1
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:45,351
Richie...

2
00:01:45,482 --> 00:01:47,023
...time to get up.

3
00:02:12,386 --> 00:02:15,800
The harder you work, the more you're paid.
What's holding you up?

4
00:03:58,124 --> 00:04:00,613
Come on, we're wasting money.

5
00:04:08,594 --> 00:04:11,047
"Don't you touch me," I says.

6
00:04:11,138 --> 00:04:14,006
"I'm tired of being hit by men, already."

7
00:04:14,183 --> 00:04:15,343
So, I punched him.

8
00:04:15,434 --> 00:04:19,180
His feet went up, and when he hit
the floor, I thought he was dead.

9
00:04:19,271 --> 00:04:23,349
I says to him, "Sweetheart,
if you don't like it, you can lam it."

10
00:04:24,151 --> 00:04:25,394
So he lammed it.

11
00:04:41,712 --> 00:04:42,624
Richie?

12
00:04:45,549 --> 00:04:46,294
Bob?

13
00:04:52,223 --> 00:04:54,130
Richie, you taking a break already?

14
00:04:55,769 --> 00:04:56,798
So, Mr. Big Shot...

15
00:04:57,771 --> 00:04:59,144
...you finally showed up.

16
00:04:59,231 --> 00:05:01,720
I'm lucky I even found this place.

17
00:05:03,610 --> 00:05:04,639
Rosie...

18
00:05:05,278 --> 00:05:06,735
...this is my brother, Bob.

19
00:05:08,991 --> 00:05:11,231
Why did you wait a year to join us?

20
00:05:20,294 --> 00:05:22,618
Bob, watch it! My guitar, man.

21
00:05:23,798 --> 00:05:27,746
Sorry, I didn't know that piece of junk
was so important to you.

22
00:05:28,511 --> 00:05:30,383
I even sleep with it.

23
00:05:30,472 --> 00:05:31,799
It's no hole.

24
00:05:32,558 --> 00:05:33,587
Come on.

25
00:05:35,894 --> 00:05:37,434
Jersey Joe.

26
00:05:40,732 --> 00:05:42,059
Joe Louis.

27
00:05:42,652 --> 00:05:44,192
Rocky Marciano.

28
00:05:46,072 --> 00:05:48,643
You okay? Can you move it?

29
00:05:49,868 --> 00:05:50,897
You all right?

30
00:05:51,619 --> 00:05:53,028
Can you move it?

31
00:05:56,292 --> 00:05:57,832
You've grown, cabron.

32
00:05:58,586 --> 00:06:01,122
You're a big sucker for 16.

33
00:06:01,547 --> 00:06:03,703
- What's the matter, you miss me?
- No.

34
00:06:03,841 --> 00:06:04,788
You should have.

35
00:06:07,554 --> 00:06:09,461
What was it like inside?

36
00:06:09,723 --> 00:06:11,512
The joint is the joint.

37
00:06:12,183 --> 00:06:14,554
Why didn't you come home
after you got out?

38
00:06:14,686 --> 00:06:17,257
We haven't had a home since Steve died.

39
00:06:17,814 --> 00:06:19,888
Don't be such a dreamer, man.

40
00:06:20,901 --> 00:06:23,057
My dreams are pure rock 'n' roll.

41
00:06:37,627 --> 00:06:40,828
- Go wash your hands for dinner.
- Okay, mama.

42
00:07:02,028 --> 00:07:05,359
You little pigs.
I'm going to tell your mothers on you.

43
00:07:05,448 --> 00:07:06,726
Wait and see!

44
00:07:07,826 --> 00:07:09,283
You tell 'em, Rosie!

45
00:07:16,210 --> 00:07:18,699
Mom, what in hell are you doing here?

46
00:07:19,254 --> 00:07:20,332
Working.

47
00:07:20,422 --> 00:07:22,460
I came to take you out of this dump.

48
00:07:22,591 --> 00:07:24,381
Not before we make some money.

49
00:07:34,521 --> 00:07:35,894
I mean honest money.

50
00:07:37,148 --> 00:07:40,480
I've been working.
Why can't you believe for once?

51
00:07:43,154 --> 00:07:45,311
Mom, what's going on?

52
00:07:50,287 --> 00:07:53,121
We're getting out
of this shit hole tomorrow.

53
00:07:58,714 --> 00:07:59,743
Okay.

54
00:08:15,231 --> 00:08:16,260
Oh, God.

55
00:08:21,446 --> 00:08:22,475
Oh, please.

56
00:08:30,038 --> 00:08:31,660
Tell me you love me.

57
00:09:05,493 --> 00:09:07,982
Why didn't you tell me
this was your first time?

58
00:09:10,582 --> 00:09:11,778
You didn't ask.

59
00:09:19,841 --> 00:09:21,120
You coming, Richie?

60
00:09:21,218 --> 00:09:22,876
No, I'll wait up a while.

61
00:09:40,780 --> 00:09:42,652
You're really something, you know?

62
00:10:07,100 --> 00:10:08,047
What's up?

63
00:10:16,527 --> 00:10:18,019
I should ask you.

64
00:10:20,573 --> 00:10:22,694
Wait a minute.

65
00:10:24,660 --> 00:10:26,033
Did I horn in on you?

66
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:27,197
Just forget it.

67
00:10:29,373 --> 00:10:31,031
I thought you'd changed.

68
00:10:33,836 --> 00:10:35,162
Come on!

69
00:10:38,049 --> 00:10:39,839
Come stay with us sometime.

70
00:10:39,926 --> 00:10:43,293
Bob got us a house in Pacoima.
We could visit L.A.

71
00:10:43,805 --> 00:10:45,879
You'll be late for work.

72
00:10:46,391 --> 00:10:47,848
My dad wouldn't like it.

73
00:10:48,102 --> 00:10:49,381
Come on, let's go.

74
00:10:49,478 --> 00:10:50,805
I love you.

75
00:10:51,397 --> 00:10:52,723
'Bye, Connie.

76
00:10:54,150 --> 00:10:55,179
Goodbye.

77
00:11:04,328 --> 00:11:05,405
'Bye, Rosie.

78
00:11:30,855 --> 00:11:31,469
Rosa!

79
00:11:57,592 --> 00:12:00,710
Connie, don't let the baby fall
off the chair.

80
00:12:10,106 --> 00:12:12,061
Breakfast is ready. I'm off to work.

81
00:12:12,149 --> 00:12:14,436
- Don't ditch school today.
- Thanks, mom.

82
00:12:18,198 --> 00:12:21,232
Rosie, the baby's with the girls.
See you tonight.

83
00:12:38,007 --> 00:12:39,036
Quiet.

84
00:12:39,216 --> 00:12:40,709
Class is in session.

85
00:12:58,236 --> 00:13:00,441
Take out your history books. Chapter 7.

86
00:13:00,781 --> 00:13:02,439
Who is the blonde?

87
00:13:02,950 --> 00:13:05,784
I don't know. But I think I'm in love.

88
00:13:06,996 --> 00:13:08,109
Forget it.

89
00:13:08,206 --> 00:13:10,529
She's way above your class, High Tone.

90
00:13:11,292 --> 00:13:13,698
Just concentrate on that audition tonight.

91
00:13:28,769 --> 00:13:30,345
- Hi.
- Hi.

92
00:13:32,940 --> 00:13:34,930
They call me High Tone. You?

93
00:13:35,234 --> 00:13:36,145
Donna.

94
00:13:36,235 --> 00:13:38,024
Mind if I walk with you, Donna?

95
00:13:38,655 --> 00:13:39,732
Sure.

96
00:13:41,574 --> 00:13:43,695
I mean, no, I don't mind.

97
00:13:44,411 --> 00:13:46,318
Donna. That's a nice name.

98
00:13:47,664 --> 00:13:49,654
Look, call me Richie.

99
00:13:51,460 --> 00:13:52,952
This is my class.

100
00:13:56,173 --> 00:13:57,665
Where's yours?

101
00:13:58,926 --> 00:14:01,000
In the gym. I have P.E.

102
00:14:05,308 --> 00:14:06,386
You're late.

103
00:14:06,810 --> 00:14:07,839
Yeah.

104
00:14:11,648 --> 00:14:12,428
'Bye...

105
00:14:14,151 --> 00:14:15,180
...Donna.

106
00:14:16,362 --> 00:14:18,187
'Bye, High Tone.

107
00:14:34,046 --> 00:14:35,076
Say, Ed...

108
00:14:36,883 --> 00:14:38,873
...you wanna buy a kilo?

109
00:14:43,307 --> 00:14:44,715
You did it, carnalito!

110
00:14:44,808 --> 00:14:46,965
By the sweat of my balls.

111
00:14:49,188 --> 00:14:50,217
You did it!

112
00:15:25,185 --> 00:15:26,428
All right.

113
00:15:28,688 --> 00:15:30,181
Richie, meet Rudy.

114
00:15:30,732 --> 00:15:32,604
He's leader of the Silhouettes.

115
00:15:36,029 --> 00:15:37,854
Look, Valenzuela...

116
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,526
...Chino tells me you're a hot shot.

117
00:15:42,870 --> 00:15:43,947
What's that?

118
00:15:44,038 --> 00:15:46,657
- My amp.
- Looks like someone threw it away.

119
00:15:48,417 --> 00:15:50,408
Well, it's mine now.

120
00:15:53,090 --> 00:15:54,630
So, don't worry about it.

121
00:16:58,326 --> 00:16:59,782
No lie!

122
00:17:00,161 --> 00:17:04,655
The pendejo was smoking weed.
He was smoking milkweed!

123
00:17:05,292 --> 00:17:06,784
I got him back.

124
00:17:11,548 --> 00:17:14,037
Go on, Rosie, take a hit, man!

125
00:17:14,259 --> 00:17:16,831
Put a little mota in our love life.

126
00:17:19,849 --> 00:17:22,931
Baby, I need some action tonight.

127
00:17:34,989 --> 00:17:36,398
Come on, baby.

128
00:17:36,532 --> 00:17:39,366
Rosie, come here. I was only joking.

129
00:17:45,959 --> 00:17:47,784
Open the door.

130
00:17:48,379 --> 00:17:49,456
Go away.

