The Deleted Hippie Scene from the 2004 Screenplay.

Yep, the scene reads just as embarrassingly as I'm sure it plays out in the actual filmed sequence. I think it would have been a major flaw in the film had it been left in, which is probably one reason it has been omitted from all versions of the DVD so far.
Still, I would watch it at least once, for curiosity's sake. And, as Jeff aptly points out, it represents yet another of those too infrequent moments when we see our two "western heroes" ( ::)) together and happy to boot.

Hippies intruding on Jack and Ennis's limited time together? No way!
But I agree that it would be cool to see that scene as a DVD extra.

The dialogue is awful!!!!!!!

True that Mel. I wonder if James Schamus wrote it? Since he is the one that supposedly campaigned for it to be included.??

I agree! It's really unlike the dialogue in the rest of the movie.
All of the scenes that are in the actual movie but not in the short story add something. But this seems to subtract, not add.
