"You'll be surprised, you're doing

the French Mistake. Voil!"

All right, cut!

Wrong!

Just watch me. It's so simple!

You sissy Marys!

Give me the playback.

And watch me, faggots!

Have you got it?

Yessssssss.

Sounds like steam escaping!

Action! Okay, wait until I get out.

Cut! What in the hell

do you think you're doing here?

This is a closed set!

Piss on you!

I'm working for Mel Brooks.

Not in the face!

Thank you.

They've hit Buddy!

Come on, girls!

You vulgar sh*t!

Why, you miserable pansy!

I'm parked over by the commissary.

You brute, you brute,

you vicious brute!

All right, all right...

How many days do you have left, Joey?

They lose me right

after the bunker scene.

What the hell is that?

Get your pies for the great pie fight!

This is our Studio commissary

where some Hollywood stars...

...come to eat. Keep in line.

And now we'll go to the

Special Effects Department.

Yankee bean soup, cole slaw

and tuna surprise.

Taxi!

Drive me off this picture!

You dropped your beads.

One, please.

Uh, student.

Are you kidding?

Pain in the ass.

Look, Herman,

I'm in Hedy Lamarr's shoes!

Hedley!

Freeze it!

Okay, Lamarr, go for your gun.

Wait, wait, I'm unarmed.

All right, we'll settle it like men.

With our fists.

Sorry, I just remembered. I am armed.

How did he do such fantastic stunts

with such little feet?

You shot the bad guy!

Well, what do you want to do now?

Come on, let's check out

the end of the flick.

I sure hope there's a happy ending.

I love a happy ending.

Sheriff, you can't go now.

We need you.

My work here is done.

I'm needed elsewhere now.

I'm needed wherever

outlaws rule the West.

Wherever innocent women and children

are afraid to walk the streets.

Wherever a man cannot

live in simple dignity.

Wherever people cry out for justice.

Bullshit!

All right, you caught me.

To speak the plain truth, it's getting

pretty damn dull around here.

Good luck, Bart, and God bless you.

'Bye, baby brother.

Keep the faith, brothers!

Where are you headed, cowboy?

Nowhere special.

Nowhere special.

I always wanted to go there.

Come on!

"He conquered fear and

he conquered hate. "

"He turned our night into day. "
