From subtitles to the recent film "Molly's Game" —

1893
01:19:40,423 –> 01:19:42,633
I'm the only
Irish guy they let play.

1894
01:19:42,718 –> 01:19:43,851
-I'm not Irish.

1895
01:19:46,549 –> 01:19:48,729
-You're not?
-No.

1896
01:19:50,367 –> 01:19:51,594
-Molly Bloom?

1897
01:19:51,695 –> 01:19:53,570
-You're thinking of the
James Joyce character.

1898
01:19:55,434 –> 01:19:57,286
-I always thought you were Irish.

1899
01:19:57,809 –> 01:19:58,473
-I'm not.

1900
01:19:58,543 –> 01:19:59,856
Can you bring me some players?

1901
01:19:59,881 –> 01:20:02,200
-Isn't there a famous book?
-Okay, Douglas.

1902
01:20:02,239 –> 01:20:04,231
Focus up. Yes, there's
a book by James Joyce

1903
01:20:04,279 –> 01:20:06,482
called <i>Ulysses</i> and there's
a character named Molly Bloom

1904
01:20:06,529 –> 01:20:07,974
and that is why
you think I'm Irish

See as well an interview in this evening's online New York Times
by Maureen Dowd with "Exorcist" director William Friedkin —

“I don’t drink,” he says. “I’ve never done drugs.
I’ve never tried grass. But I think Miles Davis
is a reason to live.”
