[00:20.961] |
ARTIE: Hey, Gillis! We'd give you up. |
[00:25.814] |
Let me take your coat |
[00:27.114] |
Jesus, Joe, what's this made of? Mink? |
[00:30.934] |
Who did you borrow this from? Adolphe Menjou? |
[00:35.138] |
JOE: Close, but no cigar. Hey! It's quite a crowd |
[00:37.517] |
ARTIE: I invited all the kids doing walk-ons in "Samson and Delilah". |
[00:40.999] |
BETTY: Where have you been hiding? I called your apartment. |
[00:43.960] |
I called your ex-agent. I was about to call the Bureau of Missing Persons. |
[00:47.756] |
JOE: Well, they always know where to find me. |
[00:50.473] |
RICHARD A: You gotta say your New Year's resolution out loud Jean! |
[00:56.360] |
JEAN: By this time next year |
[00:58.553] |
I'll have landed a juicy part |
[01:01.652] |
STEVE: Nineteen fifty will be my start |
[01:04.997] |
RICHARD T: No more carrying spears |
[01:07.782] |
MARY: I'll be discovered |
[01:11.160] |
My life won't ever be the same |
[01:14.133] |
Billy Wilder will know my name |
[01:17.175] |
And he'll call all the time |
[01:20.332] |
KATHERINE: 'Til he does, can one of you guys lend her a dime? |
[01:22.735] |
ALISA: Just an apartment |
[01:26.753] |
With no roaches and no dry rot |
[01:29.818] |
ANITA: Where the hot water comes out hot |
[01:32.419] |
BOTH: That's my Hollywood dream |
[01:36.458] |
RICHARD A: Your resolution |
[01:39.059] |
JOANNA: Is to write something that gets shot |
[01:42.099] |
With approximately the plot |
[01:45.212] |
I first had in my head |
[01:48.299] |
MYRON: But you'll get rewritten even after you're dead |
[01:52.096] |
RICHARD A: Artie! |
[01:53.535] |
ARTIE: It's the year to begin a new life |
[01:56.497] |
Buy a place somewhere quiet, somewhere pretty |
[01:59.434] |
When you have a young kid and a wife |
[02:02.231] |
Then you need somewhere green, far from the city |
[02:05.539] |
It's a rambling old house with a big apple tree |
[02:08.778] |
With a swing for the kid and a hammock for me |
[02:12.157] |
SAMMY: Behold, my children |
[02:15.490] |
It is I, Cecil B. DeMille |
[02:18.472] |
Meeting me must be quite a thrill |
[02:21.259] |
ADAM: But there's no need to kneel |
[02:24.277] |
SAMMY: I guarantee you |
[02:27.876] |
Every girl in my chorus line |
[02:30.790] |
Is a genuine Philistine |
[02:34.157] |
SANDY: They don't come off the shelf |
[02:37.268] |
SAMMY: I flew every one in from Philistia myself |
[02:52.538] |
BETTY: I have some good news |
[02:56.880] |
It's "Blind Windows" |
[02:59.097] |
JOE: You don't let go |
[03:00.676] |
BETTY: I gave Sheldrake an outline, Joe |
[03:03.172] |
And he swallowed the bait |
[03:06.492] |
JOE: Well, hallelujah! |
[03:09.755] |
BETTY: While you've been buying vicuna coats |
[03:12.796] |
I've been making a lot of notes |
[03:15.652] |
Now there's work we should do... |
[03:18.856] |
JOE: Betty, you're forgetting that I gave it to you |
[03:23.455] |
You remind me of me long ago |
[03:25.938] |
Off the bus, full of ignorant ambition |
[03:29.492] |
Thought I'd waltz into some studio |
[03:32.056] |
And achieve overnight recognition |
[03:34.610] |
I've seen too many optimists sinking like stones |
[03:38.151] |
Felt them suck all the marrow clean out of my bones |
[03:44.756] |
BETTY: I love "Blind Windows" |
[03:47.438] |
But I can't write it on my own |
[03:49.818] |
Can't we speak on the telephone? |
[03:52.756] |
All my evenings are free |
[03:56.495] |
ARTIE: Hey, just a minute |
[03:58.933] |
I'm the fellow who bought the ring |
[04:02.090] |
BETTY: Artie, this is a business thing |
[04:05.235] |
It's important to me |
[04:08.475] |
You'll be on location in Clinch, Tennessee |
[04:12.898] |
Please make this your New Year's resolution for me |
[04:20.096] |
ALL: By this time next year |
[04:23.137] |
I will get my foot in the door |
[04:25.831] |
Next year I know I'm going to score |
[04:28.989] |
An amazing success |
[04:32.310] |
Cut to the moment |
[04:35.095] |
When they open the envelope |
[04:38.334] |
Pass the statuette to Bob Hope |
[04:41.377] |
And it's my name you hear |
[04:44.895] |
We'll be down on our knees |
[04:47.935] |
Outside Grauman's Chinese |
[04:51.186] |
Palm prints there on the street |
[04:54.275] |
Immortality's neat! |
[04:57.153] |
This time next year |
[05:00.334] |
This time next year |
[05:04.596] |
We'll have nothing to fear |
[05:07.347] |
Contracts all signed |
[05:09.552] |
Three-picture deal |
[05:12.931] |
Yellow brick road career |
[05:18.086] |
Hope we're not still saying these things |
[05:21.731] |
This time next year |
[05:36.303] |
JOE: You know, I think I will be available in the New Year. |
[05:40.703] |
In fact, I'm available right now. |
[05:42.260] |
BETTY: Joe, that's great! |
[05:43.456] |
JOE: Hey, Artie, where's your phone? |
[05:44.836] |
ARTIE: Under the bar. |
[05:47.590] |
JOE: Hey, Artie. You think you could put me up for a couple of weeks? |
[05:51.805] |
ARTIE: It just so happens we've got a vacancy on the couch. |
[05:55.554] |
JOE: I'll take it. |
[06:05.855] |
MAX: Yes? |
[06:08.491] |
JOE: Max, it's Mr. Gillis. I want you to do me a favour. |
[06:10.789] |
MAX: I'm sorry, Mr. Gillis. I can't talk right now. |
[06:12.531] |
JOE: Listen, I want you to take my old suitcases... |
[06:14.097] |
MAX: I'm sorry, I am attending to Madame. |
[06:16.536] |
JOE: What do you mean? |
[06:18.277] |
MAX: Madame found the razor in your room. And she's cut her wrists. |
[06:23.850] |
ALL: Three, two, one, Happy New Year! |
[06:30.154] |
Should auld acquiantance be forgot |
[06:33.996] |
And never brought to mind |
[06:38.048] |
Should auld acquiantance be forgot |
[06:42.379] |
And days of auld lang syne |
[06:46.953] |
For auld lang syne, my dear |
[06:51.097] |
For auld lang syne |
