DOYLE:
Who is that guy?
RUSSO:
Policy man in Queens.
DOYLE:
What about the last of the big-time
spenders. You make him?
RUSSO's eyes come off the show. It is a direct line from
DOYLE's gaze to the round, ruddy and arrogant face of SAL
BOCA, the apparent host of the table of EIGHT MEN AND WOMEN,
the Men in dinner jackets with ties tucked under the collars
of blue or white lace-trimmed shirts, the Women in a mixture
of pant suits and Catskills cocktail party dresses, their
hair coiffed towers.
RUSSO:
No, you?
DOYLE:
Hunh-uh. Check the bread. He
spreads it like the Russians are in
Jersey.
RUSSO:
He probably sells insurance. Owns
a chicken farm in Hackensack.
8.
Zoom in slowly on SAL as he deals tips and orders. Through
DOYLE's eyes, we go from Guest to Guest at SAL's table,
taking apart their manners and styles as they talk and
laugh, lost in the show chatter.
DOYLE finishing his drink, still looking at the table.
DOYLE:
Dig who's just come over. The
creep on the end.
The camera pans down the table to dig the "creep on the end."
RUSSO (VO)
Jewish Lucky from the Bronx... He
don't look the same without a
number across his chest.
DOYLE close in right profile, SAL's table in the far blurred
background.
DOYLE:
Whatta you say we wait and give him
a tail?
RUSSO:
Give who a tail?
DOYLE:
The greaser with the blonde.
RUSSO:
What for -- you wanna play Hide the
Salami with his old lady?
DOYLE:
Come on -- just for fun --
INT/EXT. DOYLE'S CAR - NIGHT
The view from the back seat of DOYLE's car. DOYLE is at the
wheel, RUSSO packed uncomfortably into the corner at DOYLE's
right. Seventy-five yards away on the other side of the
street the canopied entrance of the Club. A Continental is
parked in front of the club. The DRIVER leaning on a fender
talking with the DOORMAN. DOYLE frisks his own pockets for
a cigarette, coming up with a collection of laundry slips,
crumpled notes, toothpicks and matches.
