旅行终点 The End of the Tour Movie Script

We hear the shower running. Lipsky sits on the bed watching Jaclyn Smith and Farrah Fawcett.

74 EXT. HOTEL WHITNEY/LOBBY - MINNEAPOLIS - 1996 - MORNING 74 Lipsky and David, with his shower-wet hair pinned up, find Patty’s car out front. They get in the backseat.

PATTY:

You’re wearing that?

DAVID:

For a radio interview? Yes.

75 Her disapproval showing, she pulls away. 75 53.

76 INT. MINNESOTA PUBLIC RADIO/LOBBY/CORRIDOR - ST PAUL - 1996 -76

DAY:

A pretty PRODUCTION ASSISTANT greets David and Lipsky.

DAVID:

Hi. Dave. Dave Wallace.

P.A.

(blushes) I know who you are.

David introduces Lipsky.

DAVID:

My amanuensis, Mr. Boswell.

The P.A. shakes Lipsky’s hand, playing along with the joke.

P.A.

(in greeting) “Mr. Boswell.” Right this way.

She leads David, followed by Lipsky, down a corridor past glass-walled studios. Lipsky sees people recognize David, whisper among themselves. Young women smile shyly, excited to be in the presence of a cool celebrity.

P.A.

We record digitally. I hope that’s OK.

DAVID:

So only yes or no answers?

She rolls her eyes. Lipsky laughs, David sees him scribble in his pad.

DAVID:

If you do a really mean job, I have twenty years to get you back.

Remember that.

76A INT. MINNESOTA PUBLIC RADIO/NPR STUDIO - 1996 - DAY 76A The interview goes on the air. Lipsky observes from outside the booth. The NPR GUY has a good radio voice.
