Mr Temple don't believe in press agents.
Does that answer ya something?
:49:06
Take your hands off me, lump.
:49:08
Look, nobody believes
in a press agent, Temple,
:49:11
if he makes claims he can't produce.
:49:14
I'm not here to sell anything
and I'm not gonna peddle anything.
:49:18
But when I tell a client I can
get him space in Hunsecker's column,
:49:23
it's not talk.
:49:26
Excuse me.
:49:28
- Listen, you bull artist, if you think...
- Let him alone, Al.
:49:34
:49:35
- Hello, Sidney...
- Hello, Mary. Could I talk to JJ?
:49:39
Now, look. Nobody hired you.
We didn't talk any deal.
:49:43
Relax, lump. I told you,
I wasn't peddling any fish today.
:49:47
JJ, hi. Sidney Falco.
How are you, sweetheart?
:49:51
Fine. Just fine, thanks.
:49:53
Look, I know it's late, but is it too late
to add something to your column?
:50:00
No, no. No relative, but very important.
:50:03
If you got some paper and a pencil,
I can suggest a word or two. Good.
:50:08
"If there's a more hilarious man around
than, uh... Herbie Temple at the Palace,
:50:15
you'll, uh... pardon us for not catching
his name. We were too busy laughing."
:50:20
No, make that "We were
too busy screaming."
:50:22
Right. Thanks, JJ.
Probably see ya at 21 later.
:50:27
No, supper. Right.
Goodbye and thanks again.
:50:33
Speak to the man, Al.
:50:35
Wait a minute. Hold it, will ya?
:50:37
Al, speak to Mr Falco.
:50:39
- See me in my office.
- Al makes all the deals, doc.
:50:42
I don't like a fella so quick with his hands.
:50:44
Temple, you've been three
passes behind for the last 20 years.
:50:48
This could start you off real big.
TV, movies... anywhere.
:50:51
- Probably cost us a pretty penny, too?
- You tell him. I st-st-stutter.
:50:55
Look, why don't we wait until tomorrow?
:50:59
Wait as long as you like.
