What is your screenplay about?

Its about cover-ups, deception, and lust

Comedy and drama

Why should this screenplay be made into a movie?

Because it doesn’t have super-heroes and an inflated budget so it will make all its money back.

How would you describe this script in two words?

Pervy ethics

What movie have you seen the most times in your life?

Shawshank Redemption…Get busy living, or get busy watching Shawshank, that’s damn right!

On and off, through a couple of versions, iterations, for a few years

Over 80

Trimming it down to just a page and hitting all the comedic notes was tough, but it was a good challenge to know I could do it.

Acting

What influenced you to enter the festival? What were your feelings on the initial feedback you received?

I admired the festival’s goals to give honest and positive feedback to fledgling filmmakers. Its tough to rated against more seasoned filmmakers with heftier budgets and its easy to get discouraged by film festivals who value finesse over stories and do not reply to submissions. It’s great to hear feedback from audience members and people who just love to encourage filmmakers.
