Overheard at dinner in the Polo Lounge: (The OMG version)
Wow, that Bollywood actress. She was stunning wasn't she?
Yeah sure. I guess.
So Mr. Beatty, can you ask something?
Call me Warren kid, I like you. You remind me of my friend Monty. You're an actor you can make it look like you like anybody, even stone cold blondes. Look at me with Dunaway.
No no not that.
Kid I've seen your work off screen. Take some free advice, if you want anyone to believe you like you're a ladies man, you gotta at least look at them a little. 
Mr. Bea..
Warren.
Mr. Beatty, I just want to ask you how you played a quarterback in the 70's. I gotta do this Namath movie, and wanted to get your advice.
You're Broadway Joe. Yeah you got the look kid, and you can do the dandy duds Joe liked, and think you can do the pantyhose thing, but you gotta lot a work to do...
Is it hard to make people think your a real quarterback?
Nah, that's easy, get a good technical advisor, and editing helps kid, get some kind of say in that. You know Joe was a lot of fun, fun fun guy. Always lots girls followed Joe. Man it was fun back then.
Mr. Beatty..
You know kid, I think your challenge isn't make people believe girls wanted to sleep with Joe, your hardest thing for you playing Joe, unlike real Joe, is that you want to sleep with them. Never had that problem myself.
Mr. Beatty...
Warren Listen kid I know you want to get into producing. It's a good thing, you get control of what goes on screen, you get to call the shots, and when you know something's good, Oscar answers. But for every Bugsy there's a Reds. Remember that kid.
Mr. Beatty...
Don't worry about the acting sister thing, it works.
Mr. Beatty....
What kid?
Could you help me with one more thing, someone very close to me loves Hal Ashby and I was wondering if you could help me get something cool from Shampoo for him.
