[woman] Monkeys, giraffes, tigers, lions...
[man] Yeah
[woman] Keep me away from the reptiles; I'll get sick
I only like snake jewelry. Love it
[man] Exactly, and I like snake skin
[woman] Well, we have a lot in common. We could get married
- [man laughs] - The odd couple
[man] The odd couple... not so odd, actually
It's the rest of the world that's odd, Iris
[Iris] You happen to be absolutely right
♪ [music] ♪
Where are we going? Let's see it
[Duro] Tiger territory
[Iris] Oh. You know, tigers are good swimmers
[barks]
Do you feel sometimes that
people expect you to perform? - Oh yes
[bird chirping]
People like you to be a trained monkey
[Duro] What do you really think people think of you?
[Iris] I tell you the truth, I never think about it
[Duro] Good
[Iris] I do things because I love them, and
I don't want to do anything to displease Carl
or my mother when she was here
- Yeah - But if people don't like it
it's their problem, not mine - I know
So I'm not going to stress about it
But Carl gets you, and you get Carl
Well, I hope so. It's 65 years
I guess it's a good track record
[Duro] When you think of Carl, what do you think of?
What word comes to your mind?
[Iris] Pussycat. Pussycat...
[lip smack]
[Duro] Do you love the chase or thrill of owning?
[Iris] Oh, the chase, the chase
You really don't own anything, you just sort of...
You're only here for a short time
so you kind of rent it
if you think about things that way
[Duro] True
Do you think you've always had to fight
for things you believed in aesthetically?
[Iris] Oh, absolutely Nobody understands anything
They just say it has to be like it was
Oh look! He has fringe at the mound!
- I know, he has fringe. - How decorative he is!
- Beautiful, huh? - Snooty, snooty. Look at that!
Nose in the air. Maybe he's an aristocrat
[Duro] Let's talk about mating rituals
Love and sex
[Iris] Well, love is wonderful
I think it's mutuality
liking the same things
having respect for each other
Sex has something to do with it
but real love is not sex
I don't think today...
young people don't seem to understand
anything about relationships
They're so attached to buttons
and pressing buttons
that they have no time for anything human
Oh, it's much easier to jump into somebody's
pants than to get into somebody's head
[Duro] Yeah. You're right
[Iris] Oh, what's that over there?
- Those are pigs - That's what I thought
I'll have to tell Miss Piggy
[Duro laughs]
Are any one of you guys interested in Miss Piggy?
Are you related to Kermit?
[Duro chuckles]
Kermit lives with me in Palm Beach
[Duro] Did you like zoos as a child?
[Iris] Oh, I always loved zoos
Animals, I think, are much better than people
[Duro] Why?
[Iris] Well, I think they're more honest
you know, if they like you, or they don't like you
Well, especially, I don't know
so much about these animals
but I know a lot about dogs
[Duro] Mmm. Porcupine
[Iris] That's pretty stupid, spend your life digging
♪ [music] ♪
Oh, I love it! Aha!
Where are the penguins?
- They're on holiday, Iris - Mmm
[Duro] Are you religious?
[Iris] My own way. I don't observe
I don't go to temple, but I
I believe in God, and I pray, and...
[Duro] What's your favorite thing to do on a Sunday morning?
[Iris] Sleep
Where's Duro?
Most people, really, I find so boring
I don't want to talk to them
And sometimes I like to be left alone
[Duro] What do you do when you're left alone?
[Iris] I like to sit and think
I really enjoy thinking
[Duro] Yes
