These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated: 1 00:00:08,111 --> 00:00:11,183 This is gravity was everywhere back then. 2 00:00:11,183 --> 00:00:14,428 It's a true story about this guy named Leonard Wood who, 3 00:00:14,428 --> 00:00:16,809 lived outside of Louisville, Kentucky. 4 00:00:16,809 --> 00:00:19,295 And when Leonard's wife Mary was diagnosed with cancer 5 00:00:19,295 --> 00:00:21,193 he decided he could build their house into 6 00:00:21,193 --> 00:00:25,370 a sort of healing machine that would save her life. 7 00:00:35,863 --> 00:00:39,246 Mary got sick about two years after their wedding. 8 00:00:39,246 --> 00:00:40,799 And Leonard, 9 00:00:40,799 --> 00:00:44,941 kept frantically building the house for the next 20 years. 10 00:00:45,838 --> 00:00:47,633 Before he fell of the roof, 11 00:00:47,633 --> 00:00:50,050 ended up in a nursing home, and he had to sell the house 12 00:00:50,050 --> 00:00:52,293 to cover his bills. 13 00:00:52,293 --> 00:00:54,295 And the guy who bought the house from Leonard 14 00:00:54,295 --> 00:00:55,641 knocked it down. 15 00:00:57,091 --> 00:00:59,645 Almost entirely because it was the only house on the block 16 00:00:59,645 --> 00:01:01,509 that didn't look like every other house 17 00:01:01,509 --> 00:01:03,063 on the block. 18 00:01:03,063 --> 00:01:04,891 But, I got to down there. 19 00:01:04,891 --> 00:01:06,307 To the house before it fell, 20 00:01:06,307 --> 00:01:07,757 and it was amazing. 21 00:01:07,757 --> 00:01:09,483 From the outside it looked relatively normal. 22 00:01:09,483 --> 00:01:11,174 It was big, it looked pretty well built, 23 00:01:11,174 --> 00:01:13,142 there were windows everywhere. 24 00:01:13,142 --> 00:01:16,076 But, the inside was randomly, chaotically filled up with 25 00:01:16,076 --> 00:01:18,423 rooms like, if you were standing in his living room 26 00:01:18,423 --> 00:01:20,494 the next room over was his bedroom. 27 00:01:20,494 --> 00:01:22,426 And his bedroom started half way up the living room 28 00:01:22,426 --> 00:01:23,945 door frame. 29 00:01:23,945 --> 00:01:25,188 You would have to put your hands on the floorboards 30 00:01:25,188 --> 00:01:29,158 to hoist yourself up into the bedroom. 31 00:01:29,158 --> 00:01:33,714 He had a laundry room with 23 foot high vaulted ceilings. 32 00:01:33,714 --> 00:01:35,957 Every stair was numbered. 33 00:01:35,957 --> 00:01:38,650 Every window was painted a different color. 34 00:01:38,650 --> 00:01:40,686 And he really thought this was going to work. 35 00:01:40,686 --> 00:01:42,378 He really was trying to build 36 00:01:42,378 --> 00:01:44,621 a healing machine for Mary. 37 00:01:46,277 --> 00:01:49,281 And I don't understand how he thought 38 00:01:49,281 --> 00:01:52,457 a lot of this stuff was going to work. 39 00:01:53,354 --> 00:01:55,356 I mean, I think I do now. 40 00:01:55,356 --> 00:01:57,186 But, when I was down there I couldn't figure out 41 00:01:57,186 --> 00:01:59,188 for the life of me what a 23 foot high tower 42 00:01:59,188 --> 00:02:03,606 for a laundry room could possibly do to save someone's life. 43 00:02:03,606 --> 00:02:07,506 Until you realize, that he was building towards God. 44 00:02:07,506 --> 00:02:11,614 All his stuff was in a house when we went down to film it. 45 00:02:11,614 --> 00:02:13,823 Still sitting there like we found the blueprints for his 46 00:02:13,823 --> 00:02:16,308 house and they were on cardboard. 47 00:02:16,308 --> 00:02:18,103 We found all his bank statements. 48 00:02:18,103 --> 00:02:20,209 He worked in a hardware store. 49 00:02:20,209 --> 00:02:22,142 In this hardware store. 50 00:02:23,695 --> 00:02:26,836 And he was completely broke. 51 00:02:26,836 --> 00:02:29,597 We found this box of tapes of him playing crazy people 52 00:02:29,597 --> 00:02:32,048 church music on the piano. 53 00:02:32,048 --> 00:02:33,531 He'd announce a song and he'd say 54 00:02:33,531 --> 00:02:36,086 this one's called Angels On High. 55 00:02:36,086 --> 00:02:39,573 And then just bang on the piano for 15 or 20 or 40 minutes. 56 00:02:39,573 --> 00:02:43,093 Entire sides of tapes and it was horrible. 57 00:02:45,165 --> 00:02:47,477 Crazy people church music. 58 00:02:47,477 --> 00:02:50,963 Like an Appalachian felonious monk kind of thing. 59 00:02:50,963 --> 00:02:52,517 But, horrible. 60 00:02:52,517 --> 00:02:55,175 And his bank statements. 61 00:02:55,175 --> 00:02:57,970 He had about 17 cents in the bank almost all the time. 62 00:02:57,970 --> 00:03:01,767 And the friend who was down their filming with me looked 63 00:03:01,767 --> 00:03:04,977 at me and said, "You know Brent no one is ever going to care 64 00:03:04,977 --> 00:03:07,980 how much money you had in the bank in 1987". 65 00:03:07,980 --> 00:03:11,225 And that was a really mighty thing to hear somebody say. 66 00:03:11,225 --> 00:03:13,262 Because I was completely broke at the time. 67 00:03:13,262 --> 00:03:15,643 And I was like yeah, that's it, that's exactly it. 68 00:03:15,643 --> 00:03:18,198 You're never going to die from running out of money. 69 00:03:18,198 --> 00:03:20,752 And you're never going to die from running out of energy. 70 00:03:20,752 --> 00:03:23,548 Until you do then it's not your problem anymore. 71 00:03:23,548 --> 00:03:26,206 Then I decided to make this film about Leonard. 72 00:03:26,206 --> 00:03:29,485 I rebuilt his house behind my barn in Pennsylvania 73 00:03:29,485 --> 00:03:31,038 full scale. 74 00:03:31,038 --> 00:03:32,660 And made this film about him and just running everything 75 00:03:32,660 --> 00:03:36,216 down to zero to leave something wonderful behind. 76 00:03:36,216 --> 00:03:39,219 Which, is exactly, what Leonard did. 77 00:04:25,610 --> 00:04:27,267 Mary lived in her mom's house. 78 00:04:27,267 --> 00:04:30,304 In the house where she grew up her entire life. 79 00:04:30,304 --> 00:04:33,238 It was an old, really pretty, sort of decrepit 80 00:04:33,238 --> 00:04:34,688 farm house. 81 00:04:34,688 --> 00:04:36,828 And when she met Leonard she was 27 years old. 82 00:04:36,828 --> 00:04:40,210 And where are going to start with the story right there. 