00:00The End
00:30K. Francis in the role of Stella Parrish is one of England's greatest stage stars.
00:40Tremendously popular as a public idol, her private life is something she has guarded from her closest associates.
00:47The reason? Just watch what happens when she returns to her dressing room after a triumphant first night performance of a new play.
00:56Well, hello.
00:57How did you get in here?
01:01You've climbed high since I saw you last.
01:04Yes, I have.
01:06Yeah, you climbed too high.
01:08You sure had those monkeys goggle-eyed out there tonight.
01:11I'd like to see their faces if I told them what you and I know.
01:15I bet they'd swallow their monocles.
01:18How'd you keep this undercover so long? Did you knock off the ground?
01:21Do I look like a girl who needs someone to do it for her?
01:25Hey, you are the brownie.
01:27Watch that door, Nana.
01:28Take all the pictures of me you want to, but my baby stays out of this.
01:31Is that clear to all of you?
01:32If you want another word out of me, you've got to promise that.
01:34My paper will pay you $5,000 for an exclusive story.
01:38Well, now, that's very interesting.
01:41I want to talk to you.
01:42Pull up a chair and join the Inquisition.
01:45Alone?
01:45There's nothing I have to say that one reporter the others can't hear.
02:06My dear, we've all got secrets.
02:07We've a right to keep them.
02:08And still, after all that, I don't know it.
02:10It seems that you have a deep distrust of every living soul.
