...all the way along that ridge Right out, it's like half an hour...
Over there? - All along there.
And then we went round to the next little beach
Excuse me--
I wonder could you tell me... Is this where they make the film "The Piano"?
No. That's the next little beach, Karikari.
- Thank you.
Oh, I forgot, I forgot! - What?- Check this out.
It's Ant's screen play.
Read this. Read that.
"Rebecca takes off her shirt, then her bra. She looks at the camera, proud, defiant.
"'When I was 14 my family moved to Hamilton because my father had a job as a foreman on a construction site
That's weird! - That's not weird, it's crap, that's what it is.
What if it's his only copy? - I don't care...
Er, excuse me? I want- I want a photo of my-
Oh, hello again. - Hi. I want a photo of myself, here.
I don't have time to go to the other beach.
I will just pretend.
Looking good!
Oh, how can people leave rubbish in this beautiful place?
It's terrible. - Mmm, yes awful.
Oh! It's a film script.
By Anthony...
... Bainbridge.
Bain...bridge - Bainbridge.
Interesting!
I have a friend who makes films. In Germany.- Ah?
Ah, it's funny?
Hey, what day is it?
No idea.
I think it's Wednesday. - Who cares?
I've got an appointment for Wednesday.
Oh shit.
Hey.
Do you want me to come along with you?
No, don't worry.
Going to Remuera?
Fuck!
Hey, here it is, here. Stop stop.
Hi, sorry I'm late, I'm here for my abortion.
What time is your appointment? - Two.
That's fine.
What name was it? - Elizabeth Freen.
Freen. -- F.R.E.E.N
Unusual name. - Not in my family.
Freen.
I'm sorry, we don't have any record of your appointment
What do you mean?
Ah.
Your appointment was for last Wednesday. - What?
We tried to ring but there was never any answer.
I don't...you are...
You've got to give me another appointment.
Look, it's not that simple. How many weeks are you?
I'm not gonna have a baby.
Look, I'm sorry but I think if you really wanted the termination...
...you'd have been here a week ago.
I think that sub-consciously you really want this baby.
What do you know about my sub-conscious?
I'm sorry, but there have to be exceptional circumstances for us to grant a termination after 17 weeks.
Yeah, well you said it was kind of infected
Yeah?
Yeah, I knew a guy whose nipple just fell off.
Hey, dickhead?
Hey. Dickhead.
Piss off.
How'd it go?
Fine.
Thank you. Thank you.
Um. I'd ah... It's a great honour to er..
...receive this award and...
..well, I'd just like to thank my mother, whose...
..whose support made this film possible.
This, this award, well it's, it's ah...
And I'd, well, I'd like to thank the Academy...
...or the...the New Zealand Film thing.
Thingy
For this prestigious award.
A great honour, and I'd like to thank my mother who...
...without her...
Hi there! - Hi Prue.
Ant, Mike.
Nice to meet you.
Great drying day. - Yeah
Guess what? - What?
Mike and I have decided to get married.
Who to?
How often does it happen that an author, or artist, or musician has to make it overseas...
...before they gain any recognition here in New Zealand?
Anthony Bainbridge struggled for years, writing scripts.
Now he's a force to be reckoned with, an international reputation in the making.
In Germany.
Anthony. Hi. - Hi.
Did you show your script to many people in New Zealand, before selling it to Germany?
No, I didn't show it to anyone.
Topless women. Surely a risky subject for a man to write given the current climate of political correctness?
Your film is intended as a critique of the increasing prudishness of modern society.
No?
How did you get the idea for the film?
Oh, I don't know, I guess I just like--
I just like women's...
...women's
...wom--
Would you like Chinese?
I hope that's sticky rice, I love sticky rice.
You've got a little bit of a- Spring onion?
Hi, good morning. Would you like dim sum and dumpling?
Oh. What do you think? - Spare pork? - No, no thanks.
I'll have sticky rice! - Sticky rice?
Hmm. Maybe on other tray.
If you like it, okay? - Thankyou.
Excuse me. You like anything else to eat? - Sticky rice!
