549 --> 00:28:45,086
<i>How perfectly her white dress</i>

387
00:28:45,087 --> 00:28:47,150
<i>flowed into
the unfurling screen.</i>

388
00:28:47,685 --> 00:28:50,387
<i>Like they were both one piece
of magical fabric.</i>

389
00:28:53,354 --> 00:28:55,615
<i>How perfectly
the shadow of my father</i>

390
00:28:55,616 --> 00:28:58,586
<i>was discovered
on the projected home movie</i>

391
00:28:58,587 --> 00:29:00,189
<i>of the girl.</i>

392
00:29:09,454 --> 00:29:12,057
<i>You asked me about
so many details, Charles.</i>

393
00:29:12,990 --> 00:29:14,547
<i>And I willingly
provided them</i>

394
00:29:14,548 --> 00:29:17,156
<i>because you made me feel
so loved.</i>

395
00:29:20,356 --> 00:29:22,925
<i>A girl walking blindfolded
through the forest.</i>

396
00:29:24,991 --> 00:29:26,584
<i>And in the shadow
of her father,</i>

397
00:29:27,491 --> 00:29:29,017
<i>my father,</i>

398
00:29:29,652 --> 00:29:32,815
<i>who you directed
with such meticulous detail</i>

399
00:29:33,690 --> 00:29:35,222
<i>to reach for her.</i>

400
00:29:39,516 --> 00:29:41,057
<i>Keep following that.</i>

401
00:29:43,581 --> 00:29:45,717
There's a bog coming up
in a little bit.

402
00:29:46,485 --> 00:29:48,723
When I say big step,
you take a big step.

403
00:29:48,724 --> 00:29:51,321
No hesitation.
Keep coming. Big step.

404
00:29:51,955 --> 00:29:53,715
Big step.
There you go.

405
00:29:53,716 --> 00:29:55,781
<i>The moon
has a strange look tonight.</i>

406
00:29:55,782 --> 00:29:57,815
<i>The moon
has a strange look tonight.</i>

407
00:29:58,493 --> 00:29:59,989
<i>She is like a madwoman.</i>

408
00:29:59,990 --> 00:30:02,718
<i>- She's like a madwoman.
- Seeking everywhere.</i>

409
00:30:02,719 --> 00:30:04,383
<i>Seeking.</i>

410
00:30:04,384 --> 00:30:06,356
<i>My father's words to me,
Charles.</i>

411
00:30:07,024 --> 00:30:09,485
<i>From the play
that haunted you both.</i>

412
00:30:10,719 --> 00:30:14,285
At first I wanted to try
making the head as a sculpture

413
00:30:14,286 --> 00:30:16,288
as opposed to the more
traditional method

414
00:30:16,289 --> 00:30:19,987
which would just be to make
a cast of the singer's head.

415
00:30:19,988 --> 00:30:22,088
I studied sculpture
in art school

416
00:30:22,089 --> 00:30:26,884
and I really enjoy
this kind of slower method.

417
00:30:26,885 --> 00:30:29,222
Uh, so to start...

418
00:30:32,525 --> 00:30:34,053
I asked Johan to send me

419
00:30:34,054 --> 00:30:35,814
a few photos from Germany
of his face

420
00:30:35,815 --> 00:30:39,480
just to gimme an idea
of the shape of his features.

421
00:30:39,481 --> 00:30:42,456
And I got this started
and, um...

422
00:30:42,457 --> 00:30:44,156
I think it's pretty good.

423
00:30:44,157 --> 00:30:47,418
So, the next step will be to
have Johan come into the studio

424
00:30:47,419 --> 00:30:51,189
and I'll work on getting
the finer details of his face.

425
00:30:53,754 --> 00:30:55,888
This is really strange.

426
00:30:55,889 --> 00:30:58,716
You know, usually,
they make a cast.

427
00:30:59,689 --> 00:31:01,221
Yeah, I know.

428
00:31:01,222 --> 00:31:03,585
Uh, but the guy who'd normally
be doing that, my boss,

429
00:31:03,586 --> 00:31:05,189
he's sick.

430
00:31:06,158 --> 00:31:08,486
But I find that this is
less invasive for you.

431
00:31:09,322 --> 00:31:10,955
Sometimes singers get
a little freaked out

432
00:31:10,956 --> 00:31:12,580
when there's all this stuff
on their head.

433
00:31:12,581 --> 00:31:15,951
Hm. So, you are going
old school.

434
00:31:17,551 --> 00:31:20,552
I mean, I can make a cast.
I know how to, but...

435
00:31:21,354 --> 00:31:23,585
Definitely,
this sculpture should work.

436
00:31:24,354 --> 00:31:25,947
And, uh, these pictures
that you sent me,

437
00:31:25,948 --> 00:31:28,784
these were really helpful.
Kind of gave me a head start.

438
00:31:31,351 --> 00:31:33,420
A head start on my head.

439
00:31:36,227 --> 00:31:37,749
Exactly.

440
00:31:40,516 --> 00:31:43,420
You're so serious suddenly.

441
00:31:44,056 --> 00:31:47,584
What has Ambur told you
about me?

442
00:31:49,356 --> 00:31:51,580
Why do you think she'd
tell me anything about you?

443
00:31:51,581 --> 00:31:54,387
Mm, I've heard
you two know each other.

444
00:31:56,684 --> 00:31:59,749
Yeah, we were,
we were friends a while ago.

445
00:32:00,392 --> 00:32:01,985
Here?

446
00:32:01,986 --> 00:32:04,885
Yep.
Before she went off.

447
00:32:09,691 --> 00:32:11,652
"And conquered the world."

448
00:32:11,653 --> 00:32:13,580
Yeah, right.

449
00:32:13,581 --> 00:32:15,646
Yeah, that's Ambur.
Conquer the world.

450
00:32:15,647 --> 00:32:19,290
I think she has
a pretty high opinion

451
00:32:19,291 --> 00:32:21,749
of herself, yes?

452
00:32:21,750 --> 00:32:25,223
Well, she's super-confident.
Yeah, she always has been.

453
00:32:25,224 --> 00:32:26,815
Hm.

454
00:32:28,156 --> 00:32:29,918
She did tell me
about the last production

455
00:32:29,919 --> 00:32:31,487
that you did in Europe.

456
00:32:31,488 --> 00:32:33,251
Stuttgart, hm?

457
00:32:33,252 --> 00:32:34,984
Sounds like it was
pretty intense.

458
00:32:34,985 --> 00:32:37,848
Did she go into details?

459
00:32:40,124 --> 00:32:43,391
Just that it was a
different interpretation.

460
00:32:43,392 --> 00:32:46,048
It was very physical.

461
00:32:46,049 --> 00:32:48,780
Very naked.

462
00:32:48,781 --> 00:32:53,088
She probably told you
that I crossed some lines.

463
00:32:53,089 --> 00:32:56,756
- Well, she, she--
- I know that's what she thinks,

464
00:32:56,757 --> 00:32:59,323
but I was just
following direction.

465
00:32:59,324 --> 00:33:00,925
Doing my job.

466
00:33:08,555 --> 00:33:10,090
Oh.

467
00:33:10,822 --> 00:33:12,314
Oh, I love this part.

468
00:33:13,922 --> 00:33:15,815
- Hm.
- When I first heard this--

469
00:33:31,918 --> 00:33:33,481
- Hi.
- Hey.

470
00:33:33,482 --> 00:33:35,319
- Jeanine.
- Charlie. Nice to meet you.

471
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,282
- Nice to meet you.
- I'll leave you two alone.

472
00:33:37,283 --> 00:33:39,084
- Thanks, Nancy.
- Thank you.

473
00:33:39,085 --> 00:33:40,649
Thank you for doing this.

474
00:33:40,650 --> 00:33:42,781
I've really been looking forward
to speaking with you.

475
00:33:42,782 --> 00:33:45,422
Well, I hear very good things
about your podcast.

476
00:33:45,423 --> 00:33:47,086
Oh, yeah, yeah.

477
00:33:47,087 --> 00:33:49,085
Singers like to post
their interviews,

478
00:33:49,086 --> 00:33:50,987
helps the fans
get to know them.

479
00:33:50,988 --> 00:33:53,657
- Sure, sure.
- To be honest, I, uh...

480
00:33:53,658 --> 00:33:55,449
don't usually
speak with directors.

481
00:33:55,450 --> 00:33:59,082
Oh, well,
that's understandable. Right?

482
00:33:59,083 --> 00:34:01,284
Right.

483
00:34:01,285 --> 00:34:03,282
Can I first grab you
a cup of tea?

484
00:34:03,283 --> 00:34:05,818
Oh, uh...
No, thank you.

485
00:34:05,819 --> 00:34:07,419
I'm okay. I'm good.

486
00:34:07,953 --> 00:34:09,751
Glass of water?

487
00:34:09,752 --> 00:34:11,354
Yes. Sure.

488
00:34:14,990 --> 00:34:16,822
- Nice setup.
- Thanks, yeah.

489
00:34:17,358 --> 00:34:20,384
I'll just be a jiff. It might
be a little dirty, actually.

490
00:34:20,385 --> 00:34:22,983
Ah, thanks. You don't have
to-- Mm, okay.

491
00:34:27,856 --> 00:34:29,389
Yeah...

492
00:34:30,058 --> 00:34:31,749
You're a little bit
overdressed for this.

493
00:34:32,959 --> 00:34:35,580
I-I didn't know,
I didn't know what to expect

494
00:34:35,581 --> 00:34:37,284
or what you
needed from me, so...

495
00:34:37,285 --> 00:34:40,387
Oh, did you think
we'd have cameras?

496
00:34:41,288 --> 00:34:43,090
- I don't know.
- Hoping to get filmed?

497
00:34:47,551 --> 00:34:50,157
I asked for this interview
because, um...

498
00:34:51,059 --> 00:34:53,585
I'm a little bit obsessed
with this production.

499
00:34:54,188 --> 00:34:56,756
- Oh.
- I find it so interesting

500
00:34:56,757 --> 00:34:58,449
that you've come back
to remount it.

501
00:34:58,450 --> 00:35:01,087
I mean, you must have
been so young back then.

502
00:35:01,088 --> 00:35:04,551
Well, I'm-I'm
probably older than I look.

503
00:35:05,285 --> 00:35:07,189
Yeah.
Okay, but also...

504
00:35:08,017 --> 00:35:09,556
uh...

505
00:35:10,192 --> 00:35:13,418
you don't direct opera.
I mean, I looked you up, uh...

506
00:35:13,419 --> 00:35:15,884
you do regional theatre, right?
A lot of trade shows?

507
00:35:16,519 --> 00:35:18,522
Should we start?
I just don't wanna lose...

508
00:35:19,125 --> 00:35:22,384
any time with you
'cuz things are a little hectic.

509
00:35:22,385 --> 00:35:24,915
Oh, uh, we've already started.

510
00:35:24,916 --> 00:35:26,848
Oh.

511
00:35:27,854 --> 00:35:29,485
We're rolling.

512
00:35:31,054 --> 00:35:34,156
- Okay, great.
- Oh!

513
00:35:35,185 --> 00:35:38,518
Sorry. Almost forgot.

514
00:35:40,659 --> 00:35:43,251
I brought you...
some cookies.

515
00:35:45,693 --> 00:35:47,892
Just careful
not to chomp on 'em.

516
00:35:48,626 --> 00:35:51,117
Okay.
Thank you so much.

517
00:35:51,118 --> 00:35:53,024
No crunching while we roll.

518
00:35:54,690 --> 00:35:56,224
- Good?
- Yeah.

519
00:35:56,225 --> 00:35:57,886
All right.

