Grieve (2023) Movie Script
1
They don't even realize
that when they're talking
about their forefathers,
they're really talking
about the people who
did this and came over.
These weren't the early settlers.
Things were established
long before, and it was not-
Your coffee.
Thanks, Tella.
Hey, Sam.
You know, we said you could
take a couple weeks off.
It's the holidays, buddy.
Yeah, I know.
I just, I gotta keep working
and take my mind off of things, so.
Look, Sam, we might
be able to consider that
if you're actually getting your work done.
Sam, relax, take some time off.
We're all pulling for you, bud.
Why don't you
go out to the cabin?
We're gonna be in Florida for a while
and that's what the cabin's
there for, you know.
No use in stewing in that apartment.
Go take in some fresh air
and try to clear your mind.
A nervous stuttering
A slight suffering
I'm caving in
I might have died
I might have died
Materialized
After you.
I always want to try a new beer
but ended up grabbing the same old shit.
Yeah, I do the same thing.
- Hey, how you doing?
- What's up buddy?
I'm gonna grab our friend's
beer here as well, please.
Oh, no, no, it's okay.
It's on me.
Don't worry about it.
- I got it.
- Are you sure?
- Yeah.
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
- $13.99, please.
Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Thanks, man.
- Have a nice day.
- Have a good one.
Take care.
Hey, you wouldn't happen to be staying
at that cabin at the tip
of the triangle, would you?
The triangle?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, it's, it's my mom's cabin.
Ralph?
Sam, how the hell are you?
How's your mother doing?
You know, perpetual vacation.
This is great.
What are you gonna get into tonight?
I'm gonna be up that way anyway.
I could use a drinking buddy.
Yeah, yeah.
I don't know.
I just got in for the night
so probably gonna turn in for
the night, but rain check.
Well, it's hang though, man.
How long are you gonna be in town?
My wife's a fucking damn
old nag in the winter,
sitting alone watching the
same old action movies,
breaking my spirit, you know what I mean?
- I'll call you.
- Cool.
- Thanks for the beer.
- No problem.
She used to wake up
in the middle of the night,
pop her knuckles,
staring at the ceiling
in some strange trance.
I'd pretend to sleep and watch,
wonder what she was thinking.
Could she see the future?
Is she seeing me now?
Where are you?
Have you saved a place for me?
Time seems stagnant without you,
sickly and slow.
Where
Did you go
When you were born
Tonight I lost
Tonight
Tonight I lost you
Tonight
Tonight I lost you
When did I lose
Turned to dust
In your arms
It's nice in your house
In your arms
I love you
My love
I'm lost in your arms
But death lies here in the shadows?
Oui.
So here it drops from D flat major
to C sharp minor.
And that pulse right
there, that's G sharp.
It's like a, a mirror into
another life, or the afterlife.
Dramatic.
"Of course, when you reduce ends and aims
to the simplest terms,
we are all very busy to little purpose.
The end of all work seems to
be for many of us the same.
We seek the wherewithal
to enjoy ourselves.
A little money for the most part,
a little happiness for the rest.
The locust out in the grass
manages his affairs
satisfactorily to himself."
That's it.
Speaker wasn't even plugged in.
Hey, you know Briar Hill?
Briar Hill?
No, what is that?
It's up in the woods.
Up at Leech Run.
Hell a vista if you're into the trek.
Yeah, it sounds familiar.
Of course it's always nice
to have something to
make it more interesting.
I don't wanna be that guy, but...
What are these pills?
Crushed up psilocybin, my dude.
Hello?
Sarah?
Sarah.
I'm, I'm, I'm staying in
the the cabin over there.
Is this your property?
Sorry, just having a look.
Ripped from existence.
Dreams,
ideas.
God, entity.
Does your energy still live in me?
Do you know I'm thinking of you?
Do you know?
And I'll take some of those,
I think, the, the lights
Yeah.
$22.99, please.
Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
Have a nice day.
- You too.
- Take care.
Hello?
Hello?
Hello?
Hello?
What the fuck?
Who's there?
Hello?
Oh, hey man.
You won't believe what...
I just, I don't, I don't know.
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
It's boring.
Yeah.
Listen, do you wanna come
over for dinner tomorrow?
No, no, man.
No, just whatever, beer.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah.
I'll see you tomorrow.
Okay, bye.
Okay.
I'm here.
I miss you.
I miss you too.
I miss you.
I miss you.
I miss you.
I miss you.
I miss you.
I miss you.
I miss you.
That funny feeling
of hope and surrender.
That funny feeling of hope.
You gotta be careful, dude.
Where do you even get
off eating that many?
That's some wild shit.
Yeah, obviously.
I didn't know they sneak
up on you like that.
Hear about kids jumping
into trains and shit.
Yeah, that's bullshit.
So what's up with your hand though?
Mmmm.
I'm just keeping it warm, I guess.
What's going on, dude?
You good?
I'm too...
It's fine.
I think it's an older model, not so sharp.
Dulled spinners, blades.
Boy, you fucked up.
It's just a nick.
How's your tripping otherwise?
Good enough to keep you
coming back, I guess.
Am I right?
Got any cool visuals, anything spooky?
The woods are pretty weird, dude.
You wouldn't believe.
Try me.
Man, I haven't even had
time to process it yet myself.
It's uh, it's okay.
Got some wild stories too, bro.
Reality's pretty thin around here.
Just, just want you to stay safe, Sammy.
Ralphie, I'll be okay.
Come on.
Don't you want me to sleep on
the couch with some warm milk?
Oh, get the fuck out of here.
In case you have a nightmare.
Fuck off.
Are you sure you're okay to drive?
You really do want me to sleep
on the couch with some
warm milk ready for you.
All right, get the fuck outta here.
Listen, Maybe you oughta
think about packing it up.
I don't think things
are gonna get any better
for you out here.
You should leave.
Okay.
Cool.
Hey, you need that?
I said nothing.
No.
No, please.
He won't for you.
He's...
Wake up, Sammy.
We're gonna miss it.
- Sarah.
- Let's go, sleepyhead.
Yeah, I'm ready.
It's so cold in here.
I don't know how you slept last night.
You did drink quite a bit of wine.
Yeah.
It's so nice already.
I can't believe it's been five years.
This is where we were even.
And we started drinking
mimosas at six a.m.
In all my life, Sammy, I
had never been so happy.
Me too.
I love you so much, Sarah.
I know, Sammy.
That's why it's gonna get you.
What's gonna get me?
The thing that feeds
off the cold in your bones
and the hurt In your heart.
You brought it.
Now you have to get rid of it.
Now watch the sunrise before I disappear.
What is this evil?
Has it always lurked in me?
Does it feed on me now?
Does it hear me?
Are you here?
Who am I?
Who am I?
Nothing can scare
you like losing the person
you love the most
and being left alone to trip
like some free-floating particle
in a storm full of nothingness.
Ripped from existence.
They don't even realize

about their forefathers,
