:58:00
- Is that you, sir?
- Yes.
:58:03
- You were young then.
- Things happen.
:58:08
Yes, and...
:58:10
...you carried
much less of a burden.
:58:13
- Burden?
- I meant you were slimmer.
:58:17
Yes, I was slimmer, I had more hair,
and fewer wrinkles.
:58:22
My father, God rest his soul,
used to say...
:58:27
..."Youth is like the sun before sundown.
It's gone in a wink.
:58:32
But old age is like
the longest night of the year."
:58:36
- He sure was right.
- Yes, sir.
:58:38
How is this one?
:58:40
You had a mustache?
:58:44
And a beard and lots of hair.
:58:47
When you're young,
you take care of yourself.
:58:51
You do, sir.
:58:53
- I don't think any of these will do.
- What for?
:58:57
For my obituary notices.
:58:59
I didn't want them to print
an ugly picture of me.
:59:02
God forbid, sir, but what difference
does it make once one is dead?
:59:08
I know, I know.
:59:10
But it's better
if it is a nice picture.
:59:19
This city has become
like an ocean.
:59:21
If you don't make
a fixed appointment...
:59:24
...two people might live in it for
20 years and never see each other.
:59:29
These days,
we only see our friends...
:59:31
...in memorial services
and funerals.
:59:34
Right, the last time I saw you was
in Sohrab Shahid Saless' funeral.
:59:39
But how come you thought of me?
:59:44
Well, I am making a documentary
on funeral rites in Iran.
:59:53
So again, we are meeting
for a funeral.
:59:58
Almost?
:59:59
I just want you to talk about one of
your departed friends for the film.
