All language subtitles for Paparazzi (2018)

Hollywood.

It's a place where dreams are made.

Where a small town girl can meet a small
town boy.

And somehow, in a flash, they become
something so big, you neither know how

navigate their own way anymore.

How about some privacy, all right? Get
them while you can, guys. Gone are the

days of a quiet afternoon at home.

That life is over, buried somewhere six
feet under a heaping pile of

exploitation.

Privacy has become an illusion for those
in the spotlight.

There is no time off, no break from the
performance.

They're now part of the Hollywood
machine.

churning out movies and killer smiles,
and falling victim to one of life's

greatest delusions, celebrity culture.

Because nothing and nobody is real in
Hollywood.

Everybody will exploit you. Your family,
friends, agents, producers,

but worst of all, paparazzi.

The electric company turned off all the
power today.

I thought I gave you money for the bill.

Yeah, you did.

But there were a bunch of ladies that we
didn't realize.

And, well, my mom is wiring a bunch of
money to take care of it later tonight.

How'd the interview go?

It was good, but it's another unpaid
gig.

A bar in Bel Air that won't pay.

Yeah, it's stupid, but they told me that
the compensation would be the

connections that I'd make by playing
there.

Everything's a game in this town.

Mm -hmm.

I broke my camera today trying to get a
shot.

What, really?

Here I am trying to take pictures of
people getting out of Lamborghinis, and

can't even afford to fix the camera I
got off eBay.

How can you be a photographer if I don't
even have a camera?

Well, you're not really working as a
photographer.

I mean, you're a paparazzo.

I still get to take pictures.

Yeah, but not like these pictures.

Yeah, well, don't pay the bills.

They could, if you just had a little
more faith in them and kept working with

them. I mean, these pictures have soul.

Stop.

I mean it.

This is the real you.

It's so much better than all that crap
in the tabloids, you know?

The only reason you're having troubles
at work is because, you know, you have a

sense for that real shit. You're always
looking for that real shit.

That's so far beyond what they do there,
you know?

I love you too.

Peace.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Oh, no.

Oh, my God.

Oh my goodness.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

I can't stop.

I can't

stop.

so fucking perfect.

Please don't ever fucking stop.

Oh, my God.

Please, please, please.

Did you just take a break?

I love you.

Yes.

Yes, yes, yes. You saved me.

You saved me. You saved me.

Oh, my

God. You always come so much for me.

I'll give you 20 for them.

Dollars? You're lucky I'm offering to
pay you at all. I had eight other paps

send me the same shot.

Look at how he's touching her arm.
There's a story there. He's helping her

the car.

I can't tell a story if there isn't a
story.

My readers trust my tabloid because I
don't publish fake gossip.

Marcy, I need the money. I broke my
camera and I can't afford to fix it.

use your fucking cell phone like all the
other hacks.

I read somewhere that celebrity
photographers can make around six

How could I do that? Not by sending me
these. These are page filler. They're

front cover.

Okay. What makes a shot front cover?

Something nobody else is getting.

Pussy shots, nip slips, drunken
rampages, emotional meltdowns.

This isn't about camping out on Rodeo
Drive because you know you're going to

someone. It's about...

Telling a story with a photograph, and
the best -selling stories are those that

don't paint a pretty picture.

Well, Chadwick Muller has the best
tabloid magazine, and he doesn't do

He even has a late -night show. Chadwick
Muller's magazine is filled with a

bunch of lies because he wants to be
tight with A -list celebrities. I don't

discriminate. I exploit everybody.

Do you really think that the trailer
park mom of five wants to buy a magazine

filled with pretty pictures of people
drinking their extra foam toy lattes?

She wants proof that their lives are
every bit as fucked up as hers.

You want front cover?

Make these people look as ugly as they
really are.

How do I do that?

Get into their space.

Climb their fences.

Surf their trash cans.

Push them to the breaking point.
Penetrate their fucking souls if they

souls.

This business is about exploitation.

The moment you humanize them, you lose.

Now I'll give you $20 for them, or you
can go somewhere else.

Peter?

Hi! Congratulations, Mr. Best Actor!

I hated everything about Marcy and the
Dirty Dish, but...

She was the only one buying my pictures.

Though I wanted some legitimacy in my
work.

The kind Chadwick Muller had.

