1
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:40,434
Chances are you've never heard
of Preston Thomas Tucker,
2
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,757
dreamer, inventor, visionary.
3
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:45,319
A man ahead of his time.
4
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:52,349
Pretty, ism it?
5
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:54,716
Mr. Tucker's car has everything:
6
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,599
pop-out safety windows, rear motor.
7
00:00:57,680 --> 00:00:59,671
Oh, but I'm getting ahead of my story.
8
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,590
The first time he ever saw an automobile,
he was just a young boy.
9
00:01:05,320 --> 00:01:06,799
In his excitement, he found himself
10
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,992
with the wheels
of that automobile passing over his feet.
11
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:11,954
But he muddy road was soft.
12
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:13,269
He wasn't hurt.
13
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,556
And that was the first view of the machine
14
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:19,315
that was to mold his thoughts and actions
for most of the years of his life.
15
00:01:20,960 --> 00:01:24,351
Determined to learn how cars were made,
he went to Detroit,
16
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:28,030
where he met Vera Fuqua,
who worked for the telephone company.
17
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:31,078
They were married,
and, wasting no time, began a family.
18
00:01:32,320 --> 00:01:34,197
But he never lost sight of his dream,
19
00:01:34,320 --> 00:01:36,470
which was to design and manufacture
20
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,790
the finest automobile ever made.
21
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,436
He spent every minute he could
at the Indianapolis Speedway
22
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,989
and teamed up
with the automobile legend Harry Miller,
23
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,959
one of the greatest designers
of racing cars who ever lived.
24
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,912
In 1936, Mr. Tucker saw the war clouds
25
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:57,593
Booming on the horizon
26
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,553
and began working
on a high-speed combat car.
27
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:03,829
It was bulletproof, had air conditioning,
28
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,230
and mounted a power-operated gun turret.
29
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,794
The combat car was turned down
by the military.
30
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:11,958
It had one drawback, they said.
31
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:13,792
It was too fast.
32
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,629
The War Department's policy
at that time was
33
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,679
no combat oar should go
over 35 miles an hour.
34
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:25,914
His gun turret, however,
35
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,190
was immediately put into service.
36
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,200
Who can say how many brave Americans boys
37
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,191
owe their lives to the Tucker turrets?
38
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,398
And where were those turrets built?
39
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,399
In the most practical place
Tucker could think of,
40
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,756
in the barn next to his home in Michigan
41
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:42,751
where he and his family lived.
42
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:00,915
Oh, my God.
43
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,317
Hold that tiger
44
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:11,598
Hold that tiger
45
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:13,799
Hold that tiger
46
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:15,958
Hold that tiger
47
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:17,595
Hold that tiger
48
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:19,400
Come on out, girl.
49
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:21,476
What's this?
50
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:23,953
Did you put this in my car?
51
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:25,075
No.
52
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:26,798
Did you? What is this thing?
53
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:27,790
Open it.
54
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:29,709
What is it?
55
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,391
My friends, you are in for one doozie.
56
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:34,595
What can I call this?
57
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:37,149
This is history in the making.
58
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,756
Is there anything
you want to explain first about the dogs?
59
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:41,916
Oh.
60
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,031
Well, I traded the old Packard for them.
61
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:46,590
Oh.
62
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:48,754
One dozen trained dogs.
63
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,514
What are we going to do
with a dozen trained dogs?
64
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:52,829
What difference does it make?
65
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,031
You can't walk away
from a trade like that.
66
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,680
Are you dying to know whafs in here?
Huh? No?
67
00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:59,194
- Yes.
- Yes.
68
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,078
- All right. You're dying, huh?
- Yes.
69
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,271
Gallup took a poll last week to find out
70
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:04,839
what Americans want most
when the war's over.
71
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,389
Eighty-seven percent of the people
in this country said
72
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,391
the first thing they want is a new car.
73
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,070
Now, which would the public rather buy'?
74
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:15,551
The same old models Detroit
has been giving us before the war or...
75
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,518
the car of tomorrow...
76
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:22,916
today.
77
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:27,794
Looks like it's going 90 mph
standing still.
78
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:29,359
And you know who's going to build
these cars?
79
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:30,471
We are.
80
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,710
In five years, we're gonna put
the Big Three out of business.
81
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:34,757
Who we gonna sell them to? Buck Rogers?
82
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,036
Under the hood, we've got luggage.
83
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,230
The engine is in the rear
where it ought to be.
84
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,829
Look at this.
Individual torque converters.
85
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:47,149
- And that--
- You're crazy!
86
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,800
You'd have to have a wheel track
70 inches wide.
87
00:04:50,840 --> 00:04:51,875
Dinner's ready!
88
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:53,189
All right. Come on, let's go!
89
00:04:53,280 --> 00:04:54,111
How many?
90
00:04:55,280 --> 00:04:56,190
Everybody.
91
00:04:56,280 --> 00:04:58,476
How about the US Army'?
You boys hungry?
92
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,312
Orville, call your mother. You stay too.
93
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:02,797
Oh, Millie! Millie!
94
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:05,829
And our best dog food, huh?
95
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:10,632
Hold that tiger
96
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:12,633
Hold that tiger
97
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,351
Hold that tiger
98
00:05:17,280 --> 00:05:18,270
How much you going to tell him?
99
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:19,998
- I'll tell him everything.
- Watch out. Coming through.
100
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,151
- Got dirty dishes. They'll fall on you.
- It's all here.
101
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:23,950
Don't trip!
102
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,670
The fenders... lights.
103
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:28,159
Who's this guy Karatz?
104
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:29,150
He's a business man.
105
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,277
- Karatz, huh?
- I met him on the commuter train.
106
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:33,196
Finance.
107
00:05:33,280 --> 00:05:34,156
Finance?
108
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:35,715
Come here, Junior.
109
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,354
- Who's that?
- The man I've been talking about.
110
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:42,990
Abe Karatz.
111
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:45,799
Good luck, honey.
112
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:46,950
We'll be in the den.
113
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:52,869
Look at him.
114
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,193
Yeah. He's scary.
115
00:05:55,280 --> 00:05:57,669
He's not scary. He's from New York.
116
00:05:58,360 --> 00:05:59,270
Abe.
117
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:01,913
I appreciate you stopping by.
118
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:03,195
How long between trains?
119
00:06:03,280 --> 00:06:05,430
You like this?
Living here in the middle of nowhere?
120
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:08,994
You want a cup of coffee at 2:00,
3:00 in the morning, you'd die first.
121
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:11,512
Yeah, or you go in the kitchen
and you make one.
122
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:13,358
Who wants coffee at 2:00 in the morning?
123
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,193
You sit there, you read the paper,
you chew the fat with the waitress.
124
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,231
Here you look around,
there's nothing but scenery.
125
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,680
We're stuck with the scenery.
How do you like your coffee?
126
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:24,235
In the city.
127
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:30,319
Double fives again,
128
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:31,835
and he does it.
129
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:33,870
Cars?
130
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,276
You brought me here for cars?
131
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,153
Does that look like a car to you?
132
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,478
That is a gold mine I'm handing you
on a silver platter.
133
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:48,916
Forget it.
134
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:51,150
You got no chance.
135
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,640
How can you say that?
You haven't even heard my ideas yet.
136
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:56,835
Ideas?
137
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:58,838
Einstein's in the idea business.
138
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,989
He makes up numbers so high
only a dog can hear them.
139
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:03,275
But what's it cost him?
140
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,118
A piece of paper, a couple of pencils.
141
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,235
To manufacture a car,
you need millions of dollars.
142
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,392
Well, that is what Wall Street is for,
143
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:13,757
to float stock issues, Abe.
144
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:15,555
Who are you?
145
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:17,553
What do you know about business?
146
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,233
Any experience on Wall Street?
147
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:23,435
It's so revolutionary. This is how cars
are going to be made from now on.
148
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:25,916
Abe, and with your connections--
149
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:27,320
I don't have connections.
150
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:29,434
I have connections who have connections.
151
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,273
Speaking for them, myself,
and who do you believe, God?
152
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,710
Him, too... forget about it.
153
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:36,833
You got no chance.
154
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:12,109
Well, think about it.
155
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:14,671
Drive safely.
156
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:15,831
Yes, sir.
157
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:41,515
Preston?
158
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:45,436
Preston?
159
00:08:58,600 --> 00:08:59,476
Pile in, cutie.
160
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:01,238
Who wants ice cream? Let's go to Doc's!
161
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:02,151
Everybody!
162
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,559
- Man your positions.
- Watch out, Junior.
163
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,313
Let's see if we can
break our record time.
164
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,431
Come on! Hurry up! Get up there!
165
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:10,351
I've got my position.
166
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:23,716
It was pathetic how he loved the idea.
167
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,915
Embarrassing to see a man like that
trying so hard to play on my harp strings.
168
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:30,874
Anything to get in on the deal!
169
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:33,798
I'm going to make him sweat a while first.
170
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:37,878
Watch this baby accelerate!
171
00:09:38,560 --> 00:09:39,391
- Whoa!
- Whoa!
172
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,314
Hold that tiger
173
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:43,834
Sounds like Tucker again.
174
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,672
Yep! That's him. Let's go!
175
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:47,354
Hold that tiger
176
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:49,070
Hold that tiger
177
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:50,715
Hold that tiger
178
00:09:52,560 --> 00:09:54,039
Where's that tiger
179
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:55,794
Where's that tiger
180
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:57,678
Here's that tiger
181
00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,159
Where's that tiger
182
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:00,514
Here's that tiger
183
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:02,433
Where's that tiger
184
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,075
Here's that tiger
185
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:14,474
Who wants ice cream?
186
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:18,359
How you doing, Doc?
187
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:20,670
I'm okay, if you don't include everything.
188
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:22,913
How about sodas all around?
189
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,195
Triple scoops tonight.
190
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:25,509
Triple scoops.
191
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,789
You can have chocolate,
pistachio, strawberry.
192
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,315
- You can mix them all up, okay?
- Strawberry soda.
193
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,796
Hey, Tucker,
ain't those prefab houses something?
194
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,520
Anybody seen one of these houses?
How do you know they're any good?
195
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:39,559
They're not even built yet.
196
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,469
So what? It says so in the magazine.
197
00:10:42,560 --> 00:10:43,630
Johnny, stop.
198
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:45,154
Yuck! He spilled it.
199
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,671
Noble, stop eating my sundae.
200
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:48,875
Stop it, Johnny.
201
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,670
Hey, does anybody want strawberry?
202
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,273
Hold that tiger
203
00:10:53,680 --> 00:10:55,193
Hold that tiger
204
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:56,759
Working with a writer he knew,
205
00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:00,310
Tucker got an article about the car
published in Pic magazine.
206
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:02,757
But nobody, not even Tucker,
207
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:04,513
was prepared for what happened.
208
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:05,951
Within a week,
209
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:09,874
more than 150,000 letters poured in
from all over the country.
210
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,470
“How can I see a Tucker?“
“I want a Tucker.“
211
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:14,433
"Where can I buy a Tucker?"
212
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:15,999
"How can I get a dealership?"
213
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,073
Overnight,
the nation had gone Tucker crazy.
214
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,239
Just because this Tucker
can build a car in his barn
215
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,197
doesn't mean he can mass produce it.
216
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:29,710
So...
217
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,113
what do we need to make this work?
218
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:36,635
Well, we need a car.
219
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:37,869
A car we got.
220
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:39,594
A working prototype?
221
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:42,153
Says so in the magazine.
222
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,470
We also will have to have
some big Detroit names
223
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,511
for the board, you know,
for the prospectus.
224
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:49,715
Like who can we get?
225
00:11:50,680 --> 00:11:54,036
Well, there was a fellow,
vice president at Ford for many years,
226
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:55,440
Robert Bennington.
227
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,909
He's the president at Plymouth
at the moment,
228
00:11:58,000 --> 00:11:59,798
but I hear he's being kicked upstairs.
229
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:01,554
Maybe we can get him.
230
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,473
As window dressing...
Will he want a say in running the company?
231
00:12:04,560 --> 00:12:07,359
Want a say?
Bennington? He'll run the company.
232
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:09,878
I'm not sure Tucker is gonna go for that.
233
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:12,838
People don't buy stock.
234
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,679
They buy people they can trust
or believe they can.
235
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:17,319
Now, if this what's-his-name--
236
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:18,515
- Tucker.
- Tucker.
237
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,240
If he's going to be a pain in the ass
about it, we might just as well forget it.
238
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,357
Don't worry about Tucker. He's a good man.
239
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:25,834
What else do we need?
240
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,836
We need a factory?
241
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,719
The car we got.
You get Bennington, whatever it takes.
242
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:33,960
I'll get the factory.
243
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:37,596
Thank you.
244
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:41,990
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
245
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:45,438
- Norfolk, Virginia.
- Norfolk, Virginia.
246
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,952
- Omaha, Nebraska.
- Omaha, Nebraska.
247
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:50,195
Wow.
248
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,436
Look, here's one from Anchorage, Alaska.
249
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,796
Oh! That's the first one from there.
250
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:58,557
Abe should have been here an hour ago.
251
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,554
You know the trains now, darling.
They're always late.
252
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:12,355
Who's that?
253
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,235
I was wondering, sir, if I can
have just a few moments of your time?
254
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:22,430
I'm waiting for somebody.
255
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,670
- Just five minutes, sir.
- Bye, Daddy!
256
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:26,116
What for?
257
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:27,999
I'd like to sell you something, sir.
258
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:28,956
What?
259
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:31,955
Me.
260
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:35,435
All right. Five minutes.
261
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,955
Thank you. I'm Alex Tremulis, sir.
262
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:42,116
Sir, I'll be getting out of the Air Force
in just a few weeks.
263
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,840
Before that,
I was studying automotive engineering.
264
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:47,995
And when I saw that article about your
car in that magazine, sir,
265
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:49,309
it's been driving me crazy ever since.
266
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:52,358
So I made a few 3-D perspective drawings.
267
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:54,798
If you wouldn't mind, sir,
taking a look at them.
268
00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,358
What you did, sir, with the streamlining
I think was fantastic.
269
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,116
But if we took that one step further,
270
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,555
if we could apply real aerodynamics,
271
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:07,677
let's say, like a rocket ship
to a family car--
272
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:08,955
You changed my doors.
273
00:14:09,560 --> 00:14:12,871
Yes, sir, because you only have
31 inches headroom.
274
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,554
A family car for an average-size person
needs 36.
275
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:18,790
But every time you open the door,
they hit the curb.
276
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,592
So I made them open up, out into the roof,
like an airplane here.
277
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:24,000
Time's up, kid.
278
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:25,834
Just two, two more minutes, sir.
279
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:27,399
- What do you want, a job?
- Yes.
280
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:28,515
You got it.
281
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:29,989
In the design department?
