00:00:07,300 --> 00:00:09,218
[calm magical music plays]

2
00:00:13,848 --> 00:00:16,267
[Arnold] I think destiny
is what we make of it.

3
00:00:17,935 --> 00:00:19,854
You have to have the vision,

4
00:00:19,937 --> 00:00:23,357
and then if you follow that,
I think miracles can happen.

5
00:00:26,110 --> 00:00:29,030
So this is exactly what
my life has been about.

6
00:00:29,113 --> 00:00:32,325
I saw the peak of bodybuilding.
I climbed that peak.

7
00:00:32,867 --> 00:00:35,787
Then I saw the other peak.
The leading man.

8
00:00:35,870 --> 00:00:37,580
The movie star.

9
00:00:38,331 --> 00:00:41,459
And it reminds me of
this famous mountain climber,

10
00:00:41,542 --> 00:00:42,919
Edmund Hillary,

11
00:00:44,087 --> 00:00:46,631
who was the first man
to ever climb Mt. Everest.

12
00:00:50,510 --> 00:00:51,719
The press asked him,

13
00:00:51,803 --> 00:00:53,846
"What were you thinking about
when you looked around

14
00:00:53,930 --> 00:00:55,181
and you were up on this peak?"

15
00:00:56,265 --> 00:00:57,725
He said,

16
00:00:57,809 --> 00:00:59,977
"I all of a sudden saw another peak

17
00:01:00,728 --> 00:01:01,813
far away."

18
00:01:02,605 --> 00:01:05,316
"And I started planning my route."

19
00:01:05,399 --> 00:01:07,610
"How do I get up there to that peak?"

20
00:01:10,905 --> 00:01:12,782
In 1969,

21
00:01:13,282 --> 00:01:16,869
we found out that they were casting
Hercules in a movie.

22
00:01:16,953 --> 00:01:20,998
Oh my God. This is now my chance
to be another Reg Park.

23
00:01:22,250 --> 00:01:23,501
I was not ready for it.

24
00:01:23,584 --> 00:01:25,878
I didn't understand
half of what was in the script.

25
00:01:25,962 --> 00:01:30,550
It may not be entirely without merit,
but you wouldn't like it down there.

26
00:01:30,633 --> 00:01:31,968
Let me be the judge of that.

27
00:01:32,051 --> 00:01:35,138
I am tired of the same old faces,

28
00:01:35,221 --> 00:01:36,722
the same old things.

29
00:01:36,806 --> 00:01:38,516
I had never taken an acting lesson before.

30
00:01:38,599 --> 00:01:40,726
No man is superior to Hercules.

31
00:01:41,435 --> 00:01:43,521
-[voice actor] I'm Hercules.
-[captain] So you told me.

32
00:01:43,604 --> 00:01:45,439
[voice actor]
No mortal is superior to Hercules.

33
00:01:45,523 --> 00:01:48,860
They replaced my voice.
I couldn't speak English barely.

34
00:01:49,777 --> 00:01:54,282
They told me Americans want to hear
their idols talk like John Wayne,

35
00:01:54,365 --> 00:01:55,283
not like you.

36
00:01:56,325 --> 00:01:57,326
They changed my name

37
00:01:57,410 --> 00:02:00,329
from Arnold Schwarzenegger
to Arnold Strong.

38
00:02:00,913 --> 00:02:02,331
The movie came out,

39
00:02:02,415 --> 00:02:03,916
and it was

40
00:02:04,625 --> 00:02:06,002
not a hit at all.

41
00:02:10,506 --> 00:02:12,508
For five years, there was no offer

42
00:02:13,176 --> 00:02:14,177
for anything.

43
00:02:15,469 --> 00:02:18,139
So there was a lot of things
I had to learn,

44
00:02:18,222 --> 00:02:22,185
obstacles that I had to overcome,
including the biggest obstacle,

45
00:02:22,268 --> 00:02:25,313
when everyone says,
"No, it can't be done."

46
00:02:25,396 --> 00:02:26,731
[man] Why didn't you give up?

47
00:02:27,231 --> 00:02:30,318
Well, because my vision
didn't talk about giving up.

48
00:02:30,401 --> 00:02:32,361
My vision was climbing that mountain.

49
00:02:32,445 --> 00:02:33,446
[inspiration music plays]

50
00:02:33,529 --> 00:02:34,363
[man] Conan!

51
00:02:34,447 --> 00:02:35,781
What is best in life?

52
00:02:35,865 --> 00:02:38,618
[Arnold as Conan] Crush your enemies.
See them driven before you.

53
00:02:39,202 --> 00:02:41,704
And to hear
the lamentation of their women.

54
00:02:42,246 --> 00:02:43,956
[man] His artistry came

55
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,876
from being really original
about everything that he did.

56
00:02:46,959 --> 00:02:49,962
It wasn't just about popularity.
He made it cool.

57
00:02:50,046 --> 00:02:54,467
The most remarkable American success story
of any I know of.

58
00:02:54,550 --> 00:02:57,303
We pushed each other.
I wanted to push him off a cliff.

59
00:02:57,386 --> 00:03:00,806
Unfortunately, I didn't find one,
so I had to live with him.

60
00:03:00,890 --> 00:03:02,767
Hasta la vista, baby.

61
00:03:06,729 --> 00:03:11,817
He's not a hollow version
of what one might think Arnold is.

62
00:03:11,901 --> 00:03:15,071
It's easy to diss him
as this over-the-hill '80s action star,

63
00:03:15,154 --> 00:03:16,489
but he's so much more than that.

64
00:03:17,114 --> 00:03:19,283

68
00:03:37,843 --> 00:03:38,678
Come here.

69
00:03:40,972 --> 00:03:42,181
You can read with me.

70
00:03:43,849 --> 00:03:45,810
Yeah. King in a castle.

71
00:03:46,727 --> 00:03:48,229
Typical line for me, huh?

72
00:03:50,481 --> 00:03:51,315
Right.

73
00:03:52,441 --> 00:03:54,568
Wow. Here we're gonna break in.

74
00:03:55,820 --> 00:03:57,405
It's a weird adjustment

75
00:03:57,488 --> 00:03:59,448
to go from bodybuilding

76
00:03:59,532 --> 00:04:00,783
to becoming an actor.

77
00:04:01,284 --> 00:04:02,576
[doorbell rings]

78
00:04:05,579 --> 00:04:06,580
I am Rico!

79
00:04:07,415 --> 00:04:08,582
Oh, yes.

80
00:04:09,250 --> 00:04:10,501
Where we do it?

81
00:04:11,002 --> 00:04:12,211
What?

82
00:04:12,295 --> 00:04:13,921
Here or in the bedroom?

83
00:04:14,005 --> 00:04:16,257
Oh. Oh, here. Here. Here. Here.

84
00:04:17,466 --> 00:04:20,761
[Arnold] In the '70s,
the agents and the managers

85
00:04:20,845 --> 00:04:22,596
and the studio executives,

86
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:26,392
they were very clear when they said to me,
"You're way too big."

87
00:04:26,892 --> 00:04:29,937
"You're too muscular.
This is not gonna play now."

88
00:04:30,021 --> 00:04:32,690
"Forget about that 250-pound
muscular body."

89
00:04:32,773 --> 00:04:34,066
[laughs]

90
00:04:36,777 --> 00:04:37,653
Hey!

91
00:04:37,737 --> 00:04:40,281
You think I'm funny, huh?
You think I'm funny!

92
00:04:40,364 --> 00:04:41,657
Well, you've gotta admit.

93
00:04:41,741 --> 00:04:45,077
I mean, when you do that
you look like some big ape or something.

94
00:04:45,161 --> 00:04:45,995
Stop that!

95
00:04:46,579 --> 00:04:47,955
"Let's just keep going."

96
00:04:48,039 --> 00:04:51,042
"Let's work on the substance.
Let's work on the acting ability."

97
00:04:51,125 --> 00:04:52,668
"Your moment will come."

98
00:04:52,752 --> 00:04:54,754
["Am I the Same Girl" plays]

99
00:05:01,177 --> 00:05:04,138
[Arnold] By that time,
I have now retired from bodybuilding.

100
00:05:04,889 --> 00:05:08,851
My friend Charles Gaines told me
that he's written this novel, Stay Hungry.

101
00:05:08,934 --> 00:05:11,937
That they're wanting to adapt it
to a screenplay.

102
00:05:12,021 --> 00:05:14,315
Stay Hungry was written for a bodybuilder.

103
00:05:14,398 --> 00:05:17,193
So I felt like
I'm in the right place at the right time.

104
00:05:20,613 --> 00:05:21,447
[man] In the novel,

105
00:05:21,530 --> 00:05:24,742
I go about defining
what it means to stay hungry.

106
00:05:24,825 --> 00:05:27,244
Never being satisfied with where you are.

107
00:05:27,328 --> 00:05:31,123
And the minute Arnold heard the phrase,
uh, he identified with it.

108
00:05:31,207 --> 00:05:34,168
It was his credo. It was the way he lived.

109
00:05:34,251 --> 00:05:36,670
No matter how many successes he's had,

110
00:05:36,754 --> 00:05:39,006
he's always hungry for something more.

111
00:05:40,341 --> 00:05:42,593
Bob Rafelson bought it to make a movie.

112
00:05:43,344 --> 00:05:45,471
Bob and I wrote the script together.

113
00:05:46,180 --> 00:05:48,182
For the part of Joe Santo,

114
00:05:48,265 --> 00:05:52,269
you had to be convincingly
a great bodybuilder.

115
00:05:52,353 --> 00:05:56,440
I said, "Look, there's only one guy
who's gonna be right for this part,

116
00:05:56,524 --> 00:05:58,567
and that's Arnold Schwarzenegger."

