What would have been the greatest moment in cinematic history, bar none.

I was looking for a quote from Being John Malcovich for a film discussion board I frequent, and I happened across Kaufman's original screenplay, which, I kid you not (and look here if you don't believe me), has the following scene, which does make it in the final movie with one major change:

INT. CRAIG AND LOTTE'S LIVING ROOM - DAY

        ...On the TV, Derek Mantini is working a 60 foot high
        marionette from the top of a water tower. The
        assembled crowd is enthralled.

                        TV ANNOUNCER
                The crowd is enthralled as Derek
                Mantini, arguably the greatest
                puppeteer in the history of the
                world, performs "The Belle of
                Amherst" with his 60 foot Emily
                Dickinson puppet, directed by the
                inimitable Charles Nelson Reilly.

        Charles Nelson Reilly floats by in a hot air balloon.

                        CHARLES NELSON REILLY
                Beautiful, beautiful! Nyong-nyong.


I am crying because that did not make the final cut.
