American Madness Page #5

CHARLIE:

Say pal, did you ever hear of a

Depression?

MATT:

Aw, nerts!

Charlie arrives at his cage. CAMERA STOPS with them.

CHARLIE:

Come over and see us sometime.

CAMERA CONTINUES TO FOLLOW Matt as he continues on to his

cage, muttering half to himself.

MATT:

I'm not asking you to pay off the

Depression. I'm only asking you

for ten bucks!

Another teller is busy in the cage next to him. Matt

addresses him, referring to Charlie.

MATT:

That mug reminds me of a guy with

his second dollar.

TELLER:

Yeah, what did he do with his first

one?

MATT:

Bought himself a pocketbook!

The teller laughs heartily.

15. MED. SHOT

THE CAMERA PICKS UP Helen as she crosses the main floor of

the bank, reaches Matt's teller window and pushes it open.

MATT:

Hello, Helen!

HELEN:

(conspiratorially)

Matt, come here!

MATT:

Why?

HELEN:

Come here, honey!

He leans over, and she gives him a quick kiss.

MATT:

Hey, look out, somebody's likely

to see us!

HELEN:

(already walking

away)

Oh, is that so?

She quickly kisses him again, crosses back, and takes the

grand stairs up to the outer office of the bank president

as Matt watches with a grin.

INT. MAIN FLOOR OF BANK - FULL SHOT

Just then, a group of five or six important-looking men

enter scene on the way to the conference room. One of the

men looks towards Helen's desk.

17. MED. SHOT

On Helen and a secretary standing next to her.