117
00:05:58,651 --> 00:06:01,487
Bob said, "That's not gonna work.
He needs a voice coach."

118
00:06:01,570 --> 00:06:03,781
"He's still got too thick an accent."

119
00:06:03,864 --> 00:06:06,909
Arnold made it his job to convince Bob

120
00:06:06,992 --> 00:06:08,828
that he was right for the part.

121
00:06:09,620 --> 00:06:12,790
[Arnold] Bob Rafelson just did
Five Easy Pieces and Easy Rider.

122
00:06:12,873 --> 00:06:16,502
And he did a lot of famous movies.
He was a really hot director.

123
00:06:16,585 --> 00:06:18,838
He did not guarantee me the role.

124
00:06:19,797 --> 00:06:22,842
He said, "In a few months from now,
let's do a test."

125
00:06:23,342 --> 00:06:25,845
"In the meantime,
go to this acting class."

126
00:06:25,928 --> 00:06:26,762
[phone rings]

127
00:06:26,846 --> 00:06:28,889
[man] I got a call from Bob Rafelson.

128
00:06:28,973 --> 00:06:30,474
And he said he has an actor

129
00:06:30,558 --> 00:06:33,436
who has never really acted
dramatically before.

130
00:06:33,519 --> 00:06:35,062
"Would you work with him?"

131
00:06:36,272 --> 00:06:38,065
For the first six weeks,

132
00:06:38,149 --> 00:06:42,027
I found out everything I could
about Arnold's life.

133
00:06:42,611 --> 00:06:44,405
"Tell me about your father."

134
00:06:44,989 --> 00:06:46,824
"Tell me about your mother."

135
00:06:47,783 --> 00:06:51,495
"Tell me how it was
growing up in Austria."

136
00:06:52,121 --> 00:06:54,457
"Don't just talk about it.
I want to know what you experience

137
00:06:54,540 --> 00:06:56,834
when you talk about it. How do you feel?"

138
00:06:57,918 --> 00:07:02,006
[Arnold] I realized that there are
certain things that I'm missing in me.

139
00:07:02,089 --> 00:07:06,427
I guarded myself so much,
there are no emotions really there.

140
00:07:06,510 --> 00:07:09,889
Or they're there and hidden away
and they have to be brought out

141
00:07:09,972 --> 00:07:11,974
in order to be a good actor.

142
00:07:12,057 --> 00:07:14,560
As soon as my emotions bother my training,

143
00:07:14,643 --> 00:07:16,437
I turn them off.

144
00:07:17,313 --> 00:07:21,108
I have to let my mind know
that it is okay to have them come out.

145
00:07:23,569 --> 00:07:26,739
When I went to the office of Bob Rafelson,

146
00:07:26,822 --> 00:07:30,117
in the middle of the scene,
Bob says, "My hair stood up."

147
00:07:31,076 --> 00:07:32,328
"I got goosebumps."

148
00:07:32,411 --> 00:07:33,662
"You're in."

149
00:07:33,746 --> 00:07:35,289
[fanfare plays]

150
00:07:36,916 --> 00:07:38,501
[applause]

151
00:07:42,713 --> 00:07:44,673
[indistinct chatter]

152
00:07:44,757 --> 00:07:47,718
[Arnold] With the help
of Jeff Bridges and Sally Field,

153
00:07:47,801 --> 00:07:52,932
and with their intense interest to make me
shine and to make the movie work,

154
00:07:53,015 --> 00:07:55,726
they were at any given time
ready to rehearse with me.

155
00:07:55,809 --> 00:07:58,062
When are you gonna take that mask off?

156
00:07:58,729 --> 00:08:01,065
[Arnold] So when you work
with professionals like that,

157
00:08:01,148 --> 00:08:02,733
it makes you shine too.

158
00:08:02,816 --> 00:08:04,693
I don't like being too comfortable.

159
00:08:05,736 --> 00:08:08,572
Once you get used to it,
it's hard to give up.

160
00:08:09,323 --> 00:08:10,741
I'd rather stay hungry.

161
00:08:12,993 --> 00:08:14,411
I was very excited,

162
00:08:14,495 --> 00:08:18,040
but Stay Hungry is not gonna come out
for a while.

163
00:08:18,624 --> 00:08:19,708
Now what do we do?

164
00:08:21,418 --> 00:08:24,296
Two months later, George Butler
and Charles Gaines came to me

165
00:08:24,380 --> 00:08:27,883
and said they wanted to do a documentary
about the world of bodybuilding

166
00:08:27,967 --> 00:08:29,301
called Pumping Iron.

167
00:08:29,802 --> 00:08:32,388
This is it. First slate, take one.

168
00:08:32,471 --> 00:08:33,430
[beep]

169
00:08:34,598 --> 00:08:37,893
I perform better in front of an audience.

170
00:08:37,977 --> 00:08:38,936
And so here you were,

171
00:08:39,019 --> 00:08:41,730
ten people did work
with the documentary crew.

172
00:08:41,814 --> 00:08:43,399
Then the cameras were in my face.

173
00:08:43,482 --> 00:08:45,401
So therefore, you had to perform harder.

174
00:08:45,901 --> 00:08:49,280
Pumping Iron and Arnold together,

175
00:08:49,363 --> 00:08:51,782
is what made bodybuilding what it is.

176
00:08:52,950 --> 00:08:56,370
It was the first thing that
introduced bodybuilding

177
00:08:56,453 --> 00:08:57,705
to the general public.

178
00:08:57,788 --> 00:09:01,834
And it also made Arnold more accepted
in the movie industry.

179
00:09:02,668 --> 00:09:06,297
That crossed over where people saw me
not as the muscle freak,

180
00:09:06,380 --> 00:09:07,881
but as a personality.

181
00:09:08,716 --> 00:09:12,261
-Lou, what do you think your chances are?
-[Lou] I'll lose, Arnold. You're the best.

182
00:09:12,344 --> 00:09:13,804
-Thank you.
-[Lou] You're welcome.

183
00:09:13,887 --> 00:09:18,142
[man] The wolf on the hill is not
as hungry as the wolf climbing the hill.

184
00:09:18,225 --> 00:09:19,602
-That's true.
-[man] See?

185
00:09:19,685 --> 00:09:22,396
He's not as hungry,
but when he wants the food, it's there.

186
00:09:22,479 --> 00:09:26,567
[Arnold] The greatest feeling
you can get in a gym is the pump.

187
00:09:26,650 --> 00:09:30,821
It's equal to me
as it is with a girl having sex

188
00:09:30,904 --> 00:09:31,947
and coming.

189
00:09:32,031 --> 00:09:33,574
It's the same thing.

00:09:34,074 --> 00:09:35,326

00:09:36,118 --> 00:09:37,786

30TH FESTIVAL INTERNATIONAL DU FILM

00:09:40,539 --> 00:09:44,251
At the film festival in Cannes,
Pumping Iron became a sensation.

194
00:09:44,877 --> 00:09:48,631
Hundreds of photographers following us.
And there was a standing ovation.

206
00:10:18,243 --> 00:10:21,705
[Arnold] I was hanging out

on the cover of magazines,

208
00:10:24,458 --> 00:10:25,626
and talk shows.

209
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:28,504
And then Stay Hungry came out.

210
00:10:29,213 --> 00:10:31,298

00:10:36,220 --> 00:10:39,890
It was very clear the next thing
I'm going to do is not just acting,

00:10:39,973 --> 00:10:42,893
but be a leading man in movies.

A lot of times,
people only pay attention to success.

220
00:11:02,371 --> 00:11:03,497
But the reality of it is,

221
00:11:03,580 --> 00:11:07,376
besides all this great success
that I enjoyed, it was a struggle.

222
00:11:08,585 --> 00:11:11,004
I did the movie called The Villain

223
00:11:11,088 --> 00:11:13,298
with Kurt Douglas and Ann-Margret.

224
00:11:13,382 --> 00:11:16,093

would you like to scrub my back?

227
00:11:19,638 --> 00:11:22,683
[Arnold] When the movie came out,
one of the reviews said

228
00:11:22,766 --> 00:11:26,270
the horse had better facial expressions
than Schwarzenegger.

229
00:11:26,353 --> 00:11:28,355
[neighs]

230
00:11:30,190 --> 00:11:31,734
I was so frustrated.

231
00:11:32,651 --> 00:11:35,487
It was very difficult to find an agent.

232
00:11:36,155 --> 00:11:37,906
They all kind of had the same rap.

233
00:11:37,990 --> 00:11:39,825
"We cannot sell you right now."

234
00:11:39,908 --> 00:11:41,535
"This is the '70s."

235
00:11:41,618 --> 00:11:44,204
"It's Dustin Hoffman that is in."

236
00:11:44,705 --> 00:11:46,957
"Al Pacino is in."

237
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:50,377
"These are all little guys.
They're totally the opposite of you."

238
00:11:52,963 --> 00:11:55,299
Luckily, I didn't need the money.

239
00:11:56,341 --> 00:11:58,927
Joe Weider,
after he brought me to America,

240
00:11:59,011 --> 00:12:02,097
taught me real estate
is one of the greatest investments.

241
00:12:02,181 --> 00:12:04,850
I bought my first apartment building
in the '70s,

242
00:12:04,933 --> 00:12:06,393
when there was huge inflation.

243
00:12:06,477 --> 00:12:09,605
And I knew right away
what the potential was.

244
00:12:10,189 --> 00:12:13,901
Then I started buying office buildings
on Main Street in Santa Monica.

