The Bonfire of the Vanities Page #11

And Arthur Ruskin.

973

01:
03:19,332 -- 01:03:21,163

And his wife, Maria.

974

01:
03:22,532 -- 01:03:23,965

We've met.

975

01:
03:29,412 -- 01:03:32,802

Couldn't you try just once

to be a little bit interesting?

976

01:
03:32,972 -- 01:03:35,486

I wanted you to meet Aubrey Buffing.

977

01:
03:35,772 -- 01:03:39,321

Aubrey Buffing.

He's on the short list for the Nobel Prize.

978

01:
03:39,412 -- 01:03:41,323

He has AIDS. You'll love him.

979

01:
03:43,172 -- 01:03:46,847

We are in the middle of the room,

a married couple talking to each other.

980

01:
03:46,932 -- 01:03:49,844

You simply don't do it. Go mingle. Please.

981

01:
03:51,212 -- 01:03:55,046

And even when

repentance is offered, he refuses.

982

01:
03:55,372 -- 01:03:57,442

He refuses to deny his life.

983

01:
03:57,732 -- 01:04:00,929

The food, the drink, the flesh...

984

01:
04:01,132 -- 01:04:04,647

fatal as they may be,

he cannot resist them.

985

01:
04:24,172 -- 01:04:26,208

Maria, may I speak to you?

986

01:
04:26,372 -- 01:04:28,203

We have to stop meeting like this.

987

01:
04:28,292 -- 01:04:30,726

-Do you know Boris, the ballet dancer?

-No.

988

01:
04:34,732 -- 01:04:37,121

-He's defective.

-You mean, he defected.

989

01:
04:37,292 -- 01:04:39,681

No, I mean he doesn't speak English.

990

01:
04:40,132 -- 01:04:42,088

Really? Are you sure?

991

01:
04:42,212 -- 01:04:43,884

Do you know what's going on?

992

01:
04:43,972 -- 01:04:46,406

Boris, want me to eat your ass?

993

01:
04:49,012 -- 01:04:51,401

You see? It went right over his head.

994

01:
04:51,532 -- 01:04:54,524

-We have to talk.

-Of course we do.

995

01:
04:54,772 -- 01:04:57,650

But keep smiling because

my husband is watching.

996

01:
04:59,012 -- 01:05:01,162

He's so pleased with himself.

997

01:
05:01,292 -- 01:05:06,571

He'sjust closed a new deal.

Charter business. He'll fly Arabs to Mecca.

998

01:
05:06,692 -- 01:05:09,889

-I'm going to be arrested.

-The planes are from Israel.

999

01:
05:10,052 -- 01:05:11,371

By the police.

1000

01:
05:11,572 -- 01:05:13,722

He'll make a Goddamn fortune.

1001

01:
05:13,892 -- 01:05:15,723

My lawyer, if you can call him that--

1002

01:
05:15,812 -- 01:05:19,964

He called me a whore today!

Right in front of the servants!

1003

01:
05:21,092 -- 01:05:24,323

Really! How does he expect me

to run the house...

1004

01:
05:24,532 -- 01:05:27,490

if he humiliates me in front of the help?

1005

01:
05:27,972 -- 01:05:29,724

You have a point.

1006

01:
05:31,532 -- 01:05:34,808

I'm sorry. What are we talking about?

1007

01:
05:36,292 -- 01:05:39,329

The other guy's come forward.

Says I was driving.

1008

01:
05:39,692 -- 01:05:41,762

I'm going to be arrested tomorrow.

1009

01:
05:41,892 -- 01:05:45,567

I need to know from you

what you want me to say.

1010

01:
05:46,732 -- 01:05:49,883

Maria, darling, I need your advice

about something.

1011

01:
05:49,972 -- 01:05:52,645

Sherman, have you met Aubrey Buffing?

1012

01:
05:55,052 -- 01:05:56,770

Like so many of us...

1013

01:
05:56,972 -- 01:06:02,444

until Death itself takes us into his arms

and burns us with the fever of living...

1014

01:
06:02,732 -- 01:06:06,691

dragging us like Don Juan

into the bonfires of hell!

1015

01:
06:07,172 -- 01:06:09,891

The voice of the ghost ringing in our ears!

1016

01:
06:10,132 -- 01:06:11,565

"Repent!"

1017

01:
06:26,852 -- 01:06:30,925

Careful. My kid got Styrofoam sh*t

back there and it sticks to your clothes.

