"Publications like Rolling Stone and Spare Rib were created to feed the need for alternative narratives from the established newspapers of the day." "In much the same way, the Pauper Press of the 1790s in England was developed out of a need for mass representation for the popular classes." "Those magazines and fanzines of the '60s and '70s also provided a means of reaching beyond the official and thus, ultimately, beyond the ruling classes." "The Internet, in contrast, no longer requires there to be any notion of the group." "Its concern is wholly with the individual." "It is with lucrative serendipity, or perhaps just good branding, that Myspace is so called." "The juxtaposition suggests that the act of the individual in defining their cyberspace borders is more important than what it is filled with." "It is simply "your space."" "For the end of monetized mass communication is the end of the press baron champagne baths." "Thank you, Anna." "Very provocative." "Well done." "Does anyone else have a presentation to make?" "All right, make sure you turn in your final packet to Jacob." "And thank you very much." "Hi." "I don't need to give you mine, because I've already done it." " Cool." " Cool." "If she comes to invite wearing the same dress as me," " I will completely freak out!" " Hey, yeah... yeah." "No, it was OK." "It was fine." " Sweetheart, I really miss you so much." " Mum, can you just..." "I'll speak to you in a minute." "I have someone waiting on the other line." "All right, darling." "I miss you" " I love you." " OK, OK, OK, bye" " Hello?" " Hi, Anna?" " It's Jacob." " Hi." "It didn't freak you out?" "I guess you wouldn't be here if it had." "No, it was nice." "And it was funny." "It was kind of great." "I don't think you're a nutcase, by the way, at all." "I thought I'd better put that, just in case." " That was a good disclaimer." " Yeah, I just wanted to set that out." " "No nutcases here."" " Yeah." "These cups are huge." "They're like reservoirs." "It's almost bigger than my face." "Yeah, so what do you..." "What's your major?" "Furniture design." "That's why you're always drawing." "Yeah." " You like to write then?" " Yeah, yeah." "I mean, journalism is probably what I would want to kind of go into when I graduate." "I don't know." "Who knows what we're going to do when we leave." "You mean permanently when we leave?" "Like when we're dead?" "We'll be dead." "When we leave." "When we depart this planet." "So are you going to stay in LA after school?" "Yeah, I'd like to, if I can sort out my visa stuff." "So you grew up with your mum and dad?" "My mom." " And your dad?" " He passed away when I was ten." " Now, that's shitty." " Yeah." "It's quite shitty." "And what about you?" "Yeah, my parents, I'm very close to them." "It's only ever been..." "I'm an only child, so..." "Me, too." "Yeah, so I'm quite close to them." "But it's nice being away." "I think it's important to to get away from where you've grown up for some of your life." "I was thinking about leaving right now, actually." "Let's go." "Where do you want to go?" "Do you want to come up?" "She likes to go to bed early." "Oh, no, that's terrible!" "So I try not to make too much noise." "Do you want a drink?" "I only have whiskey." "Yeah." "I don't drink much... actually." "Cheers." "It's strong." " Is that the chair where you write?" " Yeah." "It's not very comfortable." "It does the job." " You like Paul Simon?" " Yeah." " Do you?" " Yeah, I love Paul Simon." " Really?" " Yeah, I love Graceland." " It's so good." " That's my favorite album." "Would you mind reading me something?" "What do you want me to read?" "Something you wrote." "OK." " You're not allowed to laugh." " I'm not gonna laugh." "I haven't read it out loud yet." "So you'll be the first person." "You sure you want to hear it?" ""I thought I understood it." "That I could grasp it." "But I didn't." "Not really." "Only the 'smudgeness' of it." "The pink-slippered, all-containered, semi-precious eagerness of it." "I didn't realize it would sometimes be more than whole." "That the wholeness was a rather luxurious idea." "Because it's the halves that halve you in half." "Didn't know." "Don't know about the in-between bits." "The gory bits of you and gory bits of me."" "I like "the halves that halve you in half."" " It's a bit childish." " No." "No." "Bye." "Hello, darling!" "Oh, my darling!" " I know!" "Hello!" " All right, enough of that." "Now, let's have a hug." "Come on now." ""Go!" "Wait!"" "It's