Closer

Larry:
I know who you are. I love you. I love everything about you that hurts.

Larry:
I'll pay you.

Alice:
I don't need your money.

Larry:
You have my money.

Alice:
Thank you.

Anna:
We do everything that people who have sex do!

Larry:
Do you enjoy sucking him off?

Anna:
Yes!

Larry:
You like his cock?

Anna:
I love it!

Larry:
You like him coming in your face?

Anna:
Yes!

Larry:
What does it taste like?

Anna:
It tastes like you but sweeter!

Larry:
That's the spirit. Thank you. Thank you for your honesty. Now f*** off and die, you f***ed up slag.

Anna:
Why is the sex so important?

Larry:
Because I'm a f***ing caveman!

Larry:
I'm Larry, the doctor.

Anna:
Hello, doctor Larry.

Larry:
Feel free to call me The Sultan.

Dan:
Didn't fancy my sandwiches?

Alice:
Don't eat fish.

Dan:
Why not?

Alice:
Fish piss in the sea.

Dan:
So do children.

Alice:
Don't eat children either.

Dan:
It's not safe out there.

Alice:
Oh, and it's safe in here?

Customs Officer:
Welcome back, Miss Jones.

Alice:
Thank you.

Dan:
I love you, and I need a piss.

Dan:
I fell in love with her, Alice.

Alice:
Oh, as if you had no choice? There's a moment, there's always a moment, ?I can do this, I can give into this, or I can resist it?, and I don't know when your moment was, but I bet there was one.

Larry:
Yes, I've seen her naked. No, I did not f*** her.

Larry:
Oh, by the way, Dan...

Dan:
Yes?

Larry:
?I did sleep with Alice.

Larry:
Tell me your name.

Alice:
Thank you. My name is Jane.

Larry:
No, not that, your real name.

Alice:
Thank you. My name is Jane.

Larry:
Your real name! Tell me your real name! I know your name is Alice! Throws down the rest of his money

Alice:
Thank you. My real name is regular, old, plain Jane.

Alice:
What's your work?

Dan:
I'm sort of... journalist.

Alice:
What sort?

Dan:
I write obituaries.

Alice:
Who was your last boyfriend?

Anna:
My husband.

Alice:
Was he English?

Anna:
Very.

Anna:
I don't kiss strange men.

Dan:
Neither do I.

Anna:
I'm sorry you're...

Larry:
Don't say it! Don't you f***ing say you're too good for me. I am, but don't say it.

Dan:
I want Anna back.

Larry:
She's made her choice.

Dan:
I owe you an apology. I fell in love with her. My intention was not to make you suffer.

Larry:
So where's the apology? Ya c*nt.

Dan:
I apologize. If you love her you'll let her go so she can be happy.

Larry:
She doesn't want to be happy.

Dan:
Everybody wants to be happy.

Larry:
Depressives don't. They want to be unhappy to confirm they're depressed. If they were happy they couldn't be depressed anymore. They'd have to go out into the world and live. Which can be depressing.

Alice:
I don't love you anymore. Goodbye.

Dan:
This will hurt.

Alice:
Lying is the most fun a girl can have without taking her clothes off... but it's better if you do.

Larry:
Dan, I lied to you. I really did f*** Alice. I'm sorry I had to tell you, but I'm just not big enough to forgive you, Buster.

Dan:
When I get back, please tell me the truth.

Alice:
Why?

Dan:
Because I'm addicted to it. Because without it, we're animals. Trust me.

Alice:
I don't want to lie. I can't tell the truth. So it's over.

Dan:
At six, we stand round the computer and read the next day's page, make final changes, put in a few euphemisms to amuse ourselves...

Alice:
Such as?

Dan:
?He was a convivial fellow? - meaning he was an alcoholic. ?He valued his privacy? - gay. ?He enjoyed his privacy? - raging queen.

Alice:
What would my euphemism be?

Dan:
She was... disarming.

Alice:
That's not a euphemism.

Dan:
Yes, it is.

Alice:
So you're Anna's boyfriend.

Larry:
A princess *can* kiss a toad.

Alice:
Frog.

Larry:
Toad.

Alice:
Frog.

Larry:
Toad. Frog. Lobster. They're all the same.

Larry:
So Anna tell me your bloke wrote a book. Any good?

Alice:
Of course.

Larry:
It's about you isn't it?

Alice:
Some of me.

Larry:
Oh? What did he leave out?

Alice:
The truth.

Dan:
So, he's a dermatologist. Can you get more boring than that?

Anna:
Obituarist?

Dan:
Failed novelist, please.

Alice:
I'm not a whore.

Larry:
I wouldn't pay.

Larry:
There's a girl out there who calls herself Venus, what's her real name?

Alice:
Pluto.

Dan:
You think love it simple. You think the heart is like a diagram.

Larry:
You've ever seen a human heart? It looks like a fist, wrapped in blood!

Anna:
Don't stop loving me. I can see it draining out of you. It's me, remember? It was a stupid thing to do and it meant nothing. If you love me enough, you'll forgive me.

Alice:
Where is this love? I can't see it, I can't touch it. I can't feel it. I can hear it. I can hear some words, but I can't do anything with your easy words.

Larry:
You don't know the first thing about love, because you don't understand compromise.

