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

Joe must overcome his fears to live the life of his dreams.
But how? First, be sure the logline externalizes the story. Don’t write:
Brendan Fraser – I’m here to help you avoid this problem. It’s simple. If you’ve written a comedy, then the logline should make us laugh. If it’s a horror, the logline should make us cringe. If it’s a drama, it should create introspection. Get the picture?
Think about it. Do you have a friend who doesn’t like horrors or RomComs? Sure you do. Audiences tend to lean toward a favorite genre. Producers know this. It means genre is their #1 selling tool. If a logline doesn’t reveal the genre, why would they waste their time reading the script? By the way, most producers will assume if the logline doesn’t reveal the genre that it’s likely the entire script has genre issues.
But I can’t say this enough: whatever works. Literally. Whatever. If it’s getting the job done, you’re golden.
Brendan Fraser – Still, I don’t think it hurts to read about these things. I maintain that pantsers have an intuitive knowledge of story structure — we all do, really, from having read so many books and having seen so many movies. I feel more comfortable with this rather left-brained and concrete process because I write intricate plots with twists and subplots I have to work out in advance, and also because I simply wouldn’t ever work as a screenwriter if I wasn’t able to walk into a conference room and tell the executives and producers and director the entire story, beginning to end. It’s part of the job.
But that’s my process. You have to find your own. If outlining is cramping your style, then you’re probably a “pantser” — not my favorite word, but common book jargon for a person who writes best by the seat of her pants. And if you’re a pantser, the methods I’ve been talking about have probably already made you so uncomfortable that I can’t believe you’re still here!
Then I do layer after layer after layer — different drafts for suspense, for character, sensory drafts, emotional drafts – each concentrating on a different aspect that I want to hone in the story — until the clock runs out and I have to turn the whole thing in.
