:48:00
What you're taIking about
is Iike a tropicaI motif, right?
:48:04
- It's funny, cos actuaIIy I Iike bamboo.
- ReaIIy?
:48:08
Picture, Iike, hanging pIants maybe,
and a reaIIy nice tiIe fIoor.
:48:12
Bamboo furniture.
It's very beautifuI and very dramatic.
:48:15
- You got an eye for drama.
- You reaIIy think so?
:48:18
You sound surprised.
:48:20
Nobody ever Iiked
my African-jungIe idea before.
:48:23
I aIways had this as a dream.
You're the first person ever Iiked it.
:48:27
I'm wiIIing to bet that you're fuII
of good ideas, but you Iack confidence.
:48:31
- You don't have any confidence.
- It's my big probIem as a decorator.
:48:35
Sure, it's Iike the acts I handIe.
I couId straighten you out in no time at aII.
:48:40
Cos I don't see you just decorating IittIe
joints and IittIe apartments in the suburbs.
:48:45
I see you doing your goId waIIs
and your Turkish piIIows...
:48:48
..and aII that garbage in hoteIs
and embassies and stuff.
:48:52
- ReaIIy?
- Yeah, naturaIIy.
:48:54
- You couId. I can smeII it.
- I don't think so.
:48:56
The boat's saiIed for me. I shouId have
been more serious when I was younger.
:49:00
Younger? You got
your whoIe Iife ahead of you.
:49:03
The troubIe is I Iook at my work
and I think it's ugIy.
:49:07
WeII, my uncIe morris,
the famous diabetic from BrookIyn,...
:49:10
..used to say ''If you hate yourseIf,
then you hate your work.''
:49:14
I sIeep at night.
It's you that's got the uIcer.
:49:17
I got an uIcer, but it may be a good thing.
You know what my phiIosophy of Iife is?
:49:21
That it's important to have some Iaughs,
but you gotta suffer a IittIe too,...
:49:25
..because otherwise
you miss the whoIe point to Iife.
:49:28
- Know what my phiIosophy of Iife is?
- I can imagine.
:49:31
It's over quick, so have a good time.
You see want you want, go for it.
:49:35
Don't pay attention to anyone eIse. Do it to
the other guy first, or he'II do it to you.
:49:39
This is a phiIosophy of Iife? It sounds Iike
the screenpIay to ''murder Incorporated''.
:49:45
HoId this. That's ridicuIous.
No wonder you don't Iike yourseIf.
:49:48
Stop saying that. I Iike myseIf fine.
:49:50
Down deep, I sense that you don't.
:49:53
- You're the one that's Iivin' Iike a Ioser.
- Why? Cos I haven't made it?
:49:56
That's the beauty of this business.
:49:59
Overnight you can go
from a bum to a hero.
