0:05:09 > 0:05:11Down here, Emma. Third row.
0:05:11 > 0:05:16I came in early to tidy up. The doorman said you were in.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18What you doin' out there?
0:05:19 > 0:05:22It's the one place in the theatre I've never sat.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27Maybe things look different from here.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31This is the day, isn't it?
0:05:31 > 0:05:33Yeah.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36< Any word yet?
0:05:36 > 0:05:38No, the wire just said tonight.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41Are you nervous?
0:05:41 > 0:05:44Nervous, happy, scared, excited...
0:05:47 > 0:05:50I'll make some fresh coffee. Coming?
0:05:50 > 0:05:54No, I think I'll sit here for a while.
0:05:54 > 0:05:58< I'll be in the dressing room if you want me.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00Oh, Mr Ziegfeld wants to see you.
0:06:00 > 0:06:05When you feel like it, he says. He'll be waiting in his office.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07Thanks, Em.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17Did you hear that, Mrs Strakosh?
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Ziegfeld is waiting for me.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27- For- me.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32See, you were wrong, Mrs Strakosh.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38No, Fanny, darling, I'm not wrong. >
0:06:38 > 0:06:41For a girl, for average, you're a pleasure.
0:06:41 > 0:06:45But when people pay good money in the theatre...
0:06:45 > 0:06:49- especially the- male- element, they want something extra to look at.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52But if a girl isn't...
0:06:52 > 0:06:54If a girl isn't what?
0:06:55 > 0:06:58# If a girl isn't pretty
0:06:58 > 0:07:00# Like a Miss Atlantic City
0:07:00 > 0:07:04# All she gets from life is pity and a pat
0:07:04 > 0:07:09# Kindly name a star who hasn't won a contest or a pageant
0:07:09 > 0:07:13# If she hasn't, she just never gets to bat... #
0:07:14 > 0:07:17- ITALIAN ACCENT - # ..She musta shine in every detail
0:07:17 > 0:07:19# Like a ring you're buying retail... #
0:07:19 > 0:07:21- IRISH ACCENT - # ..Be a standard size
0:07:21 > 0:07:23# That fits a standard dress
0:07:23 > 0:07:26# When a girl's incidentals
0:07:26 > 0:07:29# Are no bigger than two lentils
0:07:29 > 0:07:33# Then, to me, it doesn't spell success... #
0:07:33 > 0:07:39They'll still look at me. The whole world will look at me and be stunned.
0:07:39 > 0:07:44Fine when you were a child making funny faces. THEN you were cute.
0:07:44 > 0:07:48My condolences, darling. You're no longer cute.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50# From three faces that could cause you
0:07:50 > 0:07:52# To have temporary nausea
0:07:52 > 0:07:57# Do I have to hear a lecture such as that?
0:07:57 > 0:08:01# Is a nose with deviation such a crime against the nation?
0:08:01 > 0:08:04# Should I throw her into jail or drown the cat... #
0:08:04 > 0:08:06Ma!
0:08:06 > 0:08:07Bye.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09Bye.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12# ..So she looks a bit off balance
0:08:12 > 0:08:15# She possesses golden talents
0:08:15 > 0:08:19# Or is that a pill too bitter to digest? #
0:08:23 > 0:08:25Ruff, ruff!

0:10:03 > 0:10:04What?
0:10:04 > 0:10:07You call that a replacement, Eddie?
0:10:07 > 0:10:10- Did you owe someone a favour? - It seemed like a funny idea.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12- What's funny about it? - That's what I say.
0:10:12 > 0:10:13Everybody back at four.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16Listen, Mr Keeney, you're making a mistake.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19I've been on the stage since I was 10!

0:10:28 > 0:10:30- Listen, girl...- How!
0:10:30 > 0:10:32You've got to face facts.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34You don't look like the other girls.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37You stick out - you ARE out. Eddie!
0:10:37 > 0:10:40I'm just trying to tell you something

0:10:52 > 0:10:54and suddenly, in walks a bagel.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56You say, "What is that?!"
0:10:56 > 0:10:59Until you TRY it! That's my trouble.
0:10:59 > 0:11:00What's your trouble?
0:11:00 > 0:11:03I'm a bagel surrounded by onion rolls!
0:11:03 > 0:11:05Nobody recognises me.
0:11:05 > 0:11:10I've got 36 expressions sweet-as-pie to tough-as-leather.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13# That's six expressions more than all the Barrymores put together... #

0:11:15 > 0:11:18# ..Instead of kicking me, why don't they give me a lift?
0:11:18 > 0:11:21# It must be a plot Cos they're scared that I got
0:11:21 > 0:11:23# Such a gift... #

0:15:42 > 0:15:44How come you hired me?
0:15:46 > 0:15:49Because you wanted it so much.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53Are you sure you're tough enough for show business?
0:15:55 > 0:15:58Maybe not. Say, can you roller-skate?
0:15:58 > 0:16:01You had a sudden urge to go skating?
0:16:01 > 0:16:05I'm trying out a novelty number tomorrow. Be here at noon.

0:24:31 > 0:24:33You were bluffing? Like in poker?
0:24:33 > 0:24:38- What would've happened if Keeney stopped first?- You'd have lost.
0:24:38 > 0:24:40I'd have lost the job?
0:24:40 > 0:24:42I was willing to take a chance.
0:24:42 > 0:24:45With my job?

0:25:13 > 0:25:15Well, um...

0:27:06 > 0:27:09What do you think of my new song?
0:27:09 > 0:27:11I liked the old one better.
0:27:11 > 0:27:15I'm tired of it. I've been singing it for six SIX months.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17- So?- So? What?

0:27:58 > 0:28:00Signed Florenz Ziegfeld.
0:28:00 > 0:28:03ALL CONGRATULATE HER
0:28:03 > 0:28:06Bottoms up, Fanny, darling, bottoms up!
0:28:06 > 0:28:09- I knew you could do it.- My stomach aches!
0:28:09 > 0:28:13- How could a mother call a boy Florence?- It's Florenzzz.
0:28:13 > 0:28:15How could she call him Florenzzz?!
0:28:15 > 0:28:18- Is it a job or just an audition? - A job!
0:28:18 > 0:28:22You know what I think? Somebody talked to him about me.
0:28:22 > 0:28:26I met this guy backstage, with a ruffled shirt on.
0:28:26 > 0:28:30The kind of guy who would know Ziegfeld. I bet it was him!
0:28:30 > 0:28:32That was what must have happened.
0:28:32 > 0:28:36- Ah, my head aches.- No aches you're built like a horse.
0:28:36 > 0:28:38I have nothing to wear!
0:28:38 > 0:28:41What's she been wearing, towels(?)
0:28:41 > 0:28:45It's coming too easy, that's what's got me scared.
0:28:45 > 0:28:51Where's all the suffering, and the hard knocks you're supposed to learn from?
0:28:51 > 0:28:53This is too quick!
0:28:53 > 0:28:56I haven't suffered enough yet.
0:28:58 > 0:29:01You haven't got the job yet, either.
0:29:01 > 0:29:03And who says you can't lose it?
0:29:03 > 0:29:07You'll suffer if you're as bossy with Ziegfeld as you are with me.
0:29:07 > 0:29:10I am not bossy with you. Or anyone.
0:29:10 > 0:29:14And even if I was, Ziegfeld isn't just anyone.
0:29:14 > 0:29:20Believe me, whatever Mr Ziegfeld tells me to do, that's what I'll do.
0:29:20 > 0:29:26# Even our piano in the parlour
0:29:26 > 0:29:32# Father bought for ten cents on the dollar
0:29:32 > 0:29:36# Second-hand pearls, I'm wearing
0:29:36 > 0:29:38# Second-hand curls
0:29:38 > 0:29:43# I never get a single thing that's new
0:29:45 > 0:29:52# Even Jake the plumber he's the man I adore
0:29:52 > 0:29:58# He had the nerve to tell me he's been married before
0:29:58 > 0:30:02# Everyone knows that I'm just
0:30:02 > 0:30:04# Second-hand Rose

0:32:01 > 0:32:03Well, I just...um...
0:32:03 > 0:32:05I can't sing words like...
0:32:05 > 0:32:09"I am the beautiful reflection of my love's affection."
0:32:09 > 0:32:11COUGHS NERVOUSLY
0:32:11 > 0:32:12< Why not?
0:32:12 > 0:32:14Well, it's um...embarrassing.
0:32:14 > 0:32:19I'll do my first-act number and we'll call it a night. OK?
0:32:19 > 0:32:22- < No, it's not OK.- Why not?
0:32:22 > 0:32:25Miss Brice, may I remind you you're in MY theatre?
0:32:25 > 0:32:28So, nobody argues with the landlord?
0:32:28 > 0:32:30LAUGHTER
0:32:30 > 0:32:32< Wait there. I'm coming down.
0:32:32 > 0:32:34Uh-oh...
0:32:34 > 0:32:38Uh, take five. Take five, everybody.
0:32:38 > 0:32:41Just uh...take...five.
0:32:45 > 0:32:47Is that bad, his coming down?
0:32:47 > 0:32:51Only if you want to stay in the show. What's your name?
0:32:51 > 0:32:54- Fanny Brice.- I'm Georgia James. Tell him you were wrong.
0:32:54 > 0:32:56But I'm not.

0:32:59 > 0:33:01< Miss Brice!
0:33:03 > 0:33:05Now, what is all this?
0:33:05 > 0:33:08Two minutes ago you said, "Anything you say." Remember?
0:33:08 > 0:33:10Yes and I'm very sorry.
0:33:10 > 0:33:13If I come out telling the audience...
0:33:13 > 0:33:17how beautiful I am, I'll be back at Keeney's before the curtain falls.
0:33:17 > 0:33:19That won't happen.
0:33:19 > 0:33:22I need a strong voice in the finale.
0:33:22 > 0:33:24Please take me out of it, Mr Ziegfeld.
0:33:24 > 0:33:27Miss Brice, if I take you out of the finale,
0:33:27 > 0:33:29I take you out of the Follies.
0:33:29 > 0:33:32It's just that simple.
0:33:40 > 0:33:42OK, you win.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45Thank you.
0:33:45 > 0:33:48You don't win fair, but you win.
0:33:50 > 0:33:55I'll see the bride number, with Miss Brice.

