I'm an artist, and I won't change
a word of my play...
:02:03
to pander to some commercial
Broadway audience!
:02:05
I'm not arguing with you!
Do you see me arguing?
:02:09
Your play is great as is. It's real.
It makes a point. It's confrontational.
:02:12
- Then why won't you produce it?
- Because I cannot afford
another failure.
:02:16
- David, the play's too heavy.
- But not everybody writes to distract.
:02:19
- [ Groans ]
- It's the theater's duty
not just to entertain...
:02:22
- but to transform men's souls.
- Oh, come on.
:02:25
You're not at one of your sidewalk cafes
in Greenwich Village. This is Broadway.
:02:28
- You said you believed in my play!
- What do you want me to say?
:02:31
I'm tapped out. Maybe if we got some
big-time director interested...
:02:34
- I could scare up backers--
- No, no, no. I'm directing this play.
:02:38
Ohh, will you listen to this guy?
Where's your track record?
:02:41
I won't see my work mangled again.
I've been through this twice before.
:02:43
Two powerful scripts,
could have been tremendous successes...
:02:46
and I had to watch actors change
my dialogue and directors
misinterpret everything!
:02:51
I know. I know.
You're an artist.
:02:53
Let me tell you, kid, that's the
real world out there, and it's
a lot rougher than you think.
