1
00:00:01,910 --> 00:00:05,346
Cheers is filmed before
a live studio audience.

2
00:00:05,347 --> 00:00:09,433
I know, Dad, but still...

3
00:00:09,434 --> 00:00:11,736
Well, whatever you think is best, Dad.

4
00:00:11,737 --> 00:00:13,237
Right.

5
00:00:13,238 --> 00:00:16,240
Bye, Dad.

6
00:00:16,241 --> 00:00:17,108
That was my dad.

7
00:00:17,109 --> 00:00:18,859
Really.

8
00:00:18,860 --> 00:00:22,246
Yeah, he's threatening to make
me move back home to Indiana.

9
00:00:22,247 --> 00:00:24,115
He's been talking to my Uncle Fergie.

10
00:00:24,116 --> 00:00:25,583
The guy who was here last week?

11
00:00:25,584 --> 00:00:26,951
I thought he had a great time.

12
00:00:26,952 --> 00:00:28,202
Well, he did.

13
00:00:28,203 --> 00:00:31,205
But all he told them about was
the two times he got mugged.

14
00:00:31,206 --> 00:00:33,040
Oh, that was just bad luck. Yeah.

15
00:00:33,041 --> 00:00:34,008
Woody, you've lived here two years.

16
00:00:34,009 --> 00:00:35,009
How many times you been mugged?

17
00:00:35,010 --> 00:00:36,294
Ten. But...

18
00:00:37,644 --> 00:00:39,964
You know, that's including the
two times with Uncle Fergie.

19
00:00:39,965 --> 00:00:41,515
Oh.

20
00:00:41,516 --> 00:00:44,852
So now my parents are convinced
that Boston is a dangerous town

21
00:00:44,853 --> 00:00:47,104
and all my friends are seedy lowlifes.

22
00:00:47,105 --> 00:00:49,440
Well, surely they don't want
you to go back to Indiana

23
00:00:49,441 --> 00:00:50,808
because we're a corrupting influence.

24
00:00:50,809 --> 00:00:51,559
Well, who knows?

25
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:54,562
Somehow, they got the idea
that every guy in Boston

26
00:00:54,563 --> 00:00:56,447
is some lonely, pathetic weirdo.

27
00:00:56,448 --> 00:00:58,399
Look, is this or is this not

28
00:00:58,400 --> 00:00:59,901
the spitting image of George Schultz?

29
00:01:02,788 --> 00:01:05,073
So, uh, Woody, what
time does your bus leave?

30
00:01:11,413 --> 00:01:13,881
? Making your way in the world today?

31
00:01:13,882 --> 00:01:16,884
? Takes everything you've got?

32
00:01:16,885 --> 00:01:19,887
? Taking a break from all your worries?

33
00:01:19,888 --> 00:01:22,890
? Sure would help a lot?

34
00:01:22,891 --> 00:01:28,145
? Wouldn't you like to get away??

35
00:01:28,146 --> 00:01:30,931
? Sometimes you want to go?

36
00:01:30,932 --> 00:01:35,936
? Where everybody knows your name?

37
00:01:35,937 --> 00:01:40,941
? And they're always glad you came?

38
00:01:40,942 --> 00:01:42,943
? You want to be where you can see?

39
00:01:42,944 --> 00:01:45,946
? Our troubles are all the same?

40
00:01:45,947 --> 00:01:50,951
? You want to be where
everybody knows your name?

41
00:01:50,952 --> 00:01:53,954
? You want to go where people know?

42
00:01:53,955 --> 00:01:55,956
? People are all the same?

43
00:01:55,957 --> 00:02:00,962
? You want to go where
everybody knows your name.?

44
00:02:18,814 --> 00:02:20,816
Okay, let's take it again.

45
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,200
Diane, do we really
have to do this again?

46
00:02:23,201 --> 00:02:25,119
We all agreed that the best way

47
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,122
to persuade Woody's
parents to let him stay

48
00:02:27,622 --> 00:02:29,623
was to show them how
decent and upstanding

49
00:02:29,624 --> 00:02:30,491
his friends are, right?

50
00:02:30,492 --> 00:02:32,410
Okay.

51
00:02:32,411 --> 00:02:33,878
And what better way to show them

52
00:02:33,879 --> 00:02:36,380
than by making a film
of his everyday life?

53
00:02:36,381 --> 00:02:39,383
And who better to serve
as auteur than the person

54
00:02:39,384 --> 00:02:41,385
who ruined the curve in
her film techniques class.

55
00:02:41,386 --> 00:02:44,388
Hey, Diane, shoot the damn film.

56
00:02:44,389 --> 00:02:47,892
Would you tell Fellini
"Shoot the damn film"?

57
00:02:47,893 --> 00:02:50,395
Would you tell Antonioni
"Shoot the damn film"?

58
00:02:50,896 --> 00:02:52,897
Would you tell Bergman
"Shoot the damn film"?

59
00:02:52,898 --> 00:02:56,350
No, I'm telling you,
shoot the damn film.

60
00:02:56,351 --> 00:03:00,738
Better yet, shoot the damn Diane.

