1
00:03:12,158 --> 00:03:16,094
Now, Marty, Marty.
Don't get sore, Marty.
2
00:03:16,262 --> 00:03:17,490
Who's sore?
3
00:03:17,664 --> 00:03:21,794
When Georgie tells me a customer don't
wanna pay up his bill, I wanna hear why.
4
00:03:21,968 --> 00:03:24,903
Because I'm tired of being
milked like a cow every week.
5
00:03:25,071 --> 00:03:26,936
Why can't I pay you off?
6
00:03:27,106 --> 00:03:29,802
Cut that out, orry.
I run a legitimate laundry.
7
00:03:29,976 --> 00:03:32,672
What laundry tells you
how many tablecloths to take?
8
00:03:32,845 --> 00:03:36,372
My laundry. It's our policy.
We want our customers should be clean.
9
00:03:36,549 --> 00:03:40,144
Who needs so many tablecloths?
Who comes to a place like this to eat?
10
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,346
Every customer has a quota.
Otherwise, he wouldn't pay me.
11
00:03:43,523 --> 00:03:45,013
Mr. Orry.
12
00:03:50,363 --> 00:03:53,958
- Mr. Orry.
- That's all right. That's all right.
13
00:03:54,133 --> 00:03:56,761
- Let go of me!
- Oh, it's you again.
14
00:03:56,936 --> 00:04:00,133
- She broke my leg. I'm gonna sue.
- My dear man.
15
00:04:00,306 --> 00:04:03,969
- It was an accident.
- Accident? She kicked me on purpose.
16
00:04:04,143 --> 00:04:05,667
- Impossible.
- I can explain.
17
00:04:05,845 --> 00:04:08,313
Did you or did you not
kick this customer?
18
00:04:08,481 --> 00:04:11,041
Yes. But I warned him.
I warned him three times.
19
00:04:11,217 --> 00:04:14,516
- You're fired.
- That's not fair. He's the one who's wrong.
20
00:04:14,687 --> 00:04:17,212
He's got 1 o cents for a dance.
He can't be wrong.
21
00:04:17,390 --> 00:04:19,551
Cash in your ticket and get out of here.
22
00:04:19,726 --> 00:04:22,217
The next dance is on the house.
Enjoy yourself.
23
00:04:22,395 --> 00:04:24,989
But be careful the way you dance.
24
00:04:25,164 --> 00:04:26,961
Get him a girl.
25
00:04:35,074 --> 00:04:39,534
Marty, you gotta understand my angle.
Now, business hasn't been so...
26
00:04:43,650 --> 00:04:45,675
Not bad, huh?
27
00:04:45,852 --> 00:04:49,788
I could fix it up. She's one of those
stage-struck ones. You know the type.
28
00:04:50,623 --> 00:04:52,716
Too bad, kid.
29
00:04:53,126 --> 00:04:55,424
You gonna pay up, orry?
30
00:04:55,595 --> 00:04:58,155
Or you want we should
suspend our service?
31
00:05:02,268 --> 00:05:04,429
What'd you have to go
and make a fuss for?
32
00:05:04,604 --> 00:05:06,595
Why should I let that big ape paw me?
33
00:05:06,773 --> 00:05:10,038
- It's natural. They all do it.
- Not to me, they don't.
34
00:05:10,209 --> 00:05:12,905
Oh, I forgot. You're different.
You're going places.
35
00:05:13,079 --> 00:05:14,410
That's right.
36
00:05:14,580 --> 00:05:17,071
Get wise to yourself.
You're not going anyplace.
37
00:05:17,250 --> 00:05:19,775
Not till you stop hollering, "Hands off."
38
00:05:20,019 --> 00:05:24,820
I'll stop hollering when I want to,
not because the customer's always right.
39
00:05:30,530 --> 00:05:32,862
Have you had a good look?
40
00:05:35,868 --> 00:05:39,531
I understand you wanna go on the stage.
Maybe I can help you.
41
00:05:39,706 --> 00:05:43,642
Get out of here, or I'll call the manager.
This is a private dressing room.
42
00:05:43,810 --> 00:05:47,678
Private for employees,
which you're not no longer.
43
00:05:47,847 --> 00:05:50,509
Well, you want me to help you
go on the stage?
44
00:05:50,683 --> 00:05:54,881
Why don't you buy a ticket and try
your line on one of the employees.
45
00:05:55,054 --> 00:05:58,114
- That is, if you have 1 o cents.
- Lf he has 1 o cents?
46
00:05:58,291 --> 00:06:02,193
He's the owner of the biggest
nightclub laundry in chicago.
47
00:06:02,362 --> 00:06:05,024
I know everybody in the business.
They're my customers.
48
00:06:05,198 --> 00:06:08,565
- Sure. He can introduce you to a dozen...
- Shut up!
49
00:06:08,935 --> 00:06:11,460
What are you butting in for?
I can't talk?
50
00:06:11,804 --> 00:06:13,431
I'll give you one of my cards.
51
00:06:15,041 --> 00:06:17,703
- Why should you?
- Why not?
52
00:06:17,877 --> 00:06:19,970
I like to help a girl when I can.
53
00:06:20,146 --> 00:06:23,707
And you got a very excellent personality.
I can see that.
54
00:06:23,883 --> 00:06:26,909
All I do is write on my card,
and they'll put you to work.
55
00:06:28,254 --> 00:06:33,521
Oh, I must've left them out in my car.
Meet me outside, and I'll...
56
00:06:33,893 --> 00:06:35,793
Now what's the matter?
57
00:06:35,962 --> 00:06:39,090
I'm not getting into any car with you.
58
00:06:39,265 --> 00:06:42,757
Who said you should? Who invited you?
I said, meet me at the car.
59
00:06:42,935 --> 00:06:46,132
You dope! He's trying to give
you a break. Take advantage.
60
00:06:46,305 --> 00:06:51,106
Or don't. If you want it, okay.
If not, not.
61
00:07:06,526 --> 00:07:08,653
- Come on, claire. Get out.
- What?
62
00:07:09,796 --> 00:07:12,264
Buy yourself a horse and buggy.
Only beat it.
63
00:07:12,432 --> 00:07:15,458
What's the matter?
You invite me for a pleasant evening...
64
00:07:15,635 --> 00:07:19,696
...I wait who knows how long.
- So I changed my mind. Go on, blow.
65
00:07:21,908 --> 00:07:24,172
Getting beat up.
Been around too long.
66
00:07:24,343 --> 00:07:26,072
Marty.
67
00:07:28,714 --> 00:07:30,443
Hi, baby.
68
00:07:36,255 --> 00:07:38,917
- Honey, I'd like to...
- Up an alley.
69
00:07:41,761 --> 00:07:43,422
What's your name?
70
00:07:44,464 --> 00:07:46,091
- Ruth Etting.
- Here.
71
00:07:46,265 --> 00:07:49,530
Take this over to the circle.
It's on the North Side.
72
00:07:49,702 --> 00:07:52,466
They'll fix you up. Go on, take it.
73
00:07:53,706 --> 00:07:55,833
Can I give you a lift someplace?
74
00:07:56,609 --> 00:07:59,874
I'm just trying to be agreeable.
Don't do me no favors.
75
00:08:00,046 --> 00:08:03,174
- You want the card back?
- Keep it.
76
00:08:03,349 --> 00:08:05,442
Use it in good health.
77
00:08:07,053 --> 00:08:09,521
You wanna know
what's your trouble, girlie?
78
00:08:09,689 --> 00:08:12,180
You ain't got no faith in human nature.
79
00:08:18,364 --> 00:08:19,956
That's all?
80
00:08:20,132 --> 00:08:22,327
She's obligated, ain't she?
81
00:08:22,502 --> 00:08:25,869
So, what are you sitting?
Maybe we can catch up with claire.
82
00:08:26,038 --> 00:08:28,563
So she's got a lot of mileage on her.
83
00:09:36,075 --> 00:09:40,136
To quote Willie Shakespeare
Please lend me your ear
84
00:09:40,313 --> 00:09:44,374
My introduction is done with pride
This act is known both far and wide
85
00:09:44,550 --> 00:09:48,884
His imitations are all the go
So here he is, the star of our show
86
00:09:49,055 --> 00:09:51,285
Eddie Fulton!
87
00:10:09,709 --> 00:10:12,303
One chorus in the next number.
We're running late.
88
00:10:12,478 --> 00:10:15,208
Hooray for Johnny Alderman.
The people's friend.
89
00:10:15,381 --> 00:10:17,406
Hey, deal me in.
90
00:10:17,583 --> 00:10:21,110
Taking in laundry?
I got a sack full of socks.
