Leckie never stop being a smartass
Fuzzy as hell, but original Currahee script opened with more chatter leading up to D-Day Take 1, Mr. Lucky, and Dick going for a walk by himself and a V.O. of his letter to DeEtta and no Nix, No 'We'll go to Chicago', No 'Should have been born earlier',...
WHY ARE SMOKEY AND EUGENE SLEDGE MEETING RN
AHHHH SOMEBODY PINCH ME
i adore how book accurate the scripts are. i so wish they kept this scene and all the other book accurate scenes in the scripts like eugene hallucinating. it’s so harrowing. ugh :(
Hillbilly and Sledge smiling at each other being the last thing Hillbilly ever does...Sledge refusing to leave Hillbilly....
we as a society do not talk about this scene enough
Hillbilly continues to be iconic 😫
THE WAY WE WERE ROBBED??!?!?!?
i'll say this again we were SO robbed of the hilldane campfire scene
goddamn these bitches on a date huh good for them
Why We Fight script, Dick is so excited for his bestie that he got another star on his jump wings. That's MY man out there being a badass and doing extra work and shit.
the naive optimism and belief of eugene's vs. the cynicism and distaste for religion of leckie's is so amazingly exemplified in the script — and also makes the hostility of leckie towards sledge more apparent, as it's kind of unclear in the actual scene. eugene's “then don't believe” and leckie's response is hilarious as well
* @atomicradiogirl found the script for episode 5 of the pacific and im so so grateful! check out her post here