61
00:03:00,739 --> 00:03:02,106
Please.

62
00:03:02,107 --> 00:03:03,607
A little more reverence

63
00:03:03,608 --> 00:03:05,109
for the words I've written.

64
00:03:05,110 --> 00:03:06,110
Stick to the script.

65
00:03:06,111 --> 00:03:08,113
And try to be spontaneous.

66
00:03:09,614 --> 00:03:11,116
Okay.

67
00:03:11,616 --> 00:03:16,621
Take 17, "Man-child in Beantown."

68
00:03:18,507 --> 00:03:20,374
Action!

69
00:03:20,375 --> 00:03:23,761
"You know, when, the average
Joe like me gets off work,

70
00:03:23,762 --> 00:03:25,763
"he needs to come to a place like this

71
00:03:25,764 --> 00:03:28,934
where he can sort of unwind
with his surrogate family."

72
00:03:30,052 --> 00:03:32,386
"Took the words right
out of my mouth, Norm.

73
00:03:32,387 --> 00:03:34,388
"But it feels as if

74
00:03:34,389 --> 00:03:37,141
a, uh, crucial part of our
support system is missing."

75
00:03:37,142 --> 00:03:38,442
"You're right.

76
00:03:38,443 --> 00:03:40,694
Uh, what do you think
that would be, Carla?"

77
00:03:40,695 --> 00:03:45,483
"Could it be that bucolic
ray of sunshine from Indiana?"

78
00:03:45,484 --> 00:03:46,484
Stupid.

79
00:03:46,485 --> 00:03:47,986
This whole thing is stupid, Diane!

80
00:03:49,404 --> 00:03:51,289
People, people, work
with me! Work with me!

81
00:03:55,327 --> 00:03:56,327
I hate that. I hate...

82
00:03:56,328 --> 00:03:57,578
"People, people..."

83
00:03:57,579 --> 00:03:58,879
Please, Sam.

84
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:00,381
All right, all right.

85
00:04:00,382 --> 00:04:02,383
Um, "You're right. Woody's not here."

86
00:04:02,384 --> 00:04:03,801
"The place seems so empty

87
00:04:03,802 --> 00:04:05,804
without his smiling countenance."

88
00:04:09,508 --> 00:04:11,509
"Hello, buddies."

89
00:04:11,510 --> 00:04:14,011
"Hello, Woody!"

90
00:04:14,012 --> 00:04:20,351
"Come on over and join
us for some male bonding."

91
00:04:20,352 --> 00:04:21,769
"Well, that sounds good,

92
00:04:21,770 --> 00:04:23,654
but first, I have to call my mother."

93
00:04:23,655 --> 00:04:25,406
Awwww...!

94
00:04:25,407 --> 00:04:27,442
"Yeah, it sure is
refreshing to see a son

95
00:04:27,943 --> 00:04:29,383
"being so considerate of his mother.

96
00:04:29,444 --> 00:04:30,946
Isn't it, Carla?"

97
00:04:31,446 --> 00:04:33,198
It's stupid!

98
00:04:35,367 --> 00:04:38,919
"You know, my lovely and cherished..."

99
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:40,955
Fawn-like.

100
00:04:40,956 --> 00:04:44,292
"...fawn-like bride-to-be,
Diane Chambers..."

101
00:04:45,794 --> 00:04:47,711
You're right, Carla, this is stupid.

102
00:04:47,712 --> 00:04:49,713
The whole thing is stupid!

103
00:04:49,714 --> 00:04:52,216
I mean, why can't we
just use our own words?

104
00:04:52,217 --> 00:04:53,601
Be ourselves here?

105
00:04:53,602 --> 00:04:55,469
Fine, Mr. Smarty Pants.

106
00:04:55,470 --> 00:04:58,355
You're such an expert,
you take the camera.

107
00:04:58,356 --> 00:04:59,356
Go ahead. All right.

108
00:04:59,357 --> 00:05:00,357
All right, I will.

109
00:05:00,358 --> 00:05:02,359
Just don't come crying to me

110
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,363
when the whole
mise-en-scene deteriorates.

111
00:05:06,865 --> 00:05:10,367
You'll find that film is an exacting art

112
00:05:10,368 --> 00:05:11,869
requiring a lot more

113
00:05:11,870 --> 00:05:15,239
than just knowing where
the "on" button is.

114
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:15,990
Good luck.

115
00:05:15,991 --> 00:05:17,992
Yeah, well, we don't need any luck.

116
00:05:17,993 --> 00:05:18,993
And we don't need you, either...

117
00:05:18,994 --> 00:05:20,378
Cinema Puss.

118
00:05:24,249 --> 00:05:26,551
Where is the "on" button on this?

119
00:05:33,592 --> 00:05:34,842
Oh, good, good, good, good.

120
00:05:34,843 --> 00:05:37,178
You're just in time
to see our masterpiece.

121
00:05:37,179 --> 00:05:39,430
Should I alert Pauline Kael?

122
00:05:39,431 --> 00:05:41,032
Well, if you want to,
but tell her to get

123
00:05:41,233 --> 00:05:42,794
her butt in gear, we're about to start.

