Subtitles from SHAR Studio's Youtube channel, transcribed and improved by Niffiwan, 2023.

The original translation seems to have been the version sent to international film festivals. Not everything was translated (in particular, none of the poems were). The new subtitles attempt to translate the poems as well, at least imperfectly (without attempting to rhyme, and sometimes making the phrasing more natural in English).

An alternative translation of "In Italy" can be found here.

1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000 RF Ministry of Culture Film Department and "DAGO" Studio 2 00:00:02,301 --> 00:00:04,301 present 3 00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:08,702 "A Cat and a Half" Sketches for a film based on literary works and drawings of Joseph Brodsky 4 00:00:19,503 --> 00:00:22,603 Once upon a time there was a little boy. And there was a city. 5 00:00:22,704 --> 00:00:24,900 The most beautiful city on the face of the earth. 6 00:00:25,001 --> 00:00:28,701 With an enormous grey river hanging over its deep bottom, 7 00:00:28,802 --> 00:00:31,602 just like the sky above the river itself. 8 00:00:31,803 --> 00:00:35,303 Along the river stood majestic palaces 9 00:00:35,404 --> 00:00:38,504 with wonderfully ornate facades. 10 00:00:52,705 --> 00:00:57,105 I always adhered to the idea that God is time, or at least that His Spirit is. 11 00:00:57,406 --> 00:00:59,506 If the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the water, 12 00:00:59,607 --> 00:01:01,507 the water is bound to reflect it. 13 00:01:01,658 --> 00:01:05,508 That's the reason of my weakness for water - for its folds, creases and patterns, 14 00:01:05,609 --> 00:01:07,909 and, since I come from the north, for its greyness. 15 00:01:08,010 --> 00:01:10,910 I simply think that water is the image of time. 16 00:01:11,011 --> 00:01:14,011 And we, I think, are partly synonymous with water. 17 00:01:16,262 --> 00:01:20,512 reflected in 1000s of square meters of silver sparkles, 18 00:01:20,863 --> 00:01:23,513 the city seems to be constantly photographed by the water, 19 00:01:23,764 --> 00:01:28,714 and the filmed footage, on a sunny day, looks like an archive of those blinding scenes. 20 00:01:37,015 --> 00:01:41,315 So it doesn't make sense to me to try to be consecutive here. 21 00:01:41,666 --> 00:01:47,866 Life never looked to me like a set of clearly marked transitions; rather, it snowballs. 22 00:02:08,167 --> 00:02:10,167 Now look, here's a cat, right? A cat! 23 00:02:10,318 --> 00:02:13,668 He doesn't give a damn whether "Pamyat" society exists, 24 00:02:13,769 --> 00:02:16,069 or the propaganda department of the Central Comittee. 25 00:02:16,170 --> 00:02:19,970 Also, he doesn't care about the President of the United States. 26 00:02:21,471 --> 00:02:23,671 Am I any worse than the cat? 27 00:02:29,172 --> 00:02:31,972 Akhmatova's neighbours had a cat - 28 00:02:33,973 --> 00:02:36,273 a huge, red, exceptionally noisy tom. 29 00:02:36,374 --> 00:02:41,674 She would say: "You know, it is not just a cat, it is a cat and a half." 30 00:02:46,075 --> 00:02:52,675 And sometimes she would say: "Doesn't it seem to you that Joseph is very much like it?" 31 00:02:58,926 --> 00:03:02,976 By the way, I even dubbed several animated films. 32 00:03:03,077 --> 00:03:04,877 Whose part? 33 00:03:06,078 --> 00:03:07,978 Try to guess... 34 00:03:13,679 --> 00:03:15,829 a cat and a half 35 00:03:15,980 --> 00:03:17,730 JOSEPH BRO 36 00:03:17,731 --> 00:03:22,231 JOSEPH BRODSKY 37 00:03:22,332 --> 00:03:25,632 SKETCHES 38 00:03:39,133 --> 00:03:42,533 I remember one day - the day I had to leave after a month in Venice. 