"(wheezes)" "Your friend is dead." "Drowned." "I'm sorry." "It is you and I now." "There is nothing we can do for him." "(whimpers)" "(panting)" "(Bunny wheezes and laughs)" "BUNNY:" "Oh, man." "How about that?" "Keep going, we're nearly there." "Incredible!" "One man risking his life, all for the beauty of a bet." "(chuckles) - 2." "Mm?" "2 men risked their lives." "Yeah." "I'm telling you, buddy, there's no way back from here." "I feel like I've finally become a man." "(grunts) Real man!" "(car horn blares)" "Oh, my God, she actually got that thing started." "Where the fuck have you two been?" "Are we going to this fiesta or not?" "Just a sec, baby." "Listen." "I won't be pissing around in the bookies any more." "I'm raising the stakes." "When we get to Spain," "I'm gonna fight a bull." "If you really want to be a toreador, you should talk to my brother." "Cos I remember, when we were growing up, all he would ever talk about was bullfighting." "Wow." "It sounds great." "He's technically retarded." " Oh." " We're supposed to be having fun." "Bullfighting is fun." "There's plenty we can do that doesn't involve the slaughter of an animal." "You're so naive." "Name me one thing that could be half as much fun as doing battle with an angry cow." " Fairground." " Fairground?" "I love fairgrounds." "There's one in the next town." " Cool." " We're not stopping for a fairground?" "Who said you get to decide where we stop?" "If you two want to go to a fairground, be my guest." "But count me out." "I'm serious about this, dude." "I'm in training." "For tomorrow, I shall fight a bull." "Olé!" "(clock chimes)" "Come on, you'll like this." "OK." "(low chatter and laughter)" "(machinery clanks)" "What's going on?" "Don't worry, it's an old ride." "(clanking)" " No, this is odd." "No, it's fine." "Listen, there's... (machinery powers down)" "ELOISA:" "OK, so this is a bit odd, actually." "What do we do?" "I don't know." "Have a drink?" "We might be a while." "You want?" "No, thanks, I've got my own." "What are those things?" "You should try one." "I don't know." "You'll like it." "It's very blue." "Mm-hm, and very tasty." "ELOISA:" "*Me pasé parala noch" "* De la cama, dáte pim pom" "* De la cama, dáte pim pom..." "* Pim pom... (giggles)" "So... you must be looking forward to going home." "Yes." "I never wanted to go travelling in the first place." "So why did you?" "It wasn't my idea." "It was Concita." "Who's Concita?" "OK, so one night in the fiesta, when I was... 15," "I had lots of drinks, lots of trippies, and I was walking home alone." "And my shadow froze... like this." "So I said, "Hey, are you going to come with me or what?"" "And my shadow... does this." "And I do this." "She was like..." "I was like..." "We were like... for 3 hours." "It wasn't as much fun as it sounds, actually, but." "This is Concita." "The first time I see her." "Right." "Hm." "After this, I start to see her many times." "And she says that she knows everything - what places I should go, what men I should see..." "Everything." "And she took me to Poland." "But she's a hallucination." "No, Concita is real." "Concita is always with me." "Is she here now?" "No." "She doesn't like you." "She's on the dodgems." "What did I do?" "Nothing." "You're really nice." "But she sees you more like a..." "like a friend." "You know, like a brother... or a gaylord." "Right." "Does she like Bunny?" "Yes." "She loves Bunny." "She thinks he's... hot stuff." "Right." "Sometimes I think she has very bad taste in men." "(machinery starts up)" " Oh." "Home time." "Here we go." "(train rumbles past)" "At last!" "Where the hell have you been?" "I've had to entertain your guests." " Food!" " I've told you, there is no food." " Bowl for dog!" " Top cupboard, there." " Bloody junkie!" " What's she doing here?" " She's a figment of your imagination." " Figment?" " Yeah, we're all in his head." " I'm not." "I am real." "What do you think you're doing here?" "Holiday?" "Good times?" "Holiday?" "You think they'd let you through Customs looking like that?" "BUNNY:" "Where's he gone?" "Come on, dude." "We're having fun." "(breathes deeply)" "Come on, dude." "Let's hit the bars." "Stephen, come with us to the fiesta." "Ooh!" "Yeah, I'm going to introduce you to my brother." "Ai!" "Paulo." "Hey, Javier!" "It's my beautiful sister!" "(chuckles)" "Look at you." "You look wonderful." "Do you think she looks sexy?" "Sí." "How dare you?" "She's only 23." "Get the hell out of my bar, filthy pervert." "Que haces, Javier?" "A small amount for medicinal purposes." "Que no deberías beber." "Te lo dijo el doctor." "The doctor!" "(spits) Eurgh." "Huh!" "Maybe I could get you a lime and soda." "(music stops)" "Oh, yes, that