#02130 33-K Rev. 1/8/80 68-A

EXT. FERRIS WHEEL - NIGHT We shoot over their back, as they ride the Ferris wheel.

 

SONNY

I passed by this street a couple of days ago, I swear it was just a vacant lot.

 

KIRA

This is the way things can happen. Something emerges out of nothing. One person comes by and sees a vacant lot, somebody else comes by and sees a carnival.

 

68-A-1

EXT. CARNIVAL - IMMEDIATELY AFTER They're walking through the carnival, they pass a girl, walking in the opposite direction.

 

68-A-2

KIRA'S POINT OF VIEW The girl in a muse outfit. Kira and the girl exchange glances.

 

68-A-3

Kira takes out a packet and hands it to Sonny.

 

SONNY

What's this?

 

KIRA

A painting. Open it.

 

68-A-4

Sonny opens the packet. It's a picture of Luna Park.

 

SONNY

Hey... Great.

 

KIRA

It was called Luna Park. It was one of the most beautiful places ever.

 

SONNY

Where was it?

 

KIRA

Coney Island. Walking into Luna Park was like walking into a fantasy. When the whole park was lit up, and there was this dazzling brightness, it was like a million lights shining.

 

SONNY

A million lights shining? You sound like you were there counting 'em.

 

KIRA

Oh, no... but I heard a lot about it.

 

SONNY

What happened to it?

 

KIRA

Oh... It was terrible. It burned down. Right to the ground.

 

SONNY

And nobody rebuilt it?

 

KIRA

No. Seems like such a waste, doesn't it?

 

SONNY

Yeah.

 

KIRA

Isn't it a shame, the things that people miss...

 

SONNY

People...

 

KIRA

Um. Yes. People.

 

SONNY

But nobody here's pointing a finger anybody.

 

KIRA

Oh, no. (grins) Nobody here would do a thing like that.

 

SONNY

Right. Nobody here's pointing a finger at people who use words like dump... and garbage... (grins) ...Okay, Okay, I get the idea. So you really think that place of yours could work for Danny?

 

KIRA I think that place could work out to be whatever you wanted it to be. Your friend has a dream, and you want to be involved in something you care about. Maybe his dream is big enough for the two of you. (smiles) Think about it...
