the last leaf
Storyboard Text
- Sue and Johnsy, two young artists, share a small flat. The flat was on the third storey of an old house.
- "Is anything worrying Johnsy?" "No, but why do you ask?" "Johnsy, it seems like, has made up her mind that she is not going to get well. If she doesn't want to live, medicines will not help her."
- One morning the doctor spoke to Sue alone in the hall where Johnsy could not hear. Johnsy fell very seriously ill in November. She had pneumonia.
- Sue tried her best to make Johnsy take an interest in things around her. Suddenly Sue heard Johnsy whisper something. She quickly rushed to the bed and heard Johnsy counting backward. She was looking outside the window and was saying.
- Twelve-eleven-ten-nine-eight-seven
- Sue told Mr.Brehrman how Johnsy was convinced that she would die when the last leaf falls.
- Is she stupid? How can she be so foolish?
- When Sue goes to Johnsy's room in the morning, Johnsy says she wants to see the tree. Sue uncovers the window. Even with all the rain and snow, one leaf clings to the tree near the wall. It is dark green at the top but yellowing on the ends, and it hangs nearly 20 feet above the ground. Johnsy is surprised that the leaf is there.
- Sue tried her best to make Johnsy take an interest in things around her. She talked about clothes and fashions, but Johnsy continued to lie still on her bed. Sue brought her drawing-board into Johnsy's room and started painting. To take Johnsy's min off her illness, she whistled while working.
