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.
00:07:31Oh, my God.
00:07:46I don't know.
00:07:48Iamo Never.
00:07:49Ha ha ha ha.
00:08:01You destroyed me, Preston.
00:08:04There's nothing left.
00:08:19Sabrina, don't!
00:08:21Stay back.
00:08:23I mean it.
00:08:25Sabrina, don't do this.
00:08:27Just...
00:08:31Just give me your hand.
00:08:43No!
00:08:45Daniel!
00:08:47I got you.
00:08:49No!
00:08:50Don't let me go!
00:08:52I won't ever let you go.
00:08:58I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:09:01Nobody sees the real me.
00:09:03I see you, Sabrina.
00:09:05I see all of you.
00:09:07And you're never gonna be alone again.
00:09:17Good to see ya.
00:09:18Oh, my gosh.
00:09:19How long has it been?
00:09:20Oh, too long.
00:09:21Look at you!
00:09:22Oh, 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.
00:09:28Are you kidding?
00:09:29Oh, Daniel.
00:09:30Uh, Preston's gonna stay with us for a bit, but you don't mind, right?
00:09:33Oh, there he is!
00:09:35The assistant!
00:09:36I'll tell you what, there's no one who grabs coffee quite like this guy.
00:09:39How did someone like you end up with a blonde bombshell like my Sabrina?
00:09:44Stop!
00:09:45I can't believe my wife would invite the ex she tried to kill herself over into our home.
00:09:51Sabrina, I don't remember agreeing to having him stay over.
00:09:55Daniel!
00:09:56Oh.
00:09:57Don't embarrass me.
00:09:58No, it's fine.
00:09:59Whoa, you?
00:10:00Played Bret Steele in your action spy movie?
00:10:03He's not just tough, he's Bret Steele tough, you think, you know?
00:10:07My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch it.
00:10:09He doesn't let me do anything.
00:10:11Now that I'm here, we'll be able to bend some of dad's rules.
00:10:14What are you saying, huh?
00:10:16Yeah.
00:10:17Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves.
00:10:20It's fine.
00:10:22It's fine.
00:10:23Just relax, okay?
00:10:25Be nice.
00:10:34Some people never change.
00:10:36But once our divorce is finalized, I won't be there to save her when he breaks her heart again.
00:10:42Yeah, it's nice.
00:10:45But this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on this hill.
00:10:48Oh, careful.
00:10:49You all right?
00:10:50I'm still starving.
00:10:51Make me some food.
00:10:52Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.
00:10:53Stew?
00:10:54Ew.
00:10:55What is this, a soup kitchen?
00:10:56I told you a hundred times I want chicken nuggets!
00:10:59Daniel, if the kid wants nuggets, just give him nuggets!
00:11:00I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:11:04Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:11:05What?
00:11:06Oh, babe.
00:11:07For real?
00:11:08Yeah.
00:11:09My makeup line took me all the way to the top.
00:11:10Donovan Cosmetics.
00:11:11I'm rich.
00:11:12Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:11:14I mean, that's just something poor people tell themselves so that they're happy with nothing.
00:11:15See, Daniel, that was always your problem.
00:11:16You're so caught up on the morals.
00:11:17You realize that's why no one bought your scripts.
00:11:18They were so dull.
00:11:19Please?
00:11:20No.
00:11:21No.
00:11:22No.
00:11:23No.
00:11:24No.
00:11:25No.

00:11:32No.
00:11:33No.

00:11:42No.
00:11:43No.
00:11:44No.
00:11:45No.
00:11:46No.
00:11:47No, why are all the people doing my adjectives?
00:11:48They were so dull at me.
00:11:49Please, 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?

00:40:39What about me?
00:40:40You had your chance ten years ago.
00:40:43I need to go take care of my husband.
00:40:51Hello?
00:40:52Excuse me.
00:40:54Excuse me.
00:40:55Hi.
00:40:55Have you seen my husband?
00:40:58Please, he was someone bleeding out.
00:40:59I saw him stumble outside holding his head after he spoke to some older woman.
00:41:04He didn't come back in, though.
00:41:05I'm sorry, but the number you are trying to reach is no longer in service.
00:41:15Please try again later.
00:41:18What have I done?
00:41:19Come on, Daniel.
