1
00:00:10,100 --> 00:00:15,305
THE BAND WAGON
2
00:01:38,263 --> 00:01:42,215
Yes, ladies and gentlemen,
we are in luck today here in Los Angeles.
3
00:01:42,519 --> 00:01:44,890
Through the years,
the Bullwinkle Galleries...
4
00:01:44,979 --> 00:01:46,687
have brought up for auction...
5
00:01:46,773 --> 00:01:50,982
many collections of the personal effects
of your famous movie stars.
6
00:01:51,067 --> 00:01:52,145
AUCTION SALE
7
00:01:52,234 --> 00:01:55,485
But today is indeed a red-letter day.
8
00:01:55,572 --> 00:01:58,442
The personal effects of Tony Hunter!
9
00:01:58,825 --> 00:01:59,987
Lot 94.
10
00:02:00,159 --> 00:02:04,027
Ladies and gentlemen,
let's start out with Lot 94.
11
00:02:04,664 --> 00:02:09,124
Some of the potpourri
of Mr. Hunter's own personal costumes...
12
00:02:09,501 --> 00:02:13,084
that he used in his famous
dancing-singing pictures.
13
00:02:13,297 --> 00:02:16,416
Remember this?
Perhaps the most famous top hat...
14
00:02:16,508 --> 00:02:18,417
and stick of our generation.
15
00:02:18,510 --> 00:02:22,424
Yes, the one he used
in Swinging Down to Panama...
16
00:02:22,514 --> 00:02:24,636
and all his other famous pictures.
17
00:02:25,016 --> 00:02:28,633
Let's start with $5. Do I hear $5?
18
00:02:29,186 --> 00:02:31,095
It's worth a lot more.
19
00:02:31,522 --> 00:02:33,848
All right. Let's start with $2.
20
00:02:34,401 --> 00:02:37,436
Well? 50 cents?
21
00:02:39,489 --> 00:02:40,769
Anything?
22
00:02:49,373 --> 00:02:52,706
Just one more for the road.
About 20 minutes to New York.
23
00:02:52,792 --> 00:02:54,121
Bottoms up.
24
00:02:57,421 --> 00:03:00,256
- So you're from California?
- That's right. Sunny Cal.
25
00:03:00,340 --> 00:03:02,748
- Sunny Cal?
- Yeah. Sunny Cal.
26
00:03:03,051 --> 00:03:06,751
Say, you're from Sunny Cal. I bet
you know a lot of movie stars out there.
27
00:03:06,846 --> 00:03:09,088
I got to confess. I'm just like you and me.
28
00:03:09,182 --> 00:03:11,591
Only get to see them in the movies.
29
00:03:11,686 --> 00:03:14,307
But I read about them.
I know all about them.
30
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,435
Boy, I'd sure like to meet
that Ava Gardner.
31
00:03:18,816 --> 00:03:21,438
- You're a little late. She's married.
- Yeah.
32
00:03:21,945 --> 00:03:23,855
- You know this one?
- Who's that?
33
00:03:23,948 --> 00:03:27,150
- Tony Hunter.
- Oh, him. The singing-dancing fella.
34
00:03:27,409 --> 00:03:31,489
My wife used to go see all his pictures.
Almost broke up our home.
35
00:03:31,580 --> 00:03:33,653
"Tony Hunter! Tony Hunter!"
36
00:03:34,163 --> 00:03:36,073
He was good 12 or 15 years ago...
37
00:03:36,166 --> 00:03:38,455
but the columnists out there
say he's through.
38
00:03:39,294 --> 00:03:42,912
Through? He's washed up.
Hasn't made a picture in three years.
39
00:03:43,006 --> 00:03:46,090
- Did you say something, mister?
- I said I agreed with you.
40
00:03:46,176 --> 00:03:47,754
That Tony Hunter's a has-been.
41
00:03:47,843 --> 00:03:49,587
- Got a match?
- Yeah.
42
00:03:49,679 --> 00:03:53,807
I wouldn't go to see him
if they gave away $5 bills with the ticket.
43
00:03:54,518 --> 00:03:55,632
Yeah.
44
00:03:57,812 --> 00:03:59,722
We should be pulling...
45
00:04:00,065 --> 00:04:04,727
The funny thing about what you're saying,
boys, is that it's absolutely true.
46
00:04:05,028 --> 00:04:07,434
Here. Have an exploding cigar.
47
00:04:23,336 --> 00:04:25,660
- This the last of the bags, Mr. Hunter?
- Yeah.
48
00:04:25,754 --> 00:04:28,672
Say, porter, could you see that
they get put in a taxi...
49
00:04:28,758 --> 00:04:32,837
- and taken up to the Plaza Hotel?
- Yes, sir. Thank you, sir.
50
00:04:33,846 --> 00:04:35,470
Everybody's getting off, sir.
51
00:04:35,556 --> 00:04:38,923
If you don't mind,
I'll just sit for a minute or two.
52
00:04:39,016 --> 00:04:42,220
You couldn't just make up my berth
for the night here, could you?
53
00:04:42,312 --> 00:04:44,435
No, sir. I couldn't do that.
54
00:04:56,117 --> 00:04:58,904
There's a mob of reporters
and photographers out there.
55
00:04:58,995 --> 00:05:02,197
Yep. There must be some big shot aboard.
Maybe the President.
56
00:05:02,289 --> 00:05:05,409
No, too many for that.
Probably a movie star.
57
00:05:11,882 --> 00:05:14,454
- Hi, fellas.
- Tony Hunter! Hello, Mr. Hunter!
58
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,373
Thanks for the red-carpet bit.
I didn't expect it.
59
00:05:17,469 --> 00:05:20,803
- What brings you to New York?
- Just fooling around and relaxing.
60
00:05:20,890 --> 00:05:23,131
- Between pictures, Tony?
- In a manner of speaking.
61
00:05:23,225 --> 00:05:26,227
Didn't I read something in Variety
about you going into a show?
62
00:05:26,312 --> 00:05:29,845
Lily and Les Marton had something
planned for me. I haven't decided yet.
63
00:05:29,939 --> 00:05:33,985
I haven't been on the stage in a long time.
And you get into a different medium.
64
00:05:34,070 --> 00:05:36,109
- What it actually is...
- Here she is, fellas!
65
00:05:36,197 --> 00:05:38,189
- Excuse me, Mr. Hunter.
- See you later, Tony.
66
00:05:38,282 --> 00:05:39,313
Hi, Miss Gardner.
67
00:05:39,408 --> 00:05:41,816
Miss Gardner, hold it, please?
Smile pretty. Thanks.
68
00:05:41,910 --> 00:05:45,576
- How long you going to be in town?
- I have no definite plans. I thought...
69
00:05:45,664 --> 00:05:48,154
Tony! I had no idea you were on the train.
70
00:05:48,249 --> 00:05:50,288
This is a surprise.
You going to be here long?
71
00:05:50,376 --> 00:05:52,700
- Perhaps a week or two...
- Excuse me, Miss Gardner.
72
00:05:52,794 --> 00:05:55,629
Could the boys get one more shot of you
coming out the door?
73
00:05:55,714 --> 00:05:58,384
Honestly, isn't all this stuff an awful bore?
74
00:05:58,467 --> 00:06:00,543
- Good to see you, Tony.
- It's nice to see you.
75
00:06:00,636 --> 00:06:04,502
By the door, please, Miss Gardner.
Once more! Here we go! Thank you.
76
00:06:04,597 --> 00:06:08,547
Miss Gardner, my paper would like
to do a Sunday feature on you.
77
00:06:09,936 --> 00:06:13,436
Those poor movie stars. People just
won't let them alone, will they?
78
00:06:13,524 --> 00:06:15,979
No. I don't know how they stand it.
79
00:06:19,530 --> 00:06:23,941
I'll go my way by myself
80
00:06:25,284 --> 00:06:28,866
like walking under the clouds
81
00:06:30,872 --> 00:06:34,952
I'll go my way by myself
82
00:06:36,044 --> 00:06:39,627
all alone in a crowd
83
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,797
I'll try to apply myself
84
00:06:47,013 --> 00:06:50,298
and teach my heart how to sing
85
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:56,473
I'll go my way by myself
86
00:06:57,522 --> 00:07:01,187
like a bird on the wing
87
00:07:03,196 --> 00:07:06,979
I'll face the unknown
88
00:07:08,283 --> 00:07:12,493
I'll build a world of my own
89
00:07:13,704 --> 00:07:18,166
No one knows better than I, myself
90
00:07:18,876 --> 00:07:24,037
I'm by myself alone
91
00:07:41,857 --> 00:07:44,774
Tony Hunter! There's Tony Hunter!
92
00:07:45,693 --> 00:07:50,271
HI TONY - WELCOME TONY
TONY HUNTER FAN CLUB
93
00:07:52,616 --> 00:07:54,858
Did you kids paint those signs just for me?
94
00:07:54,952 --> 00:07:57,028
That's cute. Piggy.
95
00:07:58,247 --> 00:07:59,872
Let's get rid of this stuff.
96
00:08:00,581 --> 00:08:02,869
This is the biggest surprise I've had.
97
00:08:07,130 --> 00:08:10,878
- Mister, can I have your autograph?
- You certainly can, gal, come here!
98
00:08:10,966 --> 00:08:12,377
That's my wife. Let go.
99
00:08:12,468 --> 00:08:14,840
Don't worry.
I'll get around to you in a minute.
100
00:08:14,929 --> 00:08:16,885
- Who's he?
- Never saw him before in my life.
101
00:08:16,972 --> 00:08:19,843
- Hello, piggy!
- Hello, yourself, you two-headed creep!
102
00:08:19,933 --> 00:08:21,641
Why didn't you say
when you were coming?
103
00:08:21,727 --> 00:08:23,008
We had to ask your agent.
104
00:08:23,104 --> 00:08:26,058
- Why didn't you send us a wire?
- I wanted to sneak in quietly.
105
00:08:26,148 --> 00:08:30,229
Believe me, I didn't have any trouble.
I want to see if you've changed in a year.
106
00:08:30,319 --> 00:08:33,736
No, Les, you haven't changed a bit.
You look desperately ill, as usual.
107
00:08:33,823 --> 00:08:36,063
- What'd you have to say that for?
- Just kidding.
108
00:08:36,157 --> 00:08:37,651
I've been feeling terrible all day.
109
00:08:37,742 --> 00:08:42,035
Kind of faint, light-headed,
a lot of pressure here, queasy inside...
110
00:08:42,121 --> 00:08:43,663
- my pulse...
- You look great.
111
00:08:43,747 --> 00:08:47,413
As for you, that New York pallor
is like a breath of fresh air.
112
00:08:47,501 --> 00:08:51,712
You're too pretty to be a successful writer
and much too pretty to be married to that.
113
00:08:51,797 --> 00:08:54,002
That's the prettiest compliment
I've had all day!
114
00:08:54,090 --> 00:08:56,877
Come on, you two-headed lovebirds,
there's work to be done!
115
00:08:56,968 --> 00:09:00,467
- Now I have here a script of a show!
- Les, you didn't bring it.
116
00:09:00,555 --> 00:09:02,927
It's great. It's the best thing
we've ever written.
117
00:09:03,016 --> 00:09:05,424
Take it, boy. Smell it!
You can tell it's good.
118
00:09:05,519 --> 00:09:08,471
There's a great part in it for you,
nice little parts for us.
119
00:09:08,562 --> 00:09:11,350
Wait. This boy must be starving.
Let's take him to Sardi's.
120
00:09:16,445 --> 00:09:18,438
Only two blocks more, then Sardi's.
121
00:09:18,531 --> 00:09:21,532
- Shall we tell him, Lil, the big surprise?
- You tell him, Les.
122
00:09:21,616 --> 00:09:23,693
Who do you think is going to do the show?
123
00:09:23,786 --> 00:09:27,914
Only the greatest director /producer
in town, Jeffrey Cordova.
124
00:09:28,123 --> 00:09:30,031
- Who?
- Jeff Cordova.
125
00:09:30,124 --> 00:09:32,912
We're meeting him tonight, backstage,
right after the show.
126
00:09:33,002 --> 00:09:35,624
- What did you say his name was?
- Jeffrey Cordova!
127
00:09:35,714 --> 00:09:36,912
You're not serious.
128
00:09:37,007 --> 00:09:39,249
I don't think he ever heard of this fella.
129
00:09:39,342 --> 00:09:42,342
What's the matter? Don't you
get newspapers back in California?
130
00:09:42,427 --> 00:09:44,882
This genius directed Man in a Mousetrap...
131
00:09:44,970 --> 00:09:49,468
The Lost Nymph, and did them both
while starring in Oedipus Rex.
132
00:09:49,560 --> 00:09:52,477
He's got three hits running,
and he's starring in one of them.
133
00:09:52,563 --> 00:09:53,594
Only one?
134
00:09:53,689 --> 00:09:57,734
This fella's fabulous, phenomenal,
fantastic! He can do anything.
135
00:09:57,819 --> 00:09:59,608
Has he ever directed a musical?
136
00:09:59,694 --> 00:10:01,770
What's the difference? He can do anything.
137
00:10:01,863 --> 00:10:04,900
He's theatre.
He's a new kind of theatre man, Tony.
138
00:10:04,992 --> 00:10:07,363
The theatre's changed.
Lots of things have changed.
139
00:10:07,452 --> 00:10:08,994
They certainly have.
140
00:10:10,330 --> 00:10:12,618
What's happened to 42nd Street?
141
00:10:13,541 --> 00:10:17,158
I just can't get over it.
I just can't understand it.
142
00:10:17,377 --> 00:10:20,876
This used to be the great theatre street
of the town. The New Amsterdam.
143
00:10:20,963 --> 00:10:23,964
I had one of my biggest successes there.
Ran a year and a half.
144
00:10:24,050 --> 00:10:27,085
Noel Coward and Gertie
were here in Private Lives in the Selwyn.
145
00:10:27,177 --> 00:10:29,716
Strictly carriage trade,
nothing but the finest.
146
00:10:29,806 --> 00:10:34,182
First show I ever did was at the Eltinge,
and I don't believe that's here anymore.
147
00:10:34,643 --> 00:10:35,805
What's the matter?
148
00:10:35,894 --> 00:10:38,600
- I think he broke my leg.
- Can you put your weight on it?
149
00:10:38,690 --> 00:10:40,848
- I'll try.
- I'm sorry, fella! I didn't mean it.
150
00:10:40,943 --> 00:10:43,231
- Okay, forget it.
- Let's get him a cab.
151
00:10:43,319 --> 00:10:44,648
Taxi!
152
00:10:45,614 --> 00:10:47,191
Here, let me carry you.
153
00:10:47,282 --> 00:10:50,862
My dear man, it's entirely my fault
and I apologize.
154
00:10:50,950 --> 00:10:52,408
Here's for your trouble.
155
00:10:53,577 --> 00:10:54,859
Lean on me.
156
00:10:55,664 --> 00:10:58,581
- I can stand anything but pain.
- You'll be all right.
157
00:10:58,666 --> 00:11:02,747
It's swelling. I'm getting a haematoma.
The blood is spurting out.
158
00:11:03,337 --> 00:11:06,872
I want some cold compresses!
Not hot, but cold.
159
00:11:06,966 --> 00:11:09,338
Listen, you go over to Sardi's.
I'll see you later.
160
00:11:09,427 --> 00:11:11,383
Driver, take them on over.
Order me a steak.
161
00:11:11,470 --> 00:11:12,845
I'll see you in a few minutes.
162
00:11:12,929 --> 00:11:16,927
PENNY ARCADE
163
00:11:22,272 --> 00:11:23,386
Excuse me.
164
00:11:23,481 --> 00:11:27,015
I'm just a little bit fuzzy.
Wasn't this formerly the Eltinge theatre?
165
00:11:34,450 --> 00:11:36,574
What are you doing in there?