245
00:12:14,610 --> 00:12:17,154
I became a millionaire in the '70s

246
00:12:17,237 --> 00:12:19,448
before I ever took off
in the movie business.

247
00:12:19,531 --> 00:12:23,160
I did not have to take the bullshit roles,

248
00:12:23,243 --> 00:12:24,870
to be a character actor.

249
00:12:24,953 --> 00:12:27,623
"What the fuck?
I don't want to be a character actor."

250
00:12:27,706 --> 00:12:30,501
"I want to the leading man."

251
00:12:31,001 --> 00:12:32,419
"I want to be the star."

252
00:12:33,128 --> 00:12:36,298
Just because there is difficulty,
just because there's an obstacle…

253
00:12:36,381 --> 00:12:38,217
I don't care what it takes.

254
00:12:38,300 --> 00:12:41,720
I eventually will be up there with them.

255
00:12:42,471 --> 00:12:44,181
So I said to myself,

256
00:12:44,264 --> 00:12:47,059
"Those things that they say
are an obstacle,

257
00:12:47,142 --> 00:12:50,521
I'm gonna make them
not a liability but an asset."

Partially live
from the West Side Tennis Club once again,

262
00:13:01,573 --> 00:13:04,827
this is the Robert F. Kennedy
pro celebrity tennis tournament.

263
00:13:04,910 --> 00:13:05,828
And boy, do I ache.

264
00:13:06,995 --> 00:13:08,539
[Arnold] Ethel Kennedy called me

265
00:13:09,289 --> 00:13:12,417
and said,
"Bobby Shriver brought your name up

266
00:13:12,501 --> 00:13:15,379
for the Robert F. Kennedy
tennis tournament."

267
00:13:15,462 --> 00:13:16,421
"You will be fantastic."

268
00:13:16,505 --> 00:13:19,258
"You have the right personality
to entertain everyone. Would you come?"

269
00:13:19,341 --> 00:13:23,887
I said, "Ethel, I've never had
a tennis racket in my hand."

270
00:13:24,513 --> 00:13:27,683
Everything I did,
I always double-checked with my publicist,

271
00:13:27,766 --> 00:13:30,269
who says, "Ethel Kennedy called you?"

272
00:13:30,352 --> 00:13:31,645
"Holy shit."

273
00:13:31,728 --> 00:13:33,230
"Go. Accept it."

274
00:13:35,399 --> 00:13:38,819
Before the actual tennis tournament,
there was a big party.

275
00:13:39,361 --> 00:13:41,572
All of the Kennedys were there.

276
00:13:42,990 --> 00:13:46,743
Eunice came up to me and says,
"Oh, hi, it's so good to have you here."

277
00:13:46,827 --> 00:13:49,788
"By the way,
this is my daughter, Maria Shriver."

278
00:13:50,664 --> 00:13:54,918
Then later on, when she says,
"So my daughter is really fond of you."

279
00:13:55,419 --> 00:13:57,546
I said, "Well, your daughter has
a really nice ass."

280
00:13:57,629 --> 00:13:59,423
I says, "I have to tell you that."

281
00:13:59,506 --> 00:14:01,008
Eunice said, "Thank you." [laughs]

282
00:14:02,009 --> 00:14:05,554
And then she walked away,
kind of like, "What the hell?"

283
00:14:05,637 --> 00:14:07,973
It was stupid to say.
I don't even know why I said it.

284
00:14:09,391 --> 00:14:11,852
Former Mr. Olympian, Mr. Universe,

285
00:14:11,935 --> 00:14:14,813
Arnold is now beset by frustration,

286
00:14:14,897 --> 00:14:17,733
tears the shirt off,
ready to renew the fight.

287
00:14:18,233 --> 00:14:20,944
When we are at
the actual tennis tournament,

288
00:14:21,028 --> 00:14:23,822
I could see
Maria looking at me the entire time.

289
00:14:24,489 --> 00:14:26,825
After it was over,
she and Caroline Kennedy

290
00:14:26,909 --> 00:14:28,952
came over and started chatting.

291
00:14:29,036 --> 00:14:33,248
Then Maria said, "I think you should come
to Hyannis Port with us tonight."

292
00:14:33,332 --> 00:14:38,128
I said, "The only thing is I have to
go back to get my clothes from the hotel."

293
00:14:38,211 --> 00:14:40,005
I said,
"I only have my tennis stuff here."

294
00:14:40,672 --> 00:14:43,342
"Are you crazy?
We all run around in shorts up there."

295
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:48,013
We left that night
with a private plane to Hyannis Port.

296
00:14:48,513 --> 00:14:52,351
I then go with her to the beach,
and now we swim out in the ocean.

297
00:14:53,226 --> 00:14:57,105
We climb into the boat,
run around with the boat in the bay.

298
00:14:57,689 --> 00:15:00,192
And so this is how crazy it was.

299
00:15:00,275 --> 00:15:03,779
And it was all about,
kind of like, "Let's test this guy."

300
00:15:05,572 --> 00:15:07,449
The next morning, on Sunday,

301
00:15:07,532 --> 00:15:10,494
everyone was rushing into my room
and says, "Are you ready? Are you ready?"

302
00:15:10,577 --> 00:15:11,995
"We're going to church!"

303
00:15:12,079 --> 00:15:14,831
I said, "What do you mean to church?
I have no clothes."

304
00:15:15,707 --> 00:15:19,211
At the church, Rose Kennedy was sitting
there in the front.

305
00:15:19,294 --> 00:15:22,214
You had to dress up.
Everyone was decked out, because Rose…

306
00:15:22,297 --> 00:15:25,300
I'm sitting there like a schmuck
with my tennis shorts on,

307
00:15:25,384 --> 00:15:27,636
my tennis shoes,
and with Bobby Shriver's shirt.

308
00:15:27,719 --> 00:15:29,513
So at least I have a shirt on.

309
00:15:32,099 --> 00:15:34,851
I really fell in love with Maria.

310
00:15:34,935 --> 00:15:36,520
Not because she was a Kennedy,

311
00:15:36,603 --> 00:15:39,606
but she just had
the extraordinary personality.

312
00:15:39,690 --> 00:15:42,401
I could see that little rebel in her.

313
00:15:43,402 --> 00:15:46,405
I wanted to escape from my home,
from Austria.

314
00:15:46,488 --> 00:15:49,950
She also wanted to escape.

315
00:15:51,034 --> 00:15:53,036
So that was kind of the beginning

316
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:54,287
of Maria and I.

317
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:02,170
The next year, I finally found one agent
willing to represent me.

318
00:16:02,254 --> 00:16:06,341
I gave the whole thing you gave me
to my lawyer, and he's looking at it…

319
00:16:06,425 --> 00:16:09,845
He told me, "You have an interview
with Dino De Laurentis."

320
00:16:09,928 --> 00:16:12,514
I mean,
he's the guy that has made 500 movies.

321
00:16:12,597 --> 00:16:14,683
He has Academy Awards and Golden Globes,

322
00:16:14,766 --> 00:16:16,309
so he was a real big shot.

323
00:16:16,810 --> 00:16:19,312
We went to his office,
and the first thing I see

324
00:16:19,396 --> 00:16:20,939
is this little guy

325
00:16:21,023 --> 00:16:23,275
sitting behind his massive desk.

326
00:16:23,358 --> 00:16:25,861
As he got up from his chair,
he didn't get much taller,

327
00:16:25,944 --> 00:16:28,196
and I realized he was really little.

328
00:16:28,697 --> 00:16:31,950
So I said, "Why does a little guy
need such a big desk?"

329
00:16:32,951 --> 00:16:34,911
And he immediately went nuts.

330
00:16:35,412 --> 00:16:36,413
"Ah!"

331
00:16:36,496 --> 00:16:39,332
"I cannot use you. You have an accent."

332
00:16:39,416 --> 00:16:43,587
"That's funny you say that," I said,
"because you have an accent too."

333
00:16:43,670 --> 00:16:44,921
"I barely can understand you."

334
00:16:45,505 --> 00:16:47,632
"Ah. Get him out of here."

335
00:16:48,133 --> 00:16:50,218
The door barely closes.

336
00:16:50,302 --> 00:16:52,596
My agent starts screaming at me.

337
00:16:52,679 --> 00:16:54,097
"Look at this, Arnold."

338
00:16:54,181 --> 00:16:58,435
"It was one minute and forty seconds."

339
00:16:59,061 --> 00:17:02,856
"It was the fastest meeting
I've ever had in Hollywood."

340
00:17:02,939 --> 00:17:05,609
"You had to open up your mouth."

341
00:17:07,277 --> 00:17:08,403
Later that year,

342
00:17:08,487 --> 00:17:11,656
Ed Pressman bought the rights
for Conan the Barbarian

343
00:17:11,740 --> 00:17:14,993
and fell in love with me
after having seen Pumping Iron.

I said, "Look, whoever it is,
he has to go and be totally unlike

517
00:25:59,350 --> 00:26:01,060
a human being."

518
00:26:01,144 --> 00:26:04,981
The way he steps on the motorcycle.
The way he runs. The way he gets up.

519
00:26:05,064 --> 00:26:08,359
Everything has to be
exactly like a machine.

520
00:26:09,319 --> 00:26:11,946
He says,
"Why don't you play the Terminator?"

521
00:26:12,030 --> 00:26:15,617
"You totally understand that character.
You are the machine."

522
00:26:16,326 --> 00:26:18,745
I said, "No, no, no,
I don't want to play villains."

523
00:26:18,828 --> 00:26:21,456
"The character only has 26 lines."

524
00:26:21,539 --> 00:26:23,249
I started fighting him about it,

525
00:26:23,333 --> 00:26:26,628
and he calmly just said,
"Well, think about it."

