FIRST PLACE The-Greenlight.com feature screenplay competition
The characters,locations and story are exciting, rich, and would dazzle any cinema going audience. It has what we call the holy trinity... Sex, Violence and a well crafted story. One the best scripts we have ever read! BRAVO!!! RECOMMEND!!! http://the-greenlight.hostei.com/tllewis.html"Rebirth is an iconic classic in the making. The story is engaging from page one, and doesn’t miss a beat thereafter. Rebirth catapults its audience on a captivating journey wrought with peril and intrigue. Danger, romance, passion, and betrayal are used to weave the story into a historical tapestry of epic proportions. Rebirth is a lucid and lively work that will engage both lovers of romance, while appeasing those who are more engaged by sequences of action. It manages to make the period come alive, and whets the appetite for more... This larger-than-life tale is not to be ignored. A RECOMMEND." ScriptVamp coverage.
