I think it's 140 characters but it doesn't matter, 160 is all good.
As a side-note, there's an actual term for this, it's called a log line. I only know this because of a film class I took. But it's basically a one sentence summary of the pitch that people give to studios when proposing a movie or TV show.
Just want to make sure Twitter doesn't get undue credit.
This one's funny:
Quote:
The following "log line" has been widely circulated on the internet:
"Transported to a surreal landscape, a young girl kills the first woman she meets, then teams up with three complete strangers to kill again."
-- Log Line for The Wizard of Oz, attributed to Richard Polito of the Marin Independent Journal, who writes humorously sarcastic briefs for the paper's daily TV listings.
