Short filmTranscript
00:00:00He used to worship.
00:00:02And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
00:00:10That loser actually won an Oscar?
00:00:13Who knew the house hubby had it in him? I'm an industry joke now.
00:00:17Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on a shelf for 10 years?
00:00:24Wow, you did your homework. Yes, I got sidelined for a little bit, but I think I found my way back.
00:00:30Um, I will tell you this. I don't think you can truly love others until you truly love yourself.
00:00:37Daniel really did it. The one standing by his side isn't me anymore.
00:00:42You think you can divorce America's sweetheart? You're nothing but a fucking house husband, Daniel.
00:00:48Our contract expired. I'm only telling you because you're her manager.
00:00:52If you try and divorce my daughter, you will end up with nothing. The mansion, the money, even your own son will belong to her.
00:01:00I'll always love my son.
00:01:04But he's a bully, and he learned it from the best in the business, his grandmother.
00:01:08You still worship, Sabrina. What happened?
00:01:11That was a long time ago.
00:01:13America's sweetheart, Sabrina Donovan, attempts suicide.
00:01:16All for her co-star and Hollywood's golden boy, Preston Eastwood.
00:01:19When her career's hanging by a thread, I need to get those paparazzi off her back.
00:01:26You've always loved her, Daniel. I've seen it.
00:01:29She needs that now.
00:01:32Stay. Marry her.
00:01:34Love her.
00:01:35So that she doesn't face the world alone.
00:01:38I might not have been Sabrina's first love, but I would be her last.
00:01:42And I'd cherish her like no other man would.
00:01:45If Preston Eastwood's really back, then maybe the last ten years meant more to me than they ever did to her.
00:01:52This was the last one.
00:01:56Mom, Daniel.
00:01:57What's going on?
00:02:03What's going on?
00:02:05Honey!
00:02:06I was just telling Daniel he needs to stop dressing like a bum.
00:02:11If the paparazzi catch him next to you, lol.
00:02:14But I need to go. I have an appointment with your child.
00:02:19Think about it, Daniel.
00:02:20Once Sabrina signs the divorce petition, the 30-day waiting period starts, and then I will be free.
00:02:31Sabrina, we need to talk.
00:02:33Ugh, can it wait? I'm seriously so spent.
00:02:37I had the photo shoot, and fitting, and cocktails with girls.
00:02:41I saw it. Preston was there.
00:02:44I mean, he got us our first movie deal right out of college. I mean, we owe him.
00:02:48Yeah, and then he cheated on you, and I'm the one who picked up the pieces.
00:02:53I'm starving. When are we eating?
00:02:55Lunch is on the stove.
00:02:57But first, your mother and I need to talk.
00:03:00No! I want to eat now!
00:03:13Hmm, you always know the spot.
00:03:15He doesn't listen.
00:03:16Daniel, please.
00:03:18I had a migraine all day from the flashing bulbs at that god-awful Vanity Fair shoot.
00:03:25I've got something I need to tell you. I'll make it quick.
00:03:28This isn't easy, but I'm...
00:03:30Ew! What is this?
00:03:32It's mom's vegetable and quinoa stew.
00:03:34I don't want healthy food! I want chicken nuggets!
00:03:36Chicken nuggets! Chicken nuggets!
00:03:38You can't have that every day. It's not healthy for you.
00:03:42But I want that!
00:03:43Jackson, when I say no, I mean no.
00:03:47You suck! I want chicken nuggets! Give me chicken nuggets!
00:03:52I waited. I gave it everything I had.
00:04:03But it takes two to make a marriage work.
00:04:05And myself as a wife would rather be with the man that almost ruined her life than me.
00:04:11Enough. Just enough.
00:04:14I want a divorce.
00:04:20I want a divorce.
00:04:28Sabrina, did you hear me?
00:04:31Huh?
00:04:31I want a divorce.
00:04:36I want chicken nuggets! Give me chicken nuggets!
00:04:39Jackson, honey, you need to listen to your father, okay?
00:04:44Now go upstairs, get cleaned up. We'll get you some real food.
00:04:52Seriously, their only job is to take care of the house and the family.
00:04:56I mean, it's not that hard.
00:04:57What is this? Another contract?
00:05:02How big is the role?
00:05:04Who's directing?
00:05:06It's not a...
00:05:06Whatever. My mom will look over it anyways.
00:05:09Hard to believe I can't even get her to care about this.
00:05:12Honestly, I am really at my capacity.
00:05:15I have that red carpet event coming up.
00:05:18And I really need you to pull your weight.
00:05:20Pull my weight?
00:05:22Yeah, you get it.
00:05:25Mwah! Love you.
00:05:26I've devoted myself to this family for 10 long years.
00:05:30If that wasn't enough, then this is the only option.
00:05:34Just wait until she realizes what life's like without me.
00:05:37The movie's Greenland, and the studio wants you to direct.
00:05:47We need you on a plane to Australia tomorrow.
00:05:49I can't.
00:05:50My wife needs me here in L.A.
00:05:52After all I've sacrificed,
00:05:54my scripts,
00:05:55my career,
00:05:57my future,
00:05:58all pushed aside.
00:05:59At least there is one good thing to come from this.
00:06:03I was able to use the money Celeste gave me
00:06:06to save my mother's life.
00:06:07Hey, Mom. How you doing?
00:06:08Oh, good, dear.
00:06:09I just noticed that you transfer more money to my account.
00:06:15Do you need more?
00:06:15No, no, no, no.
00:06:16You've already done so much.
00:06:19I'm just trying to help.
00:06:20I know.
00:06:21But I never wanted my cancer to be your battle.
00:06:25I can't thank you enough for everything that you've done,
00:06:29but it's time you lived your life.
00:06:33I am, Mom.
00:06:35And I promise,
00:06:37very soon,
00:06:39everything's gonna change.
00:06:42You look wonderful, dear.
00:06:44You deserve more than what they put you through.
00:06:46Everyone, come quick, come quick!
00:06:48I gotta go.
00:06:49Love you.
00:06:53What is it, Mom?
00:06:54Someone very special decided to pay us a visit.
00:06:57Our favorite leading man.
00:06:59Come on.
00:06:59Come on.
00:07:06Preston Eastwood,
00:07:07the man that broke my wife's heart
00:07:09and is stealing it back again.
00:07:14Preston Eastwood,
00:07:15the man that broke my wife's heart.
00:07:23All right, cut.
00:07:25That's a wrap, everyone.
00:07:27We got our start on the set of Breaking the Ice.
