Parade The Musical Script Pdf: The Story Behind the Songs and Characters

(There is a burst of military drums as a crowd of TOWNSPEOPLEemerges from both wings running into place to observe a parade.Mingling, they turn their backs on the audience. LIGHTS bump UP toreveal Peachtree Street in Atlanta, Georgia. It is April 26,1913fifty-one years later, and the town is out and about, busy inpreparations for the Confederate Memorial Day Parade. The sun isnot shiningit is a decidedly overcast day, but nothing stopsAtlanta from its business. This is the heart of industrial Georgia,and this frenetic city is as far removed as possible from thegentility of Marietta and the antebellum South. In the distance, wehear a MARCHING BAND as the Confederate Memorial Day Paradeapproaches off stage. The YOUNG SOLDIER moves down stage. A fussymale AIDE and his female ASSISTANT in 1913 attire bring on an armchair and seat the soldier.)

(During the following, a parade passes upstage out of view ofour audience. All that we can see are masses of Confederate flags,the tops of musical instruments, an occasional baton flying in theair, the top of a float or two, dignitaries standing in an opencar, maybe the top of a carriage with celebrants, a child or two onsomeone's shoulders. The entire panoply of a parade as seen fromthe viewpoint of someone standing five deep in a crowd.)

Based on the novel by Tom Perrotta, this is a skillfully woven tale of suburban angst that retains a very novelistic feel. An excellent case study in how to make voiceover work for and not against your script.

This is arguably a better script than the one McCarthy won the best screenplay Oscar for: Spotlight. Beautifully tight and sparse writing about a lonely professor learning to loosen up after discovering a couple of illegal immigrants living in his New York apartment.

Written on spec by writing team Lucas and Moore (Four Christmases, Ghosts Of Girlfriends Past), this script is a near-perfect execution of a very high concept. Along with (500) Days of Summer, this is probably the best screenplay to come out in 2009.

Johnson has said of writing the script he wanted it to be character based rather than focus on the mechanics of time-travel. He drew inspiration from movies such as The Terminator, 12 Monkeys, and Witness. One of the best screenplays to read if you love mixing sci-fi with ironic humor and time-travel.

The Wachowskis pitched the script to Warner Bros. who were initially skeptical of its philosophical musings and tricky SFX for the time. They then decided to bring on board underground comic book artists Steve Skroce and Geof Darrow to storyboard the entire film, shot-by-shot. Warners were impressed and the rest, as they say, is history.

Three of the best script writers in Hollywood collaborated for this modern classic. Beattie originally had the idea for the movie aged seventeen while riding in the back of a cab in his native Sydney. He then worked up a two-page treatment called The Last Domino, which he turned into a screenplay. Later he was lucky enough to be put in touch with Darabont and then Mann who both contributed revisions.

Many of the tropes have been copied almost to the point of cliche by a generation of later writers. But this script was groundbreaking for its time and is impossible to ignore if you want to learn how to become a screenwriter.

The origins of this spec screenplay are just as creepy as the film. As Reddick recounts, he was given the idea by a real-life story of a woman whose life was saved by her mom who warned her not to take a flight that wound up crashing. Reddick then wrote the script as an X-Files spec but was advised by a friend to reshape it into a feature.

This script was born purely out of budgetary restrictions as writers Whannell and Wan deliberately wanted to write a horror film as cheaply as possible. One that they could finance themselves. Inspired by low-budget movies such as Pi and The Blair Witch Project, they decided on the concept of two actors, one room, and one dead body. Easily one of the best screenplays to read for horror writers.

The industrious members of the Budapest Women's Club (pronounced "Bu-DAP-est") come together for an annual tradition: the crafting of the holiday parade float. But under the surface of this pleasant gathering, the women find themselves grappling with sexuality, betrayal, and their own hard and fast notions of right and wrong. In this ode to the complicated undercurrents of Midwestern morality, you'll meet Marty, Luce, Char, Arletta, and Doodee -- five women who face the tests life presents to them with laughter, love, and a lot of fake snow.
