CLOSER

After years of infidelity, Natalie Portman and and Jude Law lay in a bed together in a hotel room after getting back together for the last time. They are laying in bed and Jude opens with questions. He knows what Alice has done. "So he came to the club, watched you strip. You had a little chat and that was it?" "Yes," Alice replied. Jude replied with "I'm in love with you. You're safe. You had every right. Just tell me the truth." "Nothing happened," replied Alice. Jude gets up. "Where are you going?" "I'm getting cigarettes," replied Jude. "And when i get back, please tell me the truth. I'm addicted to it. Without it, we are animals." Jude leaves and Natalie stays in bed. He makes it half way down the stairs, decides to come back. He steals a rose from a stranger's door and returns. He walks into the room where Natalie is still laying. Before he can say anything Natalie opens up. "I don't love you anymore." Jude asks,"Since when?" "Now. Just now," says Natalie. "I don't want to lie. And i can't tell the truth so... it's over." Jude pleads with Natalie."It doesn't matter. I love you. None of it matters." "Too late. I don't love you anymore. goodbye." "And here's the truth so now you can hate me. Larry, "f***** me all night. I enjoyed it. I came. I prefer you. Now go." Jude is silent for a second and then replies "I knew that." "He told me." Alice looks concerned. "You knew?" Jude steps away. "I needed to hear it from you." "Why?" Jude replies, "Cause he might have been lying." Natalie begins crying. "I would have never told you cause I know you would never forgive me." Jude disagrees. "I would i have." "Why did he tell you?," asks Natalie. Jude replied looking smug. "Cause he's a bastard. He wanted this to happen."Natalie is severely offended "But why test me?" "Because I'm an idiot," Jude replies. Natalie ends with, "YES, I would have loved you. Forever. Now please go." Don't do this alice. Talk to me," Jude pleades. "I am talking, fuck off."
