but that's only cos that's
where the money was in those days.

:38:04
Cardinals and Bishops were
always hiring artists

:38:07
to paint scenes from the Bible.
:38:08
And Lords, of course, trying to
show of how holy they were.

:38:12
He had to do a runner out of Rome
for killing some fella in a fight.

:38:15
Bit of a fucking headcase,
do you know.

:38:20
Michael, this isn't right.
:38:22
Excuse me, my, my wife,
she needs to...

:38:45
See Jesus and Judas...
:38:47
Caravaggio used fellas
off the street as his models.

:38:50
He hung around bars and
whorehouses all the time

:38:53
picked out someone interesting
to be Jesus or whoever.

:38:57
I think he got a kick out of that,

:38:59
having Cardinals on their knees...
:39:02
praying away to some painting
of a murderer or something.

:39:06
What are you laughing at?
:39:08
Oh, nothing.
:39:11
I was just thinking about
what lasts, you know,

:39:13
and who gets the benefit.
:39:15
I mean, your man who painted this
:39:16
he never saw any of the money
it's supposed to be worth, right?

:39:19
But he gets the reputation though
:39:21
I mean, people remember who he is.
:39:23
And that's the thing, isn't it?
:39:26
You're afraid no-one'll
remember you after you're dead?

:39:29
I think
you should take up painting.

:39:31
Why? So I'll be remembered?
:39:33
Nah. So you could do the kitchen.
:39:53
Hello, yeah?
:39:54
Father Grogan?
:39:55
Paul Grogan, yes, that's me.
:39:57
My name's Christine.
:39:59
I phoned you about the Caravaggio.
