[MUSIC PLAYING]
[SHOUTING IN SPANISH]
Felipe, please don't go down.
We closed the mine
because it's not safe.
Of course it's safe.
We must get these
men back to work.
You, my friend, are crazy.
That's right, but I
was born a Solano--
not my choice, my friend.
Buenos dias.
Buenos dias.
Ah, Marcos!
I'll see if it's working.
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
Let's go!
[EXPLOSION]
[PIANO MUSIC]
I guess the only grant
I could apply for now
is federal disaster relief.
Thank you.
Next, Miss Hopkins.
One moment.
Mr. Solano, do you really
want to do this as a career?
I love music.
You are gifted.
You chose the most
difficult of pieces.
Thank you.
It was not on the list.
And he didn't play
the required Chopin.
If you'd bothered to
look at his resume,
you'd see he's a dilettante.
We have one more audition.
Come back next Wednesday.
MALE JUDGE: With the Chopin.
Wednesday, thank you.
[GUN SHOTS]
[SCREAMING]
All right, it's just
another day in Boston.
[HEAVY ROCK MUSIC]
[KNOCKING]
Hello?
Hello!
Hello!
Gee, I'm sorry.
The bedroom's right over there.
To your right?
The bathroom has
a shower, and--
What exactly are you proposing?
Uh, if I were you, I'd
make an offer pretty quick.
You're here to see
the apartment, right?
No, I'm here to see you.
Philip Solano?
I'm a lawyer.
Oh God no, it can't be that bad.
I mean, I can explain
about the credit cards.
Can I get you
something to drink?
Listen, we've got juice.
We've got water.
MARIANA: No, thanks.
I'm Mariana Flores,
you're lawyer.
I'm here about the estate of
your father Felipe Solano.
Estate?
I mean, Felipe Solano, huh?
Yes.
I'm sorry, he died.
He was killed in a mine
accident two weeks ago.
He had no will.
Under Chilean law, as
a [SPANISH PHRASE], a
natural child, you have rights.
Natural child-- yeah, my
mother would have liked that.
Very sixties, you know?
At least it's
better than bastard.
There is one other
heir, your half sister.
She will get 2/3 of the estate.
Wait a minute.
So I have a sister.
How about that?
How old is she?
21.
It would help if
you have any photos,
any personal letters from him,
something that he gave you.
Well, the only
thing he ever gave me
was money for my mother to
have me aborted, all right?
Wait a minute, why am
I telling you this?
Who are you again?
I told you.
I'm here to represent you?
So what's in it for you?
25%.
25% of what?
What exactly are we
talking about here?
At least 10 million.
-Pesos?
-Dollars.
Man!
OK, let's go.
Good.
This is great.
I get to meet my sister.
And I've never been to Chile.
No, no, no-- it's not
possible for you to go.
What?
I haven't planned on this.
I've got to be back here
by Wednesday, all right?
So I'll go to the hearing.
I'll-- I'll sign the papers,
and then meet my sister, and--
Please, Philip, why don't
you just sign these papers
and let me take care of this?
No, I'm going to Chile.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[SPEAKING IN SPANISH]
I thought you
killed him in Boston.
Look.
There's your sister, Patricia.
And her husband, Lorenzo.
She's beautiful.
Yeah, smart too, except
when it comes to picking men.
That's Garrison Carver,
your father's partner,
the one that looks like Lenin.
He owns 49% of Soldeca.
Felipe had the controlling 51%.
Both of them needs your
share to control the company.
That's only if Patricia and
this Carver guy disagree.
MARIANA: They will.
Why are they just
burying him now?
They only reached
his body Friday.
They're still searching.
[SHOUTING IN SPANISH]
Miners-- they blame your
father for closing the mine.
Hola.
JUDGE: [SPEAKING SPANISH]
The judge will take weeks
to figure out the documents.
Hi.
How dare you insult my
wife and family like this.
Hey, hey-- wait!
What did I say?
This is Felipe's son.
What a handsome young man.
You must have your
mother's eyes.
Thank you.
Garrison Carver.
You'll have to
excuse the family.
They just went through
an emotional time.
Felipe never told them
that they had a son.
Well, never told me either.
What do you say you
come by my office.
We'll look at these
papers and talk.
Mariana, you know
where the office is.
Hm!
Philip, whatever you
do, don't sign anything.
I haven't-- yet.
[SINISTER MUSIC]
-I'll wait for you outside.
-OK.
GARRISON: I shipped out of
Halifax, Canada, when I was 14.
I ended up in Hong Kong,
Kowloon side, working in a bar.
I wasn't much
better than a slave.
The owner had one
of these machines,
but he wouldn't let me touch it.
Only sailors and whores.
I saw this machine in
Bangkok last month.
Identical machine,
so I bought it.
Ah, you see?
Tilt doesn't mean anything
when you own the game.
That's one of life's
cruder lessons.
What do you think
about money, Philip?
They say it's the
root of all evil.
The lack of money is
the root of all evil.
I came to Chile with a
lot of money to invest.
Now I have a bankrupt company
and very little money.
Creditors have taken
just about everything.
I wouldn't let them take this.
Nah.
25,000, a new record.
Here, you try.
Are you saying
Soldeca's bankrupt?
Totally.
Come on, play.
I insist.
PHILIP: Hey, my lawyer says that
there's millions in the estate.
Of course she'd say that.
As long as she has you, she
can keep us locked up in court.
Nobody will invest.
We'll be ruined.
I tell you what, why
don't you play for it.
$10 a point-- hell, I just
racked up 25,000 points.
OK, I'll give you $100,000
no matter what you score.
You can't lose.
OK, but if I break your
record, I keep the machine.
Play.
New piano--
Didn't you say it was pesos?
Why don't we just
make it $400,000?
GARRISON: $2,000 in cash,
and a check for $400,00,
and you're on the last
flight out of here tonight.
[BIG BAND MUSIC]
-Philip Solano?
-Yes.
Please, this way.
Mariana has a car
waiting for her.
It's OK, [INAUDIBLE].
So children won't fall out.
Felipe never had a son.
I was a son to him, though
he didn't appreciate it.
A court case would make
dirty the Solano family name.
So for once, gringo, crime pays.
PHILIP: Wait a minute.
This is $100,000.
LORENZO: This is real.
I'm a man of my word.
Sign.
Fuck.
OK, OK Lorenzo.
Bien.
You plane leaves for the
United States tonight.
Don't be late.
Believe me,
nothing in the world
will keep me from
getting on that plane.
Your money will be delivered to
you when you get on the plane.
Um, could you guys
drop me off at--
[GROAN]
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
No, the American consul.
Yes.
[PIANO MUSIC]
Oh my God, I thought it was
your father for a moment.
Did he write this?
It's beautiful.
Although in the
fourth bar, there's
a drop cadence that I'd change.
MARIANA: Now where were you?
I've been waiting for hours.
I made a deal with Carver.
What?
How could you do that?
$400,000, that's how.
And when the check clears,
I'll send you your fee.
But you can get 20 times
more from the estate.
