And now for the original draft's version of Scene 21:
And the first change in DC's script's version was only necessitated because of the location change from Willie's cottage to the stable. Who knows why Roger's first line was dropped? And the changes to Roger's other line near the end of the scene might be do to the deemphasizing of the storm - or better still, because they wanted to make Roger look like more of bastard. Perhaps the rest remains basically to exactly the same because they felt those parts are perfect as they are. But at any rate, none of it much matters when DC decided to leave the scene on the cutting room floor...
21 Willie races from the house. Roger stares after 21 him. Then he turns to Maggie. CAMERA TRUCKS into TIGHT TWO SHOT. ROGER You seem to be unable to avoid trouble, Miss Evans. MAGGIE You didn't have to fire him. 21 CONTD CONTD 21 ROGER And your attitude leaves much to be desired. MAGGIE You've been against me ever since I came here. ROGER Then why do you stay? MAGGIE That's a question I'm beginning to ask myself, Mr. Collins. Quite frequently. She starts for the door. MAGGIE I'm going to the old house to look for David. Would you like to come with me? ROGER (at the window) No need to go there. The storm's going to start again. He'll come back before it does. MAGGIE You are incredible, Mr. Collins. They stare at each other. He is speechless with rage. She turns and exits. |
