Chapter Eleven

A Screen Play

FADE IN
A white title appears on a black screen.
"As night-fall does not come at once, neither
does oppression...It is in such twilight that

The title fades off, replaced by a second title.

EXT. CHURCH - DOMREMY - DAY
FADE UP on ripples on the surface of a puddle. Slow PAN
UP: the water becomes placid, and in it we see the
reflection of an inverted CROSS on the top of a small
church. We move across the little churchyard and in
through the open doors.

INT. CHURCH - DOMREMY - DAY
Utter simplicity --
An old Chinese man, GRANDFATHER, going through a beautiful Tai Zhi Quan form. It is very peaceful and graceful. The form ends with a palm strike towards camera, blacking out the frame. (for possible INTERCUT use)

Hes taking responsibility

This reflects the way

Hes dominating proceedings,

1 INT. STAIRCASE OUTSIDE OLD SALIERIS SALON - NIGHT - 1823 1
Total darkness. We hear an old mans voice, distinct and in distress. It is OLD
SALIERI. He uses a mixture of English and occasionally Italian.
OLD SALIERI

A faint light illuminates the screen. Flickeringly, we see an eighteenth century
balustrade and a flight of
Silent and endless. The stars shine like the love of God... cold and remote. Against them drifts a tiny chip of technology.
CLOSER SHOT
It is the NARCISSUS, lifeboat of the ill-fated star-freighter Nostromo. Without interior or running lights it seems devoid of life. The PING of a RANGING RADAR grows louder, closer. A shadow engulfs the Narcissus. Searchlights flash on, playing over the tiny ship
