The Anatomy of a Chase: Behind the Scenes of the Filming of 'The Seven-Ups' Page #2

---

There's some coffee for you, Bruno.

Uh, no. No, thanks.

I'm trying to cut down.

Ahh.

- How'd it go?

- It went good, real good.

- Good.

- $11,050, Mr. Kalish.

And it's all accounted for.

And here's a checklist.

Nice, very nice.

- Anybody complain?

- Oh, sure.

You know,

O'Brien and Holland, as usual.

I told them to try

doing business with the banks.

- Not to mention Internal Revenue, huh?

- You know it.

Okay.

[Engine Starts]

[No Audible Dialogue]

Okay, Bobby.

Take care of the money.

- Hi, baby.

- Hi, honey.

- You want the usual?

- Yeah, make it a big one tonight, huh?

- Whew, cold.

- Yeah, honey?

Yeah.

[Doorbell Rings]

I'll get it, sweetie.

- Mr. Kalish?

- Yeah, that's right.

Police.

Aw, come on, boys.

Not again.

So important it couldn't

wait till tomorrow?

Does he know where he's going?

You going the right way?

Hey, come on, fellas.

What is this?

Where the hell are we going?

All I want to know is

what the hell this is all about.

That's all.

Just tell me what it's all about.

You want money, you got it. Just name your price.

Anything you want, all right?

For Christ's sake, will you talk to me?

We'll make a deal.

Tell me what you want.

We'll talk, for God's sakes.

- Go on, get out.

- Come on, fellas. Will you wait a minute now?

- Hurry up.

- Will you just tell me what this is all about?

Will you listen to me?

Jesus Christ, will you listen?

Will you listen to me, for Christ's sake?

You're making a mistake.

- We don't make any mistakes.

- You're making a mistake!

Now tell me again: Why we gotta get

the car washed? I didn't really get that part.

Look, Bobby, what can I tell you?

All I know is what the guy said on the phone.

He said 100 G's in the trunk.

And get the car washed

at the place they told us.

- That's it, man.

- Well, what do they want us

to do with the ransom?

Don't worry about it.

They'll tell us.

- ##[Radio:
Rock]

- [Horn Honking]

- You want the wax?

- Yeah.

That'll be a dollar and a quarter.

- Keep the change.

- Thank you.

[Buzzing]

Quick, Bobby! Bobby, get 'em!

Bobby, they're in the trunk!

- Bobby, open the window! Get out!

- I can't! I can't get out!

- Bobby, get out, will ya?

- I can't get out! I'm stuck!

- Goddamn it!

- Just get out!

Where did they go, Bobby?

Where do you want me to go?

I'm stuck. I can't, goddamn it!

[Grunts]

[C*cks]

Yeah, yeah. Go ahead.

Move, mother, and I'll burn you.

- Go ahead. Go ahead and try it.

- [Muffled Grunting]

[Clicks]

Bastards. Dirty bastards!

- [Chattering, Indistinct]

- [Horns Honking]

- Buddy!

- Mrs. Pugliesi.

- Buddy.

- How are you?

- How are you, gorgeous?

- How's Papa?

Ah, he's all right, you know.

Tell Grace I said hello.

- All right?

- Yes. When are you going to come to see us?

Soon, soon.

[Whistling]

Hey, yo, tiger.

Hey, Ralphie.

[Man On Radio Speaking Italian]

[Knocking]

[No Audible Dialogue]

[Man On Radio Continues]

- Hey, Buddy.

- How are you? Nice to see you.

Hey, listen, chief.

I'm running a little late, so-

Get in the chair.

Get in the chair.

- Get in the chair.

- ##[Radio:
Waltz]

- Hey, something is going on.

- Like what?

I've seen more guns...

and more jumpy guys around

in the last couple of weeks...

than I have seen

in the last 10 years.

So watch your step.

Okay, thanks.

Hey, what's that?

What are you-

- Aw, I'll break your head.

- Ciao.

[Indistinct]

[Woman] Now, they're all of varying sizes

and shapes and all of different species...

and you'll find that most of them

grow in tropical climates.

The leaves are called fronds. Do you have any idea

where some of them might grow, Maximilia?

- Well, they probably grow in Florida.

- In Florida, yes.

- Some of them do.

- Bermuda?

Bermuda.

Do any of you have any idea

why they're called palm trees?

- They're as big as your palm.

- Do you see any that might

be shaped like your palm?

- How about that one over there?

- Mm-hmm.

- That's pretty close to your palm, isn't it?

- Hey, yeah. It is.

Perhaps when they first saw that tree,

they decided to call them palm trees.

- [All Chuckle]

- And how about over there?

You see the bamboo trees?

Yeah, over there.

They're very close to the type of grass

that grows on your lawn.

See all the little leaves on top?

Do they remind you of the grass on your lawn?

- [Boy] Well, kind of.

- [Girl] No, they don't.

[Woman]

No? Oh, I see.

[Woman Continues, Indistinct]

Well?

- [Chuckling]

- How did it go?

Easy, so easy.

Beauty, beauty.

You'd have to cut up a shitpot full of stiffs

for that kind of dough, undertaker.

You're getting a lead on the next,

aren't you?

Vito, Vito, Vito.

We're rolling.

What did I tell you

when we began, huh?

We gotta be careful.

Don't push it, not get greedy.

Come on.

You gotta be kidding me.

You gonna do it my way?

- Hmm?

- [Chuckles]

- Come on. I'll tell you when and where.

- [Chuckles]

- I'll tell you when I think it's safe.

- All right.

I'll give you a call.

- Okay?

- Okay.

Hey, Moon.

Go out that way, huh?

[Door Opens]

Sissy, I'll be back in five minutes.

Let's go.

Don't worry.

I'm telling you, don't worry about a thing.

- Jerry, I want you to meet Tony.

Here's all the paperwork.

- Hi, Tony. How are you?

- Now don't worry about it. You'll see.

- Thanks, Mr. Festa.

Come on, Tony.

[Horn Honks]

[Mutters, Indistinct]

- Hold it, Mr. Festa.

- What are you talking about?

- Police.

- How do you know my name?

- We know who you are.

- Sure you got the right guy?

- Get in the car.

- The D.A. Wants to see you.

- For what?

- I said, "Let's go!"

- Damn it. Come on!

- I told you to keep going. Get in the car.

- Where you taking me?

- All right!

- What's going on?

We're on the job. D.A.'s office.

Come on. Get in there.

- Wait a while!

- Get in there!

I don't have to go downtown like this!

- [Horn Honking]

- [No Audible Dialogue]

[Tires Screeching]

You mind telling us

what that was all about?

Yeah, a couple guys from the D.A.'s office

nearly caused a riot.

Trying to take some dude downtown.

I don't think he was too happy about it though.

Trying to take some dude downtown.

I don't think he was too happy about it though.

[Vito]

Look at those two ugly things.

They weren't here when we went to school,

I'll tell you that.

- Where were we, in the second floor?

- [Buddy] No, no. Three, 303.

Right.

Hey, remember Mrs. Hatchfield?

Man, did she give me such a hit.

I can still feel it when I think about her.

- You deserved it.

- I deserved it?

You're the guy that was

playing grab-ass with Fat Mary.

What have you heard about Festa?

Festa? The bondsman?

Festa, the President

of the United States.

Nah. Nah, I mean, you know.

I thought we were talking

about the guy in Bath Beach.

Festa.

How come you're on him now?

I think he's disappeared.

No sh*t?

We checked the office.

We checked the house.

I don't know. There's something going on.

The guy is nowhere.

Jesus.

I'll see what I can do for you.
