Fog on the Lake was like ...

a sharp razor blade.

She ... Apersonada was all ...

401

00:
36:55,800 -- 00:37:00,650

A story on behalf of a

gay basketball player of the 60s.

402

00:
37:00,900 -- 00:37:02,900

I like short-shorts.

403

00:
37:03,050 -- 00:37:06,550

Are informative, but very

comfortable. Conveniently bounce.

404

00:
37:08,400 -- 00:37:11,250

There was fog on the lake. No.

405

00:

Assistant Sheriff Durmi ... Speaking.

410

00:
39:18,650 -- 00:39:23,200

Arbus, our writer made me

make a number of orders

411

00:
39:23,550 -- 00:39:25,750

but not back in their Motel.

412

00:
39:26,550 -- 00:39:30,250

If you see him, tell him

wait another 30 minutes

413

00:
39:30,400 -- 00:39:32,550

and that's all, I have to go.

414

00:
39:32,700 -- 00:39:34,900

Well, Sheriff.

415

00:
39:35,150 -- 00:39:37,200

i Why not closed the door, Arbus / i

416

00:
39:37,350 -- 00:39:39,863

I left it open for you, PJ.

417

00:
39:40,900 -- 00:39:42,950

What happened to your diet?

418

00:
39:42,951 -- 00:39:45,000

- I wondered when

llegaras with my burger.

419

00:
39:45,150 -- 00:39:49,300

Want to play cards?

- Sure, but if you paid me?

420

00:
39:53,000 -- 00:39:55,800

PJ, you pull the cord.

- Well.

421

00:
40:01,300 -- 00:40:04,450

Never go without notice.

422

00:
40:04,600 -- 00:40:07,750

My heart will not endure.

- Sorry, but I played.

423

00:
40:08,800 -- 00:40:12,400

Well, the Sheriff's

waiting for you at your Motel.

424

425

00:

Ok, thanks.

426

00:
40:18,550 -- 00:40:20,750

You owe me $ 18 Arbus.

427

00:
40:40,950 -- 00:40:45,450

Insnuz. Propopoz. Slipol.

428

00:
40:46,850 -- 00:40:48,850

Naytol. This was not in the list

429

00:
40:49,000 -- 00:40:51,850

but I really like and has to be good.

430

00:
40:52,000 -- 00:40:54,200

Slipinol.

- What I need.

431

00:
40:57,650 -- 00:41:00,800

I thought we would work

together, it said.

432

00:
41:00,950 -- 00:41:03,350

This will put you to sleep.

433

00:
41:04,000 -- 00:41:06,200

The opportunity to dream.

434

00:
41:07,300 -- 00:41:09,850

But you did not read the signs.

- Yes, I did.

435

00:
41:15,900 -- 00:41:19,600

So you write? I thought

City writers,

436

00:
41:19,750 -- 00:41:21,850

got tired and came

in some kind of trance.

437

00:
41:21,851 -- 00:41:23,950

We do, we do, but ...

438

00:
41:24,100 -- 00:41:28,100

There is a great final and I know there

the type to guide me to it.

439

00:
41:35,400 -- 00:41:37,725

Do not know a doctor in the town,

440

00:
41:37,726 -- 00:41:40,050

recipe for something that serious?

441

00:
41:40,200 -- 00:41:42,400

I can not do that, I am

a public official.

442

00:
41:45,800 -- 00:41:49,250

i "The Phantom of the cord."

By Bobby LaGrange. / I

443

00:
41:52,100 -- 00:41:55,350

Her skin was as fresh cream,

floating in butter.

444

00:
41:55,500 -- 00:41:59,650

A negligee in a loop,

who liked to annoy me.

445

00:
42:27,350 -- 00:42:29,550

What brings you back here?

446

00:
42:31,400 -- 00:42:33,600

I try to sell a mystery.

447

00:
42:34,700 -- 00:42:36,900

I was waiting for my friend.

448

00:
42:38,050 -- 00:42:40,300

Here in his grave.

449

00:
42:50,050 -- 00:42:52,250

After you

- Thank you.

450

00:
42:57,550 -- 00:43:01,600

You are Edgar Allan Poe

so please ...

451

00:
43:03,550 -- 00:43:05,750

How I can help?

452

00:
43:07,050 -- 00:43:09,250

Well, I have no end.

453

00:
43:09,400 -- 00:43:12,500

Did you know that Dickens was charting with me

454

00:
43:12,650 -- 00:43:15,500

regarding the art, to write the end

455

00:
43:15,650 -- 00:43:18,800

first and working backwards.

456

00:
43:26,300 -- 00:43:28,350

What are your requirements?

457

00:
43:28,500 -- 00:43:33,350

40-50 lines per page, 200 pages.

458

00:
43:34,000 -- 00:43:36,600

What are the requirements?

- The beauty.

459

00:
43:36,800 -- 00:43:39,550

Does the tone?

- The melancholy.

460

00:
43:39,700 -- 00:43:41,900

These points have been established.

461

00:
43:42,500 -- 00:43:44,900

We consider the chorus.

462

00:
43:45,600 -- 00:43:50,250

Si. Yes, the bell comes to mind.

463

00:
43:50,600 -- 00:43:54,650

Repetition should be brief.

In my own work, the most famous,

464

00:
43:54,800 -- 00:43:58,418

used words such as

one repetition.

465

00:
43:58,600 -- 00:44:00,650

Never again.

466

00:
44:00,800 -- 00:44:03,600

The difficulties stem from

the assumption that the words

467

00:
44:03,750 -- 00:44:05,900

monotamente be spoken by a human.

468

00:
44:06,050 -- 00:44:10,850

Then I had the idea of a

unreasonable creature, able to speak

469

00:
44:11,000 -- 00:44:14,250

quite naturally, as a

parrot was my suggestion.

470

00:
44:15,300 -- 00:44:17,950

But it was soon

replaced by a raven

471

00:
44:18,350 -- 00:44:21,650

as capable of

speak, but as a bird left,

472

00:
44:22,100 -- 00:44:25,150

infinitely agreed more with the tone intended.

473

00:
44:26,600 -- 00:44:30,151

Despite the depression, do you deserve

a drink of that bottle of whiskey?

474

00:
44:30,550 -- 00:44:33,400

Yes, of course. Please continue.

475

00:
44:34,950 -- 00:44:37,150

So .. I wondered,

476

00:
44:38,300 -- 00:44:40,550

Poe ... which of the melancholy tones

477

00:
44:41,200 -- 00:44:44,952

according to the understanding

human, is the most tragic?

478

00:
44:46,450 -- 00:44:48,650

Death.

479

00:
44:49,000 -- 00:44:53,050

And when, is this the most tragic of

among all the melancholy tones,

480

00:
44:53,200 -- 00:44:55,200

more poetic?

481

00:
44:55,350 -- 00:44:59,900

When mostly ...

He refers to himself ... A beauty.

482

00:
45:01,150 -- 00:45:04,250

The death of a beautiful girl ...

483

00:
45:04,800 -- 00:45:09,300

Unquestionably is, the

most poetical topic in the world.

484

00:
45:13,300 -- 00:45:16,850

And undoubtedly, the most

able to develop this theme

485

00:
45:17,000 -- 00:45:20,700

belongs to the man who loved her.

486

00:
45:30,700 -- 00:45:33,450

So combine ... These two ideas:

487

00:
45:33,850 -- 00:45:36,350

A lover complaining

loss of his beloved,

488

00:
45:36,600 -- 00:45:39,350

and a raven, who constantly

repeats the words "never again"

489

00:
45:39,500 -- 00:45:42,250