00:07:31Sabrina was a rising star.
00:07:34I was just the director's assistant.
00:07:38Our future's ahead of us.
00:07:41If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.
00:07:45But at least she got her six.
00:07:55Petersen is that alguém laying in my head in the hotARD.
00:07:57We got he's going out,
00:07:59let's go.
00:07:59Well, it's our second treasure.
00:08:00I want to be insistent.
00:08:01We'll tell ya.
00:08:02They were the next Number Barbara's show.
00:08:03We got updated and now,
00:08:04but we'll look incredibly fast.
00:08:05We'll Alaver.
00:08:06I'm really sad.
00:08:07We'll take offense.
00:08:08We'll catch you again.
00:08:08We won the next season.
00:08:09Someone else's Local Benji
00:08:09You've destroyed me.
00:08:18Rest in.
00:08:20Rest in love.
00:08:34Rhea, vote!
00:08:36Stay back.
00:08:38I mean it.
00:08:40Sabrina, don't do this.
00:08:44Just...
00:08:45Just give me your hand.
00:08:59No!
00:09:02Daniel!
00:09:03I got you.
00:09:05No!
00:09:06Don't let me go!
00:09:08I won't ever let you go.
00:09:09I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:09:18Nobody sees the real people.
00:09:20I see you, Sabrina.
00:09:21I see all of you.
00:09:24And you're never going to be alone again.
00:09:26Good to see you.
00:09:27Good to see you.
00:09:35Oh, my gosh.
00:09:36How long has it been?
00:09:37Oh, too long.
00:09:38Look at you!
00:09:39Oh, I'm so glad you could make it to my little slice in the Hollywood Hills.
00:09:43Yeah, of course, babe.
00:09:44Thank you for letting me stay here for a little bit.
00:09:46Are you kidding?
00:09:46Oh, Daniel.
00:09:47Uh, Preston's gonna stay with us for a bit, but you don't mind, right?
00:09:51Oh, there he is.
00:09:52Oh, there he is, the assistant.
00:09:54I'll tell you what, there's no one who grabs coffee quite like this guy.
00:09:57God, how did someone like you end up with a blonde bombshell like my Sabrina?
00:10:02I can't believe my wife would invite the ex that she tried to kill herself over into
00:10:09our home.
00:10:10Sabrina, I don't remember agreeing to having him stay over.
00:10:13Daniel.
00:10:14Oh.
00:10:15Don't embarrass me.
00:10:16No, it's fine.
00:10:17I'm sorry.
00:10:18Whoa, you played Brett Steele in your action spy movie?
00:10:22He's not just tough, he's Brett Steele tough, you think, you know?
00:10:26My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch it.
00:10:28He doesn't let me do anything.
00:10:29Now that I'm here, we'll be able to bend some of dad's rules, what are you saying,
00:10:34huh?
00:10:35Yeah.
00:10:36Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves, so.
00:10:39It's fine.
00:10:40It's fine.
00:10:41It's fine.
00:10:43Just relax, okay?
00:10:44Be nice.
00:10:54Some people never change, but once our divorce is finalized, I won't be there to save
00:10:59her when he breaks her heart again.
00:11:02Yeah.
00:11:03It's nice.
00:11:04But this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on the cell.
00:11:14Oh, I'm gonna be careful.
00:11:16You all right?
00:11:19I'm still starving.
00:11:21Make me some food.
00:11:23Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.
00:11:25Stew?
00:11:26Ew.
00:11:27Ew.
00:11:28What is this, a soup kitchen?
00:11:29I told you a hundred times, I want a chicken nugget!
00:11:32Daniel, if the kid wants nuggets, just give him nuggets.
00:11:35I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:11:39Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:11:41Oh, babe.
00:11:42For real?
00:11:43Yeah.
00:11:44My makeup line took me all the way to the top.
00:11:49Donovan Cosmetics.
00:11:50Rich.
00:11:51Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:11:56I mean, that's just something poor people tell themselves so that they're happy with nothing.
00:12:01Daniel, that was always your problem.
00:12:02You're so caught up on the morals.
00:12:04You realize that's why no one bought your scripts.
00:12:06They were so dull.
00:12:07Please, Mr. Eastwood, my dad won't let me have anything!
00:12:10Lucky for you, Uncle Preston is a little bit of a rebel, so how about we go to an exclusive
00:12:17restaurant?
00:12:18My treat.
00:12:19Here we go.
00:12:20What to do?
00:12:21Oh, you don't have to do that.
00:12:22I don't mind.
00:12:23All of you insist.
00:12:24I mean, I'm already dressed.
00:12:25So...
00:12:26Okay.
00:12:27Oh, and I would invite you, Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress cut, so...
00:12:32Anyways!
00:12:33Oh, babe, let's go!
00:12:34That's great.
00:12:35Gotcha.
00:12:36There we go.
00:12:37Oh, thanks.
00:12:38Paps, you don't have to come, Daniel.
00:12:40Last time.
00:12:41I promise.
00:12:42You're right.
00:12:43It is the last time.
00:12:44Guys?
00:12:45Hi!
00:12:46Jackson.
00:12:47Jackson.
00:12:48Jackson.
00:12:49Jackson.
00:12:50Jackson.
00:12:51Well, did you use your brain, or are you following through on the divorce?
00:13:12Why don't you meet me at the Oaks to finalize the paperwork?
00:13:18I hope you're ready to go on without a penny to your name.
00:13:22Is it ten years of heartbreak? I don't care if I walk away with nothing.
00:13:42Why would Celeste invite me here? She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.
00:13:50Sabrina Donovan, I could scream. I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:13:56Preston Eastwood, I haven't seen the two of you together since Breaking the Ice.
00:14:00OMG, I used to always replay that scene where you guys kissed at the hockey rink.
00:14:04A scene that I wrote, uncredited of course. Even my success is shadowed by her fame.
00:14:09Wait, are you two dating?
00:14:11Oh, well actually, this is totally a date.
00:14:14All these years, I couldn't even be seen with her in public.
00:14:22Do you mind just giving me a little space? You're not really a part of my brand.
00:14:27Your brand?
00:14:28It's just, it's not a good look for me. You get it, right?
00:14:32So, you two are a thing? Well, I...
00:14:43It's okay babe, we don't have to lie to our biggest fans.
00:14:47This is so going viral. I can't believe you guys are dating.
00:14:58It looks like more than dating. Are... is this your son?
00:15:02I wish I was his son, Jackson.
00:15:05Don't be silly. You have a dad and he's a sissy.
00:15:09That's what all the boys at school say.
