Anatomy of a Love Seen (2014) Movie Script
A mark!
And B mark
Action.
Boom!
- Is that clear?
- Yes.
Roll over on top of her.
Stay on her for a moment,
we'll get what we can.
Or do you want me
straddling her, sitting up?
- Just like this?
- Yeah.
Do that again,
just hand up at the top and...
Does this arm look awkward?
We're not
gonna be able to see it.
And make the decision
to take your bra off.
- Do that...
- Ha, like every time.
I know. Just bring
some action into it, ladies.
Okay.
We only see
from shoulders down.
- We don't even see that...
- Shoulders down?
- Shoulders up.
- Shoulders up.
- Yeah, that's all we see.
- Okay.
So it's all about your facial
response and reaction right now.
Okay.
A set!
Back at it!
Whenever you're ready.
Roll to the right
and bring your left leg
back over her butt crack.
- Is that it?
- Yes.
Oh. Sorry!
So I'm back up on your ass!
Yeah, and just try
to cheat this up a little bit.
Just do a little feet love.
Some foot love, babies.
Yeah!
For all those foot enthusiasts
out there.
Okay, and tell me
when you want me to finger her.
Don't worry, I will.
- You can be in charge of that.
- Alright. Finger Captain.
- We're all friends here.
- Yeah, that's good.
Let me pull
this little piece of bra up
Just there.
Just so we can see what it is.
Alright. Just make sure
you keep this hip back.
Are we set?
Set.
And... action!
Come on!
- Are you okay?
- Mm hmm.
- Yeah?
- Yeah. Actually my contacts hurt.
Try and sniff a couple of times.
- It'll drain the tear ducts.
- Thank you.
- Thank you, Alex.
- Sure.
I wanna show you,
it's really exciting
what Ben's done
with the war room.
Oh, man, I wanted to finish
before you guys got here!
- This is amazing!
- How are you?
- It's so good to see you!
- Good to see you too!
Wow, I love the fabric!
- I know, a little twinkle...
I love you so much...
- Stop it...
- I do.
Little touch of magic.
You're always good for that.
- I want you to feel comfortable...
- Anne and twinkle lights.
Ping!
Okay, well, you guys do your thing.
I'm gonna go set up the bedroom.
I'll be up to check it out
in a second.
I've been noticing this on your hand.
I've never seen this before.
- Um... it's just...
- Wait, wait, wait.
I'm feeling there's some
special energy about this.
What... no, I'm really...
What is in here?
No, Kara, honestly,
give this back!
I'm sorry, no secrets!
I'll share this with you later.
I'm gonna go check on the crew.
Okay... no, wait, wait wait!
You're not zipped.
Hold on. Come here.
I have a problem finishing.
- I'm gonna do the wide of that.
- Yeah.
Ben looks like he has
everything under control.
- Okay, but did he check the Polaroid?
- He checked the Polaroid.
'Cause if the bedside table doesn't
match, it's gonna drive me crazy.
It will match.
We're taking care of it.
- All right.
- So that looks good.
So you know what?
Can you guys handle the rest?
I really have to check on Zoe.
I'm feeling very angsty.
There are a few things
I need to go over with you.
You guys can deal
with it, right?
You guys.
Kieran, can you have
somebody move this?
Hey! There she is.
How's my girl?
Good!
Just remember
to be yourself today.
That's all
you need to worry about.
I mean, I'll tell you right now,
'cause Mal is not coming,
and I mean, she just
doesn't care about your thing,
she doesn't care about me,
she doesn't care about you,
like, she's not
gonna actually show up,
so I'm actually okay, because I
know she's not going to be here.
- She has to come.
- She didn't have to come.
- She kinda has to come.
- Okay, we'll see.
- I'll check back later, okay?
- Mm hmm.
Guys, I need her out in ten!
- Hey...
- Zoe's just a mess.
Kieran wants to know why
Mal's call time was pushed back.
It's a personal thing.
I talked to her last night.
Which is actually really good,
because Zoe came in late
and she's still
in the makeup chair.
They would have totally
run into each other.
Tell me we're gonna
get through this.
How are we gonna
get through this?
We're gonna get through this.
Can you... just pray a lot.
- Okay.
- Okay?
Hey, can I get
a stand-in, please?
Her favorite part
is standing in.
Oh, absolutely stunning.
It's lovely.
Can you actually stop,
so I can look at the lighting?
Oh, yes, I know. Hi!
Okay, alright. Just stay still.
Can you just sit...
lay in the center of the bed
and lay still,
and look up at the camera
Hey, Justin, I feel like last time
it was a little more shadowy,
just a little more intimate.
Not quite so... bright.
More shadows.
Can we do something about that?
Yeah, sure. Hey,
Kevin, can we look into that?
Yeah, no problem.
Hey, honey! How are you?
- I'm fine.
- Really?
Yeah, I'm on Wilson
Alright. Well, you know,
you're almost here,
so just look for the...
there's no number on the
building so it's a little tough.
Just look for the big
metal garage door.
Okay...
Okay. Alright. Just breathe.
- Bye
- Bye
Fuck!
Hey hey, we gotta go!
Come.
We gotta get Zoe out of makeup.
Let's go, let's go.
Cause Mal is almost...
- Hey, guys!
- Hey, how's it going?
Hey, you're new. I'm Zoe.
Hi, I'm Kevin.
Very nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you, Kevin.
- Hey, how's it going?
- You look amazing.
You're like glowing. You look like a
blond Audrey Hepburn or something.
- Your skin looks beautiful.
- Thank you! Thank you!
Exactly right! I can't believe
I didn't say that before.
- You look amazing.
- Thank you!
Alright, I wanna
show you something?
- Hey, how's it going?
- How's it going? Good to see you.
Alright.
Ben gave me a war room.
Since there's no space here?
Look what he did.
Since we don't have
a trailer for you today,
let's go in...
so we can chat for a minute.
What do you think?
It's nice, right?
Yeah. It's
actually really nice.
I know, it's kind of better than
the actual room we had last time.
I like it. He did a good job.
Yeah.
Definitely did a good job.
So, how are you
feeling, baby girl?
Okay.
You doing your breathing?
I see you're drinking water,
that's awesome.
I know, I know! I'm nervous.
I'm so fucking nervous.
But it's all good,
it's so good.
You're gonna... you know,
knock it out of the park
like you always do.
Can people just not,
like mention anything?
Nobody's gonna...
you're taking lead.
If you want to talk
to people, you do.
If you don't want to,
you have this space to come to.
That's why it's here. Okay?
Look at the big comfy chair.
It's for you!
You know I don't sit.
Alright, so...
I'm gonna take
care of you today.
You know that, right?
You need anything...
at any moment...
You come to me.
Don't go to anybody else.
Alright?
I gotta go check on things.
- I'll be back.
- Okay.
I love you. I love you.
Hello!
Something's wrong
with this room.
Are you talking about the walls?
- That's part of it.
- There's not art on the wall and stuff?
Yeah! Where are the walls?
Oh, oh, okay. I get it,
So here's what's happening.
Remember the broadcast deal
we talked about?
Just to go over this again,
for the broadcast deal,
we have to have
the part of the love scene
that was filmed with nudity,
It's sort of doing a PG-13
version of the love scene.
So basically,
everything we have right now
before they get in bed
is perfect.
Everything after
they get out of bed, perfect.
We only need
to re-shoot the part...
the one spot from up here.
They're never actually gonna get
to the point of the love scene
where they take it off.
- It's not cable.
- Okay. Alright. It's not cable.
This bed needs... some light.
Oh my gosh, I cannot wait
to tell you about...
I have been, luckily,
really busy, for one thing...
Copy that.
Oh my gosh, it's hilarious...
Ooh! Fuck!
I'm sorry, I just want
to let you know Mal's in makeup.
Did you talk to everybody?
Do they know what's going on?
Yes.
This girl, she's
just filing her nails.
Filing, filing, filing, so loud,
like so intentionally,
trying to just ruin my moment.
- It's weird.
- Yeah.
And I finally looked
at her and I said,
"Susan, if you do not stop filing
your fingernails right now,
I'm gonna walk over there and stab
you with your fingernail filer. "
I mean, the counselor
wasn't too jazzed about that
but it was a real moment.
And what's weird is
she came up to me afterwards,
and gave me this hug and said,
"Thank you.
You know, nobody has ever
stood up to me in my life, ever.
I really respect you for that. "
- That's great.
- Yeah. Thanks.
She's one of the few
that made it.
You know,
through the program, and...
- Hi
- Hi.
