:28:01
- Sorry. I missed it.
-Yeah.
:28:03
People get old, and sick,
and never find true love.
:28:09
Where I come from, people don't
disappoint. They're consistent.
:28:12
- They're always reliable.
- You don't find that kind in real life.
:28:17
You have.
:28:28
Is it true they're talking to you
about the life of Lindbergh?
:28:31
It's nearly set, but don't print it till it's firm.
:28:34
You were great
in The Purple Rose of Cairo.
:28:36
Thanks. I was... Did you know I was
singled out by all the East Coast critics?
:28:41
Mm-hm. The New York Times
said that I was...
:28:44
I had almost too smouldering
a quality to just play comedy.
:28:48
Would you play Lindbergh
the way you played Tom Baxter?
:28:51
Would I...? No, of course not.
Tom was a change of pace for me.
:28:54
He was... From my earlier roles.
:28:56
I played Tom Baxter with a kind of
a poetic, idealistic quality that just...
:29:03
Lindbergh was a loner.
He was... just self-reliant.
:29:07
I'd have to work with
my dialogue coach. He's a genius.
:29:10
Gil, can I see you
for a minute, alone? Excuse me.
:29:15
Tom Baxter's come down
off the screen. He's in New Jersey.
:29:19
I spoke to Raoul Hirsch.
Nobody knows how, but he's done it.
:29:22
- It's not physically possible.
- In New Jersey, anything can happen.
:29:25
- But I created the character.
- That's my point!
:29:29
As your agent, I'd hate to see
anything happen to your career.
:29:32
- Like what?
- Who knows? A double of you is loose.
:29:34
What's he up to?
Robbing banks? Raping broads?
:29:37
- Is he?
- Who knows?
:29:39
- The last thing we need is for you to get...
- Sh!
:29:44
- Is for you to get a reputation as difficult.
- I'm not... It's not my fault.
:29:48
Hirsch said, if you can't control your own
creation, nobody'll risk a picture on you.
:29:53
- I worked so hard to make him real.
- Maybe you overdid it.
:29:56
- I'll sue my dialogue coach, that louse.
- Fly down there and check into it, quick.