0:42:45 > 0:42:50Well, you have a charming mother and I have a problem.
0:42:50 > 0:42:54I ought to fire you, but I love talent.
0:42:54 > 0:42:58And, er...it's hard to quarrel with five curtain calls.
0:42:58 > 0:43:00Six.
0:43:00 > 0:43:02There you are.
0:43:02 > 0:43:06So, I guess I'll have to give you another chance.
0:43:06 > 0:43:09Oh, Mr...Ziegfeld.
0:43:09 > 0:43:11- Did he fire you?- Not yet.
0:43:11 > 0:43:18- But I'll ring the curtain down on you if you- ever- disobey an order of mine again.
0:43:18 > 0:43:20I won't. Never, ever.
0:43:20 > 0:43:22I'll do it straight tomorrow night.
0:43:22 > 0:43:25I mean...without the, er...
0:43:25 > 0:43:26pillow.
0:43:26 > 0:43:29You'll do it just as you did tonight
0:43:29 > 0:43:31You mean you liked it?!
0:43:31 > 0:43:33No, but the audience did.
0:43:33 > 0:43:37So, I'm giving you another number a new song.
0:43:37 > 0:43:39Oh, thank you, Mr Ziegfeld!
0:43:39 > 0:43:41The only thing is, about that song.
0:43:41 > 0:43:44A song is a very intimate thing.
0:43:44 > 0:43:49I mean, it's really between me and the, um...audience.
0:43:49 > 0:43:55- So?- So, um...one thing I feel definite about is choosing my own.
0:43:57 > 0:43:59Choosing your own what?
0:43:59 > 0:44:00Song. Songs.
0:44:00 > 0:44:02KNOCK ON DOOR
0:44:06 > 0:44:09Good evening. And congratulations. Both of you.
0:44:09 > 0:44:12- Oh, hello, Nick. - You! My first ruffled shirt.
0:44:12 > 0:44:14Nick, how are they running?
0:44:14 > 0:44:17Oh, ahead, Flo. Just like you and this girl.
0:44:17 > 0:44:20I had a hunch you two belonged together.
0:44:20 > 0:44:24I have it too. And it's ageing me.
0:44:24 > 0:44:26Fast.
0:44:26 > 0:44:28It WAS you who told him about me.
0:44:28 > 0:44:32- I'm afraid not. I wish I had. - I don't believe you.
0:44:32 > 0:44:37Have it your own way. As you did on that stage tonight, didn't you?
0:44:37 > 0:44:39Six curtain calls...
0:44:39 > 0:44:41Only five.
0:44:41 > 0:44:43But you stopped the show.
0:44:43 > 0:44:46I did? I did! I stopped the Ziegfeld Follies!
0:44:46 > 0:44:48I knew you would. I had your flowers ready.
0:44:48 > 0:44:50What?
0:44:50 > 0:44:52The yellow roses.
0:44:54 > 0:44:56Oh, I didn't have a chance to look!
0:44:58 > 0:45:00Oh, they're beautiful!
0:45:01 > 0:45:05"Dear star...I told you so."
0:45:05 > 0:45:07Don't forget I saw you work out!
0:45:07 > 0:45:11Where would you like to go? Delmonico's? A party or two?
0:45:11 > 0:45:13I've got to meet a gang of people...
0:45:13 > 0:45:16"At my mother's saloon." Can't you skip it?
0:45:16 > 0:45:18No, it wouldn't be nice.
0:45:18 > 0:45:21It's sort of a party um...for me.
0:45:21 > 0:45:23You want to come?
0:45:23 > 0:45:24I'd love to.
0:45:24 > 0:45:26- You mean it?- Of course!
0:45:26 > 0:45:30It's only neighbours. It might waste your evening.
0:45:30 > 0:45:33I'll be with you, won't I?
0:45:35 > 0:45:37Oh.
0:45:37 > 0:45:39Go ahead, get dressed.
0:45:49 > 0:45:51PIANO AND FIDDLE MUSIC
0:46:14 > 0:46:18Candidly, Mrs Brice, THAT'S a good-looking fella.
0:46:18 > 0:46:20Oh, gorgeous!
0:46:20 > 0:46:24He reminds me of Fanny's poppa, my ex. Also gorgeous.
0:46:24 > 0:46:26Wherever he is, he should stay there.
0:46:30 > 0:46:34What do you do, between my opening nights?
0:46:34 > 0:46:37- Live.- Everybody does that.
0:46:37 > 0:46:39Hardly anyone does.
0:46:39 > 0:46:41I do. And on the side, I gamble.
0:46:41 > 0:46:43You...you just gamble?!
0:46:43 > 0:46:45Yes, like you did tonight.
0:46:50 > 0:46:52SHE HUMS TO MUSIC
0:46:52 > 0:46:54Are you married?
0:46:54 > 0:46:57No, Mrs Strakosh, I'm not married.
0:46:59 > 0:47:03So, you're Mrs Strakosh's married daughter, Sadie?
0:47:03 > 0:47:06To a dentist.
0:47:08 > 0:47:12Oh, Mr Arnstein, could I interest you in a little game of poker?
0:47:12 > 0:47:14Three cents limit.
0:47:16 > 0:47:18I was hoping you'd ask.
0:47:18 > 0:47:20Deuces, tens and jokers wild.
0:47:22 > 0:47:24We're out for blood!
0:47:27 > 0:47:29Would you care to deal?
0:47:30 > 0:47:32Oh, look!
0:47:32 > 0:47:35That's marvellous!
0:47:35 > 0:47:39I think he's played a game of poker before, that Mr Arnstein.
0:47:39 > 0:47:41The way he looks to home.
0:47:41 > 0:47:43He's a gentleman.
0:47:43 > 0:47:45A gentleman fits in any place.
0:47:45 > 0:47:47A sponge fits in any place.
0:47:47 > 0:47:52To me, when a person's a stranger, they should act a little strange.
0:47:52 > 0:47:55I bet.
0:47:55 > 0:47:56I call.
0:48:16 > 0:48:18I'm afraid you're too good for me.
0:48:18 > 0:48:20I see. I got two pair.
0:48:20 > 0:48:22Oh, it's yours.
0:48:22 > 0:48:24I win, I win, I win.
0:48:24 > 0:48:26How much do I owe?
0:48:26 > 0:48:28Uh...I think 27 cents.
0:48:28 > 0:48:32- Fine bunch of crooks I introduced you to!- 11 for me.
0:48:32 > 0:48:35We had a little more practice is all.
0:48:35 > 0:48:38Fanny, I'm so happy for your success.
0:48:38 > 0:48:41Only one thing could make me happier.
0:48:41 > 0:48:44To dance at your wedding.
0:48:44 > 0:48:46Come on, children, sit down!
0:48:46 > 0:48:48Talk a little.
0:48:49 > 0:48:51SHE MOUTHS
0:48:54 > 0:48:59Should I murder her now or wait till the party's over?
0:48:59 > 0:49:02- Now.- No, I like her!
0:49:02 > 0:49:06Besides, I've been waiting for a chance to be alone with you.
0:49:06 > 0:49:08Where does that go?
0:49:08 > 0:49:10Uh...it's the alley.
0:49:12 > 0:49:15Come.
0:49:22 > 0:49:24Alone at last!
0:49:24 > 0:49:26Fanny, congratulations!
0:49:26 > 0:49:28Thanks, Mrs Nadler.
0:49:28 > 0:49:29I had to get up for the baby.
0:49:29 > 0:49:32He's a midnight fisherman!
0:49:32 > 0:49:33He'll outgrow it.
0:49:34 > 0:49:36Alone at last.
0:49:38 > 0:49:40That's Henry Street.
0:49:40 > 0:49:43Everybody worries about everybody.
0:49:43 > 0:49:46But it is my home, and I love people caring about me.
0:49:46 > 0:49:49How could anyone HELP caring about you?
0:49:51 > 0:49:55- Why, because I'm funny? - Well, that's part of it.
0:49:59 > 0:50:01You know, it's a funny thing.
0:50:01 > 0:50:05I've imagined you practically all over the world.
0:50:05 > 0:50:07Paris, London, the Delaware Water Gap.
0:50:07 > 0:50:10Every place except Henry Street.
0:50:10 > 0:50:13- And here you are. - You've imagined me?
0:50:13 > 0:50:16Well, I mean, I thought about you a lot.
0:50:16 > 0:50:19Maybe it was your ruffled shirt.
0:50:19 > 0:50:24You're like a character in a book to me, and I haven't read many books.
0:50:24 > 0:50:26So, that makes you kind of um...
0:50:28 > 0:50:30I talk a lot, don't I?
0:50:30 > 0:50:35Yes. But it's one of the things I like best about you.
0:50:35 > 0:50:37Boy, have you got good manners!
0:50:39 > 0:50:41Your turn say something.
0:50:41 > 0:50:43All right.
0:50:43 > 0:50:47All these people who care about you by the blockfull and theatrefull...
0:50:47 > 0:50:52doesn't it ever narrow down to just one special person?
0:50:52 > 0:50:55You mean like a boyfriend? LAUGHS
0:50:55 > 0:50:58I haven't had time.
0:50:58 > 0:51:03Don't get me wrong I know a million guys. After all, I am in the theatre.
0:51:03 > 0:51:06Oh, yes.
0:51:06 > 0:51:08Well, see...
0:51:08 > 0:51:10I've been very busy and, uh...
0:51:10 > 0:51:12HE CHUCKLES
0:51:12 > 0:51:15How about you? Hundreds of girls?
0:51:15 > 0:51:16Oh, thousands.
0:51:16 > 0:51:18All gorgeous.
0:51:18 > 0:51:20All gorgeous.
0:51:20 > 0:51:23Well, tonight should be a nice change for you.
0:51:27 > 0:51:28It is.
0:51:35 > 0:51:38- Thousands. Wow! - That way I don't get too involved.
0:51:38 > 0:51:40I like to feel free.
0:51:41 > 0:51:44You can get lonesome being that free.
0:51:44 > 0:51:47You can get lonesome being that busy.
0:51:49 > 0:51:53Who would think to look at us that we've got the same problem?
0:51:55 > 0:51:57# We travel single, oh...
0:52:00 > 0:52:02# Maybe we're lucky
0:52:03 > 0:52:05# But I don't know
0:52:07 > 0:52:10# With them, just let one kid fall down
0:52:10 > 0:52:12# And seven mothers faint
0:52:14 > 0:52:17# I guess we're both happy
0:52:18 > 0:52:21# But maybe...
0:52:21 > 0:52:23# We ain't
0:52:29 > 0:52:30# People
0:52:33 > 0:52:37# People who need people
0:52:39 > 0:52:49# Are the luckiest people in the world
0:52:51 > 0:53:00# We're children needing other children
0:53:00 > 0:53:07# And yet letting our grown-up pride
0:53:07 > 0:53:11# Hide all the need inside
0:53:11 > 0:53:16# Acting more like children
0:53:16 > 0:53:19# Than children
0:53:23 > 0:53:26# Lovers
0:53:26 > 0:53:31# Are very special people
0:53:32 > 0:53:42# They're the luckiest people in the world
0:53:42 > 0:53:46# With one person
0:53:47 > 0:53:52# One very special person
0:53:52 > 0:54:01# A feeling deep in your soul says you were half, now you're whole
0:54:01 > 0:54:06# No more hunger and thirst
0:54:06 > 0:54:11# But first, be a person who needs people
0:54:11 > 0:54:18# People who need people
0:54:18 > 0:54:26# Are the luckiest people
0:54:26 > 0:54:34# In the world. #
0:54:49 > 0:54:52Fanny, you're an enchanting girl.
0:54:52 > 0:54:55I wish I could get to know you better.
0:54:55 > 0:54:59So, give me six good reasons why not.
0:54:59 > 0:55:05Just one. I have to catch a train for Kentucky early in the morning.
0:55:06 > 0:55:08What's in Kentucky?
0:55:08 > 0:55:11Oh, a half interest in a little farm.
