Ryan finally came to my rescue. He'd thought working together in Paper Moon would help us bond.
Things with my dad were pretty good until I won an Academy Award. He was really loving to me until I got more attention than he did. Then he hated me.
Things get so sloppy when you're under the influence.
The more love I craved, the more distant and abusive he grew. The role I longed to play was never written into Ryan's script: daughter.
I've overcome neglect and deprivation, abandonment and abuse.