166
00:11:36,661 --> 00:11:40,657
The GORILLA'S BRIDE
167
00:12:00,266 --> 00:12:01,925
ELECTRICITY IS LIFE
168
00:12:31,461 --> 00:12:33,500
MADAME OLGA - PREDICTIONS
169
00:12:59,989 --> 00:13:03,986
TEST YOUR LOVE APPEAL
170
00:13:23,552 --> 00:13:27,217
When you feel as low
as the bottom of a well
171
00:13:27,681 --> 00:13:30,007
and can't get out of the mood
172
00:13:31,477 --> 00:13:34,478
Do something to perk yourself up
173
00:13:34,689 --> 00:13:37,225
and change your attitude
174
00:13:38,316 --> 00:13:41,686
Give a tug to your tie
Put a crease in your pants
175
00:13:42,196 --> 00:13:44,651
But if you really want to feel fine
176
00:13:45,824 --> 00:13:50,152
give your shoes a shine
177
00:13:53,372 --> 00:13:56,658
When there's a shine on your shoes
178
00:13:56,751 --> 00:13:58,790
there's a melody in your heart
179
00:13:59,253 --> 00:14:04,295
With a singable happy feeling
a wonderful way to start
180
00:14:04,383 --> 00:14:06,874
to face the world every day
181
00:14:07,637 --> 00:14:09,713
with the deedle-dum-Dee-dah-dah
182
00:14:09,806 --> 00:14:14,714
A little melody that is making
the worrying world go by
183
00:14:14,808 --> 00:14:17,097
When you walk down the street
184
00:14:17,603 --> 00:14:19,726
with the happy-go-lucky beat
185
00:14:20,773 --> 00:14:24,392
You'll find a lot in what I'm repeating
186
00:14:24,653 --> 00:14:27,486
When there's a shine on your shoes
187
00:14:27,863 --> 00:14:30,152
There's a melody in your heart
188
00:14:30,365 --> 00:14:34,031
What a wonderful way to start the day
189
00:14:35,412 --> 00:14:38,283
Now there's a shine that you get
in the barbershop
190
00:14:40,460 --> 00:14:43,294
There's a shine that you get
in the Pullman car
191
00:14:45,505 --> 00:14:48,505
There's a shine that you get
in the pool room
192
00:14:50,509 --> 00:14:53,427
There's a shine that you get
in the school room
193
00:14:55,555 --> 00:14:57,844
But it doesn't matter where you get it
194
00:14:58,266 --> 00:15:01,054
It'll do a lot of good if you let it
195
00:15:01,144 --> 00:15:04,228
A little bit of polish will abolish
what's bothering you
196
00:15:05,022 --> 00:15:08,060
When there's a shine on your shoes
197
00:15:08,652 --> 00:15:13,113
Melody in your heart
Singable happy feeling
198
00:15:13,699 --> 00:15:15,359
Wonderful!
199
00:15:47,479 --> 00:15:50,565
Got a shine on my shoes
Got a shine on my shoes
200
00:15:50,650 --> 00:15:53,650
Got a shine on my shoes
Got a shine on my shoes
201
00:15:53,944 --> 00:15:57,229
Got a shine on my shoes
Got a shine on my shoes
202
00:15:57,322 --> 00:16:00,489
Got a shine on my shoes
Got a shine on my shoes
203
00:16:00,950 --> 00:16:04,237
Shiny shoes! Shiny shoes!
Shiny shoes! Shiny shoes!
204
00:16:04,330 --> 00:16:07,497
Shiny shoes! Shiny shoes!
Shiny shoes! Shiny shoes!
205
00:16:07,583 --> 00:16:11,033
I got a shine shoes
Shiny shoes! Shiny shoes! Shiny shoes!
206
00:16:11,127 --> 00:16:14,044
Shine Shine Shine Shine on my shoes
207
00:16:14,130 --> 00:16:17,250
I got a shine on my shoes
I got a shine on my shoes
208
00:16:17,342 --> 00:16:20,675
I got a shine on my shoes
I got a shine on my shoes
209
00:16:20,762 --> 00:16:22,505
Got a shoeshine
Got a shoeshine
210
00:16:22,596 --> 00:16:24,174
Got a shoeshine
Got a shoeshine
211
00:16:24,265 --> 00:16:26,054
Got a shoeshine
Got a shoeshine
212
00:16:26,140 --> 00:16:28,179
Got a shoeshine
Got a shoeshine
213
00:16:57,964 --> 00:16:59,919
Yeah! Hooray!
214
00:17:41,462 --> 00:17:43,750

217
00:17:49,011 --> 00:17:51,133
THE STRATTON THEATRE
218
00:17:51,262 --> 00:17:55,095
In such a time, indeed
you must reap doubly
219
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,518
with a twofold pain
220
00:17:58,604 --> 00:18:02,518
Kind friend, you alone are faithful to me.
221
00:18:02,816 --> 00:18:04,274
Blind though I am...
222
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:08,225
I know that you are here,
and your voice is known to me.
223
00:18:09,947 --> 00:18:14,858
Oh, man of dark deed, how did you find
the heart to blind yourself...
224
00:18:14,952 --> 00:18:17,159
but deliver to all?
225
00:18:17,246 --> 00:18:20,282
Apollo, friends! Apollo!
226
00:18:22,041 --> 00:18:25,956
Come near me.
Lay your hand upon a wretched man.
227
00:18:26,629 --> 00:18:28,373
Do not fear.
228
00:18:28,465 --> 00:18:32,463
My plague can touch no one but me.
229
00:18:33,427 --> 00:18:35,800
Seize me and drive me out!
230
00:18:35,888 --> 00:18:39,304
Send me, for God's sake,
to some distant spot!
231
00:18:39,558 --> 00:18:41,882
Conceal me! Kill me!
232
00:18:42,810 --> 00:18:45,812
This guy is going to direct a musical?
233
00:18:47,148 --> 00:18:49,306
This guy can do anything.
234
00:18:53,740 --> 00:18:57,652
Therefore plan, for to death
shall watch life's hand
235
00:18:58,576 --> 00:19:03,404
and can't all happy till thee pass
the earth away
236
00:19:07,169 --> 00:19:09,292
Sweetie, we start on the left foot!
237
00:19:09,378 --> 00:19:12,296
Always the left!
The whole exit depends upon...
238
00:19:12,382 --> 00:19:14,123
Lily, darling! How are you?
239
00:19:14,215 --> 00:19:15,626
Lester, how am I doing?
240
00:19:15,717 --> 00:19:17,756
- Jeff, this is Tony...
- Excuse me.
241
00:19:19,345 --> 00:19:21,469
Underneath it all, very simple.
242
00:19:21,556 --> 00:19:23,264
Isn't he wonderful?
243
00:19:28,187 --> 00:19:31,023
Listen. Order me
a corned-beef sandwich, will you?
244
00:19:31,107 --> 00:19:34,771
Lean, now, no fat, no gristle.
And a cream soda and a pickle.
245
00:19:35,779 --> 00:19:38,695
- Mr. Cordova wants a...
- Stay right here. It's all right.
246
00:19:38,781 --> 00:19:41,189
That maniac. Honestly! Say, Hal?
247
00:19:41,284 --> 00:19:43,443
- Yes, Miss Marton.
- The maestro wants his...
248
00:19:43,537 --> 00:19:46,286
I know. The corned beef.
It's in his dressing room already.
249
00:19:46,370 --> 00:19:47,485
Hal, this is Mr. Hunter.
250
00:19:47,580 --> 00:19:50,118
- This is Hal Benton, Jeff's manager.
- Nice to meet you.
251
00:19:50,208 --> 00:19:51,999
- I'm a great admirer of yours.
- Thank you.
252
00:19:52,085 --> 00:19:55,454
- When did you get in town?
- I got off the train a couple of hours ago.
253
00:19:55,547 --> 00:19:58,631
- Wasn't that curtain slower tonight?
- It was my fault. I'm sorry.
254
00:19:58,717 --> 00:20:02,500
No, don't change it. Keep it that way.
It's wonderful. Doubles the applause.
255
00:20:02,595 --> 00:20:04,551
- Jeff, this is Tony Hunter.
- How do you do?
256
00:20:04,638 --> 00:20:08,339
Sorry, kids. Be with you soon as I get out
of this sackcloth and ashes...
257
00:20:08,434 --> 00:20:12,218
Max, what happened to that amber spot?
It was way off.
258
00:20:12,313 --> 00:20:13,724
Must have more light on me there.
259
00:20:13,814 --> 00:20:16,020
Don't let us keep it a secret
I'm in the show.
260
00:20:16,107 --> 00:20:17,436
- Excuse me.
- Hello, sweetheart.
261
00:20:17,526 --> 00:20:19,269
- You look wonderful.
- Thank you.
262
00:20:19,361 --> 00:20:23,275
Hal, call a full dialogue rehearsal, will you?
Friday, for the full company.
263
00:20:23,364 --> 00:20:26,568
Sloppy diction. The original was in Greek,
but this is in English.
264
00:20:26,659 --> 00:20:30,953
Don't let us keep it a secret it's in English.
I want to catch the matinee tomorrow...
265
00:20:31,038 --> 00:20:33,791
- of Man in a Mousetrap.
- Can't do. We got a drama lecture...
266
00:20:33,875 --> 00:20:35,583
Never mind. We'll work it out somehow.
267
00:20:35,669 --> 00:20:37,790
Jeff, this is Tony Hunter.
268
00:20:37,878 --> 00:20:39,787
Yeah, I know. We just met.
269
00:20:41,715 --> 00:20:42,830
Mr. Hunter.
270
00:20:42,925 --> 00:20:44,881
- I beg your pardon.
- I'm glad to know you.
271
00:20:44,968 --> 00:20:46,249
So happy to meet you.
272
00:20:46,345 --> 00:20:49,216
You have no idea
how delighted I am to see you.
273
00:20:49,307 --> 00:20:51,298
- Delighted and thrilled.
- Thank you.
274
00:20:52,768 --> 00:20:55,138
We need our theatre greats right here.
275
00:20:55,227 --> 00:20:58,762
So when Lily and Lester said they were
doing a show with Tony Hunter...
276
00:20:58,855 --> 00:21:00,765
that's all I had to know.
277
00:21:00,941 --> 00:21:04,607
I'm dropping every other project,
and there are plenty, believe me.
278
00:21:05,447 --> 00:21:09,859
That's wonderful, Mr. Cordova,
but all this... The classics...
279
00:21:10,492 --> 00:21:14,572
- Do you really want to do a musical?
- Musical, musical!
280
00:21:14,663 --> 00:21:18,578
I'm sick of these artificial barriers
between the musical and the drama.
281
00:21:18,918 --> 00:21:22,582
In my mind, there is no difference
between the magic rhythms...
282
00:21:22,671 --> 00:21:26,456
of Bill Shakespeare's immortal verse
and the magic rhythms...
283
00:21:26,551 --> 00:21:28,955
of Bill Robinson's immortal feet.
284
00:21:29,634 --> 00:21:32,256
Hal, write that down.
I'll use it at Princeton.
285
00:21:32,346 --> 00:21:34,255
It's already down. You used it last week.
286
00:21:34,348 --> 00:21:37,016
I tell you, if it moves you,
if it stimulates you...
287
00:21:37,100 --> 00:21:39,259
if it entertains you, it's theatre.
288
00:21:39,395 --> 00:21:42,680
When the right combination gets together
and it spells theatre...
289
00:21:42,772 --> 00:21:45,975
I got to be right in there up to my armpits.
290
00:21:46,650 --> 00:21:48,109
That's higher than usual.
291
00:21:48,194 --> 00:21:50,651
Now, that's what I wanted
Tony to hear you say.
292
00:21:50,739 --> 00:21:55,200
I tried to tell him how you feel, but I knew
that you could say it so beautifully.
293
00:21:55,286 --> 00:21:57,693
Lily, you splendid animal.
294
00:21:57,871 --> 00:22:00,787
Take your hands off my wife
and let's get down to business.
295
00:22:00,872 --> 00:22:03,992
Now I have here a script.
It's great. It's ready to roll.
296
00:22:04,084 --> 00:22:07,667
Jeff, I want you to take this home.
I want you to read it tonight...
297
00:22:07,754 --> 00:22:10,920
But before I do,
give me a rough idea of the plot.
298
00:22:11,132 --> 00:22:13,670
- Now?
- Throw it at me for a quick impression.
299
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:15,753
- I'm dying to hear it.
- You tell it, Lester.
300
00:22:15,845 --> 00:22:18,086
- You do it so much better.
- Lester, honestly.
301
00:22:18,180 --> 00:22:20,671
- Please, Lily, tell them.
- Lester, honestly.
302
00:22:21,517 --> 00:22:25,596
With Tony in mind, we naturally
visualize a light and intimate show.
303
00:22:25,687 --> 00:22:29,686
We want to give him a chance to play
a charming guy, with just enough plot...
304
00:22:29,776 --> 00:22:32,693
to make him do lots
of gay and varied numbers.
305
00:22:33,112 --> 00:22:36,527
He's a writer and illustrator
of children's books...
306
00:22:36,615 --> 00:22:38,192
but to get in the real dough...
307
00:22:38,283 --> 00:22:41,367
on the side,
he writes lurid murder mysteries...
308
00:22:41,452 --> 00:22:43,778
full of violence and buckets of blood.
309
00:22:44,540 --> 00:22:47,291
The success of these
makes him feel he's sort of...
310
00:22:47,375 --> 00:22:50,080
sold his soul to the Devil,
but he keeps on doing it.
311
00:22:50,170 --> 00:22:53,502
There's lots of comedy implications
with his friends, played by us.
312
00:22:53,589 --> 00:22:56,341
- And with his girl.
- I love this. Terrific possibilities.
313
00:22:56,425 --> 00:22:58,632
And some of the best numbers
we've ever written!
314
00:22:58,719 --> 00:23:03,013
Children's playground, a reform school,
12 showgirls playing softball!
315
00:23:03,098 --> 00:23:06,349
- And a number about a murder mystery!
- You two are the end.
316
00:23:06,602 --> 00:23:10,183
- Tony, I'm so glad!
- Some of the best lines we've written.
317
00:23:11,564 --> 00:23:13,556
What do you think, Jeff?
318
00:23:21,659 --> 00:23:23,567
Kids, you're geniuses.
319
00:23:23,702 --> 00:23:26,618
The whole thing
is a brilliantly imaginative idea.
320
00:23:26,704 --> 00:23:28,115
Why, Jeff!
321
00:23:28,205 --> 00:23:31,823
You've hit on something
that's not only great as a musical...
322
00:23:31,917 --> 00:23:34,753
but valid in terms of today, of modern life.
323
00:23:34,837 --> 00:23:36,664
Jeff, I'm so glad!
324
00:23:36,756 --> 00:23:40,421
Of course, these modern thrillers,
he's got to keep turning them out.
325
00:23:40,509 --> 00:23:42,500
They make him fame, money. He's caught.
326
00:23:42,593 --> 00:23:44,217
It's a funny situation.
327
00:23:44,303 --> 00:23:47,968
Of course! It's brilliant,
contemporary, perceptive.
328
00:23:48,224 --> 00:23:51,344
This story's a modern version of Faust.
329
00:23:52,936 --> 00:23:55,143
- Faust?
- You're kidding, Jeff.
330
00:23:56,231 --> 00:23:59,765
I guess I didn't tell it right.
I didn't bring out the point.
331
00:23:59,859 --> 00:24:04,154
But you did bring out the point admirably.
You used the phrase:
332
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,612
"He sells his soul to the Devil."
333
00:24:06,992 --> 00:24:10,159
Now, that's the line you have to follow
straight through.
334
00:24:10,412 --> 00:24:13,083
Just like Faust,
this man is tempted by the Devil...
335
00:24:13,166 --> 00:24:17,576
and his compromise, his sell-out,
must end in eternal damnation.
336
00:24:18,252 --> 00:24:20,161
That'll leave them laughing.
337
00:24:20,254 --> 00:24:24,298
Kids, you've got a choice here
between a nice little musical comedy...
338
00:24:24,382 --> 00:24:27,219
and a modern musical morality play...
339
00:24:27,303 --> 00:24:29,674
with meaning and stature!
340
00:24:30,389 --> 00:24:34,137
- But we don't want to write Faust.
- You're taking me too literally.
341
00:24:34,225 --> 00:24:36,597
I want to do your story. I love it!
342
00:24:36,935 --> 00:24:39,606
But I want to angle it
to bring out the analogy...
343
00:24:39,689 --> 00:24:42,394
between the Faust legend
and this man's story.
344
00:24:42,985 --> 00:24:46,684
Won't this make it heavy?
Is this a box-office idea?
345
00:24:46,779 --> 00:24:48,190
Is Faust box-office?
346
00:24:48,281 --> 00:24:51,815
Listen, Faust by Christopher Marlowe,
Faust by Goethe, Faust by Gounod...
