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

These screenwriters often become upset. After all, they can name a dozen film characters who exhibit such extreme behavior; how dare the reader say their character isn’t believable.
The problem with extreme characters is many aspiring screenwriters attempt to write them without understanding how their presence works in a commercial realm. They simply introduce the character and their extreme behavior then get back reviews with comments like, “the protagonist isn’t believable” or is “over-the-top.”
Hugo Weaving – They’re our Personal Heroes
Extreme characters can give a script extra commercial edge because they’re characters who do things we all wish we could muster the courage to do.
All Marty wants to do is get his parents back together, and then get back to the future before he does too much damage. Mission accomplished, he returns… to find that every move he made in the past did influence his future — and much for the better. The house he returns to is huge and stylish, his parents are hip and happy, and the bully works for his father. It’s a wonderfully exhilarating ending and NEW WAY OF LIFE, surprising and delightful, and it works because every single moment was set up in the beginning.
Hugo Weaving – #NAME?
– The culmination of the allies’ subplots in the ensemble film Four Weddings and a Funeral. In the closing credits, we get a series of wedding photos of all the supporting characters on their future wedding days, with lots of fun visual jokes and payoffs throughout. Lesson here: it’s a total joy to see secondary characters and allies get their desires at the end too. This film made us love each one of the ensemble and want them to be happy; the photos of the wedding days of each are a rapturous payoff. Of course being able to enhance that feel-good feeling with Elton John singing “Going to the Chapel” really helps, but the point is, you as a writer need to be able to create that emotion on the page. Why not start collecting book endings that achieve it for inspiration? Stick them in your notebook so you’ll always have them to refer to.
I know, I know, a lot of dark examples. Okay, here are a few lighter ones:
