1
00:01:25,003 --> 00:01:28,029
Here comes the sugar man.
This'll make the last payment on my car.
2
00:01:28,106 --> 00:01:30,506
Yeah, but it's all worn out.
3
00:01:30,575 --> 00:01:33,009
Where you been all this time?
4
00:01:36,314 --> 00:01:38,407
Hartwell.
5
00:01:38,483 --> 00:01:40,314
Donegan.
6
00:01:40,385 --> 00:01:41,977
Yoo-hoo!
7
00:01:44,455 --> 00:01:46,389
Man, give me that fortune.
8
00:01:47,525 --> 00:01:49,618
What are you gonna do
with all that money?
9
00:01:49,694 --> 00:01:52,788
I'm gonna buy a herd of chorus girls
and make 'em dance on my bed.
10
00:01:55,333 --> 00:01:58,268
Ninety-five, a hundred...
11
00:01:58,336 --> 00:02:00,861
five, six...
12
00:02:00,938 --> 00:02:03,702
seven... a hundred and eight dollars.
13
00:02:03,775 --> 00:02:05,436
Good week, Vince.
14
00:02:06,411 --> 00:02:07,708
You ready?
15
00:02:07,779 --> 00:02:09,212
Yeah.
16
00:02:15,353 --> 00:02:18,845
Vince likes that kind of punishment.
Someday he's gonna learn.
17
00:02:29,067 --> 00:02:30,728
Okay, drinks are on me.
18
00:02:30,802 --> 00:02:34,795
That's the kind of athletic contest
I appreciate. He's game, that boy.
19
00:02:34,872 --> 00:02:36,840
I'll get you next week.
20
00:02:36,908 --> 00:02:39,001
You bet, Vince.
21
00:02:42,547 --> 00:02:44,674
Buy me a drink, cowboy?
22
00:02:44,749 --> 00:02:47,547
- You're buyin', aren't you?
- Jake, draw one for the lady.
23
00:02:47,618 --> 00:02:51,145
- I'll take a shot, if you can afford it.
- I can afford it.
24
00:02:55,593 --> 00:02:58,061
I saw you here last week
cashing your check.
25
00:02:58,129 --> 00:03:00,996
- Yes, ma'am.
- Hey, you got nice hair.
26
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,691
I get through work around 4:00.
27
00:03:04,769 --> 00:03:07,795
- Why, you two-bit little tramp!
- Hey!
28
00:03:08,906 --> 00:03:11,898
She didn't mean anything.
I bought a round for the house.
29
00:03:11,976 --> 00:03:13,967
- Keep outta this.
- She wasn't outta line.
30
00:03:14,045 --> 00:03:18,072
- I said, keep your mouth outta this.
- Leave her alone.
31
00:03:18,149 --> 00:03:22,051
Look, buster. You want some teeth
knocked out, just keep it up.
32
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,189
You scare me.
Woman beaters always scare me.
33
00:03:25,189 --> 00:03:25,587
You scare me.
Woman beaters always scare me.
34
00:03:25,656 --> 00:03:29,353
Why don't you run along, sonny,
before I muss up your hair?
35
00:03:50,381 --> 00:03:53,179
Vince, he's had enough!
He's had enough!
36
00:04:03,461 --> 00:04:05,395
Hey, kid, you can hit.
37
00:04:09,367 --> 00:04:12,530
Somebody call a doctor.
This guy's hurt bad.
38
00:04:18,443 --> 00:04:21,708
You've been found guilty by a jury of
your peers of the crime of manslaughter.
39
00:04:22,647 --> 00:04:25,081
You're hereby remanded to
the custody of the sheriff...
40
00:04:25,149 --> 00:04:27,413
and you'll be transported
to the state penitentiary...
41
00:04:27,485 --> 00:04:31,444
to serve a term of not less than one,
nor more than ten years of imprisonment.
42
00:04:35,593 --> 00:04:37,026
Court dismissed.
43
00:04:48,272 --> 00:04:50,297
A tough woodchuck, huh?
44
00:04:50,374 --> 00:04:53,707
Well, that's what we're here for,
to teach you hooligans.
45
00:04:53,778 --> 00:04:57,214
It says here you killed a man
with your bare hands.
46
00:04:57,281 --> 00:04:59,909
We don't use hands here.
We use guns.
47
00:04:59,984 --> 00:05:04,683
I'll tell you another thing we use for
cons who don't toe the mark: The whip.
48
00:05:04,755 --> 00:05:07,189
- Understand?
- Yes.
49
00:05:07,258 --> 00:05:08,782
Sir!
50
00:05:08,860 --> 00:05:10,555
Yes, sir.
51
00:05:14,065 --> 00:05:17,091
I'm puttin' you in with
Hunk Houghton, an old-timer.
52
00:05:20,104 --> 00:05:23,096
- All right, that's all.
- Thank you, sir.
53
00:05:36,521 --> 00:05:38,250
When do I finish my processing?
54
00:05:38,322 --> 00:05:40,722
No hurry.
You got plenty of time.
55
00:06:07,685 --> 00:06:09,209
Hang it up.
56
00:06:10,288 --> 00:06:13,815
- Put it up where you got it.
- Sure.
57
00:06:13,891 --> 00:06:16,257
Didn't know you're
touchy about it.
58
00:06:16,327 --> 00:06:18,921
I live here.
I'm touchy about everything.
59
00:06:20,798 --> 00:06:22,732
You're on my bunk.
60
00:06:33,311 --> 00:06:35,142
Is this okay?
61
00:06:36,814 --> 00:06:39,840
- My name's Vince Everett.
- You know my name.
62
00:06:39,917 --> 00:06:42,112
Glad to know you.
63
00:06:42,186 --> 00:06:43,619
Yeah.
64
00:06:44,822 --> 00:06:46,756
- You're not through processing.
- Not yet.
65
00:06:46,824 --> 00:06:49,759
- What about your haircut?
- What about it?
66
00:06:49,827 --> 00:06:51,761
You want a good one
or a fresh fish special?
67
00:06:51,829 --> 00:06:53,922
- A fresh fish...
- A fresh fish special.
68
00:06:53,998 --> 00:06:57,957
They hack it up. A good one will
cost you three packs of cigarettes.
69
00:06:58,035 --> 00:06:59,969
I haven't got three packs.
70
00:07:00,037 --> 00:07:02,528
- You got any money?
- Nope. Spent it all on my lawyer.
71
00:07:08,245 --> 00:07:10,907
I'll loan you three packs,
you pay back four.
72
00:07:12,216 --> 00:07:14,980
Kind of silly savin' up
cigarettes like that.
73
00:07:19,757 --> 00:07:21,247
You'll learn.
74
00:07:42,947 --> 00:07:45,575
Okay, tell me about
the cigarettes.
75
00:07:46,450 --> 00:07:48,384
I run a business, sonny.
76
00:07:48,452 --> 00:07:51,512
I'm what you might call
one of the top cons in this stir.
77
00:07:51,589 --> 00:07:54,456
I got representatives in the
tailor shop, commissary, sick bay...
78
00:07:54,525 --> 00:07:56,789
kitchen and shoe shop,
and they all work for me.
79
00:07:56,861 --> 00:08:00,854
You want a good haircut? I fix it.
A good pair of shoes? You ask me.
80
00:08:00,931 --> 00:08:03,365
Like everything else,
you gotta pay for it.
81
00:08:03,434 --> 00:08:05,402
This here is
the coin of the realm.
82
00:08:05,469 --> 00:08:07,027
Where do you get cigarettes?
83
00:08:07,104 --> 00:08:10,130
You trade with guys who don't smoke,
you buy 'em, you steal 'em...
84
00:08:10,207 --> 00:08:12,300
just like you did
for money on the outside.
85
00:08:12,376 --> 00:08:15,539
I'm broke. I'll never
accumulate any cigarettes.
86
00:08:15,613 --> 00:08:19,276
The state pays you 18 cents a day.
That's a start.
87
00:08:19,350 --> 00:08:23,218
- Play ball with me, and I'll stake you.
- That's real nice of you.
88
00:08:23,287 --> 00:08:26,279
I can't have my cell mate
lookin' like a bum.
89
00:08:26,357 --> 00:08:28,518
I got a reputation
to live up to.
90
00:08:28,592 --> 00:08:31,152
- You been assigned a job yet?
- Not yet.
91
00:08:31,228 --> 00:08:35,494
You'll probably draw the coal yard.
It's hard and it's dirty.
92
00:08:35,566 --> 00:08:39,935
Maybe I can get you out of it, get you
assigned to the print shop where I am.
93
00:08:40,004 --> 00:08:41,995
How many packs?
94
00:08:42,073 --> 00:08:44,906
Five cartons of cigarettes.
I'll loan 'em to you.
95
00:08:44,975 --> 00:08:46,909
At what interest rate?
96
00:08:46,977 --> 00:08:49,309
You're learnin' fast.
97
00:08:49,380 --> 00:08:53,111
The interest rate won't be too high.
You just do what I say when I say it.
98
00:08:53,184 --> 00:08:55,744
That's the basis
of my organization.
99
00:09:00,224 --> 00:09:02,351
- No, thanks.
- Huh?
100
00:09:02,426 --> 00:09:04,394
I'll take my chances.
101
00:09:04,462 --> 00:09:06,726
Suit yourself.
102
00:09:06,797 --> 00:09:10,289
- Thanks anyway, though.
- It's no skin off my behind.
103
00:09:20,411 --> 00:09:23,312
Hey, guard,
how about a water call?
104
00:09:23,380 --> 00:09:26,474
One water call every two hours.
You oughta know the rules by now.
105
00:09:26,550 --> 00:09:28,780
- In this heat?
- Get back to work.
106
00:09:30,287 --> 00:09:31,720
That new warden, the jerk!
107
00:09:32,757 --> 00:09:35,851
Ever since he come here,
this can ain't fit to live in.
108
00:09:38,729 --> 00:09:41,163
- Hey, Houghton!
- I hear you callin'.
109
00:09:41,232 --> 00:09:44,326
What are we gonna do about conditions?
I've had a bellyful.
110
00:09:44,401 --> 00:09:48,167
I got less than a deuce to go.
I'm gonna suffer my little heart out.
111
00:09:48,239 --> 00:09:50,741
- Not me. I'm gonna do somethin'.
- What a lousy dump!
112
00:09:50,741 --> 00:09:51,002
- Not me. I'm gonna do somethin'.
- What a lousy dump!
113
00:09:51,075 --> 00:09:53,669
I'd better quiet
those steers down.
114
00:10:04,054 --> 00:10:08,582
I'm up in the mornin'
with the risin' sun
115
00:10:08,659 --> 00:10:12,720
I work like a slave
'til the day is done
116
00:10:12,797 --> 00:10:16,927
Just workin' and sleepin'
and nothin' more
117
00:10:17,001 --> 00:10:21,233
And every day is just
like the day before
118
00:10:21,305 --> 00:10:25,241
One more day
119
00:10:25,309 --> 00:10:29,336
One more day
120
00:10:29,413 --> 00:10:33,543
One day older
and nearer to my Lord
121
00:10:33,617 --> 00:10:37,576
One more day
122
00:10:37,655 --> 00:10:41,318
Listen to the prayer
of a lonely man
123
00:10:41,392 --> 00:10:45,795
Livin' day to day
the best he can
124
00:10:45,863 --> 00:10:49,492
Give me the strength
to carry my load
125
00:10:49,567 --> 00:10:54,095
Glory waits for me
at the end of the road
126
00:10:54,171 --> 00:10:58,198
One more day
127
00:10:58,275 --> 00:11:02,268
One more day
128
00:11:02,346 --> 00:11:08,046
One day older
and nearer to my Lord
129
00:11:08,118 --> 00:11:13,954
One more day
130
00:11:16,861 --> 00:11:21,059
That's mighty pretty, Hunk.
Give us another.
131
00:11:25,202 --> 00:11:27,227
Thanks a lot, neighbors.
132
00:11:27,304 --> 00:11:30,762
Appearin' before you has given me
a big hunk of pleasure.
133
00:11:30,841 --> 00:11:34,470
I hope to be around pickin' and
singin' for you again real soon.
134
00:11:35,846 --> 00:11:37,780
Whereabouts did you learn
to sing like that?
135
00:11:37,848 --> 00:11:41,113
That used to be my trade,
sonny buck.
136
00:11:41,185 --> 00:11:44,382
I was singin' country music
before the words were invented.
137
00:11:44,455 --> 00:11:47,891
I was on the stage with the best of 'em:
Eddy Arnold, Roy Acuff.
138
00:11:47,958 --> 00:11:49,983
Did you make good money?
139
00:11:50,060 --> 00:11:53,461
I made two bills a week.
I was swimmin' in gravy in those days.
140
00:11:54,431 --> 00:11:55,864
Get on to the sad part.
141
00:11:57,301 --> 00:12:00,168
A woman and a bank did it.
142
00:12:00,237 --> 00:12:03,638
She got used to bonded bourbon,
I robbed a bank.
143
00:12:03,707 --> 00:12:05,834
I thought you were
makin' 200 a week?
144
00:12:07,711 --> 00:12:09,303
Booking's got a little thin.
145
00:12:11,515 --> 00:12:15,042
- You made all that money just singin'?
- Why not?
146
00:12:18,355 --> 00:12:20,619
Mind if I horse around with it?
147
00:12:22,026 --> 00:12:24,290
Don't break any strings.
148
00:12:25,796 --> 00:12:28,264
I can sing better than you.
149
00:12:28,332 --> 00:12:30,493
Naturally.
150
00:12:30,567 --> 00:12:33,764
I used to have an uncle
that had one of these things.
151
00:12:33,837 --> 00:12:36,567
I fooled around with it some.
152
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:37,675
Here's one of his songs.
153
00:12:37,675 --> 00:12:39,006
Here's one of his songs.
154
00:12:39,076 --> 00:12:43,775
You're so young
155
00:12:43,847 --> 00:12:47,510
And beautiful
156
00:12:48,585 --> 00:12:54,649
And I love you so
157
00:12:56,160 --> 00:13:00,460
Your lips so red
158
00:13:00,531 --> 00:13:04,490
Your eyes that shine
159
00:13:05,769 --> 00:13:12,504
Shame the stars that glow
160
00:13:12,576 --> 00:13:15,306
So feel
161
00:13:15,379 --> 00:13:21,841
These lonely arms of mine
162
00:13:21,919 --> 00:13:28,518
And kiss me tenderly
163
00:13:31,195 --> 00:13:34,392
Then you'll be
164
00:13:34,465 --> 00:13:39,164
Forever young
165
00:13:39,236 --> 00:13:45,368
And beautiful to me
166
00:13:53,217 --> 00:13:55,151
Like my singin'?
167
00:13:56,754 --> 00:13:58,949
You don't know one thing
about the guitar.
168
00:13:59,023 --> 00:14:00,456
The boarders liked it.
169
00:14:00,524 --> 00:14:03,493
They're what you might call
a captive audience.
