2. Why should this screenplay be made into a movie?
It’s a funny little black & white “short” that an audience would enjoy.
3. How would you describe this script in two words?
Universal appeal.
4. What movie have you seen the most times in your life?
“The Wizard of Oz”
5. How long have you been working on this screenplay?
I worked on the 1-page script a total of 5 minutes, but the story goes back decades. When I was a divorced parent of a little girl, times were tough and we couldn’t afford the $50 Christmas tree we saw on a lot. My daughter was only 8 years old, but had a sophisticated sense of humor. When I told the salesman I only had $10 to spend, he told me he was sorry but they didn’t have any trees for that price. As he walked away, my daughter tugged at my coat and said, “Mommy, does that mean we can’t have Christmas?” Her timing was perfect and her delivery was Oscar-worthy. The man turned around, looked at her angelic face and said, “Of course, you’re going to have Christmas, Honey.” He took my 10 bucks, nailed the tree to a stand, tied it to the top of my beaten up old VW, and tearfully waved to us as we drove off. On the way home, my little girl said she thought that would be a good movie like those “old ones on TV.”
6. How many stories have you written?
I used to be a travel writer, radio/TV/print commercial copywriter. Presently, I have a TV movie screenplay ready for purchase and I have almost completed a novel. The screenplay is a sweet story that deals with families and Alzheimer’s. The novel is raw and deals with spousal abuse, infidelity and murder.
7. What motivated you to write this screenplay?
It looked like fun and I already had the story in mind.
8. What obstacles did you face to finish this screenplay?
Trying to fit it on one page.
9. Apart from writing, what else are you passionate about?
My family, (including the dog) home, charities.
10. Any advice or tips you’d like to pass on to other writers?
If something touches you, chances are it will touch other people, as well. Write it down.
My screenplay is a psychological thriller based on events that happened to a friend of mine. She was heading to bed and looked at a baby monitor to check on her son and saw a white orbs circling around her son. Not wanting to wake her son up she googled what to do and found an incantation to say to send evil spirits away.
2. Why should this screenplay be made into a movie?
A relationship that lives in the aftermath of an abortion is
The fear a parent has for their children is universal. When something unknown threatens an innocent child even non parents feel a sense of dread. I believe a film like this could tap into those universal fears.
3. How would you describe this script in two words?
Mother’s fear
4. What movie have you seen the most times in your life?
As a kid I probably watched The Goonies the most and still revisit it as an adult and still ranks as one of my favorite movies.
5. How long have you been working on this screenplay?
When I found out about the 1 page screenplay challenge I tried to come up with a good story that could be told in a short time. Since I only found out about the challenge shortly before the deadline it was a pretty short time that I was working on it.
6. How many stories have you written?
Around 10
7. What motivated you to write this screenplay?
I liked the challenge and love to get feedback to strength my writing skills. The story comes from wanting to tell a complete story in 1 page.
8. What obstacles did you face to finish this screenplay?
The one page limit posed the biggest obstacle especially with the end. In my first draft there were more characters and bigger ending. But a lot of editing had to be done to get the one page ending but still try to keep the intensity of the script.
9. Apart from writing, what else are you passionate about?
Movies in general. I write for a blog and help run The Milwaukee Twisted Dreams Film Festival.
Besides that I work in a hospital as a pharmacist.
10. Any advice or tips you’d like to pass on to other writers?
I still feel like I am learning so not sure what advice I could pass on.
The biggest part of learning to write is seeking meaningful feedback. I always appreciate tips on how to make my writing better. I also try to read other screenplays to get a feel of how the pros do it.
Pro-Pete is about a man and a woman who love each other. Leave each other. Hate each other. Nearly die while separated – and then, in the end, forgive each other fully completel
2. Why should this screenplay be made into a movie?
A relationship that lives in the aftermath of an abortion is
evocative. The story does not take sides or suggest right or wrong, but instead explores human emotion, with themes of perseverance and forgiveness.
3. How would you describe this script in two words?
Unfeigned, responsive.
4. What movie have you seen the most times in your life?
To Kill a Mocking Bird.
5. How long have you been working on this screenplay?
Not long (a few months), although I had the idea for a while.
6. How many stories have you written?
Many stories, but I have about 6 complete screenplays written.
7. What motivated you to write this screenplay?
I like stories that have a core narrative of hope, but that are not afraid to include elements of dark emotion. I don’t think many people dare to write a story that includes abortion (because of it’s controversy and extremes).
8. What obstacles did you face to finish this screenplay?
I faced the normal obstacles – writer’s block, writer’s doubt,
writer’s despair, writer’s mania. Finishing a story that satisfies yourself is very difficult (I think for all but the most confident of writers).
9. Apart from writing, what else are you passionate about?
I find playing music difficult, but fun. I also like Super Mario games.
