1
00:02:16,403 --> 00:02:18,539
- Hello?
- Hello, Meg?
2
00:02:18,573 --> 00:02:19,941
It's me,
3
00:02:19,974 --> 00:02:21,208
Kathy Madison.
4
00:02:22,275 --> 00:02:23,645
I hope you're awake, girl.
5
00:02:24,812 --> 00:02:26,547
It's almost midday,
for God's sake.
6
00:02:26,581 --> 00:02:27,715
Of course, I'm awake.
7
00:02:28,148 --> 00:02:29,984
Barely, I'd say.
8
00:02:30,018 --> 00:02:32,820
Listen, Meg, I need you
in my office in about an hour.
9
00:02:32,854 --> 00:02:34,187
Can you make that?
10
00:02:35,355 --> 00:02:36,423
Of course.
11
00:02:36,456 --> 00:02:37,491
But why?
12
00:02:37,525 --> 00:02:38,826
What's up?
13
00:02:38,860 --> 00:02:40,360
I'll be waiting.
14
00:02:40,394 --> 00:02:41,395

Glad you made it.
59
00:04:55,096 --> 00:04:56,864
Hi, Kathy is in there?
60
00:04:56,898 --> 00:04:58,766
- Can I go in?
- One moment, please.
61
00:05:05,405 --> 00:05:07,074
Ms. Madison?
62
00:05:07,108 --> 00:05:09,043
- Meg is here.
- Send her in.
63
00:05:15,448 --> 00:05:16,449
Hi, Kathy.
64
00:05:19,887 --> 00:05:22,489
Isn't that The Words
on the cover there?
65
00:05:22,523 --> 00:05:25,560
Funny, I was just listening
to them.
66
00:05:25,593 --> 00:05:28,029
He was like a god
once upon a time.
67
00:05:28,062 --> 00:05:29,864
A fallen god, I'm afraid.
68
00:05:29,897 --> 00:05:32,166
Well, a rock god, nonetheless.
69
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,769
In fact, The Words
are more popular now
70
00:05:34,802 --> 00:05:36,571
than when Jake Lion was alive.
71
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:39,774
Do you remember
that article you wrote
72
00:05:40,675 --> 00:05:42,910
about The Words
73
00:05:42,944 --> 00:05:45,980
and all that rock music
from the '70s
74
00:05:46,013 --> 00:05:48,583
when I first took over
the magazine from my father?
75
00:05:49,650 --> 00:05:51,652
Well, I dug it out of the vault.
76
00:05:51,686 --> 00:05:54,155
Wow. That was a long time ago.
77
00:05:54,188 --> 00:05:56,489
My first piece
for Rolling Stone.
78
00:05:58,526 --> 00:06:01,829
Are you still into Jake Lion
and The Words?
79
00:06:01,863 --> 00:06:04,065
Like any rock lover should.
80
00:06:04,098 --> 00:06:05,398
You want to meet him?
81
00:06:05,900 --> 00:06:07,201
Are you nuts?
82
00:06:07,235 --> 00:06:09,737
He has been dead
for over 40 years.
83
00:06:10,638 --> 00:06:12,139
Well, that's what they say.
84
00:06:13,608 --> 00:06:15,643
You know, when they
first came to Paris,
85
00:06:15,676 --> 00:06:18,079
my father did a special edition
just on him,
86
00:06:18,112 --> 00:06:19,714
put him on the cover.
87
00:06:19,747 --> 00:06:21,515
Yes, I wasn't born yet.
88
00:06:22,149 --> 00:06:23,483
That was the end of The Words.
89
00:06:23,517 --> 00:06:25,553
Yeah. They tried to replace him,
90
00:06:25,586 --> 00:06:27,555
but it was like putting
someone other than Mick Jagger
91
00:06:27,588 --> 00:06:28,990
to front the Stones.
92
00:06:30,625 --> 00:06:31,792
True.
93
00:06:31,826 --> 00:06:33,928
But the point is, Jake is dead.
94
00:06:33,961 --> 00:06:36,697
He jumped into the Seine
in front of a ton of people.
95
00:06:37,832 --> 00:06:38,833
Really well.
96
00:06:40,134 --> 00:06:41,702
And I never understood why
97
00:06:41,736 --> 00:06:44,171
a rock star like him
would commit suicide.
98
00:06:45,706 --> 00:06:47,141
Rock star vertigo, maybe.
99
00:06:50,044 --> 00:06:51,245
Listen, Meg,
100
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,248
do you know anything
about The Phantom of the Opera?
101
00:06:54,282 --> 00:06:57,084
I know it was
a French boring story
102
00:06:57,118 --> 00:06:59,687
we had to learn in school.
103
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:00,721
Why?
104
00:07:02,590 --> 00:07:03,456
Well, just think about it.
105
00:07:03,490 --> 00:07:05,893
I have a couple
of important meetings,
106
00:07:05,927 --> 00:07:07,595
but I'll meet you here,
107
00:07:09,196 --> 00:07:10,497
at midnight.
108
00:07:11,299 --> 00:07:12,465
The Class.
109
00:07:14,235 --> 00:07:16,570
What the hell is The Class?
110
00:07:16,604 --> 00:07:18,839
Well, you'll find out

