CALLING

[grunting]

[panting]

-Mao-mao! -[Mao-mao] Yes.

-Mao-mao! Mao-mao! -[Mao-mao] Yes.

Why aren't you answering? I am running, it's so hard.

[gasps, screams] Mao-mao!

-[Mao-mao] Where's the phone? -[screaming]

[panting]

-Mao-mao! How does this stop? -Meizhenfeng. Hello?

[panting]

Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

Is it about Shih Ai-ma? Did she get it?

Uh, thank you. Bye-bye.

Who was it? The producer?

Prank call.

Then why did you speak so long?

You could have just-- [groans] Oh!

Oh, sorry.

Sorry. I'm so nervous. I'm so nervous.

[Mao-mao] We must have faith in Shih Ai-ma.

-We must have faith. -I have faith.

I have faith. Now, the toilet.

Today, cell phone or landline,

you'll make sure you answer.

Who calls landlines these days?

[phone ringing]

[gasps] What?

MEIZHENFENG

Hello?

Oh, no one calls on landlines these days.

You're doing a terrible job. [sighs]

I suppose I'll need to bring my own toilet paper as well.

[upbeat music playing]

[upbeat music playing]

[TB] Wang Ko-nan, what are you fucking avoiding?

Why did you skip the audition, huh?

[Ko-nan] Stop pressuring me.

[TB] Fine. Do what you want.

Now, the producer's pissed. I can't help you.

I'm sorry.

In England, we always said, when we got back to Taiwan,

I'd write it and direct it.

You'd be the actress and we'd both win awards.

What was all that? Just bullshit?

Not at all.

I appreciate everything you've done so far.

Then why run away from it now?

Since we've split up, that's all over.

-[Ko-nan] That's not it. I just-- -Then what is it you want?

I think I'll mess up.

What if I disappoint you? This is your first movie.

I don't care.

Why back down now? Huh?

I'll do it.

[TB] Say what?

You heard what I said.

No.

I'll do it.

Hmm?

We'll do it.

[Ai-ma crying]

Who did they pick?

That doesn't matter.

You're supposed to be my manager.

Ma'am, do you have an appointment? Excuse me.

-You need to make an appointment. -Okay. Thank you.

-Ma'am, I told you, she can't see anyone. -Hi. I know.

-I just wanna talk. -No, she can't.

-Oh, please. Don't do this. -That's enough. It's okay, really, please.

-I told you she's busy, okay? -I just wanna talk to her.

-Please stop. -Hsueh Ya-chih! Where is she?

[Ya-chih] I'm here.

[Ms. Chubby] Hsueh Ya-chih, if you're passing on Shih Ai-ma

because you hate me, then you're blind.

You saw her audition that day.

You said to the director, "We found our lead."

-I whispered that to the director. -Sit down, ma'am.

-How did you hear it? -I can do a lot of things.

-I can even read lips. -[groans]

Come on, tell me why you won't cast Shih Ai-ma?

Is it because I didn't give you any cash or-- are you all right?

-Do you need help? What's going on? -Amy.

-What? -I need your help with this.

-[Amy] Huh? Ma'am. I don't know how to. -Is this how it's gonna play?

It's okay. Continue.

Don't mind me.

Do you think this is gonna make me soften?

If you don't give me a reason right now, I'll--

-I can't do it. -What? [groans]

What the-- okay. Get out of the way.

I'll do it. Give me that.

-Tell me where? -[Ya-chih] Here.

-[Ms. Chubby] Here we go. -[groaning]

Should I pull it out now?

Pull it out.

Thanks.

That's okay.

Amy, you can go.

Ms. Pom-chen, Shih Ai-ma is great

and I am certain we will work with her in the future.

Don't say it. I've heard it a lot.

You think I'm a newcomer to this game.

It's like when a couple breaks up, one says, it's not you,

you're too good for me.

All that fucking shit.

Hey, I… I feel a bit dizzy.

[Ya-chih] Do you remember when I first started out?

You were kinder and cuter then.

[Ya-chih] I met Li Tzu-chi on my first film. Infinite Farewell.

You were trying to get me the part of the sister

but it went to Wang Yi-ling.

So you're settling old scores, hmm?

That wasn't my fault.

Her dad was the financial investor, I couldn't…

There's always more to it.

[Mr. Wang] The story is spectacular.

The movie will surely be a success.

Have you started casting?

Uh, yes, we're looking now.

Make sure you get big actors.

More famous the better.

As for funding, leave it to me, okay?

-[Tzu-chi] Thank you, Mr. Wang. -Cheers.

-[Mr. Wang] Ah. My beautiful daughter. -[Ya-chih] Hello.

[Mr. Wang] Little Pumpkin is here.

-Allow me to introduce you. -Mm-hmm.

This is Director Li Tzu-chi and Producer Hsueh Ya-chih.

[Ko-nan] I've met Ms. Ya-chih before.

Oh. And I hear that your company will begin shooting a new film soon

with director T--

-TB. -TB. TB.

Yeah, she's just returned from studying in New York.

She's an emerging talent.

And will you consider my Little Pumpkin for the lead?

Oh, yeah, absolutely.

Apologies, Ms. Ya-chih, during the audition, I--

-That's completely fine. -[Mr. Wang] Audition?

Does my Little Pumpkin still need to audition, huh? [laughs]

Now, I'm looking forward to working with you, Director Li,

and having a great film,

especially now that the future of my Little Pumpkin is in your hands.

-Excellent. -Cheers.

[Tzu-chi] To you, Mr. Wang.

[Ms. Chubby] Didn't I tell you to add more chili?

[Mao-mao] I did.

Are you listening to me or not?

[Mao-mao] She's been sitting there all day.

[Ms. Chubby] Just ignore her.

She needs to learn how this industry works.

[dramatic music playing]

-Can I ask you something? -Hmm?

Do you think I've changed?

How so?

I used to be…

Was I cuter and kinder?

This is a trap. I'm not falling for it.

Just tell me the truth.

[elevator bell dings]

[head thuds]

[Mao-mao] Ai-ma, your bag.

Don't be down.

Wang Ko-nan will make it because of her dad.

You used skill.

Ai-ma, you go.

[Ai-ma] Why are you so cruel to me?

[Ko-nan] Because you've been lying to yourself

and to others your entire life.

Because I'm the only one in the world who can be honest with you.

Because no one else in this world has told you the truth.

[sighs]

I'm bad, aren't I?

I can't even memorize the lines, let alone act.

Just keep running them until they stick.

[Ko-nan] What's up with you? Why are you so serious?

I'm trying to help.

Can you believe the acting class made me a schedule?

Is it because they think my acting is not good enough?

[sighs] I'm so fucking stressed.

I think being the lead

and getting free acting classes sounds pretty cool.

If you don't wanna run lines, I'll go.

[Ko-nan] Shih Ai-ma…

could you please get me something from the dresser before you go?

Please?

It's the black bag in the second drawer.

Got it?

Found it?

That's it. You're so clever.

See which color you like.

You don't need to give me stuff.

[Ko-nan] Hey, I bought this for you.

Here, take it. Take it.

Try it on. Come on.

Don't just stand there.

Hey, it suits you. You see?

You look so sexy.

What if we wore these in the film?

The film?

Yeah. I told TB you should play my best friend and she's already agreed.

You got me a part?

My gift, Ai-ma.

That's what friends are for. Mm-hmm.

Hey.

Why are you in the dark?

You're home early.

I thought you were at Pumpkin's till midnight?

What are you doing?

Why are you cutting up your clothes?

[Ai-ma] I didn't earn them.

You're still upset you didn't pass the audition.

I passed.

I just don't have a rich dad.

Okay. Fine. You passed.

You don't know? That's Chou Fan.

She's been in heaps of movies.

She's that crazy guest on the 17th floor.

Uh, yeah.

[man] Hey, I gotta take a dump.

Cover for me.

You always take forever, though.

I'll be really quick. Just cover for me.

[Chou Fan giggles]

Hey, did you say something?

No.

[sniffles]

[footsteps approaching]

[dramatic music playing]

My whole life,

I failed those that I love.

What about you?

Huh?

You scared me to death.

