Week 004 - Scripts
Am reading through scripts.
There's a great site movie-page.com.
I downloaded Lost in Translation from it - and was just struck at how wonderfully written it was - all 138 pages.
So I am on the hunt for more scripts - just as a read and to gather a good feel for how it is structured. I'm trying to stick with movies I know so I can get a visual in my head as well as reading the words.
I ran into La Jette (12 Monkeys adapted from it) and it just read like a story! I know that it was a montage film anyway, lots of still images, but it was interesting to see it all just like a narrative.
Hence how the story could function as a script anyway.
But I thought it'd be good to get a crack at it.
I tried to script VB in the past, but it always got horrifically stuck.
