You're an interesting actor and
you're gonna be a star, kid.

But every time you come to me,
I wish I had a part for you.

But why did you get older?

Why did you get taller?

I didn't realize that you
would change from a kid

to a grown up so fast.

You're not right for
anything in this show,

but I called you in because
I just had to see you.

You're so good and
I think one day

we are definitely
gonna work together.

We're definitely

Good job, good job.

[indistinct]

You have to stretch your legs
and you move those hips, okay?

[indistinct]

Like this.

Yes, yes, girl.

Yes, like that, all right?

All right.

Good job, good job.

Hi, Shakespeare.

How are you doing, Mr. Shaw.

How did it go?

- All right, ladies.
- Bye, thank you.

All right, all right.

Heard he said I wasn't her type.

Fantastic.

Yeah, he said the
same thing about me too.

You know I auditioned
for him several times?

And he doesn't like
nothing that I do.

Yeah, I think he's
bi-polar or something.

Hey, I went on an
audition today.

I was positive.

Man, I feel good about it.

Remember the woman
that said like this

and moving her hips?

My benefactor,
supporter, my boss.

She's the one responsible
for keeping my classes going

at the hospital.

Man, I really exercise them.

I Keep 'em happy.

That was a great class.

Are we still meeting
later at the hospital?

Now, I would never,
ever miss that.

I'll see you later.

Bye.

[both laughing]

That's how you
get 'em all, huh?

You oughta invite
me to you class,

I'd come in and take
'em all away from you.

Yeah, don't quit your day job.

Time to eat.

Come on now.

Come on down, it's time to eat.

Smells good for a change.

I hope it tastes as
good as it smells.

Bill Sanders wants you to work

at the Long Island
plant tomorrow.

Sanders, he'll be
out of a job soon.

The young ones are coming up

and pushing all
the old timers out.

Well, just last week, three
men were forced to quit.

Why?

The young one's,

the company doesn't
care for the old timers.

They don't care about
experience, just youth.

It's a shame.

Well, at work, when one of
the medical assistants gets old

or leaves, they put
someone young in.

Thank God I'm still young.

Boy, if I was young now

with all the opportunities
lying around.

Mom, can you pass the salt?

You know, I hate to put all
this salt in your good food.

You're young, it won't kill
you till you get to my age.

Oh ma.

Where's Eddie?

He's going to see
about a job.

How exciting?

Maybe he'll get it this time.

When is that boy gonna learn?

Thousands perform
in the stage union

hardly any other
than work and study.

He'll get
something, he's good.

It doesn't matter if
he's good as who you know.

Tell him to quit, Marty.

You know that lady I've
been messing with, Margo?

You mean that old lady

with the three
grand kids your age?

Man, not my age.

Now, quit joking around
all the time, man.

She knows Joshua Wild.

Joshua Wild?

The Joshua Wild.

The director.

She is a good friend of his,

and she's gotten me an audition.

I've gotten the
perfect piece, man.

I know it's gonna blow him away.

I mean, I'd give my right
arm to work with Joshua Wild.

Yeah, maybe at least one
of us can get some work

this winter.

Yeah, man.

I'll be able to get
out of parent's place.

I feel good about this.

Do you know what
gets me nervous

A long winter coming
on and there's no work.

A lot of these shows
are closing down.

Yeah.

It's like another
long cold winter.

I guess, I have
to work at Macy's.

Don't remind me.

Thank God for Macy's.

[Paul] Now, why couldn't
Eddie become a doctor?

That's a living.

[Jenny] Everyone's
different Daddy.

You gotta give Eddie a chance.

He has to do what he loves.

[soft music]

Hi.

Eddie, supper is ready.

It's your favorite.

Did you have to
add a lot of salt?

We love your cooking.

So?

So, what?

So what!

[Eddie] What?

So did you get the job?

No, I wasn't the type.

But they liked me.

They told me to keep in touch.

That's good.

Soon you'll be on Broadway.

Yes, with my name in
lights and they'll say,

"Well, there goes
Eddie, the great actor."

And I'll have to run
away from crowds.

Yeah, yeah, take your time,

your food's getting cold.

Well, what a
business, just dreams.

I wish I could dream, but real
men face life and fight it.

You don't face life,

you run off in dreams
to get away from it.

Look, I've been
facing life all day.

My dreams, they keep me
going, they pick me up.

To what?

Paul, stop.

[Paul] Acting, why
don't you give up.

Get out of the business and
learn a trade or something.

Wake up.

I have a profession..

[Paul] A starving one, acting.

Well, don't worry,
I'll be a star next year.

I'm sure of it 'cause then
you can get me that mink coat.

Yes, I can get you 100 minks.

And my diamonds?

Yes.

And jewelry?

[Eddie] Yes.

A car.

[Eddie] Yes.

And maybe even a house.

Dreamer, dreamer, wake up.

I'm wide awake and
I'm going straight up.

Yeah, to clean the
50th story toilet

of the Empire State Building.

Daddy!

I'm just trying to...

Look, I wanna do this.

I like it.

And the people, they say I'm
going to be a great actor.

You're 27 years old.

If you haven't gotten by now,

you're never going to do it.

Now, let's stop
arguing and eat.

Just leave him alone, daddy.

I'm just trying
to wake him up.

Oh shut up.

Let him study.

Study!

I was working 16 and
working at B. Altmans.

And what has
that got you, huh?

Where are you?

That's the thanks I
get for supporting you?

You see.

Bring them up and
they spit in your eye.

I'll tell you what I've got,

I've got clothes on my back,

food on the table,
a roof over my head.

And a pot to piss in.

- That's what I have.
- Stop it.

- What do you have?
- Both of you, stop it.

Stop it, where are you going?

[Eddie] Out.

Where?

[Eddie] Just out.

[Marty] You didn't
finish eating.

[Eddie] I'm not hungry.

He doesn't make a
dime, but he goes out.

Rockerfeller without a dime.

I'm rich in heart,
and that's enough.

Eddie, wait.

Wait, Eddie.

You know how daddy is.

Yeah come back and eat
some more of my money.

[Jenny] Stay, eat.

Phil is coming.

Don't let him bother you.

Don't let him take you apart.

Stupid, stupid boy.

Yeah, I'll see you later.

[Jenny] Eddie.

Leave him alone.

Leave him alone.

That's the trouble.

When I go, what will he do?

He'll get a job,
like everyone else.

Where?

He's got to make money now.

Daddy, wouldn't it be funny
if he does becomes a star?

Yes, very funny.

Daddy, leave him alone.

He really cares for you.

Just please just stop it.

[audience clapping]

[Announcer] We'll
be back in 10.

A few drinks.

And you know, we
could go out some times

'cause I would love, no, no, no,

love to get to know you
better, you know what I mean?

You gotta check with my
boyfriend, he's the bartender.

Sorry.

You're crazy.

You're gonna get us killed.

That was close.

I just don't know, man.

I can't go back home anymore.

I can't take it, like
I'm gonna crack up, man,

I can't make it.

I get depressed and I
can't do things anymore.

That's just family dynamics.

You'll be alright.

Everybody got issues.

All I want is to have
passion in my life.

And I deserve to be happy.

Look, there are people that
have a passion for something.

And they do.

I mean, it's not their
profession but they enjoy it.

And maybe it's dance,
act, poetry, but...

Come on, what the hell?

They're dancers,
they take my class.

Look, or they go back to
take mathematics as a kid,

but they grow up and
they take classes.

Play the flute, do something.

Hey.

You taught a great
class the other day.

And I just wanted to thank you

for considering me to dance
in your new Broadway show.

Oh that's no problem.

You'll be great.

