Description

GOOD INTENTIONS is a screenplay worth fixing. There is a rich cast of characters written with a clear sense of identity and point of view. The main conflict between the two mothers who struggle with their respective burdens is compelling and written from an earnest, heartfelt perspective. Overall, this story touches on some interesting moral questions and pits the main characters into engaging moral compromises. The structure could use some tweaking in the first and second acts in order to streamline some of the plot development and earn some of the final moments more, but there is some solid potential to work with in the writers' voices. The dialogue is solidly-written and the characters speak from distinct personalities. The screenplay has a definitely religious morality that it speaks from, but attempts to approach it subtly with some success. The plot is an engaging storyline and the characters are richly human and flawed.
