1 - Charlie Brown and Linus are standing behind that brick wall (you know the one), talking.
CHARLIE BROWN: Every year you go to that pumpkin patch to wait for the Great Pumpkin, and every year you end up spending the night out in the cold for nothing.
2 - Still behind the wall, close-up of Charlie Brown.
CHARLIE BROWN: Why do you bother when you know that nothing is going to come of it?
3 - Pull back out, Linus and Charlie Brown look at each other.
LINUS: You never know, Charlie Brown.
4 - Switch scene. We're now in the pumpkin patch. Linus sits alone among the pumpkins. Waiting.
LINUS: You never know.
I'm not TOO familiar with the characterizations in Peanuts but this seemed pretty spot on to me.
ReplyDeleteLast panel made me laugh.
Great take on a classic four panel Peanuts page. Linus feels exactly right, a sense of optimism mixed with melancholy which your final beat nails.