What?
136
00:09:05,746 --> 00:09:07,815
Have you seen me in something?
137
00:09:08,315 --> 00:09:10,117
No, but honestly,
138
00:09:10,151 --> 00:09:13,954
I never knew a bartender
who wasn't an actor.
139
00:09:13,988 --> 00:09:16,757
Do you know
anything about theatre?
140
00:09:16,791 --> 00:09:18,959
I know I've done
a lot of auditions.
141
00:09:18,993 --> 00:09:21,362
So, you know
Phantom of the Opera.
142
00:09:21,395 --> 00:09:23,831
Is it still on Broadway?
143
00:09:23,864 --> 00:09:26,934
Mm. That's one I've never
auditioned for, sorry.
144
00:09:26,967 --> 00:09:28,269
But you know the story.
145
00:09:29,937 --> 00:09:30,938
Let me see.
146
00:09:32,807 --> 00:09:34,175
The Phantom is a guy in a mask
147
00:09:34,208 --> 00:09:36,010
and he lives
in the Paris sewers
148
00:09:36,043 --> 00:09:39,113
when he is not swinging
from Opera chandeliers.
149
00:09:39,146 --> 00:09:41,082
And he is pissed off,
150
00:09:41,115 --> 00:09:43,684
'cause he is a great composer
and he got ripped off.
151
00:09:45,286 --> 00:09:46,287
Or is that Cats?
152
00:09:47,321 --> 00:09:48,622
Uh-huh.
153
00:09:49,256 --> 00:09:50,991
Thanks a lot.
154
00:09:51,025 --> 00:09:52,293
And good luck.
155
00:09:52,326 --> 00:09:53,327
Thanks.
156
00:09:57,898 --> 00:09:58,899
Kathy?
157
00:10:00,434 --> 00:10:01,602
What?
158
00:10:03,471 --> 00:10:04,738
I don't...
159
00:10:05,439 --> 00:10:06,607
Kathy.
160
00:10:07,274 --> 00:10:08,275
Kathy!
161
00:10:12,413 --> 00:10:13,647
Excuse me.
162
00:10:15,049 --> 00:10:17,084
Do you know Plynth the Persian?
163
00:10:17,718 --> 00:10:18,719
Plynth?
164
00:10:20,221 --> 00:10:21,689
That's him right over there.
165
00:10:22,256 --> 00:10:24,024
Hey, Plynth!
166
00:10:24,058 --> 00:10:26,093
Got a lady here
who wants to talk to ya.
167
00:10:31,799 --> 00:10:33,667
Are you Plynth the Persian?
168
00:10:33,701 --> 00:10:35,402
Yeah. What can I do for you?
169
00:10:35,436 --> 00:10:38,005
I just spoke with Kathy Madison
on the phone.
170
00:10:38,038 --> 00:10:41,075
She told me you maybe have
something to tell me?
171
00:10:41,108 --> 00:10:42,743
Oh.
172
00:10:42,776 --> 00:10:44,845
I was talking to her
about Jake Lion.
173
00:10:45,479 --> 00:10:47,848
I was his personal roadie.
174
00:10:47,882 --> 00:10:51,185
Used to help him on stage
when he was too drunk to walk.
175
00:10:51,218 --> 00:10:53,087
And I was with him in The Words
176
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:54,922
the year he disappeared.
177
00:10:54,955 --> 00:10:55,956
And?
178
00:10:57,491 --> 00:10:58,659
Well,
179
00:10:59,193 --> 00:11:00,427
like I told Kathy,
180
00:11:00,895 --> 00:11:03,097
Jake Lion is alive
181
00:11:03,130 --> 00:11:04,732
and only I know where he is.
182
00:11:05,833 --> 00:11:07,434
That's bullshit.
183
00:11:07,468 --> 00:11:10,871
Jake Lion is dead
for, what, 40 years?
184
00:11:11,372 --> 00:11:12,840
You know, you're cute.
185
00:11:12,873 --> 00:11:14,708
And you're a liar.
186
00:11:14,742 --> 00:11:16,377
I never lie.
187
00:11:16,410 --> 00:11:18,913
Except about the size
of my dick.
188
00:11:18,946 --> 00:11:21,015
So, finally, what's the story?
189
00:11:21,782 --> 00:11:22,783
Well, here it is.
190
00:11:23,918 --> 00:11:26,854
I'm finishing up a European tour
with Vampire Weekend,
191
00:11:26,887 --> 00:11:28,822
and I got a day off in Paris.
192
00:11:28,856 --> 00:11:29,990
I'm on the metro.
193
00:11:32,426 --> 00:11:33,727
Give me a Diet Coke, Rick.
194
00:11:35,396 --> 00:11:37,498
The train pulls into
Pere-Lachaise.
195
00:11:37,532 --> 00:11:40,100
That's the big cemetery.
196
00:11:40,134 --> 00:11:42,436
And I started hearing
Jake Lion's voice.
197
00:11:43,404 --> 00:11:44,405
Loud,
198
00:11:45,139 --> 00:11:46,140
clear,
199
00:11:46,807 --> 00:11:47,908
and live.
200
00:11:49,310 --> 00:11:50,844
And I knew that voice.
201
00:11:51,445 --> 00:11:53,347
It gave me goosebumps.
202
00:11:53,380 --> 00:11:55,249
There was no mistaking it.
It was Jake.
203
00:11:55,883 --> 00:11:57,519
So, you saw a ghost.
204
00:11:57,552 --> 00:11:59,386
Shit like that happens
all the time,
205
00:11:59,420 --> 00:12:01,523
especially when
you are high enough.
206
00:12:01,556 --> 00:12:04,291
I've been sober for 20 years.
207
00:12:04,325 --> 00:12:06,393
And I knew Jake Lion
better than anyone.
208
00:12:06,427 --> 00:12:09,296
But why you didn't
go back to see him?
209
00:12:09,330 --> 00:12:10,965
I did go back the next morning.
210
00:12:10,998 --> 00:12:12,266
Couldn't find him.
211
00:12:12,299 --> 00:12:14,368
Then we left Paris.
I mean, I was on tour.
212
00:12:15,970 --> 00:12:17,972
But maybe it was, I don't know,
213
00:12:18,005 --> 00:12:19,373
someone who wanted to be him
214
00:12:19,406 --> 00:12:22,176
or an imitator.
Or, I don't know...
215
00:12:22,209 --> 00:12:23,777
No way. No way.
216
00:12:25,012 --> 00:12:26,380
I was with Jake Lion
and The Words
217
00:12:26,413 --> 00:12:28,282
until the very end.
218
00:12:28,315 --> 00:12:30,017
Did a three-month tour
around the States
219
00:12:30,050 --> 00:12:31,285
before he split to Paris.
220
00:12:32,186 --> 00:12:33,821
He was planning a new album
221
00:12:33,854 --> 00:12:36,790
and he was writing new songs
like crazy.
222
00:12:36,824 --> 00:12:39,594
And nobody ever heard him sing
those new songs but me.
223
00:12:39,628 --> 00:12:42,263
But, what does
that really prove?
224
00:12:43,364 --> 00:12:44,999
Prove?
225
00:12:45,032 --> 00:12:46,800
He was singing
one of those new songs
226
00:12:46,834 --> 00:12:48,869
when I saw him on the subway.
That's what it proves.
227
00:12:48,902 --> 00:12:51,372
Are you Meg Trudeau,
by any chance?
228
00:12:51,405 --> 00:12:52,773
I am Meg Trudeau.
229
00:12:53,207 --> 00:12:54,341
Why?
230
00:12:54,375 --> 00:12:56,977
Somebody left
something for you earlier.
231
00:13:04,485 --> 00:13:06,387
Tickets for Paris?
232
00:13:06,420 --> 00:13:08,956
Why? I don't want
to go back there.
233
00:13:08,989 --> 00:13:11,025
My God, it's not
my home anymore.
234
00:13:12,293 --> 00:13:13,595
Merde!
235
00:13:17,231 --> 00:13:20,467
♪ You know my secret
236
00:13:20,502 --> 00:13:25,806
♪ In a way
I just try to be free ♪
237
00:13:37,117 --> 00:13:39,453
I just received a message
from Kathy Madison
238
00:13:39,486 --> 00:13:43,057
to come and to see you
before my travelling in Paris.
239
00:13:43,090 --> 00:13:44,191
Good morning, Mr. Springsteen.
240
00:13:44,224 --> 00:13:46,960
Good morning. Welcome to
the great state of New Jersey.
241
00:13:46,994 --> 00:13:47,995
Thank you.
242
00:13:48,996 --> 00:13:51,566
So, it seems Kathy thinks
243
00:13:51,599 --> 00:13:54,468
you can bring Jake Lion
back to life.
244
00:13:54,502 --> 00:13:57,171
That would be a good trick.
He's been gone for quite a while.
245
00:13:57,806 --> 00:14:00,107
But how did you meet him?
246
00:14:00,140 --> 00:14:03,110
We met in the early '70s.
247
00:14:03,143 --> 00:14:05,179
We were probably 22 years old.
248
00:14:05,212 --> 00:14:07,081
Two of us were just kids.
249
00:14:07,114 --> 00:14:09,116
He was with
his group, The Words,
250
00:14:09,149 --> 00:14:10,150
and I was
251
00:14:10,918 --> 00:14:12,186
solo act at the time.
252
00:14:12,219 --> 00:14:14,455
But his style was...
253
00:14:14,488 --> 00:14:16,524
Was more like... I think
they signed the two of us
254
00:14:16,558 --> 00:14:18,292
to be new Dylans together
actually, at the time.
255
00:14:18,325 --> 00:14:20,562
That was Everybody's
Looking For Somebody.
256
00:14:20,595 --> 00:14:23,097
And, uh... Around 1972.
257
00:14:24,398 --> 00:14:26,266
And did you play
some music with him?
258
00:14:26,300 --> 00:14:27,334
Not too much.
259
00:14:27,368 --> 00:14:29,269
Jake let me open for him.
260
00:14:29,303 --> 00:14:30,605
I opened for him a few times.
261
00:14:30,638 --> 00:14:32,039
And... Which was pretty nice
262
00:14:32,072 --> 00:14:33,675
because there wasn't
a lot of people letting us
263
00:14:33,708 --> 00:14:35,242
open for 'em in those days.
264
00:14:35,275 --> 00:14:36,678
- Yes.
- And...
265
00:14:36,711 --> 00:14:40,214
But we hung around together
quite a bit and...
266
00:14:40,247 --> 00:14:42,916
I've... Just somebody
I've felt really close to.
267
00:14:42,950 --> 00:14:44,586
You know, I've missed him.
268
00:14:44,619 --> 00:14:46,621
And, what do you remember
about him?
269
00:14:46,654 --> 00:14:47,988
What do you remember?
270
00:14:48,021 --> 00:14:50,491
What can you tell me
about what was he like?
271
00:14:51,125 --> 00:14:53,060
Jake was...
272
00:14:53,093 --> 00:14:56,096
Even back then, I would say,
he was a little more miserable
273
00:14:56,130 --> 00:14:58,432
than most artists, you know?
274
00:14:58,465 --> 00:14:59,701
But he was a sweet guy.
275
00:14:59,734 --> 00:15:01,969
He always had a...
He had a sweet heart.
276
00:15:02,436 --> 00:15:04,037
And,
277
00:15:04,071 --> 00:15:05,673
an incredible lyricist.
278
00:15:05,707 --> 00:15:07,241
And really,
279
00:15:07,274 --> 00:15:09,176
just a great frontman,
you know?
280
00:15:09,209 --> 00:15:11,513
Really though, my wife actually
281
00:15:11,546 --> 00:15:13,347
knew him better than I did.
282
00:15:13,380 --> 00:15:15,683
'Cause she sang...
Before she sang with the E-Street Band,
283
00:15:15,717 --> 00:15:18,285
she sang backup in Jake's band
for quite a while.
284
00:15:18,318 --> 00:15:21,121
But he just disappeared
like that.
285
00:15:21,155 --> 00:15:23,558
That was one of
the strangest things, you know?
286
00:15:23,591 --> 00:15:25,560
Uh, and the strange...
287
00:15:25,593 --> 00:15:27,327
It was just as he was
288
00:15:28,563 --> 00:15:30,598
becoming really successful.
289
00:15:30,632 --> 00:15:31,999
- Mmm.
- You know?
290
00:15:32,032 --> 00:15:34,736
And, I mean,
it's not for everybody,
291
00:15:34,769 --> 00:15:36,738
but he'd done all the hard work.
292
00:15:36,771 --> 00:15:39,339
- Mm-hmm.
- He had already done the hard work.
293
00:15:39,373 --> 00:15:42,176
And, once he got there,
for some reason,
294
00:15:42,209 --> 00:15:43,678
- he slipped off the map, you know?
- Yeah.
295
00:15:43,711 --> 00:15:45,513
And, I heard it was Paris,
296
00:15:45,547 --> 00:15:47,214
and I heard
he jumped off a bridge.
297
00:15:47,247 --> 00:15:48,482
I don't know
what happened to him.
298
00:15:48,516 --> 00:15:50,350
Yeah, it's really strange.
299
00:15:52,186 --> 00:15:54,522
- Hi, Patti. I'm Meg.
- Hi. Hi, Meg.
300
00:15:54,556 --> 00:15:56,724
I work with Kathy Madison.
301
00:15:56,758 --> 00:15:58,392
I have some questions.
302
00:15:58,425 --> 00:16:02,062
Jake Lion disappeared like that.
303
00:16:02,095 --> 00:16:04,766
Yeah. I hadn't seen him
in a long time,
304
00:16:04,799 --> 00:16:06,967
but, um, I heard that he...
305
00:16:07,836 --> 00:16:10,437
Well, he jumped off a bridge
in Paris.
306
00:16:10,471 --> 00:16:13,407
Um, I wasn't singing with him
at the time.
307
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:15,409
I had left the band, The Words,
308
00:16:15,442 --> 00:16:17,010
way before that.
309
00:16:17,044 --> 00:16:19,246
So you were not there
when he jumped into the river.
310
00:16:19,279 --> 00:16:20,682
No.
311
00:16:20,715 --> 00:16:23,585
And when was the last time
you saw him?
312
00:16:23,618 --> 00:16:26,420
The last time I saw him,
he was happy.
313
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,557
I think it was more of his...
314
00:16:29,591 --> 00:16:30,792
He didn't like
what came along with it.
315
00:16:30,825 --> 00:16:32,794
Like fame. I think fame felt
316
00:16:32,827 --> 00:16:35,797
very disruptive to him,
317
00:16:35,830 --> 00:16:37,599
and made him go really inward.
318
00:16:37,632 --> 00:16:39,801
But, if we were touring
and on the bus with him,
319
00:16:39,834 --> 00:16:42,804
he'd playing and singing
and having the greatest time.
320
00:16:42,837 --> 00:16:44,037
Yes.
321
00:16:44,071 --> 00:16:45,673
But I heard, mm,
322
00:16:45,707 --> 00:16:48,408
and I saw
in an interview of Jake,
323
00:16:48,442 --> 00:16:51,245
and he said it was easier
for him to confront a failure
324
00:16:51,278 --> 00:16:52,747
than to deal with success.
325
00:16:52,780 --> 00:16:54,381
What do you think about that?
326
00:16:54,414 --> 00:16:56,584
- It's...
- It's complicated,
327
00:16:56,618 --> 00:17:00,254
but I... I do think
music was very natural to him
328
00:17:00,287 --> 00:17:03,056
and that was his safe spot.
His own music.
329
00:17:03,090 --> 00:17:04,659
But, doing it in public,
330
00:17:04,692 --> 00:17:08,328
and then, having the public
be part of that equation,
331
00:17:08,362 --> 00:17:09,363
felt...
332
00:17:09,396 --> 00:17:12,065
I think it just never felt
comfortable to him.
333
00:17:12,099 --> 00:17:14,468
He was just never
really comfortable with it.
334
00:17:14,502 --> 00:17:17,572
Whatever the wolf
at the door was for him,
335
00:17:17,605 --> 00:17:21,341
it seemed to exist
when he was with his audience.
336
00:17:21,375 --> 00:17:22,744
- He was just...
- Yeah, right?
337
00:17:22,777 --> 00:17:25,279
He was just more private
than most, you know,
338
00:17:25,312 --> 00:17:26,814
for, considering...
339
00:17:26,848 --> 00:17:29,349
for a job where you're...
340
00:17:29,383 --> 00:17:32,486
putting yourself out in public
on a daily basis.
341
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,890
But why do you think he
could have committed suicide?
342
00:17:35,924 --> 00:17:38,425
For me, I mean,
I have my struggles with it.
343
00:17:38,458 --> 00:17:42,797
You know? And most musicians
or artists do.
344
00:17:42,830 --> 00:17:45,232
But at the same time,
I was determined, you know?
345
00:17:45,265 --> 00:17:48,402
I felt our band was good enough
that we deserved an audience.
346
00:17:48,937 --> 00:17:50,103
And...
347
00:17:51,639 --> 00:17:54,274
So, I just... I followed...
348
00:17:54,308 --> 00:17:55,610
I followed that path.
349
00:17:55,643 --> 00:17:57,377
And I just think
it was a lot easier for me
350
00:17:57,411 --> 00:17:58,880
than it was for Jake.
351
00:17:58,913 --> 00:18:01,816
You know, for some reason,
352
00:18:01,849 --> 00:18:03,618
Jake's, whatever his
inner demons were,
353
00:18:03,651 --> 00:18:05,285
or whatever
you want to call them,
354
00:18:05,319 --> 00:18:08,856
he was a lot more ambivalent
355
00:18:08,890 --> 00:18:10,625
about the kind of success
he was able to have.

Meg Trudeau, I'm Joe Shipers.
391
00:21:14,575 --> 00:21:16,343
Nice to hear from you.
392
00:21:16,376 --> 00:21:18,713
I guess Kathy Madison
got in touch?
393
00:21:18,746 --> 00:21:19,781
Yes, she did.
394
00:21:19,814 --> 00:21:21,816
Pretty wild idea,
if you ask me.
395
00:21:21,849 --> 00:21:24,384
Probably a waste
of Kathy Madison's money.
396
00:21:24,417 --> 00:21:25,853
Although, I guess
she can afford it.
397
00:21:27,487 --> 00:21:29,389
So, I take it you don't think
398
00:21:29,422 --> 00:21:31,893
Jake Lion could
actually be alive and well
399
00:21:31,926 --> 00:21:33,493
and living in Paris?
400
00:21:33,528 --> 00:21:35,328
Isn't that what they said
about Jacques Brel?
401
00:21:36,463 --> 00:21:37,999
Are you free for dinner?
402
00:21:38,032 --> 00:21:39,667
I'll tell you
exactly what I think
403
00:21:39,700 --> 00:21:40,701
and what I know.
404
00:21:42,069 --> 00:21:43,070
Hmm.
405
00:21:50,912 --> 00:21:52,445
So, you're English.
406
00:21:52,479 --> 00:21:54,682
Correct! What gave me away,
the accent?
407
00:21:54,715 --> 00:21:57,484
I've been here so long,
I thought I sounded French.
408
00:21:58,085 --> 00:21:59,554
So, why Paris?
409
00:21:59,587 --> 00:22:01,923
Wine, women,
and song, I guess.
410
00:22:02,523 --> 00:22:03,691
Come on.
411
00:22:03,724 --> 00:22:05,927
I was working
for a label in London,
412
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:09,462
and they needed someone in the
international department who spoke English.
413
00:22:09,496 --> 00:22:12,800
So, in Paris, je suis
Anglais, je parle Anglais.
414
00:22:12,834 --> 00:22:13,868
Been here ever since.
415
00:22:13,901 --> 00:22:15,536
And you worked with Jake Lion.
416
00:22:15,570 --> 00:22:18,539
I was supposed to be
his liaison here in Paris.
417
00:22:18,573 --> 00:22:20,608
Make sure he didn't
get into too much trouble.
418
00:22:21,742 --> 00:22:23,845
And he threw himself
into a river?
419
00:22:23,878 --> 00:22:25,012
I hate to say it,
420
00:22:25,046 --> 00:22:26,714
but you didn't do
too good a job.
421
00:22:26,747 --> 00:22:28,481
You think so?
I fucked up, did I?
422
00:22:28,516 --> 00:22:29,750
Yeah, maybe not.
423
00:22:29,784 --> 00:22:31,986
But there were lots of other
people there when he did it.
424
00:22:32,019 --> 00:22:33,754
- And you weren't there.
- No. Not at that moment.
425
00:22:33,788 --> 00:22:36,057
So I don't really know
what happened.
426
00:22:36,090 --> 00:22:38,960
I'm asking because there still
seems to be some questions
427
00:22:38,993 --> 00:22:41,494
about whether his body
was even found or not.
428
00:22:41,529 --> 00:22:43,197
The answer is yes and no.
429
00:22:43,231 --> 00:22:45,199
What do you mean?
430
00:22:45,233 --> 00:22:47,201
It's not really
a dinner conversation.
431
00:22:47,235 --> 00:22:48,736
I've got a strong stomach.
432
00:22:48,769 --> 00:22:49,770
Come on.
433
00:22:50,238 --> 00:22:51,772
Okay.
434
00:22:51,806 --> 00:22:54,609
So, a corpse
bobs to the surface
435
00:22:54,642 --> 00:22:57,612
about a year later,
in terrible condition.
436
00:22:57,645 --> 00:23:01,115
Eyes gone, nose gone.
You don't want to know.
437
00:23:01,148 --> 00:23:04,451
There's more bodies floating in
the Seine than you would imagine.
438
00:23:04,484 --> 00:23:05,452
Suicides?
439
00:23:05,485 --> 00:23:08,589
Yeah. For lonely people,
the river is a friend.
440
00:23:08,623 --> 00:23:11,491
So, how did this particular body
become Jake Lion?
441
00:23:11,525 --> 00:23:12,593
Simple, really.
442
00:23:12,627 --> 00:23:16,564
Someone at that morgue
had to identify the corpse.
443
00:23:16,597 --> 00:23:19,033
Jake Lion's name
was among the missing.
444
00:23:19,066 --> 00:23:21,802
Voila! Case closed.
445
00:23:21,836 --> 00:23:24,071
And that's the body buried
at Pere-Lachaise?
446
00:23:24,105 --> 00:23:25,239
Exactement.
447
00:23:25,273 --> 00:23:27,108
But apparently,
he had a brother
448
00:23:27,141 --> 00:23:30,111
who came over
to identify the body, right?
449
00:23:30,144 --> 00:23:33,514
Yeah. I think the record company
had something to do with that,
450
00:23:33,547 --> 00:23:34,949
but I don't know the details.
451
00:23:34,982 --> 00:23:37,151
It was above my paygrade.
452
00:23:37,184 --> 00:23:38,886
The record company?
453
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,489
Yeah. Jake Lion dead meant
lots of records could be sold.
454
00:23:42,523 --> 00:23:43,958
Jake Lion just missing?
455
00:23:44,659 --> 00:23:46,027
Meant nothing.
456
00:23:46,060 --> 00:23:48,262
And the record label, the company
I was working for here in Paris,
457
00:23:48,296 --> 00:23:49,764
they paid for the burial
458
00:23:49,797 --> 00:23:51,766
and they gave Jake's brother,
who is broke,
459
00:23:51,799 --> 00:23:54,902
quite a lot of money
to sign off on the royalties.
460
00:23:54,936 --> 00:23:56,570
Win-win situation.
461
00:23:56,604 --> 00:23:58,839
For everyone but Jake Lion.
462
00:23:58,873 --> 00:24:00,675
But still, nobody understands
463
00:24:00,708 --> 00:24:03,177
why this guy
would take his own life.
464
00:24:03,210 --> 00:24:04,312
Including me.
465
00:24:04,345 --> 00:24:07,581
It wasn't even drugs,
so why do you think he did it?
466
00:24:07,615 --> 00:24:09,183
Honestly, I don't know.
467
00:24:09,216 --> 00:24:10,718
But I do remember
468
00:24:10,751 --> 00:24:12,586
there was an insurance policy.
469
00:24:12,620 --> 00:24:14,956
Our head office
in the USA canceled it
470
00:24:14,989 --> 00:24:16,791
because rumor had it,
471
00:24:16,824 --> 00:24:18,693
Jake had a terminal illness,
472
00:24:18,726 --> 00:24:19,860
was dying,
473
00:24:19,894 --> 00:24:21,862
and his brother
was the beneficiary.
474
00:24:21,896 --> 00:24:23,097
I do remember that.
475
00:24:23,130 --> 00:24:24,865
Be that as it may,
476
00:24:24,899 --> 00:24:28,769
we decided on this side of the
pond, to keep paying the insurance.
477
00:24:28,803 --> 00:24:30,004
But why did you guys do that?
478
00:24:30,037 --> 00:24:32,173
Because Paris
isn't New York, is it?
479
00:24:32,206 --> 00:24:33,541
Speaking of which,
480
00:24:33,574 --> 00:24:36,877
you should let me
show you around Paris.
481
00:24:36,911 --> 00:24:39,280
I hope you take
better care of me
482
00:24:39,313 --> 00:24:40,815
than you did Jake Lion.
483
00:24:40,848 --> 00:24:42,583

