starring Spencer Tracy. While the main plot focuses on a ruthless carnival showman, the film is legendary for a breathtaking, terrifying 10-minute sequence depicting Hell that visually mirrors the scale of the original poem.

00:00:00THE END
00:00:32THE END
00:01:02THE END
00:01:03Are you ready, men?
00:01:04Okay, Carter.
00:01:07Go!
00:01:30Come on, officer.
00:01:31Show us what makes the ship run.
00:01:32Yes, that'll be a mark.
00:01:34But the store call isn't the place for pretty clothes like yours.
00:01:37Oh, come on.
00:01:37Take us down.
00:01:39All right.
00:01:40There we go.
00:02:00Time's up, you buzzards.
00:02:08You win. You beat him by five shovels, bozo.
00:02:12That's poor bitch you owe me, Mike.
00:02:14Attaboy, attaboy. Better luck next time, Mike.
00:02:16Yeah, you see? You stick to me and you'll get somewhere.
00:02:19Hey, wait a minute, Carter. Where do I come in?
00:02:22Ever since you come on this boat, you've been making bets on me.
00:02:25Well, I've been figuring. You've been making all the money and I've been doing all the work.
00:02:28Well, sure, sure. That's right. That's right. I make sure you're the champion, don't I?
00:02:34Yeah? Well, I'm true being a sucker, see?
00:02:36If you didn't have your arm in a slinger, I'd knock your head off.
00:02:39Well, don't let that arm worry you.
00:02:41Just a little trick I had up my sleeve, boys, to keep from working too hard.
00:02:44I'll tell you what I'll do with you. I'll bet you two bucks I can shovel more coal than you
00:02:47can.
00:02:47That's a bet.
00:02:47All right, let's get going, James. Come on.
00:02:51Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on.
00:02:53Come on. Come on.
00:02:55Come on.
00:03:02That arm got well pretty fast, Carter.
00:03:04Yeah, it always does. My old man was a contortionist.
00:03:06Well, you'll be a contortionist yourself if you can wiggle out of this.
00:03:12Jump the faker, eh?
00:03:14And you even fooled the doctor.
00:03:16In the banner, it was your arm. Panama, your neck.
00:03:18Right after you signed it, Sidney, it was your back.
00:03:20Yeah, what are you going to do about it?
00:03:21Just this.
00:03:22Doc you a month's pay and kick you off this ship at the next port.
00:03:25Well, that's okay with me. I was getting off there anyway.
00:03:27I got a real job waiting for me there.
00:03:29I'll get to work with that shovel.
00:03:35Isn't this priceless?
00:03:36I wouldn't miss this for the world.
00:03:41It's funny, eh, sister?
00:03:43Well, one of these days, I'll be right up there where you are.
00:03:46And then maybe I'll be laughing, too.
00:03:54Oh, come on, folks.
00:03:55What's the fun?
00:03:56Come on.
00:03:57Come on, Vernick.
00:03:58Come on, yes, sir.
00:03:58You just missed this horse.
00:04:00I can't throw a baseball.
00:04:02Out of the neck.
00:04:03You're springing the rustic eggs.
00:04:05I want to get the ale to catch you.
00:04:06Watch this.
00:04:08Come on, folks.
00:04:09Come on, take a chance.
00:04:10Come on, boys.
00:04:12Come on.
00:04:12Keep going, darling.
00:04:14You missed me.
00:04:19Go on left, you hyenas.
00:04:23Hey, you.
00:04:24Come on.
00:04:24Give me my dough.
00:04:25I'm quitting.
00:04:26You're quitting?
00:04:26You get no dough.
00:04:27No dough, huh?
00:04:28Don't dough.
00:04:29That's what's the matter with you guys.
00:04:30You can't take it.
00:04:31I'll see how you can take it.
00:04:33Get you.
00:04:35Get over here, buddy.
00:04:45Hey.
00:04:45Hey.
00:04:46What do you want?
00:04:47Hamburger?
00:04:48Yeah.
00:04:48What do you like?
00:04:49What do you like?
00:04:49Red, medium, or wet dough?
00:04:51Raw.
00:04:52Raw.
00:04:53No onions?
00:04:54Raw.
00:04:55Raw.
00:04:56Oh, ho, ho.
00:04:57Oh, ho, ho.
00:04:57I got you.
00:04:58Shoot.
00:04:59Raw beef.
00:05:00It's very good for the bad eye.
00:05:03Nothing will be five or six.
00:05:05I'm afraid you'll have to charge it.
00:05:07What do you mean?
00:05:08He'll no pay?
00:05:10I ain't got a cent.
00:05:11Three times today the people told me to charge it.
00:05:14Now I got a man.
00:05:16He's been on pay right now.
00:05:17I caught the cop.
00:05:18Wait a minute, Tony.
00:05:22Take them both out of there.
00:05:24Thanks.
00:05:25Quite all right.
00:05:38Famous fortune teller, riding inside.
00:05:40Ladies and gentlemen.
00:05:41Good afternoon, Abdulla.
00:05:42Why, hello, Bob.
00:05:44How are things going?
00:05:45Pretty good, thank you.
00:05:46That's fine.
00:05:47Thanks.
00:05:48What did you do that for?
00:05:50Why not?
00:05:51Can't pay you back.
00:05:52That's all right.
00:05:53Glad to help you out.
00:05:55Lose your job?
00:05:55Yeah, how did you know?
00:05:57Saw you when you started to work this afternoon.
00:05:59Didn't think you'd stay there long.
00:06:01Not much of a job anyway.
00:06:02No, kitchen baseball's my eye in my regular line,
00:06:04but you got to eat, you know.
00:06:05You work around here?
00:06:06Yeah.
00:06:07This is my place.
00:06:08Oh.
00:06:15Hey, what are you selling?
00:06:17There's a glimpse of hell and a few suggestions
00:06:19as to how to keep out of it.
00:06:20Hell, huh?
00:06:21That's a funny racket.
00:06:22I ought to be right at home here.
00:06:24We come inside.
00:06:25Let me clean up that eye
00:06:26and see what you're going to look like.
00:06:30I'll be right back.
00:06:32There we go.ר
00:07:14I'll get you. It's a peep show.
00:07:20Who's the dame?
00:07:22That's Cleopatra.
00:07:24The sensuous Egyptian queen who used her beauty to turn great soldiers into fools.
00:07:29She ain't so hot. I've seen better dames than that in Singapore.
00:07:35Who's that mug?
00:07:36The funny little guy.
00:07:38That is Dante.
00:07:40One of the greatest poets that ever lived.
00:07:42I never heard of him.
00:07:44He was born in Florence, Italy, 600 years ago.
00:07:47The message he gave to the world in his story of the inferno burns as brightly today as when he
00:07:53wrote it.
00:07:54And it brought hope to millions who were seeking the right path in life.
00:07:59The greatest poem ever written.
00:08:02That's him over here, too, huh?
00:08:04This fellow here.
00:08:05Who's his sidekick in the kimono?
00:08:08That is Virgil, the noble poet of ancient Rome, who served as Dante's guide through the nine cycles of the
00:08:15inferno.
00:08:16Their idea of a hot time, huh?
00:08:19Uh-oh.
00:08:20Uh-oh.
00:08:23Looks like dirty work was going on here.
00:08:26That's Salome, who danced with the head of John the Baptist.
00:08:30Where's the rest of them?
00:08:31She demanded his life as the price of her love.
00:08:33Uh-huh.
00:08:35Lost his head over, huh?
00:08:37That's a pretty good-looking guy, that fellow up there with a cheese knife.
00:08:40That is Alexander the Great, who had conquered the world when he was 30 years old.
00:08:46And then wept because there were no other world to conquer.
00:08:49Oh, that's funny.
00:08:50What?
00:08:52Well, I was just thinking.
00:08:54I'm just that fellow's age, and here I am weeping because I got a sack in the eye.
00:09:00You ought to have been a doctor.
00:09:02You'd have made good money at it.
00:09:03There are more important things in life than making money.
00:09:06What?
00:09:08Well, in my case, bringing a little happiness to those I meet along the way, sometimes with a message of
00:09:14hope.
00:09:17Giving is better than receiving.
00:09:20Yeah, that's what people used to tell me when I was a kid.
00:09:22I believed it, too, until I had it knocked out of me.
00:09:25Every time I had a chance that something good, some smarter guy took it away from me.
00:09:29Don't give up.
00:09:30Stick to it, and you'll win in the end.
