1
00:01:45,422 --> 00:01:46,298
Richie...

2
00:01:46,422 --> 00:01:47,901
...time to get up.

3
00:02:12,222 --> 00:02:15,498
The harder you work, the more you're paid.
What's holding you up?

4
00:03:53,622 --> 00:03:56,011
Come on, we're wasting money.

5
00:04:03,662 --> 00:04:06,017
"Don't you touch me," I says.

6
00:04:06,102 --> 00:04:08,855
"I'm tired of being hit by men, already."

7
00:04:09,022 --> 00:04:10,137
So, I punched him.

8
00:04:10,222 --> 00:04:13,817
His feet went up, and when he hit
the floor, I thought he was dead.

9
00:04:13,902 --> 00:04:17,815
I says to him, "Sweetheart,
if you don't like it, you can lam it."

10
00:04:18,582 --> 00:04:19,776
So he lammed it.

11
00:04:35,422 --> 00:04:36,298
Richie?

12
00:04:39,102 --> 00:04:39,818
Bob?

13
00:04:45,502 --> 00:04:47,333
Richie, you taking a break already?

14
00:04:48,902 --> 00:04:49,891
So, Mr. Big Shot...

15
00:04:50,822 --> 00:04:52,141
...you finally showed up.

16
00:04:52,222 --> 00:04:54,611
I'm lucky I even found this place.

17
00:04:56,422 --> 00:04:57,411
Rosie...

18
00:04:58,022 --> 00:04:59,421
...this is my brother, Bob.

19
00:05:01,582 --> 00:05:03,732
Why did you wait a year to join us?

20
00:05:12,422 --> 00:05:14,652
Bob, watch it! My guitar, man.

21
00:05:15,782 --> 00:05:19,570
Sorry, I didn't know that piece of junk
was so important to you.

22
00:05:20,302 --> 00:05:22,099
I even sleep with it.

23
00:05:22,182 --> 00:05:23,456
It's no hole.

24
00:05:24,182 --> 00:05:25,171
Come on.

25
00:05:27,382 --> 00:05:28,861
Jersey Joe.

26
00:05:32,022 --> 00:05:33,296
Joe Louis.

27
00:05:33,862 --> 00:05:35,341
Rocky Marciano.

28
00:05:37,142 --> 00:05:39,610
You okay? Can you move it?

29
00:05:40,782 --> 00:05:41,771
You all right?

30
00:05:42,462 --> 00:05:43,815
Can you move it?

31
00:05:46,942 --> 00:05:48,421
You've grown, cabron.

32
00:05:49,142 --> 00:05:51,576
You're a big sucker for 16.

33
00:05:51,982 --> 00:05:54,052
- What's the matter, you miss me?
- No.

34
00:05:54,182 --> 00:05:55,092
You should have.

35
00:05:57,742 --> 00:05:59,573
What was it like inside?

36
00:05:59,822 --> 00:06:01,540
The joint is the joint.

37
00:06:02,182 --> 00:06:04,457
Why didn't you come home
after you got out?

38
00:06:04,582 --> 00:06:07,050
We haven't had a home since Steve died.

39
00:06:07,582 --> 00:06:09,573
Don't be such a dreamer, man.

40
00:06:10,542 --> 00:06:12,612
My dreams are pure rock 'n' roll.

41
00:06:26,582 --> 00:06:29,654
- Go wash your hands for dinner.
- Okay, mama.

42
00:06:49,982 --> 00:06:53,179
You little pigs.
I'm going to tell your mothers on you.

43
00:06:53,262 --> 00:06:54,490
Wait and see!

44
00:06:55,542 --> 00:06:56,941
You tell 'em, Rosie!

45
00:07:03,582 --> 00:07:05,971
Mom, what in hell are you doing here?

46
00:07:06,502 --> 00:07:07,537
Working.

47
00:07:07,622 --> 00:07:09,578
I came to take you out of this dump.

48
00:07:09,702 --> 00:07:11,420
Not before we make some money.

49
00:07:21,142 --> 00:07:22,461
I mean honest money.

50
00:07:23,662 --> 00:07:26,859
I've been working.
Why can't you believe for once?

51
00:07:29,422 --> 00:07:31,492
Mom, what's going on?

52
00:07:36,262 --> 00:07:38,981
We're getting out
of this shit hole tomorrow.

53
00:07:44,342 --> 00:07:45,331
Okay.

54
00:08:00,182 --> 00:08:01,171
Oh, God.

55
00:08:06,142 --> 00:08:07,131
Oh, please.

56
00:08:14,382 --> 00:08:15,940
Tell me you love me.

57
00:08:48,382 --> 00:08:50,771
Why didn't you tell me
this was your first time?

58
00:08:53,262 --> 00:08:54,411
You didn't ask.

59
00:09:02,142 --> 00:09:03,370
You coming, Richie?

60
00:09:03,462 --> 00:09:05,054
No, I'll wait up a while.

61
00:09:22,222 --> 00:09:24,019
You're really something, you know?

62
00:09:47,462 --> 00:09:48,372
What's up?

63
00:09:56,502 --> 00:09:57,935
I should ask you.

64
00:10:00,382 --> 00:10:02,418
Wait a minute.

65
00:10:04,302 --> 00:10:05,621
Did I horn in on you?

66
00:10:05,702 --> 00:10:06,737
Just forget it.

67
00:10:08,822 --> 00:10:10,414
I thought you'd changed.

68
00:10:13,102 --> 00:10:14,376
Come on!

69
00:10:17,142 --> 00:10:18,860
Come stay with us sometime.

70
00:10:18,942 --> 00:10:22,173
Bob got us a house in Pacoima.
We could visit L.A.

71
00:10:22,662 --> 00:10:24,653
You'll be late for work.

72
00:10:25,142 --> 00:10:26,541
My dad wouldn't like it.

73
00:10:26,782 --> 00:10:28,010
Come on, let's go.

74
00:10:28,102 --> 00:10:29,376
I love you.

75
00:10:29,942 --> 00:10:31,216
'Bye, Connie.

76
00:10:32,582 --> 00:10:33,571
Goodbye.

77
00:10:42,342 --> 00:10:43,377
'Bye, Rosie.

78
00:11:07,782 --> 00:11:08,373
Rosa!

79
00:11:33,422 --> 00:11:36,414
Connie, don't let the baby fall
off the chair.

80
00:11:45,422 --> 00:11:47,299
Breakfast is ready. I'm off to work.

81
00:11:47,382 --> 00:11:49,577
- Don't ditch school today.
- Thanks, mom.

82
00:11:53,182 --> 00:11:56,094
Rosie, the baby's with the girls.
See you tonight.

83
00:12:15,422 --> 00:12:16,411
'Morning, Rosie.

84
00:12:18,102 --> 00:12:19,091
'Morning, girls.

85
00:12:31,502 --> 00:12:33,094
Bob come in last night?

86
00:12:34,982 --> 00:12:37,291
He doesn't spend much time at home,
does he?

87
00:12:39,102 --> 00:12:40,376
You do.

88
00:12:42,022 --> 00:12:43,011
Yeah, well...

89
00:12:44,222 --> 00:12:45,211
...I'm me.

90
00:12:48,622 --> 00:12:49,611
Quiet.

91
00:12:49,782 --> 00:12:51,215
Class is in session.

92
00:13:08,022 --> 00:13:10,138
Take out your history books. Chapter 7.

93
00:13:10,462 --> 00:13:12,054
Who is the blonde?

94
00:13:12,542 --> 00:13:15,261
I don't know. But I think I'm in love.

95
00:13:16,422 --> 00:13:17,491
Forget it.

96
00:13:17,582 --> 00:13:19,812
She's way above your class, High Tone.

97
00:13:20,542 --> 00:13:22,851
Just concentrate on that audition tonight.

98
00:13:37,302 --> 00:13:38,815
- Hi.
- Hi.

99
00:13:41,302 --> 00:13:43,213
They call me High Tone. You?

100
00:13:43,502 --> 00:13:44,378
Donna.

101
00:13:44,462 --> 00:13:46,180
Mind if I walk with you, Donna?

102
00:13:46,782 --> 00:13:47,817
Sure.

103
00:13:49,582 --> 00:13:51,618
I mean, no, I don't mind.

104
00:13:52,302 --> 00:13:54,133
Donna. That's a nice name.

105
00:13:55,422 --> 00:13:57,333
Look, call me Richie.

106
00:13:59,062 --> 00:14:00,495
This is my class.

107
00:14:03,582 --> 00:14:05,015
Where's yours?

108
00:14:06,222 --> 00:14:08,213
In the gym. I have P.E.

109
00:14:12,342 --> 00:14:13,377
You're late.

110
00:14:13,782 --> 00:14:14,771
Yeah.

111
00:14:18,422 --> 00:14:19,172
'Bye...

112
00:14:20,822 --> 00:14:21,811
...Donna.

113
00:14:22,942 --> 00:14:24,694
'Bye, High Tone.

114
00:14:39,902 --> 00:14:40,891
Say, Ed...

115
00:14:42,622 --> 00:14:44,533
...you wanna buy a kilo?

116
00:14:48,782 --> 00:14:50,135
You did it, carnalito!

117
00:14:50,222 --> 00:14:52,292
By the sweat of my balls.

118
00:14:54,422 --> 00:14:55,411
You did it!

119
00:15:28,942 --> 00:15:30,136
All right.

120
00:15:32,302 --> 00:15:33,735
Richie, meet Rudy.

121
00:15:34,262 --> 00:15:36,059
He's leader of the Silhouettes.

122
00:15:39,342 --> 00:15:41,094
Look, Valenzuela...

123
00:15:41,462 --> 00:15:43,657
...Chino tells me you're a hot shot.

124
00:15:45,902 --> 00:15:46,937
What's that?

125
00:15:47,022 --> 00:15:49,536
- My amp.
- Looks like someone threw it away.

126
00:15:51,222 --> 00:15:53,133
Well, it's mine now.

127
00:15:55,702 --> 00:15:57,181
So, don't worry about it.

128
00:16:58,262 --> 00:16:59,661
No lie!

129
00:17:00,022 --> 00:17:04,334
The pendejo was smoking weed.
He was smoking milkweed!

130
00:17:04,942 --> 00:17:06,375
I got him back.

