1
00:00:11,087 --> 00:00:12,288
? ?
2
00:00:39,248 --> 00:00:41,250
? ?
3
00:01:06,373 --> 00:01:09,142
? ?
4
00:01:31,394 --> 00:01:33,429
? ?
5
00:01:52,373 --> 00:01:54,408
? ?
6
00:02:02,495 --> 00:02:04,964
[indistinct chatter]
7
00:02:16,625 --> 00:02:18,428
How's the light? Is it good?
8
00:02:18,463 --> 00:02:20,965
Is-is the light warm enough?
9
00:02:21,302 --> 00:02:22,670
I want to look like a geisha,
10
00:02:22,705 --> 00:02:24,841
only two eyes
and two little nostrils.
11
00:02:24,877 --> 00:02:28,447
All smoothed out, baby.
[chuckles]
12
00:02:31,725 --> 00:02:34,495
[Jacob]
The Monet, of course, Low Tide
13
00:02:34,531 --> 00:02:36,900
has a breadth to it, a sweep.
14
00:02:36,936 --> 00:02:40,640
The Manet, the flowers,
less drama and scope.
15
00:02:40,677 --> 00:02:41,779
[Truman]
Monet, Manet.
16
00:02:41,813 --> 00:02:43,582
Let's call the
whole thing off.
17
00:02:43,617 --> 00:02:45,853
[Babe and Truman laugh]
18
00:02:45,889 --> 00:02:49,559
[Babe]
Well, the Monet is very alluring.
19
00:02:49,596 --> 00:02:51,765
But the Manet, breathtaking.
20
00:02:51,801 --> 00:02:55,539
Two Roses, a very
late picture.
21
00:02:55,576 --> 00:02:58,346
Mm, it has great
freedom, Jacob.
22
00:02:58,383 --> 00:02:59,551
Mastery.
23
00:02:59,585 --> 00:03:01,721
Concentrated power.
24
00:03:01,757 --> 00:03:02,925
[Jacob]
Well, Mrs. Paley,
25
00:03:02,959 --> 00:03:05,695
I think the thing is,
he's at an age
26
00:03:05,731 --> 00:03:07,667
where he's liberated.
27
00:03:07,702 --> 00:03:10,572
Mr. Horn, it's not liberation.
28
00:03:10,609 --> 00:03:11,677
He's dying.
29
00:03:11,711 --> 00:03:12,779
Syphilis.
30
00:03:12,813 --> 00:03:14,515
We can speak the word
"syphilis."
31
00:03:14,550 --> 00:03:15,752
We're grown-ups.
32
00:03:15,787 --> 00:03:17,856
-Well, I'm not sure if I am.
-[all laugh]
33
00:03:17,891 --> 00:03:20,894
Then came gangrene
and an amputated leg.
34
00:03:20,931 --> 00:03:23,734
He could no longer
even handle a big canvas.
35
00:03:23,770 --> 00:03:25,606
[Jacob]
Precisely.
36
00:03:25,641 --> 00:03:27,643
Exactly. Sad.
37
00:03:27,679 --> 00:03:29,815
No, not sad.
38
00:03:29,850 --> 00:03:32,753
Such glorious delicacy,
39
00:03:32,790 --> 00:03:35,560
just brimming
with how briefly nature lets
40
00:03:35,596 --> 00:03:37,632
beauty remain beautiful.
41
00:03:37,667 --> 00:03:38,735
[chuckles softly]
42
00:03:38,770 --> 00:03:41,773
The roses telegraph
their own decay.
43
00:03:41,809 --> 00:03:43,678
A memento mori.
44
00:03:43,713 --> 00:03:45,782
It has so much wall power.
45
00:03:45,818 --> 00:03:48,688
The Manet over the Monet.
46
00:03:48,724 --> 00:03:51,594
[Truman and Babe chuckle]
47
00:03:51,631 --> 00:03:52,633
Oh, I could
48
00:03:52,667 --> 00:03:53,902
fix my hair.
49
00:03:53,936 --> 00:03:56,705
Or something. Extra lipstick.
50
00:03:56,742 --> 00:03:59,445
? ?
51
00:04:06,964 --> 00:04:10,701
I didn't say only eat
oysters before... [laughs]
52
00:04:10,739 --> 00:04:12,675
-One hour before?
-No.
53
00:04:12,710 --> 00:04:15,546
She's telling me
the secret to romance.
54
00:04:15,582 --> 00:04:17,051
[both laughing]
55
00:04:17,086 --> 00:04:21,824
My dear, what I want to know
is why you love me.
56
00:04:21,863 --> 00:04:23,899
I mean, God knows
I'm not easy to love. [laughs]
57
00:04:23,934 --> 00:04:27,137
No, you're not.
[laughs]
58
00:04:27,575 --> 00:04:31,646
I love you
because you understand.
59
00:04:31,684 --> 00:04:32,919
You just catch
on very quickly.
60
00:04:32,954 --> 00:04:35,757
You're like
a very smart parakeet.
61
00:04:35,793 --> 00:04:37,762
Mm! [laughs]
62
00:04:37,797 --> 00:04:38,965
But seriously.
63
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,837
Why does our friendship mean
so much to you?
64
00:04:41,873 --> 00:04:43,808
We talk several times a day.
65
00:04:43,843 --> 00:04:45,779
We vacation together.
66
00:04:45,815 --> 00:04:47,784
Tell the people.
[laughs]
67
00:04:47,819 --> 00:04:50,655
Well, um...
68
00:04:51,861 --> 00:04:54,598
I'm proud of you.
69
00:04:54,634 --> 00:04:55,869
You, uh...
70
00:04:55,903 --> 00:04:57,805
[clicks tongue, sighs]
71
00:04:57,841 --> 00:04:58,875
I-I just think
it's very important
72
00:04:58,910 --> 00:05:01,980
to find something admirable
about someone in order
73
00:05:02,016 --> 00:05:05,586
to love them unconditionally,
which I do with you.
74
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:07,795
I do.
75
00:05:07,829 --> 00:05:09,864
And you...
76
00:05:09,900 --> 00:05:11,736
[sighs softly]
77
00:05:11,771 --> 00:05:13,640
Original.
78
00:05:13,675 --> 00:05:14,843
And more than that, loyal.
79
00:05:14,877 --> 00:05:17,013
Loyalty is everything.
80
00:05:17,049 --> 00:05:20,820
Uh, you can be called upon
in any circumstance.
81
00:05:20,857 --> 00:05:22,826
Is that why you want
to buy me a house?
82
00:05:22,862 --> 00:05:24,964
You won't let me.
[laughs]
83
00:05:24,999 --> 00:05:27,802
I suggested
it would be nice to have him
84
00:05:27,838 --> 00:05:29,974
close on Long Island.
85
00:05:30,010 --> 00:05:33,647
What a blessing to have
someone you love close at hand.
86
00:05:34,653 --> 00:05:36,622
Well, dear...
87
00:05:37,794 --> 00:05:40,496
...for me...
88
00:05:41,034 --> 00:05:45,539
...you know, you are just
the beginning and the end.
89
00:05:45,577 --> 00:05:47,780
Hmm.
90
00:05:47,816 --> 00:05:49,117
Just...
91
00:05:49,151 --> 00:05:53,455
the absolute center of my
world, you know that?
92
00:05:57,837 --> 00:05:59,839
You're gonna make me cry.
93
00:05:59,875 --> 00:06:02,611
Well, I mean it.
94
00:06:02,647 --> 00:06:04,683
[sighs]
95
00:06:12,235 --> 00:06:15,972
something about a man with a camera.
96
00:06:16,010 --> 00:06:18,046
I mean a proper camera.
97
00:06:18,081 --> 00:06:19,182
Holding it like a bazooka.
98
00:06:19,216 --> 00:06:21,919
-[laughter]
-To kill you with.
99
00:06:21,955 --> 00:06:24,058
-Oh.
-[Slim] Are they married?
100
00:06:24,094 --> 00:06:25,128
The Maysles brothers?
101
00:06:25,163 --> 00:06:28,733
[Lee]
No, and, Slim, please don't devour them.
102
00:06:28,770 --> 00:06:32,540
They're artists.
103
00:06:35,018 --> 00:06:37,120
[Truman chuckles]
104
00:06:37,155 --> 00:06:39,124
Well, if no one else
is gonna say it, I will.
105
00:06:39,159 --> 00:06:41,996
I find it impossible to be
one's self with that thing on.
106
00:06:42,033 --> 00:06:43,968
It's absolutely intrusive.
107
00:06:44,003 --> 00:06:46,106
You have nothing to fear
but bad lighting.
108
00:06:46,142 --> 00:06:48,244
-[laughter]
-Good point.
109
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,083
[Lee]
David and Albert are dear friends of mine,
110
00:06:51,119 --> 00:06:53,955
and I think it's very
important that we document this.
111
00:06:53,992 --> 00:06:56,095
Besides, Truman has
112
00:06:56,130 --> 00:06:58,833
approval over
everything they shoot.
113
00:06:58,869 --> 00:07:00,003
Where are they?
114
00:07:00,038 --> 00:07:01,273
Oh, mwah!
115
00:07:01,307 --> 00:07:05,011
The entire point of the
film... to be clear,
116
00:07:05,049 --> 00:07:07,119
is-is not to document
117
00:07:07,154 --> 00:07:09,990
the riveting lunch habits,
for God's sake,
118
00:07:10,026 --> 00:07:11,261
of New York society.
[stammers]
119
00:07:11,296 --> 00:07:14,032
It's an exploration,
it's a celebration.
120
00:07:14,068 --> 00:07:17,105
Of the meaning
of the unparalleled success
121
00:07:17,142 --> 00:07:19,879
-that Truman is experiencing.
-[chuckles]
122
00:07:19,915 --> 00:07:22,017
Yes, we just want
to help him...
123
00:07:22,052 --> 00:07:23,153
capture the moment.
124
00:07:23,189 --> 00:07:25,291
[Truman]
This has never happened to anybody before.
125
00:07:25,326 --> 00:07:28,897
The product of my immersion
into that hell--
126
00:07:28,934 --> 00:07:30,169
and it was hell--
127
00:07:30,204 --> 00:07:34,008
captures the attention of the
world and outsells the Bible.