131
00:17:50,547 --> 00:17:52,704
Know what? Let's get going.

132
00:17:54,636 --> 00:17:56,009
- Go where?
- Home.

133
00:17:56,221 --> 00:17:58,046
Other people sleep, you know.

134
00:18:00,308 --> 00:18:02,014
You don't have to split.

135
00:18:02,102 --> 00:18:03,594
Rosie, we're leaving.

136
00:18:03,812 --> 00:18:07,973
I'm serious. Stick around.
Rosie'll be out in a second.

137
00:18:08,567 --> 00:18:10,392
Rosie, come on out!

138
00:18:10,778 --> 00:18:12,685
Hassle it out with your old lady.

139
00:18:15,324 --> 00:18:16,982
I know what's happening.

140
00:18:21,373 --> 00:18:22,913
Good night, Bob.

141
00:18:29,506 --> 00:18:30,453
Come on, Rosie.

142
00:18:30,757 --> 00:18:32,831
Open the door.

143
00:18:37,973 --> 00:18:40,888
I said, "Open the door," goddamn it!

144
00:18:41,393 --> 00:18:43,134
Stop it. I'm trying to sleep.

145
00:18:43,771 --> 00:18:45,643
Open the goddamn door!

146
00:18:45,732 --> 00:18:50,356
Leave me alone! Go away!
Go get drunk for all I care.

147
00:18:50,903 --> 00:18:53,392
Okay, babe, you asked for it.

148
00:19:08,631 --> 00:19:12,330
Our first gig's next Friday night.
Let me see if you're ready by then.

149
00:19:12,510 --> 00:19:13,540
Right.

150
00:19:24,273 --> 00:19:26,145
Rosie, are you okay?

151
00:19:28,402 --> 00:19:30,060
Yeah, Richie, what do you want?

152
00:19:33,449 --> 00:19:34,609
Nothing.

153
00:19:34,784 --> 00:19:36,192
Sorry, my mistake.

154
00:19:40,164 --> 00:19:42,570
No, Bob. It's no use. No more.

155
00:19:44,044 --> 00:19:47,541
Don't you ever get enough?
Is this all you want me for?

156
00:19:49,090 --> 00:19:49,705
Come here.

157
00:20:03,689 --> 00:20:04,968
What is it?

158
00:20:05,358 --> 00:20:08,273
I made it. I'm in the Silhouettes.

159
00:20:08,654 --> 00:20:10,146
Really, mijo?

160
00:20:12,199 --> 00:20:13,691
That's wonderful.

161
00:20:20,166 --> 00:20:21,409
Who's the Silhouettes?

162
00:20:21,668 --> 00:20:23,908
This is not like I expected.

163
00:20:24,462 --> 00:20:26,702
You are not like I expected.

164
00:20:27,298 --> 00:20:29,455
I don't have a life here!

165
00:20:30,552 --> 00:20:32,127
You're always gone.

166
00:20:32,387 --> 00:20:34,591
Do you think I like being here alone?

167
00:20:34,681 --> 00:20:37,430
Look, Rosie, you're not my wife!

168
00:20:39,352 --> 00:20:41,010
Stop being such a drag.

169
00:20:42,063 --> 00:20:44,054
What the shit's eating you anyway?

170
00:20:49,363 --> 00:20:50,440
I'm pregnant.

171
00:21:00,834 --> 00:21:02,659
Aren't you going to say anything?

172
00:21:03,003 --> 00:21:04,661
What's there to say?

173
00:21:05,964 --> 00:21:07,337
It's not my first...

174
00:21:07,966 --> 00:21:09,458
...or my last.

175
00:21:24,484 --> 00:21:26,522
You son of a bitch!

176
00:21:28,405 --> 00:21:29,981
What's going on?

177
00:21:33,869 --> 00:21:35,527
Bitch! You bitch.

178
00:21:36,538 --> 00:21:38,612
Is it my fault you got pregnant?

179
00:21:41,376 --> 00:21:42,869
Richie, don't!

180
00:21:43,545 --> 00:21:45,536
- It's none of your business.
- But I...

181
00:21:51,888 --> 00:21:54,044
I am not your puta!

182
00:21:56,309 --> 00:21:58,050
Do you always carry a guitar?

183
00:21:59,063 --> 00:22:00,555
It's my future.

184
00:22:00,648 --> 00:22:02,354
Sure of yourself, aren't you?

185
00:22:02,441 --> 00:22:04,266
Yeah. Aren't you?

186
00:22:05,736 --> 00:22:07,892
No, I'm the new kid on the block.

187
00:22:08,405 --> 00:22:09,981
Poor little rich girl.

188
00:22:10,909 --> 00:22:12,401
I'm not rich.

189
00:22:13,578 --> 00:22:14,607
Right.

190
00:22:19,751 --> 00:22:21,077
My dad.

191
00:22:24,715 --> 00:22:27,039
I want a place like this
for my mom one day.

192
00:22:28,552 --> 00:22:29,582
Hi, Daddy!

193
00:22:34,684 --> 00:22:36,176
I have to go.

194
00:22:38,396 --> 00:22:39,425
Listen...

195
00:22:40,523 --> 00:22:43,391
...I'm playing at a garage party tonight.
Want to come?

196
00:22:44,652 --> 00:22:47,319
- Garage party?
- It's my big debut.

197
00:22:47,489 --> 00:22:50,322
It'll be a real gas, kitten. Please, come.

198
00:22:55,038 --> 00:22:55,736
Okay.

199
00:22:58,459 --> 00:22:59,868
I'll meet you there.

200
00:22:59,961 --> 00:23:02,711
No problem.
I wrote down the address for you...

201
00:23:03,548 --> 00:23:04,874
...in case.

202
00:23:10,096 --> 00:23:11,125
- 'Bye.
- 'Bye.

203
00:23:26,906 --> 00:23:28,233
Who's the big kid?

204
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:30,278
A friend.

205
00:23:31,745 --> 00:23:33,819
What is he, Italian?

206
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:04,193
- Mom, look at Richie.
- I see him, baby.

207
00:25:00,923 --> 00:25:03,246
Mama, when's Richie going to sing?

208
00:25:03,384 --> 00:25:06,087
Pretty soon. Now stop asking me.

209
00:25:09,515 --> 00:25:12,549
We thank all of you
for attending our dance tonight.

210
00:25:12,894 --> 00:25:15,727
We hope you had an evening to remember.

211
00:25:16,064 --> 00:25:18,055
So, until next time...

212
00:25:18,692 --> 00:25:22,687
...speaking for myself, Rudy Castro,
and all the guys in the band...

213
00:25:22,779 --> 00:25:26,775
...we are the Silhouettes,
bidding you a good night.

214
00:25:38,129 --> 00:25:39,704
Goodnight, Richie.

215
00:25:42,592 --> 00:25:45,128
What do they mean, not letting you sing?

216
00:25:46,721 --> 00:25:48,343
Who do they want, Elvis?

217
00:25:48,431 --> 00:25:51,216
No big deal. I'll make them come around.

218
00:25:51,685 --> 00:25:54,850
They don't know who they're dealing with.

219
00:25:56,064 --> 00:25:59,728
My granddaddy
was a full-blooded Yaqui Indian.

220
00:26:18,005 --> 00:26:20,411
What's the matter? Bad dreams?

221
00:26:24,136 --> 00:26:25,794
I'm sorry, carnal.

222
00:26:26,181 --> 00:26:28,670
I didn't mean to wake you up but...

223
00:26:29,142 --> 00:26:31,465
...I need a place to crash.

224
00:26:33,688 --> 00:26:36,723
No, man, here. Come on. Get some rest.

225
00:26:46,660 --> 00:26:48,318
Keep your ass to the wall.

226
00:26:48,411 --> 00:26:51,529
I'm so messed up,
I may take you for Rosie.

227
00:27:03,303 --> 00:27:05,971
Where'd you get this picture of Steve?

228
00:27:06,223 --> 00:27:08,213
Mom gave it to me after the funeral.

229
00:27:09,726 --> 00:27:11,883
I wish I could have been there.

230
00:27:19,904 --> 00:27:22,903
But he was your dad, anyway. Not mine.

231
00:27:25,201 --> 00:27:27,524
Don't forget to turn off the light.

232
00:27:37,006 --> 00:27:38,498
You been laid yet?

233
00:27:38,882 --> 00:27:41,716
I'm serious. I know what your problem is.

234
00:27:42,428 --> 00:27:44,465
Sperm pressure. It's scientific.

235
00:27:44,555 --> 00:27:48,385
You got hard-ons all the time,
nightmares, wet dreams...

236
00:27:48,475 --> 00:27:50,466
Shut up and go to sleep!

237
00:27:54,899 --> 00:27:58,064
A kid your age
needs an authority figure around.

238
00:27:59,070 --> 00:28:01,061
Believe me, I know.

239
00:28:07,371 --> 00:28:09,943
I tried to go, Richie. Honestly.

240
00:28:10,166 --> 00:28:12,833
- You don't have to apologise.
- Who's apologising?

241
00:28:13,169 --> 00:28:14,661
My dad wouldn't let me.

242
00:28:15,087 --> 00:28:16,710
- Honest to God?
- Honest.

243
00:28:19,301 --> 00:28:21,090
I really wanted to be there.

244
00:28:23,805 --> 00:28:25,463
Cowboy Palace!

245
00:28:29,645 --> 00:28:32,395
I can't do it, honey. Richie's a minor.

246
00:28:32,482 --> 00:28:34,638
He'll be singing, not drinking.

247
00:28:35,276 --> 00:28:37,682
Rock 'n' roll to a bunch of cowboys.

248
00:28:38,571 --> 00:28:41,060
My husband, Steve,
drank himself to death in here.

249
00:28:41,699 --> 00:28:43,606
Don't you owe his boy something?

250
00:28:44,035 --> 00:28:46,109
We should've brought Chino.
I need a drummer.

251
00:28:46,204 --> 00:28:49,321
Screw the Silhouettes.
I'll keep the beat for you.

252
00:28:49,749 --> 00:28:52,701
They got drums inside.
What're you going to play?

253
00:28:52,795 --> 00:28:53,824
Boney Maronie.