just the "L's."" " He's a baker." "In fact..." " Did you bring me some bread?" " I did." " He did!" " He packed it in his suitcase." " It's so good." " He was baking yesterday." " Straight from the oven." "It's probably warmed all my shirts." "You're... you're... you're being..." "Oh, for God's sake!" "Bernard, stop it." "This is something I just have to ask." "I'm sorry." " We're very open in our house." " You don't have to answer." " We're not that open." "We are not." " We are!" "We talk..." "You may not be open, but Anna and I are." "We talk about everything." "I'm sorry." "I have to tell you this right now." "So don't be embarrassed." "You are being grown up?" "You are being adults?" " You do not have to answer that." " Yes." "Thank you." "That's all I needed to know." "That's perfect." "Jacob, do you like whiskey?" "Just to change the subject completely." " That is a very good idea." " I'm learning." "Anna's been teaching me." "She's an expert." "Of course, she learned from the master." "What's your favorite that we've tried?" " La..." "Laphroaig." " Laphroaig!" " I love Laphroaig." "It's my favorite." " She does." " It's great." " That's very sophisticated." " Drive safe." "Bye-bye." " Bye-bye." "Bye." " OK." "Close your eyes." " Why?" "Because." "Close your eyes." "Close your eyes." "Close them." "Count to 60." "Fifty-eight Mississippi, 57 Mississippi, 56 Mississippi, 54 Mississippi, 53 Mississippi... 38 Mississippi... 31 Mississippi, 32 Mississippi... 34 Mississippi, 35 Mississippi..." "I can open them now?" "I can sense you've brought something." "Thank you." "Thank you." "It's my chair." "Look underneath." "It's your first one." "I love you like crazy." "What are we going to do after we graduate?" "We..." "We'll sort something out." "Don't think about it now." "I'll come back and I'll get a work visa." "I hate thinking about it." "I'm not gonna leave." " Promise." " OK." "Yeah." "Yeah." " Sweetheart, you all packed?" " Yeah, pretty much." "I just can't believe it's tomorrow." "The time's gone so quickly." "You certainly left it to the last minute." "Well, it's difficult, because I won't see Jacob for the whole summer, so..." " How's he doing?" " He's good." "He's just in the shower." "He's got his website up and running, so he's pleased about that." "Darling, I know you're going to miss him." "Yeah, I just wish I could stay a bit longer, that's all." "Anna, darling, Dad to/d you what the lawyer said about overstaying the visa." " This is important." "You know that." " Yeah, I know." "Those are the rules." "We'll get things sorted over the summer." "Then you can go back to LA after Sarah's wedding." "Yeah, I know." "So..." "I'll see you tomorrow, Mum." "I'd better get going." "Yeah, we can't wait." "We can't wait!" "Yeah." "Bye, Mum." "Are they excited that you're coming back?" "Yeah, they can't wait." "My mum is very excited." "I'm glad that we're getting away for a... for a night." "But we'll come back here on the way back, before I go to the airport?" "Yeah." " What time is the boat?" " 10:30." " We haven't got that much time." " Don't worry." "It's OK." "I'm not worried." "Wow." "What happened?" " You OK?" " Yeah." " I just caught my finger." " Let me see." " It's OK." "It's fine." " Let me see." "There's nothing to see!" "I just hit it." "I caught it in there." "That feel better?" "So..." "What are you doing on Catalina?" "You look like a fisherman." "Are you a fisherman?" "No?" " Do you fish?" "I love to fish." " I'm just trying to read, Jacob." "That's fine." "Fine with me." "It's a fine island." "It's a fine island for reading." "That's my yacht, The Ahi." "Yeah, I like tuna." "I like tuna a lot." "I like tuna enough to name my boat The Ahi." "I saved a cat from a tree once." "I love you." "I'm sorry." "L'£'S OK." "You have nothing to be sorry for." "In 24 hours, I will be home with my parents." "I wish I could come with you." " It would be fun." " Yeah." "Well... my parents could always..." " No." " ...help out." "It's fine." "In two and a half months you'll be back." "Yeah, I know, I know, I know." "I was just thinking as an option." "But it will go so quickly, actually, that we won't even notice it." " We won't even notice." " No." "It's so nice." "Thank you." "Jacob." "I've made a decision." "I'm gonna stay." "I'm gonna stay for the summer." "And I'll just go back for the wedding and come back after that." "As much as I'd like that, you can't do that." " Why?" " Your visa." "I can't go