0:55:11 > 0:55:13I breed horses.
0:55:13 > 0:55:14They can't do it alone?
0:55:14 > 0:55:16CHUCKLES
0:55:19 > 0:55:21Hey, are you all packed?
0:55:21 > 0:55:23It's late. I'll walk you to your car.
0:55:23 > 0:55:27- I should say good night. - No, I'll say it for you.
0:55:33 > 0:55:38You know, if you weren't in a show, I think I'd have asked you to come.
0:55:38 > 0:55:44What with the Follies and an indecent proposal, it's been quite a night.
0:55:45 > 0:55:47It WAS indecent, wasn't it?
0:55:47 > 0:55:49Very.
0:55:49 > 0:55:53Thank God. I can tell Mrs Strakosh things are looking up.
0:55:53 > 0:55:55May I call you when I come back?
0:55:55 > 0:55:57Yeah, sure. When's that?
0:55:57 > 0:55:59I don't know exactly.
0:55:59 > 0:56:03I may go on to Europe. Or the coast.
0:56:05 > 0:56:09I never have definite plans they make me feel too tied down.
0:56:09 > 0:56:11But I'll call you.
0:56:52 > 0:56:54Goodbye.
0:57:26 > 0:57:28HUMS QUIETLY
0:57:39 > 0:57:44# A feeling deep in your soul
0:57:44 > 0:57:49# Says you were half, now you're whole
0:57:49 > 0:57:54# No more hunger and thirst
0:57:54 > 0:58:01# But first, be a person who needs people
0:58:01 > 0:58:08# People who need people
0:58:08 > 0:58:13# Are the luckiest...
0:58:13 > 0:58:15# People
0:58:17 > 0:58:28# In the world. #
0:58:56 > 0:58:59- Are you the Ziegfeld girls? - You can't tell?!
0:58:59 > 0:59:03All right, line up over here. Over there, that's it.
0:59:03 > 0:59:07Conductor, baby, what time is it and where are we?
0:59:07 > 0:59:11It's 7:00am, Miss, and we're in Baltimore.
0:59:11 > 0:59:13Baltimore?
0:59:13 > 0:59:15Girls, just a second now.
0:59:15 > 0:59:17All right, girls, that's it.
0:59:17 > 0:59:19Smile pretty. Hold it.
0:59:19 > 0:59:23Good! All right, girls, hold it!
0:59:23 > 0:59:25Now, where's that new star...
0:59:25 > 0:59:27uh...Fanny Brice?
0:59:27 > 0:59:29Enter the star(!)
0:59:29 > 0:59:33Miss Brice? Hold it. Perfect. This should just take a minute.
0:59:37 > 0:59:39How about a smile, Miss Brice?
0:59:47 > 0:59:50So shoot the picture!
0:59:50 > 0:59:52Now!
0:59:52 > 0:59:54- Oh, very good!- Great!
0:59:54 > 0:59:56Perfect. I love it.
1:00:19 > 1:00:20Fanny!
1:00:20 > 1:00:22Fanny...
1:00:22 > 1:00:24How wonderful to see you!
1:00:24 > 1:00:27And how wonderful you look.
1:00:28 > 1:00:32You look good, too. First time I've seen you in daylight.
1:00:32 > 1:00:36You haven't changed. And I'm glad. Do you know how long it's been?
1:00:36 > 1:00:38Just a year.
1:00:38 > 1:00:40And two weeks.
1:00:42 > 1:00:45- What are you doing here? - Waiting for the New York train.
1:00:45 > 1:00:48- My train?- That's right.
1:00:48 > 1:00:51Fanny, will you have dinner with me tonight,
1:00:51 > 1:00:55tell me all about Mrs Strakosh? And about you.
1:00:55 > 1:00:57Well, when a fella gets up at seven to...
1:00:57 > 1:00:59No, I came to meet another girl.
1:00:59 > 1:01:01Elsie.
1:01:01 > 1:01:05That's good, because I have other plans. Have dinner with her.
1:01:05 > 1:01:07It'll be very dull.
1:01:07 > 1:01:09Hmm?
1:01:09 > 1:01:10There she is now.
1:01:16 > 1:01:20Thanks, Jack. I'll see you at the stables.
1:01:20 > 1:01:23- That's my girl Elsie. - Skinny legs, like mine.
1:01:28 > 1:01:31How about dinner? Will you, Fanny?
1:01:31 > 1:01:34You always ask me out, don't you?
1:01:34 > 1:01:36Whenever you happen to run into me.
1:01:36 > 1:01:39I've never known anyone so polite.
1:01:39 > 1:01:42- Fanny, I... - But I still have other plans.
1:01:42 > 1:01:45And I really must go. Thanks, anyway.
1:01:45 > 1:01:47Fanny?
1:01:47 > 1:01:52I can't give up this easily. We've such a lot to catch up on.
1:01:52 > 1:01:55Where are you staying? Majestic?
1:01:55 > 1:01:59There's a nice little private dining room downstairs.
1:01:59 > 1:02:01I'll reserve it for 8 o'clock.
1:02:01 > 1:02:03I'll be waiting.
1:02:04 > 1:02:06No law against waiting.
1:02:06 > 1:02:08People do it all the time.
1:02:15 > 1:02:17"No law against waiting," I said.
1:02:17 > 1:02:19"People do it all the time."
1:02:21 > 1:02:23You should have heard me!
1:02:23 > 1:02:27For once in my life, just once, I didn't say too much or too little.
1:02:27 > 1:02:29I said just enough. Then I walked.
1:02:31 > 1:02:34Do you like these flowers in my hair?
1:02:34 > 1:02:38Why should I have dinner with him? I'm not even hungry.
1:02:38 > 1:02:42Even if I was hungry I don't need him to buy my dinner.
1:02:42 > 1:02:44Then why are you going?
1:02:44 > 1:02:46Huh?
1:02:46 > 1:02:49- I said wh... - Who said I was going?
1:03:13 > 1:03:15Won't you please come in?
1:03:22 > 1:03:24May I take your wrap?
1:03:29 > 1:03:32That colour looks wonderful with your eyes.
1:03:32 > 1:03:37Just my right eye I hate what it does to the left.
1:03:45 > 1:03:48Are you planning to make advances?
1:03:52 > 1:03:55I wasn't planning it... but it does seem possible.
1:03:58 > 1:04:00Before dinner or after dinner?
1:04:00 > 1:04:02You look beautiful.
1:04:05 > 1:04:08Don't make leading-lady dialogue for me! I'm a comic.
1:04:08 > 1:04:09On stage.
1:04:09 > 1:04:12That's where I live. On stage.
1:04:12 > 1:04:14Then you're missing too much.
1:04:15 > 1:04:19Well, uh...you said we had a lot to catch up on.
1:04:19 > 1:04:23The Follies have a week here and a week in Chicago.
1:04:23 > 1:04:25Then we rehearse a new show. And you?
1:04:25 > 1:04:29My girl Elsie's running in Baltimore next Friday.
1:04:29 > 1:04:34After that I'm not sure because...
1:04:31 > 1:04:34You never have definite plans. I remember.
1:04:36 > 1:04:39Somebody laid an egg on your table.
1:04:39 > 1:04:41What is it?
1:04:41 > 1:04:44A blue marble egg. I got it in Rome.
1:04:44 > 1:04:49It's one of my favourite things, so I thought you might like it.
1:04:55 > 1:04:58Blue marble egg and...yellow roses.
1:04:58 > 1:05:03You went to a lot of trouble even though you weren't sure I would come.
1:05:03 > 1:05:08I hoped you would. Just as I hope you like very dry sherry.
1:05:08 > 1:05:10I wouldn't know dry from wet.
1:05:34 > 1:05:36GURGLES
1:05:39 > 1:05:42Fanny, what are you so angry about?
1:05:42 > 1:05:44GASPING Who's angry?
1:05:45 > 1:05:48Who's angry?
1:05:48 > 1:05:52Sorry to disappoint you, but what did you expect?
1:05:52 > 1:05:54You didn't answer my question. Why are you so angry?
1:05:54 > 1:05:58I am not angry! You answer this.
1:05:58 > 1:06:00Did you think I should be flattered
1:06:00 > 1:06:04because this time your train isn't leaving in the morning?
1:06:04 > 1:06:08I'm not a kid at Keeney's. You're not slumming any more.
1:06:08 > 1:06:09I never was.
1:06:09 > 1:06:12- Don't holler at me! - I'm not hollering you are.
1:06:12 > 1:06:14Well, I'm a natural hollerer.
1:06:14 > 1:06:17Anyway, I answered your silly question.
1:06:17 > 1:06:19Let's get to the point,
1:06:19 > 1:06:24which is - why didn't I call you when I got back from Kentucky?
1:06:25 > 1:06:27Well, you got busy.
1:06:27 > 1:06:29You, uh...forgot.
1:06:29 > 1:06:32There could be a hundred reasons.
1:06:32 > 1:06:34Just one.
1:06:34 > 1:06:37I wanted to stay away from you.
1:06:40 > 1:06:43We were heading to something...
1:06:43 > 1:06:47you couldn't possibly have known how to handle.
1:06:51 > 1:06:54What makes you think I do now?
1:06:56 > 1:06:59If you don't, it's time you learned.
1:07:06 > 1:07:09Um...
1:07:09 > 1:07:11maybe we should order now?
1:07:21 > 1:07:24Are you sure you want to stay?
1:07:24 > 1:07:27Well, uh...
1:07:28 > 1:07:30..I might as well have dinner.
1:07:31 > 1:07:33Very sensible.
1:07:33 > 1:07:34KNOCK ON DOOR
1:07:34 > 1:07:36Come in.
1:07:36 > 1:07:39Ah, Paul, I think we're about ready now.
1:07:39 > 1:07:41Madame.
1:07:41 > 1:07:44Caviar to begin with?
1:07:44 > 1:07:46No, I don't think so.
1:07:47 > 1:07:48Pate Strasbourg?
1:07:48 > 1:07:51- Mmm.- Good.
1:07:53 > 1:07:55Then we'll have filet de boeuf, sauce bordelaise.
1:07:55 > 1:07:57Saignant?
1:07:57 > 1:08:01Saignant. Pommes soufflees, salade d'endives.
1:08:01 > 1:08:02Avec une vinaigrette?
1:08:02 > 1:08:05- Very good, Paul. - Et comme dessert, fraises de bois?
1:08:05 > 1:08:07Very good. Thank you.
1:08:09 > 1:08:10All right?
1:08:10 > 1:08:14I would have ordered roast beef and potatoes.
1:08:15 > 1:08:16I did.
1:08:21 > 1:08:23What's the matter?
1:08:23 > 1:08:25If I can't tell what you're ordering,
1:08:25 > 1:08:28how will I know when you're making advances?
1:08:28 > 1:08:30I'll be much more direct.
1:08:30 > 1:08:32You...
1:08:32 > 1:08:35# Are woman
1:08:35 > 1:08:38# I am man
1:08:38 > 1:08:41# You are smaller
1:08:41 > 1:08:45# So I can be taller than
1:08:46 > 1:08:52# You are softer to the touch
1:08:53 > 1:08:59# It's a feeling I like feeling very much
1:09:02 > 1:09:09# You are someone I've admired
1:09:09 > 1:09:15# Still, our friendship leaves something to be desired
1:09:17 > 1:09:21# Does it take more explanation than this?
1:09:23 > 1:09:26# You are woman, I am man
1:09:27 > 1:09:29# Let's kiss... #
1:09:31 > 1:09:32KNOCK AT DOOR
1:09:40 > 1:09:44'# Isn't this the height of nonchalance?
1:09:44 > 1:09:47'# Furnishing a bed in restaurants!
1:09:47 > 1:09:50'# Well, a bit of dinner never hurt
1:09:50 > 1:09:54'# But guess who is going to be dessert!
1:09:54 > 1:09:58'# Do good girls do just what Momma says
