Continuing to revisit how Scene 117 is scripted:
And so far as the reference to "today's quote" goes, it was from February 24th this time around.
And when it comes to today's quote from Scene 117 -Page 56/Scene 117 - Quentin: 'All right, Carlotta. What's it all about? What's going on here? Why is my working in the tower so important to you?'
- the difference in the dialogue is that what Quentin actually asks is "All right, Carlotta. What's going on around here? Why is my working in the tower room so important to you?", with the "What's it all about" part being dropped and the "What's going on here?" slightly changed even though both lines are crossed out in both DC's and Grayson's scripts. And speaking of Grayson's script, she has underlined words in Quentin's last question: "Why is my working in the tower so important to you?"
And when it comes to any differences in the directions and the descriptions, there aren't any of either in the script for this section, but Quentin actually throws his paint brush at the easel (though it bounces off and falls to the floor) before he angrily asks his questions.
And when it comes to the notations in DC's script for this section, he indicates that Quentin would be shot in closeup, but again we can see -
- that's not the case.
And as an aside, it must have been an awfully cloudy/foggy day on the day they shot this scene! I mean, you can barely even see the horizon from the window!!