83 00:04:40,210 --> 00:04:42,523 Right after Mary's mom died. 84 00:05:01,128 --> 00:05:02,509 And this is Mary. 85 00:05:51,316 --> 00:05:54,250 Mary, I'll try to describe real quick here why 86 00:05:54,250 --> 00:05:56,597 Leonard would fall in love with Mary. 87 00:05:56,597 --> 00:05:59,082 She had about 100 bird houses out in the woods. 88 00:05:59,082 --> 00:06:01,464 Each one filled with a different family of birds. 89 00:06:01,464 --> 00:06:04,225 And when they are ready Mary is an egg robber. 90 00:06:04,225 --> 00:06:06,469 She takes a couple eggs from each nest and sells them 91 00:06:06,469 --> 00:06:09,092 at a table in the outside section of Renningers Market 92 00:06:09,092 --> 00:06:10,646 down the road 93 00:06:10,646 --> 00:06:11,992 from my house there. 94 00:06:11,992 --> 00:06:14,097 You need someone who makes you laugh. 95 00:06:14,097 --> 00:06:16,168 Who's willing to dance, who even likes to dance. 96 00:06:16,168 --> 00:06:18,516 You need someone around, 97 00:06:18,516 --> 00:06:21,691 your wife should be last person around who will still hug 98 00:06:21,691 --> 00:06:23,521 you when the repo man tells you it's time 99 00:06:23,521 --> 00:06:25,039 to move out of your car. 100 00:06:25,039 --> 00:06:29,181 And this is long before that kind of thing though. 101 00:06:29,181 --> 00:06:31,011 Laughter and sex. 102 00:06:31,011 --> 00:06:33,185 But, not at the same time. 103 00:06:34,635 --> 00:06:36,637 I know that's debatable. 104 00:07:09,359 --> 00:07:10,568 Alright, ready. 105 00:09:22,389 --> 00:09:24,736 He can't stop thinking about her. 106 00:09:24,736 --> 00:09:26,635 So, he calls her. 107 00:09:26,635 --> 00:09:30,224 And invites her over for dinner that night. 108 00:09:43,790 --> 00:09:46,068 I built the house myself. 109 00:09:46,931 --> 00:09:49,105 Yeah, yeah I could tell. 110 00:09:50,590 --> 00:09:52,868 Conversation was awkward. 111 00:10:01,393 --> 00:10:03,188 We can't allow the carrier pigeons in, 112 00:10:03,188 --> 00:10:06,467 even the one's that were on the medals during the war. 113 00:10:06,467 --> 00:10:08,124 Is green tea okay? 114 00:10:09,885 --> 00:10:11,058 That's fine. 115 00:10:14,096 --> 00:10:16,477 Also, we killed all the turkeys. 116 00:10:16,477 --> 00:10:19,515 We were testing the sound barrier and all the turkeys 117 00:10:19,515 --> 00:10:21,793 had heart attacks because they were so scared 118 00:10:21,793 --> 00:10:23,277 and they all died. 119 00:10:23,277 --> 00:10:25,245 All over the place, all over the fields. 120 00:10:25,245 --> 00:10:26,902 Everywhere, just dead turkeys, 121 00:10:26,902 --> 00:10:28,524 every single place. 122 00:10:30,284 --> 00:10:32,079 I don't build houses but, I build 123 00:10:32,079

in the car crash. 181 00:13:18,107 --> 00:13:20,765 We got in a car crash. 182 00:13:21,697 --> 00:13:22,905 But, maybe we have cancer? 183 00:13:22,905 --> 00:13:26,391 You must go on a lot of first dates. 184 00:13:26,391 --> 00:13:28,428 This isn't a date, 185 00:13:28,428 --> 00:13:30,016 this is a car crash. 186 00:13:30,016 --> 00:13:32,121 Well, it was a car crash. 187 00:13:34,330 --> 00:13:38,265 Did anybody die? 188 00:13:38,265 --> 00:13:39,888 Yeah. 189 00:13:39,888 --> 00:13:44,064 So, that date didn't go well either. 190 00:13:50,622 --> 00:13:54,799 No, that wasn't a date either. 191 00:14:01,875 --> 00:14:03,808 So it took awhile but, 192 00:14:03,808 --> 00:14:05,948 they got around to dinner. 193 00:14:10,056 --> 00:14:12,334 I schlep bird eggs. 194 00:14:12,334 -->

people eat them. 202 00:14:30,386 --> 00:14:32,250 I hope people eat them. 203 00:14:32,250 --> 00:14:34,665 I don't really know what else they would do with them. 204 00:14:34,665 --> 00:14:35,736 Paint them. 205 00:14:36,876 --> 00:14:39,119 You haven't seen the painted one's. 206 00:14:39,119 --> 00:14:42,812 There a dollar each or three for a dollar. 207 00:14:48,059 --> 00:14:48,888 Wow, 208 00:14:54,963 --> 00:14:57,206 I never knew anybody who collected bird eggs 209 00:14:57,206 --> 00:14:59,346 or sold bird eggs. 210 00:14:59,346 --> 00:15:00,589 Crows lay eggs? 211 00:15:04,179 --> 00:15:06,595 I think all birds lay eggs. 212 00:15:07,423 --> 00:15:08,252 Yeah. 213 00:15:09,529 --> 00:15:11,531 Are cardinal's eggs red? 214 00:15:14,672 --> 00:15:15,569 No, 215 00:15:15,569

small blue one's, there's big one's. 219 00:15:32,414 --> 00:15:35,520 There's even yellow one's with spots. 220 00:15:36,797 --> 00:15:38,489 And they all taste the same? 221 00:15:38,489 --> 00:15:41,423 No, they all taste completely different. 222 00:15:41,423 --> 00:15:42,355 Oh yeah? 223 00:15:42,355 --> 00:15:44,874 Yeah. 224 00:15:47,015 --> 00:15:51,191 What's the best tasting color? 225 00:15:53,159 --> 00:15:56,783 What there's not a lot of different colors? 226 00:16:33,095 --> 00:16:35,165 I could fix that for you. 227 00:17:29,324 --> 00:17:30,980 Giant wooden stars are glowing high over head. 228 00:17:30,980 --> 00:17:32,465 Look at the house, 229 00:17:32,465 --> 00:17:35,157 isn't all the lumber in every house 230 00:17:35,157 --> 00:17:37,056 at the job you had and whoever created that job. 231 00:17:37,056 --> 00:17:38,574 And maybe you created that job, 232 00:17:38,574 --> 00:17:41,094 and isn't it amazing all the stuff has to be built. 233 00:17:41,094 --> 00:17:42,371 Piece by piece. 234 00:17:43,614 --> 00:17:44,960 Years and years. 235 00:18:22,549 --> 00:18:23,688 And when I think of love, 236 00:18:23,688 --> 00:18:25,104 I think of Thomas Edison, 237 00:18:25,104 --> 00:18:26,381 for good reasons. 238 00:18:26,381 --> 00:18:28,590 I think of lights, wires in a series, a DC line, 239 00:18:28,590 --> 00:18:31,144 those giant generators cranking your legs, 240 00:18:31,144 --> 00:18:33,905 running what they can run blocks at a time. 241 00:18:33,905 --> 00:18:37,046 Edison could imagine the world lit before it could be lit. 242 00:18:37,046 --> 00:18:39,359 Everyone knew the bulbs around Menlo Park would 243 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:42,707 be beautiful, long before they saw them. 244 00:18:44,399 --> 00:18:46,125 And when they saw them, 245 00:18:46,125 --> 00:18:48,127 it turns out they couldn't imagine how beautiful 246 00:18:48,127 --> 00:18:49,300 they could be. 247 00:18:50,750 --> 00:18:52,476 I want sound recordings so I could hear your voice, 248 00:18:52,476 --> 00:18:56,204 I want X ray machines to see your works, I want a better 249 00:18:56,204 --> 00:18:59,862 battery, submarine, kinetoscopic memories. 