91
00:10:21,287 --> 00:10:24,256
I wish I had.
These have to last till payday.
92
00:10:24,423 --> 00:10:26,357
Point is, can you last till payday?
93
00:10:26,525 --> 00:10:29,653
I get tired just watching you out there.
94
00:10:29,829 --> 00:10:33,560
I must be something to watch.
I'm just not a dancer, that's all.
95
00:10:33,733 --> 00:10:35,997
It seems odd you'd want
a job dancing, then.
96
00:10:36,168 --> 00:10:39,365
I didn't. They made a mistake.
I'm a singer.
97
00:10:41,974 --> 00:10:44,169
You had much experience?
98
00:10:44,343 --> 00:10:47,210
None so far. I'm just starting.
99
00:10:49,281 --> 00:10:51,306
You going about it the right way?
100
00:10:51,984 --> 00:10:55,010
What do you mean?
Somebody gives me a chance, I'll sing.
101
00:10:55,187 --> 00:10:59,283
I've seen a lot of singers fail
because they get off to a bad start.
102
00:10:59,458 --> 00:11:02,484
Now is when you need coaching,
before you form bad habits.
103
00:11:02,662 --> 00:11:06,826
And you need special material,
arrangements to show off what you've got.
104
00:11:06,999 --> 00:11:09,490
That is, if you're serious about it.
105
00:11:09,669 --> 00:11:11,534
Oh, I'm serious, all right.
106
00:11:11,704 --> 00:11:14,867
I'm also broke.
That would take a lot of money.
107
00:11:16,776 --> 00:11:21,839
Tell you what, I might work with you
a little. Odd hours, after the show.
108
00:11:22,014 --> 00:11:24,209
Would you?
Oh, that would be wonderful.
109
00:11:24,617 --> 00:11:28,314
It would be a pleasure.
One artist to another.
110
00:11:28,487 --> 00:11:32,218
I have a piano over at my place.
It isn't far from here.
111
00:11:32,391 --> 00:11:35,326
We could squeeze in
quite a bit of time.
112
00:11:36,896 --> 00:11:39,660
Wouldn't that be
an awful lot of trouble for you?
113
00:11:40,933 --> 00:11:43,697
There's some trouble a man
doesn't mind getting into.
114
00:11:43,869 --> 00:11:46,201
- Get ready. Five minutes.
- Saved by the gong.
115
00:11:46,372 --> 00:11:47,862
- Johnny.
- Finish the hand.
116
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,770
- Better get back to your piano.
- He said, get ready.
117
00:11:50,943 --> 00:11:52,604
What's to get ready?
118
00:11:52,778 --> 00:11:54,746
Alderman...
119
00:11:55,514 --> 00:12:00,451
...will you kindly use your head? That one
belongs to the Gimp, bought and paid for.
120
00:12:01,020 --> 00:12:04,547
- The Gimp?
- So don't make trouble for yourself or me.
121
00:12:04,724 --> 00:12:08,251
- I got a big investment in this place.
- It's funny.
122
00:12:08,427 --> 00:12:11,555
- I would've sworn she hasn't been around.
- Maybe she hasn't.
123
00:12:11,731 --> 00:12:14,222
What she knows,
they learn in the cradle.
124
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:15,799
Wait a minute, Frobisher.
125
00:12:16,502 --> 00:12:19,471
- Hey, Etling, I'm here.
- Hello, Mr. Snyder.
126
00:12:19,638 --> 00:12:23,039
I got my own laundry, eight trucks,
and she does her own washing.
127
00:12:24,076 --> 00:12:27,307
- Well, they treating you right, kid?
- They're wonderful to me.
128
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,948
Okay, Frobisher, thanks. Blow.
129
00:12:31,050 --> 00:12:35,612
Well, I delivered, didn't I? Tell the truth.
You thought I was giving you the business.
130
00:12:35,788 --> 00:12:37,483
- I've got to go.
- Come on, girls.
131
00:12:37,656 --> 00:12:40,318
Hey, Frobisher,
the kid is staying out of this one.
132
00:12:40,493 --> 00:12:44,862
- Sure, sure. Why not?
- Don't forget, you owe me 1 o cents.
133
00:12:45,030 --> 00:12:46,793
No, really, I better go.
134
00:12:46,966 --> 00:12:48,524
- No, no, l...
- He won't mind.
135
00:12:48,701 --> 00:12:51,431
Oh, Mr. Snyder. It's not...
136
00:12:52,004 --> 00:12:54,495
There's something I wanna ask you.
I'm dancing...
137
00:12:54,673 --> 00:12:56,334
That's great, just great.
138
00:12:56,509 --> 00:12:59,444
- Tell me, have you ever been to Florida?
- No, I haven't.
139
00:12:59,612 --> 00:13:02,547
- I hate to bother you...
- You'll be crazy about it.
140
00:13:02,715 --> 00:13:05,582
- All the girls are nuts about Miami.
- The trouble is...
141
00:13:05,751 --> 00:13:09,050
...Mr. Frobisher put me in the chorus...
- He won't fire you.
142
00:13:09,221 --> 00:13:13,681
There's the worst weather here, cold.
In Miami, you swim in the ocean every day.
143
00:13:13,859 --> 00:13:17,886
- I don't wanna dance, I wanna sing.
- Singing, dancing, what's the difference?
144
00:13:18,063 --> 00:13:20,930
You're on the stage, ain't you?
In here, Georgie.
145
00:13:21,100 --> 00:13:23,091
All set, Marty. Got the train tickets.
146
00:13:23,269 --> 00:13:26,295
How do you like that?
We're leaving Friday night.
147
00:13:26,472 --> 00:13:28,872
- Leaving for where?
- For where?
148
00:13:29,041 --> 00:13:33,137
For Florida.
Girl, you gotta start listening to me.
149
00:13:33,312 --> 00:13:35,576
But I don't want to go to Florida.
150
00:13:35,748 --> 00:13:38,376
Why not?
How do you know you won't like it?
151
00:13:38,551 --> 00:13:40,985
You never been there.
Why, you'll love it.
152
00:13:41,620 --> 00:13:43,554
What's not to like?
153
00:13:46,826 --> 00:13:48,259
She thinks it's a line.
154
00:13:48,427 --> 00:13:52,295
She thinks I say Miami,
I mean Atlantic city.
155
00:13:52,464 --> 00:13:54,455
- Georgie, show her the tickets.
- Yeah.
156
00:13:54,633 --> 00:13:57,830
- Here are the tickets.
- Frobisher will keep your job for you.
157
00:13:58,003 --> 00:14:00,528
Mr. Snyder, I'm not going.
158
00:14:02,808 --> 00:14:05,971
Georgie, get out of here.
159
00:14:06,145 --> 00:14:07,669
Beat it.
160
00:14:08,914 --> 00:14:11,075
Now, look here, you stupid little broad.
161
00:14:11,250 --> 00:14:13,309
Don't you talk to me like that.
162
00:14:13,485 --> 00:14:16,886
I'll talk to you any way I like.
You know who I am?
163
00:14:17,056 --> 00:14:21,083
- Think I let dames get away with anything?
- I'm not trying to get away with anything.
164
00:14:21,260 --> 00:14:23,194
I didn't ask you for one thing.
165
00:14:23,996 --> 00:14:25,896
You didn't ask, but you wanted.
166
00:14:26,065 --> 00:14:30,058
I did my share. Who do you think
you are, you can be so particular?
167
00:14:30,236 --> 00:14:34,002
You get funny, and I'll throw you
back to that crummy dance joint.
168
00:14:34,173 --> 00:14:37,040
You won't have to. I'll walk back.
169
00:14:40,913 --> 00:14:44,280
- What are you doing? What are you doing?
- I'm leaving.
170
00:14:44,450 --> 00:14:48,181
All I wanted was a chance to sing.
And I'll get it.
171
00:14:49,121 --> 00:14:53,080
You don't have to do a thing.
I'll get it for myself.
172
00:15:05,938 --> 00:15:08,702
Hey, Etling! Etling!
173
00:15:08,874 --> 00:15:12,435
What's her name? Ruth. Ruthie!
174
00:15:12,611 --> 00:15:14,374
Ruthie, come on out, huh?
175
00:15:14,546 --> 00:15:17,743
What did I say that was so terrible?
What crime did I commit?
176
00:15:17,917 --> 00:15:22,047
- Come on, like a good girl, huh?
- Want me to drag her out, Marty?
177
00:15:23,589 --> 00:15:25,614
Get out of here.
178
00:15:32,164 --> 00:15:33,426
- Deal me in.
- Well, hurry up.
179
00:15:34,033 --> 00:15:38,129
That's all we wait for Etting.
