- You got time to lean,
you got time to work, old man.
- Yeah.
Put those in the kitchen.
- You gonna go through
them this time?
- What's the point?
- We're hanging on by
hair's breath here, Dad.
Would you please
just consider it?
- [John] Where do they get here?
- [Laney] Anytime now.
- [John] Tell Bob to
pull 23 for slaughter.
Maybe that'll buy us a
little time until we need to-
- Dad!
Please just listen to them.
It's a good deal.
- This is a working
ranch, Laney.
It's not an amusement park.
- If we can make
this deal work out,
then we can pay off
those overdue mortgages
and survive until next year.
Without it, we're screwed.
[serene music]
[car engine rumbles]
[serene music continues]
[plane engine buzzing]
- Where are we?
- Montana.
- Kat, I know we're in Montana,
but we've been driving
for like two hours.
- Mm-hmm.
- Just saying, this
better be worth it.
- Oh, it is.
Well, it has to be.
The distributors
are losing patience.
Well, actually, everyone
is losing patience.
- They can wait.
- No, they can't, Fabe.
They actually can't.
This one location is
holding up our entire sh**t.
We need to make this work.
'Cause if we don't, well, we're
gonna start losing actors.
There's no more wiggle room
left in the schedule as it is.
- Okay, that's not my fault.
- Well-
- That last location
was complete crap,
and you know it.
- No, I don't know it.
It wasn't complete crap, Fabe.
One angle.
One angle.
You could see power
poles in one angle.
- Do you think Kurosawa
could have lived with that?
- Again, Kurosawa.
- Do you know once he rejected
an entire village as a set
because you could see modern
nails in the roofing tiles?
- Uh-huh.
Yeah, you know what?
I'm not asking
you to compromise.
I'm asking you to be
reasonable, Fabian.
- I am reasonable.
- All right, that
village, he used it.
Yeah.
He had his crew take
every single nail
out of every single roofing
tile in that entire village.
And then he used it.
- Still-
- Fabe.
We need this.
[gentle serene music]
- I know.
[gentle serene music continues]
- Oh.
Hi.
- Hi.
- And you are Laney?
- Yes, Laney Alexander.
- Oh, so nice to meet you.
I'm Kat, we spoke on the phone.
- Yes.
- And this is Fabian,
the writer and director
of the project.
- [Laney] Vabian.
- [Fabian] Fabian with an F.
- Oh, and this is
my father, John.
Dad, this is Fabian,
the director,
and Kat, the producer.
- Hi.
So nice to meet you.
- [Laney] She's the one
I spoke to on the phone.
- Yeah.
- You know what?
Your ranch is gorgeous.
It's just like the pictures.
It's so expansive.
- Yeah, it really is.
- And do you wanna
sh**t a movie here?
- Yes.
Well, some of it.
It's about homesteaders.
- Women homesteaders.
- Yes, women homesteaders.
- Did you know that
half of the women
who homestead in Montana
were single women?
No, you don't.
That's because the patriarchy
doesn't wanna convey that
part of the narrative.
- It sounds great to me.
Dad.
- [John] 18%.
- What?
- Single woman
homesteaders, 18%, not half.
- You know, your ranch,
it's such a nice bit.
I mean, it's just gorgeous.
- I just don't trust this guy.
- I guess we could
always go down the road
and try someplace else.
- See, I own everything
on this side of the hill.
- We'll give you
- I'm sure we can work it out.
- Great.
- Dad.
- The patriarchy's gonna
make another cup of coffee.
Why don't y'all figure it out?
[uplifting music]
- [Frank] Is it taken care of?
- Yes, Frank.
All the pieces are in place.
- [Frank] You know
I love the kid
but he'll tank this if you
don't stay on top of it.
- Don't worry.
I've got it under control.
- [Frank] No more issues, okay?
- Frank, no, really, it's fine.
Everybody's good to go.
- [Frank] It better be.
- Frank, I know.
Trust me.
I know.
[crickets chirping]
[liquor burbling]
- So?
- Yep.
- Then Laney's happy.
- Yeah.
- We working Monday anyway?
- Blowing 23 for slaughter.
- Portions for everyone?
- Uh-huh.
- See you on Monday morning.
- Yeah.
Bob.
- Yeah?
- You think I'm doing
the right thing?
Letting them trample
all over my land.
- You're asking an Indian that?
Night, John.
[cow moos]
- Stay there.
Easy.
[cow moos]
[birds chirping]
- You want me to do it?
- No, you're here.
I'll do it.
- I'll get you the r*fle.
- Nope.
I wanna do this one up close.
- Well, you better do
it before they get here.
- I want them to see me do it.
[dramatic classical music]
- Nice.
We're here.
- I love this.
- Wow.
Stunning.
- That's good.
[cow moos]
[g*ns fires]
[Kat gasps]
[dramatic classical music]
[cow thuds]
[birds chirping]
[crew faintly speaking]
- Welcome to my ranch.
- I'm gonna go talk to Dad.
- Yup.
- What the hell was that, Dad?
- Just setting a tone.
- Really?
Hey, I've got a great idea.
How about we set a tone that
doesn't say, "We hope you die."
- You wanna try that again?
- Come on, Dad.
You've gotta work
with me on this.
They're paying good money,
and there's no reason
to pick a fight.
Can you at least promise me
you won't get in the way?
- Did the deposit clear?
- [Laney] It cleared.
- Good, I'll be in town.
[gentle lively music]
- Hey, man.
I heard they're making a
movie at your place. [laughs]
Yeah, I heard it's gonna
be "Brokeback Mountain 2"
or some sh*t like that.
- Hell, here we go.
[man laughs]
- John, long time no see.
- Kern, how are you?
- I'm doing good.
- Good, good.
- Bob tells us they're making
a movie out to your place.
- Is that right, Bob?
Yeah, I guess everybody knows.
- [Kern] I think
it's a good idea.
- Yeah.
- Opportunities don't come
around like that very often,
especially in Montana.
- Yeah, I didn't really
come in to talk about that.
I just want to see if
y'all want to go fishing.
- [Kern] In the middle
of the day, John?
I don't know.
- You got beer?
- I said I was going
fishing, didn't I?
[bright music]
- Think anything will hit?
- Not in this weather.
[bright music continues]
Sometimes a man
just needs to fish.
- I think the two of us
need to have a little chat.
- About my father?
- Well, Fabian too.
I mean, the two of them, right?
[Laney laughs]
Ugh!
- Yeah.
- It's like they locked
into each other immediately
and went straight
for the throat.
Do you know what I mean?
