Setting up and wrapping the current scene as it appears in DC's script - but just beginning the current sequence, which doesn't play in the script the way it is in the film:
OFFICE
60 INT -FOYER- DAY 60
As Quentin ENTERS he sees Carlotta coming from the
direction of the kitchen.
And that's when yesterday's quote -Page 24/Scene 60 - Quentin: 'Oh, Carlotta, I'm going to start work today. Could you suggest a good room?'
- comes up, followed by today's quote -Page 24/Scene 60 - Carlotta: 'Oh, yes, sir. I know just the place.'
- coming up, followed in the script by:
They start down the hall.
End of scene.
...
And when it comes to the differences in the descriptions and directions, as we can see above, DC crossed out FOYER as the setting for Scene 60 and decided it would take place in the office (Grayson's script still has it set in the foyer) - however, even though the setting was changed, DC's script, like Grayson's unchanged script, has the original directions, which are not at all how things play in the film because, as can be seen in the following capture -
- the scene begins with Carlotta doing work at the desk in the office, whereupon she in interrupted by a knock, and when she turns around to see who it is, as can be seen in yesterday's capture posted in the above post, it's Quentin. But from there things play out pretty much as scripted because the dialogue is similar, and after Carlotta tells Quentin she has a place in mind, she gets up, joins Quentin, and they head off down the hall.
And as for the notations in Grayson's script, some (like how she planned to have Carlotta carrying a fresh vase full of flowers for Angelique) no longer apply because of how the setting for the scene was changed, but things like how Quentin would soon be entering Carlotta's world and how he would be making one more step toward recognition do still apply.
And when it comes to the open folder on the desk -
- it almost looks like it could be Grayson's script. And it would be funny if they used it as a prop in Carlotta's work. But who knows?
And when it comes to the next scene in the sequence, the setting will again be changed in DC's script and things will be dropped. But more on that as that scene unfolds...
On the landing, Liz tells Shaw, I'm just as concerned about Maggie as you are--even more so, I think--but she's getting the best of care. I'm sure she is, says Shaw, but could you please just ask her if she could see me for just a moment? I'm sure she will when she feels better, Liz assures him, and starts going downstairs, Shaw behind her. When Maggie is better, says Liz, I want you to do her horoscope--I've become quite a believer. I'm glad to hear that, says Shaw. I can't believe I ever discounted astrology, says Liz, oh there's a fascinating book you must read, it's in the study, I'll go get it for you. Carolyn exits the kitchen, listening, and joins Shaw. "Why don't you tell her the horoscope is false?" she asks--"Why don't you admit that it's all a lie?" His eyes nearly bulge out of their sockets.