All right, kids, rehearsal. Let's go.
180
00:15:38,304 --> 00:15:41,501
- Why is it every time we start...?
- You take Etting's place.
181
00:15:41,674 --> 00:15:44,074
I'm a specialty.
182
00:16:00,326 --> 00:16:03,989
- Mr. Snyder wants to see you right away.
- I'm working. Sorry.
183
00:16:04,163 --> 00:16:09,191
Listen, I asked you nice, didn't I?
You want me to ask you not nice?
184
00:16:09,368 --> 00:16:11,962
Sure. Might as well have both versions.
185
00:16:12,137 --> 00:16:13,604
Johnny.
186
00:16:18,544 --> 00:16:21,479
You think the Gimp found out
you talked to the girl?
187
00:16:21,647 --> 00:16:26,675
Maybe. If he has, you think I should
crawl into the laundry and apologize?
188
00:16:27,052 --> 00:16:31,489
Well, I would.
But I'm an old man, I want to live.
189
00:16:31,657 --> 00:16:33,887
What else have I got?
190
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,328
You better go.
191
00:16:37,863 --> 00:16:40,559
But, Mr. Frobisher,
we can't rehearse without music.
192
00:16:40,733 --> 00:16:42,997
- So hum to them.
- Hum?
193
00:16:43,168 --> 00:16:46,228
All right, girls, line up.
Come on, line up.
194
00:16:46,405 --> 00:16:48,965
One, two, three, four.
195
00:16:56,949 --> 00:16:59,110
You notice how the help
all wears gloves?
196
00:16:59,284 --> 00:17:02,310
Once the wash is washed,
it ain't touched by a human hand.
197
00:17:02,488 --> 00:17:06,584
Maybe I'm crazy, but I like things clean.
Sit down, make yourself comfortable.
198
00:17:08,193 --> 00:17:09,922
- Marty, the piano player.
- Hello.
199
00:17:10,095 --> 00:17:13,553
Oh, yeah.
How much you get an hour to coach?
200
00:17:13,732 --> 00:17:16,166
- Coach?
- Miss Etling.
201
00:17:16,335 --> 00:17:18,394
She wants to sing.
202
00:17:19,104 --> 00:17:21,766
She's got some idea
she shouldn't make bad habits.
203
00:17:21,940 --> 00:17:24,670
She should have arrangements,
you know what I mean?
204
00:17:25,711 --> 00:17:27,303
What do you get by the hour?
205
00:17:27,479 --> 00:17:30,141
- Five dollars.
- I'll give you 1 o.
206
00:17:30,315 --> 00:17:32,681
Anybody hangs around me,
they make.
207
00:17:34,586 --> 00:17:36,611
Well, can she sing?
208
00:17:36,789 --> 00:17:39,519
What is she, a dummy?
Anybody can sing.
209
00:17:39,691 --> 00:17:42,854
You put them on the stage,
tell the public they're singers.
210
00:17:43,028 --> 00:17:45,428
What does the public know?
You want the job?
211
00:17:45,597 --> 00:17:48,589
- At 1 o bucks an hour? Sure.
- You got yourself a deal.
212
00:17:48,767 --> 00:17:50,359
Georgie will take you back.
213
00:17:50,536 --> 00:17:52,060
When would you like to start?
214
00:17:52,237 --> 00:17:54,728
- Well...
- You can fix it up between you later.
215
00:17:59,445 --> 00:18:02,903
Don't take it too serious.
A couple lessons to make her feel good.
216
00:18:03,082 --> 00:18:07,075
I'll be taking her to Florida any day now.
You know what I mean.
217
00:18:16,228 --> 00:18:18,093
I'm sorry I took so long changing.
218
00:18:18,263 --> 00:18:21,061
I'm getting paid by the hour.
219
00:18:21,233 --> 00:18:25,169
- By the way, thanks for cutting me in.
- I got the idea from you.
220
00:18:26,238 --> 00:18:28,263
But I would've done it for nothing.
221
00:18:29,675 --> 00:18:32,075
I thought it was better if you got paid.
222
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,846
- Let's start and see what we got.
- All right.
223
00:18:38,183 --> 00:18:39,810
Do you know this?
224
00:18:42,454 --> 00:18:43,921
Yes.
225
00:20:43,976 --> 00:20:46,035
Yes, ma'am.
226
00:20:46,211 --> 00:20:47,644
Am I any good?
227
00:20:49,448 --> 00:20:52,884
- Am I good enough to get somewhere?
- Yeah.
228
00:20:53,051 --> 00:20:54,916
Will you tell that to Mr. Snyder?
229
00:20:55,087 --> 00:20:58,022
I need someone like him.
You know, sort of a manager.
230
00:20:58,557 --> 00:21:02,288
- You're expecting him to be your manager?
- He has a lot of connections.
231
00:21:02,461 --> 00:21:04,292
- You're kidding, aren't you?
- No.
232
00:21:04,463 --> 00:21:07,694
You were quick to spot a routine
friendly pass when I made it.
233
00:21:07,866 --> 00:21:11,199
You must have a vague idea
of what he wants.
234
00:21:11,370 --> 00:21:13,838
Do you know what his exact plans
for you are?
235
00:21:14,006 --> 00:21:17,567
He's taking you to Florida with him.
He told me so himself.
236
00:21:18,977 --> 00:21:21,070
He told me that too.
237
00:21:22,214 --> 00:21:23,841
But I'm not packing.
238
00:21:31,023 --> 00:21:33,617
- Oh, I had a date. I forgot.
- I wouldn't tell him.
239
00:21:33,792 --> 00:21:35,623
Think fast, kid.
240
00:21:36,828 --> 00:21:39,126
Now, just out of plain,
simple curiosity...
241
00:21:39,298 --> 00:21:41,766
...why did you give me a stand-up?
242
00:21:41,933 --> 00:21:43,264
I told her myself, Marty.
243
00:21:43,435 --> 00:21:46,802
Let me hear the fancy story
you're gonna give me. I dare you.
244
00:21:46,972 --> 00:21:50,840
No story, Mr. Snyder. I just forgot.
245
00:21:51,777 --> 00:21:53,108
You forgot?
246
00:21:53,278 --> 00:21:55,803
I don't know how I could have,
but I did.
247
00:21:55,981 --> 00:21:59,382
- And I'm very sorry. Will you forgive me?
- Naturally, I thought...
248
00:21:59,551 --> 00:22:04,386
- Well, I didn't know what to think.
- You didn't think I'd do that to you.
249
00:22:07,426 --> 00:22:10,623
That's all right, dear.
Everybody can make a mistake.
250
00:22:10,796 --> 00:22:13,924
- How's she doing?
- Well, not bad. Not bad at all.
251
00:22:14,099 --> 00:22:16,294
In fact, she's quite a performer.
252
00:22:16,468 --> 00:22:17,799
Did you hear that?
253
00:22:17,969 --> 00:22:21,700
Will you talk to Mr. Frobisher
and ask him if I can have a little song?
254
00:22:21,873 --> 00:22:25,400
I'll talk to him when I get good
and ready. How do you like that?
255
00:22:25,577 --> 00:22:28,171
You had one lesson.
It's time for a swelled head?
256
00:22:28,347 --> 00:22:31,475
You think you can fool the public?
You wanna embarrass me?
257
00:22:35,654 --> 00:22:38,748
I'm sorry. It's just been
on my mind, you know.
258
00:22:39,224 --> 00:22:41,692
I guess this is my night
for making mistakes.
259
00:22:41,860 --> 00:22:44,886
It's because you're tired.
You're not thinking good.
260
00:22:45,063 --> 00:22:48,089
You got no business keeping her up.
I'll take you home.
261
00:22:48,266 --> 00:22:50,063
You go right to bed.
262
00:22:51,136 --> 00:22:52,899
Thank you.
263
00:23:08,053 --> 00:23:12,353
To quote Willie Shakespeare
Please lend me your ear
264
00:23:12,524 --> 00:23:16,927
My introduction is done with pride
This act is known both far and wide
265
00:23:17,095 --> 00:23:23,091
His imitations are all the go
So here he is, the star of our show
266
00:23:23,268 --> 00:23:24,758
Eddie Fulton!
267
00:23:24,936 --> 00:23:27,063
- Fulton! Where's Fulton?
- I don't know.
268
00:23:27,239 --> 00:23:28,968
- Fulton, you're on!
- Great! Great!
269
00:23:29,141 --> 00:23:31,701
- What'd I tell you? A knockout!
- Yeah, yeah.
270
00:23:31,877 --> 00:23:34,778
- Fulton! Fulton, hurry up!
- You're on.
