Get to know the writer:

1. What is your screenplay about?

Physical therapist Harry Goodman meticulously plans a romantic evening to propose to his intelligent and vivacious girlfriend Sandy. But what should be a seamless night of fine

dining and heartfelt commitment rapidly unravels into chaos as meddling rugby teammates, flirtatious coworkers, a jealous bouncer, and an unexpected armed robbery

sidetrack every effort.

2. What genres does your screenplay fall under?

Comedy- Screwball or Romantic.

3. Why should this screenplay be made into a movie?

Other than the obvious, "I love to see it with actors", I think we could use a fun, screwball comedy right now. Way too much superheroes and violence.

4. How would you describe this script in two words?

Fun time.

5. What movie have you seen the most times in your life?

Bunches of them, but "Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" is right near the top.

6. How long have you been working on this screenplay?

Originally conceived it in 2019.

7. How many stories have you written?

There's 1097 files in my "stories" folder. Now, some are iterations of the same script (V2, V3, etc), so, there's prolly about 750 different stories in there.

8. What motivated you to write this screenplay?

I just got to be friends with the characters, and wanted to spend time with them.

9. What obstacles did you face to finish this screenplay?

All the critiques of it from friends, contests and readers. It was a struggle to decide what was good advice and what the character's wanted to do. Bless them all- they were all positive, but re-writing is tough. It's the craft/work of the writing world.

10. Apart from writing, what else are you passionate about?

Animation. When I'm not writing, I'm animating.

11. What influenced you to enter the festival? What were your feelings
on the initial feedback you received?

I thought getting a reading of the scene was a great way to see if it "plays". And the feed back I got both from the festival and the reading was invaluable. I'll send my next script in, for that terrific reason.