254
00:28:54,546 --> 00:28:58,328
Boney Maronie? To these shit-stompers?

255
00:29:03,806 --> 00:29:05,512
Howard, they're here!

256
00:29:05,767 --> 00:29:07,592
Cut the jukebox.

257
00:29:10,105 --> 00:29:12,095
Testing, one, two, three.

258
00:29:12,524 --> 00:29:15,938
Sure good to see you folks
out there tonight. Everybody having fun?

259
00:29:16,027 --> 00:29:17,223
Turn the jukebox back on!

260
00:29:17,321 --> 00:29:21,187
One of our local boys is making his
professional debut tonight right here.

261
00:29:21,283 --> 00:29:23,689
Let's give a great big
round of applause for...

262
00:29:23,828 --> 00:29:27,408
...Ricky "Ricardo" Valenzuela.

263
00:29:35,674 --> 00:29:36,703
Howdy.

264
00:29:44,057 --> 00:29:45,847
Here's one out of Lubbock, Texas.

265
00:29:45,934 --> 00:29:47,307
Lubbock, Texas?

266
00:29:47,561 --> 00:29:48,839
Follow me.

267
00:31:10,024 --> 00:31:13,225
"You don't know
what you've been missing"

268
00:31:16,614 --> 00:31:19,068
We were rocking, man, we were rolling!

269
00:31:19,243 --> 00:31:22,360
Didn't I tell you? We don't need no band.

270
00:31:22,454 --> 00:31:27,161
We just play the bars with the drummer.
Me, for instance.

271
00:31:27,376 --> 00:31:29,283
I'm talking about making money!

272
00:31:29,378 --> 00:31:33,670
I'm talking about making music.
My music. That's all I care about.

273
00:31:37,136 --> 00:31:39,127
What you need is exposure.

274
00:31:39,556 --> 00:31:43,338
A big place where you can sell
a lot of tickets, put a lot of posters up.

275
00:31:43,476 --> 00:31:44,672
You gotta think big!

276
00:31:44,811 --> 00:31:47,478
- You want to be my manager?
- Sure, I can do it.

277
00:31:47,730 --> 00:31:51,180
I can get the American Legion Hall.
Steve was a World War I veteran.

278
00:31:51,276 --> 00:31:53,231
What, you don't think I can do it?

279
00:31:54,529 --> 00:31:56,484
Just for that you can be my flunky.

280
00:31:56,657 --> 00:31:59,822
Mom, thanks, but no thanks.
Anybody but Bob.

281
00:32:01,287 --> 00:32:04,202
- What does that mean?
- Just take care of Rosie, okay stud?

282
00:32:05,416 --> 00:32:07,157
Try staying home for a change.

283
00:32:08,587 --> 00:32:09,616
Listen, punk...

284
00:32:09,713 --> 00:32:11,834
- I don't need you...
- Stop it, both of you.

285
00:32:11,923 --> 00:32:13,629
Richie, don't be so "High Tone."

286
00:32:13,717 --> 00:32:17,795
And you Bob, you're your brother's keeper.
You never heard of that?

287
00:32:19,473 --> 00:32:21,263
'Morning Connie, Richie.

288
00:32:23,686 --> 00:32:24,715
'Morning.

289
00:32:25,438 --> 00:32:27,927
You missed a great show last night.

290
00:32:28,065 --> 00:32:30,139
Richie was wonderful.

291
00:32:30,443 --> 00:32:32,480
Really? I'm not surprised.

292
00:32:34,031 --> 00:32:36,021
I'm flying this coop.

293
00:32:36,241 --> 00:32:37,568
Catch you all later.

294
00:32:37,993 --> 00:32:39,450
I'm late for work.

295
00:32:39,578 --> 00:32:41,450
What did I do with my purse?

296
00:32:41,830 --> 00:32:43,406
"Flying the coop."

297
00:32:43,790 --> 00:32:44,868
That's it!

298
00:32:45,334 --> 00:32:49,376
"Richard Valenzuela and his
Flying Guitar."

299
00:33:01,059 --> 00:33:04,971
- This is it. What do you think?
- This is beautiful, man.

300
00:33:05,063 --> 00:33:07,516
With some publicity
we can raise the roof.

301
00:33:07,607 --> 00:33:11,223
You're dreaming, Valenzuela.
They wouldn't even let us into this place.

302
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,643
No, I told you.
My mom, she set it all up.

303
00:33:14,198 --> 00:33:16,817
Since when is your mama
running this band?

304
00:33:17,493 --> 00:33:21,156
- We need all the breaks we can get.
- I heard that. Richie's right, man.

305
00:33:21,247 --> 00:33:22,325
No dice, Chino.

306
00:33:22,666 --> 00:33:25,867
I decide what's best for the Silhouettes,
and this ain't it.

307
00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:28,081
So, let's beat it out of here.

308
00:33:28,463 --> 00:33:29,955
What's his problem?

309
00:33:33,594 --> 00:33:35,252
Are you guys coming or what?

310
00:33:42,019 --> 00:33:43,511
I guess it's "what."

311
00:33:52,738 --> 00:33:53,981
What's going on?

312
00:33:54,073 --> 00:33:55,862
Show business, mijo.

313
00:33:57,077 --> 00:34:00,242
Show business? These look like shit.

314
00:34:00,539 --> 00:34:02,695
A monkey can draw better than this.

315
00:34:03,208 --> 00:34:03,906
Oh yeah?

316
00:34:09,590 --> 00:34:11,711
Should have kept my mouth shut.

317
00:34:11,801 --> 00:34:14,800
Every wall, every liquor store.

318
00:34:15,221 --> 00:34:17,544
Every telephone pole in town.

319
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,674
Hit them all! Now, tear buns!

320
00:34:41,666 --> 00:34:45,163
We need a little help
hanging that crepe paper across there.

321
00:34:46,254 --> 00:34:50,166
Those chairs don't go there, Felipe.
They don't go there.

322
00:34:53,303 --> 00:34:57,429
You're looking really handsome.
The girls are gonna go crazy over you.

323
00:34:57,515 --> 00:35:00,183
- There's only one girl I care about.
- Who's that?

324
00:35:00,936 --> 00:35:02,594
Nobody you'd know.

325
00:35:03,814 --> 00:35:06,730
- Is everything in order in here?
- Perfect. Thanks, Rosie.

326
00:35:08,694 --> 00:35:10,400
We're gonna pack the place, Mom.

327
00:35:10,489 --> 00:35:14,069
I hope so. We paid for this place
with our rent money.

328
00:35:16,620 --> 00:35:20,829
Someday I'll buy you
the house of your dreams. I promise.

329
00:35:20,916 --> 00:35:23,405
Tell me about it. Where is Bob?

330
00:36:04,212 --> 00:36:07,211
Three cups, thirty cents.
Here's your change.

331
00:36:07,423 --> 00:36:11,799
Ten cases. Counting the door, that's $150.

332
00:36:11,887 --> 00:36:13,545
We gotta do this again.

333
00:36:31,074 --> 00:36:33,195
- Did you find Bob?
- What do you want? No.

334
00:36:33,285 --> 00:36:35,074
- Did you look?
- No!

335
00:36:47,508 --> 00:36:49,997
- He's pretty good.
- He's great.

336
00:36:52,054 --> 00:36:53,428
What'll you have?

337
00:36:53,556 --> 00:36:54,834
Can I have a Coke?

338
00:36:57,184 --> 00:36:58,842
Here's a little number...

339
00:36:59,145 --> 00:37:02,476
...for the criminal element here tonight.

340
00:37:03,233 --> 00:37:05,687
And you know who you are.

341
00:37:33,933 --> 00:37:35,674
Look at my Richie...

342
00:37:35,935 --> 00:37:37,972
...shining like a star.

343
00:37:40,482 --> 00:37:42,057
Look at Bob.

344
00:37:49,783 --> 00:37:53,066
You're drunk, Bob. Give me that bottle.

345
00:38:22,734 --> 00:38:24,725
That's my brother.

346
00:38:26,406 --> 00:38:27,732
Asshole!

347
00:38:47,886 --> 00:38:49,260
Stop it!

348
00:39:17,126 --> 00:39:18,452
Why, Bob?

349
00:39:19,295 --> 00:39:21,369
How could you do this to Richie?

350
00:39:22,089 --> 00:39:25,254
To Richie? I did this to me!

351
00:39:25,342 --> 00:39:28,507
That's my Bob.
Always thinking of others first.

352
00:39:28,764 --> 00:39:32,047
- Shut your goddamn mouth!
- Don't take it out on Rosie.

353
00:39:34,978 --> 00:39:36,518
You don't understand.

354
00:39:37,731 --> 00:39:40,398
You don't understand a goddamn thing.

355
00:39:43,029 --> 00:39:46,692
What do you think,
the whole world revolves around you?

356
00:40:06,637 --> 00:40:08,212
Is this where you live?

357
00:40:09,181 --> 00:40:10,210
No.

358
00:40:10,766 --> 00:40:13,337
I live down the street.

359
00:40:14,103 --> 00:40:15,595
Hop in, I'll take you home.

360
00:40:17,232 --> 00:40:19,222
Why don't we just go for a drive?

361
00:40:19,359 --> 00:40:21,184
Okay, you drive.

362
00:40:26,366 --> 00:40:28,024
What do you think?

363
00:40:29,703 --> 00:40:31,030
Not bad...

364
00:40:31,747 --> 00:40:33,323
...for a birthday present.

365
00:40:36,377 --> 00:40:38,035
You say you're not rich?

366
00:40:38,337 --> 00:40:42,333
My dad sells cars.
Can I help it if he knows his business?

367
00:40:44,177 --> 00:40:46,666
He just didn't want me
walking home anymore.

368
00:40:49,141 --> 00:40:50,467
Because of me?

369
00:40:53,895 --> 00:40:55,886
How come you've been avoiding me?

370
00:40:58,733 --> 00:41:00,439
Is it that blow-out at the dance?

371
00:41:00,819 --> 00:41:03,569
- Don't be silly.
- Then what's the problem?

372
00:41:07,285 --> 00:41:08,445
My dad.

373
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:12,238
Does it mean I can't ask you out
on a regular date?

