And you had to go
to the hospital to get it removed.

:21:03

:21:05
Billy, you're not following
the column. I had it last week.

:21:10
Senator, do you believe
in capital punishment?

:21:13
- Why?
- A man has just been sentenced to death.

:21:21
Manny, tell me,
:21:23
what exactly are the unseen gifts of
this lovely young thing that you manage?

:21:29
Well, she sings a little.
You know, she sings and...

:21:32
Manny's faith in me is simply
awe-inspiring, Mr Hunsecker.

:21:37
- Actually, I'm still studying.
- What subject?

:21:39
Singing, of course. Straight concert and...
:21:43
Why "of course"? You might,
for instance, be studying politics.

:21:47
- Uh, me?
- Well, you see, JJ...

:21:49
I mean, I? You must be
kidding, Mr Hunsecker.

:21:52
Me, with my Jersey City brains?
:21:54
The brains may be Jersey City,
:21:57
but the clothes are Traina Norell.
:22:00
Are you an actor, Mr Falco?
:22:03
That's what I was thinking.
Are you, Mr Falco?

:22:05
How did you guess it, Miss James?
:22:08
He's so pretty, that's how.
:22:11
Mr Falco, let it be said at once,
is a man of 40 faces, not one.

:22:16
None too pretty, and all deceptive.
:22:19
You see that grin? That's the, uh...
:22:22
That's the "charming street urchin" face.
:22:25
It's part of his helpless act.
He throws himself upon your mercy.

:22:28
He's got a half dozen faces for the ladies.
:22:31
But the one I like, the really cute one,
is the "quick, dependable chap".

:22:35
Nothing he won't do for you in a pinch.
So he says.

:22:40
Mr Falco, whom I did not invite to sit at
this table tonight, is a hungry press agent

:22:44
and fully up to all the tricks
of his very slimy trade.

:22:49
Match me, Sidney.
:22:52
Not right this minute, JJ.
:22:58
I know, your wonder boy
is opening at the Latin Quarter.