would be very lovely." "Very refreshing on a hot day like today." "(music starts up)" "Which one of you is making the bulls and cows with my sister?" "That's me, matador." "It's been a long time since anyone called me this." "But it's true." "I once dreamed of becoming a great matador." "But... sadly..." "(knocks on artificial leg)" "Ah... gored in the leg." "I fell back onto a coffee table." "Oh, right." "Only you English call it fighting." "For us in Spain, it is a dance." "A dance?" "You see, when the matador enters the ring with the bull, there is a moment when everything disappears, and the bull looks up at the matador, and the matador looks down at the bull." "And the bull rises up onto his hind legs, grabs the matador close with his silver hooves, and for a moment they dance... in only the way a bull and a man can dance." "Yes, my friend." "It's not a fight." "It is a dance." "(Stephen clears his throat)" "I thought the main attraction was the sight of a defenceless animal being stabbed repeatedly with a sword." "It is a peculiar dance, I'll give you this." "But it is a dance, nevertheless." "Let me show you something." "JAVIER:" "This belonged to Juan Belmonte, the greatest bullfighter who ever lived." "He tried to retire many times." "But he could not stop." "Even on his 69th birthday, he still wants to face the bulls." "He asks his friends to bring him one." "But they fear he will be killed and so they make excuses." "And they bring him a small one." "They say, "Juan, er..." "all the big bulls, they are sick."" "But he knows in his heart... his life as a torero is over." "So this night... he drinks 3 bottles of wine... makes love with 2 womans... takes a gun... and he shoots himself." "This is what it means to be a matador." "Wow." "Can I try it on?" "Maybe in 10 years, when you have faced a thousand bulls." "Then you'll come back, I open the cabinet, and you can maybe touch... the hem of the inside pocket." "Will you teach me?" "No." "Hm." "Hip flask of tequila?" "Meet me in the car park at midnight." "(clock chimes)" "Because of the complicated techniques involved in bullfighting, it can take up to 10 years to become a fully-trained matador." "Unfortunately, we only have 10 minutes, as I have to pick up my auntie from the airport." "I know what you are thinking - we have no bull." "Well, think again." "Huh?" "Now, much has been written about the art of bullfighting." "But I can sum it up in one sentence." ""Get out of the way of the bull, you idiot!" "Otherwise he will rip open your anus, like it was a cheap Velcro wallet."" "I will now become the bull." "(bellows)" "Ha ha!" "Whoargh!" "(car alarm blares)" "(cries out)" "What are you doing?" "Use the cape!" "Fucking idiot!" "What are you, a child in a swimming pool?" "Cover his head!" "Eloisa!" "Eloisa, go and get your auntie." "She's at Terminal 4." "(groans)" "I've been wanting to say thank you for the St. Christopher." "Oh." "Yeah, I..." "I sort of guessed it wasn't from Bunny when he tried to put it in a slot machine." "Well... you're welcome." "Thank you." "So... where do you see this thing with Bunny going?" "Well..." "I don't think Bunny is the sort of person you really make plans with." "Yeah." "You know..." "Concita always said I should sleep with 12 people." "13 would be very bad luck." "And Pawel was number 12." "That's why I stayed in Poland, even when I found out that he was a... donkey-fucking prick." "But then..." "I start to think that maybe Concita's not right." "Maybe she is just scared of number 13." "Maybe I'm scared of number 13." "Maybe." "Anyway..." "I realise, once I get over number 13," "I can start looking again." "Bunny is a perfect number 13." "I should go and find Bunny." "OK." "Buenas noches." "Good night." "Hey." "Hey." "Put it back." "If you want to be a bullfighter, you've got to dress like one." "I'll put it back when I've done it." "You're not going to fight a bull, Bunny." "I most certainly am." "Why not?" "Because it's dangerous and cruel and insane." "I don't want to kill it." "I just want to have a little dance with it, yeah?" "It's not the bull I'm worried about." "OK?" "Why are you always beefing on about this?" "Just trying to stop you doing something that could get you seriously hurt." "No, you're not." "You've been boring my tits off since Switzerland." "You used to be fun." "What the hell happened to you?" "Yeah, well..." "There is something." "Oh, finally." "Come on, then." "I'm in love with someone." "Yeah, I know." "Melanie." "No, not Melanie." "Someone else." "Oh, right." "Yeah, um..." "Oh, man." "I'm sorry, Stephen." "I guess it's a... bit awkward." "I know." "I mean, I'm flattered." "What?" "I'll do snogsies for