1:15:01
You need a leading lady,
you've got your ingénue.
1:15:05
- George!
- Fay Templeton, not bad.
1:15:08
If she can do two years in the turkey
she's in, she can do four for us.
1:15:11
- Will she take it?
- I don't know.
1:15:13
- At least you can get her autograph.
- Or she can get mine.
1:15:16
- Bring her back to supper after the show.
- We will, if she's still speaking to us.
1:15:34
A flower, mister?
1:15:37
- Here you are.
- Would you like to buy it?
1:15:40
Thank you.
1:15:41
One thing in our favor
is Erlanger's on our side.
1:15:44
- He's got influence with Miss Templeton.
- You take Erlanger and I'll tackle Templeton.
1:15:48
You don't tackle a star like Miss Templeton,
you approach her and very tactfully.
1:15:53
Well, if it's tact that does it, it's done.
1:15:58
If you get me in to see Miss Templeton
I'll get you passes to my next show.
1:16:02
Look, Dietz.
Looks naked without Goff.
1:16:05
- Where's Miss Templeton's dressing room?
- Upstairs.
1:16:09
Tell you what I'm gonna do, I'm gonna see
that Miss Templeton gets your flowers.
1:16:14
My respects to Mrs. Dietz.
1:16:17
Now that was a very sweet gesture.
1:16:20
You've got to remember,
Fay, we're having a tough time...
1:16:23
...lining up a vehicle for you.
Now, you should listen to this man.
1:16:28
- He's just written a big hit.
- One hit.
1:16:31
He may be a flash in the pan,
for all we know.
1:16:33
And I heard about Little Johnny Jones.
1:16:36
And I read the critics.
Of all the loud, vulgar, flag-waving...
1:16:41
Well, it was a wow.
1:16:43
I haven't laughed so much in years.
That fellow's got the golden touch.
1:16:47
Maybe so, but not for me, Mr. Erlanger.
1:16:50
What I want is a quiet,
dignified musical play.
1:16:54
I want to perform in a theater,
not a boiler factory.
1:16:57
Come in.
