Happiness vs. Reality
Went to my second New York screenwriters Meetup. The script under discussion had the theme of ‘Being happy is more important than knowing the truth.’ An uncompromising first draft that has the heroine fool herself into not believing the truth in order to be happy. You can download the script from the home page for the group if you’re intrested.
Didn’t stay as long this time but heard some interesting ideas: a murder-mystery featuring screenwriters, a modern faith-based animated epic for adults and a Sci-Fi spectacular set in The Sun.
‘Jerusalem Idol’ will be the script under discussion at the next meeting.
