CUT TO:
Brief silent shots:
EXT. RAINBOW THEATRE – ROOF – MORNING – 1975
Urine streaming in a puddle.
CLOSE ON Teenage Arthur watching Curt from behind. The remains of his Maxwell Demon make-up sully his face.
Curt, standing peeing, turns.
Following that scene in the script, Curt grins as he speaks to Arthur then playfully tackles him as he reclines on the mattress early the next morning. These scenes, coming right after the quote 'a man's life is his image' paradoxically prove the opposite. Curt's image is that of a volatile rock god who might deign to give his fans a sneering fuck you, or if they're lucky, a brusque fuck. The Curt that Arthur remembers in flashback is a tender lover and affable company in the morning after. He's a mere mortal who pees like everyone else.
