Voila! Finally, the Only You
script is here for all you quotes spouting fans of the Marisa Tomei and
Robert Downey Jr. movie. This script is a transcript that was painstakingly
transcribed using the screenplay and/or viewings of Only You. I know, I know, I still need to get the cast names in there and I'll be eternally
tweaking it, so if you have any corrections, feel free to
drop me a line. You won't
hurt my feelings. Honest.
Only you
Can make this world
seem right
Only you
Can make the darkness bright
Only you
And you alone
Can thrill me like you do
And fill my heart with love
For only you
Baby, only you
Can make this change in me
For it's true
You are my destiny
Stop pushing it You're supposed to
let it happen, not force it
- I'm not pushing it You are
- I am not
You're doing it again
You're pushing it Stop it
Mom! Larry's pushing it!
- Larry, don't push it!
- I'm not it's moving itself
Wait
I have to write this down
Grandma said everyone has a soul mate
This way I'll know his name
The one I'm supposed to wait for
The one that'll wait for me
But, Faith, what if this guy
lived a billion years ago?
- What it he's a dead caveman?
- Don't be stupid, Larry
Soul mates are our destiny
They live when we live
What it he lives here in Pittsburgh
and you just pass him on the street?
It couldn't happen I'd know
Like when bees know how to make honey
And you'll know too
'cause you have one
We all do
Look
"Damon Bradley"
My other half?
My soul mate
She wants to know
it she's going to marry Alex
I do not!
He doesn't even have a brain
He's got pretty eyes That means
your kids would have pretty eyes
He can get a brain later
What do you think, Faith?
The most important thing is true love
isn't that right, Kate?
Look out below!
Larry, I hate you!
- Bill is gonna be so mad
- I know
Next
So, what destiny do you wish
from Madame Divina?
Just basic destiny stuff
I guess
But I don't want to hear anything bad
if that's okay
Something's coming to me
I'm getting a name
A name that is very important
David?
No
Damon
His name...
is Damon Bradley
Oh, my God
Your destiny is $
The truth is...
you make your own destiny
Understand?
Don't wait for it to come to you
years later
"From the Latin root destinare...
meaning, to have destination...
to journey...
to take a trip where the events
are totally predetermined"
Imagine that
The motion
of like attracting like
The motion
of a divine preordination
Okay Look
One hand, two hands
Put them together...
and what do they make?
One
Right! So, Plato tells us
we began in circles
When we strived to be like the gods
we were punished by a thunderbolt...
that struck us and cut us
right down dead center...
in half
We scattered
to the ends of the earth...
searching and searching...
for our other half
Now, what Plato was saying...
is that if we just stop...
and go with the flow...
and follow our destiny...
it'll lead us back to each other
Okay, so following through
on this...
read from your green book
Remember, one Wordsworth
one Keats or one Shelley
Have a great holiday
Don't get up, Leslie
I got everything
- Kate, did you want me to help you?
- Oh, no You might strain yourself
- I would've helped
- What is all this? What's going on?
Wine, candles
What is it?
He proposed
Faith, that's great
Did he get down on his knees?
Well, no
He turned down his beeper
He's a doctor He's practical
He doesn't have to get on his knees
Did you guys set a date?
Well, no I don't think
we should rush into anything
Let me see the ring
Where is it?
You don't have it on?
- I'm blind Oh, my goodness
- It's so pretty
Where are my sunglasses?
It's gorgeous
- I hate you
- Oh, my God
I asked him to give me hours
to think about it
I'm never going
to get divorced, so--
I'm telling you
what I told him--
that I need time to reflect...
and that I'm going to say "yes"
I told my parents
I'm engaged
Oh, well
then it's official
- Dwayne What a catch He's a doctor
- He's so intelligent, Faith
- He's a doctor What do you want?
- Good sense of humor too
- He's got a mild sense of humor
- He's a doctor it's a tradeoff
He can't have a sense of humor too
He saves lives
He's a foot doctor
He saves feet
Feet are important
Plus, he's tall
Your kids will be tall
Yeah He's a sweetheart
You don't have to sell me on him
He's as good as gold
What is it you're waiting for?
I'm not waiting
Hey, Faith, grab me a beer
Faith, don't wait
You wait, you'll wind up with nothing
Oh, yeah Hi, Larry
Yeah, she's here Hold on
- My brother for you
- Uh-oh
Stop it
Don't eat my crust, Les
You still there?
I thought you'd be heading home by now
- I'm not I'm here
- What are you doing there?
Hanging out with your sister and Leslie
What is it? You miss me?
Yeah, my heart is breaking for you
Did you forget what night it is?
The guys are coming over
for poker
Oh I didn't know
you wanted me to play
Very funny Get home, make some
sandwiches and pick up some beer
This is my one night out
The kids are at Gus's
- Give me a break
- Kate, I still got lots of work to do!
Well, I've been in class
all day
Class?
The guys are gonna be there
without anything to eat!
I'm a woman, not a menu
All of a sudden
you're Helen Reddy
Get home!
You're gonna embarrass me
Fend for yourself
because I'm not coming home
I gotta go
What?
It's Ezio Pinza
Ezio who?
He was in South Pacific
with Mary Martin
Why don't they write songs
like this anymore?
I've gotta get going
No, no, no
You gotta stay and watch this
When you feel her call you
Across a crowded room
Then fly to her side
Saw a psychiatrist on Donahue say
that love songs are just a cruel hoax...
that feed people's fantasies
Romance on a daily basis?
Nobody has that
Yeah, but, Katy
somebody wrote those songs
They came out of
somebody's experience
No, I think they came out of
someone's imagination
Once you have found him
Never let him go
Once you have found her
Never
Let her
Go
Oh, my gosh
Wow
- Oh, look how it sparkles
- She's a beauty
Must've cost a lot
Yeah, I researched a lot of diamonds
and gemstones for this Learned a lot
It's amazing how many variations
there are...
of pure carbon
crystallized into octahedrons
But here's my real gemstone
right here
Sweet
- I know you don't like that I'm sorry
- That's okay is it all off?
- Yeah, I got it all
- Great
You've got to show this
to Aunt Gloria and Aunt Lil
They came all the way
from Pottsville
- May I see it one more time?
- Oh, Leslie!
Oh, my God!
It's the perfect size!
Come on, sweetheart
I feel like crying
- I have a headache
- Again?
Yes, but not
one of those headaches
I have bobby pins
holding my hair together
What is this?
It's down Put it up
It's not exploitation
Everybody wants money, right?
That's what makes
this country great, doll
- Don't call me doll, okay?
- You used to love it
Well, you said it differently then
Faith?
- Faith
- Oh Yes
I wore it
my daughter wore it...
and I want you
to have the same joy
And I must say I was thrilled
when Dwayne said you would wear it
Dwayne?
- Where are you going?
- She's got another of her headaches
It's a bobby-pin headache, Mom
Talk to you later, Les
- We're going Can I have the keys?
- I've got the keys Let's go
Well, good night, okay?
Call me early
Faith, I gotta go
Call you tomorrow
- It would mean a lot to her
- It means a lot to me too, Dwayne
- She's not a young woman anymore
- She's already been married twice
Surely we can do this one little thing
for her Will you think about it?
- The thing is, you didn't ask me
- Oh, my God
Here comes your crazy uncle Pat
He wants to take another picture
- Ask me next time
- Let me fix your hair
- It's supposed to be like that
- There Now you're perfect
One more Good one
- Sorry I'm late, Faith
- Don't look!
Oh, dear Okay
Guess what I'm tree
My mom and dad took the kids
to the lake for Labor Day...
so I was running around
getting that stutf together
- Dwayne's not coming over, is he?
- No
He had emergency surgery
You can look
Wow!
Faith, that's a dress
I've decided it's romantic...
wearing the gown of the woman
who bore your husband
I mean, my daughter
will wear it too...
someday...
maybe... not
Wait a second
Put the veil on
It'll be okay
- Sweet of her, wasn't it?
- Yes
It I had this dress
I'd give it to someone
- I look like a muffin
- No, you look fine
Did it come with the soundtrack?
I think it's built in here
somewhere
There's probably
plenty of things
It's the thickness
We'll fix it Don't worry
I'll pin it a little bit
We'll see what we can do
- Life's not like it is in the movies
- No, it's not
Although from day one
everyone conspires to tell you it is
Your mother, your father
Teachers, priests, everybody
Dreams come true The good guy wins
People live happily ever after
All that crap
Then one day you wake up
and realize that...
your life should be...
different
Katy, dreams aren't crap
Okay, what about
unforgettable moments?
You can't tell me
you don't have...
one memorable
unforgettable moment...
because I know
you've had thousands of them
We're having one right now
I'm in my wedding dress
Those are the things to notice
Kate, what's wrong?
I don't know
Faith, I gotta talk to you
about something
What?
Larry and I, we're just--
I'm sorry
I have to answer
Dwayne's having his calls forwarded
Don't move
- Dr Dwayne Johnson, please
- He's not in at the moment
He's doing an emergency matrixectomy
Can I take a message?
- Who's this?
- Faith, his fiancee Who's this?

