Hey, as an aspiring screenwriter, I love Jeff Nichols films. Take Shelter’s script was nothing short of brilliant. I can’t wait to see MUD. love the trailer. In fact, I’d go out on a limb and say that Jeff is one of the most inspiring filmmakers out there. A big influence on my work! Check out Quebec filmmaker Sebastien Pilote’s work,’Le Vendeur” and “Le Dementelmente” he’s a Canadian version of Nichols.

[…] All that to say, if your desire is to work in feature films or TV and you’re not doing so there are 1,000s of other opportunities out there for you to gain valuable production experience—and to make money to pay your bills. And you get the bonus to meet and work with plenty of production people who have like-minded goals that you do. (Go back and read the ’09 post Beatles, Cody, King and 10,000 Hours.) […]