282
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:32,478
Kid, you are the design department.
283
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:36,559
Abe! Did you find it?
284
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:40,755
Tucker.
285
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:43,159
Do I have a lot to tell you.
286
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:44,794
It was a good meeting.
287
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:47,674
- Jimmy!
- Hello.
288
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:50,635
Jimmy Sakiyama.
289
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:52,599
Abe Karatz, my partner.
290
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:54,159
Hi. Nice to meet you.
291
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:56,156
How do you do?
292
00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,075
Jimmy, if you see Eddie,
tell him we'll be in the dining room.
293
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:01,195
You bet.
294
00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:05,033
Hey, didn't they put the Japs
in camp someplace?
295
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:07,559
- He's not a Jap.
- Really?
296
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:08,791
He's an engineer.
297
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:09,870
He's still a Jap.
298
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:13,156
Abe, Jimmy and me,
we've been together for 15 years.
299
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:14,992
I got him in my custody
to work on the turrets.
300
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,754
But his mother, his father,
his 12-year-old sister,
301
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,309
they're in a swell relocation camp
in Colorado,
302
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:22,878
if that makes you feel better.
303
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:30,750
Meshugana.
304
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:33,240
Hi there, Mr. Karatz.
305
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:34,196
How are you?
306
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,752
Which leaves three war surplus plants
we got a shot at.
307
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,400
Now, it's a long shot because everybody
in the country is trying to get them,
308
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:42,629
but it's worth a try.
309
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:45,640
One of them is perfect.
310
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:47,119
Nice, little.
311
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:50,197
The other is too big.
312
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,317
Costs twice as much to retool, but...
313
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,073
we could swing it if we had to.
314
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:57,709
What's the third?
315
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:00,029
Impossible.
316
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,799
The Dodge plant
where they made the B-29s in Chicago.
317
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:07,309
What's wrong with that?
318
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:13,315
For one thing,
it covers 475 acres with 16 buildings.
319
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,755
One of them is 73 acres long.
320
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:18,549
One building.
321
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,030
It's the biggest building in the world
under one roof.
322
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:22,514
It's perfect.
323
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,475
You'll love it in Chicago.
324
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:37,871
Listen, they've got a department store,
325
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,156
one of the biggest in the world.
326
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,550
Oh, everybody shops there.
327
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:44,711
Wait until you see it. You'll love it.
328
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:46,070
Fantastic!
329
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:47,556
Oh!
330
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:52,674
I can build everything I ever dreamed of
in this plant, Abe,
331
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:57,756
sports cars, family cars,
convertibles, trucks, even airplanes!
332
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,958
Now, all we gotta do is talk
the government into giving it to us.
333
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,239
Abe, what did they say?
Did you reach them?
334
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:04,799
Yep. We finally got our meeting
335
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,030
with the War Assets Administration
in Washington.
336
00:17:07,120 --> 00:17:09,316
- When?
- Monday. Three o'clock.
337
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:11,673
- Oh, that's no good.
- What?
338
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:13,953
It's got to be lunch someplace.
339
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:16,909
Do you realize the trouble I went through
just to get this meeting?
340
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:18,673
- Do y0u--
- With roast beef.
341
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:21,837
Rare. Very rare.
342
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,551
Every 25 seconds
343
00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:28,875
somebody is killed or crippled
344
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:30,834
in an automobile accident.
345
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:34,276
- Now 60% of all nighttime accidents...
- Excuse me.
346
00:17:34,360 --> 00:17:35,714
...happen on the curb
347
00:17:36,120 --> 00:17:38,589
because there is a two-second blind spot
348
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:40,591
between the time you turn the wheel
349
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,433
and the time your headlights
get to where you're going.
350
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:45,511
Now, in a Tucker, when you turn the wheel,
351
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,240
you also turn the fenders
and the headlights.
352
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:50,994
You see where you're going
before you get there.
353
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:55,711
This woman was thrown through
the windshield of her car.
354
00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:00,392
Tucker windshields pop out.
355
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,996
And to make sure nobody's face gets cut,
356
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:05,832
we have shatterproof glass.
357
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,669
We also have seat belts.
358
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:10,149
Now, why'?
359
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:12,514
Tell me why, gentlemen,
360
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:16,072
has the Big Three in Detroit
been allowed to make billions of dollars
361
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,152
without spending one dime on safety?
362
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:21,513
What I know, what you know,
363
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:22,954
what the public knows...
364
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,076
is that they don't give a damn
about people.
365
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:28,916
All they care about is profits.
366
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:32,469
Let me tell you something,
367
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,312
and I mean this
from the bottom of my heart,
368
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:38,839
the entire automobile industry of America
is guilty of criminal negligence.
369
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:42,318
And if it were up to me, they'd be tried
and convicted of manslaughter.
370
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,354
Thank you, gentlemen.
Thank you for the time you've given me.
371
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:50,675
I appreciate it.
372
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:00,793
Congratulations.
373
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:04,198
They hate you like poison, and so do I.
374
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:07,318
How did I ever let you
talk me into such a crazy--
375
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:10,518
I'm Oscar Beasley,
special assistant to the administrator.
376
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,319
Could you be in my office
at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon?
377
00:19:14,360 --> 00:19:16,431
Well... sure.
378
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:18,079
Good. See you there.
379
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:19,195
Mr. Beasley.
380
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,478
See how much you know. They loved it.
381
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:25,399
Would they want to see us again
if they didn't?
382
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,359
You're talking logic. This is Washington.
A Punch and Judy show.
383
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,511
- Why would he want to see us again?
- Politics!
384
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,390
We're being set up for something,
believe me.
385
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:35,913
We got no chance.
386
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,318
How could we kid ourselves
into thinking anyone would give us a loan?
387
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,711
All we've got are debts and more debts.
All of them, so far, past due.
388
00:19:50,120 --> 00:19:52,919
How does he do it, the genius you married?
389
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,073
No matter how much he makes,
he always manages to spend twice as much.
390
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:56,991
Yeah.
391
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:04,676
Hello?
392
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:06,433
Where the hell were you?
I was about to hang up.
393
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:07,669
How did it go?
394
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:09,831
Sweetheart, I had them
eating out of my hand.
395
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:12,870
By the time I left,
I could've asked for California
396
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:14,280
and gotten Arkansas to boot.
397
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,755
Oh, darling, I'm so sorry.
398
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:18,035
It's not dead yet.
399
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,432
Completely. Got another meeting tomorrow.
400
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:21,874
What does Abe think?
401
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:22,995
What does he know?
402
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:24,959
Hey, did you get the loan?
403
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:26,394
They're gonna think it over.
404
00:20:27,360 --> 00:20:29,158
You're a worse liar than I am.
405
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,149
Can you please come home soon, Preston?
406
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:35,035
Please?
407
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:36,515
I will, doll.
408
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:39,796
I love you.
409
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:40,870
I love you, too.
410
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:42,798
- I'll see you soon, sweetheart
- A/I right.
411
00:20:43,360 --> 00:20:44,236
Bye.
412
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:10,194
Mr. Tucker,
413
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,470
in brief, the committee has voted
to give you the plant in Chicago,
414
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:20,597
provided that you have certified assets
of no less than $15 million.
415
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,880
And to qualify
as a legal manufacturing company,
416
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,039
you'll be required
to produce at least 50 cars
417
00:21:27,120 --> 00:21:28,918
one year after taking possession.
418
00:21:30,120 --> 00:21:31,440
Is that satisfactory?
419
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:34,679
Well I...
420
00:21:35,360 --> 00:21:36,998
Sure, I mean...
421
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:38,630
Fine.
422
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,599
Papers will be ready for signature
five o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
423
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:45,355
Thank you.
424
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:49,436
Abe, why don't we let Mr. Beasley
get back to work?
425
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:04,469
Klondike 436.
426
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:05,880
Go ahead. I'll hold on.
427
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:07,280
This is her husband, Preston Tucker.
428
00:22:07,360 --> 00:22:10,193
Hey, Tucker.
United Auto Workers told Roosevelt
429
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:11,998
if he wants the labor vote next election,
430
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,152
he's got to give the plant
to a car company and only a car company.
431
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,039
Why me? Why not Ford, General Motors,
one of the Big Three?
432
00:22:18,120 --> 00:22:19,519
They don't want it. It's too big.
433
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:20,874
How can nobody want a plant like that?
434
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:22,473
Everybody wants it, but believe it or not,
435
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,359
you're the only lunatic in the country
dumb enough to want to make cars in it.
436
00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:27,315
- Doll?
- Yeah.
437
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:28,356
Yeah, he's right here.
438
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,159
Hold that tiger
439
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,629
What is it? What?
440
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:35,600
- Hey!
- Preston.
441
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:36,590
Hold on, babe.
442
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:39,433
How soon can you get the car to New York?
Monday, Tuesday, when?
443
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:40,396
Babe, hold on.
444
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:42,471
I got the best press agent
in the business on the phone.
445
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:43,834
To kick off the sale of the stock,
446
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,639
he wants to unveil a car on the street
outside the Stock Exchange
447
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:48,478
with a hundred-piece band, the Rockettes,
448
00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:50,710
enough razzmatazz
to make every investor in the country
449
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:52,871
get down on his knees
and beg to buy those shares.
450
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:54,669
Love, you hear that?
451
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:56,751
- You bet I did!
- We got it!
452
00:22:57,360 --> 00:23:00,034
The biggest damn plant in the whole world
and we're the ones who got it!
453
00:23:00,120 --> 00:23:01,679
Oh, that's wonderful!
454
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,229
All we need now is $15 million and a car.
455
00:23:04,360 --> 00:23:06,351
- That's all, huh?
- That's it.
456
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:09,514
- You love me?
- I love ya!
457
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:11,318
I love you too.
I'll see you soon, sweetie.
458
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:12,276
All right.
459
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:15,395
We need a oar?
460
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,198
Let's go out someplace to celebrate.
Have a drink.
461
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:18,509
Do we have a car or don't we?
462
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,394
Well, no, it's not a matter of...
463
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:24,118
Frank, I'll call you back.
464
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:27,474
You all right, Abe?
465
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:28,955
Huh?
466
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:32,712
Anything else you want to tell me?
467
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,039
Well, I don't have a dime
to build it with...
468
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:40,273
You all right? Huh?
469
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:42,036
Oh!
470
00:23:42,120 --> 00:23:44,634
Fifty thousand dollars for one car'?
471
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,519
It's a prototype.
Hand-built, don't forget.
472
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,280
How much you need to get started?
Forget the $50,000.
473
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:54,156
To get started'?
474
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:56,274
At least ten.
475
00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:58,870
I'll give you six.
476
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:00,596
If it turns out you're right,
477
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:04,389
we could sell a few dealerships now,
which frankly sounds crazy to me.
478
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:07,996
Why would anybody in his right mind
pay money for a car
479
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:09,991
that isn't even in existence yet?
480
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:15,754
I'm sitting here
481
00:24:16,360 --> 00:24:19,398
writing a check in my own handwriting
calling them crazy?
482
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:26,875
One thing.
483
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,032
We need it absolutely in 60 days.
484
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,556
Absolutely. Any problem?
485
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:36,389
Problems?
486
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:37,556
It's impossible.
487
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:38,914
Sixty days?
488
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:39,910
Or never.
489
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:40,996
Why?
490
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:43,549
Because we haven't sold enough stock
to buy a dead herring.
491
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:45,956
But the letters, all the excitement
when the article came out.
492
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:48,680
Tucker, there's people who buy cars
and there's people who buy stock.
493
00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:51,229
And right now, no major investor
will even consider us.
494
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:52,549
Yeah, but why 60 days?
495
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:55,234
- I mean, why not--
Because in 60 days, June 1,
496
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:56,879
we take possession of the plant.
497
00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,800
And on that day, and not until that day,
498
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:01,634
will the mystery car,
499
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,316
the car of the century, be unveiled.
500
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,277
- Uncle Abe?
- Yeah.
501
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,876
I was wondering why you always do that
with your nose all the time.
502
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:12,553
- Noble.
- What with my nose?
503
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:14,114
Move it up and down like a rabbit.
504
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,800
- Okay, everybody upstairs.
- I do that?
505
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:17,756
Oh, murder.
506
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:19,319
Students to the grindstone.
507
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:20,435
Noble.
508
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:22,596
Bye.
509
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:23,590
Goodbye.
510
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:26,475
Tell me, do I do that?
511
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:28,790
- You don't do that with your nose.
- All right.
512
00:25:35,120 --> 00:25:37,634
Mr. Tucker, sir, it takes Ford nine months
513
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,155
to go from model to prototype.
Nine months.
514
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,754
Call every pilman we know in Indy.
515
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:44,831
I can get Carrigan, Milton, maybe Tully.
516
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:47,357
- All right. Have them here by tomorrow.
- All right.
517
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,558
We gotta get moving right away. Buy clay.
We gotta get started on that model.
518
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:53,473
What about steel?
We got enough left over from the turrets?
519
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:54,470
Just about.
520
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,915
There are 24 hours in every day.
521
00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:59,318
Now, is there anybody in this room
522
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,199
who can look me in the eye
and tell me we can't do it?
523
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:04,319
We can't do it!
524
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:06,594
Except you.
525
00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:09,959
Better get with it.
526
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:12,630
- We can't do it!
- We can't do it!
527
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:16,353
Dad, I've... thought...
528
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:17,510
Mr. Tucker?
529
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:20,237
- E> 00:26:34,909
Dad, I've been trying to talk to you
about something that's been on my mind,
531
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,037
and each time I try and bring it up...
532
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:38,476
Look.
533
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:40,276
What's this?
534
00:26:40,360 --> 00:26:42,351
It's the answer from Notre Dame.
535
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:44,599
I got accepted.
536
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:47,877
- But l0ok--
- Hey! Congratulations!
537
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:49,434
I don't want to go!
538
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,999
Look, I want to learn
everything about cars from you.
539
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:57,234
I don't want to become President of
the United States or something.
540
00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:59,755
- That's not what I want to do.
- Who wants you to become president?
541
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:00,796
I thought you did.
542
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:01,915
As far as I'm concerned,
543
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,152
the two crummiest things a person can be
is a lawyer or a politician.
544
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:08,119
Why the hell would I want you to be
President of the United States?
545
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:09,554
Most of them are both.
546
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:11,800
So it's okay.
547
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,155
Sure. You can stay with me.
548
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:17,678
I'm going to depend on you.
549
00:27:20,360 --> 00:27:22,636
They just won't sell us any clay.
That's it.
550
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,834
Can't build a model without it and can't
build a prototype without the model.
551
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,480
Take it easy, kid.
Life's full of surprises.
552
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:31,356
Doug!
553
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:33,590
Chris!
554
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,872
Want you fellas to meet Alex.
He's head of the design department.
