The Pitch Review: St. Vincent
KID: Everything?
BILL: Yes, kid, everything. I like the story. I like the gambling. The drinking. The smoking. I like the hooker. I like the mom. I like the kid. (Okay, no one likes the lawyer, but who ever does?) I like it's filmed in New York. And you & me, kid, this is gonna be great.
DIRECTOR: I'm so glad you're on board with the whole thing, Bill. And you'll have a fantastic, super-talented cast with you on this. I don't know how we got so lucky to get this kid, but he's good. You guys will be great together.
BILL: We better. I'm not making a stupid movie with a crappy kid actor & lame characters. I picked this very carefully, and want to show what I can do. They'll be surprised. My fellow actors know what I mean. Don't you guys?
PRODUCER: They're gonna have to be great, because the story could be messed up pretty easy. You all have to channel that fantastically realistic chemistry, and carry drama and funny throughout the entire movie.
BILL: They'll laugh & cry when they won't expect to. In fact, I'm gonna make them want ice cream.
KID: I want ice cream.
MOM : I want ice cream.
PREGNANT RUSSIAN HOOKER: I want ice cream.
BILL: I want a happy ending.
HOOKER: Shut up, Bill.
