Ghost Writer The
|
00:00:57 |
Come on! |
00:02:22 |
But you realize |
00:02:24 |
- You voted for him, didn't you? |
00:02:27 |
Everyone voted for him. |
00:02:30 |
Well, there you go. |
00:02:32 |
Look, it's a new ghostwriter he needs, |
00:02:37 |
He was paid $10 million for these memoirs, |
00:02:40 |
but rumor has it |
00:02:43 |
Rhinehart's lending him his house |
00:02:46 |
and the pressure |
00:02:49 |
Pathologist said his blood was, |
00:02:51 |
You mean he drowned by accident? |
00:02:54 |
Accident, suicide, who cares? |
00:02:57 |
Well, that's encouraging. |
00:03:00 |
Who is this McAra? |
00:03:01 |
Yeah. He was some kind of aide to Lang |
00:03:05 |
so don't admit that you haven't. |
00:03:11 |
I don't know, Rick. |
00:03:16 |
This is a great opportunity for you. |
00:03:19 |
Plus the money is good. Kids won't starve. |
00:03:21 |
- I don't have any kids. |
00:03:37 |
Roy. |
00:03:43 |
Who're you expecting to bomb you, |
00:03:44 |
We're publishing Lang's memoirs. |
00:03:46 |
That's enough to make us a target, |
00:03:49 |
Thank you. |
00:04:00 |
- How many have you seen? |
00:04:11 |
I must be honest. |
00:04:13 |
I don't think you're the right man |
00:04:15 |
Then it's a good job |
00:04:19 |
John Maddox, chief executive |
00:04:22 |
Sir. |
00:04:25 |
Sidney Kroll, |
00:04:27 |
Mr. Kroll. |
00:04:28 |
And Nick Ricardelli I believe you know. |
00:04:32 |
All right, Rick. |
00:04:37 |
All right, I gather from Rick |
00:04:41 |
Perhaps you can enlighten us |
00:04:43 |
and tell us what exactly |
00:04:46 |
Nothing. |
00:04:50 |
No, I'm not gonna pretend |
00:04:52 |
You have my CV. |
00:04:53 |
His last effort was |
00:04:57 |
I Came, I Sawed, I Conquered. |
00:04:59 |
Yeah, and it went straight |
00:05:02 |
After you turned it down, Roy. |
00:05:05 |
Look, I don't read political memoirs. |
00:05:10 |
And I gather you've spent |
00:05:14 |
How much of that are you gonna see back? |
00:05:16 |
Two? Three? |
00:05:18 |
It's bad news for your shareholders. |
00:05:21 |
And it's worse news |
00:05:24 |
Adam Lang, he wants a place in history, |
00:05:29 |
Oh, please! |
00:05:30 |
It's because I know nothing about politics |
00:05:32 |
that I'll ask the questions that get |
00:05:36 |
And that is what sells autobiographies. |
00:05:39 |
Heart. |
00:05:42 |
Wow! That's nicely done. |
00:05:45 |
- What utter balls. |
00:05:47 |
John, of course. |
00:05:51 |
His autobiography is gonna be |
00:05:54 |
Yeah, well, I got warehouses filled with |
00:05:56 |
world-publishing events |
00:06:01 |
Sid? |
00:06:02 |
Adam is obviously still very upset |
00:06:06 |
He was irreplaceable. |
00:06:12 |
Adam can certainly appreciate the benefits |
00:06:16 |
In the end, it's about chemistry. |
00:06:20 |
- Not really. |
00:06:22 |
Actually, I know a good writer |
00:06:27 |
Okay, maybe we could just run over |
00:06:32 |
We need to wrap this up in a month. |
00:06:34 |
A month? |
00:06:35 |
- You want the book in a month? |
00:06:37 |
Yeah, well, it needs a lot of work. |
00:06:40 |
That's why I like your résumé here. |
00:06:45 |
You name it, he ghosts it. |
00:06:48 |
And you're a Brit. |
00:06:50 |
The ghost should be a Brit. |
00:06:51 |
To get the jolly old tone right, right? |
00:06:55 |
- Do you have any family commitments? |
00:06:59 |
Adam is locked into a US lecture tour, |
00:07:01 |
also a fundraising program |
00:07:05 |
It's a month in the States. That's okay. |
00:07:07 |
Couldn't I bring the manuscript back here |
00:07:09 |
I'm afraid not. It's in a secure environment |
00:07:14 |
Only a few people are allowed to handle it. |
00:07:16 |
Sounds more like a bomb than a book. |
00:07:20 |
I will need to see it myself at some point. |
00:07:24 |
Yeah, in theory. |
00:07:30 |
How soon can you get over there? |
00:07:31 |
- He'll fly tonight. |
00:07:33 |
It's okay. |
00:07:42 |
Okay, you're in. |
00:07:44 |
Oh! |
00:07:46 |
- Congratulations. |
00:07:48 |
- Rick. |
00:07:49 |
Actually, I have something here |
00:07:52 |
- you might want to look at. |
00:07:53 |
No, no, no, this isn't Adam's book. |
00:07:56 |
Yeah, perhaps you can let me know |
00:08:00 |
Sure. |
00:08:01 |
Okay, if you're gonna get |
00:08:03 |
we'd better talk contracts with Rick here. |
00:08:05 |
Wanna show our friend to the door? |
00:08:08 |
Roy? |
00:08:11 |
Call you in an hour, buddy. |
00:08:13 |
Hey! |
00:08:15 |
Remember... |
00:08:18 |
Heart. |
00:08:23 |
There's something not quite right |
00:08:27 |
- What? Me, you mean? |
00:08:29 |
And McAra. Suicide? |
00:08:32 |
He didn't strike me as the suicidal type. |
00:08:35 |
Always nice to see you, Roy. |
00:08:40 |
Good luck. |
00:08:54 |
Oh, God. |
00:09:11 |
Thank you. |
00:09:54 |
- Yeah? |
00:09:57 |
- On what? |
00:09:59 |
Yeah, I can hardly believe my luck. |
00:10:01 |
Are you packed? |
00:10:02 |
I just got mugged. |
00:10:05 |
Shit! Are you okay? |
00:10:08 |
Yeah, all they took was the manuscript |
00:10:12 |
What? Why? |
00:10:14 |
I don't know. You tell me. |
00:10:16 |
Are you hurt? |
00:10:17 |
No, I'm fine. I think they must |
00:10:22 |
Why would they do that? |
00:10:24 |
Well, maybe they thought |
00:10:27 |
I knew this whole thing was a bad idea. |
00:10:31 |
You're still okay to fly tonight, right? |
00:10:32 |
For God's sake, Rick, I'm in shock. |
00:10:34 |
Well, here's another shock for you. |
00:10:37 |
For one month's work |
00:10:40 |
Rhinehart Inc. Is willing |
00:10:47 |
Window seat or aisle? |
00:10:49 |
Islam has |
00:10:53 |
We hope to bring you more on that |
00:10:56 |
Meanwhile, former British Prime Minister |
00:11:00 |
According to leaked documents, |
00:11:03 |
the illegal use of British special forces |
00:11:05 |
to seize four suspected al-Qaeda terrorists |
00:11:09 |
and then hand them over |
00:11:13 |
The men, Nasir Ashraf, Marwat Sayed, |
00:11:17 |
all British citizens, were seized in the |
00:11:22 |
All four were allegedly transferred |
00:11:26 |
to a secret location and tortured. |
00:11:28 |
Mr. Ashraf is reported to have died |
00:11:32 |
Such an operation |
00:11:34 |
Yeah? |
00:11:35 |
Heathrow, like you. |
00:11:39 |
Can you see the news? |
00:11:40 |
The Lang story? Yeah, I'm watching it now. |
00:11:42 |
What have you gotten me into? |
00:11:45 |
I got you into a quarter of a million bucks, |
00:11:50 |
They're calling my flight. I gotta go. |
00:11:51 |
Listen, I just realized |
00:11:53 |
Sidney Kroll could have given me |
00:11:55 |
so it would look like |
00:11:58 |
Why the hell would he do that? |
00:12:00 |
I don't know. To use me as a tethered goat? |
00:12:05 |
Get some sleep on the plane. |
00:12:07 |
"A tethered goat." |
00:12:11 |
...and long-term psychological trauma. |
00:12:13 |
In other words, torture. |
00:12:15 |
Hello, sir. |
00:12:16 |
- Have you got the Evening Standard? |
00:12:19 |
Thanks. Thank you. |
00:12:21 |
Hello, madam. |
00:12:22 |
