First Action, I-scene MINISTRUL PALACE
Boys and girls, sit down.
Now friends, I will introduce you to our leader.
A gentleman who does not need a presentation.
One of the shining stars on the screen,
whose name is at the top of the language of all.
I turn to my friend and colleague...
Friend...
Conrad Nagel. - Conrad Neagle.
Thank you, Jack.
Ladies and gentlemen, it is a great honor to me as a show host
to introduce you to some of the most famous favorites
from the screen and from the stage.
Never before have I been communicating with a group of artists,
where such harmony prevails.
We are all like a big happy family.
And I want to start,
introducing you to one of Broadway's biggest favorites.
The man whose voice you have heard in many musical comedies...
Charlie King.
Charley, I'm surprised...
Why did not you let me go, I would say something nice to you.
Excuse me, Conrad, I was wrong, I thought you'd introduce someone else.
No. - Let me apologize.
It's all right, Charley. - Boys and girls,
who is the world's largest leader?
Conrad Nagel.
And who's the biggest lover on the screen?
No one but little Cliffe.
Hello, who are you?
Do not tell me you did not hear about the little Cliff.
Okay, Cliffe who? "You did not buy plates?"
Yes. - All right, listen.
No! Now? Wonderful.
Come on, come on, Cliffe.
She is pretty.
She's one of my favorites. I know you like it too.
Because he is the embodiment of youth,
beauty, joy and happiness. Joan Crawford!
Very nice of you, Conrad, thank you.
I think Joan has prepared a surprise for you.
So, friends, our show continues and I want to introduce you...
One moment, old friend.
I have something to tell you. - What do you wanna do?
You know, that night my wife was in the movies.
And she saw you in a movie with Greta Garbo.
One of those with kisses.
And when you came home, he struck me with the chair on my head.
Boy, I'm terribly sorry. How can I make up for you?
I loan $ 7 to buy another chair.
And by the way, because of the husbands,
from now on will you kiss them on your forehead?
I will make sure you sit now and keep quiet, thank you.
Now, ladies and gentlemen, it is my honor to introduce you
one of your biggest pets.
A person who is not afraid.
Whose golden voice has enchanted millions.
His records are sold with thousands.
His name is known all over the world where there is a radio.
His songs are known all over the world, from pole to pole.
His golden voice bears like a zephyr over the fields with beautiful flowers.
It is my pleasure and honor
to present to you my colleague, my friend,
Mr. Charlie King!
Charlie! Charley, man, it was wonderful!
I know he touched every viewer deep here, like me.
You're a great performer, Charley, and I admire you.
Thank you, Conrad. I also admire you.
Your work on the big screen is remarkable.
And as a lover you were the last.
But there are new techniques.
Today you have to be able to make love with words and music.
You will save money, right?
Remember that little song I was supposed to sing
in "Broadway melody"?
Yes, Charley, it was wonderful.
That's why you're disabled. Your friends in the cinema can not sing.
I do not know. But we can not avoid it if it is necessary.
Do not make me laugh. Being a lover does not mean you are a canary.
Charley, I think you're a little rough.
Conrad? - Excuse me.
Hi, Anita, how are you? - Well thank you.
See Conrad...
Lower the curtain. Boys, push the piano.
Well, I think Charlie King has listened to me.
Do not argue with movie stars. - Excuse me.
Miss, I know you from somewhere. Have I seen you in Omaha?
I never forget faces.
The next number, ladies and gentlemen, will be a song by Cliff Edwards.
Hey, I do not want that. "Do not you want me to introduce you?"
Of course I want you to introduce me, but not that way.
I want a nice presentation as Conrad Nagel presented Charlie King.
He used big words and said such good things about him.
Say that my voice is like a breeze, that I'm witty.
Tell them as I would tell them. Come on, tell them.
Okay, listen to this. - All right.
Ladies and gentlemen, the next number is the lead in our review.
Name that can do miracles.
The brightest name in the world of entertainment.
Name, synonymous with crowded theaters and cheerful crowds.
One genius, one artist, one performer...
Cliff Edwards. - Who?
Go away.
Guys, guys!
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Carl Dane and George Arthur.
The Amazing Arthur and the Great Dane.
That's exactly what I was afraid of.
I did not have to represent them.
Do you know what I like best in this review?
The friendship between the theatrical and film actors.
As Mr. Neagle noted as a great happy family.
Hello, Mr. Benny. "How are you, Mr. Haynes?"
I heard the good things you said about the boys and girls in the cinema.
I personally wrote it. "So you're from New York?"
Yes.
You know, Mr Benny,
I've always enjoyed watching you. - Really?
In fact, the first time I was watching you, I think it was in Chicago.
And the second time I was watching you was, wait for me to think.
In Detroit.
And once again I've seen you. I think he was in...
in St. Paul. I remember then.
You forgot Minneapolis. I was there a week ago.
Thanks.
How can they eat it? - Do you know, Mr Benny,
this is a very nice silk waistcoat.
It's not silk, it's a pearl. - Fuck, silk is.
No, Mr. Haynes, it is a perlon.
Mr. Benny, you know that the silk is cutting like that.
You see, it's very simple. "I may have gone wrong.
A pearl, you see, it clears diagonally.
You see, it's very simple. - I think it's silk.
Excuse me, Mr. Haynes. Can I tell you something?
Miss Lee! Gwen!
What's wrong with me?
You're a little more sensitive.
Just like a happy family.
Now I have a little surprise for you. I present to you Bessie Love.
It's right here in my pocket.
He was here a minute ago.
Bessie, where are you? - Here I am, Jack.
What are you doing out there when I put you in this pocket?
I hate that pocket. There is nothing there.
Like any woman. You do not know in which pocket you will find it.
Get out of there, Bessie. I hold my money there.
I can not go out. I was titled in a 20-dollar bill.
Probably not mine.
Come on, Bessie, come out. Step on my hand.
How nice it is when you get out of your pocket.
There you are.
Jack, are you the one I met in Atlantic City?
No no no.
Step there, Bessie. Do not jump! - There is no.
Exactly. Now grow up, I want to talk to you.
There you are.
Are you sure we have not met before?
Do not you remember? - I do not remember anything!
What's wrong with me?
Did anyone see William Haynes? There is no way to be on this review.
Bad work. Something is happening behind my back.
Raise the curtain!
As you know, wars are the cause of many catastrophes around the world.
Empires are crushed, kingdoms are swept away.
Royal families became ordinary people,
forced to work for crust bread.
Even on this show we have royal people who wanted to be with us.
I am proud and happy to introduce you
Her Majesty, the beloved Queen Mary Dresler
and the charming little princess Polly Moran!
The queen goes in! Friends, get up!
Did you hear that? Is that their big idea?
Do you see what I see?
Your Majesty, this is the king's drinker.
I had to take his phone.
The place is crowded.
Open in the name of the queen! - Oh, the queen!
How about having some fun tonight?
Did he hear? This teasing makes fun of me.
At death, Your Majesty! To death!
Again "Death"! - Tell me what to do?
So sentenced to death, and I have not sent him yet, are you?
Yes! - I am not yet!
Yes.
Your Majesty, you have a great heart.
And as a queen you have to sing.
And what will the good queen sing?
Opera? The good queen will sing.
