These houses all look
the same to me.

That's because they are
all the fucking same!

Is it me or is it
the Telegraph crossword?

Is what you
or the Telegraph crossword?

Getting difficult.
Is it getting
more difficult to do,

or is my ability
to do it lessening?

Probably a bit of both,
Freddie.

It can't be "anal,"
can it?

No, dear.
Not in theTelegraph.

Your handwriting is a disgrace.
I can hardly read this, can I?

Is this the address

Yeah, that's what it says.
It's where we picked him up!

You want some of this?
Yeah. Knob head!

[ Doorbell Ringing ]
[ Mutters ] Who on earth
can that be at this time?

- I'll go, dear.
- No, no, no, no. I'll get it.

[ Chuckles, Sighs ]

I'm afraid you've got
the wrong house.

And how would you
know that then?
I've told you.

Now take your foot
out of the door, or I shall
have to call the police.

Listen up, Major. We've come
to see Stanley Kubrick.

There's no one
of that name here.

Good night.
Who are you?
The butler?

No, I'm not
the bloody butler.

Go and tell your master,
Mr. Kubrick, that we
have come to see him.

- Mr. who?
- Kubrick. The famous
film director.

Never heard of him.

Stanley's been
a frequenter of a club...

what we and some associates run
over in the Kings Cross, right?

He's run up a bloody big bar
bill of 200 quid last Thursday,

and he borrowed 100
in Nelson's.

- Nelson's?
- Nelson Eddy's.

Readies.
Cash, squire. Cash.

It's what the poor people use
instead of credit cards.
Do you savvy?

There's no man
of that name here,

and there are no readies
nor Nelson Eddy's.

- So--
- Ow!

We know he lives here!
Right, enough of this.

We know he lives here,
'cause we've picked him up
from here!

Would you like a light?
Yes, please.

Right. Coming up.

[ Chattering Continues ]

What a wonderful drawing
and such an innovative design.

Good designs are as rare today
as good film scripts.

Please believe me.

Are they?
Mm-hmm.

Would you mind
if I joined you?

Uh, please.

Thank you.
That's very kind.

I've been at the film studios in a production meeting
all day.

I just had to have a drink
on the way home.

Just had to.
Would you?

No, not just now.
Thanks.

May I?
Yes, please.

Are these your designs?

Yes. I've just put together
a new collection.

I'm very impressed.
It's very... original.

Now that is a charming suit.

I'd be very proud
to wear a suit like that.

You must be very successful.

Well, I've, um--

I've got some designs being
considered by a knitwear
company in Huddersfield.

And there's a boutique
in Brighton who are very interested in my jackets.

Oh, and there's a man
in Margaret Street who--

who thinks my trousers
are so exciting.

- He does?
- Yes, he just loves them.

And so he should, my friend. So he should.

- I'm sorry. What is your name?
- I'm Rupert. Rupert Rodnight.

And I'm quite exceptionally
pleased to meet you, Rupert.

Good. Thank you.

Yes, unless there is
another one.

There you are, Stanley.
Another treble brandy.

Thanks.
You are a sweetie.

And I'll reciprocate
this kindness...

as soon as I've
been to the bank...

and sorted out all those
damned stolen credit cards.

It's not a problem.
Honestly.
But it is.

Such graciousness
cannot go unrecognized.

Do you know, I've never
designed the costumes
for a film before.

I mean, any film.

You know, this portfolio
of yours convinces me
that only you could do it.

So I think this is gonna be
the happiest relationship...

I've ever had
with a costume designer.

You haven't told me
the title yet.

It's catchy.
It's called Designer Death.

It's about a male model
who stumbles upon a murder.

And designing his wardrobe
is what I want you to do.

We shoot on location
and at Pinewood Studios.

But you have to be with me

It's a challenge.

But, Rupert, you mustn't
tell a soul about that.
You mustn't.

Oh, no, no.

Now we're working, of course,
very feverishly on the script.

But I have to get you

for our specific scenes.

By the way,
do you have an agent?

No. No, I've, um,
always handled myself.