520
00:35:58,389 --> 00:36:01,548
It sounds like this
totally insane production.

521
00:36:01,549 --> 00:36:05,281
So, John the Baptist
is all over Salome,

522
00:36:05,282 --> 00:36:07,219
like, the entire time.

523
00:36:07,220 --> 00:36:10,315
Like he's some kind of
sex-starved monster

524
00:36:10,316 --> 00:36:12,121
or cult leader
or something.

525
00:36:12,122 --> 00:36:14,220
And the words that are
coming out of his mouth

526
00:36:14,221 --> 00:36:16,422
have nothing to do
with the way he's behaving,

527
00:36:16,423 --> 00:36:18,449
which is, basically,

528
00:36:18,450 --> 00:36:21,123
groping her naked body
as she's going on and on

529
00:36:21,124 --> 00:36:26,053
about how beautiful his hair
and his skin and his lips are.

530
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:30,683
What?

531
00:36:35,658 --> 00:36:37,189
You didn't know that?

532
00:36:38,690 --> 00:36:40,318
About the production.

533
00:36:40,319 --> 00:36:43,215
No. No, 'cause it was
in Germany, right?

534
00:36:43,216 --> 00:36:44,888
- Mm.
- Stuttgart.

535
00:36:44,889 --> 00:36:46,657
So, had nothing to do
with our show.

536
00:36:46,658 --> 00:36:48,255
Yeah, but don't you
stay in touch?

537
00:36:49,153 --> 00:36:50,683
- With Ambur?
- Mm-hm.

538
00:36:51,525 --> 00:36:53,057
No, of course not.

539
00:36:56,590 --> 00:36:58,189
So, you don't follow her.

540
00:36:59,193 --> 00:37:00,717
No.

541
00:37:01,286 --> 00:37:03,419
We broke up
a long time ago.

542
00:37:06,058 --> 00:37:08,156
When she went off
and conquered the world.

543
00:37:11,683 --> 00:37:13,551
That is so weird
that you would say that.

544
00:37:15,321 --> 00:37:16,823
But that's the
exact same expression

545
00:37:16,824 --> 00:37:20,449
that Johann used
except he said it in German

546
00:37:20,450 --> 00:37:22,421
and then he had to
translate it back to me.

547
00:37:23,024 --> 00:37:26,683
and he pronounced it
concord the world

548
00:37:40,853 --> 00:37:42,387
Rachel...

549
00:37:50,053 --> 00:37:52,024
Ambur got very lucky.

550
00:37:56,825 --> 00:37:59,684
There is nothing,
like, nothing...

551
00:38:00,686 --> 00:38:03,892
that I would love more
than to see you on that stage.

552
00:38:07,524 --> 00:38:09,057
It'll happen.

553
00:38:09,524 --> 00:38:11,057
Just watch.

554
00:38:20,986 --> 00:38:22,481
That's tough.

555
00:38:22,482 --> 00:38:24,747
Covering a role
can be frustrating.

556
00:38:24,748 --> 00:38:27,119
And-and part of her
is grateful for the work.

557
00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:29,283
And, I mean,
now she knows the role.

558
00:38:29,284 --> 00:38:31,657
- It's in her repertoire.
- Right.

559
00:38:31,658 --> 00:38:33,655
And, who knows,
if Rachel's lucky,

560
00:38:33,656 --> 00:38:35,251
she might even get to sing it.

561
00:38:35,252 --> 00:38:36,989
Like, if something
happens to me.

562
00:38:36,990 --> 00:38:39,922
- Yeah, like, if I kill you.
-  Nice.

563
00:38:39,923 --> 00:38:42,083
I mean, it would be
her dream come true.

564
00:38:42,084 --> 00:38:44,150
That you murdered me?

565
00:38:44,151 --> 00:38:45,848
That she would get a chance.

566
00:38:46,892 --> 00:38:49,084
Well, I'm here
to do six performances,

567
00:38:49,085 --> 00:38:52,321
remain healthy...
and not die.

568
00:38:53,458 --> 00:38:55,057
Of course.

569
00:38:58,192 --> 00:39:00,954
You're not actually asking me
to give up a performance?

570
00:39:16,185 --> 00:39:17,716
Even if I wanted to...

571
00:39:19,386 --> 00:39:21,447
as a favour,
it's not so simple.

572
00:39:21,448 --> 00:39:23,048
I'd have to get
a doctor's note--

573
00:39:23,049 --> 00:39:24,614
Of course.

574
00:39:24,615 --> 00:39:27,024
And this is how
I make my living, Clea.

575
00:39:27,792 --> 00:39:30,156
I don't sing,
I don't get paid.

576
00:39:30,857 --> 00:39:32,390
The understudy would get my fee.

577
00:39:32,391 --> 00:39:33,991
Ambur, of course.

578
00:39:39,187 --> 00:39:40,720
Jeanine, you hate that house.

579
00:39:41,289 --> 00:39:42,956
And everything
that happened to you there,

580
00:39:42,957 --> 00:39:45,217
you cringe every time
you set foot in the place.

581
00:39:45,218 --> 00:39:46,815
But that's not
how Lizzie feels.

582
00:39:47,693 --> 00:39:49,220
We're not
talking about Lizzie.

583
00:39:49,221 --> 00:39:51,320
I know, we're talking about
your imagination.

584
00:39:51,321 --> 00:39:53,654
What happened in that house
was not my imagination.

585
00:39:53,655 --> 00:39:55,650
I know, I know. But...

586
00:39:55,651 --> 00:39:58,584
But what you think is happening
with me and Dimitra is.

587
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:02,683
So, you're not,
you're not sleeping with her?

588
00:40:07,351 --> 00:40:08,988
Not in the house, no.

589
00:40:08,989 --> 00:40:11,485
Oh, because,
'cause you have boundaries.

590
00:40:12,484 --> 00:40:14,781
We talked about this.
I-I...

591
00:40:14,782 --> 00:40:16,991
I mean, we're supposed to be
honest with one another.

592
00:40:16,992 --> 00:40:19,482
Yeah, okay, yeah, not sleep
with each other's friends.

593
00:40:19,483 --> 00:40:21,121
Well, she's not a friend.
She's a nurse.

594
00:40:21,122 --> 00:40:23,485
She's my mother's caregiver
and we pay her.

595
00:40:23,486 --> 00:40:26,156
I know, but this thing with me
and her can end at any time.

596
00:40:27,689 --> 00:40:29,291
And I love you.

597
00:40:29,292 --> 00:40:30,892
And you know that.

598
00:40:33,549 --> 00:40:35,090
We're supposed to be exploring.

599
00:40:37,958 --> 00:40:40,848
Isn't that what you're doing?
Exploring?

600
00:40:42,692 --> 00:40:44,216
We agreed on this.
Uh, uh...

601
00:40:44,718 --> 00:40:47,253
What you said before
about my mother's house

602
00:40:47,254 --> 00:40:51,420
and all the things that
he did to me... there...

603
00:40:51,421 --> 00:40:53,016
Do-- Uh...

604
00:40:53,685 --> 00:40:56,723
What does that have to do
with you and Dimitra?

605
00:40:56,724 --> 00:40:59,084
No, I wasn't
talking about Dimitra.

606
00:40:59,085 --> 00:41:00,647
I was talking about Lizzie.

607
00:41:00,648 --> 00:41:02,386
Okay, but we're talking
about Dimitra now.

608
00:41:02,387 --> 00:41:04,486
Well, she's the person
who takes care of your mother.

609
00:41:04,487 --> 00:41:06,090
Uh-huh?

610
00:41:13,019 --> 00:41:14,551
I told you...

611
00:41:16,354 --> 00:41:18,480
that this might not be
the best idea

612
00:41:18,481 --> 00:41:20,419
to-to-to be doing this
right now.

613
00:41:22,023 --> 00:41:24,120
You can't go back
into that world,

614
00:41:24,121 --> 00:41:27,086
the opera and your,
your history with Charles

615
00:41:27,087 --> 00:41:29,551
and expect it to
not have effect on you.

616
00:41:30,824 --> 00:41:32,358
And the stuff
with your mom

617
00:41:32,893 --> 00:41:36,753
and your dad dying like that
just last year.

618
00:41:38,589 --> 00:41:40,189
The stuff with my mom...

619
00:41:41,327 --> 00:41:42,848
Which part?

620
00:41:44,355 --> 00:41:46,082
<i>Do you
love your mother, Jeanine?</i>

621
00:41:46,083 --> 00:41:47,684
<i>Isn't she special?</i>

622
00:41:48,819 --> 00:41:52,189
<i>This is my love letter to you,
Margot, my beautiful wife,</i>

623
00:41:53,893 --> 00:41:56,883
who's given me
our beautiful angel daughter.

624
00:42:00,054 --> 00:42:02,290
So perfect, so intelligent.

625
00:42:02,291 --> 00:42:03,892
So talented.

626
00:42:08,889 --> 00:42:10,419
Hey, do we have a machete?

627
00:42:11,624 --> 00:42:13,556
Yeah. Uh, for what?

628
00:42:13,557 --> 00:42:15,024
For Salome's mother to use.

629
00:42:16,024 --> 00:42:17,925
- To do what?
- To cut off the head.

630
00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:22,917
Uh, okay, isn't the guard
going to do that with,

631
00:42:22,918 --> 00:42:24,648
um, with the axe?

632
00:42:24,649 --> 00:42:26,922
Right, well, I want him
to go first with the axe

633
00:42:26,923 --> 00:42:29,151
and then have her mother
follow with the machete.

634
00:42:29,152 --> 00:42:31,989
So, she beheads
John the Baptist.

635
00:42:31,990 --> 00:42:33,924
No, that's not clear.
We nev-- we never know.

636
00:42:33,925 --> 00:42:36,383
I just had this idea that
she's going to be presenting

637
00:42:36,384 --> 00:42:38,215
John the Baptist's head
to her daughter.

638
00:42:38,717 --> 00:42:40,883
Okay, and she'll do that
on the platter.

639
00:42:40,884 --> 00:42:43,090
Um... No.

640
00:42:44,183 --> 00:42:46,087
I think...

641
00:42:46,088 --> 00:42:49,314
Not-not on a platter.
I think in a bowl.

642
00:42:49,315 --> 00:42:50,955
Right? I think in a--

643
00:42:50,956 --> 00:42:53,921
in a clear plastic bowl
that's that size.

644
00:42:53,922 --> 00:42:55,983
And you know what?
I also just want...

645
00:42:56,718 --> 00:42:59,051
I want real tangerines
'cause I want to use them.

646
00:42:59,052 --> 00:43:00,984
- Mm-hm.
- I want them to...

647
00:43:00,985 --> 00:43:02,586
I want there to be action.

648
00:43:02,587 --> 00:43:04,152
Okay, yeah, so

649
00:43:04,153 --> 00:43:05,790
we're gonna have
a clear plastic bowl

650
00:43:05,791 --> 00:43:07,580
with tangerines in it
and the head in there.

651
00:43:07,581 --> 00:43:09,254
No, no, the tangerines
are gonna--

652
00:43:09,255 --> 00:43:11,885
So, we're gonna establish
the clear plastic-plastic bowl

653
00:43:11,886 --> 00:43:13,923
on the set,

654
00:43:13,924 --> 00:43:16,217
and then we're gonna
use it later for the head.

655
00:43:16,218 --> 00:43:18,490
Got it.
Okay, uh, yeah, I can...

656
00:43:18,491 --> 00:43:20,623
find a machete
and a bowl

657
00:43:20,624 --> 00:43:22,386
and we'll pick up
some tangerines.

