Liked it. Did not see the end coming. At all. Now I want the back story. One misspell in logline -- shouldn't "lost" be "loss"? Do you belong to any local film groups who can film your stuff? Or any other avenues like that? This is good.
Thanks. I'm really going to try and get this in someone's hands. I think it would do well in film festivals and give an actress a great role to put on her reel.
The ending was kind of flat for me. I was hoping for some kind of twist, but I don't know what that could be. I'm a bit surprised that the cashier was giving her a break. They don't usually do that for drunks. I was thinking why would she do this. The only answer I could come up with is if Kasey was a police officer. Retail businesses (esp those in shitty neighborhoods) always appreciate cops even when they're not on duty. And that would add more depth to the character than being a factory worker. She goes to the neighborhood drug dealer for cash. Maybe he's been a regular bank in the past because she's always covered for him and keeps his business safe. But he's over that now. She's more of a liability now that she's Crazy Kasey. Maybe the twist at the end could be the audience realizing that she is a cop. She puts on her uniform for the graveyard shift or something. I don't know. Just a suggestion. sorry for the 11 hour notice, but check this out: http://www.kcwift.com/contest/contest-rules-and-regulations/
Unfortunately I have to be a woman to enter that contest, lol. But thanks anyway. I really like that police officer idea. I may expand the story and use it. Really smart. That's an academy award type story right there. Thanks.
Seriously? I looked under the rules and they said if a woman were to come up with the idea, but a man wrote it, it wouldn't be eligible. So I figured well if a man thought of an idea and a man wrote it, then there's no way in hell they would accept it. That sucks. How much was it?

Well, you're too late now, but no, this was the first year they were allowing men to submit.
