you're writing another book.
357
00:22:34,928 --> 00:22:37,130
I'll be the first to buy it.
358
00:22:38,630 --> 00:22:41,131
Did you hear Tom Clancy
is getting paid
359
00:22:41,133 --> 00:22:42,166
three million dollars
360
00:22:42,168 --> 00:22:44,401
to write more right-wing
macho bullshit?
361

365

366

to presume they're any good.
367

368

369
00:23:03,188 --> 00:23:05,025
They might be.
370
00:23:06,292 --> 00:23:08,358
Or they might not be.
371
00:23:08,360 --> 00:23:10,130
You know, I could take a look.
372
00:23:11,162 --> 00:23:12,295

three million dollars
378
00:23:23,876 --> 00:23:26,342
to write some more
red-baiting propaganda.
379
00:23:26,344 --> 00:23:29,480
Lee, my morning
has been long enough already.
380
00:23:29,482 --> 00:23:31,282
He's a fraud.
381
00:23:31,284 --> 00:23:32,249
What's your point?
382
00:23:32,251 --> 00:23:34,984
He was drinking sherry
at your party.
383
00:23:34,986 --> 00:23:37,521
No self-respecting writer
would drink sherry.
384
00:23:37,523 --> 00:23:39,089
Oh, Lord, Lee.
385
00:23:39,091 --> 00:23:40,624
I need you to get me
a book advance
386
00:23:40,626 --> 00:23:42,560
on my Fanny Brice book.
387
00:23:42,562 --> 00:23:44,261
I need you to get
ten thousand dollars.
388
00:23:44,263 --> 00:23:47,330
I'm months behind in my rent,
and my cat is sick.
389
00:23:47,332 --> 00:23:49,500
And isn't this the exact
reason that I have an agent?
390
00:23:49,502 --> 00:23:52,270
I can't get you an advance
like that, Lee. I just can't.
391
00:23:52,272 --> 00:23:54,404
Give me one reason
why that cocky shit
392
00:23:54,406 --> 00:23:55,571
gets three million dollars...
393
00:23:55,573 --> 00:23:57,607
and you can't get me
ten thousand?
394
00:23:57,609 --> 00:23:59,009
Are you that bad of an agent?
395
00:23:59,011 --> 00:24:01,211
Toni, could you please
close the door?
396
00:24:01,213 --> 00:24:05,116
Ms. Israel and I have some
sensitive business to discuss.
397
00:24:05,118 --> 00:24:06,684
LEE: Yeah, God forbid
you have to hear
398
00:24:06,686 --> 00:24:09,019
an adult conversation, Toni!
399
00:24:09,021 --> 00:24:10,687
I'll give you three reasons.
400
00:24:10,689 --> 00:24:13,956
Number one,
Tom Clancy is famous.
401
00:24:13,958 --> 00:24:15,959
(SCOFFS)
Here we go!
402
00:24:15,961 --> 00:24:18,628
Yes, you have written a couple
of successful biographies
403
00:24:18,630 --> 00:24:19,796
and you've managed to disappear
404
00:24:19,798 --> 00:24:21,330
behind your subject matter,
405
00:24:21,332 --> 00:24:24,368
but because of that,
nobody knows who you are!
406
00:24:24,370 --> 00:24:26,102
Because I'm doing my job.
407
00:24:26,104 --> 00:24:29,039
Number two, Tom Clancy
does every radio show.
408
00:24:29,041 --> 00:24:32,242
He does Larry King.
He goes to every book signing.
409
00:24:32,244 --> 00:24:33,510
He plays the game.
410
00:24:33,512 --> 00:24:35,545
Meanwhile, you have destroyed
411
00:24:35,547 --> 00:24:37,348
every bridge
I have built for you.
412
00:24:37,350 --> 00:24:40,417
See, that is beside the point.
I am doing good writing!
413
00:24:40,419 --> 00:24:43,954
Number three. Nobody wants
a book about Fanny Brice.
414
00:24:43,956 --> 00:24:48,125
There is nothing new or sexy
about Fanny Brice.
415
00:24:48,127 --> 00:24:50,060
I couldn't get you
a $10 advance
416
00:24:50,062 --> 00:24:52,198
for a book about Fanny Brice.
417
00:24:54,332 --> 00:24:57,504
I had a book on the New York
Times bestseller list.
418
00:24:58,438 --> 00:25:01,908
That has to count
for something.
419
00:25:06,012 --> 00:25:09,080
Lee, I have known you
a long time,
420
00:25:09,082 --> 00:25:12,249
and believe me,
it hurts to say this to you.
421
00:25:12,251 --> 00:25:14,784
Tell me what to do
then, Marjorie.
422
00:25:14,786 --> 00:25:16,821
I have to do something.
423
00:25:16,823 --> 00:25:17,888
I'll take anything.
424
00:25:17,890 --> 00:25:20,090
Magazine pieces,
cracker box copy.
425
00:25:20,092 --> 00:25:24,296
Okay. Okay.
You have two options.
426
00:25:25,598 --> 00:25:27,130
You either become
a nicer person,
427
00:25:27,132 --> 00:25:30,467
you put on a clean shirt,
you stop drinking,
428
00:25:30,469 --> 00:25:32,135
you say "please"
and "thank you."
429
00:25:32,137 --> 00:25:34,705
Oh, God. Give me
a fucking break, please.
430
00:25:34,707 --> 00:25:37,707
Well, clearly that's
not going to happen.
431
00:25:37,709 --> 00:25:39,975
Or you can take
the time to go out
432
00:25:39,977 --> 00:25:42,312
and make a name for yourself.
433
00:25:42,314 --> 00:25:44,715
And then maybe, maybe,
434
00:25:44,717 --> 00:25:47,618
I can get you paid
for your work again.
435
00:25:47,620 --> 00:25:50,786
And how is it that I'm
supposed to do that, Marjorie?
436
00:25:50,788 --> 00:25:52,755
I'm a 51-year-old woman
437
00:25:52,757 --> 00:25:55,159
who likes cats
better than people.
438
00:25:55,893 --> 00:25:58,696
Not exactly hot and sexy,
as you like to say.
439
00:25:58,698 --> 00:26:00,397
Write your book
in your own voice.
440
00:26:00,399 --> 00:26:03,434
Well, you've been threatening
to do it for 10 years.
441
00:26:03,436 --> 00:26:05,269
I'd love to, Marjorie.
442
00:26:05,271 --> 00:26:07,671

