    Confession - A Short Film Script

    I enjoyed it. Some nice dialogue in there. I'd try to specify where they are within the church. Was the man just sitting? Confessional? And then change up the scenery a bit. Have the pastor stand over him, then sit beside then the final standing of both. Other than that I liked it.

    Okay, My Turn

    Sorry for the delay. Had work. I liked it. Caught myself laughing out loud twice I counted, which is good. Opening hooked me. Characters are set up nicely, each one different/ dynamic. You got any tentative titles, yet?

    Kubricy

    Finally! I agree. But with Ernest too. The films they nominate do deserve it and are better than the everyday film. Very valid point. But seriously. How many times do they screw it up? Every year im angered. Every year. I think its better for a director to not win one because then their put...

    Kubricy

    Ive heard that Kubrick had consider reinventing modern porn. I cant recall the name right now but i really truly wish he would have done that. And youve actually sort of compelled me to. Maybe when im real old. Ill watch it then die. Cirlce complete.

    Kubricy

    Very very valid point. I forgot to mention 2001. I still haven't got to see The Killing and Barry Lyndon. Small cities Blockbusters and National Videos majorly lack. Even on the Internet I couldn't find Lyndon. I just wish he would've made more. Guess thatxwas his artistic process and that's...

    Kubricy

    I love Kubrick of course. I've seen almost all of his films except A Clockwork Orange and never plan to. Hate rape. But his others films are amazing. I agree with everything you said except The acting is miraculous. In the Shining, Shelly shrieks continuously and is weak probably Kubricks...

    I think There Will Be Blood is an absolute classic. And will be put in the top of the top in years time.

    Zen. Yeah I agree with you. That would've been the smarter thing to do. I'll definitely look those up. It's a short on Two pill poppers and their close call with a drug dealer. It's interesting. I think I've improved tons from this short. I hope. Thanks Zen.

    How to hang someone on film?

    Thanks for the ideas guys. Great point on the closet being used. Also, CF I had already planned on getting just the lower half of the body. More effective. Actor holding a rope is what I'm going to have to try. Thanks again guys.
