Kenako amaphatikizanso izi poyankha funso ili: 

Wosewera wokalamba uyu wazaka 80, yemwe kukumbukira kwake kwakuthwa ndi kuthekera kwakuthupi kwayamba kuchepa, amapanga gawo lomwe amakhala, kuchita, kulemba, kujambula, ndikupanga chikondi. Amayang'anira izi pogwiritsa ntchito kuthekera (kupitilira, chibadwa) kukhala m'malo ndi nthawi yopitilira imodzi. Amayambira pampando wake woyenda poyenda osachoka. Kuyenda kwake kumachitika pakadenga kakang'ono pansi pake ndi kumbuyo kwake. Mumuimbireni mlandu wodziyesa wokha ngati mungafune, koma amadzipangira yekha ntchito, amasunga alendo ake okondwerera komanso okondwerera akale. Ndipo, amasangalala ndi maubwenzi osangalatsa ndi wojambula wokongola komanso waluso, Vivien Leigh. Amalongosola dziko la Utopian ndikuthekera kwake kufikira zomwe anakumana nazo kudzera mu chinthu china chofananira ndi kuchuluka kwa kuchuluka; kutanthauza kulumikizana kosakhala kwanuko.

Kuyankhulana kosangalatsa kuti tizinena zochepa.

Monga tanenera, tinali ndi mafunso ena owonjezera a Maggart. Mwamwayi, zomwe zaperekedwa kuchokera m'buku lake zimayankha zina mwazo. Izi ndi zomwe adatipatsa kuchokera m'buku lake lomwe likubweralo Kumbuyo Kwa Maso Otere Amisala Amanama:

"Asanayambe kuwombera, Jackson adanditumiza kukawonera kanema wa Fritz Lang, M, Ndi Peter Lorre. Cholinga chake ndikuti umunthu wina uli mkati mwa munthu ngakhale wachita milandu yoipitsitsa. Atakumana ndi anthu okwiya omwe akufuna kumupha, a Peter Lorre akuchonderera mlandu wawo kuti: "Mutha kupanga chisankho chondipha kapena kusandipha. Ndikapha, sinditha kudzithandiza ndekha: ”Chifukwa chakuti ogona ana alibe chochita? Koma, kwa ine, Harry (Santa) anali kuchita zomwe amaganiza kuti ayenera kuchita. Ndipo, samatha kumvetsetsa chifukwa chomwe anthu okhala m'matauni okwiya sankawona kuti akuchita zomwe amayenera kuchita ... Mphotho ya "zabwino" ndikulanga "oyipa." (Inde, ndinagwa pa ayezi woterera. Sanapweteke)

Panali zochitika zomwe sindimatha kuzimvetsetsa. “Ndichita bwanji izi?” Nthawi yoyamba nditawauza a Jackson za vuto langa, adandipatsa mayankho abwino: "Sizachilendo." Pambuyo pake, ndinali wopanda nyumba. “Ndine penti pachithunzichi.” Jackson ndi wojambula.

Kumwa kwanga sikunathebe mpaka nditakwanitsa zaka makumi atatu. (Ndakhala wosaganiza kwa zaka zopitilira makumi atatu ndi zitatu, tsopano) Nthawi ina, ndimakhala ndikutenga gawo lotsogola mufilimu yotchedwa, yazinthu zonse: Choipa Cha Khrisimasi. Sindinamwe mowa pantchito, koma nditatha kugwira ntchito pamalo, komanso paulendo wanga wautali wa limo kubwerera kunyumba kwanga ku Riverside Drive, a Jack Daniels anali mnzanga wolimba. Kanemayo adalembedwa ndikuwongoleredwa ndi wachinyamata wanzeru kwambiri komanso wodzipereka wotchedwa Lewis Jackson.

Ndinagwira ntchitoyi chifukwa ndimafunikira ntchito. Ndidayesa mayeso, ndipo ndidapambana. Ichi ndichifukwa chake ndidatenga ntchitoyi. Osewera ambiri amati amatenga ntchito pokhapokha atasanthula komanso kutsutsana. Ndinali ndikuwona Maureen Stapleton wodabwitsa akufunsidwa pawonetsero yamadzulo masiteshoni ya NBC ku New York, atafunsidwa momwe amasankhira ntchito zake. Analingalira mofunsa funsolo nati, “Choyamba, ndaliŵerenga. Ndikapanda kusiya, ndayamba ntchitoyo. ”

Koma, pankhaniyi, ntchitoyi inali yophunzira mwanzeru za momwe mwana wachinyamata wosavuta, yemwe adauzidwa kuti Santa Claus anali "wabwino," amathera zomvetsa chisoni. Kuchokera pachiwonetsero choyamba, mnyamatayo, akuganiza kuti amva Santa pansi, apeza chowopsa chomwe chikuchitika pakati pa amayi ake ndi Santa, tikudziwa kuti izi sizitha bwino. Mnyamatayo akuthamangira m'chipinda chake ndipo atakwiya mwangozi adadula dzanja lake. Tikayandikira, timawona magazi akuyenda m'manja mwake. Ndi chofiira. Ndiwofiira waukali. Pali zofiira kwambiri mufilimuyi yonse.

(Imodzi mwamawu ambiri olembedwa bwino a Fiona imalongosola bwino mtundu wake wofiira: (Fiona yemwe akutchulidwayo ndi Fiona Apple, mwana wanga.)

"Koma wakhala wachikasu kwambiri / Ndipo ndakhala ngati buluu / Koma zonse zomwe ndikutha kuwona ndizofiira, zofiira, zofiira, zofiira, zofiira tsopano / Ndichita chiyani")

Popeza sinali "kanema wowopsa," pamalonda, kanemayo adalephera, koma pambuyo pake adaonekera ndipo, malinga ndi ena, idasandulika "mbiri yakale yaboma." Kanemayo amawonetsedwa munthawi ya Khrisimasi chaka chilichonse m'nyumba zosankhira zamatsenga. Mwina Jackson sanabwere ndi kanema yemwe anali nawo m'malingaliro, koma, momwemo, adagwira ntchito yabwino kwambiri. Lewis Jackson akuti, "Ndi kanema yemwe sangafe."