- How are ya feelin'?
- Fine, good.
So happy to see you here.
I'm truly grateful.
- You look beautiful
- Thank you.
- Alex, well done!
- Thanks!
Great palette
to start with, though.
You're sweet.
You can look at me.
It's gonna be a fine day.
I know it's gonna be hard,
but we can all do it.
- Mm hmm.
- Okay?
- See you in a few minutes.
- Okay.
Anyway, Susan and I actually still
keep in touch through email, so...
it's how I know that she's
on the good path, you know?
What's the ETA Da Silva,
Mal's out in five.
May the blessing
of light be upon you.
Light on the outside,
light on the inside.
- Hey everyone!
- Hey Zoe! How's it going?
Nice to meet you, I'm Zoe.
I don't know what's gonna happen
when Mal comes out.
I have no idea.
She was supposed
to still be in the war room.
So I had some sort
of control over this.
I don't know
what's gonna happen.
It was the best time ever?
Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah, I bet.
That's really nice.
Hi beauty! Here you go.
It's only one shot.
We'll finish in like half a day.
- Hey!
- You're out here?
I didn't know
you were out of makeup!
Why didn't you say something?
It's not a big deal.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Thank you so much for coming.
I can't tell you
how much I appreciate it.
Yeah, of course!
Good to be back.
- So Zoe's already on set.
- I noticed...
Let's just...
Let's just move in slowly,
shall we? Good?
Yeah. Mm hmm.
Alright guys, let's get
to first positions, please?
First positions everyone!
Zoe, to your mark
on the bed, please?
- That's interesting.
- Zoe.
- I mean...
- Zoe.
So let me just take you
this way for a second?
War room!
Kara, I don't even know
why you brought me in here.
- I brought you in... - I'm
an actress, she's an actress.
I've seen her many times before, just
like I deal with every other actor,
I can go out there,
and we can just do this thing...
Zoe, that's not!...
We know that you are not at
your optimum, performance-wise,
unless this big wall, this big
wall that you've just put up
is down.
I understand why the wall is up.
Because you need to protect yourself.
However, you will not be able
to perform with that wall up.
And you know how important
this beat is in the movie!
Right?
Hi.
- How are ya?
- Good.
- Good to see you.
- It's really good to see you.
And I just wanted to come over
and tell you that...
I admire your work, and feel
really lucky to have you
as a part of this production.
Thanks.
I'm glad someone feels that way.
We all feel that way.
I want you to know, everyone...
Yeah. I wouldn't go that far.
You know, everyone... deals with
broken hearts in their own way.
What did you say?
Sometimes it takes time to heal.
Things take time.
It's really good to see you.
You're gonna be great.
Let me know
if you need anything.
All we're doing now
is a rehearsal.
I just want to see that you guys
can be in the same space.
Okay. I will gather myself
and I will go out there,
and let the wall down
and open myself up
to all the hell
that I've been through... again!
You never know if something good
can come out of this day.
If you just stay open,
it's possible that you might
that you were not expecting
when you woke up this morning.
Enough said.
Just give me a second then,
and I will go on
and do that for you.
Alright.
Rehearsal's up!
It's like a cannon went off somewhere
that I just missed out on.
Does anybody actually know
what just happened?
'Cause unless I know something,
I don't know how to help you
and I want - so - much
to help you guys
figure out how to get
through this day
for all of us.
Did something happen
that I didn't see?
Did somebody
on the crew upset you,
did somebody say something...
Okay. Okay. Okay.
You got any ideas?
If everyone's open to it,
I'd like to try
to unify energies here
because, ultimately we all came
to finish this beautiful project
that we started.
Zoe, will you please
give me your hand?
Thank you so much.
Mal, can I have
your hand, please?
Create some synergy in the room.
Everyone breathe with me.
Is this a church
thing, or like...
Sounds like it's the beginning
of a Saint Anne event.
This is a little energy coherence
in the center of the room.
Thank you,
Hasslers!
Zoe, will you tell Mal one thing
that you admire about her?
She's
a really talented actress.
Mal, will you
tell Zoe something?
Zoe, you are...
the funniest person, ever.
And kind.
The girl can throw a football.
A perfect spiral, actually.
There we go. Thank you!
I admire you both immensely,
and would love
to see this come to fruition.
Thank you.
I'm gonna just let you guys
take a sec, okay?
- Thank you.
- We'll get back in a minute.
Just take a minute.
I'm sorry, Zoe.
I don't know what happened.
But I think we can do this.
Okay.
Hey, can I get an ETA?
How are you guys doin'?
Do you need a couple...
Okay, that is almost as weird as
what just happened on the bed.
You gotta roll with today.
Come here.
I want you to feel free
to just start playing with it.
We're gonna do
a couple of takes,
doesn't have to be
just right the first time.
- Right.
- See what feels natural.
- Okay.
- Okay?
We'll just keep going
and then...
- Exactly-
- Whatever, so.
Alright guys, we have time
for one before we go to lunch,
so let's get it in!
Thanks, Ben.
- Ready?
- Yes.
Let's get last looks in, please?
This stuff in two years you're
gonna find on someone's cat...
Zoe? Zoe.
Thanks, Alex.
Also, these earrings
are gonna be...
If they wear my ears out,
I'm not gonna be happy.
I end up looking
like Sister Rosaire.
- Who? -
I told you about her, I think.
She was crazy. Crazy woman?
Ladies? How ya feelin'?
You ready to go for one?
- Yeah.
- That's awesome.
Just get in first positions.
You both look stunning.
27, take one
Make sure to clear
your left shoulder of the hair.
Thank you.
- Okay.
- Okay.
So, breathe in...
Is this right, was I like this?
I think the left arm
was up a little bit...
Like that?
Was it pointing up?
Shannon, was it pointing up?
Her left arm? No, it's down.
Okay. Cool. That's great.
Yeah, but let's
shift down here...
I just gotta move
them real quick.
My nipple was just hanging out.
Totally!
She needs to move
a little bit back, right?
Kara?
Kara, could you help me out for a second?
Back up! A little bit more.
She needs to back up
a little, right?
Yep. Mal needs to go back
a little bit too.
Okay, Mal,
just back a little bit...
Yes.
So are Zoe and Mal
in good positions now?
Yeah, I'd like to see a little
bit more of Zoe's arm, though,
'cause we don't... it looks like
it's kind of stumpin' off there
How's that?
That's... that's good.
Okay. Alright!
Here we go, guys!
Sorry, sorry.
Alright everybody!
Picture is up, picture is up.
Hold on,
I just need a second here.
Awesome.
Breathe in, Ellie and Jordan,
And... action!
Hey.
I got pretty drunk last night.
Yeah. I had to save you.
You saved me?
Yeah.
I'm just checking in.
Are you comfortable
to try to go in
for that first kiss?
Mm hmm.
Whenever you're ready.
Ooh!
Okay, looks like we busted
a globe on that one.
Perfect timing!
Sorry guys.
That's lunch, guys, sorry!
That's okay, guys.
We'll pick up where we left off
right after lunch.
It's really good.
It's Taco Tuesday.
Taco Tuesday!
Alright, let's go.
My brothers
like to do, Packers,
whatever, like Green
Bay stuff uhm...
- which is great.
- Here, Mal. Go ahead.
Nah! They get to watch us gyrating
in lingerie, it's fine, go for it.
- Gyrate in lingerie?
- Uh huh.
Lunch before the naked scene.
Yeah, but I like it
'cause that's actually
like real people eat,
and then they get naked,
so maybe if you can see
like an outline
people might be like,
"I can relate to that person"
'cause theyre eating instead of like
supermodels or whatever they do.
- Thanks.
- More relatable. Yeah. For sure.
- Hello?
- Hey, Zoe.
- Hey, AJ.
- Hey Zoe.
- Hey Evan.
- How's it going?
Did you not get
the message about the audition...
No, yeah, I got that.
But I can't 'cause
I'm on set today,
so I just figured
you guys forgot.
What do you mean, you're on set?
You're on set where?
We don't have you booked.
No, just...
Yeah, I didn't mean that.
Just ADR for Caroline movie...
ADR for the Caroline movie, I don't
have you booked on anything.
- Yeah, actually just, uhm...
- We set up an audition for today.
No no no, let me call you back
in a minute.
Okay, I really need you
to make the audition.
- Okay, yeah, right.
- Just call me back!
Yeah, it's going well. It's...
Good! Were you able
to make a meeting?
I did, I did, I was able to push
my call time a little bit
and make a meeting in Burbank.
Which was really, really good.
Thank you for that advice.
- I feel centered...
- Oh, honey, of course.
And focused, so yeah!
Good, and I hear you're gonna be making
a little trip soon, somewhere...
Matt told you?
East? Bet you're excited.
Yeah! Yeah, I am.
I'm really excited.
I'm so happy for you.
Yeah, it's great!
I think it's gonna be really...
Really good.
- Yeah, be independent...
- Yeah, you know, get out of town,
experience a little bit
of change, you know?
Yeah. Uh huh. It's important.
It's so exciting, and I just feel
like it's such a good opportunity
for your acting too,
to get out there...
Yeah, you know what, Stephanie?
I'm sorry, can I just
call you back when I get done?
We just finished lunch, and I
don't wanna be that person.
No, it's fine, you
don't gotta explain, it's fine.
Alright, I love you, sweety.
I'll talk to you soon.
Okay. Alright. Bye Stephanie.
If that light hadn't popped,
we would have our master.
Then we'd be on... so I know
as soon as we get back,
as soon as they get back, we're
gonna be able to get it done.
So I need you to stop worrying.
Listen, I think
we should all agree right now
that next week we schedule a pick-up
day because I don't want...
Da Silva's gonna have
to sacrifice all the lighting
and we're not gonna be able
to match anything.
You know what?
We don't have to match!
What don't you understand...
Kara, can I talk to you?
Levi and Kieran,
can you please FO, right now?
I just got off the phone
with Evan and AJ,
and they're wondering
what I'm doing here
so I have a question
for you, Kara.
Is there a broadcast deal?
No.
What do you mean?
Look at me!
What... are you doing?
Well, um...
I don't know, I...
I don't even remember
what we were talking about.
I'm sorry.
- No, I, I...
- It's just a lot -
I want to let you know
that I really appreciate
sharing this space with you,
I have to say,
has been really lovely
and important to me.
Thank you...
I do.
'Cause I feel like
I'm often not seen.
Oh, baby... I see you, Anne.
I see you skipping
around on the set,
spreading happiness
to everyone...
I know, but I think
that some people just think,
I'm just like,
I'm like 'nice Anne',
like "go and see Anne, you know,
and have her get your coffee"
What-ever!
And that's okay, I mean,
I'm okay with that role
but it's really important
to me to be seen.
Last time we were on set
together, you know,
it was just amazing.
I mean, you keep it together!
You're such a force.
And today, especially.
I need to be a force!
You are a force!
You're such a force.
I do, well, I want to tell Kara that
I've been reading all of these books
trying to find
a good love story,
and I found one
that I want to option
Oh, wow!
And I want to partner
with her to direct it
but I'm afraid, you know, that
she won't respond well to that.
I really appreciate, value her,
and I need to do this.
Look, you guys have
been friends for...
like fifteen years?
Jesus. My god.
Fifteen years.
Really beautiful years, yeah.
Really powerful.
It's really amazing.
You know, to have someone
who's been able to see you grow
for such a long time, I mean...
Yeah. It's special.
It's very special.
Look at me!
I... I lied.
I did.
I need you
to understand something.
I know you were inside it,
but I had to watch you
for three weeks crying,
not eating, not sleeping.
You know how many hours that is?
Do you know how many nights I
couldn't sleep listening to you?
The only thing
that you were consistent in,
the only thing, you said it
like a hundred times:
"If only we could
be in the same room. "
Do you remember that?
And once I realized
this was not gonna pass,
I did the only thing
that I could do.
So guess what?
Now you're in the same room.
And now I'm supposed to lie.
What am I supposed to do now?
I'm an honest person.
People know me for that.
How am I supposed
to do this day?
You didn't make
this happen, I did!
You didn't lie.
You just have
to make a choice now.
And I'm gonna support you,
no matter what.
I did what I did.
I can't undo it.
I can't turn back time.
It could be the worst
thing I ever did.
But it might be the best.
But anything worth doing in life
requires taking a risk.
If you stay in your comfort zone
you never get anywhere.
I wanna be in it.
I wanna be in your project.
You got me in!
Thank you so much.
Do you mind if I share
a quote with you?
I didn't, I found it in part
of my research for the movie,
but I'd love to read it to you.
Please.
Love is largely self-generated,
and falling in love is a process
Stendhal calls crystallization.
Before you fall in love, you see
the other person as a bare branch.
As you fall, you coat him or her
with jeweled attractions,
about 80% of your own making.
That's...
I don't know, it seemed
pertinent. It seemed relevant.
No, no, it's great.
What does it mean to you?
Well, that love is
so interesting, you know?
I think that 80% of what exists
between two people
is sort of put on
and everything else
in between is what's real,
and idealization or anger
or whatever it is,
it's the thing in between, that
thing that is absolutely inherent,
that is the truth,
and it's about going for that,
that gut level thing.
Does it mean anything to you?
- Yes.
- Okay.
It's a lot, it's a lot
to get into, but...
love is... it's such a high.
It is, yeah.
It's such a high,
and if you're someone
who seeks highs, it's easy to...
I think that's something
to listen to and appreciate.
Everybody's journey
is their own.
It's also very special.
It only comes around once, maybe
or very few times.
Thank you for this conversation.
I'm so sorry, I just need
to check in on Kara.
Yeah, thank you.
Thank you. It's great to share
this space with you, Anne.
And just remember,
just ask for what you want.
It's worth it.
It is.
- Okay. Thank you.
- Alright.
I'll be here if they need me.
- Hi.
- Hi...
I made your special tea. It's blue jasmine.
You love blue jasmine.
Oh, thank you sweetie.
That's very sweet.
I'm just gonna eat
this first, thanks.
I didn't eat lunch
and my stomach's not...
You should eat, of course!
Listen, I know how important...
I might need you to do this,
later, if you don't mind
I will, absolutely, absolutely.
I'm like so stressed...
I know how important
this broadcast deal is to you.
We have to get it today.
We will!
Okay? Mal's leaving to go to
Chicago for a play for six months.
I overheard her talking to her
sponsor, and I confirmed it with her,
and she said it's absolute,
there's no way out of it.
Well, a play in Chicago when?
Next week.
We've gotta pull it in.
Okay.
Okay, that's... you know what?
That's terrible. It's
absolutely fucking terrible!
It's terrible!
I don't even know
what to do with that.
Hey Zoe.
My god, are you okay?
You okay?
Is this like the last time?
Okay, we got this.
It's getting worse.
Yeah. Through your nose.
Try it.
Come on.
Hey!
She's just having a moment.
- I got this, I know this...
- Just a second, okay?
Can I just... thank you so much.
Hey sweetheart.
What can I do for you?
Do you wanna...
Let's open you up, okay?
Shhh.
Okay.
Cool water, blue skies...
Clear blue skies.
Nice fluffy clouds.
Yeah babe.
What happened?
She's having a little
trouble breathing.
If you could get
some water, okay?
I'll be right back, sweetheart!
Okay.
Keep an eye on her.
Oooh...
Kara! Holy cow!
Oh my god!
What are we gonna do? Zoe's
having a nervous breakdown.
We haven't gotten
a shot all day.
They're acting
like complete idiots!
What are you doing right now?
Oh, it feels good.
Are you listening
to me right now?
You know what? We're so done.
Ow! Oh! Aah!
You need to get it together.
You need to get it... together!
I'm serious!
Why are you laughing at me?
Did you just clap in my face?
What are you laughing at?
Get it together!
I don't know what to do. You're
the leader, the ship's sinking,
Get it together!
I'm not kidding!
I'm gonna be out there and
you're gonna tell me what to do.
I'm waiting for you!
Just you and me, Zoe, okay? I'm not
leaving till you're okay, alright?
I'm not gonna leave. I'm not
going to leave, Zoe, alright?
Now, just look at me.
Look at me and breathe.
I can't open my hands,
I can't. I really can't.
You can. You really can.
Give me your hands.
There you go!
That's it, that's it.
You got this. You got this.
Stay with me.
Okay.
You can do it.
Just you and me.
Just like before.
- Sweety,...
- Come with me.
What happened?
I'll tell you right now,
what happened.
- Anne told me you...
- Just listen to me, please.
Okay.
Mal just kissed me.
- Well, that sounds...
- So I'm wondering right now,
She is a really good actress.
And I don't know if she's playing...
I don't know if Mal is being
kissing Zoe as Mal, or if Mal
is being Jordan kissing Ellie
to get through this day.
Okay, you're making
yourself sick...
- Because I know...
- Okay, alright.
There is no way that Mal as anybody,
whether it's herself or Jordan,
There is no way she's gonna kiss
you unless Mal wanted to kiss you.
