A-13 EXT. DIETRICHSON HOME - ENTRANCE DOOR
Neff rings the bell again and waits. The door opens. A maid,
about forty-five, rather slatternly, opens the door.
NEFF:
Mr. Dietrichson in?
MAID:
Who wants to see him?
NEFF:
The name is Neff. Walter Neff.
MAID:
If you're selling something --
NEFF:
Look, it's Mr. Dietrichson I'd like
to talk to, and it's not magazine
subscriptions.
He pushes past her into the house.
A-14 HALLWAY - DIETRICHSON HOME
Spanish craperoo in style, as is the house throughout. A
wrought-iron staircase curves down from the second floor. A
fringed Mexican shawl hangs down over the landing. A large
tapestry hangs on the wall. Downstairs, the dining room to
one side, living room on the other side visible through a
wide archway. All of this, architecture, furniture,
decorations, etc., is genuine early Leo Carrillo period.
Neff has edged his way in past maid who still holds the door
open.
MAID:
Listen, Mr. Dietrichson's not in.
NEFF:
How soon do you expect him?
MAID:
He'll be home when he gets here, if
that's any help to you.
At this point a voice comes from the top of the stairs.
VOICE:
What is it, Nettie? Who is it?
Neff looks up.
A-15 UPPER LANDING OF STAIRCASE - (FROM BELOW)
Phyllis Dietrichson stands looking down. She is in her early
thirties. She holds a large bath-towel around her very
appetizing torso, down to about two inches above her knees.
She wears no stockings, no nothing. On her feet a pair of
high-heeled bedroom slippers with pom-poms. On her left ankle
a gold anklet.
MAID'S VOICE
It's for Mr. Dietrichson.
PHYLLIS:
(Looking down at Neff)
I'm Mrs. Dietrichson. What is it?
A-16 SHOOTING DOWN FROM UPPER LANDING
Neff looks up, takes his hat off.
NEFF:
How do you do, Mrs. Dietrichson. I'm
Walter Neff, Pacific All-Risk.
A-17 PHYLLIS
PHYLLIS:
Pacific all-what?
A-18 NEFF
NEFF:
Pacific All-Risk Insurance Company.
It's about some renewals on the
automobiles, Mrs. Dietrichson. I've
been trying to contact your husband
for the past two weeks. He's never
at his office.
A-19 PHYLLIS
PHYLLIS:
A-20 NEFF
NEFF:
The insurance ran out on the
fifteenth. I'd hate to think of your
getting a smashed fender or something
while you're not fully covered.
A-21 PHYLLIS
She glances over her towel costume.
PHYLLIS:
(With a little smile)
Perhaps I know what you mean, Mr.
Neff. I've just been taking a sun
bath.