526
00:26:27,795 --> 00:26:30,673
I thought for three days,
then I called him back

527
00:26:30,757 --> 00:26:34,844
and I said, "Every time I reread it,
I visualize myself more and more

528
00:26:34,927 --> 00:26:36,429
playing Terminator."

529
00:26:36,512 --> 00:26:39,474
I told him I'm in,
and then we started prepping.

530
00:26:39,557 --> 00:26:41,434
[mysterious music plays]

531
00:26:50,068 --> 00:26:53,237
[Cameron] He understood
that this was exactly what he needed

532
00:26:53,321 --> 00:26:57,241
to counterweight
this massive brand-value that he had

533
00:26:57,325 --> 00:26:59,118
as "the body."

534
00:26:59,619 --> 00:27:02,622
This wasn't about the body.
This was about the face.

535
00:27:06,209 --> 00:27:08,169
[woman] It was truly just another job.

536
00:27:08,252 --> 00:27:11,381
I didn't think that
it was particularly greater

537
00:27:11,464 --> 00:27:12,924
than other scripts I'd read.

538
00:27:13,007 --> 00:27:14,425
I mean, really clueless.

539
00:27:14,509 --> 00:27:18,054
It was a very low budget,
and we were all rather new at it.

540
00:27:18,137 --> 00:27:20,473
I definitely had my doubts.

541
00:27:21,349 --> 00:27:25,019
By our snotty definition,
Arnold was a poser.

542
00:27:25,103 --> 00:27:27,730
Bodybuilder pretending to be an actor.

543
00:27:28,356 --> 00:27:29,190
Ah!

544
00:27:29,774 --> 00:27:31,442
[Linda] But, because I was curious,

545
00:27:31,526 --> 00:27:34,987
I went and stood
off to the sidelines watching Arnold.

546
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:38,157
[man] That Terminator is out there.

547
00:27:39,742 --> 00:27:41,494
It can't be bargained with.

548
00:27:41,577 --> 00:27:43,454
It can't be reasoned with.

549
00:27:44,205 --> 00:27:45,790
It doesn't feel pity

550
00:27:45,873 --> 00:27:48,459
or remorse or fear.

551
00:27:48,543 --> 00:27:52,296
And it absolutely will not stop ever

552
00:27:52,922 --> 00:27:54,382
until you are dead.

553
00:28:01,556 --> 00:28:04,892
[Linda] And I bought it.
The physicality and the stiffness

554
00:28:04,976 --> 00:28:07,687
and all of the things
that he was implementing.

555
00:28:07,770 --> 00:28:09,313
I was like, "Okay, this might work."

556
00:28:09,397 --> 00:28:10,857
[pager beeping]

557
00:28:13,067 --> 00:28:16,487
[Cameron] Sometime in the shoot,
we're doing this police station scene.

558
00:28:16,571 --> 00:28:18,364
I am a friend of Sarah Connor.

559
00:28:18,448 --> 00:28:20,450
I was told that she's here.
Could I see her, please?

560
00:28:20,533 --> 00:28:22,785
No, you can't see her.
She's making a statement.

561
00:28:22,869 --> 00:28:24,746
[Cameron] The line is, "I'll come back."

562
00:28:24,829 --> 00:28:27,457
It wasn't meant to be,
like, a big moment at all.

563
00:28:27,540 --> 00:28:31,586
It was literally meant to be,
on it's face, no problem.

564
00:28:31,669 --> 00:28:34,005
I'll come back. I'll come back.

565
00:28:34,088 --> 00:28:36,507
For some reason,
Arnold didn't say, "I'll come back."

566
00:28:36,591 --> 00:28:40,136
I said, "Well, just say 'I'll be back.'
Keep it simple."

567
00:28:40,219 --> 00:28:44,849
[Arnold] I said, "Jim, to me, it sounds
funny when I say, 'I'll be back.'"

568
00:28:45,349 --> 00:28:49,854
"It sounds much more machine-like
if I would say, 'I will be back.'"

569
00:28:49,937 --> 00:28:52,774
And he says, "Are you the writer?"
I said, "No."

570
00:28:52,857 --> 00:28:55,777
And he says,
"Don't tell me how to fucking write."

571
00:28:56,694 --> 00:28:57,862
I said, "Okay."

572
00:28:58,488 --> 00:28:59,822
"I'll be back."

573
00:28:59,906 --> 00:29:00,782
"Oh yeah, yeah, yeah!"

574
00:29:00,865 --> 00:29:03,034
"Oh my God, I got goosebumps.
It's fantastic."

575
00:29:04,035 --> 00:29:05,119
I'll be back.

576
00:29:08,247 --> 00:29:09,373
He was absolutely right.

577
00:29:09,457 --> 00:29:13,836
It became the most quoted movie line,
I think in the history of motion pictures.

578
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:17,048
So this just shows to you
who was right and who was wrong.

579
00:29:25,306 --> 00:29:28,559
[man] All I demand of a movie like this
is a lot of action, well-done,

580
00:29:28,643 --> 00:29:30,686
and a rooting interest,
somebody to care about.

581
00:29:30,770 --> 00:29:32,313
This movie provides both.

582
00:29:32,396 --> 00:29:34,565
It's got an awful lot of action,
people you care about.

583
00:29:34,649 --> 00:29:36,067
And it's got an ingenious plot.

584
00:29:36,150 --> 00:29:38,653
When I walked out of The Terminator,
at the end, mind you,

585
00:29:38,736 --> 00:29:40,446
I was thoroughly entertained.

586
00:29:41,197 --> 00:29:43,783
[Arnold] What is success
for box office-wise,

587
00:29:43,866 --> 00:29:45,993
doesn't mean that the critics like it.

588
00:29:46,077 --> 00:29:48,871
So to have Time Magazine,

589
00:29:48,955 --> 00:29:52,041
their critics,
pick it as one of the top ten movies

590
00:29:52,124 --> 00:29:53,209
was unheard of.

591
00:29:53,292 --> 00:29:55,294
It even freaked out Jim Cameron.

592
00:29:55,878 --> 00:29:57,672
All of a sudden, I was on a roll.

593
00:29:59,006 --> 00:30:01,133
But there was something off.

594
00:30:05,763 --> 00:30:07,306
I always need an enemy.

595
00:30:08,140 --> 00:30:09,475
Visiting somebody around here?

596
00:30:11,060 --> 00:30:12,186
No.

597
00:30:12,979 --> 00:30:15,481
In '77, Arnold won Best Newcomer.

598
00:30:15,565 --> 00:30:16,566
I go, "Really?"

599
00:30:18,484 --> 00:30:22,697
The '80s was an interesting time,
because the definitive "action guy"

600
00:30:22,780 --> 00:30:24,699
had not really been formed yet.

601
00:30:24,782 --> 00:30:26,033
[tires squeal]

602
00:30:27,034 --> 00:30:30,246
Up until that time,
action was a car chase,

603
00:30:30,329 --> 00:30:32,540
like Bullitt or French Connection,

604
00:30:33,291 --> 00:30:35,877
and a film all about "intellect"

605
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:39,422
and innuendo
and "verbal" this and verbal that.

606
00:30:39,505 --> 00:30:42,300
With First Blood, it was about action.

607
00:30:42,967 --> 00:30:45,261
You actually relied upon your body

608
00:30:45,344 --> 00:30:46,888
to tell the story.

609
00:30:47,555 --> 00:30:48,389
Ah!

610
00:30:48,472 --> 00:30:50,433
[Sylvester] Dialogue was not necessary.

611
00:30:51,183 --> 00:30:54,103
I saw that it was an opportunity,
because no one else was doing this,

612
00:30:54,186 --> 00:30:56,939
except some other guy from Austria…

613
00:30:59,108 --> 00:31:00,860
who doesn't need to say much.

614
00:31:00,943 --> 00:31:03,946
[Arnold] Sly was ahead of me in the '80s,

615
00:31:04,030 --> 00:31:06,157
so it was for me to catch up.

616
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:10,036
Every time he came out with a movie,
like Rambo II,

617
00:31:10,786 --> 00:31:13,247
I had to figure out a way
of now outdoing that.

618
00:31:13,331 --> 00:31:15,625
[man] This new film you've made, Commando,

619
00:31:15,708 --> 00:31:18,085
it's been, of course, compared to Rambo.

620
00:31:18,169 --> 00:31:19,545
[Arnold] You can't compare those,

621
00:31:19,629 --> 00:31:21,714
because mine doesn't take place
in a jungle.

622
00:31:22,298 --> 00:31:25,885
[man] How about the muscles?
How do yours compare with Mr. Stallone's?

623
00:31:25,968 --> 00:31:29,013
I mean, I'm the one that won the titles,
so I don't have to defend myself.

624
00:31:31,307 --> 00:31:33,184
[Sylvester]
Arnold started to come on strong.

625
00:31:33,267 --> 00:31:36,520
We became incredibly competitive,
like Ali and Frazier

626
00:31:36,604 --> 00:31:39,273
or great warriors
that are traveling the same course.

627
00:31:39,357 --> 00:31:41,108
There was only room for one of us.

628
00:31:41,734 --> 00:31:44,695
We had a different style of acting,
completely.

629
00:31:47,114 --> 00:31:48,783
He was superior.

630
00:31:49,367 --> 00:31:51,994
He just had all the answers.
He had the body. He had the strength.

631
00:31:52,078 --> 00:31:53,746
That was his character.

632
00:31:54,372 --> 00:31:55,665
Knock, knock.

633
00:31:56,791 --> 00:31:59,585
I would try to be the kind of guy

634
00:31:59,669 --> 00:32:01,128
that's not overly gifted.

