No Place Like Home (2006) - full transcript

Yeah. I'll change that for you.

In direction to the camera.

You guys wanted to come towards

the camera?

I wanted to stay where she is.

Ok. Beautiful.

Another magazine, quick.

OK. Now the filter is in there, right?

Yes. Hold on.

I just want to warn you that the

sun is getting brighter.



So we'll get a little -

But listen, you know, the thing is this

way the sun is getting brighter.

We're going to lose her because we were

shooting back light so if, you know?

You know, bear with me.

Just kind of -.

Tie up in the back.

Cameras!

Action!

That she gets - she starts moving around

it's impossible to follow her, you know, it's

like following her with
with a with a shotgun,.

What, she has to go very straight?



Well, yeah, except that
the sun is getting too

bright now.

You know, the thing is
we told her to move, to

move straight and she keeps going

all over the place and
I can't follow the 600.

OK, Don, thank you.

Yeah, but listen, we're gonna break

here. We'll, just to some hand

held shots.

Start the music.

Cut!

I'm sorry. Let's go back.

It was my fault.

It was my fault.

We have to play the music every time.

You have to play the music every time.

You have to play the music every time!

So do you like it?

Of course we like it, I wrote it.

But, you know...

It really

is important to get the move, the right

move, across the meadow with the music.

It looks much better
because if we didn't have

the music, then you'd be walking

any which way you
felt like, this way at least

you have a move. You have the right mood to

move you, ok?

Von?

Yes.

You tell me that the DJ wrote the song?

No her husband wrote the song.

You get a release for the song from your

husband?

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

It was cleared.

In other words, you have
a separate release for

her as the model and from her husband?

Oh yeah. It's all been taken care of.

Okay, ready? Okay.

Paul, are you ready?

Okay. That's nice.

Expose yourself.

Okay.

And I'm gonna roll.

Roll music. Cut! Cut!

Okay. Now, come on now.

OK, standby music.

Ok. Roll

music.

Rolling.

Really great!

OK, let's wrap here.

We'll move to the falls,
we'll do lunch there.

All right. It's a wrap!

93 FM, your favorite station for

sports.

And now the commentary on the crucial day of
this test

between England and the West Indies.

He may not be as quite as quick as
Flores, but he can certainly deliver a

ball swiftly enough...

And here he is running in and out.

That short of a length.

The ball coming through
at a reasonable height.

Right above the waist. As the defense quickly
recovers.

Because like this tree is, is

that you can call pure oaks.

And

saranacs four or five years, right?

This root will grow down to form a trunk.

In

the next couple of years...

You might think it's
like four different trees.

But it's just one tree that started it.

Just from one sprout, one little root. It's
strange.

I would stand right on the root that supports
these tree.

Check this out.

It's like a real locks.

Locks, locks!

Locks that grows, you know, like hair that grows
and is matted. Hair that grows right down like

that.

You can't imagine me with locks?

Locks, standing brave.

This song called

"Dread Knotty, Dread Knotty"

This tree could freak you out!

Look at me at the camera.

OK. We need to reflector there.

Ronnie, what's happening?

Passing through, man.

What are you doing here, man?

Press focus, so you see her behind it, but it

would be sort of covering her.

So there would be the
nude look but we won't see it.

Cut!

It's not very serious, you'll be alright.

It's still a little knotty, right?

I think what really
caused this is being in the

water so long.

I'm just getting old!

PJ, here is what is going to happen.

When I say action, you

take the bottle, very naturally

you bring it towards you.

You open the cap

and pour it in your hand.

And as you're pouring it, smile.

But as natural as it's

possible.

With the label this way,

always.

Go in with your hand behind

it so that the label will be that way.

Like...

That's it.

We have to see the label, PJ.

Now,

just like that. Turn

it over that way.

OK. When you're gonna pour twist it over.

OK?

All right.

OK, let's go. Let's go.

Here we go.

Rolling.

He's all first position.

Second position.

OK. That's beautiful, great.

Hold it there.

Nice.

Really relate to the product.

The smell, you know, going through your

fingers, everything very, very, almost

erotic. You know, a big Miss America smile.

You know.

Want me to do more than I just did?

I can't look at the bottle
and, you know, love

the bottle. It's just a bottle.

I've been doing it naturally.

Love. Just let's try it.

All right.

One more. Just give, you know,

really relate to it.

All right?

You said you wanted
nautral, I don't understand

what you really want.

I don't want to look foolish!

Would you please talk to PJ and tell her to

do whatever Frank wants her to do?

Hello.

Yes.

Yes, it is.

No.

Hi. How are you?

Fine.

Yes.

My office called you? Why? Yeah.

We were out on the beach, we just got back.

Oh, no, they're changing it?

We shot the product today.

All right, Tom is going to bring it?

When is he coming?

