{3955}{4049}So, anyway... anyway,|this guy comes home, you see,
{4053}{4110}and he finds his wife with his best friend.
{4113}{4187}And the husband says|"Harry, how could you do this?"
{4190}{4313}And the wife, she says "Why should you|complain? Harry didn't do it to you!"
{4396}{4490}- What did I tell you? Isn't he a card?|- Class. Real class.
{4493}{4552}With his gift of the gab|he could go places.
{4556}{4624}Hey, pal, you oughta quit|that punk job of yours.
{4627}{4711}- Why don't you join a sales outfit?|- It's no use, boys.
{4714}{4815}Every time I'm in town, I ask him to go|on the road for our company. Right, pal?
{4818}{4891}Sure, Ed, sure. Listen, fellas, listen.
{4894}{5008}Two dames at a bar. One dame says to|another "If I don't get to bed pretty soon,
{5011}{5080}I'm goin' home and go to sleep!"
{5136}{5203}Would you make it a merry Christmas|for some poor orphan?
{5206}{5234}Here you are, lady.
{5238}{5295}That oughtn't to be allowed|in a place like this.
{5298}{5382}- Religion don't belong in a speakeasy.|- I know it's Christmas, but...
{5385}{5470}Mac, wait a minute. Excuse me,|Sister. Excuse me. Excuse me.
{5473}{5534}Don't tell me we're gonna let|these angels of mercy
{5537}{5603}go away from here|empty-handed on Christmas Eve.
{5606}{5674}This joint is the home|of fine bourbon and fast women,
{5677}{5759}and we need plenty of religion|to keep 'em both in line. So, come on.
{5762}{5885}Get it up, now. Come on. Oh, come on.|A little action here. What's the matter?
{5945}{5979}Oh.
{6033}{6079}Hey!
{6082}{6163}Hey, Lord? Can you hear me|up there, Jesus?
{6166}{6233}You didn't think we'd forget|your birthday, did you?
{6236}{6348}There you are, Jesus. And if I had|any more, you'd be welcome to it.
{6372}{6437}{Y:i}- Thank you, brother.|-
{6440}{6560}The Bible says "Never let your left hand|know what your right hand is doing."
{6563}{6661}What's your beef, mister?|You ashamed of bein' a Christian?
{6664}{6780}I see. You think religion is for suckers|and easy marks and mollycoddles, huh?
{6783}{6856}You think Jesus was some kind|of a sissy, eh? Let me tell you,
{6859}{6953}Jesus wouldn't be afraid to walk in here|or any speakeasy to preach the gospel.
{6957}{7063}Jesus had guts! He wasn't afraid|of the whole Roman army.
{7066}{7145}Think that quarterback's|hot stuff? Well, let me tell you,
{7148}{7256}Jesus would have made the best little|all-American quarterback in history.
{7259}{7391}Jesus was a real fighter. The best little|scrapper, pound for pound, you ever saw.
{7394}{7472}And why, gentlemen? Love, gentlemen.
{7475}{7569}Jesus had love in both fists.|And what is love?
{7587}{7730}Love is the mornin' and the evenin' star|that shines on the cradle of the babe.
{7733}{7788}Hey, sinners!
{7792}{7886}Love is the inspiration|of poets and philosophers.
{7940}{7999}Love is the voice of music.
{8003}{8112}I'm talkin' about divine love,|not carnal love.
{8115}{8200}{Y:i}- That was a beautiful sermon, Parson.|-
{8203}{8248}- Beautiful.|- Thank you, sister.
{8251}{8326}- I gotta get home to the little woman.|- Here you are, Sister.
{8329}{8409}Merry Christmas. Thank the Lord,|Sister. Thank the Lord.
{8412}{8468}- Gotta go. Gotta catch a rattler.|- Me too.
{8471}{8563}Time to take up a little female|companionship. Wait a minute.
{8567}{8624}That's a swell preacher act you got, pal.
{8628}{8749}I gotta catch a rattler myself. Ed,|we still got the whole night ahead of us.
{8753}{8845}Whatever you do, never lose|that little black address book.
{8848}{8897}Merry Christmas!
{8926}{8960}Mr Gantry?
{9064}{9136}And a merry Christmas to you too, sir.
{9139}{9212}You'll have to chalk it up.|The rest of these drinks, too.
{9215}{9255}Charity.
{9258}{9325}I oughta get myself a tambourine.
{9349}{9430}That's the trouble with this stinking worid.
{9433}{9486}Nobody loves nobody.
{9524}{9598}Mac... the lady's glass is empty.
{10249}{10288}OK.
{10387}{10455}- Long-distance phone call.|- What time is it?
{10458}{10519}The phone call you made|to Mrs Gantry last night?
{10522}{10565}Oh. Yeah, thanks.
{10568}{10649}- Merry Christmas, Mr Gantry.|- You too.
{10652}{10721}And a happy New Year, Mr Gantry.
{10817}{10911}Well, I'll take...|I'll take care of you downstairs.
{10915}{10979}Get my bags out now.
{11143}{11192}Hello? Hello?
{11503}{11560}{Y:i} Ready with your call, Mr Gantry
{11564}{11648}Hello? Oh, hello, Mom. Merry Christmas.
{11652}{11713}Me, Elm!
{11717}{11770}Just a sec, Mom.
{11882}{11941}I just got back from church myself.
{11945}{11996}I prayed for you too.
{12000}{12054}How'd you like my present?
{12057}{12106}You sure? Gee, that's funny.
{12109}{12173}Well, maybe it got held up|in the holiday rush.
{12176}{12299}I just called up to wish you merry|Christmas, that's all, to tell you I love you.
{12346}{12399}Don't start crying.
{12402}{12444}Ma...
{12447}{12574}I know I promised, but I couldn't get away.|I've been busy. Yeah, business.
{12577}{12698}Guaranteed and delivered. I'll be home|next Easter. My absolute promise.
{12702}{12751}Ma, don't cry.
{12896}{12984}Ma, I gotta go. I really gotta go, Ma.|I gotta catch a train.
{12988}{13067}Sure. Sure. I'll talk to you. Take care.
{13070}{13109}Bye.

{20363}{20475}- You'd better get at this while it's still hot.|- Thank you, brother.
{20582}{20680}Would you look at this filthy magazine,|Reverend? Shameful. Shameful.
{20683}{20795}Burn, ye naked Jezebel, burn.|Like a blindin' flash.
{20798}{20866}"Suddenly there shined round|about him a light from heaven,
{20869}{20924}- and he heard a voice say unto him..."|- "Saul. Saul."
{20928}{20984}- "Why persecutest thou me?"|- Saul of Tarsus.
{20987}{21042}Acts, chapter nine.
{21046}{21102}"And straightaway he preached.|Christ is the son of God."
{21105}{21181}- "And all who heard him were amazed."|- "Amazed."
{21198}{21266}Excuse me, but you sound|like a preacher.
{21286}{21391}- Great black-eyed peas, Reverend. Great.|- If you'll be needing a place to sleep...
{21394}{21488}Thank you kindly, but as soon as|I haul these ashes, I'll be on my way.
{21491}{21614}{Y:i}- Well, God be with you, brother.|- Put in a good word for me, brother.
{21774}{21829}- Back again, Mr Gantry?|- Yes, indeed.
{21832}{21901}Come spring, come the drllmmer man.
{21933}{22023}Good morning, good morning,|good morning - and a hot morning it is.
{22026}{22106}Sam, as the blind man said|to the elephant, long time no see.
{22109}{22150}Last March.
{22153}{22233}I got a great new item for you -|an electric toaster that pops.
{22236}{22288}- No.|- An egg beater that's a lulu.
{22291}{22340}No sale.
{22391}{22444}This little devil's|gonna clean up America.
{22448}{22513}You sold me nine of them|vacuum cleaners last year.
{22516}{22584}There they are, all nine of 'em.
{22587}{22675}Well, no harm done. How about|a free snort on the house?
{22679}{22778}{Y:i} That's how you|stuck me the last time.
{22827}{22928}Ever hear the one about the missionary,|the cannibal and the chorus girl?
{22931}{23014}This Sister Sharon -|she any good at preachin'?
{23017}{23095}I don't know. I don't go|to prayer meetings. I mean...
{23098}{23205}unless business is bad|or I get sick. Times like that.
{23208}{23341}Say, how about the missionary and|the cannibals and the chorus girl, hm?
{23397}{23485}There she was in the wildest jungles|of Borneo, without a stitch on,
{23488}{23562}except her dancin' shoes|and her pith helmet.
{23706}{23780}Can I speak to Mrs Wilson,|please? Thank you.
{23852}{23964}Hello? Hello, Sally?|Me. Elmer. Who do you think?
{23985}{24079}Swell, just swell. How's every|little thing with you, honey?
{24083}{24147}{Y:i}- Baby, I just got into town.|-
{24150}{24214}Hold it a sec, Sal. Come in.
{24242}{24324}- How did we do?|- Ran out of the money in both races.
{24381}{24450}Sally? How about tonight, baby?
{24482}{24546}What time does your husband get home?
{24570}{24636}But, honey, I won't be here tomorrow.
{24639}{24738}Well, look, can you come over|for an hour? A half an hour, huh?
{24784}{24802}Oh.
{24805}{24860}Sure, Sal. Sure I understand.
{24863}{24982}Think nothin' of it, honey. I'll catch|you next time around. Bye, now.
{24991}{25027}- Did you get the bottle?|- Nah.
{25030}{25108}You know bootleggers.|They do a cash business.
{25133}{25233}- Toss you. Double or nothin'.|- No. You're too lucky, Mr Gantry.
{25236}{25317}- Thank you. Anything else I can do?|- Thanks, kid.
{25441}{25597}{Y:i}# Just now,|your doubting give o'er
{25600}{25750}{Y:i}# Just now, reject Him no more
{25770}{25947}{Y:i}# Just now, throw open the door
{25955}{26140}{Y:i}# Let Jesus come into your heart
{26144}{26257}{Y:i}# Lay we every burden down
{26260}{26360}{Y:i}# Grace our spirits will deliver
{26363}{26478}{Y:i}# And provide a robe and crown
{26495}{26602}{Y:i}# Yes, we'll gather at the river
{26610}{26724}{Y:i}# The beautiful, the beautiful river
{26732}{26838}{Y:i}# Gather with the saints at the river
{26841}{26964}{Y:i}# That flows by the throne of God
{26971}{27085}{Y:i}# Yes, we'll gather at the river
{27088}{27208}{Y:i}# The beautiful, the beautiful river
{27211}{27315}{Y:i}# Gather with the saints at the river
{27318}{27466}{Y:i}# That flows by the throne of God
{27604}{27669}Ladies and gentlemen, welcome.
{27672}{27729}Welcome to the house of God.
{27814}{27934}{Y:i}# Mine eyes have seen the glory|of the coming of the Lord
{27937}{28049}{Y:i}# He is trampling out the vintage|where the grapes of wrath are stored
{28052}{28155}{Y:i}# He hath loosed the fateful lightning|of His terrible swift sword
{28164}{28289}{Y:i}# His truth is marching on
{28292}{28386}{Y:i}# Glory, glory, hallelujah!
{28406}{28509}{Y:i}# Glory, glory, hallelujah!
{28519}{28616}{Y:i}# Glory, glory, hallelujah!
{28619}{28744}{Y:i}# His truth is marching on
{28747}{28858}{Y:i}# Glory, glory, hallelujah!
{28864}{28956}{Y:i}# Glory, glory, hallelujah!
{28975}{29069}{Y:i}# Glory, glory, hallelujah!
{29073}{29242}{Y:i}# His truth is marching on
{29538}{29609}Oh, my dear, beautiful people.
{29612}{29706}When I arrived here and I saw|your gracious countryside,
{29710}{29804}I said to myself "I won't.|I just won't be cooped up
{29807}{29916}with a lot of stodgy old ministers|discussing hell and damnation!"
{30029}{30084}So I sneaked out,
{30087}{30214}and I've been doing what most|of you have been doing - farming.
{30217}{30281}Milking the cows, lying in the clover,
{30284}{30409}and letting the joy of God's nature|flow into my heart.
{30484}{30564}And here's the proof|there's a happy, joyful God,
{30567}{30642}a bountiful God, a generous God.
{30685}{30724}Milk!
{30816}{30865}Here, Reverend. The Lord's nectar.
{30868}{30942}And pass it along to those|dear newspaper reporters
{30945}{31023}so they can wash out the taste of whisky.
{31128}{31156}Tonight...
{31160}{31279}tonight I feel gloriously happy,|and I want you to feel happy too.
{31282}{31364}We're gonna sing together,|laugh together, rejoice together
{31367}{31424}like carefree children of a happy God.
{31432}{31533}We're going to rejoice that inside|of us lives the veritable spirit
{31536}{31608}of the everlasting|redeeming Christ, Jesus.
{31611}{31672}- Hallelujah!|- Praise the Lord!
{31798}{31899}Bill, see how many of those dear people|can match God's bountiful gift
{31902}{31940}with their own offerings.
{31943}{32054}You darlings can't make milk,|and God just won't make money.
{32070}{32172}{Y:i}# Stand up, stand up for Jesus
{32179}{32281}{Y:i}# Ye soldiers of the cross
{32284}{32378}{Y:i}# Lift high His royal banner
{32382}{32439}No preaching tonight. No sermonising.