Do you have any sticky rice? - Sticky rice? Maybe I ask another one...
Is it for you? Can you wait a few minutes? - Yes. OK, good, fine.
Oh, christ. - What?
Some-one I know.
Kerry? - Yeah, that arsehole.
What have you got against him? - I just hate tall people.
I booked it a week ago. Mulverhill. Kerry Mulverhill.
Oh, god, I'm so full.
I think I'm putting on weight. - Excellent.
In fact...
... I think I'm going to be putting on quite a lot of weight.
Excellent.
You know that morning when I went for my abortion.--Mmhmm.
Well, I didn't have it.
Ah-hah.
So are you getting back with the father? - No.
Liz.
I don't want to get involved. - Who's getting involved?
Well. I mean it's just that...
My girlfriend's coming back from Turkey in 3 weeks.
Your what? - My girlfriend.
You have a girlfriend?
I know I- I should have told you before but...
I didn't think it was that important.
Because what, we've only slept together for about ten, fifteen times?
It's not like we're having a "relationship", you know.
I'm sorry.
Sticky rice.
Neil. -How's it going?
Yeah, okay.
Not pregnant, or anything?
Who the fuck told you? - Prue.
She's got a big mouth. - I'd like to know who the father is.
Can't talk we about this some other time?
No, I'd like to talk about it now.
You want to know who I fuck? - No, I think you should-
See, I have a right to know who it is.
Look, Neil, it isn't the right time to be talking about...
Look, for god's sake, just...
Liz. - Eric.
Cheers.
What's the occasion? - You're fired.
Liz. Who's the father?
You are.
Happy now?
Christ.
I knew it.
Christ, this is serious, Liz, I mean... why didn't you talk to me?
Why didn't you have an abortion?
Why don't you wear the condom?
So you're having the baby?
Why? You don't want kids.
Yeah well...I've changed my mind. I've been feeling all maternal.
Jeez.
Look Neil.
You don't have to have anything to do with this, you know.
I don't want fucking part of it. It's an insane idea.
And you shouldn't be smoking.
Liz. Liz.
Look, I'm sorry for what I said. - Just leave me alone.
Now listen.
I know you've got a boy friend at the moment. But just in case it doesn't work out.
What?
We could get back together.
I could be the father, if you want.
You what?
You know mother, father, baby.
I still...we could get married. Whatever you want.
You don't love me, you said so yourself.
Yeah, well the feeling was mutual, as I recall.- Exactly
We could try.
Neil, it wouldn't work
Yeah. Yeah, you're right.
Is it kicking?
Go on, look at you.
How unfair, you've got a head start.
Hey, I'm carrying a child.
Are you enjoying it?
Ah, good to have big sister again, eh?
So, are you gonna come to my wedding?
Nah, can't afford 3 grand.
Got fired. - What? Again?
Please.
I'd really like you to be my best woman.
Come on Stewie, come on. Good fella, come on
Who's a great big wet bunny then, eh?
Oh, you little sweetheart, just a...
...couple more lengths, eh?
Mr Mulverhill? -Sorry?
Yes that's me. - I'm sorry to bother you.
I wanted to speak to you about your son.
Um. Which one? - Kerry.
I don't want to make any trouble for Kerry.
Or your family, or anything.
I know he doesn't love me.
It's just that I haven't--
Could you make that out to cash?
Three thousand dollars.
Now I don't really want to give you this. And do you know why?
It means I'm going to be a grandfather.
Me. Come on, come on. Come and sit here.
With me. Here we are.
You know I don't even know your name.
Rebecca. - Rebecca.
Oh Jesus.
Stew. Stewie.
You lazy little shit.
Thanks, Mum.
Do you want me to iron your shirt?
I want to fuck you. - That's nice, dear.
Ant's gonna be getting really nervous. - Yeah.
Prue. Prue - What?
You know, like, this marriage thing?
It's like, it's serious. It's not a joke.
Why?
It's just hard to tell sometimes.
You know?
I love you.
And I can't wait to be your...
....palagi
I'm gonna be late.