374
00:41:14,792 --> 00:41:16,699
Why don't you ask me?

375
00:41:20,090 --> 00:41:22,211
I got my own wheels now.

376
00:41:22,301 --> 00:41:24,338
Who cares what my father thinks?

377
00:41:56,003 --> 00:42:00,212
Get your ass in gear.
We still got a lot of places to stop at.

378
00:42:01,342 --> 00:42:02,715
Look at this.

379
00:42:04,094 --> 00:42:07,426
It's Woody Woodpecker and Buzz Buzzard.

380
00:42:08,016 --> 00:42:09,971
This is the real stuff.

381
00:42:10,143 --> 00:42:13,557
- They make cartoons out of these things.
- Can it, jerk-off.

382
00:42:13,647 --> 00:42:15,187
It's kiddie stuff.

383
00:42:15,899 --> 00:42:17,557
Finders, keepers.

384
00:42:39,216 --> 00:42:39,960
Yes?

385
00:42:45,807 --> 00:42:47,180
He lives here. Why?

386
00:43:06,745 --> 00:43:08,700
Happy birthday, mija.

387
00:43:12,710 --> 00:43:15,199
- This man here wants to talk to you.
- Hi, Richie.

388
00:43:15,296 --> 00:43:17,037
Mind if I call you Richie?

389
00:43:17,131 --> 00:43:20,462
My name is Bob Keene, I'm president
of Del-Fi Records in Hollywood.

390
00:43:22,262 --> 00:43:23,671
I don't speak Spanish.

391
00:43:24,931 --> 00:43:26,969
But we can speak business.

392
00:43:27,350 --> 00:43:29,720
Let me just say that I...

393
00:43:30,062 --> 00:43:34,058
...I really dig your music,
and I'd like to record it.

394
00:43:34,734 --> 00:43:36,226
What do you say?

395
00:43:38,863 --> 00:43:42,905
Welcome to Del-Fi Records.
I work out of the basement.

396
00:43:44,369 --> 00:43:46,360
This is your recording studio?

397
00:43:47,497 --> 00:43:49,654
The Ampex is good,
the mikes are excellent.

398
00:43:49,791 --> 00:43:54,119
What more do you need? Relax, Richie.
This is just for starters.

399
00:43:55,255 --> 00:43:56,913
I thought we'd start off easy.

400
00:43:57,007 --> 00:43:59,460
Play a few riffs,
move on to a couple of vocals.

401
00:43:59,551 --> 00:44:03,547
Nothing heavy.
When you're ready, we'll record.

402
00:44:03,889 --> 00:44:05,345
What? Do you mean today?

403
00:44:05,432 --> 00:44:06,841
What about my band?

404
00:44:08,728 --> 00:44:12,225
Frankly, I can't use any of them.
Is that a problem?

405
00:44:12,315 --> 00:44:14,140
Yeah. They're my buddies.

406
00:44:17,612 --> 00:44:18,938
Thank you.

407
00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:20,400
Excuse me.

408
00:44:20,532 --> 00:44:22,025
Wait, Richie.

409
00:44:22,409 --> 00:44:25,907
Wait a minute, man.
I understand about friendship.

410
00:44:26,288 --> 00:44:27,946
I'm being honest here.

411
00:44:28,374 --> 00:44:31,372
Not everybody in this world
gets a shot at the brass ring.

412
00:44:31,461 --> 00:44:35,457
You're going to have to ask yourself
what's more important, your friends...

413
00:44:35,548 --> 00:44:36,957
...or your music.

414
00:44:55,653 --> 00:44:56,979
My family.

415
00:45:52,338 --> 00:45:54,827
- Is that you?
- Richie, come here.

416
00:46:00,430 --> 00:46:02,171
Did you trace this or what?

417
00:46:02,265 --> 00:46:05,098
Trace, hell. This is free hand.
Look at this.

418
00:46:06,311 --> 00:46:09,760
Art contest. $500 in prizes.

419
00:46:10,566 --> 00:46:12,307
Think I should enter it?

420
00:46:12,568 --> 00:46:14,274
Yeah, go for broke.

421
00:47:20,181 --> 00:47:21,757
Fantastic.

422
00:47:43,915 --> 00:47:47,828
I wasn't there when it happened.
But in the dream, it's like I am.

423
00:47:50,214 --> 00:47:51,872
My best friend got killed.

424
00:47:53,384 --> 00:47:56,299
Got crushed by one of those
falling planes.

425
00:47:57,138 --> 00:47:58,713
Where were you that day?

426
00:47:59,473 --> 00:48:01,131
My grandfather's funeral.

427
00:48:02,518 --> 00:48:04,675
I guess his death saved my life.

428
00:48:07,898 --> 00:48:09,307
Thank you.

429
00:48:12,946 --> 00:48:16,609
My mom says it means
I was saved for something special.

430
00:48:17,909 --> 00:48:19,236
Know what it is?

431
00:48:19,828 --> 00:48:21,320
Rock 'n' roll?

432
00:48:26,252 --> 00:48:27,910
I'm gonna be a star...

433
00:48:29,255 --> 00:48:32,290
...because stars don't fall
out of the sky, do they?

434
00:48:37,723 --> 00:48:40,675
You think I'm gonna dump garbage
for the rest of my life?

435
00:48:40,768 --> 00:48:42,557
How will you support the baby?

436
00:48:42,645 --> 00:48:46,557
Drawing Woody Woodpecker?
I don't want that piece of junk in here.

437
00:48:46,649 --> 00:48:50,312
Then to hell with you.
You don't respect any shit I do.

438
00:48:50,612 --> 00:48:52,602
What about your respect for me?

439
00:49:05,752 --> 00:49:08,953
I almost have to rape her
just to have sex.

440
00:49:11,133 --> 00:49:12,791
To her, it's dirty.

441
00:49:18,474 --> 00:49:19,503
Look, Bob...

442
00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:23,551
...it's cool if you move in with me...

443
00:49:24,106 --> 00:49:28,101
...but what about when the baby comes?
Shouldn't you be with Rosie?

444
00:49:29,403 --> 00:49:32,070
My old man wasn't around
when I was born.

445
00:49:32,572 --> 00:49:34,065
Why should I be?

446
00:49:37,036 --> 00:49:40,368
- Figure it out.
- There you are, mijo.

447
00:49:40,456 --> 00:49:42,494
Bob Keene called me at the restaurant.

448
00:49:42,583 --> 00:49:45,785
You're recording at Gold Star Studios
next Wednesday.

449
00:49:46,713 --> 00:49:48,039
Right in Hollywood.

450
00:49:49,299 --> 00:49:50,792
Didn't you hear me?

451
00:49:51,051 --> 00:49:54,050
That means he's going to put you
under contract with Del-Fi.

452
00:49:58,851 --> 00:50:01,422
Richie, I'm so happy.

453
00:50:02,813 --> 00:50:05,100
It's only the beginning, mijo.

454
00:50:08,610 --> 00:50:10,316
Bob has great news, too.

455
00:50:10,404 --> 00:50:11,979
Come on, tell her.

456
00:50:13,700 --> 00:50:16,189
That art contest? I won it.

457
00:50:17,287 --> 00:50:19,242
$500 in prizes.

458
00:50:19,330 --> 00:50:21,072
That's great, mijo.

459
00:50:21,249 --> 00:50:23,738
With the baby coming and everything
the money'll...

460
00:50:23,835 --> 00:50:25,790
In art lessons.

461
00:50:27,548 --> 00:50:30,037
See, they gave me a drafting table.

462
00:50:34,346 --> 00:50:36,337
All our dreams are gonna come true.

463
00:50:36,725 --> 00:50:38,217
I just know it.

464
00:50:53,701 --> 00:50:54,814
Cut.

465
00:50:56,662 --> 00:50:58,071
Let's start again.

466
00:51:04,253 --> 00:51:08,083
Cut. Don't rewrite the song. Just do
it the way you did it the first time.

467
00:51:20,479 --> 00:51:21,508
Cut.

468
00:51:22,064 --> 00:51:23,473
That was our fault.

469
00:51:38,958 --> 00:51:39,987
Cut.

470
00:51:40,209 --> 00:51:44,869
That's more right on, but that "little
darling" line, I like that better.

471
00:51:58,061 --> 00:52:01,179
I don't see what's wrong with those takes.
That's how I sing.

472
00:52:01,273 --> 00:52:03,940
It's gotta be clean.
Each take has to be identical.

473
00:52:04,025 --> 00:52:06,230
- Why?
- So, that we can edit later.

474
00:52:06,528 --> 00:52:08,565
- This isn't Mexico.
- Who said it was?

475
00:52:08,655 --> 00:52:12,698
I lived there. I understand the tradition
of the song, always changing the lyrics.

476
00:52:12,784 --> 00:52:15,617
I've never even been to Mexico.
My music is my music.

477
00:52:15,705 --> 00:52:17,280
You tell him, carnal.

478
00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:22,582
How many more takes?

479
00:52:23,588 --> 00:52:25,578
As many as it takes. Okay?

480
00:52:39,522 --> 00:52:40,551
Cut.

481
00:52:41,524 --> 00:52:44,440
That was good. Same energy.
Just try it again.

482
00:53:01,378 --> 00:53:03,036
Shall I get a new role of tape?

483
00:53:05,424 --> 00:53:08,257
I think we got him.
I can cut something here.

484
00:53:09,762 --> 00:53:13,757
Nice work, Richie. 60 takes, man.
How's the throat?

485
00:53:14,308 --> 00:53:16,299
I think we got it all.

486
00:53:17,020 --> 00:53:20,351
60 takes?
I didn't hear a difference in one of them.

487
00:53:21,441 --> 00:53:22,933
I'm ready to go home.

488
00:53:23,735 --> 00:53:26,734
I want to discuss one thing with you.
Come here.

489
00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:33,649
- What is it?
- Your professional name.

490
00:53:34,872 --> 00:53:39,497
From now on, it's Ritchie with a "t."
R-I-T-C-H-I-E.

491
00:53:39,628 --> 00:53:41,618
I got a new last name for you, too.

492
00:53:41,964 --> 00:53:45,046
Valens with an "s." Ritchie Valens.

