Laura's diary in the movie

Post by MFAP »

Can anyone make out what Laura's diary entries say when she flips through it in her bedroom. Can't quite make anything out on my lame screen.

Meh...thought I'd reply to my own topic question. I always wanted to know if it was an entry from the printed version so I used photoshop to make it a bit clearer...so far i have...

Dear Diary,
Things haven't been so
? here we are working late
and everybody is very tired. Alot
of people are catching colds +
......

Will try and decipher the rest soon. I find it interesting that this entry isn't in the printed version.[/img]

Bumping this because I saw the movie in theater not so long ago and it seemed that with the 4K release someone could read the whole pages but sadly I don't own one.

The best screenshots I could find on the internet were these ones but they are not even 1080p:

The one on page 3 is clearly a copy of a page from the novel:
Dear Diary,
I spent the afternoon
with Dr. Jacoby at his office.
He wanted to see me and
go over what I had said
to him on my tapes. He
wanted to hear more about
James Hurley and the fact
that I had mentioned going
sober because of him. I
told him James was some
one I had known for a
long time, although not so
well. I told him I had
fallen in love with his
purity and the idea that
if I was strong enough I could let James take me

(which does not makes much sense since Leland does not seem to be unsure of their relationship in the movie, the other pages do not match the novel so they should be completely new)

The site above also has screen grabs from episode 15 but I can't decipher it either:

Can anybody help?