I am telling you that right now.
There's no fucking way.
Everyone, we're back in!
She kissed you!
We're back in from lunch.
I mean, isn't that amazing?
Alright, so let's tie
this down,
and like put a little 250 there
to soften it up.
I don't know what to do.
We need to get
them out here now.
We gotta get going.
I know, I know,
we gotta get this today.
We're not gonna make this day if
people keep hiding in rooms all day.
Look, think about this.
Where did you
first fall in love?
In the movie.
In the love scene.
I saw it! We all saw it.
You were right there, and you
switched from Ellie to Zoe
and she switched from Jordan to
Mal at the same fucking time!
And I got that, and I can't tell
you how many times I watched it!
Okay. Just can you...
Okay, I'm sorry. I'm sorry,
I know we talked about this,
we weren't gonna get emotional,
but listen.
I want you to at least try
for your happy ending.
Hey, does anyone
have eyes on Mal?
Mal, does anyone
have eyes on Mal?
I want you to go out there,
and I want you to get in bed
with the love of your life, and
just take a shot at a happy ending.
Just try, okay? Just try.
Can you just please try?
Alright, guys.
Let's get ready
to go for a take!
Picture is up.
Rolling, rolling.
Roll sound.
Roll camera.
Set.
Action.
I got really drunk last night.
- Yeah, you did.
- Yeah.
How's your head?
Same.
I saved you, you know.
PR guys?
All over you.
And, cut.
That's a cut.
That's amazing.
We moved on?
Yeah, moving on.
We are moving on. Thank god.
Alright, so Mal and Zoe,
you guys can take 15.
We're gonna reset
and move in for coverage.
- Well done!
- It was beautiful!
- I know.
- Fantastic!
Nice job guys, nice job ladies.
Yeah, that was the first
successful shot...
Hey, shh, shh! Golly!
Fantastic job, well done ladies!
So just try to relax
for a few minutes, okay?
Okay, I have
a confession to make.
Okay.
Remember that song
from last summer?
That we were like,
obsessed with?
That song was stuck in my head like
the entire time we were doing that.
It's like you know, when you get
a song stuck in your head
and it's like argh!
When Frank and Jess came over?
Yeah! So good.
Stupid.
So good.
I almost lost it a few times.
- I'll find it.
- You have it?
Yeah.
That was it, that was the one!
So pick it up, pick it up
Sorry.
Do you need a minute?
Zoe,
Look. I'm sorry.
- Hon, look at me.
- I don't know.
Don't do that, please.
Is that why you...
Oh!
Zoe, I wanna have this conversation,
I really do, but does it...
You know, actually?
I came here today
excited to see you,
nervous to see you,
and you know what?
Now that I'm with you,
right now,
and you're having
moments of fun with me,
I'm actually standing
right here, outside of myself,
protecting myself and finding
myself being really angry.
And I have no idea
why you walked out
and gave me no explanation.
So you know, I really want you
to start talking right now.
And give me the explanation
that I deserve.
Zoe...
As a good fucking person.
Who loves you.
You really wanna do this here?
Yeah, I do.
Because I deserve that.
Okay!
Okay.
You're right.
Fresh out of rehab,
I was vulnerable
and...
I wasn't vulnerable, just
because I didn't go to rehab?
Just listen, you want an
explanation, are you gonna listen?
You knew going into this
who you were going into it with.
You knew you were going
into it with an addict.
That's who I am, okay?
It's taken me a long time
to come to terms with that,
but that's who I am.
So it's my fault?
- No, listen.
- It's my fault.
You want me to talk,
or you want me to stop talking?
Part of the recovery process is really
learning to know oneself, and...
Honestly, I respect you and Stephanie
and whatever your thing is,
but like when you push me out
and make me the bad guy,
how am I really
supposed to react?
- Okay...
- This is so unfair!
- That is so selfish!
- Yeah?
- Yeah, it is, it's fucking selfish!
- You wanna talk about selfish?
You were pulling away.
I saw it.
I saw it.
I was watching it happening.
- You were...
- I was pulling away?
- Yeah, you were pulling away.
- Give me an example right now!
Tell me right now!
Tell me right now!
Okay. You were backing out
of the relationship
Last party we went to together...
Are you talking
about the premiere?
When you left me?
You let that producer
just pull you away.
I understand,
now listen, I understand!
You're comparing
a physical thing...
You let it happen!
You just walked away.
And you know what? It's just an
analogy of our fucking rela...
It's always about you!
You're so, so selfish.
Yeah?
You're the most selfish person
I've ever met.
Did you see that?
- I did see it.
- Did you? Aah!
- The chemistry...
- Alright now, calm down.
Watch out for these cords.
I don't know why
they're still here!
Gonna get the love scene...
You just don't fuckin' listen!
- You did that to me!
- No.
Yes! You're the one
that pulled away from me,
And I'm so sick of...
You know what,
I tried to fucking...
What is going on here?
What is wrong with you two?
Honestly, this really
has nothing to do with you guys.
Can you please, I'm sorry Anne,
but like Kara and Anne,
please fuck off right now!
Can you just go?
Please go.
No, you know what,
I can't just go, Mal.
I really can't just go.
Is this love,
or is this not love?
Do you love her? Are you in
love, or are you not in love?
Kara, can we please
not do this right now?
This is really inappropriate.
Are you in love with Mal? Zoe.
Not right now.
Are you in love with Mal?
Mal, are you in love with Zoe?
I just need to know.
This is none
of your fucking business.
No! Is this love,
or is this not love?
This is a conversation
between myself and Zoe,
Go home!
We're gonna pack your stuff.
The day is done.
You packed your stuff.
We are done!
What about the broadcast deal?
We all need to come
together here!
You know what?
There is no broadcast deal.
I made it up, I made it up so that you
two could magically get back together
and I could actually feel that
true love really does exist!
Because I wanted true love to
actually fucking win out just once!
Aaargh!
You know what, Kara?
You really need to go now.
Now you really need to go.
You really need to go.
- Do I really need to go?
- You really need to go!
Get out, get out!
Grow up!
Aaah!
Kieran, we're wrapped.
We're going home.
For the day. Just wrap it.
Wrap wrap wrap, done done done.
Everybody goes home.
Sorry guys!
Everybody's going home.
Alright guys, I guess
that's a wrap for tonight.
Just make it safe, alright?
And we'll finish in the morning.
You want the truth, Zoe?
You want the fucking truth?
I got scared that you
were just gonna leave me!
You had one foot out the door,
and I got fucking scared!
And you know
what that feels like?
To be left? Yeah, you do
actually, because you know what?
In reality Mal,
you turned into your mother,
and I turned into you, so yeah,
I actually know how you feel!
Because you turned
into your mom and you left me,
so you know what?
Congratulations.
You've turned into the person
that you hate the most.
Fuck - you!
Yeah, fuck you!
Fuck you!
Worst decision of my life!
I am so deeply,
deeply disappointed.
Why didn't you
tell me the truth?
I've been your partner
in this for 15 years.
I think you should have enough love
for me to tell me what's going on!
Mal, I didn't mean to say the
stuff about your mom, I'm sorry!
I promised I would never do that!
I'm sorry Mal!
You said it, you said it!
Mal, I'm sorry! I didn't mean
to say that about your mom!
I really didn't,
I'm sorry I said something
I didn't even mean.
Zoe! You need to leave.
Just go away!
Mal, can you please come out of
the bathroom and talk to me, Mal?
No!
No, no no, no, you know what?
You know what?
Zoe? This is fucking over.
It's over, okay!
It's too far...
That's it?
That's it, really?
Really?
Mal, please come out
of the bathroom and talk to me!
You're my family, Mal!
You're all I care about!
Please don't do this to me!
And please don't
do this to yourself!
Please!
I really love you.
And I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
I didn't mean
to make you feel this way.
We can't hurt each other
like this anymore!
Okay, Zoe? It's too much!
It's too much!
And I can't, I can't do it!
I can't!
Hello?
Hey, Stephanie. It's Zoe.
Yeah, just letting you know,
If you could just come get Mal,
she really probably needs you
but I gotta go,
so I'll talk to you later.
Okay. I'm on my way.
I love you so deeply...
and I know it's ridiculous,
but I'm so full of it!
I'm so full of it for you, and I
can't keep it inside anymore.
But I want you to see me.
I want you to tell me the truth.
I want to be creative
partners with you.
You think that I don't see you?
Is that what you think?
God, you are amazing!
I'm your biggest fan!
- See you guys.
