00:00:08,842 --> 00:00:10,110
I'm late,
I'm late, I know.
2
00:00:10,110 --> 00:00:11,478
My poor Dutch Master daffodils
3
00:00:11,478 --> 00:00:13,480
were positively shivering
in this cold.
4
00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:16,050
I had to get them all in
before the deep freeze.
5
00:00:16,050 --> 00:00:18,552
There's still one shivering
daffodil who needs you.
6
00:00:18,552 --> 00:00:20,554
I'm sorry, my little flower.
7
00:00:20,554 --> 00:00:22,656
Thank you for running
this errand with me.
8
00:00:22,656 --> 00:00:24,792
I need durable straw hats
for gardening.
9
00:00:24,792 --> 00:00:27,627
Terry is the only one I trust.
10
00:00:29,529 --> 00:00:31,365
[Terry]
Not today.
11
00:00:31,365 --> 00:00:34,268
You'll have to come back
for the closeout sale.
12
00:00:34,268 --> 00:00:35,703
[Truman]
Terry.
13
00:00:35,703 --> 00:00:39,306
Oh, Mrs. Guest, Mr. Capote.
14
00:00:39,306 --> 00:00:41,408
What... closeout sale?
15
00:00:41,408 --> 00:00:44,211
Terry, no.
Galore is an institution,
16
00:00:44,211 --> 00:00:46,647
- and you've been here forever.
- 44 years.
17
00:00:46,647 --> 00:00:48,382
Nobody wants hats anymore,
I'm afraid.
18
00:00:48,382 --> 00:00:50,284
The end of an era.
19
00:00:50,284 --> 00:00:51,785
I was planning to retire,
20
00:00:51,785 --> 00:00:54,255
but I didn't think
it would be like this.
21
00:00:54,255 --> 00:00:57,358
Where am I going to get
my good gardening hats now?
22
00:00:57,358 --> 00:00:59,126
Well, how many
have you got left, Terry?
23
00:00:59,126 --> 00:01:02,096
Doesn't matter,
I'll take them all.
24
00:01:02,096 --> 00:01:04,365
I'll get some
for Bunny Mellon as well.
25
00:01:04,365 --> 00:01:06,367
Oh, she's gonna be just sick.
26
00:01:06,367 --> 00:01:08,768
[Terry]
I'll go see what we have
in the back.
27
00:01:11,338 --> 00:01:14,275
C.Z., do you remember
that Easter a few years ago?
28
00:01:14,275 --> 00:01:17,678
You, me, Slim, Lee and Babe
had Good Friday lunch
29
00:01:17,678 --> 00:01:20,381
at La Cote and we got so tipsy
30
00:01:20,381 --> 00:01:22,383
we thought we'd be
brash and brassy
31
00:01:22,383 --> 00:01:24,385
and buy outlandish
Easter bonnets.
32
00:01:24,385 --> 00:01:27,121
And Babe found
that towering floral thing
33
00:01:27,121 --> 00:01:28,622
with ribbons
flowing down her back.
34
00:01:28,622 --> 00:01:30,591
And it had faux lilies
like whipped cream.
35
00:01:30,591 --> 00:01:33,260
She looked like a dessert.
I told her so.
36
00:01:33,260 --> 00:01:36,463
[laughs] I've never seen
Babe laugh so hard.
37
00:01:36,463 --> 00:01:38,098
[chuckles]
38
00:01:40,067 --> 00:01:42,102
How is she?
39
00:01:46,139 --> 00:01:48,108
Um...
40
00:01:48,108 --> 00:01:50,577
She's good.
She's getting the best care.
41
00:01:51,478 --> 00:01:54,048
It hasn't spread
to any other organs, so...
42
00:01:54,048 --> 00:01:58,586
Hmm. A heart so cold,
even cancer couldn't touch it.
43
00:01:58,586 --> 00:02:00,521
Truman, don't.
44
00:02:00,521 --> 00:02:03,724
Oh, I'm gonna miss hats.
45
00:02:03,724 --> 00:02:07,061
In the South,
everyone wore them.
46
00:02:07,061 --> 00:02:09,630
Rich folk, poor folk,
white, colored.
47
00:02:09,630 --> 00:02:13,367
A hat was a symbol of hope.
48
00:02:13,367 --> 00:02:16,670
My mother had
a marvelous collection.
49
00:02:16,670 --> 00:02:19,673
She used to let me
keep the boxes.
50
00:02:19,673 --> 00:02:23,544
The tissue paper, the smells.
51
00:02:23,544 --> 00:02:26,714
- I've got ten left, Mrs. Guest.
- Ooh.
52
00:02:26,714 --> 00:02:28,716
I-I can't do delivery anymore.
53
00:02:28,716 --> 00:02:32,085
Oh, no matter.
I'll send Luis around.
54
00:02:34,655 --> 00:02:36,156
Should I?
55
00:02:36,156 --> 00:02:37,591
- [laughs]
- Let's swing by Tiffany's.
56
00:02:37,591 --> 00:02:39,627
Kate's in her final year
of school,
57
00:02:39,627 --> 00:02:42,263
and I want to surprise her
with a string of pearls.
58
00:02:42,263 --> 00:02:44,665
The real thing
for the real thing.
59
00:02:44,665 --> 00:02:46,533
That's what I'm going to
write on the card.
60
00:02:46,533 --> 00:02:48,369
So, how's it going
with your protégé?
61
00:02:48,369 --> 00:02:50,804
Oh, my God,
she's the Second Coming.
62
00:02:50,804 --> 00:02:52,406
And she was born to model.
63
00:02:52,406 --> 00:02:54,441
I'm going to turn her
into the next Veruschka.
64
00:02:54,441 --> 00:02:56,744
Veruschka? She's ancient.
65
00:02:56,744 --> 00:02:59,113
All the girls want to be
like Christie Brinkley now.
66
00:02:59,113 --> 00:03:01,215
No, but Kate's not like that.
67
00:03:01,215 --> 00:03:05,085
That Colgate smile,
vulgar tan nonsense.
68
00:03:05,085 --> 00:03:07,187
She's a classic beauty.
69
00:03:07,187 --> 00:03:08,522
She's beautiful
because she's young.
70
00:03:08,522 --> 00:03:10,324
Everybody who's young
is beautiful.
71
00:03:10,324 --> 00:03:13,093
I only wish someone had told me
that when I was that age.
72
00:03:13,093 --> 00:03:16,029
- Oh, everybody told you.
- [laughs softly]
73
00:03:16,830 --> 00:03:19,800
Mm, it's good,
74
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:23,470
but don't you think
you could go a tad higher?
75
00:03:23,470 --> 00:03:25,472
You know, Dusty Springfield
76
00:03:25,472 --> 00:03:29,476
used to tuck a maxi pad under
there to give it more oomph.
77
00:03:29,476 --> 00:03:32,046
Where's your pocketbook, Kate?
I'll see if you've got one.
78
00:03:32,046 --> 00:03:35,115
No, Truman.
79
00:03:35,115 --> 00:03:37,751
What's got your bonnet
in a bunch?
80
00:03:37,751 --> 00:03:40,287
This is your big day.
81
00:03:40,287 --> 00:03:42,289
Girls would be
tripping over themselves
82
00:03:42,289 --> 00:03:45,025
to get a photo shoot
with Dick Avedon.
83
00:03:45,025 --> 00:03:47,361
- Sorry.
- Hmm.
84
00:03:47,361 --> 00:03:50,397
I am grateful.
85
00:03:50,397 --> 00:03:53,400
It's just...
86
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,570
[laughs] Well, I mean,
it's a little matronly.
87
00:03:56,570 --> 00:03:58,439
[laughs]
88
00:03:58,439 --> 00:04:01,775
Why don't you leave
the styling to the stylists?
89