00:41:31Answer me.
00:41:37He's not gone.
00:41:39I know Daniel wouldn't leave me.
00:41:49He loves me too much to abandon me when I need him the most.
00:41:57It's not possible.
00:41:59He will be back.
00:42:01Boy, it's all assets.
00:42:16Climb zero, Castillo, Jackson.
00:42:18The waves all spousal support.
00:42:21No.
00:42:22No, he can't leave me.
00:42:24He can't do this to me.
00:42:25I won't sign off on him.
00:42:27No.
00:42:27No.
00:42:28No.
00:42:28No.
00:42:28No.
00:42:29No.
00:42:29No.
00:42:30All this time, who's going to leave me?
00:42:55It can't be.
00:42:57It's not a...
00:43:00Honestly, it doesn't matter.
00:43:01My mom will look it over anyways.
00:43:03He loves me.
00:43:06He loves Jackson.
00:43:08He wouldn't just leave us.
00:43:10We're his family.
00:43:11After all these years, everything we've been through...
00:43:15I got you.
00:43:33Don't let me go.
00:43:35I got you.
00:43:37Don't let me go.
00:43:40Was I ever really paying attention?
00:43:46Daniel?
00:43:47No, it's Mom.
00:43:49Is everything okay?
00:43:50You sound panicked.
00:43:51Mom.
00:43:53Mom.
00:43:55Daniel.
00:43:56He just left us.
00:43:59Do you know where he is?
00:44:00We have to find him.
00:44:02We can check the hospital or the...
00:44:04Oh, honey.
00:44:06It's over.
00:44:08Daniel's not coming back.
00:44:10You knew?
00:44:11I'll come over in the morning and explain everything.
00:44:22I'm hungry.
00:44:23I'm hungry.
00:44:24Dad, breakfast should be ready by now.
00:44:28Jackson?
00:44:28I have something to tell you.
00:44:34Your dad.
00:44:37Your dad.
00:44:39He's left us.
00:44:42I'm sorry, but he's not coming back.
00:44:44Yay, he's gone!
00:44:45He's gone!
00:44:47Why would you say that?
00:44:49He was so embarrassing.
00:44:50Even Mr. Eastwood...
00:44:51Mr. Eastwood?
00:44:53What did Preston say?
00:44:55He said a pathetic pussy like that
00:44:57should stick to scrubbing toilets
00:44:59than raising a young man.
00:45:02He was so lame and boring.
00:45:04Now he's gone.
00:45:06Mr. Eastwood is way cooler.
00:45:08He can be my new dad.
00:45:10Jackson.
00:45:11You have a dad.
00:45:12And he's cared for you for seven years.
00:45:15Yeah, but I hate him!
00:45:16Hello?
00:45:24Do you have any news about Daniel?
00:45:26Ms. Donovan, it's your accountant.
00:45:28I noticed a few unusual transfers.
00:45:30I'm sorry, I don't have the time.
00:45:32Large sums have been wired to someone named Preston Eastwood.
00:45:36Was that done with your approval?
00:45:37No.
00:45:38But I'm not surprised.
00:45:40Flag his name.
00:45:41I want him frozen and cut off.
00:45:42Jackson, I don't want to ever hear you say Preston's name again.
00:45:49Okay?
00:45:49He's not the man you think he is.
00:45:52Your father, the one who raised you and cared about you, is out there.
00:45:55And we need to find him at all costs.
00:45:58What kind of coward abandons his family?
00:46:02It's despicable.
00:46:03I can't do this anymore.
00:46:06I cancel everything.
00:46:08The interviews and the red carpets, I don't want to be seen.
00:46:12I can't pretend.
00:46:15I just want him back.
00:46:17Oh, honey.
00:46:19Time to let him go.
00:46:21You don't love him anyway.
00:46:23Think about what Preston would do for your career.
00:46:29What?
00:46:30How could you say something like that?
00:46:32Of course I love Daniel.
00:46:35He cares for me.
00:46:36He sees me.
00:46:37He was there for me when Preston dropped me like I was nothing.
00:46:42But Daniel is a pathetic nobody.
00:46:45Daniel's my husband.
00:46:47And the father of my son.
00:46:49Yeah, some husband.
00:46:50Abandoning you without a moment's notice.