I never could believe
501
00:26:12,973 --> 00:26:15,843
that the Phantom
actually lived there.
502
00:26:15,876 --> 00:26:18,946
I think he lives
on Broadway now.
503
00:26:18,979 --> 00:26:22,783
Kathy Madison thinks Jake has
something to do with the Phantom.
504
00:26:22,817 --> 00:26:24,385
Like he is a Phantom?
505
00:26:24,418 --> 00:26:27,021
Like there is a mystery
I have to solve.
506
00:26:27,054 --> 00:26:28,189
Hmm.
507
00:26:30,391 --> 00:26:33,394
If Jake Lion is alive,
the only mystery is
508
00:26:33,427 --> 00:26:35,262
why that bloke
is not in Beverly Hills
509
00:26:35,296 --> 00:26:36,997
hanging out by a swimming pool.
510
00:26:37,031 --> 00:26:39,300
Maybe he didn't want all that.
511
00:26:39,333 --> 00:26:42,436
You're saying a metro
is a cooler place to hang out?
512
00:26:42,470 --> 00:26:45,372
Well, you know,
he came from the military.
513
00:26:45,406 --> 00:26:46,440
What do you mean?
514
00:26:46,474 --> 00:26:48,142
I was googling him last night.
515
00:26:48,175 --> 00:26:50,678
Divorced parents,
father in the army,
516
00:26:50,711 --> 00:26:52,446
a brother somewhere,
messed up.
517
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,783
If you were Jake Lion,
wouldn't you have resurfaced?
518
00:26:55,816 --> 00:26:56,851
Why now?
519
00:26:56,884 --> 00:26:59,186
Take a victory lap,
reap the rewards
520
00:26:59,220 --> 00:27:00,955
instead of playing
in a Paris metro,
521
00:27:00,988 --> 00:27:03,090
if that's where he actually is.
522
00:27:11,232 --> 00:27:14,401
Well, that's better than living
down in the sewer
523
00:27:14,435 --> 00:27:15,302
like the Phantom.
524
00:27:15,336 --> 00:27:18,105
I know where
the Phantom used to live.
525
00:27:18,139 --> 00:27:20,708
Tell me where you used to live.
526
00:27:21,876 --> 00:27:24,178
Believe me, I've been there.
527
00:27:25,246 --> 00:27:27,047
What do you mean?
528
00:27:27,081 --> 00:27:29,383
I kind of lived

529
00:27:29,416 --> 00:27:33,721
You see, I lost both
of my parents too soon.
530
00:27:34,221 --> 00:27:35,689
I felt lost, too.
531
00:27:36,423 --> 00:27:38,726
And there was a man
532
00:27:39,460 --> 00:27:41,829
who took me under his wings
533
00:27:42,763 --> 00:27:44,732
and turned my nosedive
534
00:27:44,765 --> 00:27:47,968
into a pretty painful
crash landing,
535
00:27:48,002 --> 00:27:49,170
so to speak.
536
00:27:50,738 --> 00:27:51,939
For that reason,
537
00:27:52,907 --> 00:27:55,743
I need time to feel safe.

I think I should just
go back to New York, Joe.
545
00:28:24,071 --> 00:28:26,073
I've been searching
the metro for days,
546
00:28:26,106 --> 00:28:28,309
but I can't look
in every station.
547
00:28:28,342 --> 00:28:30,778
That would take forever.
548
00:28:30,811 --> 00:28:32,947
Listen, I have
an idea for you.
549
00:28:32,980 --> 00:28:34,448
There's a bar up in Pigalle.
550
00:28:34,481 --> 00:28:36,951
It's where all
the buskers hang out.
551
00:28:36,984 --> 00:28:39,386
Why don't you go up there
and see what you can find out?
552
00:28:40,555 --> 00:28:41,889
You want to tag along?
553
00:28:42,890 --> 00:28:43,891
Not really.
554
00:28:44,992 --> 00:28:47,294
I've got too much work.
555
00:28:47,328 --> 00:28:49,830
And I think you'll do
better up there on your own.
556
00:28:49,863 --> 00:28:51,332
Wear a short skirt.
557
00:28:51,365 --> 00:28:52,967
Fuck you.
558
00:29:13,954 --> 00:29:16,056
Hey, mate, pour me a beer.
559
00:29:17,559 --> 00:29:20,394
Excuse me. Do you play
in the metro?
560
00:29:20,427 --> 00:29:23,163
Sometimes. Today I did.
561
00:29:23,197 --> 00:29:25,399
Not much money there anymore.
562
00:29:25,432 --> 00:29:27,602
Chinese don't go for my music,
I'm afraid.
563
00:29:27,636 --> 00:29:29,504
What kind of music do you play?
564
00:29:29,537 --> 00:29:30,938
Flamenco.
565
00:29:30,971 --> 00:29:33,841
But heavy metal flamenco,
like Morente.
566
00:29:33,874 --> 00:29:35,109
Okay.
567
00:29:35,142 --> 00:29:37,579
I'm looking for a musician
who plays in the metro.
568
00:29:37,612 --> 00:29:38,879
American guy.
569
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,383
Looks like a holdout
from the '70s.
570
00:29:42,416 --> 00:29:44,852
He plays guitar. Long hair.
571
00:29:44,885 --> 00:29:46,186
Sounds like me.
572
00:29:46,220 --> 00:29:47,888
Yeah, something like you.
573
00:29:48,956 --> 00:29:51,458
Well, there is this guy.
574
00:29:51,492 --> 00:29:54,028
I sometimes hear him
at Pere-Lachaise on Fridays.
575
00:29:55,029 --> 00:29:57,231
- What's today?
- Thursday.
576
00:29:57,264 --> 00:29:58,633
Try at around 9:00,
577
00:29:58,667 --> 00:30:00,401
when everyone is going to work.
578
00:30:00,434 --> 00:30:03,404
- That's the best time.
- I will. Thanks a lot.
579
00:30:03,437 --> 00:30:04,838
Save your change,
580
00:30:04,872 --> 00:30:06,373
your beer is on me.
581
00:30:06,407 --> 00:30:07,609
Gracias, guapa.
582
00:30:09,410 --> 00:30:10,844
Tell me,
583
00:30:10,878 --> 00:30:12,479
why are you looking for him?
584
00:30:12,514 --> 00:30:14,516