- I think everyone within 50
miles knows what you mean.
[Kat laughs]
So what do we do about it?
- Ah.
I don't know.
Fabian is, he's a hard one.
- I heard that.
- No, but I mean, he's actually
the reason I took this job,
is he's different.
Well, see, there are some
filmmakers who are very serious
and some are divas and,
well, if I'm being
completely honest,
some are just total idiots
that get lucky. [laughs]
But Fabian, well, he's
a breed unto himself.
- Good or bad?
- Oh, good.
No, definitely good.
It's just that he's...
How do I put it?
- Intense?
- Yes, he's intense.
But he's actually
more than that.
He's, he's obsessive.
When he's working on a
project, nothing else matters.
The last project that
I worked with him on,
his mom tried to get in
touch with him for three days
while he was on set.
She was just trying
to let him know
that his father had passed.
And when I finally
was able to tell him
what she wanted to tell him,
he said, "It's an
unnecessary distraction."
And walked right back on set
to talk about the next shot.
- I take it they
weren't close then.
- No.
I mean, I don't think it really
would've mattered if he was.
I've never met another
person who was more artistic
and creative and
vulnerable, yet so focused.
I mean, it's always
like he's racing
every minute of every day.
And if he deviates one
iota, he'll be lost.
- [chuckles] Well, that's why
they don't get along then.
- What?
Your father's an artist?
- No, not by long shot.
- Obsessive.
- You could say that, yeah.
You know, he grew up on a ranch,
but that's not why he does it.
- Oh, well, I assumed
it's for the money.
- No, you don't get into
cattle for the money
unless you want a monster herd.
Dad wouldn't ever let
the herd get that big.
He's always said he
didn't want cattle around
he didn't recognize.
- Why would you
wanna recognize them?
Aren't you gonna send them
off to be slaughtered?
- Yeah, okay, fair point.
But, I mean, really,
it doesn't matter.
He loves them.
A few years ago, we're looking
for this one particular bull.
Took us two days to find him.
Yeah.
When we finally did,
he was all the way at
the back of the property.
- Wow.
- Far far away.
- Wow.
- Yeah.
Ranch hands couldn't
[indistinct] no
matter what they did,
so Dad went out on his own.
A few hours later, he
came up and over that hill
with that 2,000-pound bull
following like a puppy dog.
- Oh.
Wow.
- Yeah.
He loves those animals,
and they know it.
[serene music]
- How are we gonna get
through this month?
- I'm thinking one
drink at a time, Kat.
- I'll buy the first round
after wrap tonight.
- Deal.
- Yeah.
[assistant faintly speaking]
Okay, all right, I'll be there.
- You gotta-
- Yeah, I got to...
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
Uh, can I ask you
for a huge favor
and you run an errand for me?
- Yeah, I don't see why not.
- Great.
Could you pick up an actor at
the airport in a couple hours?
- I better get going then.
- Oh, you're awesome.
Oh, but you know what?
You don't actually have
to take your truck.
You know, take my car.
There you go.
And if you don't mind,
could you just, you know,
just, like, buff this
out a little bit?
But I love it.
I do love it.
It's so authentic.
Oh, so authentic.
- Yeah.
- High maintenance.
- Yeah.
- Thank you so much.
[bright music]
[plane buzzing]
- Rebecca.
- Hi.
Are you my ride?
- Sure am.
[bright music]
- I recognize you
from somewhere.
- Well, I had a TV show
on the Lifetime channel.
- No way, no.
It's definitely...
[Rebecca laughs]
It's just-
- No, it's...
It's fine.
I get it.
Not your thing.
- No.
[Rebecca laughs]
It's definitely not that.
- Okay.
So, how far is the ranch?
- It'll be dinner time
before we get there.
Everyone's meeting up
at the bar tonight.
- Oh.
I should probably
go to my hotel.
Turn in early for
work, you know?
- That does sound like
the smart thing to do,
but it doesn't get dark until
well after 10 o'clock here.
What kinda shoes do you have on?
- Tennis.
Why?
- You'll see.
[Rebecca laughs]
[serene music]
[birds chirping]
[footsteps thumping]
Here.
[birds chirping]
- Amazing.
It's huge.
- And that's just
like the bottom third.
It's the largest freshwater
lake west of the Mississippi.
[uplifting music]
[birds chirping]
[birds chirping]
Welcome to Montana.
[birds chirping]
[uplifting music]
[birds chirping]
- Let's get first team in here.
First team.
- [Staff] First team.
[staff faintly speaking]
- Wow.
Dhalia James.
Now I am impressed.
- And you are?
- I'm John Alexander.
This is my ranch.
Welcome.
- Huh.
- It was a pleasure to meet you.
- You don't wanna be here
for this scene, John.
- Really?
- Let me explain
something to you.
You don't wanna be here.
- g*y scene?
- No, John, it's
not a g*y scene.
There's no such
thing as a g*y scene.
- Cowboys, I've
heard about that.
What have you got going on here?
[birds chirping]
- Okay.
Fine.
Go ahead and watch
just this once,
but only so you understand
what I'm trying to do here.
Don't interrupt.
- Oh.
Chores done?
- [Laney] Yeah, done.
Of course.
- Mike, are we ready?
- Yeah, we're ready.
- Ready.
- Now, we're ready.
- All right, let's go.
- Roll camera.
- [indistinct] speed.
- [Staff] Alpha, take three.
- [Staff] Guys, we have
deer in the background.
- See, I wouldn't
even see those.
- Look at the baby.
[indistinct] baby.
- [Mike] Camera shot.
Set.
- Action.
- Imogene, don't you see?
Can't you see me?
- Caroline, I see you.
I see the real you.
- And you hate me?
- I don't hate you.
- Then why can't you love me?
Please?
This week, last night, you
held me while I cried, and I-
- Caroline, you need
to be shown love,
like so many women do.
- Yes.
I do.
I do-
- But not by me.
Not me.
Not forever.
You are only trying to
escape the living hell
that is your husband.
And I am not interested
in a Boston marriage.
[light music]
- Kiss me.
Kiss me, Imogene.
- Oh, holy cow farts.
- Cut!
Damn it, John!
- You really are making
a g*y cowboy movie.
- Damn it, shut...
Cut!
One, this isn't a
g*y cowboy movie.
This is a film.
Two, get the f*ck off my set!
Mike, call a break.
Damn it!
- Okay, okay.
Okay.
- Ladies.
- Let's take five, y'all.
[gentle serene music]
- There she is, my star.
Hey, Dhalia.
How you doing dear?
- Good, how are you?