Yes, please. Thank you. |
00:13:53 |
Passport? |
00:15:00 |
This is an absolute scandal! |
00:15:02 |
Amelia Bly. Welcome. |
00:15:04 |
I'm Adam's assistant. |
00:15:05 |
Adam's in New York, unfortunately, |
00:15:09 |
Actually, forget I said that, |
00:15:13 |
Oh, dear. I'm so sorry. |
00:15:16 |
If this isn't a good time, I could go to... |
00:15:18 |
No, no. She's keen to meet you. |
00:15:21 |
- Right. Shall we make a start? |
00:15:25 |
- How was yourjourney? |
00:15:28 |
We're a small team. |
00:15:30 |
This is Alice. |
00:15:31 |
Lucy's traveling with Adam. |
00:15:34 |
We need another pair of hands, but Adam |
00:15:37 |
- They were together so long. |
00:15:40 |
Eight years. |
00:15:42 |
Ah. Poor Number 10. |
00:15:44 |
Before I show you the manuscript, |
00:15:45 |
I need you to sign |
00:15:53 |
Sign here. |
00:15:58 |
And here. |
00:16:13 |
Wow, quite a place. |
00:16:16 |
Don't you get lonely at night? |
00:16:18 |
It's my husband I miss the most. |
00:16:19 |
Are you married? |
00:16:22 |
I can't, sadly. It's far too large. |
00:16:24 |
- It bleeps when I go through airport security. |
00:16:28 |
Here we are. |
00:16:33 |
The manuscript is not to be removed |
00:16:38 |
You have six hours |
00:16:41 |
- Can you finish by then? |
00:16:45 |
I'll ask Dep to bring you up |
00:16:47 |
Thanks. |
00:16:54 |
Have fun. |
00:17:03 |
"Langs are Scottish folk, |
00:17:06 |
"Our name is a derivation of 'long,' |
00:17:11 |
"and it is from north of the border |

Fuck. |

As bad as that? |
00:18:35 |
Oh, hello. |
00:18:37 |
Well? How bad is it? |
00:18:39 |
You haven't read it? |
00:18:41 |
Not all of it. |
00:18:42 |
- Well, let's just say it needs some work. |
00:18:46 |
Well, all the words are there. |
00:18:50 |
Come on. You look like you need a break. |
00:18:57 |
You were my idea. |
00:18:59 |
I was? |
00:19:01 |
You wrote Christy Costello's memoirs, |
00:19:03 |
You read those? |
00:19:05 |
We stayed at his house in Mustique, |
00:19:09 |
The book was beside the bed. |
00:19:10 |
- I'm embarrassed. |
00:19:12 |
It was brilliant, in a horrible sort of way. |
00:19:15 |
How you turned his ramblings |
00:19:21 |
I said to Adam, "Here's the guy |
00:19:27 |
God, I miss home. |
00:19:35 |
It's like being married |
00:19:38 |
- Why don't you go back to London? |
00:19:41 |
There's something not quite right |
00:19:45 |
Amelia told me he was very upset |
00:19:49 |
Oh, she did, did she? |
00:19:50 |
Quite when Mrs. Bly became the expert |
00:19:59 |
Losing Mike was a blow, of course, |
00:20:02 |
but it's not just that. |
00:20:04 |
It's having to relive everything, |
00:20:12 |
Oh, dear. |
00:20:14 |
You must be wondering |
00:20:20 |
Fine, fine. I'll tell him. |
00:20:23 |
They're just about to land. |
00:20:24 |
On Thursday, he's in Chicago. |
00:20:25 |
Actually, I think I'll go and meet him. |
00:20:28 |
Amelia can stay here |
00:20:31 |
Why don't you come, say hello? |
00:20:33 |
Fine. I'll travel in the backup car. |
00:21:26 |
Hi, darling. |
00:21:27 |
- How was New York? |
00:21:29 |
Hi, Barry. Hi, Amelia. |
00:21:32 |
Hello. Who are you? |
00:21:34 |
I'm your ghost. |
00:21:36 |
Right. |
00:21:37 |
Don't worry. He isn't always such a jerk. |
00:21:49 |
This place really comes alive at night. |
00:22:21 |
You'll be with us for four weeks, |
00:22:24 |
I'm afraid so. |
00:22:25 |
And the bill goes directly |
00:22:28 |
Good. |
00:22:29 |
That doesn't include the mini-bar. |
00:23:15 |
All right. He's ready for you. |
00:23:21 |
How's your hotel? Quiet? |
00:23:23 |
Monastic. |
00:23:24 |
That's nice. No distractions. |
00:23:34 |
Thanks, love. |
00:23:38 |
Hi, man. You ready to start? |
00:23:41 |
Absolutely. |
00:23:59 |
Is the manuscript loaded on this? |
00:24:01 |
Can I have it? |
00:24:02 |
I'm sorry, |
00:24:05 |
You mean I've got to retype |
00:24:07 |
Have you really got my entire book |
00:24:09 |
We can get 100 books on it, Adam. |
00:24:11 |
And it can be copied in a flash. |
00:24:14 |
Amazing. |
00:24:16 |
You know the worst thing about my life? |
00:24:19 |
Everything's done for you. |
00:24:22 |
If I need cash, |
00:24:26 |
This is the kind of details |
00:24:29 |
I couldn't put that in. |
00:24:32 |
No, not at all. No, this shows what it's like |
00:24:36 |
That's exactly |
00:24:38 |
How does it feel to run a country? |
00:24:42 |
How does it feel to be so hated? |
00:24:44 |
Thanks a lot. |
00:24:45 |
And so loved. |
00:24:47 |
Amelia, what do you think? |
00:24:49 |
I think I should leave you two alone. |
00:25:00 |
So, how do we go about this? |
00:25:04 |
I interview you. |
00:25:06 |
I turn your answers into prose. |
00:25:08 |
Here and there, I'll add linking passages, |
00:25:11 |
Okay. |
00:25:14 |
- You heard about Mike? |
00:25:20 |
We should put in |
00:25:23 |
I think his mother would like that. |
00:25:25 |
Of course. |
00:25:30 |
Well, um, the first thing that struck me was, |
00:25:33 |
you became such a successful politician |
00:25:35 |
precisely because |
00:25:38 |
It's certainly not something I wanted to do |
00:25:41 |
I thought most student politicians |
00:25:43 |
Well, I'm with you there. |
00:25:48 |
Turned me on, indeed. |
00:25:52 |
Let's see, I was 23, something like that, |
00:25:58 |
And I remember it was a Sunday afternoon, |
00:26:02 |
I was still in bed. |
00:26:07 |
And, you know, |
00:26:10 |
and had a few drinks and what have you. |
00:26:12 |
So, I get the pillow and I put it |
00:26:15 |
Knock, knock, knock, knock! |
00:26:17 |
And I get up, I'm swearing, |
00:26:21 |
She's soaking wet, but she just launches |
00:26:25 |
And that's it. |
00:26:28 |
- I'm in love. |
00:26:31 |
This is Ruth. |
00:26:34 |
And the only way I can see her again |
00:26:38 |
This is great. |
00:26:40 |
You want to use this? |
00:26:41 |
Use it? I think we should open |
00:26:44 |
"I went into politics out of love, |
00:26:46 |
"not love for a party or an ideology, |
00:26:52 |
Could you transcribe this |
00:26:54 |
Of course. |
00:26:56 |
- Thanks. |
00:26:57 |
Pretty well. He keeps calling me "man." |
00:26:59 |
He always does that |
00:27:02 |
There are sandwiches in the kitchen. |
00:29:04 |
Oh, shit. |
00:29:07 |
It's awful. |
00:29:09 |
I'm sorry, sir. |
00:29:11 |
What on earth is going on? |
00:29:12 |
It's just a security drill, sir. |
00:29:15 |
So, there you are. |
00:29:18 |
I'm a big boy now. |
00:29:20 |
Don't wander around on your own. |
00:29:22 |
Gotcha. |
00:29:27 |
- Did you win? |
00:29:32 |
Gym? What's he in training for? |
00:29:37 |
Here's your transcript. |
00:29:46 |
Cambridge. Let's talk about that. |
00:29:50 |
Sorry? Um... |
00:29:52 |
Cambridge? |
00:29:55 |
It was such a long time ago, |
00:29:58 |
You did a lot of acting? |
00:30:00 |
Some. |
00:30:02 |
It must have been good training |
00:30:05 |
It was a good way to meet girls. |
00:30:07 |
Let's not put that in, by the way, okay? |
