HE to Joseph McBride (Facebook, early this morning):
At the beginning of his big angry red-felt pool table explanation rant, Sydney Pollack repeats the word “let’s.” He says “okay, Bill, let’s…let’s cut the bullshit, okay?”
And you left out that odd spitty sound…that Bix Beiderbick pursed-trumpet-lips “pyht!” sound…call it a conclusive emphasis sound…Pollack says “her door was locked from the inside, the police are happy…end of story, pyht!”