00:33:34,782 --> 00:33:37,251
Sorry, I don't have any euros,
623
00:33:37,284 --> 00:33:40,254
and I suppose you don't take
American Express?
624
00:33:40,287 --> 00:33:42,657
Sure.
625
00:33:42,690 --> 00:33:46,493
Amex, Mastercard, Visa.
626
00:33:46,528 --> 00:33:49,062
You give me the card,
I'll take it with me.
627
00:33:49,764 --> 00:33:51,465
Can I talk to you
for a moment?
628
00:33:52,232 --> 00:33:53,601
I don't know.
629
00:33:53,635 --> 00:33:55,102
I'm kind of busy now,
630
00:33:55,135 --> 00:33:56,804
can't you see?
631
00:33:56,838 --> 00:33:58,806
Can't leave
the store unattended.
632
00:34:00,340 --> 00:34:02,409
So, can I offer you a drink?
633
00:34:03,611 --> 00:34:05,078
I already have a drink.
634
00:34:06,714 --> 00:34:08,550
You want some?
635
00:34:08,583 --> 00:34:12,119
But I'd really like to ask you
a few questions.
636
00:34:12,152 --> 00:34:13,153
Yeah?
637
00:34:14,288 --> 00:34:15,557
Questions about what?
638
00:34:16,490 --> 00:34:18,225
About the old times,
639
00:34:19,226 --> 00:34:21,261
Jake.
640
00:34:21,295 --> 00:34:25,232
I don't know what old times
you might be referring to,
641
00:34:25,265 --> 00:34:29,637
and my name
is not Jake either.
642
00:34:29,671 --> 00:34:33,340
So why don't you just get on,
move along,
643
00:34:33,373 --> 00:34:35,475
and go visit
Jim Morrison's grave
644
00:34:35,510 --> 00:34:37,512
with the rest of the tourists?
645
00:34:38,046 --> 00:34:39,581
I am not a tourist,
646
00:34:39,614 --> 00:34:40,815
I'm a journalist.
647
00:34:40,848 --> 00:34:43,718
And I'm here to write a story.
648
00:34:43,751 --> 00:34:46,554
I don't care who you are
or what you do.
649
00:34:46,588 --> 00:34:48,790
And I suppose you're
just one more American
650
00:34:48,823 --> 00:34:51,726
poking her nose
into other people's business.
651
00:34:51,759 --> 00:34:53,493
Now, if you want
to buy me a drink,
652
00:34:54,194 --> 00:34:56,898
I might accept your hospitality.
653
00:34:56,931 --> 00:34:59,901
But if you call me
Jake again,
654
00:34:59,934 --> 00:35:03,638
I might slit
your pretty little throat.
655
00:35:03,671 --> 00:35:06,106
I don't have a lot to lose
at this point.
656
00:35:06,641 --> 00:35:07,875
You got a temper.
657
00:35:08,910 --> 00:35:11,345
- Sometimes.
- Okay.
658
00:35:11,378 --> 00:35:13,615
I'm sorry if I offended you.
659
00:35:13,648 --> 00:35:15,182
Let's start over.
660
00:35:15,215 --> 00:35:16,751
I'm Meg Trudeau,
661
00:35:16,784 --> 00:35:19,821
and I write
for Rolling Stone magazine.
662
00:35:19,854 --> 00:35:22,924
And I think you have a great
voice, whoever you are.
663
00:35:23,490 --> 00:35:25,526
A real music lover, eh?
664
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:27,494
Yes, I like music,
665
00:35:27,528 --> 00:35:29,262
and I write about music,
666
00:35:29,296 --> 00:35:31,298
especially your kind of music.
667
00:35:31,331 --> 00:35:34,636
Hold on, you've got some kind
of a French accent.
668
00:35:34,669 --> 00:35:36,470
Are you bullshitting me?
669
00:35:36,504 --> 00:35:38,740
Not at all. I am French.
670
00:35:38,773 --> 00:35:41,542
But I work in New York,
I live in New York.
671
00:35:41,576 --> 00:35:43,945
In fact, I wish I was
in New York now.
672
00:35:44,779 --> 00:35:46,581
Well, then I'd say
673
00:35:46,614 --> 00:35:49,349
you're some kind of mixed up,
shook up girl.
674
00:35:49,383 --> 00:35:51,552
Sounds like
the title of a song.
675
00:35:51,586 --> 00:35:53,788
It is. Willy DeVille.
676
00:35:53,821 --> 00:35:56,624
- Dead now.
- Should have known.
677
00:35:56,658 --> 00:35:58,626
You said something
about buying me a drink?
678
00:35:58,660 --> 00:35:59,661
Mm-hmm.
679
00:36:00,494 --> 00:36:01,495
Let's go.
680
00:36:02,730 --> 00:36:03,731
I got it.
681
00:36:45,907 --> 00:36:46,908
What do you want?
682
00:37:01,989 --> 00:37:03,024
Okay.
683
00:37:04,759 --> 00:37:06,627
No, only for today.
684
00:37:13,467 --> 00:37:14,602
Do you know Jake Lion?
685
00:37:15,737 --> 00:37:16,771
I know he's dead.
686
00:37:17,471 --> 00:37:18,906
Buried over there.
687
00:37:18,940 --> 00:37:21,542
Next to his buddy, Jim Morrison.
688
00:37:21,576 --> 00:37:22,442
Like I said,
689
00:37:22,476 --> 00:37:24,979
you can go pay him a visit
if you want.
690
00:37:25,012 --> 00:37:27,882
I'm sure he'd be thrilled
if you sit on his...
691
00:37:27,915 --> 00:37:29,483
grave.
692
00:37:29,517 --> 00:37:31,586
He threw himself into the
Seine, didn't he?
693
00:37:32,319 --> 00:37:33,688
That's right.
694
00:37:33,721 --> 00:37:35,288
But they didn't bring him
to Pere-Lachaise
695
00:37:35,322 --> 00:37:36,924
until a year later.
696
00:37:36,958 --> 00:37:40,293
The river takes its time
burping up its dead.
697
00:37:50,037 --> 00:37:51,906
So,
you seem to know a lot about him.
698
00:37:51,939 --> 00:37:54,642
Jesus Christ!
You almost stabbed me
699
00:37:54,675 --> 00:37:56,376
when I mentioned his name.
700
00:37:56,409 --> 00:37:58,411
I don't like being disturbed
when I'm working.
701
00:37:59,346 --> 00:38:01,549
And there's something else.
702
00:38:01,582 --> 00:38:04,919
Jake Lion, he was my brother.
703
00:38:04,952 --> 00:38:08,388
So, you are the brother
the record company paid off?
704
00:38:08,421 --> 00:38:11,391
I'm the only brother
Jake Lion ever had.
705
00:38:11,424 --> 00:38:14,494
And I drank that money away
a long time ago.
706
00:38:14,996 --> 00:38:17,832
I'm Erik Lion.
707
00:38:17,865 --> 00:38:20,635
- So, what are you doing here?
- What do you think?
708
00:38:20,668 --> 00:38:22,870
Playing my guitar in the metro.
709
00:38:22,904 --> 00:38:25,907
You're not too observant for a journalist, are you?
710
00:38:25,940 --> 00:38:27,975
I've been living in Paris
for 40 years.
711
00:38:28,709 --> 00:38:29,911
Came over
712
00:38:29,944 --> 00:38:32,479
when they finally found
Jake's body.
713
00:38:32,513 --> 00:38:34,414
Someone had to identify it.
714
00:38:34,447 --> 00:38:36,717
And that someone was me,
715
00:38:36,751 --> 00:38:38,786
his brother, Erik.
716
00:38:38,820 --> 00:38:39,821
Got it?
717
00:38:40,688 --> 00:38:41,923
Oh, shit.
718
00:38:41,956 --> 00:38:44,525
This is not going to go
down well at Rolling Stone.
719
00:38:44,559 --> 00:38:46,761
Kathy won't be happy at all.
720
00:38:46,794 --> 00:38:49,362
- Kathy Madison?
- You knew her?
721
00:38:49,396 --> 00:38:51,532
Not me.
722
00:38:51,566 --> 00:38:54,902
But I knew that her and Jake were
more than friends at some point.
723
00:38:54,936 --> 00:38:56,103
Mind you, personally,
724
00:38:56,137 --> 00:38:57,805
I never went
for those rich chicks
725
00:38:57,839 --> 00:38:59,707
pretending to be hippies.
726
00:38:59,740 --> 00:39:02,610
Used to call them
"Trust fund babes."
727
00:39:02,643 --> 00:39:05,646
Funny that Kathy never told me
Jake's brother is alive.
728
00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:08,616
Or maybe I've been dead
a long time too,
729
00:39:08,649 --> 00:39:10,618
'cause no one has heard
from me in years.
730
00:39:11,586 --> 00:39:12,954
I'm like a ghost.
731
00:39:24,198 --> 00:39:26,000
Like the Phantom of the Opera?
732
00:39:27,535 --> 00:39:28,936
Yeah.
733
00:39:28,970 --> 00:39:31,072
Like that guy who put on a mask,
734
00:39:31,105 --> 00:39:32,405
hid from the world,
735
00:39:33,207 --> 00:39:35,076
because he was so fucking ugly
736
00:39:36,244 --> 00:39:37,545
and deformed.
737
00:39:38,579 --> 00:39:39,914
He was a genius
738
00:39:40,681 --> 00:39:42,049
but nobody cared.
739
00:39:43,784 --> 00:39:45,418
And Kathy Madison,
740
00:39:45,452 --> 00:39:47,021
the rock 'n roll heiress,
741
00:39:47,054 --> 00:39:50,057
has sent you here
to find Jake Lion.
742
00:39:50,091 --> 00:39:51,993
What, does she still got
a thing for him?
743
00:39:52,026 --> 00:39:53,694
Or is it just, uh...
744
00:39:53,728 --> 00:39:56,831
necrophilia or some shit?
745
00:39:56,864 --> 00:39:58,900
Someone told us he was alive
746
00:39:58,933 --> 00:40:01,736
and he saw him here, in Paris,
747
00:40:01,769 --> 00:40:03,504
but it might be you
that he saw.
748
00:40:04,739 --> 00:40:06,807
Who told you that crap?
749
00:40:07,942 --> 00:40:09,810
A guy called Plynth.
750
00:40:09,844 --> 00:40:12,146
Apparently, he was a roadie
for The Words.
751
00:40:13,648 --> 00:40:17,885
Plynth the Persian,
Jake's nanny.
752
00:40:17,919 --> 00:40:21,789
He told us that he heard you
singing a song of Jake
753
00:40:21,822 --> 00:40:23,791
that had never been recorded.
754
00:40:23,824 --> 00:40:27,228
In fact, something he wrote
shortly before he died.
755
00:40:28,195 --> 00:40:29,397
Okay.
756
00:40:29,429 --> 00:40:32,233
Now, I'm going to tell you
something very few people know.
757
00:40:32,266 --> 00:40:36,237
It was me who taught Jake
how to write songs,
758
00:40:36,270 --> 00:40:37,705
how to write lyrics,
759
00:40:37,738 --> 00:40:40,508
how to put them with the
chords, all of that shit.
760
00:40:40,541 --> 00:40:43,077
In fact, most of those
The Words songs
761
00:40:43,110 --> 00:40:45,646
were co-composed by both of us.
762
00:40:47,782 --> 00:40:50,584
I knew those songs
better than anybody.
763
00:40:51,118 --> 00:40:52,620
And, in fact,
764
00:40:52,653 --> 00:40:54,522
years after I left the band,
765
00:40:54,555 --> 00:40:57,525
and before Jake killed himself,
766
00:40:57,558 --> 00:41:00,094
he would send me cassettes
of those new songs
767
00:41:01,729 --> 00:41:03,798
to approve or improve.
768
00:41:03,831 --> 00:41:05,800
Don't I have a right
to sing them?
769
00:41:05,833 --> 00:41:09,770
Looks like you
just blew my Pulitzer Prize.
770
00:41:10,671 --> 00:41:11,672
Sorry.
771
00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:15,109
Hey, Max, la note.
772
00:41:16,577 --> 00:41:17,979
So, what now?
773
00:41:19,347 --> 00:41:21,515
I got an idea.
774
00:41:21,549 --> 00:41:25,186
How about the story of Jake Lion
told by his brother?
775
00:41:25,219 --> 00:41:27,688
That wouldn't be
too bad an angle either.
776
00:41:30,257 --> 00:41:34,061
Why the fuck
would I want to do that?
777
00:41:35,696 --> 00:41:38,299
Let his poor soul
rest in peace.
778
00:41:39,633 --> 00:41:41,102
Isn't that what he wanted?
779
00:41:41,135 --> 00:41:42,169
Look,
780
00:41:42,203 --> 00:41:45,973
everybody thinks Jake
went crazy for no reason.
781
00:41:46,007 --> 00:41:49,043
Maybe you could throw
a light on that.
782
00:41:49,076 --> 00:41:51,812
Like a fresh insight
on an old story.
783
00:41:52,947 --> 00:41:56,150
There's nothing fresh
about a dead man.
784
00:41:58,052 --> 00:42:01,188
I'm willing to pay you
for your time.
785
00:42:01,222 --> 00:42:03,991
But that's an insight
that could interest me.
786
00:42:05,026 --> 00:42:06,894
How long are you
going to be here?
787
00:42:06,927 --> 00:42:08,029
Three more days.
788
00:42:08,662 --> 00:42:09,663
Okay.
789
00:42:10,598 --> 00:42:12,166
Here's the deal.
790
00:42:12,199 --> 00:42:14,268
You got three appointments
791
00:42:14,301 --> 00:42:17,004
at the place and the time
792
00:42:17,038 --> 00:42:18,039
I say.
793
00:42:20,908 --> 00:42:22,676
But what you gotta do now...
794
00:42:24,645 --> 00:42:25,713
Alright.
795
00:42:38,325 --> 00:42:40,594
By the way,
do you live near here?
796
00:42:41,162 --> 00:42:42,663
A place I could visit?
797
00:42:43,097 --> 00:42:45,199
No way.
798
00:42:45,232 --> 00:42:48,135
Where I live has got
nothing to do with Jake Lion.
799
00:42:48,169 --> 00:42:50,037
And the last thing I need
800
00:42:50,071 --> 00:42:53,908
is Kathy Madison
knocking on my door.
801
00:42:53,941 --> 00:42:57,378
I was hoping you'd say
that you lived in the cemetery.
802
00:42:57,411 --> 00:42:59,680
Another good angle
for the story.
803
00:43:01,015 --> 00:43:02,349
Brilliant angle.
804
00:43:03,751 --> 00:43:04,752
I gotta go.
805
00:43:05,820 --> 00:43:07,822
What did you say
your name was, again?
806
00:43:07,855 --> 00:43:09,256
Meg Trudeau.
807
00:43:10,191 --> 00:43:12,093
Okay, Meg Trudeau,
808
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:14,261
I'll see you tomorrow.
809
00:43:14,862 --> 00:43:16,363
Notre-Dame.
810
00:43:16,397 --> 00:43:18,632
In the garden, in the back.
811
00:43:18,666 --> 00:43:20,167
Five o'clock, sharp.
812
00:43:20,835 --> 00:43:22,002
Don't be late.
813
00:43:22,036 --> 00:43:23,637
Don't bring anyone.
814
00:43:24,071 --> 00:43:25,806
And no photos
815
00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:27,141
or I'm gone.
816
00:43:29,343 --> 00:43:31,112
Just one question
before you go.
817
00:43:33,147 --> 00:43:35,349
Come on,
I gave you an advance.
818
00:43:39,253 --> 00:43:40,821
What happened to your legs?
819
00:43:42,356 --> 00:43:43,657
My legs?
820
00:43:44,825 --> 00:43:47,228
I guess I missed my polio shot.
821
00:44:16,190 --> 00:44:17,758
And you believe him?
822
00:44:17,791 --> 00:44:20,060
I mean, I believe
he's not Jake Lion.
823
00:44:20,094 --> 00:44:22,229
This guy's not a rock star,
he never was.
824
00:44:22,263 --> 00:44:25,032
He is just playing
for change in the metro.
825
00:44:25,065 --> 00:44:27,234
But he could be Jake's brother.
826
00:44:27,268 --> 00:44:29,203
The story kind of makes sense.
827
00:44:29,236 --> 00:44:30,371
That's not what I mean.
828
00:44:30,404 --> 00:44:32,439
I mean, how do you know
he's not just some guy
829
00:44:32,473 --> 00:44:34,441
playing the guitar
in the metro,
830
00:44:34,475 --> 00:44:37,811
nothing to do with Jake Lion
or his brother? Just a nobody.
831
00:44:37,845 --> 00:44:39,146
I don't think he is a nobody.
832
00:44:39,180 --> 00:44:41,248
I think he is somebody
with a story to tell.
833
00:44:41,282 --> 00:44:42,716
Are you sure?
834
00:44:42,750 --> 00:44:45,052
I'm not. But actually,
you knew him.
835
00:44:45,085 --> 00:44:47,354
You should come along
with me next time.
836
00:44:47,388 --> 00:44:49,056
No excuses.
837
00:44:55,329 --> 00:44:59,099

