Show Date Change: It's a Good Thing

Episode #78, originally scheduled to air on Labor Day (9/7) has been bumped to the following week (9/14) to allow our listeners time to queue up the classic film we're reviewing (L'AVVENTURA, 1960), and to let the hosts adjust to another school year in their day jobs.

In the meantime, keep the feedback regarding DISTRICT 9 and 500 DAYS OF SUMMER coming, and send us your Last Five®!

A Screenwriter Who Hates to Write

Actress Natalie Portman and Venture Capitalist Christine Aylward have launched a new Web site called MakingOf, which features behind-the-scenes content from film industry insiders.

One of the highlighted videos today is an exclusive interview with Screenwriter John August who talks about what it takes to be a successful scribe in Tinseltown.

It always amazes me how the philosophies and methods of writers in the same industry can vastly differ.
