Filth and Wisdom Page #3

Synopsis: In London, A.K. is a Ukrainian Gypsy, seeking fame as a rocker, doing odd jobs: he's a dom, drives a hack, and runs errands for his neighbor, a poet full of self pity since going blind. A.K's flatmates are Holly, a ballerina who becomes a reluctant stripper in need of coaching, and Juliette, a pill-popping assistant at a pharmacy run by an Indian tired of his marriage. Juliette, estranged from her family, dreams of helping the poor children of Africa; A.K. has a crush on Holly; Juliette's boss lusts after her. Her hapless sister calls from time to time. The poet despairs. Is there a route from filth to wisdom for these souls? Can they find fun and fulfillment? A.K. provides philosophical comment.

- Hi.

Hi.

You ain't as bad as you think you are.

You should see the slappers

that turn up here.

At least you've got class. Ah.

Look, all you got to remember

is one, Japs tip best,

two, what happens in the club

stays in the club,

and three, stay away from teenagers.

- They never have any money.

- I just can't get my head around the pole.

You'll get the hang of it, Mary Poppins.

It ain't your head you gotta get round it.

Who's there?

Andre?

Andre.

Good, up with the knees.

It's true.

There is duality in everything.

But perhaps I should ask myself

this question:

Am I consciously or unconsciously,

actively or passively,

collaborating at this very moment

with some behavior

that is destined to wreak havoc

on another human being?

And good.

That's better, yes. chapp

to escape, not these mini little things.

That's better. Right open.

Thanks.

Oh.

Typical bloody Jew.

You know, Juliette, there are over

You obviously haven't been

reading the bloody news.

Is that so? Well, why don't you tell me

the bloody news?

Last night on Channel 4, documentary,

Really, really fantastic.

Oh, bloody chutya.

I told her not to come to work.

One moment, please.

Just get the f*** out of here.

Just get the f*** out of here!

- F***!

- Get off me.

Get the f*** out of here!

- Sorry we're late, sir.

- Sit down, girls.

- Has everybody done their prep?

- Yes, sir.

Rothschild hasn't.

"Sir." What, "sir"?

No, sir.

You, Rothschild.

What is 947 divided by the

square root of power of 10?

Don't know, sir.

- You don't know.

- No.

Well, come out here, guttersniper.

Assume the position.

The other position, imbecile.

The other position, you moron!

What is the square root

of 947 divided by the square root

of power of 10?

- Four.

- No.

Three?

- Twenty?

- No.

- Thirty-four?

- No.

Forty-two.

Right.

- Right?

- No.

Sixteen.

Sit down.

"I traveled the world looking

for lovers of the ultimate beauty

and never settled in."

"I..."

"I've traveled the world looking

for lovers of ultimate beauty."

"I've traveled the world

looking for lovers of the ultimate beauty

but never settled in."

I am a wonderlust king.

Let me be gone

Whoo!

I've traveled the world

I stay on the run

Let me out

Let me be gone

Beat-up road sign

History of time

I am a wonderlust king

So, what's your schedule like

for today, then?

I thought I'd take another look

at a few more properties.

How many times do you have to look at

a property before you start to develop it?

Lot of details to work out.

Square footage,

investment value, neighborhood.

Will you put that f***ing

newspaper down?

That's better. Now...

You were saying?
