What is it, Max?
Want to wash the car?
1:21:14
Or are you spying in your off hours?
1:21:17
Be careful as you cross the patio.
Madame may be watching.
1:21:22
How about going up the kitchen stairs
and undressing in the dark?
1:21:26
I'm not enquiring
where Mr Gillis goes every night.
1:21:29
Why don't you? I'm writing a script
and I'm going to finish it!
1:21:35
It's just that I am greatly
worried about Madame.
1:21:39
Sure you are.
And we're not helping her any.
1:21:43
Feeding her lies and more lies,
getting herself ready for a picture.
1:21:48
- What happens when she finds out?
- She never will.
1:21:52
That is my job
and it has been for a long time.
1:21:57
Understand, I discovered her when
she was sixteen. I made her a star.
1:22:03
I cannot let her be destroyed.
1:22:07
- You made her a star?
- Yes, I directed all her early films.
1:22:13
There were three young directors
who showed promise in those days.
1:22:17
D W Griffith, Cecil B DeMille
and Max Von Mayerling.
1:22:24
And she's turned you into a servant.
1:22:26
It was I who asked to come back,
humiliating as it may seem.
1:22:31
I could've continued my career,
1:22:34
only I found everything
unendurable after she'd left me.
1:22:39
You see, I was her first husband.
