Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:21,060
A beautiful city, New York.
2
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:25,420
Exciting, challenging, and an invitation
to people engaged in creative pursuits.
3
00:01:25,620 --> 00:01:27,740
The story we're about to tell you is a
true one.
4
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,020
It's the story of the making of a motion
picture.
5
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:35,140
In this handsome house in the exclusive
East 60s, three men met some months ago
6
00:01:35,140 --> 00:01:36,119
to plan a film.
7
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:39,040
At the conference were the writer, the
producer, and the director.
8
00:01:39,660 --> 00:01:43,080
I'll tell you, boys, somehow I got a
feeling this will be a good picture.
9
00:01:43,660 --> 00:01:46,380
Eddie and I went over the whole story
together, Joe.
10
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:48,640
We changed a few things here and there.
11
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:50,660
When do you want to get this picture
done, Joe?
12
00:01:51,020 --> 00:01:53,440
Are we going to be rushed or is it going
to be like Hollywood, sitting around a
13
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:54,440
pool for six months?
14
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:55,680
Six months?
15
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:57,580
Look, Bobby, you're lucky you get six
weeks.
16
00:01:57,940 --> 00:02:00,740
But, Joe, are we all set on the leading
characters of the film?
17
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:07,000
I mean, do we all agree on who they are,
what they are, what they do, and so on?
18
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:08,920
I'll tell you what we'll do.
19
00:02:09,419 --> 00:02:11,340
Let's get a character profile of our
leading people.
20
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:17,040
First, our lead, Liz Adams, a
dark-haired, beautiful girl.
21
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,380
She's come to New York hoping for a big
chance in the theater.
22
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,940
The part of Liz Adams is played by Lana
Lynn, the exciting young actress who's
23
00:02:24,940 --> 00:02:28,700
appeared in many TV series, as well as
many motion pictures where her beauty
24
00:02:28,700 --> 00:02:29,700
was a great asset.
25
00:02:32,340 --> 00:02:36,480
Liz Adams finds that she becomes
involved most willingly with a horde of
26
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:40,860
men as she tries to move up from
hamburger stands to the luxuries which
27
00:02:40,860 --> 00:02:41,900
she feels she should have.
28
00:02:43,180 --> 00:02:46,420
Unfortunately for Liz, she's something
of an infomaniac.
29
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:51,520
She thinks of herself as an expert on
sex. When Liz touches a man or is about
30
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,260
to become involved with one, she can't
get enough of him.
31
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:59,100
For a girl trying to work her way up in
the theater, this can be a help or a
32
00:02:59,100 --> 00:03:00,900
hazard. Connie Mason.
33
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:02,460
Sweet, lovable.
34
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,360
The type of girl everyone would like to
come home to.
35
00:03:05,940 --> 00:03:08,120
She's a girl of fine figure and face.
36
00:03:08,820 --> 00:03:12,360
Playing the part of Connie Mason is that
well-known beauty queen from Texas, Miss
37
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:13,360
Rusty Allen.
38
00:03:14,100 --> 00:03:15,800
Connie Mason is a fine girl.
39
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,380
whose main goal in New York is to find
the future father of her children.
40
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:23,400
Connie goes to two kinds of parties, the
proud and the profane.
41
00:03:24,380 --> 00:03:27,520
As she walks down the street, men stop
to turn and stare.
42
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:31,420
They'd be surprised to know that she
likes nothing better than playing with
43
00:03:31,420 --> 00:03:33,080
children and listening to symphonies.
44
00:03:33,460 --> 00:03:36,060
Connie Mason, the ingenue of our film.
45
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:40,600
Barry Coleman, a bright, serious fellow
hoping to get ahead in the world.
46
00:03:41,500 --> 00:03:43,800
The part of Barry is played by Ken
Curtin.
47
00:03:44,190 --> 00:03:48,210
a young actor who's appeared in several
European films in roles requiring great
48
00:03:48,210 --> 00:03:50,210
range of expression and nuance of style.
49
00:03:51,950 --> 00:03:54,090
Baxter Standish, young actor and singer.
50
00:03:54,590 --> 00:03:58,090
In this film, the part of Baxter is that
of a lover as well as an actor.
51
00:03:58,590 --> 00:04:02,270
Anthony Ford, a young drama student,
plays this role with the authority of
52
00:04:02,270 --> 00:04:03,270
first-hand experience.
53
00:04:03,790 --> 00:04:07,630
In the film, Baxter is just one of the
many men drawn to Liz Adams.
54
00:04:07,910 --> 00:04:10,790
In her need for men, she does not turn
down their advances.
55
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:15,180
The men she gets involved with, like
Baxter, are those who function in the
56
00:04:15,180 --> 00:04:16,620
little world she's built for herself.
57
00:04:17,260 --> 00:04:21,300
The daily contact of flesh on flesh,
even though it's supposed to be make
58
00:04:21,300 --> 00:04:25,320
-believe, can cause suppressed passions
to boil to the surface, to expose
59
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,600
everyone around to the stirring effects
of morality gone wild.
60
00:04:29,260 --> 00:04:33,680
When Baxter and Liz touch, a spark
flashes, which is soon extinguished when
61
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,880
another man comes along and makes a new
rule in the game of love.
62
00:04:38,580 --> 00:04:41,460
Douglas Baines, director of the Leslie
Carter Theater.
63
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:45,280
Doug Baines is a man of great talent in
New York's theatrical world.
64
00:04:45,500 --> 00:04:47,460
One day, he'll be a top Broadway figure.
65
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,600
Right now, he's a ladies' man as well as
a fine director.
66
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:55,460
The part is played by John Lyon, also an
experienced actor whom Hollywood has
67
00:04:55,460 --> 00:04:56,460
beckoned several times.
68
00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,340
At the theater, Doug Baines is in a
position to meet hundreds of lovely
69
00:05:00,340 --> 00:05:03,020
girls, but this one really gets under
his skin.
70
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,180
He determines to find out all he can
about the girl.
71
00:05:06,510 --> 00:05:09,750
what her views of the theater are and
her views about life and love.
72
00:05:10,170 --> 00:05:13,670
She's such a delicious and delectable
creature, he can't keep his hands off
73
00:05:13,670 --> 00:05:15,490
her. And she doesn't want him to.
74
00:05:17,450 --> 00:05:21,790
Leslie Carter, millionaire, sportsman,
patron of the arts, is a man with the
75
00:05:21,790 --> 00:05:26,770
essential things in life. Money,
apartments, beach houses, girls, money,
76
00:05:26,970 --> 00:05:32,890
girls, girls, and even more money. He
works hard and he plays hard.
77
00:05:33,870 --> 00:05:37,510
The role is portrayed by Lonnie Maggio,
who's making his motion picture debut.
78
00:05:38,010 --> 00:05:40,310
Maggio is a throwback to the days of
Bogart.
79
00:05:40,550 --> 00:05:44,650
Women are important to Carter, and Liz
seems to give him a jolt whenever he
80
00:05:44,650 --> 00:05:48,830
looks at her. As the owner of the Leslie
Carter Theater, he can watch rehearsals
81
00:05:48,830 --> 00:05:49,830
whenever he wants to.
82
00:05:50,050 --> 00:05:54,150
From the first play kiss with Liz,
Carter knows that he wants this girl.
83
00:05:54,550 --> 00:05:58,770
The shrewdest, most cunning girl will
become a piece of putty at the sight of
84
00:05:58,770 --> 00:05:59,770
an overfed wallet.
85
00:06:00,870 --> 00:06:02,470
And so on with the story.
86
00:06:08,940 --> 00:06:12,100
Liz Adams has already laid her plans in
her mind.
87
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:16,120
It's the theater as the swiftest way to
money and influence.
88
00:06:50,260 --> 00:06:51,260
Yes?
89
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,240
Yes, this is Connie Jackson.
90
00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:01,700
Oh, it's a lovely apartment. It has air
conditioning and lots of nice touches.
91
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:05,360
Good, I'll see you then.
92
00:07:11,380 --> 00:07:14,060
Well, this is it. Hey, this is very
nice.
93
00:07:15,580 --> 00:07:16,580
I like it.
94
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:21,500
Can I see the rest of the apartment?
95
00:07:21,780 --> 00:07:22,780
Sure.
96
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,000
Don't look in my closet, though. It's a
mess.
97
00:07:27,260 --> 00:07:28,440
That's my shameful secret.
98
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:30,680
The kitchen's over this way.
99
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:37,420
Oh, an espresso machine.
100
00:07:37,860 --> 00:07:39,700
No, that's an old milk can. I think.
101
00:07:40,620 --> 00:07:42,060
Whatever it is, I think it's beautiful.
102
00:07:44,660 --> 00:07:46,260
Anyway, I'd better tell you about
myself.
103
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:48,820
Now, don't snore at night.
104
00:07:49,550 --> 00:07:52,690
And I don't even mess in the bathroom,
and I'm a pretty good cook. And if it's
105
00:07:52,690 --> 00:07:54,170
all right with you, I'd like to move in
today.
106
00:07:54,510 --> 00:07:55,510
Fine.
107
00:07:55,830 --> 00:07:57,070
Shake, roommate. Fine.
108
00:08:19,950 --> 00:08:21,530
A good omen of things to come.
109
00:08:22,050 --> 00:08:25,410
First day she tries to get a place and
this fine apartment turns up.
110
00:08:25,790 --> 00:08:27,790
Nice apartment, nice roommate.
111
00:08:28,490 --> 00:08:30,090
Now she can get down to business.
112
00:08:31,050 --> 00:08:34,830
Back to the apartment with just the
basic clothes a girl needs for the
113
00:08:34,830 --> 00:08:35,950
initial weeks in New York.
114
00:08:36,429 --> 00:08:40,630
Liz can't wait to start filling up her
closet with all the fine clothes which
115
00:08:40,630 --> 00:08:41,870
are available to pretty girls.
116
00:08:42,590 --> 00:08:45,810
Maybe if she's lucky, someone else will
pick up the tab.
117
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,300
But a girl has to rest before she runs.
118
00:08:52,140 --> 00:08:54,420
This Connie seems a swell kid to Liz.
119
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,520
She's even given her a whole closet for
herself.
120
00:08:58,340 --> 00:09:01,300
When a girl does that, why, you've found
a real jewel.
121
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:07,060
Liz realizes Connie could give her a run
for her money if they ever had eyes for
122
00:09:07,060 --> 00:09:07,979
the same man.
123
00:09:07,980 --> 00:09:09,600
But they'll work things out.
124
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,000
There are enough men to go around.
125
00:09:12,750 --> 00:09:17,610
Liz figures as long as Connie stays out
of her affairs, she'll do the same for
126
00:09:17,610 --> 00:09:20,530
Connie, and they'll be able to get along
great.
127
00:09:27,610 --> 00:09:31,970
Tonight, Liz gets to the bathtub first.
Before long, the girls will have to work
128
00:09:31,970 --> 00:09:32,990
out some kind of arrangement.
129
00:09:33,470 --> 00:09:37,130
And let's hope Liz washes the tub when
she's through with it. Connie likes
130
00:09:37,130 --> 00:09:41,150
rings, as any girl does, but on her
fingers, not in her bathtub.
131
00:09:43,050 --> 00:09:47,310
And as for stockings, it's okay to let
them dry in the bathroom, but Liz had
132
00:09:47,310 --> 00:09:49,750
better get them on her legs or in the
drawer when they're dry.
