training day - the wild bunch - boiler room

(FROM THE WILDBUNCH Pg. 15)

IN THE OFFICE - C.L. QUIETLY RELOADS HIS GUN.

AS THE BUNCH NEAR THE EDGE OF TOWN - A FARMBOY STANDS UP IN A BUCKBOARD AND FIRES A SHOTGUN INTO THE FACE OF BUCK.

THE BIRDSHOT CATCHES BUCK IN THE FACE, BLINIDING HIM.
He screams and reelis in the saddle

that is how it appears in the screenplay. caps and all and caught a shotgun blast to the face and he not only lived....

read the script, he actually won a beauty pagent on page 77

it's all what's in the weapon and suspending disbelief has been around since king kong would actually get bigger if it served the scene.

have you washed the linnens koj? cause i've been shot by an elephant gun before for stealig peanuts and that didn't even leave a mark.

i think the point is the face is the shoulder as compared to what would happen. a godamn birdshot would blow your face off. that's the damn point.

washed linens aside, i have to agree. certainly, blininding is to baflooeeing as the face is to the shoulder (in this case, at least). how could it not be? i'm in complete cohersion with you as far as this agreementude is concerned. nothing could be further from the core of your meaning than to suggest otherwise.

as for the difference or similarity between any such points of view, it could be said that. and, i think you would agree, i'm not exaggerating in this regard

ahh

the sweet aroma of point pontification, wrapped up in a I'm too terrific tango. Thanks for the bantar, because it was getting a bit stale with the 'I wrote my first ten pages, should I contact an agent for representation' threads.