271
00:23:34,946 --> 00:23:37,039
- Sorry.
- Lf it's hard to get here, quit.
272
00:23:37,215 --> 00:23:41,117
Why not spend all your time at the
craps table. And don't forget, smile.
273
00:23:43,155 --> 00:23:45,851
Well, you got what you wanted, huh?
274
00:23:47,325 --> 00:23:51,056
What's the matter? You wanted
a chance to sing, and I got you a chance.
275
00:23:51,229 --> 00:23:53,720
- I'm on and off in a second.
- What'd you expect?
276
00:23:53,899 --> 00:23:56,060
Well, it's not a real number.
277
00:23:57,569 --> 00:23:59,867
I was just thinking of something.
278
00:24:03,608 --> 00:24:06,202
Suppose Fulton missed
a performance. If I could...
279
00:24:06,378 --> 00:24:09,836
Fulton? But he's a headliner.
You're a newcomer. You just started.
280
00:24:10,015 --> 00:24:12,506
Well, somebody would
have to take his place.
281
00:24:13,685 --> 00:24:15,414
Well, how do you like that.
282
00:24:15,587 --> 00:24:19,182
I'm suspecting she wants me to
work Frobisher for an extra routine...
283
00:24:19,357 --> 00:24:21,348
...but she wants the whole business.
284
00:24:21,526 --> 00:24:24,222
What do you want me to do,
knock him off?
285
00:24:24,396 --> 00:24:27,661
Oh, of course not, Mr. Snyder.
286
00:24:27,833 --> 00:24:30,893
- But if he missed a show...
- Why should he? Answer me that.
287
00:24:31,069 --> 00:24:34,937
Well, it could happen, couldn't it?
It almost happened tonight, didn't it?
288
00:24:36,908 --> 00:24:39,308
The nerve you got.
289
00:24:39,478 --> 00:24:40,945
The gall.
290
00:24:41,112 --> 00:24:45,105
Look, will you consider coming into
the laundry business with me?
291
00:24:45,283 --> 00:24:47,683
We'll be millionaires in no time.
292
00:24:51,122 --> 00:24:53,090
Marty, I tell you, no.
293
00:24:53,258 --> 00:24:56,386
You've got a laundry,
I'm a customer. Fine.
294
00:24:56,561 --> 00:25:00,019
You asked me to give her a job,
I give her a job. Fine.
295
00:25:00,198 --> 00:25:04,601
But there's a limit. I'm not putting
her on tonight or any other night.
296
00:25:04,769 --> 00:25:08,136
- But you're stuck. You ain't got Fulton.
- Yeah. Why?
297
00:25:08,306 --> 00:25:10,137
Why should he walk out on me?
298
00:25:10,308 --> 00:25:14,904
He got in too deep with the gambling.
The poor slob didn't have it.
299
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:19,141
Well, how come the poor slob
has it to go to Florida, huh?
300
00:25:19,317 --> 00:25:22,309
What are you asking me?
Frobisher, she'll be a sensation.
301
00:25:22,487 --> 00:25:25,615
To who? Whoever heard of her?
Who will come to see her?
302
00:25:25,790 --> 00:25:28,054
- You wanna close my club?
- Are you kidding?
303
00:25:28,226 --> 00:25:29,716
You know the contacts I got.
304
00:25:29,895 --> 00:25:32,830
People who would be a credit
to the finest nightclubs.
305
00:25:32,998 --> 00:25:36,092
They'll spend, they'll clap,
you'll make a fortune.
306
00:25:37,903 --> 00:25:40,133
On the other hand, Frobisher...
307
00:25:40,305 --> 00:25:42,637
...maybe I got you all wrong.
308
00:25:42,807 --> 00:25:46,072
Maybe you don't wanna oblige
a close, personal pal.
309
00:25:52,784 --> 00:25:54,479
Come in.
310
00:25:55,854 --> 00:25:57,583
- How do I look?
- Top of the world.
311
00:25:57,756 --> 00:26:00,725
Oh, here it is, Johnny.
The chance I've been waiting for.
312
00:26:00,892 --> 00:26:03,520
But you made sure
it wasn't too long a wait.
313
00:26:03,695 --> 00:26:05,925
You bet I did. I'm in a hurry.
314
00:26:06,097 --> 00:26:08,429
And I was right.
I told you he'd help me.
315
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,134
Ruth, get rid of him.
316
00:26:11,303 --> 00:26:13,737
Get rid of him now.
It's not gonna be worth it.
317
00:26:13,905 --> 00:26:15,896
I don't know
what you're talking about.
318
00:26:16,074 --> 00:26:19,566
- Why shouldn't I have a manager?
- A manager? Don't lie to yourself.
319
00:26:19,744 --> 00:26:23,475
If you're going ahead with this,
at least don't lie to yourself.
320
00:26:23,648 --> 00:26:26,208
But don't go ahead with it.
You don't have to.
321
00:26:26,384 --> 00:26:28,113
Yes, I do.
322
00:26:28,286 --> 00:26:32,154
I've tried it without help.
I didn't mind it being hard, Johnny.
323
00:26:32,324 --> 00:26:34,519
I just minded that it didn't work.
324
00:26:34,693 --> 00:26:35,921
Then let me help you.
325
00:26:36,094 --> 00:26:39,154
I'll get you to the right people,
and they'll want you.
326
00:26:39,331 --> 00:26:41,993
They won't have to be
strong-armed or blackmailed.
327
00:26:42,167 --> 00:26:46,866
They'll want you because you're good.
Oh, try it, Ruth. Try it that way.
328
00:26:47,038 --> 00:26:49,302
Johnny, so many guys
have wanted to help me.
329
00:26:49,474 --> 00:26:52,910
And they've all been
on the make, just like him.
330
00:26:53,778 --> 00:26:56,212
I suppose you're the one
who's different.
331
00:26:56,481 --> 00:26:58,108
That's right.
332
00:26:59,417 --> 00:27:02,477
And I mean it.
But get yourself free, Ruth.
333
00:27:02,654 --> 00:27:06,886
But I am free. I've made no promises.
I'm as free as you are.
334
00:27:07,058 --> 00:27:08,286
- Are you?
- Yes.
335
00:27:08,460 --> 00:27:09,984
Prove it.
336
00:27:10,328 --> 00:27:13,729
Let's meet tonight after the show.
Have a cup of coffee together.
337
00:27:13,898 --> 00:27:19,859
Just two free people getting together
over a cup of coffee. Why not, huh?
338
00:27:20,505 --> 00:27:22,200
All right.
339
00:27:22,741 --> 00:27:24,641
That's us. Be great.
340
00:27:26,911 --> 00:27:29,379
- I'm ready. I'm ready.
- Come on. It's time.
341
00:27:29,547 --> 00:27:32,141
Get on there and don't
make me out a horse's neck.
342
00:27:32,317 --> 00:27:34,683
I got the place packed with biggies.
343
00:27:37,722 --> 00:27:40,520
Get a load of that.
"Ruth Etting, chicago's Sweetheart."
344
00:27:40,692 --> 00:27:43,661
- Mr. Sny...
- come on. I'm a nervous wreck.
345
00:27:46,064 --> 00:27:47,793
Excuse me.
346
00:32:02,587 --> 00:32:03,884
Look at the flowers.
347
00:32:04,055 --> 00:32:06,523
Just a little token of the way I feel.
348
00:32:07,091 --> 00:32:10,891
Oh, Marty. Thank you, they're lovely.
349
00:32:11,062 --> 00:32:13,462
Don't thank me
and throw me out so quick.
350
00:32:13,631 --> 00:32:17,089
- I have to get dressed.
- Make it fast because we gotta celebrate.
351
00:32:17,268 --> 00:32:18,565
- Oh, Marty.
- What?
352
00:32:18,736 --> 00:32:21,705
I'm so tired and excited,
I don't think I can go out.
353
00:32:21,873 --> 00:32:23,500
Sure, you can. It's all set up.
354
00:32:23,675 --> 00:32:27,577
- A fancy blowout at Al Gaxley's place.
- That's way out in Bay cliff.
355
00:32:27,745 --> 00:32:31,909
Yeah, sort of a house party for the
weekend. Now, hurry up. We gotta leave.
356
00:32:32,083 --> 00:32:36,349
But, Marty, look, why don't you
go ahead without me.
357
00:32:36,854 --> 00:32:38,344
No.
358
00:32:38,523 --> 00:32:42,152
- It's just that I'm so tired.
- No.
359
00:32:42,327 --> 00:32:44,693
Not this time, Ruthie.
360
00:32:48,132 --> 00:32:50,066
That's all over.
