Carpetbaggers The

00:02:27 |
Every generation has |
00:02:31 |
its adventurers |
00:02:34 |
to stand head and shoulders |
00:02:37 |
Among them could be |
00:02:39 |
a do-gooder, a tyrant |
00:02:42 |
a man who leaves |
00:02:44 |
on everything |
00:02:46 |
I guess in the past generation |
00:02:49 |
it could have been someone |
00:02:53 |
Jonas Cord, Jr.-- |
00:02:54 |
the best or the worst, |
00:02:57 |
you imagine he might |
00:02:59 |
or how much you believed |
00:03:01 |
The legend of Jonas |
00:03:05 |
and it began |
00:03:08 |
in the sky |
00:03:11 |
There it is, Jonas! |
00:03:12 |
We hit it right on the nose! |
00:03:20 |
Let me take the stick |
00:03:23 |
You can't fly. |
00:03:24 |
I've been watching |
00:03:27 |
You pull it back and you go up. |
00:03:29 |
You push it forward |
00:03:31 |
Okay, it's yours, |
00:03:43 |
You're gonna kill us! |
00:03:48 |
Get your hands the hell |
00:03:51 |
That felt good. |
00:03:52 |
I'm going to try it again. |
00:03:53 |
Not with me in it. |
00:03:55 |
Well, then get out-- |
00:04:12 |
Look out! |
00:04:20 |
Take her, Joe. Land it. |
00:05:10 |
Hey, Nevada! |
00:05:12 |
Where's your horse? |
00:05:13 |
Still running from |
00:05:17 |
What the hell is that |
00:05:19 |
Joe? He's a first-class flyer. |
00:05:24 |
He does have a tendency |
00:05:26 |
Somebody should take |
00:05:29 |
Its not his-- it's mine. |
00:05:30 |
Huh. You can't fly. |
00:05:33 |
I just did. |
00:05:36 |
I might have known it. |
00:05:38 |
All right, what |
00:05:41 |
Nothing. I picked it up |
00:05:44 |
from an unlucky card player |
00:05:47 |
Now, he could fly this |
00:05:50 |
You know, your father didn't |
00:05:52 |
My father didn't like the way |
00:05:56 |
You scared the pinto beans |
00:05:58 |
out of every Mexican |
00:06:02 |
Nevada, who told the old man |
00:06:06 |
The newspapers. |
00:06:08 |
You had a pretty big spread. |
00:06:10 |
Ah, it was a grandstand play. |
00:06:12 |
She didn't want to die. |
00:06:13 |
Came close to it. |
00:06:15 |
Look, the longer we keep |
00:06:17 |
the more he's like a mule |
00:06:18 |
with a burr under his tail. |
00:06:19 |
Now come on, let's go. |
00:06:32 |
Another ounce ought |
00:06:34 |
Is that all |
00:06:36 |
after ruining half |
00:06:38 |
with another one of |
00:06:41 |
Your message said to get |
00:06:44 |
Not through the roof. |
00:06:45 |
Two more feet and everything |
00:06:46 |
within three miles |
00:06:47 |
of this powder keg |
00:06:49 |
Yeah. Yeah, |
00:06:52 |
Why the hell didn't you get |
00:06:55 |
when McAllister told you? |
00:06:57 |
'Cause the girl |
00:06:59 |
I couldn't leave her alone. |
00:07:00 |
You didn't have |
00:07:03 |
and to make a small |
00:07:05 |
into page-one headlines. |
00:07:07 |
Well, it would've read worse |
00:07:15 |
Well, what did you do |
00:07:17 |
that made the girl |
00:07:20 |
A pretty ordinary thing. |
00:07:22 |
I told her there |
00:07:26 |
And if you had any brains... |
00:07:28 |
Brains? |
00:07:29 |
Right now. |
00:07:30 |
Right now, |
00:07:32 |
there's a pair of vultures |
00:07:36 |
for $30,000 or they'll sue |
00:07:38 |
and who knows what else? |
00:07:40 |
Tell them to go ahead. |
00:07:42 |
Watch the price drop. |
00:07:43 |
This is the fourth |
00:07:45 |
that you've been |
00:07:46 |
Are you angry or... jealous? |
00:07:50 |
Disgusted. |
00:07:51 |
A son with everything-- |
00:07:55 |
and he runs around |
00:07:57 |
like some homeless moron. |
00:07:58 |
Now, where do you |
00:08:00 |
Back to Los Angeles. |
00:08:02 |
You don't need me |
00:08:05 |
You're either going |
00:08:08 |
Besides, I got a date. |
00:08:11 |
What are you trying to prove? |
00:08:14 |
That you're a man? |
00:08:16 |
Well, a man is judged |
00:08:21 |
not in his bed. |
00:08:24 |
You dried-up, impotent old man. |
00:08:27 |
You ought to be glad |
00:08:29 |
still has what it takes. |
00:08:31 |
otherwise, that |
00:08:33 |
might think there was something |
00:08:44 |
Jonas? |
00:08:48 |
Jo... |
00:08:59 |
Age 48. Survivors, wife Rina |
00:09:03 |
Cause of death, |
00:09:05 |
That's medical for |
00:09:08 |
Will you accept it or |
00:09:10 |
Can you put down heart attack? |
00:09:12 |
I'm afraid I can't do that. |
00:09:13 |
Then keep it confidential. |
00:09:15 |
I'll make the public |
00:09:19 |
Its your privilege. |
00:09:22 |
I'll file it |
00:09:23 |
and have my girl |
00:09:35 |
The German contracts. |
00:09:36 |
They're supposed |
00:09:38 |
Who's going to do it? |
00:09:39 |
I am. |
00:09:40 |
Denby, |
00:09:45 |
You don't need |
00:09:47 |
Yes, Junior. |
00:09:52 |
And don't you ever |
00:09:58 |
Oh. Those people outside. |
00:10:00 |
Give them $5,000, get a release |
00:10:02 |
and kick them out. |
00:10:03 |
Suppose, suppose |
00:10:05 |
Denby, their mother knows |
00:10:07 |
to trap me into marriage, |
00:10:09 |
Yes, Junior, uh, Jonas. |
00:10:12 |
Give the news |
00:10:13 |
Tell them they get |
00:10:15 |
a five percent |
00:10:17 |
and see to it they |
00:10:19 |
Got it? |
00:10:20 |
Yes, Jonas. |
00:10:24 |
Five percent increase? |
00:10:26 |
But why? |
00:10:27 |
Because next week |
00:10:29 |
to work 20º/º harder. |
00:10:30 |
Yes, Jonas. |
00:10:33 |
Good-bye. |
00:10:40 |
I drew up your father's will. |
00:10:42 |
He held 90º/º |
00:10:44 |
and it's yours. |
00:10:45 |
You'd better get it |
00:10:48 |
Looks like I'm going to need |
00:10:50 |
a personal consultant |
00:10:53 |
someone like you, Mac. |
00:10:55 |
Full-time. |
00:10:56 |
A hundred thousand a year |
00:10:58 |
Yes or no? |
00:11:00 |
How do you know you can afford |
00:11:04 |
You're too smart to |
00:11:10 |
Well... |
00:11:11 |
Now, the first thing |
00:11:13 |
is call a meeting |
00:11:16 |
and have you officially elected |
00:11:19 |
lf I own 90º/º of the stock, |
00:11:23 |
Make the happy announcement. |
00:11:30 |
Who owns the other 10º/º? |
00:11:32 |
Well, two-and-a-half |
00:11:34 |
Rina Cord and Nevada Smith. |
00:11:36 |
Two percent each, Judge Samuel |
00:11:39 |
president of the |
00:11:41 |
and one percent to |
00:11:44 |
Eugene Denby. |
00:11:45 |
What's our cash position? |
00:11:47 |
Solvent, but thin. |
00:11:49 |
What do we need |
00:11:52 |
Oh, about $200,000. |
00:11:54 |
What have you done about it? |
00:11:55 |
What makes you think |
00:11:57 |
You're here. My father wouldn't |
00:11:59 |
call you from Los Angeles |
00:12:00 |
just to settle with |
00:12:02 |
He could have done |
00:12:04 |
I arranged a loan from |
00:12:08 |
of Los Angeles for $300,000. |
00:12:10 |
Good. |
00:12:11 |
That'll give me enough money |
00:12:13 |
the minority stockholders, |
00:12:15 |
not counting Nevada |
00:12:17 |
What's the minority |
00:12:18 |
Maybe $60,000. |
00:12:21 |
I want complete control. |
00:12:22 |
Offer the others... |
00:12:25 |
But Jo... |
00:12:26 |
They take it or leave it. |
00:12:27 |
Tell them I'm so young |
00:12:30 |
and have such wild ideas |
00:12:31 |
that in a year, the stock |
00:12:35 |
And after they take it, |
00:12:38 |
He's too nervous to be honest. |
00:12:40 |
Suppose they turn it down. |
00:12:43 |
They won't, |
00:12:48 |
Well, is there anything else |
00:12:49 |
I should take care of, |
00:12:51 |
Well, you might think |
00:12:54 |
the one you're going |
00:12:55 |
Contract for what? |
00:12:58 |
Something to do |
00:13:00 |
Plastics, I think he called it. |
00:13:02 |
Have Denby give |
00:13:04 |
before you talk to |
00:13:05 |
Study it, and give me a |
00:13:08 |
All right. |
00:13:09 |
lf you'd prefer, |
00:13:11 |
take care |
00:13:13 |
Personal things? |
00:13:18 |
He was an impersonal man. |
00:13:21 |
The contents of this desk... |
00:13:23 |
you could never tell he once |
00:13:28 |
Your father was |
00:13:31 |
My father was a greedy, selfish, |
00:13:33 |
insensitive, |
00:13:36 |
How he got as far as he did, |
00:13:47 |
It was a present from my mother. |
00:13:51 |
Have the plane ready, |
00:13:54 |
Airplane? |
00:13:56 |
We're flying to Los Angeles |
00:13:58 |
What about your |
00:14:00 |
Don't worry. |
00:14:01 |
I wouldn't miss that |
00:14:06 |
Welcome home, Mr. Jonas. |
00:14:08 |
Thank you, Jedediah. |
00:14:12 |
My father's dead. |
00:14:13 |
I know. |
00:14:14 |
Mr. Denby called. |
00:14:16 |
I'm deeply sorry, Mr. Jonas. |
00:14:18 |
Anyone else know? |
00:14:20 |
I didn't think it was |
00:14:24 |
Mrs. Cord is in her room. |
00:14:38 |
Louise, bring in my robe. |
00:14:53 |
Jonas! |
00:14:54 |
Hi. |
00:14:55 |
Where's Louise? |
00:14:57 |
Downstairs. |
00:14:58 |
Your father wouldn't |
00:15:00 |
He'll never know. |
00:15:02 |
He will if I tell him. |
00:15:04 |
You won't. |
00:15:05 |
You seem pretty |
00:15:07 |
I am. |
00:15:09 |
Jonas, stop that... |
00:15:12 |
What do you think you're...? |
00:15:13 |
Have you gone |
00:15:15 |
Don't you know |
00:15:18 |
he could come walking in |
00:15:20 |
No, he won't. |
00:15:23 |
He won't? |
00:15:25 |
Mrs. Cord, your dearly beloved |
00:15:33 |
He had a stroke. |
00:15:40 |
He died about... |
00:15:52 |
I better get dressed. |
00:15:54 |
Uh-uh. |
00:15:58 |
I'm not finished. |
00:15:59 |
What is there to finish? |
00:16:01 |
You and me. |
00:16:03 |
Didn't we start out together? |
00:16:05 |
Didn't I bring you home |
00:16:08 |
The only girl? |
00:16:09 |
Oh, Jonas... |
00:16:10 |
Didn't I hold your hand |
00:16:12 |
Never once touching you below |
00:16:15 |
And in five minutes, |
00:16:16 |
didn't a coarse, |
00:16:18 |
take you away from me |
00:16:20 |
Oh, Jonas, please... |
00:16:21 |
Now, how did that happen? |
00:16:22 |
What'd he tell you about me? |
00:16:24 |
Jonas, please... |
00:16:25 |
What'd he say? |
00:16:26 |
He said you were too young. |
00:16:27 |
And I don't-don't remember. |
00:16:29 |
Well... |
00:16:31 |
I'm not too young now. |
00:16:33 |
I'm the master, |
00:16:39 |
And I've stood in line |
00:16:44 |
You wouldn't dare. |
00:16:50 |
I'll scream. The servant... |
00:16:52 |
Will think |
00:17:08 |
Oh, Jonas... |
00:17:10 |
Oh, Jonas, Jonas, Jonas... |
00:17:12 |
You want me, Rina? |
00:17:13 |
Oh, yes. |
00:17:14 |
Why now? |
00:17:15 |
Oh, I've always wanted you. |
00:17:17 |
I've always wanted you. |
00:17:19 |
But you chose my father? |
00:17:20 |
I chose money. |
00:17:22 |
Oh, Jonas, what |
00:17:25 |
We can do anything |
00:17:27 |
I'm yours any |
00:17:30 |
Oh, love me, Jonas. |
00:17:33 |
Love me, love me, love me. |
00:17:35 |
What for? |
00:17:36 |
You know you want me |
00:17:37 |
more than anything |
00:17:40 |
I just wanted to see |
00:17:42 |
before your late husband |
00:17:44 |
I'd go further than |
00:17:46 |
You'd grab at anything now. |
00:17:47 |
Oh, Jonas, you lost me once. |
00:17:49 |
Don't do it again. |
00:17:52 |
The day I take you is when |
00:17:56 |
when you're happy-- |
00:17:57 |
when you have nothing to gain |
00:18:00 |
You're afraid, |
00:18:02 |
Afraid you're not half the man |
00:18:05 |
And you're not, |
00:18:07 |
You're not a man! |
00:18:08 |
You're just a scared |
00:18:11 |
a scared little boy! |
00:18:13 |
Junior! |
00:18:14 |
Junior! |
00:18:16 |
Junior! |
00:18:21 |
Good afternoon. |
00:18:22 |
Why, Mr. McAllister, |
00:18:23 |
we thought you were in Nevada. |
00:18:25 |
I was, four hours ago. |
00:18:28 |
Mr. Moroni in? |
00:18:29 |
Oh, I'm sure he is, but I'm |
00:18:32 |
I'll see. |
00:18:38 |
lf Denby looked like that, |
00:18:41 |
I thought the loan |
00:18:43 |
to the Cord Chemical Company. |
00:18:45 |
Well, Jonas... |
00:18:47 |
A good banker looks through the |
00:18:49 |
My experience is limited, |
00:18:50 |
but it's still backed |
00:18:53 |
Here are the production |
00:18:55 |
Very optimistic. |
00:18:57 |
How well do you know your |
00:18:59 |
Not as well as I will |
00:19:01 |
But this much I do know: |
00:19:04 |
In the years to come, |
00:19:06 |
that never existed |
00:19:09 |
I presume you're referring |
00:19:11 |
you're acquiring |
00:19:14 |
That's part of it. |
00:19:16 |
And just how much |
00:19:18 |
I heard the word |
00:19:22 |
And what makes you so sure |
00:19:25 |
