1st Scene Performance: It Came Upon A Mid-Nightmare, by Gregory Lane (plus interview)
I distane most common screenplay iron clad “rules”. Scripts have to be this exactly this long or by page 30 exactly this has to happen. Film history tells us this is not always the case. However some “fundamental rules” I believe do apply. They can’t be broken, it’s in our guts and human nature. The idea that you must grab hold of your audience in the first 10 minutes is fundamental as a story teller. I appreciate a festival that sees the potential in getting someone to keep turning the pages of a screenplay to find out what happens next.
