00:24:30,368 --> 00:24:31,736
Anything else?
369
00:24:31,836 --> 00:24:33,704
Yeah, a couple of questions.
370
00:24:33,804 --> 00:24:35,840
Sergeant Joe Blatz,
LAPD, homicide division.
371
00:24:35,940 --> 00:24:39,777
This is my partner,
Tony Cassano.
372
00:24:39,877 --> 00:24:40,878
This look familiar to you?
373
00:24:40,978 --> 00:24:41,812
No.
374
00:24:41,912 --> 00:24:43,148
Take a closer look.
375
00:24:43,248 --> 00:24:44,249
It's a scene from a movie.
376
00:24:44,349 --> 00:24:45,583
And you're the star, baby.
377
00:24:50,155 --> 00:24:52,057
Yeah.
378
00:24:52,157 --> 00:24:54,425
This must have been written
by that creepy little jerk who
379
00:24:54,525 --> 00:24:55,426
Was in here the other night.
380
00:24:55,526 --> 00:24:57,062
Can you tell us
what he looked like?
381
00:24:57,162 --> 00:24:58,963
Weird.
382
00:24:59,064 --> 00:25:02,267
Black coat, black gloves.
383
00:25:02,367 --> 00:25:06,571
Sets his typewriter
down on my counter,
384
00:25:06,671 --> 00:25:12,310
Starts staring at me with
those eyes, and starts typing.
385
00:25:12,410 --> 00:25:13,744
Any distinguishing features?
386
00:25:13,844 --> 00:25:15,946
A scar, a tattoo,
anything like that?
387
00:25:16,047 --> 00:25:18,183
No.
388
00:25:18,283 --> 00:25:21,752
Just those freaky little
eyes, staring at me.
389
00:25:24,855 --> 00:25:31,862
All day, all right, all I deal
with is creeps and crazies.
390
00:25:31,962 --> 00:25:37,468
Creeps, crazies, and killers.
391
00:25:40,938 --> 00:25:42,540

[Humming]
395
00:26:08,366 --> 00:26:12,069
Her spoiled dog reclines
on the living room sofa.
396
00:26:15,373 --> 00:26:21,246
On the balcony, a gloved
hand crushes the porch light.
397
00:26:21,346 --> 00:26:22,713
[Shattering]
398
00:26:28,753 --> 00:26:32,089
[Humming]
399