555
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,390
These fellas are the best damn
bodyknockers in the business.
556
00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:43,517
They can go from your sketch
straight to metal.
557
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:44,835
-Isn't that right, boys?
- Yes, sure.
558
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:46,274
How's this for a frame?
559
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:48,552
It's okay for a start.
560
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:50,714
Face this right now, Pres.
561
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:52,313
You got problems with this engine.
562
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:57,110
Our own engine? I should talk you out
of building one from scratch.
563
00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:00,079
Can't talk him out of falling off a cliff
once he's made his mind up.
564
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:02,551
The rear engine is the heart
of the whole car.
565
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:04,358
Just work the damn thing out.
566
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:06,799
Come on, you can do it, Eddie.
567
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:09,999
"You can do it, Eddie."
568
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:12,796
But I'm offering you
the opportunity of a lifetime,
569
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:14,639
a new car dealership.
570
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,469
The most revolutionary car
in automotive history.
571
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:18,994
- It's called the Tucker.
- Excuse me, sir'?
572
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:20,070
I'll be right with you.
573
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,390
It's got all kinds of safety features,
574
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:24,391
torque converters on every wheel...
575
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:26,630
Double torque converters won't work.
576
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:28,355
We need a transmission.
577
00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:30,355
Why the hell won't they?
578
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,239
If I had more time,
but we don't have time to work it out.
579
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,755
You remember the Cord 810 transaxle?
580
00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:37,990
That's the only transmission
I can think of.
581
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:40,518
Yeah, if you could find one.
582
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:43,034
What choice do I have?
583
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:44,590
But only for now.
584
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:46,353
The minute we finish that show in Chicago,
585
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,272
we're gonna start
building the car we advertised.
586
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:49,555
Now you're talking.
587
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:53,598
$7,500.
588
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:56,474
I never thought I'd live to see the day.
589
00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:02,791
Hey!
590
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,952
I didn't make the fenders move with
the wheels like you wanted to, sir.
591
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:11,754
Why the hell not?
592
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,638
Remember Frank Lockhard,
when he was driving the Stutz?
593
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,633
At high speeds they acted like rudders.
He got killed in the crash.
594
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:21,358
It was very dangerous, sir.
595
00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,513
What I did was, I made the light in
the middle turn with the wheels instead
596
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:26,591
which does what you want
and it works fine.
597
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:27,795
And it's safe.
598
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,189
You ever do that again,
something I told you not to,
599
00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:33,475
so help me...
600
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:36,834
I'll give you a raise.
601
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:39,390
Hey!
602
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:42,194
No reverse!
603
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:44,115
Can we fix it?
604
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:45,874
Not by Monday.
605
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:49,272
You'll get it.
Come on, Junior, give me a hand here.
606
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:51,394
All right, we'll get it.
607
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:55,270
Push!
608
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:02,791
Abe, I still don't like this idea.
609
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:04,758
We've got to do it, Tucker.
610
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,036
We need someone from Detroit
with experience
611
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:08,519
or we won't sell any stock.
612
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:10,750
As long as he doesn't try
to run the company.
613
00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:14,480
Mr. Tucker.
614
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:19,319
I've always admired innovative men
who are willing to take risks.
615
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:23,359
You know, I myself introduced
nylon seat covers in our new line.
616
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,149
So, when do I get to see the car?
617
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:30,514
Soon, Mr. Bennington.
618
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:32,358
Well, I hope it'll be soon.
619
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:35,000
The car has to be shown
in less than a week, doesn't it'?
620
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:56,918
The piston load during compression
is three times the normal family car.
621
00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:00,910
It needs a 24-volt battery to start it,
which don't exist.
622
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,230
How many volts in those? Six, right?
623
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,277
- Yeah.
- What about truck batteries? They're 12.
624
00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:07,749
Use two truck batteries. That's 24.
625
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:10,315
Vera?
626
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,869
What do you think of these pictures
in these brochures that they brought?
627
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,117
I want to talk to you about that.
628
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:18,277
That board of directors
they stuck me with...
629
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:23,917
I don't know if Bennington's an undertaker
or one of the stiffs he embalmed.
630
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:25,440
Preston.
631
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,680
How many years of testing? Fifteen?
632
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:32,000
I've been thinking about that car
a lot longer than 15 years.
633
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:34,196
Thinking about it is not exactly testing.
634
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:36,960
It's advertising.
You're not supposed to believe it.
635
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,318
I mean, if you're selling candy,
what do you advertise? It rots your teeth?
636
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:50,989
You caught me, didn't you?
637
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:55,311
Don't you give me that crooked
little smile you stole from Clark Gable.
638
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:58,630
What? I didn't steal that
from Clark Gable!
639
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:02,918
I saw you many times practicing
when you thought I wasn't looking.
640
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,118
Oh, now, this smile here. See?
641
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:09,319
This is my downfall.
642
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:13,555
The real you. The canary who ate the cat.
643
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:21,997
That smile made you do that?
644
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:23,954
Every time.
645
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:29,829
You know what this smile
makes me want to do?
646
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:31,839
Just punch you.
647
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:38,798
Let's stick with the canary.
648
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,516
Mr. Bennington, members of the board,
649
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:57,318
we have one major problem.
650
00:32:58,400 --> 00:32:59,595
Yes, Mr. Tucker?
651
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:02,840
Just what sort of problem is that?
652
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:05,435
Well...
653
00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:09,114
they're putting the squeeze on-- Detroit.
654
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:11,630
We can't buy clay, Mr. Bennington.
We can't buy steel.
655
00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:13,637
We can't buy anything.
Not enough to build a kiddie-car with.
656
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:15,114
That doesn't surprise me.
657
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:18,318
So, what I've done is, I've made
an appointment with Senator Ferguson.
658
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:20,836
Well straighten this thing out
eyeball to eyeball.
659
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:22,513
- Wait.
- No, you wait, Abe.
660
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,830
When you spot trouble,
you've gotta nip it in the bud.
661
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,594
What are you thinking?
A big smile and a pat on the back
662
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:29,990
is gonna make him forget
he's a senator from Detroit?
663
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:31,957
We're making cars in Chicago.
664
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:35,792
He's my senator, too, don't forget.
665
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:47,639
The senator will see you now.
666
00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:49,834
Very good.
667
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:56,157
- This way?
- Yes, sir. Right through that door.
668
00:33:58,560 --> 00:33:59,391
Senator.
669
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:02,589
Preston Tucker.
670
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:04,869
Mr. Tucker.
671
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:06,999
A.H. Karatz.
672
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:09,710
K-A-R-A-T-Z, huh? Huh?
673
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:12,438
Sit down, gentlemen. Sit down.
674
00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:15,514
Let's get right to the point.
675
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:18,434
You're one of the most powerful men
in Washington, I know that.
676
00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:19,430
Oh.
677
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:23,759
I also know that your main job is
to make sure that the Big Three--
678
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:25,035
Limo's here, Senator.
679
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:29,079
Well, I'm sorry, gentlemen.
It was just getting interesting.
680
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:33,199
But my plans changed on me
since we made this appointment,
681
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:35,750
as they always do every two seconds.
682
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:38,309
So I'm not going to be able to-- Alice?
683
00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:40,114
Did you take care of...
684
00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:42,077
- First thing in the morning, sir.
- Good.
685
00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:45,115
Huh? Walk me to the car?
686
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:50,556
Good day.
687
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:53,598
Senator, don't forget the four
o'clock meeting with Congressman Miller.
688
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:54,590
I got it.
689
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:55,590
Senator?
690
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:58,115
Just put everything in the sheet.
Bring it to the plane.
691
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,200
You... you like Jack Benny?
692
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:05,236
Senator!
693
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:06,510
Yeah, he's my favorite.
694
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:07,510
- Tickets.
- Very funny.
695
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:09,274
Oh, thank you.
696
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:13,354
"Problems are just opportunities
in work clothes."
697
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:16,159
That's a quote
from my friend Henry J. Kaiser.
698
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,071
- Karatz.
- Afternoon, Senator.
699
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:22,238
Oh, you get that thing we talked about?
700
00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:23,674
I got a phone call.
701
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,593
Call Tim. Tell him I told you, huh?
702
00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:31,759
When you were in Washington,
did you meet Harry Macdonald, head of SEC?
703
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:32,671
No, not yet.
704
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:34,558
Local boy, good man, loyal.
705
00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:37,909
So, who's your favorite comedian,
Mr. Tucker?
706
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,037
So this is the way you keep that figure.
707
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:41,793
That's one way, Senator.
708
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:47,709
It's quite an idea of yours,
709
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,474
selling dealerships for cars
that don't exist.
710
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:56,874
You remember that song?
711
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:58,473
Music goes round and round
712
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:00,312
Oh, oh, oh, 0h, oh
713
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:02,277
And I! comes out here
714
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:08,398
The Big Three should be indicted
for manslaughter, huh?
715
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:11,475
Funny line.
716
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:21,319
What was that all about?
717
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:24,357
Did he say anything? What did he say?
718
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,315
He said stay out of the car business,
719
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:30,438
or he'll cut your nuggies off.
720
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:37,272
All right. Now what?
721
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:39,271
I can't give you a fuel injection.
722
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:40,794
No fuel injection?
723
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:44,715
You want the car on time,
the only hope we got is twin carburetors.
724
00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:51,235
Goddamn it!
725
00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:54,919
Where is my car?
726
00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:00,153
What's left of it, anything?
727
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:12,114
Hi, Abe.
728
00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:14,714
- Vera, how are you?
- Great. Come on in.
729
00:37:15,240 --> 00:37:16,389
Uncle Abe! Uncle Abe!
730
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:17,515
Wha--
731
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:18,954
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
732
00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:20,110
My goodness.
733
00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:22,557
Whoa, look what I have for you.
734
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:24,517
It's from Chicago.
735
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:25,670
- For me?
- Yeah.
736
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:27,520
I hope you like it.
737
00:37:31,720 --> 00:37:34,109
Oh, I love it, Uncle Abe. I love it.
738
00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:37,670
Is it all right? I mean,
what do I know about ladies' dresses?
739
00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:39,239
- Can I try it on?
- Of course.
740
00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:44,636
Well, well, well. Oh!
741
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:46,713
- Oh!
- You got me.
742
00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:49,517
I got a present for you, Noble.
743
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:51,478
Something for you.
744
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:01,439
Well, tell me gently.
745
00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:03,435
Do we have a car?
746
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:07,829
Well... we've got something.
747
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:12,034
Does it look like the car in the ads,
at least?
748
00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:15,349
Looks like it.
749
00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:19,831
So why are you worried? Why you worried?
All they have to do is see it.
750
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:22,439
Made you a martini, Abe.
751
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:23,590
A drink. Come.
752
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:32,429
To the car.
753
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:34,797
- To the car.
- To the car.
754
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:43,519
Don't you just love it?
755
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:45,918
- Thank you, Uncle Abe.
- You're welcome.
756
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,389
Thank you. Don't you just love it?
757
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:50,638
It's beautiful, sweetie.
758
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:53,549
Dad! Where's Dad?
759
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:54,950
Dad.
760
00:38:55,240 --> 00:38:58,710
Oh, hi, Abe. You better get out there.
Oil's leaking from the rear main seal.
761
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,519
We just blew a head gasket.
The whole thing's falling apart.
762
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:04,996
All right!
What's going on? I leave for one minute...
763
00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:06,036
Where's Eddie?
764
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:08,115
Eddie!
765
00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:10,550
What is it?
766
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:12,517
It's just what we expected.
767
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:17,197
- What the hell?
- What the hell was that?
768
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:19,959
Are you okay?
769
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:21,959
Are you all right? Huh?
770
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:22,916
You okay'?
771
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:23,956
I could've gotten killed.
772
00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:25,360
Totaled the suspension.
773
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:26,589
You're all right. All right.
774
00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:29,798
With all that weight, I should've...
Where's Dutch? Dutch.
775
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:33,680
We need four new arms
machined from solid stock.
776
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:35,558
- Can you do it?
- No sweat.
777
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:39,756
What the hell is happening to you?
778
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:43,471
That kid Alex came this close to getting
his brains splattered all over this floor.
779
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:44,755
You don't even notice.
780
00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:47,151
For what? That pile of junk?
781
00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:49,590
That's all it is... a pile ofjunk.
782
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:05,760
Listen to me. Are you listening to me?
Carefully?
783
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:08,549
Now, we are going to build that car,
the one we dreamed of,
784
00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:10,392
exactly the way we want it.
785
00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:17,234
Do you believe me?
786
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:23,998
Are you feeling better?
That's what I came down here for.
787
00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:25,753
- To cheer you up.
- I'm fine, I'm fine.
788
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:26,875
Are you cheerful?
789
00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:28,109
I'm plenty cheerful.
790
00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:30,309
Too cheerful.
791
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:37,319
You think that's cheerful?
Watching a middle-aged man lose his mind?
792
00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:39,118
You know what's even more cheerful?
793
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:41,794
Having ringside seats
at your own crucifixion, which...
794
00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:43,314
I might have in Chicago.
795
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:04,275
How's it going?
796
00:41:05,240 --> 00:41:07,516
This is Frank the press agent.
797
00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:10,991
Abe. He thinks “Frank the press agent"
is one word.
798
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:12,640
Frank. Please.
799
00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:15,629
These are the security guards?
800
00:41:15,720 --> 00:41:17,313
Two dozen. Three shifts around the clock.
801
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:19,960
Nobody, absolutely nobody,
gets near this car. You told them that?
802
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:21,195
I told them.
803
00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:23,714
Oh! Frank.
804
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:26,640
Naughty, naughty-
805
00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:30,638
- No, no. Down, down. Stan.
- Now, move that.
806
00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,276
This is Stan.
He's making a promotional film about you.
807
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:36,998
- Nice to meet you.
- A pleasure.
808
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:39,751
It's a puff kind of a promo film.
809
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:42,434
Sales meetings, dealerships,
that kind of thing.
810
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:46,709
Tucker, if you have any family albums,
snapshots...
811
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:47,915
Home movies?
812
00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:49,800
You just shut up.
813
00:41:50,240 --> 00:41:52,390
Snapshots, home movies,
anything like that we could use.
814
00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:53,515
What's the point?
815
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:54,590
Selling stock.
816
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:56,239
I'm not selling stock in my family.
817
00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:59,676
We're not just selling cars either.
We're selling you. An image.
818
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:01,558
- Which includes your family.
- Tucker.
819
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:04,234
Who do you think got that newsreel thing
of you in the White House?
820
00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:06,038
You think the President woke up
at night yelling,
821
00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:09,670
"Get me Tucker!"? Come on!
You can't buy that kind of publicity.
822
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:10,830
You did.
823
00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:12,999
Yeah. For money.
824
00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:14,470
Sure.
825
00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,992
Nothing you say makes any sense.
