00:06:14	[man] 12 hours of work
00:06:18	The days go on and on,
00:06:21	and they don't end.
00:06:24	My body fights me always.
00:06:27	It won't sleep, it won't eat.
00:06:34	The headaches are getting worse.
00:06:59	Thank you.
00:07:01	Hey. Mark.
00:07:06	- Hey.
00:07:09	Well, it's very nice

00:07:16	This is Makana.
00:07:19	- I'm her son.
00:07:23	Oh, don't listen to him.
00:07:25	I was never much of a mother to him. We
00:07:31	Mind you, where we come from,
00:07:34	- Makana's gonna take me surfing.
00:07:39	[mother] Bye.
00:07:44	[Mark] My mother
00:07:47	right out of "The Glass Menagerie".
00:07:50	She was afraid of getting old and said
00:07:55	She felt romantic
00:07:58	but remote from my father.
00:08:03	I don't think
00:08:06	He never told me he loved me
00:08:10	My mother always said
00:08:14	couldn't show
00:08:21	One time, he pushed my head
00:08:28	Sometimes I fantasised about
00:08:37	She said she only married him
00:09:06	Normal kids don't grow up
00:09:28	All my life needed
00:09:33	I don't believe you should devote your life
00:09:37	I believe that one should
00:09:49	I was starting to hate people.
00:09:52	The slightest rebuff or rejection
00:10:20	[phone rings]
00:10:30	Bang, bang.
00:10:34	Bang, bang.
00:10:36	You're dead.
00:10:57	I began withdrawing
00:11:59	I was losing
00:12:36	You know,
00:12:40	I just don't know
00:12:44	If I can keep up with everything.
00:12:48	Everything. You know?
00:12:50	You, Mom, my job.
00:12:53	I can't come down.
00:12:57	I feel like a victim right now, OK? I just
00:13:02	Over our world -
00:13:05	I need you to understand.
00:13:07	- Yes.
00:13:34	- We know it's you.
00:13:41	- If you persist in...
00:13:43	If you persist in harassing us,
00:13:47	What do you think this is?
00:13:50	then screw their savings and force them
00:13:54	- This is your last warning.
00:13:57	- Correct.
00:14:00	To destroy or enslave another soul.

00:14:11	Castle Memorial
00:14:14	June 21, 1977.
00:14:19	A science-fiction writer
00:14:22	You're not a religion.
00:14:44	My life was either happiness
00:14:48	I had no stable sense
00:14:52	I felt I was nothing,
00:14:54	a nobody.
00:15:09	I took refuge in public places.
00:15:13	I loved the library.
00:15:15	I loved the smell of books.
00:15:18	All that learning -
00:15:20	it's the essence
00:15:34	Miss Blakeslee taught me
00:15:37	Thurber, Ogden Nash.
00:15:40	Once a month, she brought us in
00:15:45	I volunteered as an assistant.
00:15:50	Things you like as a child
00:15:58	I was searching for
00:16:03	and, for my sins,
00:16:14	I hadn't read it since I was 16.
00:16:17	Now it burned in my hand.
00:16:20	It was like a current
00:16:22	and lighting up
00:16:26	Here was something
00:16:28	an unphoney way of life.
00:16:31	And the more I read,
00:16:36	I was actually becoming its hero,
00:16:39	Holden Caulfield.
00:16:52	I started reading "The Catcher in the Rye".
00:16:56	And then I read it again.
00:16:59	And I held it between my hands and put it
00:17:03	[echoing] I read it again, drinking in
00:17:08	..against my face...
00:17:11	..drinking in the aroma
00:17:16	..through my nostrils and my skin.
00:17:20	an unphoney a way of life,
00:17:28	I remember
00:17:30	It's ripped and torn. There is a tornado
00:17:36	Bits and pieces
00:17:39	A debris.
00:17:43	things I can 't see.
00:17:47	[thunder crashes]
00:18:02	- Well?
00:18:05	This is one of the most brilliant
00:18:08	[woman] He sounds a mess to me.
00:18:12	Of course he's a mess.
00:18:15	He tries to express what he feels.
00:18:18	He's a human being,
00:18:21	- I don't like the way he talks.
00:18:25	I suppose it's very clever,
00:18:29	Gloria, I gave you the book because
00:18:33	With me.
00:18:35	He doesn't fit anywhere,
00:18:38	- Don't you even read books?
00:18:40	No, not magazines and travel brochures
00:18:45	real books
00:18:48	Yes, I do, actually. And who says
00:18:52	Well, Japan...
00:18:54	That's... You need to understand The
00:18:59	If you understand Holden...
00:19:08	Real books. I'm talking about
00:19:12	- things that people read.
00:19:16	[Mark] Don't you even feel sorry for him?
00:19:18	I was identifying with a 16-year-old boy
00:19:22	and here I am, a 25-year-old man in Hawaii
00:19:28	- Hi.
00:19:30	I'm Holden Caulfield.
00:19:33	- Hi. Take a deep breath.
00:19:38	OK. It's all right. It's OK.
00:19:41	[Mark] It was a statement.
00:19:43	"Here is my identity. "
00:19:45	"Here is where my pain is. "
00:19:49	[children laugh and play]
00:19:59	"l keep picturing all these little kids
00:20:02	in this big field of rye and all. "
00:20:05	"Thousands of little kids,
00:20:07	and nobody's around -
00:20:12	"And I'm standing
00:20:15	"What I have to do,
00:20:18	if they start to go over the cliff - I mean
00:20:23	I have to come out from somewhere
00:20:26	"That's all I'll do all day. "
00:20:29	"I'd just stand there
00:20:32	"l know it's crazy, but that's
00:20:37	"l know it's crazy. "
00:20:41	Chapter 22.
00:20:44	Page 173.
00:21:00	Then I found another book.
00:21:02	Just as Holden Caulfield
00:21:06	John Lennon
00:21:13	There was John Lennon
00:21:17	He was on Liberty lsland,
00:21:20	He was at the base of the Statue of Liberty
00:21:24	with the scarf around his neck,
00:21:26	having his photograph taken.
00:21:28	I looked at the pictures
00:21:30	on the gabled roof
00:21:39	Those photographs of him on the roof
00:21:42	and they took on
00:21:45	And at some point,
00:21:49	I became enraged at him.
00:21:56	Something inside me just broke.
00:21:59	The great John Lennon,
00:22:01	who'd told us to imagine no possessions,
00:22:07	and yachts and farms
00:22:10	Iaughing at people like me
00:22:13	and bought all the records.
00:22:15	It reeked of phoneyness.
00:22:19	Confirmation.
00:22:25	As soon as I saw that picture,
00:22:27	I knew I was going to kill him.
00:22:42	It was like
00:22:44	A solution.
00:22:46	For the first time in years,
00:22:51	It's what Holden
00:22:54	killing the big fat guy
00:22:57	the pimp, the phoney.
00:23:07	- All done for the morning, sir?
00:23:09	- Yeah? Pretty rough night?
00:23:12	[man] Yeah?
00:23:15	Yeah.
00:23:22	Well, you have yourself
00:23:25	- You too.
00:23:38	[Mark] I'd found my identity,
00:23:42	Mark!
00:23:45	Mark! Mark!
00:24:09	[Mark] I'd sit up all night
00:24:12	speeding them up,
00:24:14	interjecting my own words.
00:24:17	I would strip naked,
00:24:20	and summoning the devil
00:24:25	I was sending out telegrams
00:24:28	"Give me the opportunity
00:24:39	I'm 25 years old.
00:24:41	My decision
00:24:44	You're going to abandon
00:24:47	and go thousands of miles away,
00:24:51	- It's always about you.
00:24:54	You're the one
00:24:57	and now you're gonna go away
00:25:01	Gloria is not under your care and Gloria
00:25:07	So you take care of you
00:25:10	and I'll be back
00:25:13	- I'm not buying it.
00:25:16	I know when you are lying to me.
00:25:20	why you feel the need
00:25:23	I want you to tell it to me
00:25:30	[laughs]
00:25:34	[clears throat]
00:25:36	My decision
00:25:39	- I don't understand the whole thing. I...
00:25:43	OK? I am just doing
00:25:47	You don't need to understand
00:26:11	"The phoney must die",
00:26:14	"The phoney must die",
00:26:35	- Can I help?
