1
00:05:56,356 --> 00:05:58,609
This right here, that’s how the
Simple Plan movie should start.
2
00:06:00,736 --> 00:06:01,904
What do you think?
3
00:06:08,660 --> 00:06:09,578
Rolling?
4
00:07:37,457 --> 00:07:39,458
I've lost all other identity
I may have had;
5
00:07:39,459 --> 00:07:40,878
I’m Chuck's dad.
6
00:07:43,380 --> 00:07:46,007
Charles came in one morning,
it was his birthday,
7
00:07:46,008 --> 00:07:48,050
and he said:
"I found a drum set."
8
00:07:48,051 --> 00:07:50,720
I told my wife Françoise:
"Don't worry, it's just a phase.
9
00:07:50,721 --> 00:07:53,055
In a few weeks,
he'll be done with it."
10
00:07:53,056 --> 00:07:56,059
But I was very wrong.
Because...
11
00:07:59,313 --> 00:08:02,690
The day the drum set arrived,
the friends also came with it.
12
00:08:02,691 --> 00:08:04,400
Then came the guitars,
13
00:08:04,401 --> 00:08:07,154
and a few days later,
they were making music.
14
00:08:27,674 --> 00:08:31,010
The first time I met Pierre,
he showed up with orange hair.
15
00:08:31,011 --> 00:08:33,262
I was slightly worried.
16
00:08:33,263 --> 00:08:35,265
"Who’s this new friend?"
17
00:08:50,906 --> 00:08:53,492
Come on, what is that?
18
00:18:27,982 --> 00:18:30,442
Thank you for being here
for our first show ever!
19
00:18:30,443 --> 00:18:33,404
- Very glad you’re here!
- Our first-ever show!
20
00:18:37,450 --> 00:18:40,370
{\an8}Everybody, make some noise!
21
00:19:20,869 --> 00:19:22,494
When your first album came out,
22
00:19:22,495 --> 00:19:24,580
I was 7 years old. Music wasn't
a part of my life then.
23
00:19:24,581 --> 00:19:26,124
It all started
with I'd Do Anything.
24
00:19:26,624 --> 00:19:29,167
I swear! I remember
the feeling I had,
25
00:19:29,168 --> 00:19:31,128
sitting in the back seat
of the car.
26
00:19:31,129 --> 00:19:32,630
I never liked music before that.
27
00:19:33,506 --> 00:19:35,633
My dad couldn't stand
hearing you anymore.
28
00:19:39,137 --> 00:19:40,054
Nice!
29
00:19:40,763 --> 00:19:42,222
Alright, thanks so much.
30
00:19:42,223 --> 00:19:45,851
I still have the CD my dad
burned for me when I was 14.
31
00:19:45,852 --> 00:19:47,520
I still play it
in my fucking car.
32
00:19:49,063 --> 00:19:51,441
I love it when you meet people
who go:
33
00:19:51,858 --> 00:19:55,278
"I'm not a fan of Simple Plan,
but I fucking loved Reset."
34
00:19:59,198 --> 00:20:01,116
That's a small? A medium, then.
35
00:20:01,117 --> 00:20:02,660
Do you want a poutine?
36
00:20:03,286 --> 00:20:04,828
A classic?
37
00:20:04,829 --> 00:20:06,915
Two medium classic poutines, please.
38
00:20:13,755 --> 00:20:15,213
To be honest,
39
00:20:15,214 --> 00:20:17,175
all my life,
I heard your songs...
40
00:20:18,343 --> 00:20:20,344
and I thought you were American.
41
00:20:20,345 --> 00:20:21,762
I don't have an accent
42
00:20:21,763 --> 00:20:24,014
because I learned French
and English at the same time.
43
00:20:24,015 --> 00:20:25,390
Are you Québécois?
44
00:20:25,391 --> 00:20:27,768
Yes. My mom is anglophone
and my dad is francophone.
45
00:20:27,769 --> 00:20:29,895
I'm touched
that you're Québécois.
46
00:20:29,896 --> 00:20:31,063
- Good night.
- Take care.
47
00:20:31,064 --> 00:20:32,273
Thanks for the kind words.
48
00:22:38,066 --> 00:22:40,276
522-****.
49
00:27:29,607 --> 00:27:32,109
Patrick's been pretty useless
up until now.
50
00:29:34,023 --> 00:29:36,859
I'm a municipal
lawyer in Québec.
51
00:29:38,527 --> 00:29:41,946
I read his contract...
I didn't understand much.
52
00:29:41,947 --> 00:29:44,240
But one thing struck me:
53
00:29:44,241 --> 00:29:47,161
"The territory: the world."
54
00:34:02,666 --> 00:34:04,293
I'm so stressed out.
55
00:34:04,877 --> 00:34:06,003
- You?
- Yeah.
56
00:36:15,757 --> 00:36:18,593
{\an8}We're going to Chicago tomorrow
to play with Sugar Ray.
57
00:36:18,594 --> 00:36:20,636
{\an8}A lot of people
are counting on you
58
00:36:20,637 --> 00:36:25,224
{\an8}to put the Montreal
punk rock scene on the map.
59
00:36:25,225 --> 00:36:28,562
They'll be famous
everywhere in North America!
60
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:14,483
I’ll turn that off.
61
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:17,277
Is anybody gonna save me?
62
00:37:23,033 --> 00:37:24,076
Sorry.
63
00:37:25,369 --> 00:37:26,286
Yes!
64
00:37:54,940 --> 00:37:56,233
Hey, Pierre!
65
00:38:10,747 --> 00:38:12,874
I'm going to Peoria, Illinois.