347
00:24:51,909 --> 00:24:52,988
Faust by Hector Berlioz.
348
00:24:53,077 --> 00:24:57,075
I tell you, anyone who's touched this
legend has turned it into a gold mine.
349
00:24:57,164 --> 00:24:58,788
It's got to be a smash.
350
00:24:59,875 --> 00:25:02,710
It could still have all the fun in it,
couldn't it?
351
00:25:02,794 --> 00:25:06,661
- Yeah, and some stature thrown in.
- Now, kids, I'm happy about this.
352
00:25:06,965 --> 00:25:09,503
- Really happy.
- So are we, Jeff.
353
00:25:09,592 --> 00:25:11,051
This publisher you mentioned...
354
00:25:11,136 --> 00:25:14,005
obviously, he could be
the counterpart of the Devil.
355
00:25:18,810 --> 00:25:20,849
Evil personified!
356
00:25:21,479 --> 00:25:25,605
Leading all mankind
into the paths of temptation!
357
00:25:26,357 --> 00:25:29,857
- But nobody could play it like you.
- Nobody's going to.
358
00:25:29,944 --> 00:25:32,021
You mean you're going to play it?
359
00:25:32,364 --> 00:25:35,281
The part of the girl... Somebody fresh.
360
00:25:35,367 --> 00:25:39,150
Somebody with fire, charm, grace, beauty.
Gabrielle Gerard.
361
00:25:39,328 --> 00:25:42,698
- Gerard? She's a ballet dancer.
- She doesn't want to do a show.
362
00:25:42,790 --> 00:25:45,282
- She turns them all down.
- Nobody ever turns me down.
363
00:25:45,377 --> 00:25:48,212
Do you really think you could get her?
What a cast!
364
00:25:48,296 --> 00:25:52,922
Tony Hunter, Jeff Cordova,
Gabrielle Gerard! Tony! Isn't this exciting?
365
00:25:53,009 --> 00:25:54,207
Yeah.
366
00:25:54,635 --> 00:25:58,382
Now, look, this is going to be
a sort of modern Faust story.
367
00:25:59,055 --> 00:26:03,301
I play the Faust character. You play
the Devil. It'll have stature, importance.
368
00:26:03,725 --> 00:26:06,643
- I have to dance with this ballet dancer?
- She's wonderful.
369
00:26:06,729 --> 00:26:07,928
It'll be great.
370
00:26:08,023 --> 00:26:11,391
It'll be great for somebody.
I'll pick up my marbles and go home.
371
00:26:11,484 --> 00:26:14,400
Fellas, bless you and good luck,
but this just ain't for me.
372
00:26:14,486 --> 00:26:16,479
I know what I can do,
and I'm sticking to it.
373
00:26:16,572 --> 00:26:19,692
That's the trouble. You've stuck to it,
and you're stuck with it.
374
00:26:19,783 --> 00:26:22,322
- What?
- Tony, nobody admires you more than I.
375
00:26:22,412 --> 00:26:25,531
I've seen every show
and every movie you've ever done...
376
00:26:25,623 --> 00:26:27,331
but let's face some brutal facts.
377
00:26:27,416 --> 00:26:30,534
Times have changed, Tony.
You haven't changed with them.
378
00:26:30,626 --> 00:26:34,671
- You've gone stale.
- Then you certainly don't need me.
379
00:26:35,632 --> 00:26:37,090
Yes, we do!
380
00:26:37,175 --> 00:26:39,582
Because you can be greater
than you ever were!
381
00:26:39,677 --> 00:26:43,295
We are going to make you explode
on the theatre scene like a skyrocket!
382
00:26:43,389 --> 00:26:46,425
Not just the old trademark,
with the top hat, tie, and tails...
383
00:26:46,516 --> 00:26:48,592
but a great artist
at the peak of his powers.
384
00:26:48,685 --> 00:26:52,434
The new Tony Hunter. Tony Hunter, 1953!
385
00:26:52,523 --> 00:26:55,642
- But can I do it?
- It's a challenge to all of us...
386
00:26:55,733 --> 00:26:58,307
but that's what the theatre's about:
a challenge.
387
00:26:58,403 --> 00:27:00,776
Whatever I am,
whether it's a new me or an old me...
388
00:27:00,865 --> 00:27:02,655
remember, I'm still just an entertainer.
389
00:27:02,741 --> 00:27:05,231
What do you think I am?
What do you think they are?
390
00:27:05,326 --> 00:27:07,995
What do you think the theatre is?
It's all entertainment!
391
00:27:08,079 --> 00:27:11,198
Believe me, there is no difference
between the magic rhythms...
392
00:27:11,290 --> 00:27:13,996
- of Bill Robinson's immortal feet...
- You said that before.
393
00:27:14,085 --> 00:27:17,785
All right, what did Bill Robinson do?
He danced on the stairs, didn't he?
394
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:20,549
Now I happen to play Oedipus the king
on the same stairs.
395
00:27:20,632 --> 00:27:23,122
What's the difference? We're all theatre.
396
00:27:24,218 --> 00:27:25,844
Show me the greatest tragic actor...
397
00:27:25,929 --> 00:27:28,136
or the lowest red-nosed comic
in burlesque...
398
00:27:28,223 --> 00:27:30,761
and I'll show you an entertainer. We're all...
399
00:27:32,644 --> 00:27:34,637
Jeff, are you all right?
400
00:27:35,313 --> 00:27:37,803
Everything that happens in life
401
00:27:37,981 --> 00:27:40,353
can happen in a show
402
00:27:40,942 --> 00:27:44,146
You can make 'em laugh
You can make 'em cry
403
00:27:44,570 --> 00:27:48,616
Anything, anything can go
404
00:27:51,288 --> 00:27:54,536
The clown with his pants falling down
405
00:27:54,623 --> 00:27:58,122
Or the dance that's a dream of romance
406
00:27:58,210 --> 00:28:02,254
Or the scene where the villain is mean
407
00:28:03,006 --> 00:28:05,580
That's Entertainment!
408
00:28:06,052 --> 00:28:09,171
The lights on the lady in tights
409
00:28:09,262 --> 00:28:13,009
Or the bride with the guy on the side
410
00:28:13,098 --> 00:28:17,262
Or the ball where she gives him her all
411
00:28:17,728 --> 00:28:20,301
That's Entertainment!
412
00:28:20,897 --> 00:28:24,100
The plot can be hot
simply teeming with sex
413
00:28:24,609 --> 00:28:27,609
A gay divorcé who is after her ex
414
00:28:28,903 --> 00:28:31,360
It could be Oedipus Rex
415
00:28:31,449 --> 00:28:35,494
Where a chap kills his father
and causes a lot of bother
416
00:28:35,578 --> 00:28:38,698
The clerk who is thrown out of work
417
00:28:38,790 --> 00:28:42,326
By the boss who was thrown for a loss
418
00:28:42,420 --> 00:28:45,952
By the skirt who is doing him dirt
419
00:28:46,296 --> 00:28:48,372
The world is a stage
420
00:28:48,465 --> 00:28:52,082
the stage is a world of entertainment
421
00:29:05,397 --> 00:29:07,639
That's Entertainment!
422
00:29:14,865 --> 00:29:16,525
All right!
423
00:29:19,743 --> 00:29:22,070
That's Entertainment!
424
00:29:29,921 --> 00:29:31,712
Look what I can do.
425
00:29:40,805 --> 00:29:42,348
It's still me!
426
00:29:57,195 --> 00:30:00,363
The doubt while the jury is out
427
00:30:00,449 --> 00:30:03,949
or the thrill when they're reading the will
428
00:30:04,037 --> 00:30:07,654
or the chase for the man with the face
429
00:30:08,791 --> 00:30:11,115
That's Entertainment!
430
00:30:11,835 --> 00:30:14,956
The dame who is known as the flame
431
00:30:15,047 --> 00:30:18,712
Of the king of an underworld ring
432
00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:22,466
He's an ape who won't let her escape
433
00:30:23,472 --> 00:30:25,759
That's Entertainment!
434
00:30:26,557 --> 00:30:29,641
It might be a fight
like you see on the screen
435
00:30:30,269 --> 00:30:33,720
a swain getting slain
for the love of a queen
436
00:30:34,606 --> 00:30:39,315
some great Shakespearean scene
where a ghost and a prince meet
437
00:30:39,403 --> 00:30:41,146
and everyone ends in mincemeat
438
00:30:41,237 --> 00:30:44,357
the gag may be waving that flag
439
00:30:44,449 --> 00:30:48,032
that began with a Mr. Cohan
440
00:30:48,119 --> 00:30:51,905
Hip hooray, the American way
441
00:30:52,125 --> 00:30:53,867
The world is a stage
442
00:30:54,459 --> 00:30:59,618
the stage is a world of entertainment
443
00:31:03,132 --> 00:31:06,253
- You gone yet, Hal?
- I'm in here, Jeff, on the phone.
444
00:31:06,387 --> 00:31:08,959
Drama desk? Hello, Mike. It's Hal.
445
00:31:09,097 --> 00:31:12,632
You know that item Mr. Cordova sent you
about signing Gabrielle Gerard...
446
00:31:12,726 --> 00:31:13,889
for the Marton show?
447
00:31:13,977 --> 00:31:17,559
There's been a mistake.
I wonder if there's still time to kill it.
448
00:31:17,647 --> 00:31:20,565
- Yeah. I'd appreciate it. Thanks, kid.
- Why did you do that?
449
00:31:20,650 --> 00:31:23,223
To save you from making an idiot
of yourself in print.
450
00:31:23,319 --> 00:31:25,726
- You know you can't get Gerard.
- Why?
451
00:31:25,821 --> 00:31:29,321
Because Paul Byrd won't let her
do a show. He's a tough customer.
452
00:31:29,408 --> 00:31:32,159
He's not only her choreographer,
he's also her boyfriend.
453
00:31:32,244 --> 00:31:34,035
She doesn't make a move without him.
454
00:31:34,121 --> 00:31:36,078
That will be Paul Byrd now.
455
00:31:36,165 --> 00:31:39,533
- It's 3:00 in the morning.
- Let him in, Hal, will you?
456
00:31:44,256 --> 00:31:45,750
- Hello, Paul.
- Where are they?
457
00:31:45,841 --> 00:31:47,335
He's in there.
458
00:31:47,718 --> 00:31:48,879
Hello, Paul.
459
00:31:48,968 --> 00:31:50,343
- Where is he?
- Who?
460
00:31:50,428 --> 00:31:53,000
- Oscar Hammerstein.
- Home in bed, I hope, at this hour.
461
00:31:53,096 --> 00:31:55,719
- Who is it? Dick Rodgers?
- What are you talking about?
462
00:31:55,809 --> 00:31:58,478
Didn't you say the greatest producer
of musicals today...
463
00:31:58,561 --> 00:31:59,889
was here and wanted to see me?
464
00:31:59,979 --> 00:32:03,846
- That's me. I'm doing a musical.
- Did you get me out of bed...
465
00:32:07,651 --> 00:32:09,194
I see what this is all about.
466
00:32:09,278 --> 00:32:13,145
You needn't go any further because
the answer is no on Gabrielle Gerard.
467
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,648
Gabrielle... Paul, I don't follow you.
468
00:32:15,743 --> 00:32:18,947
Gabrielle is not going to do a show.
She's too important to ballet.
469
00:32:19,039 --> 00:32:20,746
This has nothing to do with Gabrielle.
470
00:32:21,291 --> 00:32:25,454
Paul, I want you to do the choreography
for the greatest musical in years.
471
00:32:27,963 --> 00:32:30,086
- I'm sorry...
- That's why I wakened you, Paul.
472
00:32:30,174 --> 00:32:34,042
I'm so keyed up I just can't sleep.
You know how brilliant the Martons are.
473
00:32:34,137 --> 00:32:35,880
This time, they've excelled themselves.
474
00:32:35,972 --> 00:32:38,887
This show is a choreographer's dream,
and only you can do it.
475
00:32:38,973 --> 00:32:41,678
- I wouldn't say that.
- No time for false modesty.
476
00:32:41,767 --> 00:32:44,768
You're the greatest, and we know it.
This is just your meat.
477
00:32:44,853 --> 00:32:49,480
A great classic theme.
The story of Faust in a modern setting.
478
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:54,231
Say, that sounds interesting.
479
00:32:54,321 --> 00:32:57,190
I've never been so excited
about a project in my life.
480
00:32:57,281 --> 00:33:00,983
Now, there's Tony Hunter, myself,
a great score by the Martons.
481
00:33:01,078 --> 00:33:03,451
Wonderful. My brain's beginning
to churn already.
482
00:33:03,540 --> 00:33:07,323
Good. Now we must comb the country
for a wonderful singer for the girl.
483
00:33:07,626 --> 00:33:11,291
Singer? Jeff, don't you think we ought
to stress the dancing in that role?
484
00:33:11,379 --> 00:33:12,623
No, Paul.
485
00:33:12,713 --> 00:33:17,340
This girl has to be a virtuoso performer,
with fire, charm, beauty...
486
00:33:17,468 --> 00:33:21,548
a great lady with a gamine quality.
You know no dancer can give you that.
487
00:33:21,638 --> 00:33:25,683
Wait. Of course I wouldn't let her do it,
but Gabrielle has all that and more.
488
00:33:25,768 --> 00:33:29,018
Gabrielle? Paul, I feel a little embarrassed.
489
00:33:29,105 --> 00:33:32,021
I think she's charming,
within her limitations. Charming.
490
00:33:32,107 --> 00:33:33,849
She's a great artist, and you know it.
491
00:33:33,941 --> 00:33:37,441
- Sorry. I know how fond of her you are.
- That has nothing to do with it!
492
00:33:37,528 --> 00:33:39,902
She can be one of the greatest
stars in the theatre.
493
00:33:39,990 --> 00:33:41,484
Everybody's been trying to get her.
494
00:33:41,574 --> 00:33:43,816
For the right vehicle,
something light and fluffy.
495
00:33:43,910 --> 00:33:45,570
Light and fluffy? Now, see here, Jeff.
496
00:33:45,662 --> 00:33:49,112
I'm not gonna do this show
unless Gabrielle Gerard plays that part!
497
00:33:49,331 --> 00:33:53,032
Now, Paul, this throws a little
monkey wrench into things, doesn't it?
498
00:33:53,127 --> 00:33:56,081
Never mind.
You and I will work together sometime...
499
00:33:56,171 --> 00:33:59,422
Wait. At least do this. You come
and see her in the ballet tomorrow.
500
00:33:59,508 --> 00:34:01,998
- Bring Hunter, bring the Martons.
- No. Impossible.
501
00:34:02,093 --> 00:34:04,715
I have a performance.
But I'll gladly send the Martons.
502
00:34:04,804 --> 00:34:08,339
We can get together afterwards and talk.
Mind you, I'm promising nothing.
503
00:34:08,433 --> 00:34:10,224
Good night, sweetie.
504
00:34:12,603 --> 00:34:13,884
Drama desk?
505
00:34:13,980 --> 00:34:17,598
Mike. Hal again.
Better print that item after all.
506
00:34:17,692 --> 00:34:22,103
And, Mike, after this, if Mr. Cordova tells
you he's casting Tallulah...
507
00:34:22,278 --> 00:34:24,816
for Little Eva, believe him.
508
00:34:29,368 --> 00:34:30,746
COMMODORE THEATER
Coutray Ballet Company
509
00:34:30,830 --> 00:34:33,036
Gabrielle Gerard
Choreography by Paul Byrd
510
00:34:33,123 --> 00:34:36,078
IMAGE OF THE NIGHT - ENSEMBLE
THE FIELDS - PHANTASY
511
00:35:44,188 --> 00:35:45,268
Well?
512
00:35:45,356 --> 00:35:48,477
She's fabulous, sensational,
loveliest thing I've ever seen.
513
00:36:25,186 --> 00:36:26,931
A little tall, isn't she?
514
00:36:28,023 --> 00:36:29,565
Stage illusion.
515
00:37:06,268 --> 00:37:08,010
So you didn't care for it much?
516
00:37:08,101 --> 00:37:10,011
The girl's fantastic, beautiful...
517
00:37:10,103 --> 00:37:11,597
but I can't dance with her.
518
00:37:11,687 --> 00:37:13,182
Stop worrying!
519
00:37:16,735 --> 00:37:19,522
It isn't that I don't appreciate
what she does.
520
00:37:19,613 --> 00:37:22,530
I tell you, I know she's magnificent.
