Years ago you had worked with Norma Desmond...You were both young then...seventeen year old somethings thrilled to be on a movie set. Her the star...and you manning the spotlights from up above...Lighting a goddess...
You were sad to see her go...but unlike you she easily aged out of her work at the studio. You stayed up in the rafters, lighting the sets and manning spotlights...That sweet young starlet always in the back of your mind...
So when about twenty years later...you heard she was in the studio...speaking with Mr De Mille about a possible comeback...you couldn't help but see her. You called down to her like you used to all those years ago. She grinned up at you, her eyes bright and youthful even now. "Oh darling...is that you up there?" When you confirm its still you up in the dark rafters and when you suggest getting a good look at her she laughs as you position your spot light to her like you've done a billion times. She smiles, tenderly.
"Go on darling..."
