DOYLE:
Never trust a n*gger.
RUSSO:
He coulda been white.
6.
DOYLE:
Never trust anybody. You goin' sick?
RUSSO:
Not a chance.
RUSSO nods in acceptance of the remark. The easy, synical
rapport between them is obvious: they are partners in a
business where somebody is always getting hurt and pain is
part of the inventory.
DOYLE:
Let's popeye around the Chez for a
half hour, catch the end of the
show and a couple drinks.
RUSSO:
Some other time Jimmy, I'm beat.
DOYLE reaches into the right side pocket of BUDDY's suitcoat
for a cigarette and matches. He lights up two in the pause,
sticks one in RUSSO's mouth.
DOYLE:
Come on -- one drink. Whatta you
say?
RUSSO:
Drink this.
DOYLE:
Whip it out.
THE TITLES COMMENCE
THE FRENCH CONNECTION
Titles over a close shot of a chorus line, with lots of tits
and ass and lean, long legs in a brassy blare of music. We
zoom back to the area where DOYLE and RUSSO are beginning to
occupy a table. RUSSO takes the seat on the right, eyes
immediately on all that ginch, while DOYLE standing, gives
their order. We do not hear the dialogue but DOYLE asks
RUSSO what he wants BUDDY looks up and says "Cinzano." DOYLE
turns and says "Two of these." DOYLE slips into the chair
opposite RUSSO and the titles roll on. Unlike RUSSO who is
concentrating on the girls, DOYLE is digging the room and
the people who occupy the tables in it, as if he is the sort
of man who cannot relax until he knows who is around him,
why they are there.
7.
A long view from DOYLE's position of the room, a quick
certain survey that stumbles twice; on laughter that seems
too raw and then over a flurry of activity by WAITERS and
CAPTAINS serving a table on the main floor. DOYLE's
attention is apprehended by the noise and activity that
emanate from the same large table.
DOYLE:
I make at least two junk connections
at that table in the corner. The
guy is the stripe combo, I know him
too.
RUSSO:
Hey, I thought we come for a drink.