39 00:03:42,684 --> 00:03:46,534 I had just had lunch in some small trattoria, grilled fish a half a bottle of wine. 40 00:03:46,635 --> 00:03:52,485 And squinting at the sun I suddenly felt: I am a cat. A cat that has just had fish. 41 00:03:52,586 --> 00:03:55,436 Had anyone adressed me at that moment, I would have meowed. 42 00:03:55,537 --> 00:03:57,837 I was absolutely beastly happy. 43 00:03:58,038 --> 00:04:03,638 I must have been a cat in a past life. And I would like to remain one in my next one. 44 00:04:30,789 --> 00:04:33,139 Hullo. Is that you, Kitty? 45 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:35,640 What have I had for lunch? 46 00:04:35,741 --> 00:04:40,641 Turkey and rice, some fish and strawberries and cream for dessert. 47 00:04:47,892 --> 00:04:51,042 In May, 1972 they suggested that I should leave the country. 48 00:04:51,143 --> 00:04:53,343 They gave me only a few days to pack. 49 00:04:53,444 --> 00:04:56,000 They don't generally make such offers in Russia, and if they do, 50 00:04:56,101 --> 00:04:58,001 it means just one thing: 51 00:04:58,402 --> 00:05:02,902 I think no one is delighted being thrown out of his home. 52 00:05:03,003 --> 00:05:07,153 But however you leave it, it is still your home. 53 00:05:07,254 --> 00:05:11,104 Masya, go on the balcony with Osya. I'll take a photo to remember you by. 54 00:05:11,355 --> 00:05:13,555 And then, you can take one of us. 55 00:05:16,106 --> 00:05:20,106 Come on, Masya, shoot: taxi's waiting, the cat's fretting. 56 00:05:20,207 --> 00:05:24,000 - Os'ka, stop scratching... - Os'ka, be a good boy, keep still... 57 00:05:46,101 --> 00:05:48,401 This is one of my first photos. 58 00:05:48,552 --> 00:05:52,802 My father took it when we were living as evacuees in Tcherepovets. 59 00:05:52,953 --> 00:05:56,203 I've never forgotten that I am the son of a photographer 60 00:05:56,304 --> 00:05:59,404 and that my memory simply develops a film. 61 00:06:02,355 --> 00:06:07,405 In the same way that others mark their child's growth in pencil marks on a door frame, 62 00:06:07,606 --> 00:06:13,406 every year on my birthday my father took me out to our balcony and photographed me there. 63 00:06:13,507 --> 00:06:16,307 The background was usually this square - 64 00:06:16,408 --> 00:06:20,608 The Cathedral of the Lord's Transfiguration of all the Guards 65 00:06:22,209 --> 00:06:27,009 I can still see - on the arm-chair's back - my father's dark blue Navy tunic with its golden epaulettes... 66 00:06:27,410 --> 00:06:29,560 ...on the chair there is my mother's kimono with its dragons. 67 00:06:30,061 --> 00:06:33,461 And "Una furtiva lagrima" in the air. 68 00:06:33,662 --> 00:06:36,362 My father brought those records from Shanghai. 69 00:06:53,613 --> 00:06:57,513 Good luck.

And long hair. 95 00:10:15,538 --> 00:10:20,188 And that wonderful Tarzan's cry that filled the air over every Russian town. 96 00:10:20,289 --> 00:10:23,739 We began to imitate Tarzan. That's how it started... 97 00:10:27,340 --> 00:10:30,000 And I daresay that the four seasons of Tarzan alone 98 00:10:30,100 --> 00:10:35,741 did more for de-Stalinization than all of Khrushchyov's speeches at the 20th Congress. 99 00:10:42,742 --> 00:10:45,442 Come down before you break your fool neck! 100 00:10:58,743 --> 00:10:59,743 Give it up! 101 00:10:59,744 --> 00:11:01,544 They will come and getcha! 102 00:11:02,795 --> 00:11:04,945 - Angel, we'd better go. - I'm not afraid. 103 00:11:04,946 --> 00:11:07,646 But that's a 200 foot dive!