00:09:31You bet I will.
00:09:33I've had every trick of the trade kicked into me.
00:09:35Now it's my turn to kick back.
00:09:38That's fine.
00:09:39That's fine.
00:09:39Thanks very much, Mr. McWade.
00:09:41They call me Pop around here.
00:09:43Thanks, Mr. McWade.
00:09:44My name is Carter, Jim Carter.
00:09:46Anything I can do for you, just call me up.
00:09:50Where?
00:09:51Well, now you got me.
00:09:54Maybe you'd like to stay here today, too, and help me clean this place up.
00:09:57I'll be glad to pay you for it.
00:10:03Are you in the square with that?
00:10:04Certainly I am.
00:10:07Sure, it's okay with me.
00:10:08I'd like to.
00:10:09Thanks.
00:10:09All right.
00:10:10I'll go out and light up, and you make yourself at home, Jim.
00:10:14Okay, Pop.
00:10:15I'll go out and light up.
00:10:38Helmet worn by Alexander the Great.
00:10:58Hey, Pop, you even look like me.
00:11:04Yes, I can see a great resemblance.
00:11:07The noses are the same, but there's something different about the eye.
00:11:11The eye?
00:11:12Oh, yeah.
00:11:15Say, do you know what that fellow did?
00:11:17He conquered the world.
00:11:18He was just my age, too.
00:11:19That's right.
00:11:20But it didn't do him any good.
00:11:23What'd he cut the rope for?
00:11:25Oh, that wasn't just the rope.
00:11:26That was called the Glordian Knot, and it was tied in such a way that no one had been able
00:11:31to unravel it, till Alexander came along.
00:11:33I get it, and then he didn't waste time unraveling it.
00:11:35He just cut it in two, huh?
00:11:37Just like everything else he did.
00:11:38That's how he conquered the world.
00:11:40That's what I would have done, too.
00:11:41We even think alike.
00:11:44Well, while you're conquering the world, I think I'll go to work.
00:11:47You work here?
00:11:47Mm-hmm.
00:11:48I sell tickets for my uncle.
00:11:49Yeah?
00:11:50Is that all for you?
00:11:51Oh, say, he's a great guy.
00:11:53Hello, Betty.
00:11:55Hello, Pop.
00:11:56I see you've already met Mr. Carter.
00:11:59Why, yes.
00:12:00We were discussing a mutual friend.
00:12:05That's nice, indeed.
00:12:08Hello, darling.
00:12:10Well, how's it look outside?
00:12:11He is pretty well crowded tonight.
00:12:13Oh, well, come on.
00:12:14Let's go get him.
00:12:16Come on.
00:12:17Come on.
00:12:29Ladies and gentlemen, if you'll kindly step up here, give me your attention, I shall
00:12:35endeavor to explain to you the mysteries of the inferno.
00:12:38We have many things inside, ladies and gentlemen, that must be seen to be appreciated.
00:12:44Things that will point out how careful of our daily lives we should be to make them as
00:12:49perfect as possible.
00:12:51Ah, good evening.
00:12:51Won't you come in?
00:12:52Oh, no.
00:12:53Come on, big boy.
00:12:54Let's stand.
00:13:05Hey, does anybody ever pay you to get in the joint?
00:13:08Not many young people, dear.
00:13:10After all, youth is the time for fun and happiness.
00:13:13Not the serious entertainment we have in here.
00:13:16Now, look, Pop.
00:13:16Why don't you dish it out to them so they'll like it?
00:13:19You know, I used to do a little barking in my time.
00:13:21Now, we're going to put hell on a paying basis, Pop, and I'm going to show you how to do
00:13:24it.
00:13:25Come on, come on.
00:13:25Step down.
00:13:33All right, now, folks, gather round.
00:13:35Gather round.
00:13:36Gather round.
00:13:37Come on, now.
00:13:38Step up.
00:13:38Step up.
00:13:39One and all.
00:13:41Now, folks, they're on the inside.
00:13:43They're on the inside.
00:13:44Yes, sir.
00:13:45They're on the inside.
00:13:47Beautiful women.
00:13:48Beautiful women and big, strong men.
00:13:51And, folks, they're burning.
00:13:52They're burning.
00:13:53Do you hear what I say?
00:13:54They're burning.
00:13:55You see them twist and you see them squirm.
00:13:58And, ladies and gentlemen, they're alive.
00:14:00They live.
00:14:01They live.
00:14:02How do they?
00:14:02They're in a den of fire.
00:14:03And they neither walk nor talk.
00:14:05They crawl upon their stomachs.
00:14:07And, ladies and gentlemen, you see them all for a dime.
00:14:10One dime.
00:14:11Ten cents, the tenth part of a dollar.
00:14:14Yes.
00:14:15What was the name of the day we gave Julius Caesar the runaround?
00:14:18Cleopatra.
00:14:19But it wasn't Julius Caesar.
00:14:20It was Mark Anthony.
00:14:20You're right.
00:14:21And you will see Cleopatra, the girl who came from Egypt and made the romance like it.
00:14:26And her book.
00:14:28Who slipped a guy's throat and carried his head around on a platter?
00:14:31Salome.
00:14:32Gee, you know all the answers, don't you?
00:14:33Sure, smart girl.
00:14:34Come on now, folks.
00:14:35Come on.
00:14:36Get an eyeful of the beautiful women who have sinned.
00:14:38Hey, what's happened to Pop?
00:14:39He's got a barker and he's doing business.
00:14:41Yes.
00:14:42Pop, he's become up on my counter today.
00:14:44Huh?
00:14:44This is the inferno.
00:14:46The great inferno.
00:14:48Personally conducted by our friend Professor Danty here, the great Italian expert.
00:14:53Come on now, ladies and gentlemen.
00:14:54Prowl right in.
00:14:55Prowl right in.
00:14:56Meet the gentlemen personally.
00:14:58Come on, folks, and prepare for the future.
00:15:00Prepare for the future.
00:15:03And now, ladies and gentlemen, and now I have a special treat in store for you.
00:15:08I have here the original skull of Mark Antony.
00:15:11You will pardon me.
00:15:12I am a professor of anatomy, and I know that that is the skull of a child.
00:15:17You're right.
00:15:18Sure, sure.
00:15:19It's the skull of Mark Antony when he was a little boy.
00:15:26Jim, I don't want to fool these people.
00:15:29You don't have to, Pop.
00:15:30I'm doing that.
00:15:30Well, why don't I show them?
00:15:32I don't know.
00:15:33I can talk them into hell, Pop.
00:15:34You'll have to get them out of it.
00:15:35Go on.
00:15:35Go on.
00:15:36The place is packed.
00:15:37You think it'll be all right?
00:15:38Sure, it'll be all right.
00:15:39Go on.
00:15:40Go on.
00:15:40Give them the works.
00:15:42Sorry.
00:15:43We're all sold out.
00:15:47You know, you've certainly done wonders with this place.
00:15:49Thanks.
00:15:50What are you making?
00:15:52Sweater.
00:15:53Sweater, huh?
00:15:53That's what I need.
00:15:54And this is my favorite color, too, Bill.
00:15:57You think maybe you could finish it before I leave?
00:16:00You think you could stay till I finish it?
00:16:02Sure.
00:16:02It'll take you long enough.
00:16:04You know, my stomach needed that hamburger much more than my eye did.
00:16:07How about you and me having a little snack?
00:16:09I'd love to.
00:16:15Good evening, Tony.
00:16:18Oh, hello, Miss Betty.
00:16:21How's the business?
00:16:22Fine.
00:16:23How's the hamburgers?
00:16:24How do you like them this time?
00:16:26Roar.
00:16:28Now, we'll have a medium.
00:16:30Onion?
00:16:32No, you sap.
00:16:42Number five.
00:16:44Story got lost again, Miss Betty.
00:16:46Does anyone ever win, Jonesy?
00:16:48Those hands have been there ever since I can remember.
00:16:51Wait a minute, Betty.
00:16:51I'll get a hand for you.
00:16:52We'll hang it up in Pop's Museum.
00:16:54Number seven.
00:16:54Number seven.
00:16:55Come on up.
00:16:58And I hope your number wins.
00:16:59Give it a little help and maybe it will.
00:17:06Number seven.
00:17:07Hooray, I win.
00:17:08Say, you know all the tricks, don't you?
00:17:10Not all of them.
00:17:12I'm going to come over and visit you so you can teach me some of yours.
