    I agree!!!! It is so inspiring to listen to a writer of his talent, ability and stature, open up on his fears, insecurities! Awesome! This lecture makes the world a little better for all screenwriters!

    I so enjoyed every minute of this lecture... (and I hate lectures)... but this was a Revelation... it was like someone on stage, saying a poem, that speaks right to your heart... You not only feel the words, you can close your eyes, and be one with the characters.... "Thank YOU" for sharing this wonderful video... Excuse me, while I watch it again...

    WELL? That's just what happens when you work for somebody else! The story of being the creator who gets blamed for following the guidance of his boss, who turns out to be wrong, is NOT all that unusual for anyone who has ever had a boss. It has happened to me and I write software for a living.

    was this a result of psychedelic enlightenment? It's seems like it might be.
