Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:03:12,555 --> 00:03:16,142
Now, Marty, don't get sore.
2
00:03:16,601 --> 00:03:20,563
Who's sore? When Georgie tells me
a customer don't want to pay up his bill...
3
00:03:20,647 --> 00:03:22,148
naturally I want to hear why.
4
00:03:22,232 --> 00:03:25,318
Because I'm tired of being milked
like a cow every week.
5
00:03:25,402 --> 00:03:27,362
Why can't I pay you off once and for all?
6
00:03:27,445 --> 00:03:29,948
Cut that out, Orry.
I run a legitimate laundry.
7
00:03:30,031 --> 00:03:33,243
What laundry says how many tablecloths
and napkins you gotta take?
8
00:03:33,326 --> 00:03:36,746
My laundry. It's our policy.
We want our customers should be clean.
9
00:03:36,830 --> 00:03:40,333
Who needs so many tablecloths?
Who comes into a place like this to eat?
10
00:03:40,417 --> 00:03:43,461
Every customer has a quota.
Otherwise it wouldn't pay me.
11
00:03:43,545 --> 00:03:45,088
Mr. Orry.
12
00:03:51,636 --> 00:03:54,806
- That's all right.
- I saw the whole thing.
13
00:03:55,682 --> 00:03:57,225
It's you again.
14
00:03:57,309 --> 00:03:59,561
She broke my leg. I'm gonna sue this joint.
15
00:03:59,644 --> 00:04:02,647
My dear man, so a girl steps on your toe.
It was an accident.
16
00:04:02,731 --> 00:04:04,649
Accident nothing.
She kicked me on purpose.
17
00:04:04,733 --> 00:04:06,442
- Impossible.
- I can explain everything.
18
00:04:06,525 --> 00:04:08,736
Did you deliberately kick this customer?
19
00:04:08,819 --> 00:04:12,656
- Yes, I did. But I warned him three times.
- You're fired. Now you...
20
00:04:12,740 --> 00:04:14,992
That's not fair.
He's wrong. It wasn't my fault.
21
00:04:15,075 --> 00:04:17,661
He's got 10 cents for a dance.
He can't be wrong.
22
00:04:17,745 --> 00:04:19,955
Cash in your tickets and get out of here.
23
00:04:20,039 --> 00:04:22,666
The next dance is on the house.
Enjoy yourself.
24
00:04:22,750 --> 00:04:26,337
But be careful the way you dance.
Get him a girl.
25
00:04:35,387 --> 00:04:39,683
Marty, you gotta understand my angle.
Now, business hasn't been so...
26
00:04:44,021 --> 00:04:47,316
Not bad, huh? I could fix it up for you.
27
00:04:47,608 --> 00:04:50,861
She's one of those stage-struck ones.
You know the type.
28
00:04:50,945 --> 00:04:52,446
Too bad, kid.
29
00:04:53,322 --> 00:04:57,576
You gonna pay up, Orry, or you want
we should suspend our service?
30
00:05:02,581 --> 00:05:04,917
What did you have to go
and make a fuss for?
31
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,044
Why should I let that big ape paw me?
32
00:05:07,127 --> 00:05:10,506
- It's natural. They all do it.
- Not to me, they don't.
33
00:05:10,589 --> 00:05:13,342
Yeah, I forgot.
You're different. You're going places.
34
00:05:13,425 --> 00:05:14,551
That's right.
35
00:05:14,635 --> 00:05:17,513
Get wise to yourself, duchess.
You're not going anyplace.
36
00:05:17,596 --> 00:05:20,266
Not till you stop hollering, "Hands off. "
37
00:05:20,349 --> 00:05:24,728
I'll stop hollering when I want to.
Not because the customer's always right.
38
00:05:30,818 --> 00:05:32,903
Have you had a good look?
39
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,994
I understand you wanna go on the stage.
Maybe I can help you.
40
00:05:40,077 --> 00:05:42,204
You get out of here,
or I'll call the manager.
41
00:05:42,288 --> 00:05:44,206
This happens to be
a private dressing room.
42
00:05:44,290 --> 00:05:47,835
Private for employees,
which you're not no longer.
43
00:05:48,252 --> 00:05:51,004
You want me to help you go on the stage?
44
00:05:51,087 --> 00:05:55,425
Why don't you buy a ticket and
try your line on one of the employees?
45
00:05:55,508 --> 00:05:58,344
- That is, if you have 10 cents.
- If he has 10 cents?
46
00:05:58,428 --> 00:06:01,347
He's the owner of
the biggest night club laundry in Chicago...
47
00:06:01,431 --> 00:06:04,559
- eight trucks, a payroll of 43.
- I know everybody in the business.
48
00:06:04,642 --> 00:06:06,728
- They're my customers.
- He can introduce you...
49
00:06:06,811 --> 00:06:08,938
- to a dozen guys...
- Shut up.
50
00:06:09,230 --> 00:06:11,733
What're you butting in for? I can't talk?
51
00:06:12,066 --> 00:06:15,028
I'll give you one of my own personal cards.
52
00:06:15,278 --> 00:06:16,654
Why should you?
53
00:06:16,821 --> 00:06:19,741
Why not? I like to help a girl when I can.
54
00:06:20,450 --> 00:06:24,203
And you've got a very excellent
personality, I can see that.
55
00:06:24,287 --> 00:06:28,458
I only need to write something on my card
and they'll put you to work.
56
00:06:28,541 --> 00:06:31,294
I must have left them out in my car.
57
00:06:31,878 --> 00:06:35,381
Meet me outside, and I'll...
Now what's the matter?
58
00:06:36,257 --> 00:06:38,968
I'm not getting into any car with you.
59
00:06:39,344 --> 00:06:40,929
Who said you should?
60
00:06:41,012 --> 00:06:43,765
Who invited you?
I said, "Meet me at the car. "
61
00:06:43,848 --> 00:06:46,559
You dope, he's trying to give you
a break. Take advantage.
62
00:06:46,643 --> 00:06:50,355
Or don't. If you want it, okay. If not, not.
63
00:07:06,829 --> 00:07:09,123
- Come on, Claire. Get out.
- What?
64
00:07:10,124 --> 00:07:12,710
Here, buy yourself a horse and buggy.
Only beat it.
65
00:07:12,794 --> 00:07:16,005
What's the matter?
You invite me out for a pleasant evening.
66
00:07:16,089 --> 00:07:20,009
- I wait who knows how long...
- So I changed my mind. Go on, blow.
67
00:07:21,844 --> 00:07:25,098
Getting awful beat up, that Claire.
Been around too long.
68
00:07:29,060 --> 00:07:30,520
Hi, baby.
69
00:07:36,650 --> 00:07:39,069
- Honey, I'd like to...
- Up an alley.
70
00:07:42,114 --> 00:07:43,532
What's your name?
71
00:07:44,866 --> 00:07:46,285
Ruth Etting.
72
00:07:46,368 --> 00:07:48,996
Take this over to the Circle.
You know where it is?
73
00:07:49,079 --> 00:07:52,416
It's on the North Side.
They'll fix you up. Go on, take it.
74
00:07:54,126 --> 00:07:56,461
Can I give you a lift someplace?
75
00:07:56,962 --> 00:08:00,382
I'm just trying to be agreeable.
Don't do me no favors.
76
00:08:00,465 --> 00:08:03,051
- Do you want the card back?
- Keep it.
77
00:08:03,552 --> 00:08:05,554
Use it in good health.
78
00:08:07,431 --> 00:08:09,975
You wanna know
what's your trouble, girlie?
79
00:08:10,058 --> 00:08:12,769
You ain't got no faith in human nature.
80
00:08:18,775 --> 00:08:20,193
That's all?
81
00:08:20,527 --> 00:08:23,822
She's obligated, ain't she?
So, what're you sitting?
82
00:08:24,197 --> 00:08:28,243
Maybe we can catch up with Claire.
So she's got a lot of mileage on her.
83
00:09:49,407 --> 00:09:50,783
Eddie Fulton.
84
00:10:04,130 --> 00:10:05,423
Thanks, kid.
85
00:10:09,635 --> 00:10:12,722
Only one chorus in the next number, girls.
We're running late.
86
00:10:12,805 --> 00:10:15,933
Hurray for Johnny Alderman,
the people's friend.
87
00:10:17,435 --> 00:10:21,230
Taking in laundry? I got a sackful of socks.
88
00:10:21,689 --> 00:10:24,650
I wish I had. These have to
last till payday.
89
00:10:24,734 --> 00:10:29,238
The point is, can you last till payday?
I get tired just watching you out there.
90
00:10:30,031 --> 00:10:34,035
I must be something to watch.
I'm just not a dancer, that's all.
91
00:10:34,201 --> 00:10:36,370
It seems odd
you'd want a job dancing then.
92
00:10:36,454 --> 00:10:39,916
I didn't. They made a mistake. I'm a singer.
93
00:10:42,209 --> 00:10:47,256
- You had much experience?
- None so far. I'm just starting.
94
00:10:49,717 --> 00:10:52,219
You going about it the right way?
95
00:10:52,303 --> 00:10:55,431
What do you mean? Somebody gives me
a chance to sing, I'll sing.
96
00:10:55,514 --> 00:10:59,727
I've seen a lot of singers fail
because they get off to a bad start.
97
00:10:59,810 --> 00:11:03,564
Right now is when you need coaching,
before you have time to form bad habits.
98
00:11:03,648 --> 00:11:07,275
You need special material, arrangements
to show off what you've got.
99
00:11:07,359 --> 00:11:09,945
That is, if you're serious about it.
100
00:11:10,028 --> 00:11:13,281
I'm serious, all right. I'm also broke.
101
00:11:14,115 --> 00:11:16,284
That'd take a lot of money.
102
00:11:16,910 --> 00:11:20,121
Tell you what.
I might work with you a little, if you like.
103
00:11:20,205 --> 00:11:22,332
Odd hours after the show.
104
00:11:22,415 --> 00:11:24,918
Would you? That would be wonderful.
105
00:11:25,001 --> 00:11:28,046
It would be a pleasure.
One artist to another.
106
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:30,757
I have a piano at my place.
107
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:34,761
It isn't far from here.
We could squeeze in quite a bit of time.
108
00:11:37,264 --> 00:11:40,558
Wouldn't that be
an awful lot of trouble for you?
109
00:11:41,309 --> 00:11:44,145
There's some trouble
a man doesn't mind getting into.
110
00:11:44,229 --> 00:11:47,816
- Get ready, girls. Five minutes.
- Saved by the gong.
111
00:11:48,316 --> 00:11:50,694
Better get back to your piano.
112
00:11:55,574 --> 00:11:57,117
Will you kindly use your head?
113
00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:00,579
That one belongs to the Gimp,
bought and paid for.
114
00:12:01,454 --> 00:12:05,000
- The Gimp?
- So don't make trouble for yourself, or me.
115
00:12:05,083 --> 00:12:07,252
I got a big investment in this place.
116
00:12:07,335 --> 00:12:10,589
It's funny. I would have sworn
she hasn't been around much.
117
00:12:10,672 --> 00:12:14,426
Maybe she hasn't.
What she knows, they learn in the cradle.
118
00:12:14,718 --> 00:12:16,803
Wait a minute, Frobisher.
119
00:12:16,886 --> 00:12:20,056
- Etling, I'm here.
- Hello, Mr. Snyder.
120
00:12:20,140 --> 00:12:24,436
I got my own laundry, eight trucks,
and she does her own washing. Cute, huh?
121
00:12:24,519 --> 00:12:27,772
- They treating you right, kid?
- They're wonderful to me.
122
00:12:27,856 --> 00:12:30,483
Okay, Frobisher, thanks. Blow.
123
00:12:31,401 --> 00:12:33,820
I delivered, didn't I? Tell the truth.
124
00:12:33,945 --> 00:12:36,364
You thought
I was giving you the business, right?
125
00:12:36,448 --> 00:12:37,866
I've got to go.
126
00:12:37,949 --> 00:12:40,660
Frobisher, the kid is staying
out of this one.
127
00:12:40,744 --> 00:12:43,204
Sure, why not?
128
00:12:45,206 --> 00:12:47,000
No, I better go.
129
00:12:47,292 --> 00:12:49,377
- No...
- He won't mind.
130
00:12:52,212 --> 00:12:55,215
There is something I want to ask you.
You see, I'm dancing.
131
00:12:55,299 --> 00:12:59,094
That's great.
Tell me, have you ever been to Florida?
132
00:12:59,178 --> 00:13:01,347
No, I haven't. I hate to bother you...
133
00:13:01,430 --> 00:13:05,267
You'll be crazy about it. Take it from me.
All the girls are nuts about Miami.
134
00:13:05,351 --> 00:13:07,353
Mr. Frobisher put me in the chorus...
135
00:13:07,436 --> 00:13:09,647
He won't fire you, don't worry.
He wouldn't dare.
136
00:13:09,730 --> 00:13:11,899
It's the worst weather here, freezing cold.
137
00:13:11,982 --> 00:13:14,318
In Miami, you go swimming
in the ocean every day.
138
00:13:14,401 --> 00:13:16,237
I don't want to dance, I want to sing.
139
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:19,865
Singing, dancing, what's the difference?
You're on the stage, ain't you?
140
00:13:19,949 --> 00:13:23,452
- In here, Georgie.
- All set, Marty. Got the train tickets.
141
00:13:23,535 --> 00:13:26,413
How do you like that?
We're leaving Friday night.
142
00:13:26,789 --> 00:13:30,209
- Leaving for where?
- For where? For Florida.
143
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,963
Little girl, you gotta start
listening to me.
144
00:13:34,046 --> 00:13:36,048
But I don't want to go to Florida.
145
00:13:36,131 --> 00:13:38,801
Why not?
How do you know you won't like it?
146
00:13:38,884 --> 00:13:41,971
You've never been there.
You said so yourself. You'll love it.
147
00:13:42,054 --> 00:13:43,847
What's not to like?
148
00:13:47,017 --> 00:13:48,686
She thinks it's a line.
149
00:13:48,769 --> 00:13:52,106
She thinks I say Miami,
I mean Atlantic City.
150
00:13:52,648 --> 00:13:55,985
- Georgie, show her the tickets.
- Here are the tickets.
151
00:13:56,068 --> 00:13:58,445
Frobisher will keep your job for you.
Don't worry.
152
00:13:58,529 --> 00:14:00,656
Mr. Snyder, I'm not going.
153
00:14:03,117 --> 00:14:05,202
Georgie, get out of here.
154
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:07,580
Beat it.
155
00:14:09,248 --> 00:14:13,711
- Look here, you stupid little broad...
- Don't you talk to me like that.
156
00:14:13,794 --> 00:14:17,381
I'll talk to you any way I like.
You know who I am?
157
00:14:17,464 --> 00:14:19,592
You think I let dames
get away with anything?
158
00:14:19,675 --> 00:14:23,887
I'm not trying to get away with anything.
I didn't ask you for one thing.
159
00:14:24,179 --> 00:14:27,766
You didn't ask but you wanted.
I did my share, what about you?
160
00:14:27,850 --> 00:14:30,436
Who do you think you are? You're nothing.
161
00:14:30,519 --> 00:14:34,481
Get funny with me, and I'll throw you
back to that crummy dance joint.
162
00:14:34,565 --> 00:14:37,109
You won't have to. I'll walk back.
163
00:14:41,195 --> 00:14:43,156
What are you doing?
164
00:14:43,239 --> 00:14:46,576
I'm leaving.
All I wanted was a chance to sing.
165
00:14:46,659 --> 00:14:48,036
And I'll get it.
166
00:14:49,495 --> 00:14:53,124
You don't have to do a thing.
I'll get it for myself.
167
00:15:06,179 --> 00:15:08,348
Hey, Etling.
168
00:15:09,098 --> 00:15:10,433
What's her name?
169
00:15:10,558 --> 00:15:14,145
Ruth. Ruthie, come on out.
170
00:15:14,812 --> 00:15:18,107
What did I say that was so terrible?
What crime did I commit?
