I'll exploit you from coast to coast. Exploit? What is that? I'll put you over, I'll sell you. -Sell me? -To the public. And I'll make them pay for you. And how much will you pay me? I'll advertise your name from every corner. Women will be wearing Anna Held hats, shoes, corsets. Even the children will know you. But how much will you pay me? More publicity than you've ever dreamed of. Yes, that's all right. But how much money will you give me? I'll give you the greatest opening night that New York has ever had. You'll see the Goulds, the Astors, the Vanderbilts. "Diamond Jim" Brady, Lillian Russell. -Lillian Russell? -Yes. -Oh, I would so much like to see her. -Well. No. First you must speak about the money because I have so many offers now. I'll meet your biggest offer. Really? Well, that is very nice of you. But maybe when you hear how much it is, you don't think I'm worth so much. How much is it? They are all very good, but the highest one is that of Mr. Billings. He says he will give me 50,000 francs besides my salary, which is very big... ...just to sign the contract. That is how much in American money? -$ 1 0,000, madame. -$ 1 0,000, monsieur. -Ten thousand dollars. -Oui, that's a very big amount. And even if you would give me the $ 1 0,000 and I sign with you... ...you still would have to wait till I finished my London engagement. I couldn't do that. You couldn't even wait for me? I couldn't even give you the $ 1 0,000. -You think it's too much, huh? -I think it isn't enough. But I haven't it. What, you expect I should sign a contract for America with you... -...and you don't even have $ 1 0,000? -I haven't even 1 000. I did have before I stopped at Monte Carlo, but right now, I haven't even 1 00. -But I'll spread your name all over-- -It is enough! You're just trying to make the fool of me. You are the impostor. You are no gentleman. Please go. Marie, open the door. Monsieur Ziegfeld. Come back, please. Sit down. You know, you're very honest. I like you very much. Mr. Vanderbilt's carriage. Mr. Van Rensselaer's carriage. -She has big eyes. -But I couldn't understand a word she said. -I'll take Lillian Russell. -Mr. Astor's carriage. -Did you like her? -Cute. Did you notice the empty seats? Miss Russell's carriage. -I think she's charming. -Why, there's Lillian Russell. Mr. Thaw's carriage. Never mind, I don't want a carriage. The show's all right if they had an American star. Mrs. Harriman's carriage. Mr. Stuyvesant's carriage. You made a bad bet, Jim. -May I have your carriage called, Mr. Brady? -Yes. Oh, Ziggy. Stanford and I just made a little wager. He bet me 5000 that I wouldn't get back the 1 0,000 you borrowed... -...to bring Anna over here. -Mr. Brady's carriage. I'll split your end 50-50 with you, Mr. White. I told you so. I told you so. Well, what's a few thousand dollars anyway? Mr. Chandler's carriage. Mr. Saks' carriage. Balcony 22. Well, Sampston, what's the loss this week? The show earned a profit of $ 1 340.32. You drew $2550... ...which gives us a loss of $ 1 209.68. That's terrible. We can't keep the show running with losses. -Say, where's Sage? -Upstairs. What a press agent, never around. Take a wire to him. -But he's just upstairs in his office. -I know it. Take a wire anyway. How can you do business without publicity? Stop. Anna Held was the sensation of Europe. Stop. Appeared before kings and queens. Stop. Yet you get nothing in the papers. Stop. You're ruining me. Stop. If you're a press agent, I'm President Cleveland. Stop. Beg your pardon. Pardon, madame. It is not jolie. It is jolly. Jolie, that's what I said, jolie. Pardon, it's my mistake. I mean jolly. Jolly. Good. Please, let's start again. Jolly. No, no, no. I won't sing today. I can't sing today. I'm much too much inside here. Much too much. Marie? Marie.
