In my current script, I wanted to pay homage to one of my favorite movie scenes, the "museum scene" in Ferris Bueller's Day Off. I love this scene because I think it reveals the soul of the movie. Here it is (with commentary from Mr. Hughes): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p89gBjHB2Gs
The FB script I downloaded from DailyScript (labeled as a shooting script) has an entirely different set of shots than what's in the film. After listening to the director's commentary, I got a feeling this was mostly spur of the moment, unscripted improvisation.
I have two characters entering a museum, both mesmerized by the grandeur and art. I used a combination of "series of shots" and "intercuts" in my first attempt, but it looks really clunky on the page. Any suggestions on how you would do it?
