00:09:48,555 --> 00:09:51,324
and that she hoped
to be intimate with.
184
00:09:52,492 --> 00:09:55,462
She would've been in awe.
[chuckles]
185
00:09:55,495 --> 00:09:57,531
Truman, yes, he, uh...
186
00:09:57,564 --> 00:10:01,302
People think of him
as outgoing, but it's an act.
187
00:10:01,335 --> 00:10:02,603
Like me, he's shy.
188
00:10:02,636 --> 00:10:05,472
But he refuses
to be ruled by fear.
189
00:10:05,505 --> 00:10:07,441
So...
190
00:10:07,474 --> 00:10:09,676
he becomes central.
191
00:10:09,977 --> 00:10:12,713
[David]
Truman says your only fault
is that you're perfect.
192
00:10:12,746 --> 00:10:15,349
-[laughs]
-What does that mean?
193
00:10:15,382 --> 00:10:16,617
I'm not perfect.
194
00:10:16,650 --> 00:10:18,485
It's a joke.
[laughs]
195
00:10:18,518 --> 00:10:20,321
I try, but, no.
196
00:10:20,354 --> 00:10:22,222
Nobody is.
197
00:10:22,255 --> 00:10:23,123
[chuckles]
198
00:10:23,156 --> 00:10:24,725
There seems to be
a natural connection
199
00:10:24,758 --> 00:10:27,528
between gay men
and very glamorous women.
200
00:10:27,561 --> 00:10:29,530
Why do you think that is?
201
00:10:29,563 --> 00:10:32,633
Well, we see the importance
of presentation.
202
00:10:32,666 --> 00:10:36,303
That's how we
defend ourselves.
203
00:10:36,637 --> 00:10:38,639
Underneath, though,
is someone who's
204
00:10:38,672 --> 00:10:41,308
just trying
to control their environment.
205
00:10:41,341 --> 00:10:42,643
It's a defense.
206
00:10:42,676 --> 00:10:46,446
Did you offer
to buy Truman a house?
207
00:10:46,780 --> 00:10:50,251
I don't see the need
to discuss that.
208
00:10:50,284 --> 00:10:51,452
[stammers]
209
00:10:51,485 --> 00:10:53,454
Bill was absorbing
some properties
210
00:10:53,487 --> 00:10:55,623
adjacent to us, so...
211
00:10:55,656 --> 00:10:58,459
Do you think it will be you?
212
00:10:58,492 --> 00:11:01,362
The guest of honor
at Truman's ball.
213
00:11:01,395 --> 00:11:02,596
[short laugh]
214
00:11:02,629 --> 00:11:04,665
I don't need an honorary ball
215
00:11:04,698 --> 00:11:07,735
to know that Truman and I have
a singular bond.
216
00:11:07,768 --> 00:11:10,771
It's, well, it's something
every woman deserves,
217
00:11:10,804 --> 00:11:15,376
to be made to feel like the
most important person in the
world
218
00:11:15,409 --> 00:11:18,278
by a man who truly loves her.
219
00:11:18,712 --> 00:11:23,049
Of course, in my marriage
I feel that way, too.
220
00:11:25,385 --> 00:11:27,287
[chuckles]
221
00:11:29,356 --> 00:11:30,591
White tablecloths? No!
222
00:11:30,624 --> 00:11:32,493
Absolutely not.
223
00:11:32,526 --> 00:11:33,794
But the theme is
black and white.
224
00:11:33,827 --> 00:11:37,264
Which means you have room
for a pop of color.
225
00:11:37,297 --> 00:11:38,632
Red tablecloths.
226
00:11:38,665 --> 00:11:41,468
-Yes.
-You're my guardian angel.
227
00:11:41,501 --> 00:11:43,504
-[chuckles]
-Barry!
228
00:11:43,537 --> 00:11:44,471
You, of course,
know Mrs. Paley.
229
00:11:44,505 --> 00:11:47,441
Barry is the general manager
of the Plaza.
230
00:11:47,474 --> 00:11:49,610
-Mrs. P. So good to see you.
-And you.
231
00:11:49,643 --> 00:11:51,579
[Truman]
And, Babe, have you met Lisa?
232
00:11:51,612 --> 00:11:54,715
She's outside council from
Gallery Artists and Company.
233
00:11:54,748 --> 00:11:57,618
They help plan parties and
assist with public relations,
234
00:11:57,651 --> 00:11:59,620
and Lord knows
I need help there,
235
00:11:59,653 --> 00:12:01,488
because the press is
hounding me for the guest
list,
236
00:12:01,521 --> 00:12:02,623
absolutely braying.
237
00:12:02,656 --> 00:12:05,326
Hello.
How do you do, Mrs. Paley?
238
00:12:05,359 --> 00:12:06,760
Mm.
239
00:12:06,793 --> 00:12:10,531
Lisa, share what you're
planning for the tables.
240
00:12:10,564 --> 00:12:12,766
White orchids in
mercury glass.
241
00:12:12,799 --> 00:12:15,569
Chicken hash,
your favorite, Mr. Capote.
242
00:12:15,602 --> 00:12:17,504
And a signature cocktail,
243
00:12:17,537 --> 00:12:20,174