How come I always know what you mean?
826
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:21,276
Because you talk worse than me
the same language.
827
00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:23,630
Mr. Tucker.
828
00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:26,520
I wanna get some shots of you
looking up at the sign.
829
00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:27,556
Dignified,
830
00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:28,914
serious,
831
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:30,035
confident,
832
00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:32,077
a regular captain of industry.
833
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:41,118
Broadcasting live
from the Tucker auto plant.
834
00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:44,431
The largest parking lot in the world,
completely filled.
835
00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:46,318
People coming here from everywhere.
836
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,279
They're here from Washington, D.C.,
New York.
837
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:51,397
These people are here with their families,
838
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:54,313
all looking very excited
about seeing the innovations
839
00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:57,631
they've heard so much about
in the Tucker automobile.
840
00:42:57,760 --> 00:42:59,512
There were 300 people invited,
841
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:01,910
and over 1,000 have shown up.
842
00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:16,674
Since the age of 13,
when he was office boy
843
00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:18,433
for the Vice President of Cadillac,
844
00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:20,397
Preston Tucker has been identified...
845
00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:21,675
Noble, you sit here.
846
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:25,279
What did you get me into?
847
00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:27,476
The biggest day in automotive history,
my friend.
848
00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:29,995
What's going on here?
I didn't expect anything like this.
849
00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:32,037
Wait till you see. Wait till you see.
850
00:43:34,160 --> 00:43:35,594
Okay, push it.
851
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:39,957
How much longer?
We're an hour late already.
852
00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:41,713
The damn wheels are locked.
853
00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:45,273
Come on. Let's try rocking it.
854
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:46,431
Come on, Jimmy.
855
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:48,671
Rock it!
856
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:51,874
All right. Try the other way.
Rock it, now.
857
00:43:53,720 --> 00:43:55,074
Come on. Rock it.
858
00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:57,592
Nah, Junior, you got to go underneath.
859
00:43:57,680 --> 00:43:58,670
Eddie, get that socket.
860
00:43:58,760 --> 00:43:59,989
- Eddie!
- Here.
861
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:02,917
Having a little trouble back there,
seems like.
862
00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:04,873
Been up all night, poor bastards,
863
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,076
trying to hold that pile of junk together.
864
00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:10,549
- It won't even back up. No kidding.
- No?
865
00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:11,755
No reverse.
866
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:14,032
Okay, jack it up! Get in.
867
00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:18,157
Say, how would you like to help me out?
868
00:44:18,240 --> 00:44:19,435
Let me know what goes on.
869
00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:24,196
We want the car!
We want the car!
870
00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:25,679
- Let's go!
- Come on!
871
00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:27,155
Abe, what the hell is going on?
872
00:44:27,240 --> 00:44:29,197
I don't know, but the board of directors
is getting impatient.
873
00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:35,554
Senator Ferguson.
874
00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:39,311
Preston, get this thing started now!
875
00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:41,471
Get out there. Do something.
Stall. Anything.
876
00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:42,994
Bennington is going crazy.
877
00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:45,993
Eddie! Signal me when you're ready
from that corner.
878
00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:47,440
- That corner?
- Yeah.
879
00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:49,558
We gotta take out some weight!
880
00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:00,678
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen.
881
00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:02,559
I'm Preston Tucker.
882
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:04,394
I'm sorry for the delay.
883
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:07,199
Perhaps this will perk you up.
The Tuckerettes!
884
00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:08,994
What are Tuckerettes?
885
00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:10,115
They're girls.
886
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:11,396
Girls!
887
00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:20,592
The back tires can't move
with all that weight on the rear wheels.
888
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:21,990
Junior?
889
00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:25,193
Try this for a brace.
890
00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:33,437
Let's hear it for the Tuckerettes!
891
00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:37,756
Okay, Junior. Tell your dad. Let's go.
892
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:38,711
We're set!
893
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:41,237
Aren't they lovely creatures?
894
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:43,870
Dad!
895
00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:45,917
Back here! Back here!
896
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:48,238
Dad, we got it. We're set.
897
00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:52,039
And now, ladies and gentlemen,
898
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:54,960
the history-making moment
you've all been waiting for.
899
00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:58,875
Okay, come on.
Let's push, guys. Come on!
900
00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:01,790
Hold it, Eddie! We got a leak again.
901
00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:04,872
Tell your dad to hold it. We got a leak.
Tell him to hold it.
902
00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:09,315
Dad! Dad! Dad, hold it! Hold it.
Stop. Hold it.
903
00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:15,193
But first, you don't mind
if I introduce my family, do you?
904
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:18,919
My lovely wife, Vera.
905
00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:23,957
My daughter, Marilyn Lee.
906
00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:25,954
Isn't she lovely?
907
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:28,592
Junior, get the soldering iron.
908
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:31,794
My eldest son is backstage.
909
00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:32,995
Asleep in the car?
910
00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:36,832
Ladies and gentlemen,
the oar everyone calls the Tucker...
911
00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:38,319
All right, let's go.
912
00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:39,396
But first...
913
00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:41,752
Dad! Dad!
914
00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:42,875
We're set.
915
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:44,871
Does anybody want to see the car?
916
00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:49,959
Hold it! We got a fire!
917
00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:52,799
Get the fire extinguishers.
918
00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:56,835
But first...
919
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:01,950
I'd like to show you
the car's many features.
920
00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:06,790
Ladies, the Detroit-mobile.
921
00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:08,749
You're standing on my foot.
922
00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:11,354
You're on my foot. Don't stop the fire!
923
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:14,671
Because of the revolutionary
Tucker rear engine...
924
00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:18,594
Stop. There's no more fire there.
925
00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:20,830
What took you so long?
Were you playing checkers?
926
00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:23,958
Drive your Tucker to the dumbest mechanic
anywhere in the world,
927
00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:27,795
and he will be able to remove
the whole engine in one piece
928
00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:29,917
and replace it within 2O minutes.
929
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:33,311
That's out!
Didn't you tell him we're not doing that?
930
00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:34,909
What's he saying that for?
931
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:36,673
Let's hear it for the Tuckerettes.
932
00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:39,070
Come on!
933
00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:40,356
Boo!
934
00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:43,353
We want the car!
We want the car!
935
00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:44,669
Come on, Tucker.
936
00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:47,274
- We want the car!
- Bring us the oar!
937
00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:58,396
...that dreams can come true.
938
00:47:58,520 --> 00:47:59,840
Ladies and gentlemen,
939
00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:03,076
don't let a Tucker pass you by.
940
00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:07,475
Ladies...
941
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:43,676
Whoa.
942
00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:45,159
That's pretty good.
943
00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:53,320
Get up here. Come on. Sweetie.
944
00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:55,470
Come on!
945
00:49:18,720 --> 00:49:20,677
And now, ladies and gentlemen,
946
00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:22,080
my love,
947
00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:24,240
my inspiration,
948
00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:25,355
my wife...
949
00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:27,435
Vera.
950
00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:31,675
Yeah! Yeah!
951
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:43,749
I usually don't take a bath till Saturday.
952
00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:34,474
We are pleased to say
this newly christened car
953
00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:36,597
gets over 20 miles per gallon,
954
00:50:36,720 --> 00:50:39,280
is capable of 130 miles per hour,
955
00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:41,795
and hasn't even been opened up yet.
956
00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:44,838
The car features seat belts, a rear motor,
957
00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:47,912
has a safety chamber,
and has a sponge-rubber crash panel.
958
00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:49,430
Buy a Tucker.
959
00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:51,989
Don't let the future pass you by.
960
00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:58,679
This man Tucker is a loose cannon.
961
00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:01,957
He just doesn't understand
how a corporation runs.
962
00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:03,951
He's not much of an engineer either.
963
00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:05,150
Yeah, you're right.
964
00:51:05,640 --> 00:51:08,200
If we don't watch out,
we'll never build those cars in time.
965
00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:11,352
Listen, he needs to get exposure
in the paper.
966
00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:15,195
Why don't we let him go off
on a nice long publicity tour?
967
00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:17,715
- Not a bad idea.
- I like it.
968
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:27,550
All right.
969
00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:54,872
Preston, I'd like you to meet Mrs. Mellon.
970
00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:56,394
- Preston Tucker.
- Mrs. Mellon.
971
00:52:09,560 --> 00:52:10,959
Mr. Preston Tucker,
972
00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:12,758
the key to our fair city
973
00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:14,554
and this beautiful plaque
974
00:52:14,640 --> 00:52:16,199
to commemorate your achievements.
975
00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:17,435
Thank you.
976
00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:47,954
The Tuckers are here.
977
00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:54,435
Sir.
978
00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:55,510
Wow.
979
00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:56,715
This is it. Chicago.
980
00:52:56,800 --> 00:52:59,394
This has got to be 100 stories high.
981
00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:02,629
This way, ma'am.
982
00:53:06,320 --> 00:53:08,789
Well, how do you like it, huh?
983
00:53:11,080 --> 00:53:13,310
- Holy mackerel!
- I got a real buy on it.
984
00:53:13,680 --> 00:53:15,034
- Hello, Millie!
- Hi! How are you?
985
00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:16,269
How are you, darling?
986
00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:17,909
Hi, Millie.
987
00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:20,478
In here, the kitchen.
988
00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:22,632
You got an elevator goes up and down.
989
00:53:23,720 --> 00:53:26,234
Strap-work ceilings. Beautiful.
990
00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:30,113
That's why I got it so cheap,
991
00:53:30,200 --> 00:53:31,634
from a vaudeville family.
992
00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:35,152
Very wealthy, but...
993
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:36,796
midgets.
994
00:53:43,280 --> 00:53:45,669
- I want to buy a steel plant.
- Steel?
995
00:53:46,720 --> 00:53:47,994
We need one.
996
00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:53,238
I'll check with Beasley over at War Assets
and see if we can't find another plant.
997
00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:55,231
How you gonna do that? How do you get one'?
998
00:53:56,080 --> 00:53:57,718
Well, they go to the highest bidder.
999
00:53:57,800 --> 00:53:58,790
May I?
1000
00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:03,354
That's a hell of a lighter.
1001
00:54:12,320 --> 00:54:14,277
Here are the new specs
from Mr. Bennington.
1002
00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:16,715
Sixty-four inches high
instead of 56.
1003
00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:17,756
And the wheel track--
1004
00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:19,638
Wait a second. Who are you exactly?
1005
00:54:19,720 --> 00:54:21,233
I'm from Engineering upstairs.
1006
00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:24,154
Take a look at what we've done up there.
1007
00:54:24,280 --> 00:54:25,509
Goddamn it!
1008
00:54:25,920 --> 00:54:26,876
Damn it!
1009
00:54:26,960 --> 00:54:28,359
Hey, what's the matter?
1010
00:54:28,960 --> 00:54:30,359
Hey, this is better.
1011
00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:34,398
The engine definitely can't go
in the rear. We can't do it.
1012
00:54:34,760 --> 00:54:36,273
No rear engine?
1013
00:54:37,760 --> 00:54:38,795
No rear engine?
1014
00:54:38,920 --> 00:54:40,354
We can't get it to work.
1015
00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:42,354
No rear engine!
1016
00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:45,754
We represent Mr. Tucker.
This is very important.
1017
00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:49,310
I'm sorry. You can't see him. He went out.
1018
00:54:56,360 --> 00:54:59,876
Next time Bennington goes out, you should
tell him to take his body with him.
1019
00:55:08,640 --> 00:55:10,517
I'm not so sure that we are appropriate--
1020
00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:12,159
Mrs. Tucker.
1021
00:55:12,240 --> 00:55:14,277
Well, well...
1022
00:55:14,600 --> 00:55:16,193
what a nice surprise.
1023
00:55:16,720 --> 00:55:17,835
I'm...
1024
00:55:17,960 --> 00:55:19,951
I'm really delighted to see you.
1025
00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:22,073
But...
1026
00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:25,073
would you be good enough
to give my wife a call?
1027
00:55:25,160 --> 00:55:28,118
Mrs. Bennington has complete charge
of our social visits.
1028
00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:30,589
There's nothing social about this visit.
1029
00:55:31,240 --> 00:55:33,993
Sit down, gentlemen.
We can skip the minuet.
1030
00:55:39,240 --> 00:55:40,594
What is this?
1031
00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:45,869
And this? And this?
And this is ridiculous.
1032
00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:50,950
I admire this very much
1033
00:55:51,040 --> 00:55:52,872
when the little woman
takes a keen interest
1034
00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:54,712
in her husband's business affairs.
1035
00:55:56,200 --> 00:55:58,794
Why did you change the design
of my husband's car'?
1036
00:55:59,840 --> 00:56:01,069
And the colors.
1037
00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:04,875
You know, waltz blue happened to come from
the color of one of my dresses.
1038
00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:10,349
Mrs. Tucker, your husband's fantasy
of a rear-engine car,
1039
00:56:10,440 --> 00:56:13,671
well, it just doesn't work, that's all.
1040
00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:16,434
I'm afraid there's very little likelihood
it'll ever work.
1041
00:56:16,560 --> 00:56:18,358
I'm really sorry about that.
1042
00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:19,396
What about this?
1043
00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:22,353
Preston promised the public that his oar
would sell for $1 ,000.
1044
00:56:22,480 --> 00:56:25,518
In this memo from you to the sales
department, you've doubled the price.
1045
00:56:27,360 --> 00:56:31,797
My wife and I would be delighted to have
you as our guest for dinner some evening.
1046
00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:33,951
I'll buy my own dinner, Benny.
1047
00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:36,630
Answer the question. Why?
1048
00:56:38,480 --> 00:56:39,470
Steel.
1049
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:41,991
We just can't get any of it.
1050
00:56:42,720 --> 00:56:46,031
It's costing us
twice as much as the Big Three.
1051
00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:50,752
Really, Mrs. Tucker,
I don't mean to be rude,
1052
00:56:50,840 --> 00:56:54,356
but were in the middle
of a rather crucial meeting here.
1053
00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:08,159
When you're riding in a Tucker
1054
00:57:09,480 --> 00:57:11,073
When you're riding in a Tucker
1055
00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:14,198
When you're riding in a Tucker
1056
00:57:15,480 --> 00:57:18,791
The car of tomorrow
The oar of tomorrow
1057
00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:20,439
Today
1058
00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:22,318
The car of tomorrow
1059
00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:24,437
Today
1060
00:57:30,080 --> 00:57:32,276
Hi, folks. I'm Preston Tucker.
1061
00:57:32,360 --> 00:57:34,112
It's not polite to blow your own horn--
1062
00:57:36,040 --> 00:57:38,190
So I'll let the soundman do it for me.
1063
00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:43,715
But seriously...
1064
00:57:44,480 --> 00:57:45,834
- W ho wrote this?
- Okay, out.