133
00:09:50,490 --> 00:09:53,670
Connie likes a ship-shaped living
arrangement, and there's no money for
134
00:09:53,670 --> 00:09:54,670
maid service.
135
00:09:57,610 --> 00:10:00,050
It's bright and early for the girls the
next morning.
136
00:10:02,430 --> 00:10:06,430
Connie's got a job to get to, and Liz
can't see any sense in wasting the sun.
137
00:10:07,870 --> 00:10:10,630
There's a whole new world waiting for
her out there.
138
00:10:12,990 --> 00:10:16,190
Thus far, the producer, the director,
and the writer have been able to begin
139
00:10:16,190 --> 00:10:17,190
their character outline.
140
00:10:19,470 --> 00:10:23,230
But it always happens that as you get
into the story, you have to take stock
141
00:10:23,230 --> 00:10:24,590
of what's happening to your characters.
142
00:10:26,490 --> 00:10:30,210
They knew that Connie was a beauty, they
knew she was a serious-minded girl, and
143
00:10:30,210 --> 00:10:33,870
they knew that she had a pretty good
job. But what kind of career should she
144
00:10:33,870 --> 00:10:34,870
have?
145
00:10:39,330 --> 00:10:41,830
There's a run on bikinis this season at
the showroom.
146
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,300
It gives the boys a chance to display
Connie's beautiful figure.
147
00:11:03,900 --> 00:11:07,360
Wait. Connie's our good girl. She should
be more covered up.
148
00:11:13,900 --> 00:11:15,460
People are more broad-minded today.
149
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,340
If it's an innocent situation as this
is, she could even be nude.
150
00:11:27,260 --> 00:11:31,120
Although, in effect, Connie was the
heroine of the story, the men found
151
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:32,660
themselves fascinated by Liz.
152
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,920
Men are always attracted by dangerous
women.
153
00:11:36,580 --> 00:11:40,320
Today, she's got some time to kill, so
she goes down to Greenwich Village.
154
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:45,280
This city within a city is a place of
many contrasts. By day, it's a simple
155
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,520
place where old women sun themselves and
children play in the parks.
156
00:11:49,260 --> 00:11:51,420
Liz is enchanted by the scene before
her.
157
00:11:51,700 --> 00:11:53,080
She's also a bit surprised.
158
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:57,960
Where are the so-called outcasts she's
heard so much about? By day, the people
159
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,320
she's looking for are probably sleeping
off the previous night's merriment.
160
00:12:01,540 --> 00:12:04,100
Liz marvels that this could really be
New York.
161
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:08,100
Innocent-looking kids running around
trying to escape the heat of the city.
162
00:12:08,460 --> 00:12:10,420
Old men playing chess and checkers.
163
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,580
She decides that she should have come to
New York much sooner.
164
00:12:13,860 --> 00:12:16,960
However, for a girl like Liz, enough
kids are enough.
165
00:12:17,460 --> 00:12:21,280
Now off for a pursuit of faster game, if
there's any to be found.
166
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,820
She instinctively seems to head for the
main artery of unrestricted village
167
00:12:25,820 --> 00:12:30,540
nightlife. Somehow girls like Liz have a
sixth sense for nosing out such places.
168
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:35,180
At night, this street explodes with the
gaiety of thousands of native villagers
169
00:12:35,180 --> 00:12:37,100
and accompanying tourist crowds.
170
00:12:37,710 --> 00:12:41,410
Wild scenes of merriment are likely to
be taking place at any one of these drab
171
00:12:41,410 --> 00:12:42,410
-looking buildings.
172
00:12:43,170 --> 00:12:46,970
Liz is somewhat exhausted by all the
walking, so she takes a cup of coffee
173
00:12:46,970 --> 00:12:50,410
and hopes in a way that some bearded
villager will pick her up.
174
00:12:50,750 --> 00:12:53,110
Coffee there, franks and orange drink
here.
175
00:12:53,630 --> 00:12:56,730
Liz is determined to see if she can
promote a little adventure today.
176
00:12:57,810 --> 00:13:00,590
This is all an intoxicating experience
for Liz.
177
00:13:00,830 --> 00:13:05,070
What a place, she thinks. Kids, culture
and sex, all in one neighborhood.
178
00:13:06,890 --> 00:13:09,410
Still haven't seen any
suspicious-looking people, she thinks.
179
00:13:09,510 --> 00:13:12,230
For a second, she wonders if the stories
are a lot of hot air.
180
00:13:12,970 --> 00:13:17,250
Today, on her first day in the village,
Liz is unaware that this is really just
181
00:13:17,250 --> 00:13:20,650
a small-town neighborhood, and the
straight people living and working here
182
00:13:20,650 --> 00:13:24,090
far outnumber the oddball who give the
village its sordid reputation.
183
00:13:25,050 --> 00:13:29,350
Still, she knows that down here is where
she's going to get her big chance when
184
00:13:29,350 --> 00:13:31,270
she goes to see the director the
following day.
185
00:13:32,010 --> 00:13:33,430
She knows that shortly...
186
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:37,260
A girl with her looks is going to be
swept into the full round of exciting
187
00:13:37,260 --> 00:13:38,340
and sensuous activities.
188
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:41,780
What about Barry?
189
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:43,360
Oh, you mean Cully's boyfriend?
190
00:13:44,220 --> 00:13:46,000
He's an up-and-coming young
photographer.
191
00:13:46,460 --> 00:13:47,500
Shoots still lives.
192
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:49,240
Maybe shoots girls.
193
00:13:56,180 --> 00:13:57,980
Now there's Barry now in his studio.
194
00:13:58,380 --> 00:14:01,660
Lots of professional equipment. Just the
thing to go far in this business.
195
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:07,520
Oh, that's a lovely young lady. She's
very nice. Oh, yes. I like her. Very
196
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,760
good. Well, what's she doing here? Isn't
she supposed to come in later in the
197
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:11,840
story? Get around.
198
00:14:15,820 --> 00:14:22,400
By now, the story was rolling along in
the minds of the men.
199
00:14:25,060 --> 00:14:28,940
They delineated their main characters,
Liz Adams, Connie Mason, her boyfriend
200
00:14:28,940 --> 00:14:29,940
Barry, and the others.
201
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:48,720
After a hard day under the bright studio
lights, it's really relaxing to take a
202
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:53,260
stroll with a beautiful girl into the
little food shops and wine stores, and a
203
00:14:53,260 --> 00:14:55,260
meal can be planned worthy of a French
chef.
204
00:14:55,980 --> 00:14:56,980
Connie's a good cook.
205
00:14:57,340 --> 00:14:59,420
After all, she's hoping to get married
someday.
206
00:14:59,960 --> 00:15:01,720
Maybe Barry will be the lucky guy.
207
00:15:03,340 --> 00:15:06,740
It's a pleasant surprise for Barry to
discover that he'll have dinner with two
208
00:15:06,740 --> 00:15:08,480
beautiful girls instead of only one.
209
00:15:20,330 --> 00:15:24,250
Liz likes what she sees in Barry, and
she knows her roommate won't mind if she
210
00:15:24,250 --> 00:15:25,430
does a little innocent flirting.
211
00:15:30,230 --> 00:15:31,290
What could happen?
212
00:15:31,630 --> 00:15:34,270
Connie's right there, and Liz hasn't
danced in ages.
213
00:15:45,230 --> 00:15:47,130
But girls are funny sometimes.
214
00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:51,620
An inch too close to her boyfriend, and
Connie's beginning to wonder about this
215
00:15:51,620 --> 00:15:52,620
new roommate of hers.
216
00:15:58,980 --> 00:16:00,160
Did she make a mistake?
217
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:10,020
Or is she just being overcautious?
218
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:14,860
The next day was the big one for Liz.
219
00:16:15,450 --> 00:16:19,270
She had her photo, her resume, and her
letter of introduction, and she hoped
220
00:16:19,270 --> 00:16:22,330
that today might be the beginning of a
glorious career in the theater.
221
00:16:24,410 --> 00:16:28,150
It was like entering some great temple
for Liz, and the first thing you know,
222
00:16:28,150 --> 00:16:31,590
she passed a charming fellow, probably
an actor from the looks of him.
223
00:16:33,150 --> 00:16:35,250
Douglas Baines, the director of the
theater.
224
00:16:35,750 --> 00:16:39,310
He'd built quite a reputation for
himself, and had also discovered a
225
00:16:39,310 --> 00:16:40,890
number of promising young actresses.
226
00:16:41,450 --> 00:16:43,330
When Liz came in, he was amused.
227
00:16:43,980 --> 00:16:45,480
She seemed frightened of him.
228
00:16:45,740 --> 00:16:46,740
Silly girl.
229
00:16:46,820 --> 00:16:48,200
Doug wanted to be helpful.
230
00:16:57,340 --> 00:16:58,660
Liz showed him her photos.
231
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,620
And he wondered about all the experience
she had listed on the back of it.
232
00:17:03,180 --> 00:17:06,780
But she insisted that she'd done a lot
of acting in her hometown and also had
233
00:17:06,780 --> 00:17:07,780
done a lot of summer stock.
234
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,060
So she wasn't entirely a beginner.
235
00:17:10,619 --> 00:17:14,020
And if Baines would give her a chance,
she'd show him she knew a thing or two
236
00:17:14,020 --> 00:17:15,020
about acting.
237
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:19,819
Some girls are sure about their talents,
and Liz had no qualms about blowing her
238
00:17:19,819 --> 00:17:20,819
own horn.
239
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:23,560
She read a few lines for Doug.
240
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:27,880
And she sounded okay.
241
00:17:29,220 --> 00:17:30,340
Even without rehearsal.
242
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,160
He introduced her to Baxter, a young
actor in the company.
243
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,220
Then Douglas sent them off to work in a
scene.
244
00:17:52,100 --> 00:17:53,100
She was in.
245
00:17:54,380 --> 00:17:57,540
Now Liz hopes to begin her long climb to
the heights of stardom.
246
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:01,500
First, the off-Broadway theater, then
on-Broadway, and the first-night critics
247
00:18:01,500 --> 00:18:04,400
hailing her as one of the greats. And
then Hollywood itself.
248
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:08,200
Millions of dollars to earn, millions of
fans to worship her.
249
00:18:10,060 --> 00:18:11,500
Nothing would stop her now.
250
00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:16,460
The men were in high gear now.
251
00:18:16,740 --> 00:18:18,560
Their characters were taking shape.
252
00:18:19,660 --> 00:18:21,880
They knew that Connie was deceptive in a
way.
253
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,780
Such beauty, a kind of ethereal thing
you would expect in some legendary
254
00:18:25,780 --> 00:18:27,140
character like Snow White.
255
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:31,140
Yet the reality of it all was that she
was a living, breathing girl.
256
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:36,000
She had the normal appetites of a normal
girl, and an outlook that was modern
257
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,380
without being in any possible way
immoral.
258
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:43,000
As a bathing suit model, this girl would
come under the eyes of many men.
259
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,680
who would be under the impression that
she was an easy mark.
260
00:18:46,260 --> 00:18:49,740
But great beauty does not go with great
looseness of moral fiber.
261
00:18:50,120 --> 00:18:53,940
No, Connie had found out that modeling
could bring her the greatest income for
262
00:18:53,940 --> 00:18:54,980
a girl of her education.