[laughs]
90
00:04:04,545 --> 00:04:08,282
Back when I threw
my Black and White Ball in 1966,
91
00:04:08,282 --> 00:04:12,586
Mr. Kenneth's salon
was hotter than Studio 54.
92
00:04:17,524 --> 00:04:19,727
Thought you were
gonna stop drinking.
93
00:04:19,727 --> 00:04:23,497
Champagne isn't drinking.
It's good for the stomach.
94
00:04:23,497 --> 00:04:25,465
Like a digestif.
95
00:04:27,434 --> 00:04:32,106
Don't you pull your sourpuss
with me, dear.
96
00:04:32,106 --> 00:04:36,377
Dick is going to fawn over you,
and so will

all the magazine editors
I'm going to hook you up with.

00:04:40,414 --> 00:04:45,152
Grace Mirabella at Vogue,
she's a dear friend.
99
00:04:45,152 --> 00:04:47,787
By this time next year,
you'll be on the cover.
100
00:04:50,190 --> 00:04:52,126
Now, Kenneth,
how are we getting along?
101
00:04:52,126 --> 00:04:53,794
- We mustn't be late for lunch.
- Yes.

00:10:17,351 --> 00:10:19,486
- All right,
let's get to brass tacks.
- Hmm.
176
00:10:19,486 --> 00:10:22,523
Is Peter Beard really ready
to marry you?
177
00:10:22,523 --> 00:10:23,724
Spill the beans.
178
00:10:23,724 --> 00:10:26,727
Yes, I think so.
179
00:10:26,727 --> 00:10:28,596
Well, he's kicked
the barbiturates,
180
00:10:28,596 --> 00:10:30,431
he's got enough money
to keep us going.
181
00:10:30,431 --> 00:10:32,466
God, he is so sexy, I don't
even care about the money.
182
00:10:32,466 --> 00:10:35,069
- It's the sex.
- [stifled laugh]
183
00:10:35,069 --> 00:10:37,605
Montauk, those weekends.
184
00:10:37,605 --> 00:10:40,207
Yes, but, Lee, you can't be
having money issues.
185
00:10:40,207 --> 00:10:43,344
Sell the place in London.
You're never there.
186
00:10:43,344 --> 00:10:46,480
- Or Paris.
- I need them in case.
187
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:50,618
[sighs] I just wish he would
fucking stop coming here.
188
00:10:50,618 --> 00:10:52,620
[Slim]
I could throw a glass
of Prosecco in his face.
189
00:10:52,620 --> 00:10:54,355
Maybe then he'd get the message.
190
00:10:54,355 --> 00:10:56,523
No, he would just lap it up.
191
00:10:56,523 --> 00:10:59,760
We're going to be exemplary,
and you know it.
192
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,463
We would be in the Post
tomorrow, if not tonight.
193
00:11:02,463 --> 00:11:06,500
Every waiter is a spy and every
diner is someone's tipster.
194
00:11:06,500 --> 00:11:08,568

