The Dolly Sisters Page #3

Synopsis: In 1904, Uncle Latsie comes to New York from Hungary with two little nieces, who immediately take to cafe dancing. In 1912 they're still at it, but to pay Uncle's card debts they decide to go into vaudeville. Singer Harry Fox, whom they meet en route, schemes to get them an audition with the great Hammerstein; but their resulting success takes them far out of Harry's league. Lots of songs with a little story.

just you and me?

Oh, Rosie and I

could never separate.

Why-Why we've been an act

ever since we were kids.

But I mean,

a really classy act.

Evening clothes,

Fifth Avenue dresses.

Why, pretty soon,

we'd really be on the bill at Hammerstein's.

Oh, I'm sorry, Harry.

And I'm flattered that you want me...

but, well, you ought to know

what a sister act means.

W-We're tied together somehow,

and nothing else counts.

No matter how

attractive it seems.

- Well, anyway, thanks for the attractive.

- Quiet!

Elmer wants to sleep.

Whew! All that rush

for nothing.

You might have at least waited

long enough to say good-bye.

- Just common courtesy.

- Oh, he's common enough as it is.

Here, you watch the bags

while I go get the tickets.

Psst! Hey, Jenny.

Jenny. Psst.

Hey, come here.

Oh, Harry.

I didn't mean to rush off

without saying good-bye.

Yeah, sure. Say, Jenny,

there's something I got to tell you.

I'm gonna miss you.

Oh. Why, you hardly

know me though.

Yeah, sure, I know,

but I know how I feel.

I'm gonna miss you too,

I guess.

Don't you know?

Gee, I never thought falling in love

would be like this.

It's so- so sudden and-

and all mixed up with trains and things.

So, Jenny, look,

if I don't get to New York right away...

- give me a break and wait for me, will ya?

- Oh, of course I will, Harry.

That's all I wanted to know.

Jenny?

- Good-bye.

- Jenny!

Somebody could have stolen our bags.

Now what have you been up to?

Oh. Oh, uh,

my handkerchief blew away.

There isn't a breeze.

For a lost handkerchief,

you certainly have a peculiar gleam in your eye.

Stanton, Alford, Dover

and Hoboken. All aboard!

Oscar Hammerstein's office.

No, Mr. Caruso,

he's not in.

That could never happen to me

in Saint Petersburg. I'll never wait.

I'm so sorry.

And whether you're playing or not,

keep working.

Practice your singing every minute

and practice your dancing.

Well, uh,

aren't you Flo Daly?

- Gee! I read where Ziegfeld's gonna star you.

- Oh.

We really appreciate every bit

of advice you've given us, Miss Daly.

Well, don't appreciate it. Use it.

Live with and for your work.

That's the only way

you'll get ahead.

That's what I do

every minute I'm awake.

Miss Daly! The bookie says

the horses are at the post.

Oh, tell him hold on.

I'll be there in a minute.

And remember, girls, concentrate on your work.

Nothing else matters.

Oh.

- Mademoiselle Polaire.

- Oh, he's expecting you. Will you come in, please?

Oh!

- The famous Polaire.

- Yeah.

Oh, excuse-

Jenny!

Hello, Harry.

Oh, gee, I'm glad to see you.

- Hello, Rosie. How are you?

- I was fine.

Say, I- I wrote you, but you must have moved,
