25
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:23,800
Well, that's it, Georgie.
26
00:02:24,310 --> 00:02:26,310
The band's through here.
We're canceled out.
27
00:02:26,310 --> 00:02:28,810
That's the 3rd time
on this tour.
28
00:02:28,820 --> 00:02:30,810
That's the 3rd time
on this tour.
What kind
of a manager are you?
29
00:02:30,810 --> 00:02:33,810
How do you expect
to draw crowds
in a town of this size?
30
00:02:33,820 --> 00:02:36,900
This wouldn't have happened
if you'd listened to me
a long time ago.
31
00:02:36,910 --> 00:02:39,400
This wouldn't have happened
if you'd listened to me
a long time ago.
I tell you,
all the big bands
are breaking up.
32
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,900
People aren't dancing anymore,
they're listening.
33
00:02:41,910 --> 00:02:44,910
Oh, so I'm supposed
to break up my band?
34
00:02:44,920 --> 00:02:46,910
Oh, so I'm supposed
to break up my band?
The public's going in
for sounds, Georgie.
35
00:02:46,910 --> 00:02:50,250
They want to hear
small groups, vocalists,
novelty combos.
36
00:02:50,530 --> 00:02:52,110
Sure.
That's right, Steve.
37
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,120
Put the blame on everyone
but yourself.
38
00:02:54,130 --> 00:02:57,120
Put the blame on everyone
but yourself.
As the band's manager,
you do a bad job
of selling us...
39
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:58,620
A bad job of selling?
40
00:02:58,620 --> 00:03:00,620
You listen to me.
The only thing that's
stayed up to date.
41
00:03:01,130 --> 00:03:02,960
In this band of yours
is your watch.
42
00:03:02,970 --> 00:03:05,040
In this band of yours
is your watch.
Why don't you get wise
to yourself, Georgie?
43
00:03:05,050 --> 00:03:06,550
Take a look at the figures
on record sales.
44
00:03:06,550 --> 00:03:09,050
And then look at
the size of the crowds
you've been drawing.
45
00:03:09,060 --> 00:03:11,550
And then look at
the size of the crowds
you've been drawing.
Maybe I should book you
into a schoolhouse
during fire drill.
46
00:03:11,550 --> 00:03:14,050
You might be able
to clear 'em out fast
with the kind of music...
47
00:03:14,060 --> 00:03:16,060
You're fired.
Good.
48
00:03:16,060 --> 00:03:18,690
I wouldn't want you to say
I was disloyal by quitting.
49
00:03:18,700 --> 00:03:20,780
I wouldn't want you to say
I was disloyal by quitting.
But take my advice,
Georgie.
50
00:03:20,780 --> 00:03:23,780
You wait around long enough
for a proof that the big band
business is dead,
51
00:03:23,780 --> 00:03:26,730
You'll be paying
the funeral expenses.
Good luck to you.
52
00:03:27,290 --> 00:03:27,880
Steve.
53
00:03:29,450 --> 00:03:31,450
Steve's giving you
the right hop, pop.
54
00:03:31,460 --> 00:03:33,960
I don't like funerals,
either.
55
00:03:33,970 --> 00:03:35,960
I don't like funerals,
either.
See you
around the cemetery.
56
00:03:39,460 --> 00:03:41,960
Corny, look,
there's no reason for you
to cut out on the band.
57
00:03:41,970 --> 00:03:43,970
Maybe hiller
can still get some work.
58
00:03:43,980 --> 00:03:45,970
Maybe hiller
can still get some work.
Stevie-boy,
the handwriting's
on the wall.
59
00:03:46,470 --> 00:03:49,970
So I either hock this thing
or turn it into a ferryboat.
60
00:03:49,970 --> 00:03:50,970
Where we goin'?
61
00:03:50,980 --> 00:03:52,980
New York.
62
00:03:52,980 --> 00:03:54,980
I think I can
get a job with one of
the big booking offices.
63
00:03:54,990 --> 00:03:56,980
I think I can
get a job with one of
the big booking offices.
You thinkin' of
Corinne Talbot?
64
00:03:56,980 --> 00:03:58,980
I wasn't thinkin'
of anybody.
65
00:03:58,980 --> 00:04:00,480
Do we leave
in the morning?
66
00:04:00,490 --> 00:04:01,990
Ready at 8:00.
67
00:04:01,990 --> 00:04:04,500
Soon as I put on
my traveling clothes
and lulubelle here.
68
00:04:05,490 --> 00:04:07,490
Puts on her g-string.
69
00:04:07,490 --> 00:04:08,490
All righty?
70
00:04:08,490 --> 00:04:09,990
All righty.
71
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,500
Awful lonesome up here.
72
00:04:18,500 --> 00:04:21,500
You sure you know
where you're goin'?
73
00:04:21,510 --> 00:04:24,510
According to the map,
and it's been right
the past 3 days,
74
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,010
According to the map,
and it's been right
the past 3 days,
We should hit a little town
called Strawberry Springs.
75
00:04:27,010 --> 00:04:29,010
In time to stay over
for the night.
76
00:04:29,010 --> 00:04:30,010
Sort of a shortcut.
77
00:04:30,010 --> 00:04:31,010
Hmm.
78
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:32,520
Sounds good enough to eat.
79
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,020
What does?
80
00:04:35,030 --> 00:04:37,020
What does?
Strawberry shortcut.
81
00:04:37,020 --> 00:04:40,520
Aw, Corny,
go back to sleep,
will you?
82
00:04:48,030 --> 00:04:51,530
Hey, Corny,
wake up.
We made it.
83
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:56,040
Strawberry Springs,
population 1,472.
84
00:04:56,050 --> 00:04:58,040
Strawberry Springs,
population 1,472.
This is a cute
little town, wasn't it?
85
00:04:59,540 --> 00:05:01,990
Now, if we can find
a hotel or a motel.
86
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,060
An old barn, anything.
I'm beat.
87
00:05:07,550 --> 00:05:09,050
Hey, man, move the wheels.
You're blockin' the road.
88
00:05:09,050 --> 00:05:11,050
Come on, daddy-o?
We're in a hurry.
89
00:05:11,060 --> 00:05:12,560
Looks like we're
holdin' up the works.
90
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,060
We go for 150 miles
without seeing a car.
91
00:05:15,070 --> 00:05:16,560
We go for 150 miles
without seeing a car.
The minute we stop,
road hog.
92
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:20,980
Come on!
93
00:05:20,990 --> 00:05:22,510
Come on!
Let's go, let's go, come on!
94
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:31,520
Steve,
95
00:05:31,530 --> 00:05:35,530
The whole 1,472
must be out at once.
96
00:05:35,540 --> 00:05:37,530
The whole 1,472
must be out at once.
Yeah, look at 'em.
97
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:39,530
Hey,
there's a motel up ahead.
98
00:05:39,530 --> 00:05:41,530
Let's hope
they have a room.
Yeah.
99
00:05:41,540 --> 00:05:44,550
With hot and cold...
hot and cold running,
I know the joke.
100
00:05:58,520 --> 00:05:59,520
Evenin', neighbor.
101
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:00,100
Evenin'.
102
00:06:00,690 --> 00:06:02,190
Your sign says
you have a vacancy.
103
00:06:02,190 --> 00:06:03,190
Yep.
104
00:06:03,690 --> 00:06:05,690
We don't get many tourists
in this neck of the woods.
105
00:06:05,690 --> 00:06:07,690
Stayin' long?
106
00:06:07,700 --> 00:06:09,650
Nah, just overnight.
Probably pull out
in the morning.
107
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:11,700
Say, pop,
where's everybody goin'?
108
00:06:11,710 --> 00:06:13,700
Say, pop,
where's everybody goin'?
Uh, the young 'uns?
109
00:06:13,700 --> 00:06:15,700
This is Saturday night,
neighbor.
110
00:06:15,700 --> 00:06:19,200
The young 'uns wouldn't
Miss their dance
at the meetin' hall.
111
00:06:19,210 --> 00:06:21,580
You mean,
they're all going
to a dance?
112
00:06:21,580 --> 00:06:24,000
This is Saturday night.
113
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,000
Maybe nobody told them
that dance band music
was dead.
114
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,500
It's probably
a dance for squares.
115
00:06:29,510 --> 00:06:30,470
It's probably
a dance for squares.
Square dance?
116
00:06:30,470 --> 00:06:32,500
That's what I said.
117
00:06:32,500 --> 00:06:36,000
They've probably been doin'
that kind of stuff up here
for the last 100 years.
118
00:06:36,010 --> 00:06:37,510
Got a match?
119
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:41,510
Got a match?
Just the same, they dance,
and I'd like to know why.
120
00:06:43,180 --> 00:06:45,180
You think anybody
would mind if we went?
121
00:06:45,180 --> 00:06:47,680
I reckon your money's
as good as anybody's.
122
00:06:47,690 --> 00:06:49,190
Good. Show us to
our cabin, will you?
123
00:06:49,190 --> 00:06:50,690
We'll get cleaned
up a little bit.
124
00:06:50,700 --> 00:06:53,190
We'll get cleaned
up a little bit.
It's over there, 12.
She's open. Go right in.
125
00:06:53,190 --> 00:06:54,690
Ok, thank you.
126
00:06:59,830 --> 00:07:01,330
"Dance for squares."
127
00:07:02,330 --> 00:07:06,330
Man, them 2 cats
don't dig the most at all.
128
00:07:06,340 --> 00:07:08,340
At all.
129
00:07:08,350 --> 00:07:10,340
At all.

