The Millionaire1955

Michael Anthony:
[Anthony enters the Tipton library to find Tipton standing with a book, partially obstructed from viewers by a bookcase. Only Tipton's right hand is visible] You sent for me, sir?

John Beresford Tipton:
I've been taking a little journey, Mike, back to the days of my childhood.

Michael Anthony:
That's always pleasant, sir.

John Beresford Tipton:
Join me,

[Tipton hands over his book to Anthony]

John Beresford Tipton:
although it's a somewhat shorter trip for you.

Michael Anthony:
"Horatio Alger", sir?

John Beresford Tipton:
The American dream, Mike. The young man who goes from rags to riches. You remember how this pleasant transition was achieved, Mike?

Michael Anthony:
As I recall, sir, the formula was always hard work and perseverance.

John Beresford Tipton:
Yes, but there are always a few who prefer shortcuts and like to chase rainbows.

[Tipton reaches into his pocket and produces an envelope, which he hands over to Anthony]

John Beresford Tipton:
Give this to a rainbow chaser par excellence, Mike. Our next millionaire.

[Anthony bows and departs]
