Hate to ask a silly question, but in JMS' book on script writing, the   
   TV film is mentioned as usually being 120 mins. in length, with a   
   101-110 page script.   
      
   However I have noticed that many TV films these days are 90-94   
   minutes. I believe that IMDB lists both "In The Beginning" and   
   "Thirdspace" at 94 minutes.   
      
   So I was wondering what the usual length is for those scripts? I am   
   guessing 48 + 24 = 72 pages, approximately? I was going by the hourly   
   drama requirements of about 48 pages. I also wonder if one of the   
   tricky things in page length relative to minutes is camera shots or   
   effects shots that may have descriptions longer in relation to the   
   dialogue than the percentage of time they actually take in the   
   finished film. I also wonder if they are usually in four act structure   
   or if they go to five? 120 minute telefilms were mentioned as being   
   six to eight acts in length.   
      
   Apologies if this is really inside baseball, it is kind of fascinating   
   though. :)
