Of the authors' own stated rules from earlier chapters, how many does the five-reel specimen follow, break, leave to judgment or leave untestable, and which existing candidate rows state each rule?
Across 26 rule checks drawn from earlier chapters (each tied to pinned lines and, where one exists, to an existing candidate row), the specimen follows 10, breaks 6, partly follows 2, leaves 3 to a reader's judgment and leaves 5 untestable from the text. It follows the structure and notation rules that can be parsed: order of parts, straight-through numbering, leaders written before the numbered scene, numbered busts and close-ups, present tense, sketching of difficult scenes, rare use of the interpose device. It breaks four notation rules that the authors' own Chapter V sample follows (no 'Back to scene' after 58 cut-ins, no 'same as N' on 60 returns, no scene numbers in the cast list, no descriptive line under the title) and two others (a leader before scene 1, lighting stated in 15 headings). The chapter tells the reader to study the script, footnote 37 says the author's nomenclature differs from Leeds's, and the authors say producers differed, so 'breaks' is a divergence from th...

- [inference] Across 26 rule checks drawn from earlier chapters (each tied to pinned lines and, where one exists, to an existing candidate row), the specimen follows 10, breaks 6, partly follows 2, leaves 3 to a reader's judgment and leaves 5 untestable from the text. It follows the structure and notation rules that can be parsed: order of parts, straight-through numbering, leaders written before the numbered scene, numbered busts and close-ups, present tense, sketching of difficult scenes, rare use of the interpose device. It breaks four notation rules that the authors' own Chapter V sample follows (no 'Back to scene' after 58 cut-ins, no 'same as N' on 60 returns, no scene numbers in the cast list, no descriptive line under the title) and two others (a leader before scene 1, lighting stated in 15 headings). The chapter tells the reader to study the script, footnote 37 says the author's nomenclature differs from Leeds's, and the authors say producers differed, so 'breaks' is a divergence from the book's recommended form, not an error. Counts, statuses and the choice of rules are this worker's; the rule list is not exhaustive. (1919 practice.) · locator: candidate evidence excerpts source
