She's sick or something. Yeah. I heard that. JIM: That's a shame. CLARA: She seems fine to me. [FOOTSTEPS CLIMBING THE WOODEN STAIRS] Where's Clara? She said she was going for a walk.

There's really no time between Clara and work. Oh, come now. You must have time to rollin the hay now and then. It's really not my priority. [crickets] You know, you look reallygood in spite of everything. I know. Your father says hello. What are you talking about? He said, Ethel, you giveour girl a hello for me. Why are you doing this? Doing what? Acting like you're crazy? I know what you think I did. Think what you like. I could really care less at this point. At least Bascolm stayed by my side. Is he seriously still sleeping with you? He got married a few years after you left. He just likes taking care of me now. So Bascolm got married. Since when do you care? You're the one who abandoned us. [ice cubes clanking] [glass thumping] This was a fucking mistake. BASCOLM: I'm just saying Clara seems kind to me. ETHEL: I just can't believe she's back. BASCOLM: Me, either, to tell you the truth. ETHEL: She'll never forgive me. BASCOLM: Hey, there's nothing to forgive. [smooch] ETHEL: Thank you. Hand me the salt. Well, there you are. I thought you mightstumbled off the mountain. [thunder] [OMINOUS MUSIC, THUNDER RUMBLING] [inaudible] wasn't good. I tried. No. [inaudible] I says-- she saidsomething disaster [inaudible] so I figured I'd just-- I'd just keep [inaudible] figureout what she was going to do. And I would just [inaudible]Oh, well, that's sweet. Thank you. Who are you talking to? Oh, Clark, of course. [LAUGHING HYSTERICALLY] Iknow she does look like me. [laughing] [eerie music] [door creaking] [footsteps] [knocking] FRANKIE: [inaudible] BASCOLM: [inaudible] FRANKIE: [inaudible] BASCOLM: I know [inaudible] I'vebeen good for her, you know. I kept her company. I made her food. FRANKIE: Oh, is that what you do? I'm sorry. Thank you. Really. You know I always liked you, right? BASCOLM: Of course, I did, Franks. You and me, we were great friends. But what kind of friendleaves town without a word? FRANKIE: You never did understand. BASCOLM: Oh, come on, Frankie. That was all gossip. Whatever it is you think Etheldid, you've got it all wrong. FRANKIE: You always were loyal to her. BASCOLM: Oh, come on, girl. You've got to try for her. FRANKIE: Try for her? I tried for her for years. It never made a difference. She never listened. [door closing] I think you should go back downstairs. [door opening] BASCOLM: Oh, I didn'tmean to scare you, kiddo. [door closing] Whew. I'm just catching up with your ma. You know you look just like she did? Actually, you're cuter than she was. [FOOTSTEPS GOING DOWN THE STAIRS] [slow music playing] [NIGHT NATURE SOUNDS, WAILING VIOLIN MUSIC] [bar music playing] BASCOLM: Oh. [footsteps] OK. I think we're ready to go. To the big Kahuna, the earth and the stars. Let's enjoy this food. And god forbid I used too much salt. BASCOLM: I'd like to welcomeFrankie home to the mountains. We have missed you, girlie. And Clara, wow. The most unexpected of pleasuresto make your acquaintance. Deja vu, really. FRANKIE: Why does this dinner table always have to be used as a stage? ETHEL: Can we be civil for at least one moment? Please, like you'd know thefirst thing about being civil. Frankie, don't get hysterical. You're embarrassing yourself. BASCOLM: Ladies, ladies. FRANKIE: Stay out of this, Bascolm. CLARA: Hey. Sorry. I just, um-- I wanted to say thank youfor having me and, um, amen. I just don't understand what'sgotten into that old clock. It was working just fine a few days ago. It's 9:30 if you all must know. I think I want to act. FRANKIE: This is new. Yeah. When I graduate, I thinkthat's what I want to do. That's a wonderful idea. You've got the face for it. You think so? Yeah. I'm going to do it. You used to act, right, Ethel? Uh-huh. I'm surprised your mothertold you anything about