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

The review process requires planning to be successful. This plan should include who reviews the material, how many reviews to get, determining what to change and what not to, a timeframe, a plan for making modifications and hiring an editor to help polish the script.
2) You’re looking for validation and Hollywood isn’t a place you’re likely to find it because one person will hate your script and the next one will love it.
Zoë Bell – 1) You’re not being honest with yourself. Should the material be shelved?
-Other screenwriters have had their script on the market for several years and still continue to get reviews and make changes. It seems like an endless process. Writing is definitely about rewriting, but there has to come a point where you’re confident enough in the material to proceed to market. If you’re not confident enough about the material and continue to get review after review then one of two things is happening:
[2.00] Jake calls Cross, saying he has the girl. He wants to meet at the Mulwray estate. At the estate, Gittes confronts Cross with his crimes. Cross admits his culpability with the water diversion and real estate scam: “Either you bring the water to L.A., or you bring L.A. to the water!” and also with his daughter (“Most people never have to face the fact that at the right time, the right place, they’re capable of anything”) and Mulwray’s murder, but he has no remorse. When Jake asks him why he’s doing it, he says he’s buying the future. Mulvahill steps out with a gun, and Cross forces Jake to take him to “the girl,” saying ominously, “I want the only daughter I have left.” (All of this is the ANTAGONIST’S PLAN.)
Zoë Bell – [1.54] Jake puts his PLAN of escape into action. He calls Walsh and Duffy and tells them to meet him at the butler’s house in two hours, or come find him in jail if he doesn’t show up. Escobar arrives at the house, and Jake pretends they both missed Evelyn; he says he suspects she’s fled to her maid’s house in San Pedro (a long drive, which will give Evelyn and Katherine a big head start). Escobar insists Jake go with them to find Evelyn. In San Pedro, Jake asks to go up to the house and have a moment with Evelyn alone; Escobar gives him three minutes. A woman with a black eye opens the door (the wounded eye again, and also part of the motif of violence against women). When she lets Jake into the house, we see Curly, the client from the first scene, and realize this is his cheating wife. Jake is calling in the favor Curly owes him (PAYOFF) — he wants Curly to drive him to Chinatown, and then take Evelyn and Katherine to Mexico by boat. Jake successfully evades the police by driving away with Curly. This is all a hugely clever plan of Jake’s that make us HOPE that he’s actually going to get away with all of this and save Evelyn and Katherine. And since the film ends tragically it’s important to provide this sense of hope so that the actual resolution will be that much more disastrous.