124
00:05:44,236 --> 00:05:47,071
Cliffie, get the lights there.

125
00:05:47,072 --> 00:05:48,940
Yeah, come on.

126
00:05:51,826 --> 00:05:53,244
This part was my idea.

127
00:05:53,245 --> 00:05:54,612
Look at this.

128
00:05:54,613 --> 00:05:56,914
Startlingly original
use of the subjective camera.

129
00:05:56,915 --> 00:05:58,415
No, not really.

130
00:05:58,416 --> 00:06:02,419
They use it in all your
finer chain saw movies.

131
00:06:02,420 --> 00:06:04,672
Hi, Mom! Dad!

132
00:06:04,673 --> 00:06:06,006
What a surprise!

133
00:06:06,007 --> 00:06:08,509
I was hoping you'd get
to see where I worked.

134
00:06:08,510 --> 00:06:11,512
Welcome to the best bar in Boston.

135
00:06:11,513 --> 00:06:14,515
Pretty wholesome and
unseedy looking, huh?

136
00:06:14,516 --> 00:06:17,518
And here are the best and
most uncorrupting friends

137
00:06:17,519 --> 00:06:19,520
a guy could hope to have.

138
00:06:19,521 --> 00:06:22,023
Hi, Mr. and Mrs. Boyd!

139
00:06:23,525 --> 00:06:26,360
First, I'd like ya to
meet my boss and good friend,

140
00:06:26,361 --> 00:06:27,361
Sam Malone.

141
00:06:27,362 --> 00:06:28,862
Sam used to be a relief pitcher

142
00:06:28,863 --> 00:06:30,364
for the Boston Red Sox.

143
00:06:30,365 --> 00:06:32,816
Now he owns Cheers.

144
00:06:32,817 --> 00:06:35,319
Hi! This is Sam's office.

145
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,321
And over there, that's Sam.

146
00:06:37,322 --> 00:06:39,323
He's more than just a boss to me.

147
00:06:39,324 --> 00:06:42,326
He's like the big brother I never had.

148
00:06:42,327 --> 00:06:45,829
Well, except for Tom.

149
00:06:45,830 --> 00:06:46,830
Hi, Woody.

150
00:06:46,831 --> 00:06:49,250
Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Boyd.

151
00:06:49,251 --> 00:06:51,252
Another good friend, Mr. Norm Peterson,

152
00:06:51,253 --> 00:06:53,755
has been kind enough to
run the camera for us today.

153
00:06:56,258 --> 00:07:00,177
So, uh, Sam, you're, you're
reading the Bible again huh?

154
00:07:00,178 --> 00:07:02,179
Well, yeah, I...

155
00:07:02,180 --> 00:07:04,682
didn't think I was gonna get caught.

156
00:07:04,683 --> 00:07:07,067
Yes, I was just, uh, enjoying.

157
00:07:07,068 --> 00:07:11,488
St. Paul's, uh, Epistle
to the Galatians.

158
00:07:11,489 --> 00:07:12,906
Boy, those Galatians.

159
00:07:12,907 --> 00:07:15,360
When will they listen, huh?

160
00:07:17,862 --> 00:07:19,363
Woody, uh, what's going on?

161
00:07:19,364 --> 00:07:22,866
Oh, well, I have a
little dilemma here, Sam.

162
00:07:22,867 --> 00:07:25,369
My father might call me back home

163
00:07:25,370 --> 00:07:28,172
and, uh, if he does... and
I sure hope he doesn't...

164
00:07:28,173 --> 00:07:29,674
what am I gonna do with this?

165
00:07:31,176 --> 00:07:34,179
I mean, after all, what kind of a place

166
00:07:34,679 --> 00:07:37,182
is a small farm to raise a puppy?

167
00:07:38,683 --> 00:07:41,185
I was hoping you could take him, Sam.

168
00:07:41,186 --> 00:07:43,187
Well, gee, Woody, I don't have the room.

169
00:07:43,188 --> 00:07:44,188
I guess you'll just have to put

170
00:07:44,189 --> 00:07:48,692
the poor little fella to sleep.

171
00:07:48,693 --> 00:07:50,695
Put this poor puppy to sleep

172
00:07:51,196 --> 00:07:53,697
because I have to leave Boston?

173
00:07:53,698 --> 00:07:56,701
Well, if that's what my father wants...

174
00:07:58,703 --> 00:08:00,204
What a shame, Woody.

175
00:08:00,205 --> 00:08:02,206
What kind of dog is it?

176
00:08:02,207 --> 00:08:07,628
What's the difference? He's gonna die.

177
00:08:07,629 --> 00:08:09,631
Well, maybe your daddy
will let you stay here

178
00:08:10,131 --> 00:08:11,632
and take care of him.

179
00:08:11,633 --> 00:08:14,001
I'd sure prefer that.

180
00:08:14,002 --> 00:08:15,302
What about you, pooch?

181
00:08:15,303 --> 00:08:17,255
Would you prefer that to dying?

182
00:08:21,343 --> 00:08:25,763
Subtle tug at the old
heartstrings there, guys.

