(I’m waiting for the lion too.) <——–PDF here.

I read alot of screenplays. But not just because I have to.  I love screenwriters. I love the art and I think it’s an art – just like poetry, novel-writing, or journalism (when it’s good).

If you read this script, you’ll see what I mean. Suddenly you’re feeling something for these people who don’t exist, and worried about their futures, as if that future were real beyond the screenplay. That to me is a good writer, and this guy is great.

He’s…..GREAT.

So great, I want a moment of silence right now for him. I appreciate it so much, and though it’s what I do too, it’s my guilty pleasure. So when these guys are good? I’m in heaven.

Just be warned, this guy is goin’ to the pit of your belly, and you will not finish,  untouched….