me. Well, I hear you were a legend. A legend? I wouldn't go so far as a legend. But I did have a good run. Your mother was a great actress, too. But she quit. Heck, yeah, she was. And she was a good dancer. I was in a few high school musicals, and I was not a good dancer. Don't be modest. She was great. Bascolm, pour Clara some wine. Excuse me. I did not think so. Oh, come on, Mom. Young Frankie. Lord knows what you were doing at her age. Let the child have some wine, for God's sake. Drain your water, kiddo. You know, Clara, since you'retrying so many new things this weekend, maybe you shouldtry singing in front of people. Oh, Clara, you can sing? Why didn't you say so? Sing for us. Fat chance. She never sings for me. Oh, but you must. It's your gift to the world. Come on. Kiddo, let's hear it. Really, don't. She's not going to do it. [SINGING] The gate flies open. You take a fall. I stand there watching you against the wall. Another lover has hurtyou so, and I am the clown in your heartbreak rodeo. A clown paints a smile on her face. Hides so many feelings of disgrace. My friends all tell me everybodyknows that I am the clown in your heartbreak rodeo. That's fantastic, my love. Absolutely fantastic. BASCOLM: She's got some pipes. She can sing. Well, I never really could sing. I even lost a movie because of it. At least you were in a movie. Try movies. I got my big break on Broadway and then went out to Los Angeles, andthe roles just kept on coming. Would I have seen any of them? Mm-mm. I-- I doubt it. You're too young. One director I lived with, what a doll. He called me his mountain muse. FRANKIE: Is he the one whokicked you out of his house? Oh, he never would have done that. That was another man. Well, anyway, they're both dead. So I guess I came out on top. Oh, Clara, the parties, you couldn't believe it. They were to die for. Will tomorrow be like that? Exactly like that. Most people haveforgotten how to have fun. You know? I mean, that's why I started hosting these parties every year. You have to let loose sometimes. Let your freak flag fly. Ethel's parties are the highlight of the year for most people. I know folks that-- that plantheir whole summers around it. It's true. We can't ever comparethe parties in Los Angeles, but, you know, nothing ever can. It was a golden time. So why did you leave? A town never knows a goodthing when they have it. What do you mean? [incoherent mumbling] I mean I was great, and they threw me out withthe garbage the second I stopped fucking them. FRANKIE: Mom. I was tossed out, naked on the street. Well, it's their mistake. Not mine. Yeah, babe. Not mine. You think being an actress is easy? BASCOLM: Ethel, baby. Come on, sweetheart. How about I help you to yourroom, and I roll us a joint, and you drift right to sleep. Don't try to baby me. BASCOLM: Oh. Why aren't you at home with your wife? BASCOLM: OK. Now, you don't mean that. Stop. ETHEL: Frankie, have you done your homework? [interposing voices] Um, thank you, Mom. I've done my homework. Everything's fine. OK. ETHEL: I can't have you failing out of school. BASCOLM: That's it. Let's go. ETHEL: [SLURRING] Oh, whatare they going to think of me? [footsteps] BASCOLM: OK. [door opening] [door closing] FRANKIE: I'm sorry about her, sweetie. I tried to warn you. CLARA: Warn me about what? I think she's amazing. I'm going to go to bed. Finish cleaning up. [footsteps climbing the stairs] [NIGHT SOUNDS, DARK MUSIC PLAYING] [clanking dish, water splashing] Hey there, kiddo. [liquid pouring] [glasses clinking] [coughing] You never had anything this strong before, huh? You know, your great, greatgrandaddy build this house. It's been around for a while, that's for sure. Smells like a Salvation Army or something. BASCOLM: Yeah. Lots of old things, dead things. There's tons of ghosts that roam these hills. It's true. Ethel says she can see her grandparents every once in a while. Shit. I can even hear hertalking