00:26:38	- OK. Anything in mind?
00:26:42	Well, if you get a.22 and a burglar
00:26:46	Handy little gun, it's fast,
00:26:50	But if you get a.38,
00:26:53	nobody's gonna laugh at you.
00:26:56	A fine, solid gun.
00:27:00	otherwise the same
00:27:05	Now, that will stop anything that moves
00:27:09	it's lightweight,
00:27:13	You know, some of these guns
00:27:17	you can hit somebody over the head
00:27:22	You can't beat quality.
00:27:25	Are you interested in an automatic?
00:27:31	How much?
00:27:33	With specialised grips,
00:27:36	169.
00:27:40	OK. I'll take it.
00:27:52	Hi. I'd like a ticket to New York.
00:27:54	One-way.
00:27:57	So long as you fill out a form and
00:28:01	- And where do I get that form?
00:28:04	But the gun has to be in your luggage.
00:28:08	- And that's it?
00:28:09	- Thank you very much.
00:28:14	[aeroplane engine]
00:28:35	[Mark] There's a smell in New York.
00:28:38	It's a scary smell and a cold smell
00:28:43	frightened of someone
00:28:47	[driver] Gonna be in town long?
00:28:54	You ever been to the city?
00:29:06	Where are you from, bud?
00:29:15	They don't have traffic like this
00:29:19	Have you stopped
00:29:23	It's great this time of the year.
00:29:28	A lot of snow.
00:29:30	[Mark] Take me where the freaks are.
00:29:34	[driver] You are where the freaks are.
00:29:37	New York is all freaks.
00:29:43	This is about as big as a freak section
00:29:53	Have you ever seen
00:29:55	Yeah. He's around.
00:29:58	Seen him in town.
00:30:00	He lives up ahead here.
00:30:04	Matter of fact,
00:30:06	Oh, yeah.
00:30:08	Right up... That's right.
00:30:11	It's right up near 72nd.
00:30:15	He's kind of a phoney, isn't he?
00:30:19	That all depends.
00:30:23	On what?
00:30:25	On his music
00:30:32	Maybe a little of both.
00:30:35	I guess you could say that.
00:30:40	You don't like music?
00:30:45	I did once.
00:30:48	What happened?
00:30:51	I found something else.
00:30:54	Yeah, that happens, you know?
00:31:25	- How much did you say it was?
00:31:27	- Here's 20.
00:31:39	[Mark] I checked into
00:31:43	Just like Holden.
00:32:55	I was like a boxer
00:32:59	all bloody and beaten.
00:33:21	[police radio echoing]
00:33:53	[Mark] It's what Holden
00:33:56	killing the big fat guy
00:33:59	the pimp, the phoney.
00:34:11	[gunshot]
00:34:15	[cameras click]
00:34:17	[newsreader] ...tonight, live.
00:34:19	If you've been
00:34:22	you already know
00:34:26	Something's
00:34:29	You're gonna hear about me.
00:34:32	Are you, uh...
00:34:35	Oh, no, no.
00:34:37	I just want you to be aware
00:34:40	Here, turn left here, at 72nd.
00:34:44	- John Lennon lives right there.
00:34:48	You can just pull over right up here,
00:34:51	- OK.
00:35:14	OK, let's see. Uh...
00:35:21	$7.80.
00:35:23	You got it, sir.
00:35:27	That's fine. Listen,
00:35:30	- You too. It was a pleasure meeting you.
00:35:35	All right.
00:35:40	Strange guy.
00:36:08	- Thi... this is the Dakota, right?
00:36:12	- Where John Lennon lives?
00:36:14	Wow. I can't believe I'm really standing
00:36:20	Sixth floor, right? Robert Ryan's
00:36:23	Not from here.
00:36:27	Rosemary's Baby was shot here,
00:36:30	I don't know.
00:36:33	So is, uh...
00:36:36	I don't know, man.
00:36:39	I think he's travelling
00:36:43	I'm from Hawaii.
00:36:45	Really? That's a pretty strong accent
00:37:00	[Mark] I cased the whole building,
00:37:03	walked all the way around it twice,
00:37:06	just like an assassin would.