He's not her soul mate
She's never even met this man
She's waited her whole lite for somebody

- Rome?
Rome? Tomorrow?
Tomorrow is sciopero generale
Everybody will be on strike
Good luck
Everybody's on strike?
No planes, buses, trains?
Nobody shows up for work?
What kind of country is this?
The point is, we've been
on the wrong road for an hour
No, no, no
The point is, we're looping
We looped back around to that freeway
or turnpike or whatever they call it
- Which way do we loop?
- Right
Left Right
Kate!
I told you a liter
was less than a gallon
We would've had enough gas
it you hadn't gotten us lost
Besides, a kilometer
is less than a mile
Right Less than a mile
So we should have been able
to cover more of them
This is great
I wonder what time it is
in Pittsburgh
Sorry I got us lost
I'm sorry I'm so edgy
I'm afraid we're losing him
I didn't tell him I was going
to the lake with the kids
I told him
I was leaving him
Leaving him?
I think he's having an affair
- How do you know? Did he say something?
- No
- Did you see him with her?
- No
- How do you know?
- I just know
Kate...
remember in junior high
when I had that Halloween party...
and we all played Twister?
You started to tall...
and instead of taking the spot...
Larry reached out to catch you
He let you win
He never let anybody win
That's when I knew
he was head over heels
That was a long time ago
You know what I thought then?
I thought...
I hope someday I have somebody
who loves me that much
I know he loves you
I know he would kill tigers
for you
Okay, Mr Cronenworth
Let's check out this big guy here
He looks pretty good
This is a very simple procedure
Won't take but about five minutes
I'm just gonna make
a plaster mold of your foot

- Did she mention Kate?
- She talks about Kate all the time
- I think they're together
What?
Kate left me
I got home and there was a note
saying "I'm leaving" That's it
- No explanation, no nothing
- Jesus What happened?
She's been acting kinda weird lately
I should've seen it coming
Babbling on and on about communication
like I don't know how to communicate
Do you believe this woman?
I'm sorry
Sorry, Mr Cronenworth

There's this poem by Goethe

It's about two people
who come from different places...
but they hear
the same bird singing
"Perhaps the same bird
echoed through both of us yesterday...
separate, in the evening"
That's it Exactly
Wow
Yeah it was Rilke
Rilke Oh
Well, same country
Right?
How'd you know that?
I could tell you some things
Some enchanted evening
You may see a stranger
You may see a stranger
Across a crowded room
I love trees
I could do nothing for the rest
of my lite, just grow trees
The ancients believed that gods
dwelled in them Did you know that?
Maybe they're watching us now
- Do you know where you are?
- No
You're at La Bocca Della Verita

