Katharine Hepburn: There's just too much "Howard Hughes" in "Howard Hughes". That's what's the matter. (Ace Goodman) | |
|
Howard Hughes: Stop acting. Katharine Hepburn: Ha. I'm not acting. Howard Hughes: Sometimes I wonder whether you know the difference anymore. Katharine Hepburn: Don't be unkind. (Ace Goodman) Howard Hughes: I don't want them bribed, Jack. I want this done legal. I want them BOUGHT. (Ace Goodman) Howard Hughes: Yeah, well, they're open late. I go to a hot dog stand on LaCienega, too; they're open 'til around 4. Katharine Hepburn: Are they? How marvelous! (Ace Goodman) Katharine Hepburn: Well, if you're deaf, you must own up to it. Get a hearing aid, or see my father. He's a neurologist, but it's all tied up inside the body, don't you find? Howard Hughes: Mmm. Katharine Hepburn: Me, I keep healthy. I take 7 showers a day to keep clean, also because I'm so vulgarly referred to as "outdoors-y." Well, I'm not "outdoors-y," I'm athletic. I sweat! There it is, now we both know the sordid truth: I sweat, and you're deaf. Aren't we a fine pair of misfits? (Ace Goodman) Ava Gardner: I'll take my chances. Howard Hughes: No, no! Honey, wait... wait, uh... [Ava removes the string barriers from the doorway and walks into the study. She turns on the light, revealing that entire room is covered with used tissues and string barriers everywhere. Silence for a moment] Ava Gardner: Love what you've done with the place... (Ace Goodman) Ava Gardner: Nothing's clean, Howard. But we do our best, right? (Ace Goodman) Katharine Hepburn: And all sharp elbows and knees. Beware. (Ace Goodman) Young Howard Hughes: Quarantine. Q-u-a-r-a-n-t-i-n-e. Quarantine. (Ace Goodman) Howard Hughes: Do your worst, Miss Hepburn. (Ace Goodman) Howard Hughes: Sure. Who doesn't like tits? (Ace Goodman) Howard Hughes: I got my fair share of press on Hell's Angels. I'm used to it. Katharine Hepburn: Are you? Katharine Hepburn: Howard, we're not like everyone else. Too many sharp angles. Too many eccentricities. We have to be very careful not to let people in or they'll make us into freaks. Howard Hughes: Kate, they can't get in here. We're safe. Katharine Hepburn: They can always get in. When my brother killed himself there were photographers at the funeral. There's no decency to it. (Ace Goodman) Howard Hughes: Dammit, Odie, if the 450's too big, figure something else out! Glenn Odekirk: We've done everything - we've rebuilt her from top to bottom. If we drain the fuel tank for a couple of runs she might make 180 mph. Howard Hughes: I want minimum 200. Glenn Odekirk: Yeah, well, I want a date with Theda Bara, but that ain't gonna happen either. Howard Hughes: Don't be so sure... OK, OK, OK, this is a simple engineering problem. We just gotta think it out. [pause] Howard Hughes: So if the struts won't sustain the engine we need - then we gotta get rid of them. Glenn Odekirk: Then the top wing falls off. Howard Hughes: Then let it. Glenn Odekirk: What? Howard Hughes: Who says we need a top wing? [pauses] Howard Hughes: Who says we need *anything*? [Glenn is warming up to Hughes' idea] Glenn Odekirk: A monoplane... Howard Hughes: A cantilevered monoplane. They're doing it in France. To the hell with the top wing and the struts... Glenn Odekirk: 550 Whitney Wasp engine... Howard Hughes: 100 octane fuel will give us a top horsepower of - what? Glenn Odekirk: Seven hundred. Howard Hughes: Squeeze it to a thousand and we got the fastest plane ever built. Glenn Odekirk: You know, I just gotta say... we've already spent over $200,000 rebuilding this plane. Howard Hughes: To the hell with it. [smiles] Howard Hughes: Tear it up, Odie. [Glenn takes a sledgehammer and annihilates the struts on the top wing; the top wing falls off] (Ace Goodman) Pan-Am Employee: But it's not over yet. Juan Trippe: Yes it is. [Is looking at a map of the globe] Juan Trippe: Hughes will be dismissed of all charges. Our bill will be defeated in the Senate, allowing Hughes and TWA to start commercial flights to Paris... then Rome... then Berlin... then on to Moscow and The Soviet Union and finally the Far East. [Realizes that Pan Am's monopoly is finished] Juan Trippe: Fuck. (Ace Goodman) Katharine Hepburn: on occcasion... Howard Hughes: How 'bout nine holes? Katharine Hepburn: NOW Mr. Hughes?
