The Artist Scene 28 Summary

  • When George comes to (he wakes himself up coughing), he's in Peppy's majestic guest room (complete with ruched satin bed frame).
  • Peppy enters his room, dressed in satin just like the bed, and they embrace.
  • He faints in her arms and she leaves him to rest.
  • In the morning, Peppy brings George breakfast in bed and they chat and giggle together like old friends.
  • Peppy is a very animated storyteller, and George delights in her.
  • When she tells him she has to leave to "shoot a very important scene," George looks wistful and downtrodden.
  • Peppy feels bad because she knows George longs to work in film again.
