Wall Street Page #4

All right, Mr. Gekko,

you got me.

Excuse me, please.

Excuse us.

Excuse me.

How wonderful to see you.

Do you have a reservation?

Table for one.

Reservations only.

We're booked for a week.

All right.

Don't touch.

Everything ready, sir.

Excuse me!

Mr. Wildman on board that plane?

Yeah.

Sh*t! My boss is going to kill me.

I was supposed to

give him this.

Where's he going?

Erie, Pennsylvania.

Thank you.

After spending the morning

at Kahn, Seidelman,

the junk bond department

where Shane Mora works,

he had lunch at Les Circus

with a group

of bean counters.

He stopped off at Morgan.

I'd say from all the sweet smiling

that Larry got himself

some nice fat financing.

Bright, but not bright enough.

Let's roll the dice

and play some monopoly.

Where will Larry land in Erie,

Pennsylvania?

Jesus Christ!

He's buying Anacott Steel.

When the market opens tomorrow,

I want you to buy

You hear me?

Start buying

Take it up to $50.

When it reaches 50,

give a taste

to your friends,

Then call

The Wall Street Chronicle,

extension 1605.

Tell the man,

"Blue Horseshoe

loves Anacott Steel."

You got that?

The Wall Street Chronicle.

Congratulations,

Buddy, you scored.

Talk at you.

All right.

Start buying Anacott Steel

across the board.

Use the offshore accounts...

and keep it quiet.

Frank, 10,000 ANC at 46.

Let me know how the options

open, O. K?

Thank you.

Jack, sign them!

How... How is

Anacott Steel?

I'll sell you 2,000.

That's not what I said.

I said 20,000 shares.

Anacott priced at six.

What do you...

And a quarter, 8,0001/4.

I'll take it.

What do you want?

Yeah, I know how it is.

This is what I'm saying,

we have important financial news,

Mr. Earlich,

that happens to concern

your future.

You could benefit...

What the hell's going on?

Anacott Steel,

put your best customers in it.

Lou, I got a sure thing...

Anacott Steel.

No such thing,

except death and taxes.

Not a good company anymore,

no fundamentals.

What's going on, Bud.

You know something?

Remember,

there are no short cuts, son.

Quick-buck artists come and go

with every bull market.

The steady players make it through

the bear markets.

You're a part

of something here.

The money

you make for people

creates science

and research jobs.

You're right, Lou,

but you've got to

reach the big time,

then you can

do good things.

You can't get

a little pregnant.

It's a winner. Buy it.

Then we'll kamikaze

over to Nell's

and chase some

cotton underwear.

I know this bimbette

that's gorgeous.

Hold on.

Play some tennis Saturday?

I'm going fishing in Canada,

really big client.

Take Anacott.

Light snack, but good.

Sharking your way up.

My dear,

you've got to diversify.

I've got

a sure thing...

Anacott Steel.

I just heard the most

lovely two words.

Blue Horseshoe

loves Anacott Steel.

Anacott Steel?

Right.

Looks like Anacott Steel's

the play.

Check the arbs.

Looks like it's

being accumulated.

We've got to

position it.

Yeah, Lou,

Anacott, high buy.

Yeah. Take it and bid it.

If I'm right,

eighths and quarters won't matter.

This is really special... Anacott.

Make the tape.

Bet the ranch.

Buy 100,000 shares.

Wildman's...

It's on zoom.

If it hits 75,

we could clean 24 mill.

First lesson...

Don't get emotional about stock,

clouds the judgment.

... which closed

at 511/8,

up 51/8 from yesterday's close

on heavy trading.

Can I help you?

I'm Bud Fox.

I have some papers

for Mr. Gekko.

Come in.

Thank you.

I'm sorry about this,

Mr. Gekko.

It's all right.

It's O.K.

All right.

You want to wait here?

Problems?

There's no problem.

Bud Fox, my wife Kate.

A pleasure.

You came from the city?

Yes, ma'am.

Long drive.

You want a drink?

Yeah, you want a drink?

If you'd rather not...

Have a drink,

meet everyone.

It's a good idea.

That's Sam Ruspoli, Carmen Winters,

Stone Livingston.

This is Bud Fox.

His illustrious

wife Muffie,

Candice Rogers,

Dick Brady,

Darien Taylor,

all old friends.

Hi.

Hello.

Great idea, Gordon.

Good help

is hard to find,

But can he create

a dry vodka martini?

Doesn't talk back,

doesn't steal silverware,

and Dick's getting me

an exemption.

Dick.

I'm in St. Kitt's

with this new Kamali

leopard-skin bikini,

which is going to turn back the clock

on my marriage,

you know what I mean?

Call for you, sir.

Sir Lawrence Wildman.

He says it's important.

Thank you, Nyun.

Fix Mr. Livingston another martini.

This could be fun.

...all because

this Ukrainian b*tch

botched the job

on my wax.

Oh, how ghastly!

You should sue.

Larry, what a surprise.

I want to see you.

Can it wait?

I've got some people over.

This can't wait.

If you feel that way,

come on over.

Listen, can I steal him

for a minute?

Of course.

I want your opinion.

So, what do you see in this?

Purity, innocence...

A few thousand dollars

down the tubes

if you ask me.

Really?

Well, I guess

you can kiss your career

as an art appraiser

goodbye.

We paid over 400,000

for it.

You could have had a whole

beach house.

Sure you could,

in Wildwood, New Jersey.

If you sold this one,

you could have a pretty nice

penthouse on 5th,

but you wouldn't have much left

for decoration.

It's nice

if you're on mushrooms.

Boy, I thought Gordon

was a real tough businessman.

He's really

taken a bath on that.

I'd say Gordon is one of

the most astute

collectors around.

He has a great eye

and only buys the best.

Like this rug,

a Boccaro,

the finest of its kind.

The day after

he bought it,

the Saudi royal family

offered twice

what he paid.

It absolutely

makes the room.

This celadon is picked up

by these cushions

on the sofa.

That Etruscan vase

on the coffee table

is sacrilegious.

Someone might use it

as an ashtray.

I guess you're a decorator?

You got it.

Great spender of other

people's money.

Well, if you're that good,

you could do wonders

with my place.

Where is that?

Upper West Side.

Home of the exposed

brick wall

and the house plant?

It's a rental.

I'm moving to

the East Side soon.

Couple of deals

brewing with Gordon.

What about real things,

like dinner, the two of us,

next Friday,

Cafe Santa Domingo?

What if I have a previous

engagement?

You break it.

There you go again,

Darien,

talking with strange men.

Sam, do you know Bud Fox?

Sam's in banking.

Works for Gordon.

Nice meeting you.

Are you staying for dinner?

No. I've got to work.

Ah, the bell.

Excuse me.

Call me next week

for an estimate.

Larry, how have you been?

Just fine.

Traveling actually.

Yes? Can I get you a drink?

Larry!

Excuse me.

Sir Larry.

How are you?

God damn,

you look great.

Gordon.

So you want to talk?

I'll be heading back,

Mr. Gekko.

Stick around.

This is Bud Fox.

Should we go upstairs?

Yeah.

The rarest pistol

in the world, Larry,

A.45 Luger.

Only six of them were ever

manufactured.

Congratulations.

Rarer still is your interest
