Other Side of the Wind, Touch of Evil, Chimes scripts wantd

Postby Sir Bygber Brown » Wed Jul 02, 2008 5:28 am

If you have a spare copy I could buy off you, otherwise I maybe could think of something to trade you.


In fact if anyone has any spare/doubles Welles script-books at all, i'd love to hear from you.

The Other Side of the Wind Script is available from Amazon.com in France --

That's where I got my copy. It includes the script in both English and French.

Anyone know if that Touch of Evil script posted here is the same as the Rutger's print or something else?

It's "something else", Welles' shooting script dated Feb. 1957. The Rutger book reprints the continuity script for the 108 min. "preview" version which contains all the scenes added by the studio after Welles was let go (there is an essay at the end of the Rutger edition which compares the novel, Paul Monash's original script, Welles' shooting script and the finished film). The "Feb. '57" shooting script available at "scriptcity.com" is unique in that it demonstrates where Welles' head was at when he began shooting the movie. It would be interesting to see how Welles scripted the sequence where Vargas meets up with Quinlan the morning after the car bomb explosion since that scene ended up being reshot by others.

Thanks so much Roger Ryan!

I'm going to order the Touch of Evil script and enjoy comparing it to my copy of the Rutger's script.

On a somewhat related note, does anyone know how best to navigate the Amazon.fr site to purchase TOSOTW script? I don't know French and I've forgotten how I managed to order my Studio Canal copy of "The Trial" a couple years back. Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again!
