1
00:02:08,962 --> 00:02:10,076
All right, Joe, 00:02:11,214
style="style. default_1">let's
try some Pope Dixon.
3
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:13,550
Put your hand right there,
4
00:02:14,342 --> 00:02:17,530
and one, two, three.
5
00:02:43,788 --> 00:02:45,123
Keep playing.
6
00:02:57,051 --> 00:02:58,052
Kate.
7
00:03:16,029 --> 00:03:17,194
We
interrupt this broadcast
8
00:03:17,206 --> 00:03:18,382
for
the following message
9
00:03:18,406 --> 00:03:19,988
from
President Truman, who is giving
10
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:21,594
an
address from the White House.
11
00:03:21,618 --> 00:03:22,619
Joe?
12
00:03:23,828 --> 00:03:24,722
Joe?
13
00:03:24,746 --> 00:03:28,058
My
fellow citizens, at noon today,
14
00:03:28,082 --> 00:03:30,332
I sent
a message to the Congress
15
00:03:30,344 --> 00:03:32,605
about
the situation in Korea.
16
00:03:32,629 --> 00:03:33,877
Ahem. Sam, take your
brother to bed.
17
00:03:33,889 --> 00:03:35,149
...talk to you tonight
18
00:03:35,173 --> 00:03:36,925
-about that situation. - Sam.
19
00:03:37,175 --> 00:03:38,903
And
about what it means 00:03:40,654
style="style. default_1">for the
security of the United States.
21
00:03:40,678 --> 00:03:41,864
Let's go, Joe.
22
00:03:41,888 --> 00:03:43,357
And to our hopes 00:03:44,849
style="style. default_1">for
peace in the world.
24
00:03:45,725 --> 00:03:47,528
Korea
is a small country,
25
00:03:47,540 --> 00:03:49,354
thousands
of miles away.
26
00:03:49,896 --> 00:03:51,824
But
what is happening there
27
00:03:51,836 --> 00:03:53,775
is
important to every American.
28
00:03:54,817 --> 00:03:56,319
What do you mean you
need to go back?
29
00:03:56,569 --> 00:03:58,797
You're just gonna have to
get out of it somehow!
30
00:03:58,821 --> 00:04:01,258
You've done enough, Joe!
Your leg...
31
00:04:01,282 --> 00:04:05,262
We've been through this. I
can't serve if I can't fight.
32
00:04:05,286 --> 00:04:09,099
I got to go and play for the boys.
The whole band is going, babe.
33
00:04:09,123 --> 00:04:11,501
I... I don't have a choice.
34
00:05:50,933 --> 00:05:51,933
Shit!
35
00:05:52,226 --> 00:05:54,771
- Well done, Archibald.
- That's Charlie Parker, man.
36
00:05:55,021 --> 00:05:58,024
You'll be fine. I'm sure
Bird screws up all the time.
37
00:05:59,776 --> 00:06:00,860
Come on, let's go again.
38
00:06:50,660 --> 00:06:51,660
What?
39
00:06:51,786 --> 00:06:55,891
- I blew it. Again.
- See, there's your mistake, Arch.
40
00:06:55,915 --> 00:06:58,334
You're supposed to blow it.
41
00:07:01,462 --> 00:07:03,524
Well, I could use a beer.
42
00:07:12,765 --> 00:07:14,267
Joey, where did you
get this shit?
43
00:07:14,684 --> 00:07:16,578
It sounds like something
my grandma listens to.
44
00:07:16,602 --> 00:07:17,602
Thrift store.
45
00:07:17,812 --> 00:07:22,167
"The Pearls." Jelly Roll Morton.
1935. It's pretty good, huh?
46
00:07:22,191 --> 00:07:25,921
No, Jerry Lee Lewis is pretty good.
This... this is pretty stale.
47
00:07:25,945 --> 00:07:28,865
I don't know. I like it.
48
00:07:29,657 --> 00:07:31,343
We can check out
Bay River tonight.
49
00:07:31,367 --> 00:07:33,762
I took Jenny Tannenbaum
to the Bay last Saturday.
50
00:07:33,786 --> 00:07:35,246
Yeah, we know, Bud.
51
00:07:35,455 --> 00:07:37,558
There's probably a lot of
single dames out there.
52
00:07:37,582 --> 00:07:39,125
Come on, Lou. Bay
River's getting old.
53
00:07:39,333 --> 00:07:41,770
Chasing beautiful women
will never get old, Joe.
54
00:07:41,794 --> 00:07:44,481
Good thing, 'cause you're
never gonna catch one.
55
00:07:47,592 --> 00:07:48,968
- I'm out.
- Ah!
56
00:07:49,260 --> 00:07:50,720
Oh, shit.
57
00:07:51,554 --> 00:07:52,554
Are we out of booze?
58
00:07:53,806 --> 00:07:55,683
Loser's gotta pick up.
59
00:07:55,933 --> 00:07:58,912
Mmm. if Joe's leaving, I'm
turning on the radio.
60
00:07:58,936 --> 00:08:01,647
I think there's some gin left
over from a couple of weeks ago.
61
00:08:01,898 --> 00:08:04,775
- Where?
- In the bar. He barely touched it.
62
00:08:12,450 --> 00:08:14,368
Yo! Yo! Sammy!
63
00:08:15,453 --> 00:08:18,122
Look at this college boy.
Are you back for break?
64
00:08:18,498 --> 00:08:20,708
Tony, this is Gene. She
came down for the week.
65
00:08:21,334 --> 00:08:23,604
Hi, Gene. Where you from?
66
00:08:23,628 --> 00:08:27,048
She's from up north. We met at Berkeley.
Don't hold it against her, though.
67
00:08:27,507 --> 00:08:29,133
Sam, I don't think
I could if tried.
68
00:08:30,051 --> 00:08:31,820
Gene, this is Tony Pacarelli,
69
00:08:31,844 --> 00:08:34,448
Frankie Calabrese,
Two-Eye Tallucci,
70
00:08:34,472 --> 00:08:35,640
Rocco the Fish.
71
00:08:36,807 --> 00:08:38,100
And that's Wendell.
72
00:08:38,267 --> 00:08:39,769
Wendell Gleeson.
73
00:08:40,478 --> 00:08:41,812
Pleasure's all mine.
74
00:08:47,401 --> 00:08:50,530
So Richie McGillicuddy decides he's gonna
climb the gate to get into the party.
75
00:08:50,738 --> 00:08:52,633
Completely loaded, obviously.
76
00:08:52,657 --> 00:08:56,553
So he gets to the top. He's almost there.
I mean, he is so close.
77
00:08:56,577 --> 00:08:59,973
And the guy completely wipes out.
Lands right on the family jewels.
78
00:08:59,997 --> 00:09:02,893
But get this, the gate
was open the whole time.
79
00:09:07,672 --> 00:09:09,525
It's not your fault
you're a ditz, Arch.
80
00:09:09,549 --> 00:09:10,609
Got it.
81
00:09:10,633 --> 00:09:12,277
- Whatever.
- No, seriously,
82
00:09:12,301 --> 00:09:15,096
these things run in families. You
just inherited the ditz gene.
83
00:09:17,306 --> 00:09:18,306
Didn't mean it, Arch.
84
00:09:20,434 --> 00:09:23,229
- You think Cindy Merkle likes musicians?
- Cindy Merkle?
85
00:09:24,355 --> 00:09:25,355
Remind me again.
86
00:09:25,606 --> 00:09:28,192
If she was on a sinking ship, she
wouldn't need a life jacket.
87
00:09:29,026 --> 00:09:31,255
Okay, I definitely
know Cindy Merkle.
88
00:09:32,196 --> 00:09:33,194
That was "Sleep Walk"
89
00:09:33,206 --> 00:09:34,216
by
Santo and Johnny.
90
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:35,739
What
a night here with me,
91
00:09:35,751 --> 00:09:37,261
your
man, Big Al Pastor
92
00:09:37,285 --> 00:09:39,596
on K201, The South Side.
93
00:09:39,620 --> 00:09:40,806
All the
young folks out there tonight
94
00:09:40,818 --> 00:09:42,015
might
not know the name,
95
00:09:42,039 --> 00:09:43,288
but
you old cats 00:09:44,560
style="style. default_1">will
remember Pope Dixon.
97
00:09:44,584 --> 00:09:46,166
That's
right, the pope, Pope
98
00:09:46,178 --> 00:09:47,771
Dixon!Get ready for this.
99
00:09:47,795 --> 00:09:48,689
Turn it up.
100
00:09:48,701 --> 00:09:49,606
In LA tonight,
101
00:09:49,630 --> 00:09:50,807
playing
on Central Avenue
102
00:09:50,819 --> 00:09:52,008
at
the one and only Tritone.
103
00:09:52,758 --> 00:09:54,135
Lou, turn it back!
104
00:09:54,927 --> 00:09:56,446
What?
105
00:09:56,470 --> 00:09:57,343
So
if you wanna take a trip
106
00:09:57,355 --> 00:09:58,240
down
memory lane,
107
00:09:58,264 --> 00:10:00,099
head out
there and see Pope play live!
108
00:10:00,516 --> 00:10:01,827
Boy, I wish I could.
109
00:10:01,851 --> 00:10:02,599
-Now here's one of my
110
00:10:02,611 --> 00:10:03,370
favorites.-Hey!
111
00:10:03,394 --> 00:10:04,621
Did you guys hear that?
112
00:10:04,645 --> 00:10:07,082
- Yeah, we saw it, too.
- What the hell, man?
113
00:10:07,106 --> 00:10:10,419
- Pope is in town.
- Who gives a rat's ass about the Pope?
114
00:10:10,443 --> 00:10:12,486
Not the Bishop of Rome.
Pope Dixon.
115
00:10:12,737 --> 00:10:14,363
Who's the Bishop of Rome?
