1
00:01:13,764 --> 00:01:17,803
I always worry that maybe people aren't
gonna like me when I go to a party.

2
00:01:17,964 --> 00:01:20,159
Isn't that crazy ?

3
00:01:21,004 --> 00:01:26,442
Do you ever get kind of a sick feeling in
your stomach when you dread things ?

4
00:01:26,604 --> 00:01:29,801
I wouldn't wanna miss a party,
but every time I go to one,...

5
00:01:29,964 --> 00:01:33,639
...I keep feeling like
the whole world's against me.

6
00:01:33,804 --> 00:01:37,001
See, I've spent my whole life
in military academies.

7
00:01:37,164 --> 00:01:39,997
My mother doesn't have a place for me
where she lives...

8
00:01:40,164 --> 00:01:42,598
...and she doesn't know
what else to do with me.

9
00:01:42,764 --> 00:01:47,315
You mustn't misunderstand about
my mother. She's really a lovely person.

10
00:01:47,484 --> 00:01:51,875
I guess every boy thinks his mother
is beautiful, but my mother really is.

11
00:01:52,044 --> 00:01:56,481
She tells me in every letter how sorry
she is that we're not together more,...

12
00:01:56,644 --> 00:01:59,716
...but she has to think of her work.

13
00:01:59,884 --> 00:02:03,672
One time we were together, though.
She met me in San Francisco once...

14
00:02:03,844 --> 00:02:08,520
...and we were together for two whole
days, just like we were sweethearts.

15
00:02:08,684 --> 00:02:12,359
It was the most wonderful time
I ever had.

16
00:02:12,524 --> 00:02:16,836
Then I had to go back
to the military academy.

17
00:02:17,004 --> 00:02:21,156
Every time I walk into that barracks,
I get a kind of...

18
00:02:27,004 --> 00:02:29,154
A kind of a...

19
00:02:33,604 --> 00:02:35,401
I'm sorry.

20
00:02:42,244 --> 00:02:44,997
Kind of a depressed feeling.

21
00:02:45,164 --> 00:02:48,918
It's got hard, stone walls.
You know what I mean ?

22
00:02:49,484 --> 00:02:52,999
I guess I've bored you enough,
telling you about myself.

23
00:02:54,444 --> 00:02:56,036
Thank you.

24
00:02:56,204 --> 00:03:00,356
Sorry about that. I goofed up the last
couple of lines. I guess I'm nervous.

25
00:03:00,644 --> 00:03:02,441
That's okay. You did very well.

26
00:03:14,564 --> 00:03:16,316
I'm sorry.

27
00:03:40,364 --> 00:03:43,003
Thank you. You play very well.

28
00:03:43,164 --> 00:03:48,158
Now Mrs Tossoff's gonna play notes
for you. Sing them back to us. Like so :

29
00:03:52,084 --> 00:03:56,362
- It's too low for me.
- You're a tenor ? You want to start here ?

30
00:03:58,924 --> 00:04:01,154
Louder, please.

31
00:04:37,644 --> 00:04:39,475
I'm so nervous.

32
00:04:39,644 --> 00:04:41,919
- I'm not singing.
- But you have to.

33
00:04:42,084 --> 00:04:44,279
- But I came to dance.
- You have to sing too.

34
00:04:44,444 --> 00:04:46,753
- And act, and play an instrument.
- All three ?

35
00:04:46,924 --> 00:04:49,882
- It says "performing arts", doesn't it ?
- You don't have to do everything.

36
00:04:50,084 --> 00:04:55,716
- Sure as shit helps, baby.
- Thank you. Next group, please. Hurry.

37
00:04:55,884 --> 00:04:58,842
- Oh, I like your nose ring.
- I'm into culture.

38
00:04:59,044 --> 00:05:03,003
- Does that hurt, or is that ethnic ?
- Music, please, Mrs Snell.

39
00:05:03,164 --> 00:05:06,793
Please pay attention.
We have a lot to do today.

40
00:05:09,684 --> 00:05:12,517
- I hate my legs.
- Yeah. Me too.

41
00:05:12,724 --> 00:05:16,512
- I've tried every diet in the whole world.
- Really ? Me too.

42
00:05:16,884 --> 00:05:21,321
But you can't help your glands.
I'm sorry ! I'm just so nervous.

43
00:05:21,484 --> 00:05:24,442
Relax ! Come on, use your body.

44
00:05:33,684 --> 00:05:37,279
- Careful. That's 7,000 worth of machine.
- Dollars or pounds ?

45
00:05:37,444 --> 00:05:40,834
Don't touch the rotary pods.
I got it set on saw-tooth.

46
00:05:41,004 --> 00:05:45,441
Why can't he play piccolo ? Something
sensible. Or the accordion, like Papa did.

47
00:05:45,604 --> 00:05:49,153
Same reason you drive a checker and
not a Roman chariot. It's progress.

48
00:05:49,324 --> 00:05:53,237
My son's head is into the future.
And Papa could never play the accordion.

49
00:05:58,284 --> 00:06:01,754
- Do you think you're talented ?
- You swine ! You coward ! You cad !

50
00:06:01,964 --> 00:06:04,353
You dare judge me in my misfortitude ?

51
00:06:04,524 --> 00:06:08,153
You dare to ask me the question
who is the father of my child ?

52
00:06:08,324 --> 00:06:12,795
- You ! You ! I point to you, Nigel !
- Next, please.

53
00:06:13,044 --> 00:06:18,277
The next group of musicians can
go to the fifth floor now, please.

54
00:06:30,964 --> 00:06:32,716
- Name ?
- Excuse me, miss.

55
00:06:32,884 --> 00:06:36,513
You don't need his name. He's not here
for the audition. He's my partner.

56
00:06:36,684 --> 00:06:38,754
- What school's he from ?
- He ain't into school.

57
00:06:38,924 --> 00:06:43,793
He's just helping me out with my
dancing. But it's me who's auditioning.

58
00:06:43,964 --> 00:06:47,798
Mulholland, Shirley. I'm all fixed up.
I filled in all your papers and all.

59
00:06:47,964 --> 00:06:50,114
He doesn't go upstairs
without filling in his name.

60
00:06:50,284 --> 00:06:55,233
Leroy's his name, but I'm auditioning.
Shirley Mulholland. That's two L's.

61
00:06:55,404 --> 00:06:59,795
- And don't ask him to do no writing.
- Doesn't he talk, even ?

62
00:07:00,004 --> 00:07:02,564
He ain't into conversation
until you get to know him.

63
00:07:03,084 --> 00:07:06,963
- Leroy what ?
- Leroy Johnson. Can we go up now ?

64
00:07:07,484 --> 00:07:10,157
He's not going up
until he checks his knife.

65
00:07:10,324 --> 00:07:13,441
We ain't staying long enough for
no trouble. He's just helping a friend.

66
00:07:13,644 --> 00:07:16,841
He's not helping out anyone
unless he checks his knife.

67
00:07:17,004 --> 00:07:20,519
This is the High School for Performing
Arts. We don't cut each other up here.

68
00:07:21,524 --> 00:07:23,242
- You want it ?
- I want it.

69
00:07:23,564 --> 00:07:25,873
- You sure you want it ?
- Yeah, I'm sure.

70
00:07:27,084 --> 00:07:30,042
- Promise you won't steal it, now ?
- I promise.

71
00:07:32,404 --> 00:07:34,713
- Thanks, ma'am.
- Name ?

72
00:07:34,924 --> 00:07:38,200
Don't worry, baby. I got lots of knives.

73
00:07:39,044 --> 00:07:41,956
- What are you going to do for us ?
- I was gonna sing.

74
00:07:42,164 --> 00:07:45,395
- You don't have to sing, honey.
- We know our rights.

75
00:07:45,564 --> 00:07:49,603
- You can't refuse her an audition.
- She's not supposed to sing her audition.

76
00:07:49,764 --> 00:07:54,599
Please, excuse me, if you don't mind.
Honey, you don't have to sing for us...

77
00:07:54,764 --> 00:07:58,393
- ...because this is the drama department.
- When she sings, it is drama.

78
00:07:58,684 --> 00:08:01,152
- What's your name, honey ?
- Finsecker.

79
00:08:03,564 --> 00:08:04,838
Doris Finsecker.

80
00:08:10,604 --> 00:08:13,516
- Hi.
- How do you do ?

81
00:08:13,684 --> 00:08:15,720
- What's your name ?
- Ralph Garci.

82
00:08:16,044 --> 00:08:20,037
- Who was your teacher ?
- Well, my father taught me.

83
00:08:20,204 --> 00:08:24,800
He's doing work for the government.
I'm not supposed to talk about it...

84
00:08:25,004 --> 00:08:31,000
...but my father played some of the
most beautiful symphonies...

85
00:08:31,164 --> 00:08:33,758
- ...in the whole world once.
- What did he play ?

86
00:08:34,924 --> 00:08:36,801
Trombones.

87
00:08:37,764 --> 00:08:40,039
And French horns.

88
00:08:41,524 --> 00:08:42,513
English horns.

89
00:08:44,524 --> 00:08:46,515
- Saxophones.
- Anything else ?

90
00:08:46,724 --> 00:08:47,998
Yeah.

91
00:08:49,364 --> 00:08:54,199
- Bongos, maracas, that sort of stuff.
- What did he teach you ?

92
00:09:02,124 --> 00:09:04,035
Why don't you
try the dance department.

93
00:09:04,204 --> 00:09:07,560
- Why do you want to go to school here ?
- Should I tell him ?

94
00:09:07,964 --> 00:09:09,113
Yeah, tell him.

95
00:09:09,884 --> 00:09:12,796
We can't afford a professional
children's school.

96
00:09:14,684 --> 00:09:18,677
Okay. If you want to sing, go ahead.
Then we'll look at your acting.

97
00:09:19,844 --> 00:09:21,482
I'm a little nervous.

98
00:09:21,684 --> 00:09:26,280
Don't be shy, Sheila. Come over here.
What are you going to do ?

99
00:09:26,524 --> 00:09:29,402
- I'm doing The Towering lnferno.
- What ?

100
00:09:30,604 --> 00:09:33,641
- You know, the movie ?
- Oh.

101
00:09:34,084 --> 00:09:37,121
All right, I'm playing O.J. Simpson.
I'm in this building.

102
00:09:37,284 --> 00:09:40,754
There's fire all around, right ?
So I go to the elevator.

103
00:09:40,964 --> 00:09:44,798
Think of it as a concentration exercise.
Just sing to Michael...

104
00:09:45,004 --> 00:09:50,237
- ...and don't worry about anybody else.
- I don't think I can. I can't just stare.

105
00:09:50,444 --> 00:09:52,002
He won't mind.

106
00:09:55,284 --> 00:09:59,402
- Waiting for the elevator.
- Press the button, Doris.

107
00:10:04,204 --> 00:10:05,398
Her brother Harvey.

108
00:10:26,124 --> 00:10:28,957
Doesn't come, so now I'm getting mad.

109
00:11:07,684 --> 00:11:11,996
Finally it comes, so I get in.
Okay, and there's people all around.

110
00:11:12,164 --> 00:11:14,598
And they're looking right at me.

111
00:11:59,204 --> 00:12:03,038
Yeah, my father taught me. I'm not
supposed to talk about him right now.

112
00:12:03,204 --> 00:12:05,877
He's doing a little bit of work
for the government, but...

113
00:12:06,044 --> 00:12:10,117
My father is very, very famous.
He danced with the Rockettes.

114
00:12:10,604 --> 00:12:12,595
Sure. Would you begin, please ?

115
00:12:14,084 --> 00:12:16,917
- I'll be doing "Swanee River" for you.
- Okay.

116
00:12:17,084 --> 00:12:19,552
And...

117
00:12:19,724 --> 00:12:24,434
Hon ? "Swanee River," please.
Hit it.

118
00:12:28,524 --> 00:12:32,119
Doris, what would you do
if you don't make it ?

119
00:12:32,684 --> 00:12:33,719
We'll make it.

120
00:12:34,284 --> 00:12:36,354
Next, please.

121
00:12:36,844 --> 00:12:39,642
But I that am not shaped
for sportive tricks...

122
00:12:39,804 --> 00:12:42,602
...nor made to court
an amorous looking glass...

123
00:12:42,764 --> 00:12:45,801
I that am... cheated of...
Oh, I'm sorry.

124
00:13:01,604 --> 00:13:03,720
Why don't you try
the drama department.

125
00:13:03,924 --> 00:13:08,998
If again "it was not well cut",
he'd answer, I spake not true :

126
00:13:09,164 --> 00:13:11,394
This is called the Reply Churlish.

127
00:13:11,724 --> 00:13:14,602
Nobody talks about it,
but there's a quota system.

128
00:13:14,764 --> 00:13:19,474
Your chances are better if you're black,
Puerto Rican or everything, like me.

129
00:13:19,644 --> 00:13:23,762
- I am Puerto Rican.
- Not on your paper you ain't, Garci.

130
00:13:23,924 --> 00:13:27,553
- Your daddy doing government work.
- That's the truth.

131
00:13:27,844 --> 00:13:31,837
And he left you his tap shoes, right ?
Does he work for Pepsi-Cola too ?

132
00:13:32,524 --> 00:13:33,559
Be careful.

133
00:13:33,804 --> 00:13:36,364
- To the left. Left.
- Come the other way.

134
00:13:36,524 --> 00:13:38,116
All right.

135
00:13:38,284 --> 00:13:40,798
Easy, now. Straight back, Bruno ?

136
00:13:42,564 --> 00:13:45,442
- Where do you want this at ?
- Far corner.

137
00:13:47,804 --> 00:13:49,601
How do you do ?

138
00:13:49,804 --> 00:13:51,556
Okay. Fine.

139
00:13:51,724 --> 00:13:55,797
Great. Look, I'll do that. You just go
and get the rest of the stuff, okay ?

140
00:13:55,964 --> 00:13:57,955
Oh, Martelli. Bruno Martelli.

141
00:13:58,284 --> 00:14:01,481
Would you like to set up
your equipment, Mr Martelli ?

142
00:14:06,604 --> 00:14:08,117
Who taught you ?

143
00:14:08,284 --> 00:14:13,802
Who taught me ? My father taught me.
He's in Spain. He makes Westerns.

144
00:14:13,964 --> 00:14:18,116
- Why do you want to go to school here ?
- Because Freddie went here.

145
00:14:18,364 --> 00:14:22,152
- Freddie ?
- Freddie Prinze. He's the best.

146
00:14:22,324 --> 00:14:25,919
- So you want to be an actor, huh ?
- Yeah, sure, I want to be an actor.

147
00:14:26,084 --> 00:14:28,518
Judy, Judy, Judy.
Top of the world, Ma.

148
00:14:28,684 --> 00:14:33,155
We don't want you to perform. We want
to see who you are. You understand ?

149
00:14:33,484 --> 00:14:35,634
- Right.
- Use your own experience.

150
00:14:36,004 --> 00:14:38,837
Be simple, be honest,
but most of all, be yourself.

151
00:14:39,444 --> 00:14:43,198
- Be honest. Be simple. Be yourself ?
- Be yourself.

152
00:14:44,644 --> 00:14:48,842
I'm God, see ? And God
is Puerto Rican, you got that ? Now.

153
00:14:49,404 --> 00:14:53,397
God works in a casa de steam,
you know. It's a steam bath, right ?

154
00:14:53,564 --> 00:14:59,434
And he's talking to this angel. This angel
is a computer. An electronic computer.

155
00:14:59,604 --> 00:15:04,234
I'm God, see ? That's why I'm standing
on this chair, you got that ? Good.

156
00:15:13,324 --> 00:15:16,680
Does he wanna be a musician
or an airline pilot ?

157
00:15:17,724 --> 00:15:21,478
Mr Martelli. We are ready when you are.
Would you care to begin ?

158
00:15:21,684 --> 00:15:24,198
Oh, okay. Sure.

159
00:15:48,164 --> 00:15:49,153
Mr Martelli.

160
00:15:51,524 --> 00:15:53,401
Mr Martelli.

161
00:15:57,324 --> 00:15:58,439
Mr Martelli !

162
00:16:00,364 --> 00:16:03,879
Thank you. One instrument
at a time will be quite sufficient.

163
00:16:04,084 --> 00:16:06,757
I could do it in 4/4
if you prefer a disco beat.

164
00:17:31,884 --> 00:17:34,444
She's a disaster.

165
00:17:37,484 --> 00:17:43,036
Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo ?
Deny thy father and refuse thy name.

166
00:17:43,204 --> 00:17:45,957
Or, if thou wilt not,
be but sworn my love...

167
00:17:46,124 --> 00:17:50,754
...and then I'll no longer be a Capu...
Capu... Capu-something.

168
00:17:50,924 --> 00:17:54,997
- Capulet.
- Like Cappelletti, the football player ?

169
00:17:55,164 --> 00:17:57,234
- Something like that.
- That's what I mean.

170
00:18:01,444 --> 00:18:04,402
- Where's his application ?
- He doesn't have one.

171
00:18:04,564 --> 00:18:06,680
Well, get him one.

172
00:18:24,084 --> 00:18:26,917
- What do you call that ?
- Wicked.

173
00:18:39,084 --> 00:18:40,483
Thou art thyself.

174
00:18:40,644 --> 00:18:43,716
Thou art not a Montagoo...
Montagazz... Who knows ?

175
00:18:43,884 --> 00:18:49,402
This is the last day of auditions. We've
seen a lot of students. We're punchy.

176
00:18:49,604 --> 00:18:54,883
We're gonna take a break. Go next door
to Mrs Shime. Have her audition you.

177
00:18:55,044 --> 00:18:58,036
- Right next door.
- I tell her that you sent me ?

178
00:18:58,204 --> 00:19:00,035
- Yeah.
- All right.

179
00:19:00,204 --> 00:19:01,557
By the way...

180
00:19:01,724 --> 00:19:05,717
- ...you were reading the girl's part.
- Shit.

181
00:19:06,804 --> 00:19:10,592
- You're not into high school, remember ?
- I'm into dancing.

182
00:19:10,764 --> 00:19:15,884
You're into ass, you mean. You don't
have to go to high school for that.

183
00:19:16,044 --> 00:19:20,834
- I was doing you a favor, remember ?
- Some fat fucking favor.

184
00:19:22,004 --> 00:19:27,397
Take your things to the third floor.
Give your forms to the senior there.

185
00:19:27,724 --> 00:19:32,195
Okay, you go downstairs, change
in the girls' room and wait for him.

186
00:19:32,364 --> 00:19:35,561
I'm through ?
I don't have to dance anymore ?

187
00:19:35,724 --> 00:19:38,602
Where you going, Leroy ?
He's in and I'm out, right ?

188
00:19:38,804 --> 00:19:44,595
Fuck you, Leroy ! This was my audition,
remember ? You're not into high school.

189
00:19:44,764 --> 00:19:50,122
We were rehearsing to get me into this
school, not you, you fucker ! It's not fair !

190
00:19:50,284 --> 00:19:53,879
I didn't want to come here anyway.
This school sucks.

191
00:19:54,084 --> 00:19:56,200
You've done me a favor, shithead.

192
00:19:56,404 --> 00:20:00,477
You saved me four fucking years
from this ass-licking school !

193
00:20:00,684 --> 00:20:03,881
You looking at one happy lady !

194
00:20:05,084 --> 00:20:08,679
Who wants to go to a fucking school
to learn to dance, anyway ?

195
00:20:10,404 --> 00:20:12,042
Yeah, hello ?

196
00:20:12,204 --> 00:20:17,483
No, it isn't. This is Naomi Finsecker
speaking. Her mother. Who is this ?

197
00:20:26,804 --> 00:20:31,082
Replacement ?
What do you mean, replacement ?

198
00:20:34,964 --> 00:20:37,558
So is she in or is she out ?

199
00:20:40,524 --> 00:20:43,641
I got in ! I got in !
I got into Performing Arts !

200
00:20:48,204 --> 00:20:50,764
Doris, we're in !

201
00:21:38,924 --> 00:21:41,484
Get her out of there !

202
00:21:44,644 --> 00:21:48,353
- Hey, later on.
- All right. All right !

203
00:21:48,524 --> 00:21:50,754
See y'all later.

204
00:21:51,484 --> 00:21:54,556
- Hello.
- Hey, mama, get in the car !

205
00:21:58,284 --> 00:22:01,674
Come on, baby, come on.
Don't go to school.

206
00:22:01,844 --> 00:22:05,154
- Martelli, Bruno.
- Bruno. Come on.

207
00:22:05,324 --> 00:22:07,042
Garcia, Raul.

208
00:22:08,284 --> 00:22:11,401
- Garcia, Raul ?
- It's Ralph.

209
00:22:13,004 --> 00:22:15,723
- It says Raul.
- I don't relate to that.

210
00:22:16,884 --> 00:22:19,717
- Garcia, Ralph.
- It's Garci.

211
00:22:19,884 --> 00:22:23,797
Ralph Garci. I think they
spelled it wrong on the application.

212
00:22:23,964 --> 00:22:26,432
- Garci, Ralph.
- Here.

213
00:22:29,004 --> 00:22:31,234
- MacNeil, Montgomery.
- Here.

214
00:22:31,804 --> 00:22:34,762
- Monroe, Lisa.
- Yes ?

215
00:22:36,204 --> 00:22:37,319
Johnson, Leroy.

216
00:22:39,444 --> 00:22:40,763
Johnson, Leroy ?

217
00:22:42,924 --> 00:22:47,679
In future, Mr Johnson, I'd like you to
leave your ghetto blaster at home.

218
00:22:48,044 --> 00:22:51,559
I'd have left it home
if it wasn't so goddamn boring in here.

219
00:22:52,204 --> 00:22:57,881
This is a classroom, Mr Johnson. You're
going to be here for four years...

220
00:22:58,044 --> 00:23:01,354
...with your eyes open,
homework done, pencils sharpened...

221
00:23:01,524 --> 00:23:07,076
...and all food, cigarettes and radios
outside. Do you understand me ?

222
00:23:08,924 --> 00:23:12,633
- Why are you here, Mr Johnson ?
- Because I's young and single...

223
00:23:12,804 --> 00:23:15,796
- ...and I loves to mingle.
- Speak English.

224
00:23:15,964 --> 00:23:20,276
- I speak like I likes.
- This is my room. You'll speak as I like.

225
00:23:20,444 --> 00:23:24,801
I teach English. Now, if that's
a foreign language, you're gonna learn it.

226
00:23:26,844 --> 00:23:31,838
This is no Mickey Mouse school. You
won't get off easy because of talent.

227
00:23:32,044 --> 00:23:36,003
- I don't care how well you dance...
- Bitch run her fucking mouth.

228
00:23:36,204 --> 00:23:40,163
...or how many colored tutus you have.
If you don't give academic subjects...

229
00:23:40,324 --> 00:23:44,033
- ...equal time, you're out.
- Bullshit.

230
00:23:44,204 --> 00:23:47,560
You have to arrive earlier
to get dressed and warmed up.

231
00:23:47,724 --> 00:23:50,875
You have to take outside classes
in your major field...

232
00:23:51,044 --> 00:23:55,720
...and study ballet, modern, folk,
jazz, tap and historical dance here...

233
00:23:55,884 --> 00:23:58,557
...as well as dance history,
supported adagio...

234
00:23:58,884 --> 00:24:03,878
...variation class, makeup, hairstyling
and even acting for dancers.

235
00:24:04,044 --> 00:24:09,198
50,000 people call themselves actors,
and maybe 500 are making a living at it.

236
00:24:09,364 --> 00:24:13,357
Most of those do commercials to
pay the rent. The rest wait tables...

237
00:24:13,524 --> 00:24:17,756
...clean other people's apartments,
living on welfare and hope.

238
00:24:17,924 --> 00:24:20,199
Don't think talent's enough
to get you through.

239
00:24:20,364 --> 00:24:24,676
You gotta have a strong technique,
a good agent, and most of all, thick skin.

240
00:24:24,884 --> 00:24:28,957
Now you're part of an underprivileged
minority, and you're going to suffer.

241
00:24:29,164 --> 00:24:33,316
Pulled tendons, shin splints,
swollen toes, smelly tights...

242
00:24:33,484 --> 00:24:36,794
Cattle calls, the humiliation,
the rejection...

243
00:24:36,964 --> 00:24:42,118
Melodic dictation theory, keyboard
harmony, piano, piano literature,...

244
00:24:42,284 --> 00:24:48,041
...music history, orchestration,
conducting, symphonic band...

245
00:24:48,204 --> 00:24:51,719
- When do we have lunch ?
- Lunch is at 11:30. One half-hour...

246
00:24:51,884 --> 00:24:54,921
- ...and then you'll have everything else.
- What's everything else ?

247
00:24:55,084 --> 00:25:00,204
Biology, chemistry, algebra, English,
French, physics, history, et cetera.

248
00:25:00,564 --> 00:25:03,636
Dance is not a way
of getting through school.

249
00:25:03,804 --> 00:25:07,956
It's a way of life, plus school.
The school part is easier.

250
00:25:08,164 --> 00:25:12,362
So you better like yourself a lot.
Because that's all you got to work with.

251
00:25:12,524 --> 00:25:16,403
Use yourself.
Your voice, your experiences.

252
00:25:16,564 --> 00:25:21,319
Wanna accumulate some experiences ?
I got plenty of experiences to spare.

253
00:25:22,884 --> 00:25:26,399
You know what ?
I live with two chicks.

254
00:25:26,604 --> 00:25:29,437
Dance is the hardest
department in the school.

255
00:25:29,644 --> 00:25:32,112
Acting is the hardest
profession in the world.

256
00:25:32,324 --> 00:25:37,717
Music is the hardest profession of
them all. Isn't that right, Mrs Tossoff ?

257
00:25:37,884 --> 00:25:38,919
Indeed.

258
00:26:32,564 --> 00:26:34,122
Okay.

259
00:26:36,964 --> 00:26:39,398
No fighting. Stay in line, please.

260
00:26:40,964 --> 00:26:41,999
Who's next ?

261
00:26:51,964 --> 00:26:53,682
Excuse me.

262
00:26:55,124 --> 00:26:59,163
- I'll be doing my scene Thursday...
- I'll be right back.

263
00:27:05,204 --> 00:27:06,717
Get out of my seat !

264
00:30:55,004 --> 00:30:59,202
- Hi.
- Hi. That's too wild for me.

265
00:31:00,244 --> 00:31:02,917
- I'm in your acting class.
- I know.

266
00:31:03,084 --> 00:31:05,154
Montgomery MacNeil.

267
00:31:05,804 --> 00:31:08,762
- Doris Finsecker.
- Hi. Wanna sit down ?

268
00:31:08,924 --> 00:31:13,361
All right. Is your mother really
Marsha MacNeil, the actress ?

269
00:31:13,524 --> 00:31:15,640
- That's right.
- She does wonderful work.

270
00:31:15,964 --> 00:31:18,558
- Have you seen her ?
- But I've heard.

271
00:31:20,804 --> 00:31:24,479
- I didn't know she lived in New York.
- She doesn't. Officially, she does...

272
00:31:24,644 --> 00:31:28,922
...but she's been on the road forever.
She gets paid to stay in hotels...

273
00:31:29,084 --> 00:31:32,997
...but she stays with friends. Sends her
per diems home to me and Dr Golden.

274
00:31:33,244 --> 00:31:36,793
- Is that your stepfather ?
- My analyst.

275
00:31:38,124 --> 00:31:40,240
What's wrong with you ?

276
00:31:40,684 --> 00:31:43,881
It's pretty technical, really.
I have problems.

277
00:31:47,484 --> 00:31:50,760
- What kind of problems ?
- With women.

278
00:31:57,524 --> 00:32:01,119
Fine. Swaying with a nice humming
sound, please. And :

279
00:32:02,964 --> 00:32:04,556
Let the arms go.

280
00:32:09,324 --> 00:32:12,521
Good, good, good.
And chew.

281
00:32:14,764 --> 00:32:16,163
Faster.

282
00:32:16,724 --> 00:32:18,680
Speed.

283
00:32:18,844 --> 00:32:21,404
Tongues out.
Down.

284
00:32:21,604 --> 00:32:23,083
Side. Side.

285
00:32:23,284 --> 00:32:26,117
And round, round.
Come on.

286
00:32:35,684 --> 00:32:38,278
More energy !

287
00:32:40,924 --> 00:32:43,722
Do it together, please.
Keep moving.

288
00:32:44,204 --> 00:32:47,958
Much better.
Much, much better now.

289
00:32:54,444 --> 00:32:56,002
Reach for the jeté !

290
00:32:56,764 --> 00:32:59,324
And :

291
00:32:59,484 --> 00:33:02,521
Impulse to impulse.

292
00:33:37,524 --> 00:33:38,923
Relax.

293
00:33:40,084 --> 00:33:41,483
Relax.

294
00:33:41,924 --> 00:33:45,360
Sense the floor against your bodies.

295
00:33:46,124 --> 00:33:49,241
Feel it against
the backs of your legs.

296
00:33:49,764 --> 00:33:51,322
Your arms.

297
00:33:52,084 --> 00:33:53,756
Your shoulders.

298
00:33:54,164 --> 00:33:56,758
Let your senses remember...

299
00:33:56,924 --> 00:34:00,394
...this feeling of heaviness.

300
00:34:01,004 --> 00:34:04,360
Relax and breathe.

301
00:34:05,164 --> 00:34:08,998
Relax and breathe.

302
00:34:10,764 --> 00:34:15,963
All right, let's go. Thank you.
Don't be late. Come on. Don't be late.

303
00:34:37,684 --> 00:34:40,517
- Should you be on this floor ?
- I have a note.

304
00:34:40,684 --> 00:34:43,721
- Miss Berg wants a tambourine.
- Fine.

305
00:34:47,404 --> 00:34:50,953
Excuse me ? Excuse me ?
You speak English ?

306
00:34:51,124 --> 00:34:53,194
- Bruno Martelli ?
- He's across the hall.

307
00:34:53,364 --> 00:34:54,922
Thanks.

308
00:34:59,564 --> 00:35:02,032
- Hi.
- Hi.

309
00:35:03,724 --> 00:35:06,841
- What kind of music notes are those ?
- Laser beams.

310
00:35:07,004 --> 00:35:10,758
- It's a requiem for Buck Rogers.
- Great.

311
00:35:11,484 --> 00:35:15,238
- You ever thought of doing real music ?
- This is my music.

312
00:35:15,404 --> 00:35:18,282
- I mean a band.
- I don't like bands. They crowd me.

313
00:35:18,444 --> 00:35:22,676
- I prefer my basement, no people.
- There's money though, in summer trade.

314
00:35:22,844 --> 00:35:25,756
- If we get together in time.
- I'm really not interested.

315
00:35:25,924 --> 00:35:29,599
There's tea dances and parties,
weddings and bar mitzvahs.

316
00:35:29,764 --> 00:35:33,552
Those things are steady. People always
get married and grow up.

317
00:35:33,724 --> 00:35:36,682
- I don't need the hassle.
- I'll take care of everything...

318
00:35:36,844 --> 00:35:38,914
...just like a regular business manager.

319
00:35:39,084 --> 00:35:43,316
I'll look after the bookings, travel,
costume designs, for 10% off the top.

320
00:35:43,484 --> 00:35:45,554
Then a straight split
of the performing cut.

321
00:35:45,724 --> 00:35:49,683
- What costume designs ?
- Nothing fancy, just sequins and stuff.

322
00:35:49,844 --> 00:35:53,154
See-through for me, maybe low-cut.
We gotta give them visuals.

323
00:35:53,324 --> 00:35:58,444
The sound might be wicked, but when
you get down to it, tits book bands.

324
00:35:58,604 --> 00:36:02,358
- I think I'll stay in my basement.
- Bruno, this is our chance.

325
00:36:02,524 --> 00:36:07,882
- Don't you want success ?
- Sure. I don't think our tits are up to it.

326
00:36:13,164 --> 00:36:14,836
Why ?

327
00:36:15,804 --> 00:36:18,398
Oh, why ?

328
00:36:20,324 --> 00:36:24,033
God will punish you,
Yuri Yajeyopeyonoff.

329
00:36:25,324 --> 00:36:28,521
What crime is this unborn
child guilty of...

330
00:36:28,684 --> 00:36:31,596
...that it should not drink of
the milk of paradise ?

331
00:36:31,764 --> 00:36:35,473
You warned me, Elena.
Not one ruble have I lost, not one.

332
00:36:39,524 --> 00:36:44,040
- Can we try this again ? It sounds phony.
- I don't wanna try this again.

333
00:36:44,204 --> 00:36:48,083
- There's nothing wrong with you.
- I know. That's what's wrong with me.

334
00:36:48,244 --> 00:36:53,796
Everybody here is colorful or eccentric
or charismatic. I'm perfectly ordinary.

335
00:36:53,964 --> 00:36:59,516
My nose is ordinary. My body's ordinary.
And my voice, it's...

336
00:37:00,044 --> 00:37:02,683
- I don't know why I'm here.
- You wanna be an actress.

337
00:37:02,844 --> 00:37:07,122
Yeah, but actors and actresses
are colorful, flamboyant beings.

338
00:37:07,404 --> 00:37:10,555
I'm about as flamboyant as a bagel.

339
00:37:11,084 --> 00:37:12,278
Hi.

340
00:37:12,444 --> 00:37:14,435
- Hi.
- Hi.

341
00:37:15,084 --> 00:37:18,121
- Some people like bagels.
- Some people don't.

342
00:37:18,284 --> 00:37:21,401
- Some people are too old for you.
- He smiles at me.

343
00:37:21,564 --> 00:37:24,522
- He smiles at everyone.
- Yeah, but he winks too.

344
00:37:24,684 --> 00:37:27,881
- I think it's a nervous habit.
- He talks to me, often.

345
00:37:28,164 --> 00:37:30,883
- Really ? What's he say ?
- Hi.

346
00:37:31,164 --> 00:37:34,236
That's serious. Have you set the date ?

347
00:37:37,364 --> 00:37:39,320
I'm sorry.

348
00:37:40,284 --> 00:37:42,559
- I'm sorry.
- I feel stupid.

349
00:37:42,724 --> 00:37:43,759
So get into it.

350
00:37:43,924 --> 00:37:46,154
Study it. Try to remember it
so you can...

351
00:37:46,284 --> 00:37:47,273
Hey, M and M.

352
00:37:47,444 --> 00:37:49,196
Seen your shrink lately ?

353
00:37:49,484 --> 00:37:52,044
- Yesterday.
- You got a special delivery ?

354
00:37:52,444 --> 00:37:54,162
How you doing ? How are you ?

355
00:37:55,484 --> 00:37:58,123
Oh, good. That's very good.
You're a good man.

356
00:37:58,924 --> 00:38:01,484
They're not for me.
They're for a friend of mine.

357
00:38:03,204 --> 00:38:04,637
Who's the lucky fella, huh ?

358
00:38:05,244 --> 00:38:08,475
Looks like somebody finally
corked up old Finsecker.

359
00:38:08,804 --> 00:38:11,398
It can't be Gloria over here.
He's not into chicks.

360
00:38:15,164 --> 00:38:16,517
Shut my mouth.

361
00:38:18,084 --> 00:38:19,073
Bye.

362
00:38:20,404 --> 00:38:22,793
I hate Ralph Garci, I really do.

363
00:38:23,244 --> 00:38:25,804
I must remember this feeling
and use it in my acting.

364
00:38:28,924 --> 00:38:30,118
I'm scared.

365
00:38:30,284 --> 00:38:34,755
I'm scared I won't be able to live up
to their expectations of me.

366
00:38:37,044 --> 00:38:39,353
Flashing images of passion...

367
00:38:42,484 --> 00:38:46,443
...and hurl you to the ground
and make mad, passionate love.

368
00:38:47,404 --> 00:38:49,315
- I forgot it !
- For two weeks ?

369
00:38:49,484 --> 00:38:52,362
- I told you, I done it and I forgot it.
- My hearing's fine.

370
00:38:52,524 --> 00:38:56,597
It's your homework that's missing.
And these pages are unintelligible.

371
00:38:57,404 --> 00:39:00,441
It's a secret language.
It ain't meant for whiteys.

372
00:39:00,604 --> 00:39:02,834
- This isn't a joke.
- I got lots of jokes.

373
00:39:03,164 --> 00:39:05,598
- This is garbage !
- My pen broke.

374
00:39:05,804 --> 00:39:08,682
- It's in pencil.
- That broke too.

375
00:39:08,844 --> 00:39:11,483
You can't learn to read,
you can't learn to dance.

376
00:39:11,724 --> 00:39:13,954
You're flunking out.

377
00:39:14,124 --> 00:39:15,193
I can read.

378
00:39:15,364 --> 00:39:18,197
Terrific ! Go ahead, surprise us.
Give him your book.

379
00:39:18,364 --> 00:39:20,639
Pay attention.
Mr Johnson is gonna read.

380
00:39:21,564 --> 00:39:23,873
- I said I can read !
- Then read.

381
00:39:25,004 --> 00:39:26,437
- No.
- Read !

382
00:39:26,764 --> 00:39:28,038
- No !
- Read !

383
00:39:28,204 --> 00:39:29,523
No, you fucking bitch !

384
00:39:29,684 --> 00:39:34,121
What the fuck you want me to do,
asking me to read all the fucking time ?

385
00:39:34,284 --> 00:39:36,673
I hate your guts. You read,
you fucking bitch !

386
00:40:43,004 --> 00:40:44,119
It's not natural.

387
00:40:44,284 --> 00:40:46,354
Get off my case, huh, Papa ?

388
00:40:47,404 --> 00:40:51,238
When I was your age, Bruno,
I had a lot of girlfriends.

389
00:40:51,404 --> 00:40:54,282
- I had a different girlfriend every day.
- I got music.

390
00:40:55,244 --> 00:40:57,155
Same to you, pal ! Go ahead.

391
00:40:57,324 --> 00:41:01,636
Go ahead ! Oh, sure, you got music,
okay. But for what ? For yourself.

392
00:41:01,764 --> 00:41:02,753
For your headset.

393
00:41:03,004 --> 00:41:06,440
I mean, do I hear it anymore ?
Does your mama hear it ?

394
00:41:06,604 --> 00:41:07,878
Do your friends hear it ?

395
00:41:08,204 --> 00:41:10,195
Bruno, do you have friends ? Huh ?

396
00:41:10,364 --> 00:41:14,118
- I don't have time. I told you.
- You told me. You told me.

397
00:41:14,284 --> 00:41:17,162
It's not natural. When I was your age,
I'm telling you...

398
00:41:17,324 --> 00:41:20,202
You're not my age. Nobody's my age.
I'm ahead of my time.

399
00:41:20,364 --> 00:41:22,355
Maybe I don't think
people will like my stuff.

400
00:41:22,524 --> 00:41:26,995
How do you know what people will like ?
How do they know if they don't hear it ?

401
00:41:27,164 --> 00:41:30,759
Bruno, how do they recognize your talent
and give you scholarships...

402
00:41:30,924 --> 00:41:33,154
...and record contracts, son,
and awards ?

403
00:41:33,484 --> 00:41:36,920
Maybe I die undiscovered,
and my ghost gets the Grammy.

404
00:41:37,084 --> 00:41:41,475
Maybe ! Look, did I build you a studio
in the basement for a ghost ?

405
00:41:41,644 --> 00:41:45,159
Did I spent $7,000 on equipment
for a ghost ?

406
00:41:45,404 --> 00:41:50,273
Does your mama cook and clean and
wear old clothes for a ghost ? A ghost ?

407
00:41:50,444 --> 00:41:53,720
Elton John's mom has got
six mink coats.

408
00:43:02,924 --> 00:43:08,681
"Wel... Wel... Welcome to...

409
00:43:08,844 --> 00:43:12,519
...the wo... Won...

410
00:43:12,684 --> 00:43:16,836
...Wonderful...

411
00:43:17,004 --> 00:43:21,156
...world of...

412
00:43:21,324 --> 00:43:26,842
...Ma... Maytag...

413
00:43:27,004 --> 00:43:31,077
...wash... Wash... Washing...

414
00:43:31,244 --> 00:43:34,202
...mach... Ma...

415
00:43:34,364 --> 00:43:36,514
...Machines."

416
00:44:14,284 --> 00:44:15,558
Talk about Shorofsky.

417
00:44:15,724 --> 00:44:21,356
Mr Shorofsky does not understand any
music past Mozart when he was 2.

418
00:44:21,524 --> 00:44:23,560
They're all the same.
What do you expect ?

419
00:44:24,564 --> 00:44:29,001
Graduating from P.A. is no Academy
Award. You know what I mean.

420
00:44:29,724 --> 00:44:33,478
It is better than real school. It's free,
and you don't get raped in the hallways.

421
00:44:33,644 --> 00:44:36,204
But it's still small change.

422
00:44:36,364 --> 00:44:39,561
I'm just killing time here,
waiting for my opportunity.

423
00:44:39,724 --> 00:44:42,363
It might be a movie
or a Broadway musical.

424
00:44:42,524 --> 00:44:45,084
But it's coming. I keep my eyes open.

425
00:44:45,244 --> 00:44:48,281
I read Back Stage, Show Business
and Variety.

426
00:44:48,444 --> 00:44:50,594
You see, I do the whole thing.

427
00:44:50,764 --> 00:44:53,961
Dancing's just the tip
of this iceberg.

428
00:44:54,124 --> 00:44:57,400
A friend of my sister,
she tells fortunes and stuff.

429
00:44:57,564 --> 00:45:00,920
She says I'm doing my last dance
on this dark little planet.

430
00:45:01,084 --> 00:45:03,279
So it's gotta be spectacular, you know ?

431
00:45:03,444 --> 00:45:06,038
How bright our spirits
go shooting out into space...

432
00:45:06,204 --> 00:45:10,322
...depends on how much we contributed
to the earthly brilliance of this world.

433
00:45:10,484 --> 00:45:14,193
And I mean to be a major contributor.

434
00:45:15,324 --> 00:45:17,474
A sure-as-shit major contributor.

435
00:45:24,204 --> 00:45:26,843
- Can someone just... ?
- She's cleaning her cleavage.

436
00:45:27,004 --> 00:45:31,316
She's taking out the lint. Oh,
that's beautiful. I wish I had a camera.

437
00:45:31,484 --> 00:45:34,635
There she is. Get out of the way.
She's gorgeous.

438
00:45:34,804 --> 00:45:36,999
Oh, now turn around, please.

439
00:45:37,324 --> 00:45:38,837
Oh, please.

440
00:45:39,004 --> 00:45:40,517
Oh, look at those tits.

441
00:45:40,844 --> 00:45:42,357
Oh, you could drown in those.

442
00:45:42,524 --> 00:45:47,723
I want you to observe yourself
doing ordinary, everyday things.

443
00:45:48,204 --> 00:45:50,764
You'll be asked to duplicate
those here in class.

444
00:45:50,924 --> 00:45:53,199
An actor must develop
an acute sense memory...

445
00:45:53,364 --> 00:45:57,642
...so concentrate on how you deal
with things in your world...

446
00:45:57,804 --> 00:46:01,877
...how you wash your face
or hold your fork or lift your cup...

447
00:46:02,044 --> 00:46:07,323
...comb your hair. Observe and study
your own mechanicalness.

448
00:46:07,484 --> 00:46:12,114
See if you can catch yourself in the
very act of doing or saying something.

449
00:46:13,244 --> 00:46:17,954
See if your actions and reactions fall into
patterns and what those patterns are.

450
00:46:18,124 --> 00:46:21,719
And in particular, pay close attention
to the physical world.

451
00:46:21,884 --> 00:46:25,877
Isolate and concentrate on the details.

452
00:46:37,244 --> 00:46:39,712
Oh, mamacita !

453
00:46:44,044 --> 00:46:45,557
Ay, caramba !

454
00:46:52,684 --> 00:46:56,120
No ! No ! No ! Give me that !

455
00:46:56,284 --> 00:46:58,844
You must hold your bow like this,
not like that.

456
00:46:59,004 --> 00:47:00,801
It's not your dick you're holding.

457
00:47:00,964 --> 00:47:05,082
Excuse me, miss. It's a violin bow.
Hold it with a little respect, like...

458
00:47:05,244 --> 00:47:07,075
Like your dick ?

459
00:47:07,244 --> 00:47:09,394
Shut up. Again.

460
00:47:39,244 --> 00:47:42,202
Watch your plié, Coco.

461
00:47:43,324 --> 00:47:46,839
Turn out the arch, Leroy.

462
00:47:47,324 --> 00:47:48,757
Nice, Neisha.

463
00:47:50,204 --> 00:47:52,320
I want to see the leg, Patrick.

464
00:47:52,484 --> 00:47:55,635
And stretch.

465
00:47:57,484 --> 00:47:59,076
Good.

466
00:48:00,444 --> 00:48:02,116
Keep it together now.

467
00:48:06,924 --> 00:48:10,758
Where's the sweat, Lisa ?
You're not even trying.

468
00:48:25,324 --> 00:48:28,122
- Michael, congratulations. I heard.
- Oh, thank you.

469
00:48:28,284 --> 00:48:31,321
Don't thank me. You deserved
the award and the scholarship.

470
00:48:31,484 --> 00:48:33,793
You are the best actor in the school.

471
00:48:33,964 --> 00:48:36,762
Well, you were the best actor
in the school.

472
00:48:36,924 --> 00:48:39,074
I mean, we'll miss you.

473
00:48:39,244 --> 00:48:40,518
Well, I'll miss you too.

474
00:48:40,764 --> 00:48:42,038
- You will ?
- Yeah, sure.

475
00:48:42,204 --> 00:48:44,434
- We'll keep in touch, I guess, huh ?
- Yeah.

476
00:48:44,844 --> 00:48:46,197
Would you sign my yearbook ?

477
00:48:46,364 --> 00:48:49,800
Yeah, all right. Do you
want me to sign my picture ?

478
00:48:49,964 --> 00:48:52,478
- That'd be great.
- Oh, okay.

479
00:48:53,004 --> 00:48:55,074
- I forgot. What's your name ?
- Doris Finsecker.

480
00:48:55,244 --> 00:48:57,314
- Oh, right. Doris.
- But Doris is enough.

481
00:48:57,444 --> 00:48:58,433
Oh, okay.

482
00:48:58,604 --> 00:49:01,072
- Have you decided where you're going ?
- California.

483
00:49:01,244 --> 00:49:04,202
- I mean to college, the scholarship.
- I can't use it.

484
00:49:04,364 --> 00:49:07,003
- How come ?
- William Morris has got big plans for me.

485
00:49:07,164 --> 00:49:09,803
- They saw me in that Senior Day show.
- You're kidding ?

486
00:49:09,964 --> 00:49:12,922
- They wanna represent me.
- They're the biggest agents.

487
00:49:13,084 --> 00:49:15,075
- Yeah.
- Well, that's great !

488
00:49:16,324 --> 00:49:18,758
There's a couple of series
they think I'm right for.

489
00:49:18,924 --> 00:49:22,519
I've had a lot of really good meetings.
Everyone's very excited.

490
00:49:22,684 --> 00:49:25,244
That is so great !
I mean, Hollywood, that's like...

491
00:49:25,404 --> 00:49:30,762
Yeah. Well, here I go,
off into the sunset.

492
00:49:30,924 --> 00:49:33,074
Hey, good luck. Oh, sorry.

493
00:49:33,244 --> 00:49:36,839
I mean, break a leg,
or whatever they say.

494
00:49:39,244 --> 00:49:40,757
See you.

495
00:49:41,804 --> 00:49:43,556
Hey !

496
00:49:44,044 --> 00:49:45,477
We'll see you at Schwab's.

497
00:49:49,484 --> 00:49:50,997
Oh, God, Doris !

498
00:50:04,284 --> 00:50:06,354
She's new. I saw her arrive
in a limousine.

499
00:50:06,524 --> 00:50:08,754
A limousine ? No kidding ?

500
00:50:10,044 --> 00:50:13,241
- Man, I hope to fuck she's in drama.
- No way. Dance department.

501
00:50:13,404 --> 00:50:15,793
She's too beautiful. Look at that ass.

502
00:50:15,964 --> 00:50:19,957
- I don't know about her tits.
- What do you mean ? What kind of tits ?

503
00:50:22,524 --> 00:50:24,833
- Tits... Pointy ones ?
- She looks kind of flat.

504
00:50:25,004 --> 00:50:26,198
She's fucking gorgeous !

505
00:50:26,364 --> 00:50:28,514
Little-bitty ones
with nips like raisins ?

506
00:50:28,684 --> 00:50:30,993
She's turning around. Look at that ass.

507
00:50:31,164 --> 00:50:34,042
- Oh, she is a dancer.
- Let me up. Let me up !

508
00:50:38,444 --> 00:50:40,833
Let me see, you fuckers.

509
00:50:49,804 --> 00:50:52,602
Last year, we worked
on simple observations.

510
00:50:52,844 --> 00:50:57,235
This year, we're going to turn
that observation inward...

511
00:50:57,404 --> 00:51:00,123
...and work on re-creating
emotional states :

512
00:51:00,284 --> 00:51:04,038
Fear, joy, sorrow, anger.

513
00:51:04,204 --> 00:51:09,198
And it'll be more difficult because you'll
have to expose more of you...

514
00:51:09,364 --> 00:51:12,037
...what's on the inside of you.

515
00:51:12,204 --> 00:51:15,002
For your first acting exercise
this year, I want you...

516
00:51:15,164 --> 00:51:18,361
...to re-create a difficult memory...

517
00:51:18,524 --> 00:51:22,995
...a painful moment when you learned
something about yourself that hurt.

518
00:51:23,164 --> 00:51:26,440
And I mean really hurt.

519
00:51:26,604 --> 00:51:28,595
And reach.

520
00:51:29,404 --> 00:51:32,362
And through. And drop.

521
00:51:32,524 --> 00:51:34,833
And back.

522
00:51:40,604 --> 00:51:42,720
Hi, I'm Lisa Monroe.

523
00:51:43,884 --> 00:51:45,158
Hilary van Doren.

524
00:51:45,484 --> 00:51:46,758
I love your coat.

525
00:51:46,924 --> 00:51:48,482
I saw that in Bendel's window.

526
00:51:49,564 --> 00:51:53,159
- My stepmother bought it for me.
- Really ?

527
00:51:53,324 --> 00:51:56,202
I wouldn't mind that kind of stepmother.

528
00:51:56,844 --> 00:52:00,519
She didn't do it for me.
She wants my father to think she cares.

529
00:52:00,684 --> 00:52:03,323
Besides, she loves shopping.

530
00:52:03,484 --> 00:52:06,601
She gets multiple orgasm
every time she buys something.

531
00:52:07,084 --> 00:52:09,154
Sounds great. I think I like her.

532
00:52:09,324 --> 00:52:10,598
You can have her.

533
00:52:11,004 --> 00:52:14,360
- Where's all the sweat, Lisa ?
- I'm working on it.

534
00:52:14,844 --> 00:52:17,074
You're not working on it hard enough.

535
00:52:17,244 --> 00:52:19,200
Get rid of the gum.

536
00:52:30,044 --> 00:52:31,523
Watch me.

537
00:52:33,964 --> 00:52:35,875
Lift the bow off the string, Martelli.

538
00:52:36,364 --> 00:52:38,355
Mozart wouldn't do this today.

539
00:52:38,524 --> 00:52:40,594
- Do what ?
- This bowing business.

540
00:52:40,764 --> 00:52:42,641
He'd plug his keyboard into an amp...

541
00:52:42,804 --> 00:52:45,876
...and he'd have string quartets
coming out of his fingers.

542
00:52:46,204 --> 00:52:49,321
And who would play all these
science-fiction symphonies ?

543
00:52:49,884 --> 00:52:52,034
- He would.
- All by himself ?

544
00:52:52,444 --> 00:52:55,959
He'd overdub and mix, of course.
He wouldn't make the same old noise.

545
00:52:56,124 --> 00:52:57,955
- Noise ?
- He'd sound electric.

546
00:52:58,124 --> 00:53:02,242
He'd have spacier strings and horns
and computerized bassoons.

547
00:53:02,684 --> 00:53:05,596
- One man is not an orchestra.
- Who needs orchestras ?

548
00:53:05,764 --> 00:53:09,882
You can do it all with a keyboard,
an amp and enough power.

549
00:53:10,444 --> 00:53:12,719
You're going to play all by yourself ?

550
00:53:12,884 --> 00:53:14,283
You don't need anybody else.

551
00:53:14,684 --> 00:53:18,120
That's not music, Martelli.
That's masturbation.

552
00:53:20,044 --> 00:53:22,604
See, I'm not naturally graceful.

553
00:53:22,924 --> 00:53:24,960
Grace doesn't run in our family.

554
00:53:25,124 --> 00:53:28,912
It's our genes. I've had to work
so hard to come this far.

555
00:53:29,084 --> 00:53:31,882
- God, I've been at it since I was 4.
- Me too.

556
00:53:32,044 --> 00:53:33,955
I started out with tap and stuff.

557
00:53:34,124 --> 00:53:37,958
Then my mom kept buying me pretty
ballet tutus, and I got hooked on it.

558
00:53:38,124 --> 00:53:40,843
Less lip, Monroe ! More sweat !

559
00:53:41,404 --> 00:53:43,634
- She's just a bitch.
- She hates me.

560
00:53:43,804 --> 00:53:47,353
This is a dance class, Lisa,
not the Charles Atlas plan.

561
00:53:47,644 --> 00:53:50,841
- Shut your mouth.
- Where are your tights ?

562
00:53:51,084 --> 00:53:53,075
I told you I got them.
I just forgot them.

563
00:53:53,244 --> 00:53:54,836
What's he talking about ?

564
00:53:55,004 --> 00:53:57,074
Tights. He won't wear them.

565
00:53:58,364 --> 00:54:02,915
Look, Leroy, I told you, if you don't have
tights, you don't dance. Now go !

566
00:54:06,524 --> 00:54:08,640
Oh, I love your accent.
What did you say ?

567
00:54:08,804 --> 00:54:10,362
I dig his black ass.

568
00:54:10,524 --> 00:54:14,836
- It's taken, Goldilocks.
- Don't count on it.

569
00:54:24,924 --> 00:54:26,198
A painful memory.

570
00:54:26,364 --> 00:54:29,003
What does he mean by
a painful memory ?

571
00:54:29,164 --> 00:54:31,473
I don't know. I can't find
a painful memory.

572
00:54:31,644 --> 00:54:32,997
I know I have them.

573
00:54:33,164 --> 00:54:35,962
I mean, my pain's as good
as anybody else's.

574
00:54:36,124 --> 00:54:39,241
I have lots of them. You can borrow
one of mine if you want.

575
00:54:39,404 --> 00:54:43,875
Like, I used to wet my bed. There, that
was painful. You can have that memory.

576
00:54:44,044 --> 00:54:45,318
No, thank you.

577
00:54:45,484 --> 00:54:49,318
Then there was the last time my father
packed his bags and left us.

578
00:54:49,484 --> 00:54:51,315
That really was painful.

579
00:54:51,484 --> 00:54:57,002
Or the first time my mother flew to L.A.
and didn't come back for six weeks.

580
00:54:57,244 --> 00:54:59,963
Or the first time I fell in love.

581
00:55:00,124 --> 00:55:02,433
Where'd that come from ?

582
00:55:03,004 --> 00:55:04,995
I'll buy you a cup of coffee.

583
00:56:37,804 --> 00:56:39,396
You're gonna tell everybody that ?

584
00:56:40,044 --> 00:56:42,433
It's the most painful memory
I can think of.

585
00:56:42,604 --> 00:56:45,243
He didn't say the most painful.
He just said painful.

586
00:56:45,404 --> 00:56:49,238
- We're supposed to expose ourselves.
- Imagine what Ralph Garci will say.

587
00:56:49,564 --> 00:56:53,876
A pie in the face comes with the job.
That's what my mom says. She knows.

588
00:56:54,044 --> 00:56:55,238
I don't get it.

589
00:56:55,404 --> 00:56:59,283
A real artist must never be afraid of
what other people will say about him.

590
00:56:59,444 --> 00:57:02,117
It was a time when I realized
something about myself.

591
00:57:02,364 --> 00:57:05,083
- Maybe you didn't realize it right.
- What do you mean ?

592
00:57:05,324 --> 00:57:08,953
Well, I mean, everybody falls in love
with their analyst.

593
00:57:09,244 --> 00:57:11,804
There's a word for that, isn't there ?

594
00:57:11,964 --> 00:57:14,353
Homosexual.

595
00:58:07,964 --> 00:58:09,636
That's my music.

596
00:58:09,804 --> 00:58:11,556
That lunatic stole my tape.

597
00:58:20,924 --> 00:58:22,323
Wow, that's me.

598
00:58:23,644 --> 00:58:29,002
That's my son's music !
My son Bruno. Bruno Martelli !

599
00:58:29,164 --> 00:58:33,077
He wrote the music.
Today, 46th Street...

600
00:58:33,244 --> 00:58:36,395
...tomorrow, Madison Square Garden.

601
00:58:41,644 --> 00:58:44,477
- Papa, what are you doing ?
- Bruno !

602
00:58:44,644 --> 00:58:47,875
You've lost your mind. You're crazy.
Those tapes aren't ready.

603
00:58:48,044 --> 00:58:51,241
Look at the people.
They don't know it's not ready.

604
00:58:51,404 --> 00:58:55,283
Look at it, they like it !
Bruno, they like it ! Bruno !

605
00:59:23,564 --> 00:59:26,397
- Hey, yo !
- Huh ?

606
00:59:26,564 --> 00:59:30,273
Move your fucking parade !
What do you think this is, 5th Avenue ?

607
00:59:30,444 --> 00:59:32,196
Back it up !

608
00:59:32,364 --> 00:59:38,234
I'll get your ass, buddy !
Who do you think you are ?

609
00:59:45,004 --> 00:59:47,757
You're next, you hear me ?

610
00:59:47,924 --> 00:59:50,563
Get away from there.
What are you doing ?

611
00:59:50,724 --> 00:59:52,203
How do you like that ?

612
00:59:52,364 --> 00:59:54,559
Pick that up, you son of a bitch !

613
01:00:29,797 --> 01:00:32,994
I thought I was just
going through a stage.

614
01:00:34,277 --> 01:00:36,427
That's what everyone told me.

615
01:00:36,597 --> 01:00:39,509
And it never
worried me when I was 10.

616
01:00:40,477 --> 01:00:44,993
Except they told me the same thing
at 12 and 14.

617
01:00:47,757 --> 01:00:52,785
So finally, my analyst
leveled with me.

618
01:00:53,037 --> 01:00:56,473
He said it was probably a life choice.

619
01:01:02,157 --> 01:01:04,034
It's funny.

620
01:01:05,877 --> 01:01:10,746
"Gay" used to mean
such a happy kind of word once.

621
01:01:12,437 --> 01:01:17,557
Not that it bothers me.
I'm pretty well-adjusted, really.

622
01:01:19,437 --> 01:01:21,393
I mean...

623
01:01:24,157 --> 01:01:26,910
...never being happy...

624
01:01:27,277 --> 01:01:30,587
...isn't the same as being unhappy.

625
01:01:30,837 --> 01:01:32,907
Is it ?

626
01:01:35,237 --> 01:01:38,434
Dr Golden explains it real well.

627
01:01:39,637 --> 01:01:41,434
He explains everything well.

628
01:01:45,437 --> 01:01:46,916
I've had a lot of help.

629
01:01:57,837 --> 01:02:01,796
Hey, Doris, you wanna go to
The Rocky Horror Show tomorrow night ?

630
01:02:01,957 --> 01:02:03,151
That sounds great.

631
01:02:03,317 --> 01:02:07,390
It starts at midnight, so you better
check it out with your mom.

632
01:02:07,557 --> 01:02:11,232
Calling Montgomery MacNeil.

633
01:02:11,397 --> 01:02:14,355
Oh, Montgomery.

634
01:02:20,517 --> 01:02:23,554
I suppose that a fuck
is out of the question ?

635
01:02:23,717 --> 01:02:26,550
There he is, Ralph Garci,
right on the button.

636
01:02:26,717 --> 01:02:28,753
- Nice.
- Get off !

637
01:02:28,917 --> 01:02:33,786
- I warned you this would happen.
- It's your case, man. I don't give a fuck.

638
01:02:33,957 --> 01:02:36,915
- It's a joke, that's all. It just came out.
- Like me.

639
01:02:37,077 --> 01:02:41,229
Yeah. Hey, Doris, listen,
I meant to tell you.

640
01:02:41,397 --> 01:02:45,470
There's an open call for a movie
at the Diplomat Hotel.

641
01:02:45,637 --> 01:02:48,868
- Oh, yeah ?
- They're looking for your type.

642
01:02:49,037 --> 01:02:51,676
- What's my type ?
- You know, your type.

643
01:02:51,837 --> 01:02:56,035
- Irishy, Jewishy, paranoid.
- What's the name of this movie ?

644
01:02:56,197 --> 01:03:00,349
- I was a Teenage Fag Hag.
- You shit !

645
01:03:03,717 --> 01:03:04,706
Stop it !

646
01:03:04,877 --> 01:03:07,596
I never knew it would
be like this, Doris.

647
01:03:07,757 --> 01:03:11,636
Oh, come closer, sweetheart.
Oh, my, such embrace.

648
01:03:16,957 --> 01:03:19,869
The Silvermans know
some very important people.

649
01:03:20,037 --> 01:03:23,712
They really have connections.
They're mishpoche with Soupy Sales.

650
01:03:23,877 --> 01:03:26,596
Oh, listen.
Your nice white blouse is ironed.

651
01:03:26,757 --> 01:03:30,033
Or you could wear your pink dress
with the ribbons.

652
01:03:30,197 --> 01:03:33,109
- You look so pretty in that.
- I hate that pink dress.

653
01:03:33,277 --> 01:03:35,996
- So don't wear your pink dress.
- I'm not going, Mama !

654
01:03:36,197 --> 01:03:38,074
- Then gargle.
- I'm going out to dinner !

655
01:03:38,237 --> 01:03:40,990
- It's a catered affair.
- It's not the food !

656
01:03:41,237 --> 01:03:43,467
This is an opportunity to perform.

657
01:03:43,637 --> 01:03:46,515
- Take advantage of it.
- I promised Montgomery !

658
01:03:46,677 --> 01:03:49,555
Well, I promised the Silvermans !

659
01:03:52,437 --> 01:03:56,112
It's a party, Doris.
They need a singer.

660
01:03:56,277 --> 01:04:00,953
And you, you need exposure.
So you're going.

661
01:04:01,437 --> 01:04:03,348
I'm not !

662
01:04:47,757 --> 01:04:51,352
Very good, Doris.
What did you realize about yourself ?

663
01:04:53,237 --> 01:04:57,230
I don't like birthday parties.
Or pink dresses.

664
01:04:58,157 --> 01:05:01,354
Or the Silvermans. Or Brooklyn.

665
01:05:01,517 --> 01:05:03,906
Or even being Jewish.

666
01:05:04,197 --> 01:05:05,789
I mean, it's not bad...

667
01:05:06,477 --> 01:05:08,866
...but it's not all I am.

668
01:05:09,037 --> 01:05:13,235
I don't know who I am,
and I never will if I don't assert myself.

669
01:05:13,397 --> 01:05:17,709
I'm 16 years old.
I've got to assert myself sometime.

670
01:05:20,037 --> 01:05:21,709
Don't I ?

671
01:05:22,117 --> 01:05:24,153
Okay, Doris. Ralph ?

672
01:05:26,077 --> 01:05:28,830
I was coming home from
school one day.

673
01:05:28,997 --> 01:05:30,191
As usual.

674
01:05:30,917 --> 01:05:35,672
I had a couple of pieces of business
to attend to in the neighborhood.

675
01:05:36,797 --> 01:05:38,867
It was January.

676
01:05:39,357 --> 01:05:41,666
It was snowing like crazy.

677
01:05:44,357 --> 01:05:47,394
Santa Claus just ripped
everybody off.

678
01:05:47,877 --> 01:05:50,835
He split for Toy Town or Igloo City...

679
01:05:50,997 --> 01:05:54,114
...or the North Pole
or wherever the hell he goes.

680
01:05:56,677 --> 01:05:58,713
So anyway...

681
01:05:59,877 --> 01:06:02,755
...I was going home, and...

682
01:06:04,877 --> 01:06:06,868
...I found this note.

683
01:06:07,277 --> 01:06:09,745
It said my two chicks were in church.

684
01:06:09,917 --> 01:06:13,148
What the hell are my two chicks
doing in church ?

685
01:06:14,437 --> 01:06:16,667
Somebody die or something ?

686
01:06:18,957 --> 01:06:23,587
That was... That was a joke.
That was supposed to be a joke.

687
01:06:30,117 --> 01:06:33,507
Anyway, I went home.

688
01:06:36,277 --> 01:06:41,271
I dropped a little incense like
I always do, just to unwind a little bit.

689
01:06:43,717 --> 01:06:46,277
And I put on the TV set.

690
01:06:49,077 --> 01:06:52,114
And there was
this guy on the TV.

691
01:06:55,197 --> 01:06:57,711
And he was talking
about Freddie.

692
01:07:00,917 --> 01:07:04,671
He... He said that...

693
01:07:06,277 --> 01:07:11,829
He said that Freddie Prinze
put a gun to his head...

694
01:07:11,997 --> 01:07:15,956
...and he killed himself.

695
01:07:19,357 --> 01:07:22,554
You know, it was an accident, man.

696
01:07:24,077 --> 01:07:27,706
Shit, I mean, he was fucking...
He was very gifted.

697
01:07:28,717 --> 01:07:33,711
You always laughed at him
because he was very fucking talented.

698
01:07:36,877 --> 01:07:40,586
And sometimes you didn't even
wanna laugh at him...

699
01:07:40,757 --> 01:07:42,748
...and you laughed at him anyway.

700
01:07:43,597 --> 01:07:45,633
But those motherfuckers...

701
01:07:45,797 --> 01:07:48,516
...they had to say that
he was depressed...

702
01:07:48,677 --> 01:07:52,113
...and he was suicidal,
and that he was fucked up.

703
01:07:52,277 --> 01:07:56,828
They wanted his fucking ass, man.
They wanted to nail his ass.

704
01:07:56,997 --> 01:08:00,956
Because he didn't think living
was such a happy trip, you know ?

705
01:08:02,557 --> 01:08:05,947
We can't have happy people
walking on this planet.

706
01:08:06,117 --> 01:08:09,029
Everybody's gotta be
so goddamn serious.

707
01:08:09,197 --> 01:08:11,552
Everyone's gotta stay in business...

708
01:08:11,717 --> 01:08:16,029
...and suffer so the witch doctors
and the deodorant-spray people...

709
01:08:16,197 --> 01:08:19,314
...and plastic surgeons
could stay in business.

710
01:08:19,477 --> 01:08:23,231
And we can all go fucking pray
to the asshole God up there...

711
01:08:23,397 --> 01:08:26,309
...that fucked it up
in the first place !

712
01:08:30,757 --> 01:08:34,591
Does all this make you
realize anything about yourself ?

713
01:08:34,877 --> 01:08:38,267
- What ?
- How does it affect you ?

714
01:08:39,357 --> 01:08:41,587
How does it affect me ?

715
01:08:42,557 --> 01:08:45,310
I'm here,
and I'm in this fucking school.

716
01:08:45,477 --> 01:08:48,389
And I'm fucking everybody back
for Freddie !

717
01:08:48,557 --> 01:08:50,309
Take it easy, Ralph.

718
01:08:50,477 --> 01:08:53,674
You want them laughing
with you, not at you.

719
01:08:53,997 --> 01:08:55,988
I don't want them laughing.

720
01:09:07,877 --> 01:09:09,390
Leroy ?

721
01:09:10,077 --> 01:09:11,066
Ma'am ?

722
01:09:11,557 --> 01:09:13,707
What are you wearing, Leroy ?

723
01:09:14,117 --> 01:09:16,995
- A hat.
- On your feet, Leroy.

724
01:09:17,157 --> 01:09:21,150
Oh, those. You like them ? They get me
to class quicker, get more learning in.

725
01:09:21,317 --> 01:09:24,036
- What about your book report ?
- I done it.

726
01:09:24,197 --> 01:09:27,234
- You did it.
- 1,000 words. I counted them too.

727
01:09:27,397 --> 01:09:30,753
- The Best of Playboy isn't a book report.
- It's reading, ain't it ?

728
01:09:30,917 --> 01:09:35,672
So is 1984, Huckleberry Finn,
Great Expectations. You heard of those ?

729
01:09:35,837 --> 01:09:37,634
I seen a couple of the movies.

730
01:09:37,797 --> 01:09:40,834
If you don't read,
you're missing so much.

731
01:09:40,997 --> 01:09:46,549
- I don't like reading. It's not my style.
- Then try Othello. He's black.

732
01:09:46,797 --> 01:09:49,948
- 1,000 words in two weeks.
- Or what ?

733
01:09:50,117 --> 01:09:53,746
Or you'll skate right out of
this school, Mr Johnson.

734
01:10:09,597 --> 01:10:11,269
Come in.

735
01:10:13,157 --> 01:10:17,150
- Miss Berg, you wanted to see me ?
- Come and sit down, Lisa.

736
01:10:23,237 --> 01:10:25,876
You're not working hard enough, Lisa.

737
01:10:26,357 --> 01:10:28,996
Well, I've been sick.

738
01:10:29,357 --> 01:10:31,712
Dancers don't get sick.

739
01:10:32,397 --> 01:10:34,115
Well, my doctor told me...

740
01:10:34,277 --> 01:10:37,792
...to take it easy
for a week or two until I feel okay.

741
01:10:37,957 --> 01:10:42,075
- So now it's the doctor's fault ?
- Don't you believe me ?

742
01:10:42,237 --> 01:10:43,670
I believe you, Lisa.

743
01:10:43,877 --> 01:10:47,586
But I don't have room
for you in this class anymore.

744
01:10:47,757 --> 01:10:50,066
But I brought a doctor's note.

745
01:10:50,237 --> 01:10:53,946
There are too many other girls
who take dance seriously...

746
01:10:54,117 --> 01:10:57,268
...to waste time and space
on someone who isn't dedicated.

747
01:10:57,437 --> 01:11:01,430
- But I am dedicated.
- I'm sorry, Lisa. I don't see it.

748
01:11:02,237 --> 01:11:04,831
I got into this school, didn't I ?

749
01:11:04,997 --> 01:11:08,512
We made a mistake.
Sometimes it just doesn't work out.

750
01:11:08,677 --> 01:11:11,749
- You'll get over it.
- I'll work harder.

751
01:11:11,917 --> 01:11:14,590
- Maybe.
- I promise I'll be better.

752
01:11:14,757 --> 01:11:16,827
Better isn't good enough.

753
01:11:16,997 --> 01:11:21,115
I don't think you'll ever
be good enough. You don't have it.

754
01:11:21,277 --> 01:11:26,351
That's a hard thing to hear, and it's not
pleasant to say, but it's the truth.

755
01:11:26,517 --> 01:11:30,226
I'm saving you a lot of time and pain
by saying it now.

756
01:11:30,717 --> 01:11:33,390
I don't wanna be the best.

757
01:11:34,117 --> 01:11:37,154
- Well, you won't be.
- I just wanna dance.

758
01:11:38,437 --> 01:11:43,465
- Well, you'll never be a Mikhail, Lisa.
- I can't fail, Miss Berg.

759
01:11:43,637 --> 01:11:47,710
- I only ever wanted to be a dancer.
- You'll get over it.

760
01:11:47,877 --> 01:11:52,871
- What do I tell my mother ?
- Have her call me and I'll explain.

761
01:13:18,357 --> 01:13:21,952
Fuck it. If I can't dance,
I'll change to the drama department.

762
01:13:22,437 --> 01:13:25,634
I tell you,
you're a fucking good actress.

763
01:13:31,997 --> 01:13:35,228
I heard the bitch came down
on her real hard.

764
01:13:35,397 --> 01:13:38,867
- So ? Life comes down hard.
- She just took a real bad dump, kid.

765
01:13:40,837 --> 01:13:44,830
Better she realizes it now
than OD in some motel room at 30.

766
01:13:44,997 --> 01:13:47,636
You might show
a little more sympathy, dear.

767
01:13:47,957 --> 01:13:50,949
- I'm not "dear".
- Évidemment.

768
01:13:51,117 --> 01:13:53,347
You're not très sensitive either.

769
01:13:53,637 --> 01:13:54,831
I'm a professional.

770
01:13:54,997 --> 01:13:58,546
A few unkind words aren't
going to bother me none.

771
01:13:59,037 --> 01:14:03,553
- I know it won't all be standing ovations.
- Certainly not for you, my dear.

772
01:14:04,197 --> 01:14:06,586
Look, I'm not "my dear".
You can fuck "my dear".

773
01:14:06,757 --> 01:14:10,830
Well, thank you. That might be fun.

774
01:14:13,597 --> 01:14:17,715
And that might be impossible.
He's not into vanilla.

775
01:14:17,877 --> 01:14:19,833
Might be a nice change
from black cherry.

776
01:14:19,997 --> 01:14:23,228
The darker the berry,
the sweeter the juice, honey.

777
01:14:23,397 --> 01:14:26,867
Yes, but who wants diabetes ?

778
01:14:31,197 --> 01:14:34,587
I mean, you don't understand.
Listen to me, man.

779
01:14:34,757 --> 01:14:38,113
Diction. Watch your diction, Ralph.
You're slurring your words.

780
01:14:38,277 --> 01:14:42,907
Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
Marlon Brando slurred his words.

781
01:14:43,077 --> 01:14:46,228
Montgomery Clift and
James Dean slurred their words.

782
01:14:46,397 --> 01:14:50,356
They were the greatest actors in the
world. Nobody could understand them.

783
01:14:51,517 --> 01:14:53,747
Wait a second. What's so funny ?

784
01:15:04,677 --> 01:15:08,431
Hey, it's Raul.
Where's my two chicks, huh ?

785
01:15:15,717 --> 01:15:19,312
Look at you ! You got so big !
Where is Mom ? Is she home ?

786
01:15:47,277 --> 01:15:49,427
Hey, cupcake. Come here, cupcake.

787
01:15:49,597 --> 01:15:53,272
Faggot.
That's what you are now, man.

788
01:15:53,637 --> 01:15:56,435
What you doing ? Whoa ! Damn, man.

789
01:16:39,197 --> 01:16:42,394
Martelli ! Bruno Martelli !

790
01:16:45,077 --> 01:16:46,715
Shit !

791
01:16:52,197 --> 01:16:55,553
In the beginning
she's not in love with him...

792
01:16:55,717 --> 01:16:57,787
- God, you live here, Montgomery ?
- Yeah.

793
01:16:57,957 --> 01:17:00,312
- This is a great pad.
- You like it ?

794
01:17:00,477 --> 01:17:03,867
It's great. What happened to all
your furniture ? You get ripped off ?

795
01:17:04,037 --> 01:17:06,551
- It closed in Cincinnati.
- What's that mean ?

796
01:17:06,717 --> 01:17:10,107
My mom kept saying she was gonna
fix it up when she got into a long run.

797
01:17:10,277 --> 01:17:12,837
- She's got a lousy choice in plays.
- It's perfect.

798
01:17:12,997 --> 01:17:17,468
We don't need nothing for rehearsal.
Ready when you are, Mr Director.

799
01:17:17,637 --> 01:17:21,949
- All right, page one, Act 1 .
- All right, page one, Act 1 .

800
01:17:55,237 --> 01:17:57,432
Raul ?

801
01:18:22,277 --> 01:18:24,347
Raul ?

802
01:18:38,117 --> 01:18:42,588
If you're kicked around long enough,
you get to be a real professor of pain.

803
01:18:42,757 --> 01:18:46,511
I know how you feel.
But I'm having a real good time now.

804
01:18:46,677 --> 01:18:48,190
I'm enjoying myself.

805
01:18:48,357 --> 01:18:51,235
So you see, you're not such
a dog as you think you are.

806
01:18:51,397 --> 01:18:53,467
I'm having a very good time too.

807
01:18:53,637 --> 01:18:57,312
So there you are. I'm not such a dog
as I think I am.

808
01:18:57,477 --> 01:18:59,547
I think you're a very nice guy.

