A Vision of Girl Bonding
Code temps : de 14:30 à 17:53
Durée : 3 min 23 sec
Script :
Rita: I don’t know how to thank you guys! I could never thank you enough.
Legs: Stop it, will you? Ok? Buttinger hadn’t picked on you, it would have been anyone of us!
Goldie: No Rita! It’s not you anymore. It’s us. We’re Foxfire!
Maddy: Shhhh! Don’t say it so loud!
Goldie: What? (aloud) Foxfire!
Maddy (insisting): Shut up! You don’t want us to be kicked out of school?
Legs: Don’t worry Maddy! They can’t touch us! We’re not like those assholes, the Viscounts (interrupted by the Principal: Boys, boys! Quiet! Slow down!) with their stupid pins and jackets! We don’t need any of that! Alright? We’re too smart for them! We’re invisible!
(Slow music. Intimate scene between Leg’s father and his girlfriend. Couple dancing and kissing.)
Legs (whispering in the dark): Quiet, okay! My Dad and his new slut are still in the living-room. (Leading the girls to her room). Come on!
Maddy (whispering): Ok!
Legs: Move back!
Maddy (bumping into Legs): Sorry!
Girls (giggling): Ah, ah…
Girl (whispering): Shhhh…
Girls (laughing): Ah, ah…
Legs: Let’s go! Go in! (entering her dark room) Come on! (the girls sit)
Girl (whispering): What’s she doing?
Girl (whispering): She’s lighting some candles!
Girl (whispering): It’s so pretty!
Goldie (whispering and snickering in surprise): Christ Legs! It’s like a church or something!
Legs: Right girls! Whatever it is that passes between us tonight must forever remain unspoken to the world, under penalty of death. Do you solemnly swear to consecrate yourself to your sisters in Foxfire?
Girls (responding in chorus): Yes I swear.
Legs: To abide by Foxfire’s vision of the world!
Girls (in chorus): Yes I swear.
Legs: By the Revolution of the Proletariat that is imminent. By the Apocalypse that is imminent. In the Valley of the Shadow of Death. And even under torture physical or spiritual, to never betray your Foxfire sisters.
Girls (in chorus): Yes I swear. (Legs opens a wooden box)
Maddy: Legs? I…I want to be first!
Legs: It’s not going to hurt. Ok? Just hold still!
The Gang’s Trial
Code temps : de 46:34 à 48:45
Durée : 2 min 11 sec
Script :
Lawyer (off camera): Mr. Sadovsky. Your daughter? Is she sexually promiscuous? Oh what I mean is – does she involve herself with boys? And do you know, do you know if she mixes herself with drugs, uh? Oh that is answer enough. Thank you.
Judge: Lana Maguire, Violet Kahn, Rita O’Hagan and Madeline Wirtz, you’re sentenced to five-month probation. Barbara Seifried, despite your direct implication in an act of grand larceny, you’re only sentenced to twelve-month probation. As for you, Margaret Sadovsky, charges against you are numerous: grand larceny, driving without a license, refusing to obey a police officer, malicious destruction of property, disorderly conduct, possession of a concealed weapon, attempted felonious assault with a deadly weapon, habitual truancy. On these charges, Miss Sadovsky, I sentence you to five months minimum at Red Bank State Correctional Institute for Girls.
Margaret: Five months minimum. What’s the maximum?
Judge: That’s up to you, young lady.
Margaret: Indeterminate sentencing means I could end up staying there till I’m eighteen. That makes three years. There’re adults charged with armed robbery who end up getting less than that. I bet it’s unconstitutional treating kids that way; like 'cause we’re minors, we’re not human.
Judge: Miss, we’re not here to negotiate the law.
Margaret: This court doesn’t have any jurisdiction over me.
Judge: Oh really? Is that so? Next case.
The Vote
Code temps : de 01:20:46 à 01:23:34
Durée : 2 min 48 sec
Script :
Girl (off camera): We're so proud of you, Rita
Rita: It went really well. I was sitting alone at a diner and I saw this man come in; we looked at each other and he came over and…
Goldie: You should have seen the Joe, he was so scared he almost peed his pants.
VV: Man, I wish I had been there!
Goldie: Don't worry, you'll get your chance.
Agnes: So you weren't afraid?
Rita: No, he was a really nice guy actually and not bad-looking either.
Goldie: You poor rut, you're just too addicted to guys! If any Joe tried to lay a finger on me, I'd smash his face in.
Rita: There's no danger in that, Goldie, you make them run the other way.
Goldie: I don't give a damn, I don't need men.
Rita: Well, in any case, you'd never be bait.
Goldie: I'd rather be the hook than the bait, knucklehead.
Legs: Come on guys, stop being stupid! Alright? Tonight, we're celebrating. To Rita!
All: To Rita!
Maddy: So that's three for and – and eight against.
Legs: You really are a bunch of hypocrites, aren't you? You don't want Marigold because she's coloured.
Lana: Oh come on Legs, you know that's not it. I don't have a problem with negroes, you know that.
Legs: So what's the problem, then?
Goldie: You think that just because she's your friend, we're gonna line up and vote for her?
VV: That's not how Foxfire works, Legs.
Legs: Who do you think you are VV? You've been with us just a month and you think you know what Foxfire is all about? What do you think? That you're the keeper of the Foxfire flame? The purest of the pure?
Goldie: Shut up Legs. You think we're just gonna let Snow White walk in here like she's family?
Maddy: Oh, really smart, Goldie!
Legs: You disgust me. You think your ass is lily-white, don't you? That you're better than any colored, no matter who, no matter where?
Goldie: Yeah, as a matter of fact, I do! Fuck you, Sadovsky!
Legs: (to Goldie) Fuck yourself! (to Marigold) Alright, I'll take you back to town.