1065
00:57:45,920 --> 00:57:47,513
I'll think of my own stuff to say.
1066
00:57:47,600 --> 00:57:49,113
Call for Mr. Tucker.
1067
00:57:49,800 --> 00:57:50,756
I'll call them back.
1068
00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:52,877
It's your wife. She says it's important.
1069
00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:53,995
All right.
1070
00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:56,873
We can do better than this, fellas.
1071
00:57:58,560 --> 00:57:59,470
- Hey, doll.
- Honey.
1072
00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:01,358
You better get back here right away.
1073
00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:03,556
Dad, Benningt0n's changed the designs
1074
00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:05,551
to a standard V-8 front-mounted engine.
1075
00:58:05,640 --> 00:58:07,153
He's changed
the whole body and everything.
1076
00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:10,232
Junior, don't worry. It's all right.
1077
00:58:10,320 --> 00:58:12,436
Alex told me that if Bennington
keeps tooling up
1078
00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:14,431
for his 1940 Plymouth version
he's gonna build,
1079
00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:16,670
it'll cost millions for us
to retool for our car.
1080
00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:19,229
Junior, the only thing that matters now
is selling stock.
1081
00:58:19,320 --> 00:58:22,278
If we don't, there's not gonna be
any car to ruin. Forget about Bennington.
1082
00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:23,630
The minute I get home,
1083
00:58:23,720 --> 00:58:25,393
H! send him back to the mortuary
with the rest of the undertakers.
1084
00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:26,555
One more thing.
1085
00:58:26,640 --> 00:58:29,678
Bennington says to double the price
you advertise the car would sell for
1086
00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:31,717
because we're being charged
twice as much for steel.
1087
00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:33,393
Will you turn that down!
1088
00:58:33,480 --> 00:58:36,552
And, Preston, no waltz blue.
1089
00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:37,516
What?
1090
00:58:37,600 --> 00:58:38,476
Our color.
1091
00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:42,637
Doll, I'm on my Way back.
1092
00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:43,630
All right.
1093
00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:48,193
The rear engine is out.
1094
00:58:48,280 --> 00:58:51,989
Your own engineers admit
that 589 engine is a failure.
1095
00:58:52,080 --> 00:58:54,276
The chair will recognize
no further discussion on that matter.
1096
00:58:54,360 --> 00:58:57,273
The chair? Who made him the chair?
1097
00:58:57,720 --> 00:58:59,438
Also denied
1098
00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:01,830
and eliminated from any further discussion
1099
00:59:01,920 --> 00:59:03,558
are disc brakes,
1100
00:59:03,640 --> 00:59:05,233
fuel injection,
1101
00:59:05,320 --> 00:59:07,834
hydraulic valve lifters,
1102
00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:08,796
seat belts--
1103
00:59:08,880 --> 00:59:09,711
Seat belts?
1104
00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:11,240
How can you object to seat belts?
1105
00:59:11,360 --> 00:59:14,193
Our marketing department says
they imply the cars are unsafe.
1106
00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:16,233
People are unsafe.
1107
00:59:16,320 --> 00:59:18,550
Bennington, if one person
is killed in a Tucker
1108
00:59:18,640 --> 00:59:21,712
because of some safety feature
you eliminated, I swear to God...
1109
00:59:21,800 --> 00:59:24,189
- May I remind you...
- I'm gonna drag you by the teeth...
1110
00:59:24,280 --> 00:59:26,920
...you have no voice
in matters of policy here.
1111
00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:29,236
I'm in complete charge of this company.
1112
00:59:29,720 --> 00:59:31,313
What company'? My Company?
1113
00:59:32,600 --> 00:59:36,878
I think you'll find it stated
unequivocally in my contract.
1114
00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:45,350
Is that true?
1115
00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:50,634
We needed his name to sell the stock.
You knew that.
1116
00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:55,752
We needed a man with experience
to run things, but...
1117
00:59:57,400 --> 00:59:59,550
Tucker, I give you my word,
I swear to God,
1118
01:00:00,360 --> 01:00:02,556
I didn't know that was in his contract.
1119
01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:09,393
You can't have Falstaff
and have him thin, Mr. Tucker.
1120
01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:12,269
What does that mean?
1121
01:00:13,200 --> 01:00:14,156
Well...
1122
01:00:15,240 --> 01:00:18,756
little boats should be kept
near the shore.
1123
01:00:18,840 --> 01:00:20,558
He talks like a fortune cookie.
1124
01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:22,513
This is my company, Bennington.
1125
01:00:22,920 --> 01:00:25,799
That means seat belts, disc brakes,
1126
01:00:25,880 --> 01:00:28,030
fuel injection, and a rear engine.
1127
01:00:28,520 --> 01:00:30,750
We'll see about that, Mr. Tucker.
1128
01:00:37,920 --> 01:00:40,355
That son of a bitch
is not gonna take over my company!
1129
01:00:40,440 --> 01:00:41,510
Daddy.
1130
01:00:41,800 --> 01:00:43,552
- Just take it easy.
- Forgive me, sweetie.
1131
01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:46,190
Hello.
1132
01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:48,030
Hold on.
1133
01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:50,397
Dad, ifs for you.
1134
01:00:52,120 --> 01:00:54,031
He says he's Howard Hughes.
1135
01:00:55,440 --> 01:00:56,555
Hello.
1136
01:00:57,400 --> 01:00:58,720
Is this some kind of--
1137
01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:04,595
I'll be right there.
1138
01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:11,029
Well, I'll be.
1139
01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:26,350
Hi.
1140
01:02:27,160 --> 01:02:28,275
Howard Hughes.
1141
01:02:30,280 --> 01:02:31,839
What do you think of it, kid?
1142
01:02:33,160 --> 01:02:34,355
It's big.
1143
01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:37,000
That's what they tell me.
1144
01:02:37,880 --> 01:02:39,917
Here, do you like pistachio nuts?
1145
01:02:42,080 --> 01:02:43,354
Lawyers.
1146
01:02:44,760 --> 01:02:47,878
All they can think about is
whether it will fly or not.
1147
01:02:48,680 --> 01:02:50,557
Who cares whether it flies?
1148
01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:52,313
That's not the point.
1149
01:02:53,520 --> 01:02:54,874
And...
1150
01:02:55,000 --> 01:02:56,798
Spruce Goose.
1151
01:02:56,880 --> 01:02:58,393
Now, why do they call it that?
1152
01:02:58,480 --> 01:03:00,232
Does that seem funny to you?
1153
01:03:00,760 --> 01:03:02,114
I can't tell anymore.
1154
01:03:04,360 --> 01:03:05,555
People.
1155
01:03:06,880 --> 01:03:08,518
Did I change, or...
1156
01:03:08,960 --> 01:03:11,110
did the cosmic sense of humor?
1157
01:03:12,360 --> 01:03:14,192
I used to laugh when they did.
1158
01:03:16,760 --> 01:03:17,875
This...
1159
01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:20,314
prick...
1160
01:03:20,600 --> 01:03:22,034
Homer Ferguson.
1161
01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:24,874
He's after me, too.
1162
01:03:24,960 --> 01:03:27,918
Subpoenaed me
for a congressional investigation...
1163
01:03:29,840 --> 01:03:31,717
which either I show up for,
1164
01:03:32,120 --> 01:03:33,349
in person,
1165
01:03:34,280 --> 01:03:35,793
or he's going to send me to jail.
1166
01:03:39,920 --> 01:03:41,274
I'm already in jail.
1167
01:03:49,200 --> 01:03:50,076
Steel.
1168
01:03:51,200 --> 01:03:52,998
That's what I called you about.
1169
01:03:53,680 --> 01:03:55,751
There's a helicopter plant
1170
01:03:56,320 --> 01:03:58,311
in Syracuse,
1171
01:03:58,400 --> 01:04:01,995
called the Air-Cooled Motor Company.
1172
01:04:02,800 --> 01:04:06,395
And they're not connected
to any government agency, so...
1173
01:04:08,680 --> 01:04:11,479
the politicians can't screw you out of it.
1174
01:04:14,280 --> 01:04:18,877
Well, this helicopter company
has all the steel you need.
1175
01:04:19,840 --> 01:04:22,559
And they're on their ass
financially, so...
1176
01:04:23,200 --> 01:04:24,713
if you hurry up,
1177
01:04:25,880 --> 01:04:27,439
they're ready to deal.
1178
01:04:28,840 --> 01:04:29,875
And they...
1179
01:04:30,240 --> 01:04:33,198
they make a really fine aluminum engine.
1180
01:04:34,720 --> 01:04:36,119
But listen, now.
1181
01:04:37,080 --> 01:04:39,640
For God's sake, now, you don't--
1182
01:04:46,240 --> 01:04:47,355
I wonder...
1183
01:04:49,520 --> 01:04:51,796
I wonder how they get the blood off.
1184
01:05:03,280 --> 01:05:04,634
Well, what do you think, Jimmy?
1185
01:05:05,320 --> 01:05:07,038
It's a helicopter engine.
1186
01:05:07,120 --> 01:05:10,112
It needs to be converted
from air-cooled to water.
1187
01:05:11,080 --> 01:05:13,390
But as a starting point, maybe.
1188
01:05:13,800 --> 01:05:15,791
It's small, which is good. Simple.
1189
01:05:15,880 --> 01:05:18,349
Take it apart, Eddie.
I'll work on the drawings.
1190
01:05:18,440 --> 01:05:20,158
Oh, time. Time.
1191
01:05:20,240 --> 01:05:22,277
Fighting Bennington in court
would take years.
1192
01:05:22,360 --> 01:05:25,034
Meanwhile, he's retooling his car
as fast as he can.
1193
01:05:25,480 --> 01:05:28,313
The only way to build this engine
is to do it right here in the barn,
1194
01:05:28,400 --> 01:05:29,595
out of Bennington's sight.
1195
01:05:29,680 --> 01:05:31,432
The Senate War Investigating Committee,
1196
01:05:31,520 --> 01:05:33,113
headed by Senator Homer Ferguson,
1197
01:05:33,240 --> 01:05:35,595
has subpoenaed aircraft designer
Howard Hughes.
1198
01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:37,598
The committee will investigate charges...
1199
01:05:37,680 --> 01:05:39,159
We need a new cam shaft.
1200
01:05:41,480 --> 01:05:44,074
Intake manifolds going to have
to be reworked.
1201
01:05:44,560 --> 01:05:48,952
Excuse me, but in a helicopter,
doesn't the engine stand straight up?
1202
01:05:49,040 --> 01:05:52,271
If we lay ours sideways,
we're gonna need an oil pan down there.
1203
01:05:55,880 --> 01:05:57,439
Okay, whatever we do
1204
01:05:57,520 --> 01:05:59,750
has got to fit
into the Franklin assembly line.
1205
01:06:00,320 --> 01:06:01,435
That's it, gentlemen.
1206
01:06:08,600 --> 01:06:10,591
Hey, come on! Eddie, come on.
1207
01:06:10,680 --> 01:06:12,956
We only got till tomorrow
to get this thing together.
1208
01:06:15,080 --> 01:06:16,309
Click it over.
1209
01:06:19,920 --> 01:06:21,319
Get another battery.
1210
01:06:35,360 --> 01:06:36,430
Hey. hey!
1211
01:06:37,560 --> 01:06:38,470
Got it!
1212
01:06:42,960 --> 01:06:44,030
Go ahead! Go ahead!
1213
01:06:44,120 --> 01:06:45,235
There he goes!
1214
01:06:47,320 --> 01:06:50,711
Just like a swan.
I want it smooth like a swan on the--
1215
01:06:50,800 --> 01:06:52,473
Get out of here!
What's the matter with you?
1216
01:06:52,560 --> 01:06:53,914
You're in the shot! Get out!
1217
01:06:57,640 --> 01:06:58,596
Go, Eddie!
1218
01:07:02,120 --> 01:07:03,599
Sounds mighty nice.
1219
01:07:03,960 --> 01:07:05,598
- Hey, Eddie!
- Yeah?
1220
01:07:06,040 --> 01:07:07,633
We can drive in relays.
1221
01:07:07,720 --> 01:07:10,234
Twenty-four hours without a stop
and push her!
1222
01:07:10,600 --> 01:07:11,874
Push her to the limit!
1223
01:07:14,400 --> 01:07:15,276
Go!
1224
01:07:19,720 --> 01:07:21,074
I hope it holds up.
1225
01:07:24,480 --> 01:07:25,550
Good. Good.
1226
01:07:44,440 --> 01:07:45,350
It's neat.
1227
01:07:45,440 --> 01:07:46,760
- Enjoying?
- Yeah.
1228
01:07:49,160 --> 01:07:50,434
What do we got now?
1229
01:07:52,360 --> 01:07:53,634
Seventeen and a half hours.
1230
01:07:55,600 --> 01:07:56,635
To go?
1231
01:08:25,920 --> 01:08:26,955
Goddamn!
1232
01:08:28,160 --> 01:08:29,753
All right, all right. Stay with him.
1233
01:08:53,200 --> 01:08:54,315
Charlie? Homer.
1234
01:08:55,120 --> 01:08:57,714
That son a bitch Tucker
built the damn thing.
1235
01:08:59,080 --> 01:09:00,753
Well, not everything he advertised,
not yet.
1236
01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:03,719
But enough to cost billions
just to keep up with him.
1237
01:09:04,360 --> 01:09:06,590
Don't worry about it now.
I'll take care of him.
1238
01:09:07,440 --> 01:09:08,794
We did it!
1239
01:09:18,680 --> 01:09:19,590
Eddie!
1240
01:09:20,640 --> 01:09:21,869
Oh, my God!
1241
01:09:21,960 --> 01:09:23,189
Hold the camera!
1242
01:09:26,640 --> 01:09:27,471
Eddie!
1243
01:09:28,640 --> 01:09:30,438
Eddie, are you all right?
1244
01:09:30,560 --> 01:09:31,834
Get an ambulance quick!
1245
01:09:31,920 --> 01:09:33,115
All right. Now, watch out.
1246
01:09:34,120 --> 01:09:37,511
Watch it. Hold it up. Watch yourself.
1247
01:09:37,600 --> 01:09:38,670
You okay'?
1248
01:09:41,920 --> 01:09:42,910
Yeah.
1249
01:09:45,040 --> 01:09:47,634
Popped out just like we said.
1250
01:09:49,360 --> 01:09:50,475
Look at that thing.
1251
01:09:50,560 --> 01:09:51,709
I can't believe it.
1252
01:09:53,960 --> 01:09:55,712
I bet you two bucks it still runs.
1253
01:09:57,520 --> 01:09:59,238
Go ahead. Start it up. Let's see.
1254
01:10:05,120 --> 01:10:06,155
Told ya.
1255
01:10:09,200 --> 01:10:10,315
All right!
