Irene & Caroline -- Please read: Do I Need an Agent? @ http://www.screenwritingforhollywood.com/connections/do-i-need-an-agent Having an agent is how you get actors on board and get a movie made; the agent makes those connections and tries to sell your script. Good luck! Irene & Jerry — This was a one time interview with Marc, unless he comes back here to read comments from time to time, please be aware that he may not see your comment.

He felt his life was ending only to find that life was just beginning. Conflict is with his only daughter and her expectations on how her father should conduct his life after the death of her Mother. I would love to send you my script for your review. Please contact me at [number removed]. Thank you. Irene Marc,

I'm a novelist who harbors desires to write screenplays, too. (I've finished the first draft of one feature film.) It always fascinates me to see the parallels between various creative fields. Movies and novels may be very different media, but on the business side, it's become much easier for indie authors to get published. Producing a movie on one's own is probably much more expensive, but similar, in that you don't get the backing of the industry big wheels. In publishing, indie authors don't have the gravitas and (small, but significant) promotional help authors with the big houses get. Either way, it takes real guts and determination to go it on your own. My hat's off to you, Marc! Great interview! I’m a novelist who harbors desires to write screenplays, too.

The one thing I see though is they somehow manage to get at least one well known actor attached to their projects - which would obviously help the success of the film. But how do they do it??? If you are an unknown screenwriter with relatively no credits to your name, how do you get a known actor to even read your script and then work on it with you???
