I wouldn't say it was great.. Buh I liked the creativity, the concept of the 'IMAGE' really worked for me. I also liked the twist at the end, with the whole dolls and the dog. Buh I felt the description of characters as well as the action description left much to be desired. I also feel the dialogue could be improved, a whole lot. Buh all in all, good job!
I'm also a writer like you and a director.

what u av written is not a film script. no slug lines. no location. no time. a film script is not written this way. talent is not all it takes to write.

Gawd! What kind of trash is dis? (Sorry to say).
What does it cost you to say 'oh, I read the story. Bla bla bla but try adding slug lines, then also indicate location and so on...'

You just whined about how it's nt 'qualified' to be cald a script in ur own 'standards'. Nigerians and pull-down syndrome. Smh.

By the way, what nollywood needs to improve now is not sluglines, location or time in their writing,but a sound plot, told in an impressive manner, awesome dialogue and character development.

The script did some of these and that's why it has been commended by many ppl here who probably know more than you do. Did you even bother reading the story co I notice all ur crying was based on how talent is never enough alone?

In the real world, sometimes it is. You sound quite egoistic. Yours is not a criticism, if it is, then it is destructive.

I can consider this as a plot to a bigger and expanded story,where the man will later learn about the tragedy that affected FUNMI.Thompson to bring her back to sanity and a happy ending.Nice story!

ANY short you ever watch and any short EVER made CAN be considered as 'part' of a bigger story. So to state the obvious... this doesn't really say anything. Stories are infinite... they can carry on forever without ending because the imagination of man will never end for as long as we exist.

Same goes for every feature film. The thing is to know 'when' & 'how' to end the tale.

And that 'Paranoia' movie starring Harrison Ford doesn't follow your storyline, so like you said, "the plots are not the same."

Hey our Prof, how now? No I didn't lose anything... the idiot just deleted all my contacts after sending them a badly written 419 mail. Some daft crap like I got mugged in Manila or some place like that and wanted 2800£... who the hell writes 2800£ and not £2800?
How stupid are people? If I had a problem... number one - I would NOT email. Two) WTF - I always have travel insurance. Three) And if worst comes to worst - I'll walk straight into the British High Commission.
Oh well most 419 people must live under rocks if they have no idea of the way the world actually works. They and their stupid easy-to-spot-a-million-miles-away bush persin emails.

Just sending you an email now!