131
00:17:10,942 --> 00:17:13,331
Go on, Rosie, take a hit, man!

132
00:17:13,542 --> 00:17:16,010
Put a little mota in our love life.

133
00:17:18,902 --> 00:17:21,860
Baby, I need some action tonight.

134
00:17:33,422 --> 00:17:34,775
Come on, baby.

135
00:17:34,902 --> 00:17:37,621
Rosie, come here. I was only joking.

136
00:17:43,942 --> 00:17:45,694
Open the door.

137
00:17:46,262 --> 00:17:47,297
Go away.

138
00:17:48,342 --> 00:17:50,412
Know what? Let's get going.

139
00:17:52,262 --> 00:17:53,581
- Go where?
- Home.

140
00:17:53,782 --> 00:17:55,534
Other people sleep, you know.

141
00:17:57,702 --> 00:17:59,340
You don't have to split.

142
00:17:59,422 --> 00:18:00,855
Rosie, we're leaving.

143
00:18:01,062 --> 00:18:05,055
I'm serious. Stick around.
Rosie'll be out in a second.

144
00:18:05,622 --> 00:18:07,374
Rosie, come on out!

145
00:18:07,742 --> 00:18:09,573
Hassle it out with your old lady.

146
00:18:12,102 --> 00:18:13,694
I know what's happening.

147
00:18:17,902 --> 00:18:19,381
Good night, Bob.

148
00:18:25,702 --> 00:18:26,612
Come on, Rosie.

149
00:18:26,902 --> 00:18:28,893
Open the door.

150
00:18:33,822 --> 00:18:36,620
I said, "Open the door," goddamn it!

151
00:18:37,102 --> 00:18:38,774
Stop it. I'm trying to sleep.

152
00:18:39,382 --> 00:18:41,179
Open the goddamn door!

153
00:18:41,262 --> 00:18:45,699
Leave me alone! Go away!
Go get drunk for all I care.

154
00:18:46,222 --> 00:18:48,611
Okay, babe, you asked for it.

155
00:19:03,222 --> 00:19:06,771
Our first gig's next Friday night.
Let me see if you're ready by then.

156
00:19:06,942 --> 00:19:07,931
Right.

157
00:19:18,222 --> 00:19:20,019
Rosie, are you okay?

158
00:19:22,182 --> 00:19:23,774
Yeah, Richie, what do you want?

159
00:19:27,022 --> 00:19:28,137
Nothing.

160
00:19:28,302 --> 00:19:29,655
Sorry, my mistake.

161
00:19:33,462 --> 00:19:35,771
No, Bob. It's no use. No more.

162
00:19:37,182 --> 00:19:40,538
Don't you ever get enough?
Is this all you want me for?

163
00:19:42,022 --> 00:19:42,613
Come here.

164
00:19:56,022 --> 00:19:57,250
What is it?

165
00:19:57,622 --> 00:20:00,420
I made it. I'm in the Silhouettes.

166
00:20:00,782 --> 00:20:02,215
Really, mijo?

167
00:20:04,182 --> 00:20:05,615
That's wonderful.

168
00:20:11,822 --> 00:20:13,016
Who's the Silhouettes?

169
00:20:13,262 --> 00:20:15,412
This is not like I expected.

170
00:20:15,942 --> 00:20:18,092
You are not like I expected.

171
00:20:18,662 --> 00:20:20,732
I don't have a life here!

172
00:20:21,782 --> 00:20:23,295
You're always gone.

173
00:20:23,542 --> 00:20:25,658
Do you think I like being here alone?

174
00:20:25,742 --> 00:20:28,381
Look, Rosie, you're not my wife!

175
00:20:30,222 --> 00:20:31,814
Stop being such a drag.

176
00:20:32,822 --> 00:20:34,733
What the shit's eating you anyway?

177
00:20:39,822 --> 00:20:40,857
I'm pregnant.

178
00:20:50,822 --> 00:20:52,574
Aren't you going to say anything?

179
00:20:52,902 --> 00:20:54,494
What's there to say?

180
00:20:55,742 --> 00:20:57,061
It's not my first...

181
00:20:57,662 --> 00:20:59,095
...or my last.

182
00:21:13,502 --> 00:21:15,458
You son of a bitch!

183
00:21:17,262 --> 00:21:18,775
What's going on?

184
00:21:22,502 --> 00:21:24,094
Bitch! You bitch.

185
00:21:25,062 --> 00:21:27,053
Is it my fault you got pregnant?

186
00:21:29,702 --> 00:21:31,135
Richie, don't!

187
00:21:31,782 --> 00:21:33,693
- It's none of your business.
- But I...

188
00:21:39,782 --> 00:21:41,852
I am not your puta!

189
00:21:44,022 --> 00:21:45,694
Do you always carry a guitar?

190
00:21:46,662 --> 00:21:48,095
It's my future.

191
00:21:48,182 --> 00:21:49,820
Sure of yourself, aren't you?

192
00:21:49,902 --> 00:21:51,654
Yeah. Aren't you?

193
00:21:53,062 --> 00:21:55,132
No, I'm the new kid on the block.

194
00:21:55,622 --> 00:21:57,135
Poor little rich girl.

195
00:21:58,022 --> 00:21:59,455
I'm not rich.

196
00:22:00,582 --> 00:22:01,571
Right.

197
00:22:06,502 --> 00:22:07,776
My dad.

198
00:22:11,262 --> 00:22:13,492
I want a place like this
for my mom one day.

199
00:22:14,942 --> 00:22:15,931
Hi, Daddy!

200
00:22:20,822 --> 00:22:22,255
I have to go.

201
00:22:24,382 --> 00:22:25,371
Listen...

202
00:22:26,422 --> 00:22:29,175
...I'm playing at a garage party tonight.
Want to come?

203
00:22:30,382 --> 00:22:32,942
- Garage party?
- It's my big debut.

204
00:22:33,102 --> 00:22:35,821
It'll be a real gas, kitten. Please, come.

205
00:22:40,342 --> 00:22:41,013
Okay.

206
00:22:43,622 --> 00:22:44,975
I'll meet you there.

207
00:22:45,062 --> 00:22:47,701
No problem.
I wrote down the address for you...

208
00:22:48,502 --> 00:22:49,776
...in case.

209
00:22:54,782 --> 00:22:55,771
- 'Bye.
- 'Bye.

210
00:23:10,902 --> 00:23:12,176
Who's the big kid?

211
00:23:13,102 --> 00:23:14,137
A friend.

212
00:23:15,542 --> 00:23:17,533
What is he, Italian?

213
00:23:43,942 --> 00:23:46,661
- Mom, look at Richie.
- I see him, baby.

214
00:24:41,062 --> 00:24:43,292
Mama, when's Richie going to sing?

215
00:24:43,422 --> 00:24:46,016
Pretty soon. Now stop asking me.

216
00:24:49,302 --> 00:24:52,214
We thank all of you
for attending our dance tonight.

217
00:24:52,542 --> 00:24:55,261
We hope you had an evening to remember.

218
00:24:55,582 --> 00:24:57,493
So, until next time...

219
00:24:58,102 --> 00:25:01,936
...speaking for myself, Rudy Castro,
and all the guys in the band...

220
00:25:02,022 --> 00:25:05,856
...we are the Silhouettes,
bidding you a good night.

221
00:25:16,742 --> 00:25:18,255
Goodnight, Richie.

222
00:25:21,022 --> 00:25:23,456
What do they mean, not letting you sing?

223
00:25:24,982 --> 00:25:26,540
Who do they want, Elvis?

224
00:25:26,622 --> 00:25:29,295
No big deal. I'll make them come around.

225
00:25:29,742 --> 00:25:32,779
They don't know who they're dealing with.

226
00:25:33,942 --> 00:25:37,457
My granddaddy
was a full-blooded Yaqui Indian.

227
00:25:54,982 --> 00:25:57,291
What's the matter? Bad dreams?

228
00:26:00,862 --> 00:26:02,454
I'm sorry, carnal.

229
00:26:02,822 --> 00:26:05,211
I didn't mean to wake you up but...

230
00:26:05,662 --> 00:26:07,892
...I need a place to crash.

231
00:26:10,022 --> 00:26:12,934
No, man, here. Come on. Get some rest.

232
00:26:22,462 --> 00:26:24,054
Keep your ass to the wall.

233
00:26:24,142 --> 00:26:27,134
I'm so messed up,
I may take you for Rosie.

234
00:26:38,422 --> 00:26:40,982
Where'd you get this picture of Steve?

235
00:26:41,222 --> 00:26:43,133
Mom gave it to me after the funeral.

236
00:26:44,582 --> 00:26:46,652
I wish I could have been there.

237
00:26:54,342 --> 00:26:57,220
But he was your dad, anyway. Not mine.

238
00:26:59,422 --> 00:27:01,652
Don't forget to turn off the light.

239
00:27:10,742 --> 00:27:12,175
You been laid yet?

240
00:27:12,542 --> 00:27:15,261
I'm serious. I know what your problem is.

241
00:27:15,942 --> 00:27:17,898
Sperm pressure. It's scientific.

242
00:27:17,982 --> 00:27:21,657
You got hard-ons all the time,
nightmares, wet dreams...

243
00:27:21,742 --> 00:27:23,653
Shut up and go to sleep!

244
00:27:27,902 --> 00:27:30,939
A kid your age
needs an authority figure around.

245
00:27:31,902 --> 00:27:33,813
Believe me, I know.

246
00:27:39,862 --> 00:27:42,330
I tried to go, Richie. Honestly.

247
00:27:42,542 --> 00:27:45,102
- You don't have to apologise.
- Who's apologising?

248
00:27:45,422 --> 00:27:46,855
My dad wouldn't let me.

249
00:27:47,262 --> 00:27:48,820
- Honest to God?
- Honest.

250
00:27:51,302 --> 00:27:53,020
I really wanted to be there.

251
00:27:55,622 --> 00:27:57,214
Cowboy Palace!

252
00:28:01,222 --> 00:28:03,861
I can't do it, honey. Richie's a minor.

253
00:28:03,942 --> 00:28:06,012
He'll be singing, not drinking.

254
00:28:06,622 --> 00:28:08,931
Rock 'n' roll to a bunch of cowboys.

255
00:28:09,782 --> 00:28:12,171
My husband, Steve,
drank himself to death in here.