170
00:14:03,560 --> 00:14:05,721
Here, let me show you
a few chords.
171
00:14:15,139 --> 00:14:17,630
That's a C-major chord.
That's a big one.
172
00:14:21,045 --> 00:14:23,639
Now try the G.
173
00:14:31,355 --> 00:14:35,689
You will never make a guitar player.
You got no rhythm in your bones.
174
00:14:35,759 --> 00:14:39,217
Well, I never heard of anybody
payin' money to hear a guitar player.
175
00:14:39,296 --> 00:14:41,457
Don't pay any attention to me.
176
00:14:41,532 --> 00:14:44,365
I was only in the business
for ten years, that's all.
177
00:14:44,435 --> 00:14:47,529
Yeah. I read you,
loud and clear.
178
00:14:47,604 --> 00:14:49,196
Try it again.
179
00:15:00,617 --> 00:15:02,710
Vince, take a water break.
180
00:15:05,756 --> 00:15:08,350
Hey, screw,
I'm gonna get some water.
181
00:15:13,464 --> 00:15:15,227
We're gonna have
a prisoners' show.
182
00:15:15,299 --> 00:15:17,961
A committee from the state legislature
is comin' to investigate.
183
00:15:18,035 --> 00:15:20,936
The warden wants to throw up
a smoke screen.
184
00:15:21,004 --> 00:15:22,938
He's all heart, that warden.
185
00:15:23,006 --> 00:15:25,941
- Who do you think's producin' the show?
- You.
186
00:15:26,009 --> 00:15:27,499
Who told you?
187
00:15:28,345 --> 00:15:31,143
I got a spot for you in the show.
I'll teach you a new tune.
188
00:15:31,215 --> 00:15:34,742
I don't know. What's the percentage
in singin' for a bunch of cons?
189
00:15:34,818 --> 00:15:38,379
Experience, you lunkhead.
That's the percentage.
190
00:15:38,455 --> 00:15:41,390
- I'll consider it.
- Fine. You do that.
191
00:15:41,458 --> 00:15:45,417
While you're about it, consider the fact
this show is goin' on national TV.
192
00:15:45,496 --> 00:15:49,057
- You're kiddin'.
- No. It's called "Breadth of a Nation."
193
00:15:49,133 --> 00:15:51,067
I guess they figure we got color.
194
00:15:51,135 --> 00:15:53,433
I considered. I'm on.
195
00:15:53,504 --> 00:15:55,836
What do you think's prettier?
Red or blue?
196
00:15:55,906 --> 00:15:58,898
- Red or blue what?
- Color for a convertible.
197
00:15:58,976 --> 00:16:00,409
Geez!
198
00:16:01,478 --> 00:16:04,208
You guests of the state
are gonna be mighty sorry...
199
00:16:04,281 --> 00:16:06,715
this next boy's a short-termer...
200
00:16:06,783 --> 00:16:09,119
'cause he sure sings pretty.
201
00:16:09,386 --> 00:16:11,854
Let's hear it for Vince Everett!
202
00:16:22,266 --> 00:16:25,702
There's no joy in my heart
203
00:16:25,769 --> 00:16:29,227
Only sorrow
204
00:16:29,306 --> 00:16:34,505
And I'm sad as a man can be
205
00:16:35,812 --> 00:16:39,612
I sit alone in the darkness
206
00:16:39,683 --> 00:16:43,016
Of my lonely room
207
00:16:43,086 --> 00:16:48,046
And this room
is a prison to me
208
00:16:49,193 --> 00:16:52,629
I look out my window
209
00:16:52,696 --> 00:16:56,223
And what do I see
210
00:16:56,300 --> 00:16:59,394
I see a bird
211
00:16:59,469 --> 00:17:02,199
Way up in a tree
212
00:17:02,272 --> 00:17:05,503
- I wanna be free
- Oh, yes
213
00:17:05,576 --> 00:17:07,100
- Free
- Oh, yes
214
00:17:07,177 --> 00:17:09,475
Free
215
00:17:09,546 --> 00:17:11,537
I wanna be free
216
00:17:11,615 --> 00:17:14,607
Like the bird in the tree
217
00:17:14,685 --> 00:17:16,175
Wanna be free
218
00:17:16,253 --> 00:17:19,086
Hurry up, fellas.
I gotta count my fan mail.
219
00:17:23,093 --> 00:17:24,685
Vince Everett.
220
00:17:45,549 --> 00:17:47,483
Hey, you birds, come here.
221
00:17:55,158 --> 00:17:57,092
How'd you like to make
five cartons apiece?
222
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,890
Five? Who do you
want us to murder?
223
00:17:59,963 --> 00:18:04,366
It's the easiest money you'll ever make.
Just keep your mouth shut.
224
00:18:04,434 --> 00:18:06,459
I mean, about the mail.
225
00:18:06,536 --> 00:18:09,801
I made a mistake. I gave the kid
the best spot in the show.
226
00:18:09,873 --> 00:18:13,240
If word gets out all this mail's for
Vince Everett, it makes me look bad.
227
00:18:13,310 --> 00:18:17,007
Follow? I mean me,
the professional singer.
228
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,878
I, uh... I see.
229
00:18:19,950 --> 00:18:23,511
If within a week the word's not around,
you get the cigarettes.
230
00:18:23,587 --> 00:18:26,954
Yeah, but it's Everett's mail.
Who's gonna keep him quiet?
231
00:18:28,191 --> 00:18:31,820
If I know the warden,
Everett will never get it.
232
00:18:34,331 --> 00:18:37,664
We'd be a natural together.
Both ex-cons.
233
00:18:37,734 --> 00:18:40,464
The publicity
would be sensational.
234
00:18:40,537 --> 00:18:41,970
Look.
235
00:18:42,873 --> 00:18:44,602
You get out in six months.
236
00:18:44,675 --> 00:18:46,836
I follow you 12 months later.
237
00:18:46,910 --> 00:18:50,744
- What do you say, boy?
- You mean we sing together?
238
00:18:50,814 --> 00:18:52,543
Together, alone,
it makes no difference.
239
00:18:52,616 --> 00:18:55,380
We hire a couple of other acts,
we got our own show.
240
00:18:55,452 --> 00:18:57,545
We play the circuit
and we roll.
241
00:18:57,621 --> 00:18:59,555
I don't know anything
about gettin' bookings...
242
00:18:59,623 --> 00:19:02,888
Let me worry about
the business end.
243
00:19:02,959 --> 00:19:04,392
Here.
244
00:19:06,530 --> 00:19:10,694
I've made a contract for us.
We split everything down the middle.
245
00:19:11,768 --> 00:19:13,702
Sit down here a minute.
246
00:19:14,638 --> 00:19:16,731
Come on, boy, sit down here.
247
00:19:18,475 --> 00:19:20,409
Sign right there.
248
00:19:24,548 --> 00:19:27,711
How come you're willing to
give me 50% of your earnings?
249
00:19:27,784 --> 00:19:32,016
I mean, like you said, you're the one
that's got the experience and the name.
250
00:19:32,089 --> 00:19:35,616
One simple reason:
I got faith in your possibilities.
251
00:19:35,692 --> 00:19:37,922
You're never gonna
command the dough I can...
252
00:19:37,994 --> 00:19:40,258
but with training,
you'll do all right.
253
00:19:40,330 --> 00:19:44,164
Besides, I need a young man
to appeal to the kids.
254
00:19:44,234 --> 00:19:46,327
I'm levelin' with you, boy.
255
00:19:51,541 --> 00:19:53,304
Alone, son...
256
00:19:53,377 --> 00:19:56,141
you'd be like a lamb
in a pack of wolves.
257
00:19:57,647 --> 00:19:59,137
Go ahead.
258
00:20:12,262 --> 00:20:15,322
I wouldn't feed this garbage
to a razorback hog.
259
00:20:15,399 --> 00:20:18,391
I thought that investigatin' committee
was gonna fix things up here.
260
00:20:18,468 --> 00:20:21,164
Investigatin' committee.
What do those jerks see?
261
00:20:21,238 --> 00:20:23,399
What the warden
wants 'em to see!
262
00:20:23,473 --> 00:20:24,735
Slop.
263
00:20:24,808 --> 00:20:25,797
Slop!
264
00:20:39,389 --> 00:20:41,983
Come on!
Let's get back to the cell!
265
00:20:45,695 --> 00:20:47,629
Come on. Back to your cell!
266
00:21:06,316 --> 00:21:07,749
All right.
267
00:21:09,586 --> 00:21:10,848
One.
268
00:21:11,922 --> 00:21:13,184
Two.
269
00:21:14,157 --> 00:21:15,590
Three.
270
00:21:16,460 --> 00:21:17,722
Four.
271
00:21:18,829 --> 00:21:19,955
Five.
272
00:21:45,489 --> 00:21:47,923
I didn't have money enough
to buy the grease.
273
00:21:47,991 --> 00:21:52,121
- The price was 300. I didn't have it.
- I wish you did.
274
00:21:52,195 --> 00:21:56,131
It's a lesson to remember.
Without money, you may as well be dead.
275
00:21:59,769 --> 00:22:02,203
That's all the sympathy I'll give you.
Pity's a commodity in here.
276
00:22:02,272 --> 00:22:04,968
You buy it and sell it
just like anything else.
277
00:22:05,041 --> 00:22:07,771
What are you, man?
Some kind of an animal?
278
00:22:08,845 --> 00:22:10,813
That's right, buddy.
279
00:22:10,881 --> 00:22:14,180
I'm an animal in a jungle,
and I got a motto:
280
00:22:14,251 --> 00:22:18,244
"Do unto others as they would
do unto you, only do it first."
281
00:22:23,360 --> 00:22:24,952
That's right.
282
00:22:27,063 --> 00:22:28,826
Do it first.
283
00:22:31,468 --> 00:22:33,402
And it's just as bad
on the outside.
284
00:22:33,470 --> 00:22:34,903
Worse.
285
00:22:35,772 --> 00:22:37,296
Remember that.
286
00:22:38,375 --> 00:22:40,468
I don't aim to forget it.
287
00:23:11,708 --> 00:23:13,642
Everett, you ready?
288
00:23:16,079 --> 00:23:18,843
Drop in on us when you're
in this part of the country.
289
00:23:18,915 --> 00:23:22,612
- Glad to put you up for the night.
- Just go away, screw!
290
00:23:22,686 --> 00:23:24,950
I wanna say good-bye
to my friend.
291
00:23:25,989 --> 00:23:27,422
See you in about ten months.
292
00:23:27,490 --> 00:23:29,890
That's right, boy.
Together we'll knock 'em over.
293
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,053
The name of the joint
is the Florita.
294
00:23:32,128 --> 00:23:35,791
I wrote a letter to Sam Brewster,
the owner, an old buddy of mine.
295
00:23:35,865 --> 00:23:39,096
- I'm positive he'll give you a job.
- Okay. See you.
296
00:23:39,169 --> 00:23:40,636
Take it easy.
297
00:23:46,977 --> 00:23:49,104
Here's what the state
owes you: $54.
298
00:23:49,179 --> 00:23:50,874
Do I owe income taxes?
299
00:23:50,947 --> 00:23:54,178
Don't give me any sass, bub,
and get outta here.
300
00:23:54,250 --> 00:23:56,309
I'll try not to break down.
301
00:23:57,487 --> 00:23:59,421
Oh, wait a minute.
302
00:24:03,693 --> 00:24:06,218
- Here's something belongs to you.
- What's this?
303
00:24:06,296 --> 00:24:08,787
Letters you got
after that television show.
304
00:24:08,865 --> 00:24:10,799
You're a real star, Everett.
305
00:24:10,867 --> 00:24:13,961
- How come I didn't see these before?
- 'Cause I didn't want you to.
306
00:24:14,037 --> 00:24:16,528
That's against the law,
keepin' mail from an inmate.
307
00:24:16,606 --> 00:24:20,508
Have me arrested.
Now get out, and don't come back.
308
00:24:21,811 --> 00:24:24,245
You've been just like
a father to me, Warden.
309
00:24:26,182 --> 00:24:27,615
Sir!
310
00:24:38,762 --> 00:24:41,253
I'll send a woman up
to make the bed directly.
311
00:24:46,836 --> 00:24:48,394
What do you want?
312
00:24:48,471 --> 00:24:51,406
It's custom to tip a man
when he brings you to your room.
313
00:24:51,474 --> 00:24:54,341
Well, I'm startin'
a new custom: No tip.
314
00:24:55,278 --> 00:24:57,212
No law against tryin'.
315
00:25:20,537 --> 00:25:23,768
"Dear Vince, I saw you on television
today singing from the jail...
316
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:25,933
"and I thought you looked real cool.
317
00:25:26,009 --> 00:25:30,139
"My name is Marijane Hamilton, and
I'm 15 with blue eyes and brown hair.
318
00:25:30,213 --> 00:25:33,046
"My measurements are 33-25-36.
319
00:25:33,116 --> 00:25:36,051
"Do you think I should reduce?
Ha-ha.
320
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,577
"If you come to Riverport, how about
giving me a blast on the phone?
321
00:25:39,656 --> 00:25:42,784
"My number is Lockwood 4357."
322
00:25:51,701 --> 00:25:53,328
Where's the nearest pawnshop?
323
00:25:53,403 --> 00:25:56,304
Down the street to the right,
a couple of blocks.
324
00:25:56,372 --> 00:25:59,705
What you gonna do?
Buy yourself a diamond ring?
325
00:25:59,776 --> 00:26:03,644
No. I'm gonna buy a guitar
and sing love songs to you.
326
00:26:15,258 --> 00:26:16,953
- Hi, Jerry.
- Hi, Peggy.
327
00:26:17,026 --> 00:26:18,516
- Shorty.
- Hi, Peggy.
328
00:26:59,369 --> 00:27:03,499
- How's your boy doin'?
- Large. He's on top.
329
00:27:03,573 --> 00:27:06,440
"Crying to the Stars"
got 84 plays.
330
00:27:06,509 --> 00:27:09,103
Yeah? I'm sick of it.
331
00:27:09,179 --> 00:27:11,613
Now watch your tongue, Shorty.
332
00:27:18,888 --> 00:27:20,822
Tell me what you see.
333
00:27:20,890 --> 00:27:24,155
About 5'4", weight 115,
pretty well stacked.
334
00:27:24,227 --> 00:27:27,094
- I'm glad you find me pleasing.
- I don't find you nothin'.
335
00:27:27,163 --> 00:27:30,030
- Then why are you staring?
- I'm interested in the jukebox.
336
00:27:30,099 --> 00:27:32,590
Well, I'm sorry.
I don't know about mechanics.
337
00:27:32,669 --> 00:27:34,637
I don't either.
338
00:27:34,704 --> 00:27:36,399
I'm a singer.
339
00:27:37,707 --> 00:27:39,140
Indeed.
340
00:27:40,643 --> 00:27:44,374
I saw you writin' down
some figures in your little book...