00:46:52Wanting nothing to do with his child just because the contract ended.
00:46:55Contract?
00:46:57What contract?
00:47:02What are you talking about?
00:47:04Forget it.
00:47:06Forget it.
00:47:07Just pretend I didn't say anything.
00:47:09When I caught you and Daniel at the restaurant the other day, you said that he was going on a trip.
00:47:14Is there something you're not telling me?
00:47:16Please.
00:47:17I just want the truth.
00:47:19Mom.
00:47:21Fine.
00:47:21I will tell you the truth.
00:47:24But promise me you won't get mad.
00:47:29I'll tell you the truth, Sabrina.
00:47:32But no, it was all for your own good.
00:47:35When Preston left you, you were distraught.
00:47:42I had to save you.
00:47:44She's lost without you, Daniel.
00:47:47You've always been there for her.
00:47:49From film school to now.
00:47:51I've seen it.
00:47:53She needs you.
00:47:54Stay.
00:47:55Marry her.
00:47:56Love her.
00:47:56So that she's never alone again.
00:47:59It was all just some sort of obligation?
00:48:09How could you do this to me?
00:48:11I wanted to protect you.
00:48:13You wanted to control me.
00:48:15All because you needed me for my career, my money.
00:48:18Well, it worked, didn't it?
00:48:20You were about to throw yourself off a rooftop.
00:48:28Daniel did what he was meant to do.
00:48:30He kept you together.
00:48:32Where?
00:48:33Where did he go?
00:48:34I know he told you where he went.
00:48:36Where is he?
00:48:37You can do better than him.
00:48:40You are Sabrina Donovan.
00:48:42Hollywood starlet.
00:48:44Believe me, it's for the best.
00:48:46No!
00:48:47He can't be gone!
00:48:48He can't!
00:48:48Yes, he is gone, and he is gone forever.
00:48:52He can't be!
00:48:54He can't be gone!
00:48:55He can't!
00:48:55I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere of How to Tame a Silver Fox that's already generated
00:49:20a considerable buzz for its new writer-director.
00:49:25Speaking of which, there he is now, Mr. Daniel Johnson.
00:49:31Daniel, your film received the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival.
00:49:35What's going through your head tonight?
00:49:36Um, honestly, I'm just trying not to trip over my own speed.
00:49:40Nobody told me how.
00:49:42Oh, man, how uncomfortable these designers' shoes would be.
00:49:45I've heard this talk of the sequel.
00:49:47Uh, yeah, um, god, my career's been a long time in the making, and I've been very honest
00:49:54about it, actually.
00:49:55I almost, I almost gave up the dream.
00:49:57But, London, London lit the fire under me, and I feel like I've found my voice, and it
00:50:03really is full steam ahead.
00:50:04Speaking of London, since you're an American writer-director, will you be making your way
00:50:09back to Hollywood?
00:50:12Hollywood.
00:50:14Get out of the country.
00:50:16If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your life a living
00:50:22hell.
00:50:25Daniel?
00:50:34He's no good at bragging about himself, so I'll do it for him.
00:50:43Daniel is a true auteur and a creative genius, and it was a privilege to be his leading lady.
00:50:50That's not a light compliment coming from Emily Blake, two-time Golden Globe Award-winning
00:50:55actress and celebrated alumni of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
00:50:59Well, I've heard that, uh, your relationship wasn't just professional.
00:51:02We'll never tell.
00:51:03Oh, my God, thanks for saving me.
00:51:09She was practically eye-fucking you.
00:51:11I know, jeez.
00:51:13This is so surreal.
00:51:14I mean, I can't believe this is happening to me.
00:51:16I can.
00:51:17The moment I read your script, I knew you were special.
00:51:22Daniel, enjoy this.
00:51:25And get used to compliments.
00:51:28There's already Oscar buzz.
00:51:29Fuck.
00:51:30Finish me, I know.
00:51:31I feel like I'm dreaming.
00:51:33You okay?
00:51:36You always do that when you're nervous.
00:51:38I know, it's, um, I'll have it.
00:51:41Well, the world's about to meet its new favorite filmmaker.
00:51:46Some of us just got a head start.
00:51:47I know, all press is good press.
00:52:01I know, all press is good press.
00:52:01Daniel becomes an award-winning director, and he's cheating on me with a BAFTA-winning bitch?
