[00:10.336] ALISON: Caption: I leapt out of the closet and four months later, my father killed himself by stepping in front of a truck...
[00:21.525] While I was in college... exploding into my new life... you were sitting here, reading a book
[00:34.911] SMALL ALISON: Daddy, you saw the Leaning Tower of Pisa one time, right?
[00:39.046] BRUCE: I did... What's that?
[00:42.409] SMALL ALISON: In school, we're learning maps and globes and Ms. Winsor said draw a map of all the places people in our family have been to.
[00:48.205] They're for showing in class tomorrow
[00:51.750] BRUCE: What's this?
[00:53.055] SMALL ALISON: Okay, so this is a keystone because Pennsylvania is the Keystone State.
[00:57.519] Inside this square, that's Beech Creek... See?
[01:01.450] Bridge, Ford Creek, school, Fun Home, our house, uh, Aunt Jean and Uncle Randy's house
[01:08.289] This is Germany. Oh! John, Christian, me. See?
[01:13.506] Floating in bubbles because we're not born yet.
[01:16.827] BRUCE: That is very interesting. Now, let me show you how we could make it better.
[01:22.050] You have the potential to become a real artist.
[01:25.418] Do you know that? You do.
[01:28.279] But, you have to study the forms, you have to learn the rules.
[01:32.222] Now, let's talk about composition. Now, this is all over the place. Pick one area.
[01:37.607] SMALL ALISON: Hmm... the Keystone State!
[01:39.679] BRUCE: No, that's still too much. Here, watch this
[01:43.787] Okay, I'm going to draw our mountains...
[01:47.475] See? See that? See how I'm shading them. That gives them dimension
[01:55.486] (sung) Make this part look rugged, mhmm
[01:58.617] Allegheny Plateau
[02:01.429] This dark shaded stripe, bum bum bum
[02:05.087] Is the front
[02:06.659] And paint the long ridges and valleys below, mhmm
[02:13.487] SMALL ALISON: I want the whole state
[02:14.531] BRUCE: I'm trying to explain to you, you can't do that.
[02:17.316] SMALL ALISON: But, let me try!
[02:17.841] BRUCE: No, Allison. This is how it should look.
[02:19.395] SMALL ALISON: But I like the way mine looks!
[02:20.441] BRUCE: No you can't do that unless you want to ruin it!
[02:22.262] I'm trying to teach you something important!
[02:24.264] HELEN: Bruce, it's a drawing. It doesn't matter
[02:28.131] BRUCE: It doesn't matter? She's taking it into to school. She's showing it in class...
[02:32.682] You know what, nevermind.
[02:35.047] You want to take some half-baked mess into school. You want to embarrass yourself.
[02:38.990] Doesn't matter to me. Do what you want. I don't care
[02:42.363] SMALL ALLISON: No, I... I like the one you did Daddy