Eastman and Dupont's interest |
00:19:28 |
Anything |
00:19:30 |
has got to be worth something. |
00:19:32 |
And before you agreed |
00:19:35 |
you must have given it |
00:19:37 |
Well, buying an option |
00:19:40 |
are vastly different matters. |
00:19:41 |
The day after the funeral, I'll |
00:19:44 |
to learn all there is to know |
00:19:45 |
And while you're gone? |
00:19:48 |
Mr. McAllister has agreed |
00:19:51 |
He'll run the company. |
00:19:57 |
You will note that although |
00:20:02 |
we are extending your credit |
00:20:06 |
One of my banking |
00:20:09 |
I don't believe in budgeting |
00:20:12 |
my clients too closely. |
00:20:14 |
Sometimes, a few dollars more |
00:20:17 |
makes the difference |
00:20:21 |
Or the difference |
00:20:23 |
on the loan to the bank. |
00:20:27 |
No strings |
00:20:30 |
Only my approval |
00:20:33 |
Thank you, Mr. Moroni. |
00:20:36 |
Now, would you gentlemen like |
00:20:38 |
at dinner this evening? |
00:20:39 |
Well, unfortunately |
00:20:40 |
we're due back |
00:20:42 |
Tonight? |
00:20:44 |
Well, the afternoon |
00:20:46 |
I own my own plane. |
00:20:47 |
We'll be home at 9:00. |
00:20:49 |
9:00? Mr. Cord... |
00:20:51 |
you-you better fly carefully |
00:20:54 |
Mr. Cord. |
00:20:56 |
After all, we just gave you |
00:20:59 |
Well, if anything happens to us |
00:21:01 |
just stop payment on the check. |
00:21:03 |
You must live |
00:21:05 |
-Oh... |
00:21:07 |
Lisa. |
00:21:08 |
Hey, Jonas! |
00:21:10 |
What a surprise. |
00:21:12 |
Hello, Buzz. |
00:21:13 |
Mr. Dalton, Mr. McAllister, |
00:21:15 |
How are you? |
00:21:16 |
Mr. Dalton. |
00:21:17 |
Glad to meet you. |
00:21:18 |
Mr. Dalton is the pilot |
00:21:19 |
from whom I secured the plane. |
00:21:20 |
What are you doing here, Buzz? |
00:21:21 |
Trying to get a stake |
00:21:23 |
In a way. |
00:21:24 |
I've been trying |
00:21:27 |
I got a mail contract. |
00:21:28 |
L.A. to Frisco, 12 months |
00:21:32 |
But I have to pass it up, |
00:21:35 |
to buy the three planes |
00:21:38 |
How much it cost? |
00:21:39 |
30,000. 20 for the planes, |
00:21:43 |
until the first check comes in. |
00:21:45 |
Are these the figures? |
00:21:46 |
Yeah, got it all worked out. |
00:21:48 |
I can net five grand a month |
00:21:49 |
after expenses and amortization. |
00:21:51 |
You got your money, |
00:21:53 |
I get 50º/º of the stock |
00:21:55 |
and a chattel mortgage |
00:21:57 |
amortized |
00:21:59 |
both payable to Cord Chemicals. |
00:22:01 |
Partner... |
00:22:03 |
you now own |
00:22:06 |
Mr. Moroni, would |
00:22:08 |
to arrange the |
00:22:10 |
Certainly, Mr. Cord. |
00:22:12 |
Make the loan for 50,000. |
00:22:13 |
Wait a minute. |
00:22:15 |
Yes, but I just |
00:22:17 |
about good banking. |
00:22:18 |
An honest man always needs more |
00:22:20 |
than he asks for. |
00:22:21 |
Good luck, Buzz. |
00:22:24 |
Let's go, Mac. |
00:22:25 |
Hey, what do we call |
00:22:27 |
International Airways. |
00:22:28 |
International? |
00:22:29 |
We're only going |
00:22:31 |
This year. |
00:22:34 |
Next year, who knows? |
00:22:56 |
Watching you pack gives me |
00:22:59 |
Take something for it. |
00:23:01 |
I'm going to. |
00:23:03 |
A powder, tonight. |
00:23:05 |
No need to. |
00:23:08 |
Its your house now. |
00:23:09 |
He left it to you. |
00:23:10 |
I'm selling it. |
00:23:12 |
You are? |
00:23:13 |
Mm-hmm. To you. |
00:23:16 |
For $100,000. |
00:23:20 |
It only cost 55. |
00:23:23 |
Along with it goes my stock |
00:23:26 |
The stock isn't |
00:23:29 |
Under the laws |
00:23:31 |
I'm entitled to one-third |
00:23:34 |
will or no will. |
00:23:36 |
Facts of life, Jonas. |
00:23:38 |
I could tie you up in court |
00:23:42 |
I can wait. Can you? |
00:23:46 |
No. |
00:23:47 |
Well, let's make it easy |
00:23:50 |
I'll take 50,000 now |
00:23:52 |
and your note |
00:23:54 |
for 10,000 a year |
00:24:18 |
How do you like |
00:24:23 |
lf you'd worn those |
00:24:24 |
you wouldn't be a widow. |
00:24:25 |
He'd have climbed right |
00:24:32 |
The first installment. |
00:24:36 |
Jonas... |
00:24:37 |
You'll get my note |
00:24:38 |
for the balance |
00:24:40 |
No, it's not that. |
00:24:41 |
I'm sorry for what happened |
00:24:45 |
Neither of us meant |
00:24:47 |
I did. |
00:24:55 |
Jonas, what can I do? |
00:24:57 |
You can live well on $100,000. |
00:25:02 |
Then at least do me one favor. |
00:25:04 |
The way you feel, |
00:25:06 |
Uh-uh. |
00:25:07 |
The way I feel |
00:25:09 |
Well, then give |
00:25:11 |
Get your revenge over with. |
00:25:12 |
Do it now. |
00:25:13 |
Mistreat me, |
00:25:15 |
only get it over with. |
00:25:18 |
No, thank you. |
00:25:20 |
Jonas, please, |
00:25:22 |
Anything, everything, |
00:25:24 |
That's what you enjoy, |
00:25:26 |
the only thing |
00:25:29 |
You don't know any more |
00:25:31 |
You want sensation-- |
00:25:32 |
the uglier, the better. |
00:25:34 |
The more it hurts, |
00:25:37 |
The more improper, |
00:25:41 |
I just want |
00:25:43 |
so that you can have |
00:25:46 |
and I can pay my debts. |
00:25:47 |
Who knows? |
00:25:48 |
You might find out |
00:25:50 |
more then you realize. |
00:26:00 |
I do like you, Rina. |
00:26:07 |
I like you a lot. |
00:26:10 |
And I'm going |
00:26:14 |
because for someone |
00:26:18 |
that's the best torture |
00:26:21 |
Now you have a nice time |
00:26:54 |
Come in. |
00:26:58 |
Well, Rina just pulled out |
00:27:00 |
considerably richer |
00:27:03 |
So I heard. |
00:27:06 |
Where are you going? |
00:27:07 |
Germany. |
00:27:09 |
Hit the trail myself. |
00:27:11 |
I figured on |
00:27:14 |
Oh, no, not me. |
00:27:15 |
Stay here then. |
00:27:16 |
I just bought my house. |
00:27:17 |
I'll be back |
00:27:18 |
No, I'm leaving tonight. |
00:27:20 |
Why? |
00:27:21 |
Oh, some houses just die. |
00:27:23 |
Its better to get out |
00:27:25 |
You're the only friend I got, |
00:27:32 |
You're my real father. |
00:27:33 |
Now, don't split up the family. |
00:27:34 |
Nicely said, Junior, |
00:27:37 |
but I'm a hired hand, |
00:27:39 |
and all jobs have |
00:27:41 |
Just remember what I taught you: |
00:27:44 |
Choose your side, draw fast, |
00:27:47 |
but don't hit |
00:27:55 |
I'll try. |
00:27:56 |
lf you're determined to leave, |
00:27:59 |
No. No, I'm okay. |
00:28:27 |
Its a going-away present. |
00:28:30 |
Max Sand-- ever hear of him? |
00:28:35 |
Cowboy father, indian mother, |
00:28:40 |
Went after three outlaws |
00:28:42 |
who tortured and killed |
00:28:43 |
Gunned them down, |
00:28:48 |
Bodyguard in a fancy house |
00:28:51 |
Killed another man there. |
00:28:53 |
Went to a prison camp, |
00:28:55 |
Robbed banks, hid in Mexico. |
00:29:00 |
Satisfied more women |
00:29:01 |
than a cavalry regiment |
00:29:03 |
Wanted in six states. |
00:29:08 |
Then something happened. |
00:29:11 |
He hung up his guns, |
00:29:15 |
Took a job as a companion |
00:29:18 |
no father to speak of. |
00:29:20 |
Max Sand. |
00:29:24 |
Well, I'll be. |
00:29:25 |
Did you dig up |
00:29:29 |
And that's the only copy. |
00:29:33 |
Even your father didn't know. |
00:29:35 |
Nobody did. |
00:29:38 |
Nobody does. |
00:29:39 |
How much you asking for this? |
00:29:42 |
Nothing. |
00:29:44 |
Take it with you. |
00:29:47 |
But if you're ever tempted |
00:29:50 |
just open it to any page |
00:29:53 |
Who has a better right |
00:29:59 |
Junior, you're not going |
00:30:00 |
to make me pay for this someday |
00:30:05 |
Depend on it. |
00:30:11 |
By the way, I almost forgot. |
00:30:13 |
I have something for you. |
00:30:15 |
What is it? |
00:30:16 |
All my stock in Cord Chemical, |
00:30:18 |
signed over to you, |
00:30:21 |
Nevada, this is, this is... |
00:30:23 |
Don't say anything. |
00:30:24 |
Its no use to me. |
00:30:28 |
All right. |
00:30:30 |
Well... |
00:30:33 |
good-bye, Junior. |
00:30:39 |
Good-bye, Nevada. |
00:30:42 |
Keep in touch. |
00:30:46 |
Sure. |
00:30:59 |
Nevada? |
00:31:01 |
Yeah? |
00:31:03 |
Where you going? |
00:31:04 |
What are you going to do? |
00:31:05 |
Join up with a couple |
00:31:08 |
take a Wild West circus |
00:31:12 |
Something I've always |
00:31:14 |
I just wondered. |
00:32:40 |
Jonas? |
00:32:42 |
Jonas?! |
00:32:45 |
Jonas, where are you? |
00:32:48 |
Jonas?! |
00:32:51 |
Jonas, what are you doing |
00:32:53 |
I was just... |
00:32:55 |
I told you never to come |
00:32:57 |
I was only looking! |
00:32:58 |
Looking? |
00:32:59 |
There's nothing here anymore. |
00:33:00 |
I want to see my brother. |
00:33:01 |
You can't see him. |
00:33:03 |
Your brother is gone. |
00:33:04 |
The past is gone. |
00:33:05 |
This room has nothing |
00:33:07 |
so get out and don't let me |
00:33:09 |
No! No! I only want to see. |
00:33:11 |
Come on out of here. |
00:33:12 |
Let me go! Let me go! |
00:33:13 |
You little... |
00:33:14 |
Let me go! |
00:33:16 |
Let me go! Let me go! |
00:33:20 |
Someday I'll kill you! |
00:33:22 |
Someday I'll kill you! |
00:33:26 |
Now, now, Mr. Jonas. |
00:33:29 |
Just be quiet. |
00:33:31 |
Take it easy. |
00:33:33 |
Everything's going |
00:33:37 |
Now, just come out of there. |
00:33:40 |
Now, you know you shouldn't |
00:33:43 |
All it does is upset you, |
00:33:45 |
Come on. |
00:33:46 |
I know, Jedediah. |
00:33:48 |
Come on now. |
00:33:49 |
Take it easy. |
00:33:55 |
I know. |
00:34:37 |
Hi. |
00:34:38 |
Hi. |
00:34:40 |
I'm going to change into |
00:34:56 |
Now, tell me |
00:34:58 |
why did you want to come down |
00:35:01 |
Because you were |
00:35:06 |
Oh, let me button it. |
00:35:08 |
I'm not helpless. |
00:35:10 |
I want to do it. |
00:35:12 |
My chest is already buttoned. |
00:35:18 |
How old are you, Nevada? |
00:35:20 |
You want the truth? |
00:35:22 |
Not if a lie |
00:35:24 |
Born 1882. That makes me 43. |
00:35:29 |
You look 30. |
00:35:31 |
How old are you? |
00:35:32 |
20. |
00:35:33 |
You look 30. |
00:35:37 |
We're the same generation. |
00:35:40 |
Ma'am, do you always |
00:35:44 |
It speaks several languages, |
00:35:50 |
Mine's downright illiterate. |
00:35:53 |
By morning, I'll have you |
00:35:58 |
Ma'am... |
00:36:00 |
we're taking different |
00:36:04 |
Let's still end up |
00:36:12 |
No sense of humor. |
00:36:15 |
I came here to forget |
00:36:19 |
and to have a high old time, |
00:36:22 |
I'll sober up a little bit, |
00:36:25 |
get myself a good honest job. |
00:36:27 |
No problems. |
00:36:28 |
No problems. |
00:36:31 |
No trouble. |
00:36:32 |
No trouble. |
00:36:34 |
So I recommend you act your age |
00:36:36 |
and I'll act mine. |
00:36:38 |
That's a wonderful idea. |
00:36:42 |
I haven't acted my age in years. |
00:36:45 |
Ought to be fun. |
00:36:55 |
You know, another time, |
00:36:59 |
you might be just |
00:37:03 |
Sure. |
00:37:07 |
During the next couple |
00:37:10 |
Jonas started writing that |
00:37:14 |
burning the Cord brand |
00:37:16 |
on every factory and rooftop |
00:37:20 |
Nevada's Wild West show |
00:37:24 |
After the Sheriff padlocked it |
00:37:27 |
the only place his kind |
00:37:29 |
was in the movies. |
00:37:31 |
That's all. Right here. |
00:37:35 |
Rina just naturally headed |
00:37:38 |
with the most action-- Paris, |
00:37:41 |
and helped give |
00:37:45 |
They have a great |
00:37:47 |
greased with fancy men, |
00:37:52 |
and absinthe. |
00:38:01 |
Vive la...I |
00:38:09 |
Vitel Vitel Vitel |
00:38:10 |
Vive la France! |
00:38:59 |
We're way out in front, Buzz. |
00:39:02 |
1 hours and 29 minutes, |
00:39:05 |
lf nothing happens, |
00:39:07 |
we've got us another mail |
00:39:10 |
We've got more than that. |
00:39:12 |
We got a new business. |
00:39:13 |
What new business? |
00:39:14 |
Passengers. |
00:39:15 |
Six at a time? |
00:39:16 |
There's no money in that. |
00:39:17 |
20 at a time. |
00:39:18 |
With what airplane, |
00:39:20 |
With the new Cord passenger |
00:39:23 |
Where you going to build it, |
00:39:26 |
We'll buy a factory. |
00:39:27 |
Oh, sure, go buy Lockheed, |
00:39:30 |
Only you better find |
00:39:32 |
Of course, I hear that Winthrop |
00:39:36 |
There is no Winthrop Aviation. |
00:39:39 |
Take a look down there. |