195
00:11:14,374 --> 00:11:16,343

[Truman]
Oh, hi. My God.
197
00:11:18,445 --> 00:11:19,747
I didn't see you back there.
198
00:11:19,747 --> 00:11:23,350
You both look wonderful.
So wonderful.
199
00:11:23,350 --> 00:11:26,053
Lee, I need to tell you so much,
200
00:11:26,053 --> 00:11:28,055
your sister...
201
00:11:28,055 --> 00:11:29,356
Oh, well, that's...
I'll save it.
202
00:11:29,356 --> 00:11:31,725
Yes. Do.
203
00:11:31,725 --> 00:11:33,227
So...
204
00:11:33,227 --> 00:11:35,629
A new swan?
A cygnet in training?
205
00:11:35,629 --> 00:11:38,098
Yes? Hello, dear.
206
00:11:38,098 --> 00:11:39,767
- Hi.
- Oh, yes.
207
00:11:39,767 --> 00:11:43,103
We're off to Dick's,
he's photographing her.
208
00:11:43,103 --> 00:11:45,272
Kate Harrington,
this is Lee Radziwill.
209
00:11:47,808 --> 00:11:51,779
I'd let my hair fall naturally
were I you, darling.
210
00:11:51,779 --> 00:11:54,214
I mean, you're not
211
00:11:54,214 --> 00:11:58,052
in the Daughters
of the American Revolution.
212
00:11:58,052 --> 00:12:00,720
Send Dicky my best.
213
00:12:02,222 --> 00:12:03,423
Can we have lunch?
214
00:12:06,193 --> 00:12:09,230
Sure, Truman, sure.
215
00:12:09,230 --> 00:12:10,664
Call me.
216
00:12:16,136 --> 00:12:17,404
[sniffles]
217
00:12:19,539 --> 00:12:22,509
Well...
[chuckles]
218
00:12:22,509 --> 00:12:26,746
Maybe we don't have dessert
before Dick shoots you, my dear.
219
00:12:43,764 --> 00:12:46,400
- [Truman] What?
- Jesus, Truman.
220
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,235
You've-you've dressed her
for a goddamn
221
00:12:48,235 --> 00:12:51,105
Westport Ladies Auxiliary

222
00:12:51,105 --> 00:12:53,040
Where's the cucumber sandwiches?
223
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,342
- I told you, Truman.
- Yeah, see?
224
00:12:55,342 --> 00:12:57,278
She told you, Truman.
Kate, come here.
225
00:12:57,278 --> 00:12:59,213
Follow me, we'll fix this.
226
00:12:59,213 --> 00:13:00,381
Jules, hey.
227
00:13:00,381 --> 00:13:02,516
Yeah, Dick.
228
00:13:02,516 --> 00:13:04,718
Take Kate, and you two
find some crap you like
229
00:13:04,718 --> 00:13:08,088
while I explain what year it is
to Uncle Truman.
230
00:13:08,088 --> 00:13:11,258
Oh, and, um,
let Jules fix your hair.
231
00:13:11,258 --> 00:13:14,428
He's a genius,
you're gonna be great.
232
00:13:14,428 --> 00:13:16,664
Nothing here can't be fixed.
233
00:13:16,664 --> 00:13:18,699
[whispers]
It's magic land.
234
00:13:18,699 --> 00:13:20,801
What's the matter with you?
What do you think you're doing?
235
00:13:20,801 --> 00:13:23,037
It's 1978.
236
00:13:23,037 --> 00:13:24,738
What year are you stuck in?
237
00:13:24,738 --> 00:13:27,541
Well, I can't tell you, honestly.
238
00:13:27,541 --> 00:13:29,276
- [laughs]
- Jesus, Tru.
239
00:13:29,276 --> 00:13:32,146
What are you...
what are you doing?
240
00:13:32,146 --> 00:13:34,748
- Are you working?
- Yes, on the book, Dicky.
241
00:13:34,748 --> 00:13:36,616
Mm. No, you're not.
242
00:13:37,551 --> 00:13:40,354
Well, my confidence
took a bit of a knock
243
00:13:40,354 --> 00:13:42,156
after what happened, sure.
244
00:13:42,156 --> 00:13:43,557
Yeah, and wasting
more of your time
245
00:13:43,557 --> 00:13:46,060
trying to sell yourself
to the movies?
246
00:13:46,060 --> 00:13:49,597
Are you letting all those ladies
get to you?
247
00:13:49,597 --> 00:13:51,698
I mean, I told them.
248
00:13:53,233 --> 00:13:54,802
What did you tell them, Dick?
249
00:13:54,802 --> 00:13:58,472
"What did you expect of him?
He's a writer.
250
00:13:58,472 --> 00:14:00,174
"You think he was just gonna
watch you guys
251
00:14:00,174 --> 00:14:01,542
and not use any of it?"

00:14:01,542 --> 00:14:05,279
Thank you, Richard.

Don't let them win.

- Do you really want to model?
- I'm not sure.
260

I might be better
at the styling part.

"The only thing that matters

is how many column inches
you take up on the page."

If you're an artist, maybe,
but in my circles,
307

it's all about knowing
when to enter and when to exit.

I will not be seen
like this again.
312
00:16:49,509 --> 00:16:51,812
You know, I was coming back
from Dick's the other day
313
00:16:51,812 --> 00:16:55,616
and I happened to touch Kate's
hand in the back of the cab.
314
00:16:55,616 --> 00:16:57,751
It was startling.
315
00:16:57,751 --> 00:17:00,186
Look at these liver spots.

00:17:03,123 --> 00:17:05,759
And the thing is,
I still feel like I'm 30,
318
00:17:05,759 --> 00:17:08,295
so why shouldn't I act like it?
319
00:17:08,295 --> 00:17:10,664
Everybody gets old
and then they just go,
320
00:17:10,664 --> 00:17:15,336
"Oh, I guess I'm old," and so
then they shrivel up and die.
321
00:17:15,336 --> 00:17:17,771
But maybe the secret
to immortality...
322
00:17:19,106 --> 00:17:21,441
...is to never admit defeat.
323
00:17:22,476 --> 00:17:24,278
The secret to immortality,
324
00:17:24,278 --> 00:17:27,514
for you, Truman, is to write.
325
00:17:27,514 --> 00:17:29,717
Keep writing.
326
00:17:29,717 --> 00:17:32,319

so much for this book.

[Truman] [laughs]
Because he won't screw her.

