''Grand vin, 1937.''
Happy Birthday, papa!

1:31:13
Again?
1:31:16
-Listen, Matthew.
-Yes?

1:31:18
-You're a big movie buff, right?
-Yes.

1:31:21
Then think of Mao
as a great director...

1:31:26
making a movie
with a cast of millions.

1:31:30
All those millions of Red Guards
marching together into the future...

1:31:35
with the Little Red Book
in their hands.

1:31:40
Books, not guns.
1:31:43
Culture, not violence.
1:31:46
Can't you see what a beautiful epic
movie that would make?

1:31:51
l guess, but...
1:31:53
lt's easy to say books not guns.
1:31:56
But it's not true.
lt's not 'books'.

1:31:58
lt's 'book', a book.
Just one book.

1:32:02
Shut up. You sound
just like my father.

1:32:04
No, listen to me.
1:32:06
The Red Guards
that you admire,

1:32:09
they all carry the same book,
1:32:12
they all sing the same songs,
1:32:14
they all parrot the same slogans.
1:32:17
ln this big epic movie,
1:32:22
everybody is an extra.
1:32:27
That gives me the creeps.
1:32:30
l'm sorry to say it, but...
1:32:32
for me there is
a distinct contradiction.

1:32:37
Why?
1:32:39
Because...
1:32:41
if you really believed what you were
saying, you'd be out there.

1:32:46
Where?
1:32:47
Out there on the street.
1:32:50
-l don't know what you mean.
-Yes, you do.

1:32:52
There's something
going on out there.

1:32:54
Something that feels like
it could be really important.

1:32:57
Something that feels like things
could change. Even l get that.
