motion-pictures

A picture may be worth a thousand words, but those well-arranged words are worth a multi-million-dollar motion picture.

If these Mount Everests of the financial world are going to labor and bring forth still more pictures with people being blown to bits with bazookas and automatic assault rifles with no gory detail left unexploited, if they are going to encourage anxious, ambitious actors, directors, writers and producers to continue their assault on the English language by reducing the vocabularies of their characters to half a dozen words, with one colorful but overused Anglo-Saxon verb and one unbeautiful Anglo-Saxon noun covering just about every situation, then I would like to suggest that they stop and think about this: making millions is not the whole ball game, fellows. Pride of workmanship is worth more. Artistry is worth more.

Hollywood's Studio Era was part of a Golden Age because it didn't need profanity (unlike reality-television today)

Avoid the tyranny of the reasonable voice...it will guarantee a complacency of never trying anything adventurous...

I write from the heart and do not edit and edit ... my works (music or writing). Although most writers do, and as I read their works its impossible for me to believe that they either talk or even think like that.
