you. are. there!
You walk through a door and unexpectedly find yourself on a movie sound stage with DeNiro, Streep, Pacino, and Keaton, all dressed in late 19th Century garb.
They all freeze in their tracks, obviously in the middle of a scene, and turn to you. Deniro looks impatient with an upside down smile and exhales through his nose. Streep melts you with a cordial, sympathetic smile. Pacino overacts just clearing his throat. Diane Keaton charms you with a knowing wink.
The director, Francis Ford Coppola, sweating profusely and trembling like an old man, is pointedly gesturing at you to say something. Anything! The film is rolling! Time is money!!!
You take one step forward and say!:
