I love money. |
00:00:42 |
I love money more than I love |
00:00:47 |
Does that surprise you? |
00:00:50 |
Money. It don't care whether |
00:00:53 |
It don't care whether I snore or not. |
00:00:56 |
It don't care which god I pray to. |
00:00:59 |
There are only three things in this world |
00:01:05 |
Dogs... |
00:01:07 |
...doughnuts... |
00:01:08 |
...and money. |
00:01:10 |
Only money is better. |
00:01:12 |
You know why? |
00:01:14 |
Because it don't make you fat... |
00:01:16 |
...and it don't poop all over |
00:01:20 |
There's only one thing I like better: |
00:01:25 |
Other people's money. |
00:01:50 |
Hey, guys. |
00:01:52 |
Come on. |
00:02:21 |
All right. Now, squeeze in over here. |
00:02:23 |
That's it. I've got to see all your faces. |
00:02:31 |
- How you doing, Tom? |
00:02:34 |
Happy Thanksgiving, everybody! |
00:02:40 |
- Happy Thanksgiving. |
00:02:42 |
Take a good one, Elton. |
00:02:59 |
Somebody's up to something, Jorgy. |
00:03:01 |
Good news. Stock is up. |
00:03:04 |
- Gus, you got your teeth in? |
00:03:08 |
Cheeks up! |
00:03:09 |

- Morning, Mr. Garfield. |
00:03:51 |
Say good morning to Carmen. She's |
00:03:55 |
Good morning, Carmen. |
00:03:57 |
- Cranberry juice is fresh today, boss. |
00:04:01 |
You never let me down, Arthur. |
00:04:04 |
You never let me down. |
00:04:38 |
- Good morning, sir. |
00:04:42 |
- Good morning, Mr. Garfield. |
00:04:46 |
- Good morning, Mr. Garfield. |
00:04:49 |
- Good morning. |
00:04:51 |
- Good morning, Mr. Garfield. |
00:04:53 |
- Morning. |
00:04:57 |
Work, work! |
00:05:03 |
- Good morning, Mr. Garfield. |
00:05:07 |
- Good morning, Mr. Garfield. |
00:05:08 |
Good morning, Mr. Garfield. |
00:05:11 |
I'm not paying you to be polite, Harriet. |
00:05:14 |
- Good morning, Mr. Garfield. |
00:05:18 |
Morning. Morning. |
00:05:20 |
Mr. Holt wants to see you for dinner... |
00:05:22 |
...and the Overly brothers will fly you |
00:05:26 |
When I die, put it on my gravestone: |
00:05:28 |
- "He never went to Texas." |
00:05:32 |
- Where's the cinnamon? |
00:05:34 |
If I can't count on Dunkin' Donuts... |
00:05:36 |
...who do I count on? |
00:05:39 |
Granger, Trundel Canning. Tell me. |
00:05:42 |
Trundel is being sued |
00:05:44 |
Failed to comply |
00:05:48 |
And there are claims of illness |
00:05:51 |
Good. |
00:05:54 |
Just before they're carted off to jail, |
00:05:56 |
- Yes, sir. |
00:05:58 |
- Yo. |
00:06:02 |
Six million, Mr. Garfield. |
00:06:05 |
Mr. Morganstern wants to talk to you. |
00:06:08 |
I'd rather talk to my mother. |
00:06:10 |
- Pfeiffer! |
00:06:12 |
What about this |
00:06:14 |
It's too beautiful. |
00:06:17 |
I... |
00:06:20 |
I... |
00:06:22 |
I... |
00:06:24 |
I... |
00:06:26 |
...can't seem to find any problems, |
00:06:32 |
Neither can I. |
00:06:34 |
- Richardson. |
00:06:36 |
Let's talk to these people. |
00:06:37 |
Call the man in charge, |
00:06:39 |
Yes, sir. We'll get right on it. |
00:06:48 |
New England Wire and Cable. |
00:06:50 |
The general manager, please, |
00:06:52 |
That would be Mr. Coles. |
00:06:54 |
- Who shall I say is calling? |
00:06:56 |
Just one moment, please. |
00:06:59 |
- What did he want? |
00:07:03 |
Look the place over, he said. |
00:07:04 |
Well, what's wrong with that? |
00:07:07 |
Well, it's not that simple. |
00:07:09 |
What this man does is no secret. |
00:07:11 |
Bill, you got the jitters. |
00:07:14 |
Wall Street's in the liquidation business |
00:07:18 |
My father founded this company |
00:07:21 |
- I took over 28 years ago... |
00:07:23 |
I control this company, |
00:08:00 |
What a shit pit. |
00:08:13 |
Look at this. |
00:08:16 |
Look at this. |
00:08:20 |
I haven't seen a place this classy |
00:08:56 |
Welcome to New England Wire and Cable. |
00:08:59 |
I'm Bea Sullivan, Mr. Jorgenson's assistant. |
00:09:02 |
- How do you do? |
00:09:04 |
Would you like to invite your chauffeur in |
00:09:06 |
No, no. He's a yard chauffeur, honey. |
00:09:09 |
Bring him inside, you spoil him. |
00:09:12 |
Is there a Dunkin' Donuts in this town? |
00:09:14 |
Dunkin' Donuts? No, I don't think so. |
00:09:17 |
- Krispy Kreme, something? |
00:09:20 |
But we have coffee, |
00:09:24 |
Breakfast roll? |
00:09:26 |
Do you have an elevator? |
00:09:27 |
I'm embarrassed to tell you, |
00:09:31 |
Any oxygen? |
00:09:37 |
You should have warned me. |
00:09:40 |
Is it much further? |
00:09:44 |
Jorgy, this is Mr. Garfield. |
00:09:47 |
Mr. Garfield, Andrew Jorgenson, |
00:09:50 |
Call me Jorgy. Everybody else does. |
00:09:53 |
- It has a mind of its own. |
00:09:57 |
- Emma, bring in the coffee! |
00:09:59 |
Last limousine we saw here |
00:10:01 |
...when Truman was running for president. |
00:10:04 |
He stood right out there on those stairs, |
00:10:07 |
- Is that so? |
00:10:09 |
That was the golden age. |
00:10:12 |
Old Harry made a great speech that day. |
00:10:15 |
- Is that so? |
00:10:19 |
He's the only Democrat |
00:10:21 |
Do you know much about |
00:10:25 |
I know if the cable's out of whack, |
00:10:29 |
- I'm thinking about the doughnuts. |
00:10:32 |
Mr. Garfield was wondering if we had any. |
00:10:35 |
- Bill, do we have doughnuts? |
00:10:38 |
How's that coffee coming along? |
00:10:41 |
- Here we are, Mr. Garfield. |
00:10:45 |
- Sugar and cream? |
00:10:48 |
- Thank you, Emma. |
00:10:50 |
No, no. Why don't we get down |
00:10:55 |
What's the matter? |
00:10:58 |
- Would you like me to get some doughnuts? |
00:11:05 |
You're right. |
00:11:07 |
- Let's talk business. |
00:11:09 |
What business are we talking about? |
00:11:13 |
Good coffee. |
00:11:15 |
Well, let's put it this way: |
00:11:17 |
Back in New York, I got a computer. |
00:11:20 |
Every morning, right after I brush my teeth, |
00:11:24 |
"Carmen, computer on the wall, |
00:11:29 |
Now, most mornings, she spits out, |
00:11:34 |
But three weeks ago, she said: |
00:11:38 |
"Garfield, Garfield, scratch your balls. |
00:11:43 |
New England..." Pardon me. "New England |
00:11:50 |
New England Wire and Cable? |
00:11:52 |
I said, "What's it worth?" |
00:11:58 |
You got equipment here |
00:12:02 |
Even at salvage, |
00:12:06 |
- Can I use that blackboard over there? |
00:12:09 |
Thank you. |
00:12:10 |
Come with me. |
00:12:15 |
Gonna erase this stuff here. |
00:12:18 |
