Cut! No, no.

That's... No.

You're already dead.

- Yeah, but I thought...

- Dead people don't do that.

...it would be better to show

the last struggle for life.

We're running out of time here.

We really gotta get this.

I'm ready. I'm ready.

Action.

Oh, f***!

- Something bit me!

- The CGI disk...

- Hi.

This is Rick Saul, the producer.

Eslie Town, the writer.

And Smash, our director.

- I loved the script.

- Thank you. Very nice to meet you.

Very nice to meet you.

- So, get it started. Should we try?

- Sure.

We are only now doing the monologue,

not the first and second scenes.

Oh, okay.

So, you just lost your mom

and you're cursing God.

Do you have any questions?

No, I'm okay.

Do you have any answers?

Just really take this time

to put yourself in this place.

The air is humid.

There's black bugs in the tree.

The... What?

- Ocusts?

- Ocusts, chopping the...

You may be in front of the

old plantation house. It's...

I used to think about you

when he hurt me.

You weren't there.

You never were.

Things were so different then.

The bayou was open...

so free.

Sitting on that front porch I looked

into your eyes and stared for hours.

Et me just stop you for a sec.

You must remember I'm

taping this on digital video.

So it's very important

that you think very raw.

It's...

Just start again and think that

your acting must be very raw...

very...

Got it.

You weren't there.

You never were.

Things were so different then.

The bayou was open...

so free.

Sitting on that front porch,

I stared into your eyes for hours.

That terrible night...

when the storm ripped and

screamed through everything.

The abuse, the denial,

the redemption!

We shared it all.

You were my rock...

my salvation.

You... were me.

And now you're dead, you b*tch!

I don't know

if it's possible to go on.

I do not will to stand!

Oh, God, damn you to hell!

Why? Why? Why?

Wow! That was wonderful.

Very good, excellent.

Very good.

Are you sure? I can try another way.

I mean, this is such a...

How tall are you?

I'm 5'7. This tall.

How tall is Mel?

About this height.

He wears his lifts in his shoes,

so no one will know.

All right, Ellie. That was great.

Thanks for coming.

Okay, thank you. It was nice

to meet you all.

- Thank you.

- I loved the script. It's great.

My keys.

- Bye.

- Bye.

- Was that okay?

- It was great. It was really great.

I kind of wanted to do

those other scenes.

No, that was everything.

It was totally fine.

- They're really nice.

- Oh, yeah, they're great.

- The director. What was his name?

- Smash.

Cool. He seems interesting.

Well, you'll be hearing from us.

You know, we'll be in touch.

- Thanks for coming.

- Thanks. Great to see you again.

- All right.

- All right, see you later.

"Sitting on that front porch,

I stared in your eyes... "

et me in, f***ers!

Won't you mistrust

Love's gone behind

In between

Oh, f***!

I sucked your cock! I sucked

Vinnie's cock! I sucked them all!

I f***ed your cock, I sucked it.

I was there.

I was there.

It went okay? So what about

yesterday, did you get feedback?

F***ing tell them that I didn't

f***ing respond to them either!

That f***ing dick wad!

Hold on, can you?

Dennis, hold on.

Hello. Hi, honey. Where are you?

Baby, I'm just in the car,

driving, on the freeway.

I'm late to my second appointment.

"The Cruel City". F*** it,

I don't know what it's called.

It's a piece of sh*t anyway.

But it's a good part.

Dennis, hi.

Dennis, sorry, I completely forgot.

Maybe you could call and say

I'm gonna be 5 minutes late.

Isten, you know when they said

they didn't respond to me...

was that my look, was that...

what, performance?

All right, I'll call you after,

okay? All right, bye.

I just gotta be some junkie

f***ing whore, like New York.

I sucked his cock, Vinnie's cock!

I sucked them all!

Does that accent sound all right?

I'm not good at the Brooklyn thing...

but I did this Southern belle thing

and I f***ing nailed it. I was...

Don't make me tell you what I've

just been through, okay? 'Cause I...

Vinnie had blood

all over his f***ing shirt!

Don't make me tell you... Don't make

me tell you what I've been through.

F***!

Don't make me tell you

what I've just been through.

Vinnie had blood

all over his f***ing shirt!

No... Don't make me tell you

what I've just been through, okay?

'Cause Vinnie had blood

all over his f***ing shirt!

Baby, I...

You said this before. We've gone

through this. We've gone through it.

What am I supposed to do?

Do you want me to pull over...

and just park and listen to you,

what you have to say...

while I'm on my way to a f***ing

audition trying to earn some money?

I know. What do you expect me to do?

How can I not get emotional when...

Don't hang up on me! Don't!

Motherf***er!

Vinnie, I sucked your cock.

He had blood all over

his f***ing shirt!

You try going from Avenue A to

Belford Stiverson in 10 minutes.

You try. You try it.

I sucked his cock.

I sucked his cock.

He had blood

all over his f***ing shirt!

I sucked his cock. I sucked it good.

F***!

- Hi.

- Hi, how are you doing? Sign in.

- Great.

- Can I get you some water or coffee?

If I have any coffee,

my head will explode.

Water's fine. Thanks.

Have a seat over here.

I'll get this mess.

- Joann will be right with you.

- Thanks a lot.

- Hi.

- Hi!

You look lovely.

- Thanks.

- Good to see you.

I won't kiss you cause I've got a

cold, I don't want you to catch it.

The director is in Vancouver, we're

going to put you on tape. That okay?

All right. Okay.

So you can just take a sit here.

And we'll tape you.

- Okay. So I'm reading with you?

- Yes.

- You get a chance to read the script?

- Yes, I did.

Can we...? Sorry, that light is

really bright. Can we...? Thanks.

- How's that?

- That's great.

Et's see what happens here.

I'm just getting my hair a little...

Do you have any questions?

No, I just... Does she love him

or she sort of...

I would say it's very much

a love-hate relationship.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