- Good, good, good.
- Oh, it's been a while.
- I know, I know.
I'm so sorry about that.
And thank you so much
for hanging in there.
I know the break between sets
has been a little
longer than anticipated.
- It's a little longer
than my first marriage.
Yeah?
[Kat laughs]
- It's good.
I know the time has been
a little unorthodox.
- Well, we got it worked out.
Just don't forget, I have
the nighttime appearance
on Jimmy somebody next week.
- Yes, no worries.
I have it in the schedule.
Absolutely.
Oh, you know what?
I'd like introduce
you to someone.
- Is he rich?
[Kat laughs]
- It's a she, and-
- Oh, well.
- So this...
Oh.
- [Fan] Are are you
really Dhalia James?
- In flesh, yeah.
- [Fan] Could I ask
for an autograph?
- Oh, yeah.
Here, let's just get a selfie.
- Okay.
- You ready?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, hi. [laughs]
That's great.
- Thank you.
Thank you so much.
- Yeah, of course.
- Uh, Becca, are
you all settled in?
- Anyway, I'm really
excited to be here
and I'm really excited about
the new setup and everything
out here in...
Where is it?
- Northwest Montana.
- Right.
- About an hour
south of Kalispell.
- Kalispell.
What is...
What is sort of
drink in Kalispell?
- Huckleberry vodka, actually.
- Would you like me to
get you one of those?
- No, not at all.
I need a martini.
- [Kat] I gotcha.
Cool.
- Okay.
- Yeah.
[upbeat music]
[guest chattering]
- What?
- Sorry, I just...
- [Rebecca] What?
- I've seen you somewhere a lot.
And I don't know where, but
I know I've seen you before.
- You keep saying that, but I
don't know what to tell you.
- God, it's bugging me.
- I mean, I have played a
lot of good parts in movies,
but this is my
first starring role.
- Supporting role.
You're welcome.
- Thank you.
My first supporting
role that's this big.
- [Laney] It's not that though.
- No?
[Laney laughs]
Oh.
Oh, no.
- I know what it is.
- I think I know what
you're going to say.
- You were the
Makita tools girl.
- Oh, yep.
I had a feeling that
was gonna happen.
- My ex had posters of
you all over his shop.
- I am so sorry.
- [Laney] Why are you sorry?
- I...
I don't know.
Just kind of embarrassing.
- It's not embarrassing.
- No?
- You were adorable,
and your toolbox cutoffs.
[Rebecca laughs]
I loved it.
- Well, thanks.
I mean, everybody has
to start somewhere.
That was mine, so...
- Absolutely.
- Let me buy you the next round.
- You're my ex's fantasy crush.
I'm buying you the next round.
[Rebecca chuckles]
- Okay.
- So, Dhalia.
- Yes, darling?
- [Kern] Can I ask
you for a big favor?
- Yeah.
- Would you mind just
keeping an eye on Spence?
- Yeah.
He seems fine.
- You know, I saw him
earlier this morning,
and he seemed really juiced up,
if you know what
I'm talking about.
- Yeah, he was real awake
for that time of day, right?
- [Kat] Yes.
- Yeah, I'm gonna make sure
that he's not doing
anything insane.
- Thank you.
I really appreciate it.
Oh, I recognize that shadow.
[guests laughing]
- Action.
- Oh, Lord.
Speaking of the devil.
- I'm just kidding.
I'm in a movie.
I lied, I am the movie.
Oh.
- Okay.
- Hello.
- Oh.
Hi, Captain Subtle.
What's happening?
- Wait, now I'll keep it on.
- Please, do.
You know what, Spence?
Dhalia and I were just
talking about you.
[Spence chuckling]
- Hey, Spence, can you look over
to the grownup
side of the table?
- Yup.
- How about we go up there
and have an actual
discussion about our job?
- Ugh.
Hunting?
- Yeah.
- Is that okay with you?
- [Laney] Oh, absolutely.
- [Dhalia] Okay.
- Okay.
Well, Ms. Dhalia, of course.
That sounds like such
a wonderful offer.
How could I refuse?
- That accent is vile.
- Teach me.
- Okay, baby.
- Oh my goodness.
- Oh, hi.
Oh! [yelps]
- [Spence] Barkeep.
This damsel needs a beverage.
- Okay, sorry about that.
I know.
It's a lot, it's a lot,
but don't worry about it.
- Yeah, it's fine.
[Rebecca laughs]
- I didn't expect that.
Ooh.
All right, so I am going to
get a good night's sleep.
- Night, Kat.
- Goodnight.
[Rebecca sighs]
- Everyone, I'd like
to introduce you
to the most wonderful
woman in the world.
I'm, of course, the best man.
- Does he ever stop?
[Laney laughs]
Whoa.
I think I'm gonna need like
at least three more of these.
- Let's get to work
on that, shall we?
- [laughs] Yeah.
Do you wanna dance?
Oh, yes you do.
Let's dance.
- No.
- Come on.
♪ Never know never
know never know ♪
♪ Never go never go never go ♪
♪ Never know never

[upbeat music]
♪ Never be the same ♪
[upbeat music]
♪ Never be the same yeah ♪
[owl hooting]
[engine revving]
- Wow.
- I know, right?
- I just don't realize how
many stars there really are.
I guess it's perspective, right?
You feel like you're the
center of the universe,
and then you look up
and realize how
tiny you really are.
- Well, I see this
most every night.
- Can I ask you something?
- You can ask me
anything right now.
- Did your dad
really sh**t a cow
right in front of the crew?
- Yeah. [laughs]
He was being male,
asserting dominance
and all that.
- Good god.
Men.
- Hey, we're lucky he
didn't pee on Fabian.
- Seriously?
- No.
[both laughing]
- Okay.
[Rebecca laughs]
- You have to understand
who my dad is.
He's a lot more complicated
than you might expect.
I mean, he is and he isn't.
Do you know what I mean?
- No.
You haven't really
told me anything.
- Well, did you know why
I was a scandalous birth?
- Oh, please tell that story.
[Laney laughs]
- Okay.
[uplifting music]
My dad met my mom when she
was traveling with the circus,
a fire dancer.
He had dated before, I'm sure,
but no one had ever
captured his attention
until the day she
walked into that bar.
He was entranced and the
connection was immediate.
It was a love of
intensity and passion,
something people write
about, but never experience.
[fire blazing]
[uplifting music]
That's what he waited for,
and that's what he got.
Nine months later,
I was the bonus.
- So he's a secret romantic.
- More than that.
[fire blazing]
[uplifting music continues]
When my mother got
sick, it crushed him.