341
00:27:44,447 --> 00:27:48,349
and I wondered what you were doing,
so don't get fancy ideas about yourself.
342
00:27:50,386 --> 00:27:51,876
Oh, I see.
343
00:27:53,256 --> 00:27:56,589
- Well, I'm afraid I misunderstood.
- I'm afraid you did.
344
00:27:58,728 --> 00:28:01,595
If you buy me a fresh drink,
I'll tell you about the figures.
345
00:28:01,664 --> 00:28:03,723
Buy your own drink.
346
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,928
Is yours the approved manner
with ladies in the backwoods?
347
00:28:07,003 --> 00:28:09,995
- Just tell me about the figures.
- All right.
348
00:28:10,073 --> 00:28:12,234
I'm an exploitation man
in the record business.
349
00:28:12,308 --> 00:28:14,572
I work for Mickey Alba.
You've heard of him?
350
00:28:14,644 --> 00:28:16,874
Word sometimes gets
to the backwoods, yeah.
351
00:28:16,946 --> 00:28:21,007
Well, I plug his records with
disc jockeys, jukeboxes, stores.
352
00:28:21,084 --> 00:28:23,848
- Oh, hello, Sam.
- Hello, kid.
353
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,047
This is Sam Brewster,
the cheerful owner.
354
00:28:26,122 --> 00:28:28,317
Vince Everett.
Did you get Hunk Houghton's letter?
355
00:28:28,391 --> 00:28:31,724
- So you want a job, huh?
- When do I go to work?
356
00:28:31,794 --> 00:28:35,093
- Whenever you want.
- Tonight's good as any.
357
00:28:35,164 --> 00:28:37,632
It's up to you.
Bring me a seltzer, will you?
358
00:28:40,169 --> 00:28:42,399
Can those guys play
with me when I sing?
359
00:28:42,472 --> 00:28:44,736
What do you mean, "sing"?
360
00:28:44,807 --> 00:28:47,571
Sing! You said
I could start tonight.
361
00:28:47,644 --> 00:28:49,669
As bar boy.
362
00:28:49,746 --> 00:28:53,580
- Make setups, bring ice.
- Hunk said you'd give me a job singing.
363
00:28:53,650 --> 00:28:56,346
What do you think I am,
a mental case?
364
00:28:57,453 --> 00:28:59,148
This place is
no hobby, you know.
365
00:28:59,222 --> 00:29:02,282
All I want is a chance,
Mr. Brewster.
366
00:29:02,358 --> 00:29:04,986
Look, kid,
I'll save you some grief.
367
00:29:05,695 --> 00:29:09,461
So Hunk taught you
a couple of songs? Swell.
368
00:29:09,532 --> 00:29:12,262
Be the life of the
next party you go to...
369
00:29:12,335 --> 00:29:15,168
but we don't have
opportunity night here.
370
00:29:17,907 --> 00:29:20,000
Do you want the job
or don't you?
371
00:29:20,076 --> 00:29:21,907
Bar boy.
372
00:29:21,978 --> 00:29:24,242
I'll see you around, honey.
373
00:29:27,617 --> 00:29:30,882
Hunk Houghton.
That name sounds familiar.
374
00:29:30,954 --> 00:29:34,219
He's an old country music singer.
I met him in the penitentiary.
375
00:29:35,758 --> 00:29:37,988
Make setups and bring ice.
376
00:29:47,971 --> 00:29:50,565
Ladies and gentlemen...
377
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:55,202
I'm not a part of this show, so don't
encourage me or pay me any mind at all.
378
00:29:55,278 --> 00:29:58,441
But the man that owns this place thinks
I can't sing, so I gotta prove it.
379
00:29:58,514 --> 00:30:00,846
So you just go ahead
with whatever you're doin'.
380
00:30:00,917 --> 00:30:04,717
It won't take long.
Do a chorus of "Young and Beautiful."
381
00:30:07,056 --> 00:30:10,719
You're so young
382
00:30:10,793 --> 00:30:15,492
And beautiful
383
00:30:15,565 --> 00:30:20,195
And I love you so
384
00:30:21,504 --> 00:30:24,166
Your lips are red
385
00:30:25,174 --> 00:30:27,142
Your eyes that shine
386
00:30:29,245 --> 00:30:33,204
Shame the stars that glow
387
00:30:35,785 --> 00:30:37,912
Don't let me
interrupt you, mister.
388
00:30:37,987 --> 00:30:39,682
I won't.
389
00:30:43,726 --> 00:30:50,996
So fill these lonely arms of mine
390
00:30:51,067 --> 00:30:56,266
And kiss me tenderly
391
00:30:58,174 --> 00:31:04,511
Then you'll be forever young
392
00:31:04,580 --> 00:31:09,745
And beautiful to me
393
00:31:27,837 --> 00:31:30,465
Hey! You forgot something!
394
00:31:30,540 --> 00:31:33,065
- What?
- Me.
395
00:31:33,142 --> 00:31:35,406
That was quite
a temper tantrum back there.
396
00:31:35,478 --> 00:31:37,912
That creep had it comin'.
397
00:31:37,980 --> 00:31:42,212
Look. Why don't you get me
off the streets, huh?
398
00:31:42,285 --> 00:31:43,946
I'm bushed.
399
00:31:45,054 --> 00:31:47,454
She'll do 80 on a straightaway.
400
00:31:50,793 --> 00:31:52,385
Come on, huh?
401
00:31:58,935 --> 00:32:02,268
Do you always bust guitars
on talking customers?
402
00:32:02,338 --> 00:32:05,136
- I wasn't that bad.
- Oh?
403
00:32:07,076 --> 00:32:08,566
Do you think so?
404
00:32:09,412 --> 00:32:12,142
Well, I didn't think
you were very good, Vince.
405
00:32:12,215 --> 00:32:14,376
After listening to
Mickey Alba all day...
406
00:32:14,450 --> 00:32:15,940
All right.
407
00:32:17,286 --> 00:32:19,117
You tell me.
408
00:32:19,188 --> 00:32:21,520
Why didn't they listen to you?
409
00:32:21,591 --> 00:32:24,924
I don't know.
I'm no worse than a lot of 'em.
410
00:32:25,928 --> 00:32:27,555
And no better.
411
00:32:28,564 --> 00:32:32,796
Okay, you're used to the top talent.
Why waste your time working me over?
412
00:32:33,903 --> 00:32:35,837
I like the way
you swing a guitar.
413
00:32:40,543 --> 00:32:43,842
I guess I did get a lot of
wrist action into it, didn't I?
414
00:32:45,047 --> 00:32:47,311
Well, that's all she wrote.
415
00:32:47,383 --> 00:32:50,216
My musical career started
and ended with one song.
416
00:32:51,487 --> 00:32:53,512
I don't know why...
417
00:32:53,589 --> 00:32:56,251
not until you've given
yourself every chance.
418
00:32:56,325 --> 00:32:59,453
But if they won't listen to me,
I can't hold a gun on 'em.
419
00:32:59,529 --> 00:33:01,827
Did you ever listen to yourself?
420
00:33:01,898 --> 00:33:04,423
How can I listen to myself
when I'm singing?
421
00:33:04,500 --> 00:33:06,798
Make a tape recording.
422
00:33:06,869 --> 00:33:10,134
Maybe when you hear yourself,
you can discover what's wrong.
423
00:33:12,575 --> 00:33:14,270
How much does it cost?
424
00:33:16,012 --> 00:33:18,537
About $20 for the
recording studio, I think.
425
00:33:20,783 --> 00:33:22,717
I haven't got a guitar.
426
00:33:22,785 --> 00:33:25,117
I'll borrow one for you.
427
00:33:25,188 --> 00:33:27,122
Can't hurt anything.
428
00:33:38,067 --> 00:33:42,026
- I'm sorry I'm late, Vince.
- Just don't pay attention to my nerves.
429
00:33:42,104 --> 00:33:45,437
- I brought you some background.
- Who's gonna pay 'em?
430
00:33:45,508 --> 00:33:48,033
It's on the house.
Have you picked a tune?
431
00:33:48,110 --> 00:33:50,169
Yeah. Sit down, fellas.
432
00:33:53,149 --> 00:33:55,174
Let's see if you know this one.
433
00:33:56,385 --> 00:33:59,946
Don't leave me now
434
00:34:02,291 --> 00:34:05,852
Now that I need you
435
00:34:10,499 --> 00:34:12,797
Okay, I'm ready
as I'll ever be.
436
00:34:14,203 --> 00:34:15,636
Stand by, please.
437
00:34:15,705 --> 00:34:18,173
Everett demonstration
number one, take one.
438
00:34:18,241 --> 00:34:20,232
One, two, three.
439
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:34,412
Don't leave me now
440
00:34:36,559 --> 00:34:41,553
Now that I need you
441
00:34:41,631 --> 00:34:47,433
How blue and lonely I'd be
442
00:34:47,503 --> 00:34:51,803
If you should say we're through
443
00:34:53,409 --> 00:34:57,778
Don't break my heart
444
00:34:59,115 --> 00:35:03,176
This heart that loves you
445
00:35:03,252 --> 00:35:04,810
Man, it's awful.
446
00:35:06,555 --> 00:35:08,489
Do I sound like that?
447
00:35:10,092 --> 00:35:13,721
If you should leave me now
448
00:35:15,965 --> 00:35:21,597
What good is dreamin'
449
00:35:21,671 --> 00:35:24,606
I guess I owe that guy
at the Florita a couple of drinks.
450
00:35:24,674 --> 00:35:26,107
It's a nice tune, though.
451
00:35:26,175 --> 00:35:28,939
There's nothing wrong with the tune.
It's the way I'm doing it.
452
00:35:29,011 --> 00:35:30,478
How do you mean?
453
00:35:31,547 --> 00:35:34,175
I sound like
a million other singers.
454
00:35:34,250 --> 00:35:37,378
- Then sing it differently.
- Like how?
455
00:35:37,453 --> 00:35:40,718
Like how you feel it.
Put your own emotions into the song.
456
00:35:40,790 --> 00:35:42,519
Make it fit you.
457
00:35:43,659 --> 00:35:45,422
Make it fit you.
458
00:35:46,495 --> 00:35:48,656
Well, the first thing
is that guitar.
459
00:35:48,731 --> 00:35:51,996
It's tough tryin'
to find the chords.
460
00:35:52,068 --> 00:35:54,969
- I just won't use it.
- Nobody cares.
461
00:35:55,037 --> 00:35:57,528
- Okay, fellas, let's do it again.
- Good.
462
00:36:00,509 --> 00:36:03,774
Burn me up this time. Let's see
if we can get a little fire in it.
463
00:36:06,248 --> 00:36:09,376
- Try it again, sir.
- All right. Stand by.
464
00:36:09,452 --> 00:36:11,721
Everett demonstration
number two, take one.
465
00:36:11,721 --> 00:36:12,119
Everett demonstration
number two, take one.
466
00:36:24,667 --> 00:36:27,693
Don't leave me now
467
00:36:27,770 --> 00:36:30,671
Don't leave me now
468
00:36:30,740 --> 00:36:35,871
- Now that I need you
- Oooh
469
00:36:35,945 --> 00:36:41,144
How blue and lonely I'd be
470
00:36:42,418 --> 00:36:46,377
If you should say we're through
471
00:36:46,455 --> 00:36:48,389
Don't say we're through
472
00:36:48,457 --> 00:36:51,483
Don't break my heart
473
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:54,529
Don't break my heart
474
00:36:54,597 --> 00:37:00,229
This heart that loves you
475
00:37:00,302 --> 00:37:06,207
There'd just be nothin' for me
476
00:37:06,275 --> 00:37:10,211
If you should leave me now
477
00:37:10,279 --> 00:37:12,372
Don't leave me now
478
00:37:12,448 --> 00:37:18,250
What good is dreamin'
479
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:22,051
If I must dream all alone
480
00:37:22,124 --> 00:37:24,092
By myself
481
00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:29,689
Without you, darlin'
482
00:37:31,434 --> 00:37:33,527
- What do you think?
- I think it's wonderful.
483
00:37:33,602 --> 00:37:35,536
- Good enough for a record?
- It sure is.
484
00:37:35,604 --> 00:37:37,970
- Then let's go ahead.
- With a record?
485
00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,338
Why not?
How do you go about it?
486
00:37:40,409 --> 00:37:42,206
It isn't that easy, Vince.
487
00:37:42,278 --> 00:37:44,974
You have to go to a record company
and sell 'em on the idea.
488
00:37:45,047 --> 00:37:48,847
Let's do it. You know the business,
and I want to cash in on some loot.
489
00:37:50,119 --> 00:37:52,053
Well, I don't know.
490
00:37:53,956 --> 00:37:55,890
We might try Geneva Records.
491
00:37:55,958 --> 00:37:58,392
What can they do?
Send me back to the pen?
492
00:38:14,176 --> 00:38:17,942
- Thanks, Peg, for lettin' me hear it.
- I think he's got a distinctive style.
493
00:38:18,013 --> 00:38:20,811
Everybody's got
a distinctive style these days.
494
00:38:20,883 --> 00:38:24,375
I'd like to hear someone
sing a song straight for a change.
495
00:38:24,453 --> 00:38:27,081
But you know they're going
for the new sounds, Jack.
496
00:38:27,156 --> 00:38:31,286
I wish I could help you with it,
but you know our program this year.
497
00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:32,554
No experiments.
498
00:38:32,628 --> 00:38:35,688
We're sticking with
the established record sellers.
499
00:38:36,999 --> 00:38:41,698
Well, I guess we'll have
to let MGM Records have it.
500
00:38:41,770 --> 00:38:44,534
- I wish you luck.
- Thanks anyway, Jack.
501
00:38:44,607 --> 00:38:46,199
Let's get outta here.
502
00:38:47,276 --> 00:38:48,709
I'll tell you what.
503
00:38:49,812 --> 00:38:53,748
Leave the tape with me. I'll play it
over the phone to D.L. in New York.
504
00:38:54,884 --> 00:38:56,579
That's the best I can do.
505
00:38:56,652 --> 00:38:59,052
That'd be wonderful, Jack.
Thank you.
506
00:38:59,121 --> 00:39:01,521
I don't promise you anything.
507
00:39:01,590 --> 00:39:04,320
- It's nice to meet you, sonny.
- Likewise.
508
00:39:07,596 --> 00:39:09,587
Pretty sharp cuff links.
509
00:39:09,665 --> 00:39:11,724
I'm gonna have me
some like that someday.
510
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:15,634
Mickey Alba made me a present of these
when we gave him his eighth gold record.
511
00:39:15,704 --> 00:39:18,502
Maybe someday you'll make me
the same kind of present.
512
00:39:19,575 --> 00:39:21,202
That'd be nice.
513
00:39:21,277 --> 00:39:23,404
- Good-bye, Jack.
- Bye, Peg.
514
00:39:33,255 --> 00:39:35,883
- Hello?
- Hello, Vince.
