:15:00
- Who are you?
- Oh, I'm not important.
:15:03
I'm writing the film and I'll direct it.
My name is Harry Dawes.
:15:07
Harry Dawes.
:15:10
Harry Dawes.
:15:12
Did you not once direct
Jean Harlow and Carole Lombard?
:15:15
You must have seen movies
when you were very little.
:15:18
How did you know my name?
Only one out of 10,000 moviegoers...
:15:21
Oh, I can name to you Lubitsch
and Fleming and Van Dyke and La Cava.
:15:27
- You didn't think I was dead too, did you?
- Maria!
:15:30
:15:32
:15:41
My cousin, he plays in the orchestra.
:15:43
- He had to go back to work.
- Through the window?
:15:46
That's a funny way for a cousin to leave.
:15:51
In Hollywood, it is not easy
to become a star.
:15:54
Ah, where is it easy?
:15:58
In Madrid, here at least I'm a little star.
:16:00
Why should I take
the chance that I lose it?
:16:04
- Do you know what a screen test is?
- Yes.
:16:08
We could make it in Rome.
Nobody would know.
:16:10
If it doesn't work out,
you'll have lost nothing.
:16:13
It can't hurt you to meet Kirk Edwards.
Nobody could accuse you of mingling.
:16:19
A business conference
with one of the richest men in the world.
:16:23
Could you teach me to act, Mr Dawes?
:16:26
If you can act, I can help you.
:16:28
If you can't, nobody can teach you.
:16:32
Why did not Mr Kirk Edwards
come to ask me himself?
:16:35
I'm sure he would have been delighted.
But since I'm the director...
:16:39
Do all directors come to ask young
women to sit with their producers?
:16:43
Um... Not... not all.
:16:45
I think a man who can write something,
and can help someone to act,
:16:49
is worth much more than
a man who only has money.
:16:52
If and when you become an actress,
don't ever say that in public.
:16:55
You never know who's listening.
:16:57
Hm?
