Dolly Levi, a charming New York widow and matchmaker, tired of being alone, decides to get married again. The man she is interested in is one of her clients, Orazio Vandergelder, from Yonkers, a rich, thrifty middle-aged businessman, owner of a feed store. Hostile to the marriage of his niece Ermenegarda with the young Ambrogio, whose profession as a painter is synonymous with poverty for him, Orazio turns to Dolly, so that she can distance the girl from her lover. Having gone to Yonkers for this purpose, Dolly, learning that Orazio intends to go to New York to ask for the hand of the pretty milliner Irene Mallow, decides to ruin his plan. Having achieved this goal with the unwitting help of Barnaby and Cornelio (Orazio's two clerks), Dolly makes sure that the man finally notices her and asks for her hand in marriage. Converted to the idea that money is not the only purpose of life, Orazio accepts Ermenegarda's marriage to Ambrogio, while the two clerks find happiness, one in the arms of Irene, the other in those of her friend Minnie.

00:10:02Oh, did you say law? Let me tell you something. Mr
00:10:04Kemper the law is there to prevent crime we men of sense are there to prevent foolishness
00:10:08It is I and not the law that will prevent you from marrying my niece and I've already taken the necessary steps steps

00:10:46I did the best I could mr. Vanda Gelder
00:10:52Joe yes
00:10:54I've got special reasons for looking my best today. There's something a little extra you can do something a little special what?
00:11:02You know do some of those things you do to the young fellas smart me up a little bit, you know face massage
00:11:08A little perfume water. All I know is 15 cents worth like usual, mr
00:11:14Vanda Gelder and that includes everything that's decent to do to a man. Listen, Joe
00:11:17I don't want you blabbing this down at the barbershop
00:11:19But I need something extra today because I'm going to New York to call on a very refined lady named a miss Irene Malloy
00:11:25You're calling on ladies. There's none of my business. Mr. Vanda Gelder. Hold your horses, Joe
00:11:32Yes, what is it I'm in God I

00:13:06I'm 28 and 3 quarters
00:13:08Well, a man's not worth a cent till he's 40. We just pay him wages until then to make mistakes

00:13:55And listen when I come back I want to hear that you've run the place perfectly in my absence if I hear of any foolishness
00:14:00I'll discharge you both. Yes, Mr

00:14:05There are going to be some changes around here changes as you're going to have a mistress. I'm too young. Mr. Vanda Gelder