130
00:07:14,350 --> 00:07:16,850
Hey, Steve, we must be out
of our cotton-pickin' minds.
131
00:07:16,850 --> 00:07:19,350
We should be gettin' some
sleep instead of comin' here.
132
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:20,850
We should be gettin' some
sleep instead of comin' here.
Maybe so.
133
00:07:20,850 --> 00:07:23,350
But something's
getting these people
out of their houses.

I'm gonna find out
what it is.

Ah, what kind of
Cornball music
can they have.
136

Ah, what kind of
Cornball music

In a burg like this?
137
00:07:28,860 --> 00:07:30,360
Probably Joe Grubnic.

And his "makes you

orchestra.
139

Corny, how long has it been
since you've seen a dance hall

150

About 3 years ago
at Roseland.
151

you can sell for big money,
315
00:16:17,970 --> 00:16:19,840
Not just onions and turnips.
316
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,720
I hadn't thought dancing
the rock 'n' roll was talent.
317
00:16:22,730 --> 00:16:24,310
Take my word for it, honey.
318
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:26,310
Take my word for it, honey.
Any gal that can make
a guy's eyes pop out.
319
00:16:26,310 --> 00:16:28,650
The way you can
has plenty of talent.
320
00:16:28,650 --> 00:16:30,730
And nobody can
demonstrate this dance.
321
00:16:30,730 --> 00:16:32,730
Better than you
and your brother.
322
00:16:32,740 --> 00:16:35,240
What do you say?
Do we ride the
gravy train together?
323
00:16:35,250 --> 00:16:37,740
What do you say?
Do we ride the
gravy train together?
How much gravy do you expect
for your trouble?
324
00:16:37,740 --> 00:16:41,020
Well, we'll... we'll split,
60-40.
325
00:16:41,030 --> 00:16:42,090
Corny and I'll take 40.
326
00:16:42,450 --> 00:16:43,530
40%?
327
00:16:43,540 --> 00:16:45,110
40%?
You shouldn't
get more than 10.
328
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:47,370
Now where did you get
that kind of information?
329
00:16:47,370 --> 00:16:48,750
I've read variety.
330
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,840
I've read variety.
Then you should know,
my dear young lady,
that I'm not an agent.
331
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:53,540
I'm a manager.
332
00:16:53,540 --> 00:16:56,540
It's a common thing
for managers to get 40%,
sometimes even 50.
333
00:16:57,540 --> 00:16:59,040
We'll have to think about it.
334
00:16:59,050 --> 00:17:00,130
All right.
How long?
335
00:17:00,140 --> 00:17:03,100
All right.
How long?
Until you come down
from that 40%.
336
00:17:03,100 --> 00:17:05,270
In that case,
we'll both think about it.
337
00:17:05,270 --> 00:17:07,850
My name, incidentally,
is Lisa Johns.
This is my brother, Jimmy.
338
00:17:08,360 --> 00:17:09,360
Hi.
339
00:17:09,360 --> 00:17:10,360
My father owns
the motel.
340
00:17:10,860 --> 00:17:13,320
That's where you can find us
when you've made up your mind.
341
00:17:13,860 --> 00:17:14,860
Let's go, Jimmy.
342
00:17:18,370 --> 00:17:19,370
Don't look at me,
Mr. Hollis.
343
00:17:19,370 --> 00:17:20,870
If Lisa won't go
for the 60-40,
344
00:17:20,870 --> 00:17:22,870
There's nothin'
I can do about it.
345
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:24,370
There's nothin'
I can do about it.
Well,
what does she want?
346
00:17:24,370 --> 00:17:25,870
You got me.
347
00:17:25,870 --> 00:17:28,370
All I know
is we always get 100%
of the onions and turnips.
348
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,380
Leave it to a woman
to make all the trouble.
349
00:17:34,380 --> 00:17:36,380
Look, why don't you
forget the whole thing?
350
00:17:36,380 --> 00:17:38,380
How are you gonna get booking
for a new outfit like that.
351
00:17:38,890 --> 00:17:40,890
Without going
to Corinne Talbot?
352
00:17:40,890 --> 00:17:42,390
Don't worry.
I'll find a way.
353
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:43,890
Don't worry.
I'll find a way.
Sure.
354
00:17:43,890 --> 00:17:45,390
Corinne's agency
has every top hotel.
355
00:17:45,390 --> 00:17:46,890
And nightclub
tied up for bands.
356
00:17:46,890 --> 00:17:48,890
And acts from New York
to California.
357
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:53,400
You won't get anywhere
selling The Comets
into some broken-down dive.
358
00:17:53,410 --> 00:17:55,900
You won't get anywhere
selling The Comets
into some broken-down dive.
In that case, I'll just
go to Corinne, that's all.
359
00:17:55,900 --> 00:17:57,400
Definitely.
360
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,270
You know, she won't
even let you in her office
unless you agree to marry her.
361
00:18:00,270 --> 00:18:03,360
Oh, she's probably forgotten
all about that by now.
362
00:18:03,360 --> 00:18:05,860
Besides, what's one thing
got to do with the other?
363
00:18:06,360 --> 00:18:08,360
Business is business.
364
00:18:08,370 --> 00:18:11,870
Corny, I'm so sure
about that Haley bunch
and that girl.
365
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:14,870
Corny, I'm so sure
about that Haley bunch
and that girl.
If I could just get 'em
signed to a contract
and promote 'em right,
366
00:18:14,870 --> 00:18:16,750
We got a sensation
on our hands.
367
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:18,840
You want to take it
from old Cornball?
368
00:18:18,850 --> 00:18:21,340
You want to take it
from old Cornball?
With the face and the figure
on that Lisa doll,
369
00:18:21,350 --> 00:18:24,380
She's probably been
promoted by experts.
370
00:18:24,390 --> 00:18:27,380
She's probably been
promoted by experts.
Oh, I'm not talking
about that kind of...
371
00:18:27,380 --> 00:18:30,300
Hey, maybe I am.
Sure.
372
00:18:30,890 --> 00:18:32,890
Sure. Romance, Corny.
373
00:18:32,900 --> 00:18:35,560
Sure. Romance, Corny.
That way I may be
able to soften her up
into making the deal.
374
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:37,140
Hey, now wait a minute.
375
00:18:37,140 --> 00:18:39,640
These farmers up here
have shotguns.
376
00:18:39,650 --> 00:18:43,150
Ugh, get off of it.
She's no farmer's daughter.
377
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:46,650
Ugh, get off of it.
She's no farmer's daughter.
You heard her say so yourself.
Her father owns the motel.
378
00:18:46,650 --> 00:18:49,150
In that case,
he probably has 2 shotguns.
379
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:50,130
Eh?
380
00:18:50,660 --> 00:18:51,660
Eh.
381
00:18:51,670 --> 00:18:52,570
Eh.
Oh, boy.
382
00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:58,160
Ah.
383
00:19:00,170 --> 00:19:01,170
Get a load of that air.
384
00:19:01,670 --> 00:19:02,670
Take it easy, lad.
385
00:19:03,170 --> 00:19:05,670
What do you wanna do?
Frighten your lungs to death?
Ha.
386
00:19:11,310 --> 00:19:12,760
There's your shotgun bait.
387
00:19:15,650 --> 00:19:16,650
Lisa.
388
00:19:18,150 --> 00:19:19,650
Good morning.
Good morning.
389
00:19:19,650 --> 00:19:21,650
You're up and around
kind of early, aren't you?
390
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,110
It's 9:30.
Most folks have
been up since 5:00.
391
00:19:24,110 --> 00:19:25,160
5:00?
392
00:19:25,170 --> 00:19:27,660
5:00?
I told you.
It's the air.
Nobody can sleep.
393
00:19:27,660 --> 00:19:30,160
Mr. Hollis, this is
my friend Holly Jenkins.
Hi.
394
00:19:30,660 --> 00:19:32,160
Corny Lasalle.
Hello, Mr. Lasalle.
395
00:19:32,170 --> 00:19:34,170
How do you do?
How about
showing me the town?
396
00:19:34,170 --> 00:19:36,180
Oh, I'm sorry.
I was just on
my way for a swim.
397
00:19:36,670 --> 00:19:37,670
Oh, you have a swimming pool?
398
00:19:37,670 --> 00:19:39,170
You might call it that.
399
00:19:39,170 --> 00:19:40,670
I'd be glad to
show you the town.
400
00:19:40,670 --> 00:19:41,670
I'll tell you what,
Holly.
401
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,180
You show Corny the town,
402
00:19:43,180 --> 00:19:45,190
And Lisa will show
me the swimming pool.
Uh...
403
