00:00:00And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
00:00:07That loser actually won an Oscar?
00:00:11Who knew the house hubby had it in him? I'm an industry joke now.
00:00:15Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on a shelf for 10 years?
00:00:21Wow, you did your homework. Yes, I got sidelined for a little bit, but I think I found my way back.
00:00:26Um, I will tell you this. I don't think you can truly love others until you truly love yourself.
00:00:33Daniel really did it. The one standing by his side isn't me anymore.
00:00:39You think you can divorce America's sweetheart? You're nothing but a fucking house husband, Daniel.
00:00:44Our contract expired. I'm only telling you because you're her manager.
00:00:49If you try and divorce my daughter, you will end up with nothing. The mansion, the money, even your own son will belong to her.
00:00:56I'll always love my son.
00:01:00But he's a bully, and he learned it from the best in the business, his grandmother.
00:01:04You used to worship Sabrina. What happened?
00:01:07That was a long time ago.
00:01:09America's sweetheart, Sabrina Donovan, attempts suicide.
00:01:12All for her co-star and Hollywood's golden boy, Preston Eastwood.
00:01:15But her career's hanging by a thread. I need to get those paparazzi off her back.
00:01:22You've always loved her, Daniel. I've seen it.
00:01:25She needs that now. Stay. Marry her. Love her. So that she doesn't face the world alone.
00:01:33I might not have been Sabrina's first love, but I would be her last.
00:01:37And I'd cherish her like no other man would.
00:01:41If Preston Eastwood's really back, then maybe the last ten years meant more to me than they ever did to her.
00:01:47This was the last one.
00:01:51Mom, Daniel.
00:01:53What's going on?
00:01:58What's going on?
00:01:59Honey!
00:02:01I was just telling Daniel he needs to stop dressing like a bum.
00:02:05If the paparazzi catch him next to you, oh!
00:02:08But I need to go. I have an appointment with your stylist.
00:02:13Think about it, Daniel.
00:02:18Once Sabrina signs the divorce petition, the 30-day waiting period starts, and then I will be free.
00:02:25Sabrina, we need to talk.
00:02:27Ugh, can it wait?
00:02:28I'm seriously so spent.
00:02:31I had the photo shoot and fitting and cocktails with girls.
00:02:35I saw Preston was there.
00:02:38I mean, he got us our first movie deal right out of college.
00:02:41I mean, we owe him.
00:02:42Yeah, and then he cheated on you, and I'm the one who picked up the pieces.
00:02:46I'm starving. When are we eating?
00:02:49Lunch is on the stove.
00:02:51But first, your mother and I need to talk.
00:02:53No! I want to eat now!
00:02:55You always know the spot.
00:03:08He doesn't listen.
00:03:09Daniel, please.
00:03:11I had a migraine all day from the flashing bulbs that got off of Vanity Fair shoot.
00:03:16I got something I need to tell you. I'll make it quick. This isn't easy, but I'm...
00:03:22Ew! What is this?
00:03:24It's mom's vegetable and quinoa stew.
00:03:26I don't want healthy food! I want chicken nuggets! Chicken nuggets! Chicken nuggets!
00:03:30You can't have that every day. It's not healthy for you.
00:03:34But I want them!
00:03:36Jackson, when I say no, I mean no.
00:03:40You suck! I want chicken nuggets! Give me chicken nuggets!
00:03:44I waited. I gave it everything I had.
00:03:55But it takes two to make a marriage work.
00:03:58And my self-absorbed wife would rather be with the man that almost ruined her life than me.
00:04:03Enough. Just enough.
00:04:05I want a divorce.
00:04:12I want a divorce.
00:04:18Sabrina, did you hear me?
00:04:22Huh?
00:04:23I want a...
00:04:27I want chicken nuggets! Give me chicken nuggets!
00:04:29Jackson, honey, you need to listen to your father, okay?
