(chuckling) here you go. thank you. suzanne on film: because we have more spirit and more resources than you. all it'll cost us is money. there isn't enough mommy in the world to further a cause like yours.
2:02 am
(sighs) shoot. that's as good as it got all day. we never got a full take after that. i know. i'm sorry. no, don't be sorry. just fix it. what? okay, let's try one. could i get a level from you, please? there isn't enough money in the world to further a cause like yours. victor: bring it down a little. all right. okay, can you try again, please? there isn't enough money in the world to further a cause like yours. good. okay, let's do it.

2:03 am

(clears throat) take five minutes, will you, please? (suzanne sniffling) (sighs) thank you. what could possibly be the matter? you've gone back and corrected the past, at least in your work. yeah. what could be a better metaphor? it couldn't be something i said. (chuckles) nothing you say to me is as horrible as what i say to myself. and at least it's happening outside my head where i can deal with it easier. trouble with you, you've had it too easy and you don't even know it.
2:04 am
(laughs) no, no. i do know it. you're not gonna get a lot of sympathy from anybody. that's the trouble. you know how many people would give their right arm to be in show business, to lead the kind of life that you lead? i know, but the trouble is, i can't feel my life. i can't feel it. i see it all around me and i know that so much of it is good, but i just take it the wrong way. it's like this thing with my... my mother. i know that she does all of this stuff because she loves me, but i just can't believe it. and other stuff. i don't know what's happening with your mother. maybe she'll stop mothering you when you grow up. (chuckles) you don't know my mother. i don't know your mother, but i know you, and i know you could make a mother out of anybody. look. your mother did it to you, and her mother did it to her, and back and back and back all the way to eve.
2:05 am
at some point you stop it and you just say, "screw it. i start with me." did you just make that up? (chuckles) well, i was working on it before you came in. if you'd come a half an hour later when you were supposed to, it would have been better. (laughs) it's pretty good as it is. you just like it 'cause it sounds a little like movie dialogue. yeah, that's me. i don't want life to imitate art. i want life to be art. (sighs) look. look at that. see what you can do? and you weren't even conscious then, for god's sake. imagine what you could do now. maybe i should just go back to the clinic. hey, growing up is not like in the movies where you have a realization and your life changes, you know. in life, you have a realization,
2:06 am
and your life changes a month or so later. (chuckles) so i just have to wait a month. well, it depends on the realization. some of them you only have to wait a couple of weeks, maybe. ooh. look, you're much better out here coping than you are in a clinic giving up. because you're gonna be out here eventually coping anyway. so why don't you start now? anyway, you can't go back in the hospital. i've got a job for you. you wouldn't be ashamed to work with me again? well, it doesn't start for a couple of months, so you have plenty of time for your realization, to grow up, leave your mother. thank you, god.
2:07 am

"assign blame." (cackles) come on. just what do you think you're doin', young lady?
2:09 am
i'm moving you out to the waiting room. well, there's no need to shove! i'm goin'! you know what you need? a good pop on the butt like i used to give your mother! yap, yap, yap, yap, yap, yap, yap, yap, yap, yap, yap. if i thought i made you feel like that, i would kill myself. don't say that even in jest, ma, particularly when you're in a hospital. people might take it the wrong way. (chuckles) i suppose she means well. yeah. she sounds like that voice in your head that tells you you can't do anything. yeah. it's true, isn't it? where did you go to? looping. but i shouldn't have left like that. i'm sorry. you don't really think i don't want you to do well, do you, dear? hmm? no, ma. you were right about that guy.
2:10 am
i'm right about your doing that music video, too. (snoring) just wait and see. that's where your big success will come from. oh. it's blood. blood on my wig, on my clothes. all my makeup's come off. do i have any eyebrows left? well, some, i think. they're not all rubbed off. i hate not having eyebrows. i know. ever since the studio shaved them off, and they never grew back. come on. let's put some makeup on you now. makeup? you less mad at me now? i've always been less mad at you, mama. do you remember when i was a little girl and you always used to write notes to the school saying, "please excuse suzanne from her morning classes "as she has insomnia and needs to get some sleep?"
2:11 am
(chuckles) when you were sick, i'd sing you that little song too. both: ♪ little drops of water ♪ little grains of sand ♪ make the mighty ocean ♪ and the pleasant land you know, dear? hmm? (sighs) i think i'm, um... i think i'm sort of jealous of you. and that is because... well, it being your turn and all.
2:12 am

(groans) (sniffles) oh, dear. (clicking tongue) look at this. you know, i don't mind getting old. i never thought i'd live this long, anyway. what i do mind is looking old.
