a fourteen-year-old...
...is just as effective as one from
a forty-year-old.
Often more effective.
No one can stop this bath of blood.
It's not "bath of blood."
It's "bloodbath."
Thank you.
But I prefer it my way.
I am not going to pay your asking price.
We are not a rich people.
And besides,
the market is already flooded with
your Kalashnikovs.
Do you realize in some parts of
my country
you can get one for the price of a chicken?
But you can't just consider unit price.
You forget ancillary costs.
End-user certificates need to be
forged and notarized,
Shell companies set up,
insurance purchased,
pilots and crews hired.
Not to mention bribes.
You can't get a nut and bolt out
of the Eastern Bloc without a bribe.
There's one bribe for the nut,
another for the bolt.
Andy... Andy, listen to me.
This is an expensive proposition.
"Andy"?
I am going to pay you in timber or stones.
I'll take the stones.
It's kind of hard to get a tree trunk
into my hand luggage.
I know you're planning a new offensive.
If you can delay a week,
I can get you armored personnel carriers.
They'd greatly reduce your casualties...
...and give you a significant
strategic advantage.
You know, they call me
the Lord Of War.
But perhaps it is you.
It's not "Lord Of War," it's "Warlord."
Thank you, but I prefer it my way.
Conflict diamonds are a common
currency in West Africa,
also referred to as "blood diamonds"
since bloodshed is what they
generally finance.
By the late '90s, my wealth had caught up
to my lies about my wealth.
Even surpassed my lies.
I could even afford to become a
patron of the arts.
It's just that I can't believe it.
Well, of... of course, it's wonderful.
I just...
I didn't expect it to happen so soon.
Yes. Well, that wou-that would be
great, too yeah.
It's wonderful. Thank you so much.
It's... Yuri. Okay, thank you. Bye.
Yuri, that was the dealer on the phone.
I just sold my first painting.
Aah! That's fantastic.
Uh, who bought it?
It's someone important.
They want to remain anonymous.
This is so wonderful!
How was your trip?
You know, same old, same old.
Where's Nicki?
Oh, in bed, I'm sorry.
He couldn't stay up.
That's best.
My first painting!
I'm officially an artist!
This calls for a drink.
What doesn't?
Hi.
Yuri, this is uh...
Candy.
Candy. Of course.
Any friend of my brother's is a...
friend of my brother's.
You have a beautiful... everything.
Yes, he does.
Yes, I do.
I'm going to kiss Nicki goodnight.
Okay.
How are you, brother?
Well, you know,
still the resident family fuckup.
Yeah. Well, I guess someone has
to do it.
Well.
Hey, Ava knows, right?
I never want to say anything,
She doesn't have to know.
She understands.
She's a survivor, like me.
She may be a survivor,
but she's not like you.
Really She doesn't know
how you pay for all this
We don't talk about it.
How many car salesman talk
about their work? Huh?
How many cigarette salesmen?
Both their products kill more people
every year than mine.
At least mine has a safety switch.
If those guys can leave their work
at the office,
so can I.
God damn, you are good!
You really are.
You almost had me convinced.
Could you...
could you help me out with...
Why?
Why?
Why?
Why what?
Why?
Why?
I don't know.
Why...
I don't know.
Why what?
Why're you so fucked up all the time?
Because I am. I don't know.
I didn't know how much Ava
really knew...
and how much she ignored.
She never questioned how a guy
in the transport business...
could afford to give her 18 carat
diamond earrings.
I guess she didn't want to hear the answer.
Mostly, She seemed content
that I was a good provider...
and as far as she was concerned, loyal.
Despite the other women...
I always made love to Ava
as if she was the only one.
I'm not saying I didn't have setbacks.
It's not called gunrunning for nothing.
You gotta be fast on your feet.
Some revolutions blow over
the guns
