旅行终点 The End of the Tour Movie Script

Lipsky laughs.

LIPSKY:

(re:

Alanis poster) Can you do me a favor? Can you tell me about that poster over there?

DAVID:

Alanis? I don’t know, I guess I'm susceptible like everybody else. Why?

LIPSKY:

She’s pretty, alright...

DAVID:

Yeah, but in a very sloppy, very human way. That squeaky, orgasmic quality in her voice? Here’s what it is: A lot of women in magazines are pretty in a way that isn’t erotic because they don’t look like anybody you know.

LIPSKY:

True.

DAVID:

You can’t imagine them putting a quarter in a parking meter or eating a bologna sandwich. But her, I don’t know, I just find her absolutely riveting.

LIPSKY:

How’d you get to know her, her music, I mean?

DAVID:

Listening to cheesy Bloomington radio, and “I Want to Tell You” came on.

LIPSKY:

(correcting him) “You Oughta Know.”

DAVID:

What?

29.

LIPSKY:

“I Want to Tell You” is the book O.J.

Simpson wrote.

DAVID:

Oh, right.

LIPSKY:

Wouldn’t it be great if O.J. Simpson sang “You Oughta Know” and Alanis Morissette wrote a book about not killing two people?

They laugh. Lipsky is pleased to make David laugh.

DAVID:

If somehow this whole fuss could get me even like a five-minute cup of tea with her...

LIPSKY:

Why don’t you put out feelers, see if she’d be willing to meet you?

DAVID:

You serious? I would never do that.

LIPSKY:

Why not?

DAVID:

I’d be too terrified. Why, you would do that?

LIPSKY:

If I were you? Why not?

DAVID:

A date with Alanis Morissette? What would I say to her? “Hello, Miss Morissette. What is it like to be you?” (gruff voice) “I don’t know - shut up. And get the f*** away from me.”
