Alfred Hitchcock s06e22 The Horse Player Movie Subtitles

00:00:24,970 --> 00:00:26,Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.

00:00:27,250 --> 00:00:32,Someone had the brilliant idea that I
should don this costume in order to

00:00:32,910 --> 00:00:38,dramatize the title of tonight's play.
It is called The Horse Player.

00:00:39,110 --> 00:00:41,Just a moment, you forgot something.

00:00:45,790 --> 00:00:49,I'm sure you want to know who authored
this clever charade.

00:00:50,300 --> 00:00:55,His previous works include the following
one -minute audio collage.

00:01:17,550 --> 00:01:20,Be our protection against the wickedness
which snares the devil.

00:01:20,690 --> 00:01:24,May God rebuke him with holy prayer and
do thou a prince of the heavenly host.

00:01:24,810 --> 00:01:29,God send hell, Satan, all the evil
spirits who wander through the world,

00:01:29,970 --> 00:01:30,to ruin my soul.

00:01:31,470 --> 00:01:33,Amen. Amen.

00:01:33,650 --> 00:01:35,Most sacred heart of Jesus.

00:01:35,630 --> 00:01:38,Have mercy on us. Most sacred heart of
Jesus.

00:01:38,870 --> 00:01:40,Have mercy on us.

00:01:41,690 --> 00:01:43,Most sacred heart of Jesus.

00:01:43,850 --> 00:01:45,Have mercy on us.

00:01:54,570 --> 00:01:58,I have been asked to announce that the
meeting of the Mother's Committee has

00:01:58,810 --> 00:02:00,been postponed until next Thursday.

00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:40,Now, Mr. Cheever, I would take space.

00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:45,Father, I mean, I brought those figures
we were talking about. I'm afraid it's

00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:46,not very good news.

00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,You see, Father, it's not just a matter
of a few broken shingles.

00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,I could plug up one leak, all right, but
another would just break out someplace

00:02:55,220 --> 00:02:57,else. Yes, I understand, Mr. Cheever.

00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:01,You're going to have to have a whole new
set of drains, downspouts.

00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,I just can't see it being managed for
anything less than $1 ,500.

00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:07,Well, I'm sure you've done your best.

00:03:09,060 --> 00:03:12,Unfortunately, Mr. Cheever, it seems
that the church treasury has as many

00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:17,as the church roof. We've had so many
repairs this year. But I've placed the

00:03:17,620 --> 00:03:21,facts before the bishop, and maybe he
can work a minor miracle.

00:03:21,860 --> 00:03:25,Meanwhile, well, we can only hope for
fair weather.

00:03:26,260 --> 00:03:28,I'm very sorry, Father. Thank you.

00:03:28,660 --> 00:03:29,Goodbye.

00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:36,Oh, Father.

00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:38,Will you take a look up there?

00:03:39,100 --> 00:03:40,What is it?

00:03:42,780 --> 00:03:43,Ten dollar bill, Father.

00:03:44,700 --> 00:03:45,So it is.

00:03:46,540 --> 00:03:50,I don't think I've seen a ten dollar
bill in a midweek collection since

00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:51,the war.

00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:52,Did you see who the kind owner was?

00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:54,Oh, I couldn't help noticing him, sir.

00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:56,Even before he gave me his donation.

00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:58,He was in the first pew on the left.

00:03:59,340 --> 00:04:01,I don't think he's ever been at service
before.

00:04:01,620 --> 00:04:03,What was so unusual about him?

00:04:03,860 --> 00:04:06,Well... Sort of a rough -looking fellow,
sir.

00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,Sort of sporty clothes.

00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,Oh, you mean the gentleman in the sport
shirt.

00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:13,Oh, yes, I did see him.

00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:18,I don't think it's very charitable of
you, Morton, to criticise his attire.

00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,Oh, I wasn't criticising him, sir.

00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:22,Especially after I saw his donation.

00:04:23,060 --> 00:04:25,Well, I didn't quite mean it like that,
sir.

00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:27,I understand how you feel.

00:04:28,340 --> 00:04:33,It does seem a shame that we should be
so preoccupied without expenses, but...

00:04:33,580 --> 00:04:35,I'm sure things will improve.

00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,Yes, Father. The Lord will provide.

00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:46,Amen.

00:05:22,580 --> 00:05:25,Aramis. Arate frate.

00:05:43,690 --> 00:05:45,Just for a moment. Oh, sure, Father.

00:05:46,250 --> 00:05:48,I've been wanting to talk to you for the
past week.

00:05:48,630 --> 00:05:49,Oh, really?

00:05:50,030 --> 00:05:52,By the way, I enjoyed your sermon very
much, Father.

00:05:53,010 --> 00:05:56,Oh, I hope you realize that some of it
was meant for you. I couldn't help

00:05:56,670 --> 00:05:59,noticing how generous you've been to our
poor church.

00:06:00,170 --> 00:06:01,Are you new in the parish?

