Creation is, all else 00:00:43.225 --> 00:00:49.470 is not. What is not creation is graham crackers. Let 00:00:49.590 --> 00:00:56.085 it all crumble to feed the creator. The artist is all, 00:00:56.205 --> 00:01:02.545 others are not A canvas is a canvas or a painting. 00:01:02.925 --> 00:01:06.805 A rock is a rock or a statue. 00:01:07.765 --> 00:01:13.125 A sound is a sound or is music. 00:01:15.705 --> 00:01:20.245 A creature is a creature or an artist. 00:01:25.405 --> 00:01:32.405 Where are John, Joe, Jake, Jim, Jerk?

I was looking at Carla's picture. 00:03:13.805 --> 00:03:17.445 Do I pay you to look at pictures? Come on, get to work. I was just looking. 00:03:17.565 --> 00:03:21.007 There are empty cups all over the place.

A couple of hustlers. 00:04:19.485 --> 00:04:24.325 One of them's short, fat, brunette, named Skinny. The other one was short also. 00:04:24.445 --> 00:04:26.197 She was bleached and skinny. 00:04:26.317 --> 00:04:30.805 Name of fat? Probably. I didn't get it. They didn't give any pictures, though. 00:04:30.925 --> 00:04:32.605 I guess you can keep an eye on them. 00:04:32.725 --> 00:04:33.726 Okay. Any heads? 00:04:34.026 --> 00:04:36.905 Well, Jerry Sachs looked like he was straight. 00:04:37.025 --> 00:04:38.715 I'm sure he's on it anyway. 00:04:38.790 --> 00:04:41.770 Didn't see any pushes around the place. Lou said he'd check out on Jerry. 00:04:41.820 --> 00:04:44.065 He'll sound him out later if he gets any higher. 00:04:44.185 --> 00:04:45.687 I guess that's about it. 00:04:46.245 --> 00:04:50.125 Okay, Art. Go on home and get a good night's sleep, you think. 00:04:50.705 --> 00:04:51.605 Okay. So long. 00:04:54.575 --> 00:04:57.716 Everyone listen to my new poem. Do you think they really heard it? 00:04:57.836 --> 00:05:01.413 I heard it, Mr. Brock. Thank you, Walter. I'm sure you did. 00:05:01.533 --> 00:05:04.564 Bring on the multitude with a multitude of fishes. 00:05:04.684 --> 00:05:08.382 Feed them to the fishes for liver oil to nourish the artist. 00:05:08.565 --> 00:05:11.290 That was word for word. Is it? I've forgotten. 00:05:11.410 --> 00:05:15.793 You mean you don't remember your own poem? I refuse to say anything twice. 00:05:15.913 --> 00:05:18.045 Repetition is death. I don't get it. 00:05:18.237 --> 00:05:22.305 When you repeat something, you are reliving a moment, wasting it. 00:05:22.380 --> 00:05:24.176 Severing it from the other end of your life. 00:05:24.226 --> 00:05:27.505 I believe only in new impressions, new stimuli, new life. 00:05:27.625 --> 00:05:30.905 I thought you believed that life is an obscure hobo bumming a ride on a... 00:05:31.025 --> 00:05:34.045 I do believe that, Walter, but I also believe creative living. 00:05:34.165 --> 00:05:38.420 To be uncreative, you might as well be in your grave or in the army. 00:05:39.485 --> 00:05:42.985 They tried to draft me once. I couldn't pass the test. 00:05:46.425 --> 00:05:48.490 Walter, Leonard's looking at you. 00:05:51.285 --> 00:05:53.885 He's just about gone. Walter has a clear 00:05:54.005 --> 00:05:56.892 mind. One day something will enter it, feel lonely 00:05:57.012 --> 00:06:03.765 and leave again. Yes. Cats, yes, if you want to know how beatniks live, William 00:06:03.885 --> 00:06:07.073 and me will show you we'll introduce you to some wild 00:06:07.193 --> 00:06:10.080 ones. You may even discover an artist of your own. 00:06:10.200 --> 00:06:13.305 And how much is that going to cost us? What cost? 00:06:13.425 --> 00:06:16.553 A couple of bucks. You want to meet some beatniks? Oh, 00:06:16.673 --> 00:06:17.785 no, it's the artist. 00:06:17.905 --> 00:06:19.705 I'm just crazy about artists. All 00:06:19.780 --> 00:06:21.576 that is comes through the eye of the artist. 00:06:21.626 --> 00:06:24.465 The rest are just blind fish swimming in a cave of aloneness. 00:06:24.585 --> 00:06:27.953 Oh, you must be an artist, and working as a busboy, too. 00:06:28.073 --> 00:06:32.284 Feed him that he will be satisfied. The artist is. All others are not. 00:06:32.404 --> 00:06:36.245 That's most intriguing. Are you a painter? Well, no, I work... 00:06:36.365 --> 00:06:41.177 I'm working on something that's not ready yet. What is it, man? Finger painting? 00:06:41.297 --> 00:06:45.505 Draw me a picture of a house, Walter. Make some smoke coming out of the chimney. 00:06:45.625 --> 00:06:48.604 I am working on something. I'll show you soon.