Hey. Can I come?
Geoff. Don't do that.
Thank you very much. Thank you.
Thank you very much, I hope you enjoy the film.
Thank you very much for coming, for...thank you very much.
Nice speech, Ant, good one.
You seen Ant?
Hi. - Hi.
What a load of crap.
I'm going to go and see where Ant is, OK?
Sure.
How's it going? - Good.
You? - Yeah, good.
Well, see you.
Hey, hi, you must be Buckwheat, and um Bertha, right? - That's right.
I'm Geoff, this is Whitman.
You look fucking gorgeous.
Hi, how are you going, nice to see you, it's great to be here.
What are you doing here.
Oh, hi. - Hi.
You okay? - Yeah.
Wasn't it great?
Oh. Yeah! Yeah.
I was so excited I had to go and have a vomit.
Ant.
Geoff! - What?
You OK?
I...
... don't think we should see each other anymore.
What do you mean? - I mean it's over.
How's that?
Liz! Liz! What did you think?
Really good, eh?
Yeah, Yeah, it was really good.
See you. See you.
Right. Let's go in. - Hey, no Ant, look...
You're really not looking your best, maybe you should...
But I wanna go and mingle.
Well, go and get a drink. Somewhere else.
Down here. - Why? - Well, why not? Come on.
I saw some reporters. They want to take my photo, won't they?
When I had my wife... I was in the room of pregnancy.
And she had a baby, it was very painful, but...
I remember very well when she phoned me...
This guy with you? Eh, ma'am?
Sort of.
I'm sorry. I was a dick.
Liz!
Eh, welcome! - Thank you.
Congratulations on the baby. - Thank you.
When are you due? - A couple of months.
Are you the father? - No, no. He is.
For you. To eat.
Vegetarian. No meat.
He says you have to eat meat to make big strong babies.
Shut up.
So what do you do?
Oh, I'm just de-husking the cocoanuts.
I'm a script writer.
Feature films, mostly.
Do women in Niue go around, you know, topless?
It's just that I'm thinking of writing a feature film script set on a pacific island.
Here you are, this is your room.
We can have 2 little rooms.
Mike and Prue can sleep here.
But...but they can't. - Why not?
Because they're not married yet.
Thank you.
This is gonna be fun. - Well don't blame me.
I'm not blaming you.
You know, this is like one of those old romantic comedies.
You know, the guy and the girl are forced to stay in the same hotel room and...
...well, eventually they just...
Yeah, Neil, but this time...
...they don't
Well you can sleep here, and I'll sleep in Ant's room or something.
Okay
No really, I insist.
What? What?
This is pretty ridiculous.
Why?
This is the only thing we've go in common.
Fuck! - Yeah!
Well. See ya.
Hi.
Good on yer, mate.
You're a champion
She's broken up with Geoff. Did you know?
No. - Thank God.
It's terrible when your best friend goes out with somebody you can't stand.
Hey. Come on. It's just a wedding.
You OK?
Guess I found it really moving.
Bullshit.
I'm just really scared. You know, scared of being alone.
You're not. You've got great friends. You have.
I'm just, I've never really been in love before, you know.
I don't know what to do. - About what?
I told them you were a virgin. - What?!
They might check the sheets in the morning. - For?
Jesus. Well, what happens if...
They stone the girl and call her a slut.
Mike?
I've had an idea for a future film script that I like to run through-
Ant.
What? - Your film
You know the premiere?
It was a disaster, man.
Everybody hated it. It sucked
You're funny. - It's the truth
No-one had a good word to say about it
Yeah right. How come everyone said they loved it?
Cos Prue told them to.
Crap.
She did. She didn't think you could handle it.
She said you were too psychologically unstable.
But that's bullshit, eh man? Isn't it?
Yeah. Yeah, right. Of course.
Ant!
Ant, what's wrong?
How're you feeling?
Well?
I think he just wants to be by himself.
But- who knows?
Come on. - How could you?
Look, this is our honeymoon.
Can't spend all your time worrying about him
...trivial! - This is not true!
