:53:02
Claire told you? Oh, that. Oh, fuck that.
:53:05
- What?
- That's over.
:53:08
l must have been delirious
for a few weeks there.
:53:10
- Hi, Tim. How are you?
- Oh, man. This is bad.
:53:13
l don't wanna tell Claire
you changed your mind.
:53:16
l've regained my senses.
l was talking like a moron.
:53:19
Go down here and go left.
:53:30
- What happened?
- Nothing happened. lt never happened.
:53:34
Look, Mack, l'm an artist. Now go ahead
and laugh, because everybody does.
:53:39
Nobody in this town will admit
that a producer is an artist.
:53:43
But l know how many lame-o directors
l've had to carry on my back every step...
:53:48
..and then watch as they take
the glory and reviews and awards.
:53:52
- Which awards were those?
- l don't mind working in modest anonymity.
:53:55
That's the way Thalberg did it, too.
:53:59
- lf they're so lame-o, why do you hire them?
- l haven't got time to do it.
:54:02
Hanging around the set all day, doing that
boring lighting and shit. Let them do that.
:54:07
That's beside the point. The point is...
:54:10
Turn around. Turn around
and go back down there.
:54:18
- Where was l?
- The point is...
:54:20
There's a gulf in this country,
an ever-widening abyss...
:54:23
..between people who have stuff
and those who have shit.
:54:26
lt's like this big hole has opened up in the
ground, as big as the fucking Grand Canyon.
:54:31
And what's come pouring out...
Hi. My name's Davis. Building 78.
:54:35
The whole building. Stop by.
l think l have something for you.
:54:39
This is the greatest town on earth.
Go left here.
:54:42
- Where was l?
- Grand Canyon?
:54:45
Yeah. And what's come outta
this big hole is an eruption of rage,...
:54:49
..and the rage creates violence
and the violence is real.
:54:52
And it won't go away
until someone changes something.
:54:55
Which is not gonna happen. And you
may not like it. Even l may not like it.
:54:59
But l can't pretend it isn't there,
because that is a lie.
