Hitchcock: Organic

Jimmy Stewart in REAR WINDOW uses a camera to defend himself... He's a professional photographer, what else would he use?



I have a whole article on this, written for Script Magazine about a decade ago, called Hitchcock's Chocolates that gets into using the character and story to find all of the details of your screenplay. It always goes back to character - any question or problem you are having with your screenplay - think character, theme, story... and you will find the answers.

IMPORTANT UPDATE:

TODAY'S SCRIPT TIP: Your First Ten Pages - and *emotionally involving* the audience, with those two NARNIA movies as examples.
Dinner: Sleep eating at someplace.
Bicycle: No. Did A-TEAM interview for Script on 2 hours sleep... no energy for bike riding.
Pages: No. I'm in the home stretch on this spec and just too tired yesterday to do anything.