{32442}{32521}No sad faces or tears, just happiness.
{32536}{32562}Tomorrow...
{32566}{32633}tomorrow is the last night|of our revival here,
{32636}{32705}but when I leave,|you're going to carry on my work.
{32708}{32798}You're all of you evangelists,|every blessed one of you.
{32801}{32904}Shake hands with the person on your|right. Go on! Ask them if they're saved.
{32907}{32958}Won't you shake hands for Jesus?
{32962}{33042}Bless you, brother.|Sing, everybody! Sing his praises!
{33045}{33126}- Sister Falconer!|- Won't you find happiness in Jesus?
{33129}{33210}It's happiness to hear your wondrous|message. Can I have a moment?
{33213}{33277}Excuse me, please. Excuse me.
{33300}{33354}- Excuse me, please.|- Thank you, brother.
{33357}{33451}Oh, uh, yes... Sorry. No change.
{33454}{33503}Thank you.
{33941}{33992}I picked some flowers for you.
{33995}{34091}Sister, my son saw the Virgin Mother|on the roof last night after your sermon.
{34094}{34133}Can you spare me an hour?
{34136}{34228}I simply can't. Aren't our counsellors|taking care of you? Sister Rachel?
{34232}{34332}Sister Rachel, see what you can do. Every|one of these lovely people is important.
{34335}{34425}- May I have your names, please?|- I must congratulate you again.
{34428}{34465}- Thank you.|- I'm a preacher.
{34468}{34534}- I know how inspired you must've been.|- What church?
{34537}{34627}What church? Well, uh, at present,|I don't exactly have a church, but...
{34630}{34691}What is it this time, brother?|Booze or women?
{34695}{34754}Why, Sister Falconer. Me?
{34772}{34833}Whichever one it is,|you have my blessing. Jim?
{34837}{34907}- Uh, Sister, I, uh...|- Nice try, brother.
{35075}{35151}- Will prayer cure diabetes?|- Would you give me your address?
{35154}{35201}- Sister?|- Just a moment.
{35204}{35256}- What denomination?|- I must talk to you.
{35259}{35355}- If you'll just leave your name.|- I have an important message for you.
{35358}{35411}A message? From Sister Falconer?
{35414}{35470}- I heard you sing last night.|- Oh?
{35473}{35549}I know flattery don't mean much|to a talented person like you,
{35552}{35622}but when you sang that|inspiring song "Beulah Land",
{35625}{35686}it made me realise that music|is the voice of love.
{35689}{35748}- Oh.|- And what is love?
{35752}{35818}Love is the morning and the evening star.
{35821}{35895}America. A land of great opportunity.
{35898}{35980}Take me. I've been with the Central|States Appliance Company a year.
{35984}{36089}I'm their crack salesman already. They|wanna make me a partner. It's a great life.
{36092}{36217}Folks in 14 states know me by my|first name. Makes a fella feel humble.
{36220}{36314}- Would you like to start with a cocktail?|- A cocktail in the middle of the day?
{36318}{36427}Don't you know that drinkin' is sinful|and against the principles of Coolidge?
{36430}{36460}I meant shrimp cocktail.
{36464}{36531}Just bring us some of|Mother's apple pie and coffee.
{36534}{36567}Yes, sir.
{36599}{36647}I'm sorry.
{36673}{36765}{Y:i}Tell me, when did you|first start servin' God?
{36768}{36887}Two years ago. In Cato, Missouri. Sister|Sharon's gospel singer got hurt in a riot.
{36890}{36974}A riot? In a Christian town like...|What was the name?
{36978}{37008}Cato.
{37011}{37117}Cato, Missouri. Yes, some roughnecks|started yellin' and screamin' and hollerin'.
{37120}{37154}During the services?
{37157}{37282}Sister Sharon yelled to a farmer on our|side "Hit him one for the Lord, brother!"
{37286}{37361}Apple pie. They ought to write|a song about apple pie.
{37364}{37428}A gospel song. And you should sing it.
{38058}{38112}{Y:i} All aboard!
{38361}{38439}- Godspeed the good work, Sister!|- Good luck, Sister Sharon!
{38442}{38511}Godspeed, Sister Sharon! Good luck!
{38879}{38921}Shara?
{38924}{39028}Our advance man in Lincoln, Nebraska,|got drunk, and he's disappeared.
{39031}{39094}No more business tonight.
{39146}{39249}- Thank heavens. When I didn't see you...|- Thinkin' about you every second.
{39252}{39344}The fire department in Lincoln say|that we can't put up a tent our size.
{39348}{39436}- The church committee are bickering...|- Please, Bill.
{39463}{39518}The gentleman with Sister Falconer.
{39522}{39562}- Mr Morgan?|- Yes.
{39565}{39668}Tell him Mr Lefferts would like to see him|out back on the observation platform.
{39671}{39720}Thank you, sir.
{40172}{40235}Mr Lefferts? My name is Gantry.
{40261}{40302}Congratulations.
{40305}{40369}- Sorry I woke you up.|- Then why did you do it?
{40372}{40416}Oh, I recognised you.
{40419}{40509}I had to congratulate you on those|articles you wrote about evolution.
{40517}{40611}Not only scarifyin' and sensational,|but very funny.
{40647}{40768}Tell me somethin', Jim boy. I know|you got one of them Pulitzer prizes,
{40771}{40861}but you don't really believe in|all that evolution junk, now do you?
{40864}{40936}- Devoutly.|- Then you must believe
{40939}{41045}- that God himself is a gorilla.|- How did you arrive at that conclusion?
{41048}{41136}It says in the Bible|"God created man in his own image."
{41428}{41506}Sister Sharon -|she's pretty important news, eh?
{41527}{41584}What's your interest in her?
{41638}{41695}- Can I be frank with you?|- Try.
{41704}{41796}- She fascinates me.|- You'll have to get in line.
{41804}{41904}You also have to get over|a hurdle first, name of Bill Morgan.
{41907}{42014}Say, I almost forgot. He's comin' out|to see you, right about now.
{42017}{42080}He's got some secret information.
{42224}{42287}Thanks a lot, Jim boy. Thanks a lot.
{42487}{42553}- You all right?|- Yes, fine. I was just wondering...
{42556}{42610}Later, honey.
{42957}{43012}I'm sorry, this seat is taken.
{43016}{43073}Even the Lord never turned|his back on a sinner.
{43077}{43169}I am not the Lord, but I am tired.|Now, will you please go away?
{43233}{43350}You weren't so tired and all of life|two years ago in Cato, Missouri.
{43360}{43444}- That's where we met.|- Met?
{43448}{43524}Yes. On a Friday night, it was.|Remember? Remember the riot?
{43527}{43634}Some roughnecks got to whoopin'|and hollerin' and fightin', and you yelled
{43637}{43700}- "Hit him one for the Lord!"|- That's what I said.
{43703}{43793}And that's exactly what I did.|I busted him one for the Lord.
{43797}{43863}Oh, it was a lovely fight!
{43959}{44056}When I saw you in Cato, I thought I was|seein' an ángel, and you haven't changed.
{44059}{44128}- A very tired ángel.|- It's no wonder,
{44131}{44233}givin' everybody else hope and courage,|nobody to lean on yourself.
{44236}{44320}I suppose this is a generous offer|to let me lean on you.
{44352}{44424}I wouldn't have the nerve, Sister.
{44427}{44464}- Yesterday, Mr...|- Gantry.
{44467}{44516}..you said you were a preacher.
{44519}{44636}Well, uh, practically, yes. Uh, you see,|the semester I was to be ordained...
{44639}{44700}They kicked you out of college.
{44704}{44786}Well, it was a... a tragedy, kind of.
{44789}{44838}A girl.
{44860}{44901}Yeah. A girl.
{44949}{44984}A girl named Lulu Bains.
{44987}{45077}- Does she work for you, or you for her?|- We work together.
{45080}{45201}Would it be unethical to ask just what|you'll write about Sister Sharon?
{45204}{45255}- It would.|- Oh?
{45258}{45322}- I'm sorry.|- She's brilliant.
{45325}{45382}"Inspired" is a more appropriate word.
{45385}{45470}- It means "touched by the hand of God".|- Precisely.
{45473}{45526}Now, get the picture.
{45529}{45638}It's Christmas Eve. God's pure snow|driftin' down, and joy in the air.
{45641}{45741}I enter the Schoenheim church|late at night to pray for guidance.
{45744}{45817}And what do I find, right behind the altar?
{45820}{45895}Lulu Bains, my betrothed, my bride-to-be,
{45898}{46027}half-naked, locked in the arms of|her lover, a cardsharp from Chicago.
{46053}{46164}A couple of years later he was bumped|off in a gang war, God rest his soul.
{46167}{46249}Well, that's it, I guess.|I lost all interest in religion.
{46252}{46311}But when I saw you,|it was like a call from beyond.
{46315}{46372}Could I see you again?|Have breakfast with me?
{46375}{46456}What's your hotel room number|in Lincoln, hm? Tell me.
{46459}{46599}You're so completely... so outrageous.|I... I think I like you.
{46602}{46673}I guess I've been around|sanctimonious folks too long.
{46676}{46757}You're amusing,|and you smell like a real man.
{46807}{46890}Yes, I'll meet you by my tent.|That's where I breakfast. Good night.
{46893}{46961}- Oh, but, Sister...|- Oh, this time I mean it.
{47001}{47050}Pleasant dreams.
{47147}{47287}Evening, Brother Morgan. Oh, I wouldn't|bother her now. She's resting, poor child.
{47446}{47588}The wind will come from there, so keep|the centre poles where you've got them.
{47591}{47674}That way the canvas won't snap|and crackle all through the sermon.
{47677}{47726}Here they come.
{47776}{47844}Morning, Sister! Jim boy!|A lovely morning it is.
{47847}{47900}- Good morning.|- I woke with a terrific idea.
{47903}{47950}Later. Good morning, Captain.
{47953}{48031}- You can't erect that tent here, ma'am.|- Why not?
{48034}{48081}- Fire laws.|- Nonsense.
{48084}{48141}No, ma'am. No nonsense|at all. No, ma'am.
{48144}{48212}"Ma'am" is a contraction for "madam".|I am not a madam,
{48215}{48299}a calibre of woman I'm sure you|know well and do business with.
{48302}{48363}How many have been put out|of business by fire laws?
{48367}{48459}- Your tent holds over 1,000 people...|- Captain, this is Mr Lefferts,
{48463}{48566}{Y:i}- a reporter for the Zenith Times-DisPatch|- Zenith? Welcome. This is Fire Chief...
{48569}{48659}Isn't it a fact, Mr Lefferts, that the whisky|big shots want me closed down?
{48662}{48735}They certainly don't think|you do their business any good.
{48738}{48856}Know why? I'm not afraid to fight whisky|and repeal with police help or without it.
{48859}{48951}- If you're accusing me of not...|- I am. Do you enforce Prohibition?
{48954}{48984}I certainly do.
{48987}{49069}How many speakeasies could you|take the captain to in his home town?
{49072}{49160}{Y:i}- Without a membership card? 50.|- Fire laws!
{49163}{49218}Do you see any of my workmen smoking?
{49222}{49281}Do you mind? This might start a fire.
{49285}{49370}- If they don't smoke inside...|- You're welcome to see tonight.
{49373}{49455}A little bit of salvation|will do you both some good.
{49504}{49622}Sister Sharon! Never did I ever see|anybody handle the cops the way you did.
{49625}{49709}All right. What's this terrific idea|you woke up with?
{49712}{49818}Yes, well... How would it be if I addressed|your meetin' as a saved businessman?
{49821}{49901}I could talk on the hard,|practical dollars-and-cents value
{49904}{49974}of Christ in commerce.
{49977}{50030}Tom, slacken off that rope. It's too tight.
{50034}{50103}By the way, what is|your business? Hold-ups?
{50106}{50169}You're a card. I sell|for Central Appliances.
{50172}{50254}- Don't you like your job?|- Why, sure. It's a great life.
{50257}{50359}I'm their crack salesman. Only last month|they wanted to make me a junior partner.
{50362}{50483}Would you believe that people in 14 states|call me by my first name? Elmer.
{50572}{50660}No use kiddin' you, is there?|It's no life at all.
{50663}{50743}Filthy, dreary hotel rooms.|Always chasin' trains.
{50773}{50881}Always tellin' dirty stories|to keep the buyers laughin'.
{50884}{50965}Always the pint bottle|to prove you're a sport.
{50968}{51089}That kind of fella's no success at all.|He's just a tramp in a silk shirt.
{51092}{51131}Well...
{51213}{51328}I could tell the sinners|I'm a... I'm a salesman, just like that.
{51362}{51446}I come into one of them...|miserable hotel rooms.
{51472}{51537}I'm discouraged.|I got no sales to chalk up.
{51540}{51607}Nothin' to read. I'm lonely.
{51622}{51745}I'm just dyin' for a drink. Some of them|salesmen drink somethin' terrible.
{51749}{51868}And I reach my hand into|a dresser drawer... and what do I find?
{51895}{51964}A Gideon Bible. That's what I find.
{51967}{52031}Yes. Yes, go on.
{52060}{52194}I reached my hand into a dresser drawer,|and I found a Gideon Bible.
{52197}{52221}{Y:i} Louder!