515
00:39:35,958 --> 00:39:38,825
- I'm afraid I have bad news.
- You saw Lease, huh?
516
00:39:39,862 --> 00:39:42,262
He said the man in New York
didn't like the tape.
517
00:39:42,331 --> 00:39:44,663
What do we do now?
518
00:39:44,733 --> 00:39:47,668
- Keep on trying other labels, I guess.
- Okay, you do that.
519
00:39:48,637 --> 00:39:51,435
I'll meet you at that
same restaurant about 7:00.
520
00:39:51,507 --> 00:39:53,907
Okay. Good-bye.
521
00:40:01,083 --> 00:40:02,345
Hi.
522
00:40:04,019 --> 00:40:05,714
You've kept me waiting
20 minutes.
523
00:40:05,788 --> 00:40:08,655
- I've been sleepin'. You eat yet?
- Certainly not.
524
00:40:09,725 --> 00:40:12,421
Don't you know the meaning
of the word "courtesy"?
525
00:40:12,494 --> 00:40:15,657
We don't use it much
in the backwoods. Let's eat.
526
00:40:16,732 --> 00:40:19,223
You might at least ask me
what happened this afternoon.
527
00:40:19,301 --> 00:40:22,759
- What happened this afternoon?
- I sold your record, that's all.
528
00:40:22,838 --> 00:40:25,272
Swell. I could tear
into a good steak.
529
00:40:25,341 --> 00:40:28,742
Would it hurt you just to say
that you're happy about it?
530
00:40:28,811 --> 00:40:30,369
It wouldn't be easy.
531
00:40:30,446 --> 00:40:33,040
When the money starts rolling in,
then I'll say I'm happy.
532
00:40:39,421 --> 00:40:41,582
Who'd you make the deal with?
533
00:40:41,657 --> 00:40:44,148
- Deltona.
- Never heard of 'em.
534
00:40:45,894 --> 00:40:48,556
It's fairly new.
535
00:40:48,631 --> 00:40:52,567
They're crazy about it, Vince.
They say they're gonna push it hard.
536
00:40:52,635 --> 00:40:53,897
Great.
537
00:40:55,037 --> 00:40:57,164
Let's celebrate, huh, Vince?
538
00:40:57,239 --> 00:40:59,673
We'll have a bottle of wine
and a nice meal...
539
00:40:59,742 --> 00:41:03,303
and then after dinner we'll drive out
and see my father and mother.
540
00:41:03,379 --> 00:41:07,008
- I didn't know you had parents.
- They didn't win me on a quiz show.
541
00:41:08,150 --> 00:41:11,551
You like burgundy?
Goes great with steak.
542
00:41:13,422 --> 00:41:16,414
I like anything that goes
with steak. I'm broke.
543
00:41:18,127 --> 00:41:20,561
If it's all right with you,
I'll pay for the meal.
544
00:41:21,463 --> 00:41:23,454
You will if we eat.
545
00:41:23,532 --> 00:41:25,022
Hey, waitress.
546
00:41:38,747 --> 00:41:42,205
It's a real crazy pad.
What does your old man do for a livin'?
547
00:41:43,419 --> 00:41:46,217
He's a professor
at Bertrand College.
548
00:41:54,396 --> 00:41:56,455
- Hello, darling.
- Hello, daddy.
549
00:41:56,532 --> 00:42:00,229
- I'd like you to meet Vince Everett.
- Welcome, young man.
550
00:42:00,302 --> 00:42:03,032
Mother, this is Mr. Everett,
the singer Peggy's been working with.
551
00:42:03,105 --> 00:42:04,800
- How do you do?
- Can I fix you a drink?
552
00:42:04,873 --> 00:42:07,433
- No, thank you.
- Scotch? Bourbon?
553
00:42:07,509 --> 00:42:09,875
- You got any beer?
- Coming up.
554
00:42:09,945 --> 00:42:13,073
We're very pleased to see you.
Peggy's told us about you.
555
00:42:13,148 --> 00:42:15,616
She hasn't told me
anything about you.
556
00:42:15,684 --> 00:42:18,118
I hear you sold
your first record today.
557
00:42:19,855 --> 00:42:22,119
You seem to hear
everything about me, huh?
558
00:42:23,325 --> 00:42:25,384
How long have you been
in the music business?
559
00:42:25,461 --> 00:42:27,827
- About a week.
- I see.
560
00:42:27,896 --> 00:42:30,922
There you are, sir.
And what did you do before that?
561
00:42:32,401 --> 00:42:34,335
- Peggy didn't tell you?
- No.
562
00:42:34,403 --> 00:42:37,861
- Mr. Everett was in the penitentiary.
- Is that so?
563
00:42:37,940 --> 00:42:41,808
- What was the rap?
- One to ten. I did 14 months.
564
00:42:41,877 --> 00:42:44,869
August, why don't you put on
that new record by Stubby Rightmire?
565
00:42:44,947 --> 00:42:47,643
I'm sure Mr. Everett's
interested in jazz music.
566
00:42:47,716 --> 00:42:49,843
- It's his profession.
- Righto.
567
00:42:49,918 --> 00:42:53,115
Will you excuse me?
I have to fix the sandwiches.
568
00:42:54,256 --> 00:42:56,554
That bomb kind of
laid an egg, didn't it?
569
00:42:56,625 --> 00:43:00,061
- What bomb?
- About the penitentiary.
570
00:43:00,129 --> 00:43:03,155
I'm afraid the shock value
isn't worth very much.
571
00:43:12,875 --> 00:43:16,538
I think Stubby's gone overboard
with those altered chords, don't you?
572
00:43:16,612 --> 00:43:20,981
I think Brubeck and Desmond have gone
as far with dissonance as I care to go.
573
00:43:21,049 --> 00:43:24,416
Oh, nonsense. Have you heard
Lenny Tristano's latest recording?
574
00:43:24,486 --> 00:43:27,080
He reached outer space.
575
00:43:27,156 --> 00:43:30,751
Someday they'll make the cycle
and get back to pure old Dixieland.
576
00:43:30,826 --> 00:43:35,320
I say atonality is just
a passing phase in jazz music.
577
00:43:35,397 --> 00:43:37,228
What do you think,
Mr. Everett?
578
00:43:38,700 --> 00:43:40,691
I don't know what the hell
you're talkin' about.
579
00:43:55,918 --> 00:43:58,682
You finally got your sensation.
I hope you're satisfied.
580
00:43:58,754 --> 00:44:00,483
Get off my back.
581
00:44:00,556 --> 00:44:03,855
You insulted my father, mother and me,
and it's just unforgivable!
582
00:44:03,926 --> 00:44:06,486
I have a little beer,
first thing you know...
583
00:44:06,562 --> 00:44:08,996
some old broad's
askin' me a stupid question.
584
00:44:09,064 --> 00:44:11,191
They were trying to bring you
into the conversation.
585
00:44:11,266 --> 00:44:13,860
They can shove their conversation.
I'm not sure they were talkin' English.
586
00:44:16,071 --> 00:44:18,733
- I'll drive you to your hotel.
- I'll walk.
587
00:44:19,708 --> 00:44:22,142
I think I'm gonna just hate you.
588
00:44:26,348 --> 00:44:28,282
You ain't gonna hate me.
589
00:44:30,052 --> 00:44:31,986
I ain't gonna let you hate me.
590
00:44:36,325 --> 00:44:39,317
How dare you think such
cheap tactics would work with me.
591
00:44:49,037 --> 00:44:51,631
That ain't tactics, honey.
592
00:44:51,707 --> 00:44:53,902
That's just the beast in me.
593
00:45:13,929 --> 00:45:16,762
Before we go in,
there's something I'd better say.
594
00:45:17,833 --> 00:45:19,528
About the other night...
595
00:45:19,601 --> 00:45:22,399
I guess I did get
out of line a foot or two.
596
00:45:23,772 --> 00:45:25,933
I got a pretty big mouth
sometimes...
597
00:45:26,008 --> 00:45:29,000
so if you'll just tell
your old lady I said I'm...
598
00:45:29,077 --> 00:45:30,669
Sorry?
599
00:45:32,214 --> 00:45:33,977
Yeah. Come on.
600
00:45:39,554 --> 00:45:40,748
May I help you?
601
00:45:40,822 --> 00:45:43,916
Today's the release date for
"Don't Leave Me Now." Do you have it?
602
00:45:43,992 --> 00:45:46,790
We sure do. The kids
are all crazy about it.
603
00:45:46,862 --> 00:45:48,591
It's the greatest.
604
00:45:48,664 --> 00:45:51,758
- I think I'll take a half a dozen.
- Yes, sir.
605
00:45:51,833 --> 00:45:54,825
Did you hear that?
They're crazy about it.
606
00:45:54,903 --> 00:45:57,633
- I'm gonna start off with a red one.
- A red what?
607
00:45:57,706 --> 00:45:59,640
Convertible.
608
00:45:59,708 --> 00:46:02,802
That'll be six dollars plus tax.
609
00:46:02,878 --> 00:46:04,971
May I see those records, please?
610
00:46:09,251 --> 00:46:11,185
What's the matter, Peg?
611
00:46:13,355 --> 00:46:16,415
"'Don't Leave Me Now'
by Mickey Alba"?
612
00:46:16,491 --> 00:46:18,254
Geneva Record Company.
613
00:46:19,294 --> 00:46:22,559
- I'm afraid I don't get it.
- I do.
614
00:46:22,631 --> 00:46:25,065
- Which booth can we use?
- Any of them.
615
00:46:31,773 --> 00:46:33,468
Of all the low and filthy...
616
00:46:33,542 --> 00:46:36,102
Peggy, tell me what's goin' on.
617
00:46:36,178 --> 00:46:39,272
Don't leave me now
618
00:46:39,348 --> 00:46:42,340
Don't leave me now
619
00:46:42,417 --> 00:46:47,252
Now that I need you
620
00:46:48,623 --> 00:46:51,285
How blue and lonely
621
00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:53,590
That lousy thief.
622
00:46:53,662 --> 00:46:56,688
He stole my style,
my arrangement, my everything.
623
00:46:56,765 --> 00:46:58,824
Lease copied your tape
and gave it to him.
624
00:46:58,900 --> 00:47:00,834
What about my record?
625
00:47:02,137 --> 00:47:04,435
You can forget it.
626
00:47:04,506 --> 00:47:06,406
It's gone.
627
00:47:07,509 --> 00:47:09,500
- Miss...
- I'll see you later.
628
00:47:09,578 --> 00:47:11,842
- Vince!
- I'll see you later, Peg.
629
00:47:13,248 --> 00:47:15,216
Vince, where are you going?
630
00:47:15,283 --> 00:47:18,844
Sonny, you don't own that song.
It's published. Anyone can record it.
631
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:21,081
You turned it down.
You said you didn't like it.
632
00:47:21,156 --> 00:47:24,387
- We didn't want to record an unknown.
- What about my arrangement?
633
00:47:24,459 --> 00:47:26,984
So see your lawyer.
You can't copyright an arrangement.
634
00:47:27,062 --> 00:47:29,189
- You're a thievin' rat!
- Listen to me, sonny.
635
00:47:29,264 --> 00:47:31,892
Don't "sonny" me, you louse!
636
00:47:31,967 --> 00:47:34,629
Crawl back under your rock,
you snake!
637
00:47:41,076 --> 00:47:42,338
Come in.
638
00:47:56,391 --> 00:47:58,586
- What did you do to him?
- Nothin'.
639
00:47:58,660 --> 00:48:00,753
Just slapped him
a couple of times.
640
00:48:01,530 --> 00:48:03,998
Isn't that dangerous?
641
00:48:04,066 --> 00:48:06,398
I mean, he might have you
arrested or something.
642
00:48:06,468 --> 00:48:08,959
Why are you scared?
It's not you.
643
00:48:10,338 --> 00:48:13,637
I just don't want anything
to happen to you, that's all.
644
00:48:16,378 --> 00:48:18,846
I'm terribly sorry, Vince.
645
00:48:18,914 --> 00:48:22,247
Old Hunk Houghton told me
once back in the pen.
646
00:48:22,317 --> 00:48:25,343
He said, "Watch out for the teeth,
sonny. It's a jungle."
647
00:48:26,421 --> 00:48:29,049
Yeah, he had it taped.
648
00:48:29,124 --> 00:48:32,958
On the inside, they're Cub Scouts
compared to Jack Lease.
649
00:48:33,028 --> 00:48:35,997
If you make something,
they might steal it from you...
650
00:48:36,064 --> 00:48:39,500
but they'd be too honorable to go around
saying they made it themselves.
651
00:48:40,869 --> 00:48:43,667
Yeah, it was
a pretty rotten thing.
652
00:48:46,074 --> 00:48:48,599
Now that the crying's over...
653
00:48:48,677 --> 00:48:50,907
I wanna make another record.
654
00:48:50,979 --> 00:48:53,311
The same thing might
happen all over again.
655
00:48:53,381 --> 00:48:55,008
You got no guts, Peggy.
656
00:48:55,083 --> 00:48:58,018
So if they steal from you,
there's only one thing to do:
657
00:48:58,086 --> 00:49:00,418
- Start your own record company.
- Your own company?
658
00:49:00,489 --> 00:49:02,423
Certainly.
What's the mystery?
659
00:49:02,491 --> 00:49:06,587
We can find out the details
from a lawyer or something.
660
00:49:06,661 --> 00:49:08,652
You don't have to own a factory.
661
00:49:08,730 --> 00:49:10,561
You contract for the pressings.
662
00:49:10,632 --> 00:49:14,261
But you just don't go out and start
your own record company, just like that!
663
00:49:14,336 --> 00:49:16,304
Why not?
It's done every day.
664
00:49:16,371 --> 00:49:18,839
We're just as smart
as those other birds.
665
00:49:20,208 --> 00:49:22,506
Look, I make the decisions now.
666
00:49:22,577 --> 00:49:25,068
I can't louse things up
any worse than you did.
667
00:49:30,385 --> 00:49:34,515
Distribution.
Well, I know a little bit about it.
668
00:49:34,589 --> 00:49:37,888
Sure you do. And exploitation.
That's your racket.
669
00:49:37,959 --> 00:49:40,985
Look, we'll be partners.
We'll split things up 60-40.
670
00:49:41,062 --> 00:49:44,259
- Sixty-forty?
- I'm the artist, don't forget.
671
00:49:44,332 --> 00:49:45,424
Are you with me?
672
00:49:48,770 --> 00:49:51,295
Yeah. Yeah, I guess I am.
673
00:49:52,240 --> 00:49:55,232
Well, I'll quit my job tomorrow.
674
00:49:56,645 --> 00:49:58,613
My own record company.
675
00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:00,705
I can smell the money already.
676
00:50:02,817 --> 00:50:05,911
This really calls for a celebration,
doesn't it, Vince?
677
00:50:05,987 --> 00:50:08,512
Do you know a lawyer?
678
00:50:08,590 --> 00:50:10,023
Do you know how to dance?
