Revisiting more of how Scene 124 is scripted:
Continuing Scene 124:
Mrs. Castle tries to disengage the child.
|
And that's when today's first quote -
Page 62/Scene 124 - Mrs. Castle: 'Please, Sarah.'
- comes up, followed by today's second quote -
Page 62/Scene 124 - Sarah: 'Don't let them do it, mama! I love her so.'
- coming up.
And as far as differences in the dialogue go, Mrs. Castle actually says "Sarah, please" - and Sarah's quote is dropped from the scene, and again, who knows if it was shot or not, though as we'll see below, given the editing, it may have been shot but simply cut.
And as far as differences in the directions and the descriptions go, even though neither the script nor any notes from DC indicate it, Mrs. Castle's line is delivered off screen while, as can be seen in today's first capture -
- there's a close-up of a very forlorn Charles on screen, so who knows if the switch to Charles was because DC didn't like Monica Rich's work in those moments or DC simply wanted to insert a Charles close-up rather than just have him in the background, as he'll be seen in tomorrow's capture (and here's -
- a sneak peak). But Sarah's quote from today is not the first bit of Sarah's stuff to not appear in the film as part of Scene 124, and as we'll see when I post about tomorrow's quote, it won't be the last. Though one thing we do know for sure is that DC did express his dissatisfaction with Monica Rich's work, so take from that what you will...
And as far as "today's" quotes go, they were yesterday's, March 23rd's, this time around, and the reference to the "tomorrow's capture" is actually today's, March 24th's, this time around...
