FILM COMPANY RESPONSE TO "HEAVEN'S MANDATE"
Hey all,
I called up a contact today at Jerry Weintraub Productions. She said her company has to pass on my Chinese Joan of Arc script, BUT I can approach her when I have a script appropriate for Warner Bros.
Woohoo!
So I've got two companies, Tapestry Films and Jerry Weintraub Productions, which I can approach with a romantic comedy I'm getting set to redraft later this year. I wrote the first draft in the UCLA Professional Program under screenwriter Alex Metcalf. It's called "Twice in a Lifetime."
Logline: A widowed man and an engaged woman seek their perfect match with one another.
When it's ready, I'll send it out to all the major contests in 2007 along with "Heaven's Mandate," and an American "Master and Commander" script I've dubbed "Stars and Stripes Forever."
Now I have to hook "Heaven's Mandate" up with a film company that'll want to do it whether in Hollywood or Hong Kong. Winning in the top contests next year will help.
Looking forward to putting my screenwriting cap back on when I'm through with my fiction.
Later.
