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

Each scene, no matter how long, has its own index card. I usually end up with about 60 + index cards. By doing it in this simple, straightforward step-outline approach, I can instantly see where there are gaps in the material. I can also easily recognize scenes that don’t work and even shuffle scenes, if necessary.

EXT. HOUSE – DAY
Plays were the form of storytelling for thousands of years because most of the populace of any country couldn’t read, and there was no television yet. So, until the invention of the Gutenberg press (1436, and yes, there was moveable type in China in 1041, but it wasn’t used for mass production and didn’t have the world impact that the Gutenberg press did), which made the printed word available cheaply, plays were the entertainment (music and sports are different media). The novel wasn’t even invented until — well, that’s up for debate, but anywhere from 1007 to 1740: you can Google “Candidates for the world’s first novel” and decide for yourself.
Beau Bridges – Well, yes. But if you look at Elizabethan plays, their Acts I and II constitute what we’ve been talking about as Act One, their Acts III and IV comprise our Act Two, and Act 5 is Act Three (shorter than the others, which the third act almost always is).
Now, wait a minute, you may be saying. Shakespeare’s plays have five acts.
That basic three-part rhythm of storytelling was set into a standard form by the ancient Greeks and is still largely the same today, not just in plays, but in all dramatic media.