809
01:18:59,717 --> 01:19:03,107
I don't know why
a girl hasn't grabbed you.

810
01:19:03,277 --> 01:19:07,589
Yeah, I don't either. I am a nice guy.

811
01:19:07,837 --> 01:19:10,556
I'm also a real smart guy too.

812
01:19:18,357 --> 01:19:22,589
Wait. There's a whole speech yet.
You're not supposed to kiss yet.

813
01:19:25,237 --> 01:19:29,788
Ralph. Doris. Ralph, you have a whole
speech here you haven't even done.

814
01:19:29,957 --> 01:19:32,630
Ralph, you're not supposed to kiss yet.

815
01:19:39,557 --> 01:19:42,276
My mother was French
and very beautiful.

816
01:19:42,437 --> 01:19:47,875
Straight out of some chateau.
She danced every night for hours.

817
01:19:48,037 --> 01:19:51,871
Daddy was in Washington
or out to dinner with clients...

818
01:19:52,037 --> 01:19:55,393
...while Mom was with Tchaikovsky,
Ravel, Mantovani.

819
01:19:55,557 --> 01:19:59,106
You'll meet my stepmother, Claudia.
Trainee witch.

820
01:19:59,277 --> 01:20:02,747
No cracks about being Chinese.
She's had her eyes fixed.

821
01:20:02,917 --> 01:20:06,273
She recuperated in Palm Springs,
where she had her purse stolen.

822
01:20:06,437 --> 01:20:09,076
She lost all her credit cards.

823
01:20:09,597 --> 01:20:14,068
Dad doesn't want to report it, though.
The thief is spending less than she did.

824
01:20:21,517 --> 01:20:23,348
Hi, Daddy.

825
01:20:24,997 --> 01:20:26,316
Hi.

826
01:20:26,917 --> 01:20:29,954
Oh, this is Leroy. Homework.

827
01:23:39,797 --> 01:23:43,153
That was nice. Really.

828
01:23:43,557 --> 01:23:46,196
Sentimental shit.

829
01:23:47,077 --> 01:23:49,466
That was beautiful !

830
01:23:50,597 --> 01:23:53,634
That was beautiful.

831
01:23:53,997 --> 01:23:56,147
It was beautiful.

832
01:24:03,477 --> 01:24:06,913
- Yeah, this is it here.
- You live here ?

833
01:24:07,077 --> 01:24:09,796
My sister lives here.
I'm always welcome.

834
01:24:09,957 --> 01:24:11,436
- Very nice place.
- Yeah.

835
01:24:11,597 --> 01:24:15,385
They're very fancy, huh ?
I'll wait till you get inside.

836
01:24:15,557 --> 01:24:17,673
No. It's okay. Really.

837
01:24:17,837 --> 01:24:20,067
- Okay.
- It's a good neighborhood.

838
01:24:20,237 --> 01:24:24,310
- It's not much, but...
- Please, come on. That's not necessary.

839
01:24:24,477 --> 01:24:25,876
I should pay you.

840
01:24:26,037 --> 01:24:30,189
You know, I play your tapes
for my customers, you know.

841
01:24:30,357 --> 01:24:35,670
They love that stuff.
My tips go up 20%, at least.

842
01:24:36,517 --> 01:24:40,192
- And my son is happy.
- He's writing some good shit too.

843
01:24:40,357 --> 01:24:43,872
We're gonna be all over the charts
one of these days.

844
01:24:44,037 --> 01:24:48,474
- You make him happy, you know that ?
- We're a hot team, you know.

845
01:24:48,637 --> 01:24:53,153
- You make him hotter. You know ?
- Sure.

846
01:24:53,317 --> 01:24:58,027
I seem to have that effect on people.
What can I do ? Thanks again.

847
01:24:58,197 --> 01:25:00,665
- Good night, Bruno.
- Night. Take it easy.

848
01:26:23,157 --> 01:26:24,590
You're crazy.

849
01:26:24,997 --> 01:26:26,112
You call a doctor ?

850
01:26:26,437 --> 01:26:27,552
I don't think she's hurt.

851
01:26:27,837 --> 01:26:29,873
Since when are you
in the thinking business ?

852
01:26:30,237 --> 01:26:31,352
She's frightened.

853
01:26:31,637 --> 01:26:34,754
- She's 5 fucking years old !
- Please keep your voice down.

854
01:26:36,677 --> 01:26:40,067
- You're in a church, my son.
- You're in the Dark Ages !

855
01:26:40,997 --> 01:26:42,669
You kiss my ass, Padre.

856
01:26:43,317 --> 01:26:47,833
She needs a doctor ! A doctor !
Not the goddamn Holy Ghost !

857
01:27:11,597 --> 01:27:13,588
Is she all right ?

858
01:27:17,597 --> 01:27:20,350
You're not attacked by a creep
at 5 years old and all right.

859
01:27:20,797 --> 01:27:22,389
I'm sorry.

860
01:27:22,677 --> 01:27:25,316
Doris, I wasn't there !
I wasn't fucking there !

861
01:27:25,757 --> 01:27:26,872
What about your father ?

862
01:27:27,397 --> 01:27:29,627
I happen to be between
fathers right now.

863
01:27:29,797 --> 01:27:31,071
What does that mean ?

864
01:27:31,717 --> 01:27:33,708
You got to understand something.

865
01:27:34,277 --> 01:27:37,110
You got to understand
the Puerto Rican woman.

866
01:27:38,837 --> 01:27:40,509
She thinks about
the kids...

867
01:27:40,677 --> 01:27:44,636
...how they gotta have a father.
Love has nothing to do with it.

868
01:27:45,477 --> 01:27:47,627
My mom has an extra room.
She rents it out.

869
01:27:47,797 --> 01:27:50,595
Next thing you know,
I've got a new father.

870
01:27:56,197 --> 01:27:59,507
They're all right, mostly.
They may stay a day...

871
01:27:59,957 --> 01:28:02,790
...or a week or a month,
if we're lucky.

872
01:28:03,437 --> 01:28:05,632
Sometimes they even pay the rent.

873
01:28:07,717 --> 01:28:09,469
They keep out all the rats.

874
01:28:10,317 --> 01:28:13,195
Not animal-type rats.
I'm talking about real rats...

875
01:28:13,357 --> 01:28:14,995
...the junkies and the winos...

876
01:28:15,157 --> 01:28:18,547
...and the shitheads
and the people who beat up...

877
01:28:22,237 --> 01:28:24,705
...little 5-year-old kids.

878
01:28:28,277 --> 01:28:30,233
I got three sisters, see ?

879
01:28:31,917 --> 01:28:35,830
One of them, Maria, she's
in kind of a special place.

880
01:28:37,077 --> 01:28:40,956
We see her a couple times a year.
She's got a birth defect.

881
01:28:43,957 --> 01:28:46,630
That's a goddamn lie.

882
01:28:48,277 --> 01:28:50,837
That's a goddamn lie !

883
01:28:52,437 --> 01:28:55,076
Want to know about my father ?
My first fucking father ?

884
01:28:55,237 --> 01:28:57,307
He ain't no special shit.

885
01:28:58,597 --> 01:29:01,953
He's in New York State Penitentiary.
He's doing time.

886
01:29:03,197 --> 01:29:06,109
I remember this one night
he got bothered...

887
01:29:06,277 --> 01:29:09,633
...because I was making her laugh.
I was telling her stories.

888
01:29:10,077 --> 01:29:13,467
It was just kid stuff.
Flying carpets and dragons.

889
01:29:13,637 --> 01:29:16,595
And he got mad
because she was laughing !

890
01:29:17,157 --> 01:29:19,625
And he said I was telling her lies.

891
01:29:19,917 --> 01:29:21,430
And this one night...

892
01:29:22,677 --> 01:29:24,315
...he got bothered.

893
01:29:25,477 --> 01:29:27,786
He's beating me
and coming down on me...

894
01:29:27,957 --> 01:29:29,390
I said, "I make her laugh."

895
01:29:29,557 --> 01:29:32,594
That's not a lie, that's a gift,
goddamn it.

896
01:29:33,797 --> 01:29:35,833
He can't do it.

897
01:29:36,997 --> 01:29:41,115
He said if he can't do it,
he sure as shit's gonna stop it.

898
01:29:42,677 --> 01:29:44,986
And he went for me, and...

899
01:29:45,837 --> 01:29:48,670
...she got in the way
all of a sudden, and...

900
01:29:50,197 --> 01:29:52,791
...he put her head inside a fucking wall.

901
01:29:53,637 --> 01:29:56,788
If it was my fucking head,
it would've been all right...

902
01:29:56,957 --> 01:29:59,073
...but it wasn't. It was hers !

903
01:29:59,397 --> 01:30:03,390
If it was my fucking fat head,
it would've been all right.

904
01:30:04,997 --> 01:30:08,194
She's a beautiful kid.
She's 5 fucking years old.

905
01:30:08,437 --> 01:30:13,306
She's got a pretty little laugh.
She still laughs, as a matter of fact.

906
01:31:12,637 --> 01:31:14,707
Barbra Streisand didn't
change her name.

907
01:31:14,917 --> 01:31:18,432
- I don't want to talk about it.
- I'll call you Doris, like always.

908
01:31:18,597 --> 01:31:19,712
I won't answer.

909
01:31:19,877 --> 01:31:23,552
- It's a perfectly good name.
- For a perfectly good person.

910
01:31:23,717 --> 01:31:27,027
A skinny, boring, nondescript,
perfectly good person.

911
01:31:27,357 --> 01:31:32,511
I have a lot of friends named Doris,
and they are none of those things.

912
01:31:32,757 --> 01:31:34,827
- Yeah, but they're all...
- What ?

913
01:31:35,077 --> 01:31:37,147
No, no, no. Say it. Go ahead. Say it !

914
01:31:37,317 --> 01:31:41,549
I would like to know what my daughter
thinks is wrong with my friends.

915
01:31:41,717 --> 01:31:45,107
I don't want a middle-aged name.
I can't relate to it.

916
01:31:45,397 --> 01:31:46,830
You can call me Dominique.

917
01:31:46,997 --> 01:31:48,112
Dominique.

918
01:31:48,277 --> 01:31:50,507
- That's ridiculous.
- It's French.

919
01:31:50,677 --> 01:31:54,955
- I know what it is, but it's not you.
- I'll grow into it.

920
01:31:55,237 --> 01:31:58,547
- Dominique Finsecker ?
- No. Dominique Dupont.

921
01:31:59,117 --> 01:32:01,153
- Sounds like a hooker.
- Oh, Mama.

922
01:32:01,317 --> 01:32:05,071
I don't know what's happening to you.
Tell me what's happening to you.

923
01:32:05,477 --> 01:32:07,547
Where did my Doris go ?

924
01:32:07,877 --> 01:32:11,711
Something wonderful is happening
to me, Mama. I'm growing up.

925
01:32:12,877 --> 01:32:14,993
You're becoming somebody else.

926
01:32:15,277 --> 01:32:19,509
- I'm becoming an actress.
- I want you to be the Doris that I know.

927
01:32:19,677 --> 01:32:22,510
That I love. That helps
me with the groceries.

928
01:32:23,437 --> 01:32:25,393
Makes me birthday cards...

929
01:32:25,557 --> 01:32:27,866
...out of Cheerio packets, huh ?

930
01:32:28,477 --> 01:32:29,876
Not Dominique...

931
01:32:30,197 --> 01:32:32,153
...who stays out all night.

932
01:32:32,317 --> 01:32:33,636
Oh, Mama.

933
01:32:33,837 --> 01:32:35,555
And gets pregnant.

934
01:32:36,037 --> 01:32:38,312
Or has an abortion, God forbid.

935
01:32:40,037 --> 01:32:43,109
Now, Dominique, she'd be smart.

936
01:32:43,997 --> 01:32:45,635
But my Doris...

937
01:32:46,157 --> 01:32:48,113
...she's dumb enough
to get knocked up...

938
01:32:48,477 --> 01:32:50,672
Mama, it was just one night !

939
01:32:52,517 --> 01:32:54,075
That's all it takes.

940
01:33:05,037 --> 01:33:08,268
We'd like to welcome everyone to
The Rocky Horror Picture Show...

941
01:33:08,437 --> 01:33:10,746
...here at the 8th Street Playhouse !

942
01:33:15,717 --> 01:33:18,595
And our regulars would
like to wish a warm welcome...

943
01:33:18,757 --> 01:33:21,146
...to all you virgins !

944
01:33:24,717 --> 01:33:27,356
We have some special occasions tonight.

945
01:33:27,717 --> 01:33:30,185
Tonight is Gail's birthday.

946
01:33:34,277 --> 01:33:38,111
We have a special button
for a special young lady.

947
01:33:38,277 --> 01:33:42,316
Tonight is Christine's 150th time !

948
01:33:52,797 --> 01:33:54,753
Let's hear it for her ! Come on !

949
01:34:01,157 --> 01:34:04,115
Now, we have a special warning
from the management.

950
01:34:04,277 --> 01:34:07,189
No lit candles. No throwing
food at the screen. Understand ?

951
01:34:07,437 --> 01:34:08,665
Get on with the show !

952
01:34:09,197 --> 01:34:11,711
This is the fucking show !
If you don't like it...

953
01:34:11,877 --> 01:34:14,107
...you can go see the movie
in Staten Island !

954
01:34:14,277 --> 01:34:17,314
Boy, is he in for a surprise tonight.

955
01:34:17,677 --> 01:34:19,269
All right, for the cheers !

956
01:34:19,437 --> 01:34:21,109
- Give me an R !
- R !

957
01:34:21,357 --> 01:34:22,836
- Give me an O !
- O !

958
01:34:23,037 --> 01:34:24,356
- Give me a C !
- C !

959
01:34:24,517 --> 01:34:26,314
- Give me a K !
- K !

960
01:34:26,477 --> 01:34:27,796
- Give me a Y !
- Y !

961
01:34:28,037 --> 01:34:29,595
- What's it spell ?
- Rocky !

962
01:34:29,757 --> 01:34:31,873
- I can't hear you !
- Rocky !

963
01:34:32,117 --> 01:34:34,108
- One more time !
- Rocky !

964
01:34:34,277 --> 01:34:35,346
- Give me an E !
- E !

965
01:34:35,517 --> 01:34:36,996
- Give me an A !
- A !

966
01:34:37,157 --> 01:34:39,796
- What kind of time we gonna have ?
- E-A !

967
01:36:47,157 --> 01:36:49,307
Where did that
motorcyclist come from ?

968
01:36:49,477 --> 01:36:51,149
I guess we'll have to turn back.

969
01:36:57,437 --> 01:37:00,190
- What was that bang ?
- Must have a blowout.

970
01:37:00,757 --> 01:37:02,031
Damn it !

971
01:37:02,197 --> 01:37:06,110
- I should have gotten that spare fixed.
- Asshole !

972
01:37:06,277 --> 01:37:08,427
Stay here and keep warm.
I'll go for help.

973
01:37:08,597 --> 01:37:10,906
Where will you go
in the middle of nowhere ?

974
01:37:11,077 --> 01:37:14,433
What's white and sells hamburgers ?

975
01:37:14,597 --> 01:37:17,475
Didn't we pass a castle down the road ?

976
01:37:17,757 --> 01:37:19,748
Maybe they have a telephone.

977
01:37:19,917 --> 01:37:21,475
I'm going with you.

978
01:37:25,797 --> 01:37:27,947
Kick it !