361
00:32:51,769 --> 00:32:53,202
What are you talking about?
362
00:32:53,371 --> 00:32:56,363
About the way you brush me off.
The way you stall me.
363
00:32:56,541 --> 00:33:00,477
Don't think I didn't feel ridiculous
at times. In front of Georgie, even.
364
00:33:00,645 --> 00:33:03,307
- Just because...
- I didn't get sore. Tell the truth.
365
00:33:03,481 --> 00:33:06,917
Did I ever get sore?
Even about not going to Florida?
366
00:33:07,085 --> 00:33:09,747
Now, you wanted to see
how far you could get. Fine.
367
00:33:09,921 --> 00:33:14,381
I don't blame you.
I give you credit. But that's all.
368
00:33:16,961 --> 00:33:18,895
I understand.
369
00:33:19,230 --> 00:33:21,494
You got me a break, and now...
370
00:33:23,501 --> 00:33:25,093
All right.
371
00:33:26,637 --> 00:33:28,332
I'll go with you.
372
00:33:28,906 --> 00:33:30,771
Now you're talking, baby.
373
00:33:30,942 --> 00:33:33,706
- And then you'll never see me again.
- Why?
374
00:33:33,878 --> 00:33:37,473
Because that makes me a tramp,
and I'm not. No matter what you think.
375
00:33:37,648 --> 00:33:39,513
Ruthie, you're wrong.
376
00:33:39,684 --> 00:33:42,619
Listen. Well, I'll be honest with you.
377
00:33:42,787 --> 00:33:46,723
When we first started up together,
I figured, you know, a pickup. Why not?
378
00:33:46,891 --> 00:33:48,654
Didn't mean nothing.
379
00:33:48,826 --> 00:33:53,058
But lately, a change come over me.
I wanna do things for you. I'm anxious.
380
00:33:53,698 --> 00:33:55,359
That's what I was hoping for.
381
00:33:55,533 --> 00:33:58,093
That you would care about me.
But you don't.
382
00:33:59,303 --> 00:34:03,330
What do you mean, I don't?
I'll show you you're out of your head.
383
00:34:03,508 --> 00:34:07,911
You know that joint across the street where
Helen Terral is singing? The oval Room?
384
00:34:08,079 --> 00:34:12,641
Who do you think I had here tonight taking
a gander at you? Just the owner, that's all.
385
00:34:12,817 --> 00:34:16,685
A close, personal pal. We're getting
together Monday to chew it over.
386
00:34:16,854 --> 00:34:20,187
Now does that sound like I think
you're a tr...? A what you said.
387
00:34:20,358 --> 00:34:23,054
You got no idea the plans I've got.
388
00:34:24,962 --> 00:34:27,556
If I go to Al Gaxley's for the weekend.
389
00:34:27,732 --> 00:34:30,724
Well, what do you want of me?
I'm human.
390
00:34:34,839 --> 00:34:36,807
I'm stuck on you.
391
00:34:43,281 --> 00:34:45,215
Thank you, Marty.
392
00:34:46,484 --> 00:34:49,078
Now let me be honest with you too.
393
00:34:49,253 --> 00:34:53,656
In the time that I've known you, you've
become more important to me than anyone.
394
00:34:53,825 --> 00:34:55,690
And I like you...
395
00:34:57,829 --> 00:34:59,797
...but I'm not stuck on you.
396
00:35:01,099 --> 00:35:05,058
Maybe it's because getting someplace
is such a big thing to me.
397
00:35:05,369 --> 00:35:08,429
It seems as if I don't have room
for anything else.
398
00:35:08,606 --> 00:35:10,733
Not yet anyway.
399
00:35:11,476 --> 00:35:13,000
Can you understand that?
400
00:35:13,444 --> 00:35:16,504
Yeah, sure, Ruthie. Sure, but...
401
00:35:17,115 --> 00:35:18,514
But when?
402
00:35:24,255 --> 00:35:25,813
I don't know.
403
00:35:30,328 --> 00:35:33,855
If you still want me to go,
give me a minute and I'll get dressed.
404
00:35:38,136 --> 00:35:40,331
Take yourself the minute.
405
00:35:40,505 --> 00:35:43,065
We'll go out and get a bite to eat.
406
00:35:44,509 --> 00:35:46,306
Marty...
407
00:35:47,278 --> 00:35:49,178
...you'll never be sorry.
408
00:35:49,847 --> 00:35:51,474
What do you mean?
409
00:35:51,649 --> 00:35:53,742
I'm sorry already.
410
00:35:55,019 --> 00:35:57,510
I'll wait for you out in the car.
Only hurry up.
411
00:35:57,688 --> 00:36:00,782
What a day I've had.
My feet are killing me.
412
00:36:01,425 --> 00:36:03,416
Hey, Marty.
413
00:36:04,228 --> 00:36:07,095
We're going downtown
to get a bite to eat.
414
00:36:07,265 --> 00:36:10,291
Call the restaurant.
Tell them to get the champagne ready.
415
00:36:10,468 --> 00:36:12,197
She don't wanna go away with you?
416
00:36:12,370 --> 00:36:14,702
I don't want her to go,
how do you like that?
417
00:36:14,872 --> 00:36:18,000
Bay cliff ain't the right kind of place
for a girl like her.
418
00:36:24,749 --> 00:36:27,547
- She was great tonight, huh? A knockout.
- Yeah, great.
419
00:36:27,718 --> 00:36:28,980
Here.
420
00:36:29,153 --> 00:36:32,179
A little extra. You backed her up good.
421
00:36:32,356 --> 00:36:34,517
Go on, take it.
422
00:36:34,692 --> 00:36:38,219
Get yourself a dame.
Have a big time on me.
423
00:36:43,568 --> 00:36:46,435
Table for three for Mr. Snyder. Yeah.
424
00:36:46,604 --> 00:36:48,572
And champagne.
425
00:36:48,739 --> 00:36:52,505
Yeah, that's right, the works. Right.
426
00:37:03,454 --> 00:37:05,354
Come on, Ruthie!
427
00:37:08,559 --> 00:37:10,754
Good night, Johnny.
428
00:38:26,370 --> 00:38:28,634
This is on the level. This is legit.
429
00:38:28,806 --> 00:38:31,274
I don't have to stack the joint no more.
430
00:40:44,875 --> 00:40:47,343
Hey, Marty, Marty! Sit five minutes.
431
00:40:47,511 --> 00:40:49,945
There's things I gotta talk to you about.
432
00:40:50,114 --> 00:40:52,981
You're so busy all the time.
For instance, the laundry!
433
00:40:53,150 --> 00:40:55,675
You take care of it.
I got confidence in you.
434
00:40:55,853 --> 00:40:59,016
I gotta get back.
She'll wonder I'm not there.
435
00:41:11,368 --> 00:41:13,063
Hi.
436
00:41:13,237 --> 00:41:16,263
I want you to meet Mr. Loomis
of the Roger Black Agency.
437
00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:18,465
- This is Mr. Snyder.
- How do you do?
438
00:41:18,642 --> 00:41:20,769
Mr. Loomis caught the show.
He liked it.
439
00:41:20,945 --> 00:41:24,346
He has a booking for me in New York.
A club called The Black Hat.
440
00:41:24,515 --> 00:41:27,507
- I hear it stinks.
- Well, it's a beginning, Mr. Snyder.
441
00:41:27,685 --> 00:41:29,585
We're not starting at the beginning.
442
00:41:29,753 --> 00:41:33,416
Or maybe I'm out of line. Maybe you're
handling your own booking now.
443
00:41:33,591 --> 00:41:36,059
You got it straight?
Talk business, talk to me.
444
00:41:36,227 --> 00:41:37,489
- All right.
- My card.
445
00:41:37,661 --> 00:41:40,892
Call me up, make an appointment.
If I have time, I'll see you.
446
00:41:41,565 --> 00:41:43,658
Well, thank you very much, Mr. Snyder.
447
00:41:43,834 --> 00:41:47,429
- It was nice seeing you, Miss Etting.
- Thank you.
448
00:41:47,605 --> 00:41:50,836
- Thank you for coming back.
- Oh, it was a pleasure.
449
00:41:53,110 --> 00:41:54,543
Why do you act like that?
450
00:41:54,712 --> 00:41:57,272
- All that man wanted...
- Shut up!
451
00:42:00,050 --> 00:42:04,146
Who got you this far, you?
Look at me when I'm talking to you!
452
00:42:04,321 --> 00:42:07,017
Knock myself out for you.
Show me a little respect.
453
00:42:07,191 --> 00:42:09,489
At least do that much.
454
00:42:11,629 --> 00:42:13,893
You know that Black Hat
he's booking you in?
