Nope.

No closer to match.

Fine.

Close up on Constance.

Close up on Constance.

Hi Doctor Lubin, I think

I want to get that operation we discussed.

Tonight.

Oh my God.

How long will that take to heal?

Are you say we're coming for my close up now?

That she maybe there's something about her that speaks to us

in a language as vital and as bracing as life itself.

Alright, you heard her close up on Nelly.

Never have I seen such a maelstrom,

a bad taste and share magic.

Your humble servant bears witness,

just killed our grandmothers and we thank her for it.

How much?

It's Billy, remember?

Hi.

Ohh, you should come by the Warners lot.

I haven't seen you there in a while.

Yeah.

Joseph Sound pictures real good.

Sound picture.

Yeah.

Like Don one.

No, no, no, no.

Sing ain't talking pictures like you there.

And I like the shorts.

Really.

Ohh yeah.

It's wild.

We did a screening on the lot last week.

People went nuts.

You think people want to have those sound in their movies?

Yeah, why wouldn't they?

This is what we've been looking for.

Sound is how we redefine the form sound.

Sweetie, I don't.

I don't know what you're upset about it.

I don't understand him screaming.

Last week was a training what she's saying.

I got him learning Hungarian language.

Arrow of monkeys.

Olga, does this mean you don't like the way you think?

I made you miss the rain in Budapest,

so I built a rain machine in the garden.

Pick up the last 10 years.

Well, something about 10 years for the rights, aeroplane talk

and your angels, didn't it?

That's not the same thing.

That's not what I'm saying.

Hello spurts and fits, people.

Those are movies, not listening.

Her jacket.

I wanna know about the Al Jolson movie hitman.

Well to New York instead of Gloria's theatre.

You see the premier having report back.

Yes.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Okay.

Bye.

Back.

Fuck off.

How you been?

Good.

Look at you.

Wow.

Do you Remember Me?

Of course I remember you.

Could I forget and you are starting up.

I was always a star, remember.

What are you doing here?

Are you here for a movie or?

I have to get out of town for a few days and shit came over the guy

saying I owed him money to give you crabs.

And then while he got pissed and he started him out,

but he thinks I have a gambling problem,

which, I don't know, only gamble if I'm, you know, pissed or drunk

or having a great night.

What about you?

Decoration.

Jack Conrad?

Yeah, I would fuck him.

Wow.

Why would Conrad sent you here?

God, get out of this place.

First chance I got took nothing with me but my dad.

It's actually my business manager now.

He's so bad at it.

Cannot.

I cannot spell.

Why don't you hire?

So?

What else?

My dad?

What else is he going to do?

Ohh shit, we're here.

Hey Tony, you hang on to this for me, please.

Thanks.

I'm just going to give an okay.

Actually, yeah.

Do you want to come in with me?

May I help you?

Yes, Nelly Laurie.

Hi.

Seems okay here.

Pretty nice.

This is Manny.

He works in the movies too.

Thank you.

That was a waste of time.

I hate.

When people put fucking toppings on ice cream.

Doesn't need it just messes up a good thing, you know what I mean?

That.

I've never done nothing except disappoint people my whole life.

Teachers told me I was no good.

Boys told me I was no good.

Every fucking casting director

in the city told me I was too short or I was too fat.

Usually I was too fat.

You know, my mom actually had some fat years, too.

You wouldn't know it now looking at it, but she did.

I fucked up with me Manny.

They're really fucked up with me cause I make him squirm.

And I like making them squirm.

Let them know that I got here on my terms, not theirs.

When I'm done, I'm going to dance my ass off into the night.

And they'll know everyone will fucking know

that they could never control one God damn fucking thing.

Do you like ice cream?

Post.

My family lives in LA, you know.

Really.

I thought they were in Mexico.

Across the border when I was 12.

You look far.

I could take a car ride for 30 minutes and.

Just say.

I.

But you never do.

It's just easier to be on my own.

I've always been in my own.

Tony, take Manny wherever he needs to go.

I insist, I insist.

See you back in LA, Okay.

From the gate.

And friends.

It's a nice campus you got here, so.

What's a girl supposed to do when she's here?

Your classes that ain't got any parties.

Not till the evening, huh?

All right.

I can handle that.

I'm from Granville.

OH, so I know.

Quiet.

Thanks a bunch then.

See you later.

Wonder if he's single?

God.

Look.

Cheque the gate, cheque the gate.

Ohh Billy.

Billy, come on, Bill, let's get a cover.

I got a little.

Come on, get me.

Hurry up.

Ohh.

He's dead.

Manuel.

Just down

from Broadway, she's a real actor.

We got engaged yesterday.

Now she's trying to explain to me that movies are a low art.

3 double shot of tequila.

Hola, carmelita.

I have no idea who that is.

The point is,

darling, I believe movies are every bit as profound

and with sync sound,

which, who knows,

could be what discovery of perspective was for painting.

I think what we have here in Hollywood is high art.

It's

sparkle.

Jack Conrad, you are even more fuckable in person.

Thank you.

This is still his fiance.

Fiance.

I'm not actually going to fuck him.

I beat the whole USC football team in a game of craps

and we wrapped in so now they have to be my slave.

So ohh nice.

Jack, can you say hi to my dad, please?

Sure.

He wanted to meet you.

He's also my manager.

It's a good thing we met.

Jack.

I got a business proposition just for you.

I'm Nelly.

Theme diner.

I'm going to call it the Wild child grill.

I'm going to serve sandwiches shaped like her face.

It's not a threat, it's just what it is.

If you keep playing flat, I'm a fucking head butt you.

Is this going to be what it's going to be?

You need to play better.

You embarrassing Joe.

You what you just said to me.

Listen to this psychopath.

When you going to do something?

You worried about you doing something?

When are you gonna do something?

Have you ever heard of Alexander Graham?

What the fuck do I care about Alexander Square?

Alexander Scriabin wasn't Russian pianist broke his hands

just so his fingers stretch across the keys better.

I'm saying if I fucking head butt you across the funky ass lips of yours,

you might start playing a little.

We can hope fucking deranged.

Sydney.

Eleanor is trying to civilise me for talking.

Ain't that nice?

Isn't that nice?

And more attire next time.

Little more entire is always in the way Nelly dresses.

Logan, Nelly is low.

Now let me tell you about the time

I fought a rattlesnake with his Death Valley.

April and death.

It's George.

Ohh Georgie,

who was it this time?

Claire.

Claire.

Claire is a lesbian.

That's an uphill battle for anyone.

Come on, buddy, get your head out of there.

Ohh.

What?

Your attention please, for your entertainment this evening,

this lady face, you will now choose a partner.

Hi.

I'm nearly Leroy's dad.

What's your name?

Ohh.

Fuck, fuck, fuck.

I didn't know.

Yeah, you're right, man.

You call my office's.

We're going to need more musicians, you talented man.

You have to go through up now.

Laura.

That that is when my dad dad.

Yeah, here is what.

What's he telling you?

What was he saying to you?

Snakes.

Snakes.

Come on, buddy.

You got it?

Yeah.

I have an idea.

Why don't you fight a snake?

A real one right now.

Come on,

let's go fight a snake.

Leave that out.

Ohh you big Dick, Mr nan.

Who wants to see my dad fight a fucking snake?

Fuck yeah.

A snakes death.

5.

Chaplin is hung for sure, but Gary Cooper?

Gary Cooper is a fucking horse.

He's also a fucking pussy.

All that cock.

No balls.

Shame.

What other songs that come Broadway once?

No, it doesn't look that bad, buddy.

Stop.

Thank you.

Where are we?

Ohh fuck out of my way.

No.

Stand, stand, stand back.

Back.

Look quite a snake.

Whoa.

Gonna find a snake.

This is great.

There we go.

See a snake.

See this man.

Watch this.

So first one must assume the position of a Mongoose.

Ohh.

Yes.

I'm not going to.

Tell me they're coming, so I could just turn the whole thing over and over and over.

Yeah.

Hug it's like.

Just saying.

Ohh.

Mother fucker.

Who is going to fight it?

God damn it, you fucking pussy.

You fucking piece of shit.

Fucking bullshit.

Fucking pussies.

The night is almost over.

I got funny and call time.

I just want to see.

Hey mother fucking say fight don't really made me shit for fucking vagina.

I will find it.

Yes, I'm more men than any of you.

Siri.

You see that?

You.

Really.

Dark.

Douche bag, right.

What's one to the breach, dear friends?

What's more?

Where?

Fucks sake.

Ohh.

Yeah.

Welcome to the wonderful world of sound.

Say.

Just saying.

I have to do this.

What do you mean?

It's going to be great.

You just stand there and sing.

Exactly.

Well, it's raining.

Yeah.

Noah's ark.

I believe so because it's raining so much.

To be honest with you,

I don't really know why I thought it was our Georgia.

No.

Well, no.

This is Norma's here.

Buster Keaton's here.

The song's ahead.

You look amazing.

Ohh my goodness.

Come on you.

Just not at all.

They can't get in.

Ohh.

What musician trying to break?

I want to work with my actors for a second.

The head bobbing.

It's very mechanical right now.

Make it something that makes it personal to you.

OK, that's a little too much, Mary.

That's too personal.

OK, so just bobbing.

Alright, let's work on that up.

Rest of the body doesn't move.

Up, up, up, up, up, up.

Very good Mary.

Up, up, up.

Oh, oh, I like this.

What do you think?

Oh, oh, oh, oh oh.

You asking me?

What happened?

OK, this looks much better.

I think you got those cameras pointed in the wrong direction.

Do the rainbow, remember?

That's what I think.

This one more time.

Everybody ready?

Musicians are ready and access.

That's better.

God.

Good idea.

Manuel Torres.

How have you been?

Well, Sir, you.

You went to the way Mr Fuller said Palmer showed your idea.

They're more like a collaboration between Sydney and me.

How do you like to leave MGM?

Come be sound chief kinescope.

What?

We need Spanish language pig chairs.

We're taking new directions.

It's changing times.

Manning, sure.

And we need to do something about Nelly Leroy.

Hmm.

You know her, don't you?

Jersey thing doesn't work anymore,

says audiences find her point of graphic she's been hanging around Jim

Mckay's casinos like 1/2 wit,

she goes gambling debts all over town,

and she sounds like a donkey.

Mean.

Anyways.

Think about it.

Gentlemen, here's the plan.

We turn Nellie Leroy into a lady.

We change her parts.

We fix her voice.

No more drugs.

No more guns.

Eleanor St.

John writes a story about her amazing transformation.

With the right endorsements and with Eleanor as an ally,

we can remake Miss Leroy into an actress of sophistication,

like the Ladies of MGM.

Next Sydney Park today,

what audiences want Negroes in their pictures, Negro music, Negro voices.

So we bring Sydney kinescope wherever he costs.

One moment, gentlemen.

One moment.

Sydney Palmer.

OK, Sydney button.

Was hoping I could introduce the two of you, Mr Leroy,

me, Mr Torres, Mr Torres, meet Mr Leroy.

Mr Torres is going to be working for us here at kinescope.

I was a tourist, just wanted to know that I'm ready to change

and I'll do whatever you need.

Call me money.

Cut.

Next time, try soft, okay.

But why, my darling dear?

Why what?

What?

They move the microphone 45 degrees.

Okay.

That one near here, Okay.

I mean, no, no, no, no, no.

It's not Manuel, it's money.

Mandatory, not manual, OK?

Working

manual.

Moving up fast.

I'm sorry.

I meant to call you now to lose.

People staying OK deserve this.

Gulf Shores, fat fox.

How it's done.

Okay, okay.

Let's roll, people.

Let's go.

They do.

Who is the seller to whom you are speaking, fellow?

Hello fellow.

Welcome to your new home, Mr Palmer.

And your car.

Gift for Mr Wallace.

And that finishes at 5:30,

leaving you enough time to make the gallop.

And her sight is coming from Leroy.

Only question is what do we do about Physio?

Won't have nothing with the horse crap.

Listen to Catherine.

I don't care if they find us a strip me

of my rank and it wouldn't change how I feel, his voice tests.

Conrad Nagle, Richard tone.

William Haynes could constantly messing with Nelly's career.

We're trying so hard to get back on track.

There's some new sensibility now.

People care about morals.

I've known loss.

I've known pain.

You're what gives me life.

Sending you a little more darling.

You are what gives me life.

Just a suggestion.

And David stars a bit.

Maybe he's sporting runs.

From now on, this sort of thing is no longer acceptable.

You are what gives me life.

Try slower.

Ramona Bar can play guitar in the South of the border.

Accent.

What I'm trying to say his skin has got can no longer employ.

Your image is not helpful.

We don't need titles anymore.

That's it.

I'm sorry.

Jack Conrad has a good voice.

Is our biggest asset also the most expensive.

Yeah, you are what gives me life.

I love you.

There would be 2.

Hello Jack.

Sir, listen, there's no good way to say this.

They found George is home this morning.

Looks like he struck out with the girl.

He was saying he shot himself.

Jack.

Thank you.

So what I would suggest there would be to place subtext rather than.

Honey.

Are you OK?

Use the first one to say I have town.

Save my life.

Who?

It's not a little art, you know.

I want you to know that.

What I do means something to millions of people.

My folks didn't have the money or the education

to go to the theatre,

so they went to the vaudeville houses and then the Nickelodeon's

and you know what?

There's beauty there.

What happens up on that screen means something,

maybe not to you and your ivory tower.

But for real people on the ground, it means something.

Drunk Iike I have no idea what you're talking about.

Course you don't.

Of course you don't.

100,000 people see you on Broadway and it's a smash of the century, right?

Well, here it's a flop.

I fucking fuck.

So do me favour, darling.

Save your subtext recommendations

for your pretentious Eugene O'Neill.

Enrique Eppinger Goss had only a handful of rich geriatrics.

Give two fucks about and I'll do what I do without your help.

Huh.

Listen cat, I don't care if they find us,

they can strip him my rank and it wouldn't change how I feel.

I've no loss.

I've known pain.

You're getting your life.

I love.

You think your works?

It's great.

To win a Jack, you think it works?

Wish George could have seen it.

Yes.

Mr Conrad, you're going to miss your train.

Ohh.

Off to repair my marriage will see you bastards in a month.

Good luck with that.

Okay, don't forget your friend Manuel pulled a lot of strings to get you in here.

These people choose who stays and who goes.

So show them that you're a lady of sophistication

and we'll be back on top.

So now what did we discuss?

ING.

Not in.

Isn't, not ain't.

When in doubt, say something.

French perfection.

Also no drinking.

And try not to eat too much.

Billy.

Marian.

Eleanor.

May I please present to you, Miss Naylor Roy,

how do you do something?

Good evening, Mr ohh.

Ohh, now I'd like you to also meet Mildred Yates.

So down, Melanie.

Jonathan and Harriet Rothschild.

It's just fun.

I've spoken to leave the already looking.

No more of that kind of thing, I can assure.

And here we have attended a campaign designed by Trump.

But that's a kaki bubble.

I heard strinberg season in New York.

Do you like Miss Julie?

She is lovely and very talented.

I'm pretty.

Hi.

No, they're stitched.

With any.

All right,

Billy.

Is your new rug really.

You got it last spring.

Don't know what kind Mr.

Parker it is truly an honour to meet you.

Teddy and I saw Cardiff Blues last week.

Genius.

Thanks.

Do you play bridge, Mr Roy?

Le Pen ball.

Lovely electrician.

You're packing away from Celsius.

Be.

Are you from Mexico?

Then

Spain?

Madrid.

Wow.

How did you get into music, Mr Palmer?

I taught myself mostly incredible.

Who are your influences?

Scrub.

I like rock running off.

Do you think George Eliot was better as a novelist

or as a poet now?

He was marvellous.

Marvellous at both.

Now I do apologise,

but I must resign briefly to the power room.

I shan't be long.

And you know, right here it's got the restaurants

and of course now you can't gamble in LA

and then you can leave them.

This one guy McKay owns a few joints, but he's a little scary.

Ohh.

Jack didn't think you'd get in in time.

How was Europe?

Inspiring.

And Congrats on the new film opens tonight.

Right.

Did you know Michelangelo painted the entire Sistine Chapel on his back?

Mandy, how's our girl doing?

Ohh, she's doing great.

Perfect.

Jenny, I need to go home.

And back out there.

Heart attack.

No.

I bet Eleanor Night works so hard to get you into this.

Dying out there.

I am dying out there.

There, there.

There are awful there.

Mildred's gonna fucking rabbit on her shoulders.

It's probably still alive.

I see aspects of your career.

They don't like me.

They like you.

They don't.

We got the right director, the right publishing, everything.

OK, listen to me, Nelly.

I'm here for you.

It's you and me.

You could be a star again, Nelly.

Again, it's you and me.

You look beautiful.

OK Ohh fucking ridiculous.

What's your name?

Perfect.

Once again,

Nelly, Leroy in French.

It is French already.

Find me Kingdom.

You.

Jack.

It's good to see you too, so.

Are you holding on?

Ohh.

Well, I do miss her.

This one.

George.

Where were you referring to?

Jack, that was your brother.

Great and good to be home.

That's the attitude.

Staying strong.

She's like, and what do you think of the new wave of race films,

Mr Palmer?

I find the studios committees for the casting of Negroes inspiring,

don't you?

And he replies, do they need an electrician?

Do you know any good jokes now?

Yeah, I know.

No proposed listening to jokes rather than telling jokes,

but I have a joke.

Ohh.

Harold Lloyd and I were in France.

How you old enough.

YouTube.

I guess the movie isn't ahead.

So weird.

Another chance.

I would not get another chance.

Just what I mean with someone kindly tell me what the fuck is going on.

He shows up with a mind.

I got a pair of microphones.

Sure is worth a lot more than I'm on.

No, you must have some good

I I I am not the best joke ever on Ellie.

Isn't being funny what you do.

I believe that films like yours are gentle but virile olive branches

in these divided times is actually my please, you must play for us.

Come on now you will improve your next picture.

Yes Kelly be funny.

Ohh.

You know I just thought of 1/2 fish are on their honeymoon.

Actually I got one.

A bear and a rabbit are shitting in the woods one day

and the bear says to the rabbit, hey do you have a problem

with the shit sticking to your fur

and the rabbit finishes shitting

and he says Nope I never do.

Why?

And the bear says fan fucking tastic and he grabs the rabbit behind the ears and.

I can't believe you.
