An Excerpt from Just Not There
FADE IN: EXT. FUT.TOKYO NIGHT ABOVE people crowd the street wearing bright clothing they dance as TECNO MUSIC blares from speakers, MAN HOLE COVER is in center of crowd it MOVES. then the MAN HOLE COVER is forced upward and MILES emerges followed by 2 GIRLS and ANOTHER GUY. ALL appear confused. The MAN HOLE COVER makes a LOUD NOISE as it FALLS back into place. FREEZE FRAME. MILES (O.V) We didnt come here on purpose, this is not our city, this is not anywhere we could have ever dreamed up... EXT. "THERE CITY" DAY ABOVE run down and only colors are brown and stark grays and whites, dusty "sunlight" shines. a few people walk on cracked sidewalks. MILES (O.V) This is our city, the only city we had ever known. A BIG BUILDING appears on screen,it is crowded and busy around it. we follow a GROUP into the BIG BUILDING. there is a RECEPTION DESK in the atrium. MILES (O.V) We have every book in the world. the GROUP heads past the RECEPTION DESK and the ENDLESS SHELVES reaching up, cant see top. There are thousands of STAIRWAYS leading up the stairs. MILES (O.V) This is where we started. CUT BACK to FROZEN FUT. TOKYO. UNFREEZE. |