00:17:14Glad to have you, brother.
00:17:16Let's get together.
00:17:18Going to be here long?
00:17:19I'm trying to arrange it.
00:17:21Well, that's a good idea.
00:17:24Here you are, Betty.
00:17:26Give him a good home.
00:17:27I loved him like a brother.
00:17:28Wait a minute.
00:17:29Wait a minute.
00:17:30We're not going yet.
00:17:31Number six this time.
00:17:33Come on.
00:17:33We'll get a pal for him.
00:17:35Six.
00:17:37I see a man.
00:17:39I see a man.
00:17:40Everywhere in your life I see this man.
00:17:42Is he good looking?
00:17:44His face is not very clear.
00:17:46But I feel his power.
00:17:48His courage.
00:17:49His strength.
00:17:51Big guy, huh?
00:17:52He's a powerful man.
00:17:54But there is something almost childlike about him.
00:17:57His simplicity.
00:17:58He's always striving.
00:18:00Broken.
00:18:01He's trying to hide something.
00:18:04It's his tenderness.
00:18:05His capacity for love and affection.
00:18:08Who is this bird?
00:18:10Yes, who is he?
00:18:11I don't know anyone like that.
00:18:12I will see if the crystal will tell me more.
00:18:22Oh, this is fun.
00:18:24Yeah, yeah.
00:18:27I'm kind of strong for it myself.
00:18:35We're on top of the world.
00:18:39Oh, we're upside down.
00:18:41Oh, no.
00:18:44Oh, oh, oh.
00:18:47Oh, oh, oh.
00:18:48Oh, oh, oh.
00:18:52Get me out of here.
00:18:54Not till you promise to marry me.
00:18:57What?
00:18:58You've got to marry me.
00:19:03How will Pop go for a manager?
00:19:07Pop goes with the deal.
00:19:09But your brains and my personality will build up the biggest hell on earth.
00:19:16Oh.
00:19:20Oh.
00:19:21What?
00:19:38You're not about Johnson.
00:19:39All right.
00:19:39I'll do it.
00:19:39All right, Uncleте.
00:19:39All right, Mr.
00:19:43I'll do it.
00:20:15Come back!
00:20:23Here you are.
00:20:25Come on.
00:20:26Take some.
00:20:27That a boy.
00:20:29That's a boy.
00:20:30There.
00:20:31That's good, huh?
00:20:32Good.
00:20:33Good.
00:20:34Ah.
00:20:35No good.
00:20:36I don't blame...
00:20:37Why don't blame me for not eating that stuff?
00:20:39What you need is meat.
00:20:40Here.
00:20:40Here, look.
00:20:41Look, Daddy, I'm sure you're stunned.
00:20:44Here.
00:20:46That's what they used to give me when I was in the car like you.
00:20:48Oh, I wouldn't feed him that, Jim.
00:20:50That won't hurt him any.
00:20:51Well, that'll do you good.
00:20:52Aw.
00:20:53Well, that's good for you, darling.
00:20:55Jim, give him that.
00:20:56Take it away.
00:20:57Why?
00:20:58Cousin' choke.
00:21:00Oh, no.
00:21:01That's good for him.
00:21:02Well, yes, sir.
00:21:04That's good for him.
00:21:05He knows what he wants, don't you, Alex?
00:21:07Why, of course I do.
00:21:09A little bone like that isn't going to hurt you, is it, honey?
00:21:12Well, I should say not.
00:21:13I should say not.
00:21:14Your pappy knows what to give you, don't he?
00:21:17Huh?
00:21:17Huh?
00:21:18I guess your pappy knows what's good for you, doesn't he?
00:21:20Doesn't he, huh?
00:21:21Doesn't your pappy know where you going?
00:21:23Come on, you want to take a walk?
00:21:25Want to take a walk?
00:21:25Yeah.
00:21:26Look at him stand up.
00:21:27Look at him stand up.
00:21:28Hello, folks.
00:21:30Hello, Don't be.
00:21:31What's this, fella?
00:21:32What is this, fella?
00:21:32Yeah, Jim.
00:21:34Great kid.
00:21:35Getting better looking all the time.
00:21:37Sure, yeah.
00:21:37You're getting to look more like his mother every day, aren't you?
00:21:40Yes, sir.
00:21:40What's on your mind, Josie?
00:21:41I want to remind you that concessionaire's meeting tonight, Jim.
00:21:44Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:21:45Yes, we'd better be going.
00:21:46All right, we'll go right now.
00:21:47Yes, sir.
00:21:48We've got to go to the meeting.
00:21:50You'll be a concessionaire someday, won't you, though?
00:21:52Hmm?
00:21:53Yes, sir.
00:21:53Go to your...
00:21:54Don't drop him, though.
00:21:55There you are.
00:21:57There you are.
00:21:58I'll be waiting out for you, Jim.
00:22:00It's going to be pretty late.
00:22:00Yeah, maybe you'd better not wait, huh?
00:22:02No, I'll wait.
00:22:03Okay.
00:22:03Will you wait, too?
00:22:04What?
00:22:05Will you wait, too?
00:22:06No, you'd better go to bed.
00:22:07Okay.
00:22:08You both better go to bed.
00:22:09See you later.
00:22:10Come on, Josie.
00:22:11Good night.
00:22:11Good night.
00:22:13Say goodbye to Daddy.
00:22:14Bye-bye.
00:22:17Now, folks, what I've been trying to tell you sums itself up to this.
00:22:21Any sucker can put his money away in a tin can or an old sock, but that isn't being smart.
00:22:26Don't spend your life working for your money.
00:22:28Make your money work for you.
00:22:29All right.
00:22:30Now, if you commit on this new inferno concession I am building, you can't lose.
00:22:34You can't possibly lose.
00:22:36Hell is too popular.
00:22:37He's right, folks.
00:22:38Jimmy, I am with you.
00:22:40You can count me in on it.
00:22:41Me, too.
00:22:42Me, think barely a good idea.
00:22:44How much money do we need?
00:22:45Well, if we can raise $5,000, I can promote the rest.
00:22:48You can't go wrong, folks.
00:22:50With him at the head of it, you'll all make money.
00:22:53Just how are we going to make money out of it?
00:22:55For every dollar that you put in, you get a share of stock in the new company I'm forming.
00:22:59Where are you going to build it, Jim?
00:23:01Well, now, that's where you come in, Dean.
00:23:04I'm going to build it right where your chute stands.
00:23:06But you don't have to put up any cash.
00:23:08All you have to do is turn over your lease for stock.
00:23:11I can't do that.
00:23:12Every cent I have in the world is tied up in that concession.
00:23:15And I won't take a chance.
00:23:19Well, I know.
00:23:20But I've got another spot for you, Dean.
00:23:22See, you can move the place over there.
00:23:24You're not taking any chance.
00:23:26You see, Dean, you've got the only lease with space enough for us to build.
00:23:32We've really got to have you with us.
00:23:33That lease is my meal ticket.
00:23:36And I'm going to hold on to it.
00:23:39Is that final?
00:23:41Yes.
00:23:42That's final.
00:23:44Good night, everybody, and good luck to you.
00:23:51All right, all right.
00:23:52We won't worry about the location at present.
00:23:54I'll take care of that.
00:23:55Now, you folks, dig up your money, and I'll take care of all the rest.
00:23:58All right, come on.
00:23:59Let's all go over to Tony's.
00:24:00The grub's on me.
00:24:07Say, Jim, if you can't get his location, what are you going to do?
00:24:09I'm going to cut the Gordian knot.
00:24:12The Gordian knot.
00:24:13Yeah, just like that guy did.
00:24:17Well, what's that got to do with the shoot-to-shoots?
00:24:20Watch me, and you'll find out.
00:24:22Come on.
00:24:22How about a hamburger?
00:24:24Okay.
00:24:32Well, you put it over, Jim.
00:24:34I wish I knew how you did it.
00:24:36I knew Dean was behind in his rent, so I bought his lease out from under him.
00:24:39That's all.
00:24:40That's what he gets for turning tough.
00:24:42I told him to get his shoots out of here, and he hasn't done anything about it.
00:24:45So we'll start wrecking it Monday.
00:24:49Hello, Dean.
00:24:50How are you?
00:24:57What's on your mind?
00:24:58Jack, I can't move this shoots for at least a month, Carter.
00:25:01It'll take me that long to raise the money.
00:25:04You'll have to give me more time.
00:25:06I can't wait that long.
