THE HIGHLY ILLUSTRATED SCREENPLAY NARRATIVE
*
HIGH SCHOOL 4
Int. Tom’s home. The home is a row house. Basement. Evening.
His brother and mother upstairs, Tom sits on a tatty styrofoam pillow the colour of yellow yolk that’s been left to age.
SFX: The drone of the TV
A motorcycle cop: Don’t you realize that California law stipulates you should check your muffler every six months?
Tom, his face impassive, gets to his feet and turns the channel dial. It clicks loudly with every new channel.
New voice (on a talk show): Today on Front Page Challenge, we have a guest who was the first Canadian to star in an American western.
SFX: Applause.
