Dear All,
I like the information about museums and fims. I am not sure if you already
have this one - it is from Batman 2. and here is a part from the script
which can be found at www.batman-on-film.com under scripts. I like it very
much!
Best wishes,
Bozidar Zrinski,
curator at the Internationl Centre of graphic Arts, Ljubljana, Slovenia

INT. MUSEUM - ATRIUM - THAT MOMENT

        PURPLE SMOKE plumes up as we TILT DOWN toward the floor
        of the atrium.  PATRONS lie sprawled on the floor,
        twisted at odd angles, out cold.

        The doors BURST OPEN and IN WALKS Joker, looking dapper
        in his street makeup and BIG PURPLE POP ARTIST'S HAT.
        He is surrounded by his entourage of UGLY GOONS.  One is
        carrying a huge GHETTO BLASTER which is thumping out
        MUSIC, others are toting battles of champagne and glasses,
        and all have cans of aerosol paint sticking out of their
        packets.  This is a moving nonstop party.  The Joker
        wanders past the artwork examining it with an apprecia-
        tive eye.

                                JOKER
                  Okay, everybody, let's broaden our
                  minds.

        Stepping over collapsed PATRONS, he stops at "BLUE BOY"
        and holds up a PEARL-HANDLED CANE to get a better
        perspective.  Then he pulls a THIN, SHARP SWORD from the
        head of the cane and carves a BIG JOKER SMILE in the
        canvas.

        Manet's barmaid, a Degas ballerina -- all get the Zorro
        treatment.  Behind him, his UGLY CRONIES go to work,
        spraying paint on every canvas The Joker has missed.

        He cocks an eyebrow at Edvard Munch's "THE SCREAM."

                                JOKER
                  I kinda like this one.  Leave it.