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,180
I'll get my trunks, huh?
404
00:19:47,180 --> 00:19:51,180
Does your friend
always do things
on the spur of the moment?
405
00:19:51,190 --> 00:19:53,690
Depends on
who's wearin' the spurs.
406
00:20:05,700 --> 00:20:08,200
That didn't take long,
did it?
407
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,200
No, just long enough.
408
00:20:11,710 --> 00:20:13,710
I was wondering
how you'd look
in a bathing suit.
409
00:20:14,210 --> 00:20:15,720
I bet you were.
410
00:20:16,790 --> 00:20:19,290
I must have my imagination
overhauled.
411
00:20:19,300 --> 00:20:21,800
You, uh, even look better
than what I had dreamed up.
412
00:20:21,810 --> 00:20:24,300
You, uh, even look better
than what I had dreamed up.
Thanks.
413
00:20:24,300 --> 00:20:27,300
Smell the strawberries?
They grow wild around here.
414
00:20:27,300 --> 00:20:28,300
You come here often?
415
00:20:28,310 --> 00:20:30,310
Often as I can.
416
00:20:30,310 --> 00:20:32,810
That must be
what makes them wild.
417
00:20:32,820 --> 00:20:35,260
That must be
what makes them wild.
You don't waste much time.
418
00:20:35,260 --> 00:20:38,810
It's my imagination.
It's in a hurry.
419
00:20:38,820 --> 00:20:41,820
Men's imaginations
are always faster
than they are.
420
00:20:41,830 --> 00:20:44,320
Men's imaginations
are always faster
than they are.
Oh, what do you
mean by that?
421
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:47,320
You're leading up to
the point when you think
you can kiss me.
422
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,320
Oh, well,
I don't know about that.
423
00:20:49,330 --> 00:20:50,830
It's all right.
424
00:20:53,830 --> 00:20:55,330
There, it's finished.
425
00:20:55,330 --> 00:20:58,000
Now we can talk
about other things.
426
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,000
Who wants to talk
about other things?
427
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:01,620
You do.
428
00:21:01,620 --> 00:21:03,620
To you, I'm just
a silly, romantic girl.
429
00:21:04,120 --> 00:21:06,120
Who'll want to give you 40%
when you should have 10.
430
00:21:06,130 --> 00:21:08,140
No, wait.
I didn't say anything...
431
00:21:11,130 --> 00:21:14,770
Perhaps you won't mind
starting your argument at 30%?
432
00:21:14,770 --> 00:21:17,770
Oh, now, young lady,
if you think you're gonna...
433
00:21:19,770 --> 00:21:21,270
20%?
434
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,480
You're taking advantage.
435
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:25,480
Isn't that what
you wanted to do to me?
436
00:21:25,490 --> 00:21:27,480
Isn't that what
you wanted to do to me?
And you're also
too suspicious.
437
00:21:31,990 --> 00:21:33,820
10%.
438
00:21:33,830 --> 00:21:36,400
10%.
Now, look, if you think
I'm a silly, romantic guy.
439
00:21:36,410 --> 00:21:39,910
Who's gonna take 10%
when he should have 40...
440
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,410
Who's gonna take 10%
when he should have 40...
Ok, you said it.
That's where I heard it.
441
00:21:42,910 --> 00:21:44,910
Do you object to
the way I do business?
442
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:47,420
I don't know yet.
443
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:53,640
20%?
444
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:59,260
Let's be fair
about this. 25.
445
00:22:04,350 --> 00:22:06,320
Then we have a deal?
446
00:22:06,820 --> 00:22:07,820
Mr. Hollis.
447
00:22:07,820 --> 00:22:08,820
Steve.
448
00:22:08,820 --> 00:22:10,320
Steve.
449
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:12,160
You are leveling with us?
450
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,240
Honey, managing bands
is my business.
451
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,740
If I don't get them work,
I don't eat.
452
00:22:17,750 --> 00:22:19,250
All right,
it's a deal.
453
00:22:19,260 --> 00:22:21,250
All right,
it's a deal.
I'll leave for New York
the first thing
in the morning.
454
00:22:21,750 --> 00:22:24,750
Now, Corny will stay here
and work out some more
routines with you, hmm?
455
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:26,710
I think I'm scared.
456
00:22:26,710 --> 00:22:29,760
There's a lot
of world outside
of Strawberry Springs.
457
00:22:29,770 --> 00:22:31,260
There's a lot
of world outside
of Strawberry Springs.
Ah, don't worry, honey.
458
00:22:31,260 --> 00:22:34,680
Why, the public
will dig you the most.
Is that the way you say it?
459
00:22:35,270 --> 00:22:36,270
Yeah.
460
00:22:36,270 --> 00:22:38,770
Remember what
Christopher Columbus
once said:
461
00:22:38,780 --> 00:22:40,770
Remember what
Christopher Columbus
once said:
"The world is no square."
462
00:22:41,770 --> 00:22:43,270
Oh, I'm sorry.
463
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:04,740
Why, Mr. Hollis.
464
00:23:05,210 --> 00:23:06,240
Hi, Lynn.
465
00:23:06,250 --> 00:23:07,750
It's good
to see you again.
466
00:23:07,750 --> 00:23:08,750
Nice seeing you.
467
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:10,750
Nice seeing you.
I hope Miss Talbot
feels the same way.
468
00:23:10,750 --> 00:23:12,250
Well, we can find out.
469
00:23:13,250 --> 00:23:14,750
Mr. Hollis to see you.
470
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:16,720
Send him in.
471
00:23:16,730 --> 00:23:19,260
Send him in.
No earthquake.
Go right in.
472
00:23:19,260 --> 00:23:21,760
Said the spider to the fly.
Thank you.
473
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,980
Hello, Stinker.
474
00:23:27,990 --> 00:23:31,500
You didn't throw it back out,
so I guess it's all right
to come in.
475
00:23:32,410 --> 00:23:33,500
Hi.
Hi.
476
00:23:34,490 --> 00:23:35,990
I thought you'd be sore.
477
00:23:35,990 --> 00:23:37,490
What about?
478
00:23:37,490 --> 00:23:39,490
Men refuse
to marry me every day.
479
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,000
Only those in
the home for old men.
480
00:23:42,010 --> 00:23:44,000
Only those in
the home for old men.
And you.
481
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,000
Steve, something's
been bothering me.
482
00:23:46,500 --> 00:23:48,500
Why did you lead me
to believe you loved me?
483
00:23:48,510 --> 00:23:50,510
Well, let's put it
this way.
484
00:23:50,510 --> 00:23:54,010
Why did you lead me to believe
you loved all of this
more than you could any man?
485
00:23:54,020 --> 00:23:56,510
Why did you lead me to believe
you loved all of this
more than you could any man?
What's wrong with it?
It's made me rich.
486
00:23:56,510 --> 00:23:58,510
I offered you
$20,000 a year.
487
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:01,220
And a chance,
if you worked out right,
to become a partner.
488
00:24:01,220 --> 00:24:02,800
Is that bad?
489
00:24:02,810 --> 00:24:04,800
Is that bad?
No, it's good.
490
00:24:04,810 --> 00:24:07,310
Except that
I had my own ideas
on how to become a success.
491
00:24:07,310 --> 00:24:08,820
Or failure.
492
00:24:09,310 --> 00:24:10,310
Yes.
493
00:24:10,810 --> 00:24:13,310
Except that I at least
had my choice.
494
00:24:13,310 --> 00:24:15,400
You're stubborn.
495
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,400
You know, Talbot enterprises
is the biggest agency
in show business.
496
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,790
I don't go around
offering a deal like that
to every man I meet.
497
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,160
Perhaps you should.
498
00:24:25,170 --> 00:24:28,990
Perhaps you should.
You're a cinch to come up
with something better
than old Steve.
499
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:30,090
Then why did you come here?
500
00:24:30,580 --> 00:24:31,580
Business.
501
00:24:31,580 --> 00:24:33,210
A favor?
502
00:24:33,220 --> 00:24:36,840
No, I... I think I can
make some money for you.
503
