You must work your imagination just as hard in cutting the picture as in writing the story. Seize those elusive laughs when they turn up in a chance bit of celluloid and utilize them. In the same way, wonderful pathos may be found in some scene which was planned simply as part of the routine of the plot.

Scenes which you thought would have a good "punch" often prove disappointments. The camera did not grasp your subtleties, or the train wreck was not as thrilling as you expected it would be. It is better to cut out such a scene entirely than to go on with your original idea of making it the mainstay of the story. Often the director will assemble the cast and make another scene, if the author suggests such a step as a means of saving the picture.