1:09:58 > 1:10:00'# When Momma's not around?
1:10:00 > 1:10:05'# It's a feeling Oy vey, what a feeling! #'
1:10:05 > 1:10:06A bit of pate?
1:10:06 > 1:10:08I drink it all day!
1:10:08 > 1:10:12'# Should I do the things he'll tell me to?
1:10:12 > 1:10:15'# In this pickle what would Sadie do?
1:10:15 > 1:10:19'# In my soul I feel an inner lack
1:10:19 > 1:10:22'# Just suppose he wants his dinner back?
1:10:29 > 1:10:33'# Just some dried-out toast in a sliver
1:10:33 > 1:10:38'# On the top... a little chopped liver! Oh! #
1:10:40 > 1:10:42Oh.
1:10:44 > 1:10:47HUMS UNEASILY
1:10:50 > 1:10:54# How many girls become a sinner
1:10:54 > 1:10:56# While waiting for a roast beef dinner?
1:10:56 > 1:11:01# Though most girls slip in ordinary ways
1:11:01 > 1:11:06# I got style, I do it bordelaise
1:11:06 > 1:11:08# Well, at least you think I'm special
1:11:08 > 1:11:10# You ordered a la carte
1:11:10 > 1:11:13# It's a feeling...
1:11:13 > 1:11:15# I like feeling very...
1:11:15 > 1:11:19# I feel the feeling down to my toes
1:11:19 > 1:11:23# Now I feel that there's a fire here
1:11:23 > 1:11:26# Ooh! Try that once a little higher, dear
1:11:26 > 1:11:30# What a beast, to ruin such a pearl
1:11:30 > 1:11:33# Would a convent take a Jewish girl?
1:11:57 > 1:12:03# Does it take more explanation than this?
1:12:07 > 1:12:15'# Ooh, the thrills and chills going through me!
1:12:15 > 1:12:17'# If I stop him now... #
1:12:17 > 1:12:19'Can he sue me?'
1:12:20 > 1:12:23# You are woman
1:12:23 > 1:12:27# You are man... #
1:12:27 > 1:12:29(Let's...)
1:12:42 > 1:12:44I'm calling you. What have you got?
1:12:46 > 1:12:48Ace of diamonds...
1:12:48 > 1:12:50jack of spades...
1:12:50 > 1:12:54nine of hearts, four of clubs and two of diamonds.
1:12:54 > 1:12:57Take it. I thought you were bluffing.
1:12:59 > 1:13:01What do you hear from Fanny?
1:13:01 > 1:13:04This morning she telephoned long distance.
1:13:04 > 1:13:06How did she sound?
1:13:06 > 1:13:10Huh! Three months on the road how do you think she sounded?
1:13:10 > 1:13:14- She sounded tired. - She didn't sound tired.
1:13:14 > 1:13:16Excuse me, I made a mistake.
1:13:16 > 1:13:18She sounded silly. She kept laughing.
1:13:18 > 1:13:20Maybe something take her comical?
1:13:20 > 1:13:24A mother says, "How are you?" That's so comical?
1:13:24 > 1:13:25She breaks out laughing.
1:13:25 > 1:13:29And Fanny, on the road, she lives like a mouse.
1:13:29 > 1:13:32Theatre, hotel never any fresh air.
1:13:32 > 1:13:35Suddenly, she's running up and down streets.
1:13:35 > 1:13:38Museums, race tracks, graveyards.
1:13:38 > 1:13:40Graveyards?!
1:13:40 > 1:13:42Do you think it could be a fella?
1:13:42 > 1:13:45- Think? I know.- Who?
1:13:47 > 1:13:49The ruffled shirt!
1:13:57 > 1:14:00Lady, if you're game for this one, he's on the house.
1:14:00 > 1:14:04Nobody in history ever had three.
1:14:05 > 1:14:07Start boiling the water!
1:14:17 > 1:14:21I'm so proud to think I introduced you to your first lobster.
1:14:21 > 1:14:24Among other things...
1:14:24 > 1:14:26Behave yourself!
1:14:34 > 1:14:39I get so mad when I think of what I missed before I met you.
1:14:39 > 1:14:41I played Baltimore before,
1:14:41 > 1:14:46but never realised it was the most beautiful city in the world.
1:14:46 > 1:14:50I wish you'd come with us tomorrow - see what you can do for Chicago.
1:14:50 > 1:14:53I was going to. I decided yesterday.
1:14:53 > 1:14:55Now I can't.
1:14:57 > 1:15:00What happened between then and now?
1:15:00 > 1:15:01You were there!
1:15:01 > 1:15:05Elsie lost the Baltimore Handicap, and I lost Elsie and my shirt.
1:15:07 > 1:15:11But I was watching you - you didn't blink an eye.
1:15:11 > 1:15:13You didn't lose your ruffled shirt?
1:15:13 > 1:15:17No, darling, I never lose that. Nor my gambling money.
1:15:17 > 1:15:18Just about everything else.
1:15:18 > 1:15:22So, I have to take a train for New York at midnight...
1:15:22 > 1:15:25and the Berengaria for Europe tomorrow night.
1:15:31 > 1:15:34Stop boiling the water I just lost my appetite.
1:15:36 > 1:15:38What's in Europe?
1:15:38 > 1:15:41It's what's on the boat TO Europe.
1:15:41 > 1:15:45A lot of bored men with nothing to do but play cards.
1:15:48 > 1:15:52You are going to Europe, so you can play cards on the BOAT?
1:15:52 > 1:15:54Fanny, that's how I live.
1:15:54 > 1:15:59I told you that on Henry Street and the first night we were here.
1:15:59 > 1:16:01Yes, yes.
1:16:01 > 1:16:03I know. I know it by heart.
1:16:05 > 1:16:08And uh... you don't have to worry.
1:16:08 > 1:16:10You're not involved.
1:16:10 > 1:16:12But I AM involved!
1:16:12 > 1:16:18With a girl who has her own work, is too busy to get lonesome.
1:16:20 > 1:16:23So, we wave to each other from boats and trains?
1:16:26 > 1:16:28I'd better get to the theatre.
1:16:33 > 1:16:35Yes, sir.
1:16:37 > 1:16:39GULLS CRY
1:16:49 > 1:16:51Fanny, please don't look sad.
1:16:52 > 1:16:56You walk back into my life, change everything and walk out again?
1:16:56 > 1:16:58How should I look, happy?
1:16:58 > 1:17:00I'll be back in your life very soon.
1:17:00 > 1:17:02Yeah, like last time.
1:17:02 > 1:17:06- Not a bit like last time. - So, what's different?
1:17:06 > 1:17:08I love you.
1:17:10 > 1:17:12Do you mean that?
1:17:13 > 1:17:16You're not just trying to be polite?
1:17:24 > 1:17:27You do mean it! What do you know?
1:17:31 > 1:17:34It's been the most beautiful week in my life.
1:17:39 > 1:17:45Fanny...I should hurry if I'm to drop you and catch that train.
1:17:45 > 1:17:49Well, why don't you...um... pick me up at the theatre?
1:17:49 > 1:17:51I'll go to the station with you.
1:17:51 > 1:17:53Why not? Are you afraid I'll cry?
1:17:53 > 1:17:55No, I'm afraid I will.
1:18:26 > 1:18:30So, where have you been since six o'clock this morning?
1:18:30 > 1:18:32Walking. Just walking.
1:18:34 > 1:18:38Honey, if you're going to die every time you say goodbye to a man...
1:18:38 > 1:18:39Calling Miss Brice! Miss Fanny Brice?
1:18:39 > 1:18:41Right here!
1:18:41 > 1:18:43- Miss Brice?- Yeah.
1:18:49 > 1:18:52You feel better now?
1:18:52 > 1:18:55Yeah. Yeah. Better.
1:18:56 > 1:18:59Thank you. Wait a minute.
1:18:59 > 1:19:01Thank you.
1:19:01 > 1:19:04- Thank you.- Thank you.
1:19:04 > 1:19:06- Thank you!- Ten dollars?!
1:19:06 > 1:19:08From the last five-cent tipper?
1:19:08 > 1:19:11I should have made it twenty.
1:19:11 > 1:19:13Emma! Emma! Where's Emma?
1:19:13 > 1:19:15What is it, Fanny? >
1:19:16 > 1:19:18I am not going to die, that's all.
1:19:18 > 1:19:21And I'm not going to Chicago, either.
1:19:21 > 1:19:23Are you out of your mind? >
1:19:23 > 1:19:24What will you tell Ziegfeld?
1:19:24 > 1:19:28I don't know. Get him on the phone?
1:19:28 > 1:19:32Emma! Emma! Where's Emma? Have you seen her? Where is she?
1:19:32 > 1:19:33Miss Fanny?
1:19:33 > 1:19:35Be an angel. Hold these.
1:19:35 > 1:19:39I'm only taking that bag and that one I'm not going to Chicago.
1:19:39 > 1:19:42What do you mean not go to Chicago?
1:19:42 > 1:19:44Well, where are you going?
1:19:44 > 1:19:49- ANNOUNCER:- "Empire Limited, departing for New York at 8:30am."
1:19:49 > 1:19:51Fanny!
1:19:51 > 1:19:54- "Now boarding at track 14." - I told him.
1:19:54 > 1:19:57Talk to her, Miss Georgia. Please!
1:19:57 > 1:20:00You can't talk to Fanny about anything.
1:20:00 > 1:20:03- Who's she talking to?- Ziegfeld.
1:20:03 > 1:20:05Flo, you don't need me.
1:20:05 > 1:20:09You have four other good names and the tour ends in two weeks.
1:20:09 > 1:20:11Flo... Flo!
1:20:11 > 1:20:13That's the most unprofessional...
1:20:13 > 1:20:15Flo!
1:20:15 > 1:20:17SCREECH OF FEEDBACK
1:20:17 > 1:20:19Hello?
1:20:19 > 1:20:22Flo, simmer down and spare your ulcer.
1:20:22 > 1:20:25That's funny. YOU gave me that ulcer!
1:20:25 > 1:20:31Now, listen, Flo. I love applause, but you can't take an audience home.
1:20:31 > 1:20:35I want a personal life, and I'm going to have it.
1:20:42 > 1:20:44- What did he say?- He hung up.
1:20:47 > 1:20:50Ladies of the ensemble, adieu!
1:20:50 > 1:20:52What?! Where are you going?
1:20:52 > 1:20:54- New York.- Why?
1:20:54 > 1:20:55I'm going to Europe with Nick.
1:20:55 > 1:20:57Fanny, you're kidding!
1:20:57 > 1:20:59I'm not. I've met a guy I want.
1:20:59 > 1:21:01Fanny, did Nick ask you to go?
1:21:03 > 1:21:08No, but er... When he sees me, he'll be glad. I hope.
1:21:08 > 1:21:10Fanny!
1:21:12 > 1:21:16One ticket on the Empire Limited, now boarding at track 14.
1:21:16 > 1:21:18Fanny, haven't you any pride?
1:21:18 > 1:21:21I guess not. I want to be with him.
1:21:21 > 1:21:25- You're making a fool of yourself. - I'm doing it. It's right for me.
1:21:25 > 1:21:28But is it right for Nick?
1:21:28 > 1:21:29I'll MAKE it right for him!
1:21:29 > 1:21:31CHORUS OF REMONSTRATION
1:21:34 > 1:21:37Don't tell me!
1:21:37 > 1:21:39# Don't tell me not to live, just sit and putter
1:21:39 > 1:21:42# Life's candy and the sun's a ball of butter
1:21:42 > 1:21:48# Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade!
1:21:48 > 1:21:51# Don't tell me not to fly I've simply got to
1:21:51 > 1:21:54# If someone takes a spill It's me and not you
1:21:54 > 1:21:58# Who told you you're allowed to rain on my parade?

