Description
Summary:	This research article describes the pragmalinguistic phenomena in the script of the film Confession to Laura (Cardona, 2010), understanding it as a dramatic text type, close although different from the theatrical text.

Descriptive statistics are used to analyze the data and relevant elements are pointed out for understanding the corpus. It is concluded that the method designed by Val.Es.Co is relevant to fictional discourses and recommendations for future work are given
