Current Talk '24 I / Re: And Yet Another New Slideshow
« on: July 06, 2013, 05:15:03 PM »
I forgot to post yesterday that I've often wondered if Julia's response to Elizabeth's comment -
1972 - Elizabeth: 'He's a Collins and a good man, and these
days, that's a desperately rare combination.'
1972 - Julia: 'Oh, yes, I almost forgot, the family that can
do no wrong.'
- as well as Elizabeth's comment itself might not refer back to a scene or scenes that weren't included in the film? For instance, Elizabeth's remark could easily refer to some previous scene with or about Roger (the second half of the remark is definitely directed at him). Though it could just as easily be that both don't refer back to anything and are merely there to help to reinforce why Elizabeth is so willing to accept Barnabas into their lives. And I suppose the only way we'll ever know which case is the correct one is if we ever get to see a copy of the script.
And while we're on the subject of this scene, I love that while, initially, Julia is completely off the rails at her discoveries and, of course, calming herself with a drink, Elizabeth just calmly goes about her business at her desk as if having a vampire living with them is just the most natural house guest in the world. A study in contrasts to say the least.
