How To Make A Difference In This Industry

I have been making and selling films for a long time. And I believe the answer is making films that are different, making them in a different way and marketing them in a different way. The powers that be are concentrating on product that they feel has a built-in audience. They feel they are hedging...

L. Tom Deaver

Welcome to Stage 32, Sarah. Yes, I'd love to hear your logline for LIMINAL and learn what kind of work you do in storytelling.

Big Movies

Hey, everyone. Hope you’re doing great. My name’s Maurice. I'm a screenwriter, ghostwriter, commercial writer, and pitch deck designer. I'm also a Stage 32 Lounge Moderator.

There are a lot of big movies coming out this year. What are you most excited to see?

Maurice Vaughan

I just looked up "The Zone of Interest," Robin Gregory. It does sound like it's really rough to watch. Movies like this drain me. I'm not sure if I'll watch it.

Scott Sawitz

Maurice Vaughan Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare is fun... it's like a second tier Inglorious Basterds.

Maurice Vaughan

Cool, Scott Sawitz. I see the similarities between those two movies. I didn't know "The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare" was a Guy Ritchie movie until just now.

Robin Gregory

I'm the same way, Maurice Vaughan. I can't even watch horror films :--).

Maurice Vaughan

I can watch Horror movies, Robin Gregory, but it's really hard to watch super gory movies like "Saw." I've only seen like two "Saw" movies.