00:04:34Now go upstairs, get cleaned up. We'll get you some real food.
00:04:42Seriously?
00:04:43Your only job is to take care of the house and the family.
00:04:46I mean, it's not that hard.
00:04:49What is this?
00:04:51Another contract?
00:04:52How big is the role?
00:04:54Who's directing?
00:04:56It's not a...
00:04:57Whatever. My mom will look over it anyways.
00:04:58It's hard to believe I can't even get her to care about this.
00:05:02Honestly, I am really at my capacity.
00:05:05I have that red carpet event coming up, and I really need you to pull your weight.
00:05:10Pull my weight?
00:05:11Yeah, you get it.
00:05:14Mwah! Love you.
00:05:16I've devoted myself to this family for ten long years.
00:05:20If that wasn't enough, then this is the only option.
00:05:23Just wait until she realizes what life's like without me.
00:05:28The movie's greenlit, and the studio wants you to direct.
00:05:36We need you on a plane to Australia tomorrow.
00:05:38I can't.
00:05:39My wife needs me here in L.A.
00:05:41After all I've sacrificed,
00:05:43my scripts,
00:05:44my career,
00:05:45my future,
00:05:46we're all pushed aside.
00:05:49At least there is one good thing to come from this.
00:05:52I was able to use the money Celeste gave me to save my mother's life.
00:05:56Hey, Mom.
00:05:56How you doing?
00:05:57Oh, good, dear.
00:05:58I just noticed that you transfer more money to my account.
00:06:03Do you need more?
00:06:04No, no, no, no.
00:06:04You've already done so much.
00:06:07I'm just trying to help.
00:06:08I know,
00:06:09but I never wanted my cancer to be your battle.
00:06:13I can't thank you enough for everything that you've done,
00:06:17but it's time you lived your life.
00:06:20I am, Mom.
00:06:22And I promise,
00:06:25very soon,
00:06:26everything's going to change.
00:06:30That's wonderful, dear.
00:06:31You deserve more than what they put you through.
00:06:34Everyone, come quick, come quick!
00:06:36I gotta go.
00:06:37Love you.
00:06:40What is it, Mom?
00:06:42Someone very special decided to pay us a visit.
00:06:44Our favorite leading man.
00:06:46Come on.
00:06:50Preston Eastwood,
00:06:54the man that broke my wife's heart
00:06:56and is stealing it back again.
00:07:01Preston Eastwood,
00:07:02the man that broke my wife's heart.
00:07:10All right, cut.
00:07:11That's a wrap, everyone.
00:07:14We got our start on the set of Breaking the Ice.
00:07:17Sabrina was a rising star.
00:07:20I was just the director's assistant.
00:07:24Our future's ahead of us.
00:07:27If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.
00:07:31you know,
00:07:31the man that broke my wife's heart.
00:07:43No.
00:07:43The younger girl,
00:07:44you wouldn't mind her,
00:07:44no,
00:07:44the same секё j Stevenson.
00:07:54No.
00:07:54Get 57.
00:07:55You destroyed me, Preston.
00:08:05There's nothing left.
00:08:19Kariya, don't!
00:08:21Stay back.
00:08:23I mean it.
00:08:24Sabrina, don't do this.
00:08:28Just...
00:08:30Just give me your hand.
00:08:43No!
00:08:46Daniel!
00:08:47I got you.
00:08:49No!
00:08:50Don't let me go!
00:08:52I won't ever let you go.
00:08:54I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:09:02Nobody sees the real me.
00:09:03I see you, Sabrina.
00:09:05I see all of you.
00:09:08And you're never going to be alone again.
00:09:09Good to see you.
00:09:10Good to see you.
00:09:18Oh, my gosh.
00:09:20How long has it been?
00:09:20Oh, too long.
00:09:21Look at you.
00:09:23Oh, I'm so glad you could make it to my little slice in the Hollywood Hills.
00:09:26Yeah, of course, babe.
00:09:27Thank you for letting me stay here for a little bit.
00:09:29Are you kidding?
00:09:29Oh, Daniel, Preston's going to stay with us for a bit, but you don't mind, right?
00:09:34Oh, there he is.
00:09:35The assistant.
