:09:03
- Am I unreasonable?
- No, no!
:09:06
You're missing the whole point. You have the
makings of a delightful human comedy here.
:09:13
You missed the humour in everything.
:09:15
I see a sweet, tree-lined block
on the Upper East Side.
:09:20
It's a dinner party. The husband is fawning
over his guest. He's a moviemaker.
:09:25
No, wait.
:09:28
Here's the idea. Make the film director the
wife. He's just her out-of-work actor husband.
:09:34
She's trying to impress the guest
and raise the money for an independent film.
:09:39
I just told Jennifer that Steve is interested
in investing in Susan's next movie.
:09:43
Yeah. I have most of the money. I've just
been trying to get it going now for two years.
:09:48
I liked your first picture.
Would you do this one on video too?
:09:51
No. That was just because
we only had $300,000.
:09:55
- This one will be on 35mm for sure.
- Well, how much do you need?
:09:58
I've raised about four million
and we need another two million.
:10:02
The problem is the theme is controversial.
:10:04
- What's the theme?
- Well, let's put it this way.
:10:07
It's a mostly all-female cast
and it's called The Castration Sonata.
:10:13
- Do you happen to have single malt Scotch?
- You know, let me check.
:10:18
- Hurry. I'm running out of obsequious banter.
- Don't throw me. Everything's timed.
:10:23
Chilean sea bass and caramelised filo
is not like scrambled eggs.
:10:26
Well, he happens to love it. Does he love it
$2 million worth? God, I hope so.
:10:31
I told you we should keep single malt Scotch.
:10:33
- Who drinks it?
- He does.
:10:35
God, you're definitely going all out.
You're dressed very sexy.
:10:40
- Hobie, keep your eyes on the sea bass!
- OK, OK, OK.
:10:43
She goes down to buy
a bottle of single malt Scotch.
:10:54
Are you OK?
:10:58
Yeah, I'm fine.
