Every scene you mention, I referenced. I had to cover a lot of ground.

You gloss over some of the best scenes: Compare the beginning funeral walk with the ending funeral walk and the approach of Lime to the ferris wheel and his leaving. The threat at the top of the wheel is only verbal but amazingly violent. Wilfred Hyde-White is wonderful as comic relief.