00:44:59,133 --> 00:45:02,970

You frightened me.
862
00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:54,381
I've been waiting an hour.
863
00:46:54,915 --> 00:46:56,350
I've always been here.
864
00:46:56,383 --> 00:46:58,952
I tried to blend in
with the gargoyles,
865
00:46:59,887 --> 00:47:01,322
on top of the church.
866
00:47:01,355 --> 00:47:04,358
- Do you mind if I record our conversation?
- Oh, no.
867
00:47:04,391 --> 00:47:06,093
- No way.
- Why not?
868
00:47:07,394 --> 00:47:08,596
Liabilities.
869
00:47:08,630 --> 00:47:10,097
Liabilities of what?
870
00:47:10,898 --> 00:47:13,367
Claims, lawsuits.
871
00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:16,303
You know,
sometimes I drink too much.
872
00:47:16,337 --> 00:47:17,471
Really?
873
00:47:18,072 --> 00:47:20,274
You could have fooled me.
874
00:47:21,175 --> 00:47:25,245
And I might say something
I shouldn't say.
875
00:47:25,279 --> 00:47:28,248
And if that goes down
on a tape recorder...
876
00:47:29,917 --> 00:47:32,319
You remember what happened
to President Nixon.
877
00:47:32,353 --> 00:47:33,555
What happened to Nixon?
878
00:47:35,322 --> 00:47:36,924
No. Nothing.
879
00:47:36,957 --> 00:47:40,194
Okay. I'll try to get down
everything you say
880
00:47:40,227 --> 00:47:42,062
as accurately I can.
881
00:47:42,597 --> 00:47:45,332
I hope I can at least
882
00:47:46,133 --> 00:47:48,369
take some notes?
883
00:47:48,402 --> 00:47:50,904
Yeah, as long
as there is no microphone
884
00:47:50,938 --> 00:47:52,239
hidden in your pen.
885
00:47:52,272 --> 00:47:54,609
One, two, three.
886
00:47:56,076 --> 00:47:57,277
So,
887
00:47:57,311 --> 00:47:59,179
what did Jake look like
888
00:47:59,213 --> 00:48:02,116
when you went
to identify his body?
889
00:48:02,149 --> 00:48:03,217
Hmm.
890
00:48:04,184 --> 00:48:05,486
Nice first question.
891
00:48:07,555 --> 00:48:11,959
Well, let's just say that
being underwater for a year
892
00:48:11,992 --> 00:48:14,161
didn't do much
for his complexion.
893
00:48:16,296 --> 00:48:18,332
Not much was left of his face.
894
00:48:18,365 --> 00:48:20,334
But he broke his arm
when we were kids,
895
00:48:20,367 --> 00:48:21,603
fell from a tree.
896
00:48:21,636 --> 00:48:23,904
And I could still see
the scar there.
897
00:48:24,606 --> 00:48:26,206
So, that kind of nailed it,
898
00:48:26,240 --> 00:48:28,375
and I signed off
on some bullshit papers,
899
00:48:28,409 --> 00:48:31,178
put his body in my backpack,
and walked out.
900
00:48:31,211 --> 00:48:32,312
Really?
901
00:48:32,346 --> 00:48:34,649
No. Jesus Christ.
902
00:48:35,617 --> 00:48:38,185
We buried him in Pere-Lachaise
903
00:48:38,218 --> 00:48:41,523
'cause his friend said
he liked to hang out there.
904
00:48:41,556 --> 00:48:43,625
I think the record company
pulled some strings
905
00:48:43,658 --> 00:48:44,793
to get him in there.
906
00:48:44,826 --> 00:48:48,262
And when that was all done,
you just stayed in Paris?
907
00:48:48,295 --> 00:48:52,266
Because there was no reason
to go home again.
908
00:48:52,299 --> 00:48:54,569
The United States
is not the best place
909
00:48:55,436 --> 00:48:57,971
for a disabled person.
910
00:48:58,005 --> 00:49:01,141
If you're not Superman,
you're kind of screwed.
911
00:49:01,709 --> 00:49:03,745
I inherited his guitar,
912
00:49:05,547 --> 00:49:08,750
and the record company gave me
some cash to keep me quiet.
913
00:49:08,783 --> 00:49:10,184
Quiet about what?
914
00:49:10,217 --> 00:49:12,453
Oh, I mean, I signed off
on his royalties,
915
00:49:12,486 --> 00:49:14,354
promised not to
bother them anymore.
916
00:49:15,222 --> 00:49:17,291
And Paris became your home.
917
00:49:18,827 --> 00:49:20,227
A home
918
00:49:21,495 --> 00:49:24,064
implies some kind of stability,
919
00:49:24,699 --> 00:49:26,033
so I wouldn't say that.
920
00:49:27,434 --> 00:49:29,336
Come on, let's take a walk.
921
00:49:32,507 --> 00:49:34,441
Do your legs bother you?
922
00:49:34,475 --> 00:49:37,712
No, but sitting next to
this damn church does.
923
00:49:52,493 --> 00:49:54,796
So, what kind of guy was Jake?
924
00:49:56,096 --> 00:49:57,097
Jake?
925
00:49:57,765 --> 00:49:59,199
He didn't say much
926
00:49:59,868 --> 00:50:01,368
even when he was a kid.
927
00:50:03,070 --> 00:50:05,105
But I remember him saying
to me once
928
00:50:05,573 --> 00:50:06,708
that his songs
929
00:50:07,742 --> 00:50:09,677
knew more about him
930
00:50:09,711 --> 00:50:11,846
than he knew about his songs.
931
00:50:13,615 --> 00:50:16,784
For some reason,
I imagined him as a tough guy.
932
00:50:16,818 --> 00:50:19,554
But things got to him
all the same.
933
00:50:19,587 --> 00:50:22,356
I mean, don't things
get to everyone?
934
00:50:23,390 --> 00:50:24,526
You know,
935
00:50:24,559 --> 00:50:26,126
to be a rock star,
936
00:50:26,794 --> 00:50:28,495
you need strong ears
937
00:50:28,963 --> 00:50:30,497
and a thick skin.
938
00:50:31,498 --> 00:50:33,768
But brains, talent...
939
00:50:34,869 --> 00:50:36,236
that's optional.
940
00:50:37,672 --> 00:50:41,375
So, what's so great
about playing in the metro?
941
00:50:42,610 --> 00:50:46,346
What's so great about playing
in Madison Square Garden?
942
00:50:46,380 --> 00:50:48,650
Did you ever play
in Madison Square Garden?
943
00:50:49,817 --> 00:50:51,619
Uh, no. Not me.
944
00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:54,622
But I saw Jake play there.
945
00:50:56,758 --> 00:51:00,460
And all he could see
was the first four rows.
946
00:51:00,494 --> 00:51:03,230
And that was full
of music business people.
947
00:51:03,765 --> 00:51:06,433
And he didn't like that.
948
00:51:06,466 --> 00:51:10,103
Well, Jake said that when you
first get into the business,
949
00:51:10,137 --> 00:51:12,540
you know, you're so impressed
950
00:51:12,574 --> 00:51:14,642
by these big shot executives
951
00:51:15,475 --> 00:51:16,544
'cause you think
952
00:51:17,311 --> 00:51:18,880
they control your life.
953
00:51:20,147 --> 00:51:21,381
But then,
954
00:51:21,415 --> 00:51:23,083
one day you realize
955
00:51:23,918 --> 00:51:25,687
you want to play
for the real people.
956
00:51:27,187 --> 00:51:29,791
Are you talking about you
or about Jake now?
957
00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:34,494
What's the difference?
958
00:51:38,700 --> 00:51:41,903
There is no music
without business.
959
00:51:41,936 --> 00:51:44,639
Sounds like a typical
loser's philosophy to me.
960
00:51:45,974 --> 00:51:48,141
You know what?
961
00:51:48,175 --> 00:51:50,612
I think you're trying
to provoke me.
962
00:51:51,779 --> 00:51:53,246
That was Jake's thing.
963
00:51:53,781 --> 00:51:55,282
I was never into that.
964
00:51:55,950 --> 00:51:59,654
So, Jake wanted the stardom.
965
00:51:59,687 --> 00:52:03,725
Well, he fell for the glitter
and the gloom like they all do.
966
00:52:06,561 --> 00:52:11,231
But what he couldn't stand
were the inconsistencies.
967
00:52:12,867 --> 00:52:15,603
He told me he'd be onstage
968
00:52:15,637 --> 00:52:18,573
singing for
thousands of people,
969
00:52:18,606 --> 00:52:21,576
and then he'd be back home,
in a hotel,
970
00:52:21,609 --> 00:52:23,945
trying to find something
to watch on TV.
971
00:52:25,747 --> 00:52:28,248
Said he couldn't stop
the screaming
972
00:52:28,750 --> 00:52:29,917
in his ears.
973
00:52:53,708 --> 00:52:56,476
Hey, bonjour, my friend.
974
00:53:13,661 --> 00:53:16,931
Sacred objects.
Gateway to the soul.
975
00:53:18,966 --> 00:53:23,236
Well, you were saying that
the pressure of being a star
976
00:53:23,270 --> 00:53:26,874
or whatever it was
you were describing,
977
00:53:26,908 --> 00:53:29,610
is what drove Jake
to commit suicide.
978
00:53:29,644 --> 00:53:31,946
But, I mean,
if he didn't like it,
979
00:53:31,979 --> 00:53:34,682
why didn't he just retire?
980
00:53:54,936 --> 00:53:58,405
Because
if he had retired,
981
00:53:58,438 --> 00:54:00,541
they never would have
forgiven him.
982
00:54:00,575 --> 00:54:02,543
The press would have
hounded him forever.
983
00:54:03,878 --> 00:54:05,980
But death redeems people.
984
00:54:06,881 --> 00:54:09,050
To die is to be reborn.
985
00:54:09,650 --> 00:54:12,887
Jake Lion is a legend now.
986
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:14,956
And he ain't never
going to grow old.

You know, had Jake been a
Greek god up on Mount Olympus,
1001
00:55:42,043 --> 00:55:43,644
he would have been fine.
1002
00:55:44,612 --> 00:55:47,582
But if those gods had to
come back to Holiday Inn
1003
00:55:47,615 --> 00:55:50,952
after doing their god-like shit
all day long,
1004
00:55:50,985 --> 00:55:52,887
they would have
committed suicide too.
1005
00:55:55,022 --> 00:55:57,692
You see, they turned Jake
into a god,
1006
00:55:57,725 --> 00:55:59,093
and he was a good god.
1007
00:55:59,994 --> 00:56:01,662
But they didn't tell him
1008
00:56:01,696 --> 00:56:03,064
it's a one way ticket.
1009
00:56:03,865 --> 00:56:05,132
There's no way back.
1010
00:56:05,967 --> 00:56:07,501
The only way back
1011
00:56:07,535 --> 00:56:09,402
was to jump off that bridge.
1012
00:56:09,971 --> 00:56:11,404
So that's what he did.
1013
00:56:12,773 --> 00:56:14,976
Jake jumped off that bridge
1014
00:56:15,009 --> 00:56:16,744
so his legend would live.
1015
00:56:20,014 --> 00:56:21,048
You know what?
1016
00:56:21,082 --> 00:56:24,185
I'm getting tired.
That's all I've got for today.
1017
00:56:24,218 --> 00:56:26,087
I just have a couple
of more questions.
1018
00:56:27,622 --> 00:56:28,756
No.
1019

No, no, no, no.
1020
00:56:31,125 --> 00:56:33,160
I don't have
a couple more answers.
1021
00:56:34,095 --> 00:56:35,630
I'll see you tomorrow,
1022
00:56:36,597 --> 00:56:37,665
same time.
1023
00:56:39,800 --> 00:56:41,168

Right.
1045
00:58:04,585 --> 00:58:06,187
He says he is the brother.
1046
00:58:06,220 --> 00:58:08,155
He knows about you and Jake.
1047
00:58:08,189 --> 00:58:09,991
Well, he might have
mentioned it a couple of times
1048
00:58:10,024 --> 00:58:12,893
but I don't remember
ever meeting him.
1049
00:58:12,927 --> 00:58:15,963
I thought he'd disappeared
during the Vietnam War.
1050
00:58:15,997 --> 00:58:18,699
Just vanished
or something like that.
1051
00:58:18,733 --> 00:58:22,603
So, what does any of this have
to do with Phantom of the Opera?
1052
00:58:22,636 --> 00:58:24,105
I don't get it.
1053
00:58:24,138 --> 00:58:27,274
I thought it would be
a good way to frame the story.
1054
00:58:27,308 --> 00:58:28,843
But if Jake is dead...
1055
00:58:29,577 --> 00:58:31,645
Seems that way.
1056
00:58:31,679 --> 00:58:34,181
So, I suppose you should be
getting back to New York.
1057
00:58:36,017 --> 00:58:38,319
This trail is going nowhere.
1058
00:58:38,352 --> 00:58:40,221
Give me a few days.
1059
00:58:40,254 --> 00:58:43,591
I've been searching online, and there
are hundreds of photos of Jake Lion,
1060
00:58:43,624 --> 00:58:46,327
but hardly anything
about his brother, Erik,
1061
00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:49,997
aside from he is listed
as a composer along with Jake
1062
00:58:50,031 --> 00:58:52,333
of some of The Words' songs.
1063
00:58:52,366 --> 00:58:53,868
Can't you find out anything?
1064
00:58:54,935 --> 00:58:56,203
Well,
1065
00:58:56,237 --> 00:58:58,072
I'll try,
1066
00:58:58,105 --> 00:59:01,308
but Jake's brother
is not the story we want,
1067
00:59:01,342 --> 00:59:03,978
and it's not the reason
I sent you to Paris either.
1068
00:59:04,011 --> 00:59:07,048
No, you expected me
to find Jake Lion.
1069
00:59:07,982 --> 00:59:09,083
Why not?
1070
00:59:10,785 --> 00:59:12,887
So we beat on,
1071
00:59:12,920 --> 00:59:15,089
boats against the current,
1072
00:59:15,122 --> 00:59:18,092
borne back ceaselessly
into the past.
1073
00:59:18,125 --> 00:59:21,395
If you start quoting
F. Scott Fitzgerald to me,
1074
00:59:21,429 --> 00:59:23,631
I'm going to jump
in the river too.

I have a meeting this afternoon
with Erik at the Opera.
1089
01:00:36,270 --> 01:00:39,173
It's a good time for you to try
and see if it's really him.
1090
01:00:39,206 --> 01:00:42,910
Okay, I'll play spy.
1091
01:00:42,943 --> 01:00:46,447
And can't we go to the police
to find out the whereabouts
1092
01:00:46,480 --> 01:00:48,015
of this Erik Lion guy?
1093
01:00:48,048 --> 01:00:50,084
I've got a contact there.
I'll see what I can do.
1094
01:00:51,185 --> 01:00:53,220
Thank you, darling.
1095
01:00:53,254 --> 01:00:54,455
You know better than that.
1096
01:01:25,052 --> 01:01:26,787
Look at this place.
1097
01:01:26,820 --> 01:01:28,389
The stories it could tell.
1098
01:01:29,524 --> 01:01:31,526
Like the one about the Phantom.
1099
01:01:31,560 --> 01:01:33,727
But I believe
the Phantom of the Opera,
1100
01:01:33,761 --> 01:01:35,296
he was a rocker at heart.
1101
01:01:35,996 --> 01:01:37,898
Of course he was.
1102
01:01:37,932 --> 01:01:40,234
Kind of like Alice Cooper.
1103
01:01:40,267 --> 01:01:43,538
But the Phantom liked to play
in the opera,
1104
01:01:43,572 --> 01:01:45,973
and I like to play
in the metro.
1105
01:01:46,006 --> 01:01:49,176
And what happens if the police
catch you playing down there,
1106
01:01:49,210 --> 01:01:50,878
in the metro without a license?
1107
01:01:51,312 --> 01:01:52,880
Nothing.
1108
01:01:52,913 --> 01:01:55,916
They leave me alone,
Le flic, the cops.
1109
01:01:55,950 --> 01:01:58,852
At first, they used
to throw me out.
1110
01:01:58,886 --> 01:02:02,389
I'd go upstairs, I'd be back
here in five minutes.
1111
01:02:03,457 --> 01:02:05,192
You know, they're music lovers.
1112
01:02:05,226 --> 01:02:07,962
I sing them a song,
they'll leave me alone.
1113
01:02:07,995 --> 01:02:10,231
They only throw you out
if you can't sing.
1114
01:02:11,799 --> 01:02:13,968
But how did you know
I didn't have a license?
1115
01:02:14,001 --> 01:02:16,103
I know you went to Vietnam, too.
1116
01:02:16,136 --> 01:02:17,805
Clever girl.
1117
01:02:17,838 --> 01:02:19,039
Doing your homework.
1118
01:02:20,107 --> 01:02:22,409
Ooh, naughty, too.
1119
01:02:24,311 --> 01:02:25,779
Come with me, quickly.
1120
01:03:03,217 --> 01:03:05,452
Where are you taking me?
1121
01:03:05,486 --> 01:03:07,454
Isn't this
what you wanted to see?
1122
01:03:07,488 --> 01:03:10,090
The home
of the Phantom of the Opera?
1123
01:03:11,425 --> 01:03:14,629
I could tell you about another
monster while we're down here.
1124
01:03:14,663 --> 01:03:15,829
My father.
1125
01:03:16,897 --> 01:03:19,933
- How about that?
- Your father?
1126
01:03:19,967 --> 01:03:24,438
Army lifer guy, retired as
a three-star general.
1127
01:03:24,471 --> 01:03:28,042
Maybe that explains
why Jake was such a rebel.
1128
01:03:28,942 --> 01:03:31,412
That doesn't explain shit!
1129
01:03:31,445 --> 01:03:33,847
You wanna play the shrink
or do you want to listen?
1130
01:03:33,881 --> 01:03:37,051
I'm so sorry. Please, go on.
1131
01:03:37,084 --> 01:03:40,254
Jake and I,
we grew up on Long Island.
1132
01:03:40,287 --> 01:03:43,457
The old man, he was out
in Washington D.C.
1133
01:03:44,391 --> 01:03:47,194
One time, Jake and The Words,
1134
01:03:47,227 --> 01:03:48,395
they were playing a gig there.
1135
01:03:48,429 --> 01:03:50,230
So, Jake decided
to pay him a visit,
1136
01:03:50,264 --> 01:03:51,465
I don't know in hopes of what.
1137
01:03:52,132 --> 01:03:54,001
And you know what happened?
1138
01:03:54,034 --> 01:03:56,103
The old man told him
to get a haircut
1139
01:03:56,136 --> 01:03:58,472
and slammed the door
in his face.
1140
01:04:01,175 --> 01:04:04,211
And yet, you just told me that
your father had no effect on Jake.
1141
01:04:05,079 --> 01:04:07,348
Jake hardly reacted.
1142
01:04:07,381 --> 01:04:09,517
Well, he got into heroin
for a year.
1143
01:04:10,250 --> 01:04:11,251
But finally,
1144
01:04:12,186 --> 01:04:13,287
the old man,
1145
01:04:14,388 --> 01:04:15,657
he just disowned him.
1146
01:04:16,558 --> 01:04:19,527
That was a big inconsistency
for Jake.
1147
01:04:19,561 --> 01:04:20,928
I'm so sorry.
1148
01:04:20,961 --> 01:04:23,897
There's nothing
to be sorry about.
1149
01:04:23,931 --> 01:04:26,300
C'est la vie,
c'est la guerre.
1150
01:04:26,333 --> 01:04:28,503
Wait, let me help you
with your guitar.
1151
01:04:28,536 --> 01:04:29,903
- No, no, no.
- Give it here.
1152
01:04:29,937 --> 01:04:31,338
I got it.
1153
01:04:31,372 --> 01:04:33,107

Bonjour.

01:06:46,574 --> 01:06:47,675
Let's see.
1182
01:06:52,312 --> 01:06:53,313
No.
1183
01:06:55,249 --> 01:06:57,017
I think, uh...
1184
01:06:59,219 --> 01:07:00,220
No.
1185
01:07:03,558 --> 01:07:04,993
Oh, yeah.
1186
01:07:07,662 --> 01:07:09,496
Will you look at this?
1187
01:07:11,498 --> 01:07:13,100
A smoking jacket.
1188
01:07:13,133 --> 01:07:15,335
Do you need a tuxedo?
What for?
1189
01:07:17,204 --> 01:07:19,339
I got a formal event
coming up.
1190
01:07:40,260 --> 01:07:41,328
So, how do I look?
1191
01:07:43,698 --> 01:07:45,198
You look
1192
01:07:45,232 --> 01:07:46,501
totally absurd.
1193
01:07:47,200 --> 01:07:49,169
No. But I mean in a good way.
1194
01:07:49,202 --> 01:07:50,203
Cool absurd.
1195
01:07:51,573 --> 01:07:53,240
Okay.
1196
01:07:53,273 --> 01:07:54,709
That's the look I'm going for.
1197
01:07:57,277 --> 01:07:58,713
You can pay the gentleman.
1198
01:08:00,180 --> 01:08:01,616
Subtract it from my fee.
1199
01:08:14,963 --> 01:08:16,363
- Merci.
- Merci.
1200
01:08:54,669 --> 01:08:56,738
So, what are we doing here?
1201
01:08:57,905 --> 01:08:59,674
There's going to be a concert.
1202
01:08:59,707 --> 01:09:00,708
For whom?
1203
01:09:01,141 --> 01:09:02,543
For the locals.
1204
01:09:02,577 --> 01:09:04,512
You're joking.
1205
01:09:04,545 --> 01:09:06,279
I never joke about birds.
1206
01:09:07,314 --> 01:09:09,316
They used to be dinosaurs once.
1207
01:09:09,349 --> 01:09:10,350
And?
1208
01:09:11,019 --> 01:09:12,553
You can be in my dream.
1209
01:09:12,587 --> 01:09:14,254
If I can be in yours.
1210
01:09:14,822 --> 01:09:16,758
Bob Dylan.
1211
01:09:16,791 --> 01:09:19,226
Yeah, whatever makes you happy.
1212
01:09:20,528 --> 01:09:22,930
I can be happy in ways
you couldn't imagine.
1213
01:09:22,964 --> 01:09:24,832
For instance?
1214
01:09:24,866 --> 01:09:28,201
Looking over Paris rooftops
at night
1215
01:09:28,235 --> 01:09:30,538
when the city loses
its human dimension
1216
01:09:31,506 --> 01:09:33,407
and everything makes sense.
1217
01:09:39,847 --> 01:09:40,848
Bonjour, Olivier.
1218
01:09:41,683 --> 01:09:42,984
Olivier...
1219
01:09:43,017 --> 01:09:44,652
What did you say
your name was?
1220
01:09:44,686 --> 01:09:46,353
- Meg.
- Meg.
1221
01:09:46,386 --> 01:09:47,955
Meg, Olivier.
1222
01:09:47,989 --> 01:09:49,256
Enchante.
1223
01:09:54,696 --> 01:09:56,430
Come on, let's get started.
1224
01:09:56,463 --> 01:09:58,599
The natives
are growing restless.
1225
01:09:58,633 --> 01:10:01,301
I think most of your public
are sleeping.
1226
01:10:01,903 --> 01:10:03,470
Even better.
1227
01:10:03,504 --> 01:10:05,305
Then I got nothing to lose.
1228
01:10:07,842 --> 01:10:11,713
Young lady, I reserve
my private booth for you.
1229
01:10:12,279 --> 01:10:14,015
It's booth number nine.
1230
01:10:14,048 --> 01:10:15,850
Merci beaucoup, monsieur.
1231
01:10:15,883 --> 01:10:18,251
I wish you a big success.
1232
01:10:18,285 --> 01:10:20,454
Huh. Success.
1233
01:10:20,487 --> 01:10:24,926
Had the Phantom of the Opera
stayed with his lover, Christine,
1234
01:10:24,959 --> 01:10:27,461
now that's what
I'd call a success.

Oh, Jake,
1286
01:14:26,834 --> 01:14:30,004
you really put yourself through
a hard time, didn't you?
1287
01:15:01,635 --> 01:15:02,903
What happened yesterday?
1288
01:15:02,937 --> 01:15:04,672
You just disappeared.
1289
01:15:04,705 --> 01:15:06,007
I think he knew I was there,
1290
01:15:06,040 --> 01:15:08,809
and all of a sudden,
I lost trace of both of you.
1291
01:15:08,843 --> 01:15:11,012
He dragged me into the sewers.
1292
01:15:11,045 --> 01:15:14,115
He seemed to know his way
in that labyrinth.
1293
01:15:14,148 --> 01:15:15,950
Remember, the Phantom
of the Opera
1294
01:15:15,983 --> 01:15:19,253
was also called
the trap-door master.
1295
01:15:19,286 --> 01:15:22,089
I think that's his role-model.
1296
01:15:22,123 --> 01:15:25,559
He has probably been avoiding
people for a long time.
1297
01:15:25,593 --> 01:15:27,795
I bet he is not here legally,
whoever he is.
1298
01:15:28,963 --> 01:15:30,731
Did you recognize him?
1299
01:15:30,765 --> 01:15:33,701
Could have been Jake or anybody.
1300
01:15:36,037 --> 01:15:39,140
I took this photo yesterday
when he was not looking.
1301
01:15:39,173 --> 01:15:42,977
It shows. I can't tell if this is
Jake Lion from that lousy photograph.
1302
01:15:44,111 --> 01:15:46,180
My last meeting with him
is today,
1303
01:15:46,213 --> 01:15:50,217
and really, I don't have much things
to bring back to Rolling Stone.
1304
01:15:50,251 --> 01:15:51,952
It's a long story.
1305
01:15:51,986 --> 01:15:55,723
Yes, it's not easy to get to
know someone in two days, is it?
1306
01:15:55,756 --> 01:15:57,691
No, it isn't.
1307
01:15:57,725 --> 01:15:59,326
But, as a journalist,
1308
01:15:59,360 --> 01:16:02,730
I can usually find out what
makes people tick very quickly.
1309
01:16:03,697 --> 01:16:05,699
One interview is enough.
1310
01:16:05,733 --> 01:16:10,204
So, what is this Erik Lion guy
actually like?
1311
01:16:10,237 --> 01:16:13,941
I don't know. In fact,
I know very little about him.
1312
01:16:13,974 --> 01:16:17,945
I only know what he tells me
Jake was like.
1313
01:16:19,246 --> 01:16:21,916
He thinks he is the Phantom
of the Opera.
1314
01:16:21,949 --> 01:16:25,086
Do you know what the real name
of the Phantom was?
1315
01:16:25,119 --> 01:16:26,921
- No.
- Erik.
1316
01:16:55,082 --> 01:16:58,352
So, you must be the journalist.
1317
01:16:58,986 --> 01:17:00,187
I suppose so.
1318
01:17:00,221 --> 01:17:02,823
- Who are you?
- Erik isn't coming.
1319
01:17:03,424 --> 01:17:05,359
He's not well today.
1320
01:17:05,392 --> 01:17:08,095
Sometimes he drinks so much
that he can't even stand up.
1321
01:17:09,296 --> 01:17:12,366
Unfortunately, today
is one of those days.
1322
01:17:12,399 --> 01:17:15,102
So, he asked me to come instead.
1323
01:17:16,203 --> 01:17:17,771
My name is Christine.
1324
01:17:18,339 --> 01:17:19,974
- Christine?
- Yes.
1325
01:17:20,808 --> 01:17:21,809
Is something wrong?
1326
01:17:22,309 --> 01:17:23,310
No.
1327
01:17:24,378 --> 01:17:25,946
Yes.
1328
01:17:25,980 --> 01:17:28,716
Actually, he mentioned yesterday
that name.
1329
01:17:29,383 --> 01:17:31,418
But I need to speak with Erik.
1330
01:17:31,852 --> 01:17:33,387
It was our deal.
1331
01:17:33,420 --> 01:17:35,089
I need to know more about Jake.
1332
01:17:41,362 --> 01:17:43,764
Well, nobody is perfect,
1333
01:17:44,231 --> 01:17:46,066
darling.
1334
01:17:46,100 --> 01:17:49,336
Anyway, Erik and I
always speak in English.
1335
01:17:49,370 --> 01:17:50,738
Okay, whatever.
1336
01:17:52,973 --> 01:17:54,808
I think I can be of help.
1337
01:17:56,043 --> 01:17:58,779
Because I was there
for that terrible...
1338
01:17:59,548 --> 01:18:01,982
- awful night.
- The night when he...
1339
01:18:02,016 --> 01:18:05,286
When Jake Lion
jumped into the river.
1340
01:18:08,389 --> 01:18:10,357
So, what happened exactly,
that night?
1341
01:18:11,492 --> 01:18:13,060
Nothing happened.
1342
01:18:13,093 --> 01:18:15,329
One minute Jake was laughing,
1343
01:18:15,362 --> 01:18:17,798
and then I turn around,
and he was gone.
1344
01:18:18,365 --> 01:18:20,234
Like he had flown away.
1345
01:18:21,068 --> 01:18:22,369
How did you meet Jake?
1346
01:18:24,338 --> 01:18:26,807
I was his friend in Paris.
1347
01:18:26,840 --> 01:18:28,108
His companion.
1348
01:18:28,142 --> 01:18:30,277
- You mean, his lover?
- Hmm.
1349
01:18:31,178 --> 01:18:33,347
You get right to the point,
don't you?
1350
01:18:34,114 --> 01:18:36,050
Yes.
1351
01:18:36,083 --> 01:18:40,187
But, at first, I fell in love
with his voice.
1352
01:18:40,754 --> 01:18:43,424
A voice that make ends meet,
1353
01:18:43,457 --> 01:18:44,825
if you know what I mean.
1354
01:18:45,459 --> 01:18:48,195
So delicate and strong
1355
01:18:48,229 --> 01:18:49,463
at the same time.
1356
01:18:50,030 --> 01:18:53,968
Irresistibly triumphant.
1357
01:18:54,001 --> 01:18:55,736
You were kind of a groupie.
1358
01:18:57,539 --> 01:18:59,907
Say that name again,
1359
01:18:59,940 --> 01:19:02,209
and I'm history.
1360
01:19:02,243 --> 01:19:03,844
I'm sorry. I'm very sorry.
1361
01:19:03,877 --> 01:19:05,813
But tell me,
what happened that night?
1362
01:19:07,549 --> 01:19:11,051
At first, it was amusing.
We thought it was a joke.
1363
01:19:12,152 --> 01:19:13,220
♪ From the peninsula
1364
01:19:14,288 --> 01:19:16,323

