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

Antagonist’s Name as Title
We all know “Batman”, “Bond”, “Mad Max” and “Rambo”. The catch to using a hero’s title or nickname is to make it cool. A title like “Henry” doesn’t say much and will likely be changed by a producer. Note: Producers change movie titles as often as they change their socks, so I wouldn’t advise a writer to ever become married to any given title. Extreme Screenwriting client Don Fiebiger’s “Border Run” was initially titled “La Linea”. The producer later changed the title to “The Mule” and this was later changed to “Border Run”. The final title was most likely changed by the distributor because a distributor knows they need a catchy title that quickly draws in an audience.
Austin Matelson – The Hero’s Name as Title
Does the title present a visual of the story? That’s why I mentioned staying away from titles that sound like novels because they rarely paint a visual picture. Instead of “A Lovely Day Falls Apart” (novel title) – the writer might come up with a title like “Fatal Attraction”.
· An ACT ONE of roughly 30 pages or 30 minutes
Austin Matelson – Movies generally follow a three-act structure. That means that a 110-page script (and that’s 110 minutes of screen time – a script page is equal to one minute of film time) — is broken into:
Okay! Now that we have our own master lists and premises, and a hint of the vast variety of story patterns that are available to us out there to use, we are going to step back and talk about basic filmic structure. No matter what KIND of story you’re writing, and no matter what genre it is, it’s almost certainly going to follow this basic storytelling structure, so we need to be clear about that right away.
