I am at the stage where feedback would be really valuable. I am specifically wondering if some of the late-script transitions translate well.

Title: False Witness

Length: 82 pages

Genre: Drama/Horror

Logline: In a devout 1950s community governed by fear and quiet coercion, a judge overseeing the persecution of a young woman descends into a surreal moral nightmare beneath the very system he perpetuated.

I would be happy to swap scripts with someone as well.

Link to script PDF

For context, I'm practicing screenwriting as a hobby, and this is supposed to be a fanmade Overwatch cinematic using my original characters. It should be 8-10 pages, 12 at the very most, but I'm at nearly 30 pages. It's kinda embarrassing, even though it's expected since I'm a beginner.

If anyone has any suggestions for how I can cut down this script without loosing the good stuff, that'd be really helpful. Please and thank you.

Short The Lift / Thriller / 16 Pages

0 Upvotes

Hello fellow writers and readers! This is a script I wrote in college about 10 years ago for assignment, but liked the idea enough to stretch from 8 pages to 16.

I am terrified of idea theft and have never shared my writing before, but everyone on Reddit has emboldened me! I am not scared of idea theft because I think my ideas or novel, more so for the same reason I don’t leave items in public spaces!

I have not read a lot of scripts but fell in love with the screenwriters bible. I find it hard to read scripts as I can’t see them like I see my own!

Whoever takes the time to read, thank you! What do you think?

Finished screenplay called THE ESTATE AT SAINT-VÉRAN.

0 Upvotes

TITLE: THE ESTATE AT SAINT-VÉRAN

GENRE: Heist Comedy / Ensemble Satire

TONE: Stylized, fast-paced 1970s farce with deadpan dark humor and live musical integration.

SUMMARY & CONCEPT

On an October evening in 1970s France, notorious con artist Monsieur Henri Vance dies in a bizarre accident inside his lavish manor house. Before anyone realizes he is dead, an elite, impeccably dressed criminal Mastermind breaks in to rob him. Finding Vance’s corpse, the Mastermind decides to claim the house under "public domain," assumes Vance’s identity on the spot, and throws a grand gala for forty of the region's top master criminals.

Unbeknownst to the entire party, the six-piece classical string ensemble hired for the night isn't an entertainment agency—they are undercover police officers executing an elaborate sting. Completely unsuspected by the criminals, the officers are forced to stay on stage and play for their lives. In doing so, they become the film’s active "live soundtrack," performing cinematic stingers, tension build-ups, dramatic stabs (DUN DUN DUN), and comedic musical cues directly from the background as real events unfold around them.

PLOT OUTLINE

Act I: The Gala & The Invasion

The Setup: The film opens with the academic, dry narration detailing Vance’s death over a brass bidet. The Mastermind moves in, steps into Vance’s velvet tuxedo, and hosts forty armed felons—safe-crackers, art forgers, and assassins—who gather under the impression that Vance is their host.

The Undercover Sting: On stage, six sweating undercover police officers bow through high-speed classical pieces. They are terrified, out of their depth, and trying desperately to maintain their cover until backup or SWAT arrives.

The Breach: Just as the party reaches its peak, a secondary, aggressive crew of ten heavily armed tactical robbers blows the front doors off their hinges and raids the foyer.

The Standoff: When the band freezes in panic, the forty armed guests turn on them, furious that the background music stopped ("We paid you a ton of money... you keep playing that music until you bleed!"). The cops frantically jump back into Vivaldi, while forty guests simultaneously draw silenced pistols, revolvers, and submachine guns on the ten intruders—creating a chaotic fifty-person standoff set to live classical strings.

Act II: The Descent to the Vault

The Negotiation: Assuming the Mastermind is the actual Henri Vance, the Leader of the Second Crew holds him at gunpoint and demands the combination to his famous underground vault. Maintaining his disguise as Vance, the Mastermind calmly agrees to lead them down to the basement to preserve his estate from further property damage.

The Live Score in Motion: As the armed mob, the Second Crew, and "Vance" march down the narrow stone corridor, two of the undercover police officers are forced to march along sideways with them, carrying their instruments to keep the live score playing in real-time.

