The footage
of the cosmic rays...
that was your idea.
It's a good idea.
We talk to him tomorrow.
It is sonic boom
of the Concorde.
It's so f***ing amazing.
We're living in the future, man.
...acting is to the scenario.
in St. Germain.
Would you excuse me one second?
I've got some big news.
Can't you see I'm talking
Give me two minutes.
Excuse me,
you were saying?
It's called
theater of revolution.
It's going to be a movement,
a voice, a poetry workshop.
I'm sure you'd love this place.
- Did you hear about poor Felix?
- I hope he's OK.
He's so talented.
Working with him
is so much fun.
I remember once,
when we finished early...
and he took us all
to the go-kart ride.
Oh, God! Come here.
- That nobody can deny...
- Hey, babe!
For he's a jolly good fellow
For he's a jolly good fellow
It's Felix DeMarco!
That nobody can deny
That nobody can deny
Thank you. Thank you.
So kind.
Ladies and gentlemen...
I'd like
to make an announcement.
I'm sure
you've probably heard...
about the mad events
of this evening...
but we're OK, right?
But there's one more thing
that happened.
and she said yes!
And so, we can't wait
one moment further...
and we're
setting sail tomorrow.
Don't stand around
staring at us!
Let's dance!
Dad. Dad.
Hey, you all right?
Yeah. I misplaced my glasses
on the plane.
Thank you very much.
Let me hold your hand.
Hold on. Wait.
I took a sleeping pill,
and I ate all the ice cream.
It's good to see you.
Good to see you at Christmas,
even briefly.
Wait a second.
I brought you something.
Thanks, Dad.
I had a dream the other night...
and I thought of you.
Well, you were in it.
I was watching these...
hideous films of Vietnam
on the television.
And I had
this deep, desultory dream...
where I met a son
that I didn't know I had.
And he looked like you.
You were there, too.
Two brothers.
But then I realized that
he was a soldier in the war.
And when I woke up,
I had these...
these feelings
of worry and of loss.
And I wondered...
this is curious...
could I have had a child
by another woman...
Isn't that a curious thought?
I think about it
sometimes and...
What if I met a boy
and he looked like you?
Maybe it's really my son.
Sometimes I'll be driving
down the street...
and I'll see someone
who looks familiar...
like it could be my brother.
You know?
So, maybe it's true, Dad.
It is possible, Paul.
I wasn't always faithful
to your mother.
When I was your age...
was women.
It was like a disease
or a curse.
I think I know
what you mean, Dad.
Kids are nice.
When do you think
you'll have some of your own?
I don't know, Dad.
Have you thought about
coming back home?
to ask you.
I don't know.
Excuse me.
We found your glasses.
Oh, thank you.
Thank you very much.
Wow.
I think it's time to go.
I'm very glad for you, Paul.
I know you'll do well
in this new job of yours.
What is it?
It's a science-fiction film...
about a futuristic spy
named Dragonfly.
That's interesting.
Your grandmother
used to call dragonflies...
the Devil's darning needles.
She told me that
they come in the night...
and stitch up your mouth
if you use profanity...
or were otherwise voluble.
This isn't exactly about that.
Maybe you can use it somehow.
Thanks, Dad.
You never know when
some little overheard story...
or image can find a place
in your work.
Here.
- OK, see you.
- See you.
How was it seeing your father?
It was nice.
He told me about
this strange dream that he had.
I'm going out to get some milk.
Action!
Give me some screaming, girls.
Louder!
Now give me some moaning.
Louder!
You did good work
on the trailer.
Thank you, sir.
Fabrizio says you know
the space picture...
better than anyone else...
and thinks you should take over.
He usually knows
what he's talking about.
So, you make some shorts,
films, things like that?
- I'm working on a film.
- Come here.
Now, there are
two kinds of movies.
Those with an ending,
and those without an ending.
This movie needs an ending.
I've made some fifty pictures...
and this is my advice...
the ending is the most important
part of the movie.
The part that people remember
when they leave the theater...
but everybody works on it last
when they are exhausted.
So, listen to me...
and figure out
how to end this picture...
with an exciting twist.
And that we can do it
in two days.
Yes, that we can shoot
in two days!
I'll be in Rome
for the holidays...
and Fabrizio
will get you out there...
and you can show me
what you're thinking.
Francheschino!
And you... astonish me.
I'll have a cocktail.
Your cocktail is ready,
Dragonfly.
Attention, all comrades.
We will soon be ready
to descend
We need to be free...
to make love all day.
Every day.
Must be free.
So... we finally meet.
I like what I see.
I've been expecting you.
Hope you're not disappointed.
I knew it was only
a matter of time...
before they sent in
Agent Codename:
Dragonfly.You've got quite a reputation.
Really? Tell me about it.
Work with the revolution,
Dragonfly. Join us.
I have a mission...
which I intend to accomplish.
There she is!
Fabulous.
Preparing boosters.
Stand by.
There she is!
There's
too many loose ends here.
This gun...
What is so special
about this gun?
We got a Christmas gift.
Have a look.
It's a present from the guys
in the screening room.
What a temper.
Andrezej was so mad that day.
The mysterious, dark figure.
Who should that be?
Paul, relax.
It's just a movie.
I can't find reel seven here.
What is this?
Oh, Madonna.
Paul, reel seven.
It will take me days
to put it back together.
A message.
It's written in the code
from the movie.
Yeah. Film 37.
Checking code book.
All right. D-e...
"Defilers beware.
"Defilers beware,
exclamation point?"
Who sent this?
Andrezej.
Oh, God, Andrezej.
It has to be him.
He has a key to the door.
This is bad news.
Damn. I knew it. He's crazy!
And you know what?
I'm sure he cut the brakes
on Felix's car.
Jesus. You know...
I'm calling the locksmith.
You know what?
Damn. He's crazy. I knew it!
He cut the film
in a million pieces.
I want to see your soul
in action.
I love you.
Take your time. Not so fast.
- I love you.
- Like that, yes.
Say "I'm in love with you."
I'm in love with you.
- One more time.
- Shut up.
Transmission breach.
Need assistance.
Need assistance.
Ship's been damaged.
Hey, you got my message.
Come in.
It must be freezing out.
I've tried everything
to fix this...
but I can't figure out
how it goes back together.
Let me take a look.
You look cold.
I'm all right now.
We'll be out of here in no time.
What are you doing on the moon?