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,230
I never discuss business
during business hours.
504
00:24:40,590 --> 00:24:42,560
That's logical.
505
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:44,560
How about over dinner?
I have to go to
the chez suzette tonight.
506
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,060
To talk to Tony Martinez
about his new booking.
507
00:24:47,060 --> 00:24:49,560
Oh, don't worry about it.
It's on me.
508
00:24:49,570 --> 00:24:51,580
A business expense.
509
00:24:52,570 --> 00:24:54,770
Ok, you've got a deal.
510
00:24:54,770 --> 00:24:58,270
I have a new gown
that shows off my vanity
in the right places.
511
00:24:58,280 --> 00:24:59,940
I know what you mean.
512
00:24:59,950 --> 00:25:01,940
I know what you mean.
Don't be too stubborn,
Steve.
513
00:25:01,950 --> 00:25:04,620
I'd hate to see you
in the home for old men.
514
00:25:11,620 --> 00:25:14,200
♪ [cueros
by Tony Martinez and His Band
playing]
515
00:27:52,670 --> 00:27:55,180
Well, my pet,
I hope you haven't
forgotten your mambo.
516
00:27:55,670 --> 00:27:57,170
No, it's a little
bit like swimming.
517
00:27:57,170 --> 00:27:59,170
You throw a man in the water,
he'll swim.
518
00:27:59,170 --> 00:28:00,670
He doesn't want
to drown, you know?
519
00:28:01,170 --> 00:28:03,670
I'm not sure
I like the comparison.
520
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,190
Steve,
you're trying
to be a crusader.
521
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:07,930
With an unknown band
such as The Comets.
522
00:28:07,930 --> 00:28:10,930
Tony Martinez is going to be
the top novelty outfit
in the country.
523
00:28:10,930 --> 00:28:12,930
That's why
he's doing business.
524
00:28:12,940 --> 00:28:16,450
After he finishes here
he goes to the West River Club
with The Platters vocal group.
525
00:28:16,940 --> 00:28:17,720
It's a hot group.
526
00:28:19,310 --> 00:28:21,310
Martinez gave
the public something new.
527
00:28:21,310 --> 00:28:22,810
That's why they want him.
528
00:28:22,810 --> 00:28:25,310
Now Haley's got
something new, too.
529
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,320
Look, Corinne, I...
530
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:28,320
I'm not
an amateur in this business,
you know?
531
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:29,820
I didn't just
get off of the bus.
532
00:28:29,830 --> 00:28:31,320
I didn't just
get off of the bus.
I've been around
a little while.
533
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,570
I think I can pick a winner
as well as the next guy.
534
00:28:33,570 --> 00:28:36,320
You've picked
a few in your day.
535
00:28:36,330 --> 00:28:37,790
Then why don't you do this?
536
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:39,830
Then why don't you do this?
Book the Haley combo
into the right place.
537
00:28:40,330 --> 00:28:41,830
Give 'em a showcase.
538
00:28:41,830 --> 00:28:45,330
And give Lisa Johns
and her brother a chance
to demonstrate the dance.
539
00:28:45,340 --> 00:28:47,340
This Lisa's a doll, you know?
540
00:28:47,340 --> 00:28:50,010
Looks great,
young, fresh, sparkles.
541
00:28:50,010 --> 00:28:51,100
She can't Miss.
542
00:28:51,590 --> 00:28:54,090
Just how old
is this doll?
543
00:28:54,590 --> 00:28:57,680
Well, she's 20, 21.
What's the difference?
544
00:28:57,680 --> 00:28:59,680
I'm not sure I know.
545
00:29:00,180 --> 00:29:02,570
Suppose we forget
about the dance act
and talk about the band.
546
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:05,350
But they work together.
547
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,410
Look, it takes
a great dance team
to demonstrate rock 'n' roll.
548
00:29:08,410 --> 00:29:10,910
The young folks
all over the country
want to see how it's done,
549
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:12,410
The young folks
all over the country
want to see how it's done,
So they can do it, too.
550
00:29:12,410 --> 00:29:14,030
Now, if it's
demonstrated right...
551
00:29:14,030 --> 00:29:16,530
And if I don't book
the band and the act?
552
00:29:18,620 --> 00:29:20,000
Then there's other agents.
553
00:29:20,790 --> 00:29:22,100
You know better.
554
00:29:24,170 --> 00:29:26,010
We'll manage.
555
00:29:27,290 --> 00:29:28,790
Shall we leave now?
556
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:30,300
Still stubborn.
557
00:29:30,300 --> 00:29:33,300
Let me think overnight about
Mr. Haley and The Comets.
558
00:29:33,310 --> 00:29:34,930
Let me think overnight about
Mr. Haley and The Comets.
We can decide
in the morning, huh?
559
00:29:40,970 --> 00:29:42,470
They're playing our song.
560
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:45,980
I never heard it before.
561
00:29:45,990 --> 00:29:48,480
I never heard it before.
Then from now on
it'll be our song.
562
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:49,980
Come on, darling.
563
00:30:13,510 --> 00:30:14,510
Mike?
564
00:30:14,510 --> 00:30:15,510
Yeah.
565
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:17,010
Yeah.
Will you come in, please?
566
00:30:17,010 --> 00:30:18,010
Mm-hmm.
567
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:27,520
That booking for
the Mansfield School
for girls up in Hartford,
568
00:30:28,020 --> 00:30:29,020
2 weeks from today.
569
00:30:29,020 --> 00:30:30,520
A graduation prom.
570
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,990
Tony Martinez plays
the date before he goes
to the West River Club.
571
00:30:32,990 --> 00:30:36,530
We still need
an inexpensive band
to alternate with Martinez.
572
00:30:36,530 --> 00:30:38,530
Yeah,
something high-class.
573
00:30:38,530 --> 00:30:41,500
This Mansfield School
is the most exclusive
in the country.
574
00:30:41,500 --> 00:30:43,530
Calls for a real
sweet combo.
575
00:30:43,540 --> 00:30:46,040
You know,
heavy on the violins,
light on the brass.
576
00:30:46,050 --> 00:30:47,540
You know,
heavy on the violins,
light on the brass.
The booking mean
much to us?
577
00:30:47,540 --> 00:30:49,040
One shot.
578
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,540
Some of these one-nighters
are more nuisance
than they're worth.
579
00:30:51,540 --> 00:30:53,040
That's what
I was thinking.
580
00:30:53,050 --> 00:30:54,550
I have the alternate band.
581
00:30:55,010 --> 00:30:56,050
Who are they?
582
00:30:56,050 --> 00:30:59,050
A new combination.
They're called Haley's Comets.
583
00:30:59,050 --> 00:31:01,550
Soft music, sweet, refined.
584
00:31:01,550 --> 00:31:04,550
Just the thing for
the dear little girls
of Mansfield.
585
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:06,060
Ok, boss,
if you say so.
586
00:31:06,070 --> 00:31:08,060
Ok, boss,
if you say so.
You know how they'll
be received as well as I do.
587
00:31:08,060 --> 00:31:11,110
I think I know just
how they'll be received.
588
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:16,620
You know, these, uh,
these lily-white hands
are working too hard.
589
00:31:16,630 --> 00:31:19,120
You know, these, uh,
these lily-white hands
are working too hard.
So you'd rather
put them in dishwater?
590
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:21,620
Maybe you'd like
playing housewife.
591
00:31:21,620 --> 00:31:25,120
Look, boss,
we're in the right business.
592
00:31:25,130 --> 00:31:27,140
We could write
beautiful music together.
593
00:31:27,630 --> 00:31:30,830
We could book ourselves
into heaven 52 weeks a year.
594
00:31:30,830 --> 00:31:31,910
Hmm.
595
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:34,420
Such nice words.
596
00:31:34,420 --> 00:31:36,840
Steve could never think
of something like that to say.
597
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:38,920
Steve Hollis?
598
00:31:38,930 --> 00:31:39,930
He's in town.
599
00:31:42,930 --> 00:31:43,930
Well, I suppose
I can wait for you.
600
00:31:44,430 --> 00:31:46,060
