[00:14.490] Okay, this is the picture
[00:15.597] Johnny's been hurt
[00:16.622] He's been hurt bad
[00:17.356][Woman]
[00:17.544] Look, we can't leave him here, we can't
[00:18.543] Look, he's in a pool of blood
[00:19.850] He's gonna die, I know it
[00:21.847][Frankie]
[00:22.037] We've gotta leave him here, honey
[00:22.444] We gotta. He won't talk, I promise you that!
[00:22.841] Will you Johnny?
[00:24.178][Woman]
[00:24.511] Frankie, I don't care whether he talks or not
[00:24.735] I just can't leave him like this
[00:26.623][Johnny]
[00:27.833] Listen. Leave me here
[00:28.112] I... I... I can ... I can ... handle it
[00:30.098][Woman]
[00:30.520] Oh, no, Johnny, no...
[00:32.001][Frankie]
[00:34.327] The cops are outside
[00:35.079] Luke's in the car
[00:36.251] Come on, let's get the hell outta this joint
[00:37.724][Woman]
[00:37.958] Frankie, when they get here we're gonna be dead
[00:39.169] I know we are!
[00:39.597] We don't have a gun!
[00:40.868][Frankie]
[00:41.233] Listen. We got three million... Listen Spud
[00:42.601] We got three million in the car, here
[00:42.978] We can't look after him, I'll send the bird to his mother
[00:45.433] Come on, let's just get out of this place, we can do it!
[00:45.934][Woman]
[00:48.016] Oh no, Johnny, no...
[00:50.007] She came, as in the book, Mickey Spillane
[00:56.399] That Saturday night dark masquerade
[01:00.599] Had filled his friend with lead, the same, sweetheart
[01:05.930] But then, as nothing happens quite the same
[01:12.842] Investigation is the game
[01:17.182] He had to check her story right away
[01:22.424] He dead
[01:23.786] Sam Space his buddy Archer first to go he got it
[01:26.203] (He dead)
[01:27.692] She spelt it out, how could they know the "Fatman" got it
[01:30.184] (He dead)
[01:31.894] Her sister didn't really live at all-confusion
[01:35.037] (He dead)
[01:35.827] His chase led to the "Fatman", to face the friends of Mr. Cairo
[01:39.868][Woman]
[01:41.786] Hey, there's a really terrific dress shop
[01:43.128] Can we stop this raid while I buy a new gown?
[01:45.198][Frankie]
[01:46.000] I'll buy you the whole factory, sweetheart
[01:47.517] Don't worry
[01:56.226] That night, the double crosser got it right
[02:02.902] Pretending he was really dim
[02:07.288] He slipped to Sam a double gin "Mickey Finn"
[02:12.630] He woke, the boys had gone but not his gun
[02:19.633] They'd left a note to lead him on
[02:23.131] The chase to find the Maltese Falcon
[02:29.125] You bet
[02:34.404] Early thirties gangster movies
[02:35.937] Set to spellbind population
[02:37.990] From Chicago to Hong Kong
[02:39.757] Via Istanbul the Talking Tong
[02:42.199] Dirty rats thru' prohibition
[02:44.234] Money flowed thru gangsterism
[02:46.291] Acting out his fantasy
[02:48.198] In Hollywoods vicinity
[02:50.528] Best part for the best rendition
[02:52.362] Al Capone he sent to prison
[02:54.607] Citizen Kane came fast and quickly
[02:56.686] Conquerin' old New York City
[02:58.744] Poking fun at superstition
[03:00.855] Media became television
[03:02.952] Give me Cagney any day
[03:05.050] Or Jimmy Stewart for President
[03:07.076] Or Edward G. and all those guys
[03:09.184] Who always shoot between the eyes
[03:13.575] Between the eyes
[03:17.540] Between the eyes
[03:20.970][Kasper]
[03:32.811] Ha ha ha ha!
[03:34.880] Well done Mr. Cairo
[03:36.549] And what do you have to say about that my friend?
[03:38.836][Spade]
[03:40.280] All right. So you've got me in it
[03:41.886] What about her?