I lost my mom.
But he lost more than his wife.
He lost the thing he poured
his entire heart and soul into.
- Now that's a love story.
- Yeah.
Why do they always
have to end in tragedy?
[gentle serene music]
- Attention.
Prop g*ns on set.
I repeat, prop g*ns on set.
Safety meeting in five minutes.
- [Fabian] Thank you, Mike.
- [Mike] Prop g*ns on set.
- Hey, Kat.
Sorry, what's going on?
- Oh, that's just a
safety notification.
We're letting everybody know
that there are prop g*ns on set.
Oh, don't worry though.
They're not live.
- Mm, yeah.
Let me be sure to watch out.
- Hmm?
Is there something funny?
- You know you're
in Montana, right?
- Mm-hmm, yeah.
- There's probably like 10 g*ns
within 100 yards of
you at all times.
- Oh, God. [laughs]
You're kidding, right?
- No, this is my concealed-
- Whoa, what the hell, Laney?
- Kat, it's just a g*n.
- Yeah, you could k*ll
someone with that thing.
- I have scared a bear
and shot a couple coyotes.
- Okay, that's just lovely.
Could you put that back?
You know what?
Better yet, keep
it in the house.
Our insurance is sketchy
enough with Spence on set.
- Okay.
- How's it go?
- Hey.
- Oh, hi, John.
- Kat, nice to see you.
- Nice to see you.
- So what's the deal
with the prop g*ns anyway?
- What's...
What's a prop g*n?
- It's a g*n we use on set.
- Well, why don't you
use a real weapon?
- What the actual f*ck?
- Hey.
- Calm down.
- I mean, could you just
put that away, please?
- What?
Look, just take
out the ammunition
[g*n c*ck] and
use a real weapon.
It's easy.
- No, because, see,
that's not safe.
Accidents can happen.
Accidents have happened.
Oh, Jesus.
[Spence laughs]
- Prop weapon day.
- Yep.
- It's prop weapon day.
- That's right.
- Everybody, I'd like
to have your intention.
It's time to freak out.
- Okay, Spence, let's
just take it down a notch.
And thank you so much
for deciding to join us.
- Prop watch.
- Excuse me.
You're still following
the same g*n safety
rules though, right?
- Of course, we have
an armor for that.
- Well, it's really basic.
It doesn't take long.
I mean, Laney's been doing
this since she was four.
- True.
[indistinct]
- No, you don't.
- Dad, no.
- Come on.
- Come on.
Lightness.
- Okay.
Let's see.
Rule number one, always treat
every g*n as if it's loaded.
- [John] That's right.
- Number two, always point the
barrel in a safe direction.
- All right.
Boring.
- Oh, Spence.
- So, don't do this?
- Lower the g*n, young man.
- [laughs] What?
Look.
It feels real.
No, come on.
- Just give me the weapon.
Give me the weapon.
- Don't do this?
- [Kat] Spence.
- [laughs] Come on.
[indistinct] the g*n.
- Just give me the
g*n, all right?
- God, it's not like
it's that big of-
[punch cracks]
- Oh, Jesus.
- Ow.
- What the hell, John?
- Hey, hey, dude.
I don't care who's
foot in the bill,
but no nutsack is
gonna run around
with a weapon on my property.
- You can't just go
around punching my actors.
Oh, and interrupting my sh**t.
- Hey, this is how
people get hurt.
- By you punching them?
- No, by disrespecting me.
- You can't just punch him.
- [Spence] Yeah.
- I just saved your life.
Maybe next time I won't.
- [Fabian] No, Kat.
Not this time.
He cannot as*ault
an actor on my set.
- Fabian.
- Where the hell do you get
off interrupting my sh**t?
Where the hell do you get off-
- Young man.
- Punching by actors.
- Okay, that's it.
That's it!
Both of you!
Stop this.
I'm sick of it.
We are on the cusp
of being shut down
by the distributor
right now, okay?
And that was before
this nonsense.
None of us can afford for this
production to go sideways.
So I need you two to stop
whatever this is between you.
- I'm good.
- Okay.
- Oh, you're good,
John, because I'm not.
I want you off my set.
- This is my land.
- Can we just stop for a moment?
[birds chirping]
Thank you.
Now, obviously, there is,
we're going on here, then
what's going on here.
But I...
We really, really need
to get through this.
So, does anyone
have any good ideas?
Anyone?
- Dad, why don't we
take the day off?
Spend the night at the lake,
maybe stay at Dave's?
- Yeah, that sounds
like a really good idea.
- Oh, oh, yeah.
That sounds like
a wonderful idea.
Oh, it's such a
great idea, Laney.
Thank you for that.
[indistinct]
Thank you.
- Okay.
All right.
Let's get going.
All right, come on.
- Hmm, yeah.
Say your piece.
Go on.
- We're wasting daylight.
I need to get back to set.
But this is something
I need you to hear.
You talked a lot about
respect back there,
respect for a g*n.
But I want you to think about
another kind of respect.
Respect for a person.
A person doing his job.
A whole crew of people
doing their jobs
while you get in the way.
[somber music]
[footsteps thumping]
- Sounds like we're
taking the day off.
- Nope.
I am.
- Ah.
[solemn music]
- John.
How are you?
- Uh-huh.
- Haven't seen you here in a
long time, you know, since-
- Yeah, I know.
Just looking for a bit
of peace, you know?
- I heard about the movie.
- That's why I'm here.
- Look, John.
We've known each
other a long time,
so I'm gonna say something a
pastor probably shouldn't say.
Now, listen, man, I...
You've been through a lot,
and I know you're
not the kind of guy
who likes to talk about
certain things but-
- Then let's not.
- All right, John, let's not.
Let's not.
Let's not talk
about losing Serena
or let's not talk
about Laney's injury.
- I knew it was a
mistake coming here.
- Or losing the ranch.
John, you wanna talk about that?
- How did you hear about that?
- [Pastor] People confide in me.
- Yeah.
Well, isn't that supposed
to be confidential?
- [Pastor] It's not
a confessional, John.
- Wow.
- Now, you're my friend.
Don't worry, I
won't say anything.
- You're a good pastor, Dan.
And a better friend.
But this is my
problem, not yours.
[pastor sighs]
[liquor burbling]
- Thanks.
- Well, John.
- Thanks.
- Thank you.
Let's toast.
- We don't toast.
- Tonight we do.
Tonight marks the
second year anniversary
of the death of Serena.
- Kern, Kern, don't.
- You got to heal.
You gotta get it out.
To Serena.
- Serena.
