1:07:00
Saturday night
after the performance.

1:07:02
Can you come?
1:07:04
May I let you know?
1:07:06
I don't get it.
1:07:08
Are you in mourning
or are you just a hermit.

1:07:11
Mr. Kellerman,
1:07:12
I'm trying to persuade
your daughter to come to a party

1:07:15
and seems I can't...
Of course, she'll go.

1:07:17
It'll do you good, darling.
1:07:18
You'd been seeing
too little of New York

1:07:19
and too much of my musicians.
1:07:21
And besides, orders are orders.
1:07:24
Mr. Harper is my new boss.
1:07:26
Boss?
I'd been asked to work

1:07:28
in the Hippodrome Orchestra
for the next season.

1:07:30
Dad. Let's hope
it's only the beginning, sir.

1:07:33
The Hippodrome needs
your kind of talent.

1:07:34
Thank you. Thank you very much.
1:07:36
Got to make the Kellermans happy.
1:07:37
The man at my box office
told me so.

1:07:39
I'll see you later.
1:07:41
Bye, Alfred.
1:07:43
Dad, I think it's just
so exciting and wonderful.

1:07:46
The two of us
here working together.

1:07:49
I couldn't be happier.
1:07:53
Couldn't you?
I've got the report.

1:07:56
He went to Florida
with that flying act

1:08:00
and William sliced up
the second day.

1:08:04
And where is he now?
1:08:05
Well, this report said
he was in New Orleans

1:08:07
for a while
with a wrestling bear,

1:08:08
then up in Chicago with some kind
of concession that closed.

1:08:15
Dad, I've just got to find him.
1:08:18
That argument with him
was so stupid and silly.

1:08:22
This whole thing, the Hippodrome,
it was Jimmy's idea.

1:08:25
Darling, you mustn't
confuse love and loyalty.

1:08:29
You owe nothing to anybody
in the world.

1:08:31
Not to me or anybody.
1:08:33
Jimmy knows that, too.
1:08:35
Does he?
Deep in his heart he does.

1:08:38
I'm sure that's the reason
for his absence.

1:08:40
He wants to make good
without Annette Kellerman,

1:08:43
if you should don't need him.
1:08:46
Dad, I do need him. I'm...
1:08:48
I know but that's
the way Sullivan is.

1:08:52
And he's no different
from most of us.

1:08:54
Darling, that's the price
a woman pays for achievement.

1:08:58
It'll come to you something
you've offered but not before.
