Screenwriting is such a tough combination of writing from your heart and taking care of business. Playwrights have the luxury of messing around with structure any old way they please so long as it works. Movies, falling as they do on the business side of the art/craft divide, demand scripts that toe the structure line much more closely.
In that vein, I would like to suggest that all you writers out there check out the tips on Julie Gray's Silver Screenwriting site here. Julie writes the fabulous screenwriting blog, Just Effing Entertain Me and runs The Script Department script consulting service. She's also giving a workshop at Broad Humor, so you'll get a chance to hear her and meet her there.
