:25:02
- They were playing pinochle.
- How did this happen?
:25:05
It's probably those electrical storms.
The air is charged.
:25:08
Fellas, I depend on the Jewel.
:25:10
I got personal expenses, I got
no substitute picture to put in here.
:25:13
I want my money back. This is a swindle.
:25:16
There's no story. Mrs Lupus likes a story.
:25:18
You should turn the projector off. This
could be the work of Reds or anarchists.
:25:23
If he turns off the projector, you'll strand
Tom Baxter out in the world someplace.
:25:28
- You want an extra guy running around?
- I saw the movie last week. This is not it.
:25:32
- Where is the Tom Baxter character?
- You'll get your money back.
:25:36
I want what happened
in the movie last week to happen.
:25:39
Otherwise, what's life about anyway?
:25:41
Can't we go in and take a look?
We don't want to stay long.
:25:44
If you want a seat,
you have to pay admission.
:25:47
OK. Keep moving, folks.
:25:50
- Any word about Tom Baxter?
- Nothing yet.
:25:53
So what are you doing here? We can't
continue the story till Tom gets back.
:25:57
Oh, we don't mind observing you all.
:25:59
Yes. My husband is a student
of the human personality.
:26:02
Oh, yeah? Well, we're not human.
:26:04
No matter to Harold.
He has trouble with humans.
:26:07
I have trouble? What,
do I have trouble with the real people?
:26:10
I suppose you behave perfectly with
Donald? He won't speak to my son-in-law.
:26:14
I won't speak? The kid is quiet.
He never makes conversation.
:26:17
- He has to be drawn out.
- I don't like to draw people out.
:26:20
That's what I said.
He has trouble with live humans.
:26:23
- Yes. Yes, RKO.
- I want my money back!
:26:26
I wanna speak to Mr Raoul Hirsch.
:26:30
Yes, Mr Hirsch.
:26:32
He's the producer of
The Purple Rose of Cairo, yes.
:26:36
No, he's not. Just tell him
I have a theatre in New Jersey...
:26:40
..and there's a crisis with his film.
:26:42
Yes, this is Mr Hirsch.
What's the problem?
:26:46
- What?
- They're just sitting around on the screen.
:26:50
Rita, the Countess,
Larry Wilde, the playboy...
:26:53
People are demanding their money back.
The theatre is nine-tenths empty.
:26:59
- Come on, take a walk, will you?
- Look, he just walked out.