- Good night!
My god, Zoe!
And B mark
Action.
Boom!
- Is that clear?
- Yes.
Roll over on top of her.
Stay on her for a moment,
we'll get what we can.
Or do you want me
straddling her, sitting up?
- Just like this?
- Yeah.
Do that again,
just hand up at the top and...
Does this arm look awkward?
We're not
gonna be able to see it.
And make the decision
to take your bra off.
- Do that...
- Ha, like every time.
I know. Just bring
some action into it, ladies.
Okay.
We only see
from shoulders down.
- We don't even see that...
- Shoulders down?
- Shoulders up.
- Shoulders up.
- Yeah, that's all we see.
- Okay.
So it's all about your facial
response and reaction right now.
Okay.
A set!
Back at it!
Whenever you're ready.
Roll to the right
and bring your left leg
back over her butt crack.
- Is that it?
- Yes.
Oh. Sorry!
So I'm back up on your ass!
Yeah, and just try
to cheat this up a little bit.
Just do a little feet love.
Some foot love, babies.
Yeah!
For all those foot enthusiasts
out there.
Okay, and tell me
when you want me to finger her.
Don't worry, I will.
- You can be in charge of that.
- Alright. Finger Captain.
- We're all friends here.
- Yeah, that's good.
Let me pull
this little piece of bra up
Just there.
Just so we can see what it is.
Alright. Just make sure
you keep this hip back.
Are we set?
Set.
And... action!
Come on!
- Are you okay?
- Mm hmm.
- Yeah?
- Yeah. Actually my contacts hurt.
Try and sniff a couple of times.
- It'll drain the tear ducts.
- Thank you.
- Thank you, Alex.
- Sure.
I wanna show you,
it's really exciting
what Ben's done
with the war room.
Oh, man, I wanted to finish
before you guys got here!
- This is amazing!
- How are you?
- It's so good to see you!
- Good to see you too!
Wow, I love the fabric!
- I know, a little twinkle...
I love you so much...
- Stop it...
- I do.
Little touch of magic.
You're always good for that.
- I want you to feel comfortable...
- Anne and twinkle lights.
Ping!
Okay, well, you guys do your thing.
I'm gonna go set up the bedroom.
I'll be up to check it out
in a second.
I've been noticing this on your hand.
I've never seen this before.
- Um... it's just...
- Wait, wait, wait.
I'm feeling there's some
special energy about this.
What... no, I'm really...
What is in here?
No, Kara, honestly,
give this back!
I'm sorry, no secrets!
I'll share this with you later.
I'm gonna go check on the crew.
Okay... no, wait, wait wait!
You're not zipped.
Hold on. Come here.
I have a problem finishing.
- I'm gonna do the wide of that.
- Yeah.
Ben looks like he has
everything under control.
- Okay, but did he check the Polaroid?
- He checked the Polaroid.
'Cause if the bedside table doesn't
match, it's gonna drive me crazy.
It will match.
We're taking care of it.
- All right.
- So that looks good.
So you know what?
Can you guys handle the rest?
I really have to check on Zoe.
I'm feeling very angsty.
There are a few things
I need to go over with you.
You guys can deal
with it, right?
You guys.
Kieran, can you have
somebody move this?
Hey! There she is.
How's my girl?
Good!
Just remember
to be yourself today.
That's all
you need to worry about.
I mean, I'll tell you right now,
'cause Mal is not coming,
and I mean, she just
doesn't care about your thing,
she doesn't care about me,
she doesn't care about you,
like, she's not
gonna actually show up,
so I'm actually okay, because I
know she's not going to be here.
- She has to come.
- She didn't have to come.
- She kinda has to come.
- Okay, we'll see.
- I'll check back later, okay?
- Mm hmm.
Guys, I need her out in ten!
- Hey...
- Zoe's just a mess.
Kieran wants to know why
Mal's call time was pushed back.
It's a personal thing.
I talked to her last night.
Which is actually really good,
because Zoe came in late
and she's still
in the makeup chair.
They would have totally
run into each other.
Tell me we're gonna
get through this.
How are we gonna
get through this?
We're gonna get through this.
Can you... just pray a lot.
- Okay.
- Okay?
Hey, can I get
a stand-in, please?
Her favorite part
is standing in.
Oh, absolutely stunning.
It's lovely.
Can you actually stop,
so I can look at the lighting?
Oh, yes, I know. Hi!
Okay, alright. Just stay still.
Can you just sit...
lay in the center of the bed
and lay still,
and look up at the camera
Hey, Justin, I feel like last time
it was a little more shadowy,
just a little more intimate.
Not quite so... bright.
More shadows.
Can we do something about that?
Yeah, sure. Hey,
Kevin, can we look into that?
Yeah, no problem.
Hey, honey! How are you?
- I'm fine.
- Really?
Yeah, I'm on Wilson
Alright. Well, you know,
you're almost here,
so just look for the...
there's no number on the
building so it's a little tough.
Just look for the big
metal garage door.
Okay...
Okay. Alright. Just breathe.
- Bye
- Bye
Fuck!
Hey hey, we gotta go!
Come.
We gotta get Zoe out of makeup.
Let's go, let's go.
Cause Mal is almost...
- Hey, guys!
- Hey, how's it going?
Hey, you're new. I'm Zoe.
Hi, I'm Kevin.
Very nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you, Kevin.
- Hey, how's it going?
- You look amazing.
You're like glowing. You look like a
blond Audrey Hepburn or something.
- Your skin looks beautiful.
- Thank you! Thank you!
Exactly right! I can't believe
I didn't say that before.
- You look amazing.
- Thank you!
Alright, I wanna
show you something?
- Hey, how's it going?
- How's it going? Good to see you.
Alright.
Ben gave me a war room.
Since there's no space here?
Look what he did.
Since we don't have
a trailer for you today,
let's go in...
so we can chat for a minute.
What do you think?
It's nice, right?
Yeah. It's
actually really nice.
I know, it's kind of better than
the actual room we had last time.
I like it. He did a good job.
Yeah.
Definitely did a good job.
So, how are you
feeling, baby girl?
Okay.
You doing your breathing?
I see you're drinking water,
that's awesome.
I know, I know! I'm nervous.
I'm so fucking nervous.
But it's all good,
it's so good.
You're gonna... you know,
knock it out of the park
like you always do.
Can people just not,
like mention anything?
Nobody's gonna...
you're taking lead.
If you want to talk
to people, you do.
If you don't want to,
you have this space to come to.
That's why it's here. Okay?
Look at the big comfy chair.
It's for you!
You know I don't sit.
Alright, so...
I'm gonna take
care of you today.
You know that, right?
You need anything...
at any moment...
You come to me.
Don't go to anybody else.
Alright?
I gotta go check on things.
- I'll be back.
- Okay.
I love you. I love you.
Hello!
Something's wrong
with this room.
Are you talking about the walls?
- That's part of it.
- There's not art on the wall and stuff?
Yeah! Where are the walls?
Oh, oh, okay. I get it,
So here's what's happening.
Remember the broadcast deal
we talked about?
Just to go over this again,
for the broadcast deal,
we have to have
the part of the love scene
that was filmed with nudity,
It's sort of doing a PG-13
version of the love scene.
So basically,
everything we have right now
before they get in bed
is perfect.
Everything after
they get out of bed, perfect.
We only need
to re-shoot the part...
the one spot from up here.
They're never actually gonna get
to the point of the love scene
where they take it off.
- It's not cable.
- Okay. Alright. It's not cable.
This bed needs... some light.
Oh my gosh, I cannot wait
to tell you about...
I have been, luckily,
really busy, for one thing...
Copy that.
Oh my gosh, it's hilarious...
Ooh! Fuck!
I'm sorry, I just want
to let you know Mal's in makeup.
Did you talk to everybody?
Do they know what's going on?
Yes.
This girl, she's
just filing her nails.
Filing, filing, filing, so loud,
like so intentionally,
trying to just ruin my moment.
- It's weird.
- Yeah.
And I finally looked
at her and I said,
"Susan, if you do not stop filing
your fingernails right now,
I'm gonna walk over there and stab
you with your fingernail filer. "
I mean, the counselor
wasn't too jazzed about that
but it was a real moment.
And what's weird is
she came up to me afterwards,
and gave me this hug and said,
"Thank you.
You know, nobody has ever
stood up to me in my life, ever.
I really respect you for that. "
- That's great.
- Yeah. Thanks.
She's one of the few
that made it.
You know,
through the program, and...
- Hi
- Hi.
- How are ya feelin'?
- Fine, good.