116
00:10:14,739 --> 00:10:16,508
You're an idiot. You
know that, right?
117
00:10:16,532 --> 00:10:19,243
- The musician, Pope Dixon!
- That's great and all,
118
00:10:19,619 --> 00:10:21,120
but did you have to
spill the bottle?
119
00:10:21,621 --> 00:10:23,932
It doesn't matter, all right?
This is more important.
120
00:10:23,956 --> 00:10:26,935
- More important than booze?
- Look, Joe, I know Pope's your idol,
121
00:10:26,959 --> 00:10:29,646
but I have to talk to
Cindy Merkle tonight.
122
00:10:29,670 --> 00:10:33,275
Cindy will be in LA for the
rest of her life, Lou.
123
00:10:33,299 --> 00:10:36,028
Pope is in town for one night only.
This might be the last.
124
00:10:36,052 --> 00:10:40,949
- I mean, who knows? He's getting up there.
- Joseph, Cindy is newly single.
125
00:10:40,973 --> 00:10:42,409
All right? The clock is ticking.
126
00:10:42,433 --> 00:10:46,038
There are dozens of young,
eligible bachelors like myself
127
00:10:46,062 --> 00:10:47,438
going out tonight
for one reason.
128
00:10:47,855 --> 00:10:49,732
You mean two reasons.
129
00:10:50,024 --> 00:10:51,668
Okay. But seriously, how are
we gonna get more booze?
130
00:10:51,692 --> 00:10:54,195
- It doesn't matter. Pope is in town.
- No!
131
00:10:54,362 --> 00:10:56,656
We need Sam if we
wanna keep drinking.
132
00:10:56,906 --> 00:10:58,884
What are we waiting for?
Sam's at Heart's, isn't he?
133
00:10:58,908 --> 00:11:01,261
If we're gonna get a cab to Central,
we'll have to head that way anyway.
134
00:11:01,285 --> 00:11:02,285
Uh, listen.
135
00:11:02,620 --> 00:11:06,916
You guys might need hooch to go out,
but I can woo Merkle stone-cold sober.
136
00:11:07,875 --> 00:11:09,561
That's your fourth beer.
137
00:11:09,585 --> 00:11:11,587
Unlike you, Bud, I
can hold my liquor.
138
00:11:14,340 --> 00:11:16,860
What?
139
00:11:16,884 --> 00:11:17,885
What?
140
00:11:18,844 --> 00:11:20,554
Cindy's gotta be at Heart's.
141
00:11:21,097 --> 00:11:22,556
- You just saying that?
- No.
142
00:11:22,890 --> 00:11:25,184
I'm sure of it. Everyone
is back in town.
143
00:11:29,105 --> 00:11:30,523
You think she's with a guy?
144
00:11:30,898 --> 00:11:33,109
I don't know. Probably not?
145
00:11:33,442 --> 00:11:35,462
I gotta know if she's with a guy.
All right?
146
00:11:35,486 --> 00:11:38,590
I can't walk in there with a plan and
then she's standing there with a guy
147
00:11:38,614 --> 00:11:42,219
then I'm standing there looking like a
real ass and I've got nothing to do.
148
00:11:42,243 --> 00:11:43,661
Jesus, Lou. You writing a book?
149
00:11:45,621 --> 00:11:49,125
- Bud, you think she's with a guy?
- No.
150
00:11:50,668 --> 00:11:53,546
- I bet she's with five.
- Come on, Lou.
151
00:11:53,712 --> 00:11:55,339
She's probably by herself.
152
00:11:56,298 --> 00:11:57,758
You won't know unless you go.
153
00:12:01,846 --> 00:12:03,264

anything about Pope Dixon

00:12:40,384 --> 00:12:41,886
playing on Central tonight.

broke our only bottle of booze.

Hmm.

00:12:49,518 --> 00:12:51,621
I knew you played the piano.
176
00:12:51,645 --> 00:12:53,874
I didn't know you were
a fan of the classics.
177
00:12:53,898 --> 00:12:55,750
Oh, of course. Dixon's a legend.
178
00:12:55,774 --> 00:12:57,776
Oh, yeah.
179
00:12:58,736 --> 00:13:02,114
You know, if I didn't have to work
so late, I'd go see him with you.
180
00:13:02,615 --> 00:13:05,844
This damn rock-and-roll music
is messing with my head.
181
00:13:08,662 --> 00:13:12,875
- Have... have you ever been to Central?
- Oh, yeah. I've...
182
00:13:13,167 --> 00:13:16,378
Mmm, must be 10 years ago now.
183
00:13:16,837 --> 00:13:19,423
We used to go to this
club called the...
184
00:13:20,299 --> 00:13:21,299
the Tritone.
185
00:13:22,009 --> 00:13:24,261
And then after that
we'd go to the Dunbar.
186
00:13:24,637 --> 00:13:28,974
The old Dunbar Hotel. Oh, you
should have seen it, Joe.
187
00:13:29,308 --> 00:13:31,852
It was the finest black
hotel in the country.
188
00:13:32,311 --> 00:13:34,605
- All the greats stayed there.
- Mmm.
189
00:13:35,022 --> 00:13:37,441
Your mother know you're going
down there on a Friday night?
190
00:13:38,108 --> 00:13:39,860
Uh, of course.
191
00:13:40,069 --> 00:13:42,881
Of course.
192
00:13:42,905 --> 00:13:45,699
You know, I have an excellent
ear for bullshit, Mr. Grover.
193
00:13:46,534 --> 00:13:49,012
Okay, look, I'm just trying
to have a little fun, okay?
194
00:13:49,036 --> 00:13:50,889
Joey's talking about
going to Central Avenue
195
00:13:50,913 --> 00:13:53,958
and I'm not going down there
unless I've got... booze.
196
00:13:54,750 --> 00:13:55,727
Yeah. Oh, yeah.
197
00:13:55,751 --> 00:13:58,897
I was a professional
bullshitter once upon a time.
198
00:13:58,921 --> 00:13:59,898
Yeah.
199
00:13:59,922 --> 00:14:01,691
- Mr. Hubbard.
- Hey, Sam.
200
00:14:01,715 --> 00:14:04,718
- Will you excuse us for a moment?
- Oh, of course. Just be good.
201
00:14:07,221 --> 00:14:10,641
Your moron friend seems to think you're
all going to South Central tonight?
202
00:14:11,100 --> 00:14:12,935
Yeah, yeah, I don't know.
203
00:14:13,185 --> 00:14:14,955
Thinking about going to
see Pope Dixon tonight.
204
00:14:14,979 --> 00:14:17,207
Here we go again with this shit.
205
00:14:17,231 --> 00:14:19,167
Come on, Sam. The guy's my hero.
206
00:14:19,191 --> 00:14:21,127
And he's in town, all right?
He's never in town.
207
00:14:21,151 --> 00:14:24,047
You really think that's a good idea?
You on Central Avenue?
208
00:14:24,071 --> 00:14:26,115
At night? "The Four Stooges"?
209
00:14:26,532 --> 00:14:29,034
- It's The Three Stooges.
- What?
210
00:14:29,451 --> 00:14:31,429

00:14:40,504 --> 00:14:42,923
Anyway, weren't you supposed
to be grounded this weekend?
216
00:14:43,507 --> 00:14:44,507
No.
217
00:14:44,633 --> 00:14:46,135
No, that was last Friday.
218
00:14:46,635 --> 00:14:48,864
Taking advantage of Ma
'cause she's out of town.
219
00:14:48,888 --> 00:14:49,888
I'm not.
220
00:14:50,556 --> 00:14:52,367

Hmm.
224
00:15:08,073 --> 00:15:12,178
Hey, uh, boys, this is Clarence.
He likes to be called "Bud."
225
00:15:12,202 --> 00:15:15,473
- He's Deborah's little brother.
- Oh, Debbie.
226
00:15:15,497 --> 00:15:19,126
Mmm. Debbie, Debbie, Debbie.
Mmm.
227
00:15:20,878 --> 00:15:24,983
Look, I got the good fortune of making
sure you don't die this weekend.
228
00:15:25,007 --> 00:15:27,569
So that means your ass is
either home or on the can.
229
00:15:27,593 --> 00:15:29,887
- Sam, come on.
- Why is it so damn urgent?
230
00:15:30,346 --> 00:15:32,026
I'm sure Pope will be
back in LA sometime.
231
00:15:32,264 --> 00:15:35,643
You don't understand.
Pope's getting older.
232
00:15:36,101 --> 00:15:39,647
He's not gonna be around forever, and
when he goes, jazz goes with him.
233
00:15:41,106 --> 00:15:43,400
- Just tell me this isn't about...
- It's not.
234

Hey. Uh, hey.

00:15:50,658 --> 00:15:51,825
Look around you.

00:15:53,410 --> 00:15:56,914
This, this is where you wanna be.
Huh?
238
00:15:58,457 --> 00:16:00,542
This girl right here
keeps looking at you.

00:16:01,293 --> 00:16:02,795
Go talk to her.

00:17:29,548 --> 00:17:31,693
Okay. Come on, Mr. Hubbard. I
know you keep beer back there.
271
00:17:31,717 --> 00:17:35,196
Archibald, I have known
you your whole life.
272
00:17:35,220 --> 00:17:40,035
I know that you're 17. What
would your mother think?
273
00:17:40,059 --> 00:17:42,186
She'd understand. She
drinks all the time.
274
00:17:43,020 --> 00:17:46,541
Cindy, you've had a
boyfriend for three years.
275
00:17:46,565 --> 00:17:47,565
You're cute,
276
00:17:47,608 --> 00:17:50,295
you have a decent personality,
but you're no Monroe.
277
00:17:50,319 --> 00:17:51,904
Let's be honest.
278
00:17:52,237 --> 00:17:55,949
So why don't we just have
some fun tonight, huh?