As long as you
can wait for him.
601
00:31:46,070 --> 00:31:48,150
I'm changing my campaign.
602
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:49,650
I'm changing my campaign.
I'm going to play rough.
603
00:31:49,650 --> 00:31:51,150
You think
that'll get him?
604
00:31:51,150 --> 00:31:52,650
I don't know.
605
00:31:52,660 --> 00:31:54,660
But I'll know
a lot more when we go
to Hartford in 2 weeks.
606
00:31:54,660 --> 00:31:56,670
To hear Haley's Comets.
607
00:32:12,790 --> 00:32:13,790
Lisa.
608
00:32:14,790 --> 00:32:15,790
Steve.
609
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:16,800
Hi, honey.
610
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:18,300
Oh, Steve.
611
00:32:24,300 --> 00:32:25,800
Hey, you did that
like you meant it.
612
00:32:25,810 --> 00:32:27,810
We greet all our guests here
like that.
613
00:32:27,810 --> 00:32:29,810
Stevie-boy.
Hi, Corn.
614
00:32:29,820 --> 00:32:30,810
Stevie-boy.
Hi, Corn.
Hi, Steve.
Hi, Jimmy.
615
00:32:30,810 --> 00:32:32,810
Well, are we
big Broadway stars,
or aren't we?
616
00:32:33,310 --> 00:32:36,310
Well, let's just say
that, uh, you'll be
close to Broadway.
617
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:37,320
How close?
618
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:39,320
Hartford, Connecticut.
Hartford?
619
00:32:39,330 --> 00:32:41,820
Hartford, Connecticut.
Hartford?
Yeah, it's a one-night stand.
It's a high school prom.
620
00:32:41,820 --> 00:32:44,320
Tony Martinez and the band
will be there.
No kidding.
621
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,320
Steve, I found somethin' else
while you were gone.
622
00:32:46,330 --> 00:32:48,830
Another outfit. With Lisa
and Jimmy, The Comets,
623
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:50,330
Another outfit. With Lisa
and Jimmy, The Comets,
And this new bunch,
we have our own unit.
624
00:32:50,330 --> 00:32:52,910
What's the name of the act?
Freddie Bell
and the Bellboys.
625
00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:54,420
When they don't work
nights over at the mill,
626
00:32:54,420 --> 00:32:56,420
They come to our
Saturday night dances, too.
627
00:32:56,430 --> 00:32:57,920
They come to our
Saturday night dances, too.
Are they good?
Oh, yeah.
628
00:32:57,920 --> 00:32:59,920
All right. Now look,
this is a solid chance.
629
00:32:59,920 --> 00:33:02,640
The top booking agent
in the country will be
at Hartford to see you.
630
00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:05,220
The top booking agent.
Corinne Talbot.
631
00:33:05,230 --> 00:33:07,230
Yeah, Corinne Talbot.
632
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,730
Yeah, Corinne Talbot.
You sold your soul
to the devil.
633
00:33:09,730 --> 00:33:11,730
You sold out
for a mess of porridge.
634
00:33:11,730 --> 00:33:13,230
Who's Corinne Talbot?
635
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:16,990
I told you, porridge.
Only she's no mess.
636
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:18,440
I told you, porridge.
Only she's no mess.
Uh, Corny's crazy.
637
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:20,990
Look,
this is a great opportunity.
638
00:33:20,990 --> 00:33:23,990
This can be
the start of everything
for you kids and the band.
639
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,000
Steve,
we're in no hurry.
640
00:33:26,010 --> 00:33:28,500
Steve,
we're in no hurry.
If you don't
want to do business
with this Talbot woman,
641
00:33:28,500 --> 00:33:31,000
We can find other ways.
642
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:33,670
That's what I told her.
No, it's all set.
643
00:33:33,670 --> 00:33:36,760
Now, we're gonna
rehearse every night
until we leave.
644
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:38,760
Corny, you tell Haley
and the boys.
Yeah.
645
00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:40,760
Come on, Corn. You can use
the phone in the office.
646
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:42,760
Bully.
647
00:33:42,770 --> 00:33:44,270
You know,
when you get there,
648
00:33:44,770 --> 00:33:47,280
Hartford will be closer
to Broadway than ever before.
649
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:29,430
Steve, I'm worried.
650
00:34:29,430 --> 00:34:31,430
This doesn't look like
a rock 'n' roll crowd to me.
651
00:34:31,430 --> 00:34:33,430
You're right.
652
00:34:33,430 --> 00:34:35,430
Still,
the Talbot agency should
know what they're doing.
653
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:40,440
I wouldn't trust
that Corinne as far as
I could throw lulubelle.
654
00:34:40,450 --> 00:34:42,940
I wouldn't trust
that Corinne as far as
I could throw lulubelle.
Maybe they just want
a contrast in the music, huh?
655
00:34:42,940 --> 00:34:45,440
Man, is it going to be
a contrast.
656
00:34:45,450 --> 00:34:46,450
When do we go on?
657
00:34:46,950 --> 00:34:48,960
As soon as Martinez
finishes this number.
658
00:34:49,450 --> 00:34:50,580
I'll go get
the boys ready.
659
00:35:07,930 --> 00:35:11,380
Senor, if we keep on
playing music like this
all night,
660
00:35:11,390 --> 00:35:13,940
We'll have much trouble
in staying awake.
661
00:35:13,950 --> 00:35:16,440
We'll have much trouble
in staying awake.
Just remember
what we've been told.
662
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,940
There is to be
no exciting music.
663
00:35:19,950 --> 00:35:21,950
Just music.
664
00:35:21,950 --> 00:35:24,460
Si, senor.
It's a living.
665
00:35:37,660 --> 00:35:39,660
Why did you
wait until tonight,
when we get to Hartford.
666
00:35:40,130 --> 00:35:42,630
To tell me that Haley's Comets
are a jive outfit?
667
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:45,220
Those school people
will throw them out bodily.
668
00:35:45,230 --> 00:35:47,800
Those school people
will throw them out bodily.
I own
Talbot enterprises, Mike.
669
00:35:47,810 --> 00:35:51,310
I think I'm entitled
to tell you what I please.
670
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:52,810
I think I'm entitled
to tell you what I please.
This'll make fools
out of us.
671
00:35:53,310 --> 00:35:55,810
Just out of Steve Hollis.
672
00:35:55,820 --> 00:35:59,320
You weren't kidding.
You are playing rough.
673
00:35:59,330 --> 00:36:04,320
You weren't kidding.
You are playing rough.
I want Steve broken,
in pocketbook
and in spirit.
674
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:07,320
You think you'll want
a man who has to crawl
to you on his knees?
675
00:36:07,330 --> 00:36:09,830
I'll decide that
when the time comes.
676
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:11,830
I'll decide that
when the time comes.
I want that band to fail,
and I want that girl.
677
00:36:11,830 --> 00:36:14,330
To go back to wherever
she came from.
678
00:36:14,830 --> 00:36:16,330
A girl you've
never even seen.
679
00:36:16,340 --> 00:36:18,340
I heard Steve
talk about her.
680
00:36:18,340 --> 00:36:21,350
It wasn't what he said.
It was the way he said it.
681
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:27,840
I wonder if you'd, uh,
go to all of that trouble
for me?
682
00:36:28,350 --> 00:36:30,770
You mean, you'd still want me
after what I just said?
683
00:36:31,180 --> 00:36:32,770
Some people love murderers.
684
00:36:35,270 --> 00:36:36,770
There's the hotel.
685
00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:04,960
Well, that's it.
The Comets go on next.
686
00:37:04,970 --> 00:37:05,980
Steve,
I'm scared stiff.
687
00:37:06,470 --> 00:37:07,470
Ah, relax, honey.
688
00:37:07,470 --> 00:37:09,970
Just imagine you're still
in Strawberry Springs, hmm?
689
00:37:20,430 --> 00:37:21,430
The Bellboys
set to go on?
690
00:37:21,430 --> 00:37:22,930
Soon as we
call 'em.
691
00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:26,270
Ok, The Comets will
warm 'em up first, huh?
692