183
00:08:25,764 --> 00:08:28,149
Boy, I'll say.

184
00:08:29,651 --> 00:08:31,902
Hey, shut up, everybody,
you're missing my yard.

185
00:08:31,903 --> 00:08:35,189
Hi! Welcome to our cookout.

186
00:08:35,190 --> 00:08:37,191
Another chicken leg, Mr. Peterson?

187
00:08:37,192 --> 00:08:39,193
Oh, well, nah... yeah!

188
00:08:39,194 --> 00:08:40,694
What the hey, it looks pretty good

189
00:08:40,695 --> 00:08:42,197
if I do say so myself.

190
00:08:44,449 --> 00:08:48,786
This is my co-worker
here, Carla Tortelli.

191
00:08:48,787 --> 00:08:50,287
Hi.

192
00:08:50,288 --> 00:08:52,289
What do we have here?

193
00:08:52,290 --> 00:08:53,290
Uh, this is just the
sort of family type thing

194
00:08:53,291 --> 00:08:54,793
we do here in Boston.

195
00:08:58,797 --> 00:09:00,798
Hi.

196
00:09:00,799 --> 00:09:03,301
Say something besides "hi."

197
00:09:03,802 --> 00:09:04,803
Hello.

198
00:09:07,772 --> 00:09:08,773
You hear that?

199
00:09:09,274 --> 00:09:11,276
Well, uh, Carla lives
near the airport so...

200
00:09:16,281 --> 00:09:19,283
actually, sometimes,
it's hard to hear.

201
00:09:19,284 --> 00:09:22,286
Why wasn't I invited?

202
00:09:22,287 --> 00:09:23,787
You didn't miss much, Diane.

203
00:09:23,788 --> 00:09:25,289
Carla's kids stole the beef

204
00:09:25,290 --> 00:09:28,158
and then they stuck
Woody's shoes on the fire.

205
00:09:28,159 --> 00:09:31,078
More smoked tongue, anyone?

206
00:09:31,079 --> 00:09:33,081
Give me that!

207
00:09:36,885 --> 00:09:39,387
Hi, Mr. and Mrs. Boyd. I'm...

208
00:09:40,388 --> 00:09:42,389
Hi, Mr. and Mrs. Boyd.

209
00:09:42,390 --> 00:09:44,892
I'm Cliff Clavin, a good pal of Woody's

210
00:09:44,893 --> 00:09:48,395
and a proud member of
the U.S. Postal Service.

211
00:09:48,396 --> 00:09:49,957
Come on along with me and I'll show you

212
00:09:50,398 --> 00:09:53,400
the kind of work we do
routinely at the USPS.

213
00:09:53,401 --> 00:09:55,352
Morning, Woody.

214
00:09:55,353 --> 00:09:56,236
Hi, Mr. Clavin.

215
00:09:56,237 --> 00:09:58,739
Hi, Judy!

216
00:09:58,740 --> 00:10:01,108
Well, let's see what
we got in the mail bag.

217
00:10:01,109 --> 00:10:03,026
Well, look at this!

218
00:10:03,027 --> 00:10:04,528
It's a letter all the way from Guam

219
00:10:04,529 --> 00:10:06,530
to a man right here in Boston.

220
00:10:06,531 --> 00:10:09,032
Wow! It's made it this
far, and it's up to me

221
00:10:09,033 --> 00:10:10,918
to see that it gets where it's intended.

222
00:10:10,919 --> 00:10:14,172
Woody, I could get in
big trouble for that.

223
00:10:14,672 --> 00:10:15,672
Oh.

224
00:10:15,673 --> 00:10:17,542
I'm only one link
in this chain...

225
00:10:18,042 --> 00:10:20,544
a strong link, a vital link...

226
00:10:20,545 --> 00:10:21,963
A missing link.

227
00:10:24,349 --> 00:10:25,600
Come on in.

228
00:10:28,052 --> 00:10:29,553
Pretty impressive, huh, Woody?

229
00:10:29,554 --> 00:10:31,555
Sure is, Mr. Clavin.

230
00:10:31,556 --> 00:10:34,057
Hey, just think, all these letters

231
00:10:34,058 --> 00:10:37,060
traveling thousands of miles
over oceans and rough terrain,

232
00:10:37,061 --> 00:10:40,397
right into the hands of
their, uh, intended addressees.

233
00:10:40,398 --> 00:10:41,782
Hey, why thanks, Woody.

234
00:10:41,783 --> 00:10:42,784
You did that pretty well.

235
00:10:43,284 --> 00:10:44,284
Thanks.

236
00:10:44,285 --> 00:10:46,787
Would, uh, would you like
to try one on your own?

237
00:10:46,788 --> 00:10:49,039
Well, gee, Mr. Clavin, I'm
not a government employee.

238
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:50,407
Pretty good, Woody.

239
00:10:50,408 --> 00:10:51,875
I was just testing him.

240
00:10:51,876 --> 00:10:53,293
Smart boy.

