Time to Run (1973) - full transcript

(woman)
"STILL WITH UNHURRYING CHASE
AND UNPERTURBED PACE,

"CAME ON THE FOLLOWING FEET,
AND A VOICE ABOVE THEIR BEAT,

"'NAUGHT SHELTERS THEE
WHO WILT NOT SHELTER ME."

[snoring sounds]

COME ON!
[laughing]

WE'VE GOT
THREE PAGES TO GO.

IT TAKES THIS GUY FOREVER
TO SAY WHAT'S ON HIS MIND.

HE'S REALLY HUNG UP
ON WORDS.

BUT IT'S,
IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL.

NOW LISTEN.

"BUT STILL WITHIN
THE LITTLE CHILDREN'S EYES



"SEEMS SOMETHING,
SOMETHING THAT REPLIES,

"THEY AT LEAST ARE FOR ME,
SURELY FOR ME."

IT SOUNDS LIKE
YOU'VE ALREADY READ IT.

SO?

SO GIVE IT TO ME
IN ONE SENTENCE.

[sighs]

IT'S ABOUT HOW
FRANCIS THOMPSON

TRIED TO RUN AWAY
FROM GOD ALL HIS LIFE...

UH-HUH.

BUT HE COULDN'T.

AND THAT'S WHY
HE CALLED HIM
THE HOUND OF HEAVEN.

"I FLED HIM DOWN THE NIGHTS
AND DOWN THE DAYS

"I FLED HIM DOWN THE ARCHES
OF THE YEARS;

"I FLED HIM DOWN
THE LABYRINTHINE WAYS



"OF MY OWN MIND;

"AND IN THE MIDST
OF TEARS..."

YEAH, WELL, THAT'S
A PRETTY HEAVY
SUBJECT.

I DON'T GUESS YOU CAN
EXPECT HIM

TO SAY IT
IN A PARAGRAPH.

HEY, UH, YOU SURE
YOU DIDN'T PICK
THIS ASSIGNMENT?

WILL YOU SHUT UP
AND LISTEN?

"I HID FROM HIM,
AND UNDER RUNNING LAUGHTER

"UP...VISTED...
HOPES I SPED..."

HEY, UH,

"LET ME GREET YOU
LIP TO LIP.

"LET ME TWINE YOU
WITH CARESSES."

WE HAVE ONE MORE ITEM
OF BUSINESS,

AND I'M SURE THIS WON'T COME AS
A SURPRISE TO ANYONE...

THAT THIS YEAR,

OUR INDUSTRIAL ACHIEVEMENT
AWARD GOES TO...

WARREN COLE!

[applause]

WELL, I, UH...

I HAD AN IDEA SOMETHING
LIKE THIS MIGHT HAPPEN SO...

[laughter]

(reporter)
...ON CAMPUS THIS AFTERNOON,

AND I'VE ASKED SOME OF
THE STUDENTS

WHAT THEY FELT ABOUT
FAEMAD.

WELL, LET'S FIND OUT,

LET'S TALK TO
SOME MORE OF THEM.

(Warren Cole)
THAT COMPLEX THAT WE'VE BEEN
BUILDING OUT THERE,

IS NOT A, A PILOT PLANT
FOR POWER DISTRIBUTION.

YOU'VE BEEN LISTENING,
WHAT ABOUT YOU?

OH, MAN, THAT'S NOT MY BAG,
I'M NOT INTERESTED.

(Jeff Cole)
I THINK IT'S THE GREATEST
THING TO HIT THIS TOWN

SINCE THE ELECTRIC
TOOTHPICK.

[chuckling]

OH, THAT'S
A CURIOUS ANALOGY.

UH, WOULD YOU CARE TO
EXPLAIN THAT?

NOT REALLY.

WE ACHIEVE MORE
IN SATISFACTION OF OUR NEEDS

WITH FEWER MAN HOURS OF LABOR
BECAUSE OF POWER AND ENERGY

THAN ANY OTHER COUNTRY
IN THE WORLD.

WELL, WAIT, YOU OBVIOUSLY
HAVE A STRONG OPINION.

NAH, UH-HUH.

BUT I HAVE A LOT
OF QUESTIONS.

[Jeff on TV]
DOES ANYBODY HAPPEN TO KNOW
WHAT WOULD GO WRONG

IF SOME LITTLE THING

HAPPENED TO OUR COMMUNITY
ATOMIC REACTOR?

YOU KNOW,
AND JUST HOW MANY JOBS

UH, WILL AUTOMATION TAKE AWAY
FROM THE PEOPLE

THAT JUST DON'T HAPPEN TO HAVE
AN ENGINEERING DEGREE?

AND WHAT ARE THEY GOING TO DO
WITH THE HOT WASTE?

HOW MUCH MORE OF OUR SHORELINE
WILL HAVE TO BE CORDONED OFF

FROM PUBLIC USE WHENEVER
THE POWER DEMAND IS LOW,

AND THE HEAT GENERATED GETS
RE-ROUTED BACK INTO THE SEA?

AND WE BELIEVE THAT THIS MASSIVE
INSTALLATION OF OURS

IS TRULY A LIVING SYMBOL
OF WHAT MAN CAN ACCOMPLISH

WHEN HIS HEART AND HIS MIND
ARE HARNESSED

TO THE SERVICE OF HUMANITY.

AND ISN'T IT TRUE THAT FAEMAD'S
VERY BIGGEST CUSTOMER

ISN'T GOING TO BE...

[phone rings]

...THE LITTLE HOUSEWIFE
WITH HER WASHING MACHINE.

IT'S GOING TO BE
THE INDUSTRIAL MILITARY COMPLEX

[phone continues to ring]

HELLO?

I KNOW, DOTTIE, BUT...

WELL, WE'VE ALWAYS
GIVEN HIM FREEDOM.

THANK YOU, GENTLEMEN,
VERY MUCH

FOR THIS VERY GRATIFYING
AWARD, THANK YOU.

[applause]

[phone rings]

I'LL GET IT!

HELLO?

WELL, I'M AFRAID I CAN'T
MAKE ANY COMMENT ABOUT THAT

UNTIL I'VE SEEN
THE TRANSCRIPT.