635
00:32:01,212 --> 00:32:02,171
Ah!

636
00:32:02,254 --> 00:32:04,799
I had to get my ass kicked constantly,

637
00:32:05,299 --> 00:32:08,469
whereas Arnold, he never got hurt much,
and I'm going, "Arnold."

638
00:32:08,552 --> 00:32:11,639
"You could fight a dragon
and you'd come back with a Band-Aid."

639
00:32:12,264 --> 00:32:15,101
We were incredibly antagonistic.

640
00:32:15,184 --> 00:32:17,853
I think what you need is a little iron

641
00:32:17,937 --> 00:32:18,771
in your diet.

642
00:32:18,854 --> 00:32:22,274
We couldn't stand to be in the same room.
People had to separate us.

643
00:32:22,358 --> 00:32:24,652
-Dillon!
-[Sylvester] We competed about everything.

644
00:32:24,735 --> 00:32:26,278
[Dillon] You son of a bitch.

645
00:32:27,196 --> 00:32:28,906
[Arnold]
The body being ripped and oiled up.

646
00:32:28,990 --> 00:32:30,408
What's the matter?

647
00:32:30,491 --> 00:32:32,660
Who is more vicious?
Who is more tough?

648
00:32:32,743 --> 00:32:36,497
And he goes, "Well, if Stallone kills 15,
I'm gonna kill 30."

649
00:32:36,580 --> 00:32:37,623
[yells]

650
00:32:37,707 --> 00:32:39,208
[Arnold] Who uses bigger knives?

651
00:32:39,291 --> 00:32:40,334
Stick around.

652
00:32:40,418 --> 00:32:41,669
Who uses bigger guns?

653
00:32:41,752 --> 00:32:43,963
[suspenseful music plays]

654
00:32:44,046 --> 00:32:45,214
[tires squeal]

655
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,634
[Sylvester] We continued exponentially
to carry cannons.

656
00:32:49,844 --> 00:32:52,471
[Arnold] Sly and I were at war.

657
00:32:54,181 --> 00:32:55,891
[Sylvester] He wanted to be number one.

658
00:32:58,352 --> 00:33:01,272
Unfortunately, he got there. [chuckles]

659
00:33:01,355 --> 00:33:05,359
Without Stallone, I maybe wouldn't have
been as motivated in the '80s

660
00:33:05,443 --> 00:33:08,904
to do the kind of movies that I did
and to work as hard as I did.

661
00:33:09,447 --> 00:33:10,781
[birds chirping]

662
00:33:10,865 --> 00:33:12,450
[Arnold] I'm a competitive person.

663
00:33:13,284 --> 00:33:15,369
My whole life was always like this.

664
00:33:17,163 --> 00:33:18,581
When I was a kid,

665
00:33:18,664 --> 00:33:22,668
my brother went into Graz
to go to middle school.

666
00:33:23,461 --> 00:33:25,713
The bus was like a half-an-hour walk

667
00:33:25,796 --> 00:33:26,922
through a forest.

668
00:33:27,548 --> 00:33:29,175
My brother was afraid

669
00:33:29,258 --> 00:33:30,217
of the dark.

670
00:33:30,301 --> 00:33:32,762
So it was very, very scary
when he walked home.

671
00:33:33,512 --> 00:33:35,097
So I had to go

672
00:33:35,181 --> 00:33:38,434
and make sure that my brother didn't cry
on the way home.

673
00:33:39,268 --> 00:33:43,064
I wanted to prove to my parents
that I was the bravest of us two.

674
00:33:44,065 --> 00:33:46,275
I wanted them to be proud of me

675
00:33:46,358 --> 00:33:47,735
and to show that yes,

676
00:33:48,444 --> 00:33:49,278
I can make it.

677
00:33:52,239 --> 00:33:54,742
In 1985,

678
00:33:55,326 --> 00:33:57,703
I took Maria with me to Austria,

679
00:33:58,454 --> 00:33:59,663
to Thal,

680
00:33:59,747 --> 00:34:01,165
to my home village.

681
00:34:02,625 --> 00:34:05,044
And then we went to the Thalersee,

682
00:34:05,127 --> 00:34:06,837
that lake in my village.

683
00:34:07,379 --> 00:34:09,673
It really meant a lot to me

684
00:34:09,757 --> 00:34:12,676
that she got to see where I came from

685
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:14,136
and where it all began.

686
00:34:16,055 --> 00:34:17,598
And I said to her,

687
00:34:17,681 --> 00:34:20,810
"The boats are out there.
I'll take you on a little boat ride."

688
00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:25,481
When we were in the middle of the lake,
I then pulled out the ring

689
00:34:25,564 --> 00:34:27,191
and I proposed to her.

690
00:34:30,820 --> 00:34:32,363
I pulled off the surprise.

691
00:34:33,155 --> 00:34:35,157
[indistinct chatter]

692
00:34:36,158 --> 00:34:37,910
The wedding was in Hyannis Port

693
00:34:37,993 --> 00:34:41,539
at the same church
where I first met Maria's grandmother,

694
00:34:41,622 --> 00:34:42,706
Rose Kennedy.

695
00:34:43,874 --> 00:34:46,043
It was the biggest wedding
that I've ever been to.

696
00:34:46,127 --> 00:34:48,504
At least 500 people were there.

697
00:34:49,505 --> 00:34:50,840
I knew ten percent.

698
00:34:51,674 --> 00:34:53,217
[woman] How do I love thee?

699
00:34:53,300 --> 00:34:55,302
Let me count the ways.

700
00:34:55,886 --> 00:34:57,304
I love thee

701
00:34:57,388 --> 00:34:58,722
with the breath,

702
00:34:59,473 --> 00:35:02,101
smiles, and tears

703
00:35:02,184 --> 00:35:04,019
of all my life.

704
00:35:04,103 --> 00:35:05,729
-[Maria] I, Maria…
-[Arnold] I, Arnold…

705
00:35:05,813 --> 00:35:08,232
-[Maria] Take you, Arnold…
-[Arnold] Take you, Maria…

706
00:35:08,315 --> 00:35:11,152
[both] In good times and bad,
in sickness and in health,

707
00:35:11,735 --> 00:35:12,820
I will love you…

708
00:35:12,903 --> 00:35:14,905
-[Arnold] And honor you…
-All the days of my life.

709
00:35:16,282 --> 00:35:17,449
Now what?

710
00:35:17,533 --> 00:35:18,909
You can kiss the bride.

711
00:35:18,993 --> 00:35:20,536
[applause]

712
00:35:23,330 --> 00:35:25,624
[joyful music plays]

713
00:35:26,458 --> 00:35:28,460
[cheering]

714
00:35:52,484 --> 00:35:55,905
[Arnold] I always thought
I'm the luckiest son of a bitch alive.

715
00:35:55,988 --> 00:36:00,242
I'm so fortunate
that I'm successful in the movie business

716
00:36:00,868 --> 00:36:02,661
and in my personal life.

717
00:36:02,745 --> 00:36:06,457
There's very few people that can say
they're successful in both.

718
00:36:09,376 --> 00:36:11,712
And then, becoming a father

719
00:36:11,795 --> 00:36:13,464
is a whole new ballgame.

720
00:36:13,547 --> 00:36:16,425
People talk about it a lot of times,
but you have no understanding

721
00:36:16,508 --> 00:36:18,010
what they're talking about.

722
00:36:18,093 --> 00:36:19,845
When Katherine was born,

723
00:36:19,929 --> 00:36:22,806
I was in there
with tears running down the eyes.

724
00:36:22,890 --> 00:36:25,017
I was just so emotional

725
00:36:25,768 --> 00:36:27,061
about this life

726
00:36:27,144 --> 00:36:29,313
that I have just created with Maria.

727
00:36:29,396 --> 00:36:33,317
And you realize
this is a whole other world.

728
00:36:34,026 --> 00:36:38,113
And so it was just staggering
what kind of great joy it brought to us.

729
00:36:38,864 --> 00:36:40,908
And, kind of, great motivation

730
00:36:40,991 --> 00:36:42,910
to continue on with your career.

731
00:36:42,993 --> 00:36:45,788
But now, you have to,
kind of, think about this.

732
00:36:49,833 --> 00:36:54,296
I always liked when you read a quote
and you say to yourself,

733
00:36:54,380 --> 00:36:56,548
"This is something
that I could have said."

734
00:36:57,049 --> 00:37:01,929
Ted Turner's "Early to bed, early to rise,
work like hell and advertise,"

735
00:37:02,429 --> 00:37:03,973
was one of those quotes.

736
00:37:05,015 --> 00:37:08,018
[curious music plays]

737
00:37:15,943 --> 00:37:18,612
[man] The first time I bumped into Arnold,

738
00:37:18,696 --> 00:37:21,532
we were both in Colorado skiing.

739
00:37:21,615 --> 00:37:24,034
He was stepping out of the Snowmass Club.

740
00:37:24,118 --> 00:37:26,620
He just suddenly stopped,
and he pointed at me.

741
00:37:26,704 --> 00:37:28,664
"You're that Ghostbusters guy,
aren't you?"

742
00:37:28,747 --> 00:37:31,583
I said, "Yeah, that's my movie."

743
00:37:31,667 --> 00:37:33,669
He said,
"You know, I could be a ghostbuster."

744
00:37:34,378 --> 00:37:37,298
That was such a clever way
for him to let me know,

745
00:37:37,381 --> 00:37:39,550
"I can do comedy.
It's not just action stuff."

746
00:37:40,384 --> 00:37:43,554
We went out to dinner,
and he caught me off guard.

