"That's The Question On
Everyone's Lips, Who Indeed"
KINOGRAPH STUDIOS
EXTRAS MUST SIGN-IN
BEFORE AUDITIONS
Listen up ! Three girls
who can dance !
The name's Miller.
Peppy Miller !
Clifton, go to the jewelry store.
Get Somthing nice for my wife.
To make it up to her.
With all your nonsense,
they don't mention our movie until page 5 !
Where are you going, Miss?
We have a picture to shoot.
"A GERMAN AFFAIR"
DRESSING ROOMS
If you want to be an actress,
you need to have something the others don't.
I have something to show you.
May I have my chair ?!
Hey, you're not Napoleon.
You're just an extra !
SOUND TES Constance Gray
in
Romeo & Juliet
Don't laugh, George !
That's the future.
If that's the future,
you can have it !
You and I belong to another era, George.
The world is talking now.
People want new faces,
talking faces.
I wish it wasn't like this, but the public
wants fresh meat and the public is never wrong.
I'm the one people come to see.
They never needed to hear me !
Make your talking movies. I'll make a great movie.
And it's not like I need you for that !
Fresh meat...
What a coincidence, I was just thinking
about you. I signed with Kinograph !
Maybe now we'll do
anorher picture together !
Toys !
I'm not a puppet, I'm an artist !
Talkies are not serious
for George Valentin
From Actor to Director-producer
The George Valentin's challenge
PEPPY MILLER
The girl you'll Love to Love
We have to talk, George
Why do you refuse to talk ?
I'm unhappy, George.
So are millions of us.
Your movie doesn't come out until tomorrow
and you're already Hollywood's new sweetheart !
How do you explain that ?
I don't know. Maybe because I talk
and the audience can hear me.
People are tired of old actors mugging
at the camera to be understood.
Out with the old, in with the new.
Make way for the young !
That's life !
I've made way for you.
STOCK MARKE CRASH
It looks like we've gone bust.
Unless the movie is a big hit...
Farewell Norma I never loved you.
Beauty Spot
PEPPY MILLER
It's over George, you have two weeks to collect
your souvenirs together and get out of the hose.
Doris
P.S you should go see Beauty Spot
Hello. I wanted to talk to you. I...
I just saw Tears of Love.
And you want a refund ?
Not too much mugging ?
No. I... I'm sorry about last night.
I didn't mean what I said...
But you were right.
Make way for the young...
It's an honor to meet you.
My father is a big fan.
OK. We're going now.
I'll call you soon.
Take me home.
I want to be alone.
PAWN SHOP
How long has it been since I
last paid you, Clifton ?
One year, sir.
You're fired.
I'm not kidding, Clifton.
You're fired.
Keep the car. And find
yourself another job.
I don't want another job.
To Night AUCTION of famed
Hollywood actor George Valentin
Congratulations ! It's all sold,
you've got nothing left !
GUARDIAN ANGEL
The new PEPPY MILLER motion picture !
Excuse me, may I
trouble you one moment ?
If only he could talk !
Look what's become of you...
You've been stupid !
You've been proud !
GET BACK HERE, YOU LOSER !!!
Oh my God ! That's
George Valentin !
I'll get my car !
I'll say one thing, he
owes his life to that dog !
Film Actor Survives Fire
We're ready. Go get Miss Miller.
He's out of danger.
He needs rest now.
He was clutching this.
It was hard to get it away from him.
You think he could rest
at my house ?
I have to be on the set at nine o'clock.
We're shooting a very important scene.
Just think of it ! SPARKLE OF LOVE,
starring George Valentin and Peppy Miller
George is a silent movie actor.
He's a nobody now.
What are you doing ?
I won't work anymore.
It's either him or me.
What I mean is, it's him AND me !
Or it's neither of us !
Hey, I'm blackmailing you !
Get it ?
All right, send him the damn screenplay.
I work for Miss Miller now.
Once again, she's looking out for you.
Beware of your pride, if I may say so sir.
Miss Miller is a good person, believe me.
CLIFTON !
BANG !
I feel so bad. I only wanted to help you,
take care of you...
If only you would let me help you,
George Valentin.
It's impossible, Peppy.
I'm washed up. No one wants to see me speak.
There is one thing we could try.
Trust me.
Perfect !
Beautiful
Would you give me just one more?
With pleasure
