Are you crying?

Uh huh...

Yeah

Are you sorry about last night?

Are you?

Why are you crying?

I'm sorry, Billy.

I'm so sorry

what?

OH, sh*t.

Look in the other room.

What is that?

Freddy!

No, someone's there.

This stage is ours and ours alone.

Well, let's have a look.

Who was it?

Disappeared where it's

real hard to disappear.

Maybe we should talk,

maybe this is the time.

Let's be serious for a moment

about something other than this scene.

why?

- what is it?

Sit down, I'll tell you.

It was Freddy who

first heard about it

If you have an assistant who can hold his

liquor, then...

...Freddy can do that with the best of them.

Somebody's got to do it,

Gable's dead.

Now, Freddy is purposefully out and about

gathering what in this business...

...is the most valuable commodity...

...information.

Information is indispensable.

You probably know this from your own lives..

...we all have people who gather...

agents, friends, producers...

And sometimes they share,

...sometimes not.

Politics, ego,

...fear...

Kingsley?

sometimes I just isn't told the whole story.

Kingsley, get to the point.

"On High In Blue Tomorrows"

it is, in fact, a remake.

It's a remake?

I wouldn't do a remake.

No, no no, I know, of course,

But you didn't know

The original was a differrent name.

Started, but never finished.

Now, Freddy has found out

that our producers...

...Know the history of this film and have takenit upon

themselves not to pass on that information to us.

Purposefully

Not on me, and I assume not the two of you...

True?

No, absolutely

Nobody told me anything.

No. Me neither.

I thought this was

an original script.

Yeah, well...

Anyway, the film

it was never finished...

Something happened before

the film was finished.

I don'tot understand.

why wasn't it finished?

Well, after the characters

had been filming for some time,

...they discovered something... something...

inside the history.

Please, Kingsley.

The two leads,

were murdered.

It was based on a Polish-gypsy folk tale.

The title in German was

"Fier Sieben".

"Four Seven".

And it was said to be cursed.

...so it turned out to be.

What?

Did you understand what I said?

I don't understand.

Hmm, you don't speak Polish.

No.

Half of it...

I think she understands more

than she lets on...

But I don't speak it.

Take a seat.

What's this all about?

I've been hypnotized,

or something

Hypnotized?

And I'm...

I'm...

I'm going to kill someone.

Oh, yeah?

Who you going to kill?

I don't know.

Who hypnotized you?

The saw him looking at me once when I...

...when I looked

around the bar, and...

He done moved his hands...

...and he said that I...