I have bills to pay.

I have a couple
of questions regarding
1071

the last Coward letter
I purchased.

Please come in or call
as soon as you can.

Thank you for bringing it in.

Hi, Lee.
1078
01:00:58,827 --> 01:01:01,164
What seems to be the problem?
1079
01:01:02,532 --> 01:01:06,536
You know I've got that client
who knew Noël Coward.
1080
01:01:07,438 --> 01:01:08,736
And he said that...
1081
01:01:08,738 --> 01:01:13,075
Mr. Coward would never have
been as explicit as he was
1082
01:01:13,077 --> 01:01:17,144
regarding his orientation.
1083
01:01:17,146 --> 01:01:19,315
It was illegal
in those days, and...
1084
01:01:20,015 --> 01:01:23,550
Anyway, apparently,
the letter is a fake.
1085
01:01:23,552 --> 01:01:25,320
I'm shocked.
1086
01:01:25,322 --> 01:01:28,189
I mean, my uncle
would be appalled.
1087
01:01:28,191 --> 01:01:30,325
You mean, your cousin?
1088
01:01:30,327 --> 01:01:31,626
Yes.
1089
01:01:31,628 --> 01:01:37,133

very avuncular toward me. So.

It seems one of your letters
was quite the controversy
1093

name's been put on a list.

in here to see me.

They asked me to wear a wire.

just died, and...

- Oh.
- No, it's all right.

01:03:38,722 --> 01:03:39,921
And I discovered these

1126

be of interest to you or not.

So your granny
collected letters?
1133

I don't know
any of the people in them,
1134
01:04:03,079 --> 01:04:05,914
but I feel they must be
worth something.
1135
01:04:05,916 --> 01:04:07,448

1136
01:04:07,450 --> 01:04:09,117
that I bought
this kind of thing?

- Do you?
- Sure.

01:04:11,320 --> 01:04:16,024
Yeah. I could give you
$50 a piece.

better than that.

but a store in Brooklyn

sell it to them, then?

to paying back

is paying attention,

out of the box,

I was perfect.
1421
01:21:13,209 --> 01:21:15,144
You were so miserable.
1422
01:21:17,278 --> 01:21:19,448
- No, I wasn't.
- Yes, you were.

I don't know if you've noticed
this, but I don't do that.

01:22:16,104 --> 01:22:18,038
And you have reminded me
why that is.

Lee, I took care
of your cat. I swear.
1444

It was an accident,

We will continue

no other option.

you fuck everything else
up in your life.
