A Detailed or Not So Detailed Look at the Writing Process

IMG00088.jpg
Here I am, writing in long hand...for the first time in my life...now you can copy my handwriting and forge some documents on my behalf.

This is from the movie I'm writing for producer Anne Gately and director Paul Mercier in Ireland.

Beck + Dangermouse = Chemtrails

"Chemtrails" by Beck, off the new album produced by Dangermouse

Dov Davidoff

There was a point, long ago - okay, maybe a year and a half ago - where Tim and I thought we were going to be making comedies for the rest of our lives. Then, we happened to try adapting a novel that wasn't funny at all, in the slightest. In fact, it was a dark action movie...Matrix-like they'll probably say if it ever gets made or is even ever offered up for sale. People seemed to enjoy what we did with that...not so much when it came to the comedies.

So here we are, writing movies with aliens, and black magic, and warriors (not that those things can't be in comedies...).

I mention this because I wanted to say that Dov Davidoff is my favorite comic on the planet, and if I was ever going to produce a comedy I would try and produce one where he could be the lead. I saw Dov at the Comedy Cellar in NYC two or three summers ago. He walked out on stage, looking and acting like an angry, paranoid, confused drunk...and what I watched wasn't just stand-up comedy, it was a performance. Since then I've had the pleasure of meeting him and seeing him live on one other occasion - at the Laugh Factory, with Michael Richards, one week before the...well, you know - and I'll stop trying to say positive things because it makes me sound disingenuous.
