Screenwriter's Journey: November 2008
http://screenwritersjourney.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
The road we take when we embark on a life of letters, movies, and screenwriting. Saturday, November 29, 2008. Rainbow's Edge - Part 1. After dad announced in no uncertain terms he couldn't cough up the large for NYU fall semester in 1974, I met with undergrad film chair Haig Manoogian and delivered the bad news like an Al Qaeda chieftain after 48 hours of Mossad interrogation. Haig was visibly rattled as he shook his head, waving his cigarette about, "This is not good, Bruce. Not good at all.". I hastily...

Screenwriter's Journey: Raconteurs, Chain-Smokers, and Dramaturgy at NYU - Part 2
http://screenwritersjourney.blogspot.com/2008/11/raconteurs-chain-smokers-and-dramaturgy.html
The road we take when we embark on a life of letters, movies, and screenwriting. Wednesday, November 5, 2008. Raconteurs, Chain-Smokers, and Dramaturgy at NYU - Part 2. The spring semester of my second year at NYU, I signed on for the Advanced Screenwriting Seminar. There was nothing typical about this class. It had only a handful of students (around 6-8, I think), including an NYU film production teacher, Barry Sherman, shocking unto itself. When I saw Barry I knew this would be a worthwhile cla...The c...

Screenwriter's Journey: The Phoenix and the Vortex - Part 2
http://screenwritersjourney.blogspot.com/2008/11/phoenix-and-vortex-part-2.html
The road we take when we embark on a life of letters, movies, and screenwriting. Friday, November 14, 2008. The Phoenix and the Vortex - Part 2. On the mean streets of Flushing, Queens I had become the easy scapegoat prey of immigrant junior Aryans, struttin' home boyz, and San Juan-ites who were anxious to deflect the non-stop assault on their peoples and re-focus it on the skinny, big-eared, funny looking, crew cut Jap kid who skulked Parsons Boulevard like he "f-ckin' owned the motherf-cker! As fast a...

Screenwriter's Journey: September 2008

The road we take when we embark on a life of letters, movies, and screenwriting. Thursday, September 25, 2008. High School Film Daze - Part 2. In 9th grade I decided to graduate early. I was totally bored in high school, easily got straight-A's, and kind of went berserk. In my new persona at Teaneck High, I played rhythm guitar in 2 rock bands: one was the. Jimmy Durango and the Polka Pirates. There were so many, I can't remember them all (shame on me again). A babe in the woods, a fish thrown into the f...

Screenwriter's Journey: October 2008
http://screenwritersjourney.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
The road we take when we embark on a life of letters, movies, and screenwriting. Friday, October 31, 2008. Raconteurs, Chain-Smokers, and Dramaturgy at NYU - Part 1. Okay, I made the decision to focus on screenwriting by winter of my second year at NYU, this due to a series of lugubrious mishaps, misfortunes, and miscalculations, but certainly hammering those mercilessly learned life-lessons we are ever-so-reluctantly forced to endure at the most inopportune of times. What can I say? Sex'n'drugs'n'rock'n...

The road we take when we embark on a life of letters, movies, and screenwriting. Monday, November 10, 2008. The Phoenix and the Vortex - Part 1. I can take some time off to sew some cowboy seeds, bum around like Kerouac and Kesey, earn some cold hard large, take some girls on some non-Dutch dates, pray I get lucky, and finally focus on screenwriting. Hasta la vista, maricone. Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore. Directed by Marty Scorcese (a bizarre twist of fate and lost opportunity that haunts me like a wr...
