## History

### Volume 1 (1999)

One day, while Matthew Horner was waiting for the call girls to return from Johnny Lee Miller's mansion, Angelina Jolie, a Hollywood actress and Miller's wife, suddenly entered his van. She offered him $5,000 if he were to enter the mansion and record Johnny Lee Miller partaking in unspeakable acts with the girls. He did the job and got the recording, however, in addition to the $5,000, he also asked her to get him a small role in her movie. After a moment of consideration, she agreed when Matthew stated that it need not be a character with lines and only needed some screen time. The next day, her P.A. called Matthew Horner to inform him to come to Universal Studios in north Burbank with his agent next Monday. There he would sign a contract for an extra with the crew of Girl, Interrupted as she had already informed the casting director about him.

After giving a great scene, Angelina Jolie was happy but her mood worsened when she realized that Winona Ryder was using her position as a producer to sabotage her role by deleting most of her individual scenes. Enraged, she confronted Ryder and questioned why her scenes had been deleted. Winona Ryder claimed that as a named-producer in the crew it was within her rights to remove insignificant scenes, however, Angelina Jolie knew that Winona Ryder was cutting her scenes to suppress her since she was intimidated by her acting.

At that moment, she realized that Matthew Horner, the driver whom she had gotten the role of an extra, was also present. She realized that Winona Ryder was probably harassing him but she didn't care as she had already done enough for him by getting him this job. She was about to leave when Matthew Horner stopped her.

She was getting impatient when he claimed that he had seen Winona Ryder stealing from a library. At first, she didn't believe him but, after he insisted, she sent her P.A. to the library he mentioned to check their security footage. To her surprise, there truly was footage of Winona Ryder stealing a magazine from the library. Then, she had her P.A. pay the library employees to buy the footage and used it to blackmail Winona Ryder. She didn't ask for money but stated that this footage would be sent directly to the media if she ever attempted to cut her scenes or suppress her with her status. She also told Ryder to upgrade Mathew's role.

This incident allowed Angelina Jolie to gain an upper hand in the conflict between them. Soon, the entire crew had learnt that Angelina Jolie had prevailed over Winona Ryder and that Matthew Horner was involved. Her opinion of Matthew Horner had also risen since he had proved helpful, twice, and she even gave him some advice during shooting. She also promised to provide him with a letter of introduction to join an acting school.

A few months later, thanks to the recording of her ex-husband, Johnny Lee Miller, in compromising positions in her possession, Angelina Jolie was able to get most of his property as alimony during their divorce, lest she leak the recording to the media.
