Good Morning, Babylon Page #3

---

Look! If you leave your number

I will try to get in touch.

You are calling from where?

Hollywood?

To make elephants?

For whom?

Griffith?

One moment, hold on.

No good! They got as many

workers as they need.

They just want the two foremen!

Alright, if I happen to find anything,

who should I call?

Ah, sent them to Frisco...

- And then?

- They want Teodoro and Amilcare.

We can find them!

They sail for Seattle in an hour.

Maybe we can stop them.

We'll be too late.

Better.

If they've left,

we can try ourselves.

Then my shoe came untied...

Both mine are too.

God, I'm sorry!

But I'm glad too!

- Well, you guys are...

- The foremen the director wants!

The director's name is Griffith, right?

Your names?

Amilcare Martini.

Teodoro Benvenuti.

Okay, hop in "paisans"!

The day after tomorrow

you'll be in Hollywood.

Don't forget to fill up in Salinas!

I leave you here. The tram will take

you straight to Mr. Grass's office.

He's the production manager

of Mr. Griffith. See you around!

My sons, oh my sons!

Yes, my sons I awaked you.

Where are we?

Alright, all the dead get down!

Perfectly still!

The King to the throne!

Slowly, slowly!

Get the sons on horseback!

Alright, roll it!

Action!

Go, my sons!

I shall wait for you here.

We have been defeated

but when you return

you will win back my kingdom.

Look, Andrea.

The old king is crying.

You kids new?

- Have a piece!

- Thank you!

Please, listen, give us a chance!

We're dancers.

Yes, and very good ones.

We can't be extras all our lives!

Look girls, it's not up to me.

Even you don't believe us.

Well, can you do a split?

It's Griffith!

He's trying a new machine.

Where's Griffith?

It's the man upon the crane

with the big white hat.

Good morning to you, Mr. Thompson.

We are the Italians!

Destroy it! Mr. Griffith says he

doesn't even want the tail!

So you two are the

famous Italian builders?

You're here to make elephants

for "Intolerance".

Not one of our drawings has met with

the approval of Mr. Griffith.

But you Italians think

you can do better.

Great.

Remember what they did

up in Frisco!

I know, I know.

I see Hollywood agrees with you

my dear architects.

You look thirty years younger...

We thought we...

Can we sit down?

Have you been in the service?

Then on your feet. About face!

Forward, march!

Actors and extras on set!

Take your positions!

No, enough! Come on!

Hurry up, please!

You two, girls!

Aren't you extras?

Extras! Extras!

I'm sorry I got you in trouble!

I always go and open my big mouth.

Steve, finish up here by tonight.

Tomorrow I'm pulling it.

I got to get the new

sets for Griffith ready.

You're still here.