[solemn music]
- I don't forget.
You know?
I think about it every day.
Every moment, every day.
God, I miss that woman.
- You know how we mourn, John?
My people, my family, we
take a year and mourn.
We mourn deep and we mourn hard.
At the end of that year,
we bring family and
friends together
and eat and give
away their things.
- Wait.
You just give away
all their stuff?
- And then we move on.
You help no one,
including Laney,
by holding on so tight to
a past you cannot reclaim.
- [Kern] Amen.
- That's some good advice.
- I know.
- So humble.
[group laughing]
- It's not my advice.
My people.
No need to be humble
when it's true.
- So that's why you
keep him around, eh?
[Kern laughs]
- Keep him around?
I never gave him a job
in the first place.
He just keeps showing up.
- I like the cattle.
[group laughing]
- I really think I've screwed up
the past couple of
days back at the house.
Laney, that producer lady,
they're just ready to
tie my nuts to a post.
- Tomorrow's another day.
It's always another day.
Another chance,
another opportunity.
- Yeah, I suppose so.
Yeah.
- Give it a shot, John.
You might wind up
liking the kid.
- What about him should I like?
He doesn't respect me
and he doesn't respect
my way of life, so...
- Sounds a little
defensive to me.
Ain't you the one always saying,
"You can't hate a man
until you know him"?
- Do not use my words
against me, okay?
[group laughing]
- John, he's just your business
partner for a short while,
but there has to be a peace
between the two of you.
- Men, talk tomorrow.
Expected somewhere by eight.
- It's nine.
[Kern laughing]
- Uh, see ya.
[Dave laughs]
- Yeah.
That's perfect.
[crickets chirping]
[serene music]
[engine revving]
- Nice to see you.
Bob, isn't it?
- Yep.
Have a seat.
- Kat kind of insisted I come.
Laney said you'd be here.
Good.
Good.
So, Bob, what do you
think of the film?
- I haven't seen it yet.
- Well, I mean, I know
you haven't seen it yet.
I mean, no one's
seen it yet, but...
Hey, Bob.
- Yeah?
- I feel as though I'm in
the middle of a crisis.
I need to figure out John,
and, well, I need some advice.
You know, some old sage
Native American advice.
- Okay.
You want some advice?
- Yes, please.
See, I think if I could just-
- First, order a beer.
Bob?
- Shelby, my friend here
would like something.
- A beer, please.
- IPA, maybe a lager or-
- Just give him what I got.
- Sure enough.
[beer burbling]
- Now what?
- Don't know.
- Are you gonna
drink it or study it?
- I came in to see Bob,
I asked him for advice, and
he told me to order a beer.
- [Shelby] Sounds like
good advice to me.
- I'm just trying to
figure some things out.
- [Shelby] Such as?
- Such as, well, I'm having
a problem with a guy.
- Mm, boyfriend?
- No, why?
- Sorry, I thought you
were that g*y movie guy
everyone keeps talking about.
- I am.
I mean, I'm not...
I mean, I am.
I'm just...
Why does everyone in this town
have to be so in your face?
- Montana's a small town
with a long main street.
You've got maybe 25,000 people
within a hundred-mile
radius of you right now.
You don't fart without
someone knowing
what you had for lunch.
But relax.
The bar is fair game.
So, go on.
Tell Shelby.
What's up?
- I'm having a problem
with John Alexander.
- Yeah, I know him.
- So you know how he is?
- Stubborn, tough, pigheaded-
- Exactly.
- Protective, loving, loyal.
- I'm not seeing that part.
- So?
What's the problem?
- Honestly, I think he hates me.
There's no other way to put it.
He hates me and it makes
me want to hate him back.
- John?
sh**t, John doesn't hate anyone.
You may piss him off real bad
and he will let you know it,
but John doesn't hate anyone.
- Well, then why...
Did you hear what he did
when we arrived on set?
- With the steer?
Yeah.
I wish I could have
been there to see that.
It's hilarious.
- Hilarious?
The man is a psychopath.
- John's not a psycho.
He would never harm anyone
who wasn't a threat
to him or his family.
- Then why is he intent on
making me feel like he could?
- You really want my opinion?
- That's all I've
got at the moment.
- John's like a lot of guys
in the middle of this country.
His whole life is being
pushed out by new ideas,
new technology, new things.
And then you come
and you take over his
land with your movie.
- We're only gonna be
there for three weeks.
- Yeah, but you will
leave your mark.
That land is always
gonna be known
for what you're
doing on it today.
That adds to his story.
You add to his story.
And he doesn't know you.
- Okay, so what do I do?
- Show him you're a man.
- I am a man.
I mean, I'm not big
and rough like John,
but I am very respectable.
- John, he's not
gonna respect you
for trying to be like him.
Be yourself, but show him
that you deserve respect.
- I don't get it.
What am I supposed to do that
will make him respect me?
- What do you do?
- I'm a filmmaker.
- [Shelby] So make your film.
- And?
- I've seen your movies.
You're good at what you do.
Now show him why you're
good at what you do
and be unapologetic.
He'll respect that.
- See?
Order a beer.
[solemn music]
[Fabian sighs]
[solemn music continues]
[engine revving]
[water burbling]
- Hey, Dad.
You want a cup?
- Yeah, please, yeah.
[water burbling]
Thank you.
- It's Becca's big scene today.
- Ooh.
Becca, huh?
- We hung out at the
smokehouse the other night.
Girl [indistinct], but
she's not half bad.
- Hmm.
Oh, oh.
Maybe we should go watch.
- Uh, I don't think
that's a very good idea.
After yesterday.
Dad.
- I'll be good.
I promise.
- Hmm.
- Rebecca, take it from
Martin when we married.
- I know we should have gone
with a name with this one.
- She'll get it.
Trust me.
- Tick tock.
- Scene 43C, take five.
Marker.
- Action.
- Martin, when we married, I,
I barely knew you.
I was a girl.
I didn't know what I wanted,
except I knew I didn't
belong in St. Louis.
And then you came along and...
And...
sh*t.
Line.
- Damn it, cut.
- [Fabian] Rebecca,
where are we?
- Sorry, I'm off.
- What can we do here?
- I don't know.
I don't know.
The lines-
- You know the lines.
- I know.
I know I know the lines,
but something is off.
- Rebecca.
- [Crew] Got it.
- Um, could you...
- Becca, look at me.
Becca, I need you to focus,
and this isn't gonna do it.
Who are you?
- You know Spence isn't here,
and I'm working emotional
lines against a PA.
- Who are you?
- What?
- Who are you?