263
00:18:55,740 --> 00:19:00,340
At the showroom, she often had occasion
to exhibit her semi-nude body to a room
264
00:19:00,340 --> 00:19:03,080
full of buyers, both male and female.
265
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:07,520
But Connie, although propositioned
several times a day, was scornful of the
266
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:08,520
passes made at her.
267
00:19:08,740 --> 00:19:11,720
She knew that one of these days a fellow
would really love her.
268
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:13,300
and asked her to become his wife.
269
00:19:15,100 --> 00:19:19,120
By day, she's a sexy figure, modeling
bathing suits so that the women of the
270
00:19:19,120 --> 00:19:20,740
nation can attract their future
husbands.
271
00:19:21,620 --> 00:19:25,700
By night, instead of being the
gallivanting playgirl, Connie's more
272
00:19:25,700 --> 00:19:28,200
likely to sit at home doing her nails
and hair.
273
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,720
Sure, I'd love to do a set of nudes for
your magazine.
274
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:35,300
Have you got anything special in mind?
275
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:39,900
Violent and passionate females, eh?
276
00:19:40,430 --> 00:19:42,290
Sure, those kind of girls are just my
meat.
277
00:19:42,990 --> 00:19:47,410
Uh, I know a few girls who look like
they're ready for love at any hour of
278
00:19:47,410 --> 00:19:48,410
the day.
279
00:19:48,510 --> 00:19:54,150
I'll mess up their hair a little, set
them against some bright colors, and,
280
00:19:54,210 --> 00:19:56,270
man, I'll claw their way right out of
the pages.
281
00:19:57,670 --> 00:19:59,510
Right, I'll line up the girls right
away.
282
00:19:59,910 --> 00:20:02,030
You'll have some proofs the beginning of
next week.
283
00:20:02,990 --> 00:20:03,990
Right, okay.
284
00:20:04,090 --> 00:20:05,210
Bye-bye, Mr. Stronsky.
285
00:20:17,900 --> 00:20:21,280
At this point, the creative men felt
that a little time should be spent
286
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,460
following up what happened to Liz and
Baxter.
287
00:20:26,380 --> 00:20:29,160
But it says here in the script that
she's dressed in a slip.
288
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,060
You want to take your dress off?
289
00:20:31,340 --> 00:20:33,520
Ah, the big bad city wolf.
290
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:35,960
Okay, but remember it's only a play.
291
00:20:36,660 --> 00:20:39,540
You got nothing to worry about. I used
to be a boy scout.
292
00:21:11,120 --> 00:21:17,900
Let's take it from the top Evening Rosie
Why you sure look pretty
293
00:21:17,900 --> 00:21:19,080
standing there like that?
294
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:26,260
You've seen enough Henry now get out of
here. Don't come back unless I ask Don't
295
00:21:26,260 --> 00:21:27,260
make me laugh.
296
00:21:27,940 --> 00:21:32,100
I Know what you've been doing with them
other guys The whole town knows about
297
00:21:32,100 --> 00:21:36,980
it. Don't try and pretend you're sweet
and innocent with me I'm not pretending
298
00:21:36,980 --> 00:21:38,240
nothing, but I'm not
299
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,500
And when I am, I do the picking and I do
the choosing.
300
00:21:42,700 --> 00:21:44,600
And I sure ain't choosing you.
301
00:21:44,860 --> 00:21:46,920
Now get before I call Mr. Mason.
302
00:21:49,740 --> 00:21:53,620
I'll go after I get what I came for. I'm
as good as any of those other guys
303
00:21:53,620 --> 00:21:54,620
you've been with.
304
00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:57,900
Before I'm through with you, honey,
you're going to be right in the mood for
305
00:21:57,900 --> 00:21:59,420
the kind of loving I'm going to give
you.
306
00:22:00,340 --> 00:22:03,060
Stay away from me, Henry, or I'll bite
your skull.
307
00:22:05,020 --> 00:22:07,600
You go ahead and try.
308
00:22:09,390 --> 00:22:11,370
I'll whoop you like you should have been
long ago.
309
00:22:13,110 --> 00:22:14,830
Be flowing through with you, baby.
310
00:22:17,230 --> 00:22:20,250
You're going to be in the kind of mood
for the love that I'm going to give you.
311
00:23:17,870 --> 00:23:18,669
Hi, kids.
312
00:23:18,670 --> 00:23:21,990
It's not what you think. We were just
rehearsing, weren't we, Baxter?
313
00:23:22,230 --> 00:23:24,670
Yes, unfortunately, just rehearsing.
314
00:23:24,990 --> 00:23:26,710
That's what I call living theater.
315
00:23:31,050 --> 00:23:36,210
It seemed that Liz was off to a flying
start on her ladder of conquest.
316
00:23:36,910 --> 00:23:41,810
If that was only a rehearsal, the actual
performance at the theater should really
317
00:23:41,810 --> 00:23:42,810
be something.
318
00:23:46,120 --> 00:23:47,940
Doug was tremendously impressed with
Liz.
319
00:23:48,180 --> 00:23:49,820
She was a natural, it seemed to him.
320
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,240
The part of the sensual southern girl
was really cut out for her.
321
00:23:53,860 --> 00:23:57,000
Somehow he had the feeling that the
dark, tempestuous looks of the girl were
322
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:58,520
echoed in her own personal emotions.
323
00:23:59,140 --> 00:24:00,600
He looked at Baxter and laughed.
324
00:24:01,020 --> 00:24:03,260
So he thinks he has first call on the
girl, does he?
325
00:24:03,660 --> 00:24:07,140
Well, Doug may be serious about the
theater and all that, but he's still a
326
00:24:07,140 --> 00:24:08,019
human being.
327
00:24:08,020 --> 00:24:11,220
When a girl like Liz comes along who
seems to be amenable to a little
328
00:24:11,220 --> 00:24:14,160
intimate conversation, Doug would be a
fool not to pull rank.
329
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,740
After all, there's a lot of polishing
the aspiring young actress needs.
330
00:24:18,380 --> 00:24:19,860
So long, Baxter, old boy.
331
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,880
Douglas Baines is no naive, phony stage
director.
332
00:24:26,360 --> 00:24:30,200
He's a hard worker, a craftsman, and an
up-and-coming force in the theater.
333
00:24:30,820 --> 00:24:34,700
Aside from the satisfactions of doing a
good job with the cast, Doug takes
334
00:24:34,700 --> 00:24:37,580
advantage of another gift which is
available to him at all times.
335
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:39,000
Girls.
336
00:24:39,260 --> 00:24:42,340
Dozens of them. Lovely, sylph-like
things in some cases.
337
00:24:42,810 --> 00:24:44,830
Dark, brooding females in other cases.
338
00:24:45,450 --> 00:24:46,730
Doug likes his work.
339
00:24:46,970 --> 00:24:51,290
When a girl like Liz seems to be ready
to pass out her favors, why should Doug
340
00:24:51,290 --> 00:24:52,290
deny himself?
341
00:24:52,330 --> 00:24:55,590
Sure, he's a serious fellow, but there's
also time for play.
342
00:24:56,730 --> 00:25:01,190
Liz Adams is next on his list, and he
knows that his instincts are not wrong.
343
00:25:01,730 --> 00:25:05,310
This is a girl with a driving ambition
which will get her either to the top of
344
00:25:05,310 --> 00:25:07,910
a heap or plunge her into assorted
obscurity.
345
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,000
Doug is a master at working on a girl.
346
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,960
For him, the supreme pleasure is not in
the conquest of a girl's emotions.
347
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:19,740
That's for truck drivers.
348
00:25:20,020 --> 00:25:22,800
No, Doug is cut from a different piece
of lumber.
349
00:25:23,220 --> 00:25:25,020
First, the gentlemanly approach.
350
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,120
A sharing of the beauties of nature.
351
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:30,440
A mutual awareness of the glories of
civilized living.
352
00:25:30,900 --> 00:25:32,200
Of soaring architecture.
353
00:25:32,900 --> 00:25:34,000
Of swift cars.
354
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:36,180
Of fine food and drink.
355
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:40,200
Let the girl know that her mind and
intellect are appreciated.
356
00:25:42,990 --> 00:25:45,650
Every girl has a basic set of female
equipment.
357
00:25:47,690 --> 00:25:50,310
It's stupid to pay too direct attention
to it.
358
00:25:52,130 --> 00:25:54,370
That's okay with girls who never have a
date.
359
00:25:55,890 --> 00:25:57,130
It flatters them.
360
00:25:58,930 --> 00:26:01,230
But girls like Liz are different.
361
00:26:03,210 --> 00:26:07,590
From the time they first became women,
Liz's type has known what it is to be
362
00:26:07,590 --> 00:26:08,610
run after by boys.
363
00:26:11,690 --> 00:26:15,610
When they hit the age of 21, it doesn't
impress them to be pawed and mooned
364
00:26:15,610 --> 00:26:16,610
over.
365
00:26:17,830 --> 00:26:21,130
Doug knows this, and he stopped making
mistakes long ago.
366
00:26:23,090 --> 00:26:26,510
His secrets for getting a girl to play
ball are fundamental to all
367
00:26:26,510 --> 00:26:27,510
sophisticated men.
368
00:26:29,670 --> 00:26:30,930
First, politeness.
369
00:26:33,150 --> 00:26:36,970
Even the communist girl likes to believe
she's a princess in her man's eyes.
370
00:26:39,330 --> 00:26:43,240
Secondly... Doug suits the conversation
to the girl's interests and knowledge.
371
00:26:45,220 --> 00:26:48,900
If she knows nothing about the theater,
then he only talks about it from a
372
00:26:48,900 --> 00:26:49,900
general viewpoint.
373
00:26:51,340 --> 00:26:55,140
Who he knows, what the critics say about
him, what his hopes and ambitions are.
374
00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:00,760
That way, the girl feels that she
contributes to the conversation without
375
00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:01,760
showing her ignorance.
376
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:08,140
If the girl's an actress like Liz, Doug
gets a little technical.
377
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:14,320
He talks about theatrical interpretation
and all the other nuances of talk which
378
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:16,800
will lead the girl into expressing her
own opinions.
379
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,140
Then he tells her about his future
plans.
380
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:27,200
Sooner or later, the girl will get the
idea that maybe she can move up in the
381
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:28,200
world.
382
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:32,300
Doug was already impressing Liz.
383
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:37,960
He hinted at big things to come if Liz
played her cards right.
384
00:27:39,850 --> 00:27:42,250
But he was never vulgar or direct.
385
00:27:44,550 --> 00:27:47,770
In addition, Doug acts as the worldly
host.
386
00:27:48,110 --> 00:27:52,250
He shows the girl the city and spends
money on her without being ostentatious.
387
00:28:00,010 --> 00:28:02,670
The tour of Central Park was a
revelation to Liz.
388
00:28:02,990 --> 00:28:05,130
What a beautiful city to have come to.
389
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:23,100
At the fashionable St. Moritz Hotel,
facing Central Park, Doug is known by
390
00:28:23,100 --> 00:28:24,100
the head waiter.
391
00:28:24,180 --> 00:28:28,400
This may seem like a questionable point
of pride, but it hints at his being a
392
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:29,400
man about town.
393
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:34,240
It also tells Liz that Doug has been
here before, probably with other pretty
394
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,720
girls. She wonders if they're still
around.
395
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:40,760
She also wonders if they're in the
running for any leads in Doug's plays.