250 00:18:59,862 --> 00:19:02,762 Human days run by electricity. 251 00:19:02,762 --> 00:19:04,971 Your a little dynamo churning and spewing within 252 00:19:04,971 --> 00:19:06,973 our own magnetic fields. 253 00:19:08,423 --> 00:19:11,633 So mostly, I think of the bulbs, wired and serious, 254 00:19:11,633 --> 00:19:15,982 because like love all the lights get dimmer as you go. 255 00:19:15,982 --> 00:19:17,846 And we went to the field behind your house 256 00:19:17,846 --> 00:19:20,124 and the dandelions floated around you 257 00:19:20,124 --> 00:19:22,437 like silent film projectors. 258 00:19:33,275 --> 00:19:37,452 I wish I lived in the late 19th century. 259 00:19:37,452 --> 00:19:40,731 When inventing and stealing where easy. 260 00:19:45,184 --> 00:19:46,219 I get you all 261 00:19:49,705 --> 00:19:51,051 the best things. 262 00:22:10,881 --> 00:22:13,262 It was a normal happy life. 263 00:22:13,262 --> 00:22:15,541 The years went by with unexcited lies 264 00:22:15,541 --> 00:22:16,990 and a impassioned honesty. 265 00:22:16,990 --> 00:22:19,027 I grew and shaved a beard, 266 00:22:19,027 --> 00:22:20,649 replaced light bulbs when they died, 267 00:22:20,649 --> 00:22:22,582 we had a gas leak that almost caused a fire. 268 00:22:22,582 --> 00:22:24,239 We never had kids and then 269 00:22:24,239 --> 00:22:25,309 you got sick. 270 00:24:28,225 --> 00:24:30,952 When Mary got sick it went downhill fast. 271 00:24:30,952 --> 00:24:32,125 She got worse, 272 00:24:33,610 --> 00:24:34,473 and worse. 273 00:25:11,820 --> 00:25:13,891 Soon a normal, residential lot outside 274 00:25:13,891 --> 00:25:15,617 of Louisville, Kentucky 275 00:25:15,617 --> 00:25:17,550 Leonard would decide he could build there house into a, 276 00:25:17,550 --> 00:25:21,520 build a house to save his wife's life. 277 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:23,383 And he went about to try and build 278 00:25:23,383 --> 00:25:25,524 a serious healing machine. 279 00:26:48,123 --> 00:26:50,678 Are you poisoning me Leonard? 280 00:26:53,232 --> 00:26:54,820 You would tell me if you are poisoning me, right? 281 00:26:54,820 --> 00:26:56,062 I'd tell you. 282 00:26:57,236 --> 00:26:59,583 Someone needs to check my birdhouses. 283 00:26:59,583 --> 00:27:02,828 Alright, I'll do it right after lunch. 284 00:27:08,661 --> 00:27:10,836 After lunch you should it eat. 285 00:27:10,836 --> 00:27:12,631 I did already. 286 00:27:12,631 --> 00:27:13,459 No you didn't. 287 00:27:13,459 --> 00:27:14,840 When did you eat? 288 00:27:19,465 --> 00:27:21,570 Three days ago. 289 00:27:24,573 --> 00:27:26,230 Why, what day is it? 290 00:27:28,232 --> 00:27:30,890 I'd say Wednesday or Thursday. 291 00:27:32,167 --> 00:27:33,755 You don't even know. 292 00:27:33,755 --> 00:27:36,620 What day do you want it to be? 293 00:27:36,620 --> 00:27:39,278 Sunday. 294 00:27:42,868 --> 00:27:43,869 Alright, it's Sunday. 295 00:27:43,869 --> 00:27:46,388 Why do you want it to be Sunday? 296 00:27:46,388 --> 00:27:48,287 You don't go to church. 297 00:27:49,115 --> 00:27:52,222 But, you do. 298 00:27:57,020 --> 00:27:58,746 There's to much noise. 299 00:27:58,746 --> 00:28:00,506 There's doctors calling. 300 00:28:06,685 --> 00:28:08,514 There's constant hammering. 301 00:28:08,514 --> 00:28:10,136 The house felt unsteady. 302 00:28:10,136 --> 00:28:11,759 Creaking and leaking, the tallest parts visibly 303 00:28:11,759 --> 00:28:14,002 wobbling in stronger winds. 304 00:28:17,143 --> 00:28:18,662 It wasn't working. 305 00:28:19,698 --> 00:28:21,354 Nothing was working. 306 00:28:26,981 --> 00:28:29,017 You had embellishments and those embellishments become 307 00:28:29,017 --> 00:28:30,985 the center of the story. 308 00:28:30,985 --> 00:28:35,161 And here's Leonard drawing the blueprints on cardboard. 309 00:28:45,206 --> 00:28:47,553 And this is the flood scene. 310 00:28:48,865 --> 00:28:52,420 Because memories go however you want them to be. 311 00:28:58,288 --> 00:29:00,739 It will stop and we'll just keep the windows open. 312 00:29:00,739 --> 00:29:01,947 It will dry out. 313 00:29:01,947 --> 00:29:03,431 Let me get back up on top there 314 00:29:03,431 --> 00:29:05,364 and get that rolling again. 315 00:29:05,364 --> 00:29:06,710 It's not 316 00:29:06,710 --> 00:29:09,886 doing any good just by itself. 317 00:29:09,886 --> 00:29:11,370 Okay. 318 00:29:11,370 --> 00:29:13,406 Yeah, I keep building it. 319 00:29:13,406 --> 00:29:15,063 I need it for power. 320 00:29:16,755 --> 00:29:20,137 I don't know if it's even half way. 321 00:29:29,906 --> 00:29:32,287 Is it even raining outside Leonard, 322 00:29:32,287 --> 00:29:34,565 or is it only raining in? 323 00:29:34,565 --> 00:29:38,431 I didn't build the roof so high so the clouds were 324 00:29:38,431 --> 00:29:39,260 under it. 325 00:29:40,882 --> 00:29:42,919 It's raining outside and coming in. 326 00:29:42,919 --> 00:29:46,025 It's coming in from underneath and it's flowing into 327 00:29:46,025 --> 00:29:46,854 the sides. 328 00:30:20,128 --> 00:30:21,302 Leonard is on the roof with pockets full 329 00:30:21,302 --> 00:30:22,130 of nails. 330 00:30:23,614 --> 00:30:26,203 He sees those nails as his problem making it hard enough. 331 00:30:26,203 --> 00:30:28,102 He can make them sink. 332 00:30:28,102 --> 00:30:29,724 He can make them disappear. 333 00:30:29,724 --> 00:30:31,864 And the wind is harder is up here. 334 00:30:31,864 --> 00:30:33,659 The wind is very much harder up here. 335 00:30:33,659 --> 00:30:35,730 His nails are falling down the roof and filling 336 00:30:35,730 --> 00:30:36,938 up the gutter. 337 00:30:36,938 --> 00:30:38,250 He's focusing on the little things to change 338 00:30:38,250 --> 00:30:39,803 the big picture. 339 00:30:39,803 --> 00:30:41,356 The details, what can we do with the big things anyway 340 00:30:41,356 --> 00:30:43,048 if we can't get our grasp on them. 341 00:30:43,048 --> 00:30:44,912 If we can't twist them around. 342 00:30:44,912 --> 00:30:46,672 If we can't get ahold of them and twist them around. 343 00:30:46,672 --> 00:30:50,158 That the end of his life melted by looking for work 344 00:30:50,158 --> 00:30:51,642 as a sailor. 345 00:30:51,642 --> 00:30:53,196 If vaulters jump and fall from a horse. 346 00:30:53,196 --> 00:30:54,714 If sinking in the Mississippi. 347 00:30:54,714 --> 00:30:57,062 Each nail representing a different offense. 348 00:30:57,062 --> 00:30:59,478 Grave digger originals are cast in the shadow over hill. 349 00:30:59,478 --> 00:31:01,169 It's raining cold water, it's cold. 350 00:31:01,169 --> 00:31:04,655 And the nails he put in the gutter blocked the rain water 351 00:31:04,655 --> 00:31:07,003 and caused a little flood. 352 00:31:07,003 --> 00:31:08,867 Children are fishing in the street. 353 00:31:08,867 --> 00:31:10,972 Each one catching a medium sized grey polluted walleye 354 00:31:10,972 --> 00:31:12,318 or trout. 355 00:31:12,318 --> 00:31:14,769 Each one reeling in a fish. 356 00:31:14,769 --> 00:31:17,185 Leonard's watching them. 357 00:31:17,185 --> 00:31:20,706 As a man raising flowers, conducting rain looks, 358 00:31:20,706 --> 00:31:22,742 looks in the water. 359 00:31:22,742 --> 00:31:24,468 A young Melville, ed, 360 00:31:25,676 --> 00:31:28,507 watching a small fish on the street. 361 00:31:36,411 --> 00:31:38,931 Cultivating occasional grief 362 00:31:38,931 --> 00:31:40,519 clarity 363 00:31:40,519 --> 00:31:41,830 he's building an ark 364 00:31:41,830 --> 00:31:43,660 he's building a miracle. 365 00:31:43,660 --> 00:31:46,352 What good is he if the electricity fails and can not 366 00:31:46,352 --> 00:31:47,595 collect the water. 367 00:31:47,595 --> 00:31:49,217 If he cannot save his wife. 368 00:31:49,217 --> 00:31:50,494 What good is he? 369 00:31:50,494 --> 00:31:51,771 I think his words finally got across. 370 00:31:51,771 --> 00:31:54,084 This is the power maybe God gives us. 371 00:31:54,084 --> 00:31:55,603 To communicate. 372 00:31:55,603 --> 00:31:59,572 There are never fish in the stream before it floods. 373 00:32:42,339 --> 00:32:45,273 But, Mary got weaker and worn down. 374 00:33:31,664 --> 00:33:32,976 I saw all these. 375 00:33:32,976 --> 00:33:34,357 Leonard wants me to say imagine but, 376 00:33:34,357 --> 00:33:35,841 I see them. 377 00:33:35,841 --> 00:33:37,739 Occasionally, groups of angels flying above people. 378 00:33:37,739 --> 00:33:39,845 Not always over me. 379 00:33:39,845 --> 00:33:44,436 Flying with these, some kind of, listening machines. 380 00:33:44,436 --> 00:33:47,611 Begging me to march out of this world. 381 00:33:56,448 --> 00:33:58,622 She see's angels with giant listening machines flying 382 00:33:58,622 --> 00:34:00,141 around. 383 00:34:00,141 --> 00:34:01,936 Systematically combing over the earth recording prayers 384 00:34:01,936 --> 00:34:04,387 to report back to God. 385 00:34:04,387 --> 00:34:06,768 The listening machines have phonograph horns coming 386 00:34:06,768 --> 00:34:08,286 out of the bottom that take sound in. 387 00:34:08,286 --> 00:34:10,772 And then one horn pointing up to God where the sound 388 00:34:10,772 --> 00:34:11,601 comes out. 389 00:34:12,981 --> 00:34:15,225 The lines in the cylinder are actual prayers. 390 00:34:15,225 --> 00:34:16,606 Like, why doesn't my mom come home anymore? 391 00:34:16,606 --> 00:34:18,090 Who's side are you on? 392 00:34:18,090 --> 00:34:19,471 I never ask for anything but, I really need to make 393 00:34:19,471 --> 00:34:22,232 the cheerleading squad this year. 394 00:34:23,406 --> 00:34:25,270 And this makes a lot of sense to me. 395 00:34:25,270 --> 00:34:27,478 That there are angels floating around filtering out 396 00:34:27,478 --> 00:34:30,757 the nonsense so God can concentrate. 397 00:34:30,757 --> 00:34:33,036 It would make sense to that they are limiting 398 00:34:33,036 --> 00:34:34,554 what he can hear. 399 00:34:34,554 --> 00:34:36,695 So, he doesn't know its gotten to bad. 400 00:34:36,695 --> 00:34:38,420 Whether the angels have been slacking on their work 401 00:34:38,420 --> 00:34:41,181 or God's in over his head either one, 402 00:34:41,181 --> 00:34:45,047 their filtering out some key stuff these days. 403 00:35:03,204 --> 00:35:05,033 Leonard's saying if I can just somehow, 404 00:35:05,033 --> 00:35:07,277 he sits Mary in the death of the duty chair 405 00:35:07,277 --> 00:35:08,796 in the water room. 406 00:35:08,796 --> 00:35:10,660 When he finishes it he tries to stick the needle into her. 407 00:35:10,660 --> 00:35:11,661 She wants to do it. 408 00:35:11,661 --> 00:35:13,180 I'll do it Leonard, 409 00:35:13,180 --> 00:35:14,733 without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sin. 410 00:35:14,733 --> 00:35:16,907 Somewhere in the back of his head he's becoming more and 411 00:35:16,907 --> 00:35:18,426 more exhausted. 412 00:35:18,426 --> 00:35:20,083 She must have done something wrong to get sick like that. 413 00:35:20,083 --> 00:35:21,464 It's the religion in him. 414 00:35:21,464 --> 00:35:23,259 I like songs that sound like old wars. 415 00:35:23,259 --> 00:35:25,468 I like the mountain goats, Walt Whitman's brain 416 00:35:25,468 --> 00:35:26,848 and Leonard Cohen. 417 00:35:26,848 --> 00:35:29,368 I love, love songs that sound like old battles. 418 00:35:29,368 --> 00:35:31,094 He's building more and more of the house. 419 00:35:31,094 --> 00:35:32,302 It starts getting complicated. 420 00:35:32,302 --> 00:35:33,510 He's numbering the stairs. 421 00:35:33,510 --> 00:35:35,029 He's on the roof building the steeple 422 00:35:35,029 --> 00:35:35,961 like laundry room. 423 00:35:35,961 --> 00:35:37,342 He's building towards God. 424 00:35:37,342 --> 00:35:38,550 Trying to call on him. 425 00:35:38,550 --> 00:35:39,516 Asking for his help. 426 00:35:39,516 --> 00:35:40,862 Asking for a miracle. 427 00:35:40,862 --> 00:35:43,279 And Mary, is carrying a massive weight. 428 00:35:43,279 --> 00:35:45,004 She's struggling, she's not looking to build 429 00:35:45,004 --> 00:35:46,696 a monument or heal anything. 430 00:35:46,696 --> 00:35:48,180 She's just bound here by some kind 431 00:35:48,180 --> 00:35:49,388 of otherworldly stone. 432 00:35:49,388 --> 00:35:51,045 She wants to release the weight. 433 00:35:51,045 --> 00:35:52,529 But, when she's looking to Leonard for support 434 00:35:52,529 --> 00:35:54,013 while she's looking to him for to carry something. 435 00:35:54,013 --> 00:35:55,946 She's seeing the man she loves run ragged and desperate. 