the wank bank, but I've got to draw the line at penetration." " That's so messy." " It's not you, Bunny!" "Oh, thank God!" "You're not just saying that?" "Not everyone wants to sleep with you, you know." "Or are you so profoundly..." " You know what?" "It doesn't matter." " No, go on." "You're on your high horse." "You may as well talk down to me while you're up there." "Can you name one thing you've ever done for anybody other than yourself?" "Yeah, loads." "Go on, then." "Not off the top of my head." "Thank you." "At least I do something." "At least I didn't spend 3 years mooning after some girl who isn't even that good in the sack." "What?" "Hm?" "Well, yeah." "You spent so long banging on about her, I thought I'd better give it a go." "Let me tell you, I was severely disappointed." "(chuckles)" "You're not missing out on anything there, buddy." "Ooh." "You're unbelievable." "Do you know what?" "I'm fucking sick of being patronised by you." "If I wanna borrow this suit, then I will, OK?" "If I wanna fight a bull, then I will." "And if some hombre's caught your eye, then just man up and tuck in." "No-one's gonna judge you here, dude." "This is Spain." "Let's all just do what we want, shall we?" "Deal." "(spits)" "(train speeds past)" "(sexual moaning)" " Melanie?" "Hey, dude." "Hope you're cool with this." "Just doing what I want." "Sorry." "There was nothing I could do." "She just went for him." "BUNNY:" "Dirty girl!" "Ooh!" "Ooh!" "BUNNY:" "Hey, we both wanted to do this." "She real slut." "BUNNY:" "Chill out, dude." "Just do what you want." "Mm." "Stephen." "Everything all right?" "STEPHEN:" "Hang on." "I've got my foot caught in your panties." "ELOISA:" "Wow." "Nice penis." "STEPHEN:" "Oh, thanks." "ELOISA:" "No, I mean it." "Good size, good weight." "It's much better than Bunny's." "STEPHEN:" "Right... that's good to know." "ELOISA:" "What's your problem?" "STEPHEN:" "I'd rather not think about him right now, at this particular juncture." "(Eloisa laughs)" "STEPHEN:" "What?" "ELOISA:" "Let's just fuck, OK?" "STEPHEN:" "OK." "(condom dispenser bell dings)" "Here goes." "(moans)" "(moaning) ELOISA Oh, Bunny." " Bunny!" "STEPHEN:" "Right, that's it." "It's coming out." "Mm-hm." "Yeah, funny." "ELOISA:" "I'm just kidding." "Really, Stephen... this is nice." "STEPHEN:" "Yeah?" "ELOISA:" "Yes." "BUNNY:" "Dude." "Dude!" "Dude." "So you finally got your balls in." "What?" "Oh, God." "Yeah, Bunny, look, I'm really sorry." "It just happened." "I didn't mean..." "Well, I did mean for it to happen, but I should've spoken to you..." "Sshh!" "Hey, it's fine." "It's not as if she's my girlfriend." "Really?" "Yeah." "It's what we came here for, isn't it?" "Proud of you, man." "Thanks." "Hey... that's what friends are for, dude." "Mmm." "Bunny?" "Mm-hm?" "Why is your face so close to mine?" "What you talking about?" "It's unnaturally close." "Yeah, this is what's wrong with the world, isn't it, hm?" "A couple of buddies can't cuddle up together in the middle of the night without tongues wagging, people judging..." " Have you been drinking?" " Yes." "Look, Bunny, can you just get off me, please?" "Oh, my God." "Why are you naked?" "Erm..." "Yeah, I had a bit of bad luck." "What happened?" "Where's the suit?" "I can't lie to you, dude." "I lost it to a fat gypsy." "What?" "It wasn't my fault." "He cheated." "Well, I'm pretty sure he cheated." "Either that or he's just really good at cards." " You've got to get it back." " No dice, dude." "The fucker wouldn't let me keep my pants." "Technically that's not even part of the suit." "But you try reasoning with a big fat gypsy at 4 am in the nuddy-nud." " It can't be done, dude." " Javier's gonna go mental." " I know." " Sshh!" "(softly) I know he's gonna go mental." "That's why we've gotta get out of here before he wakes up." "Pack!" "I'm not going," "Bunny." "What?" "Sorry." "Oh, come on, buddy." "You've gotta help me out here." "I'm staying." "You can't abandon me." "Look at me." "I need you." "I'm sorry." "At least give me some pants." "And buy me a train ticket." "Give me some pants, dude." "Give me some pants!" "(ticking)" "Train's not for a couple of hours." "Sure I can't tempt you into one last little drinkie?" "I've got to go, Bunny." "I want to be there when she wakes up." "Explain what's happened." "Look, why don't I give her a call?" "Bunny, don't." "Seriously, I'll explain what happened." "I'll smooth things over." "It'll be fine." "Really." "Please." "OK." "Well..." "Have a good trip." "Yeah, you too." "I hope everything works out for you." "(phone ringingtone)" " Sí?" "Eloisa." "It's Bunny" "Listen, there's something I need to tell you." "About your brother's suit." "STEPHEN:" "Hey." "What's