Hey, Nick!

The story is fairly simple but has a twist at the end. I thought the kid would kill the bully, but the opposite happened; I liked that. I don't quite understand the trajectory of the best friend. Was he with the kid or, in a way, against him? As if he enjoyed the kid's misery.

It would be cool to see this filmed. In black and white, with intertitles, it would look even more amazing!

Good luck.

Hey Yuvraj,

Nice to hear from you again, you’ve just gave me a good inspiration for filming this, I wouldn’t expect to hear that it should be film in black and white. I’m gonna apply that, since this screenplay is a high school project of mine, and it would be so dramatic to see it in B&W. To the question, the best friend is against him, in an unintentional way. Like he always try to help but he didn’t do it at the right time, he’s ego is big, depicted in the test scene, The Kid failed, the Best Friend passed, and he can’t keep it to himself. That’s what drives The Kid to death. Anyway, thank you for reading my screenplay. I’ve read your screenplay Social Experiment, I gotta say, I love it. That’s all. Thank you for stopping by, my good friend. I’ll see you when I see you.

All the best with it, Nick!
