It's Only Words... Unless They're True.

In Chicago, We Love Our Crooks!

You Got An All-out Prize Fight, You Wait 'til The Fight's Over, One Guy's Left Standing And That's How You Know Who's Won.

You Get Rich Through Luck. You Get Rich Through Crime. You Get Rich Through Fulfilling The Needs Of Another. You Can Be As Greedy As You Like. If You Can’t Do One Of Those Three Things, You Ain’t Going To Get Any Money.

Forget Narrative, Backstory, Characterisation, Exposition, All Of That. Just Make The Audience Want To Know What Happens Next.

The Pain Of Losing Is Diverting. So Is The Thrill Of Winning. Winning, However, Is Lonelier, As Those You've Won Money From Are Not Likely To Commiserate With You. Winning Takes Getting Used To.