493
00:53:46,093 --> 00:53:48,249
- How does that grab you?
- I don't like it.

494
00:53:48,345 --> 00:53:51,878
That's for shit, man!
Valenzuela was our dad's last name.

495
00:53:51,975 --> 00:53:54,973
- You can't just cut it in half.
- It's no big deal.

496
00:53:55,103 --> 00:53:59,348
People in this business change their names
like they change wives.

497
00:53:59,649 --> 00:54:02,102
Even me. My last name is Kuhn.

498
00:54:02,610 --> 00:54:03,308
Look.

499
00:54:04,612 --> 00:54:06,021
Trust me on this one.

500
00:54:07,782 --> 00:54:09,239
Let's just go.

501
00:54:14,508 --> 00:54:15,669
Thanks.

502
00:54:15,969 --> 00:54:19,336
Look, it could've been worse.
You could have been Ricky Zuela.

503
00:54:28,608 --> 00:54:30,017
- Hello.
- Hello?

504
00:54:31,236 --> 00:54:32,479
Is Donna in?

505
00:54:32,570 --> 00:54:35,653
No, Donna's not in. This is her father.
Can I help you?

506
00:54:35,782 --> 00:54:38,485
Daddy, who is it? Is it Ritchie?

507
00:54:43,165 --> 00:54:45,832
Could you tell her
that Ritchie called again, please?

508
00:54:45,918 --> 00:54:47,161
Yeah, okay.

509
00:54:57,722 --> 00:55:01,421
He plays that goddamn jungle music!
Need I say more?

510
00:55:02,644 --> 00:55:05,809
Come on, honey.
You said yourself it's not serious.

511
00:55:06,815 --> 00:55:10,727
I hate Dad when he acts like that!
I just hate him!

512
00:55:10,819 --> 00:55:14,399
Good morning, you survivors!
You want to call? I'd love to talk to you.

513
00:55:14,572 --> 00:55:18,319
We got evicted. We're sleeping
in the car. My wife is pregnant.

514
00:55:18,703 --> 00:55:20,159
You're down about it?

515
00:55:20,246 --> 00:55:23,447
- She's in the car now.
- She's pregnant and sleeping in the car?

516
00:55:23,541 --> 00:55:25,116
She's there right now.

517
00:55:25,418 --> 00:55:27,871
- What kind of car do you have?
- A Rolls Royce.

518
00:55:31,633 --> 00:55:33,873
Your mom listens to KFWB, right?

519
00:55:34,094 --> 00:55:37,508
Ritchie Valens' mom out there
in Pacoima listens, too.

520
00:55:37,597 --> 00:55:40,383
And she's gotta be proud of her boy today!

521
00:55:41,311 --> 00:55:44,927
Ritchie's got a song headed
for the top of the charts, with a bullet.

522
00:55:45,315 --> 00:55:49,144
Ritchie Valens, Come On, Let's Go.

523
00:55:52,322 --> 00:55:54,229
- How are you?
- Pretty good, thanks.

524
00:55:55,159 --> 00:55:56,437
Valens... Valens.

525
00:55:57,661 --> 00:55:59,201
French, right?

526
00:55:59,663 --> 00:56:01,037
How did you know?

527
00:56:02,541 --> 00:56:03,914
Come on, man.

528
00:56:04,001 --> 00:56:06,288
He's one of those barrio kids
from the Valley.

529
00:56:06,378 --> 00:56:07,407
Not for long.

530
00:56:07,504 --> 00:56:08,582
Pretty good.

531
00:56:10,299 --> 00:56:11,495
I know.

532
00:56:18,350 --> 00:56:22,048
Everybody keep it down.
That's my Ritchie on the radio.

533
00:56:25,774 --> 00:56:29,852
- How about a beer?
- Not while I'm working, but I'll get you one.

534
00:56:43,835 --> 00:56:46,122
No, I'm sorry. Donna's studying.

535
00:56:49,966 --> 00:56:53,713
Supper time, pizza fans!
Here's a contest to kick off summer!

536
00:56:53,804 --> 00:56:57,882
We have a special mystery guest
here at the studio. Say hello, Mr. Guest.

537
00:56:58,184 --> 00:56:59,297
Hello.

538
00:57:00,061 --> 00:57:03,344
Here's what you do. Our guest comes
from the San Fernando Valley.

539
00:57:03,439 --> 00:57:07,186
What does he have in common with the
Vice President of the United States?

540
00:57:07,318 --> 00:57:11,777
The first person to identify the mystery
guest will win 12 fresh, hot pizzas.

541
00:57:11,864 --> 00:57:16,192
Here's the kicker: this mystery guest
will deliver the pizzas...

542
00:57:16,285 --> 00:57:20,661
...and have a pizza party at yourplace,
free, from KFWB.

543
00:57:34,264 --> 00:57:36,089
No, Donna's not here.

544
00:57:37,350 --> 00:57:38,379
Thank you.

545
00:57:38,476 --> 00:57:40,467
- She's out on a date.
- Yeah.

546
00:57:42,105 --> 00:57:43,383
Right.

547
00:57:53,534 --> 00:57:55,323
Yes, may I help you?

548
00:57:55,787 --> 00:57:57,114
May I see Donna?

549
00:57:58,457 --> 00:57:59,617
Please.

550
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:01,409
I know she's here.

551
00:58:03,795 --> 00:58:05,335
Just one moment.

552
00:58:08,508 --> 00:58:09,704
Donna?

553
00:58:12,512 --> 00:58:13,625
It's Ritchie.

554
00:58:13,722 --> 00:58:17,587
Now, it's better not to lead him on dear.
You know how your father is.

555
00:58:18,643 --> 00:58:20,100
Okay.

556
00:58:24,609 --> 00:58:25,982
Hi, Ritchie.

557
00:58:29,071 --> 00:58:30,480
Can we take a walk?

558
00:58:36,663 --> 00:58:38,156
No, I can't.

559
00:58:40,918 --> 00:58:44,119
Okay, let's not beat around the bush.
Are you seeing other guys?

560
00:58:45,632 --> 00:58:49,212
Yeah, I've been out a few times.
What's wrong with that?

561
00:58:50,220 --> 00:58:51,498
You're my girl.

562
00:58:52,639 --> 00:58:54,629
When am I supposed to see you?

563
00:58:55,975 --> 00:58:59,638
I can't tag along to your appearances.
All those other girls...

564
00:58:59,730 --> 00:59:01,970
I don't care about those other girls!

565
00:59:04,610 --> 00:59:06,399
What am I supposed to do?

566
00:59:08,322 --> 00:59:10,645
You don't have time for me right now.

567
00:59:10,741 --> 00:59:12,317
You wanna break it off?

568
00:59:19,416 --> 00:59:21,324
I don't know what I want anymore.

569
00:59:24,589 --> 00:59:26,212
I'll see you around sometime.

570
00:59:27,342 --> 00:59:28,668
Ritchie.

571
01:01:02,194 --> 01:01:03,223
Hello?

572
01:01:04,613 --> 01:01:07,316
- Sorry.
- "Oh, Donna"

573
01:01:08,075 --> 01:01:10,112
- "Oh, Donna"
- That's it.

574
01:01:10,494 --> 01:01:11,571
That's your song.

575
01:01:11,662 --> 01:01:13,284
Thought you'd like to hear it.

576
01:01:13,455 --> 01:01:14,733
It's beautiful.

577
01:01:15,248 --> 01:01:16,326
Thank you.

578
01:01:16,917 --> 01:01:18,243
- 'Bye.
- Yeah.

579
01:01:22,715 --> 01:01:25,204
Carnal, I think I know
what your problem is.

580
01:01:25,426 --> 01:01:27,631
And it's time we did something about it.

581
01:01:27,845 --> 01:01:29,386
Come on, let's go.

582
01:01:29,681 --> 01:01:30,924
Where to?

583
01:01:31,224 --> 01:01:34,342
Let's just go.
I should have done this a long time ago.

584
01:01:34,602 --> 01:01:36,094
Come on, hop on.

585
01:01:37,648 --> 01:01:40,563
- Done what?
- Gotten you some tail, man.

586
01:01:56,876 --> 01:01:58,417
Come on, Ritchie with a "t."

587
01:01:58,503 --> 01:02:02,036
I'm going to show you the best part of TJ.

588
01:02:04,802 --> 01:02:06,627
Ritchie, come here. Check it out.

589
01:02:06,721 --> 01:02:10,799
Don't worry. It smells like fish,
but it'll taste like chicken.

590
01:02:12,059 --> 01:02:13,931
You alright, man!

591
01:02:15,813 --> 01:02:18,931
This is your manager's job,
getting you some tail.

592
01:02:19,942 --> 01:02:22,265
He looks at you,
I bet he sees a meal ticket.

593
01:02:22,570 --> 01:02:24,110
Come on, change the record.

594
01:02:25,449 --> 01:02:27,605
Look, man: "Ritchie Valens."

595
01:02:29,327 --> 01:02:32,777
With a name like that, nobody's
even going to suspect you're Mexican.

596
01:02:34,332 --> 01:02:36,537
I think it's an insult to Steve's memory.

597
01:02:37,670 --> 01:02:41,203
Steve was so gung-ho American,
he'd be proud of anything I do. Lay off.

598
01:02:41,299 --> 01:02:43,040
It's my name.

599
01:02:44,218 --> 01:02:46,043
Yeah, it's your name, man.

600
01:03:05,492 --> 01:03:08,194
- What did she say?
- She likes your big...

601
01:03:11,039 --> 01:03:13,742
- What do you think?
- It looks like a high school prom.

602
01:03:13,833 --> 01:03:16,120
Only this prom puts out.

603
01:03:49,247 --> 01:03:51,403
Look at those bongos.

604
01:03:51,916 --> 01:03:52,863
Get in there.

605
01:03:54,293 --> 01:03:55,869
I can see fine.

606
01:03:57,213 --> 01:03:58,374
Pick one you like.

607
01:03:58,965 --> 01:04:01,750
They'll like you. It's guaranteed.

608
01:04:08,851 --> 01:04:12,182
I don't know. It's really hard to choose.

609
01:04:12,604 --> 01:04:15,354
Shit, take two, man. It's on me.

