An American Werewolf in London Page #5
DAVID:
Oh, yes, of course.
JACK:
Right, with Laurence Harvey and
everybody died in it. It was very
bloody.
CHESS PLAYER:
Bloody awful if you ask me!
This sends everyone into gales of laughter. Jack and David
smile politely.
CHESS PLAYER:
Here, Gladys, Tom. Did you hear the
WOMAN:
No, but we're about to.
Laughter.
CHESS PLAYER:
You be quiet, woman, and let me speak.
WOMAN:
(heavy sarcasm)
Quiet, everyone! Hush! Shhh!
Uproarious laughter.
CHESS PLAYER:
All right, laugh then. I shan't tell
it.
WOMAN:
Oh, come on, tell us.
CHESS PLAYER:
No. You've had your chance.
The men all coax him to tell the joke.
JACK:
(to David)
Ask them what the candles are for.
DAVID:
(to Jack)
You ask them.
JACK:
(to David)
Listen, that's a pentangle, a five-
pointed star. It's used in witchcraft.
Lon Chaney, Jr. and Universal Studios
maintain it's the mark of the wolf
man.
DAVID:
(to Jack)
I see. You want me to ask these people
if they're burning candles to ward
off monsters.
JACK:
(to David)
Right.
DAVID:
(to Jack)
Wrong.
The drinkers have gotten the Chess Player to tell the joke
as everyone knew he would.
