idyllic setting, warm and inviting. The late afternoon sun
washes everything with a pink glow. Between the water and a line of
lush fruit trees is a flower-strewn glade. A FIGURE emerges from the
trees and walks toward the water. It is a YOUNG WOMAN dressed in a
flowing white dress that swirls around her in the breeze. The pink
light burnishes her hair and causes a gold circlet she wears on her
h
idyll.
Nature, sex,
eroticism in chaste playfulness -
like the water in the fountain:
A transparent dome
masking a statue of a siren.
The youth in white breeches and the girl
with the Cul de Paris play hide and seek.
Their game a dance, a pas-de-deux.
Allusion, yet so intensely innocent
that we do not actually expect
a real kiss.
Instead an expectant glance -
musically accompanied by a new theme,
idyllic image. The little
girl turns in her sleep. A dog barks outside.
CUT TO
INT./EXT. CAR WASH. -- NIGHT
From the peaceful tableau of the sleeping family, the scene
shifts to a vehicle entering a car wash. The image is shot
through the windshield, from the drivers point of view.
The car enters the lathered world of spinning felt wheels
and gushing water.
CUT TO
INT. CAR WASH. -- NIGHT
Inside t
idyllic community.
Well, I hope she likes talking politics.
This war crime will be avenged.
REPORTER: Firefighter robots
have finally extinguished the blaze
which has devastated Sutton Wood.
Over acres of forest were razed
and authorities have closed off the area
to all hikers and picnickers.
The cause of the fire is unknown
but careless campers are most likely to blame.
Morning, Mr. Siegel.
