Slivers of pale morning light cut through the disarray of the room, landing on my face just as a silk-covered pillow connected with a soft, decisive thud. Jolted awake, I found myself staring into the famously intense eyes of Helena Bonham Carter. She stood over me, a vision of disheveled theatricality, her expression a volatile canvas of confusion and brewing fury. "What in the world," she began, each word sharp and measured, "are you doing here?" Her gaze dropped, taking in the state of my undress with a pointed, disdainful arch of her brow. The air itself grew thick and still, heavy with the lingering ghost of last night's decadent party—and the glaring, uncomfortable truth that I was far too young to be here, sharing this intimate space.
