If you find that a point cannot be made without narration, it is virtually certain that the point is unimportant to the story … The audience requires not information but drama.
David Mamet (On Directing Film)
True fact. You can get by on a hell of a lot less information than you think you can. You have that one friend who tells the world’s most boring stories because they put in everything. Don’t put in everything. No one cares. Just the good parts.
