- and last time around I didn't share it because I completely forgot I have it. To my knowledge it was only officially published once and that was in TV Star Parade.
And once again we get a still that is different from how the scene is shot in the film:
- As can be seen in the following screen caps, at no point in the film do Kate Jackson, David Selby and Grayson Hall appear lined up in the order that they do in the still.
- Quentin wears his jacket in the still yet, quite obviously, he throws it over his shoulder in the actual scene.
- Carlotta caresses the locket in the still, yet she never does so in this section of the actual scene.
- And Carlotta raises her right, not her left arm.

Maggie finds the door to Angelique's room locked and rattles the knobs. Quentin is that you? she asks, please! The music stops. Julia comes to her--what's wrong? she asks. There was music was playing in that room, says Maggie, and the doors were locked! She's verging on hysteria when she sees the doors are opening now. What music? Julia asks. The music Bruno used to play for Angelique, says Maggie...you must have heard it, someone was playing the music--the doors were locked, and they wouldn't let me in. She turns and sees the doors ARE open. They were locked! She screams, they were! They find no one at the piano. It can't be! wails Maggie, there was somebody sitting there playing the piano and those doors were locked, I'm not going mad, I'm not!

33 INT - GALLERY - DAY 33
QUENTIN - TRACY - CARLOTTA
as Quentin examines the various portraits.
and that's when today's quote -Page 11/Scene 33 - Quentin: 'I have a terrible feeling my ancestors would never have bought my work.'
comes up.
...
And there are still no differences between the way DC's and Grayson Hall's scripts are written up to this point.
...Page 11/Scene 33 - Tracy (at the window): 'His paintings are very abstract.'
...
And it's still the case that there aren't any differences between the way DC's and Grayson Hall's scripts are written up to this point.
...Page 11/Scene 33 - Carlotta: 'How interesting.'
...
And it's still the case that there aren't any differences between the way DC's and Grayson Hall's scripts are written up to this point. ...

He is at the portrait of Angelique.
And that's when yesterday's quote -Page 11/Scene 33 - Quentin: 'Is this one of the family?'
- comes up, followed by today's quote -Page 11/Scene 33 - Carlotta: 'That's Angelique Collins. She died in 1810.'
- coming up, followed by the script continuing with:
TRACY
She's beautiful.
Quentin stares at it. ...
And it's still the case that there aren't any differences between the way DC's and Grayson Hall's scripts are written up to this point. However, both DC's and Grayson's scripts have some notations that we'll get into below.
And as for any differences in the dialogue, the first notation in DC's script has the word "this" crossed out in Quentin's dialogue and replaces it with "that", but neither word is used in the film because what Quentin actually asks is "Is she one of the family?" - and another dialogue notation in DC's as well as in Grayson's script is adding "Yes, it is" to Carlotta's dialogue, though what Carlotta actually says is "Yes, she is. She's Angelique Collins", and I love how she spells the year out completely by saying "She died in Eighteen Hundred and Ten" - ...
... Quentin isn't actually at the portrait of Angelique before he asks if she's one of the family because he smiles, nods toward it, and begins walking toward it just before he asks - and DC's script has a notation that Quentin is next to it when he asks, but in the film we don't actually see Quentin when he asks because he's off screen with, as can be seen in yesterday's capture -
- a shot of only the portrait on screen - and similarly, even though DC has a notation that Carlotta will be shot in close-up while she explains about the portrait, as can be seen in today's capture -
- what's on screen is a tight shot of Angelique's face in the portrait - and DC's script also has a notation that after Carlotta indicates the woman in the portrait is a member of the family, Carlotta will hold the rest of her lines until Quentin gets to the portrait - but while there is a slight pause in the way Carlotta delivers her lines, given that it's only the portrait that's seen on screen, we obviously have no idea if Quentin is at the portrait or not - and Grayson's script has a notation about the locket Carlotta is wearing, and as can be seen in the following capture (which is cropped and enlarged from the actual moment on screen) -
- Carlotta is indeed toying with it (though no one has yet to know the significance of that act) - and Grayson's script also has a notation that Carlotta is "enjoying" Quentin and Tracy's reactions to the portrait, and as can also be seen in the above capture, that's certainly the case (but again, with no one yet knowing the significance of that (nor the significance of the vase of yellow daffodils under the portrait)) - and DC's last notation on this bit of the script says that Tracy crosses to the portrait, however, she doesn't actually because, as can also be seen in the above capture, she's simply turned to look at it while standing in the same spot in the room that she's been in since Scene 33 started.
...
Quentin stares at it. Tracy moves to the window.
And that's when today's quote -Page 11/Scene 33 - Tracy: 'Every room I've been in, I've kept thinking - oh, this is where I'll spend most of my time. But this is it! The view's incredible.'
- comes up, followed by the script continuing with:
CARLOTTA
I've prepared a salad for supper.
Shall I serve it here?
33 CONTD CONTD 33
TRACY
Oh, yes - would you?
Quentin stares at it. ...
And yes, while it's still the case that there aren't any differences between the way DC's and Grayson Hall's scripts are written up to this point, both DC's and Grayson's scripts have some notations that we'll get into below.
... - and the notation in Grayson's script is that she crosses out the word "supper" in Carlotta's dialogue and replaces it with "dinner," as in "I've prepared a salad for dinner" - ...
And so far as any differences in the directions and descriptions go, DC's script has a notation that Tracy's lines about the Gallery being her favorite room begin "on the cross," and while that's technically true, in the film she doesn't actually cross to any window because what she does do, as can be seen in today's capture -
- is cross to a nearby table, pick up a book ..., and delivers her lines - however, the "The view is really incredible" part of it is delivered off screen because, as we can see in the following capture, what we actually see on screen is that the camera trucks in on -
- an extreme close-up of Quentin as he stares at Angelique's portrait as if mesmerized by it (the view that's captured him is obviously not the one outside ) - and what's interesting about the shot of Quentin remaining on screen for the duration of everything else that follows in the parts of the Scene 33 that are covered in this post, DC's script actually contains a notation that Tracy is supposed to turn from the window to Carlotta and then cross to the table as she answers Carlotta regarding serving the salad, but obviously none of that is seen on screen, plus the last we see Tracy before Quentin's close-up, she's already standing at the table (and as we'll see from a capture for the next post, she'll still be standing there).
...
Carlotta smiles and nods. She EXITS as Quentin
crosses to the window where he stands for a moment
looking out at the sunset.
And that's when today's quote -Page 12/Scene 33 - Quentin: 'You know...I have a felling that I'll do better work here than I've ever done before...look at the color of that sunset!'
- comes up...
...
And yes, while it's still the case that there aren't any differences between the way DC's and Grayson Hall's scripts are written up to this point, once again DC's script has a notation that we'll get into below.
...
- Carlotta does give a look in Quentin's direction before she leaves (because, after all, for Carlotta the scene is all about Quentin) and she gives a little smile to herself as she turns to leave, no doubt because as she leaves the camera pans back to Quentin to show that he's still looking at Angelique's portrait - and even though DC's script has a notation that indicates that as Quentin is starting to look out the window at the sunset, Tracy is supposed to reach the table and to start to leaf through a book, that is never seen here because 1) the camera remains on Quentin throughout that portion of Scene 33, and 2) and more importantly, last time we got into that she already did much of that as she told Carlotta how much she liked the Gallery ...
