Catfight Page #8

Synopsis: In this dark, gritty, mean-spirited, but well-made comedy-drama, Veronica (Sandra Oh) is an superficial, entitled housewife dealing with her home life. Ashley (Anne Heche) is a self-obsessed, misanthropic, artist dealing with her career and her life partner Lisa (Alicia Silverstone) who wants to raise a baby. Veronica and Ashely's paths cross at a party hosted by Veronica's husband, which the two cynical woman's long-buried rivalry comes to the surface which leads to a brutal cat-fight where Veronica ends up in the hospital in a coma. After two years, Veronica emerges from her coma to learn that both her husband and teenage son are dead, and she is broke with no friends or family. On the other hand, Ashley has become a successful and wealthy artist now married to Lisa. Veronica blames Ashley for her downfall, and after another confrontation which leads to another savage cat-fight in a vacant lot, Ashley is the one to end up in a coma and is revived after two years to find her own world

- We have some

unfinished business.

- Well, that's so dramatic.

- I lost everything

because of you.

- That's even more dramatic.

- It's true.

- I lost everything

because of you.

- Well, it looks like

you're doing okay now.

- Do you want a glass of water?

You look dehydrated.

- I didn't come here

to make peace, Veronica.

- How did you find me?

- Instinct.

- I'm not buying it.

- I followed your smell.

- I'm still not buying it.

- I found your bus ticket

from two years ago.

- I'll buy that.

We don't have to

do this, Ashley.

- My spirit's broken.

My heart is filled with hate.

I have nothing left to do

in this life but destroy you.

- Well, why don't you come in

and I'll make you

some breakfast first.

- I haven't eaten.

- Come on.

I'll make you an omelette.

You love omelettes.

- You remembered.

- Come on.

- How old was he?

- He would have been

19 yesterday.

- Mine would have been two.

One and a half, I suppose.

- I would have never

let kip enlist.

I would have stopped him.

But I couldn't.

I was asleep.

- You didn't think

the war was right?

- I never really thought

about it being right or wrong.

It just made us rich.

- It put me on the map.

- God, I miss

buying things though.

- This seems like

a pretty good option,

dropping out of everything.

- Yeah, you know,

i never thought I'd love

living in a place so remote.

I could never live

in the city again.

- You don't get lonely?

- Actually, no.

- Hmm.

- This is my aunt's place.

She's sleeping

in the back room.

- Wait, she's here?

- Oh, she could sleep

through an apocalypse.

No, I'm really

lucky to have her.

She's my last living relative.

Do you want to see my son?

- Sure.

- He made these videos for me

when he was in the war.

- Wow, what a gift.

- Yeah, here.

- Hey, mom .

Um, I hope you're well

and getting a lot of rest.

That was a joke.

Um, I actually met this girl

a couple of weeks ago.

Um, she's beautiful

and amazing

and we've been

hanging out a lot

and going on walks and stuff.

She doesn't really speak

that much English

but I'm teaching her.

- So, she...

- He's so handsome.

- Isn't he?

I was so angry for so long.

But these videos have...

Have saved me.

It's like...

It's like he's still

here with me.

- Oh sh*t. Oh sh*t.

- Hold on. Hold on.

- Oh my god. Oh my god.

- Give me that...

Give me that napkin.

Please, please, please.

- Dry it... dry it off.

- Oh sh*t.

- Oh sh*t.

- Oh my god,

it's going to be fine.

- Oh my god,

it's not working.

- Veronica,

it's going to be fine.

- Oh my god,

it's not f***ing working.

- It's going to be fine!

- You broke it!

- I didn't break--

- Ashley, you f***ing broke it.

- Look, it's playing!

It's playing!

- You broke it.

You f***ing broke it.

- It was an accident,

Veronica.

There's water spilled...

- Why are you

drinking water near it?

- What are you talking about?

You put it on the table!

- This is all I have.

- What?

- Ashley.

- You backed them up?

- Oh, come on.

- No, I didn't back it up!

- Surely, you backed up

your son's videos!

- How?

- How? Where are we?

- What are you talking about?

- Put it on the cloud!

- I'm in the middle

of a f***ing cabin.

- Oh my god,

are you serious?

- You didn't back up

those f***ing videos?

- No, I didn't back it up.

- How many times

do I have to tell you!

- I didn't...

- Do not f***ing blame me

- for your stupid

f***ing mistake!

- Blame you?

You are killing my son

all over again.

- You b*tch!

- Uh.

- F*** you!

Get up.

Get up b*tch!

- Uh.

Ugh.

Ah!

- F*** you!

- Look at me!

Look at me!

- System reboot. System reboot.

System reboot. System reboot.

- I was on this mountain

yesterday

and I took this landscape,

I drew this landscape,

and I thought it was

so peaceful and beautiful

and I just wanted to show it

to you because it was so...

Um, I think I need to go.

Wake up soon.

I love you, mom.
