HAL:
something like this can happen.
What...
(struggling to find the
words)
What is it for?
NICOLA:
(smiles through her pain)
-- Why are we here? Is that what
you're asking, Jack?... Why are we
here? No why. Just here.
Nicola dies peacefully.
INT. SCREENING ROOM - STUDIO - DAY
VIKTOR sits with leading man HAL, THREE EXECUTIVES and studio
head ELAINE CHRISTIAN, watching a rough assembly of the film.
It ends with a close up of NICOLA ANDERS.
The lights go up. The image of Nicola fades off the screen.
EXECUTIVE 1
She's good. You can hardly tell
she's reading off a teleprompter.
VIKTOR:
(ignoring him)
I've analyzed the footage. We've
got almost everything we need in
the can. If we rework the script,
we can finish the film without her.
EXECUTIVE 2
(forceful shake of the
head)
According to the writ her attorneys
filed at noon today. They'll sue
if the film is released with Nicola
in a single frame.
VIKTOR:
(more anxious)
So we'll re-cast.
HAL:
Nicola Anders is the only actress
who can play that role.
VIKTOR:
(incredulous)
It's a re-make, Hal. Anders is not
bigger than this picture.
ELAINE:
Of course she is. No other name is
going to sign on now and risk
offending her.
VIKTOR:
We don't need a name. We'll cast
an unknown.
HAL:
I won't play opposite an unknown.
ELAINE:
We can't sell an unknown. Nicola's
soured on the project and we have
to accept that. If we ever want to
be in the Nicola Anders business
again, we have to cut our losses
and shelve the picture.
The executives, leading man and director nod sagely.
VIKTOR:
(aghast)
No! You will not give in to that
blackmailing b*tch!
ELAINE:
(a wince, addressing
everyone but Viktor)
Excuse us.
Elaine ushers Viktor out of the screening room.