436 00:35:55,946 --> 00:35:58,708 And trying to fix this with his own hands. 437 00:35:58,708 --> 00:36:01,262 And some things, nearly all the best things in this world 438 00:36:01,262 --> 00:36:03,126 are not made by hands. 439 00:36:16,243 --> 00:36:19,349 This is when I realized I was sick. 440 00:36:19,349 --> 00:36:21,627 This is the first time when I knew I was 441 00:36:21,627 --> 00:36:22,697 going to die. 442 00:36:24,182 --> 00:36:25,597 I'm going to die. 443 00:36:29,635 --> 00:36:31,430 Leonard sees light. 444 00:36:31,430 --> 00:36:33,777 He sees light where there isn't any. 445 00:36:33,777 --> 00:36:36,608 When we die or electricity recharging our hearts 446 00:36:36,608 --> 00:36:38,506 literally quits. 447 00:36:38,506 --> 00:36:41,371 Leonard sees light where there is no electricity. 448 00:36:41,371 --> 00:36:42,890 It's not delusion. 449 00:36:42,890 --> 00:36:44,650 That's why I love him. 450 00:36:44,650 --> 00:36:48,827 But, when Leonard sees no light there is no light. 451 00:37:30,834 --> 00:37:31,663 Uh. 452 00:37:34,700 --> 00:37:36,564 Is it daytime? 453 00:37:36,564 --> 00:37:38,704 Yeah, it's afternoon. 454 00:37:38,704 --> 00:37:42,708 I can get more light in here, it is kinda dim. 455 00:37:42,708 --> 00:37:47,265 I thought it might make your headache go away. 456 00:37:47,265 --> 00:37:49,784 To not have such bright light, 457 00:37:50,958 --> 00:37:54,341 shining on you when you're trying to rest. 458 00:37:56,446 --> 00:37:58,448 Leonard was a completely normal guy though. 459 00:37:58,448 --> 00:38:00,588 I don't want to give the impression that just because 460 00:38:00,588 --> 00:38:02,832 this section of his life was beautiful in any kind of way 461 00:38:02,832 --> 00:38:06,594 that he was anything other than a normal guy. 462 00:38:08,044 --> 00:38:10,184 And it's sad to imagine a normal hardworking guy, 463 00:38:10,184 --> 00:38:13,705 like Leonard, begging God for some kind of relief. 464 00:38:13,705 --> 00:38:16,121 Both for his wife and himself. 465 00:38:16,121 --> 00:38:19,227 But kneeling by your bed and talking into your hands 466 00:38:19,227 --> 00:38:20,677 will never be enough. 467 00:38:20,677 --> 00:38:22,472 And the thing is that if there was a God over us 468 00:38:22,472 --> 00:38:25,303 looking down, maybe laughing his ass off when 469 00:38:25,303 --> 00:38:27,650 it comes to communicate. 470 00:38:27,650 --> 00:38:29,997 Laughing at our attempts to invoke miracle, 471 00:38:29,997 --> 00:38:32,655 after miracle, after miracle, after miracle. 472 00:38:32,655 --> 00:38:34,519 And if there was a God, I like to think there is not, 473 00:38:34,519 --> 00:38:36,590 I think he'd empathize with Leonard 474 00:38:36,590 --> 00:38:38,419 and maybe grant his wish. 475 00:38:38,419 --> 00:38:40,559 After all what Leonard was asking him to do 476 00:38:40,559 --> 00:38:42,975 was something that happens all the time. 477 00:38:42,975 --> 00:38:45,012 We marvel at it at first every time 478 00:38:45,012 --> 00:38:46,565 and then accept it without notice. 479 00:38:46,565 --> 00:38:48,671 What Leonard was asking is much less complicated 480 00:38:48,671 --> 00:38:50,362 then what granted George in It's A Wonderful Life. 481 00:38:50,362 --> 00:38:53,192 The miracle Leonard was trying to invoke is a simple, 482 00:38:53,192 --> 00:38:55,367 mundane, everyday miracle. 483 00:38:55,367 --> 00:38:57,058 But, there are none. 484 00:38:57,058 --> 00:38:58,543 There are no miracles. 485 00:38:58,543 --> 00:39:00,476 We cannot forget our old task like online science. 486 00:39:00,476 --> 00:39:02,478 That's not how this works. 487 00:39:02,478 --> 00:39:04,031 That's not how these things end in this world. 488 00:39:04,031 --> 00:39:06,413 You sent out the doves with note attached and it does 489 00:39:06,413 --> 00:39:07,966 not come back. 490 00:39:07,966 --> 00:39:09,554 If there was a God, and I think there is not, 491 00:39:09,554 --> 00:39:11,556 claims of love extinguished and fully passed 492 00:39:11,556 --> 00:39:12,902 could be gone. 493 00:39:12,902 --> 00:39:14,455 If there is God, pushing us about, 494 00:39:14,455 --> 00:39:17,493 touching us with brief thoughts of the ending of all things. 495 00:39:17,493 --> 00:39:19,149 Shifting mountains and clouds. 496 00:39:19,149 --> 00:39:20,944 If there is a God, he is indifferent to us. 497 00:39:20,944 --> 00:39:23,361 And now when I look at the sky shifting clouds 498 00:39:23,361 --> 00:39:26,156 I think of God, bored, shaping them. 499 00:39:26,156 --> 00:39:27,744 Aimless, 500 00:39:27,744 --> 00:39:29,021 wander-less, 501 00:39:29,021 --> 00:39:30,816 whatever now, I don't want to do this again. 502 00:39:30,816 --> 00:39:32,508 I pray for looming and developing silence in darkness. 503 00:39:32,508 --> 00:39:35,718 But, wherever you find comfort, 504 00:39:35,718 --> 00:39:38,376 where ever your amazed, you should go. 505 00:39:38,376 --> 00:39:40,239 Even though I don't believe in God, 506 00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:42,103 I still like the bible. 507 00:39:42,103 --> 00:39:45,037 And when I think of Leonard, 508 00:39:45,037 --> 00:39:46,591 I think about Noah. 509 00:39:46,591 --> 00:39:48,765 The first sort of glaring omission in the bible 510 00:39:48,765 --> 00:39:51,009 has become when they built Jesus his cross. 511 00:39:51,009 --> 00:39:53,391 I gave up fully when only psychos think 512 00:39:53,391 --> 00:39:54,599 they can relate to him. 513 00:39:54,599 --> 00:39:56,394 And that was smart. 514 00:39:56,394 --> 00:39:58,396 They gave us a good guide for who to listen to. 515 00:39:58,396 --> 00:39:59,949 So far as community leaders and politicians but, 516 00:39:59,949 --> 00:40:02,434 the carpenter is pretty much a sheep 517 00:40:02,434 --> 00:40:04,332 with different shepherds. 518 00:40:04,332 --> 00:40:05,817 False idols and what not. 519 00:40:05,817 --> 00:40:07,266 There should have been a hail storm with splinters. 520 00:40:07,266 --> 00:40:08,785 This soft spot is six times the size of a hammer, 521 00:40:08,785 --> 00:40:11,236 a simple procedure made nearly impossible. 522 00:40:11,236 --> 00:40:12,962 There should of been something. 523 00:40:12,962 --> 00:40:15,689 Some kind of lesson piling in God's fucking unison. 