Soldeca's bankrupt.
-Of course he'll tell you that.
-No, I was there.
I was in his office.
It was empty.
They had taken everything.
Soldeca owns the building.
Carver's moving into
Felipe's bigger office.
What are you talking about?
Well it's a bird in hand.
I wasn't born with a silver
spoon in my mouth like you.
This is enough for me.
Philip, there is so much more at
stake here than you know about.
Oh yeah, I heard.
There's a lot more than I know.
I'm talking about 5,000 miners
out of work and their families.
Carver will shut
down the coal mine.
But your father wanted
it reopened, because he
cared about these people.
Hm, how touching.
A caring man.
By an accident of birth,
you have the chance
to help thousands of families.
If I just sign
your paper, right?
Yes, and I'll forget my fee.
Really?
The answer's still no.
So if you're just
here for the money,
then I want to
show you something.
It's on the way to the airport.
Let's go.
You'll find all your
father's private accounts
in these two ledgers
and all his bank
accounts in this computer file.
You were right, I found
at least $6 million
in Swiss accounts so far.
Just keep adding.
I don't believe this.
Please, could you just
leave me alone for a second?
Sure.
PHILIP'S MOTHER: (VOICEOVER)
This month's check was late,
and I need more for
his piano lessons.
As I've made clear
to you before,
Philip thinks that Richard
Bishop is his father,
and any attempt to
communicate with Philip
would destroy the boy.
When you walked out on
us, you gave up any right
to consider him your son.
Neither your money or
your pleas to see him
can change what you
did to me and to him.
My God, she lied-- lied about
everything to do with him,
told him I believed another
man was my real father.
Why?
He was the one supporting us.
He paid my education!
She told me it was her
rich aunt in Switzerland.
What was he really like?
Did he talk about me?
Yes, he did.
You don't have to lie now.
It's the truth.
You're a lot alike--
not on the outside,
but the inside-- the way
you play, and your feelings.
Let's go.
No, no, no.
What do you mean, no?
No, I'm staying in Chile.
-What?
-That's right.
This is not about money
anymore, or my audition.
What is it about, then?
It's about family.
It's about my father.
It's about me.
Please, Philip.
Listen, I'm going to
find out everything
I can about my father.
No, you don't want to know.
Look, I don't mean everything,
Philip, it was probably
not an accident.
Are you saying he was murdered?
Who do you think did it?
That's the problem--
too many suspects
and not enough evidence.
Well then, all the
more reason to find out.
Philip, wait!
It's that whoever did it
won't hesitate to kill again.
Just sign the paper!
Get on the plane, Philip.
No.
You're an impossible,
stubborn gringo, aren't you?
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
And you're a cold hearted,
mercenary bourgeois bitch.
Is that the worst
you can think of?
You're-- you're
a-- you're a lawyer.
What is it?
Oh, it's nothing.
Actually, I thought I
had good news for you.
He didn't show
up at the airport.
I knew that.
You thought you could go
around me and buy him?
I made an offer on behalf
of Patricia, your wife.
You can't buy a Solano.
Yeah, maybe not buy
exactly, but persuade--
on the basis of family.
He signed over his rights to me,
so my wife and I have the 51%.
Let me see that.
This is obviously an
agreement, but these last three
handwritten words--
one starts with a P-H,
and the last one with an
O, but pardon my Greek.
I could swear it says
"Phuck you Lorenzo."
Philip's obviously your
brother and a Solano.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Uh, excuse me.
Do you know where the
newspaper-- [INAUDIBLE].
Thanks a lot.
This is incredible.
WOMAN: My great uncle
started this newspaper
more than 100 years ago.
We have photos in our archive
from the last century.
PHILIP: It's amazing.
WOMAN: We have many
Solano pictures.
Here.
This is your great,
great grandfather.
I can see resemblances.
You've come to the
right place to learn
about your family history.
[INAUDIBLE] and Solano
have been always
together like a married
couple, better or worse.
The mine is the
heart of this town.
And when the heart stopped
beating, the body dies.
That's sad.
Soldeca says that next week
will be my last edition.
When the board of director
meets to sign the town death
certificate, they say that
the mine and the paper
are losing money.
The truth is, Philip, we're
just about breaking even.
There is no future in peat
mining, that's for sure.
Yeah, it's pretty
horrible work.
But when you're born to
it, that's all you know.
We must fine some
other industry.
But for now, the mine
must be reopened.
It's all we have.
There is a reason
you're here now.
God never make mistakes.
You can help save this town.
You're a Solano.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[WEEPING]
PHILIP: You sure there's none?
You didn't see another
[INAUDIBLE], anyone at all?
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
All right, OK.
PHILIP: You said I could
help save this town.
How could I possibly do that?
As the Solano heir,
you will demand the mine
be reopened-- front page.
Every time I say
the name Solano here,
people want to lynch me.
They will love you if
you help save this town.
I'll be right back.
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
PHILIP: Hey Chavela, will
you take a look at this?
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
Smile.
I don't care what anyone says.
I want to talk to him.
Lorenzo won't like it.
But he's my brother.
He's all the family I've got.
Yeah, we'll I'm not totally
convinced of his authenticity.
I'd be careful if I was you.
Ah, it's about time.
[YELLING]
What's wrong?
Lorenzo?
What is wrong with you?
Surprised to see me alive?
Get away from me.
Get away!
Stop it!
You [INAUDIBLE] in my own
house with my own wife.
Hey, you invited him
for a breakfast meeting.
We didn't know where you were.
Yeah, well who else
would want me killed?
Who else?
What are you talking about?
One of your men
tried to kill me.
That is ridiculous.
Come on.
Come on.
Who else?
Well at least 10 husbands
in town that I can name.
I'm sorry, Patricia.
Thank you.
That's it.
LORENZO: Patricia!
Patricia!
Don't be afraid of
losing her, Lorenzo.
Be afraid of losing
everything you have,
because you haven't
looked after business.
The first shipment
arrives next week,
and the minister has
not approved the permit.
He will approve
it, I guarantee it.
Oh, you guarantee it.
Yes, I guarantee it.
He's worried about
the press, what
they'll say about
the nuclear waste
we're putting into the mines.
Well you tell him not
to worry about the press.
I can look after the press.
What I am afraid
of is young Solano
running around Colota alive.
He is our real threat.
No one is going to believe
another accident with a Solano.
Well, it doesn't have
to be an accident.
He can just disappear.
He has no real family to miss
him or inquire about him.
You were good at
people disappearing.
It's what you used to
do in the army, right?
Here it is.
Yep.
Yes!
Roberto Zamorena is still
alive, and his brother Marcos.
What the hell's going on?
There is no answer.
You're sure you got
the right number.
Of course.
Well then hang
up and try again.
Hang up!
[PHONE RINGING]
Yes.
OK.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Uh, bandidos!
[SPEAKING SPANISH].
Uh, Solano-- yes!
Whoa, no.
Hey, you don't understand.
Wait, wait!
Excuse me.
