| Description: | THE PIE-EATERS A pie eating competition - all the competitors are young women. Girls' pie eating contest in what looks like small town in America. United States MLS row of teenage girls crouched in front of a crowd of spectators in summer clothing. At signal race starts - pan w/ girls running left to long table. MLS diag. view other side of table: girls are bent over eating pies without using their hands; pan along the row of girls sticking their faces in pies. MLS along backs of the girls, all wearing various cotton print dresses w/ knee-length hems. CU girl eating pie; she chews as fast as she can then dives down for another bite. MS pan on heads of more pie-eaters. LS tilt down: very American-looking crowd gathered around the long table and a few movie cameraman in front of table; girls are just standing there now so the contest must be over. MS winner of contest stands in front of table holding trophy and smiling; other girls behind table suddenly give a wave and grin at each other. They all look remarkably clean for having just been sticking their faces in pies! They must have had a chance to wash up a bit. Contests, eating, food, silly, wacky, teenagers, festivals, USA | |
