The clip lamont meets with barth from The Shadow (1994)

Sorry I'm late, Uncle Wainwright, but there was a little...
...accident on the bridge.
I didn't think you wanted me to wait.
Incidentally, try the prime rib. It's excellent.
Your usual, Mr. Cranston.
Thank you very much.
You're welcome.
You know, Lamont, I'm very upset with you.
What is it this time?
What is it this time?
What is it every time?
You ask me to dinner and show up an hour late.
There's no excuse-
Uncle Wainwright, I'm sorry, I...
...I got caught up.
With what, for God's sake? You don't do anything.
A man your age is unseemly. At least pick a hobby or something.
Why am I talking to the back of your neck?
Lamont? Lamont?
Sorry. What were we talking about?
I've never meddled in your affairs, going back to the time...
...after the war when you disappeared for some seven years.
I never asked questions then. I'm not now.
Excuse me, Police Commissioner Barth. Urgent message for you, sir.
What's the matter? Cops and robbers business slowing down?
It's a report of that damned Shadow character again.
You said he was only a rumor.
I'm sick of this Shadow business, his meddling in police affairs.
This time tomorrow, I'll put a task force on him.
You're not going to appoint a task force.
No. Hell with him.
I'm not going to appoint a task force.
You're not going to pay any attention to these reports of the Shadow.
Ignore them entirely.
There is no Shadow.
There is no Shadow. If there were, I'd be Eleanor Roosevelt.

The clip being-interviewed from Thelonious Monk: Straight, No Chaser (Straight, No Chaser ) (1988) with Thelonious Monk, Bob Jones. Powered by: Anyclip. any moment from any film. What is more important in your work? Playing the piano or composing? - I do both. - Both. Mr. Monk, do you always wear different hats and caps in your concerts? Do they have an influence in your music? No. Good question. Maybe they do. I don't know. Do you think the piano has enough keys? 88? Or do you want more or less? It's hard work to play those 88. I was in the room, Nellie was in the room, backstage. And a reporter came and asked him what kind of music he liked. And Thelonious: "I like all kinds of music." A pretty good, legitimate answer. And then the reporter said, "Do you like country music?" Thelonious didn't answer. And the reporter said, "Well, do you? Do you like country music?" Thelonious looked at me and said, "I think the fellow's hard of hearing."

Live television is the scariest medium of all... ...because it's millions of people. If you're going to act silly or not show up... ...it's going to be a glaring omission. I just remember being very nervous. He sat down and he played, and I was aware... ...of a real professional. What's there to be nervous about? He's there. I remember though, on the way back, he was a little pissed off... ...at Count Basie. What did he say? He said Count Basie kept looking at him... ...while he was playing. He was at the piano and that somehow bothered him. He said, "Next time he plays, I'm going to look at him."