256
00:28:12,782 --> 00:28:14,613
Don't you owe his boy something?

257
00:28:15,022 --> 00:28:17,013
We should've brought Chino.
I need a drummer.

258
00:28:17,102 --> 00:28:20,094
Screw the Silhouettes.
I'll keep the beat for you.

259
00:28:20,502 --> 00:28:23,335
They got drums inside.
What're you going to play?

260
00:28:23,422 --> 00:28:24,411
Boney Maronie.

261
00:28:25,102 --> 00:28:28,731
Boney Maronie? To these shit-stompers?

262
00:28:33,982 --> 00:28:35,620
Howard, they're here!

263
00:28:35,862 --> 00:28:37,614
Cut the jukebox.

264
00:28:40,022 --> 00:28:41,933
Testing, one, two, three.

265
00:28:42,342 --> 00:28:45,618
Sure good to see you folks
out there tonight. Everybody having fun?

266
00:28:45,702 --> 00:28:46,851
Turn the jukebox back on!

267
00:28:46,942 --> 00:28:50,651
One of our local boys is making his
professional debut tonight right here.

268
00:28:50,742 --> 00:28:53,051
Let's give a great big
round of applause for...

269
00:28:53,182 --> 00:28:56,618
...Ricky "Ricardo" Valenzuela.

270
00:29:04,542 --> 00:29:05,531
Howdy.

271
00:29:12,582 --> 00:29:14,300
Here's one out of Lubbock, Texas.

272
00:29:14,382 --> 00:29:15,701
Lubbock, Texas?

273
00:29:15,942 --> 00:29:17,170
Follow me.

274
00:30:35,022 --> 00:30:38,094
"You don't know
what you've been missing"

275
00:30:41,342 --> 00:30:43,697
We were rocking, man, we were rolling!

276
00:30:43,862 --> 00:30:46,854
Didn't I tell you? We don't need no band.

277
00:30:46,942 --> 00:30:51,458
We just play the bars with the drummer.
Me, for instance.

278
00:30:51,662 --> 00:30:53,493
I'm talking about making money!

279
00:30:53,582 --> 00:30:57,700
I'm talking about making music.
My music. That's all I care about.

280
00:31:01,022 --> 00:31:02,933
What you need is exposure.

281
00:31:03,342 --> 00:31:06,971
A big place where you can sell
a lot of tickets, put a lot of posters up.

282
00:31:07,102 --> 00:31:08,251
You gotta think big!

283
00:31:08,382 --> 00:31:10,942
- You want to be my manager?
- Sure, I can do it.

284
00:31:11,182 --> 00:31:14,492
I can get the American Legion Hall.
Steve was a World War I veteran.

285
00:31:14,582 --> 00:31:16,459
What, you don't think I can do it?

286
00:31:17,702 --> 00:31:19,579
Just for that you can be my flunky.

287
00:31:19,742 --> 00:31:22,779
Mom, thanks, but no thanks.
Anybody but Bob.

288
00:31:24,182 --> 00:31:26,980
- What does that mean?
- Just take care of Rosie, okay stud?

289
00:31:28,142 --> 00:31:29,814
Try staying home for a change.

290
00:31:31,182 --> 00:31:32,171
Listen, punk...

291
00:31:32,262 --> 00:31:34,298
- I don't need you...
- Stop it, both of you.

292
00:31:34,382 --> 00:31:36,020
Richie, don't be so "High Tone."

293
00:31:36,102 --> 00:31:40,015
And you Bob, you're your brother's keeper.
You never heard of that?

294
00:31:41,622 --> 00:31:43,340
'Morning Connie, Richie.

295
00:31:45,662 --> 00:31:46,651
'Morning.

296
00:31:47,342 --> 00:31:49,731
You missed a great show last night.

297
00:31:49,862 --> 00:31:51,853
Richie was wonderful.

298
00:31:52,142 --> 00:31:54,098
Really? I'm not surprised.

299
00:31:55,582 --> 00:31:57,493
I'm flying this coop.

300
00:31:57,702 --> 00:31:58,976
Catch you all later.

301
00:31:59,382 --> 00:32:00,781
I'm late for work.

302
00:32:00,902 --> 00:32:02,699
What did I do with my purse?

303
00:32:03,062 --> 00:32:04,575
"Flying the coop."

304
00:32:04,942 --> 00:32:05,977
That's it!

305
00:32:06,422 --> 00:32:10,301
"Richard Valenzuela and his
Flying Guitar."

306
00:32:21,502 --> 00:32:25,256
- This is it. What do you think?
- This is beautiful, man.

307
00:32:25,342 --> 00:32:27,697
With some publicity
we can raise the roof.

308
00:32:27,782 --> 00:32:31,252
You're dreaming, Valenzuela.
They wouldn't even let us into this place.

309
00:32:31,342 --> 00:32:33,572
No, I told you.
My mom, she set it all up.

310
00:32:34,102 --> 00:32:36,616
Since when is your mama
running this band?

311
00:32:37,262 --> 00:32:40,777
- We need all the breaks we can get.
- I heard that. Richie's right, man.

312
00:32:40,862 --> 00:32:41,897
No dice, Chino.

313
00:32:42,222 --> 00:32:45,294
I decide what's best for the Silhouettes,
and this ain't it.

314
00:32:45,382 --> 00:32:47,418
So, let's beat it out of here.

315
00:32:47,782 --> 00:32:49,215
What's his problem?

316
00:32:52,702 --> 00:32:54,294
Are you guys coming or what?

317
00:33:00,782 --> 00:33:02,215
I guess it's "what."

318
00:33:11,062 --> 00:33:12,256
What's going on?

319
00:33:12,342 --> 00:33:14,060
Show business, mijo.

320
00:33:15,222 --> 00:33:18,259
Show business? These look like shit.

321
00:33:18,542 --> 00:33:20,612
A monkey can draw better than this.

322
00:33:21,102 --> 00:33:21,773
Oh yeah?

323
00:33:27,222 --> 00:33:29,258
Should have kept my mouth shut.

324
00:33:29,342 --> 00:33:32,220
Every wall, every liquor store.

325
00:33:32,622 --> 00:33:34,852
Every telephone pole in town.

326
00:33:34,942 --> 00:33:37,854
Hit them all! Now, tear buns!

327
00:33:57,982 --> 00:34:01,338
We need a little help
hanging that crepe paper across there.

328
00:34:02,382 --> 00:34:06,136
Those chairs don't go there, Felipe.
They don't go there.

329
00:34:09,142 --> 00:34:13,101
You're looking really handsome.
The girls are gonna go crazy over you.

330
00:34:13,182 --> 00:34:15,742
- There's only one girl I care about.
- Who's that?

331
00:34:16,462 --> 00:34:18,054
Nobody you'd know.

332
00:34:19,222 --> 00:34:22,020
- Is everything in order in here?
- Perfect. Thanks, Rosie.

333
00:34:23,902 --> 00:34:25,540
We're gonna pack the place, Mom.

334
00:34:25,622 --> 00:34:29,058
I hope so. We paid for this place
with our rent money.

335
00:34:31,502 --> 00:34:35,541
Someday I'll buy you
the house of your dreams. I promise.

336
00:34:35,622 --> 00:34:38,011
Tell me about it. Where is Bob?

337
00:35:17,142 --> 00:35:20,020
Three cups, thirty cents.
Here's your change.

338
00:35:20,222 --> 00:35:24,420
Ten cases. Counting the door, that's $150.

339
00:35:24,502 --> 00:35:26,094
We gotta do this again.

340
00:35:42,902 --> 00:35:44,938
- Did you find Bob?
- What do you want? No.

341
00:35:45,022 --> 00:35:46,740
- Did you look?
- No!

342
00:35:58,662 --> 00:36:01,051
- He's pretty good.
- He's great.

343
00:36:03,022 --> 00:36:04,341
What'll you have?

344
00:36:04,462 --> 00:36:05,690
Can I have a Coke?

345
00:36:07,942 --> 00:36:09,534
Here's a little number...

346
00:36:09,822 --> 00:36:13,019
...for the criminal element here tonight.

347
00:36:13,742 --> 00:36:16,097
And you know who you are.

348
00:36:43,182 --> 00:36:44,854
Look at my Richie...

349
00:36:45,102 --> 00:36:47,058
...shining like a star.

350
00:36:49,462 --> 00:36:50,975
Look at Bob.

351
00:36:58,382 --> 00:37:01,533
You're drunk, Bob. Give me that bottle.

352
00:37:29,982 --> 00:37:31,893
That's my brother.

353
00:37:33,502 --> 00:37:34,776
Asshole!

354
00:37:54,102 --> 00:37:55,421
Stop it!

355
00:38:22,142 --> 00:38:23,416
Why, Bob?

356
00:38:24,222 --> 00:38:26,213
How could you do this to Richie?

357
00:38:26,902 --> 00:38:29,939
To Richie? I did this to me!

358
00:38:30,022 --> 00:38:33,059
That's my Bob.
Always thinking of others first.

359
00:38:33,302 --> 00:38:36,453
- Shut your goddamn mouth!
- Don't take it out on Rosie.

360
00:38:39,262 --> 00:38:40,741
You don't understand.

361
00:38:41,902 --> 00:38:44,462
You don't understand a goddamn thing.

362
00:38:46,982 --> 00:38:50,497
What do you think,
the whole world revolves around you?

363
00:39:09,622 --> 00:39:11,135
Is this where you live?

364
00:39:12,062 --> 00:39:13,051
No.

365
00:39:13,582 --> 00:39:16,050
I live down the street.

366
00:39:16,782 --> 00:39:18,215
Hop in, I'll take you home.

367
00:39:19,782 --> 00:39:21,693
Why don't we just go for a drive?

368
00:39:21,822 --> 00:39:23,574
Okay, you drive.

369
00:39:28,542 --> 00:39:30,134
What do you think?

370
00:39:31,742 --> 00:39:33,016
Not bad...

371
00:39:33,702 --> 00:39:35,215
...for a birthday present.

372
00:39:38,142 --> 00:39:39,734
You say you're not rich?

373
00:39:40,022 --> 00:39:43,856
My dad sells cars.
Can I help it if he knows his business?

374
00:39:45,622 --> 00:39:48,011
He just didn't want me
walking home anymore.

