Hey every one,
I'm working on a screenplay where the beginning has a lot of voice-over between two different characters, very similar to Casino.
The two voice-overs are of the protagonist and antagonist.
I would say that for the first 15 pages/minutes there is about 70% voice-over and 30% dialogue, as far as words go.
After the first 15 minutes, the voice-over drops to about 15% and there is a lot more dialogue.
The screenplay will be about 110 pages/minutes long.
In your opinion, do you think having as much voice-over as I do in the first 15 minutes is excessive? I would really appreciate any help and advice I can get, this has been bothering me.
Thanks.