00:30:10 |
Still, acting must have been |
00:30:13 |
Okay, let's say I enjoyed it. |
00:30:14 |
You know, you go on the stage, |
00:30:16 |
and people actually applaud you for it. |
00:30:19 |
Good, that's more like it. Let's put that in. |
00:30:20 |
- No. |
00:30:21 |
Because these are the memoirs |
00:30:23 |
And whenever my opponents were stuck |
00:30:26 |
they always said I was a bloody actor! |
00:30:28 |
Do you know what the Times ofLondon |
00:30:31 |
"Kindly leave the stage." |
00:30:33 |
So, no, we won't dwell, if you don't mind, |
00:30:37 |
We leave it exactly the way Mike wrote it. |
00:30:42 |
Would you like to take |
00:30:43 |
Actually, that would be a good idea, |
00:31:00 |
What a bastard. |
00:31:05 |
Look at this. |
00:31:11 |
"Former British Foreign Secretary |
00:31:14 |
"has asked the International Criminal Court |
00:31:17 |
"that the former British Prime Minister |
00:31:19 |
"ordered the illegal handover |
00:31:22 |
"for torture by the CIA." |
00:31:25 |
Don't! |
00:31:29 |
The pack is on the move. |
00:31:31 |
Unplug all the phones. |
00:31:33 |
Is Ruth still out walking? |
00:31:36 |
- Barry! Barry! |
00:31:39 |
Would you please find Mrs. Lang |
00:31:42 |
- Right. |
00:31:45 |
- Rycart has made a statement. |
00:31:47 |
- He just called me. |
00:31:48 |
He wanted very much to let me know |
00:31:51 |
He wanted very, very much to tell me |
00:31:53 |
because of his well-known stand |
00:31:57 |
that he couldn't keep quiet any longer. |
00:31:59 |
"His well-known stand on human rights." |
00:32:09 |
- Sorry to lose my temper earlier. |
00:32:13 |
And have you told her? |
00:32:16 |
Yes. Just called her. |
00:32:18 |
Sorry, Adam. This is running on AP. |
00:32:23 |
"According to sources in The Hague, |
00:32:24 |
"the prosecutor's office |
00:32:28 |
"will issue a statement in the morning." |
00:32:30 |
Oh, Adam. |
00:32:32 |
Thank you, Alice. |
00:32:33 |
Why weren't we given some warning |
00:32:37 |
The phones are disconnected. |
00:32:38 |
Switch is probably |
00:32:40 |
Now? What freaking use is now? |
00:32:44 |
I mean, you're not telling me that |
00:32:45 |
the Cabinet Office |
00:32:47 |
The war crimes court doesn't warn |
00:32:50 |
That's what Adam is now, a suspect? |
00:32:53 |
You need to call Sid Kroll. |
00:32:54 |
I think we should call London first. |
00:32:56 |
Adam! If it suits them, |
00:33:00 |
You need a lawyer. Call Sid. |
00:33:03 |
- Get Sid on the line. |
00:33:06 |
Issue a holding statement, something short. |
00:33:09 |
This is when we need Mike. |
00:33:10 |
I'll write something. |
00:33:12 |
Let him do it. |
00:33:15 |
- Hang on a minute. |
00:33:17 |
Not defensive, that'd be fatal. |
00:33:21 |
No bitterness, no anger, and don't say |
00:33:22 |
I'm pleased at this opportunity |
00:33:26 |
So, you're not defensive, |
00:33:28 |
You're not angry, but you're not pleased? |
00:33:30 |
That's it. |
00:33:36 |
Told you he was funny. |
00:33:37 |
I've always been a passionate supporter... |
00:33:40 |
No, scrub that. |
00:33:42 |
I've always been |
00:33:45 |
of the work |
00:33:49 |
You're the writer. |
00:33:50 |
The struggle against terror is too important |
00:33:53 |
to be used for the purposes |
00:33:57 |
Very good. |
00:34:02 |
- Hello? |
00:34:04 |
This is gonna be big. |
00:34:08 |
- Could be. |
00:34:11 |
Okay. |
00:34:12 |
What've you covered so far? |
00:34:14 |
Um... |
00:34:16 |
The early years, childhood, university. |
00:34:18 |
All right, forget that crap. |
00:34:21 |
And he can't talk to anybody else, all right? |
00:34:24 |
- Right. |
00:34:26 |
Any chance of you |
00:34:28 |
Sooner? |
00:34:29 |
Yeah, yeah, sooner. |
00:34:31 |
Well, how much sooner? |
00:34:33 |
I'm thinking two weeks. |
00:34:36 |
Jesus. |
00:34:38 |
Look, I know it's tough, |
00:34:41 |
I'm relying on you. We'll talk. |
00:34:50 |
Shit. |
00:34:57 |
I'd never have guessed you smoked. |
00:34:58 |
I only allow myself one |
00:35:02 |
- And which is this? |
00:35:04 |
Maddox just called. He wants the book |
00:35:07 |
Christ. Good luck. |
00:35:08 |
Yeah, I wouldn't mind a lift back to my |
00:35:12 |
You're not planning on |
00:35:13 |
- out of here, are you? |
00:35:15 |
Because you do realize |
00:35:18 |
- You can search me, if you like. |
00:35:23 |
All right. Fetch your stuff. |
00:35:27 |
Mr. Lang insisted he had always been |
00:35:30 |
of the work |
00:35:33 |
Mr. Lang added, quote, |
00:35:35 |
"The struggle against terror |
00:35:37 |
"to be used for the purposes |
00:35:40 |
- Same again, sir? |
00:35:42 |
- Yes, thanks. |
00:35:43 |
Foreign Secretary Richard Rycart, |
00:35:47 |
Could we change the channel? |
00:35:48 |
- Sure. |
00:35:50 |
At issue is the practice |
00:35:54 |
an interrogation technique |
00:35:58 |
- Something to eat? |
00:36:01 |
- Club sandwich. Clam chowder. |
00:36:07 |
You're English? |
00:36:12 |
And so are you. |
00:36:14 |
Indeed I am. |
00:36:16 |
- You here on a holiday? |
00:36:19 |
So, what's your line? |
00:36:21 |
Just this and that. Excuse me. |
00:36:26 |
I hear Adam Lang's on the island. |
00:36:32 |
Is he? |
00:36:33 |
So I hear. |
00:36:36 |
You don't happen to know |
00:36:38 |
No. |
00:36:40 |
No, I'm afraid not. If you don't mind. |
00:36:43 |
Raymond to Naslund and to Mattias Ohlund. |
00:36:46 |
A slap pass to Lukas Krajicek. |
00:36:51 |
Barret Jackman and the referee... |
00:36:54 |
Asshole. |
00:36:55 |
...and Ohlund can't hold it in again, |
00:36:59 |
Keith Tkachuk almost set to come back on. |
00:37:38 |
Hello? |
00:37:49 |
- Can I help you? |
00:37:51 |
Yeah, can you tell me, |
00:37:55 |
No, sir. |
00:37:56 |
- Did anyone ask for me? |
00:38:01 |
What about that other guest? The, um... |
00:38:04 |
There's an Englishman. |
00:38:07 |
You're the only guest in the hotel, sir. |
00:38:24 |
- Hello? |
00:38:25 |
of the hotel immediately. |
00:38:27 |
Things have changed. A car is on its way. |
00:38:29 |
What? |
00:38:31 |
See you then. |
00:38:33 |
Hello? |
00:39:03 |
Okay. |
00:39:13 |
- It's getting big, huh? |
00:39:16 |
Who're you with? |
00:39:19 |
I'm on my own. |
00:39:24 |
Oh, sod it. Here we go again. |
00:39:33 |
You've reached the office |
00:39:36 |
Hi, Rick. |
00:39:40 |
Thanks for getting me this job. |
00:39:42 |
Can't talk. |
00:39:44 |
You're working for a murderer! |
00:39:50 |
Liar! Liar! Liar! |
00:39:58 |
- Are you ill? |
00:40:01 |
This place is Shangri-La in reverse. |
00:40:04 |
I tried to call you |
00:40:06 |
You didn't answer. |
00:40:07 |
I forgot to charge my mobile phone. |
00:40:09 |
Really? And the hotel phone? |
00:40:11 |
I'm a heavy sleeper. |
00:40:13 |
Well, you can do your heavy sleeping here |
00:40:15 |
- Here? |
00:40:17 |
You can't run the media gauntlet every day. |
00:40:20 |
Eventually, they'll discover who you are. |
00:40:33 |
So, this is where you put the granny. |
00:40:35 |
No. |
00:40:37 |
