00:02 >> You are going to pay, I swear to God.
00:04 >> Say what? >> Come on now, I am tired of paying, baby.
00:07 >> You got the gold card.
00:09 >> [LAUGH]
00:12 [BLANK_AUDIO]
00:19 >> Well, my, my, my, look what the cat dragged in.
00:23 See, see, that you girl?
00:25 You look good, you look damn good.
00:28 [LAUGH] I lost all that weight, got yourself a fine figure.
00:32 Change your hair, but, but it looks good now.
00:35 >> Jesse, I need to talk to my mother in private.
00:38 [BLANK_AUDIO]
00:40 >> Are you gonna be all right?
00:42 [BLANK_AUDIO]
00:44 >> You sure? >> I'm sure.
00:46 >> All right, I'm gonna take off then, all right?
00:48 [BLANK_AUDIO]
00:53 But you look good, Cece, you really do.
00:55 [LAUGH]
00:57 She must have heard you talking about her, that's why she came back.
01:01 [LAUGH]
01:03 Your baby girl has come home a woman.
01:05 [BLANK_AUDIO]
01:13 >> So you think you can just put folks out of places they pay for?
01:17 [BLANK_AUDIO]
01:19 I wanted to talk to you alone.
01:21 [BLANK_AUDIO]
01:31 Yeah, well, you haven't wanted to talk to me for four years.
01:35 [BLANK_AUDIO]
01:39 I came back to tell you I'm about to be in a film.
01:42 [BLANK_AUDIO]
01:44 Acting?
01:46 You know how I hate that life.
01:49 So you wanna get back at me by coming in here and telling me some shit about how you wanna go on.
01:54 >> Look, a lot has changed since I left, okay?
01:57 I am not the same big scared girl that I was when-
02:03 >> Yeah, you lost what, 50, 55 pounds?
02:06 >> 57.
02:08 >> Mm.
02:10 [BLANK_AUDIO]
02:12 So now you got a new body.
02:14 Now you wanna be an actress.
02:16 >> I am already an actress.
02:18 >> If you just have to be in front of the camera, then be a talk show hostess, like Oprah.
02:26 Do something like that.
02:27 >> You know, you are the one who raised me up in every ratty little studio in the city.
02:32 I sat in screening rooms the way other kids sit in daycare centers.
02:36 >> It's your grandma's doing, always talking about-
02:39 >> The theater.
02:41 >> Dressing you in them stupid-ass costumes.
02:45 >> No, Lydia. She loved me, that's all.
02:50 She believed in me.
02:55 Anyway, I just finally decided that this is the career that I want.
03:02 [LAUGH]
03:07 Career.
03:09 Now let me tell you about your so-called career.
03:14 They're just gonna have you playin' a whore, or some other variation of a exotic black vamp.
03:22 No, but when they want you to take off your clothes, now then they'll talk about your career, 'cause they're gonna try to-
03:27 >> No, Lydia.
03:29 This is not one of your famous black actress films, okay?
03:33 This is an art film quality.
03:36 >> Quality?
03:38 >> The only quality they're concerned about is the kind that fills up your bra cup.
03:42 >> Yeah, well, I'm not gonna have to worry about that.
03:45 'Cause there are certain things that I will never do.
03:49 You wanna be an actress?
04:02 Don't ever say what you won't do.
04:08 >> Yeah, well, I would gain back all my weight and play somebody's mammy before I did something like that.
04:15 >> Yeah, well, you might have to.
04:17 >> What, are you telling me that all those roles you took, you didn't have a choice?
04:21 >> What I am trying to tell you is that it wasn't that easy.
04:25 >> Yeah, well, you sure made it look easy.
04:31 >> [ Sighs ]
04:39 >> This time I'm not coming back.
04:44 Cece.
04:46 Cece.
04:51 # You dream of showers and the rainbow, yeah #