1256
01:10:12,760 --> 01:10:14,478
It's a hell of a car.
1257
01:10:14,560 --> 01:10:16,915
It's one hell of a damn car!
1258
01:10:18,600 --> 01:10:20,750
That's a hell of a ride there, partner.
1259
01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:22,794
You got it, didn't you?
1260
01:10:22,880 --> 01:10:24,917
We got it. Yeah, we got it!
1261
01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:27,230
No, you look like you didn't get it!
Did you get it?
1262
01:10:27,320 --> 01:10:29,311
- Yeah, we got it.
- I hope so.
1263
01:10:29,400 --> 01:10:30,549
We got it, right?
1264
01:10:30,640 --> 01:10:32,039
We didn't get it.
1265
01:10:35,080 --> 01:10:37,594
Thais right. We're going to go back
to the original drawings.
1266
01:10:37,680 --> 01:10:40,194
Keep everything the same,
the rear engine, etc.
1267
01:10:40,600 --> 01:10:42,159
Except for these numbers:
1268
01:10:43,280 --> 01:10:46,636
- Thirteen--
- Tucker, what is going on here?
1269
01:10:46,760 --> 01:10:50,355
I see you've resumed production
on your rear-engine car.
1270
01:10:50,440 --> 01:10:52,750
May I ask
by whose authority are you doing this?
1271
01:10:52,840 --> 01:10:54,592
According to my lawyer,
1272
01:10:54,680 --> 01:10:56,876
that's the car you signed to make,
that's the car we're making.
1273
01:10:57,240 --> 01:10:59,675
If you think you're going to get away
with this, Tucker, you may be in--
1274
01:10:59,760 --> 01:11:01,910
"Little ships fine," Confucius say.
1275
01:11:02,320 --> 01:11:05,153
"Rowboats long in tooth make big noise,
1276
01:11:05,600 --> 01:11:06,476
go nowhere."
1277
01:11:08,520 --> 01:11:12,070
Mr. Tucker,
you're going to hear from my attorney.
1278
01:11:12,160 --> 01:11:13,355
You can count on that.
1279
01:11:13,840 --> 01:11:15,114
Good morning, sir.
1280
01:11:16,280 --> 01:11:17,759
Nothing can stop us now.
1281
01:11:18,320 --> 01:11:20,311
"You're going to hear from my attorney."
1282
01:11:22,600 --> 01:11:24,477
This beautiful shot of the grill.
1283
01:11:24,560 --> 01:11:26,836
Now watch, you go to the side,
we get this beauty.
1284
01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:28,399
This is the beauty shot of the side.
1285
01:11:28,480 --> 01:11:30,198
Then this attendant.
Wait till you see, he's coming out.
1286
01:11:30,280 --> 01:11:33,477
He was right.
He's much better than that fat guy was.
1287
01:11:34,160 --> 01:11:36,071
Wait till you see this shot.
You won't believe it.
1288
01:11:36,160 --> 01:11:37,480
It's a great one. It's great.
1289
01:11:37,960 --> 01:11:41,191
He puts down the rag, throws it down'
I took out the kicking the tire.
1290
01:11:41,280 --> 01:11:42,429
- I didn't want to do that.
- Oh, no!
1291
01:11:42,520 --> 01:11:44,352
- Why?
- This is the best. Watch.
1292
01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:47,593
Look! Look at his eyes.
1293
01:11:48,680 --> 01:11:49,590
Now watch.
1294
01:11:49,880 --> 01:11:51,393
Here, I don't know. You point.
1295
01:11:51,480 --> 01:11:53,391
I'm thinking of putting a close-up
of your finger.
1296
01:11:53,480 --> 01:11:55,357
I don't know why you left the tire out?
1297
01:11:55,440 --> 01:11:59,274
The finger. You look good.
I don't know if we need the finger.
1298
01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:00,998
Not the finger, but the tire.
1299
01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:04,957
Abe, come here. I want you to see this.
1300
01:12:05,040 --> 01:12:07,077
Stan's promo film.
He just finished it. It's great.
1301
01:12:07,320 --> 01:12:09,277
Come here. Come here.
1302
01:12:12,200 --> 01:12:13,520
All right! All right!
1303
01:12:14,520 --> 01:12:17,319
Turn it off. I'll come back in a minute
and see the end later.
1304
01:12:18,640 --> 01:12:19,516
What?
1305
01:12:20,200 --> 01:12:22,077
Did you like it when he went...
1306
01:12:22,160 --> 01:12:23,150
Yes.
1307
01:12:32,200 --> 01:12:34,271
What's all this cloak and dagger
business now?
1308
01:12:34,360 --> 01:12:35,316
Your office is wired.
1309
01:12:35,800 --> 01:12:38,030
The board room, the whole plant,
even washrooms.
1310
01:12:38,120 --> 01:12:38,916
What?
1311
01:12:39,040 --> 01:12:41,031
Ever since you road-tested the new car,
1312
01:12:41,120 --> 01:12:43,714
40 G-men have been following you
around the clock.
1313
01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:46,834
- What for'?
- You made the car too good.
1314
01:12:47,480 --> 01:12:49,835
That's the whole idea, isn't it?
To build a better mousetrap.
1315
01:12:50,520 --> 01:12:51,840
Not if you're the mouse.
1316
01:12:56,960 --> 01:12:59,839
What are you talking about?
We did it. We won.
1317
01:12:59,920 --> 01:13:02,594
In two weeks, we're gonna have
100 cars come out of this plant a day.
1318
01:13:02,680 --> 01:13:04,796
I just got off the phone with
Frank the press agent.
1319
01:13:04,880 --> 01:13:08,191
In two weeks, you're gonna be
dead and buried by the Big Three.
1320
01:13:19,440 --> 01:13:20,316
Here.
1321
01:13:22,600 --> 01:13:24,193
It's my resignation.
1322
01:13:26,440 --> 01:13:28,670
- Take it.
- You're bailing out, is that it?
1323
01:13:29,360 --> 01:13:30,919
Captains go down with their ships,
1324
01:13:31,880 --> 01:13:33,109
not businessmen.
1325
01:13:34,920 --> 01:13:36,194
Look me in the eye.
1326
01:13:37,320 --> 01:13:40,153
You're too good a salesman, Abe,
not to look a customer in the eyes.
1327
01:13:40,240 --> 01:13:41,514
You think I'm playing games here?
1328
01:13:41,640 --> 01:13:45,474
Yeah! I think you're trying
some double-whammy hustle backwards! Why?
1329
01:13:46,080 --> 01:13:47,354
You gonna make me say it?
1330
01:13:47,640 --> 01:13:49,358
Yeah. Let's start from there.
1331
01:13:57,280 --> 01:13:58,475
Okay-
1332
01:14:02,680 --> 01:14:05,240
I did three years in the pen
for bank fraud.
1333
01:14:08,560 --> 01:14:09,630
So what?
1334
01:14:10,320 --> 01:14:11,993
So they'll use it against you.
1335
01:14:14,440 --> 01:14:17,239
What, you think because of this little
piece of paper, they're not going to?
1336
01:14:17,320 --> 01:14:18,913
Just leave me alone, will you?
1337
01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:23,798
The whole ten years
since I've been in the pen,
1338
01:14:23,880 --> 01:14:26,520
it never bothered me for two seconds
I'm an ex-con.
1339
01:14:27,240 --> 01:14:28,435
Why should it?
1340
01:14:30,040 --> 01:14:30,950
Who cared?
1341
01:14:34,360 --> 01:14:38,877
But for you and Vera
and the kids to know...
1342
01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:42,959
I'm ashamed.
1343
01:14:44,120 --> 01:14:45,554
Abe, come on.
1344
01:14:48,960 --> 01:14:50,280
When I was a little kid,
1345
01:14:50,960 --> 01:14:54,316
maybe five years old in the old country,
my mother used to say to me,
1346
01:14:54,400 --> 01:14:57,438
she'd warn me, she'd say,
"Don't get too close to people.
1347
01:14:58,080 --> 01:14:59,957
You'll catch their dreams."
1348
01:15:01,320 --> 01:15:03,596
Years later,
I realized I misunderstood her.
1349
01:15:03,840 --> 01:15:06,878
"Germs", she said, not "dreams."
"You'll catch their germs."
1350
01:15:11,000 --> 01:15:12,638
I want you to know something, Tucker.
1351
01:15:13,240 --> 01:15:15,675
I went into business with you
for one reason, to make money.
1352
01:15:15,760 --> 01:15:16,955
That's all.
1353
01:15:19,720 --> 01:15:21,119
How was I to know...
1354
01:15:23,400 --> 01:15:26,040
that if I got too close,
I'd catch your dreams?
1355
01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:37,990
Here.
1356
01:15:40,000 --> 01:15:41,479
If you want to know
how they'll finish you off,
1357
01:15:41,560 --> 01:15:43,471
listen to Drew Pearson tomorrow night
on the radio.
1358
01:16:05,640 --> 01:16:07,631
Noble, bring it in!
1359
01:16:07,720 --> 01:16:09,233
Don't yell at him.
1360
01:16:09,320 --> 01:16:11,516
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
This is Drew Pearson.
1361
01:16:11,600 --> 01:16:14,877
The hottest news in Washington today
is about Preston Tucker,
1362
01:16:14,960 --> 01:16:18,794
that promotion-happy self-styled genius
and revolutionary auto maker.
1363
01:16:19,920 --> 01:16:22,309
For several months,
he has been under investigation
1364
01:16:22,400 --> 01:16:24,676
by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
1365
01:16:24,760 --> 01:16:27,036
And now they're ready to blow the lid off
1366
01:16:27,120 --> 01:16:30,795
one of the slickest, most cynical,
multimillion-dollar frauds
1367
01:16:30,880 --> 01:16:33,110
ever perpetrated on the American people.
1368
01:16:33,840 --> 01:16:37,390
Not only does the car have none
of the futuristic features advertised,
1369
01:16:37,480 --> 01:16:39,756
but it was put together, piece by piece,
1370
01:16:39,840 --> 01:16:42,912
from parts found
in city dumps and junkyards.
1371
01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:45,955
Local wags,
who have dubbed it the Tin Goose,
1372
01:16:46,080 --> 01:16:48,276
find it particularly amusing
1373
01:16:48,360 --> 01:16:53,560
that what Mr' Tucker calls
the car of tomorrow can't even back up.
1374
01:16:53,840 --> 01:16:56,309
- Bull!
- Neither can Mr. Tucker at this point.
1375
01:16:56,720 --> 01:17:00,076
Senator Homer Ferguson,
head of the powerful War Surplus Committee
1376
01:17:00,160 --> 01:17:04,950
will spearhead a congressional probe
to find out exactly what happened
1377
01:17:05,040 --> 01:17:07,600
to the $26 million Tucker raised.
1378
01:17:08,120 --> 01:17:12,000
One thing for certain,
he didn't spend it making cars.
1379
01:17:12,720 --> 01:17:15,792
On a lighter note,
the rumor around Capitol Hill this week--
1380
01:17:21,920 --> 01:17:23,274
They can't say that.
1381
01:17:25,320 --> 01:17:26,515
We'll kill 'em.
1382
01:17:27,840 --> 01:17:29,717
Are you going to let them say that, Pop?
1383
01:17:31,680 --> 01:17:34,149
Who do they think they're dealing with
here, some cream puff'?
1384
01:17:37,040 --> 01:17:39,919
They don't know it,
but they just opened Aunt Dora's box.
1385
01:17:45,240 --> 01:17:46,560
We love you, Daddy.
1386
01:17:48,960 --> 01:17:51,349
But it's Pandora's box.
1387
01:17:58,680 --> 01:18:00,114
Oh, no.
1388
01:18:03,160 --> 01:18:04,958
Good morning, Miss Yanpaulski.
1389
01:18:06,200 --> 01:18:07,918
When did they take the files, last night?
1390
01:18:08,400 --> 01:18:10,755
- The SEC?
- Nobody touched anything here.
1391
01:18:10,840 --> 01:18:13,229
I called all the departments the minute
I got in this morning.
1392
01:18:14,560 --> 01:18:16,392
- Get me the editor on the phone.
- Yes, sir.
1393
01:18:21,640 --> 01:18:22,755
Can you believe that?
1394
01:18:25,800 --> 01:18:26,756
Nice day.
1395
01:18:27,240 --> 01:18:28,799
Wait a minute! You come back here!
1396
01:18:28,880 --> 01:18:30,837
You can't go in there!
You have no right to go in there.
1397
01:18:31,080 --> 01:18:32,275
Mr. Tucker, Mr. Tucker.
1398
01:18:32,360 --> 01:18:34,715
We're from the Securities
and Exchange Commission.
1399
01:18:35,320 --> 01:18:38,711
We have a court order
confiscating all files,
1400
01:18:38,800 --> 01:18:41,679
letters, accounting books, memos, all...
1401
01:18:43,200 --> 01:18:46,591
if you simply cooperate with us, we'll get
our work done as quickly as possible.
1402
01:18:46,680 --> 01:18:48,751
That's one hell of a newspaper
you got there, mister.
1403
01:18:48,840 --> 01:18:51,798
It's the only one I ever saw
that prints the news before it happens.
1404
01:18:52,840 --> 01:18:57,152
So, speaking for myself
and the other members of the board,
1405
01:18:57,960 --> 01:19:01,271
we hereby submit our resignations,
effective immediately.
1406
01:19:02,880 --> 01:19:06,032
What about the hundreds of dealers
filing suit against you?
1407
01:19:06,120 --> 01:19:09,556
Any comment on the district attorney
confiscating the assets of the company?
1408
01:19:09,680 --> 01:19:11,159
Ladies and gentlemen, please.
1409
01:19:11,480 --> 01:19:13,312
Address questions to Mr. Bennington.
1410
01:19:13,760 --> 01:19:15,433
How long will the plant stay open?
1411
01:19:16,280 --> 01:19:18,271
The plant is officially closed.
1412
01:20:36,600 --> 01:20:38,432
- Hey, he)'-
- Hey, hey!
1413
01:20:38,560 --> 01:20:39,516
It's Dad!
1414
01:20:39,600 --> 01:20:40,510
Yeah.
1415
01:20:54,720 --> 01:20:56,870
Let's see your driver's license.
1416
01:20:57,640 --> 01:20:59,597
Swell. Where's the girls, huh?
1417
01:21:00,000 --> 01:21:00,831
He comes alone.
1418
01:21:00,960 --> 01:21:01,791
Here, hold that.
1419
01:21:05,440 --> 01:21:07,158
This is a great interior.
1420
01:21:14,840 --> 01:21:16,239
In a week
1421
01:21:16,320 --> 01:21:19,438
all we'd have to do is push a button
and be turning out 100 cars a day.
1422
01:21:20,720 --> 01:21:22,472
Well, tell me something.
