I cried four times! I thought this screenplay was about a completely different subject. Can't wait to watch the film!

I absolutely adored this screenplay. I could talk for days about the magical manner in which it is presented on the page, the development of the story, the plot twists which made me sob, the small but beautiful nuances and the amount which can be done with minimal dialogue. I read this simultaneously with watching the movie and reading the script and neither of them took away from the other one. Honestly I just loved every second of this.

This was the first script I've ever read. Now, I've read plenty of plays before and they weren't as different as I had thought they'd be, so I'm not a complete novice. It turns out I like the script format. Devoid of lengthy descriptions and purple prose (which is how I like my stories anyway), it leaves so much more to the imagination. Plus, it's kind of impossible to tell here, everything has to be shown.
As for the story itself, it easily captured the attention and didn't let go. The dialogue was vibrant and the characters quite interesting. It wasn't the most original idea, but I suppose to someone so used to reading fantasy, a lot of real-world stuff doesn't seem original anymore. Still, it was short and fast to read and I enjoyed it. It was also a very good intro to reading scripts in general.
