ORIGINAL ENDING - PART 1


The following is from the shooting script. It has a different ending from what was eventually released and, in my opinion, is better:

76 INT. BROOKLYN MUSEUM/FOYER TO BEAUX-ARTS COURT - DAY 76
A small group of stylish BOYS and GIRLS are sketching some of
the pieces in the foyer of a grand room in the Brooklyn
Museum. By the way they dress and move, they’re clearly
artistic. Among them, looking more mature, more serious and
maybe gay, with a stylish scarf around his neck, is Jake.
Time has gone by; maybe a year or two.
76A INT. BROOKLYN MUSEUM/BEAUX-ARTS COURT - DAY 76A
Jake and his friends enter the formal and elegant Beaux Arts
Court. Across the way, between arches, Jake sees a group of
kids in khaki’s and red shirts -- Tony’s Catholic school
uniform -- walking in the opposite direction.
They are with one AFRICAN BOY, who is not in uniform.
For a moment, he doesn’t know what to do. Until, suddenly, he
makes up his mind, and moves.
76B INT. BROOKLYN MUSEUM/BEAUX-ARTS COURT - MOMENTS LATER 76B
Jake walks in one direction around the courtyard.
Tony and his friends continue to walk around the other side.
Jake sees Tony and his friends exit the Court, and he
follows.