1423
01:21:22,920 --> 01:21:26,675
If we got 50 cars ready by June 1,
they can't take the plant away, right?
1424
01:21:26,760 --> 01:21:28,433
Not according to the contract.
1425
01:21:28,520 --> 01:21:30,830
So, how many cars are ready right now?
1426
01:21:30,920 --> 01:21:32,479
- Assembled.
- Forty-seven.
1427
01:21:32,560 --> 01:21:34,039
We only need three more?
1428
01:21:35,360 --> 01:21:36,589
Who's going to do it, though?
1429
01:21:37,160 --> 01:21:39,197
Won't be the first time
we've worked for free.
1430
01:21:39,520 --> 01:21:42,353
We can't assemble three cars
in four weeks? Ha!
1431
01:21:42,440 --> 01:21:46,513
Can anybody in this car look me in the eye
and say we can't do it?
1432
01:21:48,200 --> 01:21:49,190
We can't do it.
1433
01:21:49,280 --> 01:21:50,395
Except you.
1434
01:21:52,200 --> 01:21:53,429
Will you grow a beard?
1435
01:21:55,000 --> 01:21:57,116
- Who's he talking to, me?
- Yeah, you.
1436
01:21:57,200 --> 01:21:59,111
You look old enough
to be a department head.
1437
01:22:11,160 --> 01:22:12,036
Hello.
1438
01:22:12,120 --> 01:22:13,155
Who's this'? You?
1439
01:22:14,240 --> 01:22:15,230
Abe?
1440
01:22:15,320 --> 01:22:16,674
Tucker, don't go home.
1441
01:22:16,760 --> 01:22:19,195
There's two police cars waiting for you.
They're going to arrest you.
1442
01:22:19,680 --> 01:22:21,591
- Don't go home?
- And this you won't believe.
1443
01:22:21,680 --> 01:22:25,435
Outside the police station,
maybe there's 50, a hundred reporters,
1444
01:22:25,520 --> 01:22:27,955
photographers, newsreels even.
1445
01:22:28,640 --> 01:22:30,756
They're going to drag you out
in leg irons.
1446
01:22:31,560 --> 01:22:32,436
You're kidding me.
1447
01:22:32,520 --> 01:22:34,750
Get out of there!
Go someplace they can't find you.
1448
01:22:34,840 --> 01:22:35,716
Go!
1449
01:22:43,240 --> 01:22:46,312
They want headlines!
I'll give them a beaut!
1450
01:22:46,760 --> 01:22:48,273
Dad, what are you doing?
1451
01:22:48,400 --> 01:22:49,629
I'm going home.
1452
01:23:08,360 --> 01:23:10,271
One of you wouldn't happen
to have a light on you, would you?
1453
01:24:14,360 --> 01:24:15,316
Which way did he go?
1454
01:24:15,560 --> 01:24:16,550
I don't know.
1455
01:24:16,640 --> 01:24:17,550
We lost him.
1456
01:24:39,120 --> 01:24:41,555
All right! All right! Back off! Back off!
1457
01:24:42,880 --> 01:24:43,995
Pipe down!
1458
01:24:45,080 --> 01:24:45,956
Quiet!
1459
01:24:47,000 --> 01:24:47,956
Thank you.
1460
01:24:49,120 --> 01:24:51,589
Now, what is going on here?
1461
01:24:51,680 --> 01:24:53,751
Ask these officers about
the 100-mile-an-hour chase
1462
01:24:53,840 --> 01:24:56,514
I just gave them in this poor old
patched together junkyard wreck.
1463
01:24:58,040 --> 01:24:59,519
How about cuffing me, boys?
1464
01:24:59,760 --> 01:25:01,080
Get in there!
1465
01:25:06,320 --> 01:25:09,995
And in the local news,
Preston Tucker goes on trial this morning
1466
01:25:10,080 --> 01:25:12,799
in the same courthouse
where AI Capone was convicted.
1467
01:25:13,080 --> 01:25:16,869
Tucker has been charged with
25 counts of using the mails to defraud,
1468
01:25:16,960 --> 01:25:19,952
five counts of Securities
and Exchange Commission violations,
1469
01:25:20,040 --> 01:25:22,554
and one count of conspiracy to defraud.
1470
01:25:22,640 --> 01:25:25,917
If convicted, Tucker,
who is out on $25,000 bail,
1471
01:25:26,000 --> 01:25:29,789
faces a maximum sentence
of 155 years in prison
1472
01:25:29,880 --> 01:25:31,871
plus a $60,000 fine.
1473
01:25:40,000 --> 01:25:40,990
Be sealed.
1474
01:25:44,240 --> 01:25:49,314
And regarding his revolutionary designs,
we shall prove Mr. Tucker only designed
1475
01:25:49,400 --> 01:25:51,311
an elaborate scheme to defraud.
1476
01:25:51,600 --> 01:25:53,876
All he wanted was the publids money
for nothing,
1477
01:25:54,000 --> 01:25:56,674
and that's exactly
what the public got. Nothing.
1478
01:25:57,760 --> 01:26:02,152
The government has said that
Mr. Tucker's purpose was to con the public
1479
01:26:02,240 --> 01:26:04,550
into believing a great car was coming.
1480
01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:08,959
His real purpose was to lie and get money.
1481
01:26:11,200 --> 01:26:12,679
Are you all right, Mommy?
1482
01:26:13,120 --> 01:26:14,394
It's very hot in here.
1483
01:26:15,760 --> 01:26:18,878
Your father might say it's not the heat,
it's the humility.
1484
01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:23,231
The Tucker Corporation
was started in good faith.
1485
01:26:24,600 --> 01:26:27,797
The defendant
intended to mass produce cars.
1486
01:26:28,520 --> 01:26:32,354
His failure to do so
was caused by a lack of adequate financing
1487
01:26:32,680 --> 01:26:36,230
due to serious outside interference.
1488
01:26:54,080 --> 01:26:58,313
I wouldn't put $7,500 down
on a car dealership
1489
01:26:58,440 --> 01:27:00,716
without a guaranteed supply of cars.
1490
01:27:01,160 --> 01:27:03,674
They were going to put out
1,000 cars a day.
1491
01:27:03,920 --> 01:27:07,356
I run a service station
and sell a few used cars.
1492
01:27:07,440 --> 01:27:09,431
The person who walked into your station
1493
01:27:09,520 --> 01:27:11,955
and sold you that dealership,
do you see him in the courtroom?
1494
01:27:12,560 --> 01:27:13,436
Him.
1495
01:27:13,920 --> 01:27:17,276
Let the record state that the witness
identified Mr. Abe Karatz.
1496
01:27:17,760 --> 01:27:21,754
Did he disclose that he sewed three years
in a federal penitentiary for bank fraud?
1497
01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:24,315
Objection. Guilt by association.
1498
01:27:24,400 --> 01:27:26,073
Overruled.
1499
01:27:27,200 --> 01:27:31,433
Mr. Karatz, is it not true that you were
convicted in June of 1935
1500
01:27:31,520 --> 01:27:33,636
of conspiring to embezzle funds,
1501
01:27:34,000 --> 01:27:36,674
and you served three years of a one
to five-year sentence
1502
01:27:36,760 --> 01:27:38,353
in a federal penitentiary?
1503
01:27:38,880 --> 01:27:39,870
That's true.
1504
01:27:40,720 --> 01:27:42,757
Tell me, as a convicted felon,
1505
01:27:43,360 --> 01:27:46,113
do you expect one person
in this entire courtroom
1506
01:27:46,200 --> 01:27:47,599
to believe what you say?
1507
01:27:55,640 --> 01:27:56,516
One.
1508
01:28:10,680 --> 01:28:15,356
A well-run corporation doesn't waste money
to research innovations,
1509
01:28:15,440 --> 01:28:19,229
unless, of course, keeping up with
the competition demands it.
1510
01:28:20,560 --> 01:28:22,995
Here is a man, Mr. Tucker,
1511
01:28:23,560 --> 01:28:26,837
who had the responsibility
for forming a well-run corporation.
1512
01:28:27,360 --> 01:28:30,034
He has the largest factory in the world,
1513
01:28:30,640 --> 01:28:33,678
containing two foundries,
a dozen tool and die shops,
1514
01:28:33,760 --> 01:28:35,876
every piece of equipment ever made.
1515
01:28:36,240 --> 01:28:40,552
Can you suggest why he would choose
to build his engine in a barn?
1516
01:28:40,640 --> 01:28:41,550
Objection!
1517
01:28:41,640 --> 01:28:43,313
- Which had so little equipment--
Sustained.
1518
01:28:43,400 --> 01:28:45,152
...most of the work had to be done
on a kitchen stove.
1519
01:28:45,240 --> 01:28:48,517
Please confine your remarks
to questioning the witness.
1520
01:28:49,960 --> 01:28:51,837
This whole trial has been
bought and paid for.
1521
01:28:51,920 --> 01:28:53,911
Wrapped up like a Christmas present
Detroit gave itself.
1522
01:28:54,360 --> 01:28:56,351
I'll be lucky to gel
ten or 15 years in jail.
1523
01:28:56,920 --> 01:28:58,991
He hasn't proven anything yet.
1524
01:28:59,080 --> 01:28:59,990
Not legally.
1525
01:29:00,080 --> 01:29:02,515
He has if they think he has.
1526
01:29:14,520 --> 01:29:17,399
I'm an investigating accountant
for the SEC.
1527
01:29:17,480 --> 01:29:19,790
What was the amount
the Tucker Corporation paid
1528
01:29:19,880 --> 01:29:22,520
for the engine and transmission prototype
1529
01:29:22,600 --> 01:29:26,639
which we have established was built
entirely from parts found in junkyards?
1530
01:29:27,360 --> 01:29:30,432
$223,000.
1531
01:29:30,680 --> 01:29:31,590
What?
1532
01:29:31,720 --> 01:29:32,790
That's a lie.
1533
01:29:33,320 --> 01:29:34,799
Who was all of this money paid to?
1534
01:29:35,160 --> 01:29:39,199
Ypsilanti Machine and Tool Company.
1535
01:29:39,800 --> 01:29:41,518
Can you describe their factory?
1536
01:29:42,360 --> 01:29:43,589
What factory?
1537
01:29:43,680 --> 01:29:45,034
It's a barn.
1538
01:29:45,440 --> 01:29:48,751
I can't believe they would go that far
in forging an entire set of books.
1539
01:29:48,840 --> 01:29:51,195
I've got every receipt, invoice,
1540
01:29:51,320 --> 01:29:54,039
check, bank statement.
1541
01:29:54,760 --> 01:29:57,195
Exactly to the penny how much money came
in and what we spent,
1542
01:29:57,280 --> 01:29:59,271
which is nowhere near what they said.
1543
01:29:59,720 --> 01:30:03,839
Why would they do something stupid like
that if they know we can prove it's a lie'?
1544
01:30:03,960 --> 01:30:06,952
People believe what they read in
the papers, even if they don't believe it.
1545
01:30:07,040 --> 01:30:08,269
Which doesn't make any sense, right?
1546
01:30:08,360 --> 01:30:10,237
But if enough headlines say
that I'm a crook,
1547
01:30:10,320 --> 01:30:13,199
well, that's the end of me and the car.
Which is what this is all about, right?
1548
01:30:13,280 --> 01:30:16,875
I'm gonna go home and bring back
every scrap of paper from the files.
1549
01:30:16,960 --> 01:30:20,874
If they make headlines with lies,
we can make bigger headlines with truth.
1550
01:30:39,800 --> 01:30:40,835
I couldn't sleep.
1551
01:30:41,680 --> 01:30:42,715
Good.
1552
01:30:42,800 --> 01:30:44,199
We could use some help.
1553
01:31:05,600 --> 01:31:09,309
And all of the evidence suggests
that Mr. Tucker diverted,
1554
01:31:09,440 --> 01:31:11,590
for his own personal use,
1555
01:31:11,680 --> 01:31:14,354
over a million dollars
of the stockholders' money.
1556
01:31:20,040 --> 01:31:22,475
I have here a copy of The Detroit News
1557
01:31:22,560 --> 01:31:26,474
with a story about the SEC investigation
1558
01:31:26,560 --> 01:31:27,709
of the Tucker Corporation,
1559
01:31:27,800 --> 01:31:30,679
which contains
a number of specific details
1560
01:31:30,760 --> 01:31:34,469
which seem to be verbatim
from the SEC report admitted as evidence.
1561
01:31:34,560 --> 01:31:38,315
Can you tell me how The Detroit News
might have got a hold of this information?
1562
01:31:38,400 --> 01:31:39,879
I have no idea.
1563
01:31:42,680 --> 01:31:47,390
Mr. Blue, I have here a deposition
from one Susan McNamara.
1564
01:31:47,520 --> 01:31:49,750
I believe shes your private secretary,
1565
01:31:49,840 --> 01:31:54,789
in which she states
that she saw you hand a copy of the report
1566
01:31:54,880 --> 01:31:57,633
to the writer of that article
for The Detroit News.
1567
01:31:58,040 --> 01:32:02,034
And furthermore, you instructed her
to supply him with an office
1568
01:32:02,160 --> 01:32:05,278
in a federal building
in which to write that article.
1569
01:32:06,880 --> 01:32:09,474
Now, why, ladies and gentlemen,
would the SEC
1570
01:32:09,560 --> 01:32:14,157
release information about Mr. Tucker,
which may or may not be true,
1571
01:32:14,240 --> 01:32:18,029
when it is against SEC policy to do so?
1572
01:32:18,120 --> 01:32:20,555
Objection. The SEC is not on trial here.
1573
01:32:20,680 --> 01:32:23,035
If the SEC can release information
about Mr. Tucker
1574
01:32:23,120 --> 01:32:24,997
for the purpose of slandering
Mr. Tucker's name,
1575
01:32:25,080 --> 01:32:29,153
then lie about it, like you heard Mr. Blue
do right now, how can we possibly...
1576
01:32:29,240 --> 01:32:32,631
- Mr. Kirby!
-...believe Mr. Tucker stole money.
1577
01:32:32,720 --> 01:32:35,314
Mr. Kirby,
you know that's not permissible.
1578
01:32:36,520 --> 01:32:38,477
Ladies and gentlemen, I remind you
1579
01:32:38,920 --> 01:32:41,753
the statements of the attorneys
are not evidence.
1580
01:32:43,200 --> 01:32:45,476
Mr. Kerner, any further witnesses?
1581
01:32:47,920 --> 01:32:49,240
The prosecution rests.
1582
01:32:54,000 --> 01:32:55,274
Number three!
1583
01:32:55,360 --> 01:32:57,158
And that makes number 50.
1584
01:33:08,160 --> 01:33:09,673
I'm so proud of you.
1585
01:33:11,560 --> 01:33:12,550
Hey!