Oh, if you were my son. 00:07:58.420 --> 00:08:01.563 Why don't you let me fix you a nice bowl of soup? It won't take but a minute. 00:08:01.613 --> 00:08:05.405 Oh, it's okay. I can fix myself something. Besides, I got something important to do. 00:08:05.525 --> 00:08:09.185 Oh, say, Walter, did you see anything of Frankie tonight when you went out? 00:08:09.305 --> 00:08:10.625 I didn't see him at all. 00:08:10.745 --> 00:08:14.205 Well, if you do, tell him I got a nice, fresh piece of halibut for him. 00:08:14.325 --> 00:08:18.665 Tell him that?

I've got to contribute. 00:20:46.945 --> 00:20:48.822 You don't have to do anything. 00:20:49.525 --> 00:20:50.425 Wait. 00:20:51.545 --> 00:20:53.673 Wait, there is one thing I can do. 00:20:54.005 --> 00:20:55.185 One little thing. 00:20:56.185 --> 00:20:57.437 Don't leave, Walter. 00:20:58.725 --> 00:21:00.540 I want to give you something. 00:21:01.005 --> 00:21:03.571 Something that will make you remember me. 00:21:08.265 --> 00:21:09.642 Put it in your pocket. 00:21:11.145 --> 00:21:12.146 Now go, Walter. 00:21:13.165 --> 00:21:15.125 Don't look back.

Did you see my cat? 00:23:08.085 --> 00:23:11.005 Yeah, I saw your cat. I also saw that chick lay these on you. 00:23:11.125 --> 00:23:15.505 Oh, that was Naolia. She's a nice girl. She's kind of strange, though. 00:23:15.715 --> 00:23:18.485 I guess she figures I get headaches or something. 00:23:18.605 --> 00:23:22.105 Okay, Walter, who's your connection? Connection? Yeah, connection. 00:23:22.225 --> 00:23:25.855 Who do you score from? Where do you buy your horse? Horse? 00:23:26.045 --> 00:23:30.105 Horse, junk, white stuff, heroin. Is that what that is? 00:23:30.225 --> 00:23:33.505 I've never seen any of that before. I always thought that was expensive. 00:23:33.625 --> 00:23:35.985 Yeah, Walter, that can be real expensive. 00:23:36.105 --> 00:23:38.365 Gee, well, wasn't that nice of Naolia to give me 00:23:38.485 --> 00:23:40.613 that expensive horse?

You're under arrest, Walter. 00:23:47.885 --> 00:23:51.325 Under arrest for what? Possession of narcotics. For me? 00:23:51.445 --> 00:23:56.025 What are you talking about? Walter, I got you cold. Now you just come along quietly. 00:23:56.145 --> 00:23:59.229 I didn't do nothing. And Naolia would give me those. I didn't ask her for it. 00:23:59.279 --> 00:24:02.544 I didn't even know what was in that. All right, you can tell them that downtown. 00:24:02.594 --> 00:24:04.485 Now let's go.