Thanks.

Yeah.

Thanks.

What!

You are so full of it.

You couldn't even
get an agent.

I'm playing the game.

Look, all I need is that
desire to keep me alive

If I make it, then great.

But if I don't make it,
then that's okay too.

We just wanted to say, hope
you guys have a good night.

Hey, hey, all right.

Yeah, of course.

All right, darling,
[indistinct].

- Bye.
- Bye.

Thanks.

Look, I'm determined
to make it, man.

I work hard and I study.

Look, I don't wanna
be famous, man.

I'm just determined
to keep acting.

Oh, would you think positive
and keep working your craft.

You know I go to
Philly and Trenton

two days a week to teach.

And if you wanna use
my apartment, you can.

Man, I don't need your place.

Margo, has her own apartment.

No, you're not
like your father.

Forget about him.

You're you.

Look, you do the best in life
and that's all you can do.

So cool it, go back
home, forget about it,

and tomorrow is a new day.

Where are you going?

I just told you to go back home.

I'm going up there,
on the third floor.

Is that why we
came to this bar?

Was that Joshua Wild's chick?

Yeah, the Joshua Wild's chick.

But then why are you going?

Have you met my parents?

Anything's better,
even a night with her.

You trying to put me off?

Come on.

All right, look, she's a
great-looking chick, all right?

Yeah, see you.

All right, wait,
wait, wait, listen.

[door bell rings]

It's Phil, I'll get it.

Hello people.

[Paul] Hello Phil.

I hope you're not gonna be late.

Ah, don't worry.

The show starts at eight.

Oh, good, I'll go
upstairs and change.

Excuse me, honey.

I'll be right back down.

Don't scare him away, daddy.

[Paul] She'll be
with you in a minute

- Nice to see you, Phil.
- Good to see you.

Would you like
something to eat?

Oh, no thank you, I just ate.

How about a cup coffee?

A cup of coffee,
I'll take that.

I can't wait until
you marry Jenny.

I'll have a doctor
in the family.

A son to talk about.

You have a fine boy.

He's nice, but he's stupid.

Lives in ideals, in dreams.

He's young.

He'll be all right.

I don't know.

He tries to get
work, but never does.

His day will come.

I hope so.

They think I don't
care, but I do,

that's why I try to
make him understand.

Well, it's a bad field.

Could you get a job, Phil?

Any job?

I'll ask around.

Good boy.

I'm glad I have you
almost in the family.

Ready.

Isn't she beautiful?

The best looking girl in town.

Daddy stop, you're
embarrassing me.

[Phil] You're ready?

Good night.

Have a good time.

You know, I wish you
wouldn't talk to Eddie

while he's eating.

It's the only one time
I get a chance to see him.

I have to make him
understand life.

Like we understand each other.

We were a different story.

We weren't meant for one
another, we made a mistake.

I don't know, Paul.

I think if we gave it a
chance, we could be happy.

I'm too old.

No, you're only 63.

I'm 63 with hardly anything
in the bank and a bum leg,

and a two bit job.

I'm just waiting to go,
then you'll all be happy.

Oh, shut up.

Die, if you want to.

Go ahead and die.

See if I care.

It doesn't have to be so bad.

We could be together.

Marty, would you leave me
alone, you're driving me crazy.

Oh, do I disgust you?

Do I make you sick
when I touch you, huh?.

You sleep on the
other side of the bed.

Why don't you come to
my side of the bed.

Marty, goddam,
will you stop it.

What's the matter?

You don't like my smell?

You're talking crazy, Marty.

- Why don't you touch me?
- Why, why, will you stop?

[upbeat music]

You don't like being with me.

You hurt me.

You hurt me.

I can cook for you.

I can clean for you.

I could take care
of your children.

I could take care
of your household,

but I'm not good
enough for your love.

Marty, goddamn it, stop.

[Marty grunting]

[Marty crying]

What about your mistress?

What mistress?

You're crazy.

Your mistress.

Your mistress.

Three people on
the block told me

they saw you prancing around.

You don't even try to hide it.

You make our marriage and
our family look like crap

in the street.

I don't know what the
hell you're talking about.

Don't you lie to me, Paul.

Don't you dare lie to me.

I gave you a life.

You know something?

Maybe I will get me somebody.

Somebody who will appreciate me.

Someone who will love me.

Someone who wants to touch me.

Somebody who wants me.

[soft music]

What a life.

What a lousy life.

Listen.

Listen, a friend of
mine has given me,

oh, you know Nancy.

Nancy from my dance class.

Anyway, she's this big
deal patron on the arts,

and she's given this fund raiser

for this major dance
company coming in town.

Now, she's inviting a lot of
big deal directors, producers

and heavy weight money
people, millionaires.

Now, she invited me
to come with a friend.

Now, it's not for now, it
will be in a little while.

Look man, I think I'm through
with those kind of parties.

This is high class.

I'm talking suits and
tie, formal, wild blast.

You're crazy, all right?

Crazy ladies,
wild [indistinct].

Okay, gimme a ring.

Wild.

Okay, men.

See yah.

Would you keep it down?

You're gonna wake up
everybody in the building.

Don't hurt yourself up there.

I love you grandma.

Oh, good, good, good, grandma.

Hey, don't you hurt grandma.

[chuckles]

- Hey.
- Hey, you're in my class.

You're going my way?

Yeah, absolutely.

Thank you God.

So you wanna tell
me [indistinct]

you should be a soloist.

You going to be a big star.

[dog barking]

You're late.

Why didn't you call, I
wouldn't have cooked.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

I'll heat it.

I don't want anything.

I don't have an appetite.

You've been working all day,

I'll fix you something to eat.

I don't want it.

You need to eat.

I said I don't want anything.

You gotta have
something to eat.

I don't want anything,
I don't have an appetite.

Would you listen to me?

I said I don't
want, put it down.

I have to talk to you, Marty.

What?

Is anybody here?

Why?

Is anybody here?

No.

Jenny's gone to a movie,

and Eddie, well he hasn't
been here for a long time.

That damn kid, he doesn't
even call us anymore.

Oh, that's your fault.

You shouldn't fight
with him all the time.

What do you expect from him?

Maybe if you stop
arguing with him,

why don't you take some time out

and talk to your
son for a change.

I just lost my job.

I was fired.

Marty, I just got fired.

[Marty] What?

Fired, don't you
understand, fired.

But you've been with them
for so long, you're a good man.

Sure I am.

And one year more and I
would have had a pension.

Son of a bitches, they
brought a new group in,

and everything's changing.

Young people who push
to get to the top,

and they don't care
who they're pushing.

But you know so much.

Well, tell that to the boss.

Why?

It's happening.

They're pushing
everyone out of work.

Charlie Smith, Jim Santos,

and Sanders were
forced to quit too.

Things are changing, and
they're leaving us behind.

It's not just the young,
it's this new technology crap.

They put a chip in and 50
people get put out of work.

[Jenny] Hello.

Damn!

[Jenny] Hello.

[Paul] Good movie?

It was great.

We laughed from
beginning to the end.

We had a ball.

You gotta go see
it, I'll take you.

Yeah, that's nice.

What's wrong?

Your father lost
his job today.

No!

[Paul] Yes.

Daddy, I'm sorry.

It was coming.

I knew it would happen someday.

I guess today was the day.

Automation hit.

Some machine with no
head took his job.

So what do we do
in the meantime?

Get unemployment.

They'll ask me, "How
long did you work?"

I'll say, "41 years."

I'm 63 years old now,
who's gonna hire me?

You tell me who?

I'm going to bed.

Good night mom.

Maybe Eddie will can help.

Leave him alone.