Yeah.

Oh, well, that's not bad.

I can have someone meet him. What's

the, what's plate number?

And it gets? Yeah.

Okay, I'll have somebody meet him, yeah.

Oh, pretty good.

You know, usual.

The client - No.

No.

No, it's just the usual.

Good

Well, yeah.

Yes. Yes.

OK.

OK. Thanks a lot for calling, right?

Right. Bye.

OK. Pass to my right?

OK. All right, below me, below

me. No, your right.

Hold it. Change

magazine.

I got a call from the
office and we spoke this

morning.

Seems that the label, the real label, is
finished now.

And they're sending it down to shoot that

instead of a prototype.

Can we do that today?

It's on its way down now.

It'll be here - Tom Daley's flying it in...

By the time they get to the beach it might be
3:30. You

think you could do it today?

I don't think so. We're going to have to

reshoot.

Well, what about the...

wait wait a second. What about all the other

stuff we did yesterday at the falls?

Well, we have to redo that.

Well. The label they
gave us was a prototype so,

you know,

now, suddenly, the real one has come through

and they want us to -

Well what were we doing yesterday?! Were we,

you know, jerking off yesterday?

Well I didn't think that it was going to be
late.

Look, Frank...

Theres's no reason to run into the extra

expense of another day.

Well, there may be a
reason and we need to play

it by ear.

I mean, if we can do
it here we will do it but

if we can't...

We'll work it out.

Where's that fella Carl?

Carl. You know Tom Daley.

Tom is coming down on a plane that gets in

about 1:00 o'clock.

He's got something that we need very, very

important. Will you go and fetch
Tom and bring him back here.

I'll do that.

As quick as you can.

I'm telling you, the tourist business...

The tourist business
was good for Jamaica this

year and I was happy, I'm

particularly happy about the tourist business
being good this year because

I try my best to tell the people

all about the tourist business because the

tourist business is the
money business and the

money business is the rent

business, and you can't
make unless you've got

some money!

So go get some money and once you get some

money, you just might get some love

So you live in Montego Bay?

No, I'm not from Montego,

I'm really from Kingston,
but I go three times

a week for work.

What kind of work?

I dance.

Oh?

No, I'm only going there for an audition.

I really work with

Ivan often.

You serious?

Why? You know?

I know for Ivan for a long time,

we used to dance.

So you're a dancer?

You really know Ivan?

Look, I like you, I can't figure out where we

meet before.

Matter of time. I guess there's a time

for everything.

Not everybody understands that.

But I do.

That's why I don't mess
it myself with just any

and everybody, my dear.

You care to stop for a drink?

Thanks for the lunch.

If it wasn't for you, I would still be out

there in that hot sun, you know.

You think so?

What time do you have to get in?

Not until later this evening.

As a matter of fact, I
think I might just rest

of here.

And go back in the cool.

If you're interested...

There's a place I could take you.

Okay.

Bring two beers.

Leave a car.

I'm going to take a ride.

When asked about the recent raids in

western Jamaica, the commissioner said

they would continue
until he was satisfied that

the link between hippy tourism and the drug

trade were severed, and he

wants to send a strong message.

Hey Tom.

Hey Carl.

I just barely missed you.

I've been here now for about three hours

waiting for you.

I didn't know what to do. Got out the plane.

I didn't see you.

I took the cab, about a million cab guys.

You really got some competition here.

I mean, I never expected you guys on down

here to hustle.

Carl? What happened? What happened this

afternoon?

A problem with the car, that's all.

That's just not good enough. I mean, I've got

to have you doing what you're supposed to be

doing. I've got to have some results from you

or that's it.

I don't need you on the set anymore.

All right.

Tom, I'll see you.

What about money, Carl?

I get paid every day.

What about today?

It doesn'tmatter.

I'm sorry about what happened.

That's cool but next time just tell him how I

operate.

But you know...

It's alright. It's alright.

She's gone. She just took off.

Well, she went with this
driver that we have on

the thing and I just got a lead on him...

Huh? Taxi

driver, man did we put
on the production, hun.

I'm going now to a nightclub to find him.

See if he can help me to find her.

I've got to find her.

I've got to bring it back to New York.

We've got to have her there next week.

I don't know what kind of man he is, he's a

taxi driver, he seems...

Well, he's about six feet tall

and he's got a face...

Yes, I am.

Yes. Yes.

I'm being silly, but the point is this.

I've got to get the
girl. I've got to bring her

back to New York so I won't be back until

Monday. Would you call your office and tell

them that?

No, I don't think I am.

No, Jeff, that is not...

Well maybe it is.

Yeah. All right.

It is. I do need the time.

OK.

No, I don't need five days.

I have to be in New York on Monday.

I'll be back.

Jeff, let me have a couple of days,

if I'm not back in New York then you call the

embassy.