241
00:10:53,294 --> 00:10:55,746
Yeah, Woods, next time

242
00:10:55,747 --> 00:10:57,548
you lick a stamp and
put it on an envelope,

243
00:10:57,549 --> 00:10:59,049
drop it in that old mailbox,

244
00:10:59,050 --> 00:11:01,051
be sure to give some thought to, uh,

245
00:11:01,052 --> 00:11:03,470
the thousands of men and women
in the U.S. Postal Service

246
00:11:03,471 --> 00:11:05,472
who work very hard, day after day,

247
00:11:05,473 --> 00:11:09,344
to make sure that your
mail is delivered safely.

248
00:11:10,345 --> 00:11:11,346
You know, Woods,

249
00:11:11,707 --> 00:11:13,347
you'd make a good
postal carrier yourself.

250
00:11:13,348 --> 00:11:15,849
Yeah? You've got, uh, youth, stamina

251
00:11:15,850 --> 00:11:17,852
and a friend down at the post office.

252
00:11:18,353 --> 00:11:20,354
Oh, who's that, Mr. Clavin?

253
00:11:20,355 --> 00:11:23,774
But then again, bartending
is a noble profession.

254
00:11:23,775 --> 00:11:25,776
But, Woody, you know
there's nothing quite like

255
00:11:25,777 --> 00:11:28,779
the pride a postman feels
on the swift completion

256
00:11:28,780 --> 00:11:30,281
of his appointed rounds.

257
00:11:41,543 --> 00:11:43,594
You don't have to
worry about me going hungry

258
00:11:43,595 --> 00:11:45,429
if I stay here in Boston.

259
00:11:45,430 --> 00:11:48,382
This town is famous for its
finer health food restaurants.

260
00:11:48,383 --> 00:11:49,883
Hi.

261
00:11:49,884 --> 00:11:52,386
And the best of them
all is the Hungry Heifer.

262
00:11:52,387 --> 00:11:53,888
That's right, Woody.

263
00:11:54,305 --> 00:11:55,856
I found out about this place

264
00:11:55,857 --> 00:11:59,359
through a guy who's helped me
plan my life here in Boston,

265
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:03,363
a good friend and my financial
advisor, Mr. Norm Peterson.

266
00:12:03,364 --> 00:12:04,865
Hi.

267
00:12:04,866 --> 00:12:06,367
Are you hungry?

268
00:12:09,871 --> 00:12:12,373
Norm!

269
00:12:15,793 --> 00:12:17,878
Uh, nice place, huh?

270
00:12:17,879 --> 00:12:20,380
Yeah, normally, for
this sort of ambiance,

271
00:12:20,381 --> 00:12:22,833
you'd have to travel to Albuquerque.

272
00:12:22,834 --> 00:12:25,335
Hi, Corinne.

273
00:12:25,336 --> 00:12:26,336
Hi, honey.

274
00:12:26,337 --> 00:12:28,338
Studying at the feet of the master?

275
00:12:28,339 --> 00:12:29,339
Huh?

276
00:12:29,340 --> 00:12:30,841
What can I get you, Norm?

277
00:12:30,842 --> 00:12:33,845
The, uh, Feeding Frenzy Special for two.

278
00:12:36,347 --> 00:12:37,848
How about you, honey?

279
00:12:37,849 --> 00:12:40,851
Well, I think he was
ordering for both of us.

280
00:12:40,852 --> 00:12:42,853
No. No.

281
00:12:42,854 --> 00:12:46,857
Oh, well, give me just one.

282
00:12:46,858 --> 00:12:49,360
Anything for you, Sam?

283
00:12:50,862 --> 00:12:52,363
Smart move.

284
00:13:18,863 --> 00:13:21,024
Oh, Corinne, I think you
forgot the, uh, French fries.

285
00:13:21,025 --> 00:13:24,027
Don't you wanna save room for dessert?

286
00:13:24,028 --> 00:13:26,530
You're one step ahead of me.

287
00:13:26,531 --> 00:13:31,118
They take care of you here.

288
00:13:31,119 --> 00:13:35,038
Finally I want you to meet my
good friend, Dr. Frasier Crane.

289
00:13:35,039 --> 00:13:38,542
Now, I know what you always
said about psychiatrists, Dad,

290
00:13:38,543 --> 00:13:41,545
but, uh, he's not a crook
or a nut case or anything.

291
00:13:41,546 --> 00:13:43,547
He's a pretty smart guy.

292
00:13:43,548 --> 00:13:45,549
Well, here you go, Dr. Crane.

293
00:13:45,550 --> 00:13:47,552
Thank you, Woody.

294
00:13:49,554 --> 00:13:52,055
Mr. and Mrs. Boyd,

295
00:13:52,056 --> 00:13:54,558
in Woody, you have raised

296
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,560
a young man of singular character,

297
00:13:56,561 --> 00:13:59,563
not easily swayed by the
attitudes of those around him.

298
00:13:59,564 --> 00:14:01,898
Trust him. Trust yourselves.

299
00:14:01,899 --> 00:14:05,402
Let him do what he
wants to with his life.

300
00:14:05,403 --> 00:14:08,405
Now, let me address
some of your reservations

301
00:14:08,406 --> 00:14:11,325
about the psychiatric profession.

