She just finds them a little esoteric
Sit down.
A Pastis from the area.

The book is very old.

All the women in my family have used it.
In one way or the other way.
Oh God ...

So imaginative.
Not every horror is a creation of the mind.
I LOVE YOU
Shit.
Hi, it's me. please call me back when you get this
It is important.
Hey, George, it's me.
I woke up with a nasty cut on my hand
A broken glass or something.
Maybe , I got in a fight I don’t remember.
I can't reach Mona. She doesn’t return my calls.
He doesn’t sound good.
He got in a fight last night , he cant even remember it.
I'm just going to talk to him,and pick up a few things and i'll be right down
I do not think that's a good idea.
I think we should leave right now , drive to paris get a place
We settle down and disappear.
He will try to find me
you don't want that do you.?
I'll tell him what ever I have to . to make him understand.
Trust me, okay?
My God, where have you been?
Why haven’t you answered your phone or returned my calls ?
I've told you,I was going to my cousins, for a few days.
You didn’t answered the phone. daniel didn’t answer her phone
I left you a dozen messages
I know , I needed some time to myself to think.
and did you? - Yes, I did. It was good.
I needed to do that good im glad
Because I’ve missed you so much missing.
What are you doing?
just getting some things , then we can talk.
Why do you need to get some things? you had time to think ,now your staying home, right?
it's not that easy Axel I've got things to decide
Damn it ...
what did I do that’s so fucking horrible Please just, tell me!
You did not do anything. It is to me. Try to understand it.
I'm trying to understand, But you aren't telling me anything!
stop what the fuck you are doing and look at me!
What?

I'll get it, when I go back.
You're not going anywhere, until you ... tell me what's going on!
Really now what , keep me prisoner why don’t you grow up?
Stop it! Stop it..!!
You ...
Bastard! You are a real pig!
You weren’t at Danielles the last five days so Where were you?
- You're being paranoid. - You were not there, I know.
You checked up on me?
I was worried about you I love you.
You poor fool.
cant you see why I cant stay here
because your killing me how am I killing you
Axle you wont leave me alone for a minute...
if I step out of the apartment , you want to know where I'm going ...
what im doing when ill be back
If I'm late, I have to explain why
If I meet someone, you want to know who it is and what we talked about.
- Don’t I have a right to know, with whom my wife is meeting with, No..!!
You call me 20 times a day just to check up on me.
I just want to say hello
but I'm sick of you showing up , where ever I happened to be ,by coincidence.
you know in the beginning I liked the attention , it was nice
But now it's too much, I cant live this way anymore.
you want somebody who is there for you every minute
somebody who lives their life just for you well im not that person
Nobody is
I know you're right. I'm neurotic.
But only because I love you so much.
Stop saying that...... Do you even know what that means?
It means that I love you.
I'm sorry that this has happened I tried to make it work , I really did
And we had some great times together. But I cant stay.
Please.
- Give me one more chance. - No, I cant.
- Please, I'll do what ever you want , what ever you say. - No.no no
- quiet no more no. - No.
- Axel ... - Please Mona, kiss me back.
- One last time, then you can go. - I'm leaving now.
Please, sweety, fuck me harder, okay?
Come on!
- I don’t want to hurt you.Mona go ahead I wont break.!!!
Come on, fuck me harder!
Please Mona, don’t ruin it for me ..!!.
you do still love me
- I'm still leaving. - Why?
I don’t understand.
We belong together. I can make you happy, if you let me.
No, that's not true.
Please just stay , and give us another chance . I'm begging you.
I cant.
Look If you've met someone ,then just tell me I forgive you.
Otherwise it doesn’t make any sense.
Go into the living room. i'll be in, in a minute.
I'll tell you everything, you want to know . The absolute truth.
I wont sneak out , I promise.
Okay.
That's so mean.
You know where this is going don’t you?
I think so.
Because I'm falling in love with you.
i'm falling for you too
then its settled , just stay in Berlin permanently and.... just move in with me.
We will get married and share our lives together.
We will have a home and a family. All that happy people have together.
I'd like that.
- A friend of yours? - Who?
- The guy you just smiled at. no sweety I haven’t seen him before in my life
So, the absolute truth, right?
The truth ...
I admit , I haven’t been at my cousins the last week
and Yes, I’ve been with someone else
I've been unfaithful to you, and now I want to be with this other person.
So I haven’t been paranoid all this time.
Just because you were right, doesn’t mean you're not paranoid.
- You admit to cheating on me? - Yes.
I cheated, I lied....... i've betrayed you.
- Who's this? - none of your business Nobody, you know.
- Do you love him? - Yes.
Shit.
Why did you tell me sooner before it got to this point
Because I was afraid of, what you would do.
- I would never hurt you Mona, you know that - No, you hurt yourself .
You threaten with suicide.
You swallow fist full of pills and throw the big guilt trip on me
it was just one time Yeah but ,I've learned my lesson.
How long has it been going on?
The first time three years ago.
- The first time? yeah there have been others too
How many?
Hard to say One-night stands included?
So, are you saying that you're a whore and a slut?
Yes.
remember when I had that internal bleeding
- The uterine infection? that’s what I told you it was
come on mona you have too eat something honey please im okay , im not hungry
I just want to sleep, go into the other room.
I stay here when you sleep in case you need something
My lover at the time was married.
And he was not going to leave ,his wife and kids for me
and you and I certainly weren’t not ready for a child. So ...
Was it mine?
it wasn’t anybodies it was in me then out of me
- Just like that? - Just like that.
how can you be so cold about it You love kids.
Yes, other people.
besides I didn’t want to be chained to you for ever
so I did things to hurt myself and everybody around me
remember when I left you and went to my sisters in paris
Yes.
And you came back, because you had me missing.
that’s not why I came back
did you come?
I don’t believe you.
Why do you think, my sister and I have not talked since then?
you are only saying these things to drive me away
But I still love you.
I cheated on you at every opportunity and laughed about it behind your back.
I would come back home and not even wash so you would smell the sex on me and go crazy about it
what did I do for you to hate me so much
I used to think it was your weakness your selfishness
And ... your passive-aggressiveness But it's the little things too.
the way you button your shirt from top to bottom
the way food squishes around..... in your mouth...while you chew
the way you fuck me...
as if im some fragile little china doll
that you put back on the shelf, when you're finished.
you with your soft, mellow orgasm like a whisper.
when what I need is to be ,fucked.... with a scream
Your penis and my vagina never liked each other.
didn’t you ever realize that
In five years, you never once made me come and that never bothered you
Can I ask you something?
- What? - Are you pregnant?
You think I'm leaving you, because I'm having another mans baby ?
- That could be a reason. - Not for me.
You are cruel Mona and you hurt people
I almost feel sorry for this new guy does he know the kind of women he's sleeping with
He will find out soon enough.
So are we settled now ?
We go our separate ways before we hurt each other more than we already have ?
Do you think you can hurt me more than you already have ?
I do not know.
I don’t want to find out
I'm sorry.
where you going to go to his place ?
you can't ask me these questions anymore
will I get to meet this mystery man
I do not know.
I wasn’t going to tell you this but now it doesn’t matter anymore.
I had a biopsy last week and the results were inconclusive
they are not sure if its cancer - Stop it, its not going to work this time.
the big medical emergency
why is George calling on your cell
Hi, George. It's me. what's new? '

