1:24:02
Yes, the likes of which I've never seen.
1:24:05
Our New York method director,
that's the best thing he's ever seen?
1:24:11
Yes, Mr Paramutual.
The likes of which I've never seen.
1:24:15
And just who are you?
1:24:17
One of those "I've been making pictures
for 30 years" kind of guys?
1:24:22
That's not enough of a criterion. You
could have been making them wrong.
1:24:26
Let me tell you something.
It might be wise for you to remember it.
1:24:30
Anyone in the world would give anything
to do a performance
1:24:35
because performing is nothing more
than a form of expression.
1:24:40
But not everyone is capable of
expressing themselves openly and freely.
1:24:45
And therefore only a very few
are chosen,
1:24:49
chosen to communicate and express
for the millions
1:24:52
that either can't, don't know how or
would never get the opportunity to do so.
1:24:59
Those few that are chosen
are called actors, but they're still people.
1:25:03
I might add,
a very special kind of people.
1:25:06
Yes, Mr Paramutual,
that was a performance.
1:25:10
Given by one who can express
what he feels,
1:25:12
whether it be dramatic or comic,
1:25:15
because he communicates.
1:25:17
He communicates.
1:25:19
And that's the vitally important substance
that makes great stars.
1:25:24
With this kid, Mr Paramutual,
1:25:26
you've not only got a potential
great star and comedy find,
1:25:31
you've got a gold mine.
1:25:34
All of this is preposterous.
1:25:36
It is? Thank your lucky stars
he's working for you.
1:25:39
- Right in the palm of your hand...
- You have star material.
1:25:45
Someone who can make people laugh.
1:25:47
That's a quality that's difficult to define,
but it's there on that screen.
1:25:52
This kid will make you a fortune.
1:25:55
More money than
even you'll know what to do with, sir.
1:25:59
Performance! Star material! Gold mine!