375
00:39:50,382 --> 00:39:51,656
Because of me?

376
00:39:54,942 --> 00:39:56,853
How come you've been avoiding me?

377
00:39:59,582 --> 00:40:01,220
Is it that blow-out at the dance?

378
00:40:01,582 --> 00:40:04,221
- Don't be silly.
- Then what's the problem?

379
00:40:07,782 --> 00:40:08,897
My dad.

380
00:40:09,542 --> 00:40:12,534
Does it mean I can't ask you out
on a regular date?

381
00:40:14,982 --> 00:40:16,813
Why don't you ask me?

382
00:40:20,062 --> 00:40:22,098
I got my own wheels now.

383
00:40:22,182 --> 00:40:24,138
Who cares what my father thinks?

384
00:40:54,502 --> 00:40:58,541
Get your ass in gear.
We still got a lot of places to stop at.

385
00:40:59,622 --> 00:41:00,941
Look at this.

386
00:41:02,262 --> 00:41:05,459
It's Woody Woodpecker and Buzz Buzzard.

387
00:41:06,022 --> 00:41:07,899
This is the real stuff.

388
00:41:08,062 --> 00:41:11,338
- They make cartoons out of these things.
- Can it, jerk-off.

389
00:41:11,422 --> 00:41:12,901
It's kiddie stuff.

390
00:41:13,582 --> 00:41:15,174
Finders, keepers.

391
00:41:35,942 --> 00:41:36,658
Yes?

392
00:41:42,262 --> 00:41:43,581
He lives here. Why?

393
00:42:02,342 --> 00:42:04,219
Happy birthday, mija.

394
00:42:08,062 --> 00:42:10,451
- This man here wants to talk to you.
- Hi, Richie.

395
00:42:10,542 --> 00:42:12,214
Mind if I call you Richie?

396
00:42:12,302 --> 00:42:15,499
My name is Bob Keene, I'm president
of Del-Fi Records in Hollywood.

397
00:42:17,222 --> 00:42:18,575
I don't speak Spanish.

398
00:42:19,782 --> 00:42:21,738
But we can speak business.

399
00:42:22,102 --> 00:42:24,377
Let me just say that I...

400
00:42:24,702 --> 00:42:28,536
...I really dig your music,
and I'd like to record it.

401
00:42:29,182 --> 00:42:30,615
What do you say?

402
00:42:33,142 --> 00:42:37,021
Welcome to Del-Fi Records.
I work out of the basement.

403
00:42:38,422 --> 00:42:40,333
This is your recording studio?

404
00:42:41,422 --> 00:42:43,492
The Ampex is good,
the mikes are excellent.

405
00:42:43,622 --> 00:42:47,774
What more do you need? Relax, Richie.
This is just for starters.

406
00:42:48,862 --> 00:42:50,454
I thought we'd start off easy.

407
00:42:50,542 --> 00:42:52,897
Play a few riffs,
move on to a couple of vocals.

408
00:42:52,982 --> 00:42:56,816
Nothing heavy.
When you're ready, we'll record.

409
00:42:57,142 --> 00:42:58,541
What? Do you mean today?

410
00:42:58,622 --> 00:42:59,975
What about my band?

411
00:43:01,782 --> 00:43:05,138
Frankly, I can't use any of them.
Is that a problem?

412
00:43:05,222 --> 00:43:06,974
Yeah. They're my buddies.

413
00:43:10,302 --> 00:43:11,576
Thank you.

414
00:43:11,862 --> 00:43:12,977
Excuse me.

415
00:43:13,102 --> 00:43:14,535
Wait, Richie.

416
00:43:14,902 --> 00:43:18,258
Wait a minute, man.
I understand about friendship.

417
00:43:18,622 --> 00:43:20,214
I'm being honest here.

418
00:43:20,622 --> 00:43:23,500
Not everybody in this world
gets a shot at the brass ring.

419
00:43:23,582 --> 00:43:27,416
You're going to have to ask yourself
what's more important, your friends...

420
00:43:27,502 --> 00:43:28,855
...or your music.

421
00:43:46,782 --> 00:43:48,056
My family.

422
00:44:41,142 --> 00:44:43,531
- Is that you?
- Richie, come here.

423
00:44:48,902 --> 00:44:50,574
Did you trace this or what?

424
00:44:50,662 --> 00:44:53,381
Trace, hell. This is free hand.
Look at this.

425
00:44:54,542 --> 00:44:57,852
Art contest. $500 in prizes.

426
00:44:58,622 --> 00:45:00,294
Think I should enter it?

427
00:45:00,542 --> 00:45:02,180
Yeah, go for broke.

428
00:46:05,382 --> 00:46:06,895
Fantastic.

429
00:46:28,142 --> 00:46:31,896
I wasn't there when it happened.
But in the dream, it's like I am.

430
00:46:34,182 --> 00:46:35,774
My best friend got killed.

431
00:46:37,222 --> 00:46:40,020
Got crushed by one of those
falling planes.

432
00:46:40,822 --> 00:46:42,335
Where were you that day?

433
00:46:43,062 --> 00:46:44,654
My grandfather's funeral.

434
00:46:45,982 --> 00:46:48,052
I guess his death saved my life.

435
00:46:51,142 --> 00:46:52,495
Thank you.

436
00:46:55,982 --> 00:46:59,497
My mom says it means
I was saved for something special.

437
00:47:00,742 --> 00:47:02,016
Know what it is?

438
00:47:02,582 --> 00:47:04,015
Rock 'n' roll?

439
00:47:08,742 --> 00:47:10,334
I'm gonna be a star...

440
00:47:11,622 --> 00:47:14,534
...because stars don't fall
out of the sky, do they?

441
00:47:19,742 --> 00:47:22,575
You think I'm gonna dump garbage
for the rest of my life?

442
00:47:22,662 --> 00:47:24,380
How will you support the baby?

443
00:47:24,462 --> 00:47:28,216
Drawing Woody Woodpecker?
I don't want that piece of junk in here.

444
00:47:28,302 --> 00:47:31,817
Then to hell with you.
You don't respect any shit I do.

445
00:47:32,102 --> 00:47:34,013
What about your respect for me?

446
00:47:46,622 --> 00:47:49,694
I almost have to rape her
just to have sex.

447
00:47:51,782 --> 00:47:53,374
To her, it's dirty.

448
00:47:58,822 --> 00:47:59,811
Look, Bob...

449
00:48:01,782 --> 00:48:03,693
...it's cool if you move in with me...

450
00:48:04,222 --> 00:48:08,056
...but what about when the baby comes?
Shouldn't you be with Rosie?

451
00:48:09,302 --> 00:48:11,862
My old man wasn't around
when I was born.

452
00:48:12,342 --> 00:48:13,775
Why should I be?

453
00:48:16,622 --> 00:48:19,819
- Figure it out.
- There you are, mijo.

454
00:48:19,902 --> 00:48:21,858
Bob Keene called me at the restaurant.

455
00:48:21,942 --> 00:48:25,014
You're recording at Gold Star Studios
next Wednesday.

456
00:48:25,902 --> 00:48:27,176
Right in Hollywood.

457
00:48:28,382 --> 00:48:29,815
Didn't you hear me?

458
00:48:30,062 --> 00:48:32,940
That means he's going to put you
under contract with Del-Fi.

459
00:48:37,542 --> 00:48:40,010
Richie, I'm so happy.

460
00:48:41,342 --> 00:48:43,537
It's only the beginning, mijo.

461
00:48:46,902 --> 00:48:48,540
Bob has great news, too.

462
00:48:48,622 --> 00:48:50,135
Come on, tell her.

463
00:48:51,782 --> 00:48:54,171
That art contest? I won it.

464
00:48:55,222 --> 00:48:57,099
$500 in prizes.

465
00:48:57,182 --> 00:48:58,854
That's great, mijo.

466
00:48:59,022 --> 00:49:01,411
With the baby coming and everything
the money'll...

467
00:49:01,502 --> 00:49:03,379
In art lessons.

468
00:49:05,062 --> 00:49:07,451
See, they gave me a drafting table.

469
00:49:11,582 --> 00:49:13,493
All our dreams are gonna come true.

470
00:49:13,862 --> 00:49:15,295
I just know it.

471
00:49:30,142 --> 00:49:31,211
Cut.

472
00:49:32,982 --> 00:49:34,335
Let's start again.

473
00:49:40,262 --> 00:49:43,937
Cut. Don't rewrite the song. Just do
it the way you did it the first time.

474
00:49:55,822 --> 00:49:56,811
Cut.

475
00:49:57,342 --> 00:49:58,695
That was our fault.

476
00:50:13,542 --> 00:50:14,531
Cut.

477
00:50:14,742 --> 00:50:19,213
That's more right on, but that "little
darling" line, I like that better.

478
00:50:31,862 --> 00:50:34,854
I don't see what's wrong with those takes.
That's how I sing.

479
00:50:34,942 --> 00:50:37,502
It's gotta be clean.
Each take has to be identical.

480
00:50:37,582 --> 00:50:39,698
- Why?
- So, that we can edit later.

481
00:50:39,982 --> 00:50:41,938
- This isn't Mexico.
- Who said it was?

482
00:50:42,022 --> 00:50:45,901
I lived there. I understand the tradition
of the song, always changing the lyrics.

483
00:50:45,982 --> 00:50:48,701
I've never even been to Mexico.
My music is my music.

484
00:50:48,782 --> 00:50:50,295
You tell him, carnal.

485
00:50:53,822 --> 00:50:55,380
How many more takes?

486
00:50:56,342 --> 00:50:58,253
As many as it takes. Okay?

487
00:51:11,622 --> 00:51:12,611
Cut.

488
00:51:13,542 --> 00:51:16,340
That was good. Same energy.
Just try it again.

489
00:51:32,582 --> 00:51:34,174
Shall I get a new role of tape?

490
00:51:36,462 --> 00:51:39,181
I think we got him.
I can cut something here.

491
00:51:40,622 --> 00:51:44,456
Nice work, Richie. 60 takes, man.
How's the throat?

492
00:51:44,982 --> 00:51:46,893
I think we got it all.

493
00:51:47,582 --> 00:51:50,779
60 takes?
I didn't hear a difference in one of them.