128
00:07:34,045 --> 00:07:36,915
So that is why
I am going to have
129
00:07:36,952 --> 00:07:38,287
this very special party.
130
00:07:38,321 --> 00:07:42,058
A masked ball,
a Black and White Ball
131
00:07:42,096 --> 00:07:44,933
for all
the most important people
132
00:07:44,969 --> 00:07:46,304
in the world.
133
00:07:46,339 --> 00:07:49,275
[Lee]
You mean the kind that European royals
134
00:07:49,311 --> 00:07:52,081
used to have
before being guillotined?
135
00:07:52,117 --> 00:07:54,053
[laughter]
136
00:07:54,089 --> 00:07:55,090
Where?
137
00:07:55,124 --> 00:07:58,027
As far from
Monroeville, Alabama
138
00:07:58,063 --> 00:08:00,066
as you can get, baby.
139
00:08:00,102 --> 00:08:02,238
The Ballroom at
the Plaza Hotel.
140
00:08:02,273 --> 00:08:05,943
And there will be
a guest of honor...
141
00:08:05,980 --> 00:08:07,949
[Slim gasps]
142
00:08:07,985 --> 00:08:09,187
...whom I will announce
143
00:08:09,221 --> 00:08:11,123
at the right moment.
144
00:08:11,158 --> 00:08:14,895
-Truman. Oh!
-[Truman laughs]
145
00:08:15,234 --> 00:08:17,236
-Mm.
-[Albert] So, Slim,
146
00:08:17,272 --> 00:08:20,009
who do you think will be
guest of honor,
147
00:08:20,045 --> 00:08:22,680
you?
148
00:08:23,218 --> 00:08:25,087
It makes the most sense.
149
00:08:25,122 --> 00:08:26,991
Doesn't it?
150
00:08:27,026 --> 00:08:28,261
You see our connection.
151
00:08:28,295 --> 00:08:33,067
Salinas, California is not so
different to where he's from.
152
00:08:33,106 --> 00:08:34,241
These small...
153
00:08:34,275 --> 00:08:36,978
rural towns that made us.
154
00:08:37,015 --> 00:08:38,217
[chuckles]
155
00:08:38,251 --> 00:08:41,154
I taught him
how to dress for this life.
156
00:08:41,190 --> 00:08:43,125
How to stand in it.
157
00:08:43,161 --> 00:08:46,131
The difference
between fashion and style.
158
00:08:46,167 --> 00:08:48,971
I read all the drafts
159
00:08:49,008 --> 00:08:50,976
of Cold Blood.
160
00:08:51,446 --> 00:08:54,115
What's happening
with Truman right now
161
00:08:54,152 --> 00:08:55,387
in this moment...
162
00:08:55,421 --> 00:08:59,125
I mean, it's not something
I want, but...
163
00:08:59,162 --> 00:09:01,965
It is about what I've done
here, isn't it?
164
00:09:02,002 --> 00:09:04,238
Which is?
165
00:09:04,273 --> 00:09:08,011
We made New York
the capital of the world.
166
00:09:08,049 --> 00:09:10,751
The center of everything.
167
00:09:11,322 --> 00:09:15,026
And who is at the center
of that center?
168
00:09:15,064 --> 00:09:17,934
I ask you.
169
00:09:17,970 --> 00:09:19,905
Who?
170
00:09:19,941 --> 00:09:21,976
Hmm?
171
00:09:24,985 --> 00:09:26,320
[laughs]
172
00:09:26,355 --> 00:09:27,423
[C.Z.]
And how do you choose the guests?
173
00:09:27,457 --> 00:09:30,260
[Truman]
That, my dear, is almost self-selection.
174
00:09:30,297 --> 00:09:31,365
I mean, let's face it,
175
00:09:31,399 --> 00:09:33,201
when you look
at who's important in the world
176
00:09:33,236 --> 00:09:35,405
right now,
there is a hierarchy.
177
00:09:35,441 --> 00:09:39,145
But it's not as vulgar
as one of wealth.
178
00:09:39,182 --> 00:09:41,318
No, it's a meritocracy
179
00:09:41,353 --> 00:09:44,023
of those of us
who have done things.
180
00:09:44,060 --> 00:09:45,195
[sighs]
181
00:09:45,229 --> 00:09:47,198
All the people
my mother dreamed of
182
00:09:47,233 --> 00:09:49,235
back in Alabama
that drove her to New York
183
00:09:49,271 --> 00:09:52,040
and that she hoped
to be intimate with.
184
00:09:53,212 --> 00:09:56,182
She would've been in awe.
[chuckles]
185
00:09:56,219 --> 00:09:58,255
Truman, yes, he, uh...
186
00:09:58,290 --> 00:10:02,028
People think of him
as outgoing, but it's an act.
187
00:10:02,066 --> 00:10:03,334
Like me, he's shy.
188
00:10:03,368 --> 00:10:06,204
But he refuses
to be ruled by fear.
189
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,176
So...
190
00:10:08,212 --> 00:10:10,414
he becomes central.
191
00:10:10,718 --> 00:10:13,454
[David]
Truman says your only fault is that you're perfect.
192
00:10:13,490 --> 00:10:16,093
-[laughs]
-What does that mean?
193
00:10:16,129 --> 00:10:17,364
I'm not perfect.
194
00:10:17,398 --> 00:10:19,233
It's a joke.
[laughs]
195
00:10:19,269 --> 00:10:21,072
I try, but, no.
196
00:10:21,107 --> 00:10:22,975
Nobody is.
197
00:10:23,010 --> 00:10:23,878
[chuckles]
198
00:10:23,912 --> 00:10:25,481
There seems to be
a natural connection
199
00:10:25,516 --> 00:10:28,286
between gay men
and very glamorous women.
200
00:10:28,322 --> 00:10:30,291
Why do you think that is?
201
00:10:30,326 --> 00:10:33,396
Well, we see the importance
of presentation.
202
00:10:33,433 --> 00:10:37,070
That's how we
defend ourselves.
203
00:10:37,409 --> 00:10:39,411
Underneath, though,
is someone who's
204
00:10:39,446 --> 00:10:42,082
just trying
to control their environment.
205
00:10:42,118 --> 00:10:43,420
It's a defense.
206
00:10:43,455 --> 00:10:47,225
Did you offer
to buy Truman a house?
207
00:10:47,563 --> 00:10:51,034
I don't see the need
to discuss that.
208
00:10:51,072 --> 00:10:52,240
[stammers]
209
00:10:52,274 --> 00:10:54,243
Bill was absorbing
some properties
210
00:10:54,278 --> 00:10:56,414
adjacent to us, so...
211
00:10:56,450 --> 00:10:59,253
Do you think it will be you?
212
00:10:59,289 --> 00:11:02,159
The guest of honor
at Truman's ball.
213
00:11:02,195 --> 00:11:03,396
[short laugh]
214
00:11:03,431 --> 00:11:05,467
I don't need an honorary ball
215
00:11:05,502 --> 00:11:08,539
to know that Truman and I have
a singular bond.
216
00:11:08,576 --> 00:11:11,579
It's, well, it's something
every woman deserves,
217
00:11:11,615 --> 00:11:16,187
to be made to feel like the
most important person in the world
218
00:11:16,226 --> 00:11:19,095
by a man who truly loves her.
219
00:11:19,533 --> 00:11:23,870
Of course, in my marriage
I feel that way, too.
220
00:11:26,213 --> 00:11:28,115
[chuckles]
221
00:11:30,189 --> 00:11:31,424
White tablecloths? No!
222
00:11:31,459 --> 00:11:33,328
Absolutely not.
223
00:11:33,363 --> 00:11:34,631
But the theme is
black and white.
224
00:11:34,665 --> 00:11:38,102
Which means you have room
for a pop of color.
225
00:11:38,139 --> 00:11:39,474
Red tablecloths.
226
00:11:39,509 --> 00:11:42,312
-Yes.
-You're my guardian angel.
227
00:11:42,348 --> 00:11:44,351
-[chuckles]
-Barry!
228
00:11:44,387 --> 00:11:45,321
You, of course,
know Mrs. Paley.
229
00:11:45,356 --> 00:11:48,292
Barry is the general manager
of the Plaza.
230
00:11:48,328 --> 00:11:50,464
-Mrs. P. So good to see you.
-And you.
231
00:11:50,500 --> 00:11:52,436
[Truman]
And, Babe, have you met Lisa?
232
00:11:52,471 --> 00:11:55,574
She's outside council from
Gallery Artists and Company.
233
00:11:55,611 --> 00:11:58,481
They help plan parties and
assist with public relations,
234
00:11:58,517 --> 00:12:00,486
and Lord knows
I need help there,
235
00:12:00,521 --> 00:12:02,356
because the press is
hounding me for the guest list,
236
00:12:02,391 --> 00:12:03,493
absolutely braying.
237
00:12:03,528 --> 00:12:06,198
Hello.
How do you do, Mrs. Paley?
238
00:12:06,234 --> 00:12:07,635
Mm.
239
00:12:07,670 --> 00:12:11,408
Lisa, share what you're
planning for the tables.
240
00:12:11,445 --> 00:12:13,647
White orchids in
mercury glass.
241
00:12:13,683 --> 00:12:16,453
Chicken hash,
your favorite, Mr. Capote.
242
00:12:16,489 --> 00:12:18,391
And a signature cocktail,
243
00:12:18,426 --> 00:12:21,063
that daiquiri punch.
244
00:12:21,099 --> 00:12:21,766
Yes.
245
00:12:21,801 --> 00:12:24,370
It's not a Labor Day barbecue.
246
00:12:24,406 --> 00:12:27,075
Excuse me. [soft chuckle]
247
00:12:29,551 --> 00:12:31,486
[Truman]
Can you wait right there?
248
00:12:31,521 --> 00:12:35,058
Can you please just excuse me?
So...
249
00:12:37,534 --> 00:12:39,503
As it happens,
and I didn't know this,
250
00:12:39,539 --> 00:12:42,409
the chippy in the ballroom
was Bill Paley's
251
00:12:42,445 --> 00:12:45,248
latest piece of east-side ass.