00:15:11He does girly stuff like cook and clean.
00:15:14But Preston is awesome.
00:15:17He's an action spy. I wish he was my dad.
00:15:22My own son doesn't respect me.
00:15:24But we'll see if Preston's the type of daddy wants when he comes home coked out from a Hollywood after party with a call girl.
00:15:30It's okay, buddy. Every spy needs a partner in crime. If you want me around, I'm in.
00:15:36That is if mom schools it.
00:15:39Oh, Preston, I don't know. Daniel, he, you know, he's... Preston, what are you doing?
00:15:47Come on, let's get Michelle.
00:16:00Now that's a Hollywood couple.
00:16:10I told you this divorce was a mistake. Sabrina will end up on top and you will end up with nothing.
00:16:19Daniel!
00:16:21You know, it's probably for the best.
00:16:23On the sound of it, your own son doesn't even want to be around you.
00:16:27Daniel, he's here? He... Did he see us? Is he looking over here?
00:16:31Oh, fuck, that's not good. I was just doing that for Felicia. It didn't mean for him to see us.
00:16:36Actually, it was perfect timing. Once that loser's out of the picture, Sabrina and her money are all mine.
00:16:42Who cares about him, mommy? Now you can be with Mr. Preston.
00:16:45Jackson, enough.
00:16:48What do I do?
00:16:50Well, that's it then.
00:16:51Now I need to handle Sabrina. You need to leverage your relationship with Preston, with the tabloids.
00:16:57I'm sure you'll spend the story to whatever suits you.
00:17:00You're really good at that.
00:17:02Ooh! I have a parting gift for you.
00:17:06A one-way ticket, so you can get as far away from this family as possible.
00:17:11I know the contract is over, but if I see one stitch of bad press about the Donovans, I will come after you with everything I got.
00:17:20Daniel loves me. He has to understand. This is Hollywood. It's just part of the job.
00:17:26Daniel, I can explain.
00:17:28Daniel, what is this?
00:17:35I can't let her create a public scene. All it takes is one article to get her cancelled.
00:17:42Are you going somewhere?
00:17:44Honey! Oh, what a coincidence! We were just meeting here to discuss a vacation. Isn't that right, Daniel?
00:17:52A vacation?
00:17:53Final. You're paying attention.
00:17:56Yeah. I'm gonna leave in a few days.
00:17:59Well, thanks for telling your wife. What are we supposed to do without you?
00:18:03Without me cooking and cleaning?
00:18:05That's not what I meant.
00:18:06Whoa! Looks like there's a little bit of drama going on over here.
00:18:09That's fine. Daniel's just decided to abandon us for a bit. Just like any good husband would.
00:18:15Oh, look how you see. Is it me? Is my presence hurting your ego?
00:18:20I wouldn't put jealousy past him.
00:18:22I always knew you were the self-loathing type. You know what? Maybe I should go. I don't want to get between the two of you.
00:18:28No, please stay. I want you to live with us forever and ever.
00:18:31No, you know what? I'll go. And clearly she wants you. Going to dance this soon.
00:18:39Daniel, wait.
00:18:41I won't ever let you go.
00:18:42He won't leave. He promised. It doesn't have to be like this. We could pull up a chair and we can...
00:18:51I'm gonna go back.
00:18:52Daniel!
00:18:53Daniel!
00:18:54Thanks.
00:18:55I've got some ears. Yeah.
00:18:56Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:18:58Oh, good. You're up. Um, after dinner we went to an A-lister party in Bel-Air.
00:19:13It's fun.
00:19:14Don't look at me like that. I'm allowed to have a little bit of fun. Anyways, Preston had a few too many drinks to be alone.
00:19:25How lucky for him. He's got his girl to take care of him when he's drunk.
00:19:29Daniel, whatever you saw at the restaurant, it's not like that.
00:19:34Yeah. Listen, man. I've had every opportunity to sleep with her and nothing happened. You can trust me.
00:19:43Preston, I think you're at the same time. You need to get out.
00:19:47Alright.
00:19:48Oh, hey. Daniel, seriously, listen, man. When you're gone, I promise I will take the best care of your son and your wife.
00:19:58I'm going to be the best man of the house.
00:20:01Just ignore him. He doesn't know what he's saying.
00:20:04No, I actually think he's the only one speaking exactly what's on his mind.
00:20:08Daniel, you don't have to be so jealous.
00:20:10Jealous?
00:20:13My God, you still don't get it, do you?
00:20:16Whatever, I'm going to bed.
00:20:21You know, I don't think I should be alone.
00:20:28That's all I need to slip into her bed and drive the final wedge between her and the house husband.
00:20:34Daniel, can Preston sleep in here tonight so I could look after him?
00:20:40God. God, you're unbelievable.
00:20:43Are you really going to ask your husband if you can sleep with your ex?
00:20:50No, it's not like that. I...
00:20:54What?
00:20:56You know what? Fine.
00:20:57You two look great together.
00:21:01Daniel, I...
00:21:02And to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.
00:21:17Um...
00:21:21I don't know where our kettle or extra towels are.
00:21:26Without me, you can't even find a kettle or a towel.
00:21:32I was never the homemaker.
00:21:35Please, Daniel.
00:21:38I can't think of any time she was there to comfort me.
00:21:56If you're sick, can you go in the other room?
00:22:00I have a press junkie tomorrow that I seriously can't miss.
00:22:05Look at her now. Playing house for another man.
00:22:09If only she worked this hard at being a wife when it actually mattered.
00:22:26There he is.
00:22:29God, I wish I could sleep until 8 a.m.
00:22:32Man.
00:22:33No, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. workout.
00:22:35Life of an A Lister, I guess.
00:22:37Hmm.
00:22:39Hmm.
00:22:40Hmm.
00:22:41Hmm.
00:22:42Hmm.
00:22:43Hmm.
00:22:44Hmm.
00:22:45Hmm.
00:22:46Hmm.
00:22:47Hmm.
00:22:48Hmm.
00:22:49Hmm.
00:22:50Hmm.
00:22:51Hmm.
00:22:52Hmm.
00:22:53Hmm.
00:22:54Hmm.
00:22:55Hmm.
00:22:56We got some.
00:22:57Yeah.
00:22:58What do you need?
00:22:59Oh.
00:23:00Oh.
00:23:01Yeah.
00:23:02There you go.
00:23:03I don't need some of this shit, but I doubt you'll like it.
00:23:05Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.
00:23:06I'm bulking up for a new Marvel movie.
00:23:12Hey, uh, you're not pissed off that your wife had to take care of you last night, right?
00:23:18No.
00:23:19A grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:23:22Why would I be threatened by that?
00:23:25It's finally time to make this hack disappear.
00:23:40What's wrong, Jackson?
00:23:42Mr. Eastwood! I want to play with the fish, but my stupid dad won't let me!
00:23:47And it's unfair!
00:23:49That's a shame, huh? You know what? Let me grab it for you, little man.
00:23:52Here we go.
00:23:53Ooh!
00:23:55No! Not to play with that.
00:23:59You never let me do anything!
00:24:02Come on, it's just a fish tank, Daniel. You guys can afford an aquarium.
00:24:07It's not about the money. It's about him learning how to respect living things.
00:24:11Unfortunately, he's surrounded by bad examples.
00:24:15Yeah? What's that supposed to mean?
00:24:18You're so annoying!
00:24:20Don't push.
00:24:26I said don't push. Go get a book or something.
00:24:29Why don't you get your hands off him?
00:24:31He's a Donovan, not some pathetic man-surgent like you.
00:24:35God, what the hell? You just shot me.
00:24:37I call it a lesson. I'm teaching a kid to go after what he wants.
00:24:43He's not your kid.
00:24:44I wish I was!
00:24:46I hope Mom buries him so you can be gone forever!
00:24:49I hate seeing your stupid face!
00:24:51Ouch!
00:24:52I mean, you just hurt your son. So why don't you make this little vacay of yours?
00:24:56Maybe it will be. But until then, I'm still the man of the house.
00:25:01You? Man of the house? Please. You're a pussy in an apron. I'd be embarrassed to call you a maid, much less a dad or a husband.
00:25:10And you're washed a pack! Still riding on all your old headlines!
00:25:14How were your latest box office numbers, huh? I heard your agents begging for scraps.
00:25:18I'm a fucking star!
00:25:20A star? A star that needs his ex to bring it back into the spotlight.
00:25:24Jackson, come on. I don't want you hanging around this clown anymore.
00:25:28No, I'm not going! Preston's way cooler than you! Preston! Preston! Preston!
00:25:58You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable in Hollywood.
00:26:01What was that?
00:26:09Daniel! What is happening?
00:26:11It was Dad, Mom! Dad was attacking Mr. Eastwood!
00:26:15What?
00:26:16You're so scared!
00:26:17That'd be pretty good, babe.
00:26:18What the hell, Daniel?
00:26:20I just wanted to hang out with Jackson. I came in looking for a fight.
00:26:23I didn't.
00:26:24Ew! What the hell is wrong with you? You're acting like a jealous child!
00:26:28I thought you were bigger than this petty shit!
00:26:30He threw a fish tank at me!
00:26:32It's just a fucking fish tank! Grow up!
00:26:34Remember where in the public eye?
00:26:36What if your little outburst was caught by the press?
00:26:39What? Everyone knows your precious press that attacked me?
00:26:43Maybe I should go on. I'm sorry.
00:26:45No! Oh my God!
00:26:48He's lying!
00:26:50You're a monster!
00:26:52And in front of your son?
00:26:54You have to be kidding!
00:26:55We have to get you to the hospital.
00:26:57Sure.
00:26:59We'll talk about this when I get home.
00:27:01Come on.
00:27:02Clean this up!
00:27:05Soon, you won't be coming home to me ever again.
00:27:09Huh.
00:27:10She's mine now, loser.
00:27:12Hello, segment one. What's your emergency?
00:27:23I'm waiting now.
00:27:24I think I hit an RV.
00:27:26I need an ambulance now.
00:27:27Now!
00:27:28You did lose a lot of blood, so we're gonna have to keep you here overnight to pump you with liquid.
00:27:44To be honest, that's... I could use a break from home.
00:27:47Trouble with the missus?
00:27:49Uh...
00:27:52Yeah.
00:27:53Pretty obvious.
00:27:54Most married folks that come in here are miserable.
00:27:58I shouldn't be saying this, but Sabrina Donovan was here.
00:28:03Miss Preston Eastwood.
00:28:05True love story holding hands, wiping tears.
00:28:09I've been obsessed with them since breaking the ice.
00:28:12You said, um, couple?
00:28:15I wasn't sure, but I checked the visitation logs and it's official!
00:28:20She even helped me reposition Preston when his IV was twisted.
00:28:24She was so sweet.
00:28:30Need us to check on that shoulder for you?
00:28:33No, it's...
00:28:35It's my wound.
00:28:37I tore it, actually, um, ten years ago.
00:28:39Daniel!
00:28:42Sweet and caring.
00:28:45So Preston's found the wife I always wanted.
00:28:48He only had to break her heart to get it.
00:28:50And left me to pick up the pieces.
00:28:56Fuck you!
00:28:58Fuck you!
00:29:00I'm gonna get my shit and go on.
00:29:04Mr. Lee, I don't know if you remember me.
00:29:06You once liked my short film.
00:29:07I have a strip I've been sitting on.
00:29:17It needs the right producer.
00:29:19I know it's a long shot, but I'd be honored if you read it.
00:29:24Where have you been?
00:29:26I kept calling.
00:29:27I started to feel like one of my stalkers.
00:29:30Huh?
00:29:31What?
00:29:35What?
00:29:36I've been busy.
00:29:37Anyways, I thought you were busy entertaining Preston.
00:29:39What?
00:29:40Seriously?
00:29:41Why does it always have to come back to him?
00:29:43I told you, he's just a friend.
00:29:46Yeah.
00:29:48That's what you want to call it?
00:29:50I...
00:29:51I just...
00:29:53I'm sorry.
00:29:54I...
00:29:55Bringing Preston into our home was probably crossing the line.
00:30:02It is what it is.
00:30:04But I mean...
00:30:06You know how the industry works.
00:30:08You even just hint at a relationship and it stirs up all this publicity.
00:30:13And I think you should go for it.
00:30:15I mean, you always do what's best for your career.
00:30:17But...
00:30:19I just...
00:30:20I don't want you to be upset with me.
00:30:24Seriously.
00:30:26I...
00:30:27I care about you.
00:30:31I don't know that.
00:30:34I've known you for 14 years.
00:30:35I know when you're angry.
00:30:37Really?
00:30:38I didn't think you paid attention.
00:30:40I pay attention?
00:30:42Since when do I not pay attention?
00:30:45She signed the papers without reading them.
00:30:48That's all this marriage ever was to her.
00:30:50A headline.
00:30:51A performance.
00:30:54Sabrina.
00:30:55I'm good.
00:30:58Sabrina, I'm good.
00:30:59You know what?
00:31:01I hate fighting.
00:31:02So...
00:31:03Let's just forget about this, okay?
00:31:05I was thinking...
00:31:07We could...
00:31:08Revisit your script.
00:31:12I gave that to you three years ago.
00:31:14You telling me you finally read it?
00:31:17Well, yeah.
00:31:18The first ten pages.
00:31:19But...
00:31:20They're good.
00:31:21The lead role is something I can really sink my teeth into.
00:31:24I mean, we have to do this.
00:31:25Me and you.
00:31:26The lead actress and the writer-director.
00:31:31I gave up on that dream of us working together.
00:31:35A long time ago.
00:31:36Well, how about you make us some lattes and for the next hour we can just pour ourselves into the script.
00:31:43Just like we used to in film school.
00:31:46There was a time when this would have worked on me.
00:31:50I would have melted in her hands.
00:31:52Now I just want to pack and get out of here.
00:31:55Like...
00:31:56I don't know what you do, but I asked the chef to make a latte while you were gone and it was awful.
00:32:17Well, I've had a lot of experience making it for you and I'll be sure to tell them how you like it.
00:32:22That's not what I meant.
00:32:24I like it when you make it.
00:32:26I'm not going to always be here to make it.
00:32:31I knew it.
00:32:34You are mad that I brought Preston back here.
00:32:36I told you it was just a publicity stunt.
00:32:39God, it's not like our marriage is going to get me on the cover of Vanity Fair.
00:32:46Married people are fucking boring.
00:32:49It's good to know where you stand.
00:32:51No, Daniel.
00:32:53No, that's not what I meant.
00:33:00Look what you made me do.
00:33:02Just leave it.
00:33:05I thought you would appreciate that I read your script.
00:33:09And what?
00:33:10It would make up for all the years of indifference?
00:33:12I'm just trying to do something nice.
00:33:15And look what I get for it.
00:33:17You know what?
00:33:18Forget it.
00:33:19I read from here.
00:33:20We'll just talk about this tomorrow.
00:33:36What?
00:33:37Is that how you talk to your mother-in-law?
00:33:39Yeah.
00:33:40Ex-mother-in-law.
00:33:41Not quite.
00:33:42That was the divorce contract.
00:33:44But if you want a clean break, we need to finalize your entertainment contract and our family's MTA.
00:33:49This is showbiz, baby.
00:33:50Remember that.
00:33:51I'll text you the address with Mimi.
00:33:52I heard she was sneaking Preston Eastwood into her trailer on set.
00:34:08Oh, please.
00:34:09She's always been so secretive.
00:34:11I mean, this is her movie premiere and where is her husband?
00:34:15Maybe she's embarrassed by him.
00:34:17I read somewhere that he was just a broke writer's assistant.
00:34:22Oh, wow.
00:34:23If we want the tea, let's get it from the pot.
00:34:24Come here.
00:34:25Jackson!

00:34:28Or who she's with?
00:34:29She's with Mr. Eastwood.
00:34:30He's been staying with us.
00:34:31Really?
00:34:32Do you think Mr. Eastwood might be your new daddy?
00:34:33Oh, I hope so.
00:34:34I really hope so.
00:34:37He's way cooler than my old, boring real dad.

00:45:33I'm hungry!
00:45:36Dad!
00:45:37Breakfast should be ready by now.
00:45:40Taxi?
00:45:40I have something to tell you.
00:45:46Your dad.
00:45:49Your dad.
00:45:52He's left us.
00:45:53I'm sorry, but he's not coming back.
00:45:56Yay!
00:45:57He's gone!
00:45:57He's gone!
00:45:59Why would you say that?
00:46:01He was so embarrassing.
00:46:03Even Mr. Eastwood...
00:46:04Mr. Eastwood?
00:46:05What did Preston say?
00:46:07He said a pathetic pussy like that should stick to scrubbing toilets and raising a young man.
00:46:14He was so lame and boring.
00:46:17Now he's gone.
00:46:19Mr. Eastwood is way cooler.
00:46:21He can be my new dad.
00:46:23Jackson!
00:46:23You have a dad.
00:46:25And he's cared for you for seven years.
00:46:28Yeah, but I hate him!
00:46:36Hello?
00:46:37Do you have any news about Daniel?
00:46:39Ms. Donovan, it's your accountant.
00:46:41I noticed a few unusual transfers.
00:46:43I'm sorry.
00:46:44I don't have the time.
00:46:45Large sums have been wired to someone named Preston Eastwood.
00:46:49Was that done with your approval?
00:46:51No.
00:46:52But I'm not surprised.
00:46:53Flag his name.
00:46:55I want him frozen and cut off.
00:46:59Jackson, I don't want to ever hear you say Preston's name again.
00:47:02Okay?
00:47:03He's not the man you think he is.
00:47:06Your father, the one who raised you and cared about you, is out there.
00:47:09And we need to find him at all costs.
00:47:13What kind of coward abandons his family?
00:47:16Huh?
00:47:16It's despicable.
00:47:18I can't do this anymore.
00:47:21I'll cancel everything.
00:47:22The interviews, the red carpets.
00:47:25I don't want to be seen.
00:47:27I can't pretend.
00:47:30I just want him back.
00:47:32Honey.
00:47:33It's time to let him go.
00:47:35You don't love him anyway.
00:47:37And think about what Preston would do for your career.
00:47:44What?
00:47:45How could you say something like that?
00:47:47Of course I love Daniel.
00:47:50He cares for me.
00:47:51He sees me.
00:47:52He was there for me when Preston dropped me like I was nothing.
00:47:57But Daniel is a pathetic nobody.
00:47:59Daniel is my husband.
00:48:02And the father of my son.
00:48:04Yeah, some husband.
00:48:06Abandoning you without a moment's notice.
00:48:08Wanting nothing to do with this child just because I contraended.
00:48:11Contract?
00:48:13What contract?
00:48:18What are you talking about?
00:48:20Forget it.
00:48:22Forget it.
00:48:23Just pretend I didn't say anything.
00:48:25When I caught you and Daniel at the restaurant the other day, you said that he was going on a trip.
00:48:30Is there something you're not telling me?
00:48:33Please.
00:48:33I just want the truth.
00:48:35Mom.
00:48:37Fine.
00:48:39I will tell you the truth.
00:48:40But promise me you won't get mad.
00:48:45I'll tell you the truth, Sabrina.
00:48:49But no, it was all for your own good.
