Misery Loves Company: The Life & Death of Bruce Gilden Page #8

Don't, Yevgeny. Please.

Is????

It is--it is a source of pain to me

To????

????

To think of the years i--

I spent in the gulag,

Wondering if you were still alive...

Hoping.

Can we not try?

We can try.

Yevgeny...

We can try.

Get it done, sport?

He was already dead.

I wanted to.

I wanted to kill him.

But...

I just couldn't.

Oh, you're a better man than me, sport.

So the great game goes on

With or without us.

Without us, I guess.

Think we made a difference, Harvey,

Any difference at all?

God, I hope so, sport.

No, nowadays people have short memories.

They????

You and me, kid-- we put our warm bodies

On the firing line,

And we turned 'em back.

Something????

Otherwise what was it all about?

It was about the good guys beating the bad guys...

Uh-huh.

But we sure screwed up along the way.

Yeah, but we screwed up a lot less than they did,

Which is why we won?

For an idea that looked good on the drawing board,

And let me tell you something'.

A metaphor is a lot harder to slay than a country,

And we clobbered them in thend.

Yeah.

You got to remember what it was all about.

It was always black and white, kid--

Right versus wrong.

There were good guys, and there were bad guys.

Which side were we again, Harvey?

We???
