Continuing to revisit how Scene 117 is scripted:
As far as "yesterday's quote" goes, it was February 22nd's this time around, and "today's quote" is indeed today's, February 23rd's, this time around.
Continuing Scene 117, beginning with yesterday's quote, Quentin's response to the portrait belonging in the room -Page 56/Scene 117 - Quentin: 'I find it distracting. I don't want it around.'
- coming up, followed by today's quote -Page 56/Scene 117 - Carlotta: 'There would be fewer distractions if you went back to the tower.'
- coming up.
And as far as any differences in the dialogue, there aren't any because both Quentin's and Carlotta's lines are delivered exactly as scripted.
And as far as any differences in the directions and the descriptions, there aren't any at this point. Nor are there any notations in DC's script for this section. And what's interesting about DC's script is that there's no indication that beginning with Quentin's quote from yesterday, the camera switches to a 2 shot from a different angle, as can be seen in -
- yesterday's capture.
However, Grayson's notes for this section of the scene reiterate that Carlotta will relate to the painting, by touching and caressing it (although, all Carlotta really does is arrange the painting so that it stands on its side on its own). And also that Carlotta must be clear that what she's saying is important.
As far as "yesterday's quote" goes, it was February 22nd's this time around, and "today's quote" is indeed today's, February 23rd's, this time around.