252
00:12:46,220 --> 00:12:47,454
[groans]
253
00:12:47,489 --> 00:12:49,525
Sometime women need help
being stronger.
254
00:12:49,560 --> 00:12:52,397
And this is
something I can do.
255
00:12:52,434 --> 00:12:55,203
My advice is...
256
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,509
...dispense with the emotion.
257
00:12:57,545 --> 00:12:58,646
Play the strong wife.
258
00:12:58,680 --> 00:13:01,550
Don't let the understudy
replace you.
259
00:13:01,586 --> 00:13:06,090
Life itself is
a masquerade ball.
260
00:13:06,530 --> 00:13:09,434
[speaking French]
261
00:13:09,471 --> 00:13:12,341
...baby.
[chuckles]
262
00:13:12,377 --> 00:13:13,545
[Babe sobbing]
263
00:13:13,579 --> 00:13:15,448
What? Just confront him?
264
00:13:15,484 --> 00:13:17,553
Well, you have to come
from a place of power.
265
00:13:17,588 --> 00:13:19,557
Get all your tears out on me.
266
00:13:19,592 --> 00:13:21,494
-Oh, Truman.
-Come on.
267
00:13:21,530 --> 00:13:23,566
I thought Happy Rockefeller
was the last time.
268
00:13:23,601 --> 00:13:25,670
No, it never ended. I knew it.
269
00:13:25,705 --> 00:13:27,674
The minute I saw
that horrible girl,
270
00:13:27,710 --> 00:13:29,612
-I knew the rumors were true.
-You have to confront it.
271
00:13:29,647 --> 00:13:31,583
Tell him to get rid of it
right away
272
00:13:31,618 --> 00:13:33,620
-or there will be
big consequences, divorce. -[sniffles]
273
00:13:33,656 --> 00:13:35,625
-Shareholder lunches.
-Show him you're not gonna stand for it.
274
00:13:35,660 --> 00:13:38,597
Yes, but those luncheons.
Those shareholders alone.
275
00:13:38,633 --> 00:13:41,469
-If it were known
he got a girl pregnant-- -Well, exactly.
276
00:13:41,506 --> 00:13:44,309
[whispers]
My God. We...
277
00:13:51,795 --> 00:13:54,365
I love... I mean,
all of these are beautiful.
278
00:13:54,401 --> 00:13:55,569
But I think this one...
279
00:13:55,603 --> 00:13:57,305
Albert, what do you think?
280
00:13:57,340 --> 00:13:58,475
I love the blue interior,
281
00:13:58,510 --> 00:14:00,479
which is kind of dark
and exciting.
282
00:14:00,514 --> 00:14:02,216
[Babe and Bill arguing
in distance]
283
00:14:02,251 --> 00:14:03,352
And this...
284
00:14:03,387 --> 00:14:05,723
-[Bill] I don't!
-...keep telling lies upon lies!
285
00:14:05,759 --> 00:14:07,494
-[Bill] It's not
a lie, goddamn it! -[chuckles softly]
286
00:14:07,529 --> 00:14:08,631
[Babe]
Go to the hotel. I don't care.
287
00:14:08,665 --> 00:14:10,500
I like the gold edge on it.
288
00:14:10,536 --> 00:14:11,604
[door slams in distance]
289
00:14:11,638 --> 00:14:14,375
[footsteps approaching]
290
00:14:14,411 --> 00:14:15,545
[door shuts]
291
00:14:15,579 --> 00:14:18,215
Hi, sweetie.
292
00:14:23,564 --> 00:14:24,665
Tell me they're not filming.
293
00:14:24,700 --> 00:14:26,835
Oh, no, don't worry, dear
heart. I own every frame.
294
00:14:26,871 --> 00:14:29,541
-Nobody will see anything
we don't want them to. -Okay.
295
00:14:29,577 --> 00:14:32,280
Now, boys, equipment off.
Equipment off.
296
00:14:32,316 --> 00:14:33,351
Thank you.
297
00:14:33,385 --> 00:14:34,086
Now, equipment off.
298
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,389
Yes, he's going
to the Carlyle.
299
00:14:36,425 --> 00:14:37,393
For the next week.
300
00:14:37,427 --> 00:14:38,461
Well, good. Hmm.
301
00:14:38,496 --> 00:14:41,266
Well, I wanted to take you
through all of these--
302
00:14:41,302 --> 00:14:42,336
Truman.
303
00:14:42,372 --> 00:14:43,306
-Oh-- [clicks tongue]
-They're still recording.
304
00:14:43,340 --> 00:14:46,711
-Shut it off! David, I told
you! -Please.
305
00:14:46,748 --> 00:14:48,683
-Shut it off. Please.
-Oh.
306
00:14:48,718 --> 00:14:51,555
-[Babe] Shall we start?
-Turn it.
307
00:14:51,591 --> 00:14:52,892
Okay.
308
00:14:52,928 --> 00:14:59,434
Invitation paper must always
be 100-pound premium matte stock.
309
00:15:00,444 --> 00:15:01,378
Uh-huh.
310
00:15:01,413 --> 00:15:05,116
-[chuckles]
-And have it individually cut.
311
00:15:05,454 --> 00:15:08,391
Now, this...
[exhales]
312
00:15:08,428 --> 00:15:10,296
Ivory is overused.
313
00:15:10,331 --> 00:15:11,466
I like...
314
00:15:11,500 --> 00:15:12,568
sand dollar.
315
00:15:12,603 --> 00:15:13,872
That's what this is, I think.
316
00:15:13,906 --> 00:15:15,708
-[chuckles softly]
-Now, this is just a template,
317
00:15:15,743 --> 00:15:18,680
but it should read something
like...
318
00:15:18,717 --> 00:15:21,720
"Truman Capote
319
00:15:21,756 --> 00:15:24,592
"cordially invites
you to a ball
320
00:15:24,629 --> 00:15:26,432
celebrating..."
321
00:15:26,467 --> 00:15:28,502
Madame X.
322
00:15:28,537 --> 00:15:29,505
[Bill]
That "X" is where
323
00:15:29,539 --> 00:15:30,741
Babe's name goes, right?
324
00:15:30,776 --> 00:15:33,646
All will be
revealed, Mr. Paley.
325
00:15:33,682 --> 00:15:36,284
[chuckling softly]
326
00:15:36,689 --> 00:15:37,857
This is so beautiful.
327
00:15:37,891 --> 00:15:41,495
It's very important
to have a crisp edge.
328
00:15:41,532 --> 00:15:42,700
Never deckled.
329
00:15:42,735 --> 00:15:44,604
-Fascinating.
-Yes.
330
00:15:44,639 --> 00:15:45,774
That will make it perfect.
331
00:15:45,808 --> 00:15:49,612
Everything must always be
just perfect--
332
00:15:49,650 --> 00:15:51,486
no less, no more.
333
00:15:51,521 --> 00:15:53,456
Perfect.
334
00:16:00,273 --> 00:16:04,277
You see,
this moment in America's...
335
00:16:04,315 --> 00:16:08,552
This gilded age
is so extraordinary.
336
00:16:08,858 --> 00:16:13,496
Nobody ever sees "society."
337
00:16:13,803 --> 00:16:16,672
The dance of old moneys
338
00:16:16,708 --> 00:16:18,744
commingling with the new.
339
00:16:18,780 --> 00:16:20,882
All the rules they have.
340
00:16:20,917 --> 00:16:21,952
That's what this is,
341
00:16:21,986 --> 00:16:24,322
that's what we're documenting.
342
00:16:24,358 --> 00:16:30,597
An American royalty and
the rituals enshrined therein.
343
00:16:31,039 --> 00:16:33,875
The story's never been told.
344
00:16:34,180 --> 00:16:37,984
And the devil is in the
detail, of course,
345
00:16:38,021 --> 00:16:41,692
because their lives
are positively Proustian.
346
00:16:41,729 --> 00:16:43,831
If you can get in.
347
00:16:43,867 --> 00:16:45,936
Their tables,
their invitations,
348
00:16:45,971 --> 00:16:48,007
their who's-whos.
349
00:16:48,043 --> 00:16:51,347
The scandal behind the luster.
Mm.
350
00:16:51,384 --> 00:16:53,953
Like when I made you shoot
C.Z.'s painting
351
00:16:53,989 --> 00:16:56,793
when she wasn't in the room.
[chuckles]
352
00:16:56,829 --> 00:16:58,730
-[creaking]
-[whispers] Hurry.
353
00:17:00,971 --> 00:17:03,473
[door closes]
354
00:17:03,810 --> 00:17:04,911
So you see,
355
00:17:04,946 --> 00:17:09,384
even the fabulously rich
are naked under their clothes.
356
00:17:09,423 --> 00:17:12,393
Before she was a goddess
of the gilded cage,
357
00:17:12,429 --> 00:17:16,366
C.Z. was a free-spirited girl
living in Mexico City,
358
00:17:16,404 --> 00:17:20,442
enamored of a painter
named Diego Rivera,
359
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:24,952
and aching for a bohemian life
she could never have.
360
00:17:24,990 --> 00:17:26,959
The girl, like the painting,
361
00:17:26,994 --> 00:17:29,363
would ultimately have
to be curated.
362
00:17:29,399 --> 00:17:31,935
Bought and paid for
by her new husband,
363
00:17:31,971 --> 00:17:32,973
Winston Guest.
364
00:17:33,007 --> 00:17:35,076
And hidden away here,
365
00:17:35,112 --> 00:17:39,083
a joke
for the very few insiders.
366
00:17:39,120 --> 00:17:40,955
-[footsteps approaching]
-She's here.
367
00:17:40,990 --> 00:17:41,958
Cameras off. Cameras off.
368
00:17:41,993 --> 00:17:44,396
C.Z., dear.
[chuckles]
369
00:17:44,431 --> 00:17:47,067
Come to my rescue. I want
to shoot the conservatory.
370
00:17:47,104 --> 00:17:50,641
I'm all... turned around.
371
00:17:50,979 --> 00:17:53,348
Is it-- It's this way, is it?
372
00:17:53,384 --> 00:17:56,788
-This way, Truman.
-I think so.
373
00:17:56,825 --> 00:17:58,694
-To the left.
-Mm.
374
00:17:58,729 --> 00:17:59,863
But...