I've been thinking. - What?
Look, you know how with most couples, the first few years are really good...
...and they have great sex and everything. - Yeah?
And then you know it gets boring and they and they just stay together out of convenience...
...or for the sake of the children. - Yeah?
Well...
we...we could skip that... good bit.
We could just go straight to the boring loveless sexless thing.
What a wonderful opportunity!
Maybe, maybe it is.
Are you serious? - Yeah.
Do you reckon you could ever fall in love with me again?
No.
Sorry.
What about you?
Nah.
Well, it's perfect then, isn't it?
Okay.
It's a deal.
What? - I'm just having a pee.
I didn't expect to see you here. - No.
No. I mean, well, I'm actually here...
You look great.
Yeah, I'm actually waiting for Bryony.
...and um, there she is. Bryony!
Hey! So we're through! - I don't know
Go away! Leave me alone!
Oh, baby, I've missed you so much.
Car been running OK? - Fine!
How ya been?
Unbelievably lonely.
Yeah, right!
I've been learning to knit.
The lady at the shop casts on for me.
See? - Nice.
So, you're not going to tell me about this great sex-life you've been having?
What great sex-life?
You know.
No, I don't know, Bryony.
I don't need anyone else, I'm through with all that, I love you.
Yeah.
Well fuck you buddy!
You're a fucking liar. I know what you've up to.
I've heard about Liz.
Kinky. Ooh, it must have been nice not having to use cotraception for a change.
Bryony, I don't know who you've been talking to--
I don't know why you bother with your stupid fucking lies.
This is the last fucking time. So fuck you. - Oh well, fuck you Bryony.
You know, I am sick of having a relationship where we don't even trust each other
Our relationship is based on suspicion, man - You know what Geoff? - What?
I don't particularly mind if you want to bonk somebody else.
It's your stupid pathetic lies that I can't stand. - Bryony, I've not been lying to you, I be....
Oasis.
Mother.
Just go away!
Why? - Cos of something I did.
Did you try and fuck her up the arse?
Hey man.
Someone's here to see you.
Prue.
Hi.
Hi
Look, I need to stay for a few days. Are you, um....
Yeah, sure, help yourself mate. Hit the couch. Have some eggs
Thanks.
Look, Mike, you're the only person I can trust.
Just don't tell anyone I'm here, OK?
Oh, no thanks, it makes me paranoid.
Gonna have some dinner? - I can cook my own.
What are you gonna have?
Steak.
Well, uh, I've got courgettes, and a little bit of pasta.
We could, maybe, have some together?
I don't want to impose
You alright?
Went down the wrong way
What? - Oh, god.
Oh shit, Neil.
What? What's wrong?
Only kidding.
Cheers. - Cheers.
You know what? - What?
This is really great, not being in a relationship.
Not to have to worry about what the other person's feeling.
You OK?
Ant. - What?
Why don't you go and see Prue tomorrow?
What for?
Well, so you can tell her you're OK. You know?
I don't think it's a very good idea.
Just in case you get lonely, man.
I can't reach this toe, it's too uncomfortable.
What the fuck are you doing?
You'd look good with short hair.
Would I?
Or a fringe.
Why don't you bonk somebody else? - Oh yeah, right, like who?
I mean, the guys aren't exactly flocking these days.
Not in here, buddy
What about Neil? - Fuck off
No, we're just friends, we're just mates, I mean, god.
Hi, everybody. - Hi.
Hey, how's Ant doing? - Oh, good I think. He's staying with Mike.
Mike?
Hey.
Come on.
It's OK.
Why do all these beautiful women spend their lives thinking about some guy?
It's not like that now.
It is.
You just don't know what you're missing.
Show me.
Hi. - Hi.
How's our little all-black today?
What d'you think?
I think this place is a mess.
I'd just like it if you could be a bit more tidy, OK?
Sure, Liz, that's fine. Sure
You know, there's nothing to worry about.
About what?
Well, the last month of pregnancy...
...you're bound to be sensitive to smells, and mess
You know, that sort of thing.