Hey-- hey, uh--
[SHOUTING IN SPANISH]
[PIANO MUSIC]
[WHISTLING AND CLAPPING]
[SINGING IN SPANISH]
[MUSIC STOPS]
[CHEERING]
Hey.
What are you doing here?
Well, I was born here.
This is my town, my people.
No silver spoon.
Oscar, this is Philip.
You know this guy?
What, did you defend him in
some murder trial or something?
Not yet.
Oscar's my uncle, the
wealthy side of the family.
He had a job.
So now you are with the son
of Solano, hey princessa?
My uncle's old fashioned.
He believes in-- in class
struggle and all of that.
He needs a Solano to hate.
Your father was
a son of a bitch.
You are a son of a
bitch, but I like you.
Sometimes I don't
know where I belong.
I know exactly how you feel.
Do you know him?
Yeah, I knew him.
Why?
I have a picture of him above
ground after the explosion.
-Really?
-He's alive.
What do you know about him?
Don't ask me.
Ask Rosa over there.
Buy her a drink.
Um, hola, uh-- hi.
I'm Philip, um,
you know Mariana.
Si?
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
What'd she say?
She said never trust men.
Is that all?
That does say it all.
Rosa, where's-- donde Roberto?
-Roberto?
-Yes.
He's secret-- secreto!
PHILIP: Huh?
He telephone when [INAUDIBLE].
No telephone.
No Roberto.
PHILIP: And Marcos--
donde esta Marcos?
I'd say that he's
long gone from Chile.
No, Marcos say
[SPEAKING SPANISH].
Chacobuco?
Chacabuco.
MARIANA: There's a lot of
Chacabucos in Chile-- Chacabuco
River, Chacabuco Village.
There is a Hotel Chacabuco
in Santiago, too.
[SPANISH].
-What?
-Dance.
Oh no.
Please, no no--
listen, um-- whoa!
Yes?
Oh, hey-- hi.
Excuse me, sir.
No, no, por favor.
No way, Jose.
Oh, you met Jose?
He's [INAUDIBLE]
our national drink.
You don't have any choice.
Por favor.
Come on, drink it.
How do you say designated
driver in Spanish.
Well I think you're
a designated drinker.
Come on.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
No-- when did she get here?
Dear Philip--
MARIANA: (VOICEOVER) Your father
would be very proud of you,
but I know he would want
you safe back in Boston.
Here is your ticket to fly home.
I will let you know what
happens with the estate.
[GROANS]
Donde esta Roberto?
Donde esta Roberto?
-Donde esta gringo?
Philip Solano.
-Have a very good trip, sir.
-Yeah.
That wasn't very nice what
you did to me back there.
What are you doing here?
No, what are you doing here?
How could you
leave me like that?
I was protecting you.
Yes, protecting me.
Is that why you're taking the
only flight that can get you
all the way to Chacabuco,
for my protection?
You have to work with me.
No, I don't.
You wouldn't have gotten
this far without me.
Listen, I've written
a letter to my sister
that turns over my share
until they go to her.
That means that Lorenzo
controls the company
and closes the mine.
Tickets please.
Si.
If you agree to be straight
with me, and if we can
work together, I won't mail it.
Hey, excuse me.
Uh, por favor.
Come on.
Gracias, de nada.
Is that how you
practice law in Chile?
No, at University it was
an extracurricular activity.
By the way, do you
know how to use this?
Sure, you just point it and
shoot like a camera, right?
Yeah, just don't ask
for a smile first.
This is it, Chacabuco.
5,000 people lived
here mining nitrates.
Your family owned it.
PHILIP: What happened?
MARIANA: The boom went bust.
PHILIP: Well, someone could
hide out here for about a year
before we'd ever find them.
There's row C. 11
must be this way.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Well, is this it?
Yes.
Four men with guns.
Over here.
OK.
Oh-- it's Roberto.
Over here.
[GUN SHOTS]
There's a car.
Oh, there goes our ride.
Lorenzo.
[SHOUTING IN SPANISH].
We gotta go.
[MUSIC CHANGES]
PHILIP: Go, stop the train.
-Stop!
Mariana!
Mariana!
[GUN SHOTS]
Donde esta gringo?
Donde esta gringo?
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
MARIANA: There's no use
going to the police.
Lorenzo will have
gotten rid of the body.
PHILIP: What about
Marcos, Roberta's brother?
He's our best chance now.
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
Who did you call?
A fine journalist.
He'll be in Santiago.
I left a message.
What is that?
PHILIP: Get a load of
this, doesn't look good.
What?
This is serious.
You're in big trouble.
-Why?
What does it say?
Solano heir
murders a whore in--
My God, it's Rosa.
-Colota Hotel--
-Wait a minute.
We need to get
out of this town.
They know that we
were on that train.
They will be checking the
airport and the bus station.
How about a boat?
-No, no, look.
They're looking for me, OK?
What about-- what if you rent
a car, is that all right?
The police have
checkpoints every 50
kilometers on the highways here,
and they're looking for us.
All right, we'll split up.
It's OK.
I-- I'll make out.
No, I think we are
together in this.
That's what you
wanted, wasn't it?
[MOTORCYCLE ENGINE]
PHILIP: OK, well
change of plans.
We better lay low
somewhere, travel at night.
Let's get some sleep.
Hey, come on.
You all right?
Philip-- I need to tell you
something about your father.
Oh no-- no please, not now, OK.
Just, I don't want to hear it.
I don't want to
hear another worked.
I just-- all I want to know
is that you and me right now--
Not now.
What?
What, is it some sort of
professional ethics thing?
If that's the problem,
then you're fired, OK?
It isn't that.
I think we should sleep.
I'm so tired.
OK, OK.
I'm just going to sleep.
You know what?
I'm going to take a cold swim.
It would be nice if we could
stop the world and get off.
It's so beautiful.
OK.
It seems they're making
their way to Valparaiso.
They are going to Marcos place.
That's right.
They're fugitives now.
Makes your job a lot easier.
My job?
That's wonderful.
PATRICIA: Thank you.
What are you waiting for?
Get going.
The last time-- this
is the last time.
[PHONE DIALING]
He's on his way.
That's right.
That must be Marcos's
place down there.
[KNOCKING]
[DOOR CREAKING]
MARIANA: Hello?
Marcos?
Marcos Zamorena?
Permiso-- Marcos?
There's Rosa,
Marcos, and Roberto.
PHILIP: In happier times.
[BANGING NOISE]
I don't know if I'm up to
finding another dead body.
[LOUD NOISE]
Stop!
Marcos, stop!
I think he went over there.
-I'll go that way.
You go down there.
Hey, stop!
Hey!
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
What?
MARIANA: No luck.
I must have taken
the wrong turn.
-Did you see him?
-No.
[DOOR SLAMMING]
You've been lying to me
from the start, haven't you?
What are you talking about?
I saw you talking
to him, all right?
You told me to go the other way.
What the hell, has it been
one lie after the other,
is that it?
-Well you should never have--
You should have
never lied to me!
OK, I trusted you.