up?" "I just spoke to Bunny." " He told me everything." " What?" "BUNNY:" "You can't abandon me." "ELOISA:" "I just spoke to Bunny" "BUNNY:" "I need you." "Hey buddy." "What am I gonna do without you?" "(metallic squeaking)" "I can't believe she flew off at you like that." "I fessed up and everything." "Hm." "Guilt by association, I suppose." "I mean, there were a couple of things" "I could have been clearer on, in hindsight, but it was a very bad line." "You know, very crackly." "And I was very drunk." "Throw all that into the equation... whole thing was a bit of a blur, to be honest." "The important thing is, we're back on the road." "Boys on the train." "Olive?" "Come on." "Feel like I'm hogging them here." "No?" "Oh." "Come on." "Chin up, dude." "You'll be over her in no time." "I mean, honestly, hand on heart, can you even remember what she looks like?" "I know I can't." "And I was closer to her face a hell of a lot more often than you were." "Not to put too fine a point on it, but..." "We both know what I'm talking about." "There's no need to dwell on that at this stage." "Yeah." "Yeah." "Tell you what, we can go anywhere you want." "Anywhere you want." "No." "Listen to me, being insensitive." "I'll choose." "Let Bunny take charge for a change." "Here we go." "What is it you actually do, Bunny?" "You talk about me not doing anything, but what have you ever achieved?" "You go to Spain to fight a bull and what happens?" "You get pissed, fuck around in a car park, nick a suit, and then head out to play cards." " You want me to fight a bull?" " I don't..." " I'll fight a bull now." " It's not about the bull." "I thought you said it was dangerous and morally repugnant, but what the hell!" "There's bulls out there now." "Fields chock-full of them." "Let's go, amigo." " I don't..." " (passengers scream)" "I don't want to do this any more." "You can't help it." "I want to go home." "(cuckoo clock chiming)" "Hey, whoa." "Stop." "There's one." "Got him." "This is fucking ridiculous." "Let's go back." "I'm not going to save you, Bunny." "You won't have to." "Hey." "Toro!" "Have I missed anything?" " No." " Toro!" "(clanging)" "Again." "(snorts)" "(metal creaks)" "(exhales heavily)" "Not long to go now, buddy." "Come on." "(panting)" "(wheezes)" "(sobs softly)" "Subtitles:" "Arigon" "I'm sorry." "What for?" "I should have stopped you." "You couldn't have." "Anyway, it was a pretty good way to go." "Gored by a bull." "I mean, I had always hoped to be sucked out of an airlock or gunned down by some demented fan." "But erm..." "I'll take a bull." "It was a great bet." "You wanna do something for me?" "Go get laid!" "Have you any idea of the mileage you can get out of this?" ""Hi, my name's Stephen."" "(clears throat)" ""My best friend just died." "I don't know if I'll ever love again."" "Hooh!" "Bim-bim-bim!" "Wokachika, wokachika." "Balls in, balls in, balls in." "Fun time!" "Hm-mm, hm-mm." "If you'd have been killed, I'd have shagged a thousand women by now." "I don't want to shag a thousand women." "I don't wanna shag any women." "Apart from Eloisa." "(groans)" "I haven't spoken to her in a year." "Last time she saw me, she kicked my arse, remember?" "You can talk her round." "I wouldn't even know what to say." "Just tell her that I died and you had a really tough time dealing with it, and... you hope that somehow she can find it in her heart to..." "Boom!" "Boom-boom-boom." "Wokachika, wokachika." "Naughty, naughty, naughty." "Boom-boom-boom." "Wokachika, wokachika..." "At least give her a call." "(speech drowned by music)" "Have a good trip." "You not coming?" "No." "I don't think that's the deal." "I'll miss you." "Listen..." "Will you do one last thing for me?" "Yeah, of course." "(sighs)" " Bunny..." "What?" "Anything." "There's a horse running in the 5:05 at Epsom." "It's lost its last 3 races, but they just lowered his handicap." "He's blinkered for the first time." "The jockey's face is a real nightmare." " How much?" " Everything you've got." "Seriously." "Put the house on it." "It's a shoo-in." "Well, got to be at least worth a fiver." "OK." "Well... you ready?" "(exhales heavily)" "Yeah." "* LOVE:" "Alone Again Or" "* Yeah" "* I said it's all right" "* I won't forget" "* All the times I've waited patiently for you" "* And you'll do just what you choose to do" "* And I will be alone again tonight, my dear" "* Yeah" "* I heard a funny thing" "* Somebody said to me" "* You know that I could be in love with almost everyone" "* I think that people are the greatest fun" "* Yeah" "* I heard a funny thing" "* Somebody said to me" "* You know that I could be in love with almost everyone" "* I think that people are the greatest fun"