I'm not gonna go out
and beat the bushes. It's a

civilized country. I'll be fine.

It's hard to find a guy that

really blows your mind.

And you just dig everything he does.

Like. Like when he gives you that great big

special hug and

that heavy kiss.

Girls.

You know the kind, the kind

that's in the wrong place at the wrong time.

And it really turns you on.

Then that time happens to all

of us.

We had an argument.

And like all and I mean all those

girls, I said some pretty dumb things [music

[ends]

Hello!

Can we speak for just a minute?

Yes we could.

Sit down?

Oh, thank you. Sorry.

Carl, I have a problem.

We've lost here.

Oh I don't know she's taken off.

Someone told me that
she went off with you the

other day.

She left with me and I give her a ride to the

bus terminal. She told
me that she was getting

out of here.

Well, I've got to find her.

I mean, I've got to take her back to New York

with me.

Well, we might head that way tomorrow.

So you could probably travel with me.

What time would be convenient for you?

About 9:00 in the morning, or so?

9:00, 10:00, I can pick you.

OK, great. Pick me up at the hotel.

Thank you very much.

You're leaving? No...

I don't want to interrupt your evening.

This is Virgie. You know, she's responsible
for

this show, you know.

No kidding! Beautiful.

So, you know, sit down.

We used to dance together
when he first came to north coast.

You still dance?

Not anymore, my dear.

Not with a family and three children.

You want something to drink?

Did

you just feel that you had to be running?

To

be famous? And what do you have to be to

be famous?

And

you, did you come?

So you gave up the idea of being famous.

How famous?

That's how you came to us.

I'd forgotten that Tom told us he had this

man who knew all about Jamaica.

How to put his hands on
everything immediately.

But when I saw you, boy, when I saw this old

car, I thought there is no

way that is our man.

Well, I'm afraid it ended badly

for you.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry that it happened.

There isn't anything left to love.

I mean, the man has become papers

and, and...

Problems.

No, you can't go away,

see, not when you work like he does.

If you go away, there's another

lawyer in another office and your client

can just go right there.

Knock on that man's door...

That man can solve his problem and
make up the paper you would make up.

He loves what he does
and he's very successful.

I mean, it only costs him...

17 hours every day.

Sunday's off most of the time.

And things that he can't
eat, you know, because

his stomach burns, this burning.

And me. I mean me too, you know.

I find you just...

Couldn't go any more. So that's all it

costs him but he's
successful and, so he loves

it.

You can't say that.

Well, you need to bring him to Jamaica, I'll

help him relax.

What would he do here?

Bring him down, man.

No. You don't know...

You don't know that problem, that pressure.

When you go inside,

you see this

coral, beautiful

polished coral.

You're sitting back in the cave.

You look outside.

You see the vines coming down.

You say to yourself "This is an impossbile

place to be, right?

How many places can exist?".

It sounds perfect.

If Adam and Eve, if you know they

were, this is where they woulda been.

Because if they weren't here then they made a

mistake.

When I was a kid, I used to watch Tarzan

swinging on the vines, you know. Like

this is almost like getting back to that

trip, back into nature.

I threw all my shoes away.

I threw all my shoes away.

That means you're not going back, right?

Well, I'll buy a pair of shoes if I go back.

They take pictures and
they show their friends.

Next thing you know, they get on a plane and

they're coming down.

Two and two is four and eight and sixteen and
thirty two.

The progression of life...

Carl, any word from PJ?

Good.

Put your arm on the sign.

Your store.

Want to make it look good.

OK. Beautiful.

Perfect.

I made this one year.

This is most effective to me.

It softens the hair and grows to hair long.

What you read is what you get.

The customers demands it, asks for it.

Well, now, why is it you advertise?

How do they know?

I don't advertise it.

Sometimes I go advertise it in the store.

But he'd advertise it himself?

When one customer
buy it they tell each other.

What we call a 'word of mouth.'

You know?

Yes, I know.

It's great. You don't need an advertising

agency.

I don't totally need it.

If you put everything
on your package, you just

tell what it does, tell how to use

it, and then try and sell it.

Hi. How are you all doing?

Good?

I'm glad I see you all now.

I'm going off to Kingston
for a little while so

I could call it a rental.

It's a bit early, but...

How you doing?

I'm alright.

Any complaints?

Everyone giving me seedy bush.

Just got to compensate for that.

Take care. - All right, bye.

It's you, it's you, it's you I'm
talkin' to!

Wanted for theft. We know who you are

and you're going to get caught.

Those who steal are a
burden to those who pay.

The penalty for stealing electric

power is prosecution, fine,

or a term in prison.

If you are stealing...

You are wanted.

...Yesterday

broke ground for a 600 room hotel.