679
00:50:10,091 --> 00:50:13,959
We'll need a good one,
a guy with an eye to a buck.
680
00:50:14,029 --> 00:50:16,122
Do you know a lawyer?
681
00:50:16,198 --> 00:50:18,291
Yeah, I know a lawyer.
682
00:50:18,366 --> 00:50:21,995
Mr. Shores.
But he's a cold-blooded old fish.
683
00:50:22,070 --> 00:50:24,402
Good. How's he fixed financially?
684
00:50:24,472 --> 00:50:27,100
They say he's got
the first dollar he ever earned.
685
00:50:27,175 --> 00:50:29,405
Sounds like my man,
interested only in money.
686
00:50:31,246 --> 00:50:34,340
Is that all you're
interested in, Vince?
687
00:50:34,416 --> 00:50:35,849
Well, what else?
688
00:50:36,785 --> 00:50:38,844
Nothing.
689
00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:41,354
Hey, when can we see
this Mr. Shores?
690
00:50:42,357 --> 00:50:44,791
Tonight, if you want to.
691
00:50:44,859 --> 00:50:46,121
Good.
692
00:50:49,898 --> 00:50:54,028
And incorporation papers
will cost you $100.
693
00:50:54,102 --> 00:50:55,592
We'll raise it.
What else?
694
00:50:57,005 --> 00:50:59,701
Registering your trademark, $25.
695
00:51:00,709 --> 00:51:02,643
Are you interested
in show business?
696
00:51:02,711 --> 00:51:04,645
Not in the slightest.
697
00:51:04,713 --> 00:51:08,114
How would you like
to be my manager?
698
00:51:08,183 --> 00:51:12,085
I should want to first ascertain
what your earning potential will be.
699
00:51:13,321 --> 00:51:15,516
We're real kinfolk, Mr. Shores.
700
00:51:15,590 --> 00:51:18,150
Peggy and I are gonna earn
some money, and when we do...
701
00:51:18,226 --> 00:51:20,660
we'll make another record,
and then we'll be in business.
702
00:51:20,729 --> 00:51:23,926
You know somethin'?
I'm gonna make you rich.
703
00:51:23,999 --> 00:51:25,796
I'm already rich.
704
00:51:25,867 --> 00:51:27,801
You'll be richer.
Good night.
705
00:51:27,869 --> 00:51:30,099
- Thank you, Mr. Shores.
- You're welcome.
706
00:51:31,106 --> 00:51:32,630
You got it?
707
00:51:32,707 --> 00:51:35,870
- Okay, we're ready.
- Stand by, please.
708
00:51:35,944 --> 00:51:38,242
- What's this new label of yours?
- Laurel Records.
709
00:51:38,313 --> 00:51:41,407
Laurel number 101, take one.
710
00:51:48,790 --> 00:51:51,816
When I walk through that door
711
00:51:51,893 --> 00:51:54,691
Baby, be polite
712
00:51:54,763 --> 00:51:57,425
You're gonna make me sore
713
00:51:57,499 --> 00:51:59,865
If you don't greet me right
714
00:51:59,934 --> 00:52:02,562
Don't you ever kiss me once
715
00:52:02,637 --> 00:52:04,571
Kiss me twice
716
00:52:05,607 --> 00:52:08,303
Treat me nice
717
00:52:08,376 --> 00:52:11,504
I know that you've been told
718
00:52:11,579 --> 00:52:14,275
It's not fair to tease
719
00:52:14,349 --> 00:52:16,817
So if you come on cold
720
00:52:16,885 --> 00:52:19,513
I'm really gonna freeze
721
00:52:19,587 --> 00:52:24,024
If you don't want me to be
cold as ice
722
00:52:25,226 --> 00:52:27,956
Treat me nice
723
00:52:28,029 --> 00:52:31,055
Make me feel at home
724
00:52:31,132 --> 00:52:33,828
If you really care
725
00:52:33,902 --> 00:52:39,135
Scratch my back and run
your pretty fingers through my hair
726
00:52:39,207 --> 00:52:42,370
You know I'd be your slave
727
00:52:42,444 --> 00:52:45,140
If you asked me to
728
00:52:45,213 --> 00:52:47,943
But if you don't behave
729
00:52:48,016 --> 00:52:50,246
I'll walk right out on you
730
00:52:50,318 --> 00:52:54,846
If you want my love
then take my advice
731
00:52:55,990 --> 00:52:59,050
Treat me nice
732
00:52:59,127 --> 00:53:01,925
Make me feel at home
733
00:53:01,996 --> 00:53:04,658
If you really care
734
00:53:04,733 --> 00:53:10,000
Scratch my back and run
your pretty fingers through my hair
735
00:53:10,071 --> 00:53:13,234
You know I'd be your slave
736
00:53:13,308 --> 00:53:15,902
If you asked me to
737
00:53:15,977 --> 00:53:18,411
But if you don't behave
738
00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:21,142
I'll walk right out on you
739
00:53:21,216 --> 00:53:25,676
If you want my love
then take my advice
740
00:53:26,855 --> 00:53:28,288
Treat me nice
741
00:53:29,758 --> 00:53:31,191
Treat me nice
742
00:53:32,327 --> 00:53:34,818
Treat me nice
743
00:53:34,896 --> 00:53:37,262
If you really want my lovin'
744
00:53:37,332 --> 00:53:40,460
Treat me nice
745
00:54:12,267 --> 00:54:13,894
- Hi, Ted.
- Hi, darlin'.
746
00:54:13,968 --> 00:54:17,131
What's this I hear about you quitting
Alba and becoming a recording tycoon?
747
00:54:17,205 --> 00:54:19,503
That's right.
Here's my first offering.
748
00:54:19,574 --> 00:54:21,599
"'Treat Me Nice',
Vince Everett."
749
00:54:21,676 --> 00:54:24,406
- How is it?
- Good enough to make me quit my job.
750
00:54:24,479 --> 00:54:26,879
And you want me to
give it a couple of shots?
751
00:54:26,948 --> 00:54:30,076
If you only would, Teddy.
It would mean so much to us.
752
00:54:30,151 --> 00:54:32,881
Well, we'll try,
see how the cookie crumbles.
753
00:54:32,954 --> 00:54:34,444
Thanks.
754
00:54:34,522 --> 00:54:37,013
Peg, how long are
you gonna be in town?
755
00:54:37,091 --> 00:54:38,524
About a day or two.
756
00:54:38,593 --> 00:54:42,085
Well, suppose we get together
and split a herring?
757
00:54:42,163 --> 00:54:44,097
- I'd like that.
- Good.
758
00:54:58,746 --> 00:55:03,342
"Folks, does your dog turn up his nose
at the same old canned dog foods?
759
00:55:03,418 --> 00:55:05,511
"Then why don't you try fresh meat?
760
00:55:05,587 --> 00:55:09,148
"Cy's Pet Shop will deliver fresh,
red, juicy horse meat...
761
00:55:09,224 --> 00:55:12,625
"wrapped in the size package
you demand, right to your door.
762
00:55:14,262 --> 00:55:18,460
"It's a bit more, but the treat for your
dog will be worth dollars in health.
763
00:55:18,533 --> 00:55:22,469
"Remember Cy's Pet Shop.
Telephone Mammoth-62480.
764
00:55:22,537 --> 00:55:25,529
"That's Mammoth-62480."
765
00:55:27,809 --> 00:55:30,004
Friends, I owe our listeners
an apology.
766
00:55:30,078 --> 00:55:33,775
Callers have complained they couldn't
hear all of the Vince Everett record...
767
00:55:33,848 --> 00:55:36,817
because of the commercial,
so we're going to play it again.
768
00:55:36,885 --> 00:55:40,150
We're doing it for Betty,
Maryjo, Linda, Julie...
769
00:55:40,221 --> 00:55:43,782
the gang down at Ray's Auto Upholstery
and... well, the list is too long.
770
00:55:43,858 --> 00:55:46,656
Apparently, just about everybody
wants to hear this new platter.
771
00:55:46,728 --> 00:55:49,993
So here he is, Vince Everett
singing "Treat Me Nice"...
772
00:55:50,064 --> 00:55:52,294
on the new Laurel label.
773
00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:20,318
Mr. Shores.
774
00:56:20,395 --> 00:56:23,193
I now have confidence in your
earning potential, Mr. Everett.
775
00:56:23,264 --> 00:56:24,561
You're in.
776
00:56:24,632 --> 00:56:28,261
For 10% of the record company
and 5% of your earnings.
777
00:56:28,336 --> 00:56:30,133
Nine percent of the company.
778
00:56:30,204 --> 00:56:32,638
That leaves me 51%
and controlling interest.
779
00:56:32,707 --> 00:56:34,106
Agreed.
780
00:56:34,175 --> 00:56:38,111
- And 4% of my personal take.
- I have the papers already prepared.
781
00:56:38,179 --> 00:56:40,204
With those figures?
782
00:56:40,281 --> 00:56:42,476
I anticipated you, Mr. Everett.
783
00:56:44,052 --> 00:56:47,715
How do you like that? He smelled
the money from 400 miles away.
784
00:56:47,789 --> 00:56:49,222
I think I got it made.
785
00:56:58,366 --> 00:57:01,028
Vince. Come on in.
786
00:57:02,770 --> 00:57:06,501
I just checked the record shop.
We sold 425 copies.
787
00:57:07,575 --> 00:57:10,100
- That's great.
- We got a hit.
788
00:57:10,178 --> 00:57:13,113
You stick with me, and I'll
put diamonds in your teeth.
789
00:57:13,181 --> 00:57:14,671
Oh, that's nice.
790
00:57:14,749 --> 00:57:17,217
How do you like the cuff links?
A dollar a week.
791
00:57:17,285 --> 00:57:20,118
Do you intend on using them
for a landing strip?
792
00:57:20,188 --> 00:57:22,986
It's the mark of a man's success.
793
00:57:29,864 --> 00:57:32,298
You look sexy tonight.
794
00:57:32,367 --> 00:57:35,302
You start the hammers
to pounding in my skull.
795
00:57:51,552 --> 00:57:54,885
You must have read my mind
when you wore this dress.
796
00:57:54,956 --> 00:57:58,050
- What's on your little mind?
- A celebration.
797
00:57:58,126 --> 00:58:00,924
Tonight's the night
for a real celebration.
798
00:58:00,995 --> 00:58:03,020
- I like the idea.
- We'll send up rockets.
799
00:58:03,097 --> 00:58:05,531
- But not with you.
- Soft music, loud champagne.
800
00:58:05,600 --> 00:58:07,795
We'll charge it to
Laurel Records' ex...
801
00:58:07,869 --> 00:58:09,928
- Not with me?
- No, not tonight.
802
00:58:10,004 --> 00:58:13,269
- Who with?
- I have a date with Teddy Talbot.
803
00:58:13,341 --> 00:58:17,300
- That record spinner? You're kiddin'.
- That record spinner made a hit for you.
804
00:58:17,378 --> 00:58:20,711
But I've already got reservations
at the local nightspot and everything.
805
00:58:21,849 --> 00:58:25,250
Vince, you should have made
reservations with me.
806
00:58:25,319 --> 00:58:27,344
I still have a life
of my own, you know.
807
00:58:27,422 --> 00:58:30,357
I thought this was one night
you wouldn't let me down.
808
00:58:31,592 --> 00:58:34,026
Vince, I don't understand
why you're so upset.
809
00:58:34,095 --> 00:58:38,259
You told me yourself. I asked you if
money was all you were interested in...
810
00:58:38,332 --> 00:58:40,823
and your answer was,
and I quote, "What else?"
811
00:58:40,902 --> 00:58:42,995
Ah, that was different then.
812
00:58:43,071 --> 00:58:44,971
Was it?
813
00:58:45,039 --> 00:58:47,872
Vince, I will not be subject
to your beck and call.
814
00:58:50,078 --> 00:58:51,670
Excuse me.
815
00:58:55,383 --> 00:58:56,816
- Hi, Ted.
- Hi.
816
00:58:56,884 --> 00:58:58,784
- You do look scrumptious.
- Thank you.
817
00:58:58,853 --> 00:59:00,787
- Be right with you.
- Okay.
818
00:59:02,056 --> 00:59:04,183
- Hi, Vince.
- What do you say?
819
00:59:04,258 --> 00:59:07,523
- Seein' much of our little metropolis?
- Oh, I've seen enough.
820
00:59:07,595 --> 00:59:10,086
Did you thank the man
for all the help he's given us?
821
00:59:10,164 --> 00:59:12,098
Oh, that's not necessary.
822
00:59:12,166 --> 00:59:14,794
Thank the man, Vincent.
823
00:59:14,869 --> 00:59:16,928
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
824
00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:21,032
Good night, Vince.
825
00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:27,375
Good night, Vince.
826
00:59:39,694 --> 00:59:42,595
After the success
of his initial record...
827
00:59:42,663 --> 00:59:46,690
Mr. Everett was enabled to command
more advantageous contracts.
828
00:59:46,768 --> 00:59:50,898
I was told the adolescents found
Mr. Everett's unique style of singing...
829
00:59:50,972 --> 00:59:53,372
quite titillating.
830
00:59:53,441 --> 00:59:57,172
Our expenses, however,
increased with gross income.
831
00:59:57,245 --> 01:00:00,874
I found transportation costs
to be particularly high.
832
01:00:00,948 --> 01:00:03,178
This, however,
was a deductible item.
833
01:00:03,251 --> 01:00:06,243
Oh, his choice of color was white.
834
01:00:11,626 --> 01:00:14,220
I doubted I could convince
the Internal Revenue Department...
835
01:00:14,295 --> 01:00:18,231
that all of Mr. Everett's entertaining
was for business purposes only.
836
01:00:20,201 --> 01:00:22,635
On the other hand,
my client felt extremely elated...
837
01:00:22,703 --> 01:00:24,728
over his latest good fortune.
838
01:00:24,806 --> 01:00:27,240
He'd been invited by
the National Broadcasting Company...
839
01:00:27,308 --> 01:00:31,244
to participate in a nationwide
television extravaganza.
840
01:00:41,856 --> 01:00:43,448
Hiya, pard.
841
01:00:46,360 --> 01:00:48,555
How are you? Huh?
842
01:00:53,634 --> 01:00:55,795
I guess you heard the news
about the TV show.
843
01:00:55,870 --> 01:00:57,804
Yes, Mr. Shores told me.
844
01:00:58,773 --> 01:01:00,206
Come on.
845
01:01:00,274 --> 01:01:02,868
I wanna introduce you
to a new member of the troupe.
846
01:01:05,346 --> 01:01:07,712
Laury Jackson,
this is Peggy Van Alden.
847
01:01:07,782 --> 01:01:10,717
- Pleased to make your acquaintance.
- How do you do?
848
01:01:10,785 --> 01:01:13,777
Laury is a real cool little singer.
I'm takin' her to New York with me.
849
01:01:15,790 --> 01:01:18,281
In that case,
I don't think I'll go.