Larry:
You still pissing about on the net?

Dan:
Not recently.

Larry:
I wanted to kill you.

Dan:
I thought you wanted to f*** me.

Larry:
Don't get lippy.

Larry:
Why didn't you just tell me the second I walked through the door?

Anna:
I was scared.

Larry:
You're a coward, you spoiled b*tch.

Dan:
You've ruined my life.

Anna:
You'll get over it.

Larry:
Are you flirting with me?

Alice:
Maybe.

Larry:
Are you allowed to flirt with me?

Alice:
Sure.

Larry:
Really?

Alice:
No, I'm not. I'm breaking all the rules.

Larry:
You're mocking me!

Alice:
Why isn't love enough?

Larry:
Are you leaving me? Because of this? Why?

Anna:
Dan.

Larry:
Cupid? He's our joke.

Anna:
I've been hit before.

Larry:
Not by me!

Dan:
Do you have any children?

Anna:
No.

Dan:
Would you like some?

Anna:
Yes, but not today.

Alice:
Is it because she's successful?

Dan:
No. It's because... she doesn't need me.

Dan:
You came to, you focused on me, you said, Hello, stranger.

Alice:
What a FLOOZY!

Larry:
You think because you don't love us, or desire us, or even like us, you think you've won.

Alice:
It's not a war.

Anna:
I don't want trouble.

Dan:
I'm not trouble.

Anna:
You're taken.

Dan:
I've got to see you.

Anna:
Tough.

Dan:
You... KISSED me!

Anna:
What are you - TWELVE?

Dan:
What's so great about the truth? Try lying for a change, it's the currency of the world.

Alice:
Hello, stranger.

Larry:
What does your c*nt taste like?

Alice:
Heaven.

Alice:
Look at your little eyes...

Dan:
I can't see my little eyes.

Larry:
He's very pretty.

Alice:
She's... very tall.

Dan:
What were you doing in New York?

Alice:
You know...

Dan:
Well, no, I don't. What were you... studying?

Alice:
Stripping.

Larry:
You shouldn't smoke.

Alice:
F*** off.

Larry:
I'm a doctor. I'm supposed to say things like that.

Dan:
I saw this face, this vision; the moment you stepped into the road. It was the moment of my life.

Alice:
This is the moment of your life.

Dan:
You were perfect.

Alice:
I still am.

Alice:
Do you still fancy me?

Dan:
Of course.

Alice:
You're lying. I've been you.

Larry:
Tell me.

Anna:
No.

Larry:
I treat you like a whore?

Anna:
Sometimes...

Larry:
Why would that be?

Anna:
I haven't even seen you for a year.

Dan:
Yes you have...

Anna:
Only because you stalk me outside my studio.

Dan:
I never stalk, I lurk. and when I'm not there, you look for me.

Anna:
How do you know if you are not there?

Dan:
Because I am there, lurking... from a distance.

Alice:
I hate you.

Dan:
I'm sorry.

Alice:
Irrelevant!

Larry:
I want you to tell me your name. [throws down a note]

Alice:
Thank you. My name is Jane.

Larry:
Your real name. [throws down another note]

Alice:
Thank you. My real name is Jane.

Larry:
Careful. [throws down another note]

Alice:
Thank you. Still Jane.

Larry:
I've got about another five-hundred quid here. Why don't I just give you all this money? [throws down more money and holds some up to her face] And you tell me what your real name is, Alice.

Alice:
I promise. [Larry throws down the rest of the money] Thank you, my real name is plain Jane Jones.

Larry:
I may be rich, but I'm not stupid.

Alice:
What a shame, Doc, I love them rich and stupid.

Larry:
Don't you f*** around with me!

Alice:
F*** me.

Dan:
Again? We have to get up at 6.

Alice:
How can one man be so endlessly disappointing?

Dan:
That's my charm.

Dan:
I don't wanna hurt you.

Alice:
So why are you?

Alice:
It's a lie. It's a bunch of sad strangers photographed beautifully, and... all the glittering a**holes who appreciate art say it's beautiful 'cause that's what they wanna see. But the people in the photos are sad, and alone... But the pictures make the world seem beautiful, so... the exhibition is reassuring which makes it a lie, and everyone loves a big fat lie.

Alice:
No one will love you as much as I do. Why isn't love enough?

Alice:
Yes, I would have loved you... forever. Now, please go.

Alice:
I'm a waif.

Alice:
I've been you.

Alice:
You never leave someone you love

Dan:
I'm your stranger, jump!

Dan:
You think love is simple. You think the heart is like a diagram.

Dan:
Deception is brutal. I'm not pretending otherwise.

Anna:
He tastes like you, but sweeter!

Anna:
Don't raise your eye brows. It makes you look smug.

Anna:
You look like the cat that got the cream. Stop licking yourself.

Anna:
I'm not a thief Alice.

Larry:
[speaking to Anna] You'd be my whore. And in return I will pay you with your liberty.

Larry:
Have you ever seen a human heart?! It looks like a fist wrapped in blood - go f*** yourself! You writer! You liar!

Larry:
That's the spirit. Thank you. Thank you for your honesty. Now f*** off and die, you f***ed up slag.

Larry:
I slept with someone in New York. A whore. I'm sorry.
