Kungekudala, unyana womrabi waseNew Jersey ogama linguDavid Rosenthal wayengomnye wababhali abashushu kumabonwakude. Wenza izigidi zeedola kwaye wadlala indima ebalulekileyo kwimpumelelo yee-sitcom ezinje nge-Ellen kunye ne-Spin City. Wayemncinci, ehlekisa kwaye ekrelekrele, kwaye abantu ababalulekileyo abanjengoJeffrey Katzenberg bebewuthanda umsebenzi wakhe. Abantu babefuna ukuba kwishishini likaDavid Rosenthal.
Namhlanje, abanye abantu bacinga ukuba uDavid Rosenthal uyaphambana. Sele phantse unyaka ukusukela oko uMnu Rosenthal, oneminyaka engama-33, washiya umtshato wakhe kwaye wayishiya iHollywood, eshiya umkhondo. Uye wazihlukanisa nabahlobo abasenyongweni kunye noogxa bakhe, wafudukela kwiihotele eziphambili kwaye wanika isigidi seedola kubafazi abancinci, abanye babo awayengabazi nokubazi. Wabhala umdlalo onomsindo obizwa ngokuba luThando, oqukethe isiqalekiso esingaqhelekanga. Uthando lukwachaza iimvakalelo zikaMnu Rosenthal malunga nokholo, ukuba neqabane elinye kunye nomnqweno wakhe wokuba neentlobano zokwazana nesupermodel uHeidi Klum. Umnumzana Rosenthal uthe emva kokuba ethumele ikopi yomdlalo kuyise, utata wakhe wamsa kwisibhedlele sabagula ngengqondo, apho wagcinwa khona iiyure ezingama-48.
Ngoku uMnu Rosenthal uhlala kwisiXeko saseNew York. Usandul 'ukufudukela edolophini, kodwa kude kube ngoku ebehlala kwihotele i-Four Seasons e-East 57th Street. Uhamba esixekweni kwaye ucinga ngobomi bakhe, emamela umculo, abhale kwaye alungiselele ukuqala kwakhe njengomdlalo weqonga. Uthando luvulela ukujongwa kwangaphambili kwe-Broadway e-East 13th Street Theatre ngoLwesithathu, nge-4 kaSeptemba, kunye ne-premieres ngo-Septemba 13.
UMnu Rosenthal ukholelwa ukuba ibali lakhe kulula ukulichaza.
Ngenye imini ndandifana, 'Khawume kancinci!' uthe. Kwakusemva kwemini ngoLwesithathu, nge-15 ka-Agasti, kwaye uMnu.Rosenthal wayehleli esitulweni esilula kwigumbi lokungenisa i-Four Seasons. ‘Andikhathali ngemali. Andikhathali ngamandla. Andikhathali ngempumelelo. Yintoni endikhathalele ngayo? ’Uyazi ukuba ndiqonde ntoni?
Ndifuna ukulala ngesondo noHeidi Klum, watsho. Ndandihleli apho kwindlu yam enamagumbi amahlanu okulala, ndinephuli yam kunye nePorsche yam entsha eguqukayo kwindlela yokuhamba kunye nomsebenzi wam wesibini nesiqingatha seedola ngonyaka kwizitudiyo zeTwentieth Century Fox, kwaye mna Ndabona ukuba ndingathanda ukulala noHeidi Klum. Ndingayincama yonke le nto ngoku ndiye kulala no-Heidi Klum… ndaye ndahlala phantsi ndabhala lo mdlalo.
Umnumzana Rosenthal ubumbene kwaye ubomvu, uneenwele ezimnyama ezingwevu. Unamehlo aluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka, kwaye ngalo mhla wayenentshebe encinci, ejijekileyo; ujongeka ngathi yinguqulo encinci yomdlali weqonga uDaniel Stern. Kwincoko, uyabandakanyeka kwaye unobungane, ngamanye amaxesha unomdlandla, ugxadazela kwaye abambe kwindlebe yakhe.
Ndiyakholelwa ngokwenene ukuba ndinelizwi elahlukileyo neliliqobo kwimidlalo yeqonga laseMelika, utshilo uMnu Rosenthal. Ndiyakholelwa ukuba abantu baya kuyiphendula- ukuba bakulungele ukuba nengqondo evulekileyo, kuba abantu banokucaphuka kakhulu yile nto ndiyibhalayo ndiyithethayo. Kodwa ndicinga ukuba kubalulekile ukuba abantu baqonde ukuba ndithetha kakuhle kwaye kuyinyaniso yam.
