Is switching who a character is talking to mid-speech frowned upon?
TOMMY
It was back, like behind a bunch of other stuff.
(to Noah)
You really shouldn’t eat that dude
In the above example, it would seem unwieldy to have to put TOMMY again and then have him talking to Noah. I have seen switching mid-speech done in scripts I've read, but I was wondering if it's the preferred way of doing things.