279
00:17:59,286 --> 00:18:01,914
You think you're real
suave, don't you, Dewey?
280
00:18:03,332 --> 00:18:04,541
Louie.
281
00:18:05,250 --> 00:18:06,502
That's what I said.
282
00:18:06,919 --> 00:18:08,003
Dewey.
283
00:18:12,007 --> 00:18:15,219
What, you feelin' it yet, Garby?
284
00:18:15,969 --> 00:18:16,804
I got...
285
00:18:16,970 --> 00:18:19,824
Yeah, I think he's feeling it.
286
00:18:19,848 --> 00:18:22,202
Oh! Oh, no!
287
00:18:22,226 --> 00:18:23,870
He upchucked in the glass.
288
00:18:23,894 --> 00:18:25,997
You can go, thank you.
289
00:18:28,482 --> 00:18:29,682
Let's get out of here, Archie.
290
00:18:31,401 --> 00:18:34,363
- Back here at 11:00, right?
- Sounds good.
291
00:18:41,703 --> 00:18:45,475
- What the hell, Bud?
- Told ya he couldn't hold his liquor.
292
00:18:45,499 --> 00:18:47,977
- Ugh, what is that?
- Is that chaw?
293
00:18:48,001 --> 00:18:50,629
Don't worry, I'm all right now.
294
00:18:51,672 --> 00:18:54,174
Yeah. Take a stick, please.
295
00:18:55,175 --> 00:18:56,677
Gonna need this for later.
296
00:18:57,469 --> 00:19:01,348
You know, maybe we all could
go get a drink on Central.
297
00:19:02,474 --> 00:19:04,852
If my dad knew we went to
South Central, he'd...
298
00:19:06,979 --> 00:19:08,564
I don't know, I
don't wanna know.
299
00:19:09,273 --> 00:19:13,962
If we all went down to Bay River,
as usual, what's to find out?
300
00:19:13,986 --> 00:19:16,780
Mmm, I gotta be back
here for Merkle.
301
00:19:17,447 --> 00:19:21,094
Come on, let's check it out. Let's
do something different, for once.
302
00:19:21,118 --> 00:19:23,847
I mean this is the Pope
Dixon we're talking about.
303
00:19:23,871 --> 00:19:26,623
Archie, Donnie Hodges
played with Pope.
304
00:19:27,124 --> 00:19:30,043
Bud, Wellman Broad
was in his band.
305
00:19:30,919 --> 00:19:33,755
And Cooper might be there, too.
They all might.
306
00:19:35,507 --> 00:19:36,633
Fine.
307
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:38,695
But she better be
here when I get back.
308
00:19:38,719 --> 00:19:41,072
Oh, no, she's probably running
for the hills as we speak.
309
00:19:45,809 --> 00:19:49,396
- We're just playing with you, Lou.
- Guys, guys! Hey! Hey!
310
00:19:52,482 --> 00:19:53,482
Central Avenue.
311
00:19:56,737 --> 00:19:59,907
- Quick, go! Go! Go! Go!
- Joey!
312
00:20:10,667 --> 00:20:12,103
-
Is this the Tritone? -
313
00:20:12,115 --> 00:20:13,563
You
think I come here often?
314
00:20:13,587 --> 00:20:14,356
There's
this sign 00:20:15,148
style="style. default_1">that
says "Central Avenue."
316
00:20:15,172 --> 00:20:16,774
That's what you asked for.
317
00:20:16,798 --> 00:20:18,610
Can you maybe just
drive a little while
318
00:20:18,634 --> 00:20:21,178
- and I'll let you know...
- I ain't no tour guide, kid.
319
00:20:21,345 --> 00:20:22,387
Get out!
320
00:20:33,106 --> 00:20:34,816
Where the hell are
we supposed to go?
321
00:20:36,026 --> 00:20:37,736
Well, we're not going that way.
322
00:20:38,237 --> 00:20:40,447
That's where we gotta
go, right there.
323
00:20:41,698 --> 00:20:45,011
This is just swell, Joe.
Great Friday night.
324
00:20:45,035 --> 00:20:47,871
We just gotta find someone who
knows where this place is.
325
00:20:50,540 --> 00:20:51,540
Wait.
326
00:20:54,127 --> 00:20:57,023
- Excuse me, ma'am. Uh...
- Oh, Lord.
327
00:20:57,047 --> 00:20:58,047
Ma'am, do you...?
328
00:20:58,298 --> 00:21:01,426
- Do you know where the...?
- No. No, I don't.
329
00:21:09,768 --> 00:21:14,749
Okay, well, Bud's right. We should
go that way towards the lights.
330
00:21:14,773 --> 00:21:16,751
I'm sure he's down
there somewhere.
331
00:21:16,775 --> 00:21:19,528
It always takes you guys so
long to figure out I'm right.
332
00:21:19,736 --> 00:21:22,030
And when have you
been right, ever?
333
00:21:22,656 --> 00:21:24,283
I called the rise
of Fidel Castro.
334
00:21:24,866 --> 00:21:27,011
I called Gigi winning Best Picture.
335
00:21:27,035 --> 00:21:29,722
I called the Dodgers
beating the Sox in six.
336
00:21:29,746 --> 00:21:31,182
You had the Sox in four.
337
00:21:31,206 --> 00:21:32,850
You literally said the Dodgers
would never win in LA.
338
00:21:32,874 --> 00:21:34,811
That was before Sherry went off.
339
00:21:34,835 --> 00:21:36,396
- I can keep going.
- Please don't.
340
00:21:36,420 --> 00:21:38,630
Hey, these guys look our age.
341
00:21:40,173 --> 00:21:42,509
Hey, hey, excuse me?
342
00:21:42,801 --> 00:21:45,721
Hey, guys, do you, uh, do you
know where the Tritone is?
343
00:21:46,305 --> 00:21:49,242
The Tri? What is
this, April Fools?
344
00:21:49,266 --> 00:21:51,935
We, uh, heard Pope Dixon
is playing there.
345
00:21:52,602 --> 00:21:56,189
- Pope Dixon?
- Come on, y'all. We're gonna miss Otis.
346
00:21:56,481 --> 00:21:58,525
- Who's Otis?
- Johnny Otis?
347
00:21:58,859 --> 00:22:01,111
Oh, this is just sad, man.
348
00:22:01,528 --> 00:22:03,697
You know R&B?
349
00:22:04,323 --> 00:22:08,118
Do these cats look like they
got any rhythm or blues?
350
00:22:10,203 --> 00:22:12,223
Just the blues, I guess.
351
00:22:12,247 --> 00:22:14,082
Let's roll out, man.
352
00:22:21,173 --> 00:22:22,173
Let's go.
353
00:22:38,148 --> 00:22:39,858
When I get my hands
on that kid...
354
00:22:40,108 --> 00:22:41,651
He's not a kid, Sam.
355
00:22:42,319 --> 00:22:45,548
You don't know my brother, Gene.
He's gonna get killed.
356
00:22:45,572 --> 00:22:48,158
Unless I find him first
and kill him myself.
357
00:22:49,826 --> 00:22:51,870
Shit!
358
00:23:02,547 --> 00:23:03,733
You watching this?
359
00:23:03,757 --> 00:23:05,777
I already gave it a quarter.
360
00:23:05,801 --> 00:23:07,135
Gimme one of yours.
361
00:23:07,928 --> 00:23:09,471
Hey! What the hell
are you doing?
362
00:23:09,846 --> 00:23:11,890
Look, I need to borrow your car.
I'll be right back.
363
00:23:12,099 --> 00:23:13,576
My ride's in the shop.
It won't take long.
364
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:14,494
- Sam...
- I promise.
365
00:23:14,518 --> 00:23:17,145
Sam, no one drives
"The Bagel" but me.
366
00:23:17,729 --> 00:23:18,814
Hand them back.
367
00:23:19,981 --> 00:23:21,024
Right now.
368
00:23:24,236 --> 00:23:25,821
Yeah, you're real tough.
369
00:23:28,031 --> 00:23:29,950
How do you feel about a
trip to South Central?
370
00:23:34,454 --> 00:23:37,165
Why are all the movies these
days about the end of the world?
371
00:23:37,582 --> 00:23:38,685
There's The Night the World
372
00:23:38,697 --> 00:23:39,811
Ended,The Blob,
373
00:23:39,835 --> 00:23:41,437
Attack of the 50-Foot Woman.
374
00:23:41,461 --> 00:23:43,648
You forgot The Wasp Woman.
375
00:23:43,672 --> 00:23:45,841
They made a flick
about Archie's mom?
376
00:23:46,383 --> 00:23:48,760
Guys, I thought we agreed
no more mom jokes.
377
00:23:55,809 --> 00:23:56,953
Guys.
378
00:24:04,818 --> 00:24:06,528
That sounds promising, huh, Joe?
379
00:24:06,903 --> 00:24:08,280
You think that's him?
380
00:24:08,655 --> 00:24:10,031
It's got to be, right?
381
00:24:33,471 --> 00:24:35,783
- Do you see Pope?
- I don't think so.
382
00:24:35,807 --> 00:24:37,142
Ah, finally!
383
00:24:50,614 --> 00:24:51,781
Thank you.
384
00:24:52,741 --> 00:24:55,493
Whoo! Man, this
place is hopping!
385
00:24:55,785 --> 00:24:57,996
Thank you. Thank you,
thank you, thank you.
386
00:24:59,706 --> 00:25:02,977
We, uh, take a whole lotta pride
in this old joint right here.
387
00:25:03,001 --> 00:25:04,312
- Oh, that's right.
- Uh-huh.
388
00:25:04,336 --> 00:25:07,255
Old man opened the doors
at the start of the Crash.
389
00:25:07,631 --> 00:25:10,008
And, uh, as you all know,
390
00:25:10,425 --> 00:25:13,261
Central ain't what she used to be.
