We only call him Bright because that is his name. We continue our analysis of his script MANSON GIRLS. Please note that there is so much historical inaccuracy it is sickening. And bad writing. I hope any financier realizes that what buried THE HURRICANE movie was the inaccuracies. I don't think Sadie was at Esalen being fucked by Charlie. The girls were arrested using a credit card from Mary Vitasek not Gary Hinman. Charlie never had a copycat motive idea. How many errors and stupidity can you find? -----------
ON FAVORING TABLE – showing Charlie giving a massage to Sadie.
ON HIPPIES – looking ever so peaceful, when Sadie is HEARD.
SADIE
Oh, fuck... Yeah...
ON ESALEN CLIENTS – watching Charlie fucking Sadie with these bemused expressions. .
CHARLIE
Who’s your daddy? Tell me who your daddy is?
SADIE
Oh, baby… You’re my daddy… Yeah, you’re
my daddy…
CHARLIE
Flip over, baby! Yeah!
ON CHARLIE – as Sadie enthusiastically flips over to receive Charlie missionary style.
BRENDA NARRATING O.S. cont.
Esalen had a well deserved reputation for being
a real “do your own thing” kind of place, but I
guess Charlie took it a little too far and the
management ended up throwing them both out…
EXT. ESALEN ENTRANCE – DAY
Charlie and Sadie are shoved out the door by a bunch of HIPPIES.
CHARLIE
Yeah, fuck you, you hippie cocksuckers! Fuck
you! You think you’re better than me! You better
watch your backs, motherfuckers! ‘Somebody
might come out’a nowhere an’ cut your goddamn
hearts out, you hear?!
SADIE
Yeah, you fuckin’ people totally bite, you know
that?! Fuckin’ assholes!
Charlie storms angrily away with Sadie following.
SADIE cont.
Charlie, wait up!
INT.
COPS walk in to look at
BRENDA NARRATING O.S.
And then while Charlie and Sadie were off
role playing at Esalen, the cops found
body and immediately put out an APB for his
missing cars…
INT. HIGHWAY 5 –
Bobby Beausoleil is on his belly, crying in the dirt next to
BRENDA NARRATING O.S.
And a couple of days later, wouldn’t you know
it? Bobby got pulled over just outside
in
he’d ever know..
EXT. SEARS ENTRANCE – DAY
Mary Brunner and Sandra Goode are standing outside the entrance to Sears with their hands up against the wall as TWO POLICE OFFICERS handcuff them.
BRENDA NARRATING O.S.
And then the following day, Mary and Sandra
got pinched with a bunch of stolen credit cards...
CUT TO:
EXT. SPAHN RANCH – DUSK
Charlie is obviously in a horrible mood after his ejection from Esalen as he marches up to the ranch with Sadie following
INT. SALOON – FEW MINUTES LATER
SQUEAKY
Hey, Charlie. Hey, Sadie... Did you hear
about Bobby?
CHARLIE
No, what about him?
SQUEAKY
Oh, fuck… Charlie… This is bad… Bobby got
pulled over in
holding him on a fucking murder charge in
CHARLIE
What a dumb shit!
BRENDA
Then this morning Mary and Sandra got caught
with a whole sack full of credit cards!
CHARLIE
That ain’t so bad… But Bobby… That’s bad…
BRENDA
No, no… They tried to use
CLEM
(giggling)
But check it out, man… The cops were too stupid
to put any of it together.
CHARLIE
What, you think they’re not going to figure it
out?!
SADIE
Maybe they won’t.
CHARLIE
You’re a fuckin’ idiot...
(to Squeaky)
What’s their bail?
SQUEAKY
No bail for Bobby… And right now the girl’s
bail is six hundred... But there won’t be any bail
when they realize they’ve got
(beat)
… We’re completely tapped out, Charlie… We’ve
got no money.. You put everything we had into
dune buggies...
BRENDA NARRATING O.S.
And that was when Helter Skelter turned from
being real for us, to being real for everybody
else... See, Charlie figured if the cops were called
to another crime scene that was enough like where
they found
Bobby go...
(beat)
And if he kicked off a race war that toppled the
white, Christian pig power structure while he
was doing it, then so much the better.