{52225}{52284}I found a Gideon Bible.
{52288}{52369}I was so lonely and miserable,|I might as well have been in hell.
{52372}{52456}I was in hell. I knew|all the salesman's tricks.
{52459}{52531}Why wasn't I rich?|Why wasn't I successful?
{52534}{52620}I opened the Bible,|and I read the 18th Psalm.
{52655}{52720}"The Lord is my rock and my fortress."
{52743}{52816}"The Lord is my fortress."|Do you hear that? The Lord.
{52819}{52880}- Praise the Lord!|- The Lord is my rock!
{52883}{52944}The next mornin'|I walked into a general store.
{52947}{53020}"What are you sellin' today?|Gold-plated vacuum cleaners?"
{53026}{53110}"No, sir. You can get better vacuum|cleaners at Sears and Roebuck,
{53114}{53211}and you can get 'em cheaper, but|you can't beat our electric toasters."
{53214}{53279}He sat down and wrote me|the biggest order of the year.
{53282}{53314}{Y:i} Hallelujah!
{53325}{53403}Can you hear me, Lord? Thank you, Lord.
{53406}{53488}I didn't make that sale, Lord.|You did. Thank you.
{53568}{53617}{Y:i} Hallelujah!
{53640}{53697}And when I told my pals...
{53701}{53800}when I told my pals I was|comin' to Jesus, they laughed.
{53803}{53864}But Sister Falconer didn't laugh.
{53867}{53934}She said "Go ahead, brother.|Give 'em hell."
{53937}{53996}I'm going to give you|all the hell in the Bible,
{54000}{54094}and if you don't like it, fix it up with|the Lord because the Lord put it there.
{54097}{54139}Listen to me, sinners.
{54144}{54189}Listen to me, sinners.
{54192}{54309}You can't pray to kingdom come|and play bridge or poker. And, Mother,
{54313}{54403}you can't say your psalms and look|at God through the bottom of a beer mug.
{54407}{54431}And you, brother,
{54435}{54546}you can't go to church on Sunday|and cheat at business on Monday.
{54549}{54666}We're comin' back to you, God. We're|comin' back to the old-time religion!
{54767}{54832}And what is religion?
{54835}{54886}What is religion?
{54889}{54940}Religion is love.
{54943}{55011}And love is the morning|and the evening star.
{55014}{55080}Love, the eternal glorious musicmaker.
{55083}{55162}Love! Not the carnal love,|but the divine love.
{55165}{55280}And where does this great love|come from? It comes direct from God!
{55382}{55452}I admit I'm not smart like some of them...
{55455}{55552}some of them smart-alecky professors,|wise-guy writers and agitators.
{55555}{55654}I know nothing of theosophy, philosophy,|psychology, ideology or any other ology.
{55657}{55698}But I know this.
{55701}{55824}With Christ, you're saved,|and without him, you're lost.
{55828}{55883}And how do I know|there's a merciful God?
{55886}{55961}Because I've seen the devil|plenty of times!
{56313}{56377}Any punk ball player|can make a slide like that.
{56380}{56464}But how many folks have got the guts|to play ball on God's team?
{56468}{56598}And listen to this. The captain|of that team is Jesus Christ himself.
{56601}{56650}So, come on, man, woman, child.
{56653}{56736}Who'll be the first|to shake hands for Jesus?
{56751}{56800}Come on, now! Everyone!
{56877}{56981}Are you gonna make me beg and beg|when I'm offerin' you my Jesus?
{57010}{57118}Did the Saviour die in vain?|Did he suffer on the cross for nothin'?
{57121}{57192}Argh! My God, I can't stand it!
{57195}{57250}Oh, my God, no! Not any more!
{57254}{57355}Sinner, I'll fight you every day in the week|for God and twice on Sundays!
{57358}{57438}Help me. Brother Gantry, save me.|I sin every day!
{57441}{57517}Tell me what to do, please.|Tell me what to do!
{57540}{57609}{Y:i}- "Lifeline."|-
{57630}{57695}{Y:i}# Throw out the lifeline
{57698}{57829}{Y:i}# Somebody's drifting away
{57832}{57898}{Y:i}# Throw out the lifeline
{57903}{57966}{Y:i}# Throw out the lifeline
{57996}{58063}Bless you for bringing us|such a wonderful man.
{58066}{58141}- Sister Sharon.|- Bless you, Brother Gantry.
{58144}{58243}You've changed my whole life.|You're such a good man.
{58446}{58511}- This light supposed to be kept burnin'?|- Yep.
{58514}{58621}Sometimes folks come just to touch|where Sister Sharon stands.
{58644}{58709}Say, I heard you talk tonight.
{58712}{58812}- How'd you like it?|- Mister, I've been converted five times.
{58815}{58949}Billy Sunday, Reverend Biederwolf, Gypsy|Smith, and twice by Sister Falconer.
{58972}{59058}I get terrible drunk,|and then I get good and saved.
{59061}{59174}Both of them done me a powerful lot|of good - gettin' drunk, and gettin' saved.
{59177}{59226}Well, good night.
{59593}{59657}Are you praying, or planning to take over?
{59660}{59699}Shara!
{59731}{59794}Did I do all right?|I mean, did I do all right for you?
{59797}{59873}Yes, you were fine. Really fine.|I cried like everybody else.
{59876}{59935}No, but... Tell me the truth, please.
{59938}{60024}450 converts out of 1200 people?
{60027}{60088}That's a truth of some kind.
{60129}{60211}- Morgan thought you were vulgar.|- Do you?
{60214}{60255}- Think I'm vulgar?|- Yes.
{60258}{60292}- But you like me.|- Yes.
{60295}{60348}- Very much.|- Not very much.
{60387}{60426}Shara.
{61103}{61131}Forgive me, Sharon.
{61135}{61227}- You've got me plumb hypnotised.|- No, you're just hungry, that's all.
{61230}{61302}But I can hypnotise, because|God chose me to do his work.
{61305}{61360}- Sure, me too.|- No.
{61364}{61467}{Y:i}I chose you. The big difference|between you and me is that I believe.
{61470}{61519}I really believe.
{61574}{61637}- You'd like to join us, wouldn't you?|- Oh, yes.
{61640}{61734}- Report at nine. We'll discuss salaries...|- I got swell ideas for promotions.
{61738}{61828}- Radio, the third ear of the human race...|- You smoke, don't you?
{61831}{61913}- Well...|- I can smell it. Will you stop it altogether?
{61916}{61962}- Well, yes...|- The drinking, too?
{61965}{62035}- Oh, sure. If that's what you want, I...|- It is.
{62038}{62087}Good night.
{62315}{62368}Evening, Brother Gantry.
{62416}{62525}Jim boy! Say, all the time Shara and me -|uh, Sister Falconer and me...
{62528}{62591}Yep. Sitting right over there.
{62594}{62721}- You're not gonna write about this?|- Boy kisses girl? Hell, that's not news.
{62724}{62825}You're slipping, brother. You know,|when you first hooked me on that train,
{62828}{62960}I thought you were a friendly,|likeable, self-respecting first-class bum.
{62963}{63055}And now... now look at you.|Where'd you get your style?
{63095}{63199}- Just let her rip, I guess.|- I've heard powerful Bible-wallopers,
{63202}{63303}but you not only put the fear of God|into them, you scared the hell out of 'em.
{63306}{63402}And the way you strung certain words|together - "America, home, mother".
{63405}{63487}"Heaven, hell... Love, hate, sin".
{63490}{63621}You know, it's a funny thing, Jim.|I get up here and I... I see them out there.
{63652}{63734}Next thing you know,|I'm howlin', they're moanin'.
{63737}{63798}It's like a mighty spirit|movin' inside of me.
{63801}{63939}Words and ideas come pourin' out|like... like riled-up strangers.
{63942}{64045}I feel so powerful and full of love,|I'm about to explode.
{64048}{64097}I do explode.
{64100}{64190}{Y:i}And then I just about love everybody
{64239}{64292}Especially the giris.
{64362}{64474}Yes, this is where I belong, all right.|Right here, in religion.
{64477}{64526}Even if it is a tent.
{64529}{64590}Every circus needs a clown,|Brother Gantry.
{64594}{64728}And you might turn out to be the funniest|clown of 'em all. And the most successful.
{64754}{64793}Clown!
{64817}{64870}Jim boy, you're terrific. Terrific.
{65029}{65115}Some of them smart-aleck college|professors are trying to prove
{65118}{65191}that this here ape is your|great-great-grandfather.
{65194}{65251}Come back here. Let folks see you.
{65255}{65361}Well, he might be Darwin's uncle,|but he certainly ain't yours or mine.
{65364}{65413}Right, Grandpop?
{65839}{65915}Just a monkey, folks. Just a monkey.
{65945}{66009}Would Jesus play poker?
{66012}{66084}Would St Paul play the stock market?
{66087}{66175}What do you think will get you|into God's own glorious heaven?
{66179}{66230}This ace of spades?
{66233}{66280}Your bank book?
{66283}{66352}Or this pledge to be a good Christian?
{66420}{66491}Sin, sin, sin.
{66494}{66593}You're all sinners!|You're all doomed to perdition.
{66622}{66720}You're all goin' to|the painful, stinkin', scaldin',
{66723}{66791}everlastin' tortures of a fiery hell,
{66794}{66861}created by God for sinners, unless...
{66884}{66925}unless...
{66928}{67020}unless you repent!|Repent with Sister Falconer!
{67288}{67352}Let that man alone! Let him alone!
{67372}{67454}Go ahead and bark, brother.|Go right ahead and bark!
{67457}{67553}There he is! The devil!|Bark that devil outta this tent!
{67976}{68099}Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!
{68238}{68320}{Y:i}..the most disgusting display|of bad taste in my experience.
{68324}{68414}A human barking dog.|A monkey in the pulpit.
{68417}{68486}It's preposterous.|That's why it can't go on.
{68489}{68606}And it's obvious to everyone - even|dangerous. Especially before Jim Lefferts.
{68610}{68698}And our newspaper friend...|He's about as friendly as a rattlesnake.
{68702}{68792}- Then you think it's wrong.|- Not wrong. Ridiculous.
{68796}{68865}One minute you're preaching|a happy, perfumed heaven,
{68868}{68952}the next, Gantry's damning everyone|to a scalding, stinking hell.
{68955}{69036}- I'd say we make a pretty good team.|- Yes.
{69039}{69116}Yes, like two cops|working over a criminal.
{69119}{69221}Gantry scares him with the electric chair,|you save him if he confesses.
{69229}{69319}{Y:i}The point is, our sinner does confess,|and he is saved.
{69357}{69451}{Y:i}- But it was ridiculous.|- Does the method really matter?
{69502}{69623}Who is this, uh, this Elmer Gantry?|And what do you really know about him?
{69661}{69716}His background, his reputation?
{69720}{69810}What does he want?|Money? My job? You? What?
{69813}{69895}- Bill...|- In 1917, Mr Gantry
{69898}{69967}was expelled from|a theological seminary in Kansas
{69970}{70036}for seducing|the deacon's daughter in the church
{70039}{70133}where he had that day|delivered a Christmas sermon.
{70136}{70197}And there's more. Do you wanna hear it?
{70201}{70256}Ta-da!
{70279}{70354}Ladies and gentlemen,|you see before you a magic carpet.
{70357}{70457}A heavenly summons.|A ticket to the big time. Listen to this.
{70460}{70544}"Would you consider meeting with|the church committee and myself
{70547}{70662}about bringing your revival to our fair city|of Zenith, capital of America's Midwest?"
{70666}{70760}"Kindly telegraph reply immediately.|Signed, George F Babbitt, Secretary,
{70763}{70848}Zenith Chamber of Commerce,|Chairman of the Church Board."
{70851}{70871}Zenith.
{70874}{70944}- We're not ready for Zenith.|- Mr Babbitt thinks we are.
{70947}{71023}I know we are. Next stop, Zenith.|Then Chicago, New York, London.
{71026}{71091}Straight to the top|on the Sharon Falconer Express!
{71094}{71162}- In a tent? They'll laugh at us.|- Not at Shara.
{71165}{71253}It's pitchman's talk. What do you know|about the background of our work?
{71257}{71331}The nature of revivalism is rural.|It grew out of frontier life.
{71334}{71415}- Big-city people are more cynical...|- They're more sinful, too.
{71418}{71483}And more lonely|and more unhappy. And...
{71486}{71549}And, Shara, they need you more.
{71615}{71689}- I'm against this.|- Bill boy, you're an old sourpuss.
{71692}{71786}- This is a passport to the Promised Land.|- Gantry, I am not your boy.
{71799}{71881}You deluded her, but to me,|everything about you's offensive.
{71884}{72009}You're a crude, vulgar show-off, and|your vocabulary belongs in an outhouse.
{72218}{72252}Crude.
{72255}{72294}Vulgar.
{72320}{72443}Show-off, huh? You know something?|You're right, Bill. Let's put it this way.
{72451}{72549}You're a five-dollar textbook.|Me, I'm a two-cent tabloid newspaper.
{72552}{72602}You're too good for the people.
{72605}{72701}{Y:i}I am the people. Sure, I'm common -|just like most people.
{72720}{72802}The common people put Christianity|on the map in the first place.
{72809}{72912}What are you saying, Shara?|That you want to go to Zenith? Now?