494
00:51:51,822 --> 00:51:53,255
I'm ready to go home.

495
00:51:54,022 --> 00:51:56,900
I want to discuss one thing with you.
Come here.

496
00:52:01,142 --> 00:52:03,531
- What is it?
- Your professional name.

497
00:52:04,702 --> 00:52:09,139
From now on, it's Ritchie with a "t."
R-I-T-C-H-I-E.

498
00:52:09,262 --> 00:52:11,173
I got a new last name for you, too.

499
00:52:11,502 --> 00:52:14,460
Valens with an "s." Ritchie Valens.

500
00:52:15,462 --> 00:52:17,532
- How does that grab you?
- I don't like it.

501
00:52:17,622 --> 00:52:21,012
That's for shit, man!
Valenzuela was our dad's last name.

502
00:52:21,102 --> 00:52:23,980
- You can't just cut it in half.
- It's no big deal.

503
00:52:24,102 --> 00:52:28,175
People in this business change their names
like they change wives.

504
00:52:28,462 --> 00:52:30,817
Even me. My last name is Kuhn.

505
00:52:31,302 --> 00:52:31,973
Look.

506
00:52:33,222 --> 00:52:34,575
Trust me on this one.

507
00:52:36,262 --> 00:52:37,661
Let's just go.

508
00:52:42,713 --> 00:52:43,828
Thanks.

509
00:52:44,113 --> 00:52:47,344
Look, it could've been worse.
You could have been Ricky Zuela.

510
00:52:56,233 --> 00:52:57,586
- Hello.
- Hello?

511
00:52:58,753 --> 00:52:59,947
Is Donna in?

512
00:53:00,033 --> 00:53:02,991
No, Donna's not in. This is her father.
Can I help you?

513
00:53:03,113 --> 00:53:05,707
Daddy, who is it? Is it Ritchie?

514
00:53:10,193 --> 00:53:12,753
Could you tell her
that Ritchie called again, please?

515
00:53:12,833 --> 00:53:14,027
Yeah, okay.

516
00:53:24,153 --> 00:53:27,702
He plays that goddamn jungle music!
Need I say more?

517
00:53:28,873 --> 00:53:31,910
Come on, honey.
You said yourself it's not serious.

518
00:53:32,873 --> 00:53:36,627
I hate Dad when he acts like that!
I just hate him!

519
00:53:36,713 --> 00:53:40,149
Good morning, you survivors!
You want to call? I'd love to talk to you.

520
00:53:40,313 --> 00:53:43,908
We got evicted. We're sleeping
in the car. My wife is pregnant.

521
00:53:44,273 --> 00:53:45,672
You're down about it?

522
00:53:45,753 --> 00:53:48,825
- She's in the car now.
- She's pregnant and sleeping in the car?

523
00:53:48,913 --> 00:53:50,426
She's there right now.

524
00:53:50,713 --> 00:53:53,068
- What kind of car do you have?
- A Rolls Royce.

525
00:53:56,673 --> 00:53:58,823
Your mom listens to KFWB, right?

526
00:53:59,033 --> 00:54:02,309
Ritchie Valens' mom out there
in Pacoima listens, too.

527
00:54:02,393 --> 00:54:05,066
And she's gotta be proud of her boy today!

528
00:54:05,953 --> 00:54:09,423
Ritchie's got a song headed
for the top of the charts, with a bullet.

529
00:54:09,793 --> 00:54:13,468
Ritchie Valens, Come On, Let's Go.

530
00:54:16,513 --> 00:54:18,344
- How are you?
- Pretty good, thanks.

531
00:54:19,233 --> 00:54:20,461
Valens... Valens.

532
00:54:21,633 --> 00:54:23,112
French, right?

533
00:54:23,553 --> 00:54:24,872
How did you know?

534
00:54:26,313 --> 00:54:27,632
Come on, man.

535
00:54:27,713 --> 00:54:29,908
He's one of those barrio kids
from the Valley.

536
00:54:29,993 --> 00:54:30,982
Not for long.

537
00:54:31,073 --> 00:54:32,108
Pretty good.

538
00:54:33,753 --> 00:54:34,902
I know.

539
00:54:41,473 --> 00:54:45,022
Everybody keep it down.
That's my Ritchie on the radio.

540
00:54:48,593 --> 00:54:52,506
- How about a beer?
- Not while I'm working, but I'll get you one.

541
00:55:05,913 --> 00:55:08,108
No, I'm sorry. Donna's studying.

542
00:55:11,793 --> 00:55:15,388
Supper time, pizza fans!
Here's a contest to kick off summer!

543
00:55:15,473 --> 00:55:19,386
We have a special mystery guest
here at the studio. Say hello, Mr. Guest.

544
00:55:19,673 --> 00:55:20,742
Hello.

545
00:55:21,473 --> 00:55:24,624
Here's what you do. Our guest comes
from the San Fernando Valley.

546
00:55:24,713 --> 00:55:28,308
What does he have in common with the
Vice President of the United States?

547
00:55:28,433 --> 00:55:32,711
The first person to identify the mystery
guest will win 12 fresh, hot pizzas.

548
00:55:32,793 --> 00:55:36,945
Here's the kicker: this mystery guest
will deliver the pizzas...

549
00:55:37,033 --> 00:55:41,231
...and have a pizza party at yourplace,
free, from KFWB.

550
00:55:54,273 --> 00:55:56,025
No, Donna's not here.

551
00:55:57,233 --> 00:55:58,222
Thank you.

552
00:55:58,313 --> 00:56:00,224
- She's out on a date.
- Yeah.

553
00:56:01,793 --> 00:56:03,021
Right.

554
00:56:12,753 --> 00:56:14,471
Yes, may I help you?

555
00:56:14,913 --> 00:56:16,187
May I see Donna?

556
00:56:17,473 --> 00:56:18,588
Please.

557
00:56:18,953 --> 00:56:20,306
I know she's here.

558
00:56:22,593 --> 00:56:24,072
Just one moment.

559
00:56:27,113 --> 00:56:28,262
Donna?

560
00:56:30,953 --> 00:56:32,022
It's Ritchie.

561
00:56:32,113 --> 00:56:35,822
Now, it's better not to lead him on dear.
You know how your father is.

562
00:56:36,833 --> 00:56:38,232
Okay.

563
00:56:42,553 --> 00:56:43,872
Hi, Ritchie.

564
00:56:46,833 --> 00:56:48,186
Can we take a walk?

565
00:56:54,113 --> 00:56:55,546
No, I can't.

566
00:56:58,193 --> 00:57:01,265
Okay, let's not beat around the bush.
Are you seeing other guys?

567
00:57:02,713 --> 00:57:06,149
Yeah, I've been out a few times.
What's wrong with that?

568
00:57:07,113 --> 00:57:08,341
You're my girl.

569
00:57:09,433 --> 00:57:11,344
When am I supposed to see you?

570
00:57:12,633 --> 00:57:16,148
I can't tag along to your appearances.
All those other girls...

571
00:57:16,233 --> 00:57:18,383
I don't care about those other girls!

572
00:57:20,913 --> 00:57:22,631
What am I supposed to do?

573
00:57:24,473 --> 00:57:26,703
You don't have time for me right now.

574
00:57:26,793 --> 00:57:28,306
You wanna break it off?

575
00:57:35,113 --> 00:57:36,944
I don't know what I want anymore.

576
00:57:40,073 --> 00:57:41,631
I'll see you around sometime.

577
00:57:42,713 --> 00:57:43,987
Ritchie.

578
00:59:13,673 --> 00:59:14,662
Hello?

579
00:59:15,993 --> 00:59:18,587
- Sorry.
- "Oh, Donna"

580
00:59:19,313 --> 00:59:21,269
- "Oh, Donna"
- That's it.

581
00:59:21,633 --> 00:59:22,668
That's your song.

582
00:59:22,753 --> 00:59:24,311
Thought you'd like to hear it.

583
00:59:24,473 --> 00:59:25,701
It's beautiful.

584
00:59:26,193 --> 00:59:27,228
Thank you.

585
00:59:27,793 --> 00:59:29,067
- 'Bye.
- Yeah.

586
00:59:33,353 --> 00:59:35,742
Carnal, I think I know
what your problem is.

587
00:59:35,953 --> 00:59:38,069
And it's time we did something about it.

588
00:59:38,273 --> 00:59:39,752
Come on, let's go.

589
00:59:40,033 --> 00:59:41,227
Where to?

590
00:59:41,513 --> 00:59:44,505
Let's just go.
I should have done this a long time ago.

591
00:59:44,753 --> 00:59:46,186
Come on, hop on.

592
00:59:47,673 --> 00:59:50,471
- Done what?
- Gotten you some tail, man.

593
01:00:06,113 --> 01:00:07,592
Come on, Ritchie with a "t."

594
01:00:07,673 --> 01:00:11,063
I'm going to show you the best part of TJ.

595
01:00:13,713 --> 01:00:15,465
Ritchie, come here. Check it out.

596
01:00:15,553 --> 01:00:19,466
Don't worry. It smells like fish,
but it'll taste like chicken.

597
01:00:20,673 --> 01:00:22,470
You alright, man!

598
01:00:24,273 --> 01:00:27,265
This is your manager's job,
getting you some tail.

599
01:00:28,233 --> 01:00:30,463
He looks at you,
I bet he sees a meal ticket.

600
01:00:30,753 --> 01:00:32,232
Come on, change the record.

601
01:00:33,513 --> 01:00:35,583
Look, man: "Ritchie Valens."

602
01:00:37,233 --> 01:00:40,543
With a name like that, nobody's
even going to suspect you're Mexican.

603
01:00:42,033 --> 01:00:44,149
I think it's an insult to Steve's memory.

604
01:00:45,233 --> 01:00:48,623
Steve was so gung-ho American,
he'd be proud of anything I do. Lay off.

605
01:00:48,713 --> 01:00:50,385
It's my name.

606
01:00:51,513 --> 01:00:53,265
Yeah, it's your name, man.

607
01:01:11,913 --> 01:01:14,507
- What did she say?
- She likes your big...

608
01:01:17,233 --> 01:01:19,827
- What do you think?
- It looks like a high school prom.

609
01:01:19,913 --> 01:01:22,108
Only this prom puts out.

610
01:01:53,873 --> 01:01:55,943
Look at those bongos.