WELL, YOU CAN QUOTE ME:
NO COMMENT!

ALL RIGHT.

WARREN, I DON'T THINK
HE MEANT...

LOOKS LIKE WE'RE GONNA
MAKE THE PAPERS.

HI!

WHAT'S FOR DINNER?

MEATLOAF...

WITH RANCOR!

HE'S IN THE DEN.

OH, OKAY, NO PROBLEM.

HI.

HEY, WHERE'S YOUR...
YOUR SOAPBOX, EH?

OH.

YOU HAD YOUR LITTLE
MOMENT IN THE SUN,
I HAD MINE.

IS THAT ALL YOU'VE
GOT TO SAY?

CONGRATULATIONS.

LOOKS LIKE I RAISED
A KID WITH A WHALE
OF A BIG MOUTH.

"THIS ABOVE ALL,

"TO THINE OWN SELF
BE TRUE"?

ALL RIGHT,
YOU WANNA PLAY SHAKESPEARE?

DINNER'S READY.

HOW 'BOUT KING LEAR?

ACT ONE, SCENE FOUR.

"HOW SHARPER THAN
A SERPENT'S TOOTH

"IS AN UNGRATEFUL CHILD."

(Fran)
WILL YOU TWO STOP IT!

SIT DOWN.

JEFF, LOOK, I WOULDN'T HAVE
MINDED SO MUCH

IF YOU HAD MADE YOUR CASE
ON FACTS.

I MEAN, REALLY,
IF IT BUGGED YOU THAT MUCH,

YOU SHOULD HAVE
TALKED TO ME.

OKAY, HOW 'BOUT
TWENTY MINUTES NEXT THURSDAY

BETWEEN MICROCIRCUITS?

ANYHOW, YOU HAVE A WAY
OF BENDING EVERYTHING

TO YOUR RADIOACTIVE LOGIC.

MAYBE I'M MORE INTERESTED
IN TRUTH!

TRUTH?

WARREN, PLEASE, CAN'T IT WAIT
'TIL AFTER DINNER?

APPARENTLY IT CAN'T.

JEFF!

[door slams]

JEFF?

HEY, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO KNOCK
BEFORE COMING IN HERE!

I'M NOT GONNA KNOCK
IN MY OWN HOUSE.

YES, SIR.

AH, WHAT ARE YOU-,

COME ON, JEFF,
YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT,

I'M YOUR FATHER.

NEXT REASON.

LOOK, I WAS JUST ONE
OF A HUNDRED FACES DOWN THERE.

COME ON, YOU THINK THEY
PICKED YOU OUT OF THE CROWD

BECAUSE OF YOUR GOOD LOOKS?

DON'T BE STUPID!

YOU WERE A SET-UP.

THEY KNEW WHO YOU WERE,

AND THEY KNEW WHO
YOUR FATHER WAS, TOO.

NO, YOU'VE BEEN HAD, PAL.

YOU JUST FELL INTO IT,
THAT'S ALL.

LOOK, AREN'T YOU BEING
A LITTLE BIT PARANOID?

I'M SIMPLY TRYING TO
EXPLAIN TO YOU--

RATIONALLY--

THE CONSEQUENCES.

LOOK, I SAID WHAT I MEANT,
AND I MEANT WHAT I SAID.

DON'T I HAVE
THAT RIGHT?

NO, YOU DON'T!

APPARENTLY I DON'T!

NO, YOU DON'T HAVE
THAT RIGHT.

NOT TO CONDEMN MY WORK, NO.

FAEMAD PUT THIS HOUSE
OVER YOUR HEAD, YOU KNOW.

I MEAN JUST WHAT...
EVERYTHING YOU HAVE,

AND WHERE DO YOU THINK
IT ALL CAME FROM?

MONEY, MONEY, MONEY.

SURE, MONEY,
ALL RIGHT,

WHAT'S WRONG
WITH THAT, HUH?

JUST WHAT HAVE
YOU CONTRIBUTED
TO THE FAMILY?

I'M GETTING OUT OF
YOUR HOUSE!

I'M FINDING THAT
THE HEAVY FATHER TRIP

YOU'RE CONSTANTLY
RUNNING

IS REALLY THE ULTIMATE
BUMMER OF THE WORLD.

WOULD YOU MIND
TRANSLATING THAT
FOR ME, PLEASE?

WHAT WE'RE REALLY
TALKING ABOUT IS
YOUR IMAGE.

AND HOW I HAVE TO
LIVE UP TO IT.

MAYBE I'M CONCERNED
WITH HOW YOU THINK.

HOW 'BOUT WHAT I THINK?

WELL, I THINK THAT IMAGE
IS TARNISHED, DADDY ,

AND I REALLY DON'T THINK
I CAN LIVE WITH THAT.

COME ON, JEFF,
WILL YOU USE YOUR HEAD?

LOOK, IT'S MY HEAD!

I DON'T KNOW WHAT I AM,

BUT I'M NOT ONE
OF YOUR MACHINES!

YOU CAN'T PROGRAM ME
TO YOUR SPECIFICATIONS!

I'M ME!

AND THAT'S ALL
I WANT TO BE.

JEFF, WAIT A MINUTE!

HOW 'BOUT MY
CREDIT CARD, HUH?

ARE YOU BOTH
OUT OF YOUR MINDS?

ALL YOURS!

I WAS JUST TRYING

WHEN WE HAD
OUR FIRST RUN-IN,
YOU KNOW,

THE ONE THAT STARTED

YOU SEE HIM SO MUCH MORE
THAN I DO, HONEY,

DOES HE TALK TO YOU?

HE USED TO.

YEAH.

I WAS JUST TRYING TO GO BACK
TO THAT FIRST MISTAKE.

I KNOW WHAT MINE WAS.

I TRIED TO EXPLAIN
MY HUSBAND TO MY SON.

WAS THERE REALLY
THAT MUCH TO
EXPLAIN?

I'LL MAKE SOME COFFEE.

INFORMATION RETRIEVAL.

(man)
ARE YOU SAYING
THAT IN CYBERNETICS,

THE MACHINE SUBSTITUTES
FOR THE HUMAN BRAIN?