[Door creaks]
403

[Screaming continues]
406
00:27:24,209 --> 00:27:25,243
I swear to God, Harriet.
407
00:27:25,343 --> 00:27:27,512
I'm on my way out the
door right this minute.
408
00:27:27,612 --> 00:27:29,280
Of course I don't
need an appointment.
409
00:27:29,380 --> 00:27:31,549
He's my brother,
for Christ's sake.
410
00:27:31,649 --> 00:27:32,717
What are you, crazy?
411
00:27:32,817 --> 00:27:34,485
Of course I'll be civil to him.
412
00:27:34,585 --> 00:27:38,256
Now quit acting like a
jerk and come back to me.
413
00:27:38,356 --> 00:27:40,191
What do you mean you're
calling me from New York?
414
00:27:40,291 --> 00:27:42,293
Harriet, I forbid
you to hang up on me.
415
00:27:42,393 --> 00:27:43,861
Now you listen to me...
416
00:27:43,961 --> 00:27:45,129
[Call waiting buzz]
417
00:27:45,230 --> 00:27:47,097
Harriet, can you hold?
418
00:27:47,198 --> 00:27:48,533
Harriet?
419
00:27:48,633 --> 00:27:50,268
Dammit.
420
00:27:50,368 --> 00:27:51,769
Weiner Agency.
421
00:27:51,869 --> 00:27:53,438
Yeah, this is him.
422
00:27:53,538 --> 00:27:54,305
Who?
423
00:27:54,405 --> 00:27:56,807
Oh, the kid from the pie shop.
424
00:27:56,907 --> 00:27:57,808
Listen, Edgar.
425
00:27:57,908 --> 00:27:59,944
You called me at
a very bad time.
426
00:28:00,044 --> 00:28:02,213
I just wanted you to be the
first to know, Mr. Weiner.
427
00:28:02,313 --> 00:28:04,615
I have started work
on my screenplay.
428
00:28:04,715 --> 00:28:07,452
I think it shows me to my
best advantage as a writer.
429
00:28:07,552 --> 00:28:09,220
It deals with the
traditional disparity
430
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:11,422
Between good and evil,
and it's set in a rundown
431
00:28:11,522 --> 00:28:13,958
Apartment complex in Hollywood.
432
00:28:14,058 --> 00:28:14,825
A young man...
433
00:28:14,925 --> 00:28:16,026
Listen, Edgar, I
haven't got time
434
00:28:16,126 --> 00:28:17,262
To hear your whole story now.
435
00:28:17,362 --> 00:28:19,430
I'm on my way to a
very important meeting.
436
00:28:19,530 --> 00:28:21,031
I understand, Mr. Weiner.
437
00:28:21,131 --> 00:28:23,100
I will keep you
posted on my progress.
438
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,836
Should you wish to contact
me, I'm at the Welcome
439
00:28:25,936 --> 00:28:27,938
Apartments in Hollywood.
440
00:28:28,038 --> 00:28:28,773
Yeah, yeah.
Fine.
441
00:28:28,873 --> 00:28:29,574
Bye.
442
00:28:59,970 --> 00:29:00,705
Yes?
443
00:29:00,805 --> 00:29:01,806
Can I help you?
444
00:29:01,906 --> 00:29:03,941
I've come to see Irving Weiner.
445
00:29:04,041 --> 00:29:05,209
Do you have an appointment?
446
00:29:05,310 --> 00:29:06,511
I don't need an appointment.
447
00:29:06,611 --> 00:29:07,845
I'm his brother Al.
448
00:29:07,945 --> 00:29:08,646
Albert.
449
00:29:08,746 --> 00:29:10,147
Albert Weiner.
450
00:29:10,247 --> 00:29:13,684
Mr. Weiner is in conference
and on a phone call to New York.
451
00:29:19,857 --> 00:29:22,259
We can fit you in late
Thursday afternoon.
452
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:26,764
Call about 4:30, and we
will tell you exactly when.
453
00:29:30,301 --> 00:29:32,603
[Stomach rumbling]
454
00:29:43,748 --> 00:29:45,182
I am a seagull.
455
00:29:45,282 --> 00:29:47,618
No, that's not it.
456
00:29:47,718 --> 00:29:50,287
I'm an actress.
457
00:29:50,388 --> 00:29:52,423
I am a seagull.
458
00:29:52,523 --> 00:29:53,924
No, that's not it.
459
00:29:54,024 --> 00:29:55,092
I'm an actress.
460
00:29:55,192 --> 00:29:56,226
Ugh.
461
00:29:56,327 --> 00:29:57,895
(DEEPER VOICE) I am a seagull.
462
00:29:57,995 --> 00:29:59,630
No, that's not it.
463
00:29:59,730 --> 00:30:01,332
I am an actress!
464
00:30:01,432 --> 00:30:03,067
[Clapping]
465
00:30:04,502 --> 00:30:06,337
That last time was very good.
466
00:30:06,437 --> 00:30:07,304
No it wasn't.
467
00:30:07,405 --> 00:30:08,105
Yes it was.
468
00:30:08,205 --> 00:30:09,674
You were really angry.
469
00:30:09,774 --> 00:30:12,577
You lost control for a
minute, and you had it.
470
00:30:12,677 --> 00:30:13,878
I did?
471
00:30:13,978 --> 00:30:15,312
You're right, I did!
472
00:30:15,413 --> 00:30:17,815
You felt hatred,
you felt anger,
473
00:30:17,915 --> 00:30:19,717
And that's what made it work.
474
00:30:19,817 --> 00:30:21,018
Well, you certainly
seem to know
475
00:30:21,118 --> 00:30:22,687
A lot about acting for a...?
476
00:30:22,787 --> 00:30:23,988
I'm a writer.
477
00:30:24,088 --> 00:30:25,155
I write murder movies.
478
