The Bonfire of the Vanities Page #13

But they always come back to the sh*t.

1167

01:
19:23,972 -- 01:19:26,042

I always thought you were dull.

1168

01:
19:31,532 -- 01:19:32,965

Congratulations.

1169

01:
19:33,652 -- 01:19:36,530

Has anybody talked to you

about television?

1170

01:
19:36,772 -- 01:19:39,889

We'd have to play down the racial thing.

1171

01:
19:40,012 -- 01:19:42,287

Kind of make you more sympathetic.

1172

01:
19:42,692 -- 01:19:47,208

I know I'm first, but I wanted to be there

before the corpse was cold.

1173

01:
19:47,812 -- 01:19:49,211

$200,000.

1174

01:
19:49,292 -- 01:19:51,681

-I beg your pardon?

-F*** my pardon.

1175

01:
19:51,972 -- 01:19:54,281

I'll suck your dick for the rights. $250,000.

1176

01:
19:54,372 -- 01:19:58,411

A book, a mini-series. $500,000.

Go to jail, double.

1177

01:
19:58,692 -- 01:20:01,570

-Is that a great blow job or what?

-Excuse me!

1178

01:
20:07,972 -- 01:20:10,281

Didn't mean anything to interrupt anything.

1179

01:
20:10,372 -- 01:20:12,124

Gene asked me to come by.

1180

01:
20:13,252 -- 01:20:15,402

I haven't talked with anyone yet.

1181

01:
20:15,532 -- 01:20:17,727

If there's anything we can do...

1182

01:
20:19,492 -- 01:20:21,722

I'll be back to work in a day or two.

1183

01:
20:21,892 -- 01:20:25,726

That won't be necessary.

That's what I was sent to...

1184

01:
20:25,972 -- 01:20:27,405

You don't have to.

1185

01:
20:28,132 -- 01:20:30,851

I mean, you shouldn't come down.

1186

01:
20:31,972 -- 01:20:34,122

They don't want you to come down.

1187

01:
20:35,172 -- 01:20:36,924

Sherman, I'm sorry.

1188

01:
20:37,252 -- 01:20:40,369

Between this and the way you handled

the Giscard deal...

1189

01:
20:40,452 -- 01:20:43,489

-I mean, $600,000,000 is a--

-This is final?

1190

01:
20:43,732 -- 01:20:45,927

Well, the firm feels that...

1191

01:
20:47,092 -- 01:20:48,445

I'm sorry.

1192

01:
21:07,372 -- 01:21:09,840

Judy, could we...

What's going on?

1193

01:
21:09,932 -- 01:21:14,562

This dinner party was planned weeks ago,

if you bothered to check your calendar.

1194

01:
21:16,372 -- 01:21:18,090

Under the circumstances--

1195

01:
21:18,172 -- 01:21:21,403

I know the whole story.

I saw it on television.

1196

01:
21:23,172 -- 01:21:25,561

I'm sorry. Judy, I am.

1197

01:
21:26,092 -- 01:21:29,801

You betrayed us. Me. Campbell.

Even yourself.

1198

01:
21:30,292 -- 01:21:34,604

But I'm chairing the museum benefit

thanks to your escapades.

1199

01:
21:35,092 -- 01:21:37,128

What can I say? Life goes on.

1200

01:
21:37,412 -- 01:21:40,563

I'll make the best

of an appalling situation.

1201

01:
21:40,932 -- 01:21:43,002

Can you forgive me?

1202

01:
21:46,132 -- 01:21:50,444

I suppose I can forgive anything,

but not television.

1203

01:
21:52,172 -- 01:21:53,571

I'm leaving you.

1204

01:
21:56,292 -- 01:21:57,725

After the party.

1205

01:
21:58,532 -- 01:22:01,251

Now if you will excuse me,

we have guests.

1206

01:
22:04,972 -- 01:22:08,806

I'm terribly sorry to bother you.

Is this a bad time?

1207

01:
22:10,892 -- 01:22:11,881

No.

1208

01:
22:12,932 -- 01:22:14,445

The more the merrier.

1209

01:
22:14,572 -- 01:22:17,245

I've been in touch with the co-op board.

1210

01:
22:17,452 -- 01:22:20,205

We want you to know

you have our support.

1211

01:
22:20,292 -- 01:22:21,771

Oh, thank you!

1212

01:
22:22,052 -- 01:22:23,963

You know, I wanted to die...

1213

01:
22:24,172 -- 01:22:27,403

with everybody calling my name

in that courtroom.

