After waching VOLCANO (w/ Tommy Lee  Jones) and comparing with DANTE'S PEAK (w/ Pierce Brosnan) - and now watching the David Lynch version of DUNE - I have a question.
 
Is voice over mostly added after the screenplay is complete?  In most of the stuff I have seen it seems like it's added as a remedial 'as-you-know-bob' effect on the second or third edit. Like they were told that the story's just too damn obscure without a voice-over.
 
FWIW, VOLCANO was drowning in newsmedia voice-overs. Yuck.  I would rather cut my wrists with a rake than write a screenplay like that.