00:39:48 |
What's this thing you have |
00:39:49 |
for painting |
00:39:53 |
I'd paint it higher |
00:39:54 |
but skywriting's |
00:40:05 |
Congratulations. |
00:40:06 |
You've won yourself |
00:40:08 |
I've won something that |
00:40:10 |
a new mail contract. |
00:40:11 |
How do you feel? |
00:40:12 |
Numb. |
00:40:13 |
Richer. |
00:40:14 |
Is it true that you now |
00:40:15 |
Cord Aviation. |
00:40:17 |
Are you going to build |
00:40:18 |
Passenger planes. |
00:40:19 |
A year from now, |
00:40:21 |
coast to coast in 24 hours. |
00:40:22 |
Think of all the sleep you can |
00:40:24 |
Are you trying to corner |
00:40:26 |
There's an idea. |
00:40:27 |
Mr. Cord, why is it |
00:40:29 |
Why aren't you a millionaire? |
00:40:30 |
Just lucky, I guess. |
00:40:31 |
Me, too. |
00:40:33 |
What's his rush? |
00:40:34 |
Its the world |
00:40:38 |
Jonas, you need a week off... |
00:40:41 |
a month off. |
00:40:45 |
Otto Strauss in Berlin |
00:40:47 |
came up with a new high-speed |
00:40:50 |
I cabled him an offer, |
00:40:52 |
That's how much |
00:40:54 |
You better hightail it |
00:40:56 |
and make the arrangements. |
00:40:58 |
We're moving too fast. |
00:40:59 |
By whose clock? |
00:41:01 |
I spend half my time |
00:41:02 |
Which we pay back. |
00:41:04 |
And every year |
00:41:06 |
Its called growth, Mac. |
00:41:07 |
Maybe, but we're |
00:41:10 |
so interdependent, |
00:41:13 |
the others might go with it. |
00:41:15 |
Don't let one go. |
00:41:16 |
Why don't we buy a hotel |
00:41:20 |
That's an idea. |
00:41:21 |
Make a note of that, Mac. |
00:41:28 |
You'd better get some rest. |
00:41:30 |
Sure. |
00:41:32 |
You get right down |
00:41:34 |
Take the first |
00:41:35 |
Tonight? |
00:41:36 |
I haven't even packed a bag. |
00:41:38 |
That's a hundred-dollar suit. |
00:41:40 |
It ought to keep its press. |
00:41:42 |
Jedediah, let Mr. Dalton |
00:41:44 |
all the way back |
00:41:46 |
Right, sir. |
00:42:40 |
I thought this |
00:42:42 |
That's what makes |
00:42:50 |
Mmm. |
00:42:51 |
Now, how in this world |
00:42:59 |
Wingspread 37, fuselage 25... |
00:43:02 |
and hand-rubbed, by the way. |
00:43:04 |
Tail assembly 36, |
00:43:07 |
and never stalls in a dive. |
00:43:09 |
Well, come in for a landing. |
00:43:11 |
Tell me what you want. |
00:43:12 |
Well, to be straightforward |
00:43:15 |
I'm a newspaperman. |
00:43:16 |
You can get arrested |
00:43:19 |
I was using |
00:43:21 |
That's a relief. |
00:43:22 |
What paper? |
00:43:23 |
Oh, it's just a |
00:43:25 |
called the Star Telegram |
00:43:28 |
Show me your press pass. |
00:43:29 |
Oh, no. |
00:43:31 |
You don't get to see that |
00:43:33 |
until after I get the story. |
00:43:34 |
Well, what do |
00:43:36 |
How much money do I have? |
00:43:37 |
How does it feel to run |
00:43:38 |
or what speed record |
00:43:40 |
Heaven's no. |
00:43:42 |
I leave stuffy old things |
00:43:45 |
I'm strictly feature. |
00:43:46 |
I go for the offbeat story. |
00:43:48 |
Like? |
00:43:49 |
Like, what do you |
00:43:53 |
Depends on how lucky I am. |
00:43:55 |
Well, now, who would you |
00:43:59 |
on a desert island with? |
00:44:01 |
The world's greatest |
00:44:05 |
Let me put it this way-- |
00:44:09 |
which do you prefer, |
00:44:13 |
Do I have a choice? |
00:44:15 |
We're known as |
00:44:17 |
Ma'am, you have |
00:44:20 |
an exclusive |
00:44:28 |
Its probably just |
00:44:31 |
I'll disguise my voice. |
00:44:32 |
Mr. Cord's suite. |
00:44:36 |
Who is this? |
00:44:39 |
Its my father. |
00:44:47 |
Jonas Cord. |
00:44:49 |
Who's the dame, Jonas? |
00:44:51 |
Its a body I picked up |
00:44:53 |
Ah! |
00:44:55 |
They said you wanted to see me. |
00:44:58 |
I do. |
00:45:00 |
Okay, I'll be right up. |
00:45:01 |
Uh-uh. I'll be right down. |
00:45:04 |
Well, we can't very well |
00:45:08 |
Okay, I need a shave anyway. |
00:45:10 |
I'll meet you in |
00:45:17 |
You knew he was coming. |
00:45:19 |
Yeah, but I didn't |
00:45:23 |
Yes, you did. |
00:45:24 |
lf you'll excuse me, |
00:45:27 |
and $25,000. |
00:45:28 |
Is that all, Jonas? |
00:45:33 |
Yes, that's all, Monica. |
00:45:35 |
Did you come here thinking |
00:45:38 |
Jonas... |
00:45:44 |
Try to do it nicely. |
00:45:46 |
I mean, give him something |
00:45:50 |
lf he doesn't try |
00:45:54 |
Jonas. |
00:45:55 |
Do you need him, Monica? |
00:45:57 |
No. |
00:46:00 |
I did when I was little, |
00:46:02 |
but he never had |
00:46:05 |
And now I've got my own |
00:46:08 |
and you. |
00:46:10 |
What else do I need? |
00:46:12 |
Well, you see |
00:46:14 |
I need another $10,000. |
00:46:16 |
What happened to all the money |
00:46:18 |
you got when you sold the stock? |
00:46:19 |
Well, it's gone. |
00:46:20 |
Creditors, ex-wives, judgments. |
00:46:22 |
You know how much I owed. |
00:46:23 |
Amos, your contract |
00:46:26 |
for advances like this. |
00:46:27 |
I know, but this is important. |
00:46:31 |
Won't happen again, I promise. |
00:46:33 |
Its... it's for Monica. |
00:46:36 |
Monica? |
00:46:37 |
What about her? |
00:46:39 |
Well, I want to send her to her |
00:46:42 |
She's getting too much |
00:46:45 |
She's seeing some |
00:46:49 |
and... well, he's |
00:46:53 |
Do you know who he is? |
00:46:56 |
I wish I did. |
00:46:58 |
I'd kill him |
00:47:00 |
A nice, sweet, innocent |
00:47:06 |
I've got to get |
00:47:08 |
You ever talk to her? |
00:47:10 |
I've tried, but you know |
00:47:13 |
Give them everything |
00:47:16 |
Hmm. You could try |
00:47:18 |
What the hell makes you |
00:47:23 |
Wait till you get |
00:47:28 |
Now, what about |
00:47:30 |
Its important to me |
00:47:32 |
All right, I'll give |
00:47:36 |
As a matter of fact, |
00:47:42 |
on one condition. |
00:47:44 |
Why sure. Sure, |
00:47:47 |
I want your resignation. |
00:47:56 |
You mean... from |
00:48:01 |
From Cord Aviation. |
00:48:04 |
But I founded the company! |
00:48:06 |
I can help you make it grow. |
00:48:09 |
Take the money, Amos. |
00:48:10 |
No! |
00:48:12 |
No, that, that factory is me. |
00:48:15 |
I laid out every machine, |
00:48:20 |
Take the money, Amos. |
00:48:22 |
Like hell I'll take it. |
00:48:25 |
I won't sell my life |
00:48:30 |
lf you spend it carefully, |
00:48:33 |
it'll keep you in booze |
00:48:36 |
Oh, Jonas. |
00:48:40 |
Please. |
00:48:42 |
One day you'll need help, too. |
00:48:46 |
lf I do, I won't bargain |
00:48:50 |
as my only daughter to get it. |
00:49:29 |
Did he take it? |
00:49:31 |
Yes. |
00:49:32 |
It won't last him long. |
00:49:34 |
It should if he's smart. |
00:49:36 |
All he understands |
00:49:39 |
Not people. |
00:49:41 |
A perfect description |
00:49:46 |
No mothers, no home life, |
00:49:47 |
fathers too busy with business. |
00:49:49 |
You know, when you |
00:49:51 |
we're really very much alike. |
00:49:56 |
But you're prettier. |
00:49:59 |
But you're more exciting. |
00:50:09 |
What are your plans, Monica? |
00:50:11 |
Plans? |
00:50:12 |
I don't know. Play? |
00:50:13 |
Burn the candle at both ends |
00:50:15 |
while I still got something |
00:50:17 |
Who knows? |
00:50:18 |
Maybe like my father |
00:50:19 |
I'll get paid off one day |
00:50:21 |
and disappear into the woodwork. |
00:50:23 |
Unless you find somebody. |
00:50:25 |
I already have. |
00:50:28 |
But what can a gold miner |
00:50:30 |
except maybe a pretty pan |
00:50:31 |
and even that tarnishes fast. |
00:50:37 |
What's the wildest thing |
00:50:40 |
I was hoping |
00:50:44 |
You know all the answers |
00:50:46 |
to interest a man, don't you? |
00:50:47 |
No. Only when I'm lucky enough |
00:50:50 |
to get the right questions. |
00:50:53 |
Go ahead. Ask me something. |
00:50:56 |
Something I can't answer. |
00:51:00 |
Go on. I dare you. |
00:51:10 |
-Good-bye. |
00:51:15 |
Sorry. |
00:51:16 |
Congratulations. |
00:51:18 |
Cold? |
00:51:19 |
Mm, scared. |
00:51:20 |
I can't believe it happened. |
00:51:23 |
What do I tell'em, mister? |
00:51:25 |
Back to the airport. |
00:51:26 |
What'd you like to see |
00:51:29 |
Lots of lovely ceilings. |
00:51:42 |
Merci beaucoup. |
00:52:21 |
Taxi! Taxi! Taxi. |
00:52:34 |
Excuse me. |
00:52:35 |
This is probably |
00:52:38 |
You're not by any chance |
00:52:40 |
This is probably a foolish |
00:52:46 |
Forget-me-nots. |
00:52:48 |
You're strictly long-stemmed, |
00:52:51 |
Well, they're lovely anyway. |
00:52:54 |
Nevada said |
00:52:57 |
I was expecting to meet |
00:52:59 |
Well, on the way into town |
00:53:00 |
I'll give you |
00:53:02 |
I think I've already had one. |
00:53:05 |
Well, this way, please, |
00:53:11 |
All aboard! |
00:53:17 |
My, my. |
00:53:20 |
This is the first 12-cylinder |
00:53:23 |
Fabulous, isn't it? |
00:53:24 |
Designed it myself. |
00:53:25 |
Whenever Nevada Smith |
00:53:27 |
they know he's somebody |
00:53:29 |
Just think what you |
00:53:31 |
for Abraham Lincoln. |
00:53:36 |
How about this interior? |
00:53:37 |
Just run your hand |
00:53:39 |
Isn't that nice? |
00:53:40 |
Feel like I've been |
00:53:42 |
Showmanship-- public eats it up. |
00:53:44 |
After all, Nevada Smith's |
00:53:45 |
just about the most important |
00:53:47 |
Kids all over the country |
00:53:49 |
He does all his own |
00:53:55 |
Tell me something. |
00:53:56 |
Mm-hmm. |
00:53:57 |
Who are you? |
00:53:58 |
Oh, now, honey, |
00:54:00 |
I'm Dan Pierce. |
00:54:03 |
I'm Nevada's agent, |
00:54:05 |
Yes, I-I get him pictures, |
00:54:09 |
and, well, handle him, |
00:54:12 |
I get ten percent. |
00:54:13 |
That is, of everything |
00:54:15 |
Let me ask you, |
00:54:18 |
Pierce. Dan Pierce. |
00:54:21 |
Do you handle everybody, |
00:54:24 |
Only those who show |
00:54:27 |
Here, I'll trade these |
00:54:35 |
lf we get arrested |
00:54:36 |
I hope they put us |
00:54:39 |
Do the kids know |
00:54:41 |
Oh, no. No, |
00:54:43 |
on personal appearances. |
00:54:44 |
You see, Nevada never drinks |
00:54:47 |
and he never kisses |
00:54:48 |
I guess that's the real |
00:54:51 |
a cowboy star. |
00:54:59 |
Here, I saved |
00:55:03 |
Well, thanks. |
00:55:06 |
Say, do you mind |
00:55:09 |
a rather personal question? |
00:55:11 |
Not at all. |
00:55:13 |
What is your, uh, relationship |
00:55:15 |
Oh, nothing important. |
00:55:19 |
I'm going to marry him. |
00:55:55 |
Reach! |
00:55:56 |
Don't shoot. |
00:55:59 |
Innocent? |
00:56:00 |
I thought you were |
00:56:02 |
Nevada. |
00:56:05 |
Oh, Nevada! |
00:56:09 |
Welcome home, Rina. |
00:56:12 |
Nobody in the world |
00:56:15 |
The money, tickets, love, |
00:56:18 |
Robin Hood |
00:56:21 |
Are those guns loaded? |
00:56:23 |
Let's see. |
00:56:24 |
Oh! |
00:56:26 |
Blanks. |
00:56:27 |
Now I'll ride off |
00:56:28 |
if I can find |
00:56:30 |
What's your hurry, |
00:56:32 |
Isn't there |
00:56:34 |
a lonesome widow |
00:56:37 |
As a matter of fact, |
00:56:38 |
Got any buttermilk? |
00:56:39 |
Buttermilk? |
00:56:40 |
Whatever happened |
00:56:43 |
dance hall girls? |
00:56:44 |
That's the villains. |
00:56:46 |
I'm strictly a hero. |
00:56:47 |
I can believe it. |
00:56:50 |
That outfit, this house |
00:56:52 |
that car of yours. |
00:56:55 |
I just try to act out |
00:56:58 |
purity over passion, |
00:57:01 |
But evil can be fun. |
00:57:02 |
Oh, not when Nevada rides. |
00:57:05 |
Killing, yes, but kissing, no. |
00:57:10 |
How did it all happen? |
00:57:12 |
Oh, I joined a Wild West show |
00:57:16 |
I became an extra, did stunts |
00:57:17 |
and people started |
00:57:22 |
and here I am. |
00:57:23 |
Do you like it? |
00:57:25 |
Yes, I do. Its fun. |
00:57:28 |
Nobody gets hurt, |
00:57:31 |
Do you ever see Jonas? |
00:57:34 |
Talk about success. |
00:57:36 |
There's a man who's going |
00:57:43 |
You can't ride, fly, |
00:57:47 |
make a phone call, |
00:57:51 |
that Jonas doesn't have |
00:57:54 |
But you never see him? |
00:57:56 |
No. In the same town, |
00:58:03 |
You know he's married? |
00:58:07 |
I didn't. |
00:58:08 |
I heard he spent his honeymoon |
00:58:10 |
going from one of his factories |
00:58:13 |
making new business deals |
00:58:18 |
Something borrowed, |
00:58:21 |
Poor girl. |
00:58:24 |
