He tells us about human beings
as we are. . .

1:59:05
. . .not as we'd like to imagine we are.
1:59:08
The heart of it
was illustrating a truth. . .

1:59:13
. . .about relationships and sexuality.
1:59:15
It was not illustrated
in a literal way. . .

1:59:19
. . .but in a theatrical way.
1:59:21
People said the streets weren't
like New York.

1:59:24
I said, "It doesn't matter.
Look at the name of the street.

1:59:27
No such street exists in New York.
1:59:29
In a funny way, it's as if you're
experiencing New York in a dream.

1:59:33
It seems like New York, but it's not.
1:59:35
It seems like your wife, you know,
but what is she telling me?

1:59:40
And do I want to know?
Maybe I shouldn't ask. "

1:59:43
Because I'm a beautiful woman. . .
1:59:45
. . .the only reason any man
ever wants to talk to me. . .

1:59:51
. . .is because he wants to fuck me.
Is that what you're saying?

1:59:58
Well, I don't think it's quite
that black-and-white. . .

2:00:05
. . .but I think we both know
what men are like.

2:00:11
So on that basis. . .
2:00:13
. . .I should conclude that you
wanted to fuck those two models.

2:00:20
There are exceptions.
2:00:24
And what makes you an exception?
2:00:28
I took that character of Bill home.
2:00:32
At times, that was not
a nice place to be. . .

2:00:34
. . .sitting, in that character
for that amount of time.

2:00:39
It really is not the kind of person
that I am, that contained. . .

2:00:43
. . .noncommunicative,
likes the daily routine. . .

2:00:46
. . .the stability of his life.
2:00:48
Ignoring his wife in that
relationship.

2:00:51
Not wanting to rock the boat.
2:00:52
Taking things for granted, Bill did.
2:00:55
Took her, his family and his life
for granted.

2:00:58
He's just a little too smug,
and she just goes, "bang. "
