Interview Page #2

Synopsis: Everyone wants a piece of a celebrity. Pierre is a political reporter, assigned to write a fluff piece on Katya, a blond who acts in slasher movies and a Fox show about single girls in the city. The interview, at a restaurant, goes badly: she's late, he's unprepared and rude. After leaving, he bangs his head in a fender bender and she takes him to her loft to clean the wound. Lubricated by alcohol and competitive natures, the interview resumes. She takes phone calls from her fiancé, Pierre reads her diary on her computer. They discuss wounds, he expresses concern, father-daughter feelings arise. Out come camcorders to tape their darkest secrets. Is friendship or more in the offing?

To Theo.

Love.

Katya.

There you go.

Thanks.

Sorry.

Well, you must get that a lot, huh?

You wouldn't believe half the stuff

I've been asked to sign.

Bicycles, cars, shoes.

Breasts.

Forehead once.

You really don't care at all, do you?

I'm sorry. It's just a little odd for

a journalist to be so uncurious.

I'm sorry I have to say it, you know.

No. No. I apologize.

Am I being unprofessional?

Oh, I think so, don't you?

Just a little?

Do you know how long

I've waited here for you?

No, I do not.

Over an hour.

And yes. Somebody should have called.

Maybe you don't know this

but there's a shitstorm brewing

in Washington.

And my editor wanted to

send me to Washington tonight.

So I can be there for the

press conference tomorrow.

But...

Here I am. For you.

So.

How are we doing?

I think we'll just

get the check please.

Of course.

- Thank you.

Great. Thanks.

You know if you're this

big-time political pundit...

Then why would they send you

to interview me?

Look, I don't know any more

than you do why they sent me.

Maybe they thought it was important.

So like I said, here I am. All right?

Why don't we make the best of it?

Okay, but...

If this is your best then...

It's not a joke.

Oh, and I am?

Here you are.

Thank you.

I'll get it.

No, it's fine. I'll get it.

I have an expense account.

I have a bank account.

Please...

It's my pleasure.

You know what?

It's been very nice wasting

time with you, Peter Peders.

You too, C*nt-ya.

And go f*** yourself.

Thank you. Good-bye.

Can it just be pretty quick?

All right. Have a nice night!

I know who you are.

You are beautiful, baby.

Come on.

Don't be that way.

I just wanna see that smile.

That killer smile.

I love you. Yeah.

You're my girl right there.

Come on, give me the whole thing.

Give me the whole thing.

There goes Katya.

Can you just drive, please?

You don't know who that is?

Watch it.

What the hell

is the matter with you?

Pierre?

Are you all right?

Let me see.

Yeah. No.

It's just a bump. I'm fine.

Pierre your bag!

You've left your bag, Pierre!

Let me have a look at you.

Oh, God.

It's bleeding. Wait.

It really wasn't necessary, you know.

Shut up.

You bumped your head.

Do you have a union card?

Come on.

Hallo.

Hi, honey.

You're at home?

No. No. We're still at the restaurant.

Yeah, I know. But I was late.

'Cause it's pretty quiet here right now.

Yeah. Listen, I'm gonna

have to call you back. Okay?

Yeah. Newsworld.

Sweetie, for the film.

Remember?

Okay, sweetie. I'll call you back.

Just watch the game or something.

Bye.

Now let me see.

I can't see. Get in the light.

Here.

On your head.

Yes, doctor.

You know I could really use a drink.