Kwisithuba seeyure ezimbini ezizayo, uMnu.Rosenthal wathetha ngokungagungqiyo ngezinto ezininzi: malunga nokudana kwakhe neHollywood; ngokusilela kwakhe njengendoda; malunga nendlela afuna ukuzibuyisela ngayo njengomdlali odlalayo. Wathetha ngokunikela ngezigidi zeerandi, kwaye wathetha izinto ezingathandekiyo ngoosaziwayo asebenze nabo. Wabiza uMichael J. Fox uMichael Jerk Fox. Uye wanikezela nokubaleka ukuba nguMongameli wase-United States- kwaye ngalo lonke elixesha, wanyanzelisa ukuba wonwabile kwaye uphilile engqondweni.
UDavid Rosenthal wakhulela eLawrenceville, NJ Nge-akhawunti yakhe, wayengumntwana ophakathi kwidolophu. Wayengukumkani othembisayo, kwaye wenza kwimveliso yamabanga aphakamileyo yeGrisi kunye neFantasticks. Waye kwiYunivesithi yasePennsylvania, waphumelela ngo-1989, kwaye kungekudala emva koko wabuyela eHollywood. Owayesakuba ngumfundi katata wakhe, uJanis Hirsch, wayengumdibanisi we-sitcom egama linguNoma yini na kodwa uLuthando, eyadlala indawo kaJamie Lee Curtis noRichard Lewis. UMnu Rosenthal wafumana umsebenzi njengomncedisi wombhali.
Ngokukhawuleza ndazi ukuba likhaya, utshilo. Babelungile, benobuntu, benobuntu abachitha imini behleka kunye, bebalisa amabali. Ndandididekile ngokupheleleyo.
Umnumzana Rosenthal waqala ukubhala yedwa kwaye wonzakala ngokufumana umsebenzi kumdlalo obizwa ngokuba ngooNesi. Abongikazi batyibilika, kodwa waye waqeshwa njengombhali wabasebenzi kuyo nayiphi na into ngaphandle koThando. Ukuphela kwayo, wabhalela uLaurie Hill, umboniso owenziwe nguNeil Marlens noCarol Black, abantu abalandela iMinyaka Emangalisayo. Oko akuzange kuhlale ixesha elide, kodwa kamva, kunye noMnumzana Marlens kunye noNks Black, uMnu Rosenthal wanceda ukuphuhlisa i-sitcom ye-Laurie Hill co-star Ellen DeGeneres. Umboniso, owawunesihloko esithi Aba bahlobo bam, waba ngu-Ellen. Kungekudala, uMnu Rosenthal wayeyiqhuba. Wayeneminyaka engama-24 kuphela ubudala.
UDavid wayeshushu, utshilo umhlobo kaMnu Rosenthal, uTeddy Tenenbaum, umbhali wesikrini owayesebenza njengomququzeleli weskripthi ku-Ellen. UNeil noCarol babeshushu - abadali abaphumelele kakhulu kumabonwakude- kwaye uDavid wayeyinjengele yabo.
Kwakukho ngexesha lika-Ellen, nangona kunjalo, apho uMnu Rosenthal naye waqalisa ukuba namava kwicala elibi likamabonwakude. Wayeka ukuba ahambe kulo mboniso emva kweminyaka emibini, kwaye waziva ekhathazekile. Kodwa wahlala eyindoda efunwayo, kwaye uJeffrey Katzenberg, ngoku okwiDreamWorks, wacela uMnu Rosenthal ukuba abhalele umqhubi wenqwelomoya uMichael J. Fox. Xa uMnu Fox wadlula kumqhubi wenqwelomoya (obizwa ngokuba nguMax, kwakumalunga nendoda eyaphosa umfazi wayo esibingelelweni), uMnu Rosenthal wacelwa ukuba enze umboniso weHolo yeArsenio. Kodwa oko kutyhilwe, nako. Kwakufutshane nje emva kokuba kuqale ukuthayipha, kwabakho uqhushululu olubi olwenza amaphephandaba. Ngokuka Mnu Rosenthal, Mnu.Hall wamkhwaza: Kutheni ungakhuphi i-dick yakho kwi-esile lakho kwaye undibhalele iziqhulo ezihlekisayo? Umnumzana Rosenthal uthe wathi waxa iinyembezi kwalapho. (Ummeli we-DreamWorks Television kunye noMnu Katzenberg wenqabile ukuphawula, kunye nommeli kaMnu Hall kwi-arhente yakhe, i-3 yoBugcisa boLonwabo, akaphendulanga kwizicelo zokubeka izimvo.)