{72943}{73015}I wonder what God wants.
{73045}{73145}All right, Shara. All right.|Maybe you are ready for Zenith.
{73148}{73252}- Thank you. I'll be with you in a minute.|- Just think of it, Shara. Zenith.
{73295}{73365}I think the answer to Mr Babbitt|ought to come from you.
{73368}{73484}Tell 'em we're ready to talk, but they gotta|act fast. Only don't say it as crude as that.
{73487}{73604}No, no. I'll use some of my|sweet-smelling five-buck words, huh?
{73607}{73654}I knew we could work together.
{73657}{73761}Gantry, uh... I just hope you don't|have any ideas about who's boss.
{73764}{73803}Boss?
{73806}{73885}Why, the boss is God.|I'm just his messenger boy.
{73919}{73990}I'm sure God will be relieved.
{73993}{74034}Yes.
{74037}{74135}{Y:i}- Leave the money matters to me.|- If they get a guarantee, what do we get?
{74138}{74193}- Why is cash necessary at all?|- Order!
{74196}{74270}Gentlemen, without a guarantee,|a revival is impossible.
{74273}{74291}Kee-rect!
{74294}{74433}As chairman, I can say I want the revival,|but we're ministers, not financiers.
{74436}{74501}- I agree. After all, $30,000...|- Will be raised.
{74504}{74574}- How, Mr Babbitt?|- By decent, respectable people
{74577}{74638}- who want to see old-time religion...|- I agree.
{74641}{74692}- Please let me finish.|- Of course, George.
{74696}{74744}- Thank you, Charlie.|- OK, then.
{74747}{74802}Everybody knows that I contribute more
{74806}{74902}to charity and poverty and things|than anybody, hm?
{74905}{75013}Hey, now, didn't my real-estate company|give you that corner lot rent-free
{75016}{75139}{Y:i}for your church baseball team, huh? Hm?|And I'm not even a Methodist!
{75167}{75301}All right, then. I always say, business|is business - that's the American way!
{75304}{75385}- Now, if you boys...|- Why do you want a revival in Zenith?
{75388}{75490}Oh, I know what you're gettin' at, Phil.|You don't fool me for a second.
{75493}{75583}- We're aware of the financial problems.|- Are we aware, sir?
{75586}{75665}- My church hasn't been painted for years.|- Whose fault is that?
{75668}{75714}What about the gymnasium?
{75717}{75794}In my area, getting milk for|the children is the problem.
{75797}{75869}Your problem is|empty churches, gentlemen.
{75872}{75915}That is a fact.
{75918}{76000}The fact is that church attendance|is falling off everywhere.
{76003}{76110}Sister Falconer can fill your churches.|That's why you're here in the first place.
{76113}{76157}- Kee-rect!|- Tea, Mr Babbitt?
{76160}{76252}- I always say, if you're sick, call a doctor.|- I agree.
{76256}{76326}Now, uh, let's look at|the record, gentlemen.
{76329}{76429}Sister Sharon has been in Lincoln -|this is going on the fifth week now.
{76432}{76511}275 new church members,
{76514}{76567}- in one church alone.|- My church.
{76570}{76656}More than 2700|decisions for Christ, gentlemen.
{76659}{76753}Actual converts who signed pledges.|Not our statistics,
{76757}{76825}but printed in|your own Zenith newspaper.
{76828}{76918}And written up by... by Jim Lefferts,|a Pulitzer prizewinner.
{76922}{77028}Does the record show how long your|converts remain church members?
{77043}{77131}Well, I always say,|when in doubt, take action.
{77148}{77178}- Let's vote.|- Second.
{77181}{77205}- All in favour?|- Aye.
{77209}{77272}- Uh, just a moment, please.|- You're out of order.
{77275}{77351}- There's a motion on the floor.|- May I say something, please?
{77354}{77417}You have our...|undivided attention, Sister.
{77420}{77543}Wouldn't it be a much happier worid if|money was not the third arm of religion?
{77547}{77621}He can't paint his church.|You can't have your gymnasium.
{77624}{77680}No child should be without milk.
{77687}{77786}And my expenses are high enough to run|a factory - I practically do run a factory.
{77789}{77903}Who do you think pays for my staff? The|musicians, the men who put up the tent.
{77906}{78027}Truck transportations, railroad fares,|food bills. Advertising and printing bills.
{78031}{78121}Electric bills, insurance bills, hotel bills.
{78124}{78205}The church committees always|expect a contribution from me,
{78208}{78347}and they always get it. And when I leave|town five weeks later, you get the benefit.
{78350}{78438}You have the flock,|and I have to start all over again.
{78488}{78568}No, gentlemen, you don't want a revival.
{78596}{78665}And I'm afraid you don't want me, either.
{78904}{78996}I think these gentlemen would like|a little privacy to kick things around.
{79000}{79052}- Thank you, Mr Gantry.|- Excuse me.
{79055}{79123}{Y:i}I'm not ashamed to admit|our churches are half-empty.
{79126}{79203}- The ball parks are full.|- So are the races.
{79212}{79238}Let's vote.
{79241}{79329}Vote to do what? Marry the Church|to a three-ring circus?
{79333}{79394}To barkers who say|they're messengers of God?
{79397}{79503}Who reduce frightened farmers to howling|dogs? All very entertaining, I'm sure.
{79506}{79583}{Y:i}We are in competition|with the entertainment business.
{79586}{79655}- I'm not.|- Then you ought to be. Huh?
{79681}{79725}How about your bingo games?
{79728}{79800}And how about your baseball games|and square dances?
{79803}{79873}Now, ain't that entertainment?|What's the difference?
{79876}{79974}It's up to us to make a success out of|Christianity, keep the churches full.
{79983}{80069}What has religion|to do with filling churches?
{80072}{80154}Once there were only|13 Christians in the entire worid.
{80157}{80239}Was Christianity a failure?|Did God go out of business?
{80242}{80385}Kee-rect! Christianity is a going concern,|a successful international enterprise.
{80397}{80460}If you boys don't get|young people back into church,
{80463}{80527}if you don't keep the train on the tracks,
{80530}{80618}your church boards are gonna|find somebody else who will.
{80622}{80686}Isn't that clear, Reverend Garrison?
{80827}{80928}Speaking for myself,|not my congregation or its church board,
{80931}{81023}religion is not a business.|And revivalism is not religion.
{81026}{81075}And my vote is no.
{81121}{81187}- Good night, gentlemen.|- Phil!
{81196}{81235}Harvard!
{81256}{81381}Well, look around you, boys. Young folks|crying out they're the lost generation.
{81384}{81512}Godless anarchists on every street|corner, and he walks out on a crisis.
{81515}{81630}Do you realise that practically|every president of the United States
{81633}{81679}was a Mason and a Protestant?
{81682}{81746}And every session of Congress|opens with a word
{81749}{81808}from the King James version of the Bible.
{81812}{81929}And right now, in our enlightened age,|a Catholic is running for president.
{81932}{81968}- Mr Babbitt...|- And...
{81971}{82005}Mr Babbitt!
{82035}{82088}Don't say another word.
{82201}{82260}George, I agree with you.
{82288}{82352}Please, John.|If revivalism can do the job...
{82355}{82387}Paul.
{82390}{82503}Zenith had a revival 40 years ago.|It saved everybody in sight for miles,
{82506}{82569}but today we still have|the same problems.
{82572}{82624}Please, John.
{82627}{82655}Please.
{82657}{82710}{Y:i} Order, order. Now, now, now.
{82713}{82807}Gentlemen, if you'll only|leave the money matters to me.
{82862}{82890}Kee-rect!
{83088}{83180}- Welcome to Zenith, Sister.|- Congratulations. A wise decision.
{83183}{83308}Gentlemen, all your churches will be|closed while the revival is in progress.
{83935}{84029}- Great folks, aren't they?|- Swell, George, just swell.
{84294}{84415}When Sister Falconer says "Shake hands|for Jesus", the chorus starts singing.
{84419}{84522}- Brother Gantry...|- Just a sec. Ushers wear these badges.
{84525}{84596}The minute folks start comin' in,|you go into action.
{84599}{84703}Keep 'em movin'. Get pledge cards into|their hands, and don't forget the pencils.
{84706}{84807}Now, you counsellors, you'll wear|these lapel pennants. Pretty, eh?
{84810}{84898}German-speaking, hold up your hands.|Swedish-speaking? Fine.
{84901}{84976}Ask if they're regular church|members. Also, what church.
{84979}{85102}And it don't matter what church. Now,|some folks are gonna wanna cry. Let 'em.
{85156}{85193}"God is love."
{85196}{85239}Jim-dandy, huh?
{85242}{85336}Well, that's it, I guess.|Tonight's the big night.
{85340}{85432}Are we gonna make a touchdown for|Jesus Christ? Any further questions?
{85435}{85516}- Brother Gantry...|- OK, then. At 7.30, we hit the line.
{85519}{85609}God is love. Sister Sharon's sanctuary.|May I help you?
{85612}{85686}Yes, sir, that's right.|Every evening at 8.30.
{85689}{85770}Yes, you may take a trolley car.|The line's 14th Street.
{85773}{85867}Yes. Yes, I understand.|Well, if you're lonesome and restless,
{85871}{85980}Sister Sharon recommends that|you read Psalm 23 or Psalm 27.
{86051}{86130}Do you know of a better|product to sell than God?
{86172}{86227}Uh, Sister, one more question.
{86230}{86297}- I'm sorry, what was that question again?|- I said...
{86300}{86369}Sister, in what branch|of the Church were you baptised?
{86372}{86426}Hold it, Sister!
{86429}{86519}Sister, I'm afraid you have a problem|with the fire department again.
{86523}{86569}- The fire department?!|- Bill!
{86572}{86642}- I've got the chief on the phone.|- Oh, Sister...
{86645}{86711}- Excuse me.|- ..could I just ask one more question?
{86714}{86793}What you'll be wearing|for the opening night?
{86846}{86936}You looked as if you had about enough|of "who, what, when, where".
{86940}{86989}Thank you.
{87029}{87088}May I have some water, please?
{87173}{87238}- You tired?|- Oh, these last two days.
{87323}{87382}The aspirin age.
{87385}{87454}Nervous about opening tomorrow night?
{87524}{87602}- I don't know.|- What about Gantry?
{87649}{87741}He's got all the nerve|in the worid, but no nerves.
{87800}{87928}You want to know the truth?|I'm scared to death of you city people.
{87931}{88041}Don't be. The women will worship you,|and the men will love you.
{88065}{88120}And you?
{88124}{88175}I'll be there, too.
{88234}{88291}Good night.
{88304}{88343}Good night.
{88454}{88572}Just as sure as God plagued the earth|with pestilence and locusts,
{88575}{88638}you and I... to doom!
{88657}{88788}I tell you, the end of the worid is comin'.|It's coming this September 15th!
{88791}{88904}- It says so in the Bible!|- Revivals are against organised labour!
{89445}{89556}Hallelujah! The Lord's name be praised!|Stop it, you scallywags! Stop!
{89876}{89957}Come on, boys.|All right, the locomotive. Here we go.
{89960}{90008}{Y:i} Boom!
{90023}{90072}{Y:i} Boom!
{90089}{90168}- Sis-boom, Sister!|- Play Sister's introduction.
{90171}{90216}Sis-boom, Sister!
{90276}{90314}Captain Holt!
{90370}{90426}Arrest them. Arrest all of them.
{90429}{90541}I don't know who started the fuss inside.|The ones outside ain't breakin' any laws.
{90544}{90626}- First arrest them. Then we'll find out...|- I wouldn't do that.
{90630}{90677}You wanna start a riot?
{90680}{90764}Folks have gotta have|stretchin' room for their feelings.
{90768}{90875}Now, why don't you sit down|and get close to God? lt'll be all right.
{90878}{90896}It's OK.
{90900}{91008}{Y:i}# Glory, glory, hallelujah
{91013}{91107}{Y:i}# Glory, glory, hallelujah
{91111}{91245}{Y:i}# His truth is marching on
{91248}{91354}{Y:i}# Glory, glory, hallelujah
{91359}{91471}{Y:i}# Glory, glory, hallelujah
{91531}{91676}- They're ready for you, Shara.|- You certainly promoted us into Zenith.
{91679}{91776}You certainly filled our tent,|didn't you? But with what?
{91779}{91875}You and your people.|Those aren't people. They're a mob.
{91878}{91997}They're one big animal. I'm not letting|Shara go out there to be humiliated.
{92000}{92098}And what's your plan? To run?|Where? Back to the sticks?
{92101}{92198}If we don't win them over tonight,|there'll be no place to run.
{92201}{92293}- Shara, you've got to face them.|- And do what? Blow them kisses?
{92297}{92412}Tell them all to be nice little boys|and giris? No, Gantry. No. No.
{92416}{92510}Zenith is your idea.|Those are your people. You face 'em.
{92684}{92722}They want Shara.
{92770}{92820}Listen to me, Shara.
{92823}{92897}Big-city people have got|a coat of hard varnish,
{92900}{92992}but underneath, they're just as sick|and scared as anybody else.
{92995}{93124}People everywhere are the same|in one thing - they're all afraid to die.
{93127}{93211}They hope you can save them.|And you can, Shara.
{93251}{93300}You can.
