Moving through the next two scenes in the sequence:
108 THE GREENHOUSE - WIDE ANGLE - ALEX' P.O.V. 108
The greenhouse is at least a thousand yards away. However, there is unmistakenly a girl in a long period dress strolling leisurely toward its entrance. She is too far away to identify. She moves so smoothly, it almost looks like she is floating.
ALEX - CLOSE-UP
as he calls to her.

And that's when today's first quote -
Page 48/Scene 108 - Alex: 'Hey! You!'
- comes up, followed by the script continuing with:
THE FIGURE - ALEX' P.O.V.
as it disappears into the structure.
109 ALEX FROM INSIDE THE GREENHOUSE 109
as he peddles his bike TOWARD CAMERA. He dismounts at the door and looks inside.
|
And that's when today's second quote -
Page 48/Scene 109 - Alex: 'Hello!'
- comes up, followed by the script continuing with:
He gets no answer so he crosses in, coming to CAMERA and a LOW ANGLE CLOSE-UP. He looks around -- sees no one.
|
And that's when today's third quote -
Page 48/Scene 109 - Alex: 'Is anybody here?'
- comes up, followed by the script continuing with:
When he still gets no answer, he finally turns and starts toward the door, as the wind, which had been nothing but a gentle breeze, suddenly increases in volume. Then there is the SOUND OF SPLINTERING WOOD directly above his head. He looks up.
109 CONTD CONTD 109
THE ROOF - ALEX' P.O.V.
An entire section of the glass roof suddenly gives way and comes crashing down.
ALEX - HIGH ANGLE
as falling backward, he is just able to avoid disaster.

And so far as any differences in the dialogue go, in Scene 108 Alex actually calls out an unscripted "Hello there!" as the figure disappears into the greenhouse - and in Scene 109 as he is seen from inside the greenhouse as he peddles his bike, Alex calls out another "Hello there!" rather than the simply scripted "Hello!" - and Alex calling out "Is anybody here?" after he looks around inside the greenhouse is dropped in the film.
And so far as any differences in the directions and descriptions go, as can be seen in the following capture -
- Scene 109 actually begins with a wide high angle long shot of Alex peddling his bike toward the greenhouse before he's seen shot from inside the greenhouse -
- as can be seen in today's second capture in the slideshow - and when Alex enters the greenhouse to look around, he isn't seen in a low angle close-up but rather a normal medium shot as well as a wide angle long shot, as can be seen in the following two captures -
- and it isn't until the point where he might have asked if anybody is there, as can be seen in today's Cut/trimmed sequence graphic -
- that Alex is seen in close-up, though it's not shot from a low angle - and we don't see Alex shot from a high angle and he actually runs from -
- rather than falls backward to escape the falling glass of the roof.
