A convicted murderer is released after thirty years for killing his wife’s lover, but his secret past brings chaos and danger to the people he has come to love in his new life.
Hello fellow creatives... I'm wondering (again) how you overcome creative blocks when you're writing or creating in your chosen medium? Currently I'm working on a screenplay which started life as a short and keep finding that the story isn't flowing as swiftly as I would normally like. Instead of fi...

Hey if it's mad enough Ricky it could become a story on the news :-) I hear what you're saying though, the distraction etc could free up the creative flow... Cheers Andy
I teach the "Writing the Feature Screenplay" course at the Burt Reynolds Institute. Ours is a think tank atmosphere... students bring ten new pages a week and we "perform" them in as a staged reading....

Hi Palaash, I've always wanted to make a film in India! What were you thinking?
Hi Philip, I see your old thread has sprung back to life :D Are you still looking? If so, what for?
Hi Philip, nice to know you! This is a post from many years ago, but still I was wondering if you're still looking for short scripts!
If you are, so far I have only one script (which has already got its first award), if you'd like I could email it to you; if interested, let me know :)
A retired art professor is presented with a crude painting of his cottage by a young female pupil he is inexplicably attracted to, however the picture reveals a strange hooded figure that can move within and without the landscape, toward his cottage and his secrets.

Hi Kelly - I have a script 'Pottersville' - obviously linked with the Christian themes Capra was evoking in 'IAWL' - it's an extended 're-visit', if you like, for today's generation. A drunk, redundant and separated guy ends up in his favorite movie, only in the wrong town and having scuppered Clare...
