| 00:01:51 |
Okay, let's go for a take |
| 00:01:53 |
Get ready to carry her forward |
| 00:01:56 |
Okay? Is sound ready? |
| 00:01:58 |
Ready |
| 00:01:58 |
Camera ready? |
| 00:01:59 |
All set, director |
| 00:02:00 |
Then let's go for it |
| 00:02:02 |
Scene 3, Shot 1, Take 2 |
| 00:02:04 |
Action! |
| 00:02:06 |
Excuse me... |
| 00:02:07 |
Sorry! |
| 00:02:08 |
I'm so sorry to be late, director |
| 00:02:09 |
Cut! |
| 00:02:11 |
I'll be ready in a moment, sorry |
| 00:02:12 |
Producer, deal with this |
| 00:02:13 |
Hey, untangle the wires for me! Sorry... |
| 00:02:15 |
Xiao Tang... |
| 00:02:16 |
Sorry I'm late, Miss Lieh |
| 00:02:18 |
I'm really sorry, I'll be ready in a moment |
| 00:02:19 |
Sorry! |
| 00:02:20 |
What's wrong with you? |
| 00:02:22 |
You're not our sound recordist any more |
| 00:02:27 |
Didn't I tell you last time? |
| 00:02:28 |
Kun's doing the job now |
| 00:02:36 |
Sorry... I forgot |
| 00:02:38 |
Excuse me... |
| 00:02:40 |
Excuse me |
| 00:02:45 |
Director, I'm really sorry |
| 00:02:48 |
Excuse me |
| 00:02:51 |
Miss Lieh, I'm sorry |
| 00:02:53 |
You really have to pull yourself together |
| 00:05:04 |
Wait... |
| 00:05:35 |
Don't worry, I'm not a cop |
| 00:05:51 |
The money we agreed on... |
| 00:06:00 |
And here's another 3,000 |
| 00:06:04 |
Let's have some fun |
| 00:06:06 |
Let's be clear, I don't do kinky |
| 00:06:10 |
Relax, it's just a little game |
| 00:06:16 |
Don't be scared |
| 00:06:22 |
What's your name? |
| 00:06:24 |
Meng-Meng |
| 00:06:25 |
Meng-Meng |
| 00:06:27 |
You seem to be afraid of cops |
| 00:06:30 |
I'm not afraid, they just annoy me |
| 00:06:33 |
Annoy you? |
| 00:06:37 |
That's good |
| 00:06:40 |
That's very good |
| 00:06:44 |
Ever heard of role-playing therapy? |
| 00:06:47 |
What kind of play is that? |
| 00:06:51 |
Never mind |
| 00:06:54 |
Now you're a cop... and I'm you |
| 00:07:00 |
What? |
| 00:07:03 |
Now we're going to try some role-playing |
| 00:07:05 |
You play a cop and I play you |
| 00:07:08 |
What the hell? Are you a masochist? |
| 00:07:10 |
Has any cop treated you badly? |
| 00:07:12 |
No, no, but you must have been! |
| 00:07:14 |
Then what are you afraid of? |
| 00:07:15 |
I'm not afraid, I just... |
| 00:07:20 |
...I just don't do that stuff |
| 00:07:25 |
It's simple |
| 00:07:26 |
Just play the part of some bad cop |
| 00:07:29 |
you've met |
| 00:07:38 |
I don't know how |
| 00:07:40 |
It's very easy, actually |
| 00:07:42 |
Watch me... |
| 00:07:48 |
Now... |
| 00:07:54 |
...I'm you |
| 00:08:07 |
Fuck off... I'm not that stupid |
| 00:08:11 |
Don't do that, Mr Cop |
| 00:08:17 |
Oh! What's that hard thing? |
| 00:08:21 |
What hard thing? |
| 00:08:24 |
What? |
| 00:08:24 |
This one! |
| 00:08:26 |
You fucking cunt! |
| 00:08:27 |
I'll arrest you if you keep talking shit |
| 00:08:30 |
I'm so scared, Mr Cop |
| 00:08:31 |
Don't scare me like that |
| 00:08:33 |
I'm just a delicate girl |
| 00:08:35 |
Not tough like you men |
| 00:08:38 |
One look at us and you get a hard-on... |
| 00:08:40 |
And when you finish, we have to pay you! |
| 00:08:41 |
You're sick! |
| 00:08:43 |
Well, blowhard, you got that right |
| 00:08:47 |
Fucking smartass, are you? |
| 00:08:49 |
Get down on your belly! |
| 00:08:51 |
On your belly! |
| 00:08:54 |
Don't you know... |
| 00:08:56 |
...a cop is a gangster with a badge! |
| 00:08:58 |
Get the idea now? |
| 00:09:00 |
Now give Mr Cop a good fuck! |
| 00:09:02 |
Oh, Mr Cop! |
| 00:09:03 |
Lift up your ass! |
| 00:09:04 |
You're so bad, Mr Gangster Cop |
| 00:09:05 |
Sluts are there to be fucked, aren't they? |
| 00:09:07 |
Mr Cop! |
| 00:09:10 |