MARIANA: Philip, I'm just
trying to protect you.
Cut the bullshit, huh?
Carver was right.
Oh god, don't tell me.
Don't tell me you had something
to do with my father's murder.
Lorenzo.
They will kill anyone.
Who?
They killed Marco days ago.
-Who are they?
-Who?
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
I can't kill you.
Mariana, I beg you.
Leave Chile.
Leave.
This is too big.
[INAUDIBLE]
[GUN SHOT]
Oh my God.
Here, hey-- oh-- oh, no.
I didn't want it like this.
I killed your father.
I'm sorry.
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
[GUN SHOTS]
MARIANA: Let's go.
There's a car waiting for us.
No!
No, I'm going to the police, OK?
I can explain everything.
Why should I trust you?
Because whatever we
do, we've had it, OK?
Let's go.
Now, quick!
[GUN SHOTS]
Ah, fuck!
Come on.
[SHOUTING IN SPANISH]
Damn it!
Follow me.
Ah!
Damn it!
Fuck!
[GROANING] Fuck!
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
[DOG BARKING]
[MUSIC SWELLS]
[MUSIC STOPS]
Oh, shit.
PHILIP: Hey man, what
the hell's going on?
The truth this time.
You'll know soon, I promise.
Come on.
Come on, let's go.
Gracias I know a way
in around the back.
I'll open the door for you.
Wait for me.
[LOUD CLAMORING]
[PIANO MUSIC]
Welcome, Felipe.
I thought you were dead.
I thought I'd never see you.
Oh God, you've got
your mother's looks.
God forbid.
Oh man, that was
a beautiful piece.
Thank you, and I know
that you play, too.
I just wish I had a little
more time to work on it.
For 30 years, you know?
30 years, I never heard a
word from you-- nothing.
And now-- now it's
convenient for you,
I just-- you just used me.
You were supposed to
be safe in the states.
I was told I had a sister
and a father who was dead.
The great thing
about being dead
is that you have to
let go of the past.
Can you do that?
But I needed you.
I needed a father--
a real father.
There aren't too many of those.
Felipe, Lorenzo's dead--
shot right in front of us.
Carver-- it's not the miners.
It's Carver.
Why didn't you just tell me?
It was crucial
that no one knew.
I tried to tell you at
the beach last night.
We must hurry.
The border's twelve
kilometers from here.
It should be a good
hike for the full moon.
What kind of shoes do you have?
Wait a minute.
The whole idea was, once we
knew, we would go to the press,
right?
Maybe for the miners,
but not for Carver.
We're not safe here in Chile.
Besides, my son is
wanted for murder.
And killing me has
no consequences.
I'm dead already.
GARRISON: All this
incredible, turn
of the century
architecture-- everything,
all this metal
work, it's for sale.
And I can get
secure government--
MAN: [SPEAKING SPANISH]!
Excuse me, show him the plans.
What?
-We found them?
-Where?
-In [INAUDIBLE].
They're trying to
get into Argentina.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Felipe, um, I don't
know what to call you.
Call me whatever
feels good to you.
What feels good is that
we all go to Colota.
And you see, the press will be
there for that board meeting.
We'll never make it
to that meeting alive.
I don't want to lose you again.
You're never going
to lose me again.
You know, it really is a curse
being born rich and a Solano.
I'm not rich.
You will be when I'm dead, huh?
Listen, see if you can talk
some sense into my son.
He wants to go to Colota to
be buried in the family plot.
He's right, but I'm
the one that's going.
What, is everybody
going crazy around here?
We have to stop Carver.
We need to open the mine.
I can't let you go.
I made a promise to your father.
My father would
expect me to go,
and he would expect
you to go, too.
That settles it.
We have no choice.
We're going to Colota.
Look, you have the right
to be complete fools,
but not dead fools.
Come with us.
When you two have
come to your senses,
I'll be at the German
inn in Mendoza.
I'll wait for 24 hours.
He's walked out again.
[THUNDER]
[MUSIC PLAYING]
You're here to see
the apartment, right?
I'm here to see
you, Philip Solano.
I'm used to being a lawyer.
GARRISON: Mariana--
in the wrong bed.
You know, it's a shame.
You could've been with
me on the winning side.
The two of you have
kept my men quite busy.
You know, uh, a few of my
more unsavory Mexican business
partners have this
saying, "plata o
plomo"-- silver or lead.
And you, my son, have chosen
to turn down the silver.
So what do responsible
citizens like us
do with a couple of
dangerous murderers?
You are the murderer.
The question is, do
we give the police
the opportunity of finding your
body, or do you just disappear?
What do you want?
I mean, disappearing could
be quite interesting.
You mean disappear,
like in go to Argentina?
I'm kind of attracted to
the idea of young lovers
escaping through the
mountains, both murders.
They fall to their death.
Yeah, It's got a
romantic ring to it.
You look after the
details, Pedro.
Yes sir.
I have some pressing
corporate obligations.
I'm going to enjoy
running Soldeca.
You know, you two might
even become a legend.
[CHUCKLING]
Move!
I'm sorry, Philip.
I'm sorry I got you into this.
I'm not.
I'm not sorry at all--
at least 'til this point.
It's not money
couples these days
commit suicide with their
arms tied behind their backs.
HENCHMAN: Shut up!
Step forward.
Why?
Why not just put
two bullets in me?
Let's call it murder,
what the hell?
[GRUNTING]
PHILIP: Go, Mariana Run!
[GUN SHOT]
[GUN CLICKS]
-Fuck!
Fuck!
[SCREAMING]
MARIANA: Philip!
PHILIP: Mariana!
MARIANA: Philip!
Hey, hold on!
[GRUNTING]
FELIPE: Hello there!
Hola.
I can't hold on.
You've got to!
Mariana, just make sure
you've got my legs, all right?
No, don't-- don't--
don't, you'll fall, too.
No, we're going to make it, OK?
God, you are stubborn.
I can't pull you up.
You're going to have to
let go of that arm, OK?
And grab me with
both, all right?
I'm slipping.
PHILIP: On the count
of three- 1, 2, 3!
[GROAN]
[MUSIC SWELLS]
[MUSIC STOPS]
[SHOUTING IN SPANISH]
GARRISON: The risk of moving
hazardous materials is nil.
The waste dump site
is at the harbor.
Now our new-- oh yes, of course.
Before we vote, as
chairman of Soldeca,
I'd like to express the
company's great sorrow
at the recent losses.
And our heart goes
out to the families.
Would you please join me in
observing a moment of silence
for these recent deaths, and for
the loss of our late chairman,
Philip-- uh, Felipe
Solano, whose great
grandfather had the
foresight and vision
to erect this historic venture?
Can I have that
moment now, please?
[DOOR OPENING]
[GASPS]
-Papa!
-Good to see you.
Firstly, I'd like
to thank everyone
for their heartfelt condolences.
[CHUCKLING] Oh, and your flowers
were particularly beautiful.
[INAUDIBLE]
I'm going to put you away
for a long time. [INAUDIBLE].