Gregory Peck says
"Let's see you do it"
Yes

Let's do it together
I was born to kiss you

I'm engaged
We're supposed to be married
in nine days
Oh, whoa!
Except possibly that
Wait What?
- You're what?
- He's a friend of yours
- What?
- It's Dwayne
- Dwayne?
- That's how I knew you were here
It was me on the phone
from the airport
- I thought I'd never find you
- I understand I know
It's okay
I gotta--
I gotta call him
No, that's not
such a good idea
- Don't call him
- I gotta call him
- Trust me
- I gotta call him
- I gotta
- Are you sure?
I've never been more sure
of anything in my life
Wait
Oh, okay
- Want some more champagne?
- Mm-mm
- Can I use the phone?
- No, not really
Look
- I have a confession to make too
- Yeah?
Yeah
- You can tell me
- Are you sure?
Yeah
We tound each other, didn't we?
So this is our destiny
So you can tell me anything
Okay
Um, it's just that--
- The thing is, I'm not exactly--
- Yeah?
Only in the most literal sense...
I'm not Damon Bradley
- What?
- My name's not Damon Bradley
- I just told you it was
- What is it?
It's Peter Wright
Obviously you're very upset
That's natural That's okay
I'm sorry!
Everything else is true!
I'm from Boston I'm single
I love trees Mea culpa
I lied about one little thing!
Your identity is one little thing?
- Get out of my way!
- You said you'd understand
That was before
I knew what it was!
- Come on
- Open
Let's calm down, okay?
Let's put this in perspective
Jesus!
I can't believe you're gonna let a few
lefters of the alphabet keep us apart
lt is a detail
- Call me Damon it'll be a nickname
- How could you do this to me?
Because I'm in love with you!
What kind of excuse is that?
Sociopaths
They find out what you want them to be
then they act that way
But how could he know?
He only just met me
Men have ways
That's all I know
Here
You know what my theory is?
Men should all get team jerseys
On the front
they can write "liars"
On the back, their name
Their reaI one
Yeah
Look at me
I married a liar
Why?
'Cause I married a man
Here Throw these in
So you're saying you think
I should call him, huh?
- It's your husband, no?
- Yes
But he was having an affair
I don't think you understand
He was sleeping with another woman
He was having sex
with another woman
Sex
She was your best friend, eh?
- She wasn't my best friend
- Your sister?
No, of course not
His first wife?
No one like that
Nof a friend, relative or anything
Just some woman I don't know
I've never met her or anything
Hey, Marry! Wait up!
- You're going on the south side
- I got it
Don't get up on that roof
till it stops raining
Should let up any minute now
Oh, damn The phone
Larry's Rooting
Kate?
Is that you?
Kate, where are you?
Kate, are you all right?
Jesus!
Yes Could I get
the long-distance operator again?
Forget it
Coming
- I just wanted-- Is she here?
- No
- Oh, we've gotta talk
- I was just on my way out
We can work this out
Is she okay?
She's tine She went to get
our airIine tickets home
Is this a genetic thing?
Men say anything just to get laid?
Not tair
A: I didn't get laid
B: The reality is, some metaphysical
wires got crossed somewhere
I don't have the right name
but I am the guy
I was there I know it
PIease, do not let her go
She's going, and she's
going to marry the podiatrist
- Podiatrist? That's deep
- How could you lie to her like that?
It was an emergency
I literally had to
It was the only way to stop her
It I didn't, I'd never see her again
- A lie's a lie
- PIease! Please?
Will you sit down
for one second?
Thank you
I am not supposed to be in Rome
I'm supposed to be in Boston
leading a really boring lite...
working my can off for my boss
so he can spend half the day in the gym
But I'm here
He was not supposed
to get measles
Measles at years of age
But he did
so they sent me--
a guy who's never been anywhere
except maybe Mazatian...
for spring break
And someone gave me an Italian
phrase book the week before I left
I was not supposed to be
in the piazza that night...
but I was
I went to see a movie
but in my opinion...
Woody Allen is not funny
when it's dubbed in Italian
So I left
and I was just wandering
And then someone bumped into me
And then I saw her
I looked into her eyes and--
Wow, something happened
that's never happened to me before
- Something so familiar
- Mania?
Whatever She fell in love
with me too, by the way
I said, "PIease, God, give me a sign
some way of making sure...
this woman does not get into that cab
and disappear from my life forever
She's the one"
And He did
'cause she told me the name
It wasn't my name
but it was a start
It that's not destiny...
then I don't know anything
That's really romantic
- Is it a lie?
- Come on!
It is a name, for Christ's sake
This whoIe thing is ludicrous