00:30:25,255 --> 00:30:27,525
Ooh, murder movies
gross me out.
479
00:30:27,625 --> 00:30:28,893
They scare you.
480
00:30:28,993 --> 00:30:30,861
They force you to face
a part of yourself
481
00:30:30,961 --> 00:30:32,096
That you're unwilling
to acknowledge,
482
00:30:32,196 --> 00:30:34,632
And that's what holds
you back as an actress.
483
00:30:34,732 --> 00:30:35,633
Oh, no.
484
00:30:35,733 --> 00:30:37,201
Nina said my strength
as an actress
485
00:30:37,301 --> 00:30:38,836
Is in my innocent quality.
486
00:30:38,936 --> 00:30:41,906
You'll never be
a complete person.
487
00:30:42,006 --> 00:30:43,974
Well, what am I supposed to do?
488
00:30:44,074 --> 00:30:45,175
Break through your innocence.
489
00:30:45,275 --> 00:30:46,877
Let yourself go.
490
00:30:46,977 --> 00:30:49,847
Whenever you feel passion
of any kind... hatred,
491
00:30:49,947 --> 00:30:54,685
Jealousy, lust, even
the urge to kill,
492
00:30:54,785 --> 00:30:57,488
That's what I use in my
writing, latch onto it.
493
00:30:57,588 --> 00:31:00,024
Ride it like the
crest of a wave.
494
00:31:00,124 --> 00:31:03,894
Let the undertow pull
you down to you depths.
495
00:31:03,994 --> 00:31:06,764
At first, you'll be
terrified and disgusted
496
00:31:06,864 --> 00:31:08,232
With what you find.
497
00:31:08,332 --> 00:31:13,203
But when you face your despair,
your vulgarity, your depravity
498
00:31:13,303 --> 00:31:18,943
And learn to bring it
all to the surface,
499
00:31:19,043 --> 00:31:23,247
That's when you'll
be a great actress.
500
00:31:23,347 --> 00:31:25,249
[Honking]
501
00:31:39,229 --> 00:31:40,397
I told you to go back.
502
00:31:43,534 --> 00:31:49,139
Already, the flames of lust
are licking at your soul.
503
00:31:49,239 --> 00:31:54,278
The bitch goddess Harley has but
one lover... the demon, Success.
504
00:31:54,378 --> 00:31:56,180
Come up with me to my shrine.
505
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:57,548
Repent.
506
00:31:57,648 --> 00:32:00,017
The strength of God will
pull you away from that road
507
00:32:00,117 --> 00:32:01,986
Which surely leads to hell.
508
00:32:14,732 --> 00:32:15,833
Excuse me, Lot.
509
00:32:15,933 --> 00:32:17,568
I have to go to now.
510
00:32:17,668 --> 00:32:19,637
I need to sleep.
511
00:32:19,737 --> 00:32:22,172
Thanks for the service.
512
00:32:22,272 --> 00:32:24,008
[Gasps]
513
00:32:24,108 --> 00:32:25,543
[Screams]
514
00:32:25,643 --> 00:32:26,511
I see it!
515
00:32:26,611 --> 00:32:27,311
What?
516
00:32:27,411 --> 00:32:28,145
The end.
517
00:32:28,245 --> 00:32:30,748
It is closer than I thought.
518
00:32:45,095 --> 00:32:45,796
Cha-ca-boom.
519
00:32:49,834 --> 00:32:53,571
Give thanks to
the gods of ganja.
520
00:32:53,671 --> 00:32:54,404
Toke up, brother.
521
00:32:54,505 --> 00:32:55,540
There isn't much time.
522
00:33:00,044 --> 00:33:02,379
[Coughing]
523
00:33:12,222 --> 00:33:15,760
I perceive a vision of evil.
524
00:33:15,860 --> 00:33:19,196
Behold, the hands of a sinner.
525
00:33:38,883 --> 00:33:41,251
[Footsteps]
526
00:33:51,762 --> 00:33:54,599
[Screaming]
527
00:33:57,635 --> 00:34:00,470
[Choking and gasping]
528
00:34:02,439 --> 00:34:03,140
No!
529
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:04,775
Murder!
530
00:34:04,875 --> 00:34:07,111
Your hands are the
hands of a killer.
531
00:34:07,211 --> 00:34:09,246
Yes, to a degree, they are.
532
00:34:09,346 --> 00:34:13,984
But I'm not actually capable
of killing anyone, I think.
533
00:34:14,084 --> 00:34:15,552
Yes you are.
534
00:34:15,653 --> 00:34:20,057
Sins of the mind and sins
of the body are as one.
535
00:34:20,157 --> 00:34:25,495
Evil will consume you, and
you will commit murder.
536
00:34:25,596 --> 00:34:28,633
Lot, you're stoned.
537
00:34:28,733 --> 00:34:29,533
Ha!
538
00:34:29,634 --> 00:34:31,401
Your hands are tools of death.
539
00:34:31,501 --> 00:34:33,537
They must be purged.
540
00:34:33,638 --> 00:34:34,905
We'll start with this one.
541
00:34:35,005 --> 00:34:37,474
If thy right eye offended
thee, pluck it out.
542
00:34:37,574 --> 00:34:42,847
If thy right hand offended
thee, burn it off.
543
00:34:42,947 --> 00:34:44,815
Casting out, I cast you out!
544
00:34:44,915 --> 00:34:48,418
Out, Satan, leave
this sinner in peace!
545
00:34:48,518 --> 00:34:51,288
[Gasping]
546
00:34:53,523 --> 00:34:54,458
Yah!
547
00:34:54,558 --> 00:34:55,860
Thank you, Lord!
548
00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,128
One more sinner purged of evil.
549
00:35:04,835 --> 00:35:09,339

my success has brought me.

What's the matter,
don't you want the part?

I want it more than anything
I've ever wanted before.

You're not evil.
598
00:38:16,126 --> 00:38:20,397

I don't want you to think
I'm being pushy, Mr. Weiner,

know that my script is

and I'm getting

Of course he doesn't care.

And why should he?

00:39:46,917 --> 00:39:48,085
You're nothing to him.
627
00:39:48,185 --> 00:39:50,287
You got no name and
you got no gimmick.
628
00:39:50,387 --> 00:39:51,588
I don't need a gimmick.
629
00:39:51,688 --> 00:39:52,589
I've got talent.
630
00:39:52,689 --> 00:39:53,390
Talent?
631
00:39:53,490 --> 00:39:54,391
Heh.
632
00:39:54,491 --> 00:39:55,659
You'll beat your
brains out going
633
00:39:55,759 --> 00:39:58,062
From door to door with nothing
but your talent to sell.
634
00:39:58,162 --> 00:39:59,729
Before you know it,
years will have gone by,
635
00:39:59,829 --> 00:40:01,198
And you won't have sold a thing.
636
00:40:01,298 --> 00:40:03,133
You'll end up working
at some greasy hamburger

00:40:04,201 --> 00:40:05,069
I know, Edgar.
639
00:40:05,169 --> 00:40:07,037
I've seen it happen
too many times.
640
00:40:07,137 --> 00:40:09,206
Talent just isn't enough.
641
00:40:09,306 --> 00:40:11,008
But it doesn't have to
be that way for you,
642
00:40:11,108 --> 00:40:13,510
Not if you know the
right person... a person
643
00:40:13,610 --> 00:40:15,712
You can trust.
644
00:40:15,812 --> 00:40:18,115

you got to lose?

a damn good script.
647
00:40:27,524 --> 00:40:28,959

little work, but all
648

there... a little sex,

00:40:31,962 --> 00:40:33,597
I think we're on the
right track, Edgar.
651
00:40:33,697 --> 00:40:35,599
Here, give me those.
652
00:40:35,699 --> 00:40:37,834
What we need to
figure out now is
653
00:40:37,934 --> 00:40:39,669
Some way to hype it,
some way to give it
654
00:40:39,769 --> 00:40:42,572
That extra something special.
655
00:40:42,672 --> 00:40:44,674
Go with this for a minute.
656
00:40:44,774 --> 00:40:47,677
You, we center the
publicity around you.
657
00:40:47,777 --> 00:40:50,780
We sell you as the victim
of an unfeeling world.
658
00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:53,017
We make your past mysterious.
659
00:40:53,117 --> 00:40:55,819
We suggest that your
writing is autobiographical.
660
00:40:55,919 --> 00:40:57,387
Isn't that asking for trouble?
661
00:40:57,487 --> 00:40:59,223
That kind of trouble
makes for good publicity.
662
00:40:59,323 --> 00:41:02,192
And besides, they'll believe it.
663
00:41:02,292 --> 00:41:06,230
Look at yourself... those eyes,
that sickly-looking face,
664
00:41:06,330 --> 00:41:07,697
You look like a murderer.

nightmares about you.

We'll be millionaires, Edgar.

Well, I see what
you're going for,
668
00:41:14,204 --> 00:41:15,505
But I don't know
if I like the idea
669
00:41:15,605 --> 00:41:19,143
Of the world relating to me as
some kind of a sideshow freak.
670
00:41:19,243 --> 00:41:20,544
None of that matters, Edgar.
671
00:41:20,644 --> 00:41:22,979

to sell the product.

[Hammer clatters on floor]
1451
01:25:04,498 --> 01:25:07,034
I didn't wanna hurt Holly.
1452
01:25:07,134 --> 01:25:09,236
You made me.
1453
01:25:09,336 --> 01:25:16,744
You turned her into
an animal, with this!
1454
01:25:20,247 --> 01:25:22,549
I'm gonna kill you!
1455
01:25:25,720 --> 01:25:27,421
Freeze!
1456