WET DREAMS

The remote , the god..... damn remote?
No ..

I have to ask you some thing sensitive Donnie
whens the last time you ......... raped somebody
I rape my mother all the time in dreams of course
I even kill people I've killed people I love
you know , I should start charging you for these sessions.
The point is, dreams can be a release
As a safety valve.
They allow us to solve dilemmas in ways we wouldn’t contemplate in real life
sometimes the're the only truth we have
It is the reality of the soul.
it's real life that’s the distortion
I don’t want an explanation , I just want to know how to make it stop
Have you tried........ opening your eyes ?
I'm serious. The moment you know your in a dream
you can make a conscious effort to stop it
Okay ..
- And how do I do that? , simple just close your eyes and count
you can do that donnie , cant you Three, two, one ...
wake up.
Over here! Hey!
Carla?
Hey, you ..
I found the remote
Maxine! No!
Carla, take her down!
Maxine! Carla , stop that thing! what the fuck you doing
Carla, stop it!
Okay, Carla , you got what you wanted.
Please leave,just let me go.
No, Donny.
What the fuck do you want from me?
The truth.

the women you took a vow to , love , honor ,obey unto, stay with me now ,till death do you part
aahh what the fuck aaahhh , aaaahhh
I'm dreaming....
It is a dream. it's a dream
Three ...
Two ... ...

Wow.!
You look great. You look like a movie star.

What's that smell. ? Smells delicious.