That's why she's wearing

No, it's nothing

00:18:32,613 --> 00:18:35,482
I am going
on television tonight.
347
00:18:35,482 --> 00:18:39,086
A talk show, and I get nervous.
348
00:18:39,086 --> 00:18:42,523
I've got to be on,
and there's a sweet spot
349
00:18:42,523 --> 00:18:46,627
right around three and a half
drinks when I really sing.
350
00:18:46,627 --> 00:18:48,995
You said you were
gonna write today.
351
00:18:50,764 --> 00:18:54,235
- You promised me.
- Yeah, tell me,
what did I promise you?
352
00:18:54,235 --> 00:18:57,238
Paying your bills, getting you
headshots by the best,
353
00:18:57,238 --> 00:19:00,608
and an agent and jobs.
354
00:19:00,608 --> 00:19:02,776
Is that not enough?
355
00:19:02,776 --> 00:19:05,345
Hmm?
356
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:11,185
- [crying]
- Oh, dear, dear, dear, dear.
357
00:19:11,185 --> 00:19:13,353
I didn't mean...
358
00:19:14,521 --> 00:19:17,458
- [sniffles]
- It's just...
359
00:19:17,458 --> 00:19:21,228
I'm doing the best I can,
you have to believe me.
360
00:19:21,228 --> 00:19:23,163
Kate, I...
361
00:19:25,766 --> 00:19:28,736
You know, three years ago,
I said on Johnny Carson's show
362
00:19:28,736 --> 00:19:33,273
that Jacqueline Susann looked
like a truck driver in drag.
363
00:19:34,341 --> 00:19:36,477
- [laughs]
- And I am still reaping
364
00:19:36,477 --> 00:19:38,612
the benefits
from that one little joke.
365
00:19:38,612 --> 00:19:41,081
All the talk shows want me on.
366
00:19:41,081 --> 00:19:43,217
They want me to talk
about my feuds...

and who I hate and... ♪

the rent now.
369
00:19:50,257 --> 00:19:54,561
It's not through writing,
it's through being a persona.
370
00:19:55,596 --> 00:19:58,198
That's my career now.
371
00:20:01,134 --> 00:20:03,303
You're just like him.
372
00:20:04,371 --> 00:20:06,039
Papa.
373
00:20:07,140 --> 00:20:09,175
I thought you were different.
374
00:20:10,377 --> 00:20:13,714
But it's always the same,
isn't it?
375
00:20:13,714 --> 00:20:16,216
It's all the same.
376
00:20:16,216 --> 00:20:18,586

00:20:18,586 --> 00:20:21,488
You're right,
I know, I know, I know.
378
00:20:23,390 --> 00:20:26,694
Just let me get through tonight.
379
00:20:26,694 --> 00:20:30,631
[laughs] I don't know what kind
of men are going to be left.
380
00:20:30,631 --> 00:20:33,067
I mean, Peter Beard,
you know, he,
381
00:20:33,067 --> 00:20:35,302
he was a throwback
to the swashbucklers,
382
00:20:35,302 --> 00:20:37,204
but there's not a lot like him.
383
00:20:37,204 --> 00:20:39,240
I mean, have all
the straight men
384
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,108
moved back to Los Angeles?
385
00:20:41,108 --> 00:20:43,477
[laughter]
386
00:20:43,477 --> 00:20:45,479
Ten years is all I can do
in a marriage.
387
00:20:45,479 --> 00:20:47,581
- Mm.
- Ten with Howard,
388
00:20:47,581 --> 00:20:49,316
ten with Leland
and ten with Ken.
389
00:20:49,316 --> 00:20:51,585
- [laughter]
- Don't laugh.
390
00:20:51,585 --> 00:20:53,754
Come on, at least, at least now,
391
00:20:53,754 --> 00:20:56,090
divorce is a badge of honor
and not a scarlet letter.
392
00:20:56,090 --> 00:20:58,592
Well, it's that we expect it
to always stay
393
00:20:58,592 --> 00:21:00,294
magical and exciting.
394
00:21:00,294 --> 00:21:01,462
It doesn't
have to be good, Slim,
395
00:21:01,462 --> 00:21:03,197
it just has to be reliable.
396
00:21:03,197 --> 00:21:05,099
No, Cee.
397
00:21:05,099 --> 00:21:08,068
Why can't it be
everything all at once?
398
00:21:08,068 --> 00:21:11,338
Sex, money
and an endless adventure.
399
00:21:11,338 --> 00:21:14,575
Because that would be
yet another story.
400
00:21:14,575 --> 00:21:17,444
Did you catch Truman's
talk show appearance?
401
00:21:18,779 --> 00:21:21,215
[Lee]
Gore Vidal is suing.
402
00:21:21,215 --> 00:21:23,751
And Truman, in order
not to be served papers,
403
00:21:23,751 --> 00:21:26,587
is apparently hiding in a rehab.
404
00:21:26,587 --> 00:21:29,189
[C.Z.]
He's trying. He really is.
405
00:21:29,189 --> 00:21:31,325
He told me, Lee,
he tried to call you
406
00:21:31,325 --> 00:21:33,694
because you told the story,
you can confirm it.
407
00:21:33,694 --> 00:21:36,564
If you testify,
you could save him.
408
00:21:36,564 --> 00:21:40,067
His reputation,
and what's more is...
409
00:21:40,067 --> 00:21:41,569
he has no money now.
410
00:21:41,569 --> 00:21:44,338
- He could lose it all.
- [Lee] The story of Jackie
411
00:21:44,338 --> 00:21:47,207
being manhandled by Gore,
I have no recollection of it.
412
00:21:47,207 --> 00:21:49,743
It never happened,
I never told it.
413
00:21:49,743 --> 00:21:53,747
Besides, really,
I am so tired of it all.
414
00:21:53,747 --> 00:21:55,449
Just two fags fighting.
415
00:21:55,449 --> 00:21:58,151
I'm not getting involved anyway.
416
00:21:59,519 --> 00:22:01,355
[C.Z.]
The way she said it.
417
00:22:01,355 --> 00:22:03,657
"Just two fags fighting."
418
00:22:03,657 --> 00:22:05,492
I mean, really, Lee.
419
00:22:05,492 --> 00:22:07,428
We owe them
a modicum of respect.
420
00:22:07,428 --> 00:22:09,063
The homosexuals, I mean.
421
00:22:09,063 --> 00:22:11,198
We've all relied on walkers
over the years.
422
00:22:11,198 --> 00:22:14,101
A safe man to take us out,
laugh with,
423
00:22:14,101 --> 00:22:17,738
a buffer against
prying eyes and hands.
424
00:22:17,738 --> 00:22:21,075
What's more,
a homosexual won't drop you
425
00:22:21,075 --> 00:22:22,376
after you reach a certain age.
426
00:22:22,376 --> 00:22:25,246
If anything,
they lift you higher.
427
00:22:25,246 --> 00:22:27,715
It is a vital relationship.
428
00:22:27,715 --> 00:22:30,084
There's a way one can be
in their company
429
00:22:30,084 --> 00:22:32,620
that's different than how you
have to be with other women.
430
00:22:32,620 --> 00:22:34,622
You can finally drop the armor.
431
00:22:34,622 --> 00:22:38,092
I don't know if today's women
wear armor at all.
432
00:22:38,092 --> 00:22:41,362
[laughs] They don't have to,
they're "liberated."
433
00:22:41,362 --> 00:22:45,065
Having to go out with a man,
gay or straight, it's over.
434
00:22:45,065 --> 00:22:48,168
- The end of the walker.
- [Babe] Oh, gosh, I need gloves.

