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

A teaser can be used to help engage an audience in an otherwise drawn-out drama. For example, in the film Lolita rather than taking us through pages (minutes) upon pages of establishing a relationship between the characters, which could lead to boredom, the writer opens with a tidbit (a teaser) from an end scene. In the scene, the hero’s being chased by police. He has a gun and is covered in blood. That’s all we see, then the story starts. The teaser provides just enough information for the audience to sit through the next hour or so of drama to get back to the point where we find out how the hero ended up being chased by police.
An inciting incident sets up the story by establishing tone, mood, atmosphere and genre. While a teaser does this too, the teaser tends to leave out vital information. The teaser provides just enough tantalizing information to make the reader (or audience) want to watch to see what happens. Another difference is story page location. An inciting incident might take place on page 3, 9, 10, but a teaser opens the story on page 1. Another difference is the page length of each. An inciting incident can take pages to develop, but a teaser is limited to 1-3 pages. The teaser is providing a ‘taste’ of what’s to come. Finally, an inciting incident may or may not create suspense, but a teaser always creates suspense.
Maha Dakhil – I’d refrain from calling “The Teaser” the inciting incident. Why? Because I’ve read thousands of screenplay.biz/top-screenplays/" 786 target="_blank">screenplays with inciting incidents that weren’t teasers and I’ve read thousands of screenplay.biz/top-screenplays/" 786 target="_blank">screenplays that had an opening teaser without an inciting incident. What’s the difference? I’d say the difference is how the story’s information is revealed, how much of it is revealed and when it’s revealed.
THE TEASER
Good storytellers will find all kinds of ways to make the Ordinary World and Special Worlds both contrasting and thematic:
