金钱世界 All the Money in the World Movie Script

Back to bed, you little monsters.

Little Paul peels back one eye of Gail's mask and lets thesunlight in. She recoils.

GAIL (CONT'D) You made your point. But no pancakes.

INT. APARTMENT KITCHEN -- MORNING

QUICK CUTS:

Gail fixes pancakes for the children and a cupof strong black coffee for herself, cleans up emptywineglasses and ashtrays from the party the night before, downs two aspirin, puts a samba LP on the Hi-Fi, washes up, dresses the children, pulls on capris, teases her hair, anddoes a quick little bossa-nova with the children.

GAIL:

Now, you'll have to amuse yourselvesquietly. I have work to do this morning and I am not to be disturbed.

INT. LIVING ROOM -- DAY Gail works with pastels at an easel, copying from a posedphoto of a model in a cocktail dress (the music PLAYS OVERfrom the previous scene, and throughout this whole sequence).

It's catalog work, but Gail's got a gift for line and gesture: she has style. Her kids draw on the floor alongside her, copying everything she does. Little Paul especially.

INT. KITCHEN -- DAY Gail is on the phone, a utility bill in her hand.

GAIL:

Look in your file and you'll findthat we've been very good customersof Southern California Edison. We're good people.

7.

In the sunlight we can see the words PAST DUE written there.

GAIL (CONT'D) And I have a little boy who'sconcerned that if the lights aren'ton for Christmas Santa might notfind his way here.

Everything about Gail -- her Seven Sisters accent, herfinishing school posture -- reeks of the former debutante.

GAIL (CONT'D) If we could make the minimum paymentwe wouldn't need an extension. We do want to pay something, though.

We notice who the bill is addressed to:

JOHN PAUL GETTY, JR. PHONE REP (O.S.) Tell me, Mrs Getty. What does yourhusband do?

GAIL:

He's a poet. A good one.

PHONE REP (O.S.) Any relation to the oil man Getty?

She considers her answer carefully.

GAIL:

Distant.

PHONE REP (O.S.) (laughs) Must be, right?

EXT. BEVERLY HILLS APARTMENT DUPLEX -- DAY Gail piles all three children into a Ford Fairlane. She holds the electric bill in her hand, along with her drawings.

INT. SPIEGEL CATALOG PUBLICATIONS -- ART DEPARTMENT -- DAY Gail hands over her drawings. The girl at the desk pays $25apiece, in cash. Gail wouldn't dream of counting the money.

INT. SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON -- DAY Gail counts the money. She stuffs it in the tray at thepayment window. She thumbs through what's left.

EXT. RODEO DRIVE, BEVERLY HILLS -- DAY Gail walks through Beverly Hills with her three children intow. She passes a store window and stops. It's Givenchy.
