Richard "RB" Botto brilliant and astute as always

Appreciated, Pat!

I completely agree Richard. I’ve been working on a screenplay for a few years and although I still don’t have a finished product, it’s been fun working on it. I’m hopeful that one day I will be able to finalize it, get it into the right hands, and watch it on the big screen. That’s my goal. :)

Right on Richard! Sorry if my age is showing.

Richard "RB" Botto your words inspire me daily. I look to things like these for motivation being a new comer to the screenwriting industry. It's scary, and at times filled with doubt hearing about all of the difficulties. But you never cease to inspire, and I really admire that. I'm going to keep focusing cause I'm passionate about it, and I know just like her, my hard work will pay off. I just want to do something I love and use it to inspire and help others attain something they love as well. If anyway I can help paying it forward and aiding the movement just let me know. I'm here not only for self, but to inspire other creatives.

Am I right thinking this is a road trip movie?

I was actually on a structure course this weekend and we looked at Thelma and Louise but, I imagine you're talking more about two people who start off not getting along and bond over the course of the journey, is that right?

You could read scripts for Green Book, Sideways, Rain Man, Nebraska. They will give you some insight into how the dynamics and structure work.

Feel free to message me if you like and I can try to explain what I know and how I'd approach it.

Thanks Adam! This is a road trip movie where the adventure and challenges they face help them become friends. I will look into those movies. Thanks for the help!

No problem. Your idea also made me think of Up in the Air, you could always check that out too.
