RITA:
I don't think so.
SIDNEY:
You're sure. Find out for me.
RITA:
(with a nod)
Sidney, can I talk to you a minute?
Rita wears an injured air. Sidney, preoccupied with other
worries, callously ignores it.
SIDNEY:
Is Frank D'Angelo around?
RITA:
At the bar - Sidney...
But Sidney has moved away from her.
D'ANGELO
He is at the bar, listening with satisfaction to the music,
watching the performers and studying the audience. Sidney
comes up behind him. We see Sidney's eyes flick from
D'Angelo towards the bandstand and back again. Then, as he
takes the stool next to D'Angelo, he assumes a different
manner, a sulky resentment. D'Angelo sees Sidney.
D'ANGELO
(to the bartender)
Joe, give my nephew a drink.
SIDNEY:
(sullen)
Your nephew doesn't want a drink.
D'Angelo is still watching the quintet. The guitar can be
heard again.
ANOTHER ANGLE:
Shooting past D'Angelo and Sidney towards the bandstand.
D'ANGELO
That's a lollipop that, boy. The
kid is only great.
SIDNEY:
And with ten percent of his future,
you're great, too, Frank.
D'Angelo looks quickly at Sidney, sensing the undercurrent.
Then he turns his back on the musicians, remarking in a
quiet tone.
D'ANGELO
Went over to Philly yesterday an'
seen the folks...it's nice you send
them the fifty a month...
SIDNEY:
(after a pause)
See my mother?
D'ANGELO
(shaking his head)
I only had a few hours.
A glum moment. Frank sips his highball: Sidney lights a
cigarette, animosity on his face.
D'ANGELO
Thanks for the publicity spread you
got the boys for the benefit
tomorrow.
SIDNEY:
(begrudgingly)
Robard's my client. I did it for
him and his club, not your boys.
Frank again notes Sidney's resentful manner. Sidney looks
towards the musicians.
SIDNEY:
(quietly)