So happy to see you here.
I'm truly grateful.
- You look beautiful
- Thank you.
- Alex, well done!
- Thanks!
Great palette
to start with, though.
You're sweet.
You can look at me.
It's gonna be a fine day.
I know it's gonna be hard,
but we can all do it.
- Mm hmm.
- Okay?
- See you in a few minutes.
- Okay.
Anyway, Susan and I actually still
keep in touch through email, so...
it's how I know that she's
on the good path, you know?
What's the ETA Da Silva,
Mal's out in five.
May the blessing
of light be upon you.
Light on the outside,
light on the inside.
- Hey everyone!
- Hey Zoe! How's it going?
Nice to meet you, I'm Zoe.
I don't know what's gonna happen
when Mal comes out.
I have no idea.
She was supposed
to still be in the war room.
So I had some sort
of control over this.
I don't know
what's gonna happen.
It was the best time ever?
Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah, I bet.
That's really nice.
Hi beauty! Here you go.
It's only one shot.
We'll finish in like half a day.
- Hey!
- You're out here?
I didn't know
you were out of makeup!
Why didn't you say something?
It's not a big deal.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Thank you so much for coming.
I can't tell you
how much I appreciate it.
Yeah, of course!
Good to be back.
- So Zoe's already on set.
- I noticed...
Let's just...
Let's just move in slowly,
shall we? Good?
Yeah. Mm hmm.
Alright guys, let's get
to first positions, please?
First positions everyone!
Zoe, to your mark
on the bed, please?
- That's interesting.
- Zoe.
- I mean...
- Zoe.
So let me just take you
this way for a second?
War room!
Kara, I don't even know
why you brought me in here.
- I brought you in... - I'm
an actress, she's an actress.
I've seen her many times before, just
like I deal with every other actor,
I can go out there,
and we can just do this thing...
Zoe, that's not!...
We know that you are not at
your optimum, performance-wise,
unless this big wall, this big
wall that you've just put up
is down.
I understand why the wall is up.
Because you need to protect yourself.
However, you will not be able
to perform with that wall up.
And you know how important
this beat is in the movie!
Right?
Hi.
- How are ya?
- Good.
- Good to see you.
- It's really good to see you.
And I just wanted to come over
and tell you that...
I admire your work, and feel
really lucky to have you
as a part of this production.
Thanks.
I'm glad someone feels that way.
We all feel that way.
I want you to know, everyone...
Yeah. I wouldn't go that far.
You know, everyone... deals with
broken hearts in their own way.
What did you say?
Sometimes it takes time to heal.
Things take time.
It's really good to see you.
You're gonna be great.
Let me know
if you need anything.
All we're doing now
is a rehearsal.
I just want to see that you guys
can be in the same space.
Okay. I will gather myself
and I will go out there,
and let the wall down
and open myself up
to all the hell
that I've been through... again!
You never know if something good
can come out of this day.
If you just stay open,
it's possible that you might
that you were not expecting
when you woke up this morning.
Enough said.
Just give me a second then,
and I will go on
and do that for you.
Alright.
Rehearsal's up!
It's like a cannon went off somewhere
that I just missed out on.
Does anybody actually know
what just happened?
'Cause unless I know something,
I don't know how to help you
and I want - so - much
to help you guys
figure out how to get
through this day
for all of us.
Did something happen
that I didn't see?
Did somebody
on the crew upset you,
did somebody say something...
Okay. Okay. Okay.
You got any ideas?
If everyone's open to it,
I'd like to try
to unify energies here
because, ultimately we all came
to finish this beautiful project
that we started.
Zoe, will you please
give me your hand?
Thank you so much.
Mal, can I have
your hand, please?
Create some synergy in the room.
Everyone breathe with me.
Is this a church
thing, or like...
Sounds like it's the beginning
of a Saint Anne event.
This is a little energy coherence
in the center of the room.
Thank you,
Hasslers!
Zoe, will you tell Mal one thing
that you admire about her?
She's
a really talented actress.
Mal, will you
tell Zoe something?
Zoe, you are...
the funniest person, ever.
And kind.
The girl can throw a football.
A perfect spiral, actually.
There we go. Thank you!
I admire you both immensely,
and would love
to see this come to fruition.
Thank you.
I'm gonna just let you guys
take a sec, okay?
- Thank you.
- We'll get back in a minute.
Just take a minute.
I'm sorry, Zoe.
I don't know what happened.
But I think we can do this.
Okay.
Hey, can I get an ETA?
How are you guys doin'?
Do you need a couple...
Okay, that is almost as weird as
what just happened on the bed.
You gotta roll with today.
Come here.
I want you to feel free
to just start playing with it.
We're gonna do
a couple of takes,
doesn't have to be
just right the first time.
- Right.
- See what feels natural.
- Okay.
- Okay?
We'll just keep going
and then...
- Exactly-
- Whatever, so.
Alright guys, we have time
for one before we go to lunch,
so let's get it in!
Thanks, Ben.
- Ready?
- Yes.
Let's get last looks in, please?
This stuff in two years you're
gonna find on someone's cat...
Zoe? Zoe.
Thanks, Alex.
Also, these earrings
are gonna be...
If they wear my ears out,
I'm not gonna be happy.
I end up looking
like Sister Rosaire.
- Who? -
I told you about her, I think.
She was crazy. Crazy woman?
Ladies? How ya feelin'?
You ready to go for one?
- Yeah.
- That's awesome.
Just get in first positions.
You both look stunning.
27, take one
Make sure to clear
your left shoulder of the hair.
Thank you.
- Okay.
- Okay.
So, breathe in...
Is this right, was I like this?
I think the left arm
was up a little bit...
Like that?
Was it pointing up?
Shannon, was it pointing up?
Her left arm? No, it's down.
Okay. Cool. That's great.
Yeah, but let's
shift down here...
I just gotta move
them real quick.
My nipple was just hanging out.
Totally!
She needs to move
a little bit back, right?
Kara?
Kara, could you help me out for a second?
Back up! A little bit more.
She needs to back up
a little, right?
Yep. Mal needs to go back
a little bit too.
Okay, Mal,
just back a little bit...
Yes.
So are Zoe and Mal
in good positions now?
Yeah, I'd like to see a little
bit more of Zoe's arm, though,
'cause we don't... it looks like
it's kind of stumpin' off there
How's that?
That's... that's good.
Okay. Alright!
Here we go, guys!
Sorry, sorry.
Alright everybody!
Picture is up, picture is up.
Hold on,
I just need a second here.
Awesome.
Breathe in, Ellie and Jordan,
And... action!
Hey.
I got pretty drunk last night.
Yeah. I had to save you.
You saved me?
Yeah.
I'm just checking in.
Are you comfortable
to try to go in
for that first kiss?
Mm hmm.
Whenever you're ready.
Ooh!
Okay, looks like we busted
a globe on that one.
Perfect timing!
Sorry guys.
That's lunch, guys, sorry!
That's okay, guys.
We'll pick up where we left off
right after lunch.
It's really good.
It's Taco Tuesday.
Taco Tuesday!
Alright, let's go.
My brothers
like to do, Packers,
whatever, like Green
Bay stuff uhm...
- which is great.
- Here, Mal. Go ahead.
Nah! They get to watch us gyrating
in lingerie, it's fine, go for it.
- Gyrate in lingerie?
- Uh huh.
Lunch before the naked scene.
Yeah, but I like it
'cause that's actually
like real people eat,
and then they get naked,
so maybe if you can see
like an outline
people might be like,
"I can relate to that person"
'cause theyre eating instead of like
supermodels or whatever they do.
- Thanks.
- More relatable. Yeah. For sure.
- Hello?
- Hey, Zoe.
- Hey, AJ.
- Hey Zoe.
- Hey Evan.
- How's it going?
Did you not get
the message about the audition...
No, yeah, I got that.
But I can't 'cause
I'm on set today,
so I just figured
you guys forgot.
What do you mean, you're on set?
You're on set where?
We don't have you booked.
No, just...
Yeah, I didn't mean that.
Just ADR for Caroline movie...
ADR for the Caroline movie, I don't
have you booked on anything.
- Yeah, actually just, uhm...
- We set up an audition for today.
No no no, let me call you back
in a minute.
Okay, I really need you
to make the audition.
- Okay, yeah, right.
- Just call me back!
Yeah, it's going well. It's...
Good! Were you able
to make a meeting?
I did, I did, I was able to push
my call time a little bit
and make a meeting in Burbank.
Which was really, really good.
Thank you for that advice.
- I feel centered...
