Hammett

1:10:14

How do you do, Mr. Hagedorn?

1:10:16

I thought we should have
a little chat.

1:10:18

Indeed, sir.

1:10:20

I fear you have the advantage
over me. Truly, sir, I do.

1:10:23

What's the story
on you and Jimmy Ryan?

1:10:27

My God, sir, I think you and I
are going to get along perfectly.

1:10:30

I like a man who favors
the forthright approach.

1:10:35

You have a unique
persuasive style, sir.

1:10:38

Perhaps a little lacking in finesse,
but then, polish isn't everything.

1:10:42

Whom have I the honor
of addressing?

1:10:45

Sam Hammett.

1:10:53

Samuel Dashiell Hammett.

1:10:55

Former Pinkerton man. Now what?

1:10:58

Master of the penny dreadful.

1:11:01

- Getting rich?
- Scraping by.

1:11:03

Aren't we all.

1:11:05

Well, sir,
now what shall we talk about?

1:11:07

First off, him, your gunsel,
why is he tailing me all over town?

1:11:10

- Does he think I'm pretty or what?
- Gunsel?

1:11:14

My word, sir, what a precise use
of the English language.

1:11:16

You know the synonym of gunsel,
of course?

1:11:18

Catamite, nance, fairy, punk.

1:11:22

By the way,
you shouldn't let him carry this.

1:11:26

Smacks of ill will.
Again, why is he tailing me?

1:11:29

We're looking for your
Mr. Ryan, actually,

1:11:31

who we feel might be in possession
of certain information

1:11:33

- useful to my client...
- Mrs. Callaghan,

1:11:35

whose late husband
killed himself, sort of.

1:11:37

Why did Callaghan kill himself,
if he did?

1:11:39

Well, sir, he was ruined.
Financially, I mean.

1:11:41

What was it,
liquor, women, gambling?

1:11:43

He guessed wrong
on the commodity market.

1:11:44

The market rose,
he couldn't cover his short position.

1:11:46

I see. What about Callaghan and
Crystal Ling? The late Crystal Ling.

1:11:52

What about them?

1:11:53

I understand
he bought her from Fong.

1:11:58

My word, sir.
You have been amongst liars.
