Hey just read this because I was interested to see what script won for May.
Enjoyed it! It read quickly and had some quality parts.
I thought the character of James was a little too sex-heavy. The nonstop porn, the banging strippers, the sheep fucking...just seemed a little too much.
The hobos could have been way more revealing in some way. Their scene was sort of anticlimactic. But I do like the whole idea of meeting up with them and hearing their tales.
The asian videogame nerd was a little on the lame side. Maybe give him more of a reason to be sort of tailing the guys than the car slip. Some kind of past with James or one of the guys might work.
I liked the "cheap" ending at the end of Adriana being at the game and them getting in. I thought it totally worked and made the journey worth while. I do agree that more of her throughout the script could be beneficial.
Overall, great job, have fun with that winning money!