455
00:42:14,064 --> 00:42:16,328
It's a dump.
You know where it's located?
456
00:42:16,500 --> 00:42:18,900
So far uptown, it's practically
in the Bronx.
457
00:42:19,069 --> 00:42:21,560
You know who goes in there? Dogs!
458
00:42:21,739 --> 00:42:25,368
Now, if you wanna sing for dogs,
go ahead. But not with me.
459
00:42:26,143 --> 00:42:27,804
How was I to know that?
460
00:42:27,978 --> 00:42:32,779
- I heard New York. Naturally, I was excited.
- New York's crawling with dames can sing.
461
00:42:32,950 --> 00:42:36,716
You know when you're going? After I
make their tongues hang out for you.
462
00:42:36,887 --> 00:42:40,653
I've got plans for you so big you
wouldn't understand, a hick like you.
463
00:42:40,824 --> 00:42:42,655
What plans?
464
00:42:46,063 --> 00:42:48,554
Look whose tongue is hanging out now.
465
00:42:48,732 --> 00:42:52,327
Well, never you mind what plans.
All you gotta do is sing.
466
00:42:52,503 --> 00:42:54,835
The real work, I'll do.
467
00:42:59,009 --> 00:43:01,239
Come on, hurry up, get dressed.
468
00:43:04,348 --> 00:43:08,045
- Who was the guy came out?
- Chiselers. Leeches.
469
00:43:08,218 --> 00:43:10,914
You got something good,
everybody wants a piece.
470
00:43:14,425 --> 00:43:16,416
Listen, Georgie...
471
00:43:16,594 --> 00:43:19,028
...I wanna put her on the radio.
472
00:43:19,263 --> 00:43:21,595
Find out who the top man is
at every station.
473
00:43:21,765 --> 00:43:24,325
Ask around which one we can
put the squeeze on.
474
00:43:24,501 --> 00:43:26,731
- You know what I mean?
- Yeah, but, Marty...
475
00:43:26,904 --> 00:43:29,839
...wouldn't it be easier to ask them
come and listen?
476
00:43:30,007 --> 00:43:33,340
- Bet you anything they'd give her a job.
- Think so?
477
00:43:33,510 --> 00:43:36,946
Why not? She sings real good.
478
00:43:38,449 --> 00:43:40,576
At that you might be right...
479
00:43:40,751 --> 00:43:45,984
...but if you ain't and it don't work,
I'll guarantee you one thing. I'll brain you.
480
00:43:47,524 --> 00:43:51,620
- Hey, you. You know anything about radio?
- Yes, a little.
481
00:43:51,795 --> 00:43:54,320
Good. We're branching out.
482
00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:04,799
- Hi, Johnny. Come in.
- Hello.
483
00:44:06,343 --> 00:44:10,302
Oh, he can't make it. I think he had
something to do about his laundry.
484
00:44:10,481 --> 00:44:13,416
Anyway, he said for us to go ahead
and rehearse.
485
00:44:16,787 --> 00:44:19,620
- Pretty fancy, isn't it?
- Yeah.
486
00:44:19,790 --> 00:44:22,953
Marty had it decorated for me
as a birthday present.
487
00:44:23,127 --> 00:44:26,995
It's the first real apartment
I've ever had. I just love it.
488
00:44:27,431 --> 00:44:29,831
Can I get you a drink or something?
489
00:44:32,603 --> 00:44:33,900
Cup of coffee, maybe?
490
00:44:36,507 --> 00:44:37,735
Not now, thank you.
491
00:44:40,944 --> 00:44:44,277
- Did you go to the radio station?
- Yes. I spent the morning...
492
00:44:44,448 --> 00:44:46,507
...outlining the first program.
493
00:44:46,684 --> 00:44:48,652
Oh, Johnny, I still can't believe it.
494
00:44:48,819 --> 00:44:52,687
My own radio program.
The best possible time on the air.
495
00:44:53,424 --> 00:44:56,860
And how about you, maestro?
Conducting your own orchestra.
496
00:44:57,895 --> 00:45:00,693
Very impressive, both of us.
497
00:45:06,070 --> 00:45:07,594
Ruth...
498
00:45:07,771 --> 00:45:10,638
...what happened when that agent
came to see you?
499
00:45:10,808 --> 00:45:12,969
- He had a booking.
- That's what I thought.
500
00:45:13,143 --> 00:45:15,236
Well, why didn't you take it?
501
00:45:15,913 --> 00:45:17,403
I'm not ready for it yet.
502
00:45:17,581 --> 00:45:19,776
And Marty will tell you
when you're ready?
503
00:45:19,950 --> 00:45:22,851
- He's made no mistakes.
- Loomis doesn't make mistakes.
504
00:45:23,020 --> 00:45:24,920
He's the best agent in the business.
505
00:45:25,089 --> 00:45:29,355
He works for you, you pay a commission,
and you don't owe him anything.
506
00:45:29,526 --> 00:45:31,824
- Let him handle you.
- I don't need him.
507
00:45:31,995 --> 00:45:35,453
- Did Marty tell you that?
- I don't need him, because I have Marty.
508
00:45:35,632 --> 00:45:38,328
You have Marty.
You'll have him for a long time.
509
00:45:38,502 --> 00:45:41,733
- He'll be right there every step.
- Let me tell you something.
510
00:45:41,905 --> 00:45:44,806
When it's right for me,
I'll be on my own.
511
00:45:44,975 --> 00:45:47,773
Use him, then ditch him
at the strategic moment?
512
00:45:47,945 --> 00:45:50,436
- Charming plan.
- What are you talking about?
513
00:45:50,614 --> 00:45:53,640
I don't have any plans.
You make it sound as if...
514
00:45:53,817 --> 00:45:57,753
- Why do you always start something?
- I don't. I just have an effect on you.
515
00:45:57,921 --> 00:46:00,651
With me, you let yourself look
at what you're doing.
516
00:46:00,824 --> 00:46:03,622
Don't blame me if it shocks even you.
517
00:46:04,128 --> 00:46:05,755
Let's go to work.
518
00:46:06,130 --> 00:46:08,121
I'm sick of having you around.
519
00:46:08,298 --> 00:46:10,357
Why don't you quit.
520
00:46:11,168 --> 00:46:13,864
- Tell the Gimp to fire me.
- You think I can't?
521
00:46:14,037 --> 00:46:17,200
I know you can. Why don't you?
522
00:46:19,376 --> 00:46:20,843
I don't know.
523
00:46:21,378 --> 00:46:22,970
I don't know.
524
00:46:25,048 --> 00:46:27,243
Suppose I tell you.
525
00:46:33,323 --> 00:46:36,918
Let's find him, Ruth, now.
Let's tell him.
526
00:46:40,731 --> 00:46:42,221
No.
527
00:46:42,399 --> 00:46:44,663
There's nothing to tell him.
528
00:46:45,202 --> 00:46:46,635
Nothing's changed.
529
00:46:46,870 --> 00:46:49,532
- Nothing.
- Ruth, darling...
530
00:49:02,139 --> 00:49:03,401
Ladies and gentlemen...
531
00:49:04,441 --> 00:49:08,844
I been asking you the same thing for weeks.
Is she gonna sign with us again or not?
532
00:49:09,012 --> 00:49:12,004
How long can I stall this sponsor?
What does she want?
533
00:49:12,182 --> 00:49:15,049
- Just half of chicago.
- Hey, Marty, I got him.
534
00:49:15,218 --> 00:49:19,120
Relax, Brelston. In a couple of minutes,
you'll know as much as I do.
535
00:49:21,658 --> 00:49:24,422
Loomis? Go ahead. What?
536
00:49:24,594 --> 00:49:26,425
Yeah.
537
00:49:26,596 --> 00:49:28,564
Yeah, yeah.
538
00:49:28,999 --> 00:49:30,762
They agreed to everything?
539
00:49:31,835 --> 00:49:34,827
All right. We'll make it.
I'll contact you. Yeah.
540
00:49:38,275 --> 00:49:41,540
Yeah, Marty? What she wanted?
New York?
541
00:49:41,878 --> 00:49:45,905
- That's swell. When we gonna go?
- Couple of days.
542
00:49:46,216 --> 00:49:49,708
I don't know how smart it is.
Well, anyway, it's done.
543
00:49:49,886 --> 00:49:53,219
You gotta stay here, Georgie.
You gotta mind the laundry.
544
00:49:53,957 --> 00:49:56,949
- Sure.
- Look, how far away is New York?
545
00:49:57,127 --> 00:49:59,857
- You'll make visits lots of times.
- Yeah.
546
00:50:06,970 --> 00:50:08,528
Well?