to Clark sometimes. [inhaling] That-- that's mygrandfather's name, right? BASCOLM: Wow. She really doesn't tell youmuch of anything, does she? Such a shame. [matches rattling] I think I heard her talking to him. BASCOLM: Yeah. It's gotten worse lately. Did you know him? Not well. My daddy and him both worked asmechanics at car shop in town. He was good with cars. [chair creaking] BASCOLM: It's not a good habit to take up. So-- [glass breaking] BASCOLM: Whoa. You OK? Geez, kiddo. How in the world did that happen? Stop calling me kiddo. [FOOTSTEPS RUNNING UP THE STAIRS] [crickets chirping] [bell chime] [brooding music playing] CLARA: Ethel? Ethel. Is everything OK? You fell asleep with the light on. Oh. Sorry. I love you. Do you know that? I always have. Are you sure you're OK? Yes. I'm going to die soon. [sounds of nature] [clang] [clang] You'll never guess who I ran into on my walk. Elvis Presley. It's Mr. Ferris. I haven't seen him in years, buthe's standing in his driveway dressed as Elvis. So bizarre. How's your head? Why'd you let me sleep that late? [clang] I thought you could use it. Maybe don't drink so much tonight. Grandma didn't care. Pff. Grandma. Why do you hate her so much? You can't bring me here and expect me to just hate her like you do.- I don't. I-- I-- I want you to get to know her. It's just that your grandmais a very special lady. That is so typical. What? That you say one thing, but you mean another. Sweetie, I do not knowwhat you're talking about. She really needed you, you know? And you just left her here all alone. Yeah. OK. You know, it wasn't alwayseasy raising you on my own. I needed her, too. Well, I'm sorry if I was such a burden to you Jesus Christ. Baby, you know that's not what I meant. Stop. What has gotten into you? I am happy here. Why do you have to ruin it? Um. I'm sorry, sweetie. I'm not trying to. I love you. She said she's going to die soon. [footsteps running away] [crying] BASCOLM: Come here. [sobbing] I'm a horrible mother. No, you ain't. [sobbing] Hey. No, you ain't. [quivering] I need to tell you something. [sniffling] [water rushing] [ax thumping, breathing hard] [split wood falling] [dreary music playing] [liquid pouring] Has no one caught onto this yet? It just makes thecheap stuff taste better. I can't believe you're stilltrying to impress these people. These people? These people are my friends. They love me. I think they're just using you at this point. Have you been crying? Are you planning to kill yourself? Don't be ridiculous. Here. Let me help you. It's sad you'll never understand Clara, just like you never understood me. [liquid pouring] [OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING, WATER RUSHING] [monotone music playing] [UPLIFTING MUSIC PLAYING, PARTY CHATTER] [drunk yodeling] Oh, [inaudible] [inaudible] It's a celebration of life. [inaudible] Who's she supposed to be? [party music playing, chatter] Get inside, now. I don't want little people here. This is my party. Bascolm, you better drag thehose down to that bonfire. Those idiots are going to start a forest fire. Grandma, I don't have a costume. We'll find one. Here. Oh, this could be perfect. You could wear mycostume for my 74th film. I was a disco queen. This would look good on you. What do you think? And what would I be? Me, of course. I'm practically dead. Come on. You're so young. You're not going to die. Yes, I am. I don't want to feel like this anymore. I didn't mean to scare you. I don't want you to die. I'm not doing any good living. I'm just getting to know you. I wish she hadn't kept you from me. I kept you from me. [knocking] Ethel? Everyone's here looking for you. I'll be down in a second. OK. I don't understand. You will. I hate her. I promise you won't. Put this on. Come downstairs, dammit. [banjo strumming, party chatter] God save the queen. [uplifting music playing] Oh, thank you for coming, Richard. It's such an honor to have you here.

