GET MOVING ! FOR GOD'S SAKE,
GET OUT OF THERE !
I--
[ Line Disconnects ]
HELLO ?
[ Siren Approaching ]
[ Siren Continues ]
[ Siren Continues ]
[ Siren Blaring ]
[ Siren Winding Down ]
[ Captain ]
MONTAG, HERE.
WELL... WHAT SOR WERE THESE THEN, MONTAG ?
I DIDN'T REALLY LOOK, SIR.
NOVELS, BIOGRAPHIES,
ADVENTURE STORIES.
OH, ROUTINE, EH ?
IT'S SHEER PERVERSITY.
BY THE WAY...
[ Fireman ]
PASS IT OVER.
WHAT DOES MONTAG DO
NOT VERY MUCH, SIR.
MOW THE LAWN.
AND WHAT IF THE LAW
FORBIDS THAT ?
JUST WATCH IT GROW, SIR.
UH-HUH.
GOOD.
HEARING SOME EXCITING NEWS
IN A DAY OR TWO.
BENEDICT WON'T BE WITH US
VERY MUCH LONGER,
AND MONTAG'S NAME
HAS BEEN MENTIONED.
PROMOTION, SIR ?
[ Engine Starting ]
I TRUST THAT THE THOUGH MAKES MONTAG HAPPY.
I THINK WE'RE NEIGHBORS.
I LIVE NEAR BLOCK 813.
YES, I DO.
THE SAME TRIP TOGETHER
DO WE ?
HMM.
THAT'S WHY
I THOUGHT TO MYSELF,
WELL, WE OUGH TO TALK TO EACH OTHER.
DO YOU MIND ?
ME TALKING, I MEAN.
NO, NO, GO AHEAD.
TALK.
I CAN'T PROMISE
TO THINK OF ANYTHING
TO ANSWER THOUGH.
[ Laughs ]
ONCE I GET STARTED,
NOTHING CAN STOP ME.
A VERITABLE WELL OF WORDS.
HAS THIS UNCLE OF YOURS
EVER WARNED YOU NEVER
TO SPEAK TO STRANGERS ?
NO.
HE DID SAY ONCE IF ANYONE
ASKED HOW OLD I WAS...
TO SAY I WAS 20 YEARS OLD
"LIGHT IN THE HEAD" ?
MMM.
LOOPY. CRAZY.
ANYWAY,
YOU DON'T FRIGHTEN ME.
WHY SHOULD I ?
NO REASON REALLY.
THE UNIFORM, I SUPPOSE.
[ Monorail Hisses ]
MOST PEOPLE ARE...
FRIGHTENED,
FRIGHTENED OF FIREMEN.
MINE TOO.
ARE YOU AN OFFICER ?
OH, NO. NOT YET.
PROMOTED SOON.
I COULD TELL WHAT YOU DO
FOR A JOB.
BECAUSE OF THE SMELL
OF KEROSENE ?
HUH.
QUITE A SCENT,
ISN'T IT ?
MY WIFE DOESN' LIKE IT VERY MUCH.
SHE SAYS IT LINGERS.
I DON'T MIND.
PERFUME ?
YES, A PERFUME,
LIKE ANY OTHER.
I DON'T THINK
I'VE SEEN YOUR WIFE.
WHAT'S SHE LIKE ?
SHE'S RATHER LIKE YOU,
RATHER LIKE ME ?
QUITE LIKE YOU.
[ Laughs ]
TELL ME, THAT NUMBER
YOU ALL WEAR, WHAT'S IT MEAN ?
OH, FAHRENHEIT 451.
WHY 451 RATHER THAN
813 OR 121 ?
FAHRENHEIT 451
IS THE TEMPERATURE
AT WHICH...
BOOK PAPER CATCHES FIRE
SOMETHING ELSE, ONLY
I DON'T REALLY DARE.
GO AHEAD.
IS IT TRUE...
THAT A LONG TIME AGO...
FIREMEN USED TO PUT OUT FIRES
AND NOT BURN BOOKS ?
[ Laughs ]
REALLY, YOUR UNCLE
IS RIGHT. YOU ARE
LIGHT IN THE HEAD.
"PUT FIRES OUT" ?
I DON'T KNOW. SOMEONE.
BUT IS IT TRUE ?
WHAT A STRANGE IDEA.
HOUSES HAVE ALWAYS
BEEN FIREPROOF.
OURS ISN'T.
WELL, THEN,
ONE OF THESE DAYS.
IT HAS TO BE DESTROYED,
AND YOU WILL HAVE TO MOVE...
TO A HOUSE:
THAT IS FIREPROOF.
TOO BAD.
TELL ME,
WHY DO YOU BURN BOOKS ?
WHAT ?
WELL, IT'S A JOB
LIKE ANY OTHER.