1:22:14 > 1:22:17# But whether I'm the rose of sheer perfection
1:22:17 > 1:22:20# A freckle on the nose of life's complexion
1:22:20 > 1:22:26# The cinder or the shiny apple of its eye
1:22:26 > 1:22:29# I got to fly once I got to try once
1:22:29 > 1:22:32# Only can die once right, sir?
1:22:32 > 1:22:35# Ooh, life is juicy Juicy and you'll see

1:24:03 > 1:24:06# Get ready for me, love, cos I'm a comer
1:24:06 > 1:24:08# I simply got to march, my heart's a drummer

1:25:06 > 1:25:09Fanny!
1:25:09 > 1:25:10Darling!
1:25:21 > 1:25:27If you hadn't looked the way you did, this could have been embarrassing!
1:25:31 > 1:25:35You crazy girl! What are you doing here?
1:25:35 > 1:25:40Well, I figured that... if I waited for to make...
1:25:40 > 1:25:44your fortune, how would you know I wasn't after you for your money?
1:25:44 > 1:25:48Nick, I promise I'll never tie you down. I promise.
1:25:51 > 1:25:54< COUGHS DISCREETLY
1:25:54 > 1:25:56Will that be all, sir?
1:25:56 > 1:25:57Yes, steward, thank you.
1:25:57 > 1:26:00Thank you, sir.
1:26:00 > 1:26:05I say, I caught your show last time I was in port. You were marvellous.
1:26:05 > 1:26:07IMITATING HIS ACCENT Oh, thank you.
1:26:07 > 1:26:09Just ring if you need me, Mr Brice.
1:26:15 > 1:26:17STRING QUARTET
1:26:40 > 1:26:42Thank you.
1:26:42 > 1:26:43Chivas, Mr Arnstein?
1:26:43 > 1:26:45Yes, perfect. And...
1:26:45 > 1:26:48- creme de menthe frappe.- Yes, sir.
1:26:48 > 1:26:51- All right? - Oui, oui, mon cheri.
1:26:51 > 1:26:55Mmm! I like that captain's beard. Makes him look trustworthy.
1:26:55 > 1:27:00He wants me to bring you to his cabin tomorrow for cocktails.
1:27:00 > 1:27:03- You're a success, and that's off stage.- I'm with you.
1:27:05 > 1:27:08- I don't know how I ever thought of going without you.- Me neither.
1:27:10 > 1:27:12- Nick, um...- Yes?
1:27:12 > 1:27:13Go on, say it.
1:27:13 > 1:27:18Oh. Well... You went to good schools, I went to no schools.
1:27:18 > 1:27:20You're Park Avenue, I'm Lower East Side.
1:27:20 > 1:27:22Now, now, don't be a snob.
1:27:24 > 1:27:27No, what I am...trying to say is...
1:27:27 > 1:27:31And you don't have to. I mean, I'm all yours anyway.
1:27:31 > 1:27:38But...um... Well, where I come from, on Henry Street, when two people...
1:27:39 > 1:27:43- ..sort of...love each other... - Mm-hm?
1:27:44 > 1:27:46Oh, never mind, nothing.
1:27:46 > 1:27:50Well, what do they do when they sort of love each other?
1:27:53 > 1:27:56Oh...one of them says... "Why don't we get married?"
1:27:57 > 1:28:00Is that so?
1:28:01 > 1:28:04- Yeah. Sometimes it's even the man. - Really?
1:28:04 > 1:28:07Look, forget the whole thing. Forget I mentioned it.
1:28:08 > 1:28:10All right. Ah, thank you.
1:28:13 > 1:28:16You know, it's pretty much the same where I come from.
1:28:21 > 1:28:24Would you stop making jokes and say it? Say it!
1:28:24 > 1:28:28Then I can think it over or ask my mother or turn you down.
1:28:28 > 1:28:30I've got a better idea.
1:28:30 > 1:28:32What's that?
1:28:32 > 1:28:34- Have your drink.- Have my drink!
1:28:35 > 1:28:37Look, why don't we, er...
1:28:37 > 1:28:39get married?
1:28:42 > 1:28:46When? Here? Tonight? That captain looks like a rabbi.
1:28:46 > 1:28:48How? When? Tonight?
1:28:48 > 1:28:50When I make a bankroll.
1:28:50 > 1:28:54- No, I don't care about that. - I intend to be head of this family.
1:28:54 > 1:28:57- You will be you're smarter. - It will be as I say or not at all.
1:28:57 > 1:29:01Well, could you win what you need in that poker game tonight?
1:29:02 > 1:29:06- It's possible.- So go play cards! I want to be a Sadie.
1:29:06 > 1:29:08What?
1:29:08 > 1:29:12You met Mrs Strakosh's married daughter Sadie.
1:29:12 > 1:29:14That's a married lady.
1:29:14 > 1:29:16- Oh, I see! - Can I come and watch with you?
1:29:19 > 1:29:21My future depends on it. Please!
1:29:25 > 1:29:29Can you watch with no expression at all, whatever happens?
1:29:31 > 1:29:33Can I watch with no expression?
1:29:34 > 1:29:37I pass.
1:29:39 > 1:29:41I'll call.
1:29:41 > 1:29:43I call.
1:29:43 > 1:29:44I pass.
1:29:44 > 1:29:46I call.
1:29:46 > 1:29:49I'll call.
1:29:49 > 1:29:52- Cards?- Just one, please.
1:29:52 > 1:29:53One. Thank you.
1:29:57 > 1:29:58Three here.
1:29:58 > 1:29:59- Three.- Two.
1:30:01 > 1:30:03Two.
1:30:03 > 1:30:05The dealer takes three.
1:30:06 > 1:30:08Up to the opener.
1:30:13 > 1:30:15Opener checks.
1:30:16 > 1:30:18Oh, I'll bet a thousand.
1:30:22 > 1:30:24I'm out.
1:30:28 > 1:30:30All right.
1:30:31 > 1:30:331,000 and...
1:30:35 > 1:30:372,000 more.
1:30:40 > 1:30:42I'm out.
1:30:55 > 1:30:58Well, I think you are bluffing, Mr Arnstein.
1:31:05 > 1:31:07So I'll see you.
1:31:09 > 1:31:11I've got three kings here.
1:31:14 > 1:31:17I thought you were bluffing!
1:31:17 > 1:31:21In this distinguished and expert company? I wouldn't dare.
1:31:23 > 1:31:28- I'm afraid this is dull for you, darling.- Oh, yeah.
1:31:28 > 1:31:30- Gentlemen, I'll be right back. - Good night.
1:31:30 > 1:31:32- ALL:- Good night.
1:31:34 > 1:31:36Quit, quit, quit!
1:31:36 > 1:31:39It's against my religion to break a winning streak.
1:31:43 > 1:31:44Goodbye, Sadie.
1:31:48 > 1:31:50Sorry, gentlemen.
1:32:01 > 1:32:03Agh!
1:32:15 > 1:32:17What happened?
1:32:18 > 1:32:21It's a beautiful night.
1:32:21 > 1:32:25- I had a little stroll round the deck. Did me a lot of good.- Nick!
1:32:29 > 1:32:33It's terribly late, Sadie. You should be in bed.
1:32:33 > 1:32:36How could I go to bed? I've been sitting, waiting...
1:32:43 > 1:32:46D-d-did you say Sadie?
1:32:54 > 1:32:57GIGGLES IN EXCITEMENT
1:32:59 > 1:33:00BELLS PEAL OUT OVER THE MUSIC
1:33:00 > 1:33:04# Mrs Arnstein! Mrs Arnstein!
1:33:04 > 1:33:09# What a beautiful, beautiful name!
1:33:17 > 1:33:22# Sadie, Sadie, married lady
1:33:24 > 1:33:29# See what's on my hand
1:33:31 > 1:33:34# There's nothing quite as touching
1:33:36 > 1:33:39# As a...
1:33:39 > 1:33:42# As a...simple wedding band
1:33:42 > 1:33:47# Oh how that marriage licence works
1:33:47 > 1:33:51# On chambermaids and hotel clerks
1:33:51 > 1:33:54# The honeymoon was such delight
1:33:54 > 1:33:58# That we got married that same night
1:33:58 > 1:34:03# I'm Sadie, Sadie, married lady
1:34:03 > 1:34:05# Sadie, you did the trick!
1:34:07 > 1:34:11# Not every girl can get herself
1:34:11 > 1:34:15# A guy who looks like Nick
1:34:15 > 1:34:19# To tell the truth, it hurt my pride
1:34:20 > 1:34:24# The groom was prettier than the bride
1:34:24 > 1:34:29# I'm Sadie, Sadie, married lady that's me!
