I Feel Pretty Page #3

Synopsis: Renee Bennett (Schumer) knows what it's like to be average in a world of the genetically blessed. After falling off an exercise bike and banging her head, she believes a spell has suddenly made her gorgeous. Except to everyone else, she looks exactly the same. Renee's new confidence suddenly sees her climbing the ranks at the cosmetics company she works for, getting the respect of her idol and boss, Avery LeClaire (Williams). Ultimately Renee realizes 'the spell' has lifted, but through the process learns true beauty is not skin deep.

- Yeah.

- There she is again. Oh!

(WHISPERS) Oh, my God.

She's right there.

Is that so cool?

What's that?

You know,

being the receptionist here?

Just being around it all?

No, I'm just

an intern filling in.

They're trying to find

a new receptionist, actually.

Shut up.

Oh, come on.

It's like a dream job.

Um, I'll make sure

Marketing gets these papers.

Okay.

I'm gonna head out.

AVERY:
Can we all say hello

to my grandmother, Lily,

who will be joining us today?

- Hello, Lily.

- (APPLAUSE)

We are in our third quarter

of our fiscal year,

and as you are all aware

the research results

have come in

on our diffusion line.

Do you have to say

"diffusion" like that?

- Like what?

- Like it means "low end"?

It does mean "low end."

It also means "accessible."

Or "thoughtfully priced."

Say it like that.

Okay.

It seems that

we have some work to do

on our diffusion line

because we are new

to the diffusion landscape.

We need to get people

used to seeing

our products not just

at Saks and Bendel's,

but also at Target and Kohl's.

Jenn, go.

Well, it says here that 74%

of core diffusion

demo respondents

strongly believe that we are

elitist pricks.

Okay, so what I am hearing

is that

we need to pivot in order...

This is not

rocket science, Avery.

We're just trying to start

a line of accessible cosmetics

at Target.

Who here has gone

makeup shopping at Target?

- You?

- No!

- Either of you?

- Mmm.

No.

Unbelievable.

People think

that we are elitists

who do not belong at Target,

and they may be right.

But when people

walk into this office,

I want them to see

that Lily LeClaire

includes everyone.

Even bargain shoppers.

"Must be passionate

about beauty..."

Me.

"...and dream

of sitting in our lobby..."

Me.

"...at the center of it all.

(CHUCKLES)

"Must be stylish

and full of confidence."

I mean...

Maybe not full of confidence.

"The first face people see

when they come to our office,

"in some ways, the real face

of our beauty line."

(SIGHS) Whatever.

Yes, it is the perfect job,

of course I know that.

I'm just...

I don't even see

a point in applying.

I have no shot.

Yeah.

I'm not exactly

the face they're looking for.

Oh. Hey, Jane,

can I call you back?

Hi.

Um, Renee. We kind of met

at SoulCycle...

- Oh, my God.

- Yeah, yeah.

How's your vagina?

- Oh.

- Like, the whole region?

(CHUCKLES) Thanks for asking.

The region is kind of

as good as can be expected.

Was there blood?

There was not not-blood.

Hey, hi.

Wow.

- Hi.

- I'm sorry,

I'm so lost.

Could you tell me where to

find that squeezy dish soap?

- Uh...

- Now, you're probably

wondering why I'm not
