The Big Sleep "THE BIG SLEEP" Screenplay by William Faulkner Leigh Brackett Jules Furthman From the novel by Raymond Chandler 1944 FADE IN: 1. EXT. STERNWOOD PLACE - ESTABLISHING SCENE It is a millionaire's house, big, sprawling, California style, with clipped lawns and gardens, on a hill above the now abandoned oil field which was the family's wealth. A small coupe drives up to the door and stops, and Philip Marlowe gets out. We just have time to establish him as he approaches the door -- a husky, self-confident man, well- dressed but not flashy. 2. INSERT: A BRASS DOORPLATE KNOCKER WITH A BELL BENEATH lettered STERNWOOD 3. EXT. FRONT DOOR - CLOSE SHOT - MARLOWE as NORRIS opens the door. Norris is thin, silver-haired with a gentle intelligent face. NORRIS (holding the door) Good morning, sir. MARLOWE I'm Philip Marlowe. General Sternwood sent for me. NORRIS (opens door, steps aside) Yes, Mr. Marlowe. Will you come in? MARLOWE (entering) Thanks. 4. INT. FORMAL MALL - SAME OPULENT BIG-SCALE STYLE - MARLOWE as Norris shuts the door, takes Marlowe's hat. NORRIS Will you sit here? I'll tell the General you have come. MARLOWE Okay. 2. Norris exits. Marlowe looks about, interested and curious, sees something, moves toward it. 5. CLOSE SHOT - MARLOWE as he stands before a portrait, examining it with curious interest. It is a portrait of General Sternwood, in regimentals, beneath crossed battle-torn cavalry pennons and a sabre. He is still staring at the portrait when at a SOUND OFF, he turns and sees CARMEN STERNWOOD approaching. She is about 20, in slacks, something sullen and hot about her. She stops about 10 feet from him and stares at him, biting the thumb of her left hand. MARLOWE Good morning. CARMEN (after a moment) You're not very tall are you? MARLOWE I tried to be. CARMEN Not bad looking, though -- you probably know it. MARLOWE Thanks. He goes to a chair and sits down. When he looks up, he sees Carmen approaching, still staring at him. CARMEN (approaching) What's your name? MARLOWE Reilly -- Doghouse Reilly. CARMEN (beside the chair now) That's a funny name. Are you a prize fighter? MARLOWE No. I'm a shamus. CARMEN A what? MARLOWE A private detective. 3. CARMEN You're cute. As she speaks, she sits suddenly on the arm of his chair. As she does so, Marlowe rises, shifts the chair in doing so, so that to her surprise, Carmen finds herself sitting in the chair itself. She stares up, surprised and then angrily, is about to speak again when they both see Norris. He has just entered noiselessly, stands beside the chair. On Norris' face there is now a curious expression of grief, sadness. Carmen glances up at him, rises quickly as if he had reprimanded her with words, and exits. Marlowe looks after her, thoughtful, a little grim. NORRIS The General will see you now. MARLOWE (looking after Carmen) Who was that? NORRIS Miss Carmen Sternwood, sir. MARLOWE You ought to wean her. She looks old enough. NORRIS Yes, sir. This way, if you please. They exit through French doors. 6. EXT. REAR LAWN - SAME WEALTHY SCALE Garage at one side, beyond it a tremendous greenhouse. Norris is leading Marlowe along the path toward the green house. A chauffeur is washing a car before the garage. We establish him in passing -- a handsome, boyish-looking man, OWEN TAYLOR. Marlowe follows Norris on to the greenhouse, looking at the tremendous size of it as Norris opens the door and stands aside for Marlowe to enter. 7. INT. GREENHOUSE CHOKED WITH ORCHID PLANTS Marlowe, following Norris between the crowding tendrils and branches. The place is oven-hot, damp with sweat, green with gloom. Marlowe is already reacting to it, is already mopping his face with his handkerchief. 4. MARLOWE (mopping neck, following Norris) Couldn't we have gone around this? NORRIS (over shoulder; walking on) The General sits in here, sir. 8. MED. CLOSE SHOT - GENERAL STERNWOOD in a wheelchair in center of the greenhouse, in a cleared space about which the plants crowd and hover. The GENERAL is the man we saw in the portrait, though older, and obviously dying, so that only his fierce eyes seem to have any life. Even in the terrific heat his body is wrapped in a traveling rug and a heavy bathrobe, his gnarled hands lying like dead gnarled twigs on the rug, his fierce eyes following as Norris leads Marlowe in. NORRIS (stopping) This is Mr. Marlowe, General. The General does not speak, only the fierce eyes stare at Marlowe as Norris pushes a wicker chair up behind Marlowe's legs. STERNWOOD Brandy, Norris. (to Marlowe) How do you like your brandy, sir? MARLOWE (sitting down) Just with brandy. Norris takes Marlowe's hat, exits. STERNWOOD I used to like mine with champagne. The champagne cold as Valley Forge and about three ponies of brandy under it. You may take your coat off, sir. MARLOWE Thanks. He rises, removes his coat, takes out his handkerchief, hangs his coat on chair. 