showing electric sign -- odd angle -- THE GRAND HOTEL --
unlighted.
CUT TO:
ELECTRIC CONTROL ROOM
small section -- Engineer pulling down lever.
FACADE OF HOTEL:
sign flashes on.
DISSOLVE OUT:
DISSOLVE INTO:
EXTERIOR HOTELShooting directly on swinging door -- normal crowd action.
Tea-dansant at this hour is daily rendezvous for smart demi-
mondaines, gigolos, out-of-town travelers, etc. -- These
types indicated.
In the distance we hear music.
DISSOLVE SUDDENLY TO:
YELLOWROOM - NEAR SHOT OF BAND
This same music is being played by the Eastman Jazz Band in
the Yellow Room of the hotel.
THE CAMERA does not wait but backs down the room. It is the
hour of the tea-dansant.
As the CAMERA IS BACKING OUT OF THE ROOM which is in reality
the restaurant converted -- the tall figure of the Baron --
he proceeds through the door of the restaurant --
Note:
Question here as to whether Yellow Room will be therestaurant converted, or not. In which case it will be
necessary to add scene of Baron walking through corridor
upstairs -- giving sense of distance.
The Baron is whistling the tune of the orchestra, he proceeds
through the lobby as if on a mission. He glances at a pretty
woman who passes and nods good evening to the Doctor, who is
seated in his chair, not far from the desk. He enters.
CUT TO:
FLORIST SHOP:
Pretty girl is there, she has seen him coming. She turns
from the door and hands him a box of orchids, already tied
in ribbon.
BARON:
Good little girl -- nice ones?
GIRL:
Yes, Baron.
The Baron would stay and flirt but he has a mission; he
leaves.
CUT TO:
LOBBY:
In the lobby we pick up the Baron leaving the florists with
small box of flowers -- he crosses quickly to Senf's desk.
SHOT OVER SENF'S HEAD as the Baron puts the flowers down.
Senf is busy.
The Baron is whistling gaily -- tapping his fingers on the
flower box -- he is good-natured and patient.
SENF:
(to Clerk -- as
telephone bell rings)
Is that for me?
CLERK:
No -- Madam Grusinskaya's car is to
be brought.
(he replaces the
receiver)
SENF:
(to one of the bellboys)
Madam Grusinskaya's car is to be
brought.
Boy leaves. We hear his voice out of scene at the door.
BELLBOY'S VOICE
Madam Grusinskaya's car... to be
brought.
SENF:
Good evening, Baron.
BARON:
(amiably)
Good evening. Will you send these up
to Madam Grusinskaya?
SENF:
Yes, Baron.
(he hands the box of
flowers to the clerk)
Madam Grusinskaya.
Clerk hands box to bellboy.
CLERK:
Room one-seventy -- Madam Grusinskaya.
BARON:
(to Senf)
Have you my tickets for the theatre?
SENF:
Oh yes, Baron --
(to Clerk)
Baron von Gaigern's seats for Madam
Grusinskaya.
Telephone rings again. Clerk picks it up.
SENF:
(to Clerk)
For me?