Here. |
00:12:20 |
Let's put down 3O million. |
00:12:27 |
- How many acres you got? |
00:12:29 |
Carmen and I figure, |
00:12:33 |
...it's worth 1 O million. |
00:12:34 |
- Is that fair? |
00:12:36 |
Let's lay the 1 O under the 3O. |
00:12:40 |
You bought some other companies, |
00:12:43 |
You have a plumbing, an electrical |
00:12:47 |
Boring, but all making a decent profit. |
00:12:50 |
Carmen says they're worth |
00:12:52 |
Let's put the 8O under the 4O. |
00:12:54 |
And you have working capital of 25 million, |
00:12:59 |
Let's put down 25 million, |
00:13:03 |
$ 1 25 million. |
00:13:08 |
The only bad news is... |
00:13:10 |
...that this wire and cable division |
00:13:14 |
...and all the other divisions |
00:13:17 |
Now, as a stockholder, |
00:13:20 |
Are you finished, Mr. Garfield? |
00:13:22 |
No, I'm not, Bill. |
00:13:23 |
Let's say Carmen was suffering |
00:13:26 |
No offense. A little nuts. |
00:13:28 |
Let's say she was too optimistic. |
00:13:30 |
Let's knock off 25 million. |
00:13:33 |
Let's make it... |
00:13:35 |
...$ 1 OO million. |
00:13:37 |
A nice round number. |
00:13:41 |
Any debt? No. |
00:13:43 |
Any lawsuits? |
00:13:45 |
You throwing your garbage in the water? |
00:13:49 |
What about pension liabilities? |
00:13:50 |
Carmen says you're fully funded. |
00:13:53 |
You people are dreams. |
00:13:55 |
- I think this meeting is over. |
00:13:58 |
Here comes the fun part. |
00:13:59 |
- How many shares outstanding you got? |
00:14:02 |
Divide 4 million into 1 OO million, |
00:14:04 |
- Twenty-five. |
00:14:06 |
That means each share is worth $ 25. |
00:14:09 |
But that was all foreplay. |
00:14:14 |
The stock was 1 O when I woke up |
00:14:19 |
That's a 1 O for a $ 25 item. |
00:14:22 |
What a sale. |
00:14:24 |
Something worth $ 25, |
00:14:27 |
The company's not for sale, |
00:14:30 |
I don't want your company, Jorgy. |
00:14:32 |
I just want what |
00:14:34 |
- I wanna make money. |
00:14:37 |
You bought the stock at 1 O. |
00:14:40 |
The stock is 14 because I'm buying it. |
00:14:43 |
I'm doing my part. Now you do yours. |
00:14:46 |
Get rid of this wire and cable division. |
00:14:50 |
Would you excuse us, please? |
00:14:59 |
What the hell do you think you're doing, |
00:15:02 |
You can't come into my town, my plant, |
00:15:06 |
- You can't do that. |
00:15:10 |
It's called a corporate takeover. |
00:15:11 |
I know what it's called, |
00:15:14 |
It's simple. I do it all the time. |
00:15:17 |
Well, do it someplace else. |
00:15:20 |
Don't think of it as suicide. |
00:15:24 |
Think of it as euthanasia. |
00:15:27 |
Get out. |
00:15:29 |
Get out. |
00:15:31 |
Get out before I throw you out. |
00:15:33 |
Where are you going? |
00:15:36 |
Business? With you? |
00:15:39 |
I got a company to run. |
00:15:41 |
Yeah, well, that's my point. |
00:15:43 |
I don't like the way my company's |
00:15:45 |
And you better get your elevator fixed! |
00:15:47 |
There's a goddamn fire raging here, |
00:15:52 |
And you call the fire department, |
00:15:56 |
Because they're all in Japan |
00:16:00 |
...and Taiwan and every other shithole |
00:16:04 |
And while that inferno is raging, |
00:16:08 |
...mowing the lawn, tidying up, |
00:16:16 |
- You'd think I was asking him for a loan. |
00:16:21 |
I'm not a long-term player. |
00:16:39 |
They give us trouble today? |
00:16:41 |
They're not gonna send us back |
00:16:44 |
Don't scare me there, Mr. G. |
00:16:46 |
Richardson, I wanna buy up |
00:16:49 |
Buy everything you can. |
00:16:51 |
File a goddamned 1 3D. |
00:16:52 |
- I wanna finish this one quick. |
00:17:10 |
Well, it's official. |
00:17:11 |
Our friend Garfield's intent |
00:17:14 |
He's filed his 1 3D with the SEC. |
00:17:17 |
He now owns 1 2 percent of us. |
00:17:24 |
What do you wanna do? |
00:17:28 |
I own 2O percent. |
00:17:30 |
Jorgy, we've got to protect ourselves. |
00:17:32 |
- We need legal advice. |
00:17:34 |
They're not equipped for this. |
00:17:36 |
- We need the best. |
00:17:39 |
Let me. |
00:17:42 |
What makes you think she'll come? |
00:17:44 |
I'll tell her we need her. |
00:17:47 |
We're family. |
00:18:41 |
Flamboyant L's and M's. |
00:18:45 |
Loves to write "million," doesn't he? |
00:18:48 |
We've never seen a man like that. |
00:18:50 |
He's like something out of a comic book. |
00:18:53 |
So they say. |
00:18:54 |
- Hello, Kate. |
00:18:57 |
Thanks for coming. |
00:18:59 |
Doesn't she look splendid? |
00:19:01 |
I have to be back in the city by 5. |
00:19:05 |
You're in charge, Kate. |
00:19:08 |
Given that someone is interested |
00:19:10 |
...you've no choice |
00:19:13 |
You have some options. |
00:19:14 |
For openers, I recommend changing |
00:19:17 |
...from Rhode Island to Delaware. |
00:19:20 |
That's a good idea. |
00:19:24 |
And that way we're not playing dead. |
00:19:27 |
- Who the hell is playing dead? |
00:19:30 |
- By running away to Delaware? |
00:19:34 |
This company was founded in Rhode Island. |
00:19:38 |
I'm talking about Delaware, not Nairobi. |
00:19:42 |
I own 2O percent of this company. |
00:19:44 |
The board owns another 5, |
00:19:48 |
That's 3O percent. |
00:19:52 |
What do you want? Do you want me |
00:19:55 |
But there's no deal to be made. |
00:19:57 |
He's knocking at your door. |
00:19:59 |
If you don't answer it, |
00:20:02 |
Listen to her, Jorgy. |
00:20:03 |
There's no deal to be made |
00:20:06 |
You kill it, or it kills you. |
00:20:09 |
Well, what do you suggest? |
00:20:11 |
Make it worth his while to leave. |
00:20:13 |
How? How? What do you mean? |
00:20:14 |
Pay him off. |
00:20:17 |
It's greenmail, Jorgy, |
00:20:20 |
- It's terrorism, and I won't do it! |
00:20:23 |
Well, you're gonna lose your company. |
00:20:25 |
Like hell I am. |
00:20:27 |
You, as they say in the street, |
00:20:31 |
Garfield put you there. |
00:20:34 |
And now I'm here as your lawyer. |
00:20:37 |
Isn't that a hell of an irony? |
00:20:39 |
Me trying to save your company. |
00:20:43 |
Well, I can do it. |
00:20:57 |
Yeah? |
00:20:59 |
A Miss Sullivan |
00:21:01 |
And Granger wants to see you |
00:21:03 |
Your suits are ready for a fitting, |
00:21:06 |
Yeah, 5:OO is okay. But tell them not to |
00:21:11 |
- Right, no pins, |
00:21:13 |
...he better make more sense than last time, |
00:21:17 |
Shall I use those exact words, sir? |
00:21:19 |
Send in Hudson, Bradley and Flint. |
00:21:39 |
Wow. |
00:21:43 |
You know what kills me? I've done |
00:21:47 |
...and you know who I negotiate with? |
00:21:49 |
Skinny little joggers with contact lenses, |
00:21:53 |
- I'm Kate Sullivan. |
00:21:54 |
- Want a cigarette? |
00:21:57 |
Don't let me stop you. |
00:22:00 |
Why would you stop me? |
00:22:03 |
What are you, a fucking lawyer? |
00:22:05 |
Depends on who I'm with. |
00:22:08 |
Welcome to my life. |
00:22:10 |
So, what's it gonna be? |
00:22:11 |
Sue, settle, defend? |
00:22:14 |
I came to talk. |
00:22:17 |
Oh, that's trouble. |
00:22:19 |
Lawyers wanna talk, |
00:22:22 |
- How about a doughnut? |
00:22:26 |
- Why, are you a health-food freak? |
00:22:29 |
- You have to be hungry to eat a doughnut? |
00:22:32 |
What, are you shitting me? |
00:22:33 |
I never heard of such a thing, |
00:22:36 |
Why? It don't taste better that way. |
00:22:38 |
- How would you know? |
00:22:41 |
- I need a month. |
00:22:44 |
I just got involved. I need time to get |
00:22:48 |
My act is together. |
00:22:50 |
If you give me some time, |
00:22:55 |
Settle? |
00:22:57 |
Work something out. |
00:22:59 |
- I only settle when I'm in trouble. |
00:23:03 |
It only makes sense when I'm in trouble. |
00:23:06 |
Well, if you prefer, we'll go to court. |
00:23:08 |
Get an injunction, have a fight. |
00:23:12 |
Costs them, costs you, and for what? |
00:23:15 |
I live in court. |
00:23:22 |
I won't love you anymore. |
00:23:27 |
- Two weeks. |
00:23:31 |
- Both sides. |
00:23:33 |
- Two weeks. |
00:23:35 |
Whoa, where are you going? |
00:23:37 |
We haven't talked about |
00:23:39 |
- What's that? |
00:23:46 |
Garfield, put your hand between your legs. |
00:23:51 |
Do it! |
00:23:54 |
Good. Now look directly down |
00:23:57 |
...and you say, "You must behave yourself |
00:24:02 |
Garfield, if you don't say exactly that |
00:24:10 |
- You must behave yourself... |
00:24:14 |
...when you're in the presence... |
00:24:17 |
...of a lady. |
00:24:23 |
See? Not so hard. |
00:24:37 |
See you in two weeks. |
00:24:40 |
Wow! Did you see that, Carmen? |
00:24:44 |
I'm in love, I'm in love. |
00:24:46 |
- Goodbye, Miss Sullivan. |
00:25:04 |
Call Erickson. Tell him to arrange |
00:25:07 |
Don't pay more than we did |
00:25:10 |
Then call Hathaway. |
00:25:11 |
Tell him I want to make a tender offer |
00:25:15 |
Don't put it under our name. |
00:25:16 |
Label it OPM Holdings. |
00:25:18 |
But what if she finds out |
00:25:23 |
Richardson, what were you, |
00:25:25 |
What do you think she's doing? |
00:25:27 |
That kewpie doll's up to no good. |
00:25:30 |
I got us an extra two weeks. |
00:25:34 |
Get the board to buy up as many shares |
00:25:37 |
Use your own working capital. |
00:25:39 |
No, that's not what |
00:25:41 |
- That's our safety net, |
00:25:44 |
- No borrowing. |
00:25:47 |
For every share you acquire, |
00:25:51 |
The more we buy, the less for him. |
00:25:54 |
The more it costs, the less profit he makes. |
00:25:57 |
So get the stock up. |
00:25:59 |
And, Mom, make sure to buy it |
00:26:02 |
I don't wanna borrow money. |
00:26:06 |
But see, that's the trouble, Jorgy. |
00:26:08 |
It's your gorgeous balance sheet |
00:26:12 |
And, Mom, get letters out |
00:26:15 |
Tell them how great business is |
00:26:18 |
- I'll do it. |
00:26:20 |
I'll call you tomorrow. |
00:26:48 |
Good morning, honey. |
00:26:58 |
How you doing this morning, huh? |
00:27:08 |
You got it up again. |
00:27:11 |
Another point and a half. |
00:27:14 |
- Pfeiffer. |
00:27:16 |
- Woody. |
00:27:18 |
- Harriet. |
00:27:19 |
Miss Sullivan is gonna call |
00:27:21 |
You tell her I'm not taking calls. |
00:27:24 |
Then, when she comes over here |
00:27:27 |
...you try to keep her out. |
00:27:30 |
Don't worry, she's desperate but harmless. |
00:27:35 |
- Florist? |
00:27:41 |
You have a good evening, Miss Sullivan. |
00:27:46 |
- Hello, Michael. |
00:27:50 |
- Somebody brought these by for you. |
00:27:53 |
- Good night. |
00:28:46 |
- Good morning. |
00:28:53 |
- You ruthless son of a bitch! |
00:28:57 |
Jeez, I wonder what her problem is. |
00:29:18 |
All right, all right. |
00:29:26 |
Excuse me. |
00:29:27 |
- Hello, Miss Sullivan, may I help you? |
00:29:32 |
- I don't care! I'm not gonna... |
00:29:36 |
- You can't go in. |
00:29:40 |
- But, baby-poo... |
00:29:42 |
We had a standstill! |
00:29:45 |
- OPM Holdings? You know nothing about it? |
00:29:48 |
- Not a lot to know. |
00:29:51 |
You embarrassed me with my firm. |
00:29:55 |
Wait a minute. Wait a minute. |
00:29:57 |
Don't come on so holier-than-thou with me. |
00:29:59 |
What am I supposed to do, |
00:30:03 |
- I did no such thing. |
00:30:05 |
All that buying coming from some little |
00:30:10 |
You'd think you'd use an out-of-state firm. |
00:30:12 |
I know nothing about that. |
00:30:14 |
Give me a break. |
00:30:15 |
Who am I dealing with here, |
00:30:17 |
You want to play the game, |
00:30:20 |
Oh, is that what you call it, |
00:30:23 |
You're damn right. |
00:30:26 |
I'll teach you. It's easy. |
00:30:28 |
You make as much as you can |
00:30:31 |
And then what? |
00:30:32 |
"And then what?" |
00:30:34 |
Whoever has the most when he dies, |
00:30:36 |
Look. It's the American way. |
00:30:39 |
I'm doing my job. |
00:30:42 |
I'm a capitalist. |
00:30:43 |
I'm simply following |
00:30:46 |
What law is that? |
00:30:48 |
Survival of the fittest. |
00:30:51 |
Maybe some people don't see it that way. |
00:30:53 |
Maybe they don't see it |
00:30:55 |
- Maybe they see it as survival of the fattest! |
00:31:00 |
Because you're not nice. |
00:31:02 |
Since when do you have to be nice |
00:31:04 |
You're not right. |
00:31:06 |
One day we'll smarten up and pass some |
00:31:11 |
They can pass all the laws they want. |
00:31:14 |
All they can do is change the rules. |
00:31:16 |
They can never stop the game. |
00:31:19 |
I don't go away. I adapt. |
00:31:22 |
Ten years from now, they'll be studying |
00:31:25 |
They'll call it the Garfield Era... |
00:31:27 |
...and rinse their mouths out |
00:31:30 |
- I'll see you in court! |
00:31:32 |
Don't leave. |
00:31:34 |
- At least have a doughnut. |
00:31:37 |
Come on. Don't be a poor loser! |
