BEACH HOUSE - DINING ROOM - DAY - (D1) 1 Grace and Frankie are sitting with cups of coffee, showered but not dressed for the day. They look drained. The “now what” question hangs in the air. They’re so emotionally exhausted, they can barely pick up their cups of coffee. Frankie’s phone rings. She looks at the caller ID. It’s Sol. She doesn’t answer it. After it’s quiet for a bit... FRANKIE It’s hard to breathe, isn’t it? Grace just tries to inhale. Beat. Exhale. FRANKIE (CONT’D) So... GRACE Maybe I’ll wash my hair. She doesn’t move. FRANKIE Why? GRACE ‘Cause that’s what people do. FRANKIE I don’t feel like a person. GRACE Yeah. Me neither. (then) Maybe I’ll crawl into bed. FRANKIE That sounds like a plan. Or a hole. I’d like to crawl into one of those for a month. GRACE Does your hole have a bed? (CONTINUED) 1. GRACE and FRANKIE EP102 PROD DOUBLE BLUE 9/8/14 1 (CONTINUED) 1 FRANKIE It better. I’m gonna be in there for a while. Grace, suddenly emotional, inhales loudly. GRACE I don’t know... what to do. Beat. FRANKIE Breathe. * Grace breathes in. * MATCH CUT TO: * 1A INT. GRACE AND ROBERT’S HOUSE - OFFICE BEDROOM - SAME - (D1) *1A Robert exhales. He and Sol are both in bed. * ROBERT * This is the first time in twenty * years I feel like I can breathe. * SOL * I want to climb up on the roof and * shout out “I’m a homosexual in love * with Robert Hanson, who is also a * homosexual!” * Robert smiles. * ROBERT * Okay, well let’s have breakfast * first. And then go to work. And * then not do that. * Sol smiles. Robert gets out of bed. * SOL * How did you end up in my pajama * bottoms? * ROBERT * It was a good night. * 2. GRACE and FRANKIE EP102 PROD DOUBLE BLUE 9/8/14 2 INT. BEACH HOUSE - MEDITATION ROOM - DAYS LATER - DAY - (D2) 2 Frankie finishes sipping her coffee and puts it down on a small table. She sits cross-legged and picks up a Tibetan bowl and a pestle. She rings the bowl, holds it like an offering, and closes her eyes. We can see Grace in the library behind her. She is sitting in a leather chair, with a blue gel eyemask covering her eyes. Hearing Frankie’s high-pitched squealing bowl, she squirms, annoyed. Frankie’s phone rings. She ignores it. GRACE (over her shoulder) He’s going to keep calling. FRANKIE I’m going to keep not answering. (beat) It’s not as satisfying as hanging up on him would be. But I’ll journal about my disappointment later. The phone stops ringing, thank god. Then Frankie hits her bowl again. 2A INT. GRACE AND ROBERT’S HOUSE - OFFICE BEDROOM - DAY - (D2) *2A Sol hangs up the phone. * ROBERT (O.S.) * Just because we’re out now doesn’t * mean we’re going to be gay with a * vengeance. * SOL * I know. * Robert enters the room in a robe with a towel turban on his * head. * ROBERT * (straight-faced) * Now, what time’s the deposition? * Sol starts laughing. * 2A. GRACE and FRANKIE EP102 PROD DOUBLE BLUE 9/8/14 3 INT. BEACH HOUSE - LIBRARY - ANOTHER DAY - (D3) 3 RACK FOCUS TO Grace. She looks down at a plate on her lap. On it is an empty mug with a sad, dry tea bag and a small plate with one lonely, wrinkled piece of Canadian bacon. She sighs. (CONTINUED) 2B. GRACE and FRANKIE EP102 PROD DOUBLE BLUE 9/8/14 3 (CONTINUED) 3 Behind her is crunching. 4 INT. BEACH HOUSE - LIVING ROOM - DAY - (D3) 4 Frankie is eating Wheat Thins. They’re a little loud. 5 INT. BEACH HOUSE - LIBRARY - DAY - (D3) 5 Grace stands up with her plate and mug and heads towards the kitchen, through the pantry hallway. 5A INT. GRACE AND ROBERT’S HOUSE - DINING ROOM - DAY - (D3) *5A Sol walks in from the kitchen, carrying two plates of French * toast to the table where Robert sits, eyes closed. Sol sets * a plate down in front of Robert. * SOL * Okay, now! * Robert opens his eyes and looks down at the French toast, * amazed. * ROBERT * Grace wouldn’t even let me have * French toast when we went to * France. * Sol tips some milk into Robert’s coffee. * ROBERT (CONT’D) * Real two-percent milk? * SOL * It’s a special day. * (then) * Take your Lactaid. * 6 INT. BEACH HOUSE - KITCHEN - ANOTHER DAY - (D4) * 6 When Grace emerges from the pantry, she is wearing different clothes. As she goes to the sink, we see Frankie outside in the courtyard. She is saging... herself. ANGLE ON: The sink. Another mug is placed among the mess. PULL BACK TO REVEAL: 3. GRACE and FRANKIE EP102 PROD DOUBLE BLUE 9/8/14 7 INT. BEACH HOUSE - KITCHEN - ANOTHER DAY - (D5) 7 Frankie is by the sink, having just put her mug in. She heads through the family room towards the living room. Grace looks up, surprised and more than a little annoyed. GRACE Are you still here? They look at each other for a beat. THE DOORBELL RINGS. The two women just stare at each other. GRACE (CONT’D) Who the hell..? As Frankie picks up the phone/intercom on speakerphone: GRACE (CONT’D) Don’t answer it. FRANKIE (into phone) Who is it? GRACE Whoever it is, don’t let them in. (CONTINUED) 3A. GRACE and FRANKIE EP102 PROD DOUBLE WHITE 8/22/14 7 (CONTINUED) 7 AMANDA (O.S.) (on intercom) It’s us, honey. Me and Jason. JASON (O.S.) Jason and I. Apparently, Amanda * didn’t graduate high school. We’re * just here to give you a hug and make sure you’re okay. Okay? GRACE Not okay! Not okay! FRANKIE (into phone) Can you hold on for a second? I’ll be right with you. (then, to Grace) What’s your problem? GRACE What are they doing here? FRANKIE They dropped by to see me. GRACE Who just drops by? You call. You make a plan. You set it up weeks in advance and cancel it three times. I mean, shouldn’t they give you space out of respect for our situation? Isn’t that what we need right now? FRANKIE No, we need people who know what we need, because we don’t. That’s why they’re called friends. Well, I don’t know why they’re called friends... It’s a German word I think, I can’t remember the origin, I took a course... Can I buzz them in now? (into phone) Come on down, guys. She presses the buzzer to let them in. Grace’s phone rings. She takes it and walks off towards the library. GRACE (into phone) Hi, Mal. 4. GRACE and FRANKIE EP102 PROD YELLOW 8/13/14 8 SCENE OMITTED 8 9 SCENE OMITTED 9 10 INT.

  • Being John Malkovich PRESENTED with SUPPORT from Being John Malkovichpaul L
    TREASURES FROM THE YALE FILM ARCHIVE FRIDAY AN ONGOING SERIES OF CLASSIC AND CONTEMPORARY FILMS PRESENTED IN 35MM BY THE YALE FILM STUDY CENTER SEPTEMBER 18, 2015 7:00PM • WHITNEY HUMANITIES CENTER being john malkovich PRESENTED WITH SUPPORT FROM being john malkovichPAUL L. JOSKOW ’70 M.PHIL., ’72 PH.D. When BEING JOHN MALKOVICH, hailed by critics as “endlessly inventive,” “breathlessly imaginative,” and “delightfully nutty,” hit theaters in the fall of 1999, it heralded the arrival of not one but two major talents: director Spike Jonze, making his feature film debut, and screenwriter Charlie Kaufman, writing his first script for the big screen. Beginning in the early 1990s, Spike Jonze (born Adam Siegel in Rockville, Maryland, in 1969) created mind-bending and visually imaginative music videos for musicians like the Beastie Boys, Weezer, R.E.M., Björk, and Pavement, among others, as well as award-winning and widely-seen commercials for brands including Nike, the Gap, Sprite, and IKEA. On the heels of his No. now classic music videos for Weezer’s “Buddy Holly” (the “Happy Days” video) and the Beastie Boys’ “Sabotage,” (the ’70s S E 12 crime show homage that was robbed at the 1994 MTV Music Video Awards, losing in every category for which it was nomi- A S O N nated), Jonze was in a position to make the move to feature films, and was looking for the right script. Enter Charlie Kaufman (born in New York in 1958, moved to West Hartford in 1972), who began his career writing for Chris Elliott’s “Get a Life,” where, as Kaufman described it, his job was to write in the voice of the show’s creators, Elliott and Adam Resnick.