747
00:37:43,637 --> 00:37:45,222
He spoke very well,

748
00:37:45,306 --> 00:37:48,434
and his intelligence
and humor came through.

749
00:37:49,435 --> 00:37:52,104
I said,
"We'll make a movie one day together."

750
00:37:53,564 --> 00:37:57,568
Later on, Danny DeVito and I
were at some Disney studio screening,

751
00:37:58,110 --> 00:38:01,822
and something about seeing those two guys
within a week of each other

752
00:38:01,905 --> 00:38:05,617
put that idea in my head
that they might be the perfect couple

753
00:38:05,701 --> 00:38:06,702
in a movie.

754
00:38:07,911 --> 00:38:11,290
[Danny] Totally out of the blue,
I got a phone call from Ivan Reitman.

755
00:38:11,373 --> 00:38:14,251
He says, "How about you
and Arnold Schwarzenegger being brothers

756
00:38:14,335 --> 00:38:15,336
in this movie Twins?"

757
00:38:15,419 --> 00:38:18,130
I said,
"Oh, Jesus, this is, like, amazing idea."

758
00:38:19,214 --> 00:38:21,175
I was in New York with my kids.

759
00:38:21,258 --> 00:38:24,094
I was in front of a hotel,
and I was getting out of a car,

760
00:38:24,178 --> 00:38:27,473
and I was struggling with the bags,
and I felt a hand on my shoulder

761
00:38:27,556 --> 00:38:30,434
and then grab the bag,
and I thought it was the doorman.

762
00:38:30,517 --> 00:38:33,145
And I turn around,
and there's Schwarzenegger.

763
00:38:33,228 --> 00:38:36,398
"Yo, Danny." And I said,
"Oh, Arnold! Thank you!"

764
00:38:36,482 --> 00:38:38,359
So that was our first meeting.

765
00:38:39,610 --> 00:38:41,070
For this really to work,

766
00:38:41,153 --> 00:38:44,740
you had to believe in the truth
of the story, as absurd as it is.

767
00:38:46,950 --> 00:38:50,204
-[Arnold in Twins] I have a brother?
-[man] Yeah.

768
00:38:51,830 --> 00:38:54,458
You were sent to an orphanage
in Los Angeles.

769
00:38:54,541 --> 00:38:56,835
[Reitman] I felt playing
a much more naive,

770
00:38:56,919 --> 00:39:00,297
much more new-to-the-world character
could be effective.

771
00:39:00,881 --> 00:39:02,883
He's probably just like me!

772
00:39:04,385 --> 00:39:05,969
[Reitman] We wrote it that way,

773
00:39:06,053 --> 00:39:11,141
and part of my job as the director
is to take advantage of everything you can

774
00:39:11,225 --> 00:39:14,103
exposing the deeper Arnold.

775
00:39:15,396 --> 00:39:18,774
I particularly did not want
the one-liners as an approach.

776
00:39:18,857 --> 00:39:21,443
He always thought
that the way to deliver the line is

777
00:39:21,527 --> 00:39:24,405
to just pitch it in a physical way,

778
00:39:24,488 --> 00:39:28,325
where really the great comedians
underplay things as much as possible.

779
00:39:28,409 --> 00:39:31,495
I always told writers
they have to write for me.

780
00:39:31,578 --> 00:39:33,872
Remember, Sully,
when I promised to kill you last?

781
00:39:33,956 --> 00:39:35,624
That's right, Matrix, you did.

782
00:39:35,707 --> 00:39:37,209
I lied.

783
00:39:37,292 --> 00:39:42,131
The lines that I'm famous for,
that's not how you talk in a comedy.

784
00:39:42,214 --> 00:39:45,592
It was one of those interesting switches
that you had to make,

785
00:39:45,676 --> 00:39:49,221
where something worked for you,
the more you had to work to get rid of it.

786
00:39:53,934 --> 00:39:55,978
Immediately, bingo.

787
00:39:56,061 --> 00:39:57,146
We kind of fit.

788
00:39:57,646 --> 00:40:00,649
My name is Julius
and I am your twin brother.

789
00:40:02,401 --> 00:40:04,111
Oh, obviously!

790
00:40:04,194 --> 00:40:06,947
The moment I sat down,
I thought I was looking into a mirror!

791
00:40:07,865 --> 00:40:09,491
We are not identical twins.

792
00:40:09,575 --> 00:40:11,034
["Money" plays]

793
00:40:11,118 --> 00:40:14,913
[Danny] And then we do the whole
looking in the mirror kind of thing.

794
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:26,925
Twins was actually the first movie
that made over $100,000,000 for me

795
00:40:27,009 --> 00:40:28,093
at the box office.

I met Arnold at a Halloween party.
I grew up in an Austrian family,

803
00:40:53,994 --> 00:40:56,455
and so we connected on skiing

804
00:40:56,538 --> 00:40:59,333
and Wiener schnitzel and lederhosen.

805
00:41:00,167 --> 00:41:03,086
He said, "You know, I'm starting
to make a lot of money."

806
00:41:03,170 --> 00:41:05,297
"I wanna do more than real estate."

807
00:41:05,380 --> 00:41:08,675
"I'd like you to manage my money.
Would you help do deals?"

808
00:41:08,759 --> 00:41:11,094

[man] Tonight, the wait is over.

812
00:41:22,397 --> 00:41:24,942
Planet Hollywood is open
in our part of the globe.

813
00:41:25,025 --> 00:41:28,737
[Wachter] His influence
in the mid '80s to 2000s

814
00:41:28,820 --> 00:41:30,113
was tremendous.

815
00:41:30,739 --> 00:41:32,824
He helped start the cigar boom.

816
00:41:32,908 --> 00:41:34,910
Suddenly, cigars became this huge thing.

817
00:41:34,993 --> 00:41:36,620
He was the biggest movie star
in the world.

818
00:41:36,703 --> 00:41:38,705
And he was always filmed with a cigar.

819
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:43,001
The big watches. Nobody wore big watches.

820
00:41:43,585 --> 00:41:47,881
The Hummers. Arnold had been involved
in developing the first commercial Hummer.

821
00:41:47,965 --> 00:41:51,385
The whole idea of America
going to bigger cars, SUVs,

822
00:41:51,468 --> 00:41:52,553
and all that stuff,

823
00:41:52,636 --> 00:41:54,304
that's all part of that.

824
00:41:54,888 --> 00:41:56,139
That's his brand.

825
00:41:56,223 --> 00:41:58,642
[Arnold] I am a stud. I am ballsy.

826
00:41:58,725 --> 00:42:01,353
I smoke my stogie anywhere I want.

827
00:42:01,436 --> 00:42:04,398
I don't have to find
a hideout place like you.

828
00:42:04,481 --> 00:42:05,524
[laughs]

829
00:42:06,692 --> 00:42:09,319
It's the Schmäh.
It's the Schmäh, right there.

830
00:42:09,403 --> 00:42:10,737
Everything's bullshit.

831
00:42:10,821 --> 00:42:11,947
[laughs]

832
00:42:12,030 --> 00:42:14,575
[Arnold] To sell things,
you have to have the Schmäh.

833
00:42:15,284 --> 00:42:18,870
The only way I could translate it really
is like "bullshit," right?

834
00:42:18,954 --> 00:42:20,956
That in America, we just say bullshit.

835
00:42:21,039 --> 00:42:24,167
When you go out and promote a movie,
"The pump is better than coming."

836
00:42:24,251 --> 00:42:25,460
It's all the Schmäh.

837
00:42:32,342 --> 00:42:36,680
I just always liked big,
monster military vehicles.

838
00:42:37,180 --> 00:42:39,891
And driving around with a Hummer,
then I have a tank.

839
00:42:39,975 --> 00:42:42,644
To drive a truck like that,
you gotta have a stogie in your mouth,

840
00:42:42,728 --> 00:42:45,105
because then the whole thing
is more ballsy.

841
00:42:45,856 --> 00:42:47,107
It's just the Schmäh.

842
00:42:48,775 --> 00:42:50,485
[engine revs]

843
00:42:56,241 --> 00:42:58,827
-Terminator 2. He's back.
-That's right.

844
00:42:59,411 --> 00:43:03,707
[Arnold] Whenever you do a sequel,
you cannot just do the same story.

845
00:43:05,292 --> 00:43:07,794
In Terminator 1, I was this evil machine

846
00:43:07,878 --> 00:43:10,672
that just destroyed anyone
and everyone that came in my path.

847
00:43:11,673 --> 00:43:12,924
And in the second one,

848
00:43:13,008 --> 00:43:14,885
I say, "I swear…"

849
00:43:14,968 --> 00:43:16,386
I will not kill anyone.

850
00:43:17,304 --> 00:43:20,974
[Cameron] At first,
Arnold was absolutely against the idea.

851
00:43:21,058 --> 00:43:23,894
Arnold and I were gonna meet
and talk about the script.

852
00:43:23,977 --> 00:43:28,482
So I sit down. I could see
he's not his usual cheerful self.

853
00:43:28,565 --> 00:43:30,776
I go, "What's the matter?
You didn't like it."

854
00:43:30,859 --> 00:43:31,943
He goes, "Jim."

855
00:43:34,196 --> 00:43:35,614
"I don't kill anybody."

856
00:43:36,156 --> 00:43:37,991
Come with me if you want to live.

857
00:43:38,075 --> 00:43:40,786
[Cameron] "Now you're the good guy,
the defender, the protector."

858
00:43:40,869 --> 00:43:43,830
He said, "Okay. All right."

859
00:43:43,914 --> 00:43:45,791
"Can I shoot them in the leg?"