375
00:18:00,266 --> 00:18:04,803
...they also have great pain,
these women.
376
00:18:05,911 --> 00:18:08,881
It's all a
masquerade, you see.
377
00:18:08,918 --> 00:18:12,789
Because underneath
the glamour:
378
00:18:12,826 --> 00:18:14,594
pain.
379
00:18:14,898 --> 00:18:16,032
Ballerina pain.
380
00:18:16,066 --> 00:18:17,834
Gnarled feet.
381
00:18:18,839 --> 00:18:20,941
Because it is dance,
382
00:18:20,977 --> 00:18:22,913
requiring...
383
00:18:22,948 --> 00:18:25,750
stamina and endurance.
384
00:18:26,924 --> 00:18:30,060
And I love them
for that rigor.
385
00:18:30,097 --> 00:18:33,468
But for some reason,
I have to protect them
386
00:18:33,504 --> 00:18:39,776
and... maybe shock them a bit
into being on guard against...
387
00:18:40,118 --> 00:18:43,122
...what the world will do.
388
00:18:43,159 --> 00:18:47,463
Because the world is
a cruel audience, you see.
389
00:18:47,501 --> 00:18:49,003
[Albert]
Where do you think that comes from?
390
00:18:49,038 --> 00:18:51,942
The need to protect them.
391
00:18:51,978 --> 00:18:53,846
Oh, Albert.
392
00:18:53,881 --> 00:18:55,650
[chuckles]
393
00:18:55,954 --> 00:18:58,022
Murderers, artists,
394
00:18:58,057 --> 00:19:01,094
accountants
and socialites alike--
395
00:19:01,131 --> 00:19:05,769
our mothers give us
our most engrained patterns.
396
00:19:06,075 --> 00:19:07,476
And mine,
397
00:19:07,511 --> 00:19:13,684
she was the torchbearer
of unbreakable patterns.
398
00:19:17,098 --> 00:19:19,767
What are you--
399
00:19:20,874 --> 00:19:22,042
Wait.
400
00:19:22,076 --> 00:19:23,511
Slowly, C....
401
00:19:23,546 --> 00:19:25,815
[quietly]
You should be rolling on this.
402
00:19:25,850 --> 00:19:27,719
Say again?
403
00:19:28,122 --> 00:19:30,658
The IRS?
404
00:19:30,962 --> 00:19:33,664
They're coming now?
405
00:19:34,069 --> 00:19:35,470
Listen to me, C.Z.,
406
00:19:35,505 --> 00:19:39,109
pour three fingers
of single malt, rocks.
407
00:19:39,146 --> 00:19:41,883
I'll be there by the third.
408
00:19:41,919 --> 00:19:43,187
Come on. Get in the car.
409
00:19:43,222 --> 00:19:44,156
-[David] Where are we heading?
-Get in the car.
410
00:19:44,191 --> 00:19:47,861
-Let's go. Let's go, let's go.
-[stammers]
411
00:19:52,174 --> 00:19:54,210
[Albert]
God, you're so good with 'em.
412
00:19:54,245 --> 00:19:55,480
How did you get so
indispensable to them?
413
00:19:55,515 --> 00:19:58,051
How do you get 'em eating out
of the palm of your hand?
414
00:19:58,087 --> 00:19:59,956
No one is indispensable.
415
00:19:59,991 --> 00:20:01,126
It's all conditional.
416
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:02,261
It's a subtle contract.
417
00:20:02,296 --> 00:20:04,099
You got to give me some tips,
man.
418
00:20:04,134 --> 00:20:06,203
Oh, Jesus. I play the part.
419
00:20:06,238 --> 00:20:08,040
It's all a performance.
420
00:20:08,076 --> 00:20:09,511
You can do it.
421
00:20:09,545 --> 00:20:13,849
They pick men who are rich
but who cannot act.
422
00:20:14,156 --> 00:20:16,525
And right now,
with Winston and C.Z.,
423
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:20,097
if he had a clue how to play
it, none of this would be happening.
424
00:20:20,135 --> 00:20:22,104
Does it give you
a sense of purpose,
425
00:20:22,139 --> 00:20:24,842
being able to swoop in
and fix it?
426
00:20:25,146 --> 00:20:27,914
It does, I think.
427
00:20:28,452 --> 00:20:31,623
-Goddamn it, are you filming
me? -[chuckles]
428
00:20:31,660 --> 00:20:33,595
You're gonna catch something
you don't want to see,
429
00:20:33,630 --> 00:20:37,068
leaving me alone in the back
seat with your brother.
430
00:20:37,105 --> 00:20:39,174
[laughing]
431
00:20:39,210 --> 00:20:42,246
Now, don't worry.
I won't try anything now.
432
00:20:42,282 --> 00:20:44,285
We're ten minutes away.
[chuckles softly]
433
00:20:44,321 --> 00:20:47,057
[Albert]
And why are we going to C.Z.'s again?
434
00:20:47,093 --> 00:20:50,864
So I can swoop in and fix it.
435
00:20:50,901 --> 00:20:52,035
As I do.
436
00:20:53,039 --> 00:20:54,074
[car door shuts]
437
00:20:54,108 --> 00:20:56,777
[soft chatter]
438
00:21:04,197 --> 00:21:06,766
-All right?
-Yeah.
439
00:21:07,236 --> 00:21:09,805
? ?
440
00:21:16,323 --> 00:21:19,025
[dog barking in distance]
441
00:21:21,267 --> 00:21:24,237
Stop.
I promise it will work out.
442
00:21:24,273 --> 00:21:26,276
[sniffling]
443
00:21:26,312 --> 00:21:28,347
Pretend you're in a movie.
444
00:21:28,382 --> 00:21:29,316
-[exhales]
-You've been through worse
445
00:21:29,351 --> 00:21:33,155
and made it to the top
and you'll do it again.
446
00:21:33,193 --> 00:21:35,262
Winston's a silly
supporting character.
447
00:21:35,297 --> 00:21:37,866
-You were the hero.
-[cries]
448
00:21:38,170 --> 00:21:40,239
The humiliation of it.
449
00:21:40,275 --> 00:21:43,078
The phones are ringing now.
[sniffles]
450
00:21:43,114 --> 00:21:45,016
All over the Eastern Seaboard.
451
00:21:45,051 --> 00:21:46,353
It's gotten out.
452
00:21:46,388 --> 00:21:49,925
"G-Men at the
Winston Guest's."
453
00:21:50,230 --> 00:21:52,098
Act the part.
454
00:21:52,134 --> 00:21:54,002
Joan of Arc.
455
00:21:54,305 --> 00:21:57,242
Look, my dear,
456
00:21:57,279 --> 00:22:02,050
you are gonna show up with me
at the ball.
457
00:22:02,088 --> 00:22:03,690
My arm.
458
00:22:03,725 --> 00:22:05,794
-Yes. That's right.
-[sniffles]
459
00:22:05,829 --> 00:22:10,201
-[sighs]
-Because everything will be about only one thing,
460
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,108
and that is you.
461
00:22:13,112 --> 00:22:14,414
The swan who survives.
462
00:22:14,449 --> 00:22:17,319
[sniffles]
Oh, Truman. [sighs]
463
00:22:17,355 --> 00:22:19,291
-Really?
-Come on.
464
00:22:19,326 --> 00:22:20,427
-[cries]
-Yeah.
465
00:22:20,463 --> 00:22:24,099
And you don't get the same
support from your husband?
466
00:22:24,437 --> 00:22:29,108
Truman said men sometimes have
a hard time playing the part.
467
00:22:29,415 --> 00:22:31,850
"Playing the part."
468
00:22:32,187 --> 00:22:34,289
Winston was unimpeachable.
469
00:22:34,325 --> 00:22:36,328
If Mexican Airlines
nationalizes,
470
00:22:36,363 --> 00:22:38,265
that's not his fault.
471
00:22:38,300 --> 00:22:40,236
Could have happened to anyone.
472
00:22:40,272 --> 00:22:42,374
Was Truman critical
of Winston?
473
00:22:42,409 --> 00:22:44,177
[Albert inhales sharply]
474
00:22:45,348 --> 00:22:48,185
Did Truman ask you
to be guest of honor?
475
00:22:48,222 --> 00:22:50,057
For the ball?
476
00:22:51,228 --> 00:22:54,030
Not in so many words, but...
477
00:22:54,468 --> 00:22:59,139
As a matter of fact, this
afternoon, I believe he did.
478
00:23:00,148 --> 00:23:02,884
It's just a party, but...
479
00:23:04,357 --> 00:23:07,960
God, I could really use
some good news today.
480
00:23:18,354 --> 00:23:19,388
[grunts, exhales]
481
00:23:19,422 --> 00:23:22,192
[dog barks softly, whines]
482
00:23:23,163 --> 00:23:25,165
Shut this off.
483
00:23:26,304 --> 00:23:29,006
[shudders]
I'm a private woman.
484
00:23:29,377 --> 00:23:33,014
[crying softly]
485
00:23:38,497 --> 00:23:39,565
[Albert]
So is it official?
486
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:41,769
C.Z.'s gonna be
the guest of honor at the ball?
487
00:23:41,804 --> 00:23:43,439
Oh, dear.
[sighs]
488
00:23:43,474 --> 00:23:45,477
Well, yes and no.
489
00:23:45,512 --> 00:23:46,780
I intimated it,
490
00:23:46,815 --> 00:23:49,451
but don't go spreading it
around.
491
00:23:49,487 --> 00:23:51,757
I have to handle the others.
492
00:23:51,793 --> 00:23:53,762
I love them,
but they frighten me.
493
00:23:53,797 --> 00:23:54,798
They really do.
494
00:23:54,832 --> 00:23:57,435
You've seen
what Slim is capable of.
495
00:23:57,471 --> 00:23:59,206
That temper.
496
00:23:59,241 --> 00:24:00,276
[chuckles]
497
00:24:00,311 --> 00:24:01,479
It's a long list.
498
00:24:01,513 --> 00:24:04,417
We've got a lot of work to do.
499
00:24:04,453 --> 00:24:05,454
-Carson McCullers?
-[Slim] Oof.
500
00:24:05,489 --> 00:24:06,390
Cross her off the list.
