i hope your writing another film, this flick really caught me by suprise, I disagree with these complaints about the dialogue, as an aspiring filmmaker myself i can say that if the actor's were directed better the dialogue would of been considered as brilliant. Being as this is your first feature length, your potential is outstanding, but my only complaint is that the film wasn't long enough, so it felt abit rushed

Thank you for the kind words. I have several scripts waiting patiently on the shelf. And, I consider writing to be a therapeutic hobby, so I'm always scribbling on something. The original director and I had beefed up the script to be about an hour and forty-five minutes. When the new director stepped in, it was cut to an hour and a half. The piece lost a couple of good scenes, along with some back story and explanations.

Best of luck in your creative endeavors.

And, Merry Christmas!

Kindest regards,

Eddie

Wow, thank you for replying, it was very much obvious that there was more to the characters then what was shown in the film. i look forward to the stories you have yet to tell. Oh I dont want to ruin the end of a nice exchange of words, but please get the British actor Marc Warren some work. I know it probably has nothing to do with you, but it should be illegal that an actor that good is still not A-list. Happy New Year.