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[SHOUTING IN SPANISH]
[SCREAMING]
[MACHINERY NOISE]
[MUSIC STOPS]
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[SHOUTING IN SPANISH]
Felipe, please don't go down.
We closed the mine
because it's not safe.
Of course it's safe.
We must get these
men back to work.
You, my friend, are crazy.
That's right, but I
was born a Solano--
not my choice, my friend.
Buenos dias.
Buenos dias.
Ah, Marcos!
I'll see if it's working.
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
Let's go!
[EXPLOSION]
[PIANO MUSIC]
I guess the only grant
I could apply for now
is federal disaster relief.
Thank you.
Next, Miss Hopkins.
One moment.
Mr. Solano, do you really
want to do this as a career?
I love music.
You are gifted.
You chose the most
difficult of pieces.
Thank you.
It was not on the list.
And he didn't play
the required Chopin.
If you'd bothered to
look at his resume,
you'd see he's a dilettante.
We have one more audition.
Come back next Wednesday.
MALE JUDGE: With the Chopin.
Wednesday, thank you.
[GUN SHOTS]
[SCREAMING]
All right, it's just
another day in Boston.
[HEAVY ROCK MUSIC]
[KNOCKING]
Hello?
Hello!
Hello!
Gee, I'm sorry.
The bedroom's right over there.
To your right?
The bathroom has
a shower, and--
What exactly are you proposing?
Uh, if I were you, I'd
make an offer pretty quick.
You're here to see
the apartment, right?
No, I'm here to see you.
Philip Solano?
I'm a lawyer.
Oh God no, it can't be that bad.
I mean, I can explain
about the credit cards.
Can I get you
something to drink?
Listen, we've got juice.
We've got water.
MARIANA: No, thanks.
I'm Mariana Flores,
you're lawyer.
I'm here about the estate of
your father Felipe Solano.
Estate?
I mean, Felipe Solano, huh?
Yes.
I'm sorry, he died.
He was killed in a mine
accident two weeks ago.
He had no will.
Under Chilean law, as
a [SPANISH PHRASE], a
natural child, you have rights.
Natural child-- yeah, my
mother would have liked that.
Very sixties, you know?
At least it's
better than bastard.
There is one other
heir, your half sister.
She will get 2/3 of the estate.
Wait a minute.
So I have a sister.
How about that?
How old is she?
21.
It would help if
you have any photos,
any personal letters from him,
something that he gave you.
Well, the only
thing he ever gave me
was money for my mother to
have me aborted, all right?
Wait a minute, why am
I telling you this?
Who are you again?
I told you.
I'm here to represent you?
So what's in it for you?
25%.
25% of what?
What exactly are we
talking about here?
At least 10 million.
-Pesos?
-Dollars.
Man!
OK, let's go.
Good.
This is great.
I get to meet my sister.
And I've never been to Chile.
No, no, no-- it's not
possible for you to go.
What?
I haven't planned on this.
I've got to be back here
by Wednesday, all right?
So I'll go to the hearing.
I'll-- I'll sign the papers,
and then meet my sister, and--
Please, Philip, why don't
you just sign these papers
and let me take care of this?
No, I'm going to Chile.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[SPEAKING IN SPANISH]
I thought you
killed him in Boston.
Look.
There's your sister, Patricia.
And her husband, Lorenzo.
She's beautiful.
Yeah, smart too, except
when it comes to picking men.
That's Garrison Carver,
your father's partner,
the one that looks like Lenin.
He owns 49% of Soldeca.
Felipe had the controlling 51%.
Both of them needs your
share to control the company.
That's only if Patricia and
this Carver guy disagree.
MARIANA: They will.
Why are they just
burying him now?
They only reached
his body Friday.
They're still searching.
[SHOUTING IN SPANISH]
Miners-- they blame your
father for closing the mine.
Hola.
JUDGE: [SPEAKING SPANISH]
The judge will take weeks
to figure out the documents.
Hi.
How dare you insult my
wife and family like this.
Hey, hey-- wait!
What did I say?
This is Felipe's son.
What a handsome young man.
You must have your
mother's eyes.
Thank you.
Garrison Carver.
You'll have to
excuse the family.
They just went through
an emotional time.
Felipe never told them
that they had a son.
Well, never told me either.
What do you say you
come by my office.
We'll look at these
papers and talk.
Mariana, you know
where the office is.
Hm!
Philip, whatever you
do, don't sign anything.
I haven't-- yet.
[SINISTER MUSIC]
-I'll wait for you outside.
-OK.
GARRISON: I shipped out of
Halifax, Canada, when I was 14.
I ended up in Hong Kong,
Kowloon side, working in a bar.
I wasn't much
better than a slave.
The owner had one
of these machines,
but he wouldn't let me touch it.
Only sailors and whores.
I saw this machine in
Bangkok last month.
Identical machine,
so I bought it.
Ah, you see?
Tilt doesn't mean anything
when you own the game.
That's one of life's
cruder lessons.
What do you think
about money, Philip?
They say it's the
root of all evil.
The lack of money is
the root of all evil.
I came to Chile with a
lot of money to invest.
Now I have a bankrupt company
and very little money.
Creditors have taken
just about everything.
I wouldn't let them take this.
Nah.
25,000, a new record.
Here, you try.
Are you saying
Soldeca's bankrupt?
Totally.
Come on, play.
I insist.
PHILIP: Hey, my lawyer says that
there's millions in the estate.
Of course she'd say that.
As long as she has you, she
can keep us locked up in court.
Nobody will invest.
We'll be ruined.
I tell you what, why
don't you play for it.
$10 a point-- hell, I just
racked up 25,000 points.
OK, I'll give you $100,000
no matter what you score.
You can't lose.
OK, but if I break your
record, I keep the machine.
Play.
New piano--
Didn't you say it was pesos?
Why don't we just
make it $400,000?
GARRISON: $2,000 in cash,
and a check for $400,00,
and you're on the last
flight out of here tonight.
[BIG BAND MUSIC]
-Philip Solano?
-Yes.
Please, this way.
Mariana has a car
waiting for her.
It's OK, [INAUDIBLE].
So children won't fall out.
Felipe never had a son.
I was a son to him, though
he didn't appreciate it.
A court case would make
dirty the Solano family name.
So for once, gringo, crime pays.
PHILIP: Wait a minute.
This is $100,000.
LORENZO: This is real.
I'm a man of my word.
Sign.
Fuck.
OK, OK Lorenzo.
Bien.
You plane leaves for the
United States tonight.
Don't be late.
Believe me,
nothing in the world
will keep me from
getting on that plane.
Your money will be delivered to
you when you get on the plane.
Um, could you guys
drop me off at--
[GROAN]
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
No, the American consul.
Yes.
[PIANO MUSIC]
Oh my God, I thought it was
your father for a moment.
Did he write this?
It's beautiful.
Although in the
fourth bar, there's
a drop cadence that I'd change.
MARIANA: Now where were you?
I've been waiting for hours.
I made a deal with Carver.
What?
How could you do that?
$400,000, that's how.