850
01:01:19,794 --> 01:01:22,729
Were you planning to go?
What for?
851
01:01:22,797 --> 01:01:24,560
No reason I can think of now.
852
01:01:24,632 --> 01:01:26,600
Got nothin' to do with
the record business.
853
01:01:26,667 --> 01:01:28,464
Of course not.
854
01:01:28,536 --> 01:01:30,834
It's just like you said
that night in Joplin:
855
01:01:30,905 --> 01:01:33,635
"You and me,
it's strictly business."
856
01:01:33,708 --> 01:01:35,642
Let's keep it that way.
857
01:01:38,346 --> 01:01:41,577
Let me know when you wanna
cut another record, pard.
858
01:01:58,399 --> 01:02:01,664
Okay, I'll see you.
You gonna wish me luck?
859
01:02:05,373 --> 01:02:06,704
Luck.
860
01:02:06,774 --> 01:02:08,935
Where's my Vince boy?
861
01:02:10,077 --> 01:02:11,510
Hi, son.
862
01:02:12,346 --> 01:02:14,576
Remember me?
863
01:02:14,649 --> 01:02:18,107
Hunk, you old son of a gun.
How are you?
864
01:02:18,185 --> 01:02:21,416
You must be Peggy Van Alden,
the gal that started the record company.
865
01:02:21,489 --> 01:02:24,822
- How do you do?
- I'm the bird got Vince started, right?
866
01:02:24,892 --> 01:02:27,417
You'd better believe it. How'd you
know about the record company?
867
01:02:27,495 --> 01:02:29,725
I gotta keep up with
the activities of my partner.
868
01:02:29,797 --> 01:02:32,061
You've got more partners
than a square dance.
869
01:02:32,133 --> 01:02:34,863
Yep. I taught the boy plenty.
870
01:02:34,936 --> 01:02:37,734
You'll find out just
how well you taught him.
871
01:02:37,805 --> 01:02:39,238
Good night.
872
01:02:40,374 --> 01:02:41,966
That's a pretty little thing.
873
01:02:43,110 --> 01:02:45,374
Well, boy, I'm rarin' to go.
874
01:02:46,414 --> 01:02:49,144
How do you like it?
Thirty cartons of cigarettes.
875
01:02:49,216 --> 01:02:51,377
You old stud.
How about a drink?
876
01:02:51,452 --> 01:02:53,386
Sing it to me
in the key of G.
877
01:02:53,454 --> 01:02:57,550
Folks, meet Hunk Houghton,
the toughest old con in cell block 21.
878
01:02:57,625 --> 01:03:00,150
Howdy. Pleased to meet you.
879
01:03:00,227 --> 01:03:03,128
- How 'bout that drink now?
- You can pour me a gourd full.
880
01:03:04,665 --> 01:03:08,032
Uncle Matthew bonded bourbon.
Do you know how old this bourbon is?
881
01:03:08,102 --> 01:03:11,037
- How old?
- Twelve years old.
882
01:03:11,105 --> 01:03:12,936
Heavens above.
883
01:03:17,912 --> 01:03:21,348
That's like an angel dancing
over the tip of your tongue.
884
01:03:21,415 --> 01:03:24,907
It seems a shame to even
digest this bourbon.
885
01:03:24,986 --> 01:03:28,444
You made it, huh? I've been readin'
about it, and I feel proud of you.
886
01:03:28,522 --> 01:03:31,423
- Yeah, I've been lucky so far.
- Lucky?
887
01:03:31,492 --> 01:03:33,926
Talent. I knew you had it
the minute you opened your mouth.
888
01:03:33,995 --> 01:03:36,862
- Now you're goin' on TV.
- You know everythin', don't you?
889
01:03:36,931 --> 01:03:40,799
I feel good.
What's your plans for me, boy?
890
01:03:42,570 --> 01:03:45,038
Well, I ain't exactly
got any, Hunk.
891
01:03:45,106 --> 01:03:48,769
- No plans for Hunk, your old partner?
- What do you wanna do?
892
01:03:48,843 --> 01:03:51,710
I want a spot in that TV show.
893
01:03:51,779 --> 01:03:54,612
You're talkin' crazy, Hunk.
You better think it over.
894
01:03:54,682 --> 01:03:57,344
I've been thinkin' about it
for 18 years.
895
01:03:57,418 --> 01:04:00,046
Yeah, I know, but...
896
01:04:00,121 --> 01:04:02,282
times have changed
and styles have changed.
897
01:04:02,356 --> 01:04:04,756
You might fall
flat on your face, boy.
898
01:04:04,825 --> 01:04:07,089
I might get lucky like you too.
899
01:04:08,763 --> 01:04:12,563
I tried your style, like you taught me.
Boy, I laid a bomb.
900
01:04:12,633 --> 01:04:14,567
But you ain't me.
901
01:04:15,636 --> 01:04:19,072
I need one good break.
You can get it for me on that show.
902
01:04:21,709 --> 01:04:25,577
I owe you that much, but I
don't know how it's gonna work out.
903
01:04:25,646 --> 01:04:28,206
Oh, you let me worry about that.
904
01:04:28,282 --> 01:04:30,113
You're a good boy.
905
01:04:32,553 --> 01:04:35,147
Ladies and gentlemen,
a little while back...
906
01:04:35,222 --> 01:04:39,215
I had kind of a vacation with a bunch
of men in a big place out yonder.
907
01:04:39,293 --> 01:04:42,956
While I was there, these men...
908
01:04:43,030 --> 01:04:45,464
kind of guests, you might say...
909
01:04:45,533 --> 01:04:49,833
we'd get together and horse around
a little bit and sing...
910
01:04:49,904 --> 01:04:52,737
'cause we were havin'
such a good time...
911
01:04:52,807 --> 01:04:56,610
and we always had a lot of fun
with this one, "The Jailhouse Rock."
912
01:04:56,610 --> 01:04:56,837
And we always had a lot of fun
with this one, "The Jailhouse Rock."
913
01:05:08,522 --> 01:05:11,184
One, two
One, two, two
914
01:05:17,098 --> 01:05:19,828
The warden threw a party
in the county jail
915
01:05:19,900 --> 01:05:22,733
The prison band was there
and they began to wail
916
01:05:22,803 --> 01:05:25,294
The band was jumpin'
and the joint began to swing
917
01:05:25,372 --> 01:05:28,102
You should've heard
those knocked-out jailbirds sing
918
01:05:28,175 --> 01:05:30,200
Let's rock
919
01:05:30,277 --> 01:05:32,541
Everybody, let's rock
920
01:05:33,881 --> 01:05:36,907
Everybody in the whole cell block
921
01:05:36,984 --> 01:05:39,953
Was dancin' to the jailhouse rock
922
01:05:40,020 --> 01:05:42,921
Spider Murphy played
the tenor saxophone
923
01:05:42,990 --> 01:05:45,823
Little Joe was blowin'
on the slide trombone
924
01:05:45,893 --> 01:05:48,293
The drummer boy from Illinois
went crash, boom, bang
925
01:05:48,362 --> 01:05:51,229
The whole rhythm section
was a purple gang
926
01:05:51,298 --> 01:05:53,232
Let's rock
927
01:05:53,300 --> 01:05:55,234
Everybody, let's rock
928
01:05:57,004 --> 01:05:59,939
Everybody in the whole cell block
929
01:06:00,007 --> 01:06:02,999
Was dancin' to the jailhouse rock
930
01:06:03,077 --> 01:06:05,875
Number 47 said to number 3
931
01:06:05,946 --> 01:06:08,676
You're the cutest jailbird
I ever did see
932
01:06:08,749 --> 01:06:11,513
I sure would be delighted
with your company
933
01:06:11,585 --> 01:06:14,076
Come on and do
the jailhouse rock with me
934
01:06:14,155 --> 01:06:16,248
- Let's rock
- Go, go, go
935
01:06:16,323 --> 01:06:19,759
- Everybody, let's rock
- Lay it on me, daddy-o
936
01:06:19,827 --> 01:06:22,762
Everybody in the whole cell block
937
01:06:22,830 --> 01:06:25,355
Was dancin' to the jailhouse rock
938
01:06:26,233 --> 01:06:28,861
Rock, rock
Rock, rock
939
01:06:28,936 --> 01:06:31,769
Rock to the jailhouse rock
940
01:06:31,839 --> 01:06:34,535
Rock, rock
Rock, rock
941
01:06:34,608 --> 01:06:36,872
Rock to the jailhouse rock
942
01:06:36,944 --> 01:06:40,209
Sad Sack was sitting
on a block of stone
943
01:06:40,281 --> 01:06:42,841
Way over in the corner
weepin' all alone
944
01:06:42,917 --> 01:06:46,045
The warden said, hey, buddy
don't you be no square
945
01:06:46,120 --> 01:06:48,680
If you can't find a partner
use a wooden chair
946
01:06:48,756 --> 01:06:50,690
- Let's rock
- Rock, rock
947
01:06:50,758 --> 01:06:53,693
- Everybody, let's rock
- Rock, rock
948
01:06:53,761 --> 01:06:57,219
Everybody in the whole cell block
949
01:06:57,298 --> 01:07:00,199
Was dancin' to the jailhouse rock
950
01:07:00,267 --> 01:07:03,100
Shifty Henry said to Bugs
For heaven's sake
951
01:07:03,170 --> 01:07:06,037
No one's lookin'
Now's the chance to make a break
952
01:07:06,106 --> 01:07:08,540
Bugsy turned to Shifty
and he said, Nix, nix
953
01:07:08,609 --> 01:07:11,476
I wanna stick around
while I get my kicks
954
01:07:11,545 --> 01:07:13,604
- Let's rock
- Rock
955
01:07:13,681 --> 01:07:17,139
- Everybody, let's rock
- Rock
956
01:07:17,218 --> 01:07:20,210
Everybody in the whole cell block
957
01:07:20,287 --> 01:07:23,347
Was dancin' to the jailhouse rock
958
01:07:23,424 --> 01:07:26,222
- Dancin' to the jailhouse rock
- Rock, rock, rock
959
01:07:26,293 --> 01:07:29,126
- Dancin' to the jailhouse rock
- Rock, rock, rock
960
01:07:34,935 --> 01:07:37,733
- Dancin' to the jailhouse rock
- Rock, rock, rock
961
01:07:43,577 --> 01:07:46,375
Dancin' to the jailhouse rock
962
01:07:55,089 --> 01:07:56,920
Thank you, Mr. Everett.
Very good, Jack...
963
01:07:56,991 --> 01:08:01,052
but a couple of your dancers
missed their marks, and we lost them.
964
01:08:01,128 --> 01:08:03,187
We'll go right into
the hillbilly number.
965
01:08:04,498 --> 01:08:06,432
What's his name? Houseman?
966
01:08:06,500 --> 01:08:08,092
Hunk Houghton.
967
01:08:09,270 --> 01:08:10,703
All right, Mr. Houghton.
968
01:08:10,771 --> 01:08:13,507
Okay, cut to four.
Dolly in and hold.
969
01:08:13,507 --> 01:08:13,836
Okay, cut to four.
Dolly in and hold.
970
01:08:21,715 --> 01:08:25,845
I'm up in the mornin'
with the risin' sun
971
01:08:25,919 --> 01:08:29,480
I work like a slave
'til the day is done
972
01:08:29,556 --> 01:08:31,524
Just workin' and sleepin'
973
01:08:31,592 --> 01:08:35,289
- Where'd he come from?
- Some pal of Everett's.
974
01:08:35,362 --> 01:08:38,195
- Say, what is this?
- Don't blame me, Mr. Barton.
975
01:08:38,265 --> 01:08:41,632
It wasn't my idea.
He came as part of the Everett deal.
976
01:08:41,702 --> 01:08:45,729
I'm sorry. Deal or no deal,
he's off the show.
977
01:08:45,806 --> 01:08:49,003
Okay, Mr. Barton.
Everett might bellyache.
978
01:08:49,076 --> 01:08:52,534
Compared to the sponsor's pain,
his would be nothing.
979
01:08:52,613 --> 01:08:55,810
- I wonder what he ever did for Everett.
- I've got no money...
980
01:08:55,883 --> 01:08:59,614
Freddie, we're way over length.
We're gonna have to trim four minutes.
981
01:08:59,687 --> 01:09:00,949
Tell you what.
982
01:09:01,021 --> 01:09:03,854
We'll go right from
"The Jailhouse Rock" to the film clip.
983
01:09:03,924 --> 01:09:06,017
Cut the hillbilly number.
984
01:09:13,834 --> 01:09:17,565
I get calls and wires from all over
the world, but not little Peggy.
985
01:09:17,638 --> 01:09:21,096
No, not little Peg. I'll bet she
doesn't even tune me in tonight.
986
01:09:26,413 --> 01:09:30,440
Okay, baby,
you wait for me to call you?
987
01:09:30,517 --> 01:09:32,781
Well, it'll be a cold day in...
988
01:09:33,887 --> 01:09:36,151
Yeah, that's what it'll be.
989
01:09:38,659 --> 01:09:41,423
- That ain't gonna help.
- It always has.
990
01:09:41,495 --> 01:09:44,896
- I warned you, but you wouldn't listen.
- Don't rub it in.
991
01:09:44,965 --> 01:09:47,627
And don't ask for pity.
You taught me that.
992
01:09:47,701 --> 01:09:50,693
- Don't worry, I'll get along.
- How?
993
01:09:51,772 --> 01:09:53,967
One flop ain't a man's whole life.
994
01:09:54,041 --> 01:09:56,407
How'd you expect me to follow
that three-ring circus you put on?
995
01:09:56,477 --> 01:09:58,843
You couldn't have
followed a juggler.
996
01:09:58,912 --> 01:10:00,846
Naturally.
I haven't got your talent.
997
01:10:00,914 --> 01:10:03,280
That's right, you haven't.
So what are you gonna do?
998
01:10:03,350 --> 01:10:04,908
That's not your business.
999
01:10:06,720 --> 01:10:08,847
Now look, Hunk...
1000
01:10:08,922 --> 01:10:11,186
I'm gonna be honest with you.
1001
01:10:11,258 --> 01:10:14,250
I'm not gonna put the brakes
on my career now.
1002
01:10:14,328 --> 01:10:17,263
I don't want you as part of my troupe.
You're not good enough.
1003
01:10:21,702 --> 01:10:23,727
It's been a long time, Hunk.
1004
01:10:23,804 --> 01:10:26,568
Music changes every six months.
You gotta change with it.
1005
01:10:32,312 --> 01:10:34,974
I was in show business
when you were in wet pants...
1006
01:10:35,048 --> 01:10:37,107
and I'll be in it when they
can't remember your name.
1007
01:10:37,184 --> 01:10:39,778
Fine, but not with me.
1008
01:10:39,853 --> 01:10:43,254
- Aren't you forgettin' somethin', sonny?
- I was wondering when you'd bring it up.
1009
01:10:43,323 --> 01:10:45,883
Right down the middle, 50-50.
