The Horse's Mouth poster

Overview

Gulley Jimson is a boorish aging artist recently released from prison. A swindler in search of his next art project, he hunkers down in the penthouse of would-be patrons the Beeders while they go on an extended vacation; he paints a mural on their wall, pawns their valuables and, along with the sculptor Abel, inadvertently smashes a large hole in their floor. Jimson's next project is an even larger wall in an abandoned church.

00:01:54 There you are, lady.
00:04:25 Oh, my name is Dallyrand, by Rideler's End out of Cutler's Folly.
00:05:11 Well, I gallop my heart out for the first half-mile or so...
00:06:17 You acted on the spur of the moment?
00:07:10 Maybe you've discouraged her. Maybe you've broken her heart.
00:08:01 Come on, I want you to meet Samantha.
00:08:55 Oh, fine, fine. Why don't I fix us all a drink.
00:10:09 Now, what kind of a crack is that?
00:10:56 Honey, you can't be serious.
00:11:49 - When? - Now.
00:12:35 Darrin, I've never turned a horse into a person before.
00:13:37 This may be his only chance...
00:14:30 He knows. I told him you're a horse.
00:15:19 Maybe you're right. Where's the barn?
00:16:31 You can't always judge a horse by his appearance. Right, Dolly?
00:17:29 ... and Diamond Turk ey on the outside.
00:18:24 You know something? I'd have to train a while, but I could get to like it.
00:19:21 No, I'm still looking for her. I have no idea where she is.
00:20:13 Yeah.
00:21:24 But it's crazy. Dallyrand hasn't won a race in years.
00:22:27 There they go.
00:23:14 Pioneer and Latk e and Dallyrand.
00:24:01 It's Knows Nothing in front.
