Script: Cut Scenes: New Davits



Find more pictures from cut scenes in the Image Gallery under "Misc movie"
A long beat. Smith turns to his employer.

SMITH
I believe you may get your headlines, Mr. Ismay.


EXT. BOAT DECK

Andrews is striding along the boat deck, as seamen and officers scurry to uncover the boats. Steam is venting from pipes on the funnels overhead, and the din is horrendous. Speech is difficult adding to the crew's level of disorganization. Andrews sees men fumbling with the mechanism of one of the Wellin davits and yells to them over the roar of steam.

ANDREWS
Turn to the right! Pull the falls taut before you unchock. Have you never had a boat drill?

SEAMAN
No sir! Not with these new davits, sir.

He looks around, disgusted as the crew fumble with the davits, and the tackle for the "falls"... the ropes which are used to lower the boats. A few passengers are coming out on deck, hesitantly in the noise and bitter cold.

CUT TO:

165 INT. ROSE AND CAL'S SUITE

From inside the sitting room they can hear knocking and voices in the corridor.

RUTH
I had better go dress.

Ruth exits and Hockley crosses to Rose.


He regards her coldly for a moment, then SLAPS her across the face.

CAL
It is a little slut, isn't it?




The struggle with the davits was never filmed.

Why Ruth's exit was deleted: The focus needed to be on the tension between Cal and Rose.