WHEN YOU PICK UP A TELEPHONE
AND DIAL,

THAT SUBSTITUTES FOR WHAT
WE USED TO CALL THE,

THE "HELLO GIRL",
THE OPERATOR.

BUT IN COMPUTERS,

THE INFORMATION RETRIEVAL
SUPPLEMENTS THE HUMAN BRAIN.

YOU'RE DOING WHAT
THE HUMAN BRAIN DOES

AND YOU'RE DOING IT FASTER
AND MORE ACCURATELY.

AND IT REMEMBERS BETTER!

MAN IMPROVING
ON HIS OWN CREATION.

CAN THE COMPUTER THINK?

IN THE PRESENT STATE OF
CYBERNETIC KNOWLEDGE,

A COMPUTER CAN ONLY DO
WHAT IT'S TOLD TO DO.

DOESN'T DECISION-MAKING
REQUIRE THINKING?

COMPUTERS ARE ABLE
TO MAKE DECISIONS,

BUT ONLY BASED ON
THE INFORMATION

GIVEN TO THE COMPUTER
BY THE COMPUTER PROGRAMMER.

I WISH WE HAD LONGER,
MR. GREEN...

LOOK, IF YOU ALL REALLY
WANT TO SEE HOW THIS PLUGS IN,

WHY DON'T WE SET UP
A TEN DOLLAR TOUR

OF THE INSTALLATION?

DO WE GET CREDIT?

[laughter]

[chatter]

HEY, LOOK,
DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT,

HE'S, HE'S AROUND.

OKAY, SEE YA.

HEY, JEFF.

MISSED YOU
THIS MORNING.

YEAH, I BLEW IT.

I'M SORRY, DAVE,
UH, DID I MISS MUCH?

[laughter]

OKAY, HEY, LISTEN,
UH, IT'S NICE POETRY.

DAYS, YEARS, WAYS, TEARS,

BUT RHYME DOESN'T
GET IT FOR ME.

BUT WHAT ABOUT
THE MEANING?

UH, WELL,
SOMETHING'S CHASING HIM.

UH, THE SOMETHING-SOMETHING,
UH, OF HIS MIND, UH...

PARANOIA!

[students agree]

THE "HOUND OF HEAVEN"
IS GOD.

LOOK, A POEM SHOULD BE ,
NOT MEAN .

BUT YOU HAVE TO BRING
SOMETHING TO A POEM.

IF ALL YOU'RE DOING
IS LOOKING AT THE WORDS...

[interrupts]
HEY! HOLD ON A SEC!

I HEAR YOU SAYING
I CAN'T APPRECIATE THIS THING

BECAUSE I'M NOT INTO GOD.

WELL, I'M NOT A MURDERER

AND I READ
"CRIME AND PUNISHMENT."

[chuckling]

ALL RIGHT,
I THINK IT'S FAIR

THAT WE EACH
INTERPRET POETRY

FROM OUR OWN
FRAME OF REFERENCE.

MICHELLE...

YOU BELIEVE
THE "HOUND OF HEAVEN" IS GOD.

CAN YOU SUPPORT THAT
FROM THE WORK ITSELF?

"ALAS, THOU KNOWEST NOT

"HOW LITTLE WORTHY
OF ANY LOVE THOU ART."

"WHOM WILT THOU FIND
TO LOVE IGNOBLE THEE...

"SAVE ME, SAVE ONLY ME."

WE'RE UNWORTHY
OF GOD'S LOVE,

AND YET HE LOVES US.

YOU LOSE ME
ON THE "THEES" AND "THOUS."

[laughter]

WHO'LL FINISH IT FOR US?

JEFF?

I DIDN'T GET THAT FAR.

MICHELLE?

WILL YOU END IT FOR US,
PLEASE?

"AH FONDEST, BLINDEST,
WEAKEST

"I AM HE WHOM
THOU SEEKEST.

"THOU DRAVEST LOVE FROM THEE
WHO DRAVEST ME."

YOU GOT A DATE!

IT'S TIME TO GO.

ALL RIGHT.

HEY, JONO,
WHERE YOU GOING?

I GOT TO SHOOT
UP TO THE LIBRARY.

HEY, DO ME A FAVOR, UH...

POST THAT ON THE BOARD,
WILL YOU?

YEAH.

HEY, GUITARS,
AMPS, SKIS?

YEAH, WELL,
I NEED THE BREAD.

OKAY, SEE YA LATER.

THANKS.

YOU BROUGHT HIM UP TO BE
A SELF-RELIANT,

INDEPENDENT HUMAN BEING.

AND THE MOMENT
HE CUTS LOOSE A LITTLE...

DAVID...

SO HE SHOT HIS MOUTH OFF.

IT HAS NOTHING
TO DO WITH THAT,

NOR THE FACT THAT
HE WAS ARRESTED

TWO TIMES FOR
SPEEDING.

THREE TIMES.

TOTALING THE OLDS.

OR EVEN MAKING A FOOL
OUT OF HIMSELF ON THE TUBE.

SO WHAT IS EATING YOU?

HOW DO YOU GET THROUGH
TO SOMEONE

WHO OPPOSES EVERYTHING
YOU STAND FOR...

AND POSSIBLY YOU?

WARREN...

IS THAT BENDING
THE TRUTH?

HEY, YOU'RE THE ONE
THAT'S ALWAYS
SELLING FAITH.

HOW ABOUT SOME IN ME?

YOU KNOW HOW UPTIGHT
MY LANDLADY GETS.

YEAH...
MAYBE SHE LIKES PIZZA.

[chuckling]

HEY, UH,
WHAT'S THE MATTER?

YOU REALLY DON'T WANT ME
TO COME HOME WITH YOU!

TROUBLE IS, I DO.

♪

AH, YES, AND HERE
WE HAVE MRS.
UNGERDUNGER,

OUR TYPICAL, BUT
BEAUTIFUL, AMERICAN
HOUSEWIFE, AND MOTHER,

WHO DOESN'T KNOW SHE'S
ON "CANDID COMMERCIAL!"

AND NOW FOR AN
HONEST OPINION OF
OUR PRODUCT...

