00:00It was 1954, television was live, and Benji Stone landed the job of his dreams as a TV

00:15comedy writer.

00:17Alice, what are we seeing?

00:18Alan Swan's movies.

00:20It was the year Hollywood's greatest hero swashbuckled his way onto live TV and into

00:27Benji's life.

00:28He's blasted.

00:29Good God, it's Renfield.

00:31I thought he was dead.

00:33Swan better be at every rehearsal sober, or it's your neck.

00:37They've asked me to stay with you and help you over some of the rough spots.

00:40Like showing up?

00:42That's one.

00:43Another is not passing out.

00:45What sort of heroic idiot am I this time?

00:48A musketeer idiot.

00:49I read that on the airplane.

00:52Very funny.

00:52Very good.

00:53I wrote that.

00:54Did you?

00:56Bravo, Stan.

00:58Bravo.

00:58Have a bonus thought, love.

01:00We'll be two for dinner.

01:03Oh, no, Mr. Swan.

01:04This is exactly the way it started last time.

01:10And, you know, I'm supposed to watch you.

01:13Good.

01:13Watch this.

01:15Now, all we have to do is to get from here to there.

01:20I'm going down now.

01:22I'll have a life.

01:30Five minutes to air.

01:32This is places, people.

01:33Sure, this is live television.

01:36Live.

01:40What are you doing?

01:41Freaking and leaving.

01:42Take it.

01:47Don't.

01:50I'm afraid.

01:53The flesh and blood life size no larger.

01:56I'm not that silly damn hero I never was.

02:00To me, you were.

02:01You couldn't have convinced me unless you had that courage.

02:05Nobody's that good an actor.

02:06I'm not an actor.

02:08I'm a movie star.

02:16Alan Swan may have been the worst person to look up to.

02:20But it was the best time Benji ever had.

02:27There's 30 years for this.

02:33My favorite year.
