Still Alice Page #4
John? Hi.
INT. KITCHEN
Depositing her keys in a goldfish bowl, she glances at a
small memory board on the wall. No note has been left for
her.
ALICE:
John?
She gets her iPhone out of her bag and texts John:
TEXT:
Where R U?
EXT. UPTOWN STREETS - MOMENTS LATER
Now in athletic wear, Alice runs down the cold street. She
navigates around PEDESTRIANS and MOMS WITH STROLLERS.
EXT. RIVERSIDE PARK
In the light of the late afternoon, she runs through the
trees on a familiar path.
Students and academics are going about their business. A
young STREET VENDOR is passing out leaflets calling, “Sale at
the Shoe Warehouse.”
Alice runs into the center of the square then slows down.
Suddenly, she’s not sure of where she is.
TIGHT CLOSE-UP OF ALICE
THE DEPTH OF FIELD has become very shallow, completelyisolating her from her surroundings. The normal Universitysoundscape fades away disconcertingly. She looks from one
building to another - from one person to another. Thingsswim momentarily into focus but there’s no context - nobigger picture. Her breathing starts to quicken.
She ventures one way a few paces, up some stairs. Her
breathing is rapid, her face flushed with fear. She puts herhead down, forcing herself to focus.
PINK PAGES 12
Then, she recognizes the Columbia Library Building in frontof her. Normality returns. People walk by her, chatting.
Everything is in focus now.
STREET VENDOR:
Want one?
ALICE:
No thanks.
INT. ALICE’S HOME - ENTRYWAY
There’s the sound of a key in the door.
JOHN (O.S.)
Ali...
From the kitchen area, John appears, hair messy, a day’sstubble visible. Alice enters, trying not to show theturmoil she’s feeling.
JOHN:
I was wondering where you were.
He goes to hug her.
ALICE:
Don’t. I’m all sweaty.
JOHN:
How did it go?
ALICE:
What?
Alice heads to the kitchen.
INT. KITCHEN
JOHN:

ALICE:

JOHN:
I’m sure they were. And how was
Lydia?
ALICE:
Good, y’know...
