Yes, I work in a barber shop,
But I never considered it I'm a barber
I stumbled into it well, Married him, more precisely.
That is not my position. Like my friend, I only work here.
A dump is 200 square feet...
With three seats, or station, as we call them,
Although there are only We both work.
But this is my point.
I mean that these traders and trappers will come to this country,
Get the and their gold "ignots" weatherers
Frank Raffo, my brother-in-law, is the main barber.
Man, can he talk.
Maybe if you are 11 or 12 years old, Frank has an interesting perspective But sometimes that makes me nervous
Not that I'm complaining, your mind.
Like I said, that's the main trimmer.
Frank's father August they call him Guzzi
Has been working head over in Santa Rosa for 35 years...
Until the ticker stops in the middle of the middle school.
He left the shop for Frankie to be free and clear,
And that seems satisfying all of Frank's ambitions
Cut hair and chew the fat.
I, I don't talk much.
I just cut her hair.
It is said here that the Russian people exploded a bomb...
And no damn we can do it.
How do you like their apples?
Being a barber is very similar to being a bar of men or jerk soda.
Not very much You have learned the basic movements.
For children, there is butch, or heinie,
Flattop, ivy,
Crew, vanguard,
Junior contour...
And occasionally executive contours
Live in a small bungalow on the way to Napa
That place is fine, I guess.
Having an electric fridge, gas fireplace...
And the garbage grinder is built into the sink
You might say I have it.
Oh Year, There is one more thing.
Doris keeps her books in Nirdlingers,
A small department store on the main road.
Doris likes the job, accounting.
He likes to know where everything stands
And he gets ten percent of employees any discount he wants
Nylon stockings,
Makeup and perfume.
Doris and I go to church once a week.
Usually Tuesday night.
Doris is not big in divine worship,
And I doubt whether he believes in eternal life.
Most likely he will tell you that our reward is on this earth,
And bingo might be breadth.
B-7
Pay attention to your card, honey I'm not crazy about games,
But, I don't know, it makes him happy,
And I found the settings calm down.
Jesus. Bingo.
Bingo!
Doris boss, Big Dave Brewster,
Married Ann Nirdlinger, heir to the department store Tonight they came to dinner.
As Doris said,
We entertain.
I, I don't like to entertain.
- How are you, Ed? - Well.
Take your coat, Ann?
Our capsules have been pinched in Buna for something like six weeks.
I have to say yes, I think we have it difficult, but we have supplies
The beetle is eaten by insects and maggots and thorns.
Anyway, someday we are bankrupt from the beach...
And we find Arney Bragg, this child Miss is recon.
The fleas have eaten a bitch.
If you will forgive, uh...
After all, he is a thin and thin child, nothing to write home about.
I mean, I never woulda, you know.
So, what am I saying, honey?
What do I say when I don't like dinner?
Come on. What did I say?
I said, "Arney Bragg, again?"
Arney Bragg, again?
- Are you in service, Ed? - No, Dave, I don't.
Ed is the 4-f on the account the curve is falling.
That's difficult.
That's... it's difficult.
Yes, I think Doris likes all of that stuff man.
Sometimes I feel that
He and Big Dave are much closer than they let.
The signs are there, is pretty plain
Not that I will do it prance about it, remember.
This is a free country.
Wait on the terrace area, Ed?
- That is the wife who arrived there. - Yeah.
He is rare.
So, how is the business, Dave?
Oh, uh, it can't be better.
This is the boom period at retailin ', Ed.
We opened another shop there in carson,
Attachment of Big Dave. Now, this is very polite.
These are casual clothes, pajamas, underwear for women and foundations,
Something like that.
As a matter of fact, I think ' made Doris a supervisor.
Listen, when the attachment opens, you have to stop by
Maybe we can update your suit a little, huh?
Of course, you enter smock all day
Where did you get the item, anyhow?
Special shop in Sacramento
You tie your own fly.
I mean, if you are really serious, You tie your own fly.
You do, uh...
I know. This is very thorough. I know.
People say, hey, you can buy flies in the shop
In essence, there is a certain art for the process
The point is not just to give.
Let me show, these fish aren't as stupid as you might think.
Sure. Go to shop.
Explain to the man where you will fish and for what,
And then you might also have the guy sell the damn fish, Ed.
My point is,
This is a person who doesn't know anything, no matter how much you say to him
- So sell him a damn fish, Ed. - Yeah.
Good.
Who gets the privilege?
