Every Movie’s a Circus

I read one of your stories
Wasn't it Scribner's some magazine
Title something with windows

It was "Blind Windows"
If that's what you mean

That's right i really liked it

I'm all warm and runny inside

Let me pitch it to Sheldrake

I may be broke but I still have my pride

Come on get off your high horse
Writers with pride don't live in LA silence
Exile and cunning
Those are the only cards you can play

Sheldrake won't buy this story
He likes trash with fairy lights
Jesus, think of the effort
Trying to get him to heighten his sights

Every movie's a circus
Can't we discuss this
Schwab's Thursday night?

What for? Nothing will happen
I gotta go now fight the good fight

What's the rush?

See those gorillas?

Yes, what about them?

Do me a terrific favor
Keep them amused while I escape

If you're at Schwab's on Thursday

Done look, those guys are after my car
If I lose that in this town
It's like having my legs cut off

Let's duck into the soundstage

Come on, Gillis, give us the keys

Shhh! Please be quiet
Mr deMille is shooting right over there

So what?

He's working on "Samson and Delilah"
- they're doing a red-hot
Scene with Hedy Lamarr you want
To stay and watch?

No

Relax, we got five minutes
