Screenwriter and director Shane Black encourages an audience of Minneapolis film and media students to remember their roots, but get out to Hollywood and pursue their dreams.
Alright, kids. If you're an ambitious screenwriter, it would be in your best interest to listen to everything Shane Black is saying here. He is basically explaining exactly what it takes to break in to the industry as a writer. In my opinion, Shane is nothing short of a positive hidden gem inside Hollywood. If you put your heart, soul and hard work into your writing, there is a good chance that your work will pay off. I wish all of the current and future screenwriters the best! Thx, Shane!
My mom saw this guy in an interview and said, "hey it's the guy from As Good as it Gets". I went and watched it and BAM there's Shane Black as a cafe manager lol
So many gems. "Go back to the process". Thanks for speaking so honestly and sharing the ups and downs of screenwriting. Enjoy listening to you and your work.
