A guy and a girl are watching a movie...The Fly.
-
COUPLE WATCHING THE FLY.
+
'''Guy'''
-
SETH<br>
+
Yes. Yes. (jumping out of seat) NO. Don't go in there, thats the fly. Godammit!
-
Yes, yes… NO! Don’t go in there! That’s the Fly. God dammit! (beat.) It just keeps getting better and better. (film reference) It’s just so good.
+
-
NANCY<br>
+
(a beat)
-
I know. It was great yesterday, and the day before that, and on my birthday, and your uncle's wake…
+
-
SETH<br>
+
I'm sorry I keep putting it on when you come over.
-
(DREAMILY) ... And someday at our wedding...
+
-
NANCY<br>
+
'''Girl'''
-
Seth, “The Fly” was once just your favorite movie. Now it’s eating up your life.
+
-
 
+
-
SETH<br>
+
-
That’s ridiculous, Gena.
+
-
 
+
-
NANCY<br>
+
-
I’m Nancy! I’m not Gena Davis!
+
-
 
+
-
SETH<br>
+
-
Only because you’re not trying.
+
-
 
+
-
NANCY<br>
+
-
Look, I’ve asked some friends to come down and talk to you. [DRAGS IN JEFF GOLDBLOOM]
+
-
 
+
-
JEFF GOLDBLUM<br>
+
-
Hello, I’m Jeff Goldblum.
+
-
 
+
-
SETH<br>
+
-
Holy shit.
+
-
 
+
-
JEFF GOLDBLUM<br>
+
-
That’s right … (NANCY MOUTHS SETH) … Seth, actors now have to go around the country helping people who are obsessed with their movies. The guys from the Godfather do this full-time, while minor stars do it maybe once a year, and of course I, Jeff Goldblum, do it … maybe once a year.
+
-
 
+
-
SETH<br>
+
-
But “The Fly” is the best movie ever made!
+
-
 
+
-
NANCY<br>
+
-
But it’s just a movie! Jeff Goldblum, tell him it’s just a movie!
+
-
 
+
-
JEFF GOLDBLUM<br>
+
-
Yeah, yeah. This world has so much more to offer … like other movies! Jurassic Park, Igby Goes Down …
+
-
 
+
-
NANCY<br>
+
-
No! Things other than movies! [SHE GOES OUT TO DRAG IN DAVID CRONENBERG]
+
-
 
+
-
JEFF GOLDBLUM<br>
+
-
Independence Day, Earth Girls Are Easy, several episodes of Will and Grace …
+
-
 
+
-
NANCY DRAGS IN DAVID CRONENBERG
+
-
 
+
-
NANCY [TO DAVID]<br>
+
-
Tell him.
+
-
 
+
-
DAVID CRONENBERG<br>
+
-
Hi, I'm David Cronenberg.
+
-
 
+
-
SETH<br>
+
-
Oh my God! David Cronenberg (CRONENBERG RIFF) body horror genre. [REACHES OUT HIS PALM.]
+
-
 
+
-
DAVID CRONENBERG<br>
+
-
Look (JEFF WHISPERS TO DAVID "SETH") Seth, The Fly is just supposed to be entertainment, not life ...
+
-
 
+
-
NANCY<br>
+
-
Yes! Yes! It’s just a movie!
+
-
 
+
-
DAVID CRONENBERG<br>
+
-
… as opposed to Police Academy 3, which I watch literally all day…
+
-
 
+
-
NANCY<br>
+
-
No, you’re making things worse!
+
-
 
+
-
DAVID CRONENBERG<br>
+
-
Not Police Academy 4, of course, which was an abomination!
+
-
 
+
-
JEFF GOLDBLUM<br>
+
-
Wow, doughnuts!
+
-
 
+
-
DAPHNE ZUNIGA ENTERS.
+
-
 
+
-
DAPHNE ZUNIGA<br>
+
-
Hi I’m Daphne Zuniga, the actress who replaced Gena Davis in “The Fly II.”
+
-
 
+
-
ALL<br>
+
-
Get out!!!
+
-
 
+
-
DAPHNE EXITS             
+
-
 
+
-
SETH(TO NANCY) <br>
+
-
Why did you invite Daphne Zuniga?
+
-
 
+
-
NANCY<br>
+
-
I didn’t! She just wanders from house to house. That’s what happens to people who get lost in movies. Look! These are the pathetic people you're obsessed with!
+
-
 
+
-
JEFF GOLDBLUM SPITS ON DOUGHNUT AND SUCKS IT UP LIKE A BRUNDLE FLY.
+
-
 
+
-
SETH<br>
+
-
Cool… you really are The Fly!
+
-
 
+
-
DAVID CRONENBURG<br>
+
-
No, that’s just how Jeff Goldblum eats.
+
-
 
+
-
NANCY<br>
+
-
ENOUGH! You people have even more movie sickness than everyone else. Where's the voice of sanity?!
+
-
 
+
-
DOOR SLAMS OPEN. VINCENT PRICE, JR. WALKS IN WORKMAN/MUSCLE CLOTHES.
+
-
 
+
-
VINCENT PRICE, JR.<br>
+
-
Hi, I’m Vincent Price, Jr.! [PAUSE. EVERYONE LOOKS BAFFLED.] Maybe you didn’t hear me. I’m Vincent Price Jr.! … My father made the original “Fly” in 1958. I grew up with movies, and I’ve seen the lives they’ve destroyed. [INDICATING NANCY] This woman is right. You’ve got to turn your back on the movies and look at your real life! Beware! Beware!!!!
+
-
 
+
-
PAUSE
+
-
 
+
-
SETH<br>
+
-
Are you really Vincent Price, Jr.? I mean, you're ... wasn’t your dad, uh …?
+
-
 
+
-
VINCENT PRICE, JR.<br>
+
-
Look, my dad was not gay! I am tired of people asking me that. He was, what you call flamboyant, y'know, campy.
+
-
 
+
-
JEFF GOLDBLUM<br>
+
-
Well, campy is gay.
+
-
 
+
-
VINCENT PRICE, JR.<br>
+
-
No, this was pre-gay.
+
-
 
+
-
JEFF GOLDBLUM<br>
+
-
There was no time before gays. We’ve always had gays.
+
-
 
+
-
NANCY<br>
+
-
That’s not the point! Seth, look at this collection of lost souls. Movies aren’t important.
+
-
 
+
-
SETH<br>
+
-
You're too late, Nancy. I'm too far gone. I'm already starting to transform ...
+
-
 
+
-
NANCY<br>
+
-
No!
+
-
 
+
-
SETH<br>
+
-
Yes. I can feel it happening -- spreading thrugh my veins. When next you see me, I will have become ... Daphne Zuniga.
+
-
 
+
-
DAPHNE<br>
+
-
Did someone call me?
+
-
 
+
-
ALL<br>
+
-
Get out!
+
-
 
+
-
BLACKOUT