This is where we put Mike McAra. |
00:40:45 |
We haven't had a chance to clear it yet. |
00:40:49 |
Actually, I make it a rule |
00:40:52 |
But now you can have constant access |
00:40:55 |
Isn't that what you want? |
00:40:56 |
Besides, Sid Kroll |
00:40:58 |
Why don't you settle in, |
00:41:02 |
- You're practically one of us now. |
00:41:05 |
You drafted the statement yesterday. |
00:41:13 |
So, here's the score. You're not being |
00:41:15 |
None of this is gonna amount |
00:41:17 |
The only thing the prosecutor is asking for |
00:41:18 |
is permission to launch |
00:41:21 |
- Investigating me for what? |
00:41:23 |
Either crimes against humanity |
00:41:25 |
Well, that's absurd. |
00:41:28 |
"Under Article 25, |
00:41:31 |
"if that person facilitates the commission |
00:41:33 |
"or aids, abets or otherwise assists |
00:41:36 |
- That's rather sweeping. |
00:41:39 |
you're in no jeopardy |
00:41:42 |
Are you saying |
00:41:45 |
As your attorney, I strongly advise you |
00:41:48 |
that recognizes the jurisdiction |
00:41:52 |
Well, just about every country in the world |
00:41:54 |
America doesn't. |
00:41:55 |
- Who else? |
00:41:57 |
Iraq, China, North Korea, Indonesia, Israel. |
00:42:02 |
- And that's it? |
00:42:05 |
Wait! |
00:42:06 |
I wish to make a short statement. |
00:42:09 |
This morning, I was granted power |
00:42:12 |
the former British Prime Minister, |
00:42:15 |
under Articles 7 and 8 of the 1998 Rome |
00:42:21 |
I shall shortly be contacting Mr. Lang |
00:42:25 |
to ask for their full cooperation. Thank you. |
00:42:35 |
Oh, God. |
00:42:36 |
Okay, we need to get you to Washington, |
00:42:39 |
My plane is at the airport. |
00:42:40 |
We can get you in to see |
00:42:42 |
and have a photo-op |
00:42:45 |
Won't it look as if I'm panicking? |
00:42:47 |
No, they'll both say |
00:42:49 |
Well, what the hell |
00:42:50 |
AIDS? Poverty? Climate change? |
00:42:53 |
Who cares? The important thing |
00:42:56 |
- What do you think, Ruth? |
00:42:59 |
You'll look as though |
00:43:01 |
running crying home to daddy. |
00:43:02 |
- So, what would you do? |
00:43:06 |
The government will support you. |
00:43:08 |
"The British government |
00:43:12 |
Really? And what makes you think that? |
00:43:15 |
I'm not thinking it, Ruth, I'm reading it. |
00:43:18 |
...believe we can now go live |
00:43:21 |
where the former British Foreign Secretary, |
00:43:25 |
is about to make a statement. |
00:43:27 |
I watched the announcement in The Hague |
00:43:30 |
Adam Lang was |
00:43:33 |
You cheeky bugger! |
00:43:34 |
I regret that he's chosen to bring this down |
00:43:38 |
This isn't personal. This is about justice. |
00:43:41 |
This is about making sure |
00:43:44 |
when they make a decision, |
00:43:45 |
they will be held to account |
00:43:49 |
Thank you. |
00:43:50 |
If you're called to testify, sir, will you go? |
00:43:52 |
Certainly, I'll go. |
00:43:55 |
That settles it. Washington it is. |
00:43:58 |
I still say it'll look bad. |
00:43:59 |
Not as bad as being led away |
00:44:02 |
It would show you had some guts. |
00:44:03 |
Well, then why the hell |
00:44:05 |
If the British government wants to hand me |
00:44:09 |
I'll go where people want me. |
00:44:13 |
Amelia, tell the boys we're leaving. |
00:44:16 |
You'd better pack one for yourself. |
00:44:18 |
Why don't you share a suitcase? |
00:44:47 |
I'll see you tomorrow. |
00:44:51 |
At least this might help sales. |
00:44:53 |
Perhaps Rhinehart's PR department |
00:44:57 |
Well, tell them to stop it, will you? |
00:45:05 |
Okay, people, |
00:45:16 |
So, just to summarize |
00:45:20 |
the special prosecutor |
00:45:23 |
is to launch an investigation... |
00:45:28 |
...the special prosecutor announced |
00:45:31 |
well, there was a big cheer, I can tell you. |
00:45:34 |
So, let's talk to some of these protestors. |
00:45:36 |
- You, sir, you're English, I believe. |
00:45:39 |
So, what brings you so far from home? |
00:45:40 |
My son. He was killed |
00:45:44 |
Lang's never visited the injured. |
00:45:47 |
I was in the British Army for 30 years. |
00:45:51 |
Thank you. |
00:45:53 |
You're a murderer, Lang! |
00:45:56 |
Liar, liar, liar! |
00:45:58 |
Lang, Lang, Lang! |
00:46:00 |
Killer, killer, killer! |
00:46:02 |
Lang, Lang, Lang! |
00:46:06 |
Lang, Lang, Lang! |
00:46:13 |
Over here, Mr. Lang! |
00:46:15 |
I apologize for keeping you waiting so long |
00:46:18 |
What's your reaction |
00:46:20 |
I'd like to say a few words |
00:46:25 |
These are strange times when |
00:46:30 |
are accused of being criminals, |
00:46:33 |
while those who incite hatred |
00:46:37 |
- are treated as victims. |
00:46:41 |
Let me make one thing perfectly clear. |
00:46:44 |
While I have breath in my body, |
00:46:49 |
Liar! |
00:46:50 |
...whether it's on the battlefield |
00:46:55 |
Thank you very much. |
00:46:56 |
Have you spoken |
00:48:26 |
Oh, for God's sake. |
00:48:34 |
God. |
00:49:35 |
Shit! |
00:49:39 |
One minute! |
00:49:45 |
Yes? |
00:49:49 |
Sir? You want lunch? |
00:49:52 |
That would be great. |
00:50:18 |
P. Emmett? |
00:50:54 |
Richard Rycart. |
00:50:58 |
Who is this? |
00:51:39 |
- Dep? |
00:51:41 |
Is there a map of the island |
00:51:58 |
Look. It's rain soon. |
00:52:00 |
I don't know. I think it will be all right. |
00:52:03 |
Why don't you take the car? |
00:52:09 |
- For our guests, it's very nice car. |
00:52:12 |
Mr. McAra loved this car very, very much. |
00:52:15 |
Do you know... I'm gonna take the... |
00:52:19 |
This is... Just a moment, just a moment. |
00:52:21 |
It's rain. I give... |
00:52:26 |
- That's very kind, thank you. |
00:52:28 |
- Thank you. Thank you, yeah, bye. |
00:53:02 |
Just one moment. |
00:54:27 |
God, you frightened me. |
00:54:29 |
- You're British. |
00:54:32 |
It's okay, you can shelter. Sheltering's free. |
00:54:36 |
No, no, no, no! Rosie, Rosie! |
00:54:38 |
In you go. In, in. |
00:54:41 |
Here. |
00:54:45 |
- So, you're British, huh? |
00:54:48 |
- You anything to do with this fellow, Lang? |
00:54:52 |
Seems intelligent. |
00:54:54 |
Now why did he go |
00:54:56 |
with that damn fool in the White House? |
00:54:58 |
Well, that's what everyone wants to know. |
00:55:00 |
What brings you to this part of the island? |
00:55:03 |
I'm sightseeing. |
00:55:06 |
Well, you sure picked a heck of a day for it. |
00:55:09 |
Someone I knew was found washed up |
00:55:14 |
- You mean the British guy from the ferry? |
00:55:18 |
- Now that was a funny business. |
00:55:22 |
No way should that current have carried him |
00:55:25 |
- No? |
00:55:27 |
Are you sure? |
00:55:29 |
I've lived here 54 years. |
00:55:32 |
Did you mention that to the police? |
00:55:34 |
The police? At my age, |
00:55:39 |
Annabeth's the one dealing with the police. |
00:55:42 |
Your wife? |
00:55:43 |
Annabeth Wurmbrand, |
00:55:48 |
She's the one |
00:55:51 |
- Lights? |
