Mr. McGuire is a big director. Esther Victoria Blodgett - aka Vicki Lester:
Oh, are you really? Oh, could you possibly use me in a picture, Mr. McGuire? Of course, I haven't had much experience, but I don't think that really matters if you're willing. And I really feel that... Danny McGuire:

As they say they're
the best in town.
00:00:04.906 --> 00:00:06.255
Don't tell me.
00:00:06.817 --> 00:00:08.451
I know Mae West.
00:00:08.893 --> 00:00:10.988
That's a great twist,
but where are you going
00:00:10.989 --> 00:00:12.991
to find a two month old
baby that can sing?
00:00:16.999 --> 00:00:17.088
- Hello Oliver.
- Oh, hello Casey.
00:00:18.257 --> 00:00:20.215
You want to fire me now or
wait till you see the picture?
00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:23.813
I'm not a director any
more I'm a male nurse.
00:00:24.443 --> 00:00:25.908
What's the matter
with the picture?
00:00:25.909 --> 00:00:27.295
A guy by the name of Norman Main.
00:00:28.594 --> 00:00:30.924
His work is beginning to
interfere with his drinking.
00:00:32.785 --> 00:00:36.000
Oliver, don't tell me I'm to
direct his next picture too.
00:00:37.928 --> 00:00:39.575
You were my favourite producer.
00:00:39.079 --> 00:00:42.004
Now wait a minute, you just go
right on with your directing.
00:00:42.508 --> 00:00:45.267
I'll take care of these stars.
I know how to handle them.
00:00:45.629 --> 00:00:47.335
I had a serious talk
with Norman after
00:00:47.336 --> 00:00:48.735
that Hollywood Bowl occurrence.
00:00:49.026 --> 00:00:51.998
And you not have to worry any
more about his behaviour.
00:00:51.295 --> 00:00:52.034
Excuse me Mister Niles.
00:00:52.875 --> 00:00:55.468
Mr Libby, of your publicity
department is on the telephone.
00:00:55.782 --> 00:00:57.335
He says it's most important sir.
00:00:57.831 --> 00:00:59.639
- About Mr Maine.
- Thank you.
00:01:02.645 --> 00:01:05.113
Oh, it's probably just
some little thing.
00:01:05.114 --> 00:01:06.235
Of course Oliver.
00:01:06.515 --> 00:01:08.167
I'll turn on the radio
and see if he's
00:01:08.001 --> 00:01:09.649
called out the National Guard yet.
00:01:11.055 --> 00:01:13.993
Hello Libby, what's the good word?
00:01:13.599 --> 00:01:17.188
Mister Norman Maine,
America's prince charming...
00:01:17.696 --> 00:01:20.999

an ambulance down
00:01:20.452 --> 00:01:23.999
Wilshire Blvd. With a
siren going full blast.
00:01:23.001 --> 00:01:27.999
