Godwin's Law by Layi Babalola

[krestofre]

The title is a touch obscure, but once you Google it, it makes a certain amount of sense...

Oh cool. Just googled it. That didn't even cross my mind to start with. Pretty cool. It's a good script and it taught me something.

Maybe I'll go in a completely different direction, so the title card reads thus:

New Year's Eve
Year 11 A.R.

That could work. It's specific without being specific. (Specific as in how long since the revolution, without being specific to our current calendar.)

Really liked this one. Very detailed and precise. You clearly put a lot of thought into it. Some of the dialogue reminded me of dialogue from my favorite writers. Love dystopias (Brazil is my fav movie). With two great entries in this fest, you have really impressed me. I'm wondering though, were these screenplays already in the works before the fest?

Hi Jason. Thanks for the compliments. I'm flattered. Who are your favorite writers?

I confess: "Godwin's Law" I came up with before the fest, but "Thalia" was a late idea born of heartache, that I finished on the day of the deadline.

Thanks again.

Wes Anderson, P.T. Anderson, and the gaggle of writers of Lost are up there.