That's what scares me.
521
00:37:22,616 --> 00:37:26,279
But I haven't done ballet
since I was a kid. I'd look silly.
522
00:37:26,618 --> 00:37:28,410
Hello, Lil. You look wonderful.
Put your things over there.
523
00:37:29,496 --> 00:37:30,874
Hello, Mr. Hunter. How are you?
524
00:37:30,958 --> 00:37:32,914
- Hello, Les. Glad to see you.
- How are you?
525
00:37:33,001 --> 00:37:35,326
What is this?
The annual fur trappers' convention?
526
00:37:35,420 --> 00:37:37,662
- The boss is inside with big money.
- His backers?
527
00:37:37,756 --> 00:37:40,211
- They're raising money for the show.
- What show, ours?
528
00:37:40,299 --> 00:37:42,207
- Sure.
- He hasn't read the script yet.
529
00:37:42,299 --> 00:37:44,044
- I better go back...
- Sorry, Mr. Marton.
530
00:37:44,136 --> 00:37:47,302
You disturb the water, you scare the fish.
They're biting tonight.
531
00:37:47,388 --> 00:37:50,342
- What's he telling them?
- Whatever it is, it's going over big.
532
00:37:50,433 --> 00:37:52,093
- Come on, Lil.
- Please don't go in yet.
533
00:37:52,185 --> 00:37:55,019
Wait here in the study.
He's saving you for the big finale.
534
00:37:55,104 --> 00:37:56,136
Excuse me.
535
00:37:56,231 --> 00:37:58,223
- Lester, isn't this wonderful?
- Yeah.
536
00:37:58,316 --> 00:38:00,604
- This is going to be great, Tony.
- Why?
537
00:38:00,693 --> 00:38:02,934
Cordova. The dough for the show.
No problems.
538
00:38:03,028 --> 00:38:05,436
How many times did we have to audition
the last time?
539
00:38:05,531 --> 00:38:07,488
- Fifty.
- A hundred, maybe more.
540
00:38:07,574 --> 00:38:11,573
Jeff might raise the backing tonight.
We'll be ready to rehearse in three weeks.
541
00:38:13,039 --> 00:38:14,829
- Hello, Hal.
- Hello, Paul. How are you?
542
00:38:14,915 --> 00:38:16,574
How nice to see you. Come right in.
543
00:38:16,666 --> 00:38:18,705
Hal, this is Miss Gerard. Mr. Benton.
544
00:38:18,793 --> 00:38:20,999
How do you do?
Jeff's inside with the backers.
545
00:38:21,087 --> 00:38:22,997
Why don't you wait in the library?
546
00:38:23,090 --> 00:38:24,548
- Excuse me.
- Thanks.
547
00:38:30,971 --> 00:38:33,177
Let's wait in here a minute, huh?
548
00:38:34,350 --> 00:38:36,675
Now, wait a second. I'm not ready yet.
549
00:38:36,769 --> 00:38:38,642
There's a lot to be cleared up first.
550
00:38:38,729 --> 00:38:41,185
This girl Gerard, it's not just her dancing.
551
00:38:41,273 --> 00:38:44,642
On top of everything, she's too tall for me.
This girl is a giantess.
552
00:38:44,735 --> 00:38:46,810
She's not too tall for you. I know this girl.
553
00:38:46,903 --> 00:38:49,109
She comes up to here,
maybe 2 inches shorter.
554
00:38:49,196 --> 00:38:51,569
You know I'm the perfect height for you.
Now look...
555
00:38:51,657 --> 00:38:54,064
turn around. Measure. Look.
You see? Isn't that fine?
556
00:38:54,159 --> 00:38:58,987
Listen. Gabrielle Gerard in her
stocking feet is at the most 3-feet tall.
557
00:38:59,455 --> 00:39:03,372
Now relax. I'm going to find you a drink,
and you can stop worrying about her.
558
00:39:03,462 --> 00:39:06,165
Jeff only wants her in the show
because she's the best.
559
00:39:06,255 --> 00:39:08,710
We all gotta go along with him, too, Tony.
560
00:39:08,799 --> 00:39:10,957
In the show, one guy's got to be
at the helm...
561
00:39:11,051 --> 00:39:13,590
and in Jeff, we got someone
we can trust to...
562
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:17,297
...it is the Devil, come to claim the soul
of the modern Faust man.
563
00:39:17,391 --> 00:39:20,309
With flapping wings
and grinning evil eyes...
564
00:39:20,394 --> 00:39:23,179
he points the way
to the yawning pits of Hades.
565
00:39:26,774 --> 00:39:27,889
Hallelujah.
566
00:39:29,109 --> 00:39:31,351
- I'm embarrassed.
- Don't be childish.
567
00:39:31,445 --> 00:39:33,983
I'm sure Tony Hunter doesn't want me
in this show.
568
00:39:34,073 --> 00:39:36,942
- What makes you say that?
- Did he come backstage to see me...
569
00:39:37,033 --> 00:39:38,196
after the performance?
570
00:39:38,284 --> 00:39:40,194
He knew he was going to meet you here.
571
00:39:40,287 --> 00:39:44,118
- I'm just a ballet dancer...
- You're a famous leading ballerina.
572
00:39:44,206 --> 00:39:47,541
What does he want with me?
He's a famous movie and stage actor.
573
00:39:47,628 --> 00:39:50,379
He's practically a historical character
by now.
574
00:39:50,463 --> 00:39:53,880
Dancing with him is like dancing
with a statue of General Grant.
575
00:39:53,968 --> 00:39:55,508
Now look, Gaby.
576
00:39:55,926 --> 00:39:59,508
You know, this is a Cordova show.
It's an important step for you.
577
00:39:59,596 --> 00:40:03,676
I'm going to do the choreography,
so there's nothing for you to worry about.
578
00:40:03,767 --> 00:40:06,638
But I still think he doesn't want me
in the show.
579
00:40:06,812 --> 00:40:08,223
Your nose is shiny.
580
00:40:08,313 --> 00:40:10,555
- Where's the...
- Maybe this is it.
581
00:40:12,150 --> 00:40:16,942
He passes by all the writhing souls
in torment paying for their deadly sins.
582
00:40:17,029 --> 00:40:18,857
Gluttony, avarice...
583
00:40:20,825 --> 00:40:22,319
It must be upstairs.
584
00:40:40,093 --> 00:40:41,966
Lester, what have we got ourselves into?
585
00:40:42,053 --> 00:40:45,505
The story he's telling them has nothing
to do with the story we wrote.
586
00:40:45,599 --> 00:40:48,054
This will mean months of rewriting.
587
00:40:48,267 --> 00:40:51,470
He expects us to go into rehearsal
in three weeks?
588
00:40:55,732 --> 00:41:00,561
Brimstone and flames. Save me.
589
00:41:07,660 --> 00:41:12,488
Corrupter of children.
Purveyor of evil. Dungeon...
590
00:41:14,001 --> 00:41:18,413
...bubbling cauldrons.
Fiery furnaces of doom.
591
00:41:26,512 --> 00:41:28,968
- You're...
- And you're... How do you do?
592
00:41:29,056 --> 00:41:30,848
How do you do? It's certainly a...
593
00:41:30,933 --> 00:41:33,969
- We've been waiting for you in there.
- We just got here.
594
00:41:34,061 --> 00:41:36,385
We just got here ourselves,
about five minutes ago.
595
00:41:36,479 --> 00:41:38,602
A little early, I guess. Mr. Cordova's busy.
596
00:41:38,690 --> 00:41:41,227
Yes, I know, and I rushed so to get here.
597
00:41:41,317 --> 00:41:43,808
- I'm a mess.
- No. You look wonderful.
598
00:41:45,362 --> 00:41:48,447
- Will you have a cigarette?
- No, thanks. I don't smoke.
599
00:41:48,574 --> 00:41:51,659
- Never?
- I don't think a dancer should smoke.
600
00:41:51,744 --> 00:41:52,907
I see.
601
00:41:54,036 --> 00:41:56,907
- Is anything wrong?
- No.
602
00:41:57,665 --> 00:41:59,706
- Pretty shoes.
- Thank you.
603
00:42:00,002 --> 00:42:01,662
You always wear high heels?
604
00:42:01,754 --> 00:42:04,245
No. Not always. Sometimes toeshoes.
605
00:42:04,674 --> 00:42:05,954
Toeshoes.
606
00:42:06,175 --> 00:42:08,084
I'm afraid I've been awfully rude.
607
00:42:08,177 --> 00:42:10,796
I haven't told you how wonderful
you were tonight.
608
00:42:10,886 --> 00:42:13,674
Thank you.
I'm a great admirer of yours, too.
609
00:42:13,765 --> 00:42:16,551
- I didn't think you'd ever even heard of me.
- Heard of you?
610
00:42:16,642 --> 00:42:19,394
I used to see all your pictures
when I was a little girl.
611
00:42:19,478 --> 00:42:23,143
I'm still a fan. I recently went to see
a revival of them at the museum.
612
00:42:23,231 --> 00:42:24,311
Museum?
613
00:42:24,399 --> 00:42:26,274
"Step right this way,
ladies and gentlemen.
614
00:42:26,361 --> 00:42:28,269
"Egyptian mummies, extinct reptiles...
615
00:42:28,362 --> 00:42:31,196
"and Tony Hunter,
the grand old man of the dance."
616
00:42:31,281 --> 00:42:32,360
I didn't mean...
617
00:42:32,448 --> 00:42:36,399
I want you to know that I can still
thread a needle without my eyeglasses...
618
00:42:36,494 --> 00:42:39,330
and still occasionally do
a soft-shoe shuffle.
619
00:42:39,414 --> 00:42:40,992
Nothing balletic, of course.
620
00:42:41,083 --> 00:42:42,992
You're not a ballet devotee, are you?
621
00:42:43,085 --> 00:42:45,704
Yes. I was going to the ballet
before you were born.
622
00:42:45,794 --> 00:42:48,961
I saw Pavlova, Karsavina,
all the real ballet greats.
623
00:42:49,048 --> 00:42:51,753
You don't see dancing like that nowadays.
I'm sorry.
624
00:42:51,842 --> 00:42:54,547
That's okay. I don't expect you
to class me with Pavlova.
625
00:42:54,637 --> 00:42:55,882
In fact, if she were around...
626
00:42:55,972 --> 00:42:58,214
I doubt if she'd be good enough
to dance with you.
627
00:42:58,307 --> 00:43:00,382
You'd probably insist on an audition first.
628
00:43:00,474 --> 00:43:03,226
I sure would.
I'd audition my own grandmother.
629
00:43:03,311 --> 00:43:06,929
Then why don't you audition mine?
She'd be just about right for you.
630
00:43:07,023 --> 00:43:09,182
- I'm terribly sorry.
- No, you're not.
631
00:43:09,275 --> 00:43:10,770
- No, I'm not.
- Neither am I.
632
00:43:10,861 --> 00:43:11,940
Good.
633
00:43:16,657 --> 00:43:19,444
- Paul, I'm leaving.
- What's the matter, darling?
634
00:43:19,534 --> 00:43:21,692
I can't work with that man.
He's impossible.
635
00:43:21,786 --> 00:43:23,494
We just got here. It'll look funny...
636
00:43:23,579 --> 00:43:26,284
The whole thing is off.
This girl is a monster.
637
00:43:26,374 --> 00:43:28,367
I have definitely had it.
638
00:43:29,711 --> 00:43:33,792
And now, ladies and gentlemen,
the brains, the talent, the artists.
639
00:43:34,424 --> 00:43:36,831
Wonderful. Aren't they wonderful?
640
00:43:43,266 --> 00:43:45,508
You have no idea
how well things are going.
641
00:43:45,602 --> 00:43:47,345
It's really wonderful.
642
00:43:48,438 --> 00:43:50,311
Ladies and gentlemen.
643
00:43:50,398 --> 00:43:52,804
I want you all to meet
the happy little group...
644
00:43:52,898 --> 00:43:54,441
that's responsible for the show...
645
00:43:54,525 --> 00:43:57,776
that everyone will be clamouring
to get seats for next season.
646
00:43:57,862 --> 00:44:00,614
The celebrated choreographer Paul Byrd.
647
00:44:03,159 --> 00:44:07,108
The authors you know:
Lily and Lester Marton.
648
00:44:07,371 --> 00:44:09,031
Take a bow, Lily.
649
00:44:09,665 --> 00:44:11,622
And, ladies and gentlemen...
650
00:44:11,708 --> 00:44:13,951
my star, Tony Hunter.
651
00:44:14,045 --> 00:44:17,497
A name, a talent.
Mr. Show Business himself.
652
00:44:20,217 --> 00:44:23,469
And, ladies and gentlemen,
his new leading lady.
653
00:44:23,555 --> 00:44:27,633
That glamorous, delightful dancer
from the magical world of ballet.
654
00:44:27,723 --> 00:44:31,768
Mr. Hunter's own personal choice,
Gabrielle Gerard.
655
00:44:34,438 --> 00:44:38,104
I think, gentlemen, you will agree
your investment is safe, yes?
656
00:44:38,193 --> 00:44:41,027
Now let's relax and have a drink, shall we?
657
00:44:42,612 --> 00:44:46,610
My dear, how do you authors
ever think of these brilliant ideas?
658
00:44:46,700 --> 00:44:49,903
That damnation scene.
Did you ever in your life hear...
659
00:44:49,995 --> 00:44:53,993
My boy. I had the pleasure
of backing your last show, too.
660
00:44:54,416 --> 00:44:55,744
Jeffrey. How about...
661
00:45:12,474 --> 00:45:15,013
There it is, folks. The work light.
662
00:45:15,102 --> 00:45:18,055
Only an electric bulb, perhaps,
but for the next four weeks...
663
00:45:18,146 --> 00:45:20,981
that will be our sun, our moon, our stars.
664
00:45:21,149 --> 00:45:24,434
These four walls will be our universe,
our private world.
665
00:45:24,652 --> 00:45:27,857
We enter with nothing but a dream,
but when we leave...
666
00:45:27,948 --> 00:45:29,608
we'll have a show.
667
00:45:29,742 --> 00:45:34,116
In between, there will be enthusiasms,
frustrations, hot tempers...
668
00:45:34,202 --> 00:45:35,530
cold coffee.
669
00:45:35,620 --> 00:45:38,242
Some of us will fight, some fall in love...
670
00:45:38,331 --> 00:45:40,823
but all of us will work and adore it...
671
00:45:40,917 --> 00:45:43,873
because all of us are inspired
by the same thing.
672
00:45:43,963 --> 00:45:47,711
The night that curtain goes up,
it will go up on a smash hit.
673
00:45:47,925 --> 00:45:49,798
And believe me, kids...
674
00:45:50,051 --> 00:45:53,006
there's nothing in the world as soothing...
675
00:45:53,221 --> 00:45:55,131
as a smash hit.
676
00:46:47,939 --> 00:46:50,976
What do you think this is,
summer stock or something?
677
00:47:06,957 --> 00:47:09,531
POSITIVELY NO SMOKING
678
00:47:12,379 --> 00:47:13,410
Go!
679
00:47:14,923 --> 00:47:19,300
That's it. That's wonderful.
Why didn't you do it before?
680
00:47:19,386 --> 00:47:20,844
Good, men.
681
00:47:21,011 --> 00:47:23,634
Honey, would you try
that cross, please, again for me?
682
00:47:23,724 --> 00:47:26,891
"The same kind of opportunistic snake
that he is."
683
00:47:27,144 --> 00:47:29,929
"You got me wrong. I'm a self-made snake.
684
00:47:30,020 --> 00:47:33,389
"Listen, baby, we all live by the jungle:
Eat or be eaten.
685
00:47:33,482 --> 00:47:37,646
"I just realized that I like to eat,
and to eat caviar whenever possible.
686
00:47:37,737 --> 00:47:39,813
"Anything wrong with that?"
687
00:47:40,156 --> 00:47:42,860
"Anything wrong with that?" A bad line.
688
00:47:42,991 --> 00:47:47,568
What we need is some quick image,
like "spreading ideals on a cracker."
689
00:47:47,661 --> 00:47:50,615
You all like that?
"Ever try spreading ideals on a cracker?"
690
00:47:50,706 --> 00:47:52,165
Let me hear it, Tony.
691
00:47:52,249 --> 00:47:54,657
Did you ever try spreading ideals
on a cracker?