171
00:15:18,191 --> 00:15:21,861
- Come on like a good girl.
- Want me to drag her out, Marty?
172
00:15:23,738 --> 00:15:25,531
Get out of here.
173
00:15:32,580 --> 00:15:33,581
- Deal me in.
- Hurry up.
174
00:15:34,249 --> 00:15:35,959
That's all we wait for Etting.
175
00:15:36,042 --> 00:15:38,586
All right, kids, rehearsal. Let's go.
176
00:15:39,837 --> 00:15:43,341
- Gay, you take Etting's place.
- I'm a specialty.
177
00:16:00,650 --> 00:16:04,237
- Mr. Snyder wants to see you right away.
- I'm working. Sorry.
178
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:08,658
Listen, I asked you nice, didn't I?
You want me to ask you not nice?
179
00:16:09,784 --> 00:16:12,328
Sure. Might as well have both versions.
180
00:16:12,412 --> 00:16:13,663
Johnny.
181
00:16:18,793 --> 00:16:21,838
You think the Gimp found out
you talked to the girl?
182
00:16:21,921 --> 00:16:26,592
Maybe. If he has, you think I should crawl
into the laundry and apologize?
183
00:16:27,426 --> 00:16:31,430
Well, I would.
But I'm an old man and I want to live.
184
00:16:31,972 --> 00:16:35,642
What else have I got? You better go.
185
00:16:38,020 --> 00:16:41,064
But, Mr. Frobisher,
we can't rehearse without music.
186
00:16:41,148 --> 00:16:43,400
- So hum to them.
- Hum?
187
00:16:43,483 --> 00:16:46,653
All right, girls, line up. Come on, line up.
188
00:16:46,737 --> 00:16:49,114
One, two, three, four.
189
00:16:57,247 --> 00:16:59,499
You notice how the help all wear gloves?
190
00:16:59,583 --> 00:17:02,711
Once the wash is washed,
it ain't touched by a human hand.
191
00:17:02,794 --> 00:17:07,174
Maybe I'm crazy, but I like things clean.
Sit down, make yourself comfortable.
192
00:17:08,342 --> 00:17:11,094
- Marty, the piano player.
- Oh, yeah.
193
00:17:11,553 --> 00:17:13,972
How much you get an hour to coach?
194
00:17:14,056 --> 00:17:16,391
- Coach?
- Miss Etling.
195
00:17:16,642 --> 00:17:18,518
She wants to sing.
196
00:17:19,061 --> 00:17:22,439
She thinks she shouldn't make bad habits
at the beginning.
197
00:17:22,522 --> 00:17:25,734
She should have arrangements,
you know what I mean?
198
00:17:26,068 --> 00:17:28,695
- What do you get by the hour?
- $5.
199
00:17:29,112 --> 00:17:32,991
I'll give you $10.
Anybody hangs around me, they make.
200
00:17:34,868 --> 00:17:36,662
Well, can she sing?
201
00:17:37,162 --> 00:17:39,790
What is she, a dummy? Anybody can sing.
202
00:17:39,873 --> 00:17:43,293
Put them on a stage, tell the public
they're singers. They're singers.
203
00:17:43,377 --> 00:17:45,879
What does the public know?
You want the job?
204
00:17:45,963 --> 00:17:49,007
- At $10 an hour? Sure.
- Right. You got yourself a deal.
205
00:17:49,091 --> 00:17:52,469
- Georgie will take you back.
- When would you like to start?
206
00:17:52,552 --> 00:17:55,138
You can fix it up between you later.
207
00:17:59,643 --> 00:18:03,272
Don't take it too serious, the lessons.
A couple, to make her feel good.
208
00:18:03,355 --> 00:18:07,359
I'll be taking her to Florida any day now.
You know what I mean.
209
00:18:16,284 --> 00:18:18,619
Sorry I took so long changing.
210
00:18:18,744 --> 00:18:23,457
I'm getting paid by the hour.
By the way, thanks for cutting me in.
211
00:18:23,708 --> 00:18:25,751
I got the idea from you.
212
00:18:26,627 --> 00:18:28,838
But I would've done it for nothing.
213
00:18:30,298 --> 00:18:33,175
I thought it was better if you got paid.
214
00:18:34,594 --> 00:18:38,055
- Let's get started and see what we got.
- All right.
215
00:18:38,514 --> 00:18:40,182
You know this?
216
00:18:42,810 --> 00:18:44,103
Yes.
217
00:20:44,180 --> 00:20:45,599
Yes, ma'am.
218
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,143
Am I any good?
219
00:20:49,811 --> 00:20:52,689
Am I good enough to get somewhere?
220
00:20:53,189 --> 00:20:56,985
Will you tell that to Mr. Snyder, Johnny?
I need someone like him.
221
00:20:57,068 --> 00:20:58,862
You know, sort of a manager.
222
00:20:58,945 --> 00:21:02,782
- You expect him to be your manager?
- Why not? He has a lot of connections.
223
00:21:02,866 --> 00:21:04,743
- You're kidding, aren't you?
- No.
224
00:21:04,826 --> 00:21:08,204
You were quick enough to spot
a routine friendly pass when I made it.
225
00:21:08,288 --> 00:21:11,249
You must have a vague idea
of what he wants.
226
00:21:11,458 --> 00:21:14,169
Do you know
what his exact plans for you are?
227
00:21:14,252 --> 00:21:17,631
He's taking you to Florida with him.
He told me so himself.
228
00:21:19,341 --> 00:21:21,134
He told me that, too.
229
00:21:22,385 --> 00:21:24,221
But I'm not packing.
230
00:21:31,436 --> 00:21:35,482
- I had a date. I forgot.
- I wouldn't tell him that. Think fast, kid.
231
00:21:37,108 --> 00:21:39,318
Just out of plain, simple curiosity...
232
00:21:39,401 --> 00:21:42,446
I'd like to know why you gave me
a standup. You got my message.
233
00:21:42,529 --> 00:21:43,739
I told her myself, Marty.
234
00:21:43,822 --> 00:21:47,201
Let me hear the fancy story
you're gonna give me. Go on, I dare you.
235
00:21:47,284 --> 00:21:50,246
No story, Mr. Snyder. I just forgot.
236
00:21:52,081 --> 00:21:53,540
You forgot?
237
00:21:53,624 --> 00:21:57,211
I don't know how I could have,
but I did. And I'm very sorry.
238
00:21:57,294 --> 00:21:59,755
- Will you forgive me?
- Naturally, I thought...
239
00:21:59,838 --> 00:22:01,215
I didn't know what to think.
240
00:22:01,298 --> 00:22:05,010
You certainly didn't think
I'd do a thing like that to you?
241
00:22:07,763 --> 00:22:11,058
That's all right, dear.
Everybody can make a mistake.
242
00:22:11,141 --> 00:22:14,311
- How's she doing?
- Not bad, not bad at all.
243
00:22:14,395 --> 00:22:16,480
In fact, she's quite a performer.
244
00:22:16,564 --> 00:22:18,232
Did you hear that, Mr. Snyder?
245
00:22:18,315 --> 00:22:21,902
Now will you talk to Mr. Frobisher
and ask if I can have a little song?
246
00:22:21,986 --> 00:22:25,656
I'll talk to him when I get good and ready.
How do you like that?
247
00:22:25,739 --> 00:22:28,659
You had one lesson.
Who says it's time for a swelled head?
248
00:22:28,742 --> 00:22:30,286
You think you can fool the public?
249
00:22:30,369 --> 00:22:33,122
You want to get up before people
and embarrass me?
250
00:22:35,916 --> 00:22:39,086
I'm sorry.
It's just been on my mind, you know.
251
00:22:39,545 --> 00:22:42,339
I guess this is my night
for making mistakes, isn't it?
252
00:22:42,423 --> 00:22:45,175
It's because you're tired.
You're not thinking good.
253
00:22:45,259 --> 00:22:47,303
You got no business
keeping her up so late.
254
00:22:47,386 --> 00:22:50,264
Come on, I'll take you home.
You go right to bed.
255
00:22:51,390 --> 00:22:52,766
Thank you.
256
00:23:23,589 --> 00:23:25,089
Eddie Fulton.
257
00:23:26,090 --> 00:23:27,467
- Where's Fulton?
- I don't know.
258
00:23:27,550 --> 00:23:29,219
- Fulton, you're on.
- Great.
259
00:23:29,302 --> 00:23:31,971
- What'd I tell you? A knockout.
- Yeah, you told me.
260
00:23:33,223 --> 00:23:34,933
- Fulton, hurry up.
- You're on.
261
00:23:35,016 --> 00:23:37,268
- I'm sorry.
- If it's hard for you to get here...
262
00:23:37,352 --> 00:23:40,021
why not quit and spend all your time
at the crap table?
263
00:23:40,104 --> 00:23:41,814
And don't forget, smile.
264
00:23:44,234 --> 00:23:45,944
You got what you wanted, huh?
265
00:23:47,195 --> 00:23:49,113
What's the matter? You don't look happy.
266
00:23:49,197 --> 00:23:51,491
You wanted a chance to sing,
and I got you that.
267
00:23:51,574 --> 00:23:53,034
But I'm on and off in a second.
268
00:23:53,117 --> 00:23:56,162
- What did you expect?
- Well, it's not a real number.
269
00:23:57,830 --> 00:23:59,999
I was just thinking of something.
270
00:24:03,711 --> 00:24:06,714
Suppose Fulton missed a performance.
If I could substitute...
271
00:24:06,798 --> 00:24:10,260
Fulton? He's a headliner,
you're a newcomer. You just started.
272
00:24:10,343 --> 00:24:13,263
Well, somebody
would have to take his place.
273
00:24:14,097 --> 00:24:16,933
How do you like that.
Here I'm suspecting she wants me...
274
00:24:17,016 --> 00:24:19,269
to work Frobisher for an extra routine,
but no.
275
00:24:19,352 --> 00:24:21,646
All the time,
she wants the whole business.
276
00:24:21,729 --> 00:24:24,232
What do you want me to do?
Knock him off?
277
00:24:25,525 --> 00:24:29,070
Of course not, Mr. Snyder.
But if he missed a show...
278
00:24:29,153 --> 00:24:31,322
Why should he?
Answer me that, Miss Smart.
279
00:24:31,406 --> 00:24:35,577
It could happen, couldn't it?
It almost happened tonight, didn't it?
280
00:24:37,537 --> 00:24:40,790
The nerve you've got. The gall.
281
00:24:41,374 --> 00:24:45,545
Look, would you consider coming into
the laundry business with me?
282
00:24:45,628 --> 00:24:47,797
We'll be millionaires in no time.
283
00:24:51,384 --> 00:24:54,596
Marty, I tell you, no. You've got a laundry.
284
00:24:54,679 --> 00:24:58,433
I'm a customer, fine.
You asked me to give her a job.
285
00:24:58,516 --> 00:25:01,561
I give her a job, fine. But there's a limit.
286
00:25:01,936 --> 00:25:04,856
I'm not putting her on tonight
or any other night.
287
00:25:05,064 --> 00:25:07,525
But you're stuck. You ain't got Fulton.
288
00:25:07,609 --> 00:25:10,152
Why should he walk out on me?
289
00:25:10,569 --> 00:25:13,530
He got deep in gambling.
They told him to get it up quick...
290
00:25:13,614 --> 00:25:15,365
and the poor slob didn't have it.
291
00:25:15,449 --> 00:25:19,202
How come the poor slob has it
to go to Florida?
292
00:25:19,494 --> 00:25:22,748
What're you asking me?
Frobisher, she'll be a sensation.
293
00:25:22,831 --> 00:25:25,876
To who? Whoever heard of her?
Who'll come to see her?
294
00:25:25,959 --> 00:25:27,544
You want to close my club?
295
00:25:27,628 --> 00:25:30,005
Are you kidding?
You know the contacts I got.
296
00:25:30,088 --> 00:25:33,383
Personalities, people who'll be a credit
to the finest nightclubs.
297
00:25:33,467 --> 00:25:36,887
They'll spend, they'll clap,
you'll make a fortune.
298
00:25:38,305 --> 00:25:42,100
On the other hand, Frobisher,
maybe I got you all wrong.
299
00:25:43,101 --> 00:25:46,104
Maybe you don't wanna oblige
a close personal pal.
300
00:25:53,070 --> 00:25:54,571
Come in.
301
00:25:56,031 --> 00:25:57,950
- How do I look?
- Top of the world.
302
00:25:58,033 --> 00:26:01,078
Here it is, Johnny,
the chance I've been waiting for.
303
00:26:01,161 --> 00:26:03,830
But you made sure
it wasn't too long a wait.
304
00:26:03,997 --> 00:26:05,999
You bet I did. I'm in a hurry.
305
00:26:06,083 --> 00:26:08,961
And I was right, wasn't I?
Told you he'd help me.
306
00:26:09,419 --> 00:26:13,632
Ruth, get rid of him now.
It's not going to be worth it.
307
00:26:13,715 --> 00:26:17,803
I don't know what you're talking about.
Why shouldn't I have a manager?
308
00:26:17,886 --> 00:26:21,306
A manager? Don't lie to yourself.
If you're going ahead with this...
309
00:26:21,390 --> 00:26:24,768
at least don't lie to yourself.
But don't go ahead with it.
310
00:26:24,851 --> 00:26:26,353
You don't have to.
311
00:26:26,770 --> 00:26:30,315
Yes, I do. I've tried it without help.
312
00:26:30,649 --> 00:26:34,611
I didn't mind it being hard, Johnny.
I just minded that it didn't work.
313
00:26:34,695 --> 00:26:37,322
Then let me help you.
I'll get you to the right people.
314
00:26:37,406 --> 00:26:39,491
I'll work with you and they'll want you.
315
00:26:39,575 --> 00:26:42,744
They won't have to be strong-armed,
blackmailed, or shoved around.
316
00:26:42,828 --> 00:26:46,707
They'll want you because you're good.
Try it, Ruth. Try it that way.
317
00:26:47,207 --> 00:26:49,585
Johnny, so many guys
have wanted to help me.
318
00:26:49,668 --> 00:26:52,504
And they've all been on the make,
just like him.
319
00:26:54,131 --> 00:26:57,758
- I suppose you're the one who's different?
- That's right.
320
00:26:59,677 --> 00:27:02,930
And I mean it. But get yourself free, Ruth.
321
00:27:03,139 --> 00:27:06,183
But I am free. I've made no promises.
322
00:27:06,267 --> 00:27:07,768
- I'm as free as you are.
- Are you?
323
00:27:07,852 --> 00:27:09,562
- Yes.
- Prove it.
324
00:27:10,605 --> 00:27:14,191
Let's meet tonight after the show.
Have a cup of coffee together.
325
00:27:14,275 --> 00:27:18,195
Just two free people
getting together over a cup of coffee.
326
00:27:18,362 --> 00:27:19,739
Why not?
327
00:27:20,698 --> 00:27:22,074
All right.
328
00:27:22,992 --> 00:27:25,286
That's us. It will be great.
329
00:27:27,288 --> 00:27:29,373
- I'm ready.
- Come on, it's time.
330
00:27:29,540 --> 00:27:32,543
Get out there, do your stuff.
Don't make me out a horse's neck.
331
00:27:32,627 --> 00:27:34,879
I got the place packed with biggies.
332
00:27:37,715 --> 00:27:38,883
Get a load of that.
333
00:27:41,302 --> 00:27:44,805
I thought it up myself.
Come on, I'm a nervous wreck.
334
00:27:46,265 --> 00:27:47,391
Excuse me.
335
00:32:02,895 --> 00:32:06,774
- Look at the flowers.
- Just a little token of the way I feel.
336
00:32:07,441 --> 00:32:11,194
Oh, Marty. Thank you. They're lovely.
337
00:32:11,319 --> 00:32:14,113
Don't thank me, hug me,
and throw me out so quick.
338
00:32:14,197 --> 00:32:17,492
- I have to get dressed.
- Make it fast. We gotta celebrate.
339
00:32:17,575 --> 00:32:18,952
- Marty.