302
00:14:13,778 --> 00:14:16,780
In this building, you see 18 floors

303
00:14:16,781 --> 00:14:20,283
of highly trained,
dedicated professionals,

304
00:14:20,284 --> 00:14:23,787
whose sole purpose is to heal the mind.

305
00:14:23,788 --> 00:14:25,289
And, you know, I think my mentor...

306
00:14:26,708 --> 00:14:29,259
Norm, Norm, could you run
that back for me, please?

307
00:14:29,260 --> 00:14:31,262
Seek to find...

308
00:14:34,682 --> 00:14:36,684
you know, I think my mentor...

309
00:14:37,636 --> 00:14:39,636
I've gotta tell Dr. Judd
to keep his windows closed

310
00:14:39,637 --> 00:14:41,522
during his depression seminar.

311
00:14:43,307 --> 00:14:44,691
Well, uh, what'd you think?

312
00:14:44,692 --> 00:14:45,692
After seeing that, I think

313
00:14:45,693 --> 00:14:47,061
we should all move to Indiana.

314
00:14:59,323 --> 00:15:00,907
I don't know how you guys did it,

315
00:15:00,908 --> 00:15:04,462
but you made me out as,
uh, some kind of a jerk.

316
00:15:06,247 --> 00:15:08,249
Well, talk about movie magic, huh?

317
00:15:10,134 --> 00:15:12,419
Maybe you're just too close
to the subject, huh, Cliff?

318
00:15:12,420 --> 00:15:14,721
No, I thought he
looked like a jerk, too.

319
00:15:14,722 --> 00:15:17,225
Yeah, you all look like jerks to me.

320
00:15:18,226 --> 00:15:19,643
Oh...

321
00:15:19,644 --> 00:15:20,644
May I say something?

322
00:15:20,645 --> 00:15:21,645
Go ahead, go ahead.

323
00:15:21,646 --> 00:15:23,146
Tell me how right you were.

324
00:15:23,147 --> 00:15:24,648
Get it over with.

325
00:15:24,649 --> 00:15:26,149
On the contrary,

326
00:15:26,150 --> 00:15:29,069
I was about to say that I don't think

327
00:15:29,070 --> 00:15:32,572
any of these people realize
what a fine job you did.

328
00:15:32,573 --> 00:15:33,574
Oh, right.

329
00:15:34,075 --> 00:15:35,076
No, I mean that.

330
00:15:35,576 --> 00:15:36,576
What you have here

331
00:15:36,577 --> 00:15:39,580
is the raw material
for a truly fine film.

332
00:15:39,941 --> 00:15:40,581
Well, thank you.

333
00:15:40,582 --> 00:15:43,083
The problem is entirely
with its structure.

334
00:15:43,084 --> 00:15:44,084
It's too linear.

335
00:15:44,085 --> 00:15:47,337
Yeah, that was gnawing at me, too.

336
00:15:47,338 --> 00:15:49,122
We need to make a film that appeals

337
00:15:49,123 --> 00:15:50,624
to the emotions, not the intellect.

338
00:15:50,625 --> 00:15:52,126
If you'll allow me,

339
00:15:52,627 --> 00:15:54,127
I can transform your film

340
00:15:54,128 --> 00:15:57,130
into a shattering emotional experience.

341
00:15:57,131 --> 00:15:58,632
What are you gonna do to it?

342
00:15:58,633 --> 00:16:02,520
Oh, a snip here, a snip
there, nothing much.

343
00:16:34,168 --> 00:16:37,671
In a world gone mad,

344
00:16:37,672 --> 00:16:39,272
where can a young man go?

345
00:16:39,273 --> 00:16:41,374
Where? Where?

346
00:16:41,375 --> 00:16:42,510
Tell me where?

347
00:16:44,545 --> 00:16:47,347
Hi, Mr. and Mrs. Boyd.

348
00:16:47,348 --> 00:16:49,583
And here are the
best and most uncorrupting

349
00:16:49,584 --> 00:16:52,819
friends a guy could hope to have.

350
00:16:52,820 --> 00:16:54,621
First, I'd like you to meet my boss

351
00:16:54,622 --> 00:16:55,755
and good friend, Sam Malone.

352
00:16:55,756 --> 00:16:57,457
Sam used to be a relief pitcher

353
00:16:57,458 --> 00:16:58,526
for the Boston Red Sox.

354
00:17:11,939 --> 00:17:13,941
Uh, this is just the sort

355
00:17:14,275 --> 00:17:16,611
of family-type thing
we do here in Boston.

356
00:17:16,944 --> 00:17:19,412
Hi, Mr. and Mrs. Boyd.

357
00:17:19,413 --> 00:17:21,115
Welcome to our cookout.

358
00:17:26,420 --> 00:17:28,189
Another chicken leg, Mr. Peterson?

359
00:17:36,163 --> 00:17:37,831
Be sure to give some thought to, uh,

360
00:17:37,832 --> 00:17:39,500
the thousands of men
and women in uniform.