Who is Caroline Boyles.
- Oh.
Caroline.
- Who is Caroline?
- Caroline is a woman.
- And is she soft or tough?
- Well...
- Soft or tough?
- She's tough.
She's a tough woman.
- And?
And how does she feel?
- And she's scared.
She's scared because she doesn't
fit in her place anymore.
Imogene has rejected her and
she doesn't love her husband.
- And?
- And everything she has known,
she doesn't fit in
her place anymore.
And everything she has
known is behind her,
and she has to make this work,
and nothing is going right.
And she just wants
everything to be okay again.
- And what is she
going to do about it?
- I don't know.
I don't understand.
- Who is she?
What is she?
- She's a survivor.
She's...
She's so much stronger
than they know.
[Rebecca chuckles]
- Good.
Good.
So what is she going
to do about it?
- Let's do this.
- Yes.
Let's.
- [Staff] All right,
everyone, let's reset.
- Welcome to my set.
- [Staff] Scene 43C, take five.
Marker.
- Action.
- Martin, when we married,
I barely knew you.
- Dad!
- So you decided
to join us again.
- Free lunch.
- That is one advantage.
Planning on punching
anyone today?
- You know, [speaking
in foreign language].
- But the prudent
hold their tongues.
I am half Jewish.
[Fabian speaking in
foreign language]
[John speaking in
foreign language]
Spanish.
My father was Spanish.
My mother was Jewish.
- You?
My wife, it was
her favorite verse.
She was half Mexican.
She passed.
- It's two years ago today.
- I think I understand now.
- Yeah.
- Yes.
So what can we do about it?
- I have no idea.
- I know what to do.
[serene music]
- What's going on here?
- [Laney] Dad, this
is for you and mom.
- All her stuff, all our things,
why is it on the table?
- Sit down, John.
It's long past time we did this.
- Bob.
- Trust me, John.
Trust your daughter.
Grandfather, we thank
you for this gathering.
It's been two years
since Serena passed.
Two years of mourning
and two years that all of
us who are close to John
have held her in our hearts.
Now it's time to give her away
and allow her to be free.
Tonight we're doing a
giving away ceremony.
To my people, it's a
right of remembrance.
Some people's do it right away.
But in my tribe
and in my family,
we wait one year to do it.
And it's hard.
Sometimes takes longer
because when you
think of giving away
the things of the deceased,
you feel like you
are giving them away.
And you are.
Oh.
[Bob singing in Native language]
John.
Give away the things
that you know she loved,
the people who can allow her
to live more through them.
- This doesn't finish
till I do, does it?
- Dad.
Please.
- I know this is
too small for you.
She loved to ride
and you looked after every
single horse she ever own.
So, thank you, Bob.
When...
When we first met, she danced
for me with these pants.
And I [indistinct].
There you go, honey.
- [Laney] Thanks, Dad.
[Laney crying]
- You are welcome.
- Kat.
[group laughs]
I know this is for a horse,
[group laughs]
but I can think of
something similar
that you could use it on.
[group laughs]
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
- Faith was very
important to my wife.
And...
I'm not sure why I'm
supposed to give this to you,
but it feels like the
right thing to do.
Everything practically
in me tells me not to,
but I somewhere I can hear
her saying, "You must."
- Thank you, John.
- You're welcome.
- I mean it.
I will care for it.
Ann.
[indistinct] you would've
loved all this, [indistinct],
the house like this,
all these people.
- Mind if I have a seat?
I have to say,
that may have been one of
the most beautiful things
I've ever been a part of.
- She would've
liked you, you know?
- Your wife?
- Yeah.
She was always telling
me to be softer.
Stop thinking with
my fists and my d*ck.
She was a huge lib like you.
- You mean progressive?
- Call it what you want.
I'm pretty sure you
didn't vote for Trump.
- Don't get me started.
[John sighs]
It's amazing, isn't it?
- What's that?
- That you and I, along
with a full room of people
can share one of the
most intimate things
I've ever been a part of.
And yet...
Yet we can sit down and start
arguing ideologies right away.
- Yes and no.
I don't think we'd
agree on everything.
- But do we need to?
- I suppose not.
- You know I'm probably not
gonna read this, don't you?
- I figure as much, but best
for you to decide, not me.
- Growing up, Spanish and
Jewish is a bit odd, you know?
Spain these days
is pretty secular,
but my father,
at least as far as I can
remember him, he wasn't.
My mother clunked her faith,
but it was difficult not
having a Jewish husband.
- Yeah.
Yeah, I get it.
My wife, she always
said that faith,
it wasn't a destination,
it was a path.
You either walked towards
it or away from it.
I mean, you could step off of it
and you could forget
where you were going,
but as long as you
kept moving forward,
you'd be okay.
- I love that.
- She said a lot of
things like that.
- She sounds like
an amazing woman.
- Well, she is, was.
- To Serena.
[glass clinks]
- To Serena.
- Maybe we're not so
different after all.
- How's that?
- To be honest, we
needed you in your ranch.
- [John] Is that right?
- We still had the
homestead scenes to sh**t.
I couldn't find a
location that I liked.
I kept blowing up
location after location.
I thought Kat was
gonna have my head.
By the time she
found your place,
the actors were
threatening to walk.
The distributor was
threatening to drop us.
Investors were
calling me every day.
- Don't you have to plan
all this in advance?
- We did.
I got to our last location,
a place that I had
handpicked myself.
It just wasn't right.
It had to be right, John.
Do you understand?
This isn't my job.
This is my entire life.
People will be watching
this for decades
or hundreds of years
to come, if I'm lucky.
And it has to be just right.
- You're putting a lot of
pressure on yourself, young man.
- It's my legacy, John.
Look at this place.
You have a real legacy here.
Generations of history.
- I wanna show you something.
[footsteps thumping]
Come on up.
My great-great-grandparents
made the foundation
for the original homestead.
Been in our family ever since.
Serena's illness pulled every
dollar out of the ranch.
We didn't think we'd
last another year.
This movie, your movie,
it saved us.
We were one month away
from losing everything.
- I had no idea.
- Ah, you shouldn't have.
It's my problem, not yours.
- I'm so sorry, John.
- Ah, don't be.
That's okay.
I didn't want anybody
to know about it.
Think about it.
Everything in my
life is leaving.
My wife died and the
ranch is on life support.
And...
Well, someday soon, Laney's
gonna meet somebody,
and then she's gonna leave,
and then what do I have?
- Bob?
- [chuckles] Bob.
Yeah.
Beyond that, everything
in my life is changing.
Everything.
