“Unraveling the Complex Ties: Is ‘Motherboy’ the Most Enigmatic Screenplay of the Year?”
Mommy?
I love setups like this.
It’s simple setups like this that have led to classic movies such as Get Out.
Send two characters to a remote location where they encounter other characters that they are in conflict with in some way and then allow the drama that gestates from that clash to guide your story.
The reason I like this setup so much is because you can write a really cheap movie this way, which massively increases the chances of your script getting made. We just saw it with the great Speak No Evil.
