Moving on the Scene 30:
30 INT - FIRST FLOOR CORRIDOR - DAY - WIDE ANGLE 30
Shooting through Dining Room doors with the table and center piece in F.G., the three of them walk TOWARD CAMERA.

End of scene.
And as can be seen in this capture -
- the scene is shot exactly as scripted. But what is interesting is that it includes unscripted dialogue as Carlotta explains "Collinwood was built by Joshua Collins in the late 1600s. Of course, there have been many changes and additions since then." And given that Sam Hall once remarked that due to DC's "newfound directorial style," the original cut of NoDS (the cut before the 130 minutes long recovered cut) was supposedly 165 minutes long and that length was at least partly because the cut supposedly included several instances of shots of characters simply walking down long halls before they get to the points of scenes, I've often wondered if that bit of dialogue from Carlotta was added in post production so as not to have Carlotta, Tracy and Quentin be seen to be simply walking down the corridor from the drawing room to the stairwell? But who knows? But what's also interesting is that in this instance it was SH himself who wrote Scene 30 to simply be them walking down the corridor, so he certainly couldn't blame DC's directorial style for it in that instance.
And there are still no differences between the way DC's and Grayson Hall's scripts are written up to this point.