610
01:04:24,783 --> 01:04:26,275
La Bamba!

611
01:04:26,536 --> 01:04:28,491
Ritchie, come here.

612
01:04:28,997 --> 01:04:31,320
I brought you here to get laid.

613
01:04:31,416 --> 01:04:32,659
Later.

614
01:05:29,269 --> 01:05:30,927
I'm coming.

615
01:05:42,867 --> 01:05:44,905
Connie, I need your help.

616
01:05:44,994 --> 01:05:48,990
It's the baby.
Where is Bob, for God's sake?

617
01:05:53,212 --> 01:05:56,495
I'm gonna get Ritchie, okay?

618
01:05:56,632 --> 01:05:58,124
It's gonna be okay.

619
01:07:02,744 --> 01:07:04,651
Yo no speak-o espanol.

620
01:07:20,137 --> 01:07:23,302
What's the idea, Bob,
leaving me alone with this old man?

621
01:07:24,475 --> 01:07:27,011
I had some business to take care of in TJ.

622
01:07:27,311 --> 01:07:29,634
Besides, you were sleeping it off, stud.

623
01:07:30,065 --> 01:07:31,438
Was I that drunk last night?

624
01:07:31,524 --> 01:07:34,476
You were screwed, blewed, and tattooed!
Look at that.

625
01:07:34,569 --> 01:07:36,725
Well, at least tattooed anyway.

626
01:07:40,701 --> 01:07:42,858
The old man wants us to eat breakfast.

627
01:07:54,049 --> 01:07:56,039
I never had snake before.

628
01:07:59,179 --> 01:08:00,671
It's not bad.

629
01:08:09,357 --> 01:08:10,683
What's he saying?

630
01:08:11,776 --> 01:08:13,932
He says, "Life is a snake.

631
01:08:14,862 --> 01:08:18,194
"A snake crawling out of its
own dead skin.

632
01:08:19,158 --> 01:08:20,532
"Like a dream."

633
01:08:23,871 --> 01:08:26,195
He's a curandero, a healer...

634
01:08:26,874 --> 01:08:30,704
...and a wise man.
He's sort of my spiritual father.

635
01:08:32,256 --> 01:08:34,377
I've been coming to him for years.

636
01:08:39,429 --> 01:08:41,005
He's giving you that.

637
01:08:44,811 --> 01:08:47,679
"To live is to sleep."

638
01:08:50,817 --> 01:08:51,977
"To die...

639
01:08:52,235 --> 01:08:53,727
"... is to awaken."

640
01:08:56,907 --> 01:08:58,898
I told him about your nightmares.

641
01:09:00,327 --> 01:09:03,825
That talisman will help,
if you believe in it.

642
01:09:11,756 --> 01:09:13,414
What is all this?

643
01:09:27,480 --> 01:09:31,642
Mexico! You went to Tijuana
without telling anybody?

644
01:09:32,195 --> 01:09:34,399
A fine pair of sinvergüenzas!

645
01:09:35,865 --> 01:09:38,864
I'd expect this from Bob
but not you, Ritchie.

646
01:09:40,578 --> 01:09:43,992
What did you do, drink the night away?

647
01:09:44,082 --> 01:09:46,785
Okay, it was my fault. I took him there.

648
01:09:46,919 --> 01:09:50,167
- How's Rosie?
- She's in the hospital, where else?

649
01:09:51,965 --> 01:09:55,249
She was all alone.
I had to drive her to the hospital myself!

650
01:09:55,470 --> 01:09:57,626
She was in labour all day with the baby.

651
01:09:57,722 --> 01:10:01,089
Do you hear me?
Do you care about anything?

652
01:10:02,018 --> 01:10:04,424
Go ahead! Go play with your bike!

653
01:10:10,486 --> 01:10:12,311
Did Rosie have a boy or a girl?

654
01:10:12,404 --> 01:10:15,606
She had a girl. We named her Brenda.

655
01:10:17,743 --> 01:10:19,069
What's this?

656
01:10:20,371 --> 01:10:21,448
Bob.

657
01:11:43,292 --> 01:11:45,959
That's beautiful, Ritchie. That's the one.

658
01:11:46,546 --> 01:11:50,079
Coming up in September,
we have the Pacific Ocean Park...

659
01:11:50,675 --> 01:11:53,211
...followed by
the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium.

660
01:11:53,303 --> 01:11:54,629
High Tone lunch, huh?

661
01:11:55,555 --> 01:11:57,380
Followed by...

662
01:11:58,351 --> 01:11:59,926
Are you listening?

663
01:12:00,603 --> 01:12:03,851
...a week's booking in San Francisco.
Now, Ritchie...

664
01:12:03,939 --> 01:12:05,348
...we fly up for that one.

665
01:12:06,901 --> 01:12:08,690
Fly? No, I'd rather drive.

666
01:12:08,779 --> 01:12:11,612
Ritchie, please. It's a long drive.

667
01:12:11,698 --> 01:12:16,026
I don't care. I never fly, I told you.
I have my reasons.

668
01:12:16,787 --> 01:12:19,454
All right, I'll see what I can do.

669
01:12:21,792 --> 01:12:24,494
We still need another single
to go along with Donna.

670
01:12:24,586 --> 01:12:26,162
How about Suzie?

671
01:12:27,589 --> 01:12:28,832
How about La Bamba?

672
01:12:29,049 --> 01:12:32,582
- La Bamba? It's not rock 'n' roll.
- It is the way I play it.

673
01:12:32,844 --> 01:12:35,416
It's a folk song.
I don't want to offend anybody.

674
01:12:35,598 --> 01:12:38,431
- Besides, it's in Spanish.
- That's how I want to sing it.

675
01:12:38,518 --> 01:12:41,137
Rock 'n' roll in Spanish.
You gotta be crazy.

676
01:12:41,396 --> 01:12:43,885
- It'll work. Just let me have a crack at it.
- No.

677
01:12:44,107 --> 01:12:47,438
Even assuming that the other side
of Donna was a throwaway...

678
01:12:47,694 --> 01:12:52,189
...how are you going to handle the lyrics?
You say yourself you don't speak Spanish.

679
01:12:52,282 --> 01:12:55,116
If Nat King Cole can sing in Spanish,
so can I, right?

680
01:12:55,619 --> 01:12:58,701
Come on, Bob-O. What do you say?

681
01:13:00,875 --> 01:13:02,202
Bob-O?

682
01:13:06,464 --> 01:13:08,289
Okay, now smile!

683
01:14:10,199 --> 01:14:11,774
It drives like a dream!

684
01:14:11,868 --> 01:14:13,989
Beats the hell out of taking a train.

685
01:14:14,078 --> 01:14:15,950
How much did this baby cost?

686
01:14:16,456 --> 01:14:18,114
You don't want to know.

687
01:14:19,751 --> 01:14:22,240
But if all goes well in Philadelphia...

688
01:14:23,046 --> 01:14:24,704
...the car is yours.

689
01:14:24,797 --> 01:14:25,827
Philly?

690
01:14:27,425 --> 01:14:29,167
We're going to Philadelphia?

691
01:14:29,302 --> 01:14:30,960
American Bandstand.

692
01:14:33,806 --> 01:14:36,474
We fly up for that. Okay?

693
01:14:42,650 --> 01:14:44,474
Come on, let's go.

694
01:14:51,243 --> 01:14:54,692
- I thought you said you didn't like to fly.
- I don't.

695
01:14:54,788 --> 01:14:57,075
But I love driving fast.

696
01:14:57,249 --> 01:15:00,082
Let me in, damn it!
I want to see my daughter!

697
01:15:00,586 --> 01:15:04,036
I'm her father! I'm her father, goddamn it.

698
01:15:04,131 --> 01:15:05,754
You're a goddamn drunk!

699
01:15:05,883 --> 01:15:07,625
Bob, stop it.

700
01:15:07,927 --> 01:15:11,424
Get back. Have you gone crazy on me?

701
01:15:11,974 --> 01:15:14,130
I have finally had it.

702
01:15:14,685 --> 01:15:17,719
- I want to see my daughter.
- Not in your condition.

703
01:15:17,813 --> 01:15:21,180
I went pendeja for the motorcycle,
but no more.

704
01:15:21,275 --> 01:15:23,514
- I want my wife.
- You don't want a wife.

705
01:15:23,652 --> 01:15:26,402
He wants a love slave.
One that he can kick around.

706
01:15:26,488 --> 01:15:29,238
Sober up and you can see her tomorrow.

707
01:15:29,324 --> 01:15:31,860
Now go downstairs and pass out.

708
01:15:32,661 --> 01:15:36,028
I've got enough to worry about
with Ritchie.

709
01:15:38,626 --> 01:15:41,874
You always worry more about Ritchie.

710
01:15:42,005 --> 01:15:44,957
What about me?

711
01:15:45,675 --> 01:15:48,709
I know you don't give
a goddamn about me.

712
01:15:49,263 --> 01:15:52,879
You had me turned in!
You had me locked up!

713
01:15:53,434 --> 01:15:56,682
Do you think I could ever
forgive you for that?

714
01:16:00,692 --> 01:16:02,683
You can't keep me from seeing my kid.

715
01:16:02,986 --> 01:16:06,602
This is my house. I'll kick you all out.

716
01:16:16,208 --> 01:16:17,405
You see anything?

717
01:16:18,502 --> 01:16:22,628
I just saw the Grand Canyon.
It's a long way down there, boy.

718
01:16:26,594 --> 01:16:27,920
You okay?

719
01:16:35,144 --> 01:16:36,553
You know what, Bob-O?

720
01:16:37,189 --> 01:16:40,971
I've always believed
I was going to die in a plane crash.

721
01:16:41,068 --> 01:16:44,517
That's a hell of a thing to say
while we're still in the air.

722
01:16:46,698 --> 01:16:50,824
It's do or die, man.
American Bandstand, Philadelphia, PA.

723
01:16:50,953 --> 01:16:53,110
Drink this. It's vodka.

724
01:16:54,749 --> 01:16:55,910
Straight.

725
01:16:57,752 --> 01:17:00,870
And away we go.
You are all comfortably seated, I presume.

726
01:17:01,465 --> 01:17:02,459
Excellent.

