Thank you, private benjamin.
:36:06
We have the privilege of living
in this monumental tribute...
:36:10
...to man's concept of beauty.
:36:12
I want you to note the connubial chase
in rubens' finest, most supple style.
:36:17
That must've been his horny period.
:36:22
Sergeant rossi.
:36:32
Gentlemen, i suspect
10 years from now, or 20...
:36:34
...at some american legion
convention...
:36:39
...one of your nightmares will be
that day in the ardennes...
:36:42
...when you weren't blown up
by a bomb...
:36:44
...you were bored to death by
captain beckman.
:36:47
Now, the purpose of my talk...
:36:50
...is to shock you.
- Sir?
:36:53
Isn't the purpose to be sure the troops
don't get an hour off?
:36:56
The function of all art
is to disturb and awake.
:36:59
- Now, if i may make a small analogy...
- you do that, sir.
:37:05
Corporal clearboy. Was your estimate
general patton planned in advance...
:37:09
...his breakthrough out of normandy?
- I don't know, sir.
:37:12
I wanted to hear you say that.
He was with general patton.
:37:16
He and i were never close, sir.
:37:18
It makes my point.
:37:19
There's the same kind of spontaneity
in war as in art.
:37:23
War is an art of becoming,
a culmination.
:37:26
An orgasm?
:37:29
Yes, art is like a sexual experience.
:37:32
And the sexual experience, like art,
cannot be culminated alone.
:37:36
You certain about that, sir?
:37:40
You gentlemen recall the training film
lieutenant amberjack showed you?
:37:44
- The one on sex, sir?
- I'd like to link that to the art of war...
:37:50
...which the film didn't cover.
:37:52
When you have a sex film,
you can't cover everything.
:37:59
No, but i mean seriously, gentlemen,
sex without love...