You want to fuck me? |
| 00:09:12 |
Then I want to rape you! |
| 00:09:13 |
That hurts! |
| 00:09:49 |
Hello? |
| 00:09:52 |
Sorry, I can't come today |
| 00:10:01 |
It's okay, your work comes first |
| 00:10:04 |
Have you finished moving in? |
| 00:10:07 |
Need any help? |
| 00:10:10 |
It's done |
| 00:10:13 |
That was quick! Then... |
| 00:10:16 |
...how about a kiss? |
| 00:10:21 |
No |
| 00:10:25 |
I have to get something |
| 00:10:28 |
Your work comes first |
| 00:10:32 |
Then... bye-bye |
| 00:12:07 |
Didn't you say you were busy? |
| 00:12:10 |
I'm here, ain't I? |
| 00:12:39 |
The first three years with my husband... |
| 00:12:42 |
...we made love almost every day |
| 00:12:44 |
In different places |
| 00:12:46 |
At different times |
| 00:12:48 |
As soon as met... |
| 00:12:50 |
...we couldn't tear ourselves apart |
| 00:12:54 |
Wherever we found ourselves... |
| 00:12:57 |
...we had to do it right away |
| 00:13:01 |
Just like animals in heat |
| 00:13:05 |
But I was never ashamed |
| 00:13:08 |
I just thought... |
| 00:13:10 |
...no other couple in the world... |
| 00:13:12 |
...could match what we had |
| 00:13:16 |
Just as no-one |
| 00:13:17 |
could match us |
| 00:13:22 |
Each time we saw each other... |
| 00:13:24 |
...every cell in our bodies tingled... |
| 00:13:28 |
...longing for each other's cells |
| 00:13:33 |
As if they were crying out... |
| 00:13:35 |
...mouths wide open... |
| 00:13:36 |
"I want, I want, I want" |
| 00:13:45 |
That's very good |
| 00:13:51 |
So what's the problem? |
| 00:13:57 |
Now it's different, isn't it? |
| 00:14:02 |
You can't imagine your husband... |
| 00:14:04 |
...making love to another woman |
| 00:14:11 |
Learning that he's having an affair... |
| 00:14:17 |
...has totally destroyed you |
| 00:14:21 |
How did you know? |
| 00:14:26 |
The love that thrilled you fell apart |
| 00:14:30 |
Your trust in the man you trusted most |
| 00:14:34 |
It started a chain reaction |
| 00:14:37 |
Your belief system fell apart |
| 00:14:39 |
Your philosophy fell apart |
| 00:14:41 |
The meaning of life fell apart |
| 00:14:42 |
Your very self fell apart... |
| 00:14:43 |
...into pieces |
| 00:14:45 |
You panic |
| 00:14:48 |
But no matter how hard you try... |
| 00:14:48 |
...you can't put the pieces back together |
| 00:14:52 |
Every day you ask yourself... |
| 00:14:54 |
"What's going on? What's going on?" |
| 00:14:55 |
"How can this be happening? |
| 00:14:58 |
Every day you recall every last detail |
| 00:15:00 |
of your lovemaking |
| 00:15:02 |
Every position |
| 00:15:04 |
Every one of his caresses |
| 00:15:05 |
Every angle he twisted your body |
| 00:15:09 |
Every one of your cries of ecstasy |
| 00:15:15 |
All your orgasmic pleas to stop |
| 00:15:21 |
And then the painful thoughts kick in |
| 00:15:23 |
How can he do the same things |
| 00:15:26 |
with another woman? |
| 00:15:34 |
You imagine your husband going to her |
| 00:15:35 |
And right after she opens the door... |
| 00:15:38 |
...how he pulls up her skirt |
| 00:15:39 |
pulls down her panties... |
| 00:15:42 |
...tells her to lift up her ass |
| 00:15:44 |
All the things he liked to do to you |
| 00:15:48 |
You imagine them fucking in the open, |
| 00:15:51 |
On the staircase of some building |
| 00:15:53 |
In your husband's car... |
| 00:15:55 |
...randomly parked |
| 00:15:56 |
somewhere in Taipei |
| 00:15:58 |
Or maybe your husband's driving... |
| 00:15:59 |
...and she's going up and down |
| 00:16:02 |
You imagine her groaning, panting, begging |
| 00:16:04 |
You imagine him saying to her... |
| 00:16:05 |
"I love fucking you" |
| 00:16:06 |
"I want to fuck you to death" |