♪ From the peninsula... ♪
1366
01:19:21,895 --> 01:19:22,997
Just before that night,
1367
01:19:23,030 --> 01:19:25,299
Jake disappeared
for a few days.
1368
01:19:25,332 --> 01:19:27,569
But it wasn't the first time.
1369
01:19:27,602 --> 01:19:30,237
And he would always return
to my bed
1370
01:19:30,271 --> 01:19:31,972
without saying
where he had been.
1371
01:19:33,307 --> 01:19:34,609
That night,
1372
01:19:34,643 --> 01:19:37,978
half a dozen or so friends
had gotten together
1373
01:19:38,012 --> 01:19:41,081
and went for a stroll
around the river.
1374
01:19:41,115 --> 01:19:45,520
When I asked Jake
what he had been up to,
1375
01:19:45,553 --> 01:19:48,989
he said he'd been thinking about whether
he should take his own life or not.
1376
01:19:49,923 --> 01:19:51,458
But we all laughed
1377
01:19:51,492 --> 01:19:54,194
when he said
such a crazy thing.
1378
01:19:54,228 --> 01:19:57,998
I asked him
what he had decided to do.
1379
01:19:58,032 --> 01:19:59,534
♪ Meet you half way

1381
01:20:06,473 --> 01:20:07,808
I think
1382
01:20:07,841 --> 01:20:11,579
he had already chosen the spot
he wanted to jump into the river.
1383
01:20:13,013 --> 01:20:14,214
Why do you think that?
1384
01:20:15,583 --> 01:20:19,420
Because, that is where
the currents are the strongest.
1385
01:20:20,555 --> 01:20:21,955
Weird guy, huh?
1386
01:20:23,123 --> 01:20:26,126
What did you all do
after he jumped?
1387
01:20:26,160 --> 01:20:28,962
What did we do? Well...
1388
01:20:28,996 --> 01:20:31,566
We stopped in a cafe
and then we all went home.
1389
01:20:32,266 --> 01:20:33,934
Stopped in a cafe?
1390
01:20:33,967 --> 01:20:35,002
Home?
1391
01:20:35,035 --> 01:20:36,638
But didn't you do anything?
1392
01:20:36,671 --> 01:20:38,673
Like call the police
or something?
1393
01:20:38,707 --> 01:20:40,374
No, not really.
1394
01:20:40,407 --> 01:20:42,009
I just went home
1395
01:20:42,042 --> 01:20:44,478
and waited for him
to show up again,
1396
01:20:44,512 --> 01:20:46,013
like usual.
1397
01:20:46,046 --> 01:20:47,649
Soaking wet, drunk,
and laughing.
1398
01:20:49,551 --> 01:20:51,452
But Jake never came back.
1399
01:20:53,954 --> 01:20:56,390
So, how did you end up
with Erik?
1400
01:20:58,192 --> 01:20:59,527
Well,
1401
01:20:59,561 --> 01:21:01,696
I have to admit
that at first,
1402
01:21:01,730 --> 01:21:04,932
Erik was a sort of substitute,
1403
01:21:04,965 --> 01:21:07,401
a replacement for Jake.
1404
01:21:08,235 --> 01:21:09,236
But,
1405
01:21:09,937 --> 01:21:11,573
as time went by,
1406
01:21:11,606 --> 01:21:14,341
you know, things happen.
1407
01:21:14,375 --> 01:21:17,911
I suppose coping with Erik
is not easy with his legs
1408
01:21:17,945 --> 01:21:19,514
and his temperament.
1409
01:21:19,547 --> 01:21:21,248
He is a handful.
1410
01:21:21,281 --> 01:21:25,352
Well, there's days
where I adore him,
1411
01:21:25,386 --> 01:21:27,354
and some when I don't.
1412
01:21:29,456 --> 01:21:31,925
Nobody is forcing me to stay,
1413
01:21:31,959 --> 01:21:33,093
but I do.
1414
01:21:34,027 --> 01:21:35,162
It's my choice.
1415
01:21:36,997 --> 01:21:39,299
Are they really similar?
1416
01:21:39,967 --> 01:21:41,135
Erik and Jake?
1417
01:21:41,770 --> 01:21:42,936
Well,
1418
01:21:43,470 --> 01:21:44,471
I'd say
1419
01:21:45,305 --> 01:21:48,442
they are both broken poet.
1420
01:21:50,177 --> 01:21:51,378
Quite moody.
1421
01:21:53,480 --> 01:21:56,049
For different reasons,
I suppose.
1422
01:21:56,785 --> 01:21:59,453
But they are both pitiful.
1423
01:22:02,524 --> 01:22:03,525
Well,
1424
01:22:04,559 --> 01:22:07,394
it's all I can tell you.
1425
01:22:07,428 --> 01:22:11,365
By the way, Erik told me to ask
you for the money you promised him.
1426
01:22:11,398 --> 01:22:12,399
Yes.
1427
01:22:19,072 --> 01:22:22,644
And tell him I didn't deduct
the cost of the tuxedo.
1428
01:22:22,677 --> 01:22:24,144
It's a gift from me.

1438
01:22:54,475 --> 01:22:57,344
So, how's it going
with your phantom man?
1439
01:22:57,377 --> 01:22:59,213
He didn't show up.
1440
01:22:59,246 --> 01:23:03,050
Instead, a Frenchwoman, who claimed
she used to know Jake Lion turned up.
1441
01:23:05,419 --> 01:23:07,354
It's getting stranger
all the time.
1442
01:23:07,387 --> 01:23:09,490
I don't know what's real
or not.
1443
01:23:09,524 --> 01:23:11,559
You seem quite real to me.
1444
01:23:13,093 --> 01:23:15,462
Don't count on it, Joe.
1445
01:23:15,496 --> 01:23:17,464
You know
I'm going home tomorrow.
1446
01:23:18,499 --> 01:23:19,767
Where do you go?
1447
01:23:20,869 --> 01:23:22,504
Well, now,
1448
01:23:22,537 --> 01:23:24,739
I promise not to disappear
if you don't want me to,
1449
01:23:24,772 --> 01:23:28,610
or throw myself into the
Seine or haunt the Opera.
1450
01:23:28,643 --> 01:23:29,777
At least not tonight.
1451
01:23:36,483 --> 01:23:40,354
Didn't any alarms go off
when you were with Mr. Lion,
1452
01:23:40,387 --> 01:23:42,289
supposedly taking care of him?
1453
01:23:42,322 --> 01:23:44,057
- What are you getting at?
- You must have seen
1454
01:23:44,091 --> 01:23:46,828
some signs, like,
he was depressed,
1455
01:23:46,861 --> 01:23:48,028
or...
1456
01:23:49,864 --> 01:23:51,498
There was something.
1457
01:23:51,533 --> 01:23:54,434
I probably should have
taken it more seriously,
1458
01:23:54,468 --> 01:23:56,436
but at the time,
it seemed like a joke.
1459
01:23:56,470 --> 01:23:58,573
What are you
talking about, Joe?
1460
01:23:58,606 --> 01:24:01,074
There was a meeting
at the record label.
1461
01:24:01,108 --> 01:24:03,611
Everybody was there.
The head of the label at the time,
1462
01:24:03,645 --> 01:24:05,312
lots of important people.
1463
01:24:05,345 --> 01:24:08,081
And Jake was there?
1464
01:24:08,115 --> 01:24:10,183
Yeah, of course.
The meeting was about Jake.
1465
01:24:10,217 --> 01:24:12,452
What he was going to do.
His band, The Words, had broken up,
1466
01:24:12,486 --> 01:24:14,221
and now he was in Paris.
1467
01:24:14,254 --> 01:24:16,758
It was really about the future
of his career.
1468
01:24:16,791 --> 01:24:19,493
Someone made a stupid joke.
1469
01:24:20,528 --> 01:24:22,195
What kind of joke?
1470
01:24:22,229 --> 01:24:24,164
Something about...
1471
01:24:24,197 --> 01:24:27,735
Jim Morrison's death
being a great career move.
1472
01:24:28,670 --> 01:24:30,437
That's kind of funny in a way.
1473
01:24:31,573 --> 01:24:33,775
Well, everyone laughed but Jake.
1474
01:24:35,442 --> 01:24:37,344
It was kind of awkward, really.
1475
01:24:38,580 --> 01:24:40,147
He left, went to the toilet,
1476
01:24:40,180 --> 01:24:43,383
never came back.
Left us there waiting for him.
1477
01:24:44,552 --> 01:24:48,221
I lost him for a few days
till that night on the bridge.
1478
01:24:48,255 --> 01:24:51,626
And you think that might have
put the idea in his head.
1479
01:24:51,659 --> 01:24:53,561
I don't want
to think about that.
1480
01:24:55,730 --> 01:24:57,865
You know, in Paris, Meg,
1481
01:24:57,899 --> 01:25:00,334
it's a tradition to have
a glass of champagne
1482
01:25:00,367 --> 01:25:02,302
before you make love.
1483
01:25:02,336 --> 01:25:06,139
And, do you know, Joe,
in New York, we fuck first.
1484
01:25:06,173 --> 01:25:07,709

Hi, Meg.
1519
01:27:19,607 --> 01:27:21,274
Finished with Paris?
1520
01:27:21,308 --> 01:27:22,944
Fuck you. I'm here, you see.
1521
01:27:24,746 --> 01:27:26,914
So, that's all I've got, Kathy.
1522
01:27:26,948 --> 01:27:30,317
This guy, he says
he is Jake's crippled brother.
1523
01:27:30,350 --> 01:27:33,320
Also, you don't look
very convinced.
1524
01:27:33,353 --> 01:27:37,357
Oh, well, it might be
wishful thinking on my part,
1525
01:27:37,390 --> 01:27:39,560
but there has to be
more to the story than this.
1526
01:27:40,695 --> 01:27:41,863
I don't know.
1527
01:27:41,896 --> 01:27:44,532
I doubt we will be able
to find out much more.
1528
01:27:44,565 --> 01:27:47,668
This guy, Erik,
he is very strange.
1529
01:27:47,702 --> 01:27:49,637
Well, don't give up too easily.
1530
01:27:49,670 --> 01:27:51,973
You told me to find out
more about Erik,
1531
01:27:52,006 --> 01:27:54,075
so I tracked down Susan Philips.
1532
01:27:54,675 --> 01:27:55,810
Who is she?
1533
01:27:55,843 --> 01:27:57,712
Well,
1534
01:27:57,745 --> 01:28:01,516
apparently, Susan used to give music
lessons to Jake and his brother
1535
01:28:01,549 --> 01:28:04,384
when they were kids
on Long Island.
1536
01:28:04,417 --> 01:28:07,021
You have an appointment with her at
11:00, tomorrow morning.
1537
01:28:07,922 --> 01:28:09,090
You are kidding me.
1538
01:28:09,123 --> 01:28:10,224
Long Island?
1539
01:28:10,258 --> 01:28:13,761
You think this old music teacher
can contribute anything?
1540
01:28:15,462 --> 01:28:17,131
Why, you never know.
1541
01:28:17,165 --> 01:28:20,501
I mean, it may
make some kind of
1542
01:28:20,535 --> 01:28:23,004
baby boomer-generation story.
1543
01:28:23,938 --> 01:28:25,106
Those always work.
1544
01:28:26,541 --> 01:28:28,009
And anyway,
1545
01:28:28,042 --> 01:28:31,411
you may find out whether there
really are two brothers or not.
1546
01:28:32,713 --> 01:28:34,414
Is this like an order?
1547
01:28:34,447 --> 01:28:35,750
Mm-hmm.
1548
01:28:35,783 --> 01:28:37,450

1549
01:28:37,484 --> 01:28:39,020
Yeah.

