The Love Witch Page #3

Synopsis: Elaine, a beautiful young witch, is determined to find a man to love her. In her gothic Victorian apartment she makes spells and potions, and then picks up men and seduces them. However her spells work too well, and she ends up with a string of hapless victims. When she finally meets the man of her dreams, her desperation to be loved will drive her to the brink of insanity and murder. With a visual style that pays tribute to Technicolor thrillers of the 1970s, THE LOVE WITCH explores female fantasy and the repercussions of pathological narcissism.

- Would you mind if I made

myself more comfortable?

- Not at all.

- What the hell?

Your coat.

It's so bright.

- I always line my clothing.

- You have two selves.

Dark and quiet that

you show the world.

Who do you give that to?

The rainbow?

- I give the rainbow to you.

Right now.

- Oh.

- Oh.

- Huh!

Oh god.

Oh, Elaine.

Look at you.

- You can make love to me now.

- Aw, okay.

- What is it, Wayne?

What is it, baby?

- Oh, Elaine, I feel so strange.

- It's all right,

you're with me, shhh.

- Elaine.

No woman has ever given

herself like that to me before.

- Life has been tough, huh?

- Yeah, in a way.

You're not like any

other woman I've met.

No games, no agendas.

You just seem to

take life as it is.

- Is there any other

way to take life?

- Well, the women

I've been with,

they all want you to make

a bunch of promises to 'em

as soon as you sleep with 'em.

But, how can you commit to someone

that you don't even know?

It's crazy.

- I know, baby.

I know.

- I never thought I wanted

to be tied down to anybody.

But it's just 'cause no

one was ever quite right.

All the women that I'm

attracted to physically

they're never bright enough.

And all the bright ones are

homely and don't arouse me.

- That seems like

quite a problem.

- It is.

I feel my whole life as a loner,

thinkin' I didn't need anybody.

But now I'm not so sure.

Oh, Elaine,

I have never felt real

love like this before.

- You're just having a

lot of emotions right now.

- Oh.

Elaine, I'm scared.

I'm not used to feeling

things so strongly.

I can't take it,

I can't take it.

Oh.

Elaine, I'm sick.

I'm sick.

- Hey, it's all right.

I've got you.

I love you.

And I'll always be here for you.

Try to get some sleep.

- Elaine.

Elaine, where are you?

Elaine, where are you?

- What a p*ssy.

What a baby.

I thought I'd found a real man,

but he's just like

a little girl.

- Elaine!

- No one was ever there for me

when I was crying my heart out.

No one ever comforted me.

No one.

- Good morning, Wayne.

- Hi, Elaine.

- Here, drink this.

- I had such horrible

dreams last night.

- What did you

dream about, baby.

- I dreamt that I

was calling your name

and you didn't answer.

I kept calling and calling,

but I couldn't find you.

Oh, Elaine, you

love me, don't you?

- Of course, I love you.

- Oh god, oh god, Elaine.

- Are you hungry?

- I don't know what I am.

- Well, try to get some sleep.

- Elaine.

Don't leave me.

- I'm not going anywhere, baby.

I'll be right here.

Wayne, wake up.

It's late.

Wayne.

Wayne, baby, wake up.

Wake up.

Wayne.

Tampons aren't gross.

Women bleed and that's

a beautiful thing.