| 00:16:15 |
All of those words which you thought... |
| 00:16:17 |
...he could only say to you |
| 00:16:21 |
It's just as if the two of them... |
| 00:16:24 |
...are giving their selves to each other |
| 00:16:25 |
Falling asleep in each other's arms |
| 00:16:28 |
All of this |
| 00:16:29 |
keeps playing in your mind |
| 00:16:35 |
It's freaking you out |
| 00:16:42 |
You're almost going insane |
| 00:16:46 |
Day after day |
| 00:16:48 |
after day |
| 00:16:50 |
after day |
| 00:16:52 |
Every day you cry so hard you can't sleep |
| 00:16:56 |
And in the morning you wake up |
| 00:16:58 |
You sit up from a sleeping position... |
| 00:17:04 |
Your mouth is dry... |
| 00:17:06 |
But you don't know what you're looking for |
| 00:17:08 |
Still, you understand very clearly... |
| 00:17:11 |
...that you're gone |
| 00:17:15 |
You no longer exist |
| 00:17:22 |
You don't have the slightest sense |
| 00:17:26 |
You panic... panic... |
| 00:17:29 |
Panic |
| 00:17:40 |
Without knowing it, you're in tears |
| 00:17:44 |
You can't stop crying |
| 00:17:47 |
You just |
| 00:17:50 |
can't stop |
| 00:17:58 |
What should I do? |
| 00:22:03 |
"Gensheng Road, Taidong City" |
| 00:22:30 |
Is this for the previous tenant? |
| 00:22:38 |
Miss Tseng? |
| 00:22:41 |
She lives in 402 |
| 00:22:44 |
No, I've just moved in there |
| 00:22:46 |
She was there before me |
| 00:22:50 |
Number 538, Apartment 402 |
| 00:22:52 |
Let me check |
| 00:22:57 |
Oh, you're Miss Wu... Wu Ruoyun |
| 00:23:00 |
She's already moved out |
| 00:23:03 |
But she keeps getting letters |
| 00:23:05 |
Can I leave them here with you? |
| 00:23:07 |
Then she can pick them up when she |
| 00:23:10 |
I can't do anything about that |
| 00:23:14 |
Well then... |
| 00:23:17 |
Sorry |
| 00:23:18 |
Never mind |
| 00:23:19 |
Sorry, sorry... |
| 00:24:13 |
"Miss Tseng Yazhu" |
| 00:26:36 |
This is the fourth one already |
| 00:26:40 |
There's no sender's address |
| 00:26:44 |
The stamps caught my eye |
| 00:26:46 |
They're all mailed from the East coast |
| 00:26:48 |
All from different places |
| 00:27:10 |
Hello? |
| 00:27:13 |
In a meeting |
| 00:27:18 |
It wasn't planned... |
| 00:27:25 |
I'm can't do dinner |
| 00:27:28 |
How about a drink? |
| 00:27:32 |
How about a drink and a movie? |
| 00:27:37 |
There are people here |
| 00:27:45 |
I love you |
| 00:27:49 |
I love you |
| 00:27:53 |
I love you |
| 00:27:57 |
I don't know yet |
| 00:28:05 |
I'll be through here soon, okay? |
| 00:28:12 |
It's a foreign client |
| 00:28:18 |
I'll finish here soon, okay? |
| 00:28:24 |
Fine, let's talk when I'm back |
| 00:28:39 |
Here's another brand |
| 00:28:39 |
See if this is what you want |
| 00:28:50 |
This ones |
| 00:28:51 |
It plays cassette tapes? |
| 00:28:53 |
Yes, yes, if it's a tape, it will play it |
| 00:28:57 |
But I don't recommend it |
| 00:28:58 |
Seriously |
| 00:28:59 |
Everyone uses MP3 now |
| 00:29:00 |
This kind of thing is obsolete |
| 00:29:23 |
Ruoyun... |
| 00:29:24 |
Aren't you an Aquarius? |
| 00:29:26 |
I found this site on the web |
| 00:29:29 |
It says if I'm a Cancer... |
| 00:29:32 |
...and you're an Aquarius... |
| 00:29:34 |
...then the two of us... |
| 00:29:35 |
...are a perfect match! |
| 00:29:36 |
It couldn't be better! |
| 00:29:38 |
100%! |
| 00:30:41 |
Yazhu... |
| 00:30:44 |
Do you remember this place? |
| 00:30:48 |
We once sat here together... |
| 00:30:51 |
...recording the sound of the sea |
| 00:30:56 |
I remember you said that... |
| 00:30:59 |
...you liked that I looked so serious |
| 00:31:04 |
You liked to stand beside me, |
| 00:31:08 |
...imagining all the awesome sounds... |
| 00:31:11 |
...I was capturing with my boom mike |
| 00:31:16 |
You liked my sensitivity to sound |
| 00:31:23 |
It was right here... |
| 00:31:25 |
...that we made the wish together |
| 00:31:29 |
To travel around the country... |
| 00:31:31 |
...recording sounds from every corner |
| 00:31:36 |
And it was you who came up with the title |
| 00:31:40 |
It was... |
| 00:31:42 |
"The Sounds of Formosa" |
| 00:32:45 |
What's inside it? |
| 00:32:46 |

| 00:42:04 |
What kind of sounds? |
| 00:42:06 |
You might not find them interesting |
| 00:42:07 |
It depends |
| 00:42:08 |
I think they are |
| 00:42:09 |
That's okay, go on |
| 00:42:11 |
There's lots of squirrels there |
| 00:42:14 |
In the afternoon... |
| 00:42:16 |
...you can hear them courting |
| 00:42:19 |
"Gagaga!" |
| 00:42:21 |
Very noisy, but funny to hear! |
| 00:42:23 |
Really |
| 00:42:24 |
Go take a look |
| 00:42:25 |
Okay |
| 00:43:20 |
Should I go to the Karaoke with him tonight? |
| 00:43:22 |
With who? |
| 00:43:24 |
The guy I was just talking about! |
| 00:43:27 |
The funny guy who sang with me yesterday |
| 00:43:32 |
Will you come too? |
| 00:43:33 |
Sure |
| 00:43:34 |
We can all go together |
| 00:43:37 |
Good |
| 00:43:39 |
We can scam him for some cash |
| 00:43:44 |
Are you sure? He's a tourist |
| 00:43:46 |
Why not? |
| 00:43:47 |
Tourists are asking to be scammed! |
| 00:43:51 |
Anyhow... |
| 00:43:52 |
Forget about going to Karaoke |
| 00:43:55 |
Go straight to his room |
| 00:43:58 |
We'll need a signal |
| 00:44:00 |
Something to tell us when to burst in |
| 00:44:02 |
...a signal |
| 00:44:08 |
Go straight to his room |
| 00:44:14 |
Forget about going to Karaoke |
| 00:44:18 |
Go straight to his room |
| 00:44:21 |
Just meet up with him in his room? |
| 00:44:30 |
Ma'am... |
| 00:44:33 |
Young man |
| 00:44:33 |
Excuse me... |
| 00:44:34 |
Did you get that sound? |
| 00:44:36 |
Which sound? |
| 00:44:37 |
The sound of the squirrels courting |
| 00:44:39 |
Oh... |
| 00:44:42 |
Yes, I did |
| 00:44:44 |
Great! |
| 00:44:45 |
Thanks |
| 00:44:45 |
Ma'am, I'm looking for the guest in Room 252 |
| 00:44:47 |
One moment, let me see... |
| 00:44:50 |
He's still out |
| 00:44:52 |
Really? |
| 00:44:53 |
Thank you |
| 00:44:54 |
You're welcome |
| 00:45:00 |
Hello... |
| 00:45:01 |
He's not here |
| 00:45:50 |
I'll play you that "Gagaga" sound |
| 00:45:52 |
Good |
| 00:46:00 |
Wait a minute... |
| 00:46:01 |
Hey... |
| 00:46:02 |
Have you heard the sound of squirrels courting? |
| 00:46:06 |
What's it like? |
| 00:46:07 |
Listen carefully... |
| 00:46:08 |
"Gagaga" |
| 00:46:11 |
"Gagaga" |
| 00:46:12 |
That's right! You learn fast... |
| 00:46:22 |
No... |
| 00:46:24 |
Now you're a squirrel |
| 00:46:25 |
To get me undressed, you have to |
| 00:46:32 |
Wow! |
| 00:46:36 |
Of all the people I've met... |
| 00:46:38 |
...you're the most talented |
| 00:46:42 |
Make it loud! |
| 00:46:45 |
"Gagaga" |
| 00:46:47 |
Louder |
| 00:46:50 |
"Gagaga!" |
| 00:46:52 |
Still louder |
| 00:47:00 |
"Gagaga!" |
| 00:47:03 |
What the fuck are you two doing? |
| 00:47:03 |
You are so screwed! |
| 00:47:05 |
You cheat on me? |
| 00:47:07 |
I should use you like a whore! |
| 00:47:10 |
Having fun with my wife? |
| 00:47:13 |
You're in big fucking trouble! |
| 00:47:16 |
Who are you? |
| 00:47:17 |
I'm your fucking father! |
| 00:47:20 |
Ladies and gentlemen... |
| 00:47:23 |
I know what you're up to |
| 00:47:25 |
But don't go on with this |
| 00:47:29 |
How much should we take him for? |
| 00:47:33 |
Half a million |
| 00:47:34 |
Too little... a million |
| 00:47:37 |
I think one and a half million |
| 00:47:39 |
Half a million each |
| 00:47:41 |
Ah Bin... |
| 00:47:42 |
When we burst in... |
| 00:47:43 |
...you take the pictures |
| 00:47:45 |
Okay? |
| 00:47:45 |
Yeah |
| 00:47:47 |
Got a camera? |
| 00:47:48 |
My cellphone will do |
| 00:47:50 |
How is this possible? |
| 00:47:52 |
What's going on? |
| 00:48:01 |
Hurry, grab the stuff, run! |
| 00:48:02 |
Quick! |
| 00:48:18 |
Hey! |
| 00:48:21 |
Are you alright? |
| 00:48:28 |
Hey! |
| 00:48:30 |
What are you doing? |
| 00:48:30 |
I saved your ass! |
| 00:50:28 |
What do you do for a living? |
| 00:50:31 |
You don't have to get back to work? |
| 00:50:36 |
If I tell you, you won't believe me |
| 00:50:43 |
I... |
| 00:50:45 |
...deal drugs |
| 00:50:52 |
Never... |
| 00:50:54 |
The drugs I deal, you can't see |
| 00:50:57 |
They anesthetize people's minds |
| 00:51:03 |
Sounds complicated |
| 00:51:09 |
What the hell does that mean? |
| 00:51:25 |
You are seriously weird |
| 00:51:53 |
Whatever sound you want... |
| 00:51:55 |
...I can make it for you |
| 00:52:23 |
"La la la" |
| 00:52:25 |
"Hotline you and me" |
| 00:52:28 |
"Of all the people I've met..." |
| 00:52:29 |
"...you're the most talented" |
| 00:52:35 |
"Hey!" |
| 00:52:37 |
"I came to save your ass!" |
| 00:54:07 |
Xiao Tang! |
| 00:54:08 |
We'll launch |
| 00:54:09 |
a big media campaign |
| 00:54:12 |
In magazines... |
| 00:54:13 |
...newspapers, on buses, on the internet... |
| 00:54:15 |
All at the same time! |
| 00:54:19 |
I must also thank you... |
| 00:54:21 |
...for the successful press conference |
| 00:54:26 |
The clients are very satisfied |
| 00:54:28 |
You're our man for the next press release |
| 00:54:31 |
I'll treat you to dinner sometime |
| 00:54:33 |
French, Indian... whatever you like |
| 00:54:36 |
Anything you want |
| 00:54:57 |
Of course, there's plenty of time... |
| 00:56:06 |
Don't think that sending her those tapes... |
| 00:56:09 |
...will make her come back to you |
| 00:56:13 |
Just regard this trip... |
| 00:56:15 |
...as a ceremony of self-redemption |
| 00:56:18 |
Don't expect too much |
| 00:56:26 |
Don't think you know everything |
| 00:57:15 |
You have a cellphone? |
| 00:57:15 |
Can I borrow it? |
| 00:57:45 |
Hello? |
| 00:57:48 |
Hello |
| 00:57:50 |
It's me |
| 00:57:53 |
Ah Tsai? |
| 00:57:56 |
Where are you? |
| 00:58:01 |
I'm in... |
| 00:58:03 |
...Taidong |
| 00:58:06 |
What the hell are you doing there? |
| 00:58:14 |
That's typical, |
| 00:58:15 |
you're so irresponsible |
| 00:58:17 |
You take off without a word |
| 00:58:18 |
Many people are worrying about you! |
| 00:58:22 |
You just think about yourself |
| 00:58:24 |
So self-centered! |
| 00:58:39 |
Who is it? |
| 00:58:41 |
It's me |
| 00:58:46 |
Can I come in? |
| 00:58:47 |
It's very late |
| 00:58:52 |
I'd like to sleep here tonight |
| 00:58:55 |
Is that okay? |
| 00:58:56 |
No, not really |
| 00:59:18 |
I saw him |
| 00:59:21 |
Your boyfriend? |
| 00:59:28 |
We're not even divorced yet |
| 00:59:29 |
Ah Tsai... |
| 00:59:50 |
Do you think the Milky Way has a sound? |
| 00:59:58 |
I've never heard that idea before |
| 01:00:04 |
That's because you've never listened |
| 01:00:08 |
Really? |
| 01:00:22 |
No, it doesn't |
| 01:00:28 |
There's no sound there |
| 01:00:36 |
You have to be in tune with it |
| 01:00:40 |
You know? |
| 01:00:43 |
Silly... |
| 01:04:17 |
October 14th, 2006 |
| 01:04:18 |
Changbing... The sound of a windbreak forest |
| 01:04:31 |
October 24th, 2006 |
| 01:04:36 |
Changbing... The sound of a windbreak forest |
| 01:04:39 |
I've found it |
| 01:04:53 |
October 16th, 2006 |
| 01:04:56 |
Chenggong... The sound of a fish auction |
| 01:05:42 |
October 26th, 2006 |
| 01:05:44 |
Chenggong... Site of the fish auction |
| 01:05:49 |
I've found it |
| 01:07:45 |
Madam |
| 01:07:46 |
Hey |
| 01:07:47 |
Sorry to bother you |
| 01:07:49 |
Please listen to this sound |
| 01:07:51 |
Listen to what? |
| 01:07:53 |
It's a tape |
| 01:07:54 |
Have a listen to see |
| 01:07:59 |
They're aboriginal people |
| 01:08:00 |
They sound like old folk and children |
| 01:08:07 |
There are so many windbreak forests |
| 01:08:09 |
They sound all the same |
| 01:08:14 |
But I have been to Changbing |
| 01:08:16 |
I think it's the same sound |
| 01:08:18 |
Miss |
| 01:08:22 |
For no reason really |
| 01:08:23 |
I just want to go to... |
| 01:08:24 |
...the place where that sound comes from |
| 01:08:26 |
Miss, why do you want to feel it? |
| 01:08:30 |
Just to feel it |
| 01:08:32 |
What's the point of that? |
| 01:08:39 |
It's too vague |
| 01:08:40 |
It's impossible to find a place just its sound |
| 01:09:25 |
Madam |
| 01:09:27 |
This envelope... |
| 01:09:28 |
Is it yours? |
| 01:09:31 |
Yes, it's ours |
| 01:09:34 |
Then do you remember... |
| 01:09:35 |
...a sound recordist staying here before? |
| 01:09:37 |
A sound recordist? |
| 01:09:40 |
Was he holding something very big... |
| 01:09:42 |
...like a big microphone. |
| 01:09:43 |
Very furry at the front |
| 01:09:45 |
I guess so |
| 01:09:46 |
He said he came to record the... |
| 01:09:47 |
...the sounds of Taiwan |
| 01:09:51 |
What kind of person was he? |
| 01:09:52 |
He was very nice. |
| 01:09:54 |
Pleasant talking, nice attitude |
| 01:09:59 |
What did he look like? |
| 01:10:01 |
Look like... |
| 01:10:02 |
He was gentle looking, thin... |
| 01:10:06 |
...very handsome, easy going |
| 01:10:11 |
Are you his ... |
| 01:10:12 |
Why are you asking so many questions? |
| 01:10:14 |
We are friends |
| 01:10:16 |
Really? |
| 01:10:17 |
If you are his friend... |
| 01:10:19 |
...how come you don't know what he looks like? |
| 01:10:25 |
Well... |
| 01:10:29 |
Excuse me |
| 01:12:32 |
I'd been with Yazhu for five years |
| 01:12:38 |
From the time I graduated... |
| 01:12:40 |
...right through my military service... |
| 01:12:42 |
...until I became a sound recordist |
| 01:12:47 |
I thought we were meant for each other |
| 01:12:53 |
When I was with her... |
| 01:12:56 |
...I felt peaceful and happy |
| 01:13:01 |
I thought she felt the same way |
| 01:13:05 |
Maybe she did, once |
| 01:13:10 |
I really loved her very much |
| 01:13:14 |
And I really needed her too |
| 01:13:19 |
There were many things that I understood... |
| 01:13:22 |
...only after we broke up |
| 01:13:29 |
Actually she broke up with me |
| 01:13:35 |
That night, |
| 01:13:37 |
as usual... |
| 01:13:38 |
...I called her before going to sleep |
| 01:13:42 |
We both had jobs by then |
| 01:13:45 |
So we didn't meet so often |
| 01:13:48 |
We were chatting away... |
| 01:13:51 |
...when she suddenly said... |
| 01:13:54 |
"Don't you think |
| 01:13:56 |
we both need a change?" |
| 01:14:00 |
I thought she was kidding |
| 01:14:03 |
So I tried to laugh it off |
| 01:14:08 |
But she went on... |
| 01:14:13 |
"I want to break up with you" |
| 01:14:15 |
"I'm serious" |
| 01:14:21 |
Yazhu really wanted to stop seeing me |
| 01:14:25 |
She wasn't joking |
| 01:14:38 |
I'd always thought our world was stable |
| 01:14:43 |
With her... |
| 01:14:46 |
...I could take |
| 01:14:50 |
all the pressures |
| 01:14:53 |
Difficulties... |
| 01:14:55 |
Setbacks... |
| 01:14:58 |
Depressions |
| 01:15:00 |
Even pains |
| 01:15:05 |
Because I knew... |
| 01:15:07 |
...with her understanding... |
| 01:15:11 |
...just her being there... |
| 01:15:16 |
...she'd support me |
| 01:15:20 |
She'd believe in me |
| 01:15:22 |
She'd give me strength |
| 01:15:26 |
And that would be enough |
| 01:15:35 |
Since the break-up, |
| 01:15:39 |
my life has been a mess |
| 01:15:48 |
Why can't I remember |
| 01:15:50 |
all the details? |
| 01:15:55 |
I'm thinking of the months before... |
| 01:16:02 |
...I couldn't accept... |
| 01:16:06 |
...that we'd seen |
| 01:16:08 |
our last movie together |
| 01:16:13 |
That we'd slept in each other's arms... |
| 01:16:16 |
...for the last time |
| 01:16:21 |
That we'd had a meal together... |
| 01:16:22 |
...for the last time |
| 01:16:34 |
There were so many things we hadn't |
| 01:16:41 |
We hadn't been abroad together |
| 01:16:46 |
We hadn't seen snow together |
| 01:16:53 |
We hadn't made |
| 01:16:54 |
"Sounds of Formosa" together |
| 01:17:10 |
Now you are Yazhu |
| 01:17:14 |
I am you |
| 01:17:29 |
I expected... |
| 01:17:33 |
...to feel sad... |
| 01:17:37 |
...after the break-up |
| 01:17:40 |
I'd be heart-broken |
| 01:17:44 |
But I thought... |
| 01:17:48 |
...after the pain... |
| 01:17:51 |
...life would go on |
| 01:17:57 |
My life would still move forward |
| 01:18:09 |
I've realized only slowly... |
| 01:18:14 |
...that since you left me... |
| 01:18:20 |
...I don't know how to go on living... |
| 01:18:24 |
...without you |
| 01:18:40 |
You have to be strong |
| 01:18:45 |
You know? |
| 01:18:47 |
Silly... |
| 01:18:51 |
I'm also on my own |
| 01:18:55 |
I have to take care of myself too |
| 01:19:01 |
If you truly love me... |
| 01:19:06 |
...you have to remember what I told you |
| 01:19:10 |
Be good |
| 01:19:14 |
Don't make me worry |
| 01:19:18 |
Don't make me sad |
| 01:19:22 |
You got that? |
| 01:20:48 |
I will |
| 01:20:51 |
I'll be good |
| 01:20:54 |
I'll be good |
| 01:21:27 |
"Girl, your boyfriends..." |
| 01:21:31 |
"...are all leading lights" |
| 01:21:35 |
"Ugly guys like us..." |
| 01:21:38 |
"...don't deserve your love" |
| 01:21:43 |
"There's no place for me in your dreams" |
| 01:21:47 |
"It drives me to drink every day!" |
| 01:21:51 |
"My dearest girl..." |
| 01:21:55 |
"...goodbye from the bottom of my heart" |
| 01:22:00 |
"How can I forget you?" |
| 01:22:04 |
"Grandpa, Grandma..." |
| 01:22:06 |
"What am I to do?" |
| 01:22:08 |
"How will I ever forget her?" |
| 01:22:13 |
Miss! |
| 01:22:14 |
Sing with us! |
| 01:22:15 |
I can't sing |
| 01:22:17 |
It doesn't matter |
| 01:22:18 |
Just let it out |
| 01:22:25 |
"If you don't believe..." |
| 01:22:27 |
"...God knows" |
| 01:22:29 |
"Believe it or not..." |
| 01:22:31 |
What's your name? |
| 01:22:32 |
Ruoyun |
| 01:22:33 |
"Ruoyun, Ruoyun..." |
| 01:22:35 |
"There's no true love" |
| 01:22:42 |
Open your mind! |
| 01:22:43 |
Okay |
| 01:22:43 |
Just sing along, alright? |
| 01:22:46 |
Then, when I sing... |
| 01:22:48 |
...you follow |
| 01:22:48 |
Okay |
| 01:22:49 |
Go for it |
| 01:23:07 |
Ruoyun! |
| 01:23:15 |
Ruoyun! |
| 01:23:23 |
Now you can sing! |
| 01:23:59 |
Take care! |
| 01:24:03 |
Goodbye! |
| 01:24:05 |
Goodbye! |
| 01:24:07 |
Take care! |
| 01:24:08 |
Goodbye! |
| 01:25:45 |
Hey... |
| 01:25:48 |
What about you? |
| 01:25:53 |
What happened between you and your wife? |
| 01:26:08 |
And what's that wedding invitation in |
| 01:26:15 |
The girl I liked in college got married here |
| 01:26:27 |
So you came for a wedding in Taidong |
| 01:26:41 |
Hey... |
| 01:26:43 |
This was three years ago |

I didn't go to her wedding three years ago |
| 01:26:54 |
So you're three years late |
| 01:26:55 |
The wedding's probably over by now |
| 01:27:02 |
It was only after she got married... |
| 01:27:06 |
...that I started to miss her |
| 01:27:09 |
I've been wondering whether or not... |
| 01:27:12 |
...she's been happy since then |
| 01:27:16 |
I haven't seen her in ten years |
| 01:27:22 |
Surely it hasn't taken you ten years... |
| 01:27:24 |
...to find out she's your real soulmate? |
| 01:27:29 |
Very possibly |
| 01:27:32 |
But she's already married |
| 01:27:35 |
So even you shrinks |
| 01:27:36 |
have shitty storylines! |
| 01:27:42 |
Shitty storylines indeed |
| 01:28:03 |
Gensheng Road... 577 |
| 01:28:32 |
What number is it? |
| 01:29:07 |
We're there |
| 01:29:22 |
How can that be? |
| 01:29:24 |
Where's 591? |
| 01:29:50 |
Sir... |
| 01:29:51 |
Excuse me |
| 01:29:53 |
Where's 591, Gensheng Road? |
| 01:29:56 |
591? |
| 01:29:57 |
You're in 589 here... |
| 01:30:00 |
...but that's 595 over there |
| 01:30:02 |
Why is there no 591? |
| 01:30:04 |
Well... |
| 01:30:05 |
Some houses were demolished a while back |
| 01:30:08 |
It's an alley now |
| 01:30:10 |
So you might not find it |
| 01:30:12 |
Oh, I see |
| 01:30:13 |
So there's no longer a 591 |
| 01:30:16 |
That's right |
| 01:30:18 |
Do you know of a woman |
| 01:30:20 |
who got married there three years ago? |
| 01:30:23 |
Was there? |
| 01:30:26 |
In her thirties |
| 01:30:28 |
160 cm tall |
| 01:30:30 |
Good-looking |
| 01:30:32 |
Light-skinned and thin |
| 01:30:35 |
I really don't know |
| 01:30:36 |
No-one comes to mind |
| 01:30:43 |
You're sure it was in Taidong? |
| 01:31:52 |
You go ahead |
| 01:32:07 |
Then take care of yourself |
| 01:32:18 |
Bye bye |
| 01:36:32 |
I want to talk to you so much |
| 01:36:39 |
So why couldn't I do it? |
| 01:36:47 |
Why can't you care more about me? |
| 01:36:53 |
Why don't you ever know |
| 01:36:54 |
what I need? |
| 01:37:03 |
I'm so tired |
| 01:37:12 |
Do you know... |
| 01:37:17 |
However much physical contact we have... |
| 01:37:21 |
...it doesn't fill the emptiness in my heart |
| 01:37:35 |
We never really get to where |
| 01:37:40 |
I want to go |
| 01:37:53 |
Now I'm sitting by the sea |
| 01:37:58 |
Recording the words I want to say to you |
| 01:38:05 |
But you won't hear them |
| 01:38:15 |
November 2nd, 2006 |
| 01:38:22 |
Do you know where I am? |
| 01:38:31 |
Do you know where I am? |

"Southern Most Point" |
| 01:41:40 |
Yazhu... |
| 01:41:43 |
Listen... |
| 01:41:47 |
This is the sound of the southernmost point |
| 01:41:55 |
There's still a lot I'd like to say to you |
| 01:42:00 |
But... |
| 01:42:03 |
I think... |
| 01:42:06 |
I will end... |
| 01:42:08 |
...the recording of "Sounds of Formosa" here |
| 01:49:52 |
It takes the most distant course |
| 01:49:59 |
To come nearest to yourself |
| 01:50:05 |
And the training is at its most intricate |
| 01:50:12 |
When it leads to the utter simplicity of a tune. |
| 01:50:21 |
We have to knock at every alien door |
| 01:50:27 |
To finally come to our own |
| 01:50:32 |
To find ourselves |
| 01:50:37 |
It takes the most distant course |
| 01:50:43 |
To come nearest to yourself, |
| 01:50:50 |
Come, come, come... |
| 01:51:03 |
It takes the most distant course |
| 01:51:09 |
To arrive at the place where one started |
| 01:51:15 |
It is the final climb |
| 01:51:21 |
To arrive at absolute pastoral beauty |
| 01:51:28 |
We have to go through each illusory dream |
| 01:51:35 |
To finally come to our own door, |
| 01:51:40 |
To our own field |
| 01:51:44 |
It takes the most distant course |
| 01:51:50 |
To come nearest to yourself. |
| 01:51:56 |
It takes the most distant course |
| 01:52:02 |
To arrive at the place one misses most. |
