Blowup: San Francisco

---

- It's too long. Nice to see you again.

- Cheerio.

Give me your money. Do it!

Thank you.

Blue 439.

Blue 439. Over.

Blue 439. Go ahead, please. Over.

Phone Weston 0219.

Tell 'em I'm on my way, will you?

Roger. Wilco. Stand by.

- Hello, love.

- Hello.

Here.

- Get that stuff developed, will you?

- Yeah.

Right away.

Here I am.

Ready?

I've been ready for nearly an hour.

Good.

I'm catching a plane for Paris

at 11:
00, so I can't -

Can't what?

It doesn't matter.

Who the hell were you with last night?

Reg?

Reg, let's have some noise, can you?

Right.

That's good. That's good. Hold that.

Reg?

Give it to me now. Come on. That's good.

Hunch. Hunch more.

That's good.

That's good.

And the hair back. And the hair back.

Come on. That's great.

That's great! That's good. Good.

Come on. More of that.

Now really give it to me.

That's good. As fast as you can.

Give it to me. Come on. Right forward.

Good. That's good.

Now this side. Lean right forward.

Hand up. Hand up. That's great.

Just touch the face. Just touch the face.

That's very good. And again.

Around this way. Touch the face again.

Good. Now the hair. Marvelous. That's great.

Good. Yes, the hair. Much more. Much more.

Good. That's great. Yes, that's great.

That's good. Yes. Go on. And again.

Oh, hold that, with the hair. Again.

Good.

Okay, Reg, flip me.

On your back.

On your back. Go on.

Yes. Now, really give it. Come on.

Come on. Work, work, work!

Great. Great. And again. Go on.

Back. Back. Arms up. Arms up.

Stretch yourself. Amazing. Great.

And again. Go on. Go, go.

Great.

That's it! Keep it up! Lovely!

Yeah, make it come. Great!

No. No. Head up, head up.

For me, love. For me.

Now! Now! Yes!

Yes! Yes!

Hello.

Yeah, hold on.

It's Peter.

Hello?

Huh? Yes.

Yes.

Yeah, I've got it somewhere.

I know I have.

Huh? Yeah, hold on.

Reg, take down the address of

that bloody junk shop, would you?

Why, they're fabulous. Go on.

Yes.

Yes. Great.

Here, you can burn that lot.

Reg!

- Get the birds down, will you?

- Okay.

Oi! No chewing gum. Get rid of it.

And not on my floor.

You. Arm down.

Right.

Six, yeah.

Terrible.

How about the leg

a little further forward?

Put the head up.

Just go. Mouth open. Yes, good.

Good.

No, you're - Start again.

Start again. Rethink it.

Rethink it.

Stripes, let the dress just fall down.

Absolutely fall. Keep the stripes steady.

It's very important to keep -

Just let your arms go up and down.

Yes! Very tasty.

Yes, I like it, I like it. Go on.

Yeah.

All right, change position.

Yup.

Wake up!

Now, you can thank your lucky stars

you're working with me, can't you?

All right, one more.

And a smile now. Come on.

Smile.

Smile!

God.

I asked you to smile.

What's the matter?

Have you forgotten what a smile is?

Eh?

All right, you're all tired now.

Go on, relax.

I can't see your eyeballs anymore.

They're just slits.

Go on.

Close your eyes.

Close your eyes.

And stay like that.

It's good for you.

Sometimes you really dig a girl

The moment you kiss her

And you get distracted

by her older sister

Then in walks her father

and takes you a line

Close your eyes.

That must be five or six years old.

They don't mean anything

when I do them. Just a mess.

Afterwards I find something to hang on to.

Like that... Like that leg.

Then it sorts itself out...

and adds up.

It's like finding a clue in a detective story.

Don't ask me about this one.

I don't know yet.

- Can I buy it?

- No.

Will you give it to me?

There.

Mmm. Thanks.

Tight-faced bastard.

He won't sell me

one of his crappy paintings!

Mmm.

I'll creep down one night

and knock it off.

Mmm, don't stop. It's lovely.

- You look tired.

- Mmm.

I've been all night in a doss house.

They say they've been asked to come here.

Not by me.

Well, we weren't exactly asked.

Sorry. I'm busy.

They're printing some snaps for me upstairs.

Go and fetch 'em.

Couldn't you give us

just a couple of minutes?

A couple of minutes?

I haven't even got a couple of minutes

to have my appendix out.

You're in a whole lot of trouble

Didn't know you had a double

Dab my feet in the water

Thought you was an only daughter

Seen a whole lot of trouble

Wow, Jubilee

- When can we come then?

- Don't.

The others still waiting

with their eyes shut?

Yes, they're waiting,

but their eyes are open.

Good.

Then tell them to shut 'em again.

Get rid of that bag. It's diabolical.

Can we come back this afternoon?

- What do you want?

- Just looking around.

There are no cheap bargains here.

You're wasting your time.

Well, I'll just have a look.

- What are you lookin' for?

- Pictures.

No pictures.

What kind of pictures?

Landscapes.

Sorry. No landscapes.

Sold. All sold.

- You the owner?

- No. The owner is out.

Expecting him?

What are you doing?

Stop it! Stop it!

Give me those pictures.

You can't photograph people like that.

Who says I can't? I'm only doing my job.

Some people are bullfighters.

Some people are politicians.

I'm a photographer.

This is a public place.

Everyone has the right to be left in peace.

It's not my fault if there's no peace.

You know, most girls would

pay me to photograph them.

I'll pay you.

I overcharge.

There are other things I want on the reel.

What do we do then?

I'll send you the photographs.

No, I want them now.

Ow! What's the rush?

Don't let's spoil everything.

We've only just met.

No, we haven't met. You've never seen me.

- Hello.

- Hello.

- Uh, my agent saw you about the shop.

- Did he?

He's a man with a cigar.

Throws ash everywhere.

I expect I remember him.

I probably asked for too much money.

Money's always a problem, isn't it?

Tell him to come back.

Why are you selling?

I'd like to try something different,

get off somewhere.

I'm fed up with antiques.

- Get off where?

- To Nepal.

Nepal is all antiques.

- Is it?

- Mm-hmm.

Perhaps I'd better try Morocco.

- How much?

- What?

The propeller.

You can have it for... eight pounds.

Right. You're in business.

Have you got a van?

You can't take it now.

I must. I must.

- I can't live without it.

- Hard luck.

That'll teach you to fall in love

with heavy things on Saturday morning.

- Is that it?

- That's it.

You can't treat it like that.

It's not a delivery van.

Who cares?

Leave it to me. Something will turn up.

Yes. All right.

But it'd better turn up today.

Oi!

Blue 439. Blue 439. Over.

Blue 439. Go ahead, please. Over.

Hello, this is, uh...

Get me Flaxman double 2-4-9.

Mr. Walker. Mr. Peter Walker.

Tell him I've seen the junk shop. It's a bit

pricey, but I think the kid'll come down.

Let him ring her right away.

Then nobody else will get it.

Roger. Wilco. Stand by.

Blue 439. Blue 439. Over.

Blue 439. Blue 439. Go ahead, Echo.

Blue 439. Message passed and understood.

Your caller doesn't like it. Over.

Tell him to get stuffed.

What about all the buildings

going up around the place?

Already there are queers
