:48:22
- how do you do, Plunkett
- how do you do

:48:25
oh Mr Chambers!
:48:29
that's a very funny play you've got in there,
in spots

:48:32
thank you
:48:33
- how is Paris?
- great, fine

:48:36
advertising going bigger than ever,
the French are getting billboard-crazy

:48:40
how is Paris otherwise?
:48:43
- oh you don't know what happened!
- no, what?

:48:46
well it's quite a story
:48:48
the French government objected
to showing Napoleon in union suits

:48:52
I was up against it for a while,
but I changed it

:48:55
to Julius Cesar
:48:57
I'll tell you something:
outsold Napoleon two to one

:49:00
just goes to show
:49:03
anything else going on in Paris?
:49:05
no, no
:49:09
well, I'm glad I ran into you
:49:11
pretty good play for the money
:49:14
oh Mr Chambers, I almost forgot,
best regards from George and Gilda

:49:18
oh thanks. how is George?
:49:20
we are friends
:49:21
as you know, at first I was inclined
to withhold my approval of the whole thing,

:49:24
but you know how much I like Gilda
:49:27
it's true I didn't get to first base, but...
lots of other people didn't either

:49:34
George is getting along nicely?
:49:37
oh great, great.
he painted me

:49:39
a portrait, from here up
:49:41
that put him over in the art world
:49:43
yes sir!
:49:44
- how is Gilda?
- fine

:49:47
when they first broached the project of painting me
I put my foot down,

:49:51
- but Gilda
- how is she?
- fine

:49:53
it turned out to be a great painting.
it's a masterpiece

:49:56
looks exactly like me
:49:57
it's called "Man with Derby"
:49:59
yes sir!
the French museum bought it
