Interview Page #5

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?

Always interested in acting?

God. Yah.

Pierre. Pierre.

If I were a politician, would you ask

me such uninteresting questions?

Am I that boring to you?

Why do you choose only the most

commercial crap that's out there?

Do you enjoy appearing in B movies?

And horror films?

Do you think you're

any good in them?

I like my movies.

You know I may not be a great

actress, but I will be one day.

And yes, I enjoy entertaining

millions upon millions of people.

How large is your readership?

You know I have dozens of readers.

And I doubt that any of them were

entertained by your performance in...

What was it?

'Life of the Party'

Now that was scary.

It was supposed

to be a comedy, right?

Why would you lie?

About what?

You said you'd never seen one of

my movies. Why would you lie?

I forgot that one.

I saw it on a flight.

Not very memorable.

I watched most of it

with the sound off.

And still I was wishing

the plane would go down.

I mean...

Do you wanna be taken

seriously as an actress?

Is that why you had

your breast reduced?

You miss my tits.

Is that is?

Well, don't you?

They weren't even

mine to begin with.

I made them bigger

for the Killer Body movies.

So you did it for your art.

I'm so sick of talking about this.

I can't even begin to tell you.

Did they pay you by the inch?

It's not different to me to putting

on a costume or wearing a wig.

Or fishnet stockings.

Really?

Do you like fishnet stockings, Pierre?

Wait. Let me rephrase.

Why do you think it is that men like

fishnet stockings so much?

They look good on women.

Fishnet stockings ...

... are a net.

And the woman is

imprisoned within this net.

Like a fish.

You get it?

Ah...Yeah.

And what about high heels?

Well.

High heels make

walking very difficult.

So you see nothing would be

more attractive to a man ...

Than a woman wearing fishnet stockings

and high heels, because...

She has trouble walking.

And she's imprisoned

within this net.

And therefore he thinks

she's easy prey.

I know everything.

Oh yeah?

What makes a man attractive?

Are you hungry?

What makes a man attractive?

If you'd rather have a sandwich,

I think I have some baloney.

That's been working for us so far.

Is Pierre your real name?

Or is that something you invented

to sound more international?

And why aren't you in

Washington already?

Because as far as I can tell

the sh*t's been brewing for days.

It's been on the news non-stop.

Why don't you answer my question?

What makes a man attractive?

A scar.

Why?

Because...

Most women have one, too.

And where...

You are beautiful.

You are repeating yourself.

Don't step on my boots.

So tell me...
