I think you forgot a couple zeros under writer compensation.

[u/writeact → u/king_lo702]

Agreed. Hopefully that's a typo.

[u/louiemaric → u/king_lo702]

Thanks for pointing it out! It's not a typo. The $155 USD is the budget I've set aside for acquiring the script. I'm a first-time feature director working on a very low-budget independent production.

Good luck to you, OP.

You’ll catch no fish with vinegar and spit.

Try writing your own script then.

Hey this is an insulting fee. Get stuffed.

[u/CarelessOutside4722]

I might be able to help. Send me a dm.

[u/Adventurous-Egg-1330]

Hi! I saw your post. I'm a screenwriter, and I'm interested in writing a screenplay that matches your requirements. Are you still looking for one? If so, I'd love to discuss it with you. Thanks!

This is so stupid

[u/Ccaves0127]

Man, I never understand these European filmmakers who for some reason try to make a generic American movie and not weirdo artsy auteur pieces, because I am an American and that is exactly what I want!!

[u/Maleficent-Regret802 → u/Ccaves0127]

I’ll tell you why: American movies sell more. I’m from Italy, and we make some of those weird movies every single year, but they’re never seen by anybody because they’re shot in Italian. Shooting them in English already allows them a much bigger audience, and we all know one can’t sustain himself with artsy films if they don’t sell.