00:14:43friendless mean
00:14:46in America
00:14:47It's about as far as you can go
00:14:54Time to be doing something a little bit foolish
00:14:59Besides I need a steady housekeeper
00:15:02It takes a woman or powder than pink to joyously clean out the drain in the sink
00:15:11And it takes an angel with long golden lashes and soft Dresden fingers
00:15:18for dumping
00:15:22Yes, it takes a woman a dainty woman a sweetheart a mistress a wife
00:15:41The frail young maiden who's constantly there
00:15:46For washing and bluing and shooing the mare and it takes a female
00:15:53For setting the table and weaning the guineas eat and cleaning the stable
00:16:01Yes
00:16:03a dainty woman a sweetheart a mistress a wife
00:16:10oh, yes, it takes a woman a
00:16:13Fragile woman to bring you the sweet things in life
00:16:21And so she'll work until infinity
00:16:31Three cheers for femininity
00:16:33Three cheers for femininity
00:16:52And in the winter she'll shovel the ice and
00:16:57Lovingly set out the traps for the mice
00:17:01She's a joy and treasure for practically speaking to whom can you turn when?
00:17:08the plumbing is
00:17:10leaking
00:17:20That sweetheart that mistress that wife
00:17:30Oh, yes
00:17:34Husky woman to bring you the sweet things
00:18:01Well, well, well, well, well, good morning, mr. Vandergelder
00:18:07Mr. Hackett, mr. Tucker gentlemen
00:18:13Morning mrs. Levi
00:18:15How handsome you look today?
00:18:17You absolutely take my breath away. I mean God's upstairs crying her eyes out
00:18:22You can take it to New York now, but blow her nose face. If only Irene Malloy could see you now
00:18:27Find someplace else below and you two get back to the store. Go on
00:18:31And don't forget to put the lid on the sheep dip. I
00:18:34Don't know what's come over you lately, but you seem to be growing younger every day
00:18:39well
00:18:40Man needs careful. There's no reason why he should look old never said a true word
00:18:45Even if I never see 40
00:18:4835 again
00:18:4935 where I can see the glance that you're the sort that'll be stamping about at a hundred eating five meals a day
00:18:54Just like what's-his-name? My uncle Harry may he rest in peace. Let me see your hand. Mr.
00:18:58Then again, I'll show me your hand. Why well, I'm a judge of hands. I read hands. I use them to get things done
00:19:08Such a long lifeline
00:19:12I don't know where it goes. It runs right off your hand. They'll have to hit you over the head with a mallet
00:19:17They'll have to stifle you with a sofa pillow. You will bury us all I will
00:19:22Yeah
00:19:26Yes, and not for the benefit of this smelly horse either well, well if I had a guess I'd say you was going somewhere
00:19:38Remarkable mrs. Levi, how do you do it?
00:19:40Two and two is four. Mr. Van de Gelder with a head like yours. You should be a rich woman someday
00:19:46That's exactly what I had in mind
00:19:48Then I suggest that you go about your business and pick up I'm in God for which I'm paying you good money
00:19:53Oh speaking of business, mr
00:19:55Van de Gelder, um, I suppose you've changed your mind again and given up all idea of getting married. Is that what you suppose?
00:20:02Then suppose you listen to this mrs. Levi. I've decided I practically decided to ask Irene Malloy to be my wife
00:20:11You have yes, I have I'm going to New York and discuss it with her this very afternoon
00:20:18Well, that is just about the best news I have ever heard mr. Van de Gelder. Oh, yes, indeed
00:20:24Marvelous news. Oh dear me. Isn't it wonderful though? I mean, uh, I'm racking my brain here
00:20:28I'm trying to think of something that I've heard that it's made me happier
00:20:31But I just can't come up with a thing because this is just too wonderful. It really is
00:20:35Huh? It's all your fault
00:20:37You know, you put me into this marrying frame of mind with all your introductions and you're scheming
00:20:42A poor widow has to earn a living
00:20:44One morning I wake up and suddenly the whole house seems like an empty shell and pretty messy to
00:20:49Man needs someone to take out the garbage and Irene Malloy is just the one to do it. Oh, darling girl
00:20:56Well, I think it's perfectly wonderful. What's gonna happen in your household. Mr. Van de Gelder
00:21:00I never did like the idea of all that
00:21:03All that money of yours lying around in great piles in the bank
00:21:07So useless and motionless as my late husband f from Levi used to say money money money
00:21:12Should circulate like rainwater
00:21:14It should be flowing down among the people through little dressmakers and cabmen and restaurants
00:21:19Setting up a little business here furnishing a good time over there
00:21:22Oh, I just know that you in the future. Mrs. Van de Gelder will see that all your hard-earned wealth
00:21:28Starts flowing in and around many people's lives just flowing
00:21:32Why?
00:21:33Pouring out
00:21:34Stop saying that
00:21:35I guess there's nothing more for me to do now but wish you every happiness under the sun and say goodbye
00:21:39Mr. Van de Gelder
00:21:41Yes, well, goodbye
00:21:42And when I get back to New York, I'll just tell the other girl I had lined up for you the heiress not to wait
00:21:46What did you say?
00:21:48Oh, nothing, nothing, a word
00:21:50Heiress
00:21:51Well, just a minute. That's uh
00:21:53That's kind of unusual, isn't it, Mrs. Levi?
00:21:56Well, I haven't been wearing myself to the bone hunting up usual girls to interest you, Mr. Van de Gelder
00:22:00But now, of course, all that's too late
00:22:02You're engaged to marry Irene Malloy
00:22:04I am not engaged
00:22:05I cannot keep upsetting and disturbing the finest women in New York City unless you mean business
00:22:09Who said I don't mean business?
00:22:10Well, I hope you do because you're playing a very dangerous game, you know
00:22:13Dangerous?
00:22:14Well, of course it's dangerous
00:22:15It's called tampering with a woman's affections
00:22:17And the only way you can save yourself from that charge, Mr. Van de Gelder, is to get married to someone soon, very soon
00:22:25Don't worry
00:22:26I won't
00:22:27I'll meet you on the bench in front of Irene Malloy's hot shop at 2.30 as usual
00:22:30Never mind, you don't have to. You've already done your work
00:22:32Oh, but I wouldn't miss it for the world
00:22:34I want to be there to make sure that nothing goes wrong
00:22:37Just hand the ironing guard and take it to New York or else I'll ask you to return the fee I gave you for that
00:22:41Speaking of money
00:22:42Oh, no
00:22:43I almost forgot to tell you
00:22:44How much?
00:22:45Well, it seems that I left my return railroad ticket and all my money in my other handbag which I took to the cleaners the other day just before it burnt down
00:22:49Fifty?
00:22:50Fifty
00:22:51Twenty. Oh, bless you
00:22:52And don't you worry your handsome head about a thing, Mr. Van de Gelder
00:22:55Just keep all your thoughts on that lovely Irene Malloy
00:23:06It takes a woman to quietly plan
00:23:11To take him and change him
00:23:16To her kind
00:23:19To her kind
00:23:22To take him and change him
00:23:27To her kind
00:23:30To take him and change him
00:23:35To her kind of man
00:23:39And to gently lead him
00:23:46Where fortune can find him
00:23:51And not let him know
00:23:55That the power behind him
00:24:01Was that dainty woman
00:24:09That fragile woman
00:24:16That sweetheart
00:24:20That mistress
00:24:23That
00:24:25Why?
00:24:32Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm
00:24:45Da-da-da-da
00:24:49Da-da-da
00:24:53Ah, if he had any taste at all
00:24:57He'd have the shutters done over in green.
00:25:02Forest green shutters.
00:25:12We're running away!
00:25:13Running away?
00:25:14Will you hurry before the train gets here?
00:25:16Train?
00:25:17To New York. To get married.
00:25:18We're going to Elope.
00:25:20Elope? How can you use such an awful word?
00:25:22Wormingard.
00:25:24My, what a romantic scene.
00:25:26Oh, Mrs. Levi, please explain to Ambrose.
00:25:29I want to marry him, but not Elope.
00:25:31This doesn't concern Mrs. Levi.
00:25:33Mr. Kemper, everything concerns Dolly Levi.
00:25:35Don't listen to her. I know why you're here.
00:25:37To help you. And love needs all the help it can get.
00:25:40Get your things and climb out.
00:25:41Wait a minute. Now listen to me, both of you.
00:25:42There's no time.
00:25:43Mr. Kemper, do you mind if we climb in?
00:25:45I'm feeling an up drift in my underpants.
00:25:47Mrs. Levi.
00:25:48This is no way to Elope.
00:25:49If you follow my suggestions, not only will Horace Vandergelder give you permission to get married,
00:25:53but he will also dance at your wedding.
00:25:55Well, neither.
00:25:56Mr. Kemper.
00:25:57Yes?
00:25:58Can you dance?
00:25:59Dance?
00:26:00Yes, dance.
00:26:01I'm an artist, Mrs. Levi. I paint.
00:26:02No problem.
00:26:03Mrs. Dolly Levi, painters talk how to dance.
00:26:05Now, here's what we'll do.
00:26:06Wormingard, I'm going to take you to New York as your uncle requested.
00:26:08You see, I told you.
00:26:09You, Mr. Kemper, will stay close by.
00:26:10I will?
00:26:11Tonight you will take her to dinner at the Harmonia Gardens restaurant.
00:26:13From what?
00:26:14There's this man there, Rudolph Reisenweber.
00:26:16He knows me well.
00:26:17We'll enter you and Wormingard in the poker contest.
00:26:19The poker contest?
00:26:20The prize is a gold cup and some money, and you'll win it.
00:26:22We'll see to that.
00:26:23The cups will be won by my husband and I.
00:26:25Now, wait a minute.
00:26:26I'm surprised that you have acquaintances in a place like that, Mrs. Levi.
00:26:29Not acquaintances, Wormingard.
00:26:31Friends.
00:26:32Dear friends from days gone by.