692
00:47:54,752 --> 00:47:57,623
- Jeff. I don't...
- Honey, just try that cross again for me.
693
00:47:57,713 --> 00:48:00,881
"The same kind of opportunistic snake
that he is."
694
00:48:01,510 --> 00:48:04,178
"You got me wrong. I'm a self-made snake.
695
00:48:04,261 --> 00:48:07,096
"Listen, baby.
We all live by the law of the jungle..."
696
00:48:07,181 --> 00:48:09,090
- Excuse me, Tony.
- "...eat or be eaten."
697
00:48:09,183 --> 00:48:10,808
Pardon me, folks.
698
00:48:17,901 --> 00:48:19,689
You know about icebergs, don't you?
699
00:48:19,775 --> 00:48:22,729
One-eighth above the surface,
seven-eighths below. That's you.
700
00:48:22,819 --> 00:48:25,820
You're giving me only that one-eighth.
I'm greedy. I want more.
701
00:48:25,905 --> 00:48:27,698
All eight-eighths. Now let it rip, Tony.
702
00:48:27,783 --> 00:48:31,911
Give it too much. Go way over.
Come along. The whole eight-eighths!
703
00:48:32,204 --> 00:48:33,579
Okay, Gaby. Same place.
704
00:48:33,663 --> 00:48:35,905
"The same kind of opportunistic snake
that he is."
705
00:48:35,999 --> 00:48:38,038
You got me wrong. I'm a self-made snake!
706
00:48:38,125 --> 00:48:41,376
Listen, baby. We all live by
the law of the jungle: Eat or be eaten!
707
00:48:41,462 --> 00:48:45,248
And I realized that I like to eat,
and eat caviar whenever possible.
708
00:48:45,343 --> 00:48:48,212
Did you ever try spreading ideals
on a cracker?
709
00:48:48,303 --> 00:48:51,090
Good boy, Tony. That's it. Eight-eighths.
710
00:49:03,525 --> 00:49:06,064
- Sorry. Butterfingers.
- No. It's not your fault, Tony.
711
00:49:06,153 --> 00:49:08,193
It's an awkward pattern.
I have a better idea.
712
00:49:08,281 --> 00:49:10,568
You hold your position right here,
and Jimmy...
713
00:49:10,656 --> 00:49:14,072
suppose you pick up Gaby like that,
and put her down...
714
00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:16,318
right here next to Tony?
Now you see, Tony...
715
00:49:16,411 --> 00:49:18,820
I'd like to practice it with her
two or three times.
716
00:49:18,915 --> 00:49:19,994
I think I could handle it.
717
00:49:20,083 --> 00:49:21,874
Do you mind if he tries it with Barbara?
718
00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:23,868
These are new toeshoes.
They're killing me.
719
00:49:23,961 --> 00:49:26,583
Sure. You go ahead and rest.
Barbara, come here. Try it.
720
00:49:26,671 --> 00:49:28,794
I think this is what's throwing you off.
721
00:49:28,882 --> 00:49:32,085
If you hold your balance so, like this,
then grab her here by the...
722
00:49:32,177 --> 00:49:34,965
Paul, I think we're making a mistake here.
723
00:49:38,641 --> 00:49:40,551
I think we're wasting Tony in this scene.
724
00:49:40,644 --> 00:49:43,894
He's got the first-act finale right after this.
The damnation scene.
725
00:49:43,980 --> 00:49:46,103
I don't want to dissipate
his impact in that.
726
00:49:46,190 --> 00:49:50,484
Now, why not let him exit into the house
and watch it from his balcony?
727
00:49:50,570 --> 00:49:52,112
- How'd that be?
- Wonderful idea.
728
00:49:52,197 --> 00:49:54,687
See what that would do?
Save your sock for the finale.
729
00:49:54,782 --> 00:49:55,980
Much better that way.
730
00:49:56,075 --> 00:49:58,365
Let's go back
to the beginning positions. Gaby.
731
00:49:58,453 --> 00:50:00,443
Boys, get around up here,
and the girls, yes.
732
00:50:00,536 --> 00:50:03,109
You were down here in the line like that.
Not too close.
733
00:50:03,205 --> 00:50:05,032
This group's down here, you're up there.
734
00:50:05,124 --> 00:50:06,868
- Let's try it this way.
- No!
735
00:50:06,959 --> 00:50:09,830
Let's not try it this way or any other way.
736
00:50:11,590 --> 00:50:15,718
I have had enough. I've had
three weeks of these lovely rehearsals...
737
00:50:15,802 --> 00:50:19,301
three weeks of Chinese torture.
I don't know what you're trying to do...
738
00:50:19,388 --> 00:50:22,092
except make me look like a complete fool.
A clumsy idiot.
739
00:50:22,182 --> 00:50:25,517
I've tried. For three weeks, I've tried.
I've taken everything.
740
00:50:25,603 --> 00:50:29,435
I've watched my part being changed,
my numbers being cut out day after day...
741
00:50:29,523 --> 00:50:30,602
and I haven't said a word.
742
00:50:30,691 --> 00:50:33,147
Got to be cooperative,
think of the good of the show.
743
00:50:33,235 --> 00:50:35,192
Let's get this straight:
744
00:50:35,570 --> 00:50:39,152
I am not Nijinsky. I am not Marlon Brando.
745
00:50:39,365 --> 00:50:42,781
I am Mrs. Hunter's little boy, Tony,
song-and-dance man.
746
00:50:42,869 --> 00:50:45,904
I'm supposed to have entertained
millions of people in my time.
747
00:50:45,996 --> 00:50:50,823
And I am not entertained by
this little ballerina's snide insinuations...
748
00:50:50,917 --> 00:50:52,791
that I am a no-talent hoofer.
749
00:50:52,877 --> 00:50:55,914
I am sick of her superior smirk.
I'm sick of her.
750
00:50:56,006 --> 00:50:59,956
I'm sick of Faust. I am sick of this show.
Never mind saying it!
751
00:51:00,052 --> 00:51:02,840
Tony Hunter, 1953.
752
00:51:03,306 --> 00:51:05,678
I hereby declare my independence.
753
00:51:05,891 --> 00:51:09,093
Tony Hunter, 1776.
754
00:51:09,477 --> 00:51:10,805
Bless you.
755
00:51:21,030 --> 00:51:23,651
STAGE DOOR
756
00:51:25,658 --> 00:51:28,446
- Lester, where are you going?
- I don't know. I was...
757
00:51:28,537 --> 00:51:32,784
What's happening to us? Let's try
to keep our heads. It's only a show.
758
00:51:32,875 --> 00:51:34,665
I know. I'm sorry, baby.
759
00:51:34,751 --> 00:51:37,871
So am I. Let's try to be sensible about it.
760
00:51:38,004 --> 00:51:41,918
- Do you think we should try to find Tony?
- I don't know. What do you think?
761
00:51:42,007 --> 00:51:44,296
- Maybe we should.
- But Jeff said not to.
762
00:51:44,385 --> 00:51:47,054
And, of course,
you mustn't disobey teacher.
763
00:51:47,138 --> 00:51:50,221
Right or wrong,
someone has got to be at the helm.
764
00:51:50,307 --> 00:51:52,881
But to you, he's 100% right every time.
765
00:51:52,977 --> 00:51:56,476
If you say one more word to me
about Jeff's hypnotic influence on me...
766
00:51:56,563 --> 00:51:59,350
- I'll scream.
- He's got you so bulldozed...
767
00:51:59,733 --> 00:52:01,690
Someone's liable to think we're quarrelling.
768
00:52:01,776 --> 00:52:04,064
We're not quarrelling.
We're in complete agreement.
769
00:52:04,153 --> 00:52:05,897
We hate each other.
770
00:52:11,911 --> 00:52:13,869
WE NEVER CLOSE - Cocktails
771
00:52:16,581 --> 00:52:20,793
Joe, tell Mrs. Marton I've gone to Tahiti...
772
00:52:21,378 --> 00:52:22,623
to paint.
773
00:52:47,862 --> 00:52:49,438
UNBREAKABLE
774
00:52:56,745 --> 00:53:00,161
- Hello, Mr. Hunter.
- You must have the wrong apartment.
775
00:53:00,249 --> 00:53:03,414
No. I came to see you.
May I come in a minute?
776
00:53:03,626 --> 00:53:04,789
Please.
777
00:53:06,211 --> 00:53:09,912
I was just about to slip
into my bed of nails.
778
00:53:16,055 --> 00:53:17,466
I'm terribly sorry.
779
00:53:17,557 --> 00:53:21,602
That's all right. You couldn't have done it
if I hadn't softened it up for you.
780
00:53:21,686 --> 00:53:23,178
- What?
- Nothing.
781
00:53:24,145 --> 00:53:25,639
- Cigarette?
- No, thanks.
782
00:53:25,730 --> 00:53:27,972
That's right. Dancers shouldn't smoke.
783
00:53:28,066 --> 00:53:30,983
- You mind if I do?
- Yes. I mean, it's all right.
784
00:53:31,068 --> 00:53:32,266
Thanks.
785
00:53:36,158 --> 00:53:37,485
How lovely.
786
00:53:38,493 --> 00:53:41,528
I've never seen such wonderful prints
in a hotel.
787
00:53:41,620 --> 00:53:45,664
They don't belong to the hotel yet.
They're mine, and they're originals.
788
00:53:46,082 --> 00:53:47,327
Don't let that throw you.
789
00:53:47,417 --> 00:53:51,498
I don't know any more about art than I do
about dancing. I'm just a Hollywood actor.
790
00:53:51,589 --> 00:53:53,913
I call my agent and say,
"I've got a wall to cover.
791
00:53:54,007 --> 00:53:57,506
"Send me over 20 feet's worth of paintings
in assorted colours."
792
00:53:59,219 --> 00:54:01,758
That's a very early Degas, isn't it?
793
00:54:02,766 --> 00:54:04,593
"1877."
794
00:54:06,353 --> 00:54:10,101
Yeah. I swiped it from his desk in school.
Was he sore.
795
00:54:13,358 --> 00:54:14,687
What can I do for you?
796
00:54:14,776 --> 00:54:18,193
I know. You demand an apology.
Okay, let's cut it short. I apologize.
797
00:54:18,280 --> 00:54:21,399
No, don't do that.
I'm supposed to apologize to you.
798
00:54:21,992 --> 00:54:23,190
I mean...
799
00:54:23,285 --> 00:54:26,072
I see, the fellows got together,
stuck a gun in your back...
800
00:54:26,163 --> 00:54:29,281
No, it was all my idea.
I just wanted to tell you that...
801
00:54:29,372 --> 00:54:31,579
All right. It was Paul's idea.
802
00:54:31,708 --> 00:54:33,618
Why do I let him push me around?
803
00:54:33,710 --> 00:54:36,414
What do I want to apologize
to you for anyway?
804
00:54:36,504 --> 00:54:38,378
You've been mean to me.
805
00:54:38,464 --> 00:54:41,836
You didn't want me in the show
in the first place.
806
00:54:41,928 --> 00:54:43,042
What?
807
00:54:43,137 --> 00:54:45,841
And you think
I'm a dime-a-dozen ballet dancer.
808
00:54:45,931 --> 00:54:46,962
No.
809
00:54:47,057 --> 00:54:50,591
And this whole thing's making me
a nervous wreck and no show is worth it.
810
00:54:50,685 --> 00:54:53,806
I wouldn't apologize to you
in a million years.
811
00:54:53,898 --> 00:54:58,025
Now, don't do that. Please, just
calm down. Now take it easy. Look.
812
00:54:58,235 --> 00:55:00,904
I thought I was the only nervous wreck
around here...
813
00:55:00,988 --> 00:55:02,895
and all this time you've been behaving...
814
00:55:02,988 --> 00:55:05,740
I've behaved horribly to you, and I know it.
815
00:55:05,824 --> 00:55:09,692
I'm not used to behaving horribly.
It's a big strain.
816
00:55:10,704 --> 00:55:14,155
You just misunderstood me, that's all.
I think you're terrific.
817
00:55:14,249 --> 00:55:17,914
I think everything in the show
is probably terrific, except me.
818
00:55:18,003 --> 00:55:20,327
I've been scared to death of you...
819
00:55:20,421 --> 00:55:23,707
and scared to death
of every last kid in the chorus.
820
00:55:26,928 --> 00:55:28,755
Don't be nice to me.
821
00:55:29,848 --> 00:55:32,885
It just makes me seem twice as ugly.
822
00:55:36,269 --> 00:55:39,804
I'd say you were more plain than ugly...
823
00:55:40,148 --> 00:55:42,852
- but at least you've got talent.
- Thanks.
824
00:55:43,609 --> 00:55:45,852
Now look, Gaby. It's just plain silly...
825
00:55:45,946 --> 00:55:48,271
that we have never sat down
and talked this out.
826
00:55:48,364 --> 00:55:51,650
We are the only animals given
the greatest means of communication...
827
00:55:51,743 --> 00:55:52,822
human speech.
828
00:55:52,911 --> 00:55:56,243
- And all we do is snarl at each other.
- I know.
829
00:55:56,329 --> 00:55:59,285
We're from two different worlds,
two eras...
830
00:55:59,375 --> 00:56:02,460
but yet we're supposed
to dance together, work together.
831
00:56:02,545 --> 00:56:04,204
No one consulted us...
832
00:56:04,296 --> 00:56:07,463
but we're the only things that matter
in this whole thing.
833
00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:11,133
Not those geniuses out there,
telling us what to do.
834
00:56:11,636 --> 00:56:15,136
You're right.
We have to do the performing.
835
00:56:15,682 --> 00:56:18,219
We're the ones
that have to get up on that stage...
836
00:56:18,309 --> 00:56:22,723
- and make idiots out of ourselves.
- Tony, is that what's going to happen?
837
00:56:22,898 --> 00:56:25,982
No. Of course not.
Things are going to be fine.
838
00:56:26,067 --> 00:56:29,601
I have a feeling that everything
is going to be much better from now on.
839
00:56:29,695 --> 00:56:31,439
Yes, I know, but...
840
00:56:33,156 --> 00:56:35,695
Can you and I really dance together?
841
00:56:36,578 --> 00:56:38,036
I don't know.
842
00:56:39,163 --> 00:56:40,657
Let's find out.
843
00:56:46,001 --> 00:56:47,958
- Taxi, sir?
- Yes, please.
844
00:56:53,634 --> 00:56:55,592
- El Morocco, please.
- No.
845
00:56:56,304 --> 00:56:57,502
Stork? Waldorf?
846
00:56:57,597 --> 00:57:00,219
No. I'm not dressed.
I just came from rehearsal.
847
00:57:00,307 --> 00:57:03,143
- I can't go to any of those places.
- You look fine to me.
848
00:57:03,227 --> 00:57:05,469
- Never mind. Thanks.
- Thank you.
849
00:57:11,193 --> 00:57:14,195
- Where to, sir?
- Leave it to the horse.
850
00:57:23,912 --> 00:57:25,703
Look, trees.
851
00:57:26,415 --> 00:57:29,370
Yes, I remember now, dimly. Trees.
852
00:57:30,335 --> 00:57:32,459
And isn't that called grass?
853
00:57:33,339 --> 00:57:35,377
And, look, there's the sky.
854
00:57:36,216 --> 00:57:37,757
This has all been here...
855
00:57:37,841 --> 00:57:41,343
the whole time we have been
shut up in our little sweatbox of the arts.
856
00:57:41,431 --> 00:57:43,222
Really? Amazing.
857
00:57:43,683 --> 00:57:46,968
Do you know what those are
on those benches? People.
858
00:57:47,311 --> 00:57:48,474
Happy people.
859
00:57:48,562 --> 00:57:50,602
Would you believe it?
They don't even care...
860
00:57:50,687 --> 00:57:54,021
whether we have a damnation scene
in our show or not.
861
00:57:55,526 --> 00:57:56,985
Neither do I.
862
01:02:33,037 --> 01:02:36,821
New Haven THEATRICAL TRANSPORT CO.
New Haven, Conn.
863
01:02:37,833 --> 01:02:39,909
NEW HAVEN THEATRE - STAGE ENTRANCE
864
01:02:41,128 --> 01:02:43,001
You can't get it into the elevators.
865
01:02:43,088 --> 01:02:46,623
And you take this one here,
and it won't fit the finale.
866
01:02:46,758 --> 01:02:49,297
- How are we doing?
- It's a disaster.
