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

-Jack was NOT emotionally strong enough to defeat the bomber until this point!
The bomber tricks the police and gets away with the money. (By this time Jack’s partner has died and the obstacles presented in Act II have forced Jack to change = Jack’s now the leader)
Christina Cox – PLOT POINT II
Jack must make split-second leadership decisions while dealing with obstacles after obstacles = he’s changing! (internal conflict)
This all goes to emphasize one of the main underlying points of this book: different genres have very different story structures, and you need to study and understand the classic tricks and expectations of your own genre. That’s why I so adamantly advocate creating your own, personalized story structure workbook. It goes without saying, but I’ll say it anyway, that if you think you might be writing a Mysterious Stranger story, then you should make a list of Mysterious Stranger stories, and take a look at the patterns of those stories and what other storytellers have done with them. It will give you no end of interesting ideas for your own story.
Christina Cox – James Bond and Reacher are also perfect characters in their ways (although, from a female point of view, perfectly infuriating). We don’t really want them to change. The trick to the Mysterious Stranger structure is that it’s the other characters that have the big character arcs in the story; for example, in Mary Poppins, the actual protagonist is Mr. Banks. However, in some Mysterious Stranger stories, the Stranger does have an arc as well. Emma Thompson had some fun with that — as the screenwriter and actress — in the film Nanny McPhee, based on the books by Christianna Brand. And of course, not all series detectives are perfect Mysterious Strangers, either; I myself am partial to the flawed ones, like Tess Gerritsen’s surly Jane Rizzoli.
I think it’s a little more complicated than that. I think a lot of classic series characters, especially series detectives — and of course Ian Fleming’s James Bond and his sexier modern incarnation, Lee Child’s Reacher, spring immediately to mind — are really examples of the “Mysterious Stranger” or “Traveling Angel” or “Knight Errant” archetype, and Mysterious Stranger stories have their own story structure. Mary Poppins is the classic Mysterious Stranger; she pops in (get it?), fixes the family, and pops out, while remaining herself “Practically Perfect in Every Way.” Shane is a great film with a Mysterious Stranger structure, although Shane is a much more wounded Stranger than Mary Poppins: he’s very imperfect, unable to change, and therefore unable to integrate into society in the end — but he does fix the town’s problem and the wound in the family that temporarily takes him in.
In terms of character arc, series hero/ines are a different animal than standalone hero/ines. One theory is that readers who are devoted to a series character really just want to see the same person, over and over again.
