[Movie Script]Broken Embraces

                                    BROKEN EMBRACES





Written by

Pedro Almodovar












          DUSK, OR NIGHT HAS ONLY BARELY FALLEN.

















          A huge clock marks 7:55 p.m. (The clock belongs to some landmark

building, to be determined). Immediately following, the building goes

dark.
Establishing shot of the Eiffel Tower, lit. Suddenly, all the lights

go out.
The same thing happens with the Granada's Alhambra, Seville's Giralda

Tower, the Guggenheim at Bilbao, the Gate of Alcala. All these well-

known architectonic wonders turn dark, abruptly. (Beauty that

disappears suddenly, beauty that's extinguished and envelops us in

darkness.)
















          1. HARRY CAINE'S HOME. INT. NIGHT.