361
00:17:53,047 --> 00:17:57,051
In Woody, you have raised a
young man of singular character,

362
00:17:57,418 --> 00:17:59,887
not easily swayed by the
attitudes of those around him.

363
00:18:00,254 --> 00:18:03,023
Trust him. Trust yourselves.

364
00:18:03,024 --> 00:18:05,392
Let him do what he
wants to with his life.

365
00:18:05,393 --> 00:18:07,160
Shouldn't we all have the chance

366
00:18:07,161 --> 00:18:10,196
to live our lives the way we choose?

367
00:18:10,197 --> 00:18:15,002
Please, give us that chance
in the time we have left.

368
00:18:43,965 --> 00:18:46,801
Well?

369
00:18:48,769 --> 00:18:50,520
Gee, uh, you know...

370
00:18:50,521 --> 00:18:53,356
Oh, you're hurt because
I was the only one

371
00:18:53,357 --> 00:18:54,859
who had a credit at the end.

372
00:18:56,861 --> 00:18:57,861
You keep the credits.

373
00:18:57,862 --> 00:18:59,863
Oh, thanks.

374
00:18:59,864 --> 00:19:03,366
It's just that I felt
I transformed your film

375
00:19:03,367 --> 00:19:09,239
into a personal statement
that was pure Diane Chambers.

376
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,542
It was pure something.

377
00:19:12,923 --> 00:19:14,044
I don't know, Miss Chambers.

378
00:19:14,045 --> 00:19:16,046
Maybe we better not send
this film to my folks.

379
00:19:16,047 --> 00:19:18,548
Oh, Woody, it's a fait accompli.

380
00:19:18,549 --> 00:19:20,050
Was it ever.

381
00:19:20,051 --> 00:19:24,054
No, I mean, I've already
sent a copy to your father.

382
00:19:24,055 --> 00:19:25,839
For all we know, he may be

383
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:27,924
viewing it as we speak.

384
00:19:27,925 --> 00:19:30,226
Oh, I think that's a mistake.

385
00:19:30,227 --> 00:19:31,728
Why?

386
00:19:31,729 --> 00:19:37,684
Well, your film, uh,
didn't have enough...

387
00:19:37,685 --> 00:19:40,070
well, there, there was too much...

388
00:19:40,071 --> 00:19:42,072
it needed a little, uh...

389
00:19:42,073 --> 00:19:45,358
Yeah, and it stunk, too.

390
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:48,362
Thank you, Siskel and Ebert.

391
00:19:49,864 --> 00:19:52,365
Take my word for it,
after Woody's father

392
00:19:52,366 --> 00:19:55,285
sees this impassioned plea
for individual freedom,

393
00:19:55,286 --> 00:19:58,288
there is no way he will
be able to order Woody

394
00:19:58,289 --> 00:20:00,290
to leave here against his will.

395
00:20:00,291 --> 00:20:02,176
Well, I guess this is good-bye, then.

396
00:20:05,596 --> 00:20:08,182
I just can't believe
you're leaving us, Woody.

397
00:20:09,050 --> 00:20:10,350
Are you sure my film

398
00:20:10,351 --> 00:20:13,353
had no effect on your father?

399
00:20:13,354 --> 00:20:14,854
Oh, come on, face it.

400
00:20:14,855 --> 00:20:16,356
All that weird stuff

401
00:20:16,357 --> 00:20:18,858
wouldn't mean anything
to a guy like Mr. Boyd.

402
00:20:18,859 --> 00:20:20,360
Yeah. Besides, he thought

403
00:20:20,361 --> 00:20:23,614
it was too derivative of Godard.

404
00:20:28,035 --> 00:20:30,537
You sure you don't mind if
I take this picture, Sam?

405
00:20:30,538 --> 00:20:33,540
No, I want you to have it.

406
00:20:33,541 --> 00:20:35,542
While we're at it, Woody,

407
00:20:35,543 --> 00:20:37,044
here.

408
00:20:37,545 --> 00:20:39,046
Oh, one of your Elvis earrings.

409
00:20:39,547 --> 00:20:40,547
Yeah.

410
00:20:40,548 --> 00:20:43,500
Well, he was one of
a kind and so are you.

411
00:20:43,501 --> 00:20:45,001
Oh...

412
00:20:45,002 --> 00:20:47,003
Besides, the guy I went
out with last night,

413
00:20:47,004 --> 00:20:49,006
he swallowed the other one.

414
00:20:50,508 --> 00:20:51,508
Here.

415
00:20:51,509 --> 00:20:53,009
I want you to have this.

416
00:20:53,010 --> 00:20:55,011
It's a copy of Being and Nothingness.

417
00:20:55,012 --> 00:20:58,015
My mother gave it to me in grade school.

418
00:20:59,517 --> 00:21:01,518
Aw, thanks, Miss Chambers.

419
00:21:01,519 --> 00:21:05,405
I don't think I've read this one.

420
00:21:05,406 --> 00:21:08,741
Woody, uh...

421
00:21:08,742 --> 00:21:10,243
a six-pack.

422
00:21:10,244 --> 00:21:12,245
All the, uh, beer you've

423
00:21:12,246 --> 00:21:13,746
poured me over the years, you know.