We just close, friend.
Oh, happy days.
I hope I do well enough to turn business What's the problem, friend? This is an business establishment with opening hours.
More power for you, brother.
Damned public.
Hey...
I'll take care of it. You go ahead, Frank.
Have a seat, mister.
- Are you sure, Eddie? - Yeah, yes, please.
In your ear, sir.
Oh, those fiery Mediterraneans.
Uh, say, uh, Not so fast there, brother.
Pretty good, huh?
Fools even experts.
One hundred percent of human hair. Handcrafted by Jacques
From San Francisco.
I don't like having to tell you what I paid for it Yes, this is a good rug.
I paid it for the installment plan.
Many people live with open pates.
They say dames think it's sexy,
But for my money it's not well maintained '.
And the dresser 'my friend, maybe The most important thing in business.
After personality of course.
Creighton Tolliver. Glad to know.
Ed Crane.
So, what brings you to Santa Rosa
Goose, my friend I chasin 'wild goose.
Ed, have you ever heard about venture capital?
Risk of money. Very speculative.
Except that in certain situations no, see
I think I have a prospect here
Well, I made the catch... And this is horrible so-and-so tells me...
That the situation has changed.
All of their capitals are tied in their own expansion plans.
Thank you, Mom. Pop away other bubbles.
This is only the biggest business opportunity since Henry Ford,
And it doesn't seem to be to attract the attention of the soul.
Is that correct?
This is called dry cleaning.
You hear I'm right, brother. Wash dry.
Wash without water.
No foam There is no mixing There is no pressure on the clothes.
Everything is finished with chemicals, friend.
And this is the capper...
There is no shrinkage That's right.
Wash dry.
All I need is $ 10,000 to open the first store.
Then I use the cash flow to finance the others, and so on,
Leapfrog, bootstrap itself to all chains.
Alright, me and my partner.
Cleanliness, friend
There is money in it. There is a future.
There is room to grow.
Say, that looks pretty good.
Let's see with hair ornaments on.
Wash dry.
Am I crazy? to think about it?
Is he a huckster or an opportunity, real McCoy?
My first instinct is No, no, the whole idea is crazy.
But maybe it's instinct which keeps me locked in a barber shop,
The nose against the exit is afraid to try turning the knob.
- Honey? - Hmm?
Shave my legs, huh?
What if I can get the money?
It's clean.
There is no water.
Chemicals.
Give me encouragement Love it, baby What are you... eh, come in.

I've met Doris blind on a double date...
With my strong friend who is looking at his friend from work.
We go to the movies. Doris has a bottle.
Wow, he can save it.
At the end of the night, He said he liked that I didn't talk much.
Only a few weeks later he suggested we get married.
Yes.
Ed, this is Big Dave. I have to talk to you What?
Now?
Yes. This is important.
But that's it...
Please, Ed.

I was all shot to hell.
So, do you pay for that person?
What kind of man are you

Socked me on the nose, whatever.
I deserve it.
I'm not proud of what I do.

Oh, you don't know anything, huh?
Now, you know the story.

I was all shot to hell.
Well, Dave, uh...
Only a few weeks later he suggested we get married.
I said, "Don't you want to? Get to know me again?"
He said, "Why? Does it get better?"
He looked at me like I was an anesthetic,
What I never really thought of was
And he is right, I guess.
We know each other as well as now.
Anyway, pretty good.
Holy, moley, are I having a headache

Who do you think?
Lloyd Garroway in San Francisco.
Honesty.
You know, no one ever said anything fragile about Lloyd Garroway.
He is conservative.
The jury might be like that. Maybe like that here.
Honesty.
So, he, uh, the best guy for...
No.
The best, money-isn't-the best object,
any lawyer will tell you, is Freddy Riedenschneider from...
Sacramento.
I don't know how you stay for money - But he... - Best.
The best, yes.
Riedenschneider.
There are no questions about that.
Honey.
I brought your make up.
Glasses.
What happened to you?
I don't know what happened... I...
I don't know what happened to Big Dave
I know part of it.
Disagreements in the books, they said. Can I explain it?
You don't need to do it explain what
I helped him cook a book, Ed. I did that
Should I...
Should I say why did I change books?
You don't need to do it Say anything
No no No!
Jesus Christ!
My book was perfect.
Anyone can open them and make sense from the whole damn shop.
I know we will pay for it.
I don't care how much it costs!
This is when you gather.
