Christopher J Earl

Graduate of Political Science , now studying history . I have recently became interested in scriptwriting whether for films or documentaries . I am a beginner but think sometimes a fresh perspective needed . My focus would be historical genre . I have several projects on the back burner while studying plus other non fiction book projects . The kind of directors I have been influenced by include Oliver Stone , Moustapha Akkad etc . Plus the documentaries of Ken Burns and the often forgotten Peter Watkins . Other people like the writer Dalton Trumbo has influenced my view of film as well as Walter Hill in the western genre . Add to that some of the work done by Mel Gibson .
