Continuing Scene 119:
She puts her eyes back to the microscope. Stokes pauses deliberately.
STOKES - CLOSE UP CU Stokes
|
And that's when today's first quote -
Page 49/Scene 119 - Stokes: 'Julia -- do you believe in the existence of vampires?'
- comes up, followed in the script by:
REV. 4/13/70
119. CONTD.
JULIA - ZOOM IN CLOSE UP
|
And that's when today's second quote -
Page 50/Scene 119 - Julia (jarred, looking at him): 'You're not -- really serious --'
- comes up.
And when it comes to the dialogue, the descriptions, the directions, and the notations for this scene, we don't actually see Julia go back to looking through the microscope after completing her quote from yesterday because what I neglected to mention is that the camera has already shifted to Stokes' close-up when she says "when they were being attacked" - and while it is indeed a close-up, as we can see in today's first capture, Stokes' close-up is -
- more of a medium version - and it seems odd that DC would add a notation to the script that Stokes would be seen in close-up when the script already indicates that to be the case, but I suppose he wanted to be doubly sure that is how it would be shot
- though what is interesting is that Stokes doesn't really deliberately pause before her asks today's first quote - and the camera does not zoom in to Julia's close-up, nor does she appear jarred because she actually looks quite amused when -
- she asks her quote more as "You're not really serious?", as if he might be joking - and when we come to Julia's quote, we're at the start of yet another revision to the script...