Now, that's very generous of you, Frank Fuck that Fuck that, Eddie.
This is when you gather.
This is family.
They are just people like you and me, Ed.
Remember that.
Only people
They have to put up big fronts so that people will trust them with their money.
This is why the lobby is big, Ed.
But they wear their pants one leg at the same time as you and me.
They also use the toilet, Ed. regardless of appearance And their money will be secured by a barber.
A stone. A stone, a barber shop.
Mr. Raffo.
Yes sir?
Can you come with me?
Sure. Can Ed come too?
Sir...
Crane. Ed Crane.
Do you also have an interest in security files?
She's a barber.
- Second seat. - Not owner No, he, uh, family. He is my brother-in-law.
That will be the best if he waits here
Barber shop.
Doris and Frank's father has worked 30 years to have it for free and clearly.
Now you have entered the bank, and the bank signed a contract with Frank.
And Frank signed the money to Freddy Riedenschneider
Who entered the city two days later...
And told me to meet him in Da Vinci for lunch.
Not fried, boiled. Three of them for two minutes.
Strip steaks, medium rare, flapjacks, potatoes, tomato juice...
And lots of hot coffee.
- Do you have Prairie oysters? - No sir.
Then bring me a fruit cocktail while I wait
- You are a crane? - Yeah.
Barber, right?
I'm Freddy Riedenschneider. Hungry?
Uh, not really.
They told me okay here. I ask a few questions.
Listen, I don't want to waste your time, so I will eat while we talk.
Is it okay? You don't mind While I'm in town I stay at the Metropole Hotel.
Turandot Suite. Yes, this is ridiculous. They named their suite after the opera.
Rooms are fine. I searched.
I have it for me. I will go back and forth.
So, besides my followers, You pay the hotel,
Cost of living, secretarial,
Personal eyes, if we need to make a question, The shrinker head, should we go like that.
We will talk about appeal if, when and when
- For now, has he confessed? - No, of course not. He didn't do it.
Good. That helps. Not that he doesn't do it That he doesn't admit it.
Sure, there are ways to deal with recognition, but that's one thing that is less to think about.
Now, interview. I'll meet him tomorrow. You pray there is 3:00
One more thing. You shut up.
I get land from the land, I say what must be said.
Not talking outside of school. What comes out of school? Everything doesn't go to school
I speak You keep your trap closed.
I'm a lawyer You're a barber You don't know anything.
Good.
There are questions, give me a ring
Turperot suite. If I leave, leave a message.
Of course you don't want anything? Not? Well.
You're fine, friend You're fine, he's fine, everything will be hunky...
And... and flapjacks, baby
That's them,
All go about their business.
Looks like I know the secret,
Even bigger, than what actually happened to Big Dave,
Something they don't know.
Like I made it to the outside somehow,
And they are all still struggling far below.
Ann.
Hello, Ed.
Do you want to come in, Ann?
No, no, very late.
I'm very sorry for your loss Of course you know that Doris has nothing to do with it
Nothing at all
I know.
Don't worry, Ed.
I came to tell you...
And you have to tell Doris...
Yes?
Do you know how Big Dave likes to camp and get out of the door?
Yes.
We went camping last summer in Eugene, Oregon.
Outside Eugene, Ed.
Yes?
At night there are lights. We both saw them.
We never tell anyone outside of our official reports,
Our report to the government.
There is a spaceship.
I saw the creature.
They lead Big Dave to the plane.
He never told anyone what they did.
Ann, do you want...
I can't repeat it for you, But this continues, Ed.
This is included in and involves the government.
This is not your wife. There is a lot of fear.
You know how certain circles will find it,
Knowledge, a threat.
They try to limit it, and...
Ann, do you want to enter,
Sit down?
Maybe you already drank.
Sometimes knowledge is a curse, Ed.
After this happens,
Things change.
Big Dave...
He never touched me again.
Tell Doris don't worry.
I know it's not him.
Maybe this will take it out
Finally.
Maybe now everything will come out.
It smells bad.
But that's true.
I don't care that's right, that's not true. It smells bad.
You said he was being squeezed? With whom You don't know
Having an affair With whom? You do not know
Does anyone else know about that? Probably not. You don't know
I know about that.
Big Dave tells about that...
And where he entered by getting the money
Great! Your husband supports you. That's great.
Come on, you have to give me something to work with
Freddy Riedenschneider is good, But he is not a magician.
He can't just wave his wand into the air to make a reasonable defense come true.
