00:01:40	Was that in 1913 or 17?
00:01:46	I'm beginning to forget
00:01:56	Do I remember Louise Bryant?
00:02:00	Why, of course.
00:02:09	I can't...
00:02:10	I might sort of scratch my memory,
00:02:14	but not at the moment.
00:02:17	You know, things go
00:02:21	It was Christopher Street,
00:02:24	and I was thinking about
00:02:27	another street down there instead,
00:02:30	until it came back
00:02:34	Sometimes I have lapses like that.
00:02:39	I'd forgotten all about them.
00:02:41	Were they socialists?
00:02:44	I guess they must've been,
00:02:46	but I don't think they were
00:02:49	I don't remember them at all.
00:02:51	I know that Jack went around
00:02:54	and then he went around
00:02:57	and then he went around
00:03:01	I know there were shifts back and forth,
00:03:04	but it never occurred to me...
00:03:06	It never impinged on
00:03:10	I like baseball.
00:03:11	I don't know what
00:03:14	But they were a couple.
00:03:17	I mean, you always spoke of
00:03:20	I recall his telling me
00:03:25	when he came to college.
00:03:26	One was to be elected
00:03:29	He didn't know anyone in the class.
00:03:32	The other was to make a million dollars
00:03:36	by the time he was 25.
00:03:38	Now, my idea about Jack Reed
00:03:43	But I knew him well.
00:03:47	I knew he was independent.
00:03:49	And I have an idea,
00:03:53	that his wife was a Communist
00:03:55	and that his wife had influenced him,
00:03:59	as you know and I know.
00:04:04	Louise Bryant?
00:04:05	Well, I thought she was something
00:04:09	No, I'm not gonna talk about people.
00:04:13	No, sir. I'm not... I'm not
00:04:17	a purveyor of neighborhood gossip,
00:04:20	That's not my job.
00:04:21	He was quiet.
00:04:24	He was a nice fellow.
00:04:27	I would say, if I met him,
00:04:32	He was, however, a fighting fellow
00:04:36	in regards to principles.
00:04:38	I said, I think,
00:04:42	in the condition of the world
00:04:45	either has no problems of his own
00:04:47	or refuses to face them.
00:04:50	Jack...
00:04:53	but some people did.
00:04:54	Jack Reed's life, short as it was,
00:04:59	happened at a time,
00:05:01	and all of us, after all,
00:05:05	when he had the opportunity,
00:05:09	to be in some very exciting
00:05:12	It isn't everybody can
00:05:16	and he's the only American.
00:05:19	Born in Portland, Oregon.
00:05:23	Now, isn't that something?
00:05:25	- What's he hugging?
00:05:27	Well, I can see that.
00:05:30	It's just a statue, Mr. Woodward.
00:05:32	- How much is it?
00:05:34	- For a photograph?
00:05:36	This is interesting, Mrs. Trullinger.
00:05:38	Not that it isn't very nice,
00:05:41	Mr. Woodward,
00:05:43	- I think I see the intention here.
00:05:45	Eve dominates, you see?
00:05:47	The dream dominates the dreamer.
00:05:49	It's...
00:05:53	It looks blurry to me.
00:05:55	The other one looked blurry, too.
00:05:58	I think that's the intention
00:06:01	What? To be blurry?
00:06:03	But perhaps if you looked at it
00:06:05	Louise!
00:06:07	This is you?
00:06:15	Lovely figure.
00:06:26	Louise, have you taken
00:06:27	Don't be a fool, Paul.
00:06:29	You think I'm a fool
00:06:31	being displayed naked in front
00:06:33	Yes. My God,
00:06:35	What's the matter with you?
00:06:36	You used to call Portland
00:06:39	It may be stuffy and provincial,
00:06:40	but it also happens
00:06:42	You can take your living
00:06:44	because I can earn my own living.
00:06:45	I have my work.
00:06:46	You consider a few articles in
00:06:50	No, I'll tell you
00:06:51	It's making yourself
00:06:54	It's shocking Louise Trullinger,
00:06:57	Now, we're gonna say good night
00:06:59	- I'm going to the Liberal Club.
00:07:02	- I'm going to the Liberal Club, Paul.
00:07:05	It's very nice, Mrs. Trullinger. All of it.
00:07:08	It's very gratifying to hear,
00:07:11	Isn't it, Louise?
00:07:16	Of course, you know
00:07:19	Patriotic Americans believe in freedom.
00:07:22	And unless we are willing to take arms
00:07:26	we cannot call ourselves
00:07:31	I'm proud to be free.
00:07:33	I'm proud to be an American.
00:07:35	And if the man
00:07:38	that our freedoms are being threatened
00:07:39	and that the world must
00:07:43	then I know I won't be alone
00:07:47	What is this war about?
00:07:50	Each man will have his own answer.
00:07:52	I have mine. I'm ready to be called!
00:08:04	Now, tonight we have with us
00:08:06	the son of Margaret
00:08:11	who has witnessed this war first-hand.
00:08:13	And I, for one, see no reason
00:08:17	shouldn't listen to what
00:08:25	What would you say
00:08:39	Profits.
00:08:42	What did he say?
00:08:49	Excuse me, Mr. Reed.
00:08:51	and I am a journalist.
00:08:52	And I was wondering if you might
00:08:55	I'm sorry, I don't. I don't do interviews.
00:08:56	I had a piece in the Blast not long ago.
00:08:59	- Berkman's Blast? Really?
00:09:06	Well, when did you want
00:09:07	Now.
00:09:09	I don't live here.
00:09:10	- I live in a house by the river.
00:09:12	My, my, my. Two places.
00:09:16	Yeah, I use this place as a studio.
00:09:20	Do you like white lilies?
00:09:22	They're my favorite flowers.
00:09:25	- You're not married, are you?
00:09:29	- Are you married?
00:09:30	How could anyone believe in marriage?
00:09:32	I bet your mother's glad
00:09:35	Just glad when I'm not in jail.
00:09:38	Yes. Do you like it?
00:09:41	Yeah. I think they're...
00:09:44	- A little blurry, but this one's very nice.
00:09:48	It is. Now...
00:09:51	Granted, the profit motive
00:09:53	is a basic root cause for the war.
00:09:55	Do you feel that those
00:09:58	and who ascribe their motives
00:10:01	And, if they're cynical,
00:10:04	who feel that without a profit motive,
00:10:06	the power structure elite of this country
00:10:08	even though they feel
00:10:10	of German militarism
00:10:12	All right, Miss Bryant, do you want
00:10:15	Are you naive enough to think
00:10:16	containing German militarism
00:10:18	Don't you understand that England
00:10:21	and Germany just wants a piece of it?
00:10:22	Keep writing, Miss Bryant.
00:10:23	Miss Bryant, can't you grasp
00:10:26	has loaned England and France
00:10:28	And if Germany wins,
00:10:30	More coffee?
00:10:32	to protect J.P. Morgan's money.
00:10:33	If he loses it, we'll have a depression.
00:10:34	So, the real question is,
00:10:35	why do we have an economy
00:10:38	so the rich won't lose money?
00:10:39	All right, now, what haven't we covered?
00:10:41	Economic freedom for women
00:10:43	and sexual freedom
00:10:45	Dissent! The Masses stands for dissent.
00:10:47	...we have a predominantly
00:10:48	upper-middle class readership.
00:10:50	So, we have to run around the country
00:10:52	any way we...
00:10:58	What?
00:11:00	Well, I'm thinking that I guess I...
00:11:03	That I ought to offer you more coffee.
00:11:05	I hadn't realized the hour, but
00:11:08	I seem to have taken up
00:11:11	Well, that's okay by me.
00:11:15	Does this happen to you often?
00:11:18	Not often enough.
00:11:21	Well?
00:11:24	We certainly have come a long way fast.
00:11:26	Yeah.
00:11:28	Do you want to take it a step further?
00:11:31	Yeah.
00:11:35	What would you think if I asked you
00:11:36	that might seem a little selfish?
00:11:39	Well, I... I think you should.
00:11:41	Good. Good, because I'd like you
00:11:44	and tell me what you think.
00:11:45	You see, I really respect
00:11:48	Well, it's odd,
00:11:50	if you had anything
00:11:51	I know it's an imposition
00:11:54	I've read everything
00:11:56	Well, I'd be happy to do it. So, that's...
00:11:58	Well, thank you.
00:12:00	Well, then I... I'll get your coat.
00:12:04	Oh, and I hope you won't
00:12:06	- Gentle?
00:12:07	You can really be tough.
00:12:08	No, I will be. No, I will be.
00:12:10	- Thank you.
00:12:12	- Do you want me to leave?
00:12:15	- Late at 6:00 in the morning?
00:12:18	Well, could I see you tomorrow night?
00:12:20	I'm busy tomorrow night.
00:12:21	- Because I'm leaving town the next day.
00:12:24	So, if you have time,
00:12:26	and I'll send you a copy of the interview.
00:12:28	Some interview, huh?
00:12:31	Take a look sometime.
00:12:34	Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Okay, I understand.
00:12:37	- Bye.
00:12:48	Jack, dear,
00:12:51	Used to be at the First Presbyterian
00:12:54	He's in Seattle now
00:13:01	What brings you out here, Jack?
00:13:04	Just come out to see your mother?
00:13:08	Mr. Partlow, I just... I'm raising money
00:13:13	- What?
00:13:15	for this magazine that I write for!
00:13:17	- Magazine? What magazine?
00:13:19	Well, it's called The Masses.
00:13:20	- The what?
00:13:22	- The Masses.
00:13:24	Jack, do you remember
00:13:27	The one with the bad arm?
00:13:28	- Is that religious?
00:13:31	Oh, you remember her, Jack.
00:13:33	She didn't eat meat.
00:13:34	Sounds religious.
00:13:36	You remember the fellow
00:13:38	Sold spool thread.
00:13:41	- Not religious, huh?
00:13:44	- What was his name, Jack?
00:13:47	Well, I don't know about you people,
00:13:50	I don't know, Mrs. Partlow. I...
00:13:52	Jack, I heard you made a few people
00:13:54	down at the Liberal Club last night.
00:13:56	Oh, Carl,
00:13:58	let's not go into that.
00:14:00	What was his name, Jack?
00:14:01	- Here you are!
00:14:04	Welcome. So happy...
00:14:05	- Hello, Jack.
00:14:07	Oh, you look wonderful.
00:14:14	Alma, this is Louise Trullinger.
00:14:16	Alma Boyle.
00:14:20	Jack, Louise is quite a progressive
00:14:22	Mr. Partlow.
00:14:24	- How do you do, Mr. Reed?
00:14:27	Oh, Mr. Partlow, Mrs. Partlow,
00:14:30	- Pleased to meet you.
00:14:32	Are you Paul Trullinger's wife?
00:14:35	Yes. Yes, I am.
00:14:37	Well, isn't that something?
00:14:39	He did Frank Rhodes' bridge.
00:14:41	Oh, Mrs. Trullinger, your husband's
00:14:45	- Thank you very much.
00:14:47	And I think he did a plate
00:14:49	Oh, we won't wait for Harry and Martha.
00:14:52	All right, let's go in.
00:14:53	What a shame Paul
00:14:55	- An emergency?
00:14:56	Not Uncle Grover's plate, I hope.
00:14:57	- No. Uncle Grover's plate's like new.
00:15:01	Did free love start
00:15:04	Very good wine, Carl.
00:15:06	- More, Jack?
00:15:11	It's just delicious, really.
00:15:13	Don't you think so, Mrs. Trullinger?
00:15:15	Yes, it's just delicious.
00:15:17	Thank you, Louise.
00:15:18	- Dupont, I think.
00:15:22	It is Dupont, isn't it, Harry?
00:15:23	Mother doesn't want you to get Jack
00:15:27	You got any children, Mrs. Trullinger?
00:15:29	Not yet, Mr. Reed.
00:15:31	- Call me Jack.
00:15:33	Don't get me in any arguments
00:15:35	It's getting cold outside.
00:15:37	I'll just call you Louise.
00:15:38	George Waldorf.
00:15:41	Used to sell spool thread.
00:15:43	- What about George Waldorf?
00:15:47	I couldn't think of letting
00:15:49	Tell me something.
00:15:51	Does Dr. Trullinger mind your
00:15:54	People have to give each other
00:15:57	Freedom, Mrs. Trullinger?
00:16:00	I'd like to know
00:16:02	Having your own studio? Walk...
00:16:11	I'd like to see you
00:16:39	Marching and shuffling along
00:16:57	I didn't realize the time.
00:16:58	So, if you like, there's some
00:17:01	And you can make toast out of that,
00:17:04	So, bye.
00:17:06	Where you going?
00:17:07	Where you going?
00:17:09	If you're catching the 2:45, I mean,
00:17:12	- I'm sure you're gonna want to pack...
00:17:14	It's 8:45.
00:17:15	Listen, I realize
00:17:17	but I'd be grateful
00:17:19	to write a few words to me
00:17:20	Oh, yes. Oh, yes.
00:17:22	If you'll just send my portfolio back.
00:17:24	Louise, wait a minute. What are you
00:17:27	Will you come upstairs, please,
00:17:32	Thank you.
00:17:34	- Listen...
00:17:39	Why don't you come?
00:17:40	- What?
00:17:41	You wanna write?
00:17:43	If you wanna have freedom you gotta go
00:17:46	You're gonna go to waste in Portland.
00:17:48	- You ought to be in New York.
00:17:50	I'll remember that.
00:17:51	- What?
00:17:54	Please come with me.
00:17:56	All right, wait a minute.
00:17:58	You want me
00:18:00	Yeah.
00:18:02	What as? What as?
00:18:04	- What do you mean, what...
00:18:05	- Your girlfriend?
00:18:08	What as? Your girlfriend,
00:18:09	your mistress, your paramour,
00:18:13	Why does it have to be as anything?
00:18:14	Because I don't wanna
00:18:16	of emotional possessive involvement
00:18:21	I want to know what as.
00:18:23	Well, it's nearly Thanksgiving.
00:18:28	I always thought she was
00:18:32	Probably the dentist knew nothing
00:18:37	and was mainly interested...
00:18:40	And then she had
00:18:43	who could talk about all sorts of things.
00:18:46	I had a coat I brought from Germany.
00:18:49	And she wanted that coat
00:18:51	and made me all kinds of propositions.
00:18:56	But I wanted it, too.
00:18:59	But finally I gave in and gave it to her.
00:19:02	I had other coats.
00:19:05	So that's how she operated.
00:19:13	She went after him.
00:19:16	So she wasn't any dummy.
00:19:20	But it was something to happen
00:19:24	You didn't hear the word "sex."
00:19:26	You didn't hear the word "lesbian."
00:19:28	You didn't hear the word "homosexual."
00:19:31	You didn't hear the word "abortion."
00:19:34	You didn't hear those things.
00:19:35	Men respected women.
00:19:37	They helped them on with their coats,
00:19:40	And the man and woman
00:19:43	they married each other.
00:19:44	You know something that I think,
00:19:47	that there was just as much
00:19:52	Only now,
00:19:56	Now there's no love whatever included.
00:20:00	Then, there was your heart,
00:20:02	Greenwich Village was there,
00:20:05	and New York was around it.
00:20:07	And the rest of New York did not act
00:20:11	It was sort of a center of dissent
00:20:13	and had been for a long time
00:20:18	People from all over
00:20:21	They were regarded as bohemian.
00:20:25	The way they dressed
00:20:27	and certainly the way they thought
00:20:29	was outside the mainstream
00:20:32	And as I recollect it,
00:20:33	marriage was not important
00:20:36	I remember hearing a line
00:20:40	he was trying to lure into bed.
00:20:42	She was being very coy, and he said,
00:20:47	Hello?
00:20:58	Hello, Jack?
00:21:43	If it's illegal to hand out pamphlets
00:21:45	I'm proud to be a criminal.
00:21:46	No one is arguing with your
00:21:50	All I'm saying
00:21:52	to go to jail for birth control.
00:21:53	Oh, there's a right time
00:21:55	The Masses is governing
00:21:58	Soon you'll be indistinguishable
00:22:00	Emma, all I'm saying
00:22:03	- to the anti-war movement.
00:22:04	- No, he's right. If we get into this war...
00:22:08	- Will you let me finish my sentence?
00:22:11	Thousands of American women,
00:22:14	are dying, giving birth to anemic
00:22:18	Are their lives any less valuable
00:22:21	- I want those back Tuesday.
00:22:24	- Oh, shit.
00:22:26	Good night.
00:22:27	- You want some coffee?
00:22:30	- I'm out of coffee.
00:22:34	No, the conversation is over.
00:22:37	When you're a revolutionary,
00:22:39	Hopefully over coffee.
00:22:40	- It's late, I'll walk you home.
00:22:51	Well...
00:22:54	Yeah.
00:22:56	It's Friday night.
00:22:58	I'm so glad to see you.
00:22:59	Really, I'm so glad to see you.
00:23:04	I finished your articles.
00:23:07	The railroad piece, I think, is...
00:23:10	- It's repetitious, but...
00:23:13	I'm using repetition to make a point.
00:23:14	I don't want it to seem too polished.
00:23:16	Oh.
00:23:19	Well, I think
00:23:21	Emma, Emma, Emma.
00:23:23	I think it was Emma Goldberg.
00:23:25	I think so.
00:23:26	I never forgot Emma Goldman.
00:23:28	She inspired me to the very depths.
00:23:31	And Max Eastman was a beloved man.
00:23:34	The real radical, a free spirit.
00:23:37	He was in that same group
00:23:41	That was her name.
00:23:44	Floyd Dell was one of them.
00:23:46	He wrote novels, beautiful novels.
00:23:48	The radicals included people
00:23:52	and Bill Haywood.
00:23:54	And there were Walter Lippmann,
00:23:56	and Lincoln Steffens
00:23:59	and Edna St. Vincent Millay.
00:24:01	Alfred Stieglitz...
00:24:03	Oh, and Margaret Sanger.
00:24:04	My Lord, I picketed for her.
00:24:07	And, of course,
00:24:09	came from down there.
00:24:11	I don't think there's anybody
00:24:15	You have to be a bit of a rebel
00:24:19	And everybody in Greenwich Village
00:24:31	- What do you do, Louise?
00:24:33	Good for you.
00:24:35	- Thanks.
00:24:37	everyone on the left is the same.
00:24:47	Would you pass the bread, please?
00:24:50	- What do you do, Louise?
00:24:52	Good. Madame Schumann-Heink...
00:24:54	Jack tells me you write, Miss Bryant.
00:24:58	Everything.
00:25:01	You write about everything?
00:25:03	Everything. Yes. Everything, nothing...
00:25:07	Just...
00:25:10	I see.
00:25:14	Now, about Davis and Sloan,
00:25:17	Not yet, but they...
00:25:25	I don't think they should sit here
00:25:29	- It's just...
00:25:31	Look, what does a capitalist do?
00:25:33	Let me ask you that, Mike.
00:25:35	I mean, what does he make,
00:25:37	I don't know what he makes.
00:25:39	Well, what if they got organized?
00:25:41	I mean, all the workers.
00:25:43	and the carpenters
00:25:45	But all of them, all over the world?
00:25:46	Not in just one country.
00:25:49	What if they all got organized?
00:25:51	Don't you think they could...
00:25:53	They can make it into
00:25:54	Jack, can I tap you for $5? I'm flat.
00:25:57	Well, don't ask this pretentious
00:26:00	If you need $5, I'll give it to you.
00:26:06	Let me have $4.50, will you?
00:26:07	- What isn't fair?
00:26:09	If all the workers in the world
00:26:12	- there wouldn't be a war, would there?
00:26:14	Miss Bryant.
00:26:16	You've been nursing
00:26:18	Can I get you a glass of wine
00:26:20	No, thank you. I'm fine.
00:26:22	- Beer's fine.
00:26:25	And a very good painter, I hear.
00:26:28	I write.
00:26:39	Read Jung!
00:26:41	"Read Freud, read Jung."
00:26:44	My God, you can't interpret Freud
00:26:47	You know you got a taxi waiting?
00:26:49	Zosima represents
00:26:51	I tell you you're wrong.
00:26:52	- And Jung is a mystic...
00:26:57	- How long are they going to stay?
00:27:01	- I'll only be gone for a day.
00:27:04	Hey, why don't you come
00:27:06	Really? What am I supposed
00:27:08	What as?
00:27:09	Jack, you know, you got a taxi waiting.
00:27:13	Taxi's waiting, Jack.
00:27:15	See you tomorrow.
00:27:24	We've been trying for two years.
00:27:27	Capitalists can take this country into
00:27:30	The only impact you can make
00:27:33	Of course, but...
00:27:34	But don't you think, Emma,
00:27:37	that if Debs gets a lot of votes,
00:27:40	No, I don't. I think voting is the opium
00:27:43	Every four years, you deaden the pain.
00:27:44	Yeah, but...
00:27:48	Don't you think...
00:27:49	I just made it very clear
00:27:52	Come on, E.G.
00:27:54	- Louise has a point. She says...
00:27:57	Why does my status change
00:28:00	Bernie, could I have the red wine?
00:28:03	She's just... She's upset with me.
00:28:06	It's got nothing to do with you.
00:28:08	Thank you. It's a great comfort.
00:28:12	The house is completely filled
00:28:14	They use it as if it was
00:28:16	- I can't get any work done.
00:28:18	- How am I supposed to throw them out?
00:28:20	Tell them to leave.
00:28:21	I'm not going to
00:28:23	- Just throw them out.
00:28:24	Jack, is that you?
00:28:27	- Hello, Horace. How are you?
00:28:31	- You know Louise Bryant?
00:28:34	- Very nice to see you.
00:28:36	Great pleasure.
00:28:37	- Hi, Max. How are you?
00:28:39	- And Floyd, good to see you.
00:28:41	Still getting arrested, Jack?
00:28:43	I try.
00:28:47	How about you, Miss Bryant?
00:28:48	Are you trying to get arrested, too?
00:28:50	No, not really.
00:28:53	- What do you do, Miss Bryant?
00:28:57	You write? Now, may I ask,
00:29:03	It's impossible to describe.
00:29:05	It's impossible to describe?
00:29:07	She just did a hell of a piece
00:29:08	on the influence of the Armory Show
00:29:10	Well, you know,
00:29:13	Why don't you give me a call
00:29:16	In fact, even better,
00:29:19	- Fine.
00:29:21	- It's a date, then.
00:29:23	That's wonderful. Fine.
00:29:24	Jack!
00:29:28	Now, you stay out
00:29:33	Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye.
00:29:38	- Jack, please don't do that.
00:29:40	He's the editor of Metropolitan.
00:29:42	- Jack, I can speak for myself.
00:29:45	- I don't want you to do that...
00:29:47	Oh. Taxi's waiting, Jack.
00:29:53	Jack...
00:29:56	I'll see you at the end
00:30:00	- Okay?
00:30:01	Maybe I will call him about Thursday.
00:30:03	Yeah, call him about Thursday.
00:30:06	- See you, boys.
00:30:08	- Bye-bye, Jack.
00:30:11	See you, Jack.
00:30:18	"The railroad's opening new frontiers,
00:30:21	"and crisscrossing it all
00:30:24	"The railroad's opening new frontiers,
00:30:26	"and in turn, these frontiers...
00:30:29	"And in turn, these frontiers..."
00:30:31	Oh, God.
00:30:35	It is repetitious.
00:30:41	We're not human beings,
00:30:43	- And how many days a week?
00:30:44	- Every day?
00:30:46	"If you don't come to work on Sunday,
00:30:49	- What do you make an hour?
00:30:51	How many times have they
00:30:54	because the labor you do
00:30:56	That's right, Bill.
00:30:58	Well, the IWW's not gonna
00:31:00	- because you're unskilled.
00:31:02	Or skilled. Or black or white or yellow.
00:31:06	Seven days a week.
00:31:07	- What do you make an hour?
00:31:09	One big union.
00:31:11	- All workers belong...
00:31:15	I'm looking for a lathe worker
00:31:18	He had an industrial accident. He got
00:31:21	Yeah, sure, Harvard.
00:31:23	Is that what they wanna read about
00:31:25	industrial accidents?
00:31:29	And for that, we need power.
00:31:32	And there's only one way to get power.
00:31:34	Organize!
00:31:36	All the workers together!
00:31:38	One big union!
00:31:40	And the war the IWW
00:31:45	Not a war in Europe!
00:31:47	War against the capitalists!
00:31:49	You'll never get anything or anywhere,
00:31:51	until the whole working class
00:31:56	All right, gentlemen,
00:31:58	you've got 20 seconds
00:32:08	May I ask on what authority?
00:32:10	On my authority.
00:32:12	This is an illegal assembly.
00:32:14	Excuse me, Officer. These men
00:32:16	That's all they're doing.
00:32:18	We know what the hell they doing.
00:32:19	- What the hell you doing?
00:32:21	You.
00:32:23	- I write.
00:32:25	You wrong.
00:32:30	Get him out of here!
00:32:37	Here they are.
00:32:38	The folio. The oeuvre.
00:32:43	Well...
00:32:45	How is Jack?
00:32:46	I do hope he's being more careful
00:32:50	I'd hate to see him not able
00:32:52	Oh, I'm sure he'll do fine.
00:32:55	Did you tell him
00:32:59	No, I will. He's out of town.
00:33:01	Mr. Whigham, excuse me, but
00:33:04	Oh, this is the Armory...
00:33:06	- Yes.
00:33:16	Well...
00:33:18	I really ought to spend
00:33:21	Oh, yes, of course.
00:33:22	What about dinner?
00:33:25	- Dinner?
00:33:28	- Why would he mind?
00:33:31	but Jack's rather...
00:33:34	He's rather an odd duck, isn't he?
00:33:36	And I've never really known how...
00:33:37	Mr. Whigham, are you saying you need
00:33:38	Jack's permission
00:33:44	Don't get so upset about it.
00:33:45	For Christ's sake,
00:33:47	Don't rewrite what I write, Pete.
00:33:48	What the hell's the matter
00:33:50	The IWW's a bunch of Reds.
00:33:53	Come on.
00:33:54	We got Reds in the IWW,
00:33:56	We've got nothing
00:33:58	For Christ's sake,
00:34:01	Now, what the hell
00:34:03	with a lot of Red propaganda
00:34:05	It's the truth.
00:34:07	Well, who the hell's to say
00:34:09	A bunch of goddamn Reds in the IWW?
00:34:11	You're not being fair to the AF of L.
00:34:13	- Now, give me the goddamn article...
00:34:16	I'm just gonna take it
00:34:18	Well, fine. Take it to The Masses.
00:34:20	- They're a bunch of Reds.
00:34:21	- Who's gonna pay your rent?
00:34:23	You just don't rewrite what I write.
00:34:26	You stubborn son of a bitch.
00:34:46	Louise?
00:35:05	I got every one in the shop.
00:35:07	We're broke, but we've got them all.
00:35:13	Thanks.
00:35:19	- What's the matter?
00:35:21	- What is it?
00:35:24	A lot better than we thought it would.
00:35:25	- You see Whigham?
00:35:28	- How was that?
00:35:31	Did he offer you work?
00:35:33	No, but he made a big point
00:35:35	what wonderful friends
00:35:37	It was a fascinating meeting.
00:35:41	Are you angry at Whigham or me?
00:35:45	What is it?
00:35:47	It's nothing.
00:35:49	and it's Saturday.
00:35:50	Didn't I say I'd back
00:35:52	- The end of the week is Friday.
00:35:54	Saturday's not the
00:35:56	Jack, you said you'd be back Tuesday!
00:35:58	What difference does it make?
00:35:59	What do you think I've been doing?
00:36:00	Running around listening
00:36:02	How do I know whose voice
00:36:04	Obviously you like it
00:36:17	Look at me. Oh, God!
00:36:20	I'm like a wife.
00:36:23	I'm like a boring, clinging,
00:36:29	- Who'd wanna come home to me?
00:36:32	Well, I can't do this!
00:36:34	You can't do what?
00:36:37	I'm just living in your margins.
00:36:39	I don't know what I'm doing here.
00:36:41	- Well, tell me what you want.
00:36:45	I want you to know something.
00:36:46	I asked Whigham
00:36:51	- Is that what you want?
00:36:58	- What are you doing, Louise?
00:37:00	Will you tell me why you're doing this?
00:37:01	I'm not taken seriously
00:37:03	When I'm around
00:37:04	Oh, God, this is not good.
00:37:05	You mean
00:37:07	Is that what you're talking about?
00:37:08	Do you mean you're not?
00:37:10	You know what I'm saying.
00:37:12	I don't know what you're saying.
00:37:13	You're not being honest with me.
00:37:16	I am so being honest with you.
00:37:17	Maybe if you took yourself a little more
00:37:20	I told you what I thought
00:37:21	I was honest about that.
00:37:22	I think it's very nice,
00:37:25	- Thank you.
00:37:26	to be taken seriously if you're
00:37:29	I don't understand that.
00:37:31	I found myself an apartment.
00:37:33	I'm not even sure I know
00:37:35	One day you're writing
00:37:37	and you don't even finish the piece.
00:37:38	The next day you're doing a piece
00:37:40	that happened three years ago.
00:37:41	Look, why do you give me
00:37:43	If I criticize it at all,
00:37:46	And when we're out with other people,
00:37:47	if somebody doesn't ask you
00:37:49	you tell me you feel ignored.
00:37:51	But with everything
00:37:53	you decide to sit down and write a piece
00:37:55	on the influence of the goddamned
00:37:58	Are people supposed
00:38:00	Well, I don't really care!
00:38:01	- You care!
00:38:03	- You care!
00:38:05	And I'm not interested
00:38:08	- take me seriously or not!
00:38:10	That's why they don't take it seriously.
00:38:11	I found an apartment on Houston Street,
00:38:14	And I'll tell you something else,
00:38:16	I don't think we like the same people
00:38:19	- And I wanna be on my own.
00:38:21	I don't give a damn!
00:38:22	Oh! I know you don't give a damn!
00:38:24	Well, will you tell me
00:38:26	You shouldn't! Don't give a damn!
00:38:27	- I don't give a damn, either!
00:38:30	- I'm getting out of here!
00:39:20	Honey, can we just
00:39:25	Let's go somewhere
00:40:01	Provincetown was
00:40:07	And it was very, very conservative.
00:40:11	We'd take the Fall River steamer
00:40:14	We used to save fares
00:40:17	And we always got bedbugs.
00:40:19	You did whatever you pleased up there.
00:40:21	And we put on some very
00:40:25	that a commercial theater
00:40:27	Take Susan Glaspell's Trifles.
00:40:30	There's a whole play
00:40:32	without the protagonist
00:40:35	And they gave three one-act plays.
00:40:38	One of them was a play by...
00:40:40	I always thought it was by John Reed
00:40:44	But I see it's by her.
00:40:46	They were in it.
00:40:47	The play was terrible,
00:40:50	And of course, Gene O'Neill
00:40:54	but I liked his plays
00:40:57	Will you never understand?
00:40:58	Are you so stupid
00:41:01	I am offering myself to you.
00:41:03	I am kneeling before you.
00:41:05	I have promised you my body,
00:41:07	my body that men have
00:41:09	I have promised to love you,
00:41:14	Tell them not to stand behind the moon.
00:41:18	Don't stand behind the moon.
00:41:20	- Back?
00:41:22	'Cause of the moon.
00:41:23	This is the moon here.
00:41:25	- This way?
00:41:27	Take it from "I hate the sea."
00:41:29	Will you never understand?
00:41:30	Are you so stupid
00:41:32	I'm offering myself to you.
00:41:34	I'm kneeling before you.
00:41:36	I... I, who have had so many men
00:41:39	I'm offering you my body,
00:41:41	my body that men have
00:41:45	I have promised to love you.
00:41:47	You, a negro sailor.
00:41:49	Is that not humiliation enough
00:41:53	Answer me, please! Answer me.
00:41:55	Will you give me that water?
00:41:58	I have no water.
00:42:01	Old Teddy wants this war, doesn't he?
00:42:03	I wonder how long it'll take the public
00:42:06	Teddy Roosevelt has rabies.
00:42:08	Jack, your second speech is out.
00:42:10	And the ironic part of it is
00:42:13	Sure, they do.
00:42:16	You can't touch the bunny suit.
00:42:18	Did you read the piece
00:42:19	If the left doesn't defend Wilson,
00:42:22	Think we ought to go to St. Louis?
00:42:23	I am not going to St. Louis
00:42:25	- I think we should.
00:42:27	I don't know,
00:42:29	in a war in a few months,
00:42:31	Wilson's kept us out so far.
00:42:33	Reed thought that he was a good poet.
00:42:35	He was a terrible poet.
00:42:37	He thought that he could write
00:42:39	Short stories.
00:42:41	Of course, he was a poet.
00:42:43	And not a great poet,
00:42:47	but some of it was very fine.
00:42:49	But, as a journalist,
00:42:54	- Look. Pull this up.
00:42:56	See? That's good.
00:42:58	Jack, your ride's here.
00:43:00	- Excuse me. I'll wait outside.
00:43:05	- Do you see what I mean? If one...
00:43:12	Yeah, I got to run.
00:43:17	Bye, honey.
00:43:26	Jack Reed wanted to stir up trouble,
00:43:28	he wanted to stir up trouble
00:43:30	And he also wanted
00:43:34	to the necessity of some
00:43:38	In other words, I am accusing him
00:43:43	or of being a fraidy-cat,
00:43:47	not wanting to face things
00:43:53	Dear Louise, St. Louis is very hot
00:43:57	all having a wonderful time
00:44:00	in anticipation of Wilson's nomination.
00:44:02	I'd like to think it's because
00:44:03	he doesn't want the United States
00:44:05	but who knows
00:44:07	By the way, I've decided to throw out
00:44:10	The rhyming scheme was wrong.
00:44:11	Maybe when I get back
00:44:14	Politics sure plays hell
00:44:16	I keep thinking I see you.
00:44:19	I miss you, honey.
00:45:06	- Hello.
00:45:18	Would you like a glass?
00:45:28	Don't try and decide.
00:45:31	I'll get you one.
00:45:37	I like your play.
00:45:39	I only hope I can do the part justice.
00:45:42	I think your dialogue is beautiful.
00:45:45	Then why the hell
00:45:47	instead of wandering all over the stage?
00:45:50	You're supposed to be looking
00:45:52	Would you rather I didn't smoke
00:45:53	I'd rather you went up in flames
00:45:56	in the middle
00:45:58	I'm sorry. You're absolutely right.
00:45:59	It makes me wanna cancel
00:46:01	I won't do it again.
00:46:14	You keep the glass. I'll take the bottle.
00:46:17	Are you leaving?
00:46:19	Give me your glass.
00:46:32	Are you nervous?
00:46:34	- Or is that a tremor?
00:46:37	Why should I be?
00:46:52	- What are they?
00:46:58	The things that you have that are yours.
00:47:02	What are they?
00:47:05	My work, for one.
00:47:08	He's a real mean
00:47:11	What do you mean?
00:47:13	Leaving you alone with your work.
00:47:16	- You think I mind?
00:47:20	It's the one thing
00:47:22	- You may feel that way, I don't.
00:47:25	Don't let those village radicals keep you
00:47:29	What do you think I should be?
00:47:32	The center of attention.
00:47:35	Well, you must have been
00:47:38	Let's just say possessive.
00:47:40	Possessive? That's something else.
00:47:43	It's a waste of time.
00:47:45	I'm not.
00:47:47	Neither is Jack, for that matter.
00:47:50	Oh, yes. I know.
00:47:53	He has the freedom to do the things
00:47:56	And I think anyone who's afraid
00:47:58	is really only afraid
00:48:02	Are you making this up
00:48:06	I'd like you to go.
00:48:10	Why?
00:48:11	Because I don't want to be patronized.
00:48:13	I'm sorry if you don't believe
00:48:15	and free love and respect.
00:48:16	Don't give me a lot of parlor socialism
00:48:21	If you were mine, I wouldn't share you
00:48:26	It'd be just you and me.
00:48:32	You know,
00:48:34	than being left alone with your work.
00:48:49	- I hope I haven't upset you.
00:48:53	But you seem to be looking
00:48:56	than what I had in mind.
00:48:58	- Than what you had in mind?
00:49:01	You see, Jack and I
00:49:05	of living with our beliefs.
00:49:08	But I think someone as romantic as you
00:49:12	And I don't want that to happen.
00:49:39	You can't come and play in my yard
00:49:42	I don't love you anymore
00:49:46	You'll be sorry when you see me
00:49:49	Sliding down my cellar door
00:49:53	You can't holler down my rain barrel
00:49:56	You can't climb my apple tree
00:50:01	I don't want to play in your yard
00:50:05	If you can't be good to me
00:50:41	I don't want to play in your yard
00:50:44	I don't like you anymore
00:50:47	You'll be sorry when you see me
00:50:50	Sliding down our cellar door
00:50:54	You can't holler down our rain barrel
00:50:57	You can't climb our apple tree
00:51:01	I don't want to play in your yard
00:51:04	If you won't be good to me
00:51:10	Wonderful!
00:51:29	Floyd, I've been
00:51:53	Tap your sensuality.
00:52:11	- Wonderful close.
00:52:13	Very good. Excellent.
00:52:17	- Floyd, that's new for you, isn't it?
00:52:20	- Okay. Who's next?
00:52:21	two-thirds of my new play.
00:52:23	You said it was a work
00:52:25	Oh, did I? How quickly we forget.
00:52:45	- Well!
00:52:48	News from the front.
00:52:49	- Hello, Jack.
00:52:50	- Hi, Jack.
00:52:54	Welcome back.
00:52:56	- Who's next?
00:52:58	Let's have a dance out of Gene.
00:53:00	Jack, you're just in time
00:53:04	Okay. Do something Irish.
00:53:06	Yeah. Let's have it, Gene.
00:53:08	- Yeah. Go ahead Gene.
00:53:10	Hutch says it's wonderful.
00:53:12	Tell us about the convention, Jack.
00:53:14	Never mind the speech.
00:53:19	- What about Wilson?
00:53:24	Oh, I don't think there's any reason to
00:53:27	other than support the interest of the
00:53:31	But as long as he says he's against it,
00:53:35	Because he'll have to make good on
00:53:38	for at least a few months
00:53:40	to strengthen the anti-war coalition.
00:53:42	But there's a lot more pro-war feeling in
00:54:01	You want another drink, Gene?
00:54:08	I guess not.
00:54:24	- Good night.
00:54:28	Good night.
00:54:40	Would you like
00:54:42	No, thanks.
00:54:44	Well, I'll have some, anyway.
00:54:59	- What's this?
00:55:02	May I read it?
00:55:08	I didn't finish it.
00:55:27	Finish it.
00:55:34	Finish it?
00:55:39	Would that make you happy?
00:55:46	I'm happy.
00:55:58	- Jack.
00:56:01	Jack.
00:56:05	There's something
00:56:07	- You don't have to tell me anything.
00:56:11	No.
00:56:22	You want to get married?
00:56:55	Okay. There we go. I'll see...
00:57:01	- Oh, careful there. Careful.
00:57:05	Two? No, there should be three.
00:57:13	Oh, excuse me. I'm sorry.
00:57:15	It's not that
00:57:17	It's just that I'm very concerned
00:57:22	- Here. No. No.
00:57:47	Where's the whiskey?
00:57:50	- Lady, where do you want this?
00:57:53	That'll be fine. Thank you.
00:57:57	Yeah.
00:58:00	- Anything to drink in there?
00:58:02	Oh, here. Thanks.
00:58:05	- Thank you. Good.
00:58:15	Oh. Well. Let's see now. Here we are.
00:58:23	- Gene?
00:58:26	Oh. Let's see.
00:58:29	Well, I guess I should have
00:58:34	No. No, that isn't the right one.
00:58:37	Try this one.
00:58:39	Well, what are you working on, Gene?
00:58:42	At the moment, Scotch.
00:58:44	I found a cup. Will a cup be all right?
00:58:47	- I'd prefer a glass.
00:58:52	You know,
00:58:56	That's not like you, not that I have
00:59:01	Success at last. See, a... Here we go.
00:59:15	Your skill as a bartender
00:59:18	- Are you nervous?
00:59:21	Why should I be nervous? My God,
00:59:38	- What is it?
00:59:43	And that I won't be possessive
00:59:46	And you can sleep with whoever
00:59:51	I'll do anything that you say.
00:59:56	So you can do whatever you want to,
01:00:00	except not see me.
01:00:04	Or smoke during the monologue.
01:00:11	Gene, Jack and I,
01:00:14	because we were too embarrassed.
01:00:18	But
01:00:21	we're married.
01:00:23	Jack and I got married.
01:00:28	- That is embarrassing.
01:00:32	We felt very silly, but we wanted to do it.
01:00:34	And it's gonna be good.
01:00:37	We're gonna spend
01:00:39	That's why we took a lease
01:00:40	so we wouldn't have to go back
01:00:42	Does this mean that we have to cheat?
01:00:44	Or is this a free
01:00:46	- Gene.
01:00:48	and you used me
01:00:51	No, I didn't.
01:00:53	I just want us to be friends, Gene.
01:00:56	Oh, how genteel. That would be a
01:00:58	"There's Louise with Jack and Gene.
01:01:01	"He's crazy about her,
01:01:04	"Poor Jack. Poor Gene.
01:01:14	What a heartbreaker you are, Louise.
01:01:18	I'm sorry. I'm...
01:01:22	Where is he?
01:01:26	Washington.
01:01:27	Well, Mrs. Reed,
01:01:30	I'll do whatever you say.
01:01:36	Wish us well?
01:01:50	I wish you well.
01:01:53	You and Jack.
01:02:33	Jack!
01:02:36	Oh, God.
01:02:40	I'm not sure whether she had an affair
01:02:43	with Eugene O'Neill or not
01:02:46	And nobody seemed to know. Or...
01:02:49	It was nobody's business, anyway, so...
01:02:53	I don't know what that situation was.
01:02:55	The report was that
01:02:59	had a ménage à trois.
01:03:04	Jack, what... What is...
01:03:23	Oh, God! I swear...
01:03:25	...that we love America!
01:03:28	We love her mountains, her forests...
01:03:31	There were mutinies
01:03:34	there were mutinies
01:03:37	And then, in 1917, the troops,
01:03:41	poorly equipped, poorly clothed,
01:03:45	to talk it out with the czar.
01:03:46	And when they got through,
01:03:48	Revolution in Russia.
01:03:50	This was the spring of 1917.
01:03:54	And I became so excited
01:03:56	that I zigzag-jumped the benches
01:04:00	as we walked out of the park.
01:04:03	Oh, I was so happy as a young boy.
01:04:05	Revolution, the people take over,
01:04:09	down with the czar!
01:04:12	Naturally, I was happy.
01:04:56	Well, haven't you made the politics
01:05:00	- What do you mean "nebulous"?
01:05:02	- How can you say they're unclear?
01:05:05	Why am I necessarily attempting
01:05:06	to define the politics
01:05:08	It isn't what I said.
01:05:14	Oh, it's just an opinion.
01:05:19	You know,
01:05:22	I could take them on the train with me.
01:05:25	Wilson, of course,
01:05:27	"Keep us out of war" in 1916.
01:05:30	But in 1917, Wilson reversed himself
01:05:34	and declared war against Germany.
01:05:38	The mission at that time was to make
01:05:42	Reed said,
01:05:45	"This is a war for democracy?
01:05:50	If men really disapproved of war, dear,
01:05:56	Men like wars. Always have.
01:06:00	So they all went and got little uniforms,
01:06:04	- My country is at war!
01:06:06	And so today, I, too, am at war!
01:06:12	My name is Jack Reed,
01:06:15	This is not my war, and I'm not gonna
01:06:19	All right. All right.
01:06:20	All right, folks.
01:06:22	There was a lot of anti-war feeling,
01:06:24	We had no one against the war.
01:06:28	Well, I'm not talking about saying it
01:06:33	How do we move them?
01:06:35	Right. How do we organize them?
01:06:38	The Socialist Party...
01:06:43	The Socialist Party of America
01:06:46	You think the Socialist Party
01:06:48	You boys are Reds, aren't you?
01:06:50	The Socialist Party is useless.
01:06:54	Now, that's the truth. Jack?
01:06:56	The United States is at war.
01:06:58	Your friends are talking to you.
01:07:00	If the workers of the world act together,
01:07:03	This one even pisses red.
01:07:07	You ran around saving the world
01:07:09	Very intelligent.
01:07:11	And you're gonna keep running around
01:07:13	until you wind up
01:07:15	And then,
01:07:16	Harry, how much is the government
01:07:19	- Very funny. Keep laughing.
01:07:20	That hurt, didn't it?
01:07:24	Listen, I'm gonna tell you something.
01:07:26	You're not gonna be able to keep doing
01:07:29	This is a serious condition.
01:07:31	Harry, look, I want to know if...
01:07:35	Could this thing interfere
01:07:38	- Yes. You cannot have sex if you die.
01:07:43	Are you thinking about having children?
01:07:46	Not at the moment,
01:07:51	Is Louise talking about it?
01:07:54	No.
01:07:56	Well, just because
01:07:58	it doesn't mean
01:07:59	Don't worry. You don't make babies
01:08:02	Look, I'm gonna send you home
01:08:04	Tell her to keep you there,
01:08:06	give you lots of liquids.
01:08:08	Look, Louise doesn't know about
01:08:12	- Fine.
01:08:13	- I don't want it sent to the house.
01:08:20	Not at the moment.
01:08:21	Then why the hell
01:08:24	It is my belief that socialism and peace
01:08:28	And I reiterate that the Socialist Party
01:08:32	its resolution to oppose
01:08:35	Mr. Chairman, Louis Fraina,
01:08:37	The chair recognizes
01:08:40	And I still want to know
01:08:41	what specific action
01:08:44	Your resolution is all very nice,
01:08:46	but will it stop even one boy from
01:08:49	...stigmatized as unpatriotic.
01:08:51	The task that confronts us is difficult.
01:08:54	Let us hope
01:08:55	What's that supposed to mean?
01:08:57	Stupid!
01:08:58	I'd like to know if the Socialist Party
01:09:02	- That's what I'd like to know.
01:09:05	I am not a delegate, Mr. Chairman.
01:09:08	I write for the magazine The Masses,
01:09:09	and I want to know if the Socialist Party
01:09:12	I'm sorry, Mr. Reed.
01:09:15	Now, this floor is reserved
01:09:18	Mr. Chairman,
01:09:20	- to take a position on the draft or not?
01:09:21	I'm sorry, Mr. Reed.
01:09:24	Let him speak, will you?
01:09:25	Mr. Reed,
01:09:28	I'm just trying to be a journalist.
01:09:30	So is Trotsky.
01:09:33	Why don't you join the Socialist Party?
01:09:37	Big things are happening in Russia.
01:09:39	As appalling as it may seem
01:09:43	I can understand the necessity
01:09:45	during times of war.
01:09:47	The task that confronts us is a giant!
01:09:50	In that,
01:10:07	- We have to give this dog a name.
01:10:11	What's the matter with her name?
01:10:14	- I can't find anything in this house.
01:10:17	I suppose if she were a baby,
01:10:19	Not really.
01:10:21	No. No. Bad.
01:10:23	See, now this is why
01:10:24	You put things anywhere.
01:10:26	Dog! Dog!
01:10:27	She's still not housebroken.
01:10:29	You got to grab her
01:10:32	and then take her outside. That's right.
01:10:34	And then when she goes,
01:10:37	All right. Now, stay, Dog.
01:10:39	Are we having garlic for dinner, honey?
01:10:41	No, no, no.
01:10:50	Why? Why, do you think
01:10:54	I thought I'd put a little in the sauce.
01:10:57	Garlic doesn't bother me.
01:11:11	- That's from Gene.
01:11:15	I didn't realize what it was.
01:11:24	He gave it to me in October.
01:11:27	- You don't have to explain.
01:11:29	- I'm just telling you it's over.
01:11:32	I don't expect you to tell me
01:11:34	What about if you tell me something,
01:11:36	- Jack, I haven't seen him.
01:11:38	Don't tell me that Gene gave you
01:11:41	but you put it in a book
01:11:43	I don't care
01:11:44	- I just care about dishonesty.
01:11:46	You don't care
01:11:48	you just care about dishonesty?
01:11:50	You care. You care so much,
01:11:52	- You won't even mention...
01:11:54	You want to be honest about it?
01:11:55	If I didn't wanna be honest about it,
01:11:56	do you think I'd be silly enough
01:11:58	lying around in the house
01:12:00	Why not Whitman?
01:12:02	I'm sure Gene would feel right at home
01:12:04	Oh, no. You don't care.
01:12:06	Why the hell should I care that
01:12:08	Do you think I haven't?
01:12:09	I don't think we have to report
01:12:11	every time we go to bed with somebody.
01:12:14	It doesn't mean that I love you any less.
01:12:15	Do you love me any less
01:12:22	What difference does it make?
01:12:24	I just don't think we should lie about it.
01:12:27	- Who?
01:12:30	- Who was it?
01:12:32	Who was it?
01:12:34	What do you want, a list?
01:12:48	Louise.
01:12:51	Louise.
01:12:58	- What are you doing?
01:13:01	- I wanna know where you're going.
01:13:03	- Well, I wanna talk about it.
01:13:06	What? What did I say now
01:13:09	Please forward my mail
01:13:10	Wheeler Bell Syndicate.
01:13:11	I'll have someone pick up
01:13:14	Didn't we say that people had to give
01:13:16	- if they were gonna live together?
01:13:18	I thought
01:13:20	- I thought you loved me!
01:13:22	You love yourself! Me, you fuck!
01:13:24	When you're not fucking other people,
01:13:27	Freedom? You mean I should just be
01:13:32	Is that what fucking Gene means?
01:13:35	I'm not packing my bag.
01:13:38	- Get out of my...
01:13:40	- Get out of my...
01:13:44	Get away! Get out of my way.
01:14:11	- How many were there?
01:14:16	You don't know the first thing about
01:14:27	Go ahead. I know where you're going.
01:14:28	I thought you needed someone
01:14:31	As long as you get your two shots of
01:14:33	You don't need a thing.
01:14:42	You go to hell! Both of you!
01:15:11	It could possibly have been
01:15:16	to say that you had an affair
01:15:20	I haven't been spared
01:15:22	the legends about men that are
01:15:27	because I was known by name.
01:15:30	Affairs which never occurred at all.
01:15:33	It's very difficult to tell, you know.
01:15:36	Do you know there is nothing
01:15:39	than when you get a letter
01:15:42	"That marvelous week
01:15:44	- Yeah.
01:15:48	- Yes.
01:15:53	One day, I was out walking
01:15:59	And she was quite something.
01:16:03	And I said to her,
01:16:05	"What is all this ado about Louise?
01:16:09	"What do you think of her, Aunt Belle?"
01:16:12	She said,
01:16:13	"Well, she had something
01:16:20	That's my story.
01:16:22	- How you feeling?
01:16:24	- Here you are.
01:16:26	Thanks.
01:16:28	Well, we got it out just in time.
01:16:30	But since God only knows what
01:16:33	you better treat it well.
01:16:35	That means, tell that goddamn Eastman
01:16:38	If you get an infection now, that's it!
01:16:41	"Dear Jack,
01:16:43	"I talked to a specialist here in Paris.
01:16:45	"And he said you can lead
01:16:47	"I hope you're not neglecting
01:16:49	"Please don't spend your energy
01:16:50	"getting caught up in things
01:16:52	"Dear Jack, I'm enclosing a piece
01:16:53	"on a volunteer ambulance driver
01:16:55	"from the New York City
01:16:56	"Also, please don't keep asking me
01:16:59	"It just makes me think you have no..."
01:17:00	"Dear Jack, yes,
01:17:03	"Life here is so hectic and exhilarating
01:17:05	"Dear Jack, don't worry, I'm well.
01:17:07	"My only problem is keeping up with

01:17:13	"Please don't mention this to anyone.
01:17:14	"I promised Wheeler I wouldn't

01:17:19	"and there's no reason to worry about
01:17:21	Bolsheviks, Sandy. The Bolsheviks!
01:17:23	Jesus Christ,
01:17:25	you can just bend right over
01:17:28	Because they'll pull Russia
01:17:30	Right off the Eastern Front.
01:17:33	Pete, the Bolsheviks are small potatoes.
01:17:35	Russia isn't gonna get out of the war.
01:17:36	You want to walk down
01:17:39	and see 500,000 Krauts
01:17:42	You better hope that the Bolsheviks
01:17:45	Now, let's have another drink. Waiter!
01:17:48	Waiter, another round here.
01:17:50	Hey! Oh, God. It's Red Emma, Jr!
01:17:53	Hey, come over here!
01:17:54	Speak up, Pete, speak up.
01:17:57	- How are you, Jack?
01:17:59	God. You look 20 pounds lighter
01:18:02	- Oh, yeah?
01:18:04	Yeah, but twice as often. Sarsaparilla.
01:18:06	Jack, can the Bolsheviks
01:18:09	Okay. Why don't you ask
01:18:12	Goddamn it, Jack. What the hell
01:18:16	Shit, why don't you bury the hatchet
01:18:19	Get back into print so we can all read
01:18:23	- I'll drink to that.
01:18:26	Well, that's right, too.
01:18:29	Jesus Christ. It's good to see you.
01:18:33	Not so good.
01:18:35	- She's good.
01:18:37	that John Wheeler wouldn't know
01:18:41	I'll tell you.
01:18:43	What the hell are you doing?
01:18:45	You realize that?
01:18:47	They think you're some kind
01:18:49	I love it! Goddamn, I love it!
01:18:51	Give them hell, Jack. Give them hell.
01:18:53	- Is that a sarsaparilla with ice?
01:18:55	You bet your sweet patoosie,
01:18:58	Why wouldn't John Wheeler
01:19:01	John Wheeler's a dumbbell, that's why.
01:19:04	No, he's all right.
01:19:05	I just hate to see Louise get hurt.
01:19:09	What are you talking about?
01:19:13	Jesus Christ.
01:19:16	Don't tell her that I told you. All right?
01:19:19	Told me what?
01:19:21	Well, Ben Parsons told me
01:19:24	because she hadn't turned anything in
01:19:28	other than some story about a cop
01:19:30	that went over there to drive
01:19:35	- He let her go?
01:19:41	- When did you hear that?
01:19:44	No, it was a month.
01:19:48	Oh, look, Jack,
01:19:51	Tell her she shouldn't feel ashamed
01:19:53	- I'm gonna see you later, huh?
01:19:55	Hell, we've all been fired.
01:19:58	Hell, I'll drink to it.
01:19:59	Imagine, 65 million
01:20:03	go to war. Right?
01:20:05	10 million die.
01:20:07	10 million become orphans.
01:20:09	20 million become maimed, crippled,
01:20:15	You had catastrophe in Europe.
01:20:18	You had a holocaust in Europe.
01:20:21	You had a desire for change.
01:20:24	Who can stop them
01:20:25	when there was
01:20:29	Who could stop them?
01:20:41	You know, I think I'm gonna have to get
01:20:47	- What are you...
01:20:52	You look fine. Are you all right now?
01:20:54	Oh, God, yes.
01:20:57	The second one's just for show.
01:21:01	Sorry, this isn't a very good time.
01:21:08	They're moving me
01:21:11	So, I'm just not going to be able to
01:21:14	Could we just go out here a second?
01:21:17	- Look, I'm on my way to Russia.
01:21:20	Very funny.
01:21:22	I know you're doing work here
01:21:23	'cause I read the ambulance piece
01:21:25	- Thank you.
01:21:27	and I know how important that is to you.
01:21:28	But you got to have enough sense
01:21:30	if you're trying to build up
01:21:32	to be in the right place at the right time.
01:21:33	- I appreciate your advice.
01:21:36	- Thank you. I'll remember that.
01:21:39	They're in their third
01:21:41	You know what that means? It means
01:21:44	The workers are deserting the factories,
01:21:48	The exiles are all coming back.
01:21:52	All of them are going back,
01:21:54	it might be the real thing.
01:21:55	And if they have
01:21:57	they'd have one in Germany,
01:22:00	- it could happen all over the world.
01:22:02	Louise, that'd be the end of the war.
01:22:04	You don't have to tell me
01:22:06	- I read the papers.
01:22:08	As a colleague,
01:22:10	Come with me as a colleague.
01:22:12	Oh, yeah? Well, that's what you said
01:22:14	- I was right about New York.
01:22:16	And I happen to think my work is...
01:22:17	It is important. But it's not important as
01:22:20	I wanna work together. As partners.
01:22:22	I don't want a partner. And if
01:22:25	- I wouldn't need you to take me.
01:22:27	Russia is not the safest place
01:22:30	You may be a hell of a journalist.
01:22:37	Louise, we'd better hurry along.
01:22:42	So, moving you out of here, huh?
01:22:44	Yes. I've been promised an interview
01:22:46	Well, I've got to run along myself.
01:22:50	- Sorry I don't have any time.
01:22:52	I just...
01:22:55	You've wasted your money, Jack.
01:22:57	Change the date. Go by yourself.
01:23:01	Keep up the good work.
01:23:04	Jack.
01:23:07	Good luck.
01:23:09	Yeah, you, too.
01:23:16	I got a taxi waiting.
01:23:44	Jack! Jack Reed!
01:23:47	- Joe, Joe Volski.
01:23:49	Oh, fine, fine.
01:23:52	- Yes. Yeah.
01:23:54	Great things are happening.
01:24:00	- I think I am.
01:24:23	We met in Chicago.
01:24:26	Boy, oh, boy. Were you a speaker!
01:24:30	You don't remember me, eh?
01:24:34	Well, it's not that.
01:24:37	- Maybe I just... Maybe it's the hat.
01:24:40	Yeah. Maybe I just don't recognize you
01:24:43	Oh, then I'm a revolutionary
01:24:47	Well, comes the revolution,
01:24:50	- I see you're studying Russian.
01:24:53	Know what?
01:24:57	- What?
01:24:58	ask me anything you want in Russian.
01:25:01	Thank you. I'll keep that in mind.
01:25:04	Let's see...
01:25:05	Excuse me.
01:25:08	I'd be a goddamned fool not to take you
01:25:11	I want to sign my own name
01:25:13	and I don't want to use a double byline.
01:25:15	I want to be responsible
01:25:18	I want to be referred to as Miss Bryant,
01:25:20	and I want to keep an account
01:25:22	so that I can pay you back.
01:25:24	Now, I assume you know that
01:25:26	so just don't confuse the issue
01:25:29	That's it.
01:25:31	- Fine.
01:25:33	You like salami?
01:25:38	He says,
01:25:40	"I forgot my teeth on the table."
01:25:42	He says, "Hell with your teeth!
01:25:44	"What do you think,
01:26:01	After the revolution,
01:26:03	Thank you very much.
01:26:07	By the way, did you hear this one?
01:26:28	Lenin asks,
01:26:31	I says, "I want to remember
01:26:42	This is a hard word,
01:26:45	Okay.
01:26:49	"Are you one of the family?"
01:26:59	There's a foreman of a logging camp,
01:27:02	You know, and he goes down
01:27:04	and he gets to a little man in the back
01:27:05	and he says, "Who the hell are you?
01:27:07	"Don't you know that I need men who
01:27:10	"Where the hell
01:27:12	And the little man says,
01:27:14	And the foreman says,
01:27:16	And the little man says,
01:27:22	A woman knocks at the door
01:27:25	I didn't tell you that?
01:27:26	She says, "My husband just died.
01:27:31	He says,
01:27:34	She says, "The pants, I wear."
01:27:44	The Russian border.
01:27:52	The Russian border.
01:28:19	He's already fighting for three months.
01:28:21	Now he joined the Bolsheviks
01:28:29	I don't think he's afraid.
01:28:33	And the Bolsheviks will stop the war.
01:28:38	He's 14 years old.
01:29:12	The Communists obviously wanted
01:29:16	Because the country was completely
01:29:19	There was treason
01:29:22	There was everything under the sun.
01:29:24	But certainly...
01:29:27	of conducting a war.
01:29:29	Kerensky was anxious to conduct it,
01:29:32	produce some battalions of women
01:29:41	Jack Reed!
01:29:44	Alex, what the hell are you doing here?
01:29:46	- You have someone to meet you?
01:29:48	Then what luck I am here!
01:29:51	- Lois?
01:29:52	Alex Gomberg.
01:29:53	- Looking for accommodation?
01:29:56	More good luck.
01:29:59	You have transportation?
01:30:03	A lot of people had an idea
01:30:06	I could not blame them
01:30:09	but I wasn't.
01:30:11	The one person
01:30:14	- was Beatrice Webb.
01:30:16	She didn't know a thing.
01:30:17	Do not be misled by the quiet
01:30:20	Underneath is great tension.
01:30:23	Alex, how much time
01:30:25	Any day now, the Bolsheviks will strike.
01:30:33	Fantastic, isn't it?
01:30:34	A quiet street,
01:30:39	Give him four rubles.
01:30:44	Jack, Lois. Lucky for you, I am here.
01:30:48	Yeah. Thanks. Thanks again.
01:30:55	Only one bed? That's a double.
01:30:58	Single. That's a single!
01:31:01	This is good for me. I can just...
01:31:05	Good.
01:31:12	I don't mind this at all.
01:31:26	He's calling for an insurrection,
01:31:28	Day and night. Day and night.
01:31:30	"Another insurrection will ruin Russia."
01:31:32	"Another insurrection will save Russia."
01:31:33	"The war is ruining Russia."
01:31:35	"Without England or France,
01:31:39	"The Bolsheviks are ruining Russia."
01:31:41	Lois, lucky for you, I am here.
01:31:43	Louise.
01:31:45	- This is the line for bread.
01:31:47	There's another line for boots.
01:31:50	And there is still another line for cards
01:31:52	on which they'll get the boots
01:31:55	Did we have to get rid of the czar
01:32:00	- What does that mean?
01:32:04	Vosstanie means "Insurrection,"
01:32:08	and Bolsheviki means Bolshevik.
01:32:10	So I think it calls for an insurrection
01:32:13	against the Kerensky government
01:32:15	- What's a kornilovtsy?
01:32:18	Look, if they buy this,
01:32:23	they're gonna cut you down
01:32:25	- That starts out like you got 5,000.
01:32:30	I'd lose this. I'd lose this.
01:32:34	But what's your lead?
01:32:38	Oh, I know what you think.
01:32:40	Well, I just don't know if you're gonna
01:32:43	with that for a lead. You know?
01:32:48	You're right.
01:32:51	And the strongman line
01:32:57	You've been right
01:33:02	The Bolsheviks will take Russia
01:33:08	- Good night.
01:33:11	"In the streets the talk
01:33:13	"Neither of which
01:33:15	"Everybody knows that
01:33:16	"Everybody knows that
01:33:17	"but nobody knows just what."
01:33:20	Yes?
01:33:21	I'm sorry, I don't speak Russian.
01:33:23	"Petrograd does not sleep.
01:33:25	"At night, the arguments grow louder
01:33:27	"Nobody is satisfied with Kerensky.
01:33:29	"The far right wants a strongman,
01:33:32	"Everyone waits to see
01:33:34	"It is not easy to write fairly about
01:33:37	"He is absorbed, cold,
01:33:39	- You're editorializing here.
01:33:42	- At the end.
01:33:47	What I don't understand is...
01:33:50	Why did you take out the piece
01:33:53	- It is good, isn't it?
01:33:54	Put it back in for me.
01:34:02	Mr. Zinoviev, do you still feel
01:34:05	for a Bolshevik insurrection?
01:34:07	"I interviewed Zinoviev at Smolny.
01:34:09	"He'd been in hiding with Lenin."
01:34:10	...had another whole decade,
01:34:13	"His style is still that of a man in hiding.
01:34:15	"We hear Trotsky speak at Smolny.
01:34:17	"If Lenin represents thought,
01:34:20	"He is essentially an agitator."
01:34:21	"The meeting hall at Smolny
01:34:22	"someone in the platform
01:34:25	"and everybody, including the smokers
01:34:27	"'Don't smoke, comrades! '
01:34:29	"At the point Trotsky said,
01:34:31	"'but if the Kerensky government
01:34:33	"'we shall answer blow by blow,'
01:34:34	"the audience broke into wild cheers."
01:34:36	"Lenin is a strange popular leader,
01:34:40	"Colorless, humorless,
01:34:43	"he seems to have
01:34:46	"or his gift for phrasemaking,
01:34:50	Kerensky is some socialist, huh?
01:34:54	"The Winter Palace of the czar, where
01:34:57	- "is vast and magnificent..."
01:34:59	"There's no sign here
01:35:01	"that convulse Moscow and Odessa.
01:35:03	"No evidence that
01:35:05	"that the army is starving
01:35:08	"Kerensky is full of old-world manners
01:35:11	"'Provisional government will last,'
01:35:14	"'in spite of the Bolsheviks.'"
01:35:15	"He seemed bitter, defensive."
01:35:18	900,000 men deserted
01:35:21	That's 14% of the Russian army. I...
01:35:26	I'm sort of braising the cabbage.
01:35:30	You know that house
01:35:33	Evidently, the banker's daughter
01:35:37	'cause some woman streetcar
01:35:40	So after dinner, they all voted
01:35:42	they preferred the Germans
01:35:45	Anyway, the Social Revolutionaries
01:35:48	to please not to mention their visit,
01:35:50	because they were already considered
01:35:52	And you know,
01:35:54	you couldn't even see a year ago,
01:35:56	Karsavina is dancing tonight.
01:35:59	And, oh, Manny Komroff says
01:36:01	Jack...
01:36:03	Thanks for bringing me here.
01:36:17	Will they strike?
01:36:20	Do you speak English?
01:36:24	Do you speak English?
01:36:25	Do you speak English?
01:36:29	Do you speak English?
01:36:31	Do you speak English?
01:36:33	Do you speak English?
01:36:35	- Do you speak English?
01:36:37	Will they strike?
01:36:43	- New York?
01:36:44	- You know Broome Street?
01:36:46	I know,
01:36:47	- I lived there four years.
01:36:51	What is he saying?
01:36:53	Can you tell me what he's saying?
01:36:55	He says don't strike.
01:36:58	to leave our Russian soldiers
01:37:03	You are a long way from New York.
01:37:24	He says that our Russian
01:37:27	are also strike.
01:37:28	That is why they're leaving the Front.
01:37:43	What's that?
01:37:44	He said that the workers of England,
01:37:46	will be left alone to fight Germany.
01:37:48	Tell him he doesn't know
01:37:49	in England, France and America
01:37:51	You lived in New York. Tell him that.
01:37:53	You are right, American.
01:38:02	Go ahead, you speak.
01:38:07	Go ahead.
01:38:08	Tell them about your American workers.
01:38:10	No, I can't speak here, I don't have
01:38:12	- I'm an American...
01:38:15	Everyone has credentials here.
01:38:17	He ask you to speak.
01:38:20	Speak. I translate.
01:38:46	I only want to say that if you strike,
01:38:48	the American workers
01:38:57	They're waiting for your example.
01:39:00	They're waiting for your leadership.
01:39:02	If you refuse to support
01:39:05	they will follow your example.
01:39:07	And if workers of the world
01:39:09	the war can be stopped.
01:39:18	They support you
00:00:05	And the last fight
00:00:09	The Internationale
00:00:12	Unites the human race
00:00:15	Then, comrades, come rally
00:00:18	And the last fight
00:00:21	The Internationale
00:00:24	Unites the human race
00:00:28	That's how it goes.
00:00:29	Porter!
00:00:36	Confiscate it.
00:00:38	I'll take it with me to Washington
00:00:40	On whose authority?
00:00:43	The authority of the Attorney General.
00:00:46	All right, pack it up.
00:00:48	- Attorney General?
00:00:52	That's upside down.
00:00:55	- Louise!
00:00:57	How are you?
00:01:00	Max. Hi!
00:01:04	Hi!
00:01:05	Oh, God, Louise. You look good!
00:01:08	God, whatever you've been doing,
00:01:10	Oh, thank you.
00:01:12	He's gonna write a great book, Max,
00:01:15	so we can have something to live on.
00:01:16	And he's gonna write
00:01:18	And then we're gonna go back to Croton
00:01:20	and he's gonna help me edit
00:01:22	on women in the Revolution,
00:01:23	and then we're gonna help
00:01:25	No more separations.
00:01:28	We're really going to get down
00:01:30	It's so moving.
00:01:34	Well, they took my notes.
00:01:38	Can they do that?
00:01:39	Welcome home. Let's go.
00:01:42	Come on, come on.
00:01:44	You'll write your book.
00:01:46	A lot's been happening. Now what
00:01:48	I understand you and Louise
00:01:51	It's a very difficult situation
00:01:53	for a country who is conducting a war,
00:01:57	when one of its allies has a revolution
00:02:00	and the government is changed.
00:02:02	The thing that made the furor
00:02:06	and we lost an ally.
00:02:08	We thought the Russians
00:02:11	The Bolshevik Revolution, at the time,
00:02:14	was the most single striking
00:02:17	of the whole era.
00:02:19	The complete transformation
00:02:22	and the taking over
00:02:25	of the machinery of the state.
00:02:26	It never had happened before in history.
00:02:29	You're a grand old flag
00:02:30	You're a high flying flag
00:02:32	And forever and e'er may you wave
00:02:35	You're the emblem of
00:02:38	The home of the free and the brave
00:02:41	Every heart beats true
00:02:44	Where there's never a boast or brag
00:02:47	Should auld acquaintance be forgot
00:02:50	Keep your eye on the grand old flag
00:02:53	Over There is not till 1918.
00:02:56	Over there, over there
00:02:58	Send the word, send the word
00:02:59	Over there
00:03:02	You know that one.
00:03:03	But the other one
00:03:07	or before, was
00:03:12	I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy
00:03:14	Yankee Doodle...
00:03:16	Real live nephew of my Uncle Sam
00:03:18	Born on the 4th of July
00:03:21	I've got a Yankee Doodle sweetheart
00:03:24	She's my Yankee Doodle joy
00:03:26	Yankee Doodle went to London
00:03:29	I am the Yankee Doodle boy
00:03:32	That was a big hit.
00:03:35	- Do you believe in God?
00:03:39	It's a simple question, Miss Bryant.
00:03:43	I'm sorry, for a moment I thought
00:03:44	you asked me
00:03:46	That is precisely what I asked you.
00:03:48	I see. Well, I have no way of knowing.
00:03:51	Are you a Christian?
00:03:53	I was christened in the Catholic Church.
00:03:56	- Well, are you a Christian now?
00:04:00	Do you believe
00:04:03	I believe in the teachings of Christ.
00:04:07	Miss Bryant, tell me,
00:04:08	are there no decent, God-fearing
00:04:13	Does one have to be God-fearing
00:04:16	Senator, the Bolsheviks believe
00:04:19	that's kept the Russian people back
00:04:22	- Miss Bryant...
00:04:24	and seen the peasants,
00:04:26	On the subject of decency, Senator,
00:04:28	the Bolsheviks took power
00:04:31	Within six months, they made good
00:04:34	Now, the present President
00:04:36	went to this country in 1916,
00:04:40	Within six months,
00:04:42	and 115,000 young Americans
00:04:45	If that's how decent,
00:04:47	give me atheists anytime.
00:04:51	By the way, Senator Overman,
00:04:54	which is more than you can say
00:04:56	Miss Bryant,
00:04:58	do you advocate a Soviet government
00:05:01	No. In this country
00:05:04	In other words,
00:05:05	They got scared, or we got scared?
00:05:08	No, we didn't get scared.
00:05:10	They were afraid that the unions
00:05:14	A radical movement in America.
00:05:18	Oh, sure.
00:05:19	The Americans, they were frightened
00:05:23	That it could occur here.
00:05:25	Sure. Everybody was in mortal dread
00:05:28	of the government descending on them.
00:05:31	The FBI or whatever it was,
00:05:34	We had to expose them.
00:05:35	And once they told American people
00:05:39	People won't have nothing to do
00:05:41	They know what it is.
00:05:43	But then, they didn't know.
00:05:46	Public opinion was
00:05:49	who had a good word
00:05:53	But Louise was always communicating
00:05:59	I brought blankets, here,
00:06:02	and a heavy coat, here.
00:06:06	Chase and Sanborn.
00:06:08	Gloves.
00:06:09	Thank you, Jack.
00:06:12	And Louise sends you her best and this.
00:06:18	A scarf. Very kind.
00:06:22	I'm afraid your time is up.
00:06:24	Well,
00:06:26	we're going to keep fighting this.
00:06:29	Will you tell Max I'd like a picture
00:06:32	And under it, I would like the words,
00:06:37	"The government of the most
00:06:38	"is afraid of this woman."
00:06:40	We're going to get you back, E.G.
00:06:43	The revolution needs you.
00:06:46	Comrade, I'm not leaving
00:06:49	In Russia, I'll be joining it.
00:06:52	I urged the deportation of all
00:06:57	alien Communists.
00:07:01	It's bad enough having
00:07:04	but to have alien Communists
00:07:07	denouncing our form
00:07:10	and everything else,
00:07:12	And I led a big fight on that
00:07:15	It wasn't a very healthy atmosphere.
00:07:19	So when John Reed came along,
00:07:21	well, he was a voice of what I love.
00:07:24	He was able to go into the most
00:07:28	Communism, Bolshevism.
00:07:30	He was considered one of the rare
00:07:34	He knew he was
00:07:37	and he wrote it that way.
00:07:46	- A touch of this...
00:07:49	I'm in here, honey.
00:07:50	I talked to Edmund and Alfred today
00:07:53	- What a day it's turned out to be.
00:07:56	What are you doing in there?
00:08:00	- Can't I help?
00:08:02	Sure smells good. What is it?
00:08:04	Stay out, honey.
00:08:05	Stay out, honey.
00:08:06	He said in a few weeks
00:08:10	He thinks at least 200,000 of them,
00:08:15	But he doesn't think there's
00:08:18	Yeah? That's good.
00:08:19	You still thinking
00:08:21	Well, I can't really talk now,
00:08:24	Evidently the federal government's
00:08:27	So what they're doing is
00:08:30	just to look into subversive activity.
00:08:32	And you know, with all this talk
00:08:35	being in cahoots with the Steel Trust,
00:08:37	Alfred asked me if I was still gonna do
00:08:40	So I said, "Alfred, for the moment
00:08:43	- "than New Jersey."
00:08:45	Oh, that's good. That's good.
00:08:47	- Just...
00:08:49	Sit down. I'll just be a minute.
00:08:54	Jack, what are you doing?
00:08:55	- How did you leave it with Edmund?
00:08:59	Okay, the first course.
00:09:02	- Yeah?
00:09:04	Sit down and close your eyes. Sit down.
00:09:14	Okay.
00:09:18	Oh, my.
00:09:23	My...
00:09:25	- Go ahead.
00:09:34	What do you think?
00:09:37	Really? You serious?
00:09:41	Really? Thank God.
00:09:45	but the goddamn things flambéed
00:09:49	He was certainly the main inspiration
00:09:52	in the development
00:09:55	through his history
00:09:57	of Ten Days That Shook The World.
00:10:00	Ten Days That Shook The World
00:10:03	He was there when
00:10:06	And his was the best report of it.
00:10:09	Max Eastman had this story
00:10:12	tousled hair all, you know...
00:10:16	and not to disturb him for ten days.
00:10:18	And that became
00:10:22	Supposedly.
00:10:24	He was an enormous,
00:10:28	and this success
00:10:32	'cause he found out there was
00:10:35	do practically better than anyone else.
00:10:37	"Comrades, we have made
00:10:41	"to capture
00:10:43	"The time of right-wing domination
00:10:47	"They have fallen before the shining
00:10:50	"like so many bowling pins!
00:10:55	"Comrades, we have done better
00:10:58	"The left wing has won 12
00:11:00	"on the Socialist Party Executive,
00:11:02	"including myself,
00:11:15	He took a tremendous jump forward
00:11:18	He became a revolutionist
00:11:22	and he had no more illusions
00:11:25	We all have problems.
00:11:26	You can't escape having problems,
00:11:29	But to take on the problem
00:11:32	to save all humanity,
00:11:34	my God, that was too big
00:11:38	Don't you know
00:11:40	How the hell do we expect
00:11:50	Oh.
00:11:55	Louise. Is that you?
00:11:57	Hello, Harry.
00:12:00	Well, where have you been lately?
00:12:03	That's right.
00:12:05	It might. We've been kicked out.
00:12:07	- Kicked out of what?
00:12:10	- Wait, wait. Who got kicked out?
00:12:12	The Executive Committee
00:12:14	- The whole left wing?
00:12:18	- Can they do that?
00:12:20	We're the majority. We have the votes.
00:12:21	We weren't expelled
00:12:23	We were expelled by the executives.
00:12:24	And you're talking about doing exactly
00:12:26	what the Executive Committee
00:12:28	Give the party back to them
00:12:30	Yes! And organize our own party!
00:12:32	Goddamn it, Louis,
00:12:35	We were voted into power
00:12:38	and we can't be expelled
00:12:40	It's an illegal act, and if we fight it
00:12:43	Why do we have to fight?
00:12:45	What do you mean,
00:12:46	For what do we stay in a party
00:12:47	in which we must win control
00:12:51	Well, what is it, Louis? You mean,
00:12:54	then to hell with it?
00:12:57	I'd like to hear more about
00:13:00	My idea of revolution
00:13:03	And my idea of a socialist party
00:13:07	It is a party of action!
00:13:09	Fine! Fine.
00:13:11	The best example we can give them
00:13:14	and take control of the party!
00:13:16	No! We form our own party!
00:13:18	And I hope that everybody here
00:13:21	will be there that night
00:13:29	All right, but I say you're wrong,
00:13:31	and I say that I'm gonna be there
00:13:35	to take the seat that belongs to me,
00:13:38	to be there to take the seats
00:13:42	It's almost like they want to be
00:13:45	They do want to be separated
00:13:47	Let's go.
00:13:50	I've been in a minority before.
00:13:54	Hello.
00:14:01	While he liked the draft manifesto,
00:14:03	he's a bit nervous
00:14:05	- Excuse me.
00:14:07	Is he gonna bring his people
00:14:09	The man will talk theory
00:14:10	Well, I don't think so.
00:14:12	Isn't that nice? He likes the manifesto.
00:14:15	I don't think we're gonna have
00:14:17	We're gonna get in.
00:14:19	- Carnofsky said no.
00:14:21	- Just knowing on our own...
00:14:23	Come in!
00:14:27	- Hi, Eddie.
00:14:28	- Hello, Eddie.
00:14:31	Hey.
00:14:33	Eddie, what about Levine?
00:14:37	- Eddie?
00:14:39	- What did Levine say?
00:14:43	I waited over an hour.
00:14:45	- Levine didn't show.
00:14:47	Sure it does. Where were you meeting?
00:14:49	In Casey's.
00:14:50	Now, that surprises me.
00:14:54	I could have missed him.
00:14:57	It was really busy in there.
00:14:58	- You could have missed him?
00:15:01	I was late.
00:15:04	How late?
00:15:08	Forty, forty-five minutes.
00:15:11	Nora started spitting up blood
00:15:17	I had to take her to the clinic,
00:15:18	and I had to wait for my mother
00:15:22	So you were 45 minutes late.
00:15:26	Yeah. I thought I could make it.
00:15:28	All right, we gotta get in touch
00:15:31	He's on his way to Chicago.
00:15:32	That's one of the reasons
00:15:35	Wait a minute,
00:15:37	- Yeah.
00:15:41	- Who asked for the meeting?
00:15:43	- Did Levine want the meeting?
00:15:45	Did he call us?
00:15:47	No. We called him.
00:15:48	Then why would he wait?
00:15:57	I'm sorry.
00:15:58	Well, why didn't you call one of us
00:16:02	Because I thought I could make it.
00:16:04	I mean, I thought the man
00:16:06	You thought, you thought, you thought.
00:16:10	Not when your comrades
00:16:14	Be sure.
00:16:20	All right, look.
00:16:21	Do we have a contact
00:16:24	Let's call Singer.
00:16:26	- Do you have a number for him?
00:16:32	Here.
00:16:34	Thanks.
00:16:37	You know, they might work better
00:16:38	if you put something in your stomach
00:16:42	You're a little hard on Eddie,
00:16:45	You think my sympathies
00:16:47	Might help Eddie.
00:16:49	Listen to me.
00:16:59	Four, eight, twelve...
00:17:08	You know, I think we all believe
00:17:14	But with us,
00:17:17	it's more or less our good intentions.
00:17:22	And with Jack, it's a religion.
00:17:33	Our old friend Jack's
00:17:41	Okay. Hey, Frank, how are you?
00:17:43	How are you?
00:17:48	Excuse me. What's happening here?
00:17:50	No one's admitted without a red card.
00:17:53	Well, I'm on the Executive,
00:17:55	- No one's admitted without a red card.
00:17:58	You'll have to take that up
00:18:00	And where's
00:18:01	And where's
00:18:01	I don't know.
00:18:03	I don't think he wants us to go in there.
00:18:05	Well, the way to take the hall
00:18:08	Edmund!
00:18:09	Edmund! Jack!
00:18:11	Okay. Let's go. Let's go.
00:18:18	To propose the agenda,
00:18:21	from the Credentials Committee
00:18:25	May we please have order back there?
00:18:29	In the back of the hall, could we have...
00:18:31	Sergeant-at-arms, would you see
00:18:35	Ladies and gentlemen, it seems
00:18:39	who are trying to take over
00:18:41	We're not going to let them.
00:18:43	Now, please, please sit down.
00:18:47	Sergeant-at-arms,
00:18:50	Please, everyone, sit down.
00:18:52	Now, these are Bolshevik sympathizers
00:18:55	who are trying to take over this party,
00:19:00	The police are coming.
00:19:03	These people aren't socialists.
00:19:08	Now you see? That is Bolshevik tactics!
00:19:10	Come on, delegates.
00:19:12	They were not elected
00:19:14	Ladies and gentlemen,
00:19:18	- You see? The police.
00:19:20	That's the only way the Executive
00:19:24	is by the use of the capitalist police.
00:19:25	Flash your red cards!
00:19:27	They'll resort to any tactics
00:19:29	away from its true leadership
00:19:33	Officers, whoever has no red card
00:19:37	Hold up your red cards.
00:19:38	It's all right. We're going.
00:19:41	If you want to know
00:19:43	of the Socialist Party of America is,
00:19:45	it'll be in the basement of this building
00:19:48	- Red cards, everybody!
00:19:50	I want anybody who does not have
00:20:42	Comrade Chairman, I move that
00:20:45	as the bona fide Communist party,
00:20:47	and that we call ourselves
00:20:49	I second that motion!
00:20:50	Well, look, if we're gonna have
00:20:53	I think what we have to do
00:20:55	what he wants the most and then
00:20:58	in terms of the labor movement
00:21:00	What we have to do
00:21:02	We have to make him want
00:21:05	Those people upstairs
00:21:07	who wrote a good antitrust law.
00:21:09	And whether we call our party
00:21:11	or the Real Socialist Communist...
00:21:14	it doesn't matter because it...
00:21:17	Hello, Lou, are you lost?
00:21:19	No. I'm not lost.
00:21:22	that the newly-formed
00:21:24	is meeting at the Russian Federation
00:21:28	We welcome your applications.
00:21:30	They will be judged
00:21:33	You're gonna judge our applications?
00:21:34	We're gonna apply to you
00:21:36	Comrade Chairman,
00:21:39	The motion has been made
00:21:41	we immediately constitute ourselves
00:21:44	and that we call ourselves
00:21:47	All those in favor,
00:21:50	Aye!
00:21:51	Opposed? Motion is carried.
00:21:55	Comrades! Comrades!
00:21:56	Comrades, this is the wrong time
00:22:00	We should be united in our struggle
00:22:03	You should have thought of that
00:22:05	If your people had stayed with us,
00:22:08	and we'd be in control
00:22:10	We have five times your membership!
00:22:12	Louis, your arithmetic's
00:22:14	We will be at the Russian Federation
00:22:18	I hope to see some of you there.
00:22:20	Comrade Chairman, I move we
00:22:22	to gain recognition by the Comintern
00:22:24	for the Communist Labor Party
00:22:26	- and that delegate be Jack Reed.
00:22:28	The motion has been made
00:22:31	to Moscow immediately
00:22:33	to obtain recognition of the Comintern
00:22:35	for the Communist Labor Party
00:22:37	All those in favor,
00:22:39	Aye!
00:22:40	Opposed? Motion is carried.
00:22:44	Since the first question
00:22:46	All right, thank you.
00:22:48	All right, comrades, since
00:22:50	by the Comintern is gonna be
00:22:53	I think I'm gonna have to be very clear
00:22:56	in relation to
00:22:58	I'm gonna have to say exactly
00:23:00	as opposed to any other group,
00:23:02	and I think we'll have to make it clear
00:23:04	and be very clear in the manifesto.
00:23:06	- Good luck in Moscow, Jack!
00:23:07	Well, I guess you boys think
00:23:24	Hello, Jessie.
00:23:28	Good girl.
00:23:32	- Hello.
00:24:11	Let me make it easy for you, Jack.
00:24:21	And if you go, I'm not sure I'll be here
00:24:26	Louise, you know, the Comintern
00:24:30	from the New York Yankees.
00:24:33	Somebody's got to go over there
00:24:39	We'd be back by Christmas.
00:24:45	We can't merge with Fraina.
00:24:47	We can't deal with him
00:24:49	He wouldn't accept half of our people.
00:24:51	The man is gonna do nothing
00:24:53	from any potential
00:24:56	He's sociologically isolated,
00:24:57	programmatically he's impossible
00:24:59	You mean he's a foreigner?
00:25:01	Don't do that, Louise.
00:25:03	Six months ago, you were friends.
00:25:04	These people can barely speak English.
00:25:06	They don't even want to be integrated
00:25:09	The Foreign Language Federations
00:25:11	in America any more
00:25:14	Being Russian
00:25:15	Do you think the American workers
00:25:17	are gonna be led
00:25:18	Or an insular Italian like Louis Fraina?
00:25:20	He has no possibility
00:25:23	Unlike you?
00:25:24	I'm just saying
00:25:26	is not gonna be led by immigrants.
00:25:28	Revolution? In this country?
00:25:32	Well, what do you think
00:25:34	if we'd been ready?
00:25:36	30,000 party members all armed
00:25:39	leading 365,000 steelworkers?
00:25:41	What it takes is leadership.
00:25:43	And we gotta get it
00:25:46	- I have to go.
00:25:47	You want to go. You want to go running
00:25:50	and making resolutions
00:25:53	What's the difference
00:25:55	and the Communist Labor Party
00:25:56	except that you're running one
00:25:58	- I've made a commitment.
00:26:01	To the fine distinction between
00:26:04	is recognized by Moscow as
00:26:08	To petty political squabbling between
00:26:11	just wasting their time
00:26:14	To getting the endorsement
00:26:16	you call the International
00:26:17	for your group of 14 intellectual friends
00:26:20	who are supposed to tell the workers
00:26:22	whether they want it or not?
00:26:32	Write, Jack.
00:26:35	You're not a politician, you're a writer.
00:26:38	And your writing has done more
00:26:39	than 20 years of this infighting can do,
00:26:43	You're an artist, Jack.
00:27:08	Don't go.
00:27:10	Don't run away
00:27:16	Jack.
00:27:27	I'll be back by Christmas.
00:27:55	I'm going into the city.
00:27:58	Tomorrow.
00:27:59	- I see.
00:28:03	Will you be here?
00:28:07	I don't know. I'll see you when I see you.
00:28:27	Here. Your passport and papers.
00:28:32	Go now!
00:29:18	Well, Mrs. Reed. Sit down.
00:29:22	What can I do for you?
00:29:24	Hello, Gene. How are you?
00:29:28	Fine. And you?
00:29:32	I'm fine.
00:29:46	Sit down.
00:29:53	- How's Jack?
00:29:57	- Is he?
00:29:58	He's trying to get recognition
00:30:00	for the Communist Labor Party.
00:30:02	You see, they've split
00:30:05	And you?
00:30:11	No.
00:30:12	Well, actually, yes,
00:30:15	I do a lot of lecturing
00:30:18	Ah, yes, Russia.
00:30:20	Russia's been good for you and Jack.
00:30:23	Given you a way to meet people,
00:30:29	Russia.
00:30:31	Russia.
00:30:33	Are you really that cynical,
00:30:35	I'm really that cynical.
00:30:38	Gene, if you'd been to Russia,
00:30:40	you'd never be cynical
00:30:42	You would have seen
00:30:45	Louise, something in me tightens when
00:30:50	and they start to talk to me
00:30:53	- Wait...
00:30:55	"A new version of Irish Catholicism
00:30:59	- It's not like that.
00:31:01	a lovely wife like Louise Reed
00:31:05	is sitting around
00:31:08	instead of trotting all over Russia
00:31:12	It's almost worth being converted.
00:31:19	Well, I was wrong to come.
00:31:22	You and Jack have a lot of
00:31:27	Jack dreams that he can hustle
00:31:30	whose one dream is to be rich enough
00:31:33	into a revolution led by his party.
00:31:36	And you dream that if you discuss
00:31:39	before you go to bed with him,
00:31:41	it'll be missionary work rather than sex.
00:31:44	I'm sorry to see you and Jack
00:31:47	It's particularly disappointing
00:31:50	You had a lighter touch
00:31:56	Boy, you've become quite the critic,
00:31:59	Just leaned back and analyzed us all.
00:32:02	Duplicitous women who tout free love
00:32:05	power-mad journalists
00:32:07	instead of observing it,
00:32:08	middle-class radicals
00:32:10	and then talk about Russia.
00:32:12	It must seem so contemptible
00:32:14	who has the courage to sit on his ass
00:32:17	from the inside of a bottle.
00:32:19	Well, I've never seen you
00:32:21	I've never seen you
00:32:23	so I can understand why you might
00:32:27	But whatever Jack's motives are, how...
00:32:31	I seem to have touched a wound.
00:32:35	You're a wounding son of a bitch,
00:32:37	and whatever I've done to you,
00:32:42	Louise.
00:33:12	Jessie!
00:33:14	Hey, Jess, come on! Come here, Jess.
00:33:17	Jessie, come here.
00:33:25	Jessie.
00:34:03	Jessie?
00:34:22	Jessie?
00:34:23	- Oh!
00:34:25	By the order of the Attorney General
00:34:27	A. Mitchell Palmer,
00:34:29	for the arrest of one John Silas Reed.
00:34:30	Look upstairs, Frank.
00:34:39	- Arrest for what?
00:34:42	- Where is he?
00:34:44	Lady, don't ask me.
00:34:47	Just tell me where he is.
00:34:54	I don't suppose there's a chance
00:34:55	of you being a Bolshevik agitator,
00:34:59	Why don't you just look around,
00:35:02	In 1919,
00:35:05	there were no more
00:35:07	than four or five Americans
00:35:11	who got into Russia
00:35:13	because the country was surrounded
00:35:18	You were actually forbidden to go,
00:35:22	It was very dangerous
00:35:25	Because the Finns
00:35:28	and they were bitterly opposed
00:35:31	They decided to strangle
00:35:33	the revolutionary Bolshevik infant
00:35:37	And 16 armies went into Russia
00:35:41	for the purpose
00:35:43	and wiping out the revolution
00:35:45	and restoring Christian civilization
00:36:15	Speak English.
00:36:17	Have a lemon.
00:36:19	Thank you. I just want to know
00:36:23	- in what I said about...
00:36:25	Salt?
00:36:28	- Salt?
00:36:30	Thank you.
00:36:33	I see you eat the peel with the lemon.
00:36:36	Fights the scurvy. So does the onion.
00:36:40	Together, they fight better.
00:36:45	You see, what I really wanted to do
00:36:47	was ask your frank opinion
00:36:50	You think we'll get the endorsement
00:36:53	- I ask unofficially, of course.
00:36:59	Unofficially, I don't know.
00:37:03	Yeah, well, it's such a...
00:37:05	It's a peculiarly American problem
00:37:09	- You do think I was clear?
00:37:12	In this case, however, clarity does not
00:37:16	Well, I don't know.
00:37:19	You know, in fact, I don't...
00:37:23	What I really want to do
00:37:26	for the Executive Committee to read
00:37:29	You see, I'd like to deal in that report
00:37:32	of the American Federation of Labor.
00:37:34	I'd like to deal
00:37:36	And I'm gonna talk
00:37:39	I'm gonna deal with the rise
00:37:42	and the capitulation
00:37:44	- I'm gonna... Am I speaking too quickly?
00:37:47	And so I will deal with
00:37:52	I'll talk about the general strikes
00:37:55	the Boston police strike.
00:37:57	I'm gonna discuss the Plumb Plan,
00:38:00	and the policies of the AF of L
00:38:03	Now, after that, I think it's important...
00:38:12	Comrade Reed, the Executive
00:38:15	has decided against endorsing
00:38:18	or the Communist Party of America,
00:38:20	and instructs the two parties
00:38:29	Sit here, Comrade Reed.
00:38:30	This time, your usual chair,
00:38:32	is now occupied by your detailed report
00:38:35	A most penetrating study.
00:38:38	Thank you.
00:38:40	Obviously, it wasn't clear enough.
00:38:43	Comrade Radek,
00:38:44	I think there must have been
00:38:47	about my travel arrangements
00:38:51	Well, it seems as if I've been asked
00:38:55	That is right.
00:38:56	Comrade Reed,
00:39:00	you are very much needed
00:39:03	We plan for you to remain
00:39:05	You're very welcome
00:39:07	Well, thank you very much,
00:39:09	but I thought that these
00:39:12	I have to get to the Latvian
00:39:14	And to which border would you suggest,
00:39:16	Well, I understand that train travel
00:39:19	Why does he need a train?
00:39:22	Because I have urgent personal
00:39:25	- in the United States and I...
00:39:28	- Excuse me?
00:39:34	- I have a family.
00:39:38	Well, I can speak only for myself
00:39:43	It's very urgent,
00:39:46	and I ask only
00:39:50	But you have a place on the train!
00:39:51	You have a place
00:39:53	You have been like so many others,
00:39:56	One of the engineers
00:39:58	that pulls this revolution
00:40:02	laid out for it by the party.
00:40:04	You can't leave us now.
00:40:06	- What right do you have you to leave...
00:40:07	To do what? To see your wife?
00:40:10	Last year at the International Congress
00:40:11	I learned that my son
00:40:13	I didn't go to see my son
00:40:15	because I knew I was needed
00:40:18	What you don't understand is...
00:40:19	Would you like to abandon this moment
00:40:22	Would you ever get this moment again?
00:40:23	- I am not abandoning the revolution!
00:40:26	People know and respect your work.
00:40:28	- You speak with authority of feeling.
00:40:31	for the past eight weeks,
00:40:33	I've been completely unable
00:40:36	or with my comrades
00:40:38	I need to go back. I would like your help.
00:40:40	Comrade Reed, you can always go back
00:40:44	so can I.
00:40:45	You can never, never come back
00:40:51	I'm sorry.
00:40:52	I have no right to tell you
00:40:54	You know it better than I do.
00:41:19	Maybe it was impossible
00:41:21	There was White armies all around,
00:41:24	so escape was not dreamt of.
00:42:23	We had a communication from Jack.
00:42:26	He was in prison in Finland
00:42:29	But he got word out to me
00:42:32	to take a message to Louise.
00:42:35	And I remember walking over to Louise,
00:42:38	I walked over to Louise's apartment
00:42:42	and spent an evening with her
00:42:45	and she talked very earnestly
00:43:01	Mrs. Reed, the United States
00:43:03	in the internal affairs of Finland.
00:43:05	Are you trying to tell me
00:43:07	- can't give you any information?
00:43:09	- that the State Department can do.
00:43:12	If his name were Rockefeller,
00:43:14	Mrs. Reed, if your husband's name
00:43:17	I think he would hardly be
00:43:19	for a conspiracy to overthrow
00:43:21	He has only one kidney.
00:43:24	That is a chance
00:43:27	when he left the United States
00:43:31	Good day, Mrs. Reed.
00:43:34	The United States
00:43:37	in military expeditions against
00:43:40	in an attempt to overcome them,
00:43:44	and set up another government.
00:43:47	There was a noose
00:43:49	to be pulled around Russia
00:43:52	which gave you an idea
00:43:57	can be surrounded
00:44:11	Your name,
00:44:31	Your name,
00:44:34	I don't know what color...
00:44:37	I'll just get it myself.
00:44:38	- Would you get some...
00:44:41	- Okay.
00:44:42	- All right.
00:44:44	From the top?
00:44:46	Oh, I see. Then they made a map.
00:44:49	Terry spoke to me.
00:44:50	Louise, I don't think you realize
00:44:54	You'd have to stow away.
00:44:55	If you got there at all,
00:44:58	Terry said that he thought that
00:45:00	- as far as Norway.
00:45:02	You know what I mean?
00:45:04	Sit down.
00:45:07	I want to talk to you about something.
00:45:11	...indicates the map.
00:45:12	I could go.
00:45:14	I can sign on as a seaman.
00:45:17	I think under the circumstances...
00:45:23	Don't look at me like that.
00:45:26	I'm not gonna let
00:45:29	Just seemed to me
00:45:36	...and at this point...
00:45:39	Okay.
00:45:40	Wasn't he supposed to come over
00:45:43	I'll talk to Terry in the morning.
00:45:45	Where the cross is made...
00:45:47	I wish these son-of-a-bitches could act.
00:46:35	Your blood pressure is very high.
00:46:38	They only give me
00:46:41	The blood in your mouth
00:46:44	You have scurvy.
00:46:48	An impressive shade of red, comrade.
00:46:56	Could you send a cable to my wife?
00:47:59	Mr. Reed, I have something for you.
00:48:06	- Is there a cable?
00:48:09	You should take one of these powders
00:48:14	Has she sent word to me here?
00:48:16	They won't say.
00:48:45	You are being released.
00:48:51	You know, I must tell you,
00:48:56	But what I heard was
00:48:58	the Bolsheviki traded
00:49:03	for the release of John Reed.
00:49:06	John Reed.
00:49:07	We are here to welcome you.
00:49:11	Could you take me
00:49:14	- Yes. Get in.
00:49:25	"Louise Bryant, Croton-on..."
00:49:29	Hudson.
00:49:30	"...Hudson, New York, USA.
00:49:33	"I'm safe. Stop."
00:49:35	"Please contact..."
00:49:37	Contact. Please contact.
00:49:39	"Contact Petrograd telegraph office.
00:49:42	"Have received no word from you. Stop.
00:49:45	"Please for... Forgive..."
00:49:49	Please forgive Christmas.
00:49:50	"Please forgive Christmas. Stop.
00:49:58	Could you send that right away?
00:50:03	Comrade Lenin said
00:50:06	he would trade,
00:50:12	"Louise Bryant, Croton-on-Hudson,
00:50:15	"New York, USA."
00:50:17	- USA.
00:50:20	- Immediate return...
00:50:22	- ... United States...
00:50:24	- ... impossible.
00:50:25	- Louise Bryant, Croton...
00:50:28	- "Croton-on..."
00:50:31	"Croton-on-Hudson, New York, USA.
00:50:35	"Still no word from you. Stop.
00:50:41	"Louise Bryant.
00:50:47	"Must know, are you well? Stop."
00:50:51	- "Do not..."
00:50:53	"Do not understand
00:50:59	"Louise Bryant.
00:51:04	- "Need..."
00:51:06	"Need word from you. Stop.
00:51:11	"Louise Bryant. Croton-on-Hudson,
00:51:14	- "New York, USA."
00:51:19	Yes. Yes.
00:51:20	And you checked R-E-l-D also?
00:51:21	I have looked R-E-l-D,
00:51:24	R-E-A-D,
00:51:26	R-E-D.
00:51:31	I'm just... Excuse me. One second.
00:51:34	Lf, if...
00:51:36	I thought maybe there's some other way
00:51:39	- You also looked under R-E-l-D?
00:51:43	- Yes, yes. What do you want?
00:51:48	- Excuse me.
00:51:56	What have you heard?
00:51:58	Not much. What have you heard?
00:52:00	I don't hear. I wait.
00:52:03	But they made Bill Shatoff
00:52:06	They treated me very well,
00:52:10	- Well, that's wise.
00:52:13	There are forests within easy reach
00:52:15	Why is this city freezing?
00:52:17	I asked Zinoviev.
00:52:18	He said our enemies have destroyed
00:52:21	and killed off our horses
00:52:22	How would we get at it?
00:52:23	I said, "What about
00:52:25	"They could go there together on foot
00:52:28	He said, "Oh, yes, it would make
00:52:29	"but it would interfere with the carrying
00:52:32	- You get letters from America, E. G?
00:52:35	All opened by the Justice Department.
00:52:39	So I asked him,
00:52:41	He said,
00:52:44	"of the proletarian avant-garde.
00:52:46	"The avant-garde of the revolution,
00:52:50	Anybody mention Louise?
00:52:53	I don't think so.
00:52:56	I've sent her cables,
00:52:59	- For how long?
00:53:03	Wait.
00:53:04	Rhys Williams
00:53:07	He hasn't heard from her, either.
00:53:09	What'd he say?
00:53:12	I think he said
00:53:15	sometime after Christmas,
00:53:22	How long ago was that?
00:53:24	Well, you know how these letters take
00:53:27	By the time I get them, whoever sent it
00:53:32	- That's it.
00:53:33	- There.
00:53:35	Oh.
00:53:38	- First the eyes go, then the legs.
00:53:41	Yeah, I don't understand
00:53:45	I don't know...
00:53:51	He says she seems to be out of town.
00:53:54	That's all he said?
00:53:57	Yeah.
00:53:59	What did he say about O'Neill?
00:54:01	O'Neill? Nothing.
00:54:03	Come on, what did he say?
00:54:06	Nothing.
00:54:07	Can I see it?
00:54:15	I'm sorry.
00:54:24	I just don't know where...
00:54:30	Jack, sit down.
00:54:44	If Louise were to come here,
00:54:46	she'd have to leave
00:54:49	then live in exile with you,
00:54:52	All for the sake of a revolution
00:54:55	Why should she?
00:54:58	You chose the life of a revolutionary.
00:55:00	She didn't.
00:55:02	Your cables only focus the
00:55:07	and the most seditious thing
00:55:10	is being your wife.
00:55:13	Leave her alone.
00:55:15	Let her choose her own future.
00:55:18	Why hasn't she answered me?
00:55:20	I think she has answered you.
00:57:38	He's been released.
00:58:04	Do you know, she was much hated
00:58:07	for her extravagance in clothes.
00:58:09	Well, a long time ago,
00:58:15	"People who...
00:58:16	"Women whose lives
00:58:19	"over a long period
00:58:23	Comrades, as wrong-headed
00:58:26	the IWW is a revolutionary union
00:58:29	and the American Federation of Labor
00:58:31	To think we can infiltrate
00:58:34	and convert it
00:58:36	Translation.
00:58:40	Comrades, that's the wrong translation.
00:58:51	That's not what he said.
00:58:53	What's he saying?
00:58:55	For us to make a point
00:58:57	we have to go
00:58:59	from our own English language
00:59:01	to the Italian, or Spanish,
00:59:04	- And then, when the response from...
00:59:08	Simply for the labor union issue,
00:59:11	could we have the English language
00:59:13	on the floor of the Congress?
00:59:17	Comrade Reed, this is the third time
00:59:21	The issue has been decided.
00:59:22	We must move on
00:59:29	Real revolutionary workers
00:59:32	quit the AF of L a long time ago
00:59:35	and joined the IWW.
00:59:37	We have to make
00:59:39	and that's why we want your support
00:59:42	to extend the session of congress
00:59:58	Jack, are you okay?
01:00:00	- Did you talk to Sadoul?
01:00:02	Comrades, I'm still opposed to closing
01:00:05	I think that this discussion
01:00:08	to avoid hearing the American
01:00:11	And if for no other reason than that,
01:00:13	it shows that discussion
01:00:16	Comrade Radek
01:00:18	in place of an argument and as a result,
01:00:21	What Reed says is not distinguished
01:00:26	He goes on day and night
01:00:28	that the discussion is being broken off
01:00:30	because of fear of the great might
01:00:49	Comrade Reed, you may have time
01:00:53	Other people do not have the time.
01:00:54	Comrade Radek, other people that
01:00:58	are 101 leaders of the IWW
01:01:01	who are in jail today
01:01:03	because of their revolutionary views.
01:01:05	And if we turn our back
01:01:08	out of some pipe dream to radicalize
01:01:12	which cannot be done, it is a disgrace.
01:01:13	We've discussed this
01:01:16	We spent whole day today discussing it,
01:01:17	and you insinuate
01:01:25	We haven't had enough discussion...
01:01:27	We haven't had enough discussion
01:01:30	to realize that Louis Fraina and I
01:01:33	Every American on our delegation,
01:01:35	- every man on the English delegation...
01:01:38	You are not
01:01:39	Comrade Zinoviev, I will not be
01:01:43	that has not had
01:01:46	On the fact...
01:01:55	The discussion is closed.
01:01:57	However, if Comrade Reed
01:01:59	he will have two minutes to do so.
01:02:02	I would merely want to say that
01:02:06	that we will refuse
01:02:08	and that I myself
01:03:18	Jack, I think we have to face it.
01:03:20	The dream that we had
01:03:23	If Bolshevism means
01:03:25	the workers taking the factories,
01:03:27	Russia's one place
01:03:30	You know, I can argue with cops,
01:03:34	I can't deal with a bureaucrat.
01:03:36	You think Zinoviev is nothing worse
01:03:39	The Soviets have no more
01:03:41	The central state has all the power.
01:03:43	All the power
01:03:45	and they are destroying the revolution.
01:03:47	They are destroying any hope
01:03:50	They're putting people like me in jail.
01:03:53	My understanding of revolution
01:03:55	is not a continual extermination
01:03:58	and I want no part of it.
01:04:01	Every single newspaper's
01:04:03	or taken over by the party.
01:04:05	Anyone even vaguely suspected
01:04:08	can be taken out and shot
01:04:11	Is any nightmare justifiable
01:04:14	in the name of defense
01:04:17	The dream may be dying in Russia,
01:04:19	It may take some time. I'm getting out.
01:04:22	You sound like you're a little confused
01:04:24	Up to now,
01:04:27	What did you think
01:04:28	A revolution by consensus
01:04:30	where we all sat down
01:04:32	Nothing works.
01:04:35	Four million people died last year.
01:04:37	Not from fighting a war,
01:04:38	they died from starvation and typhus
01:04:41	that suppresses
01:04:43	where nothing works.
01:04:44	They died because of a
01:04:46	that cut off
01:04:49	and because counter-revolutionaries
01:04:51	and the railroads and the telephones,
01:04:54	the poor, ignorant,
01:04:57	are trying to run things themselves,
01:05:00	but they don't know
01:05:02	Did you really think things would work
01:05:04	Did you really expect
01:05:06	to be anything other than
01:05:08	It's a war, E.G.,
01:05:11	with discipline,
01:05:13	or we just give it up.
01:05:16	Those four million people
01:05:18	They died from a system
01:05:30	It's just the beginning, E.G.
01:05:33	It's not happening
01:05:35	It's not happening
01:05:37	but it's happening.
01:05:43	If you walk out on it now,
01:05:45	what's your whole life meant?
01:05:52	Could you tell me if my resignation
01:05:55	- It is.
01:05:56	May I see it?
01:05:59	Thank you.
01:06:07	- Thank you, Comrade Reed.
01:06:10	Now you'll be able to represent
01:06:12	at the forthcoming congress at Baku
01:06:14	to inspire revolution among the peoples
01:06:17	Prepare for a difficult trip.
01:06:18	Our only route
01:07:01	Some of these intellectuals
01:07:05	that he changed his mind afterwards,
01:07:08	trying to, you know,
01:07:13	show that he came to his senses.
01:07:17	It's preposterous.
01:07:20	These men, well,
01:07:24	I don't want to remember them.
01:10:24	All trains to Baku canceled
01:10:27	by counter-revolutionaries.
01:10:28	There must be some train to Baku.
01:10:31	All trains to Baku canceled
01:10:33	because of attacks
01:10:36	There has to be something to Baku.
01:10:41	Louise?
01:10:46	Emma?
01:10:47	Emma.
01:10:49	Emma.
01:10:53	How in the name of God
01:10:58	- I had no idea how long it would take.
01:11:02	By the time you got there,
01:11:06	Go on in. Go on in.
01:11:07	Oh, I'm sorry.
01:11:09	It's all right. It's all right.
01:11:17	Here. Louise, sit down. Sit down.
01:11:30	I want to tell you something.
01:11:34	It's late, I know.
01:11:40	I want to thank you for that scarf.
01:11:43	Oh, yes.
01:11:46	I was wrong about you.
01:11:49	So was I.
01:11:52	The American oil companies
01:11:55	a world monopoly of oil.
01:11:59	In 1898, the Filipinos rebelled against
01:12:07	But after the Spaniards
01:12:29	The Americans have promised
01:12:32	Soon an independent Filipino republic
01:12:40	The government of United States
01:12:47	...under a dictatorship
01:12:59	What's that for?
01:13:01	They are supporting you
01:13:03	of Islamic people against
01:13:27	Excuse me, Comrade Reed.
01:13:29	They said you are not happy
01:13:31	I did the German into Turkic
01:13:33	and Comrade Ossinsky
01:13:35	Russian?
01:13:38	Who turned it into Russian
01:13:40	Well, I don't know.
01:13:41	They were already in Russian
01:13:43	from the office of Comrade Zinoviev.
01:13:47	- I'm sorry for my English.
01:13:56	Zinoviev, did you do
01:14:00	I supervised it. Yes.
01:14:02	I didn't say "holy war."
01:14:05	I took a liberty
01:14:08	Yes, well, I don't allow people
01:14:12	Aren't you propagandist enough
01:14:15	I'm propagandist enough
01:14:17	And who defines this truth?
01:14:21	Is your life dedicated to speaking for...
01:14:23	You don't talk about what
01:14:25	Your life? You haven't resolved
01:14:27	You see yourself as an artist
01:14:31	As a lover to your wife, but also as a
01:14:33	Zinoviev, you don't think
01:14:35	and be true to the collective,
01:14:37	or speak for his own country
01:14:40	or love his wife
01:14:44	you don't have a self to give!
01:14:45	Would you ever be willing
01:14:47	When you separate a man
01:14:49	what you do is purge
01:14:51	And when you purge
01:14:53	- you purge dissent.
01:14:55	And when you purge dissent,
01:14:58	Revolution is dissent!
01:14:59	- Comrade Reed.
01:15:09	Comrade Reed, counter-revolutionaries!
01:15:12	Counter-revolutionaries,
01:17:49	Papa!
01:17:53	Papa!
01:20:06	Don't leave me.
01:20:10	Please don't leave me.
01:20:27	Comrade, the doctor
01:20:46	The doctor thinks
01:20:49	And a picture of his illness
01:20:52	And he wants you to know
01:20:53	that we shall do the best conditions
01:20:56	to prevent possibility
01:20:58	to cause a stroke.
01:21:15	I really... I know...
01:21:19	What?
01:21:21	How are you?
01:21:27	No.
01:21:29	Jack?
01:21:54	You know, I don't... I don't...
01:22:07	You hear it?
01:22:09	- Huh?
01:22:11	The water plays little songs.
01:22:31	It's not December, is it?
01:22:52	My, my, my, my.
01:23:06	God. What a time it was, huh?
01:23:25	- Want to come to New York with me?
01:23:28	I got a taxi waiting.
01:23:32	I wouldn't mind.
01:23:36	What as?
01:23:39	What as?
01:23:42	What as?
01:23:46	Gee, I don't know.
01:23:56	Comrades?
01:24:03	Comrades.
01:24:10	Well, I want to go home.
01:24:18	Yeah.
01:24:58	I'll get you some water.
01:26:43	Oh, God.
01:28:11	It was in the afternoon,
01:28:13	sometime in the fall, I think.
01:28:16	October, I think.
01:28:19	Somebody came to tell me
01:28:21	that Jack Reed died.
01:28:23	You can imagine how...
01:28:30	How I felt.
01:28:35	I'd forgotten all about them.
01:28:37	Were they socialists?
01:28:41	Many of them were idealists.
01:28:45	You know,
01:28:50	I don't know what the outside world
01:28:54	but they were a couple.
01:28:56	I mean, you always spoke
01:29:02	He was just a man in the prime of life.
01:29:06	I don't even know.
01:29:10	They probably didn't have any children,
01:29:13	he and Louise.
01:29:17	Again, you can't tell,
01:29:21	whether they will carry on
01:29:28	Why did he do it?
01:29:31	Well, it's impossible to say
01:29:34	why Edison invented,
01:29:35	or why Galli-Curci sang...
01:29:39	He was definitely a stirrer-up of people.
01:29:44	That was his field.
01:29:47	That's what he came to do, apparently.
01:29:51	He's well-known amongst a few,
01:29:56	They don't know who in heck he is.
01:30:00	I look for myself to die any day.
01:30:09	He was asked by Lenin,
01:30:12	He said, "Yes."
01:30:13	And Lenin said,
01:30:17	And Reed said, "Yes."
01:30:21	Of course,
01:30:26	Everybody wants to live.
01:30:31	I don't remember his exact words,
01:30:34	but the meaning was
01:30:37	that grand things are ahead,
01:30:43	worth living and worth dying for.
01:30:48	He himself said that.