00:48:55When Preston left you, you were distraught.
00:48:58I had to save you.
00:49:01She's lost without you, Daniel.
00:49:04You've always been there for her.
00:49:06From film school to now.
00:49:08I've seen it.
00:49:09She needs you.
00:49:11Stay.
00:49:12Marry her.
00:49:13Love her.
00:49:15So that she's never alone again.
00:49:23It was all just some sort of obligation?
00:49:27How could you do this to me?
00:49:29I wanted to protect you.
00:49:31You wanted to control me.
00:49:33All because you needed me for my career, my money.
00:49:36Well, it worked, didn't it?
00:49:39You were about to throw yourself off a rooftop.
00:49:46Daniel did what he was meant to do.
00:49:48He kept you together.
00:49:50Where?
00:49:51Where did he go?
00:49:53I know he told you where he went.
00:49:55Where is he?
00:49:56You can do better than him.
00:49:58You are Sabrina Donovan, Hollywood starlet.
00:50:02Believe me, it's for the best.
00:50:04No, he can't be gone.
00:50:06He can't.
00:50:07Yes, he is gone and he is gone forever.
00:50:11He can't be.
00:50:12He can't be gone.
00:50:13He can't.
00:50:14I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere of how the team is over Fox that's already generated a considerable buzz for its new writer, director.
00:50:42Speaking of which, there he is now, Mr. Daniel Johnson.
00:50:51Daniel, your film received the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival.
00:50:55What's going through your head tonight?
00:50:58Honestly, I'm just trying not to trip over my own speech.
00:51:01Nobody told me how.
00:51:02Oh, man, how comfortable these designer shoes would be.
00:51:06I've heard this talk of a sequel.
00:51:08Uh, yeah, um, God, my career has been a long time in the making and I've been very honest about it, actually.
00:51:15I almost, I almost gave up the dream.
00:51:17But London, London lit the fire under me and I feel like I found my voice and it really is full steam ahead.
00:51:25Uh, speaking of London, since you're an American rights director, will you be making your way back to Hollywood?
00:51:33Hollywood.
00:51:35Get out of the country.
00:51:37If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your life a living hell.
00:51:46Daniel?
00:51:47He's no good at bragging about himself, so I'll do it for him.
00:52:05Daniel is a true auteur and a creative genius and it was a privilege to be his leading lady.
00:52:12That's not a light compliment coming from Emily Blake, two-time Golden Globe award-winning actress and celebrated alumni of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
00:52:21Well, I've heard that, uh, your relationship wasn't just professional.
00:52:25We'll never tell.
00:52:29Oh, my God, thanks for saying that.
00:52:32She was practically eye-fucking you.
00:52:33I know.
00:52:35This is so surreal.
00:52:36I mean, I can't believe this is happening to me.
00:52:39I can.
00:52:39Daniel, the moment I read your script, I knew you were special.
00:52:44Daniel, enjoy this.
00:52:48And get used to compliments.
00:52:51There's already Oscar buzz.
00:52:52Fuck.
00:52:53Finish me out of it.
00:52:54I feel like I'm dreaming.
00:52:58You okay?
00:53:00You always do that when you're nervous.
00:53:02Yes.
00:53:02I think so.
00:53:03I'll have it.
00:53:04Well, the world's about to meet its new favorite filmmaker.
00:53:09So, let's just go ahead.
00:53:10It's not.
00:53:11I feel like I'll press this good press.
00:53:31Daniel becomes an award-winning director, and he's cheating on me with a BAFTA-winning bitch?
00:53:37He can't do this to me.
00:53:40Sabrina.
00:53:41You don't need him.
00:53:43Let him have his 15 minutes of fame.
00:53:45How can he move on to that uptight British bitch?
00:53:48Move on?
00:53:49Please, honey.
00:53:50He is using her.
00:53:53Why do you think he signed the contract in the first place, hmm?
00:53:56He wanted to start his career under the Donovan name.
00:53:58How could you say that?
00:53:59I mean, if anything, being with me hurt his career.
00:54:04He's proving that to the whole world.
00:54:06Don't you see it?
00:54:07Sabrina.
00:54:09Look at what you've got.
00:54:10A celebrated career, a mansion in the hills, an adorable kid.
00:54:16Well, when he's not whining.
00:54:18And don't forget about Preston.
00:54:20Your dream man.
00:54:22You have everything.
00:54:24I don't have him.
00:54:26Mom, I'm hungry.
00:54:27Go have the chef make something.
00:54:29No, I hate what she cooks.
00:54:31And I'm tired of chicken nuggets.
00:54:33Why can't you just hire Daniel back?
00:54:35Don't talk about him like that.
00:54:37He's your dad.
00:54:38No, Preston is my real dad now.
00:54:41Daniel's just a guy who made me snacks and cleaned the toilet.
00:54:44It was fun telling him what to do.
00:54:46When did he get so cruel?
00:54:48You see, even your own son thinks Daniel's a pathetic pushover.
00:54:52A doormat.
00:54:54Daniel's a doormat.
00:54:56Daniel's a doormat.
00:54:57Daniel's a doormat.
00:54:57Enough!
00:54:58You little shit!
00:55:02Enough!
00:55:02Just enough!
00:55:04Sabrina?
00:55:05What's gotten into you?
00:55:07Don't tell me you are actually heartbroken over that man.
00:55:11Whoa.
00:55:12What's going on here?
00:55:13This room feels really tense.
00:55:15Mom just yelled at me for no reason.
00:55:17I was just making fun of Daniel.
00:55:19No!
00:55:19I yelled at you because you're making fun of your father.
00:55:22And if you keep talking like that, I'm going to put you in a timeout.
00:55:26It's time that you stop acting like a spoiled little brat.
00:55:32Hey, are you really going to get mad at Jackson for what?
00:55:36Making fun of that fucking loser?
00:55:38Really?
00:55:38Loser?
00:55:39You haven't had a job in over a year, Preston.
00:55:43And you've been mooching off from me and ordering my staff around like you're their boss.
00:55:48That's really, really low.
00:55:55Especially after everything I've done to help you with your brand and keeping it from collapsing in the last year.
00:56:00Come on, we're America's power couple.
00:56:02To be a power couple, you both have to have power.
00:56:05Face it, Preston.
00:56:07You're using me to hide the fact that you're washed up.
00:56:10And you're a fucking thief.
00:56:13Yeah, I know you're bankrupt.
00:56:14You've been stealing from me all year long.
00:56:17I could have you arrested, but I haven't.