00:31:39 |
Lying to protect your client |
00:31:43 |
You didn't even ask me |
00:31:46 |
Other people's money! |
00:31:54 |
All right, come on, come on! |
00:31:55 |
- Work, work, work! |
00:32:25 |
Gotcha! Oh, yes. |
00:32:30 |
How do you have them? |
00:32:33 |
Two years ago, he tried to take over |
00:32:36 |
He was put under indictment for failing |
00:32:40 |
- What's this? |
00:32:41 |
- What did they do? |
00:32:44 |
- Investors get hurt? |
00:32:46 |
If the charges were dropped, |
00:32:48 |
He was required to disclose. |
00:32:51 |
Gerber's in prison, Richard. |
00:32:52 |
Judge Pollard ain't gonna give you |
00:32:59 |
We are a nation of laws, Marcia. |
00:33:02 |
Ultimately, those laws come down |
00:33:05 |
Without those technicalities, |
00:33:08 |
Anarchy. |
00:33:09 |
Garfield. |
00:33:12 |
- Anarchy? That's the basis for your brief? |
00:33:16 |
Honeybunch, you better write |
00:33:19 |
- I intend to. |
00:33:22 |
Yeah. A court order. |
00:33:28 |
Do the Japanese celebrate Christmas? |
00:33:30 |
No, but I hear they're buying it. |
00:33:38 |
I had nothing to do with any of this. |
00:33:41 |
Pfeiffer comes walking in... |
00:33:49 |
TRO. |
00:33:51 |
Temporary restraining order. |
00:33:55 |
Thank you very much. |
00:34:04 |
Some crew I've got. |
00:34:08 |
Seventeen lawyers... |
00:34:10 |
...on retainer. |
00:34:12 |
And you manage to work it out... |
00:34:15 |
...so that in a free market... |
00:34:18 |
...a so-called free country... |
00:34:21 |
...I can't buy some shit-ass stock |
00:34:28 |
Congratulations. |
00:34:30 |
You're destroying the capitalist system. |
00:34:33 |
While everybody else |
00:34:36 |
...my boys and girls are fucking it up! |
00:34:40 |
You know what happens |
00:34:44 |
The communists come back. |
00:34:46 |
They come out of the bushes. |
00:34:48 |
They're waiting in there. |
00:34:52 |
But maybe that's not so bad. |
00:34:55 |
Because you know what happens |
00:34:58 |
The first thing they do |
00:35:03 |
And if they miss any of you, |
00:35:06 |
Now let's see if we can get |
00:35:09 |
...to change his fucking mind! |
00:35:11 |
Come on. |
00:35:17 |
It wasn't me! |
00:35:24 |
Mr, Garfield, |
00:35:28 |
- Yes. |
00:35:31 |
We're here in the office, |
00:35:35 |
Stop gloating. It doesn't become you. |
00:35:38 |
Don't be a poor loser, |
00:35:40 |
I got you on a technicality. Not bad |
00:35:45 |
I'd like to talk, |
00:35:46 |
I have no time for talk. My days are full. |
00:35:50 |
- I'll buy you a doughnut. |
00:35:52 |
Since when do you have to be hungry |
00:35:55 |
Shut up, |
00:35:57 |
Stop pouting. I'll buy you dinner. |
00:36:00 |
Name the place. |
00:36:04 |
You're trying to seduce me. |
00:36:08 |
You have a nice laugh. |
00:36:10 |
My house, 8: OO. |
00:36:12 |
How about Lutece? |
00:36:14 |
I wanna talk to somebody, |
00:36:17 |
You wanna talk, come to me, 8: OO. |
00:36:20 |
I'll come for 2O minutes. |
00:36:24 |
Twenty minutes, my place, 8:OO, |
00:36:27 |
- 5:3O |
00:36:29 |
- Funerals are at 5:3O. Seven. |
00:36:32 |
- I gotta wash my face. |
00:36:36 |
- Deal. |
00:36:38 |
Harriet! |
00:36:41 |
Get me my barber. |
00:36:43 |
Call Arthur. She's coming to the house. |
00:37:09 |
- Miss Sullivan. |
00:37:11 |
- Come on in. The boss is expecting you. |
00:37:37 |
- Mr. G will be right with you. |
00:38:36 |
Gloria Taylor. |
00:38:38 |
Quarterback's girlfriend. |
00:38:41 |
All that putz wanted to do was |
00:38:45 |
...while I was ready to feed her... |
00:38:48 |
...protect her, |
00:38:53 |
I sent her poetry. |
00:38:56 |
Longfellow. |
00:38:58 |
Can't go wrong with Longfellow. |
00:39:03 |
Day by day I gazed upon her |
00:39:09 |
Day by day I sighed with passion |
00:39:15 |
Day by day my heart within me |
00:39:19 |
Grew more hot with love and longing |
00:39:25 |
I gave her "Hiawatha." |
00:39:27 |
All she wanted was a touchdown. |
00:39:32 |
Yeah. |
00:39:34 |
To the quarterback's girlfriend. |
00:39:37 |
To Gloria. |
00:39:46 |
Drink, drink. It's the best. |
00:39:53 |
- You look terrific. |
00:39:58 |
How about some mushroom dip? |
00:40:02 |
I thought this was a business meeting. |
00:40:05 |
What's wrong with a little dip? |
00:40:07 |
I never met a person so hard to feed. |
00:40:10 |
Who are you mad at? |
00:40:12 |
Come on, have some dip. |
00:40:38 |
Swallow. |
00:40:43 |
Nice. |
00:40:45 |
I think we should talk business. |
00:40:47 |
You have an exquisite neck. |
00:40:49 |
I have to leave by 7. |
00:40:53 |
Oh, right. I forgot. |
00:40:56 |
- You got a "proposition." |
00:41:05 |
- Shoot. |
00:41:10 |
Greenmail? |
00:41:12 |
You're offering to buy me out? |
00:41:14 |
Why so uptight? It's not illegal. |
00:41:17 |
It's immoral. |
00:41:20 |
A distinction that has |
00:41:23 |
But it matters to me. |
00:41:26 |
Well, for someone who has |
00:41:29 |
...you certainly have |
00:41:33 |
They're like nuclear warheads. |
00:41:35 |
They have theirs, so I have mine. |
00:41:38 |
Once you use them, |
00:41:41 |
Let me ask you: |
00:41:42 |
Do you have authorization |
00:41:47 |
Of course not. |
00:41:50 |
It's a lawyer's scheme. |
00:41:52 |
Everybody walks out happy. |
00:41:54 |
I get paid off. |
00:41:56 |
Jorgy keeps his company. |
00:41:58 |
The employees keep their jobs. |
00:42:01 |
The lawyer gets a big fat fee. |
00:42:04 |
Everybody walks out. Yumpin' yiminy. |
00:42:07 |
Sounds pretty good to me. |
00:42:09 |
- Except for the stockholders. |
00:42:12 |
...they don't know what hit them. |
00:42:16 |
No, not Albert Schweitzer, |
00:42:19 |
I take from the rich, |
00:42:22 |
Well, the upper middle class. |
00:42:24 |
- Would you care for some caviar? |
00:42:26 |
Do you like music? The violin? |
00:42:28 |
- Let's be serious. |
00:42:31 |
- Arthur. |
00:42:36 |
- First you laugh at me, then you insult me. |
00:42:39 |
- What will you take? |
00:42:41 |
The stock hasn't seen 25 in years. |
00:42:43 |
You want history? |
00:42:45 |
Take 2O. |
00:42:47 |
Such a high achiever. |
00:42:48 |
If you're mad at somebody, |
00:42:51 |
Twenty-five is my number, |
00:42:53 |
Well, I don't like your number, |
00:42:56 |
Do we have a deal or not? |
00:42:58 |
Let's discuss it over dinner. |
00:43:00 |
- Good night. Your 2O minutes are up. |
00:43:03 |
Let's segue into some soup |