WHY, LITTLE OL' ME
ON CANDID COMMERCIAL?

WHERE'S THE CAMERA?

RIGHT HERE,
LITTLE LADY.

I JUST WASHED THESE IN
GRUBBY'S NEW IMPROVED

SUPER-STRENGTH DETERGENT.

WHY, THESE AREN'T
TOO CLEAN!

AH, YES, WELL,
UH, THANK YOU,
MRS. UNGERDUNGER!

AS A MATTER OF FACT,

THEY WERE MUCH CLEANER
BEFORE I WASHED THEM!

AH, YES, UH,
THANK YOU, MRS...

I DO BELIEVE THIS IS
THE DIRTIEST SET OF LAUNDRY

I HAVE EVER SEEN!

MRS. UNGERDUNGER!

LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE SLEPT IN
A TRUCK ALL NIGHT LONG!

[laughing]

YOU KNOW, WE COULD
REALLY MAKE IT HERE,

JUST THE TWO OF US.

I ALMOST FORGOT
THE HISTORY NOTES.

YEAH, THAT'S COOL.

WE'VE GOT THAT SEMINAR THING
IN THE MORNING

AT YOUR DAD'S PLACE...

WILL YOU PICK ME UP?

DON'T COUNT ON IT.

WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED
TO MEAN?

[miscellaneous chatter
over police radio]

HEY, WARREN,
WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?

JUST GIVE ME THE TICKET,
WILL YOU, ANGIE?

YEAH, BUT THIS IS
A BUILT-UP ZONE.

NOW YOU HAD TO BE GOING
AT LEAST SIXTY...

SKIP THE LECTURE,
PLEASE.

[sighs]
OKAY, LET'S HAVE IT.

SHARON, I'M GOING TO BE
ABOUT FIVE MINUTES LATE.

YEAH.

WELL, WE SURE MISS YOU
AT THE GOLF COURSE.

BOY, YOU COULD
HIT THAT BALL A TON.

LISTEN, ANGIE, I WONDER
IF YOU COULD DO ME A FAVOR,

I, UH...JEFF AND I HAD A KIND OF
A, A PROBLEM LAST NIGHT

AND HE'S LEFT THE HOUSE.

I JUST WONDERED IF YOU COULD
KINDA KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR HIM,

YOU KNOW, UM,
NOTHING OFFICIAL.

LISTEN,
I GOT THREE OF MY OWN.

WHERE DO YOU THINK
I GOT THE GRAY HAIR?

MORNING, JEFF.

YEAH, I'M HERE FOR
DAVE GREEN'S CLASS.

THEY'RE ON THEIR WAY DOWN
TO MASTER CONTROL.

OKAY.

HEY, DON'T FORGET,
YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO WEAR THAT.

YEAH, RIGHT.

[tires screech]

COME ON IN.

EVERYONE FILL IN
AROUND THE WINDOW HERE.

ALL RIGHT NOW,

YOU REALIZE THAT EVERYTHING
YOU HAVE SEEN

IS RUN FROM RIGHT HERE
IN MASTER CONTROL.

THAT INCLUDES THE REACTOR,÷

DESALINIZATION INTAKE,
FRESH WATER OUTPUT,

UH, TEMPERATURE MAINTENANCE,
STEAM CONVERSION,

UH, TURBINE SPEED,
POWER START AND STOP.

WE STARTED WITH A MODEL...

[door slams]

LEMME SIT DOWN IN HERE
A MINUTE, CURT, HUH?

SURE.

'SCUSE ME.

SECURITY'S PRETTY TIGHT, HUH?

WELL, IN THE EVENT
OF AN EMERGENCY,

SECURITY CAN ELECTRONICALLY...
COME ON IN...

SECURITY CAN ELECTRONICALLY
SEAL OFF THIS ENTIRE PLANT.

THEN WE NEED ONE OF THESE

AUTHORIZED KEY CARDS TO RELEASE
THE LOCKING MECHANISM.

WE USE THEM AT ALL TIMES
HERE IN MASTER CONTROL.

OKAY, EVERYBODY,
COME ON IN.

IT MAY BE A LITTLE TIGHT,
BUT WE'LL MANAGE.

EXCUSE ME.

NOW, OUR RESEARCH AND
DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM

HAS PUT US AHEAD OF MOST
OTHER COUNTRIES

IN THE PROGRAMMING AND CONTROL
OF ATOMIC ENERGY.

AND ACTUALLY THE BIGGEST LOADS
IN THE HISTORY

OF ATOMIC REACTIVE POWER ARE
STORED RIGHT HERE.

PROGRAMMED FOR ALL
CONCEIVABLE COMBINATIONS

OF DEMAND AND
CIRCUMSTANCE.

X-MILLION INFORMATION BITS.

IT ALL BOILS DOWN
TO ONE REEL OF TAPE

CONTROLLING THE WHOLE THING

AND FIGURING OUT
THE CITY PAYROLL

AT THE SAME TIME.

IN FACT, EVERY CONCEIVABLE
MECHANICAL AND

ELECTRICAL FUNCTION
IS HANDLED FROM THIS ROOM.

THE DATA THAT HAS BEEN
DESIGNED INTO THESE MACHINES

ENABLE US TO CONTROL
POWER PLANTS,

AUTOMATICALLY CUTTING IN
APPROPRIATE SUBSTATIONS

AND CUTTING OUT OTHERS,

FEEDING POWER WHERE
IT'S NEEDED.

I'M SORRY, PAL.

NOW, THE NUMBER OF

MAN HOURS THAT HAVE BEEN
INVESTING IN THIS PROJECT ARE

COMPARABLE TO
ALL THE TIME DEVOTED

TO OUR SPACE PROGRAM.

SO WHAT HAPPENS IF SOMEBODY
PUSHES THE WRONG BUTTON?

IT SCREWS UP THE TAPE.

DOOM-DOOM-DOOM.

♪

[engine shuts off]

JONO...

OH, HI, MRS. COLE.

HOW ARE YOU?

JUST FINE,
HAVE YOU SEEN JEFF?

UH, NO, NOT FOR
A COUPLE OF DAYS, NO.

(Fran)
MICHELLE...

