-
Oh, Cecil Osborne.
-
Cecil Osborne finally committed,
-
and he's soaking me
for a million bucks.
-
I don't care because
he's great with actors.
-
Cleopatra is your first movie,
and I don't want anything
-
but the best for you,
sweetheart.
-
What's wrong?
-
Nothing, Curtis. I guess I never
thought it would really happen.
-
You made it happen.
-
I mean,
you are the queen of disco.
-
Maybe I'm just tired.
-
Good.
-
You got your interviews
and your photo shoot with Vogue
-
and private meetings
by the pool.
-
You think I'm stupid?
-
When were you gonna tell me?
-
I'm sorry, Curtis.
-
I know I should
have talked to you.
-
It's just that this
part is perfect.
-
It's exactly the kind of
movie I should be making.
-
Curtis, baby, nobody knows
music the way you do.
-
It's in your blood.
But movies are different.
-
Do you know why I chose
you to sing lead?
-
Because your voice
has no personality.
-
No depth.
Except for what I put in it.
-
See, nobody knows you like I do.
-
Well, they offered me the part,
and I'm taking it.
-
You read contracts
or are you just spraying?
-
You can't even take a shit
and wipe your own ass
-
unless I say it's okay.
-
Well, I'll get myself a lawyer.
-
What do you think they gonna do,
huh?
-
You think them honkies
-
gonna wait around while you
try to drag me into court?
-
Forget about it. It's over.
-
[thunder]
-
Listen, I don't want
those men handling you.
-
Because they don't know how.
-
Deena,
-
I forgive you.
-
[soft music playing]
-
Curtis will
always be here for you.