It's a legal contract.
1010
01:10:45,959 --> 01:10:49,122
Uh-uh. I put Mr. Shores
on that contract.
1011
01:10:49,196 --> 01:10:51,255
It's not worth the ink
it took to write it.
1012
01:10:51,331 --> 01:10:53,925
You should've checked
with a lawyer, dad.
1013
01:10:56,970 --> 01:11:00,201
I figured it was a contract in
good faith, more than how legal it was.
1014
01:11:00,274 --> 01:11:03,072
Is that what you figured, Hunk?
1015
01:11:03,143 --> 01:11:05,111
Is that what you figured...
1016
01:11:05,179 --> 01:11:08,478
even after the fan mail you knew about
that I got in the can?
1017
01:11:10,984 --> 01:11:12,918
A contract is a contract.
1018
01:11:14,421 --> 01:11:16,651
Let's level, huh?
1019
01:11:16,723 --> 01:11:18,918
Okay, you did me a favor.
1020
01:11:18,992 --> 01:11:21,927
You started me out in music,
and then you tried to rob me.
1021
01:11:25,599 --> 01:11:29,160
But I ain't forgettin' about the
whippin' you tried to buy me out of.
1022
01:11:29,236 --> 01:11:31,864
So I'm gonna honor that contract,
providing I don't hear...
1023
01:11:31,939 --> 01:11:34,464
any more of that jazz
about good faith.
1024
01:11:34,541 --> 01:11:38,500
I'm gonna honor it, Hunk,
but not for no 50%.
1025
01:11:39,980 --> 01:11:42,244
- How much?
- Ten.
1026
01:11:43,484 --> 01:11:47,215
I wonder if Shorty checked those airline
reservations. Will you find out for me?
1027
01:11:47,287 --> 01:11:49,721
- Ten percent, huh?
- Ten.
1028
01:11:52,025 --> 01:11:53,424
You know...
1029
01:11:53,494 --> 01:11:56,725
a punk like you is liable to get lucky
enough to make a million dollars a year.
1030
01:11:56,797 --> 01:11:58,822
That's just what
I intend to do.
1031
01:11:59,900 --> 01:12:02,130
And 10% of a million
is 100,000.
1032
01:12:02,202 --> 01:12:05,569
There you go. You were
always good at arithmetic.
1033
01:12:08,041 --> 01:12:11,499
You're gonna have the most expensive
flunky in show business.
1034
01:12:14,815 --> 01:12:17,909
After the television show,
the floodgates opened wide.
1035
01:12:17,985 --> 01:12:22,581
We had engagements in the best-paying
recreation centers in America.
1036
01:12:22,656 --> 01:12:27,252
Receipts doubled and redoubled.
Our tax situation became acute.
1037
01:12:27,327 --> 01:12:31,696
The record business was neglected
during this phase, much to my regret.
1038
01:12:31,765 --> 01:12:34,165
However, my hands were tied.
1039
01:12:34,234 --> 01:12:38,136
There seemed to be emotional problems
between the two principal stockholders.
1040
01:12:38,205 --> 01:12:40,173
The 40% participant...
1041
01:12:40,240 --> 01:12:43,403
refused to telephone
the 60% partner.
1042
01:12:44,478 --> 01:12:47,879
It was an impasse,
and highly unbusinesslike.
1043
01:12:49,049 --> 01:12:52,246
Finally, there was only one phase
of the entertainment industry left...
1044
01:12:52,319 --> 01:12:53,911
so we went there.
1045
01:12:53,987 --> 01:12:57,616
We signed a nonexclusive contract
with Climax Studios.
1046
01:13:00,694 --> 01:13:03,527
We welcome you, Vince,
with all our hearts.
1047
01:13:03,597 --> 01:13:05,963
You may find Hollywood
to be a lonely town.
1048
01:13:06,033 --> 01:13:09,002
You're new here,
and good friends are hard to find...
1049
01:13:09,069 --> 01:13:11,697
just as in any other industry.
1050
01:13:11,772 --> 01:13:16,038
I want you to know that you may feel
free to regard my home as your own.
1051
01:13:16,109 --> 01:13:17,599
Come to me anytime...
1052
01:13:20,147 --> 01:13:22,081
- Yes?
- The photographer's here.
1053
01:13:22,149 --> 01:13:24,208
Please send him in.
1054
01:13:24,284 --> 01:13:26,809
We want to get your publicity
campaign started right away...
1055
01:13:26,887 --> 01:13:29,481
so we're having
a studio photographer come in.
1056
01:13:36,663 --> 01:13:39,496
Mr. Everett, meet Miss Sherry Wilson,
your leading lady.
1057
01:13:39,566 --> 01:13:40,555
How do you do?
1058
01:13:40,667 --> 01:13:42,134
We thought some
photographs together...
1059
01:13:42,202 --> 01:13:44,796
- Sure.
- If you'll just step in there.
1060
01:13:44,871 --> 01:13:48,102
Thank you very much.
Now smile pretty.
1061
01:13:49,309 --> 01:13:51,743
That's fine.
Now maybe an action shot...
1062
01:13:51,812 --> 01:13:54,679
like you just signed your contract
and you're shakin' hands.
1063
01:13:54,748 --> 01:13:57,683
Smile pretty now.
Thank you.
1064
01:13:57,751 --> 01:14:00,345
Now we have a little chore
for you two young people.
1065
01:14:00,420 --> 01:14:02,183
We want you to be seen together.
1066
01:14:02,255 --> 01:14:05,452
I'm not doin' a thing for
the next couple of days and nights.
1067
01:14:05,525 --> 01:14:08,551
And, Sherry? Remember
that old cooperation, dear.
1068
01:14:08,629 --> 01:14:12,588
Of course. A job's a job
1069
01:14:13,567 --> 01:14:15,831
You'll find I grow on you.
1070
01:14:51,071 --> 01:14:52,663
Who's gonna see us here?
1071
01:14:52,739 --> 01:14:54,832
I got my eye on you every minute.
1072
01:14:57,744 --> 01:14:59,974
I thought we'd have
lunch at Romanoff's.
1073
01:15:01,281 --> 01:15:03,408
You can only eat
so much, you know.
1074
01:15:06,119 --> 01:15:08,314
On your left, across the street...
1075
01:15:08,388 --> 01:15:11,050
you will see the mansion
of Jack Benny.
1076
01:15:12,859 --> 01:15:14,656
Oh, brother!
1077
01:15:14,728 --> 01:15:17,424
- Sensational, huh?
- It's a smash.
1078
01:15:26,073 --> 01:15:28,701
Don't bother
seeing me to the door.
1079
01:15:28,775 --> 01:15:30,640
I could make it.
1080
01:15:30,711 --> 01:15:34,044
I asked for nothing,
I expected nothing and I got nothing.
1081
01:15:35,048 --> 01:15:37,414
What'd you expect for nothin'?
1082
01:15:45,525 --> 01:15:48,392
Okay, everybody,
let's get this show on the road.
1083
01:15:55,001 --> 01:15:58,869
Mr. Drummond, do we have to do
the love scene the very first shot?
1084
01:15:58,939 --> 01:16:02,204
Oh, we can't change
the schedule now, Sherry.
1085
01:16:02,275 --> 01:16:04,641
I wanted to sort of
work myself up to it.
1086
01:16:04,711 --> 01:16:06,906
Making love to that rube
won't be easy.
1087
01:16:06,980 --> 01:16:10,575
Oh, you'll be fine, dear.
You're a trooper.
1088
01:16:10,650 --> 01:16:13,483
- Let's rehearse it!
- On the set, everybody!
1089
01:16:14,554 --> 01:16:16,613
The situation is a simple one.
1090
01:16:16,690 --> 01:16:20,888
Vince, you've just come home
with great news about your promotion...
1091
01:16:20,961 --> 01:16:23,759
but your wife is lying
on the couch with a bad headache.
1092
01:16:23,830 --> 01:16:25,855
You're bursting with happiness...
1093
01:16:25,932 --> 01:16:28,799
but when you see she isn't well,
you're concerned for her.
1094
01:16:28,869 --> 01:16:32,361
You kiss her tenderly,
and then tell her. Got it?
1095
01:16:32,439 --> 01:16:34,532
- Got it.
- Let's run through it.
1096
01:16:35,442 --> 01:16:37,171
Quiet on the set!
1097
01:16:41,414 --> 01:16:43,746
All right, Vince, come in.
1098
01:16:43,817 --> 01:16:46,183
Hey, honey, guess what?
1099
01:16:46,253 --> 01:16:48,551
I finally got that promotion.
1100
01:16:48,622 --> 01:16:50,249
What's the matter?
1101
01:16:50,323 --> 01:16:53,292
I guess it's one of those
miserable headaches again.
1102
01:16:53,360 --> 01:16:55,988
- Did you take any aspirin?
- It doesn't seem to do any good.
1103
01:16:56,897 --> 01:16:58,831
Let me rub your temples.
1104
01:17:04,471 --> 01:17:07,031
Good. Now kiss her.
1105
01:17:08,642 --> 01:17:10,132
Gently!
1106
01:17:18,418 --> 01:17:20,511
No, Vince!
Let's try it again!
1107
01:17:33,233 --> 01:17:36,930
- How's your headache?
- I'm coming all unglued.
1108
01:17:46,947 --> 01:17:49,040
- You know how to float?
- No.
1109
01:17:49,115 --> 01:17:51,606
Come on. I'll teach you.
Come on.
1110
01:17:53,720 --> 01:17:56,518
There you go.
Lay your head back.
1111
01:17:57,591 --> 01:18:00,287
Move your arms.
Kick your feet.
1112
01:18:01,761 --> 01:18:04,559
There you go.
Okay, you're on your own.
1113
01:18:14,307 --> 01:18:16,673
- I wanna throw a party.
- For what?
1114
01:18:16,743 --> 01:18:18,108
To celebrate.
1115
01:18:31,491 --> 01:18:33,425
You don't like crazy music
1116
01:18:33,493 --> 01:18:36,553
You don't like rockin' bands
1117
01:18:36,630 --> 01:18:39,064
You just wanna go
to a movie show
1118
01:18:39,132 --> 01:18:40,827
And sit there holdin' hands
1119
01:18:40,901 --> 01:18:43,233
You're so square
1120
01:18:43,303 --> 01:18:45,396
Baby, I don't care
1121
01:18:46,706 --> 01:18:49,174
You don't like hot rod racin'
1122
01:18:49,242 --> 01:18:51,676
Or drivin' late at night
1123
01:18:51,745 --> 01:18:54,179
You just wanna park
where it's nice and dark
1124
01:18:54,247 --> 01:18:56,078
You just wanna hold me tight
1125
01:18:56,149 --> 01:18:58,208
You're so square
1126
01:18:58,285 --> 01:19:00,344
Baby, I don't care
1127
01:19:01,688 --> 01:19:06,625
You don't know any dance steps
that are new
1128
01:19:06,693 --> 01:19:09,719
But no one else can love me
like you do
1129
01:19:09,796 --> 01:19:11,593
Do, do, do
1130
01:19:11,665 --> 01:19:14,031
I don't know why my heart flips
1131
01:19:14,100 --> 01:19:16,500
I only know it does
1132
01:19:16,569 --> 01:19:18,730
I wonder why I love you, babe
1133
01:19:18,805 --> 01:19:22,935
I guess it's just because
you're so square
1134
01:19:23,009 --> 01:19:25,477
Baby, I don't care
1135
01:19:25,545 --> 01:19:27,979
Baby, I don't care
1136
01:19:43,630 --> 01:19:46,064
I don't know why my heart flips
1137
01:19:46,132 --> 01:19:47,895
I only know it does
1138
01:19:47,968 --> 01:19:50,903
I wonder why I love you, babe
1139
01:19:50,971 --> 01:19:54,907
I guess it's just because
you're so square
1140
01:19:54,975 --> 01:19:57,341
Baby, I don't care
1141
01:19:57,410 --> 01:19:59,844
Baby, I don't care
1142
01:19:59,913 --> 01:20:02,848
Baby, I don't care, care, care
1143
01:20:02,916 --> 01:20:05,441
I don't care, care, care
1144
01:20:17,564 --> 01:20:20,362
Gee, Vince, when you sing,
it's really gonesville.
1145
01:20:20,433 --> 01:20:22,560
- All for you, honey.
- 'Bye.
1146
01:20:24,804 --> 01:20:28,069
I didn't see you applauding.
You didn't like me?
1147
01:20:28,141 --> 01:20:30,507
You've come a long way
since cell block 21.
1148
01:20:30,577 --> 01:20:32,670
Yeah, and it's been
a tough road to hoe.
1149
01:20:32,746 --> 01:20:36,113
I don't know. You hardly haven't
touched the ground at all.
1150
01:20:37,350 --> 01:20:38,783
What do you mean?
1151
01:20:38,852 --> 01:20:41,082
You walked most of the way
on other people.
1152
01:20:42,222 --> 01:20:44,213
You're just gettin' bitter,
old buddy.
1153
01:20:45,892 --> 01:20:48,861
- Doll, where've you been?
- Right in your little heart.
1154
01:20:48,928 --> 01:20:51,294
You didn't say a thing
about my outfit.
1155
01:20:52,265 --> 01:20:53,960
Flippy.
1156
01:20:54,034 --> 01:20:55,865
Real flippy.
1157
01:21:13,486 --> 01:21:15,750
I thought you'd
never come back, Peg.
1158
01:21:17,590 --> 01:21:19,854
Every time I see you,
you're working a neck.
1159
01:21:19,926 --> 01:21:22,486
I just been waitin'
and wonderin'...
1160
01:21:22,562 --> 01:21:25,190
if you missed me
like I missed you.
1161
01:21:25,265 --> 01:21:28,723
There was always the telephone.
It would've been nice if you'd called.
1162
01:21:28,802 --> 01:21:32,260
I been up to my ears in work, Peg.
No foolin'.
1163
01:21:32,338 --> 01:21:33,930
I understand.
1164
01:21:35,308 --> 01:21:38,641
The real reason I came
was about the record company.
1165
01:21:38,711 --> 01:21:41,441
Isn't it about time
you cut a few sides?
1166
01:21:41,514 --> 01:21:43,277
Records?
1167
01:21:43,349 --> 01:21:46,216
Is that why you came back?
1168
01:21:46,286 --> 01:21:49,084
Nobody gets so big that they
can ignore the records, Vince.
1169
01:21:49,155 --> 01:21:50,713
Not even you.
1170
01:21:52,425 --> 01:21:54,893
Sure, I'll make records.
1171
01:21:56,329 --> 01:21:58,297
You set up a date, huh?
1172
01:21:58,364 --> 01:22:01,299
Now if you'll excuse me,
I'll see that my guests are happy.
1173
01:22:05,605 --> 01:22:08,130
How do you like
our movie star, Peggy?
1174
01:22:08,208 --> 01:22:10,176
He has adapted very quickly.
