I agree with his assessments and applaud his courage. - Hollywood needs to work with the authors more instead of allowing screenwriters to manipulate stories to their sensibilities.

Next time you give a speech, start off with introducing yourself. It's something we do everyday and it calms you down with something familiar. Nerves aside your speech was very well written and I appreciate the information. 🤓

This shows us how important being confident is for popularity. The talk was informative but because of the execution it hasn't been seen by many people.

@angushorton7498 3 года назад

This guy did amazingly considering he's in year nine. Just needs to learn to be more comfortable with himself and that comes with experience. Great succint information delivered quickly and interestingly.

I'd be so nervous and crying. SO good for him! Okay, looking to do exactly this. Turn an erotic novel (may or may not be erotic), into an adaptation for film. I'm applying for a competition, and want to get more connections. Hit me up on my channel if you have information. I want to expand. I want to collaborate.
