After all, a story is a story, and who cares if you absorb it through movies via optical input or movies via words written on a page? I love both.<BR/><BR/>At one point in my career I listed the stories that moved me the most and those themes within them that captured my heart. Funny, but most of them ended up coming straight out of movies. One of these days I'll post that silly old list. Now that I think of it, I believe it was just before I wrote the second version of Double Forte. Ha. Seems like just yesterday, but it was seven years ago.Aaron Paul Lazarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06117814221437165664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6001825743960552008.post-40348216208760844922008-07-03T07:09:00.000-04:002008-07-03T07:09:00.000-04:00yay! i have wanted to see this movie but have been...yay! i have wanted to see this movie but have been saving it for this weekend (traditional thing with the fam)and now you gave me every great reason to do so!Kim Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13933746166088034102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6001825743960552008.post-48531407562515304272008-07-01T20:13:00.000-04:002008-07-01T20:13:00.000-04:00I really liked this post, SW. I saw the previews ...I really liked this post, SW. I saw the previews and have it on my list to see (see, I don't live under a rock after all).<BR/><BR/>Being a part of a generation that grew up with television and movies, I can't imagine not being influenced by film as much as by the written word. On the other hand, writing has heightened my awareness of both. I find myself watching a movie and checking for subplots and the other things we need to include in our writing. <BR/><BR/>One of my favorite is Bogart and when I write my Sam Harper, I can't help but hear Bogie's voice.Marta Stephenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14126647102399666578noreply@blogger.com
