Makin' a Movie
The words are comin' back. Last night, on the way home from watching Dreamgirls something clicked. The first several scenes of a potential movie version of "Delightfully Ever After," the story I intended to convert to screenplay over break, sprang to mind. The hours between 8:00 and 10:30 dissolved away as I rushed to record these first bits in "treatment" mode.
Will it ever become a movie? God knows. I feel so inadequate to the task. But if I don't try, I will already have failed, and I will always be saying, "What if?" after I graduate.
I see bits of it already. It could work. It really could.