1586
01:33:12,640 --> 01:33:13,835
We did it!
1587
01:33:14,240 --> 01:33:16,038
A week before the deadline.
1588
01:33:16,720 --> 01:33:18,074
It's a real beauty.
1589
01:33:27,240 --> 01:33:29,356
Tomorrow, ifs our turn at bat.
1590
01:33:29,920 --> 01:33:31,797
We're gonna chop 'em up like cat food.
1591
01:33:32,320 --> 01:33:34,357
We've subpoenaed Ferguson, his wife,
1592
01:33:34,440 --> 01:33:37,159
everybody we need to prove
who started this thing,
1593
01:33:37,240 --> 01:33:38,435
why, and how.
1594
01:33:38,800 --> 01:33:41,872
I want every one of these cars,
all 50 of them,
1595
01:33:41,960 --> 01:33:44,713
lined up in front at the courthouse
tomorrow morning at 8:30.
1596
01:33:47,720 --> 01:33:49,597
Hold that tiger
1597
01:33:50,000 --> 01:33:51,752
Hold that tiger
1598
01:33:52,040 --> 01:33:53,792
Hold that tiger
1599
01:33:55,720 --> 01:33:57,438
Where are they? Where are the cars'?
1600
01:34:03,360 --> 01:34:04,759
We can't wait any longer.
1601
01:34:05,080 --> 01:34:07,276
- Any comment about the news?
- No comment.
1602
01:34:07,360 --> 01:34:08,270
What news?
1603
01:34:08,360 --> 01:34:10,590
Didn't you read the paper? Here.
1604
01:34:20,280 --> 01:34:21,953
"Led by Senator Homer Ferguson,
1605
01:34:22,040 --> 01:34:24,554
a special commission
appointed by President Truman
1606
01:34:24,640 --> 01:34:27,871
ordered the War Assets Administration
to evict the Tucker Corporation
1607
01:34:27,960 --> 01:34:32,033
from the former aircraft factory
and give it to the Lustron Corporation
1608
01:34:32,120 --> 01:34:34,714
for the development of
low-cost prefab housing."
1609
01:34:44,480 --> 01:34:45,675
Hey, Dad!
1610
01:34:56,720 --> 01:34:59,872
Come on! Around the corner!
Around the corner! Come on!
1611
01:35:02,400 --> 01:35:04,391
Come on. Hurry up. Hurry up.
1612
01:35:04,480 --> 01:35:07,233
Around the corner, okay? Hurry up.
1613
01:35:14,320 --> 01:35:16,277
- Hey!
- Hey, hey, hey-
1614
01:35:16,760 --> 01:35:19,115
Wouldn't you know it,
they're digging up every street in town.
1615
01:35:19,200 --> 01:35:20,998
We had to go plumb to China and back.
1616
01:35:23,400 --> 01:35:27,439
I don't get it. This is only the 24th.
I thought we had till the 1st.
1617
01:35:28,560 --> 01:35:30,312
We had till they dropped the other shoe.
1618
01:35:34,200 --> 01:35:35,031
- Forget it.
- It's my choice.
1619
01:35:35,120 --> 01:35:37,077
I won't let you do it.
We've got an airtight defense.
1620
01:35:37,160 --> 01:35:40,755
They had no legal right to take
that plant. They changed the rules--
1621
01:35:40,880 --> 01:35:41,995
Forget the plant.
1622
01:35:42,080 --> 01:35:44,833
The Tucker car is dead.
That's over. That's politics.
1623
01:35:45,240 --> 01:35:48,278
This is a court of law.
I won't let you cut your own throat.
1624
01:35:48,680 --> 01:35:51,115
You don't understand
how powerful the forces are
1625
01:35:51,200 --> 01:35:52,838
that are working against us here.
1626
01:35:53,240 --> 01:35:55,436
Look, I won't let you do it.
1627
01:35:55,840 --> 01:35:56,989
Tucker, look at me.
1628
01:35:57,080 --> 01:35:59,037
Preston, I'm serious.
1629
01:35:59,120 --> 01:36:02,636
If you're not careful, you're going
to spend 20 years of your life in prison.
1630
01:36:02,960 --> 01:36:05,713
We will be developing prefab houses.
1631
01:36:06,000 --> 01:36:07,479
Good to see you, Senator Ferguson.
1632
01:36:08,600 --> 01:36:11,240
These will be for people with low income.
1633
01:36:11,320 --> 01:36:13,152
Well, that's something
I thought I'd never live to see.
1634
01:36:13,240 --> 01:36:15,516
A politician with his hands
in his own pockets.
1635
01:36:30,520 --> 01:36:33,399
The defense has chosen
not to call any witnesses
1636
01:36:33,680 --> 01:36:37,639
because we feel the prosecution
has failed to make its case.
1637
01:36:38,880 --> 01:36:40,712
And in addition, Your Honor,
1638
01:36:41,960 --> 01:36:44,713
the defendant would like
to beg the court's permission
1639
01:36:44,800 --> 01:36:49,431
to make the closing statements himself
in the feeling that perhaps only he
1640
01:36:49,520 --> 01:36:52,353
can put this trial
in its proper perspective.
1641
01:36:54,760 --> 01:36:55,909
No objection.
1642
01:36:59,360 --> 01:37:00,794
Well, permission granted.
1643
01:37:02,040 --> 01:37:07,240
But if anything you say is unacceptable
in a court of law, I'll stop you.
1644
01:37:10,200 --> 01:37:11,429
Thank you, Your Honor.
1645
01:37:11,880 --> 01:37:13,109
Thank you, Senator.
1646
01:37:13,440 --> 01:37:16,193
Tell them
an honest attempt means not guilty.
1647
01:37:18,840 --> 01:37:20,114
The prosecution...
1648
01:37:21,600 --> 01:37:25,514
claims that I never had any intention
at all of building any cars,
1649
01:37:25,600 --> 01:37:27,955
that all I wanted
was to take the money and run.
1650
01:37:29,560 --> 01:37:31,915
If you decide that they're right,
1651
01:37:32,960 --> 01:37:34,189
well, I'm guilty.
1652
01:37:36,320 --> 01:37:37,719
But according to the law,
1653
01:37:38,560 --> 01:37:40,312
if I tried to make the cars,
1654
01:37:40,400 --> 01:37:42,516
even if they weren't any good,
1655
01:37:43,240 --> 01:37:44,992
even if I didn't make any...
1656
01:37:46,560 --> 01:37:49,393
but if you believe that I tried,
1657
01:37:50,880 --> 01:37:52,598
well, then, I'm not guilty.
1658
01:37:52,720 --> 01:37:55,439
It's not against the law, thank God,
to be wrong or stupid,
1659
01:37:55,520 --> 01:37:57,875
which I was both, building that prototype.
1660
01:37:58,360 --> 01:38:02,399
But what nobody has said in this
whole trial is that after the prototype,
1661
01:38:03,720 --> 01:38:05,438
I built the car that I said I would,
1662
01:38:05,520 --> 01:38:09,150
and there are 50 of them, right now,
parked on Adams Street.
1663
01:38:09,240 --> 01:38:12,471
All the judge has to do is to let you walk
down there and take a ride in one of them
1664
01:38:12,560 --> 01:38:14,870
and that's it! The trial's over.
Okay, Your Honor?
1665
01:38:14,960 --> 01:38:17,759
Objection. This is a closing statement.
Evidence is no longer admissible.
1666
01:38:17,840 --> 01:38:18,716
Sustained.
1667
01:38:18,800 --> 01:38:22,634
Would you allow the jury, please,
to just look out the window?
1668
01:38:22,720 --> 01:38:23,994
Objection.
1669
01:38:24,080 --> 01:38:25,957
You can see them from here, Your Honor.
1670
01:38:26,040 --> 01:38:27,030
Will the defendant please--
1671
01:38:27,120 --> 01:38:30,909
This whole thing's about whether
I intended to build the cars or not.
1672
01:38:31,000 --> 01:38:34,072
Will the defendant abstain from
this flagrant misuse of the courtroom!
1673
01:38:34,800 --> 01:38:35,995
Mr. Tucker!
1674
01:38:36,080 --> 01:38:38,230
Bailiffs, restrain the defendant.
1675
01:38:39,000 --> 01:38:40,320
Wha... Why did l..
1676
01:38:40,400 --> 01:38:42,994
Let the man speak! Let the man speak!
1677
01:38:43,080 --> 01:38:44,514
Let's hear the rest of it!
1678
01:38:50,960 --> 01:38:56,433
If this behavior continues, I may have
no choice but to declare this a mistrial.
1679
01:38:57,360 --> 01:39:00,239
I will not tolerate one more outburst
1680
01:39:00,320 --> 01:39:03,915
of any kind
from anybody in this courtroom!
1681
01:39:04,360 --> 01:39:05,236
I'm sorry.
1682
01:39:09,600 --> 01:39:11,830
You have one minute, Mr. Tucker.
1683
01:39:13,920 --> 01:39:15,035
Thank you, Your Honor.
1684
01:39:32,640 --> 01:39:34,711
When I was a boy I used to...
1685
01:39:36,400 --> 01:39:39,472
I used to read all about Edison
and the Wright brothers,
1686
01:39:39,920 --> 01:39:43,117
Mr. Ford... They were my heroes.
1687
01:39:44,880 --> 01:39:46,678
Rags to riches,
that's not just the name of a book,
1688
01:39:46,760 --> 01:39:49,354
that's what this country was all about.
1689
01:39:50,720 --> 01:39:52,836
We invented the free enterprise system
1690
01:39:52,920 --> 01:39:55,639
where anybody, no matter who he was,
1691
01:39:55,760 --> 01:39:58,832
where he came from,
what class he belonged to,
1692
01:39:59,320 --> 01:40:02,790
if he came up with a better idea
about anything,
1693
01:40:04,120 --> 01:40:06,236
there's no limit to how far he could go.
1694
01:40:08,960 --> 01:40:12,510
I grew up a generation too late, I guess,
because now the way the system works,
1695
01:40:12,880 --> 01:40:17,238
the loner, the dreamer, the crackpot
who comes up with some crazy idea
1696
01:40:17,320 --> 01:40:18,719
that everybody laughs at,
1697
01:40:18,800 --> 01:40:21,440
that later turns out
to revolutionize the world,
1698
01:40:21,520 --> 01:40:25,275
he's squashed from above before
he can even get his head out of the water.
1699
01:40:25,360 --> 01:40:28,830
Because the bureaucrats would rather
kill a new idea than let it rock the boat.
1700
01:40:29,080 --> 01:40:30,559
If Benjamin Franklin were alive today,
1701
01:40:30,640 --> 01:40:33,280
he'd be thrown in jail
for sailing a kite without a license.
1702
01:40:34,320 --> 01:40:35,276
It's true.
1703
01:40:36,840 --> 01:40:40,276
We're all puffed up with ourselves now
'cause we invented the bomb.
1704
01:40:41,480 --> 01:40:42,629
Dropped the...
1705
01:40:44,760 --> 01:40:47,434
Beat the daylights out of the Japanese,
the Nazis.
1706
01:40:48,240 --> 01:40:52,518
But if big business closes the door
on the little guy with a new idea,
1707
01:40:52,600 --> 01:40:54,955
we're not only closing the door
on progress
1708
01:40:55,040 --> 01:40:57,680
but we're sabotaging
everything we fought for!
1709
01:40:59,120 --> 01:41:01,509
Everything that the country stands for!
1710
01:41:04,840 --> 01:41:07,514
One day, we're gonna find ourselves
at the bottom of the heap
1711
01:41:07,600 --> 01:41:10,274
instead of king of the hill,
having no idea how we got there,
1712
01:41:10,680 --> 01:41:13,320
buying radios and cars
from our former enemies.
1713
01:41:18,880 --> 01:41:20,473
I don't believe that's going to happen.
1714
01:41:21,360 --> 01:41:22,919
I can't believe it because...
1715
01:41:24,800 --> 01:41:29,590
if I ever stop believing in the plain old
common horse sense of the American people,
1716
01:41:30,720 --> 01:41:32,916
there'd be no way
I could get out of bed in the morning.
1717
01:41:44,440 --> 01:41:45,316
Thank you.
1718
01:41:58,280 --> 01:41:59,634
Why did I let you do that?
1719
01:42:18,760 --> 01:42:19,716
Be sealed.
1720
01:42:25,040 --> 01:42:27,156
Has the jury reached a verdict?
1721
01:42:29,680 --> 01:42:30,954
We have, Your Honor.
1722
01:42:36,840 --> 01:42:39,309
Will the defendant please rise.
1723
01:42:42,880 --> 01:42:45,269
We, the jurors...
1724
01:42:47,000 --> 01:42:48,399
find the defendant...
1725
01:42:49,440 --> 01:42:51,158
Preston Tucker...
1726
01:42:53,960 --> 01:42:54,836
not guilty.
1727
01:43:15,680 --> 01:43:20,390
How about every one of you
take a ride in one of those Tucker cars
1728
01:43:20,480 --> 01:43:21,754
that don't exist?
1729
01:43:36,240 --> 01:43:37,116
Look.
1730
01:43:37,800 --> 01:43:40,110
They love the cars, the people.
1731
01:43:41,880 --> 01:43:43,314
Drives me crazy.
1732
01:43:44,560 --> 01:43:46,631
The Tucker Motor Company is dead.
1733
01:43:47,800 --> 01:43:49,234
They'll never be made.
1734
01:43:49,320 --> 01:43:50,515
We made them.
1735
01:43:50,840 --> 01:43:52,274
Fifty cars.
1736
01:43:54,720 --> 01:43:56,916
Well, what's the difference,
Fifty or 50 million?
1737
01:43:57,040 --> 01:43:58,439
That's only machinery.
1738
01:44:01,360 --> 01:44:03,636
It's the idea that counts, Abe...
1739
01:44:05,440 --> 01:44:06,555
and the dream.
1740
01:45:02,720 --> 01:45:04,757
Hey, what's that? What are you up to now?
1741
01:45:05,000 --> 01:45:08,311
If we could figure a way to make
these kerosene refrigerators cheap enough
1742
01:45:08,400 --> 01:45:10,391
so the poorest people in the world
could afford them.
1743
01:45:10,480 --> 01:45:13,154
Just big enough
for two bottles of milk, see'?
1744
01:45:14,200 --> 01:45:15,270
That's all.
1745
01:45:15,880 --> 01:45:18,110
So the kids
won't have to get rickets, see?
1746
01:45:18,200 --> 01:45:19,429
- Daddy's at it again.
- Here we go.
1747
01:45:19,520 --> 01:45:21,079
Hold that tiger
1748
01:45:21,800 --> 01:45:23,279
Hold that tiger
1749
01:45:23,960 --> 01:45:25,678
Hold that tiger132035
