the fabulous baker boys

'...the woman I first saw in The Fabulous Baker Boys, flopped over a grand piano in a slinky, little cocktail dress singing Makin' Whoopee...and after seeing that film I had to sit in the cinema for the next two sessions because I wasn't ready to stand up, just yet.'
Danny Katz - Melbourne Age 11th November 1999

Several scenes from various revisions of The Fabulous Baker Boys screenplay never made it into the finished movie.

Most of the scenes from the NOVEMBER 1988 draft, possibly all of them, were actually filmed, however it's unlikely that any of the scenes exclusive to the earlier APRIL 1985 draft made it before the cameras.

Complete copies of these two screenplays are available under
THE SCREENPLAYS section.

The following pages (click below) feature a list of the major scenes that never made the final movie, with links to the screenplay excerpts, notes and (occasionally) even photos.