00:37:31	[aeroplane engine]
00:37:41	[Lennon] When we first moved here,
00:37:45	which is the arty-farty section of town,
00:37:49	where all the students and the would-bes
00:37:54	She told me, "Yes,
00:37:57	and it took me two years to unwind.
00:38:00	[Mark] Shooting a man
00:38:04	It takes a lot of inner strength.
00:38:08	[Lennon] I can go right out this door now
00:38:12	You want to know
00:38:15	Or go to the movies. I mean, people
00:38:20	but they won't bug you,
00:38:36	[man] Don't forget what the Beatles have
00:38:41	to any one of our 14 pick-up points
00:38:44	and turn 'em in this week
00:38:50	[Mark] I'd found my identity,
00:38:57	"The phoney must die",
00:39:05	"The phoney must die",
00:39:17	"The phoney must die",
00:39:51	[man] Robert De Niro
00:39:54	Let's hear it for the great Jake La Motta,
00:40:00	[man #1] He was a fighter.
00:40:02	[man #2] Why does he have to make it
00:40:05	[man #1] A winner.
00:40:08	[De Niro] I've done
00:40:41	[man] In this typical town,
00:40:43	in this comfortable home,
00:40:45	three ordinary people
00:40:47	are about to live
00:40:59	[man #2] I used to figure you had
00:41:05	I know that wasn't fair, but you made us
00:41:09	I really admire you for it.
00:41:11	Well, don't admire people too much.
00:41:14	They'll disappoint you sometimes.
00:41:19	I love you.
00:41:27	I love you too.
00:41:59	[Mark] I had an experience
00:42:02	Somehow, in that brief time, my rage
00:42:07	The volcano was capped.
00:42:13	I realised I had a wife at home
00:42:20	Gloria, hi. It's me.
00:42:24	I'm coming home.
00:42:26	I've won a great victory.
00:42:29	Your love has saved me.
00:42:32	I was gonna kill him,
00:42:37	You know what I'm talking about.
00:42:40	Gloria, listen. Just listen.
00:42:44	I was gonna kill...
00:42:47	John Lennon,
00:42:48	but our paths didn't cross.
00:42:56	You don't believe me.
00:42:58	I even got to know the doorman
00:43:02	I could've done it.
00:43:07	I just wanna come back home to you.
00:43:12	I made such a big mistake
00:43:16	But I could've done it.
00:43:18	I really could've done it.
00:43:26	I lied to my wife.
00:43:29	I told her I threw away the gun
00:43:33	I told her it was over.
00:43:36	And it wasn't.
00:43:47	16 days later, I was back.
00:43:51	I told my wife
00:44:16	[man] Heavenly treasures
00:44:21	And so the poor people are also...

00:50:18	[moaning gets louder]
00:50:27	[Mark] When I heard the homos next door,
00:50:33	They disgusted me.

00:51:37	[Mark] On the streets,
00:51:41	and bums and whores,
00:51:43	I knew Holden was right.
00:51:46	It was all very clear.
00:51:53	Here is a little man
00:51:56	going against a giant phoney.
00:52:04	[voices echo]
00:52:08	[Mark] I wanted to
00:52:11	and I almost did.
00:52:15	But what glory is there
00:52:21	In the book, Holden checked out of
00:52:27	My $16-a-night YMCA
00:52:31	now became room 2374
00:52:37	Hell to heaven in a cab ride.

00:00:14	if you'd like that. Hm?
00:00:18	Have you ever been with a woman before,
00:00:21	Do you like it?
00:00:23	I mean, I have the feeling that
00:00:28	What turns me on is because
00:00:33	Pleasing.
00:00:36	Do you mind
00:00:38	Well, I think in the confines
00:00:42	of clothing and inhibitions.
00:00:45	Oh, inhibitions are always nice
00:00:53	Hi. I'd Iike an escort
00:00:59	Yes. Someone foreign.
00:01:01	Do you have any foreign women?
00:01:04	Someone exotic.
00:01:12	Good.
00:01:14	But she's gotta be quiet.

00:19:28	It was like I was in a movie.
00:19:31	I got a gun,
00:19:34	I thought he would just drop
00:19:40	I thought he was just gonna fall down,
00:19:43	Fall down dead.
