DESCRIPTION
From the person known as The Hopless Cynic, comes a script with a unique take on teen life, more specifically, previous events in my life. I hoped to immortalize it on film, but it was not to be. Enjoy! Dedicated to Ryan Babcock, and all of my MTV Generation brethren. [18,379 words]
ABOUT
THE AUTHOR
I used to be a hopless romantic, your average Lloyd Dobler. But at 19, I'm re-evaluating my life. I am becoming a realist, more like a Rob Gordon. Niether optimistic nor pessimistic (well, I'll try) but sensible. The cosmic connection that I've spent my entire life looking for is probably still out there, I'm just no longer obsessed with finding it. And I'm happy about that. For once in the last year and a half, I'm happy... sort of.
I'm a writer mainly (short stories/screenplays) and an aspiring film maker. I am currently directing a film that I wrote called How to Escape a Black Hole . It's all about the hassles of living in a small town and feeling trapped within. I like to meet other film makers out there doing the same things I'm doing, so drop me a line sometime, ya hear? [November 2002]

" Holy crap! This was absolutly one of the best screeplays I've read. I read it to the end in one sitting I was completely into it the whole way. I just had to see how it ended. I totally felt like all the charaters were real and unique (but I guess that comes from the fact that it's straight out of your life). I was happy with them and sad with them too. A perfect piece. Keep it up, please. I want more... To be constructive...I personally believe it could have done without so much foul language. It's true that that is the teen experiance but I feel like it did detract from the story. Other than that and the usual speeling mistakes and sucj it was awsome." -- Matthew White, USA, CA.