And when the check clears,
I'll send you your fee.
But you can get 20 times
more from the estate.
Soldeca's bankrupt.
-Of course he'll tell you that.
-No, I was there.
I was in his office.
It was empty.
They had taken everything.
Soldeca owns the building.
Carver's moving into
Felipe's bigger office.
What are you talking about?
Well it's a bird in hand.
I wasn't born with a silver
spoon in my mouth like you.
This is enough for me.
Philip, there is so much more at
stake here than you know about.
Oh yeah, I heard.
There's a lot more than I know.
I'm talking about 5,000 miners
out of work and their families.
Carver will shut
down the coal mine.
But your father wanted
it reopened, because he
cared about these people.
Hm, how touching.
A caring man.
By an accident of birth,
you have the chance
to help thousands of families.
If I just sign
your paper, right?
Yes, and I'll forget my fee.
Really?
The answer's still no.
So if you're just
here for the money,
then I want to
show you something.
It's on the way to the airport.
Let's go.
You'll find all your
father's private accounts
in these two ledgers
and all his bank
accounts in this computer file.
You were right, I found
at least $6 million
in Swiss accounts so far.
Just keep adding.
I don't believe this.
Please, could you just
leave me alone for a second?
Sure.
PHILIP'S MOTHER: (VOICEOVER)
This month's check was late,
and I need more for
his piano lessons.
As I've made clear
to you before,
Philip thinks that Richard
Bishop is his father,
and any attempt to
communicate with Philip
would destroy the boy.
When you walked out on
us, you gave up any right
to consider him your son.
Neither your money or
your pleas to see him
can change what you
did to me and to him.
My God, she lied-- lied about
everything to do with him,
told him I believed another
man was my real father.
Why?
He was the one supporting us.
He paid my education!
She told me it was her
rich aunt in Switzerland.
What was he really like?
Did he talk about me?
Yes, he did.
You don't have to lie now.
It's the truth.
You're a lot alike--
not on the outside,
but the inside-- the way
you play, and your feelings.
Let's go.
No, no, no.
What do you mean, no?
No, I'm staying in Chile.
-What?
-That's right.
This is not about money
anymore, or my audition.
What is it about, then?
It's about family.
It's about my father.
It's about me.
Please, Philip.
Listen, I'm going to
find out everything
I can about my father.
No, you don't want to know.
Look, I don't mean everything,
Philip, it was probably
not an accident.
Are you saying he was murdered?
Who do you think did it?
That's the problem--
too many suspects
and not enough evidence.
Well then, all the
more reason to find out.
Philip, wait!
It's that whoever did it
won't hesitate to kill again.
Just sign the paper!
Get on the plane, Philip.
No.
You're an impossible,
stubborn gringo, aren't you?
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
And you're a cold hearted,
mercenary bourgeois bitch.
Is that the worst
you can think of?
You're-- you're
a-- you're a lawyer.
What is it?
Oh, it's nothing.
Actually, I thought I
had good news for you.
He didn't show
up at the airport.
I knew that.
You thought you could go
around me and buy him?
I made an offer on behalf
of Patricia, your wife.
You can't buy a Solano.
Yeah, maybe not buy
exactly, but persuade--
on the basis of family.
He signed over his rights to me,
so my wife and I have the 51%.
Let me see that.
This is obviously an
agreement, but these last three
handwritten words--
one starts with a P-H,
and the last one with an
O, but pardon my Greek.
I could swear it says
"Phuck you Lorenzo."
Philip's obviously your
brother and a Solano.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Uh, excuse me.
Do you know where the
newspaper-- [INAUDIBLE].
Thanks a lot.
This is incredible.
WOMAN: My great uncle
started this newspaper
more than 100 years ago.
We have photos in our archive
from the last century.
PHILIP: It's amazing.
WOMAN: We have many
Solano pictures.
Here.
This is your great,
great grandfather.
I can see resemblances.
You've come to the
right place to learn
about your family history.
[INAUDIBLE] and Solano
have been always
together like a married
couple, better or worse.
The mine is the
heart of this town.
And when the heart stopped
beating, the body dies.
That's sad.
Soldeca says that next week
will be my last edition.
When the board of director
meets to sign the town death
certificate, they say that
the mine and the paper
are losing money.
The truth is, Philip, we're
just about breaking even.
There is no future in peat
mining, that's for sure.
Yeah, it's pretty
horrible work.
But when you're born to
it, that's all you know.
We must fine some
other industry.
But for now, the mine
must be reopened.
It's all we have.
There is a reason
you're here now.
God never make mistakes.
You can help save this town.
You're a Solano.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[WEEPING]
PHILIP: You sure there's none?
You didn't see another
[INAUDIBLE], anyone at all?
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
All right, OK.
PHILIP: You said I could
help save this town.
How could I possibly do that?
As the Solano heir,
you will demand the mine
be reopened-- front page.
Every time I say
the name Solano here,
people want to lynch me.
They will love you if
you help save this town.
I'll be right back.
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
PHILIP: Hey Chavela, will
you take a look at this?
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
Smile.
I don't care what anyone says.
I want to talk to him.
Lorenzo won't like it.
But he's my brother.
He's all the family I've got.
Yeah, we'll I'm not totally
convinced of his authenticity.
I'd be careful if I was you.
Ah, it's about time.
[YELLING]
What's wrong?
Lorenzo?
What is wrong with you?
Surprised to see me alive?
Get away from me.
Get away!
Stop it!
You [INAUDIBLE] in my own
house with my own wife.
Hey, you invited him
for a breakfast meeting.
We didn't know where you were.
Yeah, well who else
would want me killed?
Who else?
What are you talking about?
One of your men
tried to kill me.
That is ridiculous.
Come on.
Come on.
Who else?
Well at least 10 husbands
in town that I can name.
I'm sorry, Patricia.
Thank you.
That's it.
LORENZO: Patricia!
Patricia!
Don't be afraid of
losing her, Lorenzo.
Be afraid of losing
everything you have,
because you haven't
looked after business.
The first shipment
arrives next week,
and the minister has
not approved the permit.
He will approve
it, I guarantee it.
Oh, you guarantee it.
Yes, I guarantee it.
He's worried about
the press, what
they'll say about
the nuclear waste
we're putting into the mines.
Well you tell him not
to worry about the press.
I can look after the press.
What I am afraid
of is young Solano
running around Colota alive.
He is our real threat.
No one is going to believe
another accident with a Solano.
Well, it doesn't have
to be an accident.
He can just disappear.
He has no real family to miss
him or inquire about him.
You were good at
people disappearing.
It's what you used to
do in the army, right?
Here it is.
Yep.
Yes!
Roberto Zamorena is still
alive, and his brother Marcos.
What the hell's going on?
There is no answer.
You're sure you got
the right number.
Of course.
Well then hang
up and try again.
Hang up!
[PHONE RINGING]
Yes.
OK.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Uh, bandidos!
[SPEAKING SPANISH].
Uh, Solano-- yes!
Whoa, no.
Hey, you don't understand.
