That Frank

[TYLER]
I said, "Frank, this picture is a watershed…"

[TERRY]
I said, "Frank, one day you'll run my studio…"

[SCOTTY]
I said, "Frank, will you listen to that response?"

[DORY]
I said, "Frank really knows what the public wants"

[TYLER]
I said, "Frank, this picture is a watershed…"

[MARY, spoken]
Know what I'm having?

[RU, spoken]
What?

[MARY, spoken]
Not much fun.

[FRANK, spoken]
Party!

[GROUP I]
That Frank—

[JEROME]
The guy is too much—

[FRANK, spoken]
Hey, the party's outside!

[GROUP II]
That Frank—

[FRANK, spoken]
Did you like the picture?

[TERRY]
The platinum touch

[FRANK, spoken]
How about more Champagne?

[SCOTTY]
He has taste, he has talent—

[TERRY]
Is he the best?

[TYLER]
Plus a fine head for business

[KT]
The man is blessed

[GUESTS]
That Frank!

[RU, spoken]
I wrote the screenplay for Frank's movie.

[MARY, spoken]
Your secret's safe with me.

[GUESTS]
That Frank—

[RU, spoken]
So what do you do?

[GUESTS]
He's full of advice

[MARY, spoken]
I drink.

[GUESTS]
That Frank—

[RU, spoken]
No, what do you really do?

[GUESTS]
And God, is he nice!

[MARY, spoken]
I really drink.

[KT]
What a friend—

[MEG]
What a host—

[BUNKER]
And his work is great

[TERRY]
Has a wife who is gorgeous—

[MEN]
A son who's straight

[GUESTS]
He's the type you could easily learn to hate
That Frank!

[FRANK]
Who says, "Lonely at the top?"
I say, "Let it never stop!"
It's our time
Coming through
All our dreams
Coming true
Working hard
Getting rich
Being happy—
There's a switch!

[GROUP I]
That smile—

[BUNKER, spoken]
Don't you miss writing music?

[GROUP I]
He's hot but he's cool

[FRANK, spoken]
That was the old Frank Shepard.

[GROUP II]
What style—

[JEROME, spoken]
This guy's the American dream!

[MEG]
And what a great pool!

[GROUP I]
If you had no idea what charisma meant—

[GROUP II]
And you just can't be jealous, he's such a gent—

[GUESTS]
He's the kind of a man that you can't resent
That Frank!

[MEG, spoken]
Franklin?

[FRANK, spoken]
Oh, Meg, this is Mary Flynn. Mary is my deepest, closest, best friend in all the world.

[MARY, spoken]
Congratulations on the movie. Your performance will stay with me for a long time.

[FRANK, spoken]
We go way back.

[MARY, spoken]
But seldom forward.

[TYLER]
I said, "Frank, you're coming down to Mexico…"

[JEROME]
I think Frank is moving back to Paramount…

[MARY]
These are the movers
These are the shapers
These are the people
Who fill the papers

[GROUP I]
Mexico…

[MARY]
These are the friends of Frank

[GROUP II]
Moving back to Paramount…

[MARY]
Each one a perfect blank

[GUESTS]
When you see a movie that successful
What can you say?

(spoken)
Congratulations!

[FRANK, spoken]
Thank you!

[MARY]
These are the movers
These are the shapers
These are the people
Who give you vapors…

[FRANK]
Twenty years ago, who'd have guessed
Who'd have guessed
We'd be standing here?
God, we would have been so impressed!
Now we're here with the most—

[GROUP I]
Mexico…

[FRANK]
—Brilliant minds on the coast

[GROUP II]
Moving back to Paramount…

[FRANK]
And notice who is their host

[GROUP I]
Mexico…

[GROUP II]
Beautiful, Frank!

[GROUP I]
Acapulco, Mexico…

[GROUP II]
Beautiful, Frank!

[GUESTS]
When you've made a movie that successful
Where do you go?

[FRANK, spoken]
Uh—Paramount!
Here's to us

[MARY, spoken]
Who's like us?

[FRANK & MARY, spoken]
Damn few.

[JEROME, spoken]
Now I heard a reliable rumor that you're selling the Malibu house?

[FRANK, spoken]
You don't want it. The place doesn't even have a pool.

[MARY, spoken]
No pool?! Trash it!

[FRANK, spoken]
Let's have some coffee, Mary.

[GUESTS]
Poor Frank—

[MARY, spoken]
I never drink coffee.

[GUESTS]
He handled that well

[MARY, spoken]
Caffeine isn't good for you.

[GROUP I]
That Frank—

[FRANK, spoken]
Look, I'm aware this was just a formula picture.

[GUESTS]
He's loyal as hell

[FRANK, spoken]
But my next movie—you wait.

[MARY, spoken]
I gave up waiting.

[GUESTS]
He's polite and considerate, rain or shine

[MARY]
It began when I tasted communion wine—

[GUESTS]
That Frank

[FRANK]
Who says, "Mustn't go too far"?
I say, "Look at where we are!"
It's our time
Coming through
I say, "Good—
Me and you"
I say, "Roll!"
I say, "Ride!"
I say, "Hey, there's food outside!"

[GUESTS]
That Frank!

[TERRY, spoken]
Frank's movie was fun!

[GUESTS]
You'd think he'd relax

[TYLER, spoken]
Frank knows what the public wants.

[GUESTS]
Not Frank—

[BUNKER, spoken]
And Frank made a star.

[GUESTS]
He's laying new tracks

[KT, spoken]
I love a "movie-movie"!

[GUESTS]
If you had no idea what charisma meant—
And you just can't be jealous, he's such a gent—
He's the kind of a man could be President
That Frank!
That Frank!
That Frank!

That Frank!