Noise, Mrs. Swickard? What noise? 00:24:54.385 --> 00:24:58.605 Don't tell me I didn't hear a racket. Are you sure you're all alone? 00:24:58.725 --> 00:25:00.728 I'm always alone, Mrs. Swickard. 00:25:00.935 --> 00:25:03.705 Walter, have you been talking to yourself again? 00:25:03.825 --> 00:25:06.445 Well, I guess maybe I have, Mrs. Swickard. 00:25:06.565 --> 00:25:09.785 Somebody's got to. Walter, you know, what you need is a girl. 00:25:09.905 --> 00:25:14.205 But she doesn't have to be pretty. Just so long as she takes good care of you. 00:25:14.325 --> 00:25:17.549 Well, I can take real good care of myself, Mrs. Swickard. Yeah, I can see that. 00:25:17.665 --> 00:25:21.365 Look at this pad. It's terrible. When did you ever clean it up? 00:25:21.485 --> 00:25:25.745 And when did you change these sheets last? They look like they're alive. 00:25:25.865 --> 00:25:28.477 Now, Mrs. Swickard, I gotta meet some friends in a little while. 00:25:28.552 --> 00:25:31.246 And I gotta take a shower.

Saying, go down, you murderer, go down 00:28:46.965 --> 00:28:50.331 for the murder of his own true wife 00:28:50.451 --> 00:28:56.029 and the killing of his own child. The jury found him guilty 00:28:56.149 --> 00:29:00.765 and the hanging judge, he smiled. And dig the fuzz. 00:29:02.305 --> 00:29:05.616 What do you suppose they want? You, man, 00:29:05.736 --> 00:29:09.645 you. Hey, maybe they're looking for old Walter.

A true creator above mere mortals. 00:29:34.765 --> 00:29:36.017 What's the big idea? 00:29:36.645 --> 00:29:37.545 Idea? 00:29:38.865 --> 00:29:41.118 I was just telling Walter the truth. 00:29:41.385 --> 00:29:43.985 Man wanted to pay me $100 for the cat. 00:29:44.185 --> 00:29:47.251 In fact, he's taking it home to show to his wife. 00:29:48.005 --> 00:29:53.085 Proves that I underestimated Walter's ability. His work has enormous realism. 00:29:53.205 --> 00:29:55.831 You can hardly tell it from the real thing. 00:29:55.951 --> 00:30:00.285 Boy, that sounds like a real put -down. Get off Walter's back, Leonard. 00:30:00.405 --> 00:30:01.305 Why on his back? 00:30:01.825 --> 00:30:03.264 They're not very funny. 00:30:03.805 --> 00:30:05.185 I'm not trying to be. 00:30:07.185 --> 00:30:09.500 Walter, what are you gonna make next? 00:30:10.045 --> 00:30:12.745 A dog, maybe.

Great. 00:30:22.740 --> 00:30:26.705 What is it? It's a full-length life 00:30:26.825 --> 00:30:32.325 -size figure. Crazy. What is it called? Murdered Man. 00:30:32.445 --> 00:30:38.670 when do we get to see it Oh anytime hey that's a pretty far -out name for a statue 00:30:38.790 --> 00:30:41.145 I saw a statue once. It was called 00:30:41.265 --> 00:30:43.765 the third time Phyllis saw me she she exploded. 00:30:43.885 --> 00:30:46.725 What kind of a statue was that? I don't know. 00:30:46.845 --> 00:30:50.638 It was made out of driftwood and dipped in fluoric acid. Very wild. 00:30:52.665 --> 00:30:54.042 What's wrong, Leonard? 00:30:55.645 --> 00:30:59.085 Nothing. Nothing at all. It's the food in this dump. 00:30:59.285 --> 00:31:04.166 Oh, man, you should try the Sorel sewer. They got wheat germ bagels. Too much. 00:31:05.525 --> 00:31:11.825 Excuse me, please.