I locked myself out again.

Can you please help?

What the hell?

[clanging]

What are you doing?

Is this your apology?

Happy birthday.

It's gonna take more than breakfast.

I eat breakfast daily.

Birthdays come once a year.

I've known for a long time

that we can't spend special occasions together.

Like Valentine's Day or Christmas or New Year.

And those I'm okay with.

But this was different. It was my birthday.

I'm sorry.

What if I bought you a new car?

I don't want that.

So what do you want?

Just say it.

-So we're going out today? -Mm-hmm.

-Really? -Mm-hmm.

[neighbor 1] Hey, you're dressed up so nicely.

You going on a date?

[neighbor 2] She doesn't have a boyfriend.

-[neighbor 1] I see. Okay. -That's right.

I don't have a boyfriend.

-[Po-lei] What? -It's enough.

This is enough. Let's go back.

[Po-lei] Nini.

Just this once.

Let's catch a movie, okay?

We'll go to a movie together.

Just a movie.

Doesn't matter if it's any good.

Let's do it.

We'll go home and watch one.

We can do this.

You've already given me my present.

Thanks.

[soft music playing]

[Gecko] Yes…

-Gecko. -[Gecko] Shouldn't be too much longer now.

Yes, okay. Thank you. Bye-bye.

[Yen-fang] I'm done.

Yes. This one.

Perfect. Beauty and intellect.

But it looks old-fashioned.

Or should I go with this one?

[Gecko] Hmm.

-You've tried both of those before. -Which one of these two do you think?

[Gecko] Yes, this is good too.

Demure is also an option. Yes.

I need you to be honest.

What about yesterday's?

Well, um, yesterday,

I thought we had agreed you didn't like anything from yesterday,

and we've tried 20 different outfits on in the last couple of days.

And you're beautiful in all of them.

Oh, God. What's the matter?

-Is it a headache? What is it? -No.

I must rewrite my speech.

It's just not right.

I wanna rewrite it.

It's not written well at all.

[Gecko] Perhaps we should decide on a gown first.

Let's finalize your clothes before you start thinking about the--

-Wait. -What have you lost?

-Where did it go? -Tell me what you're looking for.

For heaven's sakes,

-tell me what you've lost. -My glasses. They're missing.

I can't read a thing without them.

Just calm down. No. No, no, no, no.

-I brought them with me. -No need to panic. Please sit down.

Just sit down here and we'll sort things out.

-How? -Relax. Okay.

Now look at me.

[sighs]

I can see now.

Come on.

What's wrong?

I've never seen you so anxious.

Gecko, do I look old to you?

Hmm.

That's it. I'm not going.

Hey, what are you talking about?

It's the screening of a 40-year-old classic

and the organizers have already booked your hotel,

not to mention the rail tickets.

It's the movie where you first became a star.

You told me that Director Pai stuck his neck out for you,

despite the objections of all the others.

Director Pai said, "If the female lead isn't you, Yen-fang,

I'm quitting."

Wow. He had guts.

So Director Pai is going, you're going too.

And Mr. Jen, the male lead, has flown in all the way from Canada.

This was a first for you both.

Yes.

My first time was with him.

What?

I think that's too much information.

What are you talking about?

As soon as he saw me, I knew he wanted me.

Not long after that, we were a couple.

It was a special love.

After the shoot wrapped, it was over.

He started being cold towards me.

Of course I couldn't stand that.

So I broke it off with him.

So he's coming.

I suppose we all meet scumbags.

Mm-hmm.

Stand up.

-What for? -Didn't you hear what I said? Stand up.

Okay.

You can't wear this.

-What? You said I looked intellectual. -No. No, no, no, no, no, no.

Intellectual is wrong.

What we need is sexy.

Jerry, Anita, Mr. Chu-sheng, on the double.

We're heading off.

Bye, sir.

-Bye. -See you.

I knew I couldn't handle it.

I think the acting teacher is going to try to get me replaced.

[scoffs] Go ahead and replace me then.

I don't care. I'm just so stressed.

And if I mess this up, the whole world will see.

[teacher] Wang Ko-nan.

Ms. Pumpkin.

