Amy Poehler: I'm a Cool Mom!

Going to need a reader soon, ideally someone who has NOT read THE LOCKSMITH before. Made some changes that I think make more sense for the story, but I feel like going in blind might be a better way for me to gauge success. Let me know if you'd be interested, or are looking for a swap! #Scriptsky

I keep wondering what the script for Daredevil single take fight sequence reads like, the details of action lines, or the lack of it! (Same with the Oldboy scene and how Park might have written it down) #ScriptSky

Got to do my own comps for my feature, ALT+LVR. #Scriptsky Also, appreciate y'all jumping onboard-- the TL has been really fun today 🥳

Let's have some fun today, #Scriptsky! Pitch your script or WIP using two movie posters as comps.
