We don't talk enough about how great of a child actor Elijah Wood was. Give him his flowers.

When a character cuts another character's line short, there's no need to tell us in the action. Use "--" to signal the actor that their line overlaps/cuts off the one before theirs, like in DEVIL IN A BLUE DRESS. Read DEVIL IN A BLUE DRESS in the vault. awriterforyourwriter.com/screenplay-vau…

There are several ways to show point of view. In BOYZ IN THE HOOD, the character is capitalized and justified right on its own line like a SHOT, followed by the action on the next line signaling the camera to be ON that character. Read the script. 👇🏾 awriterforyourwriter.com/screenplay-vau…
