historical

I've been around to the other genres and find no mention of historically set scripts. (except for the people doing westerns. Yay to them!)

Is anyone else out there setting their script in some far off era? I'd love to hear about it because I love history. I've set mine in 1879 London.

RE: historical

Mine is technically... half historical.
It has two plots going at the same time, and one takes place in Miocene Africa.
So... sabre-tooth tigers, giant gorialla horses, freakish elephants, and the works!
I love historical movies, too. I was surprised nano had a forum for it, but screnzy doesn't.

RE: historical

My script is a set of three shorts, one of which is . . . er, half historical, I suppose. The main characters are reincarnations of a couple who lived in the 17th century.

RE: historical

my script is historical as well -the only specification i'm giving is that it occurs sometime during the medieval period. -i'm writing the story behind the fairy tale of rapunzel.

RE: historical

Story behind rapunzel? Oh, that sounds cool. Have you read Gregory Maguire's novels?

I too am doing a historical piece. It is about the slave trade in Elizabethan England. I haven't got very far yet though.

RE: historical

heck yes ^_^
mine is in ancient rome.
(yayyyyyyyyy togas!)
the only problem i'm having is with their dialouge. i don't want them to sound too modern, but i don't want them sounding strange either. and then there's the whole question of throwing in latin phrases. it would make it sound authentic, but i don't want to confuse the reader.
anyone else having problems like these?