So, let's forget him. |
00:58:27 |
Its the hero's night off. |
00:58:30 |
And for once, he's going |
00:58:34 |
be properly grateful. |
00:58:39 |
Properly? |
00:58:41 |
Not if I know the widow, |
00:58:43 |
and I do. |
00:58:46 |
Can you really forget Jonas? |
00:58:50 |
Jonas who? |
00:58:52 |
The only Jonas I ever heard of |
00:58:54 |
was swallowed by a whale. |
00:58:56 |
Its the only thing |
00:58:57 |
to take his ego. |
00:58:58 |
to take his ego. |
00:58:59 |
lf my calculations |
00:59:01 |
we should be able |
00:59:03 |
in addition to the |
00:59:05 |
at a cruising speed |
00:59:06 |
Should be able |
00:59:08 |
before refueling, |
00:59:10 |
Fly from here to New York |
00:59:12 |
I don't believe it. |
00:59:13 |
What would it cost |
00:59:15 |
400-$500,000. |
00:59:16 |
A half a million bucks |
00:59:18 |
Who do you think we are, |
00:59:20 |
You guys are nuts. |
00:59:21 |
We'll never make |
00:59:23 |
First-class passage, |
00:59:26 |
with compartment, meals |
00:59:29 |
and takes four full days. |
00:59:31 |
This plane can carry passengers |
00:59:33 |
at the same cost in one day |
00:59:36 |
Build it. |
00:59:38 |
As stockholder who owns |
00:59:41 |
that's me-- |
00:59:42 |
Cord Chemicals owns |
00:59:44 |
and also holds over |
00:59:46 |
in mortgages |
00:59:48 |
most of which are |
00:59:50 |
You want to foreclose now, |
00:59:56 |
You're a great pilot, Buzz. |
00:59:57 |
You'd risk your life with |
00:59:59 |
Now don't freeze up |
01:00:00 |
when I throw |
01:00:06 |
I should |
01:00:08 |
I should have learned |
01:00:09 |
when I lost that Waco to you |
01:00:11 |
in a poker game. |
01:00:12 |
Let me gamble the money. |
01:00:14 |
I'll make you rich. |
01:00:16 |
Fate it, shake'em and roll. |
01:00:17 |
They told me this was |
01:00:20 |
Why, Mrs. Cord, good evening. |
01:00:22 |
Mr. Morrissey, Buzz. |
01:00:23 |
Hi, Monica. |
01:00:24 |
What brings you down here? |
01:00:25 |
Oh, I don't know. |
01:00:26 |
The dishes were all done |
01:00:29 |
I'll have these duplicated |
01:00:31 |
Don't let me break up |
01:00:33 |
No, we were through. |
01:00:34 |
I'll think I'll go home |
01:00:36 |
in case we lose it. |
01:00:37 |
Go home and order a silk one. |
01:00:39 |
As soon as we finish |
01:00:40 |
we're going to start |
01:00:42 |
40 passengers, |
01:00:46 |
That's what I was |
01:00:49 |
Good night, all. |
01:00:51 |
Oh, good night, |
01:00:54 |
Good night. |
01:00:58 |
The car's outside, darling. |
01:01:00 |
Want a ride home? |
01:01:01 |
Mm, I'd like to... |
01:01:02 |
Oh, good. |
01:01:03 |
...but I have to go |
01:01:05 |
Get them started |
01:01:07 |
Tonight? |
01:01:08 |
Yeah. |
01:01:09 |
I have to fly to Washington. |
01:01:13 |
I'm building a plane to carry |
01:01:15 |
and I haven't even got |
01:01:17 |
Ready to go? |
01:01:19 |
Not this time, Jonas. |
01:01:22 |
Why not? |
01:01:23 |
Why me? |
01:01:25 |
Only bride I know |
01:01:28 |
at 5,000 feet, |
01:01:29 |
who's always airsick |
01:01:33 |
I am an earthling. |
01:01:35 |
Haven't you noticed? |
01:01:36 |
Lovely valleys, |
01:01:40 |
Then cut your motor. |
01:01:43 |
Come in. Have fun. |
01:01:46 |
I thought we had fun. |
01:01:48 |
In between oxygen masks, |
01:01:53 |
You really must learn |
01:01:56 |
to take one thing |
01:01:59 |
For example, take me. |
01:02:02 |
Any time, any place. |
01:02:06 |
Home, now. |
01:02:08 |
I can't. |
01:02:10 |
You sure? |
01:02:21 |
Yeah? |
01:02:25 |
Put her on. |
01:02:27 |
Its my father's widow. |
01:02:30 |
Hello, Rina. |
01:02:32 |
I thought you were in Europe. |
01:02:34 |
Yes, I did. |
01:02:37 |
We all were. |
01:02:40 |
What kind of trouble? |
01:02:42 |
Hold it, hold it. |
01:02:44 |
Look, where can I |
01:02:47 |
I'll see you there |
01:02:50 |
Come on, I'll drop you off |
01:02:52 |
A minute ago, |
01:02:54 |
could have kept you |
01:02:57 |
The money vultures |
01:03:01 |
Oh. |
01:03:17 |
My name's Cord. |
01:03:18 |
Where's the commissary? |
01:03:20 |
Straight ahead, Mr. Cord. |
01:03:59 |
Hello, Rina. |
01:04:03 |
Hello, Jonas. |
01:04:06 |
This is Mr. Ellis, the director. |
01:04:09 |
How do you do? |
01:04:10 |
Mr. Cord. |
01:04:11 |
lf you'll excuse us |
01:04:13 |
Sure. |
01:04:33 |
Congratulations. |
01:04:35 |
Your bride's |
01:04:37 |
You said Nevada |
01:04:40 |
How much trouble? |
01:04:42 |
Two million dollars worth. |
01:04:44 |
I heard he was doing great, |
01:04:47 |
He was, but... |
01:04:50 |
Well, Nevada wanted to make |
01:04:53 |
Put up everything he owned |
01:04:57 |
Then something went wrong |
01:04:58 |
and they don't want |
01:05:00 |
Is it a stinker? |
01:05:02 |
I don't really know. |
01:05:05 |
They told him |
01:05:07 |
would only play |
01:05:09 |
Now the bank's |
01:05:12 |
and that big operator |
01:05:14 |
won't advance |
01:05:17 |
I see. |
01:05:19 |
Jonas, you've got to help him. |
01:05:22 |
I haven't got to do anything. |
01:05:23 |
One time you wanted something |
01:05:24 |
and he gave it to you. |
01:05:26 |
His Cord Chemical stock? |
01:05:28 |
It didn't cost him $2 million. |
01:05:30 |
What's it worth now? |
01:05:35 |
Close. |
01:05:37 |
Rina and Mr. Ellis |
01:05:40 |
Max Sand. |
01:05:41 |
The going away present |
01:05:45 |
I put it in a script. |
01:05:47 |
Wait a minute. |
01:05:48 |
Something, uh... |
01:05:52 |
Its a private joke. |
01:05:53 |
Why did you withdraw |
01:05:56 |
Because he's a thieving, |
01:05:58 |
Please, please, |
01:06:00 |
and not personalities. |
01:06:01 |
Anger is for fools. |
01:06:02 |
You call ruining |
01:06:04 |
I'm not ruining anybody's life. |
01:06:05 |
This is gambling-- some days |
01:06:07 |
You're the richest loser |
01:06:09 |
Look at him, the biggest |
01:06:11 |
-Biggest cowboy star... |
01:06:12 |
I make other pictures, |
01:06:14 |
Art pictures that |
01:06:16 |
They add dignity and culture |
01:06:18 |
They add three starlets |
01:06:20 |
I don't have to listen |
01:06:22 |
Listen, let's sit down. |
01:06:24 |
Let's sit down. |
01:06:29 |
Now, why did you withdraw |
01:06:34 |
Talking pictures, that's why. |
01:06:36 |
I can't sell The Renegade's Coat |
01:06:38 |
Why didn't you make |
01:06:41 |
I didn't think sound |
01:06:43 |
Who did? |
01:06:44 |
What happens to the picture now? |
01:06:46 |
You just throw it |
01:06:48 |
Maybe we can salvage |
01:06:51 |
South America, |
01:06:54 |
It still leaves Nevada |
01:06:57 |
My heart bleeds |
01:06:59 |
Oh, I think |
01:07:01 |
Take it easy, Dan, |
01:07:03 |
Well, you didn't ask to |
01:07:06 |
Mr. Cord, if you'll back Nevada |
01:07:09 |
won't be able |
01:07:10 |
Now we can't let him get away |
01:07:13 |
Well... |
01:07:15 |
Go easy making up your mind, |
01:07:17 |
You could blow the whole bundle. |
01:07:19 |
Nevada, don't start talking him |
01:07:21 |
Mr. Cord, I agree with Nevada. |
01:07:25 |
What do you know about |
01:07:27 |
Nothing, |
01:07:30 |
How many talking pictures |
01:07:35 |
One. |
01:07:38 |
I'll take the shot, Nevada, |
01:07:42 |
it'll be strictly my picture. |
01:07:44 |
I give the orders |
01:07:46 |
including you. |
01:07:48 |
If I'm going to lose a hand, |
01:07:50 |
the least I want to do |
01:07:52 |
Your father's favorite saying. |
01:07:55 |
Sorry I used it. |
01:07:57 |
Well? |
01:07:58 |
Its a deal. |
01:08:01 |
Don't think you've caught |
01:08:03 |
By the time we finish |
01:08:05 |
you're going to earn your 10º/º |
01:08:07 |
First, line up |
01:08:10 |
I want to see them. |
01:08:11 |
And second, get the writers in. |
01:08:13 |
We're going to start |
01:08:15 |
What's the matter with it? |
01:08:16 |
No women. |
01:08:18 |
In the real West, |
01:08:19 |
I heard there were |
01:08:22 |
The kind men |
01:08:24 |
robbed banks to buy. |
01:08:26 |
The kind the real Max Sand |
01:08:29 |
Its time somebody |
01:08:31 |
back to the grownups. |
01:08:32 |
Anything else, Mr. Cord? |
01:08:35 |
Mr. Norman, you'll |
01:08:38 |
Get the best sound man |
01:08:42 |
And find a cameraman |
01:08:43 |
who'd rather photograph |
01:08:45 |
and a dress designer |
01:08:47 |
And, Nevada, |
01:08:50 |
Go out |
01:08:52 |
Hello? |
01:08:53 |
Yes, Mr. Cord is here. |
01:08:55 |
Oh, just a moment. |
01:08:58 |
Your wife. |
01:09:00 |
Excuse me, gentlemen. |
01:09:06 |
Yes? |
01:09:07 |
Now, don't tell me that was |
01:09:10 |
As a matter of fact, |
01:09:12 |
A voice like that... I suppose |
01:09:16 |
reminiscing about dad |
01:09:19 |
Monica, what do you want? |
01:09:21 |
You, of course. |
01:09:23 |
Darling, |
01:09:27 |
You know we have some |
01:09:30 |
I'm on my way |
01:09:31 |
I'll get in touch |
01:09:36 |
Trouble in paradise? |
01:09:43 |
Places, please! |
01:09:45 |
Quiet! |
01:09:47 |
Starting position! |
01:09:50 |
Sound ready! |
01:09:55 |
Interlock. |
01:09:58 |
Interlock okay. |
01:10:00 |
All right, roller! |
01:10:03 |
Quiet, please! |
01:10:05 |
Quiet. Action. |
01:10:09 |
I run a pretty big place here. |
01:10:12 |
Downstairs there's several |
01:10:15 |
Upstairs we provide other, |
01:10:19 |
With so much money, |
01:10:22 |
under one roof, |
01:10:23 |
there's some kind of |
01:10:25 |
I need a bodyguard. |
01:10:27 |
To replace the one |
01:10:29 |
Well, uh, I hoped |
01:10:33 |
But, uh, if you still |
01:10:35 |
I do. |
01:10:38 |
My hours will be your hours, |
01:10:43 |
Uh, you'll collect $100 a month, |
01:10:46 |
And the first time I catch you |
01:10:47 |
sleeping in any other |
01:10:53 |
All right. Cut. Cut. |
01:10:57 |
Mr. Cord, what's wrong? |
01:10:59 |
Her. Get her off the set. |
01:11:01 |
Just a minute, Mr. Cord. |
01:11:04 |
Just a minute here! |
01:11:06 |
What the hell is going on? |
01:11:07 |
She can't be fired. |
01:11:08 |
Miss Randall is the most |
01:11:11 |
That's what you told me |
01:11:13 |
I just had my first lesson |
01:11:15 |
don't listen to you. |
01:11:17 |
Now look here, Miss Randall |
01:11:19 |
You know that. |
01:11:20 |
She must have signed it |
01:11:24 |
Listen, Sonny... |
01:11:26 |
but you owe Miss Randall a |
01:11:29 |
lf that woman |
01:11:32 |
she'd have to pay me. |
01:11:41 |
Oh, Bernie-cuns! |
01:11:43 |
Oh... |
01:11:44 |
Bernie, baby... |
01:11:46 |
Get away. Get away! |
01:11:48 |
I'll give you five minutes |
01:11:50 |
or I'll close down this picture |
01:11:52 |
and hit you with the biggest |
01:11:54 |
Mr. Cord... |
01:11:57 |
Mr. Cord! |
01:12:00 |
I'll fix you for this. |
01:12:02 |
I'm not fooling. |
01:12:03 |
One of these days, I'll fix you. |
01:12:06 |
You'll see... someday... |
01:12:08 |
someday I'll fix you. |
01:12:09 |
Get of my way! |
01:12:10 |
I'll fix you! |
01:12:16 |
Excuse me. |
01:12:20 |
Sorry, no dice. |
01:12:21 |
Marion Davies is working. |
01:12:22 |
Look, I've called everybody. |
01:12:24 |
Garbo's agent won't |
01:12:26 |
Sally Eilers, Ranee Adoree, |
01:12:28 |
all of them, tied up. |
01:12:29 |
Everybody seems |
01:12:31 |
"occupied" at the moment. |
01:12:33 |
Why? |
01:12:35 |
Thought you might be hungry, |
01:12:42 |
Would you like |
01:12:44 |
What do you got? |
01:12:45 |
Oh, tuna, ham and |
01:12:47 |
-Thanks. |
01:12:48 |
Say, I've got an idea. |
01:12:50 |
Maybe I should get |
01:12:51 |
and start looking |
01:12:52 |
We've got to have |
01:12:54 |
Everyday we don't shoot, |
01:12:57 |
What do you think? |
01:12:58 |
Rina, come here. |
01:13:00 |
Look, I know a little... |
01:13:05 |
You're going to test |
01:13:08 |
Mr. Cord, |
01:13:09 |
Oh, don't be ridiculous. |
01:13:11 |
I'm no actress. |
01:13:12 |
Come to think of it, |
01:13:17 |
You never said an honest line |
01:13:19 |
Don't talk that way to her. |
01:13:23 |
You call it, Nevada-- |
01:13:26 |
she tests, |
01:13:50 |
Hi, Jonas. |
01:13:53 |
Well, I know it's been |
01:13:55 |
since you've seen me, |
01:13:56 |
but you haven't forgotten |
01:13:58 |
what your wife looks like, |
01:14:00 |
How are you, Monica? |
01:14:02 |
Why don't you get in, |
01:14:03 |
and I'll tell you all about it |
01:14:23 |
Where are we? |
01:14:24 |
I thought we were |
01:14:26 |
No questions, please. |
01:14:27 |
Out. |
01:14:40 |
Welcome home, Mr. Jonas. |
01:14:42 |
Did he say home? |
01:14:44 |
Come on. |
01:14:51 |
Merry Christmas. |
01:14:53 |
It can't be Christmas yet. |
01:14:56 |
Oh, it is here. |
01:14:58 |
Monica, did you buy this place? |
01:15:01 |
No. |
01:15:03 |
I only leased it for six months |
01:15:04 |
so you could have the pleasure |
01:15:07 |
Come on, |
01:15:13 |
The living room. |
01:15:16 |
41 by 21 . |
01:15:19 |
Painting from a French palace, |
01:15:21 |
fireplace of italian marble |
01:15:24 |
and hand-woven Persian rugs. |
01:15:27 |
Out there are four acres |
01:15:31 |
avocados, assorted flowers, |
01:15:36 |
barbecue and tennis court. |
01:15:40 |
This way. |
01:15:42 |
The den. |
01:15:44 |
To improve your mind, |
01:15:48 |
and work if you must. |
01:16:01 |
Grownup's playroom. |
01:16:07 |
For guests. |
01:16:08 |
Or if anyone unexpected |
01:16:11 |
we can always just paint it |
01:16:15 |
Monica, you're not |
01:16:21 |
Well, not that I know of, |
01:16:25 |
I mean, look |
01:16:27 |
Besides, most accidents |
01:16:36 |
Well? |
01:16:45 |
I've seen enough plays |
01:16:48 |
when a man has to pour |
01:16:51 |
before he answers. |
01:16:52 |
The heroine is about to be |
01:16:57 |
Monica, why this? |
01:16:59 |
For all the normal reasons. |
01:17:01 |
Home is where people live. |
01:17:04 |
You and I were hotel babies. |
01:17:06 |
The stuffy elevators, |
01:17:08 |
convention drunks and cigarette |
01:17:11 |
I thought we both missed this. |
01:17:13 |
Needed it. |
01:17:15 |
What I need is the most freedom |
01:17:23 |
Why did you get married? |
01:17:25 |
Because I thought you |
01:17:30 |
Hotels are |
01:17:33 |
Room service like that-- |
01:17:36 |
No trees to prune, |
01:17:38 |
Girls sent up |
01:17:41 |
Well, don't forget, |
01:17:48 |
Oh. |
01:17:58 |
Jonas, we can do |
01:18:01 |
we do in your hotel suite. |
01:18:03 |
Only with more privacy... |
01:18:05 |
more meaning. |
01:18:08 |
Give it a try. Please. |
01:18:11 |
More than a playgirl, |
01:18:14 |
And mother? |
01:18:15 |
Yes. |
01:18:20 |
lf you want. |
01:18:22 |
I don't want. |
01:18:25 |
Excuse me, I have to get down |
01:18:27 |
to the factory. |
01:18:28 |
Can't that airplane wait? |
01:18:30 |
I don't like to be |
01:18:32 |
But I planned dinner here. |
01:18:35 |
Tomorrow morning I'll be |
01:18:37 |
working on the picture. |
01:18:38 |
The studio days |
01:18:40 |
You might not see me |
01:18:42 |
What do you want me to do |
01:18:46 |
Get a divorce. |
01:18:52 |
Jonas, you... can't mean that. |
01:18:55 |
Afraid I do. |
01:18:58 |
Just like that? |
01:19:00 |
Just like that. |
01:19:11 |
Mrs. Cord, when would |
01:19:15 |
Jedediah, you've |
01:19:19 |
a long time, haven't you? |
01:19:21 |
Since he was born. |
01:19:24 |
Tell me about him. |
01:19:27 |
Mr. Jonas is not |
01:19:30 |
Jedediah... Mr. Jonas |
01:19:36 |
but I'm trying. |
01:19:38 |
And I'll try. |
01:19:40 |
Please sit down. |
01:19:43 |
Thank you. |
01:19:50 |
To be honest, I wasn't sure |
01:19:53 |
what kind of feeling |
01:19:56 |
But now, I have some idea |
01:19:58 |
so I'd like to tell you |
01:20:00 |
what nobody else knows |
01:20:03 |
I've got to eat my words, |
01:20:04 |
Rina's great. A natural. |
01:20:05 |
In fact, she's fabulous. |
01:20:06 |
Greatest screen test |
01:20:08 |
She makes the Old West |
01:20:09 |
look like a new girl in town. |
01:20:10 |
Well, she's a long way |
01:20:11 |
from being an |
01:20:13 |
Thank you. |
01:20:14 |
But she does have |
01:20:16 |
that rare quality |
01:20:19 |
Commonly called S-E-X. |
01:20:20 |
Oh, thank you. |
01:20:22 |
We can teach her the rest. |
01:20:24 |
Fine. |
01:20:26 |
Thank you, Mr. Ellis. |
01:20:27 |
See you on the set tomorrow. |
01:20:29 |
Good night. |
01:20:30 |
Good night. |
01:20:31 |
Walk me to the car, |
01:20:33 |
Sure thing. |
01:20:34 |
I can't do everything. |
01:20:36 |
Building a plane-- |
01:20:37 |
trying to run eight |
01:20:40 |
I want you to come |
01:20:42 |
You really know the business. |
01:20:44 |
You know when to fight |
01:20:46 |
Well, my agency keeps |
01:20:48 |
Sell it. |
01:20:51 |
If this picture goes, |
01:20:53 |
I'll give you ten percent |
01:20:55 |
and stock options later. |
01:20:56 |
Well, I don't know... |
01:20:57 |
what about |
01:20:59 |
As big as you need. |
01:21:00 |
Money's the one thing |
01:21:01 |
nobody talks back |
01:21:03 |
You can live on the expenses |
01:21:05 |
and bank your salary. |
01:21:07 |
By noon tomorrow I'll be |
01:21:11 |
and hip deep |
01:21:13 |
Now that you're |
01:21:15 |
I'd like you to do |
01:21:17 |
Anything you say, boss. |
01:21:18 |
We'll get the writers |
01:21:19 |
to go over |
01:21:21 |
Build up Rina's part. |
01:21:22 |
Well, where does |
01:21:25 |
What do you care? |
01:21:26 |
You're not working |
01:21:30 |
There's a certain logic |
01:21:32 |
By the way, have you got |
01:21:35 |
One of the best. |
01:21:36 |
Good. Line me up |
01:21:37 |
But I... I thought |
01:21:40 |
I want girls to take out, |
01:21:42 |
Get my name in the columns. |
01:21:43 |
Pictures whenever you can. |
01:21:45 |
Girls, names, pictures. |
01:21:46 |
You're the boss. |
01:21:48 |
Close the door, will you, Dan? |
01:21:51 |
Oh, certainly. |
01:21:52 |
Let's go, Jedediah. |
01:21:55 |
One more thing-- fire Ellis. |
01:21:58 |
Well, who's going |
01:22:01 |
I am. |
01:22:02 |
I just discovered I know as much |
01:22:24 |
Hold it, Mr. Cord, |
01:22:26 |
Thank you. |
01:22:27 |
Still... good. |
01:22:33 |
The work looks all right... |
01:22:35 |
what there is of it. |
01:22:37 |
We're more than a week |
01:22:40 |
What happened? |
01:22:41 |
Well, I, uh... |
01:22:44 |
Maybe I was wrong |
01:22:46 |
Maybe I should have |
01:22:48 |
Cut it out, will you, Morrissey? |
01:22:49 |
The only thing wrong |
01:22:52 |
Every bolt, |
01:22:54 |
has to have your personal |
01:22:56 |
You act as if we've never |
01:22:59 |
Only the great Jonas Cord |
01:23:02 |
You expect us to work |
01:23:05 |
and all night for you? |
01:23:07 |
Well, Jonas Cord |
01:23:09 |
but Morrissey and me |
01:23:11 |
who get annoyed, |
01:23:14 |
You just wasted another minute. |
01:23:16 |
I expect you to make that week |
01:23:21 |
Now, if you can't do it, I will. |
01:23:22 |
You'll never do it playing |
01:23:26 |
and a cavalry officer |
01:23:28 |
Let's get back |
01:23:32 |
Hello, Jonas. |
01:23:34 |
Hello. |
01:23:36 |
Do you have time for your wife? |
01:23:38 |
No. |
01:23:39 |
Make time. |
01:23:41 |
I'm going to talk to you, Jonas, |
01:23:43 |
and I'll do it |
01:23:45 |
if that's what you want. |
01:23:47 |
I think I'll get a drink. |
01:24:00 |
We're married. |
01:24:03 |
We live in the same town, |
01:24:06 |
I don't have a home. |
01:24:07 |
They won't even let me |
01:24:10 |
I'm rarely there anyway. |
01:24:12 |
The only time I see you |
01:24:13 |
is in the newspapers |
01:24:15 |
They aren't |
01:24:17 |
Jonas, how much can I take? |
01:24:19 |
There aren't any stress tables |
01:24:22 |
Would you stop talking |
01:24:25 |
Why don't you just... |
01:24:28 |
This makes sense-- I'm busy, |
01:24:32 |
Jonas... |
01:24:33 |
Get out of here! |
01:24:42 |
All right, Jonas. |
01:24:45 |
Go talk to your lawyer. |
01:24:48 |
I don't have a lawyer |
01:24:49 |
and I don't want one. |
01:24:57 |
Good! |
01:24:58 |
Its the Battle of |
01:25:00 |
and the stock market crash |
01:25:02 |
The picture killed them, |
01:25:04 |
Thank you, thank you. |
01:25:05 |
Listen to this, listen, Jonas. |
01:25:07 |
"Excellent". |
01:25:08 |
"Superior". |
01:25:10 |
All the cards are |
01:25:12 |
She's outside. |
01:25:13 |
Yeah, the crowd |
01:25:15 |
They're trying to tear |
01:25:16 |
get her autograph |
01:25:18 |
Jonas, she's the biggest |
01:25:19 |
since the Spanish landed. |
01:25:20 |
Its incredible. |
01:25:21 |
Yeah, all you can smell |
01:25:23 |
You ought to be here. |
01:25:24 |
I don't have to be there, Dan-- |
01:25:26 |
I knew it would happen. |
01:25:27 |
Give her 15 more minutes |
01:25:29 |
then hustle her out of there. |
01:25:31 |
I want her here in my hotel |
01:25:35 |
I don't think I can tear her... |
01:25:36 |
Dan, I don't care. |
01:25:53 |
Hello. |
01:25:56 |
Jonas! |
01:25:59 |
How are you? |
01:26:02 |
Your hotel, 11:30? |
01:26:05 |
I'll be there on the minute. |
01:26:08 |
Good-bye. |
01:26:16 |
Come in. |
01:26:28 |
Signed, sealed and delivered. |
01:26:30 |
Rina Marlowe, the cowboy's |
01:26:35 |
reporting for duty |
01:26:37 |
And overdressed. |
01:26:42 |
The Jonas Cord |
01:26:44 |
We never sleep... |
01:26:47 |
alone. |
01:26:49 |
You're too cheerful about it. |
01:26:52 |
By the way, I told Nevada |
01:26:55 |
Why the hell did you do |
01:26:58 |
Because Nevada and I |
01:27:01 |
I told him I wanted |
01:27:04 |
to give our closest |
01:27:06 |
You can't marry him, |
01:27:09 |
After this picture's released, |
01:27:10 |
you'll be the biggest star |
01:27:12 |
So they tell me. |
01:27:18 |
You've got nothing |
01:27:20 |
I gain a man who helped me once |
01:27:23 |
Making you |
01:27:25 |
I didn't ask you for it! |
01:27:27 |
You even built up my part |
01:27:30 |
while you cut his to the bone. |
01:27:31 |
I didn't see you trying |
01:27:33 |
He's on the booze. |
01:27:34 |
We both know his days |
01:27:36 |
That's why he needs me |
01:27:39 |
Why do you think |
01:27:40 |
I did all this? |
01:27:41 |
As always, just to give |
01:27:44 |
Besides, what do you care |
01:27:47 |
You're already married. |
01:28:01 |
Miss Marlowe, |
01:28:02 |
I'd like you |
01:28:07 |
Monica, this |
01:28:16 |
Would you like a drink or what? |
01:28:21 |
I've seen what |
01:28:25 |
I'll file for divorce |
01:28:44 |
Oh, you dirty, filthy, |
01:28:48 |
You can do better than that. |
01:28:50 |
You are the meanest, cruelest |
01:28:51 |
most loathsome thing |
01:28:53 |
Except for yourself. |
01:28:54 |
Oh... |
01:28:55 |
We belong together. |
01:28:57 |
We're a set. |
01:28:58 |
I promised to marry Nevada. |
01:29:02 |
Who said anything |
01:29:04 |
Oh, you really are |
01:29:06 |
But that's what's always |
01:29:09 |
You're just like me. |
01:29:10 |
You can't make love |
01:29:12 |
We've known that, both of us. |
01:29:14 |
Haven't we? |
01:29:17 |
Oh, yes, yes. |
01:29:20 |
Oh, damn it, yes! |
01:29:26 |
By the authority vested in me |
01:29:28 |
by the State of California |
01:29:30 |
I now pronounce you |
01:29:36 |
You may kiss the bride. |
01:29:42 |
All right, now. |
01:29:44 |
I'll take my ten percent now. |
01:30:10 |
Calling Dr. Kelly. |
01:30:12 |
Calling Dr. Kelly. |
01:30:14 |
Report to superintendent |
01:30:19 |
Jonas. |
01:30:21 |
Hello, Monica. |
01:30:26 |
You know, I heard about |
01:30:28 |
I think |
01:30:30 |
I don't know how |
01:30:32 |
Monica, about the baby... |
01:30:35 |
Did you see her? |
01:30:37 |
Yes. |
01:30:39 |
Isnt she absolutely |
01:30:42 |
I'm no expert on babies. |
01:30:45 |
You can see that she is. |
01:30:49 |
I'm calling her Joanne. |
01:30:52 |
Just a name I liked. |
01:30:56 |
I hope you don't mind. |
01:31:06 |
Whose baby is it? |
01:31:08 |
Its mine, of course. |
01:31:11 |
That's not what I mean. |
01:31:15 |
Who's the father? |
01:31:20 |
You are, Jonas. |
01:31:22 |
I'm not. |
01:31:24 |
But you are. |
01:31:25 |
When I filed for divorce |
01:31:30 |
but I was. |
01:31:31 |
Are you sure? |
01:31:34 |
Sure? |
01:31:38 |
I don't have to prove anything. |
01:31:40 |
I'm the mother, |
01:31:42 |
and that's the way it is, Jonas. |
01:31:46 |
Don't worry |
01:31:49 |
I'm calling her |
01:31:52 |
so you have no worries, |
01:31:54 |
no responsibilities, |
01:31:58 |
Now, get out of here. |
01:32:05 |
Am I listed on the birth |
01:32:08 |
Of course you are. |
01:32:10 |
You expect me to put down |
01:32:19 |
I just wanted to know. |
01:32:22 |
I'm on my way to Europe. |
01:32:24 |
Well, stay there |
01:32:27 |
If you need anything |
01:32:31 |
money for clothes... |
01:32:33 |
nurses... |
01:32:36 |
special teachers... |
01:32:39 |
That baby only needs |
01:32:42 |
