| How will it be done? Just as you'd expect... out of the dressing room, down the stairs, out into the street, get mugged, camera stolen, abrupt departure from script to accommodate ambulance. Norma improvises Act Two, saying what Joe would have done had he stuck around. Max, seeing his mistress talking to herself, will have no problem with it, just being glad she's accepted the power of talkies. Young Betty Schaeffer will still be "Too Much in Love to Care", and the audience will be no more baffled than if the whole enterprise had gone to plan. |