Wait, wait!
Excuse me.
Hey-- hey, uh--
[SHOUTING IN SPANISH]

[WHISTLING AND CLAPPING]
[SINGING IN SPANISH]
[MUSIC STOPS]
[CHEERING]
Hey.
What are you doing here?
Well, I was born here.
This is my town, my people.
No silver spoon.
Oscar, this is Philip.
You know this guy?
What, did you defend him in
some murder trial or something?
Not yet.
Oscar's my uncle, the
wealthy side of the family.
He had a job.
So now you are with the son
of Solano, hey princessa?
My uncle's old fashioned.
He believes in-- in class
struggle and all of that.
He needs a Solano to hate.
Your father was
a son of a bitch.
You are a son of a
bitch, but I like you.
Sometimes I don't
know where I belong.
I know exactly how you feel.
Do you know him?
Yeah, I knew him.
Why?
I have a picture of him above
ground after the explosion.
-Really?
-He's alive.
What do you know about him?
Don't ask me.
Ask Rosa over there.
Buy her a drink.
Um, hola, uh-- hi.
I'm Philip, um,
you know Mariana.
Si?
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
What'd she say?
She said never trust men.
Is that all?
That does say it all.
Rosa, where's-- donde Roberto?
-Roberto?
-Yes.
He's secret-- secreto!
PHILIP: Huh?
He telephone when [INAUDIBLE].
No telephone.
No Roberto.
PHILIP: And Marcos--
donde esta Marcos?
I'd say that he's
long gone from Chile.
No, Marcos say
[SPEAKING SPANISH].
Chacobuco?
Chacabuco.
MARIANA: There's a lot of
Chacabucos in Chile-- Chacabuco
River, Chacabuco Village.
There is a Hotel Chacabuco
in Santiago, too.
[SPANISH].
-What?
-Dance.
Oh no.
Please, no no--
listen, um-- whoa!
Yes?
Oh, hey-- hi.
Excuse me, sir.
No, no, por favor.
No way, Jose.
Oh, you met Jose?
He's [INAUDIBLE]
our national drink.
You don't have any choice.
Por favor.
Come on, drink it.
How do you say designated
driver in Spanish.
Well I think you're
a designated drinker.
Come on.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
No-- when did she get here?
Dear Philip--
MARIANA: (VOICEOVER) Your father
would be very proud of you,
but I know he would want
you safe back in Boston.
Here is your ticket to fly home.
I will let you know what
happens with the estate.
[GROANS]
Donde esta Roberto?
Donde esta Roberto?
-Donde esta gringo?
Philip Solano.
-Have a very good trip, sir.
-Yeah.
That wasn't very nice what
you did to me back there.
What are you doing here?
No, what are you doing here?
How could you
leave me like that?
I was protecting you.
Yes, protecting me.
Is that why you're taking the
only flight that can get you
all the way to Chacabuco,
for my protection?
You have to work with me.
No, I don't.
You wouldn't have gotten
this far without me.
Listen, I've written
a letter to my sister
that turns over my share
until they go to her.
That means that Lorenzo
controls the company
and closes the mine.
Tickets please.
Si.
If you agree to be straight
with me, and if we can
work together, I won't mail it.
Hey, excuse me.
Uh, por favor.
Come on.
Gracias, de nada.
Is that how you
practice law in Chile?
No, at University it was
an extracurricular activity.
By the way, do you
know how to use this?
Sure, you just point it and
shoot like a camera, right?
Yeah, just don't ask
for a smile first.
This is it, Chacabuco.
5,000 people lived
here mining nitrates.
Your family owned it.
PHILIP: What happened?
MARIANA: The boom went bust.
PHILIP: Well, someone could
hide out here for about a year
before we'd ever find them.
There's row C. 11
must be this way.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Well, is this it?
Yes.
Four men with guns.
Over here.
OK.
Oh-- it's Roberto.
Over here.
[GUN SHOTS]
There's a car.
Oh, there goes our ride.
Lorenzo.
[SHOUTING IN SPANISH].
We gotta go.
[MUSIC CHANGES]
PHILIP: Go, stop the train.
-Stop!
Mariana!
Mariana!
[GUN SHOTS]
Donde esta gringo?
Donde esta gringo?
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
MARIANA: There's no use
going to the police.
Lorenzo will have
gotten rid of the body.
PHILIP: What about
Marcos, Roberta's brother?
He's our best chance now.
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
Who did you call?
A fine journalist.
He'll be in Santiago.
I left a message.
What is that?
PHILIP: Get a load of
this, doesn't look good.
What?
This is serious.
You're in big trouble.
-Why?
What does it say?
Solano heir
murders a whore in--
My God, it's Rosa.
-Colota Hotel--
-Wait a minute.
We need to get
out of this town.
They know that we
were on that train.
They will be checking the
airport and the bus station.
How about a boat?
-No, no, look.
They're looking for me, OK?
What about-- what if you rent
a car, is that all right?
The police have
checkpoints every 50
kilometers on the highways here,
and they're looking for us.
All right, we'll split up.
It's OK.
I-- I'll make out.
No, I think we are
together in this.
That's what you
wanted, wasn't it?
[MOTORCYCLE ENGINE]
PHILIP: OK, well
change of plans.
We better lay low
somewhere, travel at night.
Let's get some sleep.
Hey, come on.
You all right?
Philip-- I need to tell you
something about your father.
Oh no-- no please, not now, OK.
Just, I don't want to hear it.
I don't want to
hear another worked.
I just-- all I want to know
is that you and me right now--
Not now.
What?
What, is it some sort of
professional ethics thing?
If that's the problem,
then you're fired, OK?
It isn't that.
I think we should sleep.
I'm so tired.
OK, OK.
I'm just going to sleep.
You know what?
I'm going to take a cold swim.
It would be nice if we could
stop the world and get off.
It's so beautiful.
OK.
It seems they're making
their way to Valparaiso.
They are going to Marcos place.
That's right.
They're fugitives now.
Makes your job a lot easier.
My job?
That's wonderful.
PATRICIA: Thank you.
What are you waiting for?
Get going.
The last time-- this
is the last time.
[PHONE DIALING]
He's on his way.
That's right.
That must be Marcos's
place down there.
[KNOCKING]
[DOOR CREAKING]
MARIANA: Hello?
Marcos?
Marcos Zamorena?
Permiso-- Marcos?
There's Rosa,
Marcos, and Roberto.
PHILIP: In happier times.
[BANGING NOISE]
I don't know if I'm up to
finding another dead body.
[LOUD NOISE]
Stop!
Marcos, stop!
I think he went over there.
-I'll go that way.
You go down there.
Hey, stop!
Hey!
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
What?
MARIANA: No luck.
I must have taken
the wrong turn.
-Did you see him?
-No.
[DOOR SLAMMING]
You've been lying to me
from the start, haven't you?
What are you talking about?
I saw you talking
to him, all right?
You told me to go the other way.
What the hell, has it been
one lie after the other,
is that it?
-Well you should never have--
You should have
never lied to me!