00:52:14He can't do this to me!
00:52:16Sabrina.
00:52:17You don't need him.
00:52:18Let him have his 15 minutes of fame.
00:52:20How can he move on to that uptight British bitch?
00:52:23Move on?
00:52:24Oh, please, honey.
00:52:26He is using her.
00:52:28Why do you think he signed the contract in the first place, hmm?
00:52:31He wanted to start his career under the Donovan name.
00:52:34How could you say that?
00:52:35I mean, if anything, being with me hurt his career.
00:52:39He's proving that to the whole world.
00:52:42Don't you see it?
00:52:42Sabrina.
00:52:43Sabrina, look at what you've got.
00:52:45A celebrated career, a mansion in the hills, an adorable kid.
00:52:51Well, and he's not whining.
00:52:53And don't forget about Preston, your dream man.
00:52:56You have everything.
00:52:58I don't have him.
00:53:01Mom, I'm hungry.
00:53:02Go have the chef make something.
00:53:04No, I hate what she cooks, and I'm tired of chicken nuggets.
00:53:07Why can't you just hire Daniel back?
00:53:09Don't talk about him like that.
00:53:11He's your dad.
00:53:12No, Preston is my real dad now.
00:53:15Daniel's just a guy who made me snacks and cleaned the toilet.
00:53:18It was fun telling him what to do.
00:53:20When did he get so cruel?
00:53:22You see, even your own son thinks Daniel's a pathetic pushover.
00:53:26A doormat.
00:53:28Daniel's a doormat.
00:53:29Daniel's a doormat.
00:53:31Enough, you little shit.
00:53:35Enough.
00:53:36Just enough.
00:53:38Sabrina, what's gotten into you?
00:53:40Don't tell me you are actually heartbroken over that man.
00:53:44Whoa.
00:53:45What's going on in here?
00:53:47This room feels really tense.
00:53:48Mom just yelled at me for no reason.
00:53:50I was just making fun of Daniel.
00:53:52No.
00:53:53I yelled at you because you're making fun of your father.
00:53:56And if you keep talking like that, I'm going to put you in a timeout.
00:53:59It's time that you stop acting like a spoiled little brat.
00:54:02Hey man, are you really going to get mad at Jackson for what?
00:54:09Making fun of that fucking loser?
00:54:11Really?
00:54:11Loser?
00:54:12Yeah.
00:54:13You haven't had a job in over a year, Preston.
00:54:16And you've been mooching off of me and ordering my staff around like you're their boss.
00:54:21That's really, really low.
00:54:27Especially after everything I've done to help you with your brand and keeping it from collapsing in the last year.
00:54:32Come on, we're America's power couple.
00:54:34To be a power couple, you both have to have power.
00:54:38Face it, Preston.
00:54:39You're using me to hide the fact that you're washed up.
00:54:42And you're a fucking thief.
00:54:45Yeah, I know you're bankrupt.
00:54:46You've been stealing from me all year long.
00:54:49I could have you arrested, but I haven't.
00:54:52Because you know what?
00:54:53Honestly, I pity you.
00:54:54It's not like that.
00:54:56Okay, look, I was just merging things like couples do.
00:54:59I want to marry you.
00:55:01We're legacy Hollywood fucking royalty.
00:55:03What's my birthday?
00:55:05Huh?
00:55:06What kind of flowers do I like?
00:55:07What's my favorite color?
00:55:09My favorite song?
00:55:10Oh, what's my favorite goddamn movie?
00:55:13Oh, oh, wait.
00:55:13What's my fucking middle name?
00:55:16You don't give a shit about me.
00:55:18You don't love me.
00:55:20You don't even know me.
00:55:21This isn't a relationship.
00:55:23This is a publicity stunt.
00:55:26And you know what?
00:55:27I'm done.
00:55:28Get out.
00:55:29I don't want to ever see you again.
00:55:32We're over.
00:55:33We're over.
00:55:34No, babe, babe, come on.
00:55:36Please, please, I love you.
00:55:37Just think about it.
00:55:39Look at the press.
00:55:40What does it look like?
00:55:41If I have to call my security, all of this will get a lot uglier.
00:55:45Get out.
00:55:46Hey, just...
00:55:47Now!
