When the story isn’t landing
Something isn’t
quite landing.
Maybe the structure works, but the emotional journey doesn’t.
Maybe the character is compelling, but their choices don’t yet feel inevitable.
Maybe the screenplay explains what the film should allow us to experience.
The work starts by understanding the film you are trying to make — and what is keeping it from reaching the page.
A director’s eye on the screenplay
“I don’t read a screenplay only as a piece of writing. I read it as a film waiting to happen.”