[Gunshots]
1457
01:25:47,608 --> 01:25:48,475
Look, Edgar.
1458
01:25:48,575 --> 01:25:50,377
It was me.
1459
01:25:50,477 --> 01:25:53,948
I wanted it to be a surprised.
1460
01:25:54,048 --> 01:25:57,584
I wanted to show you what
a great actress I could be.
1461
01:25:57,685 --> 01:26:00,287
And I am a great
actress, aren't I?
1462
01:26:00,387 --> 01:26:01,989
Tell me.
1463
01:26:02,089 --> 01:26:03,424
Yes, Holly.
1464
01:26:03,524 --> 01:26:05,259
You are great.
1465
01:26:05,359 --> 01:26:09,697
And I'll be great in
Nicky's movie, won't I?
1466
01:26:09,797 --> 01:26:11,265
Yes, Holly.
1467
01:26:11,365 --> 01:26:12,767
Yes.
1468
01:26:12,867 --> 01:26:13,735
Kiss me, Edgar.
1469
01:26:19,040 --> 01:26:21,542
You're a great screenwriter.
1470
01:26:21,642 --> 01:26:24,211
Preparing for this
role was so difficult,
1471
01:26:24,311 --> 01:26:26,647
But acting in your
movie taught me so much.
1472
01:26:26,748 --> 01:26:27,749
You were right.
1473
01:26:27,849 --> 01:26:29,250
I was limited.
1474
01:26:29,350 --> 01:26:31,652
But now I'm ready
to play anything.
1475
01:26:31,753 --> 01:26:33,520
I can play any role.
1476
01:26:33,620 --> 01:26:36,858
It was hard work, but we did it.
1477
01:26:36,958 --> 01:26:39,093
We sunk to the depths together.
1478
01:26:45,199 --> 01:26:48,102

1480
01:27:08,289 --> 01:27:09,123
Let's go, kid.
1481
01:27:09,223 --> 01:27:10,591
Can't keep the
big shots waitin'.
1482
01:27:13,227 --> 01:27:16,230
You got the script?
1483
01:27:16,330 --> 01:27:19,266
I said make it bloody,
but this is ridiculous.
1484
01:27:19,366 --> 01:27:21,402
No.
1485
01:27:21,502 --> 01:27:22,669
Hey, hey, hey!
1486
01:27:29,310 --> 01:27:30,244
Edgar, hop in.
1487
01:27:30,344 --> 01:27:31,578
The meeting, we'll be late.
1488
01:27:31,678 --> 01:27:33,280
- I'm not going to the meeting.
- You're not?
1489
01:27:33,380 --> 01:27:34,081
Where ya goin'?
1490
01:27:34,181 --> 01:27:35,282
To the bus terminal.
1491
01:27:35,382 --> 01:27:36,417
I'm going home.
1492
01:27:36,517 --> 01:27:37,618
You know what you're doing?
1493
01:27:37,718 --> 01:27:39,286
You're bein' self-destructive.
1494
01:27:39,386 --> 01:27:41,622
You're leaving just when things
are starting to break for ya.
1495
01:27:41,722 --> 01:27:42,824
Now get in the car.
1496
01:27:42,924 --> 01:27:44,792
You'll sell this script,
you'll write another one,
1497
01:27:44,892 --> 01:27:47,128
Maybe even get to direct it.
1498
01:27:47,228 --> 01:27:48,662
Edgar, you got a future.
1499
01:27:48,762 --> 01:27:50,998
Don't walk out on it.
1500
01:27:51,098 --> 01:27:52,633
I've heard it all before.
1501
01:28:02,944 --> 01:28:04,578
Look, this time, it's real.
1502
01:28:04,678 --> 01:28:07,048
We're gonna meet a big
executive at Allied Pictures.
1503
01:28:07,148 --> 01:28:09,750
Edgar, the man is my brother.
1504
01:28:09,851 --> 01:28:10,985
He wants to do me a favor.
1505
01:28:11,085 --> 01:28:12,286
He owes me one.
1506
01:28:12,386 --> 01:28:13,787
The picture's as good as sold.
1507
01:28:13,888 --> 01:28:16,590
100 grand!
1508
01:28:16,690 --> 01:28:22,396
A hundred thousand dollars?
1509
01:28:22,496 --> 01:28:23,330
Well, $90,000.
1510
01:28:23,430 --> 01:28:24,598
I take my 10%.
1511
01:28:24,698 --> 01:28:26,901
You'll never get another
chance like this.
1512
01:28:27,001 --> 01:28:28,635
Ya gotta believe me.
1513
01:28:28,735 --> 01:28:30,537
Now please, Edgar.
1514
01:28:30,637 --> 01:28:31,338
Please.
1515
01:28:31,438 --> 01:28:32,239
Get in the car.
1516
01:28:44,451 --> 01:28:45,686
Let's go.
1517
01:28:45,786 --> 01:28:47,889
Jesus, what happened to you?
1518
01:28:47,989 --> 01:28:50,124
Somebody tried to kill me.
1519
01:28:50,224 --> 01:28:54,929
Now who would want to kill
a talented kid like you?
1520
01:28:55,029 --> 01:28:57,031
Holly would.