00:25:07You'll have to have it out of here by Monday.
00:25:08That's impossible.
00:25:09You can't change my plans.
00:25:11You'll break me, Carter.
00:25:13I'll lose every dollar I have.
00:25:14I'm sorry, Dean.
00:25:15Nothing personal.
00:25:16Come on, Jack.
00:25:17Take a stand with you.
00:25:19Come on.
00:25:20Come on.
00:25:21Come on.
00:25:21Come on.
00:25:21Come on.
00:25:22Come on.
00:25:22Come on.
00:25:24Come on.
00:25:25Come on.
00:25:26Come on.
00:25:26Come on.
00:25:28Come on.
00:25:32Now I know what you meant when you said you were going to cut the Gordian knot.
00:25:42Now, Pop, this is where we're going to build it.
00:25:44Ah.
00:25:45Then you've arranged everything to deem satisfaction.
00:25:47Oh, yeah.
00:25:47Sure, sure.
00:25:48That's all taken care of.
00:25:49Now, have you figured out the different spots for the grottoes, Pop?
00:25:52Here will be the grotto for suicides.
00:25:54Uh-huh.
00:25:55And here will show the punishment for treachery.
00:25:58Treachery.
00:25:58That fellow down there had a punishment for everybody.
00:26:01Sure.
00:26:01The guy had indigestion.
00:26:02A lot of tough fellows in those days.
00:26:04Human nature doesn't change.
00:26:06The sins of data's time are the sins of today.
00:26:08Ah, now, Pop, you know since the beginning of time there's only been one sin, and that's failure.
00:26:11People don't care how you win so long as you win.
00:26:13Is that right?
00:26:14You'll win all right, Jim, but I wouldn't want you to if it hurt anyone else.
00:26:18If it hurt anyone else?
00:26:18Well, you know me better than that.
00:26:19You know I wouldn't hurt anyone else.
00:26:21I wouldn't hurt a fly.
00:26:22Unless I caught him eating some of my cake.
00:26:24Now, ladies and gentlemen, crowd around, crowd around, gather around.
00:26:29I have a surprise for you, ladies and gentlemen, that will thrill you.
00:26:33It is educational.
00:26:34It is inspirational.
00:26:36It is sensational.
00:26:37And when thousands crowd to the new inferno, this is what they'll see.
00:26:43No!
00:26:44Oh!
00:26:45Oh!
00:26:50THE END
00:27:32Thank you. Thank you.
00:27:35Ladies and gentlemen,
00:27:37tonight, for the first time in the memory of man,
00:27:39you are going to see the most famous she-devils of all history.
00:27:42They have been brought out of hell a terrific expense
00:27:44on the part of the management just to entertain you.
00:27:46Ladies and gentlemen, cast your glance this way,
00:27:49and you will see the women who made strong men weak.
00:28:03There she is, folks. There she is.
00:28:06And I'll bet you can't hear soon.
00:28:08It's Cleopatra, folks.
00:28:10It's Cleopatra.
00:28:11And she's looking for a boyfriend.
00:28:15And now, look here, look here, look here.
00:28:17Salome, that twisty, wispy little dancer.
00:28:20Men lost their heads over her, folks.
00:28:24Aha!
00:28:25LaCrescia Porter,
00:28:26the girl who put the knock in knockout drops.
00:28:29Boys, when she knocked them, they stayed knocked.
00:28:33And here we have Charlotte, a corny,
00:28:36just a little milliner.
00:28:37She killed the gentleman in the bathtub.
00:28:39That's why they invented showers.
00:28:41And still they come, folks.
00:28:43Still they come, little down into history.
00:28:46Folks, this is just a sample of what you'll see on the inside.
00:28:48There are thousands of money.
00:28:51And now, ladies and gentlemen,
00:28:53I have a great treat in store for you.
00:28:56I want to introduce to you his satanic majesty
00:28:59in person, the devil.
00:29:17Watch him, folks.
00:29:18Watch him, because before your very wondering eyes,
00:29:21he invokes the powers of darkness.
00:29:45That, ladies and gentlemen, concludes our performance on the outside.
00:29:49Professor Danty himself will conduct you on the inside.
00:29:53I thank you.
00:30:05There.
00:30:06He went like Virgil and he did himself.
00:30:08I only hope I can be as good a guy as Virgil.
00:30:10I'm sure you will be.
00:30:12Ah, Pop, you look great.
00:30:13Are you ready?
00:30:13Now, just a minute.
00:30:14Don't rush us.
00:30:14Hey, we're packing him in out there.
00:30:16Jonesy's doing the barking.
00:30:17He's burning them at the stake.
00:30:18Come on, Pop.
00:30:18They're waiting for you.
00:30:19Do your stuff now.
00:30:20Thanks, Betty.
00:30:21Don't be nervous, Pop.
00:30:23Oh, he's so happy tonight.
00:30:25At last, he's realized his ambition.
00:30:27Sure.
00:30:27He's got his chance now to tell a lot of people how to keep out of trouble.
00:30:30Jim, let me stay tonight and take tickets like I used to.
00:30:32No, sir.
00:30:32No, sir.
00:30:33Not even tonight.
00:30:33You go on home with Sonny where you belong.
00:30:34Go on, Al.
00:30:36Yeah, wouldn't I?
00:30:37Give that one to Sonny.
00:31:06Ladies and gentlemen, we are now.
00:31:08We are now before the first of the nine cycles of the inferno, as the immortal Dante saw them.
00:31:14Follow me, and I will guide you where there's no sound, except sighs that make the air travel.
00:31:26There, you behold a wall of fire, where the vain and conceited are doomed to burn through all infinity.
00:31:37From here, our course leads downward to a place of woe where souls lost forever, eternal pain endure.
00:32:12Let me have a ticket, please.
00:32:15Why, Mr. D, things have changed a lot since you had your shoots here.
00:32:28And here are the trees wherein are chained the souls of suicide.
00:32:36These sad roots, boldly imprisoned, the most unhappy of the hapless dead.
00:32:44Those who laid violent hands upon themselves, destroying life as God alone controlled.
00:33:17Great place you built here, Carter.
00:33:19It's a big night for you.
00:33:23Well, where have you been keeping yourself, Dean?
00:33:25I tried to say what little I had, but it's all gone now.
00:33:31My wife died today.
00:33:34I'm sorry to hear that, Dean.
00:33:36There's nothing left for me now but hell.
00:33:38I thought you might like to watch me go there.
00:33:42Dean!
00:33:45No!
00:33:47No!
00:33:49No!
00:33:52No!
00:33:54No!
00:33:55No!
00:33:55No!
00:33:56No!
00:33:57No!
00:33:58No!
00:33:58No!
00:33:59No!
00:34:01No!
00:34:02No!
00:34:03No!
00:34:03No!
00:34:04No!
00:34:05No!
00:34:07No!
00:34:07No!
00:34:11No!
00:34:13No!
00:34:14No!
00:34:39Right this way, please.
00:34:45Oh, how do you do, Mrs. Hamilton?
00:34:47Mr. Carter is busy right now, but if you just wait a little while, I'll find out if he can
00:34:50see you.
00:34:51I won't pay him a cent more, Williams.
00:34:53I've had gambling in that club of mine for the last four years,
00:34:56and every year I've paid 15% for protection.
00:34:58Yeah, well, you've had a big year, and the price has gone up.
00:35:01Not for me it hasn't.
00:35:02I'll move that game of mine someplace where I can run it myself without interference from anybody,
00:35:06and that's final.
00:35:07Well, I suppose you know what you're doing.
00:35:09Every minute. Bye.
00:35:13Jonesy.
00:35:15Oh, hello, Jonesy.
00:35:17Hiya.
00:35:21Williams looks a little white under the gills.
00:35:24How'd you make out with him?
00:35:25I'm through letting those guys dictate to me.
00:35:27I'm going to have a casino on the high seas.
00:35:29What are you going to use for money?
00:35:30Everything I have.
00:35:31Who's waiting for me out there?
00:35:32Free society dames from the Social Welfare League.
00:35:36Looks like a touch.
00:35:37It's a bad season for touches.
00:35:40Excuse me, boss.
00:35:41Oh, hello, hello, Tony.
00:35:42Come on in.
00:35:44Well, well, well.
00:35:45How are you, boy?
00:35:46What's on your mind, Tony?
00:35:47I want the money I put in the pier.
00:35:49Well, I've already told you, Tony.