1214

01:
22:27,652 -- 01:22:29,529

Of course. It's hard to believe.

1215

01:
22:29,612 -- 01:22:32,809

And then I thought, "I have a gun."

1216

01:
22:34,372 -- 01:22:36,283

A 12-gauge, pump action.

1217

01:
22:36,532 -- 01:22:38,488

We've known each other a long time.

1218

01:
22:38,572 -- 01:22:41,644

We went to Buckley together.

My father knew your father.

1219

01:
22:41,732 -- 01:22:44,485

I speak as a friend and also for the board.

1220

01:
22:44,692 -- 01:22:46,922

How do I get the barrels into my mouth?

1221

01:
22:47,012 -- 01:22:49,606

How am I going to pull the trigger?

1222

01:
22:49,772 -- 01:22:52,969

I read about a man who took off his shoe...

1223

01:
22:53,252 -- 01:22:55,561

and pulled the trigger with his toe.

1224

01:
22:57,772 -- 01:23:00,366

This can't be a comfortable situation

for you.

1225

01:
23:03,412 -- 01:23:04,606

Is that a gun?

1226

01:
23:07,532 -- 01:23:09,170

Where would I do it?

1227

01:
23:09,772 -- 01:23:11,842

And who would find me?

1228

01:
23:12,172 -- 01:23:13,764

Yes, exactly.

1229

01:
23:14,052 -- 01:23:15,804

Have you considered...

1230

01:
23:16,772 -- 01:23:18,842

changing residence for a while?

1231

01:
23:21,932 -- 01:23:23,490

You want me to leave?

1232

01:
23:26,852 -- 01:23:28,365

This is my home.

1233

01:
23:29,332 -- 01:23:33,450

I have no safe place to go.

People are threatening my life.

1234

01:
23:33,892 -- 01:23:35,450

I must protect myself.

1235

01:
23:37,532 -- 01:23:42,162

People are demonstrating out front.

Black people with basketballs.

1236

01:
23:42,332 -- 01:23:44,402

You're putting everyone at risk!

1237

01:
23:44,492 -- 01:23:47,086

It's not your fault. But that's the fact.

1238

01:
23:47,372 -- 01:23:49,761

If you're so scared, you move out.

1239

01:
23:50,692 -- 01:23:51,647

Please.

1240

01:
23:52,172 -- 01:23:53,321

Start...

1241

01:
23:54,292 -- 01:23:56,601

by moving out of my apartment now.

1242

01:
23:56,772 -- 01:23:58,683

I came here in good faith.

1243

01:
23:59,492 -- 01:24:00,607

Now, out!

1244

01:
24:02,572 -- 01:24:05,086

You were a fat blowhard at Buckley...

1245

01:
24:05,252 -- 01:24:07,288

and you're a fat blowhard now!

1246

01:
24:07,372 -- 01:24:10,409

I'll enforce the provision

on unacceptable situations.

1247

01:
24:10,692 -- 01:24:14,844

Another word and you'll have

an unacceptable situation up your ass!

1248

01:
24:16,292 -- 01:24:17,566

March!

1249

01:
24:23,572 -- 01:24:26,564

That goes for the rest of you too! Out!

1250

01:
24:36,772 -- 01:24:38,524

I said, "Get out!"

1251

01:
24:41,932 -- 01:24:44,207

Parasites! Everybody out!

1252

01:
24:44,492 -- 01:24:47,689

Out of my house! Out of my apartment!

1253

01:
24:50,212 -- 01:24:51,531

Out of my life!

1254

01:
24:56,612 -- 01:24:59,001

Sherman McCoy is dead!

1255

01:
24:59,372 -- 01:25:02,921

Sherman McCoy of Park Avenue

and Wall Street...

1256

01:
25:04,932 -- 01:25:09,210

will never be Sherman McCoy again!

1257

01:
25:14,732 -- 01:25:19,248

Meanwhile,just a few blocks away,

I was being praised and congratulated.

1258

01:
25:19,652 -- 01:25:22,530

It should have been

a triumphant yours truly...

1259

01:
25:22,892 -- 01:25:24,245

but it wasn't.

1260

01:
25:24,932 -- 01:25:28,447

My encounter with the real

Sherman McCoy was spoiling everything.

1261

01:
25:29,092 -- 01:25:30,684

Truth has a way of doing that.

1262

01:
25:30,772 -- 01:25:32,285

Daddy, dinner.
