1:02:01
Something was the matter,
all right.
1:02:04
I was thinking about
that girl of Artie's...
1:02:07
that Miss Schaefer.
1:02:09
She was so like all us writers
when we first hit Hollywood--
1:02:12
itching with ambition...
1:02:14
panting to get
your names up there.
1:02:17
Screenplay by.
Original story by.
1:02:23
Audiences don 't know somebody
sits down and writes a picture.
1:02:27
They think the actors
make it up as they go along.
1:02:31
Open your eyes.
1:03:07
Madame is wanted
on the telephone.
1:03:09
You know better
than to interrupt me.
1:03:11
- Paramount is calling.
- Who?
1:03:13
Paramount studios.
1:03:16
Now!
Now do you believe me?
1:03:18
I told you DeMille
would jump at it.
1:03:20
It is not Mr. DeMille
in person.
1:03:22
It is someone called Gordon Cole.
He says it is very important.
1:03:26
Certainly it's important.
1:03:27
It's important enough for
Mr. DeMille to call me personally.
1:03:30
The very idea of having
some assistant call me!
1:03:33
Say I'm busy and hang up!
1:03:35
Very good, Madame.
1:03:42
How do you like that?
1:03:44
We've made 1 2 pictures together.
His greatest successes!
1:03:48
Maybe he's busy shooting.
1:03:50
I know that trick!
1:03:52
He's trying to belittle me.
He's trying to get my price down.
1:03:55
I've waited 20 years
for this call.
1:03:59
Now DeMille can wait
until I'm good and ready!