Look at the other side will run to us They get the company book prepared by you,
Cooked by you. That's the motive.
They get a place of murder that you can access. That's a chance.
They get the small trimmer stabbed in the throat with.
- Weapons dame - That is Big Dave's.
Don't bother me That means.
They get a good and honorable pillar from the business community as victims,
And then they catch you,
A subordinate who is dissatisfied, gambling,
Who on the day is drunk as skunk...
And the alibi for the intended time is unconscious at home.
I'm with him.
Like I said,
It smells bad.
I killed him.
Good. You killed it
Okay, we forget about extortion. You killed it
How can it be?
He and Doris, eh, have an affair.
Good.
How do you know?
I just found out.
A husband knows.
Does anyone else say that they know?
And don't tell your wife.
I don't know I don't think so.
How do you enter the store?
I took Doris's key.
Did anyone say they saw you there? walk there, there, on the way back?
I don't think so.
Does anything strengthen the sad part? Your story at all
Oh come on! People, You can't help each other like that.
Let's be realistic now.
Let's see our choices. Well, frankly, I don't see any choice.
Listen, I can't present an "A." story I can't attend
story "B."
I can beg you for crazy people, But you look too calm.
I can file a guilty plea, and enter back they don't give you juice,
But I don't think you want to spend it the rest of your life at Chino.
I know you do not employ Freddy Riedenschneider
To hold your hand at the judgment session.
You can just Lloyd Garroway for that.
No no no no. We haven't given up yet.
You hired Freddy Riedenschneider, This means you don't throw towels.
I submitted a claim.
I don't give up.
Alright. There is no choice We must think.
Alright. We return to extortion objects. Yeah, it's titillates.
It's open, and that makes it a bad person.
You dig around, you never know. Something unpleasant from his past.
He approaches you to help him with the money, His past haunts him again. Who says it?
Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Forget jealousy husband. That's just ridiculous.
We go with blackmail. I will contact.
I'm out!
Of course there is one person who can confirm Doris's story,
Or many.
Dry cleaning pansy.
But he left the hotel, Passed the bill.
He also disappeared from the residence he gave me,
Because of two months.
How can I be so stupid?
Submit $ 10,000 for a piece of paper
And the man left, like a ghost.
Missing into thin air evaporates like a nips on Nagasaki.
Leave now
All gone
The money is gone, Big Dave left,
Doris goes
How can I be so stupid?
Sooner or later, everyone needs a haircut
We keep cutting hair, trying to stay afloat,
Make a payment, step on the water from day to day,
Day by day.
Most people think someone is accused of a crime,
They transport them and take them to court, But it's not like that.
Not so fast.
The wheel of justice is slow.
They have arraignment, then indictment,
And they entertain the movement to stop and delay and change places...
And change this and that and others.
They dropped the jury, which brought more movement.
Then they set a trial date, and then they change the date.
And then, often not, they will change it again Not guilty, Your Honor.
And through all that, we cut hair
Meanwhile, Freddy Riedenschneider slept at the Metropole...
And shoveling it in Da Vinci's.
He brought a private investigator from Sacramento...
For the nose around to the past of Big Dave.
I found myself more and more, went to Abundas's.
That is the routine we experience most every night
I even left when Walter left on his research trip.
He is a genealogist,
Has traced the family side seven generations,
Late deceased wife
It seems like a hobby is messed up,
But then maybe all of those hobbies.
Maybe Walter found something there in the old state courthouse,
Hospital room files,
City archives, property rolls,
Registries.
Something that might be like what I found listening to the game Birdy.
Some types of escapees.
A kind of peace.
They got this man in Germany.
something or other Fritz.
Or is that... Maybe it's Werner.
However... He has this theory.
You want to test something, You know, scientifically...
How is the planet? goes' around the sun,
What sunspots are made of,
Why does the water come out of the tap...
Now, you have to see it.
But sometimes you see it...
You see that change.
You can't know the reality from what happened,
Or what will happen,
If you don't get stuck in your own damn schnozz
So there is no "What happened."
See something...
Change it
They call it uncertainty principle
Of course, that sounds chaotic, but even Einstein said The man likes something.
Science.
Perception.
Reality.
Doubt.
It's natural... doubt.
I often say that the more you see,
the less you really know.
These are facts, proven facts.
In... On the one hand,
That's the only fact that exists.
This number even writes it in number.
Burned?