547
00:50:10,140 --> 00:50:12,131
- No dice, Brelston.
- What do you mean?
548
00:50:12,309 --> 00:50:16,541
What's the sense of half of chicago?
She's gonna have all of New York.
549
00:50:22,986 --> 00:50:24,977
Ladies and gentlemen.
550
00:50:25,155 --> 00:50:28,921
I wanna invite you to a party
I'm throwing over at the Plaza for Ruthie.
551
00:50:29,359 --> 00:50:30,826
Quiet, I ain't through.
552
00:50:30,994 --> 00:50:33,519
It was on account of winding up
the program.
553
00:50:33,697 --> 00:50:37,633
Now it's for something more important.
Something Ruthie doesn't know yet.
554
00:50:37,801 --> 00:50:39,860
She's going to New York.
555
00:50:40,037 --> 00:50:43,063
- New York?
- She's gonna be in the Ziegfeld Follies!
556
00:50:46,476 --> 00:50:47,738
Congratulations!
557
00:50:51,081 --> 00:50:54,448
- All right, boys. I'll see you at the party.
- Oh, Marty.
558
00:50:54,618 --> 00:50:57,109
- Just great. Don't be late.
- I'm so excited.
559
00:50:57,354 --> 00:50:59,345
Told you I'd get the best for you.
560
00:50:59,523 --> 00:51:03,789
- Now maybe you'll have a little confidence.
- I do have. I always have had.
561
00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:07,157
- You're coming to the party?
- I'm sorry, I can't. Thank you.
562
00:51:07,330 --> 00:51:09,161
Pretty good, huh? Ziegfeld?
563
00:51:09,332 --> 00:51:12,824
- Will you be ready to leave?
- No, I'm not going to New York.
564
00:51:13,336 --> 00:51:15,497
- What?
- I'll meet you at the Plaza, Marty.
565
00:51:15,672 --> 00:51:19,130
Wait a minute, Ruthie. All right, Georgie,
take her to the car.
566
00:51:21,344 --> 00:51:22,572
What's the big idea?
567
00:51:22,746 --> 00:51:25,874
I've had another offer out in california.
Seems interesting.
568
00:51:26,049 --> 00:51:27,914
Well, there's gratitude for you.
569
00:51:28,085 --> 00:51:31,020
There's nothing I can do for Ruth.
She's made it.
570
00:51:31,288 --> 00:51:34,621
- Are you going?
- Yeah, I'm going.
571
00:51:34,791 --> 00:51:37,282
You bet your sweet life I'm going.
572
00:51:37,461 --> 00:51:41,363
She's gonna need me the longest day
she lives. No matter what you think!
573
00:51:42,165 --> 00:51:45,259
- No matter what I think?
- Yeah. And I know what you think.
574
00:51:45,435 --> 00:51:48,734
Her having to do with me.
I know what you think about me too.
575
00:51:48,905 --> 00:51:51,669
A jerk, a dumb mug, strictly for laughs.
576
00:51:51,842 --> 00:51:55,835
No. A cheap crook,
pushing people around.
577
00:52:01,084 --> 00:52:04,713
- I ever push Ruthie around?
- You will, pal. You will.
578
00:52:04,888 --> 00:52:08,881
Wise guy. You know everything.
You don't know nothing.
579
00:52:09,059 --> 00:52:12,085
You wouldn't know about
how I feel about Ruthie.
580
00:52:12,262 --> 00:52:16,892
A girl like that. You don't know nothing.
What I come from, the kind of a place.
581
00:52:17,067 --> 00:52:19,126
Same place I did, Snyder.
582
00:52:19,302 --> 00:52:22,066
Same place, same street,
same everything.
583
00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:25,299
Me and 1 ooo other guys,
and they don't turn out like you.
584
00:52:25,475 --> 00:52:27,409
And who's she going with?
585
00:52:27,577 --> 00:52:30,273
Answer me that, smart guy.
586
00:52:31,348 --> 00:52:33,282
Who is she going with?
587
00:52:36,786 --> 00:52:39,755
There's only one thing I got against you,
you poor slob.
588
00:52:39,923 --> 00:52:41,481
I'm sorry you quit.
589
00:52:41,658 --> 00:52:43,819
I would have liked to fire you.
590
00:52:53,336 --> 00:52:57,295
Come down the steps, now. That's it.
Good. Boys, come down farther. Good.
591
00:52:57,474 --> 00:53:01,001
Now, forward. That's it.
Arms, boys, arms. That's it.
592
00:53:01,178 --> 00:53:02,611
Keep coming forward.
593
00:53:02,779 --> 00:53:04,644
- I stay here, don't I?
- Right there.
594
00:53:04,814 --> 00:53:07,840
That's okay.
Just a little bit more forward. That's it.
595
00:53:08,018 --> 00:53:12,011
Fine. All right. Fellas, cross over here.
Cross over there.
596
00:53:12,189 --> 00:53:14,453
You stay there, Ruth.
We'll fix it later.
597
00:53:14,624 --> 00:53:18,560
That's it. Now, move forward a little.
That's it.
598
00:53:19,663 --> 00:53:22,894
Now, you go back. Back. That's it,
all the way back.
599
00:53:23,066 --> 00:53:25,398
Now you do the same thing.
Coming forward.
600
00:53:25,569 --> 00:53:27,662
Clear the way so she can get through.
601
00:53:27,837 --> 00:53:30,431
Come on, that's it.
That's good. Come on, boys.
602
00:53:30,607 --> 00:53:32,939
That's fine. Good. A little bit more.
603
00:53:33,109 --> 00:53:35,771
All right, all right, all right.
604
00:53:35,946 --> 00:53:38,915
- That's all.
- All right, lunch, everybody. Back at 2.
605
00:53:39,082 --> 00:53:42,415
- Same number, same people.
- Same mistakes.
606
00:53:42,586 --> 00:53:45,146
- I seem to do everything wrong.
- No, it's me.
607
00:53:45,322 --> 00:53:49,053
I haven't turned on the magic.
Take off the worried face and get lunch.
608
00:53:49,226 --> 00:53:52,354
It's in your dressing room.
Mr. Ziegfeld ordered it.
609
00:53:52,529 --> 00:53:53,757
Thank you.
610
00:53:53,930 --> 00:53:58,367
- Doesn't everyone get spoiled rotten?
- No, we just choose a select few.
611
00:53:58,535 --> 00:54:01,026
- Bye.
- Hey, Trent, don't go!
612
00:54:01,204 --> 00:54:03,434
- I wanna talk to you!
- Now, Marty...
613
00:54:04,908 --> 00:54:08,241
oh, Mr. Snyder. I didn't know you were
honoring us today.
614
00:54:08,411 --> 00:54:11,778
Today and every day!
And I still say it's lousy.
615
00:54:11,948 --> 00:54:14,314
All week I've been trying to tell you.
616
00:54:14,484 --> 00:54:18,750
Look at the way you've been handling her!
Guys prancing, hiding her. It's crummy.
617
00:54:18,922 --> 00:54:22,358
Sorry you don't like my work.
You'd better tell Mr. Ziegfeld.
618
00:54:22,525 --> 00:54:26,052
I'm telling you. And don't give me
that fish eye of yours either.
619
00:54:26,463 --> 00:54:29,864
I know what's good for her and what ain't.
Ought to by this time.
620
00:54:30,033 --> 00:54:34,527
- She never made a move I didn't tell her.
- I'm sure she found your advice invaluable.
621
00:54:34,704 --> 00:54:38,265
- Perhaps you're more talented than I.
- You ain't kidding. You stink!
622
00:54:38,441 --> 00:54:41,205
Fred! This is beginning to lose
its amusement value.
623
00:54:41,378 --> 00:54:43,175
- I'll take care of it.
- Beat it.
624
00:54:43,346 --> 00:54:47,544
I told you, I don't do business
with assistants. I'm talking to him.
625
00:54:47,717 --> 00:54:49,082
No, you're not.
626
00:54:49,252 --> 00:54:50,651
- Why, you...
- Just a minute.
627
00:54:50,820 --> 00:54:53,687
- Take your hands off me.
- Fred, let me.
628
00:54:58,762 --> 00:55:02,994
Are you out of your mind?
You can't act like a hoodlum in here.
629
00:55:03,166 --> 00:55:07,500
You think like Ruthie, it's some church?
Mention Ziegfeld, everybody kneels down?
630
00:55:07,671 --> 00:55:11,732
I'm thinking of her. What you're doing
to her, what you've been doing to her.
631
00:55:11,908 --> 00:55:14,843
- I gotta look out for her.
- They're looking out for her.
