Teaching Hollywood screen players how to screenplay.

It is really interesting how on point the screenplay is on the series, I didn't find any reviews about this, so Im pointing some stuff out.

The whole series uses a peculiar style of screenplay managing the rule of thirds and montage in a different but EFFICIENT way, so it make sense along the diegesis of the show. But not for this episode though.

We been watching the whole series in 16:9 aspect ratio.

Little Eliot finds himself in the cinema watching a movie about to start, right after his father died. And Just as it says in that movie, "sit back, relax and enjoy the show". The movie starts, and everything from now on, is in 2.40:1 aspect ratio. But not only that, also the way the screenplay is managed is actually like a movie (we have the natural rule of thirds applied to all conversations in this episode). Its been converted into a cinematic style. And the most important thing is that it MAKES SENSE. This is a "Redemption" episode, everything is fkt up inside the show to a critical point. The series of events that happened are a whole drama, then SHOT as an actual DRAMA. So lets carve in the dramatic cinematic style into the episode with a hell of a smooth transition from a critical point in the show to another. The rest of the episode screenplay is traditional screenplay with justification, little bit of a paradox right there.
