Review of The Tenth Reel

This …

GEOFFREY JACKMAN (40s) pauses at the door

*I’d put ‘pauses at the door’ at the end since you do an insert right after the intro.

one-thousand dollar bills

*Did they have those back then?

I had to watch the twist take it on the
heel and toe

*Great line.

Dorothy Manley. Just got in from New York.

*Just got in? Hasn’t she been dumped and replaced already, and wedding planned?

DREAM NOTE:

*also referred to as an ASIDE.

He sits at a massive desk, a coffee
pot and a steaming cup next to him.

*Probably was a percolator.

This …

The director pulls ten more film canisters from the bottom
drawer in the desk

*That makes 11. I guess I’ll find out as I read.

Nice fast read! Nice twist at the end, but unsure if Leneta was involved in setting that up or not. Kinda hints at it.

Is Geoffrey a secret admirer? Don’t quite get his reason for wanting to hire a detective.

Ok, re-read, and it’s the original and ten prints. That makes eleven.

Nice story/concept. A few questions unanswered, but very enjoyable.

Cool script! Really enjoyed it. Fun to see something so old adapted, because it just reminds me how f'd up people were 70 years ago, and how little we've changed.

All my criticisms have already been voiced.

Oh, Alex, I think the title does not include the master reel, it only refers to the prints. Kind of confusing though, I admit. And I imagine it would be hard to run off with 10 reels. How big are said reels? Would they be smaller cause it's just a porno?