979
01:37:31,877 --> 01:37:36,507
Hey, Janet ! How about fries
to go with that shake ?

980
01:37:40,557 --> 01:37:42,991
Take the risk !

981
01:37:49,637 --> 01:37:53,152
Hey, Riff, show us your mother !

982
01:38:10,437 --> 01:38:12,155
Watch the film.

983
01:38:42,077 --> 01:38:44,227
How's it go ?

984
01:39:00,237 --> 01:39:02,307
Oh, my God.

985
01:39:11,637 --> 01:39:13,548
- You did what ?
- I got stoned.

986
01:39:14,237 --> 01:39:16,512
She took her top off.
She played with her bongos.

987
01:39:16,957 --> 01:39:18,913
- I did not !
- It was incredible !

988
01:39:19,077 --> 01:39:21,033
It was more than incredible, it was fun.

989
01:39:21,197 --> 01:39:24,792
I felt naked when people looked at me
before. But they weren't looking at me...

990
01:39:24,957 --> 01:39:27,949
...they were looking at someone
I put on. Like a costume.

991
01:39:28,317 --> 01:39:32,674
If I don't have a personality, so what ?
I'm an actress.

992
01:39:32,877 --> 01:39:35,391
I can put on
as many personalities as I want.

993
01:39:35,557 --> 01:39:38,196
- To schizophrenia !
- Abso-fucking-lutely !

994
01:39:38,557 --> 01:39:42,152
- Abso-fucking-what ?
- You kids ready to order now ?

995
01:39:42,757 --> 01:39:44,475
- Michael ?
- Yeah.

996
01:39:44,997 --> 01:39:46,635
You don't remember ?

997
01:39:47,237 --> 01:39:49,307
Two years ago. I'm Doris Fin...

998
01:39:49,477 --> 01:39:52,992
...I was Doris Finsecker, when
you were a senior at P.A.

999
01:39:53,517 --> 01:39:57,351
- Yeah. Around the corner.
- You remember Montgomery MacNeil...

1000
01:39:57,517 --> 01:39:59,712
- ...and Ralph Garci.
- Sure. Good old days.

1001
01:40:00,277 --> 01:40:01,266
How was Hollywood ?

1002
01:40:01,717 --> 01:40:02,832
Slow.

1003
01:40:03,077 --> 01:40:05,796
I met some people,
went to some parties.

1004
01:40:06,197 --> 01:40:09,473
- I did a pilot for a series.
- I didn't see it.

1005
01:40:09,677 --> 01:40:11,076
Nobody saw it.

1006
01:40:11,437 --> 01:40:12,506
Sorry.

1007
01:40:13,157 --> 01:40:16,354
- I did a couple of days as a male nurse.
- Did you ?

1008
01:40:16,677 --> 01:40:18,474
On a soap.

1009
01:40:19,397 --> 01:40:21,957
- I didn't like L.A. too much.
- It sucks out there.

1010
01:40:22,317 --> 01:40:25,707
- Are you studying ?
- I catch a class when I can.

1011
01:40:25,877 --> 01:40:27,515
Hard times, you know ?

1012
01:40:28,357 --> 01:40:30,791
- I read for a showcase.
- Oh, really ?

1013
01:40:30,957 --> 01:40:32,834
I got a callback next week.

1014
01:40:33,157 --> 01:40:34,909
- Hope you get it.
- Hey, good luck.

1015
01:40:35,277 --> 01:40:36,312
Yeah.

1016
01:40:36,877 --> 01:40:37,946
Yeah.

1017
01:40:39,717 --> 01:40:41,036
What you kids having ?

1018
01:40:41,317 --> 01:40:43,512
Got a special today on fried clams.

1019
01:40:43,797 --> 01:40:46,914
- Fried clams sound great.
- Yeah, that's fine.

1020
01:40:47,797 --> 01:40:51,472
- Fried clams is great.
- Yeah, sounds good.

1021
01:40:55,557 --> 01:40:57,548
Welcome to Catch a Rising Star.

1022
01:40:58,837 --> 01:41:01,146
Did anybody know it was Monday night ?

1023
01:41:01,437 --> 01:41:05,032
Monday night is audition night.
Anybody from anywhere...

1024
01:41:05,197 --> 01:41:07,267
...can come up here and do
what they want.

1025
01:41:07,437 --> 01:41:09,871
You should see what walks in the room.

1026
01:41:10,037 --> 01:41:13,154
Some of the people that started here
were David Brenner,...

1027
01:41:13,317 --> 01:41:14,466
...Jimmie Walker,...

1028
01:41:14,677 --> 01:41:18,955
...Gabe Kaplan, Freddie Prinze.
Maybe this next young man might...

1029
01:41:19,357 --> 01:41:20,995
...watch them on television.

1030
01:41:21,637 --> 01:41:25,027
Please welcome the comedy stylings...

1031
01:41:25,277 --> 01:41:28,155
...of Ralph Garci, ladies and gentlemen.

1032
01:41:32,797 --> 01:41:34,867
Yay, Ralph !

1033
01:41:35,677 --> 01:41:36,666
Thank you.

1034
01:41:37,397 --> 01:41:40,195
Like Richard said,
my name is Ralph Garci.

1035
01:41:40,357 --> 01:41:42,154
I'm a professional asshole.

1036
01:41:45,357 --> 01:41:48,667
I see we have a few
amateurs in the audience.

1037
01:41:50,277 --> 01:41:51,346
I have some...

1038
01:41:51,517 --> 01:41:56,033
Some. I have all of my friends here
tonight. From P.A. graduating class.

1039
01:42:00,317 --> 01:42:02,706
It's very important to have friends.

1040
01:42:03,477 --> 01:42:05,149
I live in the South Bronx.

1041
01:42:06,837 --> 01:42:10,273
That's the country just north of Harlem
and west of Puerto Rico.

1042
01:42:10,437 --> 01:42:12,473
It's a very tough neighborhood.

1043
01:42:12,637 --> 01:42:14,229
The dogs carry knives.

1044
01:42:16,197 --> 01:42:18,916
Did you ever see a baby
with a zip gun ?

1045
01:42:19,597 --> 01:42:23,875
You gotta have friends. You can't
alienate anybody up there. Nobody.

1046
01:42:24,037 --> 01:42:27,552
Black people, white people, Chicanos,
Puerto Ricans, cockroaches.

1047
01:42:28,117 --> 01:42:30,836
You gotta respect cockroaches.
They got a good union.

1048
01:42:31,197 --> 01:42:35,395
Last week, 15,000 marched down my
block demanding better housing.

1049
01:42:37,477 --> 01:42:41,152
But I love the South Bronx.
Everywhere you go from there is up.

1050
01:42:42,157 --> 01:42:46,787
Everybody has dreams in the
South Bronx. I had dreams.

1051
01:42:47,157 --> 01:42:50,513
Stop your average boy
on a South Bronx street...

1052
01:42:51,277 --> 01:42:53,586
...and ask him
what he wants to be.

1053
01:42:53,957 --> 01:42:56,949
"I want to be an ex-junkie, man."

1054
01:42:57,997 --> 01:42:59,794
You can see them every day.

1055
01:42:59,957 --> 01:43:04,109
You can't drive because of the dreams
on the streets being seen by cokeheads.

1056
01:43:04,277 --> 01:43:09,112
The minute that white line's laid down
the street, you got somebody going :

1057
01:43:10,277 --> 01:43:11,346
It's true.

1058
01:43:12,837 --> 01:43:15,397
And then there is sex.

1059
01:43:16,517 --> 01:43:17,870
Oh, yeah.

1060
01:43:18,237 --> 01:43:20,831
Kids are into sex earlier in South Bronx.

1061
01:43:21,797 --> 01:43:23,389
Like about 6 a.m.

1062
01:43:27,637 --> 01:43:29,195
- You were wonderful.
- No.

1063
01:43:29,357 --> 01:43:32,190
- Really.
- I was good. I felt more than good.

1064
01:43:32,357 --> 01:43:34,348
- The guy wants me back.
- You're kidding !

1065
01:43:34,517 --> 01:43:36,155
He wants to book me regularly.

1066
01:43:36,317 --> 01:43:37,670
- Great !
- That's not great...

1067
01:43:37,837 --> 01:43:39,907
...it's fantastic ! It's like electricity.

1068
01:43:40,077 --> 01:43:43,513
You're out there. Those faces are
out there, staring at you...

1069
01:43:43,677 --> 01:43:46,953
...and you draw them in, then
you hit them with the juice.

1070
01:43:47,117 --> 01:43:51,156
And bam ! They fucking explode !
And that power goes back and forth.

1071
01:43:51,317 --> 01:43:53,706
Next thing you know,
you're making them laugh.

1072
01:43:53,877 --> 01:43:57,347
That is the meanest high there is.
That beats dope. That beats sex.

1073
01:43:57,757 --> 01:44:00,874
I love fucking acting !

1074
01:44:01,077 --> 01:44:04,433
With my money, we can get
a place. We can get married maybe.

1075
01:44:04,597 --> 01:44:08,670
I'll have $20,000 a week, a hit
TV series, my face on TV Guide !

1076
01:44:08,837 --> 01:44:09,906
- Wait !
- What ?

1077
01:44:10,077 --> 01:44:13,672
- What about me ? Don't I get a career ?
- A career ? I'll give you a career.

1078
01:44:13,877 --> 01:44:18,826
How about Shakespeare in the Park
and you get to win 17 Tony awards ?

1079
01:44:19,077 --> 01:44:21,875
- All right. Bye.
- All right. Okay. Bye.

1080
01:44:23,557 --> 01:44:25,149
Don't mug anybody.

1081
01:44:25,597 --> 01:44:28,509
- Don't rape anybody.
- I'll rape you.

1082
01:44:28,677 --> 01:44:29,996
Don't rape anybody, okay ?

1083
01:44:30,157 --> 01:44:31,715
I'll see you later. Take care.

1084
01:44:36,677 --> 01:44:37,871
You see...

1085
01:44:39,037 --> 01:44:42,268
...I've been offered this place
with the San Francisco Ballet.

1086
01:44:42,437 --> 01:44:45,395
I haven't told anyone yet,
but I'm gonna take it.

1087
01:44:45,557 --> 01:44:47,593
I don't care what they think.

1088
01:44:48,157 --> 01:44:50,466
I'm a good dancer. Better than good.

1089
01:44:50,717 --> 01:44:53,072
Maybe even the best in the school.

1090
01:44:53,917 --> 01:44:57,193
That's not conceit.
It's just simple honesty.

1091
01:44:58,317 --> 01:45:02,674
If I stay in New York, everybody will
think I bought my way into ABT.

1092
01:45:02,957 --> 01:45:07,872
I'm not starving myself to death
for Balanchine's City Ballet.

1093
01:45:08,997 --> 01:45:12,273
Not that I mind doing
the corps de ballet bullshit.

1094
01:45:12,837 --> 01:45:15,226
I'd sooner do it out of town.

1095
01:45:16,797 --> 01:45:19,265
I'll pay my dues on the West Coast.

1096
01:45:20,077 --> 01:45:22,750
Come back to New York as a star.

1097
01:45:25,437 --> 01:45:26,586
You see...

1098
01:45:27,397 --> 01:45:29,865
...I've always had this crazy dream...

1099
01:45:30,037 --> 01:45:33,632
...of dancing all the classical
roles before I'm 21 .

1100
01:45:35,237 --> 01:45:39,071
I want Giselles and Coppélias
coming out of my feet.

1101
01:45:39,597 --> 01:45:41,553
And Sleeping Beauties...

1102
01:45:41,997 --> 01:45:43,908
...and the Swan.

1103
01:45:45,477 --> 01:45:48,389
I want bravos in Stuttgart
and Leningrad...

1104
01:45:48,557 --> 01:45:50,070
...and Paris.

1105
01:45:51,277 --> 01:45:54,587
Maybe even a ballet
created especially for me.

1106
01:45:57,797 --> 01:45:59,230
You see...

1107
01:45:59,877 --> 01:46:02,596
...there's no room for a baby.

1108
01:46:03,517 --> 01:46:06,907
Will this be Master Charge
or American Express, honey ?

1109
01:46:15,357 --> 01:46:16,585
Excuse me.

1110
01:46:17,797 --> 01:46:19,469
You're an actress, aren't you ?

1111
01:46:19,837 --> 01:46:21,156
I might be.

1112
01:46:21,957 --> 01:46:23,709
A Chorus Line, right ?

1113
01:46:24,117 --> 01:46:27,666
Aren't you the one that does that
hot, smoky number in the red dress ?

1114
01:46:28,197 --> 01:46:30,870
I'm right, ain't I ? I knew it.

1115
01:46:31,397 --> 01:46:35,151
Boy, let me tell you, you are
the best thing in that show.

1116
01:46:36,717 --> 01:46:40,312
I guess you get tired of hearing that.
Excuse me.

1117
01:46:40,477 --> 01:46:41,956
No, I don't.

1118
01:46:43,397 --> 01:46:45,115
You don't belong there.

1119
01:46:45,437 --> 01:46:47,712
If you don't mind my
saying so, you're a star.

1120
01:46:47,877 --> 01:46:49,595
You need a show all to yourself.

1121
01:46:49,797 --> 01:46:53,949
- You've got a lovely face, a great figure.
- I sing too.

1122
01:46:54,117 --> 01:46:55,550
- No.
- And play the piano.

1123
01:46:55,837 --> 01:46:58,476
That's what I mean. But it's
more than just talent...

1124
01:46:58,637 --> 01:47:00,628
...it's a certain quality.

1125
01:47:00,837 --> 01:47:03,670
You're the kind of girl that
stands out in a room.

1126
01:47:03,877 --> 01:47:06,789
This might sound a little
presumptuous of me...

1127
01:47:07,597 --> 01:47:09,588
...I should probably
just call your agent.

1128
01:47:10,197 --> 01:47:14,315
- I don't really relate to agents.
- Don't blame you at all.

1129
01:47:14,557 --> 01:47:17,788
Listen, my name is François.
François Lafite.

1130
01:47:18,157 --> 01:47:19,146
Coco.

1131
01:47:19,517 --> 01:47:22,634
Coco ? Coco ? That's terrific !

1132
01:47:22,917 --> 01:47:26,830
Listen, Coco, I'm doing this picture
down in the south of France, you know ?

1133
01:47:27,517 --> 01:47:29,951
I was wondering if...

1134
01:47:30,757 --> 01:47:33,225
...maybe you'd like to do
a screen test for me.

1135
01:47:36,957 --> 01:47:38,356
Are you serious ?

1136
01:47:44,677 --> 01:47:46,110
Bunsky.

1137
01:47:46,557 --> 01:47:47,910
Hey, Bunsky.

1138
01:47:48,957 --> 01:47:49,992
You seen Sherwood ?

1139
01:47:50,197 --> 01:47:52,233
She's with her husband.

1140
01:47:52,397 --> 01:47:54,991
- I didn't know she had a husband.
- He's sick, Leroy.

1141
01:47:55,357 --> 01:47:57,075
He'd have to be to be her husband.

1142
01:47:57,237 --> 01:47:59,831
He's quite bad.
In the hospital, anyway.

1143
01:47:59,997 --> 01:48:01,794
- Hospital ?
- Apparently.

1144
01:48:02,317 --> 01:48:03,909
Okay, Schlepstein.

1145
01:48:30,557 --> 01:48:32,593
Leroy. What are you doing here ?

1146
01:48:35,797 --> 01:48:37,469
You ever heard of Alvin Ailey ?

