Thora and Thessaly



Thessaly :
Well now, I didn't know you two were friends — 

Well, we're fixin
to be friendly


Thessaly :
Fixing to Be Friendly” —
That can be my column-headline 


Tilda Swinton :
I play Thora and Thessaly
who are identical twins  — 

Eddie :
What kind of name 
is ‘Thora’, anyway?

Thora :
It’s a name that NINETEEN 
million readers TRUST —

Tilda Swinton :
 For being twins
people don't know who 
they're talking to —
which is weird.

Thessaly :
Hello Eddie —

Eddie Mannix :
Thessaly, yeah —
I just saw your…. 
….oh never mind.

Tilda Swinton :
They’re Cultural commentators —

Thora :
I'm NOT a GOSSIP-columnist!

Tilda Swinton :
Each is a thorn in 
each other side 

Thora
Don’t confuse me 
with my sister!

Tilda Swinton :
They definitely do compete 
for Stories

Thessaly :
That cow - she wouldn't 
know a news story if it 
bit her on the posterior.

Tilda Swinton :
When you read about it this Time
and The Power they had….
the ways in which 
they ruled — certainly the 
public face of The Studios 
— and then you hear about 
what they were 
covering-up underneath : 
it was pretty wild

Thora :
We all know about 
The Womanising and 
The Drinking-jags and those 
trips to San Berdoo… 

Tilda Swinton 
But Dirt is good for them, 
you want The Dirt
because they want to have something to print

Thessaly :
I'd like to know what 
The Hell is going on here

TWENTY-million readers 
want The Truth, Eddie.

Eddie Mannix :
Truth, yeshmm.
