:36:01
Oh, boy!
:36:03
Did you get it?
:36:08
They're gonna make the decision this
weekend, but it looks like I got it.

:36:14
Big role?
:36:16
They throw me up on that screen, I'll
blow up too large. People be like:

:36:20
"Denzel who?"
You know what I'm saying?

:36:23
I hope it works out.
:36:25
Then I can say I knew you when.
:36:27
- "The fool on the bus."
- Right on.

:36:29
Go on your way
to the Million Man March, 1995.

:36:34
Say...
:36:36
...what do you think he's thinking?
:36:39
Mighty whitey, driving the bus.
:36:41
Right now he's probably thinking
about kicking his boss's ass.

:36:47
You don't have a problem with him.
:36:50
You got no problem with him
because you share a white thing.

:36:53
You know what I mean.
:36:54
I already told you,
I consider myself black.

:36:58
Hang on. No disrespect, brother.
I didn't...

:37:00
A person is white,
doesn't mean I dislike him.

:37:03
And just because a person is black
does not mean I like him.

:37:06
I consider myself black,
just like Bob Marley.

:37:09
- I'm not talking about him.
- He was mulatto. I'm black.

:37:12
No disrespect, partner, but I could
consider myself 6'4" and ugly.

:37:17
The fact remains that I'm 6 foot and
too cute for the English vocabulary.

:37:21
Wait a minute, Mr. Hollywood.
:37:25
The man is black.
:37:27
Just let him be.
:37:28
He's also white!
:37:30
If this was slavery,
would ole massa care?

:37:32
He'd be a slave like the rest of us.
:37:35
He'd be a house slave
in the big house.

:37:38
While we'd be talking about grits...
:37:40
...he'd eat potatoes.
:37:41
He'd have the breast of chicken.
:37:43
Our women would be blistered
from picking cotton.

:37:46
His would be bathed, smelling good.
:37:48
And 9 times out of 10,
the honey he'd hit skins with...

:37:52
...she'd be a white girl.
:37:54
Hold it just a minute.
:37:56
About the grits:
:37:57
Grits was for the white folks
up in the big house.