396
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:45,600
As the evening wears on into early
night, Doug decides that it's time to
397
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:47,220
begin closing the net around the
mermaid.
398
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,260
He's already forced from talking about
cultured things.
399
00:28:50,660 --> 00:28:53,780
Now it's time to bring this new
relationship up to a more serious level.
400
00:28:54,100 --> 00:28:56,720
He must discuss her coming career in
more specific terms.
401
00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:58,640
Liz does not object.
402
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:02,340
In fact, she's been wondering when this
guy's going to stop talking and get down
403
00:29:02,340 --> 00:29:03,340
to business.
404
00:29:06,900 --> 00:29:10,740
You know, my dear, with a few
connections and a push in the right
405
00:29:10,740 --> 00:29:12,460
direction, Liz, you could make it big.
406
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:13,920
That would be great.
407
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:16,040
What about this play you're doing?
408
00:29:17,709 --> 00:29:20,390
Couldn't you consider me for the lead? I
know I could do it.
409
00:29:20,990 --> 00:29:24,390
Oh, now, Liz, every pretty little girl
wants to be a lead in a play.
410
00:29:24,810 --> 00:29:26,570
And you know you're very inexperienced.
411
00:29:28,250 --> 00:29:29,550
Just give me a chance.
412
00:29:29,830 --> 00:29:31,910
Work with me. I know I can bring it off.
413
00:29:32,970 --> 00:29:36,050
Well, that would take a lot of time and
work, wouldn't it?
414
00:29:36,290 --> 00:29:37,690
And what would I get out of it?
415
00:29:38,010 --> 00:29:41,110
Isn't it an ancient and honorable
tradition in the theater that the
416
00:29:41,110 --> 00:29:42,930
leading lady gets to sleep with her
director?
417
00:29:44,690 --> 00:29:46,650
Well, my dear, for a...
418
00:29:46,910 --> 00:29:52,690
Such a small-town girl, you certainly do
know how to live life well, don't you?
419
00:29:52,790 --> 00:29:55,030
Doug, I haven't any illusions.
420
00:29:55,530 --> 00:29:57,650
I didn't come up here just for a drink.
421
00:29:58,250 --> 00:29:59,770
You're a very attractive guy.
422
00:30:00,470 --> 00:30:04,270
Let's face it, a girl feels the same way
about love as a man does.
423
00:30:04,610 --> 00:30:07,850
Most girls won't admit it, but believe
me, it's true.
424
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:44,740
It seemed like such a simple way for a
girl to climb the stairs to stardom.
425
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,860
Now, gentlemen, this is an awfully
ruthless girl.
426
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:39,520
I don't know. We need this for conflict.
She's written that way, Joe. I think
427
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:41,420
it's good. Yes, let's just go on.
428
00:31:41,940 --> 00:31:45,060
Leslie Carter, man of big deals and big
money.
429
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:49,600
As the writer Ed saw Leslie, he was a
man who had started with little and
430
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:50,579
worked his way up.
431
00:31:50,580 --> 00:31:53,200
The producer let Ed develop this
character by himself.
432
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:57,080
Ed, one of the most promising writers of
the decade, had a way with characters
433
00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:58,080
like Leslie.
434
00:31:58,140 --> 00:31:59,220
First, his mistress.
435
00:31:59,920 --> 00:32:03,120
A man like Leslie would have indulged
himself in someone like a Mimi.
436
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:08,660
Born to poverty, Leslie, who was born
Luigi Cariaccio, long dreamed of the day
437
00:32:08,660 --> 00:32:09,660
when he might be rich.
438
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:14,060
Starting out as a simple kneader of
dough in an Italian restaurant, Leslie
439
00:32:14,060 --> 00:32:16,240
soon bulldozed his way into becoming a
waiter.
440
00:32:16,820 --> 00:32:19,520
One day, he decided that he wanted the
head waiter's job.
441
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,000
The man made more than double what
Leslie made.
442
00:32:22,340 --> 00:32:25,680
He arranged to have the head waiter
depart the premises in a simple fashion.
443
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:27,000
He threatened them.
444
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,580
Being a coward, the man took off for
destinations unknown.
445
00:32:31,380 --> 00:32:32,980
Leslie became the new head waiter.
446
00:32:33,500 --> 00:32:37,280
One or two of the older waiters were
indignant about such a young man taking
447
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:38,280
the coveted position.
448
00:32:38,900 --> 00:32:42,300
One night in back of the restaurant,
Leslie persuaded them that they were
449
00:32:42,300 --> 00:32:43,440
wrong about his new job.
450
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:48,100
After the doctors laid in the stitches,
there was no more discussion about who
451
00:32:48,100 --> 00:32:49,100
should be the head waiter.
452
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,640
From head waiter, Leslie moved on to
bigger things.
453
00:32:53,180 --> 00:32:56,280
First, he thought of opening his own
restaurant. Then, looking into things,
454
00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:59,140
he decided that it would be better to
sell the food to restaurants.
455
00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:03,860
The owner of the place Leslie worked in
was easily convinced that he should give
456
00:33:03,860 --> 00:33:08,140
Leslie a contract to supply him with
spaghetti and linens and sauces and all
457
00:33:08,140 --> 00:33:09,800
the things which comprise a fine
restaurant.
458
00:33:10,420 --> 00:33:13,960
What Leslie lacked in intellect, he made
up in muscle and bony fists.
459
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:16,660
Soon after, he began to earn big money.
460
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:20,920
Ambition hit Leslie, and he began to
read stories about the really great men
461
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:21,920
of finance in America.
462
00:33:22,500 --> 00:33:24,400
Rockefeller, Ford, Giannini, Capone.
463
00:33:24,700 --> 00:33:26,280
These men became his idols.
464
00:33:26,860 --> 00:33:30,220
Suddenly, Leslie discovered that he was
not the strong-arm boy he'd always
465
00:33:30,220 --> 00:33:31,220
thought of himself as.
466
00:33:31,460 --> 00:33:34,640
He began to be aware that he had a
brain. He developed it.
467
00:33:34,900 --> 00:33:39,020
Soon, the two-fisted lout became a man
of education and sophistication.
468
00:33:39,780 --> 00:33:43,400
At this point in his career, he changed
his name to Leslie Carter.
469
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:48,160
Turning from putting the strong arm on
old Italian restaurant owners, Leslie
470
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:49,700
began to broaden his horizons.
471
00:33:50,170 --> 00:33:53,110
He put the strong arm on a stocks and
bonds firm in Wall Street.
472
00:33:54,030 --> 00:33:56,890
Approaching the president of the
company, five minutes behind closed
473
00:33:56,890 --> 00:33:58,590
doors saw him become a full partner.
474
00:33:59,030 --> 00:34:01,550
He made his first inroad into the world
of high finance.
475
00:34:02,430 --> 00:34:06,690
After his new partner had taken a much
needed rest, Leslie had him show him the
476
00:34:06,690 --> 00:34:07,690
ropes in Wall Street.
477
00:34:08,010 --> 00:34:11,350
Soon he learned with the best of the
blue blood crowd how to spread rumors,
478
00:34:11,530 --> 00:34:15,310
lie about company earnings, and lie in
wait for big killings in the market.
479
00:34:16,010 --> 00:34:19,830
It was not long before Leslie and his
partner had earned a million dollars in
480
00:34:19,830 --> 00:34:20,830
the market.
481
00:34:21,050 --> 00:34:25,610
He also ascended to the rights of rich
men, fine cars and fast women.
482
00:34:26,750 --> 00:34:29,330
Now he's begun to tire of his present
mistress.
483
00:34:29,909 --> 00:34:34,889
Mimi Schlang, once a simple counter girl
in a five and dime store, has moved up
484
00:34:34,889 --> 00:34:35,889
in the world.
485
00:34:36,389 --> 00:34:38,310
She's the mistress of this famous
millionaire.
486
00:34:38,750 --> 00:34:43,610
The trouble is, she's begun to love the
good things in life just a bit too much.
487
00:34:44,670 --> 00:34:48,690
Somehow, when a girl like Mimi begins to
fall apart, the disintegration comes
488
00:34:48,690 --> 00:34:50,110
with terrifying swiftness.
489
00:34:50,469 --> 00:34:53,730
The first lines appear where they should
after another ten years.
490
00:34:54,710 --> 00:34:58,710
In her haste to remain young-looking,
the girl tries to act gayer than ever.
491
00:34:58,830 --> 00:35:02,970
She covers her face with creams and
lotions and begins to seek that extra
492
00:35:02,970 --> 00:35:04,910
help in seeming to be a fun companion.
493
00:35:05,330 --> 00:35:07,910
She starts loosening up with a round or
two of alcohol.
494
00:35:08,690 --> 00:35:10,290
This is what has happened to Mimi.
495
00:35:12,970 --> 00:35:17,310
Leslie, fed up with Mimi anyway, finds
his interest aroused when Doug calls up
496
00:35:17,310 --> 00:35:18,310
about his new find.
497
00:35:18,990 --> 00:35:22,350
Doug tells Leslie that he's discovered a
girl with great beauty and considerable
498
00:35:22,350 --> 00:35:23,350
talent.
499
00:35:23,670 --> 00:35:27,090
He raves about the girl to such a degree
that Leslie gets really curious.
500
00:35:27,630 --> 00:35:32,050
He's just about decided to unload Mimi
and wonders if this new girl might be a
501
00:35:32,050 --> 00:35:33,029
suitable replacement.
502
00:35:33,030 --> 00:35:35,930
If the girl is as attractive as Doug
says she is.
503
00:35:36,550 --> 00:35:40,880
Leaving Mimi to her beloved companion...
Leslie decides to go down and see for
504
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:42,460
himself what Doug's talking about.
505
00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:55,820
Now that he's tired of Mimi, Leslie,
fishing for new trout, has checked his
506
00:35:55,820 --> 00:35:57,460
bank balance for a piece of new bait.
507
00:35:57,980 --> 00:36:01,300
He hopes that the fish he'll catch will
prove tasty indeed.
508
00:36:02,060 --> 00:36:05,380
When he walks into the theater and sees
the rehearsal, he finds himself
509
00:36:05,380 --> 00:36:06,380
instantly excited.
510
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,320
What a magnificent female animal this
girl is.
511
00:36:09,580 --> 00:36:11,820
He knows immediately that she has
something.
512
00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:14,800
He also just as swiftly knows he wants
it.
513
00:36:15,220 --> 00:36:17,740
From the first moment he takes to her,
he's enchanted.
514
00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:22,780
As for Liz, her sixth sense tells her
that this is the man who plays the
515
00:36:22,780 --> 00:36:24,440
fiddle which makes even Doug dance.
516
00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:28,600
She has no regrets for what she and Doug
have done.
517
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:32,380
She at least got the opportunity to meet
Leslie Carter.
518
00:36:32,720 --> 00:36:34,960
Now she's moving into the big time.
519
00:36:36,210 --> 00:36:38,930
Harry, the director, thought it might be
time to see what Barry, the
520
00:36:38,930 --> 00:36:39,930
photographer, was up to.
521
00:36:40,270 --> 00:36:44,070
Ed, the writer, who felt the film should
be done in color, pointed out how it
522
00:36:44,070 --> 00:36:46,170
would enhance scenes like the one to
follow.
523
00:38:19,790 --> 00:38:22,710
Ed the writer was still adamant about
using color in the film.
