Harry Lauder at 2500 bucks a week.
:48:03
Hammerstein's a great showman. A lot
of people have never seen a Scotchman.
:48:08
Take some goulash, Mrs. Cohan.
:48:11
Did you have that appointment
with that man about your booking?
:48:15
Oh, yes. He's gonna give work
to the act any day now.
:48:18
What happened to that Boston offer?
That was a mighty sweet proposition.
:48:22
Four weeks' guarantee, $300 a week,
and top billing.
:48:26
Well, we didn't take it.
You see, it just wasn't right.
:48:30
Any act that lays off as long as
you have, any offer's all right.
:48:34
- Butter?
- Thanks.
:48:36
We just thought we'd rest
a few more weeks.
:48:39
Yes, my brother's writing some new
material. We're just not ready to open.
:48:46
You're not fooling anybody.
:48:48
Everybody knows that you, Nellie and
Josie can get work anytime, any place.
:48:53
But nobody wants Georgie.
:48:55
He's made trouble in every theater
this side of San Francisco.
:48:58
You can't lay off just because every
manager in town has blackballed Georgie.
:49:03
His family hasn't blackballed him.
:49:05
We may take a lot of hard knocks and
make a lot of sacrifices...
:49:09
...but if they want our act, they'll take him
too. We're not breaking up our act or family.
:49:15
All right, all right. Let the blackballs
fall where they may.
:49:19
Madame Bartholdi,
champagne for everybody!
:49:23
- Swell.
- Even if I had it, who would pay?
:49:26
Dietz & Goff. They're producing
Little Johnny Jones.
:49:29
- George, really?
- They went crazy about the book.
:49:32
Dietz said to heck with his wife's
money. He's gonna use his own.
:49:36
Second round of champagne on me, if
you had it. Pass that goulash down.
:49:42
Oh, George. Think of those billboards.
:49:48
Book, music and lyrics all by
George M. Cohan.
:49:53
- Oh, Georgie, l...
- Take it easy, Josie.
:49:56
There's enough water on the goulash now.
:49:59
Dad, I'm gonna be tied in rehearsal
for the next few months.
