Love Ranch Page #7

Synopsis: In the mid-70s, near Reno, Grace Bontempo runs the Love Ranch, a legal brothel. Her husband Charlie, with big dreams, a felony record, and an aptitude for spending and infidelity, is the brothel's public face. On the day Grace's doctor tells her she has cancer in an advanced state, Charlie takes on new client, Argentine boxer Armando Bruza, Charlie's ticket to fame: he hopes to promote a fight with Ali. Because of Charlie's felonies, Grace is Bruza's titular manager. With the IRS and the church ladies circling the business, Grace takes the manager's role seriously and, along the way, Bruza charms her. Secrets play out: is there love at the Love Ranch? How will Charlie respond?

I need my car now.

Damn.

How can you help?

Tell Charlie Bruza is here.

Where is Grace?

I did not think would have the

aparecerte ball.

I thought this was between you and me, Charlie.

I did not think you needed help.

Hey, you wanted to talk.

I gave you everything and stole my wife.

Never steal your wife, you never

I stole it, you lost your wife.

Really?

Grace Yes, I'm here.

Bruza ", think I'll let you win?

Please, what's on your mind

think I'll let you win?

You can not take my wife.

Why come back here?

You're a damned liar.

Bruza, come on, come on.

What are you doing here?

Come on.

Grace, I love you, come here.

Charlie, we talked about this.

There is nothing more to say, okay?

You're sick, I can not believe that.

I can not believe it.

Do you think I lied about that?

Walk, let's go.

Goodbye, Charlie.

We have been married 26 years,

Can you talk for a minute?

Charlie, we're going now, ok?

We go, is...

One minute, one minute.

Dime.

Grace.

Let me take care,

I did not know you're dying.

It's too late, Charlie.

Grace.

No, no...

Come on.

Charlie, too late, I do not

None of this, I do not want the ranch.

I do not want your dreams

I do not want this life.

We're going the other way,

I do not care.

But let me take care of you.

Listen, I have very

short time. - I know.

OK? I spend with him.

No. Oh, no.

Please Grace.

Shut the f*** up.

Charlie, sh*t, what did you do?

Oh, my God, Bruza, no.

Warren, take it in,

I'll take care of this.

You can not do.

Grace, it's all good now

call an ambulance.

What the hell is happening?

Have to go.

Oh, my god.

Had to shoot in self defense.

Liar, liar.

Grace, I saw everything.

Liar, liar.

He killed.

What is happening here?

Liar is a liar.

Water, a little water.

I'm sorry, Bruza.

They called it self defense.

Justifiable homicide,

Bruza said he was armed.

I told the police what happened,

I testified before the grand jury.

But it was Charlie's voice to mine,

covering with Warren and Johnny,

and yes, fighting is over.

Bruza's body was taken to

Argentina in a military plane.

His funeral was so big

such as Carlos Gardel.

He would have loved that.

Yes, I left all the damn Rancho

that party sh*t

the others were cowards.

But the true local, I sold...

And should have been

Charlie's face...

When they took their

cars and all I had.

I know that I

fall but it was worth.

Just the fact of seeing him fall.

I spent two years in prison female

just as the damned

idiot fled the country.

He went to Brazil with all their sh*t.

Charlie tried to call me,

but did not answer his calls.

I could never forgive him for what he did.

The only thing he could not predict

was to stay alive in prison

I had radiation treatment.

What did you lose?

Surprise. Referral.

Nobody knows how long

but I take day by day.

When I left, I remember everything

my mother always told me,

if you're good at something goes on that,

so we built our Dream Palace.

The legal brothel

bigger than anybody.

Today people come from around the world

fun in the new 'Love Ranch'.

So even some of my

old girls, they returned.

You know, when you

continue family together.

I make no apology for my life, leading

comfort and joy in the world...

To many lonely people...

what still keeps me...

Is that through all

lives, I know the truth.

We had it, he and I, those moments

love and truth together,

finally and forever.

Hey, how many people can say that?
