Phantom of the Paradise

SWAN-At least 你 can talk. Plug yourself
into the console to sing. 你 really think she's that good?

WINSLOW-Too good for you.

SWAN-I'll hire her anyway.

WINSLOW-She could be my voice now.



SWAN-Could she? Really? Stop terrorising the Paradise
and rewrite your cantata...for Phoenix. We'll both win. 你 get your cantata sung 由 the right singer, I open Paradise. We can't waste time. Lock yourself up in here and write.

WINSLOW-I could write for her.

SWAN--it'll be performed here live. Phoenix will star.

WINSLOW-My cantata. For her.

SWAN-I'll get fantastic musicians.
The hall has...

WINSLOW-I don't trust...

PHILIBIN-My name's Arnold Philbin. I scout talent for Swan.
He's interested in your stuff.


WINSLOW-The Swan?

PHILIBIN-That's right.He 说 your song could be big.

WINSLOW-Really?



PHILIBIN-I was right there.



WINSLOW-If he produced my music,
the world would listen.



PHILIBIN-The game plan exactly,
but 你 need a lot of work, polishing.



WINSLOW-I know. I have a long way to go.



PHILIBIN-Do 你 have any tapes of your stuff?

WINSLOW-No, but it's all written down here.



PHILIBIN-Give us two 或者 three good up numbers.

WINSLOW-Two 或者 three? This cantata is 200 或者 300 pages,
and I haven't finished yet.