00:19:45	[sirens approach]
00:20:01	[man] Freeze! Police!
00:20:03	Do it! Do it now!

00:22:24	The suspect at this time is...
00:22:26	First of all, his identity.
00:22:31	He comes from Hawaii. Police tell me he's
00:22:36	and began to hang around the apartment
00:22:41	He apparently ran into him for the
00:22:46	asking Lennon for his autograph.
00:22:48	Lennon gave it to him
00:22:52	Lennon went off
00:22:55	and we are told that Chapman remained
00:23:00	about eleven o'clock this evening.
00:23:02	Police officials
00:23:05	They say that Chapman came up
00:23:09	and emptied a.38 revolver.

00:24:40	I was in a very unreal,
00:24:43	I was in an utter panic
00:24:46	and wanted things to go back to the way
00:24:52	I felt anger spreading over my mind
00:24:56	and talking about
00:24:58	Iike I was being sucked into a giant wave
00:25:02	or even come up for air.
00:25:08	I didn't want to kill anybody,
00:25:12	and I really don't know
00:25:15	I asked God to help me,
00:25:19	but we're all responsible

00:26:10	but they are starting to return again,
00:26:14	that are so connected
00:26:16	and some also

00:36:07	- Didn't Iike his music, is that it?
00:36:13	You didn't Iike his Iyrics?
00:36:15	Well, I...
00:36:17	I thought I understood his Iyrics,
00:36:22	What's phoney
00:36:30	Have you ever
00:36:33	Killing?
00:36:37	Killing? Yeah.
00:36:40	I have thought about death.
00:36:43	I just killed a man.
00:36:46	Is that killing enough for you?
00:36:49	Do you ever think about suicide or taking
00:36:56	Yeah, I've thought about suicide.
00:36:59	I tried to wipe myself out
00:37:03	- You did?
00:37:05	And what happened?
00:37:07	I couldn't do it.
00:37:11	- You were?
00:37:13	I went up on top
00:37:16	and, uh...
00:37:19	I wanted to blow my brains out.
00:37:21	- Why is that?
00:37:28	It'd be all over the newspapers.
00:37:33	What stopped you?
00:37:36	Picturing myself
00:37:40	The fear.
00:37:42	Fear of physical pain.
00:37:46	I pictured my brains
00:37:50	I thought
00:37:58	Do you have that same picture
00:38:02	Do you think
00:38:08	Well, I'm sure he felt pain.
00:38:14	I don't know.
00:38:23	Did he do something
00:38:28	[clears throat]
00:38:30	I don't want to talk any more.
00:38:34	I'm trying to
00:38:37	Why is that?
00:38:40	Why do you think?
00:38:42	I don't know.
00:38:44	- Have you ever killed anyone?
00:38:47	- Have you ever seen someone dead?
00:38:51	Bullet wounds, blood?
00:38:53	Did you get excited about that?
00:38:58	I'm done talking.
00:39:12	It's conviction you want, is it?
00:39:18	- Or is it fame?
00:39:22	- You certainly are.
00:39:25	Thank you, Mr Chapman.
00:40:08	[PA] Stop there.
00:40:30	- Let's go and grab something after this.
00:40:35	- [men shout]
00:40:51	[shouting gets louder]
00:41:01	[man] Hey, killer!
00:41:10	See you soon, killer.
00:41:21	[newsreader] Lennon's killer had
00:41:25	under a 24-hour suicide watch,
00:41:27	before being moved to Rikers lsland jail
00:41:31	for his own protection
00:41:34	He spent his first two days
00:41:36	following a threat
00:41:39	"You don't have much time left. "
00:41:42	"Soon, killer. Soon. "
00:41:49	[Mark] Within days, the lawyer
00:41:54	This from a guy with a rep
00:42:16	I began reading "Catcher" again,
00:42:18	and it was like I was reading a whole
00:42:23	Iike I was reading a blueprint
00:42:27	I made a list
00:42:31	It was like the whole killing
00:42:35	just something
00:42:38	That's when I realised
00:42:41	to promote the reading
00:42:45	And that same electric current
00:42:48	and lit up
00:42:52	[roars]
00:43:02	I became euphoric, knowing now
00:43:07	for what I had done.