I used to handle myself,

but now I prefer
letting someone else do it.

You don't always
have the choice, do you?

Hmm. We don't always

[ Man ]
So the band's playing
this gig up in Camden.

This guy comes up to me and starts trying to tell me how good they are.

The he tells me who he is.

Stanley Kubrick,

Stanley fuckin' Kubrick!
Fuck me!

Exactly. Amazing!

So, anyway, we get chattin',
and Stanley says
how he could help us.

You know, help the band.

Who'd have thought
Stanley Kubrick was into
heavy metal then?

He said, "When's the next gig?" So I told him about
this one at the Roxxy.

And he wanted to come?
Right.

So I said we'd pick him up, ferry him out there.

He's got a big apartment
in Little Venice.

That's where we're
collecting him from.
Pretty smart address.

The guy's loaded.

But more important than
that, he's got the contacts.

Well, you see, normally
I'd have this address
in Belgravia.

And what I do usually is the people I was meeting--

very important people--

I'd give them this address,

and they'd come by to
pick me up at a very
specific time, you see?

And when they got there,

I'd be sitting
on the front steps,
pretty as a picture.

You see?

That always worked.

[ Chattering ]

Nothing here

They thought it was my house. Simple.

But then the neighborhood
started to go downhill--

Yes. I'm in preproduction.

- How about an interview?
- Mm-mmm. Do you know why?

Because I never give
interviews.

This is a ring
which Christian Dior
gave to Helmut...

who gave it to me...

and now I give to you.

Thank you.
That's very nice.

You're lovely.

Good night.

Wow!

Come on, Kubrick!

So was that really
Stanley Kubrick,
the director?

Well, I assume
he's Stanley Kubrick,

but I couldn't
swear on it.

[ Billiard Balls Clanking ]

[ Grunts ]
[ Chattering ]

I know you.

You've appeared
in one of my films,
haven't you?

See, your face
is so familiar.

I'm just trying to place
which one it was.

Well, sit down
and buy me a drink
while you decide.

Buy you a drink?
Mm-hmm.

Well, what
do you drink?

Jack Daniel's.
A large one.

Barman?
Yes, sir?

A large Jack Daniel's,
please, and another glass
of mineral water.

Coming up.

So, you're a what?
A real-life film producer
then, eh?

Mmm.

Would you like
a cigarette?

No, thanks. I don't smoke.
But, you know, you go ahead.

Thank you.

So, would I have heard of you?
I mean, would I have seen
any of your films?

You may have.
What's your name?

[ Whispering ]
Stanley Kubrick.

Stanley Kubrick?

Fuck me. Stanley,

you are one of my favorite
film directors of all time.

I mean that. I have seen
all of your films.

I have loved
every single one of them.
Thank you.

This is unbelievable,
an honor.

I mean,
I've seen, uh, Spartacus,
which was brilliant.

Lolita-- fantastic.

Dr. Strangelove.
Um, Clockwork Orange.

Barry Lyndon.

What's it-- Uh, my favorite.
This is my favorite--
Judgment at Nuremberg.

Mmm, yes.

It's odd that you say that.
That was quite a difficult
film to make for me.

Very difficult.
I had loads of problems.

But, of course, it all
worked out well in the end.

Absolutely. Yes, it did.
That is amazing.

That is just amazing.

Do you know what amazes me most about that is-- is that--

you know, that it was directed
by Stanley Kramer.

Not Stanley Kubrick.

Oh, dear.
You've got your Stanleys
in a twist, haven't you?

Eh? Listen, mate.

Let me give you
a little bit of advice here.

If you're gonna come in here
pretending to be
someone that you're not,

then at least do us
the courtesy...

of doing a little bit
of research, okay?

I found one.

Good, 'cause there
isn't a single photo
in any of these Who's Whos.

In this one,
he's got a beard.

Yeah, but he did say
he's "shaved off his
beard off," didn't he?

Right.
Oh. When was this taken?

About 1971.

Doesn't look a thing
like that guy.
Not a thing.

Got a tip off about this Kubrick impostor.