Turning to the long term development plans,
Mr. Cableton listed the building of an air strip

and of a telephone system.

The expansion of clinical and health
facilities...

Money, money, money,

money, money.

Give me some money man.

Got to be our love on one foundation.

Got to be all love, on one foundation.

There will never be, yeah,

no love at all.

There will never be,

no love at all.

Got to put aside

Maybe segregation, yeah

Got to put aside...

Got to put aside...

There will be

no love at all

Got to build our love on one solid

foundation.

Got to build our love on one foundation.

Or there will never be a single drop of love

Got to build our love on one foundation

What does it mean when people yell like that
from the side of the road?

Really? I fix something...

So, it probably running with no problem.

Then it needed a fix.

But they can only fix it one time.

Then it broke down.

And not it's the way it is. Every
little little thing is the way it is.

Anything at once.

Right?

Right.

...Living in Kingston, it was not right for

me. Water pollution.

Sometimes your nose burn when you take

a deep breath. You just feel upset, you

know?

So I say I cannot stay in the city here.

That place is not my home.

The doctor told me that
I had prostate cancer.

So, I got to leave the town and come

to the country and do some farming.

See if I could get rid
of this terrible disease

that is messing up

my whole body.

So when I

come to country it's what I do to get rid

out of it.

So when I go back to the

doctor, the doctor asks me 'How did

I get rid of that thing?"

And I can say I eat

and feed on the vegetable
like ocra and carrot

and all those things, you know? I find myself

in the bushy part of the country hills here.

Here where these nice birds are singing...

You know, and I do a

little farming and taking a nice

breeze, the breeze is
fresh, man. You know, it

is so very nice to get
up in the morning, take

a walk...

Here in Jamaica it's no exception...

Yes, to the extra satisfaction.

I hear the wind callin' me

away...

They're not going to leave space for you,

Carl.

Can't you see that?
They'll run right over you.

You're from the Spanishtown ploice station, yes?
- Yes sir.

Can you tell us what the

situation is in Spanishtown?

Well there's...

Let's see...

Operator, can you connect me

with the Kingston airport?

I'm trying to reach the Kingston Airport.

No, no, no. I did

dial. I can't get through.

Well, uhh, Air

Jamaica.

Yes. I will hold.

Get
up in the morning slaving for bread, sir...

So that

every mouth can be fed...

Ohh, the Israelites.

Get up in the morning slaving

for bread, sir...

So that every mouth can be fed...

Ohh, the Israelites.

My wife and my kids are
packed up to leave me...

Darling, she said, I was yours to be seen.

Shirt them a tear-up, trousers are gone...

I

don't want to end up like Bonnie and Clyde.

After a storm there must be a calm...

They catch me in the
farm, you sound the alarm.

Things fall apart.

The center cannot hold.

Mere anarchy

is loose on the world.

The slacker prediction...

And the worst are full of passion

and intensity.

We need to examine the social relationships

that are giving rise to this phenomenon,

and why is it that people have lost their

confidence

in commissioners of police and others.

Because the state has failed. It cannot
guarantee to the

people order and justice.

And seems to be making no real effort.

Politics is about self-interest,

not the public interest.

It's about party.

The public interest must be subservient

to these considerations.

The cost of it, to this society, is severe.

And it is going to become even more so.

Yeah Alfred.

Yes.

Oh, I'm sorry. OK, I'm finished.

Thanks very much.

Good afternoon. Jamaica
paradise hotel. How can I help you?

I believe a Carl James works there.

Can I speak to him, please?

Mr. James is the manager of the hotel, ma'am,

and he is late for a meeting.

But if you leave your number, I'll be sure to

give him the message that you called.

Yes, stay for a minute where the

rum come from...

The rum come from, the rum come from...

Relax and have some fun.

The weather may be
cold as ice, cold as ice...

I can tell my people
that Freddy will hlep us.

Listen, in two weeks we'll

option this place.

And we build it in a few years, and we run in

to profits for the past 18 months, so...

This beach here is

worth ten fields, and the
Goldmans is aware of that.

So.

I'm chairman of this one committee

and we plan to develop the entire beach.

Essence of sunflower oil to

renew life, life is sun itself...

Perhaps the only shampoo on earth inspired by
the sun.

He was

morning and I was nighttime...

When

they woke up to find him lying beside my bed.

For I've been lonely in need of someone...

As though I done someone
wrong somewhere, but I

don't know where.

You are the sun, I am the moon, you are the
words, I am the tune...

Song he sang to me...

Words he brang to me.

You are the sun, I am the moon...

You are the words, I am the tune...

And so it was

that I came to travel, up on a road that was
found and now in another place...

You are the sun, I am the moon, you are the
words, I am the tune.

You are the sun, I am moon,

you are the words, I am the tune.

You are the sun, I am the moon,

You are the words, I am the tune...
