And when it comes to any differences in the dialogue, the directions, and the descriptions, at this point we can't compare the script to the film because this scene only appears in the 129 minute version of the film. And DC didn't make any notations for this section of the scene, so supposedly the camera continues with a 2 shot. Though, as we've learned from scenes in the shorter versions of the film, we can't necessarily blah, blah, blah, blah.
And yes, in the script daydreams is incorrectly spelled as "day dreams" in Alex' line...
Fishing shack - Inside, Ben slugs booze from a jug. He's going to leave Collinsport, he vows. He's dismayed when Barnabas, hastily promising not to turn Ben in, enters. Ben apologizes for hurting him, but Barnabas says he understands. I wanted to let you know you're safe from the witch, says Barn craftily--she's been caught and will be executed. Who are you talking about? asks Ben. Why, Victoria Winters, replies Barnabas. Are you sure of her guilt? asks Ben, disturbed. I am, says Barnabas--the evidence was overwhelming. Ben ponders Vicki's possible fate, unhappy
Were there ever plans to do a beach scene in any version of the script? Or maybe Nancy was going to use someone's swimming pool?
Old House - Barnabas speaks of a missing head, a headless body--is it still missing? he asks Julia. It was when the governess was killed by a headless body, says Julia. They could have been brought together after that, says Barnabas, and if they are, what kind of evil could be along us? In 1970, they had no idea all this was involved--if the head was so important at this time, surely Daphne would have told them. Maybe she never had a chance to learn about it, says Barnabas--they've got to find out more about Judah Zachary if they are to understand any of this, says Barn. Julia asks if that's the name of the man when he was alive. Yes, says Barnabas, he was convicted to witchcraft in 1692 in the town of Bedford--decapitation is an unusual form of execution for witchcraft, there must be a reason for that--you must go to Bedford, he says, find out what you can about the trial, there must be a file of some sort--we must find out--Bedford was an important port at that time--can you go this evening? Probably, she says, but the courthouse probably isn't open in the evening. You must try, insists Barnabas
The latest different graphics -
- have all been made using various portions of this still -
(Click here for a 700X599 version)
- which to my memory hasn't been officially published anywhere - rarely, though, it does pop up for sale on places like Heritage Auctions...
A couple other different graphics using the still will be showing up in the next 10 days (yes Scene 111 is a long scene)...
When do you expect the coroner's findings? Asks Burke. Sometime today, says Patterson, sitting on his desk. How do you think it will go?--you must have some idea--it's your report he'll be reading. What's your guess? asks Patterson. I think it depends on how much weight the Collins family carries, says Burke. They own the biggest house, says Patterson, the biggest fishing fleet, cannery--but they don't own me or the coroner! I'd like to believe that, says Burke. You'd better believe it, advises Patterson, annoyed--no matter how this decision goes, it's going to be an honest decision, and I don't want any trouble from you!