00:35:51You haven't got any money in the pier.
00:35:52You've got stock.
00:35:53But you say the stock, it used to seem like the money.
00:35:55Yeah, sure, sure it is.
00:35:56It is, but you can't spend it.
00:35:58How about all the money that we've been making?
00:36:00Well, Tony, don't you see?
00:36:01We've been putting that back into improvements.
00:36:03But when I get my money?
00:36:05When we sell the pier.
00:36:05Now, that may be a long time off, Tony, after all.
00:36:08How much money do we pay Tony for running his concession?
00:36:10Twenty-five bucks a week.
00:36:11Oh, well, raise him to thirty-five.
00:36:13How's that, Tony?
00:36:14That's fine.
00:36:15Thanks.
00:36:15Thanks.
00:36:16You're welcome, Tony.
00:36:18Stop in any time, Tony.
00:36:21Want to see those society dames?
00:36:22No, sir.
00:36:23I've got a big railroad deal on,
00:36:24and this is one fellow I can't keep waiting.
00:36:34Now, it's my turn to start it, Daddy.
00:36:36Oh, no, no.
00:36:37Let me do it once more, huh?
00:36:39No, you make it go too fast,
00:36:41and it always jumps the track.
00:36:42No, no, I won't make it go fast.
00:36:43Now, look, I'll make it go slow this time.
00:36:44Watch.
00:36:54See, you broke it.
00:36:57Oh, boy.
00:36:59Boy, that was really a wreck, wasn't it?
00:37:03See, you broke it.
00:37:04I did not break it.
00:37:06You did.
00:37:06I did not.
00:37:07You did.
00:37:07I did not.
00:37:08You did.
00:37:08I did not.
00:37:09I'll get it, Daddy.
00:37:10I'll get it.
00:37:11Oh, what is it?
00:37:14Oh, thanks.
00:37:15Oh, what is it?
00:37:18Jim, Sonny, are you two at it again?
00:37:31Oh, you're a bigger baby than your son.
00:37:34Sorry I can't stay and pray with you.
00:37:35Where you going, Pop?
00:37:36Have an appointment down the pier.
00:37:37Oh, now, Pop, that inferno could get along without you.
00:37:40You ought to retire anyway.
00:37:41Take a rest.
00:37:41If I did, I wouldn't know what to do with myself.
00:37:43Oh, nobody can run at it as well as Pop.
00:37:46Goodbye.
00:37:46Goodbye, dear.
00:37:47Goodbye, Pop.
00:37:50Ladies and gentlemen, right this way, right this way.
00:37:53Quiet on this, folks.
00:37:54Quiet on this, folks, and try your luck.
00:37:56You bet the dime and you win the half.
00:37:59You can't lose, folks.
00:38:00You can't lose.
00:38:01Come on, Jonesy.
00:38:02You take a chance.
00:38:03Okay, Son.
00:38:04Here's 10 cents on the seven.
00:38:05And I hope you win.
00:38:09You lost, Jonesy.
00:38:11Fine, boy.
00:38:11I'm proud of you.
00:38:12I couldn't have done it better myself.
00:38:13Jonesy, you ought to be ashamed of yourself teaching him to use a wheel.
00:38:16What do you want him to do, take that to school and trim the teacher?
00:38:18I was only wising him up, Chief.
00:38:20Yeah, well, don't do it.
00:38:21Okay, pal.
00:38:22Come on, son.
00:38:25I'll teach him to blow bubbles.
00:38:40My good woman, is that all you've learned from all those music lessons?
00:38:43No, I know a few more notes.
00:38:45Let's see.
00:38:46How do you like this?
00:38:52That's pretty.
00:38:56Oh, Jim, I haven't told you yet, but Sonny isn't starting tomorrow at Miss Kirkland School.
00:39:00Why not?
00:39:02Well, we had a letter from her this morning suggesting that we withdraw the application.
00:39:06What do you mean?
00:39:07Sonny's not good enough for the school?
00:39:09Well, it isn't Sonny.
00:39:10It's us.
00:39:12What's the matter with us?
00:39:14Perhaps our world isn't quite their world.
00:39:17Well, we don't worry about it.
00:39:19There are lots of other schools that are just as good.
00:39:21Oh, I see.
00:39:22You mean we haven't gotten any, what do you call them, any social background?
00:39:27Well, that must be it.
00:39:30Well, maybe we can fix that.
00:39:34Now, this is what I have in mind to help you put over your children's lunch fund drive.
00:39:38You pick out some night next month, any night you like, and I'll turn my whole amusement pier over to
00:39:44you.
00:39:46You can run it in a sort of, you know, like a society bazaar.
00:39:50Whatever you take in goes to your charity.
00:39:52Oh, that's splendid.
00:39:52But, Mr. Carter, we don't know how to run up here.
00:39:55Well, Mrs. Carter and I will be glad to help you in any way we can, or serve on your
00:39:58committee, or...
00:39:59I wonder, uh, suppose you and your husbands have dinner with us some night next week.
00:40:04We can talk over the plans then and complete all the arrangements.
00:40:07Thanks, we will.
00:40:08I've never met Mrs. Carter.
00:40:09It would be a pleasure.
00:40:10We're very grateful, indeed.
00:40:11It'll be great fun, too.
00:40:13Many thanks, Mr. Carter.
00:40:15It's quite a nice fun ride.
00:40:15It's my pleasure, I assure you.
00:40:17Bye.
00:40:17Bye.
00:40:18Yeah.
00:40:20Just a half a minute.
00:40:22The president of the Caribbean steamship companies on the wire wants to know when he can have that appointment with
00:40:25you.
00:40:26Tom, we'll meet you at the dock in a half an hour.
00:40:28Uh, meet you at the dock in a half an hour.
00:40:32Isn't she a beaut, Pop?
00:40:34500 feet long, 20,000 tons.
00:40:36I closed the deal for her today.
00:40:38Pop, this is the biggest thing I ever dreamed of.
00:40:41I'm going to make a fortune with her.
00:40:42Isn't the steamship business very risky?
00:40:44Oh, no.
00:40:45Not the way I'm going to work it.
00:40:46This is going to be the finest pleasure palace afloat.
00:40:48You mean a gambling ship?
00:40:49Sure, I mean a gambling ship.
00:40:51Certainly.
00:40:51Gambling's going to be the most profitable part of it.
00:40:53People love to gamble, Pop.
00:40:54That's part of life.
00:40:55Part of life that shouldn't be encouraged.
00:40:57Well, why, Pop?
00:40:58There's no law against it in the high seas.
00:41:00Besides, if people don't want to gamble, they don't have to.
00:41:02There'll be other entertainment.
00:41:03This ship is going to make history.
00:41:05History and annals of vice, Jim.
00:41:09We seem to be drifting farther apart every day.
00:41:12We don't see things the same way, Jim.
00:41:15Oh, I don't think that's true, Pop.
00:41:17You know, I think the world and all of you, Pop, but...
00:41:20Well, I just can't think like you.
00:41:24Excuse me.
00:41:32Hello?
00:41:33Yes, Jonesy?
00:41:35Who?
00:41:37Building inspector.
00:41:39Oh, Harris?
00:41:40Oh, sure.
00:41:40Put him on.
00:41:42Harris.
00:41:43Boss wants to talk to you.
00:41:48Hello, Miss Carter.
00:41:49Hello, Harris.
00:41:50How are you?
00:41:54The Inferno building is unsafe.
00:41:57What are you talking about?
00:41:59Been there for three years.
00:42:00It's as safe as the day we built it.
00:42:02Ah, not a chance.
00:42:06Well, I can't do that.
00:42:08Well, that means rebuilding the whole concession.
00:42:14Uh, no.
00:42:16No, I can't get down to my office today.
00:42:19Uh...
00:42:21Suppose you come up here and see me this evening, Harris.
00:42:24All right, Mr. Carter.
00:42:28Oh, at last it's finished.
00:42:31Do you like it, Tim?
00:42:32Mm-hmm.
00:42:32Great.
00:42:33Couldn't have done better myself.
00:42:34What is it?
00:42:36It's an opera bag.
00:42:37Can't you tell?
00:42:38For what?
00:42:39Well, you may not know it, but you and I are going to the opera this year.
00:42:42Once more, you're going to like it.
00:42:44I'll try anything once.
00:42:46All right.
00:42:47Try and remember what day this is.
00:42:48Day, day, day.
00:42:49Why, this is Thursday, August the 12th.