We've had about
2 dozen turn downs.
879
00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:58,680
And we got
about 2 dozen bucks
left to our name.

You put 2 and 2 together,
and what do you get?

But I think
we can push 'em back.
961
00:51:37,420 --> 00:51:39,420
And I think we can
get your guys in here,
962
00:51:39,420 --> 00:51:41,420
And I know they're
gonna do a great job.
963
00:51:41,930 --> 00:51:45,940
You just remember one thing,
that Alan Freed did
remember the Alamo.
964
00:51:46,430 --> 00:51:47,930

Boss, you can't

Boss, you can't
go on ignoring this
rock 'n' roll stuff anymore.
Every hotel and club
in the country
is wiring for information.
977
00:52:24,720 --> 00:52:26,300
The only information
you can give them.
978
00:52:26,300 --> 00:52:28,550
Is that we don't handle
that kind of music.
979
00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:30,140
Corinne, for Pete's sake.
980
00:52:30,150 --> 00:52:32,140
Corinne, for Pete's sake.
How far are you gonna carry
this feud with Steve?
981
00:52:32,140 --> 00:52:35,640
An agency has to
keep up with the times,
or fall on its face.
982
00:52:36,650 --> 00:52:38,100
Corinne, listen to me.
983
00:52:38,100 --> 00:52:40,150
Steve's in love
with Lisa Johns.
984
00:52:40,150 --> 00:52:41,900
He's not even
looking at other women.
985
00:52:41,900 --> 00:52:44,070
So you think
it's all decided.
986
00:52:44,660 --> 00:52:46,160
Lisa wants a ring
on her finger.
987
00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:48,660
You want to put a ring
through Steve's nose.
988
00:52:48,670 --> 00:52:51,080
You want to put a ring
through Steve's nose.
Which do you think
he'd rather have?
989
00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:55,080
The thing to do, dear Mike,
is to see that Mr. Hollis
doesn't have a choice.
990
00:52:55,580 --> 00:52:58,030
Call Steve
and ask him to come
over this afternoon.
991
00:52:58,040 --> 00:52:59,620
Tell him
it's very important.
992
00:52:59,630 --> 00:53:01,120
Tell him
it's very important.
Still playing rough?
993
00:53:01,620 --> 00:53:04,620
Dear, dear Mike,
just leave those telegrams
on your way out.
994
00:53:12,130 --> 00:53:14,220
Boys, I'll tell you what.
Let's try this.
995
00:53:18,220 --> 00:53:19,220
Ok?
Ok.
996
00:53:19,220 --> 00:53:20,720
All right.
Let's try it.
997
00:53:27,730 --> 00:53:29,730
All right, I think
we've got it now.

