Hollywood. 1947.

The Brown Derby


HITCHCOCK
I'll catch the rushes after we have lunch.

TALLULAH
Don't be droll. I mean that table there.

HITCHCOCK
Where?

TALLULAH
Don't look, Dahling. It's Bette-fucking-Davis and
she's wearing a goddam pizza box on her head!

HITCHCOCK
Now, Tallulah -

TALLULAH
Those eyes of hers should be put out. Doesn't it say that
in the Bible, Dahling? 'If her eye offends me, put it out.'?

HITCHOCK
I'm not sure it says exactly that.

TALLULAH
Don't look, Dahling! She's seen us! I'm telling you it's those eyes!




Elsewhere in the restaurant,
another storm is brewing!