5. STERNWOOD (watching him) It's too hot in here for any man who still has blood in his veins. Marlowe sits again, mops his face and neck. STERNWOOD (still watching him) You may smoke too. I can still enjoy the smell of it, anyway. MARLOWE Thanks. He produces a cigarette, lights it, blows smoke, Sternwood's nostrils moving as he sniffs the smoke. Norris enters, pushing a teawagon bearing decanter, siphon, initialed ice-bucket. STERNWOOD That man is already dead who must indulge his own vices by proxy. Norris wheels the wagon up, starts to prepare a drink. STERNWOOD (watching pettishly) Come, man. Pour a decent one. NORRIS (adding brandy) Yes, General. MARLOWE (watching) But not too decent, Norris. I don't want to exchange places with it. Norris adds soda, hands glass to Marlowe. MARLOWE (taking glass) Thanks. He sits back. Norris covers the ice-bucket with a napkin, exits. SOUND of DOOR CLOSING as Norris leaves the greenhouse. Marlowe raises the glass, sips. Sternwood watches him, licks his lips with longing pleasure and enjoyment. Marlowe lowers the glass. STERNWOOD Tell me about yourself, Mr. Marlowe. I suppose I have the right to ask. 6. MARLOWE There's not much to tell. I'm thirty-eight years old, went to college once. I can still speak English when there's any demand for it in my business. I worked for the District Attorney's office once. It was Bernie Ohls, his chief investigator, who sent me word you wanted to see me. I'm not married. STERNWOOD You didn't like working for Mr. Wilde? MARLOWE I was fired for insubordination I seem to rate pretty high on that. STERNWOOD I always did, myself. Sir -- (he slides one hand under the rug on his knees) What do you know about my family, Mr. Marlowe? MARLOWE (mopping) You're a widower, a millionaire, two young daughters. One unmarried, the other married once but it didn't didn't take. Both now living with you and both -- (he breaks off; the General's fierce eyes watch him) STERNWOOD Go on. MARLOWE Am I to swap you gossip for hospitality? STERNWOOD (sternly) You are to swap me your confidence for my own. 7. MARLOWE (shrugs) All right. Both pretty, and both pretty -- wild. What did you want to see me about? STERNWOOD I'm being blackmailed again. MARLOWE (mopping) Again? STERNWOOD (draws his hand out from under the rug, holding a brown envelope) About a year ago I paid a man named Joe Brody five thousand dollars to let my younger daughter alone. MARLOWE Ah. STERNWOOD What does that mean? MARLOWE It means 'ah.' It never went through the D.A.'s office, or I'd have known it. Who handled that for you? STERNWOOD Shawn Regan did. MARLOWE (alternating between the drink, the cigarette and the now sodden handkerchief with which he mops his face and neck) There must be some reason why Regan's not handling this one too. Am I to know it? STERNWOOD Shawn has left me. 8. MARLOWE I thought I hadn't seen him around lately. STERNWOOD Yes, he left about a month ago, without a word. That was what hurt. I had no claim on him, since I was only his employer. But I hoped we were more than that and that he would have said goodbye to me. You knew him too? MARLOWE Yes. From the old days, when he was running rum from Mexico and I was on the other side, and now and then we swapped shots between drinks -- or drinks between shots, if you like that better. STERNWOOD My respects to you. Few men ever exchange more than one shot with Shawn Regan. He commanded a brigade in the Irish Republican Army, you know. MARLOWE (mopping) No, I didn't. But I knew he was a good man at whatever he did. Nobody was pleased better than me when I heard you had taken him on as your -- whatever he was here. STERNWOOD As my friend, my son almost. Many's the hour he would sit here with me, sweating like a pig, drinking the brandy I could no longer drink, telling me stories of the Irish revolution -- But enough of this. (he holds out the envelope) Here. And help yourself to the brandy. Marlowe takes the envelope, sits again, wipes his hands on his wet handkerchief, removes from the envelope a card and three clips of stiff paper. 9.

