Movie Dialogue Sample
00:29:55,022 --> 00:29:58,917
All writing is sacrifice.
286
00:30:05,633 --> 00:30:08,369
You know, in most movies I see...
287
00:30:08,469 --> 00:30:12,230
...the characters are just what they are,
characters in a movie.
288
00:30:12,330 --> 00:30:16,178
Nothing seems real.
Nothing is like how life really is.
289
00:30:17,711 --> 00:30:19,581
I don't disagree.
290
00:30:19,781 --> 00:30:22,051
Maybe it's just 'cause I travel a lot.
291
00:30:22,701 --> 00:30:26,071
You know, I watch what's going on around me.
292
00:30:26,421 --> 00:30:28,223
I watch people.
293
00:30:28,989 --> 00:30:30,826
I'm not a recluse.
294
00:30:31,426 --> 00:30:33,294
Must be it.
295
00:30:33,927 --> 00:30:35,730
You know...
296
00:30:37,297 --> 00:30:40,235
...I'd really like to read
one of your scripts.
297
00:30:40,335 --> 00:30:42,404
If that wouldn't be a problem.
298
00:30:45,906 --> 00:30:47,542
Okay.
299
00:30:47,642 --> 00:30:50,045
Yeah?
Yeah, I'll...
300
00:30:54,615 --> 00:30:56,295
All right...
301
00:30:56,395 --> 00:30:58,633
...this is the last one I wrote.
302
00:30:58,733 --> 00:31:01,723
My hail Mary pass to get something sold.
303
00:31:01,823 --> 00:31:03,658
Nobody wants it.
304
00:31:04,725 --> 00:31:06,552
My agent says it's crap.
305
00:31:07,429 --> 00:31:09,265
Under the Clock.
306
00:31:10,864 --> 00:31:12,200
Yeah.
307
00:31:12,300 --> 00:31:16,205
I think I've heard this title before.
Even the title, then.
308
00:31:18,465 --> 00:31:20,008
Yeah.
309
00:31:21,191 --> 00:31:22,994
I'll tell you what.
310
00:31:23,544 --> 00:31:26,181
I'll give you the opinion of the common man.
311
00:31:26,411 --> 00:31:30,436
It's gotta count for something, right?
It counts for more than my agent's.
312
00:31:31,586 --> 00:31:34,055
Yeah, yes, enjoy it, man.
313
00:31:55,342 --> 00:31:57,118
Good afternoon.
314
00:31:58,579 --> 00:32:00,381
How was your nap?
315
00:32:01,148 --> 00:32:03,751
Not good. Not good.
316
00:32:08,856 --> 00:32:10,883
Delias Kristianiae.
317
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:15,463
Black Butterfly, from Indonesia.
318
00:32:15,563 --> 00:32:17,332
Very rare.
319
00:32:17,432 --> 00:32:19,301
Very hard to catch.
320
00:32:19,701 --> 00:32:23,175
Ironic, really.
Ironic?
321
00:32:23,604 --> 00:32:26,474
Yeah, I had it done in prison.
322
00:32:42,990 --> 00:32:44,826
You looking for these?
323
00:32:45,326 --> 00:32:47,980
I needed to work on the shed,
I had to unlock it.
324
00:32:49,731 --> 00:32:51,600
You gonna work today?
325
00:32:52,100 --> 00:32:53,626
No.
326
00:32:54,199 --> 00:32:58,343
I'm not in the right frame of mind,
and I have to sell this house.
327
00:32:59,340 --> 00:33:01,977
Hard to work when you
got to worry about money.
328
00:33:05,012 --> 00:33:07,239
You know you have to do yourself a favor.
329
00:33:08,918 --> 00:33:10,551
What is that?
330
00:33:10,651 --> 00:33:12,487
You know...
331
00:33:13,454 --> 00:33:15,690
...you have to stop drinking.
332
00:33:15,790 --> 00:33:18,027
I mean, you gotta stop it cold.
333
00:33:20,228 --> 00:33:22,297
You could be a great writer.
334
00:33:22,697 --> 00:33:27,103
But your stories are not good enough,
and it's because of your drinking.
335
00:33:29,737 --> 00:33:34,343
You know, I think you just need
a good idea to jumpstart your career.
336
00:33:35,243 --> 00:33:37,779
You know, I was thinking
this morning, I got an idea.
337
00:33:37,879 --> 00:33:39,881
Of course you do.
No, really.
338
00:33:39,981 --> 00:33:42,183
I mean, I want you to hear it.
All right, look...
339
00:33:42,283 --> 00:33:44,986
...I know it'd be like God taking
advice from a lowly priest.
340
00:33:45,186 --> 00:33:48,023
I am listening, yes. All right.
341
00:33:48,123 --> 00:33:49,658
Okay.
342
00:33:50,158 --> 00:33:51,960
You tell our story.
343
00:33:54,529 --> 00:33:57,599
What story?
Our story.
344
00:33:57,699 --> 00:33:59,701
Okay, it goes like this.
345
00:34:00,101 --> 00:34:02,923
A writer travels to the U.S....
346
00:34:03,023 --> 00:34:08,070
...looking for inspiration, gets himself
a beautiful house in a remote area.
347
00:34:08,810 --> 00:34:10,315
And so...
348
00:34:11,045 --> 00:34:13,540
He's had some success...
349
00:34:13,977 --> 00:34:15,483
...short-lived.
350
00:34:15,583 --> 00:34:17,882
He can't write anymore, so...
351
00:34:17,982 --> 00:34:19,463
...he drinks.
352
00:34:19,721 --> 00:34:21,790
He's become an alcoholic.
353
00:34:22,190 --> 00:34:25,212
And he lives like a recluse
to hide his decline.
354
00:34:26,694 --> 00:34:30,431
So, this writer goes into a diner.
355
00:34:30,531 --> 00:34:33,468
He's got a... a date with a pretty girl.
356
00:34:33,568 --> 00:34:36,404
But today is not gonna be his lucky day.
357
00:34:36,504 --> 00:34:39,573
He gets into it with some pissed off
truck driv