that daiquiri punch.
244
00:12:20,207 --> 00:12:20,874
Yes.
245
00:12:20,908 --> 00:12:23,477
It's not a Labor Day barbecue.
246
00:12:23,510 --> 00:12:26,179
Excuse me. [soft chuckle]
247
00:12:28,649 --> 00:12:30,584
[Truman]
Can you wait right there?
248
00:12:30,617 --> 00:12:34,154
Can you please just excuse me?
So...
249
00:12:36,623 --> 00:12:38,592
As it happens,
and I didn't know this,
250
00:12:38,625 --> 00:12:41,495
the chippy in the ballroom
was Bill Paley's
251
00:12:41,528 --> 00:12:44,331
latest piece of east-side ass.
252
00:12:45,299 --> 00:12:46,533
[groans]
253
00:12:46,566 --> 00:12:48,602
Sometime women need help
being stronger.
254
00:12:48,635 --> 00:12:51,472
And this is
something I can do.
255
00:12:51,505 --> 00:12:54,274
My advice is...
256
00:12:54,708 --> 00:12:56,577
...dispense with the emotion.
257
00:12:56,610 --> 00:12:57,711
Play the strong wife.
258
00:12:57,744 --> 00:13:00,614
Don't let the understudy
replace you.
259
00:13:00,647 --> 00:13:05,151
Life itself is
a masquerade ball.
260
00:13:05,585 --> 00:13:08,489
[speaking French]
261
00:13:08,522 --> 00:13:11,392
...baby.
[chuckles]
262
00:13:11,425 --> 00:13:12,593
[Babe sobbing]
263
00:13:12,626 --> 00:13:14,495
What? Just confront him?
264
00:13:14,528 --> 00:13:16,597
Well, you have to come
from a place of power.
265
00:13:16,630 --> 00:13:18,599
Get all your tears out on me.
266
00:13:18,632 --> 00:13:20,534
-Oh, Truman.
-Come on.
267
00:13:20,567 --> 00:13:22,603
I thought Happy Rockefeller
was the last time.
268
00:13:22,636 --> 00:13:24,705
No, it never ended. I knew it.
269
00:13:24,738 --> 00:13:26,707
The minute I saw
that horrible girl,
270
00:13:26,740 --> 00:13:28,642
-I knew the rumors were true.
-You have to confront it.
271
00:13:28,675 --> 00:13:30,611
Tell him to get rid of it
right away
272
00:13:30,644 --> 00:13:32,646
-or there will be
big consequences, divorce.
-[sniffles]
273
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:34,648
-Shareholder lunches.
-Show him
you're not gonna stand for it.
274
00:13:34,681 --> 00:13:37,618
Yes, but those luncheons.
Those shareholders alone.
275
00:13:37,651 --> 00:13:40,487
-If it were known
he got a girl pregnant--
-Well, exactly.
276
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,323
[whispers]
My God. We...
277
00:13:50,797 --> 00:13:53,367
I love... I mean,
all of these are beautiful.
278
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:54,568
But I think this one...
279
00:13:54,601 --> 00:13:56,303
Albert, what do you think?
280
00:13:56,336 --> 00:13:57,471
I love the blue interior,
281
00:13:57,504 --> 00:13:59,473
which is kind of dark
and exciting.
282
00:13:59,506 --> 00:14:01,208
[Babe and Bill arguing
in distance]
283
00:14:01,241 --> 00:14:02,342
And this...
284
00:14:02,376 --> 00:14:04,712
-[Bill] I don't!
-...keep telling lies
upon lies!
285
00:14:04,745 --> 00:14:06,480
-[Bill] It's not
a lie, goddamn it!
-[chuckles softly]
286
00:14:06,513 --> 00:14:07,615
[Babe]
Go to the hotel. I don't care.
287
00:14:07,648 --> 00:14:09,483
I like the gold edge on it.
288
00:14:09,516 --> 00:14:10,584
[door slams in distance]
289
00:14:10,617 --> 00:14:13,354
[footsteps approaching]
290
00:14:13,387 --> 00:14:14,521
[door shuts]
291
00:14:14,554 --> 00:14:17,190
Hi, sweetie.
292
00:14:22,529 --> 00:14:23,630
Tell me they're not filming.
293
00:14:23,664 --> 00:14:25,799
Oh, no, don't worry, dear
heart. I own every frame.
294
00:14:25,832 --> 00:14:28,502
-Nobody will see anything
we don't want them to.
-Okay.
295
00:14:28,535 --> 00:14:31,238
Now, boys, equipment off.
Equipment off.
296
00:14:31,271 --> 00:14:32,306
Thank you.
297
00:14:32,339 --> 00:14:33,040
Now, equipment off.
298
00:14:33,073 --> 00:14:35,342
Yes, he's going
to the Carlyle.
299
00:14:35,375 --> 00:14:36,343
For the next week.
300
00:14:36,376 --> 00:14:37,410
Well, good. Hmm.
301
00:14:37,444 --> 00:14:40,214
Well, I wanted to take you
through all of these--
302
00:14:40,247 --> 00:14:41,281
Truman.
303
00:14:41,315 --> 00:14:42,249
-Oh-- [clicks tongue]
-They're still recording.
304
00:14:42,282 --> 00:14:45,653
-Shut it off! David, I told
you! -Please.
305
00:14:45,686 --> 00:14:47,621
-Shut it off. Please.
-Oh.
306
00:14:47,654 --> 00:14:50,491
-[Babe] Shall we start?
-Turn it.
307
00:14:50,524 --> 00:14:51,825
Okay.
308
00:14:51,859 --> 00:14:58,365
Invitation paper must always
be 100-pound premium matte
stock.
309
00:14:59,366 --> 00:15:00,300
Uh-huh.
310
00:15:00,334 --> 00:15:04,037
-[chuckles]
-And have it individually cut.
311
00:15:04,371 --> 00:15:07,308
Now, this...
[exhales]
312
00:15:07,341 --> 00:15:09,209
Ivory is overused.
313
00:15:09,242 --> 00:15:10,377
I like...
314
00:15:10,410 --> 00:15:11,478
sand dollar.
315
00:15:11,511 --> 00:15:12,780
That's what this is, I think.
316
00:15:12,813 --> 00:15:14,615
-[chuckles softly]
-Now, this is just a template,
317
00:15:14,648 --> 00:15:17,585
but it should read something
like...
318
00:15:17,618 --> 00:15:20,621
"Truman Capote
319
00:15:20,654 --> 00:15:23,490
"cordially invites
you to a ball
320
00:15:23,523 --> 00:15:25,326
celebrating..."
321
00:15:25,359 --> 00:15:27,394
Madame X.
322
00:15:27,427 --> 00:15:28,395
[Bill]
That "X" is where
323
00:15:28,428 --> 00:15:29,630
Babe's name goes, right?
324
00:15:29,663 --> 00:15:32,533
All will be
revealed, Mr. Paley.
325
00:15:32,566 --> 00:15:35,168
[chuckling softly]
326
00:15:35,569 --> 00:15:36,737
This is so beautiful.
327
00:15:36,770 --> 00:15:40,374
It's very important
to have a crisp edge.
328
00:15:40,407 --> 00:15:41,575
Never deckled.
329
00:15:41,608 --> 00:15:43,477
-Fascinating.
-Yes.
330
00:15:43,510 --> 00:15:44,645
That will make it perfect.
331
00:15:44,678 --> 00:15:48,482
Everything must always be
just perfect--
332
00:15:48,515 --> 00:15:50,351
no less, no more.
333
00:15:50,384 --> 00:15:52,319
Perfect.
334
00:15:59,126 --> 00:16:03,130
You see,
this moment in America's...
335
00:16:03,163 --> 00:16:07,400
This gilded age
is so extraordinary.
336
00:16:07,701 --> 00:16:12,339
Nobody ever sees "society."
337
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,509
The dance of old moneys
338
00:16:15,542 --> 00:16:17,578
commingling with the new.
339
00:16:17,611 --> 00:16:19,713
All the rules they have.
340
00:16:19,746 --> 00:16:20,781
That's what this is,
341
00:16:20,814 --> 00:16:23,150
that's what we're documenting.
342
00:16:23,183 --> 00:16:29,422
An American royalty and
the rituals enshrined therein.
343
00:16:29,856 --> 00:16:32,692
The story's never been told.
344
00:16:32,993 --> 00:16:36,797
And the devil is in the
detail, of course,
345
00:16:36,830 --> 00:16:40,501
because their lives
are positively Proustian.
346
00:16:40,534 --> 00:16:42,636
If you can get in.
347
00:16:42,669 --> 00:16:44,738
Their tables,
their invitations,
348
00:16:44,771 --> 00:16:46,807
their who's-whos.
349
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:50,144
The scandal behind the luster.
Mm.
350
00:16:50,177 --> 00:16:52,746
Like when I made you shoot
C.Z.'s painting
351
00:16:52,779 --> 00:16:55,583
when she wasn't in the room.
[chuckles]
352
00:16:55,616 --> 00:16:57,517
-[creaking]
-[whispers] Hurry.
353
00:16:59,753 --> 00:17:02,255
[door closes]
354
00:17:02,589 --> 00:17:03,690
So you see,
355
00:17:03,724 --> 00:17:08,162
even the fabulously rich
are naked under their clothes.
356
00:17:08,195 --> 00:17:11,165
Before she was a goddess
of the gilded cage,
357
00:17:11,198 --> 00:17:15,135
C.Z. was a free-spirited girl
living in Mexico City,
358

so many declarations

for that kind of intimacy.

Here's the fact.

Truman takes advantage
of this fear and aloneness.

He makes us into
his number-one friend.

He makes himself out to be
our great protector,

but really, is he?
910
00:46:07,634 --> 00:46:10,471

some of us swans still think--

that he's our best friend.
912

But here's the truth.
913
00:46:14,408 --> 00:46:17,344

is to be very much
