William has a strained relationship with Edward because his father has always told exaggerated stories about his life, and William thinks he's never really told the truth. Even on his deathbed, Edward recounts fantastical anecdotes. When William, who is a journalist, starts to investigate his father's tales, he begins to understand the man and his penchant for storytelling.

EDWARD (cont’d) He was filling her basket. He was making deliveries around back.
As Edward continues, she can’t help but laugh harder, especially as the metaphors get more vulgar.
EDWARD (cont’d) He was buttering her rolls. Pumpingher churn. Splashing milk in her box.
JOSEPHINE:
Stop.
EDWARD:
They were squeezing the cheese.
Clanking the bottles. Licking thepopsicle.
51.
She’s starting to cry from laughing.
EDWARD (cont’d) Cracking the eggs and making an omelet.
With that, he stops. She regains her composure.
EDWARD (cont’d) Spooning the sherbet.
JOSEPHINE: (interrupting) Can I take your picture?
EDWARD:
You don’t need a picture. Just look uphandsome in the dictionary.
JOSEPHINE: Please?
He rolls his eyes, why not.
Josephine leaves, heading down the hall to get her camera.
We STAY WITH Edward in bed.
JOSEPHINE (O.S.) (cont’d) I have photos from the wedding to show you. There’s a great one of you and myfather. I had an extra print made.
Edward grimaces, a flash of pain. Around others, he’s hidinghow much it hurts, but alone we can see how bad it is.
He controls his breathing, trying to push through it.
JOSEPHINE (O.S.) (cont'd) I want to see pictures of your wedding.
I’ve never seen any.
She returns with her camera. Edward smiles, doing a good jobmasking the pain.
EDWARD:
That’s because we didn’t have a wedding. Your mother-in-law was never supposed to marry me. She was engagedto somebody else.
JOSEPHINE: (loading film) I never knew.