[03:42.913][Brigid]
[03:43.480] Don't worry about me, I'm okay
[03:45.367][Kasper]
[03:45.966] Very magnanimous Sir
[03:47.149] Very magnanimous indeed
[03:48.639] Ha ha ha ha ha
[03:49.865][Mr. Cairo]
[03:50.519] You mean...
[03:51.409] You won't make us an offer we...
[03:53.297] We can't refuse?
[03:54.700] Father, love, do you work, do you work for Mother
[03:59.080] Chances could call, and accept that, be no other
[04:03.227] Science as it might, disappear correspond with color
[04:07.410] Chance is the fruit, will outlive, what is now the brother
[04:11.373] Call for total wealth to distribute like a picture
[04:15.009] In black and white, give it joy, give it, let it hit you
[04:19.544] Spoil our existence by extreme gift to population
[04:23.570] Father, love, do you work, do you work for Mother
[04:28.256] Tell me straight be the Godfather be no other
[04:32.369] Media Kings give us now give us total movie
[04:36.281] Straight right now, give it clear, give us total movie
[04:40.305] Now being here, being now, being here believing
[05:13.338][Man]
[05:17.389] I don't know which words to put in there sweetheart
[05:19.344] You know, I can't do it
[05:21.402] Pretty kind of useless, though, don't you think so Mary?
[05:32.757][Man]
[05:54.481] Come with me to the far lands of Baghdad
[05:56.651][Woman]
[05:57.156] Oh, if only I could
[05:58.574] That's what I want more than anything in the world but...
[06:00.944] It could never be
[06:03.199][Man]
[06:03.868] Of course it can
[06:04.878][Woman]
[06:05.258] But my father would find us wherever we went
[06:07.991] Yes, he has forbidden me to... to even speak to you
[06:11.277] If he finds me now...
[06:12.535] I don't know what he'd do
[06:14.598][Man]
[06:15.546] But he doesn't know that I'm... I'm a prince
[06:18.481] Before, I was the thief of Baghdad, now...
[06:21.702][Woman]
[06:21.885] It doesn't matter
[06:23.001][Man]
[06:23.632] Then follow me, darling
[06:26.341] Follow me now to the ends of the Earth
[06:50.048] One on one to talk to you
[06:53.484] Like film stars they get close to you
[06:56.575] You've mirrored his appeal
[06:59.263] He wants you so, he wants to be beside you
[07:05.710] Then you pass by
[07:11.064] Giving him the other side of you
[07:17.185] Like the mystics do
[07:20.007] So that every time he moves
[07:24.561] He moves for you
[07:38.062] Soul and light can always see
[07:41.473] The meeting of true love and she
[07:44.406] This silent night and I
[07:48.441] I guess a lonely mind might see
[07:53.044] I've seen love on the screen
[07:58.192] I've seen a screen goddess and me
[08:04.295] Ooooooooh
[08:08.339] How often this, how often this
[08:14.167] The power of you
[08:18.157] And so, I must confess
[08:23.327] Whatever I see
[08:25.746] I'm meant to be there with you
[08:34.036] With you
[09:55.755] Silent golden movies, talkies, technicolor, long ago
[10:02.125] My younger ways stand clearer
[10:05.496] Clearer than my footprints
[10:08.639] Stardom greats I've followed closely
[10:11.848] Closer than the nearest heartbeat
[10:15.003] Longer that expected, there were great
[10:20.613] Oh love oh love, just to see them
[10:27.468] Acting on the silver screen, oh my
[10:32.422] Clark Gable, Fairbanks, Maureen O'Sullivan
[10:38.792] Fantasy would fill my life and I
[10:43.019] Love fantasy so much
[10:46.268] Did you see in the morning light
[10:49.912] I really talked, yes I did, to Gods early dawning light
[10:55.825] And I was privileged to be
[10:58.447] As I am to this day, to be with you
[11:03.020] To be with you, to be with you
[11:08.733] To be with you, to be with you
[11:15.970][Mr. Cairo]
[11:22.777] Listen. I have arranged this display for...
[11:25.727] For all of you people to...
[11:26.987] To come here this evening and I...
[11:28.815] I know you have been searched, but, what you...
[11:32.121] You don't realize is...
[11:33.625] Is that in the back of the Maltese Falcon, I have it...
[11:39.705]
