Screenwriting : Script finished by Steven M. Cross

Script finished

I just finished the rough draft of my Christmas script. I'm going to correct obvious errors and then wait for a few days to dive back into it and begin the real work. I know that I won't be the one that titles it if It ever gets bought, but I've been thinking about something to use when marketing it. So far I have three tentative titles:  Holiday Desserts: Home Sweet Homes;  Just Desserts: Home Sweets Home; or Just Desserts. The script is kind of a scrooge type story and it does involve two rival bakeries. Which title gets your attention? I like the ambiguity of the title Just Desserts, but I don't know if it would confuse people or intrigue them.

"Home Sweets Home"! Changing "Sweet" to "Sweets" is creative and makes the title stand out.

Molly Peck

Hi Steven, I think Just Desserts is great! It really goes with the "two rival bakeries" idea.

Earl Butler

I love this idea!! Holiday movies are cute and fun.

Debbie Croysdale

Agree with @Molly Just Desserts is succinct & punchy. Home Sweets Home is a creative spoonerism but also a guessing game.

Alicia Vaughan

Just Desserts sounds just right!

Jim Boston

Steven, I love me some "Just Desserts!" (And all the VERY BEST to you on that Christmas script!)

Christiane Lange

Just Desserts is a nice title.
