Okay, first of all the page count is too much for a short and too little for a feature length film. With the actual script itself, keep the action lines at the most 4 lines long. The longline seems like it could be an interesting story; That being said, I might read it.

Hi - this was a little tricky to read... I can see that English isn't your first language, but your script needs re-working quite a lot.

This looks like a first attempt at a screenplay.

I was left wondering if you know the author or not, as a google search reveals him to be quite well established, which leaves me wondering if he would give his blessing to you adaptation? Not sure really.

Thank you for your input....What about the quality itself?? What do you think of the structure, or the characters, etc...???