867
01:02:49,386 --> 01:02:52,471
We're in terrible trouble.
We just can't open in three days.
868
01:02:52,556 --> 01:02:56,220
I told you from the beginning,
you are overloading the show.
869
01:02:56,308 --> 01:02:58,681
You can't get all this scenery
in the theatre.
870
01:02:58,769 --> 01:03:01,723
- Why isn't this hung?
- We've been hanging all night.
871
01:03:01,815 --> 01:03:04,270
You've got more scenery in this show...
872
01:03:04,359 --> 01:03:06,565
than there is in Yellowstone National Park.
873
01:03:06,653 --> 01:03:09,523
Never mind. Get your blueprints.
We'll go have a conference.
874
01:03:09,614 --> 01:03:12,068
Everything will work out all right.
875
01:03:16,954 --> 01:03:20,287
Hold it. I scored for brass,
and all I hear is flute.
876
01:03:20,374 --> 01:03:22,082
I don't want so many long bows.
877
01:03:22,167 --> 01:03:25,168
Lester, I gotta cut 16 bars
out of that dance.
878
01:03:25,753 --> 01:03:27,626
Sixteen bars! Hey, Lil.
879
01:03:28,172 --> 01:03:31,042
All right, I'll make the cut. Page to page.
880
01:03:31,133 --> 01:03:33,623
Would you ask Lily
if she approves the cut?
881
01:03:33,718 --> 01:03:36,091
- Lil, how about this cut?
- It's fine.
882
01:03:36,179 --> 01:03:37,924
Okay, Lester. Let's give it to her.
883
01:03:38,016 --> 01:03:41,301
This'll sound like hash.
I better put some chords in for transition.
884
01:03:41,394 --> 01:03:44,679
Wait, just a minute.
Sublime, time, dime, slime...
885
01:03:44,772 --> 01:03:46,895
You can't hear Tony in Lovelier Than You.
886
01:03:46,981 --> 01:03:50,600
- I'm already holding down the orchestra.
- Maybe the key's too low.
887
01:03:51,319 --> 01:03:53,646
Ask Lester if Tony can take it a key higher.
888
01:03:53,740 --> 01:03:55,731
About Lovelier Than You,
Les, a key higher?
889
01:03:55,824 --> 01:03:58,529
Don't you see I'm trying to make a cut?
The key's perfect.
890
01:03:58,619 --> 01:04:01,985
- But Lily said you'd make the change.
- The key is...
891
01:04:05,373 --> 01:04:08,079
Everyone on their toes
for the transformation scene.
892
01:04:08,169 --> 01:04:10,955
- We're not ready.
- Perfectly all right. Next.
893
01:04:11,046 --> 01:04:13,204
Watch it.
I'll cue you for the transition music.
894
01:04:13,298 --> 01:04:15,006
Isn't it great? Herman.
895
01:04:15,092 --> 01:04:16,965
Everybody ready back there?
896
01:04:17,050 --> 01:04:19,210
We got to have more time
to make the change.
897
01:04:19,304 --> 01:04:22,554
- I've got to have 16 more men.
- I got elevators...
898
01:04:22,642 --> 01:04:24,051
Do the best you can.
899
01:04:24,142 --> 01:04:25,934
All right, everybody. This is it.
900
01:04:26,019 --> 01:04:28,854
Men in the elevators,
watch the signal lights for your cues.
901
01:04:28,939 --> 01:04:32,106
Switchboards. Stand by to come down
your number one batten on cue.
902
01:04:32,192 --> 01:04:35,145
Girls on stairs, take your positions,
but don't be frightened.
903
01:04:35,235 --> 01:04:37,524
Men in Armour, light your chandeliers.
904
01:04:37,613 --> 01:04:41,859
All right, make this great, everybody.
Don't forget, it's the first-act finale.
905
01:04:43,493 --> 01:04:46,198
Are you guys all right in there?
Now, watch your cue.
906
01:04:47,456 --> 01:04:48,915
Light change.
907
01:04:48,999 --> 01:04:50,197
Revolve.
908
01:04:54,837 --> 01:04:57,079
This is going to be beautiful.
909
01:04:57,506 --> 01:05:00,044
It will be a memorable moment.
910
01:05:00,426 --> 01:05:01,754
Memorable.
911
01:05:03,846 --> 01:05:05,839
This is real theatre.
912
01:05:05,932 --> 01:05:09,465
Everything's smooth as silk.
913
01:05:12,104 --> 01:05:16,765
No, Herman, that doesn't go up,
it goes down. Take it down.
914
01:05:17,609 --> 01:05:19,566
What is this? Herman!
915
01:05:20,237 --> 01:05:22,905
I don't think you've got your cues right!
916
01:05:23,030 --> 01:05:24,608
No, stop!
917
01:05:25,116 --> 01:05:29,243
That one doesn't go down, it goes up.
Take it up.
918
01:05:30,621 --> 01:05:33,539
For heaven's sake, look at your cue sheet.
919
01:05:35,710 --> 01:05:39,873
Take it up. No, not me.
920
01:05:40,840 --> 01:05:43,874
Herman, this cable has fouled.
921
01:05:57,896 --> 01:05:59,770
Calm down. Don't let us lose our heads.
922
01:05:59,856 --> 01:06:02,645
This is a setback,
but that's what we come out of town for.
923
01:06:02,735 --> 01:06:03,898
We'll never make it work.
924
01:06:03,987 --> 01:06:07,402
Of course it will. You boys get together,
think of something brilliant.
925
01:06:07,490 --> 01:06:10,740
You can't put Gaby on that thing.
It's dangerous. I won't allow it.
926
01:06:10,826 --> 01:06:13,862
It's all right. After all, we expected
to strike a snag or two.
927
01:06:13,954 --> 01:06:16,824
Get the full company in the lounge
for dialogue rehearsal...
928
01:06:16,914 --> 01:06:20,579
while they're clearing the stage.
We can't afford to waste a moment.
929
01:06:38,477 --> 01:06:41,147
Here. I'm sorry. I forgot.
930
01:06:47,528 --> 01:06:48,984
That help?
931
01:06:49,903 --> 01:06:51,397
All right?
932
01:06:54,742 --> 01:06:56,781
If you've quite finished, let's try this.
933
01:06:56,869 --> 01:06:59,538
We're going to get the stage soon.
You don't know it yet.
934
01:06:59,622 --> 01:07:04,330
Paul, I'm afraid Gaby's kind of beat.
Nobody's had any sleep for two nights.
935
01:07:04,501 --> 01:07:05,875
Can't you let her rest a while?
936
01:07:06,001 --> 01:07:08,873
If you don't mind, Tony,
I've worked with her for many years.
937
01:07:08,964 --> 01:07:11,371
I happen to know her a good deal
better than you do.
938
01:07:11,466 --> 01:07:12,794
All right, Gaby. Come on.
939
01:07:12,884 --> 01:07:14,508
Madame, may I have this dance?
940
01:07:14,594 --> 01:07:17,677
Cut the clowning. It's not going to seem
so funny tomorrow night.
941
01:07:17,763 --> 01:07:19,138
All right, Adam.
942
01:07:28,482 --> 01:07:32,016
Okay, Paul, they're ready for you on-stage.
Come on.
943
01:07:37,033 --> 01:07:40,898
This is the big moment.
Hal, come on. Take it over there.
944
01:07:40,993 --> 01:07:45,075
Tony, Gaby, this is it.
I want it to be outstanding.
945
01:07:45,457 --> 01:07:50,582
It must be beautiful, fabulous,
warm, and fiery.
946
01:07:54,006 --> 01:07:57,005
Your cue is, "Dance, fools, dance!"
947
01:08:56,274 --> 01:09:00,187
Hal, it seems to be a little too much,
doesn't it?
948
01:09:01,362 --> 01:09:02,606
Yes.
949
01:09:04,614 --> 01:09:07,614
Are we really supposed
to open tomorrow night?
950
01:09:13,164 --> 01:09:15,453
"Dance, fools, dance!"
951
01:09:25,842 --> 01:09:28,760
The New Haven Theatre PRESENTS THE
952
01:09:28,845 --> 01:09:31,763
JEFFREY CORDOVA PRODUCTION OF
The Band Wagon
953
01:09:31,849 --> 01:09:33,557
OPENING TONIGHT
NEW GREAT MUSICAL
954
01:09:33,642 --> 01:09:36,475
ALL OF THE NATION'S GREATEST HITS
955
01:09:37,728 --> 01:09:40,433
Hello, there! It's a big night.
956
01:09:42,691 --> 01:09:46,061
Everybody is here from New York.
Simply everybody.
957
01:09:46,154 --> 01:09:49,108
Do you hear that, my dear?
Everybody from New York is here.
958
01:09:49,990 --> 01:09:52,695
Come on. Don't want you
to miss the overture.
959
01:09:53,618 --> 01:09:55,528
Think we should get ready, boys?
960
01:09:55,621 --> 01:09:58,823
No, we can finish this hand.
Nobody's made a pep talk yet.
961
01:09:59,291 --> 01:10:00,370
Pep talk?
962
01:10:00,959 --> 01:10:03,830
Yeah. I never seen an opening night yet
without some guy...
963
01:10:03,921 --> 01:10:07,621
gets all the poor actors together
and makes them a long speech:
964
01:10:07,716 --> 01:10:09,460
"They should be brilliant."
965
01:10:09,800 --> 01:10:12,290
On-stage, please. Everybody on-stage.
966
01:10:14,762 --> 01:10:16,720
Mr. Cordova wants to say a few words.
967
01:10:16,806 --> 01:10:20,175
Come on, girls. Hurry up. Let's go.
Step right along.
968
01:10:26,607 --> 01:10:30,475
Company, a final word.
You've all been just wonderful.
969
01:10:30,653 --> 01:10:32,231
Thanks for your cooperation.
970
01:10:32,323 --> 01:10:35,406
Tonight, we're about to perform
before an audience in a theatre.
971
01:10:35,492 --> 01:10:38,327
It's not only a temple of the arts,
but a place of business.
972
01:10:38,412 --> 01:10:41,696
And I feel we have here a venture
that is successful on both counts.
973
01:10:41,789 --> 01:10:45,158
Nothing to be nervous about.
We've got to keep our wits and do a show.
974
01:10:45,250 --> 01:10:47,742
There will be rough spots,
but we'll smooth them out.
975
01:10:47,836 --> 01:10:50,374
Remember, that's what
we came out of town for.
976
01:10:50,463 --> 01:10:53,417
Up to now,
I've been giving you orders as director...
977
01:10:54,009 --> 01:10:57,507
but when next you see me,
I shall be just as one of you...
978
01:10:57,595 --> 01:11:00,382
an eager ham, anxious to make good.
979
01:11:00,973 --> 01:11:03,808
Actors, let's go.
980
01:11:03,976 --> 01:11:06,468
All right, people.
Get ready for the tableau, girls.
981
01:11:06,563 --> 01:11:09,184
Finish your make-up.
Come on, girls. Let's go.
982
01:11:10,901 --> 01:11:12,858
I'm so glad you folks could come.
983
01:11:12,986 --> 01:11:16,023
And don't forget the big party
at the hotel after the show.
984
01:11:16,115 --> 01:11:18,437
The whole cast will be there.
You'll meet them all.
985
01:11:18,531 --> 01:11:22,611
Of course, I have to go backstage
to congratulate them afterwards.
986
01:11:22,785 --> 01:11:24,992
I'll see you all at the party.
987
01:11:25,455 --> 01:11:27,246
All New York is here.
988
01:11:28,166 --> 01:11:30,159
Big party at the hotel after the show.
989
01:11:30,252 --> 01:11:33,620
I'll look for you. Big party, big show.
Come on, now.
990
01:11:35,672 --> 01:11:38,709
We don't want to miss a thing.
Now, don't forget the party.
991
01:11:38,801 --> 01:11:42,501
Evelyn, big party at the hotel
after the show.
992
01:11:42,596 --> 01:11:44,221
I'll look for you.
993
01:11:45,683 --> 01:11:47,342
Champagne's on me.
994
01:11:49,144 --> 01:11:53,639
The Band Wagon
WILL BE THE Great Hit OF THE YEAR
995
01:12:33,394 --> 01:12:36,561
Shall I drive you to the hotel, sir,
to the party?
996
01:12:38,023 --> 01:12:39,304
No. Drive me to the station.
997
01:12:39,400 --> 01:12:42,318
Maybe I can still make the 11:40
back to New York.
998
01:12:42,403 --> 01:12:43,648
Yes, sir.
999
01:13:15,933 --> 01:13:19,551
- Good evening.
- I was looking for The Band Wagon party.
1000
01:13:19,646 --> 01:13:21,224
This is it, sir.
1001
01:13:30,323 --> 01:13:33,027
Let's go. Hurry up. Champagne.
1002
01:13:39,706 --> 01:13:41,699
This way, please.
1003
01:14:14,198 --> 01:14:16,985
- Are you leaving, sir?
- Yes. Good night.
1004
01:14:18,827 --> 01:14:20,950
We must do this more often.
1005
01:14:25,333 --> 01:14:29,959
Oh, give me something
to remember you by
1006
01:14:32,465 --> 01:14:37,008
When you are far away from me
1007
01:14:39,846 --> 01:14:41,885
Some little something
1008
01:14:41,972 --> 01:14:43,846
It's all Annie's fault.
1009
01:14:45,017 --> 01:14:49,429
I should have listened to my mother.
She told me only to be in hit shows.
1010
01:14:51,901 --> 01:14:53,525
Hi, I don't want to barge in.
1011
01:14:53,611 --> 01:14:56,182
I just want to tell you all
how great I think you are.
1012
01:14:56,278 --> 01:14:58,235
I didn't get a chance
to know you very well.
1013
01:14:58,322 --> 01:15:03,234
- I'm sorry I messed up the show for you.
- Wait a minute, come on in, have a drink.
1014
01:15:03,327 --> 01:15:06,494
- I don't want to crash the party.
- Give Mr. Hunter a drink.
1015
01:15:06,581 --> 01:15:09,285
- What do you say, Scotch, rye, or beer?
- Beer's fine.
1016
01:15:09,375 --> 01:15:12,160
- One beer, coming up.
- Want some pizza pie?
1017
01:15:12,251 --> 01:15:15,252
How about a sandwich?
We've got ham and devilled egg.
1018
01:15:15,337 --> 01:15:17,959
I've had enough of both for one night.
1019
01:15:23,221 --> 01:15:27,633
Far away
Me, oh, my
1020
01:15:27,724 --> 01:15:31,472
Only yesterday
1021
01:15:35,399 --> 01:15:38,399
There we were, the whole act,
the 10 Tapping Troubadours.
1022
01:15:38,485 --> 01:15:40,561
The 10 Tapping Troubadours?
1023
01:15:40,654 --> 01:15:42,066
Yeah, believe it or not...
1024
01:15:42,157 --> 01:15:44,564
we were stranded in Pittsburgh
with $3 between us...
1025
01:15:44,659 --> 01:15:47,657
crammed into one room
the size of that closet.
1026
01:15:48,952 --> 01:15:52,037
Gaby, come on in.
We're having a good old-fashioned wake.
1027
01:15:53,289 --> 01:15:55,117
I've been looking all over for you.
1028
01:15:55,209 --> 01:15:56,288
Where is Paul?
1029
01:15:56,377 --> 01:15:59,331
He's at a very exclusive wake
with Jeff and the Martons.
1030
01:15:59,422 --> 01:16:01,710
Can I get you a drink, Gaby?
How about a beer?
1031
01:16:01,799 --> 01:16:03,671
How about some popcorn?
1032
01:16:06,761 --> 01:16:08,754
Lily, Lester, come on in.
1033
01:16:09,598 --> 01:16:12,931
Are you sure? Don't you remember?
We wrote that thing.
1034
01:16:13,018 --> 01:16:15,638
This is a wonderful party. Come on in.
1035
01:16:16,270 --> 01:16:19,603
Who's going to go out and get the beer?
Okay, Sis, you're elected.
1036
01:16:19,690 --> 01:16:21,600
Tony, watch this!
1037
01:16:24,278 --> 01:16:25,689
More beer!
1038
01:16:26,822 --> 01:16:29,229
I'll never forget. You blew a gasket.
1039
01:16:29,324 --> 01:16:31,530
You were really gone. Come on.
1040
01:16:34,622 --> 01:16:37,621
Come on, Tony. Come on, get with it.