501
00:24:06,424 --> 00:24:08,894
All the charm
of a rusty railroad spike.
502
00:24:08,930 --> 00:24:11,232
-No intention, dear heart.
-[chuckles]
503
00:24:11,267 --> 00:24:12,769
[laughing]
504
00:24:12,804 --> 00:24:14,907
Walter Hoving,
the chairman of Tiffany's,
505
00:24:14,943 --> 00:24:17,446
said his wife
was gonna kill herself
506
00:24:17,482 --> 00:24:18,583
if she didn't make the list.
507
00:24:18,618 --> 00:24:21,954
Tried to bribe me
with a silver breakfast service.
508
00:24:21,991 --> 00:24:24,794
Well, it should have been
gold. Off the list!
509
00:24:24,830 --> 00:24:26,532
-Exactly what I said.
-[laughs]
510
00:24:26,567 --> 00:24:28,536
After all the free publicity
I gave him.
511
00:24:28,572 --> 00:24:30,475
You know who's
been hounding me?
512
00:24:30,510 --> 00:24:31,945
Jerry fucking Zipkin.
513
00:24:31,980 --> 00:24:35,250
Wait, the man with a face
like a bidet?
514
00:24:35,286 --> 00:24:37,321
[laughing]
515
00:24:37,691 --> 00:24:39,527
[Nora]
We can make this in white, too,
516
00:24:39,562 --> 00:24:43,165
or peacock or even ostrich.
517
00:24:43,471 --> 00:24:45,273
[Truman]
Danny Kaye?
518
00:24:45,308 --> 00:24:46,476
[Slim]
Hmm.
519
00:24:46,510 --> 00:24:47,512
Yul Brynner?
520
00:24:47,547 --> 00:24:48,615
Ooh. Not him.
521
00:24:48,649 --> 00:24:52,286
He exposed himself to me
in the hallway at Bemelmans.
522
00:24:52,323 --> 00:24:53,858
Well, well.
523
00:24:53,893 --> 00:24:54,995
I'm not afraid
to say that for the camera,
524
00:24:55,029 --> 00:24:57,532
because I know
you'll never use any of it.
525
00:24:57,568 --> 00:24:59,403
[chuckles]
I wouldn't dare.
526
00:24:59,438 --> 00:25:01,007
-[laughing]
-Yeah.
527
00:25:01,042 --> 00:25:03,511
Or you'd be cut off
from all high society.
528
00:25:03,547 --> 00:25:04,515
And I know you, Truman--
529
00:25:04,549 --> 00:25:05,717
that would kill you.
530
00:25:05,752 --> 00:25:08,989
Yul Brynner, not a man of
a great many gifts down below.
531
00:25:09,026 --> 00:25:11,830
[Truman]
Well, all the men at the ball
532
00:25:11,866 --> 00:25:13,868
must be appropriately sized.
533
00:25:13,903 --> 00:25:16,573
-Out! [chuckles]
-[chuckling] Out.
534
00:25:16,609 --> 00:25:19,512
And of course, no Pamela.
535
00:25:19,549 --> 00:25:22,418
[Truman]
What? Pamela Harriman?
536
00:25:26,330 --> 00:25:27,599
What?
537
00:25:27,633 --> 00:25:28,634
-No.
-But, Big Mama,
538
00:25:28,668 --> 00:25:31,037
-I-I already sent it out.
-Tell me you didn't.
539
00:25:31,073 --> 00:25:34,577
-I had to.
-Oh, my God, fuck you, Truman.
540
00:25:34,614 --> 00:25:36,417
-No.
-Goddamn you.
541
00:25:36,453 --> 00:25:38,422
Slim, you have to understand.
542
00:25:38,457 --> 00:25:40,993
Don't run out.
543
00:25:41,029 --> 00:25:43,532
What is there to understand?
She stole my husband
544
00:25:43,568 --> 00:25:45,570
out from under my nose,
blithely,
545
00:25:45,605 --> 00:25:46,706
as if it were a boulevard
fucking comedy.
546
00:25:46,741 --> 00:25:51,012
-I understand you were hurt,
but I... -She stole my...
547
00:25:51,050 --> 00:25:52,552
...I had to make
considerations.
548
00:25:52,587 --> 00:25:53,655
Fuck your considerations,
Truman!
549
00:25:53,690 --> 00:25:56,960
Are you saying that there is
no cost to this perfidy?
550
00:25:56,996 --> 00:25:59,933
"Perfidy"?
Don't Shakespeare me, Slim.
551
00:25:59,970 --> 00:26:02,940
Come on, it's politics.
I had to.
552
00:26:02,976 --> 00:26:05,178
I will not be
the fucking entertainment
553
00:26:05,214 --> 00:26:08,651
at this party, Truman.
I'm telling you, I won't do it.
554
00:26:08,688 --> 00:26:11,024
Now, you uninvite her.
555
00:26:11,060 --> 00:26:13,597
She stole my goddamn husband,
and you know
556
00:26:13,633 --> 00:26:14,901
I'm still not recovered
from that.
557
00:26:14,935 --> 00:26:18,405
Stop that. Stop it!
For fuck's sake.
558
00:26:19,479 --> 00:26:21,447
Look. Come here.
559
00:26:21,850 --> 00:26:26,088
Sit down there. Sit down.
Sit down.
560
00:26:26,126 --> 00:26:28,529
-Look in the mirror.
-[Slim sighs]
561
00:26:28,565 --> 00:26:29,933
Look.
562
00:26:29,968 --> 00:26:32,303
You are being insane.
563
00:26:32,807 --> 00:26:35,644
This is not a competition.
564
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:40,084
In life, you already won,
ages ago.
565
00:26:40,123 --> 00:26:45,529
Pamela is a point on the map
of our world, nothing more.
566
00:26:45,568 --> 00:26:48,438
She should be irrelevant
to you.
567
00:26:50,111 --> 00:26:54,082
This is absolutely
unacceptable behavior from you.
568
00:26:54,120 --> 00:26:55,956
I love you dearly,
but I'm through
569
00:26:55,991 --> 00:26:57,960
discussing this with you.
Clean yourself up.
570
00:26:57,995 --> 00:27:00,497
Let's go, please.
I have to go.
571
00:27:06,013 --> 00:27:07,014
[Slim]
I'm not coming out there
572
00:27:07,048 --> 00:27:08,583
till he's gone.
Is he gone?
573
00:27:08,618 --> 00:27:10,386
-He's gone.
-Okay.
574
00:27:10,856 --> 00:27:14,259
[quietly]
Fucking hell.
575
00:27:19,007 --> 00:27:21,644
Could they be gone now?
Goodbye, thank you.
576
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:25,150
Have a nice day. Ta-ta.
Ta. Ta.
577
00:27:25,187 --> 00:27:28,390
[Albert]
Anything you want to say about the fight?
578
00:27:28,828 --> 00:27:31,565
That was not a fight.
579
00:27:31,601 --> 00:27:33,570
[laughs]
580
00:27:33,606 --> 00:27:35,041
I was just...
581
00:27:35,076 --> 00:27:37,745
I was trying to explain
to Truman that,
582
00:27:37,781 --> 00:27:41,052
if Pamela comes,
Leland will come,
583
00:27:41,089 --> 00:27:43,725
and he will be uncomfortable.
584
00:27:43,761 --> 00:27:48,199
It's not about me. Really.
It's about Leland.
585
00:27:48,237 --> 00:27:51,708
My ex-husband wears his
emotions on his sleeve.
586
00:27:51,745 --> 00:27:55,749
He's... He's not, um, strong.
587
00:27:55,787 --> 00:27:57,689
[Albert] Do you think
most men are like that?
588
00:27:57,724 --> 00:28:00,027
Not as strong as women?
589
00:28:00,063 --> 00:28:03,033
I think when a man sees
strength in a woman,
590
00:28:03,069 --> 00:28:07,641
it's so, so, so intimidating.
[laughs]
591
00:28:07,679 --> 00:28:09,614
Mm.
592
00:28:10,786 --> 00:28:13,088
Look... [chuckles]
593
00:28:13,124 --> 00:28:15,661
...if you are a strong,
intelligent woman
594
00:28:15,697 --> 00:28:17,766
in this world,
595
00:28:17,801 --> 00:28:21,271
you have two options.
596
00:28:21,308 --> 00:28:25,212
You can dumb yourself down,
which I refuse to do,
597
00:28:25,250 --> 00:28:30,089
or you can accept
that you will always be
598
00:28:30,128 --> 00:28:34,633
fundamentally alone.
599
00:28:34,671 --> 00:28:35,806
[chuckles]
600
00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:39,744
You try.
You try again and again,
601
00:28:39,782 --> 00:28:42,384
but nobody lasts.
602
00:28:43,823 --> 00:28:46,159
Except Truman... [laughs]
...of course.
603
00:28:46,195 --> 00:28:50,700
He felt so bad
about that snafu earlier
604
00:28:50,739 --> 00:28:53,542
that he asked me--
605
00:28:53,578 --> 00:28:54,813
shh--
606
00:28:54,847 --> 00:28:59,519
...to be the guest of honor.
607
00:28:59,558 --> 00:29:01,794
So, ha!
608
00:29:01,829 --> 00:29:04,299
I can handle seeing Pamela.
609
00:29:04,335 --> 00:29:08,639
Truman was right.
It's about the social context.
610
00:29:09,747 --> 00:29:11,149
? Twist, yeah ?
611
00:29:11,183 --> 00:29:14,119
? Baby, twist ?
612
00:29:14,156 --> 00:29:17,293
? Ooh, yeah... ?
613
00:29:17,329 --> 00:29:19,865
[Truman] He had his
way-down-yonder voice,
614
00:29:19,901 --> 00:29:23,172
mushy as sweet potato pie.
615
00:29:23,209 --> 00:29:25,712
And he said, "No,
little buddy,
616
00:29:25,748 --> 00:29:27,283
"I don't want to cornhole you.
617
00:29:27,318 --> 00:29:30,555
I just want to put out
my cigar."
618
00:29:30,592 --> 00:29:31,793
[both laugh]
619
00:29:31,828 --> 00:29:36,132
I'm not going to explain it
to you. Or do you want me to?
620
00:29:36,170 --> 00:29:40,141
Come on, I'll show you.
[laughs]
621
00:29:40,179 --> 00:29:43,816
? Crazy ?
622
00:29:43,853 --> 00:29:45,856
? I've been crazy... ?
623
00:29:45,892 --> 00:29:49,162
[Truman]
This is my secret weapon.
624
00:29:49,199 --> 00:29:51,902
I take him for one more whirl
625
00:29:51,938 --> 00:29:54,875
-at the end of the night.
-[chuckles]
626
00:29:54,911 --> 00:29:58,214
Be the last ones dancing.
627
00:29:58,251 --> 00:30:01,588
Their husbands won't do it,
but I will.
628
00:30:02,794 --> 00:30:04,863
I make them feel seen
629
00:30:04,899 --> 00:30:07,568
and safe.
630
00:30:08,073 --> 00:30:10,176
I feel bad for them,
you know?
631
00:30:10,211 --> 00:30:13,181
Their lives... They got
everything they wanted,
632
00:30:13,217 --> 00:30:16,720
-but they're so sad.
-Mm.
633
00:30:17,794 --> 00:30:20,897
It reminds me of a quote,
Saint Theresa of Avila.
634
00:30:20,933 --> 00:30:23,236
Something like,
"More tears are shed
635
00:30:23,272 --> 00:30:27,509
over answered prayers
than unanswered ones."
636
00:30:28,016 --> 00:30:34,589
? Why do I let myself worry? ?
637
00:30:34,964 --> 00:30:40,603
Answered prayers.
Answered prayers.
638
00:30:41,144 --> 00:30:47,617
? What in the world
did I do? ?
639
00:30:48,961 --> 00:30:51,630
Thank you, Albert.
640
00:30:52,837 --> 00:30:54,772
Thank you.
641
00:31:01,287 --> 00:31:03,790
[laughing]
642
00:31:09,939 --> 00:31:13,243
? ?
643
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:16,917
[indistinct chatter]
644
00:31:20,329 --> 00:31:23,867
? ?
645
00:31:23,904 --> 00:31:25,805
[laughter]
646
00:31:33,357 --> 00:31:36,961
? ?
647
00:31:43,378 --> 00:31:47,316
[indistinct conversations]
648
00:31:47,354 --> 00:31:49,456
[Truman] Well, I feel like
a Christmas present
649
00:31:49,491 --> 00:31:52,962
tied up with a big red bow.
[laughs]
650
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:54,335
Do I look flushed?
651
00:31:54,369 --> 00:31:55,470
I must have run
about 40 miles
652
00:31:55,505 --> 00:31:58,474
between greeting everyone
and scuffing the parquet.
653
00:31:58,511 --> 00:32:01,048
And, yes, I might have had
a glass of champagne.
654
00:32:01,084 --> 00:32:02,319
Possibly two. [chuckles]
655
00:32:02,353 --> 00:32:05,356
Did you get all the arrivals,
Albert, did you get them all?
656
00:32:05,393 --> 00:32:07,929
[conversating indistinctly]
657
00:32:07,965 --> 00:32:10,768
? ?
658
00:32:12,408 --> 00:32:14,009
Bill.
659
00:32:15,448 --> 00:32:17,317
[Truman gasps]
660
00:32:17,352 --> 00:32:19,021
Oh, my goodness.
661
00:32:19,056 --> 00:32:20,491
[chuckling]
662
00:32:20,526 --> 00:32:22,028
-You're gorgeous.
-Thank you.
663
00:32:22,062 --> 00:32:23,898
You're so kind.
664
00:32:23,934 --> 00:32:25,835
[laughs]
665
00:32:28,075 --> 00:32:30,878
You are incredible.
666
00:32:33,053 --> 00:32:33,954
-Perfect.
-Amazing.
667
00:32:33,988 --> 00:32:35,089
[Albert]
How are you feeling, Katharine?
668
00:32:35,125 --> 00:32:39,028
-Oh. Uh... Terrified. [laughs]
-Having a good evening.
669
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:43,438
Luckily, I've got Tru.
And a mask, so...
670
00:32:43,475 --> 00:32:44,543
[Albert] How did you come
to pick Katharine
671
00:32:44,578 --> 00:32:45,580
as your guest of honor?
672
00:32:45,614 --> 00:32:47,516
Well, in every category,
you know,
673
00:32:47,551 --> 00:32:49,386
she's just tens
across the board.
674
00:32:49,421 --> 00:32:51,390
There's beauty and brains,
of course,
675
00:32:51,426 --> 00:32:54,096
but what it really
comes down to is bravery.
676
00:32:54,132 --> 00:32:55,033
She's got a story.
677
00:32:55,067 --> 00:32:58,037
Her husband killed himself
a few years back
678
00:32:58,073 --> 00:32:59,074
with a shotgun.
679
00:32:59,108 --> 00:33:02,412
It's no fault of hers.
He was mentally unstable.
680
00:33:02,449 --> 00:33:04,452
But Katharine
pulled herself up,
681
00:33:04,488 --> 00:33:05,723
singlehandedly raised
the children,
682
00:33:05,757 --> 00:33:08,426
and now she's running
the Washington Post.
683
00:33:08,462 --> 00:33:11,432
It's a true American
success story.
684
00:33:11,469 --> 00:33:12,503
That's what we're
here for tonight.
685
00:33:12,538 --> 00:33:17,443
It's, uh... The American dream
is alive and well.
686
00:33:17,482 --> 00:33:19,818
[chuckles]
687
00:33:20,155 --> 00:33:22,957
? ?
688
00:33:25,566 --> 00:33:28,936
[indistinct chatter, laughter]
689
00:33:36,857 --> 00:33:39,593
[Albert] What do you think
of Kay as guest of honor?
690
00:33:39,630 --> 00:33:41,566
I knew it wasn't going
to be me.
691
00:33:41,601 --> 00:33:43,470
It's not about that.
692
00:33:43,505 --> 00:33:44,606
Kay is a national figure.
693
00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:46,609
None of us wanted it.
694
00:33:46,645 --> 00:33:50,583
It would have sown jealousies.
I didn't want that.
695
00:33:50,620 --> 00:33:53,490
You know, this evening is
for Kay, as it should be.
696
00:33:53,527 --> 00:33:56,029
? ?
697
00:33:59,907 --> 00:34:03,144
[Albert] What did you think
about Kay as guest of honor?
698
00:34:03,181 --> 00:34:05,617
Oh, I-I'm very happy for Kay.
699
00:34:05,653 --> 00:34:08,523
Yes, a woman at the very top
of the news business
700
00:34:08,559 --> 00:34:11,496
-in this country. Right?
-That's right.
701
00:34:11,533 --> 00:34:13,468
There ought to be
more Kay Grahams
702
00:34:13,503 --> 00:34:15,472
running companies,
right, Bill?
703
00:34:15,507 --> 00:34:16,642
-That's right.
-She deserves it.
704
00:34:16,677 --> 00:34:18,613
[Albert] But did you think
it would be you?
705
00:34:18,648 --> 00:34:22,185
Well, that wasn't even
a consideration, really,
706
00:34:22,222 --> 00:34:23,624
that I entertained.
707
00:34:23,659 --> 00:34:24,627
No. Why would I...
708
00:34:24,661 --> 00:34:27,531
That's enough, thank you
very much, thank you.
709
00:34:27,567 --> 00:34:30,002
? ?
710
00:34:33,046 --> 00:34:34,114
Hi.
711
00:34:34,148 --> 00:34:35,783
[Albert] Everyone is talking
about who isn't here.
712
00:34:35,818 --> 00:34:38,555
Well, the point and fun
of having a party
713
00:34:38,591 --> 00:34:42,228
is who you don't invite.
[laughs]
714
00:34:42,265 --> 00:34:44,033
Mm-hmm.
715
00:34:46,574 --> 00:34:49,077
For example.
716
00:34:49,113 --> 00:34:51,148
? ?
717
00:35:07,152 --> 00:35:09,955
[all cheer]
718
00:35:11,261 --> 00:35:14,665
[laughing]
719
00:35:14,702 --> 00:35:17,238
You shouldn't keep
a lady waiting.
720
00:35:17,274 --> 00:35:19,277
Just offer her the light.
721
00:35:19,313 --> 00:35:20,681
Is she even old enough
to smoke?
722
00:35:20,715 --> 00:35:23,184
[indistinct chatter]
723
00:35:27,797 --> 00:35:29,766
[woman 1]
It's too priceless.
724
00:35:29,802 --> 00:35:32,638
The Winston Guests living
in the guest house.
725
00:35:32,674 --> 00:35:33,776
[woman 2] A friend
at Skadden Arps said
726
00:35:33,810 --> 00:35:35,745
they're repossessing
everything.
727
00:35:35,781 --> 00:35:37,584
[woman 1 laughs]
I hope she invested
728
00:35:37,619 --> 00:35:38,720
in a decent mask.
729
00:35:38,754 --> 00:35:41,124
I would not have
shown my face tonight.
730
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,829
? ?
731
00:35:43,865 --> 00:35:47,236
Uh, is this the only option
for supper?
732
00:35:47,273 --> 00:35:49,308
Yes, ma'am.
733
00:35:49,344 --> 00:35:50,746
But this looks like dog food.
734
00:35:50,780 --> 00:35:52,582
This can't be
the only option.
735
00:35:52,617 --> 00:35:53,786
Some people flew
all the way from Europe
736
00:35:53,821 --> 00:35:56,791
for this party;
this cannot be supper.
737
00:35:56,827 --> 00:36:00,864
Well, so it is, fancy-pants.
Grin and bear it.
738
00:36:00,902 --> 00:36:02,771
No scenes tonight,
Slim, darling.
739
00:36:02,806 --> 00:36:05,676
Everyone's waiting for one,
so let's not.
740
00:36:05,713 --> 00:36:07,649
But one hates to disappoint,
741
00:36:07,684 --> 00:36:08,885
and you're such
a natural performer.
742
00:36:08,919 --> 00:36:11,989
Oh, here we go.
Two bourbon sours, please.
743
00:36:12,026 --> 00:36:14,863
Oh, so now you've got
my ex-husband on brown booze.
