"G" is glare
« Reply #10240 on: January 16, 2007, 10:52:44 pm »
Ennis (not confrontational):  "Hey, you boys wanna keep it down, I got two little girls here."

Biker #1:  "Fuck you!  (mumbles to his friend)  Asshole probably stopped puttin' it to the wife after the kids come, you know how that is."

Indignant, they glare at Ennis, as the first of the fireworks shoots into the sky, exploding in air in sync with the verse "...bombs bursting in air"....  [screenplay]

"H" is hides

Alma and the girls move away from Ennis and this scene in horror, the fireworks and music in the background.

Alma Jr. begins to cry, hides behind her mother.

Several of the surrounding families are quickly packing up to get away from the brawl.     [2004 screenplay]

"I" is ingratiating
« Reply #10242 on: January 16, 2007, 11:54:22 pm »
The two bikers weren't at all interested in ingratiating themselves with Ennis but soon discovered that Ennis was hardly the ingratiating type himself.

"J" is Jenny'll

After Ennis asks if they should move closer to the fireworks, Alma replies:  "No.  Come on, let's don't.  Jenny'll get scared."  [DVD]

"L" is limps
« Reply #10244 on: January 17, 2007, 12:54:57 am »
Two bikers approach an area just behind the Del Mar family.
Around the same age as Ennis. 
Biker #1 has a few teeth missing.
Boker #2 limps, dragging a club-foot.
Each carries a half-empty bottle of liquor.
Loud, profane, already drunk - Sit themselves down on the grass behind Ennis and his family.     [screenplay]

"M" is misogynistic

Ennis is enraged at the misogynistic remarks the two bikers are making in front of his little girls.

"N" is nuisances

Ennis tried to control his mounting anger towards the drunken, loud-mouthed nuisances but failed.

"O" is oughta

ENNIS
I don't want no trouble. You need to shut your slop bucket mouths!
BIKER #2
(stands, too, faces ENNIS) You oughta listen to your ol' lady, then. Move somewheres else.
ALMA stands now, FRANCINE on her hip, ALMA JR. clutching her mother's skirt. Quickly gathers up the blanket.
ALMA
(scared)
C'mon, Ennis. Please!
ENNIS looks back at ALMA, then kicks BIKER #1 right in the face, bloodying his nose and knocking him out cold.
{from the 2004 script}

"P" is park

72   EXT: Riverton park: FOURTH OF JULY: NIGHT:   72

ENNIS, ALMA, ALMA JR. and FRANCINE. ALMA spreads a blanket on the ground, preparing to settle her family in to watch the fireworks.

WE SEE other Riverton citizens setting up, a few assorted rowdies drinking beer, families, couples relaxing near the DEL MAR FAMILY. Other children with their parents play nearby.

ENNIS
We should move closer.

ALMA
Let's don't, Francine'll get scared.

"R" is raising

The bikers were raising Cain and when Ennis responded by raising a hand, it raised a few eyebrows.
