:56:00
Thanks.
:56:02
I'm talking
about a type of acting
that is purely instinctive.

:56:07
You see, Ronnie, you have
something that gives even the
most casual look or gesture...

:56:12
a real intensity.
:56:15
Yeah?
Oh, yes.

:56:18
It came as no surprise to me
when I heard that you'd been
rescued at an early age...

:56:21
from the hell of advertising.
:56:23
It was obvious to me that some
producer, some astute producer,

:56:29
had seen what I saw
when Abigail persuaded me
to see Hotpants College II.

:56:33
I got that role because
I looked like the guy who
played Mikey in the original.

:56:37
Yes, but didn't you completely
reinvent the character
with a mere string of lines?

:56:42
Didn't you make Mikey
the focus of the entire story?

:56:47
Well, I wouldn't
exactly say that.

:56:51
As for your fate
in the pizza parlor, the plastic
tomato and all that, well--

:56:56
[ Laughs ]
:56:58
Well, I don't know.
This may sound absurd, but--

:57:03
No, my point of reference
would be Wallis' painting...

:57:08
of the tragic young writer
Chatterton...

:57:13
that hangs
in the Tate Gallery.

:57:17
[ Audrey Sighs ]
I'd really like to see that.

:57:20
But, Giles, we've seen
Hotpants in theaters with kids.
They don't get any of that.

:57:25
- Of course not.
- But it's made for them.

:57:29
But they're the rabble
in the pit.

:57:31
[ Audrey Laughs ]
We saw Hotpants at this drive-in
used to be here.

:57:35
Ron kept his sunglasses on
the whole time.

:57:39
Giles, did you
ever see Tex Mex?

:57:42
Oh, I did indeed,
more than once.

:57:45
Really killed me
when that one bombed.

:57:48
Ah, yes, I'm afraid it suffered
the same fate in Europe.

:57:53
I really believed
in that project.
It had--

:57:56
had a real message.
:57:58
Yes, it was
a great shame really.
