Mommie Dearest Page #5

who fought her way to the top,

made a great success.

Well, you're not a little shop girl anymore.

Now that's the truth, to face and deal with...

If you want to survive.

The truth is, you're getting old.

Yeah.

You're nothing but a rotten, crooked lawyer,

supplying the grease that makes

this shitty movie business work.

You think your life's a mystery.

There isn't a dirty cover-up in this entire business

that I don't know about,

and your hand is in every one of them!

You reek of it!

Damn you!

Are you crazy?

No person talks to me like that.

No one anywhere! Are you crazy? Are you?

Tell me!

Tell me!

I'm crazy.

I didn't mean that, Greg.

I didn't mean it.

Get up.

There's no camera in here.

Greg.

Where you going?

Where I belong--

out of here.

You belong here.

I'm waiting for you.

Good night, Joan.

Please don't leave, because if you do,

you'll never come back in again,

no matter what you say or ask or do.

I'll always...

Wish you well, Joan.

And I'll only speak well of you.

Please don't go.

Don't leave me here alone.

Please?

If you're acting, you're wasting your time.

If you're not, you're wasting mine.

I'm not acting.

I'm not acting.

Good night.

Good luck.

Good-bye.

[Door closes]

Good morning.

Good morning, dearest heart.

Hello, darling.

Ahh!

Hello, Christopher, my angel.

Look. How are you?

Did you sleep well?

Did you?

Mmm.

Run along downstairs.

Get your breakfast,

and don't be late for school.

I won't.

Look after Christopher.

Whoa, O.K.

If she doesn't like you...

She can make you disappear.

Ginny, are we running short?

Shall I send for more photographs?

Oh, no, Miss Crawford.

The studio just sent over a new batch.

We've got plenty.

Good. You're all so gracious to help,

and you're doing a wonderful job.

And you.

Let's see.

I'll roll it to you this way.

Go get it, Christopher.

Come on! Get it, Christopher.

Here I come! Get it!

Christina! Christopher!

Damn it!

Carol Ann!

I have asked you to keep the children quiet today!

Now, for Christ's sake, get them out of the garden!

I'm sorry, Joan.

Have Tina bring me up my coffee.

All right, Joan.

I'm sorry, mommie.

I tried to be quiet.

We were playing.

And you forgot.

You promised last night.

You promised.

Look, I told you

how important today is to mommie.

I explained why,

didn't I, Tina?

I'm sorry, mommie.

Go to your room until I come for you.

You're very, very bad to wake mommie up like that.

Very naughty.

I told you,

mommie has to be beautiful today.

This afternoon, she has to see Mr. Mayer.

Today is so important.

You are selfish and thoughtless.

You must learn to think about other people.