00:22:48,168 --> 00:22:50,070
Yes, with all these treatments,
436
00:22:50,070 --> 00:22:53,574
I'm beginning to understand what
a pincushion must feel like.
437
00:22:53,574 --> 00:22:55,609
Needles in my hands, arms.
438
00:22:55,609 --> 00:22:57,111
Bill noticed the bruising
439
00:22:57,111 --> 00:22:59,113
and, of course,
had to make a comment.
440
00:22:59,113 --> 00:23:02,716
So, from now on,
I'm going to be covered

Driving gloves, daywear gloves.
443
00:23:07,755 --> 00:23:11,025
Hell, I'm even going
to start a trend:
444
00:23:11,025 --> 00:23:12,726
watching TV wearing gloves.
445
00:23:12,726 --> 00:23:14,428

- [chuckles]
- I got you, buddy.
517
00:26:53,714 --> 00:26:55,449
Come here, let me show you
how it works.
518
00:26:55,449 --> 00:26:58,352
You want to push
that red button down,
519
00:26:58,352 --> 00:27:00,321
hold it for about
three seconds.
520
00:27:00,321 --> 00:27:01,589
That should reset it.
521
00:27:01,589 --> 00:27:03,390
You want to give it a try?
522
00:27:03,390 --> 00:27:06,026
[chuckles]
523
00:27:06,026 --> 00:27:09,330
If Jack could see me now.
524
00:27:09,330 --> 00:27:11,265
Two, three.
525
00:27:11,265 --> 00:27:14,602
There you go.
All right.
526
00:27:14,602 --> 00:27:16,270
Is that it?
527
00:27:16,270 --> 00:27:18,372
Well, I might need to get
in there for a second.
528
00:27:18,372 --> 00:27:21,242
Mm. Usually, when
something breaks,
529
00:27:21,242 --> 00:27:23,644
I just learn to live around it.
530
00:27:23,644 --> 00:27:26,680
Jack is, um... Oh, never mind.
531
00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:28,682
Tell me about you.
Who are you?
532
00:27:28,682 --> 00:27:31,819
Where are you from?
Not from Palm Springs?
533
00:27:31,819 --> 00:27:36,090
No. Illinois.
Born and bred.
534
00:27:36,090 --> 00:27:38,559
Illinois.
Yes, I thought as much.
535
00:27:38,559 --> 00:27:42,363
You're too corn-fed
to be a desert rat.
536
00:27:42,363 --> 00:27:44,798
So, did you come out here
for a girl?
537
00:27:44,798 --> 00:27:46,567
To get away from one, actually.
538
00:27:46,567 --> 00:27:48,435
Yeah, she was awful pretty.
539
00:27:48,435 --> 00:27:50,704
Almost married her, too.
540
00:27:50,704 --> 00:27:52,706
Dad had a sugar beet factory.
541
00:27:52,706 --> 00:27:55,242
Gonna set me up real good.
542
00:27:55,242 --> 00:27:58,145
Mm, a beautiful girl,
a stable job,
543
00:27:58,145 --> 00:28:00,581
and yet you came running out
to the desert.
544
00:28:00,581 --> 00:28:05,286
So you're an experiences person.
Life over comfort.
545
00:28:05,286 --> 00:28:08,222
I'm exactly the same way.
546
00:28:08,222 --> 00:28:12,192
What's your dream, if you could
do anything in the world?
547
00:28:12,192 --> 00:28:13,727
Probably open a hog shop.
548
00:28:13,727 --> 00:28:15,362
A what?
549
00:28:15,362 --> 00:28:19,266
You know, motorcycles.
Sell 'em, fix 'em.