424
00:21:13,747 --> 00:21:15,248
Thanks a lot, Mr. Peterson.

425
00:21:15,249 --> 00:21:16,749
So, Woods, uh,

426
00:21:16,750 --> 00:21:19,252
I've got a sheet of
commemorative stamps here

427
00:21:19,253 --> 00:21:21,754
depicting, uh, all the U.S. Presidents,

428
00:21:21,755 --> 00:21:23,756
uh, well, except nine.

429
00:21:23,757 --> 00:21:26,259
That's great.

430
00:21:26,260 --> 00:21:27,761
Thank you, Mr. Clavin.

431
00:21:33,267 --> 00:21:34,267
See, I didn't know,

432
00:21:34,268 --> 00:21:36,770
I didn't know we were giving gifts.

433
00:21:38,772 --> 00:21:41,274
I could, uh, could I send you something?

434
00:21:41,275 --> 00:21:43,777
Ah, that's fine, Dr. Crane.

435
00:21:47,781 --> 00:21:51,285
It's... been an honor
knowing you, Woody.

436
00:21:51,785 --> 00:21:53,286
You know, if somebody had told me,

437
00:21:53,287 --> 00:21:55,156
I could've picked something up.

438
00:21:58,042 --> 00:22:01,044
Uh... I gotta go.

439
00:22:01,045 --> 00:22:02,545
I'll walk you to the car.

440
00:22:02,546 --> 00:22:04,547
No, no, no, I... I
wanna remember you guys

441
00:22:04,548 --> 00:22:05,916
the way you're standing.

442
00:22:11,672 --> 00:22:14,675
Bye, Woody.

443
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:21,181
Well, hell, we don't have

444
00:22:21,182 --> 00:22:23,183
to stand around here forever, do we?

445
00:22:23,184 --> 00:22:24,935
Does anybody know his shirt size?

446
00:22:27,404 --> 00:22:31,407
Come on, let me buy you all
a beer on the house, here.

447
00:22:31,408 --> 00:22:32,408
No, none for me, Sammy.

448
00:22:32,409 --> 00:22:33,409
Hello, Cheers.

449
00:22:33,410 --> 00:22:34,911
Beer's just gonna remind me of the kid.

450
00:22:34,912 --> 00:22:36,412
It'll be quite some time

451
00:22:36,413 --> 00:22:37,915
before I can even touch one again.

452
00:22:39,917 --> 00:22:43,420
Well, that oughta do it, I guess.

453
00:22:44,922 --> 00:22:46,422
Hey, hey, it's Woody's dad.

454
00:22:46,423 --> 00:22:47,924
Get him! Get him!

455
00:22:47,925 --> 00:22:49,425
Oh, oh!

456
00:22:49,426 --> 00:22:50,927
Woody!

457
00:22:50,928 --> 00:22:53,430
Woody, your father's on the phone.

458
00:22:56,433 --> 00:22:58,935
Hey, guys, how you been?

459
00:22:58,936 --> 00:23:02,690
Hello? Dad?

460
00:23:05,943 --> 00:23:07,443
Really?

461
00:23:07,444 --> 00:23:08,945
Oh, well, thank you. Thank you.

462
00:23:08,946 --> 00:23:10,947
You don't know how happy this makes me.

463
00:23:10,948 --> 00:23:13,449
Yeah, I love you, too. Bye!

464
00:23:13,450 --> 00:23:15,452
Oh, I can stay!

465
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:20,456
Oh, Woody!

466
00:23:20,457 --> 00:23:22,875
Yeah, after reflecting on my film,

467
00:23:22,876 --> 00:23:27,247
he was finally moved
by its timeless message.

468
00:23:27,248 --> 00:23:29,166
No, he tossed it in the thresher.

469
00:23:31,552 --> 00:23:33,002
Well, what, what happened, Woody?

470
00:23:33,003 --> 00:23:34,003
Someone sent him

471
00:23:34,004 --> 00:23:36,005
a real simple note
that changed his mind.

472
00:23:36,006 --> 00:23:37,390
What did it say?

473
00:23:37,391 --> 00:23:39,892
It said, "Let your
son choose his own path"

474
00:23:39,893 --> 00:23:41,894
and it will always lead back to you."

475
00:23:41,895 --> 00:23:43,897
Oh, how eloquent.

476
00:23:44,398 --> 00:23:45,898
Yeah, but it wasn't signed.

477
00:23:45,899 --> 00:23:47,400
Hey, come on, guys, fess up.

478
00:23:47,401 --> 00:23:48,902
Who did it?

479
00:23:51,405 --> 00:23:52,905
Oh, not me. No.

480
00:23:52,906 --> 00:23:54,190
Don't look at me.

481
00:23:54,191 --> 00:23:54,857
Carla?

482
00:23:54,858 --> 00:23:56,743
Yeah, right.

483
00:23:56,744 --> 00:23:59,245
I sure wish I knew who it
was, so I could thank them.

484
00:23:59,246 --> 00:24:02,499
Don't mention it, kid.