HE'S ALWAYS LIKE THAT,
LET ME TELL YOU.

MICHELLE? MICHELLE?

COULD I SEE YOU
FOR A MOMENT?

SEE YOU LATER!

BYE-BYE, MICHELLE.

I'M OPEN TO
JUST ABOUT ANYTHING.

I MEAN, YOU'RE SO
MUCH CLOSER TO HIM
THAN WE ARE.

FOR A TIME THERE,

I THOUGHT YOU WERE
GOING TO GET ENGAGED,

IF THAT ISN'T TOO
OLD-FASHIONED.

THEN WHEN YOU STOPPED
SEEING EACH OTHER SO MUCH,

JEFF SAID THE COMPETITION
WAS TOO TOUGH.

I GUESS HE MEANT JESUS.

YOU KNOW, IT'S REALLY
STRANGE BECAUSE

I HAVE SO MUCH MORE LOVE
TO GIVE HIM NOW.

AND HE'S MILES AWAY

AND CAN'T SEE IT.

DOES HE TALK TO YOU ABOUT,
US...

ABOUT HIS FAMILY?

SOMETIMES.

JEFF TOOK MOST OF THOSE.

IS HE INTERESTED IN
RELIGION?

OH, THAT WAS A CONCERT.

HE PLAYS SOMETIMES.

SUNDAY AFTERNOONS
WE USUALLY HAVE A THING
GOING AT THE PARK.

IT'S A LONG WALK,
THEY'LL KEEP YOU BUSY.

OH, IT'S NOT OUR "THING",
REALLY, THANK YOU.

WELL, IT'S NOT EXACTLY
A "THING", YOU KNOW.

IT COULD BE
YOUR WHOLE LIFE.

LOOK, IF THAT WORKS
FOR YOU, FINE,

BUT I JUST DON'T
GO ALONG WITH IT.

'SCUSE ME.

WOULD YOU MIND TELLING ME
WHAT YOU DO BELIEVE IN?

IN MY BOOK,

I JUST DON'T
BELIEVE IN MIRACLES.

I BELIEVE IN WHAT WORKS.

WOULD YOU BELIEVE IN
HOW CHRIST WORKED FOR ME?

SEE, I HAD THREE FELONY RAPS
FOR POSSESSION.

I WAS IN AND OUT OF EVERY KIND
OF DO-IT-YOURSELF THING

TO KICK THE HABIT.

AT ONE POINT,

I WAS SO FAR DOWN,
I FELT LIKE DYING.

AND THEN SOMEBODY TOUCHED ME

AND TOLD ME I COULD CHANGE
MY WHOLE LIFE RIGHT AROUND

IF I JUST LET JESUS HELP ME.

JESUS IS REAL, BROTHER,
PRAISE GOD!

GOOD, THANK YOU.

THIS MUST BE
THE PLACE.

WE'RE SINGING ABOUT LOVE.

BUT WHAT IS THIS LOVE,

THIS LOVE WE SING ABOUT?

LOVE IS A PRETTY GENERAL
TERM TODAY.

IT, IT COULD MEAN ANYTHING
FROM SOMETHING SOMEONE

MIGHT SAY TO SOMEONE
WHEN THEY WANTED

TO GO TO BED WITH THEM, TO A,

AN ECSTATIC, SPIRITUAL
FEELING OF FULFILLMENT,

DEEP INSIDE.

I DON'T THINK
HE'S HERE, FRAN.

BUT REAL LOVE,
AS TAUGHT BY THE BIBLE,

IS GIVING.

THE BIBLE SAYS IN LUKE 10
WHEN A LEGAL EXPERT ASKED JESUS

ABOUT GOD'S COMMAND
TO LOVE THY NEIGHBOR,

JESUS REPLIED
WITH THIS STORY.

IT SEEMS THERE WAS THIS MAN
TRAVELING FROM JERICHO

TO JERUSALEM,

THAT COULD HAVE BEEN FROM
LOS ANGELES TO SAN FRANCISCO

FOR THAT MATTER,

AND HE FELL AMONG SOME THIEVES
AND THEY BEAT HIM UP,

TOOK HIS MONEY,
TOOK HIS CLOTHES,

AND PUSHED HIM OFF
TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD

AND JUST GENERALLY
RIPPED HIM OFF.

THIS PRIEST CAME ALONG.

HE WAS A VERY HOLY
INDIVIDUAL.

HE LOOKED AT THE MAN
LAYING AT THE SIDE

OF THE ROAD
AND DECIDED THAT

HE DIDN'T WANT
TO GET INVOLVED,

SO HE PASSED HIM BY.

THEN AN ASSISTANT
OR SOMEBODY FROM

THE TEMPLE CAME ALONG

AND HE LOOKED AT THE GUY
LAYING THERE

AND RUSHED RIGHT BY

BECAUSE HE DIDN'T HAVE THE TIME
TO BE INVOLVED.

THAT SEEMS TO ME TO BE
WHERE MOST OF US ARE.

THAT SEEMS TO BE

THE HUMAN CONDITION.

WE, WE NEED THIS HELP,

AND WE REACH OUT
FOR THIS HELP,

BUT NOBODY HEARS US BECAUSE
EVERYBODY'S JUST TOO BUSY.

BUT THAT'S NOT
THE END OF THE STORY.

ANOTHER MAN CAME DOWN
THE ROAD.

HE WAS WHAT THE BIBLE CALLED
A "DESPISED SAMARITAN."

WE WOULD PROBABLY CALL HIM

THE LAST MAN ON THE FACE
OF THE EARTH TO HELP ANYBODY,

BECAUSE NOBODY EVER
HELPED HIM.

THE SAMARITANS HAD THEIR OWN
LITTLE GHETTO, YOU KNOW.

HE KNEW ALL ABOUT PAIN,

SO HE WALKED OVER TO THE MAN
AT THE SIDE OF THE ROAD,

AND BANDAGED HIM UP,
AND TOOK CARE OF HIM.

MAYBE YOU'VE BEp WAYLAID
BY THE SIDE OF LIFE'S HIGHWAY

OR MAYBE YOU KNOW
SOMEONE WHO HAS.

