“About a year ago I got really exhausted from reading bad scripts and I know that I am a writer and that I have stories to tell, so I thought, 'Let's do this!' So I'm co-writing a screenplay now with another screenwriter and loving it. Absolutely loving it. And I would like to be the producer on the project and of course the lead is me.” KnowsWritingYearsStoriesCoursesReadingProjectsYears AgoScriptsProducersExhaustedScreenplaysScreenwriters Author:Kerry Washington
“I worked in script development, many years ago, and read a lot of scripts. Between that and the scripts I've read as an actor, and I'm a writer as well, I think I have a pretty good sense about whether the bones of a story are there and whether the structure is intact.” ThinkingYearsWellsStoriesActorsDevelopmentYears AgoStructureScriptsBonesGood Sense Author:William Mapother
“Israel is the very embodiment of Jewish continuity: It is the only nation on earth that inhabits the same land, bears the same name, speaks the same language, and worships the same God that it did 3,000 years ago. You dig the soil and you find pottery from Davidic times, coins from Bar Kokhba, and 2,000-year-old scrolls written in a script remarkably like the one that today advertises ice cream at the corner candy store.” YearsTodayEarthNamesSpeakLanguageNationsWrittenLandBearsWorshipYears AgoScriptsIsraelCornersStoresBarsIceSoilCreamCoinsCandyIce CreamContinuityEmbodimentPotteryCandy Stores Author:Charles Krauthammer
“Fifteen years ago I knew I had to settle into being a mom and give them a normal life, which I never had. I was always traveling. I had tours. I wanted my kids to settle down, and we kind of did it together.... It was a bumpy transition. There was no director telling me what to do. No script, but I really enjoyed it. I even became president of the PTA. Doing the laundry was a meditative experience. Now, when I start to get nervous and stressed, I go in and start to fold towels.” GivingYearsKindKidsWantedTogetherPresidentMomDirectorsNormalYears AgoDown AndScriptsNervousEnjoyedSettlingTransitionFifteenFoldsStressedBeing A MomNormal LifeLaundrySettling DownFifteen YearsTowelsPta Author:Pia Zadora

“Years ago I was going to play Chet Baker in another movie and I really felt drawn to that character and the script is good and I met with Robert and we seemed simpatico and we developed. But I had a real passion for that role and that brought me deep into that film 'cause I got the sense that Robert Budreau was going to really let me be creative inside this part.” YearsRealPlayCharacterFilmPassionFeltCausesRolesCreativeMetsYears AgoLet MeScriptsBe CreativeBakersChet BakerSimpatico Author:Ethan Hawke