'cause you don't have it-- |
01:32:44 |
Faith in yourself, |
01:32:46 |
and faith in the future! |
01:32:48 |
What do you mean? |
01:32:50 |
Oh... |
01:32:57 |
You know exactly what I mean, |
01:33:01 |
Jonas Cord, Jr. |
01:33:17 |
Seven or eight years went by. |
01:33:19 |
The world was crippled |
01:33:21 |
by the Crash |
01:33:23 |
Everyone suffered from it, |
01:33:25 |
He was above it. |
01:33:27 |
We can carry |
01:33:30 |
and one more crew member |
01:33:31 |
and cruise 60 miles |
01:33:33 |
That's with an |
01:33:35 |
How much of an increase? |
01:33:37 |
A thousand miles. |
01:33:38 |
New York's fogged in, |
01:33:40 |
Washington, Philadelphia, |
01:33:43 |
Point that out |
01:33:45 |
You could fire a |
01:33:47 |
without it deviating a degree. |
01:33:50 |
Good prototype for a bomber? |
01:33:53 |
Yeah. |
01:33:54 |
Waist guns, tail guns, |
01:33:57 |
Better than any plane |
01:33:59 |
Get busy. |
01:34:00 |
Knock off a two-engine bomber |
01:34:02 |
and get a four-engine job |
01:34:04 |
Now, look, Jonas. |
01:34:05 |
We're just beginning |
01:34:07 |
There's a war coming. |
01:34:08 |
Which has nothing |
01:34:10 |
Every war's got |
01:34:12 |
One day, three-star generals |
01:34:15 |
like scared ants |
01:34:17 |
What about our overseas |
01:34:19 |
That'll have to wait. |
01:34:23 |
Tell McAllister to come in. |
01:34:28 |
Just keep it steady. |
01:34:30 |
Keep the nose above the horizon. |
01:34:32 |
Don't push on anything. |
01:34:35 |
Morrissey, when we get back, |
01:34:37 |
I've got some sketches |
01:34:40 |
I want to show you, |
01:34:43 |
What enemy? |
01:34:44 |
Time. |
01:34:47 |
Great plane, Jonas. |
01:34:48 |
Years ahead |
01:34:50 |
Thanks. |
01:34:53 |
How much stock do we have |
01:34:57 |
Four or five thousand shares. |
01:34:59 |
I want control. |
01:35:02 |
Start buying. |
01:35:05 |
That's only a hobby for you, |
01:35:07 |
Now, don't argue |
01:35:09 |
Just buy the stock. |
01:35:13 |
You know, |
01:35:15 |
and I've carried them out. |
01:35:16 |
But you've never treated me |
01:35:19 |
and I don't like the feeling. |
01:35:20 |
I'm turning in my badge. |
01:35:21 |
You want more money? |
01:35:23 |
No, I want a rest-- |
01:35:25 |
a vacation from you |
01:35:26 |
and your wild schemes |
01:35:30 |
and from living up in the air |
01:35:34 |
Stick with me |
01:35:37 |
I need you. |
01:35:38 |
What you need |
01:35:41 |
a vacation from yourself. |
01:35:42 |
More than the rest of us, even. |
01:35:45 |
You're about to come apart |
01:35:48 |
Will you buy the stock? |
01:35:52 |
Yes, yes, like always. |
01:35:54 |
Only instead, |
01:35:57 |
in a mental institution, |
01:35:58 |
a whole string of madhouses? |
01:36:00 |
That's where we're |
01:36:02 |
I need some coffee. |
01:36:03 |
You take it, Mac. |
01:36:21 |
Good morning, David. |
01:36:22 |
Good morning. |
01:36:23 |
Stock's gone up |
01:36:25 |
this morning, Uncle Bernie. |
01:36:26 |
How 'bout that, huh? |
01:36:27 |
Well, it excites you? |
01:36:29 |
Well, eight points |
01:36:30 |
Look what you picked up! |
01:36:33 |
David, I'm a fat old elk |
01:36:37 |
a hungry wolf on his trail. |
01:36:39 |
I don't get it. |
01:36:40 |
Stock goes up |
01:36:43 |
Why do people buy things? |
01:36:45 |
So they can own them. |
01:36:48 |
And who wants to own |
01:36:52 |
Jonas...? |
01:36:54 |
Jonas Cord, that's right. |
01:36:56 |
But he can't own the studio. |
01:36:58 |
You have 51% of the stock. |
01:37:00 |
51%! I'd sell it tomorrow |
01:37:04 |
You'd sell? |
01:37:06 |
David, we're a one-star studio. |
01:37:09 |
We always have been. |
01:37:11 |
Now, who's our star |
01:37:14 |
Rina Marlowe. |
01:37:16 |
Rina Marlowe. |
01:37:18 |
A lush, a bottle baby. |
01:37:21 |
Arrested five times |
01:37:24 |
And what it costs to |
01:37:27 |
and to keep it quiet... |
01:37:28 |
Don't ask what it costs. |
01:37:30 |
So, I made the mistake |
01:37:31 |
of calling her on the |
01:37:34 |
and now she won't |
01:37:36 |
How do you like that? |
01:37:38 |
Hmm. Here. |
01:37:40 |
Here's a script. |
01:37:41 |
Blue Goddess. |
01:37:42 |
Its about Africa, |
01:37:45 |
She won't even read it. |
01:37:47 |
Now, without her-- |
01:37:49 |
or someone like her-- |
01:37:51 |
what do you think my 51 º/º |
01:37:55 |
Well, if it's that bad, |
01:38:00 |
David, buying and selling |
01:38:04 |
Its an art in which |
01:38:07 |
including Jonas Cord. |
01:38:09 |
When I sell, I'll pick the time. |
01:38:14 |
You know, |
01:38:17 |
Well, what has that got to do |
01:38:24 |
Here. |
01:38:26 |
Take this script |
01:38:29 |
Maybe she'll read it for you. |
01:38:32 |
Wh... |
01:38:34 |
I-I don't know. D... |
01:38:37 |
Do you think she would? |
01:38:38 |
David, by the thousands |
01:38:44 |
autograph, a lock of hair. |
01:38:47 |
lf they only knew it |
01:38:49 |
all they have to do |
01:38:52 |
they get everything. |
01:38:56 |
Go ahead. |
01:38:57 |
Go, go, go. |
01:39:05 |
So, Uncle Bernie's |
01:39:09 |
Jonas made a mistake |
01:39:12 |
at the studio |
01:39:17 |
What did you say |
01:39:19 |
Uh, David. |
01:39:24 |
"Little David was small... |
01:39:28 |
but, oh, my". |
01:39:33 |
Are you small, but, oh, my? |
01:39:38 |
I... don't exactly... |
01:39:40 |
Jonas hates me. |
01:39:42 |
Oh, well, nobody could hate you, |
01:39:46 |
That's sweet. |
01:39:47 |
Most foolish statements are. |
01:39:52 |
But he also loves me. |
01:39:53 |
Oh, well, of course. |
01:39:55 |
I mean, we all contain the seeds |
01:40:00 |
Oh... |
01:40:03 |
I like intelligent men. |
01:40:06 |
I like men. |
01:40:09 |
Or maybe I hate them. |
01:40:12 |
I'm not always sure. |
01:40:17 |
Are you strong? |
01:40:19 |
Jonas likes to think |
01:40:22 |
he's strong and tough |
01:40:25 |
When he wants to be tough |
01:40:26 |
he goes out |
01:40:28 |
So, he wants Norman Pictures. |
01:40:31 |
When he wants to be bad |
01:40:35 |
So, he wants to buy me. |
01:40:38 |
You know something? |
01:40:39 |
No. |
01:40:42 |
I think he's going to do both. |
01:40:45 |
Well... |
01:40:46 |
lf you'll excuse me, |
01:40:48 |
I... |
01:40:49 |
have to be getting |
01:40:51 |
I-I'm trying to |
01:40:53 |
Ambitious, too? |
01:40:56 |
Well, you've come |
01:40:59 |
I'm something |
01:41:02 |
Oh-oh, really? |
01:41:04 |
Mm-hmm. |
01:41:05 |
Until you learn about people |
01:41:08 |
you don't know anything. |
01:41:09 |
Oh, but I-I just want |
01:41:12 |
not an actor. |
01:41:13 |
Well, how do you think |
01:41:15 |
producers cast pictures, |
01:41:17 |
Well, all right then. |
01:41:19 |
Then you read the script |
01:41:21 |
Oh, I'd like to, |
01:41:22 |
if you'll stay |
01:41:26 |
Mmm. |
01:41:34 |
You know, Jennie, baby, |
01:41:36 |
you've got the world |
01:41:38 |
So I've heard. |
01:41:40 |
Want a drink? |
01:41:41 |
For 200 bucks, I should get |
01:41:44 |
Honey, you can leave |
01:41:47 |
Oh, no, sweetie, don't get sore. |
01:41:49 |
No, seriously, Jennie, |
01:41:51 |
you're nothing short |
01:41:54 |
I just know my job. |
01:41:56 |
Mmm. |
01:41:57 |
You like it? |
01:41:58 |
For God's sakes. |
01:42:00 |
Do I like it? |
01:42:01 |
How did I get started? |
01:42:02 |
You going to ask those |
01:42:05 |
I thought you were |
01:42:07 |
If I really were, |
01:42:08 |
I wouldn't have to be here, |
01:42:11 |
You know, that's the |
01:42:13 |
I ever heard you say. |
01:42:14 |
Every now and then I get weak |
01:42:16 |
It won't happen again. |
01:42:17 |
I'm sure. |
01:42:19 |
Well... here's to Adam and Eve. |
01:42:22 |
They hold the original |
01:42:23 |
but you've certainly |
01:42:26 |
Honey... |
01:42:35 |
You know... |
01:42:40 |
Mmm... |
01:42:43 |
Honey, I got an idea. |
01:42:45 |
Mmm, that wasn't |
01:42:49 |
How would you like |
01:42:52 |
I was once. |
01:42:53 |
Mmm? |
01:42:54 |
All I wore was goose pimples. |
01:42:55 |
Oh, that. |
01:42:57 |
No, I-I mean the kind |
01:43:03 |
...show at the corner bijou. |
01:43:05 |
Oh, now, come on, |
01:43:07 |
I've heard that one before. |
01:43:09 |
I run a strictly |
01:43:12 |
No checks, no promissory notes |
01:43:16 |
no pie in the sky. |
01:43:18 |
Did you ever hear |
01:43:22 |
You ever hear |
01:43:24 |
He's everywhere, |
01:43:26 |
Twice as irritating, |
01:43:28 |
I'm his right-hand man. |
01:43:30 |
The price is still |
01:43:32 |
You're the kind of girl |
01:43:35 |
Monday's open-- |
01:43:36 |
You know, he made a star |
01:43:39 |
Of course, |
01:43:40 |
earmarked for oblivion. |
01:43:42 |
But somebody's got |
01:43:44 |
Mmm, look, |
01:43:46 |
I'll give you $300 |
01:43:48 |
and $750 a week |
01:43:52 |
You know what I am. |
01:43:55 |
Jonas Cord doesn't. |
01:43:57 |
I've got a feeling |
01:44:00 |
that you've got what he likes |
01:44:03 |
Its crazy. |
01:44:05 |
That's what Eve probably |
01:44:07 |
Look what that lead to. |
01:44:08 |
This is a strange world. |
01:44:11 |
Anything is possible. |
01:44:59 |
Is she dead? |
01:45:01 |
Not quite. |
01:45:02 |
She's unconscious. |
01:45:04 |
The doctor didn't give |
01:45:05 |
for her chances |
01:45:08 |
Have you told Jonas |
01:45:10 |
No, I'm afraid to. |
01:45:12 |
That's why I came here first. |
01:45:14 |
I'm trying to work |
01:45:16 |
How could she do this |
01:45:19 |
How could she do it? |
01:45:21 |
Cord wants my studio |
01:45:22 |
more than anything else |
01:45:24 |
When he finds out |
01:45:25 |
I won't have a chance |
01:45:27 |
You know, I never realized |
01:45:28 |
what a cold-blooded... |
01:45:31 |
Now, listen, this is |
01:45:33 |
When she goes, we go. |
01:45:34 |
Now, I can't keep |
01:45:36 |
No. |
01:45:37 |
No, I got to think |
01:45:38 |
and that's me. |
01:45:39 |
Go ahead, laugh. |
01:45:40 |
Its you, too. |
01:45:42 |
Your job dies with Rina. |
01:45:44 |
-I never thought of that. |
01:45:46 |
You get to be |
01:45:48 |
yourself, don't you? |
01:45:50 |
You just shot me |
01:45:53 |
All right, now listen. |
01:45:56 |
Maybe you can fix it |
01:45:59 |
you never have to work |
01:46:03 |
I-I, I don't follow. |
01:46:05 |
Are you sure Jonas doesn't |
01:46:08 |
Yeah, I'm pretty sure. |
01:46:11 |
Do you think you can keep Jonas |
01:46:14 |
for a couple of hours? |
01:46:15 |
Oh, now, wait a minute, Bernie. |
01:46:17 |
Just what kind of a louse |
01:46:18 |
do you think...? |
01:46:19 |
How much was he willing to pay |
01:46:20 |
to buy me out? |
01:46:22 |
I don't know, |
01:46:23 |
All right, I'll start with five. |
01:46:28 |
lf the deal works, |
01:46:29 |
you get 15%. |
01:46:32 |
I get...? |
01:46:34 |
You heard me, 15%. |
01:46:35 |
Now, it's worth it. |
01:46:37 |
I waited a long time |
01:46:42 |
Suppose he...? |
01:46:44 |
Suppose he finds out...? |
01:46:46 |
I mean, about my |
01:46:48 |
Oh, no. |
01:46:50 |
I'd be taking |
01:46:52 |
Listen, it's worth |
01:46:55 |
This way, you come out |
01:46:57 |
Without Rina, |
01:46:59 |
how long do you think |
01:47:01 |
before he fires you? |
01:47:02 |
Come on, get smart. |
01:47:04 |
Suppose he won't meet |
01:47:05 |
Well, see that he does. |
01:47:07 |
15º/º of $5 million. |
01:47:10 |
$750,000. |
01:47:12 |
Yeah. Nice little |
01:47:14 |
Come on, get busy. |
01:47:15 |
I'll pull my lawyers |
01:47:17 |
and draw up two papers |
01:47:18 |
We'll sign yours first. |
01:47:20 |
Bernie... |
01:47:21 |
Yeah, sure. |
01:47:23 |
Good. This is the day |
01:47:24 |
we pluck Jonas Cord's |
01:47:25 |
Now, listen you. |
01:47:26 |
You be at his hotel |
01:47:28 |
Not a minute late. |
01:47:29 |
Sure. Not a minute late. |
01:47:33 |
Yes! |
01:47:41 |
Why this morning, like that? |
01:47:43 |
Well, he's scared. |
01:47:45 |
You know he's had a |
01:47:47 |
and last night |
01:47:49 |
he was on the edge of a third |
01:47:53 |
and he called me. |
01:47:55 |
He wants to retire. |
01:47:56 |
Jonas, you got him |
01:47:58 |
Don't let him get away. |
01:48:00 |
I'll get it. |
01:48:06 |
Hello. |
01:48:07 |
No, he's not at the moment. |
01:48:09 |
I-I really don't know. |
01:48:12 |
That's funny. |
01:48:15 |
Norman's lawyer. |
01:48:16 |
Probably wants |
01:48:19 |
