Hemingway & Gellhorn Page #4

---

Starts throwing some punches for what you believe.

Damn war correspondent.

I... What?

As bombs fall, know what

people thought of the street?

I have to go home.

For some reason you do not think will be killed

Gellhorn!

We gotta go.

Oh, you and your damn legs

two meters.

Is this what you want?

This is what I need.

How did you do this?

I fell off a ladder.

I fell over a skylight.

Really?

And leg?

Itlia,

Modena, shrapnel

If the Italians had not been for me had been ripped

leg.

It must have been bad.

For sweater knee remains united.

I have a boat beside the bed,

with shrapnel that took,

two hundred twenty-seven pieces.

I rewarded with the Cross of Merit

war with three appointments.

We have a hero here.

I hate the word hero.

Sacred.

Glorioso.

Sacrifice.

Never saw a damn thing that was sacred.

Damn I slept foot

What?

Bullfighters do,

One day a great matador ended Nero,

one who taught me this trick.

I think it ended with Nero

You think?

The important thing for a writer

is telling a good story.

So is it true about the scars?

Of course, it is true.

But

'll tell you something more about the writers,

the best are all liars.

It is hard to say exactly

the moment one falls in love with a person

.

But with him I knew exactly

the time I encamor.

And I knew why.

At that time were his words

you ever hear,

no matter how intimate they were.

Hemingway!

Hemingway!

Hemingway!

You saw Hemingway?

Did not see...

The hotel was being transformed

in a vast haven for the wounded.

Could smell the slaughter.

Was full of men blindfolded.

Cappa, Hemingway has seen?

I know that voice...

Brooklyn.

Gellhorn.

I've been thinking about you, how are you?

How are you?

I'm fine...

And you, how are you?

'm Luxury now that you're here,

however, the Hungarian...

Where is?

Do me other questions.

I'll get you a drink.

Wait.

I want to give you this.

You'll get lucky.

I'll get you a drink.

Take here...

Look here is Pope...

I'll take care of it.

In the event that fall Madrid...

Madrid will not drop ever.

But we can not be certain.

Why can not shoot this?

I'll tell you openly.

Zarra's brother is a colonel

Franco.

This is a civil war,

brother fight against brother.

But Moscow does not seem to believe that.

Perhaps think Paco is a spy?

I saw him kill a dozen

fascists in an afternoon.

Can you imagine a better way,

for antifascist you create?

Do you think that?

What I think does not matter,

not comfortable Moscow

leader whose brother sits next to Franco.

Anything can happen.

What kind of things?

Something certainly can not stop,

but I promise

will have a fair trial.

Fair trial?

A man known to his friends.

In Spain

Russians can be very good to know.

We control the access to all brigades.

Y. ..

Our Comrade Dos Passos

it difficult to follow Moscow guaranteed this.

Lie.

Maybe two can be a genius as hell

,

but no one is more anti-fascist.

No one questions the ideals of this man

,

'm talking about your behavior

can not deny

Dos Passos is in love with Paco Zarra.

Rumors and suddenly is everywhere

,

talking to people.

The war is full of rumors.

Let me be more direct,

Zarra seems that Paco is a spy

and if found to be co-Dos Passos

,

he might also be involved in espionage.

Then my hands are tied.

What the hell are you suggesting?

I'm suggesting

tell Dos Passos

that men should not be so emotional

.

Tell him to act like a man

on which Hemingway wrote.

Hem, you said something about Paco?

Hem!

Two years later

Koltsov was detained in a purge in Moscow

and sentenced to death.

He really believed in Stalin.

Sometimes I wonder

if what he believed would protect Stalin

did not end with

a bullet in the head.

Hemingway who is bigger and stronger.

Your writing is phony,

pedantic, pompous!

Your voice is pompous.

Stupid fagot.

How dare you tell me how to write stories?

What do you know about the real war?

Funny how a man

need to prove their masculinity.

I wonder why that is?

Hemingway is right.

Your voice is very pasty, is a disaster!

You a overvalued, narcissistic!

F***!

Narrate it myself!

I like the idea of Hemingway,

let's try.

Manga of narcissistic,

Speaking of war.

Hello Orson.

Quit.

But are you talking about? Resignations?

As so quit?

This Spanish soil is hard and dry.

And the faces of the men who work there

are hard and parched by the sun.

This land with water give more.

Fifty years ago we want to irrigate.

This is working.

Joris what the hell is going on?

I found Orson Welles

and said resignation.

Waiver? I send it to the street!

You what?

Can not...

You know nothing

narrate a movie, Hem.

Actors sh*t!

Turn off the projector, stop, stop.

Turn the lights.

With Orson Welles narrating was very theatrical,

But Hemingway hear a natural voice,

A real voice;,

a man who really was in Spain

and wants to tell the world.

Trust me, it's working. I think

Gellhorn, falling bombs.

Everybody ready?

Music.

Projector.

Hemingway, ready?

Y. .. Action!

Before death came

if you were old or sick,

but now comes to this city

from high in the sky shining like silver

,

present

all they have nowhere to run,

or hide.

Three German planes did this.

This water would empty land lot.

Fifty years ago we want to irrigate

but we have prevented,

Now lets bring water,

to grow food for the defenders of Madrid.

This was my speech,

Hem is now?

Wait... Joris

Where is

Paco taking on the horse?

You said it was the best scene of the movie

.

These are Paco...

Wait a second.

What is this?

I took the whole movie?

Disappeared in Spain

and now want to disappear forever?

Two Good heavens, calm down.

The cuts were made to

the movie flow better.

This is how you make a movie of Two.

Are aesthetic decisions.

Wells's voice was not suitable for narration

and now he says that

Paco had to be cut.

Paco was...

Is for balance,

is for the good of the film.

For the sake of the movie

or for the sake of the Russians?

Do not insult me.

I risked my life to film this war.

YES? Paco pelenado risked hers.

Hem for the love of Gd,

do not do that to a friend.

Why is that?

Every time we talk Paco...

What are you hiding?

Something I do not think you have to listen

stomach.

O:

something you have no stomach for that.

Okay, Two.

No one says a coward

can not be a great writer.

You should go write...

Would be nice a new book of Dos Passos.

After Spain Dos Passos changed.

He never regretted

be against Franco,

but because of what happened to Paco

political ideology is much oriented to the right.

Ladies and gentlemen,

tonight

Congress of American writers

which is sponsored by the League of American Writers

,

Proudly presents the first film

the battlefront Spanish

directed by filmmaker Joris Evens,

and written by Ernest Hemingway

in collaboration with John Dos Passos.

Silence! Be still.

Damn it! What do you do?

F***!

Shame on you!

My fault?

I do not remember cornered against the wall