00:26:35My late husband, Ephraim Levi, believed in life.
00:26:38Any place you could find it, wherever there were people, all kinds of people.
00:26:43And every Friday night, even when times were bad,
00:26:47every Friday night, like clockwork,
00:26:50down those stairs of the Harmonia Gardens we came, Ephraim and I.
00:26:57Not acquaintances, Wormingard.
00:26:59Friends.
00:27:00It's all very well for you, Mrs. Levi, but you're suggesting that Wormingard and I...
00:27:04Mr. Kemper, do you or do you not wish to show Horace Vandergelter that you two mean business?
00:27:08Yes.
00:27:09Well, all right, then.
00:27:10You must go to the Harmonia Gardens restaurant and say that Mrs. Levi sent you,
00:27:13and, oh, yes, well, tell Rudolph, tell Rudolph that Dolly's coming back.
00:27:19Dolly's coming back.
00:27:20Yes, and I want a table for two and a stuffed chicken for eight o'clock.
00:27:23Eight o'clock.
00:27:24Mr. Vandergelter will learn of your triumph in the poker contest,
00:27:26and everything will work out beautifully.
00:27:28But how, Mrs. Levi, how?
00:27:31How?
00:27:36Twenty-eight and three-quarter years old, and I still don't get an evening free.
00:27:40When am I going to begin to live?
00:27:43Barnaby, how much money have you got?
00:27:47Huh?
00:27:48I mean that you can get your hands on.
00:27:50About three dollars.
00:27:51Why?
00:27:52Barnaby, you and I are going to New York.
00:27:56As quickly as we can.
00:27:57Close the store?
00:27:58We'll have to, because some rotten cans of chicken mash are going to explode.
00:28:02Holy cabooses!
00:28:03How do you know?
00:28:04Because I'm going to light some candles under them.
00:28:06You are?
00:28:07They'll make such a stink that customers won't be able to come into this place for 24 hours.
00:28:10That'll get us an evening free.
00:28:12We are going to New York, Barnaby, and we are going to live.
00:28:15We're going to have a good meal.
00:28:16We're going to be in danger.
00:28:17We're going to get almost arrested, and we're going to spend all our money.
00:28:20Holy cabooses!
00:28:22And one more thing.
00:28:23We are not coming back to Yonkers until we've each kissed a girl.
00:28:28Cornelius, you can't do that.
00:28:30You don't know any girls.
00:28:33I'm 28 and three-quarters.
00:28:36I'm going to begin sometime.
00:28:38I'm going to begin sometime.
00:28:40I'm only 19 and a half.
00:28:42With me, it's not so urgent.
00:28:44May I make a suggestion, gentlemen?
00:28:47Mrs. Levi.
00:28:49I just couldn't help hearing.
00:28:51We'll be fired.
00:28:52We were only talking.
00:28:54Mr. Hackett, Mr. Tucker,
00:28:56there is nothing that makes me happier than the thought of two fine young men such as yourselves
00:29:01and drawing the company of two lovely ladies.
00:29:05What ladies?
00:29:06Where?
00:29:07In New York, Mr. Hackett, to which, unless my ears play me tricks, you are bound.
00:29:11Now, there's this millinery shop run by a charming woman.
00:29:16Irene Malloy?
00:29:17And her most attractive assistant, Miss Minnie Fay.
00:29:19Holy cabooses.
00:29:21And now that you've noted the address, I have only this to say.
00:29:24Two o'clock in the afternoon there is the ideal time for friendly conversation.
00:29:28Definitely no later than 2.30.
00:29:30And if you ever say that this was my suggestion,
00:29:33well, I should denounce you both for the terrible liars that you are.
00:29:42A millinery shop.
00:29:44Women work.
00:29:45Adventure, Barnaby.
00:29:47I'm scared.
00:29:48Living, Barnaby.
00:29:49Scared.
00:29:50Will you come, Barnaby?
00:29:51Yes, Cornelius, yes.
00:29:53The lights of Broadway.
00:29:55Elevated trains.
00:29:56The stuffed whale of Barnum's Museum.
00:29:59Stuffed whale.
00:30:00Wow.
00:30:02Women who work.
00:30:03Wow.
00:30:05All clear up here, Cornelius.
00:30:07Gonna light them all?
00:30:08Hey, Cornelius, look out.
00:30:09That bottom row.
00:30:11They're swallowed up like they're ready to bust.
00:30:14Holy cabooses.
00:30:15What a spell.
00:30:16Let's get dressed, Barnaby.
00:30:18We're going to New York.
00:30:22Out there, there's a world outside of Yonkers.
00:30:27Way out there beyond this hit town, Barnaby.
00:30:32There's a slick town, Barnaby.
00:30:36Out there, full of shine and full of sparkle.
00:30:41Close your eyes and see it.
00:30:44Listen, Barnaby.
00:30:47Listen, Barnaby.
00:30:56Put on your Sunday clothes.
00:30:58There's lots of world out there.
00:31:01Get out the brilliant teen and dime cigars.
00:31:06We're gonna find adventure in the evening air.
00:31:11Girls in white in a perfume night with the lights as bright as the stars.
00:31:16Put on your Sunday clothes.
00:31:18We're gonna ride through town.
00:31:21In one of those new horse-drawn open cars.
00:31:26We'll see the shows of Delmonico's and we'll close the town in a whirl.
00:31:31And we won't come home until we've kissed a girl.
00:31:36Put on your Sunday clothes when you feel down and out.
00:31:41Strut down the street and have your picture took.
00:31:46Dressed like a dream, your spirits seem to turn about.
00:31:51That Sunday shine is a certain sign that you feel as fine as you look.
00:31:57Beneath your parasol, the world is all a smile.
00:32:02That makes you feel brand new down to your toes.
00:32:07Get out your feathers, your platen, levers, your beads and buckles and bows.
00:32:12Oh, there's no blue Monday in your Sunday.
00:32:15No Monday in your Sunday, no.
00:32:18No Monday in your Sunday clothes.
00:32:23Put on your Sunday clothes when you feel down and out.
00:32:28Strut down the street and have your picture took.
00:32:33Dressed like a dream, your spirits seem to turn about.
00:32:38That Sunday shine is a certain sign that you feel as fine as you look.
00:32:43Beneath your parasol, the world is all a smile.
00:32:48That makes you feel brand new down to your toes.
00:32:53Get out your feathers, your platen, levers, your beads and buckles and bows.
00:32:58Oh, there's no blue Monday in your Sunday clothes.
00:33:13No.
00:33:24Put on your Sunday clothes when you feel down and out.
00:33:29Strut down the street and have your picture took.
00:33:34Dressed like a dream, your spirits seem to turn about.
00:33:39That Sunday shine is a certain sign that you feel as fine as you look.
00:33:44Beneath your hologram, the world's a simple song.
00:33:49A lovely look that makes you tilt your nose.
00:33:54Get out your slippers, your platen, levers, your beads and buckles and bows.
00:34:01Oh, there's no blue Monday in your Sunday.
00:34:09No.
00:34:12No blue Monday in your Sunday clothes.
00:34:23Ermine, God keep smiling. No man wants a little ninny.
00:34:26Ambrose, do a turn. Let me see.
00:34:29Mr. Hackle, Mr. Tucker, don't forget Irene and Minnie.
00:34:32Just forget you ever heard a word from me.
00:34:35All aboard! All aboard! All aboard!
00:34:45Put on your Sunday clothes, there's lots of world out there.
00:34:51Put on your silk robot and platen shoes.
00:34:57We're gonna find adventure in the evening air.
00:35:03To town, we're trapped to a smoky spot where the girls are hot as a fire.
00:35:09Put on your suit by Hannah, the Joan of Arc.
00:35:15We'll wear a hand-made bracelet, buttoned up.
00:35:19You wanna take New York by storm?
00:35:21We'll join the Astors at Tony Pass.
00:35:24In a trend based on positive odds.
00:35:27But we won't come home. No, we won't come home.
00:35:33No, we won't come home until we've won this war.
00:35:58Do get done with that, Minnie. The men are eyeing us for the wrong reason.
00:36:02A banana day keeps the doctor away.
00:36:03You mean an apple a day.
00:36:05Who ever heard of a doctor sleeping on an apple field?
00:36:07How are you, Miss Malloy?
00:36:08If I felt any better, I'd be positively indecent.
00:36:11You are in a mood today.
00:36:12I certainly am.
00:36:13Paper?
00:36:16Not that it's any of my business, but...
00:36:18Yes?
00:36:19Oh, but is it because, I mean...
00:36:20Minnie, I don't mind that you never finish your lunch,
00:36:23but I do mind that you never finish your sentences.
00:36:25Well, what I meant was, are you really going to?
00:36:27I mean...
00:36:28Silly girl, say it.
00:36:29Am I going to marry you or his fan together?
00:36:31Yes, I'm seriously considering it, if he asks me.
00:36:34Oh, Miss Malloy, I'd rather die on the rack than ask you such a personal question.
00:36:38But as long as we're on the subject, why would you? I mean...
00:36:40Because he's rich, Minnie.
00:36:41That's why he can rescue me from the millinery business I hate half.
00:36:44Hate half?
00:36:45A good afternoon to you, Officer Gogarty.
00:36:49And the rest of the day to you, Miss Malloy.
00:36:52Oh, Minnie, why is it that all the attractive men in New York are married?
00:36:56Plenty, Miss Malloy, plenty.
00:36:58Come on now, get going.
00:37:04Oh, the way you talk.
00:37:06It's natural to talk about men.
00:37:08I mean what you said about hating hats.
00:37:09Oh, not just hats. Particularly the women who buy them.
00:37:12You don't mean that, Irene Malloy.
00:37:14Oh, yes, I do, Minnie.
00:37:15All lady milliners are suspected of being wicked women.
00:37:18Wicked women?
00:37:19Half the time those dowagers who come into the shop come in merely to stare at me and wonder about me.
00:37:23Oh, how dare they.
00:37:24And if they were certain I was a wicked woman, they wouldn't set foot in the shop again.
00:37:27Well, good riddance. Who needs them?
00:37:29We do, unfortunately.
00:37:31So, do I go out to restaurants?
00:37:33No, it would be bad for business.
00:37:35Do I go to balls or theaters or operas?
00:37:38No, it would be bad for business.
00:37:41The only men I ever get to meet are the feather merchants who come in here to sell me things.
00:37:46Minnie, I'm sick and tired of being suspected of being a wicked woman with nothing to show for it.
00:37:52Oh, Miss Malloy.
00:37:53Why does everybody have adventures but me?
00:37:55Adventures?
00:37:56Because I have no spirit. That's why. No gumption.
00:37:59Oh, either I marry Horace Vandergelder or I'm going to burn this shop down and break out like a fire engine and find myself some excitement.
00:38:07The things you're saying today. I think they're just awful.
00:38:10Oh, aren't they, though?
00:38:12And I'm enjoying every word of it.
00:38:14What's this? A return for Miss Mortimer again?
00:38:17Same old story. She wants cherries and feathers, cherries and feathers to catch a bow, I suppose.
00:38:22If you ask me, she'd do better with a heavy veil.
00:38:25Well, I told her ribbons down the back is the thing this summer to catch a gentleman's eye.
00:38:30But she'd have none of it, cherries and feathers she wants.
00:38:33Minnie, make another hat for Miss Mortimer.
00:38:35I'm wearing this one myself.
00:38:37Oh, but you can't.
00:38:39Why not?
00:38:40Oh, because it's provocative. That's why not.
00:38:44Well, who knows that provocative isn't just what I might want to be today.
00:38:51I'll be wearing ribbons down my back this summer.
00:38:58Blue and green and streaming in the yellow sky.
00:39:05So if someone special comes my way this summer,
00:39:12he might notice me passing by.
00:39:22And so I'll try to make it easier to find me
00:39:31in the stillness of July.
00:39:37Because a breeze might stir a rainbow up behind me
00:39:45that might happen to catch the gentleman's eye.
00:39:54And he might smile and take me by the hand this summer.
00:40:06Making me recall how lovely love can be.
00:40:23And so I will proudly wear
00:40:33ribbons down my back
00:40:41shining in my hair
00:40:51that he might notice me.
00:41:08Miss Molloy, you don't love Horace Vandergilde, do you?
00:41:12Of course I don't love him.
00:41:14Then how can you... I mean...
00:41:16Minnie, look. There are two men staring at the shop.
00:41:19Two men?
00:41:20Uh-huh.
00:41:21Aren't they delicious?
00:41:23You don't think? I mean, it isn't possible.
00:41:25Yes, I do believe they mean to come in here.
00:41:27Men in the shop?
00:41:28Oh, well, we do.
00:41:29You? Well, I flirt with them, of course.
00:41:31I'll give you the short one.
00:41:32Miss Molloy, you're terrible.
00:41:33I'll get them all heated up and then we'll drop them cold.
00:41:35It'll be good practice for married life.
00:41:37Let's go into the workroom and pretty ourselves up a bit.
00:41:39If you say vamp, I'll scream.
00:41:40Vamp!
00:41:41Ah!
00:41:44I must say, I like the tall one.
00:41:48Adventure, Barnaby.
00:41:49We can still catch the train back to Yonkers.
00:41:52Oh, I feel dizzy.
00:41:54Or go see the stuffed whale at the museum.
00:41:57Women, Barnaby.
00:41:59Stuffed.
00:42:01Women.
00:42:10There's no one here. We can leave.
00:42:13I'd never forgive myself.
00:42:16Huh.
00:42:18Are you sure this is an adventure, Cornelius?
00:42:21You don't have to ask, Barnaby.
00:42:22When you're in one, you'll know it all right.
00:42:24How much money have we got left?
00:42:2640 cents for the train back, 30 cents for dinner,
00:42:28and 20 cents to see the whale.
00:42:30Well, when they come out, we'll pretend we're rich.
00:42:33That way we won't have to spend anything.
00:42:35Why don't we just say that Mrs. Levi sent us?
00:42:37No, we're not supposed to ever say that.
00:42:39Shh.
00:42:40We're two men about town looking for hats for ladies.
00:42:44What ladies?
00:42:46Good afternoon, ma'am.
00:42:48Wonderful weather we're having.
00:42:50How'd you do, ma'am?
00:42:52And how are your hats?
00:42:53Charmed to make your acquaintance.
00:42:55A lovely place you have here.
00:42:57Good afternoon, gentlemen.
00:43:03Cornelius Hackle here.
00:43:04Barnaby Tucker here.
00:43:06Irene Malloy here.
00:43:10I'm very happy to meet you.
00:43:12Is there anything I can do for you?
00:43:20Well, you see, we're two ladies about town
00:43:22looking for some hats to Malloy, and we wanted...
00:43:24We're hats, you see, and we wondered if we could
00:43:26buy a lady or two to Malloy with for the afternoon.
00:43:29We want a hat.
00:43:31Well, for a lady, of course.
00:43:33And everyone said to go to Miss Malloy's
00:43:35because she's so pretty.
00:43:38I mean, her hats are so pretty.
00:43:41And what sort of hat would Mrs. Hackle be liking?
00:43:46Oh, no, Miss Malloy, there is no Mrs. Hackle.
00:43:49Yes, there is. Your mother.
00:43:52She didn't mean that.
00:43:55Did you, Miss Malloy?
00:43:57Now, this lady friend of yours,
00:43:59couldn't she come in with you someday
00:44:01and choose the hat herself?
00:44:03Impossible. There is no lady friend.
00:44:07But I thought you said that you were coming here to choose...
00:44:10I mean, she's Barnaby's.
00:44:12Huh? What?
00:44:14Yes, but she lives in Yonkers,
00:44:17and she said to pick out something reasonable,
00:44:19under a dollar.
00:44:21Don't be silly, Barnaby. Money's no object with us.
00:44:23None at all.
00:44:26Oh, this is my assistant, Miss Minnie Fay,
00:44:28Mr. Hackle, Mr. Tucker.
00:44:30Good afternoon, ma'am.
00:44:32Afternoon, ma'am.
00:44:34Oh!
00:44:39Excuse me, Mr. Tucker.
00:44:41Did you say Yonkers?
00:44:43Yes, ma'am. We're from Yonkers.
00:44:46Well, are you?
00:44:48Yes.
00:44:50And forgive me for saying this,
00:44:52but you should see Yonkers, Miss Malloy.
00:44:54Well, by that I mean,
00:44:56perhaps you and your gentleman friend here in New York
00:44:58might like to see it.
00:45:00Some say it's the most beautiful town in the world.
00:45:03That's what they say.
00:45:05So I've heard.
00:45:07But I'm afraid I don't have a gentleman friend here in New York.
00:45:09You don't?
00:45:11Barnaby, she doesn't have a gentleman friend.
00:45:13Hey, that's too bad.
00:45:15You know, if you should happen to have a Sunday free,
00:45:17you're Catholic, aren't you?
00:45:19Well, don't let that worry you.
00:45:21I'd be willing to change.
00:45:23If you're free in the near future,
00:45:25I'd...
00:45:27Well, we'd like to show you Yonkers
00:45:29from top to bottom.
00:45:31It's very historic.
00:45:33As a matter of fact, Mr. Hackle,
00:45:35I might be there sooner than you think.
00:45:37This Sunday?
00:45:39You see, I have a friend who lives in Yonkers.
00:45:41You do?
00:45:43Perhaps you know him.
00:45:45I do?
00:45:47Oh, it's always so foolish to ask in cases like that, isn't it?
00:45:49Why should you know him?
00:45:51It's a Mr. Vandergelder.
00:45:53Mr. Vandergelder?
00:45:55Horace Vandergelder?
00:45:57Vandergelder's hay and feed?
00:45:59No! No, no, no, no.
00:46:01As a matter of fact, Mr. Vandergelder's coming here
00:46:03to see me this very afternoon.
00:46:05Coming here this afternoon?
00:46:07Cornelius! Cornelius, look!
00:46:09His wolf trap!
00:46:11Look out!
00:46:15Beg any pardon, Miss Malloy.
00:46:17Gentlemen, what are you doing?
00:46:19We'll explain later. Just help us just this once.
00:46:21Come out of there this minute!
00:46:23We're as innocent as can be, Miss Malloy.
00:46:25Mr. Hackle, Mr. Tucker,
00:46:27I insist that you both come out or I'll be forced to...
00:46:29Mr. Vandergelder, how nice to see you.
00:46:31And, Dolly Levi, what a surprise.
00:46:33Irene, my darling, how well you look.
00:46:35You must be in love.
00:46:37Afternoon, Miss Malloy.
00:46:39What a pleasure to have you in New York,
00:46:41Mr. Vandergelder.
00:46:43Yes, Yonkers lies up there decimated today.
00:46:45We thought we'd pay you a little visit,
00:46:47Irene,
00:46:49unless it's inconvenient.
00:46:51Inconvenient?
00:46:53Whatever gave you that idea?
00:46:55Mr. Vandergelder thought he saw two customers in the shop.
00:46:57Two, uh, men.
00:46:59Men?
00:47:01In a ladies' hat shop?
00:47:05Come, let's go into my workroom,
00:47:07Mr. Vandergelder. I'm so eager for you to see it.
00:47:09I've already seen it twice.
00:47:11But, uh, I need your advice.
00:47:13Advice from Mr. Vandergelder.
00:47:15The whole city should hear this and grow rich.
00:47:17Advice is cheap, Miss Malloy.
00:47:19It's the things that come gift-wrapped that count.
00:47:21I have never heard it put more beautifully.
00:47:23Thank you, Mr. Vandergelder.
00:47:25Chocolate-covered peanuts.
00:47:27Unshelled. They're the expensive kind.
00:47:29Why don't we open them in the workroom?
00:47:31Miss Malloy,
00:47:33I've come here today because I have important
00:47:35business to discuss with you.
00:47:37Just as soon as Mrs. Levi
00:47:39says goodbye.
00:47:41Pay no attention to me. I'm just browsing.
00:47:43Business, Mr. Vandergelder?
00:47:45The hay-and-feed business?
00:47:47Well, not exactly.
00:47:49A new hat shop in Yonkers?
00:47:51A city and quite historic, according...
00:47:55Yes, go on.
00:47:57Who's been telling you about Yonkers, may I ask?
00:47:59Oh, nobody.
00:48:01A friend.
00:48:03A friend?
00:48:05Well, you see, he...
00:48:07He?
00:48:09Yes. Uh, he...
00:48:11His name, Miss Malloy.
00:48:13What?
00:48:15His name.
00:48:17Oh, I believe it was...
00:48:19Cornelius Hackle of Yonkers.
00:48:23Cornelius Hackle?
00:48:25Yes. Do you know him?
00:48:27He's my head clerk.
00:48:29He is?
00:48:31Yes, he's been in my store for ten years.
00:48:33Where would you have known him?
00:48:35Uh, just one of those chance meetings, I suppose.
00:48:37Yes, oh, yes, one of those chance meetings.
00:48:39Chance meetings? Cornelius Hackle has no right
00:48:41to chance meetings. Where was it?
00:48:43Really, Mr. Vandergelder,
00:48:45it's very unlike you to question me in such a way.
00:48:47He'll come out in hours later. Mr. Vandergelder,
00:48:49your head clerk is better known than you think he is.
00:48:51Nonsense. Oh, yes, he's in New York all the time.