658
00:43:22,387 --> 00:43:24,987
Great. And I need that all
by tomorrow rehearsal.

659
00:43:24,988 --> 00:43:26,581
- I'll have something.
- Thank you.

660
00:43:26,582 --> 00:43:29,982
Great. Um, hey,
what do you think of this?

661
00:43:30,650 --> 00:43:32,554
Is that a cast?

662
00:43:32,555 --> 00:43:34,156
No, I sculpted it.

663
00:43:35,116 --> 00:43:36,650
Why?

664
00:43:38,021 --> 00:43:39,656
I just, I wasn't sure

665
00:43:39,657 --> 00:43:41,255
that we needed
to do it that way.

666
00:43:43,626 --> 00:43:45,118
You might wanna rethink this

667
00:43:45,119 --> 00:43:47,590
because, um...

668
00:43:47,591 --> 00:43:49,989
it's just,
if we're recording this,

669
00:43:49,990 --> 00:43:52,485
this isn't gonna work
because of the closeup.

670
00:43:56,292 --> 00:43:57,956
Right.

671
00:43:57,957 --> 00:44:02,919
So, can you just look at it
and kind of describe

672
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:04,588
what your concerns are
with it?

673
00:44:04,589 --> 00:44:07,387
Well, I think this is...

674
00:44:07,388 --> 00:44:10,984
You've done really good work,
but it-it's not feeling right.

675
00:44:10,985 --> 00:44:12,581
Okay. And why is that?

676
00:44:12,582 --> 00:44:15,251
Because it's, um,
well, it's a sculpture

677
00:44:15,252 --> 00:44:17,480
and a sculpture
changes over time.

678
00:44:17,481 --> 00:44:19,086
It evolves
as you're working on it.

679
00:44:19,087 --> 00:44:21,723
But a cast...
is-is like a photo.

680
00:44:21,724 --> 00:44:23,582
It's a snapshot
of somebody's face

681
00:44:23,583 --> 00:44:25,892
while it's being set in mold,
like a death mask.

682
00:44:26,789 --> 00:44:28,325
Okay, so, then...

683
00:44:28,826 --> 00:44:31,788
should I give him
any kind of direction

684
00:44:31,789 --> 00:44:33,749
as I'm,
as I'm making the mask?

685
00:44:34,458 --> 00:44:36,090
About what?

686
00:44:36,091 --> 00:44:38,920
Like his expression as I'm
putting this stuff on his face.

687
00:44:38,921 --> 00:44:40,848
That's a good question.
Um...

688
00:44:43,516 --> 00:44:45,156
He's at peace
with the idea.

689
00:44:46,517 --> 00:44:48,219
Of having
his head chopped off?

690
00:44:48,220 --> 00:44:50,419
Of knowing that he
needs to be sacrificed.

691
00:44:52,817 --> 00:44:54,949
- Okay, I gotta go. You good?
- Yeah. Thank you.

692
00:44:54,950 --> 00:44:56,551
Thank you.

693
00:44:58,653 --> 00:45:02,354
Uh, I think it would make sense
if-if, Ambur, you...

694
00:45:03,123 --> 00:45:05,656
scrambled around
trying to pick these up.

695
00:45:05,657 --> 00:45:07,384
I'd rather stay here
and watch.

696
00:45:07,385 --> 00:45:09,382
Uh, Jeanine, you can't
just have tangerines

697
00:45:09,383 --> 00:45:11,116
rolling into
the orchestra pit.

698
00:45:11,117 --> 00:45:12,724
- Okay.
- I'm sorry.

699
00:45:12,725 --> 00:45:15,282
I don't understand
what my wife is doing.

700
00:45:15,283 --> 00:45:16,889
Who's chopping the head off?

701
00:45:16,890 --> 00:45:18,653
Well, that's not clear.
Maybe both of you.

702
00:45:18,654 --> 00:45:20,483
But...

703
00:45:20,484 --> 00:45:23,219
It doesn't take two people
to chop a head off.

704
00:45:23,220 --> 00:45:25,782
Normally there's an axe,
now there's a machete.

705
00:45:25,783 --> 00:45:28,423
They've just sent down a guard
who's been told to do that.

706
00:45:28,424 --> 00:45:30,221
And now the both of you

707
00:45:30,222 --> 00:45:33,085
have to take full responsibility
for what you're doing.

708
00:45:33,086 --> 00:45:35,254
I'm sorry,
I don't understand.

709
00:45:35,255 --> 00:45:38,623
You don't have to understand.
You just have to trust

710
00:45:38,624 --> 00:45:40,417
that this is what
you have to do.

711
00:45:40,418 --> 00:45:43,780
Salome danced because
she had something to say.

712
00:45:43,781 --> 00:45:46,985
Not because she had to
prove anything to anybody.

713
00:45:46,986 --> 00:45:49,156
Not the least of all to you.

714
00:45:59,322 --> 00:46:01,216
<i>The winter storm
has taken down a tree</i>

715
00:46:01,217 --> 00:46:02,815
<i>at the house I'm staying in.</i>

716
00:46:04,219 --> 00:46:05,755
<i>No major damage done.</i>

717
00:46:06,291 --> 00:46:08,752
<i>But the owners will come back
to find it broken.</i>

718
00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:12,655
<i>I send them a picture
to lessen the blow.</i>

719
00:46:15,726 --> 00:46:17,415
It's so strange
to be surrounded

720
00:46:17,416 --> 00:46:19,892
by photos
of somebody else's family.

721
00:46:21,616 --> 00:46:23,150
Especially when
I'm thinking about

722
00:46:23,151 --> 00:46:24,848
the family that you promised me.

723
00:46:26,991 --> 00:46:29,024
D'you ever believe
in that family, Charles?

724
00:46:30,057 --> 00:46:31,919
<i>I try to speak with you,
Charles.</i>

725
00:46:32,454 --> 00:46:35,919
Were you... really prepared
to leave her for me?

726
00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:37,647
<i>As though you're beside me.</i>

727
00:46:45,387 --> 00:46:47,222
<i>I've been asked
to make this personal.</i>

728
00:46:51,787 --> 00:46:53,321
<i>So I am.</i>

729
00:46:54,518 --> 00:46:56,683
<i>Pretending that
you can hear my words.</i>

730
00:47:00,283 --> 00:47:01,913
<i>I feel my hair</i>

731
00:47:01,914 --> 00:47:05,116
<i>as a singer you directed
so long ago feels his hair.</i>

732
00:47:17,991 --> 00:47:19,991
<i>I watch how
possessed she became</i>

733
00:47:20,859 --> 00:47:23,057
<i>and remember how
possessed I became.</i>

734
00:47:24,823 --> 00:47:26,518
<i>The crazed enchantment.</i>

735
00:47:29,889 --> 00:47:31,422
<i>How do I bring you back?</i>

736
00:47:34,460 --> 00:47:35,950
<i>Bring what we had back?</i>

737
00:47:39,289 --> 00:47:41,090
<i>I brought the book
of pictures you made.</i>

738
00:47:43,791 --> 00:47:45,584
<i>I hold it as something sacred.</i>

739
00:47:49,221 --> 00:47:51,848
<i>A faint
and lingering fragrance.</i>

740
00:47:58,150 --> 00:48:00,156
<i>The inhalation of you.</i>

741
00:48:04,617 --> 00:48:07,156
<i>Blurred traces
of your spirit, Charles.</i>

742
00:48:11,189 --> 00:48:13,053
<i>The beautiful dance
of her fingers</i>

743
00:48:13,054 --> 00:48:15,321
<i>as they draw energy
from his lips.</i>

744
00:48:17,491 --> 00:48:19,024
<i>Your lips.</i>

745
00:48:25,321 --> 00:48:27,481
<i>The moon has a
strange look tonight.</i>

746
00:48:30,186 --> 00:48:31,985
<i>She is like a madwoman</i>

747
00:48:31,986 --> 00:48:34,222
<i>seeking everywhere for lovers.</i>

748
00:48:40,057 --> 00:48:42,156
<i>I can feel you beside me
as I watch.</i>

749
00:48:45,684 --> 00:48:48,090
<i>The way your fingers
ran over my skin.</i>

750
00:48:52,452 --> 00:48:54,423
<i>The electric shock
of your touch.</i>

751
00:48:59,658 --> 00:49:01,149
<i>Having you inside me.</i>

752
00:49:07,054 --> 00:49:08,588
<i>I wanted you so much.</i>

753
00:49:12,288 --> 00:49:15,354
<i>And thou did'st
fill my veins with fire.</i>

754
00:49:16,716 --> 00:49:18,991
<i>Wherefore dids't thou
not look at me?</i>

755
00:49:19,955 --> 00:49:21,551
<i>If thou hast looked at me,</i>

756
00:49:22,525 --> 00:49:24,051
<i>thou hast loved me.</i>

757
00:49:26,993 --> 00:49:28,991
<i>Well, I know that thou
would'st have loved me.</i>

758
00:49:35,124 --> 00:49:36,786
<i>I shoot the new singers
in their costumes</i>

759
00:49:36,787 --> 00:49:38,749
<i>for the first time.</i>

760
00:49:38,750 --> 00:49:41,119
<i>They look just like their
counterparts from back then.</i>

761
00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:42,823
You look amazing, Carolyn.

762
00:49:42,824 --> 00:49:44,423
<i>They laugh nervously
as I tell them</i>

763
00:49:44,424 --> 00:49:46,021
<i>how good they look.</i>

764
00:49:46,489 --> 00:49:49,252
<i>But I know that they'll never
achieve the crazy rapture</i>

765
00:49:49,253 --> 00:49:51,086
<i>you got with your singers
back then.</i>

766
00:49:51,087 --> 00:49:53,649
- Where's my mark?
- Oh, mark there.

767
00:49:53,650 --> 00:49:55,815
<i>What more can I do
to inspire them, Charles...</i>

768
00:49:57,783 --> 00:49:59,650
<i>to get the same performance
as you did?</i>

769
00:50:32,285 --> 00:50:34,057
Carolyn?

770
00:50:37,356 --> 00:50:40,321
Is there any way you can
move your head up and down?

771
00:50:42,125 --> 00:50:44,683
Because I-I just really wanna--
I want it to--

772
00:50:45,658 --> 00:50:47,518
be very clear as to what...

773
00:50:48,284 --> 00:50:49,818
what you're doing.

774
00:50:50,453 --> 00:50:52,416
And-and if you look at
what Ambur's doing,

775
00:50:52,417 --> 00:50:54,785
I can-I can, I can feel
her desperation

776
00:50:54,786 --> 00:50:56,583
in her entire body.

777
00:50:56,584 --> 00:51:00,518
She's just, and I-and I,
I just wanna feel like, um,

778
00:51:01,792 --> 00:51:04,320
like you have that
exact same need.

779
00:51:04,321 --> 00:51:06,991
So I guess if you just,
like, a little bit more...

780
00:51:07,687 --> 00:51:09,222
movement

781
00:51:09,821 --> 00:51:11,355
in the moment.

782
00:51:12,324 --> 00:51:15,119
- You want me to look at Ambur.
- No, no, no, no, no.

783
00:51:15,120 --> 00:51:17,354
Just
you stay with Narraboth.

784
00:51:17,987 --> 00:51:19,716
And with the-- more...

785
00:51:20,450 --> 00:51:22,449
- Okay.
- I think we should

786
00:51:22,450 --> 00:51:25,583
maybe... take it back
to the rehearsal room.

787
00:51:25,584 --> 00:51:27,991
We'll have to get the
intimacy coordinator for this.

788
00:51:29,190 --> 00:51:30,919
She should be around
for this kind of thing.

789
00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:32,752
The intimacy coordinator.

790
00:51:32,753 --> 00:51:34,482
- Yeah.
- Yeah.

791
00:51:34,483 --> 00:51:36,716
Was it important to you
back then? And...

792
00:51:37,482 --> 00:51:39,090
is it important to you now?

793
00:51:40,189 --> 00:51:42,084
I'm sorry, what?
Was what important?

794
00:51:42,786 --> 00:51:45,618
That it feels like they're
actually having sex on stage.

795
00:51:45,619 --> 00:51:47,222
Right.

796
00:51:47,888 --> 00:51:49,916
Well, I'm trying to...

797
00:51:50,952 --> 00:51:53,889
- fulfill the original concept.
- Yeah, but it's your show now.

798
00:51:53,890 --> 00:51:56,415
- In some ways.
- And whatever erotic energy

799
00:51:56,416 --> 00:51:58,250
existed back then,
it's not necessarily

800
00:51:58,251 --> 00:52:00,081
what we're dealing
with now. Right?

801
00:52:00,850 --> 00:52:04,120
I mean, you're not
the same person that you were

802
00:52:04,121 --> 00:52:06,584
and he's not the same person
that he was.

803
00:52:07,118 --> 00:52:08,618
Charles is dead.

804
00:52:08,619 --> 00:52:10,222
Hm.

805
00:52:10,820 --> 00:52:12,581
Of course.

806
00:52:12,582 --> 00:52:15,321
So he's definitely
not the same person. Hm.

807
00:52:17,991 --> 00:52:20,384
So, we're gonna go
all the way down.

808
00:52:20,385 --> 00:52:24,221
Long, flat back
and then roll up... Great.

809
00:52:24,222 --> 00:52:26,749
And then do a real, um,
do a really thorough, like,

810
00:52:26,750 --> 00:52:29,218
back bend, like a roll-through.
Kind of like cat cow in...

811
00:52:29,219 --> 00:52:31,287
Where is he?

812
00:52:31,288 --> 00:52:34,616
Uh, he just messaged.
He's running late 15 minutes.

813
00:52:34,617 --> 00:52:37,418
Okay, I don't think
we can do this without him.

814
00:52:37,419 --> 00:52:39,583
And this intimacy coordinator's
not working for me.

815
00:52:39,584 --> 00:52:41,780
- Feels like a waste of time.
- But we have no choice.

816
00:52:41,781 --> 00:52:44,752
We need an intimacy coordinator
for these scenes.

817
00:52:44,753 --> 00:52:47,024
Mmm... Do we?

818
00:52:47,559 --> 00:52:49,090
Yes, it's a requirement.

819
00:52:49,624 --> 00:52:51,391
Okay, Ambur, stop.

820
00:52:54,059 --> 00:52:56,650
Luke, could you come with me
for a second please?

821
00:52:59,321 --> 00:53:01,449
It's good. It's so good.
The physicality--

822
00:53:01,450 --> 00:53:03,315
working on physicality's great
but it has to be

823
00:53:03,316 --> 00:53:05,154
driven from something, right?

824
00:53:05,155 --> 00:53:07,888
You have to be inspired
by what is happening.

825
00:53:07,889 --> 00:53:10,584
There has to be
something moving you

826
00:53:11,650 --> 00:53:14,650
that's more in your body
and your soul.

827
00:53:15,218 --> 00:53:16,989
So, as she is singing,

828
00:53:16,990 --> 00:53:21,151
about how beautiful
John the Baptist's hair is,

829
00:53:21,152 --> 00:53:22,890
you are using that
as permission

830
00:53:22,891 --> 00:53:26,815
as an opportunity that the music
is also giving you

831
00:53:27,660 --> 00:53:31,056
to then touch him.
Right? So, you--

832
00:53:31,057 --> 00:53:34,848
From the part where
she says his hair is amazing.

833
00:53:38,923 --> 00:53:41,556
So, it's like you suddenly
have this ability

834
00:53:41,557 --> 00:53:44,489
to express through your fingers

835
00:53:45,024 --> 00:53:48,324
everything that Salome
can only sing about.

836
00:53:54,559 --> 00:53:57,419
It is...
in thy hair...

837
00:53:59,053 --> 00:54:00,683
that I am enamoured.

838
00:54:01,218 --> 00:54:03,057
Let me touch thy hair.

839
00:54:06,183 --> 00:54:07,716
Thank you.

840
00:54:13,488 --> 00:54:16,189
And then there's this
crazy thing happening downstage.

841
00:54:17,455 --> 00:54:20,421
And, so, everything that
you're doing is unleashed then.

842
00:54:20,422 --> 00:54:21,987
Think of Salome.

843
00:54:21,988 --> 00:54:24,217
She is using
everything in her power

844
00:54:24,218 --> 00:54:27,113
to have this
crazy man beheaded.

845
00:54:29,289 --> 00:54:31,547
So, what is the point
of all this sacrifice

846
00:54:31,548 --> 00:54:33,413
that ends
in the most gruesome thing

847
00:54:33,414 --> 00:54:35,823
that you've ever seen on stage?

848
00:54:35,824 --> 00:54:39,749
Is it passion?
Is it punishment? What is it?

849
00:54:39,750 --> 00:54:43,053
But whatever it is, that emotion
that you're getting from it,

850
00:54:43,054 --> 00:54:45,157
that emotion
is filtering through you.

851
00:54:47,053 --> 00:54:49,616
It's painful
and it's beautiful

852
00:54:49,617 --> 00:54:52,683
and-and-and-and-and, so,
you're not just sucking him off,

853
00:54:53,950 --> 00:54:59,482
you are fully consuming him
so much so that he has...

854
00:54:59,483 --> 00:55:02,318
he has nothing else to do
but pick up the gun,

855
00:55:02,319 --> 00:55:04,884
point it to his head
and shoot himself dead

856
00:55:06,755 --> 00:55:08,485
just as he's
about to come.

857
00:55:09,952 --> 00:55:11,456
Explosion.

858
00:55:15,627 --> 00:55:17,414
And then Salome
picks up the gun

859
00:55:17,415 --> 00:55:20,089
that he just used
to kill himself

860
00:55:20,090 --> 00:55:23,848
and she walks downstage,
she puts the gun to her head

861
00:55:24,617 --> 00:55:26,419
just like she's going to
shoot herself.

862
00:55:38,852 --> 00:55:41,323
<i>I don't understand.
Are you... Are you spying on me?</i>

863
00:55:41,324 --> 00:55:42,922
Of course not.

864
00:55:42,923 --> 00:55:44,957
I'm here to support you
in any way I can.

865
00:55:44,958 --> 00:55:46,987
Okay, so, I don't understand
what you're saying.

866
00:55:46,988 --> 00:55:49,321
That management
is a little concerned

867
00:55:49,322 --> 00:55:51,483
about some of the ideas that
you had at the presentation.

868
00:55:51,484 --> 00:55:54,316
-  Beatrice.
- About making changes.

869
00:55:54,317 --> 00:55:57,549
I said
they are small changes.

870
00:55:57,550 --> 00:55:59,752
Right, but then you had
this idea about Salome

871
00:55:59,753 --> 00:56:01,354
shooting herself.

872
00:56:02,952 --> 00:56:04,446
What?

873
00:56:04,447 --> 00:56:07,448
He shoots himself.
Narraboth.

874
00:56:07,449 --> 00:56:10,555
But then
she picks up his gun and--

875
00:56:10,556 --> 00:56:12,756
And contemplates it.

876
00:56:14,589 --> 00:56:16,419
She doesn't kill herself.

877
00:56:17,518 --> 00:56:19,746
If, if she killed herself,
then the opera

878
00:56:19,747 --> 00:56:22,222
would end right there
and it doesn't. Right?

879
00:56:22,722 --> 00:56:24,253
If she died,

880
00:56:24,254 --> 00:56:28,416
then there wouldn't be
anybody to sing her role.

881
00:56:28,417 --> 00:56:30,957
Like, what,
what's with the head, then?

882
00:56:30,958 --> 00:56:34,120
I mean, what is this all for?
That is ridiculous.

883
00:56:34,121 --> 00:56:36,983
But now you have this idea
about her mother

884
00:56:36,984 --> 00:56:38,957
and the machete...

885
00:56:38,958 --> 00:56:41,249
I-I have to tell them.
I'm just letting you know that.

886
00:56:41,250 --> 00:56:43,317
So, you are spying on me.

887
00:56:43,318 --> 00:56:45,325
Look, we all understand
that you must

888
00:56:45,893 --> 00:56:47,954
feel very conflicted
about all of this, but--

889
00:56:47,955 --> 00:56:49,984
No, I'm not.
I'm-I'm really not.

890
00:56:49,985 --> 00:56:51,848
Really, when I chose...

891
00:56:52,559 --> 00:56:54,156
When I accepted this job,

892
00:56:54,157 --> 00:56:57,448
I told myself that I was gonna
make the most of it. Okay?

893
00:56:57,449 --> 00:56:59,320
So, you know,
you can tell management

894
00:56:59,321 --> 00:57:01,882
that it was an odd choice
on their part to remount this.

895
00:57:02,451 --> 00:57:04,550
Okay, considering
that everybody

896
00:57:04,551 --> 00:57:07,518
thought that Charles
was difficult, to say the least.

897
00:57:09,027 --> 00:57:11,817
Even though management
happened to be married to him

898
00:57:11,818 --> 00:57:13,649
for 30 years.

899
00:57:13,650 --> 00:57:16,781
It was Beatrice's decision.
It's a successful show.

900
00:57:16,782 --> 00:57:20,385
Okay, but she didn't have to
fulfill his stupid wish.

901
00:57:20,386 --> 00:57:22,947
Nobody had to,
to take that request seriously.

902
00:57:22,948 --> 00:57:26,318
It's not like somebody was gonna
sue them if I didn't remount it.

903
00:57:26,319 --> 00:57:28,320
No one needed to know.
I didn't need to know.

904
00:57:28,321 --> 00:57:30,551
We wouldn't even be
having this conversation, Kathy.

905
00:57:34,856 --> 00:57:36,384
Look, I should head back.

906
00:57:36,385 --> 00:57:38,049
Everybody's getting
off break now and...

907
00:57:38,050 --> 00:57:40,381
Yeah. It's fine.

908
00:57:48,950 --> 00:57:50,991
<i>Your daughter
is going to dance for me.</i>

909
00:57:52,321 --> 00:57:54,387
<i>Will you not dance for me,
Salome?</i>

910
00:57:55,453 --> 00:57:58,223
<i>That is really enlightening.</i>

911
00:57:58,791 --> 00:58:00,321
<i>If you dance for me,</i>

912
00:58:01,321 --> 00:58:03,051
<i>you may ask of me
whatever you wish</i>

913
00:58:03,052 --> 00:58:04,715
<i>and I will give it to thee.</i>

914
00:58:04,716 --> 00:58:06,749
<i>But that leads me
to my next question.</i>

915
00:58:08,686 --> 00:58:10,884
I hear you're making a diary
about the whole experience.

916
00:58:10,885 --> 00:58:12,722
Is that like, um...

917
00:58:12,723 --> 00:58:14,280
like a last letter
to Charles?

918
00:58:17,784 --> 00:58:19,890
A journal, uh, yeah,
I was thinking about that.

919
00:58:19,891 --> 00:58:23,255
I was. I think it's a--
It would be nice to...

920
00:58:24,825 --> 00:58:27,555
To-to, um,
to write about my...

921
00:58:28,125 --> 00:58:31,886
my experience as I'm
taking on this production.

922
00:58:31,887 --> 00:58:34,821
Um, I am shooting some footage

923
00:58:34,822 --> 00:58:36,614
behind the scenes
with my iPhone.