{93318}{93377}You can, Shara.
{93380}{93435}You can.
{93438}{93487}You can, Shara.
{93523}{93572}You can.
{93664}{93754}{Y:i} Hip, hip, hooray!|Hip, hip, hooray!
{93757}{93810}Hip, hip, hooray!
{95010}{95067}Some of you are troubled.
{95117}{95164}Sceptical...
{95167}{95216}of my motives.
{95254}{95307}You want to know my credentials.
{95330}{95367}Who am I?
{95382}{95436}Who sent me?
{95450}{95532}Some of you have come|to sit in judgement of me.
{95568}{95693}But who among you is wise enough|to be a judge in the house of God?
{95744}{95869}For even though you speak with the|tongue of an ángel and have not charity,
{95872}{95931}you are as sounding brass.
{96008}{96057}If I have sinned...
{96096}{96150}then God will punish me.
{96209}{96290}If I am lost in the wilderness,
{96293}{96362}then God will show me the way back.
{96426}{96490}Will you pray with me for guidance?
{96532}{96586}Will you?
{96635}{96716}God won't mind if you get|a little dirt on your knees!
{96719}{96780}{Y:i} I believe in you, Sister.
{96793}{96880}- Oh, bless you, brother.|- I believe in you, Sister.
{97028}{97080}No. No. No music.
{97094}{97172}Please. Please, no singing, no music.
{97175}{97224}Let us just pray.
{97255}{97308}Will you pray with me?
{97898}{97947}Dearest God...
{98125}{98196}Are you too proud to kneel, Mr Lefferts?
{98226}{98298}You may not believe in God...
{98301}{98360}but God believes in you.
{98952}{99001}Dear God...
{99096}{99176}I am set upon by enemies|and I know not why.
{99230}{99355}The Lord has said "He that believeth|on me believeth not on me...
{99389}{99442}but on him that sent me."
{99501}{99577}"And if any man hear my words|and believe not...
{99612}{99731}I judge him not.|For I came not to judge the worid,
{99744}{99805}but to save the worid."
{99854}{99908}Now is my soul troubled.
{99959}{100012}But what shall I say?
{100047}{100111}Shall I say "Father, save me"?
{100175}{100294}But it is for this cause|that I came unto this hour.
{100455}{100538}{Y:i}- Dearly beloved...|- Dearly beloved...
{100541}{100621}..avenge not yourselves, for it is written...
{100624}{100658}..for it is written...
{100661}{100736}- ..if thine enemy hunger...|- ..if thine enemy hunger...
{100739}{100796}- ..feed him.|- ..feed him.
{100799}{100862}- If he thirst...|- If he thirst...
{100865}{100920}- ..give him drink.|- ..give him drink.
{100966}{101074}- Be not overcome with evil...|- Be not overcome with evil...
{101077}{101156}..but overcome evil with good.
{101161}{101243}..but overcome evil with good.
{101246}{101270}Amen.
{101273}{101345}{Y:i}# Glory, glory, hallelujah
{101348}{101440}{Y:i}# His truth is marching on
{101491}{101540}{Y:i} Hallelujah!
{101638}{101687}Hallelujah, Sister!
{102075}{102120}- Brother Gantry...|- Sister Rachel.
{102216}{102273}She'll be out in a moment.
{102277}{102345}Didn't I tell you?|Didn't I spot her genius first?
{102348}{102429}There's been nothing like her|since Joan of Arc! I always say -
{102432}{102559}and you can quote me on this one, boys -|there's nothing succeeds like success.
{102562}{102646}- Let's get 'em outta here.|- A triumph over doubt and dissension.
{102650}{102728}- Biggest thing in Christianity.|- Can I have a picture?
{102731}{102800}Not me, and Sister's had|a tryin' ordeal, but thank you.
{102803}{102856}I was saying, if it doesn't get you here...
{102860}{102946}The poor child's practically out|on her feet. Let's give her a break.
{102949}{103047}Sure. Sure. Sure. Come on, boys, let's|give the little lady a break, shall we?
{103050}{103159}Time to say good night. We appreciated|all of you. Thanks for your cooperation.
{103162}{103202}Good night, Sister.
{103240}{103282}- Good night, Mr Morgan.|- Good night.
{103285}{103326}- Good night, Bill.|- Mr Babbitt.
{103329}{103437}- Never have made it without you.|- Thanks, Elmer. Good night. Good night.
{103440}{103487}- Brother Gantry...|- Sister Rachel.
{103490}{103574}Here's a young lady who deserves|your attention - our maestro of music.
{103578}{103642}Captain Holt - a real Trojan.|Thank you. Good night.
{103645}{103716}- Thank you, sir.|- Bill, I'll see if she needs anything.
{103719}{103776}Gantry... thank you.
{103796}{103836}Bill boy.
{103839}{103903}- Yes. Yes.|- Good night.
{103906}{103947}Bill boy. Yes.
{103950}{104004}- Good night.|- Good night.
{104383}{104422}Shara?
{104459}{104508}Are you decent?
{105382}{105431}{Y:i}Zenith Times-DisPatch? Just a moment.
{105434}{105504}Slug this "Lead all, article one."
{105507}{105575}Revivalism came to Zenith last night.
{105578}{105701}After six years of backwoods success,|Sister Sharon Falconer -
{105704}{105769}F- A-L-C-O-N-E-R -
{105772}{105870}faced a fractious,|overflowing, metropolitan crowd.
{105873}{105934}{Y:i}- Paragraph.|-
{105937}{105988}Jim Lefferts. Uh, later, please.
{105991}{106048}- "Metropolitan crowd."|- Um...
{106051}{106108}Many came to jeer...
{106112}{106171}but stayed to cheer.
{106174}{106289}Sister Sharon tamed the Philistines|with a simple prayer.
{106319}{106426}The big-city hicks swallowed the|chocolate-coated pill with hosannas.
{106429}{106516}- Give me a start on that, would you?|- Yeah, yeah.
{106519}{106558}But...
{106586}{106685}if simple prayer was|the main attraction of revivalism...
{106766}{106900}Sister's tent would soon be as empty|as the churches she claims she can fill.
{106926}{106965}Paragraph.
{107059}{107123}What... is a revival?
{107166}{107246}Is it a church? Is it a religion?
{107311}{107377}Or is it a circus sideshow
{107380}{107456}complete with freaks, magic,
{107459}{107512}and rabble-rousing?
{107605}{107693}Why does a revival attract thousands?
{107697}{107799}To see a miracle? To be saved from|a lifetime of sin in five minutes?
{107802}{107906}To be entertained, cured, cuddled,|in quick, painless salvation?
{107909}{107948}Paragraph.
{107978}{108101}Zenith is the heart of the Bible Belt. This|is an age that likes noise and whoopee.
{108104}{108165}We're a fertile land|for corn, beans, squash,
{108168}{108284}rumble-seat sex, and revivalism.|Hallelujah, brother.
{108356}{108481}{Y:i} What qualifies someone to be|a revivalist? Nothing Nothing at all
{108484}{108545}{Y:i}There is not one law|in any state in the Union
{108549}{108639}{Y:i}Protecting the Public from the|hysterical onslaught of revivalists
{108642}{108749}{Y:i}But the law does Permit them|to invest in tax-free ProPerty,
{108752}{108853}{Y:i}and collect money,|without accounting for how it is used
{108882}{108946}{Y:i}What do you get for your money?|Can you get into heaven
{108949}{109016}{Y:i}by contributing one buck or 50?
{109019}{109119}{Y:i}Can you get life eternal by shaking hands|for Jesus with Elmer Gantry?
{109122}{109183}"Continued on page three."
{109207}{109246}So...
{109249}{109380}"I watched this unholy trinity - Falconer,|Gantry, Morgan - save Nebraska."
{109383}{109522}"Has sin in that state been washed away?|Is there less envy, lust or adultery?"
{109525}{109562}- Ah.|- Gee, I hope not.
{109565}{109641}- Break it up. A party of johns want action.|- Keep readin', honey.
{109644}{109708}- But, Lulu, they'll be right over.|- Drop dead!
{109711}{109776}- Cigarette me, Pete, honey.|- Honey, read!
{109795}{109947}"To Elmer Gantry, God is an all-American|football player with a long white beard,
{109950}{110051}who carries lightning in one hand,|and a bag of tricks in the other."
{110054}{110148}"And Gantry has the high-pressure|style and personality to sell this God
{110151}{110222}even to big-city slickers."
{110241}{110315}"He can make|innocent people feel guilty...
{110336}{110401}and bad people feel good."
{110404}{110469}"Gantry has a voice made for promises."
{110472}{110542}- Can he save anybody?|- Can he?
{110616}{110710}Can he? Anywhere, any time.
{110714}{110819}In a tent, standin' up,|layin' down, or any other way.
{110822}{110878}And he's got plenty of ways!
{110881}{110958}Lulu? Was you saved|by him, Lulu, honey?
{110961}{111070}Sister, I was saved by him|way back in Schoenheim, Kansas.
{111073}{111181}"Love... love is the mornin'|and the evenin' star."
{111184}{111311}"And what is love?|Not the carnal, but the divine love!"
{111314}{111398}Oh, he gave me special instructions|back of the pulpit Christmas Eve.
{111402}{111468}He got to howlin' "Repent. Repent!"
{111471}{111542}And I got to moanin' "Save me. Save me."
{111545}{111664}He rammed the fear of God into me so|fast I never heard my old man's footsteps.
{111667}{111790}The next thing I knew, I was out in the|cold, hard snow in my bare little soul.
{111830}{111899}Oh, Brother Gantry, save me!
{112151}{112271}Don't do it, Shara. Don't get yourself|mixed up in an alley fight. Listen to me...
{112381}{112427}Why, Georgie, hello!
{112431}{112520}- You shut up. I am crucified to pieces.|- What's the matter?
{112524}{112608}What's the matter? "Why did|George F Babbitt underwrite a guarantee
{112612}{112667}of $30,000 to bring a revival to Zenith?"
{112671}{112739}"Is Sister Sharon|preaching the word of Jesus
{112742}{112824}or the gospel of Babbitt's|real-estate business?"
{112828}{112902}For God's sakes! I don't want any trouble.
{112905}{112994}I am in business.|I'm a 32nd-degree Mason.
{112998}{113062}George boy, don't take|this thing so seriously!
{113066}{113156}- I just sure as hell don't think it's a joke!|- We'll lick it, Georgie!
{113160}{113228}"Georgie!" My telephone|has not stopped ringing.
{113231}{113334}Everybody's mad at me or laughing at me.|Even my own family's turned against me.
{113337}{113376}As of right now,
{113379}{113486}I am cancelling out on my support -|financial and every other way.
{113490}{113551}George, you've got to fight back!
{113623}{113668}- Fight the press?|- Yes.
{113672}{113744}Mister, do you know anybody|ever licked the newspapers?
{113747}{113802}Me and you.
{113806}{113912}Besides, I am for a free press,|and for free enterprise,
{113916}{114000}and for... whatever the hell|the other freedoms are!
{114004}{114058}But, Reverend, you invited us here.
{114062}{114166}If you withdraw your support now, you're|endorsing this vicious newspaper smear.
{114170}{114229}- These telegrams of protest...|- There's always a lunatic fringe...
{114233}{114349}These are from my parishioners. These|are complaints from my church board.
{114353}{114435}Even my national superior|telephoned me long-distance.
{114439}{114488}I'm sorry, Mr Morgan.
{114492}{114566}- If you turn against us now...|- What I do doesn't matter.
{114569}{114649}Public opinion has turned against you.|That does matter.
{114653}{114739}{Y:i}- Tell him it's Sister Sharon Falconer.|-
{114743}{114805}{Y:i}- No, I'll wait.|-
{114858}{114926}- Did you find Mr Gantry?|- Nobody's seen him since he left.
{114929}{114993}- His hotel room?|- Hasn't been there all day.
{115019}{115079}Yes? Mr Eddington?
{115105}{115184}I want to see you. No, sir, at once.
{115211}{115324}No, your office will be fine.|Will you please have Mr Lefferts there?
{115343}{115391}Thank you.
{115426}{115507}Maybe... something|happened to Mr Gantry.
{115511}{115541}Forget Mr Gantry.
{116125}{116195}- Evening, George.|- I'm busy.
{116199}{116306}I had a busy day myself.|736 Lombard Street, two-storey building.
{116310}{116380}Owner: George F Babbitt.|Tenant: speakeasy.
{116384}{116488}- I don't know what you're talking about.|- Of course. 1121 Maple Street.
{116492}{116569}Store front, apartment in rear.|Owner: George F Babbitt.
{116573}{116616}Business...
{116658}{116734}- Business: prostitution.|- On my property?
{116738}{116832}- Well, I'll have them evicted.|- Of course. Of course.
{116836}{116892}You've been victimised, George.
{116896}{116952}- Same as me.|- Yeah.
{116986}{117114}Evening, boys. Never bet into an open|pair... unless you've got the lock!
{117143}{117200}- Say good night, George.|- Oh, this?
{117204}{117313}Well, we're just playing for chips -|you know, sociable.
{117317}{117420}{Y:i}- You takin' me for a ride or somethin'?|- To the publisher of the Times-DisPatch
{117424}{117490}- You got somethin' on him, too?|- I got you.
{117493}{117561}- Yeah, sure, but...|- It's getting late, George.