00:42:51Servants day out.
00:42:52How's that for a memory?
00:42:54Fine.
00:42:54But what happened about this time six years ago?
00:42:57Well, I don't know, Lee.
00:42:58Six years...
00:42:59Uh, began to get dark, didn't it?
00:43:00Oh, dear.
00:43:01I thought you'd forgotten.
00:43:03It's our anniversary.
00:43:05That's it, all right?
00:43:06You know, I've been trying all day to remember what I bought that for.
00:43:12Jimmy, it's gorgeous.
00:43:16You, darling, you hadn't forgotten after all.
00:43:18I'm not apt to forget the most important day of my life.
00:43:24I have a surprise for you, too.
00:43:25Yeah, I'm no kidding.
00:43:32Ever see these people before?
00:43:34Oh, that's swell.
00:43:36We were a happy couple then, weren't we?
00:43:38We're happier now.
00:43:39We've always been happy together.
00:43:41I don't know what I'd have done without you.
00:43:42You and Sonny.
00:43:43Oh, I got something for Sonny.
00:43:45Here.
00:44:02Oh, you'll love that.
00:44:07Ah, that's the fellow I get an appointment with.
00:44:09I'm sorry, darling.
00:44:10I know I shouldn't have asked him up tonight,
00:44:11but it'll only take a minute.
00:44:12All right.
00:44:25Suppose we look at it this way, Harris.
00:44:28I got you that job of yours, didn't I?
00:44:30Yes.
00:44:31Well, you wouldn't want to lose that job right now, would you?
00:44:34I couldn't afford that.
00:44:36I've got a family, you know.
00:44:37Well, Len, if I were you, I'd forget all about that report.
00:44:39I'll take care of it.
00:44:41Oh, by the way, Harris, how about buying a little present for your wife?
00:44:45Oh, I can't take that.
00:44:46Oh, sure, sure, sure.
00:44:48That's all right.
00:44:50Oh, I'm sorry.
00:44:52I thought you'd finish.
00:44:52No, no, no, come in.
00:44:53Come in.
00:44:54May I present Mr. Harris?
00:44:56This is my wife.
00:44:57How do you do, Mr. Harris?
00:44:58Mrs. Carter?
00:44:59Mr. Harris is taking up a little donation for the Newsboys fund.
00:45:02Well, Jim was a Newsboy himself fund.
00:45:04Yes, sir, and a good one, too.
00:45:05Well, thanks again, Mr. Carter, and thanks for the donation.
00:45:09That's all right.
00:45:11Mrs. Carter.
00:45:12Good night.
00:45:13Good night.
00:45:17That was nice of you, Jim.
00:45:19But then you're always doing nice things.
00:45:21Well, now, maybe you'll think this is nice.
00:45:22You know we were talking some time ago about social background?
00:45:25Yes.
00:45:26Well, we got some.
00:45:27New places to go, new things to do, new friends.
00:45:30New friends, Jim?
00:45:31Mm-hmm.
00:45:32Handpicked from the garden.
00:45:33What garden?
00:45:35The leading society buds of the town.
00:45:38Are you serious, Jim?
00:45:39Sure, I'm serious.
00:45:40In a month, you'll be surrounded by social leaders.
00:45:43Then what will I be doing with them?
00:45:44Oh, you'll see.
00:45:45You'll see.
00:46:02You'll see.
00:46:13Let me guess your correct weight.
00:46:14Come on.
00:46:15Ah, here's a young lady who's in doubt about her weight.
00:46:17My guess is 103 pounds.
00:46:21Cigarette?
00:46:22No, thanks.
00:46:22Never used it.
00:46:23You know, Carter, this idea of yours is going to double the fund this year.
00:46:27Just putting charity on a paying basis, that's all.
00:46:30By the way, you know, I've been thinking that we'd like to see you down at our club.
00:46:37With your permission, I'd be very glad to propose you for membership.
00:46:40I'd appreciate it.
00:46:41Well, it's fine.
00:46:42Here he is, folks, a gentleman from Scotland, dressed in his best Sunday coat, with the scent
00:46:48of the heather still on him and a scotch burr in his bar.
00:46:51Now, what am I offered for little Sandy McMaster?
00:46:54I'll start the ball rolling, lady.
00:46:56I bid $50.
00:46:58Only $50?
00:46:59For the Lord of Lothloman.
00:47:01Why, you old meanie, how does your wife ever live with you?
00:47:04I'll make it $75.
00:47:07Well, it looks like you have to live in poverty for the rest of your life.
00:47:10Now, gentlemen, let's get down to serious bidding.
00:47:12I'll bid $200.
00:47:14Sold to the gentleman with the white cardinia.
00:47:16So you're scotch, eh?
00:47:19Well, I'll mix you with soda and call you highball.
00:47:25My dear, you're doing marvelously.
00:47:27I don't know what we should have done without you.
00:47:30Within this cavern, imprisoned here in endless toil, with strained and broken backs, rolling
00:47:39great blocks of granite to and fro, we find the foulest creatures born on earth.
00:47:47Those who were the blasphemers and traitors to their fellow men.
00:47:51And now, ladies and gentlemen, if you will come in closer, I will explain to you further.
00:47:57Come on!
00:48:02Oh, my God!
00:48:31Oh, my God!
00:48:59Oh, my God!
00:48:59Oh, my God!
00:49:13Oh, my God!
00:49:24Oh, my God!
00:49:26Thanks, Betty.
00:49:30Oh, Jim, you're worn out.
00:49:32Why don't you come home and try and get some rest?
00:49:34Oh, no, no, I'm all right.
00:49:37Are you feeling better, dear?
00:49:39I'll be fine.
00:49:41Oh, my God, won't you come home, Jim?
00:49:49You haven't had any sleep for two nights.
00:49:51Yes, Jim, go home with Betty.
00:49:52He's been wonderful.
00:49:54No, I want to stay a little while longer.
00:49:56All right, then.
00:49:57I'll call back for you a little later.
00:49:59All right, Jim.
00:50:00Goodbye, Pop.
00:50:01Goodbye, Betty.
00:50:02Goodbye, Betty.
00:50:18You love that Danty book, don't you, Pop?
00:50:21It isn't a book, Jim.
00:50:22It's a message.
00:50:25Danty, in giving us a terrifying picture
00:50:28of the tormented souls of those who live ruthlessly,
00:50:34tried to make us realize
00:50:35that by our own actions and thoughts
00:50:39toward our fellow man,
00:50:41we make our own heaven or hell
00:50:44here on Earth.
00:50:50Like you, Danty found himself on the wrong road.
00:50:55The spirit of Virgil came to him in a vision
00:50:58and guided him through the inferno.
00:51:01Let me show you the punishments
00:51:03that were revealed to Danty
00:51:05for the evils of lust, avarice,
00:51:09blasphemy, perjury, murder, suicide.
00:51:13All right.

00:59:37No, Mr. Carter
00:59:40Inspector Harris of the Department of Public Safety
00:59:42in his written confession that you've heard read here
00:59:45stated that on the evening of August 12th
00:59:47he went to your home
00:59:48in the capacity of both friend and official
00:59:52to advise you of the unsafe condition
00:59:54of your inferno concession
00:59:56and that you then and there
00:59:58threatened him with the loss of his position.
01:00:01That's not true.
01:00:02And they're taking advantage of his fear
01:00:03you forced him to accept a bribe of $2,000
01:00:06to declare your building safe
01:00:08so that you would not be forced to expend
01:00:10the sum of $50,000 for its repair.
01:00:13Is that not true?
01:00:15It is not.
01:00:17But you had known Inspector Harris for some time, hadn't you?
01:00:20Yes.
01:00:21You even secured him his position.
01:00:23I did.
01:00:25Now, Mr. Carter, I want to ask you again.
01:00:30Was Inspector Harris in your home on the evening of August 12th?
01:00:39He was not.
01:00:43That's all?
01:00:49Your Honor, the defense rests.
01:00:52Has the prosecutor any witnesses in rebuttal?
01:00:56Only one, Your Honor.
01:00:57I would like to call the wife of the defendant to the stand.
01:01:01Your Honor,
01:01:03the defense objects to the prosecutor
01:01:05calling Mrs. Carter to the stand.
01:01:07She's being called as a surprise witness
01:01:08and is it the duty of this court to advise her
01:01:10as to her constitutional right
01:01:12to refuse to testify against her husband
01:01:14if she does not wish to do so.
