EXT: CHILDRESS: TEXAS: BEHIND RODEO AREA: NIGHT: CONTINUOUS: 1966:
JACK sits on the tailgate of his old pickup, taping his right hand for his upcoming bull ride. Hears applause.
Looks around, sees the quarter horse and the YOUNG WOMAN come flying out of the arena, everybody standing way back, giving her room.
Just as she passes JACK, her hat flies off, lands at his feet.
JACK reaches down, picks up the hat.
LUREEN trots back, patting the sweaty horse on the shoulder to calm him.
JACK hands her hat back to her. Sees a classically pretty face, lots of eye makeup.
JACK
Ma'am.
JACK looks up at her -- for a moment, she allows herself to look down at him -- notices his thick, dark hair, his appealing face, his sturdy body -- she takes her hat, then passes on.
JACK watches her ride back to the arena.
Walks back to his truck. [screenplay]
