Today’s Writing Quote

“The way I did it is
every 5 to 10 pages, I wanted a big fist
to come out of the screenplay
and punch the reader right in the gut”

— Allan Durand

UPDATE: Remember this?

Well, here are some words of wisdom from R.M. Elliott accompanying the above photograph:

“You OUTLAWS rock but something to think about after FADE OUT… as OUTLAWS we must look for wisdom in the scars caused by edits and the calluses of the re-writes.”

By providing us a bridge to rewriting, today’s coveted Trumbo Award goes to R.M. Elliott!

Onward!