Good morning.
Breakfast time.
hold on a second tiger , I just want to see how you're doing down there.

you my dear were out like a light last night.... after the surgery
I never thought , I would see the day when Donny boy would be conked out before the game
you know I would have DVR'd it for you But you know me ...
you , you , are the expert........ with the remote.
you can't even screw in a light bulb
let alone screw your own wife
But when it comes to a remote
Donny ... is a fucking black belt.
You want to say something? Yes? Really?
if I take this of , do you promise not to spit again..?
your not very good at keeping promises, Donny.
you've been ruled by that one-eyed monster between your legs
I'll bite. what's so funny?
You. You sick fucking bitch
at least ill be with you , tearing your tits of for starters
For starters? Wow. that’s some threat
how do you plan on doing that I mean ...
I am stunned. No offense.
all I got to do is close my eyes and at count of three,
when I wake up, im going to kill you
Do you understand me, Carla?
im going to kill you for real
Ready or not, here I come.
Three ...
Two ... ...
Three, two, one!
Three, two ...
One
Three, two, one!
You were right, that was really a funny joke.
Especially the punch line.
This is my dream, bitch.
You can imprison us ..... stories
Even if they are our own.
Especially if they are our own.
The power is to write your own stories
... Is the power to define your life
To define your life
THE ACCIDENT
Why do we die, Mommy?
I guess its to make room for the new people that are born every day.
there’s only so much room to fit everyone you know
Does that mean my grandmother died ...
... To make room for me?
No ..
that’s not what it means at all
grandma died because her body wasn’t working anymore
and if anything you helped grandma live as long as she did
How?
You were the reason that she could still get up in the morning
just seeing you made her happy
yes I guess grandma was really old
Will I ever grow old?
not for a very long time
But that man was not old.
No, he wasn’t.
then why did he die
Sometimes things just happen.
Maybe he did something bad?
People don’t die for doing bad things.
They are sent to her room, if they were naughty.
Or they are in the oven, like the bad witch in the gingerbread house.
your so lucky we don’t have a oven a big enough to cook you in
- Maybe I'll have Daddy buy one. - No!
Oh my God.
Stay in the car.
We're on the Highway north of ...
No, he is not.
Could be his father.
Okay, they send someone?
Mummy is that man ever going to wake up again
No ..
i'm afraid , he isn’t
what about maybe as a zombie or something?
Not even as a zombie. and if he did , then i'm sure he would come back as a good zombie
why did his daddy do that
it's like little Tommy when Old Yeller got sick
Do you remember that?
Why do we die?
I really do not know.
What I do know is that, as long as were here......
we should do our best to care for each other as much as possible
so when we do die
... We all die happy.
so died happy in other words say...
They lived happily ... ever after
Yes.
its just like that
just like living happily ever after
Well, in order to define your life ...
... You have to live it.
I'm sorry.
It is easier to get caught up in somebody else's story.......
then to live our own
Vision Stains
I love you.
I only chose women who want to die.
And if you think about it, i'm finally giving them a voice
Something they never had in life.
Because of me everything they've gone through wont just disappear.
I preserve their history
I love them.
The most important images that People see during their lifetime.....
their key moments ... of experience
get trapped in a liquid of their eyes as the see them
And I've discovered that these visions can actually be transmitted to someone else
By a simple surgical process
At the moment of their death, will their lives flash before their very eyes
This has become my work. I'm their biographer.
I have to admit, I've always had a horrible handicap
I've never dreamed
But that does not matter anymore. Their dreams finally give me purpose
living here is the hazard of my trade
To understand them, I have to live like them
The fact that I don’t exist is fine with me
The only things that matter, are the books.
I'm just a technicality.
a technicality with a body That's my only weakness.
I'm only interested in womens stories
they are the true creators the ones who suffer
mens predictable stories hold no interest to me....
No blood, no life.
The strongest memories come from women who have lived long lives.
who have had it all then lost it....
either by choice or by decision
those stories hurt the most
because I feel like everything they did.
What do the unborn? see , think or feel
finding that out, might just unlock the keys to life itself
No - don't touch my baby ? Let go of me!
No....
What did you take from my baby ? what did you take.. ?
ah , ah fuck it
My baby ...
Perhaps you should have woke up but it,,!!!
The unborn can see..!!! idiot..!!!
How do you expect to write down the visions of something that doesn’t even have eyes yet
You're going to find out more than any living person should know..!!
And you're going to regret searching.. where you did
ever wondered where that little inner voice in your head comes from..?
The one that tells you ..... what to do?
All those people you wrote about... nothing you me cycle of souls
There is absolutely no originality or uniqueness about people
