Uma Thurman's character (that is her, right?) is not too bright if you ask me, so not necessarily only the domain of teenagers.

Just gonna put this out there. Stupidity will not be a part of this challenge.  


I'm not interested in coming up with a crazy twist or anything like that. I like my stories Simple. Straightforward. A to B. No C.

Quoted from Anon
Not up to me but can I suggest no minimum page count? My heart always sinks when I haven’t got time and hey - if you can write a story in 1-page it’s a good skill to practice!


I like this with modification.  Past OWCs have included "stretch pages" - i.e., the story was effectively told in five page - than stretched to meet the requirement. I would be a fan of something like:

No less than 3 pages - not more than 12

Damn, guess I better stop writing for good, huh?  No skills, and and "beaten" by not only a 2 page script, but yours.  I guess I'm all done.


It's for the best.

I'm not getting these hints at all lol

All I'm getting from them is vehicles and peril from an unknown/stranger adversary

Two steps to writing a good screenplay:
1) Write a bad one
2) Fix it