{117565}{117643}The point is, why did he write this trash,|and why did you publish it?
{117647}{117717}- Are you suggesting censorship, Miss?|- Only fair play.
{117721}{117773}- This is muckraking!|- Is it true?
{117777}{117819}- No!|- Then sue us for libel.
{117823}{117926}Oh, you're much too clever for that.|It's what you imply - the veiled slurs.
{117929}{118007}- Hints that I misused collection money.|- I never said that.
{118011}{118106}Did I ever preach anything|but God's word? Well? Did I?
{118110}{118161}- Are you ordained?|- What?
{118165}{118257}Do you hold a degree from any|recognised theological seminary?
{118261}{118331}- Does Gantry?|- No.
{118334}{118410}Are you sanctioned|to preach by any church?
{118414}{118532}No, Mr Lefferts, but... neither was Peter|or Paul or any of the other apostles.
{118536}{118623}Ah, but they said that they lived with|the Son of God, were taught by him,
{118627}{118684}were sanctified by him.
{118688}{118771}What gives you|the right to speak for God?
{118878}{118961}I couldn't possibly be doing|God's work without his approval.
{118965}{119021}How did you get his approval?
{119073}{119135}Did God speak to you personally?
{119189}{119245}Did he send you a letter?
{119271}{119330}Did you have a visitation from God?
{119334}{119387}A burning bush, perhaps?
{119437}{119560}Where in the New Testament does it say|that God spoke to anyone except his son?
{119630}{119694}But it does say in the First Corinthians
{119697}{119778}"Let your women|keep silence in the churches."
{119782}{119850}"It is a shame for women|to speak in the church."
{119853}{119950}Congratulations, Jim boy. I see you're|a student of the Bible. I'm delighted.
{119953}{120060}What is it? Are you responsible for some|of these crackpot calls I've been getting?
{120063}{120139}- You want Mr Lefferts fired, too?|- Fired?
{120143}{120214}Why, I'd give Jim a bonus|for boostin' circulation.
{120218}{120274}I thought you came to bury Caesar,|not to praise him.
{120278}{120397}Shakespeare. Ah, yes. A moment ago you|used the Bible... to whip Sister Sharon.
{120401}{120493}- I merely quoted it as a source.|- Of course. As a good newspaperman,
{120497}{120576}you wouldn't use information|unless it was fact, would you?
{120580}{120646}Tell me somethin', Jim.
{120649}{120696}Is the Bible fact?
{120700}{120730}Hm?
{120734}{120818}Well, come on, Jim boy.|Did God create the universe in six days?
{120822}{120904}Did He make the sun stand still|to help Joshua lick the Amalekites?
{120908}{120945}No.
{120948}{121002}- You don't believe Moses parted the sea?|- No.
{121006}{121084}- God wrote the Ten Commandments?|- Nope.
{121088}{121154}Or that the dead were raised|and the blind cured?
{121157}{121241}And 5,000 people were fed|with five little fishes
{121245}{121300}and two little itty-bitty loaves of bread?
{121304}{121329}No.
{121333}{121414}You don't believe in any of the miracles|in the Holy Bible, do you?
{121418}{121535}No more than I believe that black cats or|spilt salt or broken mirrors are bad luck.
{121539}{121646}Or that God can be jealous|or bloodthirsty or vengeful.
{121650}{121749}Or that Jehovah sanctions bigamy|and stupidity and slavery.
{121752}{121829}In other words,|you don't believe in the Bible.
{121859}{121951}I believe that the Bible is a book|of beautiful poetry and wisdom...
{121955}{122003}But it's not fact.
{122083}{122112}And if it's not fact,
{122116}{122202}why would he use it as information,|except to destroy her character?
{122206}{122289}I heard you say it,|and you'll burn in hell for it.
{122293}{122371}No, Georgie.|You can't scare Jim that way.
{122399}{122540}You see, if you don't believe in the Bible...|you don't believe there's a real hell.
{122544}{122572}Hey.
{122576}{122675}And it follows if there's no real hell, there|can't be a real heaven. Right, Jim boy?
{122678}{122750}Why don't you get to the point?
{122754}{122853}Do you believe Jesus Christ|can give us life everlasting?
{123045}{123144}Do you believe Jesus Christ|can give us life everlasting?
{123204}{123270}- I'd love to believe it.|- But you don't?
{123296}{123334}No.
{123431}{123519}Then you don't accept|Jesus Christ as divine, do you?
{123785}{123808}Well?
{123889}{124021}Jesus was a great, virtuous teacher.|His faith and courage changed the worid.
{124024}{124096}Do you accept Jesus Christ as divine?
{124196}{124277}Let me say... I have doubts.
{124281}{124382}- That's blasphemy!|- Mr Babbitt, to doubt is not blasphemy.
{124385}{124476}When you say "blasphemy", you mean|"Don't dare disagree. Don't think."
{124480}{124531}"Don't doubt."
{124535}{124665}But Tolstoy, Darwin, Jefferson, Lincoln -|they had the same doubts.
{124669}{124733}Then they'll burn in hell, too!
{124755}{124846}Mr Eddington, in spite of|Mr Lefferts' confessed bigotry,
{124850}{124937}I defend your right to publish these|articles. But give us equal rights.
{124941}{125040}- Your reply'll be published prominently.|- Mr Eddington, I'm no writer.
{125043}{125120}Now, Jim is brilliant and witty.|Uses words like a stiletto.
{125124}{125210}He learned from Mencken, Ingersoll,|Sinclair Lewis, other atheists.
{125214}{125267}- Atheists!|- But you own a radio station.
{125271}{125341}Set the time. Half an hour.|Tonight? Tomorrow? Name it.
{125345}{125431}Every day for two weeks -|half-hour in the morning and evening.
{125435}{125547}- Just to answer this article?|- I don't intend to answer anything.
{125551}{125599}You don't debate the existence of God.
{125603}{125684}Jim, here, has spread|the poison of doubt and disbelief.
{125688}{125802}Just give me a chance to spread the|gospel, to raise the banner of Christianity,
{125806}{125874}to restore the faith he stole.
{125878}{125964}Now, sir, I realise time means money -|especially radio time.
{125968}{126012}Right.
{126032}{126085}So our good citizen, George F Babbitt,
{126089}{126208}has kindly consented to pay for every|minute of radio time. Right, George?
{126212}{126260}Georgie boy?
{126325}{126400}- Right.|- Thank you, sir. Good night.
{126404}{126443}Sister.
{126470}{126540}Good night, Mr Eddington. Mr Lefferts.
{126543}{126620}- Jim boy.|- Congratulations.
{126624}{126681}I bear you no malice. Mr Babbitt.
{126692}{126780}Blasphemy! Good night, Mr Eddington.
{126784}{126871}And you... you ought to be|ashamed of yourself.
{127214}{127288}Oh, it was... glorious.
{127292}{127369}Outrageously, blissfully glorious.
{127396}{127532}Oh, you really are an alley fighter.|You hit Brother Jim both sides of the belt!
{127536}{127611}You murdered 'em. You knocked|'em flat with a celestial bolt -
{127615}{127683}eight, nine, ten, and out! Oh, darling!
{127837}{127969}You didn't fight fair but you've seen|your duty and you've done it. Oh, darling!
{128112}{128207}Stop it. Stop it. I was crazy.|I was so happy you delivered me!
{128211}{128334}Can't you understand? God sent you|to me as his instrument, not as my lover.
{128391}{128521}No, I don't understand. You got me|half-crazy, talkin' to myself.
{128524}{128605}One minute you're a howling banshee,|the next, you're cold potatoes.
{128609}{128673}I don't understand anything,|but I worship you.
{128700}{128792}Well, then, stop treating me|like one of your tramps!
{128796}{128877}There's no such thing. There's|honest women and dishonest women.
{128881}{128940}And you want to make|an honest woman out of me. Men!
{128944}{129014}Don't knock 'em if you haven't tried 'em.
{129017}{129075}{Y:i}- EncycloPaedia sexualis|- I never read it.
{129079}{129180}You wrote it! You've just got to have|every woman - old, young, stupid. Even...
{129204}{129295}Even poor, starved Rachel|with her wet calf eyes.
{129327}{129403}- May God strike me dead...|- Be careful, or he'll strike you dead
{129407}{129519}for being the ungrateful liar that you are.|Can't you ever tell the truth?
{129523}{129644}You wouldn't know the truth if it bit you.|It's you I want, Shara. No one else.
{129648}{129718}I want you so bad,|I'm in pain half the time.
{129721}{129787}I'd tear your holy wings off,|make a woman out of you.
{129790}{129906}I'd show you what heaven is - no golden|stairways or harp music or silvery clouds.
{129910}{129976}Just ecstasy, comin' and goin'.
{130012}{130078}Do you really think I'd compete|for your glorious body?
{130082}{130194}Damn right. Every woman competes|with every other woman for every man.
{130242}{130350}It's the truth, Shara. You want it.|You want it as much as I do.
{130354}{130462}You want it with me. When are you|going to make up your mind to take it?
{130658}{130722}Get in the car. Go on, do as I say.
{131146}{131210}Turn on the lights, please.
{131683}{131722}There.
{131758}{131828}That's what I've been working for.
{131831}{131928}No more tents. No more|running around like a circus.
{131931}{131993}No more haggling with committees.
{132011}{132067}My own tabernacle.
{132094}{132213}A permanent home. A clinic for|sick bodies. A free soup kitchen.
{132217}{132308}A place of worship for|everybody of every faith.
{132343}{132390}That's my first love.
{132516}{132576}{Y:i}What have you got to match that?
{132615}{132675}Nothin'. Nothin' at all.
{132699}{132781}I'm just a hick from Kansas,|and you're real class, Shara.
{132785}{132886}The only class I've got is the name|Falconer. That's why I picked it.
{132914}{132984}I'm Katie Jones from shantytown.
{133040}{133115}That's right. Shantytown.
{133119}{133249}{Y:i}But does that make a liar out of me?|I am Sharon Falconer now. I've made her.
{133252}{133353}I've put her together piece by piece|till I've got a right to be her. I am her.
{133367}{133445}I started building this tabernacle|two years ago,
{133449}{133540}and when this revival is ended,|I'll have enough money to own it.
{133550}{133643}Do you think it was blind luck|that brought us to Zenith?
{133749}{133797}Do you?
{133841}{133892}Of course not.
{133896}{133973}- It was God's will.|- Of course.
{134195}{134279}- Now do you understand why we...?|- Of course. Of course.
{134283}{134344}- Nothing's going to take it away from me.|- Nothing.
{134348}{134401}- Nobody must spoil it.|- Nobody.
{134432}{134490}- I've never...|- Of course.
{134494}{134542}- Never.|- Naturally.
{134569}{134617}Yes.
{134687}{134733}{Y:i} Sister Sharon?
{134753}{134781}Sister Sharon?
{135001}{135082}Jim Lefferts is an honourable man.|But so was Brutus.
{135086}{135191}And we all know that Brutus was|an anarchistic, alcoholic assassin.
{135268}{135414}{Y:i}Jim "Lucifer" Lefferts calls you good|PeoPle of Zenith suckers, slickers, saPs
{135418}{135546}{Y:i}He attacks the way you worshiP I don't|notice him attackin' booze or Prostitution
{135588}{135647}{Y:i}Lucifer Jim says he wants to save you
{135651}{135732}{Y:i}How? By stabbin' Jesus with dirty lies?
{135758}{135807}{Y:i}By assassinatin' God?
{135843}{135913}I have here in my pocket -
{135917}{135974}and thank heaven you can't see them -
{135978}{136044}lewd, dirty, obscene...
{136071}{136106}And I'm ashamed to say this.
{136110}{136158}..French postcards.
{136219}{136316}They were sold to me, in front of|your own innocent high school,
{136320}{136415}by a man with a black beard. A foreigner!
{136419}{136474}- Shocking!|- And last night...
{136478}{136636}last night, right here on Main Street,|I was accosted by three painted women!
{136640}{136710}{Y:i}- The tramps.|- Your streets are made unsafe
{136713}{136770}{Y:i}by shameless, diseased hussies,
{136774}{136891}{Y:i}raPacious PickPockets,|and insidious oPium-smokers
{136895}{136947}And Elmer Gantry.
{137040}{137158}This newspaper... this newspaper|says everybody's against me.
{137162}{137268}The mildewed Methodists, Episcopalians,|and Baptists are against me.
{137272}{137333}Even the ossified, petrified, horizontal,
{137337}{137405}perpendicular Presbyterians|are against me!
{137408}{137465}But this newspaper lies!
{137469}{137526}Some of the preachers|might be against me.
{137535}{137638}Unitarianism, Russellism,|Spiritualism - they hate me!
{137642}{137714}And what hates me|most of all is Harvardism,
{137717}{137785}Yaleism, and Princetonism!
{137810}{137884}But you're some of God's best people.
{137887}{137951}- And you don't hate me, do you?|- No!
{137955}{138038}- Smack 'em down, preacher!|- Kill 'em! Murder 'em!
{138182}{138235}Can you hear me, Jesus?
{138285}{138402}I'd like you to save this|old friend of mine, Jim Lefferts,
{138406}{138526}who's been writin' all these dirty, black|lies about me. But I'll warn you, Jesus.