None what so ever
Just beings that carry out predestined lifes ...
Then die..only to come back and to.... live out another pathetic scenario,
Designed by a very cruel creator , with a very short attention span.
For the sole purpose of entertaining
Do you think your writing peoples original stories
Nothing is original, you're just a plagiarist.
Shut up!
The only way to shut me up ,..is to to close your eyes. for good
Stop messing with things , that no human is supposed to know, when their alive..!!!
That's right....!!!!
There is only one way to truly stop seeing..!!
Do it...!
Do it..!!
Do it..!!!
Do it..!!!! Do it..!!! ,Do it..!!!
Do it..!!!!!
I'm suddenly seeing clearer than I ever have..!
It's beautiful to forget what I have learned
To no longer feel the need to know everything all the time
Sometimes it is better to close your eyes to be guided
I can no longer see , so now I can finally dream
The stories are given life.....!!!!
Even as the real world slip's away..!!!
Until there is nothing left ... as the storyteller.
A storyteller, that you have put your complete trust in
SWEETS
It's not you, it's me.
How can you even say that with a strait face..?
With you.?
Wha..What part of it is you..?
I need some space.
Okay ...
Space... I can give you space..
Look see...
Look.
Do you see? We ...
We have space... can we move on..?
I need some me time....
Why are you being so selfish?
What do you mean , I'm the one being selfish you are the one being selfish
I was doing just fine , before you came into my life.
It's been fun , but you can do much better than me Greg
Maybe I don’t want to do better than you Estelle..!!
Maybe that makes you think you can do better than me..!!
I'm fucked up..!! i'm a mess..!!!
Hey.., everybody has randoms okay..!!
Whats all so special about yours
We talked about this over and over
You know that I'm seeing other people..... right..!!!
I didn't know that..!!
Then why did you asked me for exclusivity?
You did you demanded exclusivity why?
You don’t tell people im you’re girlfriend do you..?
I don’t talk to anybody anymore
I don’t call anyone
I just wanted to spend time with you because they don’t mean anything to me..!!.
You do..!!
I'm not ready for a relationship right now I need to figure myself out..!!
You were begging for this..!!
I was fine taking it slow
You challenged my commitment
And I rose to that challenge and I found something I really really liked
And so did you..!!
Greg.. I love you I'm just not in love with you
What is the difference?
We have a chance okay.. please..!!
We can do better
-Estelle Please, I love you! - And I love you ...
... As a friend.
Friends don’t do this to each other
Sweet, you're breaking my heart.
Do not do this to us! We are a good!
We live again , were so good
We can work at it
babe..!!!
Stop it Greg.
You're making it so much harder than it needs to be..!!
If you were going to do this , why did you introduce me to all you're friends
They seemed to like me.
They said we were good together that we had chemistry
They liked you sure..!!
I just don’t feel the same way anymore
Why?
Do you do this to every guy you encounter
No, with you it was different.
Then I woke up one morning and something had changed.
I can't help how I feel
This has happened before, I'm sorry.
Maybe your not in love long
You make me feel so special.
You're not getting it Greg..!!
You need to get away from me..!!
I don't want to get away from you..Estelle..!! please..!!
Please ...
Please.
I love you. Really, I love you.
For a minute there , I thought you were different.
Please.
But you're just another pathetic, little lamb.
Please, give me one more chance.
Fine.
We'll see each other later..!!
I miss you! I miss you so much!
I know that you do.
Darling, good evening.
- How are you doing oh ghastly
Oh.. never mind
I adore this women, she is one of my..... dearest friends
Mikela Da Vinci, and you are?
We've met before we have..?
A few times actually
Antonia is a friend. A good friend.
Well ...
Go right in..!!
Enjoy..!! enjoy..!!
I have to stop eating. That's my goal.
For a couple of weeks at least to prove to myself that I can do it.
It's all about moderation.
Moderation is something i'm not good at unfortunately
I can't help it..!! I just love masticating
I'm thinking about taking a break anyway
Soon..!! i've done it before it's fine , me too....!!!
Soon..!!
We could do it together.
That would make me a better person - Right.
For both we are better people
What about our friends. they will never understand..!! they'll hate us..!!
Friends come and go.
If they can't appreciate what I need to do, for me, then fuck them.
They can be replaced.
But let's worry about that tomorrow
Yeh,for now fuck it. It tastes too good.
I don't do four legs - One of my dearest friends.
Until I get what I want for me..!! it's going to have to be all about you..!!
It has to be that's what I say
I'm my own person right..!! if anyone doesn't see that , will have to read the book
according to me..!!
It's not like I don’t care about anyone, it's just that no one will ever be as intrusting as me...!!!
To me..!!
It's me or nothing me and only me..!!
Me, me, me ...
Oh..!!!! Fuck..!!!
God!
No, no!
Why?
Please ...
I love you!
I'm sorry. Greg..!!!!
I'm a mess.
At the end ...
However... one of two things always happen
It always happens.
The storyteller moves on or ...
. Your stories.
Are over.......
Before you know it...!!!