UMnu Rosenthal washiya umboniso kaMnu Hall. Ngelo xesha, uMichael J. Fox wayeseNew York edlala indawo yeSpin City, kwaye uMnu Rosenthal waya kusebenza khona. Wayethandana nomnye umbhali kamabonakude kwaye bafudukela kwindawo ekwi-89th naseAmsterdam. Ngo-1999, babetshatile kwi-boathouse e-Central Park.
Ekuqaleni, uMnu Rosenthal wayonwabile. ISixeko saseSpin sasibonakalisiwe ngaphambi kokuba sifike, kwaye sasikuthanda ukusisebenzela. Kodwa ngexesha lakhe lesibini – ngoku wayeyimbaleki yokubonisa – wayekhule engonwabanga ngomsebenzi wakhe kunye nobomi basekhaya. Uthe wayenomdla kwaye waphinda wavelisa inkqubela yakhe enkulu kwi-Spin City inkwenkwezi yeendwendwe uHeidi Klum-nangona engazange amxelele. (Ngomntu obhengezayo, UNks Klum walile ukuphawula.)
Umnumzana Rosenthal naye waziva ukuba umsebenzi wakhe awuxatyiswanga ngu Mnu. Fox, wongeza ukuba wayonzakele ukuba u-Fox khange amkhankanye ngethuba lentetho yakhe yokwamkela iGolden Globes ngo-2000. Anditsho ukuba wayeyindlala komnye umntu, kodwa uyazi ntoni? Wayeyinto enje kum, utshilo uMnu Rosenthal. (Umnumzana Fox ebengekho kwaye engafumaneki ukuba athethe, utshilo isithethi sakhe.)
UMnu Fox, owayefunyaniswe enesifo sika-Parkinson, washiya iSpin City ngentwasahlobo ka-2000, emva kwesiphelo esingalibalekiyo. Umnumzana Rosenthal wabuyela eLos Angeles kwaye wathatha umsebenzi ophucukileyo wokuphuhlisa imiboniso yeFox Television Studios. Wabhala umqhubi wenqwelomoya awayezingca ngaye ebizwa ngokuba buBomi bam obuDanisayo, kodwa khange buthathwe. Ubudlelwane bakhe neFox Studios bakhula baba buthathaka, kwaye ekugqibeleni omabini amacala ahlukana ngeendlela.
Ngokuwa, ubomi bukaMnu Rosenthal babuphazamisekile. Wayesele emkile endlwini yakhe. Wakhaba ujikeleza ithutyana ngaphambi kokuba aye kwihotele iMondrian eSunset Boulevard kuba wayefuna ukuhlala njengenkwenkwezi. Ngelo xesha wayesele eqalile isiseko, esibizwa ngokuba ngabaDali, kwaye wanika iigranti ezingama-50 000 kumagcisa amancinci abasetyhini, awayebona ngathi ahoyiwe kakhulu eHollywood. Abanye babamkeli wayebazi kakuhle; ezinye zazo akazange. Abafazi abambalwa babedidekile sisibonelelo, utshilo, kodwa ngaphezulu kwama-20 basithatha. Abanye abantu babethwa ngumoya, utshilo uCaroline Surace, ongumdlali weqonga kunye nomamkeli wesibonelelo owadibana noMnu Rosenthal ebusika ophelileyo ngelixa wayesebenza kwiSky Bar yaseMondrian.
Malunga nelo xesha, Mnu Rosenthal wathi wayenoluhlobo lwesityhilelo.
Indlela yam yokuzikhulula yayikukunyaniseka, watsho. Kuyinyani ngokupheleleyo. Kwaye ndakuba ndigqibe kwelokuba, ndaya kwihagu yasendle.
