Next chapter!

Because even watching the first part of the documentary about Lew Wasserman helped me get through the previous one!

"She is alone, divorced, employed inside the motion picture industry, and she knows that the job she has, secretary, isn't going to lead anywhere but that she doesn't particularly want it to. She likes movies fine, but she isn't obsessed or enthralled by them. Sometimes she wonders, as she picks up the telephone and catches the sound of a familiar voice ('Hold on one moment, Mr. Brynner, I'll connect you') whether they sound as strange to themselves, these people who buzz in her ear all day. It's not that they aren't friendly or polite, it's that even when they flirt, they seem mostly to be talking to themselves. Perhaps this is her quarrel with the movies, why she likes them less than literature: because they are like one-way glass, where fiction is a welcoming room, one that bursts into life the moment you step inside it."