00:55:55 |
- When? |
00:56:01 |
Could, could you, um... |
00:56:04 |
Could you point me in the direction |
00:56:07 |
Oh, sure. You just... |
00:56:09 |
Here. Follow it down the beach there. |
00:56:12 |
It's the house nearest the ocean. |
00:56:15 |
- Why not? |
00:56:19 |
Fell down stairs a week ago. |
00:56:22 |
Been in a coma ever since. |
00:57:06 |
Come down! |
00:57:17 |
Come down! |
00:57:22 |
Dep told me you were here! |
00:57:25 |
What? |
00:57:26 |
I said Dep told me you were here. |
00:57:30 |
We came to get you before the storm came. |
00:57:33 |
- Just taking the air. |
00:57:35 |
I wanted to see |
00:57:38 |
Why? |
00:57:39 |
Adam's asked me |
00:57:43 |
- Where's your bike? |
00:57:45 |
Barry, will you come around with the car? |
00:57:48 |
I can't do that, I'm afraid, Mrs. Lang. |
00:57:51 |
For God's sake! |
00:57:52 |
If we meet any terrorists, I'll text you. |
00:57:54 |
All right, well, stay on the path. |
00:57:57 |
We won't talk to a soul, Officer, I promise. |
00:58:03 |
Poor Mike. I can't bear the idea of him |
00:58:09 |
I wonder if we'll ever know |
00:58:12 |
Can't help you. I never met him. |
00:58:16 |
I suppose it doesn't really matter. |
00:58:18 |
He was drunk. He drowned. End of story. |
00:58:24 |
- What was he doing on the ferry? |
00:58:29 |
Funeral's on Monday, in London. |
00:58:34 |
I'm thinking of going. |
00:58:36 |
One of us should put in an appearance, |
00:58:38 |
and it doesn't seem likely |
00:58:40 |
I thought you didn't want to leave him. |
00:58:41 |
Rather seems as though he's left me, |
00:59:57 |
- Hello? |
01:00:01 |
- I brought you some dry clothes. |
01:00:05 |
Dinner's in an hour, okay? |
01:00:08 |
Fine, thanks. For God's sake. |
01:00:32 |
"It was at the time |
01:00:34 |
"that I first got to know Ruth. |
01:00:36 |
"She had gained a First at Oxford |
01:00:38 |
"and then done a year's postgraduate |
01:00:42 |
Ruth. |
01:00:49 |
Mmm. |
01:00:50 |
- Perfect fit. Now all you need is a drink. |
01:00:54 |
Biodynamic white wine from |
01:01:02 |
Rhinehart. He doesn't |
01:01:09 |
Mmm. Evening news. |
01:01:12 |
For war crimes. |
01:01:15 |
Christ, we're the lead story. |
01:01:17 |
Pour us some more wine, will you? |
01:01:20 |
I may have to get drunk for a change. |
01:01:23 |
In Washington, |
01:01:27 |
both from congressional leaders |
01:01:30 |
before going on to a private dinner tonight |
01:01:33 |
Adam Lang has stood by America's side |
01:01:36 |
and I'm proud to stand by his side |
01:01:39 |
- Adam, good to see you. |
01:01:42 |
Thank you very much, indeed. |
01:01:44 |
Don't grin. |
01:01:47 |
In Iraq, a suicide bomber... |
01:01:48 |
For God's sake! |
01:02:02 |
Adam. |
01:02:05 |
Calling to find out how I think it went. |
01:02:09 |
- Let him sweat. |
01:02:12 |
Yes, |
01:02:14 |
and always usually takes it. |
01:02:18 |
Until lately. |
01:02:21 |
- Are you married? |
01:02:24 |
- Gay? |
01:02:27 |
- Did you have a... |
01:02:29 |
- What? Girlfriend? |
01:02:33 |
Partner? |
01:02:35 |
A bit less than that. |
01:02:36 |
I don't know, |
01:02:38 |
and there's no word |
01:02:40 |
It was doomed. |
01:02:44 |
Come on. Let's eat. |
01:02:51 |
- How's it going? |
01:02:55 |
- Well, it's not, to be honest. |
01:02:58 |
- Can I ask you something? |
01:03:03 |
I find it difficult |
01:03:06 |
- What things? |
01:03:11 |
I can't understand |
01:03:13 |
who goes to Cambridge |
01:03:17 |
and who spends his time acting |
01:03:22 |
- suddenly ends up... |
01:03:23 |
Oh, no, not that. No, not that, at all. |
01:03:28 |
No, what I don't get |
01:03:30 |
is why, at 22, |
01:03:34 |
- I mean, where does that come from? |
01:03:36 |
He said he joined the party because of you. |
01:03:39 |
Told me a great story about you |
01:03:42 |
- I was gonna start the whole book with it. |
01:03:45 |
No, I can't. It's not true. |
01:03:49 |
- Isn't it? |
01:03:52 |
He'd been a member for two years |
01:03:54 |
How do you know that? |
01:03:57 |
I've got a copy |
01:04:02 |
Mike McAra found it in the archives. |
01:04:04 |
Typical Mike, to ruin a good story |
01:04:08 |
Did he find anything else? |
01:04:10 |
Not much. Cambridge stuff mainly. |
01:04:17 |
You were more political than he was. |
01:04:18 |
I was certainly a change |
01:04:22 |
All those Jocastas and Pandoras. |
01:04:24 |
And so his marriage to you |
01:04:27 |
your knowledge |
01:04:30 |
And I thought he married me for my body. |
01:04:36 |
Did you ever want to be |
01:04:40 |
Of course. |
01:04:44 |
Ouch. |
01:04:47 |
I'm sorry. I've hurt your feelings. |
01:04:52 |
I suppose even ghosts must have feelings. |
01:04:55 |
We are sensitive spirits. |
01:05:00 |
Talking of spirits, could you... |
01:05:03 |
Let me get you a proper drink. |
01:05:14 |
White wine, |
01:05:17 |
That's the sort of thing Mike used to say. |
01:05:20 |
Ah! At last, something in common. |
01:05:26 |
Do you know the coroner reckoned |
01:05:29 |
That's convenient. |
01:05:31 |
- What do you mean? |
01:05:38 |
- You think his death was suspicious? |
01:05:41 |
Yes. |
01:05:45 |
Yes, I do. |
01:05:51 |
Today at the beach, |
01:05:53 |
I met a man, an old timer |
01:05:56 |
And he said that there was no way |
01:05:58 |
that a body from the ferry |
01:06:02 |
You're kidding. |
01:06:03 |
He also said that there was a woman who |
01:06:07 |
And then she fell down the stairs, |
01:06:11 |
That's all you know? Jesus. |
01:06:19 |
- Can I borrow your phone? |
01:06:22 |
I need to call Adam. |
01:06:30 |
- What? |
01:06:32 |
- Aren't you gonna call him? |
01:06:36 |
But it's pitch black. It's pouring with rain. |
01:06:39 |
- It'll clear my head. |
01:06:41 |
No. Thanks, but I need to work this one |
01:06:44 |
Stay here. Have another drink. |
01:07:09 |
Are you awake? |
01:07:12 |
- Well, I am now. |
01:07:15 |
It's all right. Hang on. |
01:07:23 |
- What time is it? |
01:07:28 |
I called Adam. |
01:07:32 |
- And? |
01:07:49 |
The day before Mike died, |
01:07:52 |
he and Adam had a terrible row. |
01:07:54 |
I've never told anyone this before, |
01:07:56 |
- What about? |
01:07:59 |
But it was furious. They never spoke again. |
01:08:06 |
When I asked Adam about it, |
01:08:11 |
After what you just said, |
01:08:16 |
And what did he say? |
01:08:19 |
He was having dinner |
01:08:20 |
That bloody Bly woman |
01:08:25 |
Oh, God. Oh, dear God. |
01:08:29 |
What's he got himself mixed up in? |
01:08:32 |
It's all right. Everything'll be all right. |
01:08:38 |
I'm scared. |
01:08:40 |
I've never been scared in my life before, |
01:08:46 |
Your hair's all wet, you're drenched. |
01:09:06 |
Bad idea. |
01:09:09 |
Do you mind? |
01:09:12 |
Course not. |
01:10:13 |
The modesty of the morning after? |
01:10:15 |
I'm sorry. I thought you were asleep. |
01:10:17 |
You mean you thought I'd be gone? |
01:10:35 |
You've taken out the family tree. |
01:10:39 |
You know, if you want a family tree, |
