rmncwrtr Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 angst-ridden neurotics seeking affirmation?  Nope. Just highly skilled individuals seeking compensation for work being delivered by new means/technology.  Okay, here’s the direct quote from Richard Walter’s book: The story is told of director Frank Capra, who was asked in an interview to explain precisely how he achieved that special quality known as "the Capra touch." For page after page he rambled on about this technique and that one. At great length he discussed how he had lent "the touch" to this film and to that one. And in all of these pages nowhere was mentioned Robert Riskin, who had merely written the films. The day after the interview appeared in the press, there arrived at Capra’s office a script-sized envelope. Inside was a document very closely resembling a screenplay: a front cover, a back cover, and one hundred and ten pages. But the cover and pages were all blank. Clipped to the "script" was a note to Capra from Robert Riskin. It read: "Dear Frank, put the ‘Capra touch’ on this!"   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmncwrtr Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 it's a Woody Allen quote  Ah, never heard it. But from what I remember of the two movies of his I've seen years ago, he is a neurotic writer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmncwrtr Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 it should be interesting the see the content coming from the writers minds after stewing for however long that was. Â Expect to see some good "original" movies coming out in the next two years. A lot of TV writers finally could work on that movie screenplay idea they never had time to write due to production schedules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couloir Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 I'm looking forward to having Mad Men and Curb your Enthusiasm back on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmncwrtr Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 I'm looking forward to Heroes. Hopefully they can redeem themselves from the lame last minute alternate ending they did because of the strike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