back." "Then we don't have to be sad." "And we have so much fun." "And nothing to do." "And we can stay in bed all summer." "OK." "Oh, man." "OK." "OK." "Attention, Los Angeles International Airport travelers." "The TSA has limited the items that may be carried through the screening checkpoints." "Please state your reason for entering the country." " I'm going to be on holiday." " OK." " And where will you be staying?" " In Santa Monica." "It appears you violated your prior visa." "Were you aware of that?" "But I'm traveling as a tourist... this time." "Wait right here, please." " Hello?" " Hey, it's me." "Anna, what's the matter?" "I gave her my passport and she was asking about the visa." " They said what?" " I'm not gonna be able to come through." "Where are you right now?" "I've not even gone through." "I haven't even gone past passport... customs yet." " OK, baby, listen." "I'm gonna talk..." " I told them you were coming, and they said no, it has to be reviewed when I'm back in England." "I was like, "Can I just come through..." "through for... just for this trip?"" "And she was like, "No," because of the violation." "I'm gonna find somebody and I'll come get you, OK?" " OK, somebody's coming." " I'm gonna talk to..." " I have to go now." " I'll see you soon, OK?" "I promise I'll see you soon." "Do you know where customs is?" " Customs?" " Over there." "All right, thank you." " You have no idea?" " No, I'm sorry, sir." "So this is what's gonna happen." "You will not be allowed to leave the airport." "Two agents from Homeland Security are gonna come in here after I leave." "You'll be placed back on the plane immediately and returned to the UK." "Do you understand?" "Do you have any questions?" "Hi, Jacob." "It's Anna." "I'm sorry I missed your call again." "It's been pretty busy here." "Are you around at about five today?" "So, five... eight for you..." "9:00... 9am for you." "I can't believe I missed you again." "Let's try for later today, and if not, then hopefully on Monday." "Look, I'm gonna head to bed." "Maybe we can try tomorrow." "I know you said you had a thing for the magazine, but I'm just..." "I'm, like, really exhausted and I have to get up early for work." "So why don't you just send me an email and let me know /et me know when it's good for you to talk." "OK, I'll talk to you soon." "Bye." "Have you looked at those paginations?" "I need you to approve them." "Yeah, yeah, yeah." "Which pages don't you like?" "I'm working with these... these guys that I've worked with before." " And..." " Yeah." "These." "They're looking for a bedroom set for their..." "They have a two-year-old and a nine-month-old." " Can we pull this out?" " Anything you want." " This is fantastic." "Let me see this." " This is similar." "This is, this is... yeah." " Is this home, too?" " Yeah, right up there's home." " That's great." " Yeah." "When does he want delivery?" "First week of June." "So I'd say we could push it probably to the tenth of June." " OK." " He doesn't need it right away." "He's just getting into the whole sort of redesign." "Then are you going to the UK after that?" " No." " You're not?" " No, no, no." "No, no, no." " No?" "We sort of, a couple months ago, we agreed not to..." "You guys can just be like friends, you know?" "Yeah." " Thanks, man." "Yep." " All right." "I'll see you later." " There she is!" " Hew" "How are you QUE/S?" " You took so long!" " I know." "Whenever I'm going out the door, she gives me four more things to do." "Can I get a whiskey and ginger, please?" " Whiskey and ginger?" " Yeah, and no ice." "Thanks." " I know, but it's so hard." " Just save up some money and go." "Once you're in your job, it's just impossible." " Let's do a shot!" " Let's do shots." " Tequila shots?" " Oh, God." " Cheers!" " Cheers!" "Down in one." "Bolivia was two months, maybe." "But I was traveling all around." "Going around the little islands around South America." "Yeah, it was intense." "Have you traveled?" "Yeah, I spent some time in America." " Where?" " When I was studying." " Oh, yeah?" "Where about?" " I went to college in LA." " Oh, yeah?" " So..." " Yeah, I made some..." " Yeah, yeah, yeah." " ..." "Some really, really good friends." " Yeah, yeah, yeah." "Cheers." "Hey, I'll be right back." " Hey" " Anna?" " Hey." " Hey." "How are you?" "I'm OK, yeah." "I just..." "I just..." "It was a bit of a shock." "How's everything going?" "I moved into a new place." " Yeah?" " Yeah." "Yeah, that's great." "That sounds