924
00:58:36,615 --> 00:58:39,650
I think that's gonna...
turn into something.

925
00:58:39,651 --> 00:58:43,387
I don't know what yet, but
it's important to me to, to...

926
00:58:44,558 --> 00:58:46,091
to have that footage.

927
00:58:47,026 --> 00:58:50,255
Okay, that sounds
really interesting. And, um...

928
00:58:52,224 --> 00:58:54,282
Can we talk about the
relationship between you two

929
00:58:54,283 --> 00:58:56,082
during the original production?

930
00:58:56,083 --> 00:58:57,647
What do you mean?

931
00:58:57,648 --> 00:58:59,716
I mean your relationship
with Charles.

932
00:59:01,351 --> 00:59:02,991
Our working relationship.

933
00:59:04,190 --> 00:59:06,716
I mean, didn't it
go beyond that? It's...

934
00:59:07,517 --> 00:59:09,220
kind of common knowledge
around here.

935
00:59:09,221 --> 00:59:12,225
I-I don't feel comfortable
talking about that.

936
00:59:12,726 --> 00:59:15,883
Okay, if-if we can
not discuss that.

937
00:59:15,884 --> 00:59:17,613
Of course.

938
00:59:17,614 --> 00:59:19,419
How about
I share something with you?

939
00:59:21,019 --> 00:59:22,919
I knew Charles.

940
00:59:22,920 --> 00:59:25,321
Charles told me his story once

941
00:59:26,389 --> 00:59:29,321
about how the whole
dance section in the opera

942
00:59:29,886 --> 00:59:31,421
is, um...

943
00:59:32,290 --> 00:59:34,925
based on something
that happened with your father.

944
00:59:35,623 --> 00:59:37,156
In real life.

945
00:59:38,726 --> 00:59:40,485
And I-I had the
absolute privilege

946
00:59:40,486 --> 00:59:42,657
to see the essay that you
wanted to print in the program.

947
00:59:42,658 --> 00:59:44,315
I thought it was
incredibly disrespectful

948
00:59:44,316 --> 00:59:45,991
they didn't want to use it.

949
00:59:48,721 --> 00:59:50,255
But, um...

950
00:59:53,726 --> 00:59:55,888
I was interested
in your fascination

951
00:59:55,889 --> 00:59:57,551
in Herod's line to Salome,
you know?

952
00:59:58,120 --> 00:59:59,815
About loving her too much.

953
01:00:01,050 --> 01:00:04,388
Charles told me that your dad
used to make these crazy videos

954
01:00:04,389 --> 01:00:07,551
about you and you both would go
into the forest when were little

955
01:00:07,552 --> 01:00:09,781
and he would tape you while
you made these bizarre dances.

956
01:00:09,782 --> 01:00:12,723
I mean, how do you feel
about how that has inspired,

957
01:00:12,724 --> 01:00:14,755
...very clearly...

958
01:00:14,756 --> 01:00:16,987
a major part
of this whole show?

959
01:00:32,292 --> 01:00:34,050
I...

960
01:00:34,051 --> 01:00:36,892
think I need a break.

961
01:00:38,622 --> 01:00:40,156
Excuse me.

962
01:00:43,525 --> 01:00:45,058
Something wrong?

963
01:00:45,793 --> 01:00:48,055
Beatrice wants
to have a word with you.

964
01:00:48,056 --> 01:00:50,149
<i>Do you feel
the wind on your skin?</i>

965
01:00:50,150 --> 01:00:51,757
<i>Young Jeanine: Yeah.</i>

966
01:00:51,758 --> 01:00:54,157
<i>Yes? It's more sensitive now,
isn't it?</i>

967
01:00:54,158 --> 01:00:57,152
<i>-It is true, Salome.
-Take away one sense,</i>

968
01:00:57,153 --> 01:00:58,788
<i>all the others
become heightened.</i>

969
01:00:58,789 --> 01:01:00,382
<i>Your beauty
has troubled me.</i>

970
01:01:00,383 --> 01:01:03,154
<i>More intense.
Remember that.</i>

971
01:01:03,155 --> 01:01:05,253
<i>Your beauty
has grievously troubled me.</i>

972
01:01:05,254 --> 01:01:07,223
<i>That's your responsibility
as an artist.</i>

973
01:01:11,059 --> 01:01:13,057
<i>And I have
looked at you too much.</i>

974
01:01:15,157 --> 01:01:17,749
<i>It may be
that I have loved you too much.</i>

975
01:01:20,493 --> 01:01:22,024
She's had a good day.

976
01:01:22,657 --> 01:01:24,189
Is that right, Mom?

977
01:01:24,724 --> 01:01:26,256
If that's what she says.

978
01:01:26,257 --> 01:01:27,848
Oh.

979
01:01:30,625 --> 01:01:32,156
Do you know where I am?

980
01:01:33,393 --> 01:01:34,925
Doing your work.

981
01:01:36,152 --> 01:01:37,683
And what is that?

982
01:01:38,184 --> 01:01:39,716
Making plays.

983
01:01:40,318 --> 01:01:41,848
You've always liked plays.

984
01:01:43,351 --> 01:01:44,892
You like making things up.

985
01:01:48,056 --> 01:01:49,717
Are you proud
of your daughter?

986
01:01:49,718 --> 01:01:51,388
Oh, yes.

987
01:01:51,389 --> 01:01:52,982
See?

988
01:01:53,484 --> 01:01:55,090
Proud of the things
I make up?

989
01:01:57,893 --> 01:01:59,716
Do you know how long
I'm gonna be gone, Mom?

990
01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:03,084
I'm not sure.

991
01:02:03,085 --> 01:02:04,683
Ask Dimitra.
She knows.

992
01:02:05,689 --> 01:02:07,222
Down to the hour.

993
01:02:15,188 --> 01:02:16,722
- 'Til the end of the month.
- Oh.

994
01:02:16,723 --> 01:02:20,258
Yeah. Exactly.
Just enough time.

995
01:02:25,285 --> 01:02:26,815
<i>She wonders if I know.</i>

996
01:02:28,391 --> 01:02:31,584
<i>This is probably almost exactly
how Beatrice imagined me.</i>

997
01:02:33,360 --> 01:02:34,886
<i>Your wife.</i>

998
01:02:35,521 --> 01:02:38,321
<i>Just a silly little threat.
Another passing fling.</i>

999
01:02:40,489 --> 01:02:43,387
<i>What does she really know about
what has gone on in this house?</i>

1000
01:02:45,391 --> 01:02:48,714
<i>I imagine her swinging around
to glance at the family portrait</i>

1001
01:02:48,715 --> 01:02:51,551
<i>suddenly frightened
by the story it tells.</i>

1002
01:02:52,551 --> 01:02:54,415
<i>How my father
read me so many plays</i>

1003
01:02:54,416 --> 01:02:56,551
<i>and made me act out
so many scenes.</i>

1004
01:02:57,692 --> 01:03:00,156
<i>His artistic aspirations for me</i>

1005
01:03:01,786 --> 01:03:06,455
<i>somehow always as frustrated
as his aspirations for himself.</i>

1006
01:03:08,089 --> 01:03:10,714
Now that we've abandoned
the sculpture idea,

1007
01:03:10,715 --> 01:03:13,748
we're going to try
for the more traditional method.

1008
01:03:13,749 --> 01:03:16,924
So the first step in the process
that you're going to see

1009
01:03:16,925 --> 01:03:21,924
is I will put a layer of
petroleum jelly on Johan's face,

1010
01:03:21,925 --> 01:03:26,548
and then, on top of that,
I'll use a soft alginate gel

1011
01:03:26,549 --> 01:03:29,121
which will pick up
the details of his skin.

1012
01:03:29,122 --> 01:03:32,282
And for that phase
I'm gonna work really quickly

1013
01:03:32,283 --> 01:03:34,482
because it dries super-fast,

1014
01:03:34,483 --> 01:03:36,953
like, it's gonna set
in less than ten minutes.

1015
01:03:36,954 --> 01:03:38,815
So...

1016
01:03:39,650 --> 01:03:42,919
I end up being
your guinea pig after all.

1017
01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:46,016
Yeah, I just realized that

1018
01:03:46,718 --> 01:03:48,617
there needed to be
a lot more detail in the head.

1019
01:03:48,618 --> 01:03:51,986
It's really gotta be lifelike,
especially for the broadcast.

1020
01:03:51,987 --> 01:03:54,716
No worries.
I'm used to this.

1021
01:03:56,320 --> 01:03:58,317
It's the way
it's usually done.

1022
01:03:58,318 --> 01:04:00,290
I'm sorry
to have wasted your time.

1023
01:04:00,291 --> 01:04:02,255
Not at all.

1024
01:04:02,955 --> 01:04:05,988
I enjoy watching you work.

1025
01:04:10,650 --> 01:04:14,354
Can I keep it? I mean...
the sculpture?

1026
01:04:15,524 --> 01:04:17,354
Yeah, I guess.

1027
01:04:20,718 --> 01:04:24,485
I'll give it to the
national gallery back home.

1028
01:04:26,958 --> 01:04:28,789
Okay, I'm gonna put some
on your lips now

1029
01:04:28,790 --> 01:04:30,819
so you might
want to stop talking.

1030
01:04:30,820 --> 01:04:33,389
My lips will be sealed.

1031
01:04:33,390 --> 01:04:34,986
Uh, no, no.

1032
01:04:34,987 --> 01:04:37,723
- Stop it?
- No, just... Stop!

1033
01:04:37,724 --> 01:04:40,387
Stop!

1034
01:04:42,057 --> 01:04:44,925
This was unexpected.

1035
01:04:45,989 --> 01:04:49,280
A singer
playing John the Baptist

1036
01:04:49,281 --> 01:04:51,354
makes a pass at me.

1037
01:04:53,651 --> 01:04:57,057
What's that thing in the Bible
about judge not?

1038
01:05:04,492 --> 01:05:06,024
Things became...

1039
01:05:07,393 --> 01:05:08,925
really complicated.

1040
01:05:11,884 --> 01:05:15,354
Like, when you and I were
working on that thing in school

1041
01:05:18,393 --> 01:05:19,925
things were...

1042
01:05:20,722 --> 01:05:22,252
really intense.

1043
01:05:24,315 --> 01:05:26,453
With Charles and you.

1044
01:05:26,454 --> 01:05:28,057
Mmm.

1045
01:05:31,391 --> 01:05:32,925
And...

1046
01:05:34,986 --> 01:05:36,518
And other things.

1047
01:05:41,792 --> 01:05:43,487
I sensed
something was going on.

1048
01:05:43,488 --> 01:05:45,090
No you didn't.

1049
01:05:45,687 --> 01:05:47,222
No.

1050
01:05:48,555 --> 01:05:50,090
How?

1051
01:05:51,889 --> 01:05:53,419
I was watching you...

1052
01:05:54,623 --> 01:05:56,156
the whole time.

1053
01:05:56,957 --> 01:05:58,485
I couldn't
take my eyes off you.

1054
01:06:00,620 --> 01:06:04,716
Um, I could tell
you were in a crazy place.

1055
01:06:06,922 --> 01:06:08,683
I wanted to help you
find a way out.

