Voiceovern till The Lady from Shanghai

Det verkar som om vi låter The lady from shanghai scenen utspela sig i stockholm istället. Hästdroskan får bli en taxi.

Magnus jobbar på ett storyboard och jag har hittat en transkribering av den inledande voiceovern. Ljuv musik:

When I start out to make a fool of myself…there´s very little can stop me. If l´d known where it would end, l´d have never let anything start. If l´d been in my right mind, that is. But once l´d seen her… I was not in my right mind for quite some time.

´´Good evening, ´´

said l, thinking myself a very gay dog indeed. But here was a beautiful girl…and me with plenty of time to get myself into trouble. Some people can smell danger. Not me. I asked her if she´d have a cigarette.

It´s me last one, so please don´t disappoint me.

But I don´t smoke.

That´s how I found her. And from that moment on, I did not use my head very much…except to be thinking of her. But in the park in those days…the rough young fellas used to be staging holdups.

Help! Help!

These young fellas were not professionals. That´s the reason…why I start out in this story a little bit like a hero. Which I most certainly am not. The cabdriver woke up, he was okay…..so I borrowed his carriage to drive the lady home. In a while she recovered herself and brightened up……what with the things I told her to get her mind off the scare……and to set her thinking as well of the brave fella that had rescued her.