524 00:40:15,689 --> 00:40:17,691 There is no reprieve for an heiress grave. 525 00:40:17,691 --> 00:40:20,487 And when I look in the face of psychos who relate 526 00:40:20,487 --> 00:40:23,524 to God and he has a crazy imagination for every 527 00:40:23,524 --> 00:40:25,146 working eye. 528 00:40:25,146 --> 00:40:26,976 There are crosses tilted towards the ground. 529 00:40:26,976 --> 00:40:28,874 Talk to my own wife life a crutch. 530 00:40:28,874 --> 00:40:30,600 What the fuck is this? 531 00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:32,637 Always on the polite. 532 00:40:32,637 --> 00:40:34,432 And Jesus Christ, just because you, 533 00:40:34,432 --> 00:40:37,780 you have blood on your hands doesn't mean you are a thing. 534 00:40:37,780 --> 00:40:39,437 I can't. 535 00:40:39,437 --> 00:40:42,543 The fact that Noah, the interesting thing to me about Noah, 536 00:40:42,543 --> 00:40:44,787 has nothing to do with the animals or how amazing 537 00:40:44,787 --> 00:40:46,651 it must feel to see tree covered hills just below 538 00:40:46,651 --> 00:40:48,446 an ocean surface. 539 00:40:48,446 --> 00:40:50,620 While holding and brushing the hall. 540 00:40:50,620 --> 00:40:52,346 When I think of Noah, I think of, 541 00:40:52,346 --> 00:40:53,589 gathering all that wood. 542 00:40:53,589 --> 00:40:55,245 The lumberyard, cutting down tree after tree, 543 00:40:55,245 --> 00:40:56,661 displacing boards. 544 00:40:56,661 --> 00:40:58,835 Cutting it clean enough to make a boat, an arc. 545 00:40:58,835 --> 00:41:01,286 A huge boat, he had some kind of divine hand behind him. 546 00:41:01,286 --> 00:41:03,115 Even with divine strength, that's crazy. 547 00:41:03,115 --> 00:41:06,705 There's a tall bunion ship but, the more I consider that 548 00:41:06,705 --> 00:41:08,535 actually gathering and planing. 549 00:41:08,535 --> 00:41:10,951 Hammering and soaking and bending the more 550 00:41:10,951 --> 00:41:12,711 I think that's the point. 551 00:41:12,711 --> 00:41:14,264 You find something and work at it. 552 00:41:14,264 --> 00:41:15,749 Spend your time building it. 553 00:41:15,749 --> 00:41:17,475 So, I imagine his boat 554 00:41:17,475 --> 00:41:18,959 resting, 555 00:41:18,959 --> 00:41:20,443 blocked on a hill, 556 00:41:20,443 --> 00:41:21,548 the thing his grasping at God 557 00:41:21,548 --> 00:41:23,791 or some kind of ultimate end guiding him. 558 00:41:23,791 --> 00:41:26,000 Miles and miles from sea, 559 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:28,106 an inward light pass that people 560 00:41:28,106 --> 00:41:29,866 do look to him. 561 00:41:29,866 --> 00:41:31,972 And it makes more sense to me to see God 562 00:41:31,972 --> 00:41:33,801 like Noah saw him. 563 00:41:33,801 --> 00:41:35,803 Somewhere trying to picture God as an England lighthouse. 564 00:41:35,803 --> 00:41:38,323 And our huge Appalachian hills over tumbling waves. 565 00:41:38,323 --> 00:41:40,256 Finding the shapes. 566 00:41:40,256 --> 00:41:42,638 Prison road work crews, motor vehicle operators, 567 00:41:42,638 --> 00:41:47,332 in the dark with freedom under that lighthouse beam. 568 00:41:47,332 --> 00:41:48,506 If God comes and if God is benevolently good, 569 00:41:48,506 --> 00:41:50,369 that is the rapture. 570 00:41:50,369 --> 00:41:52,786 That moment, that swimming and escaping, 571 00:41:52,786 --> 00:41:54,063 is the rapture. 572 00:43:16,766 --> 00:43:18,009 The truth is, 573 00:43:18,009 --> 00:43:19,597 the truth of this whole thing is, 574 00:43:19,597 --> 00:43:21,529 you have to build your own world. 575 00:43:21,529 --> 00:43:22,841 Everyone does it. 576 00:43:22,841 --> 00:43:24,118 All of us do it. 577 00:43:24,118 --> 00:43:25,948 From the richest Wall Street investor 578 00:43:25,948 --> 00:43:28,122 and medical venture capitalist. 579 00:43:28,122 --> 00:43:31,367 To the biggest nerd dropping a McFish into a deep fryer. 580 00:43:31,367 --> 00:43:32,679 All of us do it. 581 00:43:34,335 --> 00:43:35,613 And with that in mind, 582 00:43:35,613 --> 00:43:38,546 Mary decides to kill herself. 583 00:43:38,546 --> 00:43:40,376 She gets a grip on these things though. 584 00:43:40,376 --> 00:43:42,723 The most endearing trait in people is the feeling 585 00:43:42,723 --> 00:43:44,760 they've seen to much and gotten through. 586 00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:46,658 And Mary, she's seen enough at this point. 587 00:43:46,658 --> 00:43:49,005 And she marches to death with horns and church bells 588 00:43:49,005 --> 00:43:50,248 all around her. 589 00:43:54,562 --> 00:43:56,426 Mary has her last day with Leonard planned. 590 00:43:56,426 --> 00:43:59,084 She buys him a pet bird so he has some company. 591 00:43:59,084 --> 00:44:02,156 She wants to be sweet and exit on a great note for him. 592 00:44:02,156 --> 00:44:05,470 Leave him with a wonderful last memory. 593 00:44:05,470 --> 00:44:09,647 And he doesn't realize she is going to kill herself. 594 00:44:39,780 --> 00:44:41,299 Hello. 595 00:44:41,299 --> 00:44:42,783 Hey Leonard. 596 00:44:42,783 --> 00:44:44,889 How you feeling? 597 00:44:44,889 --> 00:44:45,717 Okay. 598

eggs? 629 00:46:10,768 --> 00:46:12,666 Oh yeah, will lay eggs. 630 00:46:14,944 --> 00:46:17,947 At least he'll tell you something. 631 00:46:36,621 --> 00:46:39,003 Maybe you can even build him a little house. 632 00:46:39,003 --> 00:46:41,660 I'm busy, one house at a time here. 633 00:46:41,660 --> 00:46:43,662 What kind of bird is it? 634 00:46:46,044 --> 00:46:47,287 I don't know. 635 00:46:47,287 --> 00:46:48,736 A black one. 636 00:46:48,736 --> 00:46:51,118 He looks more yellow to me. 637 00:46:52,706 --> 00:46:55,088 Has he laid any eggs yet for you? 638 00:46:55,088 --> 00:46:56,330 I don't know. 639 00:46:57,815 --> 00:47:00,265 Sometimes I think you buy a bird 640 00:47:00,265 --> 00:47:02,371 as a present for yourself. 641 00:47:02,371 --> 00:47:04,097 This one's

645 00:47:14,693 --> 00:47:18,836 I can only think of varnish and nails and shingles. 646 00:47:19,698 --> 00:47:21,079 How about Mary? 647 00:47:21,079 --> 00:47:22,598 And Mary, right. 648