- Oh, honey, of course.
And focused, so yeah!
Good, and I hear you're gonna be making
a little trip soon, somewhere...
Matt told you?
East? Bet you're excited.
Yeah! Yeah, I am.
I'm really excited.
I'm so happy for you.
Yeah, it's great!
I think it's gonna be really...
Really good.
- Yeah, be independent...
- Yeah, you know, get out of town,
experience a little bit
of change, you know?
Yeah. Uh huh. It's important.
It's so exciting, and I just feel
like it's such a good opportunity
for your acting too,
to get out there...
Yeah, you know what, Stephanie?
I'm sorry, can I just
call you back when I get done?
We just finished lunch, and I
don't wanna be that person.
No, it's fine, you
don't gotta explain, it's fine.
Alright, I love you, sweety.
I'll talk to you soon.
Okay. Alright. Bye Stephanie.
If that light hadn't popped,
we would have our master.
Then we'd be on... so I know
as soon as we get back,
as soon as they get back, we're
gonna be able to get it done.
So I need you to stop worrying.
Listen, I think
we should all agree right now
that next week we schedule a pick-up
day because I don't want...
Da Silva's gonna have
to sacrifice all the lighting
and we're not gonna be able
to match anything.
You know what?
We don't have to match!
What don't you understand...
Kara, can I talk to you?
Levi and Kieran,
can you please FO, right now?
I just got off the phone
with Evan and AJ,
and they're wondering
what I'm doing here
so I have a question
for you, Kara.
Is there a broadcast deal?
No.
What do you mean?
Look at me!
What... are you doing?
Well, um...
I don't know, I...
I don't even remember
what we were talking about.
I'm sorry.
- No, I, I...
- It's just a lot -
I want to let you know
that I really appreciate
sharing this space with you,
I have to say,
has been really lovely
and important to me.
Thank you...
I do.
'Cause I feel like
I'm often not seen.
Oh, baby... I see you, Anne.
I see you skipping
around on the set,
spreading happiness
to everyone...
I know, but I think
that some people just think,
I'm just like,
I'm like 'nice Anne',
like "go and see Anne, you know,
and have her get your coffee"
What-ever!
And that's okay, I mean,
I'm okay with that role
but it's really important
to me to be seen.
Last time we were on set
together, you know,
it was just amazing.
I mean, you keep it together!
You're such a force.
And today, especially.
I need to be a force!
You are a force!
You're such a force.
I do, well, I want to tell Kara that
I've been reading all of these books
trying to find
a good love story,
and I found one
that I want to option
Oh, wow!
And I want to partner
with her to direct it
but I'm afraid, you know, that
she won't respond well to that.
I really appreciate, value her,
and I need to do this.
Look, you guys have
been friends for...
like fifteen years?
Jesus. My god.
Fifteen years.
Really beautiful years, yeah.
Really powerful.
It's really amazing.
You know, to have someone
who's been able to see you grow
for such a long time, I mean...
Yeah. It's special.
It's very special.
Look at me!
I... I lied.
I did.
I need you
to understand something.
I know you were inside it,
but I had to watch you
for three weeks crying,
not eating, not sleeping.
You know how many hours that is?
Do you know how many nights I
couldn't sleep listening to you?
The only thing
that you were consistent in,
the only thing, you said it
like a hundred times:
"If only we could
be in the same room. "
Do you remember that?
And once I realized
this was not gonna pass,
I did the only thing
that I could do.
So guess what?
Now you're in the same room.
And now I'm supposed to lie.
What am I supposed to do now?
I'm an honest person.
People know me for that.
How am I supposed
to do this day?
You didn't make
this happen, I did!
You didn't lie.
You just have
to make a choice now.
And I'm gonna support you,
no matter what.
I did what I did.
I can't undo it.
I can't turn back time.
It could be the worst
thing I ever did.
But it might be the best.
But anything worth doing in life
requires taking a risk.
If you stay in your comfort zone
you never get anywhere.
I wanna be in it.
I wanna be in your project.
You got me in!
Thank you so much.
Do you mind if I share
a quote with you?
I didn't, I found it in part
of my research for the movie,
but I'd love to read it to you.
Please.
Love is largely self-generated,
and falling in love is a process
Stendhal calls crystallization.
Before you fall in love, you see
the other person as a bare branch.
As you fall, you coat him or her
with jeweled attractions,
about 80% of your own making.
That's...
I don't know, it seemed
pertinent. It seemed relevant.
No, no, it's great.
What does it mean to you?
Well, that love is
so interesting, you know?
I think that 80% of what exists
between two people
is sort of put on
and everything else
in between is what's real,
and idealization or anger
or whatever it is,
it's the thing in between, that
thing that is absolutely inherent,
that is the truth,
and it's about going for that,
that gut level thing.
Does it mean anything to you?
- Yes.
- Okay.
It's a lot, it's a lot
to get into, but...
love is... it's such a high.
It is, yeah.
It's such a high,
and if you're someone
who seeks highs, it's easy to...
I think that's something
to listen to and appreciate.
Everybody's journey
is their own.
It's also very special.
It only comes around once, maybe
or very few times.
Thank you for this conversation.
I'm so sorry, I just need
to check in on Kara.
Yeah, thank you.
Thank you. It's great to share
this space with you, Anne.
And just remember,
just ask for what you want.
It's worth it.
It is.
- Okay. Thank you.
- Alright.
I'll be here if they need me.
- Hi.
- Hi...
I made your special tea. It's blue jasmine.
You love blue jasmine.
Oh, thank you sweetie.
That's very sweet.
I'm just gonna eat
this first, thanks.
I didn't eat lunch
and my stomach's not...
You should eat, of course!
Listen, I know how important...
I might need you to do this,
later, if you don't mind
I will, absolutely, absolutely.
I'm like so stressed...
I know how important
this broadcast deal is to you.
We have to get it today.
We will!
Okay? Mal's leaving to go to
Chicago for a play for six months.
I overheard her talking to her
sponsor, and I confirmed it with her,
and she said it's absolute,
there's no way out of it.
Well, a play in Chicago when?
Next week.
We've gotta pull it in.
Okay.
Okay, that's... you know what?
That's terrible. It's
absolutely fucking terrible!
It's terrible!
I don't even know
what to do with that.
Hey Zoe.
My god, are you okay?
You okay?
Is this like the last time?
Okay, we got this.
It's getting worse.
Yeah. Through your nose.
Try it.
Come on.
Hey!
She's just having a moment.
- I got this, I know this...
- Just a second, okay?
Can I just... thank you so much.
Hey sweetheart.
What can I do for you?
Do you wanna...
Let's open you up, okay?
Shhh.
Okay.
Cool water, blue skies...
Clear blue skies.
Nice fluffy clouds.
Yeah babe.
What happened?
She's having a little
trouble breathing.
If you could get
some water, okay?
I'll be right back, sweetheart!
Okay.
Keep an eye on her.
Oooh...
Kara! Holy cow!
Oh my god!
What are we gonna do? Zoe's
having a nervous breakdown.
We haven't gotten
a shot all day.
They're acting
like complete idiots!
What are you doing right now?
Oh, it feels good.
Are you listening
to me right now?
You know what? We're so done.
Ow! Oh! Aah!
You need to get it together.
You need to get it... together!
I'm serious!
Why are you laughing at me?
Did you just clap in my face?
What are you laughing at?
Get it together!
I don't know what to do. You're
the leader, the ship's sinking,
Get it together!
I'm not kidding!
I'm gonna be out there and
you're gonna tell me what to do.
I'm waiting for you!
Just you and me, Zoe, okay? I'm not
leaving till you're okay, alright?
I'm not gonna leave. I'm not
going to leave, Zoe, alright?
Now, just look at me.
Look at me and breathe.
I can't open my hands,
I can't. I really can't.
You can. You really can.
Give me your hands.
There you go!
That's it, that's it.
You got this. You got this.
Stay with me.
Okay.
You can do it.
Just you and me.
Just like before.
- Sweety,...
- Come with me.
What happened?
I'll tell you right now,
what happened.
- Anne told me you...
- Just listen to me, please.
Okay.
Mal just kissed me.
- Well, that sounds...
- So I'm wondering right now,
She is a really good actress.
And I don't know if she's playing...
I don't know if Mal is being
kissing Zoe as Mal, or if Mal
is being Jordan kissing Ellie
to get through this day.
Okay, you're making
yourself sick...
- Because I know...
- Okay, alright.
There is no way that Mal as anybody,
whether it's herself or Jordan,
There is no way she's gonna kiss
you unless Mal wanted to kiss you.