really good." "So, what have you been doing?" "I'm just working really hard and I'm busy and..." "Yeah, stuff's going... going well." "It's been a good few months." " That's great to hear." " Yeah, I just..." "I hope it carries on." "It's..." "It's nice to hear your voice." "I'm so sorry I woke you up." "OK, well, I'd better go before it gets too late and I have to be up." "All right." "OK." "OK, bye." "I'll talk to you later, all right?" "OK, bye." "Bye, Jacob." " OK, bye." " Bye-bye." " Hello?" " Hey" "H9Y" "Yeah, do you want to come over?" "Come over now?" "And..." "I'll just be here?" "Yeah." " OK." " Yeah, I'll see you in half an hour." "I'll see you in half an hour." "Just give me a couple days." "I'll get there, OK?" "OK." "OK." "What have you been doing?" "Waiting for you." "Have you been sleeping with loads of people?" "Yeah." "And then... we have to go and see my parents." "Yeah, of course." "We should only do very English things." "Yeah." "Let's have tea and crumpets." "Yes!" "Have you?" "Have you?" "Let's not talk about this." " Just tell me." " Not yet." "Have you?" "I said maybe." "I don't want to talk about it." "You're right." " You're right." "That was stupid." " Yeah." "It's a man." "Is it a man?" " Hello." " Hi." "I've got a delivery for you." "Oh, wow!" " What is it?" " It's a massive box." "Do you know anything about this?" "No." " You got it?" " Yeah." "Oh, it's my chair!" "Oh, my God!" "Hey, Anna." " Hello." " Here you go." "Thank you very much." " Sorry I kept it." " Was it useful?" " It was all right." " Good." " You all right then?" " Oh, amazing, yeah." "Yeah." " Did you have a nice evening?" " It was OK." "She burnt the meal again." " What?" "!" " I know." "God help her." "All right, thanks a lot." " OK, thank you." " Everything all right?" " Yeah, good." "How are you?" " You sure?" "Yeah, don't I seem it?" "I'm just, like, cooking away." "I hope I haven't burnt the chicken," " but what can you do?" " Well, I'll let you go." " OK, thank you." "I'll see you soon." " All right, see you." " Take care." " Bye, Simon." "H9Y" " Hey, guys." " Hello!" " How are you?" " Hello!" " Natalie." " Jacob." "Really nice to meet you." " Hello." " Hi, I'm Jacob." " So nice to meet you." " You, too." " How's everything going?" " She's moving in with her boyfriend." " No, I don't think so." " Who is this?" " John." " Are you nervous?" "I would be so nervous if I was you." "I know." "It's a big... change." " Oh... taking that step." " I know, yeah." "So, the other day, we got some passes come through to the office for a spa." "I think it's the one in..." " There's four of them." " Oh, great!" "My God, that's amazing!" "I had the most incredible massage there." "I'm not free next weekend, but the weekend after." " Great." "That'd be lovely." " Oh, that'd be amazing." "Leave early, yes..." " Good to see you." " It's so great to see you." "Come on in." "All right." "Sorry." " Hello!" "Hello." " Hi, how are you?" "So great to see you." " And how's business?" " It's been good, actually." "Very, very lucky." "We..." "How many more days has he got here?" "Not many." "So, what are you going to do?" "I mean, is this how it's going to be?" "I don't know." "Don't ask questions like that." " I don't know, we'll see." " It's expensive." "You can't just keep" " flying back and forth." " I know that." "We're just making it work how we can at the moment." "And then we'll see what happens." "We're just taking it each day as it comes." " I've just moved in to a loft space." "But we're very lucky because things have been going really well." " Good." "Yeah." " Yeah." "Ideally, it'd be great to work out here." "It's just I am so set up in Los Angeles." "No, I understand." " Stop it!" " All right." " This is a blended whiskey." " Oh, no, here we go!" "And all I want you to do is just try it." "OK?" "And then we'll move on to something much nicer." " You have to close your eyes." " You don't have to close your eyes." " You do have to close your eyes!" " All right, close your eyes." "All right." "Just a flavor of whiskey that you know." "This is a single malt, and it's been in casks for 12 years." "And I know that because it says so right on the bottle!" " That's so good!" " You can share it." "And there is vodka in it, but not that much." " Although..." " What else do we need?" "I'm not a big..." "I have to admit to you all..." " You had the tiniest, tiniest sip!" " ...that I'm not a big fan." " What, of tomato juice?" " Of the Bloody