{138530}{138618}You better wear rubber gloves|and use a strong disinfectant.
{138622}{138710}But if you can save sinner Jim...|I'd like for you to do it.
{138737}{138801}What the hell's he trying to do?
{138976}{139056}Shara, they've played|your introduction twice now.
{139060}{139118}This is the biggest crowd we've ever had.
{139197}{139257}Please, Shara.
{139261}{139370}{Y:i}# Glory, glory, hallelujah
{139376}{139489}{Y:i}# Glory, glory, hallelujah
{139553}{139652}{Y:i} We're all sinners,|every blessed one of us
{139806}{139908}Booze! Booze put a bullet|through Lincoln and McKinley!
{139951}{140112}Booze is the way white slavers rob the|virtue of 60,000 American giris every year!
{140195}{140267}The bootleggers, the white slavers,
{140271}{140353}and that newspaper are tryin'|to scare me and Sister outta town!
{140429}{140495}But as long as I got a foot, I'll kick booze!
{140499}{140565}As long as I got a fist, I'll punch it!
{140568}{140640}And as long as I've got a tooth, I'll bite it!
{140644}{140729}And when I'm old and grey|and toothless and bootless,
{140733}{140861}I'll gum it, till I go to heaven,|and booze goes to hell!
{140976}{141038}That's a hell of a speech.
{141042}{141151}It's been eight days. It's been eight days|since I gave you the addresses
{141155}{141247}of 11 blind tigers, two cocaine peddlers,
{141251}{141315}and 16 brothels.
{141318}{141360}And what's been done about it?
{141364}{141422}{Y:i}- Nothing, Captain.|-
{141480}{141562}We're gettin' sick and tired of scoldin' sin.
{141566}{141620}We're gonna abolish it!
{141624}{141708}We'll show 'em how to clean up|this town tonight! Right now!
{141712}{141759}Charge!
{141851}{141894}Elmer, be careful.
{141897}{141940}Courage, Sister. Courage.
{142273}{142372}Brother Jim! Glad to see you|on the side of the angels.
{142376}{142475}Aren't you afraid some of these|desperate bootleggers carry guns?
{142479}{142580}- No bullet could pierce the Holy Bible.|- They might not aim at the Holy Bible.
{142583}{142636}Very good! Onward!
{143073}{143163}- Smash that speakeasy door!|- What for? Just knock. They'll open up.
{143167}{143219}Captain. My good man.
{143255}{143313}Hold it! All right, Reverend.
{143534}{143616}- Sinful woman!|- That's a dirty lie! We pay protection!
{143620}{143678}- Shame! Shame!|- Take 'em away, men!
{143682}{143758}- Whisky!|- Why didn't you give me a phone call?
{143762}{143821}Don't break the furniture!
{143939}{144062}- Should've seen what this one was doing.|- Harlot! You ought to be asha...
{144131}{144184}Arrest this woman!
{144364}{144465}{Y:i}#..soldiers, marching as to war
{144519}{144624}Captain Holt, may I suggest you release|these poor unfortunate creatures?
{144627}{144672}- What? But you told me...|- I know.
{144676}{144748}But throwing a prostitute into jail|will not remove her sin.
{144752}{144864}And it certainly won't get rid of|prostitution. No pictures. No publicity.
{144868}{144972}Captain Holt, I want to compliment|you and your men on a fine, patriotic job.
{144976}{145035}Why, thank you, sir.
{145039}{145096}See these giris leave town. And quick.
{145298}{145351}Excuse me, Mr Gantry.
{145397}{145473}That Mr Gantry,|he's absolutely incredible.
{145477}{145565}The fabulous thing about Mr Gantry|is, he's absolutely credible.
{145617}{145700}{Y:i}- Excuse me, please.|- She's here, Mr Gantry.
{145736}{145818}{Y:i}- Oh, Mr Gantry...|- Not now. Not now. Later. Later.
{145822}{145917}There you are. Sister'll see all of you|as soon as she's had a moment's rest.
{145989}{146073}Mayor, congressman, the governor,|and lookie here, Shara.
{146077}{146171}Offers... from England, Japan,|Australia, Madison Square Garden...
{146175}{146231}- From me to you.|- ..the circus.
{146260}{146317}Shara, you shouldn't have.
{146321}{146412}How about you sneaking away|with Katie Jones on a real fun picnic?
{146416}{146480}No telegrams,|no newspapers, no sermons.
{146484}{146556}The only business of the day will be us.|Just the two of us.
{146559}{146598}Oh, Shara.
{146624}{146686}- We can't.|- But why? I've got the escape planned.
{146690}{146802}The car's out front. We'll disappear|before they even know we've gone.
{146806}{146882}You're gonna cinch a contribution|from the ladies' committee.
{146886}{146968}At 11 o'clock, we dedicate your|Waters of the Jordan Tabernacle -
{146972}{147040}the mayor, fireworks,|the brass band, everything.
{147043}{147144}12.30, lunch, Rosen's department store,|where you say grace for 200 salesmen.
{147147}{147250}- And at two o'clock...|- I'll be exhausted, irritable and hateful.
{147273}{147349}Shara... we'll celebrate tonight.
{147358}{147413}- Late.|- Tonight's a thousand years away.
{147417}{147465}Shara, baby...
{147494}{147636}Oh, very well. Bring in those smug|little ladies with their fat little hands,
{147640}{147774}- fat little souls and fat little...|- Don't forget their fat little chequebooks.
{147856}{147944}- Ladies. Dear ladies.|- Mr Gantry? You're wanted on the phone.
{147948}{148060}Thank you. Bill. I'll take it right here.|Lovely morning, isn't it?
{148064}{148119}- Hello?|- Mr Gantry, it's so nice meeting you.
{148123}{148195}- Sister joyously awaits you.|- Oh, Mr Gantry.
{148199}{148313}Thank you very much. Hello? Yes,|this is Dr Gantry - uh, Mr Gantry. Who?
{148322}{148398}Elmer, honey? It's Lulu.
{148435}{148488}- Who?|- I just called to say thanks
{148492}{148560}for gettin' me out of that jam last night.
{148705}{148771}What's the address?
{148774}{148873}Mr Gantry, I just had to congratulate you.|You were marvellous last night.
{148877}{148941}Last night? Oh. Yes.
{149080}{149136}- Get hold of Benny.|- Now, wait a minute.
{149140}{149223}- This Gantry bum's a preacher.|- Get hold of Benny.
{149355}{149394}OK.
{149735}{149791}Are these pictures for|divorce or blackmail?
{149795}{149864}- Benny, come on!|- Remember, position is everything.
{149868}{149893}No!
{149897}{150004}Without any flash powder, you gotta get|this guy to freeze for a couple of seconds.
{150008}{150115}Time exposure takes time.|So keep him still... and quiet.
{150119}{150188}- But that's so dull!|- And keep the radio playin'.
{150192}{150264}{Y:i}- So he don't hear this.|-
{150267}{150296}- OK?|- OK.
{150300}{150338}OK, OK. Let's go!
{150440}{150530}Hey, chick. This preacher fella.|You think you could get him into bed?
{150534}{150585}{Y:i}Are you kiddin'?
{150589}{150638}Hey, Benny. Come on!
{151450}{151506}- You look swell, kid.|- Likewise.
{151510}{151558}Just swell.
{151787}{151851}- Sorry about last night.|- Forget it.
{151961}{152056}- If I'd known I'd run into you, I'd have...|- Oh, that's OK.
{152337}{152396}- What the hell's the big idea?|- Elmer, honey...
{152400}{152501}- You think I'll sit still for a shakedown?|- How could I put the squeeze on you?
{152505}{152602}- Who'll take the word of a hooker?|- The old badger game, huh?
{152606}{152678}- I only wanted to see you for...|- For what?
{152681}{152734}- Well, for...|- For what?
{152762}{152896}Gee, honey, look. Look, I'm almost|packed. The cops gave me notice.
{152900}{152964}I got a ticket on the midnight bus.
{153283}{153336}I got no beef against you.
{153364}{153434}I only wanted to see you once more,
{153438}{153537}kick around some old memories,|maybe have a few laughs.
{153540}{153588}Go on.
{153707}{153759}Who am I kiddin'?
{153794}{153901}When you first hit town, I figured|you could go to hell without my help.
{153905}{153997}When you came bustin' in last night|like God Almighty wearin' a tin star,
{154001}{154124}I got mad, boilin' mad. All I could think of|was how you took me and ditched me.
{154128}{154217}That's all I could think of.|Me, little Miss Lulu, the dumb pushover.
{154221}{154287}And when the cops said|"Get out of town in 24 hours",
{154290}{154345}all I wanted to do was spit in your eye,
{154349}{154433}blackmail you, a shakedown -|anything to hurt you.
{154495}{154534}But...
{154573}{154637}But when you walked in just now...
{154691}{154749}Gee, honey...
{154753}{154836}it was like the first time|between us all over again.
{154875}{154933}All goose pimples and...
{155046}{155096}You'd better beat it.
{155146}{155199}I'm sorry I phoned.
{155224}{155299}I won't make any trouble.|Not even if I could.
{155385}{155438}Please go now.
{155538}{155619}I did run out on you|back there in Kansas, didn't I?
{155651}{155739}It's nobody's fault.|Except maybe my old man's.
{155743}{155809}- Ever hear from him?|- Once, last Christmas.
{155812}{155940}The letter said "Daughter, read|1st Kings, Chapter 21, Verse 23."
{155943}{156068}I looked it up. It said "And the dogs|in the street shall eat Jezebel."
{156113}{156169}My old man and his Bible.
{156209}{156257}Tell me...
{156278}{156359}how is it some people can|only find hate in the Bible?
{156468}{156580}- Where will you be going to?|- I think I'll go tramping through Paris.
{156584}{156658}Can you use some cash?|Sort of tide you over?
{156781}{156847}Just... just kiss me goodbye.
{156879}{156923}Just once.
{157968}{158016}What's she doin'?
{158261}{158309}Stay awhile.
{158362}{158410}Talk to me.
{158443}{158509}Oh, don't go yet. Please don't go.
{158576}{158628}Tell me anything.
{158632}{158717}Tell me a good, strong lie|I can believe, but hold me.
{158721}{158791}Just hold me like you used to.
{158795}{158834}Please.
{159185}{159239}- No use, Lu.|- Why?
{159243}{159291}Because I...
{159313}{159414}- I don't know. I...|- Because of what? Because of her?
{159418}{159457}That Bible broad?
{159889}{159949}I'm sorry. No hard feelings.
{159977}{160053}- Please. Don't go yet.|- Lu, I...
{160057}{160162}You know, I... I could use|some of that cash after all.
{160185}{160331}Why, sure. Maybe I could send you some|from time to time. Till you get a job, or...
{160335}{160412}or maybe meet some nice|respectable man, huh?
{160416}{160484}I meet nice respectable men every night.
{160610}{160666}The best bank in America.
{160838}{160906}- Take care of yourself.|- Likewise, hon.
{160999}{161075}Class. She's got real class.
{161455}{161515}Wake up! Wake up, Miss Katie Jones!
{161552}{161672}{Y:i}You see before you the captain of the|SS HaPPiness, fishing boat extraordinary.
{161676}{161762}All aboard for a glorious,|carefree, happy cruise.
{161766}{161848}Fun, fish, frolic... and romance.
{161866}{161905}Guaranteed.
{162475}{162612}Bill! Not one word, not one, about legal|documents, tents, moneys or lost souls.
{162616}{162700}We're going on a picnic, see,|and if you squeal, we'll rub you out.
{162704}{162757}Do you think I'd rat on a couple of pals?
{162761}{162817}It will be all right, won't it, for one day?
{162821}{162892}In that outfit, the fish'll jump|into the boat to look at you.
{162896}{162934}Yes.
{162962}{163032}We're going! We're going on a picnic!
{163059}{163132}I've been promising|to take her on a picnic.
{163170}{163240}You got that look, Bill. What's the matter?
{163520}{163595}Elmer the Great. Elmer the Grifter.
{163599}{163706}The con man conned with|the oldest badger game in the worid.
{163709}{163771}- I don't want Shara to see these.|- She'll have to.
{163775}{163876}Bill, I'll do anything you say.|I'll... I'll quit. I...
{163894}{163954}- Don't let Shara see these.|- She's got to see them.
{163963}{164073}Darling, don't you think we ought|to take Bill on the picnic with us?
{165028}{165066}I...
{165134}{165218}- I suppose they're for sale?|- $25,000.
{165275}{165325}25,000.
{165336}{165416}Two o'clock today. Cash. In small bills.
{165420}{165522}And she wants Shara|to bring her the money, nobody else.
{165645}{165698}Her name is Lulu Bains.
{165973}{166021}Get the money.
{166104}{166198}One more thing. She wants you to bring|the money to 721 Lombard Street.
{166202}{166278}That's where she worked|before it was raided.
{166557}{166630}{Y:i} Sammy! Get out of the water!
{167643}{167703}Make yourself right at home, honey.
{168200}{168248}Be right there!
{169087}{169140}I've brought the money.
{169196}{169249}May I have the negatives, please?
{169623}{169671}Extra, Jack!
{169731}{169846}Yeah. Yeah, I read the story,|I saw the pictures.
{169850}{169918}- Thank you very much.|- Did you see this?
{169952}{170000}I saw it.
