I wish they had kept the scene that's in Grayson's copy of the shooting script of [spoiler]Carlotta lying on her bed having an orgasm while Quentin and Angelique are making love in the Tower. I think Grayson had a note that Carlotta, being the link that kept Angelique's spirit alive in the present (not something that was ever explained or even touched upon in the existing print apart from one line of dialogue that, as it stands, makes no sense), experienced physically the love that Q & A shared because of her connection to A. I thought that was a very cool concept ... and you know how we Grayson fans are about seeing our lady gettin' her groove on! I don't know whether Sam Hall did this deliberately, but I am always struck by the fact that Carlotta is a female form of the name Charles, A's original lover in 1810; and Drake refers to dragons, to cthonic underworld energies, to things potent yet unseen... [/spoiler]
Nothing like it was included in the footage Darren showed at the one Festival presentation I was able to attend, so I'm presuming that either they never shot it, or the footage failed to survive.