Mary?" "It's such a pity you have to go back." "Yeah, I wish, I wish I could stay longer." "I really do." "Well, it would be so much easier if the whole immigration thing was sorted out." " I asked you..." " Because I know Harry has been a bit of a slowpoke handling this stuff, but once you've annoyed them, you have to play by the book." "And it takes much more time and, I tell you, a lot more money." "I realize all you did, darling, was overstay" " for a couple of months." " Do we have to go over it again?" " No, we don't, but..." " We've been through it so many times." " But why not go for an easier solution?" " Bernard." "If you two got married, it'd save me a lot of money." " Bernard!" " What?" " Well, it would be." " Sorry." "I think you've had enough of the whiskey, all right?" " I don't think I've had enough." " I don't want to embarrass them." ""Tantony." It's the runty pig of the litter." "You're so stupid!" " Oh, God, I've got to stop it." " This is far more disciplined" " than we normally are, I might say." " Right." "Who's dasher now?" " You, Mum." " Oh, no, no." "Really?" "I just feel weird." "Why do you feel weird?" "I just feel kind of..." "You feel weird..." "I hate it when you say you feel weird." "Why?" "Because it doesn't feel like I'm actually part of your life." "I feel like I'm on vacation." "I don't know." "That's not how it feels." "It just..." "I don't know." "It just feels weird... sometimes." "Well, would it be easier if you felt like you could see other people when we're not together?" "Is that what you want to do?" "Then why would you bring it up?" "Because I don't want you to feel like you're not living your life properly when we're not together." "Are you attracted to other people?" " No, I'm not attracted to other people." " Why did you have to think about that?" "Because it's a silly question." "No, it's obviously not a silly question if you have to think about it." "I don't mean it like that." "I don't mean that I'm attracted to other people." "I just mean it's hard to keep stopping and starting." "And I'm sorry about my dad mentioning stuff that obviously disturbs you in some way." "This is a Piccadilly line service to Heathrow terminals one, two, three and five." "Do you want yourjeans ironed?" "Your jeans." "Do you want me to iron them?" "Sure." "Jacob Helm." "This is Samantha." "Hi, how are you?" "No." "No later than three weeks." "OK." "All right." "Just let me know." "OK, bye." "Did they say they could do it in three weeks?" "Yeah." " Well, they always do." " I know." " Oh, hi, Anna." " Hey" "You fancy a cup of tea?" "Yeah." "OK." "I actually might stop off and go to Topshop after work." "Oh, yes." " Do you want to come with?" " Oh, yes, let's, let's." "So I read your thing." "It's good." "So who is this person?" "It's... it's someone that is is very close to me." "And he's been quite an inspiration in my life, and I almost..." "Through my writing, I wanted to..." "give something back." "Yeah." "When I was reading it, it made me think about the fact that when... when I was..." "I was working in New York at Nylon mag, and my husband was in Los Angeles so he was driving across country." "So on the way over, he would take all these pictures of himself and the dog at various places." "So I sent photos of me." "And then we put them all together, and they were like this moment in time." "Being separate, but yet we were together in these photographs." "Well, I was going to say that it's a way of even kind of keeping you together." " Connecting." " Yeah." "Now, there's the challenge." "Yeah, it's hard." "It made me miss him more." "So... you know we have this blog." "I would like you to take over the blog and start writing for the magazine." "Wow." "That's great." " Yeah, that would be..." " We need a really nice young voice, and I think that you are that." " I don't feel very young." " Well, you are." "No, I would..." "it would be a privilege." "Good." "Yellow, red, maybe an orange." "Some different shades of orange." "Whatever kind of orange you think." "Hey, Anna, could you get the phone?" "Jacob Helm." "This is Samantha." "If I tried... if I tried orange..." " Thank you." " ..." "It doesn't have to stay on." "As long as they don't put a veneer on it." "If she likes that and you like that, great." "Are you mad at me for some reason?" "What?" "No." "You sure?" "Yes." "Why would I be mad?" "What happened earlier today didn't upset you?" "It was a mistake." "I'm sorry." "It's all right." " Are