Neruda movie plot
-
Álvaro Jara: What you want is a great escape. Yes?
Pablo Neruda: I won't play the fascists' game. I'll become their worst nightmare. In order to do that, I need to be a popular giant.
Álvaro Jara: You can't do that.
Pablo Neruda: I already have.
Álvaro Jara: No, you can't. People would say you used this persecution to become a saint. That we were never actually oppressed. That we like to play the victim. That we like to suffer. But they're killing us, for real. Look. I only ask you to be a bit more humble. Good luck on your journey.

Delia del Carril: [to Neruda] Being with you is beautiful. It's like living on a tree-lined street.