1056
01:06:13,658 --> 01:06:15,157
<i>Somewhere.</i>

1057
01:06:15,158 --> 01:06:16,848
<i>Here...</i>

1058
01:06:18,485 --> 01:06:20,518
<i>there's an awful
sense of vagueness.</i>

1059
01:06:24,057 --> 01:06:26,321
<i>Uncertainty between what I remember</i>

1060
01:06:27,483 --> 01:06:29,024
<i>and what actually took place.</i>

1061
01:06:34,725 --> 01:06:36,317
<i>The girl takes off her blindfold</i>

1062
01:06:36,318 --> 01:06:38,450
<i>and stares ahead
as he scurries away.</i>

1063
01:06:42,650 --> 01:06:44,816
<i>She feels the blindfold
in her hand</i>

1064
01:06:45,518 --> 01:06:47,746
<i>rubbing it
as other shadows appear.</i>

1065
01:06:54,524 --> 01:06:56,050
<i>Ravenous men</i>

1066
01:06:56,551 --> 01:06:59,156
<i>watching as she dances
for her father.</i>

1067
01:07:00,458 --> 01:07:01,991
<i>And for them.</i>

1068
01:07:10,860 --> 01:07:12,787
<i>I never agreed with
the way you staged</i>

1069
01:07:12,788 --> 01:07:14,925
<i>these dark monsters, Charles.</i>

1070
01:07:16,554 --> 01:07:18,813
<i>How you made Salome look
like a stripper in a club</i>

1071
01:07:18,814 --> 01:07:21,925
<i>performing for
a bunch of leering customers.</i>

1072
01:07:23,120 --> 01:07:24,650
<i>It was never like that.</i>

1073
01:07:26,022 --> 01:07:27,551
<i>Not from what I remembered.</i>

1074
01:07:28,625 --> 01:07:30,156
<i>Not from what I told you.</i>

1075
01:07:34,350 --> 01:07:35,881
<i>They touched her.</i>

1076
01:07:36,350 --> 01:07:37,892
<i>They stroked her.</i>

1077
01:07:40,022 --> 01:07:41,815
<i>Did she give them permission?</i>

1078
01:07:43,724 --> 01:07:45,255
<i>You never made that clear.</i>

1079
01:07:50,460 --> 01:07:52,189
<i>This dark doppelganger.</i>

1080
01:07:55,692 --> 01:07:57,683
<i>No, it was never like that.</i>

1081
01:07:59,856 --> 01:08:01,387
<i>That's not how it felt.</i>

1082
01:08:05,022 --> 01:08:07,149
<i>I remember dark fangs and talons</i>

1083
01:08:07,851 --> 01:08:10,848
<i>and their terrible wings
as they beat the air around me.</i>

1084
01:08:13,692 --> 01:08:15,222
<i>I remember feeling trapped.</i>

1085
01:08:16,650 --> 01:08:18,321
<i>But there was nowhere
to escape to.</i>

1086
01:08:30,492 --> 01:08:32,024
<i>Now, this time...</i>

1087
01:08:32,889 --> 01:08:34,650
<i>I try something different.</i>

1088
01:08:36,158 --> 01:08:38,756
And then, now,
I kind of wanna feel the trees.

1089
01:08:38,757 --> 01:08:40,815
I wanna feel
like we're in the forest.

1090
01:08:40,816 --> 01:08:43,714
Not deep into it but I just
wanna sense she's in the forest.

1091
01:08:43,715 --> 01:08:46,157
<i>I want the trees
and branches to come alive</i>

1092
01:08:47,059 --> 01:08:49,419
<i>with a sense of the horror
they are witnessing.</i>

1093
01:08:50,624 --> 01:08:52,120
I really wanna feel...

1094
01:08:52,121 --> 01:08:53,756
<i>Like their spirits
are being tortured</i>

1095
01:08:53,757 --> 01:08:56,156
<i>as Salome performs
her nightmarish</i>

1096
01:08:56,724 --> 01:08:58,387
<i>dance of the seven veils.</i>

1097
01:08:59,683 --> 01:09:01,315
And can you
make the body feel like

1098
01:09:01,316 --> 01:09:03,250
you're almost
getting younger?

1099
01:09:03,251 --> 01:09:05,485
From a woman
into a little girl.

1100
01:09:07,291 --> 01:09:10,255
And then I want a scream.
I want a, I want a, just a...

1101
01:09:12,784 --> 01:09:15,657
Amazing. Yeah. Okay, perf--
And then she's bigger.

1102
01:09:15,658 --> 01:09:17,485
You can get even bigger
and bigger.

1103
01:09:28,491 --> 01:09:30,024
<i>I am Salome.</i>

1104
01:09:31,021 --> 01:09:32,551
<i>Daughter of Herodias.</i>

1105
01:09:33,459 --> 01:09:34,991
<i>Princess of Judea.</i>

1106
01:09:50,091 --> 01:09:52,391
What does Ambur
really think of the ballerinas?

1107
01:09:52,392 --> 01:09:54,255
I wanna break them.

1108
01:09:55,386 --> 01:09:57,785
- Are you serious?
- Mm, very.

1109
01:09:57,786 --> 01:09:59,384
Just cover my eyes.

1110
01:12:28,223 --> 01:12:31,189
<i>It is thy mouth
that I desire.</i>

1111
01:12:34,123 --> 01:12:36,551
<i>It is like a pomegranate
cut in twain</i>

1112
01:12:37,184 --> 01:12:38,716
<i>with a knife.</i>

1113
01:12:47,320 --> 01:12:49,650
<i>Suffer me
to kiss thy mouth.</i>

1114
01:12:59,283 --> 01:13:00,790
<i>No...</i>

1115
01:13:00,791 --> 01:13:02,885
Stop! Stop!

1116
01:13:04,449 --> 01:13:07,090
I don't understand.
Was this staged?

1117
01:13:08,153 --> 01:13:10,117
Uh, what do you mean?

1118
01:13:10,118 --> 01:13:12,419
Did you ask him
to do this?

1119
01:13:13,717 --> 01:13:18,315
No. No, of course not.
I told him to stop.

1120
01:13:18,316 --> 01:13:20,321
- Okay, but...
- And he didn't.

1121
01:13:21,883 --> 01:13:25,448
And why are you thinking
of sending this out now?

1122
01:13:25,449 --> 01:13:27,057
Didn't this happen
a few days ago?

1123
01:13:28,123 --> 01:13:30,518
Last week
as I was making the cast.

1124
01:13:31,660 --> 01:13:34,314
And you finished
making the cast,

1125
01:13:34,315 --> 01:13:35,917
let's be clear on that.

1126
01:13:35,918 --> 01:13:38,451
This thing happened

1127
01:13:38,452 --> 01:13:40,757
then you went ahead
and finished making the cast.

1128
01:13:40,758 --> 01:13:44,419
It took me a while
to fully absorb it.

1129
01:13:48,287 --> 01:13:50,254
You asked me
to document everything

1130
01:13:50,255 --> 01:13:52,749
that went into making
the head of John the Baptist.

1131
01:13:53,384 --> 01:13:54,925
And this is everything.

1132
01:13:56,051 --> 01:13:57,580
Okay.

1133
01:13:57,581 --> 01:14:00,757
But this is also
a recording of, uh,

1134
01:14:00,758 --> 01:14:02,387
of an attack. Uh...

1135
01:14:03,151 --> 01:14:04,892
A sexual attack.

1136
01:14:05,791 --> 01:14:07,419
And you're making that public.

1137
01:14:08,887 --> 01:14:10,448
That's right.

1138
01:14:10,449 --> 01:14:12,719
Just before we open
this production.

1139
01:14:15,984 --> 01:14:17,518
Why?

1140
01:14:19,490 --> 01:14:20,989
I am...

1141
01:14:20,990 --> 01:14:23,982
just completing the job
that I was told to do.

1142
01:14:24,817 --> 01:14:27,482
I have an email from
the marketing team that says

1143
01:14:27,483 --> 01:14:30,985
I can, I can do this
any way that I want to.

1144
01:14:30,986 --> 01:14:33,447
That I should make it personal.

1145
01:14:33,448 --> 01:14:35,485
And this just got
very personal.

1146
01:14:37,189 --> 01:14:39,049
I feel that
I have a responsibility

1147
01:14:39,050 --> 01:14:40,823
to make it known.

1148
01:14:40,824 --> 01:14:42,584
We're not obliged
to give our approval.

1149
01:14:43,655 --> 01:14:45,251
Really?

1150
01:14:45,252 --> 01:14:46,892
You're not gonna
give me your approval?

1151
01:14:48,486 --> 01:14:50,423
Is that the message
that the opera company

1152
01:14:50,424 --> 01:14:52,151
wants to put out there

1153
01:14:52,152 --> 01:14:53,815
when I decide to
show this anyway?

1154
01:14:55,191 --> 01:14:57,415
I just-I don't-I don't think
that is a great idea

1155
01:14:57,416 --> 01:14:59,983
to try and ban me
from making this public.

1156
01:14:59,984 --> 01:15:01,584
Does he know?

1157
01:15:04,123 --> 01:15:06,925
Johan.
That you're planning to do this?

1158
01:15:08,150 --> 01:15:09,683
Not yet.

1159
01:15:13,625 --> 01:15:15,848
Okay.

1160
01:15:18,518 --> 01:15:20,189
What can we do
to get you to reconsider?

1161
01:15:21,357 --> 01:15:24,821
I know this must have been
very traumatic for you, Clea.

1162
01:15:24,822 --> 01:15:26,419
I'm not trying to
diminish that.

1163
01:15:27,683 --> 01:15:30,057
Is there any way
we can find a solution?

1164
01:15:47,723 --> 01:15:49,256
What is she doing?

1165
01:15:50,158 --> 01:15:52,485
- What do you mean?
- Ambur, what is she doing?

1166
01:16:04,651 --> 01:16:06,387
Why is she
in a different opera right now?

1167
01:16:07,856 --> 01:16:10,387
Uh, is it the performance?

1168
01:16:14,326 --> 01:16:16,382
I-- I...

1169
01:16:16,383 --> 01:16:18,816
I don't understand.
I thought...

1170
01:16:19,518 --> 01:16:21,290
Can we, like,
pause for one second?

1171
01:16:22,890 --> 01:16:25,219
Uh, what is it
that you're not happy with?

1172
01:16:25,220 --> 01:16:26,952
<i>Put your hand
to your face.</i>

1173
01:16:26,953 --> 01:16:28,652
<i>Yeah, perfect. Just like that.</i>

1174
01:16:29,288 --> 01:16:30,922
<i>It's sensual.
You know that word.</i>

1175
01:16:30,923 --> 01:16:32,954
<i>Some people have a problem
with that word.</i>

1176
01:16:32,955 --> 01:16:34,891
<i>But it sounds good.
It's not bad.</i>

1177
01:16:34,892 --> 01:16:37,120
I'm sorry, what is she doing?
What is she doing?

1178
01:16:37,121 --> 01:16:39,258
<i>Why is your hand
to your face like that?</i>

1179
01:16:39,259 --> 01:16:40,848
<i>Are you playful?</i>

1180
01:16:41,690 --> 01:16:43,821
It's... Stop. Stop.

1181
01:16:43,822 --> 01:16:46,255
Sorry.

1182
01:16:48,350 --> 01:16:50,890
Stop. Stop, stop. Sorry.

1183
01:16:50,891 --> 01:16:53,090
I'm sorry. I have one--

1184
01:16:53,091 --> 01:16:55,824
- It's my rehearsal. Excuse me.
- I just need a moment.

1185
01:16:55,825 --> 01:16:57,987
- It's ridiculous.
- It's very important, okay?

1186
01:16:57,988 --> 01:17:00,615
Ambur, there's nothing
mischievous

1187
01:17:00,616 --> 01:17:03,287
- ...or sly or playful
- Go back into the dance.

1188
01:17:03,288 --> 01:17:05,484
- ...about any of this.
- Please go back to letter Q.

1189
01:17:05,485 --> 01:17:08,547
- You're not a sex kitten.
- Big letter Q with upbeat.

