Script: Cut Scenes: Feeling the Sun Again
Bodine starts the tape recorder. Rose is gazing at the screen seeing THE LIVE FEED FROM THE WRECK--SNOOP DOG is moving along the starboard side of the hull, heading aft. The rectangular windows of A deck (forward) march past on the right. ROSE The next day, Saturday, I remember thinking how the sunlight felt. DISSOLVE TO: EXT. B DECK TITANIC - DAY MATCH DISSOLVE from the rusting hulk to the gleaming new Titanic in 1912, passing the end of the enclosed promenade just as Rose walks into the sunlight right in front of us. She is stunningly dressed and walking with purpose. OLD ROSE (V.O.) As if I hadn't felt the sun in years. IT IS SATURDAY APRIL 13, 1912. Rose unlatches the gate to go down into third class. The steerage men on the deck stop what they're doing and stare at her. CUT TO: INT. THIRD CLASS GENERAL ROOM The social center of steerage life. It is stark by comparison to the opulence of first class, but is a loud, boisterous place. There are mothers with babies, kids running between the benches yelling in several languages and being scolded in several more. There are old women yelling, men playing chess, girls doing needlepoint and reading dime novels. There is even an upright piano and Tommy Ryan is noodling around it. Three boys, shrieking and shouting, are scrambling around chasing a rat under the benches, trying to whomp it with a shoe and causing general havoc. Jack is playing with 5-year-old CORA CARTMELL, drawing funny faces together in his sketchbook. Fabrizio is struggling to get a conversation going with an attractive Norwegian girl, HELGA DAHL, sitting with her family at a table across the room. FABRIZIO No Italian? Some little English? HELGA No, no. Norwegian. Only. Helga's eye is caught by something. Fabrizio looks, does a take... and Jack, curious, follows their gaze to see... Rose, coming toward them. The activity in the room stops... a hush falls. Rose feels suddenly self-conscious as the steerage passengers stare openly at this princess, some with resentment, others with awe. She spots Jack and gives a little smile, walking straight to him. He rises to meet her, smiling. ROSE Hello Jack. Fabrizio and Tommy are floored. It's like the slipper fitting Cinderella. JACK Hello again. ROSE Could I speak to you in private? JACK Uh, yes. Of course. After you. He motions her ahead and follows. Jack glances over his shoulder, one eyebrow raised, as he walks out with her leaving a stunned silence.
CUT TO: 73 EXT. BOAT DECK - DAY
Jack and Rose walk side by side. They pass people reading and talking in steamer chairs, some of whom glance curiously at the mismatched couple. He feels out of place in his rough clothes. They are both awkward, for different reasons.