727
01:17:02,591 --> 01:17:05,424
Let's greet a young man
who's making his debut...

728
01:17:05,594 --> 01:17:08,842
...here on American Bandstand.
From Del-Fi Records in Los Angeles.

729
01:17:08,931 --> 01:17:11,301
Ladies and gentleman,
here's Ritchie Valens.

730
01:17:54,438 --> 01:17:56,013
What do you want?

731
01:17:57,023 --> 01:17:58,432
I got money.

732
01:17:58,525 --> 01:18:00,183
I don't want your money.

733
01:18:00,610 --> 01:18:02,103
What the hell?

734
01:18:02,280 --> 01:18:06,110
- I was watching that! Put that back on.
- You've had enough for one afternoon.

735
01:18:06,451 --> 01:18:09,284
Put it back on! That dude's my brother!

736
01:18:09,370 --> 01:18:12,037
Yeah, and I'm your Irish uncle, too.
Leave it off.

737
01:18:44,240 --> 01:18:46,729
What'd you think of Ritchie
on American Bandstand?

738
01:18:46,826 --> 01:18:50,656
- I think it's so keen that he was on there.
- I can't believe he sang Donna.

739
01:18:50,747 --> 01:18:52,654
You are so lucky.

740
01:18:52,750 --> 01:18:54,906
And you?
Who are you taking to the dance?

741
01:18:55,002 --> 01:18:58,583
- Nobody.
- Oh, come...

742
01:19:05,931 --> 01:19:08,135
- Hi, kitten.
- Hi.

743
01:19:09,226 --> 01:19:11,050
So, where's your car?

744
01:19:11,144 --> 01:19:14,345
It was a loaner. My dad sold it.

745
01:19:14,648 --> 01:19:15,725
Hop in.

746
01:19:19,362 --> 01:19:21,483
- Hi, Suzy.
- Hi, Ritchie.

747
01:19:25,618 --> 01:19:28,189
Hi, can I have your photograph?
I mean, autograph?

748
01:19:28,287 --> 01:19:30,990
- Can I get one, too?
- Can I get one?

749
01:19:33,417 --> 01:19:34,826
I'll do you one better...

750
01:19:34,919 --> 01:19:36,791
...I'll get you Donna's autograph, too.

751
01:19:40,759 --> 01:19:42,501
Just like old times?

752
01:19:43,053 --> 01:19:44,629
I really missed you.

753
01:19:45,848 --> 01:19:47,506
I've missed you, too.

754
01:19:53,314 --> 01:19:54,807
So, how's school?

755
01:19:55,358 --> 01:19:59,140
Not the same without you.
When are you coming back?

756
01:19:59,946 --> 01:20:01,652
My school days are over, kitten.

757
01:20:01,906 --> 01:20:04,063
Bob-O's got me booked all winter and fall.

758
01:20:04,285 --> 01:20:05,907
I'll be in the Big Apple.

759
01:20:08,622 --> 01:20:10,827
I'm really happy for you, Ritchie.

760
01:20:11,667 --> 01:20:14,951
All your success and everything,
you really deserve it.

761
01:20:16,381 --> 01:20:17,707
I'm flying.

762
01:20:19,593 --> 01:20:21,251
I'm really flying.

763
01:20:51,709 --> 01:20:53,332
It's yours, Mom.

764
01:20:53,587 --> 01:20:55,743
- It's mine?
- Yes.

765
01:21:05,433 --> 01:21:07,091
Come on.

766
01:21:08,978 --> 01:21:12,594
- Is this where we're going to live?
- It's like a castle.

767
01:21:14,025 --> 01:21:15,268
This is home.

768
01:21:18,197 --> 01:21:19,855
That's the garage.

769
01:21:20,699 --> 01:21:23,105
Over there is the guest house.

770
01:21:25,162 --> 01:21:26,738
Come on, slow poke.

771
01:21:26,830 --> 01:21:29,284
Look at this. Isn't it nice?

772
01:21:30,834 --> 01:21:34,913
Right here is where I think
we'll put the swimming pool.

773
01:21:35,047 --> 01:21:37,916
No, Ritchie, the girls can't swim.
I don't want no pool.

774
01:21:44,391 --> 01:21:46,298
We'll make it a dishwasher, right?

775
01:21:46,393 --> 01:21:49,060
No problem. But after we fly back east.

776
01:21:49,604 --> 01:21:52,805
- Back again?
- 10 day tour, 13 cities.

777
01:21:53,191 --> 01:21:56,024
Including a spot on national television.

778
01:21:56,529 --> 01:21:59,314
So, congratulations, Mrs. Valens.

779
01:21:59,865 --> 01:22:02,152
Here are the keys to your new home.

780
01:22:02,451 --> 01:22:05,949
Ritchie, this is better
than Queen for a Day.

781
01:22:06,581 --> 01:22:08,406
I love you, Mom.

782
01:22:08,959 --> 01:22:10,665
You're the best.

783
01:22:47,374 --> 01:22:49,614
What's the matter? Nervous?

784
01:22:49,710 --> 01:22:52,033
I'm just a kid from Pacoima.

785
01:23:41,890 --> 01:23:43,964
You're gonna knock 'em dead.

786
01:23:44,060 --> 01:23:46,430
Eddie Cochran, a wonderful human being!

787
01:23:46,521 --> 01:23:51,394
And now for you rock cats, another
wonderful human being, Mr. Jackie Wilson!

788
01:23:55,571 --> 01:23:58,736
Eddie, you were great, man. Really great.

789
01:23:59,952 --> 01:24:02,275
It's that live New York audience.

790
01:24:02,412 --> 01:24:03,157
Rock 'n' roll is an addiction.

791
01:24:25,604 --> 01:24:27,429
Here you are, Ritchie.

792
01:24:27,523 --> 01:24:29,679
Where else? The kid's got taste.

793
01:24:29,900 --> 01:24:32,436
I need you, Valens.
One of the Belmonts got sick.

794
01:24:32,570 --> 01:24:35,059
Probably malnutrition
from this three-ring circus.

795
01:24:35,156 --> 01:24:37,063
- Just kidding.
- I got to move you up.

796
01:24:37,158 --> 01:24:41,236
You're going on after Jackie Wilson.
In five minutes. You can do it.

797
01:24:41,328 --> 01:24:42,358
Good luck.

798
01:24:42,538 --> 01:24:44,114
They're waiting for you.

799
01:24:44,583 --> 01:24:45,743
- Let's go!
- Get rocking!

800
01:26:04,668 --> 01:26:08,746
If they love you, they'll want to kill you.
If they don't, same difference.

801
01:26:13,719 --> 01:26:15,710
And here he is...

802
01:26:16,055 --> 01:26:20,300
...America's newest rock 'n'
roll sensation...

803
01:26:20,685 --> 01:26:24,680
...the California Kid, Ritchie Valens.

804
01:26:38,912 --> 01:26:40,819
This is a bit of a rattlesnake.

805
01:29:02,274 --> 01:29:03,932
No, I mean it Bob-O...

806
01:29:12,659 --> 01:29:14,400
Merry Christmas, High Tone.

807
01:29:15,580 --> 01:29:17,072
I've missed you.

808
01:29:21,335 --> 01:29:23,824
Okay, go ahead and open the presents.

809
01:29:26,091 --> 01:29:28,165
Just the little kids.

810
01:29:37,936 --> 01:29:40,176
- Look at all this food.
- Wonderful.

811
01:29:40,439 --> 01:29:43,272
- Hungry?
- I could eat a horse.

812
01:29:49,365 --> 01:29:50,692
Seven and seven?

813
01:29:52,619 --> 01:29:53,696
What about you?

814
01:29:53,870 --> 01:29:55,695
I'm on the wagon, man.

815
01:29:56,414 --> 01:29:57,906
The garbage wagon.

816
01:29:58,875 --> 01:30:00,949
$5 a week and all you can eat.

817
01:30:01,044 --> 01:30:03,533
With all this food, I'm staying.

818
01:30:08,469 --> 01:30:10,459
Bobby, where's Mom's new dress?

819
01:30:11,222 --> 01:30:14,423
- What new dress?
- The one I asked you to buy her.

820
01:30:15,685 --> 01:30:18,933
You're the asshole with all the money.
Buy it yourself.

821
01:30:25,153 --> 01:30:28,485
Don't let him upset you.
He's been on the wagon for a month.

822
01:30:28,658 --> 01:30:31,989
He's meaner when he's drunk.
Come on, help yourself.

823
01:30:33,412 --> 01:30:36,447
Let's go into the living room.
I got a present for Ritchie.

824
01:30:53,350 --> 01:30:56,017
I just got mauled by King Kong!

825
01:30:56,687 --> 01:30:58,511
Everybody, let's party!

826
01:30:58,647 --> 01:31:01,183
This is a celebration. My Ritchie is home!

827
01:31:19,962 --> 01:31:21,039
You okay, Bob?

828
01:31:22,923 --> 01:31:24,415
Sure, I'm okay.

829
01:31:25,301 --> 01:31:26,959
Mom was asking for you.

830
01:31:27,929 --> 01:31:29,421
She afraid I'm drunk?

831
01:31:29,514 --> 01:31:32,881
I've had one sip of beer,
and it tastes like piss to me. Want it?

832
01:31:54,040 --> 01:31:55,698
What's your problem, man?

833
01:31:59,337 --> 01:32:00,912
Old Steve.

834
01:32:02,131 --> 01:32:05,628
He always said you'd be somebody.
And I bought it, too.

835
01:32:06,803 --> 01:32:10,301
If that's the way Steve wanted it,
that's the way it was gonna be.

836
01:32:11,224 --> 01:32:14,389
Even after he told me he wasn't my dad.

837
01:32:16,397 --> 01:32:18,020
Once I knew the full score...

838
01:32:18,107 --> 01:32:22,483
...I understood why he always
treated you a little bit better than me.

839
01:32:23,780 --> 01:32:27,396
I said, "I'll just hang around
and take the leftovers."

840
01:32:28,118 --> 01:32:30,073
Like a dog.

841
01:32:30,287 --> 01:32:32,444
That's how much I loved Steve.

842
01:32:32,748 --> 01:32:34,157
Like a goddamn dog!