524
00:38:23,050 --> 00:38:26,490
It seemed that if the entire film were
in color, it'd be much more enjoyable.
525
00:38:27,150 --> 00:38:30,290
Joe, as usual, the money-minded
producer, kept putting his foot down.
526
00:38:31,370 --> 00:38:34,550
Although they had enough money to do the
picture, the budget was still not large
527
00:38:34,550 --> 00:38:36,570
enough to turn out anything but a
black-and-white movie.
528
00:38:37,510 --> 00:38:41,310
Harry, always the arch-politician in
these discussions, usually sided with
529
00:38:41,310 --> 00:38:42,310
the producer.
530
00:38:43,210 --> 00:38:46,670
In New York, there's an institution
known as the Cocktail Party.
531
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:52,300
No matter who you are, you're nothing
until you've either given or been to a
532
00:38:52,300 --> 00:38:53,300
cocktail party.
533
00:38:54,720 --> 00:38:58,900
Usually, they start toward the end of a
working day, about five in the
534
00:38:58,900 --> 00:38:59,900
afternoon.
535
00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:02,720
But Leslie's too busy for weekday
parties.
536
00:39:03,740 --> 00:39:08,160
So this bright Sunday, Leslie's taken
time off from his labor of love, making
537
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,960
money, and is having a coming-out party
for Liz.
538
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:16,020
He's gotten rid of his former mistress,
or at least he thinks he has.
539
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:21,740
Leslie's penthouse apartment overlooks
the most fashionable part of New York.
540
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:27,000
The towering park hotels, the green
panorama of Central Park, the RCA
541
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:30,480
building, all these monuments to New
York are seen from his terrace.
542
00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:33,460
This man knows how to live well.
543
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:38,320
Since the Internal Revenue Department
has declared itself into his will as a
544
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:42,520
beneficiary against his wishes, Leslie
is determined to live it up during his
545
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:43,520
remaining years.
546
00:39:44,580 --> 00:39:46,000
The party's a success.
547
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:48,820
Almost any New York cocktail party is.
548
00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:53,940
The secret is to drink three fast
martinis or scotches and then laugh
549
00:39:53,940 --> 00:39:57,240
constantly, all the time agreeing with
what the other person is saying.
550
00:39:58,020 --> 00:40:02,240
Anyone who's serious for more than 30
seconds is sliced off the guest list for
551
00:40:02,240 --> 00:40:03,560
the next round of frivolity.
552
00:40:04,700 --> 00:40:08,200
Connie has been invited to the party
because Liz feels a little sorry for
553
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:12,680
her. Not too sorry. A girl like Liz
can't understand carrying the torch for
554
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:13,499
a guy.
555
00:40:13,500 --> 00:40:16,900
To her, the only difference between men
is status and money.
556
00:40:17,380 --> 00:40:22,140
The more of both, the more attractive
the man is, even if he's King Kong.
557
00:40:23,460 --> 00:40:26,540
Money makes any man a prince charming to
this girl.
558
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:34,240
Mimi is one of those insufferable girls
who thinks it's cute to have what she
559
00:40:34,240 --> 00:40:35,340
calls a little drinking.
560
00:40:35,900 --> 00:40:39,140
Now, drunk again, she decides she wants
to talk to Leslie.
561
00:40:39,850 --> 00:40:43,130
She begins to think about all the nice
things her keeper will get for her.
562
00:40:43,430 --> 00:40:47,370
With each sip of her drink, she sees an
ever-mounting pile of furs, clothes,
563
00:40:47,670 --> 00:40:50,490
jewelry, and all the other things she
thinks life owes her.
564
00:40:51,010 --> 00:40:53,430
If she only knew what was going on out
on the terrace.
565
00:40:54,070 --> 00:40:58,110
Girls like Mimi are always the last to
realize when the party's over for them.
566
00:40:58,690 --> 00:41:01,710
Right now, Leslie doesn't even give her
a single thought.
567
00:41:02,150 --> 00:41:06,590
With men like Leslie, women are
playthings. They're expensive, but that
568
00:41:06,590 --> 00:41:07,670
doesn't bother these fellows.
569
00:41:08,270 --> 00:41:11,870
With bought women, they can feel free to
treat them like dirt if they feel like
570
00:41:11,870 --> 00:41:14,390
it. They couldn't get away with that
with a wife.
571
00:41:16,250 --> 00:41:18,590
Leslie's annoyed at being called away
from his new girl.
572
00:41:19,150 --> 00:41:22,150
When he finds out that it's Mimi, he
tries to control his temper.
573
00:41:22,770 --> 00:41:26,730
Sure, he can yell and scream as well as
the next guy, but he realizes that with
574
00:41:26,730 --> 00:41:29,970
a drunk stiff like Mimi, you have to
have more pity than anger.
575
00:41:31,170 --> 00:41:34,270
She's just a mistress reaching the end
of the line with her benefactor.
576
00:41:35,330 --> 00:41:37,390
Leslie thinks about Liz out on the
terrace.
577
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:39,000
He makes a comparison.
578
00:41:40,460 --> 00:41:44,620
Talking with Mimi, once a time of
amusement and delight, now seems
579
00:41:44,620 --> 00:41:46,060
excruciatingly boring.
580
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:50,160
He wonders what he ever saw in this
ridiculous person in the first place.
581
00:41:50,780 --> 00:41:54,480
Just talking to Mimi makes Liz seem ten
times as desirable.
582
00:41:54,980 --> 00:41:59,320
He contrasts Liz's youthful suppleness
with Mimi's growing set of wrinkles.
583
00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:02,280
Each drink seems to etch another line of
the face.
584
00:42:02,660 --> 00:42:06,480
The mouth, as he sees it over the phone,
is slack with drunken stupidity.
585
00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:11,020
The bright girl of three years ago has
become an intense irritation to Leslie.
586
00:42:12,220 --> 00:42:14,720
On the terrace, the guests are having a
fine time.
587
00:42:15,060 --> 00:42:19,160
Account executives from advertising
agencies are piling point upon point
588
00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:20,820
with prospective employers and clients.
589
00:42:21,720 --> 00:42:25,540
And a few men here and there are laying
the groundwork for an affair in the
590
00:42:25,540 --> 00:42:26,540
future.
591
00:42:27,300 --> 00:42:29,460
Will this stupid woman ever get off this
phone?
592
00:42:30,030 --> 00:42:32,990
Leslie wishes he were more of a tough
guy. Then he'd just tell her to jump
593
00:42:32,990 --> 00:42:36,270
four times into a lake and come up three
times. But not Leslie.
594
00:42:37,390 --> 00:42:40,670
Mimi, clutching her main interest in
life, is fighting for her future.
595
00:42:41,370 --> 00:42:44,270
She reminds Leslie of the many good
times they had together.
596
00:42:44,970 --> 00:42:46,270
But it's different now.
597
00:42:46,510 --> 00:42:49,150
To even touch this creature is
disgusting to Leslie.
598
00:42:51,050 --> 00:42:54,650
Leslie promises to see Mimi in a week.
He tells her he has some important
599
00:42:54,650 --> 00:42:55,830
business to take care of.
600
00:43:00,750 --> 00:43:04,570
He wonders just how much he should give
her to pay her off. No hard feelings,
601
00:43:04,690 --> 00:43:06,050
just hard cash.
602
00:43:06,750 --> 00:43:09,690
Well, enough of the lush. He wants to
get back to Liz.
603
00:43:11,310 --> 00:43:15,590
Meanwhile, back at the bottle, a stoned
Mimi is planning all sorts of sexy
604
00:43:15,590 --> 00:43:19,590
things to wear for Leslie's visit. She's
confident that she'll be able to cement
605
00:43:19,590 --> 00:43:22,430
him back to her with a display of
affection and tender caresses.
606
00:43:22,750 --> 00:43:26,970
What she doesn't know is that her once
tender touch is now like the grating of
607
00:43:26,970 --> 00:43:28,450
sandpaper across his cheek.
608
00:43:29,050 --> 00:43:34,890
Connie is feeling just plain lousy. Two
times by her boyfriend, Mr. Hendricks at
609
00:43:34,890 --> 00:43:36,710
the showroom beginning to bother her for
a date.
610
00:43:37,110 --> 00:43:39,890
Life is becoming something of a drag for
the girl.
611
00:43:40,750 --> 00:43:44,730
At this point, the producer, director,
and writer realize that they had to have
612
00:43:44,730 --> 00:43:47,610
Connie react to the circumstances which
have made her miserable.
613
00:43:48,030 --> 00:43:50,930
Harry suggests that she should throw
herself right into the thick of the
614
00:43:50,930 --> 00:43:54,030
sophisticated crowd and be on the make
for every man in sight.
615
00:44:01,029 --> 00:44:04,370
Harry's reasoning is that the events
will be too much for this sweet child.
616
00:44:07,350 --> 00:44:09,770
Betrayed by her first lover, overworked
at the showroom.
617
00:44:10,210 --> 00:44:14,210
Now she's at this party for Liz, and she
sees that Virtue's reward is a flannel
618
00:44:14,210 --> 00:44:16,930
nightgown and a cup of warm milk before
going to bed.
619
00:44:22,050 --> 00:44:25,950
Liz is beginning to come home with fur
pieces, gold cigarette lighters, and
620
00:44:25,950 --> 00:44:28,230
spending money which her folks never
sent from home.
621
00:44:32,750 --> 00:44:36,550
Harry says, let her have a good time.
Let her show these New Yorkers. The girl
622
00:44:36,550 --> 00:44:40,030
from Troy, New York, knows how to tinkle
the ice cubes and really cut loose.
623
00:44:44,350 --> 00:44:46,270
Joe, the producer, put his foot down.
624
00:44:46,810 --> 00:44:50,630
Sure, she might be bowled over by things
piling up, but she's a decent girl.
625
00:44:50,910 --> 00:44:53,630
She's not about to turn slut after a
couple of drinks.
626
00:44:54,790 --> 00:44:57,390
In the meantime, Liz is a smashing
success.
627
00:44:58,610 --> 00:45:02,100
To celebrate her successful debut,
Leslie's made a little trip to
628
00:45:02,100 --> 00:45:05,820
Tiffany's, a little store which sells
the kind of ice which doesn't melt.
629
00:45:06,300 --> 00:45:09,660
At this rate, the Internal Revenue
Department won't have anything to swell
630
00:45:09,660 --> 00:45:12,820
their pockets when Leslie's hijinks take
their toll on his system.
631
00:45:13,340 --> 00:45:17,940
He's getting a bit old to handle a girl
like Liz, but he likes to have her
632
00:45:17,940 --> 00:45:18,940
around.
633
00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:22,060
The men develop their plot further.
634
00:45:24,260 --> 00:45:27,960
Leslie had a fine house on Fire Island,
and they'd make use of it in the story.
635
00:45:29,549 --> 00:45:32,790
Summer, and just the perfect time for
relaxation on a weekend.
636
00:45:33,430 --> 00:45:36,710
Leslie, being a rich man, has bought
himself a house on Fire Island.
637
00:45:37,230 --> 00:45:40,470
The island is the playground of the
well-heeled crowd from New York.
638
00:45:40,910 --> 00:45:45,030
This weekend, Leslie is acting the
munificent host, and has asked Liz if
639
00:45:45,030 --> 00:45:46,750
she'd like to bring along a couple of
her girlfriends.
640
00:45:47,490 --> 00:45:50,550
Sure, says Liz, the kids would love to
spend a whole weekend at the beach.