632
00:55:15,011 --> 00:55:18,811
They're the best in the business.
They'll make a big star out of her.
633
00:55:18,982 --> 00:55:22,008
But you can't shove them around.
634
00:55:22,185 --> 00:55:25,848
Yeah. You don't have to worry
about me.
635
00:55:27,290 --> 00:55:31,192
I don't wanna do nothing to hurt Ruthie,
but I'm just used to taking care.
636
00:55:31,361 --> 00:55:35,388
- I just can't sit and do nothing for her.
- I know, Marty.
637
00:55:35,565 --> 00:55:37,430
And I understand.
638
00:55:40,370 --> 00:55:43,203
- You wanna have a cup of coffee?
- Sure. I'd like it.
639
00:55:43,373 --> 00:55:47,673
- As a matter of fact, I'll buy you lunch.
- You'll buy?
640
00:55:47,844 --> 00:55:50,039
I'll buy. Come on.
641
00:59:33,269 --> 00:59:35,260
I think I'll go see her for a minute.
642
00:59:35,438 --> 00:59:38,498
No, wait, Marty. Wait till after the show.
643
00:59:41,544 --> 00:59:44,035
Very good, Ruth. Take another bow.
644
00:59:51,688 --> 00:59:54,350
You've got them, you've got them!
645
00:59:54,524 --> 00:59:56,992
Keep with it, Ruth. Keep belting!
646
00:59:57,560 --> 01:00:01,428
- Oh, Miss Etting, you were just wonderful!
- Thank you. We have to hurry.
647
01:00:07,036 --> 01:00:08,298
I'm sorry, Mr. Snyder.
648
01:00:08,471 --> 01:00:10,962
- I wanna see Miss Etting.
- Sorry, I got orders.
649
01:00:11,140 --> 01:00:13,734
You won't get in trouble.
I give you my guarantee.
650
01:00:13,910 --> 01:00:16,276
Wait a minute. Hey, Taylor, come here.
651
01:00:16,446 --> 01:00:18,539
I wanna see Ruth. Tell him it's okay.
652
01:00:18,715 --> 01:00:21,513
She only has a couple of minutes
between numbers.
653
01:00:22,151 --> 01:00:25,348
- Out of my way, punk!
- Marty, what is it? What's the matter?
654
01:00:25,521 --> 01:00:28,012
I wanna see you.
Big shot thinks he can stop me.
655
01:00:28,324 --> 01:00:30,383
If they don't want people backstage...
656
01:00:30,560 --> 01:00:33,654
What are you trying to give me?
I've seen people come in.
657
01:00:33,830 --> 01:00:36,162
You make exceptions. Everybody but me?
658
01:00:36,332 --> 01:00:41,702
- You asked for it, you got it. Satisfied?
- You been riding me from the beginning.
659
01:00:41,871 --> 01:00:44,271
- One more crack, I'll take you apart!
- Marty!
660
01:00:44,440 --> 01:00:47,375
Go away. Go play cops and robbers
where they're scared.
661
01:00:47,543 --> 01:00:49,636
This isn't chicago.
662
01:00:51,981 --> 01:00:53,175
Marty, stop it!
663
01:00:53,549 --> 01:00:56,746
Marty! Marty, stop it!
Please stop it!
664
01:00:56,919 --> 01:00:58,716
- All right, buster...
- Take it easy.
665
01:00:58,888 --> 01:01:02,415
Throw him out! Ruth, come on.
It's your cue.
666
01:01:02,825 --> 01:01:04,383
Call a doctor!
667
01:01:04,961 --> 01:01:06,189
All right.
668
01:01:06,763 --> 01:01:08,663
Ruth, get out there!
669
01:01:08,831 --> 01:01:11,925
- Go on!
- Outside, buster, come on.
670
01:01:14,037 --> 01:01:16,028
All right, buster, here we go.
671
01:01:16,305 --> 01:01:17,829
Go on!
672
01:01:21,210 --> 01:01:25,579
I don't care how you do it, Georgie!
Find a buyer and get rid of it.
673
01:01:25,982 --> 01:01:28,610
Get all you can. I'm depending on you.
674
01:01:29,986 --> 01:01:33,353
I'm pulling Ruth out of the show.
She's leaving Ziegfeld.
675
01:01:33,656 --> 01:01:36,489
- I'm what?
- I'm fed up!
676
01:01:36,959 --> 01:01:39,860
- Marty!
- I've had enough. It's up to here with me.
677
01:01:40,029 --> 01:01:43,123
From now on, I'm number one.
You won't be the loser!
678
01:01:43,299 --> 01:01:46,393
I've been on the phone.
I've got bookings for you.
679
01:01:46,569 --> 01:01:49,003
Barney, we gotta get out
of that contract.
680
01:01:49,172 --> 01:01:52,005
I'll have the dough. I'm selling the laundry.
681
01:01:52,175 --> 01:01:54,006
But there might just be an angle.
682
01:01:54,177 --> 01:01:56,668
Marty, we signed that contract
in good faith.
683
01:01:56,846 --> 01:01:59,815
But there is an angle.
A good one.
684
01:01:59,982 --> 01:02:02,473
You made us a nice little scandal tonight.
685
01:02:02,652 --> 01:02:04,813
Fred's in the hospital
with a broken jaw.
686
01:02:04,987 --> 01:02:06,614
He's lucky he's alive. So what?
687
01:02:06,789 --> 01:02:11,021
- Ziegfeld doesn't want me if you're around.
- That don't hurt my feelings!
688
01:02:11,194 --> 01:02:16,063
- He's a bigger jerk if he lets you go for free.
- Only I'm not going.
689
01:02:16,232 --> 01:02:19,360
I was a hit tonight. A big hit.
690
01:02:19,535 --> 01:02:22,800
It's a chance to be somebody.
It's the Follies. It's Broadway.
691
01:02:22,972 --> 01:02:25,600
It's a chance to meet people
and to make friends.
692
01:02:25,775 --> 01:02:29,108
It's what I've wanted, what I worked for.
Why should I leave it?
693
01:02:29,278 --> 01:02:31,508
It's what I want,
the way it's gonna be!
694
01:02:31,681 --> 01:02:34,616
- You can't tell me what to do!
- In a pig's eye, I can't!
695
01:02:34,784 --> 01:02:39,244
- You think I'm Georgie? You own me?
- You're right, I own you. Exactly right!
696
01:02:41,357 --> 01:02:42,915
Barney!
697
01:02:43,226 --> 01:02:44,853
Good night, Ruth.
698
01:02:45,928 --> 01:02:47,589
Good night, Marty.
699
01:02:56,272 --> 01:02:58,172
I'm sorry I got angry.
700
01:02:59,075 --> 01:03:02,636
We have a lot to talk about.
Let's not shout at each other.
701
01:03:02,812 --> 01:03:05,542
Don't use your ritzy Ziegfeld voice on me.
702
01:03:06,582 --> 01:03:11,349
- Make like you're in the 1 o-cent dance joint!
- But I'm not, Marty. That's the whole point!
703
01:03:11,521 --> 01:03:14,012
- I'm where I wanna be.
- I ain't good enough.
704
01:03:14,190 --> 01:03:16,249
- I didn't say that!
- Well, then, say it!
705
01:03:16,425 --> 01:03:18,188
Have some guts. Say it!
706
01:03:18,361 --> 01:03:20,852
All right! You don't belong here!
707
01:03:21,030 --> 01:03:24,397
- It's the way you act!
- The way I've always acted!
708
01:03:24,567 --> 01:03:25,898
I never heard you holler!
709
01:03:26,068 --> 01:03:28,969
It's rotten, dirty, and I hate it!
710
01:03:34,544 --> 01:03:36,375
You hate it?
711
01:03:39,015 --> 01:03:42,075
You're talking to me, baby. Me!
712
01:03:42,251 --> 01:03:43,946
Not Ziegfeld. I know you.
713
01:03:44,120 --> 01:03:46,782
You were right there,
working me, begging for more.
714
01:03:46,956 --> 01:03:48,890
Never mind how rotten or dirty!
715
01:03:49,058 --> 01:03:51,754
Maybe I did, but I don't want
to go on that way.
716
01:03:51,928 --> 01:03:54,726
- I knew tonight when...
- Tonight!
717
01:03:54,897 --> 01:03:58,663
The minute we got here, this started.
The minute we got in that theater.
718
01:03:58,835 --> 01:04:02,032
You saw the way they treated me.
Those fancy New York jokers.
719
01:04:02,205 --> 01:04:06,437
Like I was nothing. Small potatoes.
Like I had no right.
720
01:04:06,609 --> 01:04:08,975
I didn't say nothing. I waited.60089