Welcome back, everyone. I've got Ginny
Williams next, Skyping with me from her

home in Malibu. She's here to discuss
her big rumored record deal with music

producer Benji Gunn.

Ginny, welcome to the show.

Anything for you, Chadwick.

music producers release your single and
now he's begging you for a three album

deal?

How do you maintain such a level head
through all this?

Well, my relationship with God,
honestly.

I went to church a lot growing up and
I've maintained that relationship with

and he just gives me a feeling of peace.

You turn it off. Let's go to bed. No,
leave it on.

Ginny, your life seems anything but
peaceful.

I mean, yeah, well.

I'm serious. I mean, you're on the cover
of every magazine, the paparazzi

follows you around everywhere.

I try not to let them rattle me.

I mean, how are you going to take those
people seriously?

Ouch. I'm one of those people.

Oh, my goodness.

Okay, I'm sorry, Chadwick, but you're
you.

You have real talent.

Those people's only real talent is their
ability to invade someone's privacy.

But I do still pray for them every day.

Bitch. As much as I didn't want to admit
it, Marcy was right.

Never humanize celebrities.

They exist in a bubble of their own
reality, unaware that it's people like

that actually keep them relevant.

I didn't know what I was going to
stumble upon when I got to Jenny's house

morning. All I knew is that I had to go
there. If she was signing a music deal

that morning, I wanted to be the pap
that got the first shot.

even if it was just a handshake.

I liked the idea of invading this girl's
privacy.

After all, she didn't respect people
like me.

Why should I respect people like her?

I entered through the back, past her
neighbor's house.

She wasn't smart enough to have a house
through the gate yet, so it was easy

access.

No other photographers were there when I
arrived, so this was my chance at

getting an exclusive shot.

I knew what I was doing was trespassing,
but like Mercy said, I had to invade

these people's space if I was going to
get the money shot.

So, has God given you an answer yet? I'm
trying to get back to business here.

I'll be right there.

All right.

I'll be inside.

I don't know what you're hemming and
hawing about.

You just sent me the contract yesterday.

My lawyer still needs to look it over.

It's an $18 million contract.

Musicians, especially your age, don't
get that right out of the gate. In fact,

none.

I'm worth more than that, and you know
it.

Oh, boy.

Okay.

What are you worth?

Twenty. Give me twenty and I'll sign.

I can't do that.

You can't do that.

Please.

I can't sign a $20 million contract just
because you know I like your feet.

Well, you know Proverbs 11 .24 says that
he who blesses shall be blessed

and he who waters shall be watered. And
Proverbs 14 .16 says

fools plunge in with reckless
confidence.

You know, Benji, money buys loyalty.

You know what else buys loyalty?

Sex.

I don't quite grasp what you mean.

Well, you're a virgin, right?

Right.

One of the things that come to mind when
I think of a virgin is that they never

forget their first.

In fact, they're tied to them.

You know what I mean.

So, you give me the ass. And

I gave you something no man's ever had
before.

don't know what i'm doing

Do you like this view?

I do like this place.

Am I doing it right?

Yeah.

Am I doing it right?

Yeah, you're doing it perfect.

version of the contract this afternoon.

Okay.

Hey, don't look so depressed.

Everyone in this town does what you just
did.

Well, I'm not everyone.

Please don't tell anyone I'm not a
virgin anymore.

Why would I do that?

You know how much money I already made
off the virgin lie?

It wasn't a lie!

Honey, it's been a lie way before you
got here.

Besides, it's Hollywood, right?

You gotta stick to the story that sells,
huh?

Am I right?

I'll see you.

How did you get this picture?

Did you break into her house?

No, I was out there the whole time.

That's still trespassing, Desi.

I thought you'd be proud of me. We made
a killing on these pictures.

Yeah, but this just isn't you.

We needed the money.

Not this way.

What way?

By telling the truth?

She's talking so much shit about the
paparazzi in that Chadwick interview,

judging everyone when she's just as big
of a hypocrite.

Still crossing the line. I mean, you
totally ruined this girl's image.

Her phony image.

How can you defend her?

We hate people like her.

She represents everything we can't stand
about Los Angeles.

I know, but... Celebrities don't have
respect for people like us.

Why should we have respect for them?

I just don't want you to get so wrapped
up in all their fake lives that you

start to forget about your own real
life.

It's a job, Danny. It doesn't define me.

Alright, well, I gotta go.

I have another audition at a bar. Okay,
I love you.

Even though Danny hadn't cheered me on,
having my picture on the cover of the

top tabloid magazine in the world was my
red carpet moment.

Just without all the flashing lights.

It was a fame.

Not quite.

It was better.

It was infamy.

After that day, everybody was talking
about me.

My shot was on the cover of every
magazine, and not just tabloids,

publications.

I loved the attention and the anonymity.

I loved the power of knowing I had
single -handedly created a scandal, and

nobody had a clue it was me.

And with my newfound confidence, I took
more risks, got more shots, outed more

secrets.

I was the puppet master playing God with
all the false idols of Hollywood.

And the more pictures I took, the more
addicted to my own celebrity I became.

I was famous, and yet nobody had a clue
it was me.

I assume you know why I called you in
here today.

You do know who I am.

Your publisher from the Dirty Dish told
me you were trespassing on Ginny

Williams' property to get the shot.

Why would she tell you that?

One thing you're going to learn in this
business is that everyone...

We'll stab you in the back eventually.

Okay, so did you invite me to your house
to give me a lesson in how the tabloid

business works? Because Marcy already
gave that to me.

No.

I need you to get a photograph for me.

But there's a catch.

The only way to get this photo is by
trespassing, which you clearly have

problem with But if anyone finds out
about it or if you tell

anyone I'll bury you I'll fucking ruin
your life

Do you understand?

How much did they pay?

I didn't know where Chadwick was sending
me, or if this was a setup, or who he

wanted me to shoot. He just gave me an
address and said, this is your time to

shine. And so I went, blindly.

I knew I had to prove myself so I can
secure his trust.

And eventually, an ongoing gig with the
biggest entertainment magazine in Los

Angeles.

The Rag Sheet.

I'm gonna go for a swim.

I was taking pictures of a couple out in
Beverly Hills.

No, you weren't.

Yes, I was.

I know when you're lying to me.

Where were you?

Danny, is it going to be like this every
time I get home from work?

A fucking interrogation?

If you make it a pattern of lying to me,
then yeah.

I was out getting the biggest shot of my
career.

Something that's going to be on the
cover of every single magazine.

Oh, wow. It sounds like you're really
making a difference.

Just because you don't have a job
doesn't mean you get to shit on mine.

I actually make a lot of money now.

Wow. You know what?

You're really becoming the exact type of
person that you used to hate on

constantly. No, I'm not.

Yeah, you are. You're getting sucked
into it.

No, I'm not.

Yeah, you are. Money, fake power.

Real power.

I'm about to single -handedly destroy
someone's career with one shot.

Ew, and you actually sound fucking proud
of that.

God, you know what? I don't even know
who you are anymore.

Like, what happened to that girl?

The real girl who used to take real
photos of real things.

Now that's something to be proud of. Not
ruining someone's career.

Fuck, he's here. Okay, I have to let you
go. I gotta go.

You better be able to fix this, babe.
The prick said he could fix anything.

Not a very good day, huh, guys?

Look, before you guys start blaming me,
let me make one thing clear.

If I didn't do a story that every other
tabloid was covering, it would have

raised a red flag.

How do we know that you didn't tip
somebody off to Film Magazine?

What? It would make sense.

You're part of our inner circle.

Jesus, guys.

How long have I known about this for?

Why would I leak it now?

To ruin my chances this award season.

Seriously, Liz?

Shit.

This is my lawyer. I gotta take this.

To ruin my chances this award season?
Are you serious, Liz?

You know it would be the easiest way to
hurt me.

Look, I don't know about you, but I've
accepted the fact that we can't be

together. Have you?

Let's take a step back for a minute.

This could be a big opportunity for you.

Opportunity for what?

To live the life you've always wanted.
To be with someone who can actually be

with you.

Leave Reed? Are you crazy? We built a
legacy together.

Promise me you had nothing to do with
this.

I had nothing to do with this. I would
never hurt you.

Swear to me.

Swear on my life. I swear on your life.

Look, I may still be in the tabloid
business, but I have some integrity

left, and I thought you of all people
would know that.

I'm sorry.

I just feel so violated, you know?

We worked so hard to get to where we
are, and...

To have that all just be taken away...
It won't, though.

How can you be so sure?

Because I won't let anything happen to
you.

Because I control the media.

And I'll just print whatever story fits
with this.

People will believe whatever I say
because I printed it.

Do you know what you can do for me?

What?

You can find the... fucking pap who did
this and you can exploit all of their

dirty secrets on your magazine.

I mean, that might be difficult that
these people, they're really under the

radar and it's hard. But if you did that
for me, then I would know how serious

you are about us.

But I thought you said... I know what I
said.

if you're serious about...

You should take my shoes off. What was I
thinking?

Yeah, I don't know where you want to go.

You're going to make me wait for it.

I'll just think about where I want you.

Okay.

Oh my God.

It hurts.

Thank you.

You might know

Yes Oh

So nice to meet you.

Yeah, nice to meet you, too.

Oh, my God, yes.

I love the way you look at me.

So good, baby.

So good.

Fuck,

yes.

Yes, yes, yes.

Oh, yes.

Yes, yes. You remembered.

I'm shocked you made it.

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

Yes!

Yes!

What's in there?

Hmm.

Fuck, yes, yes, yes.

Yeah.

Get out of here.

Do it, baby. Do it, do it, do it.

Take it, take it, take it.

God.

Sit around.

Good girl.

Right there.

Yes. Right there.

Fuck me up.

Yeah. Fuck me up.

Oh my God.

Amazing. You've been making me cum all
day.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yes,

yes,

yes. God damn it.

Yes, baby.

Fuck, I'm in pain.

I'm in pain.

Quickly, can you get that male model to
the house?

You're as manipulative as I am.

No, I just like to sell magazines.

By ruining people's marriages.

And then saving them. I'm a fucking
hero.

Like I said, you're as manipulative as I
am.

I'm in the business of manufacturing...

Factoring stories.

It's what I do.

I thought you were a noble one.

No.

But as long as everyone continues to
think so, that's all that matters.

So, what's the next story?

What do you want me to cover?

If I just gave you every front cover
story, that wouldn't be fair, now would

Come on, it's proven to you you can
trust me.

I want something big.

Do you know who Alexandra Cherie is?

The reality TV whore.

Oh, are you too big for reality TV?

They're not exactly celebrities.

Like I said, I want something big.

This is.

She tipped me off to a potential story
about Brandon De Rossi.

Baseball player who got suspended for
doping. Yeah, I know who he is. What's

story?

Well, given your aversion to reality,
people, I'll just give it to another

Stop playing games. I know you want me
to have it.

Do I?

Yes. Give it to me.

But you don't even know what's involved.

I don't care.

I don't want anyone else to have it.

Tomorrow afternoon, Alexandra and
Brandon are going to meet up and have an

with three of our reality co -stars.

Is it his wife expecting a baby?

Yeah.

And that's what makes it so much better.

Give it to me. I want it.

I just need you to sign this report.

What's this?

It's just in case we get a lawsuit or
something.

I've never had to sign anything before.

My lawyer thinks it's a good idea. Ever
since Brandon had a suspension, he's

become unpredictable.

I wouldn't want him to sue you.

I could have been signing away my
firstborn child and I would have agreed.

At that point, I didn't care who I hurt
or what the job required.

So long as I was the first one to the
story.

But as it turns out, there didn't seem
to be a story.

I waited four hours in the heat for
Brandon to arrive, and he never did.

Don't worry, he's coming.

He's just running a little late.

I'm going to have to wait inside until
he gets here, then I'm burning up.

Of course, the girls know what's going
on.

You told them?

The only one we have to keep you a
secret from is Brandon.

The fact that a bunch of D -list reality
stars knew I was there to take sex

pictures of Brandon DeRossi without his
knowledge worried me.

It seemed risky, but I had made a career
out of risk.

Make sure you credit me correctly in
your magazine.

You know who I am, right?

Yeah, you were...

One of the finalists on Ivy Wood?

No. I was the party girl who slept with
Chad in the hotel room that first night.

I'm Party Girl Marie.

She's in every gossip magazine.

Credit me as Party Girl Marie.

It felt like a giant step backwards.

Spending the afternoon with a bunch of
women whose careers had been made by

banging guys named Chez.

I'd worked so hard to get the best shots
of the biggest names.

And here I was.

hanging around with a bunch of has
-beens.

But then when I least expected it,
inspiration struck.

It wasn't anything worthy of selling to
a tabloid, nothing I could even pitch as

a scandal.

Just an unguarded moment of a former
reality TV star, standing in her living

room, gutted over the fact she had
likely been stood up by someone more

than she was, and for the first time in
over a year.

I was photographing something not for
profit or gain, but for myself.

He's not coming.

What?

He said he'll be late if he comes at
all.

I just drove all the way from fucking
Encino.

Well, I'll call you if anything changes.

I'm going to call Chadwick and let him
know I... Please don't. I promised him

something big and he's going to stop
returning my calls if every story I

doesn't work out. I have to let him know
I didn't get the shot.

Do you know what we could do?

What? We could stage some pictures.

Stage them?

You know, set something up. Something
that would sell so that the day is in a

total bust.

Something like what?

What is that?

Brendan de Rossi got me this.

Instead of flowers, he sends strap -ons.
He wanted me to fuck the girls with it

today.

What? He likes to watch me fuck girls.

If he's not the one doing the fucking,
it isn't cheating, right?

Take my picture wearing this, and then
we can pitch a story.

Alexandria Cherie modeled strap -on from
Brendan de Rossi.

I don't think anyone would believe that.
Come on, people love a crazy sex story.

Take my picture.

Okay, but you can't tell anyone we
staged that, especially Chadwick.

Okay, don't pose. You have to make it
look like you don't know I'm here.

Even though I figured none of these
pictures would be front page, I'm sure

Chadwick could use them somewhere.

And even though the entire thing was
pretty absurd, I felt like I was doing

right by someone, for once.

Because unlike the other celebrities I'd
photographed, Alexandra wanted this.

She enjoyed the attention, and I liked
giving it to her.

Let me take a look.

I like this one.

And I look really sexy there.

This one's good, too.

You see which one I like?

Mm -hmm.

When did you take that?

When you were trying to get a hold of
Brandon.

After the show ended.

Nobody wants to take pictures of me
unless I'm fucking some baseball star.

The only thing worth them being in the
spotlight is not being in the spotlight.

Hollywood's a cool place.

When they edited the show, they made me
seem like this manipulative bitch, and I

often wonder whether or not the world

Leave me like that, but when you showed
me that picture You saw me

through all the bullshit and the facade
Well you inspired

me and do you have more talent than you
think

Who would have thought the realest
person in Los

Angeles would be a reality TV star

See you in the...

Watch that hand.

So beautiful.

um

Do you want it?

Really?

Really good.

Oh.

really pick them

Ooh.

oh my god oh my god

Oh my god.

I'm sorry I'm late.

I didn't think you were coming.

Desi, this is my friend. Brandon Derby
named me. My pleasure.

All the girls left.

Not all of them.

We didn't say that you could join us.

You don't want me to?

I don't know. What do you think?

I have a boyfriend.

I can't.

Well, this is the next time you're going
to be able to fuck a major league

baseball player.

Are you shy?

um um

Oh, my God.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Look at that. Look at that. So good.

Oh my.

I'll go back to the cot.

Oh my God.

Please, everybody.

Don't stop, please, don't stop, please,
don't stop, please, don't stop.

Oh my God, Jesus, we were there.

No, put it back in. Put it back in. Put
it back in.

Put it back in. Put it back in.

Oh my god, my fist. My fist.

It's so warm.

Here,

here, here.

Here you go.

In my entire year working as a
paparazzo, I never walked away from a

shot.

Until today.

Danny had been right all along, and I
had betrayed him on so many levels.

Celebrity culture had changed me. It
changed how I saw the world. It had made

greedy and self -centered.

But not anymore.

Now it was time to cherish what really
mattered and pursue the dreams that had

led me to L .A. in the first place.

The day I officially quit working as a
pap, the breaking celebrity story was

Lissa and Reed Darling's announcement
that production had begun on a new indie

film in which Reed would be playing a
man struggling with his sexuality.

a breakout performance for the action
star.

Clearly, the Hollywood illusion was
still alive and well.

And while they were happily existing in
this superficial world of stories and

illusions, there were others struggling
to accept their own truth that I had

exploited, living with a loss of privacy
and an image that they could no longer

control. People whose lives I'd impacted
by my own selfish obsession with power.

People I barely knew.

That's the thing about celebrity
culture.

The tabloids and the paparazzi, they
control, exploit, dehumanize, and

whoever they choose.

Did she sign the contract?

Oh yeah, she signed it.

Everyone is fair game to them, provided
they make for a good story.