641
00:45:51,130 --> 00:45:53,010
Well, who should she bring, she
wondered.
642
00:45:53,450 --> 00:45:54,490
Well, first, Connie.
643
00:45:54,690 --> 00:45:55,690
Have to do that.
644
00:45:55,930 --> 00:45:58,650
The poor kid's still in the dumps thanks
to her philandering boyfriend.
645
00:45:59,690 --> 00:46:01,650
Helga, a lovely blonde German girl.
646
00:46:01,910 --> 00:46:03,890
And finally, Tracy, Liz's cousin.
647
00:46:04,230 --> 00:46:06,010
They look enough alike to be sisters.
648
00:46:06,350 --> 00:46:10,510
But Tracy's a little different. She's
not man-crazy or so hell-bent on making
649
00:46:10,510 --> 00:46:11,510
the big time.
650
00:46:11,690 --> 00:46:15,670
Not like Liz, who's looking for some
caviar, a jug of scotch, and a vigorous
651
00:46:15,670 --> 00:46:16,810
man to curl up with.
652
00:46:18,630 --> 00:46:20,230
Leslie's looking forward to this
weekend.
653
00:46:20,530 --> 00:46:23,910
It's been fun showing Liz the town and
letting her get a real taste of what
654
00:46:23,910 --> 00:46:24,910
money can do.
655
00:46:25,070 --> 00:46:28,510
For the first time in her life, Liz
knows what it is to point at something
656
00:46:28,510 --> 00:46:29,510
and say, Gimme.
657
00:46:29,990 --> 00:46:32,290
Presto, no sugar plum fairy comes forth.
658
00:46:32,570 --> 00:46:33,990
Rather, her sugar datums.
659
00:46:34,490 --> 00:46:38,810
She can snap her fingers, and magically,
Leslie is there, open checkbook
660
00:46:38,810 --> 00:46:41,810
extended. Is there any fool like an old
one?
661
00:46:42,290 --> 00:46:45,330
But as far as Leslie's concerned, he's
getting his money's worth.
662
00:46:45,610 --> 00:46:46,830
He's no dope either.
663
00:46:47,090 --> 00:46:50,950
He knows that without the long green
stuff, he'd just be one of the guys
664
00:46:50,950 --> 00:46:54,370
standing on the corner watching all the
Liz's of the world twitch past him.
665
00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:59,000
But at this stage in his life, Leslie
couldn't care less that he's being taken
666
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:00,260
for a little ride by Liz.
667
00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:06,100
When all the shooting's over, it'll
still be Leslie who's holding the cash
668
00:47:06,100 --> 00:47:10,920
box. And if Liz decides to take off,
why, that's tough tiddlywinks. For her,
669
00:47:10,940 --> 00:47:11,940
not him.
670
00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:14,120
Leslie's had his little flings before.
671
00:47:14,780 --> 00:47:17,260
As for marriage, Leslie's too smart for
that.
672
00:47:17,740 --> 00:47:20,860
He's seen too many of his other rich
friends marry some little cream puff,
673
00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:25,240
and a year later, the girl yells mental
cruelty, and his friend is standing
674
00:47:25,240 --> 00:47:29,180
around like a dope while a judge is
emptying his pockets and shoveling it
675
00:47:29,180 --> 00:47:31,380
all into the girl's mink-lined piggy
bank.
676
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:33,720
Not for Leslie, such a deal.
677
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:36,340
Nope, he'll take his girls as they come.
678
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:39,320
He's a strong believer in the
installment plan.
679
00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:42,940
Helga, the blonde German girl, is new to
Leslie.
680
00:47:43,500 --> 00:47:47,180
She's a secretary in a suntan lotion
factory, and she's brought along a
681
00:47:47,180 --> 00:47:48,180
supply for the weekend.
682
00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:50,660
They're all needed. The girl's a nudist.
683
00:47:51,140 --> 00:47:53,580
When Liz first heard about this, she was
shocked.
684
00:47:53,860 --> 00:47:55,740
Then Helga explained a few things.
685
00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:03,700
Liz was surprised to learn that
everything was proper and on the up and
686
00:48:03,700 --> 00:48:04,700
up at a nudist camp.
687
00:48:05,140 --> 00:48:08,540
Anyway, there's nothing wrong with
nudism. It's one of the most popular
688
00:48:08,540 --> 00:48:10,000
family pastimes in the world.
689
00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:14,160
In the United States alone, There are
hundreds of nudist camps spread around
690
00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:15,098
the whole country.
691
00:48:15,100 --> 00:48:16,620
And who goes to these camps?
692
00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:19,760
Mostly entire families of excellent
reputation.
693
00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:22,740
They support this modern form of
health-seeking.
694
00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:27,260
They pile into their cars, just like
Leslie and the girls, and off they go to
695
00:48:27,260 --> 00:48:28,260
their favorite camp.
696
00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:32,140
Sometimes it's in the woods, in the
midst of soaring trees and imposing
697
00:48:32,140 --> 00:48:33,140
mountains.
698
00:48:33,620 --> 00:48:36,300
Nature is impressed upon their minds at
every glance.
699
00:48:37,180 --> 00:48:40,980
The long miles were soon behind Leslie
and his cubby of peacocks.
700
00:48:41,580 --> 00:48:45,060
The two hours on the road had seemed to
pass like the shadow of a thin man.
701
00:48:45,940 --> 00:48:47,900
Ahead, Bayshore, Long Island.
702
00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:50,600
And now, a pleasant half hour on a
ferry.
703
00:48:50,940 --> 00:48:53,000
And then, Fire Island itself.
704
00:48:56,600 --> 00:49:00,040
For Connie, this little holiday is not
as much fun as it might be.
705
00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:03,920
She's wondering if Barry has ever gotten
around to leaving that studio of his.
706
00:49:04,140 --> 00:49:08,040
If it were really a den of iniquity, a
30 by 40 bedroom.
707
00:49:09,820 --> 00:49:10,860
Bayshore, Long Island.
708
00:49:11,290 --> 00:49:13,410
and the beginning of the delightful trip
across the bay.
709
00:49:13,870 --> 00:49:18,030
The car well cared for for the weekend,
Leslie and the girls are looking forward
710
00:49:18,030 --> 00:49:20,890
to a relaxing ride which almost can seem
like a sea voyage.
711
00:49:21,990 --> 00:49:26,070
On the walk, dozens of other people who
share the same expectations of a couple
712
00:49:26,070 --> 00:49:28,150
of days in the Fire Island sun and surf.
713
00:49:28,950 --> 00:49:31,110
The ride itself will take about half an
hour.
714
00:49:31,730 --> 00:49:34,530
Plenty of time to forget the long ride
out from New York City.
715
00:49:35,180 --> 00:49:39,060
What a great feeling for the girls to be
able to wear the kind of resort clothes
716
00:49:39,060 --> 00:49:43,280
which really take away the cares of city
living with all its soot and grime.
717
00:49:43,780 --> 00:49:47,360
Up on the boat, a solidly designed
affair which can accommodate a hundred
718
00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:48,360
passengers.
719
00:49:49,160 --> 00:49:52,700
Naturally, on such a day, they take the
upper deck where they can see the whole
720
00:49:52,700 --> 00:49:56,920
bay with its lusciously blue waters and
waves of sparkling white caps.
721
00:49:57,380 --> 00:50:01,480
It's a paradise for girls marooned all
week in the granite canyons of the city.
722
00:50:02,510 --> 00:50:05,770
As luck falls for them, they've got
seats at the side of the ferry.
723
00:50:08,030 --> 00:50:11,550
The rest of the passengers are just as
eager to get going as they are.
724
00:50:12,390 --> 00:50:14,870
Leslie must love being surrounded by
such girls.
725
00:50:15,450 --> 00:50:18,510
With a bong and a cheer, the crowd is
off for the magical island.
726
00:50:19,130 --> 00:50:23,390
And the boat is off on its too short
journey across this lovely bay, one of
727
00:50:23,390 --> 00:50:24,670
the few of its kind in the world.
728
00:50:25,430 --> 00:50:29,530
It must be wonderful to be as rich as
Leslie and be able to spend a weekend
729
00:50:29,530 --> 00:50:31,010
with such a covey of beauties.
730
00:50:31,850 --> 00:50:35,330
Even the water seems to be playful this
day as the boat heads off.
731
00:50:36,370 --> 00:50:40,450
Waves gaily splash against the side of
the ferry, and the bay itself is
732
00:50:40,450 --> 00:50:44,230
peaceful and offers a kind invitation
for all lovers of water sports.
733
00:50:44,890 --> 00:50:47,670
Across the waters, the friendly Fire
Island.
734
00:50:48,570 --> 00:50:50,990
Playground of the rich and not so rich.
735
00:50:51,530 --> 00:50:52,730
Not the poor, however.
736
00:50:53,110 --> 00:50:54,790
The economics rule them out.
737
00:50:55,690 --> 00:50:59,850
It almost seems that beauty is a must in
this scene, although Leslie is a little
738
00:50:59,850 --> 00:51:00,950
out of place with these girls.
739
00:51:01,740 --> 00:51:03,060
Lucky for him, he's got wealth.
740
00:51:04,040 --> 00:51:07,540
What riches will eventually be showered
on this foursome of lovelies?
741
00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:13,680
Around them, boats cavort and trace soft
patterns in the afternoon sun.
742
00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:18,060
And the carefree feeling of boats seems
to enter the very mind of those watching
743
00:51:18,060 --> 00:51:19,060
the peaceful scene.
744
00:51:19,720 --> 00:51:24,120
Boats of all kinds set up a friendly
turbulence, and waves come up to the big
745
00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:27,500
ferry and crash against the side in a
sort of aquatic welcome.
746
00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:30,460
Fire Island on the horizon.
747
00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:35,640
The playground of writers and actors and
actresses. By now, the girls wonder what
748
00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:36,640
it's really like.
749
00:51:37,380 --> 00:51:41,740
It started as a simple retreat for the
summer of fairly well-off people. Soon
750
00:51:41,740 --> 00:51:45,760
as the years passed, it was discovered
by tired people in the arts who were
751
00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:49,460
looking for a place to relax and find
calm during the heat of the summer.
752
00:51:49,960 --> 00:51:53,940
They found it on this handsome long spit
of sand a hundred miles long.
753
00:51:55,220 --> 00:51:59,060
Inside of a relatively few years, the
island was overrun with people.
754
00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:04,400
And today, countless houses range up and
down the beach and offer a haven away
755
00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:06,120
from the fierce summer heat of the
cities.
756
00:52:06,640 --> 00:52:10,480
In the many scattered communities on the
island, they found their hideaways.
757
00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:15,220
And now, the four girls are going to get
a chance to see what it is about this
758
00:52:15,220 --> 00:52:19,020
island that endears it to the hearts of
so many people who have the money to buy
759
00:52:19,020 --> 00:52:20,840
whatever happens to please them at the
moment.
760
00:52:21,540 --> 00:52:25,760
The ferry is made fast to the dock, and
the weekend revelers get off and hurry
761
00:52:25,760 --> 00:52:26,920
to their rooms and houses.
762
00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:31,260
for a couple of days of carousing,
loving, and drinking, but mostly just
763
00:52:31,260 --> 00:52:32,320
lazing in the sun.