66
00:50:03,042 --> 00:50:04,335
Hello!
67
00:50:05,545 --> 00:50:06,838
How's it going?
68
00:50:08,381 --> 00:50:10,133
Our albums are...
69
00:54:11,123 --> 00:54:12,208
They're back from Japan.
70
00:59:45,958 --> 00:59:48,418
Please welcome Québec’s
most popular band
71
00:59:48,419 --> 00:59:49,586
in the world.
Here is Simple Plan.
72
01:00:17,072 --> 01:00:18,699
Make some noise!
73
01:02:31,957 --> 01:02:35,377
I'm fucking fed up, man.
I need a break.
74
01:03:53,580 --> 01:03:55,831
The label spent
so much on this album!
75
01:03:55,832 --> 01:03:57,584
It must have
cost them millions!
76
01:09:17,821 --> 01:09:19,406
Seriously, man.
77
01:10:24,179 --> 01:10:25,305
You alright?
78
01:10:55,543 --> 01:10:56,711
I love you.
79
01:15:22,560 --> 01:15:26,188
We had a PO box
for Simple Plan's fan mail.
80
01:15:26,189 --> 01:15:27,856
The post office would call me:
"Mr. Comeau,
81
01:15:27,857 --> 01:15:30,108
there's a lot of mail."
82
01:15:30,109 --> 01:15:32,153
There were
literally bags of letters.
83
01:15:32,779 --> 01:15:34,988
That's when I realized
84
01:15:34,989 --> 01:15:38,034
how much of an impact they were
having on kids around the world.
85
01:17:14,839 --> 01:17:17,925
As I read their mail,
there were quite a few letters
86
01:17:18,343 --> 01:17:20,469
sad letters.
87
01:17:20,470 --> 01:17:24,514
It led to the idea of setting
up the Simple Plan Foundation.
88
01:17:24,515 --> 01:17:29,311
That’s another thing Simple Plan
has allowed me to embrace:
89
01:17:29,312 --> 01:17:30,813
philanthropy.
90
01:17:43,993 --> 01:17:45,870
We couldn't do this without you.
91
01:20:21,359 --> 01:20:23,026
Will you come to the studio?
92
01:20:23,027 --> 01:20:23,945
Yeah!
93
01:21:34,432 --> 01:21:40,771
SIMPLE PLAN’S BASSIST
LEAVES THE BAND AMID ALLEGATIONS
94
01:22:31,238 --> 01:22:33,615
- Do you think it's safe?
- Do it.
95
01:22:33,616 --> 01:22:35,325
Careful, Charles,
I don't want to fall.
96
01:22:35,326 --> 01:22:36,160
Go.
97
01:24:03,914 --> 01:24:06,625
I'll miss you a lot.
98
01:24:44,121 --> 01:24:47,333
I always saw myself
as someone who’s on tour.
99
01:24:47,750 --> 01:24:50,419
I was in a band, on the road
and sometimes I’d go home.
100
01:24:51,086 --> 01:24:53,713
Now, I'm a husband and a father.
101
01:24:53,714 --> 01:24:56,759
I love being at home.
And sometimes, I go on tour.
102
01:24:57,510 --> 01:25:00,303
Do you like being on tour?
You like the pace?
103
01:25:00,304 --> 01:25:02,514
- Yeah, you like it!
- I love it!
104
01:25:02,515 --> 01:25:04,349
I'm so happy you're here.
105
01:25:04,350 --> 01:25:07,602
Being together makes it
so much better.
106
01:25:07,603 --> 01:25:09,896
Instead of video calls,
you're here.
107
01:25:09,897 --> 01:25:12,566
It changes everything.
108
01:26:39,570 --> 01:26:42,698
- Hello!
- Hi London, how's it going?
109
01:26:43,240 --> 01:26:44,867
- Good.
- Look.
110
01:26:46,577 --> 01:26:47,994
Cute, right?
111
01:26:47,995 --> 01:26:49,747
They're all photos of you.
112
01:26:55,502 --> 01:26:56,378
I love you.
113
01:26:58,672 --> 01:27:00,883
I just got to the hotel,
just wanted to say good night.
114
01:27:17,858 --> 01:27:21,027
The dream was so big
115
01:27:21,028 --> 01:27:24,823
that it eclipsed
everything else in his life.
116
01:27:37,503 --> 01:27:40,338
Charles would come upstairs
to do his homework,
117
01:27:40,339 --> 01:27:42,049
and he'd say:
"I'm dropping out of school."
118
01:27:42,716 --> 01:27:44,467
"No, Charles, you're not."
119
01:27:44,468 --> 01:27:46,845
He explained that music couldn’t
wait, it had to happen now.
120
01:27:47,805 --> 01:27:50,974
I remember Sébastien
wanting to study engineering.
121
01:27:50,975 --> 01:27:53,643
Jeff was at the Classical Music
Conservatory.
122
01:27:53,644 --> 01:27:57,188
At home,
I was the one encouraging them.
123
01:27:57,189 --> 01:28:00,734
I felt slightly guilty
towards the other parents.
124
01:28:01,235 --> 01:28:02,444
He makes beautiful songs.
125
01:28:04,196 --> 01:28:07,324
And the lyrics, they hit home...
126
01:28:08,701 --> 01:28:11,078
{\an8}not only for me, but for
a lot of other people as well.
127
01:28:13,122 --> 01:28:14,123
That's it.
128
01:28:36,645 --> 01:28:39,105
We have to nurture
our kid's dreams
129
01:28:39,106 --> 01:28:41,400
to see where those dreams
will lead us.
