If done correctly, it should look something like the image on the left. There are many elements to a correctly written screenplay, and you can learn about them on Storysense.com.
That might seem overwhelming, but it's a lot simpler if you use screenwriting software like Celtx. Celtx is great because it's free (you'll need a free account) and simple to use.