00:48:53He goes everywhere. He's very well liked.
00:48:55Everybody knows Cornelius Hackle.
00:48:57He never comes to New York. He wakes all day in my store,
00:48:59and then he goes to sleep in the brand room at 9 o'clock.
00:49:01So you think, but it's not true.
00:49:03Dolly Levi, you are mistaken.
00:49:05Horace Vandergelder, you keep your nose so deep
00:49:07in your account books, you don't even know what goes on.
00:49:09Yes, by day,
00:49:11Cornelius Hackle is your faithful, trusted clerk,
00:49:13but by night, oh, by night,
00:49:15he leads a double life, that is all.
00:49:17Why, he is...
00:49:19Why, he's here, at the opera,
00:49:21at the great restaurants
00:49:23in all the fashionable homes.
00:49:25He's even at the Harmony Gardens restaurant,
00:49:27you know, two, three times a week. The fact is,
00:49:29Mr. Vandergelder, he is the wittiest,
00:49:31he is the gayest, he is the naughtiest,
00:49:33most delightful man in New York City.
00:49:35He's just... He's the, the
00:49:37famous Cornelius Hackle, that's all.
00:49:39It ain't the same man.
00:49:41If I thought that Cornelius Hackle came to New York,
00:49:43I'd discharge him.
00:49:45Who took the horses out of Jenny Lynn's carriage and pulled her through the streets?
00:49:47Who? Cornelius Hackle.
00:49:49Who, the other night, dressed up as a waiter at the Fifth Avenue hotel,
00:49:51and took an oyster and dropped it right down.
00:49:53No, it's too wicked, I can't say it.
00:49:55Say it. No, but it was Cornelius Hackle.
00:49:57It ain't the same man.
00:49:59Where'd he get the money? Oh, he's very rich.
00:50:01Rich? I keep his money in my own safe.
00:50:03He has $145.36.
00:50:05Oh, Mr. Vandergelder,
00:50:07you are killing me. He's one of the Hackles.
00:50:09The Hackles? Yes, they built the, uh,
00:50:11the Raritan Canal. Then why would he work in my store?
00:50:13Well, I'll tell you. I don't want to hear it.
00:50:15I'm going home. I have a headache.
00:50:17It ain't the same man. I tell you, he sleeps in my brand room.
00:50:19You can't get away from facts. I just made him my chief click.
00:50:21If you had any sense, you'd make him a partner.
00:50:23Irene, darling, I can see
00:50:25you were as taken with him as everybody else is.
00:50:27But I only met him once, very hastily.
00:50:29Now, don't you be thinking of marrying him.
00:50:31Darling, what are you saying? You think it over carefully.
00:50:33He breaks hearts like Icarinas.
00:50:35Who? Cornelius Hackle.
00:50:37Miss Molloy, how long has he been
00:50:39calling on you? Mr. Vandergelder,
00:50:41suppose I were to tell you that he has not
00:50:43been calling on me. Excuse me.
00:50:45Not now, Minnie.
00:50:55Stop singing, Minnie. There's a man in there.
00:50:57That's not amusing, Minnie. But there's a man in there.
00:50:59And we don't wish to be interrupted. There's a man in there.
00:51:01Go back to the workroom immediately. Immediately.
00:51:03The poor dear is tired from overwork.
00:51:05But there's a man in there.
00:51:07We'll get him out.
00:51:09Whoever you are, come over.
00:51:11Mr. Vandergelder, do you realize what you're saying?
00:51:13I certainly do. Now, just a minute.
00:51:15Before you make another move
00:51:17or say another word that you might regret,
00:51:19allow me.
00:51:21Dolly. Stand back.
00:51:29There. You see?
00:51:31So much for this nonsense about that
00:51:33darling girl hiding a man
00:51:35in her closet. I think we'll just forget
00:51:37you ever said it. Now, wait a minute. It's forgotten.
00:51:39Yes. Because there's
00:51:41nobody in there.
00:51:43Yes. God bless you.
00:51:55Miss Malloy.
00:51:57Yes, Mr. Vandergelder,
00:51:59there is a man in there.
00:52:01I see. There also happens
00:52:03to be a very simple explanation.
00:52:05But for the present, I think I should
00:52:07just thank you for your visit and say
00:52:09good afternoon.
00:52:11Miss! Miss!
00:52:15Another?
00:52:17Another.
00:52:19Good Lord. The whole room is
00:52:21crawling with men. Irene, darling,
00:52:23congratulations.
00:52:25Miss Malloy,
00:52:27I shan't trouble you again.
00:52:29And I hope vice versa.
00:52:33Morris, where are you going?
00:52:35To march in the 14th street
00:52:37parade with the kind of people I can trust.
00:52:39700 men.
00:52:41700 men.
00:53:03Now.
00:53:05Have you met Miss Minnie Faye?
00:53:07Just do me the pleasure of leaving my shop or I shall call for
00:53:09you. Don't be silly, Irene. There's no fun in a jailhouse.
00:53:11Yeah, of course.
00:53:13Please, everybody, don't talk at once.
00:53:15Just because you're rich in fame
00:53:17doesn't mean that you can cause all this trouble
00:53:19without making up for it. We'll do anything.
00:53:21Irene, this is Cornelius Hackle.
00:53:23We've already met. How do you do?
00:53:25Jail is absolutely out. Cornelius, explain
00:53:27to her. I'm Cornelius Hackle.
00:53:29It seems to me that the only way
00:53:31to make up for it, yes, of course, of course. Irene,
00:53:33darling, you've sent for the law at once.
00:53:35You're going to have them both put away for years on a charge like this.
00:53:37How will these help? Only have dinner with them first.
00:53:39Dinner? Well, that's to show you that you try to settle
00:53:41amicably. That's the way things are
00:53:43done in the law. Dinner first, life imprisonment later.
00:53:45It's a lovely day. It's going to be a lovelier
00:53:47evening. Who knows what's going to happen before you send them
00:53:49off to jail? Mr. Hackle!
00:53:51All by all means. It's what Barnaby
00:53:53and I had in mind all along. Minnie, you
00:53:55and I have been respectable for years. Now we're
00:53:57in disgrace. We might as well make the most of it.
00:53:59We'd be delighted to accept. It is the only
00:54:01sensible thing to do. Cornelius!
00:54:03Now
00:54:05I know a little donut shop in the railway
00:54:07station. Donut shop?
00:54:09Certainly not. We want
00:54:11a fine dinner in the heart of the fashionable world.
00:54:13And I know just the place.
00:54:15The Harmonia Gardens on 14th Street.
00:54:17Your favorite restaurant,
00:54:19Mr. Hackle. The finest food that
00:54:21money can buy in a lovely orchestra.
00:54:23A poker contest this very night.
00:54:25Dancing? You just ask for Rudolph, we'll give
00:54:27you the best table. Oh, we could never
00:54:29go there. Oh, no. It sounds
00:54:31marvelous. Come, Minnie.
00:54:33We'll close the shop and take the whole
00:54:35afternoon off. Oh, I mean we
00:54:37could never. Don't misunderstand
00:54:39me. It isn't the money or
00:54:41anything. It's the
00:54:43the
00:54:45What, Mr. Hackle?
00:54:47It's the dancing. You see, I
00:54:49don't know how. And they have contests
00:54:51and things like that at a Harmonia
00:54:53whatever it is. You said so yourself and I don't
00:54:55know how. It would take me weeks, months,
00:54:57years to learn.
00:54:59Mrs. Dolly Levi,
00:55:0128 and 3 quarter year old
00:55:03chief clerk's taught Helen.
00:55:05Now, you just put one arm here
00:55:07and one arm there. It's no use.
00:55:09I have absolutely no sense of rhythm.
00:55:11Absolutely no sense of rhythm
00:55:13is one of the primary requirements for
00:55:15learning by the Levi method.
00:55:17Just give me five minutes of your time, Mr. Hackle.
00:55:19I'll have you dancing in the streets. I think we'll start
00:55:21with Lesson 7, Walls Kick Turn. Now,
00:55:23it's very simple. You just go right foot touch, left foot touch,
00:55:25under, back around, touch, back, through, around,
00:55:27behind, out, over, release,
00:55:29unfurl. Oh, oh,
00:55:31that's just absolutely wonderful, Mr.
00:55:33Hackle. When I think of the lucky
00:55:35women who'll find heaven in your arms,
00:55:37I think we'll go back to Lesson 1,
00:55:39shall we? Put your
00:55:41hand on her waist
00:55:43and stand
00:55:45with her right
00:55:47in your left
00:55:49hand
00:55:51and
00:55:53one
00:55:55and
00:55:57one
00:55:59two
00:56:01three
00:56:03one
00:56:05two
00:56:07three. Oh, no, this one.
00:56:09And one
00:56:11two
00:56:13three
00:56:15one
00:56:17two
00:56:19three. Look!
00:56:21I'm dancing!
00:56:23I was.
00:56:25Of course you were, Mr. Hackle.
00:56:27Take
00:56:29the
00:56:31someone whose arms
00:56:33you're in
00:56:35hold on
00:56:37to her tight
00:56:39and spin
00:56:41and one
00:56:43two three, one two
00:56:45three, one two
00:56:47three. Look! I'm
00:56:49dancing!
00:56:51Come here.
00:56:53Turn around and turn around,
00:56:55try floating through the air.
00:56:57Can't you be a little more
00:56:59aesthetic?
00:57:01Don't you think my dancing has
00:57:03some polish and a flair?
00:57:05The word I think I'd use is
00:57:07athletic.
00:57:09Well, my heart is about
00:57:11to burst.
00:57:13My head is about
00:57:15to pop. And
00:57:17now that I'm dancing,
00:57:19who cares if I ever
00:57:21stop? That's
00:57:23wonderful. Look, everybody!
00:57:25I, Cornelius
00:57:27Hackle, sport! I'm
00:57:29dancing!
00:57:31You're next, Mr. Tucker.
00:57:37Glide
00:57:39and step
00:57:41and then
00:57:43step
00:57:45and glide.
00:57:47And everyone,
00:57:49stand aside.
00:57:51Not yet, Mr. Tucker.
00:57:53One two three, one two three, one
00:57:55two three. Look!
00:57:57He's dancing. I think he's
00:57:59holding out on us. You could
00:58:01learn to polka if you worked
00:58:03a week or so. Or the tango
00:58:05filled with passion seething.
00:58:07I might join the
00:58:09chorus of the Castle Garden
00:58:11show. Whatever you do,
00:58:13Mr. Tucker, keep breathing.
00:58:15For my heart is about
00:58:17to burst.
00:58:19My head is about
00:58:21to pop. And
00:58:23now that we're dancing, who
00:58:25cares if we ever
00:58:27stop?
00:58:39Come on.
00:58:45Come on.
00:59:15Come on.
00:59:45Come on.
00:59:47Come on.
00:59:49Come on.