How much does he want? |
01:48:20 |
Five million. |
01:48:22 |
What'll he take? |
01:48:23 |
Well, he wouldn't say. |
01:48:25 |
Guess. |
01:48:26 |
Oh, four... and a half. |
01:48:36 |
Uh, could you hold it |
01:48:40 |
Oh, Mr. Woolf, Mr. Norman. |
01:48:41 |
Come in, won't you, please? |
01:48:43 |
Yes? |
01:48:44 |
Uh, no, no. |
01:48:46 |
No, you can't. |
01:48:48 |
Morning, Mr. Cord. |
01:48:49 |
Hold all calls |
01:48:50 |
for the next half hour. |
01:48:52 |
Hold them anyway. |
01:48:53 |
My nephew, David. |
01:48:55 |
Mr. Cord. |
01:48:56 |
We all finally get together |
01:48:58 |
Oh, here, Bernie, |
01:49:00 |
Excuse me. |
01:49:09 |
So you want to sell |
01:49:14 |
Mr. Cord... |
01:49:18 |
that's a trick |
01:49:20 |
You see, you're at |
01:49:24 |
Me, I'm an early riser. |
01:49:27 |
I figure it gives me |
01:49:30 |
Besides... |
01:49:34 |
I could be dead in 24 hours. |
01:49:38 |
So, not another minute |
01:49:41 |
in this business. |
01:49:42 |
How much? |
01:49:43 |
Well, it's a sacrifice. |
01:49:46 |
I have to-I have |
01:49:50 |
My family... |
01:49:51 |
How much? |
01:49:56 |
Take it off my hands-- |
01:49:58 |
It pains me to see you |
01:50:01 |
I'll give you three. |
01:50:02 |
That's a million below |
01:50:05 |
Which I helped to make. |
01:50:07 |
All right. |
01:50:10 |
Listen, four-and-a-half. |
01:50:12 |
Three-and-a-half. |
01:50:14 |
Four. |
01:50:17 |
Three-and-a-half. |
01:50:18 |
And if you say four again, |
01:50:20 |
I'll go back to three. |
01:50:22 |
Mr. Cord... |
01:50:24 |
you're cheating a sick man. |
01:50:28 |
All right. |
01:50:30 |
All right. |
01:50:33 |
Here's two letters |
01:50:35 |
Just fill in the amount |
01:50:39 |
I've already signed it. |
01:51:02 |
Witness that. |
01:51:25 |
David. |
01:51:28 |
I told you to hold the calls. |
01:51:32 |
Sorry, wrong number. |
01:51:36 |
Thank you. |
01:51:38 |
Thanks. |
01:51:47 |
Well... |
01:51:50 |
that's it, Mr. Cord. |
01:51:52 |
You now own Bernard |
01:51:54 |
Thanks. |
01:51:56 |
"Thanks". |
01:51:58 |
You remember once |
01:52:01 |
"One day". |
01:52:03 |
Do you remember? |
01:52:06 |
Well, this is the |
01:52:09 |
When you bought Norman Studios, |
01:52:18 |
What's that supposed to mean? |
01:52:20 |
At this moment, your great |
01:52:23 |
is in the hospital dying |
01:52:26 |
Here, you'll need it. |
01:52:44 |
I-I didn't know. |
01:52:45 |
Not until this very |
01:52:49 |
Jonas, I work for you. |
01:52:50 |
How-how could |
01:53:00 |
Hey, there he is now. |
01:53:02 |
Here he is, |
01:53:03 |
Here he is, Jonas Cord. |
01:53:05 |
My radio audience wants |
01:53:08 |
When did you hear, Mr. Cord? |
01:53:09 |
Was she really your |
01:53:10 |
Was she really your mother? |
01:53:12 |
Did you say was? |
01:53:13 |
She's dead. |
01:53:15 |
She died 20 minutes ago. |
01:53:39 |
Good morning, |
01:53:48 |
How long I been here? |
01:53:50 |
Little over a week. |
01:53:52 |
You know, I've seen some big |
01:53:55 |
on Third Avenue in my day-- |
01:53:58 |
my own father, |
01:54:01 |
but in my sight, |
01:54:03 |
New York, huh? |
01:54:10 |
I hope I didn't mistreat you. |
01:54:13 |
Never laid a glove on me. |
01:54:15 |
Wasn't a woman |
01:54:18 |
It was the sorrow you were |
01:54:39 |
Its all there |
01:54:40 |
except I took out |
01:54:47 |
Hey, take it easy. |
01:54:51 |
Come on. |
01:55:02 |
Sit down. |
01:55:07 |
When you feel up to it, |
01:55:08 |
there's a razor in the bathroom. |
01:55:09 |
And while you're shaving, |
01:55:11 |
I can take your clothes |
01:55:13 |
and have them pressed up a bit. |
01:55:15 |
Get you some food, |
01:55:16 |
if you think you |
01:55:19 |
You're in the wrong business. |
01:55:21 |
You ought to be |
01:55:24 |
The irish make |
01:55:27 |
We always get sentimental |
01:55:33 |
Do you mind if I |
01:55:36 |
What? |
01:55:38 |
She's dead, you know. |
01:55:39 |
And all the whiskey |
01:55:42 |
won't be bringing |
01:55:46 |
Now, if you'll |
01:55:48 |
and take your clothes off |
01:55:49 |
you and I will get |
01:55:52 |
of living the best way we can. |
01:56:32 |
...late from the office, |
01:56:39 |
lf you plan on working for me |
01:56:41 |
stop looking |
01:56:43 |
Fix your hair, |
01:56:45 |
shorter skirts |
01:56:47 |
Bring your books. |
01:56:56 |
Get the head of |
01:56:57 |
I want this place redecorated. |
01:56:59 |
Send somebody to my hotel |
01:57:02 |
Call my tailor. |
01:57:03 |
Order four more suits, |
01:57:05 |
Get rid of this stuff. |
01:57:08 |
Have the barber in here |
01:57:10 |
Tell maintenance to open |
01:57:13 |
I'm going to live here. |
01:57:15 |
And have the commissary keep |
01:57:19 |
Take the name Norman off |
01:57:23 |
from the main gate |
01:57:25 |
and put my name up, |
01:57:27 |
Order the studio police to |
01:57:31 |
till one of us dies. |
01:57:33 |
Set up appointments. |
01:57:35 |
Nevada Smith... |
01:57:37 |
David Woolf, |
01:57:39 |
McAllister, |
01:57:42 |
and Buzz Dalton, |
01:57:44 |
When you get that done, |
01:57:47 |
There's more. |
01:57:48 |
Don't you read the papers? |
01:57:51 |
The German army is |
01:57:54 |
The world is at war. |
01:57:56 |
You've got a dozen businesses |
01:57:58 |
and you sit here in this |
01:58:01 |
cutting out paper dolls |
01:58:03 |
some big-busted blonde |
01:58:06 |
Specifically, Buzz, |
01:58:07 |
Your attention, for one thing. |
01:58:09 |
In case you haven't heard, |
01:58:11 |
a big contract |
01:58:13 |
I heard. |
01:58:15 |
Our Burbank plant is straining |
01:58:17 |
with passenger planes |
01:58:19 |
We can't even start |
01:58:20 |
Get me the head of |
01:58:22 |
Of course I know |
01:58:24 |
to a good sexy |
01:58:26 |
but it's the biggest first-act |
01:58:29 |
Question is, |
01:58:31 |
This morning, I bought an |
01:58:33 |
I hired a private detective |
01:58:35 |
I want him to run it. |
01:58:37 |
Is there anything else |
01:58:39 |
Yeah, just for the record, |
01:58:45 |
I want you to make a series |
01:58:47 |
based on the Max |
01:58:49 |
You've got a long |
01:58:51 |
in this business, if we bring |
01:58:56 |
Did Rina say anything to you |
01:58:58 |
Not to me. |
01:59:00 |
Not a word. |
01:59:01 |
Jonas? |
01:59:02 |
What? |
01:59:04 |
Why didn't you try to help her? |
01:59:06 |
You were the only one who could. |
01:59:10 |
She was doomed |
01:59:13 |
There are people |
01:59:16 |
beyond human help. |
01:59:18 |
Maybe you're right. |
01:59:22 |
When do I start? |
01:59:24 |
Monday. |
01:59:26 |
Make sure the new contract |
01:59:30 |
includes the right |
01:59:32 |
to change the actors' |
01:59:35 |
Anything else, Mac? |
01:59:38 |
Mac? |
01:59:40 |
Well, there's one thing more. |
01:59:45 |
Jonas, I'm tired. |
01:59:46 |
I want out. |
01:59:47 |
Sure, Mac. |
01:59:49 |
Take a month off, |
01:59:50 |
We'll manage. |
01:59:52 |
Oh, you'll manage, |
01:59:55 |
No, for years, I've been hoping |
01:59:58 |
to get things organized |
02:00:02 |
I'm a neat man, Jonas. |
02:00:04 |
And you don't like |
02:00:07 |
Its exciting. |
02:00:09 |
Too exciting for me. |
02:00:11 |
Its eating me up. |
02:00:12 |
Oh, I'm supposed to be |
02:00:15 |
yet I'm not really sure |
02:00:18 |
because I... well, |
02:00:21 |
Its all in your head. |
02:00:23 |
Only you know |
02:00:25 |
You like it that way, |
02:00:28 |
You're the boss, |
02:00:30 |
The rest of us are |
02:00:33 |
yes men. |
02:00:34 |
What you're trying to say is |
02:00:36 |
you don't like my being involved |
02:00:38 |
No, what I'm trying to say |
02:00:40 |
is that, |
02:00:42 |
you're crazy. |
02:00:46 |
You're fired. |
02:00:49 |
Here's where you get off. |
02:00:52 |
Good-bye, Mac. |
02:00:56 |
That's a good line, Jonas. |
02:00:58 |
And now it all makes sense. |
02:01:02 |
You're not Jonas Cord, Jr. |
02:01:03 |
You're somebody else. |
02:01:06 |
You're acting out a part, |
02:01:10 |
No wonder all this make-believe. |
02:01:13 |
It was inevitable. |
02:01:15 |
You've been acting |
02:01:17 |
and you've finally found |
02:01:23 |
Well, I must say, |
02:01:24 |
it was a bang-up, first-class, |
02:01:28 |
Even I couldn't tell |
02:01:31 |
What do you know! |
02:01:35 |
Anyway, good-bye, Jonas. |
02:01:37 |
It was one hell of a play. |
02:01:39 |
There's only one more thing |
02:01:42 |
I'd like to be around when you |
02:01:45 |
I'd give a year's pay to know |
02:01:47 |
who you really are underneath. |
02:01:49 |
Who knows? |
02:01:51 |
You might even be the devil. |
02:02:05 |
Miss Denton is here, Mr. Cord. |
02:02:07 |
Who? |
02:02:08 |
Miss Jennie Denton. |
02:02:09 |
She's here for a screen test. |
02:02:11 |
Never heard of her. |
02:02:12 |
Well, apparently, |
02:02:15 |
Pierce. Cancel it. |
02:02:21 |
Miss Denton, you... |
02:02:23 |
I just wanted to see |
02:02:27 |
The great, towering, |
02:02:31 |
who makes and breaks |
02:02:32 |
who stamps his foot |
02:02:34 |
and everything trembles |
02:02:37 |
Snaps a switch and |
02:02:42 |
I never really thought there |
02:02:45 |
but just for laughs, I |
02:02:48 |
Well, now I've seen you. |
02:02:50 |
I can check you off my list. |
02:02:53 |
The Lincoln Memorial, |
02:02:56 |
the Grand Canyon, |
02:02:57 |
Jonas Cord. |
02:02:58 |
You're my first |
02:03:01 |
I will say this for you. |
02:03:04 |
At least there's |
02:03:06 |
on your forehead. |
02:03:08 |
I'm lousy at Latin. |
02:03:10 |
Well, tempus fugit |
02:03:13 |
What did he promise you? |
02:03:16 |
Pierce? |
02:03:17 |
Probably what he |
02:03:20 |
Three bills for the test |
02:03:21 |
seven and a half a week |
02:03:24 |
Come back here. |
02:03:26 |
Please. |
02:03:30 |
Please. |
02:03:47 |
I like you. |
02:03:49 |
Oh, now, Mr. Cord, |
02:03:52 |
I'm sending a girl named Jennie |
02:03:57 |
Give her all the time |
02:03:59 |
I want her to have the best |
02:04:01 |
I'll direct it myself. |
02:04:02 |
Very well, Mr. Cord. |
02:04:07 |
Hello? |
02:04:08 |
Oh, yeah. |
02:04:11 |
Monica, it's for you-- |
02:04:15 |
Hello? |
02:04:19 |
Jonas, what a surprise. |
02:04:21 |
Its nearly eight years. |
02:04:23 |
My father? Why do you |
02:04:26 |
Yes, I do, but I gave him my |
02:04:30 |
Yes, he's off it, |
02:04:36 |
You really want him for that, |
02:04:39 |
May I have a cigarette, please? |
02:04:41 |
Well, I don't know. |
02:04:43 |
The last time I mentioned |
02:04:46 |
Yes, I know it's important, |
02:04:53 |
No... no, I don't. |
02:04:58 |
All right, if it's that vital |
02:05:00 |
he's in Chicago, |
02:05:02 |
He's running a lathe |
02:05:05 |
Because that's the way |
02:05:11 |
Well, certainly not |
02:05:14 |
I have a magazine to get out. |
02:05:18 |
The... Ambassador. |
02:05:24 |
Yes. Definitely. |
02:05:28 |
Good-bye, Jonas. |
02:05:34 |
Now, which Jonas |
02:05:36 |
Is there more than one? |
02:05:40 |
Good morning, boss! |
02:05:42 |
What are you so |
02:05:45 |
Oh, I feel like |
02:05:47 |
Like a queen, maybe. |
02:05:49 |
Everywhere I go on the lot, |
02:05:51 |
or say, "Hi, Jennie", |
02:05:53 |
"Hello, Jennie", |
02:05:54 |
Hey, was the test |
02:05:56 |
You're just the kind of girl |
02:05:58 |
people like to smile |
02:06:02 |
What's this? |
02:06:04 |
Six copies of a seven-year |
02:06:07 |
Check them over |
02:06:10 |
If you like it, sign 'em. |
02:06:15 |
Jonas, I'm going |
02:06:17 |
that might make you mad. |
02:06:19 |
Ask it now, instead of later. |
02:06:22 |
Will I be under contract |
02:06:25 |
or as some executive's |
02:06:27 |
That contract's |
02:06:30 |
I like you. |
02:06:31 |
Well enough to fly |
02:06:34 |
in a couple of hours? |
02:06:36 |
Mm, I don't know about that. |
02:06:38 |
It gets pretty cold in Chicago. |
02:06:41 |
I'll find some way |
02:06:43 |
...paragraph one of this |
02:06:47 |
-In there. |
02:06:48 |
"You agree to render |
02:06:49 |
"as the undersigned |
02:06:52 |
"under and pursuant to the |
02:06:56 |
They're beautiful! |
02:06:58 |
''...shall request during said |
02:07:06 |
Thank you, Mr. Cord! |
02:07:07 |
"...in less case, |
02:07:08 |
"you shall be actually be unable |
02:07:15 |
Yeah? |
02:07:18 |
Hello, Jonas. |
02:07:25 |
