The Millionaire1955
Michael Anthony:
[Anthony enters the study to see Tipton, seated in a high backed chair at his desk, with a phonograph record player and a miniature roulette wheel on his desk beside each other. Only Tipton's right arm is visible to viewers] You sent for me, sir?
John Beresford Tipton:
[Indicating the roulette wheel] What's your pleasure, Mike?
Michael Anthony:
[Thinking] Eleven Black.
John Beresford Tipton:
[Tipton spins the wheel. It stops] Nine Red. You lose, Mike. [Indicating the record player and the wheel] These two have a lot in common, besides the fact that they both spin. People sometimes stake as much on the spin of a record as they do on the spin of the wheel.
Michael Anthony:
I'm not certain I follow you, sir.
John Beresford Tipton:
Some people gamble their hopes and their futures on the success of a record. As with the roulette wheel, sometimes they win, sometimes they lose. [Tipton hands an envelope to Anthony] Our next millionaire. [Anthony accepts the envelope and bows]
