Maps to the Stars Page #7
You don't think I set those fires do you?
Say, 'I think that you didn't mean to.
You just need help, that's all'.
Think you didn't mean to.
You just need help, that's all.
Don't you want to help me?
Will you leave my stockings?
I have burns.
My legs. My stomach. My back.
Okay.
On my school notebook.
On my desk and on the trees.
In the sand and in the snow,
I write your name.
On all the flesh that says yes.
On the forehead of my friends.
On every hand held out,
I write your name.
Your mother of course
was Clarice Taggart.
The wonderful actress who died
tragically in a fire in the mid 70's.
Christmas '76.
You've spoken of your mother's addictions.
And recently revealed and,
very bravely, I might say,
that you yourself
were physically abused.
And sexually, yes.
Which is far more uncommon, usually it's a male,
the father, stepdad, what have you.
And I wanna talk
about that Havana, but first...
There is a question that
I've been dieing to ask.
What is it like
starring in a remake of a movie,
'Stolen Waters', as you are now
and essentially
playing your mother?
Scary.
I mean, we all hear that
we become our mothers but
this is a bit extreme.
And she was even nominated?
For an academy award, yes,
which I believe she should have won.
But she did get the Golden Globe.
I suppose I feel about as
comfortable as I, as I could.
- We're very lucky to have Damien Javitz directing...
- Agatha!
- There is a man who's made some...
- Agatha, could you come up here?!
strange films. Honored?
Yes, but strange nonetheless.
Don't be shy.
I'm so backed up from the Vicodin.
I need you to go back to
Whole Foods and get me a laxative.
I think it's called 'Quiet Moment'.
I need you to go back to
Whole Foods and get me a laxative.
I think it's called 'Quiet Moment'.
Oh...
I should call it 'Un-Quiet Moment'.
Um, and I'm gonna need you tonight.
Maria can't work. One of her 1000 kids
has got cholera or whatever.
Oh, uh... what do... what do I do?
Um, kitchen stuff. Mostly.
You know, easy.
Refill drinks, maybe little serving.
And have fun. Lots of interesting people.
It'll be good for you.
F***!
I think I'm gonna need an enema.
Oh! Wait , wait.
I wanted to ask you something.
Do you see men?
Sometimes.
Are you seeing someone now?
You are!
Just dating a little.
What does he do?
He's an actor.
Oh God! They're the worst!
You have to fight them for the mirror in the mornings.
Well in my case, that doesn't apply.
He writes too.
No. You know, you're very attractive.
Don't run yourself down.
Do you do it with him?
Havana!
Eh, you can tell me!
How much do you do?
Almost everything.
Do you come?
There you go.
Is he a waiter?
No. He... you...uh, he drives a limousine.
You met him outside of Valentino's.
Oh, yeah!
He's cute.
Man! Limo-drivers are Rolls!
Um, okay.
Um, I need
yogurt and cigarettes and call the
hot tub man because the water's cold.
My God. Oh my God! It stinks in here!
Hey sucker fish!
Hey! You're out late for a school night.
2 days off.
Have a Shirley Temple.
Shirley you jest.
Don't call me Shirley.
Oh, um Benjie Weiss. Gretchen Voss.
Hey, ah...
I feel like getting in some sh*t tonight.
You got any?
Mother still working you?
Busting my expensive little hump,
one day at a time.
Where's... ah... Kayla?
Naw, f*** her.
I did! After the teem-stress
sold her my poop.
She got it for her song.
Well, you mean for a Shlong.
Oh, it's a long story.
Long and coiled.
What up with Sam?
Well, let's find out.
Shall we?
She dug you, man.
She dug you and you dissed her.
I didn't dis her.
Red, I know you're holding in.
I'm not gonna be the one
to f*** up your sobriety, okay Benjie?
Are you doing the
new babysitter sequel?
Yeah.
They made me an offer
my mother couldn't refuse.
You made so much money.
Yeah.
Saw you in 'Thrill Kill'. Cool.
We tried to have fun with horror.
The critics got it anyways.
I uh...
Got a little GHB, if you wanna get high?
I think I love you.
Alright, Sam's on a way, Jose.
Done deal.
The terminator.
Cheers.
Cheers.
So, I got this off of eBay.
And supposedly, they used it at Columbine. Check it out.
Hey! Hey! It's loaded man!
That's loaded.
Then I'll empty it.
Okay, don't f*** around.
Benjie!
That was so sick.
Oh God. America only knew.
Finish the joke, Rhett.
About the hillbilly.
Oh my God!
You've only been telling it for an hour.
Okay, so, okay,
the hillbilly says to the yuppie...
And what exactly is a yuppie?
Are you serious?
Oh, like, I know what it is.
- I just don't know what it stands for.
- Okay.
The hillbilly says to the yuppie, right?
He says, 'I know a place where we can go'.
Right?
Well, they got dancing, they got farting
they got drinking and
they got F***ING, WOO!
This is joking and safe sex?
F*** safe sex! Let's bareback!
Alright, come on, give me that.
Eh, I said... this is a joke.
And it's safe sex.
Oh, well... I hope not.
I'm gonna have to kill you.
Come on. Benjie!
- This is getting old, alright?
- Yuppie says...
... great!
Who else is gonna be there?
And the hillbilly says...
Who else?
Just me...
... and you.
You mother f***er!
You idiot!
Oh God!
Holy sh*t!
Oh f***! F***!
- Get out of here Benjie!
- Rhett, man, I'm sorry! You saw... I...
I had all the bullets out.
You're f***ing crazy.
You killed my dog, a**hole!
You sick mother f***er! You killed my dog!
GET OUT OF HERE!
May I come in?
- I'm not sure that's a good idea.
- I won't stay long, mom.
I just wanted to make amends.
I've seen this house in the magazines.
In ah...
Architectural Digest and The Profiles of Father.
Makes me feel exposed but...
Stafford likes things personalized.
Show the world how and where we live.
Can I...
... get you anything?
Um, no thank you.
I suppose it'll quit.
Actually I thought
you'd come here sooner, it...
It's been 7 years.
Takes me that long to
put on my make-up.
Agatha, I... I didn't go to see you.
I wouldn't have come to
see me if I were you either.
I was afraid.
Cause of what you did.
You don't have to explain.
I've dreamt so much of that old house.
It was the first place I visited
when I got back here.
It's so strange that nobody has built on it.
Well we still own the property.
Since before I can remember,
I've had the same dream.
Benjie and me, getting married there.
In a big white tent.
I didn't make any sense.
And then I found out
about you and dad.
You were in Europe, I...
... found a key to the lock box,
all the pictures.
We didn't know we were
brother and sister.
We've been separated
since we were kids.
It was a freak thing, we...
... met on campus, in the desert...
Agatha, we didn't know.
We didn't know.
What are you doing here?
Stafford, it's alright.
I told you to stay away from us.
You didn't know.
It was a freak thing.
I found the diaries.
Love is stronger than death.
- You crazy c*nt!
- Stafford!
