and I am detail oriented.

Well, that'll serve you well

in this industry.

Listen, let's talk about

some career goals.

You know,

places you see yourself

down the road a little bit.

Well, I, um...

I love movies.

Think about maybe being

in front of the camera?

Because I gotta tell you,

this whole little get-up

that you have here, this little,

uh, "I'm in a habit,

and I'm pure and innocent,"

and all this naughty

little stuff you have going,

I like it.

I gotta tell you,

I like it a lot.

I mean, we could play

"priest and nun" real quick.

Yes, sir!

Let me ask you,

how bad do you want this job?

I would like this job

very much.

I know there are things

that I have to learn,

but I'm willing

to work very hard and I...

I promise that you can

take a chance on me.

I'm gonna give you a chance,

Lucy.

And I trust you.

I believe in you.

I see it in you.

I think you got it, kid.

I'm gonna have you

on that wall in no time.

I, personally, might be ready

to have you start immediately.

You know what I mean?

Like, now.

- Do you think you might like that?

- Yes.

So why don't you go ahead

and take off your habit?

And then you and I are going

to go up on the altar

and sing a hymn, okay?

Okay.

Great.

Uh, I'll be right back.

[gunshot on television]

Hey, where you going?

[lively music plays]

[man on film] One of the most

celebrated and controversial directors

in the history of film.

[man on film] Like no other

director in the world.

[woman on film]

Winner of five Oscars

and more film awards than

any other film director ever.

The winner is Italy for

Federico Fellini's "8 1/2."

The winner is

Italy for "Amarcord."

The winner is "Nights of

Cabiria." "La Strada."

[man on film] In the history of

movies, there are a few filmmakers

who have expanded

our way of seeing,

and completely changed the way

we experience the art form.

One of them was named

Federico Fellini.

He showed us the darkness

that can overcome the soul,

and then the magic

and spiritual force

that can bring you back

into the light.