JESUS LOVES YOU,
YOU KNOW.

HE WANTS TO HELP YOU.

AND HE PROVED HIS LOVE FOR YOU
BY DYING ON THE CROSS,

FOR YOU.

OPEN UP AND ACCEPT THAT LOVE
HE HAS TO OFFER.

HI!

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN
ALL AFTERNOON?

I'VE BEEN HOME SINCE
TWO O'CLOCK!

WELL, I WENT TO A MEETING
WITH DAVE...

SOME OF MICHELLE'S
FRIENDS WERE HAVING.

I THOUGHT JEFF MIGHT BE THERE,
BUT HE WASN'T.

THEN WE JUST SAT AND TALKED
AND THE TIME JUST GOT AWAY.

FOUR HOURS?

WELL, IT'S NOT EXACTLY NORMAL

FOR YOU TO BE HOME
ON SUNDAY AFTERNOONS.

MAYBE YOU'D BETTER START
MIMEOGRAPHING YOUR SCHEDULE!

HOW OFTEN DO YOU HAVE
THESE LITTLE CHATS?

DAVE'S A GOOD LISTENER!

WELL, THE NEXT TIME
SHE WANTS TO

CRY ON YOUR SHOULDER,

WHY DON'T YOU TRY
TAKING HER TO LUNCH?

NOW WAIT A MINUTE...

...IF HE GAIN THE WHOLE WORLD

AND LOSE HIS OWN SOUL.

SIMON AND GARFUNKEL
WROTE THIS:

"IMPALED UPON MY WALL,
MY EYES DIMLY SEE,

"THE PATTERN OF MY LIFE
AND THE PUZZLE THAT IS ME.

"FROM THE MOMENT OF MY BIRTH
TO THE INSTANT OF MY DEATH,

"THERE ARE PATTERNS
I MUST FOLLOW

"JUST AS I MUST
BREATHE EACH BREATH.

"LIKE A RAT IN A MAZE,
THE PATH BEFORE ME LIES,

"AND THE PATTERN NEVER ALTERS,
UNTIL THE RAT DIES."

IS THAT THE WAY
YOUR LIFE SEEMS?

JUST A CIRCLE?

JUST A MAZE?

NO PURPOSE AND NO MEANING,
LIFE MAKES NO SENSE?

DID YOU KNOW THAT YOU CAN
REALLY LIVE ANY WAY

THAT YOU WANT TO LIVE

AND THERE'S NOTHING
THAT GOD CAN DO ABOUT IT?

YOU'RE NOT A PUPPET
ON A STRING.

YOU'RE NOT A MECHANICAL TOY
THAT GOD WINDS UP

AND TURNS YOU LOOSE

AND YOU DO WHAT YOU'RE
SUPPOSED TO DO.

YOU'RE MADE IN
THE IMAGE OF GOD.

YOU'RE MADE IN
THE MORAL IMAGE OF GOD.

YOU CAN CHOOSE!

YOU CAN CHOOSE THE KIND OF LIFE
YOU'RE GOING TO LEAD.

IF YOU WANT TO LEAD A LIFE
TOTALLY AWAY FROM GOD,

PLEASING YOUR OWN FLESH,
YOUR OWN DESIRES,

UNDER THE CONTROL
OF YOUR OWN WILL

WITHOUT ANY RESTRAINTS,

WITHOUT ANY LORDSHIP
OF JESUS CHRIST,

GO AHEAD AND DO IT!

NO, YOU CANNOT ESCAPE JESUS.

YOU CAN TRY,
BUT YOU CAN'T DO IT.

IF JESUS CLAIMED TO BE GOD
KNOWING THAT HE WAS NOT,

THEN, OF COURSE,
HE'S A LIAR.

IF JESUS THOUGHT HE WAS GOD
AND DIDN'T KNOW THE DIFFERENCE,

HE WAS A MANIAC.

BUT IF JESUS CHRIST
IS WHO HE CLAIMS TO BE--

GOD IN THE FLESH--

THEN NOTHING ELSE COUNTS
EXCEPT TO KNOW HIM.

WITH ALL OF OUR SCIENTIFIC
AND TECHNOLOGICAL ACHIEVEMENT,

WITH ALL OF
OUR INTELLECTUALISM,

WE CANNOT ESCAPE JESUS.

EVERYBODY HAS TO DECIDE
ABOUT JESUS!

WHO IS HE?

WHAT WAS HE?

WHAT DEMANDS DOES HE HAVE
ON MY LIFE TODAY?

GOD SAID,
"I'LL BECOME A MAN!"

AND YOUNG PEOPLE,

I WANT TO TELL YOU,
THAT'S WHO JESUS CHRIST IS.

[applause]

GOD BECAME A MAN!

AND GOD, IN THE FORM
OF JESUS CHRIST,

BORN OF A VIRGIN,
WALKED AMONG US,

AND HE SHOWED US
WHAT GOD IS LIKE,

AND IF I WANT TO KNOW
WHAT GOD IS LIKE,

I TAKE A LONG LOOK
AT JESUS.

I WATCH HIM AS HE MAKES
THE BLIND MAN TO SEE

AND THE DUMB MAN TO TALK

AND THE DEAD MAN TO RISE.

BUT THAT WASN'T WHY HE CAME.

HE DIDN'T COME JUST TO
LIVE AMONG US;

HE DIDN'T COME JUST TO
TEACH US A NEW WAY OF LIFE.

JESUS CHRIST CAME
FOR ANOTHER PURPOSE--

HE CAME TO DIE ON THE CROSS.

YOU SEE, THE CROSS OF CHRIST
WHERE HE DIED FOR OUR SINS,

THAT WAS A JUDGMENT.

JESUS SAID,
"TO THIS END WAS I BORN."

HE WAS NOT ACCIDENTALLY
PUT TO DEATH.

AND HE SAID, "MY GOD!
WHY HAST THOU FORSAKEN ME?"

AT THAT MOMENT,
IN SOME MYSTERIOUS WAY,

GOD WAS JUDGING HIS SON
INSTEAD OF US.

HE DIDN'T JUST GIVE HIM
TO DIE.

HE GAVE HIM TO SIN!

