Vicky Cristina Barcelona Page #9

...that you will never

realize your full potential?

Leave me alone.

Leave me alone, please!

As had happened before

by mutual consent...

Maria Elena packed her things...

...and moved out of

Juan Antonio's house.

I think he's sweet.

He just, he owns...

He gets in very close.

He's a close talker.

He's a close talker.

That's probably

why he's so successful.

I was telling her in the car

ride over here that I'm very...

I think he'll be a great

contact for me.

I'm going to check out the food.

Does anyone want anything?

He gets in your face.

He'll get a little close, but not...

Hello.

Oh. Hello.

I'm surprised to see you.

As am I to see you.

I didn't think you liked parties.

Gabriella insisted

I come and she's an old friend.

You know that Cristina and

I are no longer together, right?

Yes.

So now you're

just with your ex-wife?

No, Maria Elena is gone as well.

For now.

It's funny. Maria Elena and I...

...are meant for each other and

not meant for each other.

It's a contradiction.

In order to understand it,

you need a poet, like my father.

Because I don't.

How about you?

All goes well with your husband?

Oh, yes, he's wonderful.

He's terrific.

I'm quite delighted with

the way things turned out.

Why don't I believe you?

Don't become flirtatious.

I realize your bed is empty now...

...and you always had

a little yen for me...

...but we're preparing to leave

by the weekend, so...

Meet me for lunch.

I'm too scared.

What?

You're breaking up, Tom.

You're breaking up.

Where are you?

Okay. That's better.

That's better.

Just try to stand still.

Can you hear me?

We have to get

a bird for Mark and Judy.

No. We can't get them a bird.

- Why not?

- It's ridiculous.

They're beautiful.

I always wanted a bird.

You know, when we get home...

I'd love to get a bird

for the new house.

Yeah?

Yeah. And I'm leaning towards

Bedford Hills.

What do you think?

Yeah, yeah.

Hold on.

Hello.

Spend tomorrow afternoon with me.

No. It's not possible.

We're preparing to

leave by the weekend.

Be on the corner of

Calle Tiles in Pedralbes.

And... L'll drive by and pick

you up at noon.

No. I... You're wasting your time.

I can't talk now.

Look... I'm not the kind of man.

who would try to come between

a husband and wife. I'm not...

But Judy Nash called me

and tells me you are not happy.

That you are actually more in love

with me than the man you married.

I can't talk.

Hey, babe. What do you think?

Who was that?

On the phone.

Oh, it was my, uh, language teacher.

He wants me to have.

...a good-bye lunch with

him tomorrow at noon.

That's perfect.

I'm going to play golf with

Mark in the morning.

Well, this is...

I've been working

on these ones lately.

They're very overwhelming. Oh, my God.

It's very hard to explain a painting.

You don't have to. It's fascinating.

This one, actually,

should be the other way around.

No, I like it very much.

Can I...

can I be frank about something?

Yeah.

This one. It's...

There's something

very frightening about it.

That one is Maria Elena's.

Well, that explains it.

It's very chaotic.

Erratic, almost. But...

Oh, God, what am I doing here?

I don't know what I expect to happen.

It's been a long time since

we made love that night in Oviedo.

I've thought about it many, many times.

I'm sure you weren't thinking about it.

when you were making love to

Cristina or Maria Elena.

Well, I never lied to you.

I told you from the first moment.

...that I was attracted to

both you and Cristina.

I, I can't just go to bed with you.

I'm... L'm not good at this.

- But you weren't nervous that night.

- I wasn't married.

You were about to be.

Yeah, you're right.

It's what I want.

But what am I supposed to do?

Make love with you and then go.

...on with my marriage

like nothing happened?

Or, just terminate it?

Judy Nash says you are heading

for an unhappy life.

Yeah, well, she's talking

about herself.

Maybe you will understand.

...more about your own feelings

once we've made love.

Yeah, or less.

Look, I'm not saying

I'm not tempted...

...but it would require

such an upheaval, emotionally...

...and from a practical point of view,

you're not exactly the kind of man.

...to plan a future with.

What are you doing?

You're goin to kill yourself!

I don't want to live.

I don't want to live, damn it!

Let it go. Now, now, now.

Don't you understand that

I don't want to live...

...that I can't live like this.

My head is going to explode.

I can't take this anymore.

I can't take it anymore.

Give me the gun.

Give me the gun. Damn it!

Listen to me, please, my love.

My love, listen to me.

Come. Give me your hand.

Come. It's okay.

It's okay, my love. It's okay.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God, I'm so sorry!

Oh, my God, you're both crazy!

Both of you are completely insane!

How the hell am I going to

explain this to my husband?

I can't live like this!

This is not my life!

I just can't do it!

I still don't understand

why your language teacher had a gun.

I told you.

He collects antique firearms.

- He was showing me his favorite one

- God! We should sue him!

- And it went off.

- That is so irresponsible!

No, it's not that bad, honestly.

What if something happened to you?

What? What are you saying?

I love you so much.

Doug never found out the real story.

Judy knew the secret and,

of course, was relieved.

...that Vicky had not been hurt worse,

or killed.

With Vicky leaving to

go back to New York...

Judy's plans to rescue Vicky...

...from her own fate were

put on terminal hold.

When Cristina returned from Antibes,

Vicky told her the whole tale...

...and Cristina thought it was sad.

...how much Vicky

had wanted Juan Antonio...

...and was unable to say or

do anything about it.

I would have stepped aside.

Look, I knew you had feelings.

...for Juan Antonio

the moment you saw him.

But if I knew what had happened,

I never would have gone ahead with it.

Look, it was a...

...a passing thing.

Now it's over.

Vicky went home to have her

grand wedding to Doug...

...to the house they both

finally settled on...

...and to lead the life

she had envisioned.

...for herself before the

summer in Barcelona.

Cristina continued searching...

...certain only of

what she didn't want.