1018

01:
06:31,012 -- 01:06:32,923

-How do you feel?

-Top notch.

1019

01:
06:33,092 -- 01:06:34,810

This is just a formality, right?

1020

01:
06:34,892 -- 01:06:36,803

No problem. They promised me.

1021

01:
06:37,772 -- 01:06:41,924

I told Maria. I saw her last night.

In case we need her.

1022

01:
06:42,092 -- 01:06:44,970

That explains it.

She left the country this morning.

1023

01:
06:45,172 -- 01:06:48,164

You know an Italian painter

named Filippo Chirazzi?

1024

01:
06:49,892 -- 01:06:52,611

I think your girlfriend's

got a new boyfriend.

1025

01:
06:52,932 -- 01:06:55,492

It won't be so bad. This is routine.

1026

01:
06:55,732 -- 01:06:58,405

Andruitti promised we'll be in

and out of there.

1027

01:
06:58,972 -- 01:07:00,928

No one will ever know what happened.

1028

01:
07:01,012 -- 01:07:02,047

Cuff him.

1029

01:
07:02,132 -- 01:07:03,247

What?

1030

01:
07:03,892 -- 01:07:06,486

The zone captain will be there.

And the press.

1031

01:
07:06,692 -- 01:07:09,081

What the f***? What press?

1032

01:
07:09,412 -- 01:07:11,482

Ray promised no bullshit.

1033

01:
07:11,692 -- 01:07:14,729

Weiss gave the order this morning.

1034

01:
07:16,012 -- 01:07:18,082

Somebody's going to pay for this.

1035

01:
07:24,812 -- 01:07:27,201

I made sure I was there that day.

1036

01:
07:27,652 -- 01:07:29,882

That day would be full of revelations.

1037

01:
07:30,092 -- 01:07:32,322

I would meet Sherman McCoy at last.

1038

01:
07:32,612 -- 01:07:34,443

When he finally appeared...

1039

01:
07:35,892 -- 01:07:38,360

Well, excuse me, what the hell...?

1040

01:
07:38,852 -- 01:07:41,730

Who were these people?

What were they doing here?

1041

01:
07:41,892 -- 01:07:43,245

This was my story!

1042

01:
07:43,332 -- 01:07:46,529

Sherman McCoy was my baby!

My creation!

1043

01:
07:58,412 -- 01:08:01,006

Look at these punks.

Get out of here!

1044

01:
08:01,132 -- 01:08:02,724

Why'd you hit that kid?

1045

01:
08:03,012 -- 01:08:05,128

Put the cuffs on him.

1046

01:
08:07,852 -- 01:08:09,205

I'm going to jail, aren't I?

1047

01:
08:09,292 -- 01:08:12,921

Don't say a word. Don't hide your head.

1048

01:
08:13,132 -- 01:08:15,202

You don't even know they're there.

1049

01:
08:15,492 -- 01:08:17,448

I'm going to jail.

1050

01:
08:28,452 -- 01:08:31,330

What do you have

to say for yourself?

1051

01:
08:31,532 -- 01:08:33,204

You been arrested before?

1052

01:
08:33,412 -- 01:08:35,642

Where's your wife?

1053

01:
08:35,852 -- 01:08:39,481

You ran down Mrs. Lamb's son.

Have you anything to say to her?

1054

01:
08:39,652 -- 01:08:42,689

Here! Let me take your picture, shithead!

1055

01:
08:42,892 -- 01:08:45,645

How do you like this cocktail party?

1056

01:
08:48,812 -- 01:08:50,450

Hello, Mr. McCoy.

1057

01:
08:50,692 -- 01:08:53,729

Don't make any statements!

Don't talk to anybody!

1058

01:
08:53,932 -- 01:08:56,002

I'll meet you at the arraignment.

1059

01:
10:01,092 -- 01:10:03,811

Quiet! You people sit down!

1060

01:
10:04,132 -- 01:10:05,406

Shut up!

1061

01:
10:19,492 -- 01:10:20,891

Mr. McCoy...

1062

01:
10:22,612 -- 01:10:26,446

do you know the charges

that have been brought against you?

1063

01:
10:27,812 -- 01:10:28,767

What?

1064

01:
10:31,172 -- 01:10:33,640

How do you plead to the charges?

1065

01:
10:36,452 -- 01:10:37,771

I'm sorry.

1066

01:
10:39,892 -- 01:10:42,565

I am very sorry. Please forgive me.
