Hi again, Patrick. I just wanted to make you aware of my latest screenplay (loaded up today on Stage 32). It features a strong, black female lead and a multi-cultural cast. Edgy topic: Human trafficking. Can you advise me who to pitch it to? Title: Rescue Me Twice Written by Tom Stohlgren An original screenplay for theatrical release (107 pages; WGAw registered) Genre: Action-Adventure (based on actual human-trafficking events) Logline: An elite, but troubled, team of operatives lead in the capture of human-trafficking kingpins around the globe, rescuing their victims. Synopsis: Three former-military operatives have to put their emotional issues behind them to rescue victims of human trafficking, and to capture those responsible around the globe. The team is led by RHONDA BUTLER (35), a fiery black woman with a darker personal history. She’s joined by TREY STENSON (28), rich, religious Texas cowboy out to save the world, and Lin Su (25), a beautiful Chinese-American who quickly washed-out of the military and a TV-reporting job. They are funded by LEXI WORTHINGTON (70), whose foundation wants to put a dent in the $32 Billion human trafficking industry. The “field operations” are based on actual cases in human trafficking. The team’s recent operation in West Africa is disastrous. Five young girls are rescued, but the ringleader, MBEETU (50), escapes, hires more goons, and kidnaps twenty girls in retribution. Rhonda is distraught to learn that Mbeetu shot a 12-year-old boy-soldier (Tewdros) in the stomach after the boy failed at guarding the girls the night before. Mbeetu also killed the boy’s family to prove that fighting human trafficking in the region is futile. The rescue team’s emotions are at an all-time low. Lexi Worthington creates a high-tech “Rescue Room” and hires three young computer geeks (Rosa Sanchez, Jan Rejmanek, and Bret Munson), former-trafficker (Willy Leyman), and a wealthy retiree (Ted Reynolds) to assure future operations are more successful. The next field operation goes a little smoother as Rhonda and her team follow human-traffickers from Bucharest to Paris to capture the bad guys and rescue kidnapped children. However, Trey discovers that his adaption by rich Texans has masked deep personal feelings for the Central European orphans he’s rescuing. He was one of them. The next mission involves the leading trafficker in the world, known as the Godfather, who ships millions of poor Bangladeshis to Malaysia for slave labor and the sex-trade. The team goes to great lengths to capture the Godfather in a brothel in Teknaf, Bangladesh. But the mission takes its toll on Lin, who relives her TV reporting of the devastating 2013 fire in a garment sweatshop that killed over one thousand underpaid laborers, many of them children, so Westerners can buy cheap clothes. Lin feels the full emotional weight of personally responsibility. The team returns to the states to fight human trafficking here. The target is a madam known as Tencha, the ringleader of the largest human trafficking ring in Texas history. Tencha earns millions by smuggling young, pretty, illegal aliens from Mexico and locking them in rooms behind a bar in Houston. But Rhonda’s past is revealed when she finds that one of the victims is a very young girl. Rhonda collapses. In the hospital, Rhonda’s own history of abuse unfolds, but she recovers more determined to attack a beast that got away: Mbeetu. Rhonda devises one final mission to bring Mbeetu to justice, save twenty additional young girls, and rescue Tewdros for a second time. Using disguises and cunning, she and her team are successful. Now the long process of healing begins. Our story ends with sad reminders. The human-trafficking cases were real. The industry flourishes with high demand for cheap garments, food, electronics, and the sex-trade around the world. There is no “Rescue Team” or “Rescue Me Twice Ranch,” but there should be.

Hi Partick, Thanks for connecting. I'm a screenwriter lucky enough to be mentored by EP Lee Levinson in New York. Lot's more to learn, but 10 camera-ready scripts up on this site, I hope show potential. Cheers, Tom.

Greetings from a stageplay/screenwriter who has written a stageplay-to-screenplay concerning an urban Native American motorcycle outlaw family and the spiritual redemption of its leader. The stageplay was successful; adaptation to film and television would certainly be. Please let me know if you are interested. I lived and taught horseback riding to the abled and disabled near your father's vineyard in Napa County, CA and am now doing the same thing in Montana, where there are more horses and people.

A while back I was working with an independent film director/producer/writer/actor. This person runs his own small film company. He had originally hired me to write one film for his company, then a second. After that we teamed up on some other projects. I had never done film work before, and my first contract with him specified that I wouldn't get payment for that first project until it was made. However, none of the projects I'd written for him, or that we'd worked on together, had been filmed due to his inability to acquire funding. Then, a year or so ago, I discovered that he was advertising a new project on-line. This project was the first film he'd hired me to write. He had teamed up with someone else, taken the ideas I created from the core idea he had given me when he first asked me to write the screenplay for him, changed the title and the character names, and was progressing with the project. He's never said a word at all to me about this, despite cutting me out of it, and running with my ideas and material. Any suggestions on what I should do? The "new" project is now listed in IMDB for a 2015 release. Do I have any recourse here, or am I just screwed?

thanks for the connect
