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

Secondly, if a phone conversation cuts back and forth between two locations then YOU MUST establish both locations then indicate INTERCUT and just write the dialogue. Here’s an example.
A note about extensions: Be sure to use the same extension consistently throughout the script. If you used (V.O.) for one phone conversation, don’t use (FILTERED) for another one later in the script. Consistency is the mark of a pro. Pick one and stick with it.

Besides the production number of the finale (in which Halloween Town citizens frolic in the snow that Santa has sent as a gesture of forgiveness), Jack and Sally’s final love song at the end is a REPRISE, another favorite trick of musical theater. A reprise is a great way to show Character Arc and a change in the hero/ine’s core philosophy or life outlook as the second or third version of the song changes in lyrics and tone/mood (often with key changes from minor to major) to show progression. The love song is the same as Sally’s lament in Act II:2, but the words change from “Some things will never be” to “Some things are meant to be.” Of course, this and the kiss out on the frozen wave under the moon show us their NEW WAY OF LIFE: happily in love.
Matthias Schweighöfer – “Finale” – Jack, Sally, Citizens of Halloween Town
Jack’s ALL IS LOST moment comes as he has been shot down from the sky by the police of Christmas Town and has fallen onto a cross in the cemetery (a sly visual parody of the Crucifixion). He sings (as he hangs from the cross!) that he has failed utterly at his attempt to take over Christmas. But in the middle of the despair of this song, he also finds a REVELATION: that he is good at exactly what he does, and he becomes excited about planning for the next Halloween. He races off with a NEW PLAN, to save Santa Claus and restore him to Christmas Town before it’s too late. He STORMS THE CASTLE again, this time Oogie Boogie’s castle, to fight Oogie and rescue Santa Claus and Sally in the FINAL BATTLE.