01:00:15Come on.
01:00:17Come on.
01:00:19Come on.
01:00:31When there's
01:00:33someone you hardly know
01:00:37and wish you were closer
01:00:39to, remember
01:00:41Remember that he can be near to you
01:00:49Though you've only just said hello
01:00:53She's suddenly someone who can
01:00:58Make all your daydreams appear to you while you're dancing
01:01:11Don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry

01:04:17dolly dolly cornelius is taking us to see the parade everyone will be marching come on mrs
01:04:24Levi oh dolly the world is full of such wonderful things
01:04:33hurry before the parade passes by
01:04:35Yes, I will. I will.
01:04:50Before the parade passes by
01:04:54Before it all moves on
01:04:59And only I'm left
01:05:02Before the parade passes by
01:05:12I've got to get in step
01:05:16While there's still time left
01:05:20I'm ready to move out in front
01:05:27Life without life
01:05:31Has no reason or rhyme left
01:05:37With the rest of them
01:05:41With the best of them
01:05:45I want to hold my head up high
01:05:54I need a goal again
01:05:58I need a drive again
01:06:01I want to feel my heart
01:06:06Coming alive again
01:06:12Before the parade
01:06:20Passes by
01:06:34Ephraim, let me go.
01:06:39It's been long enough, Ephraim.
01:06:43Every night, just like you'd want me to,
01:06:48I've put out the can, made myself a rum toddy,
01:06:53and before I went to bed, said a little prayer,
01:06:56thanking God that I was independent,
01:06:59that no one else's life was mixed up with mine.
01:07:07But lately, Ephraim,
01:07:10I've begun to realize that,
01:07:13for a long time,
01:07:16I have not shed one tear,
01:07:20nor have I been for one moment
01:07:25outrageously happy.
01:07:28Now, Horace Vandergelder,
01:07:31he's always saying,
01:07:33the world is full of fools.
01:07:35And in a way, he's right, isn't he?
01:07:37I mean himself, Cornelius, Irene, myself.
01:07:40But there comes a time when you have got to decide
01:07:43whether you want to be a fool among fools
01:07:46or a fool alone.
01:07:49Well, I have made that decision, Ephraim.
01:07:53But I would feel so much better about it
01:07:56if you could just give me a sign,
01:07:59any kind of a sign that you approve.
01:08:02I'm going back, Ephraim.

