Well, maybe there never was a house, but there was a good story! A Twilight like story with an upbeat ending that I thought would be different: - Maybe she was dead, and the smell of the shirt was a link to her past life. - Maybe this was going to be a Misery makeover. - Or could it have been a hallucination when she woke up in her car after the crash? I like the writer's choice much better!
This is a nicely written script with good-natured vibes. I predicted early on that something awful would happen, and it was a pleasant surprise when it didn't. Of course, there's the mysterious end. I think it might make a little more sense if the medical worker knew that Michael had passed away long ago. Otherwise, it becomes completely random...a house materializing from nothing.
I just wanted to thank everyone who read and commented on my script. As always, I appreciate your kindness and your solid advice. I sat down and wrote the entire thing, from beginning to end, in a couple hours and it was eight pages long. So of course I had to go back through and trim the unnecessary fat to bring it down to the required six pages. One thing I omitted was the scene where Anna wakes. I originally had her see a Cardinal outside the window when she first opened her eyes - assuming you’re familiar with the saying, “When Cardinals appear, angels are near”. Just another hint at what might be going on. I really wish I had left that in and if I go back and rewrite some of this, that redbird will be the first thing that I will resurrect.
Once again, thank you all for your words of wisdom. I learn so much from these OWCs and this one was no exception. Hugs to everyone!
