:55:12
you'd leave
a good-lookin' corpse.
:55:14
Well, that's the best thing
about dying young, right?
:55:17
You know
what the worst thing is?
:55:19
- About dying young?
- About dying when you're still perfect.
:55:24
I'm not perfect.
:55:27
- Well, you're a little scrawny.
- Wiry.
:55:29
- Wiry.
- Thank you.
:55:31
And, you know, this...
this is gonna go eventually.
:55:34
That's what i'm talking about.
:55:36
The worst thing about dying young
is that your work has no relevance.
:55:40
Why?
:55:43
'Cause you got off easy.
:55:45
You skipped out on all the countless
humiliations life had planned for you.
:55:49
So, then,
as a career choice...
:55:52
you would advise
against dying young.
:55:59
Let's play a game.
:56:04
- It's a pretend game.
- Pretend?
:56:09
What shall we pretend?
:56:12
Go to the mirror
and look at your reflection.
:56:24
Oh, yeah.
:56:26
Now i'm gonna
describe a situation to you.
:56:31
You ready?
:56:33
Yeah.
:56:36
It's the future.
:56:39
You're 40 years old.
:56:41
- Can you imagine that?
- Yeah.
:56:46
You're 40 years old...
:56:50
and you're a failure as an artist.
:56:54
I mean, you haven't
completely stopped fighting.
:56:57
You haven't completely
given up the ghost, but...
:56:59
it's been years and years, and your work
hasn't achieved any real acclaim.
