What did you like about this script?
A story about a murder is difficult to tell in just 40 pages, but this script does so incredibly well in our limited time with these characters and this situation.
One of the best things about this script is how the reader thinks it’s so obvious that the killer is Antigone the entire time, only to get the rug swept from our feet at the end. It’s so easy to think that Doukas thinks Antigone isn't the murderer just because he has a crush on her, but it might actually be because she isn’t the murderer!
One scene that sticks out is Doukas and Antigone talking in a book store about detective stories; the setting itself is ironic and it feels like a character itself.
There are lines of dialogue that are incredible, like on page 5: “DOUKAS: That only the dead have seen the end of war!” or, on page 14: “ALEKSY: The bird is out of tune.”
