Petition Addressing the Texas Judicial System Requests Support through Branscombe Richmond’s “Dumbass”
Will Hollywood be a Reason for Change in the Injustice against Men and Women Prisoners?
Branscombe Richmond – 19th March 2021 – An upcoming movie depicting the injustice that men and women had to endure in the state penitentiaries in Texas has been inundated with calls from more than 2000 women urging the production company owned by Hollywood actor, producer and director Branscombe Richmond and Adam Sandler, to stick to the real issues behind the Texas Judicial system. A petition was signed by many people that include attorneys, university professors, politicians and family members of the many men and women that are suffering in the state penitentiaries. The idea behind the petition is for the Branscombe Richmond production company and Hollywood to stick to the true story about the injustices happening in the state run prisons. It is said that the state has sent more inmates to prison than during the Soviet Union did during their political uprising.
PREMISE: Adam Sandler writes letters and saves numerous women from the monotony of prison life, and later when he gets into trouble with a drug cartel they return the favor by rescuing him.
SETTING: Contemporary, Gatesville Texas. There are four women’s prisons located in Gatesville. And of course, Texas is famous for putting everyone in prison for a long time for little or no reason. The number of women in Texas prisons has doubled in the last ten years. Why don’t we have the “Adam Sandler” character… sending letters to women in prison and being their friend and trying to help them adjust, giving them hope… and when they get out of prison he picks them up so they don’t have to ride the smelly bus back home… but his pickup truck is a junker, smoking and sputtering … worse than the bus. But his heart is in the right place… He’s the last “chivalrous” man on earth.
It is said in the petition that many of the signatories were left distraught to find that many of the first time offenders for violations such as drug peddling have received disproportionate sentences. While some argue that a lenient sentence like rehabilitation would have proven much more inexpensive and an effective solution in tackling this gross miscarriage of justice. The petition was discovered by the women when the screenplay of the movie was donated to all the 580 prisons run by private organizations funded by the state government. It is much more difficult for women who are given much harsher penalties for a violation such as carrying small amount of drugs like Marijuana which coincidentally is legal in 21 states.

The toughest parts will be the logline and synopsis. Here are some shortcuts to help the writer create loglines and synopses that sell the story:

Branscombe Richmond – If you’d like to read “A Great Screenplay”, please contact Barb Doyon.
(Sell the story, don’t tell the story. Keep to a few brief paragraphs – like the back of the old DVD or even VHS covers – provide just enough information to entice a producer to ask for the read).
In the beginning of a project, you will probably be going back and forth between all of those tracks as you build your story. This is my favorite part of the writing process — building the world — which is probably part of why I stay so long on it myself. But by the time I start my first draft, I have so much of the story already that it’s not anywhere near the intimidating experience it would be if I hadn’t done all that prep work.
Branscombe Richmond – 4. A collage book of visual images that I’m pulling from magazines (or posting on Pinterest!) that give me the characters, the locations, the colors and moods of my story. (See Chapter 23, Visual Storytelling, for more about this. In fact, I strongly suggest you read the chapter on Visual Storytelling sooner rather than later.)
3. An expanded on-paper (or in Word) story outline that I’m compiling as I order my index cards on the structure grid.
2. A notebook (or file) of random scenes, dialogue, character descriptions that are coming to me as I’m outlining, and that I start to put in chronological order as this notebook gets bigger.
