All About Eve

play.
mark.
next.

:28:00
just something to do
till the aisles get cleared.

:28:05
What, again?
:28:10
I could watch you play that last scene
a thousand times, cry every time.

:28:15
Performance number 1,000 of this one,
if I play it that long,

:28:18
will take place in a well-padded booby hatch.
:28:24
I must say, you can certainly tell
Mr Sampson's been gone a month.

:28:28
You certainly can.
:28:30
Especially if you're me
between now and tomorrow morning.

:28:34
You bought the new girdles a size smaller.
I can feel it.

:28:37
Something maybe grew a size larger.
:28:40
You can get into one of those girdles
and act for two and a half hours.

:28:43
I couldn't get into the girdle
in two and a half hours.

:28:52
You haven't noticed my latest bit
of interior decorating.

:28:56
But you've done so much. What's new?
:28:59
The curtains. I made them myself.
:29:04
They're lovely. Aren't they lovely, Birdie?
:29:07
Adorable.
:29:08
We now got everything a dressing room
needs except a basketball hoop.

:29:12
Just because you can't even work a zipper!
:29:14
It was very thoughtful of you, Eve.
I appreciate it.

:29:18
I'll just take this to the wardrobe mistress.
:29:20
- Don't bother. Mrs Brown will be along soon.
- No trouble at all.

:29:30
May I be so bold as to say something?
:29:33
- Have you ever heard of the word "union"?
- Behind in your dues? How much?

:29:37
- I haven't got a union. I'm slave labour.
- Well?

:29:40
But the wardrobe women have got one
and, next to a tenor,

:29:43
a wardrobe woman is the
touchiest thing in show business.

:29:48
She's got two things to do:
carry clothes and press 'em wrong.

:29:51
And don't let anybody try to muscle in.
