:41:00
something honest.
:41:02
I got to tell you,
:41:04
the life of the mind...
:41:06
There's no road map
for that territory.

:41:09
And exploring it
can be painful.

:41:13
I have pain most people
don't know anything about.

:41:19
This must be boring you.
:41:21
Not at all.
It's damned interesting.

:41:23
Yeah.
:41:24
Probably sounds a little grand
:41:26
for someone who's writing
a wrestling picture

:41:28
for Wallace Beery.
:41:30
Beery?
You got no beef there.

:41:32
He's a hell of an actor,
:41:33
though you can't beat Jack Oakie.
:41:36
A stitch, Oakie.
:41:37
Funny stuff, funny stuff.
:41:39
But don't get me wrong.
:41:40
Beery? Wrestling picture?
Could be a pip.

:41:43
Could be a pip.
:41:44
Wrestled myself some back in school.
:41:46
I guess you know the basic moves.
:41:49
No. I never watched any.
:41:50
I'm not interested in the act.
:41:52
Hell, you should know
what it's about.

:41:54
I can show you
the wrestling basics in 30 seconds.

:41:58
You're a little
out of your weight class,

:42:00
but just for demonstration purposes...
:42:02
That's all right.
:42:03
Not a bit of it, compadre.
:42:05
Easiest thing in the world.
:42:06
Just get on your knees
to my left here.

:42:09
Slap your right hand here,
your left hand here.

:42:12
Come on, champ.
You can do it. Come on.

:42:15
Come on.
:42:18
Come on.
:42:19
Come on.
:42:22
Yeah. There you go.
:42:24
Right there.
:42:27
All right.
:42:29
Now, when I say, "Ready, wrestle,"
:42:31
we try to pin each other.
:42:33
That's the whole game.
Got it?

:42:35
Yeah. Okay.
:42:36
Ready? Wrestle.
:42:37
Oh!
:42:38
1, 2, 3.
:42:39
Damn. There I go again.
:42:41
Going to wake up
the downstairs neighbors.

:42:43
I didn't hurt you, did I?
:42:45
It's okay.
:42:46
Well, that's all wrestling is.
:42:48
Usually there's
more grunting and squirming

:42:50
before the pin.
:42:51
Well, you're out of your weight class.
:42:54
Jesus, I did hurt you.
:42:56
I sure do apologize.
:42:57
I'm just a big, clumsy lug.
