Hi. Come on in. Vague food crisis.

Good Lord! You're the spitting image of...

Oh, holy fuck!

Anna, this is Honey. She's my baby sister.

This is one of those key moments in life when it's possible you can be really genuinely cool.

I'm going to fail just a hundred percent.

I absolutely, totally, and utterly adore you.

And, more importantly, I genuinely believe, and I've believed for some time now, that we could be best friends.

What do you think?

Sorry I'm late. Bollocksed up at work again, I fear. Millions down the drain.

It's-it's-it's a hat. You don't have to wear it or anything.

I'm actually in the stock market myself, so not really similar fields.

I mean, the wages are a scandal, aren't they?

They're scraping by on seven, eight thousand a year.

I mean, last film you did, what did you get paid?

Bella, can you tell me where I can find the...

2. How does each character react to meeting Anna? Who would you be most similar to? How would you react?
3. Bernie asks Anna quite directly how much she gets paid. Do you think he is being rude? Is it rude to ask someone how much they earn?
4. How many people in your life know exactly how much money you have or how much money you earn? Who?
5. What celebrity would you like one of your male friends to bring as a date to dinner? How about one of your female friends? Why?
6. Which of your friends or family members would be most likely to bring a celebrity to dinner?
7. Honey says she believes that she and Anna could be great friends. Do you agree? Why?
8. Do you think you could become best (or close) friends with someone really famous? Why? What would be the biggest obstacles to this type of friendship?
9. Bernie and Anna present very different images of a career in acting. How? Can you think of other jobs or careers that have such extreme differences?