Please, come in.

These boys you're looking at

are Jake Lion
and his brother, Erik.
1594
01:32:19,040 --> 01:32:21,375
About the age they were when
they used to come to my house

Thanks. That's really kind

What exactly did you teach them?

Like all kids at the time,
1600
01:32:41,629 --> 01:32:43,964
beginner guitar
and a little singing.
1601
01:32:43,998 --> 01:32:46,867
Jake didn't like to sing
at that age. Too shy.
1602

That's amazing.
1603
01:32:48,669 --> 01:32:50,171
They look very much alike.
1604
01:32:51,305 --> 01:32:52,940
Physically, yes.
1605
01:32:52,973 --> 01:32:56,210
Blonde hair, pale skin,
skinny kids.
1606
01:32:56,243 --> 01:32:58,212
But very different characters.
1607
01:32:58,879 --> 01:33:01,282
Jake was shy and introverted,
1608
01:33:01,315 --> 01:33:03,918
whereas Erik was manipulative,
1609
01:33:03,951 --> 01:33:05,152
calculating.
1610
01:33:05,186 --> 01:33:07,088
He was behind all the mischief.
1611
01:33:08,289 --> 01:33:10,124
Were they both good musicians?
1612
01:33:10,157 --> 01:33:14,395
Yes. For their age and each
in his own way, of course.
1613
01:33:14,428 --> 01:33:18,265
Jake was more sensitive,
probably more imaginative.
1614
01:33:18,299 --> 01:33:19,700
Erik sang well.
1615
01:33:19,733 --> 01:33:22,036
And taken together,
they were quite a pair.
1616
01:33:23,170 --> 01:33:24,405
And,
1617
01:33:24,438 --> 01:33:26,140
did they get along
with each other?
1618
01:33:26,173 --> 01:33:28,142
Ah, adored each other.
1619
01:33:28,175 --> 01:33:32,746
Erik, being the older brother,
looked after his brother.
1620
01:33:32,780 --> 01:33:34,215
They went everywhere together.
1621
01:33:34,248 --> 01:33:37,685
They lived just nearby,
right down the block.
1622
01:33:37,718 --> 01:33:40,721
Father wasn't at home much,
him being in the military.
1623
01:33:41,856 --> 01:33:44,425
Got divorced, and the mother...
1624
01:33:44,458 --> 01:33:47,261
Well, I think,
married a car salesman.
1625
01:33:47,294 --> 01:33:49,263
Took them to Arizona.
1626
01:33:49,296 --> 01:33:51,932
I never would have heard
of him again, if...
1627
01:33:51,966 --> 01:33:56,737
not for Jake becoming so famous
despite his illness.
1628
01:33:56,770 --> 01:34:00,141
I taught dozens of kids
in my day, but those two...
1629
01:34:00,174 --> 01:34:02,810
But... Excuse me. What disease?
1630
01:34:02,843 --> 01:34:06,013
Doctor said he had
a degenerative disease
1631
01:34:06,046 --> 01:34:08,115
since he was very young.
1632
01:34:08,149 --> 01:34:10,117
Some kind of sclerosis,
1633
01:34:10,151 --> 01:34:12,286
that, over time,
affects mobility,
1634
01:34:12,319 --> 01:34:14,221
particularly in the legs.
1635
01:34:14,255 --> 01:34:17,124
Another reason why
Erik protected him so much.
1636
01:34:17,158 --> 01:34:20,261
Excuse me,
but I think you're mistaken.
1637
01:34:20,294 --> 01:34:22,796
It's Erik who actually
has that disease.
1638
01:34:23,397 --> 01:34:24,999
No, no. It was Jake.
1639
01:34:25,032 --> 01:34:26,167
Are you sure?
1640
01:34:26,200 --> 01:34:27,902
Of course I am.
1641
01:34:27,935 --> 01:34:29,036
Jake used to come in limping
1642
01:34:29,069 --> 01:34:31,972
when he came for his music
lessons, even as a child.
1643
01:34:32,740 --> 01:34:33,774
I see.
1644
01:34:33,807 --> 01:34:35,510
And what about Erik?
1645
01:34:35,544 --> 01:34:37,244
Erik... Rumor had it
1646
01:34:37,278 --> 01:34:40,214
that he followed the father
to Vietnam and never came back.
1647
01:34:40,247 --> 01:34:42,383
MIA.
1648
01:34:42,416 --> 01:34:45,920
Nobody ever heard from him again
and they never found him.
1649
01:34:45,953 --> 01:34:48,789
Now I hear people go there
on vacation, is that true?
1650
01:34:48,822 --> 01:34:49,924
I suppose.
1651
01:34:49,957 --> 01:34:52,259

Where is her royal highness?

Did you bring
the rest of my cash?
1664
01:35:21,288 --> 01:35:22,356
Well,
1665
01:35:22,389 --> 01:35:23,991
what happens next
1666
01:35:24,024 --> 01:35:26,193
depends on what you tell me now.
1667
01:35:26,227 --> 01:35:28,462
What are you saying?
Did you find Jake or not?
1668
01:35:29,230 --> 01:35:30,497
I maybe found Jake,
1669
01:35:30,532 --> 01:35:33,300
but the Jake I found
told me he was not Jake.
1670
01:35:33,334 --> 01:35:34,868
Who did he say he was?
1671
01:35:34,902 --> 01:35:36,937
He said he was Erik Lion,
1672
01:35:36,971 --> 01:35:38,339
Jake's brother.
1673
01:35:38,372 --> 01:35:39,473
Erik?
1674
01:35:39,507 --> 01:35:40,575
No fucking way.
1675
01:35:40,609 --> 01:35:42,876
That guy joined the army
and disappeared.
1676
01:35:42,910 --> 01:35:44,078
Maybe he didn't.
1677
01:35:44,111 --> 01:35:47,281
And he went back to Paris
to identify his brother's body.
1678
01:35:47,314 --> 01:35:49,283
And he just stayed there.
1679
01:35:49,316 --> 01:35:52,186
At least, that is what
he claims.
1680
01:35:53,320 --> 01:35:55,422
That's impossible.
1681
01:35:55,456 --> 01:35:58,459
Erik made a stopover in Paris
on his way to Vietnam.
1682
01:35:58,492 --> 01:36:00,227
That's when he identified
his brother's body.
1683
01:36:00,961 --> 01:36:02,129
After that,
1684
01:36:02,162 --> 01:36:03,330
I don't know what happened.
1685
01:36:03,364 --> 01:36:04,798
Even the army couldn't find him.
1686
01:36:04,832 --> 01:36:06,800
Well, the guy I met,
1687
01:36:06,834 --> 01:36:09,436
Jake or Erik or whoever,
1688
01:36:09,470 --> 01:36:11,038
drinks like a fish,
1689
01:36:11,071 --> 01:36:14,241
gives concerts for the pigeons
and walks with a cane.
1690
01:36:14,875 --> 01:36:15,909
See what I mean?
1691
01:36:15,943 --> 01:36:17,978
I told you
it was Jake fucking Lion!
1692
01:36:18,012 --> 01:36:19,880
Why do you say that?
1693
01:36:19,913 --> 01:36:22,617
Because it was Jake
who had that damn disease.
1694
01:36:22,651 --> 01:36:24,985
There was nothing wrong with Erik.
Shit, the army took him.
1695
01:36:25,019 --> 01:36:28,022
But, what about the body
Erik identified?
1696
01:36:29,156 --> 01:36:30,858
Who knows?
1697
01:36:30,891 --> 01:36:33,427
Probably some tramp
they fished out of the river.
1698
01:36:33,460 --> 01:36:35,963
But the guy with the limp
you found in the metro,
1699
01:36:35,996 --> 01:36:37,431
that had to be Jake.
1700
01:36:37,464 --> 01:36:40,367
Then, what that woman,
his music teacher,
1701
01:36:40,401 --> 01:36:42,870
told me must be true.
1702
01:36:42,903 --> 01:36:45,339
So, Jake is pretending
to be his brother.
1703
01:36:45,372 --> 01:36:47,875
Crazy like a fox.
1704
01:36:47,908 --> 01:36:49,209
This is a mind-blower.
1705
01:36:50,311 --> 01:36:51,945
You want something
to drink, honey?
1706
01:36:51,979 --> 01:36:53,113
It's on me today.
What would you like?
1707
01:36:53,682 --> 01:36:54,982
Rum and Coke.
1708
01:36:56,050 --> 01:36:58,319
Rick, rum and Coke
for the lady.
1709
01:37:00,020 --> 01:37:02,256
- And a...
- Diet Coke for you, Plynth?
1710
01:37:04,158 --> 01:37:05,159
No booze?
1711
01:37:05,993 --> 01:37:06,994
I'll tell you.
1712
01:37:07,928 --> 01:37:09,229
The famous drink liquor,
1713
01:37:10,331 --> 01:37:11,865
the idols drink water,
1714
01:37:12,433 --> 01:37:13,901
and the legends,
1715
01:37:13,934 --> 01:37:16,370
they don't drink nothing at all.
1716
01:37:16,403 --> 01:37:19,940
Well, I couldn't,
and I didn't want to believe
1717
01:37:19,973 --> 01:37:22,577
that this old pitiful guy I met
1718
01:37:22,610 --> 01:37:26,180
was actually
the mythical Jake Lion.
1719
01:37:26,213 --> 01:37:29,416
And when that Christine
backed up his story...
1720
01:37:29,450 --> 01:37:30,585
Ah!
1721
01:37:30,618 --> 01:37:33,287
So you met the famous Christine.
1722
01:37:33,320 --> 01:37:35,389
Parisian groupie par excellence.
1723
01:37:35,422 --> 01:37:38,192
Do you know
something about her, too?
1724
01:37:38,225 --> 01:37:42,196
Well, from the first time
The Words played in Paris,
1725
01:37:42,229 --> 01:37:44,298
she stuck to Jake
and kept buzzing around him
1726
01:37:44,331 --> 01:37:45,999
even when he'd tell her
to bug off.
1727
01:37:47,736 --> 01:37:50,605
I bet she helped to put this
whole disappearing act together.
1728
01:37:50,638 --> 01:37:52,339
She's a crafty one.
1729
01:37:52,373 --> 01:37:55,376
So, there might be
a story here after all.
1730
01:37:55,409 --> 01:37:57,010
How bad were his legs?
1731
01:37:57,044 --> 01:37:59,346
Bad. He won't be walking
for long.
1732
01:38:03,417 --> 01:38:04,952
You know, sweetheart,
1733
01:38:06,120 --> 01:38:08,523
I don't think this story
is such a great idea anymore.
1734
01:38:08,989 --> 01:38:10,491
What do you mean?
1735
01:38:10,525 --> 01:38:12,493
Don't you want
the rest of your money?
1736
01:38:12,527 --> 01:38:15,195
No story, no cash.
1737
01:38:15,229 --> 01:38:17,231
That's what Kathy Madison says.
1738
01:38:19,066 --> 01:38:21,101
Sure, I could use the money,
1739
01:38:21,135 --> 01:38:22,436
but I could also live
without it.
1740
01:38:24,739 --> 01:38:26,641
Shit.
1741
01:38:26,674 --> 01:38:29,544
Maybe we should let Jake Lion
stay a dead legend,
1742
01:38:29,577 --> 01:38:31,646
better than a living liar
and a cripple.
1743
01:38:32,479 --> 01:38:35,215
People wouldn't forgive him
for that.
1744
01:38:35,249 --> 01:38:37,585
And, you and I would end up
not forgiving ourselves either.
1745
01:38:38,485 --> 01:38:40,655
Just think about it.
1746
01:38:40,688 --> 01:38:42,757
How are you going to feel
when a shitload of paparazzi
1747
01:38:42,791 --> 01:38:44,759
descends on that metro stop,
1748
01:38:44,793 --> 01:38:47,394
and Jake is trying to get away
on his cane.
1749
01:38:47,428 --> 01:38:49,363
I want no fucking part of that.
1750
01:38:50,097 --> 01:38:51,533
I can't believe you.
1751
01:38:51,566 --> 01:38:53,333
You're not as tough
as you look.
1752
01:38:55,169 --> 01:38:58,673

Did you talk to Plynth?
1776
01:40:12,112 --> 01:40:13,480
Yes.
1777
01:40:13,515 --> 01:40:16,216
Back at the fabulous Class Bar.
1778
01:40:16,250 --> 01:40:18,285
I'm thinking
of becoming a regular.
1779
01:40:19,888 --> 01:40:23,056
So, was it Jake
or was it not Jake?
1780
01:40:23,090 --> 01:40:24,726
What difference does it make?
1781
01:40:24,759 --> 01:40:27,595
I think you always knew
the truth, anyway.
1782
01:40:27,629 --> 01:40:29,564
The truth was up to you to find.
1783
01:40:30,632 --> 01:40:32,499
Just tell me,
do we have an article?
1784
01:40:33,367 --> 01:40:35,269
Finally, I don't think so.
1785
01:40:37,104 --> 01:40:38,105
Are you sure?
1786
01:40:39,139 --> 01:40:40,842
Could make a great story.
1787
01:40:40,875 --> 01:40:42,175

to make it.

01:40:52,654 --> 01:40:57,257
Why don't you go to Paris
and see him by yourself?

For the same reason that
you're not writing the story.
1793
01:41:00,828 --> 01:41:04,231

I might be going back to Paris
1794
01:41:04,264 --> 01:41:06,366
to spend some time.
1795
01:41:06,400 --> 01:41:08,670
I thought it was full
of bad memories for you.
1796
01:41:09,469 --> 01:41:11,739
Not so much anymore.
1797
01:41:11,773 --> 01:41:13,508
Well, what are you
going to do there?
