Wrapping up Scene 122, as Roger continues with today's quote -
Page 52/Scene 122 - Roger: 'My son is better off sleeping.'
- coming up, followed in the script by:
He is aware that Maggie is staring strangely at him. aware that she has never known that he has feelings. He turns and goes into the card room. - She exits up the stairs
|
And when it comes to the dialogue, the descriptions, and the directions, what Roger actually says is "I think he's better off sleeping" - and while I love the expression on Maggie face in today's capture -
- her expression after Roger leaves -
- is even better because she's like what the hell just happened, the man does have a heart - and as we'll see when we do Scene 123, Roger doesn't actually go to the card room (though more on that tomorrow) - and if it was shot, unlike DC's notation, we don't actually see Maggie exit up the stairs (but more on why that might be tomorrow) - as things stand in the film, all we see is Roger leave and Maggie's reaction to him, and then things cut to the next scene in the film...