The uncanny in Howard Hawks’s The Big Sleep Christophe GELLY Dealing with The Big Sleep as a work fraught with uncanny representations now seems self-evident, after so many critics—whether in the field of literary or film studies— unsuccessfully strove to recapture the true development of the criminal plot unravelled by Marlowe: one piece still insists on being missing and points to the unsatisfactory closure of the text as well as the movie. It may be the mystery around Owen Taylor’s death, a minor character (but are there really minor characters in the detective genre, before the final solution supposedly sets up the characters’ roles for good?), or the main criminal protagonist in the movie, Eddie Mars, whose guilt is problematic in the plot. In other words, the disturbing, uncanny quality in the novel and the movie stems from this problematic closure and from the mystery on who did what precisely in the story—hence this quality derives from a debunking of the genre as self-contained and purely self-explanatory, an “ideal” of the text by which the text fails to abide.

    Pulp-related books and periodicals available from Mike Chomko for May and June 2019 Dianne and I had a wonderful time in Chicago, attending the Windy City Pulp & Paper Convention in April. It’s a fine show that you should try to attend. Upcoming conventions include Robert E. Howard Days in Cross Plains, Texas on June 7 – 8, and the Edgar Rice Burroughs Chain of Friendship, planned for the weekend of June 13 – 15. It will take place in Oakbrook, Illinois. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like there will be a spring edition of Ray Walsh’s Classicon. Currently, William Patrick Maynard and I are writing about the programming that will be featured at PulpFest 2019. We’ll be posting about the panels and presentations through June 10. On June 17, we’ll write about this year’s author signings, something new we’re planning for the convention. Check things out at www.pulpfest.com. Laurie Powers biography of LOVE STORY MAGAZINE editor Daisy Bacon is currently scheduled for release around the end of 2019. I will be carrying this book. It’s entitled QUEEN OF THE PULPS. Please reserve your copy today. Recently, I was contacted about carrying the Armchair Fiction line of books. I’ve contacted the publisher and will certainly be able to stock their books. Founded in 2011, they are dedicated to the restoration of classic genre fiction. Their forté is early science fiction, but they also publish mystery, horror, and westerns. They have a strong line of lost race novels. Their books are illustrated with art from the pulps and such.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Journal of Religion & Film by an authorized editor of DigitalCommons@UNO. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Any Gods Out There? Perceptions of Religion from Star Wars and Star Trek Abstract Hollywood films and eligionr have an ongoing rocky relationship, especially in the realm of science fiction. A brief comparison study of the two giants of mainstream sci-fi, Star Wars and Star Trek reveals the differing attitudes toward religion expressed in the genre. Star Trek presents an evolving perspective, from critical secular humanism to begrudging personalized faith, while Star Wars presents an ambiguous mythological foundation for mystical experience that is in more ways universal. This article is available in Journal of Religion & Film: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf/vol7/iss2/3 Schultes: Any Gods Out There? Science Fiction has come of age in the 21st century. From its humble beginnings, "Sci- Fi" has been used to express the desires and dreams of those generations who looked up at the stars and imagined life on other planets and space travel, those who actually saw the beginning of the space age, and those who still dare to imagine a universe with wonders beyond what we have today.

    RRaayy BBrraaddbbuurryy 1 1 “Portrait by John Sherffius”, under “Audio & Video: Ray Bradbury”, National Endowment for the Arts, http://arts.endow.gov/av/video/bradbury/bradbury.html 091027 Bibliotheca Alexandrina Compiled by Rasha Mohsen Biography 1 Ray Douglas Bradbury was born on August 22, 1920, in Waukegan, Illinois. His father, Leonard Spaulding Bradbury, worked as a telephone lineman. His mother was Esther Marie Moberg Bradbury. Bradbury had older twin brothers, Leonard and Samuel, who were born in 1916, and a younger sister, Elizabeth, born in 1926.2 In 1934, the Bradbury family drove across the country to Los Angeles, with young Ray piling out of their jalopy at every stop to plunder the local library in search of L. Frank Baum's Oz books. In 1936, Bradbury joined a weekly Thursday-night conclave that would grow to attract such science-fiction legends as Robert A. Heinlein, Leigh Brackett, and future Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard. In 1947, Ray Bradbury married Marguerite McClure. They had met the previous April in Fowler Brothers Bookstore, where she worked—and where at first she had him pegged for a shoplifter: “Once I figured out that he wasn't stealing books, that was it. I fell for him”. 3 Ray Bradbury is best known for his highly imaginative science-fiction short stories and novels that blend social criticism with an awareness of the hazards of runaway technology. He published his first story in 1940 and was soon contributing widely to magazines. His first book of short stories, Dark Carnival (1947), was followed by The Martian Chronicles (1950), which is generally accounted a science-fiction classic in its depiction of materialistic Earthmen exploiting and corrupting an idyllic Martian civilization.
