Jumping around a script

One of the problems of fine tuning the outline for a movie are the
sudden shifts of time and place.

I mean - I just spent 30 intense minutes immersing myself in two lovers,
having a soul-scarifying last conversation in an iced-up Berlin cafe, in
1947 - and now I have to decompress enough to dive into an action
sequence in African sunlight seven years earlier.

I need more coffee.
(No gin for at least another 10 hours!)