David Allen Brewster,
Born Brooklyn, 1 91 1.
Educational schools are educated. One year at a western university.
Flunks come out.
1 931, Retail tool salesman in Barnhoff department store, Cincinnati.
1 933, Meet Ann Nirdlinger. They got married that year.
1 935, Arrested for complaints of attack
The applicant has a broken nose, several broken ribs.
'36, Other beef attacks in a barrack bar fight.
Yes yes. Some fistfights, right? Go to the service record.
Induction March 14, 1 942.
Served in clerical capacity in the U.S. Navy shipyard in San Diego.
One fistfight, broken down by M.P.S.
There is no martial arts. Dear debit, maybe 8, 1 945.
- Since then, he's been clean. - Thank you, barn. Away.
Is that so?
This could be your Dolly ticket out of the dead house
I see!
I don't understand.
Listen, dumbfounded.
This is a man, from what I understand, tells everyone that he is a war hero, right?
Island-jump,
Practically liberated, the Pacific alone,
With a knife in one hand, a gun in the other hand,
Did Big Dave say that he just heard from an old friend
Did Big Dave say something was about his war service?
I don't know I'm not there.
You must tell us
Maybe he determines, Maybe he didn't do it.
I don't put in your mouth, no
But the point is this liar, _ this cynical manipulator,
Switch to you to help him get out of his traffic Asshole bastard.
- Who are you... who exactly... - Who?
Who?
I don't know who.
But the point is that if the Prosecutor is there...
Already devoting half the time he spent on persecuting this woman...
Even for the shortest examination even from Schmo's past,
Then we can know who.
But we can't know who. We cannot know what really happened.
Because the more you see, the less you know
But the beauty is...
We don't have to know.
We just have to show that, god damn it, they don't know.
Because of Fritz, or Werner, whatever the name is.
Freddy Riedenschneider sees during the day.
We got real shots in this case, guys. Don't be arrogant Get out!
Big Dave.
What an anesthetic.
So maybe Riedenschneider can fix it for Doris.
Maybe everything will work.
And I think,
I hope,
Maybe there is a way out for me too
He was deaf when he wrote this.
Who?
Beethoven.
He created it, but he never did it really heard it I think he only heard everything on his head somehow.
That girl has talent. Anyone can see that.
And it turns out it's not some fly-by-nighter.
He is just a good and clean child.
If he is going to have a career, he needs responsible adults... Looking out for him,
Some types of managers.
He must have a contract to see, went on tour,
Playing on the radio, maybe.
I can help him sort it out without burdening his arms and legs.
Enough to get past it.
Then I can be with him,
Enough to keep yourself feel fine
Why can't it work?
Why not?
- Hi, Mr. Crane. - Hello, Birdy.
I think it's really good.
Yes, I messed up a little above, um, at agitato,
But if no one is paying attention, then it's okay
Oh, this, um, is a friend of mine.
Tony, um, Mr. Crane.
Hello, Tony.
Hello, sir.
Congratulations.
Think I'll go home now.
In the past... nice to meet you, sir
You too, Tony
Why doesn't it work?
Anyway, that's what I thought in the days leading up to the trial.
It seems like it's over, I will be ready to start a new one.
Freddy Riedenschneider is busy preparing.
He is very optimistic.
And finally that happened... the first day of the trial,
What is called the Riedenschneider "Big show."
Where is the judge? Why is there no judge?
Where is the judge, Ed?
Riedenschneider. How can the judge? not come out?
= = Judge comes last. He will enter when Doris gets here.
So where is Doris? I think we start at 10:00.
Hey, Riedenschneider. Where is Doris?
She's late.
Too late? How can he be late?
He was jailed, Ed. None of us are imprisoned.
But we are not late. We are on time, Ed.
How can Doris be late?
What, they don't have a wake-up call - all goes up - No no.
Counselor What happened, Ed?
I think there will be an argument,
Caregivers and so on.
Ed, what is this?
What is this procedure?
In people's problems v. Doris Crane,
Case number SR-87249,
The cause is now delayed With this terminated...
I don't understand.
This has really been shot. I can win this.
Women and men from the jury,
Your service is no longer needed... And you are now debit.
He hanged himself.
I bought her a dress to wear to court, and she used the belt.
At first I thought he had guessed that was somehow how I got into it...
And can't stand it, can't stand knowing
But that's not what I'll find later.
For now, everything seems to have been destroyed.
