St. Vincent Page #18

Synopsis: Maggie (Melissa McCarthy), a struggling single woman, moves to Brooklyn with her 12-year-old son, Oliver (Jaeden Lieberher). Having to work very long hours, she has no choice but to leave Oliver in the care of Vincent (Bill Murray), a bawdy misanthrope next door. Vincent takes Oliver along on his trips to the race track, strip club and dive bar, and an unlikely friendship is born. The man is a mentor to the boy in his hedonistic way, and Oliver sees the good in Vincent that no one else can.

OLIVER:

A blessing or something.

Vin thinks. Lowers his head, closes his eyes. Thinks

better.

VINCENT:

I better not.

Figures.

EXT. VIN’S HOUSE - CONTINUOUS

The camera pulls back from the house, as the MAILMAN, on

all fours on the front lawn, shoves mail in the felled

box.

VINCENT (O.S.)

You waiting for a paper invitation?

This crap ain’t good enough to eat

cold.

We float past the “fixed” fence and up into the

atmosphere above Van Nuys.

FADE TO BLACK.

The end.