00:43:07 |
Come on. Don't go away mad. |
00:43:10 |
I didn't buy your proposition. |
00:43:13 |
You're an emancipated woman. |
00:43:16 |
- I haven't lost. |
00:43:19 |
I got a proposition for you. |
00:43:23 |
You come on back up. |
00:43:24 |
We have a nice dinner. |
00:43:27 |
We make passionate love |
00:43:31 |
The first one who comes, loses. |
00:43:35 |
- Loses what? |
00:43:37 |
I come first, I sell you back |
00:43:41 |
You come first, you buy them at 25. |
00:43:47 |
I think you're serious. |
00:43:50 |
So how do you suggest |
00:43:53 |
Delicately. |
00:43:55 |
Under the heading, |
00:43:59 |
What do you got to lose, your virginity? |
00:44:05 |
So, what happens if we come together? |
00:44:11 |
I never thought of that. |
00:44:15 |
Well... |
00:44:17 |
...think about it, honey. |
00:44:19 |
I will. I will. |
00:44:22 |
Come on. Don't go. |
00:44:24 |
I haven't played my violin yet. |
00:46:30 |
Oh, God. |
00:46:35 |
Hello? |
00:46:38 |
I just wanted to see if you got home safe. |
00:46:41 |
Thank you. |
00:46:45 |
In your beddy-bye? |
00:46:48 |
I am. |
00:46:51 |
- Did I wake you? |
00:46:53 |
No. |
00:46:56 |
- Did you have dinner? |
00:47:00 |
With who? |
00:47:02 |
None of your business. |
00:47:08 |
- Are you thinking about me? |
00:47:10 |
Well, how could |
00:47:13 |
Pills, whiskey, self-help tapes. |
00:47:21 |
I got another proposition for you. |
00:47:24 |
Oh, yeah? I can't wait, |
00:47:26 |
We swap. |
00:47:29 |
Swap what, dirty jokes? |
00:47:34 |
No. I give you all my shares... |
00:47:36 |
...you give me the wire and cable division. |
00:47:41 |
Hello? |
00:47:43 |
Hello? You like? |
00:47:45 |
- I'll ask them. |
00:47:48 |
All right, now wait. Don't go away. |
00:47:52 |
Stay right where you are. All right. |
00:47:56 |
Okay. |
00:48:38 |
Here comes the bridge. |
00:49:27 |
That was very good. |
00:49:29 |
- Thank you. |
00:49:31 |
That was just for you. |
00:49:33 |
Well, I appreciate it. |
00:49:35 |
Sweet dreams, |
00:49:36 |
- Okay. Good night. |
00:49:41 |
Oh, God. |
00:50:11 |
Forget it. |
00:50:13 |
Tell him to go to hell. |
00:50:15 |
He spends $ 1 3 million for this place... |
00:50:18 |
...then he sells it for 35. |
00:50:21 |
My guys are out of work, |
00:50:25 |
- Now how do I live with that? |
00:50:28 |
The other divisions don't have |
00:50:31 |
- I don't wanna hear that. |
00:50:33 |
- You just don't have the cable division. |
00:50:36 |
...for everybody to understand... |
00:50:38 |
...why I can't kill these people |
00:50:41 |
...to enrich some son of a bitch |
00:50:45 |
I can't play with him |
00:50:48 |
He'll get the injunction lifted |
00:50:51 |
Don't be a pigheaded fool. |
00:50:54 |
He deserves to lose this company. |
00:51:08 |
- Good night, Mr. Jorgenson. |
00:51:11 |
Everything going along okay, |
00:51:13 |
Everything's moving right along, Gus. |
00:51:15 |
Everything's gonna be okay, |
00:51:18 |
- I mean, at the plant and everything? |
00:51:21 |
We'll be making wire and cable |
00:51:24 |
- Yes, sir. Good night, sir. |
00:51:30 |
Jorgy? |
00:51:33 |
- Have you got a minute? |
00:51:38 |
Do you mind if I speak frankly |
00:51:42 |
You always have, haven't you? |
00:51:45 |
You know... |
00:51:46 |
...I'm trained to think in contingency. |
00:51:50 |
You know I've spent my life |
00:51:53 |
And... |
00:51:55 |
Bill, you're in a panic. |
00:51:58 |
Well, you know how it is |
00:52:00 |
When things don't work out quite right... |
00:52:03 |
...and people have invested a lot of time, |
00:52:08 |
...management takes care of its own, Jorgy. |
00:52:11 |
And given the uncertainty |
00:52:17 |
...and the fact that you haven't set up |
00:52:24 |
Lord, I hate... |
00:52:28 |
When I retire in two years, I've told you, |
00:52:33 |
I promised you that. |
00:52:34 |
There won't be any business |
00:52:38 |
There won't be any business in one year. |
00:52:42 |
You're holding on to a dream. |
00:52:45 |
Go home, Bill. Have a drink. |
00:52:47 |
Give my best to Jeanette. |
00:52:50 |
I don't want the rug pulled out |
00:52:55 |
Good night. |
00:52:58 |
Jorgy, I've been here 1 5 years. |
00:53:01 |
Now, I've worked my ass off |
00:53:03 |
...and you're gonna let that man come in |
00:53:09 |
I'm sorry, Bill. |
00:53:11 |
Up here we don't plan the funeral |
00:53:27 |
Sounds like everybody's hungry. |
00:53:29 |
Well, let's eat. |
00:53:31 |
- Sit down, darling. |
00:53:38 |
Thank thee, Father, for thy care, |
00:53:41 |
For this and every other gift, |
00:53:45 |
Amen. |
00:53:57 |
Second down and 1 O, Lions at their 49, |
00:53:59 |
I don't know why you watch this. |
00:54:02 |
Maybe if you'd watch, you'd see. |
00:54:05 |
Yes. Go, go, go! |
00:54:07 |
I told you. |
00:54:29 |
Have to admit, |
00:54:33 |
Feels good, all right. |
00:54:38 |
I'm awfully glad you came, Kate. |
00:54:41 |
It means a hell of a lot to your mother. |
00:54:45 |
I love your mother. |
00:54:47 |
I can't say I'm sorry for that, |
00:54:51 |
...that it's done to you |
00:54:55 |
I'm okay, Jorgy. |
00:54:58 |
Good. |
00:55:00 |
Now let's talk a little business. |
00:55:02 |
Let's quit talking about what I won't do. |
00:55:06 |
Let's talk about what I will do. |
00:55:09 |
I have a problem. |
00:55:12 |
I'm a good lawyer. |
00:55:14 |
I wanna put it to a vote. |
00:55:19 |
Wanna put it in the hands |
00:55:21 |
Can't do that. It's too risky. |
00:55:24 |
- You're a fighter. I'm a fighter. |
00:55:28 |
There's no other choice |
00:55:33 |
This 3O percent, |
00:55:36 |
...can you absolutely count on them? |
00:55:38 |
They haven't let me down so far. |
00:55:41 |
Awful lot of Ozzies on our side. |
00:55:44 |
Don't trust Ozzie. He's a banker. |
00:55:47 |
I have to trust my friends, Kate. |
00:55:55 |
This is gonna be tough. |
00:55:58 |
I have to get Garfield to buy this. |
00:56:01 |
He won't want to. |
00:56:07 |
Talk nice. |
00:56:10 |
Give him your best smile. |
00:56:14 |
Come on, Kate. |
00:56:16 |
Let's take on the little son of a bitch. |
00:56:19 |
Let's kick his ass |
00:56:51 |
It's a quiet place. |
00:56:54 |
I thought it would be a good idea |
00:56:57 |
Do you like Japanese? |
00:57:00 |
I'd like to have Sony. |
00:57:02 |
Could you bring me a knife and fork? |
00:57:10 |
So, what do you say? |
00:57:14 |
