Are you working or living near Burbank, CA? Let’s connect and meet for coffee! And, if not, just connect with me, then private message me. I’m a producer for film & television; and a paid entertainment career coach; fundraising consultant ; publicist; and writer (from Burbank, CA). I am always looking for new people I can help and meet with and work with. I would love to help you find a job, visibility or funding. I have gotten some great projects here now underway and am seeking additional projects to join as a producer to help increase their funding and visibility. I am also looking for loglines of great stories to consider producing (only loglines, though, to determine if any interest----and note that all the projects & people I am working with seek to make the world a better place and are uplifting and inspiring). See my "desert island" film list in my profile here to know my tastes. I am also an entertainment industry career coach. Whether you're looking to create greater success in your entertainment career or find greater visibility or funding for your project, I would love to help you (if I can) by meeting with you for half an hour or so in the afternoon or early evening soon over coffee at my local Starbucks near Warner Brothers in Burbank, CA to help you with your projects and/or career...

John, we have two favorite movies in common: Star Wars (the very first one) and It's a Wonderful Life. As a film student, I always liked Jimmy Stewart and his movies. Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, etc.

Hey, I'm also a fan of "It's a Wonderful Life. I also like Jimmy Stewart in the "The Shootist".
Great cinematic taste, Jeanie!!!
Jeanie: Note what one critic said, though: "James Stewart only agreed to play a cameo role in the film because John Wayne had specifically requested him. His short time on the film proved to be trying. The bad acoustics of the huge, hollow sound stages worsened his hearing difficulties, and he stayed by himself most of the time. He and Wayne muffed their lines so often in the main scene between them that director Don Siegel accused them of not trying hard enough. Wayne's reply was a variation on an old John Ford line, advising the director, "If you'd like the scene done better, you'd better get a couple of better actors." Later on, the star told friends that Stewart had known his lines, but hadn't been able to hear his cues, and that in turn had caused his own fumbling. Because Stewart's movie career had ended several years before, he was only paid $50,000 for his part."

Hi John! A month or so ago I got a sweet email from you inviting me to get in touch! Well, I'm moving to LA with my family next week, and I will contact you as soon as I get a car and find a place to live. I look forward to opening new vistas!
Great, Tad! Good luck with the move!

You know John it is events like this that can make a film. As far as John Wayne was concerned; wasn't comments like this that made him who he was?
Jeanie: Yes, indeed! BTW: I met John Wayne as well once. They both were a lot in person like they seemed on screen!
I'd appreciate the chance to learn from you though I don't live in California.
Hi John, thanks a lot for the invite! What you're offering is really great!! I'll get back to you early next year when I move from Paris to LA. Meantime, I wish you all the best! ;)