00:56:20Because you know what?
00:56:21Honestly, I pity you.
00:56:23It's not like that, okay?
00:56:25Look, I was just merging things like couples do.
00:56:28I want to marry you.
00:56:29We're legacy Hollywood fucking royalty.
00:56:31What's my birthday?
00:56:33Huh?
00:56:34What kind of flowers do I like?
00:56:36What's my favorite color?
00:56:38My favorite song?
00:56:39Oh, what's my favorite goddamn movie?
00:56:41Oh, oh, wait.
00:56:43What's my fucking middle name?
00:56:45You don't give a shit about me.
00:56:47You don't love me.
00:56:49You don't even know me.
00:56:51This isn't a relationship.
00:56:53This is a publicity stunt.
00:56:55And you know what?
00:56:56I'm done.
00:56:57Get out.
00:56:59I don't want to ever see you again.
00:57:01We're over.
00:57:03We're over.
00:57:04No, babe, babe, come on.
00:57:05Please.
00:57:06Please, I love you.
00:57:07Just think about it.
00:57:09Look at the press.
00:57:09What this will look like.
00:57:11If I have to call my security, all of this will get a lot of weird.
00:57:15Get out.
00:57:17Now.
00:57:18Just give me your hand.
00:57:19Come on.
00:57:19No.
00:57:19I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:57:23Nobody sees the real me.
00:57:25I see you, Sabrina.
00:57:27I see all of you.
00:57:29And you're never going to be alone again.
00:57:31He truly knew me.
00:57:36He loved me.
00:57:38Every flaw.
00:57:40Every fear.
00:57:41Contract or not.
00:57:43He truly loved me.
00:57:45I saved you from social suicide.
00:57:47Saved me?
00:57:49You don't even know how ironic that is.
00:57:52Daniel saved me from the ledge.
00:57:54And he saved me from you.
00:57:58Security!
00:58:00Security!
00:58:01Come on.
00:58:01Just let's talk about this.
00:58:03No.
00:58:04Come on.
00:58:05Celeste, do something.
00:58:07Sabrina!
00:58:08Come on, Sabrina!
00:58:10Was that really necessary?
00:58:12I mean, he still is a Hollywood A-lister and people's sexiest man alive.
00:58:16Is that all you care about?
00:58:18The fame, the headlines, the brand deals?
00:58:22God, you're supposed to be my mother first, not some money-grubbing manager.
00:58:27Sabrina, you are being dramatic.
00:58:30Of course I care about you.
00:58:33I love you.
00:58:35Then prove it.
00:58:36If you ever want me in front of a camera again, then you will help me get Daniel back.
00:58:41You'll have to forgive me, Mr. Lee.
00:58:55I'm kind of in shock right now.
00:58:58In film school, we were literally told to watch every single film that you ever produced.
00:59:03I mean, you know this.
00:59:05You're a legend.
00:59:06I appreciate it, Daniel.
00:59:07All right, let me cut to the chase.
00:59:09You're a powerhouse-sitting idol in the wrong country.
00:59:12I appreciate the compliment, but I mean, I'm doing all right.
00:59:14I got projects.
00:59:15Come on.
00:59:16You're built for billion-dollar franchises, Hollywood blockbusters, the one that gets made
00:59:20in L.A., not London.
00:59:22That's where you belong.
00:59:24To be honest, I already did L.A.
00:59:27It didn't really end well.
00:59:28Let me guess.
00:59:29My girl?
00:59:30If by a girl, he means Hollywood royalty, Sabrina Donovan.
00:59:35You don't walk away from a gift like yours over some heartbreak.
00:59:39You can become a household name, and I can get you there.
00:59:43You're giving me a lot to think about.
00:59:44Three-picture deal.
00:59:45Two hundred million dollar budget each.
00:59:47Creative control and final cut approval.
00:59:49I don't know what to say.
00:59:50Just say yes.
00:59:51You have my number.
00:59:53Just don't keep me waiting.
00:59:55Just remember, Daniel.
00:59:57You can't run away from the past.
00:59:58You have to face it and tell the fuck off.
01:00:00Hey, it's been a while.
01:00:15Can we talk?
01:00:17Daniel, can you give us a hint about your first movie with Crazy Maple Studio?
01:00:21Of course.
01:00:21It's about a man who gets fucked over by America's sweetheart and comes out on top.
01:00:26Is this a personal story where we get a hint at who the mystery woman is?
01:00:32Oh.
01:00:34She knows who she is.
01:00:36Um, I'll leave it at that.
01:00:41You arrogant little shit.
01:00:43I told you if you ever set foot in this fucking country, I would unleash a world of hell.
01:00:53It's less, Donovan.
01:00:54I need a favor.
01:00:56I need you to track down Daniel Johnson to find out where he'll be around eight o'clock tonight.
01:01:02It's time for a little reunion with Hollywood's newest hotshot.
01:01:06Mom?
01:01:07What are you doing?
01:01:08Did you just break my TV?
01:01:14Can you give us a name for your upcoming film?
01:01:17You know how I'm supposed to do that?
01:01:19You've been so kind, though.
01:01:20Um, it's called You Drive Me Crazy.
01:01:26He's back.
01:01:28Why didn't you tell me?
01:01:30Honey, I didn't want you spiraling again.
01:01:33I'm not a fragile little girl anymore.
01:01:36I need to get on that movie.
01:01:37Absolutely not.
01:01:39You're not working for your ex-husband.
01:01:41If you don't get me an audition, then I will get a manager who will.
01:01:44Oh, honey.
01:01:45I'm just looking out for you.
01:01:46He still loves me.
01:01:49He has to.
01:01:51I just need to talk to him.
01:01:54Let him go.
01:01:57Mom.
01:01:59Honey, I...
01:02:00You know, I just want what's best for you, right?
01:02:05I just don't want to see my little girl hurt again.
01:02:09I love you.
01:02:12I love you, too.
01:02:15Here we go.
01:02:18This is, um...
01:02:19It's another movie deal.
01:02:21I'll tell you about it after.
01:02:22Did you get his location?
01:02:40The Oaks.
01:02:418 p.m.
01:02:43After I'm done with him,
01:02:45Daniel Johnson won't just be blacklisted by Hollywood.
01:02:48He'll be erased from Sabrina's life forever.
01:02:50She's not protecting me.
01:03:02She's protecting her business.
01:03:04And I'm just a pawn.
01:03:06But if she wants a scandal,
01:03:07she'll get one.
01:03:10So nice having you back.
01:03:12And I don't just mean from the UK.