You know she's out of her mind
chasing some guy around
This guy, by the way
could happen to be...
the biggest loser
on the face of the Earth
He could be a grump, a jerk
a pervert, a cynic...
some guy whose mind is intested
with dark thoughts, a criminal
He could be...
truly sick
ReaIistically
what are the odds...
that he's some extra-super
double-terrific guy?
- Ten billion to one
- Exactly!
Do I have an ally?
I have returned
I have returned
Faith's friend, Peter
Giovanni Hi
I thought we could see Roma today
but if you are busy--
No! Faith's friend
Let's go
Good
And my husband Larry
he's a rooter
Roofing contractor, actually
I mean, thank you
Before that
when he was younger, he painted
Not houses but pictures
Yeah But...
You can't raise a family
on paintings
I guess you have to
go back to work now, huh?
Oh, no it's siesta
Oh
You see, at home only the kids
take naps in the afternoon
Adults go straight through
Me, I don't even lie down
at all...
during the day
Yes in America
you care for work
You live to work
You stop for nothing
But in ltaly...
we care for tood
for pleasure...
for love
- Biscuit?
- Yes
It's crunchy
Mm, thank you
I was able to get us out
on the first flight tomorrow morning
: am
: am?
- So soon?
- The sooner the better
You were right about this whole thing
from the beginning
Stupid Chasing a name
- I had to try
- What about Peter?
- Peter?
- Yeah
- Peter was a mistake
- I don't know
Thought he was kinda fun, huh?
He was eccentric at best...
and not in a good way
- You mean, like your way?
- Yeah
No Very funny
What?
You're crazy about him
I am not
You are too
I hate him
That's a strong response for someone
you said you didn't even like
I hated what he did
Good, 'cause that's what I told him
when he dropped off the flowers
You told him
that I hated him?
Can't stand him, huh?
Hey, Katarina
La bella Italia, she's waiting
- Let's go
- I'll be right down
You better start packing
Our cab's coming at the crack of dawn
He promised to take me
on a tour of the fountains
But I'll stay
I'm not gonna go
If you want me to stay, I'll stay
He knows I'm married
I'll be back before dawn
The th century
exalted the human figure
It was their way
of gloritying the human spirit
But it's an ancient preoccupation
You see, the female body...
has always been the essence...
the mystery of human lite
So someday I'll visit you
in Pittsburgh...
and you'll show me
all her beauties, hmm?
Oh, Marcello
I'll need a taxi tomorrow morning
at : to go to the airport
- Okay Thank you
- Ah, Signorina faith
- Yes?
- Peter Wright left messages for you
- He calls all the time
- No phone calls for me
Thank you ow!
You stubbed your toe
I know I stubbed my toe
Well?
- Go away
- Don't you think that's a sign?
- Oh! A sign
- It's obvious
He's a foot doctor, pain is your body's
way to tell you something's wrong
Your toe's trying to tell you
not to marry Dwayne
My toe is telling me
I've been hurt by a shoe salesman
- What about last night?
- What about, you're a liar?
- What about "I was born to kiss you"?
- What about--
Don't you have to work?
Maybe you're not a shoe salesman
The truth is, you came here looking
for something and you found it
It's right in back of you
You're trightened
That's understandable
I couldn't even sleep last night
Peter, stop
Last night was an illusion
You weren't who you said you were
so I wasn't who I thought I was...
so neither of us were there
It wasn't real
It didn't happen
I don't know you
Get to know me
- We're not supposed to be
- Yes, we are
Don't throw your lite away
on someone you don't love
Who says I don't love him?
Uh, all right
Go home and marry your podiatrist
I hope you'll be
very happy together
Oh, I'm sorry
Oh, okay all right
Faith!
Wait, wait!
You can't go
- Why can't I go?
- Because I found him
Stop the car
Whoa! I'm okay
I couldn't sleep last night
For some reason, I was a wreck
So what did I do? I went
to that restaurant, La Galeassi
You want me to take that for you?
I had a chocolate gelato
I talked to the waiter
asked him a couple of questions
Turns out-- I'll get it--
He knew the name of Damon's hotel
- You're kidding
- No, it's right
I call the hotel
They say, "No, he left yesterday"
But apparently he comes here every year
and always follows the same route
He always goes from Rome
down the coast...
to La Sirenuse Hotel
in Positano
- Where's Positano?
- Three hours south
- Did I do the right thing?
- Great! We can call Giovanni
- What? It's perfect
- He can drive us
- We can all go down together
- It's really perfect
I did the right thing
She won't say it
You did
You know what I think?
Anything can happen here
Kate, look down there
Magnifico
Oh, God
Oh is it over?
Where's the guy
with the checkered flag?
Okay, faith Hold on
Oh, my God

