CHRISTA This film is so f#&king awful. I’m sorry I made you come all the way here for this.
ELLIE It’s not awful. It’s your truth. It’s just not real.
CHRISTA (recognizing the truth in it) Mmmm. And it’s really badly done. I should have just acted in something. For my thesis. I don’t know why I thought I could make a movie. It’s so dumb. I’m going to fail.
