Contract Restrictions

I’ve heard from a female Hollywood movie screenwriter (who wrote the story of “When Harry met Sally“? Nora Ephron), that she at first was asked to sign a contract, that the story must be acceptable for girls aged not older than thirteen. The Hollywood film makers try to reach all generations to have a big profit. But that is a restriction for too many adult topics. It makes the communication childish.

Let us hope, that the blood shed will soon have an end. A shocking rough reality, for sure not a topic for the dream factories in Hollywood, Babelsberg and Bollywood.

P.S.:
actually Angelina Jolie took the risk to produce a movie about the war in Serbia – I fear there will be no great interest in the USA