555
00:28:33,047 --> 00:28:36,717
Yeah. All done.
556
00:28:36,717 --> 00:28:39,620
You know, I usually do
air condition repair, too.
557
00:28:39,620 --> 00:28:41,721
Marvelous.
558
00:28:45,692 --> 00:28:50,030
Say, Rick, I wonder if you'd be
at all interested
559
00:28:50,030 --> 00:28:52,432
in having your cock sucked.
560
00:29:12,452 --> 00:29:15,489
So, have you ever let a man
do that to you,
561
00:29:15,489 --> 00:29:18,225
or just plain Jane
562
00:29:18,225 --> 00:29:21,562
in Buckwheat, Illinois?
563
00:29:21,562 --> 00:29:23,697
No, never.
564
00:29:23,697 --> 00:29:25,733
Might have been the best
blow job I've ever had
565
00:29:25,733 --> 00:29:28,135
in my life, though.
566
00:29:28,135 --> 00:29:33,039
Well, the secret is to glide
with the thumb.

My friend Wallis Simpson

00:29:46,253 --> 00:29:49,423
Nantes. Where's that?
571
00:29:49,423 --> 00:29:53,360
France, dear heart.
Have you been to Europe?
572
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:57,197
Been once.
Went to Korea.
573
00:29:57,197 --> 00:30:00,267
Well, that's the best part
of Europe.
574
00:30:00,267 --> 00:30:04,505
If you've seen Korea,
you've seen the whole place.

You're just darling.
Don't ever change.
576
00:30:07,741 --> 00:30:10,277
- Promise me.
- Hmm.
577
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:15,482

have trouble

of anything, are you?

00:30:22,623 --> 00:30:26,260
Hmm. I don't like snakes much.

I'll buy you anything
you want.

Mm.

It's the big song.

However, on a yacht
the quarters are very close.

It's much harder to be discreet.

Now, my friend Minnie Peltz,
she'd been married ten years,
612

and as far as her husband knew,
613
00:31:57,618 --> 00:31:58,719
she'd only ever used the toilet

00:31:58,719 --> 00:32:00,821
to flush
the occasional goldfish.
615
00:32:00,821 --> 00:32:03,290
And she planned
to keep that appearance up,

00:32:03,290 --> 00:32:04,758
thank you very much.

00:32:04,758 --> 00:32:09,263

she didn't crap once.

her belly was sticking out
further than her feet.
621

She was having contractions.

Finally, they were forced
to drop anchor,
623
00:32:23,811 --> 00:32:27,181

a suppository.

and they slather it in Crisco

- and they stick it
up your butthole.
- Mm-hmm.

- Mm-hmm. [chuckling]