Is that right? - Yeah
They're cute.
How sweet.
From my aunt.
What are you staring at?
Fuck you.
You...you
you...
You look nice. - Thanks.
You're the only person who'se ever going to see what this leaf looks like.
Underneath.
You can look at it too
No. No-one else will ever see it.
It looks like all the other leaves.
Ant. Hi. - Hi.
Come in.
How are you?
Oh! Good. Yeah.
Um. I didn't expect to see you. - No.
A cup of tea? - No. No thanks.
Ant, I'm sorry about your film. - Oh...that's fine.
It wasn't very good, was it?
No.
It was terrible.
Load of crap.
Ant, I've missed you.
I was worried about you.
Don't be
You...
you...
...woman!
You're bleeding.
Don't worry.
I'm OK.
How did it go?
Oh. Yeah, good.
Hi. - Hi. Mike.
You OK?
Yeah. Ant just visited me.
Yeah, I brought him round.
I was hoping that maybe... - What?
Miss you, Prue.
Yeah.
Miss you too.
What? What is it?
Oh, fuck. Jesus. Shit.
Oh, fuck. What d'you...?
It's nothing.
Shit. Oh fuck, I'm sorry about...
Please don't die.
I love you.
Don't be silly.
What can I get ya?
Liz. What are you doing here?
I'm so bored.
Not for much longer.
Hello Liz. I mean, Rebecca.
How's my baby?
Oh, she's a big girl now, Kerry.
Careful, we don't want anything to happen to the baby.
Oh, my God. Congratulations! - Thank you.
Fortunately my father's extremely wealthy, so Junior will have all the luxuries.
Don't they make a lovely couple? - Have you chosen a name yet?
Neil.
If it's a girl.
I want you to leave now.
Come on. Let's get out of here. I don't like it, you might get jostled.
Come on, we're not welcome here. - Just fuck off!
Hey, Kerry. Kerry mate.
How are ya? - Good, mate.
Hey, um, what's going on here? Is there going to be a fight or something?
Excellent, eh?
I haven't had a fight since school. Come on. - Come on!
You went for a fucking homo! - Yeah?
Hey, you want to come to a party?
Um, yeah, great. Can I catch up with you later?
You OK?
- Yeah. - Good.
Hey, thanks a lot.
Did you get my booties?
Yeah. Yeah, I did.
Did you really knit them yourself? - Yes.
But I'm past all that now. I don't use patterns any more, I do my own stuff.
Fucking great party, Kerry. - Yeah, well what are we gonna do now?
Let's go back to town
Hey, no, I've got an idea. You know that girl Liz?
You know her address?
Geoff!
Hi, um, do I know you at all?
No. But you know her.
Bryony, what are you doing here? - I live here.
So, how the hell are you? - I've been going through hell, Bryony.
I've been trying to contact you for ages. I left phone messages on your answer phone...
...I left faxes for you.
May be I wanted to punish you. - Well, it worked Bryony. - Good
I want to fuck you - What?
Geoff. I'm gonna go, man.
Look, just wait a minute, OK? Wait for one minute.
Yeah, that's what I've heard.
Do you think we...
Do you think we could...
...have a relationship again?
Yeah. Yeah, sure.
Really? - Sure.
I love warm sexy models. I love wool.
Wow. Tidy.
Yeah. Things'll be a lot tidier from now on. - Why?
i'm moving out. - What?
I'm moving out.
Why?
I can't do this. You don't give a fuck about me.
What are you- Hold on a minute.
What d'you mean? I mean this was-
That was the whole idea. That was the whole deal, remember.
I lied to you.
I do love you.
I know.
You know?
Yes.
It's that obvious.
Yeah.
I love you too.
Do you?
Yeah. Mm-hmm.
Fuck off!
I'm not stupid. You're still in love with Geoff.
Oh, fuck off.
You are. I'm not stupid. - Oh, fuck you
You're totally fucked up, man
I'm not fucked up. - I mean what is this shit here?
He loves her, I love her. - Oh, no. No, no.
I can't do this. - If you can't do it, well fuck off.
