00:00I just want to know that you love me.
00:18It's a terrific role for Simone.
00:20As an actress, you're full, you're rich, you tell the truth emotionally, you give lots
00:24of colors that people can use.
00:26That's a gift you give to directors and to audiences.
00:29You and I have said some awful things to each other, Jack.
00:33Or like any other couple.
00:35Don't you fucking say that to me, goddammit!
00:37Are we?
00:38Yeah, sure.
00:40It's all so dark and sexy and toxic.
00:43You're special, Simone.
00:45I want you to expect and demand more.
00:48But that's the gift that actors have, that they can take all these aspects of themselves,
00:52including the sad and the depressed ones, the tragic ones even, and turn it into art.
00:57It's a great gift.
00:58We have to get to the Avalon and finalize the contract before they leave town.
01:04Hello.
01:05Come in, come in, come in.
01:06At some point, love is more of a decision than a feeling.
01:09That happens in times when you fall in love with people and it turns out they're not good for you.
01:13And you have to accept that and move on.
01:15Being alive is enough.
01:17It should be.
01:19This works.
01:20It's expectations that ruin the narrative.
01:22Huh?
01:23They ruin love.
01:25So I walk away?
01:26Of course you do.
01:27If it's bad for you, you have to learn to walk away, obviously.
01:31What's the fun story again?
01:33Getting paid to act is fun.
01:35You know how many women in this town would kill to have your career?
01:38There was a time when you were little and your world was filled with wonder.
01:44Thank God.
01:45I want to go back.
01:46How old were you on the show?
01:48Uh, twelve.
01:49To who I used to be.
01:51Before all of this.
01:53Jack, tell me.
01:54Jack.
01:55Jack.
01:56Tell Simone I am so sorry it wasn't my decision.
01:58I'm dying to work with you.
01:59All the pain you're having is part of your heart.
02:02I need a break.
02:03I get that.
02:04Okay, but if we're gonna go out, we gotta go out on top.
02:08Do you feel lucky?
02:09I do.
02:10I feel lucky too.
02:12Listen, sweetheart.
02:13You go home.
02:14You fix yourself a drink.
02:16You draw yourself a bath.
02:18You count your stars.
02:20You're one of the lucky ones.
02:22You're just one of those child actor trainwrites who's sad.
02:29What happened?
02:31Why don't you use your imagination?
02:33You're so good at that.
02:40I was wondering if you judged me for that.
02:44I didn't.
02:52It's funny because I don't remember it that way.
02:56It's funny.
02:57It's funny because I don't remember it that way.
02:59I'm drifting the sky.
