The Voice of a Generation by Stephen Hoover - Short, Mockumentary - The partly fictionalized story of a '60s folksinger and his heavily fictionalized impact on a completely fictionalized world. 15 pages - pdf, format

This script really confused me.

To start off, all the camera shots should be taken out of the script.

Also, you have CONTINUE on all of your pages, but that's the least of your problems.

I have no problem with voiceovers, but man oh man, all the dialouge (it looks like) is the narrator. Speaking of the narrator, why does he not have a name? It is hard for me to believe that his actual name is Narrator. I have no clue whether that is intentional or not, but it doesn't look right.

After reading a few pages, the narrator (I guess that's his name) gets a bit too much. I have no clue what is happening in the story, and right now, I just don't care.

One thing that I do love a lot is your title. That is the reason I started to read, you had a good title. Unfortunately, the rest of the script is just not very good.

Stephen, this is simply hilarious!  A wonderful hybrid of Monty Python, Woody Allen and Christopher Guest.  I laughed so hard I almost peed myself.  This HAS to be made, and I would love to be the narrator.

I can't wait to print his and have my wife read it.

Great job!

Hey Stephen,

I thought this was absolutely hilarious! A handful of typos etc aside, really, really funny.

It reminded me so much of 'The Rutles', which is a great compliment.

If you sort out the formatting and typo errors, you could be on to a winner here.

Very amusing, clever pythonesque humour, and a lovely, fast read. This could even benefit with a bit of expansion IMO.

Good job

Craig

You do realize that it's a mockumentary, right?

Oh, sorry I didn't see it was a mockumentary. I kinda missed that. My fault.

A. . .'rockumentary', if you will.    I still think this script rocks.  I haven't stopped laughing about it yet today!!