01:03:14Yeah, it's been a rough couple years, hasn't it?
01:03:16A couple?
01:03:17Well, Daniel, it was 10 years of you slaving away for those people.
01:03:22If you can even call them that.
01:03:24But you're healthy now.
01:03:25And I'm at the top of my career.
01:03:27I mean, yeah, there was a time that I...
01:03:29I love Sabrina,
01:03:30but I really thought I could make it work.
01:03:32The marriage, the kids.
01:03:34I mean, we really tried.
01:03:36I thought I could make it go for it,
01:03:37but, um...
01:03:39It's over.
01:03:41It's over.
01:03:42I mean, let her chase whatever fantasy
01:03:44she thinks Preston Eastwood can offer.
01:03:54Oh.
01:03:55You haven't heard?
01:03:57She dumped him.
01:03:59It was all over People magazine.
01:04:01She ended it when his star faded.
01:04:04Oh, my God.
01:04:05What?
01:04:05What?
01:04:05Daniel!
01:04:15Stop!
01:04:23Sabrina, what are you doing here?
01:04:25I'm here to help you.
01:04:27Sabrina,
01:04:28you're making a scene.
01:04:30Let's go home.
01:04:31Sabrina?
01:04:31How could you?
01:04:32I just came to ask Daniel
01:04:35if he'd let you audition,
01:04:36but he said no.
01:04:37I begged and pleaded.
01:04:39Stop lying.
01:04:40I saw you bribe the waiter
01:04:42to drug Daniel's drink.
01:04:44And I'll bet you called the paparazzi, too,
01:04:47to catch him drugged out of his mind
01:04:48and ruin him.
01:04:50My God.
01:04:51You're disgusting.
01:04:52I'm a manager, Daniel.
01:04:54Not anymore.
01:04:56Why did you become such a
01:04:57conniving, scheming snake?
01:05:00I don't even know
01:05:01who you are anymore.
01:05:03I'm your mother.
01:05:05I only want what's best for you.
01:05:08What's best for me?
01:05:12You've been controlling my life
01:05:13ever since you knew
01:05:14you could profit from it.
01:05:17That all ends today.
01:05:21You're fired.
01:05:23You're fired.
01:05:25No.
01:05:26No.
01:05:28No.
01:05:33No.
01:05:34You can't do this to me.
01:05:36Please.
01:05:37Please, sweetie.
01:05:38I have dedicated my life to you.
01:05:39You dedicated your life
01:05:41to money
01:05:41and to fame.
01:05:45I was just who you used to get to it.
01:05:47You think you can survive
01:05:48on sheer talent?
01:05:50There's a thousand girls more talented
01:05:52than you waiting for their shot.
01:05:53I made you.
01:05:55You'd be nothing without me.
01:06:00I think she'll do just fine.
01:06:07We're done here, Mom.
01:06:10If you want any chance
01:06:11to be in Jackson's life
01:06:13or in mine,
01:06:15you'll leave now.
01:06:17Without another word.
01:06:19I have something to say.
01:06:33I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:06:36I'm sorry I took you for granted
01:06:38all of those years.
01:06:39I'm sorry I let my mom
01:06:41manipulate and use you.
01:06:43I'm sorry I brought
01:06:45Preston into our home
01:06:47and poisoned our son
01:06:49towards you.
01:06:53Apologize to your father.
01:06:55Do I have to?
01:06:57Who raised you?
01:07:00Cared for you?
01:07:02Packed your lunches
01:07:03when I was on set?
01:07:06Laid with you
01:07:06when you had nightmares
01:07:07and coddled you
01:07:08when you were sick?
01:07:10He did.
01:07:11He loved you.
01:07:12But you treated him
01:07:13like he was nothing.
01:07:15I was wrong.
01:07:16Jackson,
01:07:17he gave us 10 years
01:07:19of his life
01:07:19and we abused it.
01:07:21And now there is
01:07:23nothing we can do
01:07:24to take that back.
01:07:26I'm sorry, Dad.
01:07:30It's gonna be okay, son.
01:07:32I love you.
01:07:34Okay.
01:07:35Come on, Jackson.
01:07:36Let's go.
01:07:36Come on.
01:07:42I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:07:46For everything.
01:07:55I know that look, Daniel.
01:07:58You're thinking of going back to them.
01:08:01No.
01:08:03I just didn't know it'd be this hard.
01:08:05They hurt you, Daniel.
01:08:08They tore you to pieces
01:08:10and then just expected you
01:08:12to come running back.
01:08:15People can change.
01:08:18But that doesn't change the past.
01:08:23And the Oscar goes to
01:08:25Daniel Johnson
01:08:27for his original screenplay,
01:08:29Loving Her.
01:08:32Daniel!
01:08:32Daniel!
01:08:33Daniel!
01:08:34Daniel!
01:08:34Daniel, Daniel!
01:08:35Daniel, is it true
01:08:36that the script
01:08:36that won you Oscars
01:08:37for both writing
01:08:38and directing
01:08:39sat on a shelf
01:08:39for 10 years?
01:08:40Yes.
01:08:41I'll admit I got
01:08:42a little sidelined,
01:08:43but I think
01:08:45I found my way back.
01:08:47But, okay,
01:08:48I'll tell you this.
01:08:51I don't think
01:08:51you can truly
01:08:52love someone else
01:08:53until
01:08:54you love yourself.
01:09:01Way to go, John!

01:10:35I'm glad to be back.
01:10:37Well, it's not
01:10:38English countryside.
01:10:39Yeah.
01:10:39But it suits you.
01:10:43You definitely
01:10:44belong here.
01:10:46I do miss you, though.
01:10:49It was fun.
01:10:50Playing the part.
01:10:52British starlet.
01:10:54American director.
01:10:56I kept waiting for us
01:10:57to become something real.
01:11:00Waiting for us
01:11:01to become something real.
01:11:03I'm sorry,
01:11:04Emily.
01:11:05It just cost me,
01:11:07and we'll call it even.
01:11:09You were amazing,
01:11:10as always.
01:11:12It's just...
01:11:13It's just not quite
01:11:15what I'm looking for.
01:11:18I never was,
01:11:19was I?
01:11:20Anyways,
01:11:22got a few more auditions
01:11:23while I'm in town.
01:11:25Maybe I'll see you around.
01:11:27Yeah.
01:11:27Give me a copy,
01:11:40and you know what?
01:11:41Go get one for yourself, too.
01:11:44And be generous
01:11:45with the sugar.
01:11:52Oh, my God.