Hey, Steve,
phone call for you.
1043
00:55:59,380 --> 00:56:00,880
Oh, thank you.
You're welcome.
1044
00:56:01,390 --> 00:56:03,390
Hello.
1045
00:56:03,390 --> 00:56:06,900
Oh, Mike? Hiya, Mike.
It's Mike Dodd.
1046
00:56:07,890 --> 00:56:10,390
Yeah, boy,
how are you?
1047
00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:11,900
Oh, yeah,
it's goin' great.
1048
00:56:11,900 --> 00:56:14,410
Yeah, things are really
lookin' up for the kids.
1049
00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:17,400
No, no, we haven't
set any engagements.
1050
00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:18,900
After the West River Club.
No.
1051
00:56:18,900 --> 00:56:21,400
We've been holding out
for the right spot.
1052
00:56:21,410 --> 00:56:22,410
Yeah.
1053
00:56:23,410 --> 00:56:24,420
Oh, Corinne?
1054
00:56:25,630 --> 00:56:27,720
Yeah, I could get in
to see her this afternoon,
1055
00:56:29,210 --> 00:56:30,710
If it's strictly business.
1056
00:56:31,720 --> 00:56:34,230
All right, you tell her
I'll be in this afternoon.
1057
00:56:34,720 --> 00:56:36,750
Ok, Mike.
1058
00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:38,760
How do you like that?
Corinne's after us now.
1059
00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:41,510
What do we
need her for?
1060
00:56:41,520 --> 00:56:43,090
What do we
need her for?
For one thing, Jimmy.
1061
00:56:43,090 --> 00:56:44,590
She handles class bookings.
1062
00:56:44,600 --> 00:56:46,820
I don't want to see you kids
working in dives.
1063
00:56:46,820 --> 00:56:48,520
Hey, wait a minute.
1064
00:56:48,520 --> 00:56:50,990
Oh, I don't mean here.
1065
00:56:50,990 --> 00:56:54,740
I suppose from now on
we won't be able to afford
you guys anymore.
1066
00:56:54,750 --> 00:56:57,820
I suppose from now on
we won't be able to afford
you guys anymore.
Well, first of all,
we don't even know
what Corinne's deal is yet.
1067
00:56:57,830 --> 00:57:00,700
Whatever it is,
we'd work for nothing
if you'd ask us, Mr. Freed.
1068
00:57:00,700 --> 00:57:02,110
Thank you, honey.
1069
00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:03,610
Thank you, honey.
You kids have all
been just great.
1070
00:57:03,620 --> 00:57:05,620
And you made more
money for this place.
1071
00:57:05,620 --> 00:57:07,370
Than they've ever made
in their history.
1072
00:57:07,380 --> 00:57:09,670
Than they've ever made
in their history.
And don't forget to
tell Corinne Talbot that.
1073
00:57:09,670 --> 00:57:12,170
She'll hear it so many times,
she'll think it's
a broken record.
1074
00:57:12,170 --> 00:57:14,170
Wonderful.
Congratulations,
everybody.
1075
00:57:14,180 --> 00:57:15,180
Thank you.
1076
00:57:19,180 --> 00:57:20,680
All right,
1077
00:57:20,680 --> 00:57:23,680
So I was wrong
about The Comets
and your Lisa Johns.
1078
00:57:23,690 --> 00:57:26,690
I'll tell you what I'll do.
I'll make you a deal.
1079
00:57:26,690 --> 00:57:29,140
Turn your contract
with the unit over
to the agency,
1080
00:57:29,150 --> 00:57:30,640
Turn your contract
with the unit over
to the agency,
And you come in
as a partner.
1081
00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:34,190
Split 50-50 with me
on everything.
1082
00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:37,200
Sell my outfit to you,
so you can sell them
down the river?
1083
00:57:37,210 --> 00:57:39,200
Sell my outfit to you,
so you can sell them
down the river?
You'll never get
a deal like that
anywhere else.
1084
00:57:39,700 --> 00:57:41,200
Maybe not.
1085
00:57:41,200 --> 00:57:43,700
No, Corinne,
I think your idea
of a partnership.
1086
00:57:43,710 --> 00:57:45,710
Has too many
strings attached.
1087
00:57:45,710 --> 00:57:47,210
Then it's no soap?
1088
00:57:47,220 --> 00:57:48,210
Then it's no soap?
No soap.
1089
00:57:49,710 --> 00:57:50,710
What do you want?
1090
00:57:52,210 --> 00:57:55,210
Bookings.
The best you've got.
1091
00:57:55,220 --> 00:57:58,720
What if we make a 3-year deal
without a partnership.
1092
00:57:58,730 --> 00:58:02,220
What if we make a 3-year deal
without a partnership.
For The Comets,
the dance team,
and the Bellboys?
1093
00:58:02,220 --> 00:58:05,220
With a good chance
that I'll get them on records.
1094
00:58:06,230 --> 00:58:08,230
You're startin'
to make a little sense.
1095
00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:10,230
You're startin'
to make a little sense.
I'm prepared to
make such a deal.
1096
00:58:10,230 --> 00:58:13,730
With the unit opening
in San Francisco.
1097
00:58:13,740 --> 00:58:16,740
Tell you what I'll do.
I'll talk to the kids,
and I'll get back to you.
1098
00:58:16,740 --> 00:58:18,250
If they're smart,
they'll take it.
1099
00:58:18,690 --> 00:58:20,240
It'll guarantee
their future.
1100
00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:21,740
Hmm.
1101
00:58:21,740 --> 00:58:24,240
It won't do your
future any harm, either, hmm?
1102
00:58:25,250 --> 00:58:26,750
See you later, hon.
Ok.
1103
00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:35,760
Get me Lisa Johns
on the phone, please.
1104
00:58:37,260 --> 00:58:39,260
I'm sure you didn't
ask me to have lunch.
1105
00:58:39,260 --> 00:58:40,760
For social reasons,
Miss Talbot.
1106
00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:42,680
Steve told you about the deal,
of course.
Yes.
1107
00:58:42,680 --> 00:58:45,760
You know what
that 3-year contract could
mean to you and the boys?
1108
00:58:45,770 --> 00:58:49,270
$100,000 the first year,
$200,000 the 2nd,
1109
00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:50,720
$100,000 the first year,
$200,000 the 2nd,
And $300,000 the 3rd.
1110
00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:52,770
It seems almost
too good to be true.
1111
00:58:52,770 --> 00:58:54,360
There's one thing,
however.
1112
00:58:54,360 --> 00:58:56,270
You're an investment,
Lisa.
1113
00:58:56,280 --> 00:58:59,360
You'll become
an idol of the teenagers,
you'll develop a big public,
1114
00:58:59,370 --> 00:59:00,860
You'll become
an idol of the teenagers,
you'll develop a big public,
Hundreds of fan clubs.
1115
00:59:01,370 --> 00:59:03,370
College boys will be
voting you.
1116
00:59:03,370 --> 00:59:06,380
The girl they'd most want
to get caught in a
compromising situation with.
1117
00:59:06,870 --> 00:59:08,870
My agency will be
spending a fortune.
1118
00:59:08,870 --> 00:59:10,870
On your publicity
and exploitation.
1119
00:59:10,880 --> 00:59:12,880
The bigger you
and the boys become,
1120
00:59:12,880 --> 00:59:14,380
The more money
we'll all make.
1121
00:59:14,390 --> 00:59:16,380
The more money
we'll all make.
But you're the only
girl with the outfit.
1122
00:59:16,880 --> 00:59:19,380
The only one
that means s-e-x.
1123
00:59:19,380 --> 00:59:21,380
Like a movie star.
1124
00:59:21,390 --> 00:59:22,890
I want my
investment protected.
1125
00:59:22,890 --> 00:59:24,400
Of course,
I can understand that.
1126
00:59:24,890 --> 00:59:26,890
All right, then.
These are the facts.
1127
00:59:26,890 --> 00:59:31,390
If you get married,
you won't be worth a dime
to me or yourself.
1128
00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:33,350
The kind of public
you're going to get.
1129
00:59:33,350 --> 00:59:35,400
Won't want to think
of you as a married woman.
1130
00:59:35,410 --> 00:59:38,400
Won't want to think
of you as a married woman.
In short, you will
have to sign a clause.
1131
00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:40,400
That for the life
of the contract, 3 years,
1132
00:59:40,910 --> 00:59:42,410
You will not marry.
1133
00:59:42,410 --> 00:59:44,910
For the life of the contract,
I'm not to get married.
1134
00:59:44,920 --> 00:59:47,410
For the life of the contract,
I'm not to get married.
That's what
the contract will say?
Exactly.
1135
00:59:47,410 --> 00:59:49,410
I don't know why
you're worried,
Miss Talbot.
1136
00:59:49,410 --> 00:59:51,580
No one's asked
me to marry them.
He hasn't...
1137
00:59:51,580 --> 00:59:54,170
I mean, they haven't?
1138
00:59:54,170 --> 00:59:56,170
Just the same.
You never know
when some man.
1139
00:59:56,670 --> 00:59:58,170
Is going to come out
from under a rock.
1140
00:59:58,170 --> 01:00:01,170
And pop the nasty
question at you.
1141
01:00:01,180 --> 01:00:03,520
You'll have to
sign that clause,
or the deal is off.
1142
01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:05,760
If I kept all the boys
from making a lot of money.
1143
01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:08,350
Just because
I wanted to be married,
1144
01:00:08,350 --> 01:00:11,180
I'd certainly be
a terrible heel,
wouldn't I?
1145
01:00:11,440 --> 01:00:13,860
The heeliest heel
that ever was.
1146
01:00:13,860 --> 01:00:16,440
How long will it take
to make up the contracts?
1147
01:00:16,450 --> 01:00:19,440
How long will it take
to make up the contracts?
4 days, 5, perhaps.
I'll get on them
right away.
1148
01:00:19,940 --> 01:00:22,890
All right, Miss Talbot,
I'll sign the contracts.
Just the way you want them.
1149
01:00:23,230 --> 01:00:25,780
I knew you were smart.
Then it's all settled.
1150
01:00:25,780 --> 01:00:28,320
You and the boys
leave for San Francisco
at the end of the week.
1151
01:00:28,320 --> 01:00:29,820
Fine.
1152
01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:32,700
Just one word
of advice, Lisa.
Have fun.
1153
01:00:32,710 --> 01:00:34,800
You'd be amazed at
the number of men
around the country.

Oh, boy.