1190
01:17:08,548 --> 01:17:10,721
You're not happy
about this decision.

1191
01:17:10,722 --> 01:17:12,485
We take it with an upbeat.

1192
01:17:12,486 --> 01:17:15,120
This is not something that
you're taking pleasure from.

1193
01:17:15,121 --> 01:17:18,122
You did not
dance naked for your father

1194
01:17:18,123 --> 01:17:21,320
and allow yourself to be raped
by a gang of strangers

1195
01:17:21,321 --> 01:17:23,952
for some petulant little game.

1196
01:17:23,953 --> 01:17:25,616
You agreed to do
this crazy dance

1197
01:17:25,617 --> 01:17:28,653
because you desperately needed
to show John the Baptist

1198
01:17:28,654 --> 01:17:30,550
that you love him.

1199
01:17:30,551 --> 01:17:33,319
Right? And this monster
is taking advantage of that.

1200
01:17:33,320 --> 01:17:36,650
And your mother is just
standing there, watching.

1201
01:17:36,651 --> 01:17:40,557
You are taking this action
because you want to, somehow,

1202
01:17:40,558 --> 01:17:42,580
liberate yourself
from your father

1203
01:17:42,581 --> 01:17:45,155
and everything
that he represents.

1204
01:17:45,156 --> 01:17:48,822
You need John the Baptist's head
because you need to prove

1205
01:17:48,823 --> 01:17:51,617
that you are worthy
of being loved.

1206
01:17:51,618 --> 01:17:55,786
You're not just a plaything
for your father's dark need

1207
01:17:55,787 --> 01:17:57,490
that he has to fulfill.

1208
01:17:58,159 --> 01:18:01,925
This is something that you
now need to do for yourself.

1209
01:18:02,852 --> 01:18:04,384
Right?

1210
01:18:04,385 --> 01:18:07,117
Is it, is it gonna
make you feel better?

1211
01:18:07,118 --> 01:18:08,817
Is it gonna change anything?

1212
01:18:08,818 --> 01:18:10,580
You have no idea

1213
01:18:10,581 --> 01:18:12,655
what is going to come
of your actions.

1214
01:18:16,189 --> 01:18:17,721
Nothing is clear to you

1215
01:18:17,722 --> 01:18:19,282
right now except your pain.

1216
01:19:24,186 --> 01:19:25,716
<i>Dance for me.</i>

1217
01:19:27,327 --> 01:19:28,848
<i>Dance for me.</i>

1218
01:19:31,824 --> 01:19:33,892
<i>Suffer me to touch thy body.</i>

1219
01:19:45,354 --> 01:19:47,189
<i>The moon
has a strange look tonight.</i>

1220
01:19:47,856 --> 01:19:49,387
<i>Hasn't she a strange look?</i>

1221
01:20:30,185 --> 01:20:31,951
<i>Keep following me.</i>

1222
01:20:31,952 --> 01:20:34,156
<i>Keep following my voice.</i>

1223
01:20:40,827 --> 01:20:42,815
<i>Keep coming, keep coming,
keep coming.</i>

1224
01:21:27,253 --> 01:21:30,989
<i>Slowly, slowly
you start to collapse.</i>

1225
01:21:30,990 --> 01:21:33,689
<i>And as you're doing that,
you hear my words</i>

1226
01:21:34,291 --> 01:21:36,892
<i>and you remember these words.
They make you feel safe.</i>

1227
01:21:47,156 --> 01:21:49,123
Why would you ask Dimitra
to do that?

1228
01:21:49,124 --> 01:21:51,848
I'm sorry, I shouldn't have
to explain that to you, Paul.

1229
01:21:52,792 --> 01:21:55,320
It's always haunted me.
Okay?

1230
01:21:55,321 --> 01:21:58,152
- Okay. It's just so...
- It's what? Is it unnerving?

1231
01:21:58,153 --> 01:22:00,389
- It's-it's crazy.
- Yeah, it is crazy.

1232
01:22:01,158 --> 01:22:03,318
You know what's even crazier?
I told Dimitra

1233
01:22:03,319 --> 01:22:05,548
that I was okay with
what you guys were doing

1234
01:22:05,549 --> 01:22:07,991
as long as she did
this one thing for me.

1235
01:22:12,023 --> 01:22:13,586
And you were
sincere about that?

1236
01:22:14,322 --> 01:22:17,584
That if-if she does that
to the painting, then...

1237
01:22:19,125 --> 01:22:21,189
then you're cool with
what's happening between us.

1238
01:22:26,294 --> 01:22:28,485
Okay. Um...

1239
01:22:29,654 --> 01:22:31,555
Okay.

1240
01:22:31,556 --> 01:22:33,518
Can you see that, Margot?

1241
01:22:34,623 --> 01:22:36,848
Wh... Oh, dear.

1242
01:22:38,188 --> 01:22:40,354
What's happened
to Harold's face?

1243
01:22:42,222 --> 01:22:43,991
Your daughter
asked me to do that.

1244
01:22:45,720 --> 01:22:47,255
Why?

1245
01:22:48,321 --> 01:22:50,925
Not sure, Margot.
She didn't explain.

1246
01:22:51,690 --> 01:22:53,321
So, why did you do it?

1247
01:22:57,886 --> 01:22:59,584
Because.

1248
01:22:59,585 --> 01:23:02,815
She doesn't want to see his face
anymore when she comes to visit.

1249
01:23:08,721 --> 01:23:10,446
So, um...

1250
01:23:10,447 --> 01:23:12,057
can you think of
a reason why?

1251
01:23:16,157 --> 01:23:19,116
Jeanie thinks
that Harold was a bad man.

1252
01:23:19,117 --> 01:23:21,024
Why?

1253
01:23:22,393 --> 01:23:24,281
He loved her.

1254
01:23:24,282 --> 01:23:25,892
What's wrong with that?

1255
01:23:29,392 --> 01:23:31,518
He loved her too much.

1256
01:23:37,450 --> 01:23:39,391
What does that mean?

1257
01:23:39,392 --> 01:23:40,991
What does that mean?

1258
01:23:46,389 --> 01:23:48,925
You can leave the painting
like that if you want.

1259
01:23:56,049 --> 01:23:57,650
I hurt you.

1260
01:24:07,891 --> 01:24:09,548
How can you expect me
to agree?

1261
01:24:09,549 --> 01:24:11,248
Because, Rachel,
you're gonna get to sing

1262
01:24:11,249 --> 01:24:13,415
with a real orchestra.

1263
01:24:13,416 --> 01:24:16,051
This is what you
always dreamed of. Shit.

1264
01:24:16,719 --> 01:24:19,423
It's blackmail, Clea.
You've blackmailed the company

1265
01:24:19,424 --> 01:24:21,150
into letting me perform.

1266
01:24:21,151 --> 01:24:22,991
I've discussed it with Ambur

1267
01:24:23,790 --> 01:24:25,321
and she's agreed to it.

1268
01:24:26,155 --> 01:24:27,922
- Well, that's even worse.
- Why?

1269
01:24:27,923 --> 01:24:30,319
- Is she still getting paid?
- Well, I mean...

1270
01:24:30,320 --> 01:24:33,057
normally it would go to you,
but, in this case...

1271
01:24:34,223 --> 01:24:35,921
But, we'll, just, uh,
pay her something.

1272
01:24:35,922 --> 01:24:37,581
No, we didn't get into
to those details.

1273
01:24:37,582 --> 01:24:39,820
- Like a kickback?
- No, it's not like that.

1274
01:24:39,821 --> 01:24:41,888
Or go back
and extort more.

1275
01:24:41,889 --> 01:24:43,483
Okay, why are you
looking at this

1276
01:24:43,484 --> 01:24:45,386
as though I've done something,
like, criminal?

1277
01:24:45,387 --> 01:24:47,892
Because it's really
the only way to see it, Clea.

1278
01:24:49,552 --> 01:24:52,049
Maybe you even planned it
from the beginning.

1279
01:24:56,617 --> 01:24:58,551
Rachel, how could you
say that to me?

1280
01:24:59,958 --> 01:25:03,121
He made a pass at me.

1281
01:25:03,122 --> 01:25:08,024
I didn't plan that.
I said stop and he didn't.

1282
01:25:10,324 --> 01:25:12,718
- And you taped it all.
- Yes, because the opera company

1283
01:25:12,719 --> 01:25:14,716
told me to.

1284
01:25:16,322 --> 01:25:18,651
And he knew
that the camera was on him?

1285
01:25:18,652 --> 01:25:20,415
Yes.

1286
01:25:20,416 --> 01:25:22,150
He was aware
that he was being taped?

1287
01:25:22,151 --> 01:25:24,086
Yes. I just told you that.

1288
01:25:24,087 --> 01:25:26,148
Oh, my God.
You sound just like them.

1289
01:25:40,317 --> 01:25:42,156
Rachel...

1290
01:25:43,625 --> 01:25:46,749
I am doing this...
for you.

1291
01:25:48,888 --> 01:25:50,650
It's not about me.

1292
01:25:51,523 --> 01:25:53,050
Clea...

1293
01:25:53,051 --> 01:25:55,555
It's because I love you.

1294
01:25:55,556 --> 01:25:57,222
How can you say that?

1295
01:25:59,854 --> 01:26:01,485
He attacked you.

1296
01:26:02,492 --> 01:26:03,988
You-you don't feel

1297
01:26:03,989 --> 01:26:06,052
- ...anything about that?
- Of course I do.

1298
01:26:06,053 --> 01:26:08,416
You knew
the camera was on him.

1299
01:26:08,417 --> 01:26:11,588
You knew that you could
use his actions

1300
01:26:11,589 --> 01:26:13,155
to frame him and, then,

1301
01:26:13,156 --> 01:26:16,119
the whole time it's happening
you-you have a plan?

1302
01:26:16,120 --> 01:26:18,387
No, the plan
didn't occur to me until

1303
01:26:18,987 --> 01:26:21,321
after it happened.

1304
01:26:25,523 --> 01:26:27,388
Clea...

1305
01:26:28,123 --> 01:26:31,024
what you are proposing to do
is wrong.

1306
01:26:34,384 --> 01:26:35,925
What are you going to do?

1307
01:26:37,284 --> 01:26:38,815
With the recording?

1308
01:26:54,821 --> 01:26:56,580
I don't know.

1309
01:26:56,581 --> 01:26:58,288
Shouldn't we
go back to the opening?

1310
01:26:58,289 --> 01:27:00,749
It's only a five-minute walk.
We can head out really soon.

1311
01:27:01,616 --> 01:27:03,118
Right, you have to
take a bow.

1312
01:27:03,119 --> 01:27:05,092
Yeah, I have to
take my big bow.

1313
01:27:05,960 --> 01:27:07,917
I just want to take a moment
to celebrate with you.

1314
01:27:07,918 --> 01:27:09,518
Just the two of us.

1315
01:27:11,950 --> 01:27:14,892
I had a dream last night
that I got to play the part.

1316
01:27:16,024 --> 01:27:17,892
Like one of those
anxiety dreams?

1317
01:27:19,459 --> 01:27:20,957
What do you mean?

1318
01:27:20,958 --> 01:27:23,087
Like when you open your mouth
and nothing comes out

1319
01:27:23,088 --> 01:27:24,889
or you're late for an exam
or you don't know

1320
01:27:24,890 --> 01:27:26,487
...the answers to stuff.

1321
01:27:26,488 --> 01:27:28,083
Ooh. Incredible.

1322
01:27:28,084 --> 01:27:29,947
No, I, uh, I sang well.