I am telling you that right now.
There's no fucking way.
Everyone, we're back in!
She kissed you!
We're back in from lunch.
I mean, isn't that amazing?
Alright, so let's tie
this down,
and like put a little 250 there
to soften it up.
I don't know what to do.
We need to get
them out here now.
We gotta get going.
I know, I know,
we gotta get this today.
We're not gonna make this day if
people keep hiding in rooms all day.
Look, think about this.
Where did you
first fall in love?
In the movie.
In the love scene.
I saw it! We all saw it.
You were right there, and you
switched from Ellie to Zoe
and she switched from Jordan to
Mal at the same fucking time!
And I got that, and I can't tell
you how many times I watched it!
Okay. Just can you...
Okay, I'm sorry. I'm sorry,
I know we talked about this,
we weren't gonna get emotional,
but listen.
I want you to at least try
for your happy ending.
Hey, does anyone
have eyes on Mal?
Mal, does anyone
have eyes on Mal?
I want you to go out there,
and I want you to get in bed
with the love of your life, and
just take a shot at a happy ending.
Just try, okay? Just try.
Can you just please try?
Alright, guys.
Let's get ready
to go for a take!
Picture is up.
Rolling, rolling.
Roll sound.
Roll camera.
Set.
Action.
I got really drunk last night.
- Yeah, you did.
- Yeah.
How's your head?
Same.
I saved you, you know.
PR guys?
All over you.
And, cut.
That's a cut.
That's amazing.
We moved on?
Yeah, moving on.
We are moving on. Thank god.
Alright, so Mal and Zoe,
you guys can take 15.
We're gonna reset
and move in for coverage.
- Well done!
- It was beautiful!
- I know.
- Fantastic!
Nice job guys, nice job ladies.
Yeah, that was the first
successful shot...
Hey, shh, shh! Golly!
Fantastic job, well done ladies!
So just try to relax
for a few minutes, okay?
Okay, I have
a confession to make.
Okay.
Remember that song
from last summer?
That we were like,
obsessed with?
That song was stuck in my head like
the entire time we were doing that.
It's like you know, when you get
a song stuck in your head
and it's like argh!
When Frank and Jess came over?
Yeah! So good.
Stupid.
So good.
I almost lost it a few times.
- I'll find it.
- You have it?
Yeah.
That was it, that was the one!
So pick it up, pick it up
Sorry.
Do you need a minute?
Zoe,
Look. I'm sorry.
- Hon, look at me.
- I don't know.
Don't do that, please.
Is that why you...
Oh!
Zoe, I wanna have this conversation,
I really do, but does it...
You know, actually?
I came here today
excited to see you,
nervous to see you,
and you know what?
Now that I'm with you,
right now,
and you're having
moments of fun with me,
I'm actually standing
right here, outside of myself,
protecting myself and finding
myself being really angry.
And I have no idea
why you walked out
and gave me no explanation.
So you know, I really want you
to start talking right now.
And give me the explanation
that I deserve.
Zoe...
As a good fucking person.
Who loves you.
You really wanna do this here?
Yeah, I do.
Because I deserve that.
Okay!
Okay.
You're right.
Fresh out of rehab,
I was vulnerable
and...
I wasn't vulnerable, just
because I didn't go to rehab?
Just listen, you want an
explanation, are you gonna listen?
You knew going into this
who you were going into it with.
You knew you were going
into it with an addict.
That's who I am, okay?
It's taken me a long time
to come to terms with that,
but that's who I am.
So it's my fault?
- No, listen.
- It's my fault.
You want me to talk,
or you want me to stop talking?
Part of the recovery process is really
learning to know oneself, and...
Honestly, I respect you and Stephanie
and whatever your thing is,
but like when you push me out
and make me the bad guy,
how am I really
supposed to react?
- Okay...
- This is so unfair!
- That is so selfish!
- Yeah?
- Yeah, it is, it's fucking selfish!
- You wanna talk about selfish?
You were pulling away.
I saw it.
I saw it.
I was watching it happening.
- You were...
- I was pulling away?
- Yeah, you were pulling away.
- Give me an example right now!
Tell me right now!
Tell me right now!
Okay. You were backing out
of the relationship
Last party we went to together...
Are you talking
about the premiere?
When you left me?
You let that producer
just pull you away.
I understand,
now listen, I understand!
You're comparing
a physical thing...
You let it happen!
You just walked away.
And you know what? It's just an
analogy of our fucking rela...
It's always about you!
You're so, so selfish.
Yeah?
You're the most selfish person
I've ever met.
Did you see that?
- I did see it.
- Did you? Aah!
- The chemistry...
- Alright now, calm down.
Watch out for these cords.
I don't know why
they're still here!
Gonna get the love scene...
You just don't fuckin' listen!
- You did that to me!
- No.
Yes! You're the one
that pulled away from me,
And I'm so sick of...
You know what,
I tried to fucking...
What is going on here?
What is wrong with you two?
Honestly, this really
has nothing to do with you guys.
Can you please, I'm sorry Anne,
but like Kara and Anne,
please fuck off right now!
Can you just go?
Please go.
No, you know what,
I can't just go, Mal.
I really can't just go.
Is this love,
or is this not love?
Do you love her? Are you in
love, or are you not in love?
Kara, can we please
not do this right now?
This is really inappropriate.
Are you in love with Mal? Zoe.
Not right now.
Are you in love with Mal?
Mal, are you in love with Zoe?
I just need to know.
This is none
of your fucking business.
No! Is this love,
or is this not love?
This is a conversation
between myself and Zoe,
Go home!
We're gonna pack your stuff.
The day is done.
You packed your stuff.
We are done!
What about the broadcast deal?
We all need to come
together here!
You know what?
There is no broadcast deal.
I made it up, I made it up so that you
two could magically get back together
and I could actually feel that
true love really does exist!
Because I wanted true love to
actually fucking win out just once!
Aaargh!
You know what, Kara?
You really need to go now.
Now you really need to go.
You really need to go.
- Do I really need to go?
- You really need to go!
Get out, get out!
Grow up!
Aaah!
Kieran, we're wrapped.
We're going home.
For the day. Just wrap it.
Wrap wrap wrap, done done done.
Everybody goes home.
Sorry guys!
Everybody's going home.
Alright guys, I guess
that's a wrap for tonight.
Just make it safe, alright?
And we'll finish in the morning.
You want the truth, Zoe?
You want the fucking truth?
I got scared that you
were just gonna leave me!
You had one foot out the door,
and I got fucking scared!
And you know
what that feels like?
To be left? Yeah, you do
actually, because you know what?
In reality Mal,
you turned into your mother,
and I turned into you, so yeah,
I actually know how you feel!
Because you turned
into your mom and you left me,
so you know what?
Congratulations.
You've turned into the person
that you hate the most.
Fuck - you!
Yeah, fuck you!
Fuck you!
Worst decision of my life!
I am so deeply,
deeply disappointed.
Why didn't you
tell me the truth?
I've been your partner
in this for 15 years.
I think you should have enough love
for me to tell me what's going on!
Mal, I didn't mean to say the
stuff about your mom, I'm sorry!
I promised I would never do that!
I'm sorry Mal!
You said it, you said it!
Mal, I'm sorry! I didn't mean
to say that about your mom!
I really didn't,
I'm sorry I said something
I didn't even mean.
Zoe! You need to leave.
Just go away!
Mal, can you please come out of
the bathroom and talk to me, Mal?
No!
No, no no, no, you know what?
You know what?
Zoe? This is fucking over.
It's over, okay!
It's too far...
That's it?
That's it, really?
Really?
Mal, please come out
of the bathroom and talk to me!
You're my family, Mal!
You're all I care about!
Please don't do this to me!
And please don't
do this to yourself!
Please!
I really love you.
And I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
I didn't mean
to make you feel this way.
We can't hurt each other
like this anymore!
Okay, Zoe? It's too much!
It's too much!
And I can't, I can't do it!
I can't!
Hello?
Hey, Stephanie. It's Zoe.
Yeah, just letting you know,
If you could just come get Mal,
she really probably needs you
but I gotta go,
so I'll talk to you later.
Okay. I'm on my way.
I love you so deeply...
and I know it's ridiculous,
but I'm so full of it!
I'm so full of it for you, and I
can't keep it inside anymore.
But I want you to see me.
I want you to tell me the truth.
I want to be creative
partners with you.
You think that I don't see you?
Is that what you think?
God, you are amazing!
I'm your biggest fan!
- See you guys.
- Good night!
My god, Zoe!
