Interesting plot, I think.
here it is 'the shopping list. - errant single quote
White Signpost - Why the caps?
GOD, ONE WOULD TEND, OF MY NECESSITIES' - Why the caps? You would do well to buy a script writing book. As I understand, only the characters in the scene and the action verbs get all caps. Otherwise, grammar and punctuation is per normal usage.
Suppers on the table. - Supper(')s
As I said, punctuation and grammar follow normal rules.
Best wishes.

This seems like a very interesting idea for a film script. The concept is a fascinating one, a little
reminiscent of Bruce Almighty except set a long time ago.

I think the dialogue is pretty good although I noticed you sometimes use off expressions

Eg Don't repeat that again. - maybe don't do that again?

Also, I noticed a few spots where you didn't leave a line between dialogue.

Thanks for sharing

Wow, you certainly have a humorous imagination! Uncle Lew is quite the character, as he keeps the story going quite nicely.
Cute supporting casts with the kids and the one who's trying to get her brother out of Hell. Your writing is entertaining & the only problem you may have, is those who don't care for using the location of Heaven for your story. But then again, maybe most will not find it offending. I'm not trying to rain on your parade, just being honest. I enjoy your writing and I wish you all the best. Nice job!

    Thank you very much for taking the time to read this and for your very nice review. I am glad you liked it. I found it very, Helpful because I'm looking for areas That are not. Either explained well or that can step on somebody's toes. Part of me just says, well, you're gonna have to move your feet, which I am leaning towards.

    There are some touchy things in this [not saying just what now] that I mentioned to someone, ?the only way I can write about that is with humor.?
    But I think I can get away with Not me Saying it
    but I am going to use the words of Famous people... it should work if I set it up correctly... Anyway, I am talking like a rattle trap... Thanks Bill

You are so very talented! You bring a feeling with your words, always setting the scene and engaging the reader. I could picture everything that was going on and I wanted to be there with the characters. Can't wait for what comes next!

    Well, see what you started? I think writing Haiku helped me a bit by using limited words and listening to all voices on fanstory. I have been here a long time and with real tears, I got better... lots of people helped. Thanks again... bill

This is a very different post regarding these type of happenings, but I like the characters as earthy and relatable, not sanctimonious and unbearable, good characters as well. Lew and Rebecca have a mutual affection which may become tangled, later. Excellent post, blessings Roy

    Tangled up in blue... maybe... Nope, it's going a different direction.

    Nice review Roy, I got a lot out of it...
    As you know, some things write themselves and what you apply as an Observer Roy, lets me see it from a different view as well," oh yeah I had not thought of it that way."
    Anyway thanks for the review... take Care... Bill

I enjoyed reading part of your screen play. My son also writes and he mentioned that screenplays are judged in the first 100 words. Something to consider. His perspective is from the standpoint of investors being interested in making his movies. Hope that helps.

This work has reached the exceptional level

When heart works, everything becomes fine, fantastic and fantasy becomes more than fanning; this script has its own original order of expression, nothing is incredible, when pot of gold from heaven after the rainbow; well said, well done; post more. ALCREATOR LITT DEAR (D R)

    Well, what a nice review... plus a great rating... I have been working on this for 6 months {with rest} and was not sure if my craziness was working... I would love to post more but I want to keep this card hand close to my chest... I have never done a screenplay before, maybe later I will figure out Private viewing and let you know... Thanks again... Bill

Well, It is long I will say that for it. However, it is also interesting and kept me hooked all the way to the end. I wish someone would bring me a pot of gold. I think your script is fine just the way it is.
