Artie
Hey, Gillis! We'd given you up.
Let me take your coat.
Jesus, Joe, what's this made of? Mink?
Who did you borrow this from? Adolphe Menjou?
Joe
Close, but no cigar. Hey! It's quite a crowd.
Artie
I invited all the kids doing walk-ons in "Samson and Delilah"
Betty
Where have you been hiding?
I called your apartment. I called your ex-agent.
I was about to call the Bureau of Missing Persons.
Joe
Well, they always know where to find me.
Richard A.
Hey, Sammy!
You gotta say your new year's resolution out loud.
Jean!
Jean
By this time next year, I'll have landed a juicy part
Steve
Nineteen fifty will be my start
Richard T.
No more carrying spears
Mary
I'll be discovered, my life won't ever be the same.
Billy Wilder will know my name
And he will call me all the time
Katherine
'Til he does, can one of you guy lend her a dime?
Alisa
Just an apartment with no roaches and no dry rot
Anita
Where the hot water comes out hot
Both
That's my Hollywood dream
Richard A.
Your resolution
Joanna
Is to write something that get shot
With approximately the plot I first had in my head
Myron
But you'll get rewritten even after you're dead.
Richard A.
Artie!
Artie
It's a year to begin a new life
Buy a place somewhere quiet, somewhere pretty.
When you have a young kid and a wife
Then you need somewhere green far from the city
It's rambling old house with a big apple tree
With a swing for the kid and a hammock for me.
Sammy
Behold, my children, it is I, Cecil B. De Mille,
Meeting me must be quite a thrill,
Adam
But there's no need to kneel
Sammy
I guarantee you every girl in my chorus line
Is a genuine Philistine
Sandy
They don't come off the shelf
Sammy
I flew everyone in from Philistia myself
Betty
I have some good news, it's "Blind Windows"
Joe
You don't let go
Betty
I gave Sheldrake an outline, Joe, and he swallowed the bait.
Joe
Well, Hallelujah!
Betty
While you have been buying vicuna coats,
I have been making a lot of notes,
Now there's work we should do...
Joe
Betty, you're forgetting that I gave it to you
You remind me of me long ago
Off the bus, full of ignorant ambition
Thought I'd waltz into some studio
And achieve overight recognition,
I've seen too many optimists sinking like stones
Felt them suck all the marrow clean out of my bones.
Betty
I love "Blind Windows" but I can't write it on my own.
Can't we speak on the telephone?
All my evening are free.
Artie
Hey, just a minute, I'm the fellow who bought the ring
Betty
Artie, this is a business thing it's important to me
You'll be on location in Clinch, Tennessee.
Please make this your New Year's resolution for me.
All
By this time next year I will get my foot in the door
Next year I know I'm going to score an amazing success
Cut to the moment when they open the envelope
Pass the statuette to Bob Hope and it's my name you hear
We'll be down on our knees outside Grauman's chinese
Palm prints there on the street immortality's neat!
This time next year, this time next year.
We'll have nothing to fear contracts all signed
Three-pictures deal yellow brick road career
Hope we're not still saying these things this time next year.
Joe
You know, I think I will be available in the New Year.
In fact, I'm available right now.
Betty
Joe, that's great!
Joe
Hey, Artie, where's your phone?
Artie
Under the bar
Joe
Hey, Artie,
You think you could put me up for a couple of weeks?
Artie
It's just so happens we've got a vacancy on the couch
Joe
I'll take it.
Max
Yes?
Joe
Max, it's Mr. Gillis, I want you to do me a favor
Max
I'm sorry Mr. Gillis. I can't talk right now
Joe
Listen, I want you to take my old suitcases...
Max
I'm sorry, I'm attending to Madame.
Joe
What do you mean?
Max
Madame found a razor in your room.
And she's cut her wrists.
All
Three, two, one, Happy New Year!
Should auld acquaintance be forgot and never brought to mind
Should auld acquaintance be forgot and days of auld lang syne.
For auld lang syne, my dear, for auld lang syne
We'll take a cup of kindness yet for the sake of auld lang syne