01:10:45 |
Why have you underlined my name |
01:10:48 |
I was surprised |
01:10:50 |
Why? I'm just the wife. |
01:10:53 |
Yeah, even so. |
01:10:56 |
Why not? Most women are. |
01:10:58 |
Then I'll reinstate you. |
01:11:00 |
I'll put in all the occasions |
01:11:02 |
How kind. Like the boss's secretary |
01:11:07 |
Something like that. But then, |
01:11:11 |
- What are you planning to do? |
01:11:15 |
It's not necessary, as far as I'm concerned. |
01:11:18 |
I'm afraid it is, as far as I am. |
01:11:20 |
- Where will you go? |
01:11:24 |
Look, I'm sorry. I should never have stayed |
01:11:27 |
- It always ends up with... |
01:11:30 |
No, not always. |
01:11:33 |
But it does make it hard |
01:11:35 |
And the thing we discussed last night? |
01:11:40 |
- That's none of my business. |
01:11:44 |
Look, I'm his ghostwriter. |
01:11:48 |
- What are you gonna do about it? |
01:11:52 |
Ex-Prime Minister's Wife Tells All. |
01:11:54 |
Well, if you ever decide to do that, |
01:11:56 |
You think I need someone like you |
01:11:58 |
I don't want to be in his bloody memoirs. |
01:12:02 |
He's on his own. I'll get a divorce. |
01:12:05 |
And she can do the prison visits. |
01:12:42 |
Morning, sir. |
01:12:44 |
- Finished for the night, have we? |
01:13:38 |
BMW ConnectedDrive. |
01:13:41 |
Traffic is clear to your destination. |
01:14:00 |
Join the road when possible. |
01:14:21 |
In 200 yards, turn left. |
01:14:24 |
Sorry, lady, but the hotel is right. |
01:14:31 |
Turn around when possible. |
01:14:33 |
This is getting ridiculous. |
01:14:56 |
Turn around when possible. |
01:14:58 |
All right, you win. |
01:15:14 |
In 50 yards, turn left. |
01:15:25 |
Turn left. |
01:15:27 |
You've got to be joking. |
01:15:43 |
Single or return? |
01:15:45 |
Return. I hope. |
01:15:49 |
Forty bucks, please. |
01:15:51 |
- Have a good one. |
01:16:17 |
Okay, come on. Come on, keep coming. |
01:16:20 |
A little more. Stop. |
01:16:52 |
In 50 yards, turn left. |
01:17:02 |
Please proceed to the indicated road. |
01:17:05 |
In 200 yards, take the next exit. |
01:17:08 |
In half a mile, make a sharp right turn. |
01:17:12 |
Turn left. |
01:17:15 |
In 200 yards, |
01:17:26 |
You have reached your destination. |

Paul Emmett? |
01:18:43 |
Professor Paul Emmett? |
01:18:50 |
"Professor Paul Emmett |
01:18:52 |
"has written of the unique importance |
01:18:55 |
"in the spread of democracy |
01:18:57 |
"As these nations stand together, |
01:19:00 |
"whenever they have faltered, |
01:19:49 |
Hello? |
01:19:50 |
- Is that Mrs. Emmett? |
01:19:52 |
I wondered if I might have a word |
01:19:55 |
Do you have an appointment? |
01:19:56 |
It's about Adam Lang. |
01:20:00 |
Just a moment, please. |
01:20:05 |
This is Paul Emmett. |
01:20:09 |
But you were at Cambridge with Mr. Lang? |
01:20:11 |
We were contemporaries, yes, |
01:20:15 |
I have a photograph of you together. |
01:20:19 |
Come on up to the house. |
01:20:50 |
I make it a rule never to see anyone |
01:20:54 |
But your mention of a photograph |
01:21:00 |
- Please, come in. |
01:21:04 |
Yes, he's here now. |
01:21:07 |
- May I? |
01:21:10 |
Yes. Yes, he's on his own. |
01:21:13 |
He didn't say. |
01:21:15 |
British, about 40. |
01:21:17 |
Well, well. |
01:21:21 |
- But that is you? |
01:21:23 |
I was on the board of the Dramat. |
01:21:26 |
- The Dramat? |
01:21:31 |
I maintained my theatrical interests |
01:21:33 |
when I went to Cambridge |
01:21:39 |
- Could I keep this? |
01:21:40 |
- I'm sure I could get you a copy. |
01:21:46 |
Maybe you could tell me |
01:21:48 |
I'd be happy to. |
01:21:53 |
Come into my study. |
01:21:59 |
Yes, the wall of ego. |
01:22:02 |
We all have one. |
01:22:08 |
Have a seat. |
01:22:18 |
So, the picture. |
01:22:19 |
Um... |
01:22:21 |
I've been working with Adam Lang |
01:22:24 |
Yes, I know, you told me. |
01:22:26 |
Yes, poor Lang. It's bad business, |
01:22:31 |
As for Rycart, the worst |
01:22:34 |
Lang was right to fire him. |
01:22:36 |
- How well do you know Lang? |
01:22:40 |
- You seem surprised. |
01:22:43 |
Oh, really? |
01:22:45 |
Well, now it's my turn to be surprised. |
01:23:08 |
That's very decent of him. |
01:23:10 |
As Prime Minister, |
01:23:14 |
- But that doesn't mean I know him. |
01:23:16 |
That. That was taken at a reception |
01:23:19 |
to mark the 10-year anniversary |
01:23:22 |
- Arcadia? |
01:23:25 |
Very highbrow. |
01:23:27 |
The Prime Minister graced us |
01:23:31 |
What can you remember of him |
01:23:36 |
- I'm sorry, you don't mind, do you? |
01:23:39 |
It's just that I'm rather bewildered. |
01:23:41 |
No one's mentioned the Cambridge |
01:23:45 |
- But you performed together? |
01:23:49 |
It was the summer revue. |
01:23:53 |
- Can I show you something else? |
01:24:05 |
Oh, my. |
01:24:08 |
Is that what I think it is? |
01:24:10 |
Let's hope he didn't inhale. |
01:24:12 |
But that is you standing behind him, |
01:24:14 |
I do believe it is. |
01:24:15 |
And I do believe I'm on the point |
01:24:18 |
on the perils of drug abuse. |
01:24:21 |
Is Mr. Lang really going to use |
01:24:26 |
If so, I would prefer it if I weren't named. |
01:24:29 |
My children would be mortified. |
01:24:31 |
They're so much more puritanical |
01:24:33 |
- Can you tell me about any of the others? |
01:24:38 |
The whole summer is a blur, |
01:24:43 |
Now, you were going to tell me |
01:24:47 |
I got them from Michael McAra. |
01:24:50 |
And he is whom, exactly? |
01:24:52 |
My predecessor on Lang's memoirs. |
01:24:56 |
- He resigned? |
01:24:59 |
I'm sorry to hear that. |
01:25:01 |
Yes, a couple of weeks ago. |
01:25:05 |
And he died a few hours afterwards. |
01:25:06 |
He drove up to see me? |
01:25:10 |
- How did he die? |
01:25:14 |
Poor fellow. |
01:25:16 |
I've never really believed the myth that |
01:25:21 |
Seems to me it must be agonizing. |
01:25:24 |
And the police never said anything to you |
01:25:26 |
I've had no contact with the police. |
01:25:29 |
But were you here that weekend? |
01:25:30 |
This would have been |
01:25:35 |
A less equable man than I might start |
01:25:46 |
Nancy? |
01:25:51 |
Our visitor wishes to know where we were |
01:25:55 |
Do we possess that information? |
01:26:04 |
That was the Colorado weekend. |
01:26:08 |
Yes, of course, the Aspen Institute. |
01:26:12 |
Bipolar relationships in a multi-polar world. |
01:26:15 |
- Sounds fun. |
01:26:18 |
Look, just to return to Cambridge... |
01:26:20 |
No, if you don't mind, |
01:26:24 |
I've said all I have to say on that subject. |
01:26:28 |
I'm an avid reader of political memoirs. |
01:26:32 |
Perhaps he'll send you a copy, |
01:26:35 |
I doubt that very much. |
01:26:38 |
The gate will open automatically. |
01:26:39 |
Be sure to make a right |
01:26:43 |
If you turn left, the road |
01:26:46 |
and you may never be seen again. |

Ticket? |
01:30:26 |
- Okay. |
01:30:59 |
Shit. |