01:08:33back into my life.
01:08:35I'm ready to move
01:08:38out in front.
01:08:39I've had enough of just passing by life.
01:08:44With the rest of them,
01:08:46with the best of them,
01:08:48I can hold my head up high.
01:08:52For I've got to go again.
01:08:55I've got to drive again.
01:08:57I've got to feel my heart
01:08:59coming alive again.

01:11:46Earning an honest dollar,
01:11:47which is more than I've made
01:11:48in a legitimate stage in two years.
01:11:50I haven't a pity on you.
01:11:52But to me, Packers float.
01:11:54Listen, if there was more money in it,
01:11:56I'd play White at a Feast.

01:12:14I came here for some privacy.
01:12:17I owe you an apology, Mr. Gladiator.
01:12:19And I didn't want to let it go another minute.
01:12:21You owe me more than that.
01:12:22What about the fee I gave you
01:12:23for getting me tangled up
01:12:24with that collector of men's hats?
01:12:26Yes, Irene Malloy,
01:12:27she was a disappointment, darling girl.
01:12:29I'll have you know the confectioner
01:12:30gave me back every cent
01:12:31for those chocolate-covered peanuts.
01:12:32Well, I'm sorry.
01:12:33I never give cash refunds.
01:12:34If there was a shred of decency in you...
01:12:35However, being an honest woman
01:12:37who believes in giving service
01:12:38that's been paid for,
01:12:39I've already arranged to make it up to you.
01:12:41Dolly Levi, let me make one thing clear.
01:12:43You have been discharged as my marriage broker.
01:12:45I have no further use for one.
01:12:47From now on, you are just a woman
01:12:48like anyone else.
01:12:50I am?
01:12:51And I'm just a man like anyone else.
01:12:53And just like anyone else,
01:12:54I will do everything I can
01:12:55to avoid a reduction
01:12:56such as you specialize in.
01:12:58Well, I can understand your feelings
01:12:59in the matter, Mr. Vandergelder.
01:13:00And I am here today
01:13:01marching beside you
01:13:02to assure you
01:13:03that there will be no further need
01:13:05for my services
01:13:06after your dinner engagement tonight.
01:13:09Dinner engagement?
01:13:117.30 at the Harmony Gardens restaurant.
01:13:12It's all arranged.
01:13:13Private room table for two.

01:13:15Who?
01:13:16Who will be waiting?
01:13:18Who will be waiting?
01:13:19The very rich, very beautiful lady
01:13:21I referred to
01:13:22when I saw you in Yonkers this morning.
01:13:24The heiress to a fortune, remember?
01:13:31I'm not interested.
01:13:33What's her name?
01:13:34Uh, Ernestina.
01:13:36I'm not interested.
01:13:38What's her last name?
01:13:40Simple.
01:13:41Uh, simple.
01:13:42Ernestina Simple.
01:13:44Can she cook?
01:13:46Can she cook?
01:13:47Frankly, I could never understand
01:13:48why a girl like that
01:13:49who could afford to have
01:13:50every server in New York City
01:13:51if she wanted to
01:13:52makes all her own meals
01:13:53on a solid gold stove.
01:13:55Sounds like a fool
01:13:56and I'm not interested in fools.
01:13:57Neither am I.

01:16:57You
01:17:27You
01:17:57Cornelius are you sure all they're doing is changing their clothes. Don't worry. They'll be here
01:18:02I mean I get dressed every morning in less than three minutes
01:18:07Women wear more they do
01:18:11Underneath
01:18:13Cornelius maybe we'd better leave while there's still time
01:18:16Never we've seen everything the parade the Statue of Liberty the stuffed whale of Arnhem's Museum
01:18:22I could die a happy man right now
01:18:23I'll be worth it. No matter what happens the worst anybody can do is put us in jail
01:18:28But as long as we live we'll never forget
01:18:32The night we took Irene Malloy and Minnie Faye to dinner at Harmonia Gardens
01:18:38on less than a dollar
01:18:40Cornelius wake up and there's another reason we can't go back to Yonkers one more thing one more thing
01:18:46We promised to do before we go back and turn into a couple of banding elders Cornelius
01:18:52You're not thinking of kissing miss Malloy
01:18:55Maybe mm-hmm. She'll scream
01:18:58Barnaby you don't know anything about women
01:19:01Only that we can't afford them
01:19:03You might as well know that everybody except us goes through life kissing right and left all the time
01:19:10They do yes, I often wondered about that
01:19:21Oh
01:19:25Smile Barnaby, I'm smiling look rich and gay and charming. I'm looking gay and charming
01:19:35Hello
01:19:40Here we are hello
01:19:42Oh
01:19:48I'm pleased to meet you. Miss Malloy. No last names after all. We've been through together this afternoon. It's Irene and Minnie
01:19:57Irene
01:20:03Does that count Cornelius I don't think so count
01:20:08You see we were counting here while we were waiting
01:20:12People do nothing but count their money
01:20:15I'm so hungry. Why don't we go in here and have some hors d'oeuvres first?
01:20:20No, no, no, no, it's very fashionable. It would spoil our appetites or we could have an aperitif
01:20:25That's out of the question because Barnaby and I don't agree with that sort of thing
01:20:29but all those people do well, they simply don't know that a
01:20:35Peritif is no longer considered elegant or isn't
01:20:41Hasn't been for years in that case. It's on to Harmonia Gardens for dinner. Call a hack Cornelius hack
01:20:46Oh my life. I've wanted to ride in a hack. Oh, there's one. No. No, we can't do that. I
01:20:54Mean it isn't the money or anything. Oh
01:20:57It's just that
01:20:59nowadays
01:21:01Really elegant people never take hacks. Hacks is out. They all go by streetcar then by all means we go by streetcar
01:21:09Imagine I've been elegant all my life and I never knew it. Of course if you really want to be really elegant
01:21:15Oh, we do we do
01:21:19You'll walk
01:21:27Yes, New York, it's really us Barnaby and
01:21:32Cornelius

01:42:09pair of
01:42:10Penniless pretenders, but Cornelius I've known that all along you have

01:42:21You're the nicest ladies a man ever went to jail for
01:42:25Jail
01:42:27We don't have the money to pay for this dinner. Of course, you don't many show these two sports
01:42:34What I've got in my purse

01:42:46Can't help myself
01:42:51Wow
01:42:56Oh
01:43:01No, no mini my white handbag not that

01:43:54If I ordered food like that every night, I'd be out of business inside the inn waiting for somebody else

01:44:04I don't have pigs miss simple
01:44:06I have chickens and I did not get them by being extravagant and wasteful. I see no point in this trivial discussion. Mr
01:44:12Van der Gelder nor in my remaining here any longer in as much as it is quite clear to me that you are
01:44:19You forgive the expression
01:44:22entirely unsuitable
01:44:25Suitable nevertheless, I assure you I will never say a word to mrs. Levi about this unfortunate evening and I
01:44:32Suggest you do likewise when she arrives here
01:44:36Did you say arrives here? Yes, she planned to join us at 8. You may tell her I left because I felt sick to my stomach