He says he wears
a gold medallion
- Want to check out the pool?
- Mm-hmm

Do you believe in destiny?
It is written...
on the stars
My son Kyle is in the third grade
He's really the smart one
My other son is very...
physical, I guess
would be the term
You think I'm just
one of those men...
who tries to seduce
every woman he meets
Oh, I know that's what you are
Does it matter?
I've told you all about me
- I want to hear about you
- All right
What kind of books do you like?
What music do you listen to?
- I like action films

I like Van Damme movies
I love martial art films
Really?
You don't like opera?
I'm surprised to hear that
- Giovanni, I'm sorry

You are so ungratetul Do you know
what kind of planning this took?
This was a major production
I did it all for us!
Thank you very much
I hope you're very happy!
I don't believe in anything anymore!
I don't believe in the moon or stars
or the sun or destiny...
or magic or men!
Why won't you accept the fact that
I'll do anything to keep us together?
You've outdone yourself!
You're gonna miss me
when I'm gone
You're nuts about me!
We're made for each other!
Haven't they ever heard
of escalators?
You didn't mean what you said about not
believing in the stars and the moon?
- You?
- I--
I can't
I can't now
I'm sorry for dragging you here
No, don't say you're sorry...
'cause this has been the best weekend
of my entire lite
I guess sometimes life just doesn't
turn out the way we imagined it
Look at the stars
They come out every night
To almost love a woman
and then lose her
Enjoy the pain
It's like losing at roulette
There's that sweet sting
Oh, Jesus, Harry
There's only one woman...
and she's gone
Are you all right?
- Yes
- Can I get you something?
No, thank you
I just would like you
to send this very quickly
Yes

The whole thing was a joke
