I would love to work with Nicky Katt, for he is genius.

NICKY KATT in Soderbergh’s FULL FRONTAL:

In response to the quandary “we need to find a new Eva Braun”

You know what? Fuck her. And here’s why. One, anyone who’s offended by drinking blood, obviously doesn’t drink blood. Two, anyone who drinks as much blood as I do knows it has no effect. Three, there is absolutely no scientific connection between drinking a shot of blood a day and being an extraordinary actor. And four, it is impossible to prove Number Three.

NEW MOVIES

Trying to raise the money to make the next movie. Got the script. The cast is going to be no problem. Just need a bit of dough…

RECOIL

Just working on the Director’s cut. Will be ready very soon!

A NIGHT FOR DYING TIGERS

Working on getting it delivered to all the folks who are waiting for delivery.

VAMLET

Picture is damn near locked. Audio is pretty rough. Waiting for new RAM and software for the computer.

TEXT

Writing LOTS of new stuff, and I mean lots. It would be nice to take a little trip and finish off some scripts, but things are pretty busy around here.

OTHER STUFF

While we transition to a cleaner (non-wordpress) site, if anybody needs to buy DVDs of The Ennead, You, Me, Love, etc…please email Cinemanovel Films at:

cinemanovel (at) gmail (dot) com

Cast read through later today.

Chicken-scratched homemade stick-people storyboards.

A few roles still up in the air.

Ready to get shooting on Monday!

Week three of PREP on RECOIL is in the books.

We go to camera on the 18th. Wow.

Working all weekend to get my preliminary shotlist looking more like a realistic shotlist. More meetings on Sunday.

I’m excited to get shooting!

Lesli Brownlee is ALISON in VAMLET

There are so many helpful blogs out there. I thought it might be nice to post a link to a good one every once in a while.

So, instead of the usual rantings and updates (although they follow)…

John August

Great tips and inspiration for screenwriters (working and aspiring).

WHAT IS NEW?

Writing, spec script went out. Fingers crossed.

Editing VAMLET, getting there…

Re-edit on THE RED ROOSTER, new music, shorter version. It’s a lot stronger now cut down from 84 to 74 minutes, and, with the Darling Music artists on the soundtrack, it actually feels more…grounded, somehow…the way the music of SOLARISTS works with the landscape is perfect.

Prep begins on RECOIL in two weeks!

Working on a bunch of new spec material.