I look around,
and my way of life doesn't
exist, really, anymore.
People say that Montana is the
last best place in America.
Well, I'm beginning to wonder
whether or not Montana
will even survive.
- You've survived.
- Yep.
- But, yes, the
world is changing.
But isn't that for the better?
Women's rights?
- Yeah.
- Racism.
- Sure, sure.
And I grant you all of
that, but you look at me,
and I represent
every single thing
that you thought
was gone for good.
I had a feeling that when I
first met you, you hated me.
- But I don't hate you, John.
- Yeah, but you did, didn't you?
- John, I don't know.
I mean, you're different.
- Different from every other
white Republican Christian male?
- I guess so.
But what about me?
You judged me too.
- Oh yeah, sure.
All I saw was a left
coast, probably g*y liberal
that was trying to
take over my land.
That was wrong.
Do you believe I hate you?
At my core, do you
believe I hate you?
- I might have given
you a different answer
if you asked me that a week ago.
- [John] Mm-hmm.
- But no, John.
I don't think you hate me.
- As a matter of fact, I don't,
I respect the hell outta you.
- Seriously?
- People followed you here.
You're leading them
to create something.
You left nothing on the table.
You gave it everything.
- You do understand, don't you?
Ironically, I think
better than most.
- We might not
agree on everything,
but when it comes down
to it, I know you.
- Obviously.
- No.
I grew up learning
and earning respect,
and now people come up on TV
and they demand my respect,
regardless of whether
I know them or not.
- Prejudice is born
out of the disregard
to respect other races,
religions, genders.
- Prejudice don't have
nothing to do with it.
When you live in a community
where interactions matter,
you learn your preferences,
and, well, yes, I
guess your prejudices
from person to person.
- But you can't get to know
every person in the world.
You can't spend time with
everyone in the world.
- No, I can't.
- Though I guess you
should make a difference
to those that you
do get to know.
Maybe if you and
I can find a way
not to k*ll each other.
- Ha.
- [Fabian] Then there's
hope for the rest of them.
- Maybe so.
[knocking on door]
- Becca?
- Hello.
Little lady.
[indistinct]
- Hey, girls.
- Do you have a bathing suit?
Do you have something to drink?
- What?
- I'm very thirsty.
I'm sorry.
- Yeah, come in.
- Ooh.
So, Becca, what you
got going on today?
- Recovering from last night.
How are you two so fresh?
So why are we doing on Montana?
- I guess so.
- Did you mean to
pack these or...
- Oh.
- Date night?
- [Rebecca] Uh, character study.
- Oh, that's what they call it.
- That's what they
call it these days.
- What are you guys up to?
Seriously.
- Well, Becca, we
kind of thought
you might like you to have
fun since you aren't sh**ting.
- Does it involve more alcohol?
- Well-
- Because if so,
I have decided that I
am never drinking again.
- No, the best way
to kick that meal
is to drink the day after.
- Mm-hmm.
[girls laughing]
- No.
What is that, a Shelby remedy?
- Works every time.
- Guys, I still have
to work tomorrow.
- Come on.
We just wanna go to the water
and have a little fun
just for a little bit.
- Uh-huh.
Please, please, please,
please, please, Becca.
- Don't do that.
- We'll be so sad if you don't.
- Fine.
- Yes.
- What do I gotta bring?
- Bathing suit.
- Oh.
- [Laney] Perfect.
[bright music]
[birds chirping]
- So this is what
you do all summer?
- Chores in the
morning, work at night,
and this in between.
- Unless you work
in an office here.
- Oh, god.
- Right?
Working in an office here
in the summer is just, ugh.
Such a t*rture.
- I don't think I could do it.
The lake would just
be calling to me.
Shelby.
Shelby.
- Whoa, creepy lake.
- Shelby.
- Oh my God.
- Oh, wow.
- I know.
- I don't think I've ever
heard the lake that way.
- You don't have
our relationship.
- No, you've really
changed this for me.
Whoa. [laughs]
- I mean, this can't be
your entire life, right?
- Go on.
- Yeah, what do you mean?
- It just mean, like,
as great as this is,
there has to be something more
than just hanging out all day
and drinking all night.
Right?
- That's pretty ideal to me.
- And you don't feel like
there's something missing?
- So [indistinct] wrote a
story about a fisherman.
This type of fisherman,
he fished in the morning
and relaxed all day.
Benny, the CEO, he's
watching him and he is like,
"Hey, hey, Chuck.
I have this idea.
If you worked really hard with
all this extra time you have,
you could buy lots more boats,
you could export all these fish,
and you could make
tons of money."
Chuck says, "Well,
then what do I do?"
Benny says, "Whatever you want."
And Chuck says,
"I want to fish in the
morning and relax all day."
- Hmm.
- There you have it.
I guess there is wisdom in that.
- Don't you just feel
like you're racing
from one thing to
another in the city?
- Actually, yes.
Even in rush hour traffic,
you feel like you're
just hurrying,
and then you have to
fight for a position
just to maybe make it somewhere
like five seconds earlier.
- And how do you feel right now?
- Honestly, like I don't
have a care in the world.
- Mm-hmm.
- Ah, look at that.
[girls laughing]
I'm coming, baby!
[water splashes]
[girls laughing]
[indistinct]
- Oh my God.
- Get in.
- Go!
[girls laughing]
[Becca screaming]
[water splashes]
[solemn music]
- Hey.
Morning, John.
[indistinct]
- No, no.
You know, I just...
I just came by to say thanks.
- Yeah, I know.
- Morning, Bob.
- John.
- Good enough.
All right, see you, gentlemen.
[phone ringing]
- [Mom] Spence, rise and shine.
- Mom?
- [Mom] Get to set now.
You're late.
Again.
- Hey, listen.
- [Mom] Spencer, the entire
crew is waiting on you.
Now.
- Yeah, okay.
- Get up.
- Okay, okay.
- [Mom] Get up, get up, get up.
- I'm on my way.
I'm already in the car.
- [Mom] You're late.
Get up.
- I'm already in the car.
- [Mom] Get up, Spence.
Spencer?
- f*ck!
[Spence sighs]
Ugh.
[gentle pensive music]
Okay, today's last.
Just a little.
Today's last.
Yeah.
[gentle pensive music continues]
Young man.
Young man.
Hey, get your sh*t.
Gotta go.
f*ck.
[crew faintly speaking]
- All right, you got this.
It's intense but short.
We'll sh**t the threat first
and then switch weapons
before Spence starts firing.
- Okay?
- Okay.
- Here's your weapon.