...you're so selfish. You just think of yourself - Oh, no, no, no.
You're wrong! Wrong!
I'm not selfish!
Fucker!
Be careful of the baby. - Oh, be careful of the baby.
Be careful of the baby.
I don't even want the baby, remember?
Just look at me, Neil.
Look. Look at me, you fucker.
Look.
God.
Sorry.
Thought it was gonna rain.
You know when you said before...
You know, that...
...that you loved me.
Well, did you say that you loved me?
Yeah.
Really?
Why didn't you tell me?
Um, because...
I wasn't sure whether you were, you know...
...whether you wanted it to be like that. You know.
Like, lovey-dovey. - I do.
I do. I love lovey-dovey. I fucking lovey-dovey you.
God, you're beautiful.
What about Geoff?
Oh, I've finished with him. I can't stand him.
So you don't want him in your life any more, or...?
Oh, um, I better...I just got to go out for a bit.
I'll be back. I'll be back. OK? - OK.
See ya. - See ya.
Prue? Hi.
No, no, nothing new.
Um, I was just phoning 'cause...
well...
I've just done something really terrible.
I just told Neil that I loved him.
It's not true.
I lied.
Well.
Because he was going to leave me, he was walking out the door.
I just...
I don't really feel I can do this by myself.
Look, Liz. Don't worry.
Yeah. Yeah, I know.
Hey... Hey, it'll be OK.
What?
Well, I would, but I...I'm just getting over the flu, or something.
OK?
Yeah, I'll talk to you soon.
And don't forget to ring me when it starts cause I don't want to miss anything, alright?
OK. Bye
Why didn't you tell her what happened with Ant?
Because...she's got a lot to think about, and I didn't want to worry her.
Ohh...I did it again, didn't I?
Do you believe me?
What are they tooting for?
Anyway, that's it.
I've changed. You know.
It's good what happened. I really needed it to happen.
And, um.
I...did...sleep with...Liz
A few times.
You're not angry with me?
No.
Do you like these?
Yeah. Yeah, I love them. Fantastic.
I've been such a bastard, you know. I've been really cruel.
To Liz.
I just used her for sex, can you believe that?
It's so destructive.
Bryony?
We're going to be late.
Where's she gone?
The airport.
God, I'm gonna miss her. - Why? Where's she going?
Overseas. Forever.
Kerry. We gotta go. - What? What?
Kerry. Can I borrow your car? - No way. No.
We don't need any of your fucking knitting, OK mate?
So you stay the hell away.
What?
Is Geoff home?
- No.
Do you know where he is?
Get out of the car, mate.- What? Get out of the car.
What's the matter, mate? An emergency?
Everything's fine. Don't worry.
Bryony.
Jeez, what's he doing?
Bryony. Stop, I love you.
Stop. I love you. - Just ignore him
Bryony. - Go away.
Bryony. Bryony. Bryony Bryony, stop I love you.
You stupid bitch.
Geoff. Geoff, mate
Happy birthday.
It's...not my birthday.
Bill and Jeremy?
Damn. Can't even get the name right.
Look, Geoff, this isn't really such a good time for me.
No? Is Neil here? - No.
Nah.
I haven't seen Bryony in months.
We broke up.
How's everything with you and Neil?
Good.
Yeah, great. Good.
Ah, Geoff... Liz?
If things don't work out with you and Neil...
Yeah?
I'd make a good dad.
I'm great with kids.
What's so funny?
Look, I'm really serious.
No, Liz, I'm talking marriage, I'm talking the whole bit.
I'm serious. - You'e kidding, right
No. I'm not.
Look...
I know I'm a...I know I've been a bit of a prick.
But look I'm...I'm sorry, I'm really sorry
Oh, god, Geoff, I'm just...You know, I'm... - I know
How cute.
What the hell are you doing here?
Geoff, you're one sick fuck, did you know that?
Did you ask her? - Kerry, I told you to stay in the car.
What, did you bring that arsehole up here?
I...he said you owe his father 3000 dollars, so I thought like I can pay it for you...
