Next door we have the Hensons.
They make a living from grinding edges off
cheap glasses to try to make them look expensive.

:24:08
And here we have Jack McKay.
Now, Jack McKay is blind and the whole town knows it.

:24:13
But he thinks he can hide it
by never leaving his house.

:24:18
In the old stable Ben keeps his truck.
:24:20
He drinks and he visits the whorehouse
once a month and he is ashamed of it.

:24:27
Martha she runs the mission house
until the new preacher comes which will just never happen.

:24:34
That leaves Ma Ginger and Gloria.
They run this really expensive store,

:24:41
where they exploit the fact
that nobody leaves town.

:24:45
Used to leave to go vote,
but since they put on the registration fee,

:24:50
about a day's wage for these people,
they don't feel the democratic need any more.

:24:59
Those awful figurines say more about
the people in this town, than many words.

:25:04
If this is the town that you love,
then you really have a strange way of showing it.

:25:10
All I see, is a beautiful little town
in the midst of magnificent mountains.

:25:20
A place where people have hopes
and dreams even under the hardest conditions.

:25:30
And seven figurines that are not awful at all.
:25:36
[Narrator] Calling Dogville beautiful was
original at least.

:25:40
Grace was just casting one more look
at the figurines she herself would have dismissed
as tasteless a few days earlier,

:25:48
when she suddenly sensed
what would best have been described
as a tiny change of light over Dogville.
