1:48:02
Tell me, my dear,
1:48:04
are you still going to marry him?
1:48:09
I'll do anything in the world
to make him happy.
1:48:12
He's a very lucky man.
1:48:14
He's a very, very lucky man.
1:48:19
I never thought we'd come to this.
1:48:22
Here we have the star dressing room
without a dresser.
1:48:26
Oh well, I guess we can put up
with it for one night.
1:48:29
Fred, the stage manager.
1:48:30
Come in, Fred.
1:48:33
Like old times,
seeing you in this room again.
1:48:36
What's on your mind?
1:48:38
You've got 10 minutes, because
there's 20 other acts to follow.
1:48:42
You're in a song first,
finishing up with a musical act.
1:48:46
I'll ring down
after you fall in the drum.
1:48:48
No, after I'm carried off
in the drum.
1:48:50
Right you are. Thank you, sir.
1:48:54
If anybody else says it's like old
times, I'll jump out the window!
1:48:58
First the doorman,
then the call boy,
1:49:02
now the stage manager.
1:49:04
It's me, Postant.
1:49:06
It's like old times seeing you here
again putting on your war paint.
1:49:11
I'll be down
watching the other acts.
1:49:14
Yes, like old times.
Only in those days you were drunk.
1:49:19
I'm supposed to be funnier
when I'm drunk.
1:49:21
Maybe, but you were killing yourself.
1:49:23
You know, anything for a laugh.
How's the house?
1:49:26
Packed. Every face card in Europe
is out there:
1:49:29
Kings, queens, jacks...
1:49:31
- Is Neville out there?
- Yes. Came up specially.
1:49:34
And what a program!
1:49:36
Take a look at that. Every star
in the business is appearing.
1:49:40
It'll be something,
following all this talent.
1:49:43
Don't worry. Tonight you'll
make them look like amateurs.
1:49:47
That's all any of us are. Amateurs.
1:49:49
We don't live long enough
to be anything else.
1:49:53
Well, as one old amateur
to another...
1:49:57
- Good luck.
- Thank you, Mr. Postant.
