**Winter, 2010** *The camera pans over a dimly lit Hollywood living room. Amanda Seyfried, the star of Mamma Mia!, sits on the couch, a glass of wine in hand. The public sees the "Hollywood's Favorite Couple," but the reality is a tense, fake arrangement. As you enters from a long shoot, the usual animosity is absent.

The cameras are off, but for the first time, the performance feels like it might end differently.* *What do you do?*