A proxy fight? I'd have to be nuts. |
00:57:18 |
I could sit on my ass and wait |
00:57:21 |
...buy all the shares I need. |
00:57:22 |
Anybody else, |
00:57:27 |
You look very nice today. |
00:57:29 |
But if you win, Lawrence, |
00:57:33 |
You get what you want in three months |
00:57:38 |
I love it when you call me Lawrence. |
00:57:40 |
Say it again. |
00:57:45 |
There's a lot can stand |
00:57:49 |
Anti-takeover legislation's |
00:57:51 |
Drexel's gone under. Milken's in jail. |
00:57:53 |
Trump's waiting tables. |
00:57:55 |
Don't threaten me. |
00:57:56 |
And just maybe you're over-leveraged, |
00:58:02 |
- Thank you. You got any bread? |
00:58:05 |
No bread. |
00:58:07 |
They got no bread. |
00:58:09 |
They wanna run the world, |
00:58:15 |
In three weeks, you present your own slate. |
00:58:19 |
If you lose, you sell us back |
00:58:22 |
Worst-case scenario, |
00:58:26 |
Amazing people, the Japanese. |
00:58:29 |
We blow the hell out of them. |
00:58:31 |
They go back to school, learn English |
00:58:34 |
What do we do? |
00:58:35 |
We get bigheaded, |
00:58:38 |
Forget about schools. |
00:58:40 |
People can't read. People can't write. |
00:58:42 |
Country's full of dropouts. |
00:58:44 |
Education. |
00:58:46 |
Who needs education as long |
00:58:49 |
Meanwhile, I got everybody |
00:58:56 |
I've never seen such a beautiful lawyer. |
00:59:00 |
Come on, Lawrence. |
00:59:02 |
This is your game. |
00:59:05 |
Winner takes all. |
00:59:11 |
Rumor has it, you got balls. |
00:59:14 |
I've been trying to show you for weeks. |
00:59:18 |
Well, here's your opportunity. |
00:59:22 |
All right. |
00:59:24 |
I can always use |
00:59:27 |
After all, I wanna give you |
00:59:30 |
I love you. |
00:59:34 |
Of course you do. |
00:59:38 |
Because we're the same. |
00:59:42 |
We are not the same, Lawrence. |
00:59:44 |
Now, don't go spreading that around. |
00:59:46 |
You know what makes us the same... |
00:59:48 |
...what sets us apart? |
00:59:51 |
We care more about the game |
00:59:56 |
Oh, is that so? |
00:59:59 |
Yeah... |
01:00:01 |
...that's so. |
01:00:16 |
I'm gonna nail you, Lawrence... |
01:00:19 |
...and everybody |
01:00:21 |
...some broad did you in. |
01:00:28 |
You're so perfect for me. |
01:00:33 |
- I have to go. |
01:00:37 |
Lunch is on me, baby-poo. |
01:00:43 |
Where you going? |
01:00:44 |
I have to go back to the office. |
01:00:48 |
Don't go back to the office. |
01:01:02 |
Lady said to say, "We have no doughnuts." |
01:01:35 |
Here's your coffee, boss. |
01:01:44 |
You make me feel like a dirty crook. |
01:01:46 |
Sneaking off to Jersey is not my style. |
01:01:52 |
Can we speak frankly? |
01:01:56 |
No. Lie to me. |
01:01:57 |
Tell me how thrilled you are |
01:02:00 |
I always speak frankly. I hate people |
01:02:05 |
It means they're bullshitting me |
01:02:10 |
I'm listening. |
01:02:15 |
Now... |
01:02:18 |
...as you know, I had 8O, OOO shares |
01:02:25 |
What am I getting, a history lesson here? |
01:02:29 |
Since becoming aware |
01:02:35 |
...I bought an additional 4O, OOO shares. |
01:02:40 |
Congratulations. |
01:02:43 |
I'm prepared... |
01:02:48 |
...to sell you the right... |
01:02:51 |
...to vote those shares |
01:02:55 |
How much? |
01:03:00 |
- A million. |
01:03:03 |
You need a million shares |
01:03:08 |
Now, I can get you 1 O percent |
01:03:12 |
Better still, it's votes |
01:03:16 |
They lose 1 O percent, |
01:03:19 |
If you make a difference... |
01:03:21 |
...if I win by less than 1 OO, OOO votes, |
01:03:24 |
Otherwise, I don't need them, |
01:03:27 |
I'm not selling you an option. |
01:03:29 |
I'm selling you the right |
01:03:32 |
If they make a difference, |
01:03:35 |
If they don't, half a million. |
01:03:44 |
I've prepared the papers. |
01:03:47 |
Left the numbers blank. |
01:03:53 |
Everybody looks out for their own |
01:03:57 |
"What's in it for me?" |
01:04:19 |
Yes. Very good. Very good. |
01:04:20 |
- When do we run in the Times? |
01:04:22 |
- Times, Barron's, Forbes... |
01:04:25 |
- Next week, major cities in New England. |
01:04:28 |
Take this copy and slide it |
01:04:32 |
And up in the corner here, |
01:04:34 |
- You know? |
01:04:37 |
Oh, God. Look at him. |
01:04:39 |
He's trying to look like Desmond Tutu. |
01:04:49 |
All right, Richard, get our ad agency. |
01:04:51 |
- Call Barbaro. Call Pinelli. |
01:04:53 |
- Yeah. Where's that phone call from Tokyo? |
01:05:16 |
Taxi. Taxi! |
01:05:30 |
Thanks, Ron. |
01:05:36 |
Mr. Garfield's office. |
01:05:38 |
I expect him back at 5:3O. |
01:05:41 |
I'll ask him to phone you. |
01:05:53 |
Look, I found it. I found it. |
01:05:57 |
Mrs. Sullivan. She insisted |
01:06:01 |
I would appreciate a few moments |
01:06:05 |
Certainly. |
01:06:08 |
- Hold my calls. |
01:06:12 |
Come on in. Have a seat right there. |
01:06:14 |
Did your daughter send you? |
01:06:17 |
No, she didn't. She would be |
01:06:21 |
I like Kate. She's quite the tomato. |
01:06:24 |
She must have taken after you, huh? |
01:06:26 |
You're very kind. |
01:06:28 |
I would hope this meeting |
01:06:32 |
Everybody's looking |
01:06:35 |
You want a cup of coffee? |
01:06:37 |
- Cup of tea? Glass of water? |
01:06:41 |
- Harriet, cup of coffee. |
01:06:42 |
You mind if I smoke? |
01:06:46 |
I'd like to tell you why I'm here. |
01:06:49 |
Good. Shoot. |
01:06:57 |
I'm here to plead for our company. |
01:07:01 |
I want to talk to you |
01:07:05 |
...traditions. |
01:07:08 |
Would you care for a doughnut, |
01:07:11 |
We've worked so hard |
01:07:14 |
We're debt-free... |
01:07:16 |
...and we don't deserve to lose it. |
01:07:20 |
I want you to call off your fight with us. |
01:07:26 |
There's a trust fund in my name |
01:07:29 |
I'll turn it over to you if you go away. |
01:07:33 |
You don't wanna do that. |
01:07:34 |
We'll buy back your shares at cost, |
01:07:41 |
Interesting. |
01:07:43 |
I know a million dollars |
01:07:46 |
...but if I had more, I'd give it to you. |
01:07:49 |
Who are you doing it for? |
01:07:51 |
Money's not that important to me. |
01:07:54 |
- Well, it is to me. |
01:07:58 |
You'll have more money |
01:08:02 |
A million dollars. |
01:08:04 |
It's not enough. |
01:08:08 |
Go home, Mrs. Sullivan. |
01:08:11 |
I'd hoped to appeal |
01:08:14 |
I'm sorry. |
01:08:16 |
