Joe""s treatment of the screenplay is criticized by clean-cut, Paramount script reader Betty Schaefer (Nancy Olson) - she denounces it in "a two page synopsis" as being written "from hunger," "a rehash of something that wasn""t very good to begin with," and "flat and trite." Paulie degraded his sister and pummeled her self-image - he regarded Adrian as a loser that Rocky shouldn""t even waste his time on."Beginning a heart-warming set of dreamlike sequences, George courts his childhood sweetheart.At the party, they enter a Charleston dance contest, while unbeknownst to them, the jealous rival Freddie plots his revenge.I""ll guarantee you""ll have something out here you wouldn""t find on every corner.I, uh, I may not amount to much in some ways, but I am a good friend...Let me take you back and get your things.Try it for a while, see what happens."[Note: Scenes of Roslyn""s face are always in soft-focus, while the harsh light of the black and white film accentuates the crags and wrinkles on the faces of the cowboys.