Oh, thank you, sir. 00:32:13.885 --> 00:32:18.078 I think I've made a bargain. Call me when you're ready. Good night. 00:32:21.445 --> 00:32:22.345 Vladimir. 00:32:23.585 --> 00:32:24.605 You feel better? 00:32:25.495 --> 00:32:27.905 Listen, I'm going over to Walter's later 00:32:28.025 --> 00:32:30.673 after the place closes to see murdered man. 00:32:30.793 --> 00:32:32.517 You feel up to coming along? 00:32:34.025 --> 00:32:40.718 And a washer behind his ear. And the prison bell was tolling, 00:32:40.838 --> 00:32:48.565 But Tim Evans didn't hear Saying, go down, you murderer, go down 00:32:55.665 --> 00:32:59.212 Look at the size of it. Well, it's not really that big. 00:32:59.332 --> 00:33:01.137 I got it on kind of a stamp. 00:33:01.425 --> 00:33:02.614 Well, let's see it. 00:33:03.376 --> 00:33:06.505 I'm a little nervous. I never did a person before. 00:33:06.625 --> 00:33:09.925 You can do anything if you set your mind to it. It's hard in here. 00:33:10.045 --> 00:33:14.425 You want me to open a window? Oh, come on, Walter. Take off the sheet. 00:33:24.185 --> 00:33:25.311 Don't you like it? 00:33:29.465 --> 00:33:31.718 Walter, it's a masterpiece. 00:33:32.465 --> 00:33:34.968 I've never seen anything like it before. 00:33:37.125 --> 00:33:40.004 And I hope I never see anything like it again. 00:33:41.105 --> 00:33:42.085 Neither do I. 00:33:44.385 --> 00:33:46.845 It's hideous and it's eloquent. 00:33:48.005 --> 00:33:52.125 It expresses modern man and all his self -pity. 00:33:53.305 --> 00:33:57.665 How did you ever find that in yourself, Walter? Well, it wasn't easy. 00:34:00.845 --> 00:34:02.535 What's the matter with you? 00:34:03.225 --> 00:34:07.042 Nothing. Nothing at all. I've never seen anyone so squeamish. 00:34:07.765 --> 00:34:11.565 What's your opinion, Leonard? Don't ask me. Oh, come on. 00:34:12.105 --> 00:34:14.170 Now, even you must see its value. 00:34:14.290 --> 00:34:17.085 Do you think that you or I could have conceived of such a thing, 00:34:17.205 --> 00:34:18.645 much less executed it? 00:34:19.865 --> 00:34:23.905 Well, then admit it. It's a work of genius. I admit it. 00:34:25.165 --> 00:34:27.856 Then let's take it down to the yellow door. 00:34:28.325 --> 00:34:30.925 No. Why not? I'll tell you. 00:34:31.865 --> 00:34:35.025 But you, you cover it up again, please, huh? Please. 00:34:40.305 --> 00:34:44.373 Thank you. What is all this nonsense? Why do you want to hide it? 00:34:46.245 --> 00:34:47.809 Well, I've been thinking. 00:34:48.785 --> 00:34:52.425 I didn't realize how much talent Walter actually had. 00:34:53.705 --> 00:34:57.647 It would be wrong to show his pieces one at a time. Dead wrong. 00:34:57.805 --> 00:34:58.705 You're right. 00:34:59.245 --> 00:35:01.373 He should build a collection first. 00:35:03.265 --> 00:35:06.571 Yeah, that's the idea. Maybe when it's big enough, 00:35:06.691 --> 00:35:10.334 We can have a show a show just for me. No Not exactly. 00:35:10.454 --> 00:35:12.545 I mean, you take years and years. 00:35:14.525 --> 00:35:19.785 It's getting hot again What it would take you years to make that many statues, 00:35:19.905 --> 00:35:21.665 but your work would be featured. 00:35:21.785 --> 00:35:25.825 It's a wonderful idea Walter It's the only way to gain recognition. 00:35:25.945 --> 00:35:29.185 All the big art critics and art dealers will be there. It'll be an event. 00:35:29.305 --> 00:35:32.345 Yes, then we can unload. We'd sell this stuff for a lot more. 00:35:32.465 --> 00:35:36.785 But the show, how soon can we go? Don't rush things. It takes time. 00:35:37.025 --> 00:35:41.218 But first of all, you've got to stop making these horrible statues. 00:35:42.027 --> 00:35:46.300 Carla and I will guide you. Maybe you can turn to freeform. Freeform? 00:35:46.350 --> 00:35:48.840 Well, that's the movement today. With his talent for realism? 00:35:48.890 --> 00:35:51.565 But you can see the direction his realism takes. It's unhealthy. 00:35:51.685 --> 00:35:55.625 But you said I was a genius. I don't want to be a busboy anymore. 00:35:55.745 --> 00:35:57.245 Yes, maybe you've got a point there. 00:35:57.365 --> 00:35:59.685 You shouldn't keep working at the Yellow Door. 00:35:59.805 --> 00:36:02.725 Look, I'm sure that man is going to buy you a dead cat. 00:36:02.845 --> 00:36:05.098 So here, here's your fee in advance. 00:36:05.365 --> 00:36:08.807 $50.