we gonna go out tonight?" " Yes." "Do you want to?" " Yeah." " Good." "Hey, I'm gonna go to the bathroom, OK?" " Anna, I..." " I just have to say one thing, and it's really important that you just listen to me." "I just..." "It doesn't feel like this thing is going to go away." "It's always there." "I can't..." " I can't get on with my life." " We agreed." "I know, Jacob, but the things that we have with each other," "I don't have with any other person." "With any other human being apart from you." "We should be with each other." "And I feel it so strongly." "And I feel like... it's right for us to get married." "That's our only option now." "I don't want to have regrets about us." "And we can make this work if we do that." "I spoke to Harry, and he said it'll only take six months, and then I can come back." "And then we can be together." "So will you just think about it for us?" "Just come for a few days, and then we can make this work." "I know you talked to her." "Yeah." "Yeah." "Come here." "Sam..." "You're such a nice, giving, caring human being." "And it's not fair for you to have to experience things and be with someone that isn't fully there for you." "And I'm sorry, because I have to go to London." "I'm so sorry, Sam." "I love you." "OK." "I'm sorry, Sam." "Yeah." " I do solemnly declare..." " I do solemnly declare that I know not of any lawful impediment that I know not of any lawful impediment why I, Jacob Matthew Helm why I, Jacob Matthew Helm may not be joined in matrimony - ...may not be joined in matrimony" "...to Anna Maria Gardner." "...To Anna Maria Gardner." "They now wish to affirm publicly their relationship and to offer each other the security that comes from vows sincerely made." "Jacob, place the ring on Anna's finger." " I give you this ring..." " I give you this ring as a token of my love and affection." "As a token of my love and affection." "And, remembering this day, never allow anything to destroy the feeling that we share for each other." "Wear it with a feeling of love and joy..." "Always." "You have made a solemn and binding contract with each other here in the presence of your witnesses this morning." "It gives me great pleasure to tell you that you are now husband and wife." "You'll need the witnesses." "Be careful." "L'['S huge!" "I should have grabbed glasses." " I'm an idiot." " No!" "Should we just drink it that way?" "That's very classy." "We have to wait... patiently." "For six months." "I hate six months." "It's all gonna be OK." "Six months." "Oh, you're killing me." "All right." "All right." "Jacob and... is it Anna?" " Anna." " Anna." "I see a lot of good documentation here, and I have looked through some of it." "Sorry, I forgot to..." "They're..." " Books?" " ...just books and a record of our relationship since we first met, that... that I produced each year." "Let's see." "What are these tickets from?" "We both really like Paul Simon." "And one of our first dates, when we'd met, we went to see him in concert." " When was that, Jacob?" " Two months after we met." " How was the concert?" " It was great." " Yeah." " He's great live." "Yeah." "And here's your marriage certificate." "I know you got married here in London" " just a few months ago, yes?" " Yes." "Well, I want to tell you that I don't doubt the authenticity of your relationship." "However, what is at issue..." "I see here four, is it, appeals." "These are the official documents dealing with the violation of the student visa." "And this imposed a ban." "And that, unfortunately is the..." "comes down to the reason that I can't process your application for marriage visa, nor lift the ban." "It has to come from the student visa office." "Yeah, but we've already applied several times throughout the last couple years, as you can see." "So I don't know how many times you expect us to do it." "I mean, I don't know how..." "We were told..." "I was told by my lawyer that this would be dealt with separately from the visa violation, which is why we're here." " We've appealed four times." " He was misinformed." " That is what is in the way." " This is a separate situation." "Then I want to know who he spoke to, because we speak to someone different" " every single time." " Should there not be one person who's dealing with our particular application?" "I wish I could process this right now, but it is not up to me, and I will handle it as soon as I get a lift on the ban." "I'm sorry." "Where did you go?" " Where did you go?"