1323
01:27:29,948 --> 01:27:32,520
It's not my house.
Well, that's unsurprising.

1324
01:27:33,122 --> 01:27:34,654
Good for you.

1325
01:27:35,223 --> 01:27:37,555
Even after I lost my head,
I kept singing.

1326
01:27:37,556 --> 01:27:39,950
Really? That's handy.

1327
01:27:42,783 --> 01:27:45,149
It was strange.

1328
01:27:45,150 --> 01:27:46,917
Yeah, I bet. Cheers.

1329
01:27:50,321 --> 01:27:52,057
It's the toughest part
of the opera.

1330
01:27:52,853 --> 01:27:54,383
What?

1331
01:27:54,384 --> 01:27:57,281
She sings at the head
way too long

1332
01:27:57,282 --> 01:27:58,892
before she kisses it.

1333
01:28:01,818 --> 01:28:03,991
Well, there's nothing we can
really do about that now.

1334
01:28:12,551 --> 01:28:15,090
I wanna kiss thy lips,
John the Baptist.

1335
01:28:20,526 --> 01:28:22,057
I will not look at thee.

1336
01:28:23,525 --> 01:28:25,156
Thou art accursed.

1337
01:28:27,688 --> 01:28:29,222
Okay.

1338
01:28:31,057 --> 01:28:33,057
It is of thy hair
that I am enamoured.

1339
01:28:37,085 --> 01:28:38,683
There is nothing in the world

1340
01:28:40,283 --> 01:28:42,189
like your hair.

1341
01:28:42,955 --> 01:28:45,017
When the moon hides her face.

1342
01:28:45,652 --> 01:28:48,090
When the stars are afraid.

1343
01:28:50,152 --> 01:28:51,683
Let me touch thy hair.

1344
01:29:27,053 --> 01:29:28,584
Can you fill this?

1345
01:29:31,722 --> 01:29:33,255
What is it?

1346
01:30:37,990 --> 01:30:39,481
I thought we had
an understanding.

1347
01:30:39,482 --> 01:30:41,723
- We did.
- What, she went ahead anyway?

1348
01:30:41,724 --> 01:30:44,249
- Obviously.
- Is this already online?

1349
01:30:44,250 --> 01:30:45,848
Yeah, that's how I saw it.

1350
01:31:43,318 --> 01:31:44,954
I apologized after this

1351
01:31:44,955 --> 01:31:46,885
and I don't know
what else to do, I-I-I...

1352
01:31:46,886 --> 01:31:49,053
Stop. It's done. Enough.

1353
01:31:52,983 --> 01:31:54,584
But, uh...

1354
01:31:55,660 --> 01:31:57,848
do I still take
the curtain call?

1355
01:33:14,116 --> 01:33:16,892
<i>An enraged princess
who would extract her price.</i>

1356
01:33:31,158 --> 01:33:33,551
<i>Her stepfather begs her
to change her mind.</i>

1357
01:33:35,485 --> 01:33:37,848
<i>I know I have sworn an oath,
he says.</i>

1358
01:33:39,987 --> 01:33:41,518
<i>I have always loved.</i>

1359
01:33:42,958 --> 01:33:44,925
<i>Perhaps I have
loved you too much.</i>

1360
01:34:03,325 --> 01:34:06,189
<i>The conductor leaves his podium
and finds his way to the stage.</i>

1361
01:34:07,354 --> 01:34:09,420
<i>As the curtain rises,
Salome is there.</i>

1362
01:34:10,023 --> 01:34:11,551
<i>Her dress
splattered in blood.</i>

1363
01:34:12,884 --> 01:34:15,683
<i>She waves her red-stained hands
to the cheering crowd.</i>

1364
01:34:16,860 --> 01:34:19,247
<i>She expresses her gratitude
to the musicians</i>

1365
01:34:19,248 --> 01:34:20,848
<i>in the pit below.</i>

1366
01:34:21,789 --> 01:34:23,323
<i>I'm taping this all</i>

1367
01:34:23,991 --> 01:34:25,588
<i>fully aware
that I'm supposed to be</i>

1368
01:34:25,589 --> 01:34:27,150
<i>backstage now as well.</i>

1369
01:34:33,354 --> 01:34:34,885
<i>I pan my camera
back to the stage</i>

1370
01:34:34,886 --> 01:34:36,449
<i>and see Salome gesturing</i>

1371
01:34:36,450 --> 01:34:38,749
<i>for the conductor
to take his applause.</i>

1372
01:34:40,956 --> 01:34:42,716
<i>This is where
I'm supposed to now be.</i>

1373
01:34:46,458 --> 01:34:47,981
<i>Taking my bow.</i>

1374
01:34:48,716 --> 01:34:50,255
<i>But they realize
that I'm a no-show.</i>

1375
01:34:55,388 --> 01:34:57,485
<i>They're still applauding
for you, Charles.</i>

1376
01:34:59,892 --> 01:35:01,413
<i>Even with
all the changes I've made.</i>

1377
01:35:21,857 --> 01:35:23,390
Will mine be ready in time?

1378
01:35:26,885 --> 01:35:28,420
No.

1379
01:35:29,056 --> 01:35:30,922
We'll have to use
his head tonight.

1380
01:35:30,923 --> 01:35:32,820
That's a bit of a stretch.

1381
01:35:32,821 --> 01:35:34,386
Well, we don't have a choice.

1382
01:35:34,387 --> 01:35:36,892
We're gonna work on yours,
but it'll take a while.

1383
01:35:37,960 --> 01:35:40,290
We should have it ready
for the recording, though.

1384
01:35:40,291 --> 01:35:41,892
The recording?

1385
01:35:42,726 --> 01:35:44,653
So, I'll be doing
the broadcast?

1386
01:35:47,456 --> 01:35:48,983
Wow.

1387
01:35:49,518 --> 01:35:51,255
You're very lucky.

1388
01:35:54,526 --> 01:35:56,057
What if I'm terrible?

1389
01:35:58,023 --> 01:35:59,548
What if I can't see
the conductor?

1390
01:35:59,549 --> 01:36:01,485
You know, the whole thing
with the blindfold.

1391
01:36:02,187 --> 01:36:03,749
The blindfold's see-through.

1392
01:36:06,525 --> 01:36:08,222
No, you'll be amazing.

1393
01:36:09,784 --> 01:36:12,090
I know how seriously
you and Rachel were preparing.

1394
01:36:14,692 --> 01:36:16,222
I'd prefer to do it with her.

1395
01:36:16,986 --> 01:36:18,490
With Rachel.

1396
01:36:18,491 --> 01:36:20,749
Well, that's not an option.

1397
01:36:37,294 --> 01:36:38,817
I'm sorry.

1398
01:36:39,353 --> 01:36:41,222
- I didn't mean to--
- No, it's okay.

1399
01:36:47,021 --> 01:36:49,580
I can imagine how brilliant

1400
01:36:49,581 --> 01:36:51,387
you and Rachel
would've been together.

1401
01:36:56,683 --> 01:36:58,651
And she's gonna get
her chance too.

1402
01:36:58,652 --> 01:37:00,255
One day.

1403
01:37:04,617 --> 01:37:06,120
<i>From our conversation</i>

1404
01:37:06,121 --> 01:37:07,925
<i>she knew that a sculpture
wouldn't do.</i>

1405
01:37:09,451 --> 01:37:11,251
<i>That a cast
was more accurate.</i>

1406
01:37:11,252 --> 01:37:14,456
- Ready?
<i>- Even if it was more invasive.</i>

1407
01:37:18,455 --> 01:37:20,919
Okay, keep your eyes closed.
Just keep 'em closed.

1408
01:37:20,920 --> 01:37:22,584
- Don't open them.
- Why not?

1409
01:37:23,187 --> 01:37:24,722
Because some of the plaster

1410
01:37:24,723 --> 01:37:26,282
might have stuck
to your eyelashes

1411
01:37:26,283 --> 01:37:28,257
and you don't
want it to hurt.

1412
01:37:28,258 --> 01:37:29,848
No, I don't.

1413
01:37:33,020 --> 01:37:34,551
Little bit more.

1414
01:37:37,819 --> 01:37:39,354
Okay.

1415
01:37:40,053 --> 01:37:42,189
Now, open them slowly.

1416
01:37:44,226 --> 01:37:45,880
Mmm.

1417
01:37:45,881 --> 01:37:49,419
<i>She stares at his face
with a sense of accomplishment.</i>

1418
01:37:50,617 --> 01:37:52,650
<i>Proud of how
she's created this...</i>

1419
01:37:53,351 --> 01:37:55,387
<i>most magical of mirrors.</i>

1420
01:38:02,016 --> 01:38:05,089
<i>Herodias sings that Salome
has made the right choice.</i>

1421
01:38:05,090 --> 01:38:07,286
<i>Finally, after years
of witnessing her husband</i>

1422
01:38:07,287 --> 01:38:09,281
<i>abuse her daughter,
she's ready to inflict</i>

1423
01:38:09,282 --> 01:38:10,892
<i>some crazy justice.</i>

1424
01:38:12,354 --> 01:38:14,520
<i>This is my interpretation,
Charles.</i>

1425
01:38:15,290 --> 01:38:17,090
<i>I have no idea
what you would've made of it.</i>

1426
01:38:19,859 --> 01:38:21,618
<i>As the empty bowl
is presented,</i>

1427
01:38:21,619 --> 01:38:24,156
<i>she has no more than a minute
to fill it with the fake blood.</i>

1428
01:38:24,857 --> 01:38:26,390
<i>The tricky part comes next.</i>

1429
01:38:27,059 --> 01:38:29,485
<i>She takes the prop,
places it under her arm.</i>

1430
01:38:30,619 --> 01:38:33,056
<i>Then, like a proud mother
nursing her child</i>

1431
01:38:33,057 --> 01:38:35,714
<i>she feeds the special formula
that looks so real</i>

1432
01:38:35,715 --> 01:38:38,057
<i>into the gaping wound
of the severed head.</i>

1433
01:38:38,992 --> 01:38:41,782
<i>She needs to fill the cavity
to capacity</i>

1434
01:38:41,783 --> 01:38:44,548
<i>so there's enough blood to drip
onto Salome's white dress</i>

1435
01:38:44,549 --> 01:38:47,281
<i>for the entire length
of her final aria.</i>

1436
01:38:55,483 --> 01:38:57,189
<i>He was so beautiful to her...</i>

1437
01:38:59,057 --> 01:39:00,584
<i>that if he had only
looked at her,</i>

1438
01:39:01,449 --> 01:39:02,991
<i>he would've loved her too.</i>

1439
01:39:04,559 --> 01:39:06,189
<i>That the mystery of love</i>

1440
01:39:07,650 --> 01:39:09,584
<i>is greater
than the mystery of death.</i>

1441
01:40:01,361 --> 01:40:02,892
Hi. How'd it go?

1442
01:40:03,559 --> 01:40:05,090
<i>It's still going.</i>

1443
01:40:05,958 --> 01:40:07,749
I would've loved
to have been there.

1444
01:40:08,884 --> 01:40:11,921
I'm in the dressing room now.
She's kissing my lips.

1445
01:40:17,288 --> 01:40:18,822
She just said
that the mystery of love

1446
01:40:18,823 --> 01:40:20,683
is greater than
the mystery of death.

1447
01:40:23,817 --> 01:40:26,387
She's about to say
that love has a bitter taste.

1448
01:40:27,856 --> 01:40:29,387
They're calling me to go.

1449
01:40:40,653 --> 01:40:44,090
<i>I have kissed
thy mouth, John the Baptist.</i>

1450
01:40:45,658 --> 01:40:47,991
<i>I have kissed thy mouth.</i>