01:56:36This is Levi you have a habit of asking highly personal questions. Mr
01:56:40Vander Gelder if you're thinking of getting married, you might as well learn right now that you have to let women be women now
01:56:46Tell me did you like it?
01:56:48It's you like you always wanting to know everything always putting your nose into other people's affairs
01:56:52Anybody who lived with you would get as nervous as a cat. What?
01:56:56What was that you just said I said anybody who lived with you would get it
01:57:00Mr. Vander Gelder you get that idea right out of your head this minute
01:57:03Why the idea of you even mentioning such a thing, I mean understand once and for all that I have no intention of marrying you
01:57:10Well, I didn't mean that you've been hinting around such things for some time now
01:57:14I have not from now on put those ideas right out of your head stop talking like that
01:57:18That's not what I meant at all. I hope not
01:57:19I should hope not Horace Vander Gelder you go your way and I'll go mine
01:57:22I am NOT some Irene Malloy who said you can tell with a few chocolate covered peanuts
01:57:26Unshelled why the idea of you have been suggesting such a thing you misunderstood me. Well, I certainly hope I did
01:57:31However, let's not discuss it anymore. Here's our food. I don't feel well. Mr. Vander Gelder Rudolph
01:57:36Here is a lovely a lovely wing for you and some dumplings
01:57:42Oh lighter than air
01:57:44That's what I need some air and some giblets very very tender and very good for you
01:57:49No, as I said before Horace you go your way and I'll go mine. Well here have some wine
01:57:54You'll feel better at once. However, since you brought this whole matter up, there is one more thing
01:57:57I ought to say I didn't bring I ought to say before we forget all about it. It's true
01:58:01I'm a woman who likes to manage things, but I wouldn't like to manage anything as disorderly as your household is out of control
01:58:07It's untidy. Oh, no Horace. You can do that for yourself. God helping. It is not out of control. Very well
01:58:12Let's not say another word about it. Oh have some beats. I'm not hungry and I don't like beat
01:58:18No Horace a complaining quarrelsome friendless. So like you is no sort of companion for me
01:58:22You salt your beets and I'll salt mine saying that I won't say another word besides
01:58:27I'm not those things you said I am so but it looks to me as if you were the only person in the world that
01:58:31Knows it. No Horace. I have decided to enjoy life. Hmm
01:58:35That's for you
01:58:35You could always find yourself some house people can prepare three meals for a dollar a day can be done if you like cold baked
01:58:40Beans, no Horace. I can just see you now spending your last days listening at keyhole. So fear somebody's cheating you
01:58:47I don't like beats. I hate beats. Yeah, you see now that's the difference between us
01:58:51I'd be nagging you all day long to get some spirit into you and the pity of it is all you could be a
01:58:56Perfectly charming witty amiable man if you want to I don't want to be charming, but you are look at you
01:59:02You can't help yourself
01:59:05Listening at keyholes you have no right to say such things to me at your age
01:59:09You ought to enjoy hearing the truth my age my age. You're always talking about my age
01:59:13I don't even know what your age is
01:59:14But I do know that up at John goes with bad food and bad trouble you'll double in six months now sit down Horace
01:59:18And let's talk of something else. However, before we change the subject, there's one more thing. I am going to say
01:59:22I don't want to hear it. You're wasting your time. Dolly Levi. I have no intention of asking you to marry me
01:59:28Oh, I suppose that means you want me to ask you what I'm sorry Horace. I'm turning you down
01:59:32How can you tighten me down when I haven't even asked you anything? It's no use arguing. I've made up your mind
01:59:37Oh, yeah, let me cut your wings. I don't want my wings cut. No man does ours. No man does I got a headache?
01:59:43I'm leaving. Oh
01:59:45No, you can't go now the dance competition just about to begin ladies and gentlemen, if I may have your attention, please
01:59:53It is my pleasure to announce on behalf of the management of the harmonia Gardens restaurant that our dance

02:01:39Oh
02:01:43Isn't he wonderful
02:01:45That's Ambrose Kemper so-called artist. Why so it is
02:01:50Wonder his pictures are so awful. He must paint with his feet. He's sure to win first prize
02:01:56I mean, yeah, I should see him now dancing with another girl
02:02:00Such a pretty little thing too
02:02:02Shameful, that's what it is shameful
02:02:09I
02:02:15Look there's that Malloy woman dancing with a man. I think it's a man
02:02:23And only a few hours ago she was waiting for me to propose
02:02:27shocking
02:02:28No faithfulness left this world
02:02:30I agree
02:02:30I certainly do and it's it's very selfish that people like us don't jump right up and marry someone just to set the world a
02:02:36good example
02:03:00Simon good
02:03:06Oh
02:03:36Oh
02:03:38Oh

02:04:36Oh
02:04:53Horace Vandegaard flat on your back. You are still charming
02:05:00Cornelius Barnaby
02:05:03Perhaps there's a way I can get mr. Vander Gelder to give you back your jobs. What how I
02:05:11Could become his wife
02:05:17No, that's impossible it is yes, but why Cornelius
02:05:23Because that's what you have to give me a reason. Never mind the reason Cornelius. Never mind the reason
02:05:28Don't tell me to shush
02:05:30Don't tell me to shush what's going on there Cornelius quick. Hey you
02:05:36What's all this noise?
02:05:38What's happening here? Now you stay out of this officer. Are you all right, miss?
02:05:42I'll let you know in a little while you young man. I'm only trying to tell this lady something
02:05:47Well, it's too late and you're too loud and I should run you in for disturbing the peace. No, it's not too late
02:05:53That's why I'm shouting for 28 years
02:05:56My whole life I never did anything I just worked took orders never went anywhere stayed in Yonkers
02:06:03Yonkers and today
02:06:05The most important thing that can happen to a man that might never have happened
02:06:09If I'd stayed in Yonkers happened to me because I left Yonkers and came to New York and met this lady
02:06:16Met her this afternoon
02:06:19Mr.
02:06:20Just what are you talking about?
02:06:23Officer I am talking about none other than love
02:06:29Love
02:06:30Young man, are you trying to tell me that after 28 years of Yonkers?
02:06:35You've fallen in love with this young lady in one day. Oh, no officer
02:06:39I didn't fall in love with miss Irene Malloy of this city in just a day. It was much quicker than that an hour
02:06:45No, even that's too long. What's less than a minute a second less than that a moment
02:06:51That's it that is it now all of you listen to me
02:06:58Wow, please
02:07:03It only

02:07:16Your
02:07:20Heart knows
02:07:23In a moment
02:07:28You will never

02:07:41Held her
02:07:44For an instant
02:07:48But my arms felt sure and strong
02:07:58It only
02:08:03Takes a moment
02:08:09To be loved
02:08:14Oh
02:08:25Isn't the world for wonderful things I
02:08:29Have lost so many things my job my future everything that people think is important, but I don't care
02:08:36Because even if I have to dig ditches for the rest of my life
02:08:39I should be a ditch digger who once had a wonderful day
02:08:45Mr. Do you mind I came in late right after it only
02:09:09It's a moment
02:09:16He held me for an instant
02:09:25But his arms felt safe and strong

02:18:06But I shall certainly make him happy. You can be sure of that
02:18:11I am going to marry Horace Van der Gelder
02:18:15And send his money out into the world doing all the things you taught me
02:18:21As you always used to say I from money
02:18:24Money
02:18:26Pardon the expression is like manure. It's not worth a thing unless it's spread around
02:18:33Encouraging young things to grow
02:18:36anyhow
02:18:37That's the opinion of the future. This is Horace Van der Gelder
02:18:42and never
02:18:44I'm still waiting for that sign
02:18:47That you approve
02:18:54Outside front and back
02:19:03Bossy
02:19:05Scheming meddling
02:19:07Irritating inquisitive
02:19:09Exasperating
02:19:12Horace
02:19:14I know you're no longer interested
02:19:17but
02:19:19I have found you the ideal wife
02:19:21Dolly Levi I don't want you to find me any ideal wife
02:19:24If I want an ideal wife I'll find one of my own and I have found her and it's you damn it
02:19:31I know I've been a fool and I probably always will be but Dolly forgive me and
02:19:36Marry me
02:19:42Oh no Horace I
02:19:44I don't dare I don't dare
02:19:46What do you mean?
02:19:48Well, um, you know as well as I do that you're the first citizen of Yonkers and
02:19:54Your wife would have to be a
02:19:56Somebody you are you are a wonderful woman. Yes, but uh
02:20:01Do you really think I have it in me to forego fancy clothes and expensive jewels
02:20:06And instead be a benefactress to half the town
02:20:12In other words to be a credit to you
02:20:16Dolly everybody knows that you could do anything you wanted to do
02:20:22By the way Horace, here's the money I borrowed from you yesterday
02:20:26Keep it keep it
02:20:32Horace
02:20:35I never thought I'd ever hear you say anything like that
02:20:40You know, it's bad business letting Cornelius open up a store right across the street from you
02:20:44Who's your idea? Better take him back and let him be your partner partner and father
02:20:48We can have Cornelius his old job. Now. Wait a minute. We can all be together so we can dance whatever God's wedding
02:20:52That doesn't go too far. I'll dance at no wedding
02:20:55I don't know how to dance would take me weeks months years to learn. All right, I'll dance you will love it
02:21:00Excuse me. Mr. Vandegelder. I said outside now get moving Horace Vandegelder. Now what is going on around here?
02:21:06Oh nothing. I just thought I'd have the shutters done over and forest green
02:21:11Forest green shutters. I know the old paint still good, but that's fellas just set up business needs a good start
02:21:18You see Dolly. I've always felt that money pardon. The expression is like manure
02:21:23It's not worth a thing unless it's spread around
02:21:26Encouraging young things to grow