1041
01:16:37,707 --> 01:16:41,871
- How I love the glass of beer
- More beer
1042
01:16:42,462 --> 01:16:47,124
- Beer goes very good with beer
- More beer
1043
01:16:47,300 --> 01:16:51,962
When I'm drinking beer I'm thinking
'"Ach, life is dear'"
1044
01:16:52,096 --> 01:16:56,970
But there's someone I love
even more than beer
1045
01:16:58,726 --> 01:17:03,187
I love Louisa
Louisa loves me
1046
01:17:03,607 --> 01:17:08,150
When we rode on the merry-go-round
I kissed Louisa
1047
01:17:08,236 --> 01:17:12,317
And then Louisa
Louisa kissed me
1048
01:17:12,865 --> 01:17:17,326
We were so happy
So happy and free
1049
01:17:17,621 --> 01:17:21,997
Ach! Ach! But she's a
beautiful Louisa
1050
01:17:22,083 --> 01:17:26,625
Ach! When I choose 'em
I never want to lose 'em
1051
01:17:26,712 --> 01:17:31,289
Someday Louisa
Louisa will be
1052
01:17:31,382 --> 01:17:34,382
More als just a Fräulein to me
1053
01:17:38,223 --> 01:17:42,516
- Frenchmen love a glass of wine
- More beer
1054
01:17:42,602 --> 01:17:47,144
- The English think the whiskey's fine
- More beer
1055
01:17:47,230 --> 01:17:51,645
But when I comb off all the foam off
I drink a toast
1056
01:17:51,861 --> 01:17:54,649
To the Germans and the Mädchen
1057
01:17:54,740 --> 01:17:58,274
I love most
1058
01:17:58,451 --> 01:18:02,863
Ich liebe Louisa
Louisa liebt Mich
1059
01:18:03,038 --> 01:18:07,830
Wenn wir auf das Ringelspiel gehen
Ich küsse Louisa
1060
01:18:07,917 --> 01:18:11,748
Und dann Louisa
Louisa küsst Mich
1061
01:18:11,837 --> 01:18:16,714
Wir sind so glücklich
So glücklich sind wir
1062
01:18:16,802 --> 01:18:21,343
Ach! Ach! But she's a
beautiful Louisa
1063
01:18:21,430 --> 01:18:26,091
Ach! When I choose 'em
I never want to lose 'em
1064
01:18:43,743 --> 01:18:48,120
Ach! Ach! But she's a
beautiful Louisa
1065
01:18:48,205 --> 01:18:52,498
Ach! When I choose 'em
I never want to lose 'em
1066
01:18:52,584 --> 01:18:56,914
Someday Louisa
Louisa will be
1067
01:18:57,005 --> 01:19:00,209
More than just a Fräulein to me
1068
01:19:00,301 --> 01:19:04,629
More beer!
More beer!
1069
01:19:04,721 --> 01:19:08,421
More beer!
1070
01:19:24,114 --> 01:19:27,779
Gosh, with all this raw talent around,
why can't us kids get together...
1071
01:19:27,868 --> 01:19:29,327
and put on ourselves a show?
1072
01:19:29,411 --> 01:19:33,195
Maybe we can find ourselves
a barn or something, and maybe...
1073
01:19:36,794 --> 01:19:39,284
I could stand anything but failure.
1074
01:19:40,714 --> 01:19:43,120
- Where's the telephone?
- In there.
1075
01:19:50,639 --> 01:19:53,176
Give me Jeff Cordova's room, please.
1076
01:19:54,350 --> 01:19:57,884
Hello, Jeff. This is Tony.
Now, don't say anything. Just listen.
1077
01:19:57,978 --> 01:20:00,648
I'm here with all the kids,
and we've come to a decision.
1078
01:20:00,731 --> 01:20:04,647
We're not closing this show,
if you can call it a show. We're going on.
1079
01:20:04,736 --> 01:20:08,152
We're going to keep it on the road
and redo it from top to bottom.
1080
01:20:08,239 --> 01:20:10,148
It won't be a modern version of Faust...
1081
01:20:10,241 --> 01:20:12,912
Pilgrim's Progress, or the Book of Job
in swing time.
1082
01:20:12,995 --> 01:20:15,744
It'll be our show,
the show we started out to do...
1083
01:20:15,829 --> 01:20:18,498
the book the Martons wrote,
with the songs you threw out.
1084
01:20:18,582 --> 01:20:21,535
It'll have laughs and entertainment.
You remember entertainment?
1085
01:20:21,625 --> 01:20:23,665
Look, we'd love to have you with us, Jeff.
1086
01:20:23,753 --> 01:20:25,912
But if you're not,
it won't make any difference.
1087
01:20:26,006 --> 01:20:27,500
We're going ahead just the same.
1088
01:20:27,591 --> 01:20:30,544
We're going to put this thing across,
aren't we, kids?
1089
01:20:30,635 --> 01:20:33,801
- All right. What do you say?
- Hello? There's nobody here.
1090
01:20:33,888 --> 01:20:36,804
This is the chambermaid, but if you want...
1091
01:20:36,890 --> 01:20:40,307
- I'll leave a message for Mr. Cordova.
- Thank you, madam.
1092
01:20:40,853 --> 01:20:42,264
He isn't in.
1093
01:20:53,782 --> 01:20:56,190
Jeff, did you hear what I said?
1094
01:20:57,868 --> 01:21:01,285
Tony, I've learned one thing in the theatre,
and it's this:
1095
01:21:01,372 --> 01:21:04,658
one man has to be at the helm,
the rest take orders.
1096
01:21:05,542 --> 01:21:09,375
I believe in what you said.
I got carried away in the wrong direction.
1097
01:21:09,463 --> 01:21:14,208
You've got to be the boss, Tony.
I think you can pull this off brilliantly...
1098
01:21:15,469 --> 01:21:17,795
and I'd like to be a part of it.
1099
01:21:19,890 --> 01:21:21,053
Jeff, you're all right.
1100
01:21:21,141 --> 01:21:23,381
I must tell you one thing.
There isn't any money.
1101
01:21:23,475 --> 01:21:26,760
Colonel Todd and the backers
have stolen away into the night.
1102
01:21:26,853 --> 01:21:27,968
- We've got backers.
- Who?
1103
01:21:28,062 --> 01:21:30,270
A bunch of painters.
A fellow named Degas from...
1104
01:21:30,358 --> 01:21:33,395
- You wouldn't sell your paintings.
- Sure, they love the theatre.
1105
01:21:33,487 --> 01:21:37,566
I figure we need five or six weeks on tour
to do what we have to do with this show.
1106
01:21:37,657 --> 01:21:40,194
- Jeff, would you help us with bookings?
- Of course.
1107
01:21:40,284 --> 01:21:43,618
Hal, have you got paper and pencil?
We can send a telegram.
1108
01:21:46,123 --> 01:21:48,245
- Washington? Washington's open.
- And Boston.
1109
01:21:48,333 --> 01:21:49,412
Boston's very good.
1110
01:21:49,501 --> 01:21:52,787
Can we go to Philadelphia, Detroit,
then come on back to New York?
1111
01:21:52,880 --> 01:21:56,543
- Paul, aren't you excited?
- Yeah. It's wonderful.
1112
01:21:57,591 --> 01:21:59,584
I wish them a lot of luck.
1113
01:22:01,095 --> 01:22:04,427
- This kind of leaves us out.
- Why?
1114
01:22:04,889 --> 01:22:08,141
With Tony doing the dances,
it's not going to be my kind of show.
1115
01:22:08,227 --> 01:22:11,014
Yours, either. I don't want you to do it.
1116
01:22:12,772 --> 01:22:15,097
I wouldn't think of leaving the show, Paul.
1117
01:22:15,191 --> 01:22:19,937
- I've worked too hard on your career to...
- It's my career, and I want to stay.
1118
01:22:21,657 --> 01:22:24,860
I'm taking the 9:00 train
tomorrow morning for New York.
1119
01:22:24,952 --> 01:22:26,944
I expect you to be there.
1120
01:22:28,706 --> 01:22:30,613
Have a nice trip, Paul.
1121
01:22:35,920 --> 01:22:38,541
Dancers, singers, the sketches.
1122
01:22:42,592 --> 01:22:45,877
Listen, kids,
it's going to mean rehearsing every day...
1123
01:22:46,304 --> 01:22:48,462
all day, right up to curtain time.
1124
01:22:48,556 --> 01:22:51,925
We're going to put in new numbers,
and learn them as fast as we can...
1125
01:22:52,018 --> 01:22:54,852
and we're going to yank out all that junk.
1126
01:22:56,188 --> 01:22:59,772
We've got our schedule all worked out,
and it looks pretty good now.
1127
01:22:59,860 --> 01:23:02,978
Philadelphia, Boston, Pittsburgh...
1128
01:23:03,070 --> 01:23:05,395
Washington, Baltimore...
1129
01:23:07,116 --> 01:23:09,736
PHILADELPHIA
1130
01:23:21,295 --> 01:23:26,171
I see a new sun up in a new sky
1131
01:23:26,384 --> 01:23:31,010
And my whole horizon
has reached a new high
1132
01:23:31,639 --> 01:23:36,299
Yesterday my heart sang a blue song
1133
01:23:36,392 --> 01:23:41,303
But today hear it hum a cheery new song
1134
01:23:41,397 --> 01:23:46,189
I dreamed a new dream
I saw a new face
1135
01:23:46,318 --> 01:23:51,315
And I'm spreading sunshine
all over the place
1136
01:23:51,409 --> 01:23:56,318
With a new point of view
here's what greets my eye
1137
01:23:57,080 --> 01:23:59,285
New love
1138
01:23:59,373 --> 01:24:01,496
New luck
1139
01:24:01,583 --> 01:24:06,329
- New sun
- And there's a new sun
1140
01:24:06,464 --> 01:24:11,420
In the sky
1141
01:24:14,511 --> 01:24:17,085
BOSTON
1142
01:24:20,893 --> 01:24:24,807
I guess I'll have to change my plan
1143
01:24:25,856 --> 01:24:29,984
I should've realized
there'd be another man
1144
01:24:30,527 --> 01:24:34,858
I overlooked that point completely
1145
01:24:35,366 --> 01:24:39,613
Until the big affair began
1146
01:24:40,121 --> 01:24:43,867
Before I knew where I was at
1147
01:24:44,999 --> 01:24:49,044
I found myself up on the shelf
And that was that
1148
01:24:49,795 --> 01:24:54,587
I tried to reach the moon
But when I got there
1149
01:24:55,719 --> 01:24:59,051
All that I could get was the air
1150
01:24:59,138 --> 01:25:03,265
My feet are back upon the ground
1151
01:25:03,975 --> 01:25:08,804
I've lost the one girl I found
1152
01:26:08,161 --> 01:26:10,616
WASHINGTON
1153
01:26:15,627 --> 01:26:18,663
Get goin', Louisiana hayride
1154
01:26:18,755 --> 01:26:23,631
Get goin', we all is ready

01:26:23,885 --> 01:26:26,125
No use for callin' the roll
1156
01:26:26,219 --> 01:26:29,386
Oh, I like that sport
sittin' in the hay
1157
01:26:29,472 --> 01:26:31,713
Lovin' it away, oh, oh
1158
01:26:31,807 --> 01:26:34,927
For the time is short
Crack your little whip
1159
01:26:35,019 --> 01:26:37,059
Get your little ship to go
1160
01:26:37,647 --> 01:26:40,683
Start somethin', Louisiana hayride
1161
01:26:40,775 --> 01:26:45,650
No foolin', we all is happy
Get goin', Louisiana hayride
1162
01:26:46,029 --> 01:26:48,153
No use for callin' the roll
1163
01:26:48,658 --> 01:26:51,280
- Jasmine Washington

1164
01:26:51,370 --> 01:26:54,074

We is here
We all here

1170
01:27:10,261 --> 01:27:13,013

We all here
We all here
1173
01:27:18,727 --> 01:27:19,842
Can't you see?
1174
01:27:19,937 --> 01:27:22,807
If you is really ready
And you're goin' steady
1175
01:27:22,898 --> 01:27:25,567
Get goin', Louisiana hay
1176
01:27:25,650 --> 01:27:29,565
Louisiana hayride
1177
01:27:29,655 --> 01:27:34,446
Start something, Louisiana hay
And no use to call, no use to call
1178
01:27:34,534 --> 01:27:38,317
- It's no use
- No use to bother to call the roll
1179
01:27:38,412 --> 01:27:40,286
Get goin', get goin'
1180
01:27:40,373 --> 01:27:44,073
I like that sport, sittin' in the hay
Lovin' it away, ow, ow
1181
01:27:45,878 --> 01:27:49,710
The time is short, crack your little whip
Get your little ship
1182
01:27:49,798 --> 01:27:54,175
- Get your little ship
- Get your little ship to go
1183
01:27:54,260 --> 01:27:57,262
Get goin'
Louisiana hayride
1184
01:27:57,348 --> 01:28:01,843
Clear the way
Watch out, kindly step aside
1185
01:28:02,352 --> 01:28:05,801
Get goin'
1186
01:28:05,978 --> 01:28:10,807
Louisiana hayride
1187
01:28:22,120 --> 01:28:26,699
The scene's only about two minutes.
You won't have time to make the change.
1188
01:28:28,710 --> 01:28:32,079
I know it's a rough deal,
but we won't make New York if we don't.
1189
01:28:32,172 --> 01:28:36,086
- As much rehearsal time as possible.
- Better call them at 10:00.
1190
01:28:36,760 --> 01:28:40,673
Don't forget, everybody.
Rehearsal, 10:00 on the dot, Baltimore.
1191
01:28:40,762 --> 01:28:44,427
That case is important.
Tell you what we'll do, when we start.
1192
01:28:44,515 --> 01:28:46,593
Say, who's the pretty girl?
1193
01:28:47,061 --> 01:28:49,633
Why, this couldn't be
the mousy little Miss Gerard.
1194
01:28:49,729 --> 01:28:53,348
You've been with the firm for years.
I've never seen you with glasses on.
1195
01:28:53,442 --> 01:28:57,188
Say, you are beautiful. How are you, Gaby?
1196
01:28:57,402 --> 01:28:59,775
- I'm all right. Thanks.
- Good.
1197
01:29:03,035 --> 01:29:06,071
Mr. Paul Byrd - 8485th Avenue
New York, N.Y.
1198
01:29:06,621 --> 01:29:07,950
I'm sorry.
1199
01:29:08,832 --> 01:29:11,951
- You must be tired.
- Yes, I am, a little.
1200
01:29:12,542 --> 01:29:15,709
- Bet you are, too.
- A little.
1201
01:29:22,594 --> 01:29:26,093
Lester, look, I've got a problem
with these two numbers.
1202
01:29:26,181 --> 01:29:28,967
The murder mystery has a jazz beat
and I don't want it to...
1203
01:29:29,058 --> 01:29:33,636
- Anyone heard from Paul Byrd?
- No, I haven't heard.
1204
01:29:33,729 --> 01:29:36,979
As a matter of fact, nobody has.
At least they haven't mentioned it.
1205
01:29:37,066 --> 01:29:39,392
- Wasn't he going to...
- What a rat.
1206
01:29:39,486 --> 01:29:42,190
Rat? Lester, wait a second.
1207
01:29:43,197 --> 01:29:46,150
He's a wonderful guy,
wonderful and talented.
1208
01:29:46,241 --> 01:29:49,858
He's written... Listen, don't sell him short.
That boy has got a lot...
1209
01:29:49,952 --> 01:29:53,738
He may be a little young, yes.
He needs a little more experience.
1210
01:29:53,832 --> 01:29:56,204
- Just give him a few more years.
- Yeah.
1211
01:29:56,292 --> 01:29:59,329
Probably when he settles down
and gets married.
1212
01:30:00,964 --> 01:30:05,424
- You think he'll make a good husband?
- And how. Great.
1213
01:30:05,510 --> 01:30:07,668
He'll make a great husband. Sure.
1214
01:30:07,762 --> 01:30:09,505
Listen, this kid is solid.
1215
01:30:09,596 --> 01:30:12,597
He knows all... It isn't gonna be easy. No.
1216
01:30:12,683 --> 01:30:17,345
Marriage and the theatre and two careers.
Problems. It isn't all skittles.
1217
01:30:17,438 --> 01:30:20,223
- It's no bed of...
- Is that why you never got married?
