there were a lot of football games and
4.93
359.94
people cheering and you know
6.389
362.53
cheerleaders of that method people like
8.85
364.87
Bing Crosby did power Betty Grable these
5.861
368.919
are the stars of 1930s you mean you mean
3.16
373.72
I am paying
5.1
374.78
came to America in search of Betty
6.39
376.88
Grable and sure leaders in search of
7.41
379.88
that lifestyle which I like it's a it's
5.369
383.27
a free and easy type of lifestyle and at
4.29
387.29
the same time I assume they learn
6.201
388.639
something in the process the story will
3.26
391.58
continue after this
4.01
397.45
last summer Pei was one of the honored
5.01
399.94
Americans at the Statue of Liberty
6.22
401.46
celebration 32 years after he and his
5.82
404.95
wife Eileen decided to become American
6.06
407.68
citizens they had little choice China
5.43
410.77
had become communist pay could not go
6.84
413.74
back it was in the Polo Grounds that I
6.48
416.2
was sworn in with 10,000 others it was a
4.11
420.58
difficult moment for me where tears in
4.19
422.68
my eyes it was a very happy moment
5.88
424.69
obviously but the same time is also
6.82
426.87
somewhat they're commenting and we saw
5.88
430.57
like cutting the roots you know and that
5.13
433.69
and that time I wasn't sure my roots in
5.4
436.45
America was firm enough and deep enough
6
438.82
to carry me on do you see one a minute
5.04
441.85
but pay became not only American but the
3.51
444.82
kind of architect Jacqueline Kennedy
4.77
446.89
would turn to for one of those
6.6
448.33
peculiarly American memorials the John F
5.76
451.66
Kennedy Library outside Boston it's a
5.97
454.93
case study in the way an architect uses
6.87
457.42
steel and mortar and glass to capture an
5.58
460.9
idea it's been a long time and it's such
3.9
464.29
a happy day and a beautiful day and so
4.38
466.48
many people have worked so long to make
5.25
468.19
it happen she would say well you know
5.93
470.86
the president there's anything that I
6.06
473.44
want I want this building to reflect his
5.29
476.79
person and that's as simple as that but
5.13
479.5
it's at enormous charge on the one hand
5.49
482.08
the schoolchildren that gave nickels and
5.67
484.63
dimes to this project wanted him to be
5.43
487.57
larger than life but at the same time I
5.22
490.3
can imagine that this being a memorial
5.69
493
like the Lincoln Memorial I can't
4.38
495.52
imagine that I cannot imagine huge
6.49
498.69
columns
8
499.9
you know stone men and and Lincoln three
6.15
505.18
or four times life-size sitting in
5.29
507.9
Carson Bronx that's not Kennedy you know
5.19
511.33
for better for worse the solution isn't
7.23
513.19
that huge space we created huge huge
6.12
516.52
glass enclosure you know that one after
5.37
520.42
you've seen the exhibit the story of the
4.04
522.64
life of John Kennedy his family and so
3.05
525.79
on
4.11
526.68
very intense
5.61
528.84
interesting very intense and then you
6.57
530.79
emerge into this big room there's
4.56
534.45
nothing there in this room that was my
5.94
537.36
idea I didn't want anything there
8.28
539.01
no bus mrs. Kennedy said no bus no
6.45
543.3
statue she was absolutely right no bus
4.5
547.29
no statue but then you cannot just make
6
549.75
an indifferent space it could have been
6.09
551.79
for us anyone offers he was President of
5.73
555.75
the United States so it's a big American
6.06
557.88
flag that's done now we still have an
6.23
561.48
empty room but the emptiness of that
6.9
563.94
room with the big flag is right because
7.15
567.71
every visitor well maybe after they have
6.75
570.84
seen the exhibit and come out they don't
7.17
574.86
want to say he was the greatest man in
6.36
577.59
the world the individual the boy and the
4.74
582.03
girl or the man and the woman can make
7.32
583.95
up his and her own mind about this man
7.53
586.77
and the emptiness turned out to be the
4.77
591.27
right solution was that a nervous moment
5.07
594.3
for you when you brought it to her to
5.34
596.04
show her the model well I I was so
5.25
599.37
convinced of it it's probably I didn't
6.12
601.38
expect any other reaction except say yes
3.93
604.62
this is right but I have to say that she
3.87
607.5
accepted it right away
6.8
608.55
because it somehow seemed to fit in with
7.74
611.37
her vision her idea what Janet Kennedy
6.55
615.35
was and that's what pays colleagues say
5.49
619.11
he does best the dreaming not the
5.22
621.9
drawing he thinks about a project for
4.44
624.6
months walks the land absorbs the mood
5.52
627.12
and then tells his colleagues what he
6
629.04
has in mind and they begin to draw are
4.29
632.64
you offended by a lot of the building
6.51
635.04
you see in America the buildings being
7.05
636.93
torn down the ones being put up I'm I
5.94
641.55
cannot be offended by that of this not