00:55:48Just give me your hand.
00:55:49Come on.
00:55:49No.
00:55:50I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:55:53Nobody sees the real thing.
00:55:55I see you, Sabrina.
00:55:56I see all of you.
00:55:59And you're never going to be alone again.
00:56:02He truly knew me.
00:56:06He loved me.
00:56:08Every flaw.
00:56:09Every fear.
00:56:11Contract or not.
00:56:13He truly loved me.
00:56:15I saved you from social suicide!
00:56:17Saved me?
00:56:17I mean, you don't even know how ironic that is.
00:56:21Daniel saved me from the ledge.
00:56:23And he saved me from you.
00:56:27Security!
00:56:29Security!
00:56:30Come on.
00:56:30Just let's talk about this.
00:56:32No.
00:56:33Come on.
00:56:34Celeste, do something!
00:56:36Sabrina!
00:56:37Come on, Sabrina!
00:56:38Sabrina!
00:56:39Was that really necessary?
00:56:41I mean, he still is a Hollywood A-lister and people's sexiest man alive.
00:56:45Is that all you care about?
00:56:47The fame, the headlines, the brand deals?
00:56:50God!
00:56:51You're supposed to be my mother first, not some money-grubbing manager.
00:56:56Sabrina, you are being dramatic.
00:56:59Of course I care about you.
00:57:01I love you.
00:57:03Then prove it.
00:57:04If you ever want me in front of a camera again, then you will help me get Daniel back.
00:57:16You'll have to forgive me, Mr. Lee.
00:57:23I'm kind of in shock right now.
00:57:25In film school, we were literally told to watch every single film that you ever produced.
00:57:31I mean, you know this.
00:57:32You're a legend.
00:57:33I appreciate it, Daniel.
00:57:35All right, let me cut to the chase.
00:57:37You're a powerhouse sitting idol in the wrong country.
00:57:39I appreciate the compliment, but I mean, I'm doing all right.
00:57:41I got projects.
00:57:42Come on!
00:57:43You're built for billion-dollar franchises, Hollywood blockbusters, the one that gets made
00:57:47in L.A., not London.
00:57:49That's where you belong.
00:57:51To be honest, I already did all.
00:57:53It didn't really end well.
00:57:55Let me guess.
00:57:56A girl?
00:57:57If by a girl, he means Hollywood royalty, Sabrina Donovan.
00:58:02You don't walk away from a gift like yours over some heartbreak.
00:58:05You can become a household name, and I can get you there.
00:58:09You're giving me a lot to think about.
00:58:10Three-picture deal.
00:58:12$200 million budget each.
00:58:13Creative control and final cut approval.
00:58:16I don't know what to say.
00:58:17Just say yes.
00:58:18You have my number.
00:58:19Just don't keep me waiting.
00:58:20Just remember, Daniel, you can't run away from the past.
00:58:24You have to face it and tell the fuck off.
00:58:38Hey, it's been a while.
00:58:41Can we talk?
00:58:42Daniel, can you give us a hint about your first movie with Crazy Maple Studio?
00:58:47Of course.
00:58:47It's about a man who gets fucked over by America's sweetheart.
00:58:50And comes out on top.
00:58:52Is this a personal story?
00:58:54Will we get a hint at who the mystery woman is?
00:58:57Oh, she knows who she is.
00:59:02I'll leave it at that.
00:59:06You arrogant little shit.
00:59:08I told you, if you ever set foot in this fucking country, I would unleash a world of hell.
00:59:18It's Celeste Donovan.
00:59:19I need a favor.
00:59:20I need you to track down Daniel Johnson and find out where he'll be around 8 o'clock tonight.
00:59:26It's time for a little reunion with Hollywood's newest hotshot.
00:59:31Mom?
00:59:31What are you doing?
00:59:36Did you just break my TV?
00:59:38Can you give us a name for your upcoming film?
00:59:41You know I'm not supposed to do that.
00:59:43You've been so kind, though.
00:59:45It's called, You Drive Me Crazy.
00:59:50He's back.
00:59:50Why didn't you tell me?
00:59:54Honey, I didn't want you spiraling again.
00:59:57I'm not a fragile little girl anymore.
00:59:59I need to get on that movie.
01:00:01Absolutely not.