01:32:14 |
Hey, you! Stop! |
01:32:15 |
Don't do that! Where you going? |
01:32:17 |
Man, get out of here! |
01:32:23 |
Shit! |

You've reached the office |
01:33:13 |
Piss off. |

What can I do for you, sir? |
01:33:30 |
You wouldn't happen to know |
01:33:32 |
the airport tonight, would you? |
01:33:33 |
Not unless you've got your own private jet. |
01:33:35 |
I lent it to my butler. |
01:33:37 |
You Brits! |
01:33:41 |
There's a flight to Boston |
01:33:43 |
- 8:30 tomorrow morning. |
01:33:47 |
- How much for a room? |
01:33:50 |
- I'll pay cash. |
01:34:30 |
You rang back. |
01:34:34 |
Are you going to stay on the line this time? |
01:34:36 |
Yes. |
01:34:38 |
I've been trying to call you. |
01:34:41 |
I know, I'm sorry... |
01:34:44 |
It didn't seem right, speaking to you. |
01:34:47 |
Who are you? |
01:34:49 |
I'm the new ghostwriter... |
01:34:52 |
No names, don't use any names. |
01:34:55 |
How did you get this number? |
01:34:58 |
It was in my predecessor's effects. |
01:35:04 |
The... |
01:35:06 |
The thing is, I'm in trouble. |
01:35:08 |
Is it because of your client? |
01:35:11 |
Yeah. |
01:35:13 |
There's something wrong, |
01:35:15 |
Where are you? Without being too specific. |
01:35:19 |
I'm in the... No, I'm on the mainland, |
01:35:24 |
Room number? |
01:35:30 |
201. |

01:35:34 |
Okay. Stay there. |

Yeah, just about. |

The police called to say |
01:38:45 |
I'm so sorry. I parked it, |
01:38:50 |
What the hell were you doing |
01:38:53 |
- I drove to New York. |
01:38:56 |
I needed to see John Maddox. |
01:38:59 |
And where are you now? |
01:39:01 |
I'm still at the ferry terminal. |
01:39:05 |
You really are bloody hopeless! |
01:39:07 |
I just had Adam on the phone, |
01:39:10 |
He's flying back tonight. |
01:39:14 |
You didn't tell him about us, did you? |
01:39:16 |
God's sake, Ruth! |
01:39:19 |
I've got to go. I'll call you back. |
01:39:27 |
- Who is it? |
01:39:31 |
Hold on. |
01:40:02 |
Just gonna do a quick check, |
01:40:18 |
Get your stuff together. We're leaving. |
01:40:25 |
Hey! That's private! |
01:40:50 |
- He's clean. |
01:40:56 |
Sorry about that. Please, get in. |
01:41:15 |
- You thought it was a trap? |
01:41:18 |
You do work for Lang. |
01:41:19 |
Yeah, for three days. I hardly know the guy. |
01:41:22 |
Who does? I worked for him for 15 years, |
01:41:26 |
Yeah, his wife said more or less the same. |
01:41:28 |
There you go. If someone as sharp as Ruth |
01:41:33 |
- Tough day? |
01:41:36 |
You have the book? |
01:41:39 |
Yeah. |
01:41:40 |
He's got it. |
01:41:49 |
Before we go any further, I wonder |
01:41:58 |
No. Before we go any further, |
01:42:02 |
Such as, |
01:42:10 |
Okay. Sure. |
01:42:12 |
He was helping me. |
01:42:14 |
McAra? How? |
01:42:16 |
Mike found the documents linking Lang |
01:42:19 |
What? It was McAra |
01:42:21 |
- Yeah, Mike McAra. The loyalest of the loyal. |
01:42:25 |
He didn't like discovering |
01:42:29 |
Would you? |
01:42:31 |
Oh, I forgot. You are. |
01:42:35 |
The book? |
01:43:06 |
Well, don't tell me |
01:43:08 |
Not all of it. Just the beginning. |
01:43:11 |
There's something very important about it. |
01:43:13 |
Yeah. It's the cure for insomnia. |
01:43:16 |
There you go, guys. |
01:43:19 |
No, thanks, love. |
01:43:24 |
Mike said he'd discovered something new. |
01:43:29 |
He said it explained everything that had |
01:43:33 |
- What was it? |
01:43:36 |
He just kept saying if anything happened |
01:43:41 |
"It's all there in the beginning." |
01:43:43 |
The beginning? |
01:43:45 |
Then he means Cambridge. |
01:43:59 |
What the hell's this? |
01:44:00 |
That is Lang, and that is Paul Emmett. |
01:44:04 |
Emmett? The Arcadia guy. So what? |
01:44:07 |
On the day that Mike McAra died, |
01:44:11 |
and I think he was murdered |
01:44:13 |
- What? |
01:44:14 |
and two guys followed me from his house. |
01:44:19 |
At the time that this photograph was taken, |
01:44:22 |
Paul Emmett was an officer in the CIA. |
01:44:26 |
Emmett? |
01:44:27 |
- Foreign Resources Division. |
01:44:32 |
You realize how important this is, |
01:44:35 |
This explains why Lang went into politics. |
01:44:38 |
Everyone knows he didn't have |
01:44:43 |
This is why he rose so quickly, |
01:44:48 |
- Well, do you think it's possible... |
01:44:50 |
Name one decision Lang made in 10 years |
01:44:54 |
which wasn't in the interests of the USA. |
01:44:58 |
Well, come on, it's not a trick question. |
01:45:02 |
Iraq, Middle East policy, Star Wars defense, |
01:45:06 |
buying American nuclear missiles, |
01:45:10 |
The sacking of any minister |
01:45:14 |
including yours truly. |
01:45:16 |
McAra was right. |
01:45:18 |
This explains everything. |
01:45:25 |
It's Amelia Bly. |
01:45:27 |
Answer it. |
01:45:30 |
- Hello, Amelia. |
01:45:35 |
Lang. |
01:45:36 |
We're coming to get you. |
01:45:38 |
What? |
01:45:40 |
Ruth tells me |
01:45:42 |
We've just taken off from New York. |
01:45:44 |
Pilot says we can stop by and pick you up. |
01:45:48 |
Really? There's no need. |
01:45:50 |
We've got a book to write, remember? |
01:45:54 |
Hold on a sec, Adam. |
01:45:58 |
He said he wants to |
01:46:00 |
- Say yes. |
01:46:02 |
If you refuse, he'll get suspicious. |
01:46:08 |
That'd be great, Adam. Yeah, thanks. |
01:46:12 |
See you there. |
01:46:16 |
He sounds worried. |
01:46:19 |
I really don't think this is a good idea. |
01:46:21 |
You have no choice. |
01:46:22 |
Emmett must have told Lang |
01:46:24 |
So, what's he gonna do about it? |
01:46:27 |
- Well, it happened before! |
01:46:29 |
He can't drown two ghostwriters, |
01:46:36 |
All this is just theory. |
01:46:39 |
- You'll get us the proof. |
01:46:41 |
You're his ghostwriter. |
01:46:44 |
- I use discs, actually. |
01:46:46 |
You've got to confront him with this. |
01:46:48 |
Even if he denies it, it's something. |
01:46:50 |
I'm in a tricky position here. |
01:46:54 |
It's a bit late for that. |
01:46:56 |
- It means the discs are his property. |
01:47:00 |
And what if I don't record any discs? |
01:47:02 |
Then you'll be subpoenaed |
01:47:05 |
Then I'll deny it. |
01:47:06 |
Then I'll give them this. |
01:47:11 |
Frank is recording every word. |
01:47:13 |
Aren't you, Frank? |
01:47:18 |
Oh! Come on! |
01:47:20 |
Don't look so shocked. |
01:47:22 |
That I'd come into a meeting |
01:47:24 |
without taking any precautions? |
01:47:27 |
Except you're not working |
01:47:30 |
You're working for the good guys. |
01:47:33 |
You know all this is pointless, don't you? |
01:47:36 |
In the end, he'll just retire over here |
01:47:39 |
and he'll tell you and the bloody |
01:47:57 |
Good evening, sir. |
01:48:00 |
Thank you. |
01:48:03 |
It's my first time in a private jet. |
01:48:05 |
Well, let's hope it's not your last. |
01:48:19 |
Hi, man. |
01:48:21 |
- Take your seat. |
01:48:25 |
- Hey, bring my ghost a Calvados. |
01:48:49 |
Do you mind? |