843
01:32:34,375 --> 01:32:36,745
Look, we don't have to talk
about this now.

844
01:32:37,086 --> 01:32:40,287
Shit! I want to talk about it now
and you'll listen!

845
01:32:40,464 --> 01:32:42,289
This is a crock of shit.

846
01:32:42,424 --> 01:32:46,752
He set you up to conquer the world,
and he didn't leave me shit!

847
01:32:46,887 --> 01:32:49,458
Nobody told you
to throw your life away, man.

848
01:32:49,556 --> 01:32:52,721
I'm only sorry I didn't say anything
about your drinking.

849
01:32:52,811 --> 01:32:54,184
You did it to yourself.

850
01:32:54,270 --> 01:32:57,969
You come in here
like you own the goddamn country.

851
01:32:58,191 --> 01:33:02,021
To me, you'll always be the little
asshole who followed me around.

852
01:33:02,237 --> 01:33:04,062
Yeah, I followed you around.

853
01:33:04,322 --> 01:33:07,321
I followed you around
'cause I thought you were somebody.

854
01:33:07,576 --> 01:33:08,654
Then.

855
01:33:08,911 --> 01:33:10,902
Don't you walk out on me!

856
01:33:16,460 --> 01:33:18,617
Don't you talk to me like this!

857
01:33:22,843 --> 01:33:25,047
You wanted her. I'm not Rosie, asshole.

858
01:33:26,179 --> 01:33:28,170
You asked for it!

859
01:33:28,473 --> 01:33:30,927
I'll kill you!

860
01:33:55,085 --> 01:33:57,491
He couldn't have meant it. He's just hurt.

861
01:33:58,505 --> 01:34:01,173
Your success can't be easy for him.

862
01:34:03,218 --> 01:34:04,379
I love you, Donna.

863
01:34:04,553 --> 01:34:06,294
I'll always love you.

864
01:34:08,099 --> 01:34:10,090
You sound so serious.

865
01:34:11,561 --> 01:34:12,555
I am.

866
01:34:15,857 --> 01:34:18,180
I'm still going to marry you
one of these days.

867
01:34:19,987 --> 01:34:21,360
Will you wait for me?

868
01:34:21,530 --> 01:34:23,188
For how long? Forever?

869
01:34:27,953 --> 01:34:29,494
No, until I'm 25.

870
01:34:29,580 --> 01:34:33,196
Then I'll have a big glass cabinet
to keep all my gold records in.

871
01:34:39,633 --> 01:34:41,208
I love you.

872
01:34:45,013 --> 01:34:49,424
I'm never going to let anyone get in
the way of my feelings for you, ever again.

873
01:34:53,939 --> 01:34:55,894
- Come here.
- What?

874
01:35:02,448 --> 01:35:03,691
Come here.

875
01:35:33,399 --> 01:35:37,015
The whole heating system in the bus
broke down. The whole bus is shot.

876
01:35:37,152 --> 01:35:39,309
You didn't say the tour
would be like this.

877
01:35:39,405 --> 01:35:40,980
The hell with it, come home.

878
01:35:41,073 --> 01:35:43,989
- You mean quit?
- No. You're sick.

879
01:35:44,285 --> 01:35:47,319
I'm really sorry.

880
01:35:48,289 --> 01:35:51,620
No, I'll stick it out.
But see what you can do about the bus.

881
01:35:52,918 --> 01:35:56,083
Look, take care of yourself,
and I'll call you tomorrow.

882
01:36:00,427 --> 01:36:02,085
Hello, baby.

883
01:36:03,680 --> 01:36:05,172
How you feeling?

884
01:36:05,390 --> 01:36:08,804
Listen, Holly's lining up a plane
to fly us to Fargo tonight.

885
01:36:09,812 --> 01:36:12,479
- All of us?
- Just the headliners.

886
01:36:12,815 --> 01:36:15,814
You better get with it,
or you'll be out in the cold.

887
01:36:15,943 --> 01:36:20,354
You catching my snow drift, man?
The word is out, all right?

888
01:36:57,863 --> 01:36:58,892
Hello.

889
01:36:58,989 --> 01:37:00,018
Hello, Bob.

890
01:37:01,200 --> 01:37:02,443
It's me, Ritchie.

891
01:37:05,579 --> 01:37:07,784
- What's wrong?
- What do you mean?

892
01:37:08,375 --> 01:37:10,531
I can barely hear you. You sound funny.

893
01:37:11,086 --> 01:37:12,744
I got a cold.

894
01:37:13,672 --> 01:37:14,950
Is Mom there?

895
01:37:15,048 --> 01:37:17,584
No, no one is here.
They all went to church.

896
01:37:17,842 --> 01:37:19,584
Just me and my daughter here.

897
01:37:20,053 --> 01:37:23,586
I was going to go, but you know how it is.

898
01:37:28,562 --> 01:37:30,304
Sure wish I was there.

899
01:37:30,940 --> 01:37:33,855
But you can't have your cake
and eat it, too.

900
01:37:35,737 --> 01:37:36,767
Listen, Bob.

901
01:37:39,116 --> 01:37:41,783
Why don't you fly to Chicago
and meet me?

902
01:37:42,035 --> 01:37:45,698
We can finish the tour together.
I need some family around me.

903
01:37:48,542 --> 01:37:50,449
Sure you want me around?

904
01:37:52,254 --> 01:37:55,206
After all that happened and
the shit I said?

905
01:37:55,424 --> 01:37:57,580
Those were your real feelings.

906
01:37:58,761 --> 01:38:00,716
We're still brothers, aren't we?

907
01:38:08,896 --> 01:38:10,057
You still there?

908
01:38:12,276 --> 01:38:14,599
Yeah, cabron, I'm still here.

909
01:38:15,988 --> 01:38:17,646
And I'm still your brother.

910
01:38:20,492 --> 01:38:21,522
All right, man.

911
01:38:23,079 --> 01:38:24,571
I'll see you in Chicago.

912
01:38:26,875 --> 01:38:28,367
Later, alligator.

913
01:38:46,687 --> 01:38:48,678
Look what just rolled in.

914
01:38:51,734 --> 01:38:52,728
It's cold.

915
01:38:53,903 --> 01:38:55,644
Ritchie, here's the situation.

916
01:38:56,197 --> 01:38:57,938
I heard how you feel about flying.

917
01:38:58,283 --> 01:39:00,523
I didn't think you'd be interested.

918
01:39:00,827 --> 01:39:04,241
It's between Tommy and you.
I'll toss this coin.

919
01:39:04,664 --> 01:39:09,324
Whoever wins will ride in this plane
and will sleep in a warm bed tonight.

920
01:39:09,544 --> 01:39:13,125
Whoever loses
will freeze his ass off on the bus.

921
01:39:15,593 --> 01:39:16,754
Heads!

922
01:39:18,971 --> 01:39:20,132
Heads it is.

923
01:39:20,389 --> 01:39:22,546
Alright. Ritchie, let's fly!

924
01:39:22,643 --> 01:39:26,306
Allsup, back on the bus. Have a good ride.
We'll see you in North Dakota.

925
01:39:26,396 --> 01:39:27,390
Sorry, Tommy.

926
01:39:27,898 --> 01:39:30,352
The first coin toss I ever won.

927
01:39:30,776 --> 01:39:32,434
Come on, let's go.

928
01:39:35,657 --> 01:39:38,228
Jesus. You look like the Three Stooges.

929
01:39:51,548 --> 01:39:54,119
Ritchie, relax. Everything's cool.

930
01:39:56,094 --> 01:39:58,761
The sky belongs to the stars, right?

931
01:40:40,809 --> 01:40:43,559
We interrupt this program
to bring you this bulletin.

932
01:40:44,021 --> 01:40:47,719
Four persons, three identified as
nationally famous rock 'n' roll singers...

933
01:40:48,192 --> 01:40:52,851
...died early today in a plane crash,
five miles north of Clear Lake, Iowa.

934
01:40:52,988 --> 01:40:55,311
Buddy Holly, 22, of Lubbock, Texas.

935
01:40:55,532 --> 01:40:58,615
Ritchie Valens, 17,
of Los Angeles, California.

936
01:40:59,036 --> 01:41:03,530
And J.P. Richardson, 29, of Louisiana,
known professionally as The Big Bopper.

937
01:41:04,834 --> 01:41:07,157
Did you hear? Did you hear...

938
01:41:07,253 --> 01:41:09,576
...what the radio said about Ritchie?

939
01:41:10,048 --> 01:41:11,670
Are you sure he said Ritchie?

940
01:41:12,885 --> 01:41:15,884
Oh, my God! What about Connie?

941
01:41:25,440 --> 01:41:27,098
What is it? What's the matter?

942
01:41:27,943 --> 01:41:29,850
You'd better sit down, Donna.

943
01:41:33,490 --> 01:41:35,694
We understand Holly chartered the plane...

944
01:41:35,784 --> 01:41:39,281
...because the tour bus
had broken down several times...

945
01:41:39,830 --> 01:41:41,655
...and had no heating system.

946
01:41:47,672 --> 01:41:50,754
The youngest of the three stars
killed in the crash was Valens.

947
01:41:51,175 --> 01:41:54,257
At 17, this youngster
from Pacoima, California...

948
01:41:54,345 --> 01:41:57,546
...won a place at the top of the charts
with his hits, Donna...

949
01:41:57,640 --> 01:42:00,046
...La Bamba and Come On, Let's Go.

950
01:42:00,769 --> 01:42:02,510
Valens was still in high school...

951
01:42:02,604 --> 01:42:04,761
...when he was signed to the Del-Fi label.

952
01:42:05,399 --> 01:42:07,436
And just a brief eight months later...

953
01:42:08,277 --> 01:42:09,817
...Ritchie Valens is gone.

954
01:42:14,325 --> 01:42:15,983
Not Ritchie.

955
01:42:17,287 --> 01:42:18,945
Not my Ritchie!

956
01:43:14,389 --> 01:43:16,510
Here in the San Fernando Valley...

957
01:43:16,933 --> 01:43:19,422
...and perhaps,
throughout the entire nation...

958
01:43:19,978 --> 01:43:22,218
...the name of Ritchie Valens...
