:19:01
- That's who I am.
- I'm Marcia.
:19:04
Hello, Marcia.
:19:07
Let's hear some of your plans.
:19:11
Where's Altar?
:19:12
The genius? He's working.
Would you like a drink?
:19:16
No, thanks. It's a little too early.
:19:18
- Do you mind if I have one?
- No, please.
:19:20
What's he working on?
:19:21
The Fall of a Stone. Do you like that title?
:19:31
Are you married or something?
:19:35
Yes, I'm married or something.
:19:39
Choke.
:19:43
You're missing a lot, architect.
:19:45
Maybe we both are.
:19:48
Maybe you'd better tell Altar I'm here.
:19:50
What, and have him snap off my head?
Do you think I'm crazy...
:19:53
- I thought I heard you. You been here long?
- I just got here.
:19:55
You still here? I thought you left long ago.
:19:57
- Now, how can I leave? I'm your inspiration.
- Sure. Baby, I hate to disillusion you.
:20:02
- You need all the inspiration you can get.
- Go fly a kite, will you, sweetheart?
:20:06
- Had your breakfast yet?
- And lunch.
:20:08
- And lunch? What time is it?
- After 3:00.
:20:10
No wonder I'm so hungry.
I've been at this thing since 4:00.
:20:13
- I can't get it right.
- And you won't.
:20:15
Look, Marcia whatever-your-name-is...
:20:17
would it hurt your career
if you kind of cleaned up the joint?
:20:20
My talent doesn't lie in that direction.
:20:23
You haven't got any talent.
You don't have any talent.
:20:26
I don't? You see, he gets lucky
with a couple of books...
:20:29
all of a sudden,
he's an important American writer.
:20:32
I am an important American writer.
:20:34
The critics said that he wrote with
facile ease, but he hasn't got a thing to say.
:20:38
The critics. I eat them
like the pieces of cheese they are.
:20:41
He's dying because they pan his books.
It kills him.
:20:45
Yeah, I cry all the way to the bank, okay?
:20:48
All right, now go someplace
and practice your fast draw.
:20:51
- We're all out of Holland gin.
- And I can understand it.
:20:55
Got to get rid of that miserable lush.
:20:59
I'd like to go over those sketches with you.