764
00:52:32,900 --> 00:52:36,980
It's a short walk to Leslie's house, and
the girls can't wait until they have a
765
00:52:36,980 --> 00:52:41,380
chance to get into that superb surf with
the hot white sand of this beach, often
766
00:52:41,380 --> 00:52:42,560
called the world's finest.
767
00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:46,940
In their gay holiday clothing, the four
girls cut a handsome picture.
768
00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:50,700
Surely they must be the most beautiful
girls on this entire island.
769
00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:54,500
And now, the first sight of the
welcoming sea.
770
00:52:56,110 --> 00:52:58,810
Leslie's house is well suited to his
bank account.
771
00:52:59,170 --> 00:53:04,090
It's worth at least $40,000 and stands
on stilts to keep the rising tides from
772
00:53:04,090 --> 00:53:05,090
sweeping it away.
773
00:53:05,490 --> 00:53:09,770
Leslie would like the place to stay out
here and not float back on a tidal wave
774
00:53:09,770 --> 00:53:10,770
to New York.
775
00:53:12,210 --> 00:53:14,670
It's a happy fivesome this Saturday
morning.
776
00:53:15,090 --> 00:53:20,110
Nice drive out, fun ferry ride, and now
something which is amusingly called a
777
00:53:20,110 --> 00:53:23,210
cottage in the circles in which Leslie
travels these days.
778
00:53:23,630 --> 00:53:25,070
Going up the stairs...
779
00:53:25,310 --> 00:53:27,570
It almost seems like they're mounting a
12-room throne.
780
00:53:28,290 --> 00:53:32,370
The first actual feel of the sun deck
under their feet seems to make the girls
781
00:53:32,370 --> 00:53:34,270
burst into a girlish kind of joy.
782
00:53:34,890 --> 00:53:38,970
The girls can hardly wait to shed their
exterior clothing and get into their new
783
00:53:38,970 --> 00:53:40,950
bathing suits, which will be christened
this Saturday.
784
00:53:41,970 --> 00:53:46,070
Helga, the only nudist in the group,
can't wait until she finds the proper
785
00:53:46,070 --> 00:53:49,890
spot where she can indulge in her own
personal belief of healthful sun
786
00:53:49,890 --> 00:53:50,890
worship.
787
00:53:50,950 --> 00:53:55,140
The other girls are also each secretly
wondering what it would be like to
788
00:53:55,140 --> 00:53:58,740
follow the example of this sweet girl
who could only be telling them about
789
00:53:58,740 --> 00:54:00,180
nudism for their own good.
790
00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:04,460
Inside, the house is furnished
magnificently.
791
00:54:05,060 --> 00:54:08,080
The taste of five major decorators has
gone into it.
792
00:54:08,420 --> 00:54:13,220
As for the girls, it's off with their
clothes and into bikinis. Bring on that
793
00:54:13,220 --> 00:54:14,220
surf.
794
00:54:14,620 --> 00:54:18,120
Leslie, however, is still the
businessman, even during a weekend of
795
00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:19,120
supposed relaxation.
796
00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:22,640
There's no union to limit the hours for
millionaires.
797
00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:26,020
The girls can't wait to get to the
beach.
798
00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:28,860
Our little pussycats will be the toast
of the beach.
799
00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:32,380
Four superb young female animals in the
prime of their lives.
800
00:54:33,940 --> 00:54:38,320
Leaving Leslie behind to worry about his
bank balance, the four girls go off to
801
00:54:38,320 --> 00:54:41,060
enjoy what has been called the finest
beach in the world.
802
00:54:44,400 --> 00:54:47,640
The beach looks most inviting to these
four lovers of nature.
803
00:54:49,080 --> 00:54:52,040
First, the time-honored ritual of laying
out the blankets.
804
00:54:53,090 --> 00:54:56,730
Normally, the girls would have some
fellows fix up the blankets, but no such
805
00:54:56,730 --> 00:54:57,730
luck this time.
806
00:54:57,850 --> 00:55:01,070
Fighting the wind, the girls present an
appealing picture to the rest of the
807
00:55:01,070 --> 00:55:02,070
people on Ocean Beach.
808
00:55:08,030 --> 00:55:11,650
This weekend, as always, some of the
most interesting people from New York
809
00:55:11,650 --> 00:55:14,750
are spending a couple of days away from
future wear and tear on their systems.
810
00:55:16,750 --> 00:55:19,930
Enough with blankets for these girls.
Now it's bathing time.
811
00:55:20,560 --> 00:55:24,260
Sure, they can swim, but it wouldn't
look maidenly to suddenly display the
812
00:55:24,260 --> 00:55:25,260
skill of a porpoise.
813
00:55:26,460 --> 00:55:27,880
Helga is one of the first in.
814
00:55:36,920 --> 00:55:40,580
Tracy's a bit chicken. A little touch of
some cool water and she turns tail.
815
00:55:49,900 --> 00:55:51,620
The girls present a fetching picture.
816
00:55:53,720 --> 00:55:57,760
Their bikinis are just tiny enough to
make an old man wish for the summers of
817
00:55:57,760 --> 00:56:01,660
his youth, and just large enough to keep
the women from running these competitors
818
00:56:01,660 --> 00:56:02,660
off the beach.
819
00:56:05,620 --> 00:56:08,620
These bikinis are made of some magical
man-made fibers.
820
00:56:08,920 --> 00:56:12,880
They're okay for the daytime, but
naturally the girls have flannel bikinis
821
00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:14,220
for the cool nights on the beach.
822
00:56:16,580 --> 00:56:18,660
An inspiring group of girls.
823
00:56:20,270 --> 00:56:24,830
As they cavort around the beach, one
wonders about the odd viewpoint of a
824
00:56:24,830 --> 00:56:28,950
segment of society which seems to insist
that the human body must be kept hidden
825
00:56:28,950 --> 00:56:29,950
from view.
826
00:56:30,470 --> 00:56:34,890
Formed by the forces of nature, these
four girls represent all that is divine
827
00:56:34,890 --> 00:56:35,890
in human life.
828
00:56:55,050 --> 00:56:57,330
Too soon, the end of a lovely day.
829
00:56:58,350 --> 00:57:02,450
Saturday, which comes all too far in the
future of the week, ends all too soon.
830
00:57:03,130 --> 00:57:07,290
But for the girls, it's not that the
weekend is half over, but that there's
831
00:57:07,290 --> 00:57:08,810
still half the weekend to enjoy.
832
00:57:09,530 --> 00:57:13,070
For Liz, there's always Leslie to while
away the evening hours with.
833
00:57:13,470 --> 00:57:17,210
For the other girls, although there are
no boyfriends to pass the time without
834
00:57:17,210 --> 00:57:21,290
here, there's at least the thought that
this evening they'll rest in downy deep
835
00:57:21,290 --> 00:57:23,730
beds, bearing the crest of a
millionaire.
836
00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:30,680
For the girls, this has been a wonderful
Saturday.
837
00:57:31,300 --> 00:57:35,500
The everyday cares of the city are
behind them, and there's still Sunday to
838
00:57:35,500 --> 00:57:36,500
look forward to.
839
00:57:36,800 --> 00:57:39,780
Connie, of course, was still wondering
what was going on back in New York.
840
00:57:40,100 --> 00:57:42,980
Was Barry upset about the fact that
Connie had walked out on him?
841
00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:45,620
Or was he just making the best of the
situation?
842
00:57:46,620 --> 00:57:50,680
Liz was hoping that Leslie had enjoyed
the day, even though he chose to remain
843
00:57:50,680 --> 00:57:53,560
in the house, thinking up new ideas
about making more money.
844
00:57:54,460 --> 00:57:55,540
Helga and Tracy...
845
00:57:55,950 --> 00:57:59,090
were just luxuriating in being in this
playground of the rich.
846
00:58:09,030 --> 00:58:13,910
The soft evening breeze caressed the
surf as it rolled in with a gentle purr.
847
00:58:14,130 --> 00:58:15,910
A peaceful scene, this.
848
00:58:17,250 --> 00:58:20,350
Joe thought that it might be time to let
the audience be free from the
849
00:58:20,350 --> 00:58:22,990
distractions of always having men around
with the four girls.
850
00:58:23,550 --> 00:58:26,630
As he saw the plot, Leslie had a fine
little power cruiser.
851
00:58:30,490 --> 00:58:34,750
Tracy knows how to pilot the boat, and
the girls just feel like going off and
852
00:58:34,750 --> 00:58:36,010
gossiping amongst themselves.
853
00:58:37,790 --> 00:58:41,650
Leslie forgoes the pleasure of boating
and stays at the house to discuss
854
00:58:41,650 --> 00:58:43,910
business with an acquaintance who's also
on the island.
855
00:58:45,070 --> 00:58:48,970
Ed, the writer, still thinks the film
should be in color and points out how
856
00:58:48,970 --> 00:58:51,510
photogenic the next sequence would be if
shot that way.
857
00:59:58,850 --> 01:00:01,390
Frantic. All weekend he's been trying to
get Connie.
858
01:00:01,890 --> 01:00:03,750
It's Monday night and he tries again.
859
01:00:03,990 --> 01:00:06,490
When the phone rings, she's half hoping
it'll be Barry.
860
01:00:07,610 --> 01:00:09,510
He starts to whisper sweet things.
861
01:00:10,430 --> 01:00:12,550
But she's playing the part of a wronged
woman.
862
01:00:18,270 --> 01:00:21,370
By now the conference at the office was
beginning to get wearying.
863
01:00:21,610 --> 01:00:24,530
Each had a different idea of how to
handle the remainder of the film.
864
01:00:24,850 --> 01:00:26,910
They raised their voices and shouted a
bit.
865
01:00:27,390 --> 01:00:29,530
and sometimes acted like grade school
children.
866
01:00:29,930 --> 01:00:32,430
But finally, they began to come to some
common agreement.
867
01:00:33,150 --> 01:00:35,970
Friends again, they continued to develop
their story.
868
01:00:38,950 --> 01:00:42,670
During the weekend, Connie had really
wished that she could be back in Barry's
869
01:00:42,670 --> 01:00:47,130
arms. But now, having heard from him,
she found it easy to make him beg to
870
01:00:47,130 --> 01:00:48,130
bring him to heel.
871
01:00:48,290 --> 01:00:52,130
Maybe, incidentally, to get him to give
up his shenanigans so she can make an
872
01:00:52,130 --> 01:00:53,130
honest man out of him.
873
01:00:55,290 --> 01:00:56,430
As for Barry...
874
01:00:56,670 --> 01:00:59,890
Now that his girl seems out of his
reach, he suddenly starts thinking of
875
01:00:59,890 --> 01:01:01,470
all the reasons he loved her so much.
876
01:01:02,270 --> 01:01:06,250
As for Connie, she's smart enough to
know that she can play this game just so
877
01:01:06,250 --> 01:01:08,750
far. She doesn't want to lose Barry
completely.
878
01:01:10,150 --> 01:01:13,850
Minute by minute, Connie mounts even
higher on this pedestal that Barry's
879
01:01:13,850 --> 01:01:14,850
built in his mind.
880
01:01:15,630 --> 01:01:18,670
She's an angel, a gift from the very
heavens themselves.
881
01:01:19,250 --> 01:01:21,890
When she walks, it's the undulations of
an Aphrodite.
882
01:01:22,110 --> 01:01:24,450
When she talks, even Plato stops to
listen.
883
01:01:25,040 --> 01:01:29,180
Her hair rivals the setting sun, and her
skin is like apricot yogurt.
884
01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:33,500
The ache in his heart grows as each
minute passes.
885
01:01:34,420 --> 01:01:37,820
Connie's trying to figure out just when
to let him come panting back to her.
886
01:01:40,580 --> 01:01:43,840
How lucky Barry was to have found the
only girl in the world.
887
01:01:44,220 --> 01:01:47,080
He wants to win back this paragon of all
things.
888
01:01:48,120 --> 01:01:49,320
The boys were pleased.
889
01:01:49,740 --> 01:01:52,400
They'd added that extra touch of
mischief in their screenplay.
890
01:01:52,810 --> 01:01:54,710
which would allow them to have fun with
their characters.
891
01:01:55,350 --> 01:01:58,710
Things were proceeding well, but they
decided that they must begin to tie up
892
01:01:58,710 --> 01:02:02,450
all the loose ends and get their people
to resolve their problems one way or
893
01:02:02,450 --> 01:02:06,030
another. They again come to an agreement
and sail on with the story.
894
01:02:07,810 --> 01:02:12,230
Friday night that same week, one of
Liz's friends has invited her to a party
895
01:02:12,230 --> 01:02:13,390
at a studio in the village.
896
01:02:14,450 --> 01:02:17,870
Supposedly just a nice group of people
and maybe a few laughs along with a many
897
01:02:17,870 --> 01:02:19,970
drinks. Plenty of extra guys.
898
01:02:20,510 --> 01:02:22,870
So Liz has asked Connie to come along
and have some fun.
899
01:02:23,630 --> 01:02:25,090
Leslie also has been invited.
900
01:02:25,610 --> 01:02:28,490
It's not often that a millionaire gets
around to attending one of these
901
01:02:28,490 --> 01:02:30,810
soirees. He's a coup for the hosters.
902
01:02:33,370 --> 01:02:37,510
But like all millionaires, last things
come up to delay his having fun.
903
01:02:38,310 --> 01:02:41,350
Leslie's off to pay off his Mimi, his
former mistress.
904
01:02:42,050 --> 01:02:44,070
He'll be back later on in the evening.
905
01:02:53,700 --> 01:02:58,300
Half filled up with drinks already and
the party's in high gear, the guests
906
01:02:58,300 --> 01:02:59,660
greet the girls with enthusiasm.
907
01:03:00,440 --> 01:03:04,200
At least they bathe frequently, which is
more than can be said for too many of
908
01:03:04,200 --> 01:03:05,200
the village girls.
909
01:03:05,660 --> 01:03:09,480
If the guys here can't make time with
them, they'll at least enjoy sniffing
910
01:03:09,480 --> 01:03:10,520
their perfumed earlobes.
911
01:03:10,960 --> 01:03:13,440
For Connie, this is her first village
party.
912
01:03:13,900 --> 01:03:16,340
It seems much less wicked than she'd
heard.
913
01:03:17,160 --> 01:03:19,340
The fellows and girls all seemed pretty
normal.
914
01:03:19,900 --> 01:03:21,040
This might be fun.
915
01:03:22,920 --> 01:03:27,540
In the meantime, Mimi is again consoling
herself with a bottle.
916
01:03:28,060 --> 01:03:29,380
She's on her way to her record.
917
01:03:29,740 --> 01:03:33,360
With this kind of training, she'll be
able to enter the Olympics and sweep all
918
01:03:33,360 --> 01:03:35,320
competition in her field of
specialization.
919
01:03:36,220 --> 01:03:40,280
Leslie, annoyed as having to make this
trip, is nonetheless relieved and just a
920
01:03:40,280 --> 01:03:41,280
little happy.
921
01:03:41,580 --> 01:03:44,180
Getting rid of this booze hound is a
weight off his shoulders.
922
01:03:45,020 --> 01:03:48,620
Sure, she once gave him lots of thrills
and laughs, but now she's on the way
923
01:03:48,620 --> 01:03:52,660
down. It won't be long before she's
patrolling the joints and bars, looking
924
01:03:52,660 --> 01:03:56,100
for beers or wine from anybody old
standards were around.
925
01:03:58,840 --> 01:04:02,040
Liz took a fast glance around and came
to a fast conclusion.
926
01:04:02,580 --> 01:04:04,980
There were swingers here, sure as she
could see.
927
01:04:23,140 --> 01:04:24,700
Turn off the music, please.
928
01:04:26,460 --> 01:04:29,620
As for
929
01:04:29,620 --> 01:04:44,120
Connie,
930
01:04:44,280 --> 01:04:46,220
she began to get just a bit nervous.
931
01:04:47,640 --> 01:04:50,260
First, the boy was getting very fancy
with his talk.
932
01:04:50,780 --> 01:04:53,060
Names like Reich, Freud, de Sade.
933
01:04:53,580 --> 01:04:57,500
She knew they were writers of some kind
and tried to remember where she'd heard
934
01:04:57,500 --> 01:04:58,499
their names.
935
01:04:58,500 --> 01:05:01,740
Connie tried to tell the nibbler to cut
it out, you'll lick off my expensive
936
01:05:01,740 --> 01:05:02,740
perfume.
937
01:05:04,560 --> 01:05:06,180
Mmm, that ear was delicious.
938
01:05:06,680 --> 01:05:09,000
May I avail myself of a second helping?
939
01:05:09,520 --> 01:05:13,320
Now wait a minute, fella. My ear, my
shoulder, where will this end?
940
01:05:13,800 --> 01:05:15,180
I've had enough, she yelled.
941
01:05:16,280 --> 01:05:18,180
Liz, in the meantime, was in her
element.
942
01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:21,680
When it comes to men, girls like Liz
have second sight.
943
01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:26,180
Connie, on the other hand, really means
it when she gets angry at a guy for
944
01:05:26,180 --> 01:05:27,180
getting out of line.
945
01:05:27,380 --> 01:05:28,980
She didn't even wait to fix her dress.
946
01:05:29,240 --> 01:05:31,080
She just wants to get away from the
scene.
947
01:05:31,720 --> 01:05:33,760
The guy just shrugs this kid off.
948
01:05:34,120 --> 01:05:35,620
What a bird, he thinks.
949
01:05:36,520 --> 01:05:37,780
Actually, he couldn't care less.
950
01:05:38,260 --> 01:05:40,840
Not with all the other with it girls at
this party.
951
01:05:53,180 --> 01:05:54,180
Meanwhile,
952
01:05:55,020 --> 01:05:57,920
back at the stoop, there's Barry, dug in
for the duration.
953
01:05:58,520 --> 01:06:01,420
He's composed a dozen poems of apology
in his mind.
954
01:06:01,980 --> 01:06:05,140
She'll listen to them if he has to tie a
cement block on her feet.
955
01:06:05,820 --> 01:06:08,920
Oh, dearest, he thinks, will you forgive
this unworthy one?
956
01:06:09,620 --> 01:06:12,040
Connie's heart leaps into her throat as
she sees Barry.
957
01:06:12,560 --> 01:06:16,080
All the nasty things she's thought of to
belt him with her right out the window.
958
01:06:16,670 --> 01:06:19,390
What a joyful homecoming from so sordid
an evening.
959
01:06:19,830 --> 01:06:23,430
After those characters at the party,
Barry looks like Prince Valiant.
960
01:06:23,910 --> 01:06:26,170
There's no need for either of them to
say anything.
961
01:06:26,470 --> 01:06:31,030
Their minds speak the common thoughts
and all's well with their private little
962
01:06:31,030 --> 01:06:32,030
world.
963
01:06:38,410 --> 01:06:43,510
Now the participants in this Friday
night escapade have settled down to a
964
01:06:43,510 --> 01:06:44,510
good old-fashioned block.
965
01:06:45,150 --> 01:06:47,230
It's La Dolce Vita, village style.
966
01:06:47,970 --> 01:06:49,770
Whiskey flows, girls undulate.
967
01:06:50,050 --> 01:06:53,950
The music raises their blood to a
feverish roar, and civilization's
968
01:06:53,950 --> 01:06:55,170
trappings begin to melt away.
969
01:06:55,950 --> 01:06:58,970
Just a nice group of boys and girls
letting their hair down.
970
01:07:00,290 --> 01:07:03,510
It now has become apparent that the
guest list at this gathering has been
971
01:07:03,510 --> 01:07:04,510
carefully selected.
972
01:07:04,990 --> 01:07:08,070
One of the few misfits, according to
their way of life, had been Connie.
973
01:07:08,730 --> 01:07:10,390
Liz loves this kind of party.
974
01:07:10,670 --> 01:07:13,670
She's found herself a few guys and
flitted from one to the other.
975
01:07:14,270 --> 01:07:17,650
As for the other girls, they don't have
to give any points away to Liz in the
976
01:07:17,650 --> 01:07:18,650
fun fruit sticks.
977
01:07:19,250 --> 01:07:23,250
One of the girls, a Coney Island exotic
dancer, decides to show these people
978
01:07:23,250 --> 01:07:24,750
what a real artiste is like.
979
01:07:25,030 --> 01:07:28,890
She begins a seductive hip movement,
which mesmerizes her audience.
980
01:07:29,490 --> 01:07:34,330
It's like a Swiss movement on a clock,
as her mechanism begins to tick, tock,
981
01:07:34,330 --> 01:07:35,550
tick, tock.
982
01:07:36,390 --> 01:07:39,790
She's heard that a watch company was
going to have a sales convention, and
983
01:07:39,790 --> 01:07:41,490
she thought she'd practice for her
audition.
984
01:07:44,170 --> 01:07:47,530
Liz has found herself a few guys, and
her pulsating body has gotten them into
985
01:07:47,530 --> 01:07:48,830
the rhythms of ancient rites.
986
01:08:37,609 --> 01:08:42,290
A few years from now, this girl, who was
once as innocent a child as any, will be
987
01:08:42,290 --> 01:08:43,890
reduced to being the commonest tramp.
988
01:08:44,990 --> 01:08:48,950
As Leslie writes his most touching
farewell letter, Mimi is already
989
01:08:48,950 --> 01:08:52,450
thinking of a liquor store she can buy
with the generous amount of buy-buy
990
01:08:52,450 --> 01:08:53,830
money Leslie's handing out.
991
01:08:57,310 --> 01:09:00,290
Just think, all that booze at wholesale
prices.
992
01:09:18,729 --> 01:09:21,850
When Leslie leaves, Mimi is only
momentarily depressed.
993
01:09:22,250 --> 01:09:23,390
Then she brightens.
994
01:09:23,850 --> 01:09:24,850
Leslie's getting old.
995
01:09:25,090 --> 01:09:28,470
With this much money, Mimi knows of a
certain young and handsome lingerie
996
01:09:28,470 --> 01:09:30,270
salesman who likes to have a drink or
two.
997
01:09:30,950 --> 01:09:32,689
Life may still be beautiful.
998
01:09:35,510 --> 01:09:38,970
And now, with a great sense of
anticipation of the fun he'll have at
999
01:09:38,970 --> 01:09:40,590
the party, Leslie drives up.
1000
01:09:40,930 --> 01:09:44,609
Ed, the writer, was still sticking to
his guns about this being a color film.
1001
01:09:45,109 --> 01:09:47,870
It was his turn to write the remainder
of the big party scene.
1002
01:09:48,359 --> 01:09:51,000
And in his mind, it still had the magic
of color.