- What?
340
00:32:19,035 --> 00:32:21,996
I'm so tired and excited,
I don't think I can go out tonight.
341
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:23,623
Sure you can. It's all set up.
342
00:32:23,706 --> 00:32:25,833
A big fancy blowout
over at Al Gaxley's place.
343
00:32:25,917 --> 00:32:28,002
That's way out in Bay Cliff, in the country.
344
00:32:28,086 --> 00:32:32,257
Sort of a house party for the weekend.
Hurry up. We gotta leave right away.
345
00:32:33,716 --> 00:32:36,511
Look, why don't you go ahead
without me?
346
00:32:37,136 --> 00:32:38,221
No.
347
00:32:39,180 --> 00:32:40,807
It's just that I'm so tired.
348
00:32:40,890 --> 00:32:43,685
No. Not this time, Ruthie.
349
00:32:48,398 --> 00:32:50,149
That's all over.
350
00:32:52,026 --> 00:32:53,611
What're you talking about?
351
00:32:53,695 --> 00:32:56,906
About the way you brush me off.
The way you stall me.
352
00:32:56,990 --> 00:32:59,492
And don't think
I didn't feel ridiculous at times.
353
00:32:59,576 --> 00:33:01,035
In front of Georgie, even.
354
00:33:01,119 --> 00:33:03,037
- Just because...
- I didn't get sore.
355
00:33:03,121 --> 00:33:07,208
Tell the truth. Did I ever get sore?
Even about not going to Florida?
356
00:33:07,292 --> 00:33:09,460
You wanted to see how far you could get.
357
00:33:09,544 --> 00:33:13,756
Fine. I don't blame you, I give you credit.
But that's all.
358
00:33:17,218 --> 00:33:20,763
I understand.
You got me a break and now...
359
00:33:23,766 --> 00:33:25,518
All right.
360
00:33:26,769 --> 00:33:28,354
I'll go with you.
361
00:33:29,230 --> 00:33:31,149
Now you're talking, baby.
362
00:33:31,316 --> 00:33:33,943
- And then you'll never see me again.
- Why?
363
00:33:34,027 --> 00:33:35,486
Because that makes me a tramp...
364
00:33:35,570 --> 00:33:37,864
and I'm not a tramp,
no matter what you think.
365
00:33:37,947 --> 00:33:42,577
Ruthie, you're wrong.
Listen, I'll be honest with you.
366
00:33:42,660 --> 00:33:45,788
When we first started up together,
I figured, you know...
367
00:33:45,872 --> 00:33:48,791
a pickup, why not? Didn't mean nothing.
368
00:33:49,125 --> 00:33:53,463
But lately a change come over me,
and I wanna do things for you. I'm anxious.
369
00:33:53,963 --> 00:33:55,882
That's what I was hoping for.
370
00:33:55,964 --> 00:33:59,593
That you would get to care about
what happened to me. But you don't.
371
00:33:59,676 --> 00:34:03,305
What do you mean, I don't?
I'll show you you're out of your head.
372
00:34:03,597 --> 00:34:06,892
You know that big fancy joint
where Helen Terral is singing?
373
00:34:06,975 --> 00:34:08,060
The Oval Room?
374
00:34:08,143 --> 00:34:10,979
Who do you think I had here tonight
taking a gander at you?
375
00:34:11,063 --> 00:34:15,108
Just the owner, that's all.
Yeah, a close personal pal.
376
00:34:15,192 --> 00:34:17,194
We're getting together Monday
to chew it over.
377
00:34:17,277 --> 00:34:20,572
Now, does that sound like
I think you're a... What you said?
378
00:34:20,656 --> 00:34:23,033
You got no idea the plans I've got.
379
00:34:25,327 --> 00:34:28,038
If I go to Al Gaxley's for the weekend.
380
00:34:28,121 --> 00:34:30,832
Well, what do you want of me? I'm human.
381
00:34:35,212 --> 00:34:36,630
I'm stuck on you.
382
00:34:43,428 --> 00:34:44,930
Thank you, Marty.
383
00:34:46,807 --> 00:34:49,059
Now let me be honest with you, too.
384
00:34:49,393 --> 00:34:52,563
In the time I've known you,
you've become more important to me...
385
00:34:52,646 --> 00:34:55,190
than anyone else. And I like you.
386
00:34:58,151 --> 00:35:00,153
But I'm not stuck on you.
387
00:35:01,446 --> 00:35:05,033
Maybe it's because getting someplace
is such a big thing to me.
388
00:35:05,617 --> 00:35:10,080
It seems as if I don't have room
for anything else. Not yet, anyway.
389
00:35:11,832 --> 00:35:13,542
Can you understand that?
390
00:35:13,792 --> 00:35:16,128
Yeah, sure, Ruthie...
391
00:35:17,462 --> 00:35:18,797
but when?
392
00:35:24,386 --> 00:35:25,888
I don't know.
393
00:35:30,517 --> 00:35:35,355
If you still want me to go with you,
give me a minute and I'll get dressed.
394
00:35:38,483 --> 00:35:42,236
Take yourself the minute.
We'll go out and get a bite to eat.
395
00:35:47,617 --> 00:35:49,535
You'll never be sorry.
396
00:35:50,119 --> 00:35:53,289
What do you mean? I'm sorry already.
397
00:35:55,291 --> 00:35:57,919
I'll wait for you out in the car.
Only hurry up.
398
00:35:58,002 --> 00:36:01,631
What a day I've had.
My feet are killing me.
399
00:36:05,009 --> 00:36:07,470
We're going downtown
to get a bite to eat.
400
00:36:07,553 --> 00:36:10,640
Call the restaurant and tell them
to get the champagne ready.
401
00:36:10,723 --> 00:36:12,516
She don't wanna go away with you?
402
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:15,102
I don't want her to go!
How do you like that?
403
00:36:15,186 --> 00:36:18,731
Bay Cliff ain't the right kind of a place
for a girl like her.
404
00:36:24,987 --> 00:36:27,782
- She was great tonight, huh? A knockout.
- Great.
405
00:36:27,865 --> 00:36:30,201
Here. A little extra.
406
00:36:30,618 --> 00:36:33,663
You backed her up good. Go on, take it.
407
00:36:34,956 --> 00:36:37,917
Get yourself a dame.
Have a big time on me.
408
00:36:43,881 --> 00:36:46,259
Table for three for Mr. Snyder.
409
00:36:47,009 --> 00:36:48,594
And champagne.
410
00:36:49,095 --> 00:36:51,847
Yeah, that's right, the works. Right.
411
00:37:03,734 --> 00:37:05,403
Come on, Ruthie.
412
00:37:08,739 --> 00:37:10,533
Good night, Johnny.
413
00:38:26,650 --> 00:38:30,987
This is on the level. This is legit.
I don't have to stack the joint no more.
414
00:40:45,204 --> 00:40:47,581
Marty, sit for five minutes.
415
00:40:47,665 --> 00:40:50,543
I gotta talk to you about things,
but I don't get a chance.
416
00:40:50,626 --> 00:40:53,420
You're so busy running all the time.
The laundry.
417
00:40:53,504 --> 00:40:56,090
You take care of it, Georgie.
I got confidence in you.
418
00:40:56,173 --> 00:40:59,342
I got to get back.
She'll wonder I'm not there.
419
00:41:11,729 --> 00:41:16,609
Hi. I want you to meet Mr. Loomis
of the Roger Black Agency in New York.
420
00:41:16,693 --> 00:41:18,945
- This is Mr. Snyder.
- How do you do, Mr. Snyder?
421
00:41:19,028 --> 00:41:21,114
Mr. Loomis caught the show and liked it.
422
00:41:21,197 --> 00:41:23,283
In fact,
he has a booking for me in New York.
423
00:41:23,366 --> 00:41:24,701
A club called The Black Hat.
424
00:41:24,784 --> 00:41:28,121
- I hear it stinks.
- It's a beginning, Mr. Snyder.
425
00:41:28,204 --> 00:41:30,081
We're not starting at the beginning.
426
00:41:30,164 --> 00:41:33,585
Maybe I'm out of line and you're
handling your own bookings now?
427
00:41:33,668 --> 00:41:36,629
You got it straight?
You want to talk business, talk to me.
428
00:41:36,713 --> 00:41:38,047
- All right.
- Here's my card.
429
00:41:38,131 --> 00:41:41,676
Call me up, make an appointment.
If I have time, I'll see you.
430
00:41:42,093 --> 00:41:46,139
Thank you very much, Mr. Snyder.
It was nice seeing you, Miss Etting.
431
00:41:47,849 --> 00:41:50,602
- Thank you for coming back.
- It was a pleasure.
432
00:41:53,104 --> 00:41:55,732
Why do you have to act like that?
All that man wanted...
433
00:41:55,815 --> 00:41:57,066
Shut up.
434
00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:03,865
Who got you this far? You?
Look at me when I'm talking to you.
435
00:42:04,574 --> 00:42:07,285
I knock myself out for you,
show me a little respect.
436
00:42:07,368 --> 00:42:08,995
At least do that much.
437
00:42:11,789 --> 00:42:14,334
You know that Black Hat
he's booking you in so fast?
438
00:42:14,417 --> 00:42:16,711
It's a dump.
You even know where it's located?
439
00:42:16,794 --> 00:42:19,297
So far uptown,
it's practically in the Bronx.
440
00:42:19,380 --> 00:42:21,549
You know who goes in there? Dogs.
441
00:42:21,925 --> 00:42:25,136
If you want to sing for dogs, go ahead.
But not with me.
442
00:42:26,471 --> 00:42:28,056
How was I to know that?
443
00:42:28,139 --> 00:42:30,808
All I heard was New York,
and naturally I was excited.
444
00:42:30,892 --> 00:42:33,144
New York's crawling with
dames who can sing.
445
00:42:33,228 --> 00:42:34,979
You know when you're going
to New York?
446
00:42:35,063 --> 00:42:37,148
After I make their tongues
hang out for you.
447
00:42:37,232 --> 00:42:41,027
I've got plans so big, a hick like you
wouldn't even understand them.
448
00:42:41,110 --> 00:42:42,736
What plans?
449
00:42:46,365 --> 00:42:48,700
Look whose tongue is hanging out now.
450
00:42:49,076 --> 00:42:52,329
Never you mind what plans.
All you gotta do is sing.
451
00:42:52,788 --> 00:42:54,498
The real work, I'll do.
452
00:42:59,294 --> 00:43:01,755
Come on, hurry up, get dressed.
453
00:43:04,466 --> 00:43:06,426
Who was the guy who came out?
454
00:43:06,510 --> 00:43:08,220
Chiselers. Leeches.
455
00:43:08,554 --> 00:43:11,181
You got something good,
everybody wants a piece.
456
00:43:14,810 --> 00:43:18,272
Listen, Georgie,
I wanna put her on the radio.
457
00:43:19,648 --> 00:43:21,942
Find out who the top man is
at every station.
458
00:43:22,025 --> 00:43:24,653
Then ask around,
which one we can put the squeeze on.
459
00:43:26,321 --> 00:43:30,158
Wouldn't it be easier just to ask them
to come and listen to her?
460
00:43:30,242 --> 00:43:32,828
Bet you anything they'd give her a job.
461
00:43:32,911 --> 00:43:36,206
- Think so?
- Why not? She sings real good.
462
00:43:38,375 --> 00:43:40,669
At that you might be right.
463
00:43:40,794 --> 00:43:44,047
But if you ain't, and it don't work,
I'll guarantee you one thing:
464
00:43:44,131 --> 00:43:45,841
I'll brain you.
465
00:43:47,801 --> 00:43:50,762
Hey, you. You know anything about radio?
466
00:43:50,846 --> 00:43:54,474
- Yes, a little.
- Good. We're branching out.
467
00:44:02,399 --> 00:44:04,443
- Hi, Johnny. Come in.
- Hello.
468
00:44:06,570 --> 00:44:10,616
He can't make it. I think
he had something to do about his laundry.
469
00:44:10,699 --> 00:44:13,994
Anyway, he said for us
to go ahead and rehearse.
470
00:44:17,122 --> 00:44:19,458
- Pretty fancy, isn't it?
- Yeah.
471
00:44:20,042 --> 00:44:23,086
Marty had it decorated for me
as a birthday present.
472
00:44:23,378 --> 00:44:26,840
It's the first real apartment
I've ever had. I just love it.
473
00:44:27,674 --> 00:44:29,884
Can I get you a drink or something?
474
00:44:32,803 --> 00:44:34,889
Cup of coffee, maybe?
475
00:44:36,682 --> 00:44:38,809
Not now, thank you.
476
00:44:41,145 --> 00:44:42,897
Did you go to the radio station today?
477
00:44:42,980 --> 00:44:46,817
Yes. I spent the morning with Brelston
outlining the first program.
478
00:44:46,943 --> 00:44:49,028
Johnny, I still can't believe it.
479
00:44:49,111 --> 00:44:52,323
My own radio program.
The best possible time on the air.
480
00:44:53,407 --> 00:44:57,203
And how about you, maestro?
Conducting your own orchestra.
481
00:44:58,329 --> 00:45:00,581
Very impressive, both of us.
482
00:45:08,047 --> 00:45:10,758
What happened
when that agent came to see you?
483
00:45:10,883 --> 00:45:12,635
He had a booking for me in New York.
484
00:45:12,718 --> 00:45:15,429
That's what I thought.
Why didn't you take it?
485
00:45:15,555 --> 00:45:17,598
Because I'm not ready for it yet.
486
00:45:17,682 --> 00:45:20,059
And Marty'll tell you when you're ready?
487
00:45:20,142 --> 00:45:23,396
- He's made no mistakes yet.
- Loomis doesn't make mistakes, either.
488
00:45:23,479 --> 00:45:25,231
He's the best agent in the business.
489
00:45:25,314 --> 00:45:27,483
He works for you,
you pay him a commission...
490
00:45:27,567 --> 00:45:29,360
and you don't owe him anything.
491
00:45:29,443 --> 00:45:31,988
- Why don't you let him in?
- Because I don't need him.
492
00:45:32,071 --> 00:45:36,033
- Did Marty tell you, you don't need him?
- I don't need him because I have Marty.
493
00:45:36,117 --> 00:45:38,744
You'll have Marty for a long time, honey.
494
00:45:38,828 --> 00:45:42,456
- He'll be with you every step of the way.
- Let me tell you something.
495
00:45:42,540 --> 00:45:45,251
When it's right for me to be on my own,
I'll be on my own.
496
00:45:45,334 --> 00:45:48,004
Use him and ditch him
at the strategic moment?
497
00:45:48,087 --> 00:45:49,672
That's a charming plan.
498
00:45:49,755 --> 00:45:52,425
What are you talking about?
I don't have any plans.
499
00:45:52,508 --> 00:45:54,093
You make it sound as if...
500
00:45:54,176 --> 00:45:55,720
Why do you always start something?
501
00:45:55,803 --> 00:45:58,180
I don't. I seem to have
a strange effect on you.
502
00:45:58,264 --> 00:46:01,350
When you're with me,
you let yourself realize what you're doing.
503
00:46:01,434 --> 00:46:03,811
Don't blame me if it shocks even you.
504
00:46:04,437 --> 00:46:06,230
Let's go to work.
505
00:46:06,314 --> 00:46:09,859
I'm sick of having you around.
Why don't you quit?
506
00:46:11,277 --> 00:46:14,154
- Why don't you tell the Gimp to fire me?
- You think I can't?
507
00:46:14,237 --> 00:46:16,448
I know you can. Why don't you?
508
00:46:19,492 --> 00:46:20,827
I don't know.
509
00:46:25,540 --> 00:46:27,042
Suppose I tell you.
510
00:46:33,465 --> 00:46:37,177
Let's find him, Ruth. Now. Let's tell him.
511
00:46:41,056 --> 00:46:43,934
No, there's nothing to tell him.
512
00:46:45,268 --> 00:46:49,022
- Nothing's changed. Nothing.
- Ruth, darling.
513
00:49:04,532 --> 00:49:07,785
Marty, I been asking you the same thing
for the past five weeks.
514
00:49:07,868 --> 00:49:11,121
Is she gonna sign with us again?
How long can I stall the sponsor?
515
00:49:11,205 --> 00:49:13,791
- What does she want?
- Just half of Chicago.
516
00:49:13,874 --> 00:49:15,459
Marty, got it.
517
00:49:15,543 --> 00:49:19,463
Relax, Brelston. In a couple of minutes,
you'll know as much as I do.
518
00:49:22,007 --> 00:49:23,801
Loomis? Go ahead, what?
519
00:49:29,223 --> 00:49:31,016
They agreed to everything?
520
00:49:32,184 --> 00:49:35,062
All right, we'll make it. I'll contact you.
521
00:49:38,691 --> 00:49:40,860
Marty, what she wanted? New York?
522
00:49:41,944 --> 00:49:44,404
That's swell. When we gonna go?
523
00:49:44,487 --> 00:49:47,866
Couple of days.
I don't know how smart it is.
524
00:49:48,116 --> 00:49:51,411
Well, anyway, it's done.
You gotta stay here, Georgie.
525
00:49:51,494 --> 00:49:54,873
- You gotta mind the laundry.
- Sure.
526
00:49:56,082 --> 00:49:59,460
How far away is New York?
You'll make visits lots of times.
527
00:50:07,051 --> 00:50:08,469
Well?
528
00:50:10,179 --> 00:50:12,348
- No dice, Brelston.
- What do you mean?
529
00:50:12,432 --> 00:50:16,644
What's the sense of half of Chicago?
She's gonna have all of New York.
530
00:50:23,151 --> 00:50:25,153
Ladies and gentlemen...
531
00:50:25,236 --> 00:50:29,282
I want to invite you all to a party
I'm throwing at the Plaza for Ruthie.
532
00:50:29,365 --> 00:50:30,909
Quiet. I ain't through.
533
00:50:30,992 --> 00:50:34,037
It was gonna be on account of
the winding up of the program.
534
00:50:34,120 --> 00:50:38,082
Now it's for something more important.
Something Ruthie doesn't know yet.
535
00:50:38,166 --> 00:50:40,919
- She's going to New York.
- New York?
536
00:50:41,127 --> 00:50:43,546
She's gonna be in the Ziegfeld Follies.
537
00:50:46,674 --> 00:50:48,218
Congratulations!
538
00:50:51,346 --> 00:50:54,474
All right, boys,
I'll see you over at the party.
539
00:50:55,308 --> 00:50:59,312
- I'm so excited.
- Told you I'd get the best for you, didn't I?
540
00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:01,814
Now maybe you'll have a little confidence.
541
00:51:01,898 --> 00:51:04,234
I do have. I always have had.
542
00:51:04,317 --> 00:51:07,445
- You're coming to the party?
- I'm sorry, I can't. Thank you.
543
00:51:07,529 --> 00:51:08,821
Pretty good, huh? Ziegfeld?
544
00:51:08,905 --> 00:51:11,074
Will you be ready to leave
in a couple of days?
545
00:51:11,157 --> 00:51:13,159
No, I'm not going to New York.
546
00:51:13,243 --> 00:51:14,786
What do you mean, you're not going?
547
00:51:14,869 --> 00:51:16,829
- I'll meet you at the Plaza.
- Wait, Ruthie.
548
00:51:16,913 --> 00:51:19,415
All right, Georgie, take her to the car.
549
00:51:21,584 --> 00:51:23,002
What's the big idea?
550
00:51:23,086 --> 00:51:26,297
I've had another offer in California.
It seems pretty interesting.
551
00:51:26,381 --> 00:51:28,258
There's gratitude for you.
552
00:51:28,341 --> 00:51:30,425
There's nothing I can do for Ruth anymore.
553
00:51:30,509 --> 00:51:33,929
- She's made it. Are you going?
- Yeah, I'm going.
554
00:51:34,930 --> 00:51:37,266
You bet your sweet life I'm going.
555
00:51:37,432 --> 00:51:39,768
She's gonna need me
the longest day she lives...
556
00:51:39,851 --> 00:51:41,603
no matter what you think.
557
00:51:42,437 --> 00:51:45,607
- No matter what I think?
- Yeah, and I know what you think...
558
00:51:45,691 --> 00:51:49,152
her having anything to do with me.
I know what you think about me, too.
559
00:51:49,236 --> 00:51:51,738
A jerk, a dumb mug, strictly for laughs.
560
00:51:52,197 --> 00:51:55,242
No. A cheap crook, pushing people around.
561
00:52:01,331 --> 00:52:04,334
- I ever push Ruthie around?
- You will, pal.
562
00:52:05,335 --> 00:52:08,839
Wise guy, you know everything.
You don't know nothing.
563
00:52:09,172 --> 00:52:12,801
In a million years, you wouldn't know
about Ruthie, how I feel about her.
564
00:52:12,885 --> 00:52:14,803
A girl like that. You don't know nothing.
565
00:52:14,887 --> 00:52:17,681
What I come from, the kind of a life,
the kind of a place.
566
00:52:17,764 --> 00:52:19,558
Same place I did, Snyder.
567
00:52:19,725 --> 00:52:21,977
Same place, same street,
same everything.
568
00:52:22,060 --> 00:52:25,606
Me and a thousand other guys,
and they don't all turn out like you.
569
00:52:25,689 --> 00:52:27,316
Who's she going with?
570
00:52:27,816 --> 00:52:29,610
Answer me that, smart guy.
571
00:52:31,612 --> 00:52:33,238
Who is she going with?
572
00:52:37,075 --> 00:52:39,953
There's only one thing
I got against you, you poor slob.
573
00:52:40,037 --> 00:52:43,540
I'm sorry you quit.
I would have liked to fire you.
574
00:52:53,258 --> 00:52:57,262
All right, come down the steps. That's it.
Good. Boys, come down behind her.
575
00:52:57,346 --> 00:53:00,724
That's it. Cross over. Arms, boys.
576
00:53:01,433 --> 00:53:04,436
Keep coming forward.
Get some bounce into it.
577
00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:07,648
- I stay here?
- That's okay. Just a bit more forward.
578
00:53:07,731 --> 00:53:11,902
That's it. Fine.
Cross over here. Cross over there.
579
00:53:12,402 --> 00:53:14,779
Stay there, Ruth. We'll fix it later.
580
00:53:14,862 --> 00:53:16,781
Now move over a little.
581
00:53:16,864 --> 00:53:20,701
That's it. Right there. Now go back.
582
00:53:20,952 --> 00:53:22,912
That's right. All the way back.
583
00:53:22,995 --> 00:53:27,416
Now you do the same thing.
Clear the way, so she can get through.
584
00:53:27,583 --> 00:53:30,836
Come on, that's it. That's good.
585
00:53:30,920 --> 00:53:34,465
That's fine. Good.
Little bit more. All right.
586
00:53:36,217 --> 00:53:39,303
- That's all.
- All right, lunch, everybody. Back at 2:00.
587
00:53:39,387 --> 00:53:42,181
- Same number, same people.
- Same mistakes.
588
00:53:42,890 --> 00:53:44,600
I seem to do everything wrong.
589
00:53:44,684 --> 00:53:46,978
No, it's me.
I haven't turned on the magic yet.
590
00:53:47,061 --> 00:53:49,438
Take off the worried face
and get some lunch.
591
00:53:49,522 --> 00:53:52,775
It's in your dressing room, Miss Etting.
Mr. Ziegfeld ordered it.
592
00:53:52,859 --> 00:53:56,153
Thank you. Doesn't everyone
get spoiled rotten around here?
593
00:53:56,237 --> 00:53:59,365
- No, we just choose a select few.
- Goodbye.
594
00:53:59,448 --> 00:54:02,243
Trent, don't go. I wanna talk to you.
595
00:54:05,538 --> 00:54:08,457
Mr. Snyder, I didn't know
you were honoring us today.
596
00:54:08,541 --> 00:54:11,711
Today and every day.
And I still say it's lousy.
597
00:54:11,794 --> 00:54:14,797
All week, I've been trying to tell you.
Why don't you listen?
598
00:54:14,881 --> 00:54:18,217
Look how you've been handling her.
Guys prancing around, hiding her.
599
00:54:18,301 --> 00:54:19,343
It's crummy.
600
00:54:19,427 --> 00:54:22,263
Sorry you don't like my work.
Tell Mr. Ziegfeld.
601
00:54:22,471 --> 00:54:24,223
I'm telling you, big shot.
602
00:54:24,307 --> 00:54:28,394
Don't give me that fish-eye of yours.
I know what's good for her.
603
00:54:28,477 --> 00:54:30,313
I ought to. I'm her manager.
604
00:54:30,396 --> 00:54:32,315
She never made a move I didn't tell her.
605
00:54:32,398 --> 00:54:35,026
I'm sure Miss Etting
has found your advice invaluable.
606
00:54:35,109 --> 00:54:38,362
- Perhaps you're more talented than I.
- You ain't kidding. You stink.
607
00:54:38,446 --> 00:54:41,407
Fred! This is beginning to lose
its amusement value.
608
00:54:41,490 --> 00:54:42,575
I'll take care of it.
609
00:54:42,658 --> 00:54:45,453
Beat it, errand boy.
I told you 10 times already!
610
00:54:45,536 --> 00:54:48,206
I don't do business with assistants.
I'm talking to him.
611
00:54:48,289 --> 00:54:50,875
- No, you're not.
- Just a minute.
612
00:54:50,958 --> 00:54:53,753
- Take your hands off me.
- Fred, let me.
613
00:54:59,217 --> 00:55:03,053
Are you out of your mind?
You can't act like a hoodlum in here.
614
00:55:03,136 --> 00:55:05,639
You think like Ruthie,
it's some kind of church?
615
00:55:05,722 --> 00:55:08,308
Mention the name Ziegfeld
and everybody must kneel?
616
00:55:08,391 --> 00:55:11,811
I'm thinking of her,
what you're doing and been doing to her.
617
00:55:11,895 --> 00:55:13,438
I gotta look out for her interests.
618
00:55:13,522 --> 00:55:16,525
They're doing that.
They're the best in the business.
619
00:55:16,608 --> 00:55:20,153
They'll make a big star out of her
if you'll just give them a chance.
620
00:55:20,237 --> 00:55:22,155
But you can't shove them around.
621
00:55:23,782 --> 00:55:25,951
You don't have to worry about me.
622
00:55:27,494 --> 00:55:31,540
I don't wanna do nothing to hurt Ruthie.
I'm just used to taking care.
623
00:55:31,623 --> 00:55:36,336
- I just can't sit and do nothing for her.
- I know, Marty. I understand.
624
00:55:40,173 --> 00:55:42,592
You wanna have a cup of coffee
with me, Barney?
625
00:55:42,676 --> 00:55:46,137
Sure, I'd like it. As a matter of fact,
I'll buy your lunch.
626
00:55:46,221 --> 00:55:49,140
You'll buy? I'll buy. Come on.
627
00:59:33,613 --> 00:59:35,615
I think I'll go backstage and see her.
628
00:59:35,698 --> 00:59:38,284
No, wait, Marty. Wait till after the show.
629
00:59:41,621 --> 00:59:43,790
Very good, Ruth, take another bow.
630
00:59:51,756 --> 00:59:54,759
- You've got them.
- She's gotta make a change.
631
00:59:54,842 --> 00:59:57,011
Keep with it, Ruth, keep belting.
632
00:59:58,054 --> 01:00:01,516
- Miss Etting, you were wonderful.
- Thank you. We have to hurry.
633
01:00:06,938 --> 01:00:08,565
I'm sorry, Mr. Snyder.
634
01:00:08,648 --> 01:00:11,401
- I just wanna see Miss Etting.
- Sorry, I got my orders.
635
01:00:11,484 --> 01:00:14,112
You won't get in any trouble.
I give you my guarantee.
636
01:00:14,195 --> 01:00:16,363
Wait a minute. Taylor, come here.
637
01:00:16,572 --> 01:00:19,032
I wanna see Ruth a minute.
Tell him it's okay.
638
01:00:19,116 --> 01:00:22,494
Please, she only has a couple of minutes
between numbers.
639
01:00:22,578 --> 01:00:25,789
- Out of my way, punk.
- Marty, what is it? What's the matter?
640
01:00:25,873 --> 01:00:28,667
I wanna see you and
this big shot thinks he can stop me.
641
01:00:28,750 --> 01:00:30,794
If they don't want people backstage...
642
01:00:30,878 --> 01:00:33,755
What're you trying to give me?
I've seen people come in.
643
01:00:33,839 --> 01:00:36,550
You make exceptions
to everybody but me?
644
01:00:36,633 --> 01:00:39,136
You asked for it, you got it. Satisfied?
645
01:00:40,053 --> 01:00:41,847
You been riding me from the beginning.
646
01:00:41,930 --> 01:00:44,349
One more crack out of you
and I'll take you apart.
647
01:00:44,433 --> 01:00:47,686
Why don't you go play cops and robbers
where they're scared of you?
648
01:00:47,769 --> 01:00:49,730
This isn't Chicago.
649
01:00:52,149 --> 01:00:53,650
Marty, stop it!
650
01:00:58,197 --> 01:01:00,657
- Take it easy.
- Throw him out.
651
01:01:00,741 --> 01:01:03,994
- Ruth, come on. It's your cue.
- Call a doctor.
652
01:01:09,374 --> 01:01:11,668
Outside, buster, come on.
653
01:01:16,548 --> 01:01:17,883
Go on.
654
01:01:21,637 --> 01:01:23,514
I don't care how you do it, Georgie.
655
01:01:23,597 --> 01:01:25,641
Find a buyer and get rid of it.
656
01:01:26,266 --> 01:01:28,852
Get all you can. I'm depending on you.
657
01:01:30,187 --> 01:01:33,482
I'm pulling Ruth out of the show.
She's leaving Ziegfeld.
658
01:01:33,607 --> 01:01:36,068
- I am what?
- I'm fed up!
659
01:01:37,569 --> 01:01:40,239
I've had enough. It's up to here with me.
660
01:01:40,322 --> 01:01:41,907
From now on, I'm number one.
661
01:01:41,990 --> 01:01:45,244
You won't be the loser.
I've been on the phone, I got bookings.
662
01:01:45,327 --> 01:01:46,703
You'll rise on top.
663
01:01:46,787 --> 01:01:49,456
Barney, we gotta get out of that contract.
664
01:01:49,540 --> 01:01:52,376
I'll pay off. I'll have the dough,
I'm selling the laundry.
665
01:01:52,459 --> 01:01:54,336
But there might just be an angle.
666
01:01:54,419 --> 01:01:57,047
Marty, we signed that contract
in good faith...
667
01:01:57,130 --> 01:02:00,175
- and there's only one thing...
- There is a good angle.
668
01:02:00,259 --> 01:02:02,760
You made us a nice little scandal tonight.
669
01:02:02,844 --> 01:02:05,179
Fred Taylor's in the hospital
with a broken jaw.
670
01:02:05,263 --> 01:02:06,973
He's lucky he's alive. So what?
671
01:02:07,056 --> 01:02:09,892
So Ziegfeld doesn't want me
in the show with you around.
672
01:02:09,976 --> 01:02:13,896
That don't hurt my feelings.
He's a jerk if he lets you go for free.
673
01:02:13,980 --> 01:02:16,315
Only I'm not going.
674
01:02:16,482 --> 01:02:18,943
I was a big hit tonight.
675
01:02:19,902 --> 01:02:23,155
It's a chance to be somebody,
it's the Follies, it's Broadway.
676
01:02:23,239 --> 01:02:26,033
It's a chance to meet decent people
and to make friends.
677
01:02:26,117 --> 01:02:28,911
It's what I've wanted and worked for.
Why should I leave it?
678
01:02:28,995 --> 01:02:32,206
- What sense does it make?
- It's what I want, the way it's gonna be!
679
01:02:32,290 --> 01:02:35,501
- You can't tell me what to do!
- In a pig's eye, I can!
680
01:02:35,585 --> 01:02:39,255
- Do you think you own me?
- I do own you. That's exactly right!
681
01:02:41,591 --> 01:02:43,050
Barney.
682
01:02:46,095 --> 01:02:47,680
Good night, Marty.
683
01:02:56,606 --> 01:02:58,649
I'm sorry I got angry.
684
01:02:59,025 --> 01:03:00,526
We have a lot to talk about...
685
01:03:00,610 --> 01:03:03,070
but let's not do it this way,
shout at each other.
686
01:03:03,154 --> 01:03:05,740
Don't use your ritzy Ziegfeld voice on me.
687
01:03:06,449 --> 01:03:09,118
Make like you're back
in the 10 cents-a-dance joint!
688
01:03:09,202 --> 01:03:11,579
But I'm not, Marty. That's the whole point.
689
01:03:11,662 --> 01:03:14,498
- I'm right where I wanna be.
- And I ain't good enough.
690
01:03:14,582 --> 01:03:16,500
- I didn't say that!
- Then say it!
691
01:03:16,584 --> 01:03:18,294
Have some guts, say it!
692
01:03:18,377 --> 01:03:20,963
All right! You don't belong here!
693
01:03:21,047 --> 01:03:23,674
I can't help it, it's your fault.
It's the way you act.
694
01:03:23,758 --> 01:03:26,511
It's the way I've always acted!
I never heard you holler!
695
01:03:26,594 --> 01:03:29,180
It's rotten, dirty, and I hate it!
696
01:03:34,727 --> 01:03:36,103
You hate it?
697
01:03:39,315 --> 01:03:41,108
You're talking to me, baby.
698
01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:43,945
Me, not Ziegfeld. I know you!
699
01:03:44,278 --> 01:03:45,863
You were right there with me.
700
01:03:45,947 --> 01:03:49,241
Working me, begging for more,
never mind how rotten and dirty.
701
01:03:49,324 --> 01:03:52,160
Maybe I did,
but I don't want to go on that way.
702
01:03:52,327 --> 01:03:54,454
- I knew tonight when...
- Tonight?
703
01:03:55,163 --> 01:03:56,915
The minute we got here, this started.
704
01:03:56,998 --> 01:03:58,959
The minute we got in
that stinking theater.
705
01:03:59,042 --> 01:04:00,752
You saw the way they treated me...
706
01:04:00,835 --> 01:04:03,547
those fancy New York jokers,
like I was nothing.
707
01:04:03,630 --> 01:04:06,132
Small potatoes, like I had no right.
708
01:04:06,842 --> 01:04:09,177
I didn't say nothing. I waited.
709
01:04:09,261 --> 01:04:12,013
I waited to see you butt in and tell them:
710
01:04:12,097 --> 01:04:14,140
"He's with me. We're together. "
711
01:04:14,474 --> 01:04:17,102
- I couldn't have.
- You could!
712
01:04:17,894 --> 01:04:20,105
I'd have done it for you.
713
01:04:20,730 --> 01:04:25,068
But you never opened your trap.
Like you never owed me nothing.
714
01:04:25,402 --> 01:04:28,321
You walked away!
715
01:04:31,241 --> 01:04:33,618
Since the first day that I seen you...
716
01:04:33,702 --> 01:04:37,956
I knocked my brains out for you.
But that's all right.
717
01:04:38,039 --> 01:04:41,084
I'm a poor slob, I can pack a bag,
go back to the laundry...
718
01:04:41,167 --> 01:04:43,587
lay down and die. You don't care.
719
01:04:43,670 --> 01:04:46,339
No skin off your back.
You got what you wanted.
720
01:04:46,423 --> 01:04:49,092
I brought you this far. Nobody else. I did.
721
01:04:49,426 --> 01:04:53,555
But that don't count,
not with a high-class dame like you.
722
01:04:53,763 --> 01:04:56,975
Marty, I know what I owe you. I know it.
723
01:04:57,100 --> 01:04:58,894
But there's no way to pay it.
724
01:04:58,977 --> 01:05:01,646
Don't you see? There's no way to pay it.
725
01:05:01,730 --> 01:05:03,148
Ain't there?
726
01:05:30,800 --> 01:05:32,009
You can go.
727
01:05:35,679 --> 01:05:38,974
Let me do the lugging. You got me around,
at least take advantage.
728
01:05:39,058 --> 01:05:40,351
It's all right.
729
01:05:41,268 --> 01:05:43,437
Why don't you sit down and relax?
730
01:05:43,562 --> 01:05:46,357
Want me to get you a cup of coffee?
That's what you need.
731
01:05:46,440 --> 01:05:48,609
No, I don't want any. I'm fine.
732
01:05:53,447 --> 01:05:56,575
I bet you can't guess
where we're going this afternoon.
733
01:05:56,659 --> 01:05:58,869
You know that jewelry store
on Fifth Avenue?
734
01:05:58,953 --> 01:06:01,664
The one with nothing in the window
except the pearls?
735
01:06:01,747 --> 01:06:02,957
To show they ain't boasting?
736
01:06:03,040 --> 01:06:05,751
We're going there
to pick up a little something for you.
737
01:06:05,834 --> 01:06:07,920
Retail. How do you like that?
738
01:06:09,296 --> 01:06:11,340
You don't have to buy me anything.
739
01:06:11,423 --> 01:06:14,301
Who says I have to? I want to.
A little token of how I feel.
740
01:06:14,385 --> 01:06:16,053
Don't worry about it so much.
741
01:06:16,136 --> 01:06:19,306
Who's worrying?
Everything's gonna be great.
742
01:06:19,807 --> 01:06:23,727
The minute we get on that train,
and out of this phony town...
743
01:06:24,019 --> 01:06:26,772
everything will be great. You'll see.
744
01:06:26,897 --> 01:06:29,692
I'll do more for you than a dozen Ziegfelds.
745
01:06:29,775 --> 01:06:32,403
The tours I got worked out for you,
coast to coast.
746
01:06:32,486 --> 01:06:35,531
Hotspots everyplace.
What's so terrible about it?
747
01:06:35,990 --> 01:06:40,494
The day will come when you'll thank me.
You'll laugh when you remember.
748
01:06:42,288 --> 01:06:44,123
Are you listening to me?
749
01:06:45,457 --> 01:06:47,251
I'm not complaining.
750
01:06:49,044 --> 01:06:52,965
I'm just trying to tell you that
you don't have to work so hard.
751
01:06:53,048 --> 01:06:54,967
You don't have to sell me.
752
01:06:57,636 --> 01:06:58,929
I'm sold.
753
01:11:17,059 --> 01:11:18,853
Just listen to this!
754
01:11:22,273 --> 01:11:23,691
How was that?
755
01:11:24,192 --> 01:11:25,985
You can't top it anywhere.
756
01:11:37,622 --> 01:11:39,874
- Thanks.
- How did it go?
757
01:11:40,333 --> 01:11:41,751
Same as always.
758
01:11:42,168 --> 01:11:45,338
Did Marty tell you where we're going
after we close here?
759
01:11:45,421 --> 01:11:48,674
Since when is it any of my business
where I work?
760
01:11:48,758 --> 01:11:52,803
- He just wants to surprise you is all.
- He couldn't.
761
01:11:52,887 --> 01:11:56,849
- Ruthie, are you there?
- No, I'm playing a benefit in Duluth.
762
01:12:01,771 --> 01:12:03,105
Leave it!
763
01:12:04,482 --> 01:12:07,276
Everybody's so nervous around here
all the time.
764
01:12:09,362 --> 01:12:13,074
I come in. I got great news, a surprise.
765
01:12:13,407 --> 01:12:15,576
But you gotta make cracks.
766
01:12:15,785 --> 01:12:18,621
It's enough
to take the heart out of a person.
767
01:12:18,704 --> 01:12:22,375
Never mind the dramatics.
What's the big news this time?
768
01:12:23,918 --> 01:12:27,213
You're merely going to make
a picture in Hollywood. That's all.
769
01:12:27,296 --> 01:12:32,134
I merely kill myself for the past two weeks
setting a deal up for you. That's all.
770
01:12:32,969 --> 01:12:34,636
And what a deal!
771
01:12:34,719 --> 01:12:37,848
Between you and me,
the things I told Loomis to ask for...
772
01:12:37,931 --> 01:12:39,683
I didn't dream we had a chance.
773
01:12:39,766 --> 01:12:42,310
You should've heard Paul Hunter
on the phone just now.
774
01:12:42,394 --> 01:12:44,563
Long distance.
The head of the whole studio.
775
01:12:44,646 --> 01:12:48,275
He acted like you was the Queen of Sheba,
or something.
776
01:12:49,359 --> 01:12:51,194
Well, how about it?
777
01:12:51,820 --> 01:12:53,989
It's going to be a change, anyway.
778
01:12:54,072 --> 01:12:57,075
- You glad at least?
- Sure, why not?
779
01:12:58,827 --> 01:13:02,831
Mrs. Snyder, could you just once...
780
01:13:03,290 --> 01:13:05,876
show some plain, common enthusiasm?
781
01:13:06,459 --> 01:13:09,045
What do you want? A thank-you note?
782
01:13:11,965 --> 01:13:15,927
You know something, Ruthie?
You ought to lay off that stuff.
783
01:13:17,053 --> 01:13:19,890
You're getting to look like an old bag.
784
01:13:40,118 --> 01:13:41,369
Hello.
785
01:13:41,745 --> 01:13:43,830
Miss Ruth Etting, please.
Hollywood calling.
786
01:13:43,914 --> 01:13:46,333
This is Miss Etting. Hollywood?
787
01:13:47,292 --> 01:13:50,504
Operator, are you sure
this call isn't for Mr. Snyder?
788
01:13:50,587 --> 01:13:52,797
No, ma 'am. Miss Ruth Etting.
789
01:13:52,881 --> 01:13:54,633
Well, this is she speaking.
790
01:13:54,716 --> 01:13:56,551
- Hello, Ruth?
- Hello?
791
01:13:57,010 --> 01:13:58,637
This is Johnny.
792
01:14:00,639 --> 01:14:02,349
Johnny Alderman.
793
01:14:05,602 --> 01:14:09,481
You can hang up, Ruth. I don't know
how you feel about talking to me.
794
01:14:12,192 --> 01:14:16,571
I feel fine about it, Johnny.
But I can't believe it.
795
01:14:16,821 --> 01:14:19,156
What made you call after all this time?
796
01:14:19,240 --> 01:14:23,285
I've wanted to call you often enough,
only I didn't think I should.
797
01:14:23,369 --> 01:14:25,621
Not after I heard you were married.
798
01:14:25,704 --> 01:14:28,791
I just heard you're coming out
to do a picture for Paul Hunter.
799
01:14:28,874 --> 01:14:31,210
- Yes.
- I work here, too, Ruth.
800
01:14:31,293 --> 01:14:34,213
And what's more,
I'm going to be working with you.
801
01:14:34,296 --> 01:14:37,758
- How do you like that?
- Johnny, you're making it up.
802
01:14:38,884 --> 01:14:42,680
Ruth, I just came in to tell you...
Who are you talking to?
803
01:14:42,763 --> 01:14:46,308
No, I'm sorry.
I don't know what my future plans are.
804
01:14:47,518 --> 01:14:51,230
I see. I gather you don't
want to talk anymore.
805
01:14:52,940 --> 01:14:55,484
Thank you. Thank you for calling.
806
01:14:57,069 --> 01:14:58,821
It was one of the newspapers.
807
01:14:58,904 --> 01:15:02,116
Why didn't they call me?
I handle the publicity.
808
01:15:02,199 --> 01:15:05,661
Ruthie, we're leaving for the Coast
on Sunday.
809
01:15:06,245 --> 01:15:10,124
And I picked a late train, so that
you wouldn't have to rush getting up.
810
01:15:10,207 --> 01:15:14,170
You know what I mean?
It'll do you good, Hollywood.
811
01:15:14,837 --> 01:15:17,715
You'll enjoy it.
It's good for a person to change.
812
01:15:17,798 --> 01:15:21,177
You and me have been getting
pretty jumpy lately, anyway.
813
01:15:21,260 --> 01:15:24,471
- I don't want to go.
- What?
814
01:15:27,183 --> 01:15:30,186
It's just that I'm so tired. I need a rest.
815
01:15:30,269 --> 01:15:33,564
But I asked you
before I started on the deal.
816
01:15:33,647 --> 01:15:37,818
"Take a little vacation," I said.
"Lay off awhile," I said. But, no.
817
01:15:38,319 --> 01:15:41,655
You wait until I get the deal all sewed up
hook, line and sinker.
818
01:15:41,739 --> 01:15:44,408
Answer why. Explain me why!
819
01:15:46,327 --> 01:15:49,371
It's just a feeling that I have. Forget it.
820
01:15:58,714 --> 01:16:01,550
I'm taking Mr. Snyder in to see Mr. Hunter.
821
01:16:01,634 --> 01:16:04,052
Yes. Second corner to the right.
822
01:16:08,348 --> 01:16:09,807
- Hello, Paul.
- Hello.
823
01:16:09,891 --> 01:16:12,852
This is Mr. Snyder.
Mr. Hunter, Mr. Snyder.
824
01:16:12,936 --> 01:16:17,482
Very nice to meet you, Mr. Snyder.
But hasn't Miss Etting come with you?
825
01:16:17,565 --> 01:16:21,444
No, Mrs. Snyder just sings.
I'm the one who does the talking.
826
01:16:21,528 --> 01:16:25,281
I see. Well, let's start with the story.
827
01:16:27,033 --> 01:16:31,621
I'm sure you'll like it. I don't mind saying
we're all very proud of it.
828
01:16:31,704 --> 01:16:33,581
Where's the music? I don't see no music.
829
01:16:33,665 --> 01:16:36,042
It comes separately, Marty. I have it here.
830
01:16:36,125 --> 01:16:37,377
What's he doing here?
831
01:16:37,460 --> 01:16:39,879
Mr. Alderman
is the music director on this picture.
832
01:16:39,963 --> 01:16:42,131
I used to work for Mr. Snyder
and Miss Etting.
833
01:16:42,215 --> 01:16:44,425
That makes everything nice and friendly.
834
01:16:44,509 --> 01:16:47,470
These are the numbers.
I think she'll like them. I've chosen...
835
01:16:47,554 --> 01:16:49,889
You've chosen?
Nobody else got nothing to say?
836
01:16:49,973 --> 01:16:51,724
They're all subject to Ruth's approval.
837
01:16:51,808 --> 01:16:55,061
She ain't a kid in the chorus no more.
She knows what she's doing.
838
01:16:55,144 --> 01:16:57,480
And when she don't, believe you me, I do.
839
01:16:57,564 --> 01:16:59,065
Of course, Mr. Snyder.
840
01:16:59,148 --> 01:17:01,526
That's why we're so happy
to have you both with us.
841
01:17:01,609 --> 01:17:04,821
Why don't we all sit down
and talk things over?
842
01:17:17,709 --> 01:17:20,211
- Look who's gone Hollywood.
- Yeah.
843
01:17:21,296 --> 01:17:23,339
Come on, Marty.
844
01:17:24,966 --> 01:17:27,093
Come on, Georgie.
845
01:17:31,973 --> 01:17:34,934
Everybody comes to California
to lay around in the sun...
846
01:17:35,018 --> 01:17:36,728
and she gotta sit in the house.
847
01:17:36,811 --> 01:17:40,106
- Hello, Ruth.
- Hello, Barney.
848
01:17:40,607 --> 01:17:42,066
- Can I get you a drink?
- Thanks.
849
01:17:42,150 --> 01:17:43,902
- Everything go all right?
- Fine.
850
01:17:43,985 --> 01:17:48,114
Of course, Mr. Hunter was disappointed
that you weren't with us.
851
01:17:48,406 --> 01:17:50,574
You have a lot of meetings tomorrow.
852
01:17:50,657 --> 01:17:54,578
There's wardrobe, make-up, and publicity.
Marty has the list.
853
01:17:54,661 --> 01:17:59,124
Yeah, you start with the music director.
And wait till you hear who that is.
854
01:17:59,208 --> 01:18:02,002
Johnny Alderman,
the piano player from Chicago.
855
01:18:02,085 --> 01:18:03,754
Is that a laugh!
856
01:18:04,588 --> 01:18:06,507
It's a small world, isn't it?
857
01:18:06,590 --> 01:18:08,467
What's with you and this fellow, Marty?
858
01:18:08,550 --> 01:18:10,511
He seemed to bother you
at the conference.
859
01:18:10,594 --> 01:18:14,056
He don't bother me one bit.
He ain't important enough to bother me.
860
01:18:14,139 --> 01:18:17,226
I just don't like him.
There's something about his personality.
861
01:18:17,309 --> 01:18:19,520
He always gave me a swift pain, that guy.
862
01:18:19,603 --> 01:18:22,272
Why should he be on a picture?
A piano player like that.
863
01:18:22,356 --> 01:18:24,483
We ought to have somebody good.
A name.
864
01:18:24,566 --> 01:18:25,984
He's making a name for himself.
865
01:18:26,068 --> 01:18:30,197
Let him make it on his own time.
How do you feel about it, Ruth?
866
01:18:30,280 --> 01:18:33,784
I don't care one way or the other.
Whatever you say.
867
01:18:34,493 --> 01:18:36,912
We'll leave it lay
for the time being, anyway.
868
01:18:36,995 --> 01:18:38,872
Hunter's a nice fellow, don't you think?
869
01:18:38,956 --> 01:18:41,124
A four-flusher, just like the rest of them.
870
01:18:41,208 --> 01:18:43,418
You know how long it took me
to get his number?
871
01:18:43,502 --> 01:18:46,296
Just about one minute.
And I let him know it, too.
872
01:18:46,380 --> 01:18:48,340
Did you see the expression on his face...
873
01:18:48,423 --> 01:18:51,093
when I told him
his last three pictures were stinkeroos?
874
01:18:51,176 --> 01:18:53,262
I really let him have it, didn't I, Barney?
875
01:18:53,345 --> 01:18:57,850
It's the only way with those phonies.
You gotta let them know who you are.
876
01:18:59,059 --> 01:19:00,894
Who are you, Marty?
877
01:19:04,022 --> 01:19:07,192
- What do you mean?
- What have you accomplished?
878
01:19:07,276 --> 01:19:09,278
Can you produce a picture?
879
01:19:09,361 --> 01:19:12,114
Have you done one successful thing
on your own?
880
01:19:12,197 --> 01:19:14,575
Just who do you think you are?
881
01:19:24,626 --> 01:19:27,004
Pretty sharp, the little lady.
882
01:19:32,384 --> 01:19:34,303
Whoever I am, kiddo...
883
01:19:36,345 --> 01:19:38,472
I'm what makes you tick.
884
01:19:40,224 --> 01:19:42,435
Don't you ever forget that.
885
01:19:51,277 --> 01:19:53,613
Is it always like this, Ruth?
886
01:19:58,576 --> 01:20:01,162
I'll make a deal with you, Barney.
887
01:20:01,537 --> 01:20:05,958
You don't tell me your sad stories,
and I won't tell you mine.
888
01:20:09,754 --> 01:20:11,797
How do you like it?
889
01:20:12,673 --> 01:20:15,968
Have I ever done one successful thing
on my own?
890
01:20:18,304 --> 01:20:19,847
Listen, Marty.
891
01:20:21,265 --> 01:20:23,601
I figure I get what she means.
892
01:20:23,768 --> 01:20:26,687
Back in Chicago, you were a big man, see?
893
01:20:26,771 --> 01:20:29,148
But since then,
the people we do business with...
894
01:20:29,232 --> 01:20:31,275
your name don't mean nothing.
895
01:20:31,359 --> 01:20:35,738
After all, it ain't like it's up anywhere.
"Marty Snyder presents. "
896
01:20:35,821 --> 01:20:37,698
Sure, you're married to her.
897
01:20:37,782 --> 01:20:41,619
But for all they know, you could be a guy
that's hanging on to a good thing.
898
01:20:41,702 --> 01:20:45,206
A meal ticket.
You follow what I mean, Marty?
899
01:20:49,126 --> 01:20:50,711
I'll show them.
900
01:20:55,842 --> 01:20:57,260
She'll see.
901
01:20:57,927 --> 01:21:00,888
Well, get up!
What are you laying there for?
902
01:21:09,522 --> 01:21:12,525
Barney, come in here. I wanna talk to you.
903
01:21:15,987 --> 01:21:20,156
Barney, get free tomorrow, all day.
We got business.
904
01:21:20,490 --> 01:21:23,660
And, Georgie, you take Ruth to the studio
instead of me.
905
01:21:23,743 --> 01:21:25,412
And stick with her.
906
01:21:25,495 --> 01:21:29,958
If she wants to know where I am,
just tell her I'm too busy.
907
01:21:30,876 --> 01:21:35,714
That's right, tell her I'm just too busy.
908
01:21:47,100 --> 01:21:48,685
- Hello, Johnny.
- Hello, Ruth.
909
01:21:48,768 --> 01:21:50,937
- It's good to see you again.
- Good to see you.
910
01:21:51,021 --> 01:21:53,023
- I'm sorry I'm late.
- It doesn't matter.
911
01:21:53,106 --> 01:21:54,900
- You know Georgie?
- Sure.
912
01:21:54,983 --> 01:21:56,526
- How are you, Georgie?
- Fine.
913
01:21:56,610 --> 01:21:59,738
Why don't you sit down over here
and make yourself comfortable?
914
01:21:59,821 --> 01:22:02,991
We'll be in there by the piano.
This way, Ruth.
915
01:22:13,627 --> 01:22:15,712
Let's have a good look at you.
916
01:22:15,795 --> 01:22:17,923
- A good look?
- A good look.
917
01:22:19,883 --> 01:22:22,385
- Have I changed?
- Yes.
918
01:22:23,678 --> 01:22:26,431
A lot's happened to you. And it shows.
919
01:22:31,353 --> 01:22:33,063
You're beautiful.
920
01:22:38,193 --> 01:22:39,819
It's good to see you, Johnny.
921
01:22:39,903 --> 01:22:43,657
I'm awfully glad we're going to make
a picture together. Really I am.
922
01:22:43,740 --> 01:22:46,326
We always got along fine
when we worked.
923
01:22:46,409 --> 01:22:49,788
And that's what we're here for, isn't it?
To work.
924
01:22:51,039 --> 01:22:53,500
By all means. Let's get to work.
925
01:22:55,502 --> 01:22:59,130
Have you looked over the songs?
Here are some choices.
926
01:23:00,298 --> 01:23:03,552
Doesn't make any difference.
Whatever you think.
927
01:23:05,095 --> 01:23:06,971
Shall we get started?
928
01:23:07,221 --> 01:23:08,597
All right.
929
01:23:09,557 --> 01:23:13,227
I think you know this.
It's an old one of mine.
930
01:23:14,979 --> 01:23:18,482
I'll Never Stop Loving You. Yes, I know it.
931
01:25:19,853 --> 01:25:22,146
Yes, you still care about it.
932
01:25:29,028 --> 01:25:32,323
Are you always this unhappy?
Or is it just today?
933
01:25:36,202 --> 01:25:40,707
Will this be a long session, Johnny?
Because I have other appointments.
934
01:25:42,500 --> 01:25:46,296
No, all I'd planned for today
was to run through the songs.
935
01:25:46,379 --> 01:25:50,925
Of course, I had thought you'd have
lunch with me afterwards, or a drink.
936
01:25:53,678 --> 01:25:57,390
- Or a cup of coffee?
- Or a cup of coffee.
937
01:25:59,642 --> 01:26:03,771
The last time you asked me that,
I didn't because I didn't want to.
938
01:26:03,855 --> 01:26:07,108
But now I'll tell you
so that you'll never ask me again:
939
01:26:07,317 --> 01:26:08,693
I can't.
940
01:26:24,542 --> 01:26:26,419
- Hello, Barney.
- Hello.
941
01:26:26,503 --> 01:26:29,464
I'm very tired, Marty.
I didn't want to go out tonight.
942
01:26:29,547 --> 01:26:32,300
Relax. Don't be so sour.
You got to eat someplace.
943
01:26:32,383 --> 01:26:35,303
- I ordered your steak medium, okay?
- Yes.
944
01:26:35,969 --> 01:26:37,804
How was it today?
945
01:26:37,888 --> 01:26:40,557
How'd you get along
with that piano player?
946
01:26:40,641 --> 01:26:43,227
I suppose he feels
he's a pretty big shot now, huh?
947
01:26:43,310 --> 01:26:45,521
Why shouldn't he? He's doing pretty well.
948
01:26:45,604 --> 01:26:49,316
Working for somebody else, ain't he?
Still punching a time clock.
949
01:26:49,399 --> 01:26:52,569
- Who doesn't?
- Not everyone.
950
01:26:52,653 --> 01:26:55,572
Go ahead and tell her. Get it over with.
951
01:26:55,948 --> 01:26:57,658
Garbage! Take it back!
952
01:26:57,741 --> 01:27:01,370
- Tell the chef, Mr. Snyder said "steak. "
- I'm sorry, sir.
953
01:27:01,453 --> 01:27:05,541
There was nothing wrong with that steak.
You can't go on acting this way.
954
01:27:05,624 --> 01:27:09,795
Yes, I can. Here I can.
I can act any way I want.
955
01:27:10,295 --> 01:27:12,464
This is my place. I own it.
956
01:27:13,382 --> 01:27:15,801
- How do you like that?
- You what?
957
01:27:15,884 --> 01:27:19,179
It's his, all right.
It's changed hands 10 times.
958
01:27:19,263 --> 01:27:21,932
It's jinxed everybody who's ever had it.
But it's his.
959
01:27:22,015 --> 01:27:23,267
What do you want with it?
960
01:27:23,350 --> 01:27:26,019
I'll turn it into
the hottest nightspot on the Coast.
961
01:27:26,103 --> 01:27:29,648
Don't you get worried. None of
your money's in it. Not one red cent.
962
01:27:29,731 --> 01:27:31,483
In two or three weeks, when we open...
963
01:27:31,567 --> 01:27:34,736
you can beg to buy in,
you and old lady Loomis.
964
01:27:34,820 --> 01:27:37,656
In two or three weeks?
I'll be on this picture for months.
965
01:27:37,739 --> 01:27:40,200
- I can't play any outside dates.
- Did I ask you?
966
01:27:40,284 --> 01:27:41,994
This joint, I make a success.
967
01:27:42,077 --> 01:27:45,205
Don't blame me.
I told him it was no cinch, this business.
968
01:27:45,289 --> 01:27:48,667
I know it like the back of my hand.
Been around clubs for 14 years.
969
01:27:48,750 --> 01:27:52,171
What do you think I was doing
when I ran that laundry? Washing socks?
970
01:27:52,254 --> 01:27:55,716
What, you want everybody to think
I'm a dumb ox with no brains?
971
01:27:55,799 --> 01:27:59,511
You want they should think
I'm getting handouts from you?
972
01:27:59,761 --> 01:28:03,140
So busy making them think
you're something, they think I'm nothing.
973
01:28:03,223 --> 01:28:05,893
You put it all in, Marty?
The dough from the laundry?
974
01:28:05,976 --> 01:28:09,062
You getting scared, too?
Here's what I wanna do.
975
01:28:09,146 --> 01:28:12,357
First, I close down the whole place.
Then I throw out everything.
976
01:28:12,441 --> 01:28:15,903
Everything. Every stick.
I'm starting from scratch.
977
01:28:16,320 --> 01:28:20,073
When I get through,
it's own mother won't know this joint.
978
01:28:20,157 --> 01:28:23,451
And it's gonna look rich, like it costs.
Only in good taste.
979
01:28:23,534 --> 01:28:26,287
Like you're always screaming,
nothing loud.
980
01:28:26,370 --> 01:28:29,999
And the entertainment,
only headliners, personalities.
981
01:28:30,416 --> 01:28:34,420
Am I bending your ear too much, Ruthie?
If I am, I'll shut up.
982
01:28:34,754 --> 01:28:38,132
But I'm all steamed up
about this thing, you know?
983
01:28:43,054 --> 01:28:46,057
- What did you do that for?
- I'm sorry.
984
01:28:47,600 --> 01:28:49,435
I'm just so nervous.
985
01:28:50,102 --> 01:28:53,773
The rehearsals and everything
starting tomorrow...
986
01:28:54,941 --> 01:28:58,194
Yeah, that's what it is.
Sure, you're bound to be...
987
01:28:58,903 --> 01:29:01,030
I need a good night's rest.
988
01:29:05,618 --> 01:29:07,453
Yeah, you're right.
989
01:29:09,163 --> 01:29:13,376
I'll hit the hay in the other room.
You go on and go to bed.
990
01:29:14,210 --> 01:29:15,670
Good night.
991
01:29:22,009 --> 01:29:24,428
Good luck with the club, Marty.
992
01:29:26,138 --> 01:29:28,766
Don't say it like you're a stranger.
993
01:29:46,576 --> 01:29:48,911
Here's the layout, Mr. Snyder.
994
01:29:51,873 --> 01:29:54,208
Here. Yeah, look.
995
01:29:54,292 --> 01:29:57,920
In the middle,
MS with a wreath, you know?
996
01:29:58,004 --> 01:30:00,965
- And green and gold.
- Yes, sir.
997
01:30:01,048 --> 01:30:05,303
How do you like that for a name, Barney?
MS Club. Marty Snyder. Get it?
998
01:30:05,386 --> 01:30:09,264
Yeah, I got it. Look, Marty,
I still think you're making a mistake...
999
01:30:09,347 --> 01:30:11,266
about Frankie Desirio and his orchestra.
1000
01:30:11,349 --> 01:30:15,103
- They're gonna cost you a fortune.
- Book them. Don't give me no headaches.
1001
01:30:15,187 --> 01:30:17,189
- You the waiters?
- Yes, sir.
1002
01:30:17,272 --> 01:30:19,483
Okay, don't get excited. Wait.
1003
01:30:21,902 --> 01:30:24,070
All right, come on, girls.
1004
01:30:24,654 --> 01:30:25,989
Come on.
1005
01:30:26,448 --> 01:30:28,325
Come on, get them up.
1006
01:30:28,408 --> 01:30:32,037
All right, you, you, and you.
The rest of you can blow.
1007
01:30:32,120 --> 01:30:34,414
You three, I want you
to remember something.
1008
01:30:34,498 --> 01:30:37,667
This is strictly legit.
You ain't selling nothing but cigarettes.
1009
01:30:37,751 --> 01:30:40,837
Back tomorrow morning at 10:00
for a fitting.
1010
01:30:41,171 --> 01:30:43,548
Barney, you get over to the studio?
1011
01:30:43,632 --> 01:30:45,133
- Sure.
- See Ruth?
1012
01:30:45,217 --> 01:30:47,552
- Yeah.
- She's coming over. We're having dinner.
1013
01:30:47,636 --> 01:30:51,473
You know, we've been so busy lately,
we've hardly seen each other.
1014
01:30:51,556 --> 01:30:53,141
How was she? In a good mood?
1015
01:30:53,225 --> 01:30:56,144
Sure. This picture's been
a real shot in the arm for her.
1016
01:30:56,228 --> 01:30:58,146
Never saw such a change in a girl.
1017
01:30:58,230 --> 01:31:01,608
- She listens to me, she don't go wrong.
- Hi, Marty.
1018
01:31:02,317 --> 01:31:05,070
- Where's Ruth?
- She had to work again.
1019
01:31:05,153 --> 01:31:08,448
She didn't have no call for tonight.
What are they trying to pull?
1020
01:31:08,532 --> 01:31:10,492
Marty, this happens all the time.
1021
01:31:10,575 --> 01:31:15,413
They find out a recording stage is free
or something. It's just routine.
1022
01:31:17,165 --> 01:31:18,834
Yeah, sure, Barney.
1023
01:31:18,917 --> 01:31:22,045
I know you're anxious to get home.
I won't need you no more.
1024
01:31:22,128 --> 01:31:25,048
- Okay. Good night.
- Good night, Barney.
1025
01:31:28,635 --> 01:31:32,013
How do they act together, them two?
Ruthie and the piano player?
1026
01:31:32,097 --> 01:31:35,433
I watched, just like you told me.
There's nothing to watch.
1027
01:31:35,517 --> 01:31:37,894
She's more friendly with lots of them
than him:
1028
01:31:37,978 --> 01:31:40,272
the wardrobe girl, the make-up man...
1029
01:31:40,355 --> 01:31:43,775
an old geezer, "a grip," they call him.
Him, she's always talking to.
1030
01:31:43,859 --> 01:31:45,735
But Johnny, nothing.
1031
01:31:53,367 --> 01:31:55,744
24-04, Take 3.
1032
01:34:22,056 --> 01:34:24,434
24-04, Take 3.
1033
01:34:27,145 --> 01:34:28,438
Okay?
1034
01:34:29,939 --> 01:34:31,316
All right.
1035
01:34:41,117 --> 01:34:42,660
You dumb jerk!
1036
01:34:50,001 --> 01:34:53,463
I could've sung all night, Johnny.
It was a good session, wasn't it?
1037
01:34:53,546 --> 01:34:58,092
- You were great and you know it.
- Thank you.
1038
01:35:00,678 --> 01:35:03,223
I am getting some help
from the score and conductor.
1039
01:35:03,306 --> 01:35:06,476
- Thank you.
- You're doing a wonderful job.
1040
01:35:06,559 --> 01:35:10,396
I know. I can't understand it.
I'm usually not this good.
1041
01:35:12,899 --> 01:35:14,692
Good night, Johnny.
1042
01:35:24,284 --> 01:35:25,953
- Hello, Ruth.
- Hello, Mr. Hunter.
1043
01:35:26,036 --> 01:35:27,996
- All through for the night?
- Just finished.
1044
01:35:28,080 --> 01:35:30,791
I've heard all the recordings so far.
They're beautiful.
1045
01:35:30,874 --> 01:35:32,209
- Thank you.
- Just beautiful.
1046
01:35:32,292 --> 01:35:33,877
I'm delighted.
1047
01:35:36,255 --> 01:35:37,923
Mr. Snyder just dropped in on me.
1048
01:35:38,006 --> 01:35:41,134
He tells me that you're dissatisfied
with Johnny Alderman.
1049
01:35:41,218 --> 01:35:42,553
I'm not.
1050
01:35:42,636 --> 01:35:44,930
That you want me
to take him off the picture.
1051
01:35:45,013 --> 01:35:46,390
That's not true.
1052
01:35:46,473 --> 01:35:49,476
He said that either Johnny goes,
or you go.
1053
01:35:53,147 --> 01:35:56,024
I can't fire a man for no reason, Ruth.
1054
01:35:57,401 --> 01:36:00,362
I'll be here in the morning, Mr. Hunter.
Don't worry.
1055
01:36:00,445 --> 01:36:02,906
- There won't be any problems.
- Good.
1056
01:36:02,990 --> 01:36:05,367
- Good night.
- Good night, Ruth.
1057
01:36:06,118 --> 01:36:09,413
You said you would finish tonight,
and that's how it's gonna be!
1058
01:36:09,496 --> 01:36:12,624
I don't care if it is double time!
Get it done!
1059
01:36:19,047 --> 01:36:21,175
Why did you lie to Hunter?
1060
01:36:21,800 --> 01:36:25,304
- All in an uproar?
- He's staying on the picture, Marty.
1061
01:36:25,387 --> 01:36:28,432
Fine, then they're pulling you off.
Hey, buster...
1062
01:36:28,515 --> 01:36:31,310
Have you gone crazy?
Are you out of your mind?
1063
01:36:31,393 --> 01:36:35,314
What have you got against him?
What has he done to you? Why?
1064
01:36:35,397 --> 01:36:37,691
You're going off, and that's that.
1065
01:36:37,774 --> 01:36:40,944
Marty, listen to me, please.
This is important.
1066
01:36:41,028 --> 01:36:43,614
Don't do this. Don't spoil this picture.
1067
01:36:43,697 --> 01:36:47,743
It's the first thing I've cared about
since New York and I don't want to lose it.
1068
01:36:47,826 --> 01:36:51,622
I have to work, do you understand?
I've got to. It's all I've got.
1069
01:36:51,705 --> 01:36:53,957
Shut up! You're gonna work.
Who said different?
1070
01:36:54,041 --> 01:36:58,003
Only where I can keep an eye on you,
so you don't get so many ideas, get so big.
1071
01:36:58,086 --> 01:37:00,589
You're gonna work here.
You're gonna open this joint.
1072
01:37:00,672 --> 01:37:05,344
And there's gonna be a sign:
"Martin Snyder presents Ruth Etting. "
1073
01:37:05,636 --> 01:37:08,012
That way, everybody'll know who's boss.
1074
01:37:08,095 --> 01:37:10,723
Like you know. Like you better know...
1075
01:37:11,140 --> 01:37:14,769
no matter how much you scream
and holler and carry on.
1076
01:37:15,520 --> 01:37:17,605
What's the matter, Marty?
1077
01:37:18,064 --> 01:37:20,733
Are you afraid you're losing your grip?
1078
01:37:26,656 --> 01:37:28,449
You come back here!
1079
01:37:32,286 --> 01:37:34,914
What are you gaping at? Get to work!
1080
01:37:43,172 --> 01:37:45,424
Ruthie! Get the car!
1081
01:38:39,687 --> 01:38:41,481
No, she's not here.
1082
01:38:42,440 --> 01:38:45,401
What's the matter, Marty?
Did she run away?
1083
01:38:46,903 --> 01:38:51,032
Keep away from her. If I catch you
hanging around her, I'll kill you.
1084
01:38:51,115 --> 01:38:53,408
She has to walk out on you herself.
1085
01:38:53,492 --> 01:38:56,870
If she ever gets the guts to do it,
I will be hanging around.
1086
01:38:56,953 --> 01:39:00,040
I'm just telling you
so you'll know where to find me.
1087
01:39:12,177 --> 01:39:14,221
- Where now, Marty?
- Home.
1088
01:39:14,304 --> 01:39:15,972
I'm gonna get my rest.
1089
01:39:16,556 --> 01:39:21,019
She's the one putting on a big act,
let her be the one that don't sleep.
1090
01:39:21,978 --> 01:39:25,941
You say there's nobody registered there
that looks like that?
1091
01:39:26,191 --> 01:39:27,734
Are you sure?
1092
01:39:29,194 --> 01:39:31,613
What time did you come on duty?
1093
01:39:33,365 --> 01:39:36,326
All right, keep your shirt on.
1094
01:39:40,205 --> 01:39:43,333
Marty, why don't you lay down awhile?
1095
01:39:43,416 --> 01:39:46,920
She's gotta be someplace.
What's she doing this for?
1096
01:39:51,716 --> 01:39:54,719
Hello? Hello, Ruthie? What...
1097
01:39:58,557 --> 01:40:00,433
What did you say, miss?
1098
01:40:03,854 --> 01:40:06,398
All right, I'll be there.
1099
01:40:11,611 --> 01:40:13,280
Barney's office.
1100
01:40:16,324 --> 01:40:19,077
She wants to meet me there in an hour.
1101
01:40:19,870 --> 01:40:23,498
Marty, why don't you take a shower?
I guarantee you'll feel better.
1102
01:40:23,582 --> 01:40:26,877
You know, you always feel better
after a shower.
1103
01:40:28,003 --> 01:40:29,963
You got a lot of time.
1104
01:40:40,222 --> 01:40:43,350
Where you been?
Why a meeting all of a sudden? Why here?
1105
01:40:43,434 --> 01:40:46,020
If we got something to straighten out,
it's between us.
1106
01:40:46,103 --> 01:40:48,230
Why drag Barney into it?
1107
01:40:48,481 --> 01:40:51,066
- Because he's a good friend of both of us.
- So?
1108
01:40:51,150 --> 01:40:53,986
You can have anything you want,
any kind of settlement.
1109
01:40:54,069 --> 01:40:55,404
What're you talking about?
1110
01:40:55,488 --> 01:40:57,531
- I want a divorce.
- What?
1111
01:40:57,615 --> 01:41:01,285
- We've got to put an end to this!
- What do you mean, put an end to it?
1112
01:41:01,368 --> 01:41:03,370
How can you put an end
to a thing like this?
1113
01:41:03,454 --> 01:41:06,373
We have to. It isn't worth living this way.
It hasn't been.
1114
01:41:06,457 --> 01:41:08,417
You think you can stand there
and tell me...
1115
01:41:08,501 --> 01:41:09,835
I can't anymore.
1116
01:41:09,919 --> 01:41:13,088
Look, Marty,
she can't help the way she feels.
1117
01:41:21,931 --> 01:41:24,058
What a way to wind it up.
1118
01:41:24,683 --> 01:41:29,647
A girl, a secretary calls you on the phone
and tells you you've got an appointment.
1119
01:41:30,356 --> 01:41:34,276
I've tried. You know I've tried,
but I can't go on any longer.
1120
01:41:34,360 --> 01:41:38,531
- What's the use if we're both miserable?
- It's that guy, ain't it?
1121
01:41:38,614 --> 01:41:39,949
- No!
- Yeah!
1122
01:41:40,032 --> 01:41:42,159
I was on the stage last night.
I ain't Georgie.
1123
01:41:42,243 --> 01:41:44,119
I've seen your face when you look at him.
1124
01:41:44,203 --> 01:41:47,248
Right from Chicago
you been two-timing me, the both of you.
1125
01:41:47,331 --> 01:41:50,000
- That's not true!
- It is true!
1126
01:41:50,084 --> 01:41:52,044
It's been him all the time, ain't it?
1127
01:41:52,127 --> 01:41:55,965
No, it's you! It's because of you!
1128
01:42:08,227 --> 01:42:09,520
All right.
1129
01:42:11,897 --> 01:42:14,525
You want to call it a day? Fine.
1130
01:42:15,734 --> 01:42:18,028
Get a lawyer. Get it started.
1131
01:42:18,237 --> 01:42:21,323
Anything you say.
Anything to make you happy.
1132
01:42:24,951 --> 01:42:27,829
I did an awful lot for that girl.
She don't realize.
1133
01:42:27,912 --> 01:42:29,998
- Isn't that right, Barney?
- That's right.
1134
01:42:30,081 --> 01:42:32,667
You can tell the truth.
You can level with both of us.
1135
01:42:32,750 --> 01:42:36,171
Didn't I do wonders for her?
The contracts I got her.
1136
01:42:36,254 --> 01:42:39,007
All right, so I couldn't handle everyone
with kid gloves.
1137
01:42:39,090 --> 01:42:42,093
But it's push or get pushed.
You see what I mean, Barney?
1138
01:42:42,177 --> 01:42:45,096
Sure, I understand.
Now go home and get some rest.
1139
01:42:45,180 --> 01:42:47,932
We'll talk later. You're all keyed up.
1140
01:42:50,310 --> 01:42:52,687
Maybe this is the best thing
that could happen.
1141
01:42:52,770 --> 01:42:56,191
I mean that serious. Let her see
how she gets along without me.
1142
01:42:56,274 --> 01:42:59,569
If she does, fine.
You won't hear one squawk out of me.
1143
01:42:59,652 --> 01:43:04,282
But she'll come running back so fast,
believe me, it won't even be funny.
1144
01:43:04,741 --> 01:43:06,868
Well, I gotta go.
1145
01:43:09,579 --> 01:43:11,372
I got things to do.
1146
01:43:12,081 --> 01:43:13,708
Thanks, Barney.
1147
01:43:17,587 --> 01:43:19,464
What happened? What did she want?
1148
01:43:19,547 --> 01:43:22,509
Nothing. You know how they are.
They get notions.
1149
01:43:22,592 --> 01:43:25,595
- Splitting up?
- Splitting up? That's crazy.
1150
01:43:25,678 --> 01:43:28,807
- She'd be lost without me.
- Sure. It figures.
1151
01:43:29,307 --> 01:43:32,560
- Where are we going now?
- To the club, where else?
1152
01:43:32,644 --> 01:43:36,689
You think I'm going to let things fall apart
just 'cause she gets a notion?
1153
01:43:36,773 --> 01:43:40,401
You're funny, no kidding.
Look at you. The puss on you.
1154
01:43:41,277 --> 01:43:43,029
You're tired, Georgie.
1155
01:43:43,112 --> 01:43:45,573
I've been taking advantage,
running your feet off.
1156
01:43:45,657 --> 01:43:47,492
No, I ain't tired.
1157
01:43:48,076 --> 01:43:50,703
You know,
what most people don't appreciate...
1158
01:43:50,787 --> 01:43:52,539
it's a tough business, show business.
1159
01:43:52,622 --> 01:43:55,375
You gotta have somebody tough
on your side.
1160
01:43:55,458 --> 01:43:59,587
She'll come running back.
It's a foregone thing, that's what it is.
1161
01:43:59,671 --> 01:44:01,381
A foregone thing.
1162
01:44:06,302 --> 01:44:07,846
A little faster. Roll them.
1163
01:44:08,388 --> 01:44:10,639
- Speed.
- Playback.
1164
01:44:47,217 --> 01:44:50,220
All right, cut! Hold the playback.
1165
01:44:53,974 --> 01:44:57,227
You'll have to step down.
We have some mechanical difficulty.
1166
01:44:57,311 --> 01:44:58,854
Help her down, Tony.
1167
01:45:01,690 --> 01:45:04,067
- Thank you.
- Very nice, darling.
1168
01:45:04,693 --> 01:45:05,861
Joe!
1169
01:45:08,906 --> 01:45:12,284
Are you all right? He came
to my place last night looking for you.
1170
01:45:12,367 --> 01:45:14,995
- What happened?
- It has nothing to do with you.
1171
01:45:15,078 --> 01:45:19,583
- Have you left him? Have you?
- Please, it isn't any of your business.
1172
01:45:20,584 --> 01:45:24,796
That's a lie. He knows it, if you don't.
Have you left him, Ruth? I've got to know.
1173
01:45:24,880 --> 01:45:27,299
Yes, I've left him.
It doesn't make any difference.
1174
01:45:27,382 --> 01:45:30,219
You've got to stay away from me, please.
1175
01:45:49,696 --> 01:45:52,115
- Did you see her?
- They wouldn't let me in.
1176
01:45:52,199 --> 01:45:54,867
I know she's there.
They been shooting two days already.
1177
01:45:54,951 --> 01:45:58,538
What's the matter with you?
Why didn't you barge in through the gate?
1178
01:45:58,621 --> 01:46:01,082
I did, Marty. They threw me out.
1179
01:46:05,086 --> 01:46:07,964
You know what?
I ran into Barney Loomis at the studio.
1180
01:46:08,047 --> 01:46:10,967
He says the musicians' union,
unless you get some dough up...
1181
01:46:11,050 --> 01:46:13,553
they won't let the band open.
He's gotta talk to you.
1182
01:46:13,636 --> 01:46:15,805
He'll talk to me when I talk to him later.
1183
01:46:15,888 --> 01:46:18,015
Everybody telling me all the time
what to do.
1184
01:46:18,099 --> 01:46:21,894
Marty, listen, we've been pals a long time.
1185
01:46:21,978 --> 01:46:24,355
Since we were kids, practically.
1186
01:46:24,438 --> 01:46:27,859
It ain't Ruth's fault.
It's him, that piano player.
1187
01:46:28,317 --> 01:46:30,111
He's got an influence on her.
1188
01:46:30,194 --> 01:46:33,698
If it's him, or if it ain't him,
what's the difference? It's all done.
1189
01:46:33,781 --> 01:46:37,743
Can't you forget about her?
We got a club to open here in three days.
1190
01:46:37,827 --> 01:46:40,997
All the dough you got in the world
is tied up in this joint.
1191
01:46:41,080 --> 01:46:44,375
- Marty, I tell you the truth, I worry.
- That's the bunk.
1192
01:46:44,458 --> 01:46:47,044
- I'll take care of you. Didn't I always?
- Yeah, only...
1193
01:46:47,128 --> 01:46:48,880
- Only what?
- Mr. Snyder...
1194
01:46:48,963 --> 01:46:52,133
you want to look at the initials
on the drapes before I hang them?
1195
01:46:52,216 --> 01:46:55,303
You're paid to put them up! Put them up!
Don't ask me so much!
1196
01:46:55,386 --> 01:46:56,971
He's in his office, if you want to...
1197
01:46:57,054 --> 01:46:59,724
Later, I said! Let me alone, will you?
1198
01:47:01,767 --> 01:47:04,353
Go away! Like flies. Like leeches!
1199
01:47:04,687 --> 01:47:07,440
My own place, they can't let me alone.
1200
01:47:11,527 --> 01:47:13,279
Sure, I can forget.
1201
01:47:14,947 --> 01:47:19,243
People die. People go away.
Once it's finished...
1202
01:47:19,660 --> 01:47:23,414
you don't go around
knocking yourself against a stone wall.
1203
01:47:23,998 --> 01:47:25,791
Once it's finished.
1204
01:47:37,887 --> 01:47:39,222
Hello.
1205
01:47:42,474 --> 01:47:45,101
Where have you been the last few days?
1206
01:47:45,769 --> 01:47:49,981
- You said you didn't want to see me.
- I know I did...
1207
01:47:50,315 --> 01:47:53,401
but I didn't think
you'd stop coming to the set.
1208
01:47:53,485 --> 01:47:56,196
With so many people around
and everything...
1209
01:47:56,279 --> 01:47:58,865
there's no harm in that, is there?
1210
01:47:59,783 --> 01:48:02,160
There's not much point, either.
1211
01:48:05,413 --> 01:48:06,832
I'm sorry.
1212
01:48:08,083 --> 01:48:10,126
- Is this car for you?
- Yes.
1213
01:48:10,210 --> 01:48:12,254
Cancel it. Let me drive you home.
1214
01:48:12,337 --> 01:48:14,589
Look, darling,
I just talked with Barney Loomis.
1215
01:48:14,673 --> 01:48:17,634
He says Marty's taking this thing
a lot better than you are.
1216
01:48:17,717 --> 01:48:19,427
Wait a minute. Let me finish.
1217
01:48:19,511 --> 01:48:22,222
I'm not asking you
to change your mind about anything.
1218
01:48:22,305 --> 01:48:25,100
All I'm asking is let me drive you home.
1219
01:48:25,684 --> 01:48:28,478
But I can't. I can't take the chance.
1220
01:48:32,357 --> 01:48:34,609
- Good night.
- Please, Johnny.
1221
01:48:38,446 --> 01:48:41,700
For what it's worth, I love you.
1222
01:49:03,889 --> 01:49:06,600
- Good night, Miss Etting.
- Good night.
1223
01:49:25,202 --> 01:49:26,952
Johnny, what are you doing here?
1224
01:49:27,036 --> 01:49:30,247
Darling, after what you said back there...
1225
01:49:42,510 --> 01:49:43,928
Good night.
1226
01:49:48,641 --> 01:49:50,476
Good night, darling.
1227
01:50:17,670 --> 01:50:19,672
He had it coming to him.
1228
01:50:19,755 --> 01:50:23,217
I told him I was gonna let him have it.
1229
01:50:23,676 --> 01:50:27,096
I couldn't back down.
You know what I mean, Ruthie?
1230
01:50:36,397 --> 01:50:38,482
You've been up all night?
1231
01:50:41,235 --> 01:50:43,112
And you're all right.
1232
01:50:45,698 --> 01:50:47,700
No matter how you feel.
1233
01:50:48,492 --> 01:50:50,828
I feel tired.
1234
01:50:52,329 --> 01:50:55,249
Exactly as if I was shot.
1235
01:50:56,750 --> 01:51:01,380
But if you tell me you love me,
I'll go to sleep.
1236
01:51:02,882 --> 01:51:04,300
I love you.
1237
01:51:04,925 --> 01:51:07,470
I'll be telling you for the rest of my life.
1238
01:51:07,553 --> 01:51:10,222
You'll get awfully tired of hearing it.
1239
01:51:11,264 --> 01:51:12,807
You wanna bet?
1240
01:51:38,249 --> 01:51:39,709
How is he?
1241
01:51:40,043 --> 01:51:43,463
Ruth, there are still
some photographers downstairs.
1242
01:51:43,546 --> 01:51:45,507
- Can you take it?
- Yes.
1243
01:51:49,010 --> 01:51:51,429
Barney, what's going to happen
with Marty?
1244
01:51:51,513 --> 01:51:55,558
He'll probably get out on bail,
then he'll have to stand trial.
1245
01:51:55,642 --> 01:51:59,020
- But what about his club?
- It won't open, it can't.
1246
01:51:59,103 --> 01:52:01,856
It was touch-and-go
about the money, anyway.
1247
01:52:01,940 --> 01:52:04,901
After this, there's not a chance
he can get it.
1248
01:52:04,984 --> 01:52:08,112
Don't you start feeling sorry for him.
1249
01:52:08,196 --> 01:52:11,199
- Aren't you?
- Yes, I am.
1250
01:52:11,282 --> 01:52:14,577
I'd help him if I could, but I can't.
Nobody can.
1251
01:52:14,994 --> 01:52:18,122
And you're the one person in the world
who mustn't even try.
1252
01:52:18,206 --> 01:52:19,457
Why not?
1253
01:52:19,541 --> 01:52:22,669
- There are a thousand...
- He gave me a big chunk of his life.
1254
01:52:22,752 --> 01:52:27,465
It doesn't matter that I didn't want it.
But the point is he gave it, and I took it.
1255
01:52:27,549 --> 01:52:31,302
I can't walk away when he's in trouble
as if it weren't any of my business.
1256
01:52:31,386 --> 01:52:33,805
- Wait a minute.
- Too much of it is my fault.
1257
01:52:33,888 --> 01:52:35,890
- That's ridiculous.
- I mean it.
1258
01:52:35,974 --> 01:52:38,560
Barney, I didn't leave him with anything.
1259
01:52:38,643 --> 01:52:41,396
With any pride, self-respect, nothing.
1260
01:52:42,438 --> 01:52:46,943
I've got to see him.
Barney, you have to fix it for me. Please.
1261
01:52:51,948 --> 01:52:54,200
You're making a big mistake.
1262
01:52:54,659 --> 01:52:58,036
I've made so many,
one more won't make any difference.
1263
01:53:01,081 --> 01:53:03,000
- Sit down, please.
- Thank you.
1264
01:53:07,463 --> 01:53:09,047
Martin Snyder.
1265
01:53:47,544 --> 01:53:49,505
Something on your mind?
1266
01:53:49,588 --> 01:53:53,550
I don't know if they've told you or not,
but he's going to be all right.
1267
01:53:53,634 --> 01:53:55,719
That should make it easier for you.
1268
01:53:55,803 --> 01:53:59,389
I ain't worried.
Had to learn him a lesson, and I did.
1269
01:53:59,807 --> 01:54:02,309
I guess he thought I was bluffing.
1270
01:54:03,143 --> 01:54:07,564
A whole lot of people had me all wrong.
But I guess they're all wised up now.
1271
01:54:07,648 --> 01:54:10,901
I've never been the kind of guy
that lets nobody double-cross him.
1272
01:54:10,984 --> 01:54:13,028
No one double-crossed you, Marty.
1273
01:54:13,111 --> 01:54:17,032
I've never said one word to Johnny
that you couldn't have heard.
1274
01:54:17,115 --> 01:54:18,700
Just good pals?
1275
01:54:20,494 --> 01:54:23,038
No, not anymore.
1276
01:54:24,414 --> 01:54:25,874
I love him.
1277
01:54:27,042 --> 01:54:29,253
And I'm going to marry him.
1278
01:54:31,588 --> 01:54:35,008
Is that what you come to tell me?
Okay, you told me.
1279
01:54:35,092 --> 01:54:37,928
Please, Marty. There is something else.
1280
01:54:39,096 --> 01:54:42,515
That day in Barney's office,
we were both so upset...
1281
01:54:42,598 --> 01:54:45,726
that I couldn't really say what I wanted to.
1282
01:54:47,979 --> 01:54:51,440
You did just fine. You said plenty.
1283
01:54:53,693 --> 01:54:56,779
But I didn't get to say thank you
for all the nice things...
1284
01:54:56,863 --> 01:55:00,074
for all the good things
that you've done for me.
1285
01:55:02,702 --> 01:55:06,164
Who're you kidding, Ruthie?
Who're you trying to butter up?
1286
01:55:06,247 --> 01:55:07,915
What's the matter, kiddo? Scared?
1287
01:55:07,999 --> 01:55:11,544
You afraid I'll get out of here
and take another shot at your boyfriend?
1288
01:55:11,627 --> 01:55:14,130
- Please, listen to me.
- No, you listen to me.
1289
01:55:14,213 --> 01:55:17,467
I'll be sprung, I'll get out of here,
and I'll beat this rap.
1290
01:55:17,550 --> 01:55:20,428
You think I'm through?
You don't know me.
1291
01:55:20,511 --> 01:55:24,265
There's one thing I am through with: you.
1292
01:55:25,808 --> 01:55:30,062
You ain't got a thing to worry about.
I don't want no part of you.
1293
01:55:36,486 --> 01:55:39,697
What are you sitting there
like a wooden Indian? Go on, beat it.
1294
01:55:39,780 --> 01:55:43,034
Go on back to your piano player.
He can have you.
1295
01:55:43,493 --> 01:55:46,162
Tell him you seen me in the pokey
and I look great.
1296
01:55:46,245 --> 01:55:49,874
Tell him I like it.
Makes me feel like I'm a kid again.
1297
01:56:13,397 --> 01:56:15,900
You ain't told me yet who put up the bail?
1298
01:56:15,983 --> 01:56:18,528
What's the matter?
All of a sudden you're such a clam.
1299
01:56:18,611 --> 01:56:21,447
I didn't have a chance
with all those reporters.
1300
01:56:21,531 --> 01:56:23,908
Barney Loomis, he put it up for you.
1301
01:56:23,991 --> 01:56:26,660
If he's such a pal,
why didn't he come with you?
1302
01:56:26,743 --> 01:56:29,204
I don't know. Maybe he was busy.
1303
01:56:29,830 --> 01:56:33,125
Word goes out a guy's broke,
everybody gets busy.
1304
01:56:34,084 --> 01:56:36,586
- He put the dough up, didn't he?
- He'll get it back.
1305
01:56:36,670 --> 01:56:38,672
Yeah, but he put it up.
1306
01:56:40,173 --> 01:56:42,551
Yeah. He ain't such a bad guy.
1307
01:56:45,345 --> 01:56:46,930
This ain't the way home.
1308
01:56:47,013 --> 01:56:50,267
I thought maybe we'd drop by the club
for a minute.
1309
01:56:51,768 --> 01:56:54,396
Why do I want to
give myself the blues for?
1310
01:56:54,479 --> 01:56:56,690
Couple of things you ought to look at.
1311
01:56:56,773 --> 01:56:59,234
Forget it. I wanna get a shower.
1312
01:57:00,277 --> 01:57:02,654
They don't keep things so dainty
in that clink.
1313
01:57:02,737 --> 01:57:05,657
- Go on home.
- Yeah, Marty. Just a minute.
1314
01:57:24,593 --> 01:57:27,512
- I'll throw her out.
- Marty, stop. Please!
1315
01:57:30,223 --> 01:57:32,684
- Let go!
- Wait a minute.
1316
01:57:32,767 --> 01:57:34,936
There are reporters
and photographers in there.
1317
01:57:35,020 --> 01:57:38,023
I don't care who's in there.
I'll pull her off the bandstand.
1318
01:57:38,106 --> 01:57:41,234
- I don't need a bag of peanuts or handouts.
- Listen to me!
1319
01:57:41,318 --> 01:57:44,738
This is not a handout!
You did a lot for Ruth in the old days.
1320
01:57:44,821 --> 01:57:47,991
She knows it, she's grateful,
and she's got a right to pay it back.
1321
01:57:48,074 --> 01:57:51,244
And you've got to be big enough to take it.
1322
01:57:51,328 --> 01:57:53,246
That's the guy that shot the guy!
1323
01:57:56,625 --> 01:57:59,753
- Over here!
- Give me your autograph, will you?
1324
01:58:03,757 --> 01:58:05,801
Break it up. Go home, come on.
1325
01:58:07,427 --> 01:58:10,806
- Looks like you got a good thing going.
- Yeah, sure.
1326
01:58:11,890 --> 01:58:13,724
- You mean the club?
- Yeah.
1327
01:58:13,808 --> 01:58:15,267
Take a look. It's packed.
1328
01:58:15,351 --> 01:58:18,521
Never been more than four people
in here before.
1329
01:58:18,604 --> 01:58:20,022
I guess you're right.
1330
01:58:20,105 --> 01:58:22,316
Mr. Snyder,
can I get some backstage shots?
1331
01:58:22,399 --> 01:58:26,195
Mr. Loomis said that
you're the only one that can okay it.
1332
01:58:26,946 --> 01:58:29,240
Yeah. Sure, why not?
1333
01:58:30,032 --> 01:58:32,993
Only not during the floor show.
That's one of my rules.
1334
01:58:33,077 --> 01:58:34,787
- Thanks a lot.
- Think nothing of it.
1335
01:58:34,870 --> 01:58:37,540
- What'd you do to the place? Looks great.
- Pretty nifty.
1336
01:58:37,623 --> 01:58:39,500
Who'd you get in? A bunch of decorators?
1337
01:58:39,583 --> 01:58:42,837
- I got myself in, that's who.
- You think you've broken the jinx?
1338
01:58:42,920 --> 01:58:44,839
There was never no jinx on this spot.
1339
01:58:44,922 --> 01:58:48,467
- Just a lot of jerks running it, that's all.
- You got big plans for it?
1340
01:58:48,551 --> 01:58:51,929
When I get through, you'll need
a reservation a month in advance.
1341
01:58:52,012 --> 01:58:54,306
Then you're counting on
keeping it running?
1342
01:58:54,390 --> 01:58:57,476
Through thick and thin,
no matter what happens at my trial.
1343
01:58:57,560 --> 01:59:00,896
That's just in case
you're being too polite to ask.
1344
01:59:03,274 --> 01:59:06,152
Does Miss Etting's appearance
here tonight...
1345
01:59:06,235 --> 01:59:08,529
mean you two are getting back together?
1346
01:59:08,612 --> 01:59:13,159
No. Miss Etting is just fulfilling
a contractual obligation.
1347
01:59:13,242 --> 01:59:18,289
You got that? A contractual obligation.
She'll be paid just like any other artist.
1348
01:59:18,372 --> 01:59:20,583
Kind of surprising,
in view of what's happened.
1349
01:59:20,666 --> 01:59:23,127
What's surprising about it?
Business is business.
1350
01:59:23,210 --> 01:59:24,587
You can put it down...
1351
01:59:24,670 --> 01:59:27,590
that I got the greatest respect
for Miss Etting as an artist.
1352
01:59:27,673 --> 01:59:30,384
Boys, step up to the bar
and have a drink on the house.
1353
01:59:30,468 --> 01:59:33,637
Georgie, see to it
my pals get everything they want.
1354
01:59:33,721 --> 01:59:35,264
Check your hats, please.
1355
01:59:35,681 --> 01:59:37,224
Good evening, Mr. Snyder.
1356
02:00:44,999 --> 02:00:48,419
You gotta give her credit.
The girl can sing.
1357
02:00:49,921 --> 02:00:52,715
About that, I never was wrong.
