SHOOTING DRAFT
EXT. CLEVELAND STREET - NIGHT (1970)
Rain. Christmas lights. A rusted out '56 Lincoln rattles
down the bleak boulevard. In it: JOE STEVENS, an angry, black
man in his late 20's, beside him his 10-year-old son, JOE
JR.
Joe Jr. stares out the window at passing: boarded buildings,
whores with raincoats over their heads trying to flag down a
john, a black Santa, a knot of drinkers. Breaking the silence:JOE STEVENS
Your mother okay?JOE JR.