1166

Corinne,
1168
01:01:14,210 --> 01:01:16,250
Corinne,
I came up with
an idea last night
that wouldn't let me sleep.
1169
01:01:16,750 --> 01:01:17,750
About me, I hope.
1170
01:01:17,750 --> 01:01:18,750
About money.
1171
01:01:18,750 --> 01:01:21,250
Well, that's 2nd best.
1172
01:01:21,260 --> 01:01:22,760
Now, the returns are in.
1173
01:01:22,760 --> 01:01:25,260
You and I both know
what rock 'n' roll has done.
1174
01:01:25,270 --> 01:01:27,260
You and I both know
what rock 'n' roll has done.
It's got people on
their feet again, dancing.
1175
01:01:27,260 --> 01:01:29,760
Druggists are selling
more Corn plasters than ever.
1176
01:01:29,760 --> 01:01:31,260
So what's your big idea?
1177
01:01:31,270 --> 01:01:33,300
A rock 'n' roll jamboree.
1178
01:01:33,310 --> 01:01:35,350
A rock 'n' roll jamboree.
Keep goin'.
1179
01:01:35,350 --> 01:01:37,440
Now for weeks,
I've had other bands.
1180
01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:39,940
And vocal groups making up
rock 'n' roll arrangements.
1181
01:01:39,940 --> 01:01:42,440
Now as I see it,
we take a bunch
of these good acts,
1182
01:01:42,440 --> 01:01:44,440
Put them all
together into
one big show,
1183
01:01:44,450 --> 01:01:47,460
And we'll give
them a night of jive
they've never seen before.
1184
01:01:47,950 --> 01:01:50,450
Now to get
the movement going
coast to coast,
1185
01:01:50,450 --> 01:01:52,450
I think I can talk
one of the big networks.
1186
01:01:52,450 --> 01:01:54,950
Into televising us
on a national hookup.
1187
01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:56,960
Son,
you hit the jackpot.
1188
01:01:56,960 --> 01:02:00,960
Now look,
Los Angeles should be
the right spot for this.
1189
01:02:00,970 --> 01:02:02,960
Now look,
Los Angeles should be
the right spot for this.
They go for these
big jazz concerts.
1190
01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:04,460
And I think
they'll eat this one up.
1191
01:02:04,970 --> 01:02:05,970
Who do you want
to stage it?
1192
01:02:05,970 --> 01:02:07,970
Alan Freed.
1193
01:02:07,980 --> 01:02:09,970
Alan Freed.
You know,
he's handled a
lot of big shows.
1194
01:02:09,970 --> 01:02:10,970
Sold.
1195
01:02:10,970 --> 01:02:12,970
Freed can leave
for Los Angeles immediately.
1196
01:02:12,970 --> 01:02:14,970
And work with
my coast office.
1197
01:02:14,980 --> 01:02:17,990
Now the first week in July
we rent a great big hall.
1198
01:02:18,480 --> 01:02:19,980
All the kids
will be out of school.
1199
01:02:19,980 --> 01:02:22,930
And I think every kid
from 6 to 96 will go
for this in a big way.
1200
01:02:22,930 --> 01:02:24,480
July it is.
1201
01:02:24,490 --> 01:02:28,490
Freed goes to the coast,
I stay here in New York,
set up the networks.
1202
01:02:28,500 --> 01:02:29,990
Freed goes to the coast,
I stay here in New York,
set up the networks.
You're a genius, lad.
1203
01:02:30,490 --> 01:02:31,490

so he can forget you?

One minute.
1229
01:03:42,310 --> 01:03:45,810
I suppose you think
I'm 7 kinds of a witch
for the things I did to you.
1230
01:03:46,320 --> 01:03:47,850
8 kinds.
1231
01:03:47,860 --> 01:03:50,430
8 kinds.
But considering why
you did what you did,
1232
01:03:50,440 --> 01:03:52,020
I suppose
I should be flattered.
1233
01:03:52,030 --> 01:03:53,070
I suppose
I should be flattered.
Naturally.
1234

you're not really
a bad sort at all.

If you would, uh,
not try to run
everyone else's life.
1237
01:04:02,170 --> 01:04:03,840
It's the mother instinct.
1238
01:04:03,840 --> 01:04:06,420
Mothers always
do the thinking
for their children.
1239
01:04:06,430 --> 01:04:08,370

for their children.
That really puts

No, I mean it.
1241

Every time the alarm
goes off in the morning,
1242
01:04:11,840 --> 01:04:15,340
I begin to wonder
about this idea of
being a career woman.
1243
01:04:15,350 --> 01:04:17,440
Well, you're the boss.
Why set the alarm?
1244
01:04:18,600 --> 01:04:20,100
You're being evasive.

all been waiting for.
Here is one of the most
phenomenal acts in the history
of show business.
1345
01:10:19,040 --> 01:10:21,040
Bill Haley and His Comets.
1346
01:10:29,300 --> 01:10:31,300
Thank you, Alan.
Thank you, kids.
1347
01:10:31,310 --> 01:10:32,810
Let's rock 'n' roll
1348
01:10:32,810 --> 01:10:35,180
with a real swingin'
little tune
called Rudy's Rock.

♪ [Rudy's Rock
by Bill Haley playing]
1350
01:13:36,410 --> 01:13:39,000
It's a hit, Corinne.
It's a big fat hit.
1351
01:13:39,990 --> 01:13:42,490
Now, let's talk about us.
1352
01:13:42,500 --> 01:13:45,000
Oh, everything's
been said, Corinne.
1353
01:13:45,010 --> 01:13:47,000
Oh, everything's
been said, Corinne.
From now on,
there's nothing
more to talk about.
1354
01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:48,000
Why not?
1355
01:13:49,000 --> 01:13:50,370
Watch the stage.
1356
01:13:52,790 --> 01:13:55,290
Buddy-buddies,
before we go
into our big finale,
1357
01:13:55,790 --> 01:13:57,790
I'd like to introduce
that living doll,
1358
01:13:57,800 --> 01:14:01,800
That real cool
rock 'n' rollin' chick
who wants to say a few words,
1359
01:14:01,810 --> 01:14:04,130
That real cool
rock 'n' rollin' chick
who wants to say a few words,
Lisa Johns and
her brother, Jimmy.
1360
01:14:06,520 --> 01:14:08,100
Thank you,
rock 'n' rollers.
1361
01:14:08,110 --> 01:14:10,110
I just want
to say how thrilled
everybody is backstage.
1362
01:14:10,110 --> 01:14:12,120
With the way you've
received our show.
1363
01:14:15,530 --> 01:14:18,610
And I especially
want to thank
our wonderful emcee,
1364
01:14:18,620 --> 01:14:20,960
Alan Freed,
who helped us put
the show together.
1365
01:14:24,240 --> 01:14:25,740
And an equally
wonderful man.
1366
01:14:25,750 --> 01:14:28,240
And an equally
wonderful man.
Without whom,
there would be no
rock 'n' roll at all,
1367
01:14:28,240 --> 01:14:30,160
My husband,
Steve Hollis.
1368
01:14:34,630 --> 01:14:37,630
What was that
child talking about?
She said "husband."
1369
01:14:37,630 --> 01:14:39,130
She ought to know.
1370
01:14:39,140 --> 01:14:40,640
Then you are married?
1371
01:14:40,640 --> 01:14:42,140
Legally.
1372
01:14:42,150 --> 01:14:44,140
Legally.
I have a contract
with that girl.
1373
01:14:44,140 --> 01:14:46,140
I'll sue you, Steve,
for every cent you have.
1374
01:14:46,640 --> 01:14:48,640
I'll ruin you
and her and that band.
1375
01:14:48,650 --> 01:14:51,150
They'll never make
another appearance
on a stage.
1376
01:14:51,150 --> 01:14:53,650
No one breaks a contract
with Corinne Talbot.
1377
01:14:53,660 --> 01:14:56,150
No one breaks a contract
with Corinne Talbot.
Oh, I don't think you'll
sue anyone, Corinne.
1378
01:14:56,150 --> 01:14:59,150
If you recall,
it took 5 days to
draw that contract.
1379
01:14:59,660 --> 01:15:02,670
And there's a clause
that says Lisa's not
to be married for 3 years.
1380
01:15:03,160 --> 01:15:04,160
Well, she won't.
1381
01:15:04,160 --> 01:15:06,160
But you just said that...
she can't.
1382
01:15:06,160 --> 01:15:09,330
You see, we were married
before the contracts
were signed.
1383
01:15:11,420 --> 01:15:14,420
Outsmarted by an amateur
from Strawberry Springs.
1384
01:15:14,420 --> 01:15:15,920
I'll tell you one thing,
though.
1385
01:15:15,920 --> 01:15:18,620
I think you and Mike
will be very happy together.
1386
01:15:18,630 --> 01:15:21,210
You know,
you wouldn't be
such a bad guy.
1387
01:15:21,220 --> 01:15:23,510
You know,
you wouldn't be
such a bad guy.
If you didn't try to
run everybody else's life.
1388
01:15:24,800 --> 01:15:28,300
Then you're not angry?
No, what good would it do?
1389
01:15:28,300 --> 01:15:30,300
Hmm, Mike Dodd, huh?
1390
01:15:30,300 --> 01:15:33,800
Well, it's a good
thing I had another man
warming up in the bullpen.
1391
01:15:33,810 --> 01:15:35,810
Touche.
1392
01:15:35,820 --> 01:15:37,220