690
00:35:17,585 --> 00:35:20,054
The Pink Panther Strikes Again
all in one day
691
00:35:20,054 --> 00:35:21,488
when it was 120 degrees out.
692
00:35:21,488 --> 00:35:23,824
Guess who keeps those
movie theaters cool.
693
00:35:23,824 --> 00:35:27,628
I'm going mad.
I'm actually going mad.
694
00:35:27,628 --> 00:35:30,431
C.Z., have you seen Lee?
695
00:35:30,431 --> 00:35:32,399
Because she's going to help me
696
00:35:32,399 --> 00:35:34,401
with this hideous lawsuit
of Gore's.
697
00:35:34,401 --> 00:35:37,204
[Rick]
You're being sued? Why?
698
00:35:37,204 --> 00:35:41,075
Oh, because, dearest man,
I-I went on a talk show
699
00:35:41,075 --> 00:35:45,279
and I dared to tell the truth
about Gore Vidal.
700
00:35:45,279 --> 00:35:47,748
Who's Gore Vidal?
701
00:35:47,748 --> 00:35:50,484
Oh, an untalented hack
of a writer
702
00:35:50,484 --> 00:35:52,553
who was thrown out
of the White House
703
00:35:52,553 --> 00:35:57,057
by Robert Kennedy Jr.
for insulting Jackie's mother
704
00:35:57,057 --> 00:35:59,727
Mrs. Hugh D. Auchincloss.
705
00:35:59,727 --> 00:36:02,196
And then he had the nerve
to touch Jackie
706
00:36:02,196 --> 00:36:06,333
violently and inappropriately
on the right shoulder.
707
00:36:06,333 --> 00:36:07,601
He was drunk.
708
00:36:07,601 --> 00:36:09,303
[Rick]
A man should never touch a girl.
709
00:36:09,303 --> 00:36:10,437
Like, never do that.
710
00:36:10,437 --> 00:36:12,640
But Gore denies all this,
you see,
711
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:14,608
and Lee is Jackie's sister.
712
00:36:14,608 --> 00:36:17,278
And she's going to confirm
that what I said
713
00:36:17,278 --> 00:36:19,280
is utterly true.
714
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:23,050
Oh, just apologize to Gore
and it all goes away.
715
00:36:23,050 --> 00:36:24,385
Really, do you,
do you actually want to be mired
716
00:36:24,385 --> 00:36:27,488
in a lawsuit with him?
717
00:36:27,488 --> 00:36:29,290
Just be friends, Truman.
718
00:36:29,290 --> 00:36:31,324
Friends?
719
00:36:33,093 --> 00:36:36,564
No, I do feel sad for Gore.
720
00:36:36,564 --> 00:36:39,667
Very sad that he has
to breathe every day.
721
00:36:39,667 --> 00:36:41,435
[chuckles]
722
00:36:41,435 --> 00:36:44,638
Never back down
when a pretentious toady
723
00:36:44,638 --> 00:36:46,674
spits Freon at you,
dear heart,
724
00:36:46,674 --> 00:36:49,510
or they'll just keep doing it.
[chuckles]
725
00:36:49,510 --> 00:36:53,380
The wit and wisdom
of Truman Capote, part ten.
726
00:37:02,656 --> 00:37:04,658
[Truman]
I never met a man who has
727
00:37:04,658 --> 00:37:09,630
a natural aroma like you have.
728
00:37:09,630 --> 00:37:13,167
You smell like some sort of
hazelnut patchouli
729
00:37:13,167 --> 00:37:15,803
lemon desert sage.
730
00:37:15,803 --> 00:37:19,406
It oozes out of every pore.
731
00:37:19,406 --> 00:37:22,209
Come on, Truman,
that's ticklish.
732
00:37:22,209 --> 00:37:26,280
I know, but I've been looking
forward to you loosening me up.
733
00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:28,549
This Gore stuff.
734
00:37:28,549 --> 00:37:30,251
I thought you'd like to do me
735
00:37:30,251 --> 00:37:32,286
like in that porno I showed you,
736
00:37:32,286 --> 00:37:33,754
Boys in the Sand.
737
00:37:33,754 --> 00:37:36,156
Oh, I do, but I'm tired.
738
00:37:36,156 --> 00:37:39,760
All that shopping and
that fancy French restaurant.
739
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:42,696
- Come on.
- What do you mean?
740
00:37:42,696 --> 00:37:45,733
Come on. I mean, I have
certain needs, you know.
741
00:37:45,733 --> 00:37:48,636
Now we're like an old pair
of shoes together
742
00:37:48,636 --> 00:37:50,137
after one month.
743
00:37:50,137 --> 00:37:52,106
Look, your friend Andy's
on Love Boat.
744
00:37:52,106 --> 00:37:54,375
[Truman]
Ooh, look at him.
745
00:37:54,375 --> 00:37:56,644
Oh, my God, it's a horror show.
746
00:37:56,644 --> 00:38:02,182
They put embalming fluid
in his foundation, didn't they?
747
00:38:02,182 --> 00:38:04,251
[laughs]
748
00:38:06,486 --> 00:38:09,590
Well, I should be on this.
749
00:38:09,590 --> 00:38:11,559
They'd love to have me,
wouldn't they?
750
00:38:11,559 --> 00:38:13,627
Don't you think,
if Andy's doing it?
751
00:38:13,627 --> 00:38:15,462
Yeah.
752
00:38:18,665 --> 00:38:21,235
Look at my skin.
753
00:38:21,235 --> 00:38:24,605
It's all vines,
like a map of the Nile.
754
00:38:24,605 --> 00:38:28,642
And yours is plump
and fresh as a newborn's.
755
00:38:31,345 --> 00:38:35,182
It's all the vodka.
Sucks out the moisture
756
00:38:35,182 --> 00:38:39,720
till you're as dry as
an old smoked kipper.
757
00:38:39,720 --> 00:38:41,288
Shh!
758
00:38:41,288 --> 00:38:44,792
Watch the show.
It's so good.
759
00:38:44,792 --> 00:38:46,527
Look, you want to,
760
00:38:46,527 --> 00:38:49,697
want me to let you blow me
during the commercials?
761
00:38:49,697 --> 00:38:53,234
Yeah? Fantasy Island's
on next.
762
00:38:53,234 --> 00:38:55,468
Okay?
763
00:38:59,439 --> 00:39:01,508
[Rick sighs]
764
00:39:08,315 --> 00:39:11,051
Well, it's finally happened.
765
00:39:12,519 --> 00:39:14,454
What's happened?
766
00:39:16,490 --> 00:39:19,059
I've gone out of style.
767
00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:31,831
Truman, the fact is,
Gore Vidal has
768
00:39:31,831 --> 00:39:33,366
a good case for defamation.
769
00:39:33,366 --> 00:39:36,970
And Lee Radziwill is not
returning my calls.
770
00:39:36,970 --> 00:39:38,304
Lee's not calling you back?
771
00:39:38,304 --> 00:39:40,040
But aren't you
her attorney, too?
772
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:42,108
I handled the divorce, yeah,
773
00:39:42,108 --> 00:39:44,377
but lawsuits make people
squeamish.
774
00:39:44,377 --> 00:39:46,179
They behave like
you're contagious,
775
00:39:46,179 --> 00:39:48,014
as though it's a leprosy.
776
00:39:48,014 --> 00:39:51,017
I'll write a draft