1147
01:48:37,677 --> 01:48:38,905
Alvin Ailey ?

1148
01:48:39,397 --> 01:48:40,466
He's a...

1149
01:48:41,077 --> 01:48:42,510
He's a choreographer ?

1150
01:48:43,637 --> 01:48:45,468
He wants me to join his company.

1151
01:48:45,637 --> 01:48:48,993
I'm sorry, Leroy, but I don't think
this is the time...

1152
01:48:49,157 --> 01:48:51,796
I can't if you flunk me out.
I have to pass.

1153
01:48:52,037 --> 01:48:54,187
You should've thought of it
four years ago.

1154
01:48:54,357 --> 01:48:56,666
Where I come from
it don't pay to read and speak white.

1155
01:48:56,837 --> 01:48:58,634
Don't lecture me, Leroy.

1156
01:48:59,197 --> 01:49:02,951
Maybe I didn't say it right, but you
been down hard on me since day one.

1157
01:49:03,117 --> 01:49:05,267
Whatever you say,
Leroy. Go home.

1158
01:49:05,437 --> 01:49:08,509
I stopped going home !
You never knew that, did you ?

1159
01:49:08,677 --> 01:49:12,875
You make a big deal about pulling us out
of the gutter, yet you won't eat with us.

1160
01:49:13,037 --> 01:49:15,597
You know where that leaves people
like me ? Nowhere !

1161
01:49:15,757 --> 01:49:19,750
- It isn't the time. I don't wanna hear it.
- You're going to hear it !

1162
01:49:19,917 --> 01:49:23,671
- I'm gonna be a good dancer !
- Just get out of here, please !

1163
01:49:23,917 --> 01:49:26,829
- You will not keep me down...
- Leave me alone !

1164
01:49:26,997 --> 01:49:31,866
- ...because I can't read stories !
- Don't you think of anyone but yourself ?

1165
01:49:51,077 --> 01:49:52,066
Hey.

1166
01:49:52,717 --> 01:49:54,548
How's your old man doing ?

1167
01:49:55,157 --> 01:49:56,146
Shit.

1168
01:50:00,557 --> 01:50:01,546
Here.

1169
01:50:03,397 --> 01:50:04,910
Thank you.

1170
01:51:04,757 --> 01:51:08,955
Coco. Bonjour. You made it. Come on in.

1171
01:51:12,157 --> 01:51:15,069
- Am I early ?
- Don't be silly. Let me take your coat.

1172
01:51:15,557 --> 01:51:17,627
- Where's the crew ?
- You're looking at him.

1173
01:51:17,837 --> 01:51:20,874
I must have total control of
the creative product.

1174
01:51:21,037 --> 01:51:22,390
Like Godard.

1175
01:51:23,197 --> 01:51:26,269
- Jean-Luc Godard ? Ever hear of that guy ?
- French ?

1176
01:51:28,717 --> 01:51:31,026
- You ever see any of his pictures ?
- Sure.

1177
01:51:31,197 --> 01:51:33,108
Then you know what I'm talking about.

1178
01:51:34,117 --> 01:51:38,395
You see, I belong, sort of, to the
auteur school of filmmaking.

1179
01:51:38,557 --> 01:51:40,036
It's like the...

1180
01:51:40,197 --> 01:51:43,428
It's like the Mediterranean
approach, you know what I mean ?

1181
01:51:44,717 --> 01:51:47,026
- Do you want a beer ?
- No, thanks. I'm okay.

1182
01:51:47,197 --> 01:51:50,712
- It might relax you.
- It's all right. I have a lot on my mind.

1183
01:51:50,877 --> 01:51:52,151
I understand.

1184
01:51:53,997 --> 01:51:55,749
- What ?
- Come here.

1185
01:51:57,077 --> 01:52:00,308
That's it. I want you to sit right here.

1186
01:52:00,477 --> 01:52:05,232
We're gonna do a lovely close-up
of that beautiful face.

1187
01:52:06,197 --> 01:52:09,428
I get nervous at first with cold readings,
but then I'm all right.

1188
01:52:09,597 --> 01:52:12,634
Don't worry about that.
We'll get to the dialogue later.

1189
01:52:13,397 --> 01:52:17,913
- So, you like art movies, huh, Coco ?
- Antonioni and those people ? Sure.

1190
01:52:18,077 --> 01:52:20,386
It beats watching Laverne & Shirley.

1191
01:52:20,557 --> 01:52:23,708
Coco, you don't know
what you're doing to my lens.

1192
01:52:26,077 --> 01:52:28,272
You have a natural rapport
with the camera.

1193
01:52:28,437 --> 01:52:31,588
It's unbelievable. Some performers
can make love to the camera.

1194
01:52:31,757 --> 01:52:33,110
Garbo did.

1195
01:52:33,517 --> 01:52:35,030
Monroe did.

1196
01:52:36,357 --> 01:52:37,506
So could you.

1197
01:52:37,877 --> 01:52:39,833
- Yeah ?
- Oh, yeah.

1198
01:52:40,237 --> 01:52:42,307
Could you take your top off, please ?

1199
01:52:45,917 --> 01:52:48,909
- What ?
- Could you take your blouse off ?

1200
01:52:50,677 --> 01:52:52,872
- Are you kidding ?
- No, I'm not kidding.

1201
01:52:53,957 --> 01:52:56,755
What's the matter ?
You're acting like some dumb kid.

1202
01:52:56,917 --> 01:52:59,226
- I thought you were a professional.
- I am.

1203
01:52:59,397 --> 01:53:01,274
Well, then what's the problem ?

1204
01:53:13,277 --> 01:53:14,995
I can't.

1205
01:53:24,677 --> 01:53:25,905
That's better.

1206
01:53:27,397 --> 01:53:28,796
That's lovely.

1207
01:53:30,557 --> 01:53:32,149
Oh, yeah.

1208
01:53:33,917 --> 01:53:37,830
Yeah. Could you arch your back ?
Arch your back a little, Coco.

1209
01:53:41,277 --> 01:53:43,393
Smile for me, Coco.

1210
01:53:43,717 --> 01:53:48,427
Come on, Coco. Smile, smile.
Smile for me.

1211
01:53:49,557 --> 01:53:51,275
Now take your thumb...

1212
01:53:51,437 --> 01:53:53,075
...and put it in your mouth...

1213
01:53:53,237 --> 01:53:55,671
...like a little schoolgirl.

1214
01:53:58,157 --> 01:54:00,307
You ever notice that
black news reporters...

1215
01:54:00,477 --> 01:54:03,196
...get hired because
they have white accents ?

1216
01:54:03,357 --> 01:54:06,588
They should hire a more natural guy,
a dude from the street.

1217
01:54:06,997 --> 01:54:08,510
"This is Rufus X with the news..."

1218
01:54:10,837 --> 01:54:12,316
I need something.

1219
01:54:12,477 --> 01:54:13,751
Sleep.

1220
01:54:14,437 --> 01:54:16,905
- Something to keep me flying.
- Like what ?

1221
01:54:17,317 --> 01:54:19,990
Like by way of your witch doctor.

1222
01:54:20,277 --> 01:54:22,552
I don't see Dr Golden anymore.
You know that.

1223
01:54:23,037 --> 01:54:24,834
Anyway, you've been taking too much.

1224
01:54:24,997 --> 01:54:27,670
- Thanks, Marcus Welby.
- I know what I'm talking about.

1225
01:54:27,837 --> 01:54:30,112
Why don't you get off my fucking case ?

1226
01:54:30,277 --> 01:54:32,950
- I'm your friend.
- You're my friend ? Really ?

1227
01:54:33,117 --> 01:54:36,632
I know what you've been
after, you goddamn faggot.

1228
01:54:40,637 --> 01:54:42,434
I gotta go to the bathroom.

1229
01:54:44,157 --> 01:54:45,795
Good. You do that.

1230
01:54:47,677 --> 01:54:49,156
Hi. You got a problem ?

1231
01:54:49,757 --> 01:54:51,031
Yeah, I do.

1232
01:54:51,477 --> 01:54:53,229
We never see you anymore.

1233
01:54:53,477 --> 01:54:54,876
You see me plenty.

1234
01:54:55,037 --> 01:54:57,426
Drinking with your new friends
after the show.

1235
01:54:57,597 --> 01:55:00,714
After the show is when
all the big names come in.

1236
01:55:00,877 --> 01:55:02,993
You meet people. That's what counts.

1237
01:55:03,157 --> 01:55:05,910
I hate drinking. I'm doing this
for my future. For our future.

1238
01:55:06,077 --> 01:55:09,194
You're doing this for some image,
for Freddie because he did it.

1239
01:55:09,357 --> 01:55:11,666
- Yeah ? Maybe.
- Yeah ? Well, he died doing it.

1240
01:55:11,957 --> 01:55:14,027
- He could have been a real actor.
- He was !

1241
01:55:14,197 --> 01:55:17,792
He was funny and charming
and he made people laugh. That's it.

1242
01:55:17,957 --> 01:55:21,267
- That's plenty !
- That's not enough ! Not for you !

1243
01:55:21,437 --> 01:55:23,189
- Jesus Christ !
- You are good, Ralph.

1244
01:55:23,357 --> 01:55:25,746
- You're seriously really good.
- Jesus.

1245
01:55:25,917 --> 01:55:30,547
You're full of rage and pain and love.
Not just jokes. You're an original.

1246
01:55:30,717 --> 01:55:32,548
The original Ralph Garci.

1247
01:55:32,797 --> 01:55:36,312
- You don't have to be somebody else.
- You're bringing me down !

1248
01:55:36,477 --> 01:55:38,991
- You're bringing me fucking down !
- I'm sorry !

1249
01:55:39,157 --> 01:55:43,036
I gotta go make people laugh, and
you're talking about rage and pain.

1250
01:55:43,197 --> 01:55:45,631
- I said I'm sorry !
- It takes fucking wings.

1251
01:55:45,797 --> 01:55:48,948
Miss Seriously, let me tear flypaper, huh ?

1252
01:55:49,437 --> 01:55:51,314
Give me a fucking break, honey !

1253
01:55:51,477 --> 01:55:54,992
Give me a fucking break.
Okay, pal ? Thank you.

1254
01:55:57,877 --> 01:56:01,586
- What's happening to you ?
- What's happening to me ? Success.

1255
01:56:01,757 --> 01:56:05,636
Now, you either hang on or hang up.
All right ?

1256
01:56:11,037 --> 01:56:14,666
It's a great pleasure to introduce
a young man who's funny and loud.

1257
01:56:14,837 --> 01:56:16,111
Especially during my act.

1258
01:56:16,277 --> 01:56:20,065
Please welcome the comedy stylings
of Ralph Garci, ladies and gentlemen.

1259
01:56:22,477 --> 01:56:27,505
That's right. My name is Ralph Garci,
and I'm a professional asshole.

1260
01:56:31,357 --> 01:56:36,351
That's right. I see we have a couple
of amateurs in the audience tonight.

1261
01:56:36,797 --> 01:56:38,355
Don't we ?

1262
01:56:39,677 --> 01:56:42,316
I see. How about sign language ?

1263
01:56:42,477 --> 01:56:45,913
We have a standing ovation
over there.

1264
01:56:46,277 --> 01:56:49,428
That's great. Hon, where you from ?

1265
01:56:50,317 --> 01:56:54,515
Okey-dokey. That's my best friend.

1266
01:56:55,997 --> 01:56:57,794
Yeah, friends are important.

1267
01:56:59,197 --> 01:57:03,190
I live in the South Bronx, and up there,
you got the Harlems of...

1268
01:57:03,477 --> 01:57:07,186
Shit ! I'm sorry.
Excuse me. Fuck it.

1269
01:57:07,637 --> 01:57:09,116
That was supposed to be...

1270
01:57:09,597 --> 01:57:13,510
The north... The countries north
of Harlem and west of Puerto Rico.

1271
01:57:13,917 --> 01:57:16,511
That's what it was supposed to be.
Yes, indeed it was.

1272
01:57:16,677 --> 01:57:18,668
Anyway, there's lots of things there :

1273
01:57:18,837 --> 01:57:22,546
Rats, cockroaches,
and, you know, little bugs.

1274
01:57:22,717 --> 01:57:26,232
You know what cockroaches are ?
Little things that crawl in the night.

1275
01:57:28,157 --> 01:57:32,594
Listen, I don't mean to alarm you,
but if you don't laugh, you'll get cancer.

1276
01:57:34,677 --> 01:57:38,670
Sorry. That was probably in bad taste,
and I didn't really...

1277
01:57:42,757 --> 01:57:46,830
Excuse me. Fuck it.
Thank you very much.

1278
01:58:07,197 --> 01:58:08,266
What do you want ?

1279
01:58:08,957 --> 01:58:11,027
Pizza sounds good.
You wanna eat ?

1280
01:58:11,757 --> 01:58:14,476
Could you give me a break, all right ?

1281
01:58:14,917 --> 01:58:17,750
We could split a special,
with anchovies, maybe.

1282
01:58:18,037 --> 01:58:23,065
Fuck anchovies. I died out there,
you're talking about fucking pizzas ?

1283
01:58:23,237 --> 01:58:28,595
- No, I'm talking about eating pizzas.
- Oh, that's very funny. You're a howl.

1284
01:58:28,757 --> 01:58:31,715
You should have been out there.
The audience hated me.

1285
01:58:31,877 --> 01:58:36,029
- You had a bad night. That happens.
- Not to me, it doesn't.

1286
01:58:36,197 --> 01:58:39,348
What do you want ? Insurance ?
You're in the wrong business.

1287
01:58:39,517 --> 01:58:42,315
Performers aren't safe.
We're pie-in-the-face people.

1288
01:58:42,477 --> 01:58:45,674
Look, don't lecture me.
All right, Sir Laurence ?

1289
01:58:45,837 --> 01:58:49,591
All anyone ever promised you was
seven classes a day and a hot lunch.

1290
01:58:50,077 --> 01:58:51,476
The rest is up to you.

1291
01:58:51,637 --> 01:58:55,994
Back in the Middle Ages, actors,
they didn't even want to bury us.

1292
01:58:56,957 --> 01:58:58,629
Well, they do now.

1293
01:58:59,357 --> 01:59:01,871
Not if you're good.

1294
01:59:03,557 --> 01:59:05,229
How do you know ?

1295
01:59:06,157 --> 01:59:08,796
How do you know if you're good ?

1296
01:59:08,957 --> 01:59:10,993
Maybe you never know.

1297
01:59:16,157 --> 01:59:19,467
You just hang in, I guess.

1298
01:59:23,677 --> 01:59:25,508
You know the weirdest thing...

1299
01:59:26,317 --> 01:59:28,069
...is Freddie.

1300
01:59:28,917 --> 01:59:32,956
When he made it, he realized
it was everything he hated.

1301
01:59:33,477 --> 01:59:35,468
Cadillac Eldorado.

1302
01:59:35,637 --> 01:59:37,628
Pocketfull of Quaaludes.

1303
01:59:37,797 --> 01:59:39,196
Johnny Carson.

1304
01:59:39,357 --> 01:59:41,427
It was no special shit.

1305
01:59:41,717 --> 01:59:43,833
You're not Freddie, Ralph.

1306
01:59:43,997 --> 01:59:46,386
I know that. I know.

1307
01:59:47,677 --> 01:59:51,829
Know something else about Freddie ?
Freddie didn't even want to be Freddie.

1308
01:59:51,997 --> 01:59:55,990
- No ?