HE BECAME SIN FOR US!

THE BIBLE SAYS,
"ALL HAVE SINNED."

WHAT DOES "SIN MEAN?

SIN MEANS THAT YOU'VE BROKEN
THE LAW OF GOD.

SIN MEANS THAT YOU'VE
COME SHORT OF GOD'S

[Billy Graham on television)
HOLY REQUIREMENTS
FOR ETERNAL LIFE.

ALL OF US ARE SINNERS.

ALL OF US HAVE
MISSED THE MARK.

(Warren)
HONEY, I WAS JUST GOING
THROUGH MY BAG.

I CAN'T FIND MY NINE IRON
OR MY PUTTER.

I THINK THEY MIGHT BE
IN JEFF'S ROOM.

HE USED THEM LAST SUMMER.

[Billy Graham from television]
THAT'S WHY HE CAME
AND DIED ON THE CROSS,

TO CONQUER SIN,

TO TAKE AWAY THIS COSMIC
LONELINESS THAT WE ALL FEEL.

YOU KNOW, THE GOD OF THE BIBLE
IS NOT SOME COLD,

IMPERSONAL FORMULA
OR SOME POWER...

YOU WANT SOME COFFEE?

YEAH, UH-HMM.

AND JESUS SAID,
"I'VE COME TO BRING LIFE,

"AND LIFE ABUNDANTLY!"

JESUS SAID YOU CANNOT SERVE
GOD AND MAMMON.

HE SAID, "A MAN'S LIFE
CONSISTETH NOT IN THE ABUNDANCE

"OF THE THINGS
THAT HE POSSESSES."

RICHES MAKE PEOPLE SOLITARY,
LONELY AND OFTEN AFRAID.

IF YOU MAKE MONEY YOUR GOD,
IT LEAVES YOU EMPTY.

GEORGE BERNARD SHAW SAID,

"THERE ARE TWO TRAGEDIES
IN LIFE.

"ONE IS NOT TO GET
YOUR HEART'S DESIRE.

"AND THE OTHER IS TO GET IT."

YOU THINK IF YOU HAD
A LOT OF MONEY YOU'D BE HAPPY.

SOME OF YOU'VE ALREADY
GOT A LOT,

AND YOU'RE NOT HAPPY.

TWO TRAGEDIES...

YOU DIDN'T GET IT,
AND YOU DID GET IT.

YOU SEE, WITHOUT GOD,
LIFE LOSES ITS ZEST,

AND ITS PURPOSE
AND ITS MEANING.

YOU WERE MADE FOR GOD,

AND WITHOUT GOD,

YOU CAN NEVER FIND
TOTAL FULFILLMENT...

OH, THANKS.

...AND TOTAL SATISFACTION.

HOW MANY PEOPLE
ARE WATCHING ME

THAT ARE HAVING PROBLEMS
IN YOUR HOME?

HE CAN GIVE YOU
A NEW HOME.

TURN IT OVER TO HIM,

TAKE ALL THE SELFISHNESS OUT
AND PUT CHRIST FIRST,

AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

WHAT IS THE CURE?

THERE IS A CHRISTIAN CURE.

THE CURE IS CHRIST,
TO GO TO OUR KNEES.

IF YOU WAIT UNTIL YOU CAN
UNDERSTAND IT ALL,

OR ACCEPT IT ALL
SCIENTIFICALLY,

YOU'LL NEVER COME!

JESUS SAID, "EXCEPT YOU BECOME
AS A LITTLE CHILD

"AND BE CONVERTED,

"YOU CANNOT ENTER
THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN."

WHAT DOES CONVERTED MEAN?

CONVERTED JUST MEANS CHANGE.

YOU'RE GOING IN ONE DIRECTION
IN YOUR LIFE,

AND YOU CHANGE AND
START A NEW DIRECTION

AND YOUR NEW DIRECTION
IS TOWARD GOD,

WITH CHRIST IN YOUR HEART,
THAT'S CONVERSION.

CONVERSION IS THE WORK OF GOD.

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS BE
WILLING AND HE'LL DO IT.

I'M GOING TO ASK YOU TO SUBMIT
AND SURRENDER YOUR LIFE

AND YOUR HEART TO HIM
AND START LIFE ALL OVER AGAIN.

WITH HIS LOVE
AND HIS POWER TO HELP YOU.

WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO DO?

YOU HAVE TO BE WILLING
TO GIVE UP YOUR SIN

AND CONFESS THAT YOU'VE FAILED
AND SINNED AGAINST GOD.

I'M GOING TO ASK YOU BY FAITH
TO COME TO HIS CROSS

WHERE HE SHED HIS BLOOD
FOR YOU,

AND LET HIM WASH YOU CLEAN
OF YOUR PAST

AND CHANGE YOUR LIFE
AND MAKE YOU A NEW PERSON.

I'M ASKING YOU TO GET UP
OUT OF YOUR SEAT

AND COME AND STAND RIGHT HERE
IN FRONT OF THIS PLATFORM,

AND SAY, "I WANT CHRIST.

"I CHOOSE CHRIST AS MY LORD

"AND MY MASTER
AND MY SAVIOR."

THERE'S A YOUNG MAN,
THERE'S A YOUNG WOMAN,

THERE'S A FATHER,
THERE'S A MOTHER HERE TONIGHT

THAT CHRIST IS SPEAKING TO.

AND YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO
FACE DEATH

AND YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO
FACE THE JUDGMENT,

AND YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO
FACE LIFE.

AND YOU CAN'T FACE ANY OF THEM
REALLY, WITHOUT CHRIST.

♪ KUM BA YA ♪

♪ O LORD, KUM BA YA ♪

I'D ALWAYS BEEN STRONG
AND INDEPENDENT

UNTIL MY FAMILY
STARTED BREAKING UP

FOR THE SECOND TIME.

AND I REALIZED HOW WEAK
I REALLY WAS,

HOW I NEEDED SOMEBODY
WHO'S STRONG

AND WHOSE LOVE WAS CONSTANT.

I HAD SOME FRIENDS
WHO TOLD ME ABOUT JESUS CHRIST,

AND I REALLY KNEW
THAT I NEEDED HIM,

AND THAT HE REALLY WANTED ME.

