EX-BEATLE 3
REEL TWO
Dylan: (Looking increasingly tired and
distressed) I wanna go back home. I
wanna go back home, man, see a baseball
game, all-night TV. I come from a land
of paradise, man.
Lennon: (In thick Northern accent, very
sarcastically) Sounds great.
R. Stevie: OK!
Dylan: Well, I could make it sound so
great that you wouldn't have the
capacity to speak.
(Lennon is silent)
Dylan: (No longer "acting") Hey, I'm
very sick, man. I'll be glad when this
is over, 'cos I'm getting very sick
here.
Lennon: With the tremors?
Dylan: Are you getting sick here?
(Pennebaker leans out of the limo and
shoots Dylan through the window) Is it
pouring yet? Hey, that's a good shot,
but why don't you bring it back in 'cos
it's cold. (He scowls, then groans,
struck by a wave of nausea) Aw! How far
are we from the hotel, Tom?
Tom: Five minutes.
Dylan: Oh, wow.
R. Stevie: Ooh.
Lennon: Permission to land, Tom.
Dylan: Oh God, I don't wanna get sick
here. (Head in hands) What if I vomit
into the camera? I've done just about
everything else into that camera, man, I
might just vomit into it.
Pennebaker: It'd make a nice ending,
wouldn't it? Cooking With Dylan we'll
call it.
Dylan: But I never throw up. (Gallantly
attempting to regain composure) So tell
me John, how long have you had a
partnership with Macy's?
Lennon: The Macy Brothers themselves,
we've had a partnership of 13, 14 years
I guess.
Dylan: And you're a new cat, a new
youngster, from Canada, right?
Lennon: Canada, yes, rootin' tootin'
Quebec, you know.
R. Stevie: No.
Dylan: (Abandoning the improvisation)
Aw, I'm very sick. How far are we out of
town?
Tom: About ten minutes.
Dylan: Awww!
R. Stevie: Please!
Tom: Do you want to head back?
Dylan: Yeah! Hurry!
Bobby Neuwirth: (Affecting the voice of
the BBC World Service interviewer in
Don't Look Back) In approximately
fifteen seconds from now BBC2 going on
the air, in approximately fifteen
seconds from now, an interview with Mr
Dylan...Mr Dylan, you must remember me
from the Jamaicas, I went to school with
Bobby Babwebba Babbabably
Bawebbly...
Dylan: (Pleading) Aw, don't do it to me,
man.
Bobby Neuwirth: All the soul brothers
from the BBC will be there. The BBC good
guys are at the airport. The BBC bad
guys are waiting downtown for you when
you get there.
(Dylan looks ever more uncomfortable. He
removes his shades and rubs his
eyes.)
Lennon: Do you suffer from sore eyes,
groovy forehead, or curly hair? Take
Zimdon!
Dylan: Aw, no, man.
Lennon: Come, come, boy, it's only a
film. Come, come, pull yourself
together. Another few dollars, eh?
That'll get your head up. Come on, come
on, money, money!
Dylan: Haha! Huh! Where are you,
Tom?
Bobby Neuwirth: We're in Sherwood
forest, Rob. Friar Tuck.
Dylan: (Pleading, about to vomit into
camera) Please go back to the hotel.
R. Stevie: And...?
Tom: I'm on the way back now.
Bobby Neuwirth: What's the altitude in
here?
Tom: Two thousand feet.