know how chatty people get 659 00:47:54,009 --> 00:47:55,286 when there jealous. 660 00:47:55,286 --> 00:47:57,633 Make sure you cover his cage at night cuz. 661 00:47:57,633 --> 00:48:00,325 I fixed it, its not raining, 662 00:48:00,325 --> 00:48:02,293 it's dry and he's not going to get wet. 663 00:48:02,293 --> 00:48:03,846 I didn't mean that. 664 00:48:03,846 --> 00:48:05,883 He just doesn't like the light. 665 00:48:05,883 --> 00:48:08,299 Oh, should we make it dark? 666 00:48:09,714 --> 00:48:12,406 We can turn the lights off. 667 00:48:12,406 --> 00:48:14,892 Does the bird like a shield? 668 00:48:14,892 --> 00:48:16,410 Yeah. 669 00:48:16,410 --> 00:48:17,895 Really? 670 00:48:17,895 --> 00:48:20,690 Yeah, that's what you're supposed to do. 671 00:49:23,926 --> 00:49:26,032 She injects into her arm. 672 00:49:26,032 --> 00:49:28,655 ten cc's of fresh Kentucky air. 673 00:51:35,333 --> 00:51:37,784 It's not surprising exactly. 674 00:51:37,784 --> 00:51:39,682 We didn't see it coming 675 00:51:39,682 --> 00:51:41,788 and we weren't surprised. 676 00:51:43,514 --> 00:51:44,894 But, death is 677 00:51:44,894 --> 00:51:46,275 always hard to accept. 678 00:51:46,275 --> 00:51:48,864 The reality of seeing her body. 679 00:51:52,488 --> 00:51:53,731 Hold close the one's you love. 680 00:52:26,729 --> 00:52:28,973 And when the fuzz showed up 681 00:52:30,837 --> 00:52:32,908 because the neighbors got nervous 682 00:52:32,908 --> 00:52:35,013 when the house opened up. 683 00:52:36,567 --> 00:52:39,086 Leonard asked and then pleaded 684 00:52:43,298 --> 00:52:44,816 for him to go away 685 00:52:47,336 --> 00:52:50,270 and leave his wife behind with him. 686 00:52:56,034 --> 00:52:56,932 And he did. 687 00:52:58,244 --> 00:53:01,247 Overall, police are agreeable people. 688 00:53:02,662 --> 00:53:04,974 I feel the same way about cops as I do about criminals. 689 00:53:04,974 --> 00:53:09,151 If either one is in my house there's something wrong. 690 00:54:01,928 --> 00:54:03,688 And now Leonard's building the house 691 00:54:03,688 --> 00:54:04,689 for himself. 692 00:54:25,123 --> 00:54:27,816 He won't let her body leave the house. 693 00:54:27,816 --> 00:54:31,475 He won't let there be a burial or a funeral. 694 00:54:33,822 --> 00:54:36,652 The piano stopped working around when Mary got sick. 695 00:54:36,652 --> 00:54:40,311 And stars and the moon were all out there too 696 00:54:40,311 --> 00:54:42,002 just like before. 697 00:54:42,002 --> 00:54:45,005 But dark, wired to light but, unlit. 698 00:56:02,945 --> 00:56:05,983 I swear I would never ask for anything else if I got you. 699 00:56:05,983 --> 00:56:08,744 And I have never asked for anything else. 700 00:56:08,744 --> 00:56:11,333 And what I have, I desperately try to give away. 701 00:56:11,333 --> 00:56:14,854 And what I do have, I'm still trying to give away. 702 00:56:14,854 --> 00:56:16,511 And what I still have, 703 00:56:16,511 --> 00:56:18,375 I'm desperately trying to give away. 704 00:56:18,375 --> 00:56:20,411 Leonard can't bear to look at the birdhouses, 705 00:56:20,411 --> 00:56:22,896 he can't look at the dishes, the silverware, there dead. 706 00:56:22,896 --> 00:56:24,588 Exactly what time did she die? 707 00:56:24,588 --> 00:56:26,383 And what if I left before? 708 00:56:26,383 --> 00:56:27,867 I had a feeling. 709 00:56:27,867 --> 00:56:29,455 I'll never sleep right again. 710 00:56:29,455 --> 00:56:31,008 Exactly what time did she die? 711 00:56:31,008 --> 00:56:33,010 And she knew that there would be this kind of reaction 712 00:56:33,010 --> 00:56:34,356 when I knocked on the door to talk to her. 713 00:56:34,356 --> 00:56:36,254 How weird is it that your dead? 714 00:56:36,254 --> 00:56:37,911 He sits in the room and talks to Mary. 715 00:56:37,911 --> 00:56:39,430 How sad is it that your dead? 716 00:56:39,430 --> 00:56:41,121 Aren't you fucking sad about that? 717 00:56:41,121 --> 00:56:43,330 And I'm wondering if dying just hurt the outside of you, 718 00:56:43,330 --> 00:56:46,264 like some kind of clothes you wear. 719 00:56:48,474 --> 00:56:49,578 Probably not. 720 00:56:51,097 --> 00:56:52,616 But, here's where you leave me. 721 00:56:52,616 --> 00:56:56,343 I was changing the windshield wiper on your car 722 00:56:56,343 --> 00:56:57,828 when it hit me you were dead. 723 00:56:57,828 --> 00:57:00,002 I was fumbling, greasy and exhausted 724 00:57:00,002 --> 00:57:01,832 and I couldn't get it before that. 725 00:57:01,832 --> 00:57:02,660 I always, 726 00:57:03,627 --> 00:57:04,869 always, 727 00:57:04,869 --> 00:57:06,181 wanted to call you. 728 00:57:06,181 --> 00:57:07,389 How fucking sad is it that your dead? 729 00:57:07,389 --> 00:57:09,909 I never had a plan of racing satellites, 730 00:57:09,909 --> 00:57:11,635 arching comets, 731 00:57:11,635 --> 00:57:12,912 blocking light from different points of view. 732 00:57:12,912 --> 00:57:15,362 Eclipsing everywhere very high above us. 733 00:57:15,362 --> 00:57:17,226 And all that must be very, 734 00:57:17,226 --> 00:57:18,469 very beautiful. 735 00:57:21,438 --> 00:57:23,992 But, here is where you left me. 736 00:58:26,537 --> 00:58:28,056 He goes to the hospital because he's not really sure 737 00:58:28,056 --> 00:58:31,197 where you go to take care of funeral stuff. 738 00:58:31,197 --> 00:58:34,890 If you need a death certificate nulled first. 739 00:58:34,890 --> 00:58:37,099 He parks in the hospital paid parking lot. 740 00:58:37,099 --> 00:58:38,756 And when he leaves, 741 00:58:38,756 --> 00:58:41,587 he deposits 50 cents into the parking machine. 742 00:58:41,587 --> 00:58:44,106 And the little music comes on. 743 00:58:50,768 --> 00:58:52,218 And hits him. 744 00:58:52,218 --> 00:58:55,117 That its brutal that he's paying for this. 745 00:58:55,117 --> 00:58:56,705 Without Mary around to collect them, 746 00:58:56,705 --> 00:58:59,052 the birds in her tree houses are laying more eggs 747 00:58:59,052 --> 00:59:00,813 then they know what to do with. 748 00:59:05,507 --> 00:59:06,991 He still building obsessively. 749 00:59:06,991 --> 00:59:09,200 Just pounding nails into all the rooms of his house. 750 00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:12,618 For another 20 years, another 20 years, 751 00:59:12,618 --> 00:59:14,378 he wandered around that house 752 00:59:14,378 --> 00:59:15,862 tacking on walls. 