of an apology for you...
777
00:39:51,017 --> 00:39:53,086
No, no apologies. No!
778
00:39:53,086 --> 00:39:56,222
No. If you don't mind,
I'm calling C.Z. Guest.
779
00:39:56,222 --> 00:39:57,991
I'm fed up.
780
00:39:57,991 --> 00:40:00,093
Secrets.
781
00:40:00,093 --> 00:40:02,495
These women and their secrets.
782
00:40:02,495 --> 00:40:04,097
[line ringing]
783
00:40:04,097 --> 00:40:05,365
[C.Z.]
Hello?
784
00:40:05,365 --> 00:40:07,967
Dear heart,
it's Uncle Truman here.
785
00:40:07,967 --> 00:40:10,537
Look, I really need
to ask you something.
786
00:40:10,537 --> 00:40:12,105
Well, make it quick, Uncle.
787
00:40:12,105 --> 00:40:13,373
Cornelia and I are making
samosas
788
00:40:13,373 --> 00:40:15,442
for her show and tell at school.
789
00:40:15,442 --> 00:40:19,312
Look, why is Lee doing
everything she can
790
00:40:19,312 --> 00:40:22,115
not to help me with this
wretched Gore situation?
791
00:40:22,115 --> 00:40:23,983
Oh, God, Truman,
do I have to be dragged
792
00:40:23,983 --> 00:40:25,318
into the middle of this?
793
00:40:25,318 --> 00:40:27,220
Cornelia, that's enough
cumin, darling.
794
00:40:27,220 --> 00:40:29,823
No, you know and you're
not telling me.
795
00:40:29,823 --> 00:40:33,293
Truman, okay, here's what it is.
796
00:40:33,293 --> 00:40:35,061
She's not going to help you.
797
00:40:36,062 --> 00:40:38,164
She's not?
798
00:40:38,164 --> 00:40:40,967
She made a nasty remark.
799
00:40:40,967 --> 00:40:43,036
Well, what did Lee say?
800
00:40:43,036 --> 00:40:45,872
They are two fags.
801
00:40:45,872 --> 00:40:48,174
It's the most disgusting...
802
00:40:48,174 --> 00:40:50,176
I'm-I'm not getting
involved anyway.
803
00:40:50,176 --> 00:40:51,911
[chuckles]
804
00:40:51,911 --> 00:40:54,147
It's that side of her
that's just savage.
805
00:40:54,147 --> 00:40:55,915
I suppose
I should have told you,
806
00:40:55,915 --> 00:40:58,018
but it was too ugly,
and I thought
807
00:40:58,018 --> 00:41:00,020
you'd have settled it
with Gore by now.
808
00:41:00,020 --> 00:41:03,256
Lee said that?
809
00:41:03,256 --> 00:41:05,291
Well, I hope someone's
telling her
810
00:41:05,291 --> 00:41:07,827
that her new love interest
Mr. Herbert Ross
811
00:41:07,827 --> 00:41:10,096
has sucked more cocks
than a deckhand
812
00:41:10,096 --> 00:41:12,232
on the Fire Island Ferry
come August.
813
00:41:12,232 --> 00:41:14,901
I have to go.
Just apologize to Gore
814
00:41:14,901 --> 00:41:17,269
and move on.
815
00:41:19,605 --> 00:41:22,808
Now that's a kick
in the rubber parts, Burt.
816
00:41:24,277 --> 00:41:25,845
Lee.
817
00:41:26,646 --> 00:41:29,382
I'm afraid she's just had
too much pain in her life
818
00:41:29,382 --> 00:41:31,851
to help a friend now.
819
00:41:31,851 --> 00:41:36,489
Truman, apologize to
Gore Vidal for God's sake.
820
00:41:36,489 --> 00:41:38,358
All this stress is killing you.
821
00:41:38,358 --> 00:41:40,393
You need to finish the book.
822
00:41:40,393 --> 00:41:43,963
I can't keep defending you
to Random House.
823
00:41:43,963 --> 00:41:47,133
Go down to my house in Boca,
dry out,
824
00:41:47,133 --> 00:41:48,835
and finish Answered Prayers.
825
00:41:48,835 --> 00:41:52,872
Enough with the dramas, please.
826
00:41:52,872 --> 00:41:54,974
Aren't you tired?
827
00:41:54,974 --> 00:41:56,976
Aren't I tired?
828
00:41:58,277 --> 00:42:02,548
Exhausted, Burt.
Simply exhausted.
829
00:42:05,051 --> 00:42:07,387
But if everyone's
turning against me,
830
00:42:07,387 --> 00:42:10,523
when do I dare sleep?
831
00:42:13,126 --> 00:42:14,561
And it's happened before,
832
00:42:14,561 --> 00:42:16,496
this thing they do,
this shaming.
833
00:42:16,496 --> 00:42:18,865
This use of the word "fag."
834
00:42:18,865 --> 00:42:21,101
I don't know why.
835
00:42:21,101 --> 00:42:22,969
Is this what all women do
behind the backs
836
00:42:22,969 --> 00:42:24,537
- of their gay friends?
- Oh, Truman.
837
00:42:24,537 --> 00:42:27,273
You are talking
about Lee Radziwill,
838
00:42:27,273 --> 00:42:30,510
perhaps the unhappiest,
most covetous famous sister
839
00:42:30,510 --> 00:42:32,312
in New York, if not America.
840
00:42:32,312 --> 00:42:33,980
And Ann Woodward,
841
00:42:33,980 --> 00:42:35,515
a self-murdering killer,
for God's sake.
842
00:42:35,515 --> 00:42:38,284
This is not exactly
a representative demographic.
843
00:42:38,284 --> 00:42:41,521
No, I think
it's pervasive, Jack.
844
00:42:41,521 --> 00:42:44,491
It's contempt,
and we just live with it.
845
00:42:44,491 --> 00:42:47,560
Humming in the background.
846
00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:51,831
Gay men have always had these
particular kind of women friends
847
00:42:51,831 --> 00:42:53,833
who all have their odd,
arid marriages
848
00:42:53,833 --> 00:42:55,969
and their little affairs.
849
00:42:55,969 --> 00:42:59,572
- And we're sort of Pomeranians
to them, aren't we?
- [laughs]
850
00:42:59,572 --> 00:43:03,376
There to cuddle when they need
something fluffy to hold onto.
851
00:43:03,376 --> 00:43:06,846
But should we growl
or show our teeth,
852
00:43:06,846 --> 00:43:09,582
- then it's off
to the pound we go.
- Yes.
853
00:43:09,582 --> 00:43:12,886
Let me explain something to you,
and perhaps you'll hear it.
854
00:43:12,886 --> 00:43:14,521
Whatever force
that hypnotized you
855
00:43:14,521 --> 00:43:16,523
about your fucking swans was...
856
00:43:16,523 --> 00:43:20,493
It's a distortion, Truman.
This is, this is a mirage.
857
00:43:20,493 --> 00:43:23,430
These are entrapped lost souls,
858
00:43:23,430 --> 00:43:25,865
these ladies of Manhattan
that you've collected,
859
00:43:25,865 --> 00:43:29,201
and you're so much better
now that the spell is broken.
860
00:43:30,870 --> 00:43:35,108
I don't think that you actually
realize that you wrote
861
00:43:35,108 --> 00:43:38,010
"La Cote Basque" in order
to free yourself of them.
862
00:43:39,045 --> 00:43:41,314
So what now, what?
You're scared?
863
