The Millionaire1955
Michael Anthony:
[Anthony enters the study to see Tipton, seated in a high backed chair at his desk. Only Tipton's left arm is visible to viewers] You sent for me, sir?
John Beresford Tipton:
[Pointing to funhouse mirrors at the side of his desk] Take a look at yourself, Mike. [Anthony steps before one of them, with an ensuing slight deformation evident] Doesn't look much like you, does it?
Michael Anthony:
I should hope not, sir.
John Beresford Tipton:
But even in that distortion, there is some essence of truth. It's still you. See if that one [pointing to another mirror] is more flattering. [Anthony moves to a second mirror with extreme misrepresentation of his countenance apparent. Anthony makes silly faces at the reflection. Tipton chuckles] Don't let it go to your head, Mike. Sometimes, a mirror can do it. Sometimes, fortune, good or bad, can distort a life. [Tipton hands an envelope to Anthony] Our next millionaire, Mike. [Anthony accepts the envelope, bows, and turns to depart]