1:34:36 > 1:34:40# We're sailing home, so, Rosie, dear
1:34:40 > 1:34:44# Bring chicken soup down to the pier
1:34:44 > 1:34:49# Sadie, Sadie, married lady that's me! #
1:35:06 > 1:35:11Honey, if this is a hotel I don't think they're ready for us.
1:35:12 > 1:35:14Oh, Nick!
1:35:14 > 1:35:16Oh, Nick!
1:35:16 > 1:35:18It must have cost a fortune.
1:35:18 > 1:35:21I made a fortune on the Epsom Derby.
1:35:21 > 1:35:25I should make another with the Florida deal. So don't worry!
1:35:25 > 1:35:28Who's worried? Anyway, it's the perfect house for a millionaire.
1:35:28 > 1:35:33# And for Sadie, Sadie, married lady
1:35:33 > 1:35:36# Meet our mortgagee
1:35:36 > 1:35:39# The owner of an ice-box
1:35:39 > 1:35:42# With a ten-year guarantee
1:35:43 > 1:35:47# Oh, sit me in the softest seat
1:35:47 > 1:35:51# Quick, a cushion for my feet!
1:35:51 > 1:35:55# Do for me, buy for me! Lift me, carry me!
1:35:55 > 1:35:58# Finally got a guy to marry me
1:35:58 > 1:36:02# I do my nails, read up on sales
1:36:02 > 1:36:05# All day the records play
1:36:05 > 1:36:08# Then he comes home, I tell him...
1:36:08 > 1:36:12# Oy, what a day I had today!
1:36:12 > 1:36:16# I swear I'll do my wifely job
1:36:16 > 1:36:19# Just sit at home, become a slob
1:36:26 > 1:36:30# A husband, a house
1:36:30 > 1:36:36# And a beautiful reflection
1:36:36 > 1:36:42# Of my love's affection
1:36:42 > 1:36:45# Sadie, Sadie
1:36:48 > 1:36:51# Married lady
1:36:51 > 1:36:54# That's me. #
1:36:59 > 1:37:01BABY CRYING
1:37:01 > 1:37:04Nice baby. Look at your daddy.
1:37:06 > 1:37:07Here, baby. Here, baby.
1:37:07 > 1:37:09Baby!
1:37:13 > 1:37:16Here, I bought her something. A pearl necklace.
1:37:16 > 1:37:18A tooth necklace...
1:37:18 > 1:37:21Oh, Nick, you are absolutely crazy!
1:37:21 > 1:37:24She won't be able to wear this till she's grown up.
1:37:24 > 1:37:26Having it will give her confidence.
1:37:26 > 1:37:31And if you play your cards right, she might loan it to you until then.
1:37:31 > 1:37:35Mmm, you bet she will! Won't you?
1:37:35 > 1:37:38- One more!- Oh, please!- 16...
1:37:38 > 1:37:42Look at me, I'm breathing like a whale.
1:37:42 > 1:37:45The way that baby slowed me down I ought to sue her!
1:37:45 > 1:37:48She's so pretty, isn't she, Eddie?
1:37:48 > 1:37:51Frances? She's the cutest! Alive, alert...
1:37:51 > 1:37:53But she's pretty.
1:37:53 > 1:37:57Yes, Fan, she's pretty. Very pretty. Come on.
1:37:57 > 1:38:00Ziegfeld made no mistake hiring you.
1:38:00 > 1:38:02Heard from Nick lately?
1:38:02 > 1:38:04Yeah, he calls me every night.
1:38:04 > 1:38:08- From Oklahoma?! - With the bills, he better strike oil!
1:38:09 > 1:38:11Come on, let's try this.
1:38:13 > 1:38:15Let's go. One-two-three, one-two-three.
1:38:15 > 1:38:17One, two, three, four!
1:38:17 > 1:38:19- Ooh, I'm giddy!- One-two-three...
1:38:25 > 1:38:28CAR ENGINE
1:38:30 > 1:38:31Nick!
1:38:39 > 1:38:41Nick!
1:38:48 > 1:38:49I can't believe this!
1:38:51 > 1:38:53- There you are.- Thank you very much.
1:38:53 > 1:38:55BABY GRUMBLES
1:38:55 > 1:38:59Is that ghastly sound coming from my daughter?
1:38:59 > 1:39:02What is it, honey? sweetheart!
1:39:02 > 1:39:05- Welcome home, Mr Arnstein. - Emma, it's good to see you.
1:39:05 > 1:39:08What happened, what happened? Look who's here!
1:39:08 > 1:39:13Frances, that's not attractive, dear. I wish you'd stop.
1:39:15 > 1:39:17Thank you, sweetheart.
1:39:18 > 1:39:21You stayed blonde, you clever girl.
1:39:21 > 1:39:23Miss Fanny, we'll be late.
1:39:23 > 1:39:27A few more minutes. Em, would you take the baby up to Hilda?
1:39:29 > 1:39:31- Goodbye, my love.- Say bye-bye.
1:39:36 > 1:39:41Do you know what? This time, I think maybe you lost your ruffled shirt.
1:39:45 > 1:39:48We struck sand and rock and water...
1:39:48 > 1:39:50I think we even struck champagne.
1:39:50 > 1:39:52The thing we didn't strike was oil.
1:39:52 > 1:39:57You'll think of something bigger and better relaxing here.
1:40:01 > 1:40:03It is beautiful, isn't it?
1:40:08 > 1:40:13I tell you, it's been murder going to and from the theatre each day.
1:40:16 > 1:40:18You've guessed it.
1:40:20 > 1:40:23We'd better look for an apartment. On Fifth Avenue.
1:40:23 > 1:40:25Even on Sixth I wouldn't be insulted.
1:40:25 > 1:40:28You know what bothers me more than losing the house?
1:40:28 > 1:40:31I seem to have lost my poker face.
1:40:32 > 1:40:35Just to me, honey. Come on.
1:40:35 > 1:40:36MURMUR OF CONVERSATION
1:40:57 > 1:40:59Nick!
1:40:59 > 1:41:02Tom! The place looks wonderful.
1:41:02 > 1:41:05A church can look cute, but a gambling house must look honest.
1:41:05 > 1:41:07- And- be- honest!
1:41:07 > 1:41:10Come on in here.
1:41:10 > 1:41:13Say, Nick, I was sorry to hear about those oil wells.
1:41:16 > 1:41:18Is it all over town, Tom?
1:41:18 > 1:41:21Even made the papers.
1:41:21 > 1:41:23But that doesn't mean anything.
1:41:23 > 1:41:25It's funny, though.
1:41:25 > 1:41:29I once lost 20,000 on Monday, made 30,000 on Tuesday.
1:41:29 > 1:41:33In absolute privacy. The news travels much faster these days.
1:41:33 > 1:41:36That big spotlight on your wife lights you up too.
1:41:42 > 1:41:45Any action in the back room?
1:41:45 > 1:41:47Now? Yeah, there's a game but...
1:41:47 > 1:41:50Nick.
1:41:50 > 1:41:54Just by way of limbering up. And I have an hour to kill.
1:41:54 > 1:41:56I hear they haven't been running too well.
1:41:56 > 1:41:57It'll change.
1:42:01 > 1:42:03He's not in his seat!
1:42:03 > 1:42:06I looked during the number. He's not in his seat!
1:42:06 > 1:42:10Maybe he ran into an old friend. Or his watch stopped.
1:42:10 > 1:42:12You're getting excited over nothing.
1:42:12 > 1:42:14Nothing?! People get run over!
1:42:14 > 1:42:16They have accidents, don't they?
1:42:16 > 1:42:18Emma, call the hospitals, every one.
1:42:18 > 1:42:21He could be lying in the street.
1:42:21 > 1:42:23Do you see my eye-liner?
1:42:23 > 1:42:25Hurry up and get dressed, will you?
1:42:28 > 1:42:30I'll call 300.
1:42:37 > 1:42:39500. Better.
1:43:07 > 1:43:09No, not for me.
1:43:18 > 1:43:22Have a bite, gentlemen. Food and liquor, right over there.
1:43:30 > 1:43:31Nick, it's after nine o'clock.
1:43:31 > 1:43:34Why don't you get out of here?
1:43:34 > 1:43:36No, Tom, thank you. I'll watch it.
1:43:36 > 1:43:39Telephone for you, Mr Arnstein.
1:43:39 > 1:43:42It's your wife's maid at the theatre.
1:43:42 > 1:43:46Look, tell her... tell her I've been detained.
1:43:46 > 1:43:50I'll be there for the second act. Thank you.

