Before we get into the way Scene 87 concludes in DC's script, here's how it concludes in Grayson's script, picking up after Quentin's remark that Charles Collins "
is quite good":
He looks at the portrait again.
ALEX Is?
They all laugh.
|
End of scene.
However, picking up at the same point in DC's script we have:
takes from Alex He looks at the portrait again.
|
And following that, DC has handwritten in today's first quote -
Page 37/Scene 87B - Alex: 'He is good?'
- followed by handwriting in today's second quote -
Page 37/Scene 87B - Quentin: 'He was good.'
- followed by handwriting in today's third quote -
Page 37/Scene 87B - Alex: 'He was good.'
End of scene.
And again, blah blah blah, no way to know if other changes, blah blah blah, doesn't appear in any version of the film. Though if anyone is wondering what portrait is referred to in Grayson's version, recall that back in the initial description of the scene it's explained that "Quentin stares at the portrait of Angelique on the wall." Who knows which portrait is being referred to when Quentin takes it from Alex in DC's version? And who knew Alex is even holding a portrait because that fact is never introduced in DC's version of the scene. And there's no indication of any laughing at the end in DC's version.