Freddy Riedenschneider returns to Sacramento,
Still shaking his head, said it was the biggest disappointment From his professional career.
Frankie is in pieces.
I suspect he is drinking.
After all, he stopped coming to work
That left me to keep a fixed place, or the bank must have taken it
I'm the main barber now.
I hired a new man for the second seat
I have hired the person who rambled the least. When he came for the interview,
But I think the new man is silent because he's nervous
Once he gets a job, he talks from When I open a shop in the morning...
Until I'm locked at night.
For everything I know, he speaks to himself On the way home.
When I walked home, it seemed like everyone avoided looking at me,
As if I contracted a disease.
This is with Doris, no one wants to talk about it
It feels like I'm a ghost walking on the road.
And when I got home now,
The place feels empty.
I sit at home,
But there's nobody there.
I'm a ghost.
I don't see anyone Nobody saw me.
I am a barber.
Some bacon and potatoes, which should come with him.
So I paid for it, and I put the change in my pocket without really seeing...
Because, my God, who saw the change when did you eat there every day
Two blocks later I saw on the changes he gave me. Wow, I'm two short bits.
So I walked back to Linton's house, found this gal, big argument
He doesn't even remember the transaction.
Don't remember the transaction. There are no memories
So I said, "Listen, baby. Continue. Look at the menu."
If you are before 6:00, it is whatchamacallit...
- Early bird special - Yes, wake up early
Derek?
I'm Crane.
My name is Diedrickson, county medical examiner
Yes?
I just came for informal chat
Why don't I buy you a drink?
Black wheat.
Just copy it
Are you sure you don't want something more rigid?
That coffee.
County M.E. autopsy to anyone who died in detention
I don't know if you know that.
This is routine.
It is not a matter of public record unless there is fraud.
However,
I don't think I'm banned from telling you this Of course not required too.
I just don't know.
But if I'm the person,
I want to be notified.
What did you say?
I'm not here to add...
Thank you.
Your wife is pregnant First trimester
That is there.
I'm sorry.
Hell, I hope I'm done the right thing.
My wife and I haven't had sex for many years.
Good,
That's really none of my business.
I'm sorry.
That is there.
Good luck, Crane.
Doris and I have never really talked much I don't think so bad thing of course.
But it's funny. Now I want to talk.
Now, with everyone going,
I'm alone with secrets I don't want...
And nobody to tell them to stay.
I went to see the woman who was supposed to have the power to communicate...
With those who have "Graduated", as he called it.
He said that the people who crossed him were picky about
Who they are communicating with.
Unlike most people You meet on this side.
So you need a guide, someone with a gift to talk to the soul.
Extend your hand.
Well, first he said that my wife was in a peach place,
That our soul is still connected,
That he will never stop loving me...
Even though he has done several things he is not proud
Man, he is reading me like a book
He is fake, is just bullshit I changed to Ann Nirdlinger,
Big Dave's wife
I have to turn my back on me to that old woman,
On the veil, above the ghost,
At the time of death,
Before they all sucked me up.
Ed?
How are you?
Okay, Walter. Thank you.
L, uh... I'm really sorry for hearing about your loss
A terrible thing This is terrible.
Uh, Birdy upstairs. I'm at a distance, so...
Sure, Walter.
Hello, Birdy.
Hi, Mr. Crane.
We haven't seen you since...
We definitely miss you
Birdy, I already did it thinking a lot
There are many things that haven't worked for me.
Life has given me some homeless cards.
Or maybe I haven't played it properly.
Pop doesn't like people smoking here
I'm sorry.
Now, sometimes I have a cigarette When he leaves, but never when he is at home.
He can smell it a mile away.
Well, of course. This is his home.
That's what he keeps telling me.
Anyway, my point is you are young,
A boy, really, your whole life in front of you But it's not too fast to start create an opportunity for yourself...
Before everything is washed clean.
Yes I guess. Pop also said that.
You know, I work is quite difficult at school
It swells.
However, the music, If you want to pursue it...
Lessons from Mrs. Swan, they will only take you so far
There is this person in San Francisco.
I made a question.
Everyone says he's the best.
Well-trained people who have gone to big concerts careers in orchestra symphonies, works.
His name is Jacques...
Carcanogues.
I am not sure I said it correctly. After all, he is French.
- Oh Boy. A french, huh? - You have talent
Anyone can see it. And he is the best.
If he sees a student which he thinks has talent,
He brought it for nothing. So you are easily accepted.