1:45:09 > 1:45:12# What a lovely creature is a swan
1:45:12 > 1:45:14# I'm all-over fluffy, white
1:45:14 > 1:45:16# I wouldn't peck at you or bite
1:45:16 > 1:45:18# And have teeny, twinkle toes to dance upon
1:45:23 > 1:45:24Oh, was that good!
1:45:27 > 1:45:28Prince?
1:45:30 > 1:45:33Was that necessary?
1:45:33 > 1:45:35You couldn't walk over here like a person?
1:45:35 > 1:45:38Where was I? Oh, I was here.
1:45:38 > 1:45:42# So, you just...
1:45:42 > 1:45:45# Gotta have a swan or you're out of luck

1:48:32 > 1:48:36"New York audiences continue their love affair with Fanny."
1:48:36 > 1:48:39Darling, I'm so happy for you.
1:48:44 > 1:48:46How was the party?
1:48:49 > 1:48:51Hmph! How was the party?
1:48:52 > 1:48:54There was no party.
1:48:54 > 1:48:58The guests didn't think the hostess was in the mood for a party.
1:48:59 > 1:49:02Not without the host.
1:49:02 > 1:49:04Look, let's not fight about this.
1:49:04 > 1:49:06Why not?
1:49:06 > 1:49:10Isn't your spoiling my opening night worth fighting about?
1:49:10 > 1:49:13How do you think I felt out there, trying to be funny?
1:49:14 > 1:49:17I'm trying to make them laugh,
1:49:17 > 1:49:20my own husband not caring enough to be there.
1:49:20 > 1:49:24- You didn't let me affect your performance?- Damn right I didn't!
1:49:24 > 1:49:26But how do you think I felt?
1:49:26 > 1:49:28What could I say to people?
1:49:28 > 1:49:33That your lousy poker game was more important than my opening?
1:49:33 > 1:49:35To hell with your opening!
1:49:35 > 1:49:38Why shouldn't a poker game be as important to me as your opening?
1:49:38 > 1:49:42It's my work, and I haven't had a smash hit for a long time.
1:49:43 > 1:49:47I was winning. I couldn't've left that game!
1:49:47 > 1:49:49I thought maybe, finally, at last...
1:49:49 > 1:49:51my luck had changed.
1:49:55 > 1:49:56Only it hadn't.
1:50:02 > 1:50:05SNIFFS So it'll change tomorrow.
1:50:05 > 1:50:07The way it has a hundred other times.
1:50:11 > 1:50:15Everyone has a run of bad luck now and then. Doesn't mean a thing.
1:50:17 > 1:50:20How would you know, darling? You never lose.
1:50:37 > 1:50:39LAUGHS >
1:50:43 > 1:50:47Oh, that was my crazy husband on the phone.
1:50:47 > 1:50:52Some guy had a deal for me and gave Nick 1,000 to put in a word.
1:50:52 > 1:50:55He passed it on to a waiter he never saw before!
1:50:57 > 1:51:00And he just put in a word.
1:51:02 > 1:51:04CLEARS THROAT
1:51:08 > 1:51:11You want to play? Get a deck.
1:51:13 > 1:51:16Fanny, I never butted in your life, did I?
1:51:18 > 1:51:22Sure. When I was a kid you made me wear long underwear.
1:51:22 > 1:51:26When you want to talk serious to your kids, I hope they make jokes.
1:51:26 > 1:51:30I'm sorry! I thought you were starting on Nick.
1:51:30 > 1:51:32Why would I criticise Nick?
1:51:32 > 1:51:34It's you I'm surprised at.
1:51:37 > 1:51:42- Why?- When you look at him, you only see what you want to see.
1:51:44 > 1:51:47I see him as he is! I love him as he is!
1:51:47 > 1:51:49Fanny, love him a little less.
1:51:49 > 1:51:51Help him a little more.
1:51:53 > 1:51:56Momma, he doesn't need any help. He's not a child.
1:51:56 > 1:52:00The man owes money everywhere. He doesn't know which way to turn.
1:52:03 > 1:52:05What?
1:52:05 > 1:52:07How do you know that?
1:52:07 > 1:52:10Everybody knows. Only you don't.
1:52:10 > 1:52:14Fanny, are you so wrapped up in the show you can't see anything else?
1:52:15 > 1:52:17Why wouldn't he tell me?
1:52:17 > 1:52:20He can have anything I've got.
1:52:20 > 1:52:22That's not what he needs.
1:52:22 > 1:52:24Darling, you're his wife.
1:52:24 > 1:52:26Sit down with him, talk to him.
1:52:26 > 1:52:29Think together what he should do.
1:52:44 > 1:52:46Some of that for me, Nick?
1:52:46 > 1:52:50It won't make a dent in what I owe you, but if you can't wait...
1:52:50 > 1:52:52I could wait, I could even forget.
1:52:54 > 1:52:56In return for what?
1:52:58 > 1:53:02I need a front man someone like you who could talk.
1:53:02 > 1:53:05For a bond deal I'm putting together
1:53:05 > 1:53:07You could make yourself a mint.
1:53:07 > 1:53:09Thanks, but uh... I don't think so.
1:53:09 > 1:53:15OK. I guess with Fanny Brice for a meal ticket you don't get so hungry.
1:53:15 > 1:53:17Nicky! Hey...
1:53:19 > 1:53:20I'm sorry, Peterson.
1:53:22 > 1:53:25Meal ticket? That's MY joke.
1:53:26 > 1:53:28Sure.
1:53:37 > 1:53:38Boo!
1:53:40 > 1:53:42Is Mr Branca here yet?
1:53:42 > 1:53:44Not yet, Mr Arnstein.
1:53:44 > 1:53:47I'm expecting him. This yelled through the window of FAO Schwarz.
1:53:47 > 1:53:52"Take me home to Frances!" Will you give it to her, please?
1:53:52 > 1:53:54- Yes, Mr Arnstein.- Thank you.
1:53:55 > 1:53:57Oh, Hilda...
1:53:57 > 1:54:00You and the cook have been very patient.
1:54:00 > 1:54:03It's time I paid your salaries two months, I believe.
1:54:03 > 1:54:08Miss Brice paid us, sir. All that was owed and three months in advance.
1:54:08 > 1:54:11I mean, Mrs Arnstein paid us.
1:54:11 > 1:54:13Miss Brice paid you.
1:54:15 > 1:54:17BUZZER
1:54:17 > 1:54:19I'll get it. Thank you.
1:54:20 > 1:54:22- There you are!- Am I late?
1:54:22 > 1:54:23No, I just beat you in.
1:54:23 > 1:54:26I'll mix us a drink and you can tell me your plans.
1:54:26 > 1:54:28All right.
1:54:28 > 1:54:31Hey! Nice place, Nick.
1:54:31 > 1:54:35It's comfortable and very convenient Water or soda, Tom?
1:54:35 > 1:54:37Straight. I haven't got much time.
1:54:37 > 1:54:39The place gets crowded earlier and earlier.
1:54:39 > 1:54:43Doing that well is good trouble.
1:54:43 > 1:54:45That's what I want to talk about.
1:54:45 > 1:54:48- Nick, I didn't know you were home! - Hello, darling.
1:54:48 > 1:54:51Mr Branca, I haven't seen you for ages.
1:54:51 > 1:54:53I've been dying to see your show.
1:54:53 > 1:54:57But I've been so busy. I dropped by to make Nick a proposition.
1:54:57 > 1:55:00Unless it's a new way of marking cards, Nick, don't listen!
1:55:02 > 1:55:05I'll leave you to it. Though I'm dying of curiosity.
1:55:05 > 1:55:10Come back, silly! Come and sit down. All right with you, Tom?
1:55:10 > 1:55:12Of course! All in the family.
1:55:12 > 1:55:15- Then start propositioning. - All right.
1:55:18 > 1:55:21Well, as I told you, the place...
1:55:21 > 1:55:24No, thanks. The place is doing awfully well.
1:55:24 > 1:55:28So well, that a couple of money men approached me about opening another.
1:55:28 > 1:55:31You know, it's getting fashionable.
1:55:31 > 1:55:36I'd like to, Nick, but I can't run two places single-handed.
1:55:36 > 1:55:40And those people don't know anything about this business.
1:55:40 > 1:55:45So I told them about you, and we want you to be a partner.
1:55:45 > 1:55:48With an extra cut for running the place. How does it strike you?
1:55:48 > 1:55:50Pleasantly.
1:55:50 > 1:55:52I'm flattered, naturally.
1:55:52 > 1:55:57It's no secret there's no place I'd rather be than a gambling club.
1:55:57 > 1:56:00Except the theatre on opening night.
1:56:02 > 1:56:05Anyway, it does sound like something you'd be awfully good at.
1:56:05 > 1:56:08I've always had a yen to run a club. And lots of ideas for it.
1:56:08 > 1:56:10Great! Then it's a deal.
1:56:10 > 1:56:11Wait! Wait a minute!
1:56:13 > 1:56:15It would have to depend on...
1:56:15 > 1:56:20how much I'd have to put up for the partnership. I...
1:56:20 > 1:56:22Nick, we don't need your money. We need you.
1:56:22 > 1:56:25Well, how much are the rest of you putting in?
1:56:26 > 1:56:2850,000.
1:56:28 > 1:56:31And for me it's free?
1:56:31 > 1:56:35Tom, I can't let you put up my share!
1:56:35 > 1:56:38I'm not! I swear I'm not.
1:56:38 > 1:56:44Look, our thinking is that with your know-how and your...class...
1:56:44 > 1:56:46you'll attract all the right people.
1:56:46 > 1:56:49We'll make our money back in no time!
1:56:53 > 1:56:55Full partnership for nothing?
1:56:55 > 1:56:58Oh, except my "class".
1:56:58 > 1:57:00Plus a cut for running the place?
1:57:02 > 1:57:04That's a very generous offer.
1:57:06 > 1:57:07Too generous.
1:57:11 > 1:57:12Fanny.
1:57:15 > 1:57:17How much were you going to put in?
1:57:26 > 1:57:2850,000.
1:57:42 > 1:57:45Tom, I'm sorry your time's been wasted.
1:57:46 > 1:57:48Nick, it is a good idea.
1:57:48 > 1:57:49Was a good idea.
1:57:49 > 1:57:52Don't blame Tom. I talked him into it.
1:57:54 > 1:57:55Thanks for everything.
1:58:19 > 1:58:21Nick...
1:58:24 > 1:58:26I was just trying to help.
1:58:26 > 1:58:28I don't WANT that kind of help!
1:58:28 > 1:58:32Going behind my back, sinking money into me to make me look good.
1:58:34 > 1:58:36Fanny, I...
1:58:38 > 1:58:40I just wish you hadn't done it.
1:58:42 > 1:58:44You'd better go.
1:58:44 > 1:58:46You'll be late for the theatre.
1:58:47 > 1:58:49I...
1:58:49 > 1:58:50I...can't go.
1:58:50 > 1:58:51Not like this.
1:58:53 > 1:58:55Darling, listen, please.
1:58:55 > 1:58:58Once I saw how...unhappy you are
1:58:58 > 1:59:01I knew I had to do something.
1:59:01 > 1:59:04I guess I did it wrong. You know how dumb I can be.
1:59:04 > 1:59:08Fanny, you don't have to tell me you did it out of love. I know that.
2:00:17 > 2:00:19Murray Hill 4119.
2:00:23 > 2:00:24Peterson?