BASCOLM: Mm-hmm. That good? ETHEL: Mmm. Uh, I don't know. How do you people drink this shit? Mm-mm, mm, mm, mm, good. Um, oh. OK, now, everybody just, um,settle down for a minute. I, um-- I have something Iwant to talk to you about. [SHOUTING] Quiet. God damn it. This is my party. And I think my beloved Frankiewants to know what happened the night her father died. I'm sure all of you would like to know, since all of you been gossiping about it for the last 20 fucking years. First of all, I loved my husband. That's the first thing. He was a drunk, but I fucking loved him. I know there's an old legendaround Clark's death that I-- I led him down there, and Ijust pushed him over the edge. I mean, God knows he deserved it. You know, he did hit me one time, you know? But I don't blame him for that. I just want to clear some things up. Anyway. Oh, the stars were so bright that night. And we each had a bottle of Dickel. And we were sitting on some wetclumps of moss on the cliff. You all know he used to love it down there. And, well, not as much as heloved Dickel, but he loved it. So anyway, he goes, Ethel,I've got something to tell you. You ain't going to like this, but I gots too. And then he went off on some rambling tangent about how I am selfish-- so selfish-- always bringingup my Hollywood days. I mean, it's my path. What else am I supposed to do? Oh, this glamorous sex scene hehated just like most of you do. You live your pathetic little lives, and you listen to me go onand on about fame and fortune. I mean, maybe I'd hate me too. Anyway, it-- it, um, itlet me think about it all-- all the fun I had without him. So I started telling him about this one time when I was sent a limousinewith 100 roses in the backseat, and my back got all scratchedup from this director having his way with me, right? And the floodgates, you know--it was just like the floodgates had opened up, and I couldn't stop talking. And I just kept telling storiesof the captain, and movie stars, and houses and caviar,and the cars, and the sets, and the trip to Asia, and all of it. I mean, I just kept talking, and drinking, and staring up at the stars, I-- just kind of like what I'm doing now. And when-- when I finally stopped, I looked at Clark, and-- and he just jumped. It was like he-- he just let himself get picked up by the breeze and just carried off. I mean, he was there. And then [HYSTERICALLY] he wasn't there. You know the story now. He's just gone. And I cried for about a week. And then I just-- I just moved on like you all will. You'll just move on. You will remember that the life we had together was a beautiful thing,and-- and then it was over. And it-- as much as I pity all of you, you're the best friend awoman could ever ask for. I mean, we're only allowed a few lives. And I-- I-- I've lived a few too many. Oh, my. Ooh. Oh. It's already so late. I-- I-- I hope you understandthat I've got to go. And, um, don't worry. I'll see you all very soon. Oh, I don't need your help, darling. Well, I guess that's it, huh? Thanks for making this memorable night. You all be safe getting home. [door closing] [pills jostling] [lid snapping shut] [coughing] Oh, I know. I know-- I know I'm not a perfect man, but you-- you always loved me like I was. You broke my heart. [cough] Are you OK? Of course, dear. What's the matter? Did you know? About what? Bascolm? Of course I did. You think I'm still beautiful? [crickets chirping] Hey. Go home. Where you going? [SHOUTING] Clara. You always had such beautiful skin. I never knew what to do withyou when you cried as a baby. I'd peer into your crib, touch your soft cheeks, and just watch you sob. Your throat must have gotten so sore. But Clark, oh Clark, he knew what to do. He'd take you out to the barnin the middle of the night, and he'd play that old piano for you. The cabin would get quiet, andI'd finally get some sleep. And so would you. Mom, why didn't you tellme what happened to him? After you were gone, I slept so well. I didn't see the point inbothering about your father. What about just to talk to me? I've been gone 16 years,and you never tried to call. Not once until now. Why? This is a special moment. I wanted you to be here for it. And I wanted to meet Clara. She's been so excited. You're only breaking your heart. Why didn't you try to meet her sooner? Why can't you stay for her? Some people makecompromises in their life, but I'm not one of them. And I certainly wasn't goingto compromise my death either. Didn't you miss me? You left, and I moved on, darling, just like I did with your father. I know you hate me, darling. But I'm so happy to meet her. [somber music playing] [music playing, night sounds] [dark music playing] [music - "the majesty of love"] The majesty of lovefalls down from up above. We'll never get enough of the majesty of love. We toil and fight this life andhope for our reward, We claw, and scratch, and bite,fear our neighbor's sword. We find a sweetness here,someone who we hold dear. We're the lucky ones. They will catch our tears. The majesty of lovefalls down from up above. We'll never get enough of the majesty of love. We laugh and turn away fromthe ones who need us most. We flee instead of stayafraid to face our ghosts. We hide our deepest fears withsex, drugs, rock and roll. But still they reappear whenthe sun lights up the world. The majesty of lovefalls down from up above. We'll never get enough of the majesty of love. |