611
01:01:56,433 --> 01:01:57,343
Get in there.

612
01:01:58,713 --> 01:02:00,226
I can see fine.

613
01:02:01,513 --> 01:02:02,628
Pick one you like.

614
01:02:03,193 --> 01:02:05,866
They'll like you. It's guaranteed.

615
01:02:12,673 --> 01:02:15,870
I don't know. It's really hard to choose.

616
01:02:16,273 --> 01:02:18,912
Shit, take two, man. It's on me.

617
01:02:27,953 --> 01:02:29,386
La Bamba!

618
01:02:29,633 --> 01:02:31,510
Ritchie, come here.

619
01:02:31,993 --> 01:02:34,223
I brought you here to get laid.

620
01:02:34,313 --> 01:02:35,507
Later.

621
01:03:29,793 --> 01:03:31,385
I'm coming.

622
01:03:42,833 --> 01:03:44,789
Connie, I need your help.

623
01:03:44,873 --> 01:03:48,707
It's the baby.
Where is Bob, for God's sake?

624
01:03:52,753 --> 01:03:55,904
I'm gonna get Ritchie, okay?

625
01:03:56,033 --> 01:03:57,466
It's gonna be okay.

626
01:04:59,433 --> 01:05:01,264
Yo no speak-o espanol.

627
01:05:16,113 --> 01:05:19,150
What's the idea, Bob,
leaving me alone with this old man?

628
01:05:20,273 --> 01:05:22,707
I had some business to take care of in TJ.

629
01:05:22,993 --> 01:05:25,223
Besides, you were sleeping it off, stud.

630
01:05:25,633 --> 01:05:26,952
Was I that drunk last night?

631
01:05:27,033 --> 01:05:29,866
You were screwed, blewed, and tattooed!
Look at that.

632
01:05:29,953 --> 01:05:32,023
Well, at least tattooed anyway.

633
01:05:35,833 --> 01:05:37,903
The old man wants us to eat breakfast.

634
01:05:48,633 --> 01:05:50,544
I never had snake before.

635
01:05:53,553 --> 01:05:54,986
It's not bad.

636
01:06:03,313 --> 01:06:04,587
What's he saying?

637
01:06:05,633 --> 01:06:07,703
He says, "Life is a snake.

638
01:06:08,593 --> 01:06:11,790
"A snake crawling out of its
own dead skin.

639
01:06:12,713 --> 01:06:14,032
"Like a dream."

640
01:06:17,233 --> 01:06:19,463
He's a curandero, a healer...

641
01:06:20,113 --> 01:06:23,788
...and a wise man.
He's sort of my spiritual father.

642
01:06:25,273 --> 01:06:27,309
I've been coming to him for years.

643
01:06:32,153 --> 01:06:33,666
He's giving you that.

644
01:06:37,313 --> 01:06:40,066
"To live is to sleep."

645
01:06:43,073 --> 01:06:44,188
"To die...

646
01:06:44,433 --> 01:06:45,866
"... is to awaken."

647
01:06:48,913 --> 01:06:50,824
I told him about your nightmares.

648
01:06:52,193 --> 01:06:55,549
That talisman will help,
if you believe in it.

649
01:07:03,153 --> 01:07:04,745
What is all this?

650
01:07:18,233 --> 01:07:22,226
Mexico! You went to Tijuana
without telling anybody?

651
01:07:22,753 --> 01:07:24,869
A fine pair of sinvergüenzas!

652
01:07:26,273 --> 01:07:29,151
I'd expect this from Bob
but not you, Ritchie.

653
01:07:30,793 --> 01:07:34,069
What did you do, drink the night away?

654
01:07:34,153 --> 01:07:36,747
Okay, it was my fault. I took him there.

655
01:07:36,873 --> 01:07:39,990
- How's Rosie?
- She's in the hospital, where else?

656
01:07:41,713 --> 01:07:44,864
She was all alone.
I had to drive her to the hospital myself!

657
01:07:45,073 --> 01:07:47,143
She was in labour all day with the baby.

658
01:07:47,233 --> 01:07:50,464
Do you hear me?
Do you care about anything?

659
01:07:51,353 --> 01:07:53,662
Go ahead! Go play with your bike!

660
01:07:59,473 --> 01:08:01,225
Did Rosie have a boy or a girl?

661
01:08:01,313 --> 01:08:04,385
She had a girl. We named her Brenda.

662
01:08:06,433 --> 01:08:07,707
What's this?

663
01:08:08,953 --> 01:08:09,988
Bob.

664
01:09:28,473 --> 01:09:31,033
That's beautiful, Ritchie. That's the one.

665
01:09:31,593 --> 01:09:34,983
Coming up in September,
we have the Pacific Ocean Park...

666
01:09:35,553 --> 01:09:37,987
...followed by
the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium.

667
01:09:38,073 --> 01:09:39,347
High Tone lunch, huh?

668
01:09:40,233 --> 01:09:41,985
Followed by...

669
01:09:42,913 --> 01:09:44,426
Are you listening?

670
01:09:45,073 --> 01:09:48,190
...a week's booking in San Francisco.
Now, Ritchie...

671
01:09:48,273 --> 01:09:49,626
...we fly up for that one.

672
01:09:51,113 --> 01:09:52,831
Fly? No, I'd rather drive.

673
01:09:52,913 --> 01:09:55,632
Ritchie, please. It's a long drive.

674
01:09:55,713 --> 01:09:59,865
I don't care. I never fly, I told you.
I have my reasons.

675
01:10:00,593 --> 01:10:03,153
All right, I'll see what I can do.

676
01:10:05,393 --> 01:10:07,987
We still need another single
to go along with Donna.

677
01:10:08,073 --> 01:10:09,586
How about Suzie?

678
01:10:10,953 --> 01:10:12,147
How about La Bamba?

679
01:10:12,353 --> 01:10:15,743
- La Bamba? It's not rock 'n' roll.
- It is the way I play it.

680
01:10:15,993 --> 01:10:18,461
It's a folk song.
I don't want to offend anybody.

681
01:10:18,633 --> 01:10:21,352
- Besides, it's in Spanish.
- That's how I want to sing it.

682
01:10:21,433 --> 01:10:23,947
Rock 'n' roll in Spanish.
You gotta be crazy.

683
01:10:24,193 --> 01:10:26,582
- It'll work. Just let me have a crack at it.
- No.

684
01:10:26,793 --> 01:10:29,990
Even assuming that the other side
of Donna was a throwaway...

685
01:10:30,233 --> 01:10:34,545
...how are you going to handle the lyrics?
You say yourself you don't speak Spanish.

686
01:10:34,633 --> 01:10:37,352
If Nat King Cole can sing in Spanish,
so can I, right?

687
01:10:37,833 --> 01:10:40,791
Come on, Bob-O. What do you say?

688
01:10:42,873 --> 01:10:44,147
Bob-O?

689
01:10:48,233 --> 01:10:49,985
Okay, now smile!

690
01:11:49,353 --> 01:11:50,866
It drives like a dream!

691
01:11:50,953 --> 01:11:52,989
Beats the hell out of taking a train.

692
01:11:53,073 --> 01:11:54,870
How much did this baby cost?

693
01:11:55,353 --> 01:11:56,945
You don't want to know.

694
01:11:58,513 --> 01:12:00,902
But if all goes well in Philadelphia...

695
01:12:01,673 --> 01:12:03,265
...the car is yours.

696
01:12:03,353 --> 01:12:04,342
Philly?

697
01:12:05,873 --> 01:12:07,545
We're going to Philadelphia?

698
01:12:07,673 --> 01:12:09,265
American Bandstand.

699
01:12:11,993 --> 01:12:14,553
We fly up for that. Okay?

700
01:12:20,473 --> 01:12:22,225
Come on, let's go.

701
01:12:28,713 --> 01:12:32,023
- I thought you said you didn't like to fly.
- I don't.

702
01:12:32,113 --> 01:12:34,308
But I love driving fast.

703
01:12:34,473 --> 01:12:37,192
Let me in, damn it!
I want to see my daughter!

704
01:12:37,673 --> 01:12:40,983
I'm her father! I'm her father, goddamn it.

705
01:12:41,073 --> 01:12:42,631
You're a goddamn drunk!

706
01:12:42,753 --> 01:12:44,425
Bob, stop it.

707
01:12:44,713 --> 01:12:48,069
Get back. Have you gone crazy on me?

708
01:12:48,593 --> 01:12:50,663
I have finally had it.

709
01:12:51,193 --> 01:12:54,105
- I want to see my daughter.
- Not in your condition.

710
01:12:54,193 --> 01:12:57,424
I went pendeja for the motorcycle,
but no more.

711
01:12:57,513 --> 01:12:59,663
- I want my wife.
- You don't want a wife.

712
01:12:59,793 --> 01:13:02,432
He wants a love slave.
One that he can kick around.

713
01:13:02,513 --> 01:13:05,152
Sober up and you can see her tomorrow.

714
01:13:05,233 --> 01:13:07,667
Now go downstairs and pass out.

715
01:13:08,433 --> 01:13:11,664
I've got enough to worry about
with Ritchie.

716
01:13:14,153 --> 01:13:17,270
You always worry more about Ritchie.

717
01:13:17,393 --> 01:13:20,226
What about me?

718
01:13:20,913 --> 01:13:23,825
I know you don't give
a goddamn about me.

719
01:13:24,353 --> 01:13:27,823
You had me turned in!
You had me locked up!

720
01:13:28,353 --> 01:13:31,470
Do you think I could ever
forgive you for that?

721
01:13:35,313 --> 01:13:37,224
You can't keep me from seeing my kid.

722
01:13:37,513 --> 01:13:40,983
This is my house. I'll kick you all out.

723
01:13:50,193 --> 01:13:51,342
You see anything?

724
01:13:52,393 --> 01:13:56,352
I just saw the Grand Canyon.
It's a long way down there, boy.

725
01:14:00,153 --> 01:14:01,427
You okay?

726
01:14:08,353 --> 01:14:09,706
You know what, Bob-O?

727
01:14:10,313 --> 01:14:13,942
I've always believed
I was going to die in a plane crash.

728
01:14:14,033 --> 01:14:17,343
That's a hell of a thing to say
while we're still in the air.