2:00:26 > 2:00:29Arnstein.
2:00:29 > 2:00:31APPLAUSE
2:00:56 > 2:00:58Something wrong?
2:01:00 > 2:01:02It's Nick.
2:01:03 > 2:01:07- He's hurt?- No, no. He's in trouble.
2:01:07 > 2:01:10He's gotten himself mixed up in a phoney bond deal.
2:01:14 > 2:01:17So... Well, what do I do?
2:01:17 > 2:01:20- I call a lawyer? - No, he's got a lawyer.
2:01:20 > 2:01:26Branca got him Fallon, the best criminal attorney in New York City.
2:01:27 > 2:01:28Criminal?
2:01:30 > 2:01:33Fanny, embezzlement is a criminal charge.
2:01:33 > 2:01:37Fallon advised him to give himself up, and he did, a few hours ago.
2:01:40 > 2:01:42He gave himself up?
2:01:47 > 2:01:49You mean he's in jail?
2:01:49 > 2:01:50Uh-huh.
2:01:50 > 2:01:52Nick...
2:01:54 > 2:01:56I've got to see him.
2:01:56 > 2:01:58You can't, honey. They won't let you.
2:01:58 > 2:02:00I've just got to.
2:02:00 > 2:02:02Miss Fanny, can I do something?
2:02:02 > 2:02:04Fanny... Fanny, look...
2:02:04 > 2:02:07He doesn't want to see you.
2:02:07 > 2:02:11It's understandable, dear the man's humiliated, ashamed.
2:02:11 > 2:02:14Of what?! This is Nick Arnstein, not some hood.
2:02:14 > 2:02:18If these bonds were phoney you don't think he knew it, do you?
2:02:19 > 2:02:23Fallon's taking that line that he was an innocent dupe.
2:02:23 > 2:02:27- Fallon's going to call you at home. - I'd better go, then.
2:02:27 > 2:02:30There are reporters at the stage door.
2:02:30 > 2:02:32Come up to my office and out the front.
2:02:33 > 2:02:36Why? There's nothing to hide.
2:02:36 > 2:02:38Do you want me to go with you, Fan?
2:02:38 > 2:02:40No.
2:02:45 > 2:02:46EXCITED VOICES
2:02:51 > 2:02:53BARRAGE OF QUESTIONS
2:02:53 > 2:02:57Will you answer a few questions, Miss Brice?
2:02:57 > 2:02:59SQUEAKY VOICE: Sure, but I don't talk very good yet!
2:02:59 > 2:03:02Did you know Nick was giving himself up?
2:03:02 > 2:03:05Anything to avoid coming home for dinner!
2:03:05 > 2:03:09Peterson says Nick was the mastermind.
2:03:09 > 2:03:12Nick couldn't mastermind a light bulb out of a socket.
2:03:12 > 2:03:14Fanny, what about these stocks?
2:03:14 > 2:03:17I only know about summer stock.
2:03:17 > 2:03:22- What's your husband's story?- There is no story my dope was a dupe!
2:03:22 > 2:03:24Or...my dupe was an innocent dope.
2:03:24 > 2:03:27- Did he try to sell you any bonds? - That much of a dope he ain't!
2:03:27 > 2:03:31- You realise he may go to prison? - I'll know where he is nights!
2:03:31 > 2:03:33Do you still love him, Miss Brice?
2:03:34 > 2:03:37The name is Arnstein. Mrs Arnstein.
2:03:38 > 2:03:40Mrs Arnstein, do you still love him?
2:04:10 > 2:04:11Next case.
2:04:11 > 2:04:13The People versus Arnstein.
2:04:13 > 2:04:20The defendant is charged with embezzlement, according to Statute 119 of the Penal Code.
2:04:20 > 2:04:22How does the defendant plead?
2:04:22 > 2:04:24I move for a postponement.
2:04:24 > 2:04:26Why, Mr Fallon?
2:04:26 > 2:04:29My client has been in custody only 24 hours.
2:04:29 > 2:04:32I've been unable to acquaint him fully with the charges.
2:04:32 > 2:04:35I submit he is unable to enter a plea
2:04:35 > 2:04:37Nick, please!
2:04:37 > 2:04:42There is no need for a postponement. I understand the charge.
2:04:42 > 2:04:43I knew exactly what I was doing.
2:04:43 > 2:04:45Nick!
2:04:45 > 2:04:47So I wish to plead guilty.
2:04:59 > 2:05:03I'll see the Deputy District Attorney and Mr Fallon in my chambers.
2:05:14 > 2:05:18I'm sorry. You have only a few minutes.
2:05:25 > 2:05:28Nick.
2:05:28 > 2:05:30(Oh, Nick!)
2:05:31 > 2:05:33What happened in there?
2:05:35 > 2:05:37The minimum sentence two years.
2:05:37 > 2:05:40With luck I'll be out in 18 months.
2:05:44 > 2:05:45With luck?
2:05:46 > 2:05:48Why, Nick?
2:05:48 > 2:05:50You had a chance.
2:05:51 > 2:05:54All you had to do was say that Peterson tricked you.
2:05:55 > 2:05:58- I couldn't say that.- Why not?
2:05:58 > 2:05:59Because he didn't.
2:06:01 > 2:06:02I want you to divorce me.
2:06:06 > 2:06:08W-what are you saying?
2:06:11 > 2:06:15We're just no good for each other. Everybody knows that.
2:06:17 > 2:06:20Look, my darling, I may not be good for you,
2:06:20 > 2:06:25but nobody has the right to say what's good for me. Not even you.
2:06:27 > 2:06:32You think I don't know all that went wrong was my fault? I know that!
2:06:32 > 2:06:34It's no use, Fanny!
2:06:36 > 2:06:39I've tried to tell myself I'll catch up with you.
2:06:39 > 2:06:42But there's no way I can catch up with you.
2:06:44 > 2:06:47I don't want to run any more. Not in a race I can't win.
2:06:49 > 2:06:53- Let me go, Fanny. Let me be myself again.- I can't!
2:06:53 > 2:06:56I can't let you go off to prison and say that's that.
2:06:56 > 2:06:58Why not? It's good publicity.
2:07:06 > 2:07:08KNOCK ON DOOR
2:07:08 > 2:07:09I'll be with you in a minute.
2:07:13 > 2:07:17I'm sorry, darling. That's what I've turned into.
2:07:19 > 2:07:22Nick, you think you mean this.
2:07:22 > 2:07:24And maybe you do.
2:07:24 > 2:07:28But maybe it's just because of all that's happened.
2:07:28 > 2:07:30So, uh...
2:07:30 > 2:07:32why don't we just leave it for now?
2:07:32 > 2:07:36And if you still feel the same way when you come home,
2:07:36 > 2:07:39I won't fight you. OK?
2:07:44 > 2:07:45OK.
2:07:46 > 2:07:49OK.
2:08:00 > 2:08:03You take care of yourself.
2:08:03 > 2:08:06Go out, see people, do things. Enjoy yourself.
2:08:06 > 2:08:09I don't worry about you.
2:08:09 > 2:08:13The moment you're on that stage nothing bothers you.
2:08:13 > 2:08:15Nothing.
2:08:17 > 2:08:22You're the strongest woman in the whole world, did you know that?
2:08:24 > 2:08:27Yeah, sure. Everybody knows that.
2:08:49 > 2:08:51So long, funny girl.
2:09:13 > 2:09:17# Funny
2:09:17 > 2:09:19Did you hear that?
2:09:21 > 2:09:24# Funny
2:09:26 > 2:09:29# Yeah, the guy said "Honey...
2:09:32 > 2:09:38# You're a funny girl
2:09:38 > 2:09:43# That's me, I just keep them
2:09:44 > 2:09:47# In stitches
2:09:48 > 2:09:52# Doubled in half
2:09:53 > 2:09:59# And though I may be all wrong for the guy
2:10:00 > 2:10:03# I'm good for a laugh
2:10:03 > 2:10:08# I guess it's not funny
2:10:09 > 2:10:15# Life is far from sunny
2:10:15 > 2:10:20# When the laugh is over
2:10:20 > 2:10:28# And the joke's on you
2:10:28 > 2:10:34# A girl ought to have a sense of humour
2:10:34 > 2:10:41# That's one thing you really need for sure
2:10:41 > 2:10:49# When you're a funny girl
2:10:49 > 2:10:57# A fella said a funny girl
2:10:59 > 2:11:01# Funny...
2:11:01 > 2:11:09# How it ain't so funny
2:11:09 > 2:11:16# Funny girl. #
2:11:16 > 2:11:19< DOOR OPENS
2:11:38 > 2:11:41It cleaned up fine.
2:11:42 > 2:11:45Have you been sitting in that theatre all this time?
2:11:45 > 2:11:48- Uh-huh.- Are you all right?
2:11:48 > 2:11:52Then would you see Mr Ziegfeld? He's outside.
2:11:52 > 2:11:53Yeah. Flo, come on in.
2:11:54 > 2:11:56I'll get your props for you.
2:11:56 > 2:11:59- Any word from Nick?- No, not yet.
2:12:02 > 2:12:06- I've been worried about you, Fanny. - I'm sorry you've been worried.
2:12:06 > 2:12:08- Flo?- What?
2:12:09 > 2:12:12I don't even know if Nick wants us to go on, but...
2:12:14 > 2:12:20..if he does...I don't want to make the same mistakes.
2:12:20 > 2:12:22If it means giving up the theatre,
2:12:22 > 2:12:24I hope you'll be a sport about it.
2:12:24 > 2:12:26Well, I won't be.
2:12:26 > 2:12:31But I won't worry about it till it happens.
2:12:31 > 2:12:33- Fifteen minutes, Miss Brice. - Thank you.
2:12:33 > 2:12:35I'll let you get dressed.
2:12:39 > 2:12:41Be happy, dear.
2:13:17 > 2:13:19Hello, Fanny.
2:13:28 > 2:13:32You must be that fella I met at Keeney's one night.
2:13:34 > 2:13:37You must be that girl from Henry St.
2:13:44 > 2:13:46I feel like a kid on a blind date.
2:14:29 > 2:14:31Did you...see the baby, darling?
2:14:31 > 2:14:33No.
2:14:33 > 2:14:34I came straight here.
2:14:36 > 2:14:37Well, she's gorgeous.
2:14:39 > 2:14:41Getting to look just like you.
2:14:45 > 2:14:47Who says I'm not lucky?
2:14:55 > 2:14:58Fanny, I...
2:15:00 > 2:15:04I've had 18 months to think about us.
2:15:04 > 2:15:06You want to hear something funny?
2:15:06 > 2:15:10I've had the same 18 months, and I never thought about us.
2:15:12 > 2:15:15Oh, I mean I...
2:15:15 > 2:15:18I simmered, I stewed... I cried my eyes out.
2:15:20 > 2:15:23But I never really...thought.
2:15:26 > 2:15:28Not until today.
2:15:39 > 2:15:41And I saw that you were right.
2:15:48 > 2:15:50You did a lot for me, Nick.
2:15:51 > 2:15:54And that's what I'm going to remember.
2:15:56 > 2:15:58What did I ever do for you, darling?
2:15:58 > 2:16:02What did I ever give you that you couldn't have gotten yourself?
2:16:05 > 2:16:08A blue marble egg.
2:16:10 > 2:16:13No-one would have given me that but you.
2:16:15 > 2:16:16And you...
2:16:17 > 2:16:19You made me feel sort of...
2:16:21 > 2:16:24..beautiful, you know. For a very long time.
2:16:36 > 2:16:38You are beautiful.
2:16:50 > 2:16:51KNOCK
2:16:51 > 2:16:53Five minutes.
2:16:55 > 2:16:57There are a lot of people waiting.
2:17:10 > 2:17:13Goodbye, Fanny.
2:17:24 > 2:17:26Bye, Nick.

2:18:43 > 2:18:45# When I know I'll come back