I can cover the cost of the lesson. Like I said, this is quite simple.
- Oh, my goodness, Mr. Crane. - No, I have to do it
I can't stand and watch Things are in vain.
You're young You don't understand
Geez, sir, Mr. Crane. I don't really think about careers or things.
Well, I know you haven't done it yet.
Listen, just look at him as an aid for me.
I talked to this person.
He relaxed a little when I told him how talented you were.
He agreed to meet you Saturday.
He said, uh, maybe that's the case a rough diamond
His words.
Gosh, I don't know, Mr. Crane.
Just look at him as help for me.
Are you father?
No, I am him... I am a family friend.
I am Carcanogues. You will wait, my dear I talked to you on the phone, no?
Do you have a special interest in music?
A music lover, Alors.
Um, I don't pretend to be an expert How did he do it?
Looks like he is like that a very good girl
He plays, Monsieur,
Like a very good girl.
Smell
Good girl,
However, it stinks.
Well, I don't understand.
It's not too difficult to understand.
He plays, uh, very polite.
Did he make a mistake?
Error? Not.
It says "E-flat," he plays E-flat.
Ping, ping. He plays right notes always
Well, I don't understand. There are no errors
Listen, he's just a kid. I think you teach these kids to...
No, no, no, Monsieur. That's what I can't teach him, huh? I can't teach him to have a soul.
Hmm, voyez, Monsieur. Look.
To play piano is not about fingers.
We make it with fingers.
But the music, Monsieur, he came from L'interieur, from inside, huh?
Music,
He started here.
He came out through here.
Hmm? Then maybe,
Maybe,
He can go here.
Like I said, I'm not an expert.
So you can listen to me, because I'm an expert
Voyez, Monsieur. This girl, good girl.
His hands are very smart. Good girl I think, uh, maybe someday...
He can make a very good typist, huh?
Voila.
- I smell, right? - He didn't say that
No, but more or less.
I'm not an expert,
But there must be a dozen teachers better than this clown - No, look, really... - More quality.
God damn it.
Really, it's okay.
I am not interested in playing music professionally.
You know, I'm not sure I want a career at all,
And if I do it, I might do it - vet - Yeah.
But I appreciate your interest Not meaningful.
I hope I play better for you I know it will make you really happy.
You know what you are What?
You are an enthusiast Yes, probably.
You know, I really appreciate the interest you take
I just want to make you happy.
No, it's okay. I want to do it.
- Birdy! - No, it's okay.
Mr. Crane, I want to do it. Mr. Crane!
- Birdy, please don't do it! - Mr. Crane, please!
- Heaven for Betsy, Birdy! - Please, Mr. Crane.
Time slows down just before in an accident,
And I have time to think about things.
I thought about an administrator once told me once
Your hair continues to grow For a while,
After you die
And then stop.
I thought, "What made it grow?"
Is it like a plant on the ground?
What comes out of the ground?
Soul?
And when is the hair? realize that it's gone
Hello!
I see you still have stone beans in your driveway
Of course you have to rejuvenate that every few years, right? When do peas thin out?
Ha. Where is the direction, huh?
Like weird socks.
Of course, you know the purpose. You might choose the pieces from your page all the time,
Churn it with your grass drive, sweep from your terrace there.
- Pain in the neck. - Never bother me Okay, have you ever considered macadam tar?
People think it's only for public works or commercial purposes,
But we have the technology now to bring it to homeowners,
Individual consumers, at very competitive prices.
Mind if I show the specifications? In the afternoon, ma'am.
What do you sell?
Ma'am, I just told your husband here about macadam tar
To enter your house here.
Here's the brochure. This is a modern way to...
Get away.
Jesus.
Doris.
Don't say anything I'm fine.
Crane.
Mr. Crane?
Are you there?
Do you wake up?
He is around.
Can you talk, sir? These people must talk to you.
Do you wake up? Sir?
He... he's awake. Continue.
Do you wake up?
Did he wake up?
Crane, as soon as you realize, we have to tell you that...
- Uh, is he aware? - His eyes are open.
Uh, you were arrested.
As soon as the doctor allows us, we have to move you
Does he understand that? We have to tell him. Are you aware - They will take you to the prison hospital. - Caught for murder
What? What did he say?
Birdy. Uh, the girl No, the girl is fine.
Clavicle broken
It's a collarbone, Crane. It's broken.
She's fine.
So he understands, then, is he arrested for murder?
- Big Dave - Huh?
