Screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg may have hit a jackpot with her Twilight adaptation, but there's another screenplay that has been winning fans all over the Internet. I'm talking about Eric D. Snider's rejected Twilight screenplay. I pasted Scene 1 below. See the rest for yourself here.
Scene 1
BELLA: I'm sad to leave the hellish, uninhabitable wasteland of Phoenix to live in a rain-soaked town full of rubes. I wish everything about my comfortable and privileged life were completely different!
DAD: Hi, Bella! Welcome to Forks, Washington. I'm glad you've stopped playing mother to your own flighty, irresponsible mom and come here to be my mother instead.
BELLA: It will be my pleasure to cook and clean for you.
DAD: I bought you an old truck from an Indian in a wheelchair!
BELLA: I ... have no response for that.
Read the rest of this overlooked masterpiece.
