The Color of Money Page #5

Huh!

# Ow-ooo ##

Ow!

[Applause]

Woo!

Not bad, my man,

not bad.

When you leaving town?

Now, right?

You don't want

to play me again?

Don't kill me.

That boy's hot.

Did you

see me tonight?

Hey!

What?

I m...

I made money.

You lost money.

The town

is dead for you.

Do I not speak your native language?

What is the matter?

You give me this stick

and tell me to lay low.

The goddamn thing, I lay it down

and it jumps up at me!

You don't deserve

this stick.

I don't deserve this?

You don't deserve

this stick.

Alls you do

is you sit in there.

You talk.

You tell me things.

I played.

I'm a f***in' pool player.

You know something?

I'm a f***in' animal!

Ow-ooo!

Animal!

Vincent,

get in the car.

This is embarrassing.

You're acting

like some girl...

who got felt up

in a drive-in.

It looks terrible.

Tough sh*t.

How much did you

take off of Moselle?

I heard 100.

Yeah. 150.

Walk into a shoe store

with 150 bucks...

you leave with one shoe.

We were working

on 5,000.

Come on.

Get in. It's cold.

Vincent.

You got me

talking to myself.

Half of me says

I got a hold of...

the best thing

I ever seen.

Half of me says

it ain't worth it.

Either I don't

teach you right...

or you don't listen...

or you listen,

but you don't hear.

What was

that voodoo stuff?

That wasn't pool.

That was a circus.

You dropped your pants.

You want to get down?

Good.

You and Gypsy Rose Lee.

I can always

go back to whiskey.

It's been

very good to me.

You're sitting in it,

and I'm wearing it...

but it's tired.

You know, it's just

kind of run on.

You appear on the scene,

I'm jumping again.

You remind me that...

that money won...

is twice as sweet

as money earned.

the screws put on me.

It was over for me...

before it really

got started.

But I'm hungry again...

and you bled that

back into me.

You got to have

two things to win.

You got to have brains...

and you got to

have balls.

You've got

too much of one...

and not enough

of the other.

I mean,

I don't know.

Tell me what

you want to do.

Give me a clue.

Uh...

Um, yeah.

I'll try.

I'll really try,

you know?

Let's go for it.

You know, Eddie,

I mean, uh...

it's just tough

for me to lay down.

You know,

it's just, uh...

I get in there,

and it's just tough.

It's just, uh,

it's just tough to lay down...

but i'll try. Okay?

Tough to lay down,

huh?

Well, roll over,

sweetheart.

Give me.

What?

is 90 bucks.

I wake you up?

Well, do you

want to hang up?

Are you still

pissed off at me?

Well, if you were, uh,

I'd understand.

I don't know.

Uh, I'm having nightmares,

sweats, and everything.

What kind of rent

are you paying?

I said what kind of rent

do you pay?

Well, listen.

Ahem.

After the Bahamas...

maybe you could

move in with me...

just for practise.

What do you mean?

No, nothing's going on.

What are you, a shrink?

I miss you.

I say nice things to you.

Fine.

A couple of curve balls

every now and then.

They're young.

They're kids.

No, no. You're perfect.

I love this. You should have seen

Eddie play last night.

Terrific.

Are we going to make

some money today?

We'll make some money.

Definitely.

I'm a wild man today.

Did you ever hear

of a hustle...

called two brothers

and a stranger?

That's the guy

in the Bible...

with the many-coloured

coats, right?

I'm joking, you guys.

Come on.

Did I get through

to you?

I'll run it by you

another way.

If you'd have

kicked ass...

in any place

but Chalkies...

Atlantic City would

be dead for us.

The guys never

leave the street.

Otherwise, it would

be all around.

Let me tell you

something.

Last night...

people never talked to me...

like that before.

You really

talked to me.

I want you to know

I appreciate it.

I want to thank you

for everything. Uh...

Ahem.

Don't worry, kid.

Don't worry.

Two brothers

and a stranger.

You got two guys

who go into a bar, see?

Give me two hours.

They'll be building me

a trophy wall.

That kid gets to

have all the fun.

Lock and load.

All right.

Who's next here?

You guys want to play?

No. Anybody? Want to play?

Forget it.

Spot you

the break here.

Come on, I'll spot you

the break.

I want

the 7-ball, too.

How about the 8?

I'll give you the 8.

What do you want?

You up? Let's go.

Ha ha ha!

Ha ha ha!

Why don't you

keep it down?

What did I say?

I coughed.

Well, ya ga ga ga.

Stop it, Eddie.

Do you mind?

Excuse me?

It's a money game

here, guy.

Ha ha!

Big money game.

Right. So take your hands

off the girl...

and let us play, okay?

What do you care

where I put my hand?

Gramps, put your teeth in,

get your hands off your daughter

and pay attention.

You might learn

something today.

I'll change my teeth.

You change your goddamn diapers.

Hey, we've got

a game going here.

Really? What are you

playing for?

What's it to you?

What are you playing for?

You want to win?

I'll bet 500 bucks

on this guy here.

Huh?

I think

you're a choker.

says you choke.

Why don't you

take a walk?

Anybody want to bet?

What are you

starting trouble for?

- I'm going to leave.

- Jerk.

Want to go

for 1,000?

[Helicopter]

[Siren]

I know. I mean...

you'd think

he would have seen it.

Oh, my God,

he got suckered...

into that so easy.

Unbelievable.

Unbelievable.

What's up?

What do you think?

Get in the car.

Get away from me.

What the hell

is the matter with you?

Did you have

a good time?

I'm disappointed,

frankly.

Frankly, your ass!

I seen you.

Don't give me that.

Seen what?

Screw this.

I don't need this. I'm gone.

I'm going home.

Come on.

- The hell you are.

- The hell I am?

You're going home

alone, man.

Is it you

and Eddie now?

Getting felt up

by Eddie?

Come on.

You go in that place,

you play your part.

I put my hands on her.

It's acting.

Your hands were

all over her!

It's acting!

Hey, look, Vincent...

when you go

into movies...

and you see

people kissing...

do you think

they go home together?

They're professionals.

We're trying

to be professionals.

Okay, you guys,

it was just a little rough.

I ain't used

to that, Carmen.

I don't know

about this.

Vincent the kid, huh?

You're going to be

one of the greats, kiddo.

I got a good feeling

about this.
