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

In formatting there are several kinds of slug indicators; primary slugs, secondary slugs, dialogue cues and descriptive dialogue cues.
SLUGS
Sara Tomko – Another note regarding pacing: At the end of a screenplay, the scenes should become shorter and faster (regardless of genre) to create a sense that the story is wrapping up. This is an important format technique that is often overlooked by aspiring screenwriters.
Note: This style should only be used to create a sense that the scene is moving fast and to enhance the pacing. It should never be used to cheat the page count by expanding the script.
Another kind of character cluster is the Three-Brother or Three-Sister cluster. It’s used brilliantly in The Godfather, which modernizes the fairytale story of the dying old king with three sons, one of whom will take over the kingdom. The whole question of a story like this is “Which brother will win?” And of course, the youngest and least likely brother is the one who prevails.
Sara Tomko – Sense and Sensibility contains another character cluster: the polar opposite model. In this story we have two sisters: one all sense and the other all sensibility (passion). Each one needs to assimilate the qualities of her sister to be a truly balanced woman, wife, and human being, and we see those arcs play out in the story.
Another interesting cluster uses a more Jungian model. In The Wizard of Oz, Dorothy has to deal with external representations of her anima (inner woman) and animus (inner man) in the forms of Glinda and the Wizard. And Miss Gulch/the Wicked Witch is an extreme form of the destructive anima. In Sense and Sensibility, you see extreme forms of the destructive animus (in the form of the passive male relative, John Dashwood) and destructive anima (in the form of his bitch-on-wheels wife, Fanny). This pair makes a great villainous team I think partly because they are such archetypally warped forms of the animus/anima. A reader or viewer may not know anything about Jung but will still be able to recognize these characters.
You could say that Jake’s agency operatives in Chinatown are id and superego characters, but in that case, I think those two function more as Jake’s good and bad angels, two very different sides of his character. But maybe that’s a difference that’s apparent only to me!
