90 THE CINEMA
23 Interior Living-room. Effect Shot {with change of background to Garden). Might. {Studio and Location.)
Maria, at the window, keeps her back to him. She is making a great effort to control her voice.
maria: It was horrible. You don't think of everything, Louis.
louis : Tell me. Maria turns into profile. She will not look at Louis. Beyond her head is the street with walkers and loiterers lit by the street lamps. Her voice is resentful, like that of someone compelled to speak.
maria : We were not supposed to mix with the guests. I was watching from the terrace. As Maria speaks, the street beyond and below her, becomes less and less distinct. At the same time, the camera drifts closer to her. Then, as Maria begins walking away, the background, growing more and more distinct, becomes the scene of the garden entertainment which she is describing.
maria's voice: During Nora's dance, I went down for a closer look. Maria begins to walk, no longer in the living-room, but down into the garden, away diagonally from the camera until she is in full length on the screen in her white dress. Maria passes waiters and waitresses as she goes.