1175
01:22:10,243 --> 01:22:13,576
There's not much oxygen up where he is,
and a man gets lightheaded.
1176
01:22:15,181 --> 01:22:17,342
Most actors,
when they become stars...
1177
01:22:17,417 --> 01:22:20,818
go through a brief period
of being modest.
1178
01:22:20,887 --> 01:22:23,321
Not our boy.
He became a heel overnight.
1179
01:22:23,389 --> 01:22:26,153
What are you doin'
here today, Peg?
1180
01:22:26,226 --> 01:22:28,285
I guess I like punishment.
1181
01:22:28,361 --> 01:22:30,522
You don't have to
take it, you know.
1182
01:22:30,597 --> 01:22:32,690
I'll learn.
1183
01:22:32,765 --> 01:22:33,857
Sure.
1184
01:22:35,135 --> 01:22:37,695
You're too smart a gal
to let him cut you up.
1185
01:22:38,505 --> 01:22:40,063
Sure I am.
1186
01:22:40,140 --> 01:22:43,041
- Where's Mr. Everett?
- He's over there.
1187
01:22:45,512 --> 01:22:45,645
Mr. Everett, may I speak to you?
I have startling news.
1188
01:22:45,645 --> 01:22:49,172
Mr. Everett, may I speak to you?
I have startling news.
1189
01:22:49,249 --> 01:22:50,716
Did you hit uranium?
1190
01:22:50,783 --> 01:22:54,241
I've just received a most impressive
proposition from Geneva Records.
1191
01:22:54,320 --> 01:22:56,845
Ah, don't mention
that clip joint to me.
1192
01:22:56,923 --> 01:23:01,417
Even though it involves three-quarters
of a million dollars in capital gains?
1193
01:23:01,494 --> 01:23:04,258
- Mention it.
- They want to buy Laurel Records.
1194
01:23:04,330 --> 01:23:08,562
In addition to sale price, they want you
in an exclusive contract for recordings.
1195
01:23:08,635 --> 01:23:10,068
For which they'll pay?
1196
01:23:10,136 --> 01:23:14,334
Seven and one half percent
of all the records you sell.
1197
01:23:14,407 --> 01:23:16,739
No artist has ever received
an offer that big.
1198
01:23:17,510 --> 01:23:19,068
What about Peggy?
1199
01:23:19,145 --> 01:23:20,942
I haven't discussed it with her.
1200
01:23:21,014 --> 01:23:23,778
Good. Let me talk to her.
1201
01:23:26,452 --> 01:23:29,216
You're due at the studio in
a half hour to shoot that last scene.
1202
01:23:30,823 --> 01:23:33,348
Order up some booze so I can
pour a few drinks for the crew.
1203
01:23:33,426 --> 01:23:35,394
Yes, your majesty.
1204
01:23:35,461 --> 01:23:38,362
These dogs don't get enough exercise.
They're gettin' fat and lazy.
1205
01:23:38,431 --> 01:23:40,899
- Why don't you hunt 'em?
- I got a better idea.
1206
01:23:40,967 --> 01:23:42,559
Take 'em for a walk.
1207
01:23:46,239 --> 01:23:48,173
What's the matter?
1208
01:23:49,409 --> 01:23:51,536
My contract says nothing
about walkin' dogs.
1209
01:23:51,611 --> 01:23:53,670
Contract?
1210
01:23:53,746 --> 01:23:55,236
What contract?
1211
01:24:00,286 --> 01:24:02,049
Okay, I'll walk your dogs.
1212
01:24:05,058 --> 01:24:08,221
You know I ain't askin' you
to shine my shoes or nothin'.
1213
01:24:09,896 --> 01:24:13,093
A man just takes so much, sonny.
1214
01:24:13,166 --> 01:24:15,100
Keep that in mind.
1215
01:24:22,175 --> 01:24:25,008
It's been a wonderful party.
Let's do it again.
1216
01:24:25,078 --> 01:24:27,478
- Thank you very much.
- Good-bye.
1217
01:24:27,547 --> 01:24:30,414
Vince, see you.
Take it easy.
1218
01:24:50,670 --> 01:24:53,332
Where've you been?
Almost everybody's gone.
1219
01:24:53,406 --> 01:24:56,933
- I missed a streetcar.
- Let me fix you a blast, huh?
1220
01:25:00,013 --> 01:25:01,947
You missed a swell party.
1221
01:25:03,449 --> 01:25:06,646
What is it that you wanted
to talk about, Vince?
1222
01:25:06,719 --> 01:25:08,653
Oh, yeah.
See you fellas later.
1223
01:25:17,730 --> 01:25:21,325
- It's about the record company, Peg.
- Mush, you coyotes!
1224
01:25:26,706 --> 01:25:28,640
Who's buyin' the drinks?
1225
01:25:41,220 --> 01:25:43,154
What have you been doin'
to these dogs?
1226
01:25:43,222 --> 01:25:45,213
I almost walked
the feet off 'em.
1227
01:25:45,291 --> 01:25:48,021
I covered eight miles
and four saloons.
1228
01:25:48,094 --> 01:25:50,255
What are you tryin'
to prove, dad?
1229
01:25:50,330 --> 01:25:53,356
Well, you said to exercise 'em.
1230
01:25:53,433 --> 01:25:56,493
I was afraid the Indians
would cut us off at the pass.
1231
01:25:57,570 --> 01:25:59,435
I don't see nothin' funny!
1232
01:25:59,505 --> 01:26:02,440
Vince, what about Laurel Records?
What is it?
1233
01:26:12,819 --> 01:26:16,755
We got an offer for the label.
It's too good to turn down.
1234
01:26:16,823 --> 01:26:20,782
- What kind of an offer?
- To sell out to Geneva Records.
1235
01:26:20,860 --> 01:26:23,988
Wait a minute.
Wait'll you hear the deal.
1236
01:26:24,063 --> 01:26:28,124
Seven hundred and fifty thousand
dollars, a capital gain.
1237
01:26:28,201 --> 01:26:32,160
That's 225,000 in cold cash
for you, after taxes.
1238
01:26:33,206 --> 01:26:35,174
But, Vince,
I don't wanna sell out.
1239
01:26:35,241 --> 01:26:37,709
You got no choice, kid.
I own...
1240
01:26:37,777 --> 01:26:39,972
I know. Sixty percent.
1241
01:26:42,248 --> 01:26:44,512
That's the way the mop flops.
1242
01:26:45,585 --> 01:26:47,519
You'd think I was
tryin' to rob you.
1243
01:26:47,587 --> 01:26:50,988
You're getting practically
a quarter of a million dollars!
1244
01:26:51,057 --> 01:26:52,991
Dollars!
1245
01:26:54,994 --> 01:26:57,895
Is that the beginning
and the end of the world for you?
1246
01:26:57,964 --> 01:27:00,558
Is there no emotion left in you
but the lust for money?
1247
01:27:01,968 --> 01:27:03,230
Emotion?
1248
01:27:04,504 --> 01:27:06,233
What emotion?
1249
01:27:08,207 --> 01:27:11,665
It's strictly business
between you and me. You said that.
1250
01:27:11,744 --> 01:27:14,008
I don't care what I said.
1251
01:27:15,081 --> 01:27:17,948
We started this thing together.
1252
01:27:18,017 --> 01:27:21,509
We nursed it and
brought it up, you and I.
1253
01:27:21,587 --> 01:27:24,249
It may be just a ledger page
to you and Mr. Shores...
1254
01:27:24,323 --> 01:27:26,848
but to me
it's part of my life!
1255
01:27:28,161 --> 01:27:31,756
Go ahead and sell it!
I don't care what you do!
1256
01:27:37,537 --> 01:27:38,970
Nothin' but a record company.
1257
01:27:40,473 --> 01:27:43,533
It's not just the record company
that's botherin' her.
1258
01:27:46,679 --> 01:27:49,705
Trampin' on me
is one thing, sonny.
1259
01:27:49,782 --> 01:27:52,012
Hurtin' a little girl
like Peggy is another.
1260
01:27:52,084 --> 01:27:54,609
Just don't you go gettin'
no ideas, Hunk.
1261
01:27:54,687 --> 01:27:57,815
There comes a time when you gotta take
a hand in things, and that time is now.
1262
01:27:57,890 --> 01:28:00,552
- Don't push me, Hunk.
- I'm gonna beat hell outta you.
1263
01:28:00,626 --> 01:28:03,094
Don't try.
You're talkin' crazy, man.
1264
01:28:03,162 --> 01:28:05,824
- You know you got it comin', son.
- I said, don't try!
1265
01:28:09,569 --> 01:28:11,662
Man, what's the matter with you?
1266
01:28:16,742 --> 01:28:19,802
Now stop it, Hunk!
Just stop it!
1267
01:28:19,879 --> 01:28:21,141
Stop it!
1268
01:28:22,882 --> 01:28:25,146
Get up and fight,
you yellow punk!
1269
01:28:26,752 --> 01:28:30,279
I don't wanna fight you, Hunk.
I told you I don't wanna fight you!
1270
01:28:42,368 --> 01:28:44,598
There's your contract.
1271
01:28:46,472 --> 01:28:48,872
What's the matter?
1272
01:28:51,677 --> 01:28:53,269
What's the matter?
1273
01:28:57,149 --> 01:28:59,276
Somebody get an ambulance!
1274
01:28:59,352 --> 01:29:02,150
Get an ambulance!
Hurry up!
1275
01:29:45,798 --> 01:29:47,925
Well, it was a close call.
1276
01:29:48,000 --> 01:29:50,161
The blow hit him in the larynx,
or Adam's apple...
1277
01:29:50,236 --> 01:29:53,069
causing it to swell
and cutting off his windpipe.
1278
01:29:53,139 --> 01:29:56,006
- We had to do a tracheotomy.
- What's that?
1279
01:29:56,075 --> 01:30:00,068
Cut a hole in his windpipe down here
so that he could breathe.
1280
01:30:00,146 --> 01:30:02,774
Now, the big thing is his voice.
1281
01:30:02,848 --> 01:30:06,181
A blow like that can change
the whole structure of the voice box.
1282
01:30:06,252 --> 01:30:09,483
- You mean, he might not be able to sing?
- That's right.
1283
01:30:09,555 --> 01:30:12,888
We'll have to wait a few days
until the swelling goes down.
1284
01:30:12,959 --> 01:30:14,290
We'll see.
1285
01:30:14,360 --> 01:30:17,955
You can visit him in about 24 hours,
but please don't let him talk.
1286
01:30:45,725 --> 01:30:48,285
How do you feel?
1287
01:30:48,361 --> 01:30:51,660
Can I get you anything?
Bottle of whiskey or somethin'?
1288
01:30:54,367 --> 01:30:56,801
I want you to know
I feel terrible, son.
1289
01:30:58,137 --> 01:31:01,004
I can't find the words
to tell you how bad I do feel.
1290
01:31:06,178 --> 01:31:08,305
It was an awful thing I did.
1291
01:31:10,883 --> 01:31:14,910
If I could only take it back, I'd
cut off both my arms up to the elbow.
1292
01:31:20,359 --> 01:31:22,623
I can't ask you to forgive me.
1293
01:31:25,898 --> 01:31:28,332
I want you to know
I'll never forget it.
1294
01:31:47,853 --> 01:31:49,115
Hi.
1295
01:31:55,795 --> 01:31:57,387
You look fine.
1296
01:31:58,698 --> 01:32:01,428
We talked to the surgeon...
1297
01:32:01,500 --> 01:32:04,060
and he thinks
the operation was a success.
1298
01:32:08,274 --> 01:32:11,505
Hunk told me what happened
in the fight...
1299
01:32:11,577 --> 01:32:13,841
and the fact that
you wouldn't hit him.
1300
01:32:16,382 --> 01:32:19,112
I think it was wonderful, Vince.
1301
01:32:20,086 --> 01:32:22,384
It was an act of true love.
1302
01:32:23,989 --> 01:32:25,581
Yes, it was.
1303
01:32:27,626 --> 01:32:30,527
Don't be afraid to love, Vince...
1304
01:32:30,596 --> 01:32:32,757
because I love you.
1305
01:32:51,617 --> 01:32:52,948
How's it look, Doc?
1306
01:32:53,018 --> 01:32:57,148
It looks just like last week,
Mr. Everett: Completely healed.
1307
01:32:57,223 --> 01:32:58,554
Doesn't feel too good.
1308
01:32:58,624 --> 01:33:01,650
Well, the injury is healed
and the surgery was successful.
1309
01:33:01,727 --> 01:33:04,525
Your larynx looks
as good as it ever did.
1310
01:33:04,597 --> 01:33:08,533
Whether or not your voice is the same
can only be determined by trying it.
1311
01:33:08,601 --> 01:33:10,159
Sure.
1312
01:33:10,236 --> 01:33:13,797
Try it. Sayin' it's easy,
but what if it's not there?
1313
01:33:13,873 --> 01:33:15,306
Look, Mr. Everett...
1314
01:33:15,374 --> 01:33:18,775
these morbid fancies of yours
are doing you no good.
1315
01:33:18,844 --> 01:33:22,746
Unless you get hold of yourself,
you'll be a mute, musically speaking.
1316
01:33:22,815 --> 01:33:25,579
Give it a try.
Gotta find out sometime.
1317
01:33:25,651 --> 01:33:27,812
I don't know, Peg.
1318
01:33:27,887 --> 01:33:30,685
Well, now is as
good a time as any.
1319
01:33:31,891 --> 01:33:33,984
I got nobody to play for me.
1320
01:33:38,330 --> 01:33:39,957
Come on in, fellas.
1321
01:33:40,032 --> 01:33:42,000
Yo, Vince, how you doin'?
1322
01:33:42,067 --> 01:33:44,365
- Let's go to work.
- Hi.
1323
01:33:45,738 --> 01:33:49,230
Pretty big audience.
Give a man stage fright.
1324
01:33:49,308 --> 01:33:50,900
Now, Vince.
1325
01:33:53,679 --> 01:33:56,739
Okay, but just with the piano.
1326
01:33:56,816 --> 01:33:59,580
- The rest of you guys...
- We'll wait in the other room.
1327
01:34:01,253 --> 01:34:04,222
- Doc, you better stay here, okay?
- All right.
1328
01:34:27,079 --> 01:34:31,982
You're so young
1329
01:34:32,051 --> 01:34:36,488
And beautiful
1330
01:34:36,555 --> 01:34:42,391
And I love you so
1331
01:34:43,796 --> 01:34:48,460
Your lips so red
1332
01:34:48,534 --> 01:34:51,935
Your eyes that shine
1333
01:34:52,738 --> 01:34:57,903
Shame the stars that glow
1334
01:34:59,044 --> 01:35:03,310
So fill these lonely
1335
01:35:03,382 --> 01:35:07,614
Arms of mine
1336
01:35:07,686 --> 01:35:12,248
And kiss me tenderly
1337
01:35:15,127 --> 01:35:18,585
Then you'll be
1338