729
01:14:19,433 --> 01:14:23,392
It's do or die, man.
American Bandstand, Philadelphia, PA.

730
01:14:23,513 --> 01:14:25,583
Drink this. It's vodka.

731
01:14:27,153 --> 01:14:28,268
Straight.

732
01:14:30,033 --> 01:14:33,025
And away we go.
You are all comfortably seated, I presume.

733
01:14:33,593 --> 01:14:34,548
Excellent.

734
01:14:34,673 --> 01:14:37,392
Let's greet a young man
who's making his debut...

735
01:14:37,553 --> 01:14:40,670
...here on American Bandstand.
From Del-Fi Records in Los Angeles.

736
01:14:40,753 --> 01:14:43,028
Ladies and gentleman,
here's Ritchie Valens.

737
01:15:24,393 --> 01:15:25,906
What do you want?

738
01:15:26,873 --> 01:15:28,226
I got money.

739
01:15:28,313 --> 01:15:29,905
I don't want your money.

740
01:15:30,313 --> 01:15:31,746
What the hell?

741
01:15:31,913 --> 01:15:35,588
- I was watching that! Put that back on.
- You've had enough for one afternoon.

742
01:15:35,913 --> 01:15:38,632
Put it back on! That dude's my brother!

743
01:15:38,713 --> 01:15:41,273
Yeah, and I'm your Irish uncle, too.
Leave it off.

744
01:16:12,153 --> 01:16:14,542
What'd you think of Ritchie
on American Bandstand?

745
01:16:14,633 --> 01:16:18,308
- I think it's so keen that he was on there.
- I can't believe he sang Donna.

746
01:16:18,393 --> 01:16:20,224
You are so lucky.

747
01:16:20,313 --> 01:16:22,383
And you?
Who are you taking to the dance?

748
01:16:22,473 --> 01:16:25,909
- Nobody.
- Oh, come...

749
01:16:32,953 --> 01:16:35,069
- Hi, kitten.
- Hi.

750
01:16:36,113 --> 01:16:37,865
So, where's your car?

751
01:16:37,953 --> 01:16:41,025
It was a loaner. My dad sold it.

752
01:16:41,313 --> 01:16:42,348
Hop in.

753
01:16:45,833 --> 01:16:47,869
- Hi, Suzy.
- Hi, Ritchie.

754
01:16:51,833 --> 01:16:54,301
Hi, can I have your photograph?
I mean, autograph?

755
01:16:54,393 --> 01:16:56,987
- Can I get one, too?
- Can I get one?

756
01:16:59,313 --> 01:17:00,666
I'll do you one better...

757
01:17:00,753 --> 01:17:02,550
...I'll get you Donna's autograph, too.

758
01:17:06,353 --> 01:17:08,025
Just like old times?

759
01:17:08,553 --> 01:17:10,066
I really missed you.

760
01:17:11,233 --> 01:17:12,825
I've missed you, too.

761
01:17:18,393 --> 01:17:19,826
So, how's school?

762
01:17:20,353 --> 01:17:23,982
Not the same without you.
When are you coming back?

763
01:17:24,753 --> 01:17:26,391
My school days are over, kitten.

764
01:17:26,633 --> 01:17:28,703
Bob-O's got me booked all winter and fall.

765
01:17:28,913 --> 01:17:30,471
I'll be in the Big Apple.

766
01:17:33,073 --> 01:17:35,189
I'm really happy for you, Ritchie.

767
01:17:35,993 --> 01:17:39,144
All your success and everything,
you really deserve it.

768
01:17:40,513 --> 01:17:41,787
I'm flying.

769
01:17:43,593 --> 01:17:45,185
I'm really flying.

770
01:18:14,393 --> 01:18:15,951
It's yours, Mom.

771
01:18:16,193 --> 01:18:18,263
- It's mine?
- Yes.

772
01:18:27,553 --> 01:18:29,145
Come on.

773
01:18:30,953 --> 01:18:34,423
- Is this where we're going to live?
- It's like a castle.

774
01:18:35,793 --> 01:18:36,987
This is home.

775
01:18:39,793 --> 01:18:41,385
That's the garage.

776
01:18:42,193 --> 01:18:44,502
Over there is the guest house.

777
01:18:46,473 --> 01:18:47,986
Come on, slow poke.

778
01:18:48,073 --> 01:18:50,428
Look at this. Isn't it nice?

779
01:18:51,913 --> 01:18:55,826
Right here is where I think
we'll put the swimming pool.

780
01:18:55,953 --> 01:18:58,706
No, Ritchie, the girls can't swim.
I don't want no pool.

781
01:19:04,913 --> 01:19:06,744
We'll make it a dishwasher, right?

782
01:19:06,833 --> 01:19:09,393
No problem. But after we fly back east.

783
01:19:09,913 --> 01:19:12,985
- Back again?
- 10 day tour, 13 cities.

784
01:19:13,353 --> 01:19:16,072
Including a spot on national television.

785
01:19:16,553 --> 01:19:19,226
So, congratulations, Mrs. Valens.

786
01:19:19,753 --> 01:19:21,948
Here are the keys to your new home.

787
01:19:22,233 --> 01:19:25,589
Ritchie, this is better
than Queen for a Day.

788
01:19:26,193 --> 01:19:27,945
I love you, Mom.

789
01:19:28,473 --> 01:19:30,111
You're the best.

790
01:20:05,313 --> 01:20:07,463
What's the matter? Nervous?

791
01:20:07,553 --> 01:20:09,783
I'm just a kid from Pacoima.

792
01:20:57,593 --> 01:20:59,584
You're gonna knock 'em dead.

793
01:20:59,673 --> 01:21:01,948
Eddie Cochran, a wonderful human being!

794
01:21:02,033 --> 01:21:06,709
And now for you rock cats, another
wonderful human being, Mr. Jackie Wilson!

795
01:21:10,713 --> 01:21:13,750
Eddie, you were great, man. Really great.

796
01:21:14,913 --> 01:21:17,143
It's that live New York audience.

797
01:21:17,273 --> 01:21:17,989
Rock 'n' roll is an addiction.

798
01:21:39,513 --> 01:21:41,265
Here you are, Ritchie.

799
01:21:41,353 --> 01:21:43,423
Where else? The kid's got taste.

800
01:21:43,633 --> 01:21:46,067
I need you, Valens.
One of the Belmonts got sick.

801
01:21:46,193 --> 01:21:48,582
Probably malnutrition
from this three-ring circus.

802
01:21:48,673 --> 01:21:50,504
- Just kidding.
- I got to move you up.

803
01:21:50,593 --> 01:21:54,506
You're going on after Jackie Wilson.
In five minutes. You can do it.

804
01:21:54,593 --> 01:21:55,582
Good luck.

805
01:21:55,753 --> 01:21:57,266
They're waiting for you.

806
01:21:57,713 --> 01:21:58,828
- Let's go!
- Get rocking!

807
01:23:14,513 --> 01:23:18,426
If they love you, they'll want to kill you.
If they don't, same difference.

808
01:23:23,193 --> 01:23:25,104
And here he is...

809
01:23:25,433 --> 01:23:29,506
...America's newest rock 'n'
roll sensation...

810
01:23:29,873 --> 01:23:33,707
...the California Kid, Ritchie Valens.

811
01:23:47,353 --> 01:23:49,184
This is a bit of a rattlesnake.

812
01:26:04,833 --> 01:26:06,425
No, I mean it Bob-O...

813
01:26:14,793 --> 01:26:16,465
Merry Christmas, High Tone.

814
01:26:17,593 --> 01:26:19,026
I've missed you.

815
01:26:23,113 --> 01:26:25,502
Okay, go ahead and open the presents.

816
01:26:27,673 --> 01:26:29,664
Just the little kids.

817
01:26:39,033 --> 01:26:41,183
- Look at all this food.
- Wonderful.

818
01:26:41,433 --> 01:26:44,152
- Hungry?
- I could eat a horse.

819
01:26:49,993 --> 01:26:51,267
Seven and seven?

820
01:26:53,113 --> 01:26:54,148
What about you?

821
01:26:54,313 --> 01:26:56,065
I'm on the wagon, man.

822
01:26:56,753 --> 01:26:58,186
The garbage wagon.

823
01:26:59,113 --> 01:27:01,104
$5 a week and all you can eat.

824
01:27:01,193 --> 01:27:03,582
With all this food, I'm staying.

825
01:27:08,313 --> 01:27:10,224
Bobby, where's Mom's new dress?

826
01:27:10,953 --> 01:27:14,025
- What new dress?
- The one I asked you to buy her.

827
01:27:15,233 --> 01:27:18,350
You're the asshole with all the money.
Buy it yourself.

828
01:27:24,313 --> 01:27:27,510
Don't let him upset you.
He's been on the wagon for a month.

829
01:27:27,673 --> 01:27:30,870
He's meaner when he's drunk.
Come on, help yourself.

830
01:27:32,233 --> 01:27:35,145
Let's go into the living room.
I got a present for Ritchie.

831
01:27:51,353 --> 01:27:53,913
I just got mauled by King Kong!

832
01:27:54,553 --> 01:27:56,305
Everybody, let's party!

833
01:27:56,433 --> 01:27:58,867
This is a celebration. My Ritchie is home!

834
01:28:16,873 --> 01:28:17,908
You okay, Bob?

835
01:28:19,713 --> 01:28:21,146
Sure, I'm okay.

836
01:28:21,993 --> 01:28:23,585
Mom was asking for you.

837
01:28:24,513 --> 01:28:25,946
She afraid I'm drunk?

838
01:28:26,033 --> 01:28:29,264
I've had one sip of beer,
and it tastes like piss to me. Want it?

839
01:28:49,553 --> 01:28:51,145
What's your problem, man?

840
01:28:54,633 --> 01:28:56,146
Old Steve.

841
01:28:57,313 --> 01:29:00,669
He always said you'd be somebody.
And I bought it, too.

842
01:29:01,793 --> 01:29:05,149
If that's the way Steve wanted it,
that's the way it was gonna be.

843
01:29:06,033 --> 01:29:09,070
Even after he told me he wasn't my dad.

844
01:29:10,993 --> 01:29:12,551
Once I knew the full score...

845
01:29:12,633 --> 01:29:16,831
...I understood why he always
treated you a little bit better than me.

