Scene: 41.1 - EXT. VIRGINIA WOODS - NIGHTUnder the full moon, John Casor has taken over drumming duties on the largest of the log-drums. The rhythms have heated up. A series of shots captures the festivities. Blacks and whites intermingle fluidly. A few revelers appear tipsy from the ale. One of them breaks into an Irish-style dance, and people surround him and clap. Amy has donned a bodice and dances alongside a topless black girl. One of the black drummers hands over his sticks to a white boy, and he gets into the rhythm. John Casor hands an extra set of sticks to Virginia. She stands next to him, picks up the rhythm, and gives it a go.