00:43:09	[gunshots]
00:43:10	[newsreader] Shots have been fired as
00:43:16	White House officials
00:43:19	but there are reports that three people
00:43:27	Joe Ewog was there
00:43:30	[Joe] A series of explosions
00:43:33	They'd gone into the back seat by
00:43:38	- He got that from me.
00:43:42	They surged back towards where I was,
00:43:46	They wrestled him to the ground,
00:43:49	[newsreader] John Hinckley Jr
00:43:54	and had imagined that she would be
00:43:59	Good idea. I had a backup Iist,
00:44:04	I was going for Jackie Onassis,
00:44:07	George C Scott,
00:44:10	Johnny Carson,
00:44:20	Very anxious.
00:44:23	Hyperventilating
00:44:26	Cooperative.
00:44:28	Insatiable need for attention.
00:44:32	Have you seen
00:44:35	Grandiose visions of himself.
00:44:39	Mood fluctuations.
00:44:41	Bingo.
00:44:43	Paranoid tendencies.
00:44:46	Rage.
00:44:48	What was the logic
00:44:51	Would you say
00:44:55	Tell me about your mother.
00:45:00	you're a separate person
00:45:09	[Mark] My mission was now
00:45:13	and I was gonna use my trial,
00:45:17	to promote
00:45:22	Two weeks before the trial,
00:45:26	that he wishes to plead guilty.
00:45:28	In a statement today, Chapman
00:45:32	and wanted him
00:45:34	Defence lawyer Jonathan Marks
00:45:38	to have a panel re-examine him
00:45:40	to determine if he was competent enough
00:45:43	The judge refused.
00:45:48	[Mark] I was never mad.
00:45:52	But there was one more task
00:45:57	I had to be purified.
00:45:59	Exorcised.
00:46:01	- I know you, Satan.
00:46:06	I command you, Satan,
00:46:09	I summon them up.
00:46:11	[shouts]
00:46:18	It is Christ
00:46:26	[man] Do you believe in God?
00:46:29	The devil?
00:46:37	[Mark] Have you ever woken up
00:46:40	with the sensation
00:46:43	You're not really awake,
00:46:48	Your eyes won't open
00:46:51	You just feel paralysed with a fear that's
00:46:56	You're so frightened, you've virtually lost
00:47:02	It can strip you of your identity.
00:47:05	There's nothing
00:47:08	I know.
00:47:11	[man] Holy Lord,
00:47:14	everlasting God
00:47:17	who once and for all consigned
00:47:22	who sent your only-begotten Son
00:47:27	[Mark] I was in a very surreal world.
00:47:32	and wanted things to go back to the way
00:47:39	[ "Come Rain or Come Shine "
00:48:11	[Mark] My whole life
00:48:14	a half-waking nightmare.
00:48:17	I couldn't wake up
00:48:21	I was scared to death,
00:48:23	I would try to scream,
00:48:25	and it would remain echoing in my chest
00:48:30	That was what came out
00:48:33	when John Lennon
00:48:37	What came out
00:48:39	was a giant scream
00:48:44	[gunshots]
00:49:01	[Mark] Listen to some
00:49:03	Iisten to the background
00:49:06	That screaming in the background,
00:49:09	Listen to him scream when he's singing
00:49:13	about being abandoned
00:49:17	Poor guy.
00:49:20	then his mother left him
00:49:23	Then his mother got killed
00:49:25	after she came back to him
00:49:30	To think, after a person had been through
00:49:34	then to get murdered
00:49:40	Thank you all very much.
00:50:05	[newsreader] Chapman
00:50:08	to the state supreme court in Manhattan
00:50:12	Chapman showed
00:50:14	when the sentence
00:50:17	but before that moment, there was to be
00:50:24	Chapman sat in a blue T -shirt,
00:50:28	When the judge asked if he had
00:50:32	Chapman rose
00:50:35	[Mark] "I'm standing
00:50:38	"What I have to do,
00:50:40	if they start to go over the cliff - I mean
00:50:45	I have to come out from somewhere
00:50:49	"That's all I'II do all day."
00:50:51	"I'd just stand there
00:50:55	"I know it's crazy, but that's
00:50:59	"I know it's crazy."
