Des années après la mort de John F. Donovan, une vedette de la télévision américaine, Rupert Turner, un jeune acteur, raconte son amitié épistolaire avec la star quand il était enfant à Londres. Le petit garçon d'alors ne trouvait pas sa place dans ce monde et a donc commencé à écrire à son idole à qui tout semblait réussir. Sa mère finit par découvrir la vérité et ne peut accepter cette amitié qu'elle juge malsaine. De son côté, Donovan ne s'est pas permis pas de vivre sa vie privée comme il le désirait, de peur de nuire à sa carrière. Il vivait également une relation compliquée avec sa mère alcoolique, kitsch, frustrée et émotive...

00:30Yeah, and you're getting a pony for Christmas
00:31He, on the other hand, had everything
00:35Fans
00:36Fame
00:37Love
00:39I'm the luckiest guy in the world
00:41That's the time around which some people started to wonder
00:44Was it all a lie?
00:49I read a letter to John F. Donovan about five years ago
00:51It was rather foolish of me to think he would answer
00:53But he did
00:54I'm only 11 years old
00:57But later I'll be like him
00:58And we'll act in movies together
01:00Perfect, you made up that story
01:02I didn't
01:03You lied
01:04And you lied for years
01:05I just didn't say anything
01:07Did you or did you not write letters to that kid?
01:11Do you have a pen pal?
01:12Child pen pal
01:14Do your job
01:15Next
01:15You are never to write to that man again
01:20Do you understand?
01:21So why release the letters now?
01:25It's been 12 years
01:26And frankly, have things really changed?
01:29This is about us
01:30As a society
01:31What we want
01:32What we seek
01:33I mean, what should an artist reveal of himself?
01:36And why does it matter to us?
01:37I feel like I've done everything wrong
01:43What if I don't belong here?
01:46What if I've stolen someone else's place?
01:53The question is
01:54How could you have stolen a place that was made just for you?
02:00Ma, can I stay here tonight?
02:01You can stay here for the rest of your life
02:04Dear Rupert
02:23I cannot think of a more singular friend
02:27No one will understand this friendship
02:34Until the day you want them to