{170016}{170076}- Did you see this?|- Yeah.
{170080}{170158}Now, I understand she brought|these pictures to you first.
{170162}{170206}- Yeah.|- And you turned her down?
{170210}{170248}Mm-hm.
{170344}{170382}Why?
{170408}{170510}These pictures prove only one thing -|that Gantry's as human as anybody else.
{170514}{170572}It's the obligation of a free press to print...
{170576}{170685}{Y:i}You're right, Mr Eddington. A free press|can print anything, including lies.
{170689}{170799}And that's exactly what|that pornography is: blackmailing lies.
{171181}{171258}Why don't those men take off their hats?
{171862}{171930}First time I've seen|Reverend Pengilly up there.
{171933}{172007}First time they've ever|been in trouble up there.
{172134}{172210}Thank you for coming here tonight.
{172233}{172312}You have every right to an explanation.
{172329}{172389}I will try to give it to you.
{172398}{172452}Tell us about sin, Sister!
{172456}{172533}{Y:i} Antichrist! You Judas, you!
{172537}{172589}- You false prophet!|- You faker, you!
{172593}{172640}- Boo!|- Yeah!
{172644}{172774}- Liar! Damn your own soul, Mr Gantry!|- You call yourself a preacher?
{172881}{172924}Come on, Rachel.
{173066}{173116}Rachel, you've gotta get outta here.
{174172}{174228}Hey, Mr Gantry!
{175522}{175584}{Y:i}- Hello?|- My name is Mrs Welmer
{175588}{175652}{Y:i}I go to church every Sunday
{175687}{175745}{Y:i}You tell that Sister Sharon
{176048}{176151}- Get outta town, preacher woman!|- Go home, Sister!
{176155}{176203}{Y:i}- Poor Sister!|-
{176405}{176460}O my God...
{176498}{176551}why hast thou forsaken me?
{176670}{176722}We'll take you home.
{177497}{177547}Why'd you do it?
{177574}{177626}Did... did she show with the money?
{177653}{177692}Well?
{177724}{177762}Yes.
{177820}{177895}Why didn't you go through with it? Why?
{177954}{178007}You wouldn't understand.
{178202}{178288}I know. You took|the pictures to the paper
{178292}{178358}cos they were gonna pay you more, huh?
{178361}{178410}How much did you get for 'em?
{178414}{178454}Nothing.
{178458}{178506}I didn't sell them.
{178593}{178657}You were never gonna sell 'em...
{178660}{178730}not even to that Sister woman, were you?
{178734}{178804}You hate Gantry that much?
{178808}{178870}Or do you love him that much?
{178976}{179038}And you're no good to me.
{179042}{179097}Or yourself.
{179101}{179159}You're no good to anybody!
{179482}{179546}Don't you know that hurts?
{181456}{181517}I'm sorry, Lu.
{181521}{181577}I'm sorry for everything.
{182946}{182999}Brothers and sisters...
{183044}{183079}goodbye.
{183082}{183107}Amen.
{183164}{183190}Jim boy!
{183194}{183266}You look like a man|who could use a drink.
{183269}{183406}Booze. You know somethin', Jim?|There oughta be a law against drinkin'.
{183410}{183488}- There is. Prohibition.|- That's against sellin', not drinkin'.
{183492}{183525}Amen.
{183546}{183606}- Happy days!|- I'll drink to that.
{183653}{183701}God, that's good.
{183763}{183820}Would you look at this place, Jim?
{183886}{183963}What were they so mad about, anyhow?
{183967}{184050}The mob don't like|their gods to be human.
{184054}{184133}- They hurt you?|- Not as much as you hurt me.
{184137}{184198}Nothing personal.
{184202}{184268}What'll you do now?
{184271}{184372}Well, the way I got it figured, you're up,|you're down, you sin, you're saved.
{184375}{184458}You do the best you can,|and you leave the rest to the Lord.
{184462}{184526}You really do believe|in the Lord, don't you?
{184530}{184644}Damn right I do. It does a man good|to get down on his knees once in a while.
{184648}{184705}That's why people|come to a place like this,
{184709}{184824}because they're scared, or sick,|or... because they got no money,
{184828}{184916}or too much money.|Or before a war, or after a war.
{184963}{185062}Praying's the cheapest|first-rate medicine I know.
{185065}{185123}That's why Shara was so good for them.
{185187}{185240}She's a lotta woman.
{185293}{185332}Yeah.
{185367}{185422}You oughta marry her.
{185426}{185549}- You believe in holy matrimony?|- I can recommend it, never having tried it.
{185576}{185632}Too late now, Jim boy.
{185657}{185705}Maybe not.
{185728}{185823}Miss Bains was waiting for me|at the paper with that story.
{186114}{186184}- How'd you get her to do it?|- I didn't.
{186244}{186312}The Lord sure moves in mysterious ways.
{186483}{186591}Any minute now, you will hear|the voice of Sister Sharon Falconer,
{186595}{186652}but not that, I'm afraid, of Elmer Gantry.
{186661}{186745}For Mr Gantry has completely vanished|since three nights ago.
{186749}{186826}I've checked the police,|hospitals, railroads, bus depots...
{186830}{186867}Where is he? Where?
{186870}{186992}Every wire service in the country's asking|the same question. He's page-one news.
{186996}{187070}If anything happened to him,|you'd know it.
{187177}{187216}Yes.
{187243}{187296}Yes, I would know it.
{187354}{187453}He'll be here, I'm... I'm sure of it.|We'll wait for him.
{187456}{187588}We can't wait. Some of those people|have been out there since early morning.
{187591}{187674}- I won't go on without him.|- Maybe he won't be back.
{187735}{187783}Just a feeling.
{187889}{187935}We'll wait for him.
{188715}{188754}Elmer?
{188902}{188943}Oh, darling!
{188947}{188988}Darling!
{189033}{189076}- Gantry's back.|- How do you know?
{189080}{189168}Somebody just saw him.|Where's a phone around here?
{189185}{189277}- What about your friend Gantry?|- Quite a guy! Son of a...
{189385}{189439}Let me look at you.
{189443}{189514}Three endless days without a word.
{189518}{189559}Why?
{189563}{189647}Don't you realise how much I need you?
{189715}{189783}Are you angry? With me?
{189786}{189864}- No, Shara.|- Don't ever leave me again. Ever.
{189906}{189952}Shara.
{189956}{189994}Yes?
{190025}{190081}What would happen if we chucked it all,
{190085}{190184}beat it across the state line,|get good and married, like most folks?
{190188}{190291}Have a bunch of kids, take 'em|to a ball game like most folks.
{190295}{190415}Go dancin'. We've never gone|dancin' together, not even once.
{190419}{190477}Let's do it, Shara. Tonight. Right now.
{190481}{190564}- But all those people...|- If they wanna pray...
{190586}{190647}let 'em go to church.
{190651}{190690}But...
{190726}{190779}this is their church.
{190841}{190887}Look!
{190891}{190943}Look! A shooting star!
{190973}{191012}It's a sign,
{191016}{191100}an omen for the glory that begins tonight.
{191137}{191181}Ready, Shara.
{191185}{191292}{Y:i}# Glory, glory, hallelujah
{191298}{191370}{Y:i}# Glory, glory, hallelujah
{191374}{191407}Wish me luck.
{191411}{191506}{Y:i}# Glory, glory, hallelujah
{191510}{191663}{Y:i}# His truth is marching on
{191754}{191826}If you believe in the faith|of your own Sister Sharon...
{191829}{191850}Yes!
{191854}{191916}..if you believe in|the innocence of Elmer Gantry...
{191920}{191948}Yes!
{191952}{192036}- ..and if you believe in God Almighty...|- Yes!
{192040}{192118}..reassure them with|a mighty "hallelujah"!
{192615}{192679}- Hallelujah, Sister!|- Hallelujah!
{193122}{193166}At this very moment,
{193185}{193288}the power of the Holy Ghost|has descended on this tabernacle.
{193349}{193397}He is here.
{193420}{193468}Here right now.
{193476}{193600}Just now, across the heavens,|towards the end of the worid,
{193613}{193652}I saw an omen...
{193665}{193782}a fiery line written by the hand of God,|a glorious shooting star.
{193806}{193878}Thus, God has told us of his coming.
{193896}{194011}Have we lost God? Have we lost|contact with the supernatural?
{194020}{194122}Have we lost faith? Because|without faith, we are morally sick.
{194131}{194221}Faith... is the strongest force in the worid.
{194225}{194275}Faith can raise the dead.
{194279}{194357}Faith can heal. Faith is the...
{194361}{194420}Help me, Sister! Help me!
{194444}{194492}Help me.
{194519}{194579}He can't hear, Sister. He's deaf.
{194619}{194680}Let him alone, please.
{194955}{195019}Help me, Sister.
{195022}{195079}Heal me.
{195083}{195132}{Y:i} You should take him to a doctor.
{195136}{195198}God is the greatest healer of all.
{195216}{195258}Was he born deaf?
{195262}{195350}A storm woke him up one night. He|screamed he couldn't hear the thunder.
{195354}{195426}- He could feel it but he couldn't hear it.|- You're his wife?
{195429}{195502}Yes, Sister. I'm sorry to trouble you.
{195802}{195895}Do you believe in the Father,|the Son, and the Holy Ghost?
{195990}{196092}Do you believe that Jesus|could heal by the laying on of hands,
{196101}{196195}and that he passed|this gift on to his disciples?
{196227}{196279}Pray with me, everyone.
{196283}{196362}Please pray with me. I need your faith.
{196443}{196499}O Lord...
{196503}{196575}O God, be merciful.
{196687}{196720}Heal.
{196741}{196769}Heal.
{196911}{196969}O God, help us in our weakness.
{196992}{197075}Punish us for our sins,|but reward us for our faith.
{197169}{197194}Heal.
{197224}{197262}Heal.
{197351}{197440}Let thy spirit fill this tabernacle.
{197456}{197534}Let thy holiness bless this house,
{197544}{197610}created for thy glory,
{197613}{197677}and thine alone.
{197789}{197822}Heal!
{197825}{197878}Pray for God to heal!
{197882}{197909}Heal!
{197964}{198012}God...
{198190}{198248}Can you hear me?
{198315}{198363}God, I...
{198382}{198454}I... I think I...
{198521}{198622}- Repeat after me. Blessed is the Lord.|- Blessed is the Lord.
{198625}{198730}- We thank thee, O Lord, for thy mercy.|- We thank thee, O Lord.
{198754}{198802}I can hear.
{198826}{198905}O God... I can hear!
{198909}{198992}Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
{199798}{199847}Please wait. Please wait.
{199870}{199928}Don't... don't... don't get excited.
{199969}{200019}Oh, my God.
{200091}{200178}- Are you all right?|- Yes. Take care of the others, please.
{200182}{200240}You're in the house of God!
{200635}{200732}Those who believe in God will be saved.|Trust in the Lord!
{200736}{200787}Oh! Oh!
{201641}{201711}Are you all right, Shara? Shara? Shara?
{201885}{201953}- No. No. No. No. No!|- Shara!
{202056}{202094}Help!
{202122}{202150}No, please wait.
{202211}{202271}No, wait! Please, wait!
{202527}{202589}Wait! You must have faith!
{202593}{202641}- Wait!|- Shara!
{202699}{202723}Shara!
{202787}{202828}Shara!
{202842}{202875}Shara!
{202908}{202956}Shara! Shara!
{203011}{203041}Shara! Shara!
{205902}{205955}It's hers.
{206014}{206067}It's all we could find.
{207221}{207349}People everywhere would appreciate a|word from you, Mr Gantry. Anything at all.
{207391}{207459}Speak to us, Mr Gantry.
{207518}{207578}Please ask Sister Sharon to forgive us.
{207582}{207663}There ain't nothin' to forgive.|It was mighty hot in there.
{207667}{207718}Hotter than the fires of damnation.
{207722}{207776}I ran. I was afraid.
{207803}{207869}Please ask Sister not to hate me.
{207927}{207981}Can you hear me up there, Sister?
{208010}{208063}Do you hate these folks?
{208093}{208165}She don't hate you. She loves you.
{208169}{208233}Praise the Lord and his love.
{208237}{208294}And what is love?
{208298}{208376}Love is the mornin' and the evenin' star.
{208380}{208454}Love is the voice of music. So sing.
{208458}{208514}Sing out the Lord's love.
{208633}{208707}{Y:i}# I'm on my way
{208711}{208786}{Y:i}# Up to Canaan land
{208810}{208887}{Y:i}# I'm on my way
{208891}{208963}{Y:i}# Up to Canaan land
{208990}{209065}{Y:i}# I'm on my way
{209069}{209166}{Y:i}# Up to Canaan land
{209170}{209207}{Y:i}# On my way
{209211}{209250}{Y:i}# Glory, hallelujah
{209254}{209318}{Y:i}# I'm on my way
{209331}{209413}{Y:i}# It's a mighty hard climb
{209417}{209498}{Y:i}# But I'm on my way
{209502}{209578}{Y:i}# It's a mighty hard climb
{209582}{209630}That was inspired.
{209651}{209727}- Think that was inspired, Jim boy?|- I think it was real friendly.
{209731}{209821}You know, Shara would...|want you to go on with her work.
{209825}{209899}We'll get a tent - a bigger one this time.