You look wonderful, Monica. |
02:07:29 |
Jonas, I want you |
02:07:32 |
Joanne, this is Mr. Cord. |
02:07:34 |
How do you do, Mr. Cord? |
02:07:39 |
You're a big girl. |
02:07:41 |
Just as pretty as your mama. |
02:07:43 |
Nobody's that pretty. |
02:07:46 |
Mommy, you said we |
02:07:49 |
Joanne... |
02:07:50 |
I think it's a great idea. |
02:07:51 |
I never ate in a hotel |
02:07:53 |
Okay, Joanne, it's |
02:07:56 |
I'll get my coat. |
02:07:58 |
Jonas, it's beautiful... |
02:08:05 |
Oh, I... |
02:08:06 |
I'm sorry. |
02:08:10 |
I beg your pardon, |
02:08:12 |
I seemed to have played |
02:08:15 |
-Come on, Joanne. |
02:08:17 |
I said, come on. |
02:08:18 |
Monica, |
02:08:20 |
wait a minute. |
02:08:23 |
There's the name and address |
02:08:26 |
Do both of us a favor... |
02:08:45 |
Jonas... |
02:08:46 |
I didn't mean |
02:08:50 |
You didn't do anything. |
02:08:57 |
Things were loused up |
02:09:02 |
You like the coat? |
02:09:05 |
So much, I don't know |
02:09:07 |
Then don't say anything-- |
02:09:40 |
Oh, Jonas! |
02:09:47 |
I'm speechless. |
02:09:49 |
You don't have to say much. |
02:09:51 |
"Yes" or "no" will do. |
02:09:53 |
But you've done so much |
02:09:55 |
You don't have to... |
02:09:57 |
I never do what I have to-- |
02:09:59 |
only what I want to. |
02:10:07 |
Oh, Jonas. |
02:10:10 |
Oh, darling... |
02:10:13 |
There's no one like |
02:10:18 |
My, my. You really hit |
02:10:21 |
didn't you, honey? |
02:10:22 |
Mm-hmm. |
02:10:24 |
Old star-maker |
02:10:26 |
marriage broker, |
02:10:27 |
Pyg... malion's agent. |
02:10:32 |
Takes a handful of... |
02:10:36 |
And makes it into |
02:10:38 |
A rag, a bone, |
02:10:41 |
and presto-- |
02:10:44 |
You grateful? |
02:10:47 |
-Extremely. |
02:10:49 |
Well, not with |
02:10:51 |
Its not for me. |
02:10:52 |
It is if you say it is. |
02:10:53 |
What Jennie wants, |
02:10:56 |
While you're laying on |
02:10:59 |
and he'll buy it, |
02:11:02 |
You used to get 200 bucks. |
02:11:04 |
Wouldn't it give you a kick |
02:11:06 |
to hear somebody tell you |
02:11:10 |
I couldn't do that to him. |
02:11:15 |
Too much for an old pal |
02:11:16 |
who showed you |
02:11:18 |
Its too much. |
02:11:19 |
Ooh! Conscience, |
02:11:23 |
Well, I always say, |
02:11:24 |
there's nothing more righteous |
02:11:29 |
Well, Jenny girl, |
02:11:37 |
A little present... |
02:11:43 |
Pandora's box. |
02:11:45 |
Go ahead, open it up. |
02:11:47 |
Oh, here, let me help you. |
02:11:56 |
Jennie Denton's |
02:11:59 |
Recognize yourself |
02:12:02 |
You're the one that's |
02:12:05 |
Jennie, I'll... I'll |
02:12:14 |
Course, being |
02:12:16 |
I have a couple |
02:12:17 |
just in case you wanted |
02:12:18 |
to give some to your friends... |
02:12:20 |
By the way, |
02:12:23 |
a nice wedding gift |
02:12:25 |
He could run it on your |
02:12:28 |
And information, too. |
02:12:31 |
Jennie, dear, |
02:12:35 |
I think you'll |
02:12:37 |
You know, Jennie baby, Jonas |
02:12:41 |
He's a great man |
02:12:44 |
but when it comes to people, |
02:12:49 |
Oh, when the check arrives, |
02:12:57 |
Well, toodle-ooh, Jennie. |
02:12:59 |
Onward and... upward. |
02:13:09 |
Jonas? |
02:13:10 |
In here. |
02:13:11 |
-Hi, Jennie. |
02:13:12 |
Hello, honey. |
02:13:14 |
I've been trying |
02:13:15 |
Well, I had to fly to Vegas. |
02:13:17 |
I've got to talk to you, Jonas. |
02:13:18 |
Sure, but take off your coat |
02:13:19 |
and have a drink first. |
02:13:20 |
Now. Its important. |
02:13:22 |
All right. |
02:13:25 |
Drink up, |
02:13:34 |
What happened? |
02:13:39 |
Jonas, I can't go |
02:13:44 |
All right, you can't |
02:13:49 |
Let's eat dinner. |
02:13:51 |
Does it mean |
02:13:52 |
No, but I'll pay you |
02:13:53 |
of taking your word |
02:13:55 |
and let it go at that. |
02:13:58 |
I don't want to |
02:14:01 |
because I love you. |
02:14:02 |
Of course you do-- |
02:14:03 |
and we've got hungry |
02:14:05 |
No, Jonas, you don't |
02:14:06 |
who I am, where I come from, |
02:14:08 |
I know all I need to. |
02:14:09 |
No, you don't. |
02:14:11 |
Well, gentlemen... |
02:14:14 |
the betting window |
02:14:16 |
I'll give you Cupid |
02:14:18 |
and back the devil. |
02:14:19 |
Put me down for $100 |
02:14:20 |
and pay me off |
02:14:22 |
Son, you're on. |
02:14:23 |
But there ain't |
02:14:25 |
Little Ella is on her |
02:14:28 |
What made you say that? |
02:14:30 |
Experience... percentage... |
02:14:33 |
plus the fact that |
02:14:36 |
making some last |
02:14:39 |
To Jonas, the word confession |
02:14:43 |
and you know what |
02:14:47 |
Jennie Denton-- |
02:14:49 |
Desired, envied, sought after. |
02:14:52 |
Well, there she is in her |
02:14:55 |
Let's all have |
02:14:58 |
if we're smart-- |
02:15:03 |
Jonas... |
02:15:07 |
I'm sorry. |
02:15:15 |
I'm more than sorry... |
02:15:20 |
You were so good to me, |
02:15:23 |
All I can give you |
02:15:27 |
as dirty as it is. |
02:15:28 |
We'll pay Pierce's blackmail, |
02:15:30 |
then I'll take care |
02:15:32 |
And what good will that do? |
02:15:33 |
Another Pierce will show up, |
02:15:36 |
Even you haven't got |
02:15:38 |
to buy off |
02:15:40 |
who had your lovely |
02:15:42 |
Let me worry about that. |
02:15:44 |
Oh, Jonas, I'm only good |
02:15:45 |
I can't even have children! |
02:15:46 |
Don't you think I know that? |
02:15:48 |
How could you? |
02:15:51 |
I know everything about |
02:15:57 |
You were born at 7:02 a.m., |
02:16:02 |
You were attacked, successfully, |
02:16:05 |
at the age of 15. |
02:16:07 |
You worked as a student nurse, |
02:16:09 |
turned pro at 20. |
02:16:10 |
New Orleans, San Francisco, |
02:16:13 |
your house in Coldwater Canyon. |
02:16:14 |
I can name you dollars, dates, |
02:16:16 |
and anything else you want. |
02:16:18 |
As for this film... |
02:16:20 |
I've seen it twice. |
02:16:23 |
You had good lighting |
02:16:27 |
You knew. |
02:16:29 |
Of course I did. |
02:16:32 |
You were no good, |
02:16:36 |
You were beautiful |
02:16:37 |
that made it better. |
02:16:38 |
And when I found out you |
02:16:40 |
-you were perfect. |
02:16:42 |
Don't say anymore! |
02:16:44 |
One of us is crazy, but I'm not |
02:16:46 |
Don't you ever say that to me! |
02:16:48 |
Jonas! |
02:16:49 |
Why do you think |
02:16:51 |
spent $2 million on publicity, |
02:16:52 |
crammed your face and figure |
02:16:54 |
till they could |
02:16:56 |
Because I wanted to make you |
02:16:59 |
to marry Jonas Cord, |
02:17:01 |
and you will-- |
02:17:03 |
no one will dare |
02:17:05 |
or I'll step on him |
02:17:08 |
This is the best sale |
02:17:10 |
and all I ask for is your beauty |
02:17:13 |
I don't want love or children |
02:17:15 |
I just want a woman |
02:17:18 |
In return, |
02:17:20 |
Now pick up the ring. |
02:17:35 |
Now, let's go to dinner, |
02:17:39 |
make the happy announcement. |
02:18:08 |
We all heard what |
02:18:12 |
Buzz and Morrissey |
02:18:16 |
You think the two of us |
02:18:19 |
I've watched over you |
02:18:22 |
rode with you, taught you, |
02:18:26 |
since you were a boy. |
02:18:27 |
I know. But... |
02:18:30 |
You've done some strange things. |
02:18:34 |
Foolish things. |
02:18:36 |
And brilliant things. |
02:18:38 |
I've tried to understand them. |
02:18:45 |
Yes, and? |
02:18:47 |
I've watched your meanness |
02:18:50 |
I stood by while you grew big |
02:18:55 |
I've seen you make men |
02:18:58 |
and woman cry |
02:19:01 |
Oh, dialogue from one |
02:19:06 |
But never |
02:19:08 |
have I judged the full measure |
02:19:12 |
To put it bluntly, |
02:19:15 |
I think you're crazy. |
02:19:22 |
I'm glad you did that, kid. |
02:19:25 |
Now I don't need an excuse. |
02:19:27 |
Come on, get up, |
02:19:30 |
Get up and show me |
02:19:32 |
Get up. |
02:22:10 |
I advise you |
02:22:14 |
vanish into the hills. |
02:22:18 |
Your luck just ran out |
02:22:21 |
By the order of Jonas Cord, Jr. |
02:22:26 |
From the law |
02:22:30 |
Nothings like you |
02:22:39 |
Well, go on, |
02:22:43 |
Just don't try to act |
02:22:46 |
you'll never make it. |
02:22:49 |
If it hadn't been for me, |
02:22:51 |
you'd be back |
02:22:54 |
shoveling steer manure. |
02:22:55 |
You don't know when |
02:23:01 |
If you don't mind, |
02:23:03 |
I don't usually drink |
02:23:04 |
or ignorant half-breeds. |
02:23:05 |
You don't drink with anybody |
02:23:08 |
because nobody can stand you. |
02:23:12 |
Just the sound of your name |
02:23:16 |
Only the weak and the jealous. |
02:23:18 |
I took a one-horse factory, |
02:23:21 |
and built into something |
02:23:24 |
Only because |
02:23:26 |
Oh, he gave me nothing. |
02:23:30 |
If he could, he'd have locked me |
02:23:35 |
Like he did your brother? |
02:23:43 |
I haven't got a brother. |
02:23:47 |
Your twin brother. |
02:23:49 |
Never had one. |
02:23:51 |
Get out, Nevada. |
02:23:53 |
"Joseph Cord died |
02:23:57 |
Recognize that? |
02:23:58 |
Its off his tombstone. |
02:24:00 |
I said get out. |
02:24:01 |
Born with you, died without |
02:24:04 |
Incurably insane. |
02:24:11 |
Incurably insane. |
02:24:15 |
He died before |
02:24:19 |
And the day he died, |
02:24:25 |
and against me. |
02:24:28 |
He looked at me |
02:24:30 |
Watching, waiting for the other |
02:24:35 |
to turn rotten on him. |
02:24:36 |
So your brother |
02:24:38 |
and your father |
02:24:40 |
and you decided to take it out |
02:24:44 |
That's your excuse? |
02:24:46 |
That is my explanation. |
02:24:50 |
Its not good enough. |
02:24:51 |
Why did you take it out on Rina? |
02:24:53 |
I gave her as good as I got. |
02:24:56 |
And Jennie? |
02:24:58 |
I made her a star. |
02:24:59 |
And Monica? |
02:25:00 |
She wanted to be a mother. |
02:25:03 |
Was that wrong? |
02:25:05 |
Me as father, it was. |
02:25:08 |
I haven't got the right |
02:25:10 |
Because you might have |
02:25:13 |
I don't know, |
02:25:16 |
but I've lived with |
02:25:20 |
Racing against time, |
02:25:22 |
thinking any minute |
02:25:25 |
You rest easy, Junior. |
02:25:28 |
You're not mad at all, |
02:25:32 |
You see, you're not |
02:25:35 |
You're just like your father. |
02:25:38 |
I never was, |
02:25:40 |
You even sound like him. |
02:25:41 |
-Shut up! |
02:25:43 |
-Don't say that. |
02:25:44 |
Wobbling around red-faced |
02:25:45 |
with a drink in your hand. |
02:25:46 |
I said shut up! |
02:25:47 |
All right, look at him! |
02:25:56 |
Need anymore proof? |
02:26:05 |
Nevada. |
02:26:09 |
What can I do? |
02:26:10 |
Junior, I haven't |
02:26:55 |
Let's change this color |
02:26:58 |
Switching the color, |
02:26:59 |
but the colors have to go |
02:27:02 |
Hello, Monica. |
02:27:07 |
Jonas, I'm busy. |
02:27:08 |
I have to talk to you. Now. |
02:27:11 |
There's nothing to talk about. |
02:27:13 |
Just go away. |
02:27:15 |
Well, I don't want |
02:27:19 |
but if I have to, I will. |
02:27:27 |
Jonas, I told you |
02:27:30 |
I never wanted |
02:27:31 |
Monica, I only want |
02:27:34 |
Would you please |
02:27:36 |
Do you want me to lose |
02:27:37 |
If I have to, |
02:27:40 |
Now that's typical |
02:27:42 |
Something gets in your way, |
02:27:44 |
I'm not buying anymore, |
02:27:46 |
I've sold the movie studio, |
02:27:47 |
$40 million's worth |
02:27:49 |
and tomorrow morning |
02:27:51 |
What's that |
02:27:53 |
First I've got |
02:27:56 |
I've been living |
02:28:00 |
Oh, there are |
02:28:02 |
This is something |
02:28:04 |
A long time ago, |
02:28:06 |
all about your father |
02:28:08 |
and what it did to you. |
02:28:13 |
Why do you think I let you do |
02:28:17 |
Why I didn't remarry |
02:28:21 |
hoping you'd find out |
02:28:24 |
and nothing wrong |
02:28:26 |
You know, someday, |
02:28:28 |
you ought to take a look |
02:28:36 |
I'm not promising |
02:28:39 |
I am asking for a chance, |
02:28:41 |
for you, for my daughter, |
02:28:46 |
And spend the rest of my life |
02:28:50 |
finding naked girls |
02:28:53 |
Well, no thank you, Jonas. |
02:28:54 |
I've canceled |
02:29:04 |
I bought a house... |
02:29:07 |
for you. |
02:29:19 |
I love you |
02:29:21 |
and I need you. |
02:29:31 |
You do need me. |
02:29:34 |
You need me. |
02:29:53 |