Go ahead and ensure it's
a non-firing weapon.
Would anyone else like
to take a look at it?
- Do you wanna see it?
Guys, come on.
What?
It's plastic.
- He really shouldn't do that.
- You know, it's actually
just a rubber g*n,
so I think he's gonna be okay.
- Easy, easy, guys.
- Spence, come here.
- What?
- I need focus
from you right now.
- Yeah.
- Focus.
- Yeah.
- Then intensity.
Let's save the
intensity for the shot.
Okay?
- Yeah.
- Okay.
- I'm good.
- All right.
- Yeah.
- Are you good?
All right, Mike.
- [Mike] Quiet please.
- [Fabian] Sorry about that.
[birds chirping]
All right, we're set.
- [Crew] Marker.
- Spence, when
you're ready, action.
- Now you know what?
You've been a big
problem for me.
But you.
You've been nothing but
a god damn nightmare.
Now, I tried to be
patient with you.
I did, but you
just keep pushing.
But now it's my turn
to do the pushing.
Get on your knees.
- Martin, please.
[slaps]
[body thuds]
- Please.
Martin, Martin, please, please.
Please.
- What?
You're afraid I'm
gonna sh**t you?
Look at me!
Never ever forget I'm the man.
I'm the one with the g*n.
Never, ever forget that.
[suspenseful music]
Bang!
[Dhalia sobbing]
- [Fabian] Cut!
- Right?
It was good.
- That was really great.
- I felt that.
- Ladies, are you okay?
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
- Yeah, it was just...
- What you guys think?
- It was good.
It's just, it just got intense.
I just felt it.
- Okay, so this is
gonna be the single
on Spence firing the g*n.
It is loaded with blanks.
It's loaded with blanks,
so please be careful.
- Yeah.
- Hit it?
- Blanks.
- Perfect.
- Got it.
- [Mike] Okay, it's hot.
- That feels good.
- Spence, just sh**t
the g*n over there.
- Why am I gonna
fire it over there?
- Just fire it away
from the crew, okay?
Please.
- I got it.
- You got it?
- Yeah, I'm good.
- Okay.
We'll just...
- [Spence] Yeah, point this
thing in a safe direction.
- Let's do this.
Mike.
- It's gotta be safe.
Can't just point
this thing anywhere.
Right, John?
- Yeah.
- [Spence] Good thing
you're listening.
- Spence, please.
- Be safe with that.
- Spence.
- What?
No, don't give me that look.
What, I can't put it in the air.
- Calm down, Spence.
- I got it.
I'm fine.
- Don't...
- Just gotta point it
in the right direction.
- That's it.
- Can't point it there.
Can't point it there.
Can't point it there.
Can't point it there.
Can't point it here.
[g*n fires]
[melancholic music]
[melancholic music continues]
[horns honking]
[water burbling]
[footsteps thumping]
- [Fabian] Frank,
thanks for seeing me.
- [Frank] Of course, Fabian.
What can I do for you?
Anything, name it.
- I wanna reopen the project.
- What project is that?
- The last one.
- The one where
Spence k*lled himself?
- Yes, I suppose, yes.
- Fabian, that property died
when Spence pulled the trigger.
- Right, but I've got
an idea that will-
- Fabian, you gotta
let this one go.
No one will touch it.
You'll have to sh**t the
whole thing over again.
- No, Frank, I've
broken it all down.
I only need to reshoot about
And then I-
- And then you still have
the last two weeks.
How you gonna get
Dhalia back on board?
You couldn't really afford
her in the first place.
It's not happening.
I know you can pick something
else up, and it'll fly.
Move on.
- Do you know how much I've
sacrificed for that project?
If you had, you wouldn't
be asking me to abandon it.
- Come on, we've
worked together.
Don't act like I don't know you.
I'm telling you to let
it go because I do know.
- You are the first person to
take a shot with me, Frank,
and I appreciate that.
I truly, truly do.
But I can't give this up.
Please don't ask
me to give this up.
- Then it'll take you down.
- If it comes up,
can you at least push
things in my direction?
- You know I'll do
anything I can to help.
[wall bangs]
[door slams]
- Yes, I understand.
No one will touch
the project, but...
But that makes it the
perfect opportunity to...
Mm-hmm.
Hi, this is Fabian Verdugo
and I was hoping...
[phone beeping]
Really?
All I'm asking is that you
look at what we've shot.
Oh, it's not gonna work out?
Starboard Films isn't a great
name for a studio anyway.
[phone beeping]
[Fabian sighs]
No, I won't be on your podcast!
[glass tinkling]
[birds chirping]
- Hey.
- Hey.
Hey, Dad, there's a
package here from Fabian.
- Dear, John, no one will touch
the project, so it is dead.
I decided to do my own
giving away ceremony
of more my career.
Here is my penny.
I've had it on every sh**t since
the beginning of my career,
so I wanted it to rest to the
spot where my career died.
Fabian.
- Bit overdramatic.
- What do you think?
Maybe the past is
better left to the past.
[solemn music]
- It's over, Kat.
I've called every number,
pulled every favor,
walked into every party or
meeting that I can get into.
- [Kat] Fabian, would you just
listen to me for a second?
- The project is dead, Kat.
- [Kat] Uh-uh.
I got a call from a
small distributor,
and they have some demands,
but some speculative
investor wants to invest
in a project like yours.
- I don't understand.
- [Kern] Let's call
it a fixer-upper.
Since the investors putting
up about half the seed money,
they are willing to
pull for the rest.
Fabian, the movie is back on.
- So what are their demands?
[birds chirping]
- My land?
My land.
My land!
[uplifting music]
My land!
[crowd applauding]
- We did it.
- We did it.
[crowd continue applauding]
[uplifting music continues]
I thought you didn't agree
with the subject of my film.
- Didn't, still don't.
- And yet you were the one
who put up the money for it.
- [John] Yep.
- But how could you afford to-
- I sold the ranch.
- What?
Why?
- You know, I love the
cattle and I love the land,
but every log, every stone,
it just reminded
me of Serena, so...
Perhaps it was just better
I gave that away too.
- But your ranch was
everything to you.
- Yeah, and that's
the point, isn't it?
It's people that make a
difference in your life.
It's not things,
it's not ideologies,
it's, uh, people.
[solemn music]
- You know, I just think that...
Thank you.
- You are welcome.
Is this movie gonna
make me anything?
- Broke?
- No, it'll make
you a few bucks.
You really should
watch it though.
You know, it just got a
standing ovation back there.
- [John] Maybe I'll ask Bob
if he can give me
a job at the ranch.