744
00:36:14,899 --> 00:36:16,734
Are you here looking
for your next victim?
745
00:36:16,769 --> 00:36:18,672
[gasps] Is this the part
when you say,
746
00:36:18,708 --> 00:36:20,643
"You stole my man"?
747
00:36:20,678 --> 00:36:22,614
And I retort, "You shouldn't
have left Leland
748
00:36:22,649 --> 00:36:23,817
-so unattended."
-[laughs] No.
749
00:36:23,852 --> 00:36:25,754
I was just wondering
why you're here.
750
00:36:25,789 --> 00:36:27,925
And then I remember
no one is as familiar
751
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:29,762
with the ceilings of
rich men's bedrooms
752
00:36:29,798 --> 00:36:31,701
-as you, darling.
-Oh...
753
00:36:31,736 --> 00:36:33,838
You shouldn't have come.
It's a spectacle.
754
00:36:33,873 --> 00:36:35,942
And I thought you were raised
so very well.
755
00:36:35,978 --> 00:36:39,816
How nice to see my wives
getting on so well.
756
00:36:39,853 --> 00:36:41,822
I've waited so long for this.
757
00:36:41,858 --> 00:36:43,927
We can't seem
to tear ourselves apart.
758
00:36:43,962 --> 00:36:47,299
What is this?
Smells like a dead animal.
759
00:36:47,336 --> 00:36:48,370
Chicken hash.
760
00:36:48,405 --> 00:36:50,674
It's all Truman is serving.
Can you believe it?
761
00:36:50,710 --> 00:36:55,047
-Can we lose the cameras now?
-Hmm.
762
00:37:00,865 --> 00:37:01,967
There are two selves.
763
00:37:02,001 --> 00:37:03,069
The one we present
to the world,
764
00:37:03,103 --> 00:37:05,005
and the one we keep
hidden away.
765
00:37:05,041 --> 00:37:08,011
But behind a mask,
all that's buttoned up.
766
00:37:08,047 --> 00:37:10,984
It's chaotic, marvelous
and messy.
767
00:37:11,021 --> 00:37:13,824
It's Carnival. It's everything
I've dreamt of
768
00:37:13,860 --> 00:37:14,828
since I was a little boy.
769
00:37:14,862 --> 00:37:17,665
This kind of true nakedness.
770
00:37:18,905 --> 00:37:20,874
Excuse me, Candy.
771
00:37:20,909 --> 00:37:23,078
We appear to have
party crashers.
772
00:37:23,114 --> 00:37:26,417
Jesus Christ,
isn't this thrilling?
773
00:37:26,453 --> 00:37:29,389
[laughs]
774
00:37:32,033 --> 00:37:34,869
Unmask yourselves,
trespassers.
775
00:37:34,905 --> 00:37:35,906
Show your mortal facades.
776
00:37:35,941 --> 00:37:39,012
[woman] Well, I am the Ghost
of Christmas Past,
777
00:37:39,048 --> 00:37:42,118
and he's the Ghost
of Christmas Future.
778
00:37:42,155 --> 00:37:45,859
That's funny, I don't remember
inviting anyone from Dickens.
779
00:37:45,896 --> 00:37:47,031
[both laugh]
780
00:37:47,065 --> 00:37:50,234
[woman]
Well...
781
00:37:51,875 --> 00:37:55,046
Ann Woodward. Well, well.
782
00:37:55,083 --> 00:37:57,886
-And this must be your son.
-Yes.
783
00:37:57,922 --> 00:38:00,058
-Jimmy.
-Hi, Jimmy.
784
00:38:00,094 --> 00:38:01,996
[Ann] We thought it would
make you laugh.
785
00:38:02,031 --> 00:38:05,001
And besides, I was practically
one of your swans.
786
00:38:05,037 --> 00:38:06,939
[chuckles]
No, dear, never a swan.
787
00:38:06,975 --> 00:38:08,811
A peafowl at best.
788
00:38:08,846 --> 00:38:10,014
Really, dear, do leave.
789
00:38:10,048 --> 00:38:11,917
Don't do this to your boy.
790
00:38:11,952 --> 00:38:12,953
Everyone knows.
791
00:38:12,988 --> 00:38:16,025
Everyone here knows
your dirty little secret.
792
00:38:16,061 --> 00:38:18,931
They're all whispering
about it behind your back.
793
00:38:18,968 --> 00:38:21,971
My dirty little secret,
Truman,
794
00:38:22,007 --> 00:38:25,911
is that I still like you.
795
00:38:25,949 --> 00:38:28,886
-Aw.
-I mean, it's been frosty
796
00:38:28,922 --> 00:38:30,924
between us,
797
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:34,097
but we were friends once,
you know that.
798
00:38:34,133 --> 00:38:38,038
And you always said that
I reminded you of your mother.
799
00:38:38,076 --> 00:38:41,079
Would you kick your mother
out of a party like this?
800
00:38:41,115 --> 00:38:44,451
My mother was kicked out
of parties like these.
801
00:38:44,924 --> 00:38:48,194
That's why she was miserable
and cruel.
802
00:38:48,231 --> 00:38:51,835
And that's why
she killed herself.
803
00:38:51,872 --> 00:38:53,240
Goodbye, Ann.
804
00:38:53,274 --> 00:38:56,845
Look, you know that
there are at least
805
00:38:56,883 --> 00:38:58,118
a dozen people crashing here.
806
00:38:58,152 --> 00:39:00,088
Yeah, of course there are,
but I like them.
807
00:39:00,123 --> 00:39:03,059
You don't have to do this.
808
00:39:03,096 --> 00:39:05,099
I came here tonight for him.
809
00:39:05,134 --> 00:39:08,971
I-I want him to be seen,
to get out and...
810
00:39:09,009 --> 00:39:12,079
-I don't want him...
-To be ostracized?
811
00:39:12,115 --> 00:39:15,085
Because you shot his father
in the face?
812
00:39:15,122 --> 00:39:17,825
Makes perfect sense to me.
813
00:39:20,902 --> 00:39:22,270
What are they doing?
814
00:39:22,304 --> 00:39:24,306
Are you filming me?
Why are you filming me?
815
00:39:24,342 --> 00:39:26,245
Mom, please, let's just go
before people know...
816
00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:29,150
He can stay. Guards,
show this murderess the door.
817
00:39:29,186 --> 00:39:31,521
She told me we were invited.
818
00:39:31,925 --> 00:39:34,227
[Truman]
You are like her.
819
00:39:34,263 --> 00:39:40,503
You're a rotten criminal
and a lousy mother.
820
00:39:41,913 --> 00:39:43,982
What you're doing to us
821
00:39:44,018 --> 00:39:46,054
is so low.
822
00:39:46,089 --> 00:39:48,392
So poisonous.
823
00:39:48,428 --> 00:39:53,499
One day you will know
what this poison tastes like.
824
00:39:53,973 --> 00:39:57,043
And remember, the only
unforgiveable sin is
825
00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,182
deliberate cruelty.
826
00:39:59,217 --> 00:40:02,888
You wrote that, didn't you?
827
00:40:02,926 --> 00:40:05,028
Well, this is that.
828
00:40:05,063 --> 00:40:07,032
This is that.
829
00:40:07,067 --> 00:40:09,503
[sniffles]
830
00:40:21,232 --> 00:40:25,469
Well, one did write that.
831
00:40:26,075 --> 00:40:29,078
At least we know
she was paying attention.
832
00:40:29,115 --> 00:40:31,084
[Frankie Trumbauer's "Taboo"
playing]
833
00:40:31,119 --> 00:40:34,556
? ?
834
00:40:41,075 --> 00:40:44,946
[indistinct chatter]
835
00:40:44,983 --> 00:40:46,584
[laughing]
836
00:41:01,686 --> 00:41:03,021
[laughs]
837
00:41:03,055 --> 00:41:05,657
? ?
838
00:41:07,298 --> 00:41:10,635
Don't mind if I do.
[laughs]
839
00:41:10,672 --> 00:41:12,940
Oh...
840
00:41:29,412 --> 00:41:34,017
Come on, darling. Oh.
What's got into your knickers?
841
00:41:34,056 --> 00:41:35,991
Oh!
842
00:41:44,412 --> 00:41:48,383
I said shut up.
Just stop it.
843
00:41:48,420 --> 00:41:51,290
No, I will not.
This is my party,
844
00:41:51,327 --> 00:41:53,296
and you will not quiet me
into oblivion
845
00:41:53,331 --> 00:41:56,134
with your usual
smug superiority.
846
00:41:56,170 --> 00:41:57,438
Oh, come on, guys.
Truman, honey,
847
00:41:57,473 --> 00:41:59,409
why don't you drink
some coffee?
848
00:41:59,444 --> 00:42:02,281
Okay? We were just
having fun.
849
00:42:02,317 --> 00:42:03,585
It was vulgar
is what it was.
850
00:42:03,620 --> 00:42:07,224
All of you flopping about
like a school of diseased trout
851
00:42:07,261 --> 00:42:09,196
on a Michigan deck,
852
00:42:09,231 --> 00:42:11,367
which, of course,
Jack does so naturally,
853
00:42:11,403 --> 00:42:14,206
with his common
chorus boy background.
854
00:42:14,242 --> 00:42:16,245
"Okla-homo, where the winds
855
00:42:16,281 --> 00:42:18,317
come sweeping down
the plain."
856
00:42:18,352 --> 00:42:20,421
-How dare you.
-[Jack] It was boring in there.
857
00:42:20,457 --> 00:42:23,193
People were fleeing
the party of the century
858
00:42:23,229 --> 00:42:24,263
from fucking boredom.
859
00:42:24,298 --> 00:42:28,168
It was a dull party, and I
was just trying to help.
860
00:42:28,540 --> 00:42:31,344
Why don't we get some
of that delicious hash?
861
00:42:31,380 --> 00:42:33,315
Do you want to? Do you want
to get some hash?
862
00:42:33,351 --> 00:42:34,219
Where's Johnny?
863
00:42:34,253 --> 00:42:37,223
Fingering a coat-check girl,
I'm sure,
864
00:42:37,259 --> 00:42:40,028
as is his wont.
