:44:05
- What do you think?
- I didn't like it. Didn't appeal to me.
:44:09
What do you mean it didn't appeal
to you? I'm the senior partner.
:44:12
- I make the decisions.
- Well, what did you think?
:44:15
- It didn't appeal to me either.
- Which proves you have no ear for music.
:44:20
He's got no ear for music. I'm the senior
partner. I have a wonderful ear for music.
:44:26
- The libretto is a grand story, isn't it?
- I laughed all the way through it.
:44:31
That's my cue. If Harold laughs
then I know it isn't funny.
:44:36
Why don't you have Mr. Cohan sing?
Maybe you didn't like "Harrigan"...
:44:40
...because I haven't got much of a voice.
- I think you have a lovely voice.
:44:44
- Don't you think so, Mr. Dietz?
- Yes. If you'd like a job answering phones...
:44:50
Are you or are you not going
to produce my play?
:44:53
If you think I'd put my wife's money
in that trash, you're crazy.
:44:57
That's it, Mary. That's enough.
They've had their chance.
:45:03
- Have you an appointment?
- Yes. I'm Sam Harris.
:45:06
I want to see them
about this melodrama.
:45:08
- We don't teach them their business.
- We're busy. We have no time.
:45:12
You don't know it,
but your days are numbered.
:45:14
You're making room for the likes of me.
Someday, Mr. Senior Partner...
:45:18
...you're gonna come to me and
admit you were wrong.
:45:21
In 20 years of show business, I never
once admitted I was wrong.
:45:25
- That's his department.
- And your wife's money...
:45:28
- Excuse me. I have an appointment.
- Who are you?
:45:31
My name's Sam Harris. I have a
melodrama here called Wildflower.
:45:35
Wildflower.
:45:38
One, two, three, four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine, ten. Horses.
:45:42
Oh, and Indians.
:45:44
Come on. Don't let a couple like that
get under your skin. No sense in crying.
:45:50
- Buffalo is such a beautiful city.
- Is that what you're crying about?
:45:54
It's a beautiful city,
but I hate to go back to it.
:45:57
Don't worry, you won't have to.
I'll show them.
:45:59
I'm gonna have my name posted and
plastered up and down Broadway.