GOOD WORK WITH LOTS
OF VARIETY.
MONDAY, WE BURN MILLER;
TUESDAY, TOLSTOY;
WEDNESDAY, WALT WHITMAN;
FRIDAY, FAULKNER;
AND SATURDAY AND SUNDAY,
SCHOPENHAUER AND SATRE.
AND THEN BURN THE ASHES."
THAT'S OUR
OFFICIAL MOTTO.
YOU DON'T LIKE BOOKS THEN ?
DO YOU LIKE THE RAIN ?
YES, I ADORE IT.
BOOKS ARE JUS SO MUCH... RUBBISH.
THEY HAVE NO INTEREST.
THEN WHY DO SOME PEOPLE
STILL READ THEM ALTHOUGH
IT'S SO DANGEROUS ?
PRECISELY BECAUSE
IT IS FORBIDDEN.
WHY IS IT FORBIDDEN ?
BECAUSE IT MAKES
PEOPLE UNHAPPY.
DO YOU REALLY:
BELIEVE THAT ?
OH, YES. BOOKS
DISTURB PEOPLE.
THEY MAKE THEM:
ANTISOCIAL.
[ Sighs ]
DO YOU THINK:
I'M ANTISOCIAL ?
WHY DO YOU ASK ?
WELL...
I'M A TEACHER.
WELL, NOT QUITE.
THIS AFTERNOON:
AND I DON'T THINK
I SAID THE RIGHT THINGS.
ABOUT MY ANSWERS.
THAT'S PROBABLY WHY
HAVE I BEEN ANNOYING YOU ?
OH, NO,
NOT AT ALL.
[ Plane Approaching ]
IN FACT, I WAS QUESTIONED
I DIDN'T DO
TOO WELL EITHER.
[ Plane Passing Overhead ]
THIS IS WHERE I LIVE.
YOU SEE ?
THIS IS MY HOUSE.
ONE MORE QUESTION.
ANOTHER ONE ?
JUST A TINY ONE.
WHAT IS IT ?
DO YOU EVER READ
THE BOOKS YOU BURN ?
WHY SHOULD I ? FIRST,
I'M NOT INTERESTED.
SECOND, I'VE BETTER
THINGS TO DO. THIRD,
IT IS FORBIDDEN.
OF COURSE.
YOU HAPPY ?
WHAT ?
OF COURSE I'M HAPPY.
[ Woman ]
...SO YOU CAN PROTEC YOURSELF ON THE STREETS.
THE ART OF SELF-DEFENSE,
AND OF ATTACK ON OCCASIONS,
MAY ALSO COME IN HANDY
IN THE HOME, COUSINS.
IF YOU WATCH CAREFULLY,
YOU WILL SEE...
HOW A WOMAN CAN USE
A MAN'S SUPERIOR WEIGH TO HER OWN ADVANTAGE.
[ Person Falls ]
[ Woman ]
NOW LET'S WATCH THA ONCE AGAIN NORMALLY.
AND NOW:
IN SLOW MOTION.
WATCH IT CAREFULLY
AGAIN, COUSINS.
I'M GOING TO BE PROMOTED.
AS HE STARTS TO ADVANCE,
NOTICE HER POSITION:
ARE YOU LISTENING, LINDA ?
KNEES BENT SLIGHTLY
AND TOES TURNED:
SLIGHTLY INWARDS.
[ Linda ]
OH, THAT'S MARVELOUS,
MONTAG.
[ TV Announcer ]
[ Linda Shouts ]
[ TV Continues ]
I'M TALKING
ABOUT MY PROMOTION.
[ TV Continues ]
DOES THAT MEAN:
AN INCREASE, DEAR ?
HOW MUCH ?
[ Montag ]
HE DIDN'T MENTION THAT.
WE COULD MOVE:
TO A LARGER HOUSE.
WOULD YOU LIKE THAT ?
I'D RATHER HAVE
A SECOND WALL-SET PUT IN.
YOUR SECOND WALL-SCREEN,
IT'S LIKE HAVING
YOUR FAMILY GROW AROUND YOU.
[ TV Continues ]
LINDA, HOW MANY OF THESE PILLS
[ Linda ]
WHAT'S THAT ?
[ TV Continues ]
[ Linda ]
OH, THOSE. HELP YOURSELF.
I'VE GOT ANOTHER BOTTLE.
OH, DON'T CARRY ON
LIKE THAT. ONLY A FEW.
ANYWAY,
TONIGHT'S SPECIAL FOR ME.
[ TV Continues ]
[ Linda ]
I'VE GOT A PART INTHE FAMILY.
[ Continues, Indistinct ]
OUR CAMPAIGN AGAINST THE ENEMIES
OF THE PUBLIC PEACE...
IS GAINING MOMENTUM.
[ Linda Continues,
Indistinct ]
