00:00What do you think about Weldon Nash?
00:05The man hasn't written anything in 20 years, he's just not interested in writing.
00:08Well, I expect you to make him interested.
00:12Aspiring writer Jeremy Taylor has come to Italy in search of a legendary author.
00:18Are you a reporter?
00:19I'm an editor with Pierce Learner Publishing.
00:21That's even worse.
00:22The last editor who came here, he chased down to the water with an axe.
00:25But he's finding out.
00:27You made your pitch.
00:28I'm not interested.
00:29I'm not finished.
00:30Yes, you are.
00:30That writers can be rude.
00:36Unpredictable.
00:37It's obvious that you just won't go away.
00:43And totally impossible.
00:45Don't you feel it?
00:46Feel what?
00:48Oh, my God.
00:49Why?
00:52I know that you want to write, Weldon.
00:54Of course he wants to write.
00:56Then why doesn't he?
00:57Because he's afraid.
00:58The world isn't going to stop spinning if there isn't another Weldon Parish novel.
01:01You're right.
01:01But maybe yours will start again.
01:05Why do you want him to write so bad?
01:06To have the talent to instill those kind of feelings in other people as a gift.
01:09You should have spoken to him like that.
01:11Now in the most romantic place on earth.
01:14Your daughter is a wonderful girl.
01:16Describe what you mean.
01:17Sunlight frames her body while the wind dances gently through her hair.
01:21A place that doesn't call out softly beckons.
01:24He will discover the gift of friendship.
01:28Do you find that a lot of creative people are crazy?
01:31There are thousands of writers and artists.
01:33Most of them, the dreams will never come true.
01:35You have to be crazy.
01:36And the promise of a new beginning.
01:39I believe that each of us are predestined to walk the path in life.
01:44While this path, we miss others.
01:47And through knowing them, we change their lives.
01:51Harvey Keitel, Joshua Jackson, Claire Fellani, and Giancarlo Giannini.
01:57Why did you come?
01:58That's a new experience.
02:00I think I've got new experiences lately.