I JUST COULDN'T HELP BUT
RESPOND TO HIS UNENDING LOVE.

I FELT LIKE I WAS LOST,
YOU KNOW, LIKE, 25 YEARS.

LIKE I USED HEROIN
FOR SEVEN YEARS,

LIKE I'VE BEEN
IN THE PENITENTIARY.

LIKE I FELT LIKE
I NEVER BELONGED ALL MY LIFE.

LIKE I FELT LIKE SOMETHING
WAS ALWAYS MISSING INSIDE OF ME.

AND NOW LIKE,
I FEEL WHOLE, I FEEL COMPLETE.

AND IT'S THROUGH JESUS CHRIST.

IN COMING OUT OF
THE DRUG CULTURE,

I FOUND ONE OF THE BIGGEST
HANG UPS FOR ME

WAS THAT I WAS NEVER WILLING
TO ADMIT THAT I WAS WRONG,

OR THAT I COULD POSSIBLY BE
SINFUL OR SOMETHING.

AND I FOUND THAT
WHEN I ACCEPTED CHRIST,

AT THE AGE OF 18,

ALL I HAD TO DO
WAS JUST BE MYSELF.

AND THAT'S THE KIND
OF RELATIONSHIP I FOUND

THAT GOD WANTED WITH ME.

YOU KNOW, I USED TO REALLY
RESENT CHRISTIANS

WITH THEIR SMILEY FACES
AND THEIR WHITE BIBLES.

AND THEY'D COME UP TO ME,

AND THEY'D TELL ME
WHAT A WONDERFUL,

PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP
THEY HAD WITH JESUS CHRIST.

UNTIL ONE DAY, I WAS IN A, UH,
A VOLKSWAGEN REPAIR SHOP.

AND, UH, AND THIS GUY
CAME UP TO ME

AND SAT DOWN NEXT TO ME
WITH A BIBLE.

AND SO I THOUGHT
AS A GAME

I'D ASK HIM SOME OF
THE USUAL QUESTIONS

ABOUT GOD AND JESUS CHRIST
AND THINGS,

AND RIGHT THERE,
HE EXPLAINED TO ME

WHY I NEEDED JESUS CHRIST
AS MY PERSONAL SAVIOR.

AND, YOU KNOW, DRIVING HOME
RIGHT AFTER THAT,

IN MY, IN MY REPAIRED
VOLKSWAGEN,

I COULD TELL THAT I WAS,
I WAS A NEW PERSON,

AND JESUS WAS REALLY
IN MY LIFE.

I REMEMBER GOING TO CHURCH
EVERY SUNDAY OF MY LIFE,

AND I'D COME AWAY
FROM MY DEAL ON SUNDAY

AND THINK I'D DONE
MY BIT FOR THE WEEK.

BUT I WAS MISSING
THE WHOLE POINT

OF WHAT CHURCH IS ABOUT.

BUT THEN ONE DAY,
A GUY ON A FOOTBALL FIELD

REALLY TOLD ME THAT
CHRISTIANITY IS A PERSONAL

RELATIONSHIP WITH CHRIST,

AND THAT GOD, MY GOD,
WANTED TO BE A 7-DAY-A-WEEK GOD,

NOT JUST A SUNDAY GOD.

AND I FOUND WHEN I INVITED
JESUS INTO MY LIFE

THAT I HAD A GOD THAT WAS
WITH ME ALL THE TIME.

THERE WAS A GIRL IN MY CLASS
WHO, UH,

STARTED TALKING TO ME
ABOUT CHRIST,

AND I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT
BECAUSE SHE REALLY SEEMED

TO BE, UH, A SEMI-, UH,
INTELLECTUAL PERSON,

AND I COULDN'T BRING
THE TWO TOGETHER.

AND ONE BY ONE,

ALL MY INTELLECTUAL ARGUMENTS
STARTED BREAKING DOWN,

AND UH, CHRIST IS IN MY LIFE.

AND YOU KNOW, UH,
IT'S NOT HARD TO BE ALONE NOW.

IT'S NOT HARD TO,
BE ALONE AT NIGHT.

BECAUSE I KNOW THAT GOD
IS REALLY THERE.

AFTER AWHILE, I JUST, UM,
STOPPED RUNNING, I GUESS.

WELL, I GUESS
THE CHASE IS OVER.

I'VE BEEN DOING
A LOT OF SEARCHING.

BUT I'VE DECIDED
TO TRUST JESUS.

I, I NEED...
FOR HIM TO GIVE ME...

WELL, FOR ONE THING, LOVE.

I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT'S
GOING TO HAPPEN FROM HERE ON,

BUT I DO KNOW
THAT I NEED JESUS.

AND I'M FIGURING HE,
HE CAN SHOW ME THE WAY.

[Billy Graham voiceover]

HAVE YOU SENSED
THE SPIRIT OF GOD,

THE GREAT "HOUND OF HEAVEN"
TUGGING AT YOUR HEART?

THE BIBLE SAYS
WE CAN NEVER FIND GOD

THROUGH OUR OWN KNOWLEDGE,

THAT WE HAVE TO DISCOVER HIM
LIKE A CHILD,

REACHING OUT IN SIMPLE TRUST
TO HIS SON JESUS CHRIST.

ONLY THEN,
AFTER THAT FIRST STEP OF FAITH,

WILL HE REVEAL HIMSELF.

AND IN YOUR HEART,
YOU WILL KNOW.

WHAT'S KEEPING YOU FROM
DOING THAT RIGHT NOW?

YOUR PRIDE?

YOUR UNCERTAINTY?

PERHAPS CHRISTIANS
THAT HAVE FAILED YOU.

YOUR OWN DREAMS,
YOUR OWN BANK ACCOUNT,

YOUR OWN AMBITIONS.

IF JESUS IS
WHO HE CLAIMED TO BE,

THERE'S NOTHING MORE IMPORTANT
IN THE WORLD

THAN GETTING TO KNOW HIM.

IT'S MY PRAYER
THAT THIS MOMENT

YOU WILL COME TO CHRIST.

GOD BLESS YOU.
