The Millionaire1955

Michael Anthony:
[Anthony enters the Silverstone estate outdoor garden, where he finds Tipton seated in a high backed al fresco chair observing a bust of a young boy. It appears to be evening] You sent for me, sir?

John Beresford Tipton:
Mike, do you remember the legend of William Tell?

Michael Anthony:
Everyone remembers the Swiss tyrant Gessler who commanded William Tell to shoot an apple off his son's head with a bow and arrow.

John Beresford Tipton:
[Tipton places an apple atop the head of the boy's statue] Yes, Mike - only it was an Austrian tyrant who held the Swiss patriot William Tell as a prisoner.

Michael Anthony:
[Embarrassed] Yes, sir, that's what I meant.

John Beresford Tipton:
If Tell succeeded, he'd gain his freedom. If he failed...

Michael Anthony:
He would kill his son.

John Beresford Tipton:
But he shot it off, clean as a whistle, destroyed the tyrant, and set his people free. What I remember most is the supreme confidence that boy had in his father. [Tipton hands over an envelope to Anthony] Our next millionaire, Mike.