860
00:43:45,874 --> 00:43:48,418
I said, "Yeah, let's just shoot them
in the leg. How's that?"

861
00:43:48,502 --> 00:43:50,462
He goes, "No, that's good."

862
00:43:51,588 --> 00:43:52,673
[screams]

863
00:43:53,423 --> 00:43:55,884
-What the hell are you doing?
-He'll live.

864
00:43:57,344 --> 00:43:59,638
[Arnold] A few days before we start,
Jim Cameron says,

865
00:43:59,721 --> 00:44:01,640
"Let's all get together
and have a nice dinner."

866
00:44:01,723 --> 00:44:04,518
Linda comes in
and she takes her sweater off,

867
00:44:04,601 --> 00:44:06,436
and I'm looking at her arms.

868
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:09,272
Veins on the biceps

869
00:44:09,356 --> 00:44:11,024
and then the triceps.

870
00:44:11,108 --> 00:44:14,027
Everything was like a bodybuilder,
except miniature.

871
00:44:14,111 --> 00:44:17,406
I do remember the fierce pride that I had

872
00:44:17,489 --> 00:44:19,157
to show to Arnold.

873
00:44:19,241 --> 00:44:22,119
[Arnold] I said,
"I can't believe that son of a bitch

874
00:44:22,202 --> 00:44:24,121
is fucking more cut than me."

875
00:44:24,788 --> 00:44:28,458
[Cameron] When I made a film with Arnold,
I had him speak to the cast.

876
00:44:28,542 --> 00:44:31,503
Actors usually try to share a little truth

877
00:44:31,586 --> 00:44:33,130
of the acting process.

878
00:44:33,213 --> 00:44:34,423
Arnold says forget all that.

879
00:44:34,506 --> 00:44:35,590
He saw

880
00:44:35,674 --> 00:44:39,761
half the job was performing the film
and half the job was promoting the film.

881
00:44:39,845 --> 00:44:41,471
[Arnold] You have to be involved yourself.

882
00:44:41,555 --> 00:44:45,142
You have to go in there and just say,
"Here's why you should see this movie."

883
00:44:45,225 --> 00:44:47,477
It doesn't matter
if the other stars say no,

884
00:44:47,561 --> 00:44:49,229
because they're spoiled brats.

885
00:44:49,312 --> 00:44:52,274
"I am a star. I don't sell movies."

886
00:44:52,357 --> 00:44:54,735
"You have to sell the movie.
I am the artist."

887
00:44:54,818 --> 00:44:56,403
Bullshit. You have to sell everything.

888
00:44:56,486 --> 00:44:58,488
No matter what you do in life,
you have to sell it.

889
00:44:59,072 --> 00:45:02,159
And the movie didn't make, like,
$50,000,000 like the first one.

890
00:45:02,242 --> 00:45:06,538
It made over $200,000,000 domestically.
It became the highest-grossing movie.

891
00:45:06,621 --> 00:45:09,708
[man] Arnold Schwarzenegger terminated
his box office competition.

892
00:45:09,791 --> 00:45:11,752
[man 2] Why does Arnold want
to play a good cyborg?

893
00:45:11,835 --> 00:45:13,211
[woman] I think there will be a day

894
00:45:13,295 --> 00:45:15,380
you'll see him running
for the Senate in California,

895
00:45:15,464 --> 00:45:17,340
and he didn't want to ruin it
by turning around

896
00:45:17,424 --> 00:45:20,135
and being the bad guy he was back in 1984.

897
00:45:20,218 --> 00:45:22,804
And it's just a tiny theory,
but that's mine.

898
00:45:22,888 --> 00:45:24,264
-You heard it here first.
-Yes.

899
00:45:24,347 --> 00:45:26,683
There probably isn't a person
anywhere on the planet

900
00:45:26,767 --> 00:45:29,936
who doesn't know who
that man behind the screen is.

901
00:45:30,020 --> 00:45:32,606
He's the number one
box office star in the world.

902
00:45:32,689 --> 00:45:36,610
Today, his latest film opened.
It's called Last Action Hero.

903
00:45:36,693 --> 00:45:39,529
Please give it up
for Arnold Schwarzenegger.

904
00:45:39,613 --> 00:45:40,989
[cheering and applause]

905
00:45:41,072 --> 00:45:44,034
[Arnold] When Last Action Hero came out,

906
00:45:44,117 --> 00:45:48,205
I had reached my peak after Terminator 2,

907
00:45:48,288 --> 00:45:52,375
having the most successful movie
of the year worldwide.

908
00:45:52,459 --> 00:45:53,835
Not just in America, but worldwide.

909
00:45:57,464 --> 00:46:01,092
So at that point, it was everyone
was gunning to take me down.

910
00:46:01,635 --> 00:46:05,138
[man] Not everyone is taking
to Arnold Schwarzenegger's wild new movie,

911
00:46:05,222 --> 00:46:06,681
The Last Action Hero.

912
00:46:06,765 --> 00:46:07,849
[grunts]

913
00:46:07,933 --> 00:46:09,309
[action music plays]

914
00:46:09,392 --> 00:46:12,729
[man] In fact, some of the reviews
have been downright nasty.

915
00:46:12,813 --> 00:46:16,525
Last Action Hero flies
uncommonly close to turkeydom.

916
00:46:17,484 --> 00:46:19,194
[Arnold] I cannot tell you

917
00:46:19,820 --> 00:46:23,907
how upset that I was.

918
00:46:23,990 --> 00:46:25,283
It hurts you.

919
00:46:25,367 --> 00:46:27,452
It hurts your feelings. It's embarrassing.

920
00:46:27,536 --> 00:46:30,205
You get embarrassed
when you watch the box office.

921
00:46:32,791 --> 00:46:34,918
[Cameron] I remember calling Arnold
on Saturday morning,

922
00:46:35,001 --> 00:46:36,920
and I hadn't really read the news.

923
00:46:37,504 --> 00:46:39,256
I said, "How'd the picture open?"

924
00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:40,757
He said…

925
00:46:40,841 --> 00:46:42,133
[imitation Arnold] …"Terrible."

926
00:46:42,717 --> 00:46:45,637
And he sounded like he was,
like, in bed crying.

927
00:46:45,720 --> 00:46:49,015
He took it as, like,
a deep blow to his brand.

928
00:46:49,099 --> 00:46:50,767
I think it really shook him.

929
00:46:54,020 --> 00:46:55,564
I said, "What are you gonna do?"

930
00:46:56,064 --> 00:46:57,148
He says,

931
00:46:57,232 --> 00:47:00,318
"I'm just gonna hang out by myself."
[laughs]

932
00:47:00,402 --> 00:47:03,071
That's the only time
I've ever heard him down.

933
00:47:03,655 --> 00:47:05,824
[Arnold] I didn't want
to see anyone for a week,

934
00:47:06,324 --> 00:47:08,451
but you keep plodding along.

935
00:47:08,535 --> 00:47:10,704
And my mother-in-law
also said this all the time,

936
00:47:10,787 --> 00:47:13,123
she says, "Let's just move forward.
Let's just move forward."

937
00:47:13,206 --> 00:47:14,791
"Let's go. Move. Move. Move. Move."

938
00:47:14,875 --> 00:47:16,501
It's a great message.

939
00:47:17,460 --> 00:47:19,462
After Last Action Hero came out,

940
00:47:19,963 --> 00:47:21,381
Bobby Shriver called me.

941
00:47:21,464 --> 00:47:23,508
He says, "You should see La Totale!"

942
00:47:23,592 --> 00:47:25,343
A little French movie that no one saw.

943
00:47:25,427 --> 00:47:27,554
It was very entertaining
and very well done.

944
00:47:27,637 --> 00:47:30,265
And the concept was
so refreshing and so new.

945
00:47:30,348 --> 00:47:32,851
So I called Jim Cameron,
and I said… I said to him, "Jim."

946
00:47:32,934 --> 00:47:34,644
"You gotta see this film."

947
00:47:34,728 --> 00:47:37,397
Arnold's bringing me
a project that he believes in.

948
00:47:37,480 --> 00:47:38,982
He'd never done that before.

949
00:47:39,065 --> 00:47:40,817
I thought we could have fun with comedy.

950
00:47:40,901 --> 00:47:43,778
I knew Arnold had done comedy.
He had a great sense of humor.

951
00:47:43,862 --> 00:47:45,614
And that it would be a good action film.

952
00:47:46,114 --> 00:47:50,660
He said, "Let's make it big."
And I said, "Yeah, let's make it big."

953
00:47:50,744 --> 00:47:52,954
May I see your invitation, please?

954
00:47:53,038 --> 00:47:55,081
Sure, here's my invitation.

955
00:47:59,794 --> 00:48:04,341
The phone in my bedroom rang,
and I heard this…

956
00:48:04,925 --> 00:48:06,968
"Hi, Jamie. It's James Cameron."

957
00:48:07,052 --> 00:48:10,513
"I've written a movie
for you and Arnold Schwarzenegger."

958
00:48:13,725 --> 00:48:17,020
Plumber called. He says
he has to dig under the slab or something.

959
00:48:17,103 --> 00:48:18,980
It's going to cost $600.

960
00:48:19,064 --> 00:48:20,273
Mmm, that's okay.

961
00:48:20,815 --> 00:48:22,609
Well, it's not okay. It's extortion.

962
00:48:23,151 --> 00:48:24,653
So what did you tell him?

963
00:48:24,736 --> 00:48:27,572
I slept with him
and he said he'd knock off $100.

964
00:48:28,073 --> 00:48:30,158
That's good thinking. Bye, Honey.

