The Exorcist Page #3
Burke turns to see Chris walking toward him. He walks to her.
CREW MEMBER:
Can you just consider on whether or not we can do without it?
Chris walks to Burke with her script in hand.
CHRIS:
Burke take a look at this damn thing it just doesn't make sense.
BURKE:
Why it's perfectly plain, your the teacher at the college, you
don't want the building torn down.
CHRIS:
C'mon I can read for Christ sake.
BURKE:
Well what's wrong?
CHRIS:
Well why are they tearing the building down?
BURKE:
Shall we summon the writer? He's in Paris I believe.
CHRIS:
Hiding?
We see a crowd of people looking on. Standing out is a young,
dark, handsome Jesuit Priest .
BURKE:
F***ing.
Chris bursts into laughter and hugs Burke as the crowd including
the priest burst into laughter.We cut to a crew member with a
clapper board.
CREW MEMBER:
Scene 39, hotel, take 4!
As he claps the board we hear the assistant director's voice on a
mega phone.
CREW:
Okay Action!
The crowd of movie extras cheer and chant as an actor with a mega
phone plays his part. Chris is being touched up with make up
before she makes her appearance. She walks toward the set.
ACTOR:
(with mega-phone)
After the actor says each line, the crowd cheer. Chris walks into
the crowd of extras, as we see Burke on the directors chair
smiling and laughing. Chris reaches the guy with the mega-phone
and turns on character. She takes the mega-phone and begins.
CHRIS:
(with mega-phone)
Wait a minute, please, hold it! Hey c'mon we're all concerned
with human rights for god's sake, but the kids who wanna get an
education have a right too!
The crowd cheer.
CHRIS:
(with mega-phone)
Can you understand it's against your own principles for gods
sake.
The crowd cheer.
CHRIS:
You can't, you can't accomplish anything by sending kids
out........
The crowd cheer cutting her short. We focus on the young priest
who is walking away from the campus.
CHRIS:
(with mega-phone)
Order! Order! If you wanna effect any change you'll have to do it
within the system.......
The crowd cut her short again with an almighty cheer. We move in
front of the young priest who continues to walk from the set.
CREW:
Okay cut! That's a rap!
EXTERIOR- GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY- ENTRANCE- DAY
We see Chris descending a flight of stairs walking toward a car.
CHRIS:
I think I'll walk home tonight Mike.
MIKE:
All right.
She hands her leather case to him.
CHRIS:
And take that and drop it by my house.
She walks off and waves goodnight to the crew across the road. As
she turns the corner and walks down the road, Mike Oldfield's
Tubular Bells begins to play. She walks through the leaf covered
street on Halloween and sees a group of kids in costume run past
her. She carries on walking and sees to nuns waking in the wind,
with the gowns blowing. She approaches the local chapel and over
hears a voice.