753 00:59:15,862 --> 00:59:17,726 I remember one of the rooms had dropped ceiling tiles 754 00:59:17,726 --> 00:59:19,452 as wall paper. 755 00:59:19,452 --> 00:59:22,075 For 20 years and walking around Leonard's house 756 00:59:22,075 --> 00:59:23,698 all these beautiful little touches, 757 00:59:23,698 --> 00:59:25,044 the light bulb corners of the door frames, 758 00:59:25,044 --> 00:59:26,873 the carefully rounded moldings, 759 00:59:26,873 --> 00:59:28,634 and smooth old cloth wallpaper. 760 00:59:28,634 --> 00:59:30,152 The strange chicken weather vane, 761 00:59:30,152 --> 00:59:32,258 all the beautiful touches kind of made you marvel 762 00:59:32,258 --> 00:59:33,880 at the rest of the world too. 763 00:59:33,880 --> 00:59:35,157 And so I was reaching, I was looking, 764 00:59:35,157 --> 00:59:37,125 and the most massive thing I could think of, 765 00:59:37,125 --> 00:59:39,679 I always imagined outer space beaming. 766 00:59:39,679 --> 00:59:41,888 A hectic swirling mass like the ocean. 767 00:59:41,888 --> 00:59:43,580 So I rented all these films, 768 00:59:43,580 --> 00:59:45,133 I watched all this NASA footage. 769 00:59:45,133 --> 00:59:47,169 Hours and hours of it. 770 00:59:47,169 --> 00:59:48,826 And space is boring. 771 00:59:49,896 --> 00:59:52,174 It's really kind of boring. 772 00:59:55,488 --> 00:59:57,628 And I've been showing this film for awhile 773 00:59:57,628 --> 00:59:59,837 and I realize that I'm wrong about space 774 00:59:59,837 --> 01:00:03,082 because people started sending me photographs 775 01:00:03,082 --> 01:00:06,533 of like a solar flare, and a comet shaped 776 01:00:07,638 --> 01:00:10,192 like a dachshund and you know I realized that 777 01:00:10,192 --> 01:00:11,642 I'm wrong about space. 778 01:00:11,642 --> 01:00:13,161 That it's gorgeous 779 01:00:13,161 --> 01:00:14,541 and fascinating in a way that's far to large 780 01:00:14,541 --> 01:00:15,991 for me to comprehend. 781 01:00:15,991 --> 01:00:18,545 All that teaming, swirling mass is intermingling 782 01:00:18,545 --> 01:00:20,340 over such an enormous field 783 01:00:20,340 --> 01:00:23,516 and so unbelievable that I can't fathom it. 784 01:00:23,516 --> 01:00:25,483 But, I leave that part in there because, 785 01:00:25,483 --> 01:00:27,624 you know, I like to think Leonard was on to something. 786 01:00:27,624 --> 01:00:28,935 That our understanding of this stuff at this point 787 01:00:28,935 --> 01:00:31,420 is the equivalent of dipping a drinking glass 788 01:00:31,420 --> 01:00:32,629 into the ocean. 789 01:00:32,629 --> 01:00:33,871 Holding it up to light and saying, 790 01:00:33,871 --> 01:00:35,977 there is no life in there. 791 01:00:35,977 --> 01:00:38,635 Our nets just aren't big enough. 792 01:00:40,637 --> 01:00:42,052 And when Leonard died, the only thing in his 793 01:00:42,052 --> 01:00:44,571 safe deposit box was this letter 794 01:00:44,571 --> 01:00:46,643 he wrote to Mary in 1985. 795 01:00:47,644 --> 01:00:49,335 And Mary died in 1972, 796 01:00:49,335 --> 01:00:51,648 so 13 years after her death. 797 01:00:51,648 --> 01:00:53,719 And it says, Dear Wife Mary, 798 01:00:53,719 --> 01:00:55,237 I love you so. 799 01:00:55,237 --> 01:00:58,240 Please if you will let me hear from you darling. 800 01:00:58,240 --> 01:01:00,311 Perhaps, you can make some words appear through 801 01:01:00,311 --> 01:01:02,037 the written medium, like this. 802 01:01:02,037 --> 01:01:04,661 I won't be frightened to feel so close to you, 803 01:01:04,661 --> 01:01:05,800 loving you so much. 804 01:01:05,800 --> 01:01:07,008 I miss you more, 805 01:01:07,008 --> 01:01:07,974 all the time. 806 01:01:07,974 --> 01:01:09,493 Please, if no other way, 807 01:01:09,493 --> 01:01:11,081 maybe you could somehow allow yourself to manifest 808 01:01:11,081 --> 01:01:12,151 in my dreams. 809 01:01:13,428 --> 01:01:14,843 I miss you, I love you 810 01:01:14,843 --> 01:01:16,431 so very, very much. 811 01:01:26,441 --> 01:01:28,132 I have never wanted any release friend of mine 812 01:01:28,132 --> 01:01:30,963 restored to life since I reached manhood. 813 01:01:30,963 --> 01:01:32,309 I'm not one to argue with Mark Twain 814 01:01:32,309 --> 01:01:34,207 in any kind of way. 815 01:01:34,207 --> 01:01:36,554 And anyway, I don't think anyone wants to see 816 01:01:36,554 --> 01:01:39,143 the guest of Paul Bunyan still fucking shit up. 817 01:01:39,143 --> 01:01:40,317 Or Harry Houdini, 818 01:01:40,317 --> 01:01:41,732 floating like a balloon, 819 01:01:41,732 --> 01:01:44,908 tied to the Flat Iron Building with chains. 820 01:01:44,908 --> 01:01:48,325 Or doors slamming shut, I promise, 821 01:01:48,325 --> 01:01:49,706 I won't be frightened. 822 01:01:49,706 --> 01:01:51,949 I promise to not be afraid. 823 01:01:53,399 --> 01:01:56,022 I do wonder if Leonard gave up there at the end. 824 01:01:56,022 --> 01:01:57,403 The last time he tried to climb the roof 825 01:01:57,403 --> 01:01:59,370 with his hammer trying to convince God 826 01:01:59,370 --> 01:02:01,027 to send an angel with Mary in his arms 827 01:02:01,027 --> 01:02:02,270 back down to him. 828 01:02:02,270 --> 01:02:04,272 Or maybe send someone to bring him up to her. 829 01:02:04,272 --> 01:02:05,929 And saw the shepherd sleeping in the valley full 830 01:02:05,929 --> 01:02:07,102 of dead sheep. 831 01:02:10,727 --> 01:02:12,970 The shepherd stands up and tips his hat to Leonard. 832 01:02:12,970 --> 01:02:14,800 And Leonard, 833 01:02:14,800 --> 01:02:17,492 falls off the roof of the house. 834 01:02:20,702 --> 01:02:22,221 When he gives up on the miracle 835 01:02:22,221 --> 01:02:23,705 he stumbling with the hammer, 836 01:02:23,705 --> 01:02:25,776 fumbling it and chases it a little, 837 01:02:25,776 --> 01:02:29,953 kneeling, loses his balance, and falls of the roof. 838 01:02:35,510 --> 01:02:39,376 I feel the same way about God I feel about miracles, 839 01:02:44,622 --> 01:02:46,348 I would call on them. 840 01:02:51,353 --> 01:02:53,079 I would call on them. 841 01:02:58,567 --> 01:03:00,293 I would call on them. 842 01:03:01,363 --> 01:03:03,331 If I believed in them. 843 01:03:03,331 --> 01:03:04,711 If I believed in them, 844 01:03:04,711 --> 01:03:07,197 I'd be over and over let down. 845 01:03:12,961 --> 01:03:15,722 Gravity was everywhere back then. 61395