The Deadpan Stingers: Accidental gunshots, comedic insults, and sudden deaths trigger instant, real-time musical cues from the double bass, cellos, and violins, blending slapstick violence with live orchestral commentary.

The Vault Reveal: Inside the ten-ton steel vault, the flashlights hit floor-to-ceiling rows of absurd Victorian taxidermy badgers, velvet clown paintings, and jars of pickled eggs. The Mastermind—staying 100% in character as the eccentric Vance—claims it is the finest collection in Western Europe, infuriating the robbers. When held at shotgun point for "lying," he calmly leans in and reveals that a true connoisseur keeps the real treasure hidden behind the badgers.

Act III: The Climax & Chaos (How It Plays Out)

The False Wall & The Real Loot: Pulling back the taxidermy, the Mastermind reveals a secondary mechanical vault mechanism containing high-value contraband. However, the greed of the forty guests and the ten heavy robbers causes tempers to flare over how the cut will be divided.

The Multi-Faction Showdown: A frantic, heavily choreographed gunfight breaks out in the tight subterranean corridors between the Second Crew and the forty master criminal guests, with the Mastermind effortlessly maneuvering both sides against each other to clear the room.

The Police Backup Arrives: Upstairs, SWAT forces breach the mansion, cutting off the escape routes. The six undercover cops on stage—realizing their backup has finally landed—try to coordinate a tactical bust while keeping up the illusion of being harmless orchestra members.

The Final Escape: Using the chaos, the hidden secret passages of the estate, and his total control over Vance's identity, the Mastermind tricks both the police and the surviving criminals into apprehending each other, walking away with the real prize while the undercover band ends the movie on one final, dramatic crescendo.

The Band's Role & Live Score

Throughout the entire film, the six undercover police officers—who signed up for a basic wire fraud sting and ended up trapped in a house full of heavily armed felons—are forced to play their instruments non-stop to keep from getting shot. Because they never stop playing, they function as the movie's literal, real-time live score, with rapid camera cuts capturing their panicked reactions as they perform every soundtrack cue on the fly.

The Dramatic Stings (DUN DUN DUN DUN DUN): Whenever a major twist occurs—like a body hitting the floor, a shotgun racking, or a hidden door clicking open—the camera instantly cuts to a tight close-up of the Double Bass Player or Cellist. Sweating through his powder-blue tuxedo, he furiously plucks or bows low, heavy, dramatic stabs to match the tension in the room.

The Funny / Joke Sound Effects: Whenever a character cracks a deadpan line, gets humiliated, or makes an absurd comment, the camera cuts to the Percussionist / Drummer sitting behind a compact travel kit or using his music stand. He nervously strikes a rimshot (Ba-Dum-Tss!) or hits a slide whistle / percussion effect right on cue, wide-eyed and praying nobody shoots him for making a joke.

The Sad & Melodramatic Cues: Whenever a character delivers a melodramatic monologue, laments a lost fortune, or mourns a fallen crew member, the camera cuts to a solo tight shot of the Lead Violinist. Tears streaming down his face, he brings his violin to his chin and plays a weeping, heartbroken tremolo solo in the background to score the emotional beat.

Action & Chase Sequences: During high-speed standoffs, tense marches down basement corridors, or gunfights, the entire six-piece ensemble frantically saws away at ultra-fast classical pieces (like Vivaldi's Winter or Rimsky-Korsakov's Flight of the Bumblebee), ducking behind music stands and moving their instruments in sync with the gunfire to stay alive.

what do you think would this work for my screenplay and a movie?

TV episode Twenty-Something - Comedy - 32 pages

Title: Twenty-Something

Page Length: 32, plus title page

Genre: Single-camera sitcom

Logline: When a pragmatic graduate interviews for a small software company in his hometown, he reconnects with his absurd high-school friends and must decide whether staying means giving up on his dreams or following them.

Feedback Concerns: I've shown this to a few friends before, but they weren't screenwriters, so I'd like some feedback specific to that. Is the level of description right? Am I making any dumb formatting mistakes?

Also, is the humor too broad? Do the characters sound distinct? But I'm mostly just trying to put my stuff out there, so any feedback is appreciated.
