August 12, 1946 Page 7 of 8; click link at bottom to continue DIRECTOR GETS THE SCRIPT ONTO FILM With script written and set prepared, total reponsibility for the scene passes to Director Edmund Goulding (below). His primary duty is to perfect the acting o Tyrone Power and Gene Tierney but almost as important is supervision of the cutting. Cutting -- actually done by Watson Webb (lower right) -- involves piecing together the best elements in the many "takes" of the scene to fashion a coherent whole. For this scene, 1,787 feet of film were exposed, of which 397 will appear on the screen. Aftr cutting, Composer Alfred Newman must write appropriate music with high and low points keyed to action on the screen. Only when this is done and joined with voices on the sound track can the elaborate technical process of shooting a scene be considered complete.