What? What did he say?
He said okay
Is that what he said?
You were arrested for the murder from Creighton Tolliver.
Do you understand that?
Does he understand?
Pansy
A child diving in a water hole outside the city has found the car.
They revoked it...
And it turns out he was beaten, as Big Dave said.
Beaten to death.
In the suitcase is a partnership document that I signed,
Shows that I will give him the top ten
For district attorneys, which makes it fall into place.
I've got Doris stolen money
Pansy was wise somehow, so I had to kill him to cover my tracks.
On the detention calendar,
People v. Edward Crane.
I'm somewhere.
You are charged in a matter of complaints...
I called Freddy Riedenschneider and signed the house with him.
He said he was unusual cheap work,
But he thought he owed me something to me because the last one hasn't been played.
- How do you now beg? - We plead not guilty, Your Honor.
I tried to tell the whole story, But Riedenschneider stopped me.
He said the story made his head hurt.
He didn't see how to use it without putting me in the hot seat...
- For the murder of Big Dave. - The trial date is set for Monday a week.
He told me not to worry. He said he would think of something.
They put me at 24 hours of death,
So that I cannot cheat justice As they say, my wife has done it.
But in front of the jury, They have it that Doris is a saint.
The whole plan is mine.
I am a svengali who has forced Doris to join
My criminal company
Continue and continue,
How do I use Mrs. Clausen, Then let her fall.
The items are clever because some are almost correct.
And then that Riedenschneider Turn.
Ladies and gentlemen, jury members, citizens of Santa Rosa,
We just heard from the district attorney a rather scary description...
From people who are truly despicable.
I have to hand it to him. He throws a lot of sand in their eyes,
He talks about how I lost my place in the universe,
How I am too ordinary criminal mastermind...
D.A. made me become,
How are there some larger schemes in the workplace that the country has not been decomposed.
And he threw some real truth items at him Not yet had time to run out for Doris.
Maybe at first look at these lines and only see chaos a modern work of art.
He told them to see me, see me close
The closer they see, The more absurd it will all work.
This human, this barber.
That I'm not the type of man to kill a man,
That I am a barber, for God's sake
I'm like them, ordinary people
Guilty of living in the world There is no place for me, huh.
Guilty of wanting to be a dry cleaner, of course.
But not murder.
But the most specific, this is a barber dilemma.
Because he is a modern human.
He says I'm a modern person.
He is your shadow.
And if they choose to punish me,
They can practically ring a snare around their own neck.
He told them not to see the facts, but on the meaning of the facts.
And then he said Facts are meaningless.
That was a pretty good speech and even told me to leave,
Until Frankie cuts it off.
What kind of man are you
Move to do trial! Your Honour!
What kind of man are you
Move to cancel
Now, he got his mission canceled, But the well is dry.
There is nothing left for the mortgage.
Riedenschneider returns home, and the court appoints Lloyd Garroway,
Who threw me mercy on the court.
Your honor, we plead guilty...
That's my only chance, he said.
I think that means I never had a chance.
He doesn't buy all those things modern human goods, or things that are uncertain,
Or any mercy item.
This man is a threat to society.
No, he went to the book,
And the book says I sit in a chair.
He has lost his right for his own life.
So this is me,
At first I didn't know how I arrived here
I know step by step, of course,
That's what I said, step by step.
But I can't see any patterns.
Now that I'm nearing the end,
I'm glad this men's magazine pays me to tell my story Writing it helped me to sort everything.
They pay me a word,
So you will forgive me if I sometimes say more than you want to know.
But now it's all broken Things seem to be related.
That's a funny thing about going,
Knowing the date you will die
And the men's magazine I want me to tell you how that feeling is.
Well, this is like pulling away from the labyrinth.
When you are in the labyrinth, You will be stupid,
Turning where you think You have to turn away,
Banging to deadlock,
One by one.
But you can be a bit far away,
And all those bends and it turns out...
Why, they are the form your life
It's hard to explain.
But seeing the whole gives you peace.
The man's magazine also asks about his regrets.
Yes, I think I'm sorry about my pain causing someone else.
But I don't regret anything.
It's nothing
I used to.
I was sorry being a barber
I don't know where I was taken
I don't know what I will find outside the earth and sky,
But I'm not afraid to leave.
Maybe things I don't understand will be clearer there,
Like when the fog explodes.
Maybe Doris will be there.
And maybe there I can tell it...
All of that...
They don't have words to here.