01:01:17Mrs. Carter, will you please step forward?
01:01:36It is within your right to refuse to testify, Mrs. Carter,
01:01:40if you so wish.
01:01:46I'll testify.
01:01:47We further object.
01:01:51We withdraw objection.
01:01:57You raise your right hand, please.
01:01:58You solemnly swear to tell the truth,
01:02:00the whole truth, nothing but the truth,
01:02:02so I help you, God.
01:02:03I do.
01:02:10What is your name?
01:02:12Elizabeth Carter.
01:02:14Elizabeth Carter.
01:02:14You are the wife of James Carter,
01:02:15the defendant in this case?
01:02:19I am.
01:02:21And were such on the night of August 12th of this year?
01:02:24I was.
01:02:26Do you recall your activities on that night?
01:02:29Yes, very well.
01:02:31I was at home.
01:02:32You are certain of that?
01:02:34Very certain.
01:02:35Now, Mrs. Carter,
01:02:36will you please tell the jury what, if anything,
01:02:40transpired that night to impress this particular date on your mind?
01:02:50It was our wedding anniversary.
01:02:53My husband and I spent a quiet evening at home.
01:02:59Who else was present?
01:03:01No one.
01:03:01It was the servants' night out.
01:03:04Now, Mrs. Carter,
01:03:07I want you to answer my next questions as carefully and as thoughtful as you can.
01:03:12Were you at any time that night away from Mr. Carter?
01:03:24Was there in that house at any time during the evening
01:03:28any other person than those you've already mentioned?
01:03:31No.
01:03:35Did you see Inspector Harris in your home on August 12th?
01:03:39I did not.
01:03:40Could Inspector Harris have been in your home without your knowing it?
01:03:44No.
01:04:03Anna, put Sonny's clothes in this case.
01:04:05It won't hold all of his things, Mrs. Carter.
01:04:07Well, pack what he needs, and I'll spend for the rest of them later.
01:04:11Come on, Sonny, and help me pack.
01:04:12Can I take my music box, too?
01:04:14Sure.
01:04:24Ready.
01:04:45Betty, I'm sorry that happened today.
01:04:49They acquitted me, thanks to you.
01:04:51It was your testimony that did it.
01:04:54My testimony?
01:04:55You mean my perjury.
01:04:57I was a liar and a cheat.
01:05:00What I did today, I did only to keep my son's father out of the penitentiary.
01:05:04That was all.
01:05:06You won in court today, Jim.
01:05:08But I lost.
01:05:10I lost everything that makes life fine and decent.
01:05:15The lie I told didn't hurt that poor fellow Harris.
01:05:18He's beyond that.
01:05:21But it hurt me.
01:05:22Well, I won't stay here to be hurt again, and I won't permit our boy to be hurt by the
01:05:26things you do.
01:05:28Betty!
01:05:29Wait a minute!
01:05:31Why, Betty, you can't leave me like this.
01:05:33You don't think I wanted to drag you into this thing, do you?
01:05:35Well, the first time I'm seeing you as you really are.
01:05:39I must have been blind.
01:05:41I never realized before how far you'd go for power and money.
01:05:45But I didn't want the money for myself.
01:05:47It was for you and for Sonny.
01:05:48That's not true, and you know it.
01:05:49Why, of course it's true.
01:05:51You don't think I wanted Sonny to go through all the things that I had been through, do you?
01:05:55I wanted him to start at the top, to have the best of everything that money could buy, the best
01:05:59school.
01:05:59Don't you see, darling?
01:06:01I wanted him to have all the things that I had missed.
01:06:04Money can't buy his happiness any more than it's bought ours.
01:06:07Well, we were happy, weren't we?
01:06:11Yes, I thought we were.
01:06:14But now that's finished.
01:06:16Betty, how can you say that, Betty?
01:06:19I don't understand you.
01:06:21Don't you see, dear, I didn't do anything that any other businessman wouldn't have done.
01:06:25Don't you see that?
01:06:27Yes, I see.
01:06:29I also see now what your steamship paradise means.
01:06:40Jim, you're going your own way because nothing can stop you, but you're going alone.
01:06:58Daddy!
01:07:05Why, Mr. Ray?
01:07:06Come on, we're going.
01:07:08Sit down, son.
01:07:14Now, look, son.
01:07:16You and Mommy are, uh, you're going away on a nice long vacation, see?
01:07:21You, you've got to be a big strong man and take good care of her.
01:07:26You'll do that, won't you?
01:07:28Well, I want you to come, too, Daddy.
01:07:32I know you do, son.
01:07:33Uh, Daddy wants to come, too, but...
01:07:37Well, I just can't come this time, see?
01:07:53That's enough on the bar now.
01:07:55Put the rest in the hole.
01:07:57Reynolds, tell Mr. Carter I'd like to show him the chart room.
01:08:01Very well, sir.
01:08:02All right, Mr. Wallace.
01:08:04Our oil lines are practically new.
01:08:06He's installed with the latest oil burner equipment, using shuttle valve key pumps.
01:08:11Well, you seem to know a lot about boats, Mr. Carter.
01:08:13I should.
01:08:14I was a stoker seven years ago.
01:08:15Oh, you're joking, aren't you?
01:08:16I am not.
01:08:17I used to be an assistant engineer, got into a little jam down in Australia and had to stoke
01:08:21my way back.
01:08:21Well, that's interesting.
01:08:23Hi.
01:08:25What is it, Reynolds?
01:08:26The captain would like to speak to you.
01:08:29Ask him to come down here.
01:08:30Tell him I want him to meet Mr. Wallace.
01:08:32Very well, sir.
01:08:34Now, this machinery has all been overhauled, Mr. Wallace.
01:08:38How's that transfer from working, Mike?
01:08:40Fine, Mr. Carter.
01:08:42I hope all this stuff is boring you.
01:08:44No, not at all.
01:08:45This is the engine.
01:08:47Well, I never realized it took so much machinery.
01:08:50They're on a ship.
01:08:51Bill's pump's okay now?
01:08:52Yes, sir.
01:08:53I just finished repacking it.
01:08:55Eight bells, Jack.
01:08:56How about a little one?
01:08:57Thank you for reminding me, Mr. Carter.
01:08:59What are the engines running for?
01:09:00You're not leaving today, are you?
01:09:01No.
01:09:02No, we're not leaving in New England.
01:09:04That's what I want to talk to you about.
01:09:05I need $100,000 to get underway.
01:09:08I'll put the ship up as security.
01:09:09Is it clear?
01:09:10Absolutely.
01:09:11And every cent I got in the world is in it.
01:09:12Otherwise, I wouldn't be talking to you.
01:09:14No, no, no.
01:09:14That's too much money to tie up in a proposition like this.
01:09:18All right.
01:09:18I'll tell you what I'll do.
01:09:20I'll cut you in for 10% of the profits.
01:09:22That's better, Carter.
01:09:23I guess we'll get together.
01:09:24All right.
01:09:33Betty.
01:09:35Betty.
01:09:36Yes, Pop?
01:09:37Jim called up again this morning while you were out.
01:09:40Why don't you talk to him?
01:09:42No use, Pop.
01:09:44It's all over.
01:09:45My attorneys notified him yesterday that I was leaving for Reno to start divorce proceedings.
01:09:50I'm sorry it had to end this way.
01:09:52Jim has so many fine qualities.
01:09:55It's a pity we couldn't bring them out.
01:09:57We tried to for years.
01:09:59No, if he ever does change, it will have to come from within himself.
01:10:11Third Marine Union has joined the other two.
01:10:13The whole coast is affected.
01:10:15That's very unfortunate for Mr. Carter.
01:10:17Not nearly so serious for him as it is for the industries.
01:10:20Thousands of tons of cargo are tied up on the docks.
01:10:27Mr. Carter, I'm afraid...
01:10:28Yeah, yeah, I know what you're going to say.
01:10:29This boat sails tomorrow as per schedule.
01:10:31Strike or no strike.
01:10:32But we have no crew.
01:10:33There are hundreds of men around the dock who jump at the chance.
01:10:35But it's a chance we shouldn't take.
01:10:36Now, look, 500 people have paid to make this trip.
01:10:38All right, sir.
01:10:39We'll get a crew.
01:10:40But they'll be undisciplined and not dependable.
01:10:42Never mind about that.
01:10:43Get them.
01:10:43Very well, sir.
01:10:44The Paradise will sail tomorrow night.
01:10:46That's the way to go.
