Raymond Evtuch: Screenwriter in Phoenix, Arizona.

MAKING AMENDS is a Comedy/Dramedy that follows the journey of an aging action movie star who realizes success cannot truly be measured by material gains and adulation. Finally winning an Emmy Award after many decades of being dismissed as nothing more than an "eye candy" action hero movie star, Rick Hunnington, now in his early fifties learns he has a terminal illness with just under a year to live and decides to right many wrongs before it's too late.

The quick witted yet somewhat conceited Rick tries to reconnect with his once three best friends, that he deeply hurt and now despise him. To make amends he offers them each one million dollars to recreate the Route 66 road trip from Chicago to the Santa Monica pier they took when they graduated from college. At the same time, Rick receives a screenplay from an unexpected source that could give him the dramatic role he's been searching for his whole career... but is it too late.

Rick's "disappearance" after winning the Emmy has turned into a national story with the whole country getting constant updates from cable news and social media guessing his whereabouts. The sudden media exposure adds to the "over the top" adventure of four "fish out of water" friends, an Italian American movie star, a gay Jewish Pulitzer Prize winning journalist, a black six foot four ex-Chicago cop and a Chinese American financial analyst, across the rural Midwest, Texas Panhandle, Desert Southwest and sunny California. Each "Rick" sighting builds up to the trip's unexpected finish and life changing result.

Hi Raymond. I'm RB, Founder and CEO of Stage 32. As a screenwriter, producer, actor and filmmaker, I know first-hand the challenges all creatives face finding work, landing representation, launching projects, securing funding and simply making the connections that will make a difference in their careers. That's why I created Stage 32. Since our launch in September of 2011, the community has grown to 1,000,000+ members representing every country on the planet making Stage 32 the social network uniquely populated with the most creative people on Earth.

This is a network for you, built by you. Like most things in life, the more you participate, the greater the rewards. We ask all new members to pay it forward by inviting 5 fellow creatives to the network and by spreading the word of Stage 32 through other social media sites such as Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter. The more creatives, the stronger the network. The stronger the network, the more opportunities.

Thanks for joining the movement and for being a part of this most talented and inspiring community. I very much look forward to your contributions.

Thanks, and have a creative day!

RB