01:00:03You're not working for your ex-husband.
01:00:04If you don't get me an audition, then I will get a manager who will.
01:00:07Honey, I'm just looking out for you.
01:00:10He still loves me.
01:00:13He has to.
01:00:15I just need to talk to him.
01:00:17Let him go.
01:00:20Mom.
01:00:23Honey, I...
01:00:24You know I just want what's best for you, right?
01:00:28I just don't want to see my little girl hurt again.
01:00:32I love you.
01:00:34I love you, too.
01:00:38Here we go.
01:00:41This is, um...
01:00:42It's another movie deal.
01:00:44I'll tell you about it after.
01:00:45Okay.
01:00:50Did you get his location?
01:01:02The Oaks.
01:01:048 p.m.
01:01:05After I'm done with him,
01:01:07Daniel Johnson won't just be blacklisted by Hollywood.
01:01:10He'll be erased from Sabrina's life forever.
01:01:12She's not protecting me.
01:01:23She's protecting her business.
01:01:25And I'm just a pawn.
01:01:27But if she wants a scandal, she'll get one.
01:01:30It's so nice having you back.
01:01:34And I don't just mean from the UK.
01:01:36Yeah, it's been a rough couple of years, hasn't it?
01:01:38A couple?
01:01:39Daniel, it was 10 years of you slaving away for those people.
01:01:43If you can even call them that.
01:01:45But you're healthy now.
01:01:46And I'm at the top of my career.
01:01:48I mean, yeah, there was a time that I loved Sabrina,
01:01:51but I really thought I could make it work.
01:01:53The marriage, the kids.
01:01:55I mean, we really tried.
01:01:57I thought I could make it go for it, but, um...
01:02:00It's over.
01:02:02It's over.
01:02:03I mean, let her chase whatever fantasy
01:02:05she thinks Preston Niswick can offer.
01:02:14Oh.
01:02:15You haven't heard?
01:02:17She dumped him.
01:02:19It was all over People magazine.
01:02:21She ended it when his star faded.
01:02:24Oh, my God.
01:02:25What?
01:02:31Daniel!
01:02:34Stop!
01:02:42Sabrina, what are you doing here?
01:02:44I'm here to help you.
01:02:46Sabrina, we are making a scene.
01:02:49Let's go home.
01:02:50Sabrina.
01:02:51How could you?
01:02:52What?
01:02:52I just came to ask Daniel if he'd let you audition,
01:02:55but he said no.
01:02:56I begged and pleaded.
01:02:58Stop lying.
01:02:59I saw you bribe the waiter to drug Daniel's drink.
01:03:03And I'll bet you called the paparazzi, too,
01:03:05to catch him drugged out of his mind and ruin him.
01:03:08Oh, my God.
01:03:09Oh, my God.
01:03:10You're disgusting.
01:03:11I'm a manager, Daniel.
01:03:13Not anymore.
01:03:14Why did you become such a conniving, scheming snake?
01:03:19I don't even know who you are anymore.
01:03:21I'm your mother.
01:03:23I only want what's best for you.
01:03:27What's best for me?
01:03:30You've been controlling my life ever since you knew you could profit from it.
01:03:34That all ends today.
01:03:39You're fired.
01:03:41You're fired.
01:03:43No.
01:03:46No.
01:03:47You can't do this to me.
01:03:54Please, please, sweetie.
01:03:55I have dedicated my life to you.
01:03:57You dedicated your life to money and to fame.
01:04:02I was just who you used to get to it.
01:04:04You think you can survive on sheer talent?
01:04:07There's a thousand girls more talented than you waiting for their shot.
01:04:11I made you.
01:04:12You'd be nothing without me.
01:04:17I think she'll do just fine.
01:04:24We're done here, Mom.
01:04:27If you want any chance to be in Jackson's life or in mine, you'll leave now.
01:04:34Without another word.
01:04:35I have something to say.
01:04:50I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:04:52I'm sorry I took you for granted all of those years.
01:04:55I'm sorry I let my mom manipulate and use you.
01:05:00I'm sorry I brought Preston into our home and poisoned our son towards you.
01:05:09Apologize to your father.
01:05:11Do I have to?
01:05:13Who raised you?
01:05:15Cared for you?
01:05:17Packed your lunches when I was on set?
