Hi... Doovid Ooves again making his grand reappearance. Now i was thinking about my latest script idea, when I got to thinking about a way to go about writing it. Now for this script I have two principle characters: Jack, an insomniac, and Roy, a coffee addict. Now the story is about getting control over your life, but I realized that the plots I had picked out for these characters separate, and never necessarily meet in the end. They both tell a story about life spiraling into chaos, but the more the story progresses, the more contrasting the lives of these characters become, almost to the point where we almost have two completely different stories all together, except they are fundimentally about the same thing.
So, does this seem like an idea that will work, or will it instead alienate the audience. Perhaps instead of making the two stories into one story, I should just write them separately as two different screenplays, but I felt that ideas from the one story fit into the ideas in the other. Together they work from a thematic standpoint, but plotwise, they simply stray farther and farther from each other.
So what do you guys think. Will this work, or not?