846
01:29:18,073 --> 01:29:21,543
I said, "I'll just hang around
and take the leftovers."

847
01:29:22,233 --> 01:29:24,110
Like a dog.

848
01:29:24,313 --> 01:29:26,383
That's how much I loved Steve.

849
01:29:26,673 --> 01:29:28,026
Like a goddamn dog!

850
01:29:28,233 --> 01:29:30,508
Look, we don't have to talk
about this now.

851
01:29:30,833 --> 01:29:33,905
Shit! I want to talk about it now
and you'll listen!

852
01:29:34,073 --> 01:29:35,825
This is a crock of shit.

853
01:29:35,953 --> 01:29:40,105
He set you up to conquer the world,
and he didn't leave me shit!

854
01:29:40,233 --> 01:29:42,701
Nobody told you
to throw your life away, man.

855
01:29:42,793 --> 01:29:45,830
I'm only sorry I didn't say anything
about your drinking.

856
01:29:45,913 --> 01:29:47,232
You did it to yourself.

857
01:29:47,313 --> 01:29:50,862
You come in here
like you own the goddamn country.

858
01:29:51,073 --> 01:29:54,748
To me, you'll always be the little
asshole who followed me around.

859
01:29:54,953 --> 01:29:56,705
Yeah, I followed you around.

860
01:29:56,953 --> 01:29:59,831
I followed you around
'cause I thought you were somebody.

861
01:30:00,073 --> 01:30:01,108
Then.

862
01:30:01,353 --> 01:30:03,264
Don't you walk out on me!

863
01:30:08,593 --> 01:30:10,663
Don't you talk to me like this!

864
01:30:14,713 --> 01:30:16,829
You wanted her. I'm not Rosie, asshole.

865
01:30:17,913 --> 01:30:19,824
You asked for it!

866
01:30:20,113 --> 01:30:22,468
I'll kill you!

867
01:30:45,633 --> 01:30:47,942
He couldn't have meant it. He's just hurt.

868
01:30:48,913 --> 01:30:51,473
Your success can't be easy for him.

869
01:30:53,433 --> 01:30:54,548
I love you, Donna.

870
01:30:54,713 --> 01:30:56,385
I'll always love you.

871
01:30:58,113 --> 01:31:00,024
You sound so serious.

872
01:31:01,433 --> 01:31:02,388
I am.

873
01:31:05,553 --> 01:31:07,783
I'm still going to marry you
one of these days.

874
01:31:09,513 --> 01:31:10,832
Will you wait for me?

875
01:31:10,993 --> 01:31:12,585
For how long? Forever?

876
01:31:17,153 --> 01:31:18,632
No, until I'm 25.

877
01:31:18,713 --> 01:31:22,183
Then I'll have a big glass cabinet
to keep all my gold records in.

878
01:31:28,353 --> 01:31:29,866
I love you.

879
01:31:33,513 --> 01:31:37,745
I'm never going to let anyone get in
the way of my feelings for you, ever again.

880
01:31:42,073 --> 01:31:43,950
- Come here.
- What?

881
01:31:50,233 --> 01:31:51,427
Come here.

882
01:32:19,913 --> 01:32:23,383
The whole heating system in the bus
broke down. The whole bus is shot.

883
01:32:23,513 --> 01:32:25,583
You didn't say the tour
would be like this.

884
01:32:25,673 --> 01:32:27,186
The hell with it, come home.

885
01:32:27,273 --> 01:32:30,071
- You mean quit?
- No. You're sick.

886
01:32:30,353 --> 01:32:33,265
I'm really sorry.

887
01:32:34,193 --> 01:32:37,390
No, I'll stick it out.
But see what you can do about the bus.

888
01:32:38,633 --> 01:32:41,670
Look, take care of yourself,
and I'll call you tomorrow.

889
01:32:45,833 --> 01:32:47,425
Hello, baby.

890
01:32:48,953 --> 01:32:50,386
How you feeling?

891
01:32:50,593 --> 01:32:53,869
Listen, Holly's lining up a plane
to fly us to Fargo tonight.

892
01:32:54,833 --> 01:32:57,393
- All of us?
- Just the headliners.

893
01:32:57,713 --> 01:33:00,591
You better get with it,
or you'll be out in the cold.

894
01:33:00,713 --> 01:33:04,945
You catching my snow drift, man?
The word is out, all right?

895
01:33:40,913 --> 01:33:41,902
Hello.

896
01:33:41,993 --> 01:33:42,982
Hello, Bob.

897
01:33:44,113 --> 01:33:45,307
It's me, Ritchie.

898
01:33:48,313 --> 01:33:50,429
- What's wrong?
- What do you mean?

899
01:33:50,993 --> 01:33:53,063
I can barely hear you. You sound funny.

900
01:33:53,593 --> 01:33:55,185
I got a cold.

901
01:33:56,073 --> 01:33:57,301
Is Mom there?

902
01:33:57,393 --> 01:33:59,827
No, no one is here.
They all went to church.

903
01:34:00,073 --> 01:34:01,745
Just me and my daughter here.

904
01:34:02,193 --> 01:34:05,583
I was going to go, but you know how it is.

905
01:34:10,353 --> 01:34:12,025
Sure wish I was there.

906
01:34:12,633 --> 01:34:15,431
But you can't have your cake
and eat it, too.

907
01:34:17,233 --> 01:34:18,222
Listen, Bob.

908
01:34:20,473 --> 01:34:23,033
Why don't you fly to Chicago
and meet me?

909
01:34:23,273 --> 01:34:26,788
We can finish the tour together.
I need some family around me.

910
01:34:29,513 --> 01:34:31,344
Sure you want me around?

911
01:34:33,073 --> 01:34:35,906
After all that happened and
the shit I said?

912
01:34:36,113 --> 01:34:38,183
Those were your real feelings.

913
01:34:39,313 --> 01:34:41,190
We're still brothers, aren't we?

914
01:34:49,033 --> 01:34:50,148
You still there?

915
01:34:52,273 --> 01:34:54,503
Yeah, cabron, I'm still here.

916
01:34:55,833 --> 01:34:57,425
And I'm still your brother.

917
01:35:00,153 --> 01:35:01,142
All right, man.

918
01:35:02,633 --> 01:35:04,066
I'll see you in Chicago.

919
01:35:06,273 --> 01:35:07,706
Later, alligator.

920
01:35:25,273 --> 01:35:27,184
Look what just rolled in.

921
01:35:30,113 --> 01:35:31,068
It's cold.

922
01:35:32,193 --> 01:35:33,865
Ritchie, here's the situation.

923
01:35:34,393 --> 01:35:36,065
I heard how you feel about flying.

924
01:35:36,393 --> 01:35:38,543
I didn't think you'd be interested.

925
01:35:38,833 --> 01:35:42,109
It's between Tommy and you.
I'll toss this coin.

926
01:35:42,513 --> 01:35:46,984
Whoever wins will ride in this plane
and will sleep in a warm bed tonight.

927
01:35:47,193 --> 01:35:50,629
Whoever loses
will freeze his ass off on the bus.

928
01:35:52,993 --> 01:35:54,108
Heads!

929
01:35:56,233 --> 01:35:57,348
Heads it is.

930
01:35:57,593 --> 01:35:59,663
Alright. Ritchie, let's fly!

931
01:35:59,753 --> 01:36:03,268
Allsup, back on the bus. Have a good ride.
We'll see you in North Dakota.

932
01:36:03,353 --> 01:36:04,308
Sorry, Tommy.

933
01:36:04,793 --> 01:36:07,148
The first coin toss I ever won.

934
01:36:07,553 --> 01:36:09,145
Come on, let's go.

935
01:36:12,233 --> 01:36:14,701
Jesus. You look like the Three Stooges.

936
01:36:27,473 --> 01:36:29,941
Ritchie, relax. Everything's cool.

937
01:36:31,833 --> 01:36:34,393
The sky belongs to the stars, right?

938
01:37:14,713 --> 01:37:17,352
We interrupt this program
to bring you this bulletin.

939
01:37:17,793 --> 01:37:21,342
Four persons, three identified as
nationally famous rock 'n' roll singers...

940
01:37:21,793 --> 01:37:26,264
...died early today in a plane crash,
five miles north of Clear Lake, Iowa.

941
01:37:26,393 --> 01:37:28,623
Buddy Holly, 22, of Lubbock, Texas.

942
01:37:28,833 --> 01:37:31,791
Ritchie Valens, 17,
of Los Angeles, California.

943
01:37:32,193 --> 01:37:36,505
And J.P. Richardson, 29, of Louisiana,
known professionally as The Big Bopper.

944
01:37:37,753 --> 01:37:39,983
Did you hear? Did you hear...

945
01:37:40,073 --> 01:37:42,303
...what the radio said about Ritchie?

946
01:37:42,753 --> 01:37:44,311
Are you sure he said Ritchie?

947
01:37:45,473 --> 01:37:48,351
Oh, my God! What about Connie?

948
01:37:57,513 --> 01:37:59,105
What is it? What's the matter?

949
01:37:59,913 --> 01:38:01,744
You'd better sit down, Donna.

950
01:38:05,233 --> 01:38:07,349
We understand Holly chartered the plane...

951
01:38:07,433 --> 01:38:10,789
...because the tour bus
had broken down several times...

952
01:38:11,313 --> 01:38:13,065
...and had no heating system.

953
01:38:18,833 --> 01:38:21,791
The youngest of the three stars
killed in the crash was Valens.

954
01:38:22,193 --> 01:38:25,151
At 17, this youngster
from Pacoima, California...

955
01:38:25,233 --> 01:38:28,305
...won a place at the top of the charts
with his hits, Donna...

956
01:38:28,393 --> 01:38:30,702
...La Bamba and Come On, Let's Go.

957
01:38:31,393 --> 01:38:33,065
Valens was still in high school...

958
01:38:33,153 --> 01:38:35,223
...when he was signed to the Del-Fi label.

959
01:38:35,833 --> 01:38:37,789
And just a brief eight months later...

960
01:38:38,593 --> 01:38:40,072
...Ritchie Valens is gone.

961
01:38:44,393 --> 01:38:45,985
Not Ritchie.

962
01:38:47,233 --> 01:38:48,825
Not my Ritchie!

963
01:39:41,993 --> 01:39:44,029