00:09:36I'll tell you what.
00:09:37There's no one who grabs coffee quite like this guy.
00:09:40How did someone like you end up with a blonde bombshell like my Sabrina?
00:09:45Stop.
00:09:45I can't believe my wife would invite the ex she tried to kill herself over into our home.
00:09:52Sabrina, I don't remember agreeing to having him stay over.
00:09:56Daniel.
00:09:56Oh.
00:09:57Don't embarrass me.
00:09:58No, it's fine.
00:09:59Whoa, you played Brett Steele in your action spy movie?
00:10:04He's not just tough.
00:10:05He's Brett Steele tough.
00:10:07You think, you know?
00:10:08My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch it.
00:10:10He doesn't let me do anything.
00:10:11Now that I'm here, we'll be able to bend some of dad's rules.
00:10:15So what do you say, huh?
00:10:16Yeah.
00:10:17Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves.
00:10:21It's fine.
00:10:22It's fine.
00:10:24Just relax, okay?
00:10:26Be nice.
00:10:35Some people never change.
00:10:37But once our divorce is finalized, I won't be there to save her when he breaks her heart again.
00:10:43Yeah, it's nice.
00:10:45But this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on the sale.
00:10:55Oh, careful.
00:10:57You all right?
00:11:00I'm still starving.
00:11:02Make me some food.
00:11:03Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.
00:11:06Stew?
00:11:06Oh, what is this, a soup kitchen?
00:11:10I told you a hundred times I want chicken nuggets!
00:11:13Daniel, if the kid wants nuggets, just give him nuggets.
00:11:16I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:11:19Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:11:22What?
00:11:24For real?
00:11:25Yeah.
00:11:26My makeup line took me all the way to the top.
00:11:29Donovan Cosmetics.
00:11:31I'm rich.
00:11:33Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:11:36I mean, that's just something poor people tell themselves so that they're happy with nothing.
00:11:40See, Daniel, that was always your problem.
00:11:42You're so caught up on the morals.
00:11:44You realize that's why no one bought your scripts.
00:11:45They were so dull.
00:11:47Please, Mr. Eastwood, my dad won't let me have anything!
00:11:50Lucky for you, Uncle Preston is a little bit of a rebel.
00:11:54So, how about we go to an exclusive restaurant?
00:11:58My treat.
00:12:00Here we go.
00:12:00What?
00:12:01Yeah.
00:12:02Oh, you don't have to do that.
00:12:03I don't mind.
00:12:04All of you insist.
00:12:06I mean, I'm already dressed.
00:12:07So.
00:12:09Okay.
00:12:11Oh, and I wouldn't bite you, Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress cut.
00:12:15So.
00:12:16Anyways.
00:12:16Come on, Ben.
00:12:17Let's go.
00:12:19Screw you.
00:12:19Gotcha.
00:12:20There we go.
00:12:21Oh.
00:12:23There's Paps.
00:12:24You don't have to come, Daniel.
00:12:27Last time.
00:12:28I promise.
00:12:30You're right.
00:12:32It is the last time.
00:12:35Hey, guys.
00:12:37Jackson.
00:12:38Jackson.

00:12:49Contract's fine.
00:12:52It's over.
00:12:52Why don't you meet me at the Oaks to finalize the paperwork?
00:12:57I hope you're ready to go on without a penny to your name.
00:13:01To 10 years of heartbreak?
00:13:02I don't care if I walk away with nothing.

00:28:22It needs the right producer
00:28:32I know it's a long shot
00:28:34but I'd be honoured if you'd read it
00:28:35where have you been?
00:28:39I kept calling
00:28:40I started to feel like one of my stalkers
00:28:43huh?
00:28:44what?
00:28:48what?
00:28:48I've been busy
00:28:49anyways I thought you were busy entertaining Preston

00:29:04I'm sorry

00:29:06bringing Preston into our home
00:29:09was probably crossing a line

00:29:15but I mean
00:29:17you know how the industry works
00:29:19you even just hint at a relationship
