318T EXT. OCEAN – LONG SHOT – TITANIC – NIGHT                                              318T

 

            The wind is up.  And the tender ships are clustered around.  The Mikhail Kurkov is standing by.

 

319    EXT. DECK TITANIC – NIGHT                                                                                319

 

            There is much activity.  The pumps are busy drawing water out of the upper decks, two choppers are coming

            and going, and a lot of patching and rigging is going on.  A command post and radio room have been set up in

            the grand salon.  We SEE the effects of the increased wind as Pitt comes INTO the SHOT amidships.

 

320    SINGLE ON PITT                                                                                                        320

 

            As he walks toward the stern, we SEE a different expression on his face than we’ve seen before.  He takes in

            the ruined majesty of the great liner.  He walks slowly.  The CAMERA EASES BACK, then FOLLOWS HIM

            FROM THE REAR.  Faintly we HEAR the TITANIC’S ORCHESTRA again.  Also an ECHO of the

            EMERGENCY HORNS we heard during the sinking.

 

321    PITT’S POV – MOVING SHOT                                                                                 321

 

            We TAKE IN the details of the ship as the CAMERA is functioning at his eyes until he reaches the fantail.

 

322    HIGH ANGLE ON PITT                                                                                              322

 

            He reaches inside his jacket, takes out Bigalow’s packet unties it and takes out a faded red pennant of

            the White Star Line.  He ties it to a shattered stub of the mast on the fantail.