I don't take money from widows |
01:08:21 |
Before or after you put them out |
01:08:44 |
What a woman. |
01:08:47 |
Harriet, why do I always bring out |
01:09:40 |
Hello? |
01:09:43 |
Hello? |
01:09:45 |
Oh, please, |
01:09:51 |
Arthur! |
01:09:53 |
Get the car. Arthur. |
01:10:02 |
I'm sorry, sir. There's no answer |
01:10:05 |
Well, try it again. |
01:10:14 |
No! |
01:10:18 |
Excuse me, Bart. |
01:10:21 |
- Who's Bart? |
01:10:24 |
- I need to talk to you. |
01:10:26 |
I have something important to tell you. |
01:10:29 |
- You look beautiful. Who's this guy? |
01:10:33 |
I can't talk tomorrow. It won't keep. |
01:10:37 |
I want you to marry me. |
01:10:40 |
Let me put it another way. |
01:10:41 |
I wanna marry you. |
01:10:45 |
You thinking it over? |
01:10:47 |
- What are you talking about? |
01:10:50 |
I want you to be my wife. |
01:10:54 |
- I'm going to the opera. I gotta go. |
01:10:59 |
You're the last thought I have |
01:11:02 |
...and the first when I wake up |
01:11:06 |
I wanna be with you forever and ever. |
01:11:09 |
I wanna have babies with you. |
01:11:13 |
- Babies? |
01:11:16 |
You see, I gotta do this now, |
01:11:21 |
...maybe you won't wanna speak to me. |
01:11:24 |
I know how important it is to you, |
01:11:28 |
This is what's killing me. |
01:11:30 |
I want you. I need you. I love you. |
01:11:34 |
- Katherine. |
01:11:37 |
- I've gotta go. |
01:11:40 |
You don't wanna miss the first act. |
01:11:57 |
It's a wonderful production. |
01:12:04 |
Have a good time. |
01:12:53 |
I'm gonna lose her, Arthur. |
01:13:28 |
Oh, I've been looking for you. |
01:13:31 |
Anytime you're ready. |
01:13:35 |
You okay? |
01:13:37 |
Yeah. |
01:13:39 |
Just going over in my mind |
01:13:42 |
They're putting speakers outside. |
01:13:45 |
I think every shareholder |
01:13:49 |
I feel as if we're Harry and Bess |
01:13:52 |
Harry Truman was a better man than me. |
01:13:56 |
I haven't slept in days. |
01:14:00 |
Talk to me. Tell me. |
01:14:06 |
I'm scared. |
01:14:09 |
I'm scared that... |
01:14:14 |
...time has passed us by. |
01:14:19 |
I'm scared I don't know |
01:14:23 |
I'm scared that what I do know |
01:14:27 |
Things have changed. |
01:14:31 |
Whatever happened |
01:14:38 |
I don't want this man to win. |
01:14:44 |
I'm not scared. |
01:14:46 |
I'm just proud. |
01:14:49 |
I'm proud of the business we've built. |
01:14:54 |
I'm so proud of you. |
01:14:57 |
And if what we are |
01:15:00 |
...then that's their failing, not ours. |
01:15:06 |
It'll be all right. |
01:15:09 |
Just go out and tell the truth. |
01:15:14 |
Go out and give them hell, Harry. |
01:15:25 |
Good luck to us all today, Bill. |
01:15:27 |
I feel we're gonna be just fine. |
01:15:36 |
Looks like they've come from everywhere. |
01:15:40 |
- There's Ozzie. |
01:15:44 |
Everybody looking out for themselves. |
01:15:51 |
So did you get |
01:15:54 |
Did he finally promise to take care of you? |
01:15:57 |
Lord of the manor, house on the hill. |
01:16:01 |
Said he didn't want to talk about a funeral |
01:16:14 |
Well, time to go. |
01:16:18 |
Bill. |
01:16:22 |
How you gonna vote? |
01:16:44 |
Oh, boy. They're out in droves, Arthur. |
01:16:48 |
Why do they always bring the kids, |
01:16:54 |
That's right. Hooray, hooray. |
01:17:10 |
Okay, TV crews. |
01:17:11 |
Financial News Network, here we come. |
01:17:19 |
Mr. Garfield! |
01:17:21 |
What are your plans |
01:17:24 |
Make the stockholders richer. |
01:17:25 |
Will you liquidate New England Wire and |
01:17:30 |
My obligation is to the stockholders. |
01:17:34 |
Oh, come on! |
01:17:38 |
What about the workers? |
01:17:41 |
Are they gonna lose their jobs? |
01:17:44 |
Come on, Mr. Garfield! |
01:17:47 |
How do you feel about the outcome |
01:17:50 |
I feel confident that the shareholders |
01:17:53 |
I have every confidence |
01:18:36 |
Could I have your attention, please? |
01:18:39 |
Welcome to... |
01:18:40 |
...New England Wire and Cable's |
01:18:45 |
I'm William J. Coles, your president, |
01:18:50 |
I'm sure that everyone here realizes |
01:18:55 |
...is the election |
01:18:57 |
Now, there are staff members |
01:19:03 |
Right now, I am very proud |
01:19:07 |
...a man who could accurately |
01:19:12 |
...in the wire and cable industry. |
01:19:15 |
The chairman of the board |
01:19:19 |
...Mr. Andrew Jorgenson. |
01:19:43 |
Give them hell, Andy! |
01:19:46 |
It's good to see so many... |
01:19:49 |
...familiar faces, so many old friends. |
01:19:53 |
Some of you I haven't seen in years. |
01:19:56 |
Thank you for coming. |
01:19:59 |
Bill Coles, our able president, |
01:20:03 |
...of our year, of what we accomplished, |
01:20:07 |
...our business goals for next year |
01:20:18 |
I'd like to talk to you |
01:20:23 |
I want to share with you |
01:20:25 |
...concerning the vote that you're going |
01:20:31 |
This proud company, which has survived |
01:20:37 |
,,, numerous recessions, |
01:20:43 |
,,, is in imminent danger |
01:20:49 |
On this day, in the town of its birth, |
01:20:58 |
There is the instrument |
01:21:03 |
I want you to look at him in all of his glory. |
01:21:08 |
The entrepreneur of post-industrial America |
01:21:14 |
...with other people's money. |
01:21:19 |
The robber barons of old at least |
01:21:25 |
A coal mine, a railroad, banks. |
01:21:29 |
This man leaves nothing. |
01:21:32 |
He creates nothing. |
01:21:35 |
He runs nothing. |
01:21:39 |
And in his wake lies nothing |
01:21:45 |
Oh, if he said, "I know how to run |
01:21:51 |
...that would be something |
01:21:53 |
...but he's not saying that. |
01:21:56 |
He's saying, "I'm gonna kill you |
01:22:02 |
...you're worth more dead than alive." |
01:22:04 |
Well... |
01:22:06 |
...maybe that's true, but it is also true... |
01:22:10 |
...that one day this industry will turn. |
01:22:14 |
One day when the yen is weaker, |
01:22:20 |
...or when we finally begin |
01:22:25 |
...the infrastructure of our country, |
01:22:30 |
And when those things happen, |
01:22:35 |
...stronger because of our ordeal, |
01:22:40 |
And the price of our stock |
01:22:47 |
God save us if we vote to take |
01:22:53 |
God save this country |
01:22:59 |
We will then have become a nation |
01:23:02 |
...creates nothing but lawyers |
01:23:07 |
And if we are at that point in this country |
01:23:12 |
...because at the moment |
01:23:18 |
...well... |
01:23:20 |
...take a look around. Look at your |
01:23:23 |
You won't kill him, will you? No. |
01:23:26 |
It's called murder, and it's illegal. |
01:23:29 |
Well, this, too, is murder, |
01:23:34 |
Only on Wall Street, |
01:23:40 |
...and they call it legal. |
01:23:42 |
And they substitute dollar bills |
01:23:48 |
Damn it! |
01:23:49 |
A business is worth more |
01:23:55 |
It's the place where we earn our living, |
01:23:59 |
...dream our dreams. |
01:24:01 |
It is, in every sense, the very fabric |
01:24:07 |
So let us now, at this meeting... |
01:24:10 |
...say to every Garfield in the land... |
01:24:14 |
...here, we build things, |
01:24:20 |
Here, we care about more |
01:24:24 |
Here... |
01:24:27 |
...we care about people. |
01:24:54 |
Thank you. |
01:24:57 |
And now I'd like to introduce |
01:25:02 |
Mr. Gar... |
01:25:05 |
Let's show a little courtesy, |
01:25:09 |
Mr. Garfield is the president |
01:25:13 |
...of Garfield Investments. |
01:25:16 |
Mr. Garfield. |
01:25:39 |
Amen. |
01:25:42 |
And amen. |
01:25:45 |
And amen. |
01:25:47 |
You have to forgive me. |
01:25:51 |
Where I come from, you always say amen |
01:25:56 |
Because that's what you just heard. |
01:25:59 |
A prayer. |
01:26:03 |
Where I come from... |
01:26:05 |
...that particular prayer |
01:26:13 |
You just heard the prayer for the dead, |
01:26:17 |
...and you didn't say amen. |
01:26:21 |
This company is dead. |
01:26:24 |
I didn't kill it. Don't blame me. |
01:26:27 |
It was dead when I got here. |
01:26:33 |
It's too late for prayers. |
01:26:39 |
For even if the prayers were answered |
01:26:43 |
...and the yen did this |
01:26:45 |
...and the infrastructure did the other thing, |
01:26:50 |
You know why? |
01:26:53 |
Fiber optics. |
01:26:55 |
New technologies. |
01:27:00 |
Obsolescence. |
01:27:03 |
We're dead, all right. |
01:27:05 |
We're just not broke. |
01:27:07 |
And do you know the surest way |
01:27:11 |
Keep getting an increasing share |
01:27:15 |
Down the tubes. |
01:27:17 |
Slow but sure. |
01:27:20 |
You know, at one time... |
01:27:22 |
...there must have been dozens |
01:27:28 |
And I'll bet the last company around |
01:27:31 |
...the best goddamn buggy whip |
01:27:34 |
Now, how would you have liked to have |
01:27:40 |
You invested in a business, |
01:27:43 |
Let's have the intelligence, |
01:27:47 |
...to sign the death certificate, |
01:27:50 |
...and invest in something with a future. |
01:27:56 |
"But we can't," goes the prayer. |
01:28:01 |
We can't, because |
01:28:04 |
...a responsibility to our employees, |
01:28:09 |
What will happen to them? |
01:28:11 |
I got two words for that: |
01:28:14 |
Who cares? |
01:28:16 |
Care about them? Why? |
01:28:19 |
They didn't care about you. |
01:28:21 |
They sucked you dry. |
01:28:24 |
You have no responsibility to them. |
01:28:26 |
For the last 1 O years, |
01:28:32 |
Did this community ever say, |
01:28:36 |
We'll lower taxes, |
01:28:40 |
Check it out. You're paying |
01:28:44 |
And our devoted employees who have taken |
01:28:49 |
...are still making twice |
01:28:52 |
And our stock, |
01:29:00 |
Who cares? |
01:29:02 |
I'll tell you. |
01:29:04 |
Me. |
01:29:07 |
I'm not your best friend. |
01:29:10 |
I'm your only friend. |
01:29:15 |
I don't make anything? |
01:29:17 |
I'm making you money. |
01:29:19 |
And lest we forget, |
01:29:22 |
...any of you became stockholders |
01:29:25 |
You want to make money. |
01:29:27 |
You don't care if they manufacture wire |
01:29:34 |
You wanna make money! |
01:29:37 |
I'm the only friend you've got. |
01:29:43 |
Take the money. |
01:29:44 |
Invest it somewhere else. |
01:29:47 |
Maybe... |
01:29:49 |
Maybe you'll get lucky, |
01:29:54 |
And if it is, you'll create new jobs |
01:29:58 |
...and, God forbid, |
01:30:05 |
And if anybody asks, |
01:30:12 |
And by the way... |
01:30:14 |
...it pleases me that I am called |
01:30:20 |
You know why, fellow stockholders? |
01:30:23 |
Because at my funeral... |
01:30:25 |
...you'll leave with a smile on your face |
01:30:29 |
Now, that's a funeral worth having. |
01:30:47 |
The ballots will be marked... |
01:30:49 |
...and deposited in the ballot boxes |
01:31:41 |
Ladies and gentlemen, please. |
01:31:45 |
May I have your attention, please? |
01:31:48 |
I will now read |
01:32:04 |

01:32:07 |
1,741, 418. |
01:32:11 |

01:32:17 |

01:32:51 |
Congratulations, Mr. Garfield. |
01:32:54 |
Congratulations, Lawrence. |
01:34:40 |
You okay, boss? |
01:34:48 |
You want some chicken soup |
01:34:50 |
No. |
01:34:52 |
Pie? |
01:34:53 |
No. |
01:34:57 |
How about some of that carrot cake |
01:35:04 |
No. |
01:35:55 |
Well, Carmen, we did it again. |
01:35:58 |
I can always count on you, can't I? |
01:36:01 |
Another barrelful of money. |
01:36:05 |
Not bad for a kid from the Bronx. |
01:36:12 |
I love money. |
01:36:15 |
I love money. |
01:36:17 |
Mr, Garfield, Kate Sullivan is on the line, |
01:36:24 |
Are you in or out, Mr, Garfield? |
01:36:29 |
- Hello? |
01:36:34 |
- ,,, overbearing... |
01:36:37 |
I have a proposition for you, |
01:36:39 |
Are you ready, Lawrence? |
01:36:41 |
Ready, |
01:36:44 |
Air bags. |
01:36:46 |
Air bags? |
01:36:48 |
Every car in America |
01:36:51 |
Did you know that air bags |
01:36:55 |
Did you dump Bart? |
01:36:59 |
The Mitsushimi Company of Japan |
01:37:03 |
...with New England Wire and Cable... |
01:37:05 |
,,, for the production of air bags, |
01:37:10 |
I love the sound of your voice. |
01:37:12 |
Well, here comes the best part, |
01:37:15 |
You sell Wire and Cable |
01:37:19 |
They modernize and re-equip the plant |
01:37:25 |
What's in it for me? |
01:37:27 |
They'll pay 28 bucks a share, |
01:37:31 |
You like? |
01:37:33 |
They'll go to 3O. |
01:37:35 |
Thirty? You think so? |
01:37:38 |
Why not? We'll talk about it at dinner. |
01:37:42 |
Lunch, tomorrow, 1: OO. |
01:37:45 |
You know where. Strictly business. |
01:37:48 |
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Strictly business. |
01:37:51 |
Wow, did you hear that, Carmen? |
01:37:53 |
Harriet! Call my manicurist, |
01:37:57 |
...tell Arthur I want two tickets |
01:38:00 |
We're back in business! |
01:38:07 |
It's money that I love. |