01:05:20Laid with you when you had nightmares and coddled you when you were sick?
01:05:25He did.
01:05:26He loved you.
01:05:28But you treated him like he was nothing.
01:05:30I was wrong.
01:05:31Jackson.
01:05:32He gave us ten years of his life and we abused it.
01:05:36And now there is nothing we can do to take that back.
01:05:41I'm sorry, Dad.
01:05:45It's going to be okay, son.
01:05:47I still love you.
01:05:48Okay.
01:05:50Come on, Jackson.
01:05:50Let's go.
01:05:57I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:06:00For everything.
01:06:01Okay.
01:06:10I know that look, Daniel.
01:06:13You're thinking of going back to them.
01:06:15Oh.
01:06:17I just didn't know it would be this hard.
01:06:19They hurt you, Daniel.
01:06:22They tore you to pieces and then just expected you to come running back.
01:06:29People can change.
01:06:32But that doesn't change the past.
01:06:34And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
01:06:45Daniel.
01:06:45Daniel.
01:06:46Daniel.
01:06:47I'm here, Daniel.
01:06:48Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on the shelf for ten years?
01:06:54Yes.
01:06:55I'll admit I got a little sidelined, but I think I found my way back.
01:07:00But, okay, I'll tell you this.
01:07:02Um, I don't think you can truly love someone else until you love yourself.
01:07:13Way to go, John!
01:07:32Thank you so much for considering me for this part.
01:07:36We'll keep in touch.
01:07:43How many more do we have today?
01:07:4440, sir.
01:07:45Jeez.
01:07:46Hey, boy!
01:07:47How are we looking?
01:07:49We're still digging.
01:07:50Um, no one's cracked the lead yet.
01:07:53I mean, this film lives or dies by the female lead.
01:07:56All right, here's the deal.
01:07:58The studio is on my ass looking to lock and delete today.
01:08:02Today?
01:08:03Are you fucking kidding me?
01:08:04That's why I love you, man.
01:08:05Cool under pressure.
01:08:07This movie is going to blow the roof off.
01:08:13Oh, my God.
01:08:13All right, just bring in the next one.
01:08:15But that would be...
01:08:17Emily Blake.
01:08:19Emily.
01:08:26Emily.
01:08:27Amazing as always.
01:08:30You flew in all the way from London for this?
01:08:32Please.
01:08:34I wasn't going to miss a shot who auditioned for the great Daniel Johnson.
01:08:38How's LA treating you?
01:08:40Oh, my God.
01:08:41Less tea, but way more traffic.
01:08:44But I am...
01:08:46I'm glad to be back.
01:08:47Well, it's no English countryside.
01:08:49Yeah.
01:08:50But it suits you.
01:08:53You definitely belong here.
01:08:57I do miss you, though.
01:08:59It was fun.
01:09:00Playing the part.
01:09:02British starlet.
01:09:03American director.
01:09:05I kept waiting for us to become something real.
01:09:10Waiting for us to become something real.
01:09:13I'm sorry, Halloween.
01:09:14Just cast me, and we'll call it even.
01:09:18You were amazing, as always.
01:09:21It's just...
01:09:23It's just not quite what I'm looking for.
01:09:27I never was, was I?
01:09:30Anyways.
01:09:31Got a few more auditions while I'm in town.
01:09:34Maybe I'll see you around?
01:09:36Yeah.
01:09:36Give me a coffee, and you know what?
01:09:50Go get one for yourself, too.
01:09:53And be generous with the sugar.
01:10:00Oh, my God.
01:10:01What am I going to do?
01:10:09That was quick.
01:10:19What are you doing here?
01:10:20I came to audition.
01:10:26Did you bring any representation?
01:10:28No.
01:10:29I fired my manager, remember?
01:10:33I'm starting fresh.
01:10:35Right, um...
01:10:38Hi.
01:10:39I'm Sabrina Donovan.
01:10:44Don't let me go!
01:10:45I got you.
01:10:46I'll never let you go.
01:10:47Are you okay?
01:10:51Yeah.
01:10:52It's an old wound that, um...
01:10:54never really healed.
01:10:58I understand.
01:11:02Daniel Johnson.
01:11:05Nice to meet you.
01:11:09Please.
01:11:09Whatever you're ready.
