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

Being out-of-style can hurt a writer’s chance at a sale, but there are other common mistakes to avoid. Here are a few of the most common mistakes I see again and again:
Mark Pellegrino – Format Mistakes
Will your script be tossed into the slush pile if you’ve used one of these out-of-style techniques? No, but being aware of what’s acceptable format and what isn’t will make you look more like a pro and you won’t have to worry that your script will look outdated. Also, remember that in today’s economy producers are making fewer films. The aspiring screenwriter doesn’t want to give the producer any reason NOT to purchase the script. Think about this a minute. If you’re a producer with millions of dollars at your disposal and two good scripts are in front of you, are you going to pick the writer who’s a master at formatting or the guy who slopped it over? If you think the producer will pick the script based solely on the story, you’re badly mistaken. The producer has to work with this writer for months, even years to come and he’ll want the writer who’s proven he’s the pro. Therefore, the winning script is the writer who knows format!
This is also a good example of an EXPLAINING THE MYTHOLOGY scene. You often see this scene when the mission is convoluted or fantastical — such as in horror movies, sci-fi, fantasy — and the scene often includes the hero explaining the rules to an outsider. Here, it’s Indy and Marcus explaining the history of the Ark to the government guys. And they also explain that the Nazis want to find Ravenwood because he has a medallion that can be used to pinpoint the exact location of the Ark (Indy draws all of this on a blackboard, a SET UP for when we see him do for real it at the Midpoint). So we also get the whole PLAN of the movie in this scene, and we understand the medallion is the MACGUFFIN that all the different players are going to be chasing after.
Mark Pellegrino – And our HOPE is that Indy finds the Ark before Hitler does.
So we also get a glimpse of what Indy is up against: his real OPPONENT is the ultimate bad guy: Hitler and the whole German army.
These are the really huge STAKES of this story, and our FEAR: If Hitler gets the Ark, it will make the German army invincible. World domination = not good.