01:48:51 |
Leave it off for now. |
01:48:53 |
Ruth said you were in New York |
01:48:57 |
- That's right. |
01:49:00 |
He was fine. |
01:49:01 |
Full of energy? |
01:49:03 |
- You know John. |
01:49:07 |
As a matter of fact, I was just with him. |
01:49:10 |
You never saw him today, did you? |
01:49:14 |
No. |
01:49:16 |
Do you have something to tell me? |
01:49:18 |
I went to see Emmett. |
01:49:20 |
That windbag! Why? |
01:49:23 |
I know about you and Emmett. |
01:49:25 |
- Me and Emmett? |
01:49:27 |
- My? |
01:49:29 |
- My handler? |
01:49:44 |
Oh, my God. |
01:49:48 |
You're serious, aren't you? |
01:49:59 |
When McAra found this, |
01:50:02 |
and he died on the way home, |
01:50:06 |
I think you've had a few too many |
01:50:09 |
It was McAra who believed that Emmett told |
01:50:14 |
- Emmett? I barely knew the man. |
01:50:16 |
about why you joined the party and Ruth |
01:50:20 |
I got the dates wrong. Big deal! |
01:50:22 |
Then when he found this photograph, |
01:50:23 |
and he heard the rumors |
01:50:25 |
- Rumors? |
01:50:27 |
I've never heard such utter balls |
01:50:32 |
Mike would never have believed such crap. |
01:50:38 |
Mike betrayed you to Rycart. |
01:50:44 |
- How do you know that? |
01:50:47 |
Rycart? |
01:50:51 |
He's lying. |
01:50:57 |
This phone number on the back |
01:51:01 |
The handwriting, that's McAra's. |
01:51:05 |
Mike. |
01:51:08 |
- Mike, Mike. |
01:51:10 |
You had a big row with him |
01:51:12 |
Yes, I know, but he never mentioned this. |
01:51:17 |
I've never taken orders from anyone. |
01:51:19 |
Whatever I did, |
01:51:23 |
What, even supporting illegal kidnapping |
01:51:25 |
Oh, for God's sake, |
01:51:29 |
Do you know what I'd do |
01:51:31 |
I'd have two queues at airports. |
01:51:34 |
One for flights |
01:51:37 |
infringed on no one's civil bloody liberties, |
01:51:41 |
And on the other flight, |
01:51:45 |
to make it perfectly safe. |
01:51:47 |
And then we'd see which plane |
01:51:50 |
would put their bloody kids on! |
01:51:52 |
And you can put that in the book! |
01:52:20 |
Go home! |
01:52:22 |
Go home! |
01:52:24 |
Here comes the killer! |
01:52:26 |
Prosecute for torture! |
01:52:29 |
Over here, Mr. Lang! |
01:52:31 |
Mr. Lang! |
01:52:37 |
Mr. Lang, will you take |
01:52:44 |
When we get back to the house, |
01:52:50 |
Oh, my God! |
01:52:52 |
Firing from the roof! |
01:52:58 |
Let me go to him! No! No! |
01:53:06 |
Move, move, move! |
01:53:47 |
How long had you known Mr. Lang? |
01:53:49 |
- Couple of days. |
01:53:52 |
I was his ghost. |
01:53:54 |
His ghostwriter. |
01:53:57 |
Do you recognize this man? |
01:54:01 |
He was one of the protestors. |
01:54:05 |
Did you ever speak with him? |
01:54:07 |
He was in the bar one night |
01:54:09 |
But did you speak with him? |
01:54:11 |
He asked me if I knew where Adam Lang |
01:54:13 |
- I told him that I didn't. |
01:54:17 |
Sorry? |
01:54:18 |
Did you report this conversation |
01:54:21 |
No. |
01:54:22 |
What was Mr. Lang's demeanor |
01:54:24 |
He was... He was fine. He seemed fine. |
01:54:28 |
One witness said she thought |
01:54:32 |
No. |
01:55:01 |
- We're gonna need your passport. |
01:55:03 |
A serious crime was just committed |
01:55:14 |
We need to keep you close. |
01:55:20 |
Like a fallen soldier, |
01:55:24 |
home to a shocked and grieving nation. |
01:55:27 |
Not just his family, but friends |
01:55:33 |
A great colleague and a true patriot. |
01:55:37 |
We had our disagreements, |
01:55:41 |
My heart goes out to Ruth and the family. |
01:55:45 |
And I would like to say Adam will be... |
01:55:56 |
Who is it? |
01:55:57 |
Congratulations! |
01:56:01 |
On what now? |
01:56:02 |
Still having me as your agent. Hmm? |
01:56:07 |
They don't need you anymore. |
01:56:10 |
You're free to go. |
01:56:17 |
- You ready to get back to work? |
01:56:21 |
- I'm sorry. Not after all this. |
01:56:23 |
This is a hot book now. |
01:56:28 |
- The guy, he's a hero. |
01:56:31 |
You can. |
01:56:32 |
Go. Go home. |
01:56:39 |
I don't know, Rick. |
01:57:05 |
Here we are. |
01:57:07 |
Oh, here we are. |
01:57:20 |
I'm sorry. |
01:57:23 |
I think I'm over it, |
01:57:28 |
- Are you sure this is all right? |
01:57:31 |
Only I wondered if you might've wanted |
01:57:35 |
That didn't work out. |
01:57:37 |
I hadn't appreciated quite how bored |
01:57:45 |
- Shall we go in? |
01:57:54 |
- Amelia Bly, plus one. |
01:58:01 |
That was a bit of a turn-up, for the books, |
01:58:03 |
I heard you weren't invited, |
01:58:05 |
Ghosts are never invited |
01:58:08 |
We're an embarrassment. |
01:58:12 |
Sorry. |
01:58:15 |
I brought you a present. |
01:58:19 |
Thank you. |
01:58:29 |
That's very funny. |
01:58:31 |
I thought, seeing as |
01:58:33 |
you might like it as a souvenir. |
01:58:34 |
Between you and me, it wasn't us, |
01:58:37 |
They thought the book was |
01:58:41 |
But there's nothing in it. |
01:58:42 |
Something about the beginnings. |
01:58:45 |
- The beginning? |
01:58:50 |
Beginnings? |
01:59:02 |
You all right? |
01:59:04 |
Do you know that man? |
01:59:07 |
- Paul Emmett? |
01:59:09 |
Well, he was Ruth's tutor at Harvard |
01:59:12 |
Why shouldn't he be here? |
01:59:20 |
Do you mind if I have that back a second? |
01:59:26 |
I'm... |
01:59:31 |
Madam? |
01:59:56 |
"Langs are Scottish folk, originally." |
02:00:08 |
"Wife and child in tow, I decided to... |
02:00:12 |
"I decided to settle." |
02:00:13 |
Ladies and gentlemen, |
02:00:18 |
Thank you. |
02:00:26 |
I miss Adam all the time. |
02:00:30 |
But never more than tonight. |
02:00:32 |
Not just 'cause we're meeting |
02:00:35 |
and he should be here to share |
02:00:40 |
but because he was so brilliant |
02:00:44 |
and I'm so terrible. |
02:00:47 |
"Langs are Scottish folk." |
02:00:49 |
"Wife and child, Langs are Scottish." |
02:00:52 |
"Wife, Langs. Lang's wife." |

02:01:19 |
Well, you'll be relieved to hear |
02:01:22 |
I just want to thank |
02:01:24 |
Marty Rhinehart and John Maddox, |
02:01:27 |
and our attorney and friend, Sidney Kroll. |
02:01:31 |
And finally, but especially, Mike McAra. |
02:01:37 |
Mike, our thoughts are with you. |
02:01:41 |
In these very difficult few months, |
02:01:46 |
from knowing that, despite the terrible |
02:01:51 |
Mike and Adam did at least live long |
02:01:56 |
And I really believe that, |
02:02:00 |
Adam's voice will keep on coming through |
02:02:04 |
eloquent, strong and full of hope. |
02:02:07 |
Thanks to his words, he is with us still. |
02:02:12 |
If I've left out anyone's name, |
02:02:19 |
But now I must make a toast. |
02:02:22 |
To the memory of a great man |
02:02:26 |
and a great patriot, |
02:02:29 |
a wonderful husband and a devoted father. |
02:02:32 |
To Adam! |
02:02:33 |
To Adam! |
02:03:08 |
You were marvelous. |
02:03:12 |
Would you... |
02:03:48 |
This one looks nasty. |
02:03:49 |
Yeah, it's just happened just now. |