Where is he?

He's gone.

Dad, be good to Eddie.

Stop putting him down.

I'm afraid that we can lose him.

He looks very confused
and depressed.

Why don't you treat
him like you treat me?

You treat me so good.

You are good.

I'll do it for you.

Eddie's gonna help.

Yeah.

Great Eddie.

This is what's happening. One of the
actors is helping me in a new project.

Well, he maybe out for a month or
maybe even permanently, and if he is,

I want you to take his place.

Glad to do it.

I'm not sure how
long it will be,

I'll have to call and let you
know about that, all right?

I'll call you.

Bump it out.

Thank you.

I'll call you.

[audience laughs]

I'm married now,
I have an ex-wife.

What was her name again?

Oh, that's right, Plaintiff.

[audience laughing]

I'm trying to quit smoking.

Yeah, me and my
wife we have a deal.

I only smoke after sex.

I still have the
same pack since 1978.

[audience laughs]

The problem is my wife
is up to 3 packs a day.

That's my time.

This is The Stand In.

My name is Bill Dinkerman.

I'll be here all week.

[audience cheering]

Yeah, what.

That's good.

I had a great meeting today with
the new agent today. It looks good.

Great, man.

You're on your way.

What are you doing here?

I switched jobs and
broke up with my boyfriend

because he was too jealous
of all of my customers.

Nobody wanted to
order drinks from me.

I wasn't making any money.

Guys were scared to talk to me

because they thought that he
was gonna try to kill them.

You think?

So, now I'm looking
for someone less violent.

Okay, I'll see
you later, okay?

[all laughing]

Oh man, I've been seeing
Margo for three months now.

And she really has a
great sense of humor.

She is a little older than me.

But she's good and she's kind

and she gives me encouragement.

- That's good.
- Oh, come on.

Hey, have a good
time, all right?

Is she good in bed?

Yeah, she's great in bed.

Well, you must be
tired after four months.

Oh listen man, why are you
always joking around all the time?

Hey, you want me to
jump in and try her?

You sure you don't
want me to try her out?

- I don't need you to try her out, I'm good, man.
- I can be your critic.

I don't need no critic, man.

No, you are a real pig.

You guys really talk
strange about women.

I'm sorry Jenny, but
since you're already taken,

I don't have to be nice.

Okay, thank you.

Listen, since I'm moving
out, I'm moving in with her.

We're thinking about
getting a bigger apartment.

Don't get more serious.

Don't stay with her, not now.

Why not?

Dad just lost his job.

Dad lost his job?

Oh, what great timing.

I mean, come on man.

Wait, you don't get
too tight with her,

this girl is gonna be
on you like nothing.

I can't go back anymore,
I'm gonna crack up.

And I can't do that.

Look I get depressed and
I can't do that anymore.

I'm going to tell Mom
that I'm leaving for good.

No, that's gonna
break her heart.

You don't wanna
do that, trust me.

Once you move in, she's
gonna have control over you,

telling you what to do.

It's like, put the
toilet seat down,

put the toilet seat up.

I've been there,
I've done that, no.

Well, I gotta do it.

No, you don't gotta
do anything, Eddie.

This is the dumbest
thing I've ever heard of.

What is wrong with you?

Well, you never had
the things happen to you

that's been happening
to me in the house.

He loves you.

But he's like real
torture to me.

I can't take it anymore.

Eddie, he just lost
his job, they need you.

Don't get more serious.

They need me?

Dad is always with
that damn bottle,

and that damn crap
he has about himself

and we gotta live with
him not liking anything.

Dad, when he drinks, he
used to hit me and Mom.

I tried to stop him
but he would hit her

over and over again.

I was only seven years old.

Could you imagine
the fright I felt?

I used to hide in the closet

so that he wouldn't
hit me and mom.

I used to shake and tremble.

And now you want me to help him.

Okay, I tried for so
long to please him

but it's never enough.

I can't stand him.

I can't be around him.

I'm sorry if he's lost his job.

It's just too much.

[Jenny] Eddie, I know what
you went through, I was there.

When you were
around, he was nicer.

I know, that was the past.

What about mom?

All that abuse.

She's alone now.

It's just not the
right time, Eddie.

We need you now more than ever.

I need you.

You can't leave now.

You can't be that way.

You have to help us.

You can't treat your
family this way.

You need to stop with
that woman and get home.

The time is wrong.

Look, it's my...

Look, it's my business.

I'm a grown up
now, I'm not a kid.

You're selfish.

Yeah.

Look, I'm gonna go home,
pack my stuff and leave.

I'll live my life the same
way that you lived yours.

And be with whom
I wanna be with.

Okay, okay, look,
let's just go.

Come on.

It's time to be happy again.

Johnny, here's my number.

Call me.

Okay.

[upbeat music]

Oh, you finally
came home to see us.

Where have you been?

You've been gone so long

your father's been
worried about you.

Yeah, I bet.

Oh, stop it.

He loves you, he
wants to help you.

Help me, that's a joke.

Did you have anything to eat?

Do you want something to eat?

No, I'm not hungry

We ate.

I have all this extra food.

Well, where were you?

How's your new life?

Does it matter?

Yes it does.

Oh, Eddie, you're
still with that woman.

Stay away from her, she's bad.

[Eddie] No, she isn't.

She's kind and she
understands me.

She's much older than you.

She's gone out with
all types of men.

She's mixed up.

That makes two of us.

See, I told you, I'm not alone.

Of course not.

Everyone's like you.

Everyone takes time
to get started.

In your business, you'll
wait a little bit longer.

But that's no reason

you have to make that
woman disease you.

So?

I'm careful.

I protect myself.

I mean, I'm not
romancing every one,

I'm loving every one.

Oh, filthy thing, thick.

You're thick as mud,
you'll never learn.

Thick, thick.

So I'm beyond helping.

I'm past helping,
I told you that.

No, no one is.

You know, Phil called
your father today.

He has a job for you.

I didn't ask for one.

I know, your father did.

Listen, it's a good
paying job in a hospital.

Maybe you'll like it
and become a doctor.

Look mom, I know
what I wanna do.

I wanna become an
actor and I'm good.

Remember that show
I did off-Broadway?

So you're good.

But look at all the good ones.

Thousands, and only one job.

Take the job in the
hospital, Eddie.

Make some money.

Enjoy life.

Don't waste your youth away.

Get a girl your
own age, be happy.

I am happy.

Life is too short, live it.

Damn it, cut it out.

For my sake, Eddie sit down.

Eddie sit down, Eddie sit
down, I wanna talk to you.

I wanna tell you something.

But you're not to tell a soul.

Your father loved
his first wife.

After having Jenny, she
died from the birth.

I knew your father since he
was a boy, and I loved him.

Your father likes me, Eddie,
but he doesn't love me.

What are you talking about?

He loves you.

Listen, so years have
gone by, and you were born.

A son, he always wanted a son.

He has a funny
way of showing it.

Oh, stop it.

I thought now he would
love me, I gave him a son,

but inside him, without
knowing it himself,

he would hurt you, to get to me.

See, it's anything, I
produce, that's bad.

He loves you, it's me.

Then if you feel that way about
him, why don't you leave him?

After 27 years?

We're old, where will we go?

No, we need each other now.

Take the job, Eddie.

Let him be proud of
you, he loves you.

For me, let him love me.

Look, you want me
to give up my life.

You want me to
give up everything.

You want me to do this,
you want me to do that.

I can't, I can't.

I have a show.

Besides, I just came to
pick up a few things.

You have to do this for us.

We need the money.

Do it for me, he is not working
anymore, he's gotten older.

Even for a little while.

[Eddie] What do you
mean for a little while?