Oku kwakujikeleze ixesha ebhala Uthando. Ndayinika umfazi wam, kwaye abantu babecinga ukuba ndiyaphambana… abazali bam babecinga ukuba ndiyaphambana. Ndayinika abahlobo bam eSpin City, kwaye babecinga ukuba iyaphambana.
NgoDisemba, uMnu.Rosenthal wathi wabuyela e-LA evela eMiami, apho wayetyelele khona imodeli awayeyibona ibizwa ngokuba yi-Misty.
Ndiyehla kwinqwelomoya, kufana ne-10 ebusuku okanye enye into, kwaye ukhona utata, utshilo. Ndonwabe ngokwenene ukumbona. Kuyamangalisa kancinci. Ndifana, 'Tata, ufuna ntoni apha?'
Kwaye ayinguye yedwa, umile phaya noonogada ababini abangqwabalala, ibhedi enezithintelo kunye nengcali yengqondo enentshebe. Kwaye ndinje, ‘Kuqhubeka ntoni?’ Kwaye [utata wam] unje, ‘David, ulahlekelwe yingqondo. Ndifundile umdlalo wakho. Wonke umntu ukhathazekile ngawe. Umfazi wakho uthi uyaphambana, uyeke umsebenzi. Ungasinda njani? Kutheni unikezela ngezigidi zeedola? ’Kwaye ndinje,‘ Tata, ndonwabile, ndisisityebi kwaye ndithandana nomzekelo. Ndiyeke. ”Kwaye athi,‘ Hayi. Kufuneka sikuse kwiziko lonyango i-UCLA. ' (Ifikelelwe nguMbonisi nge-16 ka-Agasti, uRabi Morton Rosenthal uthe wayengenazimvo ngeli bali.)
UDavid Rosenthal uthe ekugqibeleni wavuma ukuya e-UCLA, apho athi wachitha iiyure ezingama-48 de udadewabo, uSandra, igqwetha, wamnceda ukuba akhululwe.
Ngoku ziinyanga ezininzi kamva, kwaye uMnu Rosenthal uwedwa eNew York, egxile kumdlalo wakhe. Uthando lubiza i-400,000 yeedola ukuvelisa, utshilo, uninzi lwazo uzinika lona, kunye nemirhumo evela kubahlobo. Walile ukutsho ukuba ngubani. Ngeeyure zencoko, kuphela kwento anqabileyo ukuthetha ngayo. (Ngaphandle kwenkcitho yakhe yakutshanje, uMnu Rosenthal uthe uhlala engusozigidi.)
Uthando luyimbambano, umsebenzi womntu, ubugcisa bokusebenza ngaphezu kokudlala, kwaye ayifani nayo nayiphi na into ebhalwe nguMnu Rosenthal yeTV. I-show's cast kunye neqela labasebenzi lilindele ukuba abantu abambalwa banokukhululeka kwaye baphume ngexesha elifana naphakathi kwesenzo sesithathu esinjengestaccato, xa igama elithi cunt lithethwe ngaphezulu kwamaxesha angama-30 kwisithuba semizuzu eliqela.
Okwangoku, uMnu.Rosenthal uzimisele ukutsiba eqongeni aze athethe nabaphulaphuli emva komboniso.
Kukho kakuhle kakhulu kunokuhlaselwa ngabantu, kwaye ulungile kuloo nto, utshilo umphathi kaLuthando, uDan Fields. Uyilungele kuba uyakholelwa kakhulu kwisidingo sokuziveza.
Umnumzana Rosenthal uthe uthathela ingqalelo uthando njengohlobo lodliwanondlebe lomsebenzi, kwaye uyathemba ukuba ngalo mboniso angafumana abantu ababelana ngezimvo zakhe. Ude acinge ukuba inokuba sisiqalo sephulo le-ofisi yoluntu, nakwi-Ofisi kaMongameli wase-US.
Ndifanele ukuba nguMongameli, utshilo uMnu Rosenthal. Ndifanele ukuba. Andidingi kuba njalo. Andifuni nokuba. Kodwa uyazi, ndikulungele ukuba njalo. Ukuba abantu abaneleyo bathatha isigqibo sokuba bayavumelana nam kwaye bacinga ukuba ndikrelekrele kwaye ndilungile kwaye bayakholelwa kum, ndikulungele ukuba nguMongameli. Ndikulungele ukuba ngumtyunjwa weDemokhrasi kuMongameli ngo-2004.
Kwaye ndiyazi, kufana nokuthi, ‘Ngaba uyaphambana? Uyageza lo mfo? ’Kodwa ndiyakuxelela, andithandabuzi engqondweni yam ukuba ndingangumongameli omkhulu. Akukho mathandabuzo.
Bekukho ukuncokola okuninzi malunga noMnu Rosenthal eHollywood kwezi nyanga zili-10 zidlulileyo okanye njalo. Uninzi loogxa bakhe kunye nabahlobo bavakalisa inkxaso nenkxalabo, kodwa bayathandabuza ukuthetha esidlangalaleni. Ndiyamthanda. Siye saba ngabahlobo ixesha elide. Ndimnqwenelela okuhle kodwa, utshilo uJon Pollack, umbhali weSixeko saseSpin. Yiyo yonke into endifuna ukuyithetha. Yeyakho ubuqu. UKim Kimbro, owayengumncedisi kaMnu Fox kwiSpin City kwaye wafumana ikopi yoLuthando, wathi ngalo mdlalo: Andiqondi ukuba ukhona umntu olindele oko kuye. (Kukwakho nemfesane ngomfazi wakhe. Umnumzana Rosenthal uthe okwangoku bakwiinkqubo zoqhawulo mtshato. Ngokwe-arhente yakhe yoncwadi, wayehamba e-Yurophu kwaye akafumaneki ukwenza uluvo.)
Umnumzana Rosenthal ugcine unxibelelwano ngamanye amaxesha neqela elincinci labantu, kubandakanya uTeddy Tenenbaum. Ndicinga ukuba abantu ababemazi kwaye bebona ezi zinto ziqhubeka ebomini bakhe bacinga ukuba uphambene, kodwa khange bathethe naye, utshilo uMnu Tenenbaum. UDavid ubonakala ehleli kunye njengoko wayehlala esenza.
Kodwa i-buzz yakhula kakhulu emva kokuba izimvo ezivela kuMnu Rosenthal zivelile kwiNew York Post 'Iphepha lesithandathu ngoJulayi 29 no-Agasti 6, kwalandela udliwanondlebe lwemizuzu engama-20 kumdlalo weWoward Stern ngo-Agasti 13.
Ndeva ngomntu ukuba mhla wayeseHoward Stern, kwakukho itheko lesidlo sangokuhlwa kwaye [uDavid] wayengoyena mntu wayethetha kakhulu, utshilo uEric Horsted, umbhali wee-sitcom ezinje nge-Futurama kunye ne-Home Improvement, owaziyo uMnu Rosenthal kuba babengabancedisi kuyo nayiphi na into ngaphandle koThando.
Luhlobo oluhlekisayo, utshilo uMnu Horsted. Nangona ezama ukuqhawula umtshato kule dolophu, indlela le dolophu esebenza ngayo, angaqhubeka neli phulo lokutshisa ibhulorho kwaye ingamenza ashushu.
Okwangoku, uMnu Rosenthal uhlala enxibelelana nabadali. Ngenye imva kwemini, ndafika komnye wabantu abamkeleyo, umfazi oneminyaka engama-24 ubudala ogama linguLeigh Landau, kwiselfowuni yakhe. Wayeqhuba ejikeleza iMemphis evenini, edubula i-documentary malunga nabalungiseleli kunye nabalindi ababizwa ngokuba yi-Serving America.
UNksz Landau uthe wayemazi uMnu Rosenthal xa emnika imali. Umhlobo wakhe, uMarisa Katz, wayengumncedisi kaMnu Rosenthal eSpin City. UNks Landau uthe isoka lakhe ngelo xesha lalicinga ukuba isibonelelo sika Mnu Rosenthal sasinzima, kodwa wagqiba kwelokuba asamkele. Uyeke umsebenzi, kwaye veki nganye ufumana itsheki ye- $ 1,000, utshilo.
Ndingatsho ngokunyanisekileyo ukuba ubutshintshile ubomi bam, utshilo.
UNks Landau uthe akacingi ukuba uMnu Rosenthal uphambene.
Xa abantu besenza into egwenxa, ngokukhawuleza abantu bacinga ukuba uyaphambana, utshilo uNkskz Landau. Nangona inokuba yeyodwa ukwenza into ngobunkunkqele, andicingi ukuba kufaneleke ukuba uthathwe njengempambano.
Kwiintsuku ezimbalwa emva koko, ndadibana noMnu Rosenthal kwakhona kwiiXesha eziNne zamaXesha. Ngeli xesha, umfoti wayekunye nathi. Emva kokuba uMnu.Rosenthal ethathe imifanekiso embalwa kwigumbi lokungenisa, siye saya ezimpambanweni zeSeventh Avenue kunye neWest 48th Street kwiTimes Square, apho bekusandul 'ukwakhiwa ibhodi enkulu yothando. UMnu Rosenthal wayengekayiboni ibhilibhodi okwangoku, kwaye wayenomdla.
Endleleni, uMnu Rosenthal uthe unethemba lokuba abantu abavela e-LA bazokuza kubona umdlalo wakhe. Ndifuna ezo fucks zaseHollywood zize kuhlala, utshilo, ngovuyo. Yiza uve- ukuba baneebhola zokuza kwindawo yemidlalo yeqonga bazoyibona.
Sifike kwimpambano yendlela. Apho, phezulu kuthi, yayiyintengiso ende yothando, ebonisa inqindi elikhulu elivaliweyo. Kwicala lalifundeka ngolu hlobo: ISILUMKISO: AKUKHO MNTU uneminyaka engaphantsi kwe-17. UKUSETYENZISWA KOLWIMI NEMIBA YESIHLOKO.
Kuyamangalisa, utshilo uMnu Rosenthal, ejonge phezulu. Iyandonwabisa loo nto.
Wacela ezinye iifoto, emva koko sabuyela ehotele. Ehleli esofeni kwigumbi lokungenisa, uMnumzana Rosenthal wathi kubusuku obungaphambili, wadibana nabazali bakhe okokuqala ngeenyanga.
Ihambe kakuhle, watsho. Imnandi kakhulu. Ewe. Ube ngunyaka onzima kubo, uyazi? Jonga utata wam ebesenza ngothando nenkxalabo kum. Wayekholelwa nyani ukuba ndiphambene. Iphutha elikhulu, kodwa wayikholelwa. Ke, ewe, bekunzima kakhulu ... kodwa uyazi, sihleli phezolo sathetha kwaye ndibaxolele ngokupheleleyo. Ndigqithile kuyo. Andinazimvakalelo zinzima. Ndicinga ukuba ngabazali abakhulu kunye nabantu abamangalisayo.
Ndabuza uMnu.Rosenthal ukuba wayebona ugqirha eNew York. Wathi hayi. Ngaba wayekhe wadandatheka? Ndingathi bendiziva ndonwabile, kodwa ngekhe ndithi bendikhe ndadandatheka, utshilo. Ndayifunda la ncwadi, Ubumnyama buyabonakala. Ngubani laa mfana – uWilliam Styron? Andazi ukuba umhlaba. Bendingazokubeka kolo didi. Uthe wayengathathi naziphi na iziyobisi.
Ngaba wayekhe wazibulala? Hayi, soze, soze, watsho. Kum, leyo yeyona ngcinga iphosakeleyo kwindalo iphela, umbono wokuzibulala.
Hayi, uDavid Rosenthal uthe, mhlawumbi wayengenzi nto, nangona imigangatho yaseHollywood, kodwa akazange alahlekelwe yingqondo.
Ndiyaphila ngokugqibeleleyo, utshilo. Ndiphilile, ndonwabile. Ndinomdla nje ngemibandela. Uye wathula. Ewe. Ndingumfana nje onomdla. Ndineemvakalelo ezinamandla malunga nezinto, kodwa hayi, andiphambani.
Ndifunde udliwanondlebe no-Angelina Jolie… apho athetha ngokuthanda umyeni wakhe kakhulu ufuna ukumbulala ngaxesha lithile, kwaye kufana nokuba, uyifundile kwaye ngenxa yokuba engumdlali weqonga nenkwenkwezi, kulungile. kuye ukuba athethe lonto. Kodwa ukuba wayengumfazi nje othile esitratweni owayethetha lonto, ungacinga ukuba uphambene. Ke ismanga kukuba kokukhona ndifumana udumo, kokukhona ndiya ndiphambana.
