Our everyday lives are real and true,
but all the stories in the world,
1:09:08
all the music, came out of
someone's imagination.
1:09:11
So, if we tell the truth, and write
the lies,
1:09:16
then they aren't lies
anymore, they become stories.
1:09:18
Like some of the very nice
compositions you've written, Frances.
1:09:22
Like the one about
my father taking me
1:09:24
to see the cotton fields
down south?
1:09:25
We didn't really go.
1:09:27
l rather imagined you didn't.
1:09:29
But don't you think it would be
still better
1:09:32
if you would write about the things
you really know about
1:09:36
and then add to them with
your imagination.
1:09:39
Even stories shouldn't be
just, well, pipe dreams.
1:09:44
Pipe dreamers can be very lovable
people but they don't help anybody.
1:09:49
But they don't help anybody. Now,
think about it a little.
1:09:53
And have a Merry Christmas.
And enjoy your pie.
1:10:00
Yes, Miss McDonald.
Thank you, Miss McDonald.
1:10:11
For Goïs sakes. Where've you been?
You were supposed to meet me...
1:10:14

1:10:17
All right, but les eat the pie.
1:10:21
Come on, we gotta see about our
Christmas tree.
1:10:23

1:10:33
He ain't got much time
left to sell it.
1:10:34
Go on, beat it. You know l ain't
gonna throw 'em til midnight.
1:10:37
What do you want to do, block the
sidewalk?
1:10:39
Keep customers out?
1:10:40
Ah, you don't own the sidewalk!
1:10:43

1:10:46
