Beginnings

Sunday! Beginnings! Since The Fan came up yesterday let see the start of that. It begins with a sports talk radio scene. I used a few of them in the book as a sort of Greek chorus.

“Who’s next? Gil on the car phone? What’s shakin’, Gil?”
Dead air.
“Speak, Gil.”
“Is this …”
“Go on.”
“Hello?”
“You’re on the JOC.”
“Am I on?”
“Not for long, Gil, the way we’re going. This is supposed to be entertainment.”
Dead air.

(I can’t remember if they used the Greek chorus thing in the movie. Robert de Niro played Gil. The Fan is available digitally from Amazon and all the rest.)