If you get a job,
then you can change.

But right now, we
need the money.

Do it for your family.

Do it for your father.

We need the money for the house.

It's hard for us.

We didn't pay the taxes
on the house last quarter,

we gotta do it for this quarter,

we're gonna lose the house.

And if I don't pay my half
the rent to Margo I'll lose,

our relationship will be
over, she'll throw me out.

You gotta give her money?

I don't have to
give her money,

I just don't wanna
feel obligated.

Get rid of her,
she's using you.

You're using me, everyone's
using me, everyone needs me.

She's destroying you.

The taxes, we can
lose the house.

Don't I mean more
to you than Margo?

You're giving her half
your money when we're broke

and we could lose the house.

She's too old for you.

She's too old, and she's taking
your money and your youth.

The taxes.

We're gonna lose the house,

we're gonna lose the
everything, oh God.

We're gonna lose the house,

we're gonna lose the
everything, oh God, help us.

All right!

You tell him I'll take it.

You tell him I'll take the job.

But I don't wanna
hear anything of it.

I don't wanna hear
about this anymore.

Okay, Eddie.

Thank you Eddie.

I love you, Eddie.

Thank you.

I love you, Eddie.

Good night girls.

[Girls] Good night.

I think you were great.

You're definitely doing well.

I bet we can put you
in the show in Ohio.

Just stay by the phone.

Get out of here.

[laughs]

He's a good kid.

[upbeat music]

All right.

You look good.

Now you gotta watch yourself.

You gotta be real cool here.

And make sure your tie is right.

This is high class.

[door bell ringing]

[DJ] Let's dance.

[upbeat music]

Let's welcome our host, Nancy.

[audience clapping]

Hi, thank you.

[upbeat music]

Thank you, thank you.

Have a great time.

There's food and wine.

Have a good time,
enjoy yourselves.

Be generous.

Have a good time.

How did I do?

Great, good job

I'll see you later.

Yes, yes.

[upbeat music]

You see the good
looking girls over there?

Nurses.

How do you know them all?

Yeah, I teach them some
kind of exercise class.

An exercise class
is at the hospital.

I move their body parts around.

All around.

I'll see you later.

What am I gonna do?

Mingle, buddy.

[soft music]

My name is Eddie.

Mine's Lilly.

Pleasure to meet you.

So, are you here by yourself
or are you here with someone?

No, not yet.

Are you here with someone?

Yeah, I'm here with
my friend, Johnny,

he teaches exercises
down at the hospital.

I know Johnny.

So, would you like to dance?

I guess so.

So, what do you do?

I go to college, and you?

Well, I work in a hospital.

Oh, excuse me.

What college do you go to?

Colombia.

You know he's a
friend of Johnny's?

Yes, I know.

Thank you.

Okay.

What was that about?

She's just looking out for me.

Johnny has quite a reputation.

He's a great guy.

So, what do you study?

Psychology.

Oh, so you can sit me
in a chair and analyze me?

Not till I graduate.

Okay, before the next dance,

get your cheque books out,

because we're auctioning
off of French Impressionists

and other works of art.

So, let's support the company.

I should go.

Wait, wait, wait,
are you French?

No.

Well, you look French.

Yeah.

It's just something about
you that's very refreshing.

Yeah?

Yeah.

I mean, maybe it's those
great, exotic eyes.

I think I heard that
line in a movie before

about those great exotic eyes.

This is my first party.

I should go.

Well, your first, huh?

Well, this is my first too,
I've never been here before.

Well, that was nice.

Thank you for the dance.

You're welcome but
where are you going?

[DJ] Okay, thank you so
much for your donations.

[indistinct]

Come on, let's dance.

[upbeat music]

Okay.

[upbeat music]

Let's get some fresh air.

Okay.

[Bill] Nancy.

Nancy.

Nancy.

What are you calling Nancy for?
That's my wife.

She's your wife?

Yeah.

Oh, well, let's go
look for her then.

Nancy.

Nancy.

Nancy.

I hope you're not
in the flowers again?

God you're killing me.

[upbeat music]

[Lilly] What do you
do at the hospital?

Well, look at those stars.

Take a look at the moon.

Yeah, I do everything
except for operate.

Do you go to school?

No, no, I don't.

Do you wanna be a doctor?

No.

I'm an actor.

Always have been
and always will be.

Actor, that must be exciting.

Yeah, I guess so.

I sing.

I love to sing.

Ah, singer.

Nothing professional.

Well then you must be good.

I envy you doing
what you love.

I wish I could just
do it like you.

So do it.

Not in my family.

That's why I'm
going to Columbia.

I must be a psychologist.

Where do you work as an actor?

Broadway, movies, television.

All right, so if you look at
your house on Fifth Avenue,

you go all the way down
to the end of the park

and make a right.

Then you go all the way
down till you hit Broadway,

once you're on Broadway,

you go all the way
down, make a left.

You go all the way down,

and when you see all the
lights in the theaters,

that's where I work.

Yeah, I see that.

What have you been in?

Maybe I've seen
you in something.

I don't think so.

I've been having a
bit of a bad streak,

that's why I'm working
in the hospital,

to make some extra money.

Well, I should go back in.

Where are you going?

Well, if you leave now, who
knows if I'll see you again?

Of course you will, it's
New York, it's a small city.

Well, just tell me when
and where, and I'm there.

I don't know.

Come on.

Look, I'm really a nice guy.

And a fresh one too.

Yeah, I know.

So, what do you say
if we go back inside

and have one more dance.

Okay, one more dance.

One more.

[upbeat music]

Johnny, I can't
take it anymore.

I have to have you, I can't
wait for the class tomorrow.

I think we have to do it now.

What's that?

I learned it in
your dance class.

And I'm gonna use it now.

No, no, no.

Not now, we can't do this now.

I need you now, I want it now.

But your husband is here.

The whole party is here.

We can't do this.

Oh, but don't
worry about anything.

There's nothing to worry about.

[Nancy's husband]
Nancy, Nancy.

That's your husband.

I can't do this.

I can't do this now.

I'll see you later.

No, stay there.

[Nancy's husband]
Nancy, where are you?

Stay here for a while.

Stay here for a while.

And I will be right
back, all right?

Yeah, I will be right back.

[Nancy's husband] Nancy.

Where are you?

Nancy.

- We gotta go.
- I'm dancing.

Can I get your
number, what is it?

I'll call the
hospital and leave it.

All right, listen, I'm sorry,

somebody got sick or something.

We gotta go, okay?

- All right.
- It's okay.

Nancy.

Nancy.

[upbeat music]

Nancy, anybody seen Nancy?

[upbeat music]

Nancy, Nancy.

Nancy, where are you?

[upbeat music]

Okay, that was great.

Finally, we get
to work together.

Yes!

I told you someday
we will work together.

You have the job, you're
playing a great part.

Oh, great, thank you.

It's 10 weeks in Ohio.

It's a new show, so we're gonna
take it on tour after Ohio.

We hope it happens,
but we don't know yet.

Can you do it?

Yes, yes, I'd love to
finally work with you.

Likewise.

We'll have fun together.

It will be a great show.

I've seen pictures.

It looks like a
beautiful theater.

Yeah it is.

I know my family's
owned it forever.

We've had plays here
for the past 20 years.

Looks terrific.

It is, thanks.

I'm glad you're part
of the family now.

Thank you.

See you.

My assistant will tell you
all about the contract signing

and the itinerary.

[Eddie] All right,
I won't let you down.

I will do a great job for you.

I know you will.

Bye.

You good natured boy.

I'm sorry I treated you
like that the other day.

It's why I brought
you here today.

I like you and I'd like
for us to be friends.

Well, I like you.

And I have fun with you.

I don't see a different person.

I just see Lilly.

Good.

And this is the mansion where
the party was a few weeks ago.

What are we doing here?

[Lilly] You see,
my grandfather and my great grandfather,

they're industrialists.

[Eddie] Well, they'll
probably throw us in jail.

Yes, maybe.

Well, this is my home.

This is were I live.

Okay, you were the
hostess of the party?

This is your house?

That was your party?

Yes.

Look, I'm sorry.

Why didn't you throw us out?
I was rude to you.

It's okay, you
treated me different.

I don't want you to
treat me any differently.

It's a mansion.

No, no, no, it's a castle.

And you're a princess.

Thank you.

I don't want you to
treat me differently.

I'm an actor.

I play different roles.

And right now, I'm in like
a Scott Fitzgerald novel.

I understand.

Well, I think so.

Wow!

Every time I see a play,
I wish I was in it.

You will, you're real good.

I can tell, you'll make it.

Lilly, I lied to you.

When?

You won't think anything
less of me, would you?

Not if you tell me.

Is it about your
girlfriend or my boyfriend

that I told you about?

About the plays, and
the movies, it's not true.

I can't even get an agent.

You will.

The closest I've ever been
to Broadway is Off-Broadway.

Well, some people
say, Off-Broadway

is better than Broadway,

and if you appeared Off-Broadway,
then I know it's better.

You're a good kid.

I always wanted to do this.

[upbeat music]

What?

[upbeat music]

Like this.

I've always wanted to
run around the fountain,

like Fred and Ginger.

[upbeat music]

I wish I was a good dancer
but I'm not that good.

We were doing just fine.

Do you love me?

I don't know.

We just met two weeks ago.

You don't have to
know somebody long.

All it takes is a look

and a heart.

Yeah?

I knew I saw
that movie before.

You're gonna like this.

Lots of sex.

You're staying up late
now watching movies.

What happened to us, Paul?

What's wrong with me?

Tell me, I'll change.

[Paul] You can't change.

I need you Paul.

Cut it out, Marty.

[laughs]

Well about time,
look who's here.

Where the hell were you?

I went out on for an
audition, and I went out,

out with a girl.

Where does she
live, California?

Fifth Avenue.

You know the girl that I have
been seeing for two months.

Rich girl?

Her father's the
head of the hospital.

Good, I approve.

You need a rich girl,
you'll never be anything.

Oh, leave him alone.

[Paul] Live with her parents?

Yeah, listen,
she's just a friend.

[Paul] Yes, how old is she?

21, she'll be 22 soon.

So he finally made it
to catch the late show.

Do you want something to eat?

No, I had something
while I was out.

I'm going to go to bed.

Good night.

Good night.

[indistinct]

[Child] I took it
from an old woman.

[Man] You stole it?

You know he's
a terrific actor.

Everyone's
terrific, except you.

Yeah, but I'm still young.

Well how old do
you have to be?

Come on, dad, stop.

I'm working now.

Did you find work?

No, was out all day, nothing.

I guess people have no use
of a guy with a bum leg.

How about yesterday?

Keep on trying.

What about the day
before yesterday?

Didn't they like you?

I mean, you're such a great guy.

I'm too old.

But you, you're just a dreamer.

You know, I'm out all day

pounding the
pavement, auditioning.

And you're coming down on me

like I'm a worthless
piece of garbage.

Now you know how I feel.

Now how would you like it,
if after being out all day,

knocking around, I
told you to give up?

How do you like how it feels?

Shut up.

Listen dad, I'm
gonna quit my job.

What!

I have to act, take classes,
go on auditions again.

I have to act.

But you're making money
now, you can't quit.

I know that, but if
you had work, I could.

I have enough money for
myself to live on now.

I'm not working.

You can have my job.

You'll like it.

It's easy work,
you're getting older.

It's light work.

Your work is too heavy.

You're crazy.

I'm gonna quit anyway.

- It's not your job to give.
- Yes it is.

I talked to Dr. Lloyd, he's
the head of the hospital.

He says, it's alright.

It's not what I made
before, it's much less.

It's not as much
as you made before,

but the house is all paid for.

You don't have any bills.

Jenny will be get married soon.

It's just you and mom.

I have enough money
saved for myself.

It's just you and mom,
it'll be more than enough.

- I don't know.
- I'm gonna quit anyway.

Come on dad.

You and your acting.

But I'm gonna quit anyway.

I don't care, I'm
gonna live my life.

I'm gonna do what matters to me.

I'm gonna have a life
that means something.

And I'm gonna have
someone who I love.

I'm not gonna be cheating

like the mistress you
have on the block.

Stop it.

Stop it, stop it.

Stop.

I'm not seven
years old anymore.

You can't hit me any more.

You were supposed to be
my hero, but no more.

And if you put your
hands on mom again,

I swear I'll put you down.

Okay, I'll take it.

[soft music]

I love you dad.

Damn kid.

[laughs]

[car honking]

This is a cute room.

This is what an
apartment looks like.

Yeah.

I guess this is like a
little room in your house.

Is this your apartment?

No, it's my friend,
Johnny's place.

He lets me stay here
when he's out of town.

Is this where you used
to bring your girlfriend?

You mean Margo.

She's just a friend.

Did you love her?

She's just a friend.

What about your
boyfriend, Frank Wright?

He's boring not much fun.

It's nicer with you.

You know, I've been
seeing you now for 3 months.

And I really love
spending time with you.

No need to be jealous,
you're way ahead.

I love spending time with you.

And I'll try not to be jealous.

I got great news.

I got a job!

That's terrific.

Oh, man, it's gonna be
10 weeks worth of stock.

I mean, we're gonna be
doing all kinds of shows.

I mean, it's great experience,
I really hope I can...

I'm gonna miss you.

I'm gonna miss you too.

So soon?

It's only ten
weeks worth of stock.

And then I'll be back.

I'll be waiting.

I love this time of day.

The sun is down

and the darkness sets in.

It's a time of day where
we can think of privacy.

Nobody from out
there to bother us.

Out there, early evenings are
like the start of a new day.

It's the world saying,

now we can think, have privacy.

The day's hurting is done.

We can rest and live.

And love.

I love you so.

[upbeat music]

[sirens wailing]

You're 2 1/2 months.

Feeling any better?

The same, a little nauseous.

Well, how do
you like Brooklyn?

It's okay.

My father doesn't want anyone

to see his precious
daughter pregnant.

He loves you.

Yeah, he loves me.

You know, we all
missed your mother

and God gave me the gift
for me to take care of you.

You became my child and I
just want the best for you

'cause I love you.

Very few people could
live the way you can.

Go out with someone with
intelligence like Frank Wright.

Now, he'll become something.

You're too young to
know what love is.

You don't know what life is.

Can't you see it?

You both will lose.

Hey, thank you.

[Casting director]
Thank you, next.

Oh, wow, hey, you're back, huh?

What a crazy audition.

This director, she
is out of her mind.

Yeah.

You been gone a long time.

Three months,
that's a long time.

You've been back for good?

Yeah.

Hey, you ever been to any
more of those parties?

Yeah, but only the wild ones.

Remember that Fifth
Avenue party we went to?

Did you ever go back there?

No, I can't go back there.

Shit, not after that night.

But you remember the girl?

The cutie who you were
talking to at the party?

Yeah, have you seen her?

Have I seen a girl
you've been going with?

No.

Why don't you give her a ring?

Yeah, I have but I can't
reach her, I get no answer.

Yeah, well, she's probably
going out with somebody else.

Yeah, can't trust them.

[Casting director]
Thank you, Eddie.

Good luck, man.

You're still going
out with Margo?

'Cause you know I met her
and she wanted to go out

but I wanted to ask you first.

I finished with
her long time ago.

Man, it's cool, cool.

All right, have fun.

Good luck, man.

[upbeat music]

You could put that book down.

I got this one for you
because we're getting close.

We're almost there and
you better read it.

There you go.

[Lilly] Thank you, Anna.

Oh, anytime.

I'm scared, Anna.

There's nothing
to be scared of.

It's a natural thing.

And don't worry, Anna is here.

Thank you, Anna,
for everything.

Anytime, I mean,
okay, just this once.

Don't want to give you any
ideas to try this again.

To be young and foolish.

When you're in love, you're
always young and foolish.

To be young and foolish.

All the fun that I
could still have.

Anna, I didn't know
you're a wild woman.

Well, I can't have dreams?

I guess so.

Anna, I'm still in love.

You still like him?

I love him.

What I'm I gonna do?

Don't ask me.

What would you do?

I don't know.

Ask your father, he knows.

I have to forget,
I have to move on.

He's not for me.

Well, call me if you need me.

See you later.

Bye.

[Anna] Bye.

Hello, Eddie.

Come in.

Lilly, man, it
feels good to be home.

I've waited a long
time to see you.

Is it mine?

Of course.

Well, why didn't you tell me?

I would have told
you what to do.

We'll get married,
we'll be happy.

Yeah, I'll quit
acting and get a job.

Is that what you want?

No, I want you.

Yeah?

Why is acting, or any
other job important?

You and me being together,
us building a life.

It's all that we need.

But I do, I love my work.

I grow each and
everyday as a person.

But I wouldn't expect
you to understand.

I can't get a regular job.

So try and stay acting.

Maybe you can make money.

Look Eddie, you may not be
as good as you think you are,

but I don't care.

Well, who knows
if the baby's mine.

I mean, I've been
gone a long time.

My father was right.

He said, he'd be the only
one who cared for me,

who I can trust,
he was so right.

Look, I'm sorry.

No.

I love you.

We'll have a baby.

We'll get married.

I'll quit acting and get a job.

No.

You don't love me.

We don't know what love is.

We're just two kids
without anything in life.

Before, I thought you
and me being together,

building our life
together was all we need.

I was wrong.

You don't want me, you
don't know what you want.

Cut it out, we'll get married.

We'll wind up wrong.

Stop.

No.

What will you do?

It's all arranged.

When the baby is born,
I'm not to see it.

It goes for adoption.

And when I'm rid of it, I'll
start a new, with new people.

Maybe I'll marry Frank Wright.

He's rich, he's in our class.

But who knows?

Lilly, what happened to you?

You should know,
you caused this.

We've had our fun,
now it's finished.

Look, I'll never let you go.

Stop, no.

Look, I love you, you're mine.

Stop, talk to me.

No, no, you ruined your life.

Who's this?

Anna, this is Eddie.

Get out!

Lilly.

- Goodbye.
- Haven't you caused

enough trouble
[indistinct], get out!

And if you come back
again, I'll call the cops.

Good-bye, leave me alone!

I hate you, I hate you.

Just let him go.

Oh, Eddie.

[sobs]

I can't live without you.

I think about you.

I'm going crazy.

We'll have the baby.

I can't live with myself knowing
you'll give the baby away.

I can't live without you.

I love you.

I miss you.

I love you, I miss you.

Well, tell your father.

Oh, what is happening here?

Oh, I can't take
anymore of this.

You will come and live
with us in Brooklyn.

We will be together.

Oh my heavens, oh my God.

And I'm in trouble now.

Did I just hear that
you're going to come

and live with us in Brooklyn?

Oh, I'm done.

Hi Shakespeare.

I was looking for you.

I thought I'd find you here.

Yeah, this is
my private space.

And I could think and be alone.

You know I brought Lilly here.

If I can't bring her here,

I'd take her to the
roof of the building.

You could use my
apartment instead of this.

We just talked.

You got such a one track mind.

All right, listen, I landed
an audition with Joshua Wild.

What!

Yeah.

That's great.

No, no, I had to work for
it 'cause Margo got it for me.

Oh, I can tell
you had to work.

Looks like you lost some weight.

Yeah, but my best performance

'cause I got you
an audition also.

How did you do that?

She hates me for leaving her.

I worked very hard.

So check, so look, look,
so I'm like, I like this

and I said [indistinct].

I said, [indistinct],
she said [indistinct].

You touching me in
all the right places.

Be my slave, I said [screams].

You're too rough.

I said, "Oh, I'm sorry."

She said, "But I love it."

I said, [indistinct].

She said, "Oh, God,
oh, God, oh, God.

Okay, you make me so high."

And I said, "You
making me boil over."

She said, "Okay,
okay, okay, okay,

I'll get Eddie an audition."

Then she pulled me to the bed.

Man, I took a deep breath
and I used up all my energy.

I was like, yeah.

And I was like,
yeah, yeah, yeah.

And I lost 10 pounds.

I was like, ah.

[indistinct]

Wait, wait, hold on.

Then I thought I
was going to die.

And then she just gave in.

Ah, you mean it?

Yeah.

She said look, Joshua
Wild was your guy.

I like him but you
was crazy about him.

Oh man, I needed this.

This can change my life.

Now you know, if
you get this show,

Margo said, I'm gonna
have to be with her.

I can't leave her or
she'll get you fired.

Yoh, I am going to be
exhausted if this is a hit.

You know what?

We need Superman.

Better yet, we need God.

God and Superman sent me.

You know what I'm saying?

What!

Are we in trouble?

Did you go to church?

Did you do confession?

Man, with all the bad
things that I've been doing,

it didn't take me a week,

the priest gave me a
month of confessions

just to be cleared by God.

And between God and Margo,

yoh, I'm really tired, man.

Yeah and I hope her
father don't shoot us

before the audition.

'Cause you know fathers.

We get the show
then he shoots us.

Man, come on.

No, that would be dramatic

Hey, that would be better
than a Broadway show.

Your land!

How can you say that
this is your land?

Everybody, show me your hands.

Show me your hands.

These are the hands of the
people that built this land.

[Joshua] Okay, thank you.

Next.

I'm not finished.

Ah, next, next.

Can't you see my talent?

Can't you see what I
did with that monologue?

Can't you see that I'm good.

I did this show in Ohio
and I got great reviews.

This is Broadway, it's not Ohio.

What!

Listen, I guess I don't
see your talent today.

Okay, thank you.

Next.

Go to hell!

Get off the stage
or I'll call Union.

Crazy bastard.

Next.

Come on, what's wrong?

You never saw a stage before?

Come on down, come on.

Okay, let's see
what you could do.

Go.

An angry one.

Angry tap dance.

Go, come on.

Come on, give me the first step.

One more step, give me.

Give me one more step.

Give me one more step, come on.

Give me one more step, I said.

Give me one.

All right, next.

Come on, next.

Ah, come on.

Not bad.

You got guts.

[laughs]

Hey, where are you going?

Come back here, I
didn't tell you to go.

Come on down, come on.

Now listen, okay?

This is a Josh Wild show.

You know what that means?

Josh Wild's show
make people happy.

The happy shows.

People come, they come home
from work, they're tired,

they're depressed,
what do they wanna see?

They wanna get happy, they
wanna see a Josh Wild show.

If they wanted to
see a Greek tragedy,

they'd go to the block.

All right, this is Josh Wild.

So we make 'em happy here.

You here me?

You smile.

Yeah that's it.

Now, give me a
time step, come on.

And go.

Lift your knees.

That's it, that's it.

Come on.

Now do everything
you did before.

But happy, that's it.

That's it.

Good, good, good.

That's it, come on.

All the way home.

Oh my God.

Yeah, that's good.

Give me something else.

Come on, what kind
of shit is that?

Lock it, pop it.

Come on, come on.

That's it, go, come on.

Pop it, pop it, pop it, come on.

Good, give me something else.

Give me something else.

What's that shit?

Come on.

Give me something else.

Give me something else now.

Come, on, come on, that's it.

Move your [indistinct], come on.

Go, go, go, come on, come
on, that's it, that's it.

That's it, that's
it, come on, come on.

Come on, come on, come on.

All right, all right,
all right, all right.

All right, I gotta stop you
before you hurt yourself.

Did you hurt yourself.

No man.

I'm good.

You're tired?

Nope.

'Cause if you said
you weren't tired,

I was gonna make
you do it again.

No, I'm not tired.

Okay, come over here.

Are you listening?

You got the job.

You got the show

You know what that means?

You're gonna lead
in a Josh Wild show.

You hear me?

You think you can handle it.

Yes.

Okay, now listen,

listen, I said, stop crying.

We're gonna work together,
we're gonna be friends.

I'm gonna teach you everything

and you're gonna be a star, kid.

I'm gonna make you a star.

Stop crying I said.

I'm not crying.

[Joshua] Easy.

[Barbara] Stop crying,
he said, stop crying.

Listen, if you keep crying
[indistinct] like that,

I'll have to let you go.

- Okay, I'll do a better job next time.
- I thought so.

Okay, listen to Barbara,
she'll give you itinerary,

see if you can make it.

Going to rehearsal
in four weeks.

Four weeks rehearsal
in New York.

Two weeks try out in Boston.

Two weeks in Toronto.

Two weeks in Philly.

Then back to New York.

Rehearsal preview, then we open.

Any conflicts?

No, no conflicts.

[Joshua] Okay, then.

All right, you got it,
we'll see you later.

It's just, thank you
sir, I really appreciate.

No, no, no, just go,
just go, see you later.

All right, thank you.

And listen to
me, listen to me,

the next two, four
weeks, whatever it is,

don't do anything crazy,

I don't need to dance
on crutches, okay?

And I'm going home, I ain't
even coming out of the house.

Oh, yeah, I believe that.

All right, I'll see you.

Bye-bye.

Thank you sir.

[Joshua] Thank you.

Thank you, ma'am.

[Barbara] Telephone.

Oh, I got a phone call.

Be right back.

Hold the next.

Hello.

Margo, how are you?

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

Hey, how did it go?

I don't know, I
don't know yet, what?

What's the matter?

Eddie's gone.

I think he's gonna
do something bad.

And Eddie, I didn't give
him a chance to audition

just like you said.

I wiped him out.

Margo got to Joshua Wild
and really wiped Eddie out.

Come on.

I dumped him just
like he dumped you.

Nobody dumps my Margo and
gets away with it, right?

Okay, great.

Listen, let's have
coffee sometime, right?

[dramatic music]

I'm going to the top.

I'm gonna be powerful.

Me, Eddie, the great actor.

Look at me, me!

I've been working too hard
and hoping you're good kid.

I mean remember that show
you did Off-Broadway?

You're good, yeah, you're good.

The unknown awaits.

The silent and peaceful night.

Nobody stands beside you.

Except for a starlit sky.

A breeze flows by.

Thanks dad.

People move on or not,

I live in but just,

going on till the
doctors closes in.

Till the light of a new day

which awaits for people
to hear its cry for love.

You can't take my mind
away from all it wants.

To take my heart away
from all it wants.

I guess that's just life.

I was built.

You gotta fight
for what you want.

But why?

No, Eddie, Eddie.

No, Eddie.

You're doing good.

I lost like a
lot of others have.

You didn't lose.

I lost like a
lot of others have.

In the past and present, and
that will be in the future.

You have me.

Only if the times went with us

instead of against us.

We wouldn't loose faith.

And they're not against
us, they're for us.

Well, I lost like
a lot of other have.

But as long as life
stays the same,

I guess there's very little room

and not much room for one more.

You gotta be strong,
you gotta be strong,

there's room for us.

The audition with Joshua Wild,

Margo got to him.

He put you down because
he did it for Margo.

He's crazy about Margo.

What!

Yeah.

Don't worry, I wasn't
gonna do myself in.

I love life to much.

Joshua Wild is as human.

Well, nobody is God.

We are all human.

And we make mistakes.

Man, we can't be perfect
'cause we make mistakes.

Even if we tried to be
perfect, we're only human.

He was like a God to me.

A mentor, I don't know what
was going on in my head, man.

[sighs]

Yeah.

Yeah.

If there's an
angel, I'll find it.

[Johnny] You'll find it.

And I'll take it.

We'll find it together.

Look, all I wanna
do is what I love.

You will do what you love.

You will do what you
love and so will I.

Yeah, but I don't know how.

[Johnny] I don't know
how, but I got you.

We got you.

I love you.

Look, I'll find it.

Look, I'm gonna leave.

Maybe Hollywood, maybe London,

but I love you and I
want you to come with me.

It's gonna be a tough life,
it's gonna be a hard life.

You'd probably have a
better life somewhere else

but I love you.

I wanna be with you.

Good or bad.

I can't exist without you.

I love you dad.

Goodbye.

[upbeat music]

Look it's Eddie, he's on TV.

[upbeat music]

Is there any other person?

I've seen you in movies,
TV and in a theater.

You were great.

How come you don't
think that you're great?

Thank you.

Look, I'm trying to
make things happen.

I'm gonna be on another TV show.

Really, or Maybe?

I'm leaving you.

If I didn't have that
passion or that strength,

I would have fallen
apart by now.

How about us?

Where is this coming from?

I didn't see this.

We're always alone.

Your acting classes,
working TV, movies.

It sounds good but it
pays very little money.

It sounds good, but we
can't even pay the bills.

You're just waiting
for that big role.

It will happen.

Who cares?

Good luck.

You'll be alone.

I have my father
and Frank Wright.

He's a single man again

and he has been asking about me.

What the hell is this?

I love you.

It's not working
anymore, leave me alone.

Lilly you can't leave me.

Keep your focus and your desire.

And keep your imagination
going, you're gonna need it.

I feel in prison.

- Lilly, stop, stop.
- You have to let me go.

No, no.

It's always about you.

Get used to it, I won't be here.

I wanted to sing.

I had a passion too.

I wanted to finish my schooling.

I never did anything but
your life, not my life.

I'm tired, I'm tired.

Lilly, Lilly, please.

You're pathetic.

You disgust me.

I don't feel great.

What is great?

I just work hard on the roll.

If I didn't, it
wouldn't be good.

So I'm not great, I'm
just a hard worker.

That's what you
guys gotta learn.

Don't worry, I'll
teach you, all right.

That's it for today.

Work on your exercises
and your scenes

and I'll see you all
next week, all right.

[Girls] Bye.

You're doing a great job.

Thank you so much.

You're welcome.

You're doing good.

[upbeat music]

[soft music]

You know, this class
really kept me going

after my wife divorced
me 2 years ago.

My craft kept me going
and I thank you for that.

Set up your scenes.

Your phone's ringing.

Hello.

What!

Where?

How?

All right, I'll get a flight.

I'll try and get one tomorrow.

How is mom taking it?

I can't believe it.

Dad's dead?

I just never got a
chance to win him over.

Yeah, I'll get there.

Thanks.

Yeah, I'll be alright.

[soft music]

I'm sorry for the interruption.

Let's see your scene.

What a day.

Yeah, but we got through it.

How are you doing, mom?

All right.

Do you know who
you're talking to?

Yes!

That's Eddie.

[laughs]

I'm going to bed, Eddie.

[cries]

Paul's coming back.

He's coming back.

He's not gone,
Eddie, he's not gone.

My Paul.

[cries]

Goodnight, Eddie.

Goodnight, mom.

I love you.

She's getting bad.

I didn't think she
knew who I was.

She does, she just
goes in and out.

That's how it's been.

But you were out in LA,
you had your own problem.

How's Lilly?

Did you see her?

When are you going back?

Maybe tomorrow.

I don't know, I thought
maybe she'd show up.

You were telling people
at the funeral parlor

that you may not go back.

That you may stay.

When are you leaving?

I thought maybe I'd stay here.

Look, I got nothing left in LA.

Johnny had someone put
my stuff in a storage

and he is using my apartment
to house his girlfriends.

He's really helped me
to make this change.

Plus I'm having a hard
time memorizing lines.

I'm not the same anymore.

I thought I'd stay here
and take care of mom.

No, no.

It's all been arranged.

Mom is living with us.

Yeah, she's building her
room on top of the house.

We have somebody
taking care of her.

But I'm willing to do it.

No, you weren't around.

You haven't been here for years.

I couldn't face dad.

But I took care
of them for years.

The house is being sold.

Sold?

Yeah.

Contracts are in.

We're doing well.

Wait, you sold the house?

The house is to be sold,
Mom is living with us.

Well, where am I gonna live?

But, you can't come back.

You're always just
thinking about yourself.

No, I'm always
thinking of everybody.

Jenny, come on.

Stay out of it, Phil.

This is not your business.

If Lilly was still with you,
you wouldn't even be here.

God, I'm so tired, I
have no more energy.

The Doctor said, to take care
of myself and no one else.

But then it was Mom,
Pop, Phil, the kids.

I like, I love it but I'm tired.

I'm tired, I'm at the
end or I'll just die,

is that what you want?

You can take half
the money of the house

and get another place.

I can't take care of you too.

Yeah, but I didn't ask you to.

Eddie.

Eddie, I'm tired.

I can't deal with this.

[Phil] Jenny, Eddie I'm sorry.

Look, I don't know what to do.

Listen, we've been
looking into housing.

We found a spot by the
beach, by the boardwalk.

I have a friend.

He owns a building.

He has a great apartment.

You'll have your own place.

You'll have your own
place on the beach.

It will be great.

And there you can start
your whole new life.

Yeah, I don't know.

It's the only way.

Or you can go back to LA,

but you're not
gonna ruin my life.

Look, I told you, I
got nothing left in LA.

Hey now.

My life is here.

My mom, my kids.

Eddie, you could come
back and visit mom.

But you can't stay.

The beach house
is a great option.

If you don't like it, leave.

But try it.

But what if I can't make it?

Eddie, I can't take it.

Eddie, accept what I'm saying,
or just get out of my life.

Wow, okay now, she
didn't mean that.

She didn't mean that.

Eddie, okay?

You don't mean that.

Okay.

I'll try the beach house.

Yeah, it's gonna be okay.

I'll make sure
everything is okay.

We always do.

Yeah.

We'll be around.

Listen,

you have to excuse
her, you know?

She is under a lot of stress.

But she cares about you.

Yeah, I know.

[soft music]

I came all the way from LA.

Any girls here?

Yeah, but their
too old for me.

They maybe all right
for you though.

Okay, okay.

I missed you.

Yeah, me too.

You know, I love the ocean.

Yeah, it's great.

The life it shows, the sounds,

from rough to
still, not a sound.

The senses, you know?

Still an actor, never changes.

It continuous.

And you're still an
actor and a teacher

and a student of life.

Always.

Would you do it again?

In a flash, how about you?

In a heartbeat.

Even if it was the same?

It's like I had a run,

it wasn't the greatest,
but I enjoyed it.

The show closed.

You know, I haven't seen Jenny?

I've been in here for two years.

Nobody comes or calls.

And then when I call,

she acts like I just wanna
come back into her life.

Now, why would I wanna do that?

So.

I see my mom when
she's not around.

The kids don't come or call.

They're young.

They care.

You know, except
for you calling

and telling me
about your divorces

and all the furniture and
paintings you put out,

nobody comes or calls.

Yeah I'm a loser men.

Her father really didn't...

Oh, all right,
no, come on now.

You know, when I
was married to Lilly,

Frank Wright was all
that was mentioned.

I think I was second to a guy

that wasn't even there.

It really turned
me off, you know.

Yeah, it happens to me a lot.

But I always follow
up with a divorce.

Yeah.

I used to want Lilly back,
but now I think I'm over it.

Oh, thank God.

'Cause you were a basket case.

Yeah, like my father.

You can like somebody but you
don't have to be with them.

[Johnny] We're all screwed
up one way or another.

Well, I guess that just
makes life interesting.

Life.

Well, life is a
mess, but I love it.

They say, we dream
until reality hits.

We dream until reality hits

and shows us what
we can accomplish

with obstacles in our life.

When I dream, I
could do everything.

And I mean I can fly or
have 100 women, one time.

'Cause when I wake
up, I can't fly

or hope hope to
have just one girl.

It's like, waking up is a bitch.

[laughs]

What?

What did I do?

What did I say?

Oh man, I want more, I feel
like I can have one more shot.

I hear you Eddie.

Yeah.

You know, before
I wanted to do it

for my father, mom and Lilly.

But now, I just wanna
do it for myself.

[indistinct]

I have a part.

Listen, now it's a great
part, it's in a film,

and you'll bring it back.

Look, man, that's great,

but I'm having a hard
time memorizing lines,

I'm out of shape, I'm
out of everything.

Come on, I'll put the
lines on a grapefruit.

All over the walls,
you can do this.

This is not about the lines.

And I'll help you.

[Eddie] Yeah?

You still have a reputation.

Now you've don a lot of
good films and theater.

People remember you.

Look, you'll be
bigger than ever.

You'll live a good life.

And I'll keep you
going and working.

How?

You know.

Come on.

I'm bigger now.

I'm much bigger.

I'm bigger than
Joshua Wild ever was.

I have one of the biggest
production companies,

you know that.

And I'll keep my friend,
a great actor working.

And all the girls and
women, I'll get you.

Oh man, listen, I don't
need no aggravation.

All right, all right,

I'll put you back in
your apartment in LA,

get you out of here.

You're not joking?

If it wasn't for you
going out with Margo,

I would have never met Joshua
Wild and work with him.

Your wild activities
gave me a career.

Now its your time.

Come on.

What's the script about?

All right.

It takes place in New York.

It's about an actor who has
a passion for the theater

and a father who puts him down.

Yeah, I know the
role, I feel it already.

Now you play the father.

You can live it again.

Yeah, thanks dad.

You're finally giving
me my big [indistinct].

He wanted me to make it.

- He loved you.
- In his way.

He loved you.

You had problems.

Yeah, we all do.

Well, I'd like to see it now.

Now, I'm gonna have
this big dance number

with lots of girls
opening up the show.

We live on the brink.

And it just takes one
friend to get you back.

Now, there's one
thing you never lose.

What's that?

That's your talent.

Your passion.

And that one friend who's
constant like still water.

Yeah.

All right.

So, tell me about this
piece of [indistinct].

Well, all the girls
are gonna be 25 years.

[Narrator] My son, early
evening's like the start

of a new day.

It's the world saying,
now we can think.

Have privacy.

We can live.

The day's hurting is done.

We can rest and live.