Huh.

See that expression right now, that's perfect.

Why couldn't you do it in class earlier?

You need to relax a bit.

You're capable of so much more.

I heard you had an amazing audition.

I need to see that in class.

I believe in you.

But I didn't do the audition.

What the hell?

I don't care anymore.

I'm gonna quit this film if they don't sack me first!

STAFF ONLY

[screams]

You're a terrible actor.

[Rogue exhales] Fuck.

What makes you think I was acting?

I'm hungry. Maybe I'll get some stew.

They're closed on Mondays.

Huh? I'm hungry.

What's that look for?

[Chou Fan] Mm! Where'd you learn to cook?

My mom taught us.

Eating this late is bad for your stomach.

You sound just like my mother.

You'll understand when you're old enough.

Exactly like her!

Also, don't say that word around girls.

-Old? -Fuck.

You're not old.

-How old are you? -Twenty-five.

[chokes]

You're so over the top.

I don't understand how you were nominated for those awards.

I always slept with the judge.

But you didn't win.

Did you get the right judge?

He turned on me because I broke his heart.

-You must have had a lot of boyfriends. -I don't do relationships.

I don't believe you.

All of those handsome men, all of your co-stars?

You had so much chemistry on screen.

The sex scenes.

You're saying none of them became anything more?

[rock music playing]

-[music stops] -No.

We're professionals.

I don't know.

I think that stuff is human nature.

You've seen soap operas.

All right.

When the romantic leads finally see each other,

they stare into each other's eyes

and slowly move closer.

They approach… gradually.

They come closer and closer.

Until…

the female lead tilts her head

as their lips… touch.

It's bullshit.

Also on set is the gaffer,

the sound recordist, and hair and makeup.

The camera crew are circling around the actors on a track.

It gives the audience a feeling of dizziness.

Tell me, who in the world has ever felt dizzy from kissing someone?

It's bullshit.

-Kissing-- -Hey.

Are you all right?

I'm good.

The floor is still wet from being mopped.

[chair clanks]

You okay?

Uh-hmm.

-[Gecko] Thank you very much. -Thank you.

-Thank you. This way. -Come in, Ms. Yen-fang.

Thank you.

[Mr. Jen] Hsiao-fang.

Hey.

Hello, sir.

I'm Ms. Yen-fang's manager, Gecko. Hi.

-Hello. -[Gecko] Hello.

-I'll look after this. -Uh-hmm.

Been a while, Hsiao-fang.

Mm-hmm. It has.

You haven't changed.

[chuckles softly]

[clears throat]

Thank you.

How's your family?

Mm-hmm.

Uh, would you and your husband think of migrating?

[Gecko] Ah, Mr. Jen…

[chuckles] Ms. Yen-fang's husband passed away.

You're quite old-fashioned, I think.

-Oh. -Hmm.

Uh, I didn't know. I'm sorry.

It's okay.

[knocking on door]

-Would you both like to come through? -[Yen-fang] Oh, okay.

I've got a few questions about the program.

[Meng-meng] Okay. This way, please.

[soft music playing]

Is Director Pai here?

Ms. Yen-fang, Director Pai can't come today.

Why not?

This morning, Director Pai fell in his bathroom.

He's in the hospital now.

-Is he okay? -I'm not sure yet. I need to check.

Give me your phone. I wanna call the hospital.

-There is no time for that now. -I must call him now.

-It's you out there now. -I'm so sorry. It's time to start.

Let's get the film started first and then we'll talk about it.

Good luck. I'll try and find out what's happening.

Oh.

Oh, dear.

[announcer] Today we'll be screening that 40-year-old classic, Lonely Hearts.

I'm sure you're all as excited as I am.

-So let's cut to the chase. -We'll be fine.

-[announcer] I'd like to welcome… -Pai will be fine.

the two wonderful leads. It's been such a long time,

the very beautiful award-winning actress Yu Yen-fang

and the golden aged leading man Jen Ko-chien.

-Give them a round of applause. -[applause]

[announcer] Ms. Yen-fang, Mr. Jen, this way please.

LONELY HEARTS 40TH ANNIVERSARY CLASSIC RESCREENING

Come join me. Ms. Yen-fang, stand here.

