Christopher Keane quote about the Screenplay…

2 04 2008

“In Hollywood, the story gets you in the door. The first question a producer asks is not who the movies’s about but what it’s about. A compelling story gets you into the room, strong characters keep you there.  Without a strong story to guide them your characters though they may be fully developed, will wander aimlessly around until the producer yawns and thanks you for your time.

–Christopher Keane, Novelist and Screenwriter

A wretched soul, bruised with adversity,
We bid be quiet when we hear it cry;
But were we burdened with like weight of pain,
As much or more we should ourselves complain.