Go on.
And the story
was right up my street.

Kubrick himself
has got a problem here.

In order to get an injunction out against Conway,

he has to prove that Conway is impersonating him.

But to do that, he's got to get some people to stand up in court...

and admit they were conned.

Stanley.
Why, it's bad enough
being had by someone.

I mean, you wouldn't want
to tell the whole world
about it, would you?

I wouldn't.

C-Cooperation?

What sort of cooperation
are we talking about here then?

Full statements from each of you
to begin with, and we'll need
to call you in as witnesses.

Hold on. I don't mind
helping you as much as I can.

But I can't go to court.
It'll be in the papers,
and everyone will know.

Yeah. I can't afford
that either. No way.

They'll think Spencer and me
are a couple of poofs.

No offense,
but you know what I mean.

Actually, I have
no idea what you mean.

I've got a cab office
to run and a corner shop.

[ Man Narrating ] Stanley had called me to say that his son had died in a car accident.

He said he wanted me with him at this terrible moment.

When I told him I could only afford to come for a few days,

he told me
he needed me with him for the foreseeable future.

Here you go.
Thank you, sir.

And even beyond that to the part of the future we couldn't foresee.

Thanks.

He then offered to pay off the balance of an apartment I owned in Marseille.

[ Man ]
Sorry, mate.

[ Narrator Continues ]
Which I'd been rehabbing with two dear friends of mine.

He told me to bring
their bank details...

and he would have his attorney handle it immediately.

He also said his driver,
Manolo,

would be at the airport
to whisk me off
in his white Jaguar.

[ Buzzing ]
He wasn't.

My client, as you know, has
lost many thousands of pounds
as a result of this impostor,

and his standing with
the two banks in question
is in some doubt.

Nevertheless, for reasons
which I think you will
readily appreciate...

we cannot go further and appear
in an action which will then
expose him to public ridicule--

[ Crying ]
for having been taken in
by this con man.

Not even if it means
that it stops Conway doing
the same thing to others?

Mm-mmm.
Not even.

I see.
[ Sniffles ]

Oh, Stanley.

Huh!
[ Sobs ]

I admit it.

I admit it!
I knew you weren't.
I just knew it.

[ Muffled Shouts ]

I'm not Stanley Kubrick.
I'm Alan Conway!

Alan Conway,
one of life's great failures.

Piers, you must forgive me.

All that about having a son who was killed in a car accident?No, Piers.

I suppose that's all lies
and bullshit too, isn't it?
Please.

Please. Piers, I would've said
anything to get you here.

Please, you must forgive me.
You fucked over
my friends in Marseille!

I gave up my apartment there.
I used my savings
to come over here.

My bridges are all burned,
and you-- you ask me
to forgive you.

Piers, please,
you must forgive me.
You have to.

Forgive a disaster queen
like you?
Yes.

No fucking chance.
Aah! Piers!

[ Groans ]

[ Crying ]
Piers!

[ Groans ]
I genuinely need you!

I've never had such genuine
feelings for anyone who--

I've never felt something
so big inside me.

I mean, I've--
Feelings for someone
else so big in me--

really, really--
it's as if I have to try
to escape myself.

Whenever I go to somewhere nice
like New York or...

Benidorm or--
[ Mutters ]

or Rio,

who is the first person
there to greet me?

It's Alan Conway!

I'm only trying
to escape myself.

That's why I have to pretend
to be someone else.

Please don't go, Piers.
Please.

I thought
we had something.

I really did.
No!

Don't.
Piers, you mustn't go,
please.

because then
I'm not bothered
and hassled by people.

Oh, Piers, I've been...

a very, very naughty boy.

Plea--
[ Dr. Stukeley ] This man's
condition is very serious.

[ Groans, Sobs ]
We need to institutionalize--

I mean, hospitalize him
right away.

He requires immediate sedation.
Well, can't you just
slip him a few Valium...

and get him to attend
a day clinic?
If only it were as easy as that.

It's quite beyond that.

[ Gasping ]
Quite beyond that.

There you are.

Mmm, mmm.

Shepherd's pie or
toad in the hole, love?

Why, thank you,
my good woman.

By the way,
do you know who I am?

No, but if you ask
the ward supervisor,
she'll tell you.

I'm Stanley Kubrick.

I'm Stanley Kubrick!

I'm Stanley Kubrick.

I'm Stanley Kubrick.

How dare you?

I'm Stanley Kubrick!
I'm Stanley Kubrick!

[ Chattering, Shouting ]

Will all the Stanley Kubricks
please be quiet
and eat their lunch?

Did you bring it?
Did I bring what?

The bottle, stupid.

You owe me, squire.

[ Window Squeaking ]
Mmm.

Never tasted better.

You know,
you had me worried that day
they brought you in here.

I thought you
really had flipped.

No, well, it's very
good insurance,
you see.

But with my glamorous
psychiatrist backing me,

they would never dare
bring this case to court.

[ Laughs ]

From the moment
I woke up this morning I knew something was different.

I couldn't put my finger
on exactly what it was.

Then I suddenly realized
I'd become myself again.

My real self.
I'd become Alan again.

Well, this may only be
a temporary remission.

We'll need to keep you here
under close observation.

You're such a good person,
Dr. Stukeley.

You really are a good person.
God bless you.

Let us return now
to your mother,

Nadja Conova,
the famous ballerina.

All right,
let me just ask you...

one simple question.

How come, when Mr. Conway
became Stanley Kubrick,

it was always in situations
and circumstances...

where he, Conway,
benefited directly?

Where he was on the take,
on the make.

No, no, no. Becoming Stanley Kubrick...

has cost Mr. Conway
the larger part
of his life savings.

Everyone, of course, expected Mr. Kubrick to be generous,

being so rich and famous, and Alan had to live up to that.

He spent many
thousands of pounds--
most of his life savings-- gone.

Where did you get this from?
From him?

You know, I think you're
willfully refusing...

to see the gravity
of Mr. Conway's condition.

He is a victim
of mental illness.

Dr. Stukeley,

why do you think he's saying
such hurtful things?

Can it be that he
doesn't want to see me
healing and recovering?

- Well, if you believe that,
you'd believe anything.
- [ Chattering ]

It was all bullshit--
[ Phone Rings ]

all oxygen for him.

Everybody felt sorry for him--

took him on his own terms,
as a victim.

What?

He appeared on television.

He even got paid
for newspaper articles.

Sic transit.

Yes, the International Journal of Psychiatric Studies...

has accepted my case
history study of you
for the winter issue!

Oh, that's
wonderful doctor.

Congratulations, really.

But, you know,
I'm afraid I must tell you,
and I must insist on this:

I couldn't possibly accept
even the smallest fee,

unless you thought
it was all right.

Nobody gets a fee,
not even I.

It is an honor
to be published there.

But would my name and address
be included in the article...

just in case anyone
should try and contact me?

Alan, patients are never
identified in case histories.

- They're always
given a pseudonym.
- Oh.

Not much mileage there.

- Sorry?
- I-- I was saying
I understand that.

Now, we must address ourselves
to your last and, might I say,
lingering problem.

[ Chuckles ]
My lack of cash?

No. I was referring more
to your alcoholism.

Oh, that? I've decided to send you...

on an alcoholic rehabilitation
course for four weeks...

to the Rimini Clinic.

The Rimini Clinic?

The Rimini Clinic?
But that's--

I read about that in one
of those magazines I bought
in the supermarket.

That's where all
the famous, uh, people,

uh, film stars and rock stars
go to dry out.

[ Dr. Stukeley ] It has a success rate of 95%.

But I can't afford
to stay there.

The National Health Service has four placements
a year there,

and you will be
one of them.

But, Dr. Stukeley,
I don't deserve
to go there.

It's essential. You're recovering, healing.

That's true.

W-Would I get
some sort of allowance while I'm in there, Doctor?

Hmm. We can discuss that later.

I'll be surrounded by--

by rich and famous people.

I'd be in lockdown.

How will I cope?

Hmm.