OK, I trusted you.
MARIANA: Philip, I'm just
trying to protect you.
Cut the bullshit, huh?
Carver was right.
Oh god, don't tell me.
Don't tell me you had something
to do with my father's murder.
Lorenzo.
They will kill anyone.
Who?
They killed Marco days ago.
-Who are they?
-Who?
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
I can't kill you.
Mariana, I beg you.
Leave Chile.
Leave.
This is too big.
[INAUDIBLE]
[GUN SHOT]
Oh my God.
Here, hey-- oh-- oh, no.
I didn't want it like this.
I killed your father.
I'm sorry.
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
[GUN SHOTS]
MARIANA: Let's go.
There's a car waiting for us.
No!
No, I'm going to the police, OK?
I can explain everything.
Why should I trust you?
Because whatever we
do, we've had it, OK?
Let's go.
Now, quick!
[GUN SHOTS]
Ah, fuck!
Come on.
[SHOUTING IN SPANISH]
Damn it!
Follow me.
Ah!
Damn it!
Fuck!
[GROANING] Fuck!
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
[DOG BARKING]
[MUSIC SWELLS]
[MUSIC STOPS]
Oh, shit.
PHILIP: Hey man, what
the hell's going on?
The truth this time.
You'll know soon, I promise.
Come on.
Come on, let's go.
Gracias I know a way
in around the back.
I'll open the door for you.
Wait for me.
[LOUD CLAMORING]
[PIANO MUSIC]
Welcome, Felipe.
I thought you were dead.
I thought I'd never see you.
Oh God, you've got
your mother's looks.
God forbid.
Oh man, that was
a beautiful piece.
Thank you, and I know
that you play, too.
I just wish I had a little
more time to work on it.
For 30 years, you know?
30 years, I never heard a
word from you-- nothing.
And now-- now it's
convenient for you,
I just-- you just used me.
You were supposed to
be safe in the states.
I was told I had a sister
and a father who was dead.
The great thing
about being dead
is that you have to
let go of the past.
Can you do that?
But I needed you.
I needed a father--
a real father.
There aren't too many of those.
Felipe, Lorenzo's dead--
shot right in front of us.
Carver-- it's not the miners.
It's Carver.
Why didn't you just tell me?
It was crucial
that no one knew.
I tried to tell you at
the beach last night.
We must hurry.
The border's twelve
kilometers from here.
It should be a good
hike for the full moon.
What kind of shoes do you have?
Wait a minute.
The whole idea was, once we
knew, we would go to the press,
right?
Maybe for the miners,
but not for Carver.
We're not safe here in Chile.
Besides, my son is
wanted for murder.
And killing me has
no consequences.
I'm dead already.
GARRISON: All this
incredible, turn
of the century
architecture-- everything,
all this metal
work, it's for sale.
And I can get
secure government--
MAN: [SPEAKING SPANISH]!
Excuse me, show him the plans.
What?
-We found them?
-Where?
-In [INAUDIBLE].
They're trying to
get into Argentina.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Felipe, um, I don't
know what to call you.
Call me whatever
feels good to you.
What feels good is that
we all go to Colota.
And you see, the press will be
there for that board meeting.
We'll never make it
to that meeting alive.
I don't want to lose you again.
You're never going
to lose me again.
You know, it really is a curse
being born rich and a Solano.
I'm not rich.
You will be when I'm dead, huh?
Listen, see if you can talk
some sense into my son.
He wants to go to Colota to
be buried in the family plot.
He's right, but I'm
the one that's going.
What, is everybody
going crazy around here?
We have to stop Carver.
We need to open the mine.
I can't let you go.
I made a promise to your father.
My father would
expect me to go,
and he would expect
you to go, too.
That settles it.
We have no choice.
We're going to Colota.
Look, you have the right
to be complete fools,
but not dead fools.
Come with us.
When you two have
come to your senses,
I'll be at the German
inn in Mendoza.
I'll wait for 24 hours.
He's walked out again.
[THUNDER]
[MUSIC PLAYING]
You're here to see
the apartment, right?
I'm here to see
you, Philip Solano.
I'm used to being a lawyer.
GARRISON: Mariana--
in the wrong bed.
You know, it's a shame.
You could've been with
me on the winning side.
The two of you have
kept my men quite busy.
You know, uh, a few of my
more unsavory Mexican business
partners have this
saying, "plata o
plomo"-- silver or lead.
And you, my son, have chosen
to turn down the silver.
So what do responsible
citizens like us
do with a couple of
dangerous murderers?
You are the murderer.
The question is, do
we give the police
the opportunity of finding your
body, or do you just disappear?
What do you want?
I mean, disappearing could
be quite interesting.
You mean disappear,
like in go to Argentina?
I'm kind of attracted to
the idea of young lovers
escaping through the
mountains, both murders.
They fall to their death.
Yeah, It's got a
romantic ring to it.
You look after the
details, Pedro.
Yes sir.
I have some pressing
corporate obligations.
I'm going to enjoy
running Soldeca.
You know, you two might
even become a legend.
[CHUCKLING]
Move!
I'm sorry, Philip.
I'm sorry I got you into this.
I'm not.
I'm not sorry at all--
at least 'til this point.
It's not money
couples these days
commit suicide with their
arms tied behind their backs.
HENCHMAN: Shut up!
Step forward.
Why?
Why not just put
two bullets in me?
Let's call it murder,
what the hell?
[GRUNTING]
PHILIP: Go, Mariana Run!
[GUN SHOT]
[GUN CLICKS]
-Fuck!
Fuck!
[SCREAMING]
MARIANA: Philip!
PHILIP: Mariana!
MARIANA: Philip!
Hey, hold on!
[GRUNTING]
FELIPE: Hello there!
Hola.
I can't hold on.
You've got to!
Mariana, just make sure
you've got my legs, all right?
No, don't-- don't--
don't, you'll fall, too.
No, we're going to make it, OK?
God, you are stubborn.
I can't pull you up.
You're going to have to
let go of that arm, OK?
And grab me with
both, all right?
I'm slipping.
PHILIP: On the count
of three- 1, 2, 3!
[GROAN]
[MUSIC SWELLS]

[SHOUTING IN SPANISH]
GARRISON: The risk of moving
hazardous materials is nil.
The waste dump site
is at the harbor.
Now our new-- oh yes, of course.
Before we vote, as
chairman of Soldeca,
I'd like to express the
company's great sorrow
at the recent losses.
And our heart goes
out to the families.
Would you please join me in
observing a moment of silence
for these recent deaths, and for
the loss of our late chairman,
Philip-- uh, Felipe
Solano, whose great
grandfather had the
foresight and vision
to erect this historic venture?
Can I have that
moment now, please?
[DOOR OPENING]
[GASPS]
-Papa!
-Good to see you.
Firstly, I'd like
to thank everyone
for their heartfelt condolences.
[CHUCKLING] Oh, and your flowers
were particularly beautiful.
[INAUDIBLE]
I'm going to put you away
for a long time. [INAUDIBLE].