Well...
391
00:25:13,386 --> 00:25:15,889
well, sometimes
good things pass.
392
00:25:16,223 --> 00:25:17,807
But, uh, we like to think, uh...
393
00:25:18,808 --> 00:25:21,561
this place here ain't
changed much since '29.
394
00:25:22,312 --> 00:25:25,917
Now, uh, we might be closing
down next year, but...
395
00:25:26,900 --> 00:25:30,254
Oh, hold on now, hold on now.
But the music ain't stopping.
396
00:25:30,278 --> 00:25:31,278
- Whoo!
- Come on now!
397
00:25:31,363 --> 00:25:33,549
When the toes still bopping,
the music ain't stopping.
398
00:25:33,573 --> 00:25:34,759
That's what I'm talking about.
399
00:25:34,783 --> 00:25:36,802
- We gonna go all night.
- That's right!
400
00:25:36,826 --> 00:25:38,638
We gonna go all mornin'. Hell,
401
00:25:38,662 --> 00:25:40,462
we are gonna go 'til the
globe stops spinning,
402
00:25:40,705 --> 00:25:43,726
'til the kids stop kissin', 'til the
old man in the sea stop fishin'!
403
00:25:43,750 --> 00:25:45,311
What y'all know about that?
404
00:25:45,335 --> 00:25:46,437
Can you hear me now?
405
00:25:46,461 --> 00:25:49,065
Can you hear me?
406
00:25:49,089 --> 00:25:53,319
And, um, on that note, I
wanna call up two cats.
407
00:25:53,343 --> 00:25:58,848
Two cats I call my guy and my
girl, my rock and my pearl.
408
00:25:58,974 --> 00:26:02,119
Ava and Clifford Moore!
409
00:26:02,143 --> 00:26:03,478
Come on out here.
410
00:26:11,903 --> 00:26:13,530
We hope we do this one justice.
411
00:26:13,822 --> 00:26:17,617
One of my favorites, written by
Erroll Garner and Johnny Burke.
412
00:26:17,826 --> 00:26:19,619

- Hey, what did you call her?
463
00:29:29,058 --> 00:29:31,686
What? I couldn't hear that, Sammy.
What'd you say?
464
00:29:32,145 --> 00:29:34,689
Easy, Sam, all right?
I'm a big girl.
465
00:29:34,856 --> 00:29:36,667
Oh, oh. Hey, hey,
466
00:29:36,691 --> 00:29:39,712
it's just playground talk. You
know what I mean? It's just...
467
00:29:39,736 --> 00:29:42,197
Hey, so you didn't
answer my question.
468
00:29:43,406 --> 00:29:46,218
I'm more of a Ford girl, myself.
469
00:29:46,242 --> 00:29:48,608
These Italian models are
a little 00:29:50,997
"style. default_1" >slick
for my taste.
471
00:29:52,123 --> 00:29:53,708
I know you don't mean that.
472
00:29:55,335 --> 00:29:59,088
I think that maybe you just
need to try it out sometime.
473
00:30:01,090 --> 00:30:02,151
What?
474
00:30:06,054 --> 00:30:07,597
Maybe they know where he is.
475
00:30:09,390 --> 00:30:10,390
Come on.
476
00:30:25,532 --> 00:30:27,593
Hey, uh, sorry to bother you,
477
00:30:27,617 --> 00:30:29,786
but you guys were really
something up there.
478
00:30:29,953 --> 00:30:31,287
Thanks.
479
00:30:31,454 --> 00:30:33,790
- Is it okay if we, uh...?
- Yeah, go ahead.
480
00:30:36,125 --> 00:30:38,628
Ahem. I'm, uh, I'm
Joey and this is Bud.
481
00:30:39,295 --> 00:30:40,295
Hey.
482
00:30:41,130 --> 00:30:44,259
We're jazz musicians, too. We
both thought you were great.
483
00:30:44,551 --> 00:30:45,718
Thank you.
484
00:30:46,719 --> 00:30:49,556
So, what brings you two
down here tonight?
485
00:30:49,722 --> 00:30:51,116
It's just, uh...
486
00:30:51,140 --> 00:30:53,101
We wanted to hear some jazz.
487
00:30:53,935 --> 00:30:56,688
Do you guys happen to know if
Pope Dixon is playing tonight?
488
00:30:56,980 --> 00:30:59,041
Uh, yeah. You missed him.
489
00:30:59,065 --> 00:31:01,234
Yeah, I think he's
heading to another club.
490
00:31:01,568 --> 00:31:02,694
Do you know where?
491
00:31:02,986 --> 00:31:05,154
I'm not sure. Clifford?
492
00:31:07,198 --> 00:31:09,200
I'm pretty sure
it's the Cage Bird.
493
00:31:09,659 --> 00:31:10,743
We can go there later.
494
00:31:13,997 --> 00:31:16,624
- Did you see him?
- Yeah, we saw him.
495
00:31:17,750 --> 00:31:18,835
How was he?
496
00:31:19,878 --> 00:31:21,379
He was...
497
00:31:23,006 --> 00:31:24,382
He was Pope.
498
00:31:25,758 --> 00:31:29,012
Why?
499
00:31:29,304 --> 00:31:30,597
Nothing, man.
500
00:31:34,225 --> 00:31:37,145
Yeah. I know, it's weird.
501
00:31:37,353 --> 00:31:40,189
A couple of white guys
into jazz down in Central.
502
00:31:41,274 --> 00:31:44,861
Oh, no, not weird at all.
Way too common, in fact.
503
00:31:45,445 --> 00:31:46,645
- What do you mean?
- Clifford.
504
00:31:48,948 --> 00:31:51,802
Don't listen to my brother.
He can be a bit of a downer.
505
00:31:51,826 --> 00:31:54,787
Yeah, right, ignore
the "negative Negro."
506
00:31:56,581 --> 00:32:00,436
If you two are such big
jazz fans, tell me this...
507
00:32:00,460 --> 00:32:03,296
How did it start?
In the beginning.
508
00:32:05,256 --> 00:32:06,382
Um...
509
00:32:06,966 --> 00:32:09,218
In New Orleans, right?
510
00:32:09,636 --> 00:32:11,030
It was a mixture of
African and Creole...
511
00:32:11,054 --> 00:32:15,516
Jazz is the product of one
thing, and one thing only.
512
00:32:16,517 --> 00:32:17,852
Slavery.
513
00:32:18,686 --> 00:32:20,855
Minstrel shows and
shit like that.
514
00:32:21,189 --> 00:32:23,375
That's what you see when
Pope Dixon is up there.
515
00:32:23,399 --> 00:32:26,945
Happy, positive Negro smiling, putting
on a show for the white folk.
516
00:32:28,696 --> 00:32:31,491
You know, things ain't changed
much in this country, now.
517
00:32:32,408 --> 00:32:33,576
Not really.
518
00:32:40,166 --> 00:32:41,810
That's not what I see
when I hear Pope,
519
00:32:41,834 --> 00:32:43,646
but I guess I never
thought of it like that.
520
00:32:43,670 --> 00:32:45,129
Of course you didn't.
521
00:32:45,713 --> 00:32:48,007
Even black people don't
think of shit like that.
522
00:32:48,549 --> 00:32:53,364
Yeah, but we're not just watching.
I mean, we play, too.
523
00:32:53,388 --> 00:32:54,657
The music matters to us.
524
00:32:56,265 --> 00:33:00,520
Lots of people swing different from Cliff.
Don't let him get to you.
525
00:33:01,854 --> 00:33:02,939
Now...
526
00:33:04,816 --> 00:33:06,859
Jazz is a thick smoke.
527
00:33:07,986 --> 00:33:11,155
It's a smooth rye,
it's a medicine.
528
00:33:12,115 --> 00:33:15,159
It's a path that gets us
through the forks of life.
529
00:33:15,410 --> 00:33:16,619
Gets us through the struggle.
530
00:33:17,829 --> 00:33:19,330
It's passion.
531
00:33:19,914 --> 00:33:21,207
It's love for each other.
532
00:33:23,167 --> 00:33:24,961
It's happiness and pain.
533
00:33:26,212 --> 00:33:27,338
Exactly.
534
00:33:27,630 --> 00:33:31,092
Jazz is great when it has
that pain behind it.
535
00:33:32,719 --> 00:33:34,554
They've never been
through that struggle.
536
00:33:34,804 --> 00:33:38,182
You really think you've been through
Pope Dixon's struggle, Cliff?
537
00:33:38,808 --> 00:33:40,518
Well, you're right.
538
00:33:41,477 --> 00:33:42,937
We haven't, but...
539
00:33:43,896 --> 00:33:46,899
you just got to keep working until
you get that shot, you know.
540
00:33:47,692 --> 00:33:49,294
And you don't have
to take it from us.
541
00:33:49,318 --> 00:33:51,904
You see Pope tonight,
ask him what he thinks.
542
00:33:57,660 --> 00:33:58,661
So.
543
00:33:59,203 --> 00:34:00,848
You two are in a band?
544
00:34:00,872 --> 00:34:02,433
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
545
00:34:02,457 --> 00:34:06,377
Us and our two other friends.
They're, uh, around here somewhere.
546
00:34:06,627 --> 00:34:08,796
- And what do you play?
- Bass.
547
00:34:10,048 --> 00:34:11,841
And Joey plays piano.
548
00:34:13,134 --> 00:34:15,821
This guy is gonna
be the next Mingus.
549
00:34:15,845 --> 00:34:17,698
- Oh, is that right?
- Mm-hmm.
550
00:34:17,722 --> 00:34:20,993
Well, obviously, I'm nowhere
close to Mingus, but...
551
00:34:21,017 --> 00:34:22,351
You know Mingus' stuff?
552
00:34:24,479 --> 00:34:27,732
- Mingus?
- Yeah, yeah, of course.
553
00:34:29,025 --> 00:34:30,359
Give me one second.
554
00:34:36,157 --> 00:34:37,241
What's he doing?
555
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:43,081
You'll see.
556
00:34:56,344 --> 00:34:58,363
- You boys ready?
- For what?
557
00:34:58,387 --> 00:35:00,783
Guess we ain't done just yet.
558
00:35:00,807 --> 00:35:03,851
We got one more request.
559
00:35:04,602 --> 00:35:09,023
We, uh, we're gonna bring up
a couple of rooks to jam.
560
00:35:09,315 --> 00:35:10,542
These boys right here.
561
00:35:10,566 --> 00:35:11,943
What's your name, son?
562
00:35:14,987 --> 00:35:16,072
Joey.
563
00:35:17,073 --> 00:35:19,742
Joey. What do you play, Joey?
564
00:35:21,202 --> 00:35:22,203
Piano.
565
00:35:23,037 --> 00:35:24,539
We got Joey on piano.
566
00:35:25,998 --> 00:35:27,125
How about you, killa?
567
00:35:27,917 --> 00:35:28,917
Bass.
568
00:35:31,879 --> 00:35:33,965
Mighty unusual name for
a young man, "Bass."
569
00:35:34,340 --> 00:35:38,886
- What the hell did they do now?
- Uh, Bud, I play bass.
570
00:35:39,095 --> 00:35:41,347
Bud plays the bass.
571
00:35:41,472 --> 00:35:45,977
Uh, my son will join as well as the
lovely Clara Brown on trumpet.
572
00:35:46,102 --> 00:35:48,622
Here's some of that new,
local Mingus for y'all.
573
00:35:48,646 --> 00:35:49,540
Come on.
574
00:35:49,564 --> 00:35:52,150
All right.
575
00:35:54,694 --> 00:35:57,334
If these cats can't play, Cliff,
it's coming out of your allowance.
576
00:35:58,447 --> 00:35:59,657
Come on, now.
577
00:35:59,949 --> 00:36:01,200
Let's go, Joe.
578
00:36:18,259 --> 00:36:22,138
Why don't you come on down front, killa? I
want everybody to get a good look at ya.
579
00:36:22,513 --> 00:36:24,932
Come on down!
580
00:36:26,392 --> 00:36:27,727
Here's your shot.
581
00:36:46,662 --> 00:36:47,788
Go on.
582
00:38:11,831 --> 00:38:14,041
Oh, the kid on the
drums is fast.
583
00:38:15,001 --> 00:38:17,837
- He's no Krupa.
- No, he's faster than Krupa.
584
00:38:25,428 --> 00:38:26,428
Whoo!
585
00:38:30,308 --> 00:38:31,350
Whoo!
586
00:38:37,189 --> 00:38:38,274
Do you see them?
587
00:38:40,985 --> 00:38:43,070
Sam, can we find this dweeb
and get out of here?
588
00:38:43,321 --> 00:38:44,321
Found him.
589
00:38:50,119 --> 00:38:52,580
- Great, go get him.
- Shut up!
590
00:39:16,937 --> 00:39:18,297
What the heck are
they doing here?
591
00:39:28,449 --> 00:39:29,926
What the fuck was that?
592
00:39:29,950 --> 00:39:33,204
- I'll get him, and you get him.
- Okay.
593
00:39:41,420 --> 00:39:44,382
Whoo-hoo! Yeah!
594
00:40:09,031 --> 00:40:11,409
Yeah. All right.
595
00:40:12,493 --> 00:40:13,702
Sorry.
596
00:40:15,413 --> 00:40:18,392
- Hey, hey, Joe, Joe, we gotta go.
- Hey, yeah.
597
00:40:18,416 --> 00:40:19,726
What are you doing? You're
supposed to get Bud.
598
00:40:19,750 --> 00:40:21,627
- I thought you were getting Bud.
- Shit.
599
00:40:23,170 --> 00:40:25,050
Guys, we'll go out the back, all right?
Come on.
600
00:40:25,131 --> 00:40:26,441
Wait, where is he?
601
00:40:26,465 --> 00:40:28,592
Hey, Bud! Meet us
at the next place!
602
00:40:29,093 --> 00:40:31,178
- Thank you! Thank you!
- What the hell?
603
00:40:32,972 --> 00:40:34,140
Y'all leaving?
604
00:40:44,692 --> 00:40:46,360
Bud's gonna meet us
at the Cage Bird,
605
00:40:46,777 --> 00:40:47,796
that's where Pope's playing.
606
00:40:47,820 --> 00:40:50,006
- Where's that?
- Uh, I don't know.
607
00:40:50,030 --> 00:40:51,907
All these places are
around here somewhere.
608
00:40:52,283 --> 00:40:55,637
It's fine. We'll just
keep walking this way.
609
00:40:55,661 --> 00:40:59,498
Christ, Joe, do you see
where we are right now?
610
00:41:04,378 --> 00:41:07,149
Somebody wanna explain to me
what we're doing right now?
611
00:41:07,173 --> 00:41:10,134
Sorry. I just gotta...
612
00:41:12,595 --> 00:41:14,472
I had to get away
from those guys.
613
00:41:15,014 --> 00:41:17,349
Bad news. They're trying to
take us back to Pasadena.
614
00:41:18,726 --> 00:41:21,997
- Wow, that'd be so terrible.
- We lost your friends.
615
00:41:22,021 --> 00:41:23,606
They're going to the Cage Bird.
616
00:41:25,816 --> 00:41:27,735
You mind showing
me where that is?
617
00:41:29,862 --> 00:41:32,656
If it... if it's not too
far or if it's, uh...
618
00:41:34,158 --> 00:41:39,038
- I get if it's crazy.
- Yeah, why not?
619
00:41:46,462 --> 00:41:47,689
What about Pops?
620
00:41:47,713 --> 00:41:49,858
I mean, we just left the
whole band back there.
621
00:41:49,882 --> 00:41:52,343
The set's over. We're
always coming and going.
622
00:41:54,386 --> 00:41:55,971
Let's go.
623
00:42:10,486 --> 00:42:12,130
You guys hear what
Joey said up there?
624
00:42:12,154 --> 00:42:14,508
He said, "Meet us
at the next place."
625
00:42:14,532 --> 00:42:18,011
Oh, "the next place." That's fantastic.
We all know where that is, right?
626
00:42:18,035 --> 00:42:20,316
They couldn't have gone far.
Let's go this way, all right?
627
00:42:20,704 --> 00:42:22,974
Yeah, you go that way.
I'm gonna go to the car.
628
00:42:22,998 --> 00:42:25,185
Yeah, fine. We'll be able to look
for 'em a lot easier in the car.
629
00:42:25,209 --> 00:42:28,271
No, no, we are not looking for your
stupid punk brother anymore, Sam.
630
00:42:28,295 --> 00:42:29,481
We're going to Bay River.
631
00:42:29,505 --> 00:42:32,192
If we don't find Joey, you came
all the way out here for nothing.
632
00:42:32,216 --> 00:42:34,986
I don't give a rat's ass about Joey.
He's not my problem, okay?
633
00:42:35,010 --> 00:42:37,405
You're a real piece of
work, you know that?
634
00:42:37,429 --> 00:42:39,366
- Will you give us a minute?
- Sam?
635
00:42:39,390 --> 00:42:43,561
- You got it...
- Tony, give me a damn minute, please.
636
00:42:49,108 --> 00:42:51,443
Gene, look, I think you
should head back to my place.
637
00:42:52,444 --> 00:42:54,684
We can call you a cab and I
can meet you after I get Joe.
638
00:42:55,698 --> 00:42:57,842
I get that you're annoyed
with your brother.
639
00:42:57,866 --> 00:43:00,035
Gene, you don't understand.
640
00:43:01,078 --> 00:43:02,718
I don't wanna argue
about this right now.
641
00:43:07,418 --> 00:43:09,628
Did you see your
brother's face up there?
642
00:43:10,588 --> 00:43:12,691
Have you ever really watched
him while he played?
643
00:43:12,715 --> 00:43:14,592
I mean, really watched him?
644
00:43:14,967 --> 00:43:16,385
Let's go!
645
00:43:20,472 --> 00:43:26,270
When he was on that stage, he was home,
and he was free and he was happy.
646
00:43:27,438 --> 00:43:29,106
I think you know that.
647
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:31,942
So I'm staying and
we'll find them.
648
00:43:32,651 --> 00:43:33,651
But...
649
00:43:34,486 --> 00:43:38,782
just don't come down
on him so hard, okay?
650
00:43:43,287 --> 00:43:47,875
Tony, it's okay, you can go. We're
gonna look for him on foot.
651
00:43:51,962 --> 00:43:54,006
Fine, fine! Fine.
652
00:43:55,424 --> 00:43:57,611
Thirty minutes, then I'm gone.
653
00:43:57,635 --> 00:43:59,720
I don't wanna drive around
with you two all night.
654
00:44:00,137 --> 00:44:01,805
Let's find 'em quick, then.
655
00:44:02,598 --> 00:44:05,118
I can't believe we let
you talk us into this.
656
00:44:05,142 --> 00:44:07,811
- Let's just get a cab and go home.
- Feel free.
657
00:44:08,312 --> 00:44:10,272
I'm gonna see Pope
Dixon play tonight.
658
00:44:10,397 --> 00:44:13,918
Yeah, well, I prefer to
see Merkle in my bed.
659
00:44:13,942 --> 00:44:16,945
Okay, come on, Lou,
it's not that bad here.
660
00:44:17,571 --> 00:44:20,759
You can't seriously tell me you're okay
with this, Arch? This place stinks.
661
00:44:20,783 --> 00:44:22,159
Shut up, Lou!
662
00:44:24,328 --> 00:44:25,829
Shut up for one minute.
663
00:44:44,431 --> 00:44:49,728
I'm not just saying this, but
you sound like Etta James.
664
00:44:50,145 --> 00:44:51,373
Better, maybe.
665
00:44:51,397 --> 00:44:56,902
I mean, your voice is so
powerful and silky and...
666
00:44:57,861 --> 00:45:02,366
- Uh, it's just so effortless.
- Did you say "silky," man?
667
00:45:03,158 --> 00:45:04,910
You did not just say "silky."
668
00:45:05,744 --> 00:45:08,747
- That's nice of you.
- Are you kidding me?
669
00:45:09,748 --> 00:45:13,001
After we get there, we're dropping
you off and we're heading back.
670
00:45:13,877 --> 00:45:16,557
You know, I... I don't know why we're
doing this in the first place.
671
00:45:19,174 --> 00:45:20,217
Damn. "Businessmen."
672
00:45:22,052 --> 00:45:24,280
- Are they a gang?
- They're a club.
673
00:45:24,304 --> 00:45:27,057
Just don't look over there, man,
it's already embarrassing enough.
674
00:45:28,851 --> 00:45:30,310
Why, are they your pals?
675
00:45:31,603 --> 00:45:32,896
"They your pals?"
676
00:45:35,357 --> 00:45:37,609
- Do they look like my pals, man?
- Clifford!
677
00:45:38,986 --> 00:45:40,380
Enough with the damn attitude!
678
00:45:40,404 --> 00:45:43,198
- How's he supposed to know?
- He doesn't know shit!
679
00:45:43,532 --> 00:45:45,826
Coming down here for one
night just to get a fix?
680
00:45:46,243 --> 00:45:48,078
That's all it is, Ava,
681
00:45:48,370 --> 00:45:50,747
- to say that they came here once.
- Clifford.
682
00:45:51,039 --> 00:45:53,584
- You know, you're acting like a real...
- Like a real what?
683
00:45:53,792 --> 00:45:56,211
Do you think you're the
only one who's got it bad?
684
00:45:56,712 --> 00:45:59,465
Quit acting like this
world is out to get you.
685
00:45:59,923 --> 00:46:02,718
And stop hating on these boys
just 'cause they're white.
686
00:46:03,510 --> 00:46:06,197
- What if a cop sees you with him?
- I can protect myself.
687
00:46:06,221 --> 00:46:08,390
You won't be the only
one in trouble, Ava.
688
00:46:11,268 --> 00:46:13,896
Let's just get off the street
and into this damn club.
689
00:46:15,939 --> 00:46:17,274
Almost there, Bud.
690
00:46:35,417 --> 00:46:37,211
Hush, now.
691
00:47:08,659 --> 00:47:10,327
Joe, come on.
692
00:47:46,071 --> 00:47:47,155
Joe...?
693
00:47:48,115 --> 00:47:50,993
- Oh, what is he doing?
- Excuse me, ma'am?
694
00:47:51,493 --> 00:47:53,912
Do you mind telling us where
the Cage Bird is, please?
695
00:47:58,375 --> 00:48:00,144
Man, we're not gonna find them.
They're long gone.
696
00:48:00,168 --> 00:48:02,313
They gotta be around
here somewhere.
697
00:48:02,337 --> 00:48:05,299
Well, here we are,
about to get shot.
698
00:48:05,507 --> 00:48:07,569
Maybe they just got a
cab and went home.
699
00:48:07,593 --> 00:48:10,470
They did not go home. And
we're not gonna get shot.
700
00:48:12,097 --> 00:48:13,097
Hey, what is that?
701
00:48:13,807 --> 00:48:16,452
Oh, I got it at the club. The
bartender gave it to me.
702
00:48:16,476 --> 00:48:17,412
It's a guide.
703
00:48:17,436 --> 00:48:20,772
It lists all of the safe places
in LA for colored people.
704
00:48:21,732 --> 00:48:24,735
The only other jazz club in walking
distance from the Tritone...
705
00:48:25,068 --> 00:48:27,237
is, uh, the Cage Bird.
706
00:48:27,487 --> 00:48:30,300
Three blocks up that way.
707
00:48:34,703 --> 00:48:36,246
- Joey!
- Is he here?
708
00:48:37,873 --> 00:48:39,625
You missed him, man,
I'm really sorry.
709
00:48:43,462 --> 00:48:44,671
Hey, where is he?
710
00:48:46,923 --> 00:48:48,175
He went back to his hotel.
711
00:48:51,261 --> 00:48:54,431
You said I missed him.
You saw him?
712
00:48:55,641 --> 00:48:57,267
Sorry, man.
713
00:48:58,310 --> 00:49:01,021
Only the last minute or
so, and then he bailed.
714
00:49:03,565 --> 00:49:05,400
- Damn it.
- Joe!
715
00:49:21,875 --> 00:49:23,126
I'll take a whisky.
716
00:49:33,595 --> 00:49:35,430
So why Pope Dixon?
717
00:49:37,349 --> 00:49:38,349
What?
718
00:49:41,812 --> 00:49:43,897
I said, why Pope Dixon?
719
00:49:47,275 --> 00:49:48,652
He's the best.
720
00:49:52,447 --> 00:49:53,490
That's it?
721
00:49:59,913 --> 00:50:02,124
He was, uh...
722
00:50:06,294 --> 00:50:07,796
my dad's favorite.
723
00:50:11,967 --> 00:50:13,468
Not just that.
724
00:50:15,804 --> 00:50:17,431
He was practically his hero.
725
00:50:21,143 --> 00:50:22,602
He taught me to play.
726
00:50:30,777 --> 00:50:34,364
I knew my dad wanted to be a
famous jazz musician someday.
727
00:50:38,076 --> 00:50:39,453
He used to say,
728
00:50:41,580 --> 00:50:44,040
a good band was like
a flock of birds,
729
00:50:45,250 --> 00:50:46,251
and...
730
00:50:47,711 --> 00:50:51,590
and improv was like a bird leaving
the flock just for a minute.
731
00:50:55,552 --> 00:50:57,179
But it always came back.
732
00:51:02,559 --> 00:51:04,978
I, um... ahem...
733
00:51:07,189 --> 00:51:10,609
Ava and I went through
something similar.
734
00:51:13,111 --> 00:51:14,237
My mom.
735
00:51:16,198 --> 00:51:17,699
She was a singer.
736
00:51:21,536 --> 00:51:23,622
Passed away not too long ago.
737
00:51:30,086 --> 00:51:32,297
Hey, you ain't half
bad on the keys, man.
738
00:51:39,846 --> 00:51:42,116
- Yeah.
- Yes!
739
00:51:45,852 --> 00:51:47,979
That's... that's blues.
740
00:51:50,190 --> 00:51:52,585
What the hell are we still
doing here if Pope's gone?
741
00:51:52,609 --> 00:51:54,049
That's who you wanted
to see, right?
742
00:51:54,361 --> 00:51:57,048
We're here. Might as
well enjoy some jazz.
743
00:51:57,072 --> 00:52:00,367
Some of us have
places to be, Joey.
744
00:52:00,575 --> 00:52:01,575
Then go!
745
00:52:02,035 --> 00:52:03,745
No one's stopping you, Lou.
746
00:52:04,037 --> 00:52:06,122
I can't leave by myself.
747
00:52:09,835 --> 00:52:12,003
Maybe we should talk
in private, Joe.
748
00:52:12,796 --> 00:52:14,047
I don't mind.
749
00:52:15,048 --> 00:52:16,383
What's going on, guys?
750
00:52:21,555 --> 00:52:22,848
He's pretty great, huh?
751
00:52:25,433 --> 00:52:29,145
- I said, he's pretty great, huh?
- He ain't bad.
752
00:52:29,312 --> 00:52:34,025
I can't go by myself because I
don't wanna get shot or mugged.
753
00:52:35,694 --> 00:52:37,334
You really think this
place is dangerous?
754
00:52:38,405 --> 00:52:39,865
People getting shot?
755
00:52:40,115 --> 00:52:41,741
It's us that are getting shot, man.
756
00:52:42,033 --> 00:52:45,388
Oh, right. The cops are
the dangerous ones.
757
00:52:45,412 --> 00:52:47,289
What the hell's the
matter with you, Lou?
758
00:52:49,040 --> 00:52:51,042
Look, whatever, all right?
759
00:52:52,043 --> 00:52:53,753
These people here...
760
00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:56,482
are trying to listen
to some jazz.
761
00:52:56,506 --> 00:53:00,260
Screw these people.
And screw jazz!
762
00:53:00,510 --> 00:53:02,846
Why are we still
playing jazz music?
763
00:53:03,263 --> 00:53:06,242
Every girl I meet,
it's an embarrassment.
764
00:53:06,266 --> 00:53:09,787
I can't explain it to them other than
my friends are trying to be black!
765
00:53:09,811 --> 00:53:12,314
All right, it's definitely
time for you to go.
766
00:53:20,071 --> 00:53:21,823
Okay, wait here, all right?
767
00:53:22,115 --> 00:53:23,835
I don't wanna scare them
off like last time.
768
00:53:23,909 --> 00:53:27,704
I don't believe this shit. Is
this because of Cindy Merkle?
769
00:53:27,913 --> 00:53:29,557
You love jazz.
770
00:53:29,581 --> 00:53:31,142
You guys thought I loved jazz,
771
00:53:31,166 --> 00:53:32,935
I've just been waiting
for you to catch up.
772
00:53:32,959 --> 00:53:36,922
- This looks bad.
- Nah, I'm sure it's fine.
773
00:53:38,006 --> 00:53:39,049
Hey, Gene.
774
00:53:39,925 --> 00:53:42,928
Sam's a really sweet guy, I
get it, but he's a loser.
775
00:53:44,304 --> 00:53:46,866
Why don't you let me take you
down to Bay River, huh? Hmm?
776
00:53:46,890 --> 00:53:47,890
Get off me!
777
00:53:48,767 --> 00:53:50,685
- Jeez.
- What are you doing?
778
00:53:50,894 --> 00:53:53,647
Seriously, Lou, either shut up
or get the hell out of here!
779
00:53:53,939 --> 00:53:55,458
I went along for the ride.
780
00:53:55,482 --> 00:53:57,651
We're going back to Heart's!
Now, let's go!
781
00:53:57,817 --> 00:53:59,611
You're being a goddamn child.
782
00:54:01,780 --> 00:54:06,117
Look who's calling me childish...
The nigger lover.
783
00:54:08,954 --> 00:54:10,181
Back off.
784
00:54:13,875 --> 00:54:14,918
Say that again, man?
785
00:54:15,502 --> 00:54:16,962
Hey!
786
00:54:24,094 --> 00:54:25,321
Hey, y'all. Come on, now.
787
00:54:25,345 --> 00:54:27,847
What y'all doing? Get up!
788
00:54:28,098 --> 00:54:30,225
Coming in here, causin' trouble.
Go on out!
789
00:54:31,184 --> 00:54:34,455
Get on out! You, too! Come on!
790
00:54:34,479 --> 00:54:38,668
- Hey, back off!
- Leave! Go on! All of you!
791
00:54:38,692 --> 00:54:41,194
Acting like you crazy in here!
What's wrong with you?
792
00:54:43,321 --> 00:54:44,781
- Stop it!
- Come on, man!
793
00:54:45,448 --> 00:54:47,659
You guys are
embarrassing yourselves.
794
00:54:48,576 --> 00:54:50,304
- Enough!
- What the hell happened in there?
795
00:54:50,328 --> 00:54:52,848
- Man, ask your friend.
- Hey! We're not all like that.
796
00:54:52,872 --> 00:54:57,127
- What are you talking about?
- I'm tired of this goddamn place!
797
00:54:57,544 --> 00:54:58,544
Lou?
798
00:54:59,713 --> 00:55:02,465
- What in God's name?
- It's time to go, sis.
799
00:55:02,716 --> 00:55:05,635
Hey, look, I'm sorry we caused
all this trouble, all right?
800
00:55:06,261 --> 00:55:08,638
It's time for everyone to go
home before the cops show up.
801
00:55:10,724 --> 00:55:12,201
- Come on, Joey, we're leaving.
- I'm not going.
802
00:55:12,225 --> 00:55:16,372
Oh, Jesus Christ, Joe! He's gone.
Just give it up, already!
803
00:55:16,396 --> 00:55:18,106
It doesn't matter, all right?
804
00:55:18,898 --> 00:55:22,068
Look, I'll go to the hotel, to the Dunbar.
He's probably playing there!
805
00:55:22,193 --> 00:55:23,921
- Insane!
- We've come this far!
806
00:55:23,945 --> 00:55:26,448
How many times do I have to tell you, Joe?
It's not safe here!
807
00:55:26,614 --> 00:55:28,050
You know, I've heard
enough of that shit, man.
808
00:55:28,074 --> 00:55:29,492
So have I!
809
00:55:30,076 --> 00:55:32,829
I'm going home, Sam, okay?
I'm going home.
810
00:55:33,496 --> 00:55:36,499
Yeah, I'm going with you.
You got a car, right?
811
00:55:39,627 --> 00:55:41,046
Yeah, whatever. Let's roll.
812
00:55:41,546 --> 00:55:45,508
- Hey, just give me a second, Tony!
- I've given you hours, man!
813
00:55:45,967 --> 00:55:48,487
And now I'm late for
Merkle, so I'm gonna go.
814
00:55:48,511 --> 00:55:50,346
What... Cindy Merkle?
815
00:55:50,597 --> 00:55:52,057
Yeah, that's the one.
816
00:55:52,932 --> 00:55:54,517
Move your ass. Come on!
817
00:55:55,435 --> 00:55:57,020
All right, Ava, let's go.
818
00:55:58,229 --> 00:55:59,898
What happened in there?
819
00:56:03,151 --> 00:56:04,152
He...
820
00:56:09,157 --> 00:56:12,660
he called you a nigger in
front of my face, okay?
821
00:56:14,287 --> 00:56:15,121
And he stood up for him.
822
00:56:15,288 --> 00:56:16,599
No, I didn't hear him say that.
823
00:56:16,623 --> 00:56:18,263
- I saw you punch him!
- Clifford, please!
824
00:56:20,085 --> 00:56:23,421
I didn't even know he was like
that, none of us did. And I...
825
00:56:24,214 --> 00:56:27,383
I just... I've really enjoyed
getting to know you.
826
00:56:28,468 --> 00:56:30,428
Both of you. And...
827
00:56:31,054 --> 00:56:35,433
I know we made a mess of things
tonight but I don't want this to end.
828
00:56:37,143 --> 00:56:40,605
- Not like this.
- Pfft, save it, man.
829
00:56:41,815 --> 00:56:44,234
Do whatever you want, Ava.
I'm going back.
830
00:56:49,572 --> 00:56:51,658
Maybe you guys
should just call it.
831
00:57:09,092 --> 00:57:11,553
I'm really sorry, Gene. I...
832
00:57:12,220 --> 00:57:13,680
I didn't mean to...
833
00:57:16,349 --> 00:57:20,770
I saw a pay phone on the corner.
I'll go try to call a cab.
834
00:57:43,209 --> 00:57:45,170
Joey, I get it, all right? I do.
835
00:57:47,130 --> 00:57:48,882
But you got to move on.
836
00:57:49,257 --> 00:57:51,134
Don't tell me to move on.
837
00:57:53,303 --> 00:57:55,680
We're not the only guys
our age who like jazz.
838
00:58:01,853 --> 00:58:04,939
You can chase Pope Dixon
across the entire city,
839
00:58:07,650 --> 00:58:10,153
but it's still not
gonna bring Dad back.
840
00:58:15,742 --> 00:58:17,452
It's not about that.
841
00:58:19,787 --> 00:58:21,498
You should go with
your girlfriend.
842
00:58:22,582 --> 00:58:24,000
Seriously, go.
843
00:58:32,383 --> 00:58:35,970
For the cab ride back, but
I guess I can't force you.
844
00:58:40,600 --> 00:58:42,685
Garby, Radbourn.
845
00:58:52,320 --> 00:58:53,797
Well, I'm...
846
00:58:53,821 --> 00:58:55,990
I'm gonna go grab my jacket.
847
00:58:56,991 --> 00:58:58,243
Uh...
848
00:58:59,994 --> 00:59:01,996
Ask somebody where
the Dunbar is?
849
00:59:10,255 --> 00:59:11,881
Ahem.
850
00:59:29,148 --> 00:59:31,276
We're not going to
the damn Dunbar.
851
00:59:35,488 --> 00:59:37,365
Are you sure? Just now?
852
00:59:40,118 --> 00:59:41,703
I'm such an idiot, Bud.
853
00:59:44,080 --> 00:59:46,416
I dragged us all down
here, and for what?
854
00:59:49,460 --> 00:59:51,087
Even if we did see him,
855
00:59:53,047 --> 00:59:55,008
and you guys even
wanted to come,
856
00:59:56,467 --> 00:59:57,653
it was all for me.
857
00:59:57,677 --> 01:00:00,531
You think I wouldn't kill for a
chance to see the king of jazz?
858
01:00:00,555 --> 01:00:02,324
- That Archie wouldn't?
- Louie doesn't give a shit.
859
01:00:02,348 --> 01:00:04,309
- Who cares?
- That's for sure.
860
01:00:09,689 --> 01:00:10,773
Come on.
861
01:00:13,192 --> 01:00:14,819
Let's go check out the Dunbar.
862
01:00:15,194 --> 01:00:17,947
- You never know if Pope's still there...
- What's the point?
863
01:00:20,700 --> 01:00:22,118
If he's there, he's...
864
01:00:24,329 --> 01:00:25,955
he's probably passed out.
865
01:00:29,167 --> 01:00:31,002
I bet that he's there,
866
01:00:32,170 --> 01:00:34,088
playing in some back room.
867
01:00:35,256 --> 01:00:37,568
He probably doesn't stop
until the sun comes up.
868
01:00:37,592 --> 01:00:39,636
Yeah. Well...
869
01:00:41,012 --> 01:00:46,118
Somehow I doubt we'd be
welcome in "some back room."
870
01:00:46,142 --> 01:00:51,356
- Or anywhere around here after tonight.
- Well, you could talk to him.
871
01:00:53,191 --> 01:00:55,318
You had that question
you wanted to ask him.
872
01:01:02,700 --> 01:01:04,577
Except I already
know the answer.
873
01:01:09,290 --> 01:01:10,667
Clifford was right.
874
01:01:13,836 --> 01:01:16,506
I have no idea what
that's like, Bud.
875
01:01:18,549 --> 01:01:21,260
And I have no business
trying to be like them.
876
01:01:22,553 --> 01:01:25,264
You've been through some
pretty tough times, Joe.
877
01:01:25,682 --> 01:01:29,727
- Yeah, nothing like that.
- Losing your dad is pretty damn tough.
878
01:01:35,149 --> 01:01:37,068
Hell, I don't know
how you do it.
879
01:01:40,446 --> 01:01:42,407
You are the bravest kid I know.
880
01:01:44,867 --> 01:01:47,096
And the most stubborn.
881
01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:49,723
And you're damn good on the
keys, and you know it.
882
01:01:49,747 --> 01:01:50,849
God, I don't know.
883
01:01:50,873 --> 01:01:54,502
Yes. Yes, you are. There is
passion when you play, man.
884
01:01:54,669 --> 01:01:58,923
There's feeling, and that, that
is what makes those guys great.
885
01:02:05,638 --> 01:02:08,200
So, the bartender told
me where the Dunbar is
886
01:02:08,224 --> 01:02:10,411
and he said never to come back.
887
01:02:10,435 --> 01:02:12,895
And he, uh, he told
me my fly was down.
888
01:02:14,480 --> 01:02:15,565
Which it was.
889
01:02:20,153 --> 01:02:22,071
So, what do you say, Joe?
890
01:02:29,537 --> 01:02:30,788
What about Ava and Clifford?
891
01:02:35,626 --> 01:02:40,339
Archie and I will go back to the Tritone.
See if we can make peace with Clifford.
892
01:02:41,048 --> 01:02:42,884
- Are you sure?
- Yeah.
893
01:02:43,259 --> 01:02:47,889
Uh, well, it's, uh, it's only a couple of
blocks down there. Yeah, see that sign?
894
01:02:48,806 --> 01:02:50,057
That's the Dunbar.
895
01:02:52,769 --> 01:02:53,769
All right.
896
01:02:53,895 --> 01:02:56,355
But you gotta go straight
back to the Tritone after.
897
01:02:59,192 --> 01:03:00,276
And, uh...
898
01:03:02,069 --> 01:03:04,238
and if you meet
him, if he's there,
899
01:03:07,575 --> 01:03:10,787
- you'll know what to say.
- Thanks, Bud.
900
01:03:15,750 --> 01:03:17,752
Hey, hey, tell him
we said hey, too.
901
01:04:35,621 --> 01:04:37,456
I didn't play, boy.
902
01:04:40,543 --> 01:04:43,689
He's all excited, you
know, playing with Pres.
903
01:04:43,713 --> 01:04:46,650
After the gig he comes
up to Pres and says,
904
01:04:46,674 --> 01:04:51,864
"Pres, when was the last
time we played together?"
905
01:04:51,888 --> 01:04:55,200
Pres looked at him, "Tonight."
906
01:05:09,322 --> 01:05:11,574
Something I can
help you with, son?
907
01:05:15,953 --> 01:05:19,081
I'm, uh... I'm...
908
01:05:20,082 --> 01:05:24,170
My name is, uh, Joseph Grover.
I'm a big fan.
909
01:05:26,255 --> 01:05:27,298
Thank you.
910
01:05:29,717 --> 01:05:33,721
You, uh... you here
all by yourself?
911
01:05:35,473 --> 01:05:39,202
I'm... I'm with some friends.
Just down the street.
912
01:05:39,226 --> 01:05:40,353
Mm-hmm.
913
01:05:43,397 --> 01:05:44,815
I... I just...
914
01:05:46,442 --> 01:05:47,693
I love jazz.
915
01:05:49,487 --> 01:05:50,988
I love the history,
916
01:05:52,740 --> 01:05:55,368
and I grew up listening to
you and your orchestra.
917
01:05:56,953 --> 01:05:59,789
It was guys like you who
inspired me to start playing.
918
01:06:00,247 --> 01:06:02,083
Oh, you play?
919
01:06:05,211 --> 01:06:06,545
What do you play?
920
01:06:06,837 --> 01:06:09,674
- Piano.
- Piano?
921
01:06:10,883 --> 01:06:12,426
Piano man.
922
01:06:15,471 --> 01:06:21,602
Well, uh, piano man, you, uh, you
not from around here, are you?
923
01:06:22,561 --> 01:06:26,816
No. No. Uh, Pasadena.
924
01:06:27,149 --> 01:06:30,778
My father, he grew
up in Manhattan.
925
01:06:31,237 --> 01:06:35,574
He said he saw you once...
In Harlem, at the Savoy,
926
01:06:36,617 --> 01:06:38,327
and then once again here.
927
01:06:39,537 --> 01:06:41,539
He... he said you were the best.
928
01:06:45,876 --> 01:06:47,086
Look, I...
929
01:06:49,046 --> 01:06:53,050
I just wanted to talk to
you, so I could, um...
930
01:06:54,552 --> 01:06:56,303
so I could ask you something.
931
01:06:59,098 --> 01:07:00,599
Well...
932
01:07:02,351 --> 01:07:07,565
if you take any longer asking,
I might not be here answering.
933
01:07:13,446 --> 01:07:14,613
I just...
934
01:07:16,699 --> 01:07:19,803
Breathe, piano man.
935
01:07:19,827 --> 01:07:23,080
I wanted to ask... I
wanted to ask if you...
936
01:07:25,082 --> 01:07:30,254
if you think it's possible
to be a great jazz musician
937
01:07:31,589 --> 01:07:32,965
even if...
938
01:07:36,886 --> 01:07:38,637
even if you haven't...
939
01:07:40,806 --> 01:07:42,141
been through the...
940
01:07:44,393 --> 01:07:45,644
the struggle.
941
01:07:48,147 --> 01:07:52,318
Like, if you weren't born in
Harlem or Chicago or Kansas City,
942
01:07:52,610 --> 01:07:56,739
if you didn't have to deal
with the stuff that...
943
01:07:57,448 --> 01:08:01,994
that you and the other
greats dealt with.
944
01:08:10,294 --> 01:08:12,088
Let me get this straight,
945
01:08:13,547 --> 01:08:16,175
so I'm clear.
946
01:08:17,426 --> 01:08:19,654
You standing there,
shivering, asking me
947
01:08:19,678 --> 01:08:23,140
if you have to struggle to be great?
Or...
948
01:08:24,183 --> 01:08:28,354
are you standing
there, shivering,
949
01:08:28,896 --> 01:08:31,512
asking me if you have
to be 01:08:34,151
"style. default_1"
>black to be great?
951
01:08:39,198 --> 01:08:40,616
Here's the thing.
952
01:08:45,079 --> 01:08:47,832
I played with a whole
bunch of white cats.
953
01:08:49,250 --> 01:08:50,793
Great ones, you hear me?
954
01:08:51,377 --> 01:08:53,003
Great ones.
955
01:08:53,754 --> 01:08:57,383
Did they all struggle? Maybe.
956
01:08:57,925 --> 01:08:58,925
I don't know.
957
01:08:59,844 --> 01:09:02,096
You had to struggle, you
ain't had to struggle,
958
01:09:02,304 --> 01:09:05,283
but you can't go around
looking for bad times.
959
01:09:05,307 --> 01:09:08,495
You do that and you're
trampling on folks
960
01:09:08,519 --> 01:09:10,688
who ain't got no choice.
961
01:09:10,896 --> 01:09:14,400
Folks who have to get
up every day and fight.
962
01:09:16,485 --> 01:09:21,073
You hear me? Only you
know if you got a fight.
963
01:09:21,991 --> 01:09:24,368
But you asking the
wrong question.
964
01:09:24,535 --> 01:09:27,371
The question you
should be asking is,
965
01:09:27,705 --> 01:09:34,628
what good is a great jazz musician
in this new world of ours?
966
01:09:35,546 --> 01:09:36,546
Huh?
967
01:09:37,131 --> 01:09:39,717
Jazz, as we know it,
968
01:09:40,968 --> 01:09:42,428
is...
969
01:09:44,597 --> 01:09:45,597
a memory.
970
01:09:48,142 --> 01:09:53,772
The word "jazz" has been
abused, beaten and raped,
971
01:09:53,939 --> 01:09:56,168
just like the word "art,"
972
01:09:56,192 --> 01:09:58,753
because expression has
been given liberty
973
01:09:58,777 --> 01:10:01,822
to express shit
and call it gold.
974
01:10:02,448 --> 01:10:08,412
You know, they... they'll call the
decade that killed jazz "the '60s."
975
01:10:09,580 --> 01:10:11,099
What good is this new generation
976
01:10:11,123 --> 01:10:14,168
if they don't even know
the classics anymore?
977
01:10:14,835 --> 01:10:18,398
Your friends, your buddies
around the corner?
978
01:10:18,422 --> 01:10:21,800
Well, they're all rock 'n'
rollin', aren't they? Mm-hmm.
979
01:10:21,926 --> 01:10:25,697
And your parents, well, they're sitting
up in the living room with a cocktail,
980
01:10:25,721 --> 01:10:27,699
watching the boob tube,
981
01:10:27,723 --> 01:10:30,517
and you're sitting up
here talking about jazz.
982
01:10:32,102 --> 01:10:38,067
Son, sometimes you just
have to accept reality
983
01:10:38,400 --> 01:10:39,985
and move on.
984
01:10:44,198 --> 01:10:45,783
Do you know what
I'm telling you?
985
01:10:46,784 --> 01:10:52,331
I'm telling you that you was
born in the wrong decade.
986
01:10:58,045 --> 01:11:01,465
That answer your
question, piano man?
987
01:11:05,219 --> 01:11:07,638
Yes, sir.
988
01:11:12,559 --> 01:11:13,686
Thank you.
989
01:14:51,361 --> 01:14:52,654
He'd be proud.
990
01:15:04,958 --> 01:15:06,793
Let's get the other guys, huh?
991
01:15:20,015 --> 01:15:22,267
Hey, Joe, Sam.
992
01:15:26,188 --> 01:15:29,292
- Everything okay?
- Yeah.
993
01:15:29,316 --> 01:15:30,400
What's going on?
994
01:15:31,485 --> 01:15:33,195
Oh, Bud's saying bye to Ava,
995
01:15:33,487 --> 01:15:36,657
and I was waiting on him and then
I was gonna come find you guys.
996
01:15:37,032 --> 01:15:38,242
But, uh, was he there?
997
01:15:40,494 --> 01:15:43,997
No. He wasn't.
998
01:15:44,915 --> 01:15:46,166
It's all right, though.
999
01:15:51,004 --> 01:15:52,089
You guys ready?
1000
01:16:22,953 --> 01:16:25,581
Taxi!
1001
01:16:47,686 --> 01:16:48,937
Pasadena.