865
00:42:44,141 --> 00:42:47,344
Hi, guys, this is a private
866
00:42:47,381 --> 00:42:50,051
cocktail club conversation.
867
00:42:50,087 --> 00:42:51,355
[Jack] Bullshit.
868
00:42:51,389 --> 00:42:54,058
Nothing's private with you.
869
00:42:55,265 --> 00:42:58,368
Can I just say
what a joy it is
870
00:42:58,405 --> 00:42:59,339
to be included in this party?
871
00:42:59,374 --> 00:43:03,245
The best thing about
being in Truman's orbit
872
00:43:03,282 --> 00:43:05,351
are just the things like this.
873
00:43:05,387 --> 00:43:10,091
The-the parties,
the beautiful people.
874
00:43:11,433 --> 00:43:14,403
[whispering]
But the worst part is,
875
00:43:14,439 --> 00:43:18,243
you actually have
to pretend to like him
876
00:43:18,281 --> 00:43:20,784
to get in.
877
00:43:26,165 --> 00:43:29,101
? ?
878
00:44:04,247 --> 00:44:06,783
? ?
879
00:44:36,417 --> 00:44:40,888
? ?
880
00:44:49,645 --> 00:44:51,614
[Albert]
Come on, we're friends. Weren't you upset
881
00:44:51,649 --> 00:44:53,618
to be passed over
as guest of honor?
882
00:44:53,654 --> 00:44:55,623
-Tell the truth.
-[Lee] You know,
883
00:44:55,658 --> 00:44:58,495
it's always refreshing
to be reminded
884
00:44:58,531 --> 00:45:01,501
of certain verities.
885
00:45:01,538 --> 00:45:03,707
So, no, I was not.
886
00:45:03,742 --> 00:45:07,379
What verities?
You mean facts?
887
00:45:07,417 --> 00:45:09,520
Fact.
888
00:45:09,555 --> 00:45:10,790
[chuckles]
889
00:45:10,825 --> 00:45:14,629
We have a man,
a celebrated little man,
890
00:45:14,666 --> 00:45:19,505
trying to outdo himself
in a ballet called
891
00:45:19,544 --> 00:45:22,714
Dance of the Seven Trumans.
892
00:45:22,751 --> 00:45:24,720
Wherein he spins himself
into butter
893
00:45:24,755 --> 00:45:27,424
for having made
so many declarations
894
00:45:27,460 --> 00:45:30,531
to so many friends.
895
00:45:30,568 --> 00:45:32,837
Best friends.
896
00:45:32,872 --> 00:45:35,408
[imitating Truman]
"Oh, you're my best friend
897
00:45:35,444 --> 00:45:36,712
"in the world; of course.
898
00:45:36,747 --> 00:45:39,384
"Of course you're
the guest of honor, babe.
899
00:45:39,420 --> 00:45:43,291
"I mean Slim. I mean Lee.
900
00:45:43,329 --> 00:45:45,364
I mean..."
901
00:45:47,337 --> 00:45:48,672
Et cetera.
902
00:45:48,707 --> 00:45:51,710
And it's women, always,
because he knows that women
903
00:45:51,746 --> 00:45:53,815
are always being
betrayed in the world,
904
00:45:53,851 --> 00:45:57,555
and they are hungry
for that kind of intimacy.
905
00:45:57,592 --> 00:45:59,728
Here's the fact.
906
00:45:59,764 --> 00:46:02,834
Truman takes advantage
of this fear and aloneness.
907
00:46:02,870 --> 00:46:05,874
He makes us into
his number-one friend.
908
00:46:05,911 --> 00:46:09,448
He makes himself out to be
our great protector,
909
00:46:09,485 --> 00:46:10,853
but really, is he?
910
00:46:10,888 --> 00:46:13,725
So we all thought-- and
some of us swans still think--
911
00:46:13,761 --> 00:46:15,696
that he's our best friend.
912
00:46:15,731 --> 00:46:17,634
But here's the truth.
913
00:46:17,669 --> 00:46:20,605
To be a woman
is to be very much
914
00:46:20,642 --> 00:46:22,878
out on a limb alone.
915
00:46:22,914 --> 00:46:25,784
So don't pretend that there is
such a thing as a best friend,
916
00:46:25,820 --> 00:46:30,024
because even your sister
will steal your man.
917
00:46:32,535 --> 00:46:35,405
Mm-mm. Hmm.
918
00:46:35,441 --> 00:46:36,275
Make it higher.
919
00:46:36,310 --> 00:46:41,548
What you're doing to us
is so low.
920
00:46:41,587 --> 00:46:42,755
So poisonous.
921
00:46:42,790 --> 00:46:46,928
One day you will know
what this poison tastes like.
922
00:46:46,966 --> 00:46:50,537
And remember, the only
unforgiveable sin is
923
00:46:50,574 --> 00:46:52,643
deliberate cruelty.
924
00:46:52,678 --> 00:46:55,380
You wrote that, didn't you?
925
00:46:55,751 --> 00:46:58,354
Well, this is that.
926
00:46:58,791 --> 00:47:01,493
This is that.
[sniffles]
927
00:47:05,706 --> 00:47:08,375
[projector shuts off]
928
00:47:14,592 --> 00:47:16,528
Albert.
929
00:47:16,563 --> 00:47:18,465
[Albert]
Yes?
930
00:47:19,704 --> 00:47:21,706
Hi. [chuckles]
931
00:47:21,741 --> 00:47:24,076
[Albert]
Hello.
932
00:47:25,750 --> 00:47:28,787
Can I watch that back again?
933
00:47:28,823 --> 00:47:31,392
[Albert]
The whole thing?
934
00:47:31,763 --> 00:47:32,865
The Ann Woodward scene, yes.
935
00:47:32,899 --> 00:47:38,838
And then afterwards, um,
the Lee Radziwill interview
936
00:47:38,878 --> 00:47:43,516
in Kenneth's salon.
937
00:47:45,626 --> 00:47:47,428
Is that okay?
938
00:47:50,036 --> 00:47:53,673
Johnson, can you play
reel 25 again?
939
00:47:53,710 --> 00:47:56,079
Thank you.
940
00:48:01,593 --> 00:48:02,962
[projector whirring]
941
00:48:02,997 --> 00:48:05,733
[Truman on film]
Unmask yourselves, trespassers.
942
00:48:05,769 --> 00:48:07,571
Show your mortal fa�ade.
943
00:48:08,810 --> 00:48:11,412
[Truman]
So...
944
00:48:11,849 --> 00:48:13,885
I don't think this idea
945
00:48:13,921 --> 00:48:18,592
of a documentary recording
this time in my life works.
946
00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:21,602
It's...
947
00:48:21,637 --> 00:48:23,740
You see, in my opinion...
948
00:48:23,775 --> 00:48:26,577
the material's
better as a book.
949
00:48:28,051 --> 00:48:30,887
Tru, we have
some extraordinary footage.
950
00:48:30,923 --> 00:48:34,761
Are you worried about
how other people are reflected,
951
00:48:34,799 --> 00:48:36,634
or yourself?
952
00:48:36,669 --> 00:48:38,705
A bit of both.
953
00:48:39,075 --> 00:48:41,878
-But I'm itching to write it.
-[sighs]
954
00:48:41,914 --> 00:48:43,750
It needs to be written.
955
00:48:43,785 --> 00:48:46,021
It needs words, not pictures.
956
00:48:46,057 --> 00:48:50,895
It needs my clarity,
my process of distilling,
957
00:48:50,934 --> 00:48:54,537
the endless jostling
that I'm witness to.
958
00:48:54,842 --> 00:48:59,914
You can film it, but...
not describe it.
959
00:48:59,953 --> 00:49:04,491
No, Tru.
You're not just witness, kid.
960
00:49:04,798 --> 00:49:07,500
You're party to it.
961
00:49:08,705 --> 00:49:10,674
[Albert sighs]
962
00:49:10,710 --> 00:49:12,846
It will make a good book.
963
00:49:12,881 --> 00:49:15,951
You gave me a title, and
for that, I am forever grateful.
964
00:49:15,988 --> 00:49:19,658
-Did I?
-Answered Prayers.
965
00:49:22,001 --> 00:49:25,504
Answered Prayers.
966
00:49:27,981 --> 00:49:31,617

[band joins in]
968
00:49:43,013 --> 00:49:46,083
Hmm. Now what is the purpose
969
00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:48,089
of inviting
a bunch of celebrities
970
00:49:48,124 --> 00:49:52,261
if you're only going to get
them to cover their faces?
971
00:49:52,701 --> 00:49:55,971
I didn't know if you got
my invitation, Mother.
972
00:49:56,007 --> 00:49:59,645
I mean, where to send it?
973
00:49:59,683 --> 00:50:01,919
But here you are.
974
00:50:01,954 --> 00:50:07,559
Why would I miss
the pinnacle of your existence?
975
00:50:07,933 --> 00:50:12,705
Never miss an opportunity
to see or...
976
00:50:12,744 --> 00:50:15,848
to be seen, hmm?
977
00:50:15,885 --> 00:50:18,721
You're too
ravishing for words.
978
00:50:18,757 --> 00:50:20,759
I'm speechless.
979
00:50:20,794 --> 00:50:22,864
Well, that is a first.
980
00:50:22,900 --> 00:50:25,569
[Truman laughs]
981
00:50:25,873 --> 00:50:28,742
Isn't this great, Mama?
982
00:50:28,779 --> 00:50:31,315

Well, hmm.

No, but...
986
00:50:38,934 --> 00:50:42,671
Truman, I am very proud.
987
00:50:42,709 --> 00:50:43,811
Oh, you are?
988
00:50:43,845 --> 00:50:45,046
Mm.

but I had to.
992
00:50:52,063 --> 00:50:54,799
[Nina]
I understand.
993
00:50:54,835 --> 00:50:57,805
Shall we go be seen?
994
00:50:57,841 --> 00:51:00,610
? ?
995
00:51:05,358 --> 00:51:11,297
The truth is, there's only one
true guest of honor.
996
00:51:11,773 --> 00:51:14,075
I don't know
if I ever told you this, Mama,
997
00:51:14,110 --> 00:51:16,980
-but you...

-You're my best friend.

Well, then...

would you, please?
