I hope Kev answers you, but in case he doesn't, I'll say this. Once in proper form, a screenplay should be somewhere between 90 to 120 pages. That page-per-minute thing is correct. So a 90 page script would be 90 minutes.
I'd be interested to see how many pages Kev's are, though, so I hope he does respond.

: Hey Kevin, you're probably not reading this, but I like to think that you are.
: Anyway, I was just wondering if you put your movies in "proper form", and if so, how long were Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, and/or Dogma in proper form? I've finished about three short films, and two feature length films (I have 3 more full length movies that are not yet completed, but they are close) and I just need to get an idea of how long they are. I've been told "1 page=1 minute", but my movies have lots of scenes that are more than people just talking. I'd appreciate any help I could get.