965
00:48:32,786 --> 00:48:37,791
[Jaime] Arnold is incredibly generous
to his crew and his cast.

966
00:48:38,458 --> 00:48:40,669
His door is open all day long.

967
00:48:41,544 --> 00:48:43,964
Maria was there. The kids were there.

968
00:48:44,047 --> 00:48:45,131
It was lovely.

969
00:48:45,882 --> 00:48:48,426
I was as free in that performance

970
00:48:48,510 --> 00:48:50,345
as I had ever been in my life.

971
00:48:50,428 --> 00:48:52,555
[action music plays]

972
00:48:52,639 --> 00:48:53,515
Come on, baby.

973
00:48:57,519 --> 00:48:59,521
[woman screams]

974
00:49:00,438 --> 00:49:03,233
[Jaime] And then, the movie is finished.

975
00:49:05,068 --> 00:49:06,277
And the phone rang.

976
00:49:07,445 --> 00:49:08,613
It was Jim Cameron,

977
00:49:09,322 --> 00:49:11,324
and he said, "I went to Arnold,

978
00:49:11,408 --> 00:49:13,034
and asked him

979
00:49:13,118 --> 00:49:17,288
if I could put your name
above the title of the movie."

980
00:49:18,581 --> 00:49:23,128
So much effing money is spent
on lawyers and agents

981
00:49:23,211 --> 00:49:24,838
for credits.

982
00:49:24,921 --> 00:49:26,589
It's a big business.

983
00:49:27,173 --> 00:49:30,218
With all of his big bravado and ego

984
00:49:30,301 --> 00:49:32,637
and all the things that have made him,

985
00:49:32,721 --> 00:49:34,848
he had the grace

986
00:49:35,557 --> 00:49:37,183
to make some room for me.

987
00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:40,478
It was a very moving moment for me,

988
00:49:40,562 --> 00:49:43,314
and that movie,
of course, changed my life.

989
00:49:45,358 --> 00:49:48,653
[man] Like a phoenix rising
from the dust of Last Action Hero,

990
00:49:48,737 --> 00:49:51,322
Arnold Schwarzenegger is back
stronger than ever.

991
00:49:51,406 --> 00:49:54,617
True Lies is true gold.
Claimed the number one spot.

992
00:49:55,618 --> 00:49:57,120
[Arnold] So then I was back again.

993
00:49:57,203 --> 00:50:00,248
"Arnold is back.
When he says, 'I'll be back,' he's back."

994
00:50:00,331 --> 00:50:02,834
♪ Back with another one
Of those block rockin' beats… ♪

995
00:50:02,917 --> 00:50:05,045
[Arnold] Then we came out with Junior

996
00:50:05,128 --> 00:50:07,922
that Ivan Reitman directed.
It became a successful movie.

997
00:50:08,006 --> 00:50:09,924
I'm gonna be a mama too.

998
00:50:10,508 --> 00:50:12,927
♪ Back with another one
Of those block rockin' beats… ♪

999
00:50:16,097 --> 00:50:19,059
[Arnold] And then the next movie, Eraser,
made over $100,000,000.

1000
00:50:19,142 --> 00:50:21,478
[Arnold in Batman and Robin]
What killed the dinosaurs?

1001
00:50:21,561 --> 00:50:22,937
The Ice Age!

1002
00:50:24,189 --> 00:50:26,191
[Arnold] And then was Batman and Robin.

1003
00:50:26,274 --> 00:50:28,359
And everything was just dandy and fine.

1004
00:50:28,443 --> 00:50:29,819
It's a play.

1005
00:50:29,903 --> 00:50:31,196
Life is a play.

1006
00:50:31,279 --> 00:50:34,699
You have to be able to take
the failures with the successes,

1007
00:50:34,783 --> 00:50:36,409
and that's just the way it is.

1008
00:50:39,621 --> 00:50:42,415
[Arnold] Hi, listen.
What are you doing this afternoon?

1009
00:50:42,499 --> 00:50:45,794
Come over to my house.
My mother makes good apfelstrudel.

1010
00:50:45,877 --> 00:50:47,462
[speaking German]

1011
00:50:47,545 --> 00:50:49,672
[Arnold] Okay, no apple strudel.

1012
00:50:49,756 --> 00:50:53,551
When my brother passed away,
and when my dad passed away,

1013
00:50:53,635 --> 00:50:56,137
then I was the only one
left in the family.

1014
00:50:56,221 --> 00:50:59,849
So now I had to really shift gears
and think much more about my mother.

1015
00:51:02,060 --> 00:51:06,147
In 1974, she stayed with me
for a few weeks and she loved it.

1016
00:51:07,941 --> 00:51:11,194
And I started to really appreciate
my mother much more,

1017
00:51:11,277 --> 00:51:13,988
hanging out with her
and having a good time.

1018
00:51:14,072 --> 00:51:15,949
She went on every movie set.

1019
00:51:18,409 --> 00:51:19,953
She took pictures on the movie set.

1020
00:51:20,036 --> 00:51:22,997
She made her photo albums,
took it home to Austria,

1021
00:51:23,081 --> 00:51:25,333
and then she showed off over there
with her friends.

1022
00:51:25,416 --> 00:51:26,835
Very, very proud of me.

1023
00:51:28,378 --> 00:51:32,090
In Austria, there's two things
you don't talk about ever.

1024
00:51:32,173 --> 00:51:33,758
About your finances

1025
00:51:33,842 --> 00:51:34,843

1026
00:51:35,885 --> 00:51:38,179
and about your health problems.

1027
00:51:41,891 --> 00:51:43,768
In 1997,

1028
00:51:44,686 --> 00:51:48,022
after I was finished
with Batman and Robin,

1029
00:51:48,857 --> 00:51:51,526
my mother was staying with us.

1030
00:51:52,193 --> 00:51:53,403
She got up in the morning,

1031
00:51:53,486 --> 00:51:55,780
and Maria said,
"Arnold is in the hospital."

1032
00:51:55,864 --> 00:51:57,532
"He's having heart surgery."

1033
00:51:58,116 --> 00:52:00,118
And my mother said, "What?"

1034
00:52:07,375 --> 00:52:09,335
After I woke up from the surgery,

1035
00:52:09,419 --> 00:52:12,755
the doctor sat down in my bed
and held my hand.

1036
00:52:13,506 --> 00:52:15,717
He says, "Arnold, I'm so sorry."

1037
00:52:16,551 --> 00:52:17,760
"It didn't work."

1038
00:52:18,428 --> 00:52:22,182
"One of the valves blew out
and you started collecting blood

1039
00:52:22,265 --> 00:52:23,391
in your lungs."

1040
00:52:24,100 --> 00:52:26,477
"We have to have
another surgery right away."

1041
00:52:28,897 --> 00:52:31,858
They started preparing me
for the second surgery.

1042
00:52:33,359 --> 00:52:34,444
I said to myself,

1043
00:52:35,153 --> 00:52:36,613
"What the hell is going on here?"

1044
00:52:36,696 --> 00:52:38,615
"No one has given me any anesthesia yet,

1045
00:52:38,698 --> 00:52:40,950
and the guy is standing here
with the knife."

1046
00:52:41,534 --> 00:52:43,161
The doctor said to me,

1047
00:52:43,244 --> 00:52:47,081
"We want to wait until the last second.
I don't want to lose you."

1048
00:52:49,500 --> 00:52:51,961
I said to myself, "What?"

1049
00:52:52,962 --> 00:52:56,633
Then, they did give me the anesthesia,
and I wiped out.

1050
00:52:58,593 --> 00:53:00,595
It was kind of touch and go.

1051
00:53:01,721 --> 00:53:04,474
Sixteen hours later, I woke up again.

1052
00:53:04,557 --> 00:53:06,184
The surgery was successful.

1053
00:53:08,728 --> 00:53:10,521
My mother came into the hospital

1054
00:53:10,605 --> 00:53:12,982
and gave me a lot of hell
for not telling her,

1055
00:53:13,066 --> 00:53:15,568
and "How could you do this to me?
I'm your mother."

1056
00:53:15,652 --> 00:53:17,862
"You're supposed to be able
to tell me anything."

1057
00:53:17,946 --> 00:53:19,656
It was just too much for her.

1058
00:53:27,163 --> 00:53:28,581
A year later,

1059
00:53:28,665 --> 00:53:29,916
I got a phone call

1060
00:53:30,458 --> 00:53:33,294
that my mother was visiting my dad

1061
00:53:33,378 --> 00:53:34,504
at the graveyard,

1062
00:53:35,004 --> 00:53:37,674
and right there on the grave,
she passed away.

1063
00:53:39,217 --> 00:53:40,218
Yeah, so…

1064
00:53:42,679 --> 00:53:44,472
My mother passed away

1065
00:53:44,555 --> 00:53:46,933
from the same valve problem that I had.

1066
00:53:48,142 --> 00:53:50,478
She refused the surgery.

1067
00:53:51,312 --> 00:53:53,731
She just always said, "If God wants me,

1068
00:53:54,565 --> 00:53:55,566
he can have me."

1069
00:53:57,819 --> 00:54:01,072
I immediately felt this sense of,
"Well, now what?"

1070
00:54:02,448 --> 00:54:05,910
It was so deep inside me
that I never thought about it,

1071
00:54:05,994 --> 00:54:09,914
that I'm maybe still trying
to look for approval from my mother.

Let me tell you.

1083
00:54:51,789 --> 00:54:55,376
[Arnold] After the surgery,
I was not working for a year.

1084
00:54:56,544 --> 00:54:58,713
Studios started calling my agent
and saying,

1085

"I think we're gonna postpone this movie,"

1086

[Arnold] There was a time when I was