Whoo.

Pew. [giggles]

Ya. Pew, pew. [giggles]

Wang Ko-nan, take this seriously.

Oh, but I've never hit anyone. I don't know how.

You don't really hit her, idiot.

She says her line, you raise your arm, and give her a sign.

-Okay? What's the line? -Do you have proof?

-[crew member] That's it. -Yeah, right.

Say the line. Come on.

-Say it. -Do you have proof?

Then when we shoot it behind you both, cut it, looks real. Okay? Good.

Practice it. Then we'll shoot it.

Okay!

Makeup checks, then we'll go into a take.

-Pew. -Thank you.

[giggles] Can I have my phone?

[crew member] I'm sorry. Uh, let me check your sound.

Okay. Thank you.

[Ai-ma] …TV star but she hates to be called that.

My cousin won Best Newcomer at the Taipei Film Festival and we--

I'm the black sheep of the family. Oh, yeah.

"Wang Ko-nan, straighten your back. Display the aura of an actress."

Okay! We're ready! Roll down.

Speed.

[dramatic music playing]

[Ko-nan] Did you upload the video?

I didn't.

How could I have?

You've been trying to replace me.

What do you mean?

I'm your best friend.

I thought that we were friends.

But did you ever care about me?

Say something.

I'll ask you one more time.

Did you upload the video?

Ah!

She hit her for real.

Wait.

Ah!

Wait. Keep shooting.

Do you have proof?

Just stop lying!

You said so many things that day,

aren't you disgusted with yourself?

I thought you were my friend!

Why do you keep lying to me?

You lied to my face. [sobbing]

Why the hell are you doing this to me?

[sobbing]

Why?

Why? [sobbing]

Cut! Wang Ko-nan!

It went well today, don't you think?

Mm-hmm. It went well.

Hmm.

Oh, uh, and I'm right next door.

Oh.

For so long,

Uh, good night.

Oh, you're…

TB, you've got a visitor.

Uh, is your face okay?

Do you want me to get some ice?

No.

-Hey, uh-- -Mom, thanks, you can leave us alone.

-But she's-- -No, it's okay. It's okay.

Uh, okay.

Do you wanna come in?

Director, I'm the better choice for the daughter.

Will you reconsider?

I love your script and I want this role more than anything I've ever wanted.

I promise you this.

I won't waste this opportunity.

You do know that the daughter is into women, don't you?

I'm not sure you should…

accept the part if you…

[soft music playing]

I can be anything you like.

I like her.

That girl has guts.

I think she'd be a much better choice than Ms. Pumpkin.

You want a beer?

[cell phone ringing]

Hello? Who is this?

[Yen-fang] What was it you wanted to say when I cut you off?

Hsiao-fang?

[Yen-fang] Earlier by the door, what did you wanna say?

I never thought that I'd see you again after so long.

Listen…

I've thought of you all these years.

-[sighs] -[doorbell dings]

Here.

Um, I usually sleep on the right side.

What about you?

Well, I sleep on that side too.

Oh.

What should we do?

Do you want me to go back?

You've always been so much braver than me.

[Ya-chih] She's half an hour late. Should we call it?

Right then. Let's get started.

But who's gonna read Pumpkin's lines?

Ai-ma, you read for Pumpkin.

Chen-chen, read Ai-ma's lines. You wanna look through the lines first?

It's okay. I know them already.

Wow.

Is that so?

I'm impressed.

[Big Head] Okay. I'll read the action then.

It's been a while since I did this.

[Li-fen] Let's get into it.

[Big Head] Okay. Let's begin. "The Girlhood, scene one."

"A private senior high school on a hot sunny day at the school gate,

students are stepping out of luxury cars."

Congratulations.

Don't you wanna know what for?

Did I get the role?

[Ya-chih] We're all in agreement. You've got the role.

Oh, sorry. [laughs]

Oh, please. Don't worry.

You deserve this moment.

Ms. Pang Chieh, can I go tell her?

This is what we need to talk about.

Once we have this sorted out,

the role will be yours.

You'll be the lead in The Girlhood.
