Daisy Miller/Trailer transcripts

After a black-and-white version of the "COMING FROM PARAMOUNT" logo, a clip from Paper Moon begins, with Moses Pray (Ryan O'Neal) and his daughter Addie (Tatum O'Neal) in a car
:Moses: We ain't gonna make it! (He presses the accelerator pedal on his car, and continues to escape from the police)
:Announcer: Last year, Peter Bogdanovich gave you the moon. (Cut to color behind-the-scenes footage) This year... Peter Bogdanovich... has made a movie... in color. (A clip of the title character is shown, walking around with an umbrella) Daisy Miller. Starring Cybill Shepherd. (Cut to Peter and Cybill together)
:Peter: Cybill Shepherd, you remember her from The Heartbreak Kid, and, uh, The Last Picture Show? (As he says this, Cybill puts her mitten over her face) She's Daisy Miller.
:Cybill: I'm mysterious.
:Peter: Mysterious... (Cut to him at the camera) Okay, here we go, Cybill?
:Cybill: Yeah?
:Peter: Second position. (Cut to her in costume) Here we go, ready? (Back to Peter at the camera) And, action!
Cut to a clip of a violin player, with these titles over it: "THE DIRECTORS COMPANY PRESENTS A PETER BOGDANOVICH PRODUCTION," followed by the film's title, with a copyright stamp underneath it. It pans over to the rest of the string quartet before the nobleman walks in
:Nobleman: Miss Miller!
:Man 1: Daisy Miller?
:Frederick Winterbourne (Barry Brown): Uh, Daisy seems to be happy anyway.
:Mrs. Miller (Cloris Leachman): Ah, yes. It's on account of the society. (Cut outside)
:Daisy: I've always had a great deal with gentlemen society.
:Frederick: ...I see.
:Mrs. Miller: She's made a great many acquaintances.
:Daisy: I know every sort of people, and they're all so charming.
:Mrs. Miller: And then she knows a great many gentlemen.
:Daisy: They're all kind, English, Germans, Italians... I think I like the English best!
:Frederick: Well, I think she's very innocent.
:Mrs. Walker (Eileen Brennan): She's very reckless.
:Man 1: She's suddenly pretty.
:Frederick: ...yes. She's a mystery.
:Daisy: You're funny.
:Frederick: Am I? (Turns his hat)
:Mrs. Miller: Frederick... she's a young lady who has an intimacy with her mama's courier. (Frederick stops sipping his tea)
:Frederick: ...does she? An intimacy? (In a different scene) But what do you hear about Daisy Miller?
:Mrs. Walker: Flirty with any man she can pick up.
:Daisy: Well... what'd you believe now?
:Frederick: I mean, she's just... kind of an American girl and that's that.
:Daisy: Mr. Winterbourne?
:Frederick: Yes?
:Daisy: Will you sit down?
Frederick sits down and the pianist plays. After this, Daisy begins to sing, which crossfades into more violin as the scene changes to an outdoor scene.
:Daisy: You think I'm teasy?
:Frederick: Aren't you?
After a beat, Daisy takes Frederick's hat and plays keep-away with it before putting it back on, all while chucking mildly
:Mrs. Walker: I really think you should stop.
:Frederick: Stop?
:Mrs. Walker: Encouraging the girl. Flirting with yourself.
After another clip of the couple, it's back to Mrs. Walker
:Mrs. Walker: You're old enough, dear Ms. Miller, to be talked about.
:Daisy: Talked about? What do you mean? (Mrs. Walker says nothing) I don't think I wanna know what you mean.
The scene goes back to Daisy singing, then a shot of the countryside, followed by Frederick and Daisy in the carriage
:Man 1: Wouldn't it be funny if they were both perfectly innocent and sincere and have no idea of the impression they're creating?
:Mrs. Miller: ...no, it wouldn't be funny.
As the both of them leave...
:Announcer: Daisy Miller.
A frame zooms out onto a shot of Daisy, which slides to the left. The credits play on, and the trailer fades.