00:06:01,970 --> 00:06:06,Oh, no. I've been around this
neighborhood over 20 years now. Only,

00:06:06,070 --> 00:06:09,ain't never been much for churches. In
fact, the first time I came in here was

00:06:09,510 --> 00:06:11,about two weeks ago on a Tuesday.

00:06:12,540 --> 00:06:15,Well, I'm certainly glad that you've
changed your mind.

00:06:15,380 --> 00:06:19,Seems to me I've seen you here several
times during the past two weeks. Well,

00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,yeah. It's okay, ain't it, Father? I
mean, you don't mind, huh?

00:06:23,660 --> 00:06:24,Mind?

00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:26,Why should I mind?

00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:27,Well, I don't know.

00:06:28,260 --> 00:06:32,By the way, my name is Sheridan, and I
sure appreciate it, Father. It's meant

00:06:32,620 --> 00:06:34,awful lot to me to come here to the
church.

00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:35,Well, I'm glad.

00:06:35,500 --> 00:06:38,Yeah, I'm glad, too. You see, when I saw
that little sign of yours, you know, a

00:06:38,620 --> 00:06:41,little sign you g***t outside that says,
uh, try prayer?

00:06:41,820 --> 00:06:45,I says to myself, what have you g***t to
lose? You ain't had no luck at nothing

00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:50,else, so why not give this prayer thing
a chance? So I came in and tried it. Did

00:06:50,020 --> 00:06:50,it help?

00:06:50,780 --> 00:06:52,Oh, boy, I'll say it helped.

00:06:52,840 --> 00:06:56,Well, that makes me very happy to hear
you say so, Mr. Sheridan. You won't

00:06:56,500 --> 00:06:59,believe this, Father, but that day I had
six winners out of eight.

00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,Six out of eight, and one of them was a
20 -to -1 shot.

00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,I never had a day like that since I've
been going to the track.

00:07:06,020 --> 00:07:08,In fact, I was down to my last two
bucks.

00:07:08,620 --> 00:07:09,Just a moment.

00:07:09,890 --> 00:07:11,I don't understand what you mean.

00:07:12,250 --> 00:07:14,The track, Father. You know, the horses.

00:07:15,510 --> 00:07:18,Look, I don't want you to get sore. I
suppose a guy like you, you probably

00:07:18,970 --> 00:07:20,go in for gambling and stuff like that,
huh?

00:07:22,350 --> 00:07:28,You mean my sermon sent you to the
racetrack? Oh, no. I was going to go

00:07:29,010 --> 00:07:31,I go to the track all the time. That's
how I make me living.

00:07:31,980 --> 00:07:35,See, I used to be in the hardware
business, but I g***t kind of tired of it.

00:07:35,860 --> 00:07:39,as I say, when I saw that sign of yours,
I said, why don't we give it a whirl,

00:07:39,700 --> 00:07:41,Charlie? What have we g***t to lose?

00:07:41,700 --> 00:07:43,So, I started praying.

00:07:44,180 --> 00:07:45,Boy, how I prayed.

00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:47,Give me a winner, please.

00:07:47,340 --> 00:07:48,Please, God, give me a winner.

00:07:49,100 --> 00:07:50,So what happened?

00:07:50,260 --> 00:07:53,I g***t six of them. And I've been picking
them real good ever since.

00:07:54,780 --> 00:07:59,Mr. Sheridan, I don't think you
understood my message at all.

00:07:59,850 --> 00:08:04,I said that prayer could work miracles,
but not for such selfish aims.

00:08:04,930 --> 00:08:08,Well, it sure was a miracle, all right,
Father, and believe me, I owe it all to

00:08:08,350 --> 00:08:10,you. There's been a misunderstanding.

00:08:10,630 --> 00:08:12,You've made a mistake, Mr. Sheridan.

00:08:12,670 --> 00:08:15,Prayer isn't intended for horse races.

00:08:15,330 --> 00:08:18,You can't pray for your purse and
neglect your soul.

00:08:19,350 --> 00:08:21,Oh, I thought you'd be sore.

00:08:22,070 --> 00:08:25,Oh, no, I'm not angry. Just look at it
this way.

00:08:25,410 --> 00:08:27,Now, suppose...

00:08:27,980 --> 00:08:31,Everyone at the track prayed for his
horse to win. Now, you know that isn't

00:08:31,780 --> 00:08:32,possible, don't you?

00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,So don't you realize what a dilemma
would be presented to the Lord?

00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:38,Is that fair?

00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,Yeah, I never thought of it that way. I
guess you're right.

00:08:42,100 --> 00:08:44,Then you do see the error of it.

00:08:44,740 --> 00:08:50,Well, yeah, it would be tough. That is,
if everybody prayed for a winner. Only

00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:51,they don't, see?

00:08:51,460 --> 00:08:55,Everybody ain't wise to this prayer
racket, Father. And that's their hard...
