This is the scene in Knocked Up where Alison reveals to Ben that she is pregnant with his baby which was used as a trailer for the film. I have the film at home but the full version of this scene is not available online so this will have to do for posting purposes. This scene is done in a comedic way so I don't know how relevant this will be to my film as I am currently unsure whether I want it to be a comedy.
If it was a comedy I think it would be hard to pull off as my actors would need to be able to act that way. I am also unsure whether my film will work as a comedy but I guess it could do considering the main part of the film is the conversation so that would determine it's genre and therefore make it work in that genre. Also I am wondering whether this would work set in a bedroom as opposed to a restaurant, I mean I think it probably will as the conversation is transferable.
As you can tell this isn't the full conversation as it has been cut down for the trailer so I think the conversation lasts about one and a half to two minutes if I am remembering correctly, I'll to watch this scene later and find out.
I will post a full analysis of the scene when I have watched it enough times as well as posting the actual length and a copy of this part of the script.
For my short film the opening sequence will be about forty seconds to a minute and the closing sequence will be about forty seconds to a minute also. As well as the conversation being about one and a half to two minutes. This will mean the full film will be about three and a half to four minutes long all together which is within the three to five minute brief for the film.
