Vicky Cristina Barcelona Page #2

off to make love...

...with whoever invites us.

...to charming little

Spanish towns.

Does she always analyze

every inspiration...

...until each grain

of charm is...

...squeezed out of it?

I guess I have to say that...

...my eyes are green,

actually.

I wouldn't call our reluctance...

...to leap at your sexual.

...offer being over-analytical.

If you would care to join us

for some...

...recognized form

of social interaction.

...like a drink,

we'd be fine...

...but otherwise,

I think you should try.

...offering to some

other table.

What offended you about the offer?

Surely not that I find you.

...both beautiful and desirable.

Offended me?

No.

It's very amusing... Galling...

...to be honest, but...

Is it my imagination

or is it getting a little late?

I would love to go to Oviedo.

What? Are you kidding?

I think it would be so much fun.

I think we should go.

I'd love to go.

Can we discuss

this some other time?

When I saw you across the room.

...at the art gallery...

...I noticed you have...

...beautiful lips.

Very full, very sensual.

Thank you.

Okay, okay, look.

I'm s-, you know, if you wanna go...

I can't guarantee

the lovemaking-

...because I happen to be very moody.

Let's not negotiate

like a contract.

I came over here with

no subterfuge...

...and presented my best offer.

I hope you will discuss

it and give me.

...the pleasure to take you

with me to Oviedo.

I have the good fortune.

...to borrow my friend's plane.

It's just big enough

for the three of us.

...and I'm a very good pilot.

It sounds very safe.

Think it over.

I hope you're joking about going.

Oh, my God,

This guy is so interesting.

Interesting?

Are you kidding?

What's so interesting?

He wants to get us both into bed.

But he'll settle for either.

In this case, you.

Vicky, I'm a big girl, okay?

If I want to sleep with him,

I will.

If not, I won't.

Cristina,

he's a total stranger.

This is impulsive,

even for you...

...and if I heard right...

...he was violent with his wife.

At least he's not one.

...of those factory-made zombies,

you know?

This is a great way

to get to know him.

No, it's not.

I'm not going to Oviedo...

...with this charmingly

candid wife beater.

You find his

aggressiveness attractive...

...but I don't.

And he's certainly

not handsome.

I think he's very handsome.

He has a great look.

I mean, he's really sexy.

Well, you would,

because you're a neurotic.

You have to admire

his no-bullshit approach.

What are you talking about?

It's all bullshit.

I'm not going to Oviedo.

First off,

I never heard of Oviedo.

I don't find him winning.

Third, even if

I wasn't engaged...

...and was free

to have some kind.

...of dalliance

with a Spaniard...

I wouldn't pick this one.

Oh, hi.

I can't talk right now.

I'm trying

to save Cristina.

...from making a potentially

fatal mistake.

What? No, the usual.

I'll call you back.

I love you, too.

If we go back

to the house now...

we can just throw

some things in a bag.

...and we'll meet him there.

I took an instant liking

to this guy.

He's not one of these

cookie-cutter molds.

- He's creative and artistic.

- Cookie-cutter mold?

Is that what you think

of Doug?

Doug?

Who said anything about Doug?

It's ridiculous.

You like the way

it sounds to pick up.

...and fly off in an airplane.

I know. I don't know

why I'm so scared...

...unless I'm scared of myself.

It's a mistake, Cristina.

They predicted a little

storm out of the town...

...out of Oviedo,

but it's nothing serious.

Don't worry, really.

As you can see here...

There, it's just

a little bumpy, right?

- Would you like to fly it?

- No, thank you!

It's easy.

It's even easier than a car.

Try it.

By early morning...

...they had reached

their destination...

...and proceeded to a hotel.

...that Juan Antonio

had selected for them.

Vicky made sure she and Cristina.

...had their own room.

...and Juan Antonio had his.

If he was disappointed,

he hid it well.

After freshening up, he took them.

...to see the sculpture that was

so meaningful to him.

Are you very religious?

No. No, I'm not.

The trick is to enjoy life...

...accepting it

has no meaning whatsoever.

No meaning? You don't even.

...think that authentic

love gives life meaning?

Yes, but love is so transient,

isn't it?

I was in love with the most

incredible woman...

...and in the end...

Yes?

...she put a knife into me.

My God, that's terrible.

Maybe you did something

to deserve it.

Juan Antonio took

his guests for lunch.

They discussed art

and romance.

He was full of stories

about Maria Elena...

...his ex-wife...

...whom he both criticized

and idolized.

He proved to be a good host,

and in the afternoon...

...he took them to see

the local sights...

...where they enjoyed

hearing about the city.

...and took photos.

Later, they bought candy and

cakes at a charming sweet shop...

...which were

homemade and delicious.

They continued

to document their trip.

...and while Vicky

remained skeptical...

...Cristina had

a wonderful time.

The question

of sleeping together.

...did not come up until

that night...

...and Juan Antonio was

a little drunk.

You're welcome.

Well, now that the day

is almost over...

...is it reasonable

of me to ask you.

...if you would both join

me in my room?

Come on.

I thought we settled that.

Vicky's just trying to say

she's engaged to be married, that's all.

Great. Then these are her

last days of freedom.

No. Look, I'm not free.

I'm committed.

You know what my theory is?

When I drink,

I get brutally frank.

I... I think that you're still hurting.

...from the failure of your marriage

to Maria Elena...

...and you're trying to

lose yourself in empty sex.

Empty sex? Do you have such.

...a low opinion of yourself?

She's just saying it has to

have meaning for her, that's all.

I mean, the city is romantic.

The night is warm and balmy.

We are alive.

Isn't that meaning enough?

I just came along to

keep Cristina company.

I'm engaged to be married.

I have a handsome...

...lovely fiance

who I make love with...

...who also holds a.

...very real place in my heart.

And to be perfectly frank,

Juan Antonio...

...if I were the type

of person who played around...

I don't think it's

in the cards for us.

So, I'm tired.

I haven't slept

in twenty-four hours...

...and that is exactly

what I'm going to do.

And you?

I'll go to your room...

...but you have to seduce me.

Hello.

Hello.

I am just here to have

a quick drink...

...to say thank you...

...then I'm going back to my room.

Did you act in the

small film you made?

Did I act?

Yeah, I acted. Why?

I hope you were more convincing.

...than you are pretending

to have come here.

...for one quick drink.

I am here to go

to bed with you.

You're right.

So you're pretty much home free,

unless you...

...blow it.

- Blow it?

Yeah.

Blow it.

You mean ruin the moment?