Good. 00:39:09.057 --> 00:39:13.625 Why is the busboy sitting here? I'm not the busboy anymore. That's right. 00:39:13.745 --> 00:39:16.311 Walter has become a sculptor. Oh, really? 00:39:17.165 --> 00:39:22.465 I'm a model, you know. I only charge $25 an hour. Would you like to do me? 00:39:23.925 --> 00:39:29.085 I just might. Never mind that. Walter's gonna try freeform. There you go again. 00:39:29.425 --> 00:39:32.116 I may take my business to the Sorrel sewer. 00:39:32.236 --> 00:39:34.905 As a matter of fact, I was going to suggest to Walter 00:39:35.025 --> 00:39:39.343 that he try a female figure as a change from the violent death theme. 00:39:39.505 --> 00:39:43.145 You really should, Walter. You know what? If you like, 00:39:43.265 --> 00:39:45.092 I'll be your model for free. 00:39:45.212 --> 00:39:50.445 I couldn't. Not you. Man, if you're going to be an artist, you've got to do nudes. 00:39:51.365 --> 00:39:57.225 Nudes. Right, right, right. Ain't nobody an artist unless he does nudes. 00:39:57.275 --> 00:40:01.216 Will you get them out of here before we wind up in night court? 00:40:01.336 --> 00:40:04.985 Oh, let's change the subject. I'm sick of hearing about sculpture. 00:40:05.105 --> 00:40:09.265 Nobody knows how to do that anymore, much less the busboy from the yellow door. 00:40:09.385 --> 00:40:12.552 Who do you think you're talking about? Don't shout at me. 00:40:13.765 --> 00:40:14.845 I don't like you. 00:40:15.945 --> 00:40:18.196 Nobody asked for your opinion, Walter. 00:40:18.316 --> 00:40:20.448 You're just a simple little farm boy 00:40:20.568 --> 00:40:23.385 and the rest of us are all sophisticated beatniks. 00:40:23.505 --> 00:40:25.605 That's all, man. Let's split. it. 00:40:26.525 --> 00:40:27.425 Yeah, man. 00:40:28.925 --> 00:40:30.489 I gotta make me some air. 00:40:32.305 --> 00:40:35.280 I see you. You made them leave. What did I do? 00:40:35.400 --> 00:40:38.763 The first beneficial service of your benighted life. 00:40:38.883 --> 00:40:41.406 It proves we're all good for something. 00:40:41.605 --> 00:40:44.984 Are you saying that this busboy is better than I? Yes. 00:40:45.104 --> 00:40:47.545 I think this whole bit about him being a sculptor 00:40:47.665 --> 00:40:49.565 is just a big put -on for my benefit. 00:40:49.685 --> 00:40:52.376 That's not true. I am a sculptor. Oh, yeah? 00:40:53.165 --> 00:40:57.170 Prove it. Make something Get something out of this. There. Hand. 00:40:57.804 --> 00:41:00.840 That isn't a real hand. If you were a sculptor, 00:41:00.960 --> 00:41:02.865 you'd create something for me. 00:41:02.985 --> 00:41:05.925 A harpoon would be very nice.
