What's your current movie about, Mr. Newman? Talking bears?
Yes.
A daring Neorealist foray into Jellystone Park? Does that fulfill your promise as an artist?
No!
Heidi Ellison was keeping you from fulfilling that promise, wasn't she?
Not just her. Do you know what kinda crap they wanted me to make?
But especially her. She could've let you make Madame Bovary, couldn't she?
Yes!
But she didn't, did she?
She gave me a choice. The bears or a picture about a dog who's granted three wishes. I couldn't believe it!
You couldn't believe what, Mr. Newman?
I had an actress, a bankable actress, who was attached to Bovary. But Heidi gives her $12,000,000 to do an asteroid movie instead, because our marriage didn't work out! [jumps out of his seat and raises his sword] That vindictive bitch! I could've made something!
