» estos van a 11.»
this is Spinal Tap es todavía el estándar de oro en mockumentaries. Dado que la mayor parte del diálogo de la película es improvisado, también pensé que sería interesante ver el guion, escrito por Christopher Guest & Michael McKean & Harry Shearer & Rob Reiner, a partir del cual trabajó el elenco., Todo el guion está escrito de esta manera, por lo que solo tiene 60 páginas.
Aquí está la famosa escena De «These go to 11» con el director documental Marty (Rob Reiner) entrevistando al rocker Nigel (Christopher Guest) en medio de todas las guitarras y amplificadores que ha adquirido a lo largo de los años.,
INT. DETROIT CONCERT VENUEDuring the soundcheck, Nigel is showing Marty
DiBroma his large collection of guitars, including
a cordless model which plays through its amp by
means of a tiny radio transmitter. It's like
watching a kid show off his toys. He points out
that he has his amps customized with special dials.
Unlike most amps, whose highest volume level is
indicated by a "10" on the dials, Nigel's dials go
up to 11.
Aquí está una transcripción de la última parte del diálogo de la escena de la película:
Nigel Tufnel: The numbers all go to eleven. Look, right across the board, eleven, eleven, eleven and...
Marty DiBergi: Oh, I see. And most amps go up to ten?
Nigel Tufnel: Exactly.
Marty DiBergi: Does that mean it's louder? Is it any louder?
Nigel Tufnel: Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten. You see, most blokes, you know, will be playing at ten. You're on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on ten on your guitar. Where can you go from there? Where?
Marty DiBergi: I don't know.
Nigel Tufnel: Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do?
Marty DiBergi: Put it up to eleven.
Nigel Tufnel: Eleven. Exactly. One louder.
Marty DiBergi: Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder?
Nigel Tufnel: These go to eleven.
