Petition Addressing the Texas Judicial System Requests Support through CCH Pounder’s “Dumbass”
Will Hollywood be a Reason for Change in the Injustice against Men and Women Prisoners?
CCH Pounder – 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 CCH Pounder 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 CCH Pounder 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.

About CCH Pounder’s “Dumbass” Movie
The movie “Dumbass” revolves around the protagonist writing letters to prison inmates to keep their spirits high during their time in prison; only for them to help the main character who gets into trouble with a drug cartel and saving him at the end. The petition urges the production company, CCH Pounder and Adam Sandler to take this issue seriously due to the hardships faced by women inside prison rather than making light of the situation for their own profits.

But what about all those great letters Warren wrote to the boy and that final scene where Warren receives the hand-drawn picture? Should they be eliminated? For a first sale the answer is YES because the overall plot would require visualization to work as a first sale.

CCH Pounder – Examples:
First off, the voice over (V.O.) – all of it – would need to be eliminated. The screenwriter would have to find visual ways to present what’s spoken in the voice overs.
In the next few chapters, I’m going to talk more in depth about what goes into a protagonist and antagonist, so if you’re impatient to move on to Elements of Act Two, that picks up again in Chapter 12.
CCH Pounder – Harry Potter walking through that brick wall into Diagon Alley in the first Harry Potter. Folding up Paris and the zero gravity fight in the hotel corridor in Inception. The goofy intergalactic bar in Star Wars. In The Wizard of Oz we have Munchkinland, the Scarecrow’s cornfield, the dark forest, the poppy field, the Emerald City, the witch’s castle. These things often cost millions to shoot in a film, but we authors have unlimited budgets (our imaginations!) to create spectacular locations and visuals and action scenes. Even a party scene or a night out in a club can be as lush and beautiful (or edgy and exciting) as you dream it can be. Any filmmaker would kill for the freedom to do what we can do with setpieces, so please, be grateful and take full advantage!
If you start watching movies specifically to pick out the setpiece scenes, you’ll notice an interesting thing. They’re almost always used as act or sequence climaxes. They are tent poles holding the structure of the movie up … or jewels in the necklace of the plotline. The scenes featured in the trailers to entice people to see the movie. The scenes everyone talks about after the credits roll.
But let’s cover the basics right now. There are multiple definitions of a setpiece (or set piece — both versions of the term are used). It can be a huge action scene like, well, anything in The Dark Knight or Inception, that takes weeks to shoot and costs millions, requiring multiple sets, special effects, and car crashes … or a meticulously planned suspense scene with multiple cuts that takes place all in — a shower, for instance, in Psycho.