1218
01:30:20,314 --> 01:30:25,225
Who, me? You know, I'm the kind of fella...
1219
01:30:25,318 --> 01:30:28,853
You got the right slant.
You're pretty happy as you are.
1220
01:30:29,323 --> 01:30:32,408
I like to kick around
and have a lot of laughs.
1221
01:30:44,839 --> 01:30:47,756
Lester, I'm very much in love with this girl.
1222
01:30:47,841 --> 01:30:52,633
It's ridiculous, I know,
things being as they are, but there it is.
1223
01:30:54,554 --> 01:30:57,640
Look, Tony,
I don't know what the chances are...
1224
01:30:57,975 --> 01:31:00,928
but wait till we get to New York,
and see how you stand.
1225
01:31:01,019 --> 01:31:03,475
Personally, I think the girl's crazy
about you...
1226
01:31:03,564 --> 01:31:08,060
but what you can see in a beautiful,
young and talented girl is beyond me.
1227
01:31:13,323 --> 01:31:16,110
BALTIMORE
1228

SCENE 4 - "TRIPLETS" - (SUNG BY)

TONY HUNTER - LILY MARTON
JEFF CORDOVA
1230
01:31:30,005 --> 01:31:31,796
Three little unexpected children
1231
01:31:31,882 --> 01:31:33,542
Simultaneously the doctor brought us
1232
01:31:33,633 --> 01:31:36,753
And you can see that
we'll be three forever and A
1233
01:31:36,845 --> 01:31:40,890
E, I, O, You wouldn't know how agonizing
being triple can be
1234
01:31:40,975 --> 01:31:44,673
Each one is individually the victim
of the clinical day
1235
01:31:44,768 --> 01:31:49,478
E, I, O, Every summer we go away
to Baden-Baden-Baden
1236
01:31:49,566 --> 01:31:52,851
Every winter we come back home
to Walla Walla Walla
1237
01:31:54,904 --> 01:31:57,988
We do everything alike
We look alike
1238
01:31:58,073 --> 01:31:59,782
We dress alike
We walk alike
1239
01:31:59,868 --> 01:32:01,610
We talk alike
And what is more
1240
01:32:01,702 --> 01:32:05,201
We hate each other very much
We hate our folks
1241
01:32:05,413 --> 01:32:08,829
We're sick of jokes
on what an art it is to tell us apart
1242
01:32:08,917 --> 01:32:12,417
- If one of us gets the measles
- Another one gets the measles
1243
01:32:12,504 --> 01:32:15,624
Then all of us gets the measles
and mumps and croup
1244
01:32:16,175 --> 01:32:19,589
How I wish I had a gun
A little gun
1245
01:32:19,677 --> 01:32:23,425
It would be fun to shoot the other two
and be only one!
1246
01:32:25,182 --> 01:32:28,717
Mrs. Wifflepoofer loves
to talk to Mrs. Hildendorfer
1247
01:32:28,811 --> 01:32:32,430
of the fatal natal day
she had her silly Willy
1248
01:32:32,524 --> 01:32:35,972
Mrs. Hassencooper loves to talk
to Mrs. Goldenwasser
1249
01:32:36,066 --> 01:32:39,519
of her major operation
when she had her twins
1250
01:32:39,654 --> 01:32:43,069
But when Mother comes along
she silences the others
1251
01:32:43,282 --> 01:32:46,949
She accomplished something
that is very rare in mothers
1252
01:32:47,037 --> 01:32:50,487
MGM has got a Leo
but Mama has got a trio
1253
01:32:50,581 --> 01:32:53,155
She is proud
but says three is a crowd
1254
01:32:54,294 --> 01:32:58,421
We do everything alike
We look alike, we dress alike
1255
01:32:58,506 --> 01:33:01,044
We walk alike, we talk alike
And what is more
1256
01:33:01,134 --> 01:33:03,256
We hate each other very much
1257
01:33:03,427 --> 01:33:05,551
We hate our folks
We're sick of jokes
1258
01:33:05,638 --> 01:33:08,210
On what an art it is to tell us apart
1259
01:33:08,306 --> 01:33:10,014
We eat the same kind of vittles
1260
01:33:10,099 --> 01:33:13,468
We drink the same kind of bottles
We sit in the same kind of highchair
1261
01:33:13,560 --> 01:33:15,304
Highchair, highchair
1262
01:33:30,370 --> 01:33:33,039
Oh, I wish I had a gun, a little gun
1263
01:33:33,122 --> 01:33:37,749
It would be fun to shoot the other two
and be only one
1264
01:33:47,509 --> 01:33:50,511

JEFFREY CORDOVA
LESTER & LILY MARTON
1268
01:34:10,240 --> 01:34:13,407
- It's raining cats and dogs.
- A rainy opening is good luck...
1269
01:34:13,494 --> 01:34:15,817
...when it rains on opening night.
1270
01:34:16,244 --> 01:34:18,284
Good luck, Tony.
1271
01:34:18,372 --> 01:34:22,074
Sweetie, I just want to say that no matter
what happens tonight, it's been...
1272
01:34:22,168 --> 01:34:24,041
I know. It's been that for me, too.
1273
01:34:24,128 --> 01:34:27,414
If this turns out to be a hit,
you'll get sick of the sight of me...
1274
01:34:27,506 --> 01:34:30,341
six nights a week, two matinees.
No escape.
1275
01:34:30,550 --> 01:34:33,467
Course, if it isn't,
you won't have to see me at all.
1276
01:34:35,431 --> 01:34:37,921
Gaby, I've been wanting
to ask you something.
1277
01:34:38,016 --> 01:34:42,429
It's been...
I felt there's been an obstacle between us.
1278
01:34:43,104 --> 01:34:46,603
I wanted to... Is Paul coming tonight?
1279
01:34:47,067 --> 01:34:49,936
- Why, I think so.
- I see.
1280
01:34:50,277 --> 01:34:52,732
What I wanted to ask...
1281
01:34:55,281 --> 01:34:56,859
Perhaps, I better not.
1282
01:34:56,950 --> 01:34:58,942
I wish you wouldn't, Tony.
1283
01:35:00,663 --> 01:35:04,531
- Tony, good luck tonight.
- Good luck, Gaby.

"GIRL HUNT" - A Murder Mystery In Jazz

SHE HAD TO DIE! - GIRL HUNT
1295
01:36:06,015 --> 01:36:09,052
The city was asleep.
The joints were closed.
1296
01:36:09,519 --> 01:36:12,803
The rats, the hoods,
and the killers were in their holes.
1297
01:36:13,521 --> 01:36:15,099
I hate killers.
1298
01:36:15,941 --> 01:36:19,357
My name is Rod Riley. I'm a detective.
1299
01:36:21,613 --> 01:36:24,531
Somewhere in a furnished room...
1300
01:36:24,617 --> 01:36:27,533
some guy was practicing on a horn.
1301
01:36:27,994 --> 01:36:30,034
It was a lonesome sound.
1302
01:36:31,832 --> 01:36:33,907
It crawled on my spine.
1303
01:36:35,626 --> 01:36:39,921
I had just finished a tough case.
I was ready to hit the sack.
1304
01:36:46,721 --> 01:36:50,718
I can smell trouble a mile off,
and this poor kid was in trouble.
1305
01:36:51,308 --> 01:36:52,683
Big trouble.
1306
01:36:52,935 --> 01:36:57,015
She's scared,
scared as a turkey in November.
1307
01:37:18,042 --> 01:37:22,953
There was nothing left of the guy,
nothing at all, except...
1308
01:37:24,339 --> 01:37:29,001
a rag, a bone, and a hank of hair.
1309
01:37:29,928 --> 01:37:33,379
The guy had been trying
to tell me something, but what?
1310
01:37:52,616 --> 01:37:55,366
So that's the way they wanted to play.
All right.
1311
01:37:55,451 --> 01:37:58,655
Somewhere in the city there was a killer
and that was bad.
1312
01:37:58,747 --> 01:38:01,119
Bad for the killer, because I shoot hard.
1313
01:38:02,000 --> 01:38:03,910
And I hate hard.
1314
01:38:14,512 --> 01:38:17,084
I was playing a hunch.
1315
01:39:00,429 --> 01:39:02,635
She came at me in sections.
1316
01:39:03,307 --> 01:39:05,633
More curves than a scenic railway.
1317
01:39:07,978 --> 01:39:11,015
She was bad, she was dangerous.
1318
01:39:11,107 --> 01:39:14,142
I wouldn't trust her any farther
than I could throw her.
1319
01:39:14,234 --> 01:39:17,567
She was selling hard, but I wasn't buying.
1320
01:40:06,324 --> 01:40:09,694
This had to be Mr. Big.
Get him and you get them all.
1321
01:40:38,231 --> 01:40:43,306
There was something about this kid
that made you want to protect her for life.
1322
01:42:00,683 --> 01:42:02,592
That bullet was meant for me.
1323
01:42:06,229 --> 01:42:10,357
Maybe this was a long shot,
but I've seen some funny ones pay off.
1324
01:42:31,838 --> 01:42:34,839
I was beginning to see daylight.
1325
01:42:49,604 --> 01:42:53,435
These mugs were smart,
but they made one mistake.
1326
01:42:55,525 --> 01:42:57,020
They got me mad.
1327
01:43:01,364 --> 01:43:04,816
DEM BONES CAFE
1328
01:45:31,673 --> 01:45:35,540
Suddenly, all the pieces fitted together.
I knew how the crime had been done.
1329
01:45:35,635 --> 01:45:38,671
The high note on the trumpet
had shattered the glass.
1330
01:45:56,864 --> 01:45:59,190
The glass with the nitro-glycerine.
1331
01:46:01,241 --> 01:46:04,444
Now I knew who the killer was,
but it didn't matter anymore.
1332
01:46:04,536 --> 01:46:06,410
Killers have to die.
1333
01:46:43,740 --> 01:46:47,073
Another page in the casebook of Rod Riley
was finished.
1334
01:46:47,410 --> 01:46:50,944
The city was asleep.
The joints were closed.
1335
01:46:51,122 --> 01:46:54,491
The rats, the hoods,
and the killers were in their holes.
1336
01:46:55,835 --> 01:46:58,789
I felt good, but something was missing.
1337
01:47:01,050 --> 01:47:04,549
She was bad, she was dangerous.
1338
01:47:04,637 --> 01:47:07,754
I wouldn't trust her any farther
than I could throw her.
1339
01:47:08,430 --> 01:47:11,301
But she was my kind of woman.
1340
01:47:44,005 --> 01:47:46,627
- Who's that? Somebody come in?
- No one, Mr. Hunter.
1341
01:47:46,717 --> 01:47:50,299
- You sure? Did you look out in the hall?
- Not a soul, Mr. Hunter.
1342
01:47:50,970 --> 01:47:55,052
I can't understand it.
Are you sure this show's a hit?
1343
01:47:55,559 --> 01:47:58,309
A very big hit, Mr. Hunter.
Congratulations.
1344
01:47:58,394 --> 01:48:00,221
It certainly doesn't feel like one.
1345
01:48:00,313 --> 01:48:04,773
I didn't expect them to pull my carriage
through the streets or hurl flowers at me...
1346
01:48:06,611 --> 01:48:08,983
- Hal, come on, boy. Have a drink.
- No, thanks.
1347
01:48:09,072 --> 01:48:12,191
- Got any notes for the cast for tomorrow?
- No.
1348
01:48:12,324 --> 01:48:13,819
- Good night.
- Say, look.
1349
01:48:13,909 --> 01:48:16,992
Doesn't anybody come backstage anymore
on opening nights?
1350
01:48:17,077 --> 01:48:20,826
No. It's considered old-fashioned.
Have a good night's rest, Tony.
1351
01:48:23,876 --> 01:48:25,668
Did Gaby go out with Paul?
1352
01:48:25,753 --> 01:48:28,920
Gaby? I don't know. I guess so.
Good night, Tony.
1353
01:48:32,259 --> 01:48:34,501
Bobby, you know what I'm going to do?
1354
01:48:34,595 --> 01:48:37,003
I'm going out to the biggest nightclub
I can find.
1355
01:48:37,098 --> 01:48:39,469
I'm going to get a glass of champagne
and celebrate.
1356
01:48:39,558 --> 01:48:41,017
Fine idea, sir.
1357
01:48:51,360 --> 01:48:54,609
I'll go my way by myself
1358
01:48:55,697 --> 01:48:58,818
All alone in a crowd
1359
01:49:00,119 --> 01:49:03,120
I'll try to apply myself
1360
01:49:04,331 --> 01:49:07,035
And teach my heart how to sing
1361
01:49:08,709 --> 01:49:12,127
I'll go my way by myself
1362
01:49:12,757 --> 01:49:15,757
Like a bird on the wing
1363
01:49:17,261 --> 01:49:20,262
I'll face the unknown
1364
01:49:21,307 --> 01:49:24,555
I'll build a world of my own
1365
01:49:28,896 --> 01:49:33,474
He's a jolly good fellow
He's a jolly good fellow
1366
01:49:33,734 --> 01:49:36,985
He's a jolly good fellow
1367
01:49:37,237 --> 01:49:41,484
That nobody can deny
That nobody can deny
1368
01:49:41,950 --> 01:49:44,192
That nobody can deny
1369
01:49:44,286 --> 01:49:47,736
For he's a jolly good fellow
1370
01:49:47,830 --> 01:49:50,868
That nobody can deny
1371
01:49:53,920 --> 01:49:56,077
Tony, the whole company got together.
1372
01:49:56,171 --> 01:49:59,421
We all chipped in,
and we bought you... nothing.
1373
01:50:00,216 --> 01:50:02,044
So we have nothing to give you...
1374
01:50:02,136 --> 01:50:05,386
but our gratitude, our admiration...
1375
01:50:06,182 --> 01:50:07,972
and our love.
1376
01:50:08,308 --> 01:50:10,266
The show's a hit, but we all feel...
1377
01:50:10,352 --> 01:50:14,396
no matter what might've happened to it,
it was wonderful knowing you...
1378
01:50:15,607 --> 01:50:17,231
working with you.
1379
01:50:17,525 --> 01:50:20,858
Maybe some of us didn't see eye to eye
with you at the beginning.
1380
01:50:20,945 --> 01:50:23,697
Maybe we thought
we wouldn't work out together...
1381
01:50:24,365 --> 01:50:25,741
but we have.
1382
01:50:26,702 --> 01:50:29,273
Yes, there were obstacles between us...
1383
01:50:31,120 --> 01:50:33,409
but we've kissed them good-bye.
1384
01:50:34,624 --> 01:50:38,917
We've come to love you, Tony.
We belong together.
1385
01:50:40,798 --> 01:50:43,004
The show's going to run a long time.
1386
01:50:44,093 --> 01:50:48,220
As far as I'm concerned,
it's going to run forever.
1387
01:50:58,105 --> 01:51:00,941
- Tony.
- May we say something?
1388
01:51:01,442 --> 01:51:04,606
A show that is really a show
1389
01:51:04,693 --> 01:51:08,277
Sends you out with a kind of a glow
1390
01:51:08,364 --> 01:51:12,148
And you say as you go on your way
1391
01:51:13,285 --> 01:51:15,859
'"That's Entertainment! '"
1392
01:51:16,706 --> 01:51:19,540
A song that is winging along
1393
01:51:19,624 --> 01:51:23,290
or a dance with a touch of romance
1394
01:51:23,378 --> 01:51:26,997
is the art that appeals to the heart
1395
01:51:28,217 --> 01:51:31,136
That's Entertainment!
1396
01:51:31,221 --> 01:51:34,921
Admit we're a hit
and we'll go on from there
1397
01:51:35,016 --> 01:51:38,098
We played a charade
that was lighter than air
1398
01:51:39,268 --> 01:51:42,019
A good old-fashioned affair
1399
01:51:42,146 --> 01:51:45,812
As we sing this finale
we hope it was up your alley
1400
01:51:45,901 --> 01:51:49,233
No death like you get in Macbeth
1401
01:51:49,320 --> 01:51:52,818
No ordeal like the end of Camille
1402
01:51:52,906 --> 01:51:56,821
This good-bye brings a tear to the eye
1403
01:51:56,910 --> 01:52:00,659
The world is a stage
The stage is a world
1404
01:52:00,748 --> 01:52:05,374
of entertainment
1405
01:52:07,963 --> 01:52:09,457
THE END
1406
01:52:09,550 --> 01:52:12,464
