:47:01
Go on, have me arrested.
:47:04
I still own 150,000 shares of Capitol Films.
:47:08
Next month at the annual meeting...
:47:09
... we'll let the stockholders decide
who is the maniac.

:47:13
You think, when the stockholders hear you
cost the company $30 million plus prints...

:47:17
Me, personally?
:47:18
It's your film. A Felix Farmer production.
:47:21
And who okayed the script and budget?
:47:24
Who's responsible
for going $12 million over budget?

:47:26
I went up to your office,
put a gun to your head, and said:

:47:29
"Give me $12 million
or I'll blow your brains out?"

:47:32
You think I wanted to spend
the extra $12 million?

:47:34
In a way, you did do that.
It's your fault we fell behind schedule.

:47:37
Then why didn't you fire me?
:47:39
He didn't fire you because
he's a decent human being, that's why.

:47:42
Fire me, he's got no fall guy.
:47:44
Felix, you're finished. You're through.
:47:48
Contract or no contract...
:47:49
...I am going to cut your picture
and you can go ahead and sue.

:47:54
Go ahead.
:47:56
Cutting won't help.
:47:59
If you won't let me reshoot it, sell it to me.
:48:04
What did you say?
:48:05
I'll buy Night Wind.
How much do you want?

:48:07
Don't listen to him, David. He's crazy.
:48:09
Yeah, but he's got the first nickel
he ever made.

:48:13
- Are you serious?
- Name your price.

:48:18
- What do you think?
- I don't know.

:48:20
I'm telling you, he's nuts.
He's not responsible for what he's saying.

:48:23
Then we have to make sure
we cash the check before they lock him up.

:48:28
We've got $30 million, plus prints,
advertising and interest.

:48:33
- I can raise $20 million.
- Forget it.

:48:36
You can tear up my contract.
:48:38
Three pictures, pay or play,
plus a gross percentage.

:48:43
$20 million...
:48:45
...your contact and your Capitol stock.
:48:48
No, I'll only buy if I can reshoot.
My stock will just about cover that.

:48:52
Goodnight, Felix.
And don't forget to turn off the lights.