01:10:51Now, please, Mrs. Carter, it's quite possible that your son is only lost.
01:10:54And we've got every available man in the department looking for him.
01:10:57But Sonny never wandered away before.
01:11:00Now, please.
01:11:01I'm quite sure everything is going to be all right.
01:11:04We'll phone you the very minute we have any news.
01:11:06Thank you, Inspector.
01:11:08Good night, Mr. Quaid.
01:11:12Lady, don't you think Jim ought to know about this?
01:11:15Of course, I should have thought of that.
01:11:17I'll send him a wireless immediately.
01:11:39Stingy paradise!
01:11:41Hey, iron pork fist.
01:11:43Take a little break now.
01:11:44Ha, ha, ha, ha.
01:12:15Oh, Johnson.
01:12:16Yes.
01:12:16Have a seat, Father.
01:12:17How good to be there.
01:12:18Thanks.
01:12:19All right, come on, Lord.
01:12:20Come on, Lord.
01:12:21Come on, Lord.
01:12:23Come on.
01:12:24Oh, come on here.
01:12:28Come on.
01:12:31Hey, come on.
01:12:35Get me.
01:12:36Hey, hey.
01:12:37You got any more water?
01:12:38No, you're not.
01:12:40I got any more water.
01:12:41Oh, my God.
01:12:48How are things, Reynolds?
01:12:50Not so good.
01:12:51Only three hours out and the passengers are wetter than the ocean.
01:12:55Wildest lot I've ever seen.
01:12:58How's the crew behaving?
01:13:00Just a lot of landlubbers, thoroughly incompetent.
01:13:03Well, what could we expect?
01:13:05Say, wait a minute.
01:13:06You guys need a nerd, boys.
01:13:08I snitched out a bottle from a stowa.
01:13:10And a bottle of stowa.
01:13:12Oh, by the way, Carter, I've been wanting to ask you about this painting.
01:13:16Is one of your ancestors?
01:13:17No, no, no.
01:13:18That's his poor friend.
01:13:20He picked me up one time when I was down and out.
01:13:22He's stuck by me ever since.
01:13:24Great guy.
01:13:27Come on, you want to see that dance up soon, must you?
01:13:28Oh, sure, yes.
01:13:29Yes.
01:13:46Come on, you want to see that dance up soon.
01:13:55If you go, Farmer, you're in your body.
01:13:56Worcester, you're in your body.
01:13:56Yeah, yeah.
01:14:11Um, basically, we don't want to see that dance.
01:14:11I'm trying to perform school for you, Bilder, so be t klug.
01:14:11You're in your house!
01:14:11Well, but este is yours.
01:14:19Oh
01:14:41Oh
01:15:11Oh
01:16:01Sonny
01:16:04Daddy
01:16:09You should not come in now, Daddy
01:16:11You spoiled everything
01:16:13I'm a surprise for you
01:16:15Sonny, how did you
01:16:15What?
01:16:17You've brought me
01:16:20Aren't you glad to see me, Daddy?
01:16:22Oh, of course I'm glad to see you
01:16:28Hello, give me the radio room
01:16:29I'm glad to see you, Daddy
01:16:33Hello, radio room
01:16:34This is Mr. Carter
01:16:36Take this message to Mrs. Carter
01:16:42This is James Carter
01:17:00Why, I knew how unhappy you were when the little fellow was away from you
01:17:04So I thought I'd bring him back to you
01:17:06This is the last place in the world for him to be
01:17:09Now you go on downstairs and take care of those guests
01:17:12I'll see you later
01:17:23Come on now, Sonny
01:17:26Daddy's gonna take care of you until Mommy gets here
01:17:28We'll see how my pajamas fit you, huh?
01:17:30That'll be funny
01:17:31Yeah, that'll be funny
01:17:42Oh, look!
01:17:45It's a hot seat
01:17:47It's a hot seat
01:17:48It's a hot seat

01:18:01I'm gonna help him anyway
01:18:03Let's have a good drink
01:18:05Fire!
01:18:06Ah!
01:18:08Ah!
01:18:08Ah!
01:18:09Ah!
01:18:11Ah!
01:18:11Ah!
01:18:12Ah!
01:18:13Ah!
01:18:14Ah!
01:18:14Ah!
01:18:15Ah!
01:18:16Ah!
01:18:18Ah!
01:18:19Ah!
01:18:21Ah!
01:18:29Ah!
01:18:31Ah!
01:18:32Ah!
01:18:33Ah!
01:18:35Ah!
01:18:36Ah!
01:18:36Ah!
01:18:37Ah!
01:18:39Ah!
01:18:40Ah!
01:18:41Ah!
01:18:42Ah!
01:18:43Ah!
01:18:43Ah!
01:18:44Ah!
01:18:55Oh, come on, son, this little fire drill.
01:18:58What's a fire drill?
01:18:59Oh, it's just fine fire.
01:19:00Oh, goody, I'll get fire.
01:19:02Look, that's not fire on this suit.
01:19:03Yes, it is.
01:19:04Yes, it is.
01:19:04That's the kind of way on the boat, son.
01:19:06Come on, let's go.
01:19:07That's the kind of way on the boat, son.
01:19:08That's right.
01:19:09It's right for the wind.
01:19:21Hello?
01:19:22Hello?
01:19:24Hello?
01:19:25The engine room doesn't answer.
01:19:27The crew's probably besotted.
01:19:28Get down there immediately.
01:19:29They'll take charge, gentlemen.
01:19:30I'm going to get out of here.
01:19:50No, not yet.
01:20:01No!
01:20:02Hello!
01:20:03Oh, my God.
01:20:53All right, sonny, your daddy will be right back.
01:20:56There's only one chance, Carter.
01:20:58We've got to prevent that fire from creeping up.
01:21:00Well, how can we do that?
01:21:01We're about two miles offshore.
01:21:03I've got to beat you.
01:21:04Turn first.
01:21:05I can steer it from the wheel after.
01:21:07But someone's got to keep that engine on, boy.
01:21:09I'll see what I can do.
01:21:10Look.
01:21:11Watch the indicators of the right signals.
01:21:27Take care of him, don't you?
01:21:29Try to get it back to his body.
01:21:35Take care of him.
01:21:54Take care of your heads.
01:21:56I know you are a good boy.
01:21:59You know?
01:21:59Come on, get back to your station!
01:22:05Come on, let's go!
01:22:33Come on, get down below!
01:22:47Come on, get back on your job!
01:22:51Come on, get back on your job!
01:22:53Come on, get back on your job!
01:23:17Come on, get back on your job!
01:23:17I'll be all right, Mr. Carter.
01:23:19Let me in the room.
01:23:30Ventano! Ventano!
01:23:32Hello! Hello!
01:23:34Carter! Are you there?
01:23:39Carter!
01:23:41Black King!
01:23:43Reynolds is going!
01:23:45I'll handle the controls!
01:23:47I need more orders!
01:23:48We've got to turn the ship around.
01:23:50Back her all the way to the beach to keep the fire from spreading.
01:23:52I'll give you my orders on the indicator.
01:24:02Hello!
01:24:03The circulating poppers stopped!
01:24:05Hold on!
01:24:15He's out of commission!
01:24:16The discharge valve is frozen!
01:24:19We have to work back!
01:24:38Not it remains!
01:24:41Theóstico dancers are fast!
01:24:42How was her?
01:24:42He wanted to visitors?
01:24:42We're holding hands andIF economists.
01:24:45For me, Tony!
01:24:46Neverworld.
01:24:47To see!
01:24:47It's a CSV.
01:24:47No!
01:24:48No!
01:24:58I tried to get destroyed!
01:24:59Plus one.
01:26:19I can't hold on any longer.
01:26:23I can't hold on any longer.
01:26:25I can't hold on any longer.
01:27:02I can't hold on any longer.
01:27:25I can't hold on any longer.
01:27:27Jim.
01:27:37Oh, Doc, Hub.
01:27:39Jim.
01:27:50Is Sonny all right?
01:27:52Yes.
01:27:53Yes.
01:27:57Betty, Pop was right.
01:28:00I've been through a hell of my own making, and I dragged you into it.
01:28:07I need you, Betty.
01:28:10I haven't anything to offer you now but just my love.
01:28:14Oh, darling.
01:28:16That's all I ever wanted.
01:28:17I'm dead.
01:28:18Oh, dear.
01:28:29Oh, dear.
01:28:35Oh, dear.
01